you mean to say Custom ROM can get better signal?

i think even developers of that custom ROM themselves will tell you that you are hallucinating ..

Celcom

I also dont know because eventhough I put the prefered is 3G instead on 2G in network setting, Im not getting the 3G/H signal. Only when using that dialer thingy Im getting only 3G/H.

The real question is, since I pull out from /data/data using adb. Right now, manually hand copy back to /data/data.
But how exactly we able to access to /data/data?

Which apps should we use to copy?

to copy data back to phone, use "adb push <source> <destination on phone>", i.e.:



but unfortunately, things in /data/data are mainly used by Application. so, by simply copying everything back will not restore the setting in your app such as game progress, saved files, SMS, settings.

so, you need to restore them 1 by 1 and chmod their folder respectively as per my previous post.

download the latest RC1 or RC2. some early feedback on the N5 is saying to stick with RC1 first, YMMV. the current one in playstore is not compatible with kitkat. need to enable root too. kitkat has changed the behaviour of how apps can access the batterystats. sven is using a workaround for now,but it works.

the apk is attached at the second post

[APP][2.1+] BetterBatteryStats - xda-developers

I'm using ART and damn my phone is flying. opening apps are almost instant. Only thing is whatsapp need to use old version from xda and wake lock detector cannot work.. others all fine.

wow. all can work. have u tried TiBa? if it works im flashing 4.4

I don't use TB so I can't comment but according to this website it doesn't.
http://www.androidruntime.com/list

not suppose to work. but if someone found a way, then only im switching. data loss is no good.

I switch to dalvik everytime I want to backup or restore using TiBU, and that's only when I switch roms

Alright I test it tonight when I reach home.

I just found that the Cynogenmod File Manager able to access the /data/data file and all file inside are visible too.

by the way, what is chmod those what? Google found answer but not quite understand.

with root access, any file manager (or ADB) can access /data/data

chmod - a command to change the access control of files / folder.

basically, /data/data contains all your stored preferences, saved game, data from various APP in your phone. for example, say you have an App i.e. GoogleHome.apk. When you install the App, the APK will be copy to /data/app/com.google.android.launcher-0.9.6.886092.apk

Each App in Android will be assigned an UID. To find out about that UID, just do "ls -l /data/app/"

Once you get it's UID, to restored it's preferences, saved files, etc. Copy the /data/data/com.google.android.launcher-0.9.6.886092 back to the phone. Then, you need to change the owner and permission of that folder and everything insider.

"chmod -R" allow you change the permission of that folder to the UID of that App and all it's folders inside. You may also need to use "chown" to change the owner. These are standard Unix command.

Alternatively, file browser such as Root Explorer allow you to change permission and owner via GUI without these commands.

Currently which latest custom rom you guys think is the most functional and stable? thx

I am using Purity rom + Semaphore kernel + wifi fix + ART so far very stable, speedy and most functions are working as intended

we can keep switching? my tiba is on scheduled backup, coz i got experience phone not booting suddenly one. o.o

anyone got problem with stock ROM [rooted] their airplane mode at the top setting not function?

I'm using ART runtime now. So far from all my regular apps only TB and Zombie Tsunami didn't work...

Oh no... my Kingdom Rush not work on ART wait further till the dev update the apps.

Tested the built-in screen record function of Kitkat. Now, recording gameplay could not been easier

Another thing that give me a pleasant surprise... for those who use Terminal / adb a lot will be delighted to know the shell now support auto completion! Thanks heaven!
