Noobie here so please be kind.
I have been reading posts for only a couple of weeks and was wanting to try tnt lite 4.2 but what I can't understand is it really needed after the OTA update. Is there any real advantage? I get the handango market and play "angry birds" just fine. I guess what I am asking is it still worth it?
I have install cwm but just wanted some input before I pulled the trigger.
I have not done it
I am using their stock ROM without any issues for the past month now. Switched to the classic home and it has been working great. Yaa there is no android market, but there are lots of other places to get apps and you can easily side load apps and they have been working great for me! I don't think I will be changing the ROM on mine (maybe if someone gets honeycomb going on it then I might reconsider).
Hope this helps!
I use stock 3588 with the enhancement pack. Stablest I have seen yet. Ran both Vegan and TNT Lite and liked them, but little intricacies caused my to go back. Sounds like there is an OTA in the works that looks pretty sweet.
TnT seems to be cooking up an update that, if released, will add a LOT of the speed enhancements that TNT Lite has had for the last 2 months.
You'd still want a custom ROM for full market, root, adhoc and a few other things - but I agree that TnT is getting better with each update they make. I hope that continues.
I'm also using stock with enhancement pack. Market is still somewhat limited as compared to my Droid 1 but you can side load.
Problem with side loading is the malware. Even GAM has been getting some nasty bugs. TNTlite has been very stable and faster. I ran stock until a week ago.
I just ordered one of these. I didnt do my research until after I bought it. I didnt realize it doesnt have the android market. So, I'm guessing it doesnt have the google apps either??? Like no gmail, youtube, etc?
Can you just get the market apk and side load it and have the full android market?

Is it possible to get the market on here on the stock rom, or does it have to be a custom rom?

No need for that if all you want is market. Either install the enhancement pack, whuch gives you market plus more, or get the GoogleServicesFramework.apk and Vending.apk and put them in /system/app.

It seems like that next OTA might be the one that gives a reason to upgrade, assuming the update doesn't have the problem w the boot thing.

Not my experience: enhancement worked, but very limited, moving to tntlite gives probably 80% vs 1%
Thanks I did install the enhancement pack and got the market up and running.
WHERe do you bet enhancement pack. Thanks all

Listen to me very carefully. It takes about 30 seconds of your time to fix the market.

And it starts! LOL the non researching 10k+ crew are probably flooding the xda as we speak trying to figure out why this thing isn't what they expected
I like to think of it as a Pinto engine in a Ferrari lol, You just need to swap out the rom with tnt lite or another great rom and you will be juuuuuuust fine. Most of all roms come with market prebuilt in. If you want to stick with stock Viewsonic 2.2... well then IDK what your thinking lol
is there a way to get Gmail contacts and Google Calendar without flashing a different rom. I plan on keeping the stock rom most likley BUT really want gmail-contacts-calendar sync with google . ( dont care as much about market as I sideload)
roebeet has done it again.. it has a working sounds, gapps, gsensor, wifi,
but no camera, i think if this will be fixed, it will be a beta..

Ive been following this build since 1.0a came out! Its been an amazing ride the past couple of days. Market working helps a million! I use it as if it was a full release. IDK if ill ever be able to go back to any other version of android! Bluetooth Keyboards sync up pretty fast with it too
Honeycomb improves the user experience on tablets greatly. At least from my experience with it.
Stunning
Best thing since Cyanogen, blown away by this. Can only get better..
Where is it?
Hi gang,
Would someone pleas post the link to download this rom?

needs the extra 50 megs borrowed from cache . For a while was up to 320 mb system but its using 205 out of 250 now.
sounds like if they ever get the browser and gmail to work reasonably well it will be time to take the plunge.
Roe, MrGuy, Clemsyn, DJ_Steve, Pershoot and all of the VEGA and Adam developers are amazing. This is very much a group effort over at SLD, which shows in the sheer amount of progress made on this port. Honestly, I woke up one morning to version 1.2, the next day to 2.0 and that night 2.1.
It's not quite ready for prime time, but I use it as a daily driver. No way I could ever go back now.
Working great so far...
I took the plunge and installed this and it looks great. I'm just going through my favorite apps to see what works and what doesn't. I'll update as I know more.
I just tested Video playback and the only thing that works of course is Moboplayer, but it works great, and even works on files that used on play without sound in Vegan 5.1.1 (they now have sound!).
Hey all,
I have tested every single third-party camera app out there and I personally found Camera 360 to be the best. Vignette runs perfectly on this phone but I honestly hate it. I don't see why people like this replacement so much.
Anyways,
I have used Camera360 a few days now and have tried really hard to get it stable. It simply isn't. It crashes constantly at any point during every single launch and use. And forget it if you happen to get a notification of any type! It will instantly crash and freeze the screen with error. Doesn't matter what type of app is sending the notification. It happens every single time.
I really love this Camera app as a replacement to the default app. Has many cool features. However, wondering if anyone with this phone has gotten it to work 100% stable?
I've tried everything and applied a number of changes and/or tweaks I found online but none help. After it crashes, if I go in and delete the cache from the application and launch it again, it work a bit better and much longer before it eventually locks up my phone again.
Any tips to get this working would be great!
Thanks!

kr3g3r,
Thanks for the comments. Anything special you had to do? Has it EVER crashed on you?
I just don't understand. Why? Well I tested it out when I got the phone, tested it after rooting and tested it again today after so many changes and heavy modification. Still highly unstable. The instant freeze and reboot when a notification comes in is super annoying.
Anyone else have an issue or some suggestions to get this working properly?
Thanks,
--mike
I also have no problems with Camera360, I just installed it and used it, didn't have any special config. Using TPC v3 on Rogers S2 LTE.
Total noob question, Camera 360 Ultimate?
For some reason I thought it was a paid app, if it's free I am in.
djtyres,
It is actually completely free!
The reason I posted this is because I did try all other options, including all the paid apps. I found this one to be the best.
Man, I wish it wasn't so damn unstable.
I am hoping that someone here can provide some sort of solution.

Did you try deleting and reinstalling the app? Camera360 runs perfectly on my Skyrocket (stock). Also, are you running if from the internal memory or have you moved it to the microSD card? And where is your default picture folder?
Hi Budge,
Yep...trust me...I have done everything. I uninstalled the app and went into all directories (I'm rooted) and found every single trace of it, including cache, and deleted everything. I then rebooted and re-installed. It was working fine for about 5 minutes and then it crashed again.
After some research, I found some who stated to go into app management and clear the cache. I did that and it still crashed.
As far as your other questions...
I install all my apps on internal memory only. I tried it with the default directory and with a custom path to the external SD card...still no luck man. It really is upsetting, considering just how many hours I have spent trying to fix this. That should tell you how much I really was impressed with it.

Thanks, already playing with it, had 2 crashes but only when I was messing with settings.
Crash...
LOL! See, I told ya so. I just can't figure it out.
Keep me posted...I'm curious as to how well it works for you.
If possible and you have some free time, test it the following way...
Load the app and start fiddling with all menus and all available features. In the process of doing this, take a few pictures with the new settings you chose and preview it and then go back quickly to main app and keep messing with it. Wondering if that will make it crash with you? As I stated, a very quick and simple test is to send yourself a notification of some sort (SMS, Email, App sync, etc.). Let me know if it survives! Notifications I have have both a ringtone and set to always vibrate.

I really like this app, been using it over a year now. Still running it on my SR with no issues. I'm rooted and running Sky ICS right now with Faux's kernel.
I see you have done a lot of clearing caches and this and that.... but have you tried fixing permissions thru Rom Manager? Every rom I flash, I make sure the first thing I do when the phone settles in, is fix permissions. Fixing permissions almost always solves any force close or crashing issues I may have. Even if I download a new app, I fix permissions to be safe. If you haven't tried this yet, hope it helps. Good luck....
yeah fixing permissions and clearing caches properly makes a huge difference when you flash anything.........but not just clearing caches in the app.....in CWM
also.......are you running any camera mods? and which rom?......or are ya stock?
Mine works as long as I do not change brightness.
The camera mods is a good thing to look into. I may be running ics camera apk

Hi,
Thanks for the info...
Yes, I've tried that on occasion. Do you do it from CWM? Or do you fix permissions on the individual app itself? I've done this through ROM Toolbox.
The think is I do not run custom ROMs. I have stock ROM modified and rooted to my liking. No custom Kernel either.
Camera360 is excellent on this phone....I use it as default...unless I want a specific metering....camera360 crashes on me when trying to choose metering...otherwise it works perfect...and the results are better than stock....one big bonus with camera360 is being able to choose ISO50 where stock app only lets you choose ISO100 as the lowest. And the ISO50 setting clearly works.

Damn, that comment didn't help much! LOL. I really want to get it working man. I think I have installed it over 10 times now. Still not stable. Also, any notification will freeze and crash the app. Does it run for you even after some kind of notification in background??
Also, curious why you would use ISO 50 with this camera though?

Lower ISO settings is best for when you already have plenty of light entering your sensor. You would use a higher ISO in low light conditions to make your sensor more sensitive to light thus giving you a faster shutter speed to help prevent blur. The trade off to a higher ISO is more noise in your image...the lower the ISO the less noise in your image but also a slower shutter speed....which is fine as long as you already have enough light.

Busybox
Hi
Just updated via OTA, reinstalled CWM_Recovery and installed superSU 0.99.
Phone is rooted once again but it seems like busybox is unable to install, tried a few different versions and none seem to stick, a few even causes a crash/reboot of the phone.
Have a few programs that are reliant on Busybox to function.
Am i the only one with this problem ?
I think the update is rubbish. If anything its not as smooth as the Ics update, project butter must be a vanilla only experience because there is no way it's buttery smooth

I'm really annoyed about the new keyboard layout which was an utterly unnecessary change. Not to mention that the keyboard is somewhat laggy. Apart from that it's fine and I could live with it if I would get back full root functionality.
By the way, has anyone solved their root issues (SuperSU, Busybox, and a couple other apps and tools not working) yet?

Nope I'm also having the same issues. After reading over the superSU thread it seems like HTC have done something to prevent system changes so it's basically a case of waiting until some devs find a work around
Is there an app to reorder the notifications in the notificationbar? I have 2 apps as trigger and new notifications are in the middle of these apps. I want new notifications at bottom.
Haven't got the update yet, but I'd like to know if they solved the touchbutton issue? And does USB OTG work now without extra cables? The only 2 things I'm missing.
Touch button issue is better so far but cannot say for sure that it is fixed, since now we have the Google now issue but not as frequently as before.
The new issue for me after the update is that the hands-free control is not customisable through apps after update, only single click function works for me, no track skipping or volume control

The worst update I've made on any phone....ever!
I need to downgrade ASAP, however, because I'm a relative noob and I'm unrooted I need some assistance. Any advice will be appreciated.
Just installed and had 10 minutes with it. To me my phone definitely seems a little quicker and more responsive, might just be me being excited about new stuff though! I use Swiftkey so never touch the Sense keyboard, I just gave the new one a quick go and switched back to Swiftkey, I can type on it almost as quick as a real keyboard so it would take something amazing to shift me from it. I like what I see of Google Now so far, we'll see how it pans out though. The camera changes seem good, fairly subtle differences but I think it's quicker too. I like the power saver mode, think that will be a useful one. Switching off data when the screen is off is a great feature.
So far, so good.

I am pretty fond of the new No-Lockscreen option. Something I have missed from the AOSP versions, probably the only reason I will stick with sense on JB.

Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is any options left to improve sound and camera quality on the Nexus 5? My hearing isn't the greatest but I can hear perfectly fine on my moms cell and other cell phones. If I could get the volume a tad higher on my Nexus 5 that would be great. Also, another problem I am having is I have Rottweiler puppies that I am trying to get pictures of. They don't like to sit still so I am always having to refocus and when I try to refocus the pictures just look like crap. Like the lighting is always messed up and stuff. Is there any way to fix this? I use to use the volume mod and camera mod which seamed to help a bit. However, I do not see any new releases for the newest android build. I had tried installing them a while back and I could not boot so I don't think they are compatible anymore. If someone could offer me some alternatives I would be very appreciative.
I got one more question as well. If I want to fully clean my internal storage before installing a custom rom what is the best way to do so? Is there anyway to remove the folders for installed programs but still keep the files there needed for rooting? I hope that makes sense. After doing a factory reset I still see folders from previously installed programs and apps.
Thanks,
Rocky
I would seriously consider installing Jishnu's Camera Fix. Make sure to grab Version 1.5. I had similar complaints not too long ago and this mod fixed most of them. Best of all, you don't have to download any new Camera apps, this mod just tweaks pre-existing files.
The download links were removed from that thread for some reason. Here's a download link to the latest version: N5_Cam_V1.5.zip

I have tried viper4android but it doesn't seam like its making much of a difference. I'm not sure if it even affects in call volume or not. If any of you guys have any solutions please let me know.
