I have been running CM 10.2.1 for a while now and for the most part was pretty pleased with it but now I have been noticing that my signal strength has been going down. Areas where I had mostly good strength I now have fair to none. I have contacted Sprint about any towers being down but they...

How did you do it? My wife's phone has 4.3 on it and I would like to try it on her's

CWM recovery v6.0.4.3 and for some reason I am not able to access my SD card thru file explore. It shows that I have an SD card mounted but I can't access it except by the computer.

Well I flashed Cyanogen 10.2 last night and now I need to figure out how to get certain apps that I backed up to my sd card back. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks to Golfdriver for the help and encouragement thus far!

Well I am finally going to bite the bullet and try to do my first install of a new ROM. I think for the sake of simplicity I am going to go with Cyanogen 10, seeing as how it does most of the work for me. I will be using their installer from the web site (CyanogenMod | Android Community...

Re: 4.3 Q & A Since I am new to this and I am not to swift on figuring out exactly how to do this even though I have read through the referenced post, would someone have pity on a dumb ol' Hillbilly and send me the step by step on how to do this? I know that some are saying "what's the big...

Seeing as how I am not going to install the OTA, how do you modify the buildprop? I'm really getting tired of that fersluggin reminder every hour.......

OK I don't know how this happened but I now have CWM recovery v6.0.4.3 and it is backing up everything I would think like it should be doing. it did the system backup and is doing the data to my SD card. It's showing Backup complete. I guess this means it took? So is there a way that I can...

Then there would be the one for us noobs: IDKWTHID (I don't know what the heck I'm doing)

It's a class 10 SanDisk. MaXXimus & Golfdriver, I used this video as the instructions on how to root my phone before I found this forum: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukpBDTZQ_bM Do I need to put my phone back to stock and root it again a different way to get the TWRP recovery? I really do...

Golfdriver, I have a 32gb sd card and have a bit of music on it but for some reason that version of CWM recovery doesn't recognize it I guess. Is there a way for me to up/change the software to make a back up? If not what's the easiest way for me to do it? I know I'm probably asking what some...

I'm using CWM Recovery v5.5.0.4 to backup but it said for backing up data "No /sdcard/.android_secure found. Skipping backup of application on external storage." It also said on backing up cache "No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext." Generating md5 sum.. Backup complete Is this correct...

I rooted my phone a while back and have been exploring the custom ROMs and having read as much as I have I'm surprised that my head hasn't exploded.... I really appreciate the help!

After having so much about the different ROM's on here, I feel like my head is about to explode with so many different opinions of which one is best. I have looked heavily at MOAR to put on my phone. The main concern I have is bricking my phone while trying to put it on there. What type of...

I have the same problem after rooting and not using TouchWiz launcher. I tried to use Google voice but evidently I don't know what I'm doing........nothing new on that front, since I don't.....
