Downloads: DRM Protected Content Storage (>400MB?)

Hey guys,
i am using LeoGingerBread 0.8.5. and my nexus downloaded nearly 600-800MB. 440MB via HSDPA - man that sucks -.-
So: the Process is called "Downloads DRM Protected Content Storage"!
As i think its an OTA Update which cannot be installed - and ist restarts after every reboot - sometimes stops, but than starts again.
So, in terms of stopping that s***, i froze "DRM Protected Content Storage" - but it didn't helped.
So i also froze "Downloads" - and i hope that finally helps.
BUT - thats terrible! I dont want to look for that everytime i flash a rom - whats that, and why is this happening?
best regards

Best really to ask they type of ROM-specific question in the ROM thread I think. ROM dev can disable OTA updates...

i would have done that
but still blocked because of the low posting amount...

I don't really wish to work against the rules or have an unnecessary conversation here but hey, I've given you an excuse for a few more posts...

Hi mod,
I think the index could do better stickied on the frontpage, since it contains majority of the knowledge base, and new users don't usually realise there's actually an Index thread within the sticky roll-up thread.
My sugguestion.

This idea was one of the best. To be better, and because XDA gives worldwide support but forum rules demand for English, I think the most skilled on other languages, could create translated text documents of the tutorials to download.
It's just an idea...

Nice idea :good: Perhaps using the Google Document and giving an access to some users to edit it might be a good solution.
I'll sort the stickies later in the evening.

I've closed all unnecessary bootloader unlocking threads as they all don't need to be discussed. One thread is enough for that.

I'm after some help with my CPU settings. I'm running stock android 4.1.2 on a C6603. Build is 253.
I've got Rom Toolbox Lite and it has settings to tweak the kernel and CPU settings. I'm after some help as to what settings are the best when I want a decent combination of speed (I'm heavy on the ole Internet and gaming) and lasting battery life.
Any help or links would be much appreciated.
I am rooted but a noob at messing around with it.

To be honest, I have never used ROM Toolbox.
Infact for such apps, most "tweaks" give you a negligible performance benefit.
The only way to truly get a performance benefit is to play around with settings till you reach an optimum.
If you are truly after good kernel tweaks, take a look at Trickster Mod.
For battery savings, I recommend the use of Greenify.

If you are coming from an AMOLED display, then you might find that the Z's display is a bit under saturated.
But actually, the display is quite precise. There is nothing "wrong" with it.
All problems with viewing angles were solved in the subsequent updates.

First, I want to thank you for bringing this to the Sony Xperia Z forum as this would help alot of new and old XDA members. Its an great idea the QnA section is indeed a mess and I do understand that most moderators are busy with other things as well, this would definitely save them alot of time.

mirroring
I can not mirror my Xperia Z with my LG TV, I recently installed the cyanogenmod and mirroring worked, but with the stock roms, does not work, can someone help?

I've recently rooted my Z with Doomlord's Easy rooting toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327472). The root was successful and I had verified root access. But whenever I try to change system files like adding boot animation, editing fonts or even just simply change system files to RW, my phone will automatically force reboot itself. Please help!!!

I'm using .423 but already tried with .434 and .253, but it's the same thing, I seek the tv, he thinks, and then the time to connect, it just disconnects before the image appears on TV, the strange thing is that in cyanogem worked perfectly.

Hi, since .423 update I got problem with background data. Restricting it for a period of time then removing it by tapping from notification or setting doesn't really remove the restrictions. Accessing play store gets pop up notification to enabled background data. Problem solved by reboot. Anyone experience this and know how to fix this? Thanks in advance. Sorry for bad english.

FYI, you said I posted in Samsung III section, which is the wrong section. So now I post in the III 9305 Section. Please only give constructive comments.
Modified Stock Rom I meant. Can't you just click the link to find out what rom it is?

rXtreme is a modded rom, see comment from OP below.
rXTREME ROM is personalized, fast, smooth, lite and longer battery life. From latest Samsung Firmware added some tweaks and features, removed useless apps and bloatwares. You have an option to choose from lite to extra lite ROM (removed apps is compiled and can still be installed from a separate zip file with aroma options).
