Has anyone managed to get Tomb Raider II to work? Mine gets to the menu and then freezes when going to play the game :(

fpse is very finicky, however that being said it also runs very well. It doesn't like to save settings, and will usually force close if you try to save them ( at least for me), but once i get in game (i play ffvii alot) it plays wonderful.

Tried few PSX games (NFS HP, Pepsi-Man, Bloody Roar, MDK) and all are looking so pixelated (as it is using software rendering and not OpenGL). Same to you guys?

Tried with Screen filtering, it smooth the lines a bit.. but still pixelated + it slowdowns a lot the emulation.

Tried with HLE off, no effect..

[XPERIA X2 General] britobro:
Hello:

I have this SE Xperia X2 that needed screen alignment; somehow after a 1 hour phone call the phone digitizer failed, after entering the "alignment screen" I was unable to pass as it entered a cycle, the only way to get rid of it was by pressing the panel's button and selecting another panel.

So I decided to reset the phone to hopefully get rid of the problem, but when the reset process finished it took me to the swirly align screen and after 2 weeks I'm starting to think that there is no way out and that my phone became a useless object.

This are the facts:

I live in Costa Rica

I bought the phone a year ago through ebay in Hong Kong

SE Latin America support cannot do anything as my IMEI number is not supported

No store/provider in Costa Rica can help me as my IMEI is not supported for this region

I want to know if someone her does know if there is a solution for this problem.

Thanks,

Allan/Costa Rica
[XPERIA X2 General] joeyfjj:
You may want to try "long-pressing" on each point in align screen instead of a quick tap. Keep it held down until the "+" moves.
[XPERIA X2 General] michaelthemage:
Exactly, try that Long Press and if that doesn't work, connect via PC to SonyEricsson Update Service SEUS and update your phone, ReFlash!

Even if you would have the current version, select update anyways and cross fingers that this will work.

After that, the Align Screen comes up, LONG Press until the cross moves!

Regards and Good Luck!:)
[XPERIA X2 General] britobro:
joeyfjj: thank you very much for your suggestion, but I've alredy tried that... for 20 times with no luck, I've asked somebody else to do it, and nothing happens.
[XPERIA X2 General] britobro:
michaelthemage: thanks for the suggestion, I've done this twice since I had this problem, and the phone is stuck on the same align screen, I've asked support and they've told me that the phone reset will not correct this problem, that it has to be done via software, I'm supposed to go to Hong Kong to fix it, jaja, I better buy 10 phones with the cost of the ticket.

So, I'll keep on looking for a way to put my hands on that so called software...

Tnks
[XPERIA X2 General] pektusin:
I saw this problem before. After a lot of tries I was able to pass the calibration screen. Then I started a test program that shows the touch point and was surprised to see that the point jump up and down randomly!

The problem was in the touchscreen circuitry that is easy to break (I used to keep my phone in my jeans back pocket). After touchscreen assembly replacement the phone was back to normal.

Basically you can put calibration data into the registry to make the calibration screen happy or switch it off at once, but still phone will be not quite usable.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eldrin:
Hope I’m posting this in the right place. Ok here we go:

Bought a Nexus S (i9020T) a couple of weeks ago. It was shipped with 2.3.2. I got the 2.3.4 upgrade OTA and installed it. After the installation the screen has a red tint. And I’m not talking about the color variations between different Android versions, this is really bad! I can’t look at pictures and some text is unreadable. The screen is not broken since the bootloader looks normal, so my guess is that it is software related.

I have downgraded the phone back to 2.3.2 and everything is normal. I have tried to reinstall 2.3.4 as well as going from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 and then 2.3.4, both by downloading the files from Google and manually install and by doing it OTA. I have unlocked the bootloader and tried to load a whole bunch of different ROMs and Kernels. Nothing works. The Voodoo Color Control is not even close to fixing it. The only version that works is stock 2.3.2. I have googled it and it doesn’t seem to be a common problem.

So I’m reaching out to you guys to see if anyone has heard about this behavior and know what to do?? I can live with 2.3.2 but the reason I bought the phone was to get instant updates. I’ll attach a picture of the home screen which should be black. I don’t have international warranty so turning it in to Samsung is not an option.

Any ideas??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
wow. that mr is a defective unit imho. i think that you should try to get a replacement. i do not think that you need international warranty or something. just a receipt might do it. (it worked with htc for many nexus one's purchased on ebay for ex) . just give it a try.

sorry for the news. i hope u get it solved or i hope i am wrong.

keep us updated.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eldrin:
Hmm, yeah I was afraid of that.

Just thinking though, what could be defective? It works just fine on 2.3.2. If i run 2.3.4 (or 2.3.3) and start the phone, the Google-logo shows up in white for about 5 seconds, then it turns red and everything is red after that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
That's really strange. It seems that the update only is screwing things for you. Try sending supercurio a PM. He knows these stuff. He is the dev of the voodoo tweaks and application. He'll surely be able to answer you and give you an advise.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoogie:
Eldrin, Have you finally found a way to fix it ?

Or are you stick in 2.3.2 ?

Red complexion on ICS

Did you find a solution to this problem?

When I turned on my Nexus S i9020 this morning all greyish colors where red. Directly after turning it on, the lock and the google writing where white as usual, but after about 2 second it got a red complexion. I tried to make a screenshot of my homescreen, but in the jpg the red complexion has vanished and it looks as usual. :confused:

I'm running ICS 4.0.3 stock and did the update back in december. Removing the battery for a minute didn't help.

Has anyone an idea?

EDIT: After about 5 restarts it was back to normal! Anyhow, I made a short clip of the startup sequence before www . youtube . com/watch?v=vy5NkFrQDuA
[G2 and Desire Z General] hefelfury:
I keep seeing this question pop up in every sense rom thread: "Are the MMS blurry?"

Surely, there must be an easy fix for this problem, but after searching I could find no definitive answers. MMS works for some people, supposedly, but MMS hasn't worked on any sense build I have tried on T-Mobile US.

I remember having this same problem on HD2 with Sense Android and only sense. With CM7 builds, one can always change the custom user agent to fix this problem.

Any ideas? I am sure myself and many others would be grateful for any help given.

Cheers!

Changing the Maximum Message Size in the Messaging app settings doesn't work?

Not really a "fix". But I use the Chomp SMS app. MMS works fine, and I like the customization options.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] civil.scholar:
hi all

I have to questions about the firmware

first is : Is there any possibility to add a language to a Firmware ? (at least for reading)

second is : as you know the new bada firmwares does not allow to run spoofed apps now the questions, Is there any possibility to run spoofed applications in new bada firmware or can we make a spoofable firmware from non spoofable one?

With Specially Thanks to all
[Bada Software and Hacking General] xsycox:
If you ever had used the forum search, you would have found both answers to your questions.

... and your second question sucks, anyway.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] civil.scholar:
if you know any answer post it

if dont know so dont talk , anyway
[Bada Software and Hacking General] lordfarhan40:
Well for your first question I dont know the answer but for your second i know.

There may be a way u can make it spoofable by hackin some files but the better way is to download firmware that was released before November or any firmware that is pre hacked by some hackers to run spoof applications. well i personally dont suggest you to spoof games or any other application because i also dont do the same. The developers need some support.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] civil.scholar:
thanks i think both answers is negative but nothing is impossible

in our region there is just one firmware of bada 1.2 and its release after november so if we want to use bada 1.2 there is no way to use spoofed apps ( there is no older version of bada 1.2)

for yor advice tnx i know they need support but samsung apps dont let us to buy apps because the seller part dont start in our region so we have no way except spoof
[Bada Software and Hacking General] lordfarhan40:
Actually I never knew that you cant buy apps. so listen xxJID, xxJJA, xxJK1 firmwares were launched before November and are also bada 1.2

[HTC Inspire 4G] eskimosnow:
So, I've heard people having ridiculous troubles getting their battery doors off, but mine is quite the opposite. It takes only a little pull to get it, and when it is "on" it seems like there is a unintended gap between the door and body of the phone and it doesn't seem to lay flush with the edge of the body. I actually bought another battery door to see if mine just lost its ability to lock but the same annoyances occur.

Has anyone had a similar situation and know a fix? Is there a "right" way to put on the battery door?

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] zuriken:
Takes 2 people (or 3 hands) just to get my bloody phone cover off, but no issues removing the battery cover. Sure is a pill to get that darn thing back on though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
I believe you are possibly the first one to complain about it coming of that easy. Where did you buy the battery cover from? Ebay? Is it a genuine HTC part?

Try calling HTC, they might send you a replacement one and it will be genuine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dmeans2:
Mine was hard to pull off at first but I think I may have messed it up because now I'm having the same issue. Its quite easy to get off now. Eh well, I'm going to put a case on my phone this week so hopefully it'll hold the door tighter.

Mine's not loose, but after reading and watching reviews, I was prepared to do battle with the battery cover if needed. In the end, some people are just brain dead. The battery cover isn't hard to take off, or put back on.

Still has me scratching my head...
[HTC Inspire 4G] darkside1904:
They have changed the cover since the first ones came out. If you got your inspire early on the battery cover was a nightmare and usually got destroyed trying to take it off. HTC is actually sending out free replacement battery covers because the first covers were so bad.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Xenithflare:

Just wondering if anyone can help me here.

I have a Defy, its sim free and unbranded and have been told that I will need to flash it to put CM7 or other ROMs on.

So I downloaded v4.9 and have turned the handset off and hold up while rebooting.

It has pinged up that it has installed the USB Flash drivers.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Do you flash it from rom manager?

The thing is, even though that's the dev's preferred way of doing it, and the way I did it, I've since come to learn from a post by Mudknot2005 in his guide that's stickied to this section, that rom manager has a bug where even though you choose to wipe, it doesn't actually wipe.

This is the first I'd heard of it, and I don't have additional info yet, but it's kind of left a question mark in my head about the integrity of my flash, via the suggested rom manager route.

Maybe someone with more insight will visit this thread and shed some light on this.

[HTC Inspire 4G] jimiyarb:
I did flash from ROM manager...It makes me a little less nervous to do it that way! I did read somewhere that you may need to flash back to an older version of ROM manager to avoid some of the bug possibilities. But like I said, I'm new to this and it can be a bit intimidating to a beginner. I def hope some more experienced members can get on here and help us out. Thanks Scott!
[HTC Inspire 4G] cstayton:
I try to avoid Flashing from ROM Manager, it just seems to be (for me anyway) cleaner to boot into recovery and flash from there that way i know for sure that Dalvik and cache got wiped and if required i know that a full wipe has actually been done.

For me the method listed below works best

1. boot into recovery

2. choose advanced and the wipe dalvik cache

3. choose go back and then do a factory reset delete data

4. optionally go into the mounts and storage menu

5. format system and format data and format cache

6 flash ROM of choice.

Hi, just trying to get an some idea wide spread an issue is with Wifi, is your wifi:

A: fine, no problems at all, I get a strong signal near the router which does not immediately degrade once I move 2-5 metres away (test using "wi-fi analyser" from the market). Download and performance are excellent next to the router and remains so even up to 5 metres way.

B: fine, but the signal quickly degrades to less than 60 % of original signal when standing 5 metres away. Download and performance is excellent next to the router and average to poor 2-5 metres or more away.

C: fine, but the signal quickly degrades to less than 60 % of original signal when standing 5 metres away. Download and performance is excellent next to the router but poor when I move more than 5 metres away.
[Galaxy S II General] LawAce:
B for me, only fault with the phone
[Galaxy S II General] SBS_:
Hmm don't know what to answer here to be honest, it's either A or B.

I get -22dBm next to the router, -50dBm 5 meters away and -70dBm 10-12 meters away.

When testing with the Speedtest.net app I get 14mbps upload both right next to the router, 5 meters away and 10 meters away. Download was only 6mbps because of the crappy Speedtest servers. 60/60 connection btw.

So the signal may degrade, but download/upload doesn't.

wow only 6 people with wf-fi issues, clearly not a problem then...think I will put the latest update on and take it back :)
