[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajhavery:
I'm constantly receiving error or force close for these two: PVWmdrmProxy and PVWmdrmService.

Can someone tell me what are these and is it safe to remove these?

These came pre-installed with Virtuous unity v1.25.0 rom, and my device is HTC desire z.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WithinArmsReach:
Late response, but FWIW I get the same error too on version 1.31.

There's a thread about it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136439

I may try doing a 'superwipe' as they suggest when I upgrade to the next version of unity.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilcuber:
I figured out why it keeps force closing. The unity rom only has very little free ram so the android system says that the pv apps are the least important out of the system apps and kills them to create more free ram.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WithinArmsReach:
Ah, that makes sense.

I've just talked a friend of mine into parting with his Inspire 4G so when I get my hands on it fingers crossed the ram issue won't come up as much
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beetlejelly:
When I first got the SG2, the data signal dropped pretty much every time I tried to use it (XWKE2). I upgraded my ROM to (XXKE4) and it seemed to make things much better. I just upgraded to (XXKF2) and it seems to be bad again, but not as bad as the original ROM.

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this, and if there is a preferred modem ROM for USA AT&T. I'm also in New York City, so this may also be part of the problem.
[HTC Sensation] bobsbbq:
I have on my Thunderbolt and on my MT4G a Stock App called Voice Dialer. So when my bluetooth headset is connected I can press the call button on the headset and it will allow me to voice dial etc. It seems this app is missing on the Sensation.

I tried a couple of apps in the market but they won't work or activate from my headset like the stock app does.

Any help appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] Lightning N1:

[HTC Sensation] bobsbbq:
Thanks for the info, I tried the APK but I get a force close everytime I try to dial a number. Has anyone else used the APK and got it to work? One other thing I noticed is when I speak it comes up with text on the screen wanting me to press OK to confirm the dial of the contact. Normally it will do any verification of command through audio in the headset.

[Nexus One General] lchiu7:
I sent my phone in to HTC to have a new power button (PCB) installed.

Of course I only sent the phone with no back, battery, SIM card or SD card. It did have a screen protector on it and was running GB 2.3.4. I didn't take a backup of the apps since I presume they would be noted in the marketplace.

When I got the phone back I noticed that it had reverted to 2.2.1 and had been initialised. I didn't think just replacing the power button PCB would cause that. The screen protector is still there.

Also I had a dodgy SIM card reader in the old phone so it would not register a SIM card unless I stuffed a piece of paper on top of it. I did ask HTC to look at that but the fixed phone still has this problem.

So perhaps they replaced the main board (hence it going back to Froyo) but kept the screen, case and reader parts of my phone.

Annoyingly I lost all the data in my apps that I didn't synchronise to servers and also all my SMS messages.

By the way, I was loading back my apps for about 10 minutes when I got the message about the 2.3.4 OTA update which I accepted. That's nice.
[Nexus One General] Karolis:
I think flashing their default ROM is something they do regardless of what's the problem with the device. I remember sending my TyTN II for repair couple years ago - came back with ROM re-flashed. Besides, replacing power button does not require changing the whole main board, that's probably why your SIM slot is still broken.
[Nexus One General] chichoCRZ:
The same thing happened with me when I sent in my N1 to replace a cracked screen. Since I could not factory reset it because how bad the screen was, I sent it in with CM7. When I got it back it had Froyo.

The bootloader was still unlocked though.
[Nexus One General] D@rKnight:
Well ... If u send your laptop to get fixed ... regardless of the problem ... they will set it back to the official state ... seems the same with phones too .
[Acer Iconia A500] Tyscott:
I can't seem to get the Prime 1.4 rom working. I go into CWM and install the zip after factory reset and formatting but after it installs I'm left with this error

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

Upon reboot im stuck at the acer screen. Can anyone help?
[Acer Iconia A500] Tyscott:
So I'm the only one whose having this issue on their Iconia? I got CWM working, I guess no roms for me then..
[Android Themes] kiltedthrower:
Decided to use Launcher Pro again. However, changes will not take effect. I can't change the rows or columns, I can't remove the app icon labels, etc.

I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it. Nothing is working.
[KIN Two Software Development] Radar2004:
So I extracted the ZuneDriver.dll and made a folder of course. Then I looked through it and came across a text file called string. I opened it and found this.

101	Generic flat

102	Generic hierarchical

103	DCF

104	Fixed storage

105	Removable storage

106	Storage

107	Portable Device

Any use for it? or was that just random things?

Might be lines for just the zune.
[KIN Two Software Development] X-15D9W8491:
What i think

it looks like either a list of specs or is defining what certain numbers mean when they are used in the file's text strings. it could be useful, but we'll never know unless we find out for certain.
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
I would want to know how you extracted them (hopefully, not using PeXplorer).

This is not useful (already known) but other things may be.

To be more concrete, is the text description of storage types. Ours is 102	Generic hierarchical.

Could be check using mtp queries.
[KIN Two Software Development] Radar2004:
I extracted it using 7-zip.
[KIN Two Software Development] ishbar:
i tired using a standered mtp driver which let me veiw the drive in windows explor and then reformated the hard drive... alll it really did erase everything( i couldnt mess with anything on the phone) but it did give me more space to put music and video on it was 6.7ish before after it was 7.3 ish so no to amazing but still kinda cool. i also noticed that it showed the driver (after whipping) as having 120 something mb still on but nothing was there.
[HD7 General] pskale123:
I bought this hd7 a week ago from ebay seller. It is a t-mobile unlocked device.

My location services are turned on , but whenever i goto bing maps and search for my location, it keeps on searching but never shows me my location.

I have already done with following solutions i got from internet and htc call center.

1) Already flashed htc asia rom

2) Tried to search without sim card inserted

3)Tried to find my location in open skies

4)already turned on the location services

5)when i try other gps app like gmaps, it searches and gives error "The GPS data isn't available now". My 3g is also on, so there is no problem of downloading the maps.

I want to tell that i live in india, and i am using hotmail account with country : United states in order to use marketplace on my phone.

So, considering all above things, What could be the problem?
[HD7 General] Arjun Haritsa:
In reply

hi,

Download an app in the market place named GPS (its free).. And run it.. it initializes the GPS signal.
[HD7 General] Strike_Eagle:
I am using the HD7 T9292 T-mobile unlocked at Vietnam and i am doing fine with TA Maps, Bingle Maps, even Bing Maps works fine without info about roads at Vietnam .

Try to flash back to T-mobile 7004 rom and then get the update

By the way, you can unlock the phone after you flash back to 7004, and then search for the HTC GPS Test Tool Xap somewhere in xda forum to test your GPS.
[HD7 General] anton1092:
same problem :(
[HD7 General] priviv:
Hello,

Was there a solution found for this problem. I am having the same problem on a brand new unlocked HD7 that I bought. Any solution would be very much appreciated
[HD7 General] naplesbill:
I'm not sure if this helps, but I had some issues with GPS on my HD7S (AT&T) and I calibrated the compass. It made a huge difference.

I would occasionally get the no data when trying to use GPS. I haven't had a problem since.
[HD7 General] Lord AnubiS:
It usually takes some time for the GPS to start working, sometimes I need to use the GPS with a clear sky (no buildings around) to make it work properly.
[HD7 General] shefo:
Yea , I have the same problem :(

I am also outside US , with a T-Mobile HD7 (Egypt) ,also have the settings USA for Marketplace.

I managed to get A-GPS to work though , I'm not sure what I really did , but I think I installed the HTC Compass app , that made things work I guess

But A-GPS is totally inaccurate , hundreds of meters of error-margin !

If anyone had anyluck with that , please tell us

UPDATE: The above method made my GPS working , the problem was in the area I was trying the GPS in. once I got out of the buildings area , the GPS recieved the data nicely (not 100% uptime , but at down times it switches to A-GPS)

To find out in which GPS mode are you in ( full or A-GPS ) you will need to download a free tool called "GPSInfo" from the marketplace
[HD7 General] kvizz:
The HD7 gps just seems to suck, or maybe we have bad luck.

Mine takes forever to search, and when it does search it is WAAAY OFF.

hopefully mango can fix my problems
[HD7 General] NachoNut:
Ok i'll jump on the band wagon.... I've had this issue forever really. The gps is a few blocks off in certain areas. In my house it was pretty decent one day (I was shocked!!) but normally it's off from day to day. It could be 3 blocks, 2 blocks... Right now in Manhattan, it's showing me 4 blocks off from where I am. I honestly just don't get it. Is it the hardware? Tried the compass, tried the GPS app.

Honestly, I just feel something has to be reset in the system
[HD7 General] kvizz:
Ok weird. I figured out my problem. When I'm connected to WiFi and try to use the GPS its off by a few blocks. It jumps between two spots and never gets the right location. WiFi off and it pin points it exactly.
[HD7 General] manigma:
THE SOULTION IS SIMPLE IF GPS ON YOUR HD7 IS NOT WORKING AT ALL.

- Go to Settings

- Go to Region & Language

- Change Region format to Language (your Country's name)

- Change System locale to Language (your Country's name)

I am in India and the GPS on my HD7 (O2 UK) did not work for 1 month. I tried many things but this worked at last.

I also downloaded 'Drive On' navigation app later and it provides Voice Navigation for free and works very accurately. Bing Maps and Gmaps are fast but have no voice.
[General Questions and Answers] jason83salih:
hi, this is my first post in xda and sorry if i already made a mistake to start new thread here :)

so i m a samsung galaxy s user and huge fun of miui rom !! But since v5 i have noticed an serious issue that sim card was not working after even clean ezbase froyo installation wipe data/system/cache :(

so .... after unsucsesfull 50 try (almost really :) ) so finally i figure out how to fix it,i find a kind a helpfull to share my experience with miui rom :)

1- first things first higly recomended clean froyo firmware(or bootloader) so my choice was a ezbase froyo --- link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991792

2-phone must be rooted,here s the link that i m always check for rooting my galaxy s (if u flashed ezbase than your phone is already rooted so u can skip this step)

3-after clean installation of froyo/ezbase than make sure that your simcard is working and imei is correct

4-If everythings working as used to be than install app call " boite a outlis SGS" from market (sry its a french app)

5- open the app u installed from step 4 and allow for root access.even app is french luckly main tab bar is english so click on "efs" (3.th from left) and than click on option 1 (sauvegarde EFS) this will backup your correct imei/efs to app s own folder on internal sd card.

6-than just flash your miui rom as normal(but do not format to internal sd card)

7-after u finish with clean and correct installation of miui rom than install same app from step 4!! and than click on "efs" tab and go with second option(restauration EFS)

8-restart the phone and KABOOOM"""" :) there u go now u have a clean miui rom with correct imei and working sim card :)

[General Questions and Answers] jason83salih:
yeah it took a bit of time to figure out for me also :):D
[General Questions and Answers] instrumental:
Thanks, man! I try that out this evening.

When having froyo I just made a backup from the folder. But being on MIUI I couldn't overwrite the folder efs (I tried with root explorer and SU file manager). He always created the "corrupted" one again...

That helped! thx

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpk0875:
hi all,

as usual, i hope this isn't a double post.

i'm wondering, when the official gingerbread update arrives, will it work on old basebands??

the reason for this question is because my x10 has a broken usb port and i'm stuck in baseband 2.1.54.

would devs make gingerbread roms based on the official rom for older basebands??

this is bothering me so much because i love my x10 and it would break my heart if i couldn't update my x10 to a fully working gingerbread.

thx for ur input
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtblittlebrown:
Might not work most likely not there is a new baseband and kernel required
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRuan:
Do you know what pin on the usb port that is the broken one?

when you connect the phone to the computer, does anything show up?

What I mean is that if your connect has +5V or -5V broken it would still show upon the computer but wouldn't charge (i think), so maybe the phone wouldn't get in charging state but could be connected.

Else the best would be to open and try to fix the broken connector, i don't think this would be too expensive to pay for.

Unless the connection for the usb is broken on the "chip port" and is not a connector broken.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpk0875:
I looked at bunch of threads with fixes but I'm no good at insides of gadgets and it would cost me $70 to fix it at a shop; I would rather replace it for $200 or wait for hardware upgrade if it came down to that though.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agera:
I was reading this thread earlier today and I just remembered about this, I was just on the market and I came across this app called Software Data Cable by Proid Mobile Inc. This app can let you transfer files/folders from computer to phone without the need to use a usb.. This could be the solution for the op is looking for if he wants to upgrade to gingerbread. Its free btw... Have a look at it read the faq as it states and let us know if it works.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan.s:
The software data cable app uses wifi and ftp to transfer your files. Even xrecovery is going to be gone while the phone gets a new kernel.

Oh ok, wasnt aware of that. Would you be able to take the micro sd and place it into a card reader then transfer the files that way? Out of curiosity.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRuan:
Impossible as flashing baseband or seus repair requires to be connect in flash mode, so there is no system running on it.

Please help a new user in his quest to harness the power of the nook color :)

1. Wi-Fi connection speeds: I have a Belkin play 802.11n router yet the nook connects at 54Mbs only. How do i fix this? Also while the connection on the computer is great the internet on the nook is hitting dialup speeds *shudder*.

2. Battery life: Ever since i switched from stable to nightly and OC'd it (to 1.2 on conservative) it seems to just go nom nom nom on my battery. It lasts me a few hours with brightness at 20%. How do i fix this? (i have not tried clearing the battery stats yet though)

I might add a few more when i remember them. BTW i am running nightly #110 and the latest OC kernel from dalagrin.

What this does is send a PM to myself and badwolve1(your moderators), aswell as the administrators with a direct link to the offending post and thread, but more importantly it keeps a clear record of who has the problem, and who the offender is.
