[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schlouchy8:
I recently flashed CM7 and I have noticed that when I power the device off and plug the AC wall charger into it the phone automatically rebooted itself to the homescreen and will not charge while powered off regardless of what I do. I was just wondering if anyone else was having this problem and if there are any known remedies for this issue? Thanks.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueflash:
me too

I have galaxy s 2 with miui and that won't charge when off, which is not good when battery totally drained, as now can not charge phone :(

had to buy 2nd battery, did you find a solution?

May go back to stock rom and try
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Terror_1:
Just fyi jt resolved this months ago. It had something to do with the kernel if I remember correctly. Any kernel from mid August on should be resolved.

(PS) this thread didn't need to be resurrected.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkuehl06:

Yes, yes it should be. I thought that was obvious though. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
The signal strength is just HORRIBLE on this phone for me.

Places where I was getting at least 1-2 bars before, I get a nice "X" now (or roaming).

I have my brothers Evo 4G right next to my 3VO and he's got 2 bars while I got none.

Is it like this for everyone or should I just go replace the phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] nate420:
Try updating your prl and profile..

If no difference,

Call sprint and go to "troubleshooting" department

They can reset some stuff on their end and force prl and profile updates

If still no difference the buy a nexus s 4g and see a real "signal problem". To make you feel better about the evo3d

[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
Lol.. thanks brah.

I plan on calling Sprint tomorrow.

And I actually had the Nexus S 4G for two weeks before I got this phone and signal was actually good with that one. I had 3-4 bars to where the Evo4G would have 1-2.

Probably the best signal phone I've ever used.

Thanks again though.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
Mine is identical to the Epic...so either the Epic signal strength sucked or they are both fine. I do notice that I don't get a signal inside our local Walmart and in our home we barely get a signal. I just assumed it had something to do with the service since T-Mobile was slightly worse (at least with Sprint we don't get dropped calls in our home).

It works for my google account, but not for my wife's. Any idea what could be the cause?

(great Converter BTW.

But i need to know the custom settings

as far as deminsions for the 3d i put W=960 Pixels=100% H=564 and same pixles.

Am i missing something, or does it need to be that 1080 Width?

SD-Booster helps you to improve your read speed on a SD-Card.

It's harmless and need no other permissions then root.
[Epic 4G Themes] mcdeeandhisepic:
Well I thought it was time that i throw my hat in the fire and started with an idea.

The idea grew into what I have put together for everyone to enjoy. I would like to do a theme but i thought I would test the waters and see if the community liked it and then move on with the theme. This is my first one so be gentle :D

Now for the disclaimer:

If by flashing this you release myself and anyone involved with this project from ANY damage to your phone of any kind not that it will but just in case gotta do the ole CYA!!!!!

This may seem easy to most but i started mostly from scratch and then with help from a good friend (qbking77) and a new friend (ZigSVO) i am proud to present JOKERS GAG REEL.

Download:

Well i guess then that from what i have seen between here and the views on qbking77s vids that ppl would like this to become a theme. I am working very hard to make that happen for the community and I have been resently tapped by the ACS as a tester (for now.....) so i maybe able to expidite things faster with the help of ACS. The theme will be great and it WILL NOT BE released unitll it is 100% because (of my OCD) and iam hopeing that i can get it recognized and endorsed by ACS.............. So unitll then stay tuned..............

[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
So since as if we have already been abandoned by the Gingerbreak Project, what can you guys recommend to root my R800i without removing the ability to update the phone to higher Android in the coming months?

So you see I am really new to Android and I have little knowledge on unlocking bootloaders and the like that's why I stuck to Gingerbreak last month. Now that I have updated to 2.3.3, yeah everybody knows Gingerbreak no longer works.

I cannot consider reverting back to 2.3.2 since the 2.3.3 update really improved the battery performance and I'd still choose that over the ability to root on the 2.3.2. But then, bottom line is we really love our phones rooted.

So to cut the crap, anyone please recommend the best method to root the R800i (I would be open for tutorials) whilst preserving our ability to update to better versions in the future?
[Xperia Play General] -josh-:
Ive not rooted or unlocked the boot loader yet myself as this is my first android device im taking it slowly but according to threads in the development section you can root and upgrade as long as you do nothing to the device before upgrading, root the phone then upgrade to 2.3.3

This means flashing backwards first obviously.

As far as upgrading in the future you will be better off flashing a custom rom if development goes well. Custom roms will take this device further than official updates will.
[Xperia Play General] Mozza2k11:
See here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116090. Follow the steps and you shall have root on 2.3.3 :). I have also opted to "freeze" the bloat this time instead of just uninstalling it, in hopes that when 2.3.4 arrives i can do the ota update again and still keep root.

Also @ -josh- rooting will not damage your phone so its safe to root. I am also a first time android user myself but following the steps in the thread above worked fine no problems. And even if it didnt you can use SEUS to fix a phone with a locked bootloader
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
I rooted my phone when i was using 2.3.2 and found a good improvement.

Then i updated to an unrooted 2.3.3.

Ive left it unrooted for now. 2.3.3 performance is better than a rooted 2.3.2 i find.

It would be nice to root and remove the bloatwarw and overclock to 1.5 ghz, which can now be done. But for now i am happy.

Aside from a few Gameloft games not working, 2.3.3 is outstanding.

Not going to root until something major happens. Only reason i can see to root is to clock to 1.5 ghz to get n64oid working better.

Other than that, no point imo.
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
i have already tried the 2.3.2 root then flash to 2.3.3 method to no avail.. i don't know what im doing wrong but i think it's because my handset's a HK one, had it bought by someone in HK then i am using it here in the philippines. i'm not considering flashing custom roms either since i can't trust others' hands playing around roms, hehehe.. sigh!
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
You can are not supposed to flash to 2.3.3.. You are supposed to flash your phone to 2.3.2 uk generic version. After root your phone and through your phone you go to settings /about/update software and upgrade it there without hooking it to the computer. Make sure that your bootloader is LOCKED, otherwise you brick your phone.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
All gameloft games work with 2.3.3. Delete all the data files in game/gameloft and redownload all the games. It will work
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
yah yah yah yah i did all that before and still nothing..
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
I uninstalled all my non-working gameloft games.

Anyway i can get them back without purchasing them again?

Use this to get to 2.3.3 unrooted. Everything will be put back to stock.

[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
Yes go to the website on the stock android browser, enter your phone number. All games purchased for your business device will be there for one year.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
You are clearly doing something wrong, the only phone that can't be rooted is the version version of the play.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
Thanks for this info.

Unfortunately it didnt work for me. I only have one game in the list which was Asphalt 6.

Ive bought about half of them so there should be plenty more in the list but they are not there.

Ive emailed customer service. Not really that bothered if i get them back or not but i wanted to play Sacred Odessy again. It stopped working when i updated to 2.3.3.

Nevermind.
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
Don't email them. Call them. Email takes more then a week for each reply. Calling us 10 minutes wait
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
sheise. i've been on 2.3.3 unrooted for weeks now and i'm sick of the bloatware... flashing a 2.3.2 UK generic ROM via FlashTool gives back an error that's why i stuck to 2.3.3 unrooted..

EDIT:

oh well, the root-the-2.3.2-then-update-to-2.3.3-via-OTA method suddenly worked today.. sheise!
[Xperia Play General] crimsonnight:
Does flashing the phone complete erase everything?
[Xperia Play General] Deoxlar:
It's better if you choose to erase personal files.. It's an option that you check off before flash. That being said, nothing on your sd card gets touched.
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
so everyone still uses FlashTool? it gives me back an error so i used WotanClient. Worked like a charm! I'm now on 2.3.3 UK Generic ROOTED! and works like anything else here in the philippines! :)
[Xperia Play General] crimsonnight:
Thanks, so if I want there's an option to keep all my data/settings? Basically I could flash a rooted version of 2.3.3 onto my xperia play running 2.3.3? Cheers

Hi all. Brand new Infuse 4G user here and glad I switched from the Atrix (hated the poor camera and washed out colors on the screen). Anyways, I just installed Infused 1.5 with the Infusion 1.5.1 Kernel after wiping all caches and am having a problem with the GoSMS widget.

I restored my apps and settings from TiB but the widget does not show up in the widget list. i can uninstall the app including deleting the data for it, installing it again from the Marketplace, and it shows up again and works perfectly. If I reboot the phone it says "Problem loading widget" and is gone from the widget list again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I cannot get my phone to enter usb mass storage mode. I am running cm7 7.03. I plug my phone in and it just charges, doesnt give me the option for mass storage like it used to.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tweaked:
Mine doesn't auto ask, I have to drop the menu from the top of the phone and select it. Can you select it there?

Never used CM so I don't no that you can. But every rom I have ever used had the option there.
[HTC Inspire 4G] theNazerith:
Do you have USB debugging mode on?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Jake06:
I used to have the option in the drop down menu but not anymore.

Yes I have tried it with it enabled and disabled. When it is plugged in to the pc it charges it, but nothing else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] theNazerith:
My guess is you had USB debugging mode enabled then you made a selection to charge when use USB connected to the computer and you might have accidently checked to do this everytime so you wouldn't get the mass storage button when the USB is connected
[Android Themes] JokerAce:
Yeah! Those icons on the shelves, below the Jorte calendar are launchable icons. The icons are embedded into the wallpaper onto the shelves (which are embedded as well).

I have seen in a couple of threads, people asking for tips and tricks (T&T) on how to do this, and it has been explained by kind sharers many times over. Thought I would create this thread for those in need, and keep other threads free from clutter!

For this tutorial, I would be sharing T&T on using ADW Launcher (or ADW Launcher Ex), because that's the only launcher I use, which in my personal opinion is a great launcher. I would sincerely request that other launcher users, like LauncherPro or GoLauncher, to share their details here too, and I will update this post with the relevant launchers.

So here we go.

How to embed shelves and icons?

There are software like photoshop (payable) and GIMP (freeware) which allows you to do editing easily. Shelves (various designs of them!!) can be found at deviantART. Simply use them, open with GIMP, place the shelves at where you want them to be on the wallpaper. Done. Same applies to icons.

How to make them launchable?

For this, we need a transparent icon, which I have attached here. [Please click on it, let xda open it up in preview, and save it from there. Otherwise, right-clicking+save removes the transparent effect.] Save the transparent icon into your sd-card.

1. Go into your launcher, press and hold on the app (for example bar-code scanner) and drag it to the home screen.

2. Place it over the embedded icons.

3. Using the adw launcher options, press and hold on the app icon, on a pop-up dialog, hit the "edit" button.

4. Press the icon, it will ask where you want to get the icons from. Select "Select Pictures" and select "Gallery"

5. Select the transparent icon which you saved in your sd-card. And Done!!

Notice

Sometimes you have different set ups. For mine I have 4 Icons in a row on a shelves, and 2 shelves. Having a 4x4 homescreen doesn't allow me to place the app icons at where I want them to be. So I would need to create more rows and columns for my screens. ADW Settings > UI Settings > Screen Preferences > Desktop Columns or Desktop Rows. Personally I have a 8 columns by 10 rows set up.

I am done here. Once again, fellow alternative launcher users, please PM me or comment here on how you do your stuff! I would be more than happy to update this post with other alternatives.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stillwater2:
Hello,

I have recently bought nexus one and now randomly I have problems with the screen - I click on one place and it does something totally differently. It is fixed if I turn off and on screen. Before posting the question I did do my homework - I found this

- Q5: Sometimes my screen registers touches in incorrect places, and I need to turn the phone off and on to make it work correctly again

A: This is a hardware problem, nothing can be done about it. Nexus One's digitizer sucks.

in FAQ and found out that screen can't be calibrated. Now the questions that I have are:

1) Do all of the nexus ones have this issue? Would you advice me to return the phone and get a different model or replace for the same model (I already have bought screen protectors and case).

2) How often does this happen?

3) Is this a truly a hardware issue or software issue?

If this is a hardware issue - can it be fixed by software (e.g. by restarting the driver for the digitizer every minute or something like that...). I've read somewhere on this forum (or on a different one) that motorola had similar issues and they have released a patch that has fixed the issue

4) Are their any hopes it will get fixed in future releases?

5) People who have the same phone - how often do you have to turn off and on it (the screen - not reboot)?

Any other issues I should be aware of?

About the phone - its android 2.3.4
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
1) Yes. Some are more affected, some are less, all have it. It also depends on a zillion of factors - including climate, average finger moisture, etc.

2) See answer 1.

3) I've never looked at the code, but Nexus One is out for a year. If it was possible to fix - I'd bet it would have been done by now.

4) See answer 3.

5) See answer 1.

You've done your homework, but still came to ask "just in case". Well, the answers didn't change for the last 1/2 year.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stillwater2:
Thank you for the quick answer.

If all the phones have this issue - why people are still using them? Or this is something they have just got used to? Also I understand that the frequency is different for everybody, but can I please have some numbers? Its one thing if it does it once a day or once a week and totally different if it does it every hour or every 15 minutes of use... Can you please let me know how often it does it for your phone? Also are you using screen protector? Is there any corolation between screen protector and and frequency?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Screen protector is known to cause less sensitivity and less responsive screen, which might account for some of the trouble.

People got used to it.

It mostly depends on the moisture and heat - the hotter the phone, the more likely is the screen to fail. Without moisture and with casual use it'll fail once a day or so. When playing a game, it can fail more than once an hour.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
It happens to all nexus ones, its a hardware problem. But it only happens about once or twice a week, so most people just live with it. Just turning off then on the screen fixes it, so only takes a second to clear the error.

Also heat seems to cause it, particularly when its charging.

I go weeks without ever seeing the issue. Other times I see it once a week. It sucks but not a huge deal really.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamjam11:
Hi guys,

Just a quick question.... if this problem is hardware and relates to the digitizer then is it worth just replacing the digitizer?

I notice you can purchase a replacement digitizer on eBay.

Is it worth a try? And if so, is the N1 easy to take apart?

I've taken other phones apart and repaired them so have some experience.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
If you replace it all you're doing is waisting your time. It will be the same thing. It is not like the digitizer is broken/failing or anything. It just sucks. Its not broken. Better way of thinking of it is a hardware limitation.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamjam11:
Hi guys,

Well, not wanting to be beaten by this screen problem, having suffered for over a year, I decided to take the plunge and buy a new digitizer off eBay. Cost about £20.

Found a couple of vids on Youtube which show you how to take the phone apart etc.

Two months on and all working fine. Not one single screen issue since replacing the digitizer.

Now a VERY happy Nexus One owner. Just wish Vodafone or HTC could have done the same thing on anyone of those four occasions I sent the phone for repair!!!

Now also running the MIUI custom OS... what a fantastic OS!!

:D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzaddict:
Well, I'm pretty surprised no one filed class action suit against Google or HTC for supplying faulty digitizers on Nexus One

---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:12 PM ----------

wow! which seller did you buy it from? is it an OEM part or third party? was the multi-touch issue fixed e.g. X-Y axis all over the place when fingers come too close together? does it now register more than 2 fingers?
