[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rype89:
I've got my tab now and have been messing with it for awhile without much success. I tried this...

1. reboot into cwm recovery

2. install deodexed stock rom via cwm

3. install cwm non-tw (from the thread)

and that resulted in a reboot-loop. So I can't go straight to cwm and have to install stock using ODIN first? okay help me out here a little, I'm still not sure what or where ODIN is...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rype89:
okay I managed to get it to work after many tries. I used odin(which i think i didn't need to).. then installed the deodexed stock rom, pershoot's kernel, and non-tw..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poisike:
Like i already said, first you need to install stock KH7 using odin.

Glad you got it working.
[HTC Sensation] Mr_Boob_Burglar:
The first rom that I ever put on my phone was Insert Coin 1.0.9... One of the things that it does when I switch to other roms is when I press the power button to put it in standby or turn it on from standby it looks like it comes on and goes off like a tube tv... Now Im not sure but I also use Coredroid which has the screen shot feature and Im not sure but I dont think I can use it cause of the way the phone does the tv tube thing when going to standby Im not sure... Can someone tell me just how to get that off at least?
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
CRT animations. Here's the solution: you didn't really make it clear what rom you are on right now but if you're on CoreDroid, go to settings, tweaks, and unchecked both the screen on and screen off animations. Just so you know, they don't affect your ability to take screenshots.
[HTC Sensation] Mr_Boob_Burglar:
Sorry im using insertcoin 1.0.9 right now but thanks for that info i think im going to go back to coredroid tonight
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xybadog:
Whenever I sync my phone contacts after flashing a new ROM I get many duplicates. For example contact 1 will only appear once in my people list but it's synced to two phone contact entries. I'm talking purely about phone contacts and not google contacts.

I want to keep them on my phone as opposed to Google or the sim because I travel a lot and use different sim cards in different countries so it's easier for all my contacts to be on the phone.

Why might I be getting duplicates on most of my contacts and what can I do to stop this happening. I'm guessing it's something to do with backing up but I might be wrong.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppmal:
duplicate contacts

To detect and delete/merge duplicate contacts, one may think to login to google account. Find the option of "find and merge duplicate contacts" under contacts. May be taking long time, seems to be simple and useful. Try.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thylux:
Maybe those contacts have their phone numbers shared in their public Google profile.

Are both phone contacts of the same type?

I think that Google also backups up phone contacts if you activated that service. Not the same as syncing to a Google Contact.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dqb:
You can also export contact as vcard (contact.vcf).

I don't use google service so that's how i do :

In contact, menu, import/export and export contacts to SD.

When you need it, import contacts from SD.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budgemano:
So here is my problem. I have been rooted on my Thunderbolt since I got it, though I never ended up putting on any new roms or anything (was more into it with my D1, but I regress). Anyways, today I notice my power button has crapped out on me. It still sticks out fine and I can very easily press it, but it does nothing. Currently my only way to turn the screen on and off is to unplug it, not a viable solution long term.

I decided that since I have insurance I will just take it in and have Verizon replace it for me. Which means I need to go to stock. Downloaded the PG05IMG file and placed it on the root, went through adb and got all the way to the bootloader. Except I can't select any menu options with he power button! So I was stuck. Decided to try and flash the PG05IMG file using Rom Manager, which got me back to stock but with root permissions (where I was before essentially).

So, is there some way for me to actually unroot this phone completely while avoiding the bootloader? Perhaps I downloaded a stock with root access rom instead of a normal one by mistake, but I was following exactly an unroot tutorial. Just worried, since the phone is almost unusable as a mobile device right now and it will take the Verizon guy all of 5 seconds to scroll down my app drawer and see SuperUser.

Thanks for any help, love XDA
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voxigenboy:
well...

you could either take it to a local cell phone repair shop and have them fix the button....

or...

if your phone somehow got lost or stolen, there's always that route.......

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBO1018:
Have you tried using something like a pen or paperclip to press the power button? Not a long term solution but could get you back to stock if it works.

Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budgemano:
I have been trying with a sewing needle right now. Same idea as the paper clip, but I can't seem to find where the contact point is. Either that or it isn't the button that is bad but instead the contact. Don't know how to get around the latter problem.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budgemano:
Think I got it :p

So using adb and going into the bootloader never worked, still needed to click the power button to select the options. However, getting into the bootloader by holding volume down and doing a battery pull got me through and started the process automatically.

After it flashed I checked again and I have S-ON and no super user
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aegrotatio:
I've installed Cyonogen V7 and Phiremod Test 2 CM7 and suddenly I've found that my Nook Color's "n" button stopped working. I've tried flashing Phiremod twice as was suggested in another forum but it's still not working.

First, has anyone got a quick fix for this?

Second, what is the "n" button, is it a Home or a Back button?

Thanks!! :confused:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aegrotatio:
This problem seems to be endemic to Phiremod.

The latest CM 7-08312011 nightly and it has no apparent problems with the "n" key.

I think it's assigned as "Home" on a Nook Color. Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aegrotatio:
I found that the "n" button is a "Home" button as far as I can tell.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
I have the APK file for the new version of NetFlix 1.4.1. I have tested this on a Rooted 3.2 Xoom with the Arcturus 1.3.1 Kernel.

download HERE

Enjoy and I do not support this APK file. I just wanted to post the update for others who cannot get any APK files. On the Marketplace it only says "Minor Fixes" for version 1.4.1

Install Instructions

1. download and put APK file on Xoom

2. in a File Explorer (Search Android Market - I use File Manager Honeycomb) click APK file

3. follow instuctions
[Xoom Themes and Apps] B Dizzle:
Browsing through the movies seems real slow with the new version.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] SuicideMyk:
capable of doing full screen ?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
no problems here
[Xoom Themes and Apps] B Dizzle:
Strange after a reboot scrolling is fine. Runs great!

Still giving me errors in Canada, this is so lame... I have Netflix running on all my other devices.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] phdemartin:
Works perfectly in Chile on my rooted wifi tiaimat 2.1 thank's to the new international netflix move
[Xoom Themes and Apps] lhurtado:
Hi, did you do something special? I'm in Chile too, but I get a message about update my device. I'm on Tiamat 2.2 btw.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] phdemartin:
Nothing special, just sign up to the free 30 days for the new service, tried to install the 1.3 manually, but without success, and after , get the 1.4 from this forum and install it, replacing the old one, and it works.... hdmi out (video and sound) also on my 37''LCD.

Since I don't have any windows PC ( Just Linux ) that is my only device able to play netflix.... outside of virtual machine and other tweaks of course ;=)

I'm running on the 2.1 Taimat rom with a overclocked kernel 2.6.36.4
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
You should try to get the apk from your other devices. I use AppMonster to get the off my phone.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] BlackDino:
Its the same apk, the Canadian Netflix probably checks the build.prop which is different for us running a custom build
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
If it is the same then wouldn't act the same? I just thought if it was country or region specific then it would hurt for him to try the Netflix from his own phone on his device.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] phdemartin:
Just upgraded to Taimat 2.2, still work perfectly :D

No luck in Switzerland

doesn't work here. On vacation in Europe - tried using my US netflix account using VPN on my Tab 10.1 - no luck. I don't know how they block it on Android - works perfectly well on my wife's iPad, using the same method.

Mine also came from the US
[Xoom Themes and Apps] phdemartin:

[Xoom Themes and Apps] playya:
Just keep trying it, that seems to be a bug with Netflix on our Xooms but the keyboard will come up if you just keep trying...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] SuicideMyk:
cancelled my netfux account during free trial. I was really unhappy with the quality even on my HDTV's and the selection of movies stunk, plus the one main reason no new releases !
[Xoom Themes and Apps] sibble-comp:
Same here sadly. And I have an officially supported device too, the T-Mobile G2, it loads up my Netfix Canada account just fine, but pops this error when I try to play anything including shows I've already started, then stopped watching on other officially supported devices.

This device cannot instantly stream from Netflix in your area. Visit

ca.netflix.com/NRD to see a full list of devices that instantly stream

from Netflix.

Oddly enough my Netgear NTV250 (Roku) STB works fine and it's a USA device and is not officially supported by Netflix Canada. One day about 6-8 months ago after a firmware upgrade it just started working fine. When I hit Canadian licensed content, it would play, when I hit USA licensed content it wouldn't.

I called Netflix Canada and asked about this yesterday and they basically parroted the line that the Android App for Canada is not ready yet and they'll let all their customers know through the usual channels when it is.

:-(
[Xoom Themes and Apps] shymog:
Does the latest update still send the crappy low-quality stream of the previous version? I can deal with it on my phone, but not on my tablet, it looks like complete garbage with the increased screen size and resolution.

EDIT: I haven't tried, of course, since my trial lapsed, but if the quality would be increased, then I would potentially return.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] johnnycham28:
give it like a min to balance out, the quality gets better. i was quite disappointed at 1st and was like. wtf, its unwatchable in full screen!. then it gets sharper within 30 secs into play.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
I am not sure why a few are angry about the quality of Netflix. It has always ran in HD for me on the xoom. My younger kids really like it and use it on Xbox with the same results. I am very pleased and at $8.36 with tax it is the cheapest form of entertainment for us.

One of the things Netflix fixed in version 1.4 is it is available for all Android phones. There wasn't much other than they did get optomize it a bit.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] MadeeBee:
Just installed it and worked on first try. No issues!

Netflix 1.4.1

Looks like version 1.4.1 was released today. Can anyone download it from the Market? My version 1.4 keeps saying there is an update available and takes me to the Market to download it but it won't download.

It doesn't even show-up for me in the market. Can anyone post the apk?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] stlsaint:
I was able to install with no errors. But I am still unable to play anything due to location which I understand cause hulu isn't allowed here neither. I'm a soldier stationed in Kuwait and this is what I got....

Shame really but for development purposes I was able to install on 3g xoom rooted with tiamat 2.2!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Lokks:

Thank u no more annoying pop up
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
I just got it uploaded and will change the link on the first post. I had to wait until my lunch break because I was busy at work this morning
[Xoom Themes and Apps] DarkTharen:
I wonder if it is because your internet connection is in Kuwait. Just off the top of my head it looks like it not only checks the devices location and the internet connection location in this case the 3G. If I was God (I am not) I would definitely make it work you so that you guys (Soldiers over seas!) could have all the comforts of home.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] yomonk1:
Hate to ask, but can someone give the steps to load this to an unrooted Xoom? Thanks so much.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] sibble-comp:
Yeah works fine on my rooted Bell Desire Z (2.3.3 on Fido) but not on my unrooted TMobile G2 (2.3.4 on Mobilicity)

By works fine, I mean it plays the movies on the DZ but gives an error about updating the software on my phone on the G2. In both cases they access my Canadian Netflix account without issue. In the former case I used market enabler to install it but in the latter case downloaded the apk from the net.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
Use proxydroid and open up Netflix and then it'll be unlocked for use without us proxy
[Xoom Themes and Apps] maximus192ad:
FYI, the Netflix app has been updated in the Market to now work on Honeycomb (3.X)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] dalvarez7:
I saw an article saying it was released for honeycomb but still don't see it in the Market on my Xoom.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see it now.
[Galaxy S II General] rage77:
Hi!

Is it possible to flash a stock rom with cwm?

I'm currently on Cyanogenmod nightly #36 but am experiencing volume problems. I can barely hear the people I call and the volume just won't go higher. I want to see if the problem exists on stock rom and in that case return the phone for repair.

What rom is closest to original and can be flashed through clockworkmod? Is there even one that can be handled through rom manager?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
That will be the same reply again.

No

jje
[Galaxy S II General] meranto:
Off course you made a backup of your stock rom with CWM before flashing Cyanogenmod, not? Just restore it.

Else do it via Download Mode/Odin, find the stock rom somewhere on this forum.

halp?

Seems the media scanner is not working at all in my phone.

I tried lotus mod 1.8 and 1.6 today both ROMs don't show any media files (mp3).

[Wildfire General] xtothec:
And you have this issue with all the music players ?
[Wildfire General] andyj1610:
Yes, PowerAMP works as it shows folders as well (but in library mode, no files are visible). Every player using music library for playback has this prob.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fedor_007:
Can anybody tell me whether it's possible to install android on a tablet pc? E.g. I've got gm10 android tablet pc with android 2.2 on it. It works not so good. E.g.: I can't even log in skype. I can't even install apps from android market. I can't view flash, i can't, i can't. Hardware seems to be well supported. So, my questions: Is there any chance to get it working fine? Is it possible to install android 2.3 or android 3.* on it? Will it support the hardware? Where can i get needed drivers? Can I get them from the currently installed android 2.2? Can I make it forget my e-mail address? Where is android.git.kernel.org? I can't get access to it. (i have another tablet pc as well and i want to install new android on it as well, so it is a common question)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fedor_007:
Kernel.org is hacked.

I can restore factory settings by pressing Volume Down + Home + Power.

New flash 10.3 seems to support android 2.2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo.:
Hello,

I'm about to get my SGS-II and I don't know where to get started.

I've tried to search threads but there's no sticky which states about rooting or Bootloader unlocking. Just few questions.

1> Is there a thread for BL unlocking?

2> Do we have any failsafe or BL or are the phones brickable?

3> Where do I find how to root?

4> There are SO MANY Roms, I'm confused which of them to choose. Everything appears to be the same. (are they from the same Samsung Roms? Tweakked etc?)

5> How do Install CWM recovery?

Any video tutorial links or anything, that's needed are appreciated.

PS: I read FAQ & stickes. Just letting you guys, I did my homework ;)

- R
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
1. No need BL are not locked

2. These phones are not as sensitive to bricking. Just make sure to follow the directions carefully.

3. The easiest method is cf-root. More info here

4.All custom roms are derived from samsung roms and have unique theming and tweaking options. It's really gonna be up to you to see which one suits you best.

5. CWM recovery will be installed automatically once you flash the cf-root kernel
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo.:
Thanks for your reply.

1) I'd like to know if we have OC/UV kernels ? Sorry, I'm coming from xperia x10 and I've got no clue where to get started :)

2) Do we have GPU Overclocking?

3) What is vodoo mod? (Sorry never had it for x10)

Thanks for everything. I just wanted to be organized in my questions for better understanding!

[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
Hey guys, my phones vibrate function has slowly been getting worse and worse, I can hardly feel haptic vibrate when I hit keys on the keyboard and it sounds like absolute hell when a text vibration happens or if someone is calling me. Any suggestions? I don't want to have to unroot and bring it to Sprint just yet..
[HTC EVO 3D] Semantics:
Is it every ROM? I know for a fact that on some ROMS the haptic feedback is nearly non-existent and others its fantastic.
[HTC EVO 3D] PaulB007:
This is good to know, I am using clean rom and am going to check with the rom handler.
[HTC EVO 3D] faiyo:
I just swapped my vibration motor because it was weak. HTC shipped more than one type of motor and when I replaced the motherboard it came with the weaker type. You can tell the difference visually, the stronger motor looks like two domes (big and small) while the weaker motor has one dome and two ridges on the other side of it.

Anyways, I wanted to explain how to replace a dead/weak motor. It's really easy to do. There is no need to solder or unclip it. You can find motors by searching google. They are under $5. If u buy a motherboard it will come with one too. Use the description I gave to discern what type ur buying.

Remove your battery and sd card. Search youtube for the evo 3d teardown video. Follow the first two steps: remove the 6 screws and crack open the back wit your fingernails. Now you can see the motor.

Unplug the motor connector. Lift the motor straight up and out of it's cradle/box using ur fingernails. It's not secured in any way. It just slides out.

I think there will be a few people doing this now that we have a good ICS & sense 4 rom. The vibration on these new roms is much softer and I couldn't feel it with the weak type motor. It just made bump sound.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Damn, we should switch vibration motors. I actually prefer a softer one like how it was on the Evo 4G, but mine has insanely strong vibrations.
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
I agree with you on this. Mine was so strong it even felt like it rattled! found a solution though. Remove one of the scripts (soft or medium) from the attached zip file and place it in your init.d folder to decrease vibration. Stock value is 3000 but I adjusted the script to 2500 and it is close to perfect for me now.
[HTC EVO 3D] MorePAIN:
Personally don't have a problem with that but good fix just in case
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Could I increase my vibratory power with this script?
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
I would think that is certainly possible. Maybe increase to 3500. Try at your own risk since this is actually increasing voltage to the motor. i have no idea what the motors top voltage is rated.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
I'll try this and report back, my vibration is decent but not as strong as when I got the phone, will report back
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
That's awesome didn't know this thing was around. Lol I like a stinger vibration at least for the vibrate and ring the rest could be whatever.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
As I type this I can feel a small difference in the keyboard, haptic is almost the same with 3500,which side of the phone is the vibrator on?? I'm charging and the part above the camera feels hot

Edit: just got a text, omg the vibration is strong! And I like it lol (no homo)
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
Awesome. Glad it worked out for ya.
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Hopefully this doesn't burn out the motor... You get a thanks sir!
[HTC EVO 3D] snowmobiledog:
Dang it, I just purchased one to replace my old vibration motor (I accidentally left mine on vibrate for an alarm and slept through it for about an hour and a half) and realized it's the weaker of the two you described.
