Be careful man you can **** up your arc by doing this you should unlock the bootloader first and if you worried about warranty it doesnt mean any thing man
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rusher01:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddyc0777:
i am trying to connect my galaxy note to my Infiniti g37 nav screen which has standard av input i was able to do this with my previous jail broken iphone but i have not been able to find any cords that will plug into mhl for standard av. Does anybody know of a way to do this or a place i can buy this type of cord i have seen a way to do a lengthy conversion process with mhl to hdmi out, hdmi to av converter box ,av cables to video in, but that's allot of cordage to try to squeeze into my center console and none of the converter boxes connect to car power port and would require an additional power adapter. so again to restate im looking for an easy way to connect my note to for video out to my av in device
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deargussy:
I have checked everywhere i can and have found nothing else on this issue.

My wife has a shift and the only email account she has on it is yahoo. When she opens up some of her emails, she can start reading them and then about 10 - 15 seconds later the email disappears. She hits the back button and the email is still there, but when she clicks on it and pulls it up it is blank. I have deleted the account and re-installed it, I have changed the incoming and outgoing servers, and have done hard reboots with no fixes. Any suggestions?

I personally have an evo 4g with no problems.

Thanks
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
If your rooted, you can try deleting the account. After that boot into Recovery, Wipe Dalvik, wipe Cache, and then Reboot. When it's done rebooting and has settled down. Add the account back on. See if that resolves the issue.

My mothers phone is doing the same thing right now, and her phone is rooted.

I did notice a small fix for my mother phone and that was this. I was not able to find a fix for gmail on the mail app.

The stock settings for yahoo email shows as

htc.imap.mail.yahoo.com

ssl 993

htc.smtp.mail.yahoo.com

ssl 465

I changed it too:

so all i did was cut out the "htc."

imap.mail.yahoo.com

ssl 993

smtp.mail.yahoo.com

ssl 465
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HolyShift:
me too.

Both my girlfriend and I have this same problem. We both only have one account in the stock mail app and it's Yahoo. I was hoping that rooting and moving to a different ROM would help fix this, but nope.

This happened to me unrooted as well. I am currently running x99's rooted OTA GB release so I'm wondering if it is something within the stock e-mail app. I've tried others before and prefer the integration and features of the stock app. So, if anyone comes up with something let us know.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:
Word of advice: STOP USING YAHOO MAIL AND SWITCH TO GMAIL.

I'm not saying this to be a troll, ****, or jerk. Yahoo mail is majorly flawed. I highly suggest to get off hotmail, windows live mail, yahoo mail, aol mail and aim.com mail ASAP.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HolyShift:
"I'm not saying this to be a troll, ****, or jerk"

Then you won't mind educating me on how Yahoo Mail is majorly flawed. I've been using it since 1997 and have had very little to no complaints about it. Unfortunately I just realized I didn't wipe as well as I could have before flashing x99's ROM so I'm hoping a redo of that will fix my issue. Still doesn't make sense for the non-rooted stock people though.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:
1) Bad spam filtering - real email gets blocked while spam gets through.

2) Bad email server verification see 1

3) Bad interface

4) Lots of fake accounts, bad account security

5) Yahoo will be bankrupt soon if not bought by another company

6) You're using a Google phone, to use yahoo mail, when you could be using the native Gmail client and not have these issues in the first place, have all your contacts, calendar, and email synced and backed up in the google cloud.

So again what's the point of even bothering?

I recommend signing up for a google account and moving everything over. It's really not that hard or painful. Just connect with Outlook via POP3/IMAP, export to PST, connect to GMAIL, import PST from Yahoo, update all your online accounts until email stops coming in to your yahoo account.

This is a bug in Android ICS, widgets won't show in the list until you do some activity, or you can restart the phone or kill the launcher.

Hmm, can you go to the menu and activate the hotspot/tether without the Widget?

perhaps it is being blocked by your provider? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cirovladimir:
Search the 1x1 "settings" widget and drag it to your preferred screen. Once you've done that it will prompt which option it should activate, just select hotspot and it will open that option.

If you want it to activate/deactivate directly you will have to use other widget such as the ones advised here.
[Droid X General] JayGoat:
OK, I would have posted this in the Liberty3 thread in the Droid X Android Development forum but I guess I need to have more than 10 posts to do so. I admit I've never really posted on here before as I've always used Android Central. This is my first time using a custom ROM so I knew I needed to come here. But enough of that and onto the bugs.

When I go into Menu>Settings>Liberty Settings>Status Bar and then try to uncheck the Hide Alarm Icon it works but then when I back out of it will default to checked again. So my setting won't save.

The second one is also in the Liberty Settings. When I click Pulldown Text and try to save my text, "Jay's Droid", Liberty Settings will force close and never save the custom text. However when I write "Jay Droid" it will save and ask me to reset the Statusbar and it works. So I guess it does't like apostrophes?

Just trying to get these bugs to the developer.
[Droid X General] hootowlserenade:
Have same issues... however my alarm will show in status bar even though if I go into settings and see the "hide alarm" is checked after I unselected it... it somehow knows still... the pulldown text has been touch and go since version 1.0 for me, most times if you change it it'll take more than 1 reboot for it to show.

sent from my Droid X running Liberty 3
[Droid X General] JayGoat:
Well found a few more bugs. First, with a screenshot, is the battery percentage on the pattern lock screen. When the battery is low it just dispays "%d%%" instead of the battery percentage. The screenshot is attached to this post.

Second, there seems to be something screwy with the ringtones. First, several of the stock ones turn up twice in the list when you go to change the ringtone. However, if you go to where they are through the Root File Explorer you can verify they are only in there once. Also, on the stock ROM, I was able to delete the ringtones I didn't want and copy my custom ones over to the system file without any problems. Now when I do it on this ROM I get problems. If I would try to change ringtones after I either deleted any stock tones or added my custom ones it will cause the settings to force close. So for now I'm just leaving the ringtones alone and leaving my custom tones on my SD card.

But this ROM is still amazing for the speed and stability when overclocked to 1.25GHz. I can't get over the no lag.
[Droid X General] JayGoat:
Yeah I too notice now that the alarm will still show in the status bar which is good. I would never turn it off anyway so it isn't a big deal to me that it stays on and neither is the pulldown text. Just thought I would try and let the developer know.
[Droid X General] D-man3490:
Thanks for the info
[Droid X General] JayGoat:
Anyone having any problems with Google Music? It now keeps force closing on me whenever I go to play a song. All my songs are on Google's servers and none are on my SD card. The only way to stop to force closing is to re-flash Liberty and then a few days later it starts all over again.
[Droid X General] JayGoat:
Never mind. I figured that one out quickly. Turns out, if you block ads through the ROM Toolbox app, it blocks something in Google Music that will cause it to Force Close when you go to stream your music from the cloud.
[Droid X General] jag28co:
Thanks Jay.
[Droid X General] turdfergeson:
I had the same issue with my Bionic.(Local files in Google Music played fine, but received Force Close errors when streaming from the cloud) I didn't want to settle with ads so I manually edited the hosts file (/system/etc/hosts) and found that there was no entry for 127.0.0.1 localhost. After adding this as the first entry to the custom list from Ad Blocker in the ROM Toolbox I no longer had FCs streaming with Google Music.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ishan Sardar:

ermm what happen?

EDIT: I opened the battery, the sim, the sdcard and put them back in and its gone....i wonder why did it happened?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxtorxtremewow:
This is totally normal, has happened to me many times and also on other phones.

It's just that you lost network coverage and when you restarted the phone, it re-searched for coverage.

If this happens again, you can do this manually by going to Settings --> Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network operators.

Then choose your default service provider and make sure Search mode is set to Search Automatically.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnshine:
What's up, guys? I'm thinking about trading my SGS4G for this model (the Vibrant), just for the sake of saving $10/month on my T-Mobile bill (the 4G phones only give you 200mb or 5gb options, whereas the 3G phones give you a middle-of-the-road 2GB option for cheaper). NOT TO MENTION the fact that the Vibrant has access to amazing ROMs like CM7 and MIUI.

All that aside, I was wondering if you guys could give me some pointers...

1) Is this a terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad idea?

2) Are 3G speeds pretty decent? Am I going to miss 4G?

3) What DOESN'T work when it comes to MIUI and CM7? GPS?

4) What's your favorite custom ROM / mod on this phone?

5) Any other tips?

I'm used to using CWM and Odin and Heimdall, so I don't think it will be much of a transition. And as far as I can tell, the 3G and 4G models have almost everything in common (minus the data speeds, Bluetooth EDR, and perhaps battery life).

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts, hope I posted in the right section.

Cheers!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] accordex:
CM7/Miui is fully functional, aside from gps..it works, but barely and needs a restart if you want to use it again. All these custom roms you want, however are not capable of making 911 calls,so some devs are dropping them anyways.

I don't think you'll notice a bit of difference between 3g and 4g (as far as the GSG4g anyways, seeing as it's not capable of HSPA+)

If your phone works for you, keep it...otherwise sacrifice gps quality and no 911 in an emergency. Hope this helps
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnshine:
Thanks! That's very helpful. I am running GB on my SGS4G, but honestly there are very few noticeable differences b/twn GB and Froyo (nothing I will miss at least) so I'm not terribly worried about that.

I've always loved MIUI, and it's quite crippled on the SGS4G. As far as MIUI goes (not CM7), is it crippled in any way? I'm not worried about E911, but I am a bit worried about GPS.

I also want to take it in but dont want sprint finding out about the water damage. Is there a loophole?

Shifted from my EVO
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Well first things first. Turn it off, pull the battery. Do not try to restart it. You have several choices to dry it out. One really and proven one is rice. Fill a container half way with rice. Then stick your phone in the rice with the battery out, and the cover off. Push it down into the rice, and let it stay there for at least two days in a warm dry place. The other was actually used by a member here on XDA. He used is a Dehydrator. Not sure of the details, but it definately worked. I'd say set it on low and leave it there for at least 24hrs. Sprint can tell if the phone has been dropped in water by checking the water damage indicators. On the phone itself, and the battery. They're Red checkered squares. They turn bright Red when dropped in water. Although it has been proven they're not very reliable.
[EVO Shift 4G General] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
