[Motorola Droid Bionic] junksecret:
I am a bit confused (as usual). When I first rooted my phone I installed "bootstrap" and immediately created a nandroid backup using the CWR that was included. I then installed ROM Manager and it updated me to the newest CWR and I created another nandroid.

I looked and I actually made 5 nandroids total and am not sure what version of CWR I used to create each one since they are named with date and time only. It appears the last one I made I named the nandroid beginning with cwr_5.0.2.5 so I know which version that nandroid was created with.

My questions are (1) If I restore one of the nandroids do I need to do it using the same release of CWR that I used to create it? (2) Is there any way to determine which version I used creating the other 4?

Thanks

HTC I bought off CL has no sound. Guy flashed it on cricket. I tried flashing back to stock rom and relocked the phone but no avail. No sound when plugging in headphones either, but icon shows up. Any suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Were you told anything about it?

Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] havieri23:
From the seller? No
[HTC EVO 3D] havieri23:
Don't think it's the volume button. I used volume + app to turn the system volume all the way up
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
I have an Amaze 4G with the following problem:

Inbound calls / messages do not "connect" with the Contact app - the caller ID / message shows "unknown" caller even though the caller / SMS sender is in the Contact list.

By going to the Contact in the list and editing the contact, sometimes they'll start showing up correctly in the Phone / Messaging apps, but then after some time, they stop showing up.

It's the ONLY problem I have with the phone but it's a dealbreaker. T-Mo support is clueless. Please help me solve the problem and keep this otherwise awesome phone!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:
Do you have the number saved on your sim, trying importing them to your phone and on a google account if it's anywhere else.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
u have stock or custom rom? cuz I remember once there was a version of Xboarder's rom, beastmod I think, that was not showing the contact name although it was saved in the contact list
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
Contacts are stored only on Google. There are none on the SIM or anywhere else. Process is:

1. Factory reset phone

2. Log in to Google account

3. Wait for sync

4. Call / message phone

5. Call / message from "unknown" even though caller is in Contacts

Running stock / virgin Sense.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xda_23:
Same here, I haven't even rooted/unlocked the phone (yet), sometime the phone shows the contact, sometime not.

I stored my contact everywhere; sim, phone and google !!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] dmurray074:
Have had the same issue. It seems that it only happens to me when I have had data turned off for a while at work.(horrible reception there so I turn off to save some battery) seems to work just fine after about 20 min or so or a restart.
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
Yep, same here.

How many contacts do you have? For me and my wife the problem seemed to crop up at 5000 contacts.
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
For me, I have stock rom, and only Google contacts. None on sim, no Facebook, no tmobile backup.
[HTC Amaze 4G] riprowan:
FWIW I don't have 5000+ contacts on my phone, but I have that many on Google. But I think Sense downloads all of them to the phone even if you only select one group.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante2086:
In my Toyota Avensis 2010, I paired my SGS2 to it's bluetooth audio system. Everything works great except this really annoying thing, where everytime the music stops for any reason, the track starts from the beginning again. If i press pause on the car"s controls, when i wanna resume, the track restarts (defeating the whole idea of a pause button), if I make a call, the track restarts, if the car is in acc mode and the start the engine, the track restarts. Really annoying. My Xperia X10 did not do this, and neither does my bold 9900. I use the stock player, on stock rom, 2.3.5. This doesn"t happen with poweramp, but then i don't like the fact that power amp does not transmit audio information.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prasad:
Try another player. Winamp, maybe?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumitpathak:
Yes it is the problem with stock player.

Try using this:

It works fine with me.
[Motorola Droid X2] tw1tch210:
I recently got Molten v2.3, and deleted the camera click ogg file, cause I never want it to sound. However, all of my camera apps (two now, used to be three) still have the same sound, and I can't find the sound in any of the system/media folders.

Really want it gone, thanks in advance.

I have looked around a lot too, and can't find something that works.

I should mention that the two apps are stock and camera zoom. Both make same sound which is different then before so I'm assuming its molten related.
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
More than likely they're embedded in their apk. Do those apps have an option to turn the click off?
[Motorola Droid X2] tw1tch210:
Camera ZOOM does, it doesn't work, rooted or unrooted. Unrooted I had been able to use a couple sound managing programs to silence it but that doesn't work now. How would I go about changing the app?
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
I wish I had a reply for you on that. I know it has to do with unpacking the apk on your computer, making the edit of the file(s), repacking the apk and signing. Check around the site and I'm sure you'll find the answer. Wish I had a better answer for that. Maybe someone else will step in with a better answer than mine.
[Motorola Droid X2] tw1tch210:
That's more of an answer than I had, so thanks. Will probably just get a different app lol
[Motorola Droid X2] grnsl2:
Not that this helps yet but I know I've seen this somewhere end of last year. If I remember I think it was a change to the file that actually made the sound. Racking my brain to remember what it was or the forum I found it in... crap. Ill let you know if I find it.

Edit: system/media/audio/ui

camera_click I renamed to camera_click.bak

I think this is what I used and it worked for me. You're hearing the typical camera shutter sound? If I remember, that camera sound was much simpler, not the traditional shutter, more of a click with that rom. Must be something different.

Running 1.3 eclipse atm.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrsandi:
Hi guys,

I have my new Galaxy Nexus unbranded, here in Costa Rica we have some carriers, the main one ICE (Green frog), and others like, claro, movistar, tuyo movil, the thing is the nexus does not recognize the main carrier sim card but if you try with tUYO sim card it works great.

I attached the picture of both sim cards.

I really appreciated any help or suggestions.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kirdroid:
The one on the left looks like the normal one based on the chip position. The one on the right looks odd, may be a very old sim? Can't you exchange for a newer sim and try?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kentamayo:
I'm having the same kind of issue, I've already unlocked the boot loader, rooted and reset everything on the phone and only one type of SIM card is read, I've tried 3 different SIMs and only one seems to work, none of my postpaid lines will work either, it seems that only that particular pattern will read on the Galaxy Nexus, has anyone else had this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] walidhiphop:
This is not an issue with the Gnex....it is with the sim cards.....there is a plenty of phones (even cheap ones) that don't read some sim cards witch have a specific scheme ......i have some experience with that.......

Plus....the Gnex with 4.0.1 doesn't read sim cards with a pin lock....it's a bug......
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] novo2393:
looks like the sim cards are not the same as the "main stream" or most common sim cards. i reccomend trying a sim card were the chip is like most others.

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

mines read my sim card on 4.0.1 and same with my wife 4.0.1, both pin locked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kentamayo:
Thanks for the replies, but the weird thing is, among the SIMs that don't work the one on the end of the photo I just posted is the same pattern as the one that works. So if I understand this correctly, unless my carrier uses the exact same SIM for postpaid lines as the prepaid one that works, I have no hope of using my unlimited Data plan with my GNex?

Does this also mean that even if the SIM will work on an HTC Flyer, iPad, iPhone & Huawei E5 Modem, and it doesn't work on the GNex, it's still the SIM card at fault? I'm really having a hard time wrapping my head around this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moe6:
Have you tried getting a fresh replacement sim from your carrier(s)? All those sims look pretty old to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kentamayo:
Except for the cut Micro-SIM, all of those are brand new
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moe6:
Carrier has no alts? Over here they do, and tbh, I haven't seen sims in those designs (apart from the cut one) in quite a few years. They look like 2004~ sims (at least thats when they looked like that over here)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kentamayo:
Our Telcos are terribly inconsistent with regards to their SIM cards, the newest one in the bunch is in between the cut SIM and the OK SIM, I just find it irritating that I can't use my Main SIM card with the GNex, for now I'm stuck with the prepaid one that's OK. :p

Anyone know how to somehow reset IE? Everytime i search something in the browser address bar it directs me to google hong kong, which of course i can't read chinese so im not sure if theres some kind of preference page on google
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
How'd you get it to use Google? I can't see a way to change from Bing.
[Nokia Lumia 800] iphonepimp:
In your internet explorer settings? drag up the 3 dots and you can change your search from bing, yahoo or google
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Don't have that option. How odd :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] amritpal2489:
i also dont have this option
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
Maybe yours original PC is for Japan?
[Nokia Lumia 800] rayu1:
i can read chinese :)

but i think you may change the setting of language of the phone

i remember there is one about the area
[Nokia Lumia 800] iphonepimp:
Settings > Applications > Internet Explorer > Default search provider > Yahoo, google, or bing?

No?

I bought mine factory unlocked from a nokia store so...
[Nokia Lumia 800] iphonepimp:
Sorry for double post... But yeah i changed everything to UK and its still directing me to google hong kong.

Could you check google.com.hk and see if theres any preference i could change within google to send me to the regular google?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
No default search provider for me, my only options are desktop/mobile sites and what to open links from apps in.

My phone came direct from Nokia, not branded or anything.
[Motorola Droid X2] Meany105:
So here's my problem. My Ps3 has been banned from my parents WiFi (despite my being a straight A student, captain of the golf and soccer teams, and working fulltime in the summers. Any who, I still have access to the WiFi through my phone and was wondering if I could use the droids built in tethering to create a wireless access point for the ps3?

Here's the unique part, I bought the phone myself off of ebay and it has a bad esn (so WiFi only).

Is this possible? If itI matters, I have access to the network settings and can change a couple of less noticeable settings but I can't just unblock the ps3 as that would be noticed and followed up with a password change.
[Motorola Droid X2] dragonzkiller:
WIFI Tethering is through 3G only
[Motorola Droid X2] Meany105:
Really? I've read on a couple sites about there being a mobile AP settings menu under the wireless and networks settings menu of some phones, this isn't present on mine (eclipse 1.3).

What about setting up bluetooth dun on a pc, and then setting up a wireless access point (on the DROID) using the bluetooth in place of 3G?
[Motorola Droid X2] dragonzkiller:
I'm sure that in theory there is a way to EVENTUALLY get it working. But if you're trying to get a PS3 working through tethering and you mention Bluetooth in that, you're getting nowhere fast. Bluetooth is insanely slow.
[Motorola Droid X2] Meany105:
On a good day, my internet tops out at 1mbps max. Isn't that the top speed of bluetooth 2.1 or is it 512kbps or am I making a complete fool of my self?
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
If dragonzkiller says it will not work then you can be assured you will not get it to work.
[Motorola Droid X2] donlad:
The WiFi Tether app works on 3G only, as it uses your phone's WiFi card to broadcast a signal.

Unfortunately, the broadcast signal is Ad-hoc and the PS3 only connects to infrastructure, so even if you did get it to work on WiFi, the PS3 wouldn't read the Ad-hoc network that your phone was broadcasting.
[Motorola Droid X2] Meany105:
Alright I concede, oh well. Can't win them all

Thanks for the really speedy responses
[Motorola Droid X2] phieta:
Do your parents regularly regulate the router? Since you say you have access to the router's settings, are the ports the PS3 uses blocked or is the PS3's MAC address blocked? If it were those situations, you could change the blocked ports or MAC address by just one number. That way it still appears like the PS3 is being blocked. In the MAC address list, I'd also move the PS3 one to the middle so that it's not the last one on the list. This is based off the simple routers I've had in the past and my own experience growing up with restrictive parentals. If your steps creak, I also reccommend placing your footing away from the middle and close to the wall where the boards are nailed and flush. Also use your hands to better distribute the weight and at least avoid a really loud creak. If they are light sleepers, put your car in neutral and roll it out of the driveway. Don't start your car until you pushed your car down the road a bit. I have a lot more advice on the subject if you want. Just don't ask me what to do when your gf pinned you down in her foyeur at 2am and your phone butt dials your evil sister that will tell mom. There's no answer for that.
[Motorola Droid X2] slinker1:
Hehehe :D That is all
[Motorola Droid X2] Meany105:
Yeah, I considered that. Might do it if I get desperate after midterms end this week.

The stairway thing I've known for a while, but the car ones a good suggestion,

especially

since my car has a dying catalytic converterand makes more noise than a heavy metal band.

The part about the gf had to suck for you, but luckily I've got enough dirt on my siblings that I don't have to worry (too much)

One of my favorites is to wait until everyones asleep and then leave a note on the counter saying I had to go to school early to work on ____ if you end up not being able to get back before they wake up this covers you and if you get back before they wake up you can just destroy the note.
[Motorola Droid X2] ricovox:
Use PC as AP

Not sure if this is still a problem for you, but do you have a PC connected to the internet? If so, you can probably set up the PC as a wifi access point. This is really easy to do in Windows 7, and even easier in Linux (if you know what you're doing). There is also a program called Connectify that you can install to do this on Windows, but if you have Win 7, then all you need to do is run a few simple commands at the cmd prompt to set up your PC as a wifi AP.
[Motorola Droid X2] HitMyKush:
quit soccer and golf and take up basketball, only then will your parents see you are truly ready for their wifi waves

[Motorola Droid X2] theredvendetta:
Hockey is where it's at.

I am a fan of your username.

More to the point, though, is that I don't believe this to be possible. Tethering is designed to be an access point through 3G/4G.

It would be painfully slow anyway. With 40Mb/s broadband you would struggle to get 1Mb/s if you routed it through your phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:
Yes hockey is where its at

No, No, No. Quit all sports and pick up a guitar. Music makes people happy. And chicks like guys who can play the guitar. :D
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:
I prefer to play the violin personally...but I'm self taught and not all that good but I tell you it is an awesome feeling when you can make a violin sing in only the way a violin can
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I've always wanted to try out a violin. Never knew anyone with one to play though. Im self taught as well. Guitar, bass, drums and a little bit of piano. I love music
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:
The toughest part about the violin for me was finger position....notes are not too close together in the first position but in the third they are right on top of each other, but if you are just slightly off in either position the note is just sour and not right...but when you're on absolutely beautiful...also bow tension pressure etc is tough to get used to....you can get a cheap one for around 120-150 but if you love music you know how cheap instruments can be and sound

What happens if you come back and your note isn't there??
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kaiyen:
When the latest E4GT update came out, there were several comments about "locking" the phone via Titanium or something else to make the notifications go away. I'm running a custom ROM on it so the update just fails everytime.

I can't seem to find those threads _OR_ I can't seem to find the exact instructions on how to lock out the update. I have Titanium Pro but don't see the setting. I am sure I'm just an idiot and will gladly accept someone pointing that out to me if you can help...

thanks.

Target stores have the HTC Sensation 4G for T-Mobile FREE this week with no rebates etc. (with 2yr contract of course)

Keep an eye out if you live near a Target and are looking for phones, they are ALWAYS so much cheaper than any other place. 2 weeks ago they had the Galaxy SII for $99 and this week it is $149. I never knew they even sold phones, but now I am always watching their prices and laughing at everyone who purchases from the corporate stores!
[Member-Found Deals] cmarchi:
Where are you seeing this?

I'm looking on Target's website and not seeing it for less that $149.99. Just for fun I even used a Minneapolis zip code (from your profile) 55406 and not seeing it near you either. I'm in Denver.
[Member-Found Deals] Towle:
The Target Mobile website is ran by a different company than the "in store" Target Mobile, so the prices are always different. In the stores it is free.
[Member-Found Deals] cmarchi:
thanks! I'll call them
[General Questions and Answers] AllusionPDX:
Did quite a bit of searching before i finally gave in.

Normally i almost religiously back up everything...this time i did not...obviously...or i would be reflashing and simply reinstalling

now i did not brick my Samsung vitality, I am not that stupid...however i did try out metamorph being bored...and its really a small issue but something i cant for the life of me get rid of...

on the swipe down notifications bar the stock battery color is green...well mine is blue...and currently the text in the notification area...is dark grey on black...so i have to tilt the phone to see anything.

anybody have any ideas on how i can fix this? or have just a basic stock rom for the samsung vitality.
[General Questions and Answers] un4givn85:
there should be a notification bar color changer metamorph file for your phone

maybe even a text color changer

yeah its the text thats killing me, here sec lemme get a photo of it.

picture added its the black text on daaaark grey background, i just need to figure out how to change that text color to white

edit 2 picture is in edit box. wont let me post it otherwise.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chris4beta:
The game in question is Marble Blast! by Ezjoy Network. (I cannot post outside links yet, sorry)

On my first Galaxy Nexus I would play that game daily without any issue. I just got a replacement phone from Verizon yesterday (screen issues) and now every time I try and play the same game, my phone reboots on the "Loading Feint..." screen. I've heard Feint might not be compatible with ICS yet?

I see that the app was updated on Dec 31 and I didn't have auto-update enabled for that app, so on my old phone I was probably playing an earlier version of it. There is only one comment on the market from someone having a similar issue, with many more comments from people with galaxy nexus devices rating the game highly.

Two questions:

1. Can anyone else confirm phone rebooting with latest version of this game on a galaxy nexus?

2. This is my first android phone, so is it common for an errant app to be able to reboot the phone? I can see it crashing the app, but isn't rebooting the phone a little severe and something an app shouldn't be able to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
have you tried xda app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chris4beta:
Just installed and testing now. Seems to work fine. Does this app cause phone reboots for people too?
