[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SupremeRadicals:
Do a full wipe on your phone flash a stock rom and then wipe the cache and dalvik then flash the radio. It should work.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] GTraymond2820gy:
Is there any way to make the stock experience more smoother? That's the only reason I look at custom rooms
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] aesoprock:
I guess it's all about the usage you make on your smartphone and what do you expect it to do for you.

This is relative.

I prefer my smartphone to be stable, reliable and fairly customizeable (if that's a word). Custom roms are quite good, I think. It's just the need to explore and customize more... that makes us look further.

Long story short: know your smartphone limits, deal with them, and if you want a fresh start try new launchers, themes, ecc. :-)

Cheers.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SpaceCaker:
Or use custom stock roms

Or bareboners

Those are just a few apps and high speed

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] pyronia:
I prefer stock...u will have lots of issue when using custom one...

Now i use:

- Stock xwks2

- Convert rfs system to ext4

- Some build.prop tweaking

- Currently running without any init.d script!

Smooth, battery life is better then custom rom...:D

Hi guys.

I'm working on ICS ROMs, but there is a problem with keyboard.

The device thinks that there is a physical keyboard available so keyboard doesn't appear. I've tried many ways with no success.

Thanks.

Hi

My sd card is rammed pack,its 8gb so how i dont know lol,ive copied the contents to my laptop dp its backed up.

Right questions

I have vcard files on there,easy to spot?

My back ups are they internal or external?

General overview of my intentions..

To completeley erase all contents on phone and sd and start,i know also call recorder has 50 or so conversations stored

Basically yearly clean out and start again,
[Desire HD General] chrism.brunner:
Try reformatting your card. Since it's backed up to the computer. Reformat then copy all info back. Sometimes files don't get fully erased and fill up your card.

if you have made multiple backups that is where all of it is
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crunchycrab:
Hello XDA forums! I am looking for someone to point me in the right direction while I try to upgrade my Bionic. I am not super savvy with this phone at the moment. I bought it right when it came out and rooted it as soon as there was a way to do so. I am running the stock rom. Other important info(at least I think so):

System version: 5.5.886

Android version: 2.3.4

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7

Build number: 5.5.1

So thats what I'm running rooted. I upgraded to this point, I believe using an update.zip to keep the root I had on the phone. My phone has been yelling at me for weeks now to upgrade to 5.5.893. I have been lazy and did not want to deal with setting up my interface again, BUT its time I dealt with this.

I'm looking for someone to tell me how I should upgrade unofficially keeping the root in the process or just updating officially and then rerooting. I am able to pick up on these processes so even just links to the right threads would be very helpful.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
Before you do anything with the update, use the forever root so you don't lose root. I don't have the link but its not hard to find.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
Hi. Take the OTA to 893. You will likely lose root in the process, but that's ok. Next follow the step-by-step noob guide that you'll find in the general section.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crunchycrab:
Thank you! Yes I was pretty sure I was going to want to do this at some point. But I am currently rooted. Should I really do it now?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crunchycrab:
Okay so I think I'm going to upgrade via OTA and then follow the noob guide. So easy. I surfed other forums in the past and quickly decided this was the best one so I came here first! 20 minutes later I know what to do. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
the guide I was referring to is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1455888

I wrote the guide based on my experience, and my friend's experience with our bionics. If you follow directions it's really pretty straight forward.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crunchycrab:
Looks good thanks Tuckmobile.

One problem. My phone is failing the update. The last time I updated it was not through verizon. I'm assuming this is the problem. I'm also assuming it's not going to be an easy solution.

Edit: Another problem. I froze some apps using bloat freezer. I accidentally uninstalled bloat freezer. I can't reinstall it as it is not on the app market. I have a feeling I need to unfreeze apps if i want to update. Sigh....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
Try the pathsaver tool. It should help you. The directions are not super clear so read carefully and I'm sure you can get it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
Yeah frozen apps are a problem. Let me know if pathsaver helps
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crunchycrab:
Okay I do not have charged batteries atm and I have work soon so this will have to wait for tomorrow morning. But here is what I believe I should do.

First I will attempt pathsaver that I found on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433783

Then just do the Forever root that is in the noob section. Assuming the pathsaver works for me I should be on .893 rooted correct?(with of course the option to go to .901)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ftgg99:
I believe we have fixed any outstanding issues!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] discostupid:
Still not working for me. I'm still running Calk's 2.8.1 and I've uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted profiles, uninstalled and reinstalled again (because it wouldn't let me create new profiles), created new profiles and tried it. It did a reboot the same as last time, only I got the added bonus of having to reinstall all my apps that were on the SD card.

How many other phones are having this issue? Is it a CDMA thing? I really like the idea of this app and would be willing to pay for it, but it just doesn't work on my phone :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] discostupid:
Still not working... now I'm running Calk's 2.9, same BS as before, had to reinstall all my apps that were on the SD card.

Has ANYBODY gotten this to work on the E4GT?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blakjak220:
If I'm on EK02, can I just flash a ROM that is EL26 or do I need to find radios and what not? Basically I am stock rooted (all I've done is rooted) and I have EK02. Can I just d-load and flash the TNz Blended ROM that is EL26 without doing anything else 1st.?? thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
You're gonna need CWM (ClockworkMod) installed in order to flash ROM's. Easiest way is using sfhub's script to install CWM, how to do that here.

I just took a look at the TNz Blend, and it includes a kernel along with it, so once you have CWM, all you have to do is install that as per instructions and you'll be good to go. You can basically use any radio/Modem you want.... I'm running a EL29 based ROM, Rouge Kernel (TNz comes with the Rouge Kernel), and the EK02 modem, and it works just fine.

So install CWM recovery, then you can follow this how to video to install TNz, and you should be all set.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blakjak220:
Ok, I already installed CWM when I rooted. I was just confused since it seems like EK02 can refer to the kernel, the modem and the latest update of android from Samsung... So when I flash TNz I'll end up with EL26 ROM, the Rouge kernel and still have the EK02 modem?... I'm fixing to jump in.. oh, and thanks for the link in your sig.. I rooted and installed CWM with his vids
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:
You are correct, whichever rom you choose will come with a kernel (most recent being el29). The modem is flashed separately. If you don't have any reception issues, you don't really have to change your modem

[Epic 4G General] Raiderspy1:
Im presently running deodexed EI22 with EL30 modem. Its been running fine, but Im getting the OTA EL30 update. I let it download the first time, but when it tried to install, the screen stayed on a white triangle with a exclamation point inside with a blue android standing just to the lower right of the triangle. What does that mean? I thought you could not get OTA updated if your rooted. whats up? Can I get EL30 to work this way? Luckily for me I had backup my previous setting and it just went right back, but again the update showed and choose the update later button. Whats up? Any ideas? How can I get it to work or will it ever work? Help me please. Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
There are at least 3 other threads on this. It means you cannot get the update if you are rooted and changed anything. Just pull the battery and reboot. If it goes into CWM just reboot system. You won't be bothered with update notifications anymore. Just because you are rooted doesn't mean Sprint can't push a notification to you.
[Epic 4G General] Raiderspy1:
this is getting annoying

every time I turn on background data I get a EL30 update notification. Is there any way to block this?
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
If your rooted and on a custom rom just press install now... it will fail and send you to a screen with an exclamation point... now pull battery and reboot... if it sends you to cwm then reboot from there...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmccracken:
I have confirmed that there are very significant variances in the hardware that is causing GPS problems. As I reported in a thread earlier this week, I received a new 64GB model from Amazon a few days ago that had completely dead GPS functionality. Even outside under clear skies, it never picked up even a single satellite. Thankfully, Amazon has amazing customer service and received more stock yesterday. They overnighted me a replacement unit that arrived this morning. Thankfully, since they forward ship replacements I could compare the old and new models side-by-side and decide which one was more broken (I was terrified that the replacement would have dead WiFi, backlight bleed-through, dead-pixels, or one of the other myriad hardware problem that people report. Luckily, its perfect).

The first thing I did (before running ANY firmware updates) was to install the GPS Test app. Within 30 seconds on a cold boot, it had a position fix sitting in the middle of my living room. I then proceeded to install all firmware/ICS updates up to the latest, and it is still completely functional. Granted, the signal-to-noise ratio is not awesome (its no Garmin), but it is definitely a functional GPS. In short, if you get a new TF201 be sure to test the GPS immediately so that you can return it right away and DON'T SETTLE for a broken one.

Here are screenshots from both of my units, good and bad. They were sitting side-by-side in the middle of the first floor of a two-story house. Both units are C1OKAS serial numbers and all firmware revisions are identical at the time of the tests. Bad serial number is 0056xx, good is 0171xx. Perhaps they found a manufacturing problem and fixed it in later batches.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmccracken:
Also, I put in a tech support ticket with Asus for the GPS issue the day I got the TF201 earlier this week and they never bother even replying to me. This company has a support problem (I'm preaching to the choir here...).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
It has nothing to do with the metal case, that's for sure. However, one pogo pin contact could be bad while another fully closed and functional. If it works don't flex it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmccracken:
I've flexed it and it still works 100%. I'm still in my return window, want to be sure its ok before I commit. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
Well lucky you, you've got a winner! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sjaakbanaan:
Mine is C1OKAS 026XXX which would put it after the 0171XX batch (and thus, updated GPS?), but GPS does not get any signal (at least, with Wifi turned on and without the .11 firmware update, which I can't get yet due to the serial number missing issue).

Squeezing does not do anything for GPS or Wifi reception.

Once the .11 update becomes available on the website I will try again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmccracken:
Hmm, well so much for them working out the manufacturing bugs. :( I've seen no evidence that any of the firmware updates changed the GPS performance one way or another. If its not working at all out of the box, its not going to work without hardware repair.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mile high:
Nice comparison. I started a thread to try to track down the differences between the models to see if a common link in GPS performance could be found. Sadly it was sabotaged by some of the brain dead morons on this forum bleating the Asus "aluminum case" line!

Well the evidence is building.

Took mine into the local service centre for a new screen. Nil spares here. So holding onto unit until spares arrive next week & they will repair the GPS at the same time.

Nice to see Amazon on to it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slugbug2010:
I have a handful of screen shots from January 14th when I was finally able to get gps signal inside the apartment, never very far from a window, some with wifi on, some with wifi off. I was getting locks of up to 9 satellites. But after the latest update I don't get anything. I can't lock onto to any satellites inside the apartment anymore at all, and I'm only 5 feet away from a window with wifi on. And do you have to calibrate your compass every time you move locations with your Prime? I Mine is aways wrong every time I take it anywhere.

I am totally inclined to believe it is hardware related but don't understand why mine was moderately OK and now crap.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Yeah, its sad some people are so closed minded to other possibilities even when there's evidence to pointing other ways. Plus Asus only said the aluminum case is a possibility, not the only reason. That's where I think some people are stuck on that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I have two Primes sitting in front of me, as such:

#1: Great screen. The best I've seen yet (and I've had 6), demonstrating some wide variability in screen quality (temperature, colors, text) across units. The temperature on this one is perfect (makes whites the truest), colors are deep and excellent, details pop out, and text is awesome. However, it has one stuck pixel that's only obvious on dark screens and high brightness and the speakers have a TINY bit of vibration at highest volume on some songs. Haptic feedback is the best I've had so far.

However, GPS on it is horrible. After giving it as much as 30 minutes to lock on, the best I've gotten is 5/10 satellites locked. Wifi also seems a bit weaker.

#2: Good screen. Better than the one I'm returning to HH Gregg, which had a horrible yellow cast, terrible colors, and pixellated text. This screen is better, but not as good as #1--a touch more yellow, and not as much detail in complex images. Text is okay but not as good as #1. No stuck pixels, but a little bit of light bleed that's visible on dark screens and high brightness. Audio is fine. Haptic feedback doesn't work.

However, GPS on it is excellent. In about a minute, it locks on to as many as 12/14 satellites. It also locks indoors (within a 5 feet of a glass patio door). Wifi also seems little stronger.

So, this is what is driving me nutty. There's WAY too much hardware variation among these things. I love the damn tablet as well--I can read it outside on my porch in direct SoCal sun, which is very important to me. My OG Transformer was very nice, but I couldn't read it outdoors worth a damn.

So, ASUS, what am I supposed to do, eh? Accept a bit worse screen to have better radio performance, or accept a bit worse wifi and terrible GPS to have the best screen? Or, keep trying to get a "perfect" unit?

I'm honestly tempted to just keep buying and returning units until I get one I'm happy with. Perhaps that's a way to flush defective units out of the system and communicate to ASUS that they have some problems that need fixing. I've been a solid supporter of ASUS, but after having 6 units in my hands that all have some significant issue or another, my support is starting to waver.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
My gps worked fine outside prior to the last update. I could pick up around 15 sats and get a lock. Now i get nothing. Asus can blame it on the metal all they want but i know the last update screwed it up for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I'd love to think it was just the update, but having two otherwise identical systems, 1 with working gps and 1 without, makes me doubt it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Keion:
Wait, why would a wifi only tablet even need gps? Even when on a tether, you could just use your android or (dare I say it??) iphone's gps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
I ran gps test prior to the last update. Got sats. I didnt even move the device. I then did the update. Then i ran gps test and got nothing. They killed it. Yes the back plate weakens the signal, but asus killed it in the last update. Same exact thing hppened to my dads.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
Gps is used by several apps to find location. I have no need to use the tablet as a nav device, but the idea of a component inside my $500 tablet not working really bugs me. Thats the point.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Interesting. I have two BC units with the same hardware revision that have both been fully updated. One gets a very quick lock, one doesn't get a lock unless I let it sit for quite some time, at which point it gets only half the locks of the other one and they're fleeting. At first, I thought it wasn't getting a lock at at (because I hadn't given it enough time), and really it might as well not get any.

So, it must be that some units have hardware issues that the update reveals, while some don't. It can't be the update by itself, because some units work fine with it applied.

I'd love to think that there's something in the last update that caused some systems to lose GPS, because then there'd be hope that this one with the great screen could see its GPS fixed. I'm just not sure of it, however.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ride525:
Have you tried pinching the "weaker" GPS unit, near the top center (in landscaper mod), near the cameras. There is supposed to be a GPS pogo pin there, and some may have loose connection. There are other threads talking more about the pogo pins.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NastroGlide:
So going by the op's story, the availability problem is also being caused by all the unsatisfied buyers that are getting immediate replacements for their broken units. Which I am inclined to be ok with. Hopefully, when mine ships on 2/9 (hopefully) it will be a newer problem free model.
