[T-Mobile LG G2x] zeth006:
Followed the guide here and flashed the root file.

One last question. Can I install roms and kernels from rom manager, or do i do both from cwm?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
I honestly never tried to install roms, or kernels, from rom manager, I think you need to buy the premium app to be able to do so. Either way, it's always safer to flash from cwm since you can wipe everything you need to from there (ie. cache, dalvik cache, system, and data) which is very important when flahing different roms, and kernels
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zeth006:
Okey dokes. Off to try it out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] e4e5nf3nc6:
Just to reiterate, on this particular phone it's not the best idea to flash with rom manager at all. Always go with cwm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Super One Click has been updated with a new exploit that can root the G2X Gingerbread without flashing CWM Recovery. Get the new version of Super One Click and root it that way. Or flash CWM Recovery and then flash my root zip.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zeth006:
Cool. I'll do that with the next phone I get, haha! :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hardrockinandroid:
I will get my 2nd g2x in 4 days. Looking for guide for s-off,root,super Cid I'm guessing flashing a rom is just like any other phone. Has anyone ran an ics rom on their g2x?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zeth006:
ICS for G2x is a work in progress. I believe CM team is working on it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asusgarb:
Hi everybody. I have flashed some apps on my note, but the icons still remain in the launcher (I Will post a screenshot too. The thing I would like to know from you is: is there any possibility to remove those icons from the launcher, while they are freezed?

P.S. I use SystemAppFreezer to freeze apps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
Press "menu", "edit" and then delete them. It should work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asusgarb:
I tried, but doing that the apps were uninstalled. I remember that on the alternative launchers the icons of freezed apps disappeared till the apps were defreezed. Nothing can be done like that?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordManhattan:
Is SystemAppFreezer able to backup apps? If not install Titanium or AntTek App Manager, hit "Backup App", then freeze (or delete). If you freeze you'll end up on the same spot as now, but you can safetly delete the grey icons since the apps are backed up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asusgarb:
thanks for your advice, but i've not a lot of practice in backups. i think that titanium may be better than the other one (in base of the votes on the market) but i'm afraid it would give me other problems. maybe i'll try anttek one :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpecialStar:
I use Titanium Backup and there isn't any problem coming with it.

I always freeze all my apps with this app because it's very easy and I always backup my Data with that app.

It's very simple and takes about 10 minutes ;)
[Kindle Fire General] jamonit7:
Is there a setting (or standalone app), that will turn off wifi after a set amount of time after the screen goes off? I know the stock system had much worse battery life if wifi was kept on, and I'm assuming the same with CM7?

Yes I know I can just turn it off manually, but I'd rather it just turn itself off after say five minutes of me pressing the power button or it turning the screen off itself, then restart wifi when I turn it back on.

Thanks
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
The app Wifi Keep Alive can keep it on, or turn off when screen turns off unless plugged in. But it doesn't have a timer feature.
[Kindle Fire General] airmaxx23:
You don't need an app to turn off wifi when the screen is off with CM7. Just go into menu/ settings/ wireless & network/ wifi settings/ press menu/ advanced/ and then change the wifi sleep policy to whichever setting you'd like.
[Kindle Fire General] SirVilhelm:
On the stock rom wifi will turn off when the screen turns off. I think it is actually annoying.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theholyfork:
So I sent my phone in to HTC to get repaired, got an email today saying it'd cost me either $185 to get it repaired and sent back, or $35 to get it sent back, not fixed or anything. Here's what the repair tracking said:

Repair Description

We have diagnosed your device and have determined that due to the following reason(s), your device is out of warranty:

•	Case Damage not covered by warranty

In order to properly repair your device, the following action(s) will need to be taken which will require payment due to the out of warranty diagnosis:

•	Replace Device Main Board

When I called to get my phone repaired, the guy said it was under warranty until the 28th of January (3 days ago), but since I called before that, it'll be under warranty even if it gets there after.

The amount of case "damage" was incredibly small, and I don't really need it to be replaced, and replacing the device main board sounds more of a manufacturers defect, not something I did, considering I never opened the phone up, and it would turn on (though I could be wrong).

From what I'm reading, I'm being charged because of the case damage, and if that wasn't there, I wouldn't be charged. So does anyone know if I can have them JUST replace the main board so I don't get charged?

I'd rather not pay $185 to get this repaired, and I don't want to pay $35 to have them tell me something was wrong with it, since I already knew that.

If I do decide to pay $185 to get it repaired, would replacing the main board also replace the eMMC chip?

Thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
The reason you're getting charged is not just because you have case damage, but because in their assumption, the reason why your device has motherboard damage is because you dropped the device, resulting in the motherboard getting damaged. If the device looked flawless, then that would mean it is a motherboard manufacture damage since the device had never been dropped so no other possible way for the the motherboard to get damaged.

And yes, your emmc chip will be replaced along with the motherboard.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theholyfork:
Dang. I'm assuming there's no way to convince them that I didn't drop the phone either, right?

And ugh! I don't want to lose my good eMMC chip!

Decisions, decisions :(
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coupetastic-droid:
Nope. Companies do not like fixing electronics for free. Specially if the damage got nothing to do with the actual device but the user danage.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theholyfork:
Yeah, that's what I figured :/ I guess ill have to pay $185 then. Is a bad eMMC chip a reason to get my phone replaced? Incase the new motherboard has it. ...specifically for free lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Drizzle:
So, here's my situation:

I'm running a CDMA Gnex with Apex v.1.0.1 as my rom. I flashed a new radio, [Radio Hybrid] VZW EK5 CDMA(4.0.2) / EK4 LTE(4.0.3), in the hopes I could improve the hand off between 3G and 4G... Nope! The phone will no longer, no matter what I do, connect to the 3G network :confused:

OK... I figure, no big deal. I'll just flash a different radio set. Next up were the Leaked 4.0.3 Radios. Same thing. NO 3G at all!

Now I'm getting worried. I flash the stock 4.0.2 radios... Still cannot force it to use the CDMA network. I either have 4G data service or none at all...

What am I doing wrong? I've re-booted each radio set a couple times before dumping them for a different set. I've restored the nandroid back up from before I started messing with the radios. No fix there either. I've removed the sim card and reinstalled it (knowing full well it only controls 4G). Nothing doing...

I've seen similar posts about 3G/4G connectivity issues, but mine is strange because it's just the 3G radio that doesn't work. Voice calls and 4G data work fine.

Bigxie's rom has been rock solid, and since all the radios I've used presented the same issue, I'd be hard pressed to say it was one of them. I'm a noob, so I'm thinking user error somewhere along the line. Any help would be appreciated.

Update:

This was a CDMA network issue, not an issue with the Radios or Rom!!!

I magically picked up 3G this morning while at work. Since I was still running the leaked 4.0.3 radios and the Apex Rom, I realized that this was a network problem, not a software problem. I confirmed this with Verizon just now. They brought down the node closest to my place for emergency repair last night. The CDMA radio came back up as soon as it hit a tower that let it authenticate... It was just a coincidence that it occurred right when I flashed my first radio set, and frankly I feel dumb that I didn't see network error as a possibility sooner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tannor:
Try going all the way back to stock with stock radios and see if that fixes it?

http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html

flash the bootloader before the radio, reboot after flashing the

bootloader then flash radio, reboot, then flash stock.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] billylim99:
I bought this game around 1 month ago. It was a great game i love it very much.

But now I cant find it in my tab's market anymore and when I use web android market it show that it's no longer supported for galaxy tab 10.1.

Anyone played this game and encounter this problem ? Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] himmelhauk:
It's still on the Amazon Appstore as the #1 game as of yesterday.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] rsdunlop:
Working and updating ok on my tab
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Victoria7500:
This seems to be affecting many varieties of tablet.... I'm wondering if it's to do with the new requirement for WAP access, which I assume wouldn't be available on wifi only tablets. I came upon another thread discussing the WAP issue, where the game developers had replied and said that those permissions were getting removed again, and I've mentioned the tablet compatibility problem there. The thread is:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22039480&posted=1#post22039480
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] billylim99:
I am using wifi+3G version P7500 tab. so i guess is not the problem. does it have anything to do with updating market in my tab??

is there anyway to fake market into other device ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Victoria7500:
I don't think you can fake it unless your device is rooted. I also don't think your market update is the problem, since you see the same error going via the website.

A developer replied to my post on the other thread and said WAP permissions required actual telephony hardware, and that this was causing the problems with some tablets, so it may not matter so much about 3G versus wifi, perhaps it's more to do with whether your device identifies itself to the market as phone or tablet.

For that reason, and also because of the timing of when you first had issues, I would still suspect the latest app update is causing your problem, rather than anything you've changed on the tablet. I'd wait and see if the next update fixes it before you try anything too drastic.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Victoria7500:
In case you aren't following the other thread... The new update has been released and I can confirm it works fine on my Acer Iconia, so if WAP permissions were causing your problem, hopefully yours should work now too. Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] billylim99:
yup.. it is working now.. i even bought the cranky story.. but it is kinda weird the free version still show not supported ...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Victoria7500:
Yeah, the free version still has WAP in its permissions, don't know whether it's intentional or another mistake.

Suppose most people with Android tablets have Android phones too, so will end up like myself...trying the free one on the phone and then getting the full one for their tablet.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LOCKDOC_UA:
Hi xda community!

I've faced with a big problem. I'be been using Neutrino 1.4S rom. Then I desided to try Neutrino 2.1. I flashed it via CWM (5.0.2.7) and just after that flashed an Atrix-CM7-Kernel-024b4-ext4-1.30GHz.zip & rebooted.

And there was no red motorola logo (Dual Core technology) anymore but list with the options like:

- RSD

- Fastboot

...

- Android recovery

etc.

Something like this screenshot but w\out message "Failed to boot"

I have no actual photo of that screen as I had no camera with me ((

After 5 sec no pressing any key Neutrino started booting but stuked on boot animation. Screen was on & off periodicaly. But it didn't boot.

I tried to flash Neutrino 2.1 via CWM once again. But this time w\out flashing of faux 024b4 kernel. Result - the same.

Then Neutrino 1.4 S. Result - same.

Finally I flashed a stock AT&T rom (4.5.91) via RSD Lite. It booted successfully but...!! But no soft key responce! The key area is seems like a part of the screen. Like down part of screen been shifted down to key's area.

And I'm stucked on Blur registration as I can't open the keyboard to skip registration and can't pass it as I dont have a wifi spot around me.

Any saggustions?

P.S> Sorry for my English is so far from perfect. But I hope you've understood everything.. Last hope on you!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LOCKDOC_UA:

i had to open the bootloader by flashing this sbf since my usb debugging was disabled.

There's a patch for the Xoom for ad hoc. The Sprint hotspot app is infrastructure. I think everything else is ad hoc.
[Verizon Droid Charge] adrenaline_rush:
So after disabling Google Services under location settings, I noticed my battery lasting much longer. It felt like it wasn't burning through battery as fast when using the phone and especially when the phone was just on standby. The phone feels more efficient and I got almost 32 hours of battery life. This was not all standby, I would call it moderate use with a lot of texting, tinkering, even Wifi tethering for half an hour.

Try it and let us know. Screenshot as evidence.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Trying today.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
As a quick background for those who don't know, disabling that option means that the device will no longer use wifi hotspots as a location mechanism. It shouldn't affect outdoor location accuracy under normal circumstances. It may affect time-to-fix or accuracy in areas with a high density of tall buildings and skyscrapers. Most won't notice a difference in location performance, but it's important to be aware of what the changes are doing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hdb_3:
I tried it but lost my Google contacts and when I defrosted it I had to re-sign into Google.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Defrosted? Did you freeze it? You just have to go under settings and disable it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
In that case, this won't do anything for me since my wifi is usually off.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BattsNotIncld:
Yeah... From personal experience, I wouldn't recommend freezing any system apps via Titanium. Basically anything that's in red font. It never turns out good lol.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I think the main reason this drains battery while wifi is off is that it constantly reports your location. Turn it off and back on and read the message.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Just want to let you guys know that I have 2 Charges, one belonged to my daughter and it last for days without any mod(stock) and she installed a lot of apps on it. Mine is the unlucky one, if I used it straight without taking any breaks in between(navigating through contatcts for editing/updating/delete and a 15min phone call), a full charge battery lasted 3hrs and 20min. I have tried every combinations of Mods(V6,smoothness,Thunderbold etc.), ROMs (tweakstock,eclipes,stock-deodex) and kernel(imomosey4.0, Imnuts PBJT 1115,013012) and NO help. I think this has a "silicon" issue. So I give this google service a try to see if it's help. I disabled google service through settings and left the phone over night.(from 2am-7am), I checked at 7am and battery showed 97%(3% drops for 5hrs). I then used the phone constantly and it drained to zero in about 3hrs20min. So in sleep mode, it's not bad, but not help in working mode, for my phone that is. I'm going to swap out this phone for another one with Verizon.
[Verizon Droid Charge] adrenaline_rush:
That's just a waste of battery :mad: Also it probably keeps some service running killing the battery as well

Just uncheck the ticker for this experiment guys, also it takes a battery cycle to notice the change
[Verizon Droid Charge] tsgeek:
Battery cycle

For a full battery cycle, should we let the battery drain completely, and then get to full charge? Or can we just let it get down to 10-15%, and then charge it?

Thanks for the idea. Timing is great, since my Charge is suddenly running through the battery in 4-6 hours, where it used to go 8-10 or more.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
So i turned this off and i couldn't get a location at all. Turned it back on and location came back. I had full service.

Sent from my pocket-sized, Linux-based computer using electromagnetic radiation... and Tapatalk.
[Verizon Droid Charge] adrenaline_rush:
No need to wait to try this. I was just saying that you might not notice the difference at first. Myself, I noticed towards the end of the day that my battery percentage was significantly higher than it would have been normally.

Yes, the general cell tower based location will not work. However the real GPS lock will work, it just takes a long time on this phone.

Try the app Speedview. I turn that on, it locks in in about 5-10 seconds. I have it running in the background (run in background setting) then open Maps. Get instant location because the GPS already has a lock
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
So wtf does verizon location services do then? And doesnt having gps run in the background kill your battery?
[Verizon Droid Charge] adrenaline_rush:
I think is Verizon's version of Google Services. It must be on if you try to use VZ navigator that I know. Also when I tried unchecking it, it took a bit longer to get a lock.

Not really. I've never noticed any difference with it on or with it off (I'm referring to standalone GPS NOT Google services!)
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
It is how assisted GPS works, it use towers to help determine location.

[Verizon Droid Charge] The El Guapo:
I am yet to have ever clicked on that VZW location services box...it does nothing but inform VZN of your whereabouts :cool:

I unplug my phone about 8AM every day and do not charge until 7PM...moderate use, web browsing and some texting...also using 2.3.6 rooted stock :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
Seriously? You don't think verizon knows where your phone is? Just having it on makes it possible for them to track it.

Also I have unchecked them with no change. Those being checked won't effect your battery unless you have some app that is accessing your location in the background. In which case it would be helpful to have them checked, as it would find a location quicker.

~Sent from my Droid SuperCharge~
[Verizon Droid Charge] The El Guapo:
I'm not "that" naive mate...I know they know my whereabouts anyway. I was just stating the point that I have never messed with that check box.

Also.....battery usage will always vary depending on a million variables...list too long to write it down.

It has been the most discussed topic on this site beside the usual "I HAZ BRICK NAO...JELP ME PLIS, I ROOTED AND NO POWAH!"

- Warrenty? (yes? -> to the store)

- Wich ROM (can be related, known problems)

- Kernel etc. (can be related, known problems)

- Age of battery AND phone.

Please provide more information. But it is also possible that your battery life is poor and that your battery needs to be replaced.

But first, more information please.
