[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snaai8:
So my galaxy tab 10.1v has a bit of water damage which caused the power button to get defective.

When I send it in they said after only a day that is was water damage.

My question is.. Are there any water indicators in the galaxy tab 10.1v that I can bleach with q-tip bleach so that they become white again?

Or is there another way I can fake samsung to send me a refurbished tablet?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane86:
So, let me get this straight...

you damaged your tab by exposing it to water.

Then you sent it in to Samsung, they called you on it and are returning it.

now you want to know if there is a way to cheat the company to fix something you broke without you paying for it?

do you really think Samsung would suddenly forget that it was returned as water exposure?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snaai8:
Well there was a whole story behind it..

Lets just say that I tried to apply a screenprotector and a bit of the application fluid came into the device by a production fault of Samsung.

They said they would replace it as the tab also had the bleeding issue and moisture issue.

When I got back from my vacation I got a package containing my old galaxy tab.

They told me they weren't going to replace it as it was all my fault, even though they stated in a letter they sent me before that they would replace it no matter what.

So after I contacted the company I was sent to a service center (again) and then back to the main office. back and forth, back and forth..

Until I decided to give up. The company has already once stated that the product would be replaced because of production error then on a second opinion they canceled their promise. So when I got the registration files it was all messed up and you couldn't even tell if the tab was faulty or not from the forms.

So thats why I though why not try and fool them for a bit?

The tab starts but the power button died. So if I can bleach the indicator for the main board they will not look any further than that.

Hy all,

inspired by this thread I spend some spare time in compiling OMFGB sources for use with the hero gsm.

Because of the fact, that I did not manage to successfully compile the OMFGB sources directly for the hero gsm (compiling was OK but could not get rom to boot) I did it the other way.

I compiled the sources for the hero cdma (heroc) and afterwards ported it to hero gsm.

I integrated Erasmux fly-kernel 13 since I used it with all other hero roms before.

After testing the rom for ~1 week (also my son is quite satisfied with it) I decided to share it.

I took out some apps that were not usable (for example God Mode) and put in minimal gapps so that it's possible to sign in on google account and run market.

Also I replaced the LatinIME.apk with the CMs one to get other keyboard layouts than querty.

I'd recommend to install morelocale2 to be able to dial 123456 instead of 123-456.

What I have to say is that I'm by far no developer (at least not on android platform;)).

Thanks and credits go to

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom0769:
God mode seems not to be compatible with hero, all menu entries were grayed out, so I decided to delete it from package.

Maybe someone has a clue how to get it run:confused:

Just checked the zip,replace the heroc files in use/keylayout,keychars wit similar files from a hero rom,basically key functionality
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom0769:
I ported and tested the rom step by step.

Since all keys work as they should, I skipped this step.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] aca89:
I gave it a go. Not bad, for some reason I had extremely good wifi reception using this ROM, so that's good. Really missed some kind of advanced settings 'cause I use a lot of options from there and that was a dealbreaker :(. Also a2ext didn't work, so I had to flash darktremor script which caused i few random reboots. All in all, a solid ROM which could be much improved.

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tom0769:
For the advanced settings, I could not get the God_Mode fully working so far.

For a2ext, I don't use it since I don't need it.

My son, which has a hero too, uses a lot of games.

For him I did custom mtd layout, much faster than a2ext cause it's kept all internal.

I thought it was a fluke at first and now this second one really makes me want to know if I missed something somewhere. Is anyone else seeing this?

this is ATT N1 and the texts were from ATT phones not using google voice

Hello everybody.

I have some problems with my Marvel. First something to my Phone.

Android: 2.3.5

Sense: 2.1

Software: 2.14.111.1

hboot: 1.08.0099

Radio: 7.53.39.03M

So i would like too flash the Rom.

But nothing works

With hboot it is doing something but is the 2.14 version already.

With Goldcard...nothing :-(

What i'm doing wrong ?

Please help
[HTC Wildfire S] Fortune144:
Now i tried again with RUU but i got Error [155]
[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
First, try installing a custom recovery boot menu. Clockworkmod (CWM) seems to be a popular choice:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL62BUZjmgw

That clip will show you how.

Once your bootloader is modded, you'll be able to place your ROM (*.zip) file directly on the root of your SD card, boot into your new recovery loader (CWM), and then follow the prompts until you get to install a zip file from the SD Card.

There are detailed steps for this available on the Interweb, but the above should provide a good starting ground for you.

---------- Post added at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------

...oh, and all of that assumes that you've already unlocked your phone!

If you haven't (*slap*) then Google "htcdev" and take it from there.

Bonne chance,

[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
Don't use that method. Use CWM as I described earlier.

Also, confirm that your phone is unlocked and rooted.

I suspect your phone has S-ON, like me, so HTCDev + CWM would be your best bet.

Search for tips with those keywords. There's plenty of helpful guides on this forum alone.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mickwa76:
Hi, I'm a noob. Flashed Rowmo yesterday and it kept freezing my system. Had to go back to crappy stock. Please help. Rowmo 5.1. Input much appreciated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funky_nl:
Mickwa76 you need to give more information about your phone and how you did it.

I found this on the mobilegeek site:

Please note:

The ROMOW v5 is based XKL7 then I recommend you do a full wipe. If you are using a ROM-based or KJ4 KKA backups with Titanium may not be successful or lead to problems of instability '

Installation:

For safety, let the memory of your device running a ROM

Download the ROM and put it in the memory of your device

Boot into Recovery

Do all wipe

Flashate the V5.1

Reboot and you're done

PS: The first startup may take a few minutes, so do not worry. If the boot image continues to move forward but without going into loop, remove the battery and reboot the device

And you can always try other roms :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
Here is step by step procedure,

1. Flash Rootable Stock ROM

2. Root and install CWM

3. Copy ROMOW 5.1 to SD card (Preferably Ext SD Card)

4. Reboot into recovery mode

5. Flash ROMOW 5.1 ROM

6. Do a clean Wipe/factory Reset

7. Wipe Cache

8. Reboot

done.

Remember first boot will take little longer time than normal.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpecialStar:
Install another ROM, safe all your data with titanium backup for example.

Then go to CWM Recovery and flash your new CustomROM.

First Startup could take some minutes, so dont push anything, wait.

After starting, reboot it 2-3 times ;)

Then if you want, flash a new kernel with CWM Recovery and reboot it 2-3 times again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mickwa76:
N7000 KKA. Backed up stock on external. Saved .zip on internal sd. Backed up apps/data. Did a factory wipe and reset using CWM. Finally flashed the RowMo rom. Took a while to start, no boot loop. Worked fine for the first 10 minutes then my Note got excessively hot and started freezing. Rebooted a few times no change. Flashed stock back. Want to try rocket but a few people on xda have complained of freezes also.

But i've classes this days :D

[Android Apps and Games] wso277:
Looks good, but i'll make two suggestions:

1- A widget. It's really handy to have one on the homescreen so i can view the class room easily.

2- we can choose the intervarls of the classes. for ex: 8:00 - 8:30 8:30 - 9:00....

also if you could implement a function to import holidays from google calendar would be really good.

I'm going to download and test it. Keep up the good work

[Android Apps and Games] theonebakery:
Very good idea, but may I suggest allowing people to add sub-items or events under each class to list homework. If this was implemented I would absolutely use this. Keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] Ravrahn:
It's locked in portrait mode for two reasons: It's not as useful in landscape, and people were getting weird crashes (the timetable disappeared and didn't come back until you force quit, which I've found still happens if you leave the app alone on the settings screen - it's some strange bug in the cursor object, I think). I might get on to making a landscape mode when I start working on the tablet optimisation, but that may not be for a while.

The weekend classes will probably need to wait too, I just don't think there's enough room on the screen to fit 7, or even 6, tabs. I'll implement the two days once I figure out how to use tabs as fragments, because then there won't be width constraints.

I'll start work on a widget first, depending on how difficult it is, expect the widget by this time next week, perhaps. I was planning on making it a premium feature, but since everyone seems to want it, I'll probably make it free, and find something else to be premium.
[Android Apps and Games] Bos1man:
Hi thanks for the app i think its a brilliant idea and i love it so far!!

Just a request my school works on a 6 day cycle but we only have school from mon to fri so for example if mon is day 1 then the next mon would be day 6 and tues day 1 if that makes sense. I was wondering if there would be some way for me to use the app with this 6 day cycle?

Found a bug:

When setting up you add activities. After this you build the time table.

If you put now a activity into the time table, then go back and rename it and press next again, the app force closes.

Just a little hint. ;)

Anyway: awesome app. :)

Sent from my loved HTC Desire HD@CM7. <3
[Android Apps and Games] Ravrahn:
So it does! I'll look into it. Thanks for pointing me to the bug, but in future, could you email it using the "Report Bug" option in the app's settings?

Regarding the 6-day cycle, Bos1man, I don't know how I might implement that. I'll try my best to add that while I'm adding weekends and whatnot.

v0.8 will feature a widget or two, a slightly better UI in the timetable itself (with the current period highlighted), and a few bug fixes (the one Ditti4 found, hopefully, and also one I just found in the edit screen which ought to be easily fixed). It should be out by this time next week, we'll see.

EDIT: I've had a thought - I'm going to implement a backup/restore function with plain text files on the SD card. I'll pop some templates in the OP when that happens.

As for the bug with going back and changing an activity, I can only really say "don't do it" for the moment... I can't think of a good way to work around the bug short of deleting the items that you've changed the activity of. If that's a reasonable solution, fine, I'll do that, but I'm not sure it is...
[Android Apps and Games] Bos1man:
Thanks appreciate u looking in to it

Sent from my Galaxy S running ICS
[Android Apps and Games] Ditti4:
It think it should be ok.

And as solution for the 6-day-thing:

Maybe you can add the possibility to add as much weeks as we want. This would be enough for the start, I think. ;)

And I will use the bug report option in the app in the future - but I didn't know that it is existing. :D

Sent from my loved HTC Desire HD@CM7. <3
[Android Apps and Games] Ravrahn:
If I understood Bos1man correctly, making it as many weeks as you want would require him to enter the same six days' worth of information 5 times in a row, which would be a horrendous bore. I'm sure there's something I could do to make this unnecessary. I'll need to think about it.

I'll be pushing 0.7.2 to the market by the end of the day (Australia). It will have a working backup, but no working restore. 0.7.1 is uploading currently, and features:

- Changed Donate button to PayPal donation link

- Fixed bug in edit screen with list flowing into buttons

I used it once so far and it worked great.

At the same store the next day it didnt work, tried it again this morning and it didnt work.. First time it worked on rev41 second and third on same rev failed, updated to r48 the most current now and Ill try again..

Has anyone else seen this when trying..

SOLVED

Make sure you have the newest market version, do the phone browser method of backing out and selecting market/install (method found on droid life and other places, search if you cant find it) OR find the apk somewhere.

Reboot after install, log in and it should ask you to set up wallet again.. if it does not, CLEAR WALLET DATA from under apps and re set it up again. Youre stuff transfers dont worry.

Mine didnt work with the r41 version but now works again with r48. It didnt take more than a split second to approve it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krichek:
I've seen this a couple of times, and mentioned it in a few posts. It can happen if the reader is not connected properly or is having some other issue (was there a green light on the pad?) or more commonly...

Next time it happens open the app and select the Google prepaid card, Look at the picture below. If where your userid is you see "cannot contact bank" it will not work. The wallet requires that you have an active network connection to process a transaction. This is the one downside I see as I have been in a couple places where they have the pad but the signal is poor at best.
