Hey,

I got to college early one day and had to take a stop at the rest room, so I put my back pack down and there was this little soap tray on the sink and I put my phone on that. I am taking care of business and I hear my phone drop. I thought nothing of it I was like Il get it out of the sink later. But then I realized it the sink had an auto sensor! I honestly how no idea how on earth it didnt go off when my phone fell in, and I had no idea how the heck I was going to get it out. so I just did a ninja grab and pulled it out and luckily it didnt go off but gosh it scared the crap out of me lol

[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
In the process of trying to help someone fix their device, looking for an ENG build I decided to download and install the Pre-Release ROM for the EVO. The thing had an HBOOT version of 0.68 (which I'd never even heard of before), and it was an nb0 file, not an img file. Me, of course, being completely fearless and looking forward to a challenge decided to try and flash the thing, and guess what? it flashed successfully. I figured that if it wasn't compatible, it would error out, so I was feeling pretty comfortable, until I tried rebooting my bootloader. The device turned on, but nothing. Just a backlit, blank screen. My splash screen was gone. My bootloader was gone. Though, the phone does boot up, and I hear a startup animation sound, and several notification-type sounds. However, the device is no longer recognized by a computer, and thus I can't access adb or fastboot.

So, I'm stuck with a bricked device, waiting & hoping that a refurb becomes available soon. In the meantime, my only device is my old AT&T Tilt 2, which, of course, has no service. I've been specding the last day try to find a way to make phone calls from it using Google Voice, and I've come pretty close actually.

You never realize how much you appreciate your device until you kill it. I just hope no one's been trying to call me . . . :eek:.

Wiped data instead of cache or dalvik a few times, and one time my wife distracted me while I was in recovery, I wiped the SD card in stead of battery stats.
[EVO 4G General] viper51499:
Accidentally dumped a bottle of water inside my bag with EVO inside. Rice and jerky dehydrator later...I had to bake it in the oven to get it to come back on. The edges of the screen still look like snowflakes, but it works!
[EVO 4G General] vel7wil:
I'd only be rooted about 2 weeks when I was playing around and wipping before trying a new rom and accidentlly wiped everything off the phone...alllll my data...had to drive home since I was at work and connect to PC to reinstall everything back...took almost 3 hours for everything to reinstall....for about 20 mins I took it completely bricked....
[EVO 4G General] Brilliancy:
My stupidest mistake was waiting four months to root my phone. I treat my phone like a child, so I've never done anything horrendous to it. I've never even dropped it :P

Let my wife take it while going out to the bars. Lost for 2 days, unable to get any service on roam(or with any prl hack) and will not last more than 5hrs on a charge after many diff. Roms and a new batt.
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
i haven't dropped mine or ever done anything to stupid with it except for show of my ballistic hc case by whipping my phone at a wall to prove it still works. but the worst thing that happened to me was that i used twrp touch recovery. i was the very first person to get a nice fresh brick from it haha. then others decided to keep using it after i said it bricked my evo and they received bricks. should have heeded my warning lol :D
[EVO 4G General] xfullmetal17:
First Evo: partitioned the SD card without backing up the data on it, then used TWRP 2.0 and ended up softbricking.

[EVO 4G General] anilLiAnCe:
I used to work night shift and at a certain point u start becoming sleep deprived. That's when the incident occurred.

It was around 1am when I got a call from a friend who was in the area on the way home and wanted to know if I was hungry cuz he was at Carl's. I was already in route to the bathroom due to all the coffee I drank, but I picked up anyway and proceeded to my task. I did the whole head/shoulder holding phone method and SLIP! The dive was so well executed, the phone fell in and inside the toilet drain. I figured the phone is already wet so I finsihed. Got the phone out cleaned it up etc etc but obviously it was out of commission. Come to find out, my friend called and left a voicemail saying he got pulled over and is getting arrested and the cop won't impound the car if I picked it up for him but I never got it. An hour later after they had impounded the car and he was probably in jail already, I'm at work like f*uck him and his stupid god damn famous stars!! When I get my new phone I'm deleting his ass. Fellas, if you insist on answering the phone while your about to urinate, take it from me, just turn around and sit first. If I had done that, i would have gotten my burger.

[HTC Sensation] xwsmx:
So, I flashed my Sensation XE to the ARHD ROM, in which I totally did not do any backup. I lost my contacts and all, but I have backup on another phone.

I remember that when I first load up Sensation XE with stock ROM (S-ON, no rooting and all), at the setup configuration, there's this option to transfer contacts from an old phone via bluetooth. I believe the ARHD did not do the same when it first load up. I've looked around the settings, contacts, people and just couldn't find it. I would really appreciate your help guys.

and, I did use the search function, and even the results after typing out the title, yet couldn't find my answer. Please help. Thank you!

Hi, anyone here have issues with lockscreen being disabled after flashing an ICS rom? I have flashed multiple times with all the available ICS roms. Rom loads up but I have no lockscreen. Pressing the power button goes directly into the OS and bypasses the lockscreen. Played around with settings but no luck. Otherwise the roms seem to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I have gone into the settings and chose multiple lockscreen settings but still no lockscreen. Also wiped and reflashed multiple times. Currently, using lockscreen widget from market...but would still rather use the original lockscreen. BTW i came from RRv22 and have followed the installation instructions very strictly from all the different roms. Weird, never had this problem before.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BlazinHitman:
Ok so ive searched countless threads trying to solve my problem but i cant seem to find any solutions. Im trying to wifi tether my g2x to my ps3 (not using windows) however i know that the ps3 cant pick up ad-hoc networks. Ive read that the wifi tether needs to be in an infrastructure mode or something like this. Ive tried using the wifi tether app v3.1 beta 11 and it works to wifi tether to my laptop and ipod touch but not to my ps3. Was anyone else able to accomplish what i am trying to do?

Additional Info:

Rom: CM9 ics beta

Kernel: faux123's ics beta kernel 0.49

thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BlazinHitman:
So I'm guessing no one with a g2x has tried this???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Did you try the built-in wifi tether?

It will work for cm7. Don't know about cm9.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BlazinHitman:
theres a built in wifi tether in cm9?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Yes, if you can't find it then you aren't looking hard enough. I'm actually USB tethered right now and that's in the same place (as usual) as WiFi tethering.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
I've got a question, does T-Mo charge for me using the phone's build in tethering ability? I know that 3rd party apps have found ways around it if they do because I've been using a 3rd party app for tethering and have gotten no complaints from T-Mo, using the built in one would be much nicer though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
As far as I know, regardless of plan, no, they don't. I'm currently on a contracted 2GB/month plan and I don't get charged, that's one of the ways they get away with the song and dance of "unlimited" data.

Edit: for the sake of explanation, I don't know about Pay as You Go plans, so hence the "as far as I know"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Sweet I'm on the same plan.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Tethering uses your regular data. No they won't/can't charge extra for you to use the data you paid for.

The tethering counts towards your "limit" so be cautious.

I really do wish some people would look around and try things on their phone before asking questions.

Even a simple "cm7 wifi tether" in Google would come up with results...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I played 3 CALL Of duty's maps like this!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
What that gave me was the Wifi Tether app I was using, I was afraid that even from using the phones wifi tether that T-Mo would detect it and charge me as other companies charge for tethering.

I would assume hotspot is the same?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Weird.. well cm7 comes with it's own wifi tethering. It's in wireless settings. Give it a try, should work. Never tried on cm9 and not running it either.

T-Mobile doesn't do that. They might ask you to pay for it but it doesn't apply because cm7 has it built in. I think T-Mobile has an app you download for wifi tethering?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
I figured it out, it comes on the phone stock and if you use it with the stock ROM t-mo has it set up to use their tethering APN which they make you pay for, CM roms and other Wifi Tethering apps use your default Data apn, thus T-mo only.detects it as data usage.

It's what I used to do when I had an iPhone w/ AT&T, just changed the tethering APN to the data APN and BAM undetectable.

Sent from the second fastest G2x in the universe... for now *you're doing it wrong*
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ctowne:
How did you change the tether apn settings?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] feverlovesbeavers:
Try foxfi, barnacle def won't work
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ctowne:
When I use foxfi it brings up the same exact symbol in the notification bar as when I turn on the wifi hotspot in the phone settings. Doesn't that mean t-mobile can see that you are tethering? I just want to do it so they won't make me buy a tether plan.

Hi guys, I'm on ddjp6 already rooted...

In this rom when I reinstall the rom through Odin, my data doesn't lost...

And I've removed bloatwares from system and installed important apps on rom...

Questions are...

1. When I do factory reset, all the apps I've pushed on rom get deleted...

How to prevent it?

Should I create a rom (Odin tar) or take system img?

2.

I want to know why no data loss on reinstalling this rom?

If I create system img. Or. Tar file, will I get the same feature?

Or, how can I get the same feature?

(no data loss)

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twinky444:
1. Not sure..

Maybe its because you didnt pushed apps to /system/app

try pushing again as system app using root explorer to "/system/app" propperly.

2. That happened to me when i flashed XXJPN, then flashed XXJPQ over it. No data deleted. i think its similar to official update. when you have eg. android 2.1, on android 2.2 data doesnt get deleted. Maybe its the same - maybe odin flashes this rom only as /system so /data partition stay not affected. After flash you have to do factory reset for sure.

I've done it for so many times already...

So, if I make a new Odin tar using rom cooker, can I get the same feature?

Besides the Crack Issue on Xperia Arc, Lets Discuss Scratches on our Xperia Arc

My Arc is Misty Silver, I've been using it for 8 months, I don't use Casing(Leather Case/TPU Gel Case etc), just straight to my pocket, No Keys, Coins etc

My Arc don't have cracks or chrome peeling, some minor scratches on the screen though(shatter proof sheet still intact)

I have tried using ZAGG Ishield Maximum Coverage for Xperia Arc, but it didn't last long, It collects dirt easily on the sides, transparency becoming less, and some parts are peeling, also it can't protect it from the scratches I got, so I have decided to remove it after 2 months of use.

I have a friend whose using a soft pouch included in the box, but his arc also suffers the same scratches on my Arc

Here are some screen shots​

And there is a hole on my Shatter proof sheet, I don't know where I got it.
[Xperia Arc General] tyrand3:
my 4 months old misty silver arc had many scratches on the chrome(bezel and button) but no peeling.

And my 8 months backcover had many scratches too but i cant see it if

you not look really close/u need brightness to see it.

I bought my arc in april and they replacing it in october .

i always use capdase softjacket and sometimes SE pouch
[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
My midnight blue one has the same on the battery door opening cutout and the back cover is scratched all over with fine scratches - only visible in direkt sunlight and the same is on the painted front parts. Screen and chrome parts are fine.

Using it naked and putting it in my pocket jeans without keys or anything else.

Really cheap stuff if it scratches from that.

It's 8 months and 4 days old :D
[Xperia Arc General] adsada arc:
My midnight blue arc has some scratches on the screen and back cover, I kinda gave up using a screen protector, I might remove the shatterproof sheet if it gets really bad. A crack has unfortunately recently appeared above the light sensor, but other then that everything else is fine no peeling of the chrome, though the battery cover at the end when you pick it off has paint chipped off, no biggie though cos its just the back cover, if it gets worse I'll just buy a new one.

Since I got the phone in June I've used a neoprene case, which does the job well. I'd recommend this over getting gimmicky (and horrible) plastic covers which make the phone feel big and look ugly
[Xperia Arc General] rec71:
You can get new battery covers on eBay for £5. I'm going to buy a couple as spares as my cover is getting a bit scratched.

[Xperia Arc General] mhyke13ph:
They say the Scratch Resistant Mineral Glass got some Oleophobic coating, better sensitivity, and the screen will be brighter if you removed factory applied protector
[Xperia Arc General] estuardo4:
The screen feels a lot better. Really easy to use. Smooth. But definitely is not easy to clean. It's a fingerprints magnet. About scratches, I've been using it naked for just a week on my pants pocket. I seriously doubt it will get a scratch. It is not a gorilla display, but the glass seems sturdy enough.
[Xperia Arc General] rafuru:
My Arc have scratches on the buttons and display protector, but it's ok :)
