[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RTBFalcon:
To avoid misunderstandings with this I'll post a couple things up front.

I am an existing Boost customer.

I have an old Boost 3g phone that I am transferring from ID data from to enable me to use my Evo View on Boost.

The old Boost phone is going to meet a sad end under a hammer.

So, no fraud, etc.

Table is running rooted stock HC

My question: I've done almost everything needed to transition the View to Boost, however, I'm stuck up on zeroing out the existing sprint esn and hex. I've tried a variety of ways to zero out those two number so they can be replaced with the Boost identifiers but nothing has worked so far. I'm kind of stuck. How have people succeeded in replacing the unique ID numbers on the tablet?

If anyone wants the instructions for flashing to Boost, PM and I'll send you everything that I've gathered up.

Thanks.

Cloning is illegal, whether you own the device or not. You cannot substitute the MEID of one phone to another legally for any reason.

I doubt you will find any help in here.

umm think I read some where people said Cdma workshop does something like that

Hey all! First post, long time xda fan.

I recently got my Samsung Note, and decided to try the apple Bluetooth wireless keyboard that i already had.

I Can get it paired just find, but I cannot get it to actually connect.

I tried it with other devices to confirm that the keyboard works, and it does.

I tried various apps and tutorials for other android devices, including the similar Galaxy Tab, and have had no luck.

When i tell the Note to connect, it says connecting, flashes a sentence of text to quick to read, and then goes back to "Paired".

Any help with this issue would be great, thanks.

It's the kernel issue...Some kernel works, some don't =)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fntms:
Works fine here with Franco Kernel #7 (and 6) and also CF Root. (LB1, LA4 too).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Gilead8:
wow! Thanks for this. Now I know how will I pair my Apple BT keyboard. I also read somewhere that the kingdroid rom can also pair easily with Apple BT KB. But I want to retain my Rocket Rom so I'm looking for other option. Again, Thanks for this :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tabuburn:
Just flash another kernel that is compatible with the keyboard. You don't have to flash another ROM to do so.

Strange, mine has it...
[EVO Shift 4G General] CodeMonk:
I noticed tonight that my touchscreen stops working when I slide the keyboard all the way out. It looks like when you slide it, when it gets about 1/2 way, the lights under the touch keys (home, search, etc) turn off, then 3/4 of the way out, they come back on, but you can't touch anything on the screen. No scrolling, no selecting, nothing. When you start to close it, the lights turn off 3/4 of the way open, then 1/2 the way open they turn on and the touch screen starts working again.

I've been watching videos on how to replace the digitizer and they look easy enough for me to do, but is it really the digitizer if it is working when the phone is closed? This sounds more like a loose cable, eight? Anyone else have this happen?
[EVO Shift 4G General] turkbot:
That does sound more like the flex cable

Michigan rockin the forums again :O

one by one the penguins steal my sanity
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Sounds like it's most likely the Flex Cable. Which is easy enough to change. They usually don't just come loose. Has been know to happen, but it's rare. You can repair it yourself, you just have to have the proper tools. If you do attempt it, be sure to take your time. You can pick the Flex Cable / Tool Kit up on Ebay, or Amazon fairly cheaply.
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
I personally wouldnt touch it... I had a bad flex cable and brought it to sprint and they bricked my phone while changing it... If sprint can brick that easily changing a flex cable, imagine your odds...
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
That's very true. There is a chance you can damage, or even "Brick" the device if you don't know what your doing. I've changed about about five already. The first one took forever, I was so nervous. But after about the third one it was all good :) . Same with the digitizers, first one is like Ahhh :eek: . After about the 10th one it's not that scary. No I do not damage my phone that often. Just know a lot of people who do. That also do not have TEP Insurance.

[EVO Shift 4G General] CodeMonk:
Ok, in the immortal words of Eminem, "I'm not afraid." Or wasn't, at least. I took it apart tonight and yep, the flex cable is broken. Taking it apart made it worse and I've lost my earpiece. The good news is the touch screen works while the keyboard is slid out... But it doesn't with it in. lol

I did find some on ebay, but does anyone know of a place that sells the sliding mechanism? Mine is pretty sloppy and I'd like to fix that while I have it open to replace the cable.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Your best bet is going to be a damaged Shift. I don't know of any place that sells just the parts. But I would still hunt around on the net. Maybe check Amazon, or Craigslist.

[EVO Shift 4G General] HTCotta:
I mean nobody disrespect I am just as intrigued by taking things apart and just as satisfied with self repair as the next tech guy, but you don't even need to have TEP to get a shift with a broken flex cable replaced. This is a warranty issue. By no fault of yours, the phone is broken. Sprint replaces these without push back, I'm on my 3rd shift. Now that you've opened it though, you may be out of luck.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
You can always tell them you took it to a third party store to get looked at.
[EVO Shift 4G General] CodeMonk:
It was out of warranty. I already tried the warranty route.

Anyway, got the cable today, put it in and the jawbone connector for the LCD is jacked up. It won't go all the way in no matter what you do. So I put the old one back in and now the touch screen is completely gone.

My wife called sprint while I was messing with it cause she wanted to see if there were any repair stores that had parts and they offered me an early upgrade. $105 bucks and I get up to a $150 discount as long as I re-up for 2 years. Since I'm pretty happy with Sprint, this is probably a win-win situation for me to do it, so I did.

Now I just have to decide... Moto Photo, Nexus 4g, or Samsung Galaxy 2. Any opinions?

*edit: I use CM7 on my shift and would like to continue to use CM7, I don't NEED CM9, but the option would be nice.
[EVO Shift 4G General] obe1kobe:

Wait for the Galaxy Nexus, that's what I'm doing. The development is too awesome on nexus devices for me to stay away any longer. Even if the specs are already somewhat outdated, I just want one :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
You will miss your Shift :rolleyes: . Once the Shift has you, it will never let you go :p .

[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
BOOOO! Try the marketplace on xda instead of advertising it here ;) btw what's you next device? I'm trying to see if I should even bother staying with sprint now that LTE is on hold it seems like I might never get 4G speeds in my town.
[EVO Shift 4G General] tbag1122:
Ok, didn't want to clutter things up and start a new thread so I'm gonna hijack this one. Hope thats ok.

I've been having troubles with my touch sceen the last few weeks and its very sporadic. So first issue it just simply stops responding all together. Like for instance i go to pull notification bar down and it stops part way down and i cant slide it up or down nor do the home back keys work. I have to hit power button to lock then hit power button and unlock then all is fine for awhile. And to be clear i dont have to power it off, just lock it. Another instance I'll be browsing the web and i go to scroll down it starts acting goofy. As if i got 2 fingers on the sceen trying too pinch to zoom when i clearly dont. Another silly thing happens where it acts like some one is remotely using my phone. For instance I unlock my phone and then it just hitting buttons. It's actually made a phone call for me before. Also happens when browsing or anything else.

I run miui build 112300 with sparks patch. I have ran this rom for a very long time so something tells me it aint the rom. I really dont remember what I've installed lately so don't know if an app would be causing this. Something tells me its a hardware issue but i was hoping to get some suggestions before flash something new or worse running the ruu to stock. Also, i dont think it would be the flex cable because it happens mostly without the keyboard out. Plus i rarely use my keyboard, although I'm using it right now.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
^^^ same thing happens to me. I think flashing the touchscreen firmware update would solve it but i haven't had time to try and fix it.

Shifted from my EVO
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
The first thing you can try is the latest Radio and Touchscreen Firmware HERE. If that does not work and the screen is still acting strange I would RUU back to Stock Unrooted. See if that resolves the issue. If not it's time to take it back to Sprint.
[EVO Shift 4G General] tbag1122:
OK, thanks for the suggestions. Just flashed the new firmware. Like I said it was very sporadic so time will tell. Hopefully this works cause it's been a long time since I rooted my phone and I'd hate to unroot it.
[HTC Rezound] fjl307:
My part of the country currently does not have 4g service. I have switched my Rezound to "CDMA only" instead of "CDMA + LTE"

Does anybody have an experience with whether this change will lead in increased battery life? I assume that the phone will use less juice trying to search for non-existent 4g.
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
Yep it should save some battery, especially since it isn't running in dual mode and only has to look for cdma signal
[HTC Rezound] hopesrequiem:
Used to do this on my thunderbolt and it was insane how much battery you save.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
i get better battery life when using cdma only.
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
I find the 4g isn't what kills my battery the most on this phone though, its that dang 720p screen
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
True... I only get 2.5 - 3 hours of screen time max regardless of any other settings, but lte drains the battery twice as fast as 3g only during standby.
[HTC Rezound] yoderz:
I tested this out today and was finally able to make it through an entire day without charging my phone. Didn't even drop below 70% in 10 hours on a full charge. I was having to charge it before I left for work, on the way to work and on the way home in order to make it through the day. Maybe I won't need that extended battery I ordered after all.
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
But with the extended battery then you can have 4g on all day :D
[HTC Rezound] Pixelation:
That will increase your battery life, but HTC batteries are not great. While having other HTC phones I had to do a great deal of taking for battery life. Usually the stock Sense Erroll eat a bunch of voltage, do you have a ROM installed? Ate you rooted? If so try titanium backup pro to freeze some bloat....other then that you are stuck with an HTC battery which is poor at best, sorry :)

Boot manager has been acting up for me too. I'm not sure what changed but I found this useful.

http://forum.init2winitapps.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=59

It's a list of working and non-working ROMs for all phones compatible with boot manager. They update the list fairly regularly so I suggest you bookmark the link and check back periodically.

Also there are some tips next to some ROMs telling you the settings you would need to allow that particular ROM to work.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gargantuantua:
I have had my evo for about 6 months. About a month ago I noticed none of my computers were able to recognize my phone any longer. I decided to just use FTP for transferring files. the other day however, my wall charger stopped working. I now have to wiggle it around until its in just the right spot to charge. My phone is rooted with custom rom etc. What should I do about this? Take it to sprint or mail it to HTC?

This is not damage from anything I have done, so I really don't want to pay $100
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threestripebrand:
Either place you'll get a refurb.

Good thing about htc is that youll get your housing back, just a new board. You can either throw a stockish rom on there or unroot it. Its a matter of opinion on which should be done.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gargantuantua:
Thanks for the reply

Will both charge me 100$ most likely? A friend told me HTC might not charge me.

I can just flash a stock rom without having to unroot? I also have a custom bootsplash.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threestripebrand:
I just did mine with HTC for free because I didn't think i would get a refurb. sprint will also be free if you have tep.

I would advise fully unrooting for HTC.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oOflyeyesOo:
Same problem, seems to happen to quite a few people. I don't feel like wasting my time sending it in, and just use a wall battery charger, along with 2 Anker 1700 batteries, so I always have one charged at all times, its easy to switch the new when when needed. I like it much better than having to have the phone connected to a charger, I never worry about that now. Two Anker 1700, and two stock OEM batteries, and Ankers seem to get quite a few more hours of life, amazing boost for such a cheap price for two batteries and a external battery wall charger.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gargantuantua:
What would be the easiest way to unroot in your opinion? I don't remember the method I used to get root.

That's a great idea about the batteries and external charger. I will definitely keep that as an option. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Your unroot method depends on the method you used to root. If you go to the bootloader and it says revolutionary at the top and you have hboot 6.16 then you s-offed with revolutionary. If you have s-off with hboot 2.16 or lower you used unrevoked
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gargantuantua:
It looks like I used unrevoked as my hboot is lower than 2.16. Should I follow this guide? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1151733

Or is their a more up to date method?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dschoenike:
I had the same issue. :( I went with the spare battery and wall charger route myself. seemed easier than unrooting and using insurance. being this way for 6 months now, and its really not an inconvenience. just gotta change the battery once a day.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threestripebrand:
Yeah just download and flash the s on tool zip in recovery and download the PC36IMG.zip to the root of your sd card and then boot into the bootloader and let it update that PC36IMG.zip

Reboot and then power off and back on while holding volume down and check to make sure your s on. That should be it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the2ndtinman25:
If i was you I would just flash stock ROM that's ill I have ever done, no questions asked. That's at the sprint store

I went with external charger and extra battery. Seems to be working great. Thanks for the awesome help and info everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mburris:
My GSM Galaxy Nexus from Handtec is having a strange connectivity issue.

My download speeds on mobile data are next to non existent. I get .1kB/sec with speedtest. My uploads are working however.

I have access to two Galaxy Nexuses (Nexi?) (my wife has one too) so I am able to do a side by side comparison at the same time.

Any Ideas?

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Have you checked APN settings on both?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mburris:
Yes. They are both the same.

I even pulled the adb radio logs of each while doing a speedtest to compare, but didn't see anything that jumped out at me.

Both phones are on the same radio version

I'm in the process of dumping the nandroid from the working one and restoring it to the phone thats not working, to further eliminate other variables.

So what I'm going to do is this:

1. Restore Nandroid backup from working Gnex on to non-downloading Gnex

2. Take Sim card from working Gnex, put into non-downloading Gnex

3. See what happens

4. Cry? (but in a manly way)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mburris:
First Test: Success

Test Setup:

1. Working Gnex Nandroid restored on non-downloading Gnex

2. Sim From Working Gnex inserted into non-downloading Gnex

Result:

HSPA Downloading functioning normally.

________________________________

Next test:

Factory Reset, still with Other Sim.

Result:

HSPA Downloading functioning normally.

________________________________

Next Test:

Insert Original SIM back into Gnex that wasn't downloading

Result:

HSPA Downloading functioning normally.

________________________________

Next Test:

Update to Euroskank CM9 Kang 226

Result:

HSPA Downloading functioning normally.

Looks Like the issue was somehow software related and has been resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's weird...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mburris:
I guess there was just some sort of software corruption happening.

Very strange as I had already factory reset earlier today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Ya that's the weirdest part. It took a nandroid restore from another device then a factory reset...

Glad you figured it out.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
As I'be been posting everywhere, fast chargers short the middle 2 pins. The phone sees this and determines it's a "wall charger". I always recommend the Motorola car charger as it's confirmed to have shorted data pins, or short them yourself with a dab of solder within the cable. Don't use it for data though. Won't hurt, but won't work!

Edit: fantastic work though, thanks for taking the time!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pj_rage:
Thanks for the tip on the motorola charger having the pins shorted. Is this the one you're talking about?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
Here's my dilemma. I used the stock Samsung cable with a 2.1A rated adapter from TomTom (rapid charge) as it was said it might be the pin configuration and lost more charge than using the same adapter with a universal Belkin mini USB cable with a micro adapter. My issue is that while using the GPS and streaming music, the phone loses charge while on the charger!

This is not acceptable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
Yes. Thats the one they elude to. Ebay has them for $7.59 with free shipping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hausman:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
Thanks pj_rage.

I'm pretty good electrically, but a bit less so with google. I searched, and likely didn't use the right string (happens pretty often with me). Got a diagram or a link to a diagram so I can see which two pins need shorting?

Makes more sense to me to go and modify all my car chargers rather than modify cables. I'll never use a car charger to transfer data to a computer, but might use a cable in a car in a pinch if I needed to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
So if I were to use the home adapter with stock cable hooked up to a power inverter While in my car, I should expect the 960mAh output then?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nm3th:
That should work, but kinda overkill. It's less cumbersome to either modify a dedicated cable or the car charger itself. Just short circuit the two middle pins.

Thanks for the research OP. Btw are you on AVS?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
That's the one :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Envy Diz:
Think the problem is people are not allowing their phones to drain before placing back on charger. My first out of box battery was about 40% didn't charge it till it was about 5-7% left. 2nd day I charged it to 100% which took about 3.5 hrs and than let it drain to about 20% before I put it back on the charger. 3rd day let it drop to 15% battery and placed on charger again. I've had my phone for almost 4 days and so far no problems, battery last 18-20 hrs on avg. Just my input I guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] over2land:
I've also seen issues with other phones when charging off a inverters with random reboots, some charge, some don't etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lastdeadmouse:
Lithium ion batteries don't work that way, and actually, they prefer short, fast charges. Android, on the other hand, seems to like a full cycle or two to calibrate its battery stats, but that might just be a myth.
