[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jerrybritt:
In moving my music from Samsung Epic 4G Touch to my new Note, well over a thousand of my song titles as well as artists names are in Chinese which of course creates problems playing the songs I want to hear. When I take the SD card out and put it in another phone they read normally. Any ideas or thoughts on how to solve this issue? Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
Your post isn't very clear, are you suggesting that you can't see chinese characters in the title and artist names on your phone? Or are you suggesting that when the songs are added to your note the titles and artists turn into chinese characters??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jerrybritt:
Correct, turned into Chinese characters which I can't read. About 20% and all songs added at same time, same day, same source.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
Could you perhaps post a screenshot, it just sounds very far-fetched and I can't really imagine what this looks like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LouisXIII_HTC:
I'm having a very similar issue with my Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro MK16i.

I copied Chinese songs from my laptop to the memory card, and then insert into the phone but the song titles appear as garbage on the phone. I also tried copying the songs by connecting the phone to my laptop, and sending from bluetooth, but the results is the same, the Chinese song titles appear as garbage.

But when I put the memory card into my laptop and other laptops, the song titles in Chinese appear are normal Chinese characters.

There is no problems with song titles in English characters.

The issue is the same whether I set the phone language to English or Chinese.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taywings55:
Quick noob question.

I rooted with unrevoked a while back and have been very happy.

Currently:

And. version 2.2

software 3.70.651.1

Hboot: 2.10.0001

Just wanted to update to the most recent OTA as I'm fine with running the stock ROM. Just wanted control over sprint bloatware and free wifi tether.

Do I need revolutionary and do I need to run each update in order or can I simply update via the most recent OTA (rooted OTA of course) and it be all inclusive of the changes throughout the preceeding updates?

Thanks for any help with my basics! ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threestripebrand:
Yeah never except an official ota.

You run the risk of losing root or bricking your precious evo. Its fine to flash an updated rooted ota over your 2.2. Also the official latest updates are apparently a pain in the ass to root (so I'm told).

There a couple devs that are pretty quick at pushing out the rooted ota's in the dev section. Just flash those to keep your control of your sprint bloat and not have the worries of rooting again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
First, do NOT take an OTA if you are rooted, never.

Second, since you are rooted, there is no need to re-root, as long as you update the correct way. Just download a stock rooted rom for the latest ota in the dev section, and flash it like any other rom. That way you stay rooted, and are updated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrollercoasters:
that im not sure about that, this will def work just bare with me ill get ya hooked up. put this file (evorec)in your c:

http://db.tt/RFKLNzlS

make sure its not zipped after you dl... open cdm type this in order.

cd\evorec you will get this evorec> then type in this.....

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-supersonic-v3.11.img

it will force install recovery .i just tested this 3 times so i know it will work. inside the folder is ra 2.3 and 3.11 img. also the flash command i posted (you must be in fastboot for it to work). if you want to use 2.3 just change the numbers only in the flash command. if for some reason you cant dl the whole evorec file. copy all the contents make a evorec folder yourself and place it in c: follow the steps after that.

NOT OP
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dreading:
Okay, a little late for me as well...in same boat as OP. I currently have it downloaded, when I try to install I get an exclamation in a triangle and a blue android. But, fortunately I can reboot and get back to my set-up. Is there a way to clear the download from my system/status bar?
[General Questions and Answers] hakstarr:
Anyone know what the advantages/disadvantages are to using the method talked about in the forums instead of using htcdev method to unlock the bootloader any thoughts?
[General Questions and Answers] GrimReaper24:
One is for hboot 1.5 users HTC dev for the EVO 3d and other phones that have no other way to root . Leaves you rooted S-ON other one for older hboots full S off can flash any thing :D

Depends on what hboot you are and if the unrevoked rev team has full root out .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] griffindodd:
I paired up my Note with my new Belkin A2Dp Car kit and found that I am not able to control the bluetooth volume for the phone/voice profile.

Voice input sounds distorted as does any voice going out to the speakers. In calls the person I am calling sounds distorted and they say I do also. Obviously voice commands are useless as the phoe cannot identify what I am saying properly due to the distortion.

It's as if the mic-boost is blasted all the way up for the voice call bluetooth profile, is this the same issue of Samsung's crap BT stack that they never seem to fix?

I tried using an App called A2DP volume to force volume settings on connect but they have no effect on the BT in call volume, even the volume rocker on the phone does nothing during a call.

I dont see any volume or mic controls on my bluetooth device as it is a car-kit.

The music audio quality over A2DP is excellent and not distorted at all.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] griffindodd:
Yep the A2DP profile is clear and sounds great, as I said in my post, but the phone call profile is distorted and blown out, adjusting the volume on the phone seems to have no effect on this profile.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
To clarify...no issues on mine. .phone calls included

I had a similar problem with a Kenwood player once. I had to update the player from the Kenwood site to fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] extrem0:
I think it's a bit outdated, but did you manage to fix it?

I have this belkin device and the same volume call issue (can't use it for calling). Tried with the phones in my signature and with an iphone 4s and get this issue with both. Only with an iphone 3g I could control volume successfully. Maybe it's only compatible with apple devices. iphone 4 doesn't work because ios5 disabled bluetooth call volume control.

It's too disappointing..

Bluetooth Distortion

Hi there. I upgraded my SGS i9000 to Jellybean JRO03L recently - latest build is excellent. However, Bluetooth call quality is distorted as per Griffindodd but ADP2, although relative quiet is very good.

Can't figure out what options I have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Afishl1:
Have the same issue in terms of controlling car music volume on the dashboard, but haven't noticed call quality, just got the a2dp application and will let everyone know how it works

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Afishl1:
figured out a work around for myself, so I found that when playing through Apollo I could control the volume on dash but not while playing Pandora and others, so what ended up working is loading both, pausing Pandora, playing Apollo to get volume control, then holding down the back button to kill Apollo(make sure this is enabled in developer options in phone settings), then Pandora should start playing again all by itself and still have volume control.

Hi guys recently my phone got wet and I had to order a replacement. Ok I got the replacement an it turned out that phone was a POS!!! Today I called the verizon warranty center to get a replacement for the replacement :p. I guess it turns out now they are just upgrading continuum users because it is such an old phone... Now I will be getting a droid X2 tomorrow in the mail. Its like an double edged sword. This has to be the best phone forum on XDA!!!! I will miss you guys lol.

Just wanted to share the query I use to grab wallpapers. It always works pretty well for me when I can't quite find what I am looking for, or the various "mass" wallpaper sites are loading too slowly:

1. simply go to https://www.google.com/imghp

2. enter in filetype:jpg hd walpapers

3. download all the wallpapers you want!

You can replace or add on to the filetype:jpg hd wallpapers anything specific you are looking for like filetype:jpg hd wallpapers blue for obviously blue ones. You can also change the jpg to png or whatever for pngs.

[HTC EVO 3D] nadomars:
Thanks for the link! Would the same wallpapers work for an HP Touchpad running CM9, or would I need to find something higher resolution?
[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
after you search for something like: hd wallpapers

if you look on the left hand side, you can choose from Any Size, Large, Medium, Icon, Larger Than..., and Exactly. if you choose Exactly you can put in our screen size, which is 1080x960 (its actually 540x960, but the wallpaper you need has to be double the width of the screen)

edit: @nadomars you would have to find your resolution. if your tab's resolution is 900x1500 you would search for 1800x1500. (<- just an example)
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
You can actually just search for ANY image in Google Images and then change the criteria to give you "EXACT" measurements of your image and get them that way.
[HTC EVO 3D] krayziejoe:
Having a hard time finding good wallpapers in the right size for the E3D. Whenever I search for 1080x960 pics, they are too big! I don't understand why you need double the width when the background doesn't move like it used to on older HTC phones (Hero/EVO 4G).

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

Why double the width when the background doesn't scroll? Whenever I use this formula, the wallpapers are way too big and cut off the edges when assigning them as the wallpaper.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Use the "Exact" option, and put in 960 x 540.
[HTC EVO 3D] krayziejoe:
I did do that, but I was wondering why the guy above was saying to double the width.

Not a great selection on Google for 960x540

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
Well I had two choices last night, exchange my perfect transformer prime (working gps/wifi, no bleeding) in for another one due to averaging 4-5 hours of battery life after .15 on powersaving - or to unlock the bootloader and test to confirm it's not the battery.

I decided the more risky choice to void the warranty because I didn't want to gamble getting a bad unit. Installed CWM, flashed virtuous (.14 version) - battery is performing quite well so far.

Still need to test it a few discharge cycles but it's looking like .15 was a bad egg at this point.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Um, er... Battery life on mine is much better on .15. I can get 10 hours ebook reading, light browsing, etc. 7 hours on heavy browsing, video, etc. The only thing that would take me down to less than 7 hours is heavy gaming (e.g., Shadowgun). And this is all running on Balanced mode with auto brightness.

I haven't heard of poor battery life being a hardware-specific issue (although it's possible, I suppose). But it's also not specific to .15. I'd think that anything that limits to 4-5 hours is either than quite unusual hardware problem or some app or background service that you were running that was causing problems.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
There were at least 3 reports that I'm aware of that .15 was a battery killer. My battery life was never amazing (think my tf101 gets better life) but on .15 it was just ridiculous - which lead to speculation that my unit may have a bad battery. As far as apps go - BBS said my browser was killing my battery - but I'm using the same browser on a different rom without as serious of a drain.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
you have to think about it, that's only 3 reports out of over 320 xda prime owners here. I've got great battery life also with .15. well at least you getting good battery life with virtuous rom. that's all that matters.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
.15 fixed all battery drain problems that all people experienced with .14. .14 caused significant battery problems for everyone without exception, and .15 fixed it for everyone, without exception.

If you're having battery problems, it's definitely not related to .15.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
You're joking, right? I would actually amend my own post to say that it COULD be .15, but likely if there's some app that a person is running that doesn't play well with .15 for some reason. My point was only that I would look hard at running apps and services before concluding either that the hardware is bad or that .15 is NECESSARILY bad, in and of itself.

Doesn't mean, though, that .15 couldn't be interacting with something on this user's machine that previous updates did not...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
Why'd you do it, ickkii, why?

Question. Why void warranty to find out? Why not just root it, and go back to stock .14 Asus official image, using the "replace the blob" process in the dev section? I had some issues with .15 myself - the very first FW update that did not agree with my Prime. Nothing disasterous, but some static lines, and bobbing of the screen a few times, but it blew away the best GPS numbers I had achieved to date (I know, I know, but I am stubbornly hanging onto the dream, LOL!) Anyway, I rolled back to stock 14 and all is well again. Unless you had issues there as well?

---------- Post added at 05:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------

And that is EXACTLY why we need Asus to provide SOME kind of documentation with these updates, otherwise, it's like we are all walking around in the dark, applying everything they put out there. I can see the logistic issues with changelogs, but really, this method is madness. I commend Asus for providing fixes, but without documentation, they have limited value to people trying to resolve an issue or 3
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
that's what I trying to tell him in his other thread instead of going the drastic route. but if its working well for him then so be it. only thing is, flashing that rom wouldn't really tell you what the issue was. that virtuous rom going to get decent battery life anyways because its optimized, Zip aligned, and stripped of some stock apps.

I'm so tempted to try out Virtuous rom. all I here is good things about it. plus it has 1.6Ghz overclock built into Asus quick settings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Kudos I guess? lol I'm having to resist that damn Unlock apk like crazy

I'm hitting on the second day on .15 with my dock :( At this moment the dock is at 17% and the tablet at 74%. Battery statistics are jacked up thanks to the dock so I can't provide a screenshot of my time off the charger :mad:

Hope ASUS or Virtuous and the like will somehow fix that so we can get an accurate look at our batteries even with the dock.

I have noticed though, that .14 was loving 102 MHz and .15 loves to sit at 475 MHz. Seems they put the same idea of a fix for .15 vs .14 as they did .13 vs .11, they're just leaving the lower states actually intact. I mean, they're being used, just not as much as they were.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
Only problem I had with battery life was on .13 - .14 and .15 have been back to normal on my C1, no issues here...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
because i didn't feel comfortable with the brick rate. I still have 30 day exchange with gamestop anyway... I doubt they boot their exchanged units into recovery to check if the bootloader is unlocked - and even if they do, I'm exchanging it through gamestop's rules - not necessarily asus's.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
Do you think a tool similar to setcpu would work on tegra 3 to lower the minimal cpu speed? Perhaps that could be the problem. In sleep my unit purrs, but I'm thinking the tegra 3 could also be running too high on average for remedial processes, kind of like you said.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Yes and no. Others seem to successfully be using it.

Whenever I use my SetCPU I'm greeted with random reboots, especially if I use profiles to try and underclock.

You might could use ViperControl or the other in the dev section to at least manually set it through terminal emulator to run some tests as to whether or not that is your issue.

But the higher CPU states are definitely what were killing my battery on .13 and now .15 (although it's not nearly as bad... for me... but it did provide me with my first random reboot caused by the system).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
I've used both SetCPU and Vipercontrol since picking up my TFP, and not once under any firmware so far have I had any random reboots.. AT ALL. Everything works fine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
Did you ever try a factory reset and run it stock for a day or two to see if it went away? It's an easy way to rule out an app causing it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
I had it stock for 5 or 6 hours last night and it was still .15 and the battery usage didn't seem to improve.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
That's quite odd as I have great battery on same firmware. Don't know what to tell you man.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
I think I may need to undervolt my tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Oh absolutely. After undervolting, my phone went from 1 to 3 days use.

What am I looking at here though, what's that app? Just another way of looking at the percentages spent at each state huh?

That's a solid amount at the 1.2 GHz there. I only show that kind of usage if I forget and leave Shadowgun or GTA III running while I take one of my strolls around town. Even spending an hour and a half on Skype last night, the majority of my time was spent around 880 MHz.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
It's setcpu, info, time in state. thought you said it caused reboots for you. Are you using an old version
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Right, it (SetCPU) was, so I haven't had it installed.

No, installed right from Market. Haven't tried it in several updates though, and I've never navigated into anything other than its Profiles settings. Undervolting and most other changes I feel comfortable with applying myself (on my phone at least. I still don't know many underlying concepts of much that I do), or usually prefer another app.

I'll install it again and play around, I just abandoned it early on (for my tablet) due to my issues.

I don't have ICS on my phone, so the different look caught me off guard having not paid much attention to it in this state :D

*EDIT:

Ok, so it does seem to be fine these days. Currently keeping it only at 102/204 MHz and its actually doing ok. Used to the thing would die off. Maybe when everything was still running on 1 core I guess?

Guess I'll set up my profiles and see how it works out this time.

Ok, last edit. Profiles turned off I can use SetCPU to lower the frequency. Set profiles to do it based on battery levels or temp or anything and it's a no go. Doesn't do a thing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
have you set the priorities higher?

like right now I have the clock rate set to 1.2ghz when battery <101% (basically when you unplug it), with a priority of 55.

then I have it set to 1.1ghz when battery<80% with a priority of 60 so the first setting doesn't conflict with the second setting, since they are both under 101%.

basically I repeat it down to 800mhz, escalating the priority for each profile as the battery lowers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Yeah, priorities are correct. I've got my Prime closely mirroring my phone's setup which is at its optimum.

Just tried swapping my order to your suggestion, and it's doing the same thing. It's hit and miss, sometimes I'll only jump to the maximum I set, sometimes it jumps to the maximum set by ASUS's quick controls. So, still not as useful as it's being on my phone >.>
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
Hm... it would appear as though mine is working. I may attempt to verify with a cpu meter to be sure but here's a screenshot (at 41%).

Notice the max under the cpu speed is set to 1000, compared to the average one underneath it set to 1.6ghz.

When I let the battery go down 2% to 39% it dropped to 880 on the first menu, but when I plugged it in it jumped back up to 1.6ghz.

looks to be functioning, just have to give it a feild test.

880mhz did get a tad unresponsive earlier, could have been something else causing it. You'd think 4 cores set to 880mhz would still be pretty responsive. Might try raising if I notice it again, or scaling ot to preformance rather than powersave.

EDIT: looked a little into those profiles and I'm taking it off powersave and switching to conservative. Powersave attempts to run it close to minimum and preformance does the opposite.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
What the profile is telling my Prime to do

What my Prime is actually doing when it spikes to maximum use (using recent apps drawer in quick succession, on every android device I have ever used, causes spikes to maximum usage)

When I do this same test with my phone, it never goes higher in the white (Green) than the green (Red), but the Prime utterly ignores my ass.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] foxmeister:
Hmm, guess I must be the exception that proves the rule since .14 didn't cause me any battery problems whatsoever! ;)

Dave
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
