Did you get the battery from Ebay or anywhere similar. I have a similar problem with an "official" OEM battery that supposedly has NFC antenna but doesn't recognise tags.

Yes, I purchased the battery from ebay and i have checked the model number which matches as well as the look of it.

Im attempting to get samsung to verify the serial # on the battery.

my htc touch hd is window mobile 6.1 i can't set up with chinese

in regional settings ,it have much language but i can't find any about chinese

have anyone can tell me what i can do to change my phone language ?
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
in general, windows mobile roms only one language, which is indicated by the rom name itself. WWE is world wide english. you should check sites like shipped-roms.com for roms in CHS (chinese simplified) or CHT (chinese traditional).

[HTC Sensation] aeroseek:
The usual solution would be to restore a nandroid backup.

Barring that, try clearing cache and dalvik cache then rebooting.

Also a quick search on XDA: http://www.google.com/cse?q=sensati...gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=sensation bootloop&gsc.page=1
[HTC Sensation] xdaco:
Your present firmware does only support a GB based ROM. Did you try to flash a ICS based ROM?? If so you will get bootloop. Flash a GB based ROM or restore is GB nandroid backup.

You are S-ON . So It is difficult to flash new firmware to use ICS. You can not install a PG58IMG.zip to upgrade your firmware. So if you are interested to use ICS you have to flash an Official ICS RUU. Else you can run revolutionary to achieve S-OFF after installing a working GB ROM. S-OFF will make your life much easier.

Thank you so much... I think that my friend tried to update to ICS.... I will try to find tutorials how to flash ROM to HTC, and what GB ROM do you think I should flash?

I've tried with "fastboot oem lock", and now it is "RELOCKED" but now I get SIGNATURE ERROR 133 while trying to flash RUU :(((

Found somewhere that I need SuperCID... but it is not working...
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Why on earth did you "fastboot oem lock" ??

Anyway, before you go anywhere, can you get S-OFF, without S-OFF almost all changes are impossible.

At the moment can you issue any ADB commands to the phone e.g. "adb reboot-bootloader" ?

Look at: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

Make sure you read, read and re-read before trying anything further.
[HTC Sensation] exploit20:

No, I can't issue ADB commands, error: No device found... even when I try to list... but fastboot commands are working....
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Have you tried to S-OFF using revolutionary in its current state ? It currently supports the following HBOOTs:

"HTC Sensation (pyramid) 1.17.0006, .0008, .0011 and .0012, 1.18.0000" so yours is covered.

Guys our friend has my same problem.

After replacing the screen (only digitalizer) the phone has lost sensitivity in the far right. At these points is impossible to write or bet something.

why this comportament?Is possible that screen are bad mounting?

Any advice or help will be of great satisfaction. Thank
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AllFlasher:
This mod lets your battery charge on its own without any cables. Screen shots added

Directions.

1.Download extweaks from the market.

2. Wait till battery gets under 40%

3. Open extweaks go to reset fuel guage chip and push it.

4. Sit back and watch the magic happen. ;-)

This is purely for entertainment. Nothing is actually accomplished by doing this except maybe making sure it doesn't happen again.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JustinW3:
It could charge without being plugged in! lol... I'm sure someday we'll have a technology that allows it. But I can't imagine that any sort of battery would ever be able to charge itself without an outside force acting on it. Unless they managed to find some chemical compound that changes the way it acts as the charge changes, sort of like starting a pendulum, where it swings back and forth losing just a little bit of power each time it changes from one state to another. That would be pretty spiffy.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Hunt3r.j2:
Voltage drops faster, fuel gauge compensates, then as the voltage calms down as the drain load decreases, the fuel gauge will adjust the battery percentage upwards.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JustinW3:
This seems the most likely thing, as it always happens after a large load on the battery. I guess it makes since, Li-Po batteries have a higher voltage when resting than they do when under load. So a Li-Ion should behave similar I suppose.

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] nishant_713:
I was wondering after the new update of Google Play, how could the users outside the US be benefited from the new Play Store. Well after some search and research I found the way !! There is an app called Market Unlocker Pro in the Store (Its a paid app) which can do the job !! Market Link (Only the Paid version will work, the free version wont help). After installing the app, launch it, then enable the option "Enable Unlocker" and then in the Proxy tab, tap on Fetch USA Proxy, then after the data is fetched, enable the option "Enable Proxy". Close the app, clear the play store cache and then launch it. Voila !!! Thats it !!! Here are some snapshots of the full enabled Play Store (Taken from my galaxy 3 in India!!!)

Using the app is better cause it allows you to enable and disable the proxys.

Nope. it aint gonna work without the US proxy disabled, so you can't just use the Market Enabler... It just fakes the Network Provider..

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] bunglebp:
Great! but quick question..if you use the proxy settings and set to US for example..can you still buy items if your phone is actually outside US and does it affect anything else or just allow US apps on non US phones? e.g. is it safe to leave as set to US proxy only apps appear in dollars or does it affect anything else?

I've been using it for a long time

I'm in Dominican Republic, I use proxy when I want to access the full Google Play Store, I even bought a nexus 7 and a nexus 4 using a proxy, I recommend using 2 step verification for increased security.

But something really strange. Since last week I get the full Google Play in all my devices and in the web without using a proxy, I don't know if this is permanent or if if Google is changing their policies but it seems like it's activated in my account. Before I had to use a proxy every time

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] naskox:
Once the phone is recognized as from USA it unlocks the hole Google play everywhere on every PC and phone as long as u use the account the phone is. If only there is chance buying things...
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] NorskHelgen:
What I had done earlier was changed the location address of my credit card. One way or another it believed my VISA was an American card and I could make purchases from the American account. You could also try eBay or http://maximuscards.com/ and buy a Google Play card. MaximusCards charges slightly over the cards value in order to make a profit, but they are legit and I have used them for Google Play gift cards about 4 times now without any problems.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] naskox:
I too change to actual american adress, everything matches except the card is not American, but thi doesn;t matter as long as the adress is American, now when I buy I believe they check my IP if it is american and if I am on the phone maybe even the carrier, so I will try in the next week cause my card will be given then I hope it will work, maybe the VPN connection was discontected right before the purvchase idk, Is there a chance Google to f**k me up by deleting my future purchases if I get caught? Also do you create VPN while buiyng and from where do you buy from phone or PC?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] NorskHelgen:
I haven't had a problem the last few purchases, but if Google is picking up on your IP and/or country location I would suggest TunnelBear VPN. It's the service I swear by on all my devices. When you start an account they start you off with 500mb to use off VPN data. They also have a promotional deal where you can Tweet their service and get another 1gb of VPN data for that month. TunnelBear will fake an American, Canadian or British location (I use this for Spotify as well).

What worked for me in the past were these steps:

1. Close/kill the Google Play app.

2. Download TunnelBear and make an account. Go into the TunnelBear app. Sign in. When you have signed in, turn the right handed dial to "USA" BEFORE turning on the left handed dial.

3. Once you have selected your location, turn on the left dial. TunnelBear will prompt you to allow it to use VPN services. Allow it to. After about 30 seconds it should connect (you'll see an image of the bear digging into the ground. That means it's connected. If the bear is stationary then it's not connected).

4. Go into your Google Play app. Just for safe measure, press the menu key and go into the 'Accounts' tab. Even if you are on the account you intend to use, press on that google account again anyway. This ensures that Google picks up on the VPN location.

5. Find the app you want to buy and try purchasing it. If all goes well, it should work.

From my experience, TunnelBear only works on WiFi, but it has worked flawlessly on purchases.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] naskox:
So in order to buy I have to use VPN, my question is do you have top use it?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] NorskHelgen:
In your case, your device will need to be running in the VPN in the background while you make the purchase. If the VPN is not running when you go to buy your app, you'll continue to run into the same problem.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] naskox:
OK I will give it a try soon. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] royecohen:
Hi All,

I would greatly appreciate your help with a major problem of mine. I have been searching the web for some time trying to find a solution.

The short story is:

I need some way to access the SD card on my SGS2 GT-9100 from certain applications in windows. E.g., when I try browsing for a destination folder in the phone through these programs, my phone is not recognized at all.

The long story:

The problem I am trying to overcome is copying of images from my computer to my phone without changing the creation date (for sorting purposes). When copying from my computer to my device this attribute changes an thus all images have the same date and there is no way of making any sense of which picture was taken when.

So my plan is to get access to the images on my device, after altering there dates, and use a program which will change the creation date from the modification date (which holds the original date taken of the pictures).

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance,

Roye

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
I appologize upfront if this is a n00b question but something is anoying me big time.

I like flashing ROMs and occasionally do a fresh and clean install. I have backed up everything using Titanium Pro and Nandroid but I tend to leave them alone since everything can be freshly installed and what's the use of a clean install if you then restore everything right?

Now for my contacts I sync with 2 Google accounts, FB, Twitter, Linked-In, Skype, Whatsapp and some more less famous stuff. Everytime I do a clean install I have contacts double in my persons app and I have to manually merge them.

This is costing me a lot of time. Is there a way to backup these contacts "merged" and restore them, without loss of the sync mechanism with those accounts? Or is there at least a way to let the merge take place somehow automatically?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ginobili1:
The best way to do it would be to EASY merge the contacts, like HTC Sense shows you duplicates and you can just one-click-merge, but since I have found no information whatsoever on this being a possibility on ICS, I guess you can try to use TB to do that.

When you flash a new ROM, guessing its some updated version of ICS, you can try to restore DATA only to the People app after actually making sure that all your accounts are added. So just before starting to manually merge them, go to TB and restore DATA only from your most recent backup from the earlier ROM.

Haven't tried that, but will do once I flash a new one. Running 4.0.3 TEAM KANG AOKP now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
I thought about that too but what I'm afraid of (although start over with a clean install would solve that too) is that all my contacts (hundreds) would show up double, making it even worse. One from synch and one from restore ;-) But.., certainly worth a try the next flash....:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geojoking:
Have you found a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Nope, sorry, merging them every single time I do a clean install. But since I am using my current ROM for quite some time now (stable and fast) I don't have the need for clean flashing. A dirty flash is sufficient. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
are all the contacts stored on google's servers? you can merge the contacts through there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Yes they are, but somehow I still get random contacts that aren't merged after synching. It is not reproducible since the results are not consistent. I guess it is somewhere on my side but after a clean install which I do once a month at most it rakes half an hour to merge the ones that went wrong so it's not worth the effort for me to deep dive this one :rolleyes:
