[Windows 8 General] drupad2drupad:
Is there a reason why this reg edit won't work? Is it the way Windows 8 determines screen resolution changed? It would be SO much more practical to let this be changed as multi tasking is a nightmare on an old laptop with Windows 8. I'm not sure if I can probably use this key I purchased on some other laptop if I was to format this system and go back to Windows 7 on this one.
[Windows 8 General] ruscik:
Win8 now uses graphics drivers to determine if snap can be on or not. Sucks but there has to be a way.
[Windows 8 General] dragon_76:
The "Snapped" app is a specific width, it doesn't change with the resolution, only the length changes. The larger app is what gets changed. Because Win8 apps will not run in less than 1024 width, the only thing you would be able to run in the larger space would be the desktop. Now, that DOES sound useful to a lot of people, being able to Snap a Win8 app while on the desktop, but that is all you could do.

There are instructions on the internet to allow for resolution scaling on 1024x600 netbooks to get Win8 apps to run (although the ratio is off and the image is distorted). You maybe could use those instructions.
[Windows 8 General] helf:
I'd just like to chime in on this.

I just finished setting up Windows 8 Pro on my brothers original Dell Mini 9. I enabled the scaling registry tweak and set the monitor to 1152x864 (1024x768 wasn't very pretty). I then set the DPI scaling to 160% and went through the TrueType wizard and chose all the options that looked the best. The results are actually pretty darn good. More than usable for how he uses the laptop.

I'm also running Firefox 17 on it and I set the minimum font size to 13pt. (settings -> content -> advanced)

I do not have enough posting cred to post URLs, so if you wanna see screenshots, do a google search for "flickr ressedue". My page will be the first hit and the first few images in my feed, currently, pix I took of it.

[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
@young blade: Did you ever consider either reading the thread or trying that tweak before posting about it? NO, THAT DOESN'T WORK and that's the whole reason this thread exists. It only worked on a very old pre-release version of Win8 (note how it's dated from 2011?) and doesn't even work on the more recent pre-release, much less on the actually released version. The specific registry tweak was already posted in this thread and shot down... it's only three pages, you could have done that much reading!
[Windows 8 General] young blade:
Hi.. and a good day 2 you 2..

Sir/madem,

I did read the thread but I did not notice it was the same tweak and also the link I posted also contains an application to accomplish the same goal..

When I posted the link I did not notice it was only functional on the early builds.. When I came home and I was reading the comments on that page I notices this was the case..

So I hereby offer my appoligies..:good:

I know its frustrating as I didnt get it to work on default myself..

Hallo together.

Give it a chance to Flash my Sensation. Recovery tool does not work.

What can i do?

Greats from peterpan1957
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
You will need to provide a great deal more information in order for anyone to be able to help.

E.g.: Is the phone Stock, HBOOT Version, S-OFF/S-ON status, recovery installed, F/W version.

You also need to detail what you are trying to achieve.
[Atrix 4G General] kevinv626:
Pretty sure I soft(hopefully) bricked my phone. I had my phone unlcocked and rooted with the darkside rom. I had been putting off installing the new update because I knew doing it OTA wouldn't work and I wasn't quite sure how to do it otherwise without step by step instructions on here. The update thing kept popping up and at one point I accidentally clicked yes to download it and just now after a about a week of the install thing popping up I clicked yes. Now when the phone starts up, it fully loads to my main screen and then shuts off and goes to the little android guy installing and then it has the yellow exclamation point screen. It's been a while since I've done anything with the phone like unlocking it or anything so any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bfinch:
Sorry if this has been answered before but I can't find the answer.

I got my gsm razr today and I love it but I can't send a text message, I can receive texts and surf the Web. My phone us showing 4 bars of hspa. I can even tether, but no sending sms. My phone says error code 500.

Only thing I found on google said restart it and SMS will be.fixed but that didn't work.

the phone is rooted on 2.3.5 if that matters.

has anyone had this problem and how can I fix it?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Notyours:
I have the same problem. The only way I can get mine to work is to put a SIM from another account in my phone. Enter *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone Information. Refresh the SMSC. It will populate with the correct information. At this point, I can send texts from the phone. Put in the original SIM (do not reboot phone) and then you should be able to send SMS from your number.

The only problem is that the SMSC number does not stay through reboots. I have to do this process every time I reboot.

Does anyone know how to get this number to stick?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] evonc:
I don't have the same problem however I have noticed that GOSMS Pro from the market does allow a Customized SMSC setting in the Send Settings tab. Perhaps you can try that out and see if it fixes the issue?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bfinch:
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried both but neither work. I really like this phone but not having text us killing me. Someone please help
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bfinch:
Well I went to att and got a new Sim card. Now my texting is working. so I guess that is the solution.
[HTC Sensation] xam4:
Hi, I bought an used Sensation from Ebay. Unfotunately it's in bootloop and I don't know what to do. I wanted to reflash via RUU, but I don't know which, because the device doesn't boot. Is there another possibility to find out which RUU is needed? (Fastboot or something).

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] Jedi2011:
was it listed as in boot loop, or working? If listed as working, open a dispute.

If not, use fast boot and get the cid value, that will tell you what ruu you need to use.
[HTC Sensation] xam4:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] impactor:
Every few minutes, a GPS icon pops up in my status bar even though there is no GPS apps running in the background. I installed LBE Privacy, and set GPS access to PROMPT for all applications I saw on the list, including system apps, I even deny it to Google Framerowk, and still it happens.

How can I get to the bottom of it?

I am running Cyanogenmod 7.2.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
If you go to lbe privacy guard and look in its event log it should show any apps that have activated your gps.

Alternatively you can download a logcat viewer from google play and it should tell you in there but be warned if you do that the log can be huge.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Btay913:
Hello I am experiencing a BIG problem . I Successfully flashed a Nand rom to my phone last year it worked great but after some shortcomings I could no longer afford my pay as you go plan. My phone service had been cut off for about 7 months until yesterday, since it was off so long I had to get a new Tmobile(us) account/SIM card. My phone booted up in android as normal with full 3G service bars but when I went to make a call it said "This Carrier will not allow phone calls to this number" shocked I went back to Tmobile to make sure my account was active and it was. My text also do not work and I cannot sign into my gmail account either. Ive searched the web and it does not seem that anyone has a solution to this problem PLEASE help me !!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] joshnchen:
Did you try reflashing it?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] htccraze:
There are a few things that could be going on here:

1. tmobile has you on the wrong data plan which has happened to me in the past. The had me on a blackberry plan which messed up a lot but you should still be able to make calls.

2. You have a balance left over on that phone and tmobile has locked that phone

3. you need a new sim card. tmobile will gladly change out your sim for a new one for free

4: something is going on with Android on your phone.

I would talk to Tmobile again and ask for a new sim or go in the store and see if the sim you have will work in one of their phones. If it does then you know its

something with your phone. I would kind of start over just to clear up any problems. Start with making a back up of anything you dont want lost, including your

sd card. Then repartition your phone/sd to what the ROM you want to use needs. Reinstall MAGLDR and cwm and finally the ROM you want to use. See if that

helps at all. If i had to take a guess it could be something as simple as the simcard is messed up but without having them try it in another phone or you trying

it in another phone you wont know for sure. I know it seems like a lot but reinstalling this stuff should clear up if its your phone or your sim thats messing up.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bipinsen:
Before you blame Android, flash your phone with stock WM 6.5 rom. If you still can't make calls or get any data, take the phone to a T-Mobile store and have them figure it out.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
I think I stupidly posted this in the General forum, so hopefully I'll have better luck here. Here's what I wrote before:

Hi, I'm trying to unbrick USB on my Atrix using this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751265 but every time I try and use the fastboot command 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' I get 'FAILED error:00120000'.

I am really tearing my hair out! failing this, would flashing via fastboot fix this error? I tried reflashing using fastboot with the CM9 ROM I had handy but adb didn't like it (my installation is borked you see, I can get into recovery but can't reflash the ROM 'cause my sc cards can't be read...so I'm in a bit of a vicious circle here).

If anyone can help I would be so grateful.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Which recovery are you using atm?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Hey,

I'm using ROM Racers custom ROM, from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1204500

Would that make a difference?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
That's a recovery, not a ROM. :rolleyes: derp

Just messing with ya. :D But if you have Romracer's recovery you should be able to mount your storage from within recovery. There should be a "mounts & storage" option in the menu. That should allow your computer to read the card and/or internal as usb storage. Or, if you have a card reader you can put the necessary files on your sd card that way. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Yeah thanks but I know this...Ok, here is my problem: I can't mount the internal or external card in recovery, it comes up with ERROR: can't mount / emmc and Error: can't mount / sdcard . I can't mount either card on the PC either and as described in trying to fix the USB connectivity it comes up with the 0x120000 described above in fastboot. On top of that the installation of my ROM is borked (which was Jokersax's ICS beta but I have several others on file I could use)...so I can't reflash the handset. ALL I can do is get into recovery - and a fat lot of good that is doing me!

On top of all that, the reason I ended up like this seemed to be when I erased the internal memory card from my Mac...and this was out of pure frustration fro the mysterious random reboot issue, for which I'd tried almost everything else. But one step at a time eh? :confused:

So if anyone can help I'd be really glad right now...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
Do you have a card reader? Have you tried formatting the sd card (either through recovery or through the computer using "mounts & storage")? Do you have another sd card that you can try?

Can you be more specific as well? When exactly are you getting the "error" and have you tried "mount usb storage" option in "mounts & storage"? Do you only have a Mac or do you have access to a Windows computer?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Ok, I cannot mount the sd card in any way, either through recovery or on the PC.* the SD card is fine as it the phone registered the card as empty (and read the empty card fine) until it started refusing to read anything at all.* Mount USB storage option definitely does not work (it was working and then it stopped)

*

The error comes from trying the USB unbrick solution (link in my original post at the top)...in fastboot I am trying 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' and then in red writing the ERROR 0x120000 (or whatever it was, it's above) appears on the screen of the Atrix and in the command line box on the PC (I am using my windows 7 laptop for all this btw, don't want to confuse you with my mentioning of the Mac above).

*

So...I either need a way to flash from Fastboot so I can get a working system again at least AND/OR I need to fix the USB connectivity (so I can mount the internal/external card on my PC) and fix the mounting in the Atrix itself.* If I can fix the mounting issue (both mounting within Recovery and mounting on the PC) I can then reflash (and use my SD cards again).

*

Any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
I would think reflashing a newer recovery fron fastboot might help you with your problem if your current recovery is borked. (CWM 5.8.1.8 maybe?)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Ok, so I have installed the CMW touch recovery over fastboot...and I can now mount the external SD card. I have also managed to erase the external SD card using fastboot (fastboot erase sdcard) but the phone still can't see it. The internal memory is untouchable either through recovery or fastboot
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Try a fastboot -w command and flash a new ROM from the external see if it works. It would be easier if we knew what caused you to have this problem...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Right, some good news...I have managed to partition my SD card from recovery (only to 4 gigs though but it's a start...), managed to put my and now I am rebooting as I type...although it's taking a long time to reboot...

Maybe I should do a fastboot -w first
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
Yeah it's still not booting, even though I installed the rom from recovery.

Thinking back my troubles started when a) I wiped both the internal and external to fat 32 from my Mac and then b) I converted all file systems to ext4 from the advanced menu. Yeah, that may be it...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Yep... that'll do it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdjj:
So...in order to fix this, can I simply reformat from a Linux box?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
to be honest... no clue. I really never thought of messing with the partitions like that.

I know that the voice and car dock settings are supposed to enable this but I have found it to be extremely unreliable.

You can use Tasker to set up a really robust solution that will see when the phone is in the car dock and then enable Speaking aloud of text messages automatically. Take the phone out of the car dock and it disables the function so you dont have to remember...

You need two profiles and three tasks.

1.Profile named "Read SMS"

◦Context: Event -> Phone -> Received SMS

◦Enter task:

1.Misc -> Say -> Text: "%SMSRF sent the following message: %SMSRB" (without quotation)

2.Profile named "Toggle Read SMS"

◦Context: State -> Docked -> Type: Car

◦Enter task:

1.Tasker -> Profile Status -> Name: Read SMS; Set: On

◦Exit task:

1.Tasker -> Profile Status -> Name: Read SMS; Set: Off

NOTE: (1) You need to create the profile Read SMS first. (2) You will need to disable the Read SMS profile in Tasker otherwise all SMS will be read regardless of whether the phone is docked or not. After you do this, reading of SMS will toggle when you insert and remove the phone from the dock.

It looks like it would be pretty easy to alter this to read the messages when you are in your car and it is connected to bluetooth, even if it's not actually docked. That way it could just be sitting on the seat next to you and read a message without you having to pick it up and look at it.

And since it would have to be hooked to your cars bluetooth to work, it wouldn't just read messages while sitting in your pocket :O

Good work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SirSparkles:
Learning Tasker, added to the OP

A little late, but in case anyone else is looking...

I used the OP as a template, but the author...following the link, says they couldn't get the 'Read SMS' to disable/exit.

I just started using Tasker, and wondering what the 'Invert' button was for... It looks like it's a variable to say 'Not' in a context.

So, I just added the checkmark for 'iinverted' to the above forumla in front of the 'exit Taks' 'read SMS', and the additional 'Context' says 'Not Docked Car' (along with 'Docked Car') above it.

And voila!
