[Motorola Atrix 2] marquavious:
Does anyone else Atrix 2 attract dust like crazy? If so what do you guys use? Case wise, screen protectors ? What?;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
My A2 doesn't collect dust at all. My Otterbox, on the other hand...
[Motorola Atrix 2] DarkJatrix:
Mine gets it around the bezel inbetween the screen and bezel. Minor annoyance
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
I find that only place the A2 itself collects dust is around the microphone, but that's easily cleaned.

Pretty much all of the silicone-based ("squishy") cases will attract dust like crazy. Hard cases won't provide as much protection but they won't drive you insane with dust :).
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
I have mine in an Otterbox Commuter w/XtremeGuard screen protector.....only part that attracts dust is the silicone portion of the Otterbox, but a quick blow, pause, and the dust is gone.

Quick question, I'm running latest euroskank on my ladies phone and mine. for some reason after she deletes some pictures from gallery they come back after a reboot. Sometimes they reappear hours later. Like I said same Rom on my phone and all is well. What do you guys think it could be? She is using internal storage btw.. Thanks in advance.

That's weird, maybe try Clearing Gallery cache?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
You know I haven't tried that.. I even downloaded an alternative gallery viewer and it would do same thing. I will try that and report back with a thanks if it works. :-)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Same thing happened to me while using ICS Passion v11 on my Vibrant a while ago. I solved it by clearing data from the Gallery app, and then rebooting. If you don't reboot right after, the pics would always come back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Also some apps like Picasa and Google+ will sometimes put them back on the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
I will definitely try that Then as soon as so gets home.

Yea I have instant upload off for both.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
+1 on clearing data and cache. I think what is happening is that the image is getting deleted but for whatever reason the thumbnail isn't getting erased as well. The one and only time I had the ICS gallery bug all I did was clear the data and cache, and I have had no problems since.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Oh, and I didn't realize this, but some of the pics were synced with Picasa as well (feature of having a Gmail account on an Android phone), and kept resyncing. Try to uncheck that option as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
So I cleared data and cache and rebooted. I deleted some pictures and rebooted again. Soon enough they were back on camera folder. I just don't know why they don't permanently delete. She has camera zoom fx. I know she recently unintalled it because it was giving her problems. Think that might be the cause?

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Make sure she isn't syncing picasa web albums

Nope I unchecked that and Google + instant upload a while back

[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
I said that first. :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
Yea that's not the problem. I've had it unchecked for months. I'm thinking it might be camera zoom fx data that's messing things up. Like I said before she unintalled it because it was corrupting all the pictures taken thru the app. I'll delete that and see was up.

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Really? I've had Zoom FX installed for about 3 weeks now and I haven't noticed any problems with deleted photos. Are there any Gallery replacement apps installed? I use QuickPic instead of the stock Gallery app, since I've read it drains battery by constantly scanning for new pics.

Now that I think about it, I used the stock app on the Vibrant as well. Haven't noticed any issues since installing Quickpic... try that and see how it goes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] psychoace:
So are you saying you turned it off from the app or in settings under accounts? You keep saying upload but it's download you want to turn off. Camera fx won't have anything to do with this. When the app is uninstalled it has zero chance of running rogue code. Especially such a popular app as that. Try doing a search for all jpgs on your device through your desktop/laptop search function. Make sure it's absolutely clear of the photos you want including cached ones. If none of this works you might just have to do a system format and reinstall her os.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
Yea I canceled picasa sync under settings. I also canceled Google + instant upload just cuz. Think I am going to do that. Complete wipe and reflash latest rom. Thanks everyone for your input.

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
I'll try that.. She is using picsart lately.

EDIT : I just cleared data under gallery, rebooted, deleted over 60 pics, rebooted and they all came back. Time to wipe and re flash rom!

Try deleting the LOST.dir on your SD card. That's essentially like emptying the recycle bin on windows. That may help.

Did you ever get this figured out? I am having the same problem. I delete photos from gallery and they all come back. I turned off Google syncing of photos & apps data, Disabled Google +, Picasa, I don't have Facebook syncing photos, cleared Gallery Cache and Data, unloaded Dropbox, Deleted LOST.dir. Every time I reboot, the deleted pictures come back. It's driving me nuts!

Oh, and even disabled the gallery app, deleted the pictures from the SD card and then re-enabled it. I'm totally miffed at where the pics are restoring from...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
Re flash or new rom. Dont exactly remember
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mfarronay:
Hello, I am new here, but I was reading the comments, on how to fix that re-appear images issue as I had the same problem. I first checked with my tablet, to see if it was the rom/phone that was doing that or the sd card. as I changed the SD card into my tablet, the images were there, but then I deleted them from the tablet, and they seemed to have stayed deleted, so I new it wasn't the SD card, I put it back into my phone, and I cleared the cache of the gallery but that wasn't the issue either since my gallery also saw them. I used "Ol File Manager" to browse and try to see where it was storing them from, and you can find under "storage/emulated/icon of sd card/ (even while the sd card is not present) you can open the folder and it has a lot of stuff stored there that belongs to the SD card, I looked under a folder named ".thumbnails" and voila! there were plenty of the pictures my SD card had, at first I was afraid to delete them as I thought it might delete my pics, but then I realized all my pictures were stored in the SD card, and those were just copies. I wiped all those thumbnails, then went to DCIM/Camera, and also found a few, I also deleted those (note all these should be out the SD card on.) I put the SD card back on and it worked. Deleted forever!

SO, long story short use a folder browser go to Storage/emulated/(sd icon image)/thumbnails and delete, also delete the thumbnails from DCIM/camera. I hope this helps in case anyone else has the same issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RockStar2005:
Thanks so much man! Your posting helped me out regarding deleted photos on my Google Photos app that kept coming back no matter how many times I deleted them.

I had accidentally set my Camera app on my HTC One M8 to save my pics on my SD card. Doing so apparently is what created doubles on my Google Photos listing. So I just deleted the thumbnails folders on the SD card and internal storage (under DCIM folder for each), and switched Camera app setting back to "Save to internal storage". That did the trick. The duplicates were deleted and app issue fixed so it won't happen again. Your post helped me to resolve the current issue, and switching the camera app settings back to default (internal storage) will keep it from occurring in the future.

You rock!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] rrb6699:
ive given up on this. there must be some conspiracy why they dont want or let you delete pics and files. I cant use my sd card because I was taking coaching vids for analysis. once the sd card got past a certain % full, this problem started. ive used every utility I can think of then decided im wasting my valuable time because the Android file system has such drawbacks and they refuse to fix it so they can help sell sd cards. if anyone finds a real solution please let me know. im done wasting my time on this and may just buy a basic phone. computers dont work either. every system with win 7 on it is self destructing under guise of a hardware problem but we all know what's goin on...
[Motorola Photon 4G] SexyMoPho:
Well I have searched high and low and have not found an answer yet so here goes.....

I have a Pioneer AvicZ130BT stereo in my truck and I have just switched to a Photon from an EVO 4G. I am having issues with connecting to the head unit over BT. It will work some times and sometimes it will disconnect the phone and shut off the bluetooth on the phone.

Q. Are there any updated or legacy BT drivers that I might be able to try to get these two to play nice?

Q. Is there an App that might be helpfull.

Any help will be appreciated.:)
[Motorola Photon 4G] thatguy07:
Are you running on stock?

I know certain rom/kernel combos are having Bluetooth issues. I am on cm9 with the original kernel and connect to my blau deck in my bimmer and a pioneer deck in my blazer no problem.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SexyMoPho:
Yes the phone is stock but has root through the All In One Root just for hotspot. The phone had issues pairing in the parking lot of the Sprint store but I thought I would be able to work it out. I have tried just about everything but can not get the phone to connect automatically or consistently.

My EVO worked perfectly. I spend alot of time in my truck and this will be a deal breaker if I can not get the phone to play nice with the truck.
[Motorola Photon 4G] studentjunk:
I have been having similar problems with my Bluetooth. My keyboard disconnects randomly and my headset often disconnects. I posted a question about updating Bluetooth stack, but no answer as of yet. I did try cm9 and the keyboard seemed to work better. However, i didn't use Bluetooth nearly as much while on cm9.

For me not a deal breaker, but i am hoping the motorola update to ics will fix things.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SexyMoPho:
UPDATE

Just wanted to say that the phone is connecting very well now and seems to be streaming Pandora and other audio just fine. I did download some 3rd party apps like bluetooth manager and car dock settings that do help in configuring the connection better. I also think that I may have been a little impatient waiting for the phone to connect automatically and may have been causing more issues than the phone. My Evo connected very fast and this phone is just a little slower but I can live with that. So in short, the phone is working as it should and I will stay a SexyMoPho for a while longer I think.

Thanks to all
[Motorola Photon 4G] Scorpio0378:
What did you do?

what did you do to get it working better?
[Motorola Photon 4G] zansatsu:
YMMV:

This worked for me.

su to root:

rm -rf /data/misc/bluetoothd/*

This nukes your Bluetooth (bluetooth daemon) stored settings. Handy if you've dirty flashed any ROMs.

I found this here:

http://sandeep.wordpress.com/2011/07/02/this-is-why-i-love-my-android-phone/

Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for your phone or command line fowl-ups. If you know what you are doing, have at it. If not, research it. :P

Edit: In the interest of due diligence, I have to add that there was also a firmware update for my Pioneer DEH-80PRS. Between nuking the Bluetoothd settings on my Android and updating the Bluetooth Firmware on my Pioneer car stereo, I have had flawless operation ever since. Pioneer has a disclaimer that if you don't have an IPhone, you don't need this update... I think they fixed something they aren't admitting to. You see this often with big companies that throw things in under the radar.

Hi, i've bought an unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation and was running Android Revolution HD for Sensation gingerbread. my Camera app has suddenly stopped working... I've tried updating to latest ICS from Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 but still the camera is not working. when i start the app... the screen flashes and then again I'm back on the home screen. Strangely, when using application "mirror" it starts the front camera... and that is working fine... and i've tried multiple apps from market for back camera...but its not working using any of them... can you please help me out with this... any help in this would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks

[HTC Sensation] Deadringers:
Got exactly the same thing happening with me guys...any ideas?

Have updated to the latest firmware etc and wiped everything several times and tried installing it with different options but still cannot get the camera to work :(
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
this is weird did you tried other camera apps?

if its still not working then

do a superwipe and flash rom again and see(this method erases data ..so backp them before hand)
[HTC Sensation] flnycus:
Similar problem, if i click the camera or camcorder icon the screen goes black, it either stays black until i take the battery out or it crashes and restarts?! Weird, cant use it to take pics in any other apps either. front camera is fine on skype though...!? everything is uptodate nothing was updated recently?! Anyone

(Im on stock)
[HTC Sensation] toreone:
This happened to me once when i was stock. I would do a battery pull and it would work again..but finally did a hard restore through recovery and cleared all the caches and that worked. Now im rooted and on energy GB rom and I have not had that problem anymore.

Just flashing a new rom did not help. I actually had to do a factory reset on the ROM as well..in the Setting/storage.
[HTC Sensation] golfwang:

[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
Go to Task Manager>>Advanced>>All apps>>Find the Camera app and select it>>Force Close if it is running & then Clear Data.

This should fix it.

If not, get this app. Go to primary and secondary camera, & check if they both work.

If it works, then there's a problem with the stock app.

If not, there is either a problem with the camera or with camera access.

I would suggest reflashing your current ROM, since this seems to solve issues, many a time.
[HTC Sensation] chineseromeo:
Try installing another pyramid

have you tried to download a special or customized pyramid from the sensation android development department and then tried out your 4g??? a customized pyramid + tweaks will allow the htc camera to work because the htc family usually creates htc's like as if they were real babies.. the htc's adapt to you and then little by little all the problems like "over-heating reset, camera faults and random keyboard touches" are common problems with the htc... installing a different pyramid or returning it for another new one will usually fix this..
[HTC Sensation] Deadringers:
Thanks for this mate...As I said I have re-flashed the rom several times but get the same issue!

the main Camera has a red cross through it on that app..I guess it is broken?

Any help would be much appreciated!
[HTC Sensation] musa91:
hi there

go here

and download the one that suits ur sense 3.6 or 4 and flash it over clock work recovery it will reflash ur camera apk with moded working fine apk i hope this will fix it peace ;)
[HTC Sensation] Deadringers:
okay done that....took about 2 seconds to flash and when rebooted it said "android is upgrading"...

Is the camera working!?

NOooo! :( :(

I guess I will have to take it back to vodaphone shop now?

Thanks for your help mate
[HTC Sensation] kgs1992:
As far as I can tell, your camera is not being detected.

I would recommend that you do this:

1>NANDROID backup

2>SuperWipe (it can be found in this post at the very end)

3>Re-install ROM (Remember to check MD5 before installing)

4>Check if the Camera works.

If not, then Super Wipe and restore your previous backup.

If it works, get back to me. (PM me if I don't reply)

If you have further questions, feel free to ask.
[HTC Sensation] musa91:
U welcome any time

Last try the kernel is the 1 who responsible for device driver defention try to flash:)

Stock or moded defrrent kernel from development section there's allot of

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maganja95:
Hey...I hope this is the right section to post this in but..

I have a rooted viewsonic G tablet Bootloader 1.2 and I have CWM on it...well I flashed GTabCombOver (latest version) and i was getting frustrated because everything I would download would go onto the INTERNAL memory not to my micro SD card so I went into settings and erased all the content on the internal SD card and rebboted my Gtablet but now it wont go past the android part...it goes past the birds but then restarts...idk what to do please help i can boot into recovery but dont know what to do
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaggerDave:
So you are saying that you erased the Internal memory, meaning you erased your rom? If that is the case, and you can boot into CWM, select the 'mounts and storage' option from the main menu. Plug in the usb cable to your PC where you have a copy of the ROM. Then in CWM select 'mount USB storage'. That will mount the internal sdcard to your PC, where you can copy it over. When finished copying, unmount from PC, then unmount in CWM and press back. Then you can proceed to reinstall the rom like before.

If you just erased the /sdcard directory you could try wipe data/factory reset first and see if that will work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LenAsh:
For those who simply need a stock kernel image that is insecure and nothing else, here it is.

Will work with .42/.62/.69 stock ROMs and give you easy ADB ability. ADB Remount and go!

(Based on the reliable .62 boot image).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] chacho_2me:
what you mean insecure?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LenAsh:
ADB works without having to mess about with the shell/su

(Makes modding the ROM easier and faster. And pulling/pushing files (apps and lib files etc. for instance), amongst other things.)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] chacho_2me:
ok...can you make a kernel like this for ICS? cheers
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] LenAsh:
I think it would be better to wait for a released stable kernel first... but yes, it is easy to do.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] chacho_2me:
hmmm..yeah..better to wait...and after that, i believe there will be new mod ICS kernels..thanks dude
