[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
i just did a quick hash check on my 2.2 & 2.3 imei backups..

turned out that all 5.img, 10.img & 11.img files have different hashes in 2.2 & 2.3 backups..

so im confused now.. why did the article suggested to use 10.img from 2.2 backup to mix with 5.img & 11.img from 2.3 backup?

can they be used in mixed mode?

[edit]

i think lovetide got this correct..

the orginal article didnt mention what version the 10.img should be used, and lovetide judged the author meant backup from 2.3, and this seems to be the logical explanation of my doubt..

but then, why would i wanna restore the imei backup for 2.3 before downgrading to 2.2?

cant i just downgrade to 2.2 first, and then restore imei with my imei backup for 2.2?

(that is to say, not everybody realises that imei backup is associated with base android versions..

after backing up imei at 2.2, i might not do another backup at 2.3..

then i cannot follow the article's method..)

Since unlocking and rooting my Rez, my wifi works intermittently. I have the stock ROM and Sense 3.5.

At least once every day, none of the programs using a wifi connection will work--weather, internet, etc. The status bar shows a strong wifi signal but nothing will connect. The only way to get it working again is to toggle the wifi off and then back on again. Then it works again for awhile.

Any thoughts about how to resolve this situation?
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
check router settings,restart router,check phone wifi settings in case you want to fine tune the sleep options. if problem still occurs then backup your data,wipe everything except external,reflash and you should be good

if I helped then hit the "thanks" option

Tried your recommendations but it is still doing the same thing.

[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
well if did a clean install after a wipe then either your wifi is borked or you didn't reset your router by unplugging it for a minute. might be your router depending on age and wear/tear

[HTC Rezound] rockehill10:
I did power off the wi-fi and it does work on the wi-fi. It just goes off for some reason. Again, if I toggle off the wi-fi and then toggle back on, it might work for several hours before it doesn't work again. Also, it shows full signal strength in the status bar. Then, toggle off and back on and I'm good to go again for several hours.
[HTC Rezound] dynofrk666:
I'm having this exact same issue so it doesn't seem to be isolated to just your phone. However, to get my wifi working again I actually need to reboot the phone as turning the wifi off and on again doesn't resolve the connectivity problem for me. I'm curious as to what would cause this, my roommate also has the Rezound using the current ICS leak, non-rooted (I'm non-rooted as well) and he doesn't seem to have any issues with his wifi connection.

FYI for me it isn't isolated to just one wifi network, happens to me on any wifi network I try so it seems to be directly related to the phone and not a router config problem.
[HTC Rezound] brock350:
What type of security settings are you using on your router? I used to have the same problems that you are having until I changed it to WEP.
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
Yuk... that really can't be the issue... if it is, you need to replace your router.

Stock Rom and everything I connect to is WPA2 without issues.

Occasionally the phone drops WiFi (like it gets turned off), but then it is using 3G/4G. Not sure why it does that, but it does. Doesn't prevent data access unless you have to 3G/4G access at the time. It doesn't do what the OP is reporting though.
[HTC Sensation] tonynkh:
Hi guys

need some advice here.

I've been installing apk file from dropbox for testing purpose for few weeks. Occasionally I couldn't press the install button (on the install screen), but it resolved itself after few attempts.

However, it doesn't seem to work any more. I just can't press the install button, but OK for the Cancel button. I've tried restarting with/without pulling out the battery. It still doesn't work.

Have googled the issue, only able to find this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1150096

But I don't have screen filter app installed, so that doesn't explain my issue.

Anyone have the same issue and know how to fix it?

Much appreciated.

Cheers

Tony

PS. Im installing from dropbox.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
When you say you are installing from drop box I take it you are using the Drop Box app. If so I would just try to install by opening your favored file explorer app, mine is Astro File explorer. Anyway find it with the file explorer and then try to install it that way. Or you can uninstall the Drop Box app and then reinstall it. Maybe something has gone wrong with the app. Just a quick suggestion.
[HTC Sensation] tonynkh:
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, Im using dropbox app. I've tried to copy the apk to my sd card and used appinstaller and astro to install it, still doesn't work.

I've also disable a screen brightness app Lux which I suspected have a similar bug to screen filter app, but still doesn't work ><

I was suspecting Lux causing the problem, but I only disabled the app, didn't uninstall it. Once I've uninstall Lux, it just works!!

I wanted to let the developer know the problem, but I can't replicate it. Any idea what the causes?
[HTC Sensation] pvyParts:
Iff lux puts a full screen overlay up that is what causes the issue. I think it is security thing. :)

Yeah it's a bug that you get with apps like Lux and Screen Filter. Somewhere within Lux there is a setting that lets you exclude certain apps and I think within the most recent build of the app it will automatically disable itself when you install an application
[HTC Sensation] erik1978:
For what's it worth:

I've had the same issue when using JuiceDefender.

I've granted Juice Defender acces to controll the brightness of the screen, because the auto brightness control in my HTC One X is too bright.

This caused the same problem!

After disabling Juice Defender's auto brightness, the installation of app's works as usual.

[HTC Sensation] Nquateman:
Is there a convenient way to find an app using "display system wide alerts"? So far I've walked down each downloaded app and opened each one, but can't find any using that permission.

I'm on a Galaxy S3 running Jelly Bean 4.1.1. I'm not using Lux, or any other screen filter that I'm aware of. I don't use Juice Defender. I am using Battery Mix, but can't see any settings there that affect the screen. I have Unknown Sources enabled. I've set the screen brightness to max. This inability to execute an install from an apk is driving me nuts.

Any other thoughts appreciated.

[HTC Sensation] pvyParts:
What features you want in a battery app. ;) ?

Pvy
[HTC Sensation] Nquateman:
There were several things about Battery Mix that I liked in terms of the graphs that displayed information. I also liked the control and flexibility of the display of remaining battery within the Notification bar.

But the thing I used most was a screen that had two parts. The lower part showed each running app (or service), and the percent of battery usage over a period of time (I think it was 12 hours). The top part of the screen showed a line graph. Each line, in different colors, showed each app or service. You could tap each app to turn it on or off within the graph. You could see the spikes of each app (e.g., a mail program sending and receiving, or a weather app updating). So, it allowed the user to answer the questions, "which apps are using the power, and when are they using it?"

[HTC Sensation] KingOfThaJungle:
Latest update of Onibabar causing this on my phone when selecting to have the battery bar on the left or right side only. Having the bar at the top or bottom of the screen won't effect it, but when the left or right side of screen has the battery bar going down it, the INSTALL BUTTON becomes unresponsive.
[HTC Sensation] pvyParts:
Because of how the overlay is drawn they cover the install button with a transparent box then boom "android says no".

My apps don't so this. So if ya like try mine if it has problems on ya fone let me know and I'll fix it. Or add some features you are after.

Just in case...

In case some others are impacted, I'm currently using the excellent "SlimBean + OpenPdroid + Halo" ROM by DennisBold, and the "floating" Halo notification ring causes this exact same problem. :(

Luckily, you only need to disable it (two taps on the ring and then move it to the "delete" zone on top) and the apk manager install button responds again.

After you're finished installing your apk, just open up the notifications area and click on the Halo icon to put it back on screen. :good:
[HTC Sensation] Azuma73:
Totally fixed my "install" issue!!

Funny how it was such a simple thing as just havin' halo on screen!?!?!?

Mooch-a$$ Grassy-a$$ holmes!!!
[HTC Sensation] DennisBold:
I detailed a fix (quick fix) on my thread, and it would be a bit rude of me if I didn't let you guys know about it. Try this:

http://184.173.234.188/SlimBean/Test/PackageInstaller.apk

Copy the file to your folder that contains ADB

adb root
adb shell
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
rm -rf /system/app/PackageInstaller.apk
exit
adb push PackageInstaller.apk /system/app/

Or you can download the APK on your phone then using a file manger. Replace the PackageInstaller.apk in /system/app/ with the apk you downloaded.

Then reboot. You should be able to install an application with Halo enabled now.

Solution for those with Lux

Lux is the problem. I had the same issue; I just hit the "sleep" button in the Lux ongoing notification, and voíla, the Install button worked.
[HTC Sensation] this-is-me:
I haven't read the whole thread, but if this workaround hasn't been mentioned, there is an easy way to solve this without the need for disabling stuff. I use a whole bunch of overlay programs, and I'm not about to go to each of them and disable them.

When there's an install window on the screen, just hold down on the cancel button until it turns blue, then slide off of it. Then the install button works fine.
[HTC Sensation] Noyabronok:
Night Mode app was the blocker for me

Just like Lux, I use an app called "Night Mode" that dims the screen. Once I disabled it the Install button worked. Thanks for the tip guys!:good:

hi, my solution with lux (and perhaps any other app cousing similar problem) was to disable "draw on top" permission using AppOps for a while, then install, then revert permission.

tapniete talkiem
[HTC Sensation] Neojerk:
Nice, easy fix.

I started combing through these forums after I tried to install some apk files and at the last step it wouldn't allow me to press the install button in order to complete the installation. After reading a bit, I investigated the possibility of a display-altering app but came up empty. The next solution I read was to use a 3rd party apk installer to install these non-market apps. Well, for whatever reason that did the trick right away. I just grabbed the first one that came up when I searched the Play Store, and was able to install the apps in question without a hitch. After this I was curious if I was going to have to use the new installer from now on, so I uninstalled one and was immediately able to reinstall it using the native installation program. Anyway, I'm glad I was able to learn through fellow Android users and found a solution rather quickly to my issue. Keep it up, you guys. Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] bubu2001:
don't disable the lux, block its permisions. works fine after
[HTC Sensation] rocketrazr1999:
You said you did not have any screen filtering app installed, then later said you disabled Lux. Lux IS a screen filtering app, and merely disabling it won't remove the layer you have allowed on top of your screen. So, my recommendation would be to DISABLE the layer, or not allow it, then uninstall it and install CF Lumen, which doesn't have the same issues. That should solve your problem.

Yes,you will only get about 1 GB of internal space for apps etc.

The other 3 GB of internal space is taken up by the ROM and system files.
