[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
Sorry if I came off too harsh, I just often tend to have a really strong opinion about this because I feel that the minority (Head Fi kind of people) has to speak up very loudly in order to get the majority to hear. The SOL line is actually considered to be the most reputable of the mainstream non-audiophile lines. Tyll Hertsens (well known reviewer) contends that SOLs are the only decent type of headphones along these lines, so I'll grant you that. So instead of saying

"****" I guess I should say "decent" (though I will still say that Beats are ****). The main reason that people say Beats are **** is that they are so overpriced-you're paying for that B and all the marketing that went into making it so instantly associated with headphones. SOLs aren't nearly as overpriced, though IMO they are still somewhat overpriced, which is why I would say you can make much better choices if you take the time to do your research and find out about the non artist/marketing driven brands (AKA brands that truly focus on the product).

The big problem is that Beats/SOLs and the like sell so well because people don't know what truly good sound is until you hear it. Most people go from listening to Pandora (low quality source) with Apple buds (low quality phones) to listening with better (though still not good) headphones like Beats/Bose. So of course they think their new headphones are good. I can guarantee you though, if you listen to FLAC files on detail monster monitors, you will be opened up to a whole new world. That was when my whole opinion changed. I have 2 sets of mildly audiophile grade headphones, the first I got are known to be incredibly detailed and flat monitors. With FLAC files pumping through them (good source combined with good phones), the difference is incredible compared to what most people are used to. You hear things in songs you haven't heard before, can place instruments, etc. If I ever get an external DAC, I'm sure that will bring me to yet another level of sound quality.
[HTC Sensation] alexmaras:
Unfortunately there tends to be some very heated discussion between those who listen to beats and their ilk and people who go to head-fi etc (although there are some pretty ridiculous discussions on there regarding cans and whatnot) - essentially everyone has to stick to their price bracket and try to get the best they can afford - jesusfreak is bang on, the koss ksc-75s are a fantastic (and cheap!) set of clip on 'phones. I personally wouldn't touch beats with a 10ft pole and they are overpriced. I don't say that as a matter of opinion - in terms of similarly performing cans, beats come of badly. Anyway, I personally use a pair of Grado Alessandro MS-1's, used to have some KSC-75s and still have my Beyerdynamic DT250s, but this is all off topic, cause it's well outside of what the OP wanted in terms of price - apart from the KSC-75s.
[HTC Sensation] gustav30:
my recommendation would be AKG K272s for a closed pair of cans or AKG K702 for a pair of open cans. I would get a portable amp to help as both need a good amount of power to drive them but you won't be dissatisfied.

[Networking] manekineko:
Not sure how common my problem was, but I picked up a Pantech Element in order to replace my old Galaxy Tab original, and for some reason, it just wasn't showing 4G LTE in the corner, even though I was in a 4G LTE area. If anyone else has this problem, hopefully this will help.

The AT&T store reps first tried to convince me it must just be a display issue, and that it still had LTE. Speedtest quickly demonstrated this wasn't true.

The AT&T store reps then tried to convince me that it said on the display for the Pantech Element that LTE is only available in select markets, yeah the standard language on all LTE devices, and that therefore the Pantech Element was limited to select areas to get LTE and couldn't get LTE in all AT&T LTE areas. That was obviously BS.

We changed out the sim card for both the blue and green microsim cards but that didn't fix it, and even tried cutting down one of the regular-sized AT&T sim cards, but that still didn't fix it.

We double-checked that my prepaid data connect plan showed that LTE was enabled on the account.

We noticed that the sim cards in the display models that worked with LTE all ended on the first line with 425, whereas all of the sim cards we tried ended with 325.

We managed to dig up one sim new sim card that ended in 425, and just to make extra-sure programmed it with a brand new account on it, and after it popped up a message on-screen asking if we wanted to turn it on (never saw that message before), the LTE suddenly started working.

Given that we tried two new things on the time that finally worked, it's unclear what exactly fixed it, but it seems like probably there can be problems moving from a 3G device to an LTE device on a prepaid data connect plan. If that wasn't the problem, then maybe you need a micro sim that ends in 425.

I am running CM7.2 and wanted to take a backup of my phone. But the phone wouldn't boot into recovery if I turned it on with vol- and power, but stayed stuck on green android instead.

But if I boot into CM7 and select the option "boot into recovery" it goes into recovery and works fine. Please help
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Weird. Flash cwm from rom manager again and try.
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
I have tried flashing the latest CWM from clockwork(5.something) as well as 3.0.1.4... both show the same issue

Furthermore if I flash any TPT it doesnt go into CWM and the only way for me to then recover my phone is to install Mile high moldovian pie TPT+ROM which boots the phone and then allows me to go into recovery and flash CM7
[Blade General] karthiknr:
There is a cm7+tpt. Its even there for Swedish snow. I don't know how to solve it though. Very rare issue.
[Blade General] Faiz Malkani:
U tried flashing an alternate recovery? Last option in rom manager

Sent from my Supernatural Blade
[Blade General] N79:
Try to flash a other ROM, or go to ROM Manager and re-install CWM (I'm using 5.0.2 and have no issue). If the problem is still happening check md5 of the files (ROM,CWM)
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
:confused: Ok guys thanks anyways.

Is there some other way to repartition my phone so that I can install ICS?
[Blade General] Faiz Malkani:
If u have the default 220 MB system partition then u don't need to repartition. If not, u have to get into recovery :what: and flash a tpt with tpt helper from Google play

Sent from my Supernatural Blade
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
Yes but when I try a TPT the phone refuses to boot into CWM so I cannot flash a ROM. Then I have to flash a TPT+ROM (MMHMP which has 128 mb system partion)

UPDATE: Tried installing CWM from fastboot as well... still cant go into recovery

UPDATE 2: Tried the windows flashing technique. Same thing.
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Flash the Gen2 v10 TPT if you already are Gen2. You don't need recovery for that. This way you can install ICS but you still would need to boot into CWM for it.
[Blade General] nfs1mw:
I think there are no alternative recoveries for blade.

Are u facing this issue recently or is it there from first.??

I can't suggest anything except one, flash the stock recovery from CWM. Then check whether u are able to go to FTM mode by holding volume down and power. If yes, reflash CWM recovery from rom manager and check again.
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Amon ra works for blade right?
[Blade General] nfs1mw:
Don't know, but from the rom manager I cant see alternate recovery highlighted
[Blade General] karthiknr:
Lol. Cwm and rom manager both are developed by Koush. So,not surprising.
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
Yes I can get to FTM mode on flashing stock recovery but not CWM
[Blade General] Kannibalism:
im not sure if amon ra is compatible with the ZTE Blade but i can assure you that if an alternative recovery was available for the blade it would be in rom manager since the nexus one has amon ra listed there.

@op

try the fastboot method for this to work you will need to fastboot and adb drivers they can be obtained by installing the android sdk

Steps:

1) Boot the phone into fastboot by holding power on + volume up while connected to the pc via the cable (leave the phone in this state for now)

2) download clockwork mod recovery image from the website http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

3) go to the android sdk folder which is called "platform-tools" and paste the downloaded recovery there

4) shift + right click to open a windows command terminal in the same folder as the pasted recovery

5) run this command fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-blade.img

this will install a recovery for you i had a problem similar to your and this was the solution that fixed my problem
[Blade General] Gokh:
Ra recovery is compatible with blade (there is a tuto but it's in french) ;)
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
I assume that flashing from linux makes no difference. I could successfully flash from linux but it would still not boot into CWM using vol- and power

should I try amon ?
[Blade General] Kannibalism:
i use linux to so if you already tried it will not work mate sorry for giving windows instructions but most people use windows :P

as for trying amon ra recovery i found one that works on the zte blade so far credits go to its respective developer not me mate http://android.modaco.com/topic/328806-recovery-ra-recovery-for-zte-blade-oledtft/ i never tried it but it says it works on the zte blade OLED & TFT versions
[Blade General] nfs1mw:
Also try

fastboot erase recovery

And then

fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.img
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
No same problem with this as well. I can only go into recovery if I choose reboot into recovery and not with the shortcut. The green android stays and the red led stays on.

Is there a way to flash a rom using fastboot? OR a way to reboot into recovery using fastboot?

Thanks for trying guys!
[Blade General] :
I think we can't reboot to recovery from fastboot because "fastboot reboot recovery" isn't working.

As for flashing rom from fastboot, it is present in some devices .

command is "fastboot update rom.zip"

Even in those devices one can flash a zip given by the device manufacturer only. When flashing rom / zip from fastboot it checks for "android-info.txt" and/or "android-product.txt" inside the zip package both of which are manufacturer specific files for that device. So even in those devices I think one can flash only stock roms / updates.

But u can flash nandroid backup image files from fastboot (to device partitions) with the commands..

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata data.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

(flashing system didn't work for me giving less memory error).
[Blade General] karthiknr:
I think you're having issues with the recovery partition. Cwm is installed on a separate partition right? Maybe its not detecting your key press pattern.
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
Stock recovery does detect and go to FTM.

So basically I cannot do anything other than wait for someone to make a TPT + ROM for ICS. :(
[Blade General] saaransh9:
Why don't u use a all in one tpt with cwm and cm
[Blade General] cyberpyrate:
isnt that gen1->gen2?

also the partitioning on it is 160mb system which is too less for ICS
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] shifty331:
Is there another way to get the roms for our phones since the site is down
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] JonathanBarca10:
Did the reposts stop working?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] shifty331:
any of the posts that i have looked at do not work.. i want to root my phone but there is no where that i can get any of the roms because of the upload sites are down.. do you have any roms that you have stored on your comp that you could send me a copy?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] d3xtro.:
If you search through the threads of the roms, a lot of people posted re-up links, but it may take a little bit of searching to find them. There is also a rom reupload thread in the development section, if you haven't looked at that yet. I think the links on there are new and should be working.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] shifty331:
I just found it.. Thanks for the info
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] levant_c:
Hi,

I know there is a specific post, but i can't post in it.

I have a pb with this rom, with the 1.3, i cant download from google play (not enougn space....)

and with the 1.2, when my phone is in use and a sms will arrive, the phone turn into the apple logo and ask me again for the pin code. so i never receive this sms.

does anyone has a solution ?

thanks by advance for your hrlp
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] levant_c:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Armazia:
Are you sure you used SD-Ext(the Ext3/4 partition on your SDcard)?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] levant_c:
how to konw ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] levant_c:
I guess that yes coz' i have a A2SD+

Am I right ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] levant_c:
Nobody to tell me ?:confused:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] walidhazem:
Yea, move ur apps to SD

Go settings applications manage applications and try moving them
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Nah because he's on an SD building so doing this will ensure that all of the apps won't work. For the same reason an EXT partition is unnecessary. In actual fact you should be moving all of the apps to internal storage.

@OP Unfortunately that isn't your problem and I can't really help you, sorry
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] elroyknight:
To start things off, I'm new to flashing roms on the prime. I apologize if a similar thread has been made, but i searched and i could not find one.

Right now I'm running aokp rc1 and im looking to flash the most current virtuous rom(Virtuous Prime 9.4.2.21 v1). Seeing as how the aokp rom is not a stock based rom, i was wondering if there is anything different that needs to be done when coming from a cm9 based rom back to a stock based rom? or do i just wipe and flash, like usual?

Thanx in advance! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reNeglect:
Make sure you're running the latest CWM, maybe download rom manager then check from there. Also for some reason wiping /data does more harm then not wiping /data. For now just make a nandroid of AOKP, then flash Virtuous .21 then let it boot up, if it has any fc's and such then try wiping /data. Don't forget to wipe Cache and Dalvik for sure before flashing.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
Hi All,

This is my first ever post in this section. I have searched a lot and find a nice software application to be used as a PC suite.

I know many people are addicted to the PC suite and this software is only for the lovers of PC suite.

What this software can do? Here we go for a quick list:

1.Sync Files

2.Image preview of the mobile pics in PC.

3.App management

4.Call logs

5.Messaging (able to send/read msgs,backup)

6.Can change wallpaper with a click.

7.Contacts Management

8.Can take screenshot (Still as well as video)

9.File Management.

And a lot more features......

So go ahead and give it a try.

I am not taking any sort of credit for it, I have found something important and just sharing with you all.

I would like to thanks to MOBO team the developer of this application.

Here is the link........

Enjoy.......

Press Thanks if the above post helped :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] .xxx.:
Thanks for this. Really needed it. Every time I found any pc suite it was basically paid or trial version. I guess mobo is completely free as far as I have used it lately.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
Yes it is absolutely free and also the version is beta 1.

May be they will make it paid in future.

But being time it is working nice....
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] MrToastbrot:
Looks nice, but the App on Android is in Chinese or wathever and I couldn't read any Data on the phone.

Another App is MyPhoneExplorer. It's free and stable, has the same functions as MoboRobo but not that nice Interface.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
For me it is in english....Try to install the software again and select language english..not sure whether it gives an option to install language because i am in office..will confirm when reach home..But you can try once.....
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Dynam0:
Unfortunately it crashed when I tried to run it on Windows 7x64. I even tried in various compatibility modes, none worked.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
You can report it to their website..I have checked this on my Windows 7 32Bit. and it is running flawlessly...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Dynam0:
Yes I will have a look at their website later. Might try it on another box I have at home, that is XP. Thanks anyway, looks like a useful program, is I get it to work :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
On XP it will work but not sure about X64... and yes it is a very useful software and I have Pinned to my statusbar of my PC :D
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
New update released...Wow I am loving it more...With a new UI and a lot more new features...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kimLJT:
THANKS

DESERVED a 5* & THANKS :D. Really appreciate it a lot for sharing this one. Though I saw it from Panda apps but didn't thought that mobo is separate from them *which is japanese version* until I saw it from your thread :D. At last I can now send/receive a message using my PC/Netbook which I after from this POWERFUL SOFT but seems got more feature to LOVE *backup everything on my phone, install/uninstall apps & manymore*. By the way my phone is Galaxy Y (Young) - GT-S5360 :) *just sharing* coz our device is not on their support lists but it's working fine :D. THANKs again DUDE :D.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Dodo81997:
Thanks, i will download it! :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] rocker86:
Welcum mate ..I am glad that peoples luving this software.just a share could help other people was beyond my imagination. Once again thanks to mobo team for developing such kind of a wonderful software.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] josefene:
moborobo

Strange I downloaded it too and it"s all in English, that is why it came out so people that use English language can use it.

[Q] Anyone tried several ICS ROMs and can say which is most stable?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matbarni:
Passion probably...

Not a single reboot in 2 month of use...

Long battery life...

I did not find any incompatibility issues...

BUT... afterall... is just a matter of opinion...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Passion is OLD.

Try ICZen.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convotutor:
for me its the euphoria rc1

smooth and no prob except the GPS issue
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VibrantThemer:
Try Xodus
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikesdot:
I'm going with ICZen
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mani_is_ms:
ICS roms I've tried (from my favorite to least):

CM9 Nightlies (March 31st) - The smoothest ICS rom I've used. I'm getting decent battery life with no deep sleep issues. Not as many customizations but all the essentials are there. GPS isn't working for me ATM. It's also based on 4.0.4.

Slim - Very smooth, stable, light-weight and customizable. Decent battery life with no deep sleep issues. GPS worked for me.

ICZen - Smooth, stable and VERY customizable. GPS doesn't work for me. Decent battery life and sleeps every time.

Passion - Stable, most everything works. Not the smoothest rom though. GPS works for me.

Euphoria - RC1 is fairly stable, fast and smooth. I've had some deep sleep issues though. RC2(.1) is very laggy for me and GPS doesn't work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CravenSouls:
ICZen works great for me. Much smoother than Passion on my phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ast32:
I've only been able to test ICZ, Passion, and SlimICS.

SlimICS is my new daily. I started out on 2.8 and it was exactly what I needed. It blew me away as far as it came to ICS roms. I'm on 3.1 now, but it has gotten a little buggy since. I highly recommend trying 2.8 and seeing how you like it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
Amaze music player will not play full mp3?

OK all; I’ve had this issue with both of my phones (one went swimming). It didn’t bother me so much before as I had not yet did the full merge for phone only use of music. NOW that I am using my cell as mp3 player like I should, this bugs the **** out of me!!! ***ANY help or knowledge on this matter will save me from doing another destructive test! *****

What happens is when I play any mp3 file that is longer than a normal or standard track it switches to the next track without finishing the current one. Such as a 1.5 hr continuous mix, around ten minutes in it switches to the next mp3 file (whether it’s a downloaded noise for ring tone, or the beginning of another track). Sucks with earbuds in on a quiet track and then BAM-a loud track –or vice versa –totally makes me wanna throw this $500 cell!!

I have tried using the google player, the other music player, switching from cell hard drive to removable card—does not make any difference. It will play single normal tracks of course but they are not as long and does not have the time to skip ahead.

One of the main reasons I am using the phone is for the ability to skip through long tracks/mixes. I don’t know if it is an amaze issue, android issue, sd card format issue, music placement on card issue or what. I have tried many things and am willing to do whatever it takes if someone knows a fix. A diff music program/root? I have a stock cell now.

It will happen when I am using headphones or plugged into car audio .

I sure hope someone has come across this ! Thanks in advance for any response!
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
Anyone? I mean, have any of you tried to play an eBook mp3? Maybe a school lecture? A long DJ mix? ----and have it play all the way through? Like past 10 minutes?
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
Maybe you have shake to shuffle enabled.. otherwise my long EDC mixes play just fine I think
[HTC Amaze 4G] johnk1973:
Just for you I played a 1hr+ MP3 on a 32Gb class 10 card,

27 mins in, playing fine. Try copying your tracks to your internal memory or re-converting them from CD?
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
Thank you sooooooo much for a reply! And EDC type muze is exactly what I am talking about! I tried it again w/ a long mix and at 10 min 26 sec every time BAM-skips to nxt track or sound. I have headphones plugged in and cell is still on desk (no movement) so no shaky. Where do you have your files? on an sd card or phone memory? Are they listed in folders? Any details will help !!!! If yours is working then mine should!!! aaaaaaarrrgh!
[HTC Amaze 4G] rider222:
THANKS FOR TESTING FOR ME!!! yeah mine again --10min 27 sec switches? I too have a 32gb card. i have played them on the cell mem and sd card with same response. The tracks that i am referring to are actually not on a disc but only a file so cannot re-convert. They play as they shld everywhere but on cell. I dont know if there is a time out feature/limit? But i have not found one. I have taken them out of folders and put just on the drive main page to see if there is a change ( at s/o request) but there is no diff. Where do you store you mp3 files and how if I may ask? THANKS AGAIN for your time!!!!! This is so frustrating to me for an otherwise very pleasant phone!
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbaruch:
My files are on my SD, and I'm using the MIUI music app (awesome app)
