Has anyone tried the .zip to disable Sweep2Wake? If so....does it work?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ramontomzer:
Thx for the clarification. I'm about to do it. Faux123, also wanted to say thx because used your kernels for the atrix 4g. Keep up the good work and thx to everyone for the replies!

Just an update, kernel finally installed. Runs perfectly so far! Thx!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mohamed_moscow:
hi, i tried this kernel holics 0.7. but it reboots after the bootanimation.

do someone have the same problem? and can some help me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] envygreen:
I'm sure it's me doing something incorrectly, but I've had no luck with the s-on version of this kernel. I'm back in bootloop hell for the second time and about to have to flash the RUU so that I can stop bootlooping, then try to flash recovery and restore my backup.

What I did:

downloaded the s-on bat file zip, decompressed, connected phone via usb, ran the bat.

All the adb file push gave read only errors and failed, but the boot image got copied over. rebooted and started bootlooping. tried clearing cache and dalvik, but no luck.

booted into recovery, flashed recovery. still looping.

pushed original boot and cleared dalvik/cache, still looping.

I know life would be easier if I'd do the wire trick and get s-off, but I haven't yet. All I really want is an efficient kernel and this looks fantastic, but I'm about ready to go back to stock rooted and say forget it unless someone can maybe tell me what really obvious step I'm missing?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
boot into recovery mount system then double click the bat. file
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] envygreen:
Thanks jerrycoffman45!

Not only did that work, it makes perfect sense in hindsight. Appreciate the tip and looking forward to test driving this kernel.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Blac Caesar:
Curious, as you can see from my signature.. I'm running your v005 kernel, with Virtuous Inquisition ROM. I've tried to flash v007 to it, but I can't seem to get it to stick :banghead:. Everything works but Wifi, no boot loops or anything. I'm beginning to come to the conclusion that v007 isn't compatible with the ROM I'm using.. my question is, am I doing something wrong or does it just not work with Virtuous? I'm S-On and I know I have to flash through bootloader.. using fastboot flash boot boot.img.. I flashed v005 again, so I could post using Wifi :P. Any help would be great, thanks in advance!

Alright never mind lol. I figured it out.. I saw the post a couple pages back about mounting the system n flashing again, tried it and it worked like a charm! Thanks anyway people :)

Sound issue

Flashed this ROM and noticing ringtones were not working. Reflashed De-Sensed 1.5 and no problems so immediately flashed this kernel. Now I have no ringtones. Phone will vibrate once and that will be it. Settings>Sound>Phone Ringtone plays everything fine. Wi-fi works fine. As of right now, I have found no other problems.

Any suggestions?

Edit: Think I may have found the problem...stopped Call Control and phone worked normally. It appears the "remove partial ring" does not work well with this kernel. Problem solved!

Sorry for the posts! :)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fyrewall:
I tried a new ROM and it was bad so I went back to Wolf's Xperia ROM and it installed perfectly.

However Facebook happened to be installed already, but my app list in Android Market/Play Store didn't show anything. So when I try to update it, it says:"Your order is processing, your item will be available in a few minutes" but it never becomes available.

Then I went into a file explorer and manually deleted the Facebook app from System/App and anything related to it. I tried installing from the store again but the same message popped up.

So any help?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rares1235:
why don't you use Titanium Backup ? it saves the app + data of the app, and after you flash a ROM you just have to install titanium and restore the apps ;)

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Tim S.:
My nephew tried to root his A100 and somehow ending up where now all he gets is the "recovery verified failed-spin forever" message. I have done some research on this forum and others and I am seeing some updates and such to put on the SD card to try and reboot the tablet to its factory settings. My problem is this-how do I access the SD card if the tablet won't boot? When I connect the USB to my laptop it doesnt recognize the mount(or whatever you call it) so I am unable to read or transfer files to the SD card.

I am using a blank SD card since he didnt have an external card of his own. So I guess my question is this-is there any way to read the SD card via USB that I am missing, or do I have to place the files from my laptop to the SD card directly, and then replace the SD card in his tablet(I hope this all makes sense!) Also, when it says to put the update.zip on the SD card, it is the whole zip file or the folder within?

Thanks so much for your patience. Im trying to save my nephews rear end because his mom is pretty mad he screwed up a new tablet that she spent good money for.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
Was he running ICS or HC? Is he able to boot into recovery (most likely not, but that is needed to flash the ICS update)? See if he can remember what he did. You could place the sd card in a card reader and send the file directly to it. Yes, you place the entire zip file on the sd card (do not extract it).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] raphsabb:
Ask him which thread/method he tried to use. That should help figure out wat he was messing around with in the first place
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Tim S.:
Ok thank you guys very much. I will call him tomorrow and find out what he did(or tried to do). Appreciate your help.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Tim S.:
Ok...so he's not sure exactly what he did because he is saying his friend did it haha. I asked him to call his friend, but the friend was a kid he met at the skatepark and he doesnt know where he lives...hmmm... anyhoo, where does that leave me?

I put the zip file on my SD card from my phone and put it into the tablet, did the power on/volume up trick and got the same "spin forever" message. If anyone can walk me through another process I am open to putting in the time.

My next move(or last one) would be to call Acer and plead my nephew's case and hope they would honor the warranty(but then I would have to lend my nephew the money to ship the tablet back and forth haha because his mom won't pay for it!)

Again, thank you so much.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
Did you try resetting it? This may be quite crazy but, you could try unlocking the bootloader, flashing a recovery, then flashing a rom.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] tomlogan1:
Sometimes people rename the file and add an extra "zip" and that gives the error you describe. Take the file onto your computer (I am using Windows, and do not know Linux) right click and rename the file "update". Do not add zip.

Try that.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ptesmoke:
or they tried the acer recovery app from the market and borked the stock recovery. if thats the case youll have to find the thread crossix has the original files on and follow his instructions.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
That could be the issue, but the method crossix gave to fix it requires it to be done through the terminal (so the device needs to be booted up for it to be done).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Tim S.:
The zip file is named correctly(not with an additional .zip)..When you say to flash, I'm not sure what that means. Does that mean putting the files on the SD card through my computer? Also, yes, I did try resetting it and same result. I have submitted a service ticket to Acer waiting to hear back. Thanks for all your input, sorry to be such a noob..
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Theonew:
No. To flash the file, you just need to place it on your external sd card, then boot into recovery (it seems like your's is corrupted though).
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Tim S.:
I ended up sending the Tablet in for service. Fingers crossed that will fix it free of charge under the warranty! Thanks again for everyone's help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kurberos:
Wow, this phone has issues or do i just have bad luck? Im on my 2nd replacement from verizon.... all the phones they sent me had really terrible purple tints on the screen as well as constant 4g drops. The reason im trying to replace my first phone is because it drops 4g as well. I spoke with tier 2 support today and he said that there will be an update to fix this issue. Im having difficulty believing this because each GNex is running on the same exact software and only some of the phones are having this issue. If it was truly a software issue wouldnt it be much more widespread? I dont quite understand this. Does any1 here have a Gnex that has functional 4g? Do I have the ****tiest luck or something? Does any1 actually believe that this update will fix the 4g issue?

Well my headphones finally broke after 4 years, I love it and it's time for me to get a new pair

Can someone suggest a good but a reasonable one at a decent price.

Looking for noise cancelling and black

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] PC Jona:
the ones that came with the sensation are really good imo

and i have/had the bose in ear and around ear, ibeats and Solo HD's

there really cheap too on like ebay. maybe 15 bucks, some are cheaper, like 5 or 6.

oh you want noise canceling lol..

id say the new bose around ear are good... but i'd look into other brands like Koss, Sennheiser, Audio Technica and Klipsh.

Never had any of them but I hear they are really good brands
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Thanks, but all of those are pretty pricey :p
[HTC Sensation] PC Jona:
Yea they are. I mean, if you want bang for buck you can look at the Sennheiser HD Series. They go for pretty cheap on ebay.

I really love the Bose AE2's tho... Amazing sound and I can never hear anything around me lol
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll see what I can do

The bose ones look nice
[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
They're not noise cancelling but the sennheisser HD-25 mkII are probably the best sound quality I've experienced from headphones.

They are what most sound engineers and DJs use, so they are designed to cut out a large amount of external sound - I have no problem listening on planes, busses etc.

Cheaper than Bose too.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-II-Closed-Headphone-headband/dp/B000TDZOXG

EDIT: you can pick them up for around £130.00 on ebay
[HTC Sensation] thedarkmunk:
I'd recommend the Sony MDR NC33, they are in ear noise cancelling headphones and you can pick them up online for between £50-60.

You could always try the Sony MDR NC7 which are considerably cheaper at around £20-30 but are over ear.

Out of the 2 i would pick the MDR NC33's because they give a comfortable fit and are awesome in general, plus they're Sony so they are well made and have a wicked sound quality.

I don't think you can get mobile noise cancelling headphones, i know you can get noise cancelling bluetooth headsets but not as headphones, i don't think so anyway. However, if you're looking for a quality pair of mobile in ear headphones with good sound quality, and well, noise isolation and not noise cancellation, i'd try the Bose MIE2i, they go for around £90 online.

Oh wait, i've found a noise cancelling pair with an inline mic, they are the AKG K390, they are for £73.26 on Amazon.

But yeah, i'd still recommend the Sony MDR NC33 if you intend on using them solely for music, or the Bose if you want a mic.

Hope this helps :D
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:

[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I got mine for $85 bux, well the V-Moda Crossfades LP (originals). If you are looking for a bit cheaper headphones, I can wholeheartedly recommend the SOL Republic Tracks. About 100 bux at Best Buy. Try them out and see if they seem good or not.

I have both the V-Moda Crossfades LPs and Sol Republic Tracks HD (HD is the highest model-also bought for $85 bux). And both are on par with clarity but the bass is there when needed. But the Sol Republic are a bit more on the bass-y side, but not obnoxious. lol

However if you are looking for cheaper than that, go with the Koss Porta Pro. Its bit retro, but its and awesome headset for clarity. (retail is about $35 bux). Not bassy as the beats, but they are moderate in bass but it's just clear as heck! Mine broke after years of use lol. I am talking about a good 12 years or so. :)

Head-fi.org is your friend. I got a pair of Superlux 668b's that I love for only $40. Also Koss ksc75's are the best bang for your buck around. Same drivers as the portapros and only $15. The main issue is neither are active noise canceling or even have good passive noise isolation but gosh do the 668b's sound great. I use them as studio headphones when I play guitar and they are perfectly balanced though I expect a basshead will have to use an eq to be happy.

[HTC Sensation] chobie:
Try the Sennheiser 238's if you don't need a built-in mic.
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
I know this is an oldish thread now, but for anyone else reading this, listen to the people referencing Head Fi forums.

Beats are ****. SOLs are ****. Any of the other mainstream artist-backed headphones are ****. Noise cancelling is **** (only approved if you really just want the headphones primarily for the noise cancelling-if sound quality is your priority, noise cancelling is out). There are a lot of great budget headphones, like those mentioned by other Head Fi people, and to add another one the Creative Aurvana Lives! are pretty decent too.
[HTC Sensation] sunilkumar.maharana:
sony or phillips or zebronics would be best look out in flipkart.com.. its cheap n best:o
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Each are entitled to their opinion and I can attest that SOL Republic Tracks HD and AMPs HDs are not crap. They are not the best bang for the buck, but they are decent cans. No I am not an audiophile and don't claim to be. I just like clear sounding tracks with some bass, which the SOL tracks provide. But each ear is different and I am aware of that.

Some look for clarity, some look for the whole package. There are various degrees in which people prefer their sounds. Case in point, look at how many ROMS there are for our phones!

So your best bet is just test out the headphones somewhere and access the cans yourself. If you don't like SOLs, fine, move on, but I won't pan it just because it didn't suit me.
