[Windows 8 General] J94w:
Is there a way to change the windows nt into windows 7?

I mean, when you try to install anything that requires a specific OS name, it wont install on Windows 8 because its names Windows NT.

So question is, is there a way to turn Windows NT into Windows 7? like by regedit?
[Windows 8 General] mrkdly:
I was having the same problem with Motorola Drivers not being valid and/or Windows8 not being recognized as a valid os? So I had go back and reinstall Windows 7???
[Windows 8 General] Whoareyou:
use compatability mode, right click the .exe file and click "Troubleshoot Compatability" then click "Troubleshoot" then "This program worked in earlier versions of Windows" then select Windows 7
[Windows 8 General] ShadowEO:
I had to browse the temporary files folder while the Motorola Driver installer was open so I could pull the files out and run the Installer in Compatibility mode, other than that, it worked fine.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
They are all Windows NT, its the version that differs, drivers are dead easy to change, software is harder, if compatibility mode doesn't fix it then you could hope that there are some ini files you can edit but that's unlikely nowadays.

Drivers just need a entry in the INF that says its a supported OS then further down the INF add a new entry pointing that new OS version to the same files as Win 7. With out an example its kind of hard to show you and it can vary between drivers but its easy enough.

whether it works or not is a different matter, a new OS version may have changed things the driver needs so caution is always recommended
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgoochio:
Can someone label my screen shot for each color in my network signal coverage? I'm color blind and I also don't know what each color is supposed to represent.. My girlfriend keeps telling me half the time she calls my phone doesn't ring and goes straight to voicemail and I am not getting any missed calls on my end. My house gets full bars 4G signal but I see it disconnecting and re-establishing a connection back to 4G every once in a while.. its really frustrating this is happening.

Heres the image:

Ok, it says your network is fine, but the losing and re-connecting, means, it's jumping, from LTE to 3G network modes...

Call Verizon, and ask, if there's a problem (known) in the area, you are living in...

If they say "No..." Then send the phone back, and get a replacement... See if that helped...

Sorry, I've got a GSM version... I'm not that firmiliar, with 4G networks :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgoochio:
I honestly dont think its a problem with 4g at my house i get a strong 3-4 bar signal it just drops to 0 signal and back to 4g for like 5-10 seconds.. though im missing calls which is really frustrating.. would flashing to 4.0.4 or updating my radios be the right step to try and remedy this symptom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beatsleigher:
Well, you could try it.... Download a 4.0.1/2 ROM from Google code (code.Google.com) Flash that, and see, if it helped.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Hi,

I recently purchased a new LG Optimus 3D which has no network branding or boot logos. It is running Android 2.2.2 with V10k firmware which I believe is "Europe Open". However, when I connect my phone to the computer to update I am told there is no updates available?

I feel a little bit upset as I thought this was a good phone with the opportunity to upgrade to a newer version of Android but it seems that the phone can't.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you.
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
whats the imei number? you should check it if its the europe open or else.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Thank you for your reply.

I have the IMEI number, how do I check if that is a Europe Open phone or not?
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
i check it from here www.chalg.com. you can pm me the number, and i'll check it for u.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Thank you for your reply!

I just checked the website and translated it and I have found out that my phone isn't actually Europe Open but is from Meteor Ireland.

I wonder why they haven't released the update!
[LG Optimus 3D] abo_mara7:
You can download firmware from here:

http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=2

then flash it using kdz tool in development section.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Thanks for your reply! :)

I did read a guide and I followed it the best I could but the software just crashed when I tried. Then I found another LG tool which looked easier and this said the KDZ file was incorrect. Please could you help me to flash the device to Android 2.3.5? I'd really appreciate that!
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Guess you probably managed to upgrade it but here it is step by step..

Before we start i suppose you know about the ghost calls issue that OPTIMUS 3D gingerbread based roms have and you are sure you want to upgrade iy..

Step 1

download

V21a from here:

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP920/AESOML/v21d_00/V21D_00.kdz

or

V21d from here:

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP920/AESOML/v21d_00/V21D_00.kdz

Step 2

download this

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=887870&d=1328537753

Step 3

make sure you have installed your lg phone drivers before continuing to the next step

Step 4

unzip LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix.zip

you will find a filename Automatic Offline Procedure.vbs

run it

if everything runs ok it will take you to the upgrade tool if not it will probably show you a windows script host error

if that happens try running it manualy from folder

LG_KDZ_FW-Update_OfflineFix

KDZ_FW_UPD_EN

KDZ_FW_UPD.exe

as soon as KDZ_FW_UPD.exe select Type: 3qct and PhoneMode: Emergency

select your downloaded kdz file connect your phone and press

Launch software update

It will take some time to decompress the files but if everything is ok it will start.

You will see the progress with various messages the last message ends with 0

That should do the job.. :)
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
2 b honest, i think u should keep staying in froyo, until lg solved the ghostcall issue. i updated to gingerbread weeks ago, and messed up by the ghost calls.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Thank you for your replies!

I am starting to consider staying with Froyo as I do not want to miss calls or SMS. Particularly the SMS. That would be a very big problem for me to miss a SMS!

I am wondering as this is a Meteor handset and they haven't even released Android 2.3. If LG releases Android 4 for this phone, would I be able to flash it with a Europe Open KDZ just like I would for Android 2.3? Unless of course they officially release the update but I think that is unlikely considering they haven't released 2.3!

Is the ghost calls and sms a big problem with this phone and the Android 2.3 update?!

Cheers! :)
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
2.3 gingerbread is really a nice firmware, u can use the 3d button as the camera shutter button during the camera mod.

there is some new playlist in the music player for you to sort all the songs.

theres a 2d to 3d tool，u can use it to turn the softwares or games into 3d, but not every app works.(froyo can install this tool too, but i havent try it yet)

also 2.3.5 with a longer battery life.

not everything become better, u will get some laggs everyday, which wont happen in froyo for weeks without reboot.

then the ghost calls issue! this issue just can not acceptable! u dont know when or where it will happen. and while it happen, it ruin ur reputation. your boss, your friends and family ,they all considered u ignored their calls on purpose. ≥﹏≤

and the credit card company can not notify u every debit event via the message. it might cost u if someone created ur copy card ,or picked it.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
I really want to go for the Android 2.3 update for this phone by flashing the rom but I am nervous about the ghost call issue.

Is there anything I can do to see if I would be affected? Anything to do with the network or something? Sorry for my misunderstanding, I just am curious if theres a way around the matter.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Chances are you will be affected.. maybe you will not notice it but it will happen.

Reagarding ICS i guess LG is not gonna give it soon.

Froyo is ok BUT its too old.

There are also plenty of ROMS over here in XDA that you can try.

I am currently using:

Rom:ThiaizO3D 2.6.1 Prada Gingerbread + Real3D ICS look

Cpu:Overclocked 1.22 (Antutu Benchmark Score 6228)

[Motorola Droid X2] mdomino:
So I recently (3 months ago) complained enough to verizon to get them to swap my iPhone 4 for a DX2 because of an insurmountable number of dropped calls on the iDevice. Now they pressured me into choosing a phone on the spot and I picked the X2 without having too many options. Had I known of the locked bootloader I would have chosen a bit differently :P

So what I am wondering is how do you guys always have top of the line phones right after they come out? Is there some way I could get a Razr or Nexus S or Charge from Verizon for the subsidized price before hitting my contract renewal date?

I like my DX2 but would like something with a bit more power and lot more ICS.

Thanks for any advice!
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
Some people get really lucky and verizon gives them sweet upgrades if you complain to the right people. Some other people just pony up the good x-amount of money and buy a new phone. Hell, I'm thinking about putting up $300-$400 for a used Nexus. My X2s hardware is crapping out hard core and I'm not about to settle for another X2.
[Motorola Droid X2] mdomino:
I feel you on that one. I would kill for the Nexus S. I have the money but I'm having a ton of trouble justifying it as a poor college student. Watching that much leave my account at once would make me cry!
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
We're in the same boat man. I just ot a pretty good job and I've been looking at ways to build up my credit. Buying a new phone is the most pleasurable way of doing so without busting my bank account!
[Motorola Droid X2] BreatheALittle:
There are a couple of ways to try to get the top of the line phones as soon as they are released. There's always the "complain until you're upgraded" route, but very rarely will the carries provide the newest/top of the line phone as your replacement. If you time your contract right, your upgrade will fall during the times when phones are generally released. For example, I got my phone in June. My 1 1/2 year mark will fall on the month of December. Tons of phones are released prior to the holidays. Also, many people will manipulate family contracts and "swap" upgrades. Other than that, you could try to find it online at a discounted price (which will never be as low as the contract extension price) and just buy it off contract.

I just installed ICS Stunner 5.0 coming from 4.5 (with which i didnt have any problems at all). Current modem is LP6. Reflashed ROM, modem, twice by now, with no results. Internet connection works through WiFi but the mobile blue H and 3G doesnt work). Please help and suggestions!

Also my battery life is unbelievably low, using kernel abyss 4.0+ and already calibrated the battery and checked the wakelocks.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhisahara:
Try doing a clean install. Start from flashing the cf-repack LP1 through Mobile Odin keeping all the options in Everroot checked. Reboot and let that rom settle. Then reboot in recovery and then wipe cache and data and then flash ICS Stunner 5.0 and immediately after the LP6 modem (with rebooting) Then wipe cache and dalvik and data again and then reboot.

Hope this helps! Hit thanks if you want :D

Your APN is missing. Access Point Name (APN) are internet settings that are provided by your service provider, and are received as a configuration message. Call customer care, ask them to send you your internet settings.

You can check this yourself by Settings>More(wireless and networks)>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names.

Also, make sure 'Data enabled' is checked.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightfox11:
Or open google play and search for Apn Global App and it should give you the exact apn settins for your carrier .

Check you APN settings as suggested above. And also remember to select Use data while roaming. Many users reported that this option worked for them in Stunner.

BEST CUSTOM ROMS:

HTC Desire was a great phone at the time of launch. Now its outdated but the GREAT DEVS here on XDA have really worked hard and gave our Desires a new life. Really hats off to "ALL DEVS" on XDA. I've used many ROMS and here's my opinion:

Sense 3.0 ROM:

I've used this sense 3.0 ROM and quite stable and fast. I've used uptil v4.1. Now this ROM is quite updated and will be better than before for sure.

ROM

Sense 3.5 ROM:

This is unarguably the BEST 3.5 ROM for Desire. This is way too fast and stable and I'm quite surprised how perfectly our Desires can run Sense 3.5.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyteo:
I bought myself Arc S, it came loaded with .62 firmware. On my initial run, battery ran for about a day, later on for two or maybe even three days. Then I started to work in another country. As far as I remember, battery life was the same, even though the network was not (where I work now is 2G only, in my home country 3G). Then one day messed around with a Xperia S apps, did a stupid mistake and started to get force closes with launcher. I had to repair software.

Since the software reinstallation, my battery life degraded to less than a day without even touching it. Therefore I installed Battery Monitor Widget, to see, what is going on. I noticed, that battery drainage is about 70-110 ma in average, as far as I know, it should be much lower (under 30ma?). I have to say, that I tested this with .62, .42 firmware and it's all the same. When I turn phone to airplane mode, energy consumption lowers to under 5ma - which is normal i guess.

It began to bug me even more, as we bought small alarm clock with radio. I noticed, that when this alarm clock is on, despite from 2 other phones our room, my Arc S is the only phone, which makes this kind of searching-for-signal or calling speaker interference (noise coming out of speaker). My phone does that all the time, even in idle mode. This can be also heard when we have our TV on on. So, if I don't want to hear that, I have to unplug the alarm clock or put my phone into airplane, which sucks.

I asked a guy next building, if he has the same problems with Arc S, and he says that his phone can live up to 5 days with one charge (is connected to the same network provider), so I guess it is not network related?

I wonder, is there a possibility, my phone's radio is broken somehow? Or it was faulty, and firmware reinstall somehow broke it to the end? So that is draining battery all the time - looking for signal? Any way to fix this? Flashing different base bands did not help, tried that already...anybody knows a fix for this, apart from returning it to my provider - since I'm 4 months away from my country :(

Anybody heard for any similar problem with Arc S?

Thanks in advance! (if needed, I can also post battery usage screenshot, but I think it's not much of a help)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonicHawk:
That seems like the issue here if I'm understanding you correctly. If you don't have 3G service where you currently are, and you did not turn off 3G, your phone will constantly try and find a 3G signal.

Airplane mode fixing the issue makes this seem even more likely. Try disabling 3G and see if it helps.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyteo:
Problem is, that's what I did almost instantly when I came here, I set it to GSM only. One thing I noticed right now, when I check into About phone, under Mobile network type, my Arc S has: UNKNOWN, where my friends HTC says EDGE. Maybe here lies a problem? Why my phone can't detect network type?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lyteo:
Incredibly, I found the reason for my drainage and signal search. When I came into that country where I work now, my provider offered me to turn off data transfer (provider turns it off for me). Of course I did not want any unintended data transfer, so I turned it off by sending sms to service number. After I reinstalled software (that was my first reboot here), phone couldn't find network type for that reason, and was searching for it all the time. Yesterday I allowed data transfer by sms again, phone found EDGE network, can't hear any more noise on our alarm clock and battery drainage is about 4% per 8,5 hour. Excellent :)

I hope this helps anyone out there with drainage problems.
