[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Perhaps a complete data wipe? I think that will clear it, but it will erase EVERYTHING on your internal sdcard.

First, connect to your PC and copy any files from internal storage you want to save. You should be able to do this without unlocking the screen.

Second, shutdown, then hold Vol-Up & Power together until you feel the vibrate. As soon as you feel the vibrate, let go of power, but keep holding the Vol-Up and quickly flick the rotation lock back and forth a couple of times.

If your fast enough, you'll see some white text saying it's wiping data.

I can't remember if it continues to boot after this. If it doesn't just turn it off and back on. It should walk you through the initial setup wizard.

Important Note: if you're on a stock ROM and had renamed phone.apk and telephonyprovider.apk, this prodcedure may (probably will) cause a bootloop. If you have CWM recovery installed, then there's no problem, just reinstall your ROM if a bootloop occurs.

Plug in a USB keyboard and boot up with volume down and power button.

When you see the booting recovery kernal in small letters in the upper left corner start tapping the home key on the keyboard.

you will then be able to navigate a menu to clear all user info etc....

I am confused. Which is faster - HTC One S on Snapdragon S4 or it's big bro, HTC one x? Can someone explain
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
The HTC One S is dual core device, the HTC One X is quad core, so the One X should be faster

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0586:
Thanks,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmAN00bie:
Sorry, but you can't just assume that because the Tegra 3 has more cores, it is faster. In most cases, the S4 > Tegra 3 CPU-wise, but the Tegra 3 > S4 GPU-wise.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
I said SHOULD be faster, oh and in my opinion the GPUs are pretty similar

I have tried both of them, the One X feels faster and plays games better

Sent from my ice cream powered Nexus S
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmAN00bie:
Well, your post heavily implied that One X is faster than the One S because it has a quad core and that was your only reason. Also, your reply made no sense. You say the GPUs "are pretty similar" then say that the One X "plays games better."
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
Well because the One X has more processor power to mess around with if required

One thing I will say which I HATE is they both require a MicroSIM -.-

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I Am Marino:
S4 by far is a more efficient processor than Tegra 3
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sherrypizza:
HTC One X has a higher resolution screen, which means it has a tougher job to do when pushing those extra polygons around and is probably why its scoring lower in terms of processing power, plus extra resolution of the One X makes it a slightly unfair to compare it with One S.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firmbiz94:
From what I've seen and read they are very comparable in terms of performance ..supposedly the s4 is a little more responsive in day to day operations like browsing etc..but the tegra has aa slight edge in gpu performance ..the krait is built on a smaller 28 NM tech. Which sounds good to me
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmAN00bie:
The increase in resolution only taxes the GPU harder. The CPU in the One S still trounces the CPU in the Tegra 3, albeit not by much. In day to day usage, you won't notice the differences in speed.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sedariya11:
Hi guys i'm using razr and I am facing screen lock issues as when I put screen lock under settings> location & security> screen lock. It locks for only once and when you unlock it first time and check the second time it does not ask for the lock. So again I have to do all the settings to put lock and the same things happens that is only once and that's it. Any help would be much appreciated.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] reaperzero:
settings> location security>Security lock timer>when display off
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sedariya11:
I have done that also it does it at the first time only and not after that. When I do that it asks for the pattern/password when screen gets off at the first time only but after that setting gets changed to its default automatically. Every time I have to do it again manually after working it once. Which is no security at all.

root your phone

Install a custom ROM

Consider...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
Its done via DNS blocking. You'll need to go into network settings in TFP, long hold on your wifi connection and click modify network. Then you must click on 'Use Static IP'.

IP address Choose a static address, just keep the current value as it should automatically be filled in.

Gateway will also be router's address

Netmask should be 255.255.255.0

Now the most important change to make is on DNS 1 and on DNS 2 settings. Put the following DNS servers on TFP's DNS settings.

These servers are provided by http://www.adbarricade.com/ - dedicated to blocking ads

74.53.155.162

69.93.216.138

These servers are provided by http://www.fooldns.com/fooldns-community/english-version/ - dedicated to blocking ads, tracking cookies, maleware, ect. These are located outside of US, so it would be slower for some depending on your location.

87.118.111.215

81.174.67.134

There are provided by http://www.opendns.com - the fastest of the bunch. This is not for ad blocking specifically but it can block ads. (see below)

208.67.222.222

208.67.220.220

You'll need to register with OpenDNS, in settings go to web filtering and put in any domain you want to block. Only thing is that its limited to blocking 25 domains.

These domains should get rid of ads on most sites.

Great post. I've been using OpenDNS on my home network and devices for years.

Something I experienced when my laptop was set to use OpenDNS, similar to your guide, is the public library WiFi network didn't allow my custom DNS setting.

In order to get any service there, I had to set my laptop adapter's DNS setting back to Auto and it would work. Just a heads up on case someone is having trouble while out and about.

For gods sake people. I read the god damn op. I was just saying thanks for making this. I'm already taken care of because I'm unlocked but it is nice to see effort put towards people that are not. Don't ****ing assume.

This forum is going to **** on a daily basis because everyone has a stick up their ass.

All I said was I USE ADFREE BUT THANKS FOR MAKING THIS.

Edit: didn't mean to come off as such an a hole but it is frustrating when people assume you don't read the op just because you say thanks. I really love xda but I've found myself avoiding the general section because it is plauged with trolls. I really love flashing and modifying my devices and usually when I post it is to either say thanks or tell about my experiences but apparently some people have nothing better to do than try to flame people. Thanks to the op for providing a great option to unrooted people. Thanks to the devs that make xda as great as it is. Thanks to any members that have helped me when I needed it. Trolls please just go away you are ruining this amazing forum.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bait-Fish:
Either I'm overthinking this or there's one more piece to make this work seamlessly.

On my laptop, I keep a program running, OpenDNS Updater, so when my ISP changes my dynamic IP, it updates my OpenDNS account. Or, if I take it out somewhere to another WiFi, it updates my account and carries my settings to requests to OpenDNS from that new IP.

I haven't seen an app to do that for Android. If your ISP changes your IP or you go out and use your device on a different WiFi than home, where you probably first associated OpenDNS to, then you won't be using custom settings, only OpenDNS' default public profile. The system can't tell it's you elsewhere unless you tell it.

You can manually update IP addresses from the web interface but that's not easy to remember.

I didn't see an app that would update OpenDNS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ardito:
Can't see "content filering settings" section too. The only ones present are Security, Customization, Stats and Logs, Advanced Settings. Am I missing something?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] teh_lorax:
Uhhh, not sure how this could work when your IP is the same as the gateway. Was that a typo?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
Have you added a network yet? Under dashboard, click settings and click add this network. Under "your networks" click on your ip address for the filter settings.

Whoops, you're right, that shouldn't be.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ardito:
I think I've found the solution. From OpenDNS support forum:

"OpenDNS Use At Home:

If you plan on using OpenDNS at home and also plan on using our web content filtering services, please click the 'Get Started' link under 'Parental Controls' to create an account"

If you choose "Premium DNS" instead of "Parental Control" during the registration, the content filtering section is missing.

Now I have to open a support ticket for change that setting. After that, all should be fine.

Thank you for sharing this useful trick.

Ardito.

Hi everyone. This is probably my first post on the forum, but I have been a lurker for a little while now.

@yumms: Excellent Post. Good work and thanks for sharing this awesome technique and information.

I would like to point out, also, that you can edit your routers DNS server to one of the suggested DNS IPs yumms posted. If your router allows it, you to turn off automatically assigned DNS and enter in a different DNS IP address then what your ISP uses.

I do not know enough about all routers, but my Netgear WNR3500 has the DNS settings on the basic settings section. I suspect that most will have a similar setting; but, I can guess that modem/wireless router combo supplied by an ISP may not.

Doing this blocked ads for every device on my network, laptops, tablets, ipads, etc

My apologies if this is common knowledge and has been posted many times before.

At last, somebody else with the same problem.

I posted about this in the OrDroid thread but nobody replied, I've re-flashed all versions of OrDroid since 1.8.7 to 2.0.5 to see if there's any that don't have the same problem but they all have it.

I don't want to ditch OrDroid as It's my favourite ROM at the moment, but I use the VPN to listen to Pandora Radio when walking home from work, it's the main reason I pay for my VPN Account.

I've tried using titanium backup to restore working settings from other ROMs, but it hasn't worked, or maybe I'm restoring the wrong things, I'm not sure.

Thanks ...John...
