[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amulbaby:
This happened with me once and I cannot square down one solution but try these:

- HOLD THE BACK BUTTON A BIT LONGER, SAY ABOUT 5SECS MORE AFTER PLUGGING IN...

- SELECT "EXCLUDE USER DATA" BEFORE FLASHING (NOT RECOMMENDED THOUGH)

- INSTALL LATEST VERSION OF PC COMPANION AND RUN IT ONCE..LET IT INSTALL THE DRIVERS AUTOMATICALLY AND THEN TRY FLASHING YOUR FTF FILE...

- TRY THE LATEST VERSION OF FLASHTOOL

Hope something works :rolleyes:

Hi. I recently got MC3 ( Modern Combat 3: The Fallen) on my Tablet. I have a PS3 Wired controller called Power A. I want to use it to play the game but don't know what app to d/l to get it to work. Can anyone help me?
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] marc2040:
Click
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] Razor0217:
That program is for wireless. I have a Wired PS3 (Off brand call Power A)
[TouchPad Themes and Apps] marc2040:
Read the whole thread ;)

I did read the thread. A few times. Lol.. I will admit I am a NooB when it comes to this stuff. I'm gonna shoot out a guess an say It cant be done?

Wow. I posted under the wrong forum. I have a Acer Iconia Tab. Ooops. I told you I was a NooB. ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LosKhan:
I'm on ics vk rom. Currently on ki4 modem, have used lps modem previously. Which is the best (in terms of internet speed and battery performance) modem on tmobile? Which is the best on O2? I have read that nelp2 or bokg1 should be considered.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LosKhan:
Forgot to mention wi-fi reception is also imperative.

Can't answer your first question, but I don't think modem/baseband will affect WiFi reception.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kyndreth:
I was wonder if some one can conform if i pay full price for Nokia 900 can i get $50 unlimited pre paid plan or do you have to have lte data? I cant seem to find it posted any where and no luck with Google.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
Call at&t and ask them.
[Nokia Lumia 900] NFRCER:
ATT will know once you insert the sim. Any smartphone won't be able to get Unlimited internet. You'll only get minutes and texts. Internet will be a separate add-on
[Nokia Lumia 900] jimski:
LTE is not available for prepaid plans. So you will need a plan, but it won't be LTE

Sent from my Lumia 900 using Board Express
[Nokia Lumia 900] SuperSport:
You can always use StraightTalk.com

As mentioned above, you won't likely get LTE, but you will get Unlimited Talk, Text, Data. $45/mo. I don't get LTE at my location anyways, so it would work ok for me...
[Nokia Lumia 900] nanoera:
Straight Talk police their network and is not truly limited. If you use more than 100mb in a day, they will call you to remind. Try to stay under 100 MB a day, and 2GB a month and you'll be alright.

[Nokia Lumia 900] rtg293:
So far my Lumia is beast as a straight talk phone. $50 for unlimited talk, text, and 2gb/month data, but no LTE. I could be mistaken, but I don't believe any prepaid service is offering unlimited LTE atm?

If you aren't looking for LTE though, I would highly recommend Straight Talk. AT&T Coverage at a killer price considering you don't get data with GoPhones $50 plan.
[Nokia Lumia 900] harolds:
How did you activate you Lumia 900 with Straight Talk?
[Nokia Lumia 900] samansh:
So is it 3G?

Could you please run a speed test app and post the results here? And does MMS work?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kalex:
just plug in your microsim into Lumia, change APN to att.mvno and thats it. works good.
[Nokia Lumia 900] rtg293:
Took the words straight from my brain.

Yea its just 3G. MMS isn't working yet, but that really isn't an issue. If i've got pics or videos I need to receive I can still do that by just getting the message sent to my email. Here is a pic of my speed test results. 3.41 mb/s down and .99 mb/s up, heck I'll take that.
[Nokia Lumia 900] denpad2010:
did you buy the micro sim or bought a straight talk phone and then swap sim card? asking you cause i dd this a few moonths ago and worked,now i tried but nokia lumia 900 dont recognize the micro siim,i bought a samsung t528g and cutted te sim card and swap in lumia 900 but didnt wrk,call startight talk CS and they said i need a special sim card the one they sell for 15 dollars?
[Nokia Lumia 900] SiL3nTKiLL:
use straight talk...works the best. they have a discount for $45 a month if u look on slick deals
[Nokia Lumia 900] harolds:
I bought the sim card, and it worked.

[Nokia Lumia 900] mgateno:
I use my Lumia on the AT&T network with a prepaid SIM, but I'm pretty sure that the $50.00 unlimitted does not include a Data Plan. I purchase $25.00 for voice on the $2/day unlimitted voice/text and another $25.00 for Data which gives me 500MB.

So it DOES work on a prepaid SIM because I've done it. It also works on full 4G LTE which I tested in San Diego.
[Nokia Lumia 900] rtg293:
Nah, not as of yet. I'm sure the XDA gods will save us soon enough though.

Somebody feed the trololol...he's getting restless...
[Nokia Lumia 900] nicbet:
Did you have to put in anything special for APN? I'm on the 25$/month 250 minutes/unlimited text prepaid voice plan with the 25$ 1GB Data add-on, and when I swapped my regular SIM for a micro-SIM, plugged it into the Lumia, the data connection would not work at all... Had to revert back to regular SIM and use my old phone. AT&T reps told me "data does not work with prepaid on LTE devices"...
[Nokia Lumia 900] 21stNow:
I did the same thing that you did with a Galaxy Note and had the same results. Go in and add a new APN for wap.cingular. I now have cellular data, however, I do not get LTE speeds, only HSPA+.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiefx:
I'm having this problem where sometimes after I reboot my G2x (running HellFire Phoenix V2.1 with the kernel already included) it would start back up with the "Touch Android to begin" screen as if I just did a fresh install and then nearly all my applications would start Force Closing on me.

I'm not sure what is causing this. My applications that we're previously installed all force close when I try to open it, and the Play Store is back to Market. My saved Google account is erased as well. Any ideas? It's beginning to get very annoying to have to wipe my phone and reinstall everything all over again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Klathmon:
have you tried actually going in and wiping /data and /cache before re-flashing the rom to see if it helps? if not, try that.

if its only happening to you on that rom, try flashing another.

if none of this works for you, then use This tool.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiefx:
I always use the Nullifier application before installing the rom, yet I'm still having this weird problem. I'm going try that other wiping method and see how it goes. Thank you !
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Downloads of gapps/ROM might be at fault also. If wiping doesn't solve it for you then you should re-download them.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaiZ51:
I know it will obviously shorten battery life (by how much by the way?), but will it damage the CPU or the GPU of the phone?

I know that when overclocking a computer you have to be careful to not let the component get too hot, otherwise it could damage it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
probably is some harm. but if you ask my nexus s, that i bought in december, itll say that no harm has been done. all the time that it has spent from 1.4-1.6ghz, and still spends a lot of time there, has just made it want more :p

but really, every phone is different. some it might never harm, some it might harm right away. but ive have never heard of a nexus s that has actually been harmed from overclock. many phones cant overclock much, some can overclock a whole bunch(my phone), some cant even overclock. your phone will let you know when its been overclocked too much. and if it is too much, you can just overclock less/ and, btw, i still use my original battery, and get better battery life now than i did back when i just bought the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] GGrimm:
Today I recorded a concert for the first time with the microphone of our Galaxy R. ..

To say that the result in terms of image is spectacular, but the sound quality is terrible ...

I guess the problem would be solved by lowering the gain of the microphone, but I can't do it.

Anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vbz89:
Not true... Iphone mics record sound really well. I think it's to do with the design of the mic orifice. I've tested this with a few samsung phones and an iPhone.. And sadly, all our phone recordings sound bad..
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] akshatsourav:
yeah pictures r too not comparable with an iphone ..

:(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Yes u right iphone have better quality mic and also not mic but earpiece, display and camera is also better.

I have 4s and comparing it to other phone, nothing can beat it (i meant in hardware quality, ofcourse ios sucks)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] GGrimm:
And we have any solution? :(

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] akshatsourav:
i own it too dear...

yeah microphone,earpiece, and camera r too good....

actually camera is uncomparable...

but again what about the so hyped screen?

i cant feel the screen as superier...

pixel density is of no use as i dont use it for reading texts without zooming web pages...(much brighter screen of galaxy r n ofcourse bigeer)

n the low volume of external speakers and again its not worth it if u buyd it unlocked...

and about ur "ios suks" thing ,its got more quality apps than ours..

but it all depends on the taste of users...

u cant mod ios exept some springboard theames which personally i dont like !!

u cant sync contacts with facebook or gmail etc...

AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING-WHY TO WASTE SO MUCH MONEY ON A DEVICE WHICH IS NOT WORTH IT,U CAN GET THOSE THINGS IN HALF OF THAT PRICE..

:)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vbz89:
Totally agree with you!!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
> i said iphone is best in manner of hardware quality and build material

>yes u r right sgr screen is much brighter and bigger but iphone display have a very high pixel density and its a nice to have sharp display u can read small texts cleary

>i said ios sucks in manner of modding support

and i m also agree with u that u can buy this iphone config in half price.

If iPhone is the best in hardware quality , that means the SGR has a more easily crackable screen than the iPhone .

So if the iPhone has the best hardware , I will commit suicide .

[Android Software Development] orb360:
I'd like to get a list of the email addresses associated with all the online gtalk contacts. I'm using it to generate a pick list to launch a gtalk chat session with that person from my app.

private Cursor getGtalkEmails()
{
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();

Uri uri = ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI;

String[] projection = new String[] { ContactsContract.Data._ID,
ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_PRESENCE,
ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Im.PROTOCOL,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Im.DATA };

String selection = ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_PRESENCE+"!='0' and " + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + "='" + ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Im.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'";

String[] selectionArgs = null;
String sortOrder = ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME
+ " COLLATE LOCALIZED ASC";

return cr.query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs, sortOrder);

Unfortunately, this only returns a single contact... And I have 50 people online right now.

So I dumped the entire table and it looks like out of every contact on my phone, only one has a vnd.android.cursor.item/im entry. O_o

So is there an alternative query I could use to filter these out? I can't just use email, because a lot of my contacts have more than one email. If they do, it could pick the wrong one and when I fire the intent to launch a gtalk session it would open up the "add contact" dialog instead of the chat activity.

Thoughts?

Hey guys I was wondering, could I tether my ipad to my galaxy s2 (running cm9 nightlies) without paying for a tethering plan? I do have an unlimited data plan but I don't want to pay the extra just to allow tethering and lose unlimited data. Can I do this without AT&T catching wind and taking my unlimited data away?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nooomoto:
there's a chance they could. They have some way of detecting tethering to computers. I've been tethering for years with different devices and they haven't said anything to me, however its worth mentioning that I don't abuse my free tethering ability so I probably don't stand out as much.

SCREW ATT

You tell those punks that youll use your Data anyway you like(they wont do anything though). Its not like we dont pay for it already, yet they want you to pay twice for the same amount of data? I think not. When the Supreme court made it legal to Jailbreak/Root phones that meant we could do what we want to our phones because they are our property. Think of ATT Tethering ability like a 40$ app that you choose not to use. Instead you found a free one. ;)

Hope that makes sense to the choir.

[HTC One X] Tibler:
Hi there !

Pretty much all my problem lies in the title : is there a version of HTC Sync Manager that works on Mac computers for the One X ?

Everywhere the documentation seems to say yes ("[...] for PC and Mac", "download the .dmg file", etc.), but on the official site i can't find a link to the reffered .dmg file, neither it is on my phone, and when I ask the support where I can find the file mentionned, they answer me : "To use HTC Sync on Mac, please install Dualboot and Windows, then install HTC Sync Manager" :confused:

I managed to find a Mac version of the software somewhere on xda-developers for others version of HTC, but my phone still isn't recognized by the application.

So... anyone here managed to get that one working ? I know there exists other free (or not) applications that can do the same, but I kinda liked it on first sight on my PC. I tried SyncMate but even though my contacts were originally freshly updated it wanted to delete about 48 of my contacts and modify 20 others :eek:

Thanks in advance for your time !

Tibler
[HTC One X] dr-t:
yeah , I've got exact same problem , please someone help us quickly ...
[HTC One X] dawkinsmj:
I was going to look for HTC Sync for the MAC but will hold off for now, you could install Parallels Desktop then Windows 7 which allows you to run Windows 7 within the MAC OS no need for a Dual boot then. :)
[HTC One X] Tibler:
I don't think I would be able to access my OSX Address Book that way either.

I used to do it quite simply with my 'old' Sony Ericsson W995 and the iSync application. Finding out it couldn't work that way with my One X still makes me sad :(
[HTC One X] Lalami1990:
I'm having the exact same problem! :( I was an iPhone user since 2007 and always used iTunes to sync data. This is my first Android and I totally love it but its sad I can't get it to sync with my Mac. When I connected my One X to my Windows PC and set it to HTC Sync mode on the phone, the HTC Sync program begins to install but when I do it on my Mac, it says the device isn't recognised.

I am on the same boat too, used iphone for 4 years now decided to change to HTC. But looks like HTC is not quite Apple friendly. I have a macbook so no way i wana bootcamp window and sync from window.

[HTC One X] bluesdealer:
Uhm... yes. I left the world of clunky Windows operating systems running on craptastic generic machines, sloppily thrown together by shoddy manufacturers, many years ago and I have no plans of returning. Furthermore, the HTC One X will be my last HTC device until they learn how to properly support their products. Funny thing is, I said this back when I bought the 8925, only to find it had no display drivers, rendering its fancy GPU practically pointless.

These guys need to get a clue. We may not be the majority, when comparing OS platforms, but Mac users number well over 100 million and Apple is the largest manufacturer of personal computers on the planet. Samsung has Kies running on Mac, with a link neatly placed right beside the Windows version. I'll be ditching my One X in favor of a Galaxy S3. Good riddance, HTC.

Can I just walk into the AT&T store and get a swap (I have an account, but I didn't buy this phone from them). Also, I don't have a data plan. I have been going through Samsung for tmobiles stuff since I don't have an account, so if I must go through them then I can.
