[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Haloman800:
My uncle has the Droid 1, he lives in a different state and he wanted me to send him instructions on how to get the free wifi tethering. I typed up these instructions, Is this all he needs to do? :

--

1. Download Z4Root (I'd send him the APK)

2. Open it and click Perma-Root (tell him it takes a few minutes)

3. Download Superuser Permissions from Google Play (is it called Android Market still on the Droid 1?)

4. Open Superuser, let it do its thing (is this step necessary?)

5. Download Free WiFi Tether (attached APK)

6. Open, click the tethering icon, click "Allow" when superuser prompt pops up.

7. That's it! It will show up under "AndroidTether" on your computer's wifi connections.

To change the name or password-protect the WiFi, hit the Menu key and go into settings, "Change SSID" to change the name of the WiFi network, and tick "Enable WiFi Encryption" , then click "Change PassPhrase" to set a password.

To stop tethering, click the icon again, and again click "Allow" on the Superuser Permissions. This is the last time you'll have to do this, in the future it will allow it automatically.

Did I miss anything? Or is this fool-proof?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] vikasbn:
Use teamviewer

You are better off using teamviewer.

Send him the files that you'll need, and also the link to the teamviewer android app. Once he installs and runs it, you should be able to gain access to his phone and do the stuff for him. THat's much easier.

Well since my ICS "un"official update wasn't working I decided to flash back the original ROM and now the device is not recognized on either flashtool or PC companion. What can I do?! Desperate as I don't know what to do!!! :(

Are you able to get into service mode or fastboot?

For each take out the battery for ~5 seconds and then reinsert, then either hold

back key - service mode

menu key - fastboot

While inserting the usb lead.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FAdrums:
It does get into flash mode but then it's not recognized by the flash tool.

When I try to do the fastboot mode it shows the Sony Ericsson logo and then it appears the thing on the pic that I've posted.

If I try to flash it does this:

Have you tried re installing PC drivers...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FAdrums:
What do you mean? Sorry I'm really a noob! (Yes I shouldn't have done this without the skills)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
Hmmm I don't have my USB with me to try a few things so ill have to go off the top of my head, how did you downgrade? flashtool?

I beleive Omnius offers some repair options, I would take a look into that.

Are you using arc or arc s?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FAdrums:
Arc S

Yes I've been using FlashTool 0.7.0.0 and aparently it did the downgrade because now it appears the Sony Ericsson instead of the ICS Sony logo.

Recaping:

When I turn on the phone it shows the Sony Ericsson logo and then it appears the symbol that i've posted on the picture.

As soon as plug in the usb cable the phone enters into flashmode but it doesnt flash - it says:

"17/022/2012 21:22:53 - INFO - Selected arc s LT18e_2.3.4_TMN.ftf

I cannot put the phone on fastboot mode as it does the same as if I was turning it on.

I really dont know what to do next! Can it be bricked? Is it repairable? Should I got to the store for the warranty?

Omnius?

Thanks for the help guys!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
Check out omnius - see if it can detect your phone you have to sign up but its worth a shot.

http://www.omnius-server.com/

I haven't used flashtool before, so I can't really offer any guidance on it. However I believe the ICS update changed the partitions, have you tried reflashing ICS?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fakhrodn:
When you are going to downgrade to 2.3.4 you shouldn't un-check the last box.

If so, try flashing it again.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FAdrums:
Well in my despair I tried the oldie SE Update Service and it recognized my device and repair it! It's now working with the original firmware! :D

Now I think I'll leave the flashing and stuff for you PROFESSIONAL guys out there! :D

Thank youuuuuuu sooooo much for all your replies!!! THANK YOU! :cool:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
That's great to hear, glad your back up and running. I've had a few of them moments myself, when your heart just drops to see your favorite toy has lost its life!

Here's the link. Any hacks yet?
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
You could try and use this. I used this when I want to check out google videos. It has the same problem as what you're having.
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
How do I use it? Lol
[HTC Rezound] rglick64:
Tried OTA Rootkeeper with a Touchpad with Cyanogenmod 9. No go. Also tried renaming the Superuser.apk as suggested in another thread. Also no go. Hoping someone posts a modified .apk soon. This would be nice to have working.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Use supersu and disable root

It's in the market
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
Same thing I did on Xoom and Rezound and nothing :(
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
Nothing. Twc app must check some file somewhere
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Did you reboot?

Try renaming the su binary

It's in /system/bin and /system/bin

Or possibly rename busybox as well

I don't have the app

Edit: did you wipe data on the twc app? I'm pretty sure once it detects your rooted once it will prevent it until its wiped
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
Yes I did both. Did it work for you?
[HTC Rezound] rspong:
Simple, my 17 year old figured it out. Rename super user.apk, to anything else. Reboot. Wipe data in the twc app. Worked for me. All other root apps still work fine too.

Now, how does app know if I'm on my home network? Why not at my office on office wifi network? Yes,I have time warner internet, but what if I was on another provider, would the app still detect my TV cable box and how?
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
That's essentially what the application above does. I think the recommendation to wipe the app's data is what helped too.
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
I got the hacked apk from droid life. And I agree why can't I watch with wifi anywhere or my 4g??

[Acer Iconia A500] snickle:
I am running the lightspeed ics rom.

I have removed the standard browser and music player. I use Dolphin HD and PowerAmp.

Dolphin launches correctly for URLs, however I have BT keyboard that has shortcut keys. I can't get dolphin to launch for the browser button or poweramp for the music button.

I reinstall the base music player and browser, they launch from the buttons just fine.

Any ideas on where that relationship data is stored or how to change?

Neither the stock browser or music player show any default actions under Manage Apps.
[Acer Iconia A500] Bloodflame:
This is just a shot in the dark (haven't actually tried this myself) but try putting the apk's in system/app as Music.apk and Browser.apk respectively. Remember to set the permissions, reboot to recovery and clear cache + dalvik, and try your hotkeys again. No guarantees though. Might be worth doing a nand backup first.
[Acer Iconia A500] snickle:
Tried creating a symbolic link with the name Browser.apk. No go.

Tried copying the dolphin apk into /system/app and renaming and fixing permissions. No go.

Any other ideas?
[Acer Iconia A500] snickle:
I opened up the launcher (I use Nova) apk and it looks like the the action for the various shortcut buttons are hard coded in the default_workspace.xml. I may play around and see if I can modify that to use different methods.

Ok so I am running AOPK with Aeroevan's kernal with the camera patch installed (just so you know my set up). I wanted to try and just use the onscreen buttons and not the soft keys.

Got my Prime back from ASUS RMA today (Grapevine Facility) and I was super excited, only to find this:

Just f*cking great...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
Oh F*CK, that is really horrible. Sorry to see that that, hopefully this will work itself out. While your talking to them ask for some sort of compensation, mouse or something for your hassles.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BraveDemon:
Yeah and they won't even issue me and RMA number unless I send in pictures and wait 48 hours for them to review it.

F*ck Asus...

That's insane. My screen was cracked and the guy issued me one right away. Although its been sitting in limbo for over a week now

Asked for a Supervisor who couldn't do jack sh*t... I have to wait 48 hours for them to review the pics.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cozmo85:
Take it into an Asus store and see if they can swap it out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] safarigirl:
So sorry to see this. A quick tip: be sure to also take pictures of the shipping container (inside and out). If there is no damage (dents/cuts) it was most likely the factory. Some of these companies are quick to try to blame the shipping carrier. Granted UPS/FedEx throw around and drop boxes but you will usually see some sign of it on the exterior of the box.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gsmsosv:
I'm not at all surprised. I bet they'll claim you did it yourself. I just got mine back from Grapevine and they didn't even seat the LCD and back plate correctly. The right side has severe light bleed, rippling, and a large amount of play between the glass and the back plate. I'm debating just taking it apart and trying to fix it myself. We all know which would be faster...

Asus gets to join Apple on the long list of companies I'll never buy from.

Edit: AHAHAHA. Took it apart and fixed it myself. Dumbasses left one of those rubber dock plugs between the battery and the LCD. I am officially more competent than ASUS repair techs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] neo1738:
I videotaped the box before, during opening, and turning on tab for the first time making sure it worked and all fit and finish was appropriate. Honestly I'm convinced it's because I took as much precaution as possible that everything (knock on wood) turned out ok.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:

Sent from my tf9001 with XDA XD.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BraveDemon:
Asus did issue me an RMA #, and I sent out with their Fedex overnight shipping label back to their Grapevine Facility (great....).

Tracking # shows that was received at around 10 am on 4/20/2012, by the Grapevine facility (same person signed for it when I first sent it in for RMA).

Unlike my last RMA # which actually worked and showed the status updates immediately, the RMA # I have now isn't showing up. So much for hoping for a swift RMA process this time around...

I'm tempted to call in, but I'm guessing the CSR will give me the boilerplate "It takes a 5-7 business days for an update."
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kwazytazz:
then after 5-7 business days for an update, they'll give you the "you need to wait 10-14 business days before it can be escalated"

called in on the 11th or 12th business day, "sorry can't help you, you need to wait til after the 14th business days til we can give a rats ass about you"

Bro Hydrog3n is also AOKP based and moreover , i tried the camera update from westcrip's page and it didn't came to any use ....

Same problems there too just pinch zoom added in UI

Does the LED in camera works for you ?

And what about autofocus without macro mode on ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thracemerin:
The camera drivers for the SGS2 are proprietary which makes it more difficult for devs building from AOSP to get features working with the non-Touchwiz camera app, these issues exist in all AOSP based ROMs for the moment, I'm sure there are devs working on it but it may be quite a while before it works as well as it does on Samsung ROMs for obvious reasons. If you want flawless camera you are more likely to find it on Samsung stock at least in the short term.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
But my camera works just fine on cm9
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thracemerin:
Working and working without bugs are 2 different things, there are still issues with the CM9 camera, and since the OP wanted flawless, I wouldn't call it that at the moment.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexus2515:
Yeah he's absolutely correct...

I've wiped the camera data and video LED started working, but autofocus really needs fixture...

BTW- what is proprietary??

Hi all,

Sucks this has to be my first post but my galaxy tab p7500 is stuck in a boot logo loop and I have no idea how to fix it. I rooted my tablet and installed a custom rom and everything was working fine, I then decided I liked the original honeycomb 3.2 more so I proceeded to recover the backup that I had made before installing the custom rom. I cleared all data and the cache and ran the backup, it installed the backup and I rebooted, but now its suck on the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 logo. I can still access the recovery/download menu but dont know what to do, can someone help??

As far as I know its a bug using the ICS Keyboard app from the market. It certainly doesn't come up on my tablet, which is using the AOSP Android 4.0 keyboard. I don't recall it coming up using the stock HTC one either...

It comes up with any keyboard on the ICS Sense 3.6 leaks from my experience. I had it with the stock one and Swype.

I hates it. The only way I've found to get rid of it is to uninstall every other keyboard, including voice input (which might not be a problem for you)

It's also not a bug, it's a "feature." Sadly.
