Even I was told about 2.3.5 upgrade is available and was asked to visit service center to get this upgrade on my XE. To my surprise service center guy told me that no such update is available and they even do not have any information on that. I called up customer care from service center and asked that guy to talk to cust care rep... funny enough both the guys were fighting on call. This is pathetic for HTC
[HTC Sensation] Rengak05:
These customer care folks are idiots , they have now sent an apology mail stating there is no 2.3.5 update with sense 3.5 ,They said htc had made it available but stopped it as all are getting ICS,, and have no clue when ICS is hitting us? i have a flyer as well where i am expecting a Honeycomb update from 140 days till today.. so keep waiting for those ^&^&^ to respond.

[TG01 General] Spiden2099:
Hello everyone, Happy Monday

I have a TOSHIBA TG01 original service provider Telefonica Movistar Spain.

Windows 6.5 OS

I am currently living in Greece and tried to use a WIND GREECE sim card.

At first my phone asked for my PIN, then afterwords asked for a network unlock code. I made the mistake of guessing the code a couple of times.

I finally purchased a network unlock code, but the phone dose not give me the option to enter this code anymore after entering my PIN.

The Home Screen Displays: BLOCKED SIM

If I click on the network icon it asks my for NETWORK PUK, ( I DONT KNOW THIS CODE) what is this? I cant find information about this ether.

I tried to find several ways to get back the option to re-enter the code using the information I can find on internet and forums, but can not find a solution.

It seems other phones give the option at some point using Dialing Pad Codes, or thru some settings... but I cant find a list of Dialing Pad Codes specifically for Toshiba TG01 or any Toshiba phones.

Is there any simple solution to this problem?
[TG01 General] Spiden2099:
Steps I have tried.

1. Hard reset and soft rest... No success.

2. Hard reset and soft rest with sim card... No success.

3. Entering unlock code in Network PUK screen... No success.

4. Entering unlock code in a 0 reception area... No success.

5. Tried several different sim cards... No success.

This seems to be a internal block on the phone, is there anyway to reset this?:confused:
[TG01 General] Spiden2099:
personal discovery

1. I used Total Commander to explore my phone.

2. I downloaded identical SimLock files from this site from another person that had a unlocked Tg01 Movistar Spain.

3. Swapped the ones i had on my phone.

4. Realized the phone was unlocked, but was running really really slow. :D :confused: :mad:

5. I hardreset my phone, because it wasn't worth it and went back to my normal Blocked Sim state. :(

This to me means somewhere in those files was the key to my counter reset problem, since the phone didnt ask for anymore Network PUK code.:eek:

If someone could enlighten me as to what actually happened? :confused:

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] hell_lock:
download sdk manager and then apk tool from google webiste... after this use ADB to get those framework files on ur computer then simply go in apk tool and decompile them... after that you can make any changes u want in it... after fiddling wid it recompile it usin any tool u r comfortable wid n den push it in ur cell
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Millan.SIS:
A lot easier will be to use apk manager.

Visit here http://apkmultitool.com/

Go to download section and download apk manager

Don't download apk multi tool as I think it has some bugs.

Extract... there will be folders describing what they are for.

put you apk in (put_apk_for_modding) folder

*some what like that I don't remember the exact folder name

Run script.bat you will see a cmd window having options to compile decompile...

1st select project using 22 option

Then decompile with option 9

Go to project folder find your project do necessary modification and then compile using option 11

Remember The option numbers may differ so check.

*Before that you must have java jdk 1.6 installed

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] avocco:
Just wanted to know if anyone else had a problem with the S-pen scratching their screen. The tip on mine is very sharp and after looking at my screen in daylight, its got hundreds of scratches all over.

I've had loads of phones and have only ever managed to get 1 or 2 scratches on them, nothing like what I have now. Anyone else have this problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Billus:
If you have been to the beach or somewhere sandy, that could be a problem. Have sand or grains of dirt in your pocket is often the cause.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kanalcommander:
My S-Pen has neither a sharp nor a very hard tip. It's normal polymer. Maybe you have a thin layer of fat on your screen and the S-Pen is "scratching" that or like already posted you had sand in your pocket.

Gesendet von meinem GT-N7000 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] priyanv:
Definitely s-pen would not create scratches. Material used in the tip is lighter than material used in Corning glass. May small dust particles may have dragged along when you use s-pen. Whenever use S-pen...just wipe the screen once and use, doing so will avoid scratches.

Still if you feel that the culprit is your S-pen, take a 2000 grit sand paper (widely used for automobile polishing..never go with lower grit!) keep it on glass and roll the tip of the pen gently without high pressure for a minute. This will polish the tip and no more scratches.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
This is pretty common. I've seen many complaints about the screen getting scratched from the tip of S Pen picking up random bits of hard material such as sand etc.

This is why I bought a screen protector to arrive together with my Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeriz:
And then you get even more scratches because grit from sandpaper will stick to the polymer tip

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
I have no scratches on mine and I play draw something a lot on mine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] robertberma:
Never heard of this. You press to hard i think.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] letters_to_cleo:
The S-Pen can't scratch the screen UNLESS you exert an extreme force on it. (e,g, banging the tip to the screen all the time or exerting an excessive force in sliding it.)

I don't think Sammy would have developed this phablet with an accompanying S-Pen, if they know that the latter would just damage the phone in the long run.

Overall, in the end, it would be the user's S-Pen usage that matters.. if you just bang away using the S-Pen on the screen always, then overtime, I wouldn't be surprise at all if you get some minor scratches sooner or later.

It's entirely dependent on how the user cares or uncares (if there's a right word for that) in using the Note with the add-on S-PEN.

IMHO...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] emuX:
I've had a screen protector on my Note since day one. After 5 months I'm now about to fit my 2ND one as the film is covered in scratches and trying to see the screen in bright daylight is painful. I've hardly used my s-pen, and yet my protector is covered in scratches. In my case grit or something else abrasive on my finger is probably the culprit!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] robertberma:
You ever think maby the screen protector is softer than the glass itself? I have not one scratch.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] guyluvsgals:
Screen Protector though soft helps protect small scratches caused by dust and normal wear tear...i hv been using a protector ever since I started using touch screen phones
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Rayan:
It's not the Spen what's scratching your screen, the problem is dust particles that get in the way while using the spen!

I'm using an ugly bestskinsever screen protector just in case!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeriz:
Whats your point? Screen protectors are made of soft material almost anything can scratch it

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Rayan:
Obviously the point here is that its better to scratch a cheap and easy to replace screen protector than an expensive hard to replace glass screen!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rowee270:
I'm a pretty heavy user of the S-pen (especially after discovering the game Draw Something!) and never used a screen protector and don't have a scratch on my screen. However I did once notice all these s-pen markings on the screen and after the initial shock i realised it was simply the s-pen cutting through the oily fingerprints!

The s-pen is definitely not sharp to the touch and there is a slight retraction with some pressure. I can't imagine drawing with sand or small particles on it as you kinda feel it as you draw.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] senectus:
The plastic is softer than the glass, this should be possible.

What you might be finding is you have a build up of grease/oils on the screen and the spen is cutting through that.

Give your screen a good polish with a soft cloth, I bet they go away.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anakbali:
From my personal experience, I think the same pen (with a small particle of sand/dust) could make a scratch on the oleophobic coating (fine thin scratch) as in the case of my note. It won't be visible under quick inspection though, but enough bother me so I ended up putting a screen protector on it.

And no, my case is not just grease/oil coz I made a clean wipe before I examine it closely...

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] priyanv:
FYI 2000 grit sand paper is designed for not shedding any particles... That's why I mention the exact grit specification. These papers are also used for removing hair line scratches on the glass surfaces. And I also pointed that "gently" hope you read my post completely!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] .ili.music.ili.:
I had a scratch on mine. About an inch long. Almost surely from the pen (I had no screen protector). I sold it before I did more damage to it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aharmsworth:
In the days of my Palm Pilot, Visor, T3 I learned the hard way to get into the habit that every time I pulled out the stylus, I wiped the tip off on my finger.

There is quartz particles and similare dust around, and it gets onto the stylus and will scratch glass, but the habit of wiping the tip worked well on the soft palm-pilot screens and my screen is free of scratches after 4 months of heavy stylus use.

Once you get into the habit, you will start doing it automatically, won't notice you are doing it, but it will keep the screen in much better shape (no - no guarantees, just better shape than if you did not do it).

Now has anybody found a good 3rd party stylus with a pen in it yet?

Andrew
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hdragom:
I use the pen not too often, yet I use it to cut pictures or write something on pictures I have taken before I send them. Anyway I have no scratch, but always wipe the pen before using.

[LG Optimus Black] Kyrok:
Hi All,

I got problems getting gps fixes in Germany (Aachen)

In fact, i wont get any gps fix at all, i tried the app "gps status" but nothing happens.

i tried changing the pool servers in gps.conf to de.pool and europe.pool servers,

set near countries (be, nl, lu, fr) as secondary servers and nearly every gps fix thread i found in the last 2 weeks but still nothing works

second mysterius thing is that in my hometown (Duisburg, germany too) there is no problem with my gps connection and i got a fix in like 30seconds.

i dont know if that problem occurs because Aachen is really near to 2 countrie's frontiers but i really ran out of ideas what to try :/

no matter how hard i try to find something myself or edit the gps.conf my gps status keeps like this all the time (attachment)

please help me :/ (and excuse my bad english *blush*)
[LG Optimus Black] Pacos1:
1. Try "GPS test" from the market. This app will show you the satelites and their position. If after about 20 min. outdoor nothing is showed you have a hardware or rom-problem:mad:.

2. If a sat. is shown mybe you have wrong configuered firewall. I don´t remember the process which get the gps-position by the servers.

3. I had never problems with any server, all works fine for me, but with the app "fasterfix" you can change them and give an european a try.

Hope can help you.
[LG Optimus Black] Kyrok:
1. When im in a good position GPS test and GPS status occasionally see a satellite or two, but they disappear as fast as they appear :/

2. i dont use a firewall at all, i think.. is there a android standard firewall or something?^^

3. i tried fasterfix and some gps.conf tricks from xda, too

also i tried adding or changing different pool.ntp.org servers in my gps.conf

but nothing helps :/

the real funny thing is, that saturday and sunday i was in Duisburg and used GPS for Running and Cycling (Endomondo 30km~) and had nothing near a problem, no edge or something that could indicate gps problems, satfix in under 1 minute and stuff.

Now, back in Aachen, most gps using apps tell me there is even no gps available :/

the hardware and rom didnt changed at all, i really dont know why this mean little thing wont work :(

thanks for your reply btw! :)
[LG Optimus Black] Pacos1:
You should get a gps-fix with gps-test outdoor within 20-30min without an internet-access. Be patient, due a totally new allocation via gps without server-support can take a lot of time (sat-search, time-fixing …). Sats appear and disapper, this is normal during a totally new allocation. After this you can discard a hardware/ROM – problem.

If this work, you can search for the server-access issue to get a faster gps-fix.

P.S.: Android normally haven’t a firewall in stockROM and your attachment in your first post can’t be shown.
[LG Optimus Black] Kyrok:
The attachment was just a screenshot of GPS status showing no satellites, but trying.^^

so i will try to go out and let that little mean phone search the sky for satellites now^^
[LG Optimus Black] Kyrok:
humpf... no effect at all... :(
[LG Optimus Black] Pacos1:
Then I recommend to go back to stock-ROM (without root of course) an contact the LG support and send it back (don’t forget nandroid backup!). Maybe try it a last time with stock-ROM 30 min outdoor before (to get sure).

It seem to be a hardware defect. The phone don’t get enough signal strength (maybe antenna contact).

Good luck!

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] davevi:
I wanted to share a couple of quick tips for Galaxy Tab owners...

How To Get a Case for $5

I got a case for my Tab 7.7 for under $5. Here in Asia there are tons of small notebooks for writing notes at work, university -- and they all are re-fillable which means the covers come off. I found the stationary store's row of notebooks that were just big enough to fit the Tab and looked for a cover I like. I found a nice black leather cover that fits the Tab perfectly. When I travel I slip it into the cover and I'm done.

How To Protect The Back of the Tab for $1.50 (and make it more usable!)

ALSO, on another geek tip to cheaply protect my Tab while using it. I found the back cover on my tablet was already scratching up so I spent $1.50 to buy tiny clear plastic feet, flat and sticky on one side and round on the other, and put four of them on the back. You would not believe how handy this is. It never slides around, sits perfectly on the table and never moves while I am typing or even turning it on or off (with one hand!). Purists might hate this idea because it adds a tiny bit of width in four tiny tiny tiny locations on the back of the tablet, but for me it's totally worth it and I wouldn't use the Tab without it.

You can find these small sticky plastic feet in any hardware or home store and most grocery stores in the US. The smaller the feet, the better. I put one on each corner on the plastic part of the case (where it scratches easily).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
Ok, but why not spend $30 and get a real case? You already dropped $600 for a tablet, so why skimp on the protection?
[HTC One S] ccart:
Complete noob here so maybe I've missed something glaringly obvious, but how do you make a video call with the one s? I can't find any option for it and a google search only brings up ways to do it using an app or skype. My video call time comes out of my monthly calling minutes so when I'm travelling it makes sense to use it rather than skype as I have a capped data allowance and more minutes than I need.

Thanks
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
when you are calling someone, check options... is there any option for video call?
[HTC One S] ccart:
Nope, nothing there to initiate a video call. And then when in call I cannot find any option to turn on the camera for a video call. I've looked and looked (before and during a call) but I can't find any option to do so.
[HTC One S] ccart:
Ok I emailed HTC and asked and their response was:

I’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing difficulties with making a video call.

I believe that the reason for this is because the phone does not make video calls via the normal phone function. It makes video calls using 3rd party software e.G. Skype etc. But as we do not support 3rd party software I would be unable to help you set this up. I apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Bit of a disappointment personally, but I suppose video calling isn't very popular so most people won't care. Still, was it really that difficult to add a video calling option/function?
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
But if your phone did support it, and not through a 3rd party app using internet, The receiver would also have to have the same set up right ?

And video calling isnt that popular.. Can you not speak with your provider and see if they can change the video call allowance into internet allowance instead ? Then you could use a 3rd party app like skype... Much more popular
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
LOL! Making phone with 2nd camera and not even bothering to add software option for video call? HAHHA Thats just lame! But I guess its for most "android" phones.
