The links aren't dead when I check them. If the links didn't help you out. Then google "Sph d700 SW upgrade tool" Its a utility that automatically flashes phone back to stock EB13. Just put the phone into download mode, by holding. "1" button on keyboard and hold power and plug in the pc. Follow the on screen instructions. If you can't find it PM me and ill upload it to 4shared for you to download.
[Epic 4G General] tinslwc:
I am by no means an expert but... If you are coming from an MTD ROM, you have to use the victory.pit file to repartition the NAND back to BML. To my knowledge, there is no way to do this from CWM (is the recovery partition rewritten when repartitioning?). If that executable linked at the end of the post can reproduce the partitioning that Odin does, then yes, but you still must have the windows drivers, a good USB cable and be plugged into a good USB port. At that point, why not use Odin.
[Epic 4G General] AnDrOpErZ:
You are indeed correct. The SW upgrade is the linked .exe for inexperienced user. Not everyone knows how to use Odin. Yes it may be simple to us but a pain to others. Im pretty sure if people are flashing roms, the samsung drivers should already be installed on there computer. The sw upgrade comes with the DOWNLOAD MODE Driver, So that when you plug the phone into the computer whilst in download the drivers are automatically installed. Within a couple of clicks you are back to stock EB13. From there you can re-root using the one click and do Nandroid Restore.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
There is already a guide for this
[Epic 4G General] AnDrOpErZ:
There are but there all explained in different ways. This is the easy way to explain the method above. Just download and follow the instructions. Alot of people are using odin. And alot of people are struggling when using it because of the lack of knowledge. So Im just putting this method back out there to remind users that this is also possible if you do not understand odin.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I agree with this but 90% of people here are on MTD and will brick by doing this. Also, when recovery works you can just flash another ROM. Still a good guide.
[Epic 4G General] AnDrOpErZ:
Thanks, And i actually flash other ROMs if i end up with a brick. But the first time i flashed CM9 i missed a step and bricked, and it wouldnt let me flash another rom without the samsung screen hanging. So i used this utility to get back to stock, root, and restore backup. Great tool for people who still enjoy great ol' BML. Thanks for the compliment. By the way love your theming dude.

So I was using Odin to return to stock EL29 from agat's ICS ROM ... everything was successful in installing through ODIN but when the phone goes to boot it shows the Galaxy S II screen and then shuts off. I can still boot into download mode so I am going to try again with ODIN ... any other advice? Thanks!

[A] - No, I was not bricked. :-) tried a different Odin One Click restore and good to go. :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Glad to hear ya fixed it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
It can sometimes do this when you Odin but all you had to do was boot into Android recovery.....regular not cwm wipe data and reboot....if it was not a bad download it would have said something like e: file written and it would have booted fine

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RoperC:
Hi everyone,

I have used an older version of Hyperdroid over the past few month, which worked very well for me overall. Usually the battery managed to last a couple of days.

However, after I tried some different Android NAND Roms on my HD2 yesterday, I reinstalled the latest version of Hyperdroid (HyperDroid-CM7-Observant-Opossum v5.9.0) and noticed a dramatic increase in battery usage.

It drains about 10% in less than an hour without using it.

- WLAN off

- mobile data off

- Blutooth and GPS off

Androids battery use overview lists:

Display 35%

Cell-Standby - 33%

Idle 29%

Wi-Fi - 4%

There are barely any additional apps installed.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Install currentwidget and place a widget on your homescreen. Tell us the battery drain when the screen is off by setting the refresh interval to around 20, leaving the phone to settle in standby for a minute or so and unlocking it and giving the drain immediately displayed (don't wait for it to refresh again) and it should be around 4ma with everything but the phone function itself turned off. Try it in airplane mode as well, here it should be around 2ma. If you mean high drain with the screen on then you're just going to have to live with it unfortunately.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Yes i would definately check sleep drains. But if its when your phone is on, it may also be an update in the CPU governor settings. I would switch to conservative. Especially if you dont game a lot. You can also try changing your CPU voltage levels.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] triggaz:
What's your kernel and governor? Any OC? Maybe the kernel isn't allowing deep sleep.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] sofialoca:
did you do a clean install?did you wipe your battery stats?

if you post some more info about your device then we can help you even more.

i would try changing the governor and then battery calibration (you can find it on the market). i had this rom and if i remember correctly there were some issues with my battery too. i then got the 5.10.0 version and everything became normal again.

or you can upgrade to the latest version 6.0.0. i just installed it runs smooth as hell!!!

good luck!:D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pranaym1:
Even I'm using the same rom and the battery drains heavily only when using applications and playing games. But can anyone help me how to upgrade it to version 6.0 with detailed instructions.
[General Questions and Answers] Sanzenbacher:
Hey all. I'd simply like to introduce myself, and I noticed there wasn't a board dedicated to that. Anyway, I've been browsing through the boards and have found some very interesting threads. I want to thank everyone form the mods, admins, and other posters for making this a seemingly great community! I hope to become part of it. :)

Now, my current issue:

I was trying to root my phone, so I turned off phone, and turned on holding volume. Now it says "Firmware Update Step 1/2 UNPACKING" it has a grey bar (assuming for progress) and then says Update Failed with a Yellow Exclamation point. The lower four buttons are blinking non-stop.

No matter what I do I don't know how to restart my phone. Any insight? I've tried googling, but most of their methods aren't working. :? I've been told to take out the battery but I have no idea how on this phone.. ;x

Does anyone here know how to remove the battery? Would I have to like pry the phone apart? :|

Anyone here have insight about this phone/my predicament?

Thanks in advance for any and all insight.

:)
[HTC Rezound] pmgreen:
Where/how do you use Beats? I have music on the Rezound but the Music play can't find it.
[HTC Rezound] liqwidzero:
You have to use the stock music app. Have you seen the red outlined "b" pop up in the status bar? If so, Beats is on. You can disable it in the dropdown status bar.
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Without modding, Beats sound enhancer is only available in the stock HTC music app and the stock video player. Hit Menu soft key > Sound enhancer for music player, or More > Sound enhancer while playing a video. The music player will also put a toggle in your notifications bar.

Beats effects only work with the line out headphone jack, not the loudspeaker out.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
If you drop the music anywhere on the internal storage or SD card, it should be picked up by the music player. What format is you music in?
[HTC Rezound] pmgreen:
I tried .MP3 and "downloaded" music from GMusic. Is there a way to link "My library" to a specific folder?
[HTC Rezound] Po1soNNN:
i personally use double twist for this reason because it finds all the music that is in my itunes library and syncs it to my device.
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Google Music stores offline mp3 files in /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music. The files are named as integers without tags, so you are best off making copies, renaming and tagging (if you wish), and putting them on the external sd or another internal folder, e.g. /sdcard/My Music.

There is no way to scan specific folders in the stock HTC Music UI AFAIK. Easiest way to get it to detect files that don't show in the player's library is to make sure they are in a folder in /sdcard/ or the external sd, and reboot; should rescan for files and pick them up them. Perhaps someone else knows how to tweak the library, with an app or editing a file?

Frankly, I have broken my stock player at the moment from flashing ROMs and not wiping properly (ran out of Charmin Ultra lol ;)) Else I'd troubleshoot the problem more.

Either way, I find the HTC Music app lacking compared to PowerAmp (scans everything lightning fast), doubletwist (good for iTunes integration) and other offerings on the Play Store. I have simply done the Beats Audio mod to all sound output: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1587168 Then use whichever music player I want.
[HTC Rezound] pmgreen:
thanks Phantasm, how do you install the beats audio? Does the phone have to be rooted first?
[HTC Rezound] taptaptouch:
It comes stock with the phone
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Yes, you must be rooted and flash a custom recovery such as ClockworkMod or Amon Ra (most people would probably recommend Amon Ra for this particular device.) Then you flash the Beats audio zip file from your custom recovery.

Bear in mind that if you don't like the sound signature for whatever reason, you must reflash the ROM to restore the original sound processing.

Yes, but the Beats Audio sound effect is only in the stock music and video apps, not any others. This mod works on all audio output, e.g. streaming music. That is what I like about Sense 4.0: universal Beats sound effect. Wonder if 3.6 gets it.

Now, to bring this full circle, if you want to stay stock and not go through Unlocking and rooting, I wouldn't do all that for this Mod alone. Only if you intend on rooting and customizing your phone anyway. I'm sure plenty of people will suggest DSPManager or Volume+ or the EQ in PowerAmp, etc. Those options are great, customizable, and don't need root. I use all of those with and without the Mod on ROMs; it provides a better baseline sound IMHO.
[Xperia Arc General] Portospirate:

[General Questions and Answers] ninmeister:
Hmm, interesting.

If I had to guess (and I do, as it seems to not be a "standard" Android icon), I'd be willing to bet its Rotation (or orientation) lock. Meaning, that the phone will stay in whatever orientation its locked to (portrait or landscape) no matter what position the phone is put in.

Oh yes ! You are right !

Ahah, with another phone, there wasn't this icon.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] saturnspike:
I made a super stupid mistake yesterday. When I was getting all of the downloads together in preparation for flashing, I didn't notice that a link I'd followed lead me to the International forum, and now I've got a hard brick. I'm not quite sure why that's the case and I want to understand it more.

I've had a GTablet since day one so I'm familiar with the flashing process along with adb, but my experience yesterday has obviously lead me to want to be more cautious.

When I flashed the ROM from CWM it indicated that it was successful (and I'm sure from its point of view it was) but obviously the two phones have very different internals. I was under the impression that the ROM flash doesn't touch the bootloader, but obviously it did something that the phone didn't like. My best guess is that it screwed up the partition table for the emmc, but I'm concerned that that could irrevocably brick the phone. Does anyone have a technical explanation for what happened?

Second, while it was in CWM I may have had a chance of recovering, but once I rebooted it, it was over. No recovery, no download mode, no USB activity, just a brick. How can I be sure a future ROM flash is actually successful and the phone will still be able to boot properly? Is there a way of verifying other than rebooting and crossing your fingers? I don't really want to brick another one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Yeah... MAKE SURE THE ROM IS FOR YOUR DEVICE BEFORE YOU FLASH IT!
[HTC One X] TokyoGuy:
Hello everyone. I got my One X last week. The store said it's from Hong Kong though honestly I'm not sure given the severely limited amount of information inside the package. The system languages are English and two variants of Chinese however so presumably it is indeed the HK model.

Anyway, I've been waiting for this OTA upgrade that everyone's talking about and then read something that it's only available for 40X software versions. Mine is 1.26.708.2. Does anyone else have 708?

Also are these glitches found by people with other software versions:

1. Wifi Hotspot turns off randomly.

2. The SIM is frequently "lost" and either requires complete reboot or else the machine will issue a message that it's "Preparing SIM" for a minute.

3. The music player will stop for a second and then continue while playing (this I've head from other users).

4. The screen will turn back on after you turn it off. It's almost immediate.
[HTC One X] Tiersten:
708 is the number for a branded version specific to HK. 401 = European generic.

All 1.26 versions are roughly the same but branding and bundled applications will differ as each operator will do it different.
[HTC One X] TokyoGuy:
Oh is that for all Android phones, for all HTC phones, or just this one in particular? Also there is no carrier branding on the phone, just the HTC logo. Or is it such that only generic European models are truly unbranded?

Also, is it true that the current OTA update is only for the European models and thus applying it to my phone either won't work or will brick it?

Thanks.
[HTC One X] Tiersten:
It is how HTC do it. The third number is specific to that model though. 708 will mean something else for another HTC phone.

Other manufacturers will signify different branded versions in some other fashion.

If you've got ADB then run "adb shell getprop ro.cid" to get the CID which identifies what branding it has.

No. There are generic Asian/HK and other versions as well. The generic European version is popular because it is in English and so are the majority of the users of this forum.

You should only apply OTA updates that are specific to your version.
[HTC One X] samuelong87:
If you are interested to find out the origin of your phone, you can do so at the China HTC website. (try Google translating if you cant read chinese). Not sure why their site has the IMEI checker.

click on the online CSO chat during operating hours and you can key in ur IMEI and serial no. It should show where ur phone is from :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surrealjam:
I am one of the many having the battery charging issue - won't charge past 85%... As I am using NottachTrix4G 1.3.1 (a Motorola-based ROM) with the standard Kernel I can't see what might be causing the trouble.

The only thing I can think which is not standard relating to this is that NottachTrix4G has the 1% battery mod.

So, the question is, does anyone know if it is possible to revert to completely stock Motorola battery drivers, and remove this modification? I would prefer to be stuck with 10% increments if that might be causing issues.

Many thanks

James
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJPollard:
Unless I'm mistaken, the 1% battery is strictly a display modification. Nothing was changed in regards to how the battery itself is monitored and handled by the system. At least, that's my understanding based on my (admittedly minor) work in theme creation and modification. As such, reversing this wouldn't really do anything other than mask the actual problem. (Someone please correct me on this if I'm mistaken.)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeljko1234:
surrealjam, search the forum. Same question asked many times. Solution is simple but not so permanent.

Charge your phone with charger to 4200mV, leave charger connected, turn phone off, remove battery (charger is still connected!), wait for ?, put battery back, you'll see about 5%, charge battery for about 1h, turn phone on, disconnect charger.

You may clear battery stats from CWM.

If you go to the other forums under Xperia Arc General and go to the sticky posts at the top.

I was running the Xperia Launcher with its nice animated weather widget when this happened :

It seems like the wallpaper I chose and the weather widget decided to match each other in style. It looks gorgeous (at least, to me) and it made me think of a great widget/wallpaper combinaton that could be explored : imagine a animated weather widget app that would change your wallpaper according to the weather, in order to have them both matching in style. The result would be a still wallpaper image that would be only animated in the widget's frame. Actually, there could be a all set of widgets like that...

I know there are ways to achieve something similar already through several apps or automated tools but the only way to make it look good in my opinion is to have the animated weather widget being based on the wallpaper image itself, not just something "kind of" similar.

What do you guys think ?
[Android Themes] allofusjw:
beautiful widgets allows you to use any wallpaper you want and overlays it with animated current conditions to make it a live wallpaper. The background wallpaper stays the same but the effects that are added are excellent quality. so for example if it's cloudy your wallpaper will have clouds moving across the top of your screen.... If it's foggy then the entire wallpaper is covered in a moving misty fog.... If it's raining there are clouds moving across the screen with rain falling from them and water droplets appearing on your screen. and to be clear, the weather conditions and animations are constant. It's not a simple "opening effect" as I've seen on some apps.
