[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lojak29:
Ive tried everything under the sun i know about the power and vol down until vibrate, then keep holding power down,Ive had samsung drivers on my pc for years, ive been into download mode on this device ad every other samsung phone I have owned 100 times over ive tried it all for the past 12 hours.. its hopeless even a jig wont fix it. The boot up has been wiped off the map the phone is junk junk junk!

All cause i tried a simple method that for some reason worked for others and ****ed me over !!

I hope people dont plan on using this binary count reset zip.. its INSTANT BRICK!!!

All i ca do is claim it on ins...

What gets me is why does everyone whom im assuming most are adults on here feel the need to laugh poke and talk **** at everyones mistakes..in which it wasnt my mistake, I just followed a thread on how to reset binary count for the note , BUT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A ZIP FILE ,CALLED HOW TO FLUSH YOUR 600$ PHONE DOWN THE TOILET IN 3 SECONDS !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Don57:
if it's any consolation, i hard bricked my phone the first time i tried messing around with flashing it; i had a brain fart and flashed something that was for a different model of the same phone. i feel your frustration at your phone, the forums, and everything else. it sucks.

my story had a happy ending, though, and if your phone still boots - even if only to a black screen - then you are in better shape than i was.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1tontomato:
Just to be sure, download mode is hold the power and Vol down until you feel a vibration and let go of power, not the other way around like you have written.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omnimanx1:
This happened to me when I had my Infuse. I too had good drivers etc. I too had a black screen etc. Although my screen was black I was indeed in download mode.. What resolved my issue was using a different PC. It is worth a shot to save a $600 phone I think

.. Give it a try man.

Hope this helps.

For the record stock recovery flash does not initiate counter.

When I was learning I read and read and read some more before flashing. It does take a lot of patience, but you'all get there, all the knowledgeable members on this forum started from scratch, just like u.

I'm trying to combine a smooth ics lockscreen wile using launcher 7 The only working one I've found has been the one from go locker but it requires me to also install go launcher and would have running 2 launchers + the stock 1 that would mean a lot pointless ram usage :(

I found this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ics.go.locker.theme&feature=search_result

At first it seemed perfect but it has a lot of bugs like pone wakes up randomly ads on notification and that BS.

Not sure if I'm posting on right thread or if this belongs in general.

I wanted to but I'm not willing to pay for something I can't even try first tried getting it cracked but no luck. and the mi locker one is prety damn ****y not to mention home button bypasses the lock and the lock screen isnt as fluid as it should be.

Guess I'll just have to wait for an update from the one I posted.

Hi,

I had read earlier posts of the matter.

Most of them outdated. So I hope I can get an answer here.

After setting up Exchange credentials I am forced to enter a PIN\Password, and cannot use alternate ways to unlock my device such as pattern matching and face unlock.

I've seen .APKs for older models that bypass this.

Is there any thing that would work for my HTC One X?

If there is such a mail.apk that would allow me to do so I will probably need to root my device to use it right?

And yes another noob question incoming, brace yourselves-is it better to hold off with unlocking via HTC dev (required for rooting?) because they void the warranty if you do it through them?

any other idea of how to work around this issue?

thanks.

[HTC One X] shogun168:
big big bump for this ...

I have a PIN on mine because of the exchange policy and it annoys me how you need to hit ok after entering the numbers when things like iOS and WP7 unlock straight after the last digit ..

Also anyone notice the lag when entering PIN?

Pattern unlock would be awesome ..

hmm.. another bump maybe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Was wondering if anybody has this issue with their phone. I have my brightness setting on 0 and no automatic brightness. When my phone goes to sleep it is at 0 but when I use it again the brightness is back on. I go back to my settings and the notch is all the way to 0. But I move it around and when I adjust it again back down, the actual lighting drops to 0 like its supposed to. This always happens when other awakes. Is that normal? Does it matter what setting it is on if its even a sleep? Also how can I correct this? Its annoying to always bring it back down. Thanks!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
What ROM are you using? Kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] flipq88:
Are you going to settings> display> brightness??? Cuz that's the only way i found it sticks to the brightness you set. I was using quick settings to adjust brightness but after looking and unlocking the phone it would always go to around 40% brightness. Tried a bunch of other apps and same thing would happen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I'm using Jugs 5 and switched back to faux 10u after being on backside for a few days.

Elflip that is what I have to do. When I used an app it would adjust ~40% and I would have to move it back. I wish there was an option with these apps to override that because its annoying. Its also annoying to manually adjust brightness at the top of the screen or even in settings.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] flipq88:
Yeah it sucks. Using the power savings widget that comes with the rom also works,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:

Probably an app doing funky stuff with the coarse location permission, could be anything that wants to know your location, including any free apps that want to send you targeted ads based on your current location, go in apps, look at the permissions of things, if they have the permission for coarse location, see if they are running, if they are, kill them, see if that fixes it.

Edit: IM apps (Skype, Yahoo, MSN, AIM, etc), Facebook, Twitter are all big culprits of RILJ wakelocks, it's almost definitely a rogue app, if my above suggestion doesn't fix it, do a full wipe and install apps 1 by 1 (not from backup) until you find the one causing it, then uninstall that.

It turns out the T-Mobile HTC Flyer is blocked by imei so you can only use Phone/Txt or Data only if you use it on T-Mobile.

I activated a T-mobile sim on Straight Talk for $45 unlimited everything and the T-Mobile branded Htc Flyer works perfect. My data rates have been around 5000+kbps down, 2400+kbps up and strange pings of either 85ish or 600ish.

If anyone takes their 3g international or T-Mobile 4g to Straight Talk be sure to order the Sim card for T-Mobile not AT&T. I understand if you use the AT&T sim you will only get 2g/edge.

I've just heard that if i do a factory reset on my Vivid w/ICS, it will bring it back to GB, with an upgrade message to get ICS back. Does this seem right? Thanks for any help.:)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ccb101:
i am pretty sure that will not work as far as i know you have to downgrade your hboot to go back to GB but i am not 100% on that seeing as i am not even thinking about going back to GB after having ICS
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
No that is not true a factory reset will just wipe all of your user data making it like when you got the phone it wont erase ics
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] come at me bro:
It will bring to the same Rom you have but as a completely fresh install
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Danny 0311:
That may be what i need. ICS acting weird. If i unmount and remove my sd card, i'll get a fresh copy of ICS, even though the phone originally came with GB? If i could go back to GB without rooting, i would, but i'll take what i can get. Thanks.:)

Weird. I've been running ICS (Rum Float Beta 4) since PirateGhost got us ICS and I've had zero issues. It's been absolutely rock solid for me. He released a Beta 5 but I haven't installed it yet since Beta 4 has been so good to me.

---------- Post added at 08:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

If you want GB back, just flash a GB ROM (and it's boot.img of course). You can run GB ROM's on the new HBOOT so I wouldn't go through all the trouble of a factory reset which will just get you back to ICS. If you think you like ICS and are just having issues with the ROM you're running, I would try a different ICS ROM or wiping and re-flashing the one you have to see if that fixes your issues.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Danny 0311:
My Vivid isn't rooted. This is my first Android phone, and i'm not quite sure what you're talking about, but it sounds exactly like what i need. I'd like to go back to GB, at least temporarily, and then try upgrading ICS again, hopefully from my phone's software update page. Is there anyway that you could lead me through this install, step by step? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.:)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prinzollo:
Hi all,

I'd like to change the contacts application I have in my ICS Rom with another one modded apk, I've tried with Root Explorer (replacing, changing permissions), with Titanium Backup (removing contacts and trying to install this apk), and replacing the contacts.apk in the system/app folder in the Rom flashable zip, but nothing was worth it. All i get is an error message that the application couldn't be opened.

What should I do to get it work? There's any particular procedure to overwrite a "default" application that come with the rom with another one?

How do I create a flashable zip to install it from CWM? Is it just enaugh to have the *.apk or I have to compile it in another way?

PS: I've also tried simply installing the new contacts.apk but it says "application not installed"

Thanks to everyone!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadow2981:
I could be mistaken/misunderstanding (but I researched when I wanted to replace battery icon) - but I think you would have to make sure you were on a de-odexed ROM..

Although when I tried to replace the camera.apk with the modified Gingerbread one on here, I got the same issue - so make sure the contacts apk you are trying to replace it with is for ICS also!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prinzollo:
Yeah, I explain, I'm trying to import the contact.apk that came with the Foxhound ICS rom in my Resurrection ICS rom.

Both of them are ICS based ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Yeah, but FoxHound is stock based, and Resurrection Remix is AOKP based. I don't think that will work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prinzollo:
You're right, I thought that too, but the contacts app is the stock one on the Resurrection, even if it's based on AOKP. So, in theory, the substitution should be possible..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
If you have a custom rom just open the rom with winrar and delete what you want and add to replace then close winrar and flash .

How is it working?

UberKernel overclocking with the OnDemandTcl1200 profile + Govnah

Freetether

Lots of Top Bar patches and the Advanced Reset Options patch all make life easier

App Tuckerbox

I'm an android user and fan, but webos is beautiful! :D
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] fatclue:
Beware of the 2.2.4 update for the unlocked Pre2. I've had a total of 4 of these devices between myself and my wife and they've all suffered the same idiosyncrasy. For some unknown reason, after about a week of normal usage the sound for alerts vanishes requiring a soft reset. It doesn't matter if they have preware or any overclocking, a stock 2.2.4 has done this. It may be a minor irritation for some but not hearing an alert for an important email is a big thing to me.

Unless you're using your Pre2 for message sharing with a Touchpad, I strongly recommend keeping it at 2.1 until the guys at webosinternals figure out if there's a patch for this. I've jumped ship to Windows Phone 7.5 but I still keep an eye on the happenings at webOS because I love the UI. I still find myself swiping at my phone and feeling like an idiot.

Thanks, unfortunately finished updating before reading this...

The bad thing is that in 2.1 the google account sync wasnt working well, in 2.2.4 is flawless (as can i see by now).
