[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
i doubt the ota fixed your issue as the issue is not one that occurs for every nitro.

I can tell you that when I make a phone call they screen stays no.

what's working not working, well, many of us are running it daily with no probs.

as you prolly know, it is a nightly build so a public list of what's working or not isn't rly part of the deal.

i've succesfully restore a nandroid from both slim and cm9 back to the stock att rom and others many many times. dozens.
[LG Nitro HD] chrisrotolo:
thanks good enough.

I will have to give it a go.

would you recommend one or the other?

CM9 or slim?

thank you.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
well, I like them both a lot. slim is just a trimmed down version of cm9 and i _think_ it does run just a bit snappier........maybe..but it's not wildly different from cm9. I usually switch back&forth throughout the day.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
There's no setting in CM9 to disable the proximity sensor, although there may be a way to do it.
[LG Nitro HD] no driver:
We just got a Nitro HD for my wife and her phone also has this issue. I have not gotten to know the phone well enough to try rooting or anything else of that nature, it's pure stock.

When she makes a call the screen turns off immediately after hitting the call button and will not wake up. When she receives a call we get a glimpse of the in-call screen with the various buttons etc but then the screen turns off. If the other party hangs up her screen turns back on, but if she calls something automated, like voicemail, she can't do anything except pull the battery to disconnect.

I've tried putting my thumb over the proximity sensor, hitting all buttons including power, and nothing makes the screen wake up or turns the phone off other than a battery pull.

The phone was running a build from last November when we first got it (V10i?) and today prompted us to update, so I did that hoping it would solve the problem. The phone is currently on V10j, but the problem persists.

Any help?
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
If you bought it from a store, get it exchanged for a new one.
[LG Nitro HD] chrisrotolo:
actually works much faster on cm9, but therr still should be an optin to keep lcd on during call. i found some free apps that will disable hardware drivers but cant find the name of the proximity sensor driver, only that is named LGE.
[LG Nitro HD] no driver:
Unfortunately it was given to us by a friend after my wife lost her Captivate, so taking it to a store to exchange is probably not going to work too well. As far as I can tell it was never used before we got it--the battery was still in it's own sealed pouch, the texting and driving warning was on the phone, and the phone went through the whole initial setup routine--but they didn't send us the box, I guess to cut down on mailing costs. I was hoping there was a known solution.
[LG Nitro HD] no driver:
Ok, I downloaded two proximity sensor test apps today, but neither showed any activity. On my Captivate I get different readings with Proximity Sensor Finder (market link), but on the Nitro it is stuck at 3cm and it doesn't register anything no matter where I put my hand over the phone.

Can someone whose phone works right try installing this app and make sure that it picks up different readings on this device? OP, if you are still having issues, can you also try this app and see if it is static for you?

Thanks.
[LG Nitro HD] no driver:
Took off the screen protector that they installed at the AT&T store and now the proximity sensor works just fine. OP, do you have a screen protector on your device?
[LG Nitro HD] chrisrotolo:
we had an awfully thick one from att. we have since changed it to a super thin one. screen off is not a real problem on cm9, however i feel all devices should have the option to disable proximity sensor/keep lcd on during calls.
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
It's worth trying to use the warranty on the phone. Even though you dont have the original sales reciept, the phone has been released for less than a year, so no matter when you bought it, it is still within it's year long guaranteed warranty window.

Lewa Launcher from Lewa OS​

This launcher is from Lewa OS, i tried in LG GT540 with Android 2.3.7 and works excellent, if works in my GT540, probably works in others phones. Lewa Launcher has themes, when you install Lewa Launcher, open app drawer( sliding up the main bar of icons ), see an icon that says "themes", open it and there is a list of themes to download. Lewa Launcher is very fast, fluid and smooth.

Just download and try it.

[HTC Sensation] fredcorp6:
In sense there was an option to disable GSM networks, so that it would only ever connect to 3G/HSDPA... In other words WCDMA only.

I have installed the ICS aosp theme over ARHD now, and therefore have aosp settings; there is now no way to turn to HSDPA only (that I know of).

I'm guessing there is something in the build prop I can change to enable this.. can anyone tell me what to change?

Thanks :)

Open up your dialer and type in: *#*#4363#*#*

Choose Phone Information, scroll down and you'll see a drop out menu, there you could choose to set it to which ever preference you like.

[HTC Amaze 4G] familydude99:
so i had this problem with my phone that about a 1 cm margin on the right side of my phone just doesnt respond and before you ask yes i factory reset and even went back to stock rom, but it just wouldnt fix it.

so had this problem for about one month and i got extremely annoyed with it ESPECIALLY because i got this phone when it came out so i still have more than a year left with this phone.

so i finally decided to give HTC an email about it.

they promptly responded with an email with a phone number for me to call and check on my warranty and talk about repairing my phone.

i called like a couple minutes ago and after like five minutes of staying in phone call limbo and listening to some catchy elevator music i got through to someone who sounded like she was tired because she slurred her words. it was not a bother for most of my friends talk like that. anyways back to the subject, i told them id numbers and told them that my LDI(liquid damage indicator) was white, which means no water damage. and she said

"well it seems everything is in order, your warranty is still in effect and we can replace your device's screen and you can have it back within two weeks for free you would just have to pay about ten dollars for shipping."

Eh i didnt care as long as i get this **** fixed. BUT THEN

i had to ask the question

what if i unlocked my bootloader?

she slowly responded with "well i'm sorry but that would void your warranty"

FUUUUUUUUUUU-

then i proceeded to ask her why, she said that if i sent in the device then more than just the screen would have to be replaced because they would have to get something with a locked bootloader. i asked how much...

$200 without shipping

well right now i am slamming my head into the wall for the unfortunate turn that happened.

i just thought to post this to let the community hear about.. well just to tell somebody, post your thoughts :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] TricH:
Just relock it, go back to stock and send it in
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
dude! just make a cover up and re-lock your boot loader... they dont need access to anything to replace the screen.

its litterally like a couple screws, pull the phone apart, disconnect a ribbon cable, pull old screen out, put new in, and so on... (they dont need in your hboot)

so just lock it, call back, and tell them whats going on. dont mention anything about hboot/unlocking. just let them fly into it blind :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] familydude99:
i was thinking that but do you think that would work??

for some reason i think that it will leave type of footprint and then i get a call from HTC saying

"your device has had an unlocked bootloader, please fork up 200 bucks"
[HTC Amaze 4G] familydude99:
also another thing, do you think if i actually do that would it be safe to go back to stock rom, in case they test it and see the custom rom and sayWTFBBQSAUCE

Use the S-Off method, but do not install Juopunut's HBOOT. It will say your phone is locked instead of relocked. Then you can use a fastboot command to make it S-On. They won't have a damn clue what hit them!
[HTC Amaze 4G] familydude99:
thanks everybody,

i dont think i will have to s on my bootloader because i have yet to s off.

this exact reason was why i was holding off on s off because that will definitely void the warranty, well i think i will start my journey on locking my bootloader,

so just to make sure, what should i exactly do.

this is what i think i should do

go back to stock rom, i think(btw if anybody has the stock rom, help me out)

lock bootloader,

lose root?

and then im set?

regardless i will wait untill this weekend to do any of that because i am busy during weekdays,

Also, to get s off, wouldnt i just have to do a command like 'oem lock'

or something like that
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Noobs :rolleyes: lol jk, just do this

Go to hboot screen

Then to fastboot

Open up terminal on pc

Type this

Fastboot oem lock

Then it will say "Relocked" on top

[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
Well, most likely, your warranty would not be void due to your bootloader being unlocked regardless of what the rep told you. As long as rhe issue with the phone is a hardware issue, which yours certainly is, it should still be covered by the warranty unlocked or not..

I use an app called Quick Boot. You can boot into recovery, bootloader, reboot or power off the unit. I think I also have it on my phone.

[General Questions and Answers] Algo2:
Late last week I tried flashing a new rom onto my CDMA (Verizon) Galaxy Nexus. I've done it before (I am using AOKP), however I tried a few new things and now my phone is stuck in the state it was in before this all started.

What I am on: Galaxy Nexus (CDMA, Verizon), AOKP build 28, franco Kernel

What I wanted: AOKP build 31 OR CM9 alpha nightly (for this device). I tried CM9 first.

What I did NEW: Installed ROM Manager, Flashed Clockword Mod Touch, "fix permissions" in CMW touch, mounted /system after flashing my Titanium update.zip. I may have mounted /system before fixing permissions.

What happened? The startup logo changed from the AOKP one to the CM9 one, but when the system booted up everything was exactly the same as before. This is the state I am talking about. No matter what I do it always reverts to this exact state upon reboot. I can install new apps, take pictures, etc. and it will revert to this upon reboot with all the apps, pics, etc. gone as if it never happened. The phone also reboots randomly. I also can't delete anything off of the sdcard partition. I've gotten messages saying /system is read only, and I think /sdcard has become read-only as well.

What I've tried to fix this so far:

Via the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit for Windows AND adb/fastboot:

Flashing the old CWM (no errors, but doesn't work)

Restoring an old nandroid (no errors, but doesn't work)

Flashing the stock rom for the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, released by google (no errors, but doesn't work)

Fixing permissions via CWM (no errors, but doesn't work)

Via Odin I also tried flashing the 4.0.2 stock rom. I got no errors (it said successful), but it didn't work. I am still stuck with the same exact state when I reboot.

I'm at my wit's end here.

Hey XDA.... Figured I'd share another helpful hint in the world of cellular communications. So here we go:

If you are listening to your car stereo and supplying music or videos from your phone by the way of a 3.5mm stereo cable from your headphone jack into a 3.5mm jack or RCA adapter into the headunit, you can hear callers over your car speakers and use the phone in headset mode without needing to use the speakerphone. I put the pictured item inline to my phone and it works like a charm. Even the end call button works. I paid $2 open box from BB and they normally sell for 3-4.

Hopefully, others can capitalize on this and make life easier in the car..... :-)

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreekCY:
Hi,

I am a total noob. I don't even know the proper expressions for this whole thing.

So this is my case:

I am outside the US and bought the Kindle Fire with a 6.3 firmware, couple of days ago.

Being curious about what it all can do, created a fake account with a test credit card as I read somewhere in the net.

Then downloaded the KFU 0.9.5 and rooted the device, everything went according to the plan, so I thought.

Then I discovered I had to use something called Market Opener to install other apps. But this Market Opener never worked.

So I found out that I had to change permissions. But this cannot happen as I get that message that adb services can not run in production builds etc. whatever that may mean.

So I downloaded Android SDK, followed the instructions installed it but I still cannot get into the root and change folder permissions. Sometimes it recognizes the device, sometimes not and when it does it tells me the same thing as above.

Then I would need some .apk to do the thing on the device but I cannot install those as I don't have the Market Opener or the Google Play and I cannot get those if I don't have superuser permissions to change things in Folders.

Basically I have been spending the last 3 days in searching the net for answers but to no avail.

So, can someone help me please? What I need to do is being able to install some apps including Market Opener / Google Play and being able to watch Amazon VOD. Is this possible?

Please bear in mind that I have no clue of the specific language, i.e. I don't know what flash is and how to do it nor I know how to do a backup and restore or how to reset everything in the original state.

SO if some of you have the patience to help, please advice me with some noob language so that I can understand.

Thanks in advance for the help that will come
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainchow:
Are you looking to put a custom rom on it or just root? If you're looking to keep Amazon services, you can put MoDaCo's rom on it, which is just like your kindle out of the box with a few extra bells and whistles. There are alot of guides floating around on how to get ADB working. There's an excellent beginners guide in the General section that I highly advise checking out.

Noob terms: if you want to keep the Amazon experience, I reccomend MoDaCo. Look for it in the development fourms.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreekCY:
Thanks for ur answer.

I have read a lot of guides out there but I seem not to be able to get the ADB working as I always get the message I gave in the original post plus the fact that sometimes it recognizes the device and sometimes not.

I have read the beginners guide which was excellent but without the ADB working there is little I can do I suppose.

As I wrote, I want to play with the device to see what it is able to do and want to use the Amazon VOD if possible. I.e. I would like to be able to use Google Play to get apps on will and still keep the Amazon services. Would that be possible with the MoDaCo staff?

Ok. I downloaded the MoDaCo staff.

Must I reset the kindle to the factory settings before I install that? If yes, how?

And how do I flash it?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Make sure you are in fact rooted.

You seem like you know enough about adb to try the following commands.

adb shell

ls /system/xbin

Look for a file called "su" in the list

Then...

ls /system/app

Look for a file called "Superuser.apk"

A lack of either of these means you're not rooted and may be the source of your problems

If you are trying to change system file permissions through adb...

adb root

adb remount

adb shell chmod blah /blah/blah/yadayada

Just don't literally type "blah /blah/blah/yadayada"
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainchow:
a factory reset won't really help you because you're basically replacing the operating system. pretty sure all amazon services are working with modaco. to install it, look around for a guide on how to install something called firefirefire (FFF) and TWRP. pretty sure that can all be done with kfu in a couple clicks. then copy the modaco zip onto your kindle, go into the wipe menu and clear out system, cache, dalvik cache, and data (factory reset), then go into install and choose the modaco zip. reboot and you should be set.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreekCY:
Thank you for your answer.

I would gladly follow your advice but the adb does not find my device. I don't know whether this is normal and if I must reboot my PC.

The kfu also gives me an offline status...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreekCY:
Thanks again for the fast answer. I am impressed!

Doesn't the FFF and the TWRP get installed automatically with the kfu?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainchow:
its most likely your computer. a reboot might help. if not, how did you install the drivers? are you using a mac or pc? try installing the drivers that came bundled with KFU.

if you're using a PC, go into device manager and see if something about android ADB pops up. if not, it's your drivers.

---------- Post added at 07:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ----------

haha, no problem :D.

if FFF was installed, you should see a picture of fire in a caution sign or an android logo over the kindle fire logo when you boot it up. if all you see is kindle fire, then you don't have fff. im pretty sure you need fff to get into twrp. if fff is installed, you should be able to hop into fastboot and install twrp if it's not installed yet.
