[Galaxy S I9000 General] grasshoxda:
you should do the same so u can enable the nav buttons and forget the physical ones. u can have home menu back and multitask on the nav bar, plus the phone runs soooooooooooooooooooooo much smoother, its like i traded an old vibrant for a galaxy nexus
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Speedum:
I have this problem before probably a year ago and I fixed it, I think, by first flash the stock 2.2 rom, then after the flash go to that menu again (which caused this trouble) and hit update again.. If it works then flash the 2.3 or better.. This is from my memory from a year or so ago

It is fixable and I got the fix method from this forum.. Forgot exactly which thread since it has been long time.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lightsun47:
Buddy that's what I wrote in my post, but showed the only difference I have is that I have to use custom (speedmod kernel) kernel to boot up otherwise my phone won't start. So, when I get back to everything stock, I will for sure try that number thing again on 2.2 to fix it. Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] grasshoxda:
i will try too and report
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AThomasAll:
Dit it?

So, dit it work? :fingers-crossed:

How do you take a screenshot on this phone? I'm sorry for wasting time with this. I can't figure it out or find it in the manual. Thanks in advance.
[HTC One S] ValliJoe:
-Vol + Power button
[HTC One S] BTTRDYZ:
It's press and hold the the power button the press on home;)
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
It's both.
[HTC One S] Stiflerlv:
one of these was "sens" function, so if u get rom w/o sens I think the home+power button wont work (or the otherone :D)
[HTC One S] kaeruil:
I think the home+power is from sense as it doesn't work on my friends gnex, but for some reason I can't get the power+vol- to work on my one s but works fine on his gnex.
[HTC One S] DrGreenLeaf:
For my stock US tmobile it is power+home button.
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
It's both, for both versions of the phone.
[HTC One S] alex_oO:
Vol- + Powerbutton doesn't work for me :/ But Power + Home works fine (and is easier :D )
[HTC One S] DrGreenLeaf:
Tried the other way several times, maybe its one or the other...
[HTC One S] pbelcomp:
You can keep saying it, but it doesn't make it true.

Power + Home works for my T-Mobile (US), Power + Vol- does not.
[HTC One S] raikesy:
Power + Vol - is an ICS feature. It does work on the One S, it just takes a bit of practice :)
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Are you serious? Is this really something someone would lie about?

I can do both on my One S. I didn't even know about Power + Home until it was mentioned in this thread. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't and/or it's not a feature.

Yes, I have a TMO-US One S.
[HTC One S] FRuiTBoOT:
Hold Power then press the Home button.

Not to be that guy but this question has been asked a few times before, please search the forums first, also there is a Noob Q&A Thread for stuff like this. "Noob" not being derogatory.
[HTC One S] joshnichols189:
Here you go, I made a Youtube just for you!

(And this thread, to prove that they both work)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqdip6XJUJs&feature=youtu.be

Yes, I have that much free time since classes just ended for the summer.
[HTC One S] DownloaderZ:
Both methods work

Method 1:

Press power and volume - at the same time

Method 2:

Hold power while tapping the home key
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
Power and volume down hold them then let go.
[HTC One S] ValliJoe:
Yea just tested both my self -vol+power seem to have a shutter sound and have to be pushed at the sametime as for the power+home just flashes the screen and power can be pressed befor tapping the home button.
[HTC One S] DownloaderZ:
Also one gets put in the screenshots subfolder while the other goes in the cameraroll....

the QA on this phone leaves me cold.
[Acer Iconia A500] diiorio:
Ok, the Acer wheel, is cool for some, and a waste for others.

I personally am glad they didn't include it wit hteh intial A00/A100 release, I don't liek it all that much, but any hopes of someone makign a more functional, multi tier alternative to the lock screen?
[Android Apps and Games] thebigmann:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] postwick:
I use SwitchPro Widget and one of the buttons I have on it is the toggle for lock screen on/off. I had this problem with my stock ROM and still have it with my MikG ROM.

I tap the button to turn the lock screen off. It works fine. I can press the power button and the screen turns off, when I turn it back on it comes up without having to be unlocked.

But a few minutes later it goes back to locking. I have to turn the lock on through the widget, then back off...and it only sticks for a few minutes again.

Is this an Android problem? Something wrong with SwitchPro?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klharalson:
You might try clearing data and rebooting, or just try uninstalling and reinstalling the app...I have used this app once before and didn't have this issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Or you could try a different app, like No Lock.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akedz:
So Today I changed my gfs lcd and the digitizer. Installed it fine, I make sure all the ribbons are properly connected and close up the phone. The phone turns on and shows the splash screen, seems like it's booting. I decide to use the latest RUU and see if that helps. A few reboots later i on the newest hboot, thing is it keeps happening, except now i can hear it boot (sprint boot anim). I battery pull a few times and I get it to boot. Touch screen works fine and all, tick Development and keep awake (because once it slept it wouldnt turn on again), mind you adb works while the splash is displayed and after the boot anim, adb also works when the screen is turned off and it wont wake up.

I just want a second opinion on if i should get another lcd screen. The one I installed didnt have the best reviews.

Thanks.

ps: i dont post alot because i know how to search, but i havent found anything on this exact issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
Im slightly confused... so does it boot? or not? I am trying to make sense of what you wrote...

Try clearing the storage in hboot something may have corrupted during the process...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akedz:
well it does boot you can hear the sprint boot animation, and i can also adb into it. getting into the bootloader works fine, booting into recovery or regular booting is the problem. Just displays the splash screen, but as I said I think it does boot into recovery/system because I have adb access.

edit: i just turned it on and it booted, but once put it to sleep the screen wont turn back on.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
If it's not getting pay the splash something is stalling it... Did you try to run a logcat from adb? Do that and look for errors.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] miniProBhashi:
I know that this is also another linux based os and so as we were able to put Ubuntu for android devices I thought we should be able to put maemo too. Guys anyone tried? Post links if you have imgs!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slopes216:
Noobie here. But I have been ultra careful in checking and rechecking all the methods for preparing my Xperia Mini and flashing custom roms (I've read many threads on XDA and watched loads of YouTube videos).

Here's my problem. Using CWM, I flashed the correct MIUI rom for my st15 mini. I then went immediately to flash the correct kernel for this.

In CWM the only option is to flash a '.zip' file... but as the kernel I placed onto the SD card is a '.img' file... CWM didn't not find it in the list of files available to flash.

After seaching everywhere to try to find out what I'd done wrong, I had no choice but to tell CWM to exit and close down the phone.

Now, the phone starts itself and gets stuck on the SE boot screen. And it's impossible to get back into CWM. Sony's program for restoring the system recognizes the phone but instructs me to launch it before it will restore (which, of course, I can't do). Flashtools also recognizes it but doesn't seem to want let me flash anything to it.

Clearly the problem is the phone cannot now find a kernel to boot with.

ANY help on fixing the problem - and letting me know where I went wrong in flashing - would be very much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmcfalls:
I have Badass Battery and Better Battery Stats installed to figure out what is causing wakelocks. It seems that Handcent popup is causing partial wakelocks and it is really draining my battery. Is anyone else seeing this? Any solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Turn off the pop up setting I'd think is the only option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmcfalls:
Yeah, but I was hoping that I could continue to use the popup without the wakelock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpz1100:
Any resolution to this besides turning that option off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
GoSMS is better.

Sent from someone's Galaxy Nexus running AOKP + Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gpz1100:
Gosms has become too bloated. Its saving grace however is that it has no wake lock issues. Still, this thread is about handent, not gosms :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
Bloated? As long as you run "Normal" or "Lite" mode, there's not bloat, only "Pro".

But, I said GoSMS is better because its an easier alternative than dealing with wake locks from Handcent and possibly Chomp SMS as well.

Sent from someone's Galaxy Nexus running AOKP + Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Weazmeister:
Thanks for that post! Just switched to GoSMS Pro and Normal mode, voila. Perfect and no more wakelock issues! My battery and I thank you :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
Damn. and here I was thinking it was lightflow causing the wakelock. I have been using the handcent pop up for a few years now. Never noticed it till lately that something was up with my battery. Wierd...

Thanks for the help though :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
Has anyone noticed more battery drain with your Gnex connected to 5Ghz Wifi N vs 2.4Ghz or is it just me?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
No? Anyone? ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinkXDA:
5GHz is broken for most—so it’s unsurprising you haven’t gotten any responses.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
5ghz is NOT broken for most. For some, sure. It is limited though.

I am connected daily to 5ghz. No drops, no excessive drain.

@the OP: I have no had worse battery life, but I do have weaker signal (which is to be expected). What channel are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
My 5Ghz connection to my Gnex is great but I do have the quite expensive Cisco E4200 router ...

I believe that it was the GLaDOS kernel that I was using which was the problem. Once I left the "stock" CyanogenMod 9 kernel I haven't had any more problems with battery drain. I'm not really sure if it was really GLaDOS on 5Ghz that was causing the excessive battery drain or not? While I was using 2.4Ghz i didn't have nearly the excessive battery drain that I did while on 5Ghz but i didn't properly troubleshoot while on GLaDOS either because I've been quite content with the "stock" CM9 kernel and getting better battery life.

Yes 5Ghz signal and range are less than the 2.4Ghz signal and range like you said that's to be expected ... I'm not sure the channel its set to auto i suppose i could switch to another channel but i won't because i'm quite content with my connection again :)

Thanks for the responses guys

I'm going to be getting a Galaxy Nexus GSM soon, and I want to root it. I really want Google Wallet though. Will Google Wallet function on a rooted Galaxy Nexus? Thanks

PS: This is the straight from Google Galaxy Nexus that does come with functioning Google Wallet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
yes itll work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blowtorch:
ya what he said ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Thanks. That's great to know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
you're welcome. the only thing that doesn't work with root is google movies and maybe some DRM-related movies. netflix + root works fine tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
The only difference that you'll notice is wallet will show a banner that says "not supported" or something along those lines.

This literally doesn't change anything, though.

It's just there to warn you that if your cards are stolen...it's not their fault.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
That's quite alright. I'm totally inside Apple's ecosystem right now, but I use Requiem to strip their DRM anyway. (No piracy of course) I prefer to have full access to the things I purchased. Part of why I'm going from iOS to Android. Rooting provides more access than jailbreaking does.

LOL I'm only going to use the prepaid Google credit anyway. If it's not reloadable then I'll take the risk with my real cards. Next up on my list of things to do is figure out how to get call recording working.

Thanks again guys
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Well rooting and custom ROMs are two different thing. But yes, "rooting" does more than jailbreaking (but rooting is the gateway to custom ROMs) Android is definitely more open than iOS. Good luck with the transition and hope that the Galaxy Nexus will give you a good first impression at Android :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Thanks. I actually have gone back and forth a few times. iPhone 3GS > Original Motorola Droid (iDon't commercial lured me) > iPhone 4 (FaceTime lured me) > Skyrocket (Sky ICS ROM) > iPhone 4S (Siri lured me) > Galaxy Nexus (should be here wednesday. Wallet lured me + I want call recording back)

If I won the lottery I'd probably pick up a Windows Mobile 7 phone too to check it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daihard:
I tried Google Wallet with my rooted Galaxy Nexus (GSM) at Rite Aid. It worked before I rooted it, but now the PayPass machine does not work anymore. I do get the warning about "unsupported device," but unlocking with my passcode seems to work. Is anyone else having the same issue? I really don't want to unroot my phone just to use Google Wallet.

I tried OTA RootKeeper to "hide root," but that doesn't seem to help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krichek:
My phone has been unlocked/rooted since the day I got it and I use google wallet at least once daily. Root is not the problem. More likely it's either the person working the register or the pad itself that is the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
OTA RootKeeper fixes this problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1422779
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daihard:
Interestingly, it was the exact same person working at the exact same register where I got my Google Wallet working before rooting and failing today. She even remembered me from my last transaction and wondered why it did not work this time. I don't need to re-install Google Wallet once I've rooted the phone, do I?

[EDIT] I reset Google Wallet and tried again, both the root hidden and restored using OTA RootKeeper. It worked! Resetting my account must have done that. The cashier (another person this time) asked if I had a "Nexus" phone. Sure felt good. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
I rooted as soon as I activated the phone. Wallet has always worked for me. Then again I only used it twice so far. Long Island isn't a tech savvy region and I can't eat at McDonald's every day just to use Wallet :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cade80:
,

Does google wallet work with custom roms?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Oh so it works with like AOKP and others I unroot my phone cause of it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
Wallet works for me with the AOKP from and the CMPlus kernel. It worked without issue both times I used it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
So I guess that message on tip don't matter I guess I will have to wait to get home and glad TWRP again... Thanks for the info

Out of no where my 3.5mm headphone jack is like jammed or something idk but whenever i try to plug in my earphones it doesnt go in all the way and its killing me because i always use my headset to listen to music and take calls. The only way it works if i push it down to the point where my phone can recognize it. This happened out of no where and i really need this problem to be fixed or i might just need a new phone :mad: so any help would be much appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zoppp:

[General Questions and Answers] redragon95:
So I went to my local Microsoft Store, and I saw that they still had the Windows Phone challenge. I walked in, said that I wanted to take the challenge, and just before we started, they asked our ages(I was with a friend) and we said 17. The guy said that one of us should be at least 18. So my question is, can I go to the store with someone who's older than 18 and take the challenge?

As of now it is just me testing the Kitchen, as I get more experienced, I will be changing the ROM into something new and exciting but I love getting peoples opinions on things so..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mazda:
What all do you plan on doing to this ROM aside from things that are available via the kitchen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandix:
Well I am also learning scripting and such, Maybe add a "Webtop" Like feature as well..

idk does anyone have any ideas as far as features they want there Evo to do?

I am open to anything, and if i can do it, I will.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
downloading
[EVO 4G Android Development] monkeychef:
That would be freakin awesome. Someone did it a while ago, but its old. Would love to see what you could do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandix:
Yeah, I was thinking using CM7 as a base if we were to include a "WebTop" Feature which I think we should call "The VIP Korner" Since you know I based it off 4 Kornerz ROM.

The problem is IDK what to use as far as scripts, where would I get a script that will download AND install ubuntu for you, Like an all-in-one script to do it and then include a terminal app to run it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] monkeychef:
I would love to help, but sadly I know close to nothing about development. Would there be an issue with having terminal pre-installed, and then have the script within the ROM, and have the command to activate the script in the OP?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandix:
There would be no issues with that at all. In fact there is a rom like that for the HTC thunderbolt, but I have no idea how to port..
[EVO 4G Android Development] bimmerman7:
Why no ICS love? Whole lotta Gingerbread baking going on, not enough Ice Cream licking...don't be scurred! You wanna do something special, use ICS as a base and get creative!

Maybe because everything works with GB?

BTW, Sandix you've got a great base there. Diablo has that going nicely.

Sent from my PC36100
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandix:
Thank you NaterTots. :) well said.

Well bimmerman7,

I am not using ICS because it is still unstable for our device we are working on.

I will be using CM7 as the end product but I'll still be working on 4 Kornerz because to be honest I am loving the 4 corners he has put in the launcher. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bimmerman7:
How about 4Korners ICS! That would be tight! Have you flashed any ICS recently? The only thing not working is video recording, FFC, and 4G. Really unless you are a narcissistic a-hole how often do you really use it? If more people devved for Android 4.0 maybe these issues could be solved to...that's all I'm saying...We are 6 months into having ICS for our Evos and still dont have a fully functional complete ICS rom , its time to quit piddling with Gingerbread and move on....how many Sense 1.0 roms do we really need with a new launcher or rosies and mods...its like beating a dead horse...two guys can't be expected to do it all[Drew and Deck]

No offense Sandix, but its just more of the same...these threads are gonna die real soon...everybody that got Evos on launch day will be moving on in a couple months when they get their upgrade...just would like to see devs take on the challenge of ICS and give us the latest and greatest...no Froyo rom will ever be better than Myns or Magnus', no Gingerbread rom will ever be better than Synergy or CM7, what's next? Our biggest promise seems to be porting other phones ICS to our phones a la CM9 and Gummyworms...I would maybe focus on bringing the Evo something special and new if you are going to spend time devving for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sandix:
The whole point for my ROM is to bring something new and sexy to the evo e.g. Webtop.

I just need people to shoot me ideas and I'll make it happen. Somehow..
