HELP!!!! I have a TF101 (C10) and tried to install the OTA update released a couple days ago..5/1/12..soon as i hit the update button and tablet rebooted to apply update it bootlooped and dumped me in CWM 5.5.0.4, now that i think about it OTA updates should probably not be ran with a custom recovery, but it's a little late for hindsight...:/ I have no CWM system backup files, i tried to APX new factory image/recovery image to no avail (i assume my TF101 is too new for the current unbricking tools/scripts out there (nvFlash), tablet just boots over and over into CWM, no error log messages either, very confused...ANY ideas of how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_Toggle:
Hello,

How can I tell what version a *.apk file is before I move it to the phone and open it?

I have many email.apk versions and would like to see, which version it is in Win$ows before I try to open and install it on my Vibrant.

Here is an example from the Vibrant-Droid-Razr 2.1 from Fishman.

Tx,

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cashmundy:
Apk files are actually zip files, or something similar. You can see what is inside them using file managers on the phone, or probably unzip on a PC. I took a look at one I had, and found the version number by viewing the AndroidManifest as a text file.
[HTC One S] batiste93:
I tried to turn off the phone by by pressing the power button for 10 sec as directed in the guide on the development section. But all that did was restart the phone. So i turned it off with the regular method then tried to get into fastboot with power+vol down; But all the phone did was just boot normally to the stock ROM.

PS. I am trying to unlock the bootloader to install costum roms.

Thanks for helping

Have You Tried POWER And VOLUME UP Buttons For At Least 10 Seconds? This Should Be Work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wjcarpenter:
((Been trying to solve this problem since yesterday and have done a fair amount of looking around the forum for answers. So, I simultaneously hope it's obvious and not obvious how to solve this. :-) ))

I just got a used MT4GS. HTC software is 1.28.x, and as far as I can tell, everything else is stock. In particular, I think the recovery is stock. I have also done a clear cash and a factory reset via the recovery screen.

I can download the OTA update to 1.63.x fine. In fact, I've done it several times so far. When I tell it to apply the update, this happens:

Phone reboots itself into....

A screen with two circular arrows, and another downpointing arrow in the middle of the circle. That's all lime green. A progress bar moves along and finishes in a minute or less.

After a couple of seconds, a new screen with the two circular arrows and downpointing arrow appears. It is a distinctly different shade of green, there is no progress bar, and....

It seems to stay stuck there forever. (Well, I've waited about an hour with no change.)

If I pull the battery, it boots back up with the original software version (1.28.x).

Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wjcarpenter:
Forgot to mention ....

When I do the battery pull, the bootup sequence makes a quick stop at the lime green arrows screen. The progress bar is empty and doesn't do anything. After a few seconds, it goes blank for a minute or so (maybe undoing something?), and then reboots to the normal boot-up sequence.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KingCheetah:
Sounds like the OTA won't install

I received a similar response when I tried to apply the OTA update to my own phone, rooted/unlocked at the time of the attempt. Sounds like you have a similar situation, whatever the cause might be.

First thing I would check is your hboot version. Boot into the bootloader by choosing reboot and holding down the volume button. The phone will vibrate a bit, but I find this the easier method than trying to hold down three buttons at once (power, volume down, camera). Once in the bootloader, your hboot version will be at the top.

If your phone has hboot 1.44.0007, you can root and gain s-off via the Revolutionary method. This will make it really easy to flash ClockworkMod recovery, and the 1.63.531.2 update. I recommend this excellent guide for completing this process: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1286324. I used this guide to root for the first time, and it went without a hitch for this noob. ;) While this isn't completely necessary, if you have hboot 1.44.00007, I would really encourage you to gain root/s-off through this method first, as it truly is straightforward. You'll have to use the HTC online unlocker to unlock the bootloader after you update to 1.63.531.2, but you won't lose s-off once you've gained it.

Next step is to flash the 1.63 update via a PG59IMG.zip file. MT4GS Guru Blue6IX has compiled a fantastic developer's reference guide. Go to this section http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17424340&postcount=24, and download the 1.63 ROM file from the mirror download link. Then scroll down to the notes section for PG59IMG.zip use instructions.

Once you have updated to 1.63, you'll need to use the HTC online bootloader unlocker found here: http://htcdev.com/bootloader. Follow the instructions to get your bootloader unlocked, then flash ClockworkMod recovery via fastboot--either official CWM 5.0.2.7 or Modaco 4.0.0.9. (Some MT4GS users (including myself) have had difficulty getting Advanced Restore to work with the official CWM, so if you believe you'll need that capability, stick with the Modaco version.) CWM 5.0.2.7 download link: http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.7-doubleshot.img; Modaco 4.0.0.9 download link: http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=mf/?8hrfs7awx15sckn.

After you have some flavor of CWM recovery on board, you can flash Superuser (AndroidSU.com), and you'll be rooted with the 1.63 update. Hopefully you'll also have been hboot 1.44.00007 and s-off through Revolutionary.

Hope the above info helps you achieve your goal. Definitely post back for further help if needed --

[About XDA developers] highlandsun:
After impatiently scrolling all the way to the bottom of the Expanded Index to find the Motorola Droid Razr forum, I thought "god there has to be an easier way..." I found the Compact index and it's a little better, but still takes a lot of scrolling to get thru. Can we have an even more compact index, with only the phone models and not their sub-forums listed? I'm OK with having to click thru to get to the list of sub-forums. I was thinking of just a calendar/grid style layout. It could be a picture gallery, with the model names as the caption, or just text. Anything to reduce the amount of vertical scrolling needed to find a phone model.

And on a slightly related note - I would really love to see an index organized by chipset/phone architecture. Mainly because I'm playing with my Droid4 and want to see what other phones' software I could possibly take advantage of. I've found a lot of interesting items in the Droid Razr forum already, but there's obviously more out there that I haven't discovered yet.

For another example, there were whole series of phones built on the Qualcomm MSM720x chipset, both WinMo and Android. It appears that the XDAndroid builds for HTC Rhodium et al were also useful across non-HTC phones like the Sony Xperia 1.

It would help us, as developers, to know what hardware out there is similar to each other. It would allow us to better leverage all of the software development work that's taking place, and we would all make progress faster.

It could help reduce the clutter in the index page, if forums were divided by phone architecture, not Carrier-branded model names. E.g., I don't really see why the AT&T Captivate / T-Mobile Vibrant / other Galaxy S phones needed separate main forums.

My $0.02, after a few years of working with this stuff...
[About XDA developers] cubsrule93:
Mostly good ideas..

So I agree with you on just about everything you said, that would definitely improve the site. I even agree with the revamping of the index. What I don't understand is why you're complaining about scrolling though. You could either use the provided search bar or even use Ctrl-F while in the index. Either way will get you to a specific phone pretty quickly, no scrolling needed. Unless I completely misunderstood you...

I've had this problem as well a couple of months ago.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JoJo2211:
I've heard the Galaxy Note i717's antenna is integrated into the BACK BATTERY COVER. But I've also seen parts on eBay that indicate the antenna is located in the the bottom of the phone where the speaker is. Can somebody verify this for me by taking off their back cover and making a call?

I am asking these question because I can't get network on my phone with or without the battery cover. Which probably means antenna is near the speaker part. But can somebody still verify? Thanks

Roll-up keyboard works.

Roll-up keyboard working fine here through powered USB hub. Just as accurate as can be expected with these crappy things, but it works like it should.

Edit: Thanks for mentioning this otherwise I would've completely forgotten I had one. Awesome.

Edit: To further clarify, if it matters my USB hub is a multi-TT hub, which was difficult to find since most manufacturers don't even advertise the feature. I needed one for MIDI latency reasons. If I remember correctly it has something to do with 2.0 devices on the hub receiving sufficient power and not getting dropped to 1.1?
[Kindle Fire Accessories] bennettg:
Thanks. Would you say that the roll up keyboard is easier and/or faster than typing on kf virtual keyboard?
[Kindle Fire Accessories] iesvs:
I was afraid you'd ask that.

I'm gonna go ahead and say yes, simply because it's a full-size keyboard. It does take more effort than a standard keyboard to register presses being as flimsy as it is, but when my PC was still up and running I started to get used to it being my only full keyboard (I'm typing this from my laptop) and I got pretty quick with it. Trouble here is, aftering getting my Fire I'm pretty damn fast on an Android keyboard so my judgment is possibly skewed. I say go for it. It's really the only portable option aside from those little Bluetooth keyboards, if anyone even has those working yet. I also got my powered USB hub to register my flash drive so that's promising.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] MaineO:
How exactly does a usb keyboard work with the KF?
[Kindle Fire Accessories] iesvs:
Powered USB hub, all the way.

I couldn't get enough power straight through my adapter or cable, so I used a powered USB hub. I rebooted the Fire, then the thing just worked. I'm really excited. I just hope the port provides enough power on its own for one of those tiny Bluetooth dongles. If not, I'm fairly certain there was a discussion thread here about trying to ramp up the voltages so hopefully they'll figure that out and integrate it into future releases. I really would like to be completely untethered.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fbiryujin:
I don't think I've ever seen a phone with native blacklisting. Perhaps because the SMS/call still counts against your plan and carriers don't want to explain that to people. iMessage on the iOS platform is even worse for this.

Personally, not amused. Didn't raise the bar the way the S2 did. US versions shafted with S4.

And also, I think it's absolutely hideous. "Inspired by pebbles?" Honestly, who could even say that with a straight face. Oval phones are just... not smart.

But all in all, it's probably one "Plus" away from being stunning, but alas, combined with a pretty questionable keynote, I'd say this is overall pretty disappointing. It's still easily one of the best phones on the market, but it's now in a market populated by the HTC One X and the Huawei Ascend D XL, the former which is stunningly beautiful, and the latter has the chance to be even more specs-heavy than the S3.

tl;dr: Samsung pulled a 4s.
