I have a vibrant. Cracked screen, but works perfectly. Rooted, ics, bla bla, bla. If you want it you can have it.

Listen to that man right there.. Or for anyone who drops there phone in water.. Immediately when you drop your phone in water. First thing you want to do is take the battery out so you don't short the motherboard then drop it in rice for at least 24hours to get the moisture out.. Take my advice I deal with this most of my days working for a repair company for electronics ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mustang1182:
Where are you from? I would be interested. I am in Indiana, I would pay for the shipping and such. Let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris31jct:
Happened to me many times. I went swimming at the beach for like 2 hours in. I was hanging out with some friends then I was like "Oh, I need to call my mom..." so while in the water I took my phone out from my pocket and everyone laughed. It was a Razor and of course it couldn't be repaired.

Another anecdote... I was in a beach resort with my family. I was resting, I said no beach for me so when I woke up everyone was down at the beach but me. I decided to put on some short jeans, nice shirt, shoes... I was dressed up not for the beach with my phone and wallet in my pockets. I went there, sat down with my mom and a friend of her when suddenly they start screaming that there was a little kid drowning. I started running toward the beach looking for the kid and I just went into the water, swam, got the kid, pushed his stomach to get him to puke the water and returned him to his parents. Just so you know, I received no thanks from them. Nothing. Believe me. When I sat down, my family and friends and random people were coming by me to say that I was a hero and thanks and congrats and stuff like that. Everyone seemed glad but me. I realized I got my phone and again it got f'ed up. Next week, dad got me the SGS4G phone and still rocking it for 16 months.

I fear summer is coming and beach is there waiting for my phone. LOL So maybe in June or July I will get a newer phone. LOL

Anyway, you should give the 25$ to the repair store. The worst that could happen is that you need to buy another phone. So take the risk. Also, follow the tips you have gotten from here. Put in on rice, some minutes in the sun, your mom, sister or gf's blower and you may have a functional phone soon. Hope you do. Only thing I have noticed is that you haven't mention which type of water were you swiming in? Pool with Clorox or something... and beach are no good but regular water I think it's no big deal. You just need it to be dry.

Good luck. Hope you had a laugh at me to ease the pain.
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
Got it open no problem, using fingernails and an old mastercard. :)

I do not recommend anyone do this unless they are very familiar with doing similar tasks - there are a number of things that can go wrong and some very delicate connections that will break easily.

Been trying all the PWR, Vol+/- combos and plugging it into my PC via USB. Nothing happens, at all. Is this useful info? No device is seen.

Even tried a dummy SIM to push a small contact switch closed at the bottom of the SIM socket, still no effect.

I've taken some photos, and identified the various antennas if anyone is interested. I will add them shortly.

Put the stuff in there bud, already similar topic. Easier for people to keep track.
[HTC One X] treebill:
that topic is full off, warranty crap i would read the s-off development and see if anything is in there.
[HTC One X] antipesto93:
i opened mine, its quite hard to initially get the screen to pop out, i wouldnt recomend using anything other than finger nails or you will damage something

after you opened it the Power button and Vol button will fall out, dont dop them!

the power button and vol button have a certain orientation, took me ages to realise that the power button only fit one way

removing the mainboard is quite hard, you have to void the warranty and there is a connector that is allmost impossible to get off(next to the battery)

oh and when you pull the mainboard up it gets disconnected from the power button ribbon, so make sure you un-glue the internal power button (pull it up) before pulling up the mainboard

so yeah its hard
[HTC One X] AliceXES:
Question: What's the pinhole above the headset connector for? Where do you get through that? It's a microphone or not?

Thanx!
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
It's the second mic, for noise cancellation.
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
I believe it's also used for the secondary (stereo) audio channel in One X video capture.
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
Yep, I forgot about that :) Although going by what some are saying, it doesn't record proper stereo anyway...
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
Yes, I've seen several reports of that too. Haven't tested myself though, mostly because until the stuttering / dropped frames are fixed, the video capture isn't really useful to me...
[HTC One X] raimondomartire:
According to you is simple fot a noob replace a scratch screen?
[HTC One X] knoxploration:
That's already been answered before: no. At least, not cheaply. The Gorilla cover glass is bonded in place, so replacing it will realistically involve replacing the entire screen assembly, which is a significant portion of the phone. (And good luck getting a replacement part that's not itself damaged.)
[HTC One X] The Asgard:
So how easy is it to replace the battery?
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
Tricky, but possible. The average user would mess it up though. If the connector were located differently, I'd say most could do it. But the connector is on the side of the board facing the screen, so it has to be lifted off to disconnect the battery.

The one major thing that would stop people doing this safely is the small power switch connection under the board that pops off (should be manually disconnected!) when the board is raised more than about 5mm. Assuming the user gets that far and the connector ribbon is not damaged from the pulling, the user then faces the challenge of reconnecting it - and they must or the phone will not power on! It can only be done when the board is almost back in place, using some very small tweezers and quite some skill.

The battery connector itself is relatively easy, but as I mentioned in another post, it comes off differently than you might expect, which leaves room for damage if it is forced. The battery itself is glued down, so must be forced off - again a risk for the inexperienced as you could damage the battery if excessive force is used from the wrong point, or worse, you could damage the delicate ribbon cables that lie under it if you try and pry it off with something by sliding under it.

So in summary: it is possible but only if you have experience with disassembling similar devices and putting them back properly. The margin for error is thin.
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
Absolutely not. I'm not sure I'd even try that myself without having the proper service manual - there are too many things to go wrong.
[HTC One X] Sybregunne:
You shouldnt have done that...

Lol just kidding!

Is that a connector farther to the top from the pogo pins near the WiFi label you placed? its only one piece but could be our magic lock.

Edit: on zooming in it looks more like a screw.
[HTC One X] GabrielSousa:
can you had a video, opening the HOX ?
[HTC One X] Dave Trouser:
No, because then people with zero skill will copy it and break their HOX and then blame me. If you can't work it out from the Chinese tear down photos, then you lack the skill needed to avoid doing damage.

Also, I don't have time to make a video anyway :-p

i just bought a new arc s LT18i

I'm a new pie

if i use this tool to root my phone

- DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v4.0](zergRush Exploit)

&

i use this tool to install CWM boot from the play store

- Xperia CWM Auto-Installer

i will be able to flash custom roms and custom kernels like (doomloard kernal)????

:confused:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluxgfx:
No. This will only allow you to ROOT your phone.

You need to check to see if you "BOOTLOADER" is unlocked

If the bootloader is unlocked and ONLY IF.

Then you would be able to Flash a Kernel in Fastboot

And

Install a custom rom.

Multiple post on the forum already exist on how-to do all of that.

Cheers.

Hi all,

What do "Dim" and "Auto" mean in Backlight settings using cyanogenmod.

I have these settings available in the power management widgets, and i use only 25%/100% for brightness toggles, because i don't know what the others mean.

Thank you,

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] dragonnn:
Dim mean darkest and auto regulate the backlight to the light around the phone - but it doesn't works on Ace because we don't have light sensor.

hey guys.. dunno if anyone can help me ... but im on 4.0.4 on my gsm nexus and when i lauch the play store when i press the app switcher i realized that google maps is in there when i didnt launch it... anyone else had that prob?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rasinell:
Clear maps data/cache. It will go away
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demzzy:
Thank you kind sir that fixed it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Do you understand why?

Clearing cache/data for an app force closes it. It will return on reboot ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
As has been pointed out, that does not fix it. All that was done is merely force closing maps and it will resume the exact same behavior upon a reboot.

Open maps and let it find your location. That should actually resolve the issue for you with the added benefit of actually persisting after a reboot.

[Focus General] avengin:
I was wondering as was stated in the thread title, is it possible for me to route not only browser data, but data from apps through a specific proxy port? lets say port 80?
[Focus General] fishfly:
Great question, our company also uses Corporate APN's with a proxy, I've only managed to get my SEX10i to work with the following kernel:

2.6.29 FXP

Baseband 2.1.71

MIUI 1.12.16 OODIE |pRiMe|

with ProxyDroid...

From the limited knowledge there is a global proxy that you can route all apps through with this kernel/Rom...

However I don't see that in ICS so I'm back to square 1 with my SGS3 - I'm considering on looking into ProxyDroid's codebase to perhaps try hack out some sort of routing mechanism...

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizchinorichie:
Hello everyone, I haven't been on XDA since the HTC wing came out. I've scoured the forums and noone seems to be having the exact problems. I am VERY new to android and may have potentially messed up my tablet.

Anyway, I would really appreciate it if you extraordinary gentlemen could give me some assistance with my TF101. I want to install CWM and root it and install custom ROMs.

First, here are the symptoms:

1.USB cannot connect to the tablet

2.USB cable can charge the tablet just fine with the adapter

3.When trying to access recovery, boots to bugdroid with the blue prism then goes to bugdroid lying down with a red triangle and exclamation point on top of it

What I did to get to this position:

1. did not note what build I was on but used ViperMODS Primetime [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427125] and option 1 to root.

2. Used VooDoo OTA root keeper to back up the root.

3. upgraded to the newest OTA update...9.2.1.21

4. used the back up to "root" with Voodoo OTA RootKeeper

5. Used Rom Manager to "flash" Clockworkmod recovery. First time froze... restarted the tablet and did it again with "success"

Then the symptoms showed up. So what did I do? and how can I fix it? thank you to anyone who offers their input!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
your problem is using rom manager use Gnufabio's recovery installer to put the right one in then reflash the stock firmware or a custom rom to get rid of the recognition problem
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizchinorichie:
Tried recovery installer, it says i am not rooted.

from what I read, I have to downgrade before I can root, correct?

But I cant use ADB because of the usb problem... so what can i do?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] getbuzzin:
Have you tried reinstalling the newest asus sync driver? I have to reinstall the driver once in a while because adb won't see my tf.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Try this

look in system/bin to see if you have su there

copy su to system/xbin and try RecoveryInstaller again
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizchinorichie:
It says permission is denied.. which means im not rooted. but I do have the superuser app showing in my tray and root checker confirms that I am rooted... wth!

ive been at this for a full week and i am being thoroughly frustrated...

EDIT!!! I tried a full wipe, and after your trick the process went through! ty! and so now... whats next? just flash a custom rom?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizchinorichie:
One question... the USB issue is a hardware, software, or bad luck problem? Meaning would the flashing of a custom ROM possibly fix this issue?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Any of the 3. A rom Might fix it, but it's more likely a driver issue on your computer. Linux wouldn't need drivers, so if you have access to a linux machine try that.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizchinorichie:
Ah I see... because I ordered another TF101 for my mom.. so I guess A) I can try her USB cable and/or B) do this trial and error thing to see if its my port thats busted... do they sell the part? meaning... is it soldered in or ribbon like most phone parts?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Go ahead and try her cable, but the ones that come with are usually fine. I really would think it's driver related.

[HTC One X] mgdew:
For my in car solution, previously I used a brodit Active dock which you could plug an iphone cable into the bottom of, that cable I used previously for iphone was one iphone port in, but had an audio out as well as usb charge cable, so I was able to jack into my cars 3.5 Audio port and the other end into a usb cigarette port adapter, it was commonly referred to as a Y Cable.

I am looking to do similar from the Brodit Active HTC One X dock once its released, and ideally use one cable that plugs into the docks micro usb port (which the HTC One X plugs into in the dock).

So, a) does the micro usb port on the phone support sending the audio out ? and b) if so, does anyone know of a cable that will split out to an audio and usb end such as I described above..

Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

Anyone else able to offer a solution ?
[HTC One X] JamesBarnes:
HDMI is digital though, so to use with a standard 3.5mm Aux you will need a digital to analogue converter. Assuming it cant switch to analogue... its a bit up in the air at the moment, need to wait for a few devices to hit the shops :/

All you need is-

You can also make a cable and connect them to the pins on the back that are used for a dock.

I am facing issues with Pre-Cache option of google maps in One X. Once an area has been pre-cached, it shows in google maps settings under Cache, however as soon as phone is restarted, all pre-cache area is deleted.

Is any one else facing this issue.. ?? My first serious issue on One X
[HTC One X] IPS1989:
i think that occurs due to the phone emptying its cache when it restarts, therefore this will happen everytime you restart the phone. as of yet, there is no workaround for this.

It never happend on any other phone. Pre-cache means it is saving that area of the map till deleted. It should not be deleted as I understand. The whole purpose is to be able to use it offline.

Also, a popup comes up very very very often that says the process com.android.media has stopped working. Again, this has happened with CM7 and the other CM9 release too. This is prbly because all of the roms I was flashing were update-xxxxxx.zip.

If anyone could just link to a complete 4.0 install that wipes your apps (as opposed to an update), that would be greatly appreciated too.

Thanks,

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
The update- does not mean it is not wiping system for you, because it does. That is just a generic name. But no ROM installer wipes your installed apps, or your system app settings. The only way to do that is with a factory reset. The problems you are having probably indicates you should do one. Back up your installed apps and data by doing a backup with Titanium Backup. Then you can restore them after the reset.
