Strike 1

I tried AOPK and when I flashed it, the firefirefire came up and the screen went black....

I got back into recovery and did a restore so I'm back on MoCaDo.

TWRP works LOL.

I flashed the zip and wiped the cache before I rebooted. Did I miss a step?

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
When switching to a different rom, especially one that's completely different; "factory reset", wipe system, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik, then install.

Gapps will likely need to be reinstalled as well.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
Will that wipe my backup too?

I have all the .apk files for Google play and such on my PC, so I'm not worried about that. I just don't want to wipe my backup and have something go wrong.

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
No. There's another option for wiping the sdcard.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
Awesome! ICS looks delicious.

However, I cannot get google play to work.

I installed the vending.apk, and it's in my app menu, but when I open it it just flashed real quick and I'm back at the home screen.

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Forget about the vending.apk. You need to flash gapps while in recovery.

Oh, I forgot, I need to copy googleserviceframework into the /system/app folder.

I just can't get it to change to r\w so I can change the permissions and paste the file. What am I missing?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
Sorry, I didn't get your first reply until now.

So I need the latest Cyanogenmod9.zip to flash GPlay in TWRP?

I was using APOK, but I restored back to MoCaDo so I'd have a functioning tablet until I had the time to sit down and really get into it.

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Actually the filename should be "gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip".

...and, yes.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
OK. But I went back to macodo. So do I install Alon first, then galls ice signed.zip?

Never mind, I used the link you provided.

Thanks,

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
OK

I have APOK and Gapps working. Soupmagnet, you are awesome.

I still have my backup because there are still a few things that the APOK ROM is not doing correctly, and I'm not sure if it's something I need to do, or part of the build.

The calendar will not sync with my device

The device does not show up when I USB to my PC to add files.

When I power off the device, it looks powered off, but I have to hold down the power button for several seconds to actually power it off.

Kyle.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchevaux:
1. Check under your account to see if the calender is checked to sync.

2. I don't beleive all ROMS have mass storage working at the moment. You can mount the kf as a disk drive by booting in to TWRP.

3. ICS has an issue when powering down. Don't use the menu to power off. Hold the power button in until the device completely shuts off.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Yep, all known bugs that are being worked on. Just be sure to plug it in or hard shut down when not in use for a long period of time. And use TWRP or something like "wifi file explorer pro" until UMS gets worked out.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
Thanks!

I do have my calendar set to sync with my Google calendar... It's just not syncing

TWRP does mount USB.

That's a bummer. I don't like to hard shutdown, but I do like ICS. :)

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchevaux:
That's strange the calendar isn't syncing. Did you try to force a sync and see what happens? I know the hard shutdown isn't ideal but there hasn't been any talk of it causing ill effects. I believe the shutdown issue is being worked on and hopefully will be resolved in the next kernel release.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
No I haven't tried to force sync. I don't know how. I went to the settings and made sure that the sync was on b\c the browser was trying to sync, and i turned that off, but left calendar et. al. with sync on.

On the subject of performance, Now that I have the Roms flashed and backed up in TWRP, can I delete the TWRP.img and the rom.zip files, or do they need to be on the device?

Kyle
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
You should keep your backups on the computer to save space and protect yourself in case something happens to your sdcard.

And it would probably be a good idea to keep a copy of the twrp.img on your sdcard just in case. The rom.zip can be deleted. It serves no real purpose after it has been flashed unless you just want to keep it for later.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylebenton:
Great! I have all the backups on my computer already; both for my Kindle and my Thunderbolt. Speaking of which, it's about time for a new TB rom... after I get the Kindle ICS working properly :)

You guys are awesome and I have learned so much in the past week. I cannot thank you enough :)

Anyone else having trouble selecting a different keyboard? I installed "Keyboard from Android 2.3+" by Steven Lin (he's done a lot of work on it besides porting the gb keyboard), and while I can toggle it "on" in Settings -> Language & keyboard, I cannot set it as the keyboard to be used. At least on past phones I had to turn it on and then select it as the keyboard to be used. I tried long presses and various swipes, nadda.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheAndroidSwap:
Semi-related. I would also like to use a different keyboard, but I would like one that wasn't so cluttered with symbols and worked more like the iPhone keyboard.

Also, it'd be nice if there was one that didn't take up so much of the screen. It's a 720p screen, I don't need the keys to be so tall!

Once enabled, go to any app that opens the keyboard.

Look at your notification bar. It'll be a mini keyboard icon in the left corner. Open the notification bar and it'll have an option to select input :)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
Would like to know a better way too besides Google+. I don't want to create an account just to sync pictures...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig0r:
Huh? Google+ accounts don't have hi-res pics either... Unless you know something I don't.

Plus, given that we all have contacts from various sources, this would be the furthest thing from a solution.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bothfly:
I had the Unlocked One X before I got the ATT version and it was exactly the same deal. I uploaded high res pics for my contacts and when you use Caller ID they look fuzzy, same when your editing them. I've taken pic's using the One X's camera and tried to use those pics as well, same result, fuzzy pictures.

On the other hand I'm using the Pictures Lock screen and I uploaded a bunch of high res pics, like I said and they look great bouncing around on the lock screen. Cool feature
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
The best way I have found is to download the Friendcaster app and tell it to sync high-rez pics from Facebook.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yuccaman:
Ok, finally took the plunge and went to Team EOS 2.0.0 from stock.

I had previously made a Titanium Backup of everything, using the standard settings for External Data which is to back up if below 32mb in size....

After Flashing and restoring apps, the only issue I had was with Zen Pinball HD....

The ROM Flash used the EOS Touch recovery so didn't wipe Internal Storage and so the Zen Pinball Files (The purchased Tables) were left in place.

However, when launcing Zen Pinball, it only had the included table. Although it allowed me to download new copies of the tables I had bought (whew), I wondered if anyone had seen this before and if there is a way to prevent it next time I do ROM flashing.

Other apps with a lot of External Data (Shadowgun, NFS Pursuit etc) with is over 32mb in size and therefore would not have been included in the Titanium Backup worked fine and didn;t need to be re-loaded.

I guess I can always increase the External Data setting in Titanium to be alrger than the sub of my tables and see if that works, but anyone have a better suggestion ?
[General Questions and Answers] elykl33t:
Hey everyone,

So I've been looking all over the place for solutions to this. I currently have my Droid 3 rooted and running CM9. Unfortunately, the "r" and "d" keys on the physical keyboard do not work, nor do the volume buttons on the side, and so I want to get it replaced.

Before sending it in, I of course want to restore it to factory state. But, as I noted, the volume keys do not work. At all. As a result, I cannot get into AP Fastboot.

So, does anyone else know how I can restore my phone? I have installed ADB and everything, and so I can use that IF someone can tell me exactly what I need to do (I have the necessary SBF files). Otherwise, is there something like a ROM that is stock that I can install just using recovery mode?

Thanks so much!!

[HTC EVO 3D] netstat_EVO:
More specifics on your situation?

Already on ICS? or just trying to weigh the options?

If already on ICS, did you apply the VM firmware "upgrade"?

If already on ICS, and did

not

apply VM firmware, then my experience is relevant.

I am using CWM recovery and was able to restore back to my previous GB rom after trying icsense-deck-0.1.

have since gone to ZR-ICSense and see no good reason to go back :)

Edit: Crap, I just now noticed that your question was only about restoring data... Sorry.

Ok, that taken into consideration I

was

able to restore most apps and data using Titanium Backup from my last nandroid of the GB rom I was running.

Hope this is more helpful now lol.

Vibration while typing is not loud, however the vibration while receiving texts is quite loud... Is it just my phone or do others notice this as well?

I realize that "too loud" is relative, however my old phone didn't make any noise while vibrating...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
yeah it's ridiculous. Maybe someone will find where the vibration intensity settings (if they exist) are buried.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig0r:
Mine's fine. I mean, I'll hear it if it's sitting on a hard surface like my desk, but if it's in my pocket, I feel the vibration but definitely don't hear it. The vibration on my DHD was audible. Not loud enough to be worried about it, but the One X is definitely quieter.

As for vibration intensity, we'll almost certainly get a mod to adjust this.

There has to be some buried settings... The key vibration is nice and mellow... No reason we shouldn't be able to lighten up the notification buzz.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tom_m:
Only indoors where my signal is on and off intermittently and weak. I believe this to be associated with a general issue that a few people I see are having. Something about the signal on the One X on AT&T is REALLY off. Really fishy. Some people see this issue when using WiFi...And when they turn everything off. Then turn on airplane mode and then off and turn mobile network back on...It seems to connect again and stay connected.

For me, it's just on/off constantly. It never holds down a mobile data connection (indoors).

However. Going outside I can use the speedtest.net app without those network errors. Over and over no problem. So I'm not sure this is a problem with the speedtest app, I think it's a general issue with the One X on AT&T and signal. Something is really whack and I can't figure it out. I'm trying to check with other people and look for all information my phone gives me. It's just terrible. My phone is completely useless inside. I'm going to go outside and test around a bit. If this doesn't clear up I'll have to return everything to AT&T I guess and stick with Sprint :mad: Slower speed due to no LTE but least I can use the damn thing. I REALLY want the AT&T version though and the LTE. I just wish they would fix their crap so it would be consistent.

edit -- OH and one more thing. Your icons up top for 4G/LTE and signal bars...They're utterly useless and meaningless. You can't trust them. If you watch the settings > networks menu where you can turn things on/off you'll see the gray text under the mobile network telling you about its status and it'll just keep flipping from connected to connecting... off on off on all day long. but your icons up top could very well bit lit up like you're connected. you're not. that's why you get network errors in the speedtest app. during the middle of the test AT&T is dropping your connection.

when getting e-mail and loading web pages, this issue will not be very apparent because pages load various assets and when you are actually connected the speed is decent. the browser will keep loading and waiting so it'll just look "slow" to you. it's likely not even slow. it's just on and off all the time. e-mail is small and comes in burst like i'll say, bad language but whatever. the speedtest is noticeable because it's a constant thing. try streaming a video or music and i bet you'll see it be more apparent but even then if you have enough buffer you still may not see the issue. it's super spotty service. very angry.
[HTC One S] Bricolo_fr:
Hi,

I've got an HTC One S since a few weeks (got it with the 1.57 FW I think). It's a stock one, not from a carrier. No branding.

The battery life was great, 2 to 3 days with normal use.

But yesterday evening I proceeded to the OTA update and since then, trouble began :p

Battery life is much, much lower. After 12 hours standing on my desk in the office, I got 10% remaining!

Anytime I switch the screen ON, I see there is some data being sent (or received) because the "arrows" are full. If I check in system panel lite, there's always 1 or 2 kb/s of traffic.

Also, the phone is a bit warm, quite often.

Has anyone else noticed this? That's rather annoying :/
[HTC One S] foxywoxy:
Could be faulty? I have the same phone with no carrier or branding and not had any problems at all.
[HTC One S] Bricolo_fr:
Like faulty hardware? Seems unlikely to me since it worked well with 1.57. Also, sending data isn't hardware related
[HTC One S] Bricolo_fr:
Here are some details.

In Mobile usage, just for today (less than 24h)

"Media" has used 13MB of background data

"Android OS" has used 5MB, also background

Android OS gives no more details. Media is told to include "Download manager" "DRM protected content storage" "Media storage" and "Downloads"

This sounds like a lot of background data :/
