[HTC One X] rayford85:
try looking in the play store. there are several to choose from

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=reboot&c=apps
[HTC One X] Steve Stiffler:
I do appreciate your help but I was trying to know if there is any application that does "Without rooting the phone" :)
[HTC One X] rayford85:
look at the first app in the list dude. You just might have to actually READ the Apps description.:p other than that you have to root.
[HTC One X] Steve Stiffler:
This application does not actually reboot it just refreshes the phone..it's not even close to rebooting I am using this app from par three days it's basic function is to free up the space in RAM..try it out u'll know :)
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
Why do you even need to reboot your phone that much?
[HTC One X] Mixxxy:
You could Quick Boot if you wish. Can also reboot straight to recovery and bootloader. Unfortunately I can't link to it as I've only recently joined XDA.
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Quick Boot works on rooted phone only. He is asking for reboot app with no root access required.
[HTC One X] Steve Stiffler:
I dun reboot that much..Just once a day..but I dun want my power button to get depressed because I have to rely on unlocking on the same button..which gets pressed quite a lot of times...

Also if you could suggest me some widgets or apps that can help me to lock my phone..I used extended controls which was not a great experience because when I unlocked the screen remained black till I switched on to some other application ..
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
This is my favorite, screen off and lock

I am using this application..

Check this app as I posted this earlier and asked if this does any harm to proximity sensor..

Dude I searched the google play before posting I wanted to know if there is something I missed nothing else if you can't write anything useful,why waste time typing unnecessarily :)
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
I don't think it will harm the proximity sensor, it just that I don't like to see a red light on the proximity sensor light up when using this app as I guess it use more battery...and that's maybe the reason why they have a time-out to kill the app after certain time. Once the app is killed, you still need to press power on. Anyhow, this is my personal opinion only, nothing against the app; I maybe wrong.
[HTC One X] Steve Stiffler:
Thanks :) tell me since when are you using this phone??do you find your power button by any chance pressed inside even a little??Also I dun think that it uses much battery as the Statistics posted by the App developer state..it would be great if someone would throw some light on it though..
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Since Apr 3rd, two days after the HOX officially launched in my country. Do not really notice that, maybe because I seldom use the power button as my device is rooted, using quick boot for reboot, reboot to bootloader & recovery, swipe to power on and so on.
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
Why are you even rebooting once a day? It isn't necessary and will solve all of your problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamcar:
ok when you are making a ROM and it gets stuck in a boot loop people have said the best way to try and fix it is to use logcat. but how do i use it when its booting? i know how to use it when its booted

never mind i got it to work while booting but it moves to fast i cant read it or anything is there away to save it to a file or something?

[HTC Desire S] usmanxhmed:
I bought my used Desire S and it was rooted with revolutionary so i could not get OTA from 2.3.3 beyond. I read some threads but nobody was telling me which RUU i needed as my phone was unbranded and i was not sure about its origin. I managed to bring back the official stock Rom and original radios, hboot and downloaded and installed 2.3.5 successfully.

Nobody could help but finally i managed to take the risk and it paid off thankfully.

It is the easiest and fastest way to unroot, remove superuser, revolutionary and to restore hboot back to normal and S-On again, to get official updates including ICS.

Download the attachment "usmanxhmed.rar", it has Android Flasher and FlashENGHBOOT.

Attach your phone to PC with USB cable, make sure you have HTC fastboot drivers installed.

Open Android Flasher and select bootloader and browse to the file FlashENGHBOOT which you downloaded in file "usmanxhmed.rar", boot phone into fastboot and click flash.

It will remove REVOLUTIONARY **** from the phone.

Now download your specific RUU from this link http://www.filefactory.com/f/c64d333a2755a421/ i was unsure which is my RUU for the phone as i bought it second hand, my phone was unbranded, i matched the software version and radio version in my software information of the phone and downloaded the specific RUU.

After flashing the RUU my Desire S became factory fresh and back to S - ON and updated my phone with Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3 and hopefully/ may be i will get ICS in future as well
[HTC Desire S] ttocs99:
Good guide cheif :thumbup:
[HTC Desire S] usmanxhmed:
Thanks ttocs99 :)
[HTC Desire S] dan_alexandre:
Quick question, this might not be the best spot for it but it is somewhat related.

My desire s is branded/locked to vodafone portugal, so i have no specific RUU in that list. What will happen if i use Europe one? Or UK's Vodafone?

Best Regards,

Daniel
[HTC Desire S] gutaalta:
Vodafone UK !

I have a Desire S from Vodafone Germany and it works perfect with the Vodafone UK RUU.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] HopelesRomantc91:
After upgrading to ICS, I noticed that sometimes my phone will just stop playing audio from video until I restart my phone. This includes flash videos, YouTube app, and all video files I can find. This is inconvenient, and made 10 times worse by the fact that I have that glitch where EVERY time I restart my phone it says it's optimizing applications and literally takes minutes to start up. Any fixes for this audio issue?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] SumDumGoy:
I'm running stock ICS right now and I have the same issue. I couldn't find a way to disable the "optimizing apps" on every restart using stock options.

I couldn't find a fix for the audio cut out either, but from my experience as long as I restart the phone every day I don't seem to ever run into the issue, so I have just made it a habit to restart my phone every morning.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ideaLduK:
Looks like a bad flash. Try runnkng your carrier RUU then updating ics with ota. Keep me on touch

Sent from my HTC Raider 4G LTE running ICS.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
If you guys read the general thread you would see that the optimizing at startup is an HTC bug and a deodexed Rom makes it go away...

The audio disappearing on video is something new...

Maybe if you get away from stock... It'll stop?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdjy:
hi,

i have brand new hd2 tmobile. the phone stuck on the tmobile logo and didn't start-up.. i tried to flash the original tmobile stock ROM ** i got it from tmobile website** but it stuck in the flashing and refused to finish flashing.

i tried to install the ROM from the sd card but it always freezes in the radio flashing process.

i installed hspl3. now i have 2.8.hspl and tried to install the original stock ROM again and cocked roms through RRU.exe flashing and the SD card but no luck.

Also i did task29. it wiped out every thing yet no luck .

btw i try to flash radio 2.10.50.x

all the radios i did were 50

i use the reset button every time coz the phone wont respond unless i use it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Surgeman:
Bricked HD2

Make sure it's in bootloader and flash 2.08 HSPL to it via HD Tool Kit...Let it reboot,and pull the battery..Let it sit for 30 seconds..But the battery back in,and flash radio for Leo 2.15.50.14.It should flash the radio with no problems then.Best of luck with it.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
I had that problem before. take the image and name it LEOIMG.nbh

put it on the root of the sd card than go into bootlaoder and follow direction to get it to work than pull battery.
[HTC One X] endeavoru:
Ok i bought my One X 2 days ago from a normal phone store. He doesn't give warranties, also i think there's no HTC repair centers here in my country.

The problem is, the screen was flex I read that on another thread that i should turn the phone off and press on it a bit hard to make it stable again. But this didnt work out, the phone became more flex on top. The other problem is that an orange tint/hue or whatever appeared on the upper side of the screen.

When i press a bit hard on the screen on top, the orange tint disapears. Anyone knows why this is happening and how am i able to fix this.... Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexsamaM:
Do you use any of the color tweaks above?

VC=voodoo color;

CM=cm color;

SC=stock color;

Found today some really cool settings for VC color but when I lock the phone a green tint appears.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khiyatesh:
yup it will appear if green bar value is less then -27(for almost all the phone?)....check the minimum value of green bar till where that green tint appears...i guess it should be -27....check it out...and yup voodoo color is cool... :D

edit:green value should be more then -25 as far as my cell is concerned...but on cm7 i had -50 without any tint or something...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screamwork:

- Less compliment.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingo64:

[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Just wondering if all the new ICS roms have full dual core support for the EVO 3d.

Not sure how you test this. Maybe some could explain.

Please Advise.

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] HTC Reseller:
No, they don't. If you want to enable dual core support just delete mpdesicion from System and edit a file(i don't remember the name). Also, after you booted on the ROM you can download Quadrant Advanced and make a custom Bench, select CPU and you will see if both cores are availables.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Yes I want to do this. Thanks.

.
[HTC EVO 3D] netwokz:
Here you go zcink, check out this thread. Should be the info you are looking for.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
This link was very useful and helpful to me. I'm going to print it out and do it to any rom I flash.

Just one more question on this.

Is this also what you would do for GingerBread roms also?

update:

found the answer here:
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
OK I'm still learning Android.

What has been sort of puzzling to me now suddenly makes sense.

In most of the ICS threads I've been following, people are raving about how good the battery life is. People saying I watched 30 movies, made 118 phone calls and my battery is still 97% charged. Ok I'm exaggerating but anyhow making some unbelievable claims about battery life in ICS.

From what I've reading here at XDA and other forums, ICS taps more resources and uses more memory than GB did to run apps. So why so much better battery life?

Could it be that ICS not being dual core support unless you make it so is only using half the power of the CPU? Sort of like putting a 2 bbl carburetor on a Corvette engine where a 4 bbl would unleash the beast but use more gas?
[HTC EVO 3D] scariola:
Latest ics releases have finally fixed the cpu1 always online. System tuner pro can show you current states on CPU states. Again system tuner pro can also FORCE dual core CPU always on.

Better battery life comes from the 3.0 kernel which has better power management, amongst other things.

The second CPU kicks on as needed unless you force it always on, which drains more battery.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
So it would seem by getting system tuner Pro you could turn this feature on and off like a switch.

When you want both cores running for maximum performance just turn it on in system tuner Pro, then turn if off when your done with it?

That would be alot better and easier than editing file commands.
[HTC EVO 3D] scariola:
Something like that. System tuner pro can force dual core by init.d script or after boot completed. It has boot settings, which you choose. A reboot is needed after changing I believe.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Interesting. Well its fun learning all this.

Maybe down the road as things get fully developed someone will come out with an app or widget. One where you just click it and turns on both cores on the fly. Call it TurboThruster or something like that. The icon could be flames shooting out of a tailpipe.

As phones develop they'll have quad core and more and more..........
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
I've been running ZR3dX (CDMA ICS ROM) which turns on dual core by default. My battery life is still amazing, especially with the screen off. One of the power management things it does is control the radios better too.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nikkitpt:
phone config

Sapphire unkown 32A eng s-off h

hboot- 1.33.2010

cpld-13

radio-2.22.23.02

to make a long story short, i tried flashing a new spl and radio only to find the spl and not radio 3.22. so in mid panic i flashed the current spl to i wouldn't brick it. now it won't really load the os...or any for that matter.

i tried to start over and load new hboots and radio through fast boot but my computer won't recognize my phone in fast boot. the only way it sees it is in recovery mode when i hit usb toggle.

any help at this point would be greatly appreciated...ive been up all night!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] 5[Strogino]:
You did not write ModelID - it is very important!!!

Please write first 5 strings from SPL-info with all symbols.

Does your phone has 3.5" audiojack? If yes, then it is MyTouch 3G v1.2

You must solve problem with drivers. In fastboot-mode phone must be operated from PC. To check, you can simply run:

fastboot devices

You will see serial number. Additionally, text "fastboot" will change to "fastboot usb" on screen, when you are connecting phone to PC.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Conclusion:
My friend has given me his Samsung Galaxy Ace to root it and use a custom ROM, but which Launcher allows me to change the name of the app so it's easy for him to know which app is what

P.S - What's the best Chinese Handwriting app that he could use?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -RDR-:
dude seriously isnt this the 3rd thread in which u r asking the same question ?:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Conclusion:
This is the first topic, if you've read it carefully you will see the difference
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] :
Most custom launchers allow you to change the name of an app on the home screen.

ADW Launcher (Google Play)

Holo Launcher(XDA)

are a couple of ones. (holo launcher can be laggy for some people, never lagged for me though.)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Requills:
Hey fam,

I'm looking to buy a new phone to replace my droid charge. The DC has been really pissing me off lately: lag, massive battery drain, you name it. Anyways I want to buy a new phone since one of the lines in my family plan is up for an upgrade.

My first question is-- How reliable is the Gnex? My DC is the first android device I've owned, and to be honest I've debated going back to an iPhone for some more reliability.

Second question-- When/where should I buy a Gnex? I checked online retailers and I could get one now for $150, but that's a little much for me. I'd be willing to buy a refurb if that is recommended.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
i bought mine on released day. for me, i made a wrong decision.

bad battery life

too plastic and feel too light, making it feel cheap.

not much of change from gingerbread

the camera senor isnt that great on low light, but on a sunny day, it's awesome.

if i can return my gn now, i will jump to 4s. but i cant, so, i am waiting for iphone 5.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
The Verizon version is not good, the GSM version is a lot better.

My battery lasts a whole day with 4.5 hours screen on time.

It is made of plastic but it doesn't feel low quality.

A HUGE difference over gingerbread.

Camera is fine.

Try use one before you buy and see what you think.

I wouldn't swap it for any other phone.

Development is unrivalled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
5 hours screen on time for me, you had the CDMA version which isn't as good on battery.

I like the plastic, I hate having a heavy phone, such as the iPhone. Its screen is 3.5 inches, yet it feels like a brick. Also, the lighter, the less damage is done when dropped.

HUGE change from Gingerbread, what are you on? Froyo to GB wasn't a big change, GB to ICS is HUGE. Seriously.

This is subjective, overall phone cameras aren't good on low light situations.

TL;DR: Get it. Then flash AOKP+Franco, and you'l be teleported to a new world. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.m0x:
This is the best phone on the market right now. I'm not giving it up until there is a new nexus.

Mind you I'm on gsm version.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Some members have problems with the Verizon version, which is the one the OP would be getting.

Not everyone is an iTroll though, and not everyone has problems with their Verizon version. You have to be legally blind to not see "much of a change" from gingerbread.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] SkinsFan82:
I had a functioning version of the WSJ tablet app on my AT&T Galaxy Note before I had to do a hard reset on my phone.

Apparently, the WSJ tablet app in the Google Marketplace is no longer compatible with the Galaxy Note.

I was wondering if someone had created an APK file of the WSJ tablet app (black app logo) that would work with the Galaxy Note?

I tried using the APK version that has been created for the Galaxy Tab, but it did not work properly.

I appreciate any help that members of the forum may be able to provide.

Thank you for your time, and have a great day.

When I try to turn on my Kindle Fire lately the power button is green for a few seconds and then it goes from bright orange to dull orange and just sits there, has anyone else run into this problem? I can't do anything it it as I can't even get it to boot up? Have I just drained the battery and need to let it charge or am I screwed?

Thanks in advance.

[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
I cant tell you how frustrated I am with this phone! I HATE IT! Ughhh.....

Sorry had to get that out.

Anyways I have been trying to configure some tweaks this past eekend with my phone. I used the Smurf tweak pack and really liked it. The only problem I didnt really know how to configure the settings optimally. Basically Im running into the problem where whenever I reboot my phone it is fast as lightning, then as time goes on throughout the day it gets soooooo slow and unusable. The only way to fix it is a reboot. Any way to fix this, maybe I should try another tweak?
[LG Revolution] Smiller5331:
Settings

What settings did you use on your revo for the speed and heap size? I originally had the same problem as you after using the script, however after following the advice of another user on here, I changed my speed size to "light speed" and my heap size to 128 mb. My phone has since been running very smoothly with these settings.

Also, have you tried any other scripts like thunderbolt? That is another script that I really like and has made my phone much better.
[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
Hmmm I did the Ludicrous speed with a 64mb threshold! I will try and change the settings. Should I wipe data before changing the settings?
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
You don't have to. Can't hurt and it would give a baseline to know exactly what settings work. I do a cwm backup then wipe then do the dew. but remember every phone is different. my wifes phone likes light speed and 128. my revo likes ridiculous, iirc the one above light speed, and 64. :confused:
[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
I dont why I dont use nandroid backups, it would save me so much time! Thanks for the advice, I will try another setting
[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
How do I know if my sd is EXT 4 formatted?
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
I've always said no. Iirc, I read somewhere that for ics everything had to be ext4 and the Revo wasn't. Idk I could be wrong ;) either way I said no and it set the default sd read speed to the 4XXX. At least that's what ROM toolbox says :D it just saved me from having to set it manually.
