[Motorola Photon 4G] Steve GadFly:
Before posting here, I looked extensively for someone with a similar issue reported and came up empty. I also tried PPCGeeks a couple days ago and got no response. I thought I'd run this issue by the real experts before taking my phone to Sprint "experts" so that they can swap it out. Here are the details:

My Photon 4G has been rooted since right after I got it about 8 months ago and has had no problems like this until now. The only app that has updated in the last couple days is Busybox and that was the night before this all happened. My battery died and the phone did a forced shut-down that night. I plugged it in, powered it up, and let it charge all night & then noticed the problem the next morning.

I'm using DejaOffice for my calendar and contacts (contacts are also synced to the native phone list) and I use companionlink to sync everything from my desktop (Windows Vista). When I looked this morning, everything in DejaOffice was purged including my preferences (screen color, alarm defaults, etc.). I re-synced everything, powered off and then back on, and had the same problem with everything being gone.

Next, I tried purging DejaOffice data and un-installing it, re-installing it, re-syncing and then powered off/on and once again everything was gone. Finally, I did a factory reset on the whole phone (and forgot to backup my voicemails in the process...grrrrr), re-installed DejaOffice, synced, and had the same problem once I power-cycled.

One more thing to note is that before doing any of this, I attempted a backup with "My Backup Root" and got a message that my phone was no longer rooted.

It seems like the internal memory on my phone is being wiped every time it's shut down. I know the quick fix is to not shut the phone down however I'd like to get to the bottom of this and see if I need to get my phone replaced.

Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Steve GadFly:
<bump> and update:

I noticed that my "webtop version" is "unavailable"...not sure if that makes a difference to my problem. Also, when this problem first presented itself, I noticed it because the ringtone that I usually use (which was stored on the phone's internal memory of course) was gone.

Once again...any help or replies would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
Hello Every body, I am new on this forum forgive me if I break any rule by creating this thread but I really need your help. So getting to the Point I have just bought Lg Optimus 3d SU-760.

I know I should not have bought this phone not a lot of support Etc. but I bought it real cheap so I think it's worth the trouble.

It is a Korean Device with a lot of Korean apps and dialer and keyboard. I don't need. Now let me tell you about it's installed software and every thing.

I just updated it with LG Official Update tool it's running

Android Version: 2.3.5

Baseband Version: L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1042.00

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7

Build Number: GRJ90

Software Version: LGSU760-V20f-Mar-22-2012

Now my biggest issue with this phone is it's battery timing. I have read all the threads I can find in this forum and have came up with this conclusion.

I should install this kernel by iBluemind BlueKernel v1.1.0+ here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1565432

And then this rom XBSA V20F SU760 here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1664768

I already have installed Clockwork Recovery Mod and it's running fine. This is my first android phone I have used iPhone and Nokia phones before this one so I need your advice and suggestions any thing.

I believe I have explained my Phone and Situation clearly now coming to the actual Question Do I have any other choice other Than Bluekernel and XBSA rom. Can I install any other rom than this like The Promethius, ThiaiZO3D, CyanogenMod 7.2 or any other or should I just go with XBSA. Because users report lag in XBSA rom in it's thread.

Thank you, God Bless you all.
[LG Optimus 3D] Bdadd34:
I think you can run prometheus 20f rom and use kernel with no "+". Give it a try..worst that should happen is no signal...:D
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
Okay thank you very much for the reply sir @Bdadd34 I'll try but it looks like it's only for P920. Lg Su760 is a three button phone are you sure it won't create any trouble like brick my phone or any thing
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
One more thing I wanted to ask is can I use Bluekernel as kernel and Promethius Project V1.4 as rom or should I use the Stock.zip file without the plus with this rom?
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
Hello Anyone please I really need your help please
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Last time i tried a p920 rom in su760 it had problems. If you use su760 xbsall rom set cpu min 300
[LG Optimus 3D] Bdadd34:
Thanks xbsall...I thought there was just +kernel and non + kernel phones..didn't know Korean model was incompatible..sorry for bad advice..
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
Thank you very much sir, I am using this Rom for past week now @xbsall thank you again

So there isn't any other rom available right
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
I did get Promethius to work after installing the rom I installed Bluekernel and every thing started working, buttons and internal sd go mounted in the phone too. Network, Wifi three buttons every thing worked

Only I could not use USB mass storage option, whenever I use USB Mass storage my PC asks me that the memory card is not installed and I need to format.

If I press ye it shows memory card has only 10 Mb space..

If this issue can be resolved Promethis and Thaiz both can be used easily
[LG Optimus 3D] cjayceguerra:
you can try all existing p920 rom to out su760 as i did with mine, just use bluekernel for su760,everything works, card mounted properly and gsm, wifi, BT also works the only bug that i noticed is the camera is inverted, i hope somebody can fixed that problem.
[LG Optimus 3D] saaqirajput:
Which version are you exactly talking about. Yes they work except camera as you say but usb Cable Mass Storage Option it does not mount in PC. External card mounts but internal does not

So can you please tell me what version are you using, I have tried Promethius and Thaiz and many others

Cyanogen does not work at if I install Bluekernel it stops on boot screen. And if I keep original kernel Neither Internal SD mounts nor the Buttons are fixed back button serves as Search
[HTC One X] ahfarouk:
Hi,

I have Htc one x, and recently changed to CM9, but I am missing the dialer search function that was in sense !

for example: if I have a contact with name as "Mr Johan roman" I can find it by typing in the dialer in sense "m" then "o" then "man" , it will appear in the list of results, but in CM9 it won't.

When I search using CM9 dialer, I can only search by typing the first letters only, I can't search using middle letters or so , is there any fix or a setting in CM9 to give me the same behavior in searching as sense ?

Thanks for help.
[HTC One X] timlambo:
I think its a sense exclusive feature and as far as I know there is no such setting in cm9. I don't think there is a fix for that, maybe if we could use the phone dailer apk from sense, but I think its dependent from Rosie(sense launcher).
[HTC One X] ahfarouk:
Thanks for your reply, I guessed so too.

I tried go contacts dialer and it offers the same features also the miui dialer, I just wished CM9 dialer has it.
[HTC One X] timlambo:
I'm going to try Renovate now. Seems like he kept some sense parts. Once my download finishes I will try and install the dailer. Hopefully it will work. Will report back then. I'm currently using AOKP 1.1 and miss the camera and gaming. :D

Here is the link to that rom if you're interested.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1705334
[HTC One X] timlambo:
I just tested that rom in previous post. It does have the sense dailer with other launcher, think it's a nova one. You still have all the nice goodies without sense launcher, but all other(well most of them) sense stuff also present, Lockscreen, camera, setup ect.
[HTC One X] ahfarouk:
I checked it , it looks good, but the need to unlock before call answering is a nasty bug, I will wait until this is fixed.

I'm running windows xp and I want to use my laptop as a wifi hotspot so I can connect my SGS3 to it. I have tried many times and failed on countless tutorials/videos.

I am using a 3G Dongle as my main source of internet on the laptop and my network connections are now a mess :o

Anyone any help on this or how to set it up PROPERLY? Or is my laptop not capable of it. It is a Dell Inspirion 1300 with built in wifi card.

It's a fun read.
[Galaxy S III General] hawkeye2188:
Skimmed the article, got a few chuckles out of the comments though. I very rarely venture over to BGR just because of how much of an Apple stench their journalists have.
[Galaxy S III General] A_Kuma:
Pretty sure android has all those features, and has had them for some time now
[Galaxy S III General] Oomahey:
ROFLMAOSTFH! That was great! Haven't laughed that much lately! That was truly cringe worthy. *shudder*

Android is four steps behind iOS, is it? More like iOS is playing catch-up from being four furlongs behind. :-p

I'm still chuckling!! :D
[Galaxy S III General] kulzboy:
seems like BGR will be losing a lot of readers after this based on their comment section
[Galaxy S III General] ale0crysis:

[Galaxy S III General] rovex:
Its slow going, but people ARE getting bored of Apple. All but one of my iOS owning friends has moved to something else, mostly Android, one Blackberry, even the fanboi Gadgets review sites are getting critical, slowly, the same old design is looking old, uninspiring and boring.

This article is pure fanboi drivel. Some people dont even try to hide it any more, its embarrassing for them, really, and its nice to see the vast majority of the comments are calling him out on it.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
Well that article proves that IOS users are paying close attention to the insane growth of android, its OS and how IOS compares to it. Bgr is scared ****less.
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
Wow that was a pretty laughable article, I have both Android and iOS guess which I find myself using more daily...give ya a hint its a "Dairy Product" as a company liked to point out yesterday.
[Galaxy S III General] Funkym0nkey:
Recognise the linkbaits people. Stop linking :p
[Galaxy S III General] ExodusC:
That's true, I hate offering hits to these websites to read their laughable and biased articles.

Still, judging by all the people in the comments section saying they're taking BGR off their news feeds, it seems like this article might have done more bad than good for their hits in the long run.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
Looking at the new features just makes me think "wow was it really that limited before?"...

That's why you link to Google's cached version. Keeps all the traffic off their site.

Lol it still is, and always will be.

I guess that is a prime example of Cognitive Dissonance.

It can't be what should not be: Apple is a Copy+Paste company, which didn't came up with a single innovation for their new OS.
[Galaxy S III General] akarol:
I don't know why but I get so worked-up when I read garbage like this. Ugh!!!
[Galaxy S III General] rovex:
Frankly all these features they added are just basic essentials. Im half expecting them to say that the iPhone will finally be able to make calls in iOS7 (a new innovation no doubt!).

Completely stunned at how ridiculous that article was. Just absolutely absurd. I seriously thought that it was some kind of joke. Hard to believe that there really are people that think that way. Maybe they just like living inside Apple's bubble because they aren't intelligent enough to think on their own.
[Galaxy S III General] jbadboy2007:
Also those new nav buttons don't those look familiar hmm maybe stolen from the galaxy nexus. Bgr what a joke.

The whole article is a complete joke, it does not really explain why iOS 6 will be better than Android, it performs ZERO comparisons, the author just sounds like a sad lad, who is cuddled up with his phone, just like a religious nut jobs who do not see other sides to an argument / story!

"Ability to use a song as an alarm"

LOL. WOW. Maybe Doc Brown would be astonished by this back in 1956.

"Ability to upload photos from Safari to websites"

Dispensing from a file system must've seemed really smart at some point. That is until they realized that files exist elsewhere I guess. My Dell Axim could do this, what a joke.

"Custom vibration for alerts"

Galaxy S3 much?

"Decline an incoming call with a pre-written text message"

I believe even my old Sony Ericsonn did this.

Apart from 3D Maps and some location based services, iOS 6 is basically an update to add the functionality of many old phones to their new magic regtangular amazing glass thing.

Needless to say I noticed a bias pattern, always bashing Android and praising Apple/iOS.

[Galaxy S III General] bortak:
A series of great responses guys! Keep 'em coming ;)

Except from you... nobody likes you... And your post is just stupid.
[Galaxy S III General] doeboy711:
For one, you got it worng. We are talking about android vs apple, not the iPhone ? vs samsung. So if you want to call us something, it would be android fanboys. From this article, mostly all the updates that he posted, android already does. We are pointing out facts and laughing at the article. He is prasing the iOS6 for stuff android has been able to do for a long time like a custom song as an alarm lol.

I have nothing against apple. They produce great stuff for the below average to average user who wants something simple to use. Android is geared for those who like to personalize your device and be unique.
[Galaxy S III General] Vibrant03:
I only hate apple because they go after android oem's over stupid patents which diminishes the good functionality and user experience of a phone.. I don't really care that much about apple to celebrate how much of a pathetic OS they are making and deceive people of their revolutionary features.. LoL

obviously I'm not an iphone user for a reason.. Apple products are good looking nevertheless
[Galaxy S III General] anfozy:
"Decline an incoming call with a pre-written text message letting the caller know you’ll message them in a few minutes"

....because my Nokia never had this feature...

I'm just waiting for the day apple says they got Widgets before android

Also engadget and phonearena..

I think they get free apple products or something.. Lol
[Galaxy S III General] alchemist316:
I must admit this is funny but also the mass buyers of the iPhone hear update and new maps etc that is enough for them .. I cannot compare these devices because the community speaks for itself the amount of intelligent people in the Android community is amazing , not saying apple people are morons but they from my experience don't know much on.the device they pay 1000$ or don't feed there kids for like in.the Philippines story

But android will always be ahead of the game not so much because google but the community that which keeps these devices going long after normal users give them up .
[Galaxy S III General] Tomatoes8:
Wow! This reply was even more pointless and stupid than that article. I have to applaud you. Well done! I didn't think that it was possible.
[Galaxy S III General] monoespacial:
Speaking of which... i still have engadget and... TechCrunch *shudder* on my bookmarks. Are there any objective tech sites out there? I get the impression I have to go to a blog specifically about Android to get news that don't praise anything Apple does as the best thing that has ever happened.
[Galaxy S III General] kmoore11:
I find Engadget better than most. They have certain writers who LOVE their Apple, but they give the top Android devices a decent amount of love too.
[Galaxy S III General] Sir-Awesome:
The comments were funny.

People lashing out on BGR.
[Galaxy S III General] djkinetic:
Engadget is for the most part pretty objective.
[Galaxy S III General] simollie:
I think Apple plays favoritism a lot. If a journalist/blogger doesn't say nice things about Apple product, they fall on the wrong side of Apple and are denied access to Apple's next big event etc. As tech journalist few of them can afford that, given the popularity of Apple products.

But that kind of bully can only last for a while. Eventually, people will find out what's real and what's BS. and the journalist/blogger will find out falling on the wrong side of readers is MUCH worse. I think we are seeing one happening right in front of our eyes.
[Galaxy S III General] Tomatoes8:
Techradar, pocketnow, and mobilesyrup are good. Pocketnow and Endgadget are okay but I strongly disagree with their GS3 reviews. I think they gave their GS3 reviews to their biggest HTC fanboys. I don't mind Phonearena either but the Verge are the biggest Apple fanboys ever.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
I like Pocketnow, I think Brandon Menaman ( not sure how u spell his last name) usually does a great job on reviewing phones, but I thought his S3 review had many negative points that I disagree with.
[Galaxy S III General] Moh_Jay:
Gsmarena ftw!

"All this knowledge is giving me a major brainer!"
[Galaxy S III General] Tomatoes8:
Yup. The keyboard part especially. The keyboard on the iPhone 4s and Xperia S are way better than the keyboard on my HTC One X. It's not even responsive on mine and he says it is way better than the GS3 one? Not a chance. I hope so at least because I haven't tested the GS3 keyboard for more than a few minutes yet. Lol
[Galaxy S III General] :
I didn't like the Engadget SGS3 review. Seems to me like it was written in 12-hours. But the lates review I read for Asus Padfone was very well done. I think Richard Lai did that review, and I enjoyed reading that.

GSMarena / Anandtech are usually very good in terms of review.

Apple fans seem to close their minds to the obvious fact that Android have had some of these features for years. Most notably when the notification drop down was introduced in iOS.
[Galaxy S III General] CreekDirt:
This.

If one side of the Android vs iOS war stops taking the bait then the other side can pat themselves on the back while they ignorantly try to make themselves feel better about their OS.

There is a reason that they tell you not to feed the bears...because the bears won't stop coming back.
