[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaisah:
I too have this ram problem. I like that the phone is doing its best to keep the ram full for multitasking purposes but i hate when it lags when i go back to the home screen. Also sometimes i close an app to do something else, say texting, then go back and it has to re-open the app because android killed it to free up space. Couldnt it just cache it if it needs space instead of fully closing it?

I heard there was an update that fixed this ram issue but its not showing up for my phone.

In some ways i miss my galaxy s2 :/
[HTC Sensation] samklee:
I just posted a -3 to -5mA drain with energy ics and bricked kernel @ 192 - 1.4mhz badass. Even saw -2 sporadically.

Was wondering if there are other combos out there worth exploring?
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
I don't think that someone can form an objective opinion on this. Battery drain just takes too many variables, from rom and kernel, to every day use, to battery age, to each and every app you have installed, etc.

Personally I get very good battery life with my config (see sig), usually my battery lasts ~18-24 hours with 2 to 4 hours of sreen on.

However battery dain is the definition of YMMV :P
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I've been reading through the general forum, I was actually heading to the market place, lol. I came across the number one topic which was the "How to apply for Recognized Contributor" status, So had a look see, and I gotta say, I've seen no recognized contributors in our forum (odd right?). Now I was gonna do some recommendations of a few people that deserve the status, imo, but apparently the individual has to agree to want the status, so do you think there's a few members here that deserve the status? From the requirements and what not, IMO, the following deserve the status:

glacierguy (in a few months...)

SilentbtDeadly - Approved

Double0EK - So modest, lol

ziggy46 (More like recognized dev, after all he is a part of team nightmare, same for Eclipze) - Approved

mrmako777 <imo this guy too. (Soon...)

Just IMO.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
i agree with the list, the guys above me deserved it for a long time.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Exactly why I started the thread, hehe.:D
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
nice :p

also, i started making a rom last night and cant decide on a name. i was thinking "Black Ice" <--- you can probably figure out the theme
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
I think hasoon also the deserves this as well, but ya list looks about right
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
you haven't seen any in our forum yet...........:D lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Contrast based theme? Name sounds pretty sweet, using rosy or nova launcher? I'm curious :D :p
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Hasoon is already a recognized dev :p
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I thought you were a recognized dev, lol my bad:rolleyes:
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
i wish lol, they said i need a little more to prove myself as a dev.....but they said that a while back and i havnt sent them my bliss port yet so i could get it i dunno
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
i send screenshots when i work on the rom more later.

and im using trebuchet <--- themed trebuchet :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
we have a crapload of senselss roms lol. infact i think there are more sensless roms than roms with sense
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
well mines gonna be different... :D

and i prefer aosp android over sense, then only reason i bought this phone is because of whats under the hood
[HTC Amaze 4G] nguyendqh:
*sad face...Am I the only one that likes Sense around here?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Go for it dude...I think you deserve it, as I mentioned.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fuego77:
Yes. It just slows down my phone :D go away sense!!! Lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I like sense as well, so don't get all mushy in here, lol.

But vanilla is pretty sweet as well, but the option to have both is even sweeter :D.

Looking forward to seeing the screens then soon enough the rom ziggy. :cool:

[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Appreciate the kind words... Whiskey103 nominated me back when 4ext came out, but i had infraction that doesn't expire Till October :what:
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
The question is, are all you guys mentioned in the above list okay with being a recognized contributor? Since the mods do say that the person has to agree to be recognized as well. I'd recommend, but you're app with be greatly appreciated being submitted by the actual individuals. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Oh man, :(.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
I guess that's a key thing then, cause when they asked me if I wanted to be one they said I had one thing that will def make me one, I guess its me not having any infractions
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
I don't think I'm worthy of being a recognized contributor..but thanks for thinking about me... :blushing:
[HTC Amaze 4G] offrotor:
Sorry, My intentions were not to thread jack. I have taken every ones advice here positively. Every one of you guys in my mind should be on the list. Great work, Tons of help. I am great-full for all threads here.

All I meant was the ROMS here have character. Unlike the new .dev sites out there.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
ahh i see, you earn your first "thank" :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Make that first two ;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
You try to help as much as you can and you contribute your opinion/knowledge in just about every thread on here from what I've seen since I've joined this forum, that's what a recognized contributor's key areas are according to what I read, just my two cents.:p
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikef:
What mods are looking for are these things from least to most important.

Join date, number of posts, number of thanks, general helpful attitude, (guide or help) threads started. The only one that is a hard limit is the >3 months join date.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Every one of the names mentioned have accomplished and passed all requirements mentioned.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mikef:
Well, those are just the starting things the mods look at. I didn't mean to give the impression that it is a recipe to follow and you are automatically in. Next they look through your comments for patterns or traits of behavior. Are you helpful to less experienced users? Timely? Follow up on threads that need it? Do you consistently do more than necessary when people request assistance?

What have you done at XDA lately? None of these are exact and different mods may view them differently.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Lol

Trust me, that's why I'm surprised none of these guys are recognized contributors, this is probably the most helpful, always there, bug test things themselves to find a solution until it's resolved, make guides and pass on the knowledge kind of people, that's why I found it odd none of them are recognized, if you want, you can have a look see in the Q&A, Dev and even right here and see for yourself. There's a few other names I'd put on the list but they're not always here like the ones I mentioned, sometimes I wonder if any of these dudes even sleep, lol.
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Modesty keeps Dark Nightmare off the list? :screwy:
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
yea dark you deserve it too :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I prefer you guys to get it first, you've been here longer than me and have done so much, think it's time you're acknowledged, without you bunch, this community would be in dire straits, I doubt the amaze forum would even exist without you guys, would be just a bunch of noobs bashing each other about who bricked who's phone, lol.

Edit: darn thank limit
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Oh, so we can't have an infraction? I got the stupidest infraction ever from some mod way back when.. literally, posting in the wrong forums(but really, should have been fine!)

I wouldn't mind being a recognized contributor I suppose, it would make me feel like my 900+ posts are less being a post whore, and more legit!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Could you guys mentioned do me a favour and follow the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646309

To be recognized please, it will be greatly appreciated if you input an app on your very own behalf, it gets looked at my the mods much faster and would be more direct.

Thank you very much, I'll be spamming your thanks buttons when you do so. :D

[HTC One X] djurkash:
Hi folks,

strange issue, I bought the HTC One X locked to our network, from another guy. It was rooted via HTC dev with Mike's revolution over it. Everything was ok, except it was locked to a network I dont want to use with.

So I tried with HTCSimUnlock.com, purchased unlock code, received it instantly, and tried several times to insert it. But every time, display showed "unknown password" and no luck.

What I discovered when I took to record the procedure of unsuccessful inserting the code to claim for money back, was that imei number is missing, and actually in the settings imei showe as "unknown". The most interesting thing is that phone is working normally, with of course, sim card from the network that the phone is locked to.

I wrote to HTCSimUnlock.com ,and waiting for the answer, but I dont know should I do something, try to get the RUU back to stock rom, or hard reset, but am little afraid that phone could stop working...
[HTC One X] xl VipeR lx:
you could try the hard reset or RUU. whether the phone will stop working or not, i personally would try it, but you make your own choice. its a risk best thing i can suggest is play it safe, sell it on and get an unbranded one
[HTC One X] kruppin:
How could you buy a unlock code without IMEI in the first place? :p And secondly, if you reboot into bootloader and choose "show barcode" then I guess there is a IMEI? In that case, just try a new rom, or better yet a ruu.
[HTC One X] graemeg:
Download the appropriate Ruu and update it, this is a common issue on the S2 as well with ics during flashing, possibly someone updated it before you and it didnt go according to plan.
[HTC One X] xl VipeR lx:
first time i have come across IMEI known, i know the serial number came back unkown once, try the RUU, like i said i dont think it will mess up your phone because your restoring it to factory conditions obviously.
[HTC One X] djurkash:
no, imei was there in the first place, and after my attempt to unlock it, it dissapeared...

Then, I listened to you, and went to barcode, and imei was there normally.

Now, when I bootup, imei is here! Crazy staff...thanks...I really dont understand what happened...

Check the answer above, everything was fine before I tried to enter unlock code...

After I did what kruppin said, imei restored...wierd!

Thank you guys all for the help...now, only thing left is to ask for refund fron htcsimunlock.com :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r000li:
I have an Ainol Novo 7 Paladin tablet running android ICS 4.0.3 (rooted) that I want to use in one of my projects. And I need it to communicate with an arduino - one with FTDI or prolific PL2303 serial interface. Now I know that the Paladin should work as an USB host but I need something more. I need an high level Java library that can use this serial interface. I've worked with rxtx on a desktop machine before and that is the most complicated that I would like to get. The main reason is that I simply don't have enough knowledge to write myself an serial driver. I just need a simple character based two way communication.

I've found this http://slickdevlabs.com/slick-usb-2-serial-library/ but I don't think that it will work for me - at least the test application doesn't since the Paladin has an Ingenic JZ4770 CPU that isn't ARM based. And the second problem - I don't like the price.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r000li:
So I have made an USB OTG cable that is working - I can connect a mouse, keyboard, usb drive,... . Getting the serial interfaces working is another problem. When I plug the arduino with an PL-2303 controller to the tablet I get this (with dmesg):

USB AS HOST MODE
...
hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device number 82 using musb-hdrc
usb 1-1: device v067b p2303 is not supported
we are entering usb_match_id!!!!!

Simillar with the arduino with FTDI controller.

As far as I know android should have the drivers for the PL-2303 and FTDI chips included. So any ideas?

[HTC One S] Eumaniac:
Which roms did you try to flash? Did you flash the correct boot.img
[HTC One S] yo555yo:
thanks for your answer

Yes i flash [ROM][ICS] |June 13th| Energy™ -.¸¸.·´¯ Blue with the boot.img from the downloads

and [ROM] Ir2 1.78.401.2 - HTC One S Stock ROM DUO [Deodexed-Updated-Optimised]

When finish flasing from recovery reboot on fastboot and flash the boot.img and always is the same result.

I've tried to change to stock version of recovery and wipe all, reset to factory default then flash custom recovery and start the process but is the same.

when i whipe from stock or custom version of recovery there isn't any error message.

thankyou very much.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
you don't flash the boot.img from recovery--read OP
[HTC One S] yo555yo:
boot.img

I flash it from fastboot not installing a zip from recovery. I also try installing by script like on [ROM][ICS] |June 14th| Energy™ -.¸¸.·´¯ Blue that there is an script that makes the installation always from fastboot

Hi, find a way to make my htc one s woking again

This is the solution:

first i've to change my CID because my phone is from ORANGE spain and cannot flash a official RUU.

for this i follow this tutorial

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26516911#post26516911

Second flash stock recovery and lock boot

finally i've downloaded the last europe RUU, and execute it.The process works like a charm and in 15 or 20 minutes my one s was working again.

Now i have lock boot, stock recovery and unrooted phone and have one question:

for root my phone again have to unlock and flash a custom recovery, and then.....

should I need to put back again stock recovery and lock boot for working an official RUU?? or can work without problems with unloked boot an custom recovery?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One S] joemanbui:
Hey I have the exact same issue but running RUU didnt solve it. I have the US Tmobile Htc one s, S-off, supercid, hboot 1.14. I could load custom roms and mount usb storage only through recovery. my sd card does not show in fastboot. However, my phone never completely boots. It goes all the way to the lockscreen, allows me to pull the ring, then gets stuck on preparing phone storage. Flashing RUU does the same.

can anyone help?

i too have same prob tried all kinds of ruu's. been trying for 14 hours if you find soething please report how you did it
[HTC One S] marcy78:

anyone know of any gurus in the forum knows how to fix

I've been trying for a month

any rom to put loads and after a 10-20sec reset
[HTC One S] El_Svanto:
For you with sd-card problems, have you tried to flash stock recovery and then boot to bootloader and choose clear storage? It worked for me.

If you installed a RUU, ofcourse you already have stock recovery.
[HTC One S] DarkMattr:
I have the same problem, and decided to work on it today... I can say frustratingly i've not had ANY success in getting past the screen that pops up with the lock ring on the bottom...I've tried RUUs , the clear storage ... what is going on... I'm S-off as well so i really don't get why this would happen.
[HTC One S] qwerty warrior:
after following the steps for s-off it worked

the bootloader shows VLE PVT SHIP -S-OFF RL

CID-11111111

right after i followed the last step of the face palm method which was

i went into the bootloader confirmed everything then wen back to CM and it woudnt load

so i wiped everything and flashed a new version and an older 10.1 stable version which didnt work either

it would just freeze at the loading screen and restart

so i tried wiping everything and flash a stock RUU from HTC (t-mobile) 4.1.1

everything went off without a hitch

went to bootloader which showed a new version of the radio

tried to boot it up

and it did boot up but i coudnt go any further it just keeps saying

Preparing phone storage

then restarts

i tried wipe/data factory reset but it says cant mount SDCARD even though TWRP has no problem with wiping it
[HTC One S] xiheartjtag:
I have the same problem..

I have the exact same problem did you ever figure out a way of fixing it?
[HTC One S] xxgummyxx:
exact same problem except i didnt flash a custom rom. i flashed a radio following this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1998270 ( i did everything that I was instructed to do in this page) then my wifi didnt work so i reflash the RUU. now im stuck in preparing storage which then lead to bootloop

found the solution

Edit: Holy f*ckballs.

So, i didn't give up after all. Found a couple of other threads, and apparently yes, you have to relock, reset cid, and go s-on (fastboot oem writesecureflag 3) and then run the ruu.

I have a stock fresh tmous 4.1.1 one s now.

thank you thanks !!!!!!! two days without finding the solution and in the last paragraph that I will write opened the sky, put it in s-on, Greetings:D
[HTC One S] I_did_it_just_tmrrow:
For about some days, I flash an RUU when I was still s-off and boot-unlocked, then I flash twrp-recovery, make the adb thinks with mmcblk* (dd flash) and flash again a RUU. As you can read here.

But same boot loop problem with "Preparing Phone Storage...".

Because dd flash (the mmcblk* file) under linux and with startet recovery did not solve my bootloop / prepairing sd card problem (I had still access to my sd card with twrp-recovery! All the time!) I really think about to enable s-on

I am only scared when I do:

How can I re-enable s-off if my os still hangs on "Preparing Phone Storage" after putting s-on and try to flash an ruu to fix my bootloop/Preparing Phone Storage problem?

I did my s-off with rumrunner.

Would be very thankfull about help.

THX!!!

I leave superCID and it works! I hope my signal would be fine under stock.

THX a lot!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] russell956956:
No, if you have the old July 2011 baseband it shouls be working fine.

In fact the Owain has a zip to make the ROM work with the new baseband.

What baseband are you currently running? And what steps are you taking on flashing the ROM?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Capt. Martin#30:
Currently unsure of my current baseband. Believe its the original. Currently I have Hellfire but was looking to switch to domination but had a band experience but wanna give another try.

Last time had phone all messed up, couldn't get to recovery and the grim reaper appeared on my screen. Also I don't know which domination file share to use.

so i happen to be in the wrong section for the HTC One X (International Verision) and i was reading a thread where alot of people were having wifi connectivity issues. So i tried to do what they were doing to replicate the problem (even though nothing happend, Pressing the back of the phone, checking for a faulty connection) Now that i tried doing it and they told me it has the LTE radio there instead of the wifi one, will my LTE suffer now that i tried it? i fear that i actually bent the connection pins.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Are you in an LTE area?

Didn't you mama ever tell you don't mess with things that aren't broke?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jelly Nugget:
i will be back home tomorrow so yes, i will be. and yes my mama did. but like i said i was in the international section, and i thought my phone would be affect too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
The at&t one X only has one radio its built into the chip so I would say that if you have signal at all you didn't hurt anything.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
If you get good LTE signal and speed when you're back in the LTE area, I wouldn't worry about it.

Makes me think of the old joke:

Doctor: Then don't do that
