[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
I have tried my Springboard on the SIM cards of two different AWS HSPA carriers since I had installed the international ICS ROM. It won't connect to the networks at all, but it works with a 1900 HSPA carrier. So I'm wondering if this ROM could have zapped its ability to use the AWS frequency band.

Is there a way to reflash just the baseband without messing up anything else? I already learned the hard way that at least one of the modem files carries information about the IMEI and SIM unlock status and shouldn't be manually reflashed.

[Kindle Fire General] zero324:
Since I rooted my Kindle Fire I was able to at first watch Amazon Prime Instant Video's with no issue. Well a week later I went to go stream a video and saw that the Watch Now button was grayed out. Under it was a under lined "Why can't I play or download?". When you press that it says " Attention - Your device is no longer configured correctly to play Amazon videos."

I did a full unroot and wipe of the system and once it was back to stock I could watch instant video's again with no problems. I just got thru Kindle Fire Utility v0.9.6 to root it and it's giving me the same problems.

Has anyone else ran into this and know of a solution?
[Kindle Fire General] veeman:
You can't watch Prime videos on rooted device. Use the app OTA Rootkeeper to temporarily turn off root to watch Prime videos.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Geraaaaa:
Hi friends, it's me again.

I really wanna use ICS in my Galaxy SL, and I wanna do the impossible for make it works at 100%, obviously it doesn't gonna work perfect, but if the bugs can be solved with third party apps and works partially good, I'm happy haha.

Well, there's 3 bugs in CM9.

1- Video recording

2- Hardware acceleration in videos

3- Wi-Fi Tethering.

The last 2 bugs can be solved with a third party video player app, and with an app like ''Easy Tether''.

The problem, the video recording.

I know that can works with ''Videocam Illusion'', but I wanna know if it can works with another camera app, like ''Zoom FX'', ''Cymera'', ''ProCapture'', or another camera app. If not, what are the correct settings in Videocam Illusion to get the best video quality? I know that if I configure it at the best, it doesn't gonna work, but I think that the default settings of the app sucks.

I wait for your answers.

Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad English.

Greetings!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] preshit10:
No matter what the camera is going to stay buggy unless we get kernel 3.x . Videos are working fine for now and you just need to cut down background apps for better performance. Hillbeast is now focusing on booting the kernel after which we have a bunch of hungry developers who are going to help him build the kernel from there.

i have a question, if you unroot the tablet, it will restore it to stock rom? even if i do have a custom rom on it like virtuous prime or so?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
nope that is not true

if you rooted your device you can still be on stock Rom

but it seems like you unlocked your device which means you cannot get the stock Rom
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] djcasao:
is there any way to come back to stock?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
nope

unlocking is a one way street

just wondering, why are you trying to go back to stock?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] djcasao:
there seems to be a problem with my wifi when i installed virtuous prime rom, it shows grey instead of blue... and my google talk app stopped working because of that or something...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tshoulihane:
Added this to my faq:

Unwinding - Unroot/Relock

Rooting is reversable. In effect, root requires you to add a couple of files to the normally read-only /system area. These files may be included in a ROM which you flash, and you could easily un-root any ROM if you needed to. Some apps may check for the presence of root, for example.

On the prime, bootloader unlock is a one-way street. First, your serial number is logged by ASUS. 2nd, the process of unlocking is to replace your bootloader with one which no longer checks that it is loading a signed kernel - you are still unable to replace the bootloader. This makes it impossible for any dev to easily re-lock your prime. Unlocked can still flash any ROM (custom one or re-packaged stock) - just never a stock ROM direct from ASUS (either OTA or as a full-wipe).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
the wifi icon showing grey instead of blue usually is just a bug i have that sometimes on my stock ROM

i suggest you try seraching on the virtous prime thread to see if there is anything fix or even give a post there and see if there is a solution

if not you can always try flashing another ROM onto your prime :)

Hi everbody

I tried to install this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1707876 but when I finish the instalation, the phone just bricked at the sony ericsson logo. I realy need help. :crying:

Sorry for my English.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
Is your bootloader unlocked? Did you install the recommended kernel? Did you wipe what had been asked to be wiped in the thread? Did you wait for at least a few minutes before concluding that your device is bricked? Did you attempt to enter CWM and try to restore a backup? Did you try to boot into CWM and install another ROM which had previously worked for you?

All those things needs to be done before you can call your device a brick. It is no where near to brick I suppose.

Anyways, if nothing works, try to flash any official firmware for your device using flashtool.

Also, check the First Aid thread that had been pinned up in this forum.

Thanks,

Rick

i hope this gives u any idea....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Deyo238:
Don't worry It's not bricked, it just wont load the OS (ROM). If you have locked bootloader, then flash official firmware through PC Companion (SEUS), if you have an unlocked bootloader then flash the official firmware (ROM) through Flashtool which you can find here, and you need to download appropriate ROM for your device which you can find here. Hope I helped.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hsrbnr:
Solution

If you can enter flash mode, then use flash tool.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Unlock bootloader, install custom kernel, install the ROM once again and you're done.

No need to install stock ROM first, if your target is installing the custom ROM.

How do we control background data with ICS?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BytecodeMe:
I don't think that there is a straight forward on/off toggle. I don't know if restricting Background Data is the same as turning it off, but to restrict it. Go into settings and under Data Usage hit the menu button and select restrict background data. it'll tell to that you need to set a Mobile Data limit, so set one and try again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JDunc:
Seems like they really want us to.use data...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tungsten c:
What is this mean thought. If I set a limit then I could be without a service when the limit is reached. Is this mean that the background data will stop once the limit is reached or once the limit is set no matter how big or small the back ground data will be stopped if engaged?

On my gingerbread EL29 I could turn it off and I knew because very time I went to the store it asked me to turn it on.

any suggestions on how to turn this off without a limit since I have unlimited everything

Thanks
[Off-topic] uisgdlyast:
So I applied to a bunch of jobs at this pharmaceutical company (I have a BS in biochemistry, worked in a pharmacy lab in college, and did one year of grad school in pharmacy, I hope they don't probe as to why I didn't finish.. another story), they emailed me back asking me to interview with a job recruiter.

Anyways, I have never really needed a suit before, or really any fancy clothes, I have a suit jacket that I wore to a few funerals but in my opinion it really doesn't look that good, not for a job interview.

Its hard for me to find a nice dress shirt since I apparently have a thick neck (even though my hands are the size of a teenage girls) and shorter arms, I have a nice white shirt but can't button the top button without being choked, I have another shirt that fits but it has more of a rough cotton t-shirt look, not that shinier fancy look.

I just bought a pair of nice black pants since my old ones didn't fit, and I have a pair of black Payless dress shoes that aren't amazing but always worn them to dress occasions. I also have some solid color ties to wear.

So I'm wondering if I can get away without wearing a full blown suit to this interview position?

I'm thinking I should get a well fitting white shirt, the shinier kind instead of my plain white one. My shoes are good enough, shiny, dressy, about to polish them...

I just really can't afford a full blown suit right now, I don't know how any unemployed college grad can afford a $300 suit then pay to get it tailored, I can barely buy dress pants. If I was more confident I'd be hired I would borrow the money but to say the least my background check is going to show a terrible credit record which might screw me.

I really don't even know what a suit consists of when you buy it, I mean if I have a dress shirt, tie, pants, shoes don't I just need a suit jacket? Do you need that vest? I assume when you get a full suit it comes with matching pants for the jacket... I never knew the difference between a suit jacket, blazer, sports coat.. they all look similar
[Off-topic] 85gallon:
A cheap fix for the neck problem and dress shirt. JC Penny's and most haberdasheries carry a button extender for the top button. Only a couple of bucks. It will allow you to button the top button for wearing a tie. Just keep the tie snug and no one will see that you have a little extra room in the collar.

Here is a pic of a button extender.

No to the vest. No one wears them. They will make fun of you.

A suit is preferred. A suit jacket with non matching pants is a little casual imho for a job interview for a professional position. Do you have any friends that you can borrow a suit from? Worst comes to worst, you can pick up a cheap suit that doesn't really look cheap from places like Men's Warehouse for a little over $100. Tailoring is not that much. If you go to a place like JC Penny's, I think the tailoring is included. But you can probably find something off the rack for a little over $100. Just make sure what you get, if you do, that it doesn't look cheap.
[Off-topic] veeman:
This should suffice.

Don't forget the cane and pocket watch.
[Off-topic] animatedbreak:
You have the right idea.

Simply put: Dress Pants, Dress Shirt, A tie, Well polished shoes - no laces if you can, A nice belt. Everything nicely ironed and clean.

It doesn't have to be expensive - just has to look good. In Canada there's a place called Stockholme and Designer's Depot and everything is at an awesome price. You should just drop by a mall, and just shop around - tell them the look (and occasion) and price range. You will almost always find something.

But once you look nice and clean - you're good to go.

Good luck.

[Off-topic] MissionImprobable:
Honestly, it might be worthwhile for you to get a suit. One, the impression will be a positive, and two, if you're working an office or sales position that's likely close to how you'll have to dress anyway if you get the job.
[Off-topic] WiredPirate:
I say cosplay and hope s/he is a nerd, lol jk. At the very least khakis with a button down shirt tucked in. Ideally though dress pants, dress shirt w/ tie & dress shoes. I recently had to buy just such an outfit for my cousins wedding and I noticed something: Kohls here in Bama has a very limited selection and only name brand expensive items, but the Kohls in the Chicago suburbs had a HUGE selection without the tags and expensive prices. I was able to get a whole outfit for $130, and it is very nice and good quality. So I guess the bigger the city the better off you will be.
[HTC EVO 3D] hondarider525:
Was trying to get my buddy rommed up on his evo 3d and I did not do enough research and made a mistake, hopefully somebody here can PLEASE help me out.

The HTC bootloader unlock process told me to update to 2.17 before unlocking the bootloader and without doing my research I did so, which obviously update me to hboot 1.5. I have twrp on the phone and tried to install a custom rom which obviously did not boot. I then read up on why that would be so, and now am simply trying to get his phone up and running, even if it were to be the stock rom.

What can I do to get this to work?

I tried flashing the 2.17 RUU and got security failed. Is there a certain rom version that I should be able to install, or what can I do to simply get his phone back up and running?

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys!

Hey guys! Tonight I just noticed that my external loud speaker sounds really weak and low. I have it turned all the way up and its low.. I know my battery life is in the yellow with 21% left. Does the phone lower the volume when battery gets to a certain point? This phone has been flawless. Now I'm afraid it has a problem
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
I think the obvious thing to do here would be to charge your phone and see if it goes back to normal. Agreed?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Mondingo:
Agreed. Lol. But I just did a google search and found several people complaining about the same thing. They said the phone was working and loud speaker was fine. After a few weeks the speaker was really low.. They restarted the phone, and it was loud again. But after a few days went back to being low. Maybe software issue?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
It's possible. I haven't noticed anything like that with mine but then again I don't use the loudspeaker that often. I'll have to pay attention to it now.

Ok so today I found out that the volume does not change with the last 3 or 4 pushes of the volume up button, it does not increase. Nor the same for lowering. It's like its stuck at 60% volume. What do I do..? Return it for a replacement or stick with it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] garyf33:
I have the same problem, only noticed it the other day when I decided to play some music the volume was really low on the external speaker so I decided to make a phone call and the volume seemed low in both the earpiece and external speaker so out of dumb luck I decided to restart the phone. Volume got louder in both but eventually got lower again after a few days. Also, noticed that the external volume doesn't seem to change with the last 2-3 clicks up or down.

Hoping this is a software issue since otherwise it works great, don't really want to return it and possibly get one with other issues.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Mondingo:
This is the exact same problem I am having now.. I too noticed that the ear volume is low as well. I did restart the phone. It worked good for a day. Then same thing. I too am like you. Hopefully there is a software fix for it. I called at&t. They said That HTC handles the tech support for the HOX. Maybe you should call them too and complain. If they hear it from someone else, it might be good.
