Hey guys, looking for a good phone/provider suggestion. Currently rocking a droid x with Verizon. Not too happy bout losing unlimited data if I stay with Verizon, but not sure there is any good alternative. Thoughts?
[General Topics] mellll:
So many choices. Nobody here can make that choice for you.

Best way to find out what will be best for you is go to the store and play around them, go on youtube and look at reviews, or go read reviews online.

Theres no such thing as a 1 phone for all in the Android world.

*TLDR - Go online and start looking and reading about them and the features you care about and want the most.
[General Topics] w98seeng:
As someone who just got a Galaxy S3, I would say, get one of these, but I am a bit biased. I do love the phone and coming from an original Galaxy S, there is a hell of a difference.

Others will say "go with this because I have one and I love it", just as I did.

Do what mellll said, go to your local mall since most of the carriers will be there and try out the different phones. See what feels right. What feels good in your hand, what interface you like.

Go to GSMArena http://www.gsmarena.com/ and look at different phones with the features you want.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackfrost909:
Trying to return a Evo 4G to stock for return to sprint/assurion.

Phone has non-functioning volume buttons which makes navigating hboot and fastboot impossible. Can only select first option in each (power button works).

I have Smelkus recovery so i have full navigation in recovery (capacitive buttons work).

Right now whenever I boot the phone it goes right to recovery (smelkus 4.2.1)

When it boots up everything looks normal but the very bottom of the screen shows:

RA Revamped

Build : RA-supersonic-4.2.1-smelkusMOD

E:Invalid command argument

Recovery seems to work normally though.

The phone is rooted with HTCdev website. I did not go any further with other unlocks as far as I remember.

This is what bootloader shows:

*** UNLOCKED ***

SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-2.18.0001

MICROP-041f

TOUCH PANEL-ATMELC03_16ac

I've tried so far:

Flashing various stock rooted and unrooted roms (usually latest or one prior to latest I could find).

Also tried flashing AOSP ROM (Deck's 1.3d)

Running an RUU linked from (I think) CaptainThrowback's sig. Was a 3.7xxx version - RUU failed claiming was wrong RUU. Phone version had shown 4.56. or 4. something before starting so maybe was too old?

Am downloading now an RUU 4.67.651.3 now but DL is very slow. Hope that works because I think that's my last ditch.

Besides the RUU failing, the other flashes all seemed successful yet when I reboot the phone it still drops me right back into Recovery (smelkus)

Any help? I gotta return this thing very soon and running out of ideas.

Thanks all.

** EDIT

Ran that last RUU and I get the same error: ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR.

Then it tells me to get the correct ROM Update Utility an try again.

This RUU version (4.67.xx) is/was the same as reported on my phone before I started it.

Any thoughts anyone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asonicperson:
My first thought is that you volume button might be stuck on the volume down key that's why it keeps booting up into recovery or it can be the recovery as well. Try to get the volume keys to work first tho.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackfrost909:
I know the volume key not to be stuck. The phone booted fine into the previous ROM until some point in my restoring to stock when the previous rom got wiped, iirc the first time I flashed a stock rooted over it.

I'm wondering if I didn't bork something trying to fix this with fastboot.

I'm grasping here but I think I read something once... Is it possible I pushed recovery to the 'regular' rom (OS) partition? That's why it's booting to Recovery every time?

But would that explain why flashing a rom from the recovery doesn't overwrite nor throw an error either..

Not sure where to go next. Gonna try to find a rom image I can push through fastboot. Should probably do recovery img that way too...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
You have to relock before you can flash an RUU or PC36IMG.

Since you can get into recovery, adb will work. Connect the device to the computer in recovery, and open a command prompt from the folder with adb in it. Issue the command "adb reboot bootloader", and it should reboot into fastboot mode. Once the device says "FASTBOOT USB", you can issue the command "fastboot oem lock", which will relock your HBOOT.

Then the RUU should work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackfrost909:
Thanks Captain,

I wish I'd have seen your post sooner but I did figure it out. I guess talking it out sometimes is important too...

For now I'm going with that I had somehow installed the recovery into the "main" OS partition (I'd been trying to flash things from fastboot so user error is very possible..)

I noticed in Smelkus there's a 'developer' menu with a 'reboot to recovery' option so I tried that on a whim and when recovery booted up I did not have the "E:Invalid command argument" at the bottom of my screen.

I tried flashing a stock rooted. Bam! Success. Assumedly rebooting from the above menu actually got me to the *real* recovery running from the recovery partition and flashing worked from there

Captain, since you know this stuff well, maybe you can expand on exactly what just happened here (why it flashes seemed to succeed and not throw errors from the recovery in the 'wrong' partition for example) but for now I'm calling this solved and note to self and maybe other's that the "E:Invalid command argument" is at least a possible indication that recovery may be running from the wrong partition.

hth someone else,

I just found this app called Lazydroid (I'm not the developer, so I'm not promoting anything), and this app is super awesome. It's only $4 bucks and it pretty much turns your phone into a web desktop client. it gives you an ip address, type it into your browser and you have a windows like interface complete with remote control, remote sms, and remotely controlling your files with drag and drop interface. Very similar to FileExpert, but more features.

Thought I would share, it helps if you have rooted phone for the remote control.:good:

I give it a good 4 out of 5 stars, I only had less then an hour to play with it, so I don't know it's full potential.

Oh also, it has a remote terminal too :)

This thread here: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-with-Windows-Phone/BAd-audio-recorded-with-Lumia-900/m-p/1385449/highlight/false#M12301

pretty much sums up my experience. The audio recording quality on the phone is horrible. Something with the microphone or a software issue. The guy has links for an apple-to-apple comparison between his 900 and an iPhone as they are driving and listening to music.

Can people please confirm this so I know if this is the case with all Lumia 900s or just some of them? Maybe I can get it replaced.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] klbjr:
That has always been a problem. You can send a file but it has to be so tiny that it defeats the purpose. I usually email it to somebody or the easiest way is to upload it to Dropbox & then send the person/people the link through a text.

I'm looking for a rom with really good battery life.

I am currently on AOKP build 40 with franco kernel milestone 4.

I get about 2hrs screen time and my phone dies in around 8 hours.

I have my brightness set to zero, phone on silent, i do some texting through the day along with using twitter, i have LTE turned off and im at a spot where i get good 3g, wifi off, NFC off, and pretty much everything set to off that could negatiley affect the battery in anyway and juice defender installed with the aggressive mode on.. Accounts and sync is also off. My governer is set to Conservative all the time, same with my franco governer thing is on power saver. I am underclocked to 729mHz.

Idk maybe im expecting too much from the stock battery, but jeez shouldn't i be getting a little better battery life? Haha i also calibrated my battery too

Anyways could you guys give me some suggestions on what Roms i could flash and kernels, that would help me get a nice amount of screen time and battery life?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erronr:
I have searched and searched for my exact issue and I am not coming up with anything. Took a stock Kindle Fire, Rooted, Recovery and BL no problem.

If I try to flash a rom that is ICS based it has issues booting. It shows fff then goes to boot and gives a black screen. If I go into fff and tell it boot normal then it will show the boot animation (say cm9 robot) and just bootloop.

I have tried to adb commands for 4000 and checked my roms are downloading correctly. I have gone back to stock with no fff or twrp then started over and I always end with this same result. I never lose fff or twrp and always keep adb other than when it's bootlooping.

If I flash a rom like CM7 or stock rooted it boots up with no issues. Is this a kernel bug and if so is there a way around it? Any advice would be great, thank you. It also seems like if the device is plugged in it wont even bootloop. It just stays at the black screen.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anomalya:
This could be the result of bad flashes and/or corrupt data carried over from your multiple flashes.

If so, you didn't mention anything about wiping data (sytem/cache/dalvik) in TWRP before each flash in your process, so that's most likely what's causing the issue.

Try those and also do a "fix permissions" after reboot as added measure.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
sounds like your in fastboot?

try fastboot devices and see if it returns anything, if you get a number back then you are stuck in fastboot mode.

turn off kindle with usb cable attached, issue command bellow, when it says waiting for device switch on kindle, if fastboot kicks in it should reset bootmode.

fastboot 0x1949 bootmode 4000

or

fastboot 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erronr:
So here is the point im at after following the tips.

I can get the device to boot one time on a custom rom. After the one time, dead. It doesn't show that it's in fastboot mode when it has the black screen.

When I get the 4.0 rom to load, adb or even usb mass storage mode doesn't recognize the device. Something really odd is happening and I have no clue as to what. Anyone else have a problem like this?
