[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastfed:
only way a security app would work, would be if it had a network..

My xoom was locked, so someone would of had to format it to get it to come up and by then, any app would be erased anyway

Just sucks that these companies cannot some how incipient a unique ID for each tablet.

**** THIS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] big ach:
The app in the play store is called plan B and can be installed and used remotely. Good luck!

The best way for you to prevent someone from charging your google account is to go to google online, on another computer and change your login password. If they try to purchase an app the old password will no longer work.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucasarran:
Sorry to hear about this. But the is ways to own him/her like big ach said with Plan B but I also found an app called Lost Phone which you just install from Google Play site and then sign into your Google Account via the website and you can set off alarms, wipe and stuff. Try it out.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastfed:
sadly all these tricks are based on the fact that they got passed my facelock and security pin.

without those, they cannot get in, there for they will have to format/reset the entire xoom to factory settings.. :(

which means no google account anymore
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathblade:
just go to the site via a computer login and install apps remotely then use them to locate, wipe, or what ever else they can do, I know some that do actually give you GPS location
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastfed:
I did that.. but I had my xoom set for wifi while awake only.

Its not a network verizon xoom, wifi only

I did do those apps though, nothing came back
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaosgod27:
Jeez is it me or no one actually read what the guy is trying to say? You can't install an app if you don't have data connection! He bluntly says it everywhere! So your only option is to move on, since the stealer could get some one to flash a new ROM or just by relocking/unlocking the bootloader it would reset everything! Well don't think he would do that though. But factory reset will also work. Sorry for your lost buddy!

Hello i am new & i bought a new xperia arc s ....i need someone to make me under stand waht is the Fastboot mode in my cell & Flash mode...and can any1 plz tell me how to access these modes ?...

Thank you ....
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpith.fbi:
-flash mode allows u to flash an ftf file(image of stock OS),baseband..u can access them by turning phone off, hold back button and plug in USB Cable .

-fastboot mode allows you to flash kernel and unlock your bootloader.u can access them by turn phone off, hold menu button and plug in USB Cable.

for both u need to have Flashtool installed in your PC

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wirelessgirl:
Hey everyone,

I'm having issues with my screen not turning off at times and I think it has to do with Smart Stay. I'm not even looking at the screen and the screen would stay on. Last night I was playing around with my phone, I left the room, came back and my screen was still on. The other issue I have is when I'm reading a long email the screen would turn off. Is this a software issue or do I have a defective phone?

Forgot to mention, I have the Rogers version.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
Your face has to be centered in the upper right hand camera. That is a little off centered. So turn your front facing camera on and center your face. That's where your face should be. It's not using your eyes but it's using facial recognition to stay on.

As for your screen not turning off... how long is your screen set out for?

Lastly, turn smart stay off and see if it does the same. That will let you know the real problem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahitsgotahemii:
I have noticed this effect on my phone as well. Above my computer area, is a lamp, that is somewhat round. Every once and a while the smart stay will detect an object that it thinks is a head, however it is not. So the screen will stay on. Just move it. The smart stay does not work 100% in lower ambient light also. So if this screen off issue is occurring more often at night or in low light environments, that is fairly typical. Your phone is fine.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wirelessgirl:
Ok, I turned on my front facing camera to center my face. I have to say that's an awkward way of holding the phone to make sure Smart Stay detects your eyes.

My screen is set to time out for 30 seconds.

I did turn off smart stay last night and my screen turned off. I know it's an issue with smart stay. But could it also be a front facing camera issue? It seems to take pictures okay though.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dbG33K:
Does anyone know if this would be possible? It certainly save me and others quite a bit of money from having to buy a Surface (which I'd LOVE to have, but can't afford).

Is it likely, possible, not likely, impossible?

Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] iferlive:
It is impossible because windows is not an open source OS and they don't share/release the sources so we don't have a chance to compile it and try it out.

Intested of windows8 I would go for ubuntu once the 3.x kernel is stable.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Montisaquadeis:
On top of that Windows 8 RT will be fully locked down with a locked bootloader and be locked to that device so yeah wont be able to take it off another device thats similar to ours. Read up on UEFI for pcs/mobile devices since thats the next step from a BIOS.

[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
Everyone that uses this guide should make sure to hit the thanks button for friend.evil, I know it was hard work making this guide and watching this thread to make sure everyone that needs help gets it.

Nice write up. Question, when you get s-off from unlimited.io do you still have an official hboot or is it a modified unlimited.io hboot?
[HTC EVO 3D] friend.evil:
unlimited.io hboot

but this is the first time i write a thread so hope hope no one has any problems
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
The reason I wondered if it was a modified hboot is because if you use the writesecreflag command to s-on with an "unofficial" hboot, it will brick the device. The safest thing to do in my opinion is to flash an official hboot after getting s-off just incase you don't remember this when you want s-on.
[HTC EVO 3D] The Troll:
D_ Back to S-ON

1_Go to fastboot

2_Type fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

3_fastboot reboot-bootloader

^DONT

unless you wanna brick ur device..

its like this.. the hboot is still revolutionary, not stock.. if u use SON on it, the device will brick, and since you have soff, theres no way of reviving the device except for jtagging.

SON trick only works on stock bootloader.
[HTC EVO 3D] friend.evil:
thank you for noticing fixed it
[HTC EVO 3D] friend.evil:
Dude you are right thank you for noticing

fixed
[HTC EVO 3D] Benik3:
Nice post.

Maybe in the B section could be info about using ADB and fastboot+the files.

And also exist another recovery then CWM :) (4-EXT touch...)

And also in B section should be in step 14 "same methods from 10->14" not from the 1. step :)

Also what I read, with the unlimited method the bootloader will be locked back after S-OFF :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] friend.evil:
thanks for helping but in htcdev they explain how to use them and who will care about locked when someone has s-off?

and he/she can get it back if he goes to htcdev.com and do the same methods( correct when he click yes the phone will freeze when you unlock using the token but take out the battery and put it back you will notice it's unlocked)
[HTC EVO 3D] Pauly_k:
I have a ICS Rom and I am rooted by using htcdev method.

Can I install the lee droid Rom and go straight into steps c and d ... ?

I thought for the wire trick I would need to have a stock ROM.. or re lock the boatloader ?

I wonder the easiest way to get s off ...
[HTC EVO 3D] friend.evil:
it depends what is your hboot? and don't lock the bootloader
[HTC EVO 3D] Benik3:
The H-BOOT is different

Maybe if you install first official GB and then again unlock bootloader...
[HTC EVO 3D] Gameforce:
Hello everybody,

I have a problem,

Net Swiss Knife​

Hi folks,

just so you know I'm working on an app that could attract the networking core inside you. It's Net Swiss Knife and I've already released the first real version (v1.0)

It offers easy and quick Wake-on-LAN with a list of recently woken up PCs, next there's a simple DNS query (with output similar to dig), simple WHOIS command and port probe (which kind of replaces ping which is impossible to do (in managed code) on Windows Phone 7).

The results of DNS query and WHOIS command can be copied - partially or whole result.

I've also added some walkthrough section to help with basic network settings on Windows (Linux and other coming soon), it's very limited but still something is there. :)

'Nuff said. Grab it. DOWNLOAD IT. Right from this link. It's free! (For now...)

I'll also need some testers for the upcoming versions - so if you want, post here or send me a PM. Thanks! :)

Version history:

[B]Version 1.1.78:[/B] (current)
[LIST]
[*]added mass port scan beta
[*]DNS: added Multicast DNS (only works within a current Wifi network)
[*]DNS: added TXT request/response type
[*]DNS: fixed parsing of compressed responses
[*]DNS: new results pivot + details after tapping on each record
[*]added icons for various actions (wakeup, copy, pin)
[*]added pinning Wake-on-LAN computers to start
[/LIST]

[B]Version 1.0:[/B]
[list]
[*]reverse DNS queries possible
[*]added a list of WHOIS servers
[*]auto WHOIS server selection when nothing is entered into the server field
[*]changed back button behaviour
[*]keyboard now hides after "scan" is pressed (all pages)
[*]fixed DNS MX record fetching
[*]fixed bug with no displayed result when RCODE indicates an error
[*]allowed queries to nameservers other than just by IP address
[*]fixed: question class and question types are switched in the question record
[*]fixed bug where disconnected devices appear in the top bar on the main page
[/list]

Of course I'm still working on this! What can you anticipate for the next versions?

more simultaneous port probes at once

smarter Wake-on-LAN with support for SecureOn

IP calculator

more walkthroughs

more languages (anyone wanna help? :) )

I'm watching this thread, any suggestions/problems arise, post them here.

1.1.78 update released

A significant update to the Net Swiss Knife has been released! Let's see what it brings:

added mass port scan beta

DNS: added Multicast DNS (only works within a current Wifi network)

DNS: added TXT request/response type

DNS: fixed parsing of compressed responses

DNS: new results pivot + details after tapping on each record

added icons for various actions (wakeup, copy, pin)

added pinning Wake-on-LAN computers to start

the app now remembers last entered domains in the textboxes

added External IP fetch to the Network Info page (in beta, it doesn't work right after the first attempt - that's a WP7 bug)

Please note that Mass Scan is still in a beta, mainly due to WP7 technical limitations regarding threads and timeout issues that I cannot overcome in any simple manner. So the timeout may seem short, but in reality I cannot cancel the connection, and thus, sometimes you might experience long delays while doing the scan. I'm sorry for that, I don't know any easy way out though. If you have any ideas, I'd be glad to hear them. Thanks!

Download location? Still the same! Windows Phone Store. Available for all and so far for free!

DOWNLOAD NOW!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] npoe:
I'm not sure how feasible is this, but more than once I have had problems related to latency and the app doesn't have a trace and ping tool.

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 PM ----------

I would love to see them in a new release.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] PaulosCZ:
Hi npoe,

I am afraid no one can do that - the ICMP ping seems impossible using available APIs, and that unfortunately also applies to traceroute... :(

But! We could use the port scan function to simulate the ping. As I think about it, it's not impossible, but it will also be limited by WP7 thread limitations. Still, better than nothing.

Thanks for a neat idea!

"Then I opened ROM Manager and allowed the app to update, I guess updating CWM too." - Never use ROM manager on the TF, it causes extensive problems. There is a warning thread about this in General.

You'll want to try running Roach2010's fix, either via my PERI tool (in my sig) or by manually typing the commands.

Lifesaver! One problem - when I plug my TF into my PC using the USB cable it doesn't recognise it. Won't this be a problem?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Alright you're going to want to download this while you read :P -- http://xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Asus/Asus+Transformer+(TF101)/STOCK+ROMS/ICS+.24

Quick guide:

1. Connect cable to computer and turn device on while holding down Volume Up. Screen will stay off, but USB will come on.

2. Find “APX” device in Device manager and update driver, then point it at usbpcdriver directory from the zip.

3. Run download.bat.

In the link below a driver package is also included, you need to either...

Open the Start Menu, type 'cmd' and hit enter, then type:
pnputil -a C:\path\to\driver folder\NvidiaUsb.inf file
exit
Then plug in the TF in APX mode and windows will find drivers automatically

Or you right click computer and hit 'Manage' and then hit 'Device Manager', find the ? entry that says APX and right click and hit 'update driver', then navigate to the folder.

Download the unbrick .zip from here: http://xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Asus/Asus+Transformer+(TF101)/STOCK+ROMS/ICS+.24

(Before each file are 2 letters, (US, WW, CN, TW...) pick the one that is your Region. I'm assuming you need WW, which stands for World Wide, but if you reside in Taiwan take TW, China take CN and America take US.

Also download Wheelie NvFlash from here: http://androidroot.mobi/2012/05/31/wheelie-for-windows-beta/

Extract it, and copy the Contents of the folder into the Unbrick .zip folder's contents main folder, Overwrite any files that conflict.

Then you should be able to run Reflash_Sbkv#.bat to unbrick your TF in APX mode that is connected, try Sbkv2 first, then if you get access denied try Sbkv1.

Hope you're sorted out! :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
Is it just me or is this the case? I've lost 17% from chrome alone in only 4 hours. I didn't even open it.

Sigh, back to Dolphin HD...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sharp2G:
rouge app? Unless chrome is continuously syncing for 4 hours non stop which is hard to believe.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
The screen was off almost the entire time. I'm at work. I mean it killed 17% in the background entirely.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
I don't know. But it's disappointing.. Less than 15 minutes of screen time and I'm at 75% just from chrome, IN THE BACKGROUND.

Lame.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
I had this problem. Uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome a couple days ago, and it just came back this morning. Responsible for 38% of battery drain after 2.5 hours on battery, but the battery is also still at 100%, so it's not quite as severe as yours.

According to Badass Battery Stats, Chrome's usage is because of the "gyroscope".

Looking under Developer tools, there's an option called "Enable Tilt Scrolling", and it's checked. Maybe this is, for some reason, running in the background?

I've unchecked it and rebooted. After I recharge my battery to green again, I'll unplug it and see if I get the same effect. I'm guessing this will solve it, though. Might be worth a shot while you wait for me to report back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
I'm at work so I'll be waiting on the results!

Thanks much!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vioalas:
Yeah, it's chrome, I never opened the app yesterday and it used 10% of my battery. Today it's been fine though...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
A little over an hour after reboot and no battery usage by Chrome, so we look good so far.

I'd consider this to be resolved unless I return to this thread and say otherwise. :good:
