[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lurchi17:
Hi guys,

I´ve got my nexus for some weeks now and it really annoys me: Allways if I call somebody the screen turns black directly and I can´t switch it back on again.

The only reason is that the "callen one" picks up his phone. After the call then I have to unlock my phone and I can use it as normaly. If he doesn pick up the phone, I have to put out the battery.

This problem appears on Paranoid Android and on Slim. I directly flashed PA onto my fresh 4.0.1 Nexus. Is this the problem?

Greetings,

lurchi17
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wolfbeef123:
So the problem only persists on those specific ROMs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lurchi17:
Don´t know, didn´t flash any others till now...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lurchi17:
Same problem on Jelly Belly. Maybe my front sensors are broken? Any way to try this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lurchi17:
Seems to be broken, doesn't it?

Edit: is it normal that the area around the proximity sensor gets hot?

Edit2: didn't cover the sensor for sure ;)

want to side-load and use google play on

Ematic eGlide XL Pro 2 (EXLP2B)

that is it...

of course, rooting and flashing a custom rom would be epic...

but it appears this device is too new, and not popular enough... yet... maybe

either way,

any help would be great! Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebarg:
hi,

"market" is a system app, so in order to replace it you might need root but anyways, you can find the play store apk on google or here in xda and try to install it, it might work.

Ematic model EBW204

I left Linux Min16 and installed Windows7 (ick) just to try to root and Mod this device. Any help would be appreciated please. I purchased this device since it was in my budget. I should have researched this on the forum more before the purchase I now know. I do not want to brick it but a Cyanogen Mod would be nice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the1observatory:
It can be done!

After rooting with restore by bin4ry (recovery exploit) and doing a factory reset again and updating SuperUser binary and installing Root Explorer, it's easy to do.

All you need is a signed Gapp package for the correct android OS version. Mine was 20120429 ICS 4.0.3, which I downloaded to the tablet using JRummy's Rom Toolbox Lite from 1Mobile.

Then used Root Explorer to extract the Gapp Zip. Inside you will find all the APK's you need in the archived System/App folder.

Using Root Explorer you can remount the tablets /System/App folder for R/W mode and copy all those APK's from the archive to the device in the same matching location.

Then delete everything in the tablets /data/davlik-cache and shutdown the tablet.

After powering it back on and the tablet loads the OS again, make sure you go into system settings and setup your google account before doing anything else. If the account sync is condition RED instead of GREEN, then you'll have to factory wipe again and retry the Gapp installation. Erase the internal SD storage partition too.

DO NOT HAVE A MICRO SD CARD INSERTED DURING ALL OF THIS EITHER!!!

No custom rom necessary at all. Use the chinese rom manager instead of using the android GUI for the factory reset. I can't read a lick of chinese, but I played with all the boot diagnostic options enough to figure it out. LOL

Volume down plus power for 2 seconds.

Option 2

Option 4, wait until characters stop changing.

Tap GREEN symbol on bottom left.

Take final option 5 for a shutdown.

Power on, , boots, and... taaadaaa clean factory reset waiting for file modification / Gapp Installation.

[HTC Sensation] crimsonedge03:
I've been going through reviews of Sense 4 and I'm contemplating flashing a Sense 4 ROM, but since ROM flashing and the consequent data/apps/settings restoration is an arduous process, I wanted opinions from other people.

Which version of Sense do you prefer in terms of speed, functionality, aesthetics, and any special/exclusive features?
[HTC Sensation] veeny101:
Sense 4 for me.
[HTC Sensation] sajibcy:
for me sense 3.6. better stability,100% functional, better camera quality.
[HTC Sensation] Alienator9191:
Sense 4.0 ftw, but if u wait a bit longer, a nonsense rom will take over the forms(android 4.1) for sure thats gonna be my fav, sense 3.6 looks (by my feeling)bit worse.
[HTC Sensation] sssurfer:
Sense 4.0
[HTC Sensation] shahkam:
I feel sense 4 is more responsive then sense 3.6 it laggs quite a lot if you ask me .. specially the Rosie launcher

Sent From My Sexy Sensation Running Aokp.
[HTC Sensation] phylosoph:
Sense 3.6 is better in terms of multitasking, browser and camera, and sense 4 is better in terms of messaging and keyboard, application speed. I don't know why but browser is awful on sense 4
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
sense 3.6 for sure !!!
[HTC Sensation] baraks:
sense 3.6 for me :)

it's more stable, fully modded and supported here in the forum, better camera, 100% Hardware compatible with our Sensation.

sense 4.0 feels faster and looks better but you seek the sense 4.0 looks you can install skin on sense 3.6....
[HTC Sensation] xdviper:
Sense 3.6 because it's much more smooth, at least for me than sense 4.0

On 3.6 everything works as it should, 4.0 just looks nice and has had some glitches; ie while using chrome w/ sense 4.0.
[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
I would prefer AOSP/AOKP :p

But if you're asking between Sense, I would choose 4.0. Although there are still a few minor bugs here and there.
[HTC Sensation] crimsonedge03:
I finally flashed a Sense 4 ROM (ViperS by Team Venom) and went back to 3.6 because the menu button sticking around everywhere bugged the hell out of me.
[HTC Sensation] pottyvick:
I would choose sense 4 but only because sense 3.6 seems to have really a really big font. Everything looks crisper for me on sense 4. Sense 3.6 seems smoother but the huge font and the app tray bother me.
[HTC Sensation] baraks:
all fonts are changable with Font Canger (on google Play it's free)

i use sony sketch font and its small enought and beautiful
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Sense 4.

It feels much more refined. At first when I saw it in a leaked video it looked horrible but after using it I like it.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Sense 4 for sure !
[HTC Sensation] ogg1e:
I'd like to say 4, but I've tried two sense4 roms and both had horrible battery life. I went back to 3.6 and the battery life is much better.

I like 4 visually over 3.6 though.
[HTC Sensation] dionisis1976:
Probably tried 80% of the desire s roms, I do like the sense 4 and love 4.1. The camera quality on 3,6 is much better and this is only reason for coming back to ICE DS V8 sense 3.6. Overclocked to 1500 get an antutu score of 5236.

Downloaded the ICS update without any issues. When I connect my hone to my HDTV with HDMI cable webtop mode works fine. When I connect via the HD station just get a black screen. Interestingly I see that Moto does not list the Razr as a compatible device anymore. Worked fine on GB as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] mariojp:
The judge ruled that HTC had not infringed four technologies that Apple had claimed as its own.

It also turns out that HTC had a touch screen device with slide to unlock features, which we all knew. This is more proof that apple steals technology and put patents on them. (If they aren't patents for them) Then claims it as their own and says winning competitors steal.

View attachment 1178708

Another Victory for us Android owners.

HTC quoted:

"HTC is pleased with the ruling, which provides further confirmation that Apple's claims against HTC are without merit. We remain disappointed that Apple continues to favour competition in the courtroom over competition in the marketplace."

This is so true, apple tries to defeat competition through court. (As most of us know)
[HTC EVO 3D] Austin3161337:
Hell yeah , Apple just tries law suiting anyone who makes touch screen smart phones..they law suited samsung ! , man they are stupid. They think they created everything
[HTC EVO 3D] 512jmann10:
Wow

After reading that article I think of apple of being sore pathetic losers. Man I really despise Iphones even more. HTC & Samsung way better then Apple's pathetic and typical iphones. Nothing especial about those permanent defaulted phones. The only thing apple has done good are the Macs and that's it. The only apple product I will ever own. And I heard from a friend that Iphones have Samsung processors inside of them, so why would they sue, when they are the real fake copycats? hahaha Droids forever.:laugh:

[HTC EVO 3D] Juan685:

[HTC EVO 3D] mariojp:
I'm definitely more optimistic towards android and it's OEMs. Samsung recently won a legal battle against apple, too.
[HTC EVO 3D] mariojp:
They do. Samsung manufacturs the A5 chip that apple products use, the headphone jack, and the screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] sic_inside:
YES! The worse part is Apple is losing potential customers with this sue everyone mentality they have now. I was considering getting the 4S when it was first coming out, but that was right about when I first read the law suit and I saw what the Apple corporation is really about. They don't care how many honest, hard working, good people they have to put out of a job as long as their bottom line looks good.
[HTC EVO 3D] gt3:
Woohoo...Apple is like the big bully in the school yard...good to see that it does win all the time!
[HTC EVO 3D] ArisenDrake:
Maybe this sounds like a hating post, but this is my oppinion to Apple and why Apple deserves this!

Yeah ... In my oppinion Apple is ****! Apple says something is revolutionary but for example the facebook integration has been implented in Android a long time ago!

Apple's products are very expensive, but why? The Hardware built in a Macbook Pro costs maybe 600€ (I don't know how much $), but a Macbook Pro Retina (Ok, Retina screen ...) costs 2.800€ (I don't know the price in $ too), why? Because the OS? No, that can't be! I think it's because of the Apple Logo and the name Apple.

I won't pay over 600€ for an iPhone, certainly not with that restrictions! I need a Jailbreak for doing things that I can make with an unrooted Android phone.

HTC is a good company. HTC releases the source code of their products (like HTC Sense) and gives a lot of "old" phones updates for ICS. Sure this takes a lot longer than Apple need, but HTC has many different devices.

Really, Apple and their patent complaints! THEY are stealing technology from other companys and then they sue them!

Apple, you need this! HTC, congratulations!
[HTC EVO 3D] mariojp:
I definitely agree. I tell people all the time that apple can sell anything with their apple logo on it. Yes, they're popular but popularity isn't always the best. They could sell G1s if they branded an apple logo on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] runcool:
+1 then +practically this entire forum. My opinion is that the patent system needs redone! Sure it is nice in some areas. BUT THERE ARE THINGS NO ONE INVENTED! Just because you have a patent doesn't mean you own it. It's false... I think every company should pay 1 million dollars for every false patent in their hands. Give them 6 months to filter out the fake ones they didn't actually think of and make. If they didn't think of it, but make it... it doesn't make it theirs. They stole the idea. All ideas are thought of before it ever hits a business.

unless you're in the medical business where it's the lab work that made the discovery, then you didn't think of it.
​

BTW, YOU HAVE COMPANIES CLAIMING PATENTS FOR A PROCESS! YOU DIDN'T INVENT FIRE! HOW COULD YOU SAY, "to light a match under wood" lol. this is just an example. or a process of how to make waffles!?!?!?!? REALLY! YOU DIDN'T INVENT THAT! a process should not be in any patent system! EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO USE YOUR IDEA AS LONG AS IT IS USED CORRECTLY AND IF THE OWNER WANTS MONEY, HE GETS A PART! then again, this entire patent system is BADLY SLOWING DOWN TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT ON THIS PLANET!!!!!!

Any way to bring a battery back up to spec? I was thinking about bump charging my phone repeatedly. I'm a heavy phone user and the battery doesn't last more than 3 hours anymore if that. I'm planning on giving the phone to a friend, but don't want them to have to buy a new battery right away.

The bh5x is $5. Just buy it. L-ion batteries are only supposed to last a year. And bump charging will only destroy it even more. Dont ever try any of those tricks they dont work and only destroy your battery.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trina9:
I've complained to Sprint on the delay of ICS for the EVO 3D. They have told me that they don't have the software and are unable to send it. Also they have told me that they have no control when HTC will send the upgrade to them.

Now, this makes no sense to me. I would think that Sprint has something to do with this and it's not just a HTC issue. In fact, HTC told me that it's a joint effort between them and Sprint, which makes sense to me.

This BS with the update is really making me consider getting a Galaxy Nexus for my next phone. But, I have concerns about Sprint just refusing to let the update happen, which is what I think is going on with the EVO 3D ICS update.

So, to my question, how do system updates work?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushroom_cult:
I truly don't believe its a sprint issue at this point. HTC has been less than forthcoming about updates for the 3d (or any HTC phone, for that matter).

I'm sure sprint has to QC check and approve/push the update (and probably has final say as to whether or not the update gets pushed at all) but I'm fairly certain the ball is in HTCs court right now.

Then again, this is 100% opinion and speculation on my end - I'm probably completely off base.

Sent from my HTC One X
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trina9:
Actually, no. Look on there blog and they have dates listed for ICS release on many different phones.

HTC, Sprint hasn't officially announced anything.

www.htc.com/www/help/android4faq/?cid=android4blog
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushroom_cult:
Oh yeah, that. That's been known for a while.

Regardless, that still gives HTC 25 more days before they have to provide sprint with software to test (assuming that is, in fact, the way it works - I still don't know) just to be compliant with their own schedule. On top of that, sprint will have to test and approve the update before pushing it out.

IMO, I think we'd see leaked RUUs for sprint if they actually had a functional ROM in testing right now. But at the same time, we've got the leaked ROM from virgin mobile, so who knows?

Either way, I'm glad I jumped ship and left sprint :-P

Sent from my HTC One X
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushroom_cult:
Ok, so I just revisited the 3d forums for the first time since jumping ship.

I revise my opinion. Based on the fact that pretty much every other carrier seems to be receiving OTA updates (based on the massive number of threads in the general forum), I'm gong to go ahead and assume that sprint has, in fact, dropped the ball on this one.

Sent from my HTC One X
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 85gallon:
I would assume that once HTC finally developes the updates, Sprint test it and adds/deletes anything they want to before it is released to the end user.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trina9:
Ok, yes, we agree that Sprint sucks on getting the upgrade out.

However, my question still stands. How Do Updates Work? I'm presuming that Google sends the upgrade to HTC, they make it work on their OS. Then they send it to Sprint, which makes their changes to work on their network and then they deliver the update.

Anyone got a clue?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zenno:
Alright, so here's my problem:

I just upgraded to the Galaxy S III yesterday, and today decided to try to 'root' the device. So I found the Toolkit here on XDA (from here), and went through the initial steps without any issues (driver installation, device recognition, etc..).

I then went to the 'rooting option' menu, where I selected the first--and most basic --option, which was to only install Super User, and the push the permissions.

I was following the automated guide, opened Odin, selected the correct file, 'boot-insecure-i9300xxale8-gsm.tar', and made sure only 'auto-restart' and F.reset time' were checked, and clicked 'start'. The flash appeared to have gone well, but when it tried to restart, the phone never rebooted. I attempted to reboot into download mode (Vol. Down + Home + Power), but the device was unresponsive. I then browsed around the forums a bit looking for other methods, including taking the battery out for several minutes, then putting it back in whilst holding down the 'download mode' button combination, and other various variations of that method; yet again, none prevailed.

The device gives no indicator lights when plugged in, no light up when the power button is held down, and is overall seemingly unresponsive. However, when I hold down the 'home' button alone - after about 30 seconds - a green vertical battery appears on the screen, with a little white loading indicator on it, but vanishes after about 5 seconds or so, and the device becomes unresponsive once more.

The device is not being recognized by my computer whatsoever, no beeps or anything when plugged in.

Any ideas as to what I can do?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zenno:
EDIT: I have been able to get into 'Download mode' somehow, but after trying to reflash the stock rom, it went back to the 'Unresponsive' mode. I have it in Download mode again currently, so what do I do from here?
