[HTC Incredible S] irfquake:
Thanks will try that, but not sure how I do that?

Also, assuming all my music and pics are on the memory card, and that I have setup the "backup and restore" settings, do I need to back anything else up?
[HTC Incredible S] WILLI120:
You can do that in the recovery. It's called "wipe/factory reset". Your stuff on the phone will be deleted but your SD card remains untouched. ;)
[HTC Incredible S] miguelca:
irfquake, I didn't need to restart the phone many times. It just had to perform some internal tasks and after setting some things up in order to adapt to ICS, as time passed by the phone started to perform better.

Now it shows no lags while opening or switching apps.

I'm not saying that the factory result is a bad option. I'm just saying you might find out that you might not need it at all. ;)
[HTC Incredible S] irfquake:
ok, will wait till the weekend and hopefully it will clear itself up. But just to confirm - you didnt need to make any changes yourself?

thanks
[HTC Incredible S] miguelca:
Hi irfquake, I didn't need to apply any "special" settings. Just personalized it to my taste. ;)

Instead of saying thanks please click thanks... :D
[HTC Incredible S] irfquake:
lol, done!

One last question - how can I de-link the notification volume to the ringtone volume in ICS. Its really annoying, hoping there is some sort of workaround
[HTC Incredible S] InsertDumbNick:
There's an app in the market that can control the volumes of every individual sound based alert. Not sure what the name is. You can google or check the play store :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] cgardnervt:
The right answer is no...

BIUT you might be able to just walk in and add it. Maybe they wont ask to see the phone. Then I'd wait a few days before you did your claim.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] VikingoRMCF:
refurbished phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] contradude:
If they let you add it, I don't think I would be concerned one way or another. Pretty sure that bby mobile usually hands you a phone off the shelf but it depends on your phone and service plan. I'm a little fuzzy since I was a geek squad agent instead of a mobile rep though
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] VikingoRMCF:
They added the insurance w/o having to see the phone.

Hello All,

How can you confirm if your bootloader is unlocked or not? Did a search but can't seem to find anything specific.

Thank You
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trax7:
Well if your bootloader is locked, then you can't flash kernel via flashtool. However, if it works (if you see that kernel is flashed successfully and you turn on the phone and new kernel is flashed) then you know it works - I don't know any other way :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] swazpurohit:
I ask as im looking to purchase one and make sure its not been unlocked for warranty purposes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
It's written 'device is unlocked' on top left corner for a few seconds when you boot your device. At least on mine.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pkmmte:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] givabon:
i need the same information...

i need to know if the prime i bought used has the bootloader unlocked (i think it has).

i don't see any "device unlocked" in the upper left corner when i turn it on...

i read on the net that i had to turn on the prime pressing power+volume down, and than volume up, but it doesn't work since i get the green bot with his belly opened and a red triangle coming out from it...

I'm a totally newbe of android and i'm trying to understand something about rooting, roms etc... but i'm failing, and my prime keeps showing strange and annoying problems.....

help me

:crying:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
No, boot your prime with volume down + power, then do nothing. After few seconds another screen will appear, if you have only two icons it's locked.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] givabon:
i have 3 icons:

on the right android green bot

in the middle usb icon

on the left an icon with something like a box opened and "wipe" written on it

is unlocked, isn't it? :rolleyes:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:

I have a dead power button that I think is broken or have a dust in it that can't make it work.

I have read several threads about it.

For example the phone is off and i cant turn it on by power button is there any way to make it on?

using ADB?

or using a CM7/CM9 ROM? (some says that if you plug the charger it will automatically turn on)

or any methods that you can recommend?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
I can relate, it's becoming quite common. Mine is slowly dying. I have volume rocker wake enabled and touch wake also. My understanding from reading other peoples problem is that it should turn on when plugged in with ics.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] takeoutttt:
Thanks you too. Im using legend 5 and got MIUI locker for a while that it can wake up by using vol buttons. Used button remapping also for the power function. XD
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baconatorXVI:
Do at your own risk:

It's really easy to use a small( I mean correct size for the screws) screwdriver and pull the back plate off the phone and give everything a good cleaning out. You won't believe the junk you find in there. Chances are there's junk up in the power button. I used to have power button issues till I took it apart and cleaned it.

There is a guide(with pics) to tear it down and put it back together somewhere....

I've probably disassembled mine 3 or 4 times. Never had any trouble i only use 3 of the 6 screws to hold the back plate on. it's easier to deal with only three.

also you can use your fingernail to peel back the plastic by the screen and power button area. once you do this try your best to press your lips up to the phone and blow air through the crack. I use this almost every two weeks to get my power button to behave properly.

I think it's possible to replace the power button, might require soldering. I'm not sure, I've never needed to do it.

Hope this resource helps

80-character SMS limit and how to fix it

Hope this helps anyone who is running a stock ROM on this phone and is frustrated with the 80-character SMS limit.

You may have tried an app such as ICS Messaging (available from the Play Store), but found that it won't send any SMS, though it might show received SMS.

This phone's stock SMS app (mms.apk) sends each character in double-byte to accommodate Korean characters, so the 160-character SMS limit is halved.

I found that if you save your own phone number to the "My Number" area on your SIM card (which is not done by default on many newer SIM cards), this somehow allows third-party apps to work, and allows the sending of SMS up to 160 chars - and more, if your operator supports it.

1. First, find an ancient phone, one that can write to the "My Number" area. Get a really old "dumbphone" such as an old Series 40 Nokia. BlackBerries work very well (I used a Curve). Or you could try an iPhone. (I'm sensing a joke here...)

2. Put your SIM card in and power up the phone.

3. Now, you need to write your own number to the SIM card.

On the Curve I went to Options > Advanced Options > SIM Card.

On the iPhone, it should be in Settings > Phone > My Number.

In the My Number area, enter your full phone number, including the country and area codes.

4. Exit and power off the phone. Put your SIM card back into the Vega Racer 2.

5. Go to the stock SMS app and try sending an SMS, preferably to a friend who is on a different network operator.

If it works, proceed to the next step.

6a: If you have root: Use Root Explorer to browse to /system/app and rename Mms.apk to something else, say, Mms.apkOriginalBackup.

Then install ICS Messaging from the Google Play Store.

Check that it works and that you can now send SMS longer than 80 characters. (N.B.: As I mentioned above, make sure your operator hasn't imposed any limits on SMS length.)

6b: If you don't have root (I didn't test this): You can't get rid of the stock messaging app, so just disable its notifications from within the app. Then install ICS Messaging from the Google Play Store. Check that it works.

If this solution helps anyone else please let us all know. (Also if any other messaging apps, such as Go SMS, work for you.)

hi guys, i hv a problem with the caller id identification.. my contacts are all appended with country code prefix (eg: +60, +61, +65) however, if there is incoming call, it wont show the caller name, instead... showing the number only without the country code prefix...

example:

my contact saved as: John - +60123456798

incoming call shown: 0123456789

Anyone knw how to fix this? I know i can extract all my contacts into excel and the append or remove the prefix... but i believe this is not a good and permanent solution to this problem...

I have done some researches, some said need to modify the phone.apk... but that is abit too risky for me...

I also have read some suggestions about installing the prefixer app from play... with that, u need to add in the rules to append the prefix infront of the incoming calls...

--------------------------------------------

I am looking for something like porting CM9 or CM10 dialer/contact/phone.apk into my a830k... so that i can have a dailer/contacts/ and incoming call interface and feature like CM9 or CM10...

How is the camera quality of A840
[Android General] Slayer_b:
Yes, the bloatware still present, but there is a patch to remove all of them just in one step.

Zeuik

Yes, it works but you get a roaming error while on this kernel if you flash it on 830L

I'll compile a separate kernel just for L in a few days, please, be patient :)

If you faced IO issue and want to try this fix, flash the attached zip and check your results. Consider creating a backup to roll back after testing due to roaming error, or you can continue using it if this error doesn't bother you :)

So, this is the fix, compiled for A830S. Main features:

Linaro optimisations

NEON optimizations

SIO scheduler

Added a lot of governors

Stock freq, no OC.

FIXED IO issue. Improved overall IO performance.
[Android General] Zeuik:
OK I know this

it would be OC? or compile a o/c kernel like you a830s 192~1900mhz kernel

this antutu score is very close to CM10'S SCORE~:cyclops:
[Android General] Slayer_b:
It has no overclock. But in my testings i was able to OC even GPU:) it's pretty unstable and I decieded to not release it public yet :)

Default scheduler is sio.
[Android General] willietck:
can u create a patch for 830K and L as well? i blif others are looking for this as well... im using K, but since im asking, might as well ask for others... :)
[Android General] Slayer_b:
S, K and L are not so similar as we thought.

There are about 60 different and unique files between kernel source of S and L. So, it needs much more time to integrate all my changes into these kernels. I'll try to do my best...
[Android General] BoyBawang2:
I have both A830 and A840. The one in A840 is a big improvement in low light conditions. I also noticed that both phones picture quality is sacrificed just to achieve the zero shutter lag. The solution is to download a free app camera360 and u will immediately notice even better quality and lesser blur.

[Android General] avatartorres:
I recommend the stock rom because it's the stablest rom now. If you want to use 4.1, the best roms are depending on your situation. If you want to have a beautiful ui, you should use miui because there are many brilliant customized lockscreens and desktop, but it's a little bit laggy and lack ram. If you want a little bit increased ram and smoother desktop, you can use CM10 Vietnamese version because the developer of Vietnamese version CM10 did some optimization. Compare with CM10 and miui, AOKP have nothing special.
