[General Questions and Answers] vipfreak:
So, I know about the Wimm One, the Sony sports one, and the motorola one. Those aren't exactly what I'm looking for. I do a lot of walking at work sometimes during the week and my Samsung Note does fine for it, but it's a bit bulky to pull it out everytime I need to look at the screen. Batt life isn't much an issue thankfully. Is there such a device that...

1. can play music directly from the device

2. connects to a bluetooth headset

3. has a Micro SD card storage up to 32gb

4. has decent batt life

5. minor I suppose connect to my phone for txt and other notifications while still being connect to my BT headset (dunno if this is possible)

Thanks for your help.

Android mp3 players and other small devices

What maximum size screen screen size can you accept? I am not familiar with the products you mentioned, but it seems you are looking for the Android equivalent of an iPod Touch, which has a 3.5" diagonal screen. (I would not want a screen smaller, even for just an mp3 player.)

There are models of Android tablets with 5" or smaller screens. IMO, If an Android device has a screen large enough to function as a decent mp3 player, there is no point to limiting it to only playing mp3s, so I suggest you look for small Android tablets, game consoles, pocket computers and mp3 or media players.

I did a quick search, and Archos has some Android tablets with small screens that they sell as multimedia players in the range of $150-200, as well as smaller models (I found one with a 2" screen) that may not run Android. (They don't say, so I assume not.)

Also, there are the Samsung Galaxy Players, with screen sizes down to 3.6". They run Android and look a lot like an iPod Touch. ;) The prices I'm seeing are about $130-150, which seem quite reasonable.

I did not check if any of the above support Bluetooth headsets or SD card storage; I just wanted to give you some ideas of where and how to start looking. I hope that was helpful, and didn't just tell you things you already knew.

Also, if you find a model that has Bluetooth, make sure it supports headsets before buying. ;-) I hope someone here can give you a specific product recommendation!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lathamc:
Once Sprint officially rolls out 4G LTE, will their 3G signal and data speeds improve?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bonebeatz1234:
I hope so they turned the switch to a few more markets.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidGnome:
That would totally depend on the market you're in.

The teams that are going around putting in the 4G upgrade are doing multiple things depending on the market.

For example, I asked this question specifically to a sprint tech the other day when purchasing my S3.

I live in Miramar/Pembroke Pines Florida (Just West of FtLauderdale).

Signal here is great in some spots (near I-75 or the turnpike) and almost non-existent anywhere else. Hell the other day I saw the nice little "Hey you're now roaming" message on my S3 (I never saw that on my Evo, though the signal was horrible).

The tech said that they are in fact upgrading EVERYTHING in my area, 3G, normal phone cellular and 4G LTE (they said the wimax would not be upgraded of course). It took them a minute to find the info as they had to look it up for my specific area to see what is and is not being upgraded.

She mentioned specifically that it wasn't just upgrading the current towers, but putting in more to improve coverage in areas such as Plantation, pembroke and Miramar specfically.

So my advice is to either wait and see what happens, or try to contact sprint and find out about your area.

I tried doing a Factory Data Reset in the settings menu and CWM factory reset and wipe. The phone still has all app data and folders for stuff. What gives??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
A CWM wipe protects the internal "SDcard" so that people don't delete their music and pictures when switching ROMs. You have to wipe that too to get rid of everything.

What do you mean " would i be able to swap all the files to an external memory card or would i need to create new partitions or anything?"

When you get your Note back it'll be as good as new with all data wiped and you'll be able to do whatever you could do with it the first time you got it.

Hi,

I flashed according to the instructions in :[ROM] (4/15/12) KlassicROM 2.3.6 for YP-G1 USA + INTL [R5: FINAL to my YP-G1.

It looks like everything works, however, home button doesn't work on my USA device.

I guess I flashed [ROM] Klassic R5 USA and Steve's kernel for US device.

How can I fix this problem ? I have seen people talk about that and maybe it is fixed, but I can't find the solution.

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
Try either flashing a different kernel. I use Klins Klassi Kernel R3 (which is based on Steve's Kernel and has all it's functionality + more). Wipe Data/factory reset. Or Reflash Klassic R5 again.

I have never used Miui Roms, so i can talk about it with certainty, but roms take a while to settle...at least a week after flashing it to assess the battery life.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teichopsia:
Phone getting hot is not normal with any rom. I would say download the rom again, full wipe, install a few basic apps and check what happens.

If it still gets hot try a different rom.

If it still gets hot after that, it could be a hardware problem.

Hi, man a guide to use mybackup pro isn't really necessary. Get the app on g. play and you'll see.

Just run the app and make a backup of data and apps. It'll be copied to sdcard. flash the rom I've posted earlier after doing a factory reset and erasing internal memory. then reinstall mybackup pro and restore your stuff.

Is that simple.

I'm prety sure you can do the same with TIBU but I think mybackup pro much more pratical.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ark3typ3:
I was attempting to install Cyanogen Mod 9 RC2 on my HTC G2 (Vision - Tmobile Branded) and before I did, I decided to flash a "new" recovery from clockwork. I broke my own rule and used Rom Manager and it seems like the recovery partition is now completely screwed up. Either that or my system is now read only.

I am able to access recovery, bootloader, and even the OS (can still make calls) but if I uninstall an application it will come back on the next boot up such as facebook or even the rom manager. I tried to load PC10IMG from the bootloader, but it only finishes the radio_v2 then it reboots and gets caught in a boot loop. If I go back to try again, it starts over as if no changes were made. Worse still, I've gone as far as to erase the recovery partition only to have it come right back.

I am still showing as S-OFF, but I can't seem to get any changes to stick and I'm not getting any error messages ever. Infact, clockworkmod seems all to eager to say "Install success" when I try to flash another rom or wipe cache & data. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue?

ROM: CM 7.1

Recovery: 5.0.2.7 CWM

I've been at this for a day now and I"m fed up with it, any insight would be a huge help.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wileykat:
I would try to reflash recovery thru adb then download fresh rom to install. Not sure if there is any other troubleshooting you could do 1st though.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
better yet how about dropping clockwork for 4ext, in mine and many others experience it is far superior on our g2s. and if you insist on clockwork, try to stay away from rom manager. don't flash a pc10img either, if you do the wrong one and there is a radio error you can easily brick your phone (many people with soff seem to think this is a good idea but it can be a terrible one)

then reflash a new rom, if you like cm7 I suggest elitemod cm7, but the choice is yours

never heared of these specific problems with all my years in android but I'm sure you will be happy with the changes I suggested and unless I'm missing something this should also fix your problems
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Well you can't exactly flash 4EXT without first having the app to download and install it for you.

But here is the zip file for 4EXT Touch Recovery 1.0.0.5 RC5 specifically for the G2/DZ, which can be renamed to PC10IMG.zip and placed on the SD card to be flashed via fast boot (it contains ONLY the recovery, it won't flash over hboot, radio or any of that).

http://xlu.be/g2/4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC5.zip

MD5 (4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC5.zip) = dfc5dc1e4aee18fdea6268345e3dad22

I never did find a place 'online' to download the recovery images direct, only thru the app was I ever able to download it to my Zip card. (PS: I recommend getting the paid version of the Recovery control from the Google Play market place to support the developer, it'll also let you set options like not backing up the caches).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
not @ a comp right now but you can get the image and flash through fastboot, I did this to try it out free, liked it so much right away so I purchased the app through the market just to support the dev. but either way, its all prefrence
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ark3typ3:
I tried to flash the recovery img that kbeezie gave me both through PC10IMG.zip (verified MD5) and again through fastboot flash with just the straight img from inside the zip. Neither method worked and now I'm caught in a boot loop until I pull the battery. I've even gone as far as to erase the recovery, do you think formatting the recovery and then flashing again would yield better results?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
A boot loop trying to boot normally? or trying to boot into recovery. If you haven't flashed a ROM yet, then naturally you would need to go into the Recovery to do so first.

Are you aware of how to get into Recovery?

PS: NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER 'erase' the recovery, you should always have a recovery on there, if you can't get anything going with fast boot then you're probably going to be screwed. Furthermore how did you even 'erase' it ?

You should be able to simply flash the recovery, reboot, hold volume down + power to get into recovery, do a factory reset/wipe, and flash a new rom form SD card.

Play it safe and provide A LOT more information in your next reply.

1) What's your hboot info (the whole boot loader screen, including radio version).

2) What did you do exactly?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Fastboot is the safest method for flashing recoveries (or radio or spls) how did you go about it with fastboot? When in fastboot mode type

fastboot devices

If you see yours continue

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot bootloader

Of course you have to point fastboot to the place the recovery image is, and either name it recovery.img or change the command

When you do this do you get an error or is all seemingly well until you try and boot into recovery?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ark3typ3:
All is seemingly well, it just won't allow any other recoveries but CWM. If I put CWM (5.0.2.7) on it gives me recovery back but when I try to flash a different rom it just stays at Cyanogen 7.1 (Even though it says it succeeded). Trying the 4EXT recovery got rid of CWM, but I can't boot it because it gets stuck in a boot loop until I pull the battery to clear the recovery flag.

I used the exact commands you described and it says it succeeds...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Did you make sure to do a Factory Reset and Wipe (within the Recovery) before applying Cyanogenmod or a different recovery? (flashing a recovery without first wiping will of course sort of 'mix' up whatever you had on there plus new stuff, and as such would break it).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
wiping from within recovery will not wipe recovery, the only way to "wipe" recovery is to erase recovery, which isn't a good idea. if you want to ever change recoveries just flash the new one over the old, there will not be a conflict.

as to your continued problem I suggest logging on to freenode #g2root, if there is a chance to fix your phone you'll have the best luck there as testing can be done in real time
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ark3typ3:
Yes I did wipe, I also have tried CM7.2, CM9 RC1 (Build 2), and CM7.1 (current) and they all have the same result. They succeed installation, then they get stuck in a boot loop, then if I pull the battery, it boots up fine with all my settings as if I had never done any of it.

I'm looking for a brute force way to wipe the OS and start completely fresh without harming fastboot or recovery. I'm leaning towards it being a hardware issue, but the issue is a bit confusing because everything is succeeded and I'd have expected an error message of some kind...
