[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marmalux:
Baseband is the software for the CDMA cgipset in your phone (GSM and wirelles). Baseband version represents the software version and offcourse like any software is best to have the latest software . Now, the latest baseband for arc / arc s is BB72... but from my personal experience for better battery life BB70 is the best.

Now, be carefull before flashing any baseband, Kernel and Rom is dependent on this baseband, and certain combinations (basebands and roms) might not work .

Here is my configuration, which i find the best posible :

Baseband : 70

Kernel : Arc night 3.3 Stock or Sirkay if you want OC

Rom : JJ`s Hybrid Rom 3.2 stable
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigermess:
not the latest is the best, it's location specific! See Flashing a baseband and why you should do it. Optimum baseband means harmony between battery life and signal reception. Try to look in the thread for your location, if it is not there, try experimenting with various basebands (make few phone calls before switching to another). For custom ROMs its best to ask its developer.

Does anyone use this battery? I've found it on Amazon for £12.99 but would it be worth getting this or buying the official extended 2000mah battery with back cover for £17?

Does anyone use either of them? If so, are they worth it?

I've really enjoyed removing all the extraneous crap from my phone using Titanium Backup and have experienced greatly improved battery life as a result.

That said, I'd like to get rid of the Mobile Hotspot icon from my apps since I'm using an alternate tethering app. Does anyone know how to achieve this? I noticed on my wife's Droid Razr that the app is simply Mobile Hotspot in TiBu but I have no such or similar entries on my VZW SGS3.

I was supposed to get a new number from cricket but when I call someone its my sprint number...I know it needs to be programmed, but what would cause it not to program? Would it be that I flashed a different radio awhile back ago? He said the prl was the newest...are the prl and radio be the same thing?

S5830 is already a budget phone.

So what is a budget version of a budget phone?

But S5830 is already a budget phone.

So how can it be a budget version of a budget phone??? :mad:

Its the same price as the original Ace and Samsung calls it an "Upgraded version"

[Atrix 4G General] brogdonbr:
I have an ATT Atrix (MB860), rooted, running Jokersax 7.0.0. Now that the lapdocks have really fallen in price, I am considering getting one. Here is what the scenario I envision:

Phone is in SmartphoneUI when it isn't docked.

When phone is docked, it automatically switches to TabletUI.

From the forum searching that I've done, I've seen people who install Ubuntu as a replacement Webtop. I've heard rumors that TabletUI was going to be the new Webtop. As near as I can tell, I lost Webtop when I went to ICS from stock/Blur. I hate Blur, by the way--and some customized based off of Blur seem to have cool Webtops.

I tried simply resetting the LCDensity manually down to 120 and then 144, but when I do, the system restarts, I get the Cyanogenmod spash sequence, and then a popup that says "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped." Everything on the screen looks like it is 240 pixel density, until I bring up a keyboard, and the letters are huge (and off the screen).

So, am I doing something wrong? Am I missing a step or two? Do I need to download some more stuff? Or, is seemlessly switching from Tablet UI to Smartphone UI a feature request that I know better than to bug devs about?

Many thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] nerfman100:
You need a ROM that supports it. Unfortunately, ROMs like this aren't being made, due to ROMs like Paranoid Android.
[Atrix 4G General] chrism.brunner:
I use nottachtrix latest. It's great. Worth trying. If you don't like blur, use spb shell or another launcher.
[Atrix 4G General] brogdonbr:
What do you mean? Are you saying that because of the popularity of Paranoid Android, all the devs are working on it? Just a bit confused.

Thanks!
[About XDA developers] AvRS:
Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone else is getting this problem today or if it's just me.

I logged on this morning as I do everyday and when I tried replying to someone it told me I'm not logged in, so I typed in my details again and that same page continued to show until I shut my browser and opened another session. This let me log in but still when I try to reply to a post or even when I tried to view my control panel it logged me out and wouldn't allow me back in until I started a new browser session.

I've been monitoring it during my lunch time session and have had to close down and re-login multiple times but noticed also when looking through threads it was logging me out and in automatically from page to page.

I've tried both chrome and IE and both behave the same way. Thankfully I was able to post this so am hoping it stops doing it.

If it makes any difference I'm on the 2013 theme and I've never had this happen before today.

Thanks
[About XDA developers] mikef:
I am using Firefox and I haven't seen that problem except at the very beginning of my time here last year, and then just a few times until it cleared up.
[About XDA developers] AvRS:
It seems when I have the "Remember me" box unchecked the problem arises but since ticking the box it isn't happening. I don't generally have remember me ticked while on work PC's but as said never happened before so hopefully just a glitch on my side.

Thanks
[About XDA developers] Woody:
I am getting it too on my work PC (who knows what browser they use, it so filtered) but I also got that on my home PC (Firefox).

Frankly, it is making it unusable for me atm b/c I have to do all the steps you said above just to post. If I want to post multiple times in different threads, it can take more time to post the message than it did to type it. I've resorted to typing the message, then copying it and hitting post just to be kicked out, re-log in and clear caches/cookies and paste and post. It is a real PITA.

I've tried on 2010, 2013b and 2013b1024 just in case it was a theming issue. Am not having that problem on any other forums or outside internet sites that I have logged into but I have noticed it over the past two days, as well.
[About XDA developers] AvRS:
Did you try ticking "Remember me" when logging in as sorted it for me, I just had to remember to log out when I finished.
[About XDA developers] Woody:
Well, let's see here.

Edit: No dice. Logged me out again. Tried it with Remember Me ticked and unticked.

Edit2: In fact, I just went to my tablet forums and it showed me as logged out. Then I clicked the XDA in the top corner to come back to this thread and it shows me as logged in. Must be ghosts in the machine.

Edit3: Now it is showing me as logged in right now, so I tried to go to the RC forums and got denied. Pulled up my phone forums in the Find Your Device (because I thought it might be something to do with my favorites/bookmarks) and it shows me as logged off. If I open the About XDA-Developers page, I am logged in.

Edit4: Sorry about these edits. I am only logged into THIS THREAD and not About XDA-Developers. I just got a PM and can't read it b/c it logs me out.
[About XDA developers] Deleted member 663166:
I've been experiencing this since Tuesday morning. Both in Chrome and Firefox. I've changed nothing and log in the same way as always. Happens when I try to reply and view my subscriptions. Tapatalk is the only way I can view and reply to anything right now.

Same here guyz.... Have tried different browsers on different operating systems.... Same thing.... Anybody found the reason.... Or a solution?
[About XDA developers] krackers:
This is happening to me too. I can get on once in every 100 attempts. I have tried everything, including changing browser, ip, computer, switching to xda 2010 and back, and ticking the remember me.
[About XDA developers] The-Last-Hylian:
It's been happening to me for the last few days, I just ticked remember me, now I'm in for once!
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
The solution for this is to click the "Remember me" box when logging in. This is an issue that seems to have arisen due to a change in infrastructure on our end (I believe). It doesn't seem to impact all accounts however, just some of them.

If anyone has this issue after checking the "Remember me" box, please let me know.
[About XDA developers] nagpalkapil:
Yes happening to me. If I clean everything in history of my browser, any browser, it logs me once. Immediately like I would post now it would log me out. It is happening in all the browsers with my account.

After getting logged out. When I again try to login, it would show a popup showing you are being logged in as nagpalkapil but would again not log e in and come out until I clean everything from history again including cookies etc. Has started happening for just last two days and was perfect before. Please help urgently on it.

Upgraded to the AT&T stock ROM till a JB ROM comes out.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rich250:
My voice is still a female on ICS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Google navigation requires the TTS voice match the phone language. Android settings > language & input > select language

If you have various TTS engines installed you can select them on the same language & input menu. The Rogers ICS ROM only comes with the default Google TTS engine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Honeybadger:
I checked and it is set for English American, no ability to download language packs.

Maybe try British?

Well thanks all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
I don't know if it is the Note, ICS, or just the lack of quality TTS engines but voice choice we do not. Google TTS just sucks and you can't change anything about it. I used to use Loquendo but it is not supported in ICS yet. I just tried Ivona (Kendra voice) TTS and it is a great improvement. The app is free and the voice is a free beta at the moment. I also heard SVOX is good too.

But if you want to change your navigational voice seems the only way is with changing phone language or by changing your TTS engine.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeritoX:
Hello guys,

My friend wrote a small book, he has it in a PDF form. It's about 60MBs. I want a way to publish it as an Android app, so people can download it and read his book. The app is technically extremely simple as it only shows this PDF.

Any idea how to create this app minding that we never created any application before?

Thanks.
[HTC One X] Atraeh:
Hello everyone!

First of all, I would like to apologize, as these kind of issues have probably been talked about and solved a gazillion of times before, but the thing is, I'm having a hard time grasping the start and the end of this issue myself, as the phone that is stuck in a boot-loop isn't mine - it belongs to a friend of mine who somehow managed to get the whole thing bricked.

Anyhow, I'll start off with what I know;

His goal was to flash a new ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601543). He unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone using these instructions; http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/how-to-root-one-x/). He succeeded in doing so and decided to move onto flashing the rom.

But the problems started when he read that he's first supposed to flash "Android Fastboot kit 2.1" onto the device, prior to flashing the device. And so he did. Or well, tried - what he told me was that he booted the phone into fastboot mode, then ran the "Install Boot.img" bat file inside the Fastboot Kit folder he downloaded and after that, the phone got bricked.

Now, my knowledge in this area isn't too great either, but I've flashed a few ROMs in my life before, so, I decided I'd do my best to help. But I have no clue on what steps he should take from here on.

To my understanding, he was running the official 1.29 version and he is still able to access the boot-loader as well as Clockwork Recovery mod. To my understanding, he didn't create a back-up of his previously working ROM and the phone won't show up in Windows Explorer while connected via USB either.

To my limited understanding, I should now try and install the rom onto his phone and once done, the whole thing should work - the only problem with that is the fact I can't get the ROM zip onto the SD Card right now, as explorer won't recognize it. So far, I tried using ADB to push the ROM file onto the phone, but every time I use the command "adb shell mount /sdcard" I get a "Device not foound" error. So, I'm kinda stuck here right now. If this even is the right way to solve the issue, that is.

So, like I said, I'm having a hard time grasping the start and the end of this issue myself, and if there is any additional information needed, I'll do my best to find out more about it - I do have the phone in my possession at the moment as well.

Thanks a lot to anyone who'll offer any kind of help!
[HTC One X] BenPope:
The latest Clockwork jobby will allow you to mount the sdcard as USB drive.

Other than that, you seem to be on the right track.
[HTC One X] walaway:
^ he's right

What you want to do is first download the 5.8.4.0 version of the endeavoru CWM recovery.

reboot to your bootloader, make sure you're in fastboot and flash the new recovery img.

After you have successfully flashed the new recovery, well... go to the recovery

On the recovery, tap mounts and storage, then tap Mount USB. VOILA!!!!!
[HTC One X] Atraeh:
Yeah, I forgot to mention that I've already tried mounting the SD Card via Clockwork Recovery - I get an error saying "Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory exists). So that doesn't seem to be an option either, unless you have an idea on how to counter this? :)

EDIT: Ah, I see - he's using an older version. I'll get the latest one on board and give it a go. Will have to wait a bit for the phone to charge up first it seems though. Not enough battery to do it right now :p.

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Atraeh:
And voila! The phone is operational.

Thanks a lot for the help and, I just hope I never manage to half-brick my own HOX :D.

[Asus Transformer TF700] oo3:
Flipboard is good, however I prefer viewing in landscape mode. That is the only reason why I still use Currents.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kimusubi:
Last time I checked, Flipboard is not available for this tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Splaktar:

[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
And the award for the fastest hijacking goes to......... "Google Currents lags" Thread. haha

I suggest that someone start a thread for what news app do you use (and please put up a poll, unlike the launchers thread, otherwise you get 100 responses that say "feedly" or "Flipboard"

Ok, back to the point of this thread :) I have used Google Currents on a couple different devices and its a terrible application. Its slow, clunky and difficult to navigate. Also, it takes up a TON of space over a short time. So yes, Google Currents lags.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Goes to ian1 he didn't even bother with the question.

I have no problems with currents beside the lag. Which is IMO not because of cached rubbish. I can take a video of what I mean.

The only other thing which I would like to have, is the option to hide read articles.
