[HTC One X] pierreammoun:
Hello Guys

Till last week I was a happy user of HTC One X.

I had it rooted and installed and played around with few custom ROMS.

Then I started having issues mainly with the screen.

If it turns off (after a minute or so) then I could not make the phone wake up.

If I leave the phone ON (dont sleep) then I would have no pb...

I formatted , and reinstalled the RUU original of the device..and still the same problem

Now its gotten worse that sometime rebooting the device (while the screen is black !) doesnt work all the times (since I dont know what I am doing.. the screen is all black and the capacitive buttons are flashing...and turning on and off...)

then when i succeed into turning it on , then I have distorted screen (big time distortion) or sometimes I get a screen like a TV with no signal..

Please help me what to do...

I got it as second hand phone and it has no waranty...

Thanks.

Firefox (beta)!

I used Dolphin for a while but Firefox is now the best. Reasons why it's number one for me are:

-it's fast

-handles flash well

-syncs anything you want with Firefox on other devices (bookmarks on Dolphin are horrible)

-Ad-block add-on

-option to restore tabs from last time

-ablity to switch to desktop view

It's great for a beta release, only crashed once in a few days of use.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
You should check Aurora, the Mozilla test browser. Download it directly from Mozilla website, not in Play.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
haven't really tried all that much, but chrome has been pretty good to me ;o
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] omac_ranger:
If you're on ICS, Boat Browser has been my favorite. So fast, even with multiple tabs. If you're on JB then Chrome has been incredible. No hiccups or problems (minus having to select desktop mode every time before clicking on a bookmark).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] conquereddroiduser:
I am very impressed with the Firefox Beta at this point. I get less tiling than with ICS+ browser, and the interface is less cumbersome than boat browser imo. They did some very good work, I can't wait to get the finished product.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theandies:
Agreed, I have been running Boat since I found it. It is the fastest IMO. The only thing I've noticed with Boat is when you scroll up or down there is a slight lag before the page starts moving. Not that big of a deal though.

I'll give Firefox a try, I like it on my desktop.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Boat was my main browser a few months ago but it crashed way too often. Switched to Dolphin because of that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] omac_ranger:
Really? I never had issues with boat until JB.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] john9:
Firefox,Love it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avlon:
The new Firefox beta is awesome for all the reasons that the OP gave. It also anr's far less than chrome with multiple tabs open.

For those that like Chrome (I still do) but miss flash, here is a plugin that does help sidestep that problem:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nightshadelabs.anotherbrowser
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
Yup, Boat was my favourite but it kept crashing. Couldn't handle it

Firefox was terrible back then, laggy as hell, unstable. Complete 180, it's great now. Makes browsing on my Prime much better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ammurad:
Maxton ftw
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] catman51:
Firefox beta looked nice, but not one of the keyboards works with it?? I have Thumb and the built ins, and they wouldn't type one letter.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
I use dolphin with flash on request only. It runs smooth, few hang ups. like it because the search/tab bars disappear giving more space to the web page - do any other browsers offer that?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] omac_ranger:
Yeah Boat does that. You can customize it to display or not display tabs/toolbars.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alankstiyo:
Hi

I'm trying to paste some audio files inside the ringtone and notification folders but somehow even having it rooted and chaging the permissions to r/w no files can be placed there.

if there's any way to do it??? I come from an O3D and was able to do it, so this is a bit weird for me.

any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] _Kippo_:
Alright, I've been reading like mad here. I'm getting basically two sets of stories to the same question.

Q: Is there ANY hardware difference in the US/CAN models?

I'm aware of the INT Version, and the KOR version. But, for CAN/US despite different modem software. I assume the hardware is in fact identical? I know for example that my t-999v has the same FCC number as the us TMO version. If this is in fact the case then any s3 should work on any US or Canadian Carrier with some sort of modem hack?

I'd love to get your takes on this guys. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] pimpahlishis:
Canadian version is same as ATT version. Sprint and other CDMA carriers have different radios.
[HTC One S] magus57:
I just recently bought a Galaxy Nexus, and love it apart from the size (just barely too big to comfortably use one-handed for me - especially without a good case) and the camera quality (in certain regards, my old HTC G2's camera seems better)...and soon I'll be getting a One S for free (that black T-Mobile-employee-only one), and I'm heavily considering switching to it as my primary phone, but I have two concerns:

-Can it handle on-device 720p MKV's? I have no idea about bitrate/codecs/etc, all I know is that my Galaxy Nexus plays it fine (in software mode in MX Video Player) with audio and video in sync.

-Does rooting bypass the T-Mobile tethering plan requirement (and is it permanently or basically until they catch on anyway)? I really don't want to spend that extra $15/month if I don't have to, and my Galaxy Nexus hasn't given me any issues regarding tethering.

I'm hoping the one I'd get wouldn't have any issues, so I may end up keeping the Galaxy Nexus in case I need to send it back for whatever reason, but other than that, is there anything I need to know about the One S that I may not know?
[HTC One S] Mr.Mischief:
I'm curious about question two. I'll root my One S if that will allow me to tether on my $30 plan.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zigzagzen:
Hello forum! Recently my phone died due to unknown circumstances. I thought it might have been water damage so I disassembled the phone and swabbed the PCB with isopropol alcohol and left the phone in dry rice next to a heater for 24 hours. This didn't fix anything so I took it back to the store of purchase and asked to test a new battery. Success, the phone turned on with a new battery in, however, when it was put on charge, the phone became abnormally hot. I thought this may be due the new battery, but it wasn't. After a small period on charge the phone paused charging because the battery temperature was to hot, I removed it from the charger it had only accumulated 30% charge and 20 minutes later the battery level had dropped to 2%.

Someone has suggested I was sold an aftermarket battery, however at the time the person from the store claimed they had to get a battery from a new S2 box.

So, I'm a bit lost as what to do next, could flash stock firmware and take it to a samsung service center, but I'm more interested in a possible DIY fix and the knowledge that comes with it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zigzagzen:
Okay, yeah a return would probably be the best way to go about it. When I opened up the phone and had a look inside, the moisture indicators looked like a small white square with purple crosses on it. I would post a link, but new users with less than 10 posts cant post links.

But otherwise I think I'll follow your advice, and return to stock/un-root, I don't want to risk toasting the phone even further.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zigzagzen:
Have encountered more issues. Was in the process backing up phone. Turned off phone so I could reboot it into recovery and do a full wipe. But it refused to turn on, and doesn't show any signs of charging again.

So can't really return it to samsung or its place of purchase because it's still rooted.

What are the chances it the power IC that is malfunctioning?

I'm considering buying a charging/usb port from parts4repair, I've heard that the xda community has had good experiences with that website.

Any advice for a person in my situation? Bite the bullet and buy a second hand SII?

after you flash CWM recovery.

did you wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache?

wiping those before flashing new rom usually solve the problem.

i usually wipe data/factory reset too but doesn't require

i suggest you back up your un-corrupted efs folder contain your IMEI first before you flash anything.

dont be like me. =)

I just noticed that. I should be moved my bad :D

GSM arena doesn't have much info. I'm talking about vendor specific like how makes the BT chip wifi chip and model of that chip etc etc

Helpful in trying to see if it's possible to port a rom made for the S5570 and what needs to be changed.

EDIT: Requested mods to move it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] gabrielking9:
I think you need to get samsung sources for dart. I dont know if samsung release the sources to help developers like sony but you can try searching.

I am currently running CleanRom 4.2 (and this was happening on 4.1 too). My soft keys back lighting seems to be random. Typically the left one is always bright. The right one is sometimes dim and sometimes bright and the middle one is always dim if lit at all.

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Not a big issue just harder to see at night.

Mine have been kind of like that with the cleanrom series but a bit different. Sometimes the buttons dont even light up or come on randomly then shut off again.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsilliCoder:
Hey guys. I've been doing a bit of searching and have only been confused! I have an Evo4G from Sprint and I want to flash it over to be used on either Alltel or Cricket.

I say Alltel or Cricket, because from what i've been reading, there are alot of problems switching these phones to alltel..So i'm looking for suggestions from you guys as far as which to flash. Either will be fine, I just want whichever will work best.

Also, I have found a lot of information about PRL's..But i'm still confused as how to flash to one of these services. The phone is already rooted and running ICS (4.0.3)

So please guys, any information will be greatly appreciated! I'm doing this for a friend and was suppose to have it done by tomorrow, but i've been having so much trouble. I've never done anything like this on a CDMA network. I can normally unlock a phone and pop a sim card into it. I know from reading that I will have to flash some alltel files to it..I'm just having issues finding the correct files and a working guide.

Oh and in case location matters, (if i'm not mistaken other carriers own alltel in certain areas,) i'm in Western North Carolina
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KommodoreHeinz:
Here is the guide I use. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=934417

You will use qspt to flash the prl to your phone. You will need to be on a Sense 1.0 rom, or a Sense rom that has ##codes working.

As for MMS, I have never been able to get it to work, with new apns, gosms or any other way that's on the net. However I did find a solution that costs $5, and it works. Lemme see if I can find it again.

you can use pretty much any modern Sense rom. Sense 3.0 and below seem to be best with getting MMS to work. Haven't made it work with Sense 3.5+ or any AOSP roms yet.

I must say I enjoy using thumb keyboard for the customization.

What are you guys using

You can customize it so if you have longer fingers you can push the keys out to the default. I have small hands so I had to close it in some :)

Thumb Keyboard for me. I've had it since my Nook Color and have enjoyed it on phones, the NC, and now the N7.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] parrot5:
You can split the keyboard on the iPad like the first screenshot above.

Back to the topic, I used to like Swype on the Android phones because I can then type (swipe) with one hand. But on the 5 inch and now 7 inch devices, I'm looking at an alternative. Thanks for the screenshots above I'll try out the thumb keyboard.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] firehazard:
How does SwiftKey 3 Tablet differ from SwiftKey 3? I have SK3 on my N7 and I can't say that the typing experience is very good, but I love it on my GN.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] muzzy996:
Both versions of swiftkey are buggy on the nexus 7. For whatever reason touch responsiveness differs when using them to the point where one has to be extra careful while typing making it less efficient than on phones. The worst part is when trying to type in a Google search field in chrome and swiftkey and Google's auto fill seem to engage in a fierce battle of predictions leaving you wanting to throw the damn tablet against a wall. Backspace inputs become a fruitless exercise eventually leading to you just starting all over again.

I really like swiftkey on my HTC one x, so hopefully they will sort these things out on the nexus 7.

I bought SwiftKey tablet with the$25 I got from the play store.

I am using Smart Keyboard Pro and I like it quite a bit, they have a trail version so you can try it out. Dont forget to go trough the settings as the defaults are not the greatest if you ask me. After playing with it for ~10 min I have it exactly the way it want it.

I have had no problems with SwiftKey 3 tab on mine.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Malikai_:
Agreed 100%. Been using SwiftKey phone version. I do most of my typing in portrait anyway. Since I've already forked out for this version, I decided to go with it since it's compatible. The Google auto fill issue seems to happen on my S3 as well. Hoping SwiftKey gets this worked out...
