Hi guys, I hate ads push notification so I disabled every possible ad option I could find.

I even disabled the Google AdMob Ads in the playstore settings.. I also installed "Air Push Detector" to detect apps that pushing ads in the notification bar.

My question is, why I can still received push notification ads from "Com2us" and "Rage of bahamutt" games? Their apps is not even listed in the Air Push Detector App..

A moment ago I received a push notification about free gems of Inotia 4. I wonder where this came from as I checked the services running and cached and there's no inotia4 services/cache like program running in the background.

How can they push notification if I'm not even running their program and there's no trace of backround process running?

Could someone enlighten me on this.

PS: I like their games so I dont want to uninstall them..

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thunderbox:
I have a standard unlocked UK SGS2.

It has been running ICS since its official Samsung update, and for the past week or so has been displaying a "firmware update available" message.

Today I tried to run the update via Kies. The update hung with the SGS2 displaying the "downloading - do not disconnect target" screen. Eventually, Kies displayed a message that the download had failed, and the phone should be disconnected and rebooted.

Rebooting the phone has given the "handset-exclamation mark - PC" screen.

I have so far tried:

a) following Kies instructions to the letter;

b) switching USB ports on the PC (running Win 7 pro 64);

c) trying the "hold volume up&down + on/off buttons; at second flash release power button", etc;

Nothing has worked and the phone appears bricked.

How can I resolve this. It must be a common problem, given the millions of these handsets out there. Unfortunately i am currently overseas and in the middle of a desert - so not able to go to a Samsung service centre to get help!

Completely shutdown Kies via the Task Manager.

Completely Shut Down Phone. Now hold volume down+home+power buttons, You should see a warning asking you to press volume up if you want to continue or volume down to cancel, press volume up. You are now in download mode

Connect your phone to your pc via cable. Fire up Odin. The box below ID:COM will be yellow.

Click on PDA and select the .tar.md5 file extracted in first step.

Click Start. Let Finish. Do not disconnect wire until you see 'Pass'.

If phone bootloops, shut down phone. Now hold volume Up+Home+Power buttons. Do a Factory Reset. Restart.

Let know if this works.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carson_ls:
I knew the kies is not the proper way to update the latest firmware and always giving a problem! When the downloading firmware on kies are almost finish there is always an error such as " hang" or " internet disconnected " ! The smarter way is to use odin3 :good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graemeg:
Its not a major issue, this isnt a brick, its a softbrick, big difference, just means ya flash failed, could be a million reasons for that,

AS DESCRIBED above, this is a simple fix by downloading and flashing the appropriate stock firmware for your phone via odin again in download mode.

your phone will go to download mode so dont worry about that, if it hasnt gone to dl mode when attempted, pull the battery, leave it out 10 mins, put it back in and try again, failing that a usb jig will suffice, see post on who and where will share their jig if you dont have one, there may be someone near you.

CAUTION, dont try flashing any of the latest leaks on your phone, just choose whatever the last stock release was by your carrier on samfirmware, and flash that as that will be your latest firmware.

I never use kies to update, simply use ota, or download the rom and flash it, kies is very unreliable, this is where HTC and SE beat samsung, the download and recovery methods are so much simpler and they work.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lp4u:
HI all.

Well here is my problem. I am from Mauritius and wishes to buy the Nexus 7 16gb.

However seeing the problems such as dead pixel, spongy left side, etc, i was wondering if I should wait for the new batch of N7 from google or buy one right away from eBay.

The problem lying with the fact that if I have a defective unit, I will not be entitled for a refund or whatsoever. Even if that would be the case, I would have to send back the item which will be costly and defeats the very purpose of trying of having a N7.

Please do let me have your opinion on should I buy one from eBay now or wait for new wave of N7 from Google?

You'll want to contact ASUS and ask them yourself, but you should be able to. It would depend on how much you're covered by any consumer protection laws in your country (but if you ask nicely they might arrange something for you anyway).

long press power button until tab turns off, then go to recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache, re flash cm9 and gapps.. it should take a couple of minutes to boot the first time.

[HTC One V] DesertTiger:
Hi everyone,

I'm new to modding and can't wait to get started. Can anybody simplify or expound in detail the instructions below

to a noob like me

Instructions:

1. Extract boot.img from the myONEv RC3.0.zip for the kernel. (Where exactly do I put it?)

2 Boot into bootloader - fastboot flash boot boot.img - fastboot reboot-bootloader - fastboot erase cache (How do I do this?)

3. Boot into recovery - flash myONEv RC3.0.zip (How?)

Thanks,

Noob
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
Before we can advise details on the above questions, you need to answer these questions first:

1) Is your phone bootloader unlocked ?

2) Do you have CWM or TWRP recovery installed ?
[HTC One V] DesertTiger:
MyOneV

Hi,

I have unlocked my bootloader and Clockworkmod ;)
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
I believe you do have fastboot.exe that you use to unlock bootloader.

Put the myONEv RC3.0 in your sdcard.

1. Extract boot.img from the myONEv RC3.0.zip for the kernel. (Where exactly do I put it?)

Take out the boot.img from the zip and put it in the fastboot folder where you have the fastboot.exe

2 Boot into bootloader - fastboot flash boot boot.img - fastboot reboot-bootloader - fastboot erase cache (How do I do this?)

Open CMD prompt and CD to your fastboot folder and do the step:

fastboot flash boot boot.img <enter>

fastboot erase cahe <enter>

3. Boot into recovery - flash myONEv RC3.0.zip (How?)

Press power button once, you'll be in hboot

use the volume button to select recovery

press power to go to recovery

- install zip from sdcard

- choose zip from sdcard

scroll down to pick myONEv RC3.0.zip

scroll to chose Yes - Install myONEv_RC3.0.zip

and follow the installation process. Once complete, reboot

enter all details for setup, you are done.
[HTC One V] DesertTiger:

Thaank you!
[HTC One V] DesertTiger:

Whoops, when I select recovery, the phone restarts. There is no option that allows me to "install zip from sdcard" :(

Which Version of Mimicry.

How did you flash it?

Did you do a full wipe (factory-reset) and wipe of Cache/Dalvik-Cache before flashing the new rom?

What options did you choose when installing mimicry (Virtuous OC? SuperChargerV6?)

Did you try wiping the browser's cache data? (i.e.: from manage app area).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noufel:
Latest version

I flashed it via from manager and yes I did wipe the dalvik cache/cache.

I chose virtuous oc,v6 supercharger

I haven't tried to wiping the browser cache data trying it now.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
By the way for future reference, "Latest Version" is a very poor response, since some people may think they're on the latest version, or latest version just got upgraded, or in some cases the thread may age. So it's always best to literally post the exact version rather than some relative term.

And yes wiping the app's own cache from "manage app" (under system settings), is usually a common fix for browsers that are hung up.

Hi,

I was wondering which of the two should be better?

On the one hand - cases like otterbox defender/balistix come with a nice looking plastic screen protector that seems pretty storng compare to a normal sticker, but on the other hand it makes the case much thicker.

How thick is the Tredent aegis compare to the defender?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bill3508:
The plastic protectors let tons of dust underneath it. Especially the otterbox. The ballistic is better but will still have the same problem. Running sg maxx with hd stick on currently.

[Nexus 7 General] Sdobron:
The email they sent says I will likely be charged 15% fee and the shipping because it's open.

Spoke with play store rep and he said they will forward my concerns to a specialist. It's ridiculous that this charge is not returned automatically. If they end up not refunding it I will have to run a credit card dispute.

Anyone else had a similar situation? Did Google refund all your money? This is enough to make me never order from Play Store again
[Nexus 7 General] Hemidroids:
You left out the details. Tell us the whole story.

Nobody charges a REstocking fee for a defective device. They dont restock them.

If you just didnt like it then they have a valid claim.

BTW this is CLEARLY mentioned in the agreement you entered into.
[Nexus 7 General] ExploreMN:
The e-mail probably says "If no defect is found, there will be a 15% restocking fee."

That's pretty common for electronics because there are so many people that use companies to "rent" tech gear for a weekend, vacation, etc. and then try to return it when they are done. Back about 15 years ago when I worked at Best Buy, that was the reason digital cameras, camcorders, and laptops had that kind of policy. Otherwise the store would take a pretty big loss on people doing stupid crap like that. Imagine every knucklehead who bought a camcorder for say $500 (at the time) and then returned it after their vacation saying they didn't like it or whatever...well, the company probably only made about $25 profit on the camcorder to begin with. Now they have to pay a tech roughly 1/2 pay to check the unit from end to end to make sure everything works correctly, etc. Then they have to sell it as an "open box" item which would normally be a 10% markdown. So basically they sell at a loss of $25-35 just because someone wants to abuse the return policy. Hence, a restock fee of 15% to cover those costs.

So if you send a fully working unit back to Google and you lie about it being "defective" then they have to sell it marked down as refurbished, pay someone to very a defect that is or isn't there, etc. They are already selling these at no profit from what I understand...I think a clause like that is perfectly reasonable.
[Nexus 7 General] wynand32:
Agreed, 99%. The proof will be in the pudding, however, in this sense: what does Google consider a "defect"? Is a tiny bit of screen lift a defect, or normal manufacturing variance? To Google, it might be construed as the latter. To us, it's something that could get worse over time and end up causing major problems.

Same thing with the serious color temp variation I've now seen on two units. My original had what I hope is the "normal" color temp, which is a bit cool but that provides decently "white" whites and good contrast. The replacement (for screen lift and a dead pixel on the original) has a much, much warmer screen, with a dingy yellow tint and significantly less contrast. Whites on it look like there's a thin layer of urine between the glass and the LCD--gross, I know, but the best way to describe it. In fact, it's the first thing my wife said when she saw the two sitting side-by-side--"Did someone pee on the one on the left, or something?"

Would Google argue that this is acceptable, that's it's just "warmer" and within specs? Perhaps. Would I be "lying" in saying it's defective? I'd say not. And that's where Google's commitment to customer satisfaction comes in. They can be picky and charge me the 15% restocking fee, thus making it far less likely that I ever buy from them again, or they can let it go and keep a customer. And given all of the very real issues with this, and the fact that people are going through multiple units (and hassle, and setup, and loss of Play Music device deactivations if they tested music on them, etc.) to get good ones means that really, Google should just accept returns without too much hassle or they risk making a bad situation worse.

We'll see, because I'm sending the replacement back and getting another for that reason specifically.
