[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlwaysDroid:
Hey guys, I have a folder on my sd card called /RootFiles where all of my files for rooting go. Almost all i download from online is stuff like kernels roms etc, so i want it all to go to the /RootFiles folder. Can i symlink downloads so everything i dowload goes there? Anything else i download i will move manually since there is not that much. So if someone could tell me the terminal/adb code that would be awesome.

Thanks!

Any suggestions please? :crying:

Tried with different sim cards. the signal bars just a cross sign. cannot read any sim cards
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kinghorsey:
Does it actually not recognize the sim card? As in it indicates on the screen "no sim card" or similar type message?

Or has it simply failed to load any APN settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Or no modem? What does settings >about phone >baseband say?

i just got the same issue. Baseband is 'Unknown". Ive been trying to find a way to fix this. any guides would be appreciated.

Use CWM recovery and reflash your modem of choice. I'm guessing you flashed the Blaze 4g modem.

We have been keeping a little secret.. the kind that is so much fun to share when the time comes.

XBMC for Android.

As it is popular in top box and in iphone

Now it is rocking on Galaxy Note and Galaxy s3 and HTC one X

¤ Not a remote, not a thin client; the real deal. No root or jailbreak required.

¤ XBMC can be launched as an application on your set-top-box, tablet, phone, or wherever else Android may be found.

¤ The feature-set on Android is the same that you have come to expect from XBMC, no different from its cousin on the desktop.

¤ Running your favorite media-center software on small, cheap, embedded hardware is about to become a hassle-free reality.

¤ And as Android-based set-top-boxes are becoming more and more ubiquitous, it couldn’t be a better time.

¤ In fact, primary development was done on a Pivos XIOS DS set-top-box. And that is no coincidence, you will notice that Pivos is now listed as an official sponsor (more on that later).

¤ It is in under development of XBMC.... With more features

I will get the updates here when the XBMC worked on it as i Open source i have presented here

Enjoy

¤ XBMC is stable and works great there, as well as on various tablets and phones. Though with Android, as many of you probably know, that is only the beginning of the story.

Enjoy the stereotypical dev-shot low-quality demo video On HTC one X

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Gadgetz:
I just tried it on my phone and it found the sdcard (external one) just fine. Havent tried movies yet.

via my Galaxy S III
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] haenraets:
For ext sd card go to Add Videos - Browse - Root Filesysystem - mnt - extSdCard and then select the folder you want.

For audio when playing movies: - touch you screen so you can see the controls etc . Press on the speaker symbol (right bottom). Change volume to 0.0dB. I guess that should do the job.

Hope this all works for you!

Sorry but that is not exactly what I meant.

Is there a way to us a DVB-T receiver connected on USB port like if I use Live TV in the desktop app?

Hi, one question.

For some reason, all 1080p mkv files that I could play on my SGS II are NOT working on my SGS III (really disappointed) and I'm wondering if this program will be able to play them, because if it can I will be able to use it with my Led TV using the MHL adapter.

[Android] ZaySk:
I've got a question, hoping somebody here can give me a hand. I'm currently making a CM9 ROM for my Inc S, it's been compiled with dsixda's kitchen on Windows 7 64bit. I've gotten it to boot successfully and everything seems to be in working order. One problem though, whenever I go into the settings menu and try to access the storage settings, it crashes saying "settings has unexpectedly stopped" At first boot up, the MicroSD card also fails to mount. Not quite sure what's causing this problem, I'll look into it further myself tonight. Figured XDA might have some solutions for me though, so I asked.

Thanks. :good:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] geniustheanimal:
I have NO clue what happened. Wife and I were driving to see my in laws, had my phone navigating us to a pit stop at a local restaurant before we touched down at the house. Phone randomly rebooted itself, then went black after the initial HTC screen. The charging light no longer came on, and no matter what I do, I can't get it to restart or respond at all. It's a highly advanced technological marvel of a paperweight, I do say so myself.

It was charging, about 65% full, navigating, no other active programs or processes that I had started recently. Phone was rooted, S-OFF, running MeanROM. Was noticing some issues with lag over the last couple of days, but it would always settle down after I killed a couple apps. No overheating (except if I was navigating with it attached to dashboard, but that's because it's been mid to high 90s for a month or more), no dropped calls. No shock, drop, or water damage. Just an unexpected, and untimely, death.

I bought it from BestBuy on launch day, but didn't get the Black Tie Protection, so I suppose I've got to take it to Sprint and pay my freaking deductible :crying:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LaloHigh:
Same thing happened to me on mean rom. Nothing would happen even if I pressed the power for a while. I knew my battery was charged. So I connected the charger and no red led. I left the charger connected for about five minutes and it recucitated by itself. Try that and I hope you get lucky like me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oOflyeyesOo:
If the above doesn't work. Leave it off the charger for a day or so, then try to reconnect it. I have had this happen with my og evo quite a few times. Sometimes it just doesn't want to recognize at all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] iandmacdonald:
$9.99 on the first day of buying the phone at BB, and I'm on my third EVO! God bless the Black Tie protection program, lol.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bso44:
Which version of MeanRom were you guys running?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mcvoss:
What type of car charge and how many milliamps was it. Was it plugged in when it died. The reason i ask is i keep reading about these problems, it even happened to me.

Sorry to hear hope it comes alive, mine never did
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Deveal2014:
Mines died with 77 percent & never came back on. I was running Mean Rom( not saying the rom was the problem) I got it from bestbuy and didn't get blacktie protection . I took it to Sprint & they unscrewed and took it apart . The tech couldnt fix it ,and the manager told me to go back to bestbuy to swap it out . When he walked to the back the tech handed me a new phone and said real loud "sorry we couldn't help you " winked at me and I mouthed thank you and left .
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bso44:
Is this a prevalent problem on MeanRom or has this happened to people on other ROMs or stock? Just asking since the 3 members who had this happen to them were all on that particular ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dakidd516:
This is not ROM specific...my phone did this day one I got it on preorder...it scared me...I just left it alone and plugged the charger up hours later then worked...it could be a quirk with these dam internal batteries

I was stock and not rooted

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dakidd516:
Nope just basically calibrating the battery...charged it up and was letting it die
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] willy900wonka:
Seems there are quite a few of these. Just an observation, I would use the opportunity to test whether the phone is "really" dead by seeing whether the unbrick tool at Lazy Panda sees the phone. Not to unbrick it but rather whether it can detect it.

http://unlimited.io/lazypanda-s-off-public-beta/evo-4g-lte-unbricker/ has a method of detecting bricked phones:" Run the following command in the terminal: chmod 755 brickdetect.sh PandaFinder"

Maybe one of their team would be kind enough to work with you on this : http://unlimited.io/jbsupport/

If it is truly a hardware issue, the phone won't be found. Who knows ? Perhaps you'll find a way around this issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] globatron:
No that will not help. However there are two possible situations that could be fixable that can exist on these phones.

1. The phone goes into download mode due to some random issue, despite there being nothing wrong with the phone. Holding power for 30 seconds should resolve this or alternatively this could be used http://unlimited.io/one-v-qhsusb_dload-fix/ .

2. Extreme sleep. We have encountered this state a few times on similar devices. The remedy for this is to plug the phone into the wall charger walk away and leave it for up to 8 hours, without attempting to power it on. There will be no charge light or any other sign of life from the phone during the time it is on the charger. It may power itself back on, if not, after 8 hours, attept to power it on.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Deveal2014:
Nope bs this really happened
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shadowhawk2020:
Had this happen to my phone, pre root. Try this: Hold the volume down button and the power button.

Maybe volume up, but one of the two, and it got my phone working.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] russ2048:
So this just happened to mine last night. I am also on Mean ROM, S-OFF, Updated radio and Firmware. Left the phone sitting on the coffee table and came back to use it. Pressed power button to turn the screen on and nothing happened.

I did the following.

Held power button for extended period of time...... Nothing

Plugged into AC charger....Nothing

Tried Volume down + Power...........Nothing

Volume UP+ Power.... Phone started up as normal and seems to be just fine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mcvoss:
Mine died a few weeks back, i tried everything, i thought, but i can't remember if i tried vol up and power, good information.

Thanks, i also hot the thx button

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mcvoss:
No you didn't. You said vol down maybe Vol up, he was clearer.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] geniustheanimal:
So, in the end, I couldn't get anything to detect the phone, or make it work in any capacity whatsoever. I have TEP so took it to Sprint. Techs messed around with it for about 2 hours, couldn't figure out what the problem was, and just handed me a new phone.

I'm stuck with the new HBOOT, unfortunately, but was able to unlock and restore my stuff from Titanium, and was right back in the swing of things by the evening. Odd that it happened in the first place, however.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jdmsohc22:
I'm on MeanROM 2.7 and my phone did this yesterday, I was listening to Pandora and all a sudden it stopped so I assumed it was connection loss or something and I pressed the power button and nothing happened, pressed it again, and again, and again, nothing... So I went online and someone mentioned to soft reset press and hold power for 10 seconds, and I did that and it magically rebooted... Try that out too I guess...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Warrior 3000:
i have had this happen to me last month. i took it to the sprint store and they gave me a new phone and told me that they have had a handful of people with this issue come in already.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jimmyg41:
I joined this club today. Phone turned off around 6pm. Tried all the combos of button mashing to get phone to reset but nothing. Took phone to Sprint today...they couldn't fix it. They said they would have to order me another phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] warerfoot:
This just happened to me too. Just got my phone yesterday and flashed MeanROM on it. I was playing with my phone at low battery then it powers off while I'm using it. When it's off I plug my charger in and the orange light was blinking. I tried holding the power button, Vol Up + power, Vol Down + power, and the most I got was blinking of the capacitive lights, or the orange blinking going away completely and back on again when I mashed a different button combination. I just held the power button alone for a few seconds and it turned back on.

Weird, hope this doesn't happen every time I power off my phone now :( It's too early to be running into these issues
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chriswbush:
The evo has a built in shutdown for extreme heat this happened to me for plugging into a without a power surge and when it died I noticed the charger was half way out and just charged badly let it cool down for a few hours mine took 2 or until the battery itself finally dies then plug it in no light will show up for some time then it will start charging and power on also try holding the power button for 10 seconds if that doesn't work hold power button + down volume key and it should boot into the bootloader once there your safe because you can mount it to your PC from twrp and your golden , add a different or really downloaded rom and move it your set I personally format both SD card and internal storage idle why I just want a fresh install haha but yeah dude most of the problems with not turning on is the self built in shutdown, you know like if your laptop overheats and it shuts down to prevent further damage that's what it is and use power surges people things actually do fry and I recommend it especially one a piece of hardware that cost a few hundred dollars power surge 10 bucks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wvchapp:
It happened to me Friday. Stock 1.22.651.3, unrooted. Battery was at about 20% and plugged into car charger. While running Maps, I glanced down to see the map, and it was at the Sprint startup screen. After it booted and I got it back into Maps it shut down completely. It's completely dead. No combination of button mashing did anything. Put in on the HTC wall charger overnight, no charge LED, no response.

I took it to the Sprint repair center, and they're looking at it today.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wvchapp:
Sprint couldn't fix it, so they ordered a replacement which arrived yesterday. It looks new, rather than refurbished, though it wasn't in the New In Box packaging. Wish me luck with this one!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jrmatics:
same here. was running stock rooted s-off for weeks, no custom rom. was on a phone call then i went to use the internet browser then all of a sudden i get an all white screen then constant reboots. the phone tried to reboot it self to a fuzzy htc boot screen then it instantly shut back down. nothing i tried worked, couldnt get into recovery or anything even when i tried to connect to my computer to try adb it would not connect. the battery finally died and would not charge or even get to the boot screen anymore. i brought it into sprint and they tried to charge it but it wouldnt. went back on my lunch break and they gave me a new phone... dont know what happened but hope it doesnt happen again
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Almost same here.

This has happened like 3 times since running MeanROM 2.7 or higher (One with Google Now)

I also recently added the SanDisk 64GB Class 10 Card.

It has always been in my pocket when it froze.

Holding power for 10+ seconds, then Power Again has recovered it each time.

One time however it corrupted my internal SD Card.

It might be overheating in my pocket (but the phone was not feeling hot)

For now I took the SD Card out and rolled back to MeanROM 2.1,Full Wipe and Formated Internal SD card. I ran 2.1 for a while with no issues.

Google Now makes the ROM useless anyway since you can no longer Voice Dial over bluetooth with it.

For anyone that returned it to Sprint did you just run the RUU on it first?

I have it S-Off.

My sister just bought 2 white versions of these, one in store and one on line and they both came with 1.13.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] geniustheanimal:
Hey all,

So, I ended up going in to Sprint and they just replaced my phone, as they couldn't figure out what it was either.

The only insight I gained was after getting my new phone, before unlocking or flashing anything custom, I had my phone plugged into a cheap-o car charger from Walmart (I'm frequently driving people around, and needed another charger to use when someone was using the other). Well, whilst driving and charging, the phone randomly rebooted again and froze on black for a few minutes. Thankfully, it booted back up after a little bit of time, and has been running fine ever since. I don't know if the charger was to blame or not, although I've heard stories of cheap chargers frying phones, but I threw that bastard in the trash can immediately thereafter
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] htc-vene12:

Is there any proof of that?, I'm guessing they will drain battery as much a bright static one.

The only time livewallpapers would cause more drain is when its actually displayed.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metzalx:
I haven't done an actual test per se, but on my tablet the battery life seems to have improved significantly after I switched from a live wallpaper to a static one...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
Well Dude...

Think practically.

A live wallpaper has additional controls. For EX.-> If you have a live wallpaper with water ripple pattern, it will display water ripple when you touch it. Ofcourse it will also produce sounds of water rippling.

So over here, four elements are draining your batter.

1) The data stored in wallpaper active at all times.

2) The sound of water ripple.

3) The animation shown.

4) Colours to be shown in Background image.

And here is what a simple wallpaper has->

1) A simple coloured Image.

So comparing both, it is clear that live wallpapers do use battery, although its very little and negligible.

Hope this helps:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thething869:
Yea haha pretty much what jaskaran said, it's cause the live wallpapers require more cpu usage than a static one cause theyre always doing something I.e. animations etc
