Hi,

I am in Belgium, my phone is unbranded, I bought it in around may, and everything was working fine.

I do have 1.29 that I upgraded OTA, the problem is the device loves to restart itself.

I thought it might be just the sim card not sitting well, i take it out, out of the blue, not very often, will restart itself.

sometimes, it even gives a message, something like, if you don't do anything the device will restart itself in 5 seconds or something like, or sometimes, just restarts.

the most annoying problem is , when I turn on the camera app, in 5 seconds, even if you don't move the camera will initiate a freeze and restart.

if you re quick enough to go to gallery, for some reason, and when u get back to camera, it is fine, until you decide to restart the phone.

One reason I bought this phone is its camera, right, and when you need it, it is not there.

To make sure, I went ahead and did a factory reset, guess what, nothing has changed.

I turned of geolocation, gps etc, nothing is helping.wifi is off.

i turned on airplane mode, it doesn't help.

I never rooted it or anything.

It seems to happen more frequently if the battery is around orange level.

I sent error report like 50 times to htc, perhaps, i thought it might take their attention.

Can you guys suggest something about it???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ozdemirhan:
Perhaps, you guys want to keep this, because, I have this problem solved with todays OTA update to 4.0.4 by htc.

hi :)

im been searching , but all i found is how to uninstall protected apk files.

im interested in protecting apk file from uninstalling it by a regular user.

i will explain , i have apk file who disable camera from working , its been ask by a fectory to install it so employ's cant take pic's in work. (the phones are from work) so is there any way to install this apk and put some code or protection over it so wont uninstall it ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m2smoe:
ye sounds legit...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trabel:
Well im asking myself about your answer and how its conected to my question....

How its a quastion for legit or not? If someone give his employs a phone and want to disable the camera?

Like in samsung fectory allowed to enter with cameras and phones with cameras? Right? Is it not legit?

Think before you answer....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephraim:
Well, if the user who wants to uninstall an application from your phone doesn't know about root,titanium backup (there is an option to uninstall system apps there) etc then your best bet is to move it to /system/apps. If the app is there then it cannot be uninstalled through normal methods.

Bdw, you should've put your question in the Q and A section :)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trabel:
o.k

first thank you for your answer.

seconed next time i'll post my Q there :)

third ... when you say move the app to /system/apps.

meaning install the apk from there ? after install move it there ? or ? :)

thx
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tefanym:
to install an apk in /system/app , u should copy the apk using "root explorer" for example to that directory and set permissions to rw- r--r--(read write then read read ) but remember u have only limited space on ur /system directory about 500 mbs only

however u can use a launcher like apex , it has a feature to lock the desktop of launcher to prevent moving widgets or uninstalling apps from app drawer

u can also use an app like app locker and lock the installer app and settings app on ur phone with a secret code preventing anyone who doesnt know the code from accessing settings or unisnstall apps

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.carrotapp.protectpronew&feature=related_apps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trabel:
well thank you very much i will look into it.

if with that app i can lock only this specific install then all good , if i disabled all other install uninstall its not good for me.

also for using root explorer i need to root the phone move the app install then unroot the phone

can i put that installer inside the rom and flash it ? will it auto install the app when flashing this rom ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ShotSkydiver:
Just bought a GSIII yesterday, and my friends have been complaining about my texts coming in late, and me getting their texts late as well. I'm running the latest CM10, but this has been a constant issue with me and Android phones.... ever since I had the EVO 3D on Sprint, to the Xperia Play/Xperia S on AT&T, to the One X, to the GSIII, I've always had an issue with receiving texts hours late on those phones. That's across two different carriers, across five different phones, from stock ROMs to heavily modded ROMs, and from AT&T's 3G APN to its LTE APN. However, using an iPhone for the past few weeks (before switching to the GSIII), I received EVERY text the second it was sent, and all my texts delivered on time. Note this is with the exact same SIM I just put in my GSIII. So... why? Why is this happening? Please, someone tell me... why is it that the only phone that will receive texts on time is the iPhone? That literally makes zero logical sense.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mbc663:

still an issue with me everyonce in a while. anyone have any more info?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blaker13:
The area coverage where you live? Data speeds.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mbc663:
Wouldn't be data speeds cause sms doesn't require data
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RPelham:
The iPhone uses data to send text messages between iPhones. hence why some messages are blue, and other messages are green when you send to other types of phones. This could be one reason you had zero lag with iPhone if the majority of your friends have iPhone as well.

If you are experiencing this across phones and carriers it is a problem with your area. you would need to contact your current carrier for a resolution. Your phone isn't the problem they are.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] s60convert:
Read this thread in AT&T's support forums and see if it is what you are experiencing. I had same issues and AT&T put me through many hoops, new sim, new phone, etc.

Hi all,

Anyone has imported Nexus 7 to The Netherlands?

If yes, how and where did you buy it?

How much the total cost at the end?

Did you also get the $25 USD voucher?

And the most important thing, does your Nexus 7 has those kind of famous defects reported here?

Screen lifted, screen flicker, ...

Thanks for any feedback.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeenlord:
Just got mine yesterday. Got it from Great Britian via Ebuyer.com. But you need an English adress and a English creditcard.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogol:
Thanks for your feedback.

How much was the shipping cost?

And did you pay tax to the Ebuyer.com (you were charged VAT by Ebuyer.com)?

Or did you pay the tax in the Netherlands?

And, how do you manage to ship it to the Netherlands?

:D

Thanks but photolive wallpaper changes lock screen wallpaper automatically?

Is there anyway to prevent lockscreen dimming the live wallpapers?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
photowall changes wallpaper automatically for homescreen and lockscreen. Screen dimming is due to the circular lockscreen, if you want that changed you may have to edit framework or install a lockscreen app like widgetlocker

but widgetlocker can only show LWPs if the home screen has one set. I want it only on my lockscreen

[T-Mobile LG G2x] tvisforme:
Hi, I've been trying to resolve this problem for some time now with no success. I've noticed that our phones (P999s using CM7) change from Pacific Standard time to Mountain Standard time in the spring, instead of Pacific Daylight time. MST is -7, just as with PDT, but it throws off the calendar and other date apps. We're using ClockSync to compensate during daylight savings time but it's not the ideal solution. I'd thought it might be a carrier issue, but the same thing happens when using automatic time set on the roaming partners. Any thoughts?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dbohling:
I was having the same issue on two of the five p999's I've got (cm7 and stock). Talked to T-Mobile about it and they were unable to figure out out either. Have up and went with ntp for time sync.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
How about setting the timezone manually?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tvisforme:
That doesn't address the issue of automatic time updates.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] rtotheichie:
How close are you physically to the mountain time zone? Maybe picking up towers there instead of in Pacific area?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Mine is the same. When I do a new rom and select automatic, it goes to eastern time when I'm in central. Have to manually change it.

No, the nearest Mountain area is over five hundred kilometres away. The issue happens at the spring switchover from standard to daylight time (and back again in the fall).
[HTC One S] renehd2:
Well I start this treat because I read a lot of articles about smarthphones and technology and most of them are about Samsung, iPhone, and HTC, but let's focus on HTC and Samsung....

I think HTC smartphones are better than Samsung ones:

- better design

- better UI

- better support (updates, guarantee, etc)

- better quality

So why Samsung sells more?

I think its all about marketing. For real...

how many ads do you see about HTC phones on tv?

Samsung manage a single and simple name to their phone (galaxy s1, galaxy s2, galaxy s3) and HTC manage a different name to each phone they launch making people get confused and losing interest in HTC

Would be different of they would used for example a star name: desire, then desire 2 (desire hd), then, desire 3 (htc sensation) then desire 4 ( HTC one x)

I bet all that line would have had much more popularity

What do you think guys? Why do you think HTC sells less smartphones than Samsung???

Enviado desde mi HTC One S usando Tapatalk 2
[HTC One S] EDubs11:
I think the Galaxy SIII is a quality device build wise and performance wise. Touchwiz is always crapped on, but there are some great features to it and UX is blazingly fast on the GS3. Hell it is even fast on the GS2.

The Galaxy SII is why Samsung dominates. That phone was so far ahead of every Android phone when it came out that it basically took until the One series came out for a phone to surpass it. That's design wise, performance wise, everything. Once the masses are sold on something and think it is good, they will remain loyal (I.e. Apple products. People are really excited it is going to have LTE, when there have been phones with LTE out for almost 2 years, but I digress).

Samsung also, like you mentioned, are marketing experts. That helps them tremdnously...
[HTC One S] renehd2:
Yeah I also think Samsung get a huge advantage with the S2, the HTC sensation was the nearest competitor and HTC preferred to.focus in quantity instead of quality in 2011, now they are suffering thanks to that big mistake

I still think HTC should use that kind of marketing, using one name to a huge line of smartphones, HTC one x, htc one x2, etc... And I can bet their sells will rise

Because of Marketing, Branding and Promoting.
[HTC One S] spruceyb:
I think it may stem from one the original Galaxy S came out. It was slightly more alluring than the Desire.

With the talk of 'Hummingbird' getting everyone excited.

Then there was the Touchwiz enhancements, now a lot of people here hate it but most people who aren't really into phones enjoy it.

Although in Touchwiz I do like the swipe to call/message function on a contact.

Also, the Galaxy had hardware support for DivX files. It's just easier for the end user if whatever they throw at it just works.

I have to say as a Galaxy Note user I'm slightly envious of my girlfriends HOS, especially the battery life.

She came home from a night shift, 11 Hours on battery 1 Hour of Screen on time and battery down to 77%
[HTC One S] Alie360:
Because samsung is a well known brand in electronics as it produces also laptops, tv etc, htc produces only smartphones so less people have ever heard of it...

And as already mentioned heavy use of marketing, here in italy i've never seen an htc commercial for example :)
[HTC One S] godutch:
I can remember when I had to choose between the desire and sgs that at that time Samsung didn't have a very reliable reputation (poor updates and support), HTC were known for their updates and customer commitment but nowadays it seems Samsung rules here. HTC build quality defects and unforegivenness to repair/swap unlocked defective units under warranty really turned a lot of people to Samsung.
[HTC One S] ihateusernames:
Other than marketing, I think this could be the biggest reason. If the layman is looking for a phone, they would likely consider Samsung if they already have a Sammy TV and or laptop that they are happy with. I once bought a Toshiba laptop because the price was good and the 3 Toshiba TV' s I had were great. I have also owned nothing but HTC phones since the G1 because it was such a great phone.
[HTC One S] renehd2:
Yeah may be that Samsung is much more known than HTC because of all of the electronics Samsung manage, but why is that? I repeat it again

IT'S BECAUSE OF MARKETING..!!

the only marketing I see of HTC is in YouTube and facebook but that is because I'm subscribed to them.!!

I got an HTC hd2 by accident, I wanted to buy a Motorola droid hehe but when I got the phone I really like it, I started to read in the web and found that it could run android, I tried android and I felt in love with the phone, since then I have had 4 HTC phones and all of them have been great, with great community, the only thing I don't like about HTC phones are the low speaker sound versus the Samsung phones that have a great speaker sound,

I thought it would change with the one series but the speaker sound is low to me comparing it to my brother's galaxy s2

[HTC One S] jmitr:
A tech writer once said it best, HTC always designs each phone with at least one fatal flaw.

One V, too little ram, no compass

One S, storage....too little for everyone

One X, storage for NAM versions

Seriously, everytime HTC releases a product line I wish I could frankenstien them together. How about a One S with an lcd2 panel like the X, and storage options? Like the thin 4 inch form factor.....too bad low storage, lower resolution for you.

Or, release them as is with multiple storage options like crapple and Samsung, especially with no SD card.

Personaly I liked bits of each of the one line, but none on their own. I have been a loyal HTC customer since 2004, I skipped the one series, obviously I was not the only one.
[HTC One S] renehd2:
Yeah that movement from HTC was a bad idea, would be better if they would launch different storage versions of each phone

[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
The OneX +, if true looks like to be the real T-Mobile flag ship.
[HTC One S] MrPickleFicker:
IMO its branding and a failure on HTC's part to get their name out there. I live in Canada and have yet to see a single ad for the one series, which is totally unacceptable.
[HTC One S] renehd2:
Yeah here in Mexico the one series is gonna be out in the 3 carriers I think, the one x and the one v is already on sale here in mexico....

I haven't seen any ad so far from HTC :what: but ask me about the gs3, like 3 ads or more per day

I went to accessories store days ago and asked for a screen protector for my HTC one s and for my HTC one x and they thought my phones were Chinese

LOL I didn't know if get angry and laugh hehe, but that's just a HTC fault

[HTC One S] Terminator19:
Storage is not an issue "for everyone".

I have no problems with storage, got over 800 photos (includes loads of 1080P footage and slow motion footage), N64, SEGA ROM emulator files, wallpapers/icons and I still have like 5GB left, all I have to do to free up the remaining 5GB is move the photos/videos over to my PC (which I already have) and delete them on my phone. If I wanted I could also fit my entire music collection on my phone (2GB) as well (not even required this, just use google music) as well as putting a film and a few TV episodes on.

As for apps, got over 75 apps installed (quite a few games like dead trigger) and I still have 1.63GB available.

Just because a certain phone has some issues, weaknesses does not mean that it applies to everyone. Yes it would have been nice to have had more internal storage or an SD slot and the limited storage of the S compared to other phones is a disadvantage. You just have to be more organised rather than just throwing everything on the SD when it isn't required.

And then the screen is perfectly good, granted not as sharp as the GS 3 and X but the colours are great and the pentile isn't as bad as what some review sites make it out to be. The only thing I would want improved regarding the screen is a bigger screen.

Anyway, yup main reason is marketing and brand promotion. HTC have hardly any ads and any that they do is just for the X. Samsung are very much ending up like Apple now (even trying to copy their style of marketing etc.) and the majority of Samsung users are starting to become like the typical apple product owner, won't touch another product of any other company and will buy the product without even knowing any real info. about it and buy it even if it is crap or better alternatives out there.
