[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbfree:
...mate just flash cm9 on gb and then jellybean... you wont face any issues ever...

So it will be gb > ics > jb....

Done, the only result was that when on cm10/jb it tell me that there was a problem with the imei and I only could make emergency call.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbfree:
You were lucky because you have the old EFS file , in my situation I do not have the old efs file, I have only the IMEI from the label under the battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samtan4326:
No. I also deleted the efs file. But after I flash xxjvu stock ROM to my phone I get the correct imei.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbfree:
Good to know, I already did this step, but I'll try once more

Also you can check with the stock JVU ROM with re-partition option checked.

thanks.

I did re-flash with JVU rom but same result.

Allways fake imei ending with 0000.

I have same problem. Reflashed hundred times to stock ROM (JVU) but still no luck to get my IMEI back.

Help please.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbesiegerx:
Are you sure you checked the re-partition option when you flashed JVU? If not, do you know which original firmware you came from? If so trying flashing that instead.

The only thing that i missed is this one:

4) Replacing keystr file ( If missing) in efs > imei folder

I don't have that one, and i don't know where to get it...

i have the same problem as above :(

i've tried to flash JPU rom, with repartion, EFS clear and full wipe before and after...Cleared EFS many times.. Nothing happend.

ignore the keystr if your device is not m110s (korean SGS). The file only exists on Korean device.

Nope, still nothing.

I've heard, about method, where i can "put" correct imei tu nv_data.bin using hex editor.

sorry, I'm a bit mixed up regarding keystr file .. I just double checked .. my m110s efs don't have keystr file neither in my other SGS backup. Sorry for misleading.

[HTC One X] sopidos:
After I recived the update to Android 4.0.4 I have experienced problems with that the camera "service" (I don't realy know what to call it) beeing unavailable after using a any app that uses camera. It is like some app och phone service are kinda' locking the camera from beeing used by any other application. When I restart the phone I can use one camera app before it locks up and then I'm unable to use it untill after next reboot. Before the update to 4.0.4 I had no problem what so ever.

Phone info:

My phone is a non-moded international version, just ota updated to 4.0.4.

Software number: 2.17.401.2

Any solution?

Is there any command line thing that could make the "lock" disapear? (I'm NOT rooted) Or do any one have another solution?

Please tell me if you need any more info about the issue, I don't really know what to give.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Clear data and cache for it?
[HTC One X] sopidos:
I have cleared cach for the camera app, but since it's not just that one who don't work it didn't make any differens which I can se. Is it possible that it is some kinda' iternal driver problem? Because I get a feeling it's some system problem though no camera thing work.

Any ideas?

Does any one have a solution? Or do I have to factory reset my phone?(I really don't want that)

Hi

I'm a Dreamspark Premium member so I can already upgrade to Windows 8 for free. I installed it earlier this week and I love it. My Asus X53Sv works fine on Windows 8 except for two things:

1. The function keys

They actually work. But it could be better. Windows 8 shows a nice little popup when you press the volume keys on a keyboard. It works when I connect my Logitech USB keyboard but the popup doesn't show up when I use the volume keys (with Fn) on my notebook. In the metro interface I don't see anything and in the desktop interface I see the same popup as in Windows 7. It would be nice if it just worked with the default Windows 8 interface and popup.

2. The touchpad

EDIT: found a working driver, not needed anymore

Any help on newer drivers / configuration utilities for the ATK function keys or the EDTware ElanTech Smart-Pad?

Thanks in advance.
[Windows 8 General] glennexpert:
Check some of my latest posts. Solution provided for elan.
[Windows 8 General] SamuelDebruyn:
Ok, so I first tried the latest ElanTech driver. Still the same problem: the configuration utility crashes.

Then I tried the latest Synaptics driver: it doesn't really detect my touchpad so it doesn't let me configure it. It says there is a touchpad, but it's not a synaptics one.
[Windows 8 General] Sebz4n:
Ok I have an ASUS N53SN and I have gotten the drivers working (charm bar swipe etc...)

But when I press a key on my keyboard I have this 1-2 seconds delay, which is hell'a annoying, and I figured out I need to remove

palm tracking for it to get fixed. But when I open my ELAN settings they look like this: http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/8780/elan.png

How do I fix that?
[Windows 8 General] K12:
To get the volume OSD working in Windows 8, you have to install the Keyboard Filter driver and the ATK package from the ASUS website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sarg92:
My Galaxy Nexus is unrooted, locked bootloader running stock 4.1.1

My battery life seems to have gotten pretty bad recently with the battery running out within 9 hours without the phone being used. The screen on time would be something like 20 minutes and the device awake time would be 8 hours! Surely that is not normal and is draining my battery?

Any idea to what it could be? Could it be Google Now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
Look for BetterBatteryStats to get a handle on whats using up your battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r29:
what above post said.

Google Now should not drain that much of a battery if its not in use.

Having your sync all on will drain battery. Apps Facebook/twitter/g+ all those kill battery. Data Connection kills battery. Google Maps..pretty much any app with data will drain your battery so disable your data connection if you dont need it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
Could also be some app not updated to run properly on JB.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:

Soft brick from not allowing a proper boot. Install a stock ruu via hboot, that should fix it.

Dude look at the first post...clearly says " now the phone won't turn on is this a brick "

To be fair, often times not turning on is the same thing as not booting up correctly to those who maybe aren't as tech savvy. TC just needs to be a little more specific.

Is there a way for automatic caching? I tried to save tiles manually, but the maximum size per tile of (was it 70 mb?) makes that task a tedious one as first I need hundreds of tiles for Germany alone and secondly I have to wait for the tile to fully download before I select the next. I gave up after 5 tiles and had merely the bigger Frankfurt area covered.

When you boot it goes into recovery because of HTC dumlock. That is normal operation.

Bingo u hit the nail on the head. People complain about the lack of removable battery. Ummmmmmm maybe 10% of pple would actually carry a spare.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] slimslim:
Then you should ask them. And couple people isn't everyone.

The main reason is: most users if they don't buy the iPhone they'll go for sammy because of the brand. You don't know much about a smartphone but you at least know they make good tv's, computers, refrigerators, you name it. Where else do you see the HTC logo? Many people didn't hear about it. So, obviously pick the Samsung instead.

hmmm

What is the big deal about which smartphone you use? I would bet that most people on XDA are pretty well clued up about phone tech and so, money permitting, they will make an informed purchase, buying the phone that suits them best.

I own the SGS3 and yeah, I think it is top notch handset, but that doesn't mean I diss other handsets. I like to think I'm more evolved than that (though some of my pals would dispute that :laugh:). If someone comes to me for smartphone buying advice, I will try my best to give an informed opinion based on my experience and their tech knowledge and needs...and quite often I'd send them down the iPhone route, not because I think it is a better phone (though Apple, whether you like it or not, make fantastic hardware, just a shame about the company ethos), but because it is probably the best phone for them.

Most on this particular thread will probably own an HTC...again good top noth handsets, but I personally avoid them due to a very bad customer service experience a couple of years ago (threads can be found elsewhere), but that doesn't stop me recommending them to others (though I do also relate my experiences). And many others on XDA will own a whole variety of other smartphones.

The point is, does it matter which phone you own? Yes, some people will spend a fortune on a top end handset just for bragging rights, but there's nothing worse than a 'phone snob'. Most of us on XDA buy what is best for us and are generally happy and if we're not, we switch.

You pays your (hard earned) cash and makes your (well informed) choice. Enjoy what you have, worry not what other think about it and be proud that you are part of XDA and have the knowledge to tinker with and give advice about your techie toys. Just don't get caught up in a 'mine's better than yours' debate.

Happy tinkering folks!

Lets not kid ourselves. We're really comparing Camrys and Accords. If you look at the automotive industry in 10 year intervals. The GS III is the Accord because Honda will make anything with an engine. The Camry brand has seen a significant change in marketplace and mind share. And the iPhone is the Taurus: it used to be THE car, now its A car.

Yeah the screen is much better on the HOX and the camera slightly better, but that doesn't overcome the HOX's lack of microsd slot, irremovable battery, horrendous multitasking on the older firmware, better multitasking on the new firmware but no root, akward location of the power button, etc. GS3 all day!

I am in that "10%" of people. A spare battery is essential for me, especially for festivals, holidays etc, I have a wall charger and can pop new battery in whenever I want, also the option for larger batteries and custom rear covers if needed. Same goes for Micro SD, you can have a spare if you need it!

while im in the same boat with you (i have a sgs3 and a spare battery kit) the whole extended battery thing is null. You can always get a extended battery case deal for the one x, and its essentially the same thing.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robstunner:
I really don't get how people think the plastic feels cheap. While not as premium feeling as the one x is, I never think cheap when I pick up the phone. Plastic works well for a reason, and its the same plastic that the one x had other than a different finish.

The hilarity continues.

Because there are so many of those cars on the road. You are thinking of status symbol phones like Vertu. The top of the line car that is actually affordable is different than the car most people will never see in person (on the road actually being driven, not at a car show), let alone buy and use for a year. Best cars that money can buy? Very subjective. These are great phones, at great values, that appeal to the masses, and are being bought by the millions. Does that really sound like like a Ferrari or Lamborghini?

All we got in the S II forum was "search first n00b!" threads (not that there isn't a ton of those here too). But there was never this many comedians over there. I think it'll be fun here until I upgrade to a GS III.

Either way, I do agree they are both high end phones, and it is really a matter of preference. I have mine, and it differs from others, but neither of us have to be wrong for the other to be right.
