(11th February 2012, before O4X even exists...)

About methods being easy or not, needs to disable this or that, depends on the skills, computer settings and some other situations.

Thats why things don't work the same way to everybody and once in a while someone appears with some problem, even following the tutorials.

Thats why "we" are here, to help and try to find out what is going wrong and try to find alternatives that work, instead of "shoot in the dark"

giving "funny" opinions and criticizing.

I tried all flash methods, all available programs, even tried to brick the phone with them to find solutions for possible mistakes... and its not because of that that I say this or that method is worse than others.

Some tutorials have mistakes (or not...) but, that depends of a lot of things. Inexperience, rush to publish something to help others, drivers that change, differences between versions that didn't exist when the tutorial was made, computer OS, etc...

XDADevelopers have being a reference to all mobile community, but for that, a lot of people need to do a lot of mistakes, and one of the reasons is because people just don't cross their arms waiting that something happends...

We share ideas, experiences, mistakes and help.

Sorry if I hurt your feelings, I didn't meant to...

Best regards

[General Questions and Answers] smokeydriver:
So I'm a toro GNex guy. I am a crackflasher. I am not a big fan of dirty installs. I do use Titanium backup to restore some of my apps. Anyone have directions on how to restore Google Now data or which application it's stored in? Any info is helpful. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] AlexWekell:
If I recall correctly, Google Now data is stored in the cloud. If not, it would probably be stored in Google Search.
[General Questions and Answers] smokeydriver:
So would that mean that when installing new Rom's and signing the phone back up with the same gmail account, the Google Now information would basically reinstall itself? I know I might need to redo some of the setting, which is no big deal, I just wanted to it to keep 'learning' and not lose previous data...if that makes sense.
[General Questions and Answers] AlexWekell:
It makes perfect sense I was wondering the same thing actually when I was flashing ROMs. Google now data is stored in the cloud, I know this because when I go to google maps there's a little check mark that shows me where my work is and where my home is that it learned. This is Google Maps on the computer that I'm talking about so it must not be device specific.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolpoppa:
...why the wifi problem is sporadically happening in the JB ROMS?

I have tried most of the leaked and modded ROMS from early CM10 to Faryaabs Supernexus builds to the latest leaked firmware on 29th Aug.

However, whichever leak it was that first exhibited a wifi problem for the (unlucky) select few seems to have knackered my chances of connecting to wifi properly on all subsequent JB ROMS - even if wifi worked before. eg. Supernexus build 2 was all good on the wifi front, I only had probs with a few bugs and the camera lag. I flashed it again today though to find that it doesn't want to let me connect to my router. :confused:

This was the same with Omega v16, v16.1 and v17.

It seems to be reported that it is connected to router security settings and I know there is a 'fix' out there for it but the fix that I tried only made the wifi slightly better and was peppered with 'unable to establish secure connection' warnings when out and about.

Can anyone add to this or highlight an alternative solution? I have spent the last 30 or so evenings religiously reading the forums and if anything I'm a bit confused and bewildered :)

I'm on Omega v13 atm and cannot fault it (but I want Google Now) and I attach a snap of my current set up in case it has a bearing on where I'm going wrong.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lolpoppa:
No? :)

Well if it helps anyone I eventually found a work around.

After numerous different combinations of ROM, kernel and modem is finally got wifi working on a JB ROM :D

I was using Omega v13 and then I flashed the latest Siyah kernel ( http://db.tt/PgmwhO96).

After this I have been able to flash JB based ROMS over the top with no issues with wifi whatsoever :)

I've also heard that letting your battery drain all the way down and then recharging to 100% without interruption helps give a more accurate picture. Not sure how effective it is, but I usually end up doing it anyway to see how long it will last on a full charge.

But since ICS, you shouldn't need any additional tools or apps for BT tethering.

For example, all I have to do is pair my Rezound and tf101 together, the tf101 automatically recognizes my Rezound as a device capable of providing internet, so you can just tell it to use the Rezound as an internet connection. Done. Nothing else to it.

[Nook Touch General] Ramides:
I've got a Nook ST with Glowlight i've rooted about a month ago. Everything's was fine the first few weeks. I've returned from a weeklong trip and suddenly my Nook won't stay connected to Wifi. The connection will stay up, but only for the first minute or so from bootup. Turning the Nook off and on seems to fix the problem, but only momentarily. The message I receive, along with a greyed out wifi box, is "Unable to stop Wi-Fi."

Google shows a few Color/Tablet users reporting a similar problem and its cause being a faulty wifi switch.

I was curious if anyone's had this problem or can recommend a way to a solution for me. I'm unable to factory reset and reroot it at the moment, but this weekend I should have the time to try it.

I got the Dinc2 and rooted it with revolutionary. Recently I tried to unroot the phone to get the google play update and any other updates and see how well it worked. It is awful, I hate it. So, I went to reroot it now that it is on 6. firmware and Revolutionary told me that my device is already S-OFF !! Does this mean that all I have to do is flash CWM again and I am good to go or are there other steps I need to take?

I "unrooted" by flashing the phone with the most recent stock firmware found here on XDA for the Dinc 2

Any help would be great!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Flash cwm or whatever recovery you want (through fastboot or a pg32img, ROM manager/4ext updater won't work without root) then flash an su zip in recovery, I usually use supersu, Google supersu zip and the xda thread will come up with a link.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DerpDroid:
I tried what you recommended and I got trapped in a boot loop after flashing. Now back to stock with no root but S-off

hook up your phone, rerun revolutionary, it'll ask if you want to install CWM again, say yes. then flash a radio to bootlooping, (prototype 7's guide has a radio that works) then flash superSU and any rom you want. you'll be good to go

[General Questions and Answers] Exoplanet25:
I use the Google Music app and download all of the songs in my account for offline play through the app. Unfortunately, Google has decided to store the MP3s in data/data/com.google.music or whatever which means that all 8 gigs of my music are considered part of the Google Music application and this makes nandroid backups take up a huge amount of space.

Is there anything I can do about this? It doesn't seem like it, but I assume it is an issue for anyone who wants to use Google Music and nandroid backups.

If it is really not possible, what I would like to do is make a nandroid backup, and move (not copy) it from my phone to my computer to save space. Is this going to be a problem if something goes wrong with my phone and I want to restore a backup? Will I be able to transfer the backup from my computer, back to my phone if the phone is unable to boot into an actual ROM (Does CWM have usb access? i assume not). If not, I assume I would at least be able to put the backup on an external SD and restore from that. However I don't normally have an SD card in the external slot, so my other question is how to move the backup from my phone to my computer (and which backup format is the best)
[General Questions and Answers] warus1:
Since you have a computer, I would use the Google Music PC app and download your music to your PC. Delete the music from your droid, then copy your music over from the PC to the droid into a folder of your choice. ( i use on my SD card\mobile\mml\wmp). Google music will pick read the music stored there.

I guess you could just copy the music off the google directory into another folder, but the Google Music app renames your songs..

maybe someone has a better idea
[General Questions and Answers] Exoplanet25:
Yeah, I suppose not using the offline music feature and just manually copying my music would work, but I am hoping for a solution that will let me continue to use it.

Like others have said, if the screen is fine then internals should be fine too. The biggest risk of dropping the One X is breaking its' screen. That is why I use a thin TPU case, with a small lip around the bezel which prevents the screen touching any flat surfaces. It should protect the screen from small drops. And I also don’t have to worry much about placing it face down on a hard surface. Unless you are one of those people who absolutely hate having a case, I highly recommend using one.

The case I use looks pretty decent, better than most other TPU cases out there. The texture on it's back closely resembles the feel and look of the polycarbonate back. It also prevents the camera lens touching the table when rested on its' back. Here are couple of photos of it:

I downloaded TWRP 2.2 from Goo Manager. After the phone is rebooted it downloads the update onto the phone, then I go in and manually and have it flash the zip file onto the device.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
Bottom line on top: does anyone know how to disable the x-wap-profile HTTP header in webkit-based browsers on the G2x?

Here's a bit of background: Although most browsers on Android allow you to set the UserAgent string so that the browser identifies itself as a desktop browser instead of a phone, there are lots of web sites that don't use that method for determining whether to serve you the full or mobile version. Instead, these sites check for the presence or absence of the x-wap-profile HTTP header: if your HTTP request has one, the site knows you are on a phone.

I like seeing the full sites nearly always -- e.g., Engadget only includes videos on the full pages, not on the mobile pages -- so I'd like to suppress the x-wap-profile header. (Firefox doesn't send it, so I can get to the full site using Firefox; unfortunately, Flash doesn't work very well inside Firefox, with lots of stuttering, so it's not an ideal solution.)

The hidden menu has a selection for "Browser Utility," and in that there are selections for "Enable/Disable X-wap-profile" and "Edit UAProfile". That sounds ideal, but the enable/disable selection doesn't appear to work. If I tap that, I get a notification that "ua-profile is 0. Reboot to take effect!" However, after I reboot, the header is still there. The edit selection does appear to work -- sort of; if I delete the string entirely, what gets transmitted in the header is a string identifying the phone as a CAPPUCINO instead of a P999 -- not much help.

I saw this post for a different phone, but I don't have enough experience with Android hacking to know if it's applicable to the G2x or not.

Anyone have any ideas? I normally use Boat Browser, if anyone has some tips specifically for that browser. TIA for any help. (BTW, I'm using kwes's rooted stock 2.3.4.)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
I guess no one knows. It's frustrating, though, to have a control in the hidden menu that purports to do exactly what you want but then just doesn't work -- more of LG's quality programming on display, sigh...
