Try calibrating battery .. until it refuses to even blink. Then charge it. Also leaving overnight kills your phone's and its battery life as well. Generally it takes 3-4 hr to full charge using a wall charger and a hour or more from Usb via PC or lappy

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

Also.. avoid charging phones time to time. Charge only when you need the battery life ..
[Motorola Photon 4G] Team DevDigitel:
Do you have a customer recovery on your phone ?? If so you need to charge your battery with the phone off for atleast 4 hours. Boot directly into your recovery and clear Battery stats.. Its under advanced in CWM Recovery Version 2.0.2.7 ( Again the newest CWM does NOT flash the rom correctly so make sure to use the specific recovery per developer ( Jokersax v3 for CM Roms) or download the CWM recovery and down grade one version.

So my son has dropped our Nook tab a few times so it's quite possible that is the cause, but there is an area in the top left corner that will not respond to any touches. The picture is perfectly fine, but I'm wondering if anyone has opened up their NT and if this is fixable.

Currently, we have Wild and Doc doing most (all?) the modem pulls. People get busy with real life, and sometimes cannot be around to pull new modems as they are released.

I am pulling them as well (have I5 now before posted on board), and can upload them somewhere for people, but was not sure about public reception since I only have 20 posts. If you want to see some of my other work, you can Google me. You can also wait until Doc uploads his version then verify that the MD5 on his modem.bin matches mine (updater-script will not match).

I've made a script to pull modems, and can share that as well, if people want. Be advised that my prepackaged modems do not create a modem.backup file. Instead, I've created a directly flashable UVLEM zip file in it's place, as I feel this is a better solution.

The only way to restore it is to powercycle the handset. This is so stupid im thinking of factory reset. I also checked for updates and there are none available. Please help!!

If you have your text message limit set to 200 messages and you receive number 201 from someone the notification sound will get cut off because it has to delete a message and it doesn't have the brain to do 2 things at once.

I made a backup of my HTC EVO LTE Stock ROM in TWRP, I flashed CMX, now I want to go back to Stock, so I went to TWRP>Install, I can see my backup folder under /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/name of backup.. but I when I select the folder it does not give me the option to Install it. It just opens as an empty folder. I did notice the folder is not in a .zip format. Is this the reason why? Did I miss something during the back up process? And if so, how can I fix it? Is it as easy as just converting the regular folder into a .zip folder then try to install it this way?.. Please tell me not everything is lost, lol.. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Need to Restore But Getting Black Screen

Okay so my situation is similiar to the OP.

I was running CM10 then a custom sense Rom.

I made an original backup, but when I restore it I get a black screen at boot.

Typically when I flash a Rom I have to fastboot flash the boot.img which is no biggie, but there's no boot.img that I can find in the twrp backup.

Might be just as easy to flash a stock Rom, but not sure exactly where to find one. Everything I've found is rooted or custom in some way.

Thanks in advance for any replies.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thicklizard:
Download the rom you are trying to restore, and fast boot that bootimg.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tankerkevo:
The ROM I'm trying to restore is the original state of my phone. Would this be a stock ROM with a versioning date of October 28th(the day I got my phone and made the backup), current stock ROMs, or launch stock ROMs. Basically will any boot.img work from a stock ROM?

I do see the boot sector being written during the restore process. There is a boot.something.win file in the backup folder for the backup. Can this be fastbooted? I'm a bit timid to try that, but thinking it may be worth a shot...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thicklizard:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tankerkevo:
Thanks for the quick reply, QuickWizard is very fitting. I actually got it after I finished going my own route though.

I grew a pair and went with my got and I went ahead and flashed the boot.emmc.win from the twrp backup in flashboot. It successfully got me booted and logged into the phone. That said the stock rom is so crappy...

But, I was having issues on CM10 with MHL, on a "stock rom with goodies" I was having radio issues with the latest firmawares, so now it's back to my rooted stock backup and I'm doing the HTC System OTA update... Should be interesting what happens next...

Again thank you all with the quick replies!
[HTC Rezound] Dagoof:
Hi everyone,

I was having issues running Wifi Tether on my rooted ICS Rezound and using the encryption option. It worked great without encryption but, being a bit paranoid, I felt that I needed to use it.

What seemed to do the trick for me was to freeze the Mobile Hotspot App with App Quarantine. I then rebooted the phone and tried to use the encryption option and it has been working since!

My settings for Wifi Tether:

Profile = Rezound (LTE/CDMA/GSM)

Setup Method = NetD (master)

Enable Wifi Encryption = CHECKED

Passphrase and SSID were changed to my liking

Channel = 1

Don't disable Bluetooth = UNCHECKED

Wifi Driver Reload = CHECKED

Enable access control = CHECKED

Keep Alive = UNCHECKED

Idle Shutdown = CHECKED (set for 20 minutes)

Routing Fix = CHECKED

I hope this helps some of you out there!
[Epic 4G General] xplus93:
I just saw a cool rom called Provision in the nexus s section. What was really cool was the notification bar and such. If anybody could put those into the paranoidandroid rom, that would be a complete beast of a rom. I'd give it a try myself but any dev that could do this or give me some help doing this it would be nice. I wan't something worth switching with sense every now and then.

[HTC One X] i2avi:
I'm running CM10 on a HTC One X and I'm wondering if there is any workaround to the android notifications annoyance. When music is playing, the notification will not play over the top of the music, nor dim the volume, but it will mute the music until the notification is over. This means that you miss parts of a song or a podcast if you get a message.

I know certain apps can bypass this. For instance, Whatsapp notifications play over the top of music without interrupting it. Is there any global workaround?
[HTC One X] golo83:
the only way i found is by putting profile to vibrate or silent during music...

I have a couple family members who are on Verizon and want a big phone. I've mentioned the LG Intuition to them and they, of course, asked me "Is it any good?" I told them I wasn't sure of the specs and would check, and I was heavily annoyed by the conflicting information i found.

I got most all the specs figured out, the one thing i don't know is what CPU it has. All VZW says is 1.5 GHz Dual-Core, which narrows it down to about half the ARM chips on the market. Googling it, most everyone says Qualcomm, but no one seems to know (or agree on) WHICH Snapdragon it is - S3 or S4

Anyone know which it is?

Dont remove bloat on LG Intuition!!!

I bricked my LG Intuition and found out after that LG has a added security measure that if you remove pre-installed apps the first time you power the device off and back on it locks the device!!!!! The phone has a feature that you can disable apps you dont want wich will keep those apps from caching and using memory.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultrasawblade:
I've read in multiple places that removing certain Google apps does trigger the phone, on next boot, displaying "LG Security Error" (you can find the image if you poke around the filesystem). I did the same after rooting - taking out most of the apps I didn't want but I didn't touch any Google apps for fear it would break something,

I've also read in one place that another app or service actually verifies and if that's disabled, then the security check doesn't run. I have not been able to confirm yet.
