[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsidianwings:
The next thing I have tryed is I formatted the FAT32 partition and put on a back up of the SD card I made a couple of weeks ago, it made no difference.

I would like to format both the FAT32 and EXT2 partitions and repartition and start completely over again, but not sure how to do this, can't see the EXT2 partition in easeus.

ETA : I managed to get rid of the partion, format the whole card to fat32 then partition again, then put my SD card back up from a couple of weeks ago back on, and still the same problem! I am out of ideas, any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohitsk:
what happens when you install a new app? Does it show up in app drawer? Also did you have any backup of the apps using Titanium backup?
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr0yy:
Try some other application.. a2sd, s2e, link2sd.

Also make a swap partition.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsidianwings:
It won't let me install any new apps, I have backups but it won't let me create anymore, it lets me restore some, but not all.

What I did with the sd card last night really screwed things up, I ended up having to go back to a nandroid. File manager is saying the sd card is empty, and I am having trouble using usb storage connected to computer, so I think I have really stuffed things.

I am going to try any ideas including the above on tonight, but if I can't fix I might just unroot, factory reset and sell the phone, go back to a text and call cheapy, i've had a lot of problems with this, although all others I have been able to fix, but most seem to come down to the fact i'm pushing apps to sd because of low internal storage, might be better off waiting to get android until I can afford a better phone.

Anyhow, i'm willing to spend another night trying to fix this, so any ideas appreaciated. Thanks

ETA:

Update, I got USB storage turned on, my computer says sd is corrupted or unreadable. Is this fixable? Thanks

Another update, when I turned off USB storage my phone also told me the card was corrupted and gave me the option to format it,, so I formatted it through the phone this time, windows is now recognising it and I am transfering back an old backup onto it, I will come back and update if it works so noone has to waste their time helping me, if I don't come back it didn't work and I will be back to try to fix the problem tonight. Thanks :)

Update: I am now back to a similar position as I was in at the beginning of the thread. WHen I get home I am going to reinstall the darktremor scripts as the nandroid I went to didn't have that by the looks, then hopefully once I can start utilising the EXT partition again I will be able to restore from ti backup. I'm not holding my breath though as I couldn't do this earlier on.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsidianwings:
I know I said I wouldn't be doing it till tonight but I really wanted to get this fixed so I have been messing around with it all morning. Had all kinds of problems, but have finally got sd card partitioned, not corrupted, and both partitions recognised as they should be. My apps are still not there, however play store is letting me install now, so I am redownloading them. Titanium back up is saying there is no backups of anything, and it can't find any profiles, however as I am redownloading apps all the data that should be there is there, so yay. I will sit down tonight and spend alot of time redownloading everything, then I will make new backup with titanium. I just hope once I have done it all the apps stay there this time LOL. Thanks for the help, I will be back if it doesn't all go as planned.

ETA: Never mind I need help again already. After redownloading just a couple of apps I decided to check that ti backup would do a backup, it won't do even a single backup because of unsufficient storage space, however I have 7.4gb free on sd, 125mb free on internal and 259mb on sd-ext, why isn't there enough room?

If it helps, on my SD card there is a folder called "backups", with a folder called "apps" in it which is full of .apk file from apps i've download, and I also have a "Titanium backup" folder with properties and GZ files in it. I'm definitely not going to do anymore until tonight as I have no idea what to do now that ti backup won't restore or backup.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr0yy:
That backup folder is of astro file manager backup. Titanium backup is always buggy specially after you "patch it".

Best option. Delete all partitions.. format (not quick) your sdcard if possible from pc. Reflash the current rom ( make sms call bookmark and all sort of backup).. do complete wipe. Start from beginning. Fresh phone would do good!! Try some other apps too.. link2sd and s2e are good!!

Edit: Dont move ti backup to sd.. let it be in internal memory!!
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Souron29:
had happened to me once. The SD ext becomes corrupted if my mistake the a2sd script gets deleted. u have to then reflash ur rom and script to get it working again. b4 that wipe ur SD card and partition it again. And use gobackup to backup and restore apps. it's simple and stable.

Use this app2sd. Its better
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsidianwings:
Thanks, as in my last post I did eventually get the sd card working after a few formats and repartitioning, I was having trouble with titanium backup no recognising any backups, but as I was reinstalling things that suddenly fixed itself (no idea why) so I was able to restore my backups.

The a2sd script did get deleted, but not until after I was already having problems and had to go back to a nandroid, it was the nandroid I took before originally partitioning the card so the script wasn't there, which probably didn't help things!

My ti backup is on SD, so I will move it back to the phone thanks.

Alls well that ends well, but got stressful there for a while! Had a few issues before, but none that took as long to solve as this one. I am on the lookout for a bargain on a phone that has bigger internal memory, but glad to get this working again in the meantime. Thanks everyone.

ETA: Also I did solve the problem with titanium backup saying there was no room to backup, so everything is working perfectly now. Unfortunately I can't for the life of me remember how I did it, but if I do I will come back here and post it in case anyone else has the same problem in the future.

I'm happy that u solved ur prob. cheers :)
[HTC One X] pee_cee:
On my HTC One X (Orange Android 4.0.3, HTC Sence 4.0 Software 1.29.061.11) I have a common problem where I don't get a text message until I press the "Power" button at the top of the phone. As soon as I do, the phone beeps and vibrates, and displays the message on screen. The text message will have a time stamp of many minutes before (maybe 15/30 minutes). If I don't keep checking my phone, I don't receive messages!

Its like the phone is in a deep sleep and isn't receiving messages.

Has anyone else had this problem?
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
It may have something to do with HTC SmartSync.

Yes I know it is only supposed to between the hours of 12(Midnight) and 7AM, but it may not be de-activating for you.

Also is it constantly, or intermittent?
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
i noticed this before, but havent since the 2.17 update - maybe this is what fixes it..
[HTC One X] kaz89:
Are you using wifi and set it to turn off while your screen is off? That might be problem.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
Wifi isn't responsible for the text messages assuming it's sms
[HTC One X] pee_cee:
Yes its SMS message, not on Wifi.

I don't recall ever setting up SmartSync, can you advise what to check/disable?
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
No, SmartSync is enabled by default, HTC though they were being clever but it has cause no end of issue.

There was an app that you could use to disable it, but it has been removed from the Play Store

Im sorry I cannot help you further but I can almost guarantee this will be your cause.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
but isn't smart sync for wifi/data?

if so it wouldn't, or at least shouldn't affect the sms
[HTC One X] asp2010:
SmartSync only disables data connections (WiFi and mobile data) from 0.00 to 7.00, so I highly doubt it has anything to do with your problem. I have noticed I sometimes get the sms notification when I turn on the screen, but never more than 2 minutes after the SMS has actually arrived. On some CM-based ROM's there is an option for the SMS app to show the time the text was sent, as opposed to the time your device received it, and there are delays caused by the network sometimes, so there may be nothing wrong with your phone.

I suggest you install Ghostly SMS. It will essentially double your SMS notification (unless you purchase the donate version, which will remove it once your SMS app displays its own), but it's always fast and reliable - you will see it gets the SMS a fraction of a second before the system's notification appears. I've been using it since there was a problem with messages not being received on a CM7 Nightly for my old Desire and it has never failed.
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
I noticed last night, around 7/8PM (UK TIME!) that when I switched my screen on, my WiFi and Signal reconnected.

I am having the same issue as you, my Network and Connections turn themselves off with the screen haha !

ANYONE FOUND A SOLUTION!?
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
as in the signal bars also are showing no bars with a cross?
[HTC One X] clank182:
Firefox

This used to happen to me at random very annoying it turned out that it was firefox opened in the background that caused it so i just use chrome now. Dont know if this is the same problem.
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Yeah no signal bars, with the red cross over.

And Wifi has no bars also, and is grey'd out as it looks when you are on very low signal?

It either only stays like that for long enough for me to notice it, or it never re-connects and I have to restart my phone.

Any one know a cause/solution?
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
that's definitely not smart sync doing that - not for the phone signal anyway

have you got the phone set to wcdma only ?

if you haven't tried already, then try take the sim card out, clean it, blow into the sim slot in case of dust etc and then put back in and try again

what rom are you using? and what mods if any?

Edit: just seen your sig, if you're on stock then its easier to diagnose at least. try and boot the phone in safe mode for a few hours, check if it continues to do it or not
[HTC One X] asp2010:
The mobile signal just disappearing at random happened to me when I traveled to Italy, but it must have been something with the netwrok, since it only happened there. However, I had no problem at all with WiFi.

The fact that both of your connections have bad signal makes me think of a either hardware issue or a bad radio. I've never flashed a radio on my HOX, but maybe a RUU could help. Or you might have to take your phone to the service...
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
I think its when I travel a big distance in a certain amount of time, I read that some where else. Say if you got in a car, drove around town for a bit (Which is what I did when I noticed) then the signal goes wierd, continue doing it and its as though it gives up trying to chace you round and just thinks, theyll sort me out when im needed (yes im talking as though im bar of signal haha)

The quote below also stacks up, as he was traveling in italy?

Can you try and help me find n RUU, but I don't think i'll use it as theres too much data on my phone to lose

HTC have agreed to a repair already about the WiFi, but I don't want them anywhere near my phone, once you've purchased they dont care. I USED TO LOVE HTC ! Now they have made me think they dont care about the customers.

Perhaps I should ask about the radio issue also?!
[HTC One X] asp2010:
I see now your signature says you're still on stock ROM. If that's the case, you might not need an RUU, a simple Factory Reset might do the same job. RUU's are different for different carriers, so I can't find one for you, but you will find them all here. If your phone is not branded (i.e. without simlock or any custom software by your carrier), look for one that has 401 in the name, such as this one RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe

What data do you have to back-up? You can transfer all your files to your PC or store them on a cloud service (Dropbox, Drive etc) and you can backup your apps & data with adb as shown here.

If it is a radio issue, however, you may well have to take it for repairs. I don't know where you live, but I've always heard nothing but the best about HTC's repairs, they even accepted (free of charge) phones that had beed dropped on concrete or in a tank full of water, which is one of the main reasons I stay away from Samsung (along with TouchWiz, low-quality materials and more, but I'm getting too off-topic).

Good luck and tell us how it went! :good:
[HTC One X] pee_cee:
Thanks for the replies, I'm just going to hope that the ICS/Jellybean updates over the next few months help.

BTW, I dont use the Firefox browser. Thanks

What is a G11? Are you sure you are posting this in the correct forum?

For a HTC Incredible S, you need to get a stock RUU file and use that to flash back to a basic stock ROM and see if GPS will work.

Have you tried vision_wipe_efs? You can download the file from this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1044992

Just extract the executable from the zip, put it in your /tmp/, "chmod 777" this file and execute it. Basically it backup the mmcblk0p13 and mmcblk0p14 partitions and wipe them. Then reboot your phone to see if GPS works again.

is there any software can let use choose serial port like COM1, and set brade rate like 4800 to get GPS orignal data,

i' doubt maybe wrong eMMC jtag file make wrong GPIO config, sure acturelly GPS not power on when tape GPS on in the phone settings.

I was wondering what app do you use when you're taking screenshots? We all know that we (at CM9/10) have a built in screenshot in the ROM. It was good clear and splendid but when I upload it in Facebook, the image seems to be lack of color. I've seen many screenshots taken here in the Captivate forum and it was crystal clear. And the color is very vibrant. I wonder if you people use a good third party app. :)

Hi,

I'm new in the forum and I tried to see if this question was already discussed.

I had a hard time to find the HTC One S Black with the S4 CPU, finally found it in the US and I'm waiting for its delivery.

Download a root explorer from the store, use it to navigate to the system folder and there you will see a file called build.prop.

Open build.prop to edit it and add that line at the end.

I use "root explorer" and when I find build.prop I long press on it and it gives me options, I select open in text editor and that allows me to add the line.

The method may be different in other file explorers.

Reboot after adding the line and enjoy your onscreen buttons.
