[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] whisperingforce:
Just to provide an update. I have now resolved the problem

After trying to factory reset my tab then became stuck was stuck on the galaxy tab screen. Using the stock rom for 3.2 found here http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1483168 i was able to flash this using Odin and much to my relief it booted up again in 3.2.

Much to my amazement once it was flashed onto my device and booted up i was able to get an OTA update to ICS 4.0.4 which was a bit of a suprise. Not sure how or why this happened but i am very pleased with the result. ICS is a huge improvement from honeycombe and is like having a new tablet. It is so much smoother and more responsive.

I was using CWM 5.2.0.4

Hello, I'm trying to find somewhere that can replace my Nexus's screen at a reasonable price.

The screen is not broken, just has a few scratches...I hate scratches.

So if someone could kindly point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mendezj666:
Hate to tell you but your best options are to get a screen protector that does a decent job of covering up the scratches, or sell it as is and get another one with no scratches. The screen assembly for these phones is 150-200 and dont know of anyone that just replaces the digitizer at a reasonable price. (since it is almost impossible to separate the lcd from the digitizer) You should be able to get a fair amount for your Nexus even with a few scratches so if I were you , I would sell it and get another one but your call. Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mangusZen:
what about this?

http://www.ebay.it/itm/Black-Front-...Accessories&hash=item2a23154cf4#ht_1304wt_958

I really don't know the quality or if it's original or not, but it's cheap and may worth a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
Thank you for the reply, I thought that'd be the case but just needed a second opinion.

I've seen Nexus on craigslist for $150 with no scratches.

I'll try to sell my old one on ebay for $120 or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
Ya, but the digitizer is really hard to remove from the screen itself. I checked with all the local repair shops, they all say the same thing.

...But thanks for checking
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
Are you sure you are looking at the Galaxy Nexus and not the Nexus S's or the Nexus' ones? I know this phone has depreciated quite a bit recently but 120 is awfully cheap for this phone. On Craigslist in Toronto here they are going for 350-400.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
Ya, they're Verizon Galaxy Nexus, you can find many phones pretty cheap here in Texas Craigslist if they're more than a year old.

ebay is another story though.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshag:
Anyone know if the Note 2 will support video out? HDMI or other..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersh:
720p if you want to see the phone ui, 1080p in full screen videos.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZtechfreak:
Via MHL at the resolutions kersh mentions (probably via the Allshare Cast Dongle too).

Probably using the 11-pin adapter used in the S3 I would think, rather than the standard 5-pin MHL adapter.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anonymous572:
This one works on my Note. Should work with Note 2 too.

If you need analog - you can use this adapter + this RCA exit-adapter if you have old TV.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshag:
Sounds good, thinking about picking one of these up when they hit the stores.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZtechfreak:
I'm actually expecting that one will NOT work. Samsung went to an 11- rather than 5-pin arrangement for MHL in the S3, meaning that older adapters did not work with the S3, I would expect that they will use the same connection with the Note 2. I would hold off buying an MHL adapter for the Note 2 until it is confirmed one way or the other.

Ok, so Ive unlocked my bootloader, it's still in s-on but, not sure if that's the problem, I have downloaded the root.zip and PG76IMG.zip, and attempted to root that way, when I boot into the hboot, it says model ID incorrect, so now I'm left think what the hell, I have also tried breakdroid's three methods, all of them tell me I have rooted it, I check,and it's not rooted. I really have no idea what to do anymore, also, I'm on a mac with no access to a windows computer. Please help!!!

I tried for like 30 minutes to get my phone to work with a mac. Ended up using Airdroid and just transferring files over wifi.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
I personally use wifi file transfer.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] salils:
Thanks, Airdroid looks great. But for transferring large files, wi-fi is pretty painful. Just for the sake of brutal comparison, I found I was getting less than 1/10 the transfer speed (on video files 300-500mb) over wi-fi. Guess I'll have to get windows running on my mac again...unless there's a way to actually do file transfer over usb on my Mac..? (without cracking open my phone and removing the msd card)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SimeonAS89:
I've run into the same issue myself. The phone is recognized, but nothing ever happens as far as the drives popping up.

Best workaround is to just use parallels if you have access to it...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Another option is to pull the SD card and plug that into your Mac. Luckily I have a PC as well so I don't have to come up with a workaround.

Is there a way to disable this? It kinda doesn't help when using anti-theft applications when remote enabling GPS and other location services.

I doubt the thief will press agree when asked about it.

I run latest stock ICS and rooted.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
Leave gps turned on. It doesn't waste battery if it's not in use
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] revan17:
I know that. I'm thinking about this in case of theft, if the thief disables the GPS. I can't remotely enable it without his "consent".
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
Use 'lookout' app i think it can activate gps regardless, u have to allow it as a device administrator so it won't easily uninstall either
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LeoRex:
I'm bumping... I'd like to see if this is possible. My issue isn't with the GPS, its with both WiFi and wakelocks.

Google Location Services is throwing a ton of wakelocks, keeping my phone awake (and when I have it set to disable when sleeping overnight) WiFi up and running... I hate wakelocks. I've been playing around with Tasker and Llama to get my phone so that it goes into deep sleep and only wakes up every 15 mins or so to check email for a quick bit.. then go back to sleep.

If I leave Google Location Services on, the NetworkLocationLocator wakelock fires all the time (30 to 50 times an hour at LEAST)... The overall affect is that with GLS on, the battery drains twice as fast as with it off when the phone is asleep. Uncheck GLS and poof! wakelocks go away, but then anything that uses the network location stuff, like Google Now, is SOL.

I can turn it on and off with the Secure Settings pluging... but that stupid consert window always comes up when it's re-enabled. I don't like that. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] loadaverage:
i think the popup is the apk "learning client". i rooted esp. to get rid of it... useless and drained battery. google it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rafik1234:
You're right! Just open root explorer with R/W rights and go to system/app. Then find a file called "learning client.apk" and simply delete it! Full works ;)

with the stock HC FW, i found that the mobile signal reception is very weak, the mark H/H+/3G randomly appears and disappears in the signal bar icon. And loading page in default browse is mostly timed out.

After I updated to CM10 Preview, the issue is still there.

Now, i want to try other baseband version to fix the problem, so please show me some baseband version suitable for my Tab p7300.

Many thanks.

I'm not sure what your trying to imply, but on my Note, when I select one of my contacts.. and the contact info is on my screen.. when I raise my hand to place the phone to my ears.. the phone automatically calls that contact (the one displayed on my Note's screen)....

It's under Settings>Accessibility actually...Direct call...

Is this what your trying to ask for? or something else?

For answering calls through motion, you may try to check this app- called Smart Answer Call (not for free though and I'm not sure it works as intended but you can give it a shot) -- > https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wOSwiY29tLmhhcmRyb2NrLnNtYXJ0YW5zd2VyY2FsbCJd

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
Well, for modding stuff.. there's no feature on that for now as each ROM has it's own feature.. for stock.. you need to request Sammy to have it package on the next firmware :D

anyway.. going back, you can try to post a Request thread under the Themes and Apps section.. and you have to wait and pray for a dev to notice your request and hopefully grant it...

Yeah, your request is kinda nice though but like I've said.. we have different custom ROMS out there for our Note.. and each devs has their own lists of features and priorities that they want to incorporate on their respective ROMS... it would be great if all of them can have this kind of a feature but then again, don't raise your hopes too high... each devs has their own set of priorities to attend to and your request might be on the very bottom end of it.

hello there xda users

i have recently bricked my phone and managed to reflash the firmware, but, i had to add the bootloader file with the split firmware package.

what i want to do is install the latest XXLD3 firmware on top of the current s5830ixxkk5/gingerbread.xxlk1 firmware package but im worried because i am thinking that the bootloader file has to be the same as the firmware if you know what i mean. can i install the xxld3 on the xxkk5 bootloader without bricking my phone again? any help would be appreciated. thanks

As far as flash is concerned ....... i think u can... i am not pretty much sure but i think so.

but if u need a bootloader file go to unbrick tutorial of mine and download the package for unbrick... take the bootloader file from there..... its from xxld
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Shankay:
Use ODIN flash YOUR stock rom csc/pda/modem to wait till it boots, after that go to download mode again and just flash pda of XXLD3 using ODIN again. For flashing you dont need the bootloader :) use ODIN 1.84. I change my WHLA1 to XXLA2 just by flashing the pda of xxla2

And by the way remember what feetsonfire said, this queries need to be on general section not in development :)

[Motorola Droid RAZR] teelium:
Hey guys,

Thought upgrade to ICS, and have some thoughts. I have modded quite a lot on the phone (rooted, kernels, cpu scripts / hacks, etc.) and believe that all these made my phone unstable and sluggish.

What would be the easiest way for me to upgrade to ICS via OTA, and do a full factory reset on the phone? I sit on 651.73.30.XT910.Retail.en.EU 2.3.5.

Is there a universal flash you can use in order to get the phone to default?

I found a few threads that could help me but I am still a noob with Android, and am not sure if they are safe for me.

I am extremely grateful for any response, Thanks in advance :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] teelium:
My build is 6.5.1-73_SPU-11-M1-2, if that would ease your process of helping me.

Could I not just restore the phone to original settings and get ICS over OTA?

I noticed that many threads similar to mine show up here, but hopefully I can get a helping hand here and I will do my best to help Anyone with a similar question.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fracta1:
From what I know, you cannot receive OTA updates to the same OS you are on, no matter the version. I personally would look over all your hacks and tweaks and try to figure out what is making the device unstable... Other than that, all that comes to mind is fastbooting to Gingerbread and trying to get to ICS via OTA that way. I've never done this and know little about it, however. I wouldn't recommend it unless it becomes necessity.

Hopefully that helps somehow... :p

I think you can try by flashing complete (3 files package) of XXLD3 via odin & then flash only the bootloader file of XXKK5 via odin. I have not tried it before and i'm not sure but i think it should work. In worst case you can always revert to XXKK5 via odin, as long as you can access the download/odin mode :good:

[HTC EVO 3D] goliath714:
A little backround info about the youtube app for the Evo 3D: If you download youtube from google play(doesn't matter if you're rooted or not), it will not play HD(High Definition) video; only HQ(High Quality). If you haven't noticed already, HQ isn't really much different than the normal video. The reason it doesn't play HD is that our device's screen is not technically considered an HD screen because of the pixel density(Evo 3D is qHD:960X540 HD is 1280X720). However, HD videos play fantastically on our device, so Google fails for not allowing youtube to upscale to HD. Fortunately, there's a fix for this. For those of you who want youtube videos to play in 720p HD(not sure why you wouldn't...), instead of crappy HQ, I have a working apk attached. Simply download, put on your sd card, and install like you would any other third party apk, and if you have youtube installed already, or if it came embedded in your rom, just say ok or yes when it asks if you want to replace the system app. I've installed it myself and tested it, and there are no weird bugs, glitches, discoloring, missing lines, cut off portions, weird aspect ratio, etc. It works flawlessly, and any video shot in HD looks crystal clear. Came from beneath-a-burning-turtle's Common Sense 1.7 rom, so thank him, not me. :)
