[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] - Swift -:
So I installed CWM with the "CWM Installer" APK I had backed up on my SD Card as I had used that APK before , and it worked but now when I install CWM and click "Boot into CWM" it turns off, turns on, blue light comes on for about 2-3 seconds then turns off and continues to boot into Android.

Any hello is appreciated. Looked in the X-Parts thread but found no answers. And before you ask, yes I tried the newer versions.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeff7424:
I tried before, that won't work. You need to press volume button to go into CWM
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] - Swift -:
Thanks, I'll try that now.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] - Swift -:
Just tried, the same thing happens. Blue light flashes, then boots as normal.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HsHTCsen:
Take battery out then back in and try volume down + power
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Whilst the blue light flashes, hold volume button down
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] - Swift -:
Thanks, got it working.

But for some reason, when I did that earlier, it didn't work. Decided to leave it turned off for about 10 minutes.

Yeah, the CWM Installer will support the X8 soon. I think

I've been looking everywhere and can't find how to Sync my Ps3 controller with my Htc evo lte.

I know its real simple right. Well if you have a PC it sure is. I'm trying to sync mine with a Mac. I googled everywhere and no on seems to have come across this topic. Please someone help me. So far I have both apps to check compatible and the actual app. On my Mac I have the libusb file and sixpair. My terminal is setup directing me to the root of the folder that these files are in. Well saying that much I don't know whats next. How do I actually change the MAC address from my Ps3 controller to match the one of my Phones Mac address. Thanks much appreciated.

Hi I wanted to buy a wp8 device but after reading this article I gave up buying a wp8 device. :( Because no custom roms is a deal-breaker for me. So looks like its not possible to unlock wp8 devices for now but I don't know is it gonna be in the future. I'm asking because I don't know how unlocking process works because I never used a wp device. I know how android system works but I have no idea about wp devices. So if you guys can explain if it can be done in the future or why we will never be able to unlock wp8 devices. :good:

Edit: Its no longer a deal-breaker for me :) I thought unlock was important as much as jailbreak on iphone and root on android. But thanks for helping me realise wp devices do not need unlock :)

Edit2: I bought a lumia 920. You guys were right wp is awesome. Only things I am missing from android is file explorer, rotation lock and notifications.
[Windows Phone 8 General] martan1981:
Yes you definitely dont know much about WP. You never used one, but you know that custom ROMs are dealbreaker for you. Nice.

Just to let you know, custom roms are not important at all in WP. They dont bring much improvement, far less than in android.
[Windows Phone 8 General] leventccc:
You can be right, custom roms means a lot on android and jailbreak means a lot for iphone. So I thought unlock is important like jailbreak/root. But if not, I'm definitely gonna buy a wp8 :) Thanks for the info about roms. I want to ask, can we install local apps like we can do at android without unlocking?
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Windows Phones do not need custom ROMs, because all the mess that's happening on base ROMs for android is not present, which is why custom ROMs exist for android in the first place, and not because of customization or whatever else then less enlighten users use ROMs for.
[Windows Phone 8 General] thebobp:
Er, custom ROMs aren't "needed" anywhere.* They exist because developers have an itch for some feature or bugfix not available in stock - in other words, they have something that improves over stock in some way. Perhaps you should read the feature lists of some WP custom ROMs.

No possible improvements over stock is not a good thing no matter how you spin it. That said, I think the OP is overreacting calling it a "deal-breaker". Well, it depends on what you're looking for in "jailbreaking". This jailbreak feature, for one, won't be available.

*Edit: You know this because the users of custom ROMs are always in the vast minority.
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Something that needs improvement is messed up in my books:) sooo....

Yeh the Op is kinda exaggerating with the deal-breaker though.
[Windows Phone 8 General] thebobp:
As I've just pointed out, improvement is not needed. On the other hand, is improvement improvement? Why, yes.
[Windows Phone 8 General] link68759:
Bite your tongue, sir: custom roms are practically necessary for android. Stock ROMs have faulty GPS drivers, crapware, bloatware, SPYWARE even. I have a friend who bought a low end android phone from sprint. Two mistakes: being on sprint and going low end on android. It's getting better, but android is a huge resource hog, and having all the carrier crap on there makes it worse. My friend's phone is quite literally unusable; it locks up very often. Even after I hard reset it for him. On android, stock is [probably] ALWAYS bad.

WP8 however.... I have a custom ROM for my WP7 device, but everything I've done with the custom ROM is natively supported in WP8. So I guess I could live with a stock WP8 ROM. The only thing I'd be missing out on is free tethering.

Carriers, if you charge for tethering... **** you.
[Windows Phone 8 General] vetvito:
^ in your opinion.
[Windows Phone 8 General] fatclue:
Free tethering? My experience tells me that only the Dell Venue Pro is incapable of wi-fi tethering because of the chipset. The carriers have disabled the feature but a lot of phones can be interop unlocked and have the feature enabled. Heck, the Quantum requires little effort since it has an onboard reg edit tool. Google be thy friend.
[Windows Phone 8 General] E:V:A:
Amazing! (And incredibly stupid!)

This will eventually flood this forum with unhappy users, wishing to mod their devices...after having seen their cool AOS counter parts.
[Windows Phone 8 General] lugi93:
Nothing to mod it works out of the box. I dont even see a point in current custom roms wp7.5..just few added apps & unlocked for piracy (ok "homebrew")
[Windows Phone 8 General] dragonide:
Hacking is by definition something that should be impossible.

Hacking is based on using some

unpredicted

exploit to workaround security.

If today we knew that Custom Roms would be going to be possible on WP8 then Microsoft could fix the exploit.

Don't blame Microsoft for this of course, you know most (I did

not

say every) people wants to unlock their phone to sideload pirated apps.

That's simply the truth. This is what happens all around me on iPhone and Android ecosystem.

Now the real question is : how much interesting (or clever) is speaking about the existence of exploits on something you don't even own/know ?

Articles like the linked one looks nothing more than a big flame to me, and this topic is no different.

P.S. It is really funny to find out some users are particularly attracted by this kind of topic, isn't it?
[Windows Phone 8 General] charlatan01:
You realize that the place you're posting to caters to the small percentage of people who want / use any flexibility afforded them, right?

The elegance of a closed system (relatively speaking) is the stability you can accomplish. This is the apple model to a tee, and for most people it's fine.

BUT, flexibility is where windows the traditional OS, Android, and Linux shine. There are always optimizations that can be done, always tweaks, custom apps galore. Android ROMs have spoiled us, masses be dammed.
[Windows Phone 8 General] dragonide:
It has began.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Jola66:
I actually am for Custom ROMs. Sorry, but Devs sometimes just do a better job at things. A Interop Unlocking and Custom ROMs made my Trophy a heck of a lot more enjoyable to use.

And I disagree with all the lock downs MS has in place. Email, messaging clients, browsers, keyboards. We are all stuck with one version. No chance to use versions a Dev could provide that would give us more options and features. Sometimes, Devs just do things better. The MS locked apps I listed, among others, can all be improved upon. Rather than waiting or hoping MS does more to improve them, itd be a lot nicer to have options of 3rd party devs.
[Windows Phone 8 General] dansus72:
So WP8 has a file explorer?
[Windows Phone 8 General] link68759:
Now that I have WP8 I no longer have custom ROMs, and here's a list of things I'm missing.

-Being able to back up and restore isolated storage (aka game saves and apps with braindamaged devs who don't export to skydrive)

-Setting goddamn custom notification sounds.

-Enabling internet sharing on AT&T

-Bluetooth file transfer for unsupported files

-USB Video out

And the biggest thing was updates to the latest build (7.8), because you either have to wait years to get the stupid thing, or you just never get it. WP8 seems to have solved that issue, but it's a big thing for 7.x

There is significantly more homebrew than apps that can be pirated too... So no, WP8 is not perfect out of the box yet.

[Windows Phone 8 General] j_m_jackowski:
IMHO there is stil need for custom roms with WP8. This system for many might need to be changed. For example (I had Lumia 920 but beeing annoyed I've sold it) People Hub. I had Facebook account and LinkedIIn configured and connected with Microsoft Account. Hopefully People Hub allows me to display only those people from my Outlook Account with photos of them from LinkedIn or Facebook. That's good. Where is the problem - mail app which seems not to use People Hub filtering and after I've started writing somebody's email it was trying to suggest me all of the people from my linkedin and facebook. Facebook is a toy for me, email is a tool for work. I dont's wanna havve facebook contacts in my email. What's more - I don't wan't to see non skype contacts on my skype list. How to solve it ? Only custom rom may help with modified People Hub service.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
if you're not being sarcastic, and really asking- i'm taking no offense of malice either way, just answering :)

no, there is no file explorer. this is hotly debated over and over again as to wether its a needed feature or just a 'gimmie' app on other platforms. some even argue that a file explorer on wp8 makes it insecure. whatever.

i'm seeing fewer and fewer posts here on xda pertaining to wp. even the extremely optimistic wpcentral forum is turning a little more 'real' since MWC turned into a nokia-only festival for wp.

anyway, i'm getting sidetracked. hope i answered your question nicely :)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wontstoptalking:
How likely is this horror story? (sorry I couldn't fit the whole question in the title)

My device is just great other than the screen lift. I could begrudgingly live with the screenlift. It has no dead pixels, streaks, speaker blowouts, etc. It's a C7O, four days old.

Google Support just accepted my replacement request, and I have a new N7 waiting for me to click the button. But I'm afraid to do this because compared to a lot of N7's, mine is actually in really good condition besides the screen lift. What are the odds that the send me some C6O that has screen left, four dead pixels, and a speaker that doesn't work?

However, I do have a friend who has had the N7 for a month now. I inspected his device yesterday and it's flawless. No screen lift, no dead pixels, no nothing... no fair!

Anyway, what do you think? Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparrothead1:
I know this doesn't answer your question but .... how pronounced is your screen lift? Would you have noticed it if you hadn't read about it? Does it affect the operation of your N7?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3vo kid:
If the screen lift isn't that bad then I would keep it. My first device had no screen lift but it had dead pixels and a bad touch screen, 2nd device had really bad screen lift and dead pixels. My 3rd device has almost unnoticeable screen lift, but everything else is perfect

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergusstrachan:
If I get you correctly, this is similar to what I get on Three:

Typically, when coming out of the train tunnel before Bristol Pkway, my GS3 on Three says it's roaming (the little R), and consequently it doesn't let me connect.

You might get it with Orange/T-Mobile since they've now joined up. Their advice is "don't worry, you won't be charged", which if feck-all use when it doesn't let you connect.

I don't think you can get rid of the R icon, but perhaps enabling roaming in the settings above will mean you can still connect. (I have yet to try).

I'd like to know why the mobile is so stupid that it connects to another network in the UK. Sure, I could tell it to connect only to Three, but you have to set it back when you actually are roaming!

As experiment try to download a map for other country and see if it completes if not so incompatible

Send message to developer email found in google play in app download page

If rooted may be make a nandroid backup then try to change build properties manual via app like root explorer or auto via app like rom control lite then clear app cash and try download again if problem restore backup

You could try to download app like titanium backup to your phone and install also the app then download map in your phone then make backup of app+data then restore to tab

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Castochi:
Okay, so this is my situation. I just moved houses as I'm starting university and I am not going to have Broadband for at least a month because of house line problems. I thought I was going to be just fine because I have an All-You-Can-Eat data plan that allows me to tether and download as much as I want, no restrictions. That was until I dropped my Nexus face-down on the street and the screen is now completely smashed. So basically I am stranded in a new town with no friends, no internet and no phone. Luckily, I have the phone insured against accidental damage, so my provider will fix it free of charge, but it will take one week before I can even send it, and another ten days after that before I can even begin to expect it back. I bought a USB Mobile internet dongle and that's what I'm using to write this, but it is desperately slow and it loses connection often... And Pandaria goes out in three days so I'm at my wit's end right now. I'm on the verge of buying a relatively affordable BlackBerry just so I can use my SIM in it and tether, but would rather not.

My Galaxy Nexus is rooted, and is running Jelly Bean. I can tell the phone does turn on because I can receive calls (and answer them using the headphones' button).

My question is if it is possible to set up tethering via a PC Desktop Software. I draw the comparison to RIM's BlackBerry Desktop Software which allows enabling of mobile internet modem capabilities by only connecting the BlackBerry via USB and clicking a button. Absolutely no need of touching the phone. Because the way I see it, it *should* be theoretically possible to edit the phone's settings values SOMEHOW by having access to it from a PC via a data cable, just as in Windows one can edit a registry key instead of enabling an option in Control Panel. Granted, it is a more complicated, archaic method, but the alternative exists.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FrostyF7:
That's a harsh situation you are in. I don't think there is a way to tether like that. Although I'm not very sure. I don't tether much.
