[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zzoinks:
I was just reading through the One VX announcement and I was wondering if it offered any hope for a Sense 4 and possibly a future Jelly Bean port for the Vivid? I know that Sense 4 was stalled because of the RIL problems. Is this hardware similar enough to the Vivid to give us some hope?

-Brett.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mg2195:
Unfortunately...our vivid and the one vx have completely different hardware...different processor, different graphics processor...I don't see us being able to port anything from it...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zzoinks:
Darn. I saw the VX was a dual core Qualcomm processor with LTE and a qHD resolution screen.I was hoping that might be similar enough to help out.

Thanks for the reply.

-Brett.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] altanimi:
Well, many of the early Sense 4 ports for the Sensation line were based off of the Ville RUU.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
There was only 1, that was never fully working. The VilleC/C2 is the Asian version of the One S that they were releasing with the Snapdragon S3 (like ours). A Sense 4 port from that specific Ville may work out better, but the rest of the One line (XL (Evita), V (Primo), S (Ville), and the new VX) all has Snapdragon S4's, with different GPUs then our device. The International One X (Endeavor) has a quad core Tegra 3, looks like the new One X+ does as well. The ATT Version of the X+ is getting a Tegra 3 chipset as well, so it must be a new chipset with LTE

Whats up guys...tried posting in the forum I wanted but I guess ima "noob"...anyways I'm running wicked v5 with trinity kernel...I've also tried ktoonsez which I think is an awesome kernel by the way...only reason I switched was to test this...anyways with either kernel I'm having trouble with vibrations...they start out nice and strong but after awhile it gets to the point where I can barely feel anything at all...I'm talking about the soft keys (menu and back buttons), and the keyboard...If restart my phone the vibrations are nice and strong but after maybe couple of hours I'll barely be able to feel it...I even go into settings and go into haptic feedback and raise the vibration level and the same thing still happens...even with ktoonsez kernel where u can open up ktweaker and increase vibration intensity to 126, I do and the same thing happens...is this a something that has to do with the kernel, Rom or my phone?...am I doing something wrong or are there there's experiencing this?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muntos:
Hi,

my girlfrend has a HTC Legend and some time ago I flashed her phone with CM7, don't remember exactly the steeps but it was a very long procedure (something with gold card, ruu, etc...). It was also rooted.

Now her phone started to crash on opening any application and now it doesn't boot anymore, it is stuck on CM7 spinning boot logo...

I don't know what to do, I have a Galaxy S2 where I can boot in recovery mode and wipe cache, dalvik or install new ROM.

Here what I managed to do is to start the phone with Volume Down + Trackball + Power into a menu (it say HBoot 1.01) but here I don't know what to do .

Please help !

Thank you.

Nobody please?

How can I do a factory reset/clear data?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alligator_asl:
When you are in the bootloader menu use the vol-down / vol-up-buttons and go to recovery, then press power. You see a red triangle. Then press vol + and the power button. You are now in the blue recovery menu. Goto wipe data/factory reset and then to wipe cache partition.

Then you can reboot.

Good lock!
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muntos:

Solved my problem by wiping data and cache

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rockky:
I have numerous chargers at home all of which have charged my evo, gs2, Nexus 7, etc.

Can these be used interchangeable in the Note 2 without harming the charging process?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] 917:
As long as the Voltage is the same (5V) there is no Problem. But you should have a charger at 2 Amper for optimal charging speed.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Noodles5666:
I just tried charging mine with the normal microUSB charger I use for every other phone I have had and it took 7.5 hours to charge from 5%-62%. I used the stock charger that was in the box and it charged it in 3.5-4 hours no problem. Seems like the charger in the box charges faster.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] WendigoNL:
reading this thread made me curious, my NOTE II should arrive in about a week, I can't tell for myself yet, what is the A (amps) specification mentioned on the original charger?

as i come from HTC, my current chargers go up to 1 A current. witch is the double A a standard USB port will give unless crossover'd .

thanks in advance!

----

in the wiki thread i found the answer, the supplied charger delivers 5 V 2 A output to the device.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mg35pt:
2A! Same as the Tab 10.1 charger.

Filling a 3100mAh battery requires some grunt.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] max.android:
i think even the usb cable makes a difference..

when i use the stock usb cable with the stock charger ..my s3 would charge up comparatively faster than with the other usb cable connected to the same stock charger.:rolleyes :confused:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mg35pt:
It certainly does! :good:

All electrical cables have some resistance. Very low (but not zero) for quality cables, sometimes quite noticeable for thin and cheap offerings.

From Ohm's Law we know that voltage drop will be proportional to current. A cable with a resistance of just half an ohm will loose about 0.5% at 50mA. That's pretty much nothing. However, at 2000mA the loss reaches 20%.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] avetny:
dude use any charger, just don't use LG charger **** !!!!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] b4d5h0t:
You must use the 5volt 2amp charger and cable provided or a replacement with the same output or youll either be waiting for ever for it to charge or do some damage.

I tryed using my note 1 charger rated at 1amp and guess what? It took about twice as long to charge.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
Some of my old 1 Amp chargers aren't happy at all, and will often decide to stop charging randomly.

I though it was something weird with my phone, but after switching chargers it never happened again.

USA official charger

This are the images of the official USA charger that will comes when they release the device in USA

And yes its a 2.0A charger, so the SIII charger isn't appropriate for NoteII.

this is the kind of charger used in Canada, USA, and Latin America, i bought this NoteII in Mexico from an authorized Samsung provider, of course factory unlocked 710usd, like 10,900mxn.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mcdill the pig:
Has anyone tried a 3A charger? Just wondering if this would speed up charging even more than the standard 2A charger.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] kt-Froggy:
No, it won't speed it up. It's what the device takes from a charger, and not what a charger can potentially supply. If the device's charging circuit is spec'd for up to 2A current, that's what it will suck out of a charger, not more. You can connect a 30A lab power supply, and it will still be the same 2A (or less) input. To speed up the charging process, you need to mod the charging circuit of the device itself.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch0de:
I love my nexus S. my most major complaint is Battery life, it only last about half as long as my EVO shift did. I have to start charging around 1 or 2 pm.

My second major complaint is lack of Visual Voice mail. It feels like the dark ages having to "Call" my voice mail and listen to them one by one. I can't for the life of me figure out why they took this away.

Yes i know i know, Google voice. The problem with that is i already have a Google voice account i use for one of my business. I have it linked to three phones. It gets Text and Voice mails all day long. So i can not Use that as my primary Voice mail app for my other business and personal phone.

Some of you suggest Youmail, the issue i have had with that is every time my phone is out of service my clients and friends get a message saying the Voice mailbox is not setup. It is a flaky service.

I have also tried to get the Epics voice mail app to work and it did the the ghosting made it almost impossible to use.

Had i known about this from the start it might have influenced me to get a different phone.

So any-way if anyone has some suggestions it would appreciate it.

Is it possible to update the baseband only without reflashing the entire ROM. Can I update to a newer baseband without using an RUU package?

Thanks,

K
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] denversc:
Absolutely. Just flash a radio image. Most ROMs (other than RUUs and possibly stock ROMs), in fact, do not come with a radio image so your radio image will persist between ROM flashes.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] slipsibm:
I am running Stock ATT ICS rooted on my Skyrocket. I have TWRP installed for recovery. My company changed its policy to require device encryption. I can boot into TWRP 2.2.2.0 and it prompt me for a password but when I enter my password, I get a message that the password is invalid. Everything I read says that TWRP should work. Is there something else I need to do? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Splaktar:
Were you able to figure this out? I'm getting the same issue on my Hercules (T989).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] slipsibm:
I was told that the samsung encryption isn't supported by twrp, There is a package on the play store called Online Nandroid Backup that you can use while running that gets around the backup problem, I have no idea how you would use this to recover but I assume if you wiped and restored from this backup, you would have an un-encrypted device that would then need to be re-encrypted. In the mean time, I turned encryption off..... :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Splaktar:
Bummer. It looks like the T989 is in the same situation as well, not supported. Looks like the Galaxy Nexus and only a few other devices support encryption of the /data partition in TWRP.

I guess that I'll see if I can turn off encryption and then do my backup, upgrade to a new ROM, and then turn encryption back on.

Thanks.

So I kinda don't like the blue grid in the background of the weather lockscreen, and I was wondering if depending in the weather, the background would change and use the actual moving weather scenes from the weather app, is that possible?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mattemer:
Do you mean the live weather wallpaper? You can set that, then use it as your lock screen.

---------- Post added at 12:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 AM ----------

Now that I think about this some more, I'm guessing you want the forecast as well. There's an option in the weather app that displays the forecast every morning. So the live weather wallpaper plus that option may give you want you want.

Still, I get this error and the device cannot connect.

i already read about rooting and all the terms included but my case is very specific

my Xperia arc S(LT18) has a password when i received from a friend i think someone send it to him from the U.S or Europe not sure(it has a vodafone Sim in it) so i tried to fix it through the sony update program

but i would receive an error message that my ip has been blocked due to device being brown phone

so i cannot format and cannot enter the phone so i tried to root it and followed the instructions from this link

androidlegend.com/how-to-root-sony-xperia-arc-s-lt18i-running-ics-4-0-4-firmware

anyways after flashing when i try to turn on the phone i get an error message saying "Sorry, the phone has crashed please wait until the crash data is saved and do not pull battery!" also flashing is hapening very fast i think the problem is that i am not enabling the option allow debugging and unknown services anyways now i cannot even reach the start screen

hope someone can help

I have never come across this issue, but if I had that problem, I would most definitely flash the firmware again just to make sure I get a clean, issue-free phone. Do note however, flashing does fail on occasions so flashing more than once is sometimes necessary.

i flashed but it seems it didnt work because theflashing happened very quickly like 10sec but i saw in some youtube videos that it should take 2-3min

theses are the last 4 lines in the flashtool

I'm using the Evo 4G LTE if that's necessary information or not... Lately for some reason, every time I close out an app and then re-enter it, it loads back up to where I last was or last thing done rather than the main page. For example, open facebook app, it takes me directly to the last notification I looked at rather to my newsfeed and it will continue to take me to that notification when opening the program until I look at another notification. With instagram, it takes me to the image upload screen, the one where you crop the image before uploading it; all the time. It gets annoying having to navigate back to the main page. Anyone know what's up?

How is that multi-tasking by, for instagram's example, sending me to the upload page of a picture that i've already uploaded? At that point I shouldn't be brought to that page again with the same photo after I've already cropped and uploaded it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mushroom_cult:
It's going to open up where you left off - that way you can, say, start writing a post with tapatalk, go respond to an SMS, then go back to writing your post without losing your progress.

Instagram is one app, it's going to behave how it's designed to behave. I would assume it's taking you back to that page because it can't really take you to the post-upload page. So it just goes to the point nearest where you left off... but I don't use instagram, so that's just speculation.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drak24:
Your explanation is how I believe multi-tasking is supposed to work and has been but let me explain what's happening in terms of a message board. I click new reply, write my statement and then click submit reply, and i'm now back at the thread page. So in essence, if I now switch out of the browser then go back to it, I should be back on the thread page. But instead, it brings me back to the reply page where I would be writing my response before clicking submit reply (if that paints the picture anymore clearly).

It's not just with instagram but it's with facebook and a few other apps. After doing some messing around after reading your response I did kill the tasks, re-open the apps and they loaded to their default pages as they should. so it's something that's causing these apps to re-open to the last action you did inside the app rather than the last thing you were viewing in the app.
