That's how I got it... I'm running FreeGS.

What do you use for a media player? Can you change EQ on the fly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DrgnRebrn:
Stock player. I mostly stream music over BT in my car though, and I can change equalizer settings & hear the difference.

Also, I have my phone speaker set to enhance voice, and it works very well.

I would use the stock player, too, if it didn't include ringtones and every other media file under the sun in the playlists!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REnT52:
Hello,

I was using the Classic ROM v5 and decided to give the v6 a try. I didn't really like it, so I decided to get back to v5, that's when my problems started.

I did everything as usual, wipe data/cache/dalvik and flash rom, the problem is after I flashed the rom my phone it automatically reboots in recovery mod. I tried almost everything, I flashed the rom via Odin, I flashed a new kernel, I tried flashing via CWM (it gets stuck in installation). I don't really know what else to do :(

Some1?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ginopunsalan:
Try flashing a stock Samsung Gingerbread rom like the N7000XXLC1. If it boots, do a full wipe in recovery. Then you have a clean slate to work with.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REnT52:
Ok, I feel like a retarded now LOL I tried flashing a stock ICS rom and it didn't work, didn't even think about the GB one. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ginopunsalan:
Unless you have a safe custom ICS kernel, you are risking bricking your Note with a full wipe. Without a custom, always wipe from GB. You are still booting into recovery so I you have not bricked the phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REnT52:
Yeah, I got that part covered (few months ago I bricked my phone, had to replace the board. I don't really know what happened, it just kept booting on recovery, but I got that fixed :D

Thanks.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMJets:
Anyone Have any luck getting a replacement keyboard to work. I have tried Slideit, Swype, Swiftkey. All of them crash regardless. I can set them up, its just once there ready to go it crashes. Then i have to go back to using the default keyboard. I even tried using the old Nooktools for the original kindle, can't seem to get anything to work. Anybody have any luck?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMJets:
I finnally did this, but what sucks is that in landscape mode the keyboard doesn't fit the screen properly. But in portrait mode the keyboard works amazingly. Guess I will fiddle with some other keyboards till I find one that works if there are any. They really did not want keyboards to work.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMJets:
Bump.

So ive noticed that keyboards do work. in both portrait and landscape, but the landscape only works correctly with the lock screen password. This is due to the home key bar, it covers over part of it. Anyone have a way around this or a fix? possibly settings change to the keyboard apps. Not sure how to work this.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just|Me:
got the same prob with the crashing app. which *.so file is it I need to move for using swiftkey?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMJets:
You need to install SwiftKey normally. Use root explorer go to data/app. I then find SwiftKey and move it to system/app. I then go to data/data find the com.touchtypeSwiftKey go to this folder. Then /lib and right click move the file in lib folder. I move it to system/lib. Restart device then it should work. But be careful
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just|Me:
thx, I'll try later. Did you install the swiftkey or the swiftkey-tablet app?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMJets:
I have SwiftKey 3 tablet
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just|Me:
FINALLY! it works! :D thx!

just wonna leave a step by step instruction in case someone else got the same prob.

install Keyswift tablet (not sure if it works from the Playstore because I sideloaded it) - hit done after installing

use root explorer (or any other file manager with root access) to move the com.touchtype.swiftkey.tablet.full.apk from data/app to system/app

use root explorer (or any other file manager with root access) and navigate to data/date/com.touchtype.swiftkey.full/lib and move the libswiftkeysdk-java-internal.so (it should be the only file in that folder) to system/lib

reboot

open swiftkey and change the preferences the way you like

How do you do it to make it work perfectly with the lock screen password I tried but it did not seem to work maybe you can show me a way before some expert here can make a tool to hide the home key bar.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dsf3g:
A somewhat misleading article. HTC only started selling the Flyer for $299.00 when the company dropped the price to move unsold inventory. At that point I believe the tablets sold rather well. I'm pretty sure HTC couldn't sell the Flyer for $299 and turn a profit. And that's pretty much why HTC has to leave the tablet market. Apple is the only manufacturer that can create consumer interest in a premium tablet, and HTC has never been a value hardware manufacturer. I suspect they don't have the resrouces to muster the necessary economies of scale.

I love my Flyer. It's a top notch device and it's carried me this far. But HTC probably needs to concentrate on phones for the time being, and wait for third parties to prove that there's a viable tablet market for non-Apple products.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Ryno_666:
Htc needs one phone and one tablet and that is all! So far the phone is close.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
HTC's statements capsize the rumors of a new 10" tablet coming anytime soon. But aside from that, there doesn't seem to be any real "news" here. It says they have discontinued tablet sales in the US. Were there any tablets that were still being sold? The Best Buy Flyer was discontinued a long time ago. If the View and Jetstream were still being sold anytime recently, and now being discontinued, it just seems the logical end-of-life for those products. They have been superceded by higher spec devices, and probably haven't been sold in any significant numbers of some time now
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] killerskincanoe:
5", HTC tablet just announced for Japan market early December release. Quad core. 2GB of ram. Full hd screen. Tiny battery tho. Esp compared to the note 2. The note 2 is honestly what might replace my flyer next. If not then I'll hold out for next ten inch tab with super stylus 2GB ram and all that. But thia HTC phablet supposed to have a 440ppi screen
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] j510:
That's a phone
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
Some folks are using the word "phablet" for a device that is a big phone, or a small tablet. Some form factors (like the Galaxy Note, and the Dell Streak before it) are starting to blur the lines a bit.

But yeah, the Butterfly J is being touted as a phone, as far as I've read.

I use both a phone (One X) and a tablet (Flyer), and I'd never give up my Flyer for a 5 inch device, or anything much smaller than 7" for that matter. I'd carry a 5" device in my pocket as phone, yes possibly. But for relaxing at home, or on a plane, 7" is likely as small as I'd ever go.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] flipflop87:
same here, using from DHD to One X, along with my flyer.

wish the support was better, i mwean i wish there was any support from HTC.

I still think HTC will come with a tablet since they seeing how other companies make money of it they wanna jump on too.

Like HTC didnt think it is neccesary to make a phone bigger than 4,7" (One X) now they com with a 5" phone/phablet?

Same will happen with tablets, dont think they will leave the tablet game.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kayoma:
I think it will be same sheat like flyer - only year of support for that tablet and then they will release new one.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] warwickw75:
found a cheap option to buy HTC flyer - is it worthwhile?

laptopsdirect.co.uk/HTC_Flyer_Tablet_Android_-_16_GB_-_7_Wifi_Only__99HMK053-00/version.asp[/url]

is this still worth buying seeing as it has been discontinued?

is it essential to update to latest Android OS?

thanks
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jsimonson0:
I wouldn't buy a wifi-only model. I bought mine because it is also a GSM phone, and that will make me hard-pressed to sell my Flyer. Even though I've since acquired an A500, my Flyer is my day to day tablet because it fits in my back pocket.

If you can find the GSM-unlocked model and the price is right, I'd go for that.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
I wouldn't, seeing as the hardware is well over a year old, and there are better spec'ed devices at this point. How much is the Nexus 7 in the UK? Google appears to be preparing for an update to the N7, also. The 8 GB version was recently removed from the Play Market, which is presumably in preparation for a new 32 GB version (maybe with other hardware updates?).
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jataadroid:
I use mine on a day basis, the hardware in my opinion still performs as needed. Unfortunately an official update will not happen beyond Honeycomb, there are how ever some decent custom Roms. My EVO view is overclocked on stock HC, and runs great. I would still say get a newer one just because the value of the new hardware and OS makes the updated models worth buying. My picks for tablet upgrades are Asus transformer infinity/prime (both these models are great.) Nexus 7. Both choices are worth the price IMO.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rickscafe:
&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;quot;A great learning experience&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;quot;

Thanks for posting this. Absurd quote from HTC's "global online communications manager":

A "learning experience"? What is this, high school? And whose expectations? Not mine. I had to send my Flyer in four times during the warranty period, the result of bad parts and shoddy workmanship. And after that, HTC refused to replace their faulty tablet. After the warranty expired, the charging jack failed. HTC said they would fix it, for a price. Just before I sent payment, I called to confirm and was told that they didn't have that simple part anymore because the tablet had been discontinued. They then returned my now-HTC Brick, and no one from HTC has ever responded to subsequent emails I have sent.

So no tears over HTC leaving the tablet business. No tears if they go out of business altogether, or if their CEO spontaneously combusts during a public appearance. Over a 2-3 year period, my Asus TF-101 has worked perfectly, but my HTC Flyer's a brick now, thanks to HTC's lack of foresight and lack of concern for their customers - or even for keeping their customers. Pathetic people, pathetic company.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
I know at one point there were a few threads talking about this..but is there any cheap way to replace the rear camera lens on the US model galaxy s3? I found the entire back bracket on ebay for roughly $12 shipped from china, but it is for the international version which does not work with our phone. I do believe some one managed to get it to work somehow but before I go ahead and pull the trigger I figured i'd ask if anyone has seen or found anywhere to get this for our US models or perhaps has the original thread bookmarked handy? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] razor237:
I haven't seen anything on changing the the camera and i couldnt find anything searching for it, but for 12 its worth a shot that its the same when you get the old one out you could compare part numbers and stuff or you could take yours out and look for the part number and search for that
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
There was a thread for it and the camera is not interchangeable but you can separate the glued on lens and swap it out.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Parkourkid93:
This may be a stupid question but how do you manage the screens?, I'm trying g to have just one screen and delete the rest but I can't seem to find where I would be able to do that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nbeebe24:
You mean the number of home screens? Just use Nova launcher to edit to your preference
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Parkourkid93:
precise

I was thinking that, but when using the navigational bar tweak, and you press the home button in it, it switches back to the default luncher and not nova, the ROM doesn't come with a default screen manager?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nbeebe24:
Press the menu button and then Manage apps. Go to All then scroll down to Launcher and select that. Once in there go down to Clear Defaults and select that. Press the home button then you'll be prompted to choose a default launcher, choose Nova. Done. When you start with a freshly installed ROM you have a choice of the stock launcher or Nova. The stock launcher doesn't have any customization, that's what you chose

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eArmin:
Would you please explain more. I'm also trying to find a comparision between them.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
IceCold is ICS, Android 4.0. JellyTime is JB, Android 4.1. So all the lovely JB things, like project butter and the minor UI fixes, are in JellyTime but not IceCold. However, since ICS has been around longer, IceCold is more stable and bug-free than JellyTime. IceCold is also AOKP based, while JellyTime is CM10 based, so IceCold has a couple more customizations (though JellyTime has incorporated several non-CM settings, like center clock).

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Mine was rooted when I activated it. I ended up unrooting because there were problems with my activation unrelated to being rooted. Just makes sure you're on the latest firmware first.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
No problem. The reason you should stick with the stock ruu is because if they need software info it will match. I doubt they will hut you never know.

I probably will just root it anyways. If something weird happens, I'll just unroot it and start over.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Yes but stay on a stock rom just to be safe.

Yeah, just until it gets activated, then I can change over to a different ROM.

Thanks again man.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Yea. I remember on the Eris it wasn't possible to activate on anything but a stock rom. On this I'm not to sure so I would go with a sense 2.1 for sure.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pantallica:
I can say if you have verizon you might wanna wait on rooting even if you root but have a stock rom because i sat in their store over an hour and a half one day setting up a new sim card with a samsung stratosphere i rooted and it had the tweaked rom and stock rom and had to unroot cuz their computer couldnt connect to device right and finally after 8 new simcards i just unrooted used my backup of original factory firmware i took before flashing customized stock rom.... I know im a lil late on this but my advice is root it after its been activated...save yourself hassle and embarrassment knowing they are not supposed to help you when your device is rooted...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
This is the reason I never go in the store. I've never had a problem activating a rooted phone. That is why I always suggest going back to a stock firmware though because cm roms and other aosp roms have trouble activating most of the time.
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Hello there guys :D

Theres a question i would like to be answer , i bought a photon off ebay with bad esn , that means i cannot activate it on sprint , thats alright cause i use gsm i live outside the usa , but i might leave to the states in a few months , so my question is , can i use the kddi radio to activate it on At&t ?

Cause esn = imei but on cdma am i right?
[Motorola Photon 4G] br0adband:
The KDDI radio will allow you GSM usage here in the US, correct, but to flash that radio onto the device you're going to have to still be on Android 2.3.4, with an unlocked bootloader as well (at least that's my understanding - I was lucky enough to get a 2.3.4 Photon a few days ago, and I'm avoiding 2.3.5 at all costs meaning the OTA).

As far as "activation" that's not required since the Photon is already unlocked for world operation.

Once you start using the KDDI radio (if you can use it), then you shouldn't have any issues with any GSM carrier here in the US. I currently use mine with T-Mobile prepaid because T-Mobile just turned on their 3G 1900 MHz band here in Vegas about 2 weeks ago and it works great so far.
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
So there shouldn't be any problems with esn and so ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
If I understand correctly, your ESN number should not matter at all for GSM networks. Your phone and account information are linked to your SIM card. At least that's how I understand it. I believe ESN numbers only pertain to CDMA networks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Alright then :D sounds good to me , gonna keep my photon for a while with all this leaking happening *thats what she said*
[Motorola Photon 4G] br0adband:
The ESN is irrelevant for use with GSM networks, it's not read, it's not noted, it's not used at all - this is one particular reason why some "global" phones are popular in the used smartphone markets: if the owner didn't pay the bill on such a phone with the original carrier (Sprint, Verizon, aka CDMA carriers) they typically - but not always - have the option of potentially being able to use the device(s) with GSM capability.

But that's also the reason such devices when sold here in the US almost always lock out the GSM functionality here in the US so, thankfully in some instances it's possible to open or "unlock" that feature - and I don't mean carrier unlock since global phones almost always are unlocked from the factory anyway.

The Droid Bionic I recently had is easily "unlocked" for GSM use just by changing a few characters in the NVFlash; the Photon just requires flashing that KDDI radio but of course you have to have an unlocked bootloader to get that done so...

Either way, if you're on 2.3.4 and you can do the necessary stuff to get that KDDI radio on there, you'll be good to go here in the US for the GSM networks, and then you can revert back if needed too.
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Yeah the photon i got was on 2.3.4 , i already unlocked the bootloader and been messing around with roms and stuff :D & i already had the kddi radio but i just had that doubt about it :]

Another thing , to get a simcard with unlimited data for smartphones on at&t , how much would that be ? :p
[Motorola Photon 4G] br0adband:
There's just no such thing for AT&T, or any provider for that matter. T-Mobile would be your best bet, they have prepaid service that's "unlimited" and you pay by the day, it's $3 and there really are no limitations that I've ever noted - that's what I currently use and it's fairly worthwhile since I don't actually want full blown monthly service or any contracts.

Also, in the US anybody that advertises "unlimited" is basically lying unless you do pay out the nose for it. T-Mobile does have a $30/monthly "true" unlimited plan now but they don't have it for any prepaid stuff, so that means a) you have to set up a 2 year contract and b) you have to sign up for a regular phone plan on top of the $30 so you'd be looking at the 2 year commitment and about $80 a month so, that's not gonna work either.

The T-Mobile $3/day prepaid thing would do great for you if you're just going to be here on a visit or something. If you intend to actually move here permanently and you want something decent, that T-Mobile $30/monthly unlimited on contract would most likely be the best overall right now and who knows when they may change it. It works for 4G as well but unfortunately there's no 4G service with the Photon with that unlocked bootloader and replacement radio.
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Alright let see if i got this

A)So i cant just get the 30/monthly plan from T-mobile without signing up for a regular phone plan?

B)how does the prepaid service for data works? Like how you pay the 3 bucks a day

C)if i get T-mobile as my phone provider for data and so , im gonna get 3G with my photon?

Thanks for being around and answering my questions :cool:
