[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maritimesbob:
After flashing a few more roms, it seems the volume and overall sound quality is considerably better in Sense based roms. AOSP Jellybean and ICS roms, the sound is tinny and quieter.

I flashed two Sense 4.0 ICS roms and the sound quality and volume was just as good as ARHD Sense 3.0 and 3.5 roms. I flashed Ice Cold Sandwich and Jellytime, both had the tinny sound and lower volume.

Installing a volume+ app (or similar) seems pretty pointless, it just distorts the sound even more by upping the treble?

I wonder what Sense does to make the sound much better than a Sense-less phone?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adilrenzu:
Volume with sense based roms is good and volume+ works best for cm or aosp, aospx or others.but u can get better sound with volume+ on sense roms aswell.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDamo1980:
Hi everyone.

I have a galaxy S3 and received the ota jelly bean update whilst at work where I get little to no signal. I cancelled it until I got home. Nowwhen I check for updates it says "Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Please try later."

I decided to update via kies. It downloaded the firmware components fine but it then froze when it should have been downloading the update. I left the phone connected for over 2 hours and it didn't progress past 0%.

All help appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lelinuxien52:
Hello,

If the phone has downloaded the "Over The Air" update, you will see a file nammed update.zip on your SdCard. Reboot on Recovery Mode (Press hold VolumeUp + Menu + Power keys) et try applying the update.

If it doesn't work, you should try using ODIN (with computer if you smartphone isn't rooted).

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] closeddoors1559:
Hello,

I am using the awesome WP7 ROM by HD2O (build 8107) for months now, and it's working great. However, I wanted to try running Android on it, but the thought of not liking it and not being able to go back to my previous setup, including apps, games and personal stuff, is driving me nuts.

I already found the Backup application that uses Zune to backup settings and apps, but according to the creator it doesn't work with the HD2, so I'm stuck.

Last question: In case there's no backup tool available for the HD2, will I still be able to reuse my activation code I got from Microsoft (and maybe see my previous downloaded apps and games) after trying Android?

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dxdy:
if you make full backup this back phone to date when you make backup (not date from calendar then apps and others)... also this process not recommended if you want flash new, newer or ROM from other author

recommended is to make backup of apps (one backup for one app)... you can use WPDM for that (read my ROM Install Tutorial from signature)

i flashed maybe more than 100 times WP7 ROM-s on my HD2 and always used same Live activation code...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] closeddoors1559:
Thank you for answering both questions. After couple of hours trying to backup my settings using WPDM, I think I'm not wanting to go through the hassle to backup my apps (I just got them for free anyway).

I guess it's best to reinstall Windows Phone and my apps completely in case I don't like Android.

Follow the instructions. And, if you are running Windows as your native OS on your computer, nevermind the part where it mentions installing the Windows VirtualBox.

Again follow the instructions, and you should be fine. Otherwise, send me a PM and I'll do whatever I can to help.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lolo9393:
Yes, no virtual box needed!

I confirm, after some uses of the "resurrector" I have done that the virtual box is not needed when having a windows 7 computer, just reboot from ubuntu, in my case, to win 7 WITHOUT UNPLUGING the device worked fine (several times). A huge and welcomed simplification!!!! Then go Odin or Adb as you like. good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
Thanks for your confirmation there. But, what exactly do you mean boot from Ubuntu to Windows 7? Are you running dual operating systems on one computer? If that's the case, that's not a feature that the everyday user is going to use.

By the way, does anyone know if the resurrector software is compatible with Windows? If not, Windows users will have to set up a Linux VirtualBox.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lolo9393:
I was only windows 7 user and when I went in trouble I just installed a second boot with a linux ubuntu partition, that means I can choose at boot the system i want to start. easy for everybody!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
That's what I thought you meant. I think that's great that you partitioned your disk for dual operating systems.

But, to be perfectly honest, I really doubt that there are many users in this forum who have done that.

From what I've seen, most users run a dedicated OS and install a VirtualBox to meet their needs.

It may need to be JTAG'd. This is basically a recovery for a hard bricked device. You will have to find a JTAG service to do it for you, because it is very hard to do and the equipment is very expensive.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demikos89:
Hi.

Im having a problem since I bought my S2.

i cant make my external sdcard work in recovery on my s2. Im running RootBox 3.0 Jelly bean now but this hasnt worked even in ICS.

Whenever I try to flash something from external sdcard on my phone in cwm recovery it says "Error mounting /sdcard" or even when trying to just mount /sdcard it gives me this error.

I can acces my sdcard from PC or from phone, it just doesnt work in recovery.

Id like to know how to fix this.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ukramch:
i had a motorola defy with locked bootloader. There were no hope for updates and for custom roms. Till dev (quarx) did it. Now defy has jelly bean (cm10). Lets search for devs and make a donation app, so they can buy our phone add develop one great rom.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] hietsu:
Great idea, but do we have enough people? No one will buy the phone if we can donate only ~100€
[LG Optimus 4X HD] reas0n:
well, not to develop ROM, but better to sacrifice their/his phone to try unlocking bootloader..

http://www.lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource-detail.jsp?detailCustomerModelCode=LGP880

we've now source code, i think it'll help us
[LG Optimus 4X HD] babymatteo:
Yes it will...well at least for a custom kernel i think. Still, drivers have to come from Nvidia. And everyone knows about their reputation when it comes providing open source codes and such.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
incorrect, i made the Sense custom for Defy way before even CM9 was invented, but correct 2nd-init was working already then and no none really spend much investigating how to use it early on, but that was probably 1yr+ ago.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ukramch:
Quarx was the first one who figured it out, how to 2nd boot the cm7 rom on defy. maybe he could give some tips for devs in our comminity.

PS: i can remember your rom
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dexter_nlb:
:) i did mine in feb.2011 , Quarx did his first post of cm7 in april 2011, i do not know if that helps your memory. (i did check all his post on the topic) . I strongely believe i was utilizing 2ndinit on defy on a customrom, and i was introducing it here on o4x for now.

but to stay on topic, no one seems to have faith in a CM10 for O4X here, i tried to port, but that never went well, and compiling only helps so far as the ril driver is documented by LG here.

but the rest should be straight forward, since we share chipset with OneX which got quite far now.

btw,

i did post my CM10 rom as nandroid backup using 2nd init , so your request is already existing on o4x, just not with a phone functionality.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ukramch:
Sorry, i had my defy since may 2011. then you are right. at the beginning there were also phone functionality problems, we shouldn't loose faith
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ozeer:
I have downloaded the file and it is .zip file .. It has two files that are kernel and platform files >> Good news :)

Now, I can see all the files for our O4X and everything is clear . We can make modification for it and install it by CWM

I hope you guys all the best with development . The kernel file has the drivers for our O4X ;)

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Matteo 88:
IMHO

As long as the kernel is not signed u cant really use it. i dont remember anyone using 2nd init on milestone for a custom kernel.

they actually just adapted CM for the old kernels wich is a lot of work i think... And that could be done for our 4xHD as well the problem is

actually that u need the devs for it.

And i think no dev really wants 2 work on a standart phone unless he has it and really wants to keep it and mod on it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artilleryman:
Hi guys, i need your help with a problem i have with my new Samsung S3.

I bought it sim free from Amazon UK recently, and i want to update to the latest Firmware via Kies. But unfortunately when i connect to Kies via USB, it does not seem to show my current firmware or offer any updates. The phone is completely new and was sealed when i recieved it. I have renistaled Kies several times and the usb drivers. I have even tried to get it to work on a different computer, but still not working.

I was previously using an S2 and the updates with Kies worked fine with that. I have called Samsung Tech Support, but so far they suggest that i should be patient and wait for the OTA to come. But i am curious to know why Kies is not recognising my device as it should in the first place?

Current Android version is 4.0.4

Any help or advice is welcome.

Cheers.

Install Antutu and check the info, a lot of people have been stung by buying the chinese knockoff SGS3 or 1 lot call it the HDC galaxy S3 though they tend to advertise it as the I9300.... I'm not saying you've bought one but there is the possibilty if you bought it online....

If you find you've bought a knockoff SGS3 then there's no way Kies will recognise it as it isn't a samsung phone...

If you know their actually is an update for your phone rather than updates for other phones then simply use CHECKFUS to download it and flash via ODIN .

[HTC One X] JDogg1329:
Hi guys, looking at buying a One X possibly tomorrow, tossing up between that and a Nexus, so I'm just wondering how the roms are for the One X, are they fully functioning? How is Jellybean? Does the camera work 100%?. I just want to make sure I'm making the right decision, I don't like sense tho haven't used it since 2.3.4, so I'm looking to rom basically as soon as I get it, and I need to know if everything is working, or if there are missing things and big features missing etc. Also how do you like your One X?
[HTC One X] matt95:
here we are again... everything is alright (for me) and official JB is near
[HTC One X] JDogg1329:
Thanks for the reply. So everything is unlocked and relatively easy to flash roms and all that? Just don't want to make a very expensive mistake that's all :P
[HTC One X] matt95:
we don't have S-OFF unfortunately, but you can flash rom without problems
[HTC One X] JDogg1329:
Yeah I've read about that .In your opinion are the specs worth the harder flashing compared to the nexus ?does unlocking the bootloader still boid your warranty?
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Its not hard at all to be honest !

And yes its worth it, its an amazing device.

And now with the build quality being FINALLY issue free(ish) then yeah I'd go for the HOX.

The dev section is extremely active and the ROMs and support are brilliant.

Can't comment for the Nexus though as I only have the Nexus 7, but again that is active and good support.

So if I was you, I'd pick the one that looks/feels more of a phone for "you" and don't worry about unlocking etc. As it can be done on both

And on that note, I think the HOX is a much nicer looking phone.

YES IT VOIDS WARRANTY AS ALWAYS.

Hope this helps.
[HTC One X] Michealtbh:
Depends on which Nexus you're talking about.

LG Nexus > HOX > GNexus

(Too) short answer: no.

Slightly longer answer: this will probably not happen for a looooooooooooong time to come, if ever.

EDIT: it is available in an early alpha (it did take a long time, however). ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
Medium answer - Don't hijack a thread with a topic that has two other threads about it (at least two :p)

I'm interested in this as well. MS has be pretty developer friendly with W8, so potentially it might/someone else might do it. The question of legality might be answered by purchasing a license if they will sell them independently - just like bootcamping a Mac.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xfinrodx:
I haven't seen this software agreement or license... Proof or it didn't happen!

Some of us have nvflash. If we can get a full blob off of an rt device, who knows? As a wise lamp once said, "fact is, there just isn't enough fact!" ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
You may know that even with NVFlash, you cannot scrape the (Android) bootloader from one TF700 and run it on another one, because it is encrypted with a device-specific key. I expect something similar on the RT devices.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
You're a free person, so you can wish reality away as much as you want. The main trouble is with the manufacturers locking down their devices down more and more. Again, this will not happen -- at least not until a long time from now -- and if it does, your TF700 will be EOL. You'll have gone off to another device by then, as the developers will have. No developers and only leechers left = no progression and only nagging, and a broken community.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xfinrodx:
I think my intent was misunderstood. It is really fashionable to act as though you know it all, and insist that others believe as you do. No one thought the HD2 would go the way it did when it was released, but look at how far it went. There are countless other devices that never had anything cool happen with them though. I will reiterate my point with clarification: Without having devices and software to try things with, nothing will happen. With devices and software to try things with, things might or might not happen. But pretending that you have all the answers, good or bad, is just plain ignorant. Uncertainty abounds here, even in the face of a likely void of development or effort.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jgcaap:
The tf600 running android would be great
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
I seem to have missed your post, and with the risk of being dubbed a digital necrophile, I will take the chance of replying.

I do not know your background or justification for calling someone else ignorant, but I will would call that an arrogant stance. "Clarify" all you wish, but -- the fact that I actually agree with your statement that with no one trying and/or possibly sacrificing his/her device in the process for the common good nothing will ever come about notwithstanding -- I do not see you volunteer your device for that purpose either.

Yes, uncertainty abounds all over the world in any field of human endeavour you can think of -- I'm actually a scientist myself so I know this is, unfortunately, a fact -- but that's just stating the blatantly obvious.

Hi,

i can not switch off text-to-speech after flashing a JB ROM.

I know this sounds like a noob question and it probably is and I know I can not be the only/first one to have this problem, but searching only fond me people with the same problem without a solution - May be I did not use the right keywords.

What I Have Done:

* flashed BlackCNA 1.1 (by mistake - don't ask ;) ) on my Galaxy Note N7000

* wipe/factory reset

* flashed BlackCNA 2.1 -> Everything worked Fine ( but TTS)

* Selected a Voice in TTS-Settings and downloaded "German" (Just selected and downloaded it!)

What happens

* Text-to-Speech is ALWAYS on in Chrome, Stock Browser and Facebook App

* In Chrome parts of the screen are marked with an orange border (I think it is talkback displaying, what it speaks)

What I tried

* Check if Talkback is on -> it is "decativated"

* Check if there are in-app settings regarding tts -> I did not find any

* Check if there are Profile/Vehicle-Mode Settings -> I did not find any (or they were switched off)

Am I just blind/stupid or is there a trick I don't know?
