[HTC One X] Raider0001:
My HOX stopped working today, i have error 495 after a very long wait time before youtube starts to play video and it does not also google play do not want me to download anything - animations and stuff but no download process.

I figured out that it may be my router settings but why is that my other android device have no problem with google play and youtube ?

other thing is that my phone does work with other wifi network,

looks like someone hacked my router and locked some ports for good some of its settings are broken even after i do factory on it...

i flashed new firmware for my router and now its working - but there was some settings i had to change "default settings" that was visible after routers new firmware and those were very wrong

S o l u t i o n

I have had this issue for a long time now. I just used to decide that I'll wait till i get home and download over WiFi (which worked).

But that's not a solution!!!

On my JellyBean One X:

1. Go to Settings

2. In Wireless and Networks, tap on More

3. Select Usage

4. Tap on Menu in top-right corner and make sure Restrict background data is not ticked

5. Also, uncheck Limit mobile data usage (a message appears saying that all background data restrictions will be disabled).

It is the background data restriction that causes this issue (atleast for me).

I had done the whole shabang:

Clear google play cache, data, etc. re-login with Google account, reboot, etc.

Anyone know if this can be done?

I deleted it from my Nexus 5 and the phone crashed overnight. The screen went black. You might call it soft bricked.

Fortunately comma I flashed it the next morning using the Nexus root toolkit. My preference would be to name the developer of that miraculous program because he deserves all the accolades for it. Unfortunately comma I'm unable to at this time.
[LG Optimus 3D] aymnahmd:
HAY EVERYONE :) HOPE YOU ARE ALL RIGHT

I just have some questions about the optimus 3d okay :)

first how about its GPS and the signal strength,,,i have read a post saying that when the gps is turned on and you open the maps or any navigation app the GPS signal drops and lost and you will have to wait until it catches again a new signal....so i want to know if this is right ??and how long the phone needs to catch a GPS signal with cold start not hot start ???? how many minutes or seconds it should takes ????

the SECOND question is that in the sun how is the display ??? does it displaying everything well or it will be dimmmed and nothing appears because of the sun light ???? and the ppi good or bad ???? it is 217 ppi ...

Finally will it get ICS update ???

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your HELP
[LG Optimus 3D] aymnahmd:
please if any one know anything about it pleaaaase tell me because i am hesitating to buy it or not .... i want to know about the strength of the GPS and time taken to get a fix of signal GPS ..... and is the camera has PANORAMA shot ????
[LG Optimus 3D] Pät:
1. If you use Gps with the help of Agps he fixes it quite fast (the aGps). I wouldnt rely on only Gps cause it can takes 2/3 min to get in contact and the signal breaks quite often, but it also depends on your location so my values musnt apply to you :P

2.The screen itself is okay you can adjust the settings manually and even in the sun you can read quite well. The resolution in 2D mode is okay but in 3D to less :P

3.Lg support is very very very bad!! Xsball managed to port Ics from Su760 but its not yet full functional. So dont rely on further Updates from Lg.

Now my question to you is why do you want the O3D ? If you´re just searching for a cheap Dualcore i´d look for another Phone (sth like Galaxy s2)

If you think you will use pretty much the 3D function (i stopped using it ;) Its a good Option.
[LG Optimus 3D] boltthrower56:
First of all , Xda and other development communities were created mostly because of the lack of support and understanding of the nature of open-source software. They were meant to give people absolute freedom to do what they want , they failed or didn't. That's where xda and the other communities step in.

If everything was perfect we wouldn't need xda , so i think it's worth the sacrifice.

Of course that doesn't justify what LG does but i'm sure as hell , i don't regret buying this phone. I probably wouldn't even join xda if i had a nexus or s3.

So i think , if you really like it you should go for it. Parallax barrier screen is low on resolution but if you take a shot then look at it in a 3D TV you would like it.

Camera is good and 1080p video resolution is really cool.

Considering that it was once a flagship phone for LG , it's made of really good materials.

I couldn't say the same for HTC EVO 3D though.

The phone is relatively fast , price-efficient , well designed...

You would also want to consider HTC EVO 3D , which is the main rival of P920.

P920 kicks it's ass most of the time in benchmarks but with the wider system memory , better software support from HTC and The Amazing "Sense Interface" , i would say it's worth a look.
[LG Optimus 3D] Pesach85:
If you want to get a 3D phone it's better to switch to a Optimus 3D MAX which as some more power in performance but i don't know if it's in your market.

Anyway the Optimus 3D is in my hopinion the best 3D phone actually in commerce.

If you don't need the 3D feature there are better smartphones! At the same price you can get a Galaxy Nexus i9250 and the new Optimus L9 is very similar in fact of performance to a Nexus i9250 but the price is a bit higher because it's new!
[LG Optimus 3D] 2old4toys:
If you really want 3D, get the updated 3D Max. Vs the original O3D, the Max has has double the RAM, 20% more speed from the CPU, much slimmer sleeker design, is lighter, LED centered between the camera lenses... Is the screen brighter too? I could go on... As a daily use 3D equipped phone, you'd probably be happier with the updated Max.

However, if you don't care about 3D or even if your are just not sure that you will use 3D that often, you have many many many better choices for android phones.

The only good reason to spend your money on an original O3D is because you WANT and must have 3D, can't afford the extra cost for the Max, but still want a great 3D enabled smartphone. If that is not the case, get a non-3D smartphone.

To conclude: Lets pretend that the O3D delivered a GPS with instant lock-on. That the screen was 100% viewable on the brightest sunniest of days. That Jellybean was the current LG provided OS... EVEN then, if you bought the O3D for anything other than the 3D feature, then it'd be for the wrong reason.

If you are getting an O3D for free and it is the only phone you have access to... then who cares if GPS is slow, can't read the screen outdoors and you are stuck on FroYo. Live with it. Beggars can't be choosers...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stratax:
I have a HTC One S atm and honestly I cannot stand the pentile screen one bit. the blacks/greys are really the only good looking colors. I like everything else about it though, besides the front facing cam quality which I never really use anyways. I have had my eyes on the one x for a long while but never could get my hands on one and im thinking about selling my one s to get it.

Anyways, with the one x+ coming out should I still buy this? the only upgrade I see is ROM memory, and the front facing cam. oh and the tegra 3 which has similar performance as the s4. or is there more?

I also have my eyes on the htc x8, but no clue when that is coming out.

thanks!

edit: it would be nice to hear other peoples opinions on the phone, both cons and pros :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
The S4 has better performance than the Tegra 3.

The main difference in One X and One X+ is that the One X+ has removable SD card and a quad core. I think there is a little bit more RAM, and a better camera/screen.

The One X is a great phone, but I don't think there's an official release date yet, so you can wait if you want. Either phone will still be amazing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stratax:
Can you show the source you saw that it has a better screen and a removable sdcard slot? says neither on the official site. says that it comes in other quantities like 32gb, 64gb. and better battery performance. Yeah im not sure if I am going to wait cause it will be 400+ when it comes out anyways and I wouldn't like to pay that when the one x is now around $300.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
Oh, sorry, I think I got the One X+ confused with the HTC J Butterfly, which has the removable storage.

The X+ has more internal storage, and I think 2GB of RAM instead of 1, as well as a quad core

http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/17/...nning-5-inch-1080p-j-butterfly-phone-in-japan

that's what I was thinking of

http://reviews.cnet.com/smartphones/htc-one-x-at/4505-6452_7-35477659.html

The one X+ has a tegra 3 quad core, benchmarks show that the S4 in the North American One X performed better than the Tegra 3 international one x, take it as you will. But I cant say if the processor is better without seeing a comparison
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stratax:
http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one-x-plus/#specs still 1gb RAM

definitely not worth $100 upgrade. and the j butterfly is a bit too big for my taste even with the expandable storage and SLCD 3. now the x8 looks amazing, pretty much a smaller one x with wp8. im not going to get the first wp8 handset that comes out though, like I did with wp7 and got super bored of the OS.

I think my mind is pretty much set.

How do you like your one x?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
Best phone on the market, IMO - besides the 16GB and no expandable storage, but it's a small price to pay, honestly.

the SGS3 is nice, but I honestly love sense 4+

I came from the HTC Aria and Sense 2.1 was just meh.

I might get it if I can sell the One X for a good price, since it's still in mint condition. Otterbox'd, screen protector. I treat it like my baby
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MistaButters:
The One X+ is worth it just for the 64GB of storage. I am constantly having to manage stuff on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stratax:
Yeah true.. on my one s I have to keep my music on the low and constantly manage it but its something ive become used to so its not a deal breaker at all considering my last two phones before this (iphone 4, nokia n9) also had 16gb of ROM memory.

and the galaxy s3 isn't worth $100-200 more than the one x since it has a much worth screen with the pentile, and worse camera, annnnd I am not a fan of the glossy cheap go phone looking plastic lol.

I want to root my device. In order to do so, I've been told to select the appropriate Kernel version's file (along with odin, as recommended by many guides here), but as you can see, the Kernel version doesn't show any last three characters which are listed. (like LQ7, or LP4)

I've found a file called "Kernel_I9100BULPC_INSECURE.zip".

Should I use it because the last three characters are identical to the baseband and build number (but not kernel)?

If not, which should I use to ensure that I won't brick my phone?

Thank you, and sorry for the long question.

What's going on? Why does the Library of Congress not know what a tablet is?

If you don't know what I'm talking about, some new DMCA exemptions were passed today. Basically, Rooting (and other circumventions, ahem Jailbreaking:D) were made Legal (In the US). Wait a second, take off your party hat. It is just for phones, not tablets. The Library of congress argues that video game consoles and ereaders (Like the Kindle) could be argued as tablets, so they are trying to come up with some specific guidelines on tablets.

What matters is that Rooting or Modifing you kindle (Or iPad, or Nexus 7, etc) is Illegal, for the time being.

Sorry about this, x10knight

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zachintosh:
I would like to start off by introducing myself (and apologize if this is in the wrong section). I'm Zach :D Anyways, I have a 1st gen Kindle Fire and I think I bricked it. I got the replacement one from Amazon and promptly rooted with KFU and installed CWM instead of TWRP. I later decided I didn't like CWM and wanted to go to back to TWRP. From inside of CWM, I deleted and cleared my caches, factory reset, wiped the SD card, and then put the update.zip from Amazon onto the root of my SD card while mounted from within CWM. I flashed it, rebooted, and it is now stuck at the "Kindle Fire" splash screen. Kindle Fire Utility tells me my ADB is online, however the boot status is unknown. I have basically tried every option in KFU and nothing is working. Also, the Unbrick Utility is a piece of s**t and never works, even with ADB. Am I screwed here? I really need my Kindle because there are apps on there that I absolutely require. I really don't want to order/make a factory cable either. Someone please help.

Recovery is for flashing zip files not img. If the kernel is packed in a flashable zip it will be flashed. And with S-OFF there is no need of flashing boot.img of a ROM it is done automatically

Ifound an older backup in my files with data but Root Explorer .apk installer goes through the motions but won't install. I tried changing permission from rwxrwxr-r to rw-r-r but system won't let me change permission. I even tried Lucky Patcher just for the f__k of it and still no permission change, if that is the way to go.

Hey guys,

I'm wondering if I want to install windows 8 on my macbook pro via bootcamp. Do I need to buy this version because I heard Microsoft stopped selling retail version of windows. So, I found out that I can only order it through Amazon not through Microsoft's store. So, is that only place to buy it? kind of confused
[Windows 8 General] Rolandh:
The Microsoft web store along with other online stores & physical shops are selling Retail Windows 8. Why would you want to pay the higher rate that the OEM version costs?

Roland
[Windows 8 General] htc fan89:
Wait, I check microsoft's store and they only have window 8 upgrade version. They don't have full install version of windows 8. So, my only option is to buy from amazon the system builder version. I actually want the legit version and I'm fully aware there are torrents available on the net.... It's weird that microsoft isn't selling full retail version of windows 8.... Thanks for the reply
[Windows 8 General] Rolandh:
You could always use a torrent version of Windows 7 and a legit version of Windows 8. To the Windows 8 Upgrade it doesn't matter that you are using a Torrent version of Windows 7 as you can just tell the Installer not to save anything and jobs a good one.

How much is the OEM version of Windows 8 as an MSDN account could work out cheaper in the long run as you get a free version of Windows 8 and every new version that comes out while you are still subscribed?

Roland
[Windows 8 General] cool1007:
Is that confirmed? If I upgrade from a torrent version of Windows 7 will it work? That would be a great way of going legit. The System Builder version is not available on the Microsoft site yet :(
[Windows 8 General] htc fan89:
you can buy it from amazon it's 100 dollars for windows 8 and pro is 40 dollars more... I might check if that actually working I'm running windows 8 preview at the moment...
[Windows 8 General] Rolandh:
I've done it with my so called OEM Version of Windows 7 Ultimate that turned out to be a cloned DVD and it worked. It's just there to prove that you are eligible for the Upgrade license that's all. If you do it from a fresh Install you don't need to put any cracks on your system, and just wipe the Install with the Save Nothing option in the Windows 8 Installer, And you've got a clean Windows 8 Pro install but just with the windows.old Folder, and what you save on not having to get the OEM Version can go on some apps from the Windows Store.

[Windows 8 General] htc fan89:
So, could I upgrade to windows 8 pro from windows 8 preview?

They want u to use drive and playstore cloud, I think it comes in other size storage tho, 8gb, 16gb, 32gb and if we get lucky maybe a 64gb or 128gb version but honestly 32gb is plenty for me cuz I don't keep my whole collection of movies on my tab I just rotate em out between my storage center and my tablet and just keep a few on at a time, and music i usually stream and only keep a handful of hard to find stuff on storage.

Edit: oh yeah plus I already have 60gb for my box account and 15gb on my drive account so that right there is 75gb of cloud space on top of my internal. The nice thing about cloud storage is you can pull it to whatever device you want wherever you are.
