[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rsol0328:
I Think i had a bad cable that i used to connect to the pc and then i had the bad battery drain. Rebooted and charged with a good cable and the gs3 is sleeping like a baby over 2 hours off the charger and still at 100% with a couple of text messages. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdelano:
These phones are very particular when it comes to the cable being used with it.

I had thought it was more so dealing with data, obviously that isn't the case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
That wakelock is related to UMS so that could be why. Make sure you have MTP or PTP selected
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jdelano:
Yep I have MTP selected.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cocchiararo:
Was anyone able to fix this ?

I get it EACH and every freaking time i plug my phone to my home pc...

I use the original cable. It randomly happens on my work pc too (but maybe its when i carry it from home...), there, i use a cable from a motorola defy.

Both pcs with windows 8.

ps: i have MTP selected. What is UMS ? I also have usb debuging enabled

EDIT: if i reboot my phone while connected to my pc, all is fine, but i have to reboot it every day that way
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gregs1112:
Hi guys,

In my case it was easy.

I've tried everything.

Service need to change the resistance behind the power socket on the motherboard.

And now I don't have to reboot all the time. The battery can go into deep sleep.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] navcar:
Thanks. I was able to replace the usb port board on a similar phone (S4), which due to water damage was also having the same msm_otg wakelock issue. Fixed!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petrostr:
I have Samsung Galaxy SII, is rooted and also I am using custom ROM (Resurrection Remix) and Titanium backup (not Pro version).

Every time I install a new version of custom rom, I have to configure again system settings (live wallpaper, shortcuts and witgets on screen, configure phone book and sms-mms settings, ringtone song, etc).

How can I save system settings??? So when I install a new version of custom rom and then Play Store automatically download and install all previous applications, to restore system settings.

Thanks!

Yes they will, that's why he suggested them. It uses the Qi standard, so anything that uses Qi will work with the N4, and both the Palm and the Nokia use Qi.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] bananaboat23:
I'm trying to find some old messages (early 2011) on my original Optimus -- might actually be the Optimus S -- and I only have Titanium Backup files copied to my computer.

Is there any way to pull SMS messages (to be read on the computer -- not to be restored to the phone) from these files? Example files include:

"com.android.mms-20110814-232219.tar"

"com.android.mms-20110814-232219.properties"

etc.

It was a complete backup using TitaniumBackup, so everything should be there.

Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bananaboat23:
If this needs to be in another forum, please let me know.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bananaboat23:
Alright. This is in the proper forum now. Does anybody know if this is possible?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mrcorey:
Uncompressed the file and you should be able to parse it with a text editor using the search function
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bananaboat23:
But what file has the SMS messages in it? I had the entire phone backed up using TBUP, so it should be there -- I just don't know which one it is.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mrcorey:
You should have an XML file on the root of your SD card that looks like this if you backed up SMS:

messages-20121101-223142.XML

So, measages-<date >-<some unique number>.xml
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bananaboat23:
This is from an old phone and I have the old TBUP files on my computer. I also have a save of the SD card, but there's no messages XML file anywhere.

Market unlocker.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScaryBugThing:
Thanks for the suggestions. Re: Market Unlocker - I initially tried that, but the pre-included options only were for a few select countries, and none of the worked. I looked up some Japanese carriers' IDs and tried entering them, and that didn't work either. Not sure if there is a guide for this sort of thing, but I don't know how I could have messed up.

For the other suggestions: IMEI editing is beyond my expertise, and seems very serious in terms of hacking--does the Nexus 7 even have an IMEI as a non-cellular device?

I'm not sure how to set up a VPN on Android.

(Sorry if I sound like a beginner--in fact, I regularly root/customize my phones. But this process has all sorts of things I've never done before.)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samho:
Currently I'm using Google Play via OpenVPN option (with Japan IP), without root (on Nexus 7)

While it will unlock those region locked content for you, you are still going to encounter problem when purchasing goodies off Japan (region) only stuff, and which, is a much bigger issue IMO. I have yet to figure out how to get the Google Checkout/Wallet accepting my non-Japan credit / debit card. So basically you are going to have trouble on anything which isn't free (well sometimes even ¥0 JPY stuff, which is free IMO).

Hey there!

As most of the XDA-readers have heard of before, there is a high amount of developers (e.g. from the mighty CM team) ditching samsung devices (S3, Note etc) because of the still missing sources.

As the Nexus 10 is using an 1,7GHz Dual-Core Exynos 5250-Prozessor with ARM Cortex-A15 (and as I´m standing pretty near to the noob community when it comes down to such a topic;)), I´m wondering if this device will ever get a "respectful" developer support, as it is normally extected with nexus devices.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unlawful:
That's not necessarily true, for example the Nexus 7 doesn't have full documentation for the Tegra 3 chip.

I was just wondering what steps I need to take in order to install an updated version of my rom. Currently I use the aokp jb version 4. Want to update to the new milestone. Can someone help me out with the procedure? Will I lose any data?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
. First thing you should do is a nand backup in recovery (so you have something to go back to if all else fails)

. backup your SD card

. move your nand backup and sd card backup to your computer (that way if your sd gets corrupted you can reformat and push your backups to your device)

. you can also backup your apps + data with something like titanium backup (although now at least in JB if you have chosen this option Google will restore your apps, does not always work for me though so beware)

! Note that Tibu is quite controversial some people love it and swear by it and some people claim that it creates lots of issues, if you decide to use it, only use it to backup/restore user apps and not system apps. I personally use the pro version since it can sync backups to my Box and Dropbox account.

in addition to all of this I backup my sms, call log and custom launcher settings (but that's just me i'm a bit paranoid and I love redundancy)

When you're staying with the same rom you typically don't have to factory reset/clean install (unless of course the dev recommends it), just wipe cache and dalvik in recovery and flash your new rom.zip (don't forget to fastboot flash the boot.img if you're on the latest hboot) in recovery.

If you do not factory reset/clean install you will not loose data (:fingers-crossed:). if you start encountering a lot of weirdness after a dirty flash well you will have to factory reset/clean install. I like to clean install most of the time so that I don't have to try to troubleshoot a bunch of stuff when s**T goes wrong plus it's easier to get support for obvious reasons.

In this particular case Milestone release of AOKP (milestone is a "stable" release and this is the first one) I would ABSOLUTELY do a clean install and I believe Rohan requires it because of kernel changes and the likes.

Hope all this makes sense and I did not forget anything. :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dan798:
Sounds excellent!! Yes this helps a ton, I was not sure of what I needed to wipe if anything. Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
no problem..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RC196:
Could you define a clean install and the steps?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Clean install: The partitions are empty

Proper steps

Wipe System

Factory Reset

Wipe Cache (Optional, Factory reset should have done it already)

Wipe Dalvik Cache (optional, I usually dont wipe and problems dont occur)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
1.boot into recovery (twrp)

2. go into wipe menu and hit factory reset (DO NOT FACTORY RESET in FASTBOOT) this will wipe everything so backup first (see above post

3. flash the boot.img taken from your rom.zip of choice (this is if you are on latest version of HBOOT)

4. flash your rom.zip

5. reboot in system
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RC196:
Before I did any flashing, I made a backup of my phone of the latest HTC Sense. It was only unlocked and not rooted. That back up is still there. If I wanted I could wipe and restore this backup correct? I would not have to flash anything right?

ODIN Installation (detailed)

- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!

- Unzip the attached Odin3-vX.X.zip file

- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)

- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one

- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer

- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe

- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5

- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)

- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer

- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked

- Click the Start button

- Wait for Android to boot

- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)

- NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, pull the battery, and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.

New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN ;)) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it. Notice the 30 second comment above? For experienced users, the entire process indeed takes only 30 seconds!

You may now optionally want to install and run Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.
