[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Read woodrubes battery thread. Its stickied in this section.

Using profiles and apos such as tasker will probably be the best option for turning iff data.

Wifi uses less power btw. So if you can be connected to wifi, stay connected.

[Nokia Lumia 920] hawc1506:
If it turns out that all of the NL 920s (AT&T, Rogers, Unlocked International, Developers version, etc.) have the same hardware, would it be possible to enable certain frequencies by flashing new firmware?
[Nokia Lumia 920] McHale:
According to the Nokia tech I spoke to last week, ALL of the Lumia 920's have all the bands physically present and they disable bands via software. As typical, AT&T likes to screw over customers any way possible.

While it's physically possible to reflash and enable the correct frequencies, it is yet to be seen if we'll be able to figure it out.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] KBone25:
I have 2 very specific happenings with my Note 2.

1) At (seemingly) random intervals, my phone's screen will fade on and off displaying some sort of notification screen that I can't find anywhere. I must have hit this in some settings menu but don't know where. It has big white notifications for missed calls, emails, and texts, all of which are always 0 on the screen. Again, this screen fades in and out in under a second. I even tried a screenshot, but haven't been fast enough.

2) At one point I noticed the RETURN button from the keyboard was replaced with a smiley button. Now it's gone. How can I get it back or to stay?

Also... I love ellipses (three periods in a row). The stock keyboard auto punctuates after one period and puts a space in there which drives me crazy.

Any fixes or suggestions on any of the above things I've noticed?

Edit: Screen Just flashed at 9:30 - Maybe this happens on the half hour or quarter hours. I'll keep watch

Edit2: HAHAHAHAHA... It just did it one minute later. I've got no clue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] KBone25:
Ok, so I figured out how to activate it.

It's sensor related. I have my phone under a lamp. I move my hand over the sensors and I get this notification screen.

I don't mind it, just want to know where it is in the settings or if this is something you can/can't disable.

My guess is that its for when you take your phone out of a pocket the sensor can show you any missed notifications.

For the record, it's missed calls, missed texts, and battery level.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] KBone25:
Found my answer in the General Section for the Note 2

The feature I'm describing is the "Quick Glance"

Now... onto figuring out how to get that smiley button back instead of the return! :laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ac74ecu:
I know this is an old post but I am so glad I found this. It has been driving me nuts seeing that screen come on and go away. I tried everything to replicate it. It happened 5 times over the last 20 minutes while I was watching a movie so I googled it and found this. Anyways...thank you!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshot21:
Hey everyone, not my first time fiddling around with a phone, although my current phone is a G2X so its a lot easier to fiddle around with.

When the X10 first came out, i got it from Rogers on a 3 year contract. About 1 and a half years into it the phone wouldn't boot. Vibrated, but wouldn't boot. I got a bb as a replacement and never looked back. Well I found it a few days ago, and I'd really like to get it working. So far, ive plugged it into a charger for about 24 hours, and only got a red LED that blinked for the first 15 minutes to indicate the battery was low.

Now when I push the power button the red led blinks 3 times fast once every time i push the power button.

I'm stuck here, because I have no idea what to do with this phone. Ive gone through the forums for the past 2 hours, looking for an answer on what to do, but I couldn't find one. If someone could help point me in the right direction, that would be great! :)

-Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cartmenicus:
Take the battery out plug it in make sure that a green led is on. put the battery in and let charge :) hopefully that helps:D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshot21:
Didnt get a green led with the battery removed, and plugged into the wall.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cartmenicus:
damn.. that must happen when your on unlocked bootloadr.. have you tried a differnt battery? i really dont know:(
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshot21:
Couldnt be an unlocked bootloader. I never did anything to this phone. It was running whatever it was shipped with. I couldnt recall as its been atleast 2 + years since ive used it, and I dont have another battery to try it with. I would like to make sure it will work before I spend time looking for a battery.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cartmenicus:
It does sound like a battery problem they arent expensiveo n eaby.. like 15$
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshot21:
Just to say though, the battery does hold some kinda charge. Right now the phone is unplugged and when I push the power button I get three red LED blinks. What does that one mean?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cartmenicus:
I think that its dead as hell..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headshot21:
Alright. Well there is a store around my place that I can probably get a battery for it. I'll get it tomorrow and try charging it.
[Droid 2 General] cnoevl21:

I need to erase everything before I send it back to where I got it, but i cant get into thephone to do a reset and when i boot into recovery, the magnifying glass doesnt seem to work so i cant get past the exclamation point. Is there any other way that I could wipe this phone?

what to do when it still won't reboot?

I got this far with my d2. Thanks. After choosing the wipe and reboot option it still boots only to the moto splash screen. it dims a bit after a few seconds and that is all she wrote. I've left it there for an hour.

Any moves to make now? I'd like to get it working. I am willing to learn whatever it takes.

Thanks.

This happened after an OTA update, and now I am new to this forum, and trying to get this phone back working, Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have adb loaded, and have used it to root, su with clockworkmod a CDMA Sprint phone to put into the Page Plus service network, so I have some experience - mostly willing to try just about anything.

The battery should be charged up.

I got this once, after leaving the phone sit for about two days, battery out.

I mainly use this phone for VoIP service, but was eventually going to try to put Cyanogenmod 7 on it, and then this happened.

Any advice / help / pointers to somewhere, or something would be greatly appreciated.
[Droid 2 General] sd_shadow:

phone needs to be complete stock or update will fail

usually battery will not charge, when the code is corrupted

you can try flashing 1FF-p2a_droid2_cdma_droid2-user-2.3.3-4.5.1_57_DR2-31-110719-release-keys-signed-Verizon-US.sbf.zip with rsd lite hopefiully the battery is charged enough,

if flash fails because of low battery you will need on of the following

Thank you, and another question for the droid 2

I can't seem to get the drivers to work, I've tried about everything but booting into XP mode - not sure how to do that, as I am on a Windows Vista machine. Any advice, or process for that? I've tried it as Admin, and also a User, but no progress. The drivers are loaded through executing the msi file, but when I plug the phone in the computer doesn't detect phone, and the drivers don't show up in device manager, either.

Spare battery charger on the way!

Also, I ordered a new battery, the old one, was, well, old, and could not hold a charge long enough to get through the flashing step. Once I figured this out, I was able to flash the phone, and then perform a factory reset, and it is back to the original. It wouldn't take the flash for CM but the phone is rooted now.

Thank you for your help!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JeffATL:
Hi,

After posting my question in the thread for the rom I am on and not getting an answer I decided to try here...

I have latest version of JellyBomb Domination 7.0. Amazing rom - kudos to Josh Beach and others who helped make such a great rom.

I use Go Launcher.;

I am trying to install the voicemail widget to my home screen which displays the count of the unread voicemails. If I just create a shortcut to the voicemail app it will not display the count so it has to be a widget. Once you have the widget, you just configure GO Launcher Ex. Notification to display th count,

I reinstalled the latest version of visual voicemail. I also looked in add back zips for the rom. Nothing.

Any help would be appreciated

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Just a warning. 3ft drop to the corner of the device when you have no case on it WILL totally shatter the screen. Wife dropped it. $200 to replace the device. Sprint warranty for $11 a month is a joke. Better to get external insurance.`
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jamesey:
I sadly don't know how mine broke. Quite fragile if you ask me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jt513:
Best Buy Black Tie Insurance. That is why I don't have one yet, won't get it (or any phone) without Black Tie..And I sell phones, not for Best Buy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Worth Ave Group. Insurance has NO deductible. Like $70 (guesstimate...but it's really cheap) a year for a $700 policy.

Call them. I have my wife's DSLR insured through them $2500 for $205 bucks a year. Theft is included as well as damage. Stupidly, I had not renewed and added this phone to her policy yet this year as it just expired like 3 weeks ago...and I was going to add her phone and cancel Sprint rip off $11 a month fee.

I'm an idiot for not doing it immediately.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] PsycloneTW:
This. Have used Black Tie for many things, including a cracked screen, have never paid more than the $10/month to cover the insurance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 00mred00:
Buy a case for the replacement yet? ;)

I know I would rather pay $200 than shell out $650 for a brand new one. I keep the Sprint insurance for the lost/stoled coverage and the in store repairs.

Sucks to hear that it had such a short life :(

Has anyone found diy screen replacements yet?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] walord:
A short drop even on concrete is not guaranteed to cause the screen to shatter. In most instances you'll just get minor cosmetic damage to the case, tough break though...

Now all this insurance talk is pretty interesting. Sprint charged you $200 to replace a phone under warranty? That sucks. Any better options for those of us who purchased through Sprint?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 48548:
I was looking at squaretrade for 125 for 2 years, and I am thinking 100 deductable. I am curious if best buy will let you buy it after the fact that you got it at sprint?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jt513:
Best Buy handles the IPhone differently but..As for Android:

You should only buy Best Buy insurance IF you purchase the phone with Best Buy.

Once you buy the phone from Best Buy you have 30 days to add insurance for $10/mo. There is NEVER a deductible. Most phones are on "rapid replacement" meaning that they give you a loaner until your new or newly refurbished comes in in 2-3 days max. They cover water damage, physical damage and even bricked phones from rooting and screwing them up. The ONLY thing they don't cover is lost or stolen.

IMO, I would return the phones to Sprint and grab it from Best Buy. I would have done that myself except I have a Buy Back on my GS2 for ~$220. If you get it from best buy, you can STILL get Sprint's Insurance. While traveling just after getting my GS2 I kept both insurances for about 2 months encase my phone was lost or stolen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Yep.

http://www.worthavegroup.com/

Way better.

Cell Phone Insurance

2 Years Coverage

Serial Number: XXXXXXXXXXX

Coverage Amount: $599.00

Deductible Amount: $50.00

Price:

$118.00

-$5.90

$112.10 (2 years)

Processing Fee: $5.00

Total: $117.10 (2 years!)

Vs. $200 deductible and $11 per month for Sprint which is $264 (two years).

Sprint= $464 to get back a $300 valued through them phone. I called, you do NOT own the phone after this, and I do not know if I can just cancel the Sprint insurance after using it either.

vs.

Worthave= $167 and they give you $600 back.

I could feasibly run the Worth ave for $600 and if I kept Sprint's insurance pay $200 to replace the phone and keep the remaining $400. unless I have to turn the phone in to Worth Ave group. Then that wouldn't work because I know that Sprint wants the phone when it is being replaced.

But if I had to choose one over the other...Sprint for $464 (over 2 years and plus the $200 deductible) to NOT own the phone...vs...WorthAve at $167 (for a full two years) and I get $600 towards owning the phone which I think costs $700 right now.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Woooow Worth Ave insurance is amazing.

I just called Worth Ave. If My wife takes 1 single online course. They will give her a college bundle discount with a $25 dollar deductible for up to 4K of insurance!!!!

For...drum rolllllllll

$110 a year. She just has to be enrolled first. Unreal. Best deal EVER.

Oh...and after the course is done...we can keep the bundle package as long as we don't let it lapse year to year after that.

4K of insurance (laptop, phone, camera, lens) accidental damage, or theft...for $110 a year.

Done deal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 48548:
That looks better than square trade as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
How does being under warranty have any bearing on accidental damage? That makes no sense.

And square trade has 40% off if you like them on facebook right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkendvoid88:
Yeah manufacturers warranty only covers defects to the device not damage caused by a consumer. On a side note about dropping, it either slid off my bed or was something in my pocket, but I some how managed to puncture the bezel right above the s-pen. Perfect hole in the bezel but luckily no screen damage. :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
I put on an invisible shield type protector on the screen. Figured the sheer size of the screen would lend itself to possible damage. The extra tackiness of the protector isn't an issue, and the drag on the pen feels nice. Every little bit helps. It's one of those soapy water type protectors, fyi.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkendvoid88:
I refuse to apply any zagg protectors to any customers phones >.< Things are such a pain in my butt.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbpaddler:
I actually throw a bunch on at one shot. One on the GN2, S3 and my Cowon S9. It's a touch more fuss than a normal protector, and if it's cut well, lasts a lot longer and is more protective. It's only hard if you skimp on the water.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Final post in here guys for me.

Check out the WorthAve thread. I just put the whole final story in there. You don't have to be in college or enrolled in ANY online class to get their insurance.... 2k worth with a $25 dollar deductible for like $67 dollars a year (using that 15off promo code I found and purchasing online).

Someone actually accused me for working for them. Even though I have been at XDA for over 2 years and have over 600 posts. lol. Whatever. Check out my thread over there...decide for yourself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ls3mach:
I dropped and shattered my screen last night too. EXTREMELY fragile. I haven't even had this phone 12 hours. Sad panda, that's what I am. Does Sprint fix screens? I have TEP, but just had to file a claim on my Evo LTE, so I will get dropped if I file another.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZenInsight:
Called to see if they would replace my screen first...no go. That sucks man. I would say to file the claim, lose your insurance, then get WorthAve insurance in case anything happens again.

And buy a case!!! That was my mistake.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matada:
Is there a way to force CyanogenMod (or even the stock rom) to stay at HSPA? My phone has issues going from 3G to HSPA and staying there (happens regardless of rom). Is there a way to make it stick on HSPA? I'm not too worried about the battery life, it's already pretty abysmal.

Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
I don't know if there is. The reason it does that is to keep unnecessary bandwidth from being used by the phone. It's a quick switch.

Edit: there is the old method of dialing *#*#4636#*#* and selecting wcdma only, but I think it still switches between 3G/4G
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
There is no way, it's dependent on cellular carrier and not on the phone AFAIK.

The question is - why would you want to? What are the "issues" you're seeing?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matada:
my phone is refusing to go up to 4g (HSPA) in a reasonable amount of time. It takes on average 45-60 seconds for it to move up. It's done that no matter which rom I use and it's annoying as pages won't load until it goes to HSPA
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Bad. OK, as a very harsh and bad semi-solution you could run a ping once in 5 sec, that would keep your phone's data connection constantly active. But it's no good solution.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] silentjet:
Hi.

I like razr and want jb on it. So im look here and found almost nothing. Most of builds are not actually jb, but ics. Hate this concept, cause it missing almost all improvements that was implemented in jb. So i start my own build. Of course im facing up numbers of issues, but main of it - graphics that builds from sources- almost done. I get working ui but with incorrect resolution(actually resolution is correct, but buffer should be downscaled to 540x960 and this does not happens). Also there are issues with audio but it does not looks like difficult to fix it. So my primary target is to get razr working without any parts of ics in heart(except of blobs). That lead us to easy bringing up of coming 4.2 on our lovely device. So i'm looking for advices as for graphics issues and also as for secure (primary) sdcard mounting.

Of course success result will be available in public and will be adopted for all most popular builds like cm and aokp.
