[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
ok thanks for that - the v0-v2 required all sorts of jumping thru hoops to get root/cwm installed....when u finished the first flash you would end up with a LNX check sum error in red text on your tab and have to boot straight to recovery and fix checksum errors (not permissions as i said earlier)

v3/v4 now comes pre-rooted with cwm 1.5, which is what may be corrupting things if you are still have the v8 bootloader - altho in saying that, a few of us have been on HC3.01 with v8 and had no probs flashing a compatible ICS v8 rom from there...maybe it was just a fluke who knows...One thing I do know is you should really have a compatible recovery with the v8 - which is why all the flash packages come pre-loaded with a custom recovery....as MD said above you need to make doubly sure your rom/reocvery/bootloader are all compatible with each other. this applies whether they be stock or custom 'whatevers'....

and you have completed all the wipes as MD suggested, including toggling /data/media erase in cwm?

I realise you may have done everything correctly, this is more for the benefit of those folk "trying" to follow along:)

this is on 3.2?? you run the EUU ok, boot to android, and run thru the setup wizard, then the next reboot goes awry??
[Acer Iconia A500] graphdarnell:
I was initially on 3.1 stock. I went to stock recovery which proceeded to erase whatever, then showed the android belly up with the triangle exclamation mark and so forth (The sd card contained no ROM at this point). I rebooted, then flashed V4 directly from inside 3.1 with debugging on. It "PASS" uneventfully, rebooted on its own to the setup wizard. Things function normally within that capsule (it showed HC 3.2 I believe). I turned it off after setup was done, then on again to experience the black SOD. I then went to Recovery 1.5, erase everything a few times, then rebooted. Same result. Eerily dead.

Then came the V8 Bootloader and Thor V20, and the tablet was resuscitated. Works fine now. :cool:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flippingout:
Anyone know how to get Instant Upload to show up as just one folder in the stock Gallery app? The stock Android Gallery app on my Xoom and Gnex just shows Instant Upload as a single folder whereas the Note 10.1 Gallery app groups each by there individual date into folders which makes a mess of the app.

If there is no solutuion, does anyone have a recommendation on a good replacement gallery app?

Thanks!
[HTC One X] DarkyHero:
Hi Guys,

Recently my screen has not been working properly. On the CM10 Nightly I was using, the screen would not display the right image, and would be slightly fuzzy. Other times, the screen would not turn on but the soft buttons at the bottom of the screen would still be working.

The solution that came to my mind was to flash back to Android Revolution HD, which had worked perfectly for me in the past. The screen fuzziness has been fixed, but unfortunately the screen no longer turns on. My phone has decided to randomly work again, but later the screen will stop working again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

DarkyHero

Yeap, it's duplicated.

Duplicated in this post

Look in the Development forum for cm10 roms with 5-touch, (5-touch is an option so you can still install the rom) first there are about 4 current roms that you can try. You will need CWM on a sd card to start.:)

Hello,

I am so angry and disappointed at the Android team, I am a huge fan of Android and I will stay that way ..

we were begging for years to the Android team to make Android more secure and I was hoping to see them do so in 4.2

instead Apple introduce an Amazing feature in iOS 6 which is privacy control where you can prevent any app from accessing you data,

WHAT THE HELL GOOGLE !

we need that feature more than they do, and I don't know for how long we will wait, I don't want to uninstall a nice game because it can access my contacts or for the "Fake" Anti virus softwares to catch these apps because of unnecessary permissions.

I am mad because I love Android, and because there are a lot of people who hate Android because they think it is full of malware .

please guys, don't tell me to install LBE or other software because if this feature is not coming from Google then its not worth it.

Thanks.
[Android General] mistermentality:
Ios users need it more as unlike android users they have less control over their system. We can see exactly what permissions are needed before installation and can always install a permissions manager so we can do that already so it makes sense for google to concentrate on improving the os overall.

But yes it would be a nice feature just not really the most important.

[Android General] dxppxd:
You mean ios users AND non-rooted android users (vast majority) need it more, right?

C'mon, google haven't implemented this yet cuz it slaps them right in the money, no personal info, no targettizing. They could improve an already impresive os with this feature, which is implemented already on some custom roms and 3rd party apps.
[Android General] mistermentality:
It could well be money minded however it could also be that if users stop specific permissions (gps, contact access etcetera) the app would fail when accessing that feature and cause people to naturally blame the os (after all not all users are tech savvy).

I agree it would be a good feature but I'm not sure there is a big need for it.

As I said we can see before installing an app and stop installation if we don't like a feature accessed by that app which ios users can't do so easily.

Never gonna happen

That said,

FINE GRAINED PRIVACY TWEAKING WILL NEVER COME TO ANDROID THOUGH UNLESS THERE IS A FORK OF ANDROID

The whole point of Android, from Google's perspective, is to get your personal info. Don't forget, Apple's customer is YOU... Google's customers are their advertisers. Don't ever expect fine grained Blackberry or iOS-style privacy controls in Android; it will never happen.

Not always an option, some devices don't have AOSP/AOKP/CM ROMs

Also pdroid is just now getting record audio blocking and still doesn't control gallery access etc.
[Android General] gagdude:
Dude nobody cares. If I ask about privacy controls to any of my friends (iOS and Android and WP7/8), they just say "what's that?" or "you're such a nerd nobody cares"

Besides, I'm just one guy in a world of 7 billion. Do you really think Google gives a f*ck about about me? Who cares if they have my info, because they can't do anything with it
[Android General] dxppxd:
No one gives a f*ck, until they give a f*ck.

Most people don't care, but for some that do care about all that personal information being broadcasted through the air, shouldn't there be an option? Remember when facebook, whatsapp and even gmail apps didn't use https to connect over wifi? Anyone with basic wifi knowledge could access ALL broadcasted information by sitting at a Starbucks. Depending on the app's permissions this was very compromising for the unsuspecting (if the app dialed home with your contact info and phone numbers, for example). But that's just one example besides the point.

The point is, would you share all that personal information with the first random person you see walking down the street? Well, if that person works for google, you might be doing so already.
[Android General] gagdude:
The main thing is, if they won't do anything with the information, I might as well tell them my SSN. It's a whole nother story if they plan on identity theft of the like
[Android General] mistermentality:
What your on about, denying apps internet access to prevent leaking data publically, is good but that still would not stop apps you give permission to from leaking data and so someone could still intercept your data.

For total security from leaked data you would need to encrypt the data before it leaves your phone ideally but because of androids nature we do at least have choices, just not built in ones.

Yes it would be a nice option but it just isn't something most people want so there is no pressure on google to create it.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] manuBzh:
Hi everyone,

I just come back from a US trip and I had a problem with my french HTC HD2. I was unable to detect any US network. My provider (free Mobile) propose roaming in US so no problem from this side. I have the Radio Rom 2.15.50.14 (exactly 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14) and the NexusHD2_JellyBean Android Rom. I have no problem in many countries in Europe but no way in USA (NY in particular) and in Canada.

Is this a Radio Rom issue? Is there any universal radio rom? Is it a question of parameters?

I will have to go again in US and I would like to find a solution.

Many thanks in advance for your help,

Manu

Stock HTC Inspire 4g. No root. It reboots 10 to 20 times a day.I can be online, playing a game, or the phone can be just setting there not being used. What can I do?
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
I think first try replacing the battery. If that doesn't work, root it and install a kernel (or rom) that will let you undervolt. If you still have the issue, you could then underclock.

Sent using the power of the dark side.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kofrad:
Couldn't undervolting make the problem worse? Though I do agree rooting and going with a new rom is a good shot at fixing the problem
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
That would depend on the cause. If it is rebooting due to overheating, undervolting/underclocking could help.

Still, batteries are pretty cheap and you will never fix a hardware problem with software.

Good luck.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ronron6665:
Have tryed 3 different batteries and always the same thing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
Then the next step would be to root so you can change the kernel. For testing, I would recommend Redemption. Redemption tools in System Settings makes it easy to undervolt and change the clock speeds.

Dear Members,

Important thing is one must have ADB drivers for his/her Android Phone and the phone must be in USB Debugging mode. Please visit: www (dot)unlockroot(dot)com. to download the simple program.The image of the website attached here.

I think this will help many people who are not much computer savvy to root the Android Phones.

[HTC EVO 3D] Gixermouse:
Hiya Evo people..

I've just bought an Evo 3D after owning a Desire HD for the last two years and I'm wondering if there's a stable rom with working 3D camera/video that strips out Sense?

I went through a lot of roms on the HD and finally settled on IceColdSandwich which I'm really happy with so ideally I'm after a 4.0.4 or above rom that I can stick Apex launcher on and get the Evo looking (and working) like my HD.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to have to go through testing different roms to find the right one..

Cheers guys

Steve.

For a newbie I would recommend using a stable ROM and not a Jelly Bean ROM - most if not all of them are in Beta/Alpha and have their fair share of bugs.

[HTC EVO 3D] ivoto88:
I using unbranded device. The device is HTCDev unlocked, HBOOT - 1.49.0018, CWM v4.0.1.4 and it is S-ON.

In order to install a custom ROM i used to wipe "data/factory reset", "cache partition", "Dalvik Cache" and "Battery Stats", then i was copying the boot.img with CMD (with "fastboot flash boot boot.img"), then put the new ROM in my formatted SD card, and install it through Revolutionary CWM.

Now, few months later, i tried to install new ROM ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1507616 ), using the same procedures, but after the installation, when i reboot the device it starts loading the boot animation and then freezes. I tried a few other ROMs and the result was the same. Even i tried to install the previous ROM ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1647674 ), which was on the phone until yesterday, the same thing happens, the animation freezes and i have to take the battery out. My question is can the problem be from the boot.img or from the method that i am using. If the problem is there, will it be useful to install the method "4EXT Recovery". Having in mind that i installed HBOOT - 1.49.0018, CWM v4.0.1.4 which way is more easier and safer.

Looks like reflashing the radios worked. AS soon as I got booted into stock, a ton of messages started coming in
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xDisso1vex:
ok, so how does one go about reflashing the radios? did you do that and follow through with the nandroiding back to stock like you said?

I'm sorry. I have an HTC Evo 4g, rooted, originally had CM7 on it when the sms issue happened. took it to my friend and he put CM9 on it to see if going to a newer ROM would help. it didn't. he stated that I would probably have to go back to stock, reinstall sms from there (?) and then go back to a rom if I wanted.

I have been googling the issue and found this: forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?p=34337380#post34337380 which had directions to unroot and go back to Froyo, then reroot and reinstall the CM7 ROM. If I don't have to go through all that I would love not to, and this thread is much newer than that one.

also: I don't think I have a copy of my original HTC Sense or whatever base setup. not sure if the guy who rooted my phone for me saved one... also, don't think I have a copy of the CM7 I had installed. I do however have a .exe of the CM9 I currently have. Honestly, I like some of the settings on CM7 more than the CM9 I have, but oh well, I guess.

Anyway, sorry to ramble. I have had this issue not receiving text messages randomly since about November 9th. I am on a Sprint Evo but it is flashed to Cricket.

Thank you for the help! I am learning a lot as I have been looking all this up, but more info would definitely help. :)

-Amber.

EDIT: Ok, updated the Radios with CM-EVO_Radio-2.15.00.12.19_PRI-2.33_WiMax_NV.zip. I did not nandroid into the stock rom though because I don't think I have it saved. I've found a few apparently-stock roms on xda but I read something else that said what looks like stock could just be another rom and not have all of the original settings refreshed. I am pretty sure that when I had CM9 put on my phone to try to fix the sms issue they did a clean wipe before they installed it, but I could be wrong.

I still have not received any of my still-missing texts. =( I can still send which makes me think it isn't necessarily that I'm flashed to cricket... any other help would be most welcome. thanks.

I went to a corporate Sprint store to buy the gn2. They would only sell the device with an activation fee. Is there anywhere else I can buy the device new without having to pay an activation fee?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Next1776:
If you are paying full price, with no contract renewal, then buy it at a third party or retailer store, the act. Fee isn't required on those type of transactions. If you are buying at a Corporate location they may not be able to bypass the Act. fee.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iwin2000:
Act. fee is what fee exactly? I bought it full price at a corporate store without contract and I paid $649.99 + tax and it came out to around $690.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrnamster:
I bought mine off Craigslist for $600 and activated it online at Sprint.com under my account. No activation fees here.

The guy has more. PM me if interested.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Unknown_Hero:
An Act. fee is an activation fee of $36.00 plus tax that you get billed on your account for upgrading or adding a new line onto your acount. This will get billed, so you don't pay for this in store. There is NO act fee when buying the phone w/o a contract so don't worry about that being carged because you are not extending any contract.

On a side note if you are extending your contract (upgrading or setting up a new line) if you are a member of a credit union bank, you can get the Sprint rep to add this discount to your account and it will waive all act fee's for any line on your account as well as give you a 10% discount off your bill every month. It takes about a month or two to apply to your account so if you do not have the discount already then the act fee will most likely be credited back to your account on the second bill you get after you upgrade.

[HTC Rezound] scy1192:
What OS are you on? If you're on XP/Vista/7, download HTC Sync and install it.

If you're on Windows 8:

1. Open the charm bar (Windows+C), click Settings, click Change PC Settings, click General, and under Advanced Startup click "Restart Now"

2. Click troubleshoot, advanced, startup settings, restart

3. Your computer will shut off and when it turns back on you'll get a blue screen with a bunch of options. Choose "7) Disable Driver Signature Enforcement"

4. Follow these instructions: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install but skip steps 2.1 and 3

Extra steps on Windows 8 are required because HTC's drivers don't work with Windows 8 and the modified drivers that do work aren't signed so Windows will refuse to install them
[HTC Rezound] hovercraftdriver:
I'm on Win 7 64bit...have tried with and without Sync using only HTC drivers. Jury seems to be out on whether sync should be used or not based on what I read. Dev site says download it, users say you only need the drivers from the package and NOT to have sync active, hence I have tried both ways.
[HTC Rezound] scy1192:
True you only need drivers, but having Sync up doesn't hurt anything. Boot up your device, go to the Developer settings and enable ADB. On your computer, cd to your adb folder and execute "adb devices" and see if it lists a device.
