i'm having the same problem. i used the transfer my data app to transfer my contacts from my iphone 4s to my lumia 920. now all my contacts are gone. i can still see the name and numbers of people that i have called or called me. but when i tap on my phone book to see who is in it no one is there. it's asking me to set up an account. i'm really starting to get pissed off with windows phone. maybe i should return my windows phone and give my money to apple. their **** just seems to work with no problem. how the hell can i have windows contacts on my computer but it won't sync to my windows phone without first transferring to outlook? i don't use outlook. i hate outlook. maybe this is why ms is so far behind ios and android. it sucks!!

Lost contact, suddenly on windows cloud

I have the same problem several days ago: the numbers of many persons I intended to call suddenly disappeared, on all of my lumia 920, desktop outlook, and People on web. The losses seemed to happen when I was editing one contact on Outlook. When I just saved the changed contact, it disappeared. Later, I start finding lots of contacts lost. This really bothers me now.

Guys I have the same ****** problem now...DID u guys find a solution for it?Plz help

I switched my sim card from my lumia 520 to new android today.Then,I tried syncing my hotmail on android but there were no contacts.I took my lumia and saw that the contacts were missing in that too...I tried checking the connected accounts:1 hotmail and 2 Google accounts.The hotmail account is showing synced but the Google accounts are still showing 'syncing'.I tried everything but still continues..My suspect was mayb the contacts were being synced to the Google accounts but got interrupted.so the contacts are neither on my phone nor hotmail nor the Google accounts.help me out guys...PLZ...I hav very important contacts and need them
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxdy:
go to https://people.live.com/

and if contacts there, export to CSV file...

go to Google https://www.google.com/contacts/u/0/?cplus=0#contacts and import contacts there...

also if contacts on phone use official Microsoft https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/apps/contacts-message-backup/9nblgggz57gm to export contacts to SD card

[HTC One X] JuanArg:
Here's the story:

I bought my HOX (Indian, International, SH24 batch) close to 6 months ago (continue reading before saying it won't be replaced). I checked and tested everything according to the guide as soon as I could and it only showed a little bit of screen flex on the upper left corner, but I didn't say anything because I could live with that (I'm not that picky). Then, after some time I found out that the back of the device had a small bump near the camera lens, and by looking it up on xda I found out that it might be the battery expanding and we all know what could follow to that. Recently, I found that the screen has two vertical lines that are noticeable on grey backgrounds. These lines are not dead or burnt pixels, it seems as if the backlight was uneven and those lines were a lighter color than the rest of the screen.

Now, here is where I start to wonder the topic title.

If they were to repair it and assuming that that's the only damage and no other parts are involved, they would need to replace at least the back cover, the screen and the battery. Considering the only part that seems to be perfect is the motherboard, and that the rest needs replacement, is it possible to get a replacement unit instead of going through the whole hassle and wait of getting the repair done?

Hi,

Sorry for my question but can i know the best custom rom for my galaxy tab 2 7.0,please???

My model is GT-P3110 with android 4.0.3 stock P3110XXALD4.

Thank's
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] :
The best custom rom is the one that works best for you. What are you looking for ? ICS / JB / Hybrid ?? They are all available here, and they are all just a bit different from each other based on the developers choices and flair.

I've flashed them all, and whereas one may fit my needs better than another - it does not make the other a bad rom, just not my choice.

With respect to the time and effort of all the developers here - they are all the best, choose the one that you like best

Good luck and happy flashing !!!

Regards,

:good:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] alxrock:
This question is FORBIDDEN! lol

No one can really say which is best. Just check out each ROM's thread and see what they have to offer and try them out. You never know which one is best (for you) until you've tried them out yourself.

I've tried out a few different ROMs and have switched between them quite a bit.

For example:

If you're into the look of pure Android (AOSP):

AOKP is very popular, full of customization, so if you're looking to tweak every little thing, it might be great for you.

CyanogenMod is super popular, has a good amount of customization, but not as much as AOKP

Paranoid Android is great too, especially if you want options to switch between Phablet, Tablet and Phone UI

If you like Samsung's stock look and feel (TouchWiz), but just want to debloat then something like Tab2lite is a good way to go.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] prince147:
This is the development thread! Post questions in the q/a thread only!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Nurra:
Anybody on xda should know by now that nobody will tell you that. Even if the amount of time and key pressed telling you to search for yourself is actually no less than to just tell you a recommendation. I'm using the aokp rom right at about the top of Page 1.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] eugenechiuu:
AOKP Milestone 1 is pretty good, amazing battery life.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] scottx .:
Cm9/10 are both super stable. Aokp is like cm10 but its got more customization and overclocking built in.

To each his own, try them all and pick one.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] piero79:
hello,

I'm looking for the custom rom that works better than the other and that is most current.

Milestone 1 - Calls not working bluetooth (P3100)

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Archer:
First of all, the Development forums throughout the site are for development releases, not questions. Q&A forums are the correct place for all questions.

Secondly, as explained above there is no "best rom". Try several and see what suits you best. You can easily spend time reading what has already been written about them and make educated decisions from that.

I brought one, formatted it to fat32 and created a partition of 2gb also fat32 using minitool partition so I can use link2sd, but my phone keeps randomly rebooting and apps are force closing, not all the time, but alot of the time, i never had the problem yesterday while using the 32gb sd.

Not sure if i can solve this and is this usual for the 64gb
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
my phone still keeps rebooting after testing for a few days, at first it's fine but as i gradually try and fill it up to about 21GB now the phone just constantly reboots with force closes and widgets not loading so im assuming 64gb isnt really that compatable, might be worth going back to the 32GB? sd
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
I have 64gb and have had it for months formatted it to fat 32 via windows I haven't made a second partition though aparantly 1gb is supposed to br max? And are you sure its a real when ever I buy asdcard I always use a program that tests it capacity :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
Thanks for you're reply, I brought it from amazon directly not a third party, i doubt they would rip me off, i have formatted through the computer and phone using fat32, but i haven't tried it without partitioning it, maybe that could be the problem?

I was able to partition the 32GB to 2GB without any problems but as it's a bigger card it could cause problems, will test it out

How would i test to see if it's real and what would the results show?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
I bought mine from amazon also and I used a programe on my computer that i downloaded can't remember what is called but I remember there being a few it took like a hour to test though but I honestl don't know what's up with it you could try not partitioning it for awhile :/ but I have nearly used all the space on my card and experience no problems got about 5 gig left there's also sd tools on the play store or you could try wiping the card completely and starting from scratch :/
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
I have wiped it and starting from scratch using a 961mb partition just under 1GB as i read it can cause problems hopefully that will sort it if not i will try last resort with no partition, do you have the problem with low internal memory with not having a partition, that's only reason why i chose to do this on my 32GB as i had about 8GB left but i wasnt able to use it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
Nah I don't realy need it I havr 110 mb free and that's with wildblood 52 mb orderandchaos 23mb gangter rio 14mb dolphin browser 14mb and that's the big ones I have loads of games 68 on my play and 200 apps alltogether I do want a second partition but don't have a computer atm does using the second partion makes games run slower and can you move the data aswell as app? And can you movedalvik to sexond partition?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
I dont notice any difference in games slowing down just the same, it doesn't move all data it just uses the app but where as usually you have the app installed on your internal and the data of the game goes to you're sd, you can have both on your sd, keeps all your space, well thats how it worked on my 32GB with 2GB partition but maybe the 64GB causes problems with bigger partition doing that, i'm not sure about the dalvik catche.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
No luck, woke up this morning picked up my phone and bang froze, twice rebooted and force close apps everywhere with my home screen widgets not loading, trying now without partition, last resort, otherwise im back to 32GB :(

after my conclusion i am still having reboots, trying back the 32gb if it still occurs then it's more serious then i thought.

i have also flashed stock firmwire just to see if that was causing it
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solar.Plexus:
Weird. I really don't think I've heard of one of these SD cards acting like that for the Play. SanDisk is normally pretty reliable in general, too.

If interested, I'd trade you a Samsung Class 10 that works great in my Play and has pretty good random read/write speeds as well. Although you'd be better off returning yours for the cash.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
I will keep it and use it in something else, if it's not faulty, I don't understand it either I did research and seems to work with everyone else.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tezlewis1988:
I don't mean to be rude or ignarant but how do you use app2sd as i am having no lucky with link2sdor any other low internal storage, i keep wanting to go to my 64gb as 32 wouldnt be enough, i love my games and want a phone full :(

DON'T INSTALL CHAINFIRE 3D ON JELLY BEAN ROMS. IT WILL MESS UP YOUR PHONE, YOU'LL HAVE TO REINSTALL!!!

Chainfire works 100% only on Gingerbread ROMs, it's problematic on ICS and it simply doesn't work on JB. Moreover, it WILL f**k up your phone.

Chainfire said that he may update it at some point or maybe not. It was months ago, silence since then. Since he's now an Android Superstar simple yes or no is too much to expect.

Hi,

does anyone else dislike the notification about turning on/off Beats Audio every time you plug a pair of headphones?

In the HOX I could just disable an application called HtcBeatsNotify and that would get rid of it for good

but that's not the case with the new HOX+ , the application is no longer there and the notification seems to be coing from Android System.

Does any one have any advice other than "live with it" on how to disable annoying notifications like this one?

Thank you in advance

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonieryan:
Currently CM9 on my wife's Captivate but it's messed up right now and I figure I might as well upgrade it to JB now. Which ROM is best between these 3 options:

CM10

HellyBean

SlimBean

Anyone using CM10 or SlimBean: do you feel any lag due to the lack of /datadata?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradddo:
From what I gather they are all fairly equal, but it seems slightly different for everyone. Flash one and try it.

I have been on slim for awhile. Love it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1batt1:
I could be very wrong but to my understanding the roms you've listed have all transitioned to the same partition layout and should all include the datadata partition. With that being said I have never used CM10 so I can't tell you much about it. Of the other two I would have to choose Hellybean. Its not that I don't like Slim as I've used it quite often and check out their new works often. It's just that Helly seems to give the best balance of features and stability plus I think my phone runs a little smoother with the devil kernel.

As always your experiences will likely vary and it's all a matter of how your cappy runs and what settings you use.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] momogee:
I've tried only a few different roms from 2.3 to 4.1.2 and Slim Bean 4.1.2 thus far is what i have found to be the best. Well, technically 4.1 as I just put on 4.1.2 yesterday. So far, no major problems.

My experiences is that 4.1 stayed smooth and fast and EVERY other rom eventually slowed down or started slow. Hellybean, Dark Knight, Fasty, Firefly (2nd favorite). I forget what else I've tried, but I would vouch for Slim Bean as being awesome. Only problem i've had is a few random shut downs which is a known bug. Other than that, good battery life, no reception issues, very little lag.

Hellybean, it was snappy at the start but eventually got laggy. I was sad cause i thought I liked it. Took me forever to try to call someone eventually.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaKaShiHp:
+1 for Slimbean,very smooth and fast :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbleach:
I haven't been on SlimBean since shortly after the move to JB but I do remember it being a good rom. I have been on Helly (Salty Bean actually) for quite a while now and prefer the better balance of features and stability. It really is up to each individual though. I definitely recommend trying them all out. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkaid14:
so basically what is the difference of slim bean to cm10.1? and all of you saying stability.. did your phone hangs, or shutdown? been using cm10.1 for a month now no problem so far for me..

They're all stable if flashed correctly. The difference is in the user as it's up to personnal preference.

Hello, I would like to ask a question regarding the Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread OTA update. Before I update my new HTC Desire S to Android 4.0 via RUU, I would like to update my phone to 2.3.5 first. I have done a bit of installation of apps and contacts, and I am scared that the OTA update will wipe my phone. Will the OTA update wipe my phone? I know that when installing RUUs, the phone will be completely wiped, but I am not sure with OTAs, because I've never done a OTA update before.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
No

And a friendly suggestion: if you want ICS better S-OFF and use a custom ROM rather the buggy ICS RUU. This will keep the option to return to a warranty state if needed

Ok guys, I know that the audio recording is bad with the poor microphones inside the smartphone, but things go worse with an external mic.

I purchased high quality linear measurement and recording mic - Edutige EIM-003

When I started to record I was blown away with the crystal clear and 100% true audio recordings, but the bass was blown away. It records only mids and highs ?!?!?! :confused: Than I tried several other apps for video recordings, even lossless audio recorders. Nothing improved. So I went into pure CM10 Android 4.1.2 and again it was so bad... :crying:

Can you guys help ? :fingers-crossed:

I'm using an iRig MIC Cast with a Note I, and it's a huge improvement over the internal mic.

http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigmiccast/

They don't mention Android on their website (only iOS stuff) but it works just fine with my GN1.
[Galaxy Note II General] con_ritmo:
1st off that eim003 is NOT a "high-quality linear measurement mic". high-quality linear measurement mics like those from dpa cost thousands of euros/dollars....heck any decent microphone costs $$$. and this microphone claims to do that for 35 euros?

secondly whenever you see beautiful ultra smooth frequency response graphs....those are just artistic lies. so dont believe any of it. real resonse graphs are really jaggy.

third ...the type of microphone it is....an omni...doesnt hype up the bass in any way. so if the source isnt bassy the recording wont be bassy. typical (non omni) vocal mics have something called proximity effect...iow the closer you hold the mic to the source...the bassier it gets. omni mics do not do this.

fourth it could be that the analog input on the phone is cutting the bass frequencies...because most of the time external mics on phones are meant to record the spoken voice...which shouldnt have bassy frequencies.

fifth it could just be that the speakers youre listening on are bass deficient and coupled with reason #3...well...

keep in mind most pop recordings add in the bass artificially.

sixth...I dont know if the n2 or s3 supports usb mics but that may be a path to try out...because it would bypass the audio path on the phone...and already hit the phone in digital.

hope this sheds some light...
[Galaxy Note II General] TMaLuST:
What do you record with it?

I'm in need of record our band songs and with normal note 2 mic I have a good quality but some distortion on highs (actually battery snare and my singer's voice :/)
[Galaxy Note II General] Tuffcheez:
Muwhahahaha! :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II General] con_ritmo:
distortion = too much gain (this) or overloading the mic capsule (less likely). look for recording software with adjustable gain level. or just move the phone farther away and/or tell the drummer to play softer. (ha!)
[Galaxy Note II General] TMaLuST:
Yup I know, I tried with other apps but none of them record bass frequencies like the stock app and recuding the gain removes the "color" of the music :p

Both of the suggestions you gave, sadly, aren't obtainable :p
[Galaxy Note II General] con_ritmo:
as long as you get a clean recording you could add "color" later. even full blown $$$$$$$ mixes don't have that "sound" until they go to mastering (well most of the time). But really it sounds like what you need is multitrack capabilities in a small portable format. Best to invest in something like that instead of trying to make the shoe fit. If would be the next step down the path if you're serious about your music. .. which is sounds like you are.
[Galaxy Note II General] TMaLuST:
Well I'm just trying to get the best sound without having to spend too much money :p
