[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cyrene:
I may be of the minority, but I have had VERY FEW issues with my phone. It has worked well from the beginning and all but one issue has been resolved (contacts lagging, but not as bad for me as some report). I am not rooted and don't ever plan to be. I use Nova Launcher Prime, which took care for Sense reloads, and Chomp for texting as it syncs Facebook avitars for free. I absolutely love this phone. Good luck to you with yours!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StrummingLevi:
Thanks for all of the advice guys I really appreciate it.

evo401:

I'm going to give sense a try for a day or two and then probably root and try some roms. I've read that the sense camera app is awesome and am curious as to how valid that is. Any knowledge?

digiblur:

When I first turned on the phone it updated some things including the prl. How exactly would I go about making sure I get all of the correct radio pieces?

digiblur:

Glad to hear a positive review of the phone. I'm definitely gonna take a look at some of those apps you posted.​

I keep reading about how terrible the multitasking is. I guess I'll get a feel for that and battery life in my first go around today. I'm hoping this goes well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
All the firmware pieces come with the OTA updates that download and get applied at reboot.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] midmadn:
Root and MeanRom for sure. IMHO.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
thats what im saying bro.. mean rom is were its at! :good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scataldo721:
Personally I'm a huge fan of flex's Rom stock with goodies its so smooth
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
If you're familiar with android at all you'll immediately see how broke the multitasking is. But AOSP ROMs fix that. I've read zeppelinroxs mod fixes it for sense. I'm starting its the s4 processor, cuz all I use is AOSP, and when I relaunch root explorer from recent button, root explorer always start from base level, not last open level.

hurled from my AOKP'd Evo LTE. Enjoy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StrummingLevi:
Thanks Digilbur for that info. I was actually having all sorts of trouble with data speeds for the past few days so I was starting to worry that the radio was gonna be a problem, but turns out I was worrying for nothing because sprint was having an unusual outage in my area. He said it would be fixed on the 26th so hopefully everything will be running smooth by then. I went ahead and took the OTA I received, prior to knowing about the outage, hoping it would fix my radios.

Coming from my last phone where I had to squeeze every last drop of battery life out of it, I'm loving how much longer this one lasts. I rarely played games on my OG because my phone would die, now I can spend a bunch of time playing 9 innings baseball 2013 (GO A'S!).

Anyway when I do root, which will likely be soon, I will have to try Mean rom, Flex rom, and CM10. I have been partial to AOSP roms because I like to use go launcher ex anyway, but never really liked cyanogen mod due to too some problems that are probably fixed. My main thing is without question battery life followed by functionality (everything working or working better than in stock). I'm hoping to have the multitasking fixed for sure and I'm still curious as to if there is any truth to the camera app or camera itself functioning better in sense?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Sense uses image sense with is basically post (denoise, color correction) but the camera is still leaps and bounds ahead of aosp camera in terms of functionality. The libs are supposed to have been ported but the chromatic aberration is terrible in aosp
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] celticking:
Fleck's stock with goodies is a good ROM. Basically stock with a few features like quick toggles added. True multitasking as well but I haven't used it awhile. Cm10 is always nice.

Hey has anyone else noticed that when a ad card is inserted and you close the flap that it doesn't close properly like when there isnt a card? Its maybe nothing but little things like this really bother me lol
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batwingnz:
Yup, its very minor but just enough to give the flap a curve and springiness - thought it was the sim card because I cut full sized sim myself with bluntish scissors. Took SD card out just now to confirm and it does stop the flap closing completely... might back up the card then trim it ;)
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandean1989:
Yeah it is very minor but I'm a detail freak and it was driving me nuts at least if I know its normal and not just me thats fine! Yeah I was up for ages taking in and out the sim and trying different sd cards thinking id put it in wrong. Poor design testing :( other than that cannot fault the device as of yet

Hell of an upgrade to my desire S!

But yeah it needs a trim I didnt think of that al though I think you should try it and report back if it works before I completely **** my phone up !
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batwingnz:
I don't have a spare sd card right now, when I get home I'll test it on an old one
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandean1989:

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] up4fun2day:
my micro sim fits in fine did you use the sim eject tool to push it in as I had your problem before as hadn't pushed all the way in but it still worked and read SD card for some reason.

Hope this helps
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batwingnz:
You mentioned sim and sd card, just to clarify its sd card and distortion is less than a millimetre.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] up4fun2day:
I mentioned the 'Sim eject tool' to use to insert the SD card..... I was not talking about the actual sim card just the tool provided.

Hope this helps clarify things for you if your comment was in responce to mine :0)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xperia Player:
Friend gave me a new S2 today, never been turned on or activated. Didn't ask any questions.

So my question is, should I unlock it? Is unlocking it free?

Whats the easiest method to root the phone with?

What kernel & rom would you suggest using?

P.S. I'm not going to be using this as a 'phone' I'll be using it more for entertainment purposes like gaming and videos & such, looking for a rom with the most amount of free ram & internal memory available.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
You can unlock it with helroz's app called galaxy_s unlock on the play store, but before you use it backup your efs folder.

For the rom and kernel i think is the best check my sig ;)

Any questions don't hesitate to ask. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xperia Player:
Do i have to back up the files you're talking about? I've yet to turn the phone on yet so everything is brand new. And the rom is called rootbox, and the kernel is dorimanx 7.10 correct?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
All your questions have already been asked and answered use browse and search.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] postfatal:
Maybe you should have asked some of these "big questions" when your friend randomely gave you a brand new £500 phone.

Here, this is what I'd do. Carefully remove the back cover of the phone, making sure not to bend or snap the plastic, then place the phone screen down on a soft surface (such as a mousemat). Proceed to take the battery out without damaging the dock connectors and place it down next to the phone. Now this is the tricky part. Look for a micro sd card stored secretively in a hidden compartment below the SIM card storage and behind the battery. Upon reading it, if it contains the real name, location and corresponding code name of hundreds of undercover secret agents in the field I suggest you give the phone back to your friend... no questions asked.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinchenson:
Hi everyone, first of all, i apologise for my bad english.

Yesterday i finnally got my N4. It is the first time I have an android device, plus i am having issues with it, it is all more difficult. Here is the thing:

When you start your device at first, you are supposed to follow some first steps, i skipped the part of the sim (I still need to cut it), i entered my wifi, and when it Comes to enter your Google account, it gives me an error that pretty scares me: it says something like "a reliable connection to the server cannot be established, it is possible that this is about a temporal error or that the android device isnt prepared to data services, If the problem persists, call the customer service"

After that, my device doesnt sync for gmail, chrome, everything else, i cannot acces play store due to an error it gives me, i also cannot surf the net, use any application that requires internet (all of them :S?)

Ive tried everything I think its in my hand before posting. Rebooting, logging out reboot and logging in again, erasing all (the big default reset), etc, and it doesnt get solved ;(

I would appreciate a lot if you could point me in the right direction, but i think the device is broken somehow, and i"ll have to send it to be repaired :S

Thank you in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenixjr:
are you sure it is connected to your wifi? check in the settings/about phone/status to see if you have an IP address

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaar3l:
I think it is a problem with your router or ip setup.

Try this:

Set wireless connection ip-s with static and same as you get automatically from router. And DNS server put 8.8.8.8
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinchenson:
Can you explain that a little more? Im a noob in this field ;(

Thank you for ur answer btw
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarekh020:
Your best bet is to do a factory reset and don't skip any configuration needed to complete setting up this nice phone

Good luck and don't worry we are here to help you
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinchenson:
I have already tried that too, the only part I skippped is the microsim one, i only have a sim on my old phone, i dont dare to cut it if then it doesnt work on is device and ill have to wait until i receive the microsim to sim adaptor.

As it follows, i enter my wifi data, that doesnt give me any error, and after that, the gmail account (which is the same I used to buy the device). After 2min or so, it gives me the error comented on #1 :s

I dunno if it does matter, but i mean factory restore as the option inside settings > security copy > restore factory data

Thank you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaar3l:
Go to settings>Wireless

Press and hold your connected access point

Check Show advanced options

Click IP settings and change from DHCP to Static

Enter your IP/DNS

You have to know what is your phone's ip, or you could view ipad ip and change the last number.

IP: 192.168.XXX.XXX

Gateway: 192.168.XXX.XXX (Your router address)

Netmask: 255.255.255.0 (Usually it is like that)

DNS: 8.8.8.8 (It's google's dns, maybe you should use dns from your internet provider.

View your ipad ip:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vinchenson:
Thank you for that explanation, but i am afraid it doesnt solve the problem. By using the 8.8.8.8 (static connection) dns, chrome gives me the error that there is no connection to wifi, if i use the same dns i have on my ipad, it says, connection acceptable, but it takes years to load a page (in case it does)

Thank you all for your effort, i rly appreciate that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hervelo:
Can you :

- configure the same network configuration that you have on your tablet, on your phone (IP,netmask,DNS, network,gateway)

- disable networking on your tablet

- try again.

If it fails, you should think about sending it back.

Thank you for ur answer. Also tried what u did, doesnt work.

If no one else comes out with some other possible answer.... As u said, ill have to send this **** back..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hervelo:
You can also flash back the factory images but since you are still under warranty and don't really used to this kind of technical stuff, i won't advise you to do so.

Just keep in mind that sadly, the device is very popular and that Google will have new phones available only in about 3 weeks.

[HTC Sensation] orusama:
Hi guys,

That's my first post so pleace be nice to me :D. So i have a sensation and i'm trying to install a custom rom in it but i have some problems.First i used htc dev to root it and then i used the instructions in this page (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1098849) to install the rom. But in the part where I use superwipe I get the massage "Signature verification failed". I red something about clockworkmod so I installed the rom manager app which also gives me the error "you must root your phone for rom manager to function"...... Isn't my phone rooted..... twice??

This is my hboot screen:

You need to have the superuser app. S-OFF isn't root.

You can turn off signature verification in Clockworkmod settings so it will flash properly.

[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
install 4ext recovery and then flash the rom again

best wishes
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Yes, install 4ext. Recovery. It's a really great touch recovery. Most people use it and some roms require it. You can find it here in xda or even the play store. It's very easy to use and I think you will really like it. It makes flashing roms a breeze. I know I like it! Give that a try and see. To flash the rom you put the rom on root of SD card. Back up your apps from titanium back up so you can reinstall them. Wipe data factory reset, wipe cash, wipe dalvik, and install from SD card. Choose your rom. Make sure you do a nandroid backup of your previous rom. So you can restore it if you get in a pinch. Do the backup first before flashing. I hope this helps. Best wishes.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] orusama:
Well for the past few days i was searching around for a solution too. No matter what i tried nothing works since whenever i try too install something from recovery (and every time there's something that must be installed from recovery) i get that message. At the top of that i can't even update my phone to a newer version of the original rom..... Sooooo i think i'll stop for now since with my luck there's a great chance to crush my phone :D!!!!

Thanks for the help though guys!!!

I did a speed test yesterday. My gsm nexus against his iPhone with LTE in our area. Mine is on T-Mobile and his is on Verizon. We tested 3 different same servers each. I got 7 to 10mb download and he got 7 to 10mb. His ping times were better overall. I know LTE is capable of being faster but I'm pretty dang happy with mine.

Doesn't matter. You still got 1000 ping. Don't expect to use VoIP or game on it.
