[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KingP1n:
I called T-Mobile (ask for loyal dpt or retention center) over the 3 day weekend upset that I could not upgrade until 2014, I've been a loyal customer for 7+yrs and I was rambling about getting cancellation info and the rep asked why...I stated that sprint was offering great deals on the note 2 and that I could get it for $300. She said cancelling wld not be a such a great idea $(200 per line fee) and said she would see what she cld do....she came back and offer the note 2 for 509.99 so I took bait and bought it. I sld be receiving it tonight....can't wait to get off from work....I'll keep you posted...for those that been customers for awhile you may want to look into this.....worst they can say is no!

Forgot to mention...I'm grandfathered into an older plan and still have T-Mobile@home service so I didn't want to upgrade to the newer plans...

Wow, I'm not eligible for an upgrade til 2014 either but nabbed one on Saturday for $200 flat, no rebates or anything. :highfive:

FYI because of the Samsung sale the outright price was $499 this weekend, which is what you paid.

I noticed one guy said hit the eBay for cases, instead of doing that go to Samsung.com and register your phone. Right after doing that Samsung will send you a coupon code to your email that you can use over and over again for a month that code is good for 50 percent of every and any excessories.

On samsung.com there are about three cases to choose from. On ebay theres close to 2500 listings. Oem accessories are one thing, but for cases theres a ton more to choose from on ebay.

[Nexus 7 General] Lens Pirate:
I was a doubter. I enjoyed my other android devices and was able to over come the hurdles that carriers and manufacturers placed in my way.

This Nexus 7 was my first pure Google device. As a result of owning this device my entire view point on this has changed.

Combine this Nexus 7 with the Nexus 7 tool kit, Rom manager, and clockwork mod recoveries this thing is a JOY to play with. I had the

4.2 update with in minuets of its release. Complete back ups pushed to multiple computers with zero stress. Look forward to custom ROMs with glee now.

THIS IS HOW ANDROID IS MEANT TO BE.

I will never be lured into spending my money chasing hardware specs and style from Skinned locked devices again. Not one cent.

Heart felt thanks to Google, XDA, and the devs here for changing the very nature of the mobile device game.

This is common mainly with devices from china and a few other countries. They use their own version of heavily modded official versions of android.

You maybe able to back up the rom but will be hard pressed to find a custom rom for the device.

So, this may be more of a Windows question, but this is the only device I have this kind of "problem". When my Iconia A500 tab is connected as a MTP device, I can go to the Camera folders and view the images as thumbnail previews, but with my phone, on both my home PC and work laptop, it just shows the generic icons for images, not actual thumbnail previews... Anyone know how to correct this, if possible?

I want to send back my phone to htc because my earpiece is not working correclty. I rooted my phone with AlpharevX method. I wanted to go back to S-ON and stock rom so i dont void my warranty. I flashed 0.98 bootloader and the i run RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed but it stoped updating the phone and gave me ERROR 131. It changed bootloader and radio but my phone has no rom inside. What should i do now?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Wooow there is a big mess here!

First your phone is branded. You have to use the proper RUU. European won't do. Not true

Second you have used a leaked RUU firmware, posted by mdeejay so you should have used misc_version.

Third now you stuck without root so you have to use htcdev.com

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] ignited:
I thought my phone was not branded.... I should have checked that beforehand. I called HTC and they have the ruu for my phone but they wont give it to me... I'll try to find it elsewhere... not even htc has it on their site. If i get the old RUU will it flash the old bootloader and old radio? or im stuck on the new ones?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Sorry

I have checked and your CID is included in the European RUU. But still you have used the wrong RUU because 2.10.401.9 contains only the CID for Russia. The last GB RUU for the rest of the European region is 2.10.401.8

Anyway now even if you can get back the old 0.98 hboot you cannot use Revolutionary, because you need USB Debugging and an booted OS for it. With the Stock recovery you cannot use the misc_version. I am afraid the only way is htcdev.com flash a custom recovery, use the misc_version, relock the bootloader then go back to stock with a proper RUU. I hope they will acknowledge that your problem is hardware related and has nothing to do with the unlocked bootloader. But you can avoid that if you use older RUU (1.28 or 1.47) there is no Locked/Relocked line there
[HTC Desire S] ignited:
I run RUU_SAGA_ICS_35_S_HTC_EU_14.01.401.2_20.76.30.0835_3831.19.00.110_275068 everything went ok, phone booted. Ready to ship to HTC for repair! Thanks amidabuddha
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
You was fast :)

This is an option too.

There was a way with an OTA but now it is too late for that. The ICS RUU should keep the warranty on the hardware and I hope they will acnowledge it.
[HTC Desire S] ignited:
The ICS RUU is not official either? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Well it is semi-official, so to say :) But should keep the warranty on the hardware.

Also the OTA way that I was thinking about has a 50 % chance to work, because it includes a modification of a signed by HTC zip.

So in any case the ICS RUU is the better option compared to htcdev.com unlock in terms of warranty. And the easier as well.

Good luck with the repair and sorry if I confused you somehow with my posts.

Hi,

*** PLEASE READ THIS THRU CAREFULLY BEFORE RESPONDING ***

I apologize. I am not trying to be rude. But I'm sure that we will all agree that it is simply wasting time and energy, when people do not read something thru and just paste in fixes that have already been stated as not working (below), or asking questions that have already been answered (below).

Anyway folks.....

I have read the various threads that I could find on this, but none of the problems are exactly like mine and none of the fixes helped me, so I thought I would try in a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 area. I hope I haven't violated any rules.

I have a 32GB Samsung Galaxy WiFi 10.1" P7510 Tablet and at least 8GB of free speace.

I am running the Factory ICS v4.0.4 ROM Rooted, with the A1 OverClocking Kernel & CWM added to it.

What's happening is the following:

Apps in Google Play will install fine. Updates also work.

Apps from Amazon App Store/Market will no longer update, nor "Reinstall".

Apps that I have downloaded from web sites (Apk files) will not install.

If I try to install one of the second and third options, I do get the box that pops up and it shows both the "Install", and "Cancel" buttons.

But if I tap "Install", nothing happens. No error messages, nothing. The button doesn't even visually indent like it normally would when you tap a button on your Android device.

I have tried uninstalling apps, to see if it was messing up on the amount of free space, but that didn't help.

I tried clearing the Cache and Data in both the Amazon and Google Stiores/Markets, but that didn't help.

I tried uninstalling one of my apps from the Amazon Market, to reinstall it, because it wouldn't update, but now it won't even install again!

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!!!

Unknown Sources?

Maybe an over-kill question, but have you allowed 'Unknown Sources' to be enabled? If so, then this is a stumper indeed. Your story looks so much like that -should- be the issue... Good luck if that is not the issue...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Zeuszoos:
That is a good question, but yes, I do have it enabled. I even tried enabling and disabling the "Debug" setting just in case it would make a difference.

Unfortunately i' ve dropped my nexus 7 and my screen broke. Touch screen and volume buttons doesn't work... warranty doesn't cover the accidental damage, so... i' ve heard that it costs 50€+transport+reparation cost (If i' m correct).

SOLVED!

Hey all

So recently I turned my NFC settings on by ticking the NFC box on my SNS and the box just turned gray and I can't change it. I factory resetted the phone and rooted it and after restoring phone the box was unticked and good to go. Now I accidentally ticked the box again and can't untick it. I tried factory resetting, wiping cache, resetting it through CWM bootloader, nothing works to untick the damn box. Anyone got a solution to this?

Having this on decreases battery life by around 30% so it's really a problem.

Help please?

Hi,

I am newbie. sorry for that. It tells me that I need flas a NODO rom first to Downgrade SPL

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1271118

I have mango with 4.x version.

1) I think I need to downgrade to NODO first?

2) "flash a NODO Rom first to downgrade SPL" - does flashing Rom means downgrading also? or I need to flas first and then I can only downgrade to 3.x, 2.x, 1.x versions?

3) which SPL version I need exactly? as I know I can flash Rom with 4.x as well. It is not sufficient?

4) Shubert is for flashing or downgrading based on the version if question one is not same?

5) I am in Europe -Germany but I use DE_O2. which version I should use? DE_O2 means O2 branded phones or if I use O2 as provider only. because my card is O2 but phone is not O2 branded.

thanks for the answers.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justinjk:
There is a thread that explains the answer to most of your questions, I think: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1295068

Also, the wiki helped me a lot too, so search HTC HD7 on that. I still haven't been able to flash mine (problems with the microsd card reader, maybe).

From what I understand, by downgrading your ROM to an early version, you also end up with a downgraded bootloader. The OLD bootloader is the only one that is capable of allowing you to flash a custom rom such as Deepshining. In order to downgrade the ROM, you need to create a goldcard or use a similar method (there is a method for European devices that apparently doesn't require you to use a Y-Cable/Goldcard, here is the thread on that: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1411904 but make sure you completely understand your options first).

Read the replies to see if anyone else had experiences with DE_O2.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hotboy_ist:
We are pleased to confirm that the latest version of the S Pen SDK for the Samsung GALAXY Note is now available to download, bringing the Multi-Window feature for the GALAXY Note II. Multiple apps can be loaded in multiple windows, providing more flexibility for the end user and true PC-like multi-tasking wherever it’s needed.

● Multi Window is available on the GALAXY Note II using an S Pen.

- Multi Window and its related APIs were added to improve the usability of apps that utilize the S Pen on the GALAXY Note II.

- The screen can be split vertically or horizontally within apps that use the S Pen without switching to another screen, allowing the user to display related apps on one screen simultaneously.

- Multi Window supports data transaction using the clipboard, as well as drag & drop to allow easy sharing of data between apps that use Multi Window

*Note: GALAXY Note II devices for some regions or carriers may require upgrading to the latest firmware to use Multi Window.

● Unnecessary and duplicate APIs have been deprecated, and the names of some APIs have been changed.

- Deprecated methods can be used in the previous 2.2 version and the current version, but they will be removed in future versions

● Some errors in S Pen SDK 2.2 have been corrected in this release.

The SDK includes 20 sample apps for you to use in your own applications, so you can quickly understand how to make the most of each available method. You can find the samples at http://developer.samsung.com/s-pen-sdk/samples

In addition, there is some extenstion for developers using Unity Engine, a popular 3D game engine. You can integrate the S Pen SDK library into their apps. To make integrating the S Pen and Unity easier, the S Pen SDK Unity Extension is available as a simple “package file” that is easily consumed in Unity as a Unity Plug-in. Download at http://developer.samsung.com/s-pen-sdk/unity-extension

Very nice, I'm definitely going to add support for Multi-Window and S-Pen in my existing apps soon.

Judging from the growing popularity of Samsung devices, it might be worth the effort to implement it (which doesn't seem that big of a deal anyway).

Plus this would give me a chance to take part in the Samsung Smart App Challenge 2013, the venture capital pitch opportunity is enormous.
