Would love to help, unfortunately this does not seem to work on Synergy 118. tried with complete wipe as well as clearing Cache and Dalvik, still no dice. This looks like a great mod though.
[HTC Wildfire S] maanusav:
Hello!

Ill just start from the beginning...

My girlfriend droped her HTC wildfire S and digitizer and LCD were broken.

Since local repair shop asked 100EUR to repair it, I decided to buy the parts

myself and give it a try (since there are alot of tutorials).

I managed to replace digitizer and lcd. I was able to start the phone, but the

touch screen didnt respond ...

I tried to find solution, but nothing really worked. I thought that maybe i could reset the phone to factory settings and that would fix the digitizer problem.

Unfortunately it didnt and I tried recovery option from that menu (that you bring up if you hold volume and that other smaller button at same time) and that just brought up some kind of picture with phone and exclamation mark. I waited for a while and nothing happened so i turned the phone off..

When I turned the phone back on, the screen was black (but there was vibration and sound, so I assume that it was able to start) and there was only light from the buttons at the bottom of the screen.

I searched everywhere for solutions, but it seems that most of them require me to have USB debugging on but I have no idea how to do this if i can't see anything and the digitizer is probably still not responding..

Long story short, I'm really confused and have no clue what to do next, if you need any further information, please ask!

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Wildfire S] ngoralph:
Hardware problem return it back to the shop
[HTC Wildfire S] maanusav:
I dont think that is possible, since I already tried to fix it myself and theres no warranty.

If anyone got a clue how I could fix this problem then please let me know! : /
[HTC Wildfire S] MrGuyFawkes:
I'm not sure if it is so but I think you might try to clear S58 data with a gold card in order to get the screen to work.

So you need to make a gold card and boot into fastboot with the card inserted and do stuff.

But that's just a wild guess...
[HTC Wildfire S] maanusav:
I've seen the words "gold card" few times around forums and some people have got their digitizer to work again and so on. Right now im really confused, why the hell did my lcd just shut down after entering recovery? I've read that theres some king of "Black screen bug" or something like that, I wonder if thats the case?

Is it possible to mess around with that gold card, even if I cant see anything? Because a) LCD is not working at this point b) USB debugging is not on, and I don't think I can even turn it on if LCD and digitizer are not working correctly.
[HTC Wildfire S] ngoralph:
hmmmm does gold card work for gsm?????? i remembered reading that its for cdma only??? not sure though

---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------

yes,2012 wfs have this bug due to change in something in the screen but since you changed your digitizer, maybe the guy that changed your digitizer used one from a new wfs just a wild guess though look at my sig and flash the recovery given there if it works then you have the problem many users have
[HTC Wildfire S] maanusav:
But that means I have to unlock bootloader? But I probably need to have USB debugging enabled and I have no idea how to do this

if I can't use the phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] MrGuyFawkes:
I don't know if you have to unlock the bootloader, but using a goldcard may work for clearing up the S58 data (which I think is for the screen and such). Works for both GSM and CDMA (it just doesn't make the phone S-OFF on GSM version).

And no USB debugging needed either, just start the phone into bootloader with the goldcard inserted and follow the instruction (don't remember really what buttons to press tough...)

Oh and btw, clearing S58 may also factory reset you ROM

Sorry, in a bit of a crunch, have some buyers coming over. Is it EC05?

Thanks!

I have EL30 & FC19 tars, but I don't think they are official.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
EC05 too old! Latest official "release" is FC09 and latest "leak" is FC19.

F stands for the "year of Android" this firmware comes out (D = 2010, E = 2011, F = 2012)

C stands for the month (A = January, B = February, so on)

Number is the date

So EC05 is March 5th, 2011 whilst FC09 is March 9th, 2012. Much newer.

Also FC19 is a leak but information suggests that it's bearing "release-keys" not "test-keys"

I can't get to it, but if you go to the "roll-up stickies" thread, there is one called "How to unroot/unbrick your Epic and bring it back from the brink" by senior member Dyehya; in the OP, you will find links to Kennyglass123's FC09 tar and also the EL30 tar (I believe the EL30 tar is there, but don't swear to it)

same as my gnex.... except i cant carry a spare.

phone is ace, just not sure how im going to get through a whole day.
[Nexus 4 General] mike2518:
Yup, seems battery life is not too good on this thing, similar to the Galaxy nexus, average 3.5 hrs Max for most people.
[Nexus 4 General] djkinetic:
3.5 hrs screen time? thats more then enough for a full day if so
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Probably because you've been playing with it nonstop.

Wait til the novelty wears off and you use it normally. Only then can you make that claim.
[Nexus 4 General] eep2378:
Stop with the poor battery threads already. If your dissatisfied return the device or wait for a custom kernel.

PS. Battery life threads are still poo, too! ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Seemonsters:
I'd expect it to greatly improve when 4.2.1 or whatever rolls out.
[Nexus 4 General] MakoVince:
Ill buy the phone off you if the battery life isnt good enough. Jus' sayin'.
[Nexus 4 General] crachel:
There are a couple battery threads already, please post your comments there.

So I've had my N7 for 30 minutes. So could someone please direct me to a rooting procedure and suggest a ROM. :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostaa:
Good, I would recommend keep diving through post for your better knowledge and understanding. Happy learning :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior1975:
There isn't too much out for 4.2 but 4.1.2 has plenty of options. The easiest way to root would be a toolkit. You don't learn much but if you don't care that's fine. Otherwise keep reading.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k5mitch:
I'm pretty savoy rooting and installing ROMs on my Samsung skyrocket S2. So I didn't know if there's a better way w/N7. It has already updated to 4.2.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warrior1975:
There aren't many ROMs supporting 4.2. I think there is one that is stock deodexed. 4.1.2 has plenty of options. You may like 4.2 though so try it for a bit. Wug has a good toolkit. One click rooting. Easy
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allex1:
Hello,

You should try the 4.2 roms in the development area. There are stock ones with root enabled by default. I'm using scrosler's one for 3 days now and it's working ok. Better than the OTA anyway.

You do need to flash clockworkmod first to be able to flash roms.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] untogether:
Hey guys,

I'm looking to get an Android tablet for my girlfriend- she's no gamer or hacker, so doesn't have huge requirements. The one important one is being able to play Flash video well (she watches TV shows online). I've been shopping around, and it looks like I can get the original Transformer TF101 plus keyboard dock for the same price as the TF300 *without* dock.

How is the OG Transformer holding up these days? Is it still working fast enough to use as a daily browser, music listener and flash-player? Or would you recommend I skip up to the TF300, even though it means no keyboard?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
Id go with the 300 the reboot issues that plauges the 101 would be infuriating for any one who isnt tech savy
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vietchinh:
Since when reboot issue's? Only i had is some times app crash but that's it :D

anyways 300 or 700.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jocalderone:
Ive had my TF101 since last year, and bought my dad a TF300 about 2 months ago.

The TF300 is incredible. Even without keyboard (unless she'd want to do some work on it). Get it.

Oh, and TF300 is upgradable to JB straight out of the box.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost0001:
I am working with my TF101 since February this year. I have JB on it using CM10 nightlies. The only issue is that flash player cannot be installed at this current time. However, netflix, crackle, and youtube work. I have not tried hulu or other video services because I have not paid for them. With the update to JB it had felt like a new device. So, for price, the TF101 with dock would be great if she decides to be on the move for over eight hours.

But on the flip side, the 300 or even the 700 would be a better buy. Since JB is an update right out of the box for the 300, you can rest assured that your device will stay current for at least that update. Plus, the way these dev forums go, you may even be able to upgrade past its life. As for the dock, I find it a blessing when I want to type a lot or enter complex passwords. Just the tab with a good case may be well enough.

Hope that helps and happy shopping.

*EDIT*

I have had no random reboots with the TF101 since I installed CM10 nightlies on it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedy11131:
I'm still using my TF101 after all this time. Granted its rooted and flashed but I've had no problems with it. With Flash outside apps you could use a Browser like Maxthon which still has the option for working with Flash, then side loading the apk for her. Never had the random reboots with mine.

Then again out of the box maybe 300 is just easier to get going. /shrug
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GdmImpulse:
IMO this device wouldn't serve well for someone non-technical, and it's not the fastest device. The biggest pros are the great battery life with the dock and the developer-friendliness.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kudiska:
i think its still worth it. i just got this one from a friend.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
Honestly, at this point in time, I'd go for a Nexus 7..

(I actually jumped to the Note 10.1 but it sounds like your gf might enjoy the Nexus 7 more because it's a media, read/watch stuff kind of tablet.)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixxx:
Never had issues with mine tf101 (rooted) and also dont remember ever having lack of performance. All games i tried work perfect (THD versions), xept that online shadowgun wich just says it only work on tegra3(as expected).

As you say she is not hacker, so most likely you will have to manually install flash (its not supported anymore, boo). It works quite well on mine, even to play flash games where you need to click on things, tho its hard to hit small ones. Flash video works fine (twitch.tv and youtube).

Overall you probably should get tf300, as it is more powerful and can be updated to JellyBean from stock. There is some guides how to install flash to JB.

I got 101 because it have 2 USB in dock and that distinctive look - i mean that textured back and goldy border, it does not look like other tablets or netbooks. I just fell in love with it (:

One thing that you might look upon - i weights more than 600grams that may be little heavy for woman. My sis hands get tired after playing for some time (tho she plays that gyroscope games where you need to dance shamanic rituals with the tab, so)
[HTC Droid DNA] aliHTCDHD:
I keep on hearing many reviewers calling the USB cover annoying and inconvenient. First of all its brilliant, because it's better have one than to not because long term it brings benefits. It also means that the design doesn't cut any corners interms of how a mobile phone should be. I realised this when I noticed that all good phones before iPhone all had these flaps even samsung. But when everything went touchscreen they stopped the flaps, if iPhone or samsung make flaps on thier phones its a brilliant idea, nobody will complain like they didn't when it was a standard to have a flap but when HTC does it or Sony because It's different everyone bashes the idea.

I can remember when all TVs where made out of metal and remotes, now everything is plastic meaning hardware no longer has a quality feel to it. The only tv manufacturers that still use metal are B&O. I know that having a flap is flimsy but compromises have to be made for quality like a Rolex or something prestigious they will look nice but will always be heavy. All I'm trying to say is theirs no need to hate something that was saw as a standard and I'm more than happy to have it because other flagship phones don't which gives it a design advantage, it looks neater and it means more effort has been placed in this handset.
[HTC Droid DNA] pottersam:
In my opinion the biggest benefit of the USB cover is waterproofing. Wireless charging and Airdroid cover me for the rest of what the USB cord would be used for.
[HTC Droid DNA] geoff5093:
From the Engadget review, they stated that the USB cover was added to help make the phone splash resistant like the Butterfly, if that's the case then this is awesome. The only issues are that it's going to be harder and more expensive for car docks.
[HTC Droid DNA] ML417:
Motorola's Atrix HD and new Razr line are all splash resistant but they dont have covers

the reason everyone hates on the cover is because it's an extra step needed when connecting a USB, but at the same time because of the wireless charging, you're going to be using the USB port a lot less, thus it's better to have it covered so it wont collect a bunch of dust inside from having it exposed, and at the same time it's not going to be an inconvenience too often to take the cover off when you do need it.
[HTC Droid DNA] treadwayj:
it is a slight pain to have to remove, which is partly why i picked up a charging pad for the office and will soon be picking one up for home. i do like the idea that it is covered though since i do carry my phone in my pocket and its like a lint factory in there.

i am curious to see how an otterbox or other rugged case looks since those usually cover the ports anyway
[HTC Droid DNA] aliHTCDHD:
Nice to hear that you are all adopting the idea of wireless charging, I like the idea but I have a feeling apple will make one and it will charge quicker and look better. I could only imagine the ads for the iPhone 5S bragging about wireless charging as if they invented it and they probably try to patent it.
[HTC Droid DNA] awaitforitb:
Well apple clearly mentioned they dont like the idea of wireless charging coz you still need to plug a wire in the wireless charger. That said they also didnt like the idea of 7 inch tablet. :o

I personally like the idea of wireless charging especially with starbucks already providing wireless charging on there tables.
[HTC Droid DNA] gitku:
"Well apple clearly mentioned they dont like the idea of wireless charging coz you still need to plug a wire in the wireless charger."

If apple said this ... they should be ashamed because that is wildly poor reasoning ... there is much less effort on the users behalf and a greatly improved experience when you just have to lay your phone down to charge it... that being said I'm sure ape said that because poor reasoning skills are their signature ..
[HTC Droid DNA] suzook:
As soon as I open the box, I'm ripping the thing off. Stupid cover!
[HTC Droid DNA] mjneubrander:
Super Awesome USB mod.

I tied a piece of floss to the cover and then tied the floss to a micro usb reader... It is really easy to open now. I always have my micro SD card with me, just waiting for my OTG cable and my setup is complete.

There are 256 shades of black and white.
[HTC Droid DNA] Mooem7:
It's actually gotten easier for me to open and close. It took some effort for a few days but now I can do it without really struggling. I find it's much easier to put in the non-attached end first.

The only issue I have with it is desk docks or stands won't be as easy to use with the flap in the way. Granted wireless charging would help, but I'm still not particularly sold on it yet.
[HTC Droid DNA] rajuabju:
After trying to live with it for a few days, I'm going to cut my cover off.

Water doesnt scare me!
[HTC Droid DNA] aliHTCDHD:
I think it's something people will get used to after a few times it will feel normal to me it looks more premium but using it probably is fiddly.
[HTC Droid DNA] fireguy0306:
I actually like it.

It cleans the lines up to not see the ugly port.

I don't mind removing it, yes its a tiny bit of a pain, but I think the positives outweigh the negative
[HTC Droid DNA] DbZ Gokuu:
What is on the screen of your phone? Lol
[HTC Droid DNA] Ndaoud360:
Mine just ripped off. I still keep it on because I like not having to see a big hole when looking around my phone. I'm going to super glue it back from where it ripped off.
[HTC Droid DNA] paulguy:
Holy crap some of you people are so lazy. I could see maybe the flap being a bit annoying, even if you get used to it and it's really not that bad afterwards, but some of you think even having to connect a cable is some huge effort? It's not even a consideration for me that connecting a cable is any real effort at all, and I can't really understand how it could be considered that.
[HTC Droid DNA] adrynalyne:
How did you relate annoying with lazy?

:eek:
[HTC Droid DNA] Tomatoes8:
It is a typical annoying HTC move. People wonder why HTC is losing money every year, it is because of crap like this. Sure, it may not seem like big deal but all the little details add up. There are a ton of problems they seem to ignore and now they just added another one.

Flush buttons.

Power button on top of tall or huge phones

USB port on the side of the One X

Dumbest multitasking set up ever

Horrible carousel when scrolling through wallpapers and skins.

USB port flap.

Etc.

The reason the flap is annoying is because that flap will wear out faster that the rest of your phone unless you strictly use wireless charging. Every other high end phone you can keep it mint way easier without a flap you have to open every night or even more with the crap battery.
[HTC Droid DNA] Danzoman:
Here is a pic of the last phone I owned with a cover like that. Over two years of service and beat to hell and back. I'm not to worried about durability. Of it does wear out it looks like it can be pulled out with pliers. Kinda like those plastic things they put in shirts with the price tags on it.

On a side note I hope they fix this much touted camera. It took me 15 tries to get this pic even this good. I'm not going to have time to bumble around with settings at the spur of the moment.

hate to tell you but you've posted in the sprint s3 forum regarding an at&t s3 on verizon lol.

One swing and two misses, how does that happen?

As the other user said, you're in the wrong forum with that question but I'll entertain an answer.

Short version: it's not going to happen. AT&T is GSM, Verizon is CDMA. Both phones use different frequencies to provide service with and I don't believe they support each other.

I may be wrong but I believe the only way to get the screen to pop up where you enter the code you have to insert a T-Mobile Sim and boot the phone.

Are you trying to put in the unlock code for your phone? No need to modify your APN settings. Your phone uses your provider's APN settings for data access, why modify them? You don't need T-Mobile SIM card. You just need a card from ANY different provider. You're in Canada and on Telus? Get a Rogers or FIDO sim card, put it in, reboot. The phone will promt you to enter the unlock code. Once it's accepted, reboot. Your phone is now unlocked.
