Hello,

I'm having troubles to configure the path on windows 8 to use ADB on my laptop...

Can someone help me?

Install like you would on Windows 7. It was the drivers that were difficult for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iammaz:
How did you get HTC drivers working on windows 8? is there a guide somewhere?

I'm just getting setup with android dev again and I'm on win 8.1 because of the restrictions of developing on the windows phone 8 platform but I can't connect to my old HTC Desire Z for debugging etc. I've ordered a Nexus 4 (reading some of the threads here i might have some problems with it too) but I'll be unable to collect it for over 2 weeks. If i can get my HTC working in the next 4 days i can start developing right away.

After contacting HTC support, I was told that the drivers are part of HTC sync and "Please be advised that we are unable to know if and when HTC Sync will be available for Windows 8.". I tried the drivers that someone had extracted from the installer and posted here on the forum but no luck getting them to work. Any advice?

I believe i discovered the fix to the problem with SMS, wherein some Razr's dot not receive SMS, I think only asian Razr's have this problem.

The solution is simple, worked with me and my friend.

Just put your "Network type" to 3G Only.

Obviously you will need to be with the 3G signal for all work.

Cheers!

Yes, Google hastily and sloppily killed it as a quick security fix. The issue has been reported back to Google to implement a better / alternative solution.

If it's important to you, please go to the link below and 'star' the issue so it gets Google's attention quicker.

Bring back the ability to toggle airplane mode, or a way to enable/disable the cellular radio without affecting other radios

I'm not asking for a definitive answer, but when do you think 4.2 will be available on our phone? Unofficial of course.

Apparently the roll out for 4.1.2 is due out in December for the s3 so I would expect like end of first quarter 2013 for 4.2

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] keplenk:
Hey Guys,

I just recently bought my wife a 64gb micro sdcard and I was hoping I could make it the default storage for everything if possible.

What I meant about that is for caching like maps, dropbox, fxcamera, maxgo, hbogo, and many more. ( it is currently located at /sdcard0/Android/data ).

Another thing is for some apps like whatsapp/groupme/viber, to save videos/pictures there. There seems to be no settings in whatsapp to save attachments to the external.

The only thing I've managed so far is to set the camera to save to the ext sdcard, that is about it!

Is there a way to move /sdcard/Android/Data to the external SD card?

Also, is there a way to install apps to the external sd instead of internal? She just had the phone in 10 days and it is almost full :(

Thanks!

EDIT: Wife GN2 is stock, unrooted -> will not root ever :)

EDIT 2: I just read that you can't move apps to the EXT SDCard anymore with JB - but that is fine as long as I can assign cache/default directory storage of apps to the External SD .. if someone knows how to :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] keplenk:
BUMP!

I just did a lot of research and found out that with GS3 and GN2 you can't transfer app to ext SD or install apps on the ext SD anymore when in stock.

Wow, that is so bad! Three big games would fill the 16gb already. I'm pretty sure Google has a good reason for that.

Anyway, some features of the GN2 like burst shot does not allow to save pictures to the external sd card (which is fine) but is there a way to automatically transfer files from internal to sdcard, while deleting files from the internal files while doing the process. It is like rsync in Linux.

As much as possible I want the GN2 to purely use the external SD instead of the internal.

Any app that can do that? Unrooted.

JellyBelly has this integrated(on Rootz). Dunno about an apk floating around.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] elead1:
I have little hope for this, but thought I'd post it up anyway before buying a new phone. I have been using the JellyBomb ROM for about two weeks now, and until today it was working fine. Then (seemingly) randomly, while I was browsing a webpage in Firefox, the phone locked up.

"Okay, I'll just force a hard reboot." So I held down the power button and it turned off. When I turned it back on, it got stuck at the HTC screen (I let it sit for about 15 minutes). So I did another hard reboot and booted into bootloader (power + vol down), which came up fine. I went into recovery (TWRP 2.3), which took about 5-10 minutes to move past the TEAMWIN splash screen into the menu.

Once in the menu, I went to reflash the ROM, but no files showed up in either the internal or external storage which I found strange. I then went to reboot from the menu, at which point TWRP informed me that I had no OS installed. At that point, TWRP froze up, so I did a hard power off again and tried to boot it back into recovery but nothing happened. The soft buttons didn't even flash like usual.

Once I had access to my computer, I plugged it in, hoping that something would change with it connected to a PC. At that point, the Windows driver manager reported failure at installing a driver. I checked device manager to see that I had a QHUSB-DLOAD device connected. After some Googling, I attempted Unlimited.IO's fix tool (using a Linux live CD, obviously). I had little hope, however, because my device was S-ON. And sure enough, although the tool reported completion there was no change to the phone.

So, now that that long-winded (and hopefully sufficiently detailed) story is complete, does anyone have any suggestions/advice/instructions for me?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] VECTUS:
Hey elead got your pm and I'm sorry this has occurred to you. I'm not familiar with the unlimited IO. But I will suggest that you allow your phone to charge tonight while its off... The reason for this is I believe the battery has fallen to a level such that will not allow the boot process to work... Having said that allow it to charge the night... Then see if it will boot into bootloader in the morning. If it does this you should be able to flash an ruu. I realize this is a stressful time, I've been in your shoes before and actually bricked. BUT, I believe your phone is salvalgeable and with a proper charge you be able to fix the issue... Please report back in the morning and let me know... Ok??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] elead1:
I will post back with results. Not like I've got much else to do with it right now, eh? :laugh:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] elead1:
No change. :( I'm thinking maybe I'll take it to the Sprint store and play dumb to see if they'll just give me a new one (it's worked before!).

Hi.

S-voice seems to work more accurately for my "accent" than google's program so I've had a decent success rate with it for daily use this last week.

That said, I cannot tell whether this feature is available: when I ask it to send a text or email and give it the content, it asks me for a visual confirmation that it got the words right. is there a way to get it to speak back what I asked it to type up? I've spent last three days searching without luck, which suggests this doesn't exist yet so I'm just paying to obtain confirmation and closure.

Thank you for your time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kkl0wn:
I found it strange it did not do this. Its almost all hands free up until this point if your using Bluetooth you have to look at your phone. Almost makes it pointless. I have not found away around it yet but I do agree it should read the text back to you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] zakerny:
Thanks for confirming. The one time I got google now to write a text message for me, it, too, did not repeat it outloud. Well, I just won't use that feature then, it's already gotten me in trouble with incorrect word.

I found a an application called "assistant" which sort of does it well, but it's just so.. rough. Always a compromise, isn't it?

Bummer.

ESN Swap Legality Discussion here < Swap Legal - Cloning Illegal is what i get from it

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=433566

Alright i have a Boost Mobile PAYGO account and i do not use data at all. I use WIFI when i need it. I'm currently using a HTC Touch Pro (no data as i said) and also have a Samsung Factor and Motorola W385 just laying around. What would be my best course to take in swapping the ESN and info from 1 of those 3 phones to my recently acquired HTC EVO 3D?

All i would need to do is swap the ESN and MEID since im not planning on using data....right?

Would the HTC Touch Pro be the best Donor Phone for me to use since its already in use and a HTC product?

I have the EVO to 3D guide (for Incognito and Rant) but would just appreciate the help on getting the info from the old Touch Pro.

Any help would be appreciated. Just need guidance guys. Thanks

Alright i've gathered just about all the information i needed to do this by way of searching google and help from other forums.

I was actually able to get my data working on the Touch Pro so now im thinking of doing the complete swap.

I only have 1 final question. When i go to get the NV Item data from my HTC Touch Pro donor phone do i read and save the data from 465, 466, 1192 and 1194 just like the Incognito, Rant and other donor phones? I mean are those numbers (or memory positions that holds the phone's data) from the Memory universal meaning they apply to any and all Donor Phones? thanks.

I got a Razr Maxx that cames with 4.0.4 version already (got it from CLARO, claro rom 672.180.311) and since first moment im experiencing low quality from wifi connections.

i moved for 672.180.340, same quality, them for .350 and used a lot of cm10 biulds (d-wiz, crackerteam, etc...) all of them i got an unstable wifi connection. With CM10 i think was little better then others, but still worse them my DEFY and my OPTIMUS2X. after lot of times getting wifi connection droped i start to analyze it using this software that i use since my first android (HTC Diamond, android version 1.6) https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImNvbS5mYXJwcm9jLndpZmkuYW5hbHl6ZXIiXQ..

when im 5-7 meters away from my Router all those phones still with -40db (total signal) and my razr maxx is getting moving from -80 ~ -50. it never comes on -40db and the changes have so fast frequency.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] drunkenbard16:
I'm totally disappointed with the wi-fi on this device. I upgraded recently from a very basic android phone (LG P350) and it had better signal (which is unacceptable) . I've tried some tweaks to improve it but nothing worked. I'm almost convinced of buying a more powerful router for my home office. I'm not willing to install custom roms just yet, so I've only tested it with stock ICS from VIVO.

Let me know if you find something to enhance signal strength and stability.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rafaelsartori:
Ok drunken, thanks for your opinion. Was thinking that was only on my phone.

I will try little more, probable using a dualband router and/or another cryptography like wpa2/wep (im actually on wpa-psk aes)

Just to let you know, yesterday I had to flash a new firmware (new, but official, from TIM) because beats audio screwed up my phone. Wi-fi is better now, not perfect, but I get a nice signal in every room at my house, without random disconnections.

Of course by doing so I threw warranty out of the window. It was the only option is had, though. Sound was dead and video playback as well.

If your phone will still enter download mode you can still fix it. Look through the stickies(important threads which have been given special status due to their importance and relevance) there are several that explain how to return to stock firmware. You should probably flash a full version of stock including the bootloaders as what you flashed may have contained I9100 bootloaders. But better safe than sorry.
