[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparrothead1:
Wow!! Just because someone is older doesn't mean they are dumb or slow!! I am 66 and certainly no techie. I have to stay out of the dev sections because most of the time I have no idea what they are talking about. But, I have a Captivate running AOKP Milestone 1 (currently being used as a multimedia device), my wife's Infuse running PACman, my GNote running PACman, my N7 running unofficial AOKP 4.2 and last but not least, my two year old NookColor running PA 2.9.9.....and running it very nicely!!

Get them the N7.....they will love it and will love you for getting for them. But, one word of warning.......they will probably not be happy sharing it.....so be prepared to buy another!!!!!:D:thumbup::)

If this was reply to my comment, I wasn't implying that at all, I'm just following my personal experience with my grandparents, one grandma can handle a PC for basic operations (skype, gmail, internet, office), while my other grandparents get confused by the new way then need to watch TV with the box that the cable company provided them, and they consider a good phone one that has massive keys.

I did show them the N7 the other day, and they were fascinated, they just don't really want it or don't find any use for it.

Of course, everyone's different :)

Download Groove IP from play store. It works using Google Voice and there are no fees within US and Canada. I haven't personally used it or set it up, but I plan on it once I give the Nexus 7 to my dad. If you do a youtube search you can find a video on setting it up if you have trouble.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2kbandit:
Bought a Nexus 7 32GB version yesterday and gifted it to my self. :p Overall I really do like the specs on the device and how the device handles. I was using a Kindle Fire which was running JB 4.1.2.

While the Kindle Fire was running JB smooth without any problems that I seen. I just felt like something was missing as in some features which was lacking. I since then flashed the Kindle Fire back to default and sold the device.

I can say for 100% I'm a lot more happy owning the Nexus 7 then the Kindle Fire I had. Sometimes when using voice search in order to search for something. It really makes me want to laugh at times cause I said one thing. It thinks I said 'p0rn' which was not even close to what I said.

But I won't hold that the device's fault since I do have a minor speech impediment. But them the Nexus 7 they will love the device I'm sure of it.

Hello to you all. I have a bit strange problem wich i cant find solution,so if someone could please help me? :(:(

When i try to connect my phone to 2g only it just loose signal and starts rebooting endless. Then i need to pool out sim card and switch to wcdma only and than is ok! If i put wcdma pref /gms it is working but when loss of 3g signal,it reboots and goes back on 3g. So if im in loss of 3g my phone is usselles! It only happens when trying to connect to 2g! I tryed everything but it wont stuck on 2g. I searched forum over and over before posting,but could not find this particular problem! 3g or wcdma works fine! Please someone? Thank you.

Just one thing to add if i update to ics and set to 2g only then there is no continuos reboot,and no need to take out sim, then just reboots once and goes back to 3g automaticly newhereless that it was only 2g set. What is happening here?:confused::confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Is your bootloader locked and are you on stock rom? If yes, bring it to a local service center or send it to service :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wollffy1981:
So you dont think it has any firmware or software issue? What could be wrong with the hardware? Any suggestions?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
It could be a software issue, but not on stock rom/kernel, so if you are on stock, send it to service (if it's under warranty) :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wollffy1981:
Pfff...it is not udner wrnt. And yes,stock rom and kernel. Thank you. If it's something with the motherboard what should i do? Throw it away?:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Okay, if it's not under warranty, flash for example gb stock ftf with flashtool, if this won't work, unlock the bootloader (if you have no warranty like you said), flash a custom kernel and a custom rom :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wollffy1981:
Just one more question and i wont bother you anny more! Which custom rom would you suggest to me,that is stable and also not battery eater because im on 3g all the time as you know and that is bad enough! Thank you for your answers and for taking time trying to help me!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
I would use a MIUI rom -> great functions and fast, but on unlocked bootloader (if you want to unlock) you could use cyanogenmod (9 for example) :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wollffy1981:
So just to resume and not tu bother you any more. If i am runing 4.0.2.A.062 with unlocked bootloader and custom kernel and rom, i just download miui rom and flash it with flashtool? No need for custom kernel to download or it is included with miui rom download? Sorry for all these questions,but you were only bothering to answer me so i have to ask you :):):)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
No, it's more complicated. For MIUI you needn't unlock your bootloader.

1. Root your device (how to is in the sticked rooting guide)

2. For an ics custom rom keep root to ics (how to upgrade to ics and keep rooted is in the rooting guide, too), for gb custom rom stay on gingerbread

3. You can just find a MIUI rom for locked bootloader and copy the zip to your sd card.

4. Install clockworkmod recovery (cwm) with an app like xparts (xperia parts) from playstore

5. Boot in cwm, go to backup/restore -> backup and it will backup everything (system, data, cache, only sd card won't be saved)

6. Wipe data/Factory reset

7. install zip from sd card -> choose zip -> miui.xxx.zip -> yes, install it

8. Reboot

Everything is explained in the sticked threads and in the guide how to install custom roms/kernels in my signature.

Just ask if you have questions, we like to help you, there are no silly questions (only if they are so easy to answer) :p

[HTC One X] KristianKenneth:
Hello I recently acquired an HTC One X unit. It is rooted as I received is as it is running ICS ViperX rom

I checked the CID and it gave me T-MOB005

Can I flash an official stock JB ROM on it? and how. can you recommend guides since there is a lot of guide here. I don't know where to start
[HTC One X] tomascus:
You must flash back to stock and have stock recovery and then wait for the official OTA release by T-mobile. Before you ask, NO ONE except your carrier will know the release date. You got no other choice than to wait.
[HTC One X] robchongke:
stay with viperx for the meantime.:good:
[HTC One X] arknailed7754:
Same boat as me with that cid expect it next year
[HTC One X] psyko93:
For official jb update you need to go back to stock recovery and stock room and also you should relock your boot loader.

Search for jb flasher tool and quit after relocking boot loader.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpfoxtrot:
Hi all.

My girlfriend has had the S3 for some 6 months now. The phone is not rooted, and is updated to newest firmware.

A month ago the stock gallery app started to freeze, when entering the gallery. Pictures are shown, but after that no response when trying to turn to next page or showing a pic.

A week ago the stock browser stopped showing pdf files, but only seems to be downloading endlesly.

We have tried to do a manufacture reinstall wth no luck. Firefox browser opens pdf documents with no hassle.

What to do when stock apps start to behave like this? Is there a way to uninstall and install stock apps again, without having to root the phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Stock apps are embedded ion the firmware files so apart from a factory reset or reinstall of stock firmware i would take it to a service centre .

Root has no bearing upon the problems and will not really help .

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
Hi,

Yesterday I just wanted to restore a CWM-Backup, but came from a ROM, that had no advanced power options (no choosing between "recovery" and "normal" after holding power button and touching "reboot"). So I used Rom Manager to boot into recovery (4ext touch), and used a superwipe script like "every day", Then, i dont know how, the phone turned off, (normally this script just reboots into recovery)

So I wanted to boot into recovery via bootloader by vol. down+ power button: I had have trouble with vol. rocker for 3 months or so, but always made it (with enough pressure) , to boot into bootlader. But now nothing seems to work anymore, i tried it several times but only got it booting and then freezing (caused by fullwipe). Then I removed the plastic rocker to have access to this "micro button" (dont know how to call it) and push it with a pen, but didn´t work, too. :(

So i began to research, but just found people that had problems with their plastic rocker (seems to be a very well known problem of htc ace) and not this micro buttons. And if I hadn´t full wiped it, i could boot and maybe get into recovery via adb or any apps. :crying:

So my question is: Does anyone know a solution or is there a way to get into bootloader and recovery without vol. down + power or app?

My DHD is rooted and S-OFF,of course :laugh:

THANKS IN ADVANCE !

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
SOLUTION

Hey Guys,

solved it myself with adb!!!

Tutorial

Step1: Download & Intall adb

" 2: Connect Phone (turned off) to PC via USB

" 3: open new cmd on pc

" 4. Type "adb reboot recovery" and you get into recovery ! ( and install/restore a new/backed up rom)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] na7oool:
I tried the steps to told us about it didnt work "Error : device not found"
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
Just try to reinstall adb, maybe it also could be a driver problem (?)

I first turned it off by removing the battery for 10 seconds to be sure, that it´s OFF.

Then connected the PC via USB while red notification LED flashes up (!! Be sure to use a USB 2.0 port, NOT 3.0 and NO usb-hub>typical mistake !!) and pressed windows logo on keyboard: type in searchbar "cmd", and right click on "cmd.exe" and select "Run as administrator". Then type in "adb.exe". Possible commands will show up and then type in "adb reboot recovery".

I think it´s just a driver or connection problem, nothing on the phone itself! ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] na7oool:
you are right, am facing a problem with the driver, I get the HTC sync installed good and I have the adb but I couldnt make the the pc read it as android it keeps saying its a storage device "mass storage"
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
So you are able to boot? or please tell me, what the status of your htc dhd is.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirowe:
I'm facing almost the same problem.

Adb is set right on the pc (have used it before on this phone and on other phones), usb 2.0 on the back, but phone has adb turned off due to ruu, vol down rocker completely detached.

error: device not found

So, what can I do?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
So first try to use a pen to push the micro Button.

I suppose, that you can install apps on your current Rom (?), so try "Rom Manager from market use the in-app "reboot into recovery ".
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirowe:
I only have 2 problems with that:) :

1. my volume button panel is completely detached, so I don't have any button to push

2. phone does not boot up, unfortunately it's stuck into bootloop
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
Sorry my fault, havent read your Link to your Problem description, but seems to be a very very hard-to-solve-Problem :( . The phone has so many "damages", that are connected to each other, that the new cable is maybe the only way out; and just by the way, im from Germany :D , so in my case the only thing, that worked for me was this ADB command.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirowe:
Well, the phone in question is from Germany, and I'm in Hungary right now. :)

Actually, I managed to solve almost all of the problems, except for the booting to bootloader one.

It's an easy one, if your volume button works good. :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
so whats about "adb reboot recovery ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zirowe:
A s I said: error: device not found.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans_Schlila:
Then I can't help you, sorry. I'm not a developer, but I suppose that there aren't any possible Solutions anymore... But I hope you will be able to find a way! :)

Hi. I don't think anyone understands what you mean.

Explain better, please?

Are you talking about simply moving files like movies for example from internal memory to external? Or are you talking about moving data for games from internal to external? For the latter, check out DirectoryBind. Here is a DirectoryBind guide for the Galaxy S III. It should work the same way for a Note II. Note the word should, because I haven't used it myself so I don't actually have any experience.

Unlike the current version ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.musixmatch.android.lyrify ) what comes with a player and much more features this one only shows lyrics.

I'm using poweramp with SGS. When I look for lyrics with current MusiXmatch Music will stop short time until this huge app (6 Mb) has started.

v. 2.2.0 has just about 450 Kb and starts without disturbing Poweramp.

There is nothing changed or modded, it's just an old one I found in my old backups!

IMO Primo was quiet different from ADW or Nova...
