Hi

My samsung galaxy ace s5830 model is bricked.

I was trying to install rom manager, clockwork rom.

I have tried to use Vol down+home+power button, its not letting me into recovery mode.

The screen is totally blank :(

Please let me know what can be done.

Thanks in advance..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jumper62:
Try download mode.

Recovery mode doesnt require pressing vol down, just home and power
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeltingSnowman:
If you used Rom Manager App to install something you bricked your phone. If not access to recoveri is Power + Home

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talboy:
HI guys,

I just recieved a call from EE in the UK telling me that because i have bought a compatible LTE handset they would like to send me the 4g sim card so that i can use the 4G network..

Now i bought my Galaxy note 2 on release day before EE was launched.. and i am certain that there is a LTE version of the galaxy note..

I explained this to the guy on the phone who said that the phone registered was LTE by phones for u when i bought it...

My handset is the GT-n7100...

They have said that i can match my current contract but at 4g speeds for no extra cost...

Has anyone else had a call from EE and does anyone know what on earth they are talking about? will n7100 work on the UK EE LTE network?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
The N7100 is the international 3G model.

These guys just read from a script... don't expect them to know anything about phones!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleebus.jones:
There's no LTE hardware in the 7100.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ionutzm05:
That's weird. Vodafone RO keeps telling me that GT-N7100 is 4G compatible, I know it itsn't. However, GSMArena is also saying that :

HSDPA, 42 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps; LTE, Cat3, 50 Mbps UL, 100 Mbps DL
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pneste:
It is 4G compatible in some countries just not on EE in UK.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E_Goldstein:
Beware very very careful op ee are playing very naughty games atm trying to get new customers there even offering to buyout new contract holders. And the n7100 will not work on 4G in the UK despite what any network says.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talboy:
I have told them to send me the sim and move my contract over, when it arrives and I cannot get on the 4G network i will call them in a blind rage and hopefully they will send me the actual LTE note 2 as compensation..

I told the guy about 5 times that the handset doesnt support LTE he just said the one i have based on imei number does.. obviously has no idea what he is talking about...

ill keep you posted when the sim comes!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vash_h:
If I'm u I'll just get the lte compatible sin card. No extra charges. If u can connect to lte, u lucky devil. If no, no harm in trying. Perhaps they would even change a lte compatible note 2 for u.. lol. Wishful thinking though..

Sent From my Samsung Note 2 GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AjunNg:
Wow, can they call me as well?

I want to switch to EE as long as they buy out my contract!

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
I just got the TF300 with a keyboard dock. I'm wondering if it's possible to power it on from the keyboard instead of having to reach over to the power button to wake it up everytime it goes to sleep?

I see the lock button that lets me put it to sleep, but oddly it does not work in reverse like I expected.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
That is weird that disabling that feature is suppose to save power. Seems like the opposite would be true. Being able to turn my screen on easier will mean I'll turn it off more frequently, thusly saving power. I had bumped up my screen time to 5 minutes so I didn't have to reach for the power button so frequently.

Thanks.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike-y:
probably because it has to keep the keyboard "on" so it can listen for key presses that would wake up your tablet. If you don't use it to wake your tablet, it can turn the keyboard dock completely off, thus saving some battery power.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sreeman:
Guys i did something to my phone and now its pretty roasted.

Tried to RSD back, but it just does not work. Tried like 2-3 xml files, but none flas properly.

I downloaded SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-73_SPU-11-M1-2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml AND SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-73_SPU-11-M1-2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml and both failed. i keep getting the infopreflashs validation failure when RSD-ing some of it, namely the logo and devtree?

my phone is pretty useless now, and i have no idea how do i get back on track. i was on flick, and tried to upgrade to the newer flick 5.0 but something happened and i lost root access. they asked me to RSD back to stock and flash again.

Am i RSD-ing the wrong file or something?

Please please please...help :(

Noob question - been digging for help. I dunno, maybe not using right search parameters. Here's the problem: This past week, an intermittent weirdism - when I go to app manager 'settings' stops. (It's not intermittent anymore!!)

I can use any other function in settings, just not app mgr - app mgr will open, then stop after 5sec. I'm cleaning things up because down to just over 1.5g mem and not rooted (no cpu available). I have Lookout Premium. I've removed CDE (3rd party encyclopedia from Amazon app store), and optimized/defragged. Trying to get the other junk off - that's the thing - regardless how I get to it (play store, stock mgr, et al) default pop up 'settings' has stopped. I've done only what I know (restart, power off/restart, battery pull) but don't know anymore. What the blooming blazes have I done? Where? Can someone help? Don't know what else to do. Thanks guys.

Hey everyone

i was wondering how to play youtube videos on the background so i can multitask. Right now if i play a video on youtube i have to stay on that video for it to be playing.

I wanna listen to music from youtube while im reading a book, since i dont ever download songs to my nex 7.

My friend can do it with his iphone 5, i saw him playing a song from youtube while his phone was locked.

Any ideas? Or am i missing an app or aomething?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Xcutionr:
FREEdi YouTube Player

I use the YouTube Player by FREEdi. Here's the link for the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsInR3LmNvbS5mcmVlZGkueW91dHViZS5wbGF5ZXIiXQ..

It works great! There's an iOS version too, just in case you have an iOS device. :D

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] qsdf55:
You can install BSplayer that allow you to reduce vids in a small pop up who keeps playing while you're doing something else with your phone...
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Flukester69:
This is great info, be nice if Youtube natively supported playing in the background like Tunein Radio. I'll give this a go later on too.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] CarsnGadgets:
Another option is StickIt:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS5teWJveWZyaWVuZGlzYWdlZWsuc3RpY2tpdCJd

it gives you pop up windows you can resize and place over other apps or keep on your homescreen.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lch920619x:
Hey guys this is just a tiny spark in my mind and I think it wouldn't hurt to share it with you.

My thought is to implement the QS in the multitasking panel.

It's simple:

1,Tap the multitasking soft button to invoke the multitasking panel;

2,The panel is showing recent apps from bottom to top, so if you want to look for your apps, you scroll up;

3,On the other hand, a QS panel is hiding below the multitasking panel, so if you scroll down directly, it will come out.

If you find it difficult to understand, I've made two very rough pictures to elaborate this.

I think this is a better way to toggle setting quickly with minimum effort, afterall I find it very wired and unnatural to do a double-finger pull down. It's also easier to tap on the button on the lower part of the screen rather than stretch your finger all the way to the top of the huge screen.

However I don't know nothing about coding, so what do you think? Is there a chance that this will be implemented in some 3rd party ROMs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b1337:
thats a pretty good idea, im not the hugest fan of the current tablet style qs.

Can I buy it from eBay? And if so how could I do it?

Do you know how to do that?
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
ah, I was thinking the back! You can get coloured screen protectors which are pretty much the same effect
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hairdewx:
One of the issues with using Netflix in multi-window is that the player pauses when its window loses focus. With this "trick" we can make the Netflix player think the focus was not changed. Thanks to tarheeldan for sharing his experience with it.

It's really very easy.

1) Load Netflix and another app you want to use in multi-window.

2) Play a movie/tv show. While the player is loading, touch the other window to bring it into focus.

3) The video should play while you have full control of the other window.

Of course touching the netflix window will bring it back into focus and pause it again when you leave it. Just repeat the steps above to make it stop pausing again.

I'm including a build of Netflix I modified to add portrait and rotation support if you want it:

Netflix 2.1.0 build 725 - http://goo.gl/cx8IS

This build will not detect market updates, though. I'm using this build, so I'll probably manually update versions occasionally.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Awesome! Can't wait to try this later. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Its TwiX:
The app was already added in the non rooted add apps to multi-window, but I appreciate the tip!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mercerudy:
Your portrait mod of the Netflix app works perfectly! Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I jumped in when Shabby's host cut him off after cmupdater appears to have gone crazy and ate up a ton of bandwidth. But overall I was planning on being out of hosting for developers by the end of the year so its rather temporary. There were a couple other offers brought up at the time so those might still be on the table.

I offered to take the 10 bucks someone donated and chip in and get him a domain and 1 year of hosting over at that horrible company 1&1 but it was doing the job before and it will suffice again.

Phantom is busy working on something and isn't giving me any clues so I dunno what to do. Jan 1st I need to redirect cmupdater requests to another server, question is where. Projected usage this month is 3 TB, pretty low demand with an average of about 60 GB a day at the moment.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
What about AndroidFileHost? I'll also check with rwilco12 as I think he may have another suggestion.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Well whatever is used needs to have ftp uploading and the abillity for a program to directly access a file with no website, waiting or anything inbetween as cmupdater reads directly from a file on the server. Now Chris said something about people using goo.im for cmupdater but unless someone wants to explain that I cant say hey go use this or that see ya. Needs to work out of the box with no fiddling for the most part.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
I know he already has a goo... what about dev host?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Dev Host will have a limit of 20GB of file storage. AFH won't.

I'm checking on that now but may have to wait until I get home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Once again with these hosts can you direct link to a file? cmupdater is going to point to whatever.whatever.com/whatever/api and if the file is not delivered right away then it will not work. Put it to you this way whatever I turn him over to has to work. 1/1/2013 I am going to redirect the links there and if it doesnt work, CM10 nightlies = bye bye until someone figures it out. Any real host works fine, anything that works like a file sharing site might not I cant just shove this into a corner and say sorry about your luck.

I contacted one guy who had a dedicated server as well before see what he says. Shabby is still combating high usage after the fact and well maybe I shouldnt have gotten back in only to have to say bye at the end of the year.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocket321:
I'm sure folks appreciate you jumping in, if only for a temporary fix. This at least gives a little time to get it figured out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
+1

Take it easy, Rain :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I was going to carry on a bit longer just for Phantom but the current and predicted load mean increased operating costs in the future and I just don't have it in me. So I had to make the decision to help him on to the next spot. I wish I could carry on.

Don't worry all current builds (11/26 and up) I can redirect to the new server so none of the builds that can see updates now will be left in the dark.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I have used Dreamhost in the past. No complaints for the price but we didn't have much traffic. Very easy to get up and running.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Yeah but unless someone has a dreamhost account to donate. Its a matter of there is no money coming out of his pocket. I don't want to start an account on something and have to deal with closing it out after a year to everyone's disappointment.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Sent inquiry to AFH admin... will let you guys know what the result is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AndroidFileHost:
Will be glad to try and set something up with you. Will email you shortly

Currently have 7 Servers in 5 States with a combined bandwidth of over 800TB of BW allocated each month :) Sure I can fit ya in somewhere :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I sent you a PM RepinSpor. Assuming this will work for you as well I will pass along the small donation that was given to me by one of his supporters. Hopefully the hosting will draw you in a little more support as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tek818:
I'm good irl friends with the devhost owners. I'll see what I can do...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AndroidFileHost:
Recieved thanks. Sorry for the delays in responding. Work is a bit hectic today. I will gladly work with you and the others to insure you updater works on our servers and can shoot out the nightlies to everyone :)

In addition to AFH i also host nightlies and other sites for developers so this shouldn't be a problem :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Alright thanks man and no rush. Have a couple weeks before the end of the year :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] amiah:
Hello,

I use to own a X7501, and purchased a used one recently. Now I remember Michy WM6.1 being the fastest and most stable, but all the links in every thread seems to be dead. They all refer to Megaupload, which is gone, and Rapidshare deleted their files. I also searched for hours on Google, but they're nowhere on the web. I'm afraid version 6.5 roms will be too slow. It's sad because Michy did such a great job with those versions. I wish XDA archived some of those on their FTP. It's a real loss.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] stavrosfrantzis:
No problem!!!

I have that rom and lots of them,but the problem is I don't know how to upload them to share them with everyone.Do you know how?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] B-44:
Upload them at 4shared.com or mediafire.com and post the downloadlinks given there.

I have the T-Mobile s3 with cm10 if it makes a difference. I have gotten the WiFi tether app to work Just fine on my computer by using the WiFi tether by treve app and changing the user agent on my browser to a tablet. but what id like is to tether my ps3 to my phone. my kid has an easier time watching Netflix on it instead of the computer. I've searched and searched but every method I've seen won't work on the ps3. anybody out there know how it can be done? thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
Download an app called easy tether. Done deal
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wrecksa:
if you mean hook the ps3 into the computer via Ethernet cable and share the connection using the easy tether app I've tried that. doesn't work. unless I'm doing something wrong. this method worked fine for my Sprint evo so I don't think I'm doing it wrong. if it works for you maybe you could write me a step by step on how to do it? using easytethers instructions did not work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Well thats um uh.. not "normal" behavior, or easily done.. You need to have a relative knowledge of networking to achieve this. Is it impossible? Absolutely not, its quite easy once you know what youre doing.. I cant explain it all, as it would take forever to type detailed instructions, but i can tell you this:

You MUST use what is called an Ethernet Crossover cable. I make them myself but they are easily found and cheap (depending on length) on ebay.

You plug one end into the PS3 ethernet port, other end into computer ethernet port.

On computer, you have to bridge the WiFi (or whatever connection has full internet access) with the Ethernet port that has the crossover cable attached..

However, the easy way to do it would simply be purchasing a VPN and setting it up on your phone to use the purchased VPN then T-Mobile cant detect what sort of traffic is going across your phone. I know some services over cheap VPN for like 60 a year with unlimited bandwidth and data usage. (I use a free one for my PS3 as after so many Megs they limit your bandwidth but the PS3 uses like none for gaming, would be a different story for Netflix though)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
Forgot I have the paid version... which allows such a connection. Lol

I have been able to do this for a long time tho with no issues
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wrecksa:
I have the paid version as well. are you using a crossover Ethernet cable? That would explain why it's not working. I have little knowledge of networking but I can usually work my way through instructions.
[HTC Droid DNA] nicodemayo:
I've always been a big fan tpu of cases, and the Cruzerlite cases have always been some of the nicest quality ones. I called them yesterday to see when they are supposed to be up for sale and they told me in the next day or so. Woke up this morning and they were up. I ordered 3 for the price of two with the coupon code "b2g1". Not sure how I feel about there being cutouts where the volume rocker and power button is. I like the raised volume buttons on my verizon tpu case ive been using as my temp. I guess I'll let you guys know. These are pretty cool looking cases. Since I'm a new poster, I cant post the link, but maybe someone else will.
[HTC Droid DNA] FlipMarc:
Here's the link :) http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/htc/dna/androidified-a2-tpu-case-for-htc-droid-dna
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
I posted this little review on Amazon, too.

I have been using this case for a couple of days now (the green one). At first glance, it is a sharp looking case. I love the Android mascot on the back cover, it gives a bit of style/uniqueness to the case. However, I could see how some might think it is a bit ostentatious for a phone case. The case itself is clear and tinted in the color specified in the description but the Android on the rear is a solid color (although the clear tinted areas darken significantly once the phone is in the case). And yes, the rear notification light does shine through very visibly (at least on my green one).

The case in pretty thin and does not add as much bulk as most other cases but it still feels solid/reliable. There are little ribbed strips on either side to make the phone easier to grip which is a nice feature as TPU cases can feel slippery to me sometimes. There are cutouts for all the major points of the phone (rear speaker, camera, headphones, etc.).

One drawback is that the buttons do not have molded/raised areas to assist in pressing them. Instead, there are simply cutouts where the buttons are. This wouldn’t normally be an issue but considering the DNA’s buttons are excessively recessed, they can be difficult to press with the raised case around them. Also, the headphone cutout might be too small for headphones with a large plug.

I also have a Diztronic TPU case and, for me, I feel like that one might protect the phone a little better. However, it also adds much more bulk to the phone (compared the Androidified) and does not have the style of the Cruzerlite. Overall, especially for the price, I think the Cruzerlite Androidified A2 is a pretty solid choice if you’re looking for a TPU case.

I got the JB update OTA notification, but the installer balked because I had modified the Swype.APK.

I've restored the original Swype.APK. Is there any way for me to get the OTA update to attempt to reinstall itself?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
The modified app shouldn't be the issue, its the recovery. To have it work, you'd have to flash stock recovery, then re-root; you're better off flashing a custom jb rom or the stock with root access rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] IBNobody:
I'm running stock recovery. The update errored out because of the Swype.APK, and it even listed it as the cause of the error.

I'd like to just restart the update because it would be easier than ODIN'ing and then using Triangle Away to reset the counter.
