[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyvram1:
Can anyone out there please explain why I shouldn't flip out when I look at all my running apps on the phone and there are like 30?? It makes me nuts and I end up rebooting phone because of it more than I should.

I know there's some kind of juggling going on to handle it..but its hard for me to give up that control coming from the PC world where every program you had running made your PC infinitely slower and eventually run out of memory.

Then click on the LBE link in my sig, use the Autostart feature to disable any user and system apps that you don't want to stay automatically. It can can also create a link to clear the ram. It required root.

Just push the multitasking button once in a while and swipe away the apps you want to kill.

(At least I've been told that kills the app)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyvram1:
WOW. i feel....really stupid. didn't know i had that feature.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crachel:
That doesn't kill them.

The apps will be killed when system resources require it. You're actually better off fully utilizing the memory than you are by constantly killing/restarting apps, which uses processor & battery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cmags:
So I've gathered from a couple threads that CM has a policy to not tether (USB or Wifi) on 4G - it drops you down to 3G. It seems that you can bypass this by running Wifi Tether for Root Users, and I've confirmed it works - 4G stays active (even if it's only maybe a meg faster than my 3G due to JB Wimax issues).

However, I can't find anything that will allow me to USB tether at 4G speeds. The built in toggle for USB tether works great (my system finds the NDIS driver fine). Anyone know of an app or even better, one with a toggle widget, that I could use to enable USB tether without dropping to 3G speeds?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flobz:
Hi every one this is my first post and was wondering if anyone has had this problem come up.

My wife has the I9000 and a couple months ago it started to show this problem of everytime the phone is in standby the screen keeps coming on or about a second or to then goes off for about a second the then on and it will keep doing this till it runs the battery down.

I have tried to do a complete ROM install fresh and factory resets and custom roms and the phone still keeps doing it. is there anything i can do or is the phone beyond fixing unless i take it apart??

Thanks

Andy
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gibraltar:
Hi,

This sometimes happens to me also. Reflashing does not seem to help.

The one thing that seemed to do any difference was to turn off the device, remove battery, sim card and SD card. Then plug them all back in and start the phone.

This sometimes worked or at least minimized the number of problems, but not a permanent solution.

Although your problem could be something completelly diferent.

No arm in trying this suggestion :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flobz:
Hi thanks for the reply.

I havd tried that. Atp the moment it has no sc card or sim card as she got a galaxy mini to use for moment and it still dose the same thing.

It is quite anoying as ya have to have it plugged into charge all time as batt drains really quickly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrippingSphere:
One possibility is a hardware problem. Maybe one of your phone's buttons (home, power, or volume) is grounded and keep on contacting.

Another possibility is a program that is running automatically. If you're on ICS or JB, you can check your running apps in Settings/Apps/Running and see if there is a running app that can be stopped without affecting the system...

Just a suggestion.

Reboot -- 4G LTE

Anyone with similar issue?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ndy4eva:
Where are you located and which carrier are you using?

It most likely due to lack of HD Voice (voice on LTE) support by the carrier. Rogers (in Canada) currently doesn't support HD voice, so it falls back to HSPA (3G) during the call and goes back to LTE.

I was hoping JB update (LK4) would support HD voice, but it doesn't, It seems to be same for iPhone 5 on Rogers.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] norbarb:
Same in ATT . just be patiance after call you get back LTE in about min or so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1Note:
If anyone has the time i would like some help on how to flash my Note without bricking the phone. Reason i ask, is because i have already bricked it!! Sent it off to mobiletechvideos.com who unbricked it so now i'm back! I love the phone alot just hate stock rom and how slow it is. I would like to use a rom that is able to overclock? I've read about the sauron rom but i can't tell if it's out dated or if there is something better now?

I'm not a noob when it comes to rom's, Htc aria, samsung captivate, inspire, then the htc one x - i've all rom'd them but now i'm stump'd. The first go around, i flashed the rom and everything went thru fine. When i booted up the phone - Nothing changed!? so i find another rom, flashed it and the phone bricked. Tried jig everything else and to no avail. So 65$ later i'm back with the stock rom and it's rooted. Anyhow, here is the info i'm sure you guys are wanting to give me a hand!

Model Number

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nutpants:
do you have a custom recovery ? like cwm or the other one ( ive only had my note a week)

i would start with that..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
If I were you (and I fully understand that I am not nor anyone else on here...) I would:

1. Install Samsung Kies and drivers to my laptop.

2. Start Samsung Kies and plug in the phone via USB cable.

3. Update the phone's OS via Kies to ICS. You won't brick it that way.

4. Give stock ICS a chance and if you still feel it's too slow for you (rolling eyes), flash a custom ROM/kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1Note:
Yep, already have clockwork mod, That's no big deal.

Sounds good sir i will give it a try - Meanwhile Anyone want to take a stab at walking me thru a rom that would work on my phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nutpants:
not that i have any idea what i am doing...

0 MAKE VERY SURE THE ROM YOU ARE FLASHING IS FOR YOUR PHONE... FORGET THE WORDS "note" or "galaxy" or anything else..

its the i717d or i 7100 or i 7000 that matters.. if in doubt dont do it..

1 download your cwm compatible rom (like blackstar or others) ( try to pick a recent rom no older than 2 months unless all the developers have jumped ship for the new phone)

( usually ends with a .zip) to your sd card)

2 use "android file verifier " ( from the market) to make sure your md5 hash of the download is prefect

( there SHOULD be a md5 someplace to verify the file download)

then by following info like whats found here.... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1584250 ( and that i copied and pasted)

boot into recovery by pressing volume up down,and power button at same time ( when your phone is turned off)

Select wipe data/factory reset and confirm

Select wipe cache partition and confirm

Select advanced - wipe dalvik cache and confirm

Select install zip from SD card

Select from internal SD card or wherever you placed it.

Select the ROM file and confirm.

rom will install

then AGAIN

Select wipe data/factory reset and confirm

Select wipe cache partition and confirm

Select advanced - wipe dalvik cache and confirm

boot up wait 5mins for it to boot.. dont touch it for 10 minutes after it boots

then

have fun..

dont forget to wonder if you bricked it during the first boot... that one takes the longest..

i have followed these directions drunk and sober when flashing over 20 times my new note i717d i got last week and im not bricked yet.

its the same system i used with my sgs2 i9100 for over a year and it still works..

but then dont think anything i have said here is right.

i could just be stupid and very lucky that i dont brick everything i touch but will not admit it.

READ A LOT, then READ more.. then ONE MORE TIME READ.. then flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1Note:
So after about 2 hours off and on, using different cables and google. No avail, UGH!

Samsung kies

Your device is not supported to update via samsung kies. Walked thru a few xda threads and they are saying update thru odin. Hell if i'm jumping ship to odin again, mine as well do a rom. I'm giving this 1 more shot, if it bricks i'll sell it lol!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
Mobiletechvideos most have had to do something extreme to repair your device, or they gave you one that.... never mind. Well, looks like you need to flash CWM and find a zip aligned ROM on here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1Note:
LOL, no they did exactly what was promised. Even people who haven't bricked their device have ran into this issue!

Okay - After reading up and then watching a video on how to flash roms. Which looked exactly like what i had done before time and time again. I'm proud to say i'm ROM'D! I'm now running the blackstar rom and it's very zippy love it to death. Would like to have tried ICS 4.0.4 but took the plunge and happy with the turn out.

I've always came to this site for help but never made an account and you guys are too nice! Hopefully i can/could help someone else out down the road. Until then i'm going to enjoy not being so slow! Thanks!:good:

Its because you have a LF6 modem. Its not the modem that GB had. The Kies upgrade only works if your phone is stock.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crencom:
I have an unlocked rooted nexus 10. I downloaded the rom file and google tools to the device. I restarted into recovery mode and cleared system, and all caches. Well since I'm stupid the rom img is not on the device and I'm stuck with no OS to boot into. I tried to reflash the stock Rom through my macbook from this link "nexus10root.com/nexus-10-unroot/how-to-unrootunbrick-nexus-10-factory-firmware/" and I get this error - error ERROR: usb_write failed with status e00002be FAILED (data transfer failure (No such file or directory))" when it tries to install the system. Is there anything else I can do? My guess is that it is not in USB debug mode since I tried a factory reset. Thanks in advance
[HTC Desire S] kajo3:
Hello,

I've tried a lot of Rom's and ViperSaga is my Fav.

But I can't get the live Wallpapers to work. When i set one the whole Launcher starts to lagg and is really slow.

With Virtuous Infinity and Fallout they work like charm.

Anyone know this problem and how to fix it? Since in the ViperSaga-Thread no one else posted this and I'm not allowed to post there, maybe someone can help me here.

Another question is, did i understood that correct, that they won't update Virtuous Ininity anymore?

Because it's so fast and smooth! I always get 4600+ Points in Antutu Benchmark (w/o SD)

For any other Rom the highest result where around ~4300

is it similar for you?

Don't use the viper saga cpu tweaks, they don't hold at the moment. Try a third party app and oc to 1.2, setcpu will be fine,

Restoring IMEI

1. Connect phone by USB

2. Activate USB debug mode

3. Enter 3845#*920# in dialer if that doesn’t work try 3845#*925#

4. Select Port Settings -> Select CP Image Download

5. A new device should appear at let it install

6. Open Tutty and select serial protocol. Click on open

7. Type AT if response is not OK, change port number (it is possible that when typing you don’t see any letters)

8. Type at%imei, it should display a dummy IMEI

9. Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x where x,x,x... is your orginal IMEI number (found under the battery of your phone). It should response IMEI WRITE OK

10. Reboot phone

I have the same problem only my phone never lets me type anything at all into putty, but just like you no new device shows and it always goes back to cp usb.

But when is this project going to be merged with CM? There are LOTS of creature comforts (e.g. silence during night hours, T9-style contact search, etc.) that I'm used to with the CM-optimized version that I kinda miss and only noticed that it was gone when I flashed it (I was under the impression that those features were all standard?)
