[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveRiley:
At the time the car passed the pizza place, SoundHound 8 (infinity) was running on my phone (got the paid version on sale for 99 cents). Among others, SoundHound has these permissions:

* Location: coarse (network-based), fine (GPS)

* Network: full access

* Phone: read status and identity

I hardly use it; I forgot that I had accidentally started it several hours prior.

According to the imminently useful Logging Test App, SoundHound includes adware and logging blobs from:

* Google AdMob/AdSense

* Millennial

* Mobclix

Yes, even the paid version appears to spy on you.

<conjecture>

Given the permissions SoundHound has, it could report my phone number and location to these ad services. I would have to run a network sniffer to be sure. The pizza place could be purchasing such data from these services, which might include real-time location reports. The pizza place could randomly choose a nearby phone and push an ad for a loyalty program.

</conjecture>

I will admit I have no visibility into whether the above actually happened. I will, though, stop by the pizza place to ensure that they have no record of my phone number, to rule out that possibility. I've had the number for 12 years, and before then it was unassigned according to T-Mobile.

Just got 2 of these for our kids for Christmas... I've read that they're rooted out of the box, and found instructions to get superSu & busy box installed, but I'm wondering if anyone is doing any work outside of that? They were only $60 at Big Lots, and it's a WAY better alternative to letting the kids use our old phones which have functionalities we don't want them to have...

Thanks in advance, and if this is posted in the wrong forum, please feel free to move!

[HTC One V] FXContango:
Hi. I'm planning to restore my phone to stock, but I don't know which RUU to use. All I know about my phone is the information listed in the bootloader, which is as follows:

HBOOT-1.17.0000

RADIO-3831.17.00.18_M

anyone can tell which RUU I'm supposed to use by looking at these numbers? The phone came along with my phone plan, I'm from Singapore.

EDIT:

I just found the baseband version, it is 20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M but there is more than one RUU file on http://www.filefactory.com/f/0eafb9c43276c308/ that has the same baseband number. Which one am I supposed to use???

I installed custom rom as per the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1959545 and after that my LG pc suite is not working and hence I am not able to restore my data.. also my LG is not detecting the external SD card :( .. pls help
[LG Optimus 2x] asmerito:
About LG PC suite: probably pc sync is not installed on Rom, or you haven't updated your LG pc suite to latest version. If there is no LG pc sync on phone, you'll have to wait for official ICS.

About sd card problem, you probably forgot to create external_sd folder on internal sd.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
if it is only for files,photos and other sync related things....try using MyPhone Explorer....I have been using it since the time I bought this device....works perfect.....contacts,messages,pictures, files and all that....through wifi,bluetooth or USB

try it mate.....you dont need PC sync...which is slow (in my opinion) and also bulky....and most importantly MyPhone Explorer is simple and easy

Hope it helps

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] jjkillaz:
troubleshoot

What firmware are you on? I have read that this is a known bug for 4.0+firmwares. Did you try clearing the app cache? Has it ever worked before?

If all else fails, I recommend a complete factory reset and titanium backup for your must-have apps. If you still have the issue, it may me a bad WiFi antenna and you might want to use your warranty. Good luck and I hope its software instead of hardware.

I've been asked this a LOT and I've been meaning to do it, and I will... I just don't have much time. I get 3 days off and I spend those recording, editing, taking care of my Daughter (who has Cerebral Palsy), and doing things I couldn't do while at work. (Like taking my Daughter to Physical Therapy) Most of my time is consumed, but I do the best with what I have. I'll make this video, even if others do, as it's always nice to have more than one persons opinion on something. If 9 out of 10 people say something is the best, it's probably the best. If you listen to just the one guy that didn't like it, you'd only have his opinion.

Any way to restore it?

This same thing happened when going from Froyo to Gingerbread. Data toggles were removed. Now going from ICS which had perfectly good toggle, to JB ... we lose the toggle.

Can anyone help? Any ideas?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RobbieL811:
It was definitely there in ICS. I'm missing it too. Wish it was still there! They probably didn't want a data toggle so that you couldn't turn it off at will quickly & some of your apps would make you use more data. I used to turn it off to save battery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mellojoe:
So frustrating. Finally the manufacturer skin does something right ... and then they remove it. I used it every night.

It looks like to me they replaced it with "driving mode" in the dropdown.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lado44:
It's not just a silly inconvenience. Having all the core toggles in the notification bar was a critical go to feature and a major reason I bought the phone over competitors. There's no non-evil reason to remove this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mellojoe:
I was on a Stock, unrooted AT&T straight out of the box. I had a data toggle in the notification drop down.

Toggles:

WiFi -- Bluetooth -- GPS -- Sound -- Data -- Aiplane Mode -- Power Saving -- Sync

I think. I'm going off memory, but that seemed like it. Looks like the AT&T update swapped out the data toggle for either Screen Rotation or Driving Mode, neither of which I remember offhand.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neugenusis:
In this phone comparison I saw (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6NKFjrwOSE), at 1.06, it shows that the N4 crops some of game's screen's left & right. I can tell this is due to the soft keys taking up space.

So, subtracting the soft keys, lets say horizontal pixel count is 1270 (its much less IRL). That means in a 16:9 aspect ratio, the vertical pixel count is 714.

So I'm wondering, do the soft keys disappear when watching video and other games? I don't have a N4 yet to check. If the soft keys pernamently take up that space, does that mean all HD 16:9 video content will not play a minimum of full screen 720p (HD) on screen?... Thus would it correct to say the N4 doesn't play videos (i.e. youtube) in HD?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceCLin:
The buttons do go away for pretty much all video players. It does play video in 720p. For other kind of app, it really depends on the Dev.

I'm trying to decide on what protector to pull the trigger on, so I can have it, and a case before my n4 finally arrives.

In terms of the case I'd love the google bumper, but well... you know... So I guess I'll get some decent TPU case in the meantime.

Best Skins Ever is wet application with minimal orange peel effect, only noticeable when viewed at an angle under lighting, does not affect screen quality at all. Orange peel effect is unavoidable with wet application skins. Supposedly, there is a revised version with the proximity sensor cut out shipping now. I received the earlier version without the cutout and is in the process of having it replaced. Definitely recommend it, only issue I had was with the proximity sensor that should be fixed with the new revised version.
