Hello. Awhile back my usb cable became temperamental, so i ordered a sweet 7.5 foot super long Samsung brand cable, but today I found my old one and decided to try to fix this one. There are many reasons cords become temperamental, we'll really two main reasons.

1: wires inside the cord break

2: the tip does something weird.

How I fixed the second problem was i unplugged the cable and used needle nose pliers to slowly and carefully squeeze the metal sides of the microUSB tip together a bit the reason is because the contacts in the phone were not connected to the usb contacts when the tip was pushed down. This should fix the temperamental microUSB tip.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, so just move it if it is wrong :D I figured it should go here because it relates to all devices not just mine.

Basically I've got a Nexus (S) on my hands that I want to flash back to stock but my power button isn't working so I can't select to do anything in bootloaders and such. I'm wondering if there's a way to do it purely through commands or something, or if I'm just going to have to stick with it as it is?

Never really looked into doing it like this, so wasn't sure where I should be looking :) Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] Guitarman:
Hello there :) There is a simple app found on Google Play (probably other places as well) called "Quick Boot" that allows you to reboot the device into recovery or boot in a different bootmode. No power button required! I've used the app on this old Samsung Froyo phone and a tablet, worked good on both devices. Hope that helps you

That does look helpful :D Thanks for the help!

As far as I can see getting into bootloader mode is all I really need, so thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miahmad:
Hello, abit of a newbie here.

I have siyah installed and I currently have the cm10 nightly rom installed as my primary rom.

I noticd the latest jellybean update has been just released,(I9300XXELKC_I9300OXXELK4_I9300XXELKC_HOME.tar)

Can I somehow install this as a secondary rom??
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
I think it could be possible if we get the source, and compile it with smartguy's kernal, we could get a build up and running, or maybe a version of CM6, just saying, I'm a fan of it and honeycomb eventhough it's slow.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] tazmaniondvl:
Not likely, I don't think there is enough people that would use it.... Sorry

Honeycomb is not open source
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] sidthegreatest:
Honeycomb was made made open source around the time ICS was released...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
I knew that from the beginning, that's why I was asking. What about CM6? I know Tim is working on it for me, because I asked him if he could.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] N3Ti:
Just out of curiosity... why are you fan of cm 6 and honeycomb?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
No answer? I just like it and I have never tested either on the Exhibit, and I figured if I asked someone about it I would get an answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] N3Ti:
What do you like about it? For example I like expandable notification on jellybean or cm10
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
I like the looks of CM6 and honeycomb, well I've never used it, I just wanna test it for once, but the real deal, not some crap launcher from the Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] N3Ti:
There was no separate honeycomb source. It was merged into ICS source with comments. Honeycomb was tablet only ui. ICS combined tablet and phone ui. If you want

to try native tablet ui (not just launcher) try pacman rom. It has tablet ui for gapps.

Cm 6 was based on froyo and has less features than gingerbread. Ginger bread improved android a lot and made it modern and compititive mobile os. It improved memory management and newer apis. That is why many applications are 2.3 + Please Google if you want more details.

Windows phone is closed source os and legally requires license run on phone. That is why you will not see ports here on xda on non windows phone. On the other hand android being open source can you run on windows phone e.g. HTC HD 2.

Assuming you have been here for while and seeing your posts on porting and building from source I can only hope that op wasn't for trolling.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
That explains alot.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] bpear96:
If you like the look of Froyo, you could install the cm7 port i saw somewhere around here, and install this theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1014773 apparently it makes cm7 look just like Froyo.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cmason37:
Froyo just seems worthless sorry but it just does. Honeycomb actually could be possible. Honeycomb did have a phone ui. But who would actually go through all the effort?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
I would. e.e
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] AkiroX:
Then do it? I'd love to run Honey on this phone... It'd look cool as hell... x3
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
Exactly. No one gets it! .-.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] tazmaniondvl:
I'll run honeycomb, if you port it I'll definitely give it a try, but please add oc to it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] IRX120:
How exactly do you plan to port it????? There's no source, it was merged to ICS, there is no "honeycomb branch" you could try and port, but our phone has a 480x800 screen, no honeycomb device had this low of a resolution

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superkoolkat2:
Does the note 1 (n7000) have the same picture editor capabilities as the note 2(N7100) ? Thinking of getting one as a gift but the deciding factor is the photo editor. Id rather buy a cheaper note 1 if possible.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmwitz:
You can download any number of photo editing apps from the market that will blow the stock ones out of the water. And I am not talking about apps that just supply a zillion filters.

Googles latest Snapseed is excellent. As are PicsPlayPro, Aviary, PicSayPro, Pixlr Express, AfterFocus, EasyFocus, TouchRetouch…the list is long.

If you are serious about android photo editing, manipulation and retouching go with the Note II. I did.

Hopefully someone help help me outta this jam I just got. So I am currently rooted and s-off. Running on 1.58 Hboot and ROM and wanted to go to an AOSP. Copied the file I needed to go over to 1.4 to my root. Went to Bootloader and successfully downgraded to 1.4. Problem now is that I was on a 1.58 rom so now it will not boot, and everytime I try to go to recovery it just wants to go to bootloader and upgrade again. I cant delete the 1.4 upgrade file!! Please help!!

[Focus General] Nevermore.V:
I was installing a new windows 7.8 ROM [dynamics one] on my phone, over the current custom 7.8 rom..

Did the usual stuff, installed magldr clicked on samsung focus and it showed successful. Then installed the rom.

Then not letting it reboot, formatting first. But when the format finished it showed "SAMSUNG OMNIA 7" for second and got me pretty worried.

Its not turning on now, Samsung logo appears for a moment and then it goes blank. Then the phone to pc connection image shows up. Thats al.

Ive tried reinstalling the magldr with clicking on focus but still no change.

I'm pretty sure I did it right the first time around but don't know what happened.

Have I bricked my phone or what? Please suggest something asap.

Mine is a sim unlocked AT&T Samsung focus 1.3

It does go to download mode and format options

i suggest you to read the dynamics 2.0 thread carefully

[Focus General] zero32k:
Hi, my friend has experienced this before, don't worry about Samsung Omnia 7, its just a label, the rom is already mod for Focus.

You should try reflashing the dynamic 2.0 rom again. Make sure your battery level is above 50%, after it finish flashing, it will take something like 10-15 more mins to finish setting up the rom so just don't touch anything on your phone yet. Just wait for the windows phone setup screen to show up first then reset your phone storage.

However now my PC will not recognize the phone. When I boot the phone it boots into Devil recovery, however there is no ROM on my internal memory, so I cannot flash anything. I can't mount my external card, it says failed or error, and mounting USB storage does nothing because the computer doesn't recognize the phone.

Hello People,

Let me begin by stating that I am very very new to Android rooting and custom roms (actually, this is my first time ;) ).

I have a SGS2 i9100G. I have attached the screenshot of my phone software details. I have searched on the internet and XDA but am unable to find or maybe understand how to root my device and install CyanogenMod 10 (JB 4.1). Whenever I reach a post which seems like the way to root my device, it talks about firmwares and modems which are different than what my phone has.

I would be very very greatful if someone can sort this for me and provide some links and steps on how can I successfully root my phone and install CM10 (JB 4.1). Thanks a lot already as I know people will start replying in no time :)

Just connected my camera to my nexus 10, I was very surprised that I could see the photos in the stock gallery. Is there a way to mount a USB stick as a camera ? because I would like to see photos on my USB stick in my gallery instead of viewing/importing them with "nexus media importer"

Ps: I don't want to root my nexus

Without Root , thats not possible mate, Unless you try the nexus media importer

Hi guys

Since I updated to 4.2.1 from 4.1.2(galaxy nexus yakju) , I cant see my sim settings , before there was an icon for sim settings in the menu.

can someone tell me if it needs to be enabled from somewhere or can be accessed ?

Edit:

I installed 4.1.2 back and I can see it, its sim toolkit , if someone can answer me it will be helpful thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahsanali.pk:
Are you talking about getting the settings for SIM Security..?

I found them in Settings> Security> Setup Sim Card lock.

the other Sim Settings like Call forwarding etc are accessible through Dialer's Settings.

No my friend, I have attached a screen shot the setting I am talking about.

I assume no one uses the sim toolkit to do anything.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
On both gnex and nexus 4 my sim toolkit is there. Running on 4.2.1. All I did was to enable the sim lock. I read it somewhere here that it's supposed to be a security thing so if your sim lock is disabled, it won't show. Try it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volors:
Well I did what you guys suggested ,still no luck ,I just checked my friends phone who is on 4.2.1 , he has sim toolkit , but he did OTA updates , and I downloaded the ROM from google website.

I cant understand why I can see it on 4.1 but not on 4.2.1, and the ROM is also stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volors:
Thanks for your help guys I figured it out , you have to enable / disable the airplane mode then you can see the sim toolkit but its unusable when I click on it , it just keeps on loading. so I think there is something wrong with it in the stock rom as a lot of users have reported it.

Thanks

The pro version is worth the money. It allows batch backup/restore. The free version makes you restore one app at a time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
Another endorsement of Titanium Backup Pro. And if you are going to buy it the better deal is to buy it direct from the Titanium Backup website. The advantages are:

- The price is lower than on the Play store ($5.99 vs $6.58)

- The license is provided in the form of a key file that you are allowed to use on all of your devices. (not tied to a single Play store login).

Buy it and support the developer!
