[Nexus 4 General] nivlac978:
I don't know if anyone else has this problem but when I hold my phone with my pinkie supporting the bottom, the bezel flexes and makes an audible and annoying clicking noise. All I did to fix it was loosen the screws like 1/8 of a turn. They were just a hair too tight.
[Nexus 4 General] ugotproblemz:
what tools did you use? cuz i dun have the screwdriver for it....an alternative maybe?
[Nexus 4 General] aimetti:
was wondering if anyone else was having this issue.

mine does the same thing. annoying creak and spongey feel.
[Nexus 4 General] ugotproblemz:
mines just makes the noise
[Nexus 4 General] konfuzed:
mine is on top left corner lol D:
[Nexus 4 General] AntonJart:
I did it a bit different. I loosened up the screws, pressed glass down and pressed bezel into the phone, and then screwed the screws back just as they were before
[Nexus 4 General] Jtaks:
I have the same creaking noise and slight flexing. There also seems to be a little bit of separation between the silver part of the screen and the soft touch plastic side. I'll have to try AntonJart's solution and see it that works.

It looks like a T8 Screwdriver (or one of the T series anyways, not quite sure what size yet.) You can get them at a hardware store, but any size smaller than a T10 is kinda hard to find.
[Nexus 4 General] ptesmoke:
its a T5. only in precision sets.
[Nexus 4 General] paulbeattie:
Tightened up a little at both sides and there is still movement but no more clicking noise.
[Nexus 4 General] umesswitme:
Mine creaked on the bottom right, I sent it back to Google it had a few other little niggles but my replacement is perfect.
[Nexus 4 General] hiimtirak:
Thanks for the trick, it worked for me. ;)

You sir have sorted out my problem! I had this issue and was the only real fault with the device, unscrewed a bit to help didnt work so assumed I had to live with it, glad I found this thread and I cannot believe I didnt think to push the glass to, I thought my device was missing a support!.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] phelony:
So I called Sprint because I don;t use Sprint voicemail and every reboot the stupid voicemail icon pops up none the less.

I have been able to make it go away by force stopping the phone service....

Sprint is unable to make it stop do you have any suggestions....

I have no voicemail and I don;t even use Sprint Vm I use Google Voice

Having said that The sprint rep kindly informed me that I am not on the latest firmware....

I am infact on the latest firmware but rom'd up....

I didn't of course say that but it begs to question... How is sprint monitoring this and is there something I can kill to stop there invasion of my privacy?

My first thought was carrier IQ but wasn't that removed sometime ago for bad press? \

any thoughts guys?

Are you running anything other then touchwiz?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xTmDarren:
I believe they truthfully don't have very many permission and can not see much of anything.. Basically to my knowledge they can see your rom, and do small updates to get your phone back on track.. Maybe someone that works for sprint can confirm or deny this..

also on a side note.. Sprint doesn't care anymore if your on a custom rom or if your rooted.. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSocalGuy79:
Lol well I can say with every sprint phone I've had when I had any issues and would call them they would always say I need to update my firmware. Most of the time they are guessing. Is there anyway you can use titanium backup to just freeze sprint voicemail?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Dalmus:
They can get basic diagnostic information about your phone. For example, the upper-level phone techs can see what PRL you are running and force updates. I have witnessed this with our devices at work.

Never asked if they could see the actual name of the ROM, but I don't see why they wouldn't be able to see most of the info in the About Device: Status area.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LordLugard:
Why not just uninstall the Sprint Voicemail app? It's the first thing i always do. I have my voicemails going to Google Voice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
When you update profile it sends the about phone info to the network to improve communication between the device and towers. All they can see is the same info shown in About Phone and Status menus. The info is IMEI, MIN, build#, PRL, phone#, signal strength, baseband all the generic device info in those menus. There's nothing private there that sprint doesn't already know due to them needing it for you to have an account except for the rom info which really doesn't matter much. Its not like they can see all of you pr0n you downloaded unless they want to go back and check your IP logs.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ou2mame:
like someone else said, just uninstall sprint voicemail.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] phelony:
I did this one is hooked into the phone apk somehow. it only comes back on each reboot and when i get app info it pulls up info for phone and if i force stop phone its gone till next reboot

I did still persists

Ya they creep me out. Sprint has no buisiness knowing I am rom'd up

I froze already I believe I may have even force removed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Speedin07si:
The reason I ask if your running cm or aokp. I knew back on the og epic 4g the "phantom" voicemail was a issue with the early cm and aokp builds.

Idk if that's still a issue with the gs3, I love touchwiz to much to give it up.

@TS

Did you do a factory reset in a custom recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Assuming you have a custom recovery, you could try the following:

- boot into recovery

- push a rom (for instance: the CM version you have installed) to your /sdcard/ using adb

- flash it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irizwan:
If you have the toolkit install (found in the dev sec.) its gonna be a breeze to flash another rom or the stock nexus image
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
No idea why they stuck the toolkit on the dev section, it's nothing related to dev.........

And stop using the toolkit, at least learn how it works:

Just because i recommended the toolkit to a new user cause itll be easier for him doesnt mean i dont know how it all works thanks for the link btw very informative

[HTC Droid DNA] justice_beaver:
I have been an iPhone 4 user for about two years now, and am getting extremely bored with iOS. I just want more out of an OS!!

I have my upgrade coming in a few days and I have decided to go with the HTC Droid DNA, I saw the phone in a Verizon store and it looked/felt awesome!

I had my iPhone jailbroken whenever I could, and am definitely curious about unlocking/rooting/flashing and all the other terms used with an Android. I have been searching all over this forum and a few other sites to try to get familar with the whole process. It definitely seems alil overwhelming at this point, but I have learned alot form reading post and watching videos on here.

Look forward to learning more and if I can build up the courage, root this phone.

Thanks for everyones contributions and hardwork on this site, really is amazing. :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] holla420:
It is a bit different I had a galaxy nexus and man that was so damn easy to unlock root and flash whatever the hell I wanted. This is easy I got the hang of it in hours. Just keep reading up and looking at videos
[HTC Droid DNA] rexdog1888:
Just in case you get frustrated at first, it'll get slightly easier if/once we get s-off
[HTC Droid DNA] justice_beaver:
I have been seeing "s-off/s-on" in many different threads and was not able to figure out what that means. Care to share?? :confused::)
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
It stands for security on or off. If you are s off it makes your life so much easier, but you can still do many things with s on
[HTC Droid DNA] MustafaHadaKing:
Gratz on getting an DNA, lot more customization than Ann iPhone, it's a decision you won't regret
[HTC Droid DNA] jiwengang:
Welcome to Android.

And just a few words, if you care to consider:

DO NOT TRY TO ROOT IT IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST ANDROID MAIN DEVICE.

If it is a main device, don't try to root it at first. Enjoy something "out-of-box" first. And most importantly, give yourself some time to get familiar with all those fancy sometimes confusing terms before you actually get hands on and root the thing.

Many times folks gets too excited and jumped into the pool immediately only to find that they did not bring safety with them and brick their device.

It is a 600 USD device after all. Enjoy the out-of-box experience first!

Try to become a power user before getting to rooting/modding/theming stuff. The fun will be exponential. =)
[HTC Droid DNA] justice_beaver:
Thanks for the advice, think I will go this route. I am definitely not comfortable yet trying to root/unlock. I will just enjoy the Android OS until I do some more research.

Thanks for your help!!
[HTC Droid DNA] drumz0rz:
Yeah, honestly, Jelly Bean + Sense 4+ are great enough that if I were you, I'd get comfortable with the phone before rooting. Spend time going through all of the settings and figuring stuff out. You'll notice that even without root you'll have TONS more control than you did on your iPhone.

The Google Play store isn't as great as Apple's, but there are tons of really great apps out there. For example, I've been using Handcent SMS exclusively for sms/mms and I love it. You can customize the look and feel in that app in a way you never possibly could on an iPhone. I also highly recommend an alternate keyboard, my personal favorite is Swype. Just sliding my thumb to type makes life so easy. SMS Backup & Restore is another good one, especially once you root and start trying out custom ROMs.

Rooting will give you full system access, and so it'll allow for more powerful applications. For example, IMO the best reason to root is for recovery and backup. You can create full images of your phone (to restore if anything goes wrong) as well as backing up all your apps (with their data). Also, when rooted you can easily block all ads which is very nice.

S-off prevents writing to the system's memory (other than when connected to your computer via a developer terminal) so that holds back what you can really do in terms of custom ROMS and root apps.

a custom ROM is basically a modified operating system. Usually with new phones, the first ROMs you'll see are "debloated" or just the stock with unwanted parts removed. After that you'll start to see the developers really show off their skills and start customizing the look and feel, tweaking the performance, and writing new features. Sometimes you'll go as far as devs pushing newer versions of Android than are available from Verizon (like Liquid's ICS for the HTC Thunderbolt which still runs Gingerbread).

Oh, and if you're confused by all the food talk, Google names their Android released after Desserts alphabetically. We're currently on J (Jelly Bean 4.1,4.2), which follows Ice Cream Sandwhich (4.0), Honeycomb (3, for tablets) and Gingerbread (2.3).
[HTC Droid DNA] coyote81:
This is a really helpful post man thanks. I I am a 2year iPhone 4 user as well. Always jailbroken, loved tweaking and the extra control it would give me. I had a Motorola Xoom FE TABLET with Honeycomb. I never played on it so I sold it. But I did like the Os, rooted my daughters DROID 3. But never got into anything besides that. I also looking forward to Rooting this and doing all sorts of tweaks.
[General Questions and Answers] Yunzip:
This a general question about apdating custom roms...

In cwm there is an option 'Update from sd' or something like that... What does it do?

Plus, If i have a rom installed into my phone, like for example a Version 1 of the rom. Do I have to wipe everything before installing version 1.1 or can I just flash it unto the other rom without wiping everything?Do I have to wipe only when a version 2 of the rom comes out? Ask the developer? EX. Real ics 5 to 5.1, to 5.2....

I have the same question for FXP cyanogen mod. If I have FXP149, Do I have to wipe everything before installing FXP150?

THANK YOU!
[General Questions and Answers] unknown24:
please be more precise about the versions you mentioned
[General Questions and Answers] SXUsr:
What it says. CWM is self explanatory.

Depends what the instructions in the ROM/Kernel/Theme/ thread says.
[General Questions and Answers] ravenwing_15:
Use the "install from sd card" and choose the updated file for your custom rom then install after install just wipe cache & dalvik cache then reboot :D

I guess my Google-fu is weak...

When I connect my N7 to my win 7 box and check the properties in file manager, it says " generic hierarchical".

Is this some variant of Linux ext*?. If so, how is windows able to access it?

Inquiring minds want to know?

AdTHANKSvance.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comminus:
The file system is ext4. Don't bother trying to mount it in Windows, use adb to shell to it instead. If you're just trying to copy files to and from user storage, it should work out of the box via MTP.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Einride:
As he mentioned, it uses ext4, but it's presented to Windows through MTP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol). Makes it easier for most people since they don't have to worry about file systems used, but it's slow as hell on larger files.

I prefer adb myself since it's a lot more flexible.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snevel:
Can you tell me more about ADB (or point me to further information)?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiQ27:
Hi.

My Desire HD's lcd display broke six weeks ago and in the shop they said that it does not go to guarantee repair because the damage is mechanical. Anyway, so I desided to change display myself so I ordered HTC Desire HD Screen Assembly with Plate.

Today it finally arrived and I started to change it by following video on YouTube. I got It changed without problems and it is all now in one piece. But when I but the battey in and plugged charging cable and tried to turn it on there was no life in my phone, not even the orange light turned on when it started charging.

So what might be the solution for this, have I done something seriously wrong during the screen replacemant, I think so.. or is there other possibilities like battery is dead or ... Just wanna know that is there anything to do or do I need to buy new one, just so good phone and worked perfectly before..

Thank you for help.
