[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jpmcnown:
I flash a sh*t ton of roms, and a problem I revisit every once in a while, is the apparent inability to backup/restore JUST the stuff in Accounts and Sync, and settings of those accounts. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say it sucks to have to re-enter 15+ different account names/passwords/etc every time I flash a rom(which is quite frequently), So why is it when I search for a solution, I find responses that belong over in an Apple Discussions forum(aka no solutions, just rhetoric).

To backup/restore my Apps and App settings, I use RomToolBox Pro>App Manager>Backup app + data + market links. This works very well, and saves a lot of time, as opposed to restoring from the market, and still needing to go back in and set up the apps. I can backup/restore individual apps, with or without the settings. I can't help but think a backup solution similar to this, only for accounts, must be out there.

There is an option in RomToolBox Pro>App Manager>Backup misc.data to backup Accounts, but I've never gotten it to work worth a ****. I've seen several forums over the years with people asking this same question, and being told that Titanium Backup can backup the Accounts and Sync Settings, but no one ever bothers to explain any further.

Though I can't remember the last time I was without root access, a plus would be to find a solution that didn't require it. Thanks for any help, And I hope if you're reading this years from now, this is the end of your fruitless search.

Hi. So I've flashed the latest MiniCM10 and I noticed that even if I install flash player it just doesn't work neither on the stock browser nor on dolphin browser HD.

How does amazon price phones and other devices so.much lower than the phone carriers? What do the get out of it?

I Murder Murderers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nesmall2:
I believe they are just another third party seller, and they just make some profit off their devices, where as other company's take the device that they purchase, then mark the price up much higher so they make a higher share of profits. Amazon makes a lot of money because it is like a whole seller and makes some profits, but there are so many purchases that occur, that it makes a large share of money
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ihavenewnike:
So how do they sell 700 dollar phones for 150 on a Sprint line. Obviously 2 totally different companies

I Murder Murderers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] volwrath:
They are a reseller for Sprint? They pay $500 for the phone, the customer pays 150, and sprint gives them a $400 fee for the customers contract. They make $50.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Unsillied:
This is Amazon we're talking about. They undersell everyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zoid_99:
Just picked up a VZN S3 for $79 for my son's christmas present. Cheapest I've found anywhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pkd600:
This. They get a commission for the contract just like Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc. get when they sell you phones.

Amazon uses its position as a market leader to undercut competition. They make deals with manufacturers and other companies to receive products for less (in exchange the manufacturer or company selling the product gets access to Amazon's enormous customer base). They also, especially around the holidays, sell products at a loss. It's referred to as a "loss leader" and lots of different businesses employ the tactic. The idea is that you market a product at a very low price, a price that you are actually losing money by selling the product, but in turn you gain a customer who will buy 10 other things that sell at a profit.

Hi all...

Dumb question: is there a way to change the color associated with an account as it appears in mail and calendar when viewing multiple accounts?

In my phone Htc Amaze, yahoo is people and my exchange is orange. But on my N7 they are brown and teal. Can i change them somewhere to be consistent?

I know, it seems silly, but aggravating.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SammiSaysHello:
i think this is dependent on which phone manufacturer and email application that each individual manufacturer use on their phone. How about deleting your accounts and then adding them back?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] loserskater:
So I've been banging my head against the wall trying to get this to work. Here's what I've got so far:

I started off by enabling the "voice_call_recording" in PhoneFeature.smali as seen HERE.

This enables call recording... well the button at least.

Here's a logcat of what happens when the button is pressed: pastebin

Note: I changed the input source to 3 (VOICE_DOWNLINK) to see if it would change anything. It doesn't.

It seems as though AudioPolicyManagerBase can't find the device for the inputSource.

V/AudioPolicyManagerBase(29808): getDeviceForInputSource()input source 3, device 00000000

V/AudioPolicyManagerBase(29808): getInput() inputSource 3, samplingRate 8000, format 1, channelMask 10, acoustics 7

W/AudioPolicyManagerBase(29808): getInput() could not find device for inputSource 3

E/AudioRecord(29808): Could not get audio input for record source 3

I believe the culprit is 'device 00000000'. I tweaked PhoneVoiceRecorder$RecorderThread.smali to see if changing the audiosource would do anything.

const/4 v5, 0x[COLOR="Red"][B]3[/B][/COLOR]

invoke-virtual {v4, v5}, Lcom/sec/android/secmediarecorder/SecMediaRecorder;->setAudioSource(I)V

I tried voice_call(4), voice_downlink(3), and voice_uplink(2) (see HERE) but they all produce the same results. No device found.

Does anybody have any tips?

You are right, go for SiyahKernel (latest) (safe -> no mmc) Flash it with Odin.

That will give you a safe kernel with Root then you can follow instruction in CM website (CM10 zip + gapps) to get a working CM10.

This is an HTC problem. I have no clue why, but for some reasons the stats on their phones never report properly after having a custom ROM. I used to have an HTC Desire, then a GSII, now a Sensation. I noticed the stats were always off with my Desire, they were fine with my GSII, fine with a stock One X then with my Sensation I get the some terribly reported battery stats again. It is just something I have gotten used to.

Someone with more technical knowledge can explain better why it does that. But with the Desire it was a known issue which no one knew how to fix. Or the resources to fix it are just missing.

fix for battery stats and reboots

hey guys i had the same prob. was running viper 1.4.1 phone was rebooting and was geting crazy battery stats. i was reading a post about the the grounding pins on the back of the phone they touch the battery cover. pull those pins out ever so just for good contact with the cover but be gentle. i have done this and had no probs so far hope this helps let me know how u get on.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Have you checked to see if your getting a wake lock? You can download better battery stats and it will detect any wake lock you might be having and identify the offending app So you can stop the wake lock. Give it a try I think it might help. You can download better battery stats from here on xda, and read about bad and good wake locks. It's very informative. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

this is a known software bug; try flashing the stock rom via Googles script in the rom package instead that might fix it; also make sure you downloaded the rom package direct from google.

just extract the "occam-jop40c-factory-cd3dc140.tgz" into the platform-tools directory of the android SDK then run the flashall.bat script google provided it should fix the problem as it uses the -w update.

im not sure why people bother flashing everything manually takes too long, and if your not expirenced at flashing its more prone to cause issues from user error :P google gave us scripts for a reason
