I've used the Sixaxis pair tool and changed the bluetooth address of my controller, but any attempt to pair results in "no controller found - please connect it via usb cable"

Anyone have any luck and want to share their secret to success?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Its TwiX:
Worked just fine for me. Just downloaded Sixaxis to test and I didn't even need to repair my controller to the device's bluetooth.

Same thing happened to me. I unplugged the controller from the computer, hit the center button and it paired and worked great.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Lemurion287:
Has anyone had problems with the second, Jelly Bean update? The approximately 3.5MB one?

The reason I'm asking is that I recently got an A700 from Amazon and as soon as I installed that update (it was the fourth one that appeared) I lost all touch screen response. I tried a hard reset, but nothing I did restored the response, so I ended up sending the tablet back for a replacement.

I got the new tablet, and installed the first three updates, but have not installed this fourth one.

My question is whether I should keep cancelling the update or install it? After it bricked my first tablet, I am very leery of this update.

Thanks in advance

Dave
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] TomONeill:
I requested a changelog concerning the updates from Acer. I hope I will get a reply soon.

My advice: Just go for it. Updates should be there to fix/add stuff.

I've never had a problem with the updates so far. Though, I'm not sure if I got the lastest one yet.

That's just my advice, so I'd wait until there are more replies concerning the update.

Edit:

The Acer peepz don't understand the English language. It looks like they didn't read my email at all!

My email:

Reply:

Where does the employee reads that I have a problem with my device?

Edit2:

After sending them another email, or ticket, really, they sent me a reply. They wanted me to look on the website acer.co.uk to check for updates for my product. Well, that was totally not my question. Looks like the employees are responding with automatic replies. Let's try some other email adress.

Edit3:

Acer: We don't have a changelog.

.... Speechless. What a well organised company.

I bought the SE Xperia Arc LT18i a few months ago, I'm running Win XP 32-bit on my computer. I'm running into a little trouble unlocking the bootloader & its driving me nuts!! I've installed the drivers for the BL easliy, I have the unlock key given to me by Sony developer, I can hook up the phone to the computer & it goes into fastboot mode (the blue LED comes on) What I'm having trouble with is when I go to open a command window & type in "fastboot,exe -i 0x0fce getvar version"....I something like path not found or something like that; in other words my bootloader is still locked. I'm using WinRAR for the files, maybe I didn't extract the files correctly (I don't even know how to extract zip files) Sorry I'm a uber noob any help would be great.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Read the instructions - http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Before using the fastboot command, use

cd X:\....\...

Replace the X with your drive letter and ...\...\ with the patch to the location, where you have installed Android-SDK with all the necessary tools (implying you have it installed). Fastboot.exe is in android-sdk\platform-tools, find it. If you can't, install Android-SDK and through SDK manager, install all necessary tools aswell.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakthi444:
Open the command window once you are in the fastboot folder...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam_soren84:
You know I was looking at YouTube video on how to unlock BL, and when it got to the part about opening up the command prompt window, I noticed that at the top there was a path to which he working from. I guess the location where he had extracted the files to on his computer. That's what I'm having a problem with. Again, thanks for all the help

Hi !

I just got a brand new (old I know) Galaxy S2x with Telus/Koodo

Can someone tell me if this device support native VOIP ?

Also, I have a home server Thecus N3200 with Macromedio server on it. My phone uses All share and I can see the server showing in the menu, but it tells me " no file"

Is there something I can do to fix this ??

hi i am a somewhat noob with android, but know enough , i was wondering if anyone can help me disable the factory menu and back buttons and lights. im using myrom with the onscreen nav bar, and want to kill the other bottom buttons and their lights. the setting in the display setting on the phone for keylight duration is now missing after the nav bar add on. thanks for reading my request
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfpack612:
go to system/usr/keylayout and open generic.kl add # in front of key 127, key 139, and key 158 to comment those lines out. Not sure if necessary or not but also comment out the keys for menu and back in the file sii9234_rcp.kl. This works for me.

To turn off the lights go to settings-display-touch key light duration and set it to always off.

[edit] just noticed you said the setting is missing for you

im going to be upgrading my phone and thinking of doing at best buy so i can attempt to get a price match from amazon

few questions

do i have to activate the phone right then and there in the store,need to know this cause if i go on a certain day or time of day i dont want to switch to a new phone on the spot i would want to do it on my own time

other questions what insurance kind of options does best buy offer and are there any differences between theres and verizons

online at there site i can only upgrade and take on a share everything plan since im losing my unlimited i figure in store i could choose just the regular tier data as my plan correct?
[HTC Droid DNA] rhettnis:
I bought my galaxy nexus at bestbuy so I can comment on the insurance. I would highly recommend it over the Verizon stuff, I think it cost $1 more per month, but unlike Verizon it has no deductible. It also covers everything, even if its your fault. Basically if something happens to it, you just bring in the phone, or whatever pieces of it you can gather, and they will take it, and next day air you a replacement. You don't have to send it out for repairs for a month to be looked at or anything like that, they just take it back no questions asked. I took in my nexus for a cracked screen, and they didn't even turn it on, just popped out the battery and sim for me to keep and had me sign a paper and I was on my way and my new phone arrived in a day or so.
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
check my thread about upgrading via Best Buy's website..

it won't answer your instore type questions but might be worth a look..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2018683
[HTC Droid DNA] iamloco724:
interesting so you were able to keep your unlimited this way

i just went through the process and it says keep plan as well

i would try this instantly if after the order i can get the price adjusted for the price match i want to do in store
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
at this point yes I still have unlimited data my account that i upgraded via Best Buy's site.. I am debating whether it's worth the hassle to attempt to have them price match the amazon price in store now that amazon is $50 less than what i spent..

If i knew it would be easy and straightforward i wouldn't hesitate to stop by a store and have them match but anticipate that i will have to so some "convincing" :)

I'm hoping someone can tell me how to get adfree to work. When I open adfree it says I'm up to date but I still get ads in a lot of apps (words with friends, bacon reader). I'm running viperINC 1.0.1. I feel like it used to block ads but has stopped working lately. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I don't think it will block all ads. Try another ad Blocker and see if you get different results.

Sent from my Incredibly Indecisive Dinc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Just how it works. The ad blockers modify your hosts file to change the address of ad sites to be unavailable. The place where the ads are will still show depending on how they're coded into the app.

@Pepluan : how to insert the desired files into the sxt2 partition ? ===> answer: read 2nd post

@Hadidjapri : more explanation to ur method plz :) ===> read 3rd post

share your ideas too :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
If you have installed Link2SD, the 2nd partition will be mounted as /data/sdext2 (the "ext2" here means "2nd partition on external", no relation to the actual filesystem)

Use a root-friendly explorer like ES Explorer or SolidExplorer (my favorite, currently), and it's wide open :cool:

Create a folder there, maybe call it "toolchain" or "sysfiles" or something that discourage people from mucking around.

Then, create a file in that folder called ".nomedia" (dot-nomedia).

Afterwards, *anything* you put in that folder (using your root-friendly explorer) will never ever show up in any 'media library' kind of app (e.g., Galler, QuickPic, MX Player, or whathaveyou) ;)

(But... if you're using ES Explorer, it has its own internal 'gallery-izer' that enables you to view *any* folder as if it's a multimedia album)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hadidjapri:
hmm my method, in step by step

1. make folder in sdcard or external_SD.

2. give a tricky name like "system" , "driver", or whatever you like. but there are some term it have to be sure a) don't give a name that is attractive such as "my hidden files", "don't touch" in my experience those kind of name attracts more

3. make another folder with another tricky name just like in step #2

4. copy your files to folder you created in step 3

5. give .nomedia file so it can be scanned

6. copy some camuflage stuffs. in my case it can be somekind of thing from your system like files in xbin or sbin. or from what i said is like toolchain for kernel building :p

7. voila your friend won't be attracted to open files they are unsure. considering they are not an advance who knows everything about android :p they won't take a risk of bricking other's devices just to fulfill their curiousness :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
The problem with your strategy is that some apps ignore ".nomedia" and scans both Internal and External SD Cards willy-nilly...

Within minutes, all your carefully hidden ... cute puppies pictures will be visible and sundry :eek:

If you have a 2nd partition + automounting by Link2SD, the 2nd partition can be found in /data/sdext2. Nearly all apps I know stay away from /data because there are a *huge* amount of unimportant pictures (e.g., app assets like icons and stuff) inside /data

Add ".nomedia" to be certain.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hadidjapri:
hmmm what if i put it in /data/ ? or even more in /system/ :p
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] reddvilzz:
Well i guess on system/ there aren't big capacity memories in there, so if you have a big collection of that *puppies* what peps called :p, it won't be enough.

Unless you have some internal like the nexus that would be enough for now :p

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] romaluca:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] herioeks:
just putting Period (.) before the name of a folder makes it hide the folder without the .nomedia file
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hotfloppy:
The reason they put .nomedia file is so that the media scanner will not scan any media (image, video, audio) in those folder.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Shehram Ahmad:
Why dont just install file locker and lock them...so that they may never get scanned....its so lengthy moving the things again and again to folders.... :/

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
Hide It Pro makes a labyrinthine structure of dirs, including dot-directories, and finally resort to extension-changing. The files hidden are not visible to any media scanners, and if you need to restore them, you can gather them and rename based on their contents.

that good but for a noob as me it will b kinda tricky, 1st wts meant by labyrinthine (the only labyrinth i know is in inner ear :D ) 2nd how will i know which file is which ????

labyrinthine = a deep & complex structure that make people reluctant to explore

Hide It Pro has its own Gallery system.

Try it out; it's simple and all steps are guided.

-- Sent from a GT-I8150 running ICS perfectly well. F'U, Sams#!t --

yeah it is simply hide your file, change the extnsion and have own gallery also you can see that too with rootex. when you connect to pc you can open what you hide with all video players without changing the extensions:)

Hey guys. It's sad for me to say, but I just sold my One X tonight. Someone offered me a price I couldn't refuse. I just bought a Galaxy Note 10.1 so I may also get a Samsung phone to match.

I will miss this community dearly! Like I said in the 'Introduce Yourself' thread, this has been the best experience I've had on XDA since I joined. I hope you guys get JB soon. The wait was tough. If someone wants access to the files of the theme I made a while back I'd be glad to hand it over.

Take care guys!

P.S. I usually don't keep a specific phone for too long. I end up getting bored with it no matter how much development there is. It's just that there's so much different tech out there that I try to use as much of it as I can. Maybe it's my OCD, but I think it's just my love for technology lol.
