I found if you flash stock recovery, you're still rooted, the Allshare cast dongle works... Just an FYI...:good::laugh:

If I need to use CWM I have the flash file on my sd card and flash using mobile ODIN... Takes 2 secs and I have CWM again. Same with stock recovery....

Dongle works fine...

I use stock UK JB, rooted with stock recovery., can't say about anything else but since it seems only the modem is changed then should work...

Is the Nexus Q still alive somewhere inside Google or got it dropped once and for all? (Would be sad, I wanted to buy one)

Any information?
[Nexus Q Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakedninja42:
Haven't seen anything other than speculation while searching. I ended up getting one off ebay, flashed Quantum by Lokifish Marz and modified it enough to be able to run Android Launcher at start and use the browser with flash, android games, and audio and video streaming while still keeping the functionality of the Q intact. Really happy with it because I can bring with me traveling and hook it up to any TV and Wifi.

Hi,

How can I reinstall the native SMS app for Xperia S?

After my daughter had a little play around with my phone, the native app disappeared. No icons. No running services. No SMS's.

I had to install the GO SMS app and I so want to uninstall it as quickly as possible and have the native app back :/

Phone is up to date using PC Companion.

Not rooted. Don't plan to root.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] karlsbug1971:
I just bought this tab and flashed this PA 2.55 and I must say its running great. I had a Nexus 7 before and the 7.7 is so much more of a complete device. However, when I set up Google Now it slows down a bit and becomes a tad laggy. I have ended up turning all animations off and then its not so noticeable. Anybody else noticed this and is there a fix? I have also noticed that it becomes a bit laggy when corporate email sync is on. Other than that it's much better than the stock ICS rom although I do miss some of the features in Touchwiz.

Cheers Guys.

I've just received my new Razr i yesterday. I've unlock the bootloader, rooted it and instal CWM 6.0.1.9.

My problem is under the CWM, as soon as I want to install a .zip I've always this message : "E: Error in /external_sd/ ... .zip (Status 255) Installation aborted"

Take the update-binary from any of your working RAZR i flashable zip (or an OTA update.zip) and drag and drop into the zip you are trying to flash.

255 means binary not compatible pretty much.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
Hi all,

My mum has been deciding between a Kindle Fire and a Nexus, I have a Nexus and love it, and have been trying to convince her to get a Nexus.

Now she can't not get a Nexus, she really wants one and even went as far as saying shed done some research and the Kindle Fire doesn't last longer than two years.

So, I've been looking for a Nexus but they're all £200.

Google is the only place with it for £159.

I will purchase it from Google, but if it has screen lift I'm SCREWED.

As I've heard returning to Google is hard, long and they RE-CHARGE YOU ?! for a second device?

Question:

Is it really that bad returning to Google?

Do they charge you twice until its returned?

What're the chances of it being defect, have they sorted it out now?

THANKS !! (Silly question I know, but something always breaks at Christmas)!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exglynco:
No, it's not difficult to return a defective Nexus 7 to Google. They emailed me a RMA immediately. And they will only charge your credit card if they find damage caused by you or your mum.

[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
Hi all, this is my first post on XDA. It's not an unfamiliar place for me though. For the past 3-4 years I've owned 3 different sets of Android phones, and this is THE home that satisfied my software tinkering. I've many great memories of Android, especially Galaxy Nexus. But the joy of my reunion with Nokia is indescribable. Finally WP8. Finally Nokia. Enough of my "introduction". I've this question for you folks out there. Has anyone experienced the same - that new updates are available for installed apps but not showing up on the app store live tile? I've noticed this a few times, the latest being Nokia drive + beta. I learned about the available update through wpcentral. It's only when I searched for the app on the store that the live tile started showing"1" (means 1 update available.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
I should clarify that this is not just on the live tile. In fact I didn't see any update notification even when the app store is launched. It was almost like I had to view the app on the store (that's where you see the "update" option) in order to trigger the notification.
[Nokia Lumia 920] indoors:
I don't currently have my 920 to hand (it's in for repair) but if memory serves you can go to Settings > Phone update and make sure it's set to automaticly check for updates.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Jim Coleman:
I am getting at least some app update notifications, but I certainly did notice that the notification for Nokia Drive didn't appear. But I think that sometimes there is a delay between the update becoming available in the store, and the notification appearing on the phone. Perhaps because you knew there was an update for Drive, you got in there and looked in the store before your phone had had a chance to notify you.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
I experienced the lack of notification for metrotube, nokia extras+info, and nokia creative studio all within this week. I only came to know of the updates all because of wpcentral. It really puzzles me. I'm certain there isn't any settings for toggling app update notification on wp8 (unlike android play store). Or is there..?
[Nokia Lumia 920] xson:
I think the app just have a day delay...

We know that those blog are much faster than the store app.
[Nokia Lumia 920] LudoGris:
I got the updates today. Seems to be a delay or something. Patience I guess.

[Nokia Lumia 920] prjkthack:
The Store only checks for app updates at certain times, at which point if it finds something it'll update the tile. The tile does not update as soon as app updates become available. So there is a slight delay between the update going live, and the live tile being updated.

Nothing new, totally normal.

If you're reading about app updates on wpcentral, then you've most likely read about the update before the Store got a chance to check for updates.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
Thanks. That makes sense.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
After deliberately searching all my installed apps on app store, I just realized I have 2 apps that have new updates. They are My Stocks Portfolio and List & Things (paid). Updates were released on 12/12 and 13/12. Today is 17/12, but I never saw the available updates info on the store's main screen or live tile. After this deliberate exercise, I do see the available updates info on store app main screen as well as the live tile. I'm also now convinced this is a current shortcoming in wp8 app store.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
Oh, and Evernote as well. I missed that out somehow. Update was released on 14/12.
[Nokia Lumia 920] zolgi:
If app is updated in lets say 10.12. It does not mean you can download in that day or even day later. I think thats date when they went to checking.
[Nokia Lumia 920] sutt359:
Ive been having the same thing...... The other day I had 12 all at once. Now some of the apps I knew had updates from reading on wpcentral so I thought I would leave it and see how long.

5 days later it pop up saying I had the update.
[Nokia Lumia 920] hehedeba:
zolgi,

Your understanding is incorrect. The "last updated" information shown on app store is real time with the update's availability. I'd validated on a few apps. When you go to view the app, it shows update is available. It's only then the information gets pushed to the app store main screen and live tile (if you keeps it on your home screen). I accepted it as a temporary shortcoming which will get fixed in future. From other forum members in wpcentral, I also learnt it used to work on wp8 and is still working on wp 7.5 .
[Nokia Lumia 920] gilesrm:
Push notification

There is a known bug affecting push notifications on WP8 which can be triggered by a number of badly behaved applications, even with a small number of allowed backgroungs tasks in "settings". Further, the "Find my phone" setting is buggy: when you activate it by pushing the slider to the rightn when you go back to settings it will say "Find my phone is not activated". Further, the "Find my phone" page in settings does not offer a push notification setting on the Nokia Lumia 920, contrary to what WP8 Microsoft help says. Find my phone however works ok.

Anyone with a solution?

Hi everyone,

Anyway, I have a Korean LG Optimus 4G LTE (Nitro HD) and just updated to ICS 4.0.4. I'd like to root it so I can clean it up a little and maybe modify some stuff, but the guides online don't refer to my exact software version.

You can't disable that. Try tapping the word only, not.slightly above it. También try not touching the trackpad. Is your track pad broken? That could make it keep on registering movement

[Miscellaneous Android Development] kassipopassi:
Hey jman10 thank you very much for your awesome tutorial.

But i still have to ask, if the restore works 100%, because of lack of gps signals i made a cwm backup of my current stock-rom(4.0.4) and tried, if the newest update(4.0.4-01001) still has problems with gps signals. Well actually it didn't get any better, so i decided to go back to the old version with the help of my backup.

CWM said there were no errors while restoring, so also thought it. But i get a few bugs using the old version, the stock camera-app gets force closes, even after reboots or a data wipe. The stock e-mail app shows weird artefacts on the email subjects, a very large 'x'. It seems, like a lot of system files are missing or sth.

Can you help me?

Thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jman0:
If you use my script to backup your rom, restore from CWMR will work 100%. So, your way to go is to start from scratch. Download Alcatel Onetouch Upgrade to a pc, connect the phone and get the latest full version rom on their servers (which sometimes is not the latest one available). Then, connect via wifi and get the latest OTA update. After that, you can root the phone, flash CWMR and make a working backup. From that moment, you'll be able to restore whenever you want and not risk anything.

By the way, which problems are you having with the gps? Mine is working like a charm, even indoors. Where are you from and what kind of tests have you done with it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kassipopassi:
Hey thanks for your quick answer, actually i did the whole process that way:

-root stock firmware 4.0.4

-installed cwm per mobileuncle tools

-created image per script

-updated with the help of one touch manager to 4.0.4-01001

-tried gps, didnt work

-rooted

-installed cwm per mobileuncle tools

and then i wanted to return to point 1, but as soon as i restored the backup, my camera doesnt work and i get random fc's of several apps. i would like to return to stock 4.0.4, because since the new update the system is more laggy :(

do you know a way? do you have a *.img of the old version?

my gps is really weird, i would say it works at 10%. in my home city i couldnt make it work, then i tried it randomly in 2 other cities and it worked instantly, but then i try it again at the same spot, where it worked a couple of hours earlier and it doesnt work anymore :( its really weird.

thanks man!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jman0:
Did you do a factory reset after rooting? It's really important to do so, and the phone doesn't work if you don't.

You need also to implement dual sim support on it.. it's a huge work!!!

For now we can aim to fix those annoying bugs on stock rom (if we can) and get a 100% working recovery.

My bugs on latest stock rom:

- bluetooth freezes when bt headset is disconnected by lack of signal

- compass doesn't give good values at all

- need for speed most wanted sound is borked and is not 100% smooth like on other mtk 6577 devices.

In addition I would like to have:

- smaller system bar on the bottom

- search button and menu button always visible on system bar

- extended power menu with the option to have "extended desktop" (system bar hidden by killing it, and then restarted when reenabled)

These can be made by editing framework with smali and friends.

Prerequisite is a fully deodexed rom (and that is easier) and a lot of spare time!

Any news?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MadMav88:
About bugs:

- When I'm calling someone that is listed as favourite for a specific sim, the system asks which number I want to use.. I know about the configuration, I settled the first sim as principal (every call) and the second sim just for some contact. So, why is still asking which number is able to use for them? Is it a bug?

- The digital compass doesn't work well, or better, it's not working at all! The North it's not properly indicated, it follows the gravity verse..

Addictions:

- The status bar can be toggled by power menu or maybe by a sequence (example: vol - vol -)

Etc.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] toysnic:
It's the same on mine.

I tried to set one contact associated to 1st sim and an other to the 2nd sim, and I set the 1st sim for all call.

When I want to call:

-if I phone one contact without associated's sim, call goes direct by the 1st Sim.

-If I phone one contact with the 1st sim associated, call goes direct by the 1st Sim.

-If I phone one contact with the 2nd sim associated, the sim choice windows appear but it's written "suggested" on the 2nd sim.

So the call don't start automatically. :(

and I set no principal sim for call (every time you need to choose), I have the sugestion on the associated's Sim.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fear_factory84:
Many people complained about this contact sim preference bug.. I never used this function, so I can't tell.

To toggle status bar, the better working solution I've found is the Hide bar app (search it on xda).

Yesterday I was fighting with my phone that looses signal on the secondary sim when on charge. It may be a bug with my sim/operator combination when sim1 has 3g enabled.

Sim1 Wind Italy, 3g enabled on it, Sim2 Tim Italy no 3g (obviously), when I attach charger or usb cable, I loose Tim signal.

Swapping usim card slots does nothing.

If I enable 3g on Tim Italy, and no-3g on Wind Italy, it works flawlessy. Same if I disable totally 3g.

Anyone with similar issues?

I collected radio logcats and sent them to Alcatel Italia. Probably they will not reply at all, but I have tried...

Please do the same for other bugs! Maybe they'll hear us..
