Hello

a friend has a tablet Lenovo 2GB. He was installing SlimDroid v7.40 as described here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1639330 . However after the installation the tablet doesn't recognize MicroSD even if he installed the SDcard fix. Can someone help me and describe how to install it step by step correctly so there is no problem with the MicroSD detection?

many thanks

HI Guys,

I've seen similar threads, so I'm sorry if I'm adding clutter, but I can't find anything that works yet.

Stats:

LG Phoenix P505

Android 2.0.3

Windows 7

I tried to do an upgrade to CM10 a while back, and I almost bricked it. I found this thread and tried it several times. Not sure if it worked or the phone corrected itself, but it was communicating with my PC.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1088046

Now all I wanted was to do a ROM backup with ROM Manager. That's it. Just thought it would be a good idea to back up the system. I select the operation and the phone reboots (expected). First I get the LG screen (normal), it skips the LG animation screen and goes to the Service providers animation screen, and gets stuck in a loop. I let it go for almost an hour in case it was actually doing the backup, but figured it should have been done by that time.

I reboot several time and ended up at the same place. I then tried to do the above thread again, but at the command prompt it kept saying, "waiting for device". I uninstalled the LG drivers and re-installed with the same results.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahokif:
I'm having some trouble with my Nexus 7. I foolishly discharged my battery fully. Now, when I plug it in, it boots up immediately, and then powers off with static after a few seconds, so I can't charge it properly. Do you know a way I can force it to charge without booting?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfrancis14:
That literally just happened to me haha but k I left it off and let it go to the charging screen then had a shower which took about 30 minutes then I reboot it and it had 8% battery and now everything is working
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahokif:
The problem is that for me it doesn't go to the charging screen, it tries to boot, crashes, and tries to boot up again. I'm pretty sure it won't charge much this way and it doesn't seem very healthy.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfrancis14:
That's odd um try if you have twrp go there and see if it says the battery is charging, if not can you get into your bootloader okay?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lancemoreland:
I just upgraded to JB on my HTC Evo 4G lte. I am S-ON rooted and everything is working except SuperSU v0.99. I see several others are having the same issue. We are rooted and our apps can obtain root but when you open the SuperSU app, it wants to update the binary. If you allow it to update the phone crashes and reboots. If you select cancel SuperSU closes and you cannot get to any of the settings. There does not seem to be a solution that I have found. I would like to switch to another Superuser app but can't seem to find instructions on how to do so.Will changing to another Superuser app even solve the problem? Ideas?

Edit: Upon further investigation it appears that changing to ChainDD's superuser app may not solve the issue of not being able to update the binaries. So what is the solution?

Edit: I got my answer:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] romeoh:
I'm having the same issue. I switched to superuser and now I'm rooted as root checker states but I can't use adaway any more as Xhausx mentioned that the system directory in JB is locked now and the only way to make it work is to get s-off which is not available right now and i doubt it will be. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Has anyone got this to work on our phones? I have GTA III on my phone and it works flawlessly, yet on Vice City, whenever I get into a car and drive, the whole game locks up and I have to do a battery pull. It's quite annoying. All I wanna do is play the game. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] ryudo423:
I think many phones are having this issue. It seems to be a prob with the adreno 220 gpu
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Is that why it's not supported for our devices? Is there a way around it or no? I tried installing the lite (lag free) version and it worked for awhile longer then froze again. I really want this on my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] 00mpollard:
I'm about to try the lite version, will report back if it works :)

Edit.....tried it, played for 5 mins then my phone locked up and rebooted
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Same here, only thing is, it didn't even last for 5 minutes... I even enabled my 2nd core, over clocked it to 1556 and over clocked the gpu and same problem. Like I said, gta iii works like a charm but vice city just locks up. I don't know if I'm downloading the wrong data or the wrong apk, it just doesn't work.

If anyone does get this to work let me know, thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] 00mpollard:
GTA 3 works for me too.

Must be a problem with the game not being compatiable
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Well I just want it to work. Let me know if someone figures it out.
[HTC EVO 3D] mingolianbeef:
Same for me, definitely a bug in the game, waiting for an update :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
It is compatible with HTC Rezound, same hardware but much higher screen resolution. So it should work better on our phones than Rezound as 3D's screen resolution is less.

I also installed GTA VC on Atrix 2 ICS 4.0.4 stock. It froze on it too while entering a vehicle and returned to homescreen even though it is compatible with Atrix 2. On Jellybean,it worked fine but with stuttering sound.

[HTC EVO 3D] sniper849:
i hope that someone figures this out i need this game lol
[HTC EVO 3D] stanglifemike:
It isn't compatible with the Evo LTE either, though GTA 3 is and plays perfectly fine. Not a big deal for me, as I bought it for my Asus Infinity (TF700T) and it plays great on it. One of my main reasons for having tablets is for gaming. I'm just surprised that Vice City isn't compatible with more devices since GTA3 is.
[HTC EVO 3D] 00mpollard:
It's a shame it doesn't work. I loved gta3!

Hopefully someone will figure it out
[HTC EVO 3D] Siya Nová:
It worked on my Evo LTE when I had ICS, since the JB update everytime I get in the car I get stuck, I'm theoretically moving but not physically moving. The game I downloaded was warez since its not compatible with my phone. I'm going to try to download the original 1.0.0 version and not the 1.0.1 and post my results
[HTC EVO 3D] 1ackass:
Damn, they updated it to 1.03 AND STILL NO FIX :S

[HTC EVO 3D] thephenom696:
Must be a problem with the MSM8260 chip!

It's a certainly a hardware issue.

Both Xperia S and EVO 3d have MSM8260;

and the exact same thing happens on xperia s; the game just locks up

Youtube.com/watch?v=AFu_-1DVZ04&feature=youtube_gdata_player

We must email Rockstar games bros!
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Are both GTA 3 and VC compatible with our phone on play store? It says not compatible with mine. Our phones are better than Xperia Play and same as HTC rezound (except screen resolution) then why are they not combatible? I guess HTC rezound plays them fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] thephenom696:
Nope.jpg

HTC Rezound has the msm8660, our phones have msm8260

same thing happens on Xperia S, has the same processor as our EVO 3D's (msm8260)
[HTC EVO 3D] thatotherguy..:
We have msm8660
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
MSM8260 and MSM8660 are chipsets from Snapdragon family with scorpion cores. The MSM8260 can do only GSM while the MSM8660 can so both CDMA and GSM simultaneously or separately. The international evo 3d has the MSM8260 and sprint evo 3d has msm8660 which is same as rezound and it cannot play vice city either.
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
So there's nothing on our end that we can do to get it to work? I remember when I first got my EVO and it had the stock unrooted Sense 3.6 on it and gta III showed up in the Play Store. Once I rooted and changed roms and it didn't show up in the Play Store After that. I'm using the 3.10.10 modded Google Play with the no restrictions, 240dpi, country mods using titanium yet it still doesn't work.
[HTC EVO 3D] tiboric:
Yeah you can downgrade to gingerbread then vice city works flawlessly on the evo3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] gesange:
So i got the Viper ROM with Sense 4.1 and got it installed and everything works :)

I also have installed GTA 3: NFS Most Wanted, Batman......generally just heavy games :))

Everything runs smooth :D
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Vice city runs without issues on Sense 4.1? Have you tried entering a vehicle?
[HTC EVO 3D] stalkertomek:
So, does it work on GB and Sense 4.1 without crash when entering car ?
[HTC EVO 3D] 1ackass:
In gb it should work fine(as it did in other adreno 220 phones), but for sense 4.1 idk....i will test it as soon as the data gets downloaded

EDIT: on sense 4.1 viper3d rom it still crashes :/
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
I could've told you it wouldn't work on Viper3D. You think its just something with the rom or ICS itself? I'm thinking that ICS is the Windows Vista of Android if you catch my drift. That's just what I think.
[HTC EVO 3D] 1ackass:
Actually ics is like windows 7 and jb is like windows 8, its not an ics problem...its the app prob, since any other app works fine on ics lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
It's something related to drivers or firmware as it works on rezound with sense 3.6. It also works on other ics devices so ics is not a problem. I maybe wrong though.
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
I don't know. Like I said, gta iii worked and showed up on the market at the time then it just disappeared.
[HTC EVO 3D] stalkertomek:
Can someone confirm that it works on GB or some custom rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] tiboric:
It definatly works on GB as I've tryed it on several ROM and it only worked without any problems on gb ROMs including leedroid but dual booting just for one game is not something I want to do. And I also have had this confirmed by two others on the old IP_art forum.

Was looking into it for a while but couldn't find a solution.

Hopefully someone will crack it ( the problem not the game. LoL)
[HTC EVO 3D] Gmobilize:
Actually im kinda pissed at rockstar ,in previous announcement they stated that evo 3d is compatible,now im tweeting to them,e-mailing them ,but no reply. Very kind of them.

The "best" thing is that when the game hangs after few secs there is a really terrible noise coming from the speaker.

Anyway i hope that they would come up with something...
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Can anyone confirm this works on any Jelly Bean roms?
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
No it Doesn't
[HTC EVO 3D] 00mpollard:
I get that high pitched speaker noise beep too. Let's hope rockstar resolve this issue!
[HTC EVO 3D] Makowsky:
It's not Rockstar, see description on Google Play:

Mobile Version developed by War Drum Studios

www.wardrumstudios.com

That's them!

Last update was 18 dec, and it's now 1.03. Still nothing. On my EVO there is just one game from Rockstar on Google Play - Max Payne. How do you get GTA III?
[HTC EVO 3D] Gmobilize:
Well yes ,but rockstar gives support in their webpage and they are connected with this so its kinda them.

And about gta 3 i guess we all know the way....
[HTC EVO 3D] cetindk:
Wow it really does work on Leedroid's GSM Gingerbread ROM. Its too bad that ROM doesn't support Sixaxis, everything besides that is greatly working, no bugs whatsoever.

Gingerbread really is awesome for games man, every game works perfectly in our 3VO compared to ICS and Jelly Bean.
[HTC EVO 3D] rsanchez1:
If you wanna get GTA3 and VC from Google Play, Device Spoofer worked for me. Just make Google Play think that you're on SGS2 and it will let you download both games.

But I'm on ICS stock sprint and it also doesn't work for me, same problem everyone else has.
[HTC EVO 3D] ravensergio:
I flashed Leedroid ROM just to try vice city on it, and sadly it doesn't work for me. I have the same problem like on other ROMs, after entering a car there is that stupid noise and the phone freezes. Maybe I'm doing something wrong...I tried vice city v 1. 03 I believe.

Model: Evo 3d GSM,

Rom: AOKP JB 4.2.1-- helicopter88,

Kernel: Anryl v57.
[HTC EVO 3D] 1ackass:
Sadly The wrong thing you did was buy the wrong phone :p vice city has a bug with all phones with adreno 220 gpu.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Was it ICS rom or Gingerbread ROM? It works on Gingerbread.
[HTC EVO 3D] ravensergio:
I'm sure I have the right phone :D. After almost a year it is still a bad ass phone. I won't cry if one game doesn't work , when there are tons of amazing things that my phone can do.

It was GB ROM. that's why I'm surprised that it doesn't work. I will try today maybe to reflash/reinstall.

Model: Evo 3d GSM,

Rom: AOKP JB 4.2.1-- helicopter88,

Kernel: Anryl v57.
[HTC EVO 3D] 1ackass:
The wrong device for THIS game,but otherwise yea, it is a bad ass phone :D
[HTC EVO 3D] cetindk:
I tried with Vice City v1.0 and it definitely works. I was going to post an apk link but I'm guessing its forbidden.

Quick search google and you should find it.
[HTC EVO 3D] mingolianbeef:
Discussion of it is also not allowed, just an FYI
[HTC EVO 3D] 00mpollard:
Tried them all on ics and they didn't work. And yes posting an apk link is warez which is not allowed!
[HTC EVO 3D] cetindk:
I didnt know that discussion rule. Sorry, wont happen again.

Rockstar is a pain when it comes to fixing their games. I was playing Max Payne on ICS but there was an annoying crackling sound coming from the game. I mailed them about it and they said "We have seen that issue with GTA 3 on ICS based devices. Just wait for an update for Max Payne"

And Max Payne is not updated since August lol. I switched to a JB rom and finished the game there without any issues. Now I'm on GB for Vice City, and I dont think Rockstar is going to update the game for compatbility on ICS or JB anytime soon just because of us.
[HTC EVO 3D] RedDeadDorito:
That's dumb considering most high end phones are on atleast ICS.
[HTC EVO 3D] gesange:
I will stay on sense 4.1 but maybe i switch back to lover GB cause my battery life is dissapointing with this high sense.

But lets talk reallife......when you want to play some bad ass game you turn on your pc or ps3 xbox or just get a vita :P

[Windows Phone 8 General] Juusuhako:
Hi all,

im looking for a new phone and have fallen in love with WP8, I have been using Android for 2 years. I have looked at apps. and found the most important ones to be available on WP, the ones I could not find was: Steam, TwitchTV & an app. to watch Anime on. (not crucial)

I wanna know if there might be something that im gonna miss if I swap to WP. I expect WP to have the basics of any other smartphone (WiFi-hotspot, a proper GPS/Maps app. to get guided both in car and on foot, News, Notes, Calculator etc. etc. etc.) but if theres something it does not have that I might be used to in Android, please let me know.

Would also love to know how updates are handled. Is it through manufacturer (Nokia, HTC etc. like Android), or through MS to ensure all phones gets updated?

Last but not least, im considering buying the HTC 8S, as it seems to be the cheapest of 'em all. I would love to buy Lumia 920, but im afraid if I dont love the system, or feel like it lacks something I need (such as apps...), im gonna be stuck with a very expensive phone over 2 years.

I hope someone can give me some detailed, personal insight on swapping to WP from Android, and if HTC 8S would be a good choice.
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
If you don't wanna buy something really expensive, wait up a bit till lower end phones pop up. SO far, we only have flagships and a couple of mid ends.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Juusuhako:
I dont consider HTC 8S expensive, its around half the price of Lumia 920 here. The reason I back when I bought my first smartphone went with a top model was because I knew Android - back then - still had frame rate issues with its UI (HTCs Sense did at least), so I wanted the fastest phone.

From what I read though WP8 should run smooth on any phone that has it right now, including 8S (also seems smooth in videos). So that is why im hesitating buying Lumia 920, because the system experience is gonna be identical on both phones (same features, both running smooth UI), and since im on a single-core phone atm., its gonna be a step up either way. Basically im in doubt if I should pay the double for the overall better specs plus PureMotion HD+ & NFC.

Im still interested in hearing personal opinions and stuff I listed in first post.
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Windows Phone OS works differently than Android. It always focuses the CPU to what the user does, and background is left for when the phone is idle.

The 8s will run just as fast as lumia 920, the 1Ghz dual core is more than enough for the system

HOWEVER

There are other things you need to look at

1) Storage space: 8s only has around 1.5GB available for user. Although it has an SD card for personal data, you still have only 1.5GB for apps.

2) Camera: Lumia 920 has a vastly superior back camera, and a front camera.

3) Lumia 920 is a Lumia, therefore it has access to some very cool apps. Nokia releases a new feature for its phones every month or so, whereas HTC is really not s active as Nokia.

4)RAM: 8s only has 512, some premium games will require 1GB
[Windows Phone 8 General] Juusuhako:
Thank you for the very informative post, 1.5GB doesnt seem like much for apps. I did read that apps. cannot be stored on an SD card, but then again I didnt think the system would bring the phone to 1.5GB from 4GB.

The reason I considered (yes, considered - defo wont get it now knowing those facts) the 8S is because I simply hate being charged for 24 months!!! Even though we dont pay interest here, its like a never-ending bill. :( Maybe I should wait for Mobile World Congress, see whats revealed in the Windows Phone world, maybe it will lead to Lumia 920 being dumped in price!?!??

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Nokia plans to release a lower end lumia, similar to 8s but with bigger storage space (8GB build-in+SD).

And yes, the system does bring it down that much.
[Windows Phone 8 General] The Jones:
You could always wait for my review of the 8S which will be up later in the week ;)

Anyway, this forum is pretty great, has options for every Windows Phone 8 known to man that's been released. You can check the respective forums to figure out how other users feel about the phone.

Use the find your device textbox up top the page.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Juusuhako:
Do you mean Lumia 820? Cause I Googled abit and it was the only model I could find that people refer to as "the little brother" of Lumia 920.

I will, thanks for the heads up.
[Windows Phone 8 General] The Jones:
I think we are talking of the Lumia 620 here. Will be a good budget priced option by the looks of it, similar to the 8S but with more internal storage and all the Nokia apps.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Thresher:
Some things I 'miss' not having are:

The Bluetooth and micro USB not allowing keyboards.

The Bluetooth and micro USB not allowing gamepads or controllers.

Video out restrictions via microUSB.

No PC software that can control the phone, so you can sit at a desk PC and control the phone, type, etc.

On AT&T in California, USA, both Microsoft, Samsung and AT&T have pushed updates related to their own software, hardware and firmware though the phone and Zune update.

I normally don't fear buying a phone and then if it doesn't work out, selling it on the open market. I normally get a high % of the phone's value back and can pay the new phone fee or pay off the contract (we have subsidized phones where I am at).

Have you looked at the lower end Nokia's? Like the 820?
[Windows Phone 8 General] AREMA:
I am Android user for 3 years (Huawei, Xperia, HTC, Samsung) and finally switch to WP.

Damn like quantum leap improvement for speed and reliabilites, while iPhone interface is boring.

I use Lumia 800, now wanna upgrade to Lumia 820.

- WiFi Hotspot already exist in my 800

- Proper GPS Map from Nokia is nice. Offer offline tunr-by-turn navigation and, City Lens (Bing Eye) is amazing.

- News, you can get NewsRoom from Marketplace easily. This is my fave app since Palm WebOS, Android.

- Note is many apps around there from MP, but using built-in Office Note amazing. Uploading on SkyDrive

- Calculator, the amazing SmartBoard you can get from Marketplace, instead of default MS Calculator
[Windows Phone 8 General] Juusuhako:
Ah, I see. But thats just on top of MWC, might aswell wait and see reveals then. I wish there was more info on 820, it says it would release this year, but I cant find it available anywhere. Must be delayed. :(

I never used keyboards or controllers, so thats fine. Same with controling phone via pc.

I wouldnt wanna bind myself for 2 years of payment only to sell it at a lower value and still having to pay it off, that would be throwing money out the window.

Yes, I have looked at 820, but as far as I can tell its not released yet??? Am I wrong?

I might get Nokia just for the GPS maps they have, seems like nice software. Thanks for heads up about basic apps.
[Windows Phone 8 General] AREMA:
Different country, different release date.

In Indonesia, Lumia 920 and 820 will release on Dec 22, 2012.

And I have pre-ordered ticket for it. To upgrade my amazing Lumia 800 into Lumia 820 (for screen size/slim reason)..

Now, actually Lumia 800 getting official update 7.8
