[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freecharlesmanson:
alright its straight forward im putting this thread here to encourage people, who might be completely lost about a subject concerning their sprint gs3. or may have issues etc. to pm me and in my spare time ill do the best i can to answer what ever questions you might have to the best of my knowledge. i dont know everything but generally speaking am pretty well versed. as long as you try to fix/learn ill respond . i just thought this may be a more helpful way to deal with some repetitive issues mentioned in threads then getting flamed/ignored or 20 different answers about one question. I havent posted in awhile but i did a lot of flaming of my own so i just wanted to apologize for that as a whole to everyone. the only thing i request from any questions is please do not ask about basic gui menu settings like...how do i set a ringtone or turn off connection optimizer.

Alright guys i bought my nexus 7 16gb at gamestop on 11/4/12 just the other day i noticed the speaker is all crackly above 50% volume.

Now gamestop has no problem exchanging out the n7 16gb due to their holiday return policy... BUT they do not carry the 16GB version any more.

I just called google play and they said they cant help me out because i bought it at game stop... so what do i do, cus this is obviously a manufacture defect.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizmoe:
Contact GameStop corporate. They can probably have one shipped to your store. I would ask for a 32 g though cause the price didn't go up.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nd4spdbh:
called coorperate... they couldnt do anything... no stock of the 16gb so pretty much i have to RMA through ASUS.

After rooting my kindle the options bar and status bar disappeared. Also it is no longer under my devices on amazon. The options bar will appear for a second when I click an app but disappear immediately. Does anyone know a fix or how to reset/install to new?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] prokennexusa:
Options Bar and Status Bar Missing - Kindle Fire 2

What Rooting instructions did you follow? Try to give me a Play-by-Play on what you did exactly.

I have seen this on the Kindle Fire HD when someone try's to use Option 2 with the Root MANY ANDROIDS!

Did you accidentally use Option 2?

I have also seen this when someone stops at Step A or 1 in our step-by-step.

We'll try to get you back online.

Fix easy style

To those of you who haven't fixed it, try running option 42 of Kindle Fire Aide. (Fix sluggish Kindle with Flashing Screen) It fixed mine no problem. It was strange, because when it said that the Kindle would look strange it didn't, but instead was fixed. Hmm. :good:
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Hinzman420:
Ive fixed this before for someone all i did was Install adw launcher and go to the settings icon in the app drawer and do a factory reset from there. Rooted or unrooted this will work since adw will install on a unrooted or rooted device.

Here is a free version of adw for anyone that finds this useful

I was just handed a non-rooted Kindle Fire HD 7" which had this issue as well, running 7.4.6

lucky for me, somehow I was able to get Wifi working , I dont remember what triggered the pop up to allow me to connect, but after thrashing around for quite a while I was able to go to appstore and install and open "smart taskbar v2" which gave an alternative way to get at all the settings.

a factory reset seems to have corrected whatever was causing the problem(s)

also, with this particular device, plugging anything into the USB led to a black screen, wasnt able to boot with a factory cable, plugging in an ac adapter shut down the device, just weird behaviour all around. , I feel lucky to have gotten it back to "normal"

just suggesting as an alternative for those who may get this issue and their wifi is working.

[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
Hi everyone!

I have a TF700T running stock with only root and a locked bootloader.

I was able to buy a few movies in HD quality in the play store but there is no HD button when trying to play. If I choose a free episode from some tv show in the play store however then there is an HD option!? I'm guessing these are DRM issues? Free items play in HD, bought ones don't.

Like I said, still LOCKED with only ROOT. Unrooting with OTA rootkeeper doesn't resolve the issue.

I have been searching the net alot lately but haven't found any answer yet which might explain this.

Any help please?? This is driving me crazy! :eek:

Thanks in advance!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ShadowLea:
There are films in the Play Store? :eek:

"Sorry! Movies on Google Play is not available in your country yet."

Right. F*ck you too, Google.

Anyway, pro-piracy arguments aside, from what I can tell buying it in HD automatically plays it in HD. It'll revert to SD on a non-HD device, but play in on a HD-device, it plays in HD. Free videos have a HD option because you don't pick SD or HD seperatelly.

http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2528768&&p=movies_hd&rd=1

Seems fairly obvious.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I know that the "missing" HD button is an issue on unlocked devices (due to DRM issues), but from what I've read, rooted devices should be able to play them in HD...

Very strange... Being that you are still locked and the fact that you said that you purchased the HD version, I would contact Google and see what they say - you should be able to view purchased HD programs in HD!

Please let us know what you find out...

Personally, I've given up on using the Play store for videos since Google won't let me view them in HD (since I'm unlocked). There are alternatives out there, so Google won't be getting my $$ because of this! I did spend a great deal of time trying to make it work, but in the end I figured screw them if they don't want my money! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
I have bought movies, books, magazines, music and apps through the US and UK store. I use a VPN (freehostedvpn.com) because obviously there is no full play store in Belgium yet. It works great! Even managed to get a Nexus 4.
[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
I guess I'll do that. I ordered a microsd card yesterday so I can get back to ICS. See if that changes anything. If it wasn't for these DRM issues I would have unlocked the damned thing ages ago! But even locked I can't watch my HD bought content in HD!! :( But with free HD content there is a HD button!??

Anybody else on Jelly Bean locked with root or no root who is able to play movies or tv shows in HD from Google Play?
[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
Still waiting for the micro sd...

Does any know if the hd option is there when still locked and on ICS?
[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
I have received my sd card and succesfully rollbacked to ICS.

I am now running .30 ICS. I am not rooted and the bootloader is still locked.

However playing HD movies I bought in the play movies store will still not give me the HD option in the lower left corner. Free hd tv show episodes will give me that option. I have no clue why this is happening?

I am also sure I am not the only one on these forums with a locked Infinity with HD movie content from the Play Store.

Can someone please check and tell me if I am the only one with this problem or not? I'm sure I'm not the only one with google play movies?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Even without the HD option, but is it played in HD for you??(if you brought the HD version).
[Asus Transformer TF700] WoozyBE:
Yes, I only buy HD versions. And when I play a free tv show episode with HD option enabled it plays in HD quality but when playing bought HD movies there is no HD button and the quality is really horrible!! So i'm guessing that would be SD.

If there was no HD button but the movies would still play in HD than that would be ok. But I'm stuck with the terrible SD quality... :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Have you tried to download OTA root keeper and temporary unroot your device to see if it's working?? I assumed that everything is stock and you only rooted!
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Actually, he says right in his post that he isn't even rooted - completely stock, unrooted and locked bootloader - makes no sense that HD videos wouldn't work - I would definitely be contacting Google - that's BS...
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] SharpnShiny:
Hi I'm interested in buying this phone.

I don't know much about the specifications needed to better ensure future updates. Were many 7.5 phones updated to 8.0?

I know that with other OSs, at this time, if you want future updates you need a phone with a minimum of 1GB of RAM, and this phone has 512MB, and while it is said to run very smoothly on that, I wonder will it get 8.5 or 9.0? I hate when phones are dumped by manufacturers. I hate to say it but Apple doesn't do that (I'm coming from Android however).

Also related to OS and efficiency, do screens burn battery very significantly on this OS? They don't on the iPhone 5, but kill the battery on 2012 Androids.

Thanks :good:
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] SharpnShiny:

Hi, I'm new to the forum, not a lot of android development but I understand some things. Sorry if I understand it is that I am Argentine and I'm using an online translator and do not understand English.

My question is how you can increase the internal memory of the LG P500 or if there is any way you can.

Right now I have the CM9 ICS 4.0.4 but soon I will use CM10.1

Thanks and sorry if already asked but do not understand much the forum and it's hard because my preferred language is not English.

Greetings!

100% that is right statement. after partition your card, then instal app to mount ext partition. I use link2sd app (need root access). link2sd and fat32 bro is the best combination app for my p500 with 4.1.2 android version.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timpattinson:
Hi.

I just upgraded to CM10.1 on my 16gb wifi n7, and I'm looking for away to install the games that I previously had on AOKP 4.1 and stock 4.2.

They come up as "incompatible" on the Play store.

The apps that don't work include MC3, Shadowgun Deadzone, Asphalt 7 and Dark Meadow.

Is there a way around this?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Drewh1991:
So I Odin One Clicked my mom's Epic 4G touch the other night and she didn't sync her contacts to google like a normal human, but fortunately I made a titanium backup before she upgraded from stock FF18. If she restores the system data from stock FF18 on stock FK23 is it going to bork her phone like it normally would when trying to restore everything on a new rom? I'd rather not have her experiment because I'm back home now and I know she isn't going to be able to re-one click again without my help and I live two hours away so I'm not driving all the way back there because she messed up her phone. Is there any way to get her contacts out of her TB files? I have them on my hard drive and if I could get them in a VCF for her I can just put it in her Gmail account and it would save me a lot of hassle.

Thanks,

Drew
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Drewh1991:
Ok so it seems the best way is just going to be to revert back to FF18, restore her contacts with titanium and then back them up some other way. Is there a guide somewhere to revert to FF18? Can I just use a 1 click to get her back? Shes rooted on FK23 right now. Sorry I'm not familiar with the E4GT, I used to rooting and flashing HTC's so any help is appreciated.
[HTC Droid DNA] dagarnx:
Is anyone getting this? No matter what app I use, Netflix, Pandora, just internal music player/video player, I constantly get static noise out of my ear buds.. :(

Should I be sending it back for an exchange?
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Try turning off beats.
[HTC Droid DNA] dagarnx:
I've tried. No difference...
[HTC Droid DNA] Kasab:
I got the same thing. Whenever there's sound that comes through headphones, it sounds almost like white noise.
[HTC Droid DNA] M0rtiferrimus:
I'm not having this problem. Have you tried different headphones?
[HTC Droid DNA] boodies:
It actually might be the mp3 thats the issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] dagarnx:
Doesn't matter what format it is.

It actually makes white noise more if there pause between audio, it cuts out and comes back with white noise.
[HTC Droid DNA] Danzoman:
I am on my second DNA due to a dead pixel in the first one and both of mine have had noise no matter what I'm playing. Pandora tune in mp3. I don't notice really at all with music but talk radio is bad. Every time there is a pause in the conversation it gets loud. Even if I turn off beats. I have a decent pair of Sony buds that didn't do this on my nexus.
[HTC Droid DNA] dagarnx:
This is exactly what I'm getting. I called verizon and they authorized worry free exchange to a new one.
[HTC Droid DNA] Davyath:
I noticed beats will cause static/popping if the volume is too low. I always have beats disabled its terrible.
[HTC Droid DNA] Hplahpla:
I think I know why

I also hear the static. Doesn't happen with headphones but happens when I connect to headphone jack in my car. Static stops immediately when I turn on airplane mode. I think it has to do with the phone not properly shielded from its own signal. To explain why no static in my headphones is probably because it's a simpler circuit than inside my car. Inside car may have amplifiers and/or grounding that allows current (not sure exactly, just my guess)

Bottom line is, this appears to be an hardware issue, if more serious, design flaw. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
[HTC Droid DNA] x70xchallengerx:
The static you are hearing is due to the 4G LTE radios. Try putting your phone into airplane mode and listening to the music, it should be static free. Unfortunately this is just something we have to live with for now... The only ways around it are .. well with the music at high volume, its usually inaudible (the static), or if you don't use 4G LTE. I use Google music and when the music is cached to my phone, I don't hear static, but if I play a song I haven't played previously (uncached) then it makes noise..
[HTC Droid DNA] Zalatorisaurus:
I thought that's what it might be. The same thing occured with the cached/uncached music.

[HTC Droid DNA] germanmafia88:
I exchanges my phone because of this reason but it sounds like it's a hardware issue. I have yet to try headphones on my new device.

It is really pissing me off as I stream all day at work.
[HTC Droid DNA] radiofan:
I have the same. I believe that the amplifier is set to a fixed volume level on the analogue side. That trade-off would make the quality better when the full volume range is being used, but to do low volumes it has to reduce the volume digitally before it gets to the amp, which isn't a good quality way to do it. (a bit like if you have your mobile plugged into some speakers, if you turned the volume down really low on the phone you'd need to crank it to full on the speakers to compensate, and so you'd get some background hiss).

One fix would be to get some headphones with an analogue volume control in the cable, turn the volume to full on the phone then turn it down in the cable.

[HTC Droid DNA] supertoast92:
I'm also experiencing the low audio cut-off. Still seems to occur even with Beats disabled, just not nearly as bad. Same with the static; still persists without Beats, just not as badly. Same whether I'm in Airplane Mode or not.

Has anyone discovered a tweak/software that fixes this yet? Or is it a limitation of the hardware?
[HTC Droid DNA] phillipdhall:
Same - usb audio maybe?

Same issue. I'm a sound engineer using dual-driver, custom molded, and very sensitive ear buds. I listen at low volume settings, set airplane mode. Completely unbearable noise, quiet parts will cut out completely, low frequency distortion. It's actually a little better with Beats enabled.

Supposedly this phone supports external USB audio - anyone tried it?
[HTC Droid DNA] Argumentation:
It works great, using E17 amp and UE reference IEMs, no static at all. :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] keith843:
I've had this issue with every android device I've owned, I think its something dealing with the OS and file format the song is in. Never had static issues on my IOS devices. Something we have to live with. Usually only hear the static when the music is paused or changing tracks and still at an audible volume.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] borfa:
Got myself a Note 2 T889V this christmas with videotron (canada) still on jelly bean 4.1.1 and was wondering if I can overclock my cpu to 1.8ghz without installing a custom rom (saw MyRom and JediX which looks great but from the comments there seems to always be a few kinks with features not working so i'd prefer to keep stock unless you can convince me that it might be really worth it :D )

I rooted with Mskip toolkit using the ALLINONE, TWRP recovery and SuperSU. I was wondering if app like Tegrak actually work and would do the job, otherwise is there an alternative?

Thanks

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] boodies:
I personally dont think an oc is necessary on this phone yet. Not quite sure what exactly we can accomplish with a higher clock rate at this point, other than draining the battery quicker.

But if you really want to, maybe SetCPU or app like that might work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nmw407:
I think you'll need a custom kernel to overclock. Using SetCPU will only allow you to go to the max of the phone. You can under clock, but not overclock. Frankly though, I haven't seen the need to overclock. This phone is fast enough as is.
