[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Austin Avalon:
I'm having a difficult time getting my phone back to stock to send back to Asurion who sent me a new phone. I had a problem where I could not get the phone to activate after installing Cyanogen 10.1. I show two ticks when I boot up into download mode. I would like to get rid of these before sending the phone back.

My problem is two fold.

1. I have rooted using Root Debug but when I install EZ-Unlock it stays white and will not bring up the interface to unlock the bootloader. What could the issue be?

2. How can I get TriangleAway to my phone I'm sending back since it never activated and I have a working phone now?

Thanks for your help. I've looked around and could not find something similar to my situation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
#1-If have root don't need to unlock boot loader. Just run Triangle Away and Odin stock Image again to kill root.

#2- Can either pay for app and download from Market via wifi or get here on XDA, put on root of sd card and install with root explorer of choice.

#3- To get to homescreen and bypass activation from language setup screen tap top left corner/top right corner/bottom left corner/bottom right corner/volume up.

Sweet thanks!

Now a error message comes up saying Triangle Away has stopped working everytime I use it. It goes through it's checks at the beginning then the screen goes black and there goes the error.

Did you Odin back to stock ICS or JB and then reroot. The debug method only works on ICS. I would start Over by Odin back to stock ICS Or need to use new root method for JB. :cool:

I have heard from sources that rom manager is a quick and easy way to get CWM and Roms onto my phone, but then I hear from other people that it will brick the skyrocket. Can someone put this into perspective for me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
This it's a question you could've answered yourself by spending five minutes with the search button. ROM Manager is good for fixing permissions and making paperweights on the Skyrocket, and that's about it.

I have an N7 3g. I'm using MoDaCa's JR-4. Outgoing emails continually get stuck in the outbox and don't go out. I think it has something to do with N7. I have never had this problem with other android cell phones, PC, etc.

Is there a solution?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAtheistReverend:
I have had this problems on phones before, but not yet on the N7 *knocks on wood.

First I would check your sync settings to make sure all is appropriate.

The way I was able to remedy the situation was to either uninstall gmail, and reinstall, or just uninstall the latest update. I haven't had that fail me yet. You could also try clearing data, cache, and force stop the app from settings first.

(may require reboot after)

Good luck!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
i had this issue in Gmail today on the N7 running a CM 10.1 nightly. i used to see this a lot as well on Gingerbread, and uninstalling the app/clearing data in the app does work but makes you lose the draft you had written(which sucks if it was a long one!). i used to solve it by clicking reply and creating a dummy message in the same thread, saving that message as a draft, then going into my drafts folder and the message that got stuck would have an option to send... or something like that, and that worked. however, i couldn't seem to get it to work today, on Gmail 4.1.2 :( fortunately my stuck message today was small, so i just cleared data in the app and rewrote it, and it did send then.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAtheistReverend:
You could also just highlight the whole draft and copy, then paste when done. It should be copied to your clip board and not the gmail app. I suppose it is always safer to save it somewhere before deleting, though I would think if you were going to do that, you would want to save the copy in a different app like ever note.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
I'll try that here on Jelly Bean next time, but that actually wasn't possible before. When the message got stuck sending, it was in a limbo state where the text of the message wasn't accessible to be copied! I definitely tried that because i lost some pretty long drafts!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
I have rolled back gmail to the earlier version several times but it keeps updating behind my back and emails become stuck in the outbox again.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
I have rolled back gmail to the earlier version several times but it keeps updating behind my back and emails become stuck in the outbox again. Also, although I'm currently using JR-4, I have CM-10, PA, and stock rooted ROMS nandroided. I could restore any of them and test, but I'm pretty certain it's ubiquitous. It's either the gmail app or android 4.21.

Also, I have a Galaxy Note 2. 2 versions of gmail are installed: 1.0 and 4.21, and emails don't get stuck. N7 only has has 4.21 installed. Why doesn't N7 also have 1.0 installed?

Also, I just cleared cache and data and the email is resynching. I'm certain that the problem will return. I love the N7, but this is really annoying.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
Is there a particular version of Gmail that works better? If so, have you gone into your market settings and disabled automatic updating? I've been running the 4.1.2 version for a long time now, and it never updates to 4.2. I also disabled update notifications so it doesn't bug me at all.

But yeah, it's an annoying issue. Sometimes i turn to K9 Mail, as it works great for Gmail accounts. Plus i love the dark theme option. In the end i like the way native Gmail synchs tho.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
Thanks for your help. How can I downgrade from 4.2.1 to 4.1.2? I think that will work until Google addresses this issue. The Disable link inside "App Info" used to show this downgrade capability. However, that text was probably there when I was using a different Rom. I have MoDaCa JR-4 running now and I think I want to keep it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
I think if you flashed a ROM that came with 4.2, you won't have the option to uninstall updates. In any case, i posted 4.1.2 in the 3rd to last post in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2005006. You can just uninstall 4.2 and install 4.1.2 if you wish. I will warn you tho, I did have the stuck sending issue yesterday, but I think that was the first time.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
I already had the apk. The problem is that I can't find a way to uninstall 4.2.1. Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
Oh sorry, if it is a /system app in the ROM, then you'll need to use Titanium Backup or a file explorer app. The free version of Titanium will do the job.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
I just use file explorer to delete it from /system/app, then install the 4.1.2 apk and turn off automatic updating in Play Store?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
Yep, you might even want to disable automatic updating first, haha. And If I remember correctly, the apk installs just by tapping install, no need to paste it into /sysyem/app, I don't think...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
Thanks for all your help. It's all setup. How long do you it will before Google fixes this problem and I can go back to automatic updating?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogi2010:
no idea on that one. honestly i've had that issue from time to time on every version of Gmail on every Android version i believe. that was part of the reason i used K9 Mail for such a long time.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhford:
Bad news 4.1.2 emails are now stuck in outbox.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamire:
This happens because Google wants to take over your e-mail service; in other words you must be using your Android or smartphone's e-mail app instead of Google's GMAIL App. There are two fixes to this problem, first is to download Goggle's GMAIL App and use that for email communication; and second is to ask google to allow 'less secure' apps i.e. non-google to access your e-mails (i know!) Here are the steps for the second option:

Allowing less secure apps to access your account

Google may block sign-in attempts from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards. Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your account safe.

Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include:

The Mail app on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or below

The Mail app on your Windows phone preceding the 8.1 release

Some Desktop mail clients like Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird

Change account access for less secure apps

To help keep Google Apps users' accounts secure, we may block less secure apps from accessing Google Apps accounts. As a Google Apps user, you will see a "Password incorrect" error when trying to sign in. If this is the case, you have two options:

Option 1: Upgrade to a more secure app that uses the most up to date security measures. All Google products, like Gmail, use the latest security measures.

Option 2: Change your settings to allow less secure apps to access your account. We don't recommend this option because it might make it easier for someone to break into your account. If you want to allow access anyway, follow these steps:

Go to the "Less secure apps" section in My Account.

Next to "Access for less secure apps," select Turn on. (Note to Google Apps users: This setting is hidden if your administrator has locked less secure app account access.)

If you still can't sign in to your account, the "password incorrect" error might be caused by a different reason.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] gloster2:
Just wanted to post a brief review of the RND Power Solutions Deluxe Cradle. I saw another thread on their synch/charge cradle, but not for this cradle.

I purchased it via Amazon for $25 + $3 shipping. It arrived quickly.

It holds the Note 2 in a vertical position and also holds and charges a second battery at the same time. I bought one in white. It is a brighter white than the front of my white Note 2, but it certainly looks like it was made to go with my phone. I think it looks sharp. The phone is sturdily held; it's easy to use the screen while the phone is in the cradle. I have not measured the charging time for either the phone or the second battery. However, they both seem to charge at "normal" speeds.

Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] finalhit:
Does it come with a charger?

Samsung sells a really nice similar bundle that comes with a second battery but I don't think it charges the phone while docked

swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] gloster2:
Yes, it comes with a charger.

I saw the Samsung one. As you mention, it doesn't charge the phone. That's why I bought the RND one.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mitchellvii:
What amperage does it charge at? How about the battery recharger? If you use the Samsung OEM power cable the Samsung OEM charger will charge at 1.7 amps which is the highest I've seen. Fully recharges drained battery in 2 to 3 hours. These 450 mah or lower chargers take FOREVER and if you are suing the phone will drain faster than they charge. Unless the main charger is 2.1 amps it isnt worth it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Ok, I took the advice of using a 3rd Party App for Bluetooth Dialing from the Bug on Jelly Bean.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35199&q=bluetooth voice dial&colspec=ID

First I Tried EVA. Which was very nice but it would only work ONCE per boot. 2nd Time it would prompt on the handset when I clicked the Bluetooth button.

Then I tried Cyberon Voice Commander. This works perfectly. But I can't get the Default to Stick across reboots. Every time I reboot I get "Complete Action Using" list. It works PERFECT after that and does not require the Network and does confirmation. There is no trial you have to buy and you have 12 minutes to test it. I think we should start a petition against Google on that. You should have 24 hrs to evaluate.

If I uninstalled Google Search I can get it to Cyberon to Stick (because it's the only choice on Bluetooth and does not prompt at all). But if you do that you lose Voice initiated Navigation which I use all the time. Google Voice Dial also works fine on the handset.

Some folks suggested Slingo, but I hate trying yet another app.

I've tried suggestions of repairing headset I even tied a full wipe.

I'm on MeanBean 1.1 but I doubt that has anything to do with it.

One way to fix it is, I believe, there must be a way to take Bluetooth Voice Dial out of Google Searches "capabilities" manifest. So that Cyberon is the only app for Bluetooth.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
It was actually Vlingo not Slingo that someone suggested.

It appears Dragon Speech Folks acquired them or something.

Any way Dragon Mobile Assistant (Beta) and is free

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nuance.balerion&hl=en

It so far is working excellent !!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Never mind Dragon is "Broken" over Bluetooth too.

It doesn't actually switch to the Headset MIC.

It has amazing recognition and still a very nice app.

But if the phone is in my pocket in the Car it's not gonna work which is what I'm trying to fix.

I covered the Mic's to test it over Bluetooth and got Nuttin.

Grrrr.

Back to Cyberon which is the closest to working.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Fixed and works :)

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lostsoul77:
Did you try AVX (Android Voice Xtreme)? Works very well....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Yes, are you using it on a Bluetooth Headset?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Quick question what is the issue? I am on MeanBean 1.3 and I have no issues with my bluetooth headset(s) or my car radio.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Read the Google Bug in the OP.

Also read a post I made a few replies up to a work around to get Cyberon to work even better.

Bluetooth VOICE dial over headset cannot find contacts.

Cars do their own voice regonition to their own uploaded contacts.

Once a call is established the Bluetooth headset works fine. Or if a call comes in.

The Handset Voice Dial also works fine.

It's broken on all phones that are on 4.1.X JB. It's said to be fixed in 4.2.X

You can fool yourself into thinking that it works if say you only call your Favorites (because I think it prioritizes those).

It will also work if I Clear Caches for a few minutes. It's like it builds a bogus regonition cache for the headset.

If you only have a dozen contacts it might work.

I have 400 Contacts. It can find my wife every time, but not a single other contact works.

ICS Google Search worked fine.

There are almost 200 replies to the bug on Google all kinds of devices.

It was also broken on ICS ROMs that added Google Now from JB 4.1.
[HTC Droid DNA] bb12489:
I read a few days ago about DSB's kernel that could enable write to system and was really excited to try it out! I wanted to wait till after xmas with the family to mess with my phone an all, but now I come back here tonight and see that ONE guy seemed to have pissed off the dev so that all the download links were pulled. I completely understand why the dev did this, and i'm not here to argue about this, although it is kinda disappointing coming back to dead links :(

My main question is, is there anyone else out there doing kernel development for the DNA? And possibly anyone else that can figure out the write to system without ripping off DSB's work? Also what does this mean for the future development of our phone? Is it going to stall until another kernel dev comes along?

[HTC Droid DNA] CastleBravo:
I'm downloading the kernel source from HTC right now, and am going to look around and see if I can figure out how to enable write to system. I know a lot about how the security works from back when HTC first implemented it with the addition of the new eMMC memory back on the G2/Desire Z. It probably won't be hard to identify the code that does it, and probably not too hard to change it either. The security works by sending a command to the eMMC (internal storage, commonly referred to as the NAND, even though NAND isn't used any more) telling it to write protect certain partitions. This protection is set each time the phone starts as it resets when the eMMC loses power. All that has to be done (at least probably) is to prevent it from sending that command, and the /system partition will be writable.

If I figure out how to do it, I'll post on here for any kernel devs interested.
[HTC Droid DNA] tbot:
dsb was the only one really doing any kernel dev for us, so as a result of that one asshat, yes we're stuck without any kernels.

I can't tell from my phone, but I really hope the guy that drove dsb off was banned, as there's no reason for a dev to have to leave like this.

Sent from outer space...
[HTC Droid DNA] dr_drache:
no, that guy was not banned, he goes from telling the mods to STFU that he can do what he wants (in aug) to telling a mod to stop playing god when he posted in the wrong forum, then he's an asshat in DSB's thread.

mods claimed they took care of it, but after seeing everything he's done, and nothing goes on, and people get perm bans for much less,

last i checked DSB is not coming back, even though the mods claimed that it won't happen again.

EDIT, his account is now disabled....
[HTC Droid DNA] BFirebird101:
You're literally all we have on this phone. Please don't just leave

I'm surprised he wasn't banned for treating moderators like that. It's a shame DSB couldn't just ignore the dude, there will always be asshats.

I am human, and I reacted.

It's over now. How about we move on.

Understandable that you're pissed and I realize you ultimately do this for your own fun and lastly for the community; but don't let one guys douche like comments ruin it for you. Take a break for a bit and come back to do some more work for the DNA and far more of us will be grateful than not.

[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
If you have stock firmware, as soon as you plugged in your dock it should update, if it not updating, you just reflash Asus full firmware with tablet in the dock.

I believe that dock firmware is normally updated automatically when needed when installing the tablet firmware (if needed)... At least thats how I remember it (there really aren't many dock updates).

Alright I got the answer. Only the people who have the tf201 dock get the current 207 updates. For those of you who have the tf500dock or the tf700 docks, the. 105 firmware is the most recent. I that's why some people don't get update prompts for the dock and some do
