Havent tried that yet since im on stock rom, but figured out that if i pull out the sd card it works perfectly :S
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alucard1989pl:
So . . . try format your sdcard . . . maybe it'll help . . .
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-fany:
Go to cwm and then advanced - fix permissions

Should work now correctly again
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChelebiTech:
In sdcard check the folder

.android_secure

Where the programs installed. One of them must be causing the problem. Uninstalling them by one by might help to solve the problem.

And if you have backed up with cwm, cwm folder might couse the problem sometimes.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corndude:
Bought my nexus 4 in Germany and now tried a swedish sim-card (telenor) but all I get is "no simcard". The exact same card works perfectly on my old sgs2.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avink:
umm, doesn't the SGS2 use a regular size SIM and not micro-SIM which the nexus 4 uses? Odds are you're probably already aware of this.

I've tried a 'foreign' SIM card and it worked fine on my phone (Etisalat from the UAE on a Canadian bought phone).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corndude:
Yes it does ;) I'm using an adapter for my sgs2 ;) Same card though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cheesethief:
Perhaps the adapter is the problem, making the connection between the Sim and phone weak, etc.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avink:
he would probably use the adapter on the SGS2 and not the Nexus 4.

Best bet is always to test another SIM on your phone. I doubt it is an issue with the phone but that is probably the best way to find out.

Not really sure of what else to suggest. Like I said, I've tried SIMs from different countries in this phone and they work fine.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corndude:
Yeah an adapter for the nex4 wouldn't make much sense.

I don't have another swedish sim, but my german one works without problems. Maybe I should ask a buddy.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swhitti:
I recently travelled to Hong Kong and put in a SIM that I bought from there and it worked great.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaitthedork:
Hey everyone,

I used to have a Sidekick 4G that was rooted and ROM'd so Im not neccessarily a noob to this, but still a bit. I bought an LG Optimus T (T-Mobile) as a replacement for my broken Sidekick. I'd had the phone before so I knew it was a decent phone, and for $40 on eBay, a deal I couldn't pass up.

Here's the story: I rooted my phone and got a ROM loaded on New Years Day. ROM was fine, but I decided I wanted to change to a newer version of CyanogenMod this past Saturday(1/5). So after testing out a few ROM's, I came across one that unfortunately didn't flash properly. When I tried to go to use the phone, the main Android OS crashed. I had a black screen with the nav bar displaying no SIM card(which was accurate), the time, battery life, and no signal. Once my boyfriend got home and was able to get the phone to finally boot into CWM and flash into the new ROM, even with my SIM card in, I had no signal. I thought maybe it was an issue with the APN so I went in to try to fix it and none were listed. When trying to add one it, it never saved.

My recovery in CWM goes back to the broken ROM, unfortunately. When trying to unroot, Superuser begins to not respond when its trying to uninstall either busybox or Superuser. The phone works fine, I can connect to WiFi and use it and everything.

My question for you today is does anyone have a recovery of the stock ROM that they can post that I can flash into, or any tips on how to fix this? I thought maybe my SIM card is fried for Android, so I thought of calling into T-Mobile to have them activate a spare I have laying around, but would that fix the issue?

I really appreciate any help that you guys can provide. Thanks in advance!
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidisfuture:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfuller4:
Is there any way to change the startup splash screens with a rooted next book 8P running 4.04? I get three startup screens, Linux(penguin), the Android emblem, both about four seconds long, and finally the next book emblem, for about 10 -15 seconds. I upgraded from 2.3 to 4.0 with the ROM from Marxo. Worked great! Many thanks.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] naporeon:
I'd like to start by apologizing for what is probably the 9,000th "help, I've bricked my phone!" thread. I did some searching, and while I found many, I wasn't able to find one that both dealt with my specific issue, and did so assuming a level of newbishness appropriate for me.

Months ago, I rooted my AT&T Galaxy SIII, and installed CM10. It's been all candy and rainbows since. This morning, I somewhat foolishly decided to update from a nightly I installed in October/November, to the January 7 CM 10.1 nightly, using the built-in updater I had previously used to switch to a nightly.

It worked...sort of. I guess I should have cleared my cache or something ahead of time, because almost all of my GAPPS stopped working. Woops! Figuring that I should probably stop dicking around with my phone until I learned a bit more, I just went back and told the phone to switch back to the nightly I from October/November that I was previously using.

It didn't work. My phone now reaches the CM boot animation and just...sits there. And sits there. And sits there. To complicate the issue, I cannot get the phone to boot into recovery mode (although admittedly, I'm too thick to know what I'm meant to do once I'm there anyway). I CAN get the phone into download mode, but not being sure what I should do there, I thought it best to consult you all on what to do next.

I'm happy to give any additional information needed, and I hope it goes without saying that I am extremely thankful for any help you all can offer.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
Try to get it back into recovery by taking the battery out, putting it back in and then holding volume up, home, and power. If you are sure you can't get it into Recovery, but know for sure you can get it into Download, go into Download and flash stock and go from there. These aren't bricks. These are just whoops. Lol.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
If you can reach download mode, you'll be okay. What you want to do is use Odin to flash a rooted stock image; from there, you should be able to get back to a point where you can re-install a custom recovery of your choice and try flashing your favourite ROM again.

For the record, it's always a good idea to clear data/cache when changing ROMs, or changing between major revisions of a ROM (such as CM10 -> CM10.1) to avoid this sort of problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shoestar:
Actually, you should always wipe cache and dalvik when flashing the update. If it is a major update like 4.1.2 to 4.2.1, then you should wipe cache, wipe dalvik, Factory Reset, Format System then flash your ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gunz.jones:
Move important files to SD using twrp file manager. Put rom on SD with gapps. Format internal, wipe caches, format system, factory reset, load ROM, load gapps. Reboot.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] naporeon:
I did this, being careful to follow all the instructions provided. Odin seemed to think everything worked, and after about 10 minutes, it rebooted the phone.

However, it still gets stuck. Now, since CM is no longer installed, it just sits at the SAMSUNG logo forever.

It still boots into download mode, and will now boot into recovery as well. Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
Boot to recovery and clear data and cache.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macmac49:
So I have a 32GB Nexus 7 on Rom SBean. (4.2.1) I installed Chainfire and was reading through the supported devices, and I thought nexus 7 was supported so I installed it. It then rebooted my Nexus 7 and was on a bootloop. I thought hmm, Time to flash a clean rom. So I turned off the nexus and was trying to boot to rom with my button keys. I held them for a good long 1 minute and nothing. Did I screw up? or can I fix this issue?

help is very much appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
boot into your bootloader, then into recovery, wipe your data(factory reset), then reflash your rom. why would you want to use chainfire on your nexus 7, its a quad core device? you dont need to make these apps/games think that you have another device.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HUYI:
i've rooted my device with the Exynos exploit and installed titanium backup pro but i am not sure where to start when it comes to transferring app data to a sd card, any tips? can anyone recommend me some app data to sd apps that are simple to use and does the job?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Specialp:
Now that you have root you have 2 options I'm aware of for our device. What your trying to accomplish is a link between your actual data folder where apks get installed by default on your internal memory to a replicated directory on your external storage. The device will install data to its default location but then this link will just move it for you to the mirrored directory. Zedomax and tweaker have both made a script to do this. Tweakers script seems to be a cleaner better method but is more user intensive to implement. Zedos script, which im using now is simple to use and it gets the job done. I've had no issues using it on any rom that has init.d support. Stock firmware will not work however, even with root so you'll need to install a rom with init.d support. Theres the recent stock jelly bean in android dev that has this now. Also our dev community has been busy and you got a few choices if youd like a custom rom as well.

To make that happen youll need a custom recovery that youll install with a pc program called odin. Thats a simple procedure shouldnt take more than a few minutes. Also you could do the same with an android app called mobile odin though I haven't done it this way myself so I may not be the best person to ask how. After the recovery has been installed youd want to backup your stock rom then flash your init.d supported rom of choice after a full wipe, then once thats completed flash zedos script, reboot and then everyones favorite: profit!!

If your still reading this at this point and thinking youd like to give it a shot let me know, I can point you to the relevant threads and maybe fill in some blanks on some areas where you need to read between the lines. Good luck and know I think its worth the time my redemption install is terrific, definitely an improvement over stock jellybean imo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahfu25:
Im at a dead end and wanted to ask here on xda about this. My bill to carrier option just stopped showing up as an option. This is on bone stock unrooted. I contacted google and verizon and Im at a dead end with this. Funny thing is if I create a new email bill to carrier becomes an option but on my main email address, that has all my purchases attached to it, bill to carrier is not an option. Im on 4GLTE not wifi. Any ideas why this happened?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Cowql8er:
Same issue

I'm curious to know if you've gotten this resolved. I'm having the exact same issue. I spent 28 minutes on the phone with Verizon today, but am beginning to think it's a Google problem since I can access the feature when I add another email.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
i know they take away this option if you've been late on bills before...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1stx2:
Mine disappeard last month (not late on my bill) and just popped back up a few days later. I figured it was a system glitch since it hasn't happened again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
i know my friend can't bill anything to their line whether on google play or on their website. he has been historically late on paying his phone bills and the vzw rep said that the option goes away after you've been late a certain amount of times.

i don't know if it is true, but he can't bill stuff to his acct, and i can.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
its a tower defense style game been searching for this game for android for a while and cant find it (must be cause its not made for android) Its for the iOS i was playing it on my nephews ipod touch . its not a new game its been out for a while but addictive . Wondering if anyone could port it over to android

heres a video of it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ha1JlR2Aw0

TIA
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
lol seriously? :facepalm:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
Whats the facepalm for????

I seriously would like to have this game on my android phone (Epic touch ).

I know the game is for iOS .

I know i should try contacting the developer (which im trying to find out how is the best method right now)

I know its not easy to have a game ported, as it is themes, and roms are hard but the developers on here do a crazy job and have alot of knowledge and this could be something they might want to do.

I dont use any iOS device but my nephew was playing it on christmas and i liked the game.

If the developer of the game would to ported to Android and put on the play store i would purchase it .

again im trying to find the contact info for this developer..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tha_Dynasty2049:
radiant defense is sooo much better and its in hd and on android
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheAtheistOtaku:
the face palm is for this

you know all of this, yet you still ask for it to be ported. no one but the developer will port it because its illegal (im pretty sure) to do, especially if its a paid app.

and if its an old game, then chances are the developer will never port it because if he had any plans to, it would of been done already.

so in conclusion

facepalm
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
i was hoping someone might have already seen it available or maybe knew it was in the works for android. I had searched over and over and i coudlnt find it but sometimes i might not have been looking in the right place. regardless that facepalm can be shoved up your A$$..

I'm an Android developer and wrote JavaScript code that will hide unpublished apps from the Developer Console.

You can either create a bookmark and run it every time you load your console or use my Greasemonkey script to automatically hide the unpublished apps.

I hope that you guys find this useful.

Update: I just updated the script today (01-22-2014) to make it work again because I logged into the Android Developer Console and discovered that the script did not work anymore because Google made some changes to the Android Developer Console website.

If this script stops working again, please send me a private message to let me know so I can fix it Google seems to change the code pretty often and they make enough changes to the structure of the table that displays all of the apps you've uploaded that it causes my script to stop working.

I recently got a razr HD and i noticed my battery barely lasts a day. I had a flip phone before and it would last a week on one charge, i know i wont get the same type of battery life. I downloaded juice defender and set it to turn off my wifi/data when not in use. It has helped a bit since before that my phone would lose 2% battery an hour just in standby. I haven't downloaded any task killers, but when i'm done with my apps i go in to the settings and close them.

[RAZR HD General] Borderpatrol1987:
Two things to fix,

one, adjust your brightness to auto. The higher the brightness, the faster your battery dies, that is massive screen use.

two, poor wifi/cellular reception = ****ty battery, the phone uses more power to lock onto signal.

Dont use task killers, they do more harm than good.

I adjusted the brightness on my tbolt and I doubled battery life
[RAZR HD General] steve221:
Hmmmm. i wasn't very through with my post, but i have mine set on auto brightness. My wifi at home is usually 4 bars and 3 if im in the basement. I get 4 bars LTE for 95% of my day. In the main building on campus i get 1 bar if im lucky but usually its out of service so i depend on the wifi. The only thing i use my phone for is listening to music on my way to school, texting, email (but i set it to sync every hour), some light internet browsing, and calls.

Edit: Also on a sidenote is the smart actions useful? It seems like it does the same thing like juice defender.
[RAZR HD General] Borderpatrol1987:
yes, smart actions does the same thing with less battery,

UP your sync time! The more often you sync the more battery you use! I would put it on 4 hours and only sync if you need something important.

Turn of your cellular radios at school and that will help battery
[RAZR HD General] Motorolalover:
Clearly your screen is consuming most of the battery. Try lowering your brightness, If you used it to text and kept the screen on for long time.. it might have consumed battery in that period. Not sure if its helpful or not .. but here are my battery stats after a normal usage day. :)
[RAZR HD General] steve221:
The 3 hours in sync shouldn't be eating up my battery though, but i guess every bit helps.
[RAZR HD General] Borderpatrol1987:
This is after taking it off the charger at 0800, I use my phone all day with limited smart actions.
[RAZR HD General] steve221:
Do you think its my battery? I got suckered into the futureshop warranty and they said since my battery can't be replaced if anything happens to the battery they will replace my phone for one of an equal value or greater if i pay the difference.
[RAZR HD General] Borderpatrol1987:
nah, just change the sync settings to longer and set your brightness to auto and see what happens over the next few days and report back.
[RAZR HD General] senergy:
I noticed the biggest difference when turning off WiFi and mobile locations.

Also 4.1.2 seemed to increase my battery life dramatically too.
[RAZR HD General] steiger:
I don't think setting the brightness to Auto is the best for saving battery. When in auto, the light sensor is turned on and some processing has to be done to define the brightness every time the screen is turned on. And that consumes energy.

I always keep mine at 50% and, when in very bright places, I go for 100% brightness.
[RAZR HD General] steve221:
Hi again, today i disabled my wifi and data manually whenever i wasn't using them and manually enabled it whenever i needed it. It worked a lot better and i left my house with 85% charge and i used my phone a little bit more than yesterday and it used up a little bit over 25%. I also played around with my juicedefender settings and hopefully it will work better. I will set my brightness to 50%. I'll post back in a few days. And is my battery working properly, because i honestly expected it to last a lot longer. Also thanks for the suggestions.
[RAZR HD General] animez:
I really like 2x battery for controlling battery usage by data connections. There a light version as well. It basically turns off mobile data when the screen is off and turns it on when the screen is turned on. It can do the same for wifi as well. The light version will reconnect and sync everything every 15 minutes (or you can turn sync off). I paid for the full version and it allows you to change the sync time to longer increments. I use it mostly because I don't want to have to remember to toggle and where I work the 4G signal isn't so great.

Have the same problem! Brightness is low, internet is off, when I don't need it, still the battery is weak!
[RAZR HD General] alcaloide_:
You said you had a flip phone before and the battery lasted a week, is this your first smartphone?

Smartphones have a 24 hour battery life at best, This phone has an above average battery I have had 48 hrs out of it..

other things to get in mind is the ROM you are using, I see you are on stock Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS have a good battery life, I have tried Telstra Jellybean and it was not as good, I also get excellent battery life with epinter's CM10
[RAZR HD General] idless:
I am very satisfied with the battery life! I also recommend x2 battery, which seems to prolong battery life with little to no impact on the usability of the phone (at most a potential short delay on emails when not on wifi). I generally use wifi whenever possible which use much less battery than the mobile modem. Also I have disabled a few stock apps that I don't use e.g. the non-gmail (stock) email app. The phone is not rooted and using stock o2 JB rom.
[RAZR HD General] alcaloide_:
Wow sick battery life, do you have the MAXX HD?
[RAZR HD General] idless:
I think it is as well. I admit it may be a little "inflated" by using Wi-Fi mainly rather but impressive nevertheless. Wi-Fi or not I generally experience good battery life. I have the normal non-Maxx edition bought in Germany September last year.
