[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] master_image:
When i put the device into fastboot mode and run the command "fastboot oem lock" i've got this message on the screen: "The system.img is not a official image"
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] master_image:
I am assuming that no one knows... now i screwed up things and i deleted my recovery img, tablet doesn't enter recovery mode anymore. Please guys i'm begging you, i'm desperate...what should I do???
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
You cannot "re-lock" your bootloader once you have unlocked it. Although, a few users have has success re-locking it after installing certain ICS stock roms. You may have to try several ICS stock roms and get lucky.

You can get a stock recovery image for the 700/701 here in the dev forum. Just make sure you select the one for your OS. (ICS-JB). Don't mix them.

Typically, once you do OEM unlock, you will not be able to get OTA updates. 50-50

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] master_image:
Thank you, i've made it reinstalling recovery image, everything working fine. From what I understand my warranty is gone, even if I install ICS they will know.

I can install updates but only manually...renaming file in update.zip but before modifying in "META-INF"...google...com the updater script the line with "assert prop".

On the end of the update (flashing update.zip trough cwm) proces i got the question if i want to keep cwm recovery, when not stock was installed. (or am i confused?)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sambahb:
My SIII just arrived and I have started checking out if I install a mod rom. It seems like there are different roms and I wonder if there is a kind of feature comparison list between different roms and also between mods and stock. I do not want to start a discussion about which one is the best, but it would be nice to have and overview on how different roms compare to each other so that I can make an informed decision based on my own criteria. Does such a list exist? I could not find googling, but may be I just used the wrong search terms. But may be such a list exists anyway? Can someone point me to it? If such a list does not exist, is there at least any list of things which I win/loose by installing a mod over stock? Can I preserve apps from the stock rom which do not exists in mods manually? What I would like to know very specifically if there is the danger of loosing the Dropbox 50GB extra memory if I use a mod.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikufellow:
Afaik no such list exists and i don't really think that we wil see any such lists/reviews in future also - simply because its way too tedious to make . So as of now your only chance is to try each one out by yourself and decide what suits you best ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
Hmmm, as far as I know, no, but you can try them yourself which will give you more precise feeling about them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sambahb:
:( very bad. Why is it way to tedious to make? There should be at least some objective criteria

Like:

- what Apps, Kernels, widgets, tools are installed?

- what are the self claimed goals?

- what is it based on? Which Android version? Base on (which) Cyanogenmod?

- development status: Alpha, Beta, Stable

- How many updates in what time?

- How long does it exit?

Is there at least a list of things which will most likely not be in a mod compared to stock?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
I guess, with all the updated, it will take a huge effort and time investment to keep the list up-to-date, hence better compare the ROMs in their threads
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeznon:
I think something like this would be very helpful but hard to make due to updates.

But most ROMs are basically the same.
[HTC One S] r0man.de:
Hey there,

I'm getting a huge battery drain, when my phone crashes.

Can someone interpret what could be going on at 06:00AM (unfortunately betterbatterystats won't show anything)?

It stopped using the phone at 04:00AM and started using it again at 08:50AM, so there must be some activity while idle (WLAN issues?).

Thanks a lot!

PS: ROM: nonsense Build-5 / Elemental 2.1 Kernel at 1,5Ghz
[HTC One S] usaff22:
At one point you turned the device off - after restart it was lower on battery, then you stopped using it as much, then used it again (still on WiFi)
[HTC One S] r0man.de:
As mentioned, I stopped using it at ~ 04:00AM. I wasn't awake while the graph began going down.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
I only see it go down when in use.
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Give cpuspy a try. You find it on the market.
[HTC One S] r0man.de:
Thanks, I'll try out cpu spy.

Here's the screen again with some explanations, maybe it's more clear now:
[HTC One S] Darknites:
The ringed bit says its in use but you say it isn't so I guess a ghost is using it or you are.

Edit, and the white/grey line in the middle looks like a reboot.

Edit, hmm to me it could be the odd battery drain that pops up here and there and a reboot fixes it and on yours its draining but your phone is not liking it for some reason and reboots which in turn fixes the bug but this is based on you not using it like you say.
[HTC One S] ironclaw22:
Duo you have someone else with access to the phone. Maybe someone used it while you were sleeping cause the graph says it was active with the screen on.

Sent from my HTC One S
[HTC One S] Darknites:
I also thought that but why the reboot its on both of his pics.

Edit, hahaha they both the same pic but still why the reboot if someone was using it.

---------- Post added at 06:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:11 AM ----------

Think I sort of know what's up if no one really used it. As you see the wifi is off and thats down to HTC thinking thats its a good idea to force data off at night. The issue starts at the time data should come back on like it does in the pic but I think its bugging out which then drains it but the part that is bugging out is at guess spamming the cpu with something and locking it up. This if I remember right other people have also said they had a crashing in the morning.
[HTC One S] ironclaw22:
If the cpu outs getting spammed why would there be little times during the drain where the phone goes inactive and the screen shuts off? If something was pegging the cpu, the active bar would have been solid, no?

Sent from my HTC One S
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Ya I would agree to that but it does depend on what is really happening and now for some reason I thinking its the wifi and could maybe explain the issues with wifi people are having and the morning reboots and maybe even the random ones but all of this depends on the phone not really been used buy someone but even going with someone was using it why would they reboot the phone.
[HTC One S] MrToastedAndroid:
Try another go through with this and try to replicate what you did when you first checked the battery chart.
[HTC One S] r0man.de:
AW: [Q] Who can interpret this battery graph?

There really were no ghosts or other people in the room ;)

I updated my Radio to 1.11 and it seems to be pretty solid now. Cpuspy shows to me that everything is fine (high deepsleep share). Is there an HTC Wifi fix for the mentioned issues?

Thanks again
[HTC One S] Darknites:
No fix as far I know and I'm only guessing at the issue but need more people with reboot issue to post the same screenshot and see if im right or not.
[General Questions and Answers] ajay23983:
i have i9100 which was on 2.3.5. i did something stupid with it and rooter my phone ,upgraded to RR JB Rom with Siyah kernel. Since then my phone was very cranky. the battery used to drain down very fast. read a few threads and turned the wifi off when on sleep, never went to 3g network and i used it only for phone calls and msgs but it still wouldn't stay longer than 3-4 hrs before the battery drains.

a little later to add to my misery, the phone used to shutdown randomly. each time this happens i connect the charger and power it on. when the charger is connected, the battery shows 80% but when removed phone shuts down.

i tried to re-calibrate the battery going to recovery mode nogo.

so i decided to downgrade to ICS. i am now on an official ROM by Ssamsung for S2. Un-rooted the phone. same issue here as well. i open you tube , Fb, Dolphin Browser, the phone shuts down. i think this is happening only when i use internet.

i don't see wipe battery stats at all now in recovery mode to re-calibrate my battery.

i am stuck and need help. very close to throwing this phone away and settling with a cheaper one. please help!!!!!!!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilfellabob:
Hey all,

My old galaxy s2 would have the song, artist and album names all show on the headunit's display, as well as controls for repeat and shuffle.. However my nexus 4 is not sending any of this info across.. I can however still play, pause and skip tracks with the headunits controls. I am using the stock 4.2.1 rom and music player.

Any idea how to fix this/why it's happening?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Avarell_Dalton:
Sv: Bluetooth Track Names Not Appearing

From what I've read somewhere Google changed something in BT protocol in 4.2 and people are awaiting a fix. Perhaps this is the problem. Google and see what you find

... . -. - ...- .. .- - .- .--. .- - .- .-.. -.-
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilfellabob:
hmm I googled my problem and couldn't find anything relevant, googling for a bluetooth problem in 4.2 found a few reports of a bug that causes BT dropouts and lag but no mention of track names.. Still, it could be the same. Thanks for the reply!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamUpNorth:
It's not a bug. Stock Android uses AVCRP v1.0 that only supports control via Bluetooth.

To get control and song info (aka meta data) you need v1.3. Some manufactures like Samsung and LG as well as some custom roms use v1.3.

Hopefully Google will put in v1.3 in the coming versions of android.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s10shane:
the only phone that ever displayed my track info to my sony head unit, was samsung phones. htc didnt do it and none of the nexus devices did it. now i believe it did work if your run cm 10.1.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zookalicious:
CM 10.1 is built off the bluetooth stack used in 4.2 so it does not send track info to a bluetooth device either.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobdude:
Avrcp 1.3 also supports album art as well. I remember they got it to work on cm something with the stock music app and Google music. Not the album art portion though. Also I have never seen Pandora support the protocol. So the app also needs to support the feature.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s10shane:
Yeah but on my old HTC one s. I put cm 10.1 on it and it worked fine. That's what I loved about cm roms lol
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilfellabob:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerbetta33:
Howdy, gentlemen (and gentleladies) I have quite a few questions regarding the note 2. I know my way around android, these are about the device itself. As questions are answered, I will update the OP with the solutions / answers for reference, so others might learn from my ignorance :D

I bought a flip cover case, not the genuine samsung case, but one off ebay. It doesnt have an indentation for the home button so it is constantly being turned on. Is there a fix, preferably without rooting, for this? Maybe using the proximity sensor?

With the same flip case, I would like to know if it is at all possible to have the devices screen automatically turn on when it is opened, and turn off when it is shut? (Think "iPad with its magnetic cover") Possibly through the use of NFC tags or proximity sensor? The proximity sensor would have obvious issues with other things interfering. SOLUTION FOUND: DOWNLOAD "SIMPLE COVER LOCK" FROM PLAY STORE.

Are there mods that allow selecting something using the S-Pen's button, while it is in the air? Maybe using it to highlight text while in the air or click the button to register an input? I do a lot of copy and pasting and a feature like this can greatly improve productivity.

Is it possible to get the S-Pen to be able to push the soft keys? I absolutely hate having to continually change my hand posture whenever I need to access the back key or open a menu. Maybe, building on my previous question, have some sort of air gesture with the S-Pen button depressed that performs the actions of the soft buttons? WORK-AROUND, NO TRUE SOLUTION YET: GESTURE < AND ^ WITH S-PEN BUTTON DEPRESSED FOR BACK AND MENU ACTIONS, RESPECTIVELY

My last question is simple. Is the LED indicator an RGB LED? Like the one on the galaxy nexus that can be changed to any color? It would be cool to have different notification colors per app, blue for facebook, green for messaging and so on. ANSWER: YES

I appreciate the help, normally I would use my Google-fu but I much prefer answers from other users.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerbetta33:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nmw407:
I can somewhat answer the first question. There are apps that allow you to use the proximity sensor to turn off and on the screen. A couple that I've personally tried are Intellicover and Auto Screen on. There's also Screen Lock and Off that allows you to turn off your screen by tapping a button. These work well, but if your flip cover is constantly bumping the home button, using these apps won't do anything different as your home button will still get bumped and then the screen will constantly turn on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 2747343:
the best app to use for turning on the screen automatically is "simple cover lock" its a small free app that does just what it says it was created for the note 2 and does what it needs to really good
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Beast84:
For the menu & back button question, hold the button on your s pen & draw a < on the screen to go back & a ^ for the menu

Edit: Also, Light Flow from the play store let's you control the LED lights
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerbetta33:
Thanks, seems to work fine for a beta, although it does show my homescreen for a second after the flip cover opens before going to the lock screen, even if it was already on the lockscreen when I shut it. I've never seen that happen with any lockscreen alternative, must be a bug. also, it gets kind of annoying if I accidentally move my hand over the proximity sensor and it shuts the display off, but the note is so big that this occurs rarely. Nonetheless, thanks :D

Thanks a lot, I feel like I should have known this one, but I can't recall there ever being any tips on this when the TouchWiz motion and gesture guides ran when I first booted my device. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 2747343:
to fix the screen turning off when you move your hand over you would need to change the "turn off screen after" time to 5 so it would take longer to turn off when you closed the cover, i dont have the lockscreen bug on my rooted note 2 running a 4.1.2 samsung rom
