Here is an image of my battery drain screen showing what my mobile data is supposedly doing despite not being able to get a true data connection. Even with my wifi off, there is supposedly medium mobile signal.

And attached is another image of what happens when I turn my wifi off. I pulled the notification pane down and you can see that it says "no internet connection" at the bottom. Also, you can't really see it in that cap, but the mobile data bars behind the notification area are colored white, and there isn't any "H+", "4G", or "LTE" notifiers visible.

Edit: Attached a third image showing the "white" signal bars (i.e. no data connection). Yes, my mobile data is turned on, and I'm obviously not in airplane mode.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xybur:
I figured it out eventually for anyone interested... Apparently the APN were not set. They existed on the APN list but were not visible due to a glitch in the ROM I guess. I had to add a custom APN and then the other ones suddenly appeared.

Thanks anyway.

i'm new to android, and i am wondering, why are there apps, that are randomly starting up in the background, even when all the connectivity the phone is disabled?

same thing with some games, it annoys the hell out of me, when i close a game, only to find it running again a few minutes later?

why is android doing this? is there some way to deal with it? running and closing apps in the background isn't extending my battery life.
[General Questions and Answers] devwithzachary:
Its not extending your battery life because they are not using battery life, well not very much at all.

Android handles its own memory in its own way, not like windows etc.

Apps are kept in memory to make it quicker to switch to them, but they do not using processor time etc.

If memory starts to run out android kills unneeded apps to free ram for new apps

As the title says, I want to be able to have the soft keyboard pop up as usual regardless if a hard KB is plugged in or not. I've been through all the settings I can think of and can't find anything. Oddly at one point the soft KB was popping up even though the hard KB was plugged in and both worked fine, but I haven't been able to recreate that after a reboot. I've done some searching and there seems to have been some people who have addressed this but they show some code but I don't know how to use it or where to put it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arklazak:
Hi All,

I just received a used Galaxy Nexus from a buddy and wanted to root and flash it up to 4.2. It is currently at 4.1.1 JRO030.

Everything seems to work fine (phone is not activated yet - no SIM - still need to transfer number), but other than that all is a go. I can see the phone via ADB in Linux and Windows. When I boot in to the bootloader though fastboot will not see the device. The volume keys do not change the menu (stays on START) and I have to pull the battery to reboot. The bootloader does show as being unlocked.

I have tried factory Reset (multiple times)

Linux and Windows - SDK

Wug's Nexus Root ToolKit - followed all the instructions from multiple sources.

Again - ADB works and sees the device and I can use "adb reboot bootloader" with no problem. When the bootloader comes up (either via ADB or 3-button power up) I am stuck.

Any help is appreciated.

Pax,

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
Make sure u are in USB debugging and make sure the drivers are installed right on your computer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arklazak:
Thanks for the quick reply.

The USB Debugging is enabled (first thing I did as I have unlocked and rooted other devices) and USB drivers are correct and working since ADB sees the device correctly. Also, it is my understanding that USB Debugging does not apply when the bootloader is up.

One thing I just noticed in Windows (XP) is that when the phone reboots into the bootloader, the ADB devices go away in device manager.

Any idea why the bootloader is unresponsive - seems locked. It seems as if the bootloader is not loading completely - since the volume buttons do not work and a battery pull is necessary.

Pax,

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] g_what:
This worked for me:

rootzwiki -> Google/Nexus Devices -> Galaxy Nexus -> "Galaxy Nexus Root Procedure - (broken) ADB Method Dont USE" -> page 3, second to last post on the page (by litso):

"EDIT: Scratch that, was able to use the PDANet drivers. Install PDA Net, reboot into bootloader, open device manager, manually select the directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\PdaNet for Android\usbwin". Fastboot will then recognize the device and allow you to unlock."

I can't post a link because I am a 'new user' due to low number of posts, but that is the path to your solution. I literally just went through this yesterday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arklazak:
Thanks g_what. I will look at it and try it out this weekend - on the road for work right now - and report back. On the plus side, I have been able to get the phone rooted (from Linux) without the bootloader - thanks to efrant's thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1894717

You need to flash either unlocked 3.3.2 or 3.3.3 firmware to run ICS Roms.
[HTC Sensation] drivn2fast:
Nice thread jack aty.

I think with you requirements, Elegancia may be the best. If you get rid of Sense, HyperNonSense is a great ICS rom. Other JB roms are good, but the battery life keeps me coming back to HNS.

[HTC Sensation] pdbc:
ViperS 3.1.4: very good Sense JB ROM with tweaks and so on. I got only a little bug with headphones. If you use headphones without mic, and so need to talk into the phone's mic, then sometimes you are not able to send your speech...you receive very well, but you're not able to talk.(Before someone asks, I use very high quality headphones but unfortunately they are without mic. Listening a lot of music by my mobile during the day, this to talk into the phone's mic is the only way to continue my habits.)

Elegancia: very good Sense ICS ROM with some tweaks (less than ViperS). No bugs found by me, good battery life, but glitches with Maps 7.0, due to hacks in adreno libs. You must downgrade app to Maps 6 (anyway, link is provided in the thread).

CM 10.1 & 10.2 (albinoman, a1-7, etc.): no-Sense ROM, good performance, a lot of available modifications and personalizations, but camera quality is not as Sense ROM, no way to obtain same quality. In some cases, camera app FC, and that's could be a very annoying thing when you want to capture that exact moment!

Actually I use ViperS 5, a Sense 5 JB ROM. No bugs (neither the one with the headphones), good quality pictures, no tweaks (at least, for the moment). IMHO Sense 5 is not so great because of a sort of "relaxing" in design (someone likes that, mine is only an opinion), but this ROM is the one able to give me what I desire at the moment, even if not at all. I'm waiting for a stable CM11 (albinoman's, dominos', a1-7's, no matter whose) with a no bug camera: I tried some version: speed is terrific (it seems like to have a brand 2014 new phone in your hand), and available tweaks/personalizations will be enough to let me forgive the bad quality of the camera.

Everything I wrote, obviously, is from my experience, so someone could be not agree with me.
[HTC Sensation] Abdullahku:
Vipers with sense 5 is one of the best

I'm using vipers with sense 5, OS: 4.1.2, one of the best Rom I have tried, and the Rom update will come soon with many fixes :D :D

If I dont click the power button to turn off my screen my phone freezes then I have to take the battery out. Been getting this glitch with every Team Venom rom (seen it on the sense 4+ and 5.0 rom). Its not the kernel or any app bugs. Its in the rom itself. I've switched to the revelation rom by SebastianFM. Bug free and I sense 4+ so not that bad. Its not really a rom I would use for a long period of time. Well thats that. 3 stars for sense 5.0 rom. 4 stars for revelation rom.

What I cant understand is why people are downloading the ics rom when the acer a500 auto updates to ics when you update your update service?

another question, I believe black thunder is an app that flashes roms and it gives you an sbk, and you put the "0" in front of the cpuid to do this

but what about clockwork rom manager? do I still need to do this or can I just backup with titaniam and run the zip off my sd card?

and im sorry but im painstaiking at this moment to find the roms for ics...I fould a list and FLEX-resurrection caught my attention although iv'e seen no screen shots or anything on it where might I find that,?
[Acer Iconia A500] gsurath:
ROM's are way better than stock

Hi Zolteck,

ROM flashing to ICS was begun even before we got official ICS. Separately, ROMs by their nature are to allow some of us to do more with our devices than is possible with Stock eg extend battery/Overclock/USB audio/USB 3G. Also sometimes we can add features from future Android releases. In essence ROM's are super customizable and allow the user to convert his device for his purposes.

One of the issues that came with stock ICS was that its bootloader was locked thus preventing us from flashing new ROM's. There are many ways to now to circumvent this Blackthunder app being on of those. Thus, if you are on stock ICS you need to load CWM after unlocking. I am partial to this tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1675939. After unlocking you can run the zip file from your SD card and then reinstall your apps using Titanium Back up.

There are lot of ICS ROMs in the development forum. I encourage you to also give a couple of Jelly Bean ROMs a rip.

Best of luck and happy flashing

Simply update kernel or change to another like alfs kernel.

You've got stock kernel now, If you still have the problems, it's not a kernel-fault. And I don't think our phones have the alfs-kernel available, i think that that was only cooked for the x8 or x10 (big one).

Can someone please explain to me why this happens, and also give me a solution to correct they problem. Thanks guys

The Media Storage gets confused when you flash a new ROM. Go to your apps through settings, and look for "Media Storage" under "ALL". Force stop it, and then clear data. It will take a bit to rebuild the music library once you open your music player, but once it does you won't have any duplicates anymore.
