[HTC One X+] Hurricanez:
Okay, the problem has something to do with Titanium Backup Pro!

Make sure you dont freeze HTC Media Link and Personalization!

I did it for hiding the Buttons in the App-Menu.

After rebooting my HOX+ the whole Sense Workspace was gone - nothing showed up, even after a few reboots.

Then I reactivated all freezed Applications in Titanium Backup Pro.

Now the volume rockers work proper for wakeup! :)

To threadstarter:

The Venom team done awesome work!

Get the ViperX+ ROM and re love your phone :)

just amazing!

Thanks.

I was wondering if there was a way to get free personal hotspot service. I wss planning on paying for it (14.99/month) but I cant add it to my account it conflicts with the features in my plan... Is there anyway I can do this, without using pdanet or any other apps like that? Also I don't mind rooting my device. Thanks in advance! :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrishoyt2012:
Conflicts with what features? There should be no issue adding hotspot to your plan even if you have unlimited everything. What plan are you on and what features do t ou have?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:
You can't get Hotspot with the Unlimited Data Plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrishoyt2012:
Ill check...I can see where you might not be able to...but if you pay...you should get...really you may be teathering wirelessly but then why do they call unlimited data unlimited if you cant add tge hotspot?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] camacho.kyle:
This is what happens when I try to add it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellstyrant:

You cant have Unlimited 4G Data and HotSpot. You have to choose if you want a "capped" plan + HotSpot or Unlimited 4G Data. T-Mobile is here to make money, just like any other company, and from that perspective it simply wouldn't make sense to let customers tether and eat up as much data as they want while still keeping the second cheapest data plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chibra:
Actually with the unlimited plan they do not offer hotspot service, I had the same issue when I joined tmobile so I rooted my phone and cm10 or 10.1 all you have to do is turn it on and you are ready to go

If you don't want to root you phone there is a app called open garden that allows you to share you internet connection to any other device using Bluetooth (as long as the device has 4.0 or newer OS), I haven't played with it to much but consumes less batter and also allows you to share with a desktop / laptop PC

Give it a shot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] camacho.kyle:
Oh... Didnt see that lol. Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] camacho.kyle:
I'll check that app out. Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chrishoyt2012:
T-mobile makes money...trust me on that...but unlimited means no data cap...which should mean infinite data usage...yet they always have that fine print thst zeros out "unlimited". Oh well.
[HTC One X] Jam0rama:
I've been following the steps provided here and am stuck at step 8 where I am unable to flash a custom recovery (i.e. CWM) no matter what i do!

I've tried rebooting the computer; resetting the phone and trying another computer but no go. I have s-off and SuperCID (11111111).

I'd like to know what else i should try? What am I doing wrong? Is this a driver problem?

I had issues with flashing the firmware also (actually flashing anything in general), but i just changed my CID to 11111111 and so was finally able to update the hboot (currently 1.39) and software (currently 3.17.728.1)

The error message i get when trying to flash the recovery through fastboot is :

sending 'recovery' (5742KB)...

OKAY [ 0.759s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.970s

I haven't unlocked my bootloader before flashing recovery because i assumed with a s-off HOX you didn't need to?

Please i need some advice as the ROM I started with (ARHD) is wiped out!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Remote not allowed is an error that pops up indeed when the bootloader is locked, just unlock it via the HTC dev site and flash again.

And your assumption is right but it does not seem to work in your case.
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Yeah. With S-OFF, you can probably set it back to **LOCKED** state when needed.

Sent from my One X
[HTC One X] Jam0rama:
Of course It's that simple! :s

Ok I'll try that right now, cheers.
[HTC One X] Jam0rama:
Thanks, but no touch on ARHD 18.1 :(

Thanks for that, it all worked out :) But I had the same issue that some people have with the touch screen not working, at all!

So I've just flashed the very first nandroid backup listed here since my original CID was HTC_023 and am now running on a stock android 4.1.1 Sense ROM.

It seems to be a problem with HTC_023 devices. These two threads (1) (2) discuss this issue further if anyone is interested.

So far there seems to be no progress in getting a custom ROM working with touch according to them, i think?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shreddintyres:
if im not mistaken most of the widgets from touchwiz require the dual modified framework-res.apks from touch wiz roms, Thus far no one has ported touchwiz to the gnex due to the proietary nature of touchwiz. So it is probably unlikely such a widget will become available for some time, some one correct me if im wrong.

you may want to look into widgets on the play store maybe youll find something to suit your needs there.

Theoretically if you can just push the apk to system/app and it just works you should be able to just download a touchwiz rom and extract the apk from there I personally have no interest in touchwiz applications I went nexus to get away from it

I off course mean to grab a touchwiz rom from the s3 or note sections

Yeahh that one is the one i had!! But Can remember if it worked on 4.2.1
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
Okay, I realize this is quite a common problem for Xperia S (the SonyMobile help forums are full of various Xperia S connectivity issue topics) but after spending hours and hours googling this problem I still haven't found a cure for it. So I'm hoping the supersmarts of the XDA community will help me find a solution.

Background:

* It's a normal Xperia S, updated to 4.0.4 officially (6.1.A.2.45).

* I did root it a few months ago to be able to get rid of some system apps (I made sure all the removed sysapps were non-critical) and to get more functionality out of it, but the problem didn't start after rooting. I used SystemApp Remover to backup all system apps (see attachment for applist).

* All essential root apps were installed, like LuckyPatcher, SuperSU etc.

Problem:

* One fine day (I can't pinpoint when but I noticed it last week) the phone wouldn't recognize PC anymore and neither did the PC recognize the phone.

* This is not correlated with rooting as I mentioned earlier - after initial rooting, this problem did not occur.

* When connecting to PC via USB, the phone treats the connection as a charger and just starts charging, the PC doesn't recognize anything at all, as if nothing had been connected via USB.

Tried so far:

* Tried different USB cables, 2 different PC's, different USB slots, tried disabling and re-enabling USB devices on PC.

* Tried re-installing PC Companion.

* Tried booting the phone in Safe Mode (volume down method).

* Tried Settings reset and Factory data reset (the phone is currently vanilla, just rooted).

* Rolled back all changes to system apps and reinstalled them with no issues.

Misc Info:

* I read about the MTPapp having a bug in Xperia S, something like a memory leak where it gets too big if Internal Storage is very full (which isn't the case, maintained 10GB of free space at all times + currently it's all wiped) but the funny thing is, I couldn't find an MTPapp in processes/all apps.

* One of the suggested fixes was navigating to All apps -> MTPapp, and clearing data, but there is no such app in the phone, just a "MTP extension service" which is idling at 0.00b.

* I'm not sure whether Xperia S should have a USB connection type setting in Settings -> Xperia -> Connectivity, but for me there is no option there to choose between USB connection. There's only a "Install PC Companion" setting, which I have set to "on" and a "No trusted hosts" setting which is grayed out so I can't access it.

***

Getting quite desperate and hoping you guys have some clever knowledge on what I should try to do. I am a little bit scared to take it back to the store due to root although I could try to unroot it and then go. So here's hoping :eek:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pharix:
Check THIS app. It work for me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
Installed the app, granted SU, connected phone to PC, still acts as charger is connected, PC doesn't recognize phone whatsoever, tried it with both Media Transfer and Mass Storage modes..

Thanks for the suggestion though.. :(

Edit: Maybe I should download a standalone MTPapp from another Xperia S and install it? Any suggestions?

If u have cw recovery

Go to it and mount the USB
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcoplo:
not one but five ;

usb-mpt backup transport.apk;

usb-mpt-marlin-wrapper.apk;

usb-mpt-update.apk

usb-mpt-vendor-extension -service.apk

usbtransport service.apk

thats the apps reponsible for usb respository

make sure you fix permission after wards

# check device manager as well in the windows !!! that might be a problem,

# reinstall drivers related to xperia LT26 driver corrupted

hope thats helps

Ps unless you use the sd-mounter.apk from xda- should make a trick either way
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
@ ToledoJab.. tried the debris approach and a 3rd USB cable (and 3rd PC)to no avail.

@ abd_alazeez2002.. I am not sure what the cw recovery is so it's probably safe to assume I don't have it.

@ marcoplo.. Should I just get these apps in the phone and install them? Device manager shows no trace of the device.. it could very well be that the drivers are corrupted but I haven't found a way of reinstalling them as the computer doesn't recognize anything when I connect the PC.. Any place to find an installer package for the drivers or the drivers themselves?

Edit: @ marcpolo - I managed to install only the UsbTransportService.apk, while the others gave an error of "Application not installed".. Should I just move this to a system folder, and if so, which one (I have root explorer so can access everything).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcoplo:
Copy and past to the $\system\app use the root explorer to do that, then the sub menu fix permission and restart try it if it work

if won't work run fix permission in CMW see if it work !!

did you try on other computers to see if it work

if not work my suggestion will be to re flash system !

what worries me is that device manger does not see it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
I put the 4 mptxxx apps to the system/app folder, changed their permissions to owner/everything and restarted - still no changes.

what is "run fix permission in CMW" ?

How do I flash the system? =/

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcoplo:
flashtool, the firmware you wanted or preferable ->zip in cmw easier !

wait what about sd-mount ???
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
Could you maybe direct me towards some links as to the flashing and a stock rom..

I tried the sd-mounter software posted above in this topic and had no luck..

Downloaded RecoverX from here.. didn't get to install it as the PC doesn't recognize that my device is connected.. =/
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
You may want to try using linux. You can boot a usb drive and try flashtool then. I can give more info if you want
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] moskwiz:
I know next to nothing about Linux and I don't have any friends who have it so that's not an option at this point..

So should I try to unroot the phone with OTA Rootkeeper (if so, should I uninstall all root-needing apps before or after unrooting, and what about SU) and take it to the warranty service with my fingers crossed or should I try to flash the phone (any methods of doing this without having to directly connect to PC)?

I read somewhere on Xperia forums that someone with the same problem had taken the device to the warranty service only to get a reply about static electricity having fried something on the mainboard, thus rendering the device unable to connect to PC.. Sounds sketchy, but it's a possibility, as nothing seems to be helping and due to the fact that this problem occurred on it's own so to speak.. =/

if it looks like this http://windows-exe-errors.com/wp-content/uploads/usb-device-not-recognized.gif

Then Your phone has a hardware issue/problem -> UNknown Device usb not recognised. Strongly suggest that you visit your local sony centre

You may try https://towelroot.com

Yo may also try to download the lasted flashtool install in default location which is in the C:// flashtool. Once you do that go to C://flashtool/driver/flashool-driver/ locate your device and install reboot your device . Make sure you will do that in the admin rights other wise it will not work. Please for God sake use win 7. Windows 8 have all sort of issues with unsigned drivers.

It *should* go with the IMEI number, but if they're anything like Samsung, they will do whatever they can to not honour the warranty if you aren't the original owner, but if there's no water damage or other signs of damage you should be OK.

If you have the original Play receipt from the buyer (and the buyer transferred the warranty), your device is covered by Google.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
The manufacturers warranty through LG is still good but they will not exchange a phone only repair them so you are out a phone for however long it takes to fix it. If it's really dead LG will send a new one but only after you send in the old one for them to look at. Only the original buyer can RMA for an exchange through Google but if you have the original receipt from the seller you should be able to get Google to accept it.

Hey everyone!

I was looking at a few storage apps like Drive, Box, Dropbox, and Ubuntu One and was trying to think of how to better make use them. Anyone any neat ways they are using the cloud that they would to share? Best I've come up with is using it to access files that I use often that may get erased from my device with flashing new roms.

Looking forward to using it in more creative ways so thanks for any input you guys have to offer!
[Android Apps and Games] LifelessRaptor:
I like to store apps that you can't download from the play store or those complimentary paid versions like BetterBatteryStats and SetCPU. That way I can easily download them or share them with a friend. I store my wallpapers so I can share them between all devices (I change it a lot.) My most useful one is for BitTorrent. If you're out and about and someone says "Hey, have you seen this movie?" I always forget to download it when I get home but if you set up a folder on one of your cloud services that syncs to your PC you can set your BitTorrent client to pull new torrents from that folder. Basically, you download the torrent file and then upload it to the cloud. If you keep your computer on then it'll be ready to watch when you get home.

I use foldersync to backup my photos and documents (among other things) to my cloud services like Sugarsync, gdrive and Dropbox. All my app backups from titanium go to Dropbox .

Cloud storage is extremely useful.
[Android Apps and Games] Jester23:
I guess I hoped there would be some more efficient and effective way to use the space... Something other than just saving stuff there... So far I have come up with scanning receipts and saving them to my Google drive account for later use if needed. It would be nice if other apps could access the information easily as well. Basically making it an extension of the tablet or phone's storage.
[Android Apps and Games] EP2008:
Depends what you want. I use evernote for receipts because of its amazing search and tagging options. Documents I share with work are in Sugarsync. Goggle drive is awesome for larger documents.

Unfortunately, I haven't found one service that does it all, so I split between different services depending on what needs to be done.
