[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simmo3D:
Just wondering if there is a way to force 850MHz on the Nexus 4?

I know on my SGS3 there was a *#*# command and u could actually select what frequency u wanted, not just WCDMA preferred etc. Wondering if there is a similar option on the Nex?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
Technically there is but it's broken at the moment it seems.

When you go into *#*#4636#*#* then Phone Information then press Menu (3 dots) then select radio band. That's where i'd assume it should be but it's broken as of now.

Hello guys,

Dunno if you are experiencing this, but i am having some problems with my nexus. After clean installing a rom, everything works perfectly smooth and fast, but after i install my usual apps and copy some music, the phone starts to be verry sluggish.

Is there any way i can get rid of that. This happens with allmost every rom and kernel combination out there. :silly:

Thanks

Allready tried that, and my rom still lags.

Curriously, on stock rom everything is ok
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwrmedia:
YMMV, I suppose, and everyone defines their interpretation of lag differently...but keeping your cache clean and minimizing the number of processes you have running @ any given time is the best approach to smooth sailing, regardless of stock or custom.

If running stock, disregard this next piece of advice, but if custom...up your minimum gov. on your kernel, and give it a go. You'll sacrifice a bit of battery life, but increase response time.

Hi

I'm sorry if this is the wrong section to post this regarding the S7500, but I couldn't find an Ace Plus section here on XDA.

My phone freeze all the time, it freezes while using Dolphin Browser, Firefox even the stock browser on the ROM. When I want to view the screenshots from apps and games in Google Play store, I can see the first one, when I slide my finger across the screen to see the next one, it freezes.

First it will freeze (the screen and all the buttons), then it vibrates once, freezes again, vibrates twice and the app crashes.

I have done a factory reset, but it didn't help. I can't use KIES because it doesn't recognize my phone. So I was planning to flash the firmware with ODIN. Could that solve my problem or would it still occur?

I haven't rooted the phone, there is no custom ROM, it's stock Android 2.3.6 from Samsung.

3) If your phone is in warranty period send it back to Samsung

So there is the problem - I used to enjoy my CM10 but I flashed the Slimbean (4.2.1) today. It's fine but I forgot to backup my contacts..

Can I restore CM10, save contacts and then restore Slimbean back?

I have made nandroid backups of both.

Won't that cause any chaos?

[HTC Desire S] DieLyn:
Hi guys

I'd like to know if there are some radios that have any advantages like better stability/battery life over the others.

My phone is currently on 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 with Hboot 2.00.002. I know for Desire XS, the Dev recommends 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.110 and 2.00.2002 or 7.00.1002 but to attain this, I must flash the ICS RUU, which I'm not keen on(I've heard it has bugs). Are there any equivalent radios to the one for Desire XS or any radio better than my current one ?

My phone is currently 2.00.002, HTCDev Unlocked, S-On. I plan on relocking, flashing an RUU with a 0.98 bootloader, using Revolutionary to unlock and S-Off and then flash another radio+Hboot if I must. Will I need to flash this with an RUU or can it be flashed in fastboot on its own ?

Sorry for asking so many questions in one post, but I've been struggling to figure out a way around this for a few weeks now.

Any direction as to get the best combination of Hboot+Radio would be appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] ContactFront:
hboot as well as radio can be flashed via fastboot without installing ruu
[HTC Desire S] zertyx:
I was looking also to change the radio on my Desire S; for now, I didn't to it yet (it was to solve problems with 2G-3G on CM10, but probably this has nothing to do with radio).

I have read on this forum that there are no rules to know which radio works better: it depends on the network you are using. Some radio's will word better for you, but not necessarily for others.

I got a iPhone 3's battery and I'm wondering what it can do.

I intend to turn it into a external battery bank but I have a few questions:

1. The battery is rated as 3.7v, can I use my pc usb to charge it directly?

2. If I want to use the battery to charge my phone, what do I need ?

1) No, you need IC to manage charging process of Li-ion/Li-po battery, for example: MAX1555.

2) You need to get stable 5V out of it. In case of single cell (probably 3.7V rated) only reasonable possibility is to use DC-DC converter in order to boost voltage.

I think that trying to make phone charger out of it is not worth the effort, however it should be relatively easy to use it with circuits that require ~3.3V, maybe a LED flashlight?
[Hardware Hacking General] showlyshah:
The above link, i managed to get 5v out of a 3.7v li-ion. The ic can provide 5v o/p from 1.5v i/p and the amp rating is 500ma, u can add low battery led,status led and charging led indicators if needed( i put those). The best advantage is if u use a protected li-ion cell as donner cell, u can connect any battery charger to the Donner cell, 4v-6v will work.( u only need a suitable connector for plugin the charger( i used a nokia connector, lol i can find it every where i go).
[Hardware Hacking General] qubas:
Nice project showlyshah.

I guess it all depends on how much effort and money ImbaWind wants to put into this. You have to choose and buy components, design circuit, probably design and etch/order PCB and finally assemble everything. It will take at least several hours and cost more that off the shelf battery bank. If you think you will have fun while designing and building it, then why not :)

I think that you are already doing the right thing and trying out different roms to see how they work for your particular needs. I'm using Temasek at the moment, however, thats not to say that it is the best rom, its just suits my needs. I also switch on a regular basis to Liquidsmooth, AOKP, CM10.1 and ParanoidAndroid just to try out the new features - thats the beauty of having an Android phone!

Just keep on trying the numerous roms to be found and find one that you like the feel of. Once you've sorted your rom, you can move on to finding which Kernel suits your needs too....

Good luck.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnsonsimon:
you shouldn't really ask which is the best ROM, but with the ROMs currently not showing in the search function on the forum at the moment I think you can be a little forgiven lol

You are best just trying the different ones out, i know it can be a bit of a pain to flash and setup each one but youll find one in the end that you like, or you will keep flashing a new one each week as a lot of people here do (GUILTY).

The one i kept on the longest is UltimaROM, the dev is very active and welcomes requests. Version 8.1.1 is very stable and nice to use.

OmegaROM is good as mentioned above.

Both of these are 4.1.2 Samsung Based ROM

Or there are a few AOSP based ROMS on 4.1.2 or 4.2.1. JellyBam being a very nice example which is based on CM10.1 and AOKP's latest builds. Or the CM 10.1 Nightly builds.

Hope that helps

I had a Huawei X5, and switched to a Huawei Ascend P1.

Both have the same screen dpi, 240 and I have not changed it. However, the P1 has a higher resolution. That is the only difference I can find for this problem.

I can see and install all my apps from google play on the X5, but on the P1 they don't appear. On the web page it says it's incompatible and if I try to install the apk directly, it also does not allow.

What compatibility check is it failing? One example is google googles, I can install it just fine in my 7'' tablet and in my X5, but not in the P1.

Is there anything I can do to bypass this check?

Do you think it could be rom related (I use official miui for the P1 and unofficial miui for the X5)?

time consuming and difficult job just to replace the cpu as it is solider on the motherboard.

It is cheaper just to replace the motherboard, as their maybe other issues with board that caused or was caused by the damaged CPU.

App 2 is a beat making app. There were several dots on the screen, nothing else. And you pressed the dots on the screen and it would make a beat. The more dots you pressed, the more the beat changed.

I had the same problem with installation of Runnymede aio 6043 (i left my device for a whole night waiting the process of installation without results..) and now it seems it's going to happen the same with this rom so i think i'm making some mistake.

Before to try to install this rom i re-installed without problems the Froyo official rom for my phone.

Hi guys,

I've bought my HTC One XL directly from Australia, through Telstra. But now I live in Brazil

Well, I bricked my phone pretty hard. I even bothered reading all the topics about my stituation to see if there was any available solution. Turns out there isn't.

Well, at least through the community. From what I gathered, HTC is able to refurbish it and send it back - or at least exchange for another one.

The problem is, since this device is not sold in Brazil, HTC-Brazil simply don't do any kind of repair on it. So, my only hope lives in a good australian soul accepting to receive my phone and do me this big favour of checking if HTC-Australia would help me - even if I have to pay some technical fee.

I know this forum is not exacly for something like this, but I'm out of ideas. And since my investment was pretty big and I can't afford another one right now, I'm here begging for some help.

If this good soul exists, please, PM me so we can go through details.

Thanks in advance!
