[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qanda:
I have a Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch. My contact list is synced to the phone in Last Name, First Name order from the computer , but when I pair the device to my vehicle, it appears First name, Last name.

The vehicle does not have a bluetooth option to sort the list in reverse order.

The device stores the list in a file called 'vnd.sec.contact.phone'

My question is this......When the device sends the file over to the vehicle (or any other device to which it is paired), is it always in the order sorted, or is it defaulted to First name, Last name????
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ctomgee:
While your question is general enough that any answer given here might apply to you, you have posted this question in the wrong forum.

This post is currently in the forum for the GT-I9100, a GSM phone that does not even work on Sprint's CDMA network.

The Epic 4G Touch variant of the Galaxy SII has its own forum at http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281

And sorry, I do not know the answer to your question. But I'd venture a guess that it is an issue with your vehicle's software not having the option to sort your contact list as you want to. Not really an issue with Android, or the Epic 4G Touch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qanda:
Need to move thread

Ok, sorry. Sprint calls the device Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch so I put it in that forum.

Can you please switch it over to the correct forum?

Thank you.

PS: BMW says it is not the software, Sprint says it doesn't know, and Samsung......well they blame it on Google OS. Try getting in touch with a live person at Google who will help you.

That's why I come here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ctomgee:
No.... you didn't. You put it in the Galaxy S II I9100 forum. This is NOT the Epic 4G Touch forum. I provided a link to the Epic 4G Touch forum above in post 2. You can report it to moderators to move the thread by clicking the /!\ symbol next to your first post.

Sorry, I cannot move threads, I am not a moderator.

Let's make sure we're talking about the same thing. From what I understand you saying, you're saying you have your contact list sorted in your phone by last name, right? But when you sync your phone to your car, the car's software will not sort by last name when viewing your contact list on your car's screen? Is that right? And there is no option in your car's screen to sort your contacts by last name? Or is it that the names are sorted in last name order, but display them as firstname lastname?

Does choosing this setting under the advanced option in wifi settings really drain more battery ... especially when youre in doors and only get a 3g signal? Does anyone have this setting on?

I think it helps. All it does is leave wifi on with the screen off. It's sure better then a weak 3g signal

Hello,

I have searched for a couple of hours now. I have found other phones being able to run the samsung gallery app on their non samsung phone. The note 2 gallery app allows you to view in timeline, spiral and gridview. This is what i want. I have downloaded the ones for other phones but it's now working on mines.

I'm on AOKP swagger and have installed the update for 4.2 camera and gallery as well...

Anyone ported that feature for the sensation yet?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] tmobiletilt:

Nobody???
[HTC Sensation] czechiaa:

[AT&T LG Optimus G] blamster:
Hello, I was just wanting to get a few things verified before I flashed my first rom. I have been following these instructions:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2006946

Where it says to root, then unlock the bootloader. First 2 are checked. so no problem there

3rd step it talks about using CWM but when i was running the app that the instructions suggested, the app suggested to install TWRP so that's what I did. So then i rebooted into twrp and said "backup" and checked everything so that it backs up all my data. Is that what is considered a nandroid backup? and so from there I'm safe.

Also I had titanium and said to backup up everything and anything from there as well. So both of those will be uploaded to my box account along with remaining in my PC.

Also for good measure, I plugged in my phone, opened explorer and just copied everything within the internal storage and sd card so that I have those too. Not sure if they will be useable at all but figured why not.

So would I have put myself in a good position such that if I mess up later on, I can revert back to the way I am right now?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] insanecrane:
TWRP just doesn't call it a nandroid back up like CWM when it's finished backing up so as long as TWRP finished successfully you're fine. The only current ROM I knlw of right now that doesn't flash with TWRP is the Korean JB port and that is stated in bold red letters in the OP so you can flash away in my opinion. Looks like you have it all covered.

As a side note I have had three different LG devices and honestly find them near impossible to permanently brick. LGNPST became one of my best friends a long time ago and his brother QPST as well, lol.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] blamster:
Ahh okay thanks. I didn't realize that nandroid was just CWM terminology. Good to know I was doing everything right. And I wasn't looking for Korean JB.

Oh good to know. I will have to mess with LGNPST just to make sure I can do everything properly incase I ever need to actually do it. Good to hear it's pretty reliable and thanks again.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] TangoXray:
Good to see your trying to cover all your bases. Don't over complicate things for yourself, though. As long as your simply flashing roms built for your device and following directions you'll be ok. You're bound to run into a few hiccups if you get the bug, like most of us have, and start flashing everything you can. But no worries, there's always a way to fix.

Also, since your brand new to this stuff, read up on the threads and give them a few days before flashing Anything. Let some of the more experienced guys test them out and leave feedback.

Have fun!

Edit: one last thing, TiBu is more hassle free if you only use it for app + data, as opposed to, system data.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
Also, if you are using the recovery installed by FreeGee, I'd update to a more current one found in the development thread. The first couple were a little glitchy.

Edit: great advice from Tango above. They usually recommend to never restore system data. It will render your phone's ROM FUBAR more often than not.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] blamster:
Okay thanks. Honestly, I'm not too concerned about my apps and data. I was really just doing everything so that I can get a working phone again quickly if I end up breaking something. I don't expect to be changing too often, I'm waiting for slick rom v4 to come out, then a few days after I'll be flashing my phone. I was just wanting to get everything ready now incase I run into anything unexpected I dont' rush it due to wanting to try the rom.

Uh...I used FreeGee from the app store, so whatever that one installs. Good to know it is out of date. I'll go check out the new version and try to get that one installed.

---edited in

Bleh I need to wait 5 minutes between posts and edits.

Well it looks like my TWRP is v2.3.2.3 which seems to be the neweest version (although really old 11/28/12)

Also I suppose I should run TiBu with app+data only if using system data causes such big problems. Thanks for the warning guys.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] insanecrane:
Just remember one of the most important things to do is read, read and read again when you first start out. There's also plenty of help here as long as you are respectful and ask in a detailed intelligent manner.

This is one of the best communities on XDA imo. Great people and devs.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Nastybutler:
It seems most of the usual jerks you'd find don't have the patience to wait for the JB source to come along, so don't use this phone. Lets hope that they don't start flocking here now that we've got it. :laugh:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] insanecrane:

[AT&T LG Optimus G] blamster:
Reading. Yes. I enjoy learning and understanding (what I actually can) about what is going on. I got this phone the week it came out and have been waiting and watching while the community develops. It feels okay now to be jumping on board. I had to learn quite a bit coming from iOS. I jailbroke it and used mods but I'm just a user not a developer. So really wanted to learn all the safety precautions for android.

I was worried about posting my question and people just flaming me. But I definitely appreciate the help that has been offered. Makes me feel a lot more comfortable getting this done, that if something does go wrong I have somewhere I can turn to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jfinfin:
I was using the Codename Android 3.4.1 ROM on my VZW Galaxy Nexus and wanted to update the ROM (now on version 3.8.0). I downloaded the zip files needed, did a Nandroid back up, wiped data, cache, and Delvik cache. Installed the new ROM, and everything was fine. I have Titanium Backup pro. I was restoring everything and there seemed to be no problems. After my text messages restored, I had an issue with any messaging apps. I use Handcent. I could sometimes view conversations, but the app would have problems if I tried to send anything. I was trying to reply to someone who had texted me while my phone was restoring. I waited until the restore was complete before getting back to them. Handcent freezes when I select a conversation or just start it up. When I try the stock messaging app, it say "Loading Conversations" but never moves past that. I tried restoring my Nandroid backup to before I flashed the new ROM, but I isn't restoring to the exact state from the time of the back up. It appears as though the damage is done. Any idea what could be happening here or how I could fix it?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diogofd8:
Hi!

In my Galaxy Nexus, a line of pixels on the top of the screen isn't normal.

http://i.imgur.com/sd9WGXJ.png

Just see by yourselves... The line at the top of the sreen (left side when landscape mode) isn't coloured normally. Is it a screen issue or software issue? I am using coloured softkeys that I modded with metamorph but I've never noticed this problem for 3 months of softkeys modification, just now...

If it is a hardware problem I'll send it do warranty, but I need to be sure that is worth of it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheRandom1:
Seems like a hardware problem. The app you asked about doesn't seem like it'll fix it, but worth giving it a shot.

no it doesn't fix... what kind of "pixel disease" it is?

warranty covers that?

That BB lockscreen is very cool... I think to make it work on stock you just need to delete the UxpNXTlockscreen.apk and then mod the system files accordingly to the original thread... if everything goes well you'll get the lockscreen.. if not, you'll probably get a bootloop or some tons of FC's when booting...

But it's worth a try ;)

[Motorola Photon 4G] morebs4me:
As far as how did i unlock it, I didn't. The bootloader was unlocked, I did not know i couldnt change recovery without it being unlocked just because the prototype allowed me through fastboot. I didn't know until i had a production model that it wouldn't allow anything but bootstrap recovery. The prototype came with an unlocked bootloader, and needed very little work to do gsm in the us.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hoslayer13:
Well that's interesting. Zeroes across the board or just zero? Also run

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/bootloader.img

The LG United Drivers are installed onto my computer great.

But then an AutoPlay window pops up prompting me to run LGAutoRun.exe. I click to do so.

You must be on 64 bit windows. Not even on 64bit, Still try this...

1) Uninstall LG Drivers, LG PC Suite and anything you see named LG. Restart PC.

2) Install latest LG Driver from this post (step 4)

3) Install Optional MTP Driver from this post (step 4)

4) Open Windows Device Manager (just to watch whats happening.)

5) Disconnect Internet (To avoid stupid online WDM drivers)

6) Connect phone with Usb and let drivers install automatically. Give it some time to install drivers keeping watch on Device Manager window. :D

7) Keep changing USB connect modes to all modes one-by-one on Phone and let drivers install.

You should see MTP drivers installed now. If this does not help, cant think of anything else. If this works, press THANKS button :D
