[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
What happens when you try searching for a network when the issue arises. There are 4 possible outcomes

- it finds all networks just fine and can connect to your home network => probably device-related issue

- it finds all networks just fine but cannot connect to your home network with an error message => potential blocking by the carrier

- it searches but does not find any networks => modem related issue

- it immediatly gives an error message => modem completely crashed or EFS corruption

There can be several network-related issues causing this problem. Does using Airplane mode or the app "Network Sginal Speed Booster" bring your network back?

First you should check the validity of your IMEI number (dial *#06# ) after boot AND when the problem happens. The number is printed beneath the battery and on the device's box so you can check it.

If that does not help, complain to your carrier about it. They probably will try swapping your SIM card (if not, ask explicitely but refuse to pay any thing they try to charge. Sometimes the SIM card has problems and will cause partial or complete loss of signal.

If it still does not work, report here.

Forgive me for this, but that really sounds like a child wanting a new toy because the battery in the last one ran out. As long as you don't know what causes the issue, buying new stuff has nothing to do with fixing the problem, only with searching a reason for buying another phone.

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] linuxholgi:
Well after my Galaxy Nexus has died, found it with a black screen one morning on the charger, I had to reactivate my good old Milestone.

The problem was, I had no battery. The last battery was thrown away and now I had to get replacement.

I found the Milestone/XT702 battery from Sun Global, which gives 1 year warranty for 1850mAh high capacity batteries. Hard enough to find a battery in town for an older phone, so I was a happy camper.

The phone works fine, but when I plug it into charger (tried different chargers and cables), it won't charge. USB plug is working, computer detects it and I can exchange files.

The status of the battery when I check it in the phone under settings is "unknown". I guess that's the reason. Shouldn't it be "discharging"? Any ideas what I can do? Charge is 80% - since one hour no change, without being on a charger.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Erovia:
What rom are you using?

Btw, there are many issues with 3rd party batteries.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Eiertschik:
If you're using 1% battery steps disable it.

It's not compatible with some aftermarket batteries.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] linuxholgi:
Yes, disabling the 1% steps worked! Battery is charged and works. I bought a $6 battery from china before without any issues with that. This battery is $17 and supposed to be of high quality...

Well now a new problem occured, that touchscreen is acting weird sometimes. I put the phone away for ~4-5 months and it had no issues like that. Is the battery charged more than %60, only a small strip on the right side of the touch is not working. Falls it below %60, the whole touch acts weird.

I am living in a very humid country (Malaysia) and read about moisture can be an issue. So tonight I will put the phone in a bag of rice and hope the condition improves. Otherwise I have to get a new digitizer, saw them for less then $10 with free shipping at eBay.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Erovia:
Check out THIS thread before spending money.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] linuxholgi:
Thanks, I tried something similar. Put my phone into a zipper bag with rice and heated that up in the oven. After the oven reached 70+ C I switched it off and kept it there for about 45 minutes.

About 4mm of the right side of the screen is still not working, but the rest of the screen seems ok. Hope it remains like that - at least I can use the phone.

I also ordered for $8.99 a replacement touch screen. But it will take quite some time to get it devilered from china...

Hope its the correct one

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haxor:
Twitter users on Android have been waiting for this day for a long time now but it’s finally here. After being teased for almost a year, the developers of Carbon have finally released the Twitter client on the Play Store.

The app was shown off on Twitter last year and then an early alpha was released for a few users. After that the app was delayed indefinitely because the developers could not release it as a paid app on Play Store as it wasn’t supported in their region. After that it was announced that the app would be released as a free app but even that got postponed indefinitely.

So now, several months after all that happened and people almost forgot about the app, the developers released it on the Play Store. It’s free, just as they promised, and does not contain any kind of advertisements or revenue model within the app.

Some of the features in this v1.1.3 include:

Tilt Timeline to Refresh

Power Scroll: Scroll/Swipe up or down using Two fingers to jump to top or bottom of Timelines

Tap+Hold on Tweets to make everything clickable right on the Timeline

QuickTimeline, home screen quick Timeline for Lists, Searches, Trends, etc…

Rich Timelines with full inline images and videos

Rich and HD style for User Profiles

Rich and fun Conversation View

Threaded Direct Messages

Background updates with quick actions for Jelly Bean, per account

Username Autocomplete

Filters for Hashtags, Users, and Keywords

To download Carbon for Twitter, click on the link below.

I have JB XXLPZ and changed provider today.

From the documentation from the provider I need to set things via the simtoolkit. I don't see the icon and can't find it anywhere?

Also I have the phone rooted and am running the TZ 3.5 kernel.

Any hints or tips?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dungeonshard:
Are u sure u dont see simtoolkit in my launcher. U can check app manager see simtoolkit. I think u need turn on and turn off airplane mode:D

Install SD Maid app, press left soft button and go to settings of that app. Check "Include system packeges?". Go back, then go to tab APPCONTROL. Refrash it, then search for stk. Press on it, and tap on Start application.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midnight Shadow:
Check 10 times :) and I'm not in airplane mode as I can call en be called. Only data requires some settings for this provider and must be setup via the simtoolkit as per their instuctions.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midnight Shadow:
I installed it, but it doesn't show up in the list.

Also original rooted kernel didn't make a change.

When I use ES file-explorer and go to the /system/app folder I see a stk.apk and stk.odex

I was now able to install the stk, but it doesn't show up in the app drawer. Installed size is 0KB.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
Hmmm. Try to delete both. And wait me to upload deodexed file.

Edit: Try to delete both apk and odex file. And to push this file from attachemt to system/app. (not to install)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midnight Shadow:
With sd-maid I'm now able to see the app, but when trying to start it gives a "Not possible!" message...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
Reboot. You pushed this file? And did remove previous apk and odex file of it?

P.S. If you really need that app to open do this:

1. Make backup in CWM.

2. Flash stock FW with Odin. And do factory reset. Or try with factory reset first, without flashing JB with Odin again, if that do not help, then flash FW.

3. Use app for your needs

4. Root phone again

5. Install TZ 3.5

6. Restore your backup.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midnight Shadow:
I removed the previous two files and copied the one you supplied in it's place.

Ran sd-mail and was able to find the stk app. Unable to run it though.

Then reboot.

After the reboot the sd-maid app was unable to find the stk application like the original ones.

I need to do the following:

Choose Roaming services.

Choose Selecteer Mode.

Choose Manueel.

Choose International.

Simcard gets updated.

If you know any app that can do the following then I'm all ears ;)

Thanks and I'll update tomorrow!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midnight Shadow:
Solved!

The provider said that my simcard didn't need to be changed because it was of the newer type. So the sim toolkit was not being able to run because it detected the newer type.

Then I explained that I still had no internet. She talked me throug all the settings and they were fiine. On their website there are numerous samples per phone on how to setup this manually.

Is seems that the settings defer for some phones. They told me I had to type "internet" in the access type section while it had to be "default" what I found out by checking the phone of my wife. She has the same provider.

After changing I had my dataconnection.

Thanks for thinking with me!

[HTC EVO 3D] xicomandamento:
Good morning,

first of all i present myself. My name is Gianni and write from Italy, so excuse me for my bad english.

I've a HTC EVO3D unrooted, bought in may 2012 updated to Ics 4.0.3, HTC SENSE 3.6, software number 3.28.401.1, kernel version 3.0.16-ge733189, browser version WebKit/534.30.

Sometimes i have some troubles:

1 - sometimes touch doesn't work, i can't touch any app on the screen, or any button (home, menu, find or backbottom), it's like freezed

2 - sometimes when i scroll screen to find gadgets it freezes and the display is uncontrollable

3 - sometimes during a calling i can't close, i must remove the battery

4 - sometimes using qwerty keyboard it doesn't work good (with and without swiftkey3).

I thought that, installing a lot of third part apps, i use something uncompatible:

- es file manager

- office suite pro

- photo resizer

- tomtom

- sygic

- realcalculator plus

- skype

- aptoide

- app backup and restore

- sms backup and restore

- swiftkey 3

- something else.

So, i resetted to farm settings 5/6 times.

Now i'm testing it installing 1 app a time, anyway i don't install Es file manager (maybe it causes problems).

It freezes again, but not like before.

I write to ask you if there are any troubleshooting known, and if there are solutions, or apps uncompatible.

I hope to receive an answer ASAP,

all the best

Gianni
[HTC EVO 3D] Shponglized:
Uhhhh. Your digitizer might be going bad, Go to developer options and check "show touches" you'll be able to see what's going on.

And all of those apps are fine and are not causing your problem.

R: [Q] troubleshooting in Evo3d unrooted - ICS

Ok, i'll try. About touch is ok, but about freeze?
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Yours is still Locked and unrooted, so maybe running a RUU specific to your device might solve the problem. But before that try using your phone for few hours with the simcard removed and see if it still freezes. I cant say if thats what is causing it but one of the carriers tower near my house had some issues and it made all the phones using there service freeze and unresponsive to touch every now and then. When they use other sim card the phones were working fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] xicomandamento:
R: [Q] troubleshooting in Evo3d unrooted - ICS

I don't think that is caused by simcard. I try. Anyway it freeze Aldo during a calling so i can't close.

The apps i've now:

App backup and restore, colornote, convertpad, Skype, file manager, dea developer.

This morning it freezed two times during two calls.

Any advice?
[HTC EVO 3D] Shponglized:
It freezing is just your screen being unresponsive No app out there (for the most part) are gonna break your phone, At the worst they'll drain battery. So listing your apps isn't helping, Though it is nice to be thurough.

I also suggest find a RUU for you specific phone and hboot and resetting all of your software, if that doesn't help you'll have to buy a new screen or take it into a repair store;

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sebz4n:
Greetings!

So I received my phone from my carrier last monday after it's second time at the repair shop (first time I had lockscreen problems, headprint was changed. When I got it back the r-tards had forgotten to remove the piece of paper that is over the front camera under the glass, they scratched my phone and shizzle so I sent it in again) - and I am trying to figure out if they put it together in a weird way (once again)...

Near the corner of the speakers (I think it's the frame) I get a squeaking noise whenever I unlock my phone (I use bricked kernel sweep2wake so I put a bit of pressure on that corner). Even though it's not all the time, and it's not a very loud noise, it makes the phone feel cheap (as if it is coming apart) so if nobody else is having this issue I'll turn it in again ...

I really love my Nexus, but oh god I've had so many problems with it
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qazibasit:

I really think it's a nice phone, it's my carrier that assembled it in a bay way when I RMA'd it

I made a little video to show off the noise, is this just my carrier that put it together poorly (again) or is this an issue?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingu:
Thanks, based on this thread I've managed to get rid of it

Shortly:

changing settings.db entries:

throttle_threshold_bytes --> added 000 in the end of the value - now have 3GB

throttle_polling_sec --> changed to 0 to get rid of notification

It worked, but I downloaded the file on my PC and used this program to edit:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/?source=dlp

Then uploaded it back

After that i got myself bootloop (continous, blinking, booting screen) - fixing permission in recovery solved that

So here's the case- I used the zero camera mod, and don't have a recovery backup before that point, although I have made a backup copy of the two files, which the mod replaces. Now I want to restore the original camera app, but I can't.

Here is what I have tried:

Manual replacement with root explorer, after setting the right permissions, and the app just disappeared from drawer. After that, tried wiping cache and dalvik-didn't help.

So next thing-replaced my original files with those from the zerocam zip and flashed them, again with wiping caches and fixing permissions, and again no luck....

Any ideas why the s##t isn't working, like it's supposed to, and how to get back the original camera app? I've done such things thousands of times on other phones, without any problems, and can't figure out what's the problem here....

Boot into recovery and replace the files through adb. You cant replace system apps while the system is running, in most cases.

Hello guys,

I tried to restore my Neobox E-Fox2012 with MTK 6573 and android 2.3.4 but now it's blocked on start screen! :crying:

How i can flash a stock rom (or any other rom) to restore my phone?

There's a tutorial?

Thanks a lot for help!

PS: sorry for my bad english! :angel:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amyren:
I do not have Neobox myself, but I got curious about what phone that was and did search around for some info about it.

I found several hits with frustrated users like yourself have bricked their phone and was looking for help. The manufactor have no website or support for the phone, so it looks like its much up to the users themselves to help eachothers.

But I think I did find one page that I hope will help you to fix your phone. Someone hava had similar problems and have mad a blog about it to help other neobox mt6573 users.

He have also posted a link so you can download a copy of his own dumped rom, so that others can fix their phones by flashing it.

Here is the link to the blog:

<link removed due to forum rules, users below 10 posts.....>

Also check the blogpost with technical info and pictures of the phone so that you can verify that this is the same phone.

Here is a link to a guide for flashing rom (should be the same procedure as for mt6573 phones):

<link removed due to forum rules, users below 10 posts.....>

You will need some MediaTek USB VCOM drivers, but these I think you can find many places for download. (google it)

ps. I tried to download his rom dump to check the files. This is not a complete rom, because the preloader is not flashable. But I think this is normal for these kind of backups. I did do backup on my MT6575 phone and the preloaded was missing there too.

But dont worry, it should be enaugh to restore your phone.

Also you will need to use the MTK ROM Studio to create a scatter txt file and put in the same dir as the rom.

If you dont have that tool, I did create a scatter file for you:

Note that I was not allowed to post direct links in my post, since I dont have 10 posts yet on this forum. So I have included the links in the attachment file.

Hope this helps you :)

Thanks a lot for you help!

I had already found this blog and using the dump with SP Flash Tool i "reborn" the phone.

This isn't my phone, but the phone of my friend that doesn't understand nothing around flashing, rom etc etc.

So if someone will use this method i can say that it works!

See you soon guys.
