[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
He won't get any if those devices for a £300 budget, and the N4 is better than all of them (aside from s4 which is unknown but £500+ simfree)

The money you spend on a N4 means you only need to pay £10/month for a phone tariff because you have your own phone. It's the smartest way to do it. No lock in you can sell your phone and buy a something else whenever you wish, of market prices are right.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mubz_C:
The reason I posted in this thread was that I wanted this phone but before buying I wanted to see what real nexus 4 owners say about it. Also I need to convince my mum to buy it for me (this will be the last phone I get for a birthday present) and she was complaining about it (is it reliable, is play store safe, etc.). I know that MWC is coming up in a couple of weeks but my deadline is March (My mum is adament, not before March). She wants the answer to this question: Is buying from the play store safe, and will it arrive?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrian-O:
Lol is the play store safe?! Have no faith in Google?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
It's absolutely safe. It gets delivered by TNT, signed for. And the Google price is over £120 lower than Carphone Warehouse.

You won't find much an MWC with the Nexus4 specs, and the Nexus4 pricetag. (aside perhaps the Huawei Ascend P2).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Remcotjuuh:
Shoud be. I didn't order one through Play but it's directly via Google and they should handle it nicely. It may take some time to arrive, though.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
I bought an Xperia SL recently, solely for the purpose of watching videos. Most of the videos I download have the mkv extension and are 720 - 1080p. I downloadedcl MX Player along with its codec and started the video. The video only works on software decoding and desyncs + lags like hell. I dont want to convert it, as I want to download and watch straight away.

Could you help me out? (except saying that download in some other format)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
The stock player just shows a black screen. As does mx player on hardware decoding.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] auni:
Try MX Player Free or Pro version. Make sure you use the latest one. It played every file i tried.

While playing change the decoding to HW/SW depending on your need. HW is set by default.

Search for MX player in Google Play.

@entermetallica:

Same answer as allways.

MKV is no videoformat, it's a container that can consist of audio and video in different formats.

Download the video on a PC, use VLC to view it and then goto Extra/Codec Info.

Post what's there, esp. Mangas are known to use way out of spec coding parameters.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dr Goodvibes:
I use the lastest version of both BSPlayer and MX Player Pro(16bit).

Both play .mkv 720p 6-channel audio movies using HW acceleration on my XPERIA LT26i. I haven't tried 1080p .mkv

BSPlayer uses it's own HW engine and defaults to HW encoding.

MX Player Pro needs to have the HW options enabled in the application settings first.

My XPERIA X10i Adreno 200 running GB 2.3.3(sony fw) uses HW encoding in 720p .mkv movies.. so I'm very sure it's got to work on an XPERIA LT26i Adreno 220 ICS 4.0.4(sony fw)

What firmware are you running???

If you've installed some sort of JB fw ... then true, you may lose HW encoding if the Adreno 220 drivers are not HW enabled in a given firmware not supplied by Sony/Qualcomm.

I use Handbrake on Win7 to encode/decode videos which have default Android and/or HD video settings.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] r0bot:
Yup, you've hit the nail on the head. Most likely a codec that's not supported, MKV container is supported by the stock video players and most players form the Google Play market. If we could have a list of codecs that are supported by our Xperia S/SL that would maybe help clearify things.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dr Goodvibes:
Using H264 video codec and ACC or AC3 audio in my .mkv container and that's fine with XPERIA S and gives HW acceleration.
[LG Optimus Black] Norcal232001:
hi all. I am having a very annoying problem. Whenever I try to make a call my phone is unresponsive and I can't hear anything. The person on the other end of the call can hear me. I have tried different roms, CM 10, Cm 7.2, I have gone back to stock and now am trying huexx Zeus v 7.06. all these roms and still the same problem. The speaker works I hear it when dialling. I am just clueless as to why this is happening. Please help, Is this a HW problem. I did recently change my digitizer but that is working great.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mywish69:
I have just purchased a BT Headset, and was trying to make out-going call direct from my BT Headset. I couldn't get it work. I noticed that it was due to the "screen lock". I tried unlock the screen from my Note 10.1 and it worked. This is very annoying. I noticed that there is a BT Headset settings for outgoing calls -> Outgoing call conditions -> Even when device locked, has been selected. But it still doesn't allow me to make outgoing call from my BT Headset without unlocking my screen. I tried reboot my Note 10.1, but problem still persists.

Has any guys encounter the same problem as mine? As at this moment, I have to disable the unlock screen feature foregoing the security. :(

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calinoii:
Hey,Im running stock XXELLA firmware with stock kernel,rooted only.What I heared about TouchWiz is that it's causing Contacts,DialPad,Messaging,CallLog to open with a 2-3 maybe 4 seconds delay and also when someone calls me,the ringtone starts playing but the screen wakes up with a 1-2 seconds delay. My question is: Is this mess related to TouchWiz? Is there any fix?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Not related to TouchWiz (the launcher).

When looking at the status bar, swipe bar and no on-screen buttons (which were implemented firs on ICS) I'm afraid this is even Android 2.3 Gingerbread so this theme is impossible to get xD

And also I think it's strange combination, ummm... lockscreen-like launcher?:

Widget with "Ewa flight"

"Lockscreen" swipe bars

Clock widget

And these 5 dots which are present when we are using the launcher...

And the phone seems to be pretty small... or James Bond have BIG fingers.

i own an htc one x (international version ) (Tegra 3 ) ..and after reading some interesting articles about installing custom roms on the one x , i rooted it and put some rom , it was working perfectly , but i was not satisfied with the rom , so i downloaded a new rom and put it on the phone and installed the rom (some nexus rom) ... i booted the phone and it was stuck on the nexus logo and nothing else would happen , so i read some articles on the internet , one of them told me to reset the phone to factory setting , after doing that i've lost CWM Recovery , now all i can do is, get to Hboot or something like that , aND all i can see here is fastboot and recovery , I've tried everything , but it just wont work , i'm a noob , please help me fix my phone up ! , i gave it to the htc repair centre they told me that they had to change the motherboard and that would cost as much as half the price of the phone , so i told dont want .... now is there anyway i can fix it by myself or fix it somewhere else for cheaper ??? please suggest a way i can do it on my own
[HTC One X] nishu_nisarg:
When your phone does not boot anymore, but you still have access to HBOOT, you put the phone in HBOOT and connect it to your Desktop/Laptop and run the RUU so it fresh installs your phone. Let's say the USB connection does not work (Had this issue in the past with my HTC DesireHD)... What now?? Just like the old days, flash rom through SD-Card.

You need

USB Y-Cable

Cardreader

SD-Card

HTC One X (Fastboot disabled and powered off)

Latest ROM RUU.

*This only works with current stock ROM or newer version. Downgrading will fail till we have SuperCID. More about that in here!

1. Run the RUU and get the rom.zip from it. (Find it in here "c:\users\%usrename%\appdata\temp\"￼

2. Copy rom.zip to the SD-Card and rename it to PJ46IMG.zip

3. Put the SD-Card in the card reader.

4. Put the card reader onto the USB Y-Cable.

5. Plugin the USB Y-Cable to your One X.

6. Hold volume down and press the power button while keeping the volume down pressed. This will get you into HBOOT.

7. Wait a couple of seconds and you'll see that it finds PJ46IMG.zip

8. Follow the instructions on your screen =)

I've tried it with a USB OTG Cable and it worked. Some card readers do ask for more power, than you need a USB Y-Cable.

Questions etc. please here and not in PM!

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
First of all do NOT post in 2 sections the same QUESTION !!! THIS IS THE GENERAL

And its all wrong info.....you dont need a card reader or anything. Just a laptop and a original charger cable.

Hook the phone on the pc and put it in the fastboot usb mode (bootloader)

Open a commandprompt inside the fastboot folder on the pc and type

Fastboot getvar version-main

With that number we can get a ruu

ok ! but after getting the ruu how do i push the files onto my phone ???
[HTC One X] Shan89:
Or simply download any rom of your choice that you'd like to use , i'd suggest SENSE based rom till you get used onto flashing.

After that flash recovery of your choice , i'm suggesting you CWM 5.8.4.0 ( fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ) and then fastboot erase cache , then take the BOOT.IMG from the SENSE rom you would like to flash ( it's usually placed in the zip of the rom ) then copy the boot.img into your fastboot folder and type *fastboot erase cache* > *fastboot flash boot boot.img * > *fastboot erase cache*

After that get into recovery from Hboot , after you get into recovery hit *mount and storage > mount USB storage * then you'll see your storage on the PC ( don't forget to plug the phone onto pc lol ) then copy the rom you want to flash onto sdcard (make sure you use the rom from what you used boot.img previously ) , after that UNMOUNT the storage from recovery , then do these steps

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

get into >mount and storage

format system

format data

Format cache

hit back and go to *advanced*

Wipe dalvic cache

head back and hit *install zip from sd card* > chose zip from sd card > go to the folder where you put the ROM and click on it

After that you'll get AROMA installer and FOLLOW the instructions onscreen. after the flashing is done REBOOT === Enjoy the rom.

IF later on you would want to flash another rom(s) just follow the same instructions just skip flashing recovery again. Hope it helps =)

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

Forget the ruu just do what i wrote above.

If you manage to fail again write here the steps you did and what you did so we can help you.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
he don't need these steps :D he just need again a custom recovery to flash in fastboot and the rom he want and then the boot.img for the rom...why the hell you tell him to do these steps? it has nothing to do with his problem O.o ...
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
And you are to fast. Who said he has a JB hboot onboard, hes in 2 threads at the same time and he knows crap about flashing,fastboot and installing a rom :banghead: and hes in the wrong section here .....
[HTC One X] Shan89:
Why not , those steps are the steps for flashing custom Roms... And according to him his problem is that he flashed *nexus* rom , which is most likely *aosp/aokp* rom and my instructions are for him to flash back onto sense rom till he get used onto flashing and learn few things along the way before he hits on aosp/aokp roms.

Lol you're right, i just assumed he has JB hboot cuz by now everyone should have it, anyway he can do these steps even with ICS roms.

Too bad ppl don't read enough before starting to flash things on their phone like this guy here.

Before i started flashing things on HoX first i've read ALOT of things about flashing and possible issues for around a week. And trust me i've READ alot of pages in the meantime lol. Anyway maybe the Ruu solution would be the best for him if he wants to be on stock again but sooner or later he'll come back with *bootloop issue* or something similar when he starts using custom roms again, that why i wrote him these steps.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yes but the problem is not everyone has a y-cable or something else and that takes much longer then other steps...he wrote he can get it booting...i think he just forget to flash boot.img which is the fault of MANY people out there because they don't read enough ...aosp/aokp/cm10 are like sense roms...just putting on sdcard flash boot.img in fastboot and erase also there the cache then flash the rom in custom recovery and that it is...nothing more or less...:D
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
That was not posted by shan, it was that other guy. Just get the main version from the OP and and get him a ruu ! If you are flashing nexus roms on a HTC one x you don't expect too much knowledge on this from the OP.

But i reported this thread due to double posting and confusing guidance. Hope you guys agree on that with me

Hey guys,

Likely this issue is not related to my current ROM (Meanbean 3.0).

Anyway, my camera just started not working at all. The camera app will boot, but all I get is a black screen. I can see all of the on screen

buttons for the camera app, but they are non-response. If I press some of the buttons it tells me that the camera is not responding

and I can wait or quit. Sometimes the app will force close and tells me that it cannot restart.

It seemed to occur right after installing the new 3.16 firmware update. At that time I was on Meanbean 2.9. I've since updated

to 3.0 with a clean install, but there is no change. The app will boot and I can see all of the on screen buttons for the camera, but

it just shows a black screen where normally you would see what the camera is viewing.

The firmware from the captain installed correctly through the bootloader. Radios & PRI are correctly indicated and seem to be

working fine. I suspect this is a hardware issue and not related to the ROM. I have TEP on the phone, so I can take it to

Sprint and have them check it out, but before I do, is there anything I should try? Reboot and wiping doesn't help.
