[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yooyo3d:
I have enabled System bar lock (Settings/ASUS customized setting/System bar lock). After locking system bar everything works as expected. But If I try to unlock system bar, by sliding a lock icon in system bar, it asks me for a password (never set any password before !?) and after I type anything as a password, system bar crashes and I cant use device.. Back/Home/Apps button is gone, clock and other infomations is also disappear. All I can do is to reset device, because there is no way to exit running app.

I noticed this problem after latest 4.2.1 update. Please, tf300t - WW users, can you check this on your devices? Any idea how to solve this? I really ned this feature, because when my kids play games its very usefull.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thaynes3346:
Having the exact same problem, for time being I just disabled the the system bar lock function, even though I need this for my kids when playing it so they do not keep getting into the settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yooyo3d:
I have keyboard dock and still can use device. Just go to Settings and disable System Bar lock and System bar appear again. At least I dont have to reboot device.

Please, can anyone check this problem and report here?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkrevo:
I also have this problem, but on a TF300T with US sku.

Latest update of course.

I tried using/changing the lock pin and password, and the asus app locker password... no luck whatsoever.

Seems it's fixed by last update.
[General Questions and Answers] TJ_Hooka:
Sorry if this has been discussed to death, but it's a valid issue that applies to almost all ICS devices I've come into contact with, my xperia play running gingerbread wasn't all that spectacular either until I hacked and tweaked the crap outta it, but is now my "Ideal baseline".

After playing Predators on my Gadmei T883 the other day I came to realize that the touchscreen lag is coming from somewhere in the ui or os that predators bypasses. It was so amazingly responsive that I've come to wonder exactly what it was that is causing the lag and why/how predators accesses it with an additional issue being that if I update to the newest available firmware for it predators causes a reboot after loading its assets (but on the other hand Netflix now works on the tablet unlike with the HK DIY 1.1 firmware which steals your google play account info possibly...).

But my point being, the touchscreen was extremely responsive, almost as smooth as my xperia play is with EVERYTHING... now I've tried all sorts of tweaks and mods to eek out as much performance as possible but as of yet haven't been able to get any of my ICS devices to perform even close to an acceptable level. Making everything from drawing to gaming either tedious or impossible. (I have 2 ICS devices, a viewsonic touchscreen monitor VSD220 and the Gadmei T883)

I was just wondering if anyone had any input as to what might've been allowing predators to have such smooth and responsive input versus every other app and why it would stop working on a newer firmware...

Also, any generic touchscreen issues, tweaks, fixes, etc. discussion is extremely encouraged here and I'd love to hear any hypothesis however asinine they may seem (entropy topics have been filled with all sorts of mud slinging, let's make a mess!)

where's the advances for the XDA people?

The phone has been launched only at the Orange shop (online) but it should come to shops in UK (E.U.) next week:

price is varying, but around the GB£200 mark.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DennisDD78:
Guys, today i successfully got root and first of all slightly changed the values in sysmon.cfg. Changed maximum brightness level (255) from first value till next four values, so there`s first five values set on maximum brightness, 255. And then the brightness gradually goes lower and lower till minimum (100) value. I did the same thing on my previous phone, Xperia T, and had no issues with this. What do you think, everyting will be OK with Z ? :) I don`t play games so much , more often surfing, music, movies. But when the screen is changing brightnes this is so annoying, so i`ve changed this values, but a little bit worry, because the screen is bigger and quad-core processor, so what do you think ?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DennisDD78:
Well, i guess noone knows exactly answer on this question, and in the meantime i changed the values, and set first 10 values to maximum (255) brightness level, and have no issues with this. Instead i have maximum brightness level of the screen when surfing and listening the music, but in games the screen still makes darker, when the temperature of the phone becomes too high, and in this condition i think the screen is better to be a darker indeed, to not to let the phone become too hot and not to damage it. But in the normal state i think that the screen in maximum brightness won`t damage the device. I hope so :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] plazaman91:
Hi guys,

Recently bought the xperia go worked fine for about 3 and a half weeks when i suddenly noticed while in work the phone was off so i thought i probably turned it off in my pocket.

Turned it back on but didn't bother 2 check put it back in pocket as i was busy.... few minutes later checked back on it phone off again!

Proceeded to turn it back on and waited, i noticed as soon as the phone got service from the SIM card it turned off.

Tried and tried to no avail..... eventually took out the SIM and tried another same problem then tried in airplane mode it worked tried without SIM in it worked.

Only when SIM is inserted and gets service this problem it happens.

So i flashed it over worked for at least an hour then got back same problem.

Has anyone ever had this problem? I Googled every possible keyword nothing comes up with this problem which is why i decided to post.....

So 2 days ago my phone just randomly started boot looping while I was out. When I finally got home the next day I tried 2 odin my phone back 2 stock. After some time passed I finally odin'd back 2 stock. When I tried 2 install a rom from cwm it started boot looping again. So I figured out that my power button is sticking which is causing the loop. I've tried using an alcholol wipe on it 2 remove the stickiness but it didn't work. Has anybody else experienced this or know of a way 4 me 2 fix it? Thanx in advance
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zuk.:
I've had my Nexus 10 for about 2 months. I'm running PA3 and haven't had any major issues until now.

Last night I plugged my tablet in. This morning it wouldn't boot.

When it's not plugged in nothing happens (the screen is always black) when I:

- Press the power button

- Long press the power button (tried many times over 2 minutes)

- Hold the power, vol up, and vol down (also tried different amounts of time for up to 2+ minutes)

When it's plugged in to the factory charger:

- Nothing happens when I press the power button

- If I long press the power button the battery icon with the lightning bolt comes up. The icon is fully white like when it's off and fully charged and you tap the power button.

- If I keep long pressing the power button (different intervals for over 2+ minutes) or long pressing all 3 buttons for the same lengths if time, I see the same full battery lightning bolt icon.

It takes roughly 7 seconds to appear, displays for 1-2 seconds, then disappears. This cycle continues as long as I'm holding down any combination of the above buttons.

That's all I can get it to do. It never seems like its attempting to boot, show any other icons, or or get into recovery / bootloader mode.

I called Google, and they walked me through the same steps. Then they told me to call Samsung because I bought the tablet through Staples so they refused to service mine.

I called Samsung at 888-987-4357. I got transferred 11 times. Nobody knew what a Nexus 10 was. They asked me to pull out the battery and read them the barcode and serial number from the back of the device. They also asked me to go into settings and get the IMEI number (which I can't do since it won't boot).

After an hour and a half on the phone with 11 people at Samsung I was told that they couldn't help me without an IMEI number and a model number.

I suppose this info might be on the box it came in. I'm on vacation in Texas so I don't have access to it.

Does anybody have any advice or suggestions, or do I have a $550 brick?

Thanks in advance.

If Staples won't replace it you will have to RMA it through Samsung. You have done all you can. 'It's dead Jim.'

I would try the Wug Fresh N10 toolkit and use the option that the device won't boot. This saved my galaxy nexus several times. Good Luck!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmatty:
A tip that I see posted on this topic is to try using a different charger/cable combo. (Let it sit on the alternate charging set up for a little while, then try booting it up.) I think the logic is that the slightly different voltages "knock it loose". Couldnt hurt to try...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zuk.:
Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll give them a shot tonight when I get home.

My only issue with RMA'ing through Samsung is that they won't do a damn thing for me until I give them the model number (which isn't Nexus 10 BTW) and barcode from underneath the battery.

(-_-)

They have no clue.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zuk.:
Now that I'm home I realized that the charger I was using was in fact not the OEM charger. I plugged it into that and it finally booted. :victory:

Once it finally booted up it showed charging and that the battery was at 0%. So the problem was that the battery was completely dead, but it wouldn't charge for whatever reason.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I appreciate it.
[HTC One S] mehcoib:
hi!

I'm owning a HTC One S since a few days, rooted, and I'm wondering about the best way to back up my device.

Actually I'd like to know what is the most powerful (i.e. more complete) backup app/method: Titanium/Go Backup (or similar), nandroid, or this one: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/ultimate-backup-tool-no-root-required/ ?

If I wipe my cell, which method will allow me to restore it with same apps installed, same icons at the same place, same data and

settings

for each app (just like a Norton Ghost/Acronis TrueImage)? I think it's the nandroid backup, but I'm not an expert...

2nd question : if I loose this phone and I buy a new one (exact same), will I be able to restore my backup in the new one? Would it work?

3rd question : what about a non-rooted device (thinking to my wife's One V)? can I do a "Ghost" of her phone BEFORE I unlocked her phone's bootloader?

THANK YOU
[HTC One S] mehcoib:
kinda feel alone here... :(

anyway, I read more and here is what I understood: nandroid will backup everything like a Ghost, including the ROM. Titanium Backup will backup my apps and data, but not the widgets and homescreen, and Go Backup will backup apps/data/widgets/homescreen.

By saying "apps and data" does it mean "app settings" ?
[HTC One S] travisjustin:
Don't know about go, but you are correct on everything else. App data is settings saved stuff etc, it's everything about that app. If you restore an app with data it will be exactly as it was when the backup was made.

You do need root to backup using titanium, but I think there are ways to back up some stuff, using other methods, but I don't know them.

Most people seem to gravitate to titanium. I use the app manager in ROM toolbox pro.

OK, question two, yes. Backup the folder from your sd card to a PC. If you get a new phone just copy it to the new phones sd card install titanium (or whatever you used) and restore.

As for three I think you need to be unlocked to install a custom recovery so I don't think so.

Edit: nandroids (what you refer to as a ghost) are done through a custom recovery.

[HTC One S] mehcoib:
thanks you for all your answers.

Can anyone confirm Titanium Backup will not restore my "icons"/widgets/homescreens?
[HTC One S] travisjustin:
You can, just need to find the system setting for the launcher and backup the data. As long as your new rom uses that same launcher. For example cm uses trebuchet. Apex and Nova are two popular third party ones. Widgets aren't saved though, everything else is.

If you're not using a launcher like apex or Nova I highly recommend you try it. I can't imagine going back to the stock launcher. Plus you don't have to worry about what launcher the rom uses, just back up your third party one like any other app and install on your new rom. Then hit home, set it as default, simple.

Hello,

I recently installed the CM 10.1 version and I loved the multi window feature that comes with 4.2. But the ROM was just too buggy for me to use as a daily driver so I went back to CM 10.0. Is there any way I could download and use the multi window app with CM 10.0?

Also quick side question. What is the keyboard used with CM 10.1? its very similar to the android one.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levman:
I just got my One today, and one of the first things I tried was to install my favorite launcher, LauncherPro Plus. It installed and seemed to work, but I quickly discovered that, because the One doesn't have a "menu" button and because LauncherPro apparently doesn't adhere to the latest Android application design guidelines, what you end up with is a big horizontal black bar with three vertically aligned dots (HTC's solution for apps that still require a menu button) between the launcher icons and the capacitive buttons - which sadly makes it a non starter for me, unfortunate because I really like LauncherPro.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budroux:
[MENTION=1115853]levman[/MENTION], I too like launcher pro but last I saw, Frederico stopped supporting it around Android 2.2 or so. Did he return to this project?

I guess 2.2 would work on this phone....or not. :o

Edit; I guess I should have said that Launcher Pro was last based off android 2.2. He of course re-wrote a ton of that code.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hrrsncrawford14:
So my At&t One X (evita) has been rooted and the bootloader has been unlocked for some time now. I came from the old Htc Hero on Sprint, so I am use to rooting and flashing roms. The issue is I decided to try Cm10 and I flashed it correctly through the flash gui app. An update appeared at the top so I (like a noob) decided to install it.. I realized after the fact how I had messed up by not using flash gui (boot.img ,etc..) , So it would boot to the Htc logo and then just blackness would occur. I could and still could go to the bootloader successfully though. My mistake was doing a whole factory reset from the phone so no more TWRP recovery unit... I went back to the utility that I rooted and unlocked my bootloader on and relocked it just in case I needed to flash something such as a RUU (whatever that is) but I do have one ready to be installed. I tried to do it myself and kept getting the sentence in the picture posted... Can anyone help me??:confused::confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
that picture doesn't help much, my not relock bootloader run the .exe ruu. then reunlock and flash twrp then flash a rom? also flashimagegui doesnt flash a rom all it does it flash boot.img and modules or recovery. you still have to reboot into recovery and flash the rom zip. since youve used android before it is an easy fix. so fix it already =)

Okay well i have a rooted Evo 4g LTE and i am sort of a newb with terms and what not however i have had this phone rooted for quite a while. Yesterday i think i really ****ed my phone up i was running cm 10 and got an update for cm10.1 in my notifications so i went and tried to do that without wiping anything... big mistake apparently cause it didnt work so i was going to factory reset and re install the rom now when i did that my computer said please format disk drive and it would not allow me to access my files. So at that point im stuck with a phone with no rom or access to my files. Today i got a SD card and decided to try to wipe it once before i put on the new rom on guess what it said factory reset failed it couldnt mount the SD card or something like that. So i am still stuck with a useless phone just to tell you i have twrp v2.3.3.0 dont no if that helps or not but thats what it is. Also it is weird that i am able to flash zips but i still cant turn the phone on when i do it only goes to the htc quietly brilliant screen. Any answers will be accepted please feel free to ask questions thank you.

You need to fastboot flash the boot.img of the rom you are trying to flash
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dustinkeen25:
ok well how would you go about doing that sorry like i said not real good with terms more of a hands on kinda guy
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dustinkeen25:
I understand that i get it from inside the cm10.1 zip folder but where do i put the boot.img on the SD card? and then how do i fastboot flash it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LuigiBull23:
Download kernel intended for your device. Inside the zip will be a boot.img file. Extract the boot.img to where ever you have adb and fastboot located (in sdk > platform tools). Once in that folder hold shift key then select "open command here". Type "fastboot devices" then enter and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dustinkeen25:
Thanks but one more problem there is no boot.img it is a boot disk image file
