Well, I thought I might as well root and load a custom ROM onto my phone (seeing as the Vodacom software on it does not seem to work properly).

I managed to root the device easily (following a tutorial on the XDA forums). I then downloaded odin and a cusom ROM from the site, custom ROM needs the stock ROM installed, so I downloaded that as well. OK, phone shows green android logo in Odin Mode, now Windows fails to install the drivers for my device.

Let's try Linux (I am running Peppermint Three), I install Heimdall (works like Odin), the ROM I downloaded for Odin won't work here and there isn't a ROM available for Heimdall for the s5300.

So now I am stuck halfway through loading a different ROM onto my phone. Have heard I can try installing KIES for the Windows drivers. Will try that and report back.

*** Time for an update:

Downloaded and installed Kies. Windows now properly detects my phone, Odin showed the yellow block it was supposed to, and my phone is rooted and flashed to stock Android. Thanks to everyone at this forum for their great articles. Hopefully I will get better at this stuff some day.

Hey guys, been neglecting my YouTube channel for a couple of months now, but i really want to get back into it. I used to have a steady stream of videos, but ever since I got my One-X and my HD2 died, I haven't had any video ideas or any inspiration to make any videos, so I'm looking to you guys for help. If anyone has any ideas or needs a video tutorial or even a app/rom review because they're not sure whether to install it or not, then feel free to ask!

If you would like to check out my existing videos then the link is below.

Recently I was exploring the possibility of making themes for Go Launcher (or similar, but I think Go Launcher is the most widespread), and I realized (we must not be very rogue) you can make some money with them.

Does anyone know how to sell themes, or someone has experience with these issues? :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dEris:
Yes. I know if people making theme chooser themes and themes for other apps like go launcher. You must make a theme that is worth money and you will make money. Just submit to play store. Build a reputation first.

If you are doing it to make money then you are here for the wrong reasons. Also I would pick a different set of apps to theme for. The go apps are not the best (full of security holes) and more and more people are sick of the bloat and moving to other apps.

in regards to Go Theme creation and Apex Theme Creation. Is there any type of themes that would be off the table for commercial use?..I've made tons of Go Themes but I've never submitted them as I don't care for the companies shifting practices (deep sixing the PC Theme Creator client and the web sms feature that made go sms unique without telling anyone)

I've made themes from all kinds of Anime and Video Game Characters. And the Themes i've been seeing in the Play Stores that are based on anime (and some on video game ) themes have usually been removed.

Hi, Thanks to all who provide support and answer questions on this forum.

I need some help. I'm on a droid Razr MAXX, rooted, SafeStrap 3.11, Android ICS 4.0.4, System Version .211.XT912.

I've successfully flashed a few ROMS, ALL ICS ROMS (Flick, Eclipse,..). However when I tried installing any AOSP,AOKP,CM9+ mods The wireless would constantly say my router was "Not In Range" or would be completely non functional as in not even toggling on. So I've given up troubleshooting it and want to start from scratch. I need to know how to completely remove SafeStrap (properly) and Completely wipe all Data on my phone. Everything. Even the folders from old apps that are no longer installed and contain misc. files that are not being used and just taking up space.

I tried Factory Reset from within SafeStrap, and that still left the misc. folders i was talking about on my phone. If I just do a factory data reset from within the phone itself SETTINGS>Privacy>Factory Data reset, will that do what im wanting. Will it get rid of safestrap, or do i need to remove that and unroot first?

I've read places that suggest flashing an SBF file, and I've heard that thats required for using some of the newer JB roms (have to flash a JB SBF Kernel, am i understanding that right?), but I cant find the most recent version of RSD Lite, havent used it before, and honestly dont want to go that far yet until I can get these roms i've been messing with working first.

Thanks in advance for any help. Sorry for the long post :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Gus194:
Try downloading the SafeStrap app and then from there choose "Uninstall Recovery"

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Cptnjarhead:
This thread isnt s2 speicific but i love my s2 and xda has the best minds around so..

My bosses are due for an upgrade and i have been reading everything under the sun about which smartphone has the best battery life... problem is, every website has different results if any on battery life. I realize that big screens and quad-core are all the buzz, but the HTC inspire that one of my bosses has, is a battery hog. We have tried everything to get more life out of the phone, new batteries, multiple batteries and nothing seems to help. The one with the HTC is a power user. Texting and calling around the clock. I would like to get him another HTC with the same screen size because he is used to it. Any ideas/websites would be appreciated. I have read too many reviews and battery life seems to be an afterthought with most reviewers. I like to see test results and comparasions on battery life but so far i have not seen any good ones.

thanks in advance!

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ansaar99:
Hi,

I upgraded my xda to the SE v1.2 ROM a few weeks back. I was running the 4.16 radio stack for many months without issue, so i left it at that.

A week after the upgrade, the phone slowed, and could get any radio signal, the backlight flashed intermittently, and on soft reboot, it wouldnt pick up any radio stack version num etc. Phone section was not working. Only on hard reboot did it start working again.

I thought maybe it was the new rom and incompatibility with the older radio stack, so i updated with the latest radio stack from o2 Uk website, v4.21.

However, after one day, i suddenly found the phone had gone again, and teh radio stack wasnt recoverable after soft reboot. I had to hard reboot again.

All my updates have gone without a hitch, and i havent installed any funny apps.

Someone else must be experiencing this too ? Ay resolution?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Startup:
I have had the exact same symptoms on my PDA (PW10B1) with 6.24 of the stack. It was happening about every 4 hours or so. I reloaded the stack and its been working for about a day now without any problems.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ansaar99:
Thing is i had the official rom from UK o2, from about 4 months ago (1 think 3.14), and there was never this issue.

Now ive cold booted twice, and upgraded the radio stack, and im still getting the prob. Ive down everything standard, no funny apps etc.. so i cant imagine many others are suffering the same.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Bedammit:
I have seen this on my XDA (T-mobile)

I have had 4 XDA replacements (I have had stability problems)

Even with the default ROM and Radio.

I had the screen flash not just the blacklight and lost functionality till I reset the unit.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ansaar99:
are u in the uk? Did the provider happily exchange the xda based on what you described as your prob, or did you have to argue with them?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Bedammit:
Ansaar99

Sorry for the long Delay..

I omplained and then they replaced it.

Basically thats their answer to everything here.

Send them a new phone..

kinda sucks

Kinda rocks

but

in the end if it doesnt solve the problem its doesnt matter.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Peter Poelman:
About units having to be replaced four times:

I have a feeling that there's a quality control problem in the handling and repair of these things. Many 'repairs' probably just mean the unit gets swapped with one that's lying around somewhere up in the supply chain. And if that's a unit that someone else brought back because of an intermittent problem, you have only problematic units lying around at some point.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyberman222:
Hello, I was wondering whether anyone could help me with my problem when I flash Paranoid Android to my phone.

I use CWM (best version I can get hold of) 6.0.2.7.

The problem is that I flash the ROM (after wiping data, clearing cache and dalvik cache), install the ZIP and the Google Apps ZIP and when I reboot I get the "Samsung Galaxy SIII i9300" (Black background, white text) pop up for about 3-4 seconds, then disappear for another 2-3 seonds, then keeps repeating this process. I have run this for at least 5 minutes and for a noob like me (first time :D) it is pretty worrying.

I'll just add that the pop up screen has a little RED Exclamation Mark (!) in the top left (whether that means something).

I am not sure what to do, after doing this I have to take out the battery to stop it, then I boot to CWM and wipe data and go back to my restore I made of stock Jellybean.

I am wondering if anyone can help me and I would be very grateful! :)

Thanks!

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] osiris010:
Ever since the 4.2.1 update I've noticed an extremely obnoxious issue when listening to music. Texts and other notifications interrupt the music when using headphones or even the speaker. What's more annoying is that traditionally (this holds true on all android phones and iPhones I've ever owned) one simply puts the phone in either vibrate or silent mode and no more notifications interrupting your music. In Jelly Bean, it seems they forgot to implement this. Regardless of what sound profile I am in, silent, vibrate or normal my text tone comes through my headphones and interrupts the music.

Does anyone know a good way to fix this issue? Maybe a settings option I missed? Disabling text notifications ever time I listen to music would be a little ridiculous. I text while I listen to music all the time and it's highly annoying.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] danchoi704:
Easy, switch to airplane mode.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ruwsoft:

Airplane mode shuts off all radios...so no more texting...

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] danchoi704:
Without notification u will not know incoming text.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] KieMarshall:
you don't need the music to stop to know a text has come in, as the OP said he wants a constructive fix for his issue not senseless comments which don't help the issue.

I would like to second the OP's Request, I have had this issue since ICS 4.0.4 where any notification will pause the music for a couple of seconds, this has been the HARDEST thing to get used to from my past life as devoted iPhone user. it is very frustrating, and I've noticed that I don't believe its OS related, but actually the individual application which deals with how the notifications interrupt.

Any help would be appreciated. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
Yes it's definitely not OS related, Its the way Sony handles it I guess.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] KieMarshall:
I believe that Spotify does pause the music, along with the Walkman app, but I seam to remember a more niche player just lowering the volume for notifications.

unfortunately I don't believe this is something we as a community can fix, other than to recommend your application maker to update their app.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SeventeenV:
Which Xperia are you using? If it really becomes too big an issue, there is always the option of rooting and using a different ROM.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
I'm using the T. But I have yet to use Poweramp and test it because it has a separate setting for notification focus. Yes I think a CM rom might fix it. But as of now I don't want CM coz stock is way better. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Phoenixhawk1976:
Sorry to be the millionth person asking this, but I have nothing frozen, or uninstalled. I got this Phone with 2.3.5 Gingerbread I rooted it and played with it for a month then reverted it and then did a factory reset. Months and months later it finally OTA updated from Gingerbread (Stock) to Ice Cream Sandwich (Stock) Now that Jellybean is finally here, the OTA doesn’t work on my phone. For the past couple days I’ve been trying everything I could think of.

1.)	I downloaded and installed update via Wifi, after the download completes, phone reboots, ¼ of the way through the droid falls over with no error, reboots again with a message dialog saying the update failed

2.)	I downloaded and installed update via 4G, after the download completes, phone reboots, ¼ of the way through the droid falls over with no error, reboots again with a message dialog saying the update failed

3.)	I did a factory reset from Settings | Privacy afterwards I download and installed update , after the download completes, phone reboots, ¼ of the way through the droid falls over with no error, reboots again with a message dialog saying the update failed

4.)	I powered the phone off, start up in recovery, wipe cache partition, reboot again and do a factory reset again from Settings | Privacy afterwards I download and installed update , after the download completes, phone reboots, ¼ of the way through the droid falls over with no error, reboots again with a message dialog saying the update failed

5.)	I powered the phone off, start up in recovery, wipe cache partition, and do a wipe data/factory reset, afterwards I download and installed update , after the download completes, phone reboots, ¼ of the way through the droid falls over with no error, reboots again with a message dialog saying the update failed

6.)	I downloaded Blur_Version.6.16.211.X1912.Verizon.en.US.zip copied it to the SD card, rebooted into recovery and it failed yet again but at least this time I’ve got some info.

Can someone please try taking a call with the phone plugged into the headset port (auxiliary) of a car stereo? With the S3 callers report a terrible echo of their voice when the call is played over the speaker, I didn't have this problem with previous android devices, and I'm curious if the HTC One properly handles this or if the caller hears terrible echo.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hongsit:
1. Too early to tell. Especially new phone, means I'm constantly messing around with it.

2. Apart from my issue with a very tiny gap, build quality is fine. Some may disagree but in terms of workmanship my iphone is better. Phone does feel solid though

3. Slightly, you get use to it though

4. Good, not much reflection. No sun these days, so hard to get a judgement of reflection in sunlight.

5. Awsome! As good as you ever get on a phone.

6. Sorry, haven't taken any yet.

[Motorola Atrix 2] androiddecoded:
This might be a noob question, but I want to know that since our bootloader is locked, how we are able to port Cynaogenmod and other ROMs like Paranoid Android to Atrix 2? Recently official AOSP ROM was released for Moto RAZR which also has a locked bootloader. So why we can't have an official CM for Atrix 2?

What difference is there between a CM port and an official CM for unlocked bootloader device ?

Just some noob questions which came in my mind. Please clarify. Sorry for a silly question.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
It all surrounds around the kernel. Unlocked bootloader devices can run "custom" compiled kernels, and CM and the other "custom" non-stock based roms all have their own kernels too.

The reason that we can run "unofficial" versions is because your devs (me included), have to compile the ROM around the "stock" kernel, so that it can be installed right along side the stock kernel, and run without issue. All of the AOSPA, and PA, and such are the same exact way.

Anything that can be done on the Razr can pretty much be done on this phone. The thing is that your dev team is much smaller on the A2 as it was not a very popular device, so it takes longer if ever to get something since the devs make the choice to work on a specific ROM or not.

Also the "official" CM compiles are done by the cyanogen mod team themselves and they do all the coding and have an auto compile server to get the versions out to the public, so again it is up to the developers there to decide which phones they want to support. Again though if you look all the "official" build devices ALL have unlocked bootloaders in some form or fashion, so that the "custom" compiled kernel will install with out issue.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Actually, it looks like Hashcode and dhacker recently got the RAZR included in the "official" CM nightlies... http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Spyder_Info

So, if something stable enough is worked out for the A2 (i.e. kexec), then we could possibly see an "official" edison of some sort at some point... in theory.

For now, I'll be happy with stable "unofficial" builds..
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
That is still not considered "official" cyanogen builds.....

If it is not listed here, then it is not 100% official:

http://get.cm

It is lets say.... an unofficial, "official" build, though. LOL
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Um, Jim.. spyder and umts_spyder are both listed there :p

Still, I think Hashcode and dhacker have the status/connections to get it dubbed "official"..
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
;) so do I.... Don't forget who is on the cm coding team....

I did some looking internally at CM and found that these are semi-official, right now, with a big but, the kexec I am told is what is keeping it with the semi status...

They are looking into changing that for kexec based compiles, so.... Hopefully, that happens.
[Motorola Atrix 2] androiddecoded:
Thanks for the reply. I wish I could also develop something for Atrix 2. But I am not familiar with the development. How is it done? and where do you test it and all other things? Is there some starting tutorial there for it? Or maybe some place from where you all guys started learning the developement?
