I installed a piece of software, which i had hoped would install onto my SD card. It ignored the request in the "install to default location" box, when i picked storage card.

So i tried uninstalling it. However, it said a number of files were in use of "read only". One of these was \windows\dl.dll

I checked the file, it wasnt in memory (how can i tell anyhow?), and it wasnt read only, but i wasnt allowed to even manually delete it.

Anyone know the best approach to these situations?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] rezz16:
Try to soft reset your device, then try to uninstall directly after booting process. It works for me all the time, it seems that some application locks the file you need to be uninstalled.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ansaar99:
I think i tried that. It was a Today screen Item. So i took it out from the today screen. Then rebooted. But still the files seemed to be "in use"

hi guys,

i don't understand if smarttags are not working on my sola and FXP210 because of me or it is not supported.

when i put a tag on the nfc sensor , nothing happens (with the standard sony stock ics smarttags was working).

I'd love to use Freexperia on my sola beacuse i'm a big fan of CM that i use on many android other devices and because freexperia fixed the slow camera of sony ICS on my sola.

thank you for any support
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dimon2242:
NFC Read/Write is not working in FXP!

You probably missed the post by J from FPX team who commented on various queries by members on its thread on smart tag not working despite FPX says its fixed NFC...

He clarified that file transfer is working not tags which will be rectified inda future ..

Hi guys I have a problem. My phone doesn't charge I tried with the USB wall charger, other phones chargers and no charger fixes it. I plug it in sometimes it starts blinking (the red light) and than turns on but in next 2 min it is off again.
[HTC One X] viizx:
Please someone ;)
[HTC One X] mhoss48:
Is it working ? Provide more info.

[HTC One X] Tw1tchy:
Boot into fastboot. Plug into wall cahrger. Leave for 30 min. Check if charged. Simple
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
The phone in fastboot/bootloader if that is what you mean ? Will not charge the battery
[HTC One X] s.izeman:
I haven't tested, but people say that the phone charges in TWRP. Worth a try?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes in the latest recoverys the batt will charge that's correct, but it is not charging on the bootloader screen !

CWM 5.8.4.0 and higher have this function for sure.
[HTC One X] viizx:
And I can't do anything cause I locked the phone and now when I select power down he is up again when I turn the charger. I don't know what to do.... But I think I have faulty battery cause I charged him to 100% before I got him oem lock....
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah that's strange, can you enter the bootloader now ?

You can try this battery script

https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaah8gqz8j024xz/Batt script.bat

Copy the file into the fastboot folder and run it. It reboots the bootloader constantly and charge it little by little..... Maybe it gives the extra power you need to unlock and flash a custom recovery to charge in there.

Even if you charged it full. Its the only option i have
[HTC One X] viizx:
Ok I have reseted him about 40 times now and he reacted. When I could flash I didn't want to unlock him again so I flashed the RUU and it is all going fine hope it works ;) and many thanks
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
"Fingers crossed"
[HTC One X] viizx:
It worked, thank you for an advice with the rebooting ;)))

Hi All,

Does anyone know when our next payout date is for our apps that have been selling in the Google Play Market??

The info Google has given us developers is so confusing to say the least!!

The current payout info states:

Payout Schedule

Current Transaction Processing	3/1/13 - 3/31/13

Previous Month's Payout Date	3/15/13

Next Payout Date	4/15/13

Makes NO SENSE!!! How could the current transaction be a month that isn't even finished yet?? How could the previous month's payout day be tomorrow? Does that mean we will paid tomorrow and then again 4/15/2013 and on the 15th from every month going forward? I sure hope that is what it means.

If anyone knows for sure, please shed some light for me!!

Thank you on advance gurus

K :confused:

hello everybody

is there any program witch can make pic like this one

waiting for ideas
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] AndroidSlave:
That's a fishlens effect ( or real thing)

You can do it on a computer with photoshop
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] 7esain:
so there is not any problems that could do it with galaxy note?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] AndroidSlave:
There very well may be. I don't know... was just trying to guide you to the right direction by telling you what the effect is called.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] mR.fR34ky:
Isnt it jsut a panorama picture?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] AndroidSlave:
No you see how it skews around the edges like a fishbowl...?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] prabhu1980:
FishBowl ?? I dont think so , its just a photo taken from end of a stadium.

The Skew looks like a natural stadium look to me.

Galaxy Note can take this photo as any other mobile with 8MP camera can.

Go Ahead Shoot and lets know whats the difference
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] apurvapatel:
Most likely it is taken with a fish eye lens attached to the camera.

Check it here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] xhaniGS2:
This is fisheye lens, without lens u can not make the photo look like this. I have fish eye lens.. used on galaxy s2.. u can search on ebay amazon for fisheye lens.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] 7esain:
does it work on note 1?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Quimerinha:
No, that's a Fisheye Lens/Conversor(Or the guy used an effect) and you can't take shots like that on the Note or any mobile(Whether it's an 8MP camera or an 30MP with some badass fullframe sensor) if you don't have the lens(As far as i know they only make fisheye converters to iPhone), what you can do is edit on Photoshop and try to simulate the fisheyes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] prabhu1980:
Tnx
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] sharkteef:
yup its fisheye lens. they are selling it real cheap over at my place. only bout 5-6 usd.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] xhaniGS2:
This is from my s2. Its made with 6mp couse 8mp is to much black on wide. U can crop a little to look better.. this is not croped.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] kingears:
Just search fish eye in the play store

Hey guys, anyone got a 2.17.61.3 stock nandroid backup for ORANG001 (Orange UK)?

Then you have to wait until its fixed, or when bugsy get the chance to host it on his sire :(
[HTC One X] Viridis:
Yeah :s

Trying to update my hboot, because right now the phone randomly turns off and requires me to hold down the power button. Also gets stuck on optimizing apps.

Thought I'd ask here in case anyone had it floating around in their download folder.

Thanks though!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Maybe there is a JB firmware in the firmware collection thread to update the hboot and then restore the JB nandroid ?

Your cid and firmware is listed here + firmware download

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
[HTC One X] Viridis:
That could work! Would I flash the firmware in the same way as I would in the RUU/hboot upgrade guides, or can I skip locking the bootloader and stock recovery?

Like:

fastboot oem lock

reboot

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip <zip>

re-unlock etc.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes thats it :)
[HTC One X] Viridis:
Did all that, stock rom crashed, flashed IceColdJelly and that crashed after a while. Phone won't turn on now like before, might turn on after a while, I always have to hold down the button for a long time now.

Thinking maybe this is a hardware / battery problem although everyone was fine before I when from Carbon 1.3 -> 1.5, going back to 1.3 didn't help. :(

Not really sure what to do now :s
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Do the firmware flash all over ! Then reflash the custom recovery, perform a real good wipe and install the rom again. Helped before when i suggested it with someone who experienced similar problems
[HTC One X] Viridis:
Did all that, everything went fine until booting into system again, it crashed pretty much just after setup-up. The screen freezes and the button lights go to full brightness.

Would it be worth completely formatting the SD card too?

Trying to think of anything I'm doing wrong.. I do use the Motorola charger rather than an HTC one but I doubt that matters.

Thanks for helping thus far though!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Also for flashing ? Never use another cable then the original !

And yeah its worth the try. Did you perform a full wipe in the recovery....really all stuff ? Caches, dalvik cache....data, system, factory reset. Then install the new rom and flash the boot.img....also wipe cache after flashing the boot.img

Fastboot erase cache

It looks more like a not good wipe problem to me
[HTC One X] Viridis:
OK I did a full wipe this time, system, sd card. I've got TWRP on there now which works fine. I flashed ICJ then the boot.img as well as wiping the cache.

Phone booted up fine was working for quite a while before it crashed again, the phone was plugged in using the Motorola plug charger when it crashed. I've been using a battery pack too which uses the power connection on the back.

The phone wouldn't turn on until I plugged it into USB for a while (no led) and held down power + volume down. I'm going to charge it up to full via usb in TWRP then see if it still crashes without charging and without the battery pack on.

I hope it doesn't because then it could just be I need to get the HTC plug/cable and stop using the case.

If it's a hardware problem then I'm not sure I'll be able to get it repaired as I bought this second hand (with a receipt, I could see if I can proof of purchase) and have unlocked the bootloader etc.

I suppose if the phone won't turn on though they can't know that.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Like i said ..... only use original stuff ;)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Any update ?
[HTC One X] Viridis:
It crashed in recovery while making a backup and I haven't manage to get it back on yet, I've ordered a HTC cable / plug though. If I get it on I'll just charge it then turn it off, as when I turn it off (as opposed to it crashing) it turns on normally.

Not really looking good though :(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Sorry to hear this :(
[HTC One X] Viridis:
Got the HTC plug and nothing seems different, still totally dead.I think it is a hardware failure of some sort, as with all the different software combinations I tried it was crashing regardless. (At least that's what I tell myself.)

I'm going to see if I can get it repaired on warranty and hope they don't check the IMEI.

Thanks for all the help :)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke mate ! I hope you get it fixed soon
[HTC One X] Viridis:
Good news! HTC have fixed it and sent it back, charging it for a few hours now before I turn it on.

I'm not sure what broke it but I was using the wrong charger for the phone and also a cheap battery case to prolong its daily usage. I'm not sure whether I want to risk flashing roms again but I really don't like sense, it depends if I bricked it or not.

HI

I have read it in some threads somewhere but I couldn't find it. I have some bugs with my sms system and would probably need to hard reset my xda. Will I need to unlock the xda again with the xda manipulator after hard reset? What are the ways not having to manually reinstall programs one by one after hard reset?

Cheers

Vic
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Carlos:
Once unlocked, it stays unlocked even after a hard reset.

To avoid reinstalling and reconfiguring, do a backup with something like Sprite's PocketBackup (highly recommended). When you restore, just don't restore the problem databases.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] smaslift:
Thanks Carlos,

Will do that . Does SD backup work the same way? Does it backup the old settings and hence defeat the purpose of my resetting of the xda?

Cheers

Vic
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Carlos:
I only used it once, it's horribly slow. In ever tried a restore, so I don't know if you can exclude specific files. Use the Sprite product; you can do it in the eval period. But it is worth buying and using regularly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ixijimixi:
Hi guys. After accidentally wandering into the N7105 boards, I was finally directed here. I'm coming off of an Infuse running Beanstalk. I haven't even activated the phone yet, and already I'm looking at the ROMs :D I have a couple of quick (hopefully) questions.

On my Infuse, I had a heck of a time with choppy video recording. Is that just the case with the Note 2? And, if so, what should I avoid to keep that from happening...just the ROMs based off of CM10.1, or any ROM that's ported or modded past 4.1?

If I end up avoiding those, am I effectively locked out from using Theme Chooser themes?

Sorry for the newb questions. I just want to hit the ground running :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Doggydude:
So far from my experience the Note's video capture is amazing, it even has slo mo. I have not tested capture in AOSP, but I can say from prior experiences that you will not get AS good quality, but it is not very much different. I stayed on Touchwiz because I like all the extra camera stuff that works better like burst and slo mo and other things, and I hacked on the android 4.1 camera so I can do photosphere.

In the end its all up to you, and since you haven't really done much to the phone, it shouldn't be too much of a hassle to try different roms if you backup!

Good luck and welcome to the Note 2, you will enjoy it :)

hey.

my simple trick to restore my sms messeages from a "Sony backup & Restore"-FullBackup was, that i backuped only the empty messages again to a new Restorepoint. than i replaced the created file with that one from the fullbackup folder. only replace the file and do not delete other files or folders!

when you restore now from the last backup, you will get the content from the fullbackup.

i hope, this will help you ... but you need the Sony backup App for this procedure

This used to happen on my phone, and it still happens on my wife's. Basically she presses call, and the call won't initiate for 30-60 seconds. The phone is rooted with factory fp1e. I just wiped it a few days ago, started fresh, and right now it is her only complaint. I've tried wiping cache and dalvik. I also tried to fix permissions with cwm 4.xx but the log says it's missing some sort of file. I tried permissions with ROM toolbox but it just spins for hours... I don't think it did anything.

Mine does that too sometimes and rebooting seems to help for a bit. Sucks when trying to win something off the radio and you have to be caller #19 or whatever :(
[Verizon Droid Charge] fm325:
Mine was doing the same but only worse. It could take minutes before it dialed. Even worse, it would dial while I was on the phone because I pressed "Send" so many times before. The problem is really bad for me because I have a older phone. Anyway, I fixed it by doing the following. I used Cool Tools, OS Monitor and Watchdog to look for runaway apps or processes that use too much CPU. I removed many tweaks I've added like SD boost and Dalvik Heap size and set them back to the stock settings. Using a tool like Rom Toolbox, set your CPU to maximum while the screen is on, normal when it's not. My CPU usage while idle is now very low (<5%). Cool Tool is a great tool for checking this. I also recommend you try CrossBreeder by idcrisis. It's better than the Seeder app, in my opinion. Good luck... :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JonnyZaggi:
When I was on Custom Roms (CM, AOKP, PA) I had the following Problems:

Screen does not turn on after call

Random Reboots (especially during calls)

Device Getting Slow (Trim-Erase)

Sometimes takes long to wake up and show lockscreen

So I tried different Roms (As mentioned above) and used the lagfix app (even bought the pro version to shedule it for every day).

The Call Problem persisted but the other ones were first gone but reoccured after 1-2 Weeks of Usage.

So I went back to Stock (4.2.2).

After one week of usage I have again the following problems:

Random Reboots During call

Long Screen-Wake Times (especially when Navigation is on)

Google Play does not start, just crashes (And yes I tried to remove updates, clean cache and data...)

Any Idea whats wrong with my device?
