[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImperatorShade:
Installing custom roms will give you a lot more features and flexibility than the stock rom.

Look at paranoid android, you get pie controls instead of the nav bar to save space, you can have tablet mode in apps, automatically change nav bar and status bar colours according to app etc! :)

okay so my epic is turning off all the time when i open or close keyboard and its happening more frequently...iv been calling around phone repair stores in my town and every1s saying its the flex cable and goes out every 2years or so they said....so has any1 every done this???it cost like 7bucks for a flex cable and in my town it cost 45 bucks to repair this and would rather do it myself but it looks so hard to actually get to the flex cable to replace it :\
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
My Epic did that with the extended battery. I put a piece of matchbook cover between the battery and cover... Problem solved.

I dropped it in water . Watched a you tube video for opening the epic. I think it was for screen replacement. It was about a year ago so i dont remember the details. I stripped the thing down completely and cleaned the inside. It was not difficult so I imagine just replacing the cable would be slightly simpler.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic559:
I think it might be my extended battery and might try match book thing as said ima order a slim qcell epic touch battery see how that goes I lost oem battery and battery door cuz I have 3extended hyperion batteries and not sure where the hell my oem backing and battery are 2of the hyperions have messed up bars where the battery connects to the epic and the good1 dosnt make my epic turn off much at all

On a side note my keys when I type with the keyboard arnt working to good so maybe there is something wrong and my phone turns off from opening or closing keyboard on good battery but a lot less 4sure

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UPdownLoAD:
I have replaced my flex cable twice and my hinge assembly once on my personal Epic, and was employed at a cell phone repair company where I replaced several others. There are YouTube guides on how to do this (Ifixit is a good source), but you will need patience and a good, small phillips head screwdriver and pry tool (I recommend a guitar pic). It should calmly take you 45 uninterrupted minutes for the entire repair.

When you buy one cable, buy TWO- you will most likely cut the flex cable upon reassembly unless you are careful. I have used this cable/company several times (the same company also sells on eBay): https://www.wholesalegadgetparts.com/product.php?productid=17839

I too spoke to O2 today. I spoke to the guy I normally speak to and he said that they are having trouble with getting PPC 2003 working :evil: Are we all doomed to a life without GPRS :shock: It seems so until I flash my ROM back to XDA-Dev 1.2

I'll keep bugging O2 until they can give me an answer about the GPRS settings. Perhaps a new version of the ROM is required :?:

GPRS not working

Yes I have the same problem, my phone works fine and all other functions seem fine except I have no access to the SD card, it does show up at all. I just can not get GPRS going. I noticed that when the phone is in the sync cradle and PC is connected to the internet there is no internet on the phone where as there was with PPC2002.

ANY IDEAS PLEASE..........

Note: I also downloaded from FTP: 195.64.88.44 for rom upgrade.
[Networking] Grim_Evil:
i can access my sd card no problem, coonect to the internet with sync, its just my gsd and gprs thats comp. dead, with this rom???

maybe you have to reformat your sd card for it to work??, and have you set you internet to use the dial up or you sync connection, i had to change my back to get it back working when i was syncing etc?
[Networking] cliffai:
I got mine from here...

Server: ftp.zensay.com

user: qtek

passwd: qtek

When it was originally posted

Only thing I did was had to go into the bootloader screen and set the GSM back to 900 & 1800 after I had gone into the band setting screen in the 2003OS

Sorry to say setting up GPRS was a sinch,

APN name

User name

Password

thats it,

I also checked whether PAP or CHAP authentication makes a difference and it connects with either although CHAP is possibly a bit slower to connect.

Obvious question the phone is displaying the the G symbol when you tap the aerial icon? As I said I had all sorts of GPRS problems the other week which I put down to network issues as nothing else had changed - G symbol wasn't always coming on when switching on the phone - and transfering the SIM to my old T39 showed the GPRS coming and going every few minutes.
[Networking] Grim_Evil:
cliffai, which bootloader etc are you using, and did you upgrade yours by the programme a or sd way?

as mine is still not working :( looks like i am going back to the 1.2 xda rom then:(

ps: yes mine is always showing the G in the info etc, so i know its ment to be on gprs, but even without the G i can not even get a gsm connection also?
[Networking] seal:
So SO SO simple

Yes I reformated the card on card reader on PC and yes the phone now see's the card

THANKS THANKS THANKS :lol: :P :lol:

Still no GPRS

Hi

I have tried every setting mentioned to get GPRS setup on PPC2003.

My XDA version is:

ROM Version : 4.00.05 ENG

ROM Date : 06/05/03

Radio : 4.12.00

I do get the [G] symbol in if i click on the connectivity icon at the top of the screen, so GPRS is available.

As a lot of other people have said, the phone works fine but no GPRS unless you go back to PPC2002.

I live in London. Is their a possibility that O2 is blocking GPRS requests from XDA's running pre-release versions of PPC2003?

Anyone else have any more info.??

Thanks

Don't know why, don't care why.

[Networking] quest1uk:
O2 GPRS Setting on 2003rom

OK, the setup for gprs on 2003 is slightly different to 2002.

first thing to do is go to start/settings/connections.

a page will be displayed with the headings:

MY ISP and

MY WORK NETWORK each with sub catorgories.

under the MY ISP click on ADD A NEW MODEM CONNECTION.

1.name the connection (eg.GPRS)

2.select the modem, CELLULAR LINE(GPRS)

3.set the access point name, MOBILE.O2.CO.UK

4.username is exactly that (username) and password is password.

5.leave domain blank and click advanced, then servers.

6.use specific server address:

193.113.200.200 and

193.113.200.201.

7.Ok everything and that's it. you do not need to adjust or set any other settings.

The connection should just work, i have installed 2003 on a number of devices and never had a problem yet.

Hello everyone

Today I have two questions to ask everyone.

First how to create extra volume levels on the volume bar.

Second how to add more tones to notification. I want to have a new tone when I have a notification.

Thank you.

Best wishes.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droiderr:
I can answer your second question. Look for the folder where the notifications are stored and copy the tone you want to select there. It will now appear in the sounds when go there for selection.

Alternatively install ES file explorer (free form google play). Now after this when u try to select a tone u will get an option to browse thru ES explorer. U can browse to the folder where u have copied the tone in your phone. Select it and it will be shown along with the system tones this point onwards.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
First Q goes to Q/A thread so next time care about it.

I have no idea for 1st Q

for second

Create folder on SD/Ext SD card like below mentined. I recommend on Ext SD as you may need not add again after factory reset.

Ext SD (or int)/media/audio/notifications and place media file (tones) in notifications folder, you will get those

sameways if you want to add ringtones it goes here

Ext(or int)sd card/media/audio/ringtones

place audio files in ringtones folder

[Captivate General] Jergling:
This is a mortality report for my Captivate.

At 6:40, I got off the bus walking towards my destination, a meeting with some other students. Nothing of note happened. When I got to the second floor at 6:45, I checked the time, noting that I was early for the 7:00 meeting time. When I reached the room I was headed for, no one was there, so I turned on the lights and waited.

When the first other student arrived about 5 minutes later, I pulled my phone out to check the time, and it no longer displayed anything. In fact, the internal OLED had been cracked, and only a few scattered pixels sparkled behind the glass. The screen protector had a nick in it, like it had been stabbed by the corner of something, but it had been safely tucked away, screen facing my leg, since the last time I pulled it out. Upon removal of the screen protector, I found no scars on the screen itself.

I've absolutely babied this phone since I got it two years ago. It's only ever dropped 3 feet onto thick carpet a year ago, had a screen protector since the first week of ownership, cleaned compulsively and carried like a Ming vase. It sucks to see it destroyed so randomly and outside my control.

My only thought is that I may have bumped it against the rivet next to my pocket when putting it away last, but that hardly seems like something that could do this much damage. I would have had to have taken a pretty big swing to do this kind of damage. Likewise, how could the OLED crack without the screen above it also cracking?

Ultimately, I'm kind of glad this thing died. I'm upset that it didn't get to retire properly, but at the same time it has caused me nothing but problems. It's a wonderful phone for developers and modders, but the design was just crap from the start. The faulty GPS unit, the poor power management with a tiny battery, the CPU that could barely handle the default OS despite being the fastest phone of its time, OTA software updates that never came. It's certainly been a bumpy ride, thanks for making it a bit more bearable, XDA. I'll probably see you on the GS3 forum pretty soon, I hear they fixed all those problems and more!
[Captivate General] BWolf56:
My only guess is that you bumped into a table, chair, etc. to get such damage done. Perhaps without noticing it :confused:

2 years is still pretty good though and while it had it's bad sides, I surely enjoyed mine to the fullest. I dunno how patient you're but the S4 is coming out probably sometime in June so if you can handle a cheap phones till then, it could be something to look into. Otherwise, I'll see you on the S3 side ;)
[Captivate General] HTCTerrorist:

In the initial rumours of PPC2003 - there was mention of better landscape support. Can anyone confirm this?

Also does anyone use any landscape software - any advice tips or suggestions.

Is there any software that works with the XDA that does not require a reset after every change?

I only really used it before with Excel Word + IE - any other apps that work well in Landscape?

I feel this is one of the most underdeveloped areas of the ppc.

Just wanting to try a new thread on something a little different. I'm loving this phone but always am open to new apps/mods! Maybe this can be a good thread for everyone to check out when they want some new ideas. For example; I'm currently running Jellybomb ver. 14 with Go's Next Launcher. Got me an MHL HDMI cable for about 17 bucks on Amazon which is about the best deal for a high quality cable. Anyway, got some SG Deadzone, N64 emulator, COD BOZ, and some others with the sixaxis controller app for a remote pretty much completely replacing my PS3(with exceptions of course). I've got the screen standby app working well with combo, which I feel is pretty sweet! Anyway, that's just some of what I've got going on but I'm curious to see what everyone's rollin' with! Some underrated apps, cool mods, just different stuff ya know? Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jtadak:

I've seen various incarnations of the flygrip. Not that I have used it, but I haven't found a need for it. I was using two hands with the Evo 4g, so the bigger phone hasn't changed how I use it.

FakeGPS is a nice app. Unfortunately, some a-hole wrote it and using with MLB, and MLB updated the app so you can't use it with it. The only thing, many apps are going away from GPS location checking and are checking IPs instead.
