Hey everyone,

I just got a gopro to help document a 6 month trip to Israel. I understand that I can move the files over to my tablet but do I have any options for video editing on this thing or am I just S.O.L. until I get back to my pc?

I've also got this thing dual bootin ubuntu from rabits but I'm a complete noob when it comes to that os but I'd be willing to dive in head first if I have options in that area. (I guess I'll ask in that thread as well).

Thanks!
[Microsoft Surface] pfroo40:
Since the last update it seems that when I try to wake my surface from sleep, often the first press of the power button doesn't wake it and I have to press it again. Doesn't seem to be based on how hard or where I press on the button, and I'm extremely careful with my electronics so it hasn't been dropped or damaged.

Anyone else having this problem?
[Microsoft Surface] netham45:
I've noticed this too, I just assumed it was my device being odd. I've actually thought it was dead and went to plug it in only to have it come on with like 70% battery.
[Microsoft Surface] gtsai:
reset it

go to settings->change PC settings->General->Refresh your PC without affecting your files.

i deleted the filed windows.old later and it is all good
[Microsoft Surface] mutunekk:
its the new firmware...

After the recent upgrade you have to a long press to turn it on...
[Microsoft Surface] Gotcha007:
Same thing happening for me too. Not all the time but some time.
[Microsoft Surface] Wischm0pp:
I noticed that it actually works on the first press, but takes some time to do. You just press it a second time before it can start the screen. May be caused by the new update though.

EDIT:

It takes about the same time to wake up like opening the touch/type cover. Maybe it got something to do with that?
[Microsoft Surface] Kraize:
1. Could be you're not pressing it firmly enough

2. Are you doing it right after you hibernate/sleep/shut it down? Because it takes a while if you do that.

3. Could be a faulty power button

4. I've had / noticed no problems in delay with the power button (could be it's such a insignificant thing to me that I don't seem to notice it)
[Microsoft Surface] DAVIZINHO:
I have de same problem since last update :(
[Microsoft Surface] Schrammi:
Same Problem here.
[Microsoft Surface] Pl2lNCE:
I've occasionally seen this on my surface pro too. I think it mainly happens when I close the device and it goes to sleep or whatever and I try to turn it on again pretty quickly. But when you think about it, this is the same way a regular notebook would respond because it is still shutting itself down while you are trying to start it back up. We have just been spoiled with phones and tablets and expect an instant response.

If it is happening from a cold boot, then there might be some type of mechanical issue with your surface, because I've never had that problem.
[Microsoft Surface] bountygiver:
it depends for me, if it is in sleep mode, clicking it once will wake it immediately, if it is hibernated, you need to hold it a little bit longer, it just behaves exactly like laptop's power button, if it is plugged, pressing once will turn it on too.
[Microsoft Surface] Trig0r:
I have noticed the power button issue since the last update, I've also noticed my keyboard seems to disconnect as well if I use the device flat..
[Microsoft Surface] Paschinski:
Same for me, but only if I didn't use it for some time.
[Microsoft Surface] oldswe:
This! Sometimes my keyboard goes wild and starts writing the last letter I typed in an endless loop (until I disconnect the touchtype keyboard :(
[Microsoft Surface] keva:
me too. to wake the device from deep sleep need a long press.

just a short press or use windows button is required if screen just turned black.

i called microsoft customer care and their devices did it too.

must be result of a recent patch
[Microsoft Surface] Trig0r:
Do they consider it to be a bug though?

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
I use a $30 "controller for tablets" that I got from GameStop. It works perfect in my Game Boy Advance and SNES emulator. In the emulator itself go to controls and then assign the buttons however you want. The one problem with modern versions of Android is that when a bluetooth controller is connected, you can no longer use the on-screen keyboard because the controller is your input device. You have to disconnect the controller (or just disable bluetooth) if you want to type stuff again. No that big a deal since you only really have it on while playing a game anyway

Looks like it is on sale now for $20:

Ps3 controller through sixaxis app is awesome and has more native game pad support from apps than any others I've seen... Some games even change all the buttons in game to reflect the ps3 controller... I like where it would normally say "tap here" and it will say "push X"

The bard's tale comes to mind

Plus it let's you set up touch emulation for games that don't have native game pad support

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dc_01:
Hi there, I currently observe a strange issue with a recompiled SystemUI.apk. Following the guidelines here in the forum, I changed the value of the background colour of the status bar from solid grey to semitransparent black. When I add this recompiled SystemUI.apk to a zip file containing the META-INF folder created by some advanced developer, I can flash the new SystemUI.apk and the statusbar will be semitransparent black after flash and reboot. So far, so good.

Now I tried a bit more and modified eybee1970 stock deodexed ROM. I deleted bloatware, updated Philz new kernel image and added my previously created SystemUI.apk with the semitransparent statusbar. Now the trouble appears. After flashing and rebooting, the statusbar is comepletly off, not visible, no chance to get it back.

In ssummary: My SystemUI.apk flashed to an already running stock deodexed ROM works fine, the same SystemUI.apk implemented in the same stock deodexed ROM zip file results in a non-appearing statusbar.

Can anybody advise me what I am doing wrong? I have attached the SystemUI.apk below if helpful for anyone.

Additional info: I used apktool command line based, JB version is the XXLSZ.

Thx

Hi,

In old times when we had Nokia symbian smartphones, I loved a minesweeper game in papaya java app. It is played between two players amd instead of saving ur self from mines here you have to find mines. The table has 17 mines in total. The player to find 9 mines first wins the game. I really miss that game. hopefully someone here can make a game like that which we can play online with another player.

if such game already exist then please do inform me.

also if you agree with the game idea or want something more in it, please post here.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
I'm sorry to sound like a NOOB and borderline desperate, but let's face it I am desperate (not a NOOB). I just picked up this Evo LTE and I really want to root it, but I have never been so overwhelmed and even scared to attempt to root a device like this before. I have been flashing ROM's for years and can usually figure out the quickest easiest method and be rooted within 2 hours. I have read forums and watched YouTube videos until my eyes bled, so I am sad to say I need some real advice from an Evo pro. Why is this device so confusing????

1. Easiest way to unlock the bootloader

2. Easiest way to Root

3. Do I need S-OFF if I am never going to flash a ROM?

4. I have a Mac (to make things more difficult), but I can use my daughters PC if need be.

I am on JB 4.1 with HBOOT 2.09.000 **** LOCKED **** Software Version 3.16.651 3

That's all I know for now.

I really just want to root for free wi-fi tether, I won't be flashing and ROM's or radios.

Thanks folks.
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
Hello,

I've been following this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1466436

When I came to the part where I had to fastboot the Chinese ROM my phone stopped working. I followed it straight out, and when I chose "Recovery" as the guide told me to choose, my phone only boots with a black lit screen and then turns black completely (no backlight), but the touch buttons still work and the phone vibrates.

The part it failed at was this:

The bolded text is what I have done, whatever comes after I never got a chance to do. Nothing I have tried so far have worked.

I'm very new to doing this kind of stuff and I thought I'd try the three musketeers ROM out, so far I haven't gotten this far. I need help in getting my phone to work again so I can continue the guide.

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums. Like I said, I'm new, and please move this to the correct area (If any mods around). Sorry for any troubles, and appreciate any help.

Thanks! <3
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
I've tried to get back to stock version, but it's not working.

My phone only boots to FASTBOOT and BOOTLOADER right now. It says on the top:

***RELOCKED***

When trying to do anything within the CMD it says:

Unlock bootloader and flash recovery. Måske device s-off then run the ruu.exe . do not relock bootloader.
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
I'm really sorry, but how should I do this? :/

It keeps telling me it failed and remote: signature failed.
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
I think I did it now.

I unlocked bootlader again.

I flashed the recovery "Clockwork" OK.

Now I have no idea what to do next? I tried putting in the Chinese ROM again and then hit "Recover", but I only come to black screen and nothing happens.

RUU.EXE doesn't work either, tried it, it says security/update fail or something and it just stops.
[HTC Sensation XL] anders3408:
From boot loader go to recovery.

From recovery mount SD card for PC/USB

Copy the ROM over to sdcard.

Unmount for USB/PC

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache and dalvik cache

Flash the ROM

Boot up the new ROM

S-off the device

Then install the ruu.exe.
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
Thank you for reply Anders,

The problem is I can't go into "recovery" on my phone. It just goes black and nothing happens.

I did both version of Clockwork recovery flash and it succeeded - no idea if it's related, but I just can't go into recovery.
[HTC Sensation XL] anders3408:
Try from fastboot and flash twrp.

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
Thank you,

TWRP worked much better.

I put rom on USB storage (i had to format it first to be able to open it, so it was completely empty and i just put file in there)

I did wipe/reset and cache/dalvik wipe.

I flashed the ROM succesfully.

I tried booting it up, the HTC logo comes up as well as the BEATS animation, then HTC logo with "Quietly Brilliant" beneath, and it stops there, nothing happens. Also, it starts making the startup HTC signal for less than a second, then it's quiet.

The ROM I put in storage and flashed with was "Total_Senseless_SXL-v4.1.1".

No idea if I did it right but I will try the Chinese ROM as well. As said, I'm new to this. :)

I get a problem when trying to flash the runnymede_ax918 .zip file.

Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.

And a red text "Failed".

According to the guide I have to install the Chinese ROM first which is what I'm trying to do here.

I flashed the boot.img first, entered TWRP, factory reset/wipe cache/dalvik

Find the Chinese .zip file (runnymede_ax918) and press install and this problem occurs.
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
That guide is old, you do not need any other chinese ROM's and suc, just unlock bootloader, flash recovery, root, S-OFF and after that you can have whatever you want on your phone. The thing with cbinese ROM and.such was before S-OFF was available.for the device...
[HTC Sensation XL] Phrebbie:
Well that's fun. Thanks for pointing that out though.

I can't stress it enough, I'm new to this, what should I do next? How do I root and how do I S-OFF? Guides?

Sorry for troubles.
[HTC Sensation XL] anders3408:
Delete ROM from zip and put it over again. And ofc try and open the zip on the computer first. If you can't open it on computer download the ROM again.

BTW. That is just how I did it, since no one really knows what its so special in that ROM and no one knows for sure that it makes Amy difference at all when using it or not, you can do as lexmazter wrote and don't use it.

The reason for me to flash that ROM is that I had read in here that when that ROM has been flashed hard brick was almost impossible with some common sense :)

No matter what, if you delete or has wrong vold.fstab and formats the sdcard from PC you only luck will be jtag.
[HTC Sensation XL] Lexmazter:
From what i know, that Chinese ROM was supposed to have unsecured boot, don't know how that helps and i don't get the ideea behind it anyways, so the right way to do it is to Unlock Bootloader -> Flash Recovery -> Root -> S-OFF -> Free to try whatever custom ROM out there you want, hard bricking is pretty hard even without common sense, i personally tried to do it and i failed, i think you need to know how to brick it in order to brick it, but to avoid that, make sure you do things the right way, read things before you try and so on.
[HTC Sensation XL] anders3408:
a simple way to do a hard brick:

flash a rom with only has the vold.fstab for hboot 1.25 and device is 1.28 , then mount sdcard for pc and format sdcard (pc says you need to do it before it can read the sdcard) - the result = BRICKED

What is a "bad flash"?

When installing I have wiped everything twice, and even wiped cache and datsik after install.

Is there not a way to get into system files and replace what is broken?

Just a shot in the dark, I am no android expert...

Thanks again

Replacing system files through device never recommend unless you know what your doing that's just method for bricking

(Was: Help me... Help me... Help me... Anyone help me !!!)

Hi all!

I stuck in WM2003PE v. 4.00.10. Since I have been updated to it, my XDA cannot use phone function. Cannot receive calls and while I make a call... appear a popup menu from signal: "The operation failed". I so sad, I don't know what to do now :( :cry: :x . Anyone help me ???

My XDA is:

Wallaby Bootloader: 5.17

ROM version: 4.00.10 (I feel a vindictive hatred for it :x :x :x )

Radio Stack: 4.21

I'm from ASIA

As you known I can not downgrade from this ROM version by exe file.

I can not downgrade from this ROM version by SD card because my Bootloader is 5.17

XDAtools is a new tool. Can I use it to downgrade my XDA? Tell me method by detail, please (sorry, I don't want to sad again).

Thank for all

:cry: :cry: :cry:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jta:
You CAN downgrade to say, 3.17 (Thats my TMobile version) if you have the nk.nbf file and use the XDA Tools.

You have to do it via the Wallaby Boot loader method... by placing the ROM on an SD card (via XDA Tools). To do this, I think that you need an SD card reader, as XDA Tools does not seem to do it via the phone...

There are instructions on how to do this as well as

A BIG WARNING about 5.17 boot loader.

I did it on my TMobile phone, with Bootloader 5.15.

So, do NOT follow the instructions I have stated here, read on this site and in the forum about how to flash your rom via the SD CARD Method.

That should do it for you..

BTW, when you write the ROM to the SD CArd, it WILL erase the SDCard data, so save off your stuff before you do this.

Thank jta

But, How do I have to downgrade my Bootloader from 5.17 to 5.15?

I tried XDAtools but no success

Anyone idea?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] beeheij:
Hi VHS,

My XDA had bootloader 5.17 like yours, and I was stuck with T-Mo 4.00.10 also. I was able to correct the situation though, by doing the following:

I changed the bootloader with XDAtools from Jeff (it has 5.15 included), by running the “Fix broken bootloader” part of the program.

Then, I used SDcard/bootloader method to go back to 4.00.05, and successful. I knew I could use XDAtools also for doing this, but I preferred the SDcard/bootloader’s way then. Mind you that, using SDcard/bootloader’s way was very easy after you downgrade from 5.17 to 5.15. Since then, I could flash whichever rom I want, but not 4.00.10.

If you want to do the same, please read as much for the detail from the various forum here and carefully.

I hope this helps.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] VHS:
Hi beeheij!

Can you tell me the way in order to downgrade my bootloader from 5.17 to 5.15 by detail? I tried a lot of time but no success. I don't know why. And you tell me go back v.4.00.05 by SD Card.

I'm grateful to you very much

Has it occured to you that

"Help me... Help me... Help me... Anyone help me !!!"

is a really, really, really bad subject line ? I changed it to something which may get many more people to take a look and possibly help you...

If you can still use ActiveSync, you could try to use Jeff's version of the XDAtools to downdgrade the bootloader to 5.15, and work your way out from there...
