Hi i need answers. i have a totally stock htc one x on uk 3mobile. i tried to download the new jellybean update but now my phone wont work. will only go to the htc quietly brilliant screen, if i switch it off it turns straight back on again. i sent it off for a fix under warranty but was told it had water damage so they would not fix it. the handset is one month old and has been knowhere near water so i assume they just dont want to replace for free. any help as to what i can do to fix it myself?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Can you boot to bootloader?

Hold both volume down and power buttons and don't release them until you're in a screen with green android figures in the bottom.

Then select factory reset, if it won't work then we run a RUU.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] varunit:
Hi, all. I own xperia Neo V, recently rooted. I use MX player for video playback. There seems to be a lag at random intervals during video playback, especially playing mkv files. During the lag, audio continues to play while video displays as a still picture and then delayed video gets played back at a very fast pace. Then video playback continues fine and then lags with similar issue at another random interval. The lag happens for 5-8 seconds . I would like to know if any workaround for this problem? Does anyone face similar issue?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dywerd:
Hi! What is the resolution of the video? Because the Neo and Neo V screen resolution is only 720p and it won"t play full hd videos, but 720p videos is working well. I have Xperia Neo and it's not playing the full hd vids with any player! The sound goes as it should, bat the screen freezes. Reduce the video size and it will work...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] varunit:
The resolution is 576*432

I tried BSplayer, QQplayer too. all lag at random intervals
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dywerd:
I use Moboplayer (the one with a "green triangle on a grey circle" icon), and it plays everything, except full hd vids. The max reslution is 1280x720, but even Quickpic plays too.:confused: So i dunno what the problem is... What rom are you using and kernel? Maybe you run out of free memory during playback... Have you download the codec for MX player? When I first install it, it's need the MX Player Kodek (ARMv7 NEON)...

But now I probe one video (1280x720) and Quickpic plays it, I'm able to scrolling too...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] varunit:
I tried Mobo before. One thing that I love about MX is that it's HW acceleration feature is excellent which boost your volume twice, and all other players including Mobo can't match this boost. That's the only reason stopping me to use other apps. Anyways, thanks for hinting Moboplayer, will try it out again. Regarding Quikcpic, I use it only to view my pictures, new used it to play any video.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alitech:
I personally think that this is a major milestone for any mobile phone yet, no one seems to be talking about it. Why is that?

Isn't this sort of stuff supposed to make waves in getting 802.11ac into mainstream use? These are the type of headlines that should be discussed to death and made a big deal out of yet it just had a little mention in the launch and not a lot of new stories about what draft it was and which routers today would be best suited etc etc.

Discuss please?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alitech:
Ok agreed, this is a monster on paper, but it will be suitably replaced next year with a 16 core device maybe. or better yet, some sort of cloud service driven by LTE network speeds with hundreds of supercomputers working in tandem, only to fall back on local CPU power if the cloud is not available or loss of signal (I love speculating).

BUT !!! and its a big BUT!, 802.11ac will be here for a good few years, way past the Galaxy S4's shelf life.

This phone will drive the prices down for ac wifi routers and hotspots, however I dont think that this is the final version of 802.11ac which is why they are all hush hush about it?

I can't wait till April. The launching of the new Samsung Galaxy S4 is one of my most awaited event. This phone is taking us to the next level folks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TingTingin:
Pity your not good at it

8 cores are really 4 powerful cores and 4 battery saying cores that will be the way of the future not 16 cores lol

Well that makes sense

Nope people are stupid they didn't even mention the processor or even android in the announcement

S4 INFO
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Livebyte:
I think most of us doesn't have an AC router yet. But it's definitely futureproof with AC. My PS3 still uses Wireless G for god's sake.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alitech:
Are you saying that there will be no 16 core CPU's in the future? Its like Bill Gates saying back in the 80s that no one will ever need more than 8kb of RAM. If you are referring to the S4, yes, I know 4 cores for processing and the other 4 for battery saving lighter tasks. This however has not stopped Samsung marketing the device as an 8 core beast.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TingTingin:
Samsung haven't marketed it that way

we have

they simply didn't explain (they did at mwc though but not at launch) and allowed people to speculate

And I said there won't be 16 core phones next year I never said anything about the future

You did say future though, nothing about next year. Come on, scroll up, go on :)

Anyways, enough of that. Back to the subject.

Does anyone know which draft of 802.11ac the S4 has? IEEE have not yet finalized the standard yet. Is there a possibility that this ac chip that Samsung have sourced for the S4 may become redundant if IEEE change the AC specs?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alitech:
Only because they are bloody expensive to buy. What if the S4 can turn this around and make these affordable for all? With the launch of this device, maybe, just maybe, the following happens

1. Demand intensifies

2. Competition want to offer the same functionality and hardware (APPLE, HTC, NOKIA, HEAIWEEEEEEEEEE, LG)

3. Hype and buzz intensifies

4. News stories pop up all over the place faster than ever about the AC spec and how amazingly super fast it is

5. A lot of manufacturers trialing and testing AC routers and hardware

6. Prices become affordable as volume units start making their way worldwide

7. Price come down futher by retailers trying to outsell each other with deals / discounts / coupons / promotions

8. Eventually ISP's start giving these out for free to their ADSL and fibre customers

9. People begin to reap the benefits of up to 1.7GB speeds over wifi

10. The whole world forgets about 802.11n like it never existed

Wonder why this thread has made its way to the Q&A troubleshooting area?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiFivomFranMan:
To be honest 802.11ac in the first wave is going to be kind of pointless. In reality it is basically just 802.11n with wider channels. 802.11b ---> 802.11g are big changes. 802.11g ---> 802.11n are big changes. 802.11n ---> 802.11ac, not so much.

It doesn't say buy I am guessing it is going to be a 1x1:1 like the SIII. I would rather have a 2x2:2 802.11n that a 1x1 802.11ac

Here is how it works out.

SIII - 802.11n 1x1:1 at 40mhz = 150mbps

Nexus 10 - 802.11n 2x2:2 at 40mhz = 300mbps

S4 - 802.11n 1x1:1 at 80mhz=325mbps

the Nexus 10 has two antennas and radios compared to the SIII or S4. It should be able to hear and transmit better.

WiFi has a **** load of overhead so you normally get about half of your connection rate in real throughput. With that said I only get about 90mbps with iPerf when my Nexus 10 is connected at 300mbps. It is like the bus on the thing can't hang. Copying files from a server with ES file explorer is super slow.

I haven't played with an s4 but the bottleneck on the other devices isn't the wifi.

AC router

I currently own an AC router... Since I live in the UK and Broadband Speeds are just well totally b**l s**t, there's not really much of a point of ac on that basis N is more than capable of reaching speed of up to 300 mbps

Till broadband speeds dont catch up with the N there's not much really any point of ac

only time i think ac will actually benefit a user is particular when media streaming or wifi file-sharing and that also having the actual host connected via Ethernet or ac.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
So what? The majority of internet service providers in most countries don't even provide enough bandwidth to saturate 802.11g.

802.11n and 11ac are good for transferring huge files from a desktop to a laptop, but really, not of much use on a phone. g alone is sufficient to stream a 1080p H.264 stream.

I'm located in the USA and currently using a Netgear R6300 AC Dual-Band Router and can only get the S4 to connect at 802.11G @ 54Mbps. I see no options to change the band speeds to 2.4Ghz/5Ghz which 802.11AC runs on the 5Ghz band. Very disappointed on Wifi and feel Samsung made false advertising... I realize AC is technically [draft] but the S4 should atleast connect using 802.11N.

I have got WM2003 installed cooked in jeffs kitchen, and the sub menus it creates in the programs menu (misc, search and explore etc..) all have individual icons related to what they do, ie. the search and explore folder has an icon of a magnifying glass.

Is there any way to set an Icon for folders I create in the programs menu ? by editing the registry or anything like that ?

Hey guys, title says it all. To detail, basically I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus that is (or was) programmed to Page Plus. Talk and text worked fine, though data did not work. Well for some stupid reason, this morning I decided to try *228 for OTA programming. This is where it gets weird.

After OTA programming finishes, I notice I have a strong data connection. I place a test call and it works. The only thing is, it's a different phone number. See, I originally tried to port over a number from Google Voice to Page Plus and it didn't work, so I was assigned a new number. After doing the OTA programming, I now have that Google Voice number and I don't know how or why. I'm just waiting on phone calls on my old number from people I contract with, so it's pretty important I get back to my old number.

I have ETS and some other software needed for programming, I just don't know how to go about it. Do I need to change the IMEI? MIN? They're all showing up as "Unknown" in the About Phone section.

Thanks so much for the help guys!

[HTC One X] lrpvo:
Hi all!

Upon buying a second-hand HTC One X I knew there might be a wifi-issue. I didn't care much, as I needed the phone, but I'd like to have this solved anyway...

Upon reading up on the insane amount of forum posts made upon this issue (of which, most are outdated) I can't find the actual solution.

Just to make it clear:

With my old phone (LG O3D) I had a 2/3 bar in my bedroom. Currently this is 0 - it won't even find the network.

Downstairs in the kitchen I had a 2 bar - it now has one, scarcely.

I can't figure out wheter or not it's a hardware fault, but pressing my phone (gently) doens't seem to improve anything whatsoever...

What can/should I do?

Greetings,

and thanks in advance,

Laurens

Check your rom base.. if it's 3.18 then it maybe a software problem.. if it's 3.14 or less then chances are hardware issues.. if you don't want to go to a service center then there are some do it yourself repair videos.. search.. it's somewhere here in this forum..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kobe008:
Have had my GSIII for about 2 months now and I'm wondering if something is wrong with my gps. I have taken my phone and compared it to 2 other GSIII's using the app GPS Status & Toolbox. On my phone when the app is opened it says 'Looking for GPS Location' and will quite often never find anything. Sometimes it will lock on however. If I'm outside it locks on quicker but indoors it does not. On the other phones I compare it against they both lock on almost immediately.

The other weird thing about my phone is the compass in the GPS Status app. Mine never sits still it is always bouncing back and forth. The other 2 phones I compare against the compass locks on and never moves unless I move the phone.

Now when it comes to navigation my phone seems to work decent. The only places it does not take me directly to are houses it is usually off by about a block, but businesses it is spot on. I figured the maps app just doesnt have the exact house locations?

I am running stock 4.1.2 on Verizon. After reading many threads about gps problems I have already tried tightening the 10 screws under the back cover of my phone. I also did the whole clear cache and remove Maps updates and reinstall. Would this be enough to call Verizon and try to get a different phone while its still under the year warranty?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Evo450:
I have the same problem. Mine worked great for a few months and suddenly became very unreliable. I can be driving down the freeway at 70MPH and navigation will suddenly freak out and think I'm on some other side street and start giving me directions to get back to the freeway. It will do this constantly and never shut up and it will even show me driving in totally different directions down streets that are blocks away from where I actually am.

I tried the screw thing and cleared the cache and reinstalled the Maps updates but that did not help. The problem has recently become even worse. Sometimes it takes 15+ minutes to get a GPS lock while in my car and in my house where it used to work perfectly it won't lock at all.

Another problem I've had, while I don't know if it's related, is that Google Maps flickers when scrolling and randomly goes blank. Along with that, it will randomly scroll out into the middle of the Atlantic when I'm just trying to zoom in on a particular location near me.

Have you tried a factory reset? That's probably the last thing I'm going to try before going to Verizon and requesting a replacement though I really don't want to go through the hassle of setting everything up again just to do it yet again if I have to replace the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kobe008:
I have not tried a factory reset yet but I should probably give it a try. I posted this on another GS3 forum and a former Verizon support person recommended to not get a replacement from Verizon cause they send out real crappy ones they have laying around. He said to call Samsung and get the phone fixed that way so I will probably try that if the factory reset does not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbolton_98:
have read where removing battery door and tightening the body screws has fixed most gps problems. It seems that the contacts are very susceptible to the body getting loose. Daily vibration can cause them to slightly loosen and thus the problem. I would give it a try, it only a few seconds work.

Good Luck:)

See the Galaxy sIII shine via SynergyRom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Evo450:
I just tried the screw thing again. I think there is definitely something to that. Sitting here at my desk I could not get a GPS lock at all. After tightening the screws I get a lock within 1-2 seconds. Maybe I should get some Loctite to keep them from backing off? I'll have to drive around to see if it's really working but this is what fixed it before. The only thing now is the strange flickering/graphical glitches that I see when in maps/navigation.
