[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slind:
Mine decides not to respond from time to time. No screen protector. Working fine for several ours. But sometimes, I have to push the back button really decisively. It annoys me like hell.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gavinfabl:
Had issues with home button, but after fitting HTC screen protector (which is crap). Going to remove protector.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dead Cell:
Me and my mate have the same issues, the capacitive buttons are incredibly difficult to hit at times and it's super annoying.

My home button also stops responding at times and I have to turn the screen off and then on again.

I've just taken off the HTC screen protector and it now seems to work much better.

I still think the capacitive area for both buttons are too small.

We're going to cut the bottom off the screen protector so that the screen is still protected leaving the capacitive buttons exposed. Not ideal but I doubt htc can do anything to fix this.
[Nokia Lumia 800] PeterNorman:
Hello!

I've really messed up my Lumia 710. It starts up but only gets as far as showing the Nokia logo for a second, then goes black, vibrates for a second and then goes off. I can't power it on after that t reproduce that failed startup without removing the battery first.

However, with it connected to my Mac via USB, I can see (via Terminal, not Finder) the nine partitions that make up the internal storage . Would writing the original contents of each partition back to the device restore it to a working state?

I have hopes that I can restore it if anyone knows where I can download images for each of the nine partitions - though perhaps I don't need the ninth if its possible to download that using the Nokia Care Suite.

Does anyone know of a source for these downloads? Or do any kind forum members have them laying around? I'd be happy to provide a place to upload them if it makes things easier.

I've read through many MANY threads on this forum in an effort to piece together a winning method but have had zero luck. I've written mods and official firmwares via Linux since it stopped being recognized by Nokia Care Suite. I'm not sure, but I think the problem arose while using Linux to recover from a ROM update that went bad, but my memories are all such a blur that I can't be sure. However, given that I can see the internal partitions and the device powers on (however briefly), it seems that recovery is possible.

Of course, if this is a fools errand, please advise. Maybe its bricked and therefore beyond hope.

It doesn't matter if the process is laborious and technical; I'm comfortable at the command prompt (of both Unix and Windows) and am by no means a newb, though getting myself into this situation in the first place probably puts paid to that claim. Ha!

Many thanks!

[Xperia Z General] libusta:
I don't know if this had been posted, but if you own the Xperia Z charging dock you can enable landscape home screen rotation

turn off the phone and then dock the phone (in off mode).

After the charging icon appears, just power up the phone while its in the dock. Once the phone is powered up, just remove it from the dock and you should be able to rotate the home screen.
[Xperia Z General] Aman27deep:
But, what's the point?
[Xperia Z General] libusta:
different strokes for different folks you know...

I like to use the phone in landscape on my desk without the dock and if you're in an app that is in landscape, e.g. a movie, you don't have to flip the screen back to portrait when you have to goto the home screen.
[Xperia Z General] abd_alazeez2002:

Or just use Rotation Control from the play store ...
[Xperia Z General] mcc666:

Is there a way to fool the phone into thinking it's docked I much prefer landscape

[Xperia Z General] iDroid8:
I can already do this permanently with an app in the drop down notification menu, I can select landscape and it'll force landscape for everything but I get a native result. Works for everything except for portrait apps, and vice versa. This works on the lockscreen too.

anyone know how, or if it is possible to trap the green 'call' button on the xda ii. I can trap the camera, voice recorder and top 2 buttons, but i need to trap the call button

Thanks

Pete
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
use GetAsyncKeyState
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] petevick:
Hi,

tried trapping it in a timer with getasynckeystate , but only seem to pick up the 'd' pad, not any of the other keys.

Using registerhotkey for the other 4 which works fine, just not for the call button

Thanks

Pete
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] HighFlyer:
Could you please let me know how you could trap the camera and the two top buttons.

Could you also trap the Red button ?

I will give it a go.

Please let me know if you could find a way to control the Green and Red Buttons.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
the green+red keys are already registered to the cprog.exe phone app.

you can grab them, by killing cprog.exe and then registering them.

this will prevent the original phone app from starting up.

( it is automatically restarted every minute orso, by shell32.exe )
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] petevick:
Hi,

thanks for that - but using PHM task manager I am unable to stop the process from running.

I will take the 'o2active' from the startup and generally poke around to see if i can get it to stop

Thanks

Pete
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
I mean you should stop it from your own program, using 'TerminateProcess'

see http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html itsutils.cpp

for how to use TerminateProcess
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] petevick:
Hi,

thanks - pkill does terminate the process - I thought PHM task manager would work using 'end process' but it does not.

Right - when I kill it, I then start 'button finder' to trap the hardware buttons, but as soon as I hit the green button, cprog relaunches

Thanks for your help

Pete
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
you should program it your self:

#define VK_ANSWER	0x72
#define VK_HANGUP	0x73
TerminateProcess(...); // kill cprog.exe
RegisterHotKey(..., 1, 0, VK_ANSWER); // steal hotkey
RegisterHotKey(..., 1, 0, VK_HANGUP); // steal hotkey
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] johnEllisDM:
Isn't there some win32 way to "steal" messages from another application? If you can do that, you could steal the WM_HOTKEY message from the phone app, that way, you wouldn't have to kill it. I am not sure if killing it would cause you to miss calls or not.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] danmanmayer:
Has anyone posted a clear solution

I have been searching all over the net for a clear solution on hhow to trap these hardware keys and I just can't find anything. Does anyone have a nice clear solution yet?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mamaich:
Re: Has anyone posted a clear solution

I've seen several games that intercept "call" and "hang" buttons using GAPI. I have not tested this myself, but you can try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] peterfoot:
You can unregister and register the buttons to your own app without killing the phone process, using the same functions as the code pete posted:-

UnregisterFunc1(KeyModifiers.None, CType(KeysHardware.Answer, Integer))

RegisterHotKey(hWnd, CType(KeysHardware.Answer, Integer), KeyModifiers.None, CType(KeysHardware.Answer, Integer))

UnregisterFunc1(KeyModifiers.None, CType(KeysHardware.Hangup, Integer))

RegisterHotKey(hWnd, CType(KeysHardware.Hangup, Integer), KeyModifiers.None, CType(KeysHardware.Hangup, Integer))

Where KeysHardware.Answer = &H72 and KeysHardware.Hangup = &h73

The difference between these two keys and the other hardware keys is they are not sent with the Windows key modifier.

Still A Little Stuck/Confused

So I should format my SD card

Then use Win32DiskImage and the following .img file on my SD card:

NookHDplus-Hybrid-SD-rev0-(02.17.13).img​

After the tablet boots and the menu appears I should take out the SD card and copy the following files to the CM10SDCard Partition:

cm-10.1-20130107-UNOFFICIAL-ovation.zip

gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

NookHDplus-Hybrid-SD-CM-ROM-Converter-rev2-(03.16.13).zip
​

Insert back into the tablet.

Then install from zip the following files in the following order:

cm-10.1-20130107-UNOFFICIAL-ovation.zip

gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

NookHDplus-Hybrid-SD-CM-ROM-Converter-rev2-(03.16.13).zip​

Following installation of the above three zip's, reboot and all should be good?

No other steps or files needed?

I've followed exactly the above and now after reboot the NookHD+ tablet remains at the Cyanoboot screen and doesn't progress.

Again, many thanks for all your help and assistance.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You don't quite have it right. I don't know how you are copying the zips to CM10SDCARD with Windows and the card in the PC.

Download those three CM10.1, gapps and converter zips using stock and put on internal memory. (And you should be using gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip).

Put the SD in the PC and format with SDFormatter (free on web) using the full format option. This will assure you get it totally wiped.

Burn the image to the card.

Insert the card in the nook and boot. Let it go through its thing making partitions and rebooting, ending up in CWM. Then flash those three files from internal memory.

Then reboot again and it should boot to CM10.1. Register gapps and you should be ok.

The key above is doing a full format with SDFormatter first to get rid of the prior installation.

[Nexus 7 General] Mikeonic:
Got Dirty RootBox onto my Device and everything was working fine. Now, The battery drains regardless...its been on the charger for 15 hours and is stuck from 50-53%.

No Idea what to do. Ive flashed it again. Tried different kernels. tried different ROMS..NOTHING!
[Nexus 7 General] bftb0:
A million-lines-of-source-code kernel is not required to charge a battery.

Take the software out of the equation by turning your device completely off, and charging it that way.

If it doesn't charge at a decent rate with no software running at all, then it would seem that hardware is the trouble.

And you get vastly different results between charge rates for "completely off" vs. "on but sleeping", then "software" - including user-installed apps - could be the trouble. Agreed?

FWIW, my new-ish stock N7 (grouper) charges from 0% to 100% in about 150 minutes (2.5 hrs) - whether it is turned completely off, or if it is in a deep sleep - just about an identical charging rate in the two situation. But then, my tablet seems to sleep pretty well. This is using the OEM 2A charger and the OEM USB cable - not aftermarket or third-party chargers or third-party data cables.

That works out to about 0.667 percent per minute... so, in 30 minutes on the OEM, 2A wall charger - with the tablet turned off, that should be about 20%.

So charge it with the tablet completely off for 30 minutes, and then turn it back on and have a look-see. If it is not considerably higher that 50-53%, then something is wrong, and that something is probably not software.

I am using straight talk on it and cant seem to get MMS to work, but it looks like Virtuous rom works with straight talk MMS. I am really not sure where I need to pick up on one of these guides just to flash a rom. Is that all I need to do to get it switched over? Sorry if these questions are easy/noob I really would rather just not brick this phone =)
[HTC Droid DNA] 123421342:
Look in the general section and the original development sections for guides and pretty much any phone forum for guides. They will do a better job of explaining than me. You cant have a custom kernel on viper 1.2 and it for sure either has CWM or TWRP.
[HTC Droid DNA] -DroidIsDNA-:
If you are s on, you have to download the zip of the Rom or kernel you want. Next, download flash gui on the market. Select the Rom or zip and it will flash the boot image. On a kernel, extract the modules and flash in recovery. For Roms, flash the zip after you flash the boot.img. try all that out, then look in the original development section for rooting and s-off. Hope this helps!

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

Download the "tweakker" app from the market as well. It solves many mms issues across roms.

Alright, I have a few additional questions then I guess, I have the Virtuous rom downloading, as well as the flash gui app. You say flash the zip after i flash the boot.img. I'm not sure exactly what you mean when you say that? Do I need to download an additional file or will the boot.img file show up in fastboot after I flash it with the gui app? Am I correct in that I should just be able to flash the virtuous rom without needing to flash a kernel also?
[HTC Droid DNA] 123421342:
It probably comes with a stock kernel and you can flash your own if its NOT based on 2.04.

He was talking about the rom, not your phone. If the rom us based off 2.04, such as viper, you can't flash a custom kernel.
