[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nostard19:
Hi I was searching for Xperia gx and Xperia t launchers and thought maybe if we can share all the available Sony launchers here. And also the mods for Sony launchers as well.

Can anyone pls pls tell me which version of Sony launcher has changeable dock background? I remember using this feature in some Rom but now all Rom are based off on new Xperia z launcher. I have used the jb launcher from Xperia z and I find it a bit laggy after few days of use. The stock Xperia s launcher is good but I can't delete unused screens here.
[General Questions and Answers] Slovedon:
Hopefully this is fixable, but I can't seem to get my Note 2 to boot. Its unlocked and running Jelly Bean's ROM. This morning my phone was dead, so I charged it for 10 minutes and powered it on. During the "Jelly Bean ROM" boot screen, the screen froze and then slowly faded out (horizontal lines of pixels gradually turned off over the period of a minute, until it was black).

Now I can't get it to turn on, even after trying a hard reset (by holding the power button for 15+ seconds), recovery mode (holding volume up+power+home), download mode (vol down+power+home) and all of these after removing and resetting the battery. Any ideas on what would cause this or how to fix it?

I'd bring it in to Verizon, but I think custom ROMs void the warranty...? Also, I haven't installed/uninstalled anything lately. This was just out of the blue.

(i tried searching for similar threads... this was the only thing i can find sorta close)

i have the 16GB version, and i flashed CM10.1 M2 yesterday. i performed a wipe data so that i could start from fresh.

now i'm trying to restore app settings one at a time. the first one i tried to do was Nova Launcher.

i had connected my tablet to my computer, and copied over my backup to the following:

/Android/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/

now when i go to Nova Launcher restore, it can't find it. it is looking for the backup in the following path:

/sdcard/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/

so boot up Astro File Manager, and i found the following folders at the root level:

/sdcard/

/storage/emulated/0/

/storage/emulated/legacy/

/storage/sdcard0/

/storage/usbdisk/ (empty)

/usbdisk/ (empty)

the first 4 folders mentioned here all display the same files as if i was viewing them from my computer.

if i navigate to /Android/data/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/backup/ from any of these 4 folders, i'll see my Nova backup file.

i have no idea why Nova Launcher can't see my backup file to restore.

in a related note, i made a CWM nandroid. but when i go to /clockworkmod/ nothing is there except 2 hidden files (nomedia and settings). even tho from within CWM, it sees the backup.

-SOLVED-

in short, don't use Astro File Manager. i started to use ES File Explorer.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Groid:
Look in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup for your backups.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhomiec:
when i go to the root level- /data/ this folder is empty.

(using Astro File Manager)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Groid:
In Root Explorer or ES File Explorer you can navigate to /data/media/clockworkmod/backup. I don't know why Astro is not showing it, but I just checked in Astro and can't see it either. Astro is no longer listed as having root access after the latest updates. I can't add it in SuperSU. I think that's the problem for Astro.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhomiec:
yes! problem solved.

i didn't know Astro couldn't navigate to those folders anymore. stopped using that now.

on to ES File Explorer.

found where to put my Nova backups, and i found the CWM backups too.

I flashed back to the stock 4.1.1 with Sense 4+ to my HTC One S and when I was about to change my ringtone I had 3 options to open the ringtone, I selected the first one (forgot the option) and the thing crashed and told me it would report the crash to HTC. I have restarted the phone a few times since and still cannot access the ringtone changer from 'Settings/Sound/Phone ringtone' Does anyone know how to change the program that is opening the ringtone?
[HTC One S] nate51:
Solved my own problem, had 'Sound Set' disabled in my Apps and that's the program I needed to select ringtones.

I've tried to change my APN's. I've used both the Cingular one that was default, and the AT&T HPSA+ one that was posted on here. At first things were ok, but now Picture messages won't send. My data still works, but it's slow. I used to use Handcent and it was fine, then I went to ChompSMS when Handcent stopped sending mms, and now Chomp doesn't either.

Any help anyone? I've tried searching but I've already used the APN settings I found on the forum.

Apparently it was ChompSMS. I deleted it at MMS messages are now working properly.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogUK:
Hi,

I have one of these chinavasion Angel_-_9.7_Inch_HD_Bluetooth_Dual_Core_1.5GHz_16GB_8000mAh (spec attached)

I have used 'romdump' and created boot.img, recovery.img and system.tar which I now have on my laptop. Since I switched it on this morning, the tablet is stuck in recovery mode, android with red triangle, I have used the power/vol+ to go into the menu and have cleared both data & cache and also factory reset. However, rebooting just takes me back to the dead android with the triangle.

So, is there anyway to put back the images I have, or can anyone suggest a suitable ROM (was JB 4.1.1) I can flash on to the tablet. I have (or did have adb working) with a root shell.

Thanks

Hi friend i have this tablet too.

I did a mistake and flash a wrong firmware.

Seller only gives to me this name, no firmware or nothing.

I have a locked tablet like you, because they don't release any firmware.

company doesn't releases nothing too.

I have a Jabra freespeak BT250 on order but from the threads it doesn't seem like its worth the hassle (problems maintaining the connection, lost calls etc) . Any recommendations for a BT headset that works flawlessly with XDA II. :?:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] JoseF:
The problem in this case is not the headset :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
Even though its not perfect, don't despair.

Bluetooth is worth it - and I'm sure they'll get a patch out soon.

That is one reason everyone if beefing about it here - hoping O2 and T-Mobile are listening. :wink:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] stryker:
Yes, I bought a jabra 200 with my XDA-II.... ok so when ever the headset is turned off or most of the time when it is recharged you have to rebind the BT connection.... so what I say, I love it and cant be without it.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] digger:
I'm using the Plantronics M3000 which works very well (no binding problems). The only functionality that doesn't work (and I guess the PPC doesn't implement it) is press the call button twice to redial the last number. Aside from this it picks up calls/ends calls perfectly, has 8 hours of talktime and only cost £45.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Cyberb0b:

After i dial the number and it connects, I press the button on the headset but it wont transfer the call. I have the headset profile enabled in the today screen. Has anyone gotten both incoming and outgoing calls to work with the BT200?

Oh well. Flawed wireless is better than wired anyday for me :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
Don't press the button on the headset when making the outgoing call. If you use the green button, it should show something like "headset in use - press here to select phone" in a popup (I have the German version, so I don't know the exact english text it shows).

You should then hear the voice over the headset.

If you press the button on the headset it basically terminates the call.

Maybe we can have it with the Handsfree Profile Patch :wink: ...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] vetie:
Ok....Thats strange....I was going to try what tbd had suggested but now it just works without touching anything!!! Now whenever I initiate a call it AUTOMATICALLY sends it to he headset without me touching the green button or the headset. It also transfers it very fast. I don't know why it didn't work yesterday but it does now. :D
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] ajb_111:

and hoping for the best. :?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] killercheung:
GOOD choice!

I am using it now, and it is REALLY GREAT!

The speaker quality is the best , the mic quality is not very good in noisy / windy environment (same as almost all bluetooth headset), because it is not directly pointing to your mouth, but works perfectly in a quiet environment.

I love it very very much!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] newworld666:
Just received my QTEK 2020 and Cellink BT Headset (BTHS6023) 9 grammes only.

Working perfectly I can answer to an incoming call by pressing the button on the headset.

When dialing a number automatically the headset goes on to be able to speak throw the headset without pressing a any button on the headset.

To hang on any call just press 2 seconds the headset button.and the line is cut.

GPRS with french orange is OK. I have not tested a VPN, but with my ancient IPAQ 3870+GPRS jackett I could manage to do it.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Baker:
I also have the Plantronics M3000, and guys I have to say something it’s better than my Jabra BT 200, the voice quality is really excellent. Concerning the bonding issue; well if I turn the M3000 off I have to create a new bonding all over (same case wt Jabra), so I am a little surprised how it works for you? :roll:

It would have been great if the redial feature would work :lol: , but as it seems it’s a problem with the Imate rather the headset.

Has to be Jabra BT 250

the Jabra Freespeak 250 works perfectly.

NO PROBLEMS what so ever.

£79.99 from O2

expensive but perfect.

I have had no problems while using it. None.

Hands free profile would be good on the XDA2 tho as the 250 is compatible.

Which Bluetooth HeadSet to use

I am proud to announce my first entry in this awsome Forum

I just got the XDAII Today and am am using a BlueTrek G2 Headset i bought last week in Poland. It is running great, no bounding Problems, excellent speaker quality and people are able to understand me without any problems.

The optic of the device is the best I have seen so far and its very comfy to wear.

In my opinion its definitly worth buying!

I have a Jabra 200 that I was originally using with the dongle on my xdaI. Been using it on my xdaII since October and have never had any bonding problems that are mentioned here so often. Just press the button on the headset to answer calls - leave xda in pocket and call automatically discounts when the other caller clears. Dial a number on the handset and the Jabra turns on automatically. I would definately recommend a BT headset to anyone.

BT Headsets on iMate / XDA II

Hi All,

PLEASE - bear in mind with the Sony Ericsson headsets that newer models NO LONGER WORK with the XDA II / iMate. There's been firmware changes on these and Jabra 200 headsets that now move away from the proper BT profile specification!!!

So... If one Jabra 200 or Sony Ericsson HBH65 works, then the next one probably won't!

Often the best bet is to stick with a "full spec" ie. generic solution and avoid the Sony Ericsson and Nokia headsets that have proprietary "tweaks" to suit their respective handsets...

The Jabra 250 is meant to be an improvement over the old 200 problems - But only time and testing will tell here.

We've tested dozens of the generic variety (and have landed on the Bluetake GII 400 as the best of the lot we tested).... and most of these work well..

Most of the Plantronics headsets work too.

HBH65 DOES NOT WORK!!!!!

McCanic - I'm afraid that the current revisions of HBH65 do NOT work with the iMate / XDA II.

There's no solution but to return it at this stage.

Anyone giving a "blanket" thumbs up for the HBH65 should be hung-drawn and quartered! Models produced before about October last year worked fine. Any of the current stock don't.

All of the current Nokia headsets also have a time-out bug... So! You're left with the generics.

SE HBH-65

I just got my HBH-60 replaced with a new HBH-65 and it works albeit a few pecularities. That is I must switch the HBH-65 before activating the bluetooth on my XDAII. Secondly, if I end a call on my XDAII and not using the button on my bluetooth headset, I cannot receive subsequent calls on my bluetooth headset. Apart from this, no problems.

Can you tell me whether the Jabra or Plantronics sounds better?

Logitech Headset

I have now had the Logitech headset for about 10 days, and have not encountered any problems so far, it works a treat, and i have not had te re-bond once.

The only annoying thing i have encountered is that if i want to sync with my PC (via bluetooth) i have to disable bluetooth, then enable it, not really a problem though, and only takes a few seconds.

Wearing the headset does take a bit of getting used to.

The boom seems pretty robust to me, and there was no reviews at the URL you posted.

I dont see how Logitech can refuse to repair any item if it is a manufacturing fault or a design fault, if on the other hand it is obvious that the boom had been broken off in an accident, you can't really blame Logitech for refusing to cover this under warranty.

BlueTrek G2 or Jabra BT-250??

I posted this in another thread.. I thought to include it here and see what replies i get.

-----------------------

I have been reading a lot of reviews about bluetooth headsets for XDA 2 online and I have got it down to two. Of course, I want only one, so if any of you could throw in your two cents to help me decide which one.

1. BlueTrek G2 (http://www.iseattlecommerce.com/mer...e=bluepear&Product_Code=G2.1&Category_Code=G2)

2. Jabra BT250 (http://www.buy.com/retail/product_j...rm=90116764&Type=PE&Category=Elec&dcaid=15891)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] xda2user:
Rough usage may indeed snap the boom off, and you are right, it doesn't have any play in it, but it can be rotated 360 degrees without any problems.

If it is stored / used correctly i dont see how it can sustain any damage, and the boom should be OK.

Time will tell, but if the boom does fall off, then i will be raising merry hell about it (if Logitech adopt the attitude you say they do) , and would speak to consumer protection (UK) about the product not being fit for the purpose that it was sold for, and would suggest that anyone else living in the UK do this if Logitech refuse to repair under waranty any manufacturing fault.
