[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] TEKHD:
I have an I317 with triple sim card adapter and sold my T889... I have installed 100's of roms over time... (On many Note 2's of course) And I can say that the Note 2 TMobile roms are more stable and offer faster network connectivity plus they have wifi calling... (if using a TMobile sim it comes handy...)

That's the best in my opinion... In fact that's one of the best of all time... From many years here on XDA...

This is really unusual, as I haven't exposed my Note to water (closest call was when an lcd cleaning solution spilled on the back cover)

So I took my Note out of the case and I found a white spot. I scratch it off, nothing happens. But when I smell it, it smells (oddly) like perfume. I had to use a scouring pad to get it off the back cover, but now it's scratched up. Now this concerns me since when I smell the battery, speaker and S Pen slot under the back cover it still smells like the mold on the back cover. How do I clean this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayank Chandwani:

Use ammonia dilute to clean it, even it will take of the dirt from your phone's body and make it shiny as new

so my Evo Lte is pretty maxxed out without having s-off. But i can only get roms that are at least 500mb to work on my phone, anything else it just does a boot loop or stays at the htc start screen. what am i missing?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bobarune:
Are you flashing the boot img in fastboot before installing in recovery? Most sense roms are over 500mb and have the same kernel so it boots up fine without flashing the boot img before hand. Aosp roms will require you to flash the boot img before hand if you're s-on

How do I flash the boot img, I haven't messed with my phone in a while and can't remember for the life of me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Use fastboot flash boot boot.IMG, I believe. Or use flashimageGUI from the market. There are tutorials in the sticky threads
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
^This. You will need to put the boot.img in your ADB tools folder on your computer, put the phone in fastboot USB mode and use the command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' to flash the kernel to your phone. A better solution is to get S-off so you don't have to mess with flashing the kernel separately .
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JerryGNYC:
Agreed. Best thing to do is get S-OFF! :good: :good: :good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MFOsaka:
S-OFF is cake now. No reason NOT to do it. It will make all of this EASIER for you. Just up and do it.

You have two possible methods to do this: DirtyRacun or Facepalm. The latter can be done in five minutes.

From the thread I linked previously -

"You can also come by irc for support or just to say thanks: #FacePalm http://chat.andirc.net:8080/?channels=facepalm"

I know it can be scary, but you have to read the forum(s) and/or watch the video(s). Since you took the trouble to register on this site, don't rush and take the time to learn and understand by reading, reading, and more reading. :D It's not an overnight thing, but it does come eventually. It took me 6 months before I began to have a decent understanding of what I was doing with my first PC... :confused:

No offense, but we can't hold your hand as you cross the street. You have to take those first steps yourself. Read carefully, make notes that YOU will understand a day later... but you must take the responsibility for what happens to your phone.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QFT:
I just got a refurb Kindle. I'm told it's 1st Gen, I believe it was SW version 6.3.2

I installed FFF and TWRP 2.5.0.0 and downloaded a couple CM-10.1-x ROMs.

Booted to TWRP. Stupidly, didn't take a backup. Installed the ROM. First it installs the ZIP. Then:

"Checking for MD5 file...

Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.

Updating partition details..."

And then I have my Wipe Cache/Davilk, Home, and Reboot System options.

After selecting Reboot (or Wipe Cache/Davilk then reboot), I get the offset CGM boot animation... it just sits there forever.

I've tried a couple CM 10.1-x ROMs with no better success. I've also tried using the factory wipe option in TWRP before installing.

Any ideas out there? I can easily get into the TWRP interface again but haven't been able to fix this tablet.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jma9454:
someone else will have come along and make sure that what I say is true, but I think you need to turn off the "check for md5" when you flash it. first off, though, you need to wipe everything but your external storage or sd card, and also you need a Gapps package to install after the ROM.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QFT:
Thanks guys, it worked now.

Although I had been wiping those categories with the exception of my first attempt, I think the first thing I'd done after reading online was enable a different formatting option under "settings" in TWRP. I think that was causing a problem, despite what I'd read online.

So to clarify: the procedure that worked for me is to keep that option UNCHECKED and do the wipes before the install. Thanks for the help.

Yet another case of someone who read the wrong instructions or failed to follow properly!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] electricpete1:
My two year contract will be up in awhile (ok... 6 months... I’m getting started early).

We have 5 Infuses on an AT&T contract, with unlimited talk/text + 200MB data/mo for total $220/mo.

I'm looking to keep the costs low.

The Infuses are doing great, I’m thinking we’ll hold on to them as long as they keep working.

I’m wondering if others in similar situation have identified good options.

I am leaning towards monthly options... not wanting to get locked down in antoher contract.

Has anyone found a good reasonable plan (preferably monthly) for their Infuse after their 24 month sentence expired?

Tmobile has a great prepaid plan: $30 for 100 minutes, unlimited text, 5GB data.

We can work with the 100 minutes.... we actually don't talk a lot.. we can keep the minutes down by using Google Voice for some of the calls ... keep a prepaid balance which allows extra minutes at the reasonable rate of 10 cents per minute. But Infuse doesn’t have that 1700Mhz band by Tmobile, which means we might be stuck on “Edge” data speeds at least until Tmobile “refarms” with the 1900Mhz. Anyone switched to Tmobile?

Straight Talk no longer provides AT&T SIM cards... some weird leverage that AT&T used on them. Anyone got around this ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] psal217050:
A friend of mine is in a similar situation. He mentioned Cellular One has simm chip compatible with ATT and they were cheap.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Steve_O_1971:
I had no idea straight talk no longer did ATT sim cards. that is what I am using, and was going to suggest. They do offer tmobile cards though. $50 month unlimited everything.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markawashington:
I just rooted my old T-Mob tablet with the one click root method .... there is no custom recovery yet ... can I put ......[ROM][10-04-2013][AOSPA 4.2.2][GSM] ParanoidAndroid 3.15 or any AOKP jelly bean on it ? and how?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
you can, but you probably want to forget about those rooting(which makes no difference) and putting custom recovery on it.

That path is fraught with failures.

The reason is, recovery is part of a kernel in this tab. If you find a custom kernel that has custom recovery, likely it is not a suitable kernel for your android.

Just follow my signature to use Overcome method.

Follow the guide from page 7 or 8 onward.

It guides you on flashing a Samsung GB stock rom that works with overcome kernel.

From there you can use overcome's CWM recovery and flash the Paranoid ROM.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markawashington:
Okay so stock rom with an overcome kernal/recovery and from there I can go into the recovery like any other CWM and flash the paranoid rom? Btw my tab is still in Froyo lol
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Yes.

And the guides will help you move to GB (Gingerbread) first.

Hey guys,

I have tried searching around to see if anyone else is experiencing any lag while typing using Kingston Office but couldnt find anything helpful. So basically when I am using the app in class for notes when I type it lags for a few seconds before the sentence appears. I am running CROM and everything works great and is really fast so Im confused on why this app is doing this. Anyone else having this problem or does anyone have anything that I might try to fix this or should I just run another app for notetaking?

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigerDNA:
I updated TWRP to 2.5. After taht I needed to restore because I didn't care for the ROM I just flashed. TWRP would not "see" my ext SD card so I copied my back up to my internal. I guess it got currupted or something be cause it said "Restore Successful" but right under that it said "FAILED". So I was going to reboot and try to copy from ext SD card to internal once more to see if I could get it to work..... Now it flashed the boot screen and then goes black. I assume it's powering off but it's just black. I can't get into recovery OR download mode. I am kind of freaking out right now. I've soft bricked before but always been able to at least get into download mode..

PLEASE Help. Was running P.A.Cman Rom, updated TWRP to 5.0, tried to restore Du@lNote. Now dead
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigerDNA:
Well this is B.S. I downloaded the Note2 Toolkit again and guess what, Toolkit says the phone was powered on so I flashed TWRP 2.4.4 and now it boots in Recovery!! (I'm donating to ToolKit AGAIN, It's saved me like 5 times now)

So I guess the part of the restore that failed was the all important boot part? I'm now trying to restore from two backups, both of which keep failing. I guess at least I got into recovery so I can just download and flash a ROM and be done with it. If that doesn't work I'll be back
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TigerDNA:
No backups work. I did a clean install of Du@lNote and got it back running. Anyone have any idea what happened? Seems like TWRP made it die

Has anybody used a Bluetoooth heart rate monitor with this phone and Endomondo (or other fitness app)?

I was wondering if any of the Bluetooth 4.0 (smart) heart rate monitors would work with this phone (Zephyr HxM Smart or Polar H7)

Thanks
[HTC Droid DNA] jasoraso:
I'm using Runkeeper app and the "older" Polar heart rate monitor (non 4+). It is working very solidly for me. I have had it for about 1 month, still haven't changed the battery (I've ran about 10-15 hours with it so far).

I didn't have enough faith in BT4.0 to try the newer one.

Let us know if you decide to try it!
[HTC Droid DNA] stlbluesfan46:
I ended up going with the Zephyr HxM Bluetooth for Android model (BT 2.0) to use with Endomondo. It works great so far!

After reading some posts on the Nexus forums, apparently BT 4.0 isn't fully supported yet on Android. Something about each app maker needing to create an API themselves to support BT 4.0. So most apps don't use it yet. The 4.0 devices may connect to the phone, but the app won't recognize it. Maybe Key Lime Pie will address this soon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slixzen:
So, I am having a huge problem with battery/charging.

To begin with, this happened around three weeks ago, I was travelling back from Atlanta, and the phone was acting really weird, screen flickering pretty badly. Then I plugged it in, it shut off/died after a couple minutes. This was also coupled by the fact that the entire phone, screen, battery, camera area, was burning hot.

So about a week ago, I installed the newest JB upgrade GB27 (I think that was it). Didn't have any HUGE issues for a little while. Come the end of last week, phone was experiencing the same problems. Phone is incredibly hot, etc. Now when I go to use it, say for instance, listening to music that I have stored on the phone, it heats up when just plugged into headphones, and/or shuts off (I assume due to heat). If I am at home, and come back and plug it on a charger, it will sometime shut off and show a yellow triangle with a temperature probe on it.

The same thing happened tonight. The phone was at a 10% charge, after dinner plugged it into one of my car chargers, instead of charging it drained the battery to 0, so it shut off after a couple minutes.

You might think it is just the battery, but, I got the battery replaced on Friday, and it has been happening since then.

What else could be the cause of the issue? I am going to try to take it in tomorrow, but, I don't know why else the issue is happening. This occurs after full data wipes and an upgrade, and occurs through multiple batteries. :/

Hi,

we're using MDAI + II (various OS/ROM versions) with Xtnd connect syncing to lotus notes. A big problem for the syncronisation with these group tools seems to be changing from timezones with daylight saving (dls) to timezones without dls. The results are appointments moving ´+1/-1 hour in lotus notes calendar.

This seems to be a known problem (see Microsoft KB 184253 -Appointment Times Not Properly Updated When Changing Home City).

Mostly the change of timezones happens accidently without the users notice (so they say :-o ). O.K, my idea is to prevent user access to the clock settings. Does anyone know to do this??

I tried a tool called RegKingPlus, but I didn't figured out which registry settings are changed. Deploying this tool is not an appropriate soloutions.

I would be very thankful for any ideas!!

My former 4.2.2 rom allowed the display of chopperthedog's mashup theme's larger pngs for status bar icons. I am now using an AOKP rom, and would like to use them again. I don't know if it is possible to hijack them from 1 rom into another, or where to find a version of his theme, nor how to install it. I have always used stock or no themes. I found his theme in a zip and flashed it, but my gnex wouldn't boot with it. Can anyone point me in the right direction please. Help a noob.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
Ooops, just saw your pm on rootz. Those theme zips were from the ics days which is why you went into a bootloop. I really haven't done anything with themeing in about 6 months (I'm still on 4.1.2). Back in october I putzed around with making some theme engine apk's for myself. I think the theme you're thinking of is the old geezer mash up that I helped zaphodbeeble with. I did pass along an apk for the geezer mashup that zaphodbeeble did post on rootz. But I left it off at 4.1.2 and it does work on 4.2.2 but the toggles and a couple other newer 4.2.2 elements are not themed.

*edit* ahhhhhh you must have been running sourcery (I had heard some of my icons ended up in that rom). I'll pm you a link to the mashup apk.

good day.

I just recently joined the rooting community a few days ago. I started by rooting my phone with petes rooting tool, and then sbf'd the phone back to android 2.3.4 before installing boot strap recovery on the phone. I was able to successfully flash the cyanogen 10 mod, with many exceptions. The first of these exceptions is that the phones keyboard did not work at all (unable to active phone, unable to do anything really), so I decided to look this up. I tried almost everything except installing a new gapps which I was in the process of doing when I hit a major roadblock. The problem I ran into was that when I re-installed the bootstrap recovery on the cyanogen 10 rom to get to the recovery mode in order to flash the gapps file, the phone became stuck on the M (dual core) boot screen. I was however able to access the boot menu (power+volume down), and tried to sbf the phone back to android 2.3.4 so that it would hopefully fix all of my stupidity. Little did I know that this would just increase my unluckiness with the rooting process, and the phone now will not boot into the boot screen. When I hold down (volume down+power) the phone simply flahes a screen and then will do nothing until I pop the battery out. After that, i tried simply turing the hone on by holding down just the power button, and it boot to a screen which displays "failed to boot 2" and then below that "starting RSD mode". From this screen I have tried to sbf to android 2.3.4, and also to android 2.3.5 multiple times, and every time it pops up with either an error on the computer, or "sec_exception: febe, 4e, 4e" and then an error on the computer. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! I AM OUT OF OPTIONS AT THIS POINT, AND AM STARTING TO PANIC! HELP ME!

im not completely sure why you sbf'd after rooting the first time? no need for that. i would read up a bit more if you do get it working, watch tomsgt123 's videos on youtube so you know what youre doing. and you used the Gapps for cm10.1 not our version. that is why keyboard didnt work. read read read. :eek:

after reading abain, i guess you were on 2.3.5. and thats why you sbf'd. but rooting was not needed before sbf. hope you have better luck next time .
