[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robstunner:
Hello,

Having problems with my contact auto sync, Im not sure what is causing it or why, but it seems that there is no way can get the autosync icon to go away. When I add and remove contact, and I turn sync off and on, the changes are made and seen on the phone as well as google contacts on the web, however I always have that icon present. YES, I have tried clearning data and cache from the contacts storage, contacts, and google contacts apps, with no change. I have removed my account and re-added it on my phone, with no change. I have removed all of my contacts from the website (google calendar) after exporting them, and still same sync problem with no contacts! Any help would be much appreciated!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderdome116:
I have had similar random sync problems with my main google account on the phone. However, despite reporting an error it usually syncs anyway. Other than a re-flash (sounds like it would totally fix your issue), not sure what to do.

Also, HaxSync JB workaround is no longer necessary for any 4.2.x release. Perhaps this is causing some issue. Good luck, let us know what fixes it!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robstunner:
Thanks, your probably right with the false error reporting however the one is still on 4.1.2 so the work around I suppose will still be needed

SIMI Folder for those who don't know is an app that creates widget , the particularity of this app is that it have 2 power features :

1 - unlimited recursive folders

2 - assign scrollable big images to shortcuts inside those folders

Let's see a simple procedure :

1- first you must install an emulator that can creates shortcuts of roms , example : gensoid

2- configure it by choosing the rom folder

3- go to simi > folders > add folder > enter a name (megadrive) and in foldertype choose "combined folder"

4- go to simi > shortcuts > add shortcut

5- choose "SEGA Genesis game" from the popup

6- choose a game , then name it

7- select it in the list

8- tape "change icon" , select a picture (i made all my megadrive pictures with this scall : 147px x 163px)

8- now that the icon is changed , check the megadrive folder (megadrive) you created

9- tape back

Now if you create a widget in the launcher , choose simi , then the folder you created

To add a folder to a folder for example , folder1 = emulations , folder2 = megadrive , go to simi > folders > choose the folder emulation > add > folder > choose megadrive

For the positioning in launcher , simi opens folder from up to down , lets say you have 5 rows in your launcher , make the folder emulation in the 2nd row , now if you tape it it'll open in the row underneath , if you tape a folder in that row it'll open roms underneath again , then you can scroll them

Download :

some joypads in png ;)

some cover pictures ;)

Tip for emulators that can't create shortcut for roms :

install totalcommander , it's a file manager that can assign an extension to a particulare app , for example , iso file . so you go to totalcommander settings > association > add new association , choose iso and fpse . then in the launcher when you add a shortcut , choose totalcommander and navigate to the iso you want. when you tape that shortcut in the launcher it will open with fpse (didn't try it with fpse but with tigerarcade for zip extension)​

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nocturnuz:
Hi sheraro, I have been messing around with it a lot, and mostly figured out things. However, I'm having a few problems assigning FPSE psx games.

- I can make a game shortcut through FPSE. It creates an app shortcut on my homescreen that I can tap to go directly to the game. But I can't, in no way add the shortcut to the simi folder. Is it possible to locate the shortcut on the homsecreen through explorer? A way to add to simi widget.

-I tried using the Total Commander to associate file types, for eg: for .bin types for FPSE. However, TC cannot locate FPSE for assigning the program.

- I even tried to link the app FPSE multiple times within the simi folder. The idea was to change the icons for each FPSE app to different psx titles. So that tapping on the icons would open FPSE app. But even that doesn't work because I can't add FPSE more than one time.

- Anyway possible to link psx titles/icons at least to open fpse within Simi folder? Or maybe add a shortcut to the FPSE app more than once. Is there any solution to this problem? =) I think my mind ran out of juice.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sheraro:
yeah you're right , fpse isn't present in the list of associations in totalcommander , and doesn't propose shortcuts to individual games so no way to add them to simi , but i spoked to fpse developer and he told me that he'll add this feature in future updates so lets wait and see :)

I'm running NeatROM lite, at 280dpi. All running nicely.

I've used xposed app settings to change the email app to its default 320dpi setting and it looks OK. But when you go in the email settings its all screwed up.

So can anyone advise what is the correct xposed app settings to get the email app dispalying correctly?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twelch82:
I am a "noob" to android but have always gotten elbow deep into computers so i figured I would take a crack at it. Well it cracked me back and now I am stuck and help would be great....

I have an ascend II cricket phone, I rooted the phone using a guide foud on www,theunlockr,com and everthing was good. Iflashed a couple different roms and still no problems but I couldn't find one that had everthing I wanted so I decided to dig deeper.

I reflashed the phone back to stock with no problems and started changing little thing like sounds and the boot animation and then I went for broke and tried flashing a kernel that was supposed to enable multi-touch on the display - BRICK-!

I once again reflashed back to stock and installed the android updateds to bring my as current as the ascend to gets and re-did all my custom sounds and graphics.

This is where things go bad, I put everything back on the phone (battery, back plate, and hard plastic holster) and inadvertently put the holster on upside down so when I powered the phone on the two volume buttons where being held in by the holster and it once again started to re-flash the firmware, I didn't want to mess it up and yank the battery mid process so i let it run and it never came back :(.

At current the phone powers on but freezes at the oem boot logo. I have tried with no sucess to enter both fastboot and recovery, however I can still re-flash the firmware. When connected to my pc the computer recognizes that the device is plugged in only if I boot the phone while holding both volume buttons in with out an sd card inserted. This brings me to a blank pink screen. even though windows sees it there is no communication to the device.

I downloaded the stock firmware from several different source but they all produce the same result.

Also every 15 minutes or so the screen goes blank, vibrates and the boot logo comes back on, obviously the phone is trying to do something so I feel as though all is not lost, any advice or ideas as to what I can do from here would be greatly appreciated. (i tried to make sure I included all the details of my situation if there is anything else I or you need to know just ask.)

On my note 2 I returned s cover because of how annoying it was to take pictures since you had to hold the cover half open to do so. I'm wondering since the case has the opening now if the camera lens peaks through it or not?

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] val4uk:
Tested it- works.. but not the best option

I have finally got both the phone and cover today. So once i found this topic straight away tried to take a picture.

Here is my opinion: Yes, it can be done! .. but the downsides are:

1. smudges on s-cover glass

2. dust on s-cover glass

3. if photos are taken against sunlight s-covers glass shines and reduces the quality of the photo

All together i wouldn`t recommend to use camera with s-cover flipped to the back
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Silenus21:
Thanks for the info.

According to the video there is no magnet on the cover.

I thought there is a magnet.

Can anyone confirm?

If it's true then wake up on opening should work on any cover like my Note 2.

Would love if it's officially from samsung not a third party app.

Wow! That took forever for global abilities become official. At least it's a newer version than the current global ruu.
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
Here's hoping everyone takes the upcoming update and some roms are re-based (if needed). now that this global ota is receiving a full release it should make things a bit easier. I still cant believe in the threads there are people still running gingerbread firmware.
[HTC Rezound] Cares:
Does that mean we'll be seeing better data support when on other networks?
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
It'll be better when they drop kernel source for the global update. I can't believe this OTA is coming nearly 10 months after the leak. Completely ridiculous. What incredibly valuable piece of crap did Big Red have to add to the mix to delay this?

I have the Global leak and haven't seen the update yet...

My gut tells me I won't, so I will have to wait until it gets release here somewhere.

[HTC Rezound] Morpheus991:
I noticed a weird new keyboard installed called "DioPen IME" after I did the update. I think it has handwriting recognition and some Asian language integrated (no offence).

Also just noticed that my screen dims after 15 seconds of not touching it no matter what my display settings are..kind of like during long moments of inactivity during navigation, weird...ok figured it out, it's only when the battery is under 20%.
[HTC Rezound] esheesle:
I'd be very curious to hear from anyone trying out GSM support after this update. Will a tmobile sim work in the phone (give voice, txt, data without special mods to the rom)?

[HTC Rezound] bigsnack:
Interesting, I too am on ViperRez(last version released) and I didn't see any update, at least not yet. Are you also on the global leak?

I can just flash this in recovery and not worry about losing any data or anything if I am on the leak, or do I have to do something special? I'm S-off as a note,
[HTC Rezound] layneja:
Will your instructions work if I'm currently on the 4.03.605.2 leak?

Thanks for your help !!!
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
I think so, as long as you are just using firmware.zip and not OTAPkg.zip

My understanding of firmware update is that the radios aren't patched, they're just wiped out and replaced with the new one. Whereas with the OTA, you are also updating the ROM by patching rather than replacing a complete new copy of the ROM (stock is like 550 mb)

If you just update firmware, you will still be on the .2 ROM, until you flash the new stock rom and its accompanying boot.img
[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
Never mind. I should have read a few pages back.
[HTC Rezound] troy7548:
Can someone point me to the right link for an S-On user that will get the radios and full update. I know I will have to relock bootloader to update just not sure what file to use.
[HTC Rezound] layneja:
Thanks Brenuga. Theses instructions worked for me.
[HTC Rezound] kopower:
Anybody have problems flashing the update Neo posted? I'm S-Off and placed the PH98IMG.zip onto the root of my sd card. Flashed in recovery, says it finds the update package, opens the update package, installs the update, then I get this prompt: E:Can't find update script. Installation aborted. I'm running Neo's Rage rom. Thoughts? Does it need to be on my internal sd?

Edit* Bootloader showing hboot 2.27, and radios 801r and 803r
[HTC Rezound] echolocator:
You have to put the file on the root of your sdcard and boot into boot loader then go into fastboot. It will ask you to press power to install it.
[HTC Rezound] kopower:
Awesome. Thanks man :good:
[HTC Rezound] braveally:
Thanks, i'm gonna give this a try later when I have a chance. I do have a question, I seem to be unable to access my internal sd card in recovery for some reason lately. Will this affect my ability to backup and update? If so can you recommend some instructions to fix that error? I just ignored it since I did not need it for anything.
[HTC Rezound] braveally:
can you share what you did to go back to stock. I am in your situation.
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Flash the stock recovery. Unzip, place it in a folder your adb can see it, then use command fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img

What I had to do to clear the cache images included these additional steps:

Pull the battery, replace, then restart the phone pressing and holding Power + Volume Down for several seconds. It will boot to a screen with a red exclamation point and triangle. Press power + volume up and it will go into the recovery menu. Choose "Clear Storage". (This is basically the same as Factory Reset on custom recovery but is a little more thorough). After it's finished return to fastboot and you can permanently flash amon ra back to your phone and the errors will be gone. You will also need to restore a backup or flash a new rom after clearing storage.

See Scottys noob friendly root guide-start to finish for more details on flashing recovery, etc.
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
Thats what i had to do to fix that message. I just didnt reflash the stock recovery, i just reflashed amon ra, then basiclly did the same thing you did I was getting the same thing and it worked for me :)
[HTC Rezound] braveally:
Followed this process exactly (my first time using ADB too) and it worked perfectly. All updated. I feel a lot better now.
[HTC Rezound] clmowers:
Those were the ones I followed. Had to do a couple things manually as the commands weren't working. All the up to boot into recovery the second time. Keep telling me there was no recovery. Hence why I had to reflash amon and then restore and boot manually like flashing it for the first time
[HTC Rezound] troy7548:
Will I need a boot image after unlocking or will the backup install one?

Could I just rename the firmware.zip to PH98img? thats how I installed the first OTA Global
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
The backup will install one. But you need to either be s-off or launch custom recovery with fastboot boot recoveryfilename.img to make sure recovery can write to the boot partition.
[HTC Rezound] troy7548:
So after I unlock again I reinstall Amon ra then reinstall the backup. I am S-On
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
You either have to reinstall the backup, but before rebooting, flash the boot.img using fastboot flash boot boot.img

or, temporary launch amon ra using the command:

fastboot boot amon_ra_recovery.img

and then restore the backup.
[HTC Rezound] restlessswind:

Ok, I finally isolated the service (app) that was running the OTA update. It is HtcDm (not HTC DM) the one with no space.

[HTC Rezound] ct2715:
Looking for advice

Everytime I check for a software update I get nothing. I tried using the OTAPkg.zip that was posted however it did not work. I am not sure it is even the right one for my phone. The specs are listed below. I don't believe I am currently rooted. If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. Definately not opposed to rooting it with a different ROM just to get rid of the Verizon bloatware as well as getting wireless tethering to work.

Looks like you are on the global leak. From my understanding you have to be on the official build in order to receive an update.

what you could try doing is flashing a custom recovery to flash the ota package
[HTC Rezound] MedleHed:
You will need to visit http://www.htcdev.com to get your Rezound unlocked. Then you can proceed with getting root access and S-OFF. There are some great procedure threads here on XDA. I used them with little to no problem.

You may be able to install the 3.14.605.12 RUU and then find the OTAPkg.zip to 3.14.605.13. From there I think you can install the OTAPkg.zip for the latest OTA without unlocking at all. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Sounds like you want root though. Good luck!

otacerts.zip

found files and HTC_OTAClient.zip. moved them all to sd card, but update still auto downloads.

still trying to weave through all these postings to find a comprehensive solution to get the update for rooted, unlocked, s-on? Then re-root. Should we use Hasoon's tool to relock, install stock recovery (where is that file?) then reboot for update to take effect? Then unlock, re-root?

Confused - somewhat of a noob here..

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
Download the firmware zip from post 35 of this thread then read my s-on instructions in post 59.

You will need to use the command line prompt on your OS to do some of the instructions.
[HTC Rezound] JCatman:
adb commands

brenuga - thanks for the info. I have read several of your posts, and scotty's pasting of your stuff. I am having problems getting the adb shell to execute commands with "waiting for device issues." However, since I'm still learning I don't understand some logistical items. such as when it says to flash firmware.zip - where does that file need to be for successful command? likewise with unlocktoken. and is there an .12 ruu file we need? gather that might need to be in same place as firmware, unlock...

thanks for you time and contributions!
[HTC Rezound] JCatman:
questions

The firmware zip in post 35 has a boot.img file in it. are we supposed to reflash THAT boot.img? Do we still need to flash a custom recovery .img and ICS ROM over top of this?
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
No, don't extract the firmware.zip . You have to flash it in a very specific way with fastboot, see post 59. Place the firmware.zip and your unlock_token.bin in the same directory as your adb/fastboot executable on your PC.

When you update the firmware, it will wipe whatever is currently in the boot and recovery partitions on your phone. You can either re-flash the boot.img from your ROM's zip, or flash a new ROM (assuming you have launched recovery with fastboot boot recovery.img, which puts phone in temporary s-off mode).

The firmware.zip is different than the OTApkg in that it does not include the new stock ROM. You can either keep your current RO, flash the new version of the stock sense ROM (see Android Original Development forum), or flash another ROM altogether.
[HTC Rezound] JCatman:
adb and file Qs

thanks Brenuga! Just a few more details needed. gather these are adb shell commads, which I'm having an issue with since device is discovered, but get responses like; cannot find amon, waiting for device, etc. separate issue.

However, "..you can re-flash the boot.img.." is the ROM's zip you are refering to another file I need ready and on sd card/other? As this ROM - can I use the global OTAzip or do you recommend another stock ICS OTA? what would I name it? place it is same adb/fastboot folder?

all for now...chipping away at understanding this process.
