[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuffzehn:
I always run the bootloader without power cord. May my SD Card be broken in some way so that it takes so long to read it? It is a 16GB card. But it shouldnt take 5 minutes or so to look for the zip file, shouldnt it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Try to boot in hboot with the sd-card out. Does it do the same thing?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuffzehn:
First thing was reformatting my fat32 partition and copying back the files. It fixed it, now checks the drive for the files in like 2 or 3 seconds, found that after googling a bit longer. So somehow the file system may have been bugged a bit?

Thanks for all help

I am travelling to the USA on business. I currently have an O2 contract. Will my current GPRS settings work over there?

On another point (nothing to do with XDAII), if I want to use a hotel phone line is there a way of finding a local number to dial for internet access?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgbolanios:
Here is the thing: i' ve been trying to change the TW UI in my note so it can arrange more icons and making it more suitable to the eye (those ugly huge icons). The problem is with xposed framework I changed all the apps I want but with the UI it's only compressed. Is there a way to get a phablet or tablet UI for TW? BTW I'm running Tonofu rom, is stock holand with some minor tweaks. Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
I think there is an xposed module for that. Check it out.

I've seen it. Something 5 x 4 mod. But i thought it was for the drawer. I 'll check it.

1- Can you surf the net and be on phone call at the same time like the gs3.

2- is it worth it to upgrade from gs3 to gs4 thanks advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myphone12345:
1. No for CDMA, yes for LTE and Wi-Fi (in the future please do a search, this question has already been asked and answered a whole bunch of times).

2. I think that's a matter of personal opinion (also do a search as that topic has been covered a lot too).

Ouch - 1st things first get a screen protector/ seriously to protect the broken glass (not to the protect the phone) / Its probably too early, but u can look for a new digitizer / it's gonna be expensive / i'm assuming you don't have insurance (or the co-pay is really high)/ sorry about the phone...

edit double ouch... ($262)

http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-samsung-galaxy-s4-gt-i9500-lcd-screen-and-digitizer-assembly.html

If u have insurance, i would go that route...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jediknight111:
Yeah tell me about it, bad luck and ouch..

I was thinking about the digitiser and stuff, but isn't that for the touch screen function? That works and so the screen, any way to replace the top plastic only?

Sorry if silly question, making suire

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuuuuuuuu:
It's quite a specialist task with a very strong chance of things going wrong (you can see an example here); I would recommend just buying a new digitiser + display.

[HTC Incredible S] super-user2.3:
guys i was checking the ubuntu phone page fro workin devices and i saw the desire s among them but not our beloved phone so shouldn't we do something about it:rolleyes:
[HTC Incredible S] 072665995:
So go ahead and compile for us. period.
[HTC Incredible S] super-user2.3:
hehehee my friend if knew how i woudln't be posting this at all we need experts which i'm definitley not one
[HTC Incredible S] 072665995:
One general rule is to never request things (unless its like a mod for a ROM). Its cuz building such takes time and patching bugs takes even more time. And the dev might not have that much time to do such a thing... plus ubuntu is still in its developer stages...
[HTC Incredible S] srv.abhishek:
I don't think so that the forum stops anyone from posting requests.. if everyone was a developer, then we would be having a million ROMs.. as users, we can post ideas.. if the dev team thinks it can be picked up, it is fine.. else it remains an idea...
[HTC Incredible S] 072665995:
No i didnt mean Forum rule. I just meant general rule of respect. Like how you shouldnt ask for things, u should just be happy with what u have :p
[HTC Incredible S] super-user2.3:
hey man i was merely saying that we should do something for ubuntu support and by "we" i meant every one of us who can contribute with this and this is only a thread to gather ideas not to request any thing
[HTC Incredible S] vieose:
Useless. Ubuntu hasn't full functionality at the time. You even can't connect WiFi. Wait till its released.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Faluzure:
FYI for those of you just shopping around for something to buy for your new GS4. I registered my GS4 on Samsung's website ( http://www.samsung.com/us/support/register/product ) and by doing so, you get a coupon for 50% off any accessory under $50. To my knowledge, there's no mention of it anywhere on the registration page, but I just got an email.

Of all the things under $50, the one that caught my eye was another 2600mAH battery (listed at $39.99). While steep and you can get 3rd party batteries for cheaper, the 50% brings it to $20. Not too shabby. Other stuff under $50 are bluetooth earpieces, flip covers (not S-version), and a couple chargers and even the Galaxy Multimedia Dock.

Fine print shows that shipping is $3.95 unless your order is over $49.99, which then it's free.

EDIT: Oh, the so called "Galaxy S 4 Spare Battery Charging System" for $49.99 includes a 2600mAH battery, so that might be a better buy than the battery itself because the case acts as a holder/case you can charge at the same time. 50% off means you'd get the case for a $5 difference than the regular battery after discount.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Vahur_v:
Does this work only in USA?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Faluzure:
I'm actually not sure since the link I posted was for the Samsung.com/US registration. I'm wondering if you might have to go to the Samsung website for your country.

Never hurts to register though "just in case".
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] reverepats:
Its too bad none of these accesories are ever in stock anyway. Same thing with the S3 as well. Everything was always on backorder
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] OxyEthane:
thk , just got my coupon. will it work on multi item under 50 or just one
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Faluzure:
I just noticed that. I think though, you have to move your cart to backorder. What this does is reserve one for you (and they email you) when they actually do get them in stock. I just reserved that extra charger/battery and supposedly they'll email me when they have it in stock.

Just one item unfortunately. Luckily shipping isn't too bad ($3.95).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] reverepats:
Yes your correct. I'm curious if they'll charge you immediately, or give you the option to checkout when it comes available. I've been ding for the light blue protective case, but I believe BB will have it in stock within the next few days. Amazing already is out of stock. But I'm sure within time, things will be ready to go. Hopefully lol! I miss my spare battery. I love that on the S3
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] DJsCrIBbLe:
Last time I got a code was registering my note 10.1 used it on a 60$ case and dock and it discounted both.

This time the code for my s4 doesn't even work.. says invalid on a 40$ dock wtf...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Faluzure:
They don't charge you. There's no way for you to put your payment info. At least when I did it, it just sent me to a page saying my order was placed and when it arrives, i have an option to go to a special checkout page.

So I guess it's more of a "preorder" thing for 50% off.

When are they releasing the Spare Battery Charger + Battery?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] datura77:
just got the coupon, so it works. too bad everything is overpriced....
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Faluzure:
That's true... But I think the Spare Charger/Battery is the one of the few things worth it since you get an OEM battery & charger case for a good price.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ThugosaurusRex:
Thanks for this, it worked :D
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] facetubespam:
Damn, everything is so overpriced. I'll wait to see their price for the new MHL adapter and maybe then the coupon will be worth it for me.

Just used this. Got the wireless charging backplate and the charger/battery bundle for $50. I wanted the samsung wireless charger because it uses the bigger contacts for power, 1A charging rate, guaranteed NFC working, and about the same price for one of those QI inserts.

[HTC One X] leecavturbo:
Works between my hox and nexus10 and vice versa. But my wife's hox does not!

ROM feature?

All rooted but different roms

P.s I get 1Meg in 10Secs transfers. No Wi-Fi connected
[HTC One X] myself11:
1 MB in 10 seconds is slower than wifi, right? But must be faster than Bluetooth.
[HTC One X] leecavturbo:
Yep but plenty for the odd photo, song

It was said that nfc had very very limited speed and would never ever be useful for files like a photo but obviously some one found away
[HTC One X] fooforever:
What app are you using? As far as I knew NFC never actually transferred anything, it just initiated a Bluetooth connection and the terminated it instantly once the transfer was finished.

As far as compatibility goes as long as the receiving device can handle the file type it should do fine, I've transferred stuff to windows 8 PCs from my phone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] xMemphisx:
I just got the HTC One for T-Mobile last week. It is already rooted and all that fun stuff, but there is nothing in the Development section. I'm assuming that's because you can use any ROM in the HTC m7 section with any other variant of the phone? How does that affect the radio and things like LTE? I'm interested because the last thing I saw showed the new(est) update included a lot of improvements for the camera, but show no signs of being available OTA for T-Mobile anytime soon.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Gamesoul Master:
Yeah, we'll eventually get some devs for our phone specifically. In the meantime, you can indeed flash the international ones. Doesn't affect signal or anything because that's part of the radio, which is completely independent of the ROM. Do a backup, flash a ROM, and enjoy :)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] blackangst:
^^^ This. Be aware you wont have wifi calling with an international ROM. So if you need wifi calling, be patient and wait for a dev on TMo to get a One and build :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] glensta:
Though I Bricked, LOL

I'm such a lame sometimes and this is a heads up to anyone else who might goof up like this.

I followed instructions per OP, put phone into download mode, or so I thought. I turned my device off, held the power& vol down button but did not hit the vol-up button to fully go into download mode.

Then I ran Odin and it said failed. When I tried to restart the device - I had a yellow triangle symbol with a firmware error message. I panicked for a moment :confused:, then tried to get into download mode again and did it right this time, flashed recovery, all good :good:. The font is kind of crazy colorful, but thank god I didn't botch it up too bad.

Just an FYI in case someone else get's that firmware error message, only a soft brick so far.

Edit - attached picture of recovery and that zany font, lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dulanic:
Awesome! You and shabby make me feel like I'm back on sprint again lol. Good thing since both of you rock but man did sprint suck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] k0nane:
The font is intentionally colorful. As for Odin errors... well, Samsung stock USB cables and all. Any former GS1 series owners will know what I mean. (It's more likely to be a bad download now.)

I remember you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAtheistOtaku:
id rather forget i was ever on sprint......the e4gt was a great phone. just crappy service

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] doomx101:
Worked! I love this and how quick everything is going compared to many other phone experiences I had. I have a harder time tying then having the device rooted and recovery. Not sure how someone could brick their device doing this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wavrunrx:
i cant seem to get odin to see my phone.

when i have the phone on and useable, if i open odin, i see that it find it on COM3

when i reboot, then press power + vol up, i get it into download mode (is it normal that the android has a red triangle above it?) and open odin again, it doesnt see it.

i have usb debugging enabled.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattlgroff:
That wasnt download mode...

Do this to go to it

adb reboot download
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] k0nane:
Or READ THE OP like the big red text said to - download mode is Vol Down + Power. Recovery is Vol Up + Power.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] cbetso:
Any chance to get the recovery to download back up to sdcard. Kind of short on memory since we only get 9gb of phone storage
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] k0nane:
"Backup to external SD card"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattlgroff:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShadowZero:
Hi I am trying to work through the process of rooting my HTC One.

I have some experience with android as I've rooted three different phones now, the One is the only one giving me trouble :/

So I got the bootloader unlocked via the HTC Dev method, and now I'm trying to get recovery to work. I've flashed CWM, CWMT, and TWRP, and no matter which I try I can't boot into recovery via "adb reboot recovery" or via the HBOOT menu. When I try the phone just goes through a regular reboot. I can't use ROM Manager to do it either naturally since I don't have root yet (need recovery to install SuperSU).

However ROM Manager does show I have CWM and TWRP installed (both? weird) so I tried to start over by doing "fastboot erase recovery" but it says

FAILED: (remote: not allowed)

I tried "fastboot erase cache" before and after flashing a recovery and nothing at all changes.

Any ideas? Could I have missed something really simple and stupid? I'm pulling all my hair out trying to figure this out.

I heard some people got it to work by flashing the recovery to the boot partition, but until I get assurance that isn't a terrible horrible idea (like it seems) I don't want to try that.

EDIT: yes, the "fast boot" option in the power menu is already disabled.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ar3na:
I had the same issue. Solved it by disabling the fast boot option within the OS. Under power options.

Worth a shot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShadowZero:
Thanks for the reply but that option is already disabled :(
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WeegeeNumbuh1:
I was facing the same problem, however, what I did was turn on fast boot under settings right after I flashed the recovery.

Then, I rebooted back into the bootloader and I now had ***TAMPERED*** at the top of my screen. I afterwards selected reboot into recovery and bam, I now had TWRP on my phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShadowZero:
Just tried that, didn't work :(

Also why would you have TAMPERED at the top? Did you change anything else to get that like flash a different HBOOT or fastboot or something?

I'm about to throw this thing out the window -___-
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShadowZero:
SOLVED

Hallelujah, I got it!

I did nothing differently, but eventually it worked...very weird, but at least I got it! The final iteration to get it working was this:

1. Turn off fast boot option in power menu

2. Boot into bootloader via power menu, then power + vol down

3. go into fastboot

4. from a cmd window, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

5. fastboot erase cache

6. from the menu, boot into recovery

7. phone boots to the OS instead of recovery

8. boot back into the bootloader via power menu, power + vol down

9. TAMPERED shows up, boot into recovery and it works!

note that i never used adb reboot recovery or adb reboot bootloader, idk if that matters, but I did everything from the phone.

thanks for all your help!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkjedi:
For what it's worth, I use ROM Toolbox's Reboot to recovery option and it works. Though I can see where you'd need to boot to recovery from startup.

Hi, I have an S-ON Dev ed, I flashed TWRP 2.5.0.0 to the device via fastboot. Everything seemed to go just fine, but I can't boot into recovery at all! Everytime I go to bootloader and choose Recovery, it just reboots back to OS.

Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itaintrite:
Just tried and still doesn't work. Quick boot also off in Settings.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuantifyThis:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itaintrite:
Okay, I agree with everybody else. This is freaking weird too. I went home and used the same toolkit to boot into bootloader and "tampered" showed up right away. Chose Recovery and TWRP loaded perfectly fine. Weird.

Is it possible to remove the recommended earphone shortcuts that appear in the drop down notification when headphone are connected?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pennas:
I would like to know the same thing. On my S2 (JB4.1) there is a menu option to disable this (System / Accessory / Audio Applications). They seem to have removed this option on the S4 - it's not on the Accessory options screen...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowledgeworker:
Could someone explain to me what the "recommended shortcuts (earphones)" actually is and where can I configure it? I like the idea, yet I'd like to configure it.

But I can't seem to find a setting or app. Is it really connected to a "Page buddy" app? I have no such app on my SGS4.
