[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
Getting through to O2 and then speaking with someone who actually can help is rather like trying to obtain an audience with the Pope - the latter would probably be much easier!

Question - do I have to have O2 mobile web activated on my SIM by one of those 'ever so helpful' people at O2?

I have tried just about everything to connect to GPRS without a glimmer of success and am now searching my medicine cabinet for the answer.

I knew I was wrong in getting rid of my trusty Sagem MC920!

Best Regards

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ranger:
Ian,

Yup, O2 need to activate it on their side before you can GPRS. Give them a buzz, I'm sure they will be as helpful to you as they were to me. It only took me a few weeks to get setup. :twisted:

Try e-mailing them. Often I phone thinking it will be quicker, but they are so difficult to get through to, e-mail is usually much easier and cheaper (50p per minute on theyr phone line :( ).

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
Ok, thanks for your help - It's very probably me being impatient!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Andrew-77:
Are you with O2 online?

If not, I may be able to help. PM me your mobile no. and I’ll have it checked out for you.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
No Andrew, I'm with BT

Thanks anyway!

I'm sure it's all down to my acute lack of patience - O2 say they will call me so I will wait - something I hate doing!

Regards

Ian G
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Andrew-77:
PM Me your no. then. I work for O2 and can tell you in a couple of minutes whether or not your no. is GPRS enabled. I can probably enable it for you if it isn’t.

You’ve probably been speaking to some customer services person. Believe it or not, they are always incredibly busy.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
Hey - I got GPRS!!

Many many thanks for your input Andy

Erm do you own O2???

Best Regards

Ian G
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Andrew-77:
Heh heh! I wish!

Nope, I just work for them. I've been here long enough though to develop a weird sort of loyalty. If I see a customer in trouble, I race to the rescue!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
My faith is restored

Good Man!

Certainly gave me faith in O2 - I can watch the match in peace now.

Thanks again Andy

I know over at the androidforums a few users where able to succesfully port from vm to ting. However they didn't really give too many details regarding the whole process especially with roms. Before I keep on going I'd like to apologize as I think this thread is supposed to go into the development section but I'm denied because I just signed up. Anyways I'd like to know what I need to do to in order to be able to flash the sprint based roms on here. Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Highway 55:
Is there a list of Samsung and Sprint bloatware that I can safely remove without breaking any of the functionality of the phone? I have already done some of the obvious ones like sprint TV, etc...

I was shocked after I flashed a kernel when it said Android is upgrading 0 of 301 apps :eek: and I havent even downloaded many of my apps from the play store. I think the most I ever had on my Nexus S was 162 or something, and that included almost 60 from the play store.

The apk names sometimes differ from their display name in Titanium Backup, but they're generally easy to find.

As always, nand backups before freezing anything you don't know, since you can easily get bootloops this way.

Has anyone had issues with using Google Now (or any voice recognition) with bluetooth? The microphone will come up but I never get the "speak now" command but all is well when I'm not connected to my BT headset.

Oh, I'm on CleanRom 1.6 now but had the issue when I was stock too.

Yes. Broken on every phone I have used.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toronadian:
This might not be a Nexus 4 specific question but it's starting to bother me quite a bit.

A few days ago, I was browsing XDA on the Chrome Beta browser. I might have (not sure) accidentally tapped on an advertisement. It lead me to some URL that was related to adtrack.king that would popup, and then the Play Store would come up to get me to download Candy Crush. I've tried deleting the browsing data in the privacy settings of Chrome, as well as going into settings, then deleting all data from Chrome. It works for a bit but when I try to get back onto XDA, the popup happens again and again it tries to get me to download Candy Crush.

This link from the Google forums is an example of what happens. You can search on the internet and there have been many people complaining about this both on Android and iOS, but I have not been able to find a fix for it.

http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/EDJTbPaW5dg

For now it seems it only happens on XDA forums, but from reading up on the internet, it seems it appears with whatever forum that people originally get the issue from (ie. if someone got it from a car forum, it would be whenever they go on the car forum that the popup would occur).

EDIT: OK, I've noticed that it is specifically the page that I first experienced the issue that the popup ad will occur. I first experienced it on my phone when reading the dbrand skins thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2095261&page=245) that the popup will occur. I start looking at any other XDA page and it won't happen but it's in that specific thread that it will happen. I'm starting to think this is linked with Chrome along with pages on a forum that a person will view.

EDIT #2: Here's a video of someone on an iPhone that experiences exactly the same thing. Only difference is that I'm on Android, and that it leads me to the Play Store to download the game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGJhYq95IFo

This is the URL of the popup

(DO NOT CLICK IT)

: http://adtrack.king.com/modules/adtracking/adclicked.jsp?type=ad&st1=hitfox&st2=candycrushsaga&st3=us$st4=&st5=aff_lsr&st6=102917ff4f43ecab466d8a83825d58&link=market://details?id=com.king.candycrushsaga

That popup will occur before Play Store opening up to Candy Crush
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toronadian:
Does NO ONE else know what I'm talking about or something? Just throw "adtrack.king" into Google search and there's plenty of hits.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerkSerk:
I got the same thing too, and I'm pretty sure I don't click any add while browsing

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toronadian:
OK, I see in my initial post I said I accidentally tapped an app and that might have confused you guys, I meant I might have accidentally tapped an advertisement, not an app when browsing XDA. The popup is always to some adtrack.king thing and it leads to the Play Store opening trying to get me to download Candy Crush.

Me too, I don't think I accidentally tapped on an advertisement either.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDig:
Just install ad away guys!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toronadian:
I'll try that out, but I feel like the problem will still be there, it's just blocking. In the sense that I think there's something wrong with the cookies but at least this does prevent the ad.

Has no one else seriously experienced this? I find PLENTY of Google hits but none with a solution for it. No, clearing cookies & browsing history does not fix it.

Candy Crush

I have had the same problem on my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and this is how I solved it.

On your home page, tap on the symbol of two rectangles in the lower left corner, this will bring up several icons on the left side of the screen.

In my case, I found the Candy Crush icon, I noticed the word "network" beside the CC icon before I deleted it, (this identity may be different on your device) hold finger on icon, and tap "remove from list".

At the bottom left tap "task manager". This will bring up a list, select "downloaded". Find an icon on the right that has the same identity you noticed along with the CC icon before you removed it. When you find it , regardless of what app is associated with it, tap "uninstall".

In my case the app was a game my grandkids downloaded called "Plants vs Zombies".

After following the above, the Candy Crush item was gone when I started my device. This was three days ago and it hasn't occurred again.

Hope this helps.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptechgalaxy:
stupid ad

i finally got rid of it! it was popping up each time someone would call me on my s3. the popup ad covered up accecpt/ deny with its own interface. tricking users to press on popups answer key which took you straight to candy crush game. luckily i had just pressed back each time it popped up. Today i missed a very important phonecall and i am sick of it! so, 1st i cleared all the data cache, cookies etc.. from all browsers I use . That didnt help.so, I just manually looked for shady apps installed from apks. i uninstalled nearly half of my apps :( . oh well. anyhow the culprit was a app called "MUZ" i have never used it before didnt even know it was there. as soon as i uninstalled that app popup went away immediately.

hope this helps anyone.

I downloaded OI File Manager and saw a folder named .adc and it had all of the jpg's and videos from the pop ups so I just deleted it from the person's GS3 that had the problem. I need more time to see if it is a long term solution but for now it looks as if it works.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Macklessdaddy:
anybody truly figure this out yet?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XaveT:
Idea

Yeah, I'm having the same problem.

I'm also thinking that we are looking at the problem incorrectly. Candy Crush Saga is just a red herring, the problem is having a link/page able to automatically launch the Play Store in the first place.

So I would submit that we need some way to modify the association to the "market://" protocol in Android itself.

I have this happen at LEAST once a day, and it's always annoying.

Anyone with MIME experience in Linux/Android that can point us at modifying this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon897:
THANKYOU!

Same thing happened to me recently.

I tried every add app possible finally found the .adc and it had a lot of what i was seeing all the time. Hope it fixes it.
[General Topics] Jupit3r:
I am really excited to hear that there will be two quad core tablets from Cube to hit the market some time this month, as I have been a fan of Cube ever since the MP4 era because of its excellent quality and reasonable price. I saw their product posters in their chat group this morning, and I wanna share this information with you guys here:

1. Quad core U30GT1 (Pea 1)

The Cube U30GT1 is the sister version of its widely celebrated Quad core U30GT2 tablet. Powered by the same impeccable quad core RK3188 Soc., the U30GT1 has downgraded the display resolution to WXGA (1280*800), and the rear side camera to 2MP.

As you have probably figured out already, this tablet is marketing towards users who need a 10.1 inch quad core tablet yet on a tighter budget.

Highlights:

-10.1 inch high quality display, 1280*800, wide viewing angles.

-RK3188 Soc., based on 28nm workmanship and Cortex-A9 frame, speed up to 1.8GHZ, Mali400-MP4 GPU@533MHZ.

-1GB RAM. ANTUTU Benchmark Score exceeds 18,000!

-Dual Cameras + LED Flash.

-ACC stereo speakers.

-Anti-rolling frame.

-Built-in Bluetooth.

-Intelligent light sensor

-HDMI

-7,200mAh Li-PO battery

Price: RMB 1,199 (USD 199)

The fact that Cube hasn't cut corners on the Bluetooth, anti-rolling frame and HDMI is actually quite impressive. A WXGA display with decent viewing angles is nice enough for the majority of users, and the reduction of pixels actually means speedier overall performance. The 2MP rear side camera is sufficient for any tablet, if you really want to shoot some decent photos, please use a phone!

But there're still some uncertainties, what is the display gonna be, is it gonna be an IPS-equivalent or is it gonna be a normal TN display, that's what I am really curious about.

2. Quad core U35GT (Cactus)

The Cactus has featured a 7.9 inch IPS display, which is very popular among tablet makers at the moment.

Highlights:

-7.9 inch IPS display, 1024*768.

-Ultra slim metal case design.

-RK3188 Soc., based on 28nm workmanship and Cortex-A9 frame, speed up to 1.8GHZ, Mali400-MP4 GPU@533MHZ.

-2GB RAM

-ACC stereo speakers.

-Anti-rolling frame.

-Built-in Bluetooth.

-Intelligent light sensor

-HDMI

-10,000mAh battery

Price: unknown yet

Thanks to the unrivaled popularity of the Apple iPad Mini, tablets with an 8 inch display and narrow bezel are currently the most celebrated.

Besides the fashionable narrow bezel and the incredible ultra slim metal design, what really astonishes me is the 10,000 mAh battery! I am really looking forward to the Cactus' battery life! Hope it's not gonna be too costly, though!

How much do u guys think the Cactus should be priced?

I'm running the latest AOKP nightly but also had the issue in the most recent milestone. If I try to get my location using cell/network in maps it works one time. Then I either have to restart the phone or toggle location permission from settings to get it again. If I don't do those then the blue circle blinks and turns gray and I get an erorr message. I've had no problems with other apps like yelp. Any ideas?

EVOKED by Grogg

Hello Everyone!

Although I have long since removed my ROM due to lack of demand, I have had several requests for the release of my kernel which was exclusive to the ROM. This is long overdue for release, but I finally decided to toss it out there for those who wish to use it. I've been using it as a daily driver for some time and find it to be very stable. This kernel is based off SebastianFM's overclocked kernel, but incorporates many functions from Faux and showp1984, as well as my own changes. It is 100% compatible with Kernel Tuner (which is installed by default).

I will make no outlandish claims about this kernel. It's functional and stable, and I hope some people will be satisfied with it. It will not supercharge, turbocharge, or hypercharge your device. It will not help you get chicks, get a raise, grow hair, save the world, or anything else ridiculous. By downloading and flashing this kernel you are accepting the normal full liability of messing with your device!

This kernel is a throwback. I plan on adding a couple items, but there will be no long term support/updates...

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

*ICS SENSE BASED ROM 3.6, 4.0, or 4.1

FEATURES:

*CPU Overclock to 1782 (1566 by default)

*GPU 3D Overclock to 320 (300 by default)

*Undervolt compatible

*Time in State

*LED Notification Timeout Control

*Capacitive Button Backlight Control

*Fastcharge (Smart Fastcharge) Control

*Vsync Control

*Color Depth Control

*Sweep2Wake Control (settings modified)

*Built in Thermal

*Built in Mpdecision

*USB-OTG and Host

*USB-Serial

*SD Cache Control

*IO Scheduler Control: noop, deadline, cfq, sio

*Governers: interactive, conservative, ondemand, performance, badass, and intellidemand (ondemand by default)

*Wi-Fi pm_fast control

*Kernel Tuner and USB-OTG Helper installed by default for total control over kernel

** I HAVE INCLUDED A CLEANER IN THE INSTALLER. IF YOU EXPERIENCE BOOTLOOPS, REBOOTS, OR OTHER UNDESIRED CONDITIONS AND ARE COMING FROM ANOTHER KERNEL THEN I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU REFLASH YOUR CURRENT ROM WITHOUT WIPING BEFORE INSTALLING MY KERNEL**

**IF YOU ARE REPORTING BUGS THEN PLEASE INCLUDE A DMESG, LAST_KMSG, KERNEL VERSION, ROM VERSION, ANY ADDITIONAL FILES YOU'VE FLASHED, AND ALL TWEAKS YOU HAVE MADE WITH KERNEL TUNER AND/OR SIMILAR APP.

I WILL NOT RESPOND UNLESS ALL OF THIS INFORMATION IS PRESENT.**

Ahh finally you're back :D

I shared your 2.6 kernel for sometime after you removed it.. Now i cant wait to go back to your 3.0 kernel :D

Just one more request if it's not too much struggle

Can you add intellidemand governor (Imo this is the best ever governer for sensation heavy users)

Edit: it's working well on sense 4.1 roms.. Using it on viper rom

Only problem I've seen is the kernel is not cleaning the other previous kernel init.d scripts (we need to do it manually)

Better mention that in OP

Ok so I myself updated to the new jellybean tonight over kies by entering my s/n number on the back of the phone and updating firmware to 4.1.2. My friend went to do the same thing only his doesn't have an S/N number. Just an imei number like WTH? We also noticed his was made in china while mine was made in Korea. His is phone is white and mine is black (no it's not racial) just wondering if that's got something to do with it. So he tried typing in the imei number and no go. He tried looking in phone settings and the s/n number there is significantly smaller than mine and kies didn't accept it.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Stock rom will show serial number under settings/about phone or further under phone status. Never found the phone serial under cm10, or other custom roms.
