[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jejb:
I believe I found the culprit. I have been checking the roaming guard as I rebuilt my phone. All was fine until I did the clear data and force stop on the Google Services Framework. I did that a few minutes ago to try and force the OTA update (which I've not been able to do) and now my roaming guard selections are greyed out again. Damn. Another hard reset.

I'm not rooted, so what is the best way to backup my phone's apps so they get restored at the push of a button?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] hipsterzipster:
Confirm RTM worked for me as well

I had the same problem with my Galaxy S4 (Sprint) and I can confirm that performing that the RPM fixes it as long as you perform it when you're NOT on roaming. I'm pretty sure this bug comes out when you initially activate your device while on roaming. Regardless, here are the steps again with a little extra detail:

Call Sprint Customer Service and ask for your MTL code

Use helium/carbon or another app to backup your AppData if your phone isn't rooted.

Open the Dialer app

Press ##786#

Enter your MTL code

Press "Reset"

Press OK and let the device perform factory reset.

When it's totally started up again (after the Samsung and Google sign-ins), download helium

Connect your phone to your computer and launch helium/carbon desktop app

Once the app says Helium enabled, restore all your programs and their respective app data. Note this works for NON-ROOTED devices

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] oohaylima:
Was your method different?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buzzwyzr:
No...I used the method above.

I was just worried it may break root. But it didn't. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gnuf99:
You don't need to use your MTL code. Just do a Factory Reset and you're good to go.

Couldn't find this anywhere but on the s3 the devs had a mod to use ANY and EVERY app on multi view. Is this mod available for the s4 yet? It's annoying not being able to use certain apps simultaneously other wise great phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] superandroidalex:
Also, do you think that devs will be able to make any mods or tweaks with the air view/gesture features? Like switch between recent apps with the wave of a hand or something?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] KCtheGREAT:
It works exactly as advertised. After enabling other apps, a simple reboot is needed. From then on, whatever app you've added to multi Window will be available to use with any other app in multi Window.

Hey there, I had this issue and no one was able to help me when I asked about it, after doing much googling and experimenting I found a fix.

Download Ktoonsez's newest kernel and flash it. After that open the bundled app KTweaker and head to the voltages page. Hit the menu button and select "Load Stock Table" then open the menu again and select "Add 25 volts to each step". Hit apply and you should be good to go!

Let me know if this works for you.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starstone2:
Hi,

I just bought a HTC wildfire and install severals apps.

After getting warning internal memory are low, I tried to move some (downloaded)apps to my SD card.

But sadly when I select the apps, "move to sd card"(or "move to phone memory") button are not there??? How come?

I tried installed Android Assistance, none of the apps under Moveable tabs have that function?

help please~!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamgirqazi:
1) your phone in non rooted.

Some apps like Facebook etc dont move to Sdcard. For that you have to increase internal memory by using ext 3 partition of your sdcard.

Put simply, you will need to Root your phone. But before that, do some research if u really want to do it.

Best of luck
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n64gk:
now before you tell me off, I have looked around on the forum and nothing has helped me.

xperia arc s originally running android 4.04

right,

I am fairly new to android rooting etc, and I recently rooted my phone, installed X-Parts then I followed all the instructions and formatted my phone, and then installed cm 10.1 and got error 7, I think it was. so I decided to restore the nandroid backup that X-Parts had done and it completed successfully, so then I clicked restart but it gets stuck at the "Sony" logo but it will still go into fastboot, but windows 8 says it doesn't recognise it, or it wont install or something like that.

thanks for your help

getting a bit worried as this is my phone and it was quite expensive :(

again thanks

because u dont believe what i posted before. and seriously that is very offensive me. im not trolling here and dont worry, u can still enjoy the transparent status bar on my new thread.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Well you made a claim that you did something that was largely thought to not be possible. You provided no support for your claim, just an insulting post to another user who made a legitimate point that he didn't think the mod was possible. You only felt the need to tell that poster he was wrong and offered no proof of such, then you disappeared for 6 days.

Why would anyone give that post the benefit of the doubt? Be insulted all you want. But your original post about this was fairly nasty by just saying "you are wrong". Then no one heard anything from you for 6 days. You cannot deny that looks an awful lot like trolling.

You also kind of made it seem like you personally made the mod, which you didn't. Im sure this wasn't intentional but it still kind of looked that way and some developers get testy about that sort of thing. You even used the actual mod developer's screenshots. When posting links to other people's work please always give the specific person who did the work proper credit so there is no confusion about who's work it is. And begging for thanks in any post like in your other thread is kind of lame. If your post is helpful to people, they will thank you. Begging for thanks kind of defeats the point.

I hope this helps you to become a more constructive member of this community. Thank you for sharing the transparent status bar mod you found!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 0000alex0000:
got the nokia n9 two weeks ago, and i believe i made the right choice: super reliable, super innovative and convenient user experience, many interesting apps developed by nokia, awesome integration between apps, much better multitasking experience than any phone currently available, faster than any dual core (maybe quad core as well) android, and even easier to develop than most android devices. the amount of apps is definitely the weakness of n9 but it basically gets the job done quite well. back to xperia ion, it is definitely the most annoying phone i have ever owned in my life. if sony mobile is not going to improve its shi*ty software builds, then goodbye forever. will come back and take a look after jelly bean is available for the ion though. one more thing, in my opinion, if google isn't changing the whole coding language of android, it won't change its lagdroid nature. Java really shouldn't be used to develop operating systems. project butter brought triple buffering which, yes it makes android much smoother but, drains much more battery while being already battery hungry.

Just a little backstory, I'm currently with T-Mobile right now, about to switch to PlatinumTel which is another T-Mobile MVNO. With T-Mobile in the Miami area, I seem to get really slow internet and this even holds true when I went to Washington D.C. yesterday. It might be the APN I'm using but do you guys use a prepaid service that gives good speeds with a VZW Note II? I would really appreciate the help.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mvsmith07:
It is in bootloader mode at the moment. Have you tried removing the battery, waiting 30 seconds and then putting the battery back on?

Was the XDA working OK before it went into bootloader mode? Have you tried to flash the ROM recently? If nothing is working have you tried a hard reset?

If none of these work perhaps flashing the ROM might be the only solution.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Biso007:
this is XDA device ... so you can't remove the battery (easily at least :) ) ... try the hard reset ... if doesn't work then flash your ROM with any WM2003 ROM from the kitchen but I think you will have to apply the patch for bootloader 5.17 first

I think you are going to have to use the boot loader and an sd card to do this.

down load an .nb1 file and transfer onto an SD card using an SD card reader.

put it in you xda and reboot while holdong down the power button.

That will load a new rom for you.

Odia is known (among other things) for getting EFS folder to work properly by getting the IMEI nunber outta the nv data file, or something.

Is there a link which you can give?

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

No, I am not but this knowledge is new to me I didn't know that efs corruption had a possible recovery(without the backup), the only thing I thought possible for a recovery was overwriting with a efs backup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
No, i've read it somewhere, old posts, pretty old actually.

And this is not about corrupted efs folder, this is for formated efs folder.

Got no idea how he does it, that's why he requires a fee.

Of course, this should be regarded as a last resort, if you suggest this to an user make sure that the user is not constantly trying to PM odia.

He will attend to the matter when he wants, how he wants and if he want to.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Odia could sometimes recover the IMEI/EFS details without any backups, etc, and only sometimes. I don't know how he did it & what cases he could/couldn't. He used to ask for a small donation for same.

I'm not even sure if he still does it, but I occasionally suggest this to people who have no other option. As Gaston said, if you do end up doing it, you contact him once & wait. For as long as it takes. You might be in a hurry to get your phone fixed/worried about it all, he doesn't care (nor should he).
