Read Privacy Policy ...

Would you happen to know any details about there acceptable and Privacy policy. This is the big thing with cloud storage.Putting your data on someones cloud . Say like Box.. Is You are giving them Your data. Sugar shack is the worse.. They say your data on there service belongs to them... Similar to facebook.. .

Just cloud . and Drop box is the only one that say they will NOT Use your data in any way.. I did find a solution to all of this cloud data issue.

Its called Synology Disk Station and a 12.00 a year domain name at Go-Daddy where they allowed dns services. I love my Disk Station because my data is my data on my Computer in my Home. The Disk Station has 4 Hard drives. Mine i have 3 4 tb drives on raid 5 so it gives me 8 tb storage. about 500.00 .

If the above it to expensive check out POLKAST .. good solution to host from your computer....without a Dedicated server.

Anyway did not mean to hi jack you thread. Its just people sign up for these online storage and do NOT Understand how much they are compromising there Data and Privacy..

Good Luck..

Just want to update what i said above Drop box and Just cloud are the only ones that i am aware of that do not take owner ship of your data. I am sure there are other good services out there as well .I got pm after posting this from a online cloud storage employee Stating they do not control no user data...

I just sign up and read the privacy policy and It seems legit imo. I didn't see any indication of them claiming your content like google services do.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] erica_renee:
YES Seems Open terms policy.and acceptable

Actually after my post i got a private message from someone who works there.And assured me the same. I also was curious since i did start the whole check them out thing.. I Too would agree with you. But as above i will Keep my data on my Disk Station

unlocked bootloader + rooted.

Hi. Just recently flashed ParanoidAndroid 3+ on my phone. But I am having some issues with it. The biggest issue was It seems I can't access to HYBRID SETTINGS. When I tried to apply some settings, it says reboot, I reboot, after reboot, nothing changes, nothing happened. I wanted to change the size/resolution because its too small but its not working. I am having a hard time hitting the options due to small fonts/resolution. 2nd issue was I can't send SMS because it says service not available.. What's wrong with my phone?:s Did I do something wrong upon installation with ParanoidAndroid?

Here are some screenshots of what I have been takling about:

it is not what i expect to look like. As you can see only the PA colors has a description.

see?its too small.

As you can see, the size setting is set to 0. which is too small. when i try to move the button to right to change size, it won't move :/

the system says, cant send SMS due to unavailable service..

I really hope someone would help me because Iwould really like to use ParanoidAndroid for my device :crying:

I really like the look of the stock sense calendar. I find it better than the stock google calendar. I want to perhaps try shifting to non sense roms, such as CM when the nightlies become enough for a daily driver.

With that said, can I extract the calendar app and just reload it on the non-sense rom or will some tinkering have to be done with it ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syaoran68:
nope. all HTC apps require the sense framework to operate. you want sense stuff you gotta be on sense roms.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeggen:
I was looking at my storage space on my internal sdcard to free up some space and I noticed the sdcard/cloudagent folder is taking up about 2Gb of space on my system. Browsing the folder makes it clear that it's my Dropbox content and all of the file space is in flat files (e.g. no subdirectories) under thumbnails. I looked in the Dropbox app and it says it is using 1.7Mb of space, clearly not correlated. Does anyone know what app uses this clouddata folder on the internal SDCard
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeggen:
Figured this out. It is from Dropbox but from setting it up under settings -> cloud instead of in the Dropbox app. Removed this and setup account in Dropbox and regained about 2gb of internal storage!

android version: 4.1.2

build: 11.2.A.0.21

Questions:

1.Is there a step by step guide on how to install the ROM correctly?

2. Is there a required kernel or anything to make the ROM work properly on my device?

Thanks A lot! :fingers-crossed:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zyquil:
Hello y'all, I've been having a hard time trying to choose an Android phone. I've used some before, but this would be my first Android phone.

My budget is capped up to $170 (Yeah, really tight)

Phones I've been looking at are:

HTC Desire C

LG Optimus L5 E610

Sony Xperia E

Alcatel One Touch X'Pop

If there are other phones within the range, I'd appreciate that.

I'm not the type to take a lot of pictures, probably occasionally but not much. I'll mostly be playing games or reading e-books on it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgrmobi:
I think that Sony Xperia E is the best choice for this amount of money. It has best CPU and 4GB of memory.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zyquil:
I see. I'll check on that phone around local stores here.

Oh and also are there phones on par with those 3 within the $170 budget?

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zyquil:
Just looked at the Alcatel One Touch X'Pop (Alcatel Sapphire 2 here), and the specs are pretty convincing. It's around $169.87(converted to USD) here. Has anyone bought the phone? If it isn't that bad, I'll go with it instead of the Xperia E. If not, then the Xperia E is what I'm still getting.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
I think the Alcatel is much better than others, since it have a big screen with good resolution (4.5'', 540x960pix). Its chipset (MTK6577)... well... isn't impressive despite its 2 cores, but also is much better than others.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDreamOn:
RE: [Q] Which phone to choose?#

If you're only buying it sim-free (which I assume you are, cause those phones aren't high end) then why don't you try second hand/ refurbished even better. I got my Desire Z for £40, and for $170 (~£85) you could do much better.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zyquil:
Well, I'll be getting that one then.

How good is a refurbished phone? For that price I could probably get a second hand phone with better specs, but I fear that the previous owner may have mishandled it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDreamOn:
A refurbished phone is a better option, because it means that, in the worse case, it had a defect but is now fixed, so should be like new. The packaging could possibly be damaged. BEWARE only buy grade A refurbished products, on eBay for example some are listed as B or C and these really aren't very good. You could try second hand, it's a bit risky though, my Desire Z is knackered (far worse than if I would've treated it) but it did mean I got it really cheap. Also it's slightly risky 'cause someone could run off with your money and then block the IMEI. So it's basically a balance of risk. Refurbished should be cheaper and good quality though, second hand is far riskier.

Such as what happen to the S3

smartphones.wonderhowto.com/how-to/switch-internal-and-external-memory-samsung-galaxy-s3-and-note-2-0141381/

I'm on verizon . .. I'm starting to regret being with them because they're so slow at everything. I have to wait 1 month(Now 3weeks) until we can play with the new device while all others have it. But anyways, I was wondering when I did get it if there was an option for this because I had a razr maxx and bought a 64gb sdcard and was hoping since verizon being slow with not saying anything about a 32gb and at&t already has one, If I could turn my phone into a 64gb via root.

Thanks!

Guys i have flashed my arc s with many custom roms and i flashed basebands and kernels and all such stuffs.

I wanted to know now if i want to make my phone back to like it was out of box, should i just flash the firmware via flashtools?

Will everything be same like new? (Baseband, Kernel)

Wifi, 3g etc everything will be normal like before just by flashing a official generic rom (Not to flash baseband or kernel or so?)

Thank you :)
[Xperia Arc General] popthosegaskets:
If your bootloader is locked, you can use Sony Update Service.

If bootloader is unlocked, you cannot use the Update Service, you would only have Flashtool left to flash a stock ROM on your phone.

[Xperia Arc General] badboyofpersia:
thnx for the reply.

so i just have to flash the official rom. thats it. right?

no need to flash kernel and baseband again? (i feel it comes in the rom itself, am i right?)
[Xperia Arc General] neverhave2worry:
Yes

Yes, official ftf files includes kernel and basebands.
[Xperia Arc General] badboyofpersia:
thnx alot for clearin the doubt :victory::victory:
[Xperia Arc General] Someguyfromhell:
You can also relock bootloader with Flashtool and then use Sony Update Service to fully restore.
[Xperia Arc General] popthosegaskets:
But why you want to lock bootloader with Flashtool and recover with Sony Update Service when you can recover with Flashtool alone?

Why not trial using their free trial period... Since your company paid for the XDA2s I am hoping they can pay for the useful software that you may put on them too. Software piracy is not looked upon lightly on this forum.

I was not aware that there was a trial version - and I certainly wasn't condoning piracy. I just thought it would be a way of sussing out whether it was the right product for the company.

Molten

I'm using Molten 2.3 Redux because I think it is very stable, everything works.
[Motorola Droid X2] JetOhmNet:
I'll start, haha. I used to use CM7, but when I got a hankering for something a little updated, I switched to CM10. 7 was quite a bit quicker, but 10 makes up for it with JB. I've tried out the other big gingerbread ones (molten, liberty) and ics roms (cm9, pa) but I really like cm10 as my daily now. Anyway, theres my spiel. If you have any questions I'm still on the dx2 and I'd like to connect with the few users still out there.
[Motorola Droid X2] jmsfang:
I just replaced my x2 with a gnexus (woo cheap new old phones). Used a bunch of roms, from eclipse 1.1 to 2.3 to cm7 9 and 10. Currently I'm on Liberty because it seems like the fastest stable phone (which is what I want from my soon to be backup phone). Overall though, I'd say my go to ROM is cm7. It's stable enough and is still full of features. cm9 and 10 are amazing glimpses into ics and jb but it honestly is just too slow/full of problems that I can't stomach it.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
if there was some solution to the phone call issue (losing audio/call after proximity sensor turns screen off), i would have stayed on cm10 as well. i use cm9 instead because of battery life (being about twice as long as cm10) and the issue i just mentioned. i also like to use chrome, and falcon pro. besides those, i dont use many apps, so cm9 is pretty stable for me. occasionally , it will reboot when overloaded. but that is not more than once every couple days. not to mention the reboot thing has been an issue on every rom i have ever tried on this phone. including all of the GB ones. :silly:

honsestly, regardless of what rom you are using, this phone runs SO SO / kinda crappy at best. it is just lacking hardware wise, which is why it will never see an update, and for the most part developers have abandoned it. it was fun while it lasted though. it wasnt a horrible enough experience to turn me away from android. but god has it been dissapointing. :eek:

Hello, please follow these steps one by one to check your screen whether exists slight flicker problem.

1 close power saver mode and turn off the auto brightness feature.

2 set your brightness to 48% or 50% (this is a common place, you need to check it between 40%~50% brightness)

3 open the message interface, and pay more attention to your screen more carefully.

I have already ask a lot of peoples who have own new HTC One.

this problem is very common, therefore, I connect to the HTC to verify this problem reason.

Did you have any suggestion about this problem?

By the way, if you not set this brightness value, you will not see any flicker on your screen.

---------- Post added at 04:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------

Playing around a bit more (on stock), it seems that if I have it set to automatic brightness, the flicker happens on the transition between different brightness levels. Once it has settled on a level there is no flicker. I wonder if the problem I was seeing on CM is more to do with the sensitivity settings for the light sensor.
