99% alcochol, sink it for an hour.

Before you do that, try with another battery.

Never try to turn a device on after contact with water, you need to rice it up for a couple of days.

How much time do I have to do this? It's a holiday in my country today, won't be able to get it at least until thursday.

Right now the phone is in a bowl of rice as suggested somewhere around here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Alright, that's what I meant by "rice it up".

Now, 99% alcohol removes all the river dirt, you can get it in a drug store easily. I'm sure there's one open where you live, people may need sh!t even on holidays.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ealush:
Oh, OK. Thanks.

They probably do have one open, but I just googled it. I won't find it there, local FDA limits alcohol sales to 70% and less :( Will have to look in a chemicals supply store on thursday when they open.

Thanks again for your help. Other than the two things you mentioned above - is there anything else I can do?

*Just out of pure curiosity, does the fact that the buttons next to the home button light up have anything to do with the solution? Does this usually happen?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
It's about shorts and corrosion, dont turn on the device just yet. And get that 99% alcohol; ask around, who knows:

"hey, how you doin'? Family alright? Good. Listen, do you have 99% alcohol by any chance?"

So I recently changed over to the nexus 4, and I say, it is AMAZING. I just got to the point where the SGS just didnt cut it anymore. It has hung in there for a long time, but its starting to become under-powered for new versions of Android.

So in this guide, I am going to show you how to speed up your Galaxy S, and push it to its max performance.

You will need a custom kernel like Semaphore. I made this guide with no regard to battery life, but i did avoid using un-necessary power.

1. Live OC

2. CPU Clock Speed / Governor

3. RAM settings / management.

4. CM Performance Settings.

5. Animation Scales (not necessary)

Questions? Feel free.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yakir985:
But OC my phone will make my phone die faster yea?

Because I afraid to destroyed my phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlwaysDroid:
It does reduce life for sure. As does live OC.

I over clocked my phone for a long time, and it has had no bad effects. It works great to this day. It reduces, but not significantly that you should worry about.

Most CPUS are designed to last for 10+ years, and you may take a year or two off. Nothing major!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darkknigh_t:

I use this method and it works just fine. You do have to be rooted however to do this. "Quick tip though. Make sure you back up SecEmail_J.apk and SecExchange_J.apk from \system\app before doing this. If not you will not be able to apply OTA if you wanted to without replacing them.

It's not too hard to do. Try to follow these steps:

First turn on usb debugging under developer options.

Unzip the folder

I then opened command prompt and navigated to the directory where you unzipped the content.

run the command apply-patch.bat and then accept the message on the phone screen

Where it states it cannot find the email APK type in SecEmail_J.apk as the name

Let it run and it will complete and reboot.

All done!

I flashed this zip to get 4.2 camera onto stock HTC One rom.

It installs fine and the camera and gallery apps come up perfectly fine. The photosphere viewer works and so does photosphere itself, but the sphere and panorama focus is off. When using regular camera or video mode the camera can focus very cleanly, but when using photosphere or panorama the camera is incapable of focusing. Has anyone else tried this? Any suggestions? Thanks.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Tower1972:
When I had my nexus I used it to take a few panorama shots..They never seemed to come out good when they rendered into the "sphere"...like the camera snapped the photos too soon and things would overlap
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] uacvax:
I have a Nexus 4 too so I know what you mean on that, but the quality coming off the HTC One is significantly degraded and unfocused. It is almost like there is something wrong with the app's compatibility with the HTC One camera or something I'm guessing.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Tower1972:
The stock one that comes built into the phone works a hell of alot better then the 4.2 panorama did..well for me anyway..Come to think of it I think I was still on a version of 4.1 when I installed it first..I never did try it once I upgraded to Bamf 4.2.2, since I sold the phone a few weeks after :(
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] uacvax:
anyone any ideas please? thx
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Robsa:
I read somewhere that HTC pulled photosphere from the 4.2.2 update, which pretty much says it doesn't work yet on the HTC One. I haven't made or seen a single good Photoshphere from the one where the Galaxy S3 will make lovely ones. I'm sure HTC may sort this out eventually.... Android 4.3 maybe?

Yes. It will not boot since your P769 has a locked bootloader. You can unlock the bootloader using the tutorial we have here, but I am not sure if the P768 ROM will work on it.

I 've got an s3 running synergy rom with tweaks and I have enabled air gestures for my default musicplayer to make it like an s4 and have it rooted as well. Ive got cwm and mobodin and I wanted to put the s4 music player on my s3 so I downloaded the zip and flashed it and wiped my dalvin cache and rebooted and it's downloaded on my external micro sd. It booted up fine and the new music player showed so I tried it out but it started freezing and unexpectedly crashing. It said it was playing a song but it wouldn't and then it would crash. It also said no music files at one time so I tried some other thiings like retrying to wipe/clear dalvin cache but It still crashed. Then I said screw it and downloaded a port of the s3 music player but now that .didn't install. I have a flashed backup recovery but I would really prefer the s4 music player. Should i rename my rop.build.prop to something else? Ive tried renaming it to the s4 model but still nothing. Is there anything I can do? Please some suggestions. I'm very tech savy and wwork at a computer repair shop and am no noob so any advice would help.

I only have mac at home and by the time I did not partition with bootcamp where to run win.

Given that there is also VirtualBox for OSX, I've tried. :fingers-crossed:

Worked on the first try, on a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion 10.8.3 (64). :good:

The wifi connection, I did it with the router, not with the airport of mpb.

The key combinations ctrl + I and ctrl + s on mac do not work, of course.

But solve everything on the menu of virtualbox.

When the VM asks you to connect the razr, ye have already connected, but not

sees it in reality. Even if pressed repeatedly on enter, stops

to *daemon starter successfully * . Simply disconnect and reconnect.

Root on the Razr XT910 with Jelly Beam EU. Both Root Checker that Supersu work and by the time

I flashed Paranoid Android 3 and kept that same kernel for awhile. I tried to branch out and try other kernels such as "Franco" and "AK Rubik", and am displeased with both (most likely because I don't know what I'm doing). How do I get back to the kernel Paranoid Android 3 had?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Osyris214:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Just flash the ROM again. It should give you the kernel that comes with it.

EDIT: Just to clarify...boot into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik (just to be safe), flash PA, reboot. You MIGHT need to flash gapps again. I dont know how PA works. Might as well flash them too just in case. You shouldnt lose anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Osyris214:
Thankyou! I thought I'd mess it up again if I reflashed it. Do you think I should factory reset the phone just in case the other Kernels didnt leave anything on the phone. (Also, should I delete the kernels if I'm not going to use them?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsgraphicart:
Nah. You should be fine. When you flash a ROM, it usually replaces what needs to be replaced. Unless you start seeing issues down the line, I wouldnt worry about it. And no need to keep the kernel files on your phone if you arent going to use them.
[HTC One X] theDroidfanatic:
Hey :)

So I just damaged my phone, with some water, though it was not much, and not at all submerged or anything.

At first, my screen flickered, but after a while it just died, and now it doesn't charge or anything either.

Anyways, i'm put it in rice in the hopes that it may be working by tomorrow, but for the time being, I would like to know, that if I was to send it in for warranty, is there a water damage indicator?

I saw this thread, but I can't seem to find that strip, I assume because that is the AT&T/Telstra version, where as mine is the International Unlocked One (S720e)

Bottom line, is there a water damage indicator on the One X? If yes, where is it? And is it triggered by the slightest of moistures, or only if the phone is completely submerged?

Would really appreciate an answer, Thanks in advance :)

Cheers
[HTC One X] nor1982:
There is no water damage lable. We call them LDI, but if there is liquid on your pcb it will be found.

[HTC One X] nor1982:
Sorry LDI is short for liquid damage indicator and pcb is your mainboard. In short you will not get away with it of you send it in for repair
[HTC One X] theDroidfanatic:
But the thing is, I put it in rice, so the moisture or water will be gone, but I'm afraid the battery might be shorted, so if there's no moisture, there is a chance they'll repair it?

And also, there is no LDI in the ONe X?

Mine had some water on it a couple of months ago, but now the camera has stopped working, (its all green and flickering)

Is there anny way to force them into fixing my phone?
[HTC One X] athulele:
Give them money!!

Seriously, if they know it's damaged by water then there's no way to force them to fix under warranty .
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
A water damaged phone is always considered beyond economical repair as any and most likely all the parts would need replacing.

Basically it costs more to repair it than it would cost to buy a new phone.. So they don't bother with water damaged stuff. Best way, is if you do damage with liquid, to turn it off immediately and remove battery for at least 24 hours and preferably more whilst it dries (in rice etc or a specialised phone drying bag, you can easily find these online)

But generally, if you try to use it whilst wet it's gonna be short circuiting everything and breaking a lot of things (some permanently and some only until it's dry) which is the mistake most people make.
