+1 for the Nexus 4...
[General Questions and Answers] matgallacher:
The Nexus 4 is a great phone, in fact that's what I have myself, but you can't get it on a contract (easily) leaving you with either shelling out the full amount or going choices like the Ace 2 which manufacturers just don't seem to care to care about.

In fact I ended up getting him an HTC 8s on a £15 pm contract. I was more wondering if in general people thought that manufacturers seem to have abandoned this section of the market.

Hello,

Hopefully somebody can help me, the BT turns on after taking/recieving/missed calls. It is annoying. Does anybody know how to stop it? I have tied tuning it off or into discovery mode, but to no help.

Any suggestions anybody? is their a reg hack for it?

Thanks
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] richardracer:
I had the same problem and fixed it by uninstalling bluetooth tools stack. Seems Okfor first hour.

Regards

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TooMuch2AM:
I had the same problem and can confirm removing BT Tools fixed it.

Seems to be an 'undocumented feature'
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
but if the circle (a clock i think) is made white (as in on) then it turns off itself after awhile
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mtbsoft:
It isn't an undocumented feature, it's one of the main features of Pocket Bluetooth Tools! In order to save battery, BT is kept switched off until a call comes in then it comes on (no messing around with the headset profile crap on the today screen). After the call finishes, if the timer is enabled in BPT, it turns BT off after about a minute (configurable in the registry).

Please take the time to read the documentation when installing software.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Rudegar:
i still feel there should be the option to have bluetooth tools installed and not use the timer and still not have it turn bluetooth on when the phone ring
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Carlos:
BT Tools made my headset completely non-functional. I could pair it after installation as instructed, but the phone would not put calls on the headset no matter what. Nice idea, but didn't work for me.

Has anyone actually measured the battery impact of having BT on? On my Ericsson T68 it had a very minimal impact on the battery life.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] surur:
PBTool is wonderful. Before using it, after my first call of the day the xda would not release the connection. This meant it was running the bluetooth at full power continuously, which would drain the battery in about 3 hours, and the battery in the bluetooth headset in about the same time. So completely useless as a PDA.

With PBTools, it now closes the connection by turning bluetooth of a few seconds after the call finishes (Ive set it to 3 seconds in the registry).

It has finally made my headset usable, and for that I thank Towa.

I do wish he has made it more configurable, but at least he made is quite usable by default. Until another programmer comes along and does better, I dont think we have much to complain about.

Surur

Thank you very much, smart ar$e.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mtbsoft:
Hey, you're the one who obviously didn't RTFM. In your case it was an 'undocumented feature' only because you didn't read the documentation! If I'm the smart one...

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkryft:
I would like to think your friend is joking - of course that could be evaluated against your perspective on what kind of friend that particular person is. The only other thing I'd say is if you have a concern for the exterior of your phone's case, you probably should do something about that sooner than later, otherwise accept the fact that your phone is going to get smudged, scratched, have some dings on the casing, etc, etc. Of course, for me personally, you'd have better chances of me handing you my social security card before I'd even let you touch my phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] skuddy:
LOL quoted for truth.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Biofall:
I'm irritated by this post.

Glass is glass. Other glass (sand especially) scratches it easily if in contact with slight pressure. I get micro and surface scratches ALL THE TIME without screen protectors, and I can't think of a more likely place than the surface of a restaurant table.. Sigh
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] felacio:
Ok... did you read it? I wasn't saying sand DOESN'T scratch the screen. I said how often does your phone come in contact with sand while on a table.

Anyway. Again. I've never had a phone get a scratched screen. So, apparently, my method works. *shrug*

Not trying to convert people, I just know plastic and aluminum will scratch easier than the glass.

I need a help with my nexus 4, I had a rooted rom in my nexus 4 with clockwork mode recovery, I tried to wipe my data through clockwork mode but by mistake I did system wipe. Now there is no rom in the device, I can only access to fastboot mode and clockwork recovery mode, also I tried to install rom through toolkit but my PC & Mac doesn't read any device connected and no device shown in device manger in my windows 7 with using different usb cables and ports. I installed samsung drivers and adb drivers but still I cannot see the device in device manager.

Please if any body can help me to install rom back to my device.:crying:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
In cwm there should be an option to mount the device as usb storage. Try that. It should let you plug the phone into the pc and simply copy the zip onto the phones internal sd.

If thats not working try this to set up the drivers. Then plug the phone in and boot into the bootloader/fastboot mode. The open command prompt and cd to the android-sdk/platform-tools directory. Then run the following command:

adb push /path/to/rom/on/pc/ /mnt/sdcard/

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Download any ROM and do the following:

1. Connect phone to PC when in fastboot

2. Install drivers (if required)

3. Flash latest version of CWM using fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img

4. Reboot phone into fastboot using fastboot reboot-bootloader

5. Boot into CWM

6. Install drivers (if required)

7. Select 'Install via sideload'

8. Flash ROM using adb sideload name_of_rom.zip

9. Follow instructions in CWM

If that still doesn't work, go back to stock using this guide (and read ALL of it):

It's not that it's not showing, it might already be installed correctly. When you have the Nexus 4 connect in fastboot it will show in Device Manager as 'Android Bootloader Interface' under the heading of 'Android Phone (see attached)

I attempted to use this ROM: [4.2.2][OFFICIAL] LiquidSmooth v2.3 - d2vzw|d2usc - 05|04|13

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2148261

Summary:

The android phone process crashed whenever I would try to make a phone call.

The Wifi Tether did not work. It would fail to start the Access Point (AP).

Specifics:

com.android.phone process kept crashing while making calls. It would ring, crash, then disconnect the call.

Wifi tether would not work with the Wifi Tether TrevE Mod - WifiTether-TrevE_Mod_11_22_2012_driverReload2

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1988735

My wifi tether settings were:

Galaxy S3 - Netd-ndc with driver reload

-Device-Profile: Leave this on auto (default)

-Netdndc Max Client Cmd: Required for GS3ish devices. If not enabled you will likely get an AP but cannot connect.

-MSS clamping: on (default)

-Routing fix: on (default)

The wifi tether application would fail to start the Access Point (AP). I was indeed using SuperSU which I had to install manually since LiquidSmooth comes with SuperUser by default.

I recently updated my modem and rpm to:

Baseband version: I535VRMBM1

This modem update was done after checking to see if the Wifi Tether would work but before I had tested the phone calling function.

If there is anymore information that would be useful let me know and I will update.

Thanks everyone!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Is your " auto sync app data" box checked ?

Open your phone dialer application, and go into your settings within the app. It's under "accounts". And verify the box check. Its under your email address.

The auto sync interval is controlled by the general settings of the device I believe.....g

Edit: The auto sync controls all information being synced to your contacts and of course the opposite holds true....g

anyone have any idea about what happened or how to recover it?

I was able to de-brick it (couldnt use "short 29-30 pins" thing, chips had a metal cover over them soldered to mainboard, I used reset button with volume buttons, I pushed them like crazy alot of times and somehow got rockchip usb flash state for once then re-flashed stock rom (I had rom-dump files and original "update.img"), it is working now with stock rom.

continued as follows:

1) Tried alot of other roms from similar tablets, some just stays at android screen, some works with corrupt graphics, etc

2) Oma_Odys_Loox_JB_CM10_4.1.2_v1.2 = killed the tab, debricked by luck

3) Oma_Odys_Loox_JB_4.1.1_v1.2.1a (with Oma_extSD_to_NAND_OTG_fix) = works till welcome screen, but touchpad not working so i couldnt check the system further more

4) Oma - Odys Loox GB 2.3.1 v1.3a = touchpad not working, and graphics weird (low color depth+some minor glitches on image), just waiting at main screen cause of touchpad, adb shell works (with root)

5) flashed original kernel over Oma - Odys Loox GB 2.3.1 v1.3a, screen resolution, color depth fine now, touchpad working too, but have problem with sensor, left-right or up-down shifted up to tablet position, trying to fix it

6) activated "ro.sf.hwrotation=270" in build.prop, sensor fine now. Only problem left is touch screen Y axis inverted

7) still working on Y axis issue, but weird thing is calibration works correctly, no inverted axis! and succesfull. but then I have to click upside for something downside or downside for something upside.

8) darn. it is not up or down. it becomes left or right if flip tablet to 1 side.

9) i decided that problem is about touch-driver and i dont have enough knowledge to fix it. left over tablet with factory rom, working but ehhh.
