[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aanonymoushuman:
True story, was working out at the gym and had no case on my Nexus 4. Was being really stupid and decided to put it on a curved 6 ft surface of a weight machine. Seconds later I see my phone dropping face down on the carpet floor. Back in the days of galaxy s I could do that as many times as I wanted and nothing would have happened. So there is my nexus 4 only 5 weeks old lying on its screen down after it fell 6 ft. I turn it over - the screen was all in pieces. I replaced the screen my self for about $100. And bought a case immediately. Now I am using a T-Mobile black case. And actually like it a lot (although it was $25) but I needed a case immediately , didn't want to take another chance. The case it self has a lip and adds A LOT of grip to the phone making sure it won't fall out of your hand. It is also very clean and has nothing written on it. I have dropped my nexus from about 4 ft with the case on, and also face down on concrete and absolutely nothing happened. So remember guys, it is a piece of glass you need a case no matter what!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandezhjr:
Just dropped mine today in the garage. Had it laying on a picnic table with the cable and charger plugged into it, of which I was holding the plug end in my hand. As I reached with my other hand for a nearby extension cord to use as a power source, I reached too far and pulled it right off of the table. It dropped about 2 1/2 feet onto the bare concrete floor. Fortunately, I have an oem bumper on it and that saved it from any damage. I know it initially landed on it's side because the bumper now has some scratches on the metal looking part on the volume rocker side.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PR0XiMA:
I dropped mine at YoSushi at Heathrow in Febuary. It dropped from approx. 120-135cm and landed on concrete on its back. I had only owned it for about 2 weeks, so I was very scared to pick it up. It survived! :eek:

No case or anything, completely naked! I only got a few deep scratches on the back and some on the front. They don't bother too much as I don't see the one on the back because I have a CruzerLite Bugdroid case.

My N4 is not bricked, hopefully it will stay like that for a while...

xperia go doesn't have removable battery. pressing vol up and power button will reboot it and if you press a little bit more time the same buttons you will turn it off. I have had similar problems, I have always fixed it with .184 firmware. Try different flashes, unmarking some boxes (in flashtool) for example unmark. all wipes and only keep exclude kernel an so... I have unbriked my phone that way.

Could be a broken ftf file. Try downloading it again and reflash. Check all wipes and uncheck all excludes.

[Nexus 7 General] tabuser:
A good number of interesting upgrades and enhancements were announced at the opening day of the Google I/O conference, but I am very surprised how wrong the Technology press was with their predictions regarding 2nd gen Nexus 7, Babel, Android 4.3, etc.

Additional announcements are possible, but I doubt it.

Maybe these reporters/bloggers just make stuff up to drive traffic to their sites to bump up ad revenue.

Who ever these tech reporters were getting their info from must have zero cred now. I guess its time for them to cultivate new sources.
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
No maybe about it. Very little you read on the internet has any basis on reality. I feel sorry for those that believe it.

I don't know, the leaks surrounding the iPhone 5 were for the most part pretty bang on. Same with other Apple products, and they are known for their secrecy. I agree that the rumors were way off, even considering that they were just...well...rumors. Maybe 4.3 is coming soon, who knows...

Sent from XDA app
[Nexus 7 General] DrewReaLee:
Uhhh no, the first rumors for the iPhone 5 were way off. The iPhone 5 was supposed to have a totally revamped design with a larger screen and a rounder design. Instead we got the iPhone 4S which looked exactly like the iPhone 4 and it wasn't until next year that the iPhone 5 came out.
[Nexus 7 General] Acela1230:
I think Apple leaks a lot of their stuff out so people aren't disappointed which would cause their stock price to go down. I think Google's stock price is actually based in reality and not speculation like Apples (this is why Apple's dropped 50% in the last couple months).

An upgraded Nexus 7 was impractical I think just from a cost benefit perspective. I don't think there was any chance of KLP coming out when a lot of people just got JB upgrades.

I do like a lot of the developer stuff that was announced. I am so happy that there is now a way to beta and alpha test apps and app updates both from a dev and user perspective.
[Nexus 7 General] gc84245:
You can't really compare "early" leaks of the iPhone to leaks just days before Google I/O. By the time the iPhone was released, the tech sites had the iPhone 5 pegged.

[Nexus 7 General] Dark Jedi:
Who knows if the sites got bad Intel or made stuff up to get hits or maybe they was right but Google ran in to snags and the stuff wasn't ready and they didn't want to release stuff that wasn't ready yet. In the end it doesn't really matter and like they say if you want to know the truth get it from the horses mouth. You can tell Google has something planned when they phased out the 16 gig nexus. It was like when they phased out the 8 gig version when the 32 gig came out. I hope they come out with a CDMA version of the nexus 4. I know its a pipe dream after what Verizon did to the galaxy nexus. Its interesting to see what Google has planned for the near future.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TStorm16:
What can I do to reset the whole phone?

I tried many many ROMs from here since the last 10 months.

But now I would like to start from scratch with a new clean phone.

There are so much old files, unused directories and so on.

The last directory named "0" is the the tip of the iceberg. In that directory is my whole android system, but also one directory level up is an android system from the last install. ???

So really want to get rid of all files.

The factory reset doesn't helped.

A full wipe from another rom also didn't clean my internal card.

In Windows I can't format C: while I'm running the system nor delete the windows directory so I don't think that this is possible with an active phone.

Can I clean/format it with Odin?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
You can do a simple factory reset or use mega wipe. But be careful, it will erase anything, only leaves your external sd, hence have a flashable rom there.

You can find it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1832326

Many thanks!

I tried "MegaWipe" and it works perfect.

Finally after months I have no lags no errors nothing what makes me angry with my phone.

Hi,

From where should I get the original peggle apk file which was on X10 mini stock rom? I flashed the miniCM7 and haven't made a backup of stock ROM.

I can find apk on the internet. But I am looking for a stock eclair version.

Maybe it is possible to extract from stock rom without flashing the rom?

It is possible. I'll give you a link once I've found & uploaded it.

Hi all,

I was hoping someone could shed sime light to my situation. I have a rogers S4 and I rooted it via motochopper and it worked fine. Restored all my apps from Titanium backuoband all was well.

This morning my phone then got stuck at the samsung boot screen and I had to wipe data via the stock recovery to get iy working again...

Can anyone tell me why this is happening? This is thr 3rd time this has happened
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] linkin275:
My guess would be the titanium backup. As it can mess things up, once in a while.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] CZ Eddie:
I would blame TB mess ups more on old data being restored that causes problems, than TB itself.

OP... Are your app backups from a different ROM? If so, then I would try restoring without data. Or fresh app installs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Buddyjohn:
are you restoring system apps? or just user apps? if you are restoring system apps or something like the messaging storage, will normally cause problems in TB.

best to just connect to wifi and download all the apps again from playstore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] AxAtAx:
What I would do is odin back to stock do not restore anything for a day or 2, and monitor it. If it never does it again, then it was your backup, keep in mind some apps that worked on the G3, may not work on the G4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] polish_pat:
Yes, this is Titanium, it happenned to me too, remember that doing that is like copying everything in the C: Program Files of a PC, formating the computer and restoring that folder, it might work, but you might end up in a lot of trouble overtime since the OS installs different part everywhere. Use Carbon aka Helium, its a much cleaner way to go

[Motorola Droid X2] iceolate:
Hello, I have a major problem with something that should have been a minor project. I used System Recovery to do a backup of the phone. The only thing I can think of there that I might have done differently is save the backup to the external SD card, instead of internal. After the backup completed, I went to reboot the phone and it's stuck on the Motorola splash screen. I tried to pull the battery and go into that general Android Recovery in order to wipe data and try again, but I just get the Android with an exclamation point over his head. I've tried booting it without the SD card too. I was using CM7

Can anyone help please!

EDIT: A couple hours later, since it was my work phone, I had to do something. I reverted the SBF, re-rooted and tried to restore from the backup I made and the same thing happened. I'm going to try to revert to my previous backup. I have a full backup from Titanium Backup if it comes down to it. The phone was working fine, I just can't figure out why it blew up on me after I ran the backup. Grr..
[Motorola Droid X2] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
sounds like a bad backup. i always use external sd for nandroids and it has never had issues.i would just re-flash. as for stock recovery with andy with an exclamation , push both volume keys. should work regardless of what state the phone is in. i have had it completely unusable and it still worked.
[Motorola Droid X2] iceolate:
OK - You mean to flash cleanly with CM7 and then restore from Titanium backup instead of my previous nandroid backup?

I'm slightly confused about that System Recovery tool, because first I had ROM Manager and it says that CWM is installed, but it doesn't work. Do I have to manually install that System Recovery APK each time I do stuff like this, or does it stay installed? And if so, from a powered off state, how do you enter it? Or do you have to boot up to Android and enter recovery mode from the app? Thanks.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lorenzo VonMatterhorn:
yes i would try that. second, dont use rom manager. dont delete it either. but it doesnt work on our phone. the bootstrap recovery that you install would only need to be reinstalled if you delete cache in recovery. otherwise it should always work. hope this helps. im not completely sure exactly what you are asking. :cowboy:
[Motorola Droid X2] sd_shadow:
try just restoring system part of backup, see if phone will boot, then restore user data

or reinstall cm7 and restore just user data
[Motorola Droid X2] iceolate:
I should be fine now, thanks for the advice. I don't know why that backup blew up the phone, but it was sure an inconvenience haha! I just reflashed CM completely, and now I'm gonna roll out my Titanium backup. I don't have a lot of stuff, just the essential stuff for work, so it shouldn't take too long.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingpinZero:
Guys im in the middle of upgrading my trusty Note 2 (a friend needed a new phone, so he offered me a good price for my N2).

Lately i didnt used the Spen alot, basically never, so ive come to realize that probably i will not miss it, not the bigger screen.

Ive played a bit with the official model here in italy, which is the Snapdragon version, and since i can get the Octa from uk at the same price, i was wondering what i have to choose.

My needs are:

- Im a junior coder, currently working on a few emulators for myself. As many knows, emulators need cpu power, raw processing, more than gpu. Note 2 was awesome once clocked to 1.8 (thanks AndreiLux for your awesome Perseus!).

Snapdragon sure its fast, but i feel its not the speed bump i excpected from the Exynos 4 (i know its still faster, but if you get what i mean).

Im positive that the Octa is what it suits my needs...but this drives me to the second question:

- is overheating that bad, to the point the phone engages a thermal throttling? Or it just becomes hot, but retains the same performance? Does the Octa suffer from the same overheating issues that Snapdragon has?

- Battery will not be like the note 2, i know that, but since i work 12 hours a day and most of the times my phone sits untouched in my personal cabinet i doubt it will create a problem...

If someone can help me deciding i appreciate that. Im aware that Note 3 will come out in next months, but problem is that i need a phone now, cant really wait.

Thanks to all!

Apologies, I didn't mean to sound harsh but there have been quite a few of these threads. That one probably had answers to all your questions in it if you have a quick read through.

For what it's worth, when you look at the advantages and disadvantages of each handset, I don't believe it's worth the reduction in support you will have after having to import the I9500. As I have said already in other threads, any performance gains you will get from the Exynos model will not be noticeable in real world terms.

hi all

i activated setting "lock all buttons except power button" to avoid unmotivated touching buttons when the device is in my pocket.

but there is one problem: i drive my car to the garage, where is NO gsm reception. suddenly the mda turn ON in my pocket. then i take it out and turn it OFF again.

as soon as i leave the garage and reception is back, the mda turns on AGAIN.

that REALLY SUCKS.

do you know any registry hack to avoid this? or any other cure??

thanks in advance.

I don't have an answer to that specific question. I can tell you there is a registry hack, recently posted, that will make the device go back to sleep more quickly when it wakes up for a system event. I have mine set to 35 seconds, which is very useful.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mindracing:
Izeman,

Do you have Sprite back-up installed?

I have found a problem. With Sprite back-up installed and battery monitoring and schedule back up on, my XDA II just sits on my desk and doesn't turn itself on unless I need it to. I have no reception at my desk.

If I take the XDA II out in the car it will periodicaaly and randomly turn itself on and go off after the time I have set in power options. If I turn off battery monitoring and scheduled back up in Sprite back-up this doesn't happen.

There awas an issue with Sprite back-up and the XDA which was fixed that produced similar results.

Now it seems to only have this problem as it gains and loses signal.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] glibe:
Thank you very much mindracing !
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mindracing:
Glibe,

Does this mean that you had the same problem?

If so, can you post a question at the sprite software support page? You can register and ask questions there and the response is much quicker than the sprite forum.

The more instaces of this that get reported the more likely it is that it will get fixed.

Sprite bac-up really is excellent - apart from this problem.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] izeman:
yes. i have sprite backup 3 installed. but doesn't seem to be the problem.

my problem is reproduceably the lost GSM signal. as long as there is reception the mda stays off. when i enter the garage it takes some time untill the mda recognizes it got no reception and turns itself on. you could imagine how much fun it is having the mda dial some numbers while being in your backpocket of your trousers. :(

it was not once that i incidentally called the last caller again just because of buttons getting pressed because of this self-turning-on stupidity.

i have NO idea what this feature shoudl be for.... if you find an answer pls tell me just for my internal peace. ;)
