OP, how is the kickstand stability? Can you tap at the screen without the phone tipping over? In both horizontal and landscape modes?

Maybe he doesn't have a camera, or the time to deal with taking pics.

[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
I'm taking a complete shot in the dark here.....but check to make sure your Wifi region is properly selected.

Go to settings>wifi>hit menu button>select advanced>wifi region code

Pick your country from that list.

If you flashed the RUU for the country you live it that SHOULD be correct already. But it won't hurt to check it.
[HTC Sensation] Pommes9485:
I`m having the same problem

I tried many roms now and still - the wifi is unactivatable.

First the problem occurs to me, when i flashed the updates from cm10.1 with the goo mananger and the auto script for flashing.

Bach there, it was easy to solve this problem by wiping cache/dalvik cache and flashing the old version.

Now nothing solves that issue.

My next idea is to restore an older backup, i will give report here...
[HTC Sensation] Kwokinator:
I'm on ARHD 7.2 now, there's no region code selection. In the Advanced menu there's Network Notification, Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep, Best WiFi Performance, MAC address, IP address, DLNA auto-IP.

Both MAC address and IP address shows as Unavailable.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Oh...that's a bummer. I didn't realize Sense based roms didn't have that option.

Try this, just for an experiment. Backup ARHD so you can go back to it. Then do a full wipe, install Albino's 4.2.2 AOSP based CM10.1 ROM. See if the wifi works in that one. If it does't work on boot, then look at the wifi settings where I showed you to see if changing the region code helps. More importantly, check to see what the region code is for you after boot before you change it.

If you can get it working using another ROM entirely, then we'll have at least eliminated hardware as the problem. If you have the exact same problem on a completely different ROM, different version, not sense, etc...then I'd starting leaning toward hardware issues.
[HTC Sensation] Kwokinator:
The phone boots up to MAC address and IP address still unavailable, region code is defaulted to Europe. Changed to Canada, Taiwan, then if I press the back button to go back out, WiFi is still trying to turn on, call up the region code again, it's back to Europe again so changes don't get saved. Then after a few minutes the phone will just reboot by itself, then after it boots up again the outcome is still the same.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
This may sound stupid

But try this

Change the cid to standard one instead of supercid like HTC__001 for eg

Then reflash whatever rom you are using then check wifi

Btw cid changing command

fastboot oem writecid HTC__001

It will be better if you change back to your original cid

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Also try Wifix Manager app if you haven't yet
[HTC Sensation] Kwokinator:
Changed the CID to HTC__001 and flashed the ARHD 7.2 zip again, still no go.

Tried WiFix already, doesn't work either.

Is it a hardware issue?

Hello all sorry for the noob question.

I have an s4 with group play 2.0 and my wife has an s3 with the old group play. Questions

--Is it possible to update the s3 group play to the s4 group play?

(if so does the s3 have to be rooted??)

--If it can't be done any quick tip on how to connect the s4 and the s3 via group play?

Thank you....

Sorry again for the noob question.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] troyboytn:
to answer your question....most likely not. 2.0 will certainly need the newer libs, framework, etc to work as the S4 has a different NFC chip. Hold tight, the S3 will be updated to 4.2.2 soon and will likely have many if not all the same features as the S4.
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
Quick question about the full sense 4 in this rom. It has option to have full auto rotation in rosie in settings. But it never rotates to landscape mode with the widgets,etc. Am I missing something here? Or is it not full rosie with landscape? I checked out the rosie.apk and it has xml,etc for landscape and portrait modes. Just doesnt rotate properly. Also no option to change default homescreen. I am wondering if it is actually any different than the stock rosie outside of the app drawer changes.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karenjnadeau:
I used the Superuser app to unroot, and now I have lost root access but some files are still showing up. I can't do a factory wipe because when it reboots I get the little Android guy with a red exclamation point on his stomach. I have to send this phone back to VZW since the microphone died and they are sending me a new phone, but I have to remove all root evidence. What do I do? Root Checker pro states that the Superuser application is not installed. SuperSU application version 1.25 is installed. I've tried rerooting but that fails as well. Any thoughts as to how I can delete all the files associated with root? I am still on stock rom and have titanium backup, but now that won't work either.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sloosecannon:
Mattlegroff has a "root remover" app on the play store for a buck - just get that and you'll be good to go. Of course, if you've been rooted, its impossible to completely remove the evidence as they can check the root checker in recovery.

The dead android is stock recovery, you should be able to wipe from that (not that it would remove any root evidence, that's all in /system)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi All,

I am thinking of getting one of these to upgrade my ZTE Blade (old, but very faithful). Only being new to the Galaxy Note (N7000) and reading some horrors about it, I am very nervous if I should buy it... I am fine with Android, know my ZTE Blade, HP Touchpad running Android and my MK802-II TV Stick. However this one, not so sure...

1) Is there a App on the PlayStore (pref FREE) that can unlock the N7000, and remain unlocked despite ROM upgrades.

2) Whats all this Yellow Triangle stuff? Is there an App to disable this permanently too...?

3) Is ODIN the only and preferred way to Flash Roms? No Recovery Manager on phone to do it?

4) What steps to follow to Root + Install Recovery + Flash ROMs in light of this eMMC bug. It'll be coming from Stock JB rom.

5) Why are there so many posts about Sim Tray and the N7000, is it faulty??

6) Do I have to keep flashing the right kernel each time I want to flash a new ROM? And to avoid all ICS roms?

7) What NOT to do?? Under all other Androids, I do a factory reset, clearing all data from phone before flashing. Can I not do this now?

8) Any other info I need to know??

Thanks, Lister
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majdinj:
As far as I know for your questions:

1) No

2) Yes.. TriangleAway

3) for Stock ROM yes.. but for custom ROM you need custom CWM (recovery manager as you said, or preferably mobile odin)

4) Search N7000 forum for Phils kernel (in original android development section)

5)????

6) If going between custom ROMs-- No ..... but if you went to stock ROM-- Yes

7) this will depend on ROM developer recommendation

8) !!!!???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi majdinj,

Thanks for answering my questions, its just that I am hoping to replace my aging old ZTE Blade with this device as I know someone who will be upgrading in a few months time. However having read some forums, it seems it has some issues... and so wanted to clear them up before, in case I end up buying a brick... :(

What I meant by Q5) was that Ive seen so many posts on this forum, other forums, and doing a N7000 search on Google Images and there are loads of posts/pictures about the SimTray/Slot, and so I wondered if they are a common fault, like break easily....

and, re Q8) I was wondering if there are any Do's and Dont's with this phone, people who are more use to this phone may say "Dont Root it with XYZ as you will end up with a brick" or something like that....

On my ZTE Blade, HP Touchpad and MK802-II, Ive got so use to wiping them, and flashing them... that its hard to actually brick it... Where as I am seeing lots of posts of irreversable hard bricks... and so dont want to end up with a dead device easily... :( lol

Thank you once again for answering my questions.... If you, or anyone else has any recomendations on what to do with this phone, like cool ROMs, Tweaks and so on.... please fire away!! :) I am looking to put the P.A.C. Rom on it, as I have it on my ZTE Blade and offers the most features... :)

thanks, Lister

Same here... I have a rooted Dev Edition with CWM Touch recovery. Got prompted to update to 1.29.1540.16 (currently on 1.29.1540.3). Tried to install a couple of times, but, it just reboots without installing the update.

%$($*&%(@%... I was too hasty. Rebooted to recovery, wiped cache and tried to flash the downloaded OTA update zip (named OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.16_R-1.29.1540.3_release_318620_signednimix5ealszkrygs.zip) which I found in the downloads folder.

It started the installation, and is now hung at the "Running bug-fix1 tool..." step.

Not sure how long I should wait before aborting it. Am concerned that aborting (forcing a reboot) will cause more damage.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MediocreFred:
Aborted... rebooted... looks OK. Still on 1.29.1540.3. Still prompted to update. So, basically, status quo.

Looked around for stock recovery - the only ones I find are the 401 (instead of 1540) - which, if I understand, is from the international version and NOT the Dev Edition. Can anybody please help me get the stock recovery for the Dev Edition. (My first nandroid backup was *after* installing CWM and rooting.)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePhoneGeek:
Ok got this to work and here's how, it goes without saying that this was my experience and the steps I used and I by no means accept any responsibility for any of these steps functioning on any other device...

I was using TWRP 2.5 and was rooted but otherwise was still on the stock rom that my developer edition shipped with.

I went here and downloaded the stock recovery for .16.

I opened the rar file which included other bat files to push the recovery but I didn't use that. I went to the fastboot folder and pulled the recovery.img file and dropped it in my M7 all in one tool kit folder under data and recoveries.

I then plugged in the phone and opened the toolkit and flashed my own recovery and followed the directions in the toolkit. After reboot the device came up and wanted to load the update which I let it do.

It went through and loaded and the scroll bar went all the way to the end and stuck. I waiting ten minutes and when it didn't restart I held the power button for about 15 seconds (until buttons stopped flashing) and the device screen went blank and I let go of the power button.

At this point it went through a couple screens where it appeared to be loading the update. Scroll bar went to the end and the device restarted and did that again. On the third restart it did a full boot and was good.

I then went back to the toolkit and flashed the TWRP recovery and then after reboot I went into recovery and flashed supersu to get root back.

Not sure if this helps anyone but wanted to share my experience...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Barney0021:
There is still a problem...

Okay, but the function phoneOpen requires also parameters which I don't know where I can get they. For instance the HPHONEAPP. Where can I get the phone application or the deviceID and then the LPPHONE.

I am very thankful to you when you could help me how to get the parameters.

Or is it possible to change the volume of the telephone speaker by changing a registry key? Do you know the key name?

Thanks a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mamaich:
Re: There is still a problem...

phoneInitializeEx gives you PhoneApp and number of phone devices, phoneOpen gives you hPhone, deviceID is probably 0 (test all deviceIDs starting from 0 to the count returned by phoneInitializeEx). Read MSDN for more information.

I don't know the registry key, and modifying it would not change the device volume immediately.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Barney0021:
Thanks for your reply!

When I use the function phoneInitializeEx() it returns a value that is negative but not an determined error. Here is my code. Can you say me whats wrong?!

HPHONEAPP lpHPhoneApp;

DWORD lpdwNumDevs;

DWORD lpdwAPIVersion;

PHONEINITIALIZEEXPARAMS lpPhoneInitializeExParams;

Hi,

My client's child drowned my S2 i9100 phone into Nescafe (instant coffee).

I dried it in the sun and after a while I tried to turn it on but it was not turn on.

I hooked it up to a charger and turned it on - and what happened is that the phone start, start-up sound plays, but nothing is displayed on the touch screen exept the left and right buttons at the bottom that working.

In addition, when I connect the device to my computer, the computer recognizes the hardware, but not "read" it and after few seconds "forget" and disconnect (i only hear the sounds of that- not actually see it on "my computer"). And I have the phone S2 i9100 driver on your computer.

I opened the device myself (of course I separated the battery and sim card) and started to clean the connections of the sockets.

But the phone still remains in the same situation.

My friend work in a mobile lab and he told me that the screen was destroyed and needs replacing.

My question is:

How can I make sure that the problem is really on the touch screen or a specific area in the logic board?

Touch screen on ebay $ 20

Logic board costs $ 80

I do not want to make a mistake and buy at $ 20 and then, to note that the problem was in the logic board, then buy some more at $ 80.

Thanks,
