[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] ne-o:
Hi. I'm very new to the XDA II, just received mine this morning, previously had an SPV E200. I've just tried to register on myxda.com so that I could download the rom updates but it keeps saying I am enetering an invalid IMEI number and therefore I can't register to gain access to the site. Is there any other way of getting the ROM updates and also which is the best Rom to update too. I am wanting to unlock the phone to all netwroks and use with a bluetooth headset and bluetooth gps receiver.

Thanks In Adavnce

P.S. Im in the UK and on the O2 network
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] merlin_uk:
The official O2 Rom update can be found at the developers Source O2 site:

http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm

The current version is 1.60.50

I would guess that this is the version you probably have already installed.

There are a number of unofficial ROM updates which could be installed on your XDAII, these can be found searching this forum. The latest ROM version which you could install is the i-Mate 1.72.00.

Before attempting to install any new version I would suggest that you read the following post by dcs which hopefully would help you avoid the common pitfalls of upgrading:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrlad:
My Nexus 4 charges at full power when plugged directly into a wall, A/C adapter in a car or to a power strip in a wall. However, it is quite erratic when plugged into APC UPSes (tried several of them). Most of the time, it indicates that its charging at USB strength and not A/C although sometimes if a unplug/replug it in enough times, it will show A/C charging. Worse still, a decent percentage of the time, it gets in this rapid charging/not charging or AC/USB charging mode which actually drains the battery. I've ruled out the power cord/adapter and it definitely only happens when connected to the UPS (both the battery backup side and non-backup side). Anyone else experienced a problem like this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoofyBot:
I am sure this has been answer a million times, but I tried to search couldnt really find anything. I was jogging and my phone fell out of my pocket and I cracked my screen. Can I buy a phone with a bad esn and swap my motherboard over to the phone?

Also one more question, sometimes when using my phone the screen will go completely unresponsive and start randomly opening apps or calling people, I just uninstalled all of my apps to see if it does it again. I did read people had problems with this when it was plugged in, I have zero problems when charging it, it will randomly just start doing it, I do not have to restart the phone, just hit the power button to put into sleep mode then hit the power button again to wake it and it will start working fine. It does this when usings apps, such as games or youtube or really anything.

Looking forward to opinions,

Thanks everyone! :good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamingDj:
Hi! First of all,repair your screen.Secondly,try to do a factory reset.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoofyBot:
Already did a factory reset, didnt fix the problem. Though I did read that heavy dust build up can cause your screen to do this. I took my phone apart and it was caked with dust/lint. I used qutips and alcohol to clean it out. So far so good! Also I wont be fixing the screen, I cant find a digitizer under $70, if I spend that much Ill just buy a used S3.

Ill report back in a week or so incase anyone has this problem this could be one of the things that fixes it.

Hi guys,

I've owned a ton of android devices and used xda for years. I'm looking to buy a nook and I saw its possible to root the Nook HD but cant find anything about installing custom roms. Can someone please tell me if its possible and at this point in the game is the nook hd a good tablet?

thanks!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Right now on the HD you can root stock and run CM10.1 from a bootable SD. On the HD+ there is even a version of CM10.1 that you can put on internal memory, but that is not available yet for the HD. And the HD is a great tablet.

[LG Optimus G Pro] davidusr:
Just curious if anyone else is having this issue.

I have the box checked, but I found myself manually adjusting, thinking it just wasn't very sensitive. I turned on auto brightness, moved the slider all the way to dim, went out to the sunlight, and it had no effect. Unchecked, and rechecked the box, restated the phone, did the opposite in a dark room... No effect.

Swifted from my LGOG-Pro
[LG Optimus G Pro] mrfeuss:
I believe the slider sets the maximum brightness. So when you go out in the sunlight the spot where you placed it is the brightest it will get.
[LG Optimus G Pro] davidusr:
I thought that also... But when I had the slider at full bright, with auto turned on, in a pitch black room, it should have dimmed, correct?

[LG Optimus G Pro] Landmine:
Looks like my phone might be doing the same thing... I'm wondering if I should swap my phone out before it's too late to exchange it for an S4.

[LG Optimus G Pro] mrfeuss:
Yeah, you're right. Do you have a screen protector on that might be interfering with the ambient light sensor, by any chance?

Same here must be a bug. But I don't use that function so no biggie for me.

Seems to work with a third party app so I think its software related
[LG Optimus G Pro] Sharpshooterrr:
I don't think it's a bug. The auto brightness on some LG phones doesn't work like the rest of Android phones. On some LG phones, you set the brightness to a certain level and the auto brightness will work around that particular level.

Say you have it at 75% brightness and auto brightness on, the level will go up to maybe about 85% while outdoors and maybe to about 65% in a dim room. Set it at 35% brightness with auto brightness on, the level goes up to 45% in a bright area and 25% in a dark area. That's how my old iPhone 4 used to work.
[LG Optimus G Pro] draiko913:
The way you described the functionality is what I have witnessed mine doing. I had to play around with it for a few days before I figured out what it was doing. No matter which level of brightness I set, auto brightness will adjust up and down from there based on ambient lighting. I do like having this option since it basically lets you further tweak the auto brightness to a comfortable level. On my other phones, a lot of the times the auto brightness was either to bright or too dark compared to what I would have preferred.
[LG Optimus G Pro] RaptorMD:
I thought there was something wrong with the auto brightness on mine as well. I have it on 70% auto bright set and it never seems to change. I have a screen protector but it has cutouts around the camera and other sensors and ear piece so I knew it wasn't that and I also tested it prior to putting the screen protector on.

Seems odd that LG would go a different route on what auto brightness is compared to the rest of the Android OEM's. sort of defeats the purpose but perhaps that is why we have to keep the setting so high to begin with.
[LG Optimus G Pro] nthknd:
I got mine to work. Its kinda strange. I was playing around and I shot a video as I played the video back I hit the menus button and there is a setting for auto dimming so I check it and my phone dimmed so then I checked to see if my main auto brightness would work so I went into settings and checked auto bright there too and the screen dimmed. Havent been outside yet but before this the setting did nothing see if you guys can get it to work on yours.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivantastic:
mine too, the 'auto brightness' seem doesn't work properly, just got dimmed, but not working as well as other phones's auto brightness did
[LG Optimus G Pro] Billy Madison:
Yes, autobrightness on LG works this way since ICS was rolled out for LG Nitro. At 100% even with autobrightness screen will not dim, and at 0% level with or w/o autobrightness screen will not light up.

No, it's right way because brightness sensor works different than human eye and like was said here other phones usually set brightness too dim or too bright using that sensor.
[LG Optimus G Pro] niksan29:
I also think the work Auto Brightness is on the phone E980 strange ... I do not see any change in brightness depending on the ambient light ... Not like all the other android phones:rolleyes:
[LG Optimus G Pro] bittu.anni:
If that is the case, why is there no effect of ambient light on the screen??? The brightness remains the same whatever be the light condition.
[LG Optimus G Pro] i n f a m o u s:
I thought my phone had the same issue as everyone else but noticed this weekend when I stepped into a very bright area my screen automatically adjusted the brightness to a higher setting.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] myeyez:
I'm having trouble deciding between the UAG and the Neo Hybrid. Does anyone have both of these cases that can do a comparison?

It looks like the UAG is a little thicker, but would have better grip and protection.

The Neo Hybrid seems slimmer, but people have mentioned it makes the phone feel wide and not many usb cables fit.

Would love to see both side by side!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mankvl:
I bought UAG because neo hybrid might be slim and looks good to, but the protection is very low for my needs :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] myeyez:
Does the UAG add much bulkiness? I think what its going to come down to for me is the thickness of each case. I couldn't find the dimensions but emailed support at both companies so hopefully I'll know soon.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 92drls:
I had both cases for my S3 and both had pros and cons.

The UAG is no doubt tougher and more reliable but in that it also made the buttons next to impossible to press. I'm a very athletic guy and have strong hands but it was just a pain for everyday use. The thing I liked about it though is it looked very tough and attractive and got lots of manly compliments lol.

The Spigen was pretty solid but fit terrible!! The volume buttons were not spaced right, its hard to explain but you never knew if you were pressing the volume up or down. Best thing about the Spigen is it was very thin and I'm still sure it would have held up in many hard drops. Hopefully they have the fitment issue fixed for the S4 version.

I have already ordered the Spigen for my S4 since all the video tutorials on youtube seemed to fit perfect. I'll report back with pictures when I get it!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 2dmaxhtc:
I have the spigen and man this case is the best. The quality is second to none and yes I love that it doesn't add any bulk to my phone keeps it slim. For protection I feel very confident that I can drop my phone about waist high and this case will do just fine. I also had the it uag for my s3 and looks like the s4 version is identical so even tho I don't have the s4 version I'm not going to buy one cause this spigen case is the bomb and I'm going to order another one for a different color as I have the yellow one and now want the red one as well,.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] suptt14:
Only thing I'm noticing about the Neo Hybrid is that with it off, the phone feels like the perfect width in my hands (texting, browsing, etc...) But when I put it on the phone feels a bit too wide, almost awkward. Just my 2 cents...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] NomisGnat:
i haf both cases and i have to said i like uag better. neo is good to look at but it too wide for my liking. the usb port opening is a problem too, fit e stock sammy cable but not the rest of those usb cables ard. Protection wise, doubled it will survive a fall, the rubber lip off e glass is super thin. The power button is also too easily activated when put in side pocket.

furthermore the 'sharp' edges is uncomfortable if u are those who 'pocket' ur phone instead of keeping it in bag. Bottom line tat case make my phone felt like a note2 wif a smaller screen.

I will be reviewing Neo in a day or two (received sample from Spigen). Once I finish the review, I will take side-by-side pictures and will offer you my opinion since I already reviewed UAG in details (refer to the link in my signature).
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] myeyez:
Looking forward to the comparison pics. Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Foxhoundep3:
i say get both and switch back and forth whenever you feel like it. that's what im doing, can't go wrong with that, I like options and when you limit yourself to one case... well you can't have options :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] mankvl:
I ordered UAG case :) I love it's looks and it's definitely more protective then neo hybrid :) anyone used the phone without case for like 2 weeks and then put UAG case on? The size now of naked s4 is just super for me. Did u get used to it fast?

Sent from my GT-I9505
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jlczl:
Prices on the UAG have historically been driven down almost immediately when the listings on Amazon get fully stocked (usually just a few weeks) so I decided to start with the Neo Hybrid and wait to get the UAG once the price drops.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vectron:
Here is a comparison of UAG vs Slim Armor and Neo Hybrid. Pictures speak very clear, UAG is thicker, but also offers more protection. Neo and Slim are obviously slimmer.

Here, how the same 3 cases will look with Spigen GlasTr laid down on top of the screen. Fits Slim and Neo, but not UAG. Furthermore, GlasTr is 0.4mm which is a bit too thick even for Spigen cases. I would probably recommend using GlasT (0.23 mm) which is thinner. Thicker glass should go with bigger bumper cases, if you find one that fits GlasTr. I'm going to post soon a more detailed review of Neo Hybrid, Aluminum replacement buttons, and GlasTr.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] 2dmaxhtc:
What screen protector are you rocking?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vectron:
If you referring to pictures above, that one is Spigen GlasTr tempered glass. I only laid it down because I'm using display model of S4 for my review (not a real phone). On my Note 2 I have Seidio VITREO tempered glass which is INSANE in quality, but seems they are not making it for S4.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] myeyez:
Vectron, thanks for the pictures. Which case do you like best? If you had to pick one and weren't going to use any glass what would it be?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] dligon:
has anyone tried these cases they look similar to UAG but alot cheaper.

http://www.amazon.com/Emerald-Obliq-Samsung-Galaxy-Xtreme/dp/B00CA6IZ5E/ref=pd_sim_sbs_cps_7
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vectron:
There is a separate thread about these already, and it's at the top of the forum, don't even have to do a search. I personally already offered my opinion about it - it's a cheaper copy cat. I can't comment on quality, so let someone else comment who has both cases. I don't have any intent to order it just for review purpose. Just my personal opinion...
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] trmiv:
Really like my UAG case. I have both the Slim Armor and the UAG. The Slim Armor is great as well, but not as protective as the UAG. For the protection it provides, I really don't feel the UAG is that bulky. Overall it's thinner than my GNex was with a case, so I'm happy.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vectron:
I'm personally after a better protection, so UAG hands down. Spigen cases are awesome and I'm very happy they stepped up their typical minimal slim design to offer a much better drop protection. But still, in my personal opinion based on my personal requirements - I choose UAG over Spigen because I need a more rugged protection.

To be honest, very few number of people use this phone... Its not as popular as S3 or S2 (thats the main drawback of most mid range phones)

And out of all those users, only a very few number of people have knowledge about Android (aka the developers).... And since we're always busy with our lives, jobs, exams, classes, etc. So no one can give complete attention to all this...

Yes, after the JB update - this phone got a boost in a "Development" point of view... I mean we now have more ROMs, themes, Mods, etc... But i believe that all we need are more experienced developers (and users) to help the existing developers and contribute something to this phone's dev support...

As Shaaan said, we are all good at something... So why not form a team and utilize it for better and faster development process for this phone :)
