Change it back. Only do that after the ruu is successful. Keeping it all 2s allows for an unlock token if need be
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
It's not my rom. I simply extracted it from the temp folder while trying to RUU and getting the same error you did along the way. it's just another way to skin the cat.

Check that md5, Again. I downloaded twice before I downloaded from hotfile and got RUU'd.

*(I then soft bricked AGAIN and used the fastboot method to quickly get back up).

Exactly!

is there a way to push the phone to look for the OTA update? or do i need the SIM in it?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] donpkong:
well.. i finally smashed the XDA screen today. the display is gone. i believe the touchscreen is intact but i would prefer to change the whole LCM as the service center says. so where can i purchase the LCM and do the repair myself instead of sending it to a O2 service center?

please, no flames. i've looked on this website but none of the sites seem to work or offer to sell the LCM directly.

any help/links (working) appreciated.

Thanks!

that was what the service person called the item. i suppose that's the name for the whole LCD assembly. i was thinking liquid crystal module..
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] indecided:
donpkong,

if you're from malaysia (as the flag suggests) It might be a good idea to source your screen module from somewhere else. the local o2 repair center (under Accord) is a sham...they're understaffed, unreliable...and very unflexible. I once wanted to buy the XDA housings from them, just like that... they wouldn't sell it to me. The excuse? "We're not a spare parts shop." I wanted to take it back cos I wanted to give the housing a new coat of flat black..but what now? Oh well. My phone's in there for issues with the vibrator.. went through the phone myself but couldn't figure out what was wrong. So trust them to give me a RM500 "change motherboard" quotation. Blood Suckers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
I just signed up for Google Music All Access. The first album I went to listen to was the Great Gatsby soundtrack.

Only 7 out of 20 tracks are listed! Does anybody know why this is the case? If this is a licensing issue, how can they have some of the tracks on an album, but not all? And if this is indeed the case, I'm definitely not gonna stick to this service.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sloopdawgg:
I also tried listening to the same soundtrack. The issue is not with Google because there is the same issue on Spotify. I believe that the producers don't want to let everyone listen to the entire album without purchasing it. Unfortunately, that's nothing that Google can help. Most soundtracks are the same way, i.e the Django Unchained soundtrack.

You from Israel, right? Me too, so don't worry, I think I can help you :fingers-crossed:

It seems like you have many wakelocks, which can be prevented very easily:

1. Did you disabled preinstall apps you didn't need? It can be done via Settings->More->Application Manager->ALL. Then, look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2260766 for apps you don't need for the phone to function.

2. Pull down the full notification area toggles and disable the Sync, NFC and S Beam and enable them only when you want to use them.

3. Install GSAM Battery and after full discharge show here the Screen brightness statistics + use auto brightness. Maybe your screen is bright always which consumes much more battery (about 3 times more than Dark/Dim brightness).

4. Install BetterBatteryStats and post screenshots from there also after full discharge.

Hope it'll help :)

P.S. You can PM me in Hebrew if you like :p

lol then whats the use of getting new S4? why didnt u get galaxy core or any other mid range mobile? these smartphones are supposed to be used with all the bells and whistles... i get about 5-6hours of battery life with my Exynos version and i keep almost everything on except for the motion scroll. the eye tracking tech in S4 is sick and fun :D

well to OP, i would recommend u to get the Stock firmware installed or go for Omega roms. Omega roms are awesome cause u have the choice to install anything urself!

i have not used Omega on my S4 cause i just got my S4 few days back and i want to use it stock :D

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
First of all, nobody who knew what the hell they were talking about said that WP8 displays as a USB drive (properly called USB Mass Storage). It's an MTP device, like most media players (or indeed WP7, though that had an extra layer of encryption around it). MTP doesn't display the actual filesystem; although the hierarchical display that it presents *may* mirror a real filesystem, it's under no obligation to do so.

The dearth of supported file types in WP7 was a real pain, but it could be fixed by tweaking the registry. In WP8 it's still a pain, but now third-party apps can (officially) register to handle file types. However, as you point out, there's no real way to browse the phone, and the Office hub only shows the filetypes it recognizes. We *might* be able to fix that, if we could get registry write permission, but that's not possible right now. With that said, I don't know if it would be possible for another app to register the (for example) .txt extension; the phone does offer the ability to choose what app opens a given file type.

For what it's worth, Bluetooth file transfer to the phone works fine, and the files will open in whatever app is registered to the file's extension. You can then save them into the app's storage (Documents, for Office apps). This may be a better way to transfer your data.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevieBallz:
In WP8 you can build Apps that associate themselves with certain filetypes (identified by the ending). If your App is associated with a certain file type the App can also open files of that type from anywhere on the SD Card.

So for example if you put a *.log file onto the SD Card any App that is associated with the ".log" ending can read it (the Explorer functionality for the SD Card would have to be implemented by the App itself but it is supported). This does not work with the integrated storage though. With integrated storage you would still have to receive it via E-Mail, SkyDrive, etc.

Now for the caveats:

- Apps can't be dynamically associated with File Types. If you want to open "*.log" files the App developer has to associate his App with the filetype in it's manifest. If several Apps exist for a given filetype the user will be asked which one to use.

- There is a quite extensive list of file types that are reserved for the OS or built in Apps. Any file type that is reserved in that way can't be associated with third Party Apps. This contains Office documents (except PDF, TXT files and lots of media file types). The complete list can be seen here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj207065(v=vs.105).aspx

- Apps can only read from the SD Card but they can't Change data there.

Now as for your Problem: someone could build an App that supports e.g. Log-Files and you could use your Lumia 820 with an SD Card to pretty much work the way you intend to with those files. It's not really trivial though, given that 10 MB big plain Text-Files regularly lead to Trouble even on PC text Editors (the developer has to be smart on how to handle These "huge" files, so just some midnight hack job won't do).

What are your further requirements? Search pretty obviously. But what are all the filetypes you would need? Would you need editing capability?

Just trying to understand the compelete picture of your requirements. Perhaps you can tell us what kinds of files you use and for what purposes.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5v17:
Thanks for taking the time to reply.

[MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]

Re 'seen as a USB drive' - That's me being careless with words, what I meant to say was the ability to local sync over a USB cable, & then access the copied files on the device. I didn't think that you could do this with WP7 [without frigs], & had high[er] hopes for WP8.

I might have a look at Bluetooth FT as a method for getting the [bulk] data over locally, as I won't be doing it via the cloud [email or Skydrive]. Thanks for the advice.

[MENTION=2359131]StevieBallz[/MENTION]

Thanks for the MSDN reference - Very interesting.

Ok, so the apps can potentially access the data on the SD card but not write to it - As an aside, I thought I read something the other day that said data on the SD card was limited to Pictures, Videos, Music etc, as a security measure. That's interesting too then, though anything I want to be 'secure' I'd keep in the internal storage anyway.

Re the comment re 'Trouble even on PC text Editors'. Yes, I tried way back on WM2003 to get a file displayer going, but immediately hit problems with [I think] a 32KB limit on the textbox display. I've just made do with WM6.5's Word displayer since, which offers basic functionality.I keep meaning to go back to the coding, but haven't managed it yet [I think Visual Basic was missing for a while with WP, if indeed it's there yet (I thought I'd read it was with VS2012?)].

Re my 'requirements'. Just to be able to search [large-ish] text files & have the o/p displayed in a manner that's readable [no word-wrapping]. I realise editing is a whole new ball game, so read-only would be good enough. Longer term, I'd like the ability to have many text files open at once - On the desktop I use "Programmer's File Editor", & something like that [if only as a viewer] I'd find invaluable on the smartphone/PDA. I also have many thousands of files on my desktop [PDF, DOC, RTF, HTM, TXT etc] & ideally I'd like access to those on the go as & when needed, via a hierarchical file system on the mobile device, with the structure exactly mirroring the PC's file system, so that I'd search for & find data in the same places regardless of which device I was using [Why thousands? Might be 100s+ actually, & these could be electricity bills, sales receipts, insurance documents - anything - the stuff of life really].

I'll continue with my testing of Office Mobile Word's displaying & searching of text files. I've found it patchy & not consistent so far, but am going to have to move from WM6.5 eventually [more's the pity], & don't really want the hassle of sending the device back again.

Many thanks for your advice so far.

Hey

I always keep a track of the available RAM on my device. On stock ROM, keeping bloatware and unnecessary apps disabled, i get RAM of about 450 MB available for usage. I was also able to do this on ARHD. On CM11 it slightly went down. I've noticed that by freeing more RAM i am able to make my battery longer, not a discovery worth mentioning since it's pretty obvious but just saying.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bd1212:
Okay, so as the title says, the screen on my VZW GS4 seems to be changing the hue depending on what colors are being shown on different parts of the screen. For example, when I get a text and the little green icon pops up in my notification bar, the whites on the screen darken, and as soon as the icon is gone, they go back to normal.

The same thing happens in the youtube app. When playing full screen videos colors get lighter (and more unrealistic) and then when I click on the screen and the pause button and other menu buttons shows up, the colors darken and become more realistic.

I've turned Adapt Display off and this happens whether it in Dynamic, Standard, or any other of the display modes. This strange behavior is very familiar when the phone is set to the lowest brightness.

Anyone know why this might be happening or know a possible solution?
