[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yes I got it thank u so much I will see about working on a fix, but before I do that I'm finishing this anime series. 2 episodes left!

OK I'm starting to think this encryption thing I years is a rumor, I can decode the framework just fine on my PC. Tuan plz feel free to test out my last release of this script and tell me if you get a decoding error because it is working just fine for me. Though I have no kindle 7.4.3 is on my kindle to actually test this out on. I just tested this from the standpoint of running the apk decompiling tool to check if it errored. If it bricks, you will need either twrp installed or a factory cable to fix. I find it much easier from twrp using adb, because it makes a backup you just restore through adb rather than reflashing your device.

This message also applies to anyone else with x.4.3, please test out my script, I need feedback be cause I think the encryption bug may have just been a rumor now that I have tested this on a 8.4.3 and a 7.4.3 framework-res.apk, so I need testers to confirm or deny this since I am unsure. Shouldn't be anymore risk involved than there was before by testing this, worse case u get stuck in boot loops and have to restore.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuan1111:
I'll try it. I'll just have to install TWRP. Didn't think I'd need it but I'll install it and try your script and tell you how it goes. Probably won't be today but hopefully tomorrow.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK thanks, be careful installing twrp, it installed fine on mine but when I helped my friend do it, he got the red screen even though he told it to downgrade the boot loader. Had to use a factory cable to fix.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuan1111:
I installed TWRP but when I tried to backup it says it couldn't find the directories to copy onto my computer. I was following seokhuns guide. The first half of his commands went find but when I tried the pull commands it couldn't find them. Thankfully it didn't matter, I just skipped that step and installed it fine. I just ran your fix and my wallpaper works again so thank you so much. Although if anyone knows how to make the other commands work so I have a backup that would be great. Unless, does the KFFirst Aide backup work just as well? I have that.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yea I think it does the same thing u must tried to do. Yay well then PRESSS RELEASE!! My fix works on the latest update after all keep using it if you feel like it. I will work on the Linux script soon in have just been a bit busy.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brax33:
It looks like 8.4.3 also removed TWRP... Lucky me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sga999:
stunts513 (and others who helped him), your fix worked perfectly on a friend's KFHD 8.9 with 8.4.1. Your hard work is greatly appreciated. You seem very diligent and efficient (but you need to get more sleep)! I haven't moved on to 8.4.3 yet since it sounded like there were encryption issues with x.4.3. But it sounds like that's not true, and it's working well for you. I probably missed something, but were people saying that your fix worked fine for x.4.1 but not when they went to x.4.3? In any case, I think I can wait for a future release rather than upgrading to 8.4.3 now...unless you really want more testers.

I'm using a Samsung headset to control call. However when I'm pressing the Call button on the headset it always launch S voice, how do you set it to launch Google Now?

Thank you
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Bladerunner1825us:
Do you use s-voice at all? You could try to freeze it in Titanium backup and see if the call button then defaults to now?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cds80:
Hi guys,

I've been happily running custom ROMs on my TF101 for nearly two years now with no issues aside from little bugs specific to each ROM. Everything from 4.0.3 to 4.2.2. For the last few months I had been running Android Revolution HD 3.6, but yesterday I was greeted with a boot loop when I turned it on. Absolutely nothing had been changed in terms of software.

I have tried formatting every partition I can, reinstalling numerous ROMs via RogueXM, TWRP and Roach CWM, and everything boot-loops. Out of desperation I flashed the stock Honeycomb ROM back via ADX and found it finally boots. If I then upgrade the firmware via ASUS's built-in updater, it's fine until it gets to the ICS update; in which case I get a boot loop again. If I try flashing stock ICS via ADX, I get a boot loop just as if I had flashed it in recovery. Basically, anything other than Honeycomb does this.

What on earth could cause this issue? I'm wondering if something has gone faulty on my device that only ICS onwards utilises properly. Did ICS bring in hardware accelerated graphics or anything like that? Maybe a partition has corrupted that flashing via ADX or recovery doesn't address? The thought of having to run Honeycomb sends shivers down my spine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cds80:
It would appear that my headphone port is not working correctly. Honeycomb permanently thinks that headphones are connected and therefore doesn't use the external speakers. I do get output from the port however. I wonder if this has something to do with my boot issues on anything other than Honeycomb; perhaps ICS onwards uses a different sound driver or something like that.

Does anyone here have experience with something similar?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcooke:
I replaced my old Droid X a long time ago. Eventually the battery swelled and I threw it away.. so my old X currently has no battery. When I plug it into PC USB, nothing at all happens. If I plug it into wall power, the Motorola logo comes up, then a few moments later a big emtpy battery icon appears with a question mark in it. I can't get it to go anywhere from there.

Is there some kind of key combination I can push to force it to boot into the OS or is a battery, even a dead one, required to operate the device?

I just want to tinker around with it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] some_kid6:
You are going to need some sort of battery. My X's battery lasts a grand total of 27 seconds after boot but as long as it's there I can flash roms and turn it on. I had an issue where I had to flash a rom to charge it and I couldn't flash a rom till it was charged.. I looked everywhere for a way to use it without the battery but the only one was to find a charged battery. I ended up borrowing a friends' battery.

I have booted phones into download mode whiled connect to my computer via USB. I believe it depends on the phone. My thunderbolt's battery was dead, but I was able to boot it with dead battery
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grey199318:
interesting to know. I've tried charging my battery with a USB charger and it takes forever to get any type of charge. I am surprised to hear you could boot the phone with a USB.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beanboy89:
What would happen if you short out the battery contacts while it's plugged in? Would that trick the phone into thinking there's a battery in place?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khalilcr:
I just flashed PAC ROM but the only thing I miss from the stock ROM was the contacts widget with the option to slide to enlarge.

Although not crucial for the enjoyment of the phone any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Now my question is: is safe the Unlocked botloader? what are the advantages and disadvantages?, Risk?.

Please Help Me :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mnishamk:
First of all thi has been asked many times

Well when unlock via official way u'll lose your drm keys so apps like trackid work work again. Also relocking it won't bring it back.

Other than that personnally I think unlocking is great coz now u have fastboot and can flash any kernel you want and so try out aosp roms like cm

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPARK333:
Hi. We recently upgrades two phones to the s4. One black and one white. Both are basically setup the same with GO lockscreen and launcher. The black one doesnt aeem to have problems but the white one will ´hang' or freeze on the lockscreen for about a minute every other time. Already tried hard resetting and wiping cache to see if that would fix anything...oh and also the white one will display the message no room on home screen (?) On the bottom and the oddest times even when im using the xda app

If anyone could let me know how ro fix this or if at this point I should just exchange this one for another...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QckGl:
I'm having the same problem with my GT-I9500. When I lock the screen and then few seconds later when I press the home button the lockscreen freezes for like 30 seconds and then it starts working again. I'm with the Stock ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7moooodi:
There shouldn't be any difference since they are the same model with same framework and only the color is different! Are you on stock ROM or a custom ROM? Just asking because maybe something went wrong during the custom ROM installation?

Anyway, I don't see a reason for the problem, and I would just recommend to try restoring the phone to it's original status (i.e. re install the latest stock framework and wipe everything off the phone). It might just work!

All the best!

I had this problem on the Galaxy S2. It seems to be a problem with Exynos since I don't have this issue on i9505.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Oneiros42:
I can't transfer large files from my PC to my Telus HTC One via USB cable. I don't know exactly how big they have to be; music file transfer fine but a 300mb video doesn't. I've used the cable that came with the phone plus other cables I have. I've tried every usb port on my computer. I've followed all the directions here and installed this, but anytime I copy a big file over I get "windows explorer has crashed". I DID somehow get one file to copy (it even asked if I wanted to convert first) but I've never been able to duplicate that.

Do I have a faulty phone, or is this an issue that has been asked an answered somewhere already? My searching the forums didn't help me.

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] neo_lithic3K:
Have you tried different HTC drivers? Also, I think HTC comes with it's own sync program. You can try installing that just to see if there's a problem with the phone to PC communications.

---------- Post added at 06:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

oh nevermind. I see in the link that you posted that it talks about drivers and HTC Sync already. This is tough one. The only other issue I've ever encountered in the past (with another brand phone) was when I didn't use the usb cable that came with the phone. The usb cable that i've been using didn't work; I had to use the one that came with the phone.. but you already indicated that you are using the one that came with it.

You should probably rule out that this is not an issue with your PC. Perhaps try it on a laptop or a friend's computer. I almost want to say that it's an issue with the PC since windows explorer is crashing on large files.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Oneiros42:
sonuvaBITCH!!!

All the large files I've been trying to transfer have been .mkv files. As soon as I try to transfer a large .mp4 file it works fine. If I rename an extension .mkv_ it also works fine. It's just the .mkv extension that makes Windows Explorer crash and restart when I try to copy it. Are there any other extensions that it chokes on?

And since .mkv videos are so prevalent now, that bit of information should go into whatever FAQ sticky thread this forum will get. Glad I got it sorted, and thanks for trying to help neo_lithic3K.

It hasn't been 14 days could I get all my money back plus the deposit I paid ??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] metalfan78:
Call sprint and ask.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shaqqq:
Can anyone answer my question seriously please I just need to know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] BiffTirkle:
I have found the chat option on sprints site to be a great alternative to a phone call or a trip to the store. but i imagine, the answer is yes you can take the phone back and get your money back. i have done it. there was an htc windows mobile phone years ago i got and took back less than 2 weeks after i bought it. it got horrid reception.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JasonJoel:
I don't see why you wouldn't just call sprint and ask...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Just_s:
Within the 14 days you should be able to, but I'm 99% certain they will charge you the restocking fee. I don't think there were any other fees.

I thought about leaving when my contact was up last time, but I couldn't find anything better anywhere. Good luck with your switch, hope they let you or without too much hassle.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AzWizzard:
You can cancel in the 1st 14 days. You will have to pay for the time you used it (a pro-rated ammount) but you will get the rest of the money back + your deposit (if you had to put one down.)

You MIGHT have to pay a restocking fee on the phone and you will lose your $36 line-activation-fee you had to pay too.

Just go into a Sprint store and tell them you are within your 14 days and you want to cancel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] supercholo:
If you return a device on a new line in the first 3 days you pay no service costs but subject to the restocking fee.

After the first 3 days but before 14 then you would still have to pay for the services uo to that point and a restocking fee.

The only way to avoid the restocking fee is if the device is defective.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Delakit:
Lmfao. Seriously dude? Not all of us work for Sprint. FYI, Sprint can answer questions through their forums, E-Mail, walk-in / store call, online chat, calling their customer service line by pressing *2, etc...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shaqqq:
Seriously? You wasted your time to write that. Who cares about your smart comment
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Inline:
It wasn't a smart comment. It was a legitimate statement. I am 100% you could have figured out the answer to your question by doing any of the listed methods that should be the first things you do before asking a question much quicker then posting a thread on XDA and then waiting for responses.

Your question was in regard to Sprint, so why not ask Sprint directly - there's a multitude of ways to contact them. And I know there are plenty people knowledgeable of Sprint's procedures here and I know some people work there as well but your question was for Sprint, what's the point of asking her unless you were unable to get an answer for who knows what reason.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kreemerz:
Did it ever occur that he may bounce a few questions off others here in the appropriate place - the forum before contacting the service provider. There is no harm in that; if one might believe so, than simply do not respond.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Delakit:
Grow up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] LordLugard:
How about you do your own due diligence instead of expecting someone to "wipe" for you as well. I mean, for the love of everything sensible, this is the sort of question that is solved by contacting the carrier via * 2, walking into a store or via the web. Anyone can say whatever on here (both correct and incorrect) and it wouldn't mean squat because at the end of the day the final decision is (between you and Sprint) the carrier.

Wouldn't you rather get the correct answer from the horse's mouth?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] cruise350:
Be quick about it, it is actually only 13 days. They count the day of purchase as the first day so make sure you don't wait to long.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] P1NK13P13:
If you don't like the answers that were given, call Sprint. I'm not sure why you didn't just do that in the first place :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] musclehead84:
Did they do it for you?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shaqqq:
Sprint said I gotta pay a Cancellation fee even within the 14 days she said it's like 350$ to do that. I'm not going that do I'm just going to stay on Sprint. But I thought I could return and cancel my plan within the 14 days for free. Because mostly all companies are like that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] musclehead84:
They can't make u pay the etf if your still in your 14 days. I'd talk to someone else if u really want to cancel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] n00b1269:
They will only still make you pay an etf if the device is damaged
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] P1NK13P13:
You can get a full refund without any fees if returned within 7 days. If you're past the 7 days but still within 14, you can return your device for the hefty fee of $350 x_x
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shaqqq:
Why would someone cancel within the 14 days and still have to pay the 350$ for the device and can't even keep the device
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GiantJay:
It's 14 days for returns. Who did you speak to, a person on the phone or in a store? I hope you did not buy from a third party, my experience with them is they will lie, cheat, and steal your money.

I want to connect a Holux GM-200 serial GPS unit to my M1000

The pin config for this device you is as follows:

Pin 1 is 5volts + supply

Pin 2 is TX

Pin 3 is RX

Pin 5 is Ground

Pin 9 is DGPS in

All other pins r not connected. I also need to now what settings I need to have the GPS receiver set to i.e. do I select SIRFstar II or NMEA settings I have a lead that I made and now am able to connect to the PC through the serial port. Using this I have now accessed the menu so that I can make relevant changes. i am using a programm called SiRFstar Demo 3.30a with this i can directly programm the GPS to give what ever info i want.

I will be using Tom tom navigator software and this has selection in drop down menu for GM-200 how ever I am not sure if the setting should be in

d*m’s’’ or d* m.m’ or d.d*

* is degrees – my keyboard doesn’t seem to have that symbol

I am connecting via serial cable COM port 1 I have disabled infa red so the port is free. My soldering is okay but i am not sure if my connections to the PDA are correct- is there a lead that can do this for me. or will i have no alternative but to recheck my connections on my home made lead.

Please help

Make sure you disable beams in settings/connections/beams, choose nmea 4800 and com 1. You will also need to disable external keyboard driver if installed.

How dou you connect the serial GPS to your device?

If you use a serial sync-cable you have to insert a null modem cable.

You have to ensure that tx goes to rx and rx goes to tx that they can talk to each other....

[HTC First] chrisliphart:
Here's the zip of the OTA that was pushed out. It won't install through either CWM or TWRP, so can someone who's more knowledgeable in these matters make it flashable?

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/821854/OTAPkg.zip

And in case it helps, here's the log from CWM from trying to flash it manually:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/821854/recovery.log

And yes, as with any OTA, you run the risk of losing root, etc. But for me, I really don't care. I've even tried pushing the included stock recovery, but it doesn't work like this. You get a phone with an exclamation point over it (I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about) when you try to boot into that recovery. A quick push of TWRP back onto the phone fixed that error, but I still can't flash the update, obviously. Anyone want to take a crack at it?

Thanks to nuclear_eclipse for getting this and the log for us!
[HTC First] nuclear_eclipse:
That symbol just means that it doesn't know what file to use for the update; this is part of what get's communicated somehow from the OS to the recovery during reboot, but I'm not familiar enough with the way recoveries work to know how to trigger that myself. I would assume this is a similar mechanism to how ROM Manager et al can tell CWM/TWRP what to flash.
[HTC First] chrisliphart:
That makes total sense. I guess it's not automatically checking the folder that Software Update puts it in. I've got another 22 hours until I can get Software Update to check again. I'll push the stock recovery before I do that, unless someone makes this flashable through TWRP or CWM before then.
[HTC First] jmz:
In my stock Rom thread there are new files up. They are the ota roms. So if you are running stock, download the odex one ending in 1.08 and flash in recovery, no need to wipe data. Then pull boot.img and fastboot flash it. You now have the ota software. I will post instructions to upgrade the firmware that came with the ota
[HTC First] chrisliphart:
Rooted and all! Thank you sir!
