[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kadodo:
Hi,

I have got a broken U20i which i want to repair, if possible.

Do not know anything about the history of the phone and what has caused the damage.

The led does not work, when it is started it comes a short vibration and afterwards for several seconds the backlight of the display.

The backlight returns every 20 seconds, and it seems that the accu is charged - that is all it does.

With SEUS and PC Companion updates are possible without any problems.

27.05.2013 16:46:33 SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE

It was possible to unlock the bootloader and to flash the kernel with Flashtool and to set it back to fabricmode with SEUS.

After each procedure the phone does not start.

I tested the touchscreen and the display - both are working.

Is there anything to do exept jtag?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
I don't think a jtag will do you any good since flashing kernels and firmware seems to work fine, and all a JTAG does is force the phone to accept factory firmware, something you have already done with seus.

The little vibration is the standard indicator that the phone is turning on and you can release the power-button, so that's normal too.

I guess there is a hardware fault somewhere. It may be something very simple like the flex that connects the screen to the rest of the phone (the motherboard and battery etc. is all underneath the keyboard on the u20) and it is the most common cause of failure on that phone. If you can see visible damage to that then that would be my first port of call.

But I can't guarantee that that will fix the problems the phone has. I wish you good luck with it though, I love these little phones and there's nothing else like it on the market.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kadodo:
Thanks for your answer.

The flexcable is broken.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kadodo:
Now I have changed the flexcable and the u20i nearly works fine.

During the repair I disabled the wlan-antenna.

Can anybody tell me (or even better show me) where I can find this antenna?

IDK if someone asked this already but is there a way to make sd card the primary save location instead of phone storage? I have a 32gb card and even though its much easier now to transfer files when hooked up to cpu I still prefer to save things to my card then decide what to keep on my phone storage.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MMakoto:
No it's not possible. Apps MUST be stored in the internal memory, which is one of the most talked about issues with the newer Samsung phones. You can only store your pictures and videos taken by the camera in the external memory.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aLdaRiS:
it's not an, 'issue' with Samsung phones, it's a jelly bean 'issue' and there are workarounds like link2sd and other apps that do this for you... I'm not installing every 2gb game on the playstore on my phone so I haven't run into memory problems, yet. lot of people given ill advice

re: swap internal sd to external sd

It is possible to swap internal sd to external sd with a cwm/twrp flashable zip file mod.

Here is the link to the thread, it will say Galaxy S3 but it also works on other phones

but since the S4 is so new right now, the OP did not update his thread.

It should work on our Galaxy S4 too and it cannot hurt anything to try it.

It does not format the internal or external sdcard and it does not delete any files.

Here is the link where you can get a lot more information about it and download it

if you decide to give it a try: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1772234

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savjanivv:
Hey all,

I am very pedantic about everything on my tablet and was looking for a way to get the TV shows on my laptop to show up as TV shows on my tablet. I've got a mix of mkvs and m4vs. I've imported then into Media Go and sorted them all out as TV shows on there, but when I sync them to my tablet (internal or external storage), they only appear as movies. I've scoured the internet and found no answers, so I was wondering if anyone here knew a way around this. I know its a very small thing but I would appreciate it if anyone could help me.

Thanks!

Is it possible to connect this directly to the battery to provide the required 5 volts for OTG? I'm thinking about dissecting a microSD reader and adding it inside the N4. (Don't worry about this) Just need a PORTABLE 5v power source.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zcucurullo:
Buy the OTG cable. You'll still need a power source, I don't think you'll get it from the nexus battery.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Somebody didn't read the OP.

Edit: It seems like if you could get that to work it would be easier just to enable otg by sending the voltage to the USB port. It would also require less internal space.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobOTT:
Well the microSD thing is trivial right now, but is it possible to use the step-up module to provide 5v from the battery?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Possible? According to the specs, yes, but you had better be both careful and thorough. If you don't have experience with soldering tiny connections and a basic knowledge of circuitry I wouldn't recommend it.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobOTT:
I've done SMD before, and if you bothered to look at the product page, there are 3 pins: Vin goes to V+ of the battery, GND is the shared ground, and Vout is the 5V output.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Yes, I can read. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noobOTT:
Umm... how is this related to providing 5v from the battery? I have done OTG before, just asking if it's possible to move the clutter inside the phone.

EDIT: What would be cool is that if I could find a ground on the circuit board that would make my life a lot easier.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PanCubano:
I'm in the market for a new flip case for my S4. I'm currently using the tech21 D30 flip case. It was a very nice case, the cover felt good and the inner material was soft in protecting the screen. It protected the phone overall, but now the corner of the case is starting to crack and I haven't dropped the phone yet. It seems as if the case is too small and tight for the phone. Although this promotes sturdiness, it shouldn't be at the expense of durability.

Can anyone recommend a nice, sturdy flip case? I'm not too interested in the official Samsung case as that seems too flimsy to me since it just replaces the back cover. I'm not looking for something so bulky either.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] PanCubano:
Anyone?

Nope. However, I've seen problems on other forums. Try going into the settings from the page page (where it lists the forums) and pick the clear cache or something option, it's obvious down at the bottom. See if that helps. If not, reinstall.

I have been talking to some folks and tapatalk about one particular forum that behaves terribly with tapatalk and they've been making changes to fix it and I kept having problems, particularly with the forums showing the same 10 posts over and over again in the list and I wound up reinstalling (per their advice) and it fixed it.

Having a tapatalk ID helps here; keeps the forums. You do have to login again, but that's a good thing. :)

I installed the ICS ROM that day. Connected my account. So Google thinks my set runs on Jelly Bean. But then I restored my NAND backup. I can download apps from Playstore of Phone. But when I click install from my PC, the app should start downloading the app on my phone. But it's not working. Google Playstore still thinks I'm on Jelly Bean. (I can install Chrome. But it should say it's not available)

Tried wiping cache & data of Play Store. Didn't work! What can I do without doing factory reset?

What to do?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimplicityApks:
Maybe give it a day or two, it could be that it needs some time to realize that you downgraded. Did it automatically install the new Play Store (+Music etc.)?

Otherwise, try reinstalling the Gapps or doing the whole thing again, go back to a Jelly Bean ROM (maybe the more stable cm 10(.1) by epinter) and restore to your backup again...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
So I have the rev11 nexus 4 and it seems to have pretty awful battery life.. I'm running cm10.1 with the latest faux kernel with the faux clock app all set up: min clock is 594, max set at 1.35, intellidemand governor, eco mode and snake charmer on, voltage at -50mV, as well. I can't fit hardly any apps on this phone because I mistakenly got the 8gb version and can barely fit all the pictures and videos and music.. So no rouge apps or anything effecting the battery (I've already checked). The phones battery is at 40c, and CPU temp at 56c. Because of this, even when I have my phone set up the way it is and the brightness all the way down, I still only get 3 hours MAX of on screen time before it shuts off, completely dead. I've had this phone for a month but I'm about to call for yet another replacement (first one was defective but still had really good battery life). Does anyone have similar issues and should I definitely call and try to get a replacement?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Battery drain is mostly caused by installed user apps running in the background and/or sync settings. Have you installed BetteBatteryStatts to see what consumes most energy? Also install CPU Spy for deep sleep issues.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
Well as I said in my post there are no rogue background apps. The only apps I even have installed are reddit, fauxclock, cpu spy, and xda. I've looked and no internal processes use up much battery also. It's just the screen which is on the lowest brightness setting that seems to suck all the battery which usually doesn't even last three hours.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Maybe a faulty battery, i get 3,5 to 4 hours screen on time with 50% brightness. Running stock rom and kernel atm.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandezhjr:
I haven't had any battery drainage with my N4, but with my previous phone I did. In most cases when I had that type of drain, I would reflash the radio or flash a different one and that would cure it. I'm not sure what would cause the drain, but I was flashing different roms and at some point radio performance would drop off. I have seen some complaints with severe battery drainage with the N4, but I haven't seen anyone trying a fresh radio install. Might not help, but could be worth a shot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BravoMotorola:
I think what I'm going to do is just flash it back completely to stock and just use it for a week without installing anything. If I still only get 3 hours of screen on time I will try to RMA it. There just has to be something screwed up with this phone though because my last phone with the same settings applied got at the very least 5 hours of screen on time. When I can't even go through half a day on this phone with normal usage, even after tweaking and cutting performance along with always having low brightness then I think there is a problem.

It let's him do 2 or more things at once. Reply to text, Google plus, Facebook, etc. So it is kinda the same. Just not running 2 apps at the same time. I prefer halo/Floating notifications.

Nahh because in FN it switches to the actual app... unlike halo which "pops up" the app then closes it once you are done. Halo is more close to multi-view than FN... just sayin :p :cool:

But doesnt the s4 come with multiview on 4.2.2?

Yes the S4 has multiview with 4.2.2 but there is no 4.2.2 for the S3. The only 4.2.2 for the S3 has been ported or taken from AOSP leaks or other devices. There is no TW 4.2.2 for the S3.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
And I believe there was a

4.2.2 leak for the international version

of the GS3, but that's a very different beast than the Sprint GS3 and porting may take a while.

The bottom line is: right now you have to choose between TW Features (like Multi-view) on 4.1.2 or AOSP features on 4.2.2. There are apps/mods that can bring you similar functions (as previously mentioned in this thread), but the bottom line is that you have to choose which features you want more. Personally, I'm an AOSP man. But I will admit that there are some features that I miss from TW (like dragging down just the status bar when you're in a full-screen app).

Hello! So after using a couple of roms(currently using the newset ICJ) I noticed the camera quality(or at least that of AOKP/AOSP roms) to be subpar to that of the sense camera you get initially. Right now my friends' brand new One SV takes better photos with its 5MP camera than my One X does with ICJ/Jelly Bam etc. Is this normal for custom ROMs, or am I just overlooking/missing something? Is there is any mod/fix someone could recommend me, as all I've managed to find are mods for Sense-based roms. Thanks in advance.
