[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] _Dennis_:
My understanding was on Verizon network you stay connected to the CDMA network all the time and connect to LTD in addition (when available) effectively using 2 different radios. With AT&T and T-mobile since everything is GMS based it is more scaling and if you connect to LTD you effectively disconnect from WCDMA until of course you make or receive a call then you fall back to WCDMA. It is more battery efficient then running 2 radios constantly. That's just the way I understand it. I could be wrong
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
FYI

It up in the play store, however....

Logging in does not remember your forum preferences, and...

The search function is not currently working (known bug).

So unless you want to scroll through hundreds if not thousands of forums (because they're not in alphabetical order) it will be difficult to find xda or whatever else you subscribe to.

Hopefully someone can help, my Xperia T seems not to have any USB OTG functionality. I've tried 2 different OTG cables and there is no response from the phone. Any ideas?

Otherwise USB appears to be working fine.

Which Rom, rooted, bootloader status?

These things help us help you.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] timdim:
Rooted on stock 4.1.2. Bootloader is locked.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Do you have usbotg.apk installed?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] timdim:
Yes, version 1.

I tried plugging a Fat32 formatted stick in and it did actually recognise and start to prepare (to mount?) something, however it then said disconnected unexpectedly and is back to doing nothing.

edit: I've ordered a better quality otg cable, otherwise a I think it is the socket on the phone. (But surely that would effect the standard data cable also?)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
I've used several usb devices with my phone. My experience is that some thumb drives draw troop much power. The phone should display a warning about this but it might well be this is the cause of your problem. You could try hooking it up to a powered usb hub, that should always work. I connected a thumb drive, mouse and keyboard simultaneously that way.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] timdim:
I just received a Nokia CA-157 cable, and a USB stick I tried previously just mounted without problems.

So I guess the moral of the story is buy one $2 adaptor instead of two $1.5 ones! :)

Thank You for any advice
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SanketN8:
i tried 2 otg cables with my xperia T

both cables were of nokia

it always shows a usb power consumption error and it gets disabled

does anyone know why ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] timdim:
I believe the Xperia T will only give 300ma before complaining, most devices will ask for 500ma upon connection.

Use a powered usb hub to solve this.

A passive hub may also bypass the power check but I guess you risk drawing too much current from your phone.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Pradeep3072:
Try using different usb pen drive's....

Some bigger sized sticks will show error in power consumption.... So use pen drive which is smaller in size and consumes low power....

I have two pen drives , one connects perfectly and other will show error....
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SICANOOB:
hi, do you have to root your phone before you can use the micro usb host to connect to mouse, hard drive and all that>??? i am confuse... i dont know whether i should buy a micro usb host or not.... and it seems that rooting a phone is very complicated so i dont wanna rack my phone...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
No you dont need to be rooted, but we need to know the state of your phone before we can help you. Secondly, rooting the phone is VERY easy, it takes about 30 seconds and involves clicking about 2 buttons. Search for bin4ry root many android and read that thread.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SICANOOB:
is rooting that easy @0@,.. but i have xperia tx and i am still not quite sure whether it is the same as xperia t as shown in this forum... so i cant risk it.

also, for the usb otg thing... i am planning to buy a hard drive that says is usb 3.0 do you think a normal usb host cable and android phone can detect it?? all these technology stuff are so complicated....

btw thank you soooo much for helping me with that question... it has been annoying me for a lonnnnng time already..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Yes, rooting is that easy.

TX and T are very similar, only a few differences.

I suspect that an external hard drive would need some other power supply than just what it can pull from the usb on a phone.

As has been said before, I have two pendrives, one works the other fails, so the limit of USB voltage is quite low.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shahan_mik3:
It is the modem installed on your phone...yes it affects your battery life, signal reception, temperature of your device.

Search for modems in XDA and flash it because no one can tell you which modem suits you it is different for each device :)

Problem extracting

Hi I keep getting this error when trying to extract these files

CRC failed in 'C6603_10.1.1.A.1.253_Generic DE.ftf@. File is broken

I've downloaded twice, using 7zip to extract.

Any Help?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Did you download both parts and put them in the same folder?

Can you check if their file sizes (in bytes) and/or MD5 sums match with the values on the download page?
[Xperia Z General] Metallijim:
Checked md5, both fine, size is right. Does it matter if I have them on an external drive?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
No, that shouldn't matter. It's strange, because over 100 people have already downloaded these files. I'm currently downloading them myself to check.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
First I had a corrupted download with Mozilla Firefox (MD5 did not match).

Then I downloaded again with Internet Explorer, after which the MD5s matched and the FTF extracted fine, both with WinRAR and 7-Zip.
[Xperia Z General] Metallijim:
Re-downlodad and extracted on my internal drive, all seems well. Thanks for checking.

I think you'll first have to flash 10.1.A.1.434 Generic DE, root it and then perhaps you can do an OTA update to 10.1.1.A.1.253 (if available) and retain root.

Root your phone with this (if you want): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

And make the .235 update OTA.

Make sure you don't remove any bloatware after you isntalled .434, because the OTA won't work if anything is missing!

Root will remain after the .235 OTA update.

Hi! :(

I'm using the O2 XDA II with WAXX ROM v1.72.

Recently, for some reasons, the ringtones (wma files) for my phone are no longer working. Only the Windows Default ringtone (wav) file is working.

Whats the problem and any help to restore the wma ringtones?

BTW, when I went to Start -> Settings -> System -> Add Ring Tone I could not find any wma files only wav and mid files. Why?

Thanks
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] ToAoM:
it could also mean that you have a different defautl player for wma then Mediaplayer, I noticed that the ringtones fail if that is the case.

If you look up midi56.cab on the forum and re-install it (or midi561.cab), that should re-enable the ringtones. Manually registry hacking the wma extension back to media player would probably do the trick aswell...

Hi,

I played inside the system files of my rooted SGA S5830i and accidently deleted a log file, I am sorry I don't remember the name. Now, I see an error message always when I open contacts - android.process.acore has stopped working. Same is the case when I open messages - and it takes me to HomeScreen. I tried downloading a lot of Gingerbread OS version .tar files for my model and nothin works through ODIN as well as through Recovery Mode.

Odin says 'connecting' but no luck. Tried different versions of ODIN, removed SD, removed SIM, removed battery and tried aagin and such, but nothing woked yet.Even tried different USB hubs.

Recovery mode just abort the installation of OS Zip file

So I am planning to root another SGA S5830i of my friend, take a back-up of OS and install it to my SGA. I don't think it will work as it never worked through any of the above mentioned methods to flash a ROM.

Can somebody help me in this matter, please ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brijeshep:
First of all, you have to read the RULES!

There is a separate section for questions and trouble shooting. POST IN CORRECT SECTION!

Install proper Samsung drivers. Make sure that odin detects port of the device.

Odin v. 3.07 supports firmware files without splitting. Other versions needs splitted firmware. Use splitfus to do that.

Flash custom roms via clockworkmod recovery.

Awesome mate, many TX users will surely be happy.:)

Though still many things to iron-out(see the mentioned bugs and some you need to tell the dev), people will still be quite satisfied with the ROM as I did.

I just want to reiterate that during testing I didn't check if the voice calls are fine(lol it should be the basic thing to test).:D

Though I think even at this early stage, it's good that everyone gets to test it and it will definitely help the dev more because more feedbacks are going to flow.
