[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenomzye:
If you let it discharge and turn off, pull the battery out and reinsert it, does the phone turn on?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexFR38:
It seems to be relevant, as I really think it is a hardware problem. But I didn't find any discussion about this part in the forum.

I have never tried in that way. I know that when it arrives to 0%, it's really 0% and there is no juice in the battery. I will test tomorrow ...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
I saw it a while back actually.

Well, it doesn't matter.

If it's a hardware problem, best to bring it to a repair shop and get it checked.

P.S The white band near the battery seems to be a fuse of some sort. Strongly suggest to get it checked.

I wanted to know if the problem was common, and what are the reasons.

I sent a mail to Sony, I will give news about the problem ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Hmmm, I had the same problem with other phones but for different reasons.

My Nokia 5610 had a piece of paper attached to the battery compartment. When it turned red, it meant that the motherboard had been corroded.

For my friend's Motorola Razr, there is a fuse inside the phone that will blow if he unlocks the bootloader. There is no indication by visual inspection but it will show under detailed inspection.

I think your case may be hardware failure, since you got the red band after your phone got SOD.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexFR38:
The phone is working perfectly, except the autonomy. I think a damaged motherboard would cause bigger problems.

Even if I have a custom ROM, I didn't unlock my bootloader. And the battery became red about 2-3 weeks ago, my SOD was 5 months ago. Maybe the battery begins to suffer from the high consumption.

Greetings,

I am running an HTC One with CyanogenMod (Android 4.2). I had attempted to create and load a custom boot animation. I was able to pull from the source zip (/system/media), and confirm that I could reload it. I greated jpg's which were the same pixel count as the Cyanogen Animation (I didn't touch the desc.txt at all) and recompressed it (mac user so zip -0r bootanimation.zip). I pushed it back to the same location, and rebooted the phone. I was greeted with the wonderful message saying my bootloader has been tampered with, and then nothing for the rest of the phones boot until the lock screen.

Reloading the original animation zip still works. I have also tried a couple other tested HTC One boot animations, and none have succeeded. I ran the bootanimation command straight from the bin folder, and nothing happens. It just skips to another line, no message, no animation.

I am from the world of windows originally, and am still getting used to the mac/linux structure of things. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am not sure how to troubleshoot this problem further. All googling on the topic has produced solutions for others, but not myself. I understand this is a new piece of hardware, and it just may not be possible yet.

Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

For the last few weeks I was using Galaxy S3 3g (I9300) and I really liked this phone. Couple of days ago I was given the 4g version of the same phone. It is obviously faster as long as data transfer is concerned, but to my surprise, there are also differences in how the customizing of the home screens works.

In the new phone I can't just hold an icon and move it somwhere. In order to do it I have to select Edit from context menu first. Also when I move icons across pages I can only go right (!).

Both phones are on unmodified stock ROMs, android 4.1.2.

Is there a way to enable in 4g phone the same way the home screen is handled in the 3g version?

Cheers,

Tom

Thanks!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BB88:
Yes, I have the same problem. I'm now on ARHD 51.0
[HTC EVO 3D] snokarver:
I've grown tired of my ARHD ROM mainly because it lacks the Update functions and not being able to at least update my profile means I often don't have signal or just 1x data. That makes my apps sloooow when using the internet. Plus I'm ready for something new.

I finally got s-off, so I'm good there. I was thinking about going with CyanogenMod 10.1 - WILD FOR THE NIGHT, but it seems like MMS isn't working well and that's something I use all the time. It seems like most ROMs want HBOOT 1.5 and I'm on 1.58. What's the easiest rollback method? I used the JuopunutBear method to get s-off, but it's really tedious to boot a live CD, plus their instructions for their older HBOOT aren't quite clear enough for me.

Secondly, about the ROM, the features I care about most are:

- Making calls

- Web surfing

- SMS/MMS

- Camera (3D not needed)

- wimax

I also would like something that's a bit more snappy. Going to JB would be nice, but if it's more sluggish on my hardware then I'll stick with ICS.

I found some previously recommended ROMs but they don't seem to be maintained anymore.

Thanks much.
[HTC EVO 3D] jlmancuso:
Changing hboot is easy. Just copy the hboot PG86IMG.zip to the root of sdcard and reboot into bootloader. It will flash the hboot. Now at this point I pull the battery cause it will only let you reboot. Remove pg86img from sdcard and boot into recovery. Always wipe all partitions on the phone cause the hboots can have different partition sizes. Now flash your ROM of choice. If you need hboots I have them on my goo. Goo.im/devs/jlmancuso.

You can go up and down without losing root. So flash away.

To get it from the factory image, you need to mount system.img (filesystem aka fs is ext4) to some folder, you'll then be able to see the contents of the /system partition and copy systemui back to the device, setting permissions right.

Switch to AT&T and purchased a 32 gigabyte model and you shouldn't have a problem anymore. That's why there was so much heat on samsung for not releasing the other models with more internal space. However, I was speaking with AT&T rep and he told me that sales for the 32 gig models was extremely low and they never ran out of stock so I don't know if people are really that annoyed with the limited internal space because after all that pressure on Samsung they finally released a model with more internal space and people aren't buying it so maybe Samsung was right all along to not release anything but the 16 gigabyte model.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namurt:
my contract with verizon is up as of tomorrow (june 1st). i currently have an htc thunderbolt that i've been limping along with since sometime around the phone's launch. i've managed to get along with this dreadful device for a looong time now, and i do have a very functional and reliable aosp ics rom running smoothly on it. so if worse came to worst, i could suffer just a bit longer.

all that being said, i am DYING to upgrade! but... i'm very torn. with all the recent announcements, there are some very exciting possibilities on the horizon. i see myself as having the following options:

1.) go with nexus 4 now

2.) go with gs4 nue shortly

3.) go with htc one nue shortly

4.) hang onto tbolt (sticking with verizon month-to-month for the time being) and wait for moto's x phone to drop (and when that time comes, possibly extending a contract with verizon, or jumping ship to another carrier)

if i go with 1, 2, or 3, i would likely use either straight up t-mo prepaid, or possibly solavei.

i just can't decide what to do! i know any of these options will be an amazing upgrade from this craptacular tbolt. we're talking leaps and bounds. i'm just worried that the n4 is already a little too long in the tooth. do you think it'll hold it's value and maybe i could get the n4 now and then throw it up on swappa when the x phone (and/or possibly the n5) comes out? does that sound viable and monetarily sound?

options 2 and 3 are the least attractive to me. i don't really feel like ponying up full retail dough. i'm a devout fan of stock android though, so i can't see myself particularly enjoying sense or touchwiz on a non-nue version of either device. yes, i know i could get a carrier-subsidized version and then just root-n-rom, but i'm trying to drop the carrier model entirely. i'm tired of giant corporations taking too much of my money!

one final thing to note is that i'm not worried about giving up my grandfathered unlimited data. i just don't use enough data, period. i'm a heavy wi-fi user, and in the past two years of unlimited with verizon, i've rarely surpassed a few gigs a month.

i suppose i'm just a very indecisive fellow, so i need some guidance. or to be blunt, tell me what to do, please. :p
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomnoob83:
If you're waiting for the next best thing then you'all always be waiting because there will always be something better so I'd go with either the one if you really like build quality, the nexus 4 if you want the most bang for your buck(because it's cheaper it'll be easier to upgrade), and the gs4 if removable battery and SD car slot is important to you
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PacifistRiot:
Go with the N4. It's going to be the cheapest phone for the quality that you get (for being off contract).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rarscaryfrosty:
The nexus 4 is actually a pretty high end android phone at dirt cheap pricing. At the time when it was comparable to most other android phones, it was still half the price unlocked. Even today with the GS4 and HTC one on the market, it's still highly comparable in terms of quality and performance.

If you want to upgrade, you can always sell the phone on ebay. The 16GB nexus 4's have hit up to $320 used!

Nexus 4 best bang for your buck that's for sure. It's smoother and faster than s3 and doesn't lose much to the other 2 at half their price. No brainer imo if you're going pre-paid. The only bad thing about the nexus is the camera. It's subpar. Reminds me of s2 but slightly better.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeintDoxx:
Honestly I would go for a Nexus 4! I see a bright future for the Nexus 4 and the Nexus Line. This phone is going to continue to stand up to most androids out now. Also instead of selling it on swappa you can get more cash selling it via Craigslist(if you dare), EBay, or a friend.

how so? both phones support the same bands. are there other hardware differences that would affect reception? (admittedly, i'm pretty ignorant when it comes to radios.)

at any rate, i'm not terribly worried about it. i'm just a bit outside of philadelphia. tmobile has strong coverage blanketing my area, and i don't go out to the sticks hardly at all. i'll take a bar or two less of signal over the ass-raping verizon has been delivering to my wallet over the years!

Hi all

ok so i'm a bit nervous writing this expecting all manner of attack in that i may be posting something that's been posted before lol, i've been working on this phone from start to finish about 9 hours, over two days..... i've googled just about every combination of words to do with the title and everything in between but nothing seems to come close to what i actually need to do as nothing works

i have an LG Optimus 2x / p990, it had ICS on it but was far too slow to handle this, it needs something a bit less hardware intensive to run smoothly, so i went ahead an found cyanogenmod stable ...... 7.2 i installed sdk after an hour of finding out how it works i finally got adb and fastboot working, i then needed this, that, this, that, etc etc etc.....

to cut a 9 hour story short, i've managed to get myself to the point where i wiped the phone of everything but CWM partioned for ics via the AIO software but CWM will not let me install any ROM onto the phone. to be more precise it says i have installed CM 7.2 successfully! (i've tried this via the CWM via external SD card and sideload) i reboot the phone it's as if i've never done a thing, no trace or suggestion i've even attempted it on the internal card... nothing

i'm at the point now where i'm quite happy to just have my phone back now and install ICS 404 but can't use the LG kdz install software as the pc doesn't see the phone as an LG p990 because it's recovery and i can only get it to come up as internal and external memory cards

i'm not really a noob when it comes to tech stuff but this little phone has me stumped.... please, i'm begging you, help me any operating system that can get my phone working will do, preferably the CM 7.2 if not back to ICS 404?

and i know, i know i should have backed up but i had no idea it could be so complicated just to put an OS on a tiny computer

ETA i've tried that exitrecovery.zip thing and it did nothing :/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoyoscratchMC:
It's quite simple

Try to reset and unroot/re-lock the phone then unlock and root, then what you need to do is get ROM Manager and get the Clockwork Recovery and the version that supports your device, although you might need to hook up your phone to your computer for the process to work.

Also put back in ICS 4.0.4 when unrooted and re-locked again like stock and make sure it's the stock file for your phone.

And after you got ROM Manger and the Clockwork Recovery

Then just in Clockwork wipe out all data on the device and don't do a factory reset in Android just with clockwork and delete everything that was made on that phone then install CyanogenMod.

After that it will seem to take a long time or just a while to boot up and then it boots faster then the original ROM.

If you have Clockwork Recovery just wipe out all the data while it's still in there and you should be set.

When it was my first time putting in CyanogenMod it was 10.1 RC1 on my Nexus 7 and it didn't work and forever bootlooped, and that was because i forgot to wipe the device. Then after going into Recovery with Clockwork I deleted all the data of my tablet and it worked but took 5 mins. to boot up which is nomal.

And if Clockwork doesn't work, do the same with TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project) and download that which can be found here teamw.in/project/twrp

If you don't want to get ROM Manager or that one isn't working then try this website to get Clockwork because it has the whole list of devices and I recommend downloading from the website instead of their app. clockworkmod.com/rommanager
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twelfty:
cheers for that, i've tried all of the above still to no avail, having a think about it the phone is partioned for ics, i'm trying to install CM 7.2 which as i understand isn't ICS so.... maybe the error is that it's a different partioning sequence/setup i'm gonna go for CM 10.1 and see if that makes a difference.

to add i'm not sure why everyone rants and raves about CWM, TWRP seems much more complete and advanced do you (or anyone else) know the main differences?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
TWRP has a completely touch driven interface that is 100% themeable, while CWM has a touch version and non-touch version. Also TWRP has a built in file manger and terminal emulator where as CWM does not. A lot of people like TWRP because it provides a lot of good features with a simple and straightforward yet powerful user interface. I would recommend taking a look at this guide if you want more information on the differences between the two http://www.droidiser.com/2013/04/twrp-vs-clockworkmod-recovery.html?m=1.
