hmmm , just found out that it only works with the stock browser , wont work on opera etc , bit pointless then as the stock browser is poor :(

Yes all of those gimmicks work only with stock apps and I would say that the stock browser is definitely the best. (except maybe aosp browser)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 02CWRX:
Silly question, but I'm curious. In my area, according to what I have seen on T-Mobile's website, there is some LTE coverage in the greater downtown area. Although I have "4G" just about everywhere, I have also been through the downtown areas and never seen an LTE icon or anything like that on my phone. Speed test results have also not shown anything significant either. Can someone with known LTE chime in?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ryceone:
Yep, here's a screenshot:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The111:
A similar question (I have neither an S4 nor T-Mobile service at this time, but will in the near future).

When you switch from HSPA+ "4G" to LTE 4G... is there an interruption in service for a few seconds as you change networks? I have a Nexus S 4G on Sprint right now, and where I live if I drive 10 miles I will go back and forth between 3G and 4G several times. And every time 4G becomes either available or unavailable, I will have a several second interruption in service while it switches networks. It's so annoying that I sometimes completely disable 4G because I'd rather have slow steady 3G than all these switches back and forth with gaps. Does that make sense?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lojak29:
Its quite normal it just means your radio is switching signals and theres a small down time for a second while it searches for the change in frequency.

Your probably seeing the O with a line thru it for a split second then signal bars arise
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The111:
Yes, I do understand the reason behind it and that it's normal for my phone.

But I have never used an HSPA+ or LTE network or phone and I'm asking if the same thing happens with the S4 when switching between HSPA+ and LTE. I assume it does, but would appreciate confirmation from someone with the phone, on Tmobile, with both networks available in their area. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepanshuchg:
For a while my phone is taking a lot much time to charge than it usually take earlier.

So today i installed this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free

And after i connect my mobile to charger this app usually shows that my phone is having max current:400/500 which shud be 999 instead. (Read app description)

After i disconnect charger and connect it back 3-4 times i get a rating of 700 or sometimes even 900(max) but after letting the mobile charge for a while this automatically decreases to 300-400.

And also from the time i bought the phone(4 months back) charger usually gets somewhat hot(not warm) but i ignored that issue.

So what do u think the fault is in-charger/phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MIKEMON:
Do not use such an application, let the phone discharge to zero to turn off and recharge to full.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad-Matty:
Hi,

so here's another frustrated user whose dhd doesn't boot after he's been messing around with it.

I ordered a now back cover because the camera glass was broken. Disassembly went just fine. After putting the pieces together, I tried to boot the phone.

Now at this stage, the flash cover, the battery cover (that little thing on the left side) and this other lid that goes over the part where the SIM and SD cards go ARE still not attached. Also the screws aren't in yet.

I put the battery in and started the phone. And it booted perfectly! I was pretty relieved, then put in the screws, plugged in all the remaining parts and tried to boot again - nothing. I see the bootscreens - first the white HTC logo and then the android boot screen. I have a custom rom (jelly time) installed and when you boot it, you can see the jellytime logo flashing before it goes into home screen. It flashes allright but at some point it just stops and nothing happens.

I can go to bootloader, tried a full wipe and reflashed the rom. Then it goes to the "updating apps"-screen (don't know the actual text in english, as my screen language is german). After this it says something like "starting apps". And that's where nothing happens. The little circle keeps on turning forever but it never actually goes into the system.

Have I finally managed to brick my phone or is there anything I could try?

EDIT: I should maybe add, that when the boot screen animation stops, the orange LED starts flashing.

I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramdesai:
Can you try clean wipe and installing the rom again.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad-Matty:
I did that multiple times. The problem is solved now. After disassembling the device and putting it back together then doing a full wipe everything works again.

Can't say what exactly the problem was, but - thank god - it's gone now! :)

Do you guys recommend a highspeed microSD card to use for gaming? I heard i could use a app called foldermount to move games to the external sdcard. Thanks in advance. =)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nickhimself:
I don't see how a faster SD card would affect gaming on your phone. I personally picked up a Samsung 64GB Pro microSDXC Extreme Speed (UHS-1) Class 10 Memory Card and have had no issues with it. I just felt like getting a Samsung card for a Samsung phone seemed like a smarter fit. My Razr Maxx had some SanDisk SD card that never had any issues, so I guess the most important factor would be reliability and cost.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sppatel:
I would recommend scandisk ultra or above series.

I flashed last night ARHD 21.0 and lyapota mod. I had a very busy day and unfortunately my phone discharged completely, i pluged it in to charge and the red led for charging is blinking and the phone was not turning on, after a few minutes i managed to turn it on but displayed unnable to charge and turned off again. It's the first time it does that, i was on ARHD 20 and had no problem. It might be a problem with the kernel letting the batery to drain completly? I don't know what to do now because i can't go for warranty because i do not have the stock rom. When it was on even if it was pluged into the wall it still discharged. Any ideas? (excuse my english)

For question 3 , no you can't run a usb hdd unless it is externally powered...

Alright guys?

I want to go back to gingerbread, after having been tempted by the bright lights of ICS, and realising that actually they really aren't that bright. I've played with all sorts of roms, from aurora to shendu to pacman to cyanogenmod 10, all over the place. I've only very recently realised that the best thing for my phone, is to head on back to gingerbread, and install cm7.2.

But I can't. I keep trying a million different methods, and my phone simple responds with 'update failed'.

This is what's in the .log file:

Failure: OSBL°æ±¾¼ì²éÊ§°Ü.

dload_sd_ram_data_proc->(retry >= DLOAD_RETRY) failed!

Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong here?

I've tried it with no battery, same result.

I've followed the guides on here, same result.

I've tried only flashing part 2, same result.

Can someone please talk me through this? It's doing my head in and I just want a phone that works. :(

Going back to gingerbread

Do you have a nandroid backup of any gingerbread or froyo rom with 404020 baseband? for downgrading to GB without nandroid backup, try to flash 404020 baseband first and flash gb rom after all wipes.

I have no backups at all, sorry. :(

How do I go about flashing 404020?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] gkalen:
It can't be happened like this.

Try to reflash official ics with all steps and after that, boot the phone once to stock ics and then flash step 2 from official gb.

Note.

Rename the step2 to, UPDATE.APP , if you're not rename it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trionix:
Okay, I've done it.

I used roadkil's disk image to install the froyo. Then I flashed gingerbread 572, and it installed, finally. Excellent stuff!

BUT now the phone is network locked (I think). It's refusing to connect to the network. I installed the cm7.2 rom (which incidentally is very nice to use), but yeah. I can use it for everything, other than as a phone.

Any ideas? I need it unlocked tomorrow, because I have a date and if my phone doesn't work, I can't contact the girl! Help! :D

Please tell us that you have -51 .

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tux_mind:
hi all,

i'm going to support multiple android roms loading in my kernel_chooser + root_chooser project.

in few words it will be a powerful bootloader for android.

this is what it will be able to do ( many points are yet working ):

kernel loading thought kexec

boot from external devices

boot from subfolders

custom background

change android /sytem partition

change android /data partition

wipe android /cache partition

what i'm asking to you it's to make your android rom's kernel kexec-ready, applying them a kexec guest patch.

thus to make them ready to load for me.

if not i have to patch your kernel every time you modify it.

kernel_chooser and root_chooser are hosted here: https://github.com/tux-mind/tf201-dev

they are made for the asus transformer prime ( TF201 ), but they can run on any android device with your help.

i will add you to the github collaborators if you want to help.

now we are working on multiple android roms support.

thanks in advance for your time.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] HTCDreamOn:
[MENTION=4525984]tux_mind[/MENTION] sounds like an interesting idea. So this works for all device's kernels? Once I apply the patch to my kernel source, what happens after that? I'll make sure to follow your progress, good work :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tux_mind:
thanks :)

yes, this should work for all devices, except for a little tuning of the partition with the configuration data ( /data ).

i have to make it to self-detect the /data partition.

let's say for example that you want to use it on your HTC Vision.

i have to build an host kernel by the stock one applying the host kexec patch.

than i have to build an android boot image which contains kernel_chooser as initrd and the above kernel.

this android boot image will be written to your current one though fastboot.

after that kernel_chooser will be able to load any kernel patched with the guest patch.

obviously the loaded kernel must be made for that device ;)

it can also load a custom initrd and use a custom kernel CMDLINE.

so, after i made a HTC Vision kernel_chooser, your rom it's ready to load if you applied the guest patch to you kernel.

i can't explain well how to make you rom "bootable" because we are developing this ;)

but if your kernel is kexec-loadable it will be supported by kernel_chooser.

i will update you in the next days ;)

bye!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dtrail1:
Really great idea! As it support other devices I can throw in my kernel which is a kexec one for the Motorola RAZR, because of our locked bootloader. The question is: how different are the methods to use kexec?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] HTCDreamOn:
[MENTION=4525984]tux_mind[/MENTION] this'll sound really stupid but how do actually patch our kernels for this? Do I have to build kexec from here or something?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tux_mind:
kexec it's a syscall, so it's the same on every arm device.

there is a good explaination here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2104706

look at the "Compatibility patch".

for my tf201 the guest patch is this: http://git.lilstevie.geek.nz/?p=ubu...ch;h=54c2e480682afb0629f3854dfea4154f528421e5

which is almost the same...

i hope that almost all kernels have the same host/guest patch, in order to save us a lot of work.

the patch isn't need for kexec, but for hardboot kexec, thus to physically shutdown and restart the device with your kernel, from 0.

the standard kexec it's a assembly jump to 0 ( jmp 0x0 ) with the new kernel loaded in the .text section.

but the standard method don't reinitialize the devices and many other things that could rest in a undefined state.

btw, i have almost done my work.....i'm fighting the android udev which is overwriting my symlinks..

see you!
