Flash the boot.img from the viper rom in fastboot mode,perform a full wipe in recovery and install the viper rom.

Or make a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid......

Always perform a full wipe before installing a new rom or with restoring a nandroid backup
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] carlton:
On my old XDAII I remember doing a bit of housekeeping to clean-up some unused (or rarely used) items in the Windows folder like AFlashMan, CFlashMan, IA_Caller_ID, NFlashMan, TFlashman etc.

I moved all these into a temp folder because there was a problem whereby these items were using valuable system resources/processes and were generally unused so could be safely 'moved'. It was something I read about on this Forum.

Does anyone have a similar list of stuff that can be safely deleted or moved from the Windows folder (or Startup folder) on the XdaIIs? I notice that some file names have disappeared (or maybe they have just been renamed something else?!). I want to clean up any of the unnecessary rubbish that Microsoft and/or O2 installs.

Cheers

Hi Guys,

I have been experiencing battery issues where as the battery is dropping from 100% to 90% overnight with (Idle Phone no missed calls or messages) tonight will try in Airplane mode just making observations.

WIFI =OFF

DATA=OFF

GPS=OFF

SYNC=OFF

where as earlier it use to just drop by 2% ,I've always user Redpill Kernel and gave wonderful battery life,

Rom is monxDified

I've installed Battery Stats Pro it shows the Battery eaters are Facebook and XDA but i uninstalled these also still the issue persists ,

My note 2 is just about 3months old i don't think its a battery issue or a replacement would be required,

So anybody faced some same issues or any tweaks and mods that you guys have done on your devices please share I would really appreciate .

I've Read couple of posts on Greenify and Snapdragon guru none are helping me :(

Hi,

HTC One devices in my country cannot be unlocked by code/IMEI, only by cable. A few internet-unlockers have already told me that and I have also tried a few unlock codes but they don't work. There's nothing about it on Google too. Also, local "unlockers" don't know anything about it since it's still a device very new to the market.

Can anybody help me unlock it by cable, what's the procedure, what do I need, etc. ?

If someone helps me out with this and I succeed to unlock it, I'll reward him, with money of course.

Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry novice question but, is it possible to install some of the stock Sony Apps onto a custom ROM such as CyanogenMod? I am running CyanogenMod at the moment and I love it, fast, stable, and without much battery drain. I would love to be able to use the Sony stock camera though.

Is it possible, like installing Gapps, but Sapps?

Thanks
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greglord:
Hi,

apps from Sony "usually" need SONY's own framework. Sadly, the framework itself is not opensourced and cannot be used on other roms.

[Galaxy S 4 General] frrlod:
When I came here 2 days ago hoping to get answers about the differences between i9500 and i9505, I've had a very hard time and had to look through 40+ pages of discussion. So here I am trying to create a shorter and easier list for people who want to decide.

Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505

Qualcomm APQ8064T Snapdragon 600

Quad-core 1.9ghz processor

- LTE (4G) support - most countries do not have 4G yet

- Uses battery slightly more efficiently (talk time difference is significant, 17 hours on i9505 vs 11 hours on i9500)

- Open-source, good for developers

Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500

Exynos 5 Octa 5410

Quad-core 1.6ghz processor

Quad-core 1.2gz processor (8 cores, not actually used all simultaneously)

- Sound and Camera quality are slightly better

- A little cheaper in some places

- Slightly faster than the i9505. All around I would say 5%-10% faster.

Benchmark comparisons: google "gsmarena i9505 vs i9500" - I liked this comparison as it included everything but there are many others out there.

Notice how most sentences include the word 'slightly' or 'a little' - this is because most differences are hardly noticable for the average user. LTE support and open-source may be very noticable for some.

I hope this helps with the very confusing task of choosing which one is more fitting for you. Feel free to suggest additions/changes to the list.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Steve0007:
i9505 vs i9500

This thread has some usefull information.

All comparative information between i9505 vs i9500 can be posted here
[Galaxy S 4 General] noideaforusername:
In the i9500 variant you should correct it to 1.2Ghz instead of 1.3Ghz.
[Galaxy S 4 General] zorbakun:
also add that the Audio chip is better on the i9500...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Mithrandir007:
This is something I'm not sure is true.

I've also read the GSMArena comparison and was a bit surprised because until that comparison, I've mostly seen the opposite.

Check Erica Griffin's comparison for example :https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...=KGyf72N6tEqF4_iAI_0uAw&bvm=bv.47380653,d.ZWU

On the battery thread in the General forum, you can also see that most of the time, people with the i9500 can often get more than 6 hours screen time in a 24-48 hours period (some get close to 8 hours actually), while the i9505 struggles to reach 5 to 6 hours.

I might be wrong, but this seems to be the trend.

I also got great battery on my i9500, around 6 to 7 hours screen time over 2 days last week end, but since I only got the device last thursday and I don't use it as much during the week, I'll need more time to see if this is a regular thing :)

I think that the battery will be better on the i9505 for people who do a lot of heavy gaming or other intensive tasks since the Snapdragon 600 is more efficient than the A15, but when doing light or background tasks or while the device is idle, the i9500 will consume less battery because it'll use the A7 CPU.

About the camera quality : the i9500 has the new Sony IMX135 chip (Exmor RS) which has a stacked CMOS, while the i9505 probably has a IMX091PQ (Exmor R) which is an older sensor, still a great one though :)

Also, the i9500 can record slow motion videos (up to 1/8 speed) at 720p resolution, while the i9505 can only record that at 800*450 (probably due to the newer sensor and/or the CPU as well).

I thought those might be useful info, hope this helps :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] AndreiLux:
The synthetic battery tests done by various websites usually include having a webpage refresh every x amount of seconds - it might be disadvantageous for the i9500 since it'll be firing the A15's up and down frequently. It really depends on the refresh-rate they have in their battery test scripts.

Also if I'm not mistaken (not sure), the i9505 doesn't have the dedicated Audience ES325 audio voice chip for noise cancellation.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Mithrandir007:
That would explain it then.

And I didn't know about the audio voice chip, thanks for the info :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] DevilzGtr:
I think we should list problems of the 2 devices too.

e.g i9505's audio has crackling with certain headphones

i9500 has camera startup issues? (From what I've read)

etc...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Mithrandir007:
I think the camera issue has been corrected by the newer firmwares.

At least, I never had any trouble, and I updated my phone as soon as I got it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] matheus_sc:
In me1 not have any reboot using since 22 May, in my country only advantage is cm full support.
[Galaxy S 4 General] racerex:
Wrong. Both the i9500 and the i9505 have the Audience eS325.

Besides BB/AP/RF, the only IC differences between the two solutions are the CODEC, GPS, and ISP.
[Galaxy S 4 General] AndreiLux:
Something up with their voice processing then, there are videos showing night and day differences between the two in record quality.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Cap'nO:

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putinbolo:
Hi,

I have recently bought this tablet and it´s been working great until a recent update. After the OTA update my HDMI stopped working, I mean I get no video at all and of course no sound at all. It does not detect the device. I am in the latest version 4.2.1 and 10.6.1.15.3. I bought it in the US and did the update in spain( I guess it makes no diference but just in case I mention that) I also noticed that when connected to the keyboard it seems like it drains the battery of the keyboard (it even says charging) and the result is that the keyboards battery is completely drained and the tablet is charged until the keyboard battery shows 0%. It wasnt doing that before the update. Is this just a bad update or could be some trouble related to hardware?

I contacted tech suppport and they do not know what to do. They told me to do a factory reset which I´ve done several times with no luck at all.

I do not want to ask for an RMA, since I read about some really bad experiences...Any ideas? Is it only a software issue? Is there a way to check that the hdmi connector is ok (hardware)?

Do I need to downgrade?

Thanks in advance.

Aitor.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asus_USA:
Go to your About Tablet screen and look at what Build Version you are on. Also, I would try it on a different TV or monitor to see if it behaves the same way. Try a different cable too.

As for the charging, it is normal for the tablet to use the dock's juice before using it's own. While connected, the dock will start charging the tablet as soon as the tablet dips below 70%. Because of this, the dock will always run out before the tablet.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putinbolo:
taking it back to the store

Hi,

I tried different Tvs and cables with no luck. I decided to take it back to the store and get a new one, since the HDMI feature is one of the reasons why I bought this tablet.

I´d rather get a new one than get an RMA or try to root it and void the warranty. I did not know how the dock and the tablet behaved while connected.

Thanks for your time :good:

Saw some requests for the possibility to disable the capacitive buttons. So I made 2 zips, one to disable the buttons and another to enable them again.

It's of course best used in conjunction with on screen buttons ;)

The buttons still lights up when touched, but no vibration response and the buttons are deactivated. I'll look into disabling the lights also if theres a demand for it :)

Just flash either one of the zips from recovery, and reboot.

Both are tested with Foxhounds rom (ME2), but should work on any Touchwiz roms (And possibly AOSP roms (let me know if you test it)).

Enjoy!

Hi,

I have to copy 2-3 contacts onto hundreds on sim cards.

Ideally im looking for a product that I can insert a sim card (preferably before it is removed from the credit card sized plastic holder) and copy the 2-3 contacts onto a sim manager, then simply insert a black sim, and have the device copy the few contacts across to it.

I have about 700 to do, which is why I prefer to use a device that will accept the full size card (before removing the standard/micro sim card)

Thanks in advance.

I have this USB Sim Manager but the software is for the Serial port version and not the USB version. (PS: could i load the dll for the reader and hope that the USB Driver would use it?)

application level firewall. what would that do mate?OH and also. i have TWO cpu/battery profiles in rom manager. one set for SCREEN OFF wihich i have it use 700mhz max 200 min and SCREEN ON max all the way. would that effect my active hotspot in anyway?like is being restricted by having that profile set?WAIT its always on charge while wifi is on. so if i make a new profile for when the charger is plugged in it shuold be set to full. but the screen would be off? so would those profiles clash in some way?thats why i only set 2 didnt wanna make it mess with the cpu all the time. sorry lol any help with anything is GREATLY appreaciated. im only registered on here so ill always be here now.
