Good answer, and some good links to some accessories I didn't even know existed! The only thing, though, it that the OP was asking these questions about using the Otterbox Commuter case. I have had one for quite a while and can at least answer one of your questions:

Wireless Charging with the Otterbox Commuter:

I picked up the

wireless charger back with the Palm Touchstone

off of Ebay, but was disappointed because it wasn't strong enough to charge through the case. I didn't want to waste my investment of $45, so I went the DIY route and made a hole in the back of my case the size of the touchstone. I know it sounds ghetto-tastic, but it works quite well. It sets and charges with no issue and even stays "locked in" when the headphone cord is pulled a little. Obviously, my case is less sturdy than before, but I have dropped my phone a number of times since and there has been no damage to the phone.

I have

put together a small album

showing what my phone looks like with the giant hole in the back of the case. Please forgive the poor picture quality, as I was taking them with my Transformer, which doesn't have the most stellar camera.

Hope this has been informative
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
I also have an Otter Box case. I switch between that, and the Zero Lemon 7000mAh Battery/ Case Combo. As I stated above the choices for a Dock were just Random. As there are really to many choices. Not knowing the person, or how they use the Dock. It is difficult to be very Specific. As for the thread on Wireless Charging. I pointed to that one Specifically because I know someone who is currently using that one with an Otter Box case with no issues.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5186178:
Well, I see nobody answer you yet.

You have to modify three files in /system/etc/ folder: callocation.db, dp.db, and raw_yellow_data.db. Actualy, you can delete the last one. I don't know what's happen if you delete callocation.db. In this one is a database with China areas phone codes, and in dp.db is China Operators. What you see in dialer, is a location from china based on the number stored.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5186178:
It's a different thing, because I'm sure you don't have Baidu Cloud ROM. If you have a stock ROM, you have to look in /system/app for something like CallerLocation.apk and uninstall it with a root explorer app, and if your ROM is odexed, after uninstall go to same folder and delete CallerLocation.odex, then restart your phone. It is better to enter in recovery to wipe data and cache after that or even best solution is to remove the caller app from "your_rom" zip before install. In HTC stock ROMs caller location is achieved thru some apps which includes those words in name. If you want to transalte it to english, hmmm.. I don't know. Even HTC removed that app from european versions, so...

I've been having some weird issues with the Gmail app ever since I rooted and starting using roms. It's done the same on every rom i've used. I've did a few searches on here and google and couldn't find anything.

So lets say I have quite a few read items in my inbox along with the newer unread items at the top. When I select the messages I want to delete, and then delete them, when the inbox refreshes and the deleted items go away.. the subject/sender lines in the app get all mixed up.

Lets say I have ten emails in the inbox, delete five, when the five go away, the subject for the ones I deleted seem to stay over the email that's left, but when I open it, it's the correct email I left.

Hello

I have a serious problem since ages, and i really dunno what's the problem now. This problem exists on my current and my past PDAs (Current: O2 XDA, past: Asus MyPal A620, iPaq 3670), and my computer with Windows XP and pastly on Win2003 server. Well, i start to browse the net on my PDA when its in the cradle, checking forums, web pages, email, msn, etc. and...after 20-30 mins the internet "disappears". IE cant load pages, inbox still download mail but after a while it does not, and on msn messenger, i'm online but if i try to send a message it says message cant be delivered. If i take out my pda from the cradle, then put it back, it'll work again...for 20-30 mins, or, sometimes even less. I even reinstalled my WinXP, hard reset, etc. and nothing changed. Can somebody help me please?

Thanks,

KTamas

P.S: And its not matter if i use internet or not when its in the cradle, it disappears after 20-30 w/o any usage too.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baruch6132:
Ok, so at one point, my Nexus 7 started taking about 9 hours to fully charge using the stock charger and usb cable. I thought my charger was dead so I bought a 2.1 amp amazon basics charger with a 6 foot amazon basics usb cable. It still takes hours to charge. I read online that there was a bug with Android 4.2 and charging. The reason this CANT be a hardware issue, is because it happoned out of the blue. Didn't drop it, didn't jerk the cable or bend it in the inside or anything. So what's going on? Please help!

Thanks in advance!

P.S. It looses charge when charging and watching a YouTube video now. It never used to do that.

as far as I know, it is a known issue with 4.2.2. I don't think upgrading chargers will work, I tried my iPad's still takes forever to charge. For some reason, the original USB cable works better (at least for me).

[Oppo Find 5] housry23:
It's very easy. Just flash the stock ROM. If you need to go back to stock recovery too, there's a thread in the oppo forums that has a link to it, out you could just make a backup in recovery and save the boot.img on your computer and flash it using fastboot. This phone is a lot like a nexus and is easy to root and return to stock.

Hi Friends,

My friend has K-TOUCH A11 android smartphone running Gingerbread. He forgot his pattern lock and tried entering google login and password. Nothing helps, still showing google login screen when starting the phone.

I decided to get into Android System Recovery and try factory reset.

1. This phone has three touch buttons (Home, Back, Menu) and a Power button but no volume or camera buttons. No way to get into recovery.

2. I tried adb reboot recovery and it got me into Android System Recovery (3e). The real issue starts here: There is no way to select options in recovery. If I touch menu button in restarts phone to normal mode (that is google login screen).

Please help me to reset factory settings.. Thanks in Advance.:

Yes, it's not illegal. But it does void your claim on the warranty, and if the rep was having a bad day, he could have easily turned you away for rooting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
What I have found is that although it is not " illegal " . It does not necessarily mean that you will not get a hard time about it. I have had very different experiences even in the same store. Both negative, and positive. So I've learned it's better to remove as many reasons for people to give you a hard time as possible.

[Networking] sdnvxda2:
Hi all,

I have an imode subs. which originaly is only to be used on reserved mobile phones from the operator. I could have the parameters to connect from all phones. It is working nice on my Xda2.

But the proxy they use only allows me surfing (port 80).

Therefore I would like to know how I can bypass the proxy (10.10.100.10:5080) with my own home server translating/forwarding the request from my XDA.

Example :

I connect GPRS with my XDA, I tell my Pocketoutlook to use pop server "myhomePC.com:80" and my home PC will transfer to "MyPOPsupplier:110"

Same could apply for other services...

Thanks For your help :?: :?: :?:
[Networking] pdanhieux:
not possible, it is a http proxy so it restricts which connections you make to port 80. Out of my experience with imode i know going to the proxy for POP3 does not work. The only thing which is easy and I also use for my email is http://mail2web.com. There you can check POP3/IMAP (+SSL) to read your email on your xda 2

hope this helps
[Networking] sdnvxda2:
Ever tried this one ?

hi thanks for your reply. Have you ever tried this one ?

http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=9539

Can some users of Imode on XDA try it and let us know the results ?

I can have it working... do not know why because it is only http requests.

Thanks

Stéphane

That is because it tunnels your mail over HTTP. This is only possible with MSN or hotmail accounts and not with other POP3/IMAP accounts.

• Bought S4

• Rooted via Motochopper

• Flashed Wicked v1, v2

• Tmo released MDL but wasn't invited to party because my unit is modified

• Flashed Wicked v3 which features M919UVUAMDL Base

• Odin'd MDL Radio but won't stick

• Started to revert back to original stock to build back up but chickened out because I was prolly bout to pherk some stuff up.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with my current setup. Everything works perfectly. I just want the full MDL experience.

Some expert hand holding would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Explain the "full MDL" experience... I don't get it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: Wicked v3

You need to download and flash this CWM flashable zip: http://d-h.st/J9p this will allow you to upgrade without loosing root.

This MDB-SetUIDOff zip will work on both MDB and MDL roms.

Since you are back in MDB rom and still rooted, flash the MDB-SetUIDoff in cwm or twrp then reboot the phone and flash the wicked v3.

After a successful flash be sure to go to the playstore and update SuperSU.

If you are no longer rooted, root the phone like you did before and then flash the SetUIDOff zip file in the link above.

Also don't odin flash any modems until you have successfully flashed Wicked v3 rom and it is working properly.

Before odin flashing any modems it would be a good idea to do a nandroid backup in cwm/twrp recovery.

It would also be a good idea to re-flash the MDB-SetUIDOff you have just downloaded just to be sure that your

phone will remain rooted without any further issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dragon-son:
Honestly if you want full MDL I'd say start from scratch. Full Odin restore the MDL Rom. Thread here has link to download the full MDL Rom. Then just root with cf-auto-root found here. Then install your favorite recovery. After that you should be able to flash Wicked Rom again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Out of curiosity, when flashing stock/rooted TW ROMs via custom recovery, what would be the benefit of the starting point being MDL instead of MDB? I mean, especially since they are based on MDL now as it is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: custom roms

Stock rooted or custom roms are fine, but you can only flash them if you already have ROOT

access on the newest MDL firmware.

If you only have root on the original MDB firmware then you can only flash those cwm/twrp custom roms

that are based on the original stock MDB firmware which none of the developers support any longer.

So it's always best to start off with MDL if you are planning to flash any custom roms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Hmmm, I was always under the impression that once root access was gained, recovery installed, and custom ROM flashed that you would be rooted; considering the ROM you flash is rooted. I didn't know that flashing a rooted ROM through twrp/cwm was dependent on whether your original starting point was rooted on a particular firmware/baseband.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: rooting.

That's what I used to think too, but the new galaxy S4 UVUAMDL Odin flash firmware now includes samsung's root-restricting kernel.

So you will need to downgrade the kernel or use this MDL modifier MDB-SetUIDOff to avoid that problem.

With this modifier you still will have the latest MDL kernel but it will be modified so it's no longer root-restricting.

And that's where this cwm/twrp flashable "MDB-SetUIDOff" zip file comes to play, it removes the restriction in the MDL kernel.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] JawjaBill:
Thanks to all respondents. I have a much clearer vision of what I need to do.
