[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
When you swipe away recent apps you are essentially "exiting" the app safely where as when you use a task manger application you are force closing the application on the spot. This is not the same as "killing" the app in a technical sense what is happening is two things. The first thing that is happening when you swipe away a recent app is it kills any background process or empty processes of the application in a safe manner (Check out this section of the Android developer guide for more info on what this is about) unlike a task manger which just kills the entire application process negatively effecting performance. Second what is happening is the new API is used to tell any services of the action that is what removed so that the system can appropriate action such as starting a new process or service (For more on this see this section in the Android developer documentation). In answering you RAM question Android manages it's own memory which is why task killers once again mess this up and hurt rather then help performance. The recent application list shows what apps were recently used and clearing this will tell the applications to exist free some memory but some of their background services and tasks will still always run in the background as part of the app using some memory and battery. To explicitly and completely stop an app from memory you can go to Android built in application manger under System Settings > Application Manger and then go to the running tab and see what applications are running in the background. Overall, removing recent applications will help battery life but as previously mentioned the apps background processes will use some of system's battery and memory resources. If you are interested in learning more about this I would recommend checking out this.

My phone didnt charging with USB anymore... 3 times ago i turned off the phone em plug USB and try to charge, it started the phone normally but no charging... And now, trying any method and any USB works :(

My usb was bricked??? There is a way to know about it?? Ah log or a app that shows if a hardware are working??

Or any solution???
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SohamJ:
is your computer recognizing the phone when you connect it ?

if it is and charging is not working means that the charging pins of usb might be broken

I think the inner pins of a usb cable are for charging , they might be damaged .

Try using another usb cable

Hi,

I want to connect an external speaker and microphone to my Qtek9090. I thought the easiest way to do it is to simply cut the headset wire, plug the 2.5mm connector in and connect my speaker and mic to those wires. I have taken apart the headset that comes with it and there's the following wires in it:

wire1:

- blue

- copper(1)

- red

- red/green

wire2:

- white

- copper(2)

From taking apart the volume slider I think blue and copper(1) are the wires for the audio (L&R). But I'm not sure. I can't figure out what the mic and ground wires are :?

Does anyone know more? Anyone tried looking at this?

Grtz,

DUTCH
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] pleun:
just feed a low level audio signal to the wires. You should distinguish left and right. The remaining one must be the mic....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] veletron:
or...

buy an adapter. Both expansys and proporta.com sell adapters.

Nigel
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] DUTCH:
I've been searching for those adapters and found many. The only problem is: none of them have a microphone connector :? .

Now I might have an option here, but i'm not sure this one suits the Qtek9090 (Blue Angel) I have: if I use this one. I could connect my speakers to the stereo 3.5mm headphone jack and my microphone to the mono 3.5mm headset jack.

The only thing is: what part of the headset connector is the microphone? The tip?

Grtz,

DUTCH

No, I've tried with a Nokia wired headset and it didn't work at all.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] DUTCH:
I ordered the audio connector mentioned (this one).

When recording a note for example everything works just fine, BUT when in 'phone mode' (making a phone call) it doesn't work.

Anyone got a clue/solution for this? Or should I start thinking about making this work via the 22-pin connector?

Grtz,

DUTCH
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] GaMeR64:
9090 should support audio from the bottom connector. I assume you want to use it in your car. If you want to connect a external speaker you should amplify the signal. There is a DIY carkit on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/Connectors . Maybe this could be handy. Also my phone supplier told me that in about a week there will be a complete carkit WITH decent Carcomm cradle and GPS connection (all wired so no BT connections needed). I will buy this when it is released so will keep you guys updated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
I purchased this one for my old TMobile xda I and the Blue Angel.

Both are headphone jacks and niether cna be used for a mic. There is a built in mic and mute button (that you have to hold)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobsk8:
I have a Nexus 4 that is about 2 weeks old. I love the phone, all except for the Bluetooth behavior. I couple my bluetooth heart rate monitor to the N4, and in order to do this in the morning, I have to restart the phone almost 100% of the time. I can't even turn the BT on with the slide switch, as soon as I push it to on, it goes right back to the off position. As soon as I restart the phone, all is well. Now I have read numerous complaints on other forums and on the Google help page with similar Bluetooth connection problems. Google recommended in several places that a total reset of the phone would fix these problems, which I thought was ridiculous, since my phone did this from day one. Anyway, some people have reset their phone as many as 3 times, and the problem is still there, so obviously, that was not a fix. Other Nexus 4 users have apparently got an RMA, a new phone, and have the same issue.

So it sounds like this is a software issue, and hopefully the new version of Jellybean will fix this problem, but somehow, I think that this issue is not being addressed, Any thoughts on this? h t t p ://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/mobile/nVjWKiUvvPs

Is it possible to put the galaxy note 2 keyboard on the One? Does it need to be rooted?

I really like the 5 row setup. I tried hackers keyboard as an alternative but didn't like it. Too many extra keys.

The note 2 keyboard was amazing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] l3thalsab3r:
Have you tried using Kii Keyboard? It has an option for the number row and when it shows up too (portrait only, landscape only, both). Only thing though is that it's a paid feature, although they let you try it out for an hour.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jeffreykime:
I'll give it a try. I've not used that before.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jeffreykime:
The Kii keyboard seemed to do the trick... But I'd still love to get the note 2 keyboard for free instead of spending the money. Is that part of the Samsung os?

Can it work on sense?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mokash34:
I don't think it would be as simple as installing an app if that's what you are thinking. Keep in mind the Note 2 keyboard has the handwriting input option and other Note 2 specific features. I, too, would love to have the keyboard. I think someone more experienced with this stuff than you and I could figure it out but if I were you, I'd just look for the best alternative.

Hey guys....I know there are several similar threads but I just have a quick question.

Rooted my vzw GS4 no problem with bhp090808's great all in one tool yesterday. Also installed TWRP.

For some reason my internal mic completely quit working in the past 3 hours...I can't answer phone calls or even voice search (speakerphone works though). I assume it's some sort of hardware failure.

about to do this so I can take my phone back for an exchange tomorrow.

http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=237

Will that take it completely back to stock including recovery? Do I have to separately get back to stock recovery to get rid of TWRP first?

Thanks a million.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swifteagle:
Hi there,

Can you please help me, I am a NOOB and I been looking and trying to fix my phone for a week and I cant work it out, therefore I come here seeking your help, I would very much value ideas or solutions you could provide.

I will be as brief as possible.

When I try to flash a new Rom, my phone gets stuck on the boot screen, there are only two roms that load, one freezes, the others roms wont boot.

All started like this:

I originally had RR JB V3.1.3 AOKP 4.2.1 I9100

Then changed to

AllianceROM_I9100_XWLSS_V8, look good but thought of trying the aokp i9100 jb-mr1 milestone-1, when trying to swap I made the mistake of doing a factory reset to find out that I could not access the roms on my sdcard.

so I then installed (I9100_CODE_I9100XXLP2_CL57619_REV02_user_low_ship.tar) it all worked as it went to stock. I rooted the phone again, tried installing the AllianceRom, but it didnt want to load, tried the Aokp again it did work, but then once the screen turns off it wont respond...

tried super nexus, did not want to work. tried updating CMW, it doesnt want to... Tried Jellybam, did not load...

So I tried and reloaded RR JB V 3.1.3 as I already have and it works, it is the only rom that works successfully, But if I try to go on to CMW, it doesnt work anymore, and it seems that once I try to use CMW it makes the rom unstable... So it seems that I can only use one Rom at the moment. Clearly I must of done something wrong at some point but I dont know what. I dont even know what to search for to fix it.

I tried different tools to see if they would help and no luck, such as, GS2ROMNuke, Romreset and Romwipe, Darkside cache and superwipe.

I hope someone can help me out in working out what I did wrong or what is happening.

Thank you so much for your time and help.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swifteagle:
Thanks for the tip... I did try however I dont have access to cwm anymore once I install RR.

The only way I can get CWM to work again, is installing speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-21- through Odin but then the rom doesnt work anymore.

I tried the kernel nuke, I have tried installing siyah kernel with RR, but no luck it doesnt go into cmw. keep getting a message Kernel Panic...

anymore suggestions?

Could I have done something on the mounts? I dont know, but I cant think of what is going on.

Did you wipe before installing your rom?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kursah:
Well..did some research about 7 months ago or so, got two of these phones. One for the GF and one fore me, shortly after the rom output slowed down but there were already a few good options so it worked out well in the end. But I thought I was getting a better phone than I did. Recently my phone has decided it does not like to charge anymore, but intermittently will charge. I had it plugged in all night last night, charged 8% at some point. Most of the time, it wont' detect the charge cable is plugged in..PC shows an error when trying to install drivers. I have tried a new battery, without Sim card, cleared data and all caches and tried a Rootbox which it's had from the day I got it and the newer CM 10.1 r2..no change.

So I am calling this phone junk unless someone has any suggestions. I am kind of SoL financially and really don't have more than $150 to spend, maaaaybe $200 if the phone is going to be substantially more durable. I'll miss the screen, power and camera on the Glide I know..but it is what it is..I'll save it as a parts donor for her phone. I am on Straight Talk which recently went Verizon towers in my area as well and seems that's also the trend for the phones they're selling in my area so it seems maybe I'm more limited to their selection as well? Anyways, need a new phone and have a tight budget..can you please give me some suggestions? Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] babe1:
Have you tried a different Rom, cable, battery or usb port? In my experience, a new cable and battery did the trick, also tightening up the tension ears on my usb ports.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Artemis-kun:
Sad to have to say but that'll be your charging port failing. Tends to happen seemingly easier with micro usb since it's so much smaller... but I have seen this same issue happen with micro usb ports on a number of devices. You could probably get it repaired for a reasonable cost, actually. Try contacting your service provider, or finding a place that repairs electronics.

Can always swap icons out with ATT stock. It's in either SystemUI or Framework-res. For icons, all you have to do is drag-n-drop from one apk to the next, no need for apktool or any of that. You need to be deodexed to do this.

but nothing happens...I think I killed it
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] cruisin-thru:
It isnt dead, you will need to download xdatools, then go cook a rom in the kitchen, at the bottom of the screen in rom kitchen choose "card flashing, I think its the second option on the list. Once you have downloaded the file you will need an sd memory card of at least 64 meg and a usb card reader/write. Launch xdatools, choose the downloaded file as "source", from the "drop down" menu in destination choose your sd card in reader/writer. When the card has been programmed place the card in your phone, push stylus in reset hole while holding down power button, when prompted to program rom push centre of 4 way navigation button. Make sure the phone is charged before doing this. Once done push unscrewed stylus top into the hole next to headphone socket, push once only, wait one minute, push once more, you should now have a phone that reboots with your chosen rom. There is another method for programming using sd card and xdarit. To download xdatools, just place your mouse pointer over the word xdatools, a popup menu will appear with option to download. The popup sometimes is delayed so be patient for a few seconds with pointer over the word xdatools.
