I'm pretty sure its already established a T-Mobile RUU will not enable AWS HSPA+ on our phones. Given how a Qualcomm chipset has always operated, its going to be an NV variable that will enable it. Has anyone had any luck getting QXDM to work with our phones? Or the 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' command?
[One (M7) General] SaHiLzZ:
How is it established already? T-Mobile RUU just showed up couple days ago...
[One (M7) General] Product F(RED):
Because that's how it works on the Galaxy S4 and Note 2.

Sent from my Galaxy Note 2
[One (M7) General] PcFish:
Also, these forums would be booming with people that applied the RUU and enabled it if it were possible.
[One (M7) General] emailer33:
Not only that, T-Mobile users have already applied other RUUs and verified they did not lose AWS.

Huge!

http://www.androidcentral.com/att-htc-one-receiving-update-enable-new-frequency-bands

Software upgrade is enabling 850/1900 LTE (Band 2 / Band 5) on ATT HTC One.

Based off this, it MUST be possible to also enable AWS HSPA on the ATT HTC One since it already supports AWS LTE.
[One (M7) General] SaHiLzZ:
Thought the same, when I saw it. They have a special update, wonder whats the difference vs RUU.. if someone can decrypt the OTA and take peek what it is changing?!
[One (M7) General] WorldIRC:
I'm wondering if there's a firmware / HBOOT update integrated in that OTA.
[One (M7) General] SaHiLzZ:

So... probably baseband changed.
[One (M7) General] WorldIRC:
We've tried installing T-Mobile modems and what not with no luck -- it has to be more than simply modem update. Here's hoping its a simple firmware / hboot update (which with S-OFF is super easy).
[One (M7) General] Product F(RED):
Not really; AT&T LTE devices starting with the Note 2 support those 2 bands for LTE. Being able to use a frequency on LTE does not mean it's compatible on HSPA+. For example, the phone can do 1800 MHz 2G, but not 1800 MHz HSPA+ or LTE.

In general though, there should be a way to enable it. It's probably NV-memory related like on the S4 and Note 2. That's how the AWS mod for the S4 and Note 2 works; you use QPST to make a backup of the T-Mobile models and restore it on the AT&T models. As long as you don't update or flash a modem, it sticks. If you do, you just do the mod again.
[One (M7) General] karnovaran:
Sounds reasonable. And the problem we're having is that QPST isn't working on the Ones?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
I'm developing app that allows to hide soft keys without modifying the system and without reboot. In only hides soft keys and leaves notification bar intact. After hiding soft keys I replace them similar auto hiding bar with Back, Home, Recent Apps and Menu buttons.

[YOUTUBE]yWEspW14aac[/YOUTUBE]

It does NOT modify system files. If something unplanned happens, just reboot your device and it will restore your stock navigation bar.

Unique Features:

* Hide soft keys on any rooted device (Phone UI only).

* Auto hiding navigation bar replacement - swipe trigger upwards to show it.

Differences to other status bar hiding apps:

* Does not remove notification bar

* Does not modify system

* No need to reboot

* Stock Notification panel and settings panels are fully working

* Stock recent apps list is fully working

* No problems with receiving phone calls

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.hidesoftkeys

I'm collecting new ideas for future updates :o
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
0.93:

- Added Google Now button when Home is hovered. Added animation.

- Added option to hide QuickNav bar when empty space on bar is pressed.

- Added option to keep/hide QuickNav bar when pressed anywhere else on scren.

- Added option to delay bar hide after pressing soft button. Pressing new button resets delay.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] microchip88:
Will this work on my nexus using 160 dpi for tablet mode??
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
1) CM is not supported yet. Stock roms and PA are supported.

2) App allows to hide navigation bar on stock rom without loosing notification bar and without modding the system.

3) Quick NavBar from this app or Pie is matter of taste. I prefer bar as it allows to execute multiple Back's, or click multiple buttons, but even if you like Pie you can use app to hide soft keys and disable Quick NavBar.

Only Phone UI is supported at the moment, but N7 with just notification bar usable and soft keys hidden looks cool. I have N7 myself.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
0.94:

- Theming. Select any PNG for buttons, for example: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1413582

- Shortcut to show Quick NavBar. If you like Quick NavBar, now you can disable trigger and use GMD Gesture Control to show it.

- Short Google Now button delay.

- Button spacing slider

- Trigger color picker and transparency slider.

- Support for devices without soft buttons - Galaxy Note's and similar phones.

- Changed auto hide delay slider to milliseconds.

I bought the PRO version trough the app with one google sync account, but when i use two google accounts to sync in my nexus 7 the app lock PRO features and only reconize my second google account. I bought the pro version with the first account and i can't switch to this account when i click to unlock PRO version. How can i fix this without delete one of my accounts?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
0.95:

- Trigger now auto hides (become transparent) in full screen apps like YouTube, video and games. You can still show Quick NavBar with swipe in full screen.

- Added built in themes: NEXUS, NEXUS2, GALAXY, XPERIA, RAZR, HONEYCOMB

- Custom... theme - user can select custom images for buttons.

I think you need to setup same google play account on your second user. I just use standard Google Play api :(.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] db2:
Works great on my 1st Gen N7 with 4.3, but a number of apps (including Chrome) don't display app thumbnails properly in the stock app switcher while this is enabled. They appear as a black box with a few UI elements visible. Disabling AutoHide immediately corrects it. Works lovely otherwise.

hello.

is it correct that the anker extended battery for the s4, should be showing a capcity of 2600mah in battery monitor pro?

is it because it is 2 x 2600 batteries joined together?

bit confused.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vectron:
To my knowledge battery Mon pro won't be able to automatically determine accurate capacity of the battery when you just plug it in. It has to calculate it through extended use by monitoring discharge rate, and even that is not accurate.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] hendry0292:
anker 5200

same as me,

i try using battery doctor or du battry saver but it's only show 2600 mah in system.

i wonder how to make it show 5200mah
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] z50king:
just watch the voltage. You will know what it's got left by watching the voltage drop after a few days. The cheap apps are telling you 2600 because that's what the phone comes with. It's written in
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] BklynNetschamps:
Use Android Tuner or battery calibration on appstore, they give actual voltage

Sony has certified two new firmware's at PTCRB !!!

The first one based on 4.1.2 (i think), it is the 10.1.1.A.1.319 at Jun 4, 2013.

The second one based on 4.2.2 or maybe 4.3 (i think), it is the 10.3.A.0.407 at Jun 4, 2013, too.

Done it on my first XZ, now if something goes wrong with this one theyll send it to repair and if i flash another rom even official sony im sure theyll use that as an excuse not to fix my phone.

[Xperia Z General] Michealtbh:
It's impossible to tell if an official rom has been flashed through flashtool

provided you did not unlock your bootloader
[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
Unlocking bootloaders has nothing to do with Flashtool. But yes, as long as you don't unlock your bootloader you can pretty much do whatever you want.
[Xperia Z General] Dsteppa:
We're talking about flashing with flashtool, but how many people that own the phone never heard/went on XDA how many of them never heard of flashtool. All of those people rely on their operators to push updates.

exactly.

the ones that does one way or another find xda, and as the methods to update here are 90% of the time very safe...
[Xperia Z General] :
Unless your phone from country "x " from provider "1" and you flashed to country "y" provider "n" so to be safe make a backup from your original blobs and take the time and learn how to create your "backup.ftf" ... At some point, could save your phone... Occasionally.

What's happening!?? Since I have my phone, 2 months. I had 3 updates. 350 to .434 than. 253 now we have more??? is there's something wrong with the phone, to push that much update out??? So soon?

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
That's right. Before flashing anything to your phone, it's always a good idea to create a backup of the original firmware customization, so that you can easily restore your phone to factory state if required, especially if it's difficult to find an FTF file online with your customization.

Luckily, there is also a way to return to your original customization without FTF file, but it requires a rooted phone with a locked bootloader:

[GUIDE] Download ANY firmware customization with SUS and create an FTF with Flashtool

I'm very happy that Sony is taking software updates seriously for its flagship phone. The more updates, the better the phone can become.

After .253 I went back to .434 newer doesn't not mean better at all...

My best battery experience has been with 253. One Phone One world, in Android is like that. I will not upgrade to 307, i`ll wait for 4.2.2 or 4.3
[Xperia Z General] dinaz92:
May be the 10.3.A is a Google Edition firmware, not Sony like style.
[Xperia Z General] viper001:
One of the best things about 253 is the increased contrast and change in the UI base color from gray to black. battery life, not so much since it's either the same or worst for some people.

after the update to 253, i've noticed that the heat generation is worse. DL's kernel fixed that by being able to Undervolt.

hopefully, future firmware updates will eventually solve the issues we've been having.

I've seen a lot of complaints in the forums that range from "too much updates" to "useless updates, since the improvements are available through XDA Dev patches".

All i can say is that since the "improvements" developed here by our awesome Dev's are being incorporated by Sony, means that they (Sony) are listening to their customers while also introducing their own fixes for problems that they've discovered on their own or complaints by users that our Devs haven't fixed yet. The great thing about this is that those people who keep their phones stock will also have what us modders are getting, and we won't have to keep flashing the "improvements/fixes".

Sony is a Developers dream right now (i.e. AOSP by Sony:good::good::good:). No other, bar none, company (aside from google, but that's another story) is as open with sources and as dedicated with updates (on the flagship Z, AFAIK).
[Xperia Z General] anirudhks:
yes very much possible as we have seen about 1 or 2 weeks that it takes to release that firmware from the approved date , so this might be the hint of the Jun26th rumored
[Xperia Z General] zodiac100:
I'm sort of leaning towards that position myself. I find 253 to be less productive especially when gaming. A lot more lag!!!
[Xperia Z General] :
Agreed, You just proved my point... I don't say sony should stop. Remember the lack of updates put off a lot of xperia s users. I dont say all updates are crap but i didn't find what i was looking for. Perhaps someone did ... "whitescreen calibration" for example :p:o:laugh:
[Xperia Z General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
There's nothing new about the new firmware?
[Xperia Z General] :
For UK Generic the best is .434 i've tried .253 not again... my battery wasn't last for a full day, gaming performance dropped significantly. I was losing signal intermittently.

Be patient i say... ok , i had xperia s before and changed because of late update.

Hope xz isn't traveling on the same wagon. :rolleyes:

How many times do you want to keep spouting this? We know what your opinion is, we don't need it in every thread.

Personally I like the 307 build.it works well in the UK. Camera is now very good battery life is better than the (in comparison horrible and buggy 434).

I also like we have a rapid build release schedule. You may not, but don't keep trying to put others off, just because you don't like it.
[Xperia Z General] scorpi786:
I agree for me 307 is the best, camera is better then woeful 253 and screen is better then 434. battery life for me has been better on 307 and 253.

[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
My /Removable/MicroSD is starting to corrupt. I've been editing scripts on my MicroSD with ES note editor. It started today with files not overwriting other files with the same name, then progressed into edited files saved with corrupt or no data at all, then a few files disappeared, then a directory became corrupt and I could not see a file that ES told me I was overwriting with another file with the same name, and now I am loosing full directories. Is this a partition issue or is the whole card going/gone bad? The card is as factory shipped. I have never formatted or partitioned it.

I have unmounted and remounted the card. That allowed me to edit and save for a few hours. Then another corrupted file happened. I just took the card out and reinserted it as this fixed a similar problem I had a while ago but it only happened once and went away until now, so we'll see if it just wasn't seated properly. One of the 2 directories that disappeared came back after reinserting the card but the second is still missing. I had already backed up my scripts, and now I will back up the entire card to disk.

Does this sound like its going or gone South, or will pulling all the data off, formatting the card, and putting it all back on work to fix it? Is it safe to trust this card anymore or should I RMA it as it should still be under warranty? Its a Sandisk 64 SDXC and not "officially" compatible and was wondering about that as well. I've had it for about 6 mos. I had hoped by spending the little extra $ and picking a name brand it would be more reliable but I guess I got a bad one despite the on-average Sandisk quality. Any advice would be appreciated.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
So far, I've only once suspected my microSD (as in yoru case a 64 GB Sandisk UHS-1 Class card) to have gone bad. (Re)formatted it with Gparted (was running data2sd at the time, kicked that out, too) and it has been going strong since without a single hitch.

I'd try and format it, doesn't hurt, only takes time, and it satisfies your tinkering needs at the same time. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
Thanks for the reply. What is interesting and seems far-fetched to be coincidental is the corrupted directories are the directories that I am constantly editing and saving files to - My scripts dir and its sub-directories. Guess they mean it when they say flash was not designed to be constantly written to. I can't *believe* I have cycled it to its limit just editing scripts over a 6 mos span. I couldn't have saved files more than a couple thousand times if that.

Waterproof**, x-ray proof**, temperature proof**, shockproof**, but NOT write-proof**
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Good advice. Always make one backup more than you think you need. :)

Probably. ExFAT is a proprietary and patented Microsoft filesystem, and support for it in our TF700 is through a proprietary closed-source third-party kernel module that contains this licensed "technology".

You could try running chkdsk in Windows on the card to detect and fix filesystem errors.
[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
Funny how they don't even support exFAT in XP without an extension. Maybe it was developed after XP was released. I would assume it is supported by default in W7 and above?

Question: Do you know what is the su password for the terminal app in GParted Live? Or is this limited to GNU staff use??

Do I "sudo gparted" or "sudo passwd root" and set a new password??
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Good guess. :) See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=gparted+live+root+password :)

You can run "sudo -i" to just get a root shell if you want.
[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
Looks like my windows\system32 dir has a 2004 date on it. So just before it came out. Nice they have a patch now.

lmgtfy.com is very cool! I've never seen _that before. Really a good way to say "why can't YOU just Google it YOURSELF". Yes, I already followed the same link to get the commands I asked about.

I couldn't figure out a way to get a Logitech bluetooth mouse working in Gparted Live. Probably need linux drivers?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
That's a live distro for partitioning stuff, not for supporting all kinds of exotic hardware. Most likely it doesn't even have any bluetooth stack. Use a full desktop distribution like Mint if you want support for bluetooth input devices.
[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
Yeah, I figured as much but I thought you possibly have a trick.

Cinnamon or Mate desktop? Live iso version available somewhere (couldn't find one)? Never mind, I think I got it. I don't need you to send me another lmgtfy link. But still, Cinnamon or Mate desktop?

Ok, here's my problem. I need to make a bootable CD (not DVD). The iso for Mint 15 Cinnamon is 923MB. It won't fit on a 700MB CD, and my PC can't boot off DVD or USB. Any suggestions besides having to partition a HDD to install a dual-boot configuration which I don't want to have to do just to run Linux once in a while. I would like a Live CD instead. Reduced size minimal distro somewhere to be found?

Ok, found one here for Linux Mint 13 Maya. Hope its not someone's hack. But I think its a better option than Plop. I don't want to start hacking my Windows PC all up just to get Linux. If its any more hassle than burning a CD I'll just use GParted with a corded mouse.

Only 7 available seeds for this torrent, and only 1 is up now. Popular item! (ha). Had it going with 4 but I was hogging too much bandwidth and had to pause fpr a bit then restart. When it restarted, looks like 3 of my seeds blew away in the wind. Looks like tomorrow then...I was hoping to burn the iso and play with it tonight. Oh wait, just got another 1 back. Now were up to 100kB/s. Whoopee

You have a strange PC. Or no DVD drive? :)

All PCs that I know (that have been produced in this millennium) can boot from DVD or USB with correct BIOS setting and a correctly formatted bootable medium.
[Asus Transformer TF700] elfaure:
Yes I know. I'm cheap and old school with PCs, what can I say. The rest of my devices are current offering. I haven't bought a new PC for over 10 years. Its an older "failed" CAD station that was slated for the dumpster about 3 years ago, then being about 3-4 years old, because our admin was too lazy to test for a simple problem - a failed RAM SIMM. I resurrected it, replaced the failed 512 SIMM and added two more, added a scavenged drive (now 3), and now its my home $100 desktop (replacing the free Pentium I had but was too slow to use). It already had the Quadro FX 3800 video card with a dual core Xeon CPU @ 3.33 GHz. But no DVD drive, only CD drive. BIOS does not support boot from USB either.

Its faster than my old work Dell Precision 690 before I got my new 6-core Xeon T3500. So those were my limitations to work with. And I think I found the best possible solution with Mint 13 Maya iso CD. Looks like Mint 15 just was released. Beautiful OS by the way, I checked out some uTube on it last night. Can't wait to test drive it. Might even make an MS defector out of me. Linux seems to run well on older hardware with slower CPUs vs Windows on the same hardware, so I'm hoping it can breath new life into this semi-archaic box I call my desktop. Now you see why I'm on the tablet so much.
