I just got off the phone with the O2 tech support staff and was asking him about the status of my issue. He said that he can only check with the service center tech on monday after the Chinese New Year holidays.

what really got me mad was that he suspected that the service center tech did not actually perform the battery tests :shock: ... which means my trip to the service center was a waste of my time (including the week long wait for the set to come back) :shock: and all that baloney about the set not being faulty was not the truth... if the suspicions are to be true... this is really terrible... :evil:

I am really really upset with my whole experience with this..... :?

hope those who are having their mini's serviced in Singapore have a better experience than mine!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] polarwarp:
Hi! Just wondering what happened with your issue? I just got an o2 mini and find mine is lasting 2-3 days I think with minimum usage (although its never gotten lower than I think 30% before I actually got organised to charge it at work :))

Is there a good place for getting new (free) backgrounds?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ianlo:
Hi polarwarp,

After much insistence, I managed to get them to give me a new replacement. All the parts were overhauled. But thankfully, it worked out fine and the battery is lasting me on ave 2.5 to 3 days.

I'm not too sure about the backgrounds thingy as I don't change backgrounds at all however you could try Microsoft Windows Mobile site. They have a themes creator for you to create your own themes and backgrounds.

Other than that, sorry can't be of help.

cheers!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuaveNNR:
Hey guys.Im kinda a noob, so bear with me. I have a SGH i747 (att galaxy s3) and I rooted it on my mac using motochopper. I backed up all my apps and system data with titianium backup to my SD card, and i also backed up my stock ROM to my internal storage using ROM Manager. I then downloaded liquid smooth using my phones browser, and then I selected it within ROM manager and clicked "reboot and install' (keep in mind, i didn't wipe memory or anything) So it was stuck at the boot screen. Then i realized what i did and went and wiped data/factory reset, dalvic cache, and the other cache, within Clockworld mod recovery (vol up + power + home). After that, it worked, but only to find that all my apps were gone, and the play store and browser app didnt work. so basically softbricked however I can make phone calls and text (lost all contacts). Then i went into cwm and tried to restore my phone, at first it came up with two backups (neither of which had the name I named my backup) but said no files found and then when I mounted my storage, the bottom one said md5 mismatch but the top one worked. the top one would work for about 6 min then while it was restoring data it would reboot into liquid smooth and i would have like 3 apps i didnt have before (other times i would get stuck at the boot screen). I also tried restoring it right after I wiped data/ factory reset and cleared the caches, but then it would get stuck at the liquidsmooth boot screen. Tried pretty much everything.

I just want my phone back the way it was before root or anything, with all my data. But I backed up all my stuff besides apps to KIES, so willing to reset it to stock firmware if possible

need all the help i can get. thank you all very much

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
So i flashed a p4 rom and apparently it was not intended for my p4vzw. i know its sad. anyways no worries, got it back on akop, but now i have a unknown baseband. I am searching and searching but i can't seem to find any files on this.

so questions are

1 anyone know if there are radio files.

2 or do i have to get it back to stock and then root again.

thanks in advanced
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DefQoN_BE:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aethera:
One way to fix it

I've had similar issues lately playing around with installing CM10.1 and the modem getting messed up. I did use adb to make a modem.bin backup from stock ICS, but then could not figure out how to flash it. In the end what I did is flash the original stock ROM. Search for STOCK VZW Galaxy Tab 10.1 4G LTE Factory Firmware PDA_HC31_EG01Ba_AP352081user_CP1033580_LTE20110704_0708.tar

That will put it back to the original Gingerbread factory image. It will have to go through multiple OTA updates to get back to ICS. I know this is a pain to do, but my nandroid backup of the OTA updated stock ICS when restored did not restore the modem, and the modem.bin I created from instructions at mygalaxyway.blogspot.com/2012/09/how-to-share-your-nandroid-backup-and.html was kind of useless.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
Thanks. But i did the factory image and I still get unknown radio. Odin flashed successfully yet no modem.

I'll flash again maybe it was a fluke

Id love to have the ics radio files to flash too. when I odin the stock image it fixes nothing for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
So basically I found that my csc file is gone. The Lte factory image doesn't include it. I bet it's on purpose.

What ever the case if we get a csc file for the tab and flash it then flash radios or flash firmware then csc it should work.

That's my guess at least. What's weird is there is no factory Firmware to be found on the Samsung site for the i905. Not sure why.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkhafra:
Please let this happen please :o
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
So i am still researching this.

I am going to write Samsung mobile to see if they will release the firmware for the tab. I am sure it has to do with Verizon not wanting anyone to keep that i905 that rooted it or flashed the stock firmware.

I can't be the only one that is missing the CSC file after an odin stock firmware flash. and i think its very odd that samsung has every firmware i can think of except the i905.

Im just taking stabs here.

I am also assuming thats the problem, thats the one part of the /system that's missing.

it would be cool if anyone had a i905 with lte and posted their CSC file.

how would i go about requesting that? just post

"[request] CSC file for i905 galaxy tab 10.1"

i have never asked for a request before.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
I have done that. When i flash the stock firmware i still don't have a baseband and i can't do any updates.

I have no problem rooting. I just don't any radios.

maybe i am missing something here but once i flash back to firmware stock the radios don't stick so when i when boot up i get unknown radio and no updates are ever found.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkhafra:
I have the same problem. I tried flashing modem it works fine but when I try flashing lte_modem.bin I get an error in red writing and it doesn't flash. I've tried this with every version of Odin. I used the modem files from the full Odin image. I think it was EG01. I download it multiple times nothing has worked.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensl84:
k,

so if anyone is interested, i finnaly got around to digging and came up with a processes to get the modems back. its technical and i am sure i am doing something wrong cause i can't get it to get on the network. could be a lte chip at this point. anyways.ill try tomorrow

it must be rooted. go to dev settings and check debug and root accsess: apps and adb.

then download EFS professional. go to restore and restore. nothing will change.

flash original firmware with odin.

once it installs you can see your radios... this it where it stops. I can't get it to access LTE. it has correct time and knows its on the verizon network. but no lte.

I then rooted to see if i could carry my radio files to 4.2.2 and i can't. radio unknown. tomorrow i am going to go to VZW and ask them if its a bad sim. will update tomorrow or when i get around to it.

Update:

So it was a bad sim. once a new one was put in i got LTE but now it wont update. Ha one problem after another. So now i can't flash 4.2.2 cause i loose radio. I believe you have to be on ICS before you can flash to 4.2.2, anyways its been a few days and it still thinks its up to date.

So now i need to know how to force an update..... will update if anything else happens

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AChavitez:
So, I had my heart set on the One with Sense since it was announced and heard nothing but good reviews about it, but then the Google Edition was recently announced, it's basically a Super-Nexus. I currently have a Nexus 7 and a Droid X2 running CM10, so I'm familiar with Jellybean and like it very much!

So when I heard about the Nexus edition of the One, I was amazed. But then, I remembered since it's running stock Jellybean, it won't have the HTC only features like Zoe among others.

I'm open to the idea of changing the ROMs to get stock android if I bought the One with Sense on it...wait, is there a ROM that you can install to change to Sense 5 if I bought the Google edition!? That would be perfect if there was because I could try Sense if I wanted, but have Stock as my default and get all of Google's updates immediately!

I basically have to choose between:

HTC's Sense with all the Sense features and change the ROM to get to stock android. Slow to no OTA updates from Google.

Stock android with constant updates from Google as soon as they come out AND the stock experience. (Can still change the ROM)

I known this is a forum for the Sense HTC One, but what do you guys think? If you had this choice what would you do?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindfever91:
I just bought my HTC One a week ago, already having in mind that a Google Edition will be coming out, but as I don't live in the USA and given that it's going to be exclusive for the time being that wasn't such a big deal to me.

But I'm actually quite convinced that you are going to be able to switch from Sense to AOSP and vice versa, because they're the exact same hardware. Remember that tweak for the Optimus G that allowed you to basically turn it into a Nexus 4 from a software stand point? I'm sure there will be something similar to that and even if it's not supported officially, developers are going to find one way or another ;)

I could even imagine something like an RUU to turn a regular One into a Google Edition. Well the 26th isn't that far away now, we'll see...

Just get either one, it doesn't matter much, to be honest. The Google Edition one has an unlocked bootloader and is probably S-OFF, and you can do both on the Sense edition as well. You can install any ROM you want on either one with no problems, whether sense-based or AOSP.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GnexusPro:
If u want a super nexus than this isn't the phone for you. Its not a nexus and never will be. I would go with the sense to get the great features. If you want stock it's better to get a nexus. (Just my opinion)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Guest:
I presume you got the $5.65 ones. I've also just found out that the M2000 and presumably all Blue Angels have reversed polarity and a standard adapter won't work, but someone named Dade says:

"If you plug in the adapter to the M2000 and pull it out slightly (About 2mm) then you start getting sound from both channels. The problem is that the plug keeps going back in and the sound returns to mono.

The solution is simple. Get a BIC biro and take the small ink tube out of it. Cut a piece of the clear tube about 2mm long and slide this over the 2.5mm plug. This stops the pug going in too far. (See my photo)

Im sure that this wont cause a problem with the handset but as per usual do this at your own risk."

Re: EX 71

I've just done this as well. First remove the rubber ear piece.

You need to open up the ear piece by sliding a knife around the edge of the rubbery stuff nearest the ear. This is the same bit that forms the cable shroud. With mine, there was glue for about 1/3rd of the rim.

Then you need to prise the metal speaker out of the plastic. I did this with a knife. Snip off the wires for the Sony leads. Thread the wire from the headset through the cable shroud. With my MDA Vario headset this cable has a woven outer sleeve. I wrapped that in a little sellotape to stop it from unwinding as I pushed it through.

Once the wire is passed through, tie a knot in it to give some shock protection. Trim the ends of the wire and spread the two ends apart. With the Sony earpiece wires one was green and the other was bare copper. The headset wires were red/green and green so I joined the green to the green and the red/green to the bare copper terminal. A small soldering iron will help.
