[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kk122:
i forgot my screen unlock password, after trying for almost 100 times, i tried hard reset option by press n holding volume up button,home key and power key, then selecting wipe data/factory reset option. after selecting this option the phone still asks for a password. please help!!

how can i unlock my phone? or how can i reset my phone without password?? please help
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compacity:
2e or 3e recovery? naturally resetting should do it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stepie22:
as far as i know, a factory reset only deletes stuff on /data/data. The lockscreen stuff is in /data/system. If it isn't yet asking for a google account password (which I think it is, considering you tried 100s of times) you could just delete the appropriate file. eg. if it was a pattern, you would delete gesture.key. It would them accept any code.

Hope this helps....

Recovery > Delete All User Data or Full Reset Phone :D

Failing that try these solutions as it worked for some users :

Take out the battery, the sim card, and the SD card and leave the phone for 2~3 hours like that

Then put battery back in and re-enter everything and should boot

or

Keep trying your code till your completely locked out and no attempts

If you fail too many times to unlock the phone with your pattern, it tells you to try again in *** seconds.

It will show a button on the bottom that says "forgot pattern?" Click it!

Make sure you know your Google ID and Password...

Log in to your google account on your computer, the same account you registered for your phone

After logging in look at the top right corner of your inbox/email page, it would say your google username.

Now this google ID on the top right corner of the page would be displayed as blahblah@googlemail.com or something

Type in the google ID, thats visible on the right hand top corner of your page into your galaxy s handset locked page, and type in the password.

If this works let me know as a few people suggest its working :eek:

When it comes to tech I'm very cautious.but because of my buddies, I had to submerge my XZ in a bucket for nearly an hour(about 1.5 feet) and when I took it out,I was barely able to hear the speakers and I felt water had entered inside.I switched the phone off and switched it on after 5 or 6 hours,and it was fine.so I guess water does not enter unless it's pressure exceeds the limit.the best thing to do when u think water has entered ur phone is to switch it off and wait for all the water to dry out or better not put it into the water in the first place :p

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the4ndy:
Ok so I am having this problem with my Nexus 4 and the way it is being mounted (if thats the right word) to Windows 8.

I have used the WUGS root toolkit to root and unlock and whatever my phone so I have done the driver thing that comes with that (sorry im a noob) but even before that I was never able to get my N4 to mount "with a drive letter" (if you will).

Here is a screen shot to help explain,

If you will notice I have Windows (C:) and SSD (D:) and if i were to plug in a USB flash drive it would be assigned a letter and it would show up. For whatever reason it would seem my N4 is being treated as a camera or some other type of device because It is not being given a drive letter. Instead the weird external HD icon is there and then the harddisk icon labeled Internal Storage.

Some things i have tried, or know i have set: Media Device (MTP) is the selected mode on my phone, i have tried it the other way to no success. my phone does have android debugging enabled, I have tried resetting the windows autoplay settings and selecting a different option (before it auto opened explorer to the internal storage folder).

I am currently running Paranoid Android 3.60 however I had the same problem since the day i got my Nexus 4 with stock everything on it. I believe its an issue with the way my windows 8 computer treats it.

If anyone can help me that would be greatly appreciated. thank you!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maeur1:
I think this has to do with it not having mass storage mode. So that means that a computer will only detect it as a media device, not a USB storage device, and so it isnt mounted, it is accessed. If it was mounted, it would have to be unmounted from the device from which it is connected to, and if it was disconnected, you wouldnt be able to access the files on the phone itself.

Well thats why i think it doesnt mount with a letter.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the4ndy:
This makes some sense to me, but can you elaborate on how i might get my computer to mount my android device? is there a reason it was set up like this? Is it my phone or my computer that is the cause? Anything else you can tell me would be great. Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maeur1:
Nothing is the cause, its just how it interacts with a computer, so neither the computer or phone are at fault, its just how the tech is made. I tried googling for you on how to get a MTP device to get a drive letter, but its getting late for me, and im coming up with zilch. I hope someone else can help you out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the4ndy:
hmmmmm, that seems like a flaw in the tech. why did they develop MTP mode / why do we even use it if it lacks the ability to mount it to a drive letter? im assuming there are benefits I am not aware of. Thanks for your help. Ive been doing googling as well but havent come up with anything. I have a little more knowledge on the issue thanks to you and so I will try my searches again. THanks.

but i've also hear that there are different batch

or is fhd only the 4GB version and all the other are B batch?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igoritza:
They change some specs on same model, for instance RAM memory but these are most important differences:

ZOPO C2 - MTK6589, thinner glass, ghost touch problem

ZOPO C2 Platinum - MTK6589Turbo, thicker glass, mostly no ghost touch, 16/32GB ROM

ZOPO C3 - Different design but pretty much same specs as C2 Platinum.

If you wanna know if yours is regular or Platinum C2, Internal storage is the clue. 16 and more GB memory is Platinum.

EDIT:

C2 platinum and C3 wont root with SP tool, at least not for me. this is what worked for me (chinese app one click root) -

Vroot: http://www.mgyun.com/UpdateLog/vroot

MTK drivers also required before root.

Marsapa rom works on all 3 devices so all roms should work, at least that is my clue
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] les_garten:
Hello,

I am thinking about getting a C3.

Do you have experience with it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igoritza:
Should be the same as My C2 Platinum, just differently positioned cam.

My experience:

This phone is the beast! My C2 is slightly overclocked and it shows Antutu 17.000 which is higher than Galaxy S3 and on top of that Antutu is resolution dependent

5 inch full HD screen (overkill as human eye cant detect higher than 280PPI) but still MTK CPU drains a lot less than Quallcom phones so my phone holds whole day even longer when I don overuse it.

Design is by far the best. compensated with the fact that phone IS breakable due to lack of glass holder (glass is spot-mounted onto the case) you should consider using some protection. I do not as I take care of my phones. Note that that solution provides by far the best design as phone really looks like this when turned off:

On top of that, there are several tools you would need to make your phone ultimate:

Nova Launcher: emulates CM's Trebuchet, and is even better. consider paying for full version as it is really the best launcher (uninstall from home, and lots of functions others dont have)

Xposed netvork: XDA's own genious rovo89 made this so it enables customizing your device ANY WAY YOU WANT via modules

Gravitybox module for Xposed: advanced restart, hardware buttons assign, CM lookalike tweaks, MTK fixes ...

with these 3 tools, your phone wouldnt even need custom rom, everything is there, with Xposed you inject whatever code you need into the system. there are tons of separate Xposed functions aside from GravityBox.

With all this used, phone is ulitmate device which saves battery, acts as "top of the high end phone" and it is close to AOSP so I wouldnt really consider replacing it for One, or S4 or any other device as it can do anything now, really.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] les_garten:
I'm mainly looking at the availability of compatable ROMs.

I don't get why there is a 980 and a C2 series.

Can someone explain that? They seem absolutely identical
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igoritza:
ZOPO C2 is EXACTLY the same as ZP980 and dont doubt about it. The difference is that C2 initially comes with Aliyun OS developed by Alibaba group (the site that sells stuff) and ZOPO shares profit with them when selling C2 so C2 comes cheaper due to price cut from Alibaba. Shame for them that everyone installs android but good for us that is slightly cheaper.

versions, officially:

REGULARC2: ZOPO C2 first batch (black white) - 1080p, 5mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 4GB ROM, MTK6589

PLATINUM: ZOPO C2 Platinum + C2 Black (same as White called Platinum) - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

REGULAR980: ZP980 - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 (no Turbo)

TURBO980: ZP980 Turbo - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

MORE RAMROM: ZP980 32 - 1080p, 8mpx front cam, 2GB RAM, 32GB ROM, MTK6589 Turbo

see what I did there, I gave them names :)

REGULARC2 and REGULAR980 are same SoC with more ROM on the 980 model

PLATINUM and TURBO980 are the same phones

MORE RAMROM packs 2GB so is the best right now from all zopo models. and they are pretty much same devices. I would use Turbo versions as my root procedure didnt work with regular C2/ZP980 instructions, and MTK6589 Turbo vorks better overall
