[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfcsabre:
There's a workaround for this.

Create the contact of the person in 'Phone' and mark the contact of the phone as default (Open contact->menu->mark as default). The hassle though is you re-create it for every contact you have.

I only do this though for frequent callers, and for callers that I have a high resolution pic.

[Micromax A116] vermajai93:
Hi guys!

I am a total noob in androids and smartphones. I had bought Canvas HD a116 a couple of weeks ago and now I have decided to root it so I was following this method and got stuck where the sp flash tool was supposed to search for my device..then I followed the solution for the issue which was provided in the description of the same video. I tried holding my volume up key and connect my fone to pc and I saw windows searching for drivers but it failed and the error was that it could not find drivers for my device. I opened the device manager to see if its showing up there... it showed up for like a couple of seconds and vanished before I could click update drivers. So I tried it many time till I could click update drivers but it didn't and I got an error saying that it could not detect the device. I have gone through this whole forum searching for a similar problem but couldn't find one. So please help me I really wanna root my device asap. And if possible I would really appreciate if someone could inform the op (bhargav1991) of drivers solution link coz I am not able to post there and I think he might know how to solve this issue. Thanks much! :fingers-crossed:

PS I have tried installing drivers from official MMX website too but still my device is not showing up in my device manager.
[Micromax A116] bhargav1991:
Well the instructions are easy and simple and I have tried this many times.

It works like a charm.

May be you could try with different ports.

Think positively u will be successful.
[Micromax A116] vermajai93:
Which driver do you recommend should I install before going through this process? Coz I have tried all my ports before posting this problem here... also the drivers you attached in that post I could not install it so I used official drivers from MMX site how to install those drivers? I get an error saying could not install the file type

:eek:

This is what I got when I tried doing it again please help asap I'm in a desperate need of help :crying:
[Micromax A116] bhargav1991:
Start from fresh .

Uninstall all the drivers which u installed previously.

Than do the procedure again.

Select the driver accordingly .

Win 7, vista,xp also check whether u have 32 or 64 bit.
[Micromax A116] vermajai93:
My PC config

I have a windows 7 64bit PC. I have already tried a fresh start before and now I have drivers from official MMX website (they only provide drivers for 32 bit systems) installed on my PC.

Please guide me what should I do next, I am facing the same problem again.

I'm finding tons online - most of them look very cheaply made. I've read many reviews complaining about them not being compatible with various Android devices. Can someone recommend one they actually have and are satisfied with? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Accessories] Spidey01:
I'm using the 11-pin Samsung MHL cable (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0080CXSOU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and AllShare Cast dongle with Amazon Basics HDMI cable and it works perfectly fine with our LG and Samsung TV's on both my Note 8 and S3. I've also got a fine MediaBridge that works.

Where the problem most often occurs is HDCP issues. Adapters from HDMI to D-SUB (sometimes called VGA) or DVI ports can often not work at all or render only at VGA resolution (640x480px). AllShare Cast seems less picky than the MHL, at least that was my experience with my S3 and the S2 MHL cable+11-pin adaptor under stock ICS/JB firmware. I have HDMI/DVI adapters that work and don't work, and a HDMI/D-SUB that gives me 720p instead of VGA with the AllShare Cast dongle.

When it comes to custom ROM or silly stuff like Miracast, obviously YMMV.

Any main skins site has black for our phones not hard to find.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mikemq2003:
Painting it would be a horrible idea. You can purchase the back cover in many different colors. I would start with that. Then see if they offer the housing in black. The outside edge would still be the chrome look. Do some research on that. Last they sell the glass with black outerlay if you want to call it that. Other than that, I wouldnt know.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xartic12:
You could buy a new housing, sand it and prime it, paint with krylon fusion and let it cure for 7 days. It's worth the try for the housing but for the screen you would have to buy a new one.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] TomLin:
Hello all,

Has anybody else out there experienced the Notifications Bug - I have seen some mention of it in older posts, is it just my setup ??

I use a PDA2K EVDO,

McAfee Virusscan for PDA

Device has password lock and prompts every time it is woken up

I don't use Bluetooth, and there have been no ROM updates released for my device.

The device is permanently connected to corporate network via EVDO and syncs my mail every 20 mins.

My PDA2K EVDO has been giving me a lot of problems since I bought it in Novemeber. I last performed a hard reset in early January. It worked fine for a while but I've had a variety of problems with it recently and was almost ready to dump it/rebuild it again.

In the past few weeks I've probably soft reset at least once per day

Yesterday I downloaded the Notifications check app from scarybearsoftware.com (gotta love that name) and discovered that I had 3800 notifications.

They are not the sstimechange, connmgr or IA_caller_Id message that the software specifically mentions.

The notifications mostly seemed to be in server.exe.

The events are either Apprunaftersync or Apprunafterwakeup.

I deleted 2787 duplicate events (leaving 17) and hey presto - it seemed to be fine again.

After about 20 hours - I'm already up to 80 notifications.

Does anybody understand what the notifcations are all about ??

Thanks

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] BeyondtheTech:
Shot in the dark, but do you think it's related to your antivirus software on your PDA, like it's scanning the moment it powers on or checks the PDA after an ActiveSync? Just a guess, since I don't have any AV software yet on my PDA2K.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Cataligh:
My second S4 in a row has 1 or 2 very faint lines that span vertically across the screen. They are more noticeable when auto-brightness is enabled but the more I pay attention to them the more environments I can see them in. I took a few pictures of it but the lines are hard to make out in the photos.

The easiest way to see it is on the stock messenger app with auto-brightness enabled in a dark environment. If you delete all your text threads you are left with just a dim white background and in my case, can see a few straight faint white/grey lines spanning the screen vertically. With full brightness it is near impossible to see but with a trained eye I can still make them out.

I've looked all over the web and the only community who seems to relate to this is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus community. There are quite a few threads about it saying it's inherent to OLED technology but I have not seen any threads involving the Galaxy S4. I have had three phones side by side and was able to see these lines on two of them. I would be interested to see if anybody can replicate this or has noticed this. Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RSC10:
I can see the very same thing on my AT&T Galaxy S4. I actually returned my first unit for this reason and the replacement was the same. I can really only notice the line on a light gray back ground and wallpaper like the stock blue Galaxy wallpaper (the one without balloons or airplane wings).

I recall my Galaxy Nexus actually being quite a bit worse. It's annoying but I'm learning to live with it. I do think that this is just one of the downsides of amoled screens. Some are worse than others.

At the end of the day I honestly don't notice it unless I'm trying to see it...so I've stopped looking for it!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Cataligh:
Exactly, I don't notice it when I'm actually using my phone to do something important. But if I'm just goofing around I immediately go to it like "damn, why are you on my screen!!!" And yes I can easily see it on the stock blue wallpaper as well. I really only notice one line but sometimes if I'm looking hard enough I think I can see other faint ones, might just be my eyes playing tricks with me though.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] R2D2_SW:
If you go under Settings-> Call ->Accounts and try to add a SIP account for internet calling, the setting "Authentication username" is MIA.

I believe this setting is required in order to get the SIP account setup properly (or at least in my experience). Without it, I keep getting the "Authentication failed" error. This very setting is available on my Nexus 4. However, my N4 is running 4.2.2. So I'm not sure whether the root of the issue is Android 4.1.2 or is this an HTC Sense issue.

I called HTC this morning and they were not very helpful in the sense that the rep did not know much about this whole internet calling thing. He looked at multiple other HTC devices and none had the setting so he thinks that it is either not required, or the carrier decided to have it removed. He could not look at the developer edition because he did not have one handy. But my guess is that the issue is present on all the Sense versions of android 4.1.2, or Android 4.1.2 for that matter.

Can anyone with knowledge on this setting tell me whether they've been able to setup a SIP account without any issue (and w/o this setting) using the android native SIP account settings? If so how did you workaround the missing setting?

Also, is there anyone with an HTC developer edition that can have a look and see if the "Authentication username" setting is present?

See the screenshots of the SIP account details screen I'm talking about. You will notice that the setting I'm inquiring about is not present.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mayorblurps:
Well guys, I am a long time reader of the forum and have flashed just about every popular ROM I can find, but never posted before. Honestly I have been a little scared of posting questions because of how ruthless the 'veterans' can be on the noobs, but here I am. Anyway, so far I have stuck with JellyBeans 17 and LOVE it. I haven't had any issues at all till now. Since a few days ago, I keep getting a notification that there is an OTA update available, for Beans I am assuming. When I try to download/update, it does not happen even though my phone auto-reboots into recovery, flashes something, then auto-reboots the system.

Right now my OTA Updater is telling me there is an update available, and when I click to download this is what happens:

-Prompt to wipe cache, which I do, then click download

-Download meter appears (0/100) but never fills, then

-Reboots into TWRP (v2.5.0.0)

-Flashes something (update?)

-Reboots system

-Continues to prompt me that there is an update available in notification bar

Running JB17 and TWRP 2.5.0.0

Checking for updates in ROM Toolbox and GooMgr says NO updates available for me. Plus, the only compatible ROMs browsing 'finds' for me are CM, carbon, and liquidsmooth.

Questions:

Should I update TWRP to the latest (2.5.0.3)?

What is the deal with the OTA updater not functioning correctly? Should I not use this?

Thank you guys, and please take it easy on this gal ;). I learned my way around XDA and rooting by reading a ton of stuff and through trial and error. I may be a new poster, but I'm not so new to rooting and flashing ROMs. I am still learning all I can, and open to any and all suggestions. Totally addicted to customizing my Note2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
Since you are on beans, yes the OTA is for beans rom. It is nice that he included this for updating his rom, unfortunately there have been issues with it for the past few builds. If you want to update to the newest build, go to his rom thread and download b18. Then boot into recovery and flash b18. You don't need to update twrp to the newest version. Twrp 2.5.0.0 works just fine for it. For future reference, this should have been posted in beans rom thread

First off, make sure you have HTC Sync Manager installed because that will give you the proper drivers in order to be able to use ADB commands.

Afterwards, make sure you install Java JDK and Android SDK.

Just follow this tutorial here: http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/

Follow it word for word and make sure you install JDK X86 even if you have a X64 computer. And then download SDK Manager, put it in C:/ drive, open SDK Manager, and download the necessary tools (also all in the tutorial).

I was in the same position as you just before yesterday and I followed this tutorial with success.
