Did you do a clean flash? That being: Factory reset, clear cache/dalvik and wipe system before flashing Task's AOKP + Gapps?

I'd suggest backing up your stuff, doing the above and my guess is that all will be well afterwards.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] benveben:
I just factory reset it, than clear cache/dalvik, and wipe everything..

now i restart it to see, I choosed English (Canada) next step "Looking for a network" asking me Select Wi-Fi and it is saying "Turning Wi-Fi on..."

However, nothing comes, i can wait for one hr and i know it will not come, probably my "wpa_supplicant" under /system/bin is not right :S

i really dont know

Yes I have other devices to connected to router, and they all work fine.

Wipe your google account's data and it should be fine after.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] benveben:
first, i thought maybe clock and date issue; but it wasnt.

second, i clear all caches and force stop, clear data,

thn i clear my google account.

when i m connecting to wifi, google play is not working..

when i turn of wi-fi and with my data plan, google play is working..

and what do you mean by "wipe google account" cause i think i did and it is not working with wifi :S

this is so annoying :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
If you haven't bought your One yet (like me) you might wanna read this.

I just realized that if I buy an HTC One at RadioShack (Sprint, AT&T has this too) you get $100 in Google Play credit. Plus, if you register your device before July 15th, you get $25 in credit from HTC..

Holy cow, that is $125 in Play credit. :highfive: :D :good:

So, what the heck am I gonna do with all that? I'm not complaining but only trying to encourage discussion. I guess the main point of this thread is, what would/will YOU do with that?

EDIT: Perhaps I'll buy this!!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Riff76:

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] hirent:
Can you buy devices or is it restricted to software only?

$125 would reduce the price of the next Nexus 7 by more than half.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
Man, that would be a damn good deal.

But no. Software only.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] hirent:
Figures.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
Yeah.... I won't be running out of Google Play money for a while though. You could say buy a movie or TV show, but I have Netflix. Another crappy thing is that you can't use Play credit to subscribe to Play Music All Access, which is dumb if you ask me. I can use Spotify on my computer anyway..
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rydah:
You said Sprint and ATT have this?? $100 Google play deal.???

Sent Via My HTC One, On The Now Network By Sprint!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] thatotherguy..:
Pics or it didn't happen :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
Actually, it is from RadioShack. Check the links below.

I think you meant links or it didn't happen? ;)

So, once again, here's the scenario:

Somebody goes to RadioShack, and buys an HTC One--AT&T or Sprint, there's no difference for this--and then they receive $100 Play credit from RadioShack. SPRINT LINK AT&T LINK

Unfortunately, the AT&T has to be done in store due to RadioShack's agreements with AT&T. The Sprint can be bought online I believe.

After that, the person goes home, and goes to this HTC site to register their device and receive $25 in Google Play credit.

They now have $125 in Google Play credit at their disposal. They might have to use it before the end of the year or something (at least for the HTC given credit if you look at their ToS for the deal), but hey that's still a pretty good deal if you ask me. Especially if it's on a new contract, you will receive more Play Credit than you paid for the device itself (of course, there's a million other fees though.)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Carbajal3009:
Stepped up and got this deal yesterday. :D took me a little while to figure out how to root it, but its up and running now! Just backing up stuff on my note 2 right now :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] The Peanut Master:
Do you know if this is true for the $100 that RadioShack gives you? I looked at the fine print and didn't see any deadline for that credit to expire, but maybe I missed something.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
I think only the HTC credit expires, if you read the fine print on their page. RadioShack does not, unless we're both mistaken. So, spend your $25 from HTC first, and then add your RadioShack and you shouldn't have to worry about expiration.

Wish I saw that 100 $ play store credit deal sooner... Just ordered my sisters HTC one last Wednesday... At least I got the activation fee waived through a promo :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EduMonzter:
Two moth ago I had to drive with my bike one hour under the rain, my jacked was little opened and some water get inside. When I arrived home I saw it switched it off and put it inside rice two days. After that my s3 starts making blinking flash, if I make a picture and go to gallery it flash and when I exit from camera app it blinks again.

Sometimes it starts blinking and don't stop if I don't exit camera app from multitasking.

Sometimes the phone start going crazy flashing all the time and just stops if I take out battery, switched off don't stops the blink.

I would like to know if some body knows how to fix it, I know that I have to open it so a guide would be great.

all ideas are welcome, thanks.

Hi there,

just ordered my Asus Memo Pad HD7 and I didnt find a single Thread about it, am I just blind or are there none?

I am looking for Custom Roms etc, guess it's just a little early for that, but maybe just rooting works?

Is there a Thread or sub forum for the Memo Pad HD7 ?
[General Questions and Answers] HoR77:

[General Questions and Answers] Dennis0201:

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] HoR77:
I am from Germany, so i wanted to check Amazon.de when it will be available and they had 2 left in Stock, so i quickly put down the order and already have it now :)
[General Questions and Answers] sami8519:
So how does it work for you? Do you recommend it? I love the price. I am considering buying 3-4 for the family.

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] HoR77:
well its really feels kinda cheap and microsd card is killing me (there is just an open slot) and its gets an error every ~30min, microsd worked fine in galaxy s3 before...

but well, thats the downside, the rest is kinda nice and the price is killing, so yeah ! :)
[General Questions and Answers] SoWhy:
Also got it from Amazon.de, I guess they received an early batch and started shipping immediately. I'm quite happy with it, it's feels okay (plastic but nice), is fast and runs smoothly. Modifications by Asus are few and usually well made - except for a permanent button in the left hand corner that lets you used floating apps because you can't remove it even if you don't like using such apps

As for the sd card, I had the same problem two days ago but it stopped. Probably it just was inserted slightly askew. The missing cover for it is a bit of a design flaw but a short piece of transparent duct tape can fix that (It's a 149 € device after all)

Since Amazon started shipping them early, I had hoped someone had found a way to root them already, which is the only thing that bugs me at the moment. Hopefully someone will hack it soon. I expect there will be quite a demand for those devices since the Nexus 7.2 is still not out and this is basically a Nexus 7 with better hardware and SD card support anyway

[General Questions and Answers] Petschino:
Worth the price

Hi guys,

I already got it and tested it now quite a while. Yeah it feels a bit cheap but it certainly is! I will use it for surfing on the couch and reading book, comics etc. so it doesn't really bother. And that's what Asus wanted with this little thingy.

The screen looks pretty much like SGS2 quality screen, of course a bit bigger.

The Asus android is.. well.. ok i guess ^^. It will give you constantly show you a symbol in the upper bar when you install a SDcard and the wifi direct did only work a single time..

I will use other roms if they're available i think. I already read about some devices with GPS failure or SDcard slot failure, so i think the price does come with low quality. But you can change it as long as you get a working one^^.

The case is completely ok. Many described it as slippy because it's plastic. Hmja it is, but if you don't have too sweaty hands it's not worse than a iPhone 3G or so.

Mine has a bit of an sharp edge around the upper side. well..

So for 150 € its really okay. But with new roms it would be even better, i am sure.

Hey guys. I just got the tablet and it is great. :) I have a question about screen-protectors.

They are very few and very expensive screen protectors that are specified for Memo pad HD 7. My question is: are there other(cheaper) screen protectors that will fit the screen area of the tablet? It will be a temporally solution until cheap china-made screen-protectors hit the market. :)
[General Questions and Answers] SoWhy:
They are mostly expensive because they are also non-reflective. You could try buying one made for the predecessor (like this one) and cut away parts that don't fit.
[General Questions and Answers] da_nikon:

btw do you use any type of case on your tablet? And what are your thoughts on available cases for the Memo pad HD 7?

Asus MemoPad HD 7 last Update (Oct.2013)

I've got the same problem as studon. After installing the proposed upgrade today, my tablet keeps popping "MiniAppDocking has stopped". There's no way to repair it. I tried a factory reset (the hard way, clicking buttons between two popups). It still hangs. I accessed the recovery boot (hold volume up while pressing the on/off button then use volume down to select and volume up to confirm). I made a total wipe. The machine is definitly dead. No way to restore build.prop either (not seen on the sd card in recovery mode). The Memopad was rooted with Framaroot and worked fine. I brought it back to my reseller hoping Asus will repair it for free. Never seen such a mess. On my other phones/tablets, upgrade was either not possible or possible but loosing root only.

I'm trying to update from 4.2.1 for 3 days. No luck. Earlier I have integrated some system app updates into my rom with titanium backup, and I have deleted a few system apps (Zinio for instance). After replaced,and filled it with factory state system apps, but I screwed, because I am WW user, and those were RUS apps. Today a kind buddy (Hikari no Tenshi) shared a proper WW build /system/app and framework backup, and I replaced the messed apps (checked the dates in the rootexplorer) Now, during the update, I am getting the following: apply_patch_check"/system/lib/libAppDataSearch.so"
