I've just found out that plan b app can be remotely installed aswell, my younger brother had his phone stolen today and just used my computer to install it amd track it to an address nearby so may be worth giving it a try

like i said, nobody in my country knows about these websites .

but it sucks that the phone get stolen ,right?

he connected again but no recognition. find my mobile is very slow and i cant track him. he connects 2 a day, at night for only 5 minutes and i cant trace him, he drives me crazy ...

my lousy police cant do anything about it but i would not let him to get away with this...

the avast one will reintall itself even if you reset the phone because it integrates itself to the system... and it will send the new sim number to a number you have setup. you can even control the phone to call without the thief knowing... but it has to be set up properly first...

I bought my sweet XTZ recently, and for first time it ws charging like 7 hours. And battery was going down really fast. But after 2-3 days it started to charge in 2-3 hours(from 0% to 100%) and battery was going down 4-6 hours. So don't worry cause the first charging times are kinda long, and battery is draining really quick.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] capn783:
Hello everyone. I currently own the Verizon Galaxy S4 (Model SCH-I545). I rooted it and currently have CM 10.1 installed. My exact CM version is 10.1-20130623-NIGHTLY-jfltevzw. What I want to be able to do is make my external 64gb Class 10 SD Card my primary storage location. I only have like 4.1 gb left on internal storage on this phone and I would like to utilize my 64gb sd card I bought for this. I looked at all the similar threads recommended before this post and they are for different phones/builds. I searched in the s4 general/q+a/cm 10.1 thread for verizon s4 and found nothing really specific. The closest thing I could find was this post, the post before it, and the post that follows it. People have mentioned on these forums and in that previous post I linked that there are hacks to do this. I would like to know from other S4 CM 10.1 users what they have found/are using to to do what I am trying to do. I appreciate your time and help. Thank you.

You might only use foldermount to link only /emulated/0/android/obb . I think if you move everything by using link2sd, it might slow down a little bit. I am not sure whether it is a good idea or not. Somebody who has more knowledge might answer it here. :):):)

Hey guys

Been using DMC3 stock deodexed without any problems for some time and all of a sudden started having problems with the Wifi. Initially it just disconnected even tho the Wifi signal was strong (S3 and iPad connect just fine).

Now both Wifi and bluetooth don't even turn on at all. I tried installing different roms (jedi x, jedi master, tweaked, stock roms, modems, etc.) but both Wifi and bluetooth just don't turn on at all at this point. Does anyone know any ideas or similar problems?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] schoi623:
Anyone? The Wifi is just not turning on at all...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gaticaag:
I had this problem. It would work for about a day, but when I left a wifi area (my apartment) it would stop working afterwards. I tried everything as well. Unrooted to stock, rooted to Jedi Master/Jedi-X, different kernels, different modems, still nothing.

I had to do a warranty exchange through Samsung. T-Mobile wouldn't let me do a warranty exchange through them.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bouncyball:
Hi all,

New to the Xperia Scene. I've rooted and unlocked HTC's in the past with sucess but I've come into contact with a XPERIA Z locked to the "3" network.

How would I unlock it & remove the "3" crap off it and flash a STOCK rom - Not really interested in a custom rom.

Thanks for any help given :)

EDIT - Just checked the Rooting Status info and it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed : NO - Am I out of luck?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shem2409:
You will need to get a SIM unlock code either directly from 3 UK or search for a service online (Usually they are about 15-20£) if you want to get rid of SIM unlock. Then you can,but don't have to unlock the BOOTLOADER (if you wanna flash custom ROMs not based on stock such as CM, AOKP etc you will need to unlock it but bare in mind that Bravia Engine 2 will be permanently lost unless you backup the phone). If you want stock based ROMs just root the phone using one of the methods found in xda. You can also checkout my youtube channel for a video guide on how to root and get custom recovery. Good luck
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LenAsh:
Yes - all UK carrier Xperias have non-unlockbale bootloaders. You are out of luck.

If you have any desire to go Custom on any phone brand, always stick to factory sim free unbranded. Period.

You've also posted this in the wrong section.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bouncyball:
Thanks for the heads up.

I would just want to put my UK Orange SIM in and remove the 3 branded logo's etc. If I can't do this, I'll eBay the phone.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikc0069:
You can - get your sim unlock code, dial *#*#7465625#*#* in the dialer, input code then press unlock (this saves the trouble of finding another simcard. You of course need to use another sim card to test it - but hey, you wouldn't be unlocking otherwise ;) )

You will then need to root and install a recovery - tons of threads about on that one. Then just flash any generic firmware (I'm using [NUT]'s Belgian Generic one) - ti won't have any carrier crap on it at all.

Alternatively, once rooted just use titanium backup to uninstall any stuff you don't like.

I've got a Three XZ as well and the bootloaders are NOT unlockable - there may be some joy with a KEXEC module if any of the devs get one to work, but until then you will be stuck with stock variants. I'm on the verge of ebaying myself for this reason.

I rooted my phone for the first time the other day and have had a TON of problems getting my apps and data back. I installed cyanogenmod clockwork and it worked fine up until i had to get my apps back. Once i got everything back, my messaging apps keep quitting like the second i open it up. I also keep getting errors like exchange services quit and stuff like that. A lot of people said to install go sms pro. I installed it and it didn't quit, but i sent a message to my friend and it didn't work. I clicked send and i went back to the messages screen and it wasn't there. So I'm not really sure what to do. I have android 4.2.2 with 3.4.45 cyanogenmod kernel if that helps. I'm new to this so I'm not sure what info you need. Thanks

This is RUU mode. If you plug into your PC

fastboot reboot

will reboot your phone. However you will then need to go to recovery and flash a rom probably. If the above command doesn't work, you need to find a stock RUU for your device and flash it.

[Java for Android App Development] hudsonhicks:
Ok I'm looking into getting into writing apps for android.

The last time i programmed was about 8 years ago. I used to write C++ apps in Visual studio but my main focus was on writing mods and addons for Unreal Engine based games (Unreal Tournament). The great thing about VS is the ability to edit some code and press a button to compile and test instantly.

I don't think it'd be too difficult to get back into the swing of things, but i need a decent setup on my PC which allows for quick and easy compilation and testing.

I'm going to be making LOADS of mistakes when i first start out so i want to setup a good environment in which i can edit some code.. click a button and it's all ready to rock and roll with regards to the Android Emulator..

Quick and easy testing - You get the idea?

Also i have Windows & Linux Mint

I am partial to Eclipse. I had to use a tutorial on how to set it up the first time but it works great. Once it is up and running, it is a one button click to start testing with the emulator.
[Java for Android App Development] hudsonhicks:
Do you mean this? http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/

[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
Yeah, that is where you get Eclipse.

Follow this tutorial for Eclipse: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html

Recently, Google released their own IDE called "Android Studio". It is based on IntelliJ. Therefore it has better code completion function but it takes some time to get used to the shortcuts you need. Eclipse is much easier at the beginning because you can find everything in the GUI. Android Studio also contains more bugs.

For these reasons I recommend you to start with Eclipse. Check the link I gave you.

[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
I am a fan of Android Studio and IntelliJ, too. However, due to the amount of tutorials for Eclipse, it might be better for beginners to start with that IDE.
[Java for Android App Development] out of ideas:
+1

while the other IDEs are at least as capable, the internet is loaded with so many tutorials written about Eclipse, it makes it the best bet for starting out.

I came from pretty much nothing with Java, and have managed to piece my way through a couple OK apps, mostly because documentation with Eclipse is so easy to find. Even many of the google tutorials use it.

I must say though, I'm almost ready to switch to Android Studio. Staring at the white background of Eclipse for 6+ hours really burns out the ole eyes.

I have to admit that I could not work with the black background. For that reason I use the white IntelliJ theme. :laugh:

I've researched a bit but....

So I read up on this because this sounded like something i would really like to achieve as the international has already recieved 4.2.2.

Ive researched a bit and I was just curious if what I've read is actually true. My theory is that since both devices , international and at&t , both have roms for the 4.1.2 firmware then i may flash my phone to run the actual international versions firmware 4.1.2 thus then letting me upgrade to 4.2.2. This is actually be possible on my at&t HTC one 32 GB ? I believe this is true but are there actual proof of xda devs running this?

Have been in contact with T-Mobile and they have very limited details on this device! Suggested I contact Scancom (retailer that supplied the phone) if I am not happy with the device.

Seeing as this phone is the future and the functionality it is such a shame that the quality is marred by a very very poor camera. Have tried all the settings and updates and the picture is still very pixelated.

If anyone has any idea how to overcome this problem (ie the camera software) or feel that T-Mobile will resolve this in the very near future please let me know!

Thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] arfster:
Do a search on this forum and get the latest camera updates - anyone remember which thread had them all in one post?

Secondly, you have to recognise the limitations of the camera. Even after the patching it's useless in low light, but OK in daylight.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] macrinus:
Try changing camera sharpness default value to 1 and see if it does the trick for you.

The camera quality is nevertheless not brilliant, I must admit, especially when using Night mode. Though, changing the sharpness value did remove all the white spots I had before.

Hey all, anyone getting horribly slow/high-latency data connections on T-Mobile HSPA+? I'm running the latest Android Revolution ROM and generally use my phone as a tether for my internet connection.

A few weeks ago I started noticing my connection and latency speeds becoming terrible. YouTube videos now buffer every 2 seconds or reset the video entirely, downloads take forever, hardly able to even stream music anymore without a dedicated connection.

I'm noticing the speeds both directly on the phone or when tethered to my computer. The funny thing is P2P connections still fly (1.1mbps in some cases) and speed test comes up with OK but inconsistent speeds.

Anyone else having speed issues on HSPA+ and if so were you able to work around it?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FligMupple:
Earlier this year I was using CM 10.1 and everything was great.

Then, one day, the latest nightly introduced the following issue: During audio playback, the volume will suddenly drop to a very low level, then after a second or two, return to the proper level. This will happen approximately 5-10 times per minute of playback.

At the time, I saw no way to fix it, so I switched to a Sense-based rom.

Months passed, and I returned to CM 10.1 a week ago and learned that the problem still exists, months later. Yesterday I tried the Carbon rom and it also has the issue, so I assume it's with all AOSP based roms. I've been searching the threads and have not found much on this bug. Almost all posts with "audio" or "volume" and "bug" are about issue with bluetooth audio, or losing audio after a call.

But I do see the rare post from someone else with the same complaint, so I know it's not something affecting just me.

I'm wondering if anyone can help me fix this issue. I very much prefer the AOSP-based roms over sense, but because of this one tiny thing, they are basically unusable for me.

Any help would be appreciated.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjoostema:
possible solution

This is not guaranteed to work, but I've gotten it to on slim bean rom and one other 4.2 based rom. Mind you, this was on a different device, but the coding is very likely the same. I used solid explorer from the market to edit the xml once the rom was installed. just grant su access. go to system>etc>media_profile.xml and every place that you see <audio codec, change it from "aac" to "amrwb" there are a lot of them, just double check and make sure you got them all and input correctly. I hope it works man, I can't get it to on Carbon but it works on slim-based roms. I must remind you, this has worked on my device for the specified roms and I am not responsible for anything that happens to yours. If it fails, simply edit the xml back to "amrwb" instead of "aac" and you'll be back where you started, no harm done. Don't forget to save your changes in solid explorer. Good luck. :D
