[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repairsuniverse:
Thanks for sharing. That method is just too sketchy because you can easily damage the LCD that way.

But that's not to say it can not be done of course. I've seen done on some Samsung models too. I just wouldn't suggest this method to my customers as most of them have never fixed a phone before, let alone perform a repair like that.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmoresbest55:
I agree that this method is somewhat sketchy. I feel confident in doing it. However, if there is a better way I would like to know it. I would really rather not pay $200+ to buy another glass, LCD, digitizer because everything works great except the glass is broken.

Basically, is there a simple way to replace the glass without trashing the LCD and digitizer?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repairsuniverse:
There really is no simple way. You would still have to separate the glass digitizer from the LCD and clean up all of the left over adhesive on the LCD with out damaging it.

I have been looking all over forums to find a ROM dedicated to getting the maximum power and FPS out of our device but no luck. I have seen dedicated ROMs for other similar phones but none for ours. If there is one please let me know or if there is any developer who'd be happy porting one to our device, I'd be happy to test!

So the .145 update is coming via update center in my device. I just want to know, will i lose my rooted access of i update my phone? And what about the other mod ive done like camera button mod, docomo status bar etc? Please gv some feedback before i update it.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ci6i:
I just updated my V to .145 via PC Companion and root is gone :(

I was on .140 before, and no updates were available ota.

I'm looking for a new root method now.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] BarneyJ:
I don't know about the latest update but I've previously done OTA updates before and kept root (I've got a Xperia T not V).

This thread was helpful at the time - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2021150

I also had no OTA available so used PC Companion to go from 9.1.A.1.140 to .141 on my Xperia T. I don't know the differences between XT .141 and XV .145 but was able to regain root using Bin4ry's Root Many Android method

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460, it might work for you.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] yuskhayru:
since u has already update to .145, try this bin4ry method : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 and i think it might work. i dont have time to test it yet.. im outstation doing my work:angel:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
if you perform OTA update (via PHONE), you won't loose anything, actually USUALLY you don't loose anything, and of course, using root keeper...

that's totally obvious when you use PC Companion, you will loose root..

And for regaining root access, use DoomLord EasyRootKit, which is now available in Android Development Section, it actually covers ALL devices, including V :)

wish you luck :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] yuskhayru:
ok. ive try update it via OTA, while keep the root access using voodoo rootkeeper, but no success. the main problem here is ive installed CWM. i for got about this "Keep in mind that at the moment installing CWM will broke OTA updates, even if you unroot and/or remove CWM." so there is no chance to update it via OTA anymore right?:victory:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ebi4321:
CHANCES are always CHANCES, so you have to try them ;)

otherwise we wouldn't call them "Chance" ;)

but, in theory, with aforementioned conditions, it's hard to believe that you will be able to update via OTA... :(

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ChrisB:
I took the shipping rom from the FTP, replaced the radio rom, and upgraded, then I ran the BT3900.cab on the phone..

So now I got:

Rom 1.22.00WWE

Radio 1.08.00

ExtRom 1.22.557 WWE

BT 1.0.0.3900

Anything else I can do? or MUST do?

What else can you recommend to install?

I got TomTom3 on it too..

I hope that the radio/bt upgrade is working better with my SonyEricsson HBH30 and the BT GPS..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] BoSJo:
Well the biggest bug is in the BT.

Im testing Radio 1.08.00 with BT .3900 and it is the best i've tried until now. You can get on the Wiki and start reading about what to do and not. Your current settings looks fine, asuming it's a Dangaard sold device.

The ROM numbers is not always better just because they are higher!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ChrisB:
Thanx bosjo..

the BT is working GREAT!!

I think the wifi is better to, I have better connection now.. hmm... :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
I think it's awesome! I use it at my house when I can't find my remote control or when I'm too damn lazy and it's too far away lol. Also when I'm at the mall I mess around in Target and Best Buy and amuse my friends by changing the channels and volume hahaha.

Now I've been using the Samsung WatchON app that came with the phone... little did I know there are a million other "Remote Control" apps on the Play Store. Does anyone use the IR Blaster, and if so what app do you use?!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jejb:
I've used it, but I was disappointed in the remote control functions. Way too basic. I'll have to check out the app store to see what else is available. Thanks for the heads up on that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mikejones13:
I use it all the time with watch on on all my tvs in the house. Don't need a fancy remote to change channels. I love to use it at the bar or restaurant we are at. The look on people's faces when it's close to the end of the game or the winning shot and bam tv turns off....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
I used it a few times when I was out and when I first got the phone. I don't watch TV normally so I don't use it anymore.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sweets55:
Same here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] flu13:
It's a neat feature, but I already have a nice universal remote, so there's no great need for an under-functioned app that requires me to wake up the phone to use. Plus, I'm a sucker for hard buttons.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jens_Karlsson:
This seems nice
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dtom2444:
I was thinking of buying a Logitech Harmony remote before purchasing the phone. Unfortunately, the phone won't recognize my soundbar/AV receiver (JBL Cinema SB400) so I think I'll stick with the universal remote.

Note: Did not know there were other remote control apps in the Play store so maybe I'll look into those first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] yougivemerash!!!:
The best app to use is Smart IR Remote for Galaxy S4. Let me tell you, this app is worth the higher price! You can virtually control everything with it and customize a remote for multiple devices, set macro functions, etc.

I use the app with my Window A/C units (Frigidaire and Whirlpool), time warner box, JVC TV, Vizio TV, Panasonic Soundbar, Panasonic Bluray player, and even this cheap Lasko oscillating fan I have!!!

Theres no need for a logitech harmony remote. This $10 app will cover everything. The Watch On app is pretty basic and I didn't use IR that much, but with the Smart IR Remote app I use IR every day.

EDIT: I can't find the Smart IR app on the play store for some reason right now, but if you search "Smart IR Remote for Galaxy S4" it's the first link to pop up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] holdenjr1642:
I use it to show people with iphones what their devices can't do. In this case they can't say "I'm sure there's an app for that."
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Stealyourface:
Have to agree with this. I use watchon with this app. Though it is pulled from the play store right now for some unknown reason. I guess people will have to get it elsewhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] trouthunter7:
I use it all the time. As my Flam Damly loses the remote every dang day.:cyclops:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] miketucky350:
Yep same here with 5&3 yr olds remotes always gone. So its nice being able to control all 3 TVs ect from this. Plus the ability to navigate through my DVR and DVD players just like the real thing is bad a**.

From the devs,

Hi Brian,

Unfortunately due to an error the app doesn't show anymore on Google Play. We're working right now to fix this, however communication with Google is extremely slow and it may take a few days.*

We're extremely sorry about this, and we're doing our best to have it fixed.

Best regards,

Alina

Hopefully they get back up soon. If not you can contact them on their web site. Or on their Facebook page.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
They said it might take awhile for it to get back on the market, but this seems like a little too long to come back. Anyone get any updates via email recently? I've got the paid app backed up with titanium backup. Too bad I don't have the free version so some people can use it. I wonder if other legitimate third party app stores have it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bender beerman:
I totally used it when I was on tw, would again if they ever get the ir blaster working on carbon *with a free app*. It's novel and functional, but it's not worth paying extra for.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
Yeah. I don't know what the delay is. They aren't on slideme.org. Their app was nicer looking that the other like apos out there and certainly cheaper that another competing app that looks like total garbage.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shawn1224:
I use WatchOn all the time with my set top box and TV but I wouldn't mind being able to tie it in with my xbox as well. I guess that's asking too much though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Stealyourface:
The smart ir app has xbox compatibility. But to be honest I only use it to turn the Xbox on and sign in. Then I use the smartglass app from there. Just controls better. And don't have to be pointing directly at my Xbox to control it. But it could be useful for when there is no wifi or something I guess.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
How??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Stealyourface:
The xbox has an ir sensor. For the media remote.

So it basically replaces that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
I'm saying though... how do I connect it (GS4) to the Xbox, with the WatchON app?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Stealyourface:
I said smart ir app, the one pulled from the play store. Not the WatchON app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Ahhh, gotcha. I prefer to turn my Xbox on with my controller anyway so I kill 2 birds with one stone lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Stealyourface:
I do that when I'm about to play a game. But when I'm in bed and too lazy to get up to only grab my controller to sign in so I can watch netflix, I use my phone :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] serchend:
which app did you use, I see there are a number of them out there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] GalaxyS5:
The one I used is The Off Button. Search TV-B-Gone in the play store and it shows up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Slade8525:
i use it for serious things like my TVs, pc's, receivers, etc. and also to screw with bar tv's friends' tv's/receivers etc or people etc for fun.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shawn1224:
So funny, that describes me to a tee. The smart IR app sounds like the workaround I've been looking for. I already use the smart glass app but since all my controllers are wired, there's always that painful crawl outta bed routine to turn on the xbox.

Now if only it could make me a sammich as well. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nevell:
I have the Smart IR app. I just searched Google for it. Works good on everything I tried so far including my AC.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
Don't post that stuff man. Getting a paid app for free is illegal and against the rules to post any of the sort on XDA (yes even mentioning it).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nevell:
Did I post an app? Did I say I got it for free? No I did not so. I said I found it doing a quick search on Google. Stop assuming. You know what they say about it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JoeFCaputo113:
You posted how to get an app for free... I did exactly what you said you diid and just like you said the first site after I hit search was a FREE DL link for the app... just sayin'. No need to get so defensive dude... just don't want this thread taken down that's all man!
