[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] choboii:
Hello fellow S4 users. I will be getting my S4 tomorrow and had a question about transferring my data from my HTC One. If I backup my HTC One with Titanium Pro and then root my S4, will I be able to get all the apps along with the data from my HTC One to my S4? Thanks

Also do you guys think Titanium would be better for this or GO Backup?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Slade8525:
not sure. you could try flashing your HTC One backup ROM on the GS4 and see how that goes though (SARCASM DO NOT TRY IT LOL).

ive honestly never tried using one TiBu on a different phone, though i have done it successfully between stock and custom ROMS, so it may work. if i were you, i would download all the apps again, and restore ONLY data, then check the apps all out and see. i could (and probably am) wrong though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GuestX0019:
mine basically reloaded from PlayStore from my One S

you can make a copy of your TB and put it on pc then copy back to s4, not sure if that works or not to a new phone

actually if i remember i had to re buy tb pro
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sameer1807:
I have successfully transferred my tibu from s3-s4 but not sure across different makes.

Im having a hard time finding help with this so any info is appreciated

I have an Alpine 147bt deck that im using to stream Pandora and am currently running CM10.1.1 on my gs3. Right now it is a PAIN to get it to sync. It only syncs after a reboot of the phone, and if i turn the car off to get out and run an errand, when i get back in i have to again, it will play one track, then lock up, and require another reboot.

Like i said, im currently on CM10.1.1 but ive had this issue with numerous roms, both TW and AOSP. Any ideas for fixes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] razingkane93:
I have a similar problem with my SG3, Alpine138BT and Pandora. I'm running CleanRom 7 but it also did this when stock. When connecting the HU either says connecting (but doesn't) or says no unit. I have to 1st get it to connect to the Bluetooth setting on my HU then switch the HU to Pandora then start and stop Pandora on my phone until it syncs. Once sync'd it plays correctly. Like you if I turn the car off I have to start the whole process all over again.

There is a Bluetooth firmware update for your HU but it does not specifically list your issue. I'd flash it anyway maybe it will fix the problem. I found one for my HU as well.

I have not meet my 10 posts here so I cannot enter the link....lookup your HU on the Alpine-USA website scroll to the bottom of your HU information page and there is a Software Update link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DanGarion:
I'm having this same exact issue with my 149bt deck from Alpine. It's great when it works but a pain in the ass when it doesn't. Sometimes the thing you describe to fix it doesn't even work as well.

This issue occurs even with the stock Vanilla Android ROM on my wifes phone. We both have Galaxy Nexus phones (I'm running CM 10.1.1)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pihug12:
Hello !

I got a new Kindle Fire HD 7". I updated the firmware to 7.4.3 (still unrooted).

I installed the ADB drivers (here or here), followed the Amazon procedure, read all the FAQ... and then I can't even boot the device in fastboot mode with the following command :

fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product

When I enter the command, "< waiting for device >" is shown. Then I plug the USB cable, the device starts and boots into the stock ROM. :mad:

ADB is working (adb devices returns my device). ADB is enabled in the security settings. "Android Composite ADB Interface" is shown into the Windows device manager.

I rebooted my computer twice. No change.

EDIT : adb reboot bootloader restarts the device in stock ROM too. :(

Anyone got an idea ?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
If I remember correctly you need to be rooted first or have a fast boot cable. If you root it try running adb shell su -c "reboot bootloader"

Just curious why are you trying to use fast boot while on stock unrooted?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Good call. Pretty much anything you do in fastboot without the 2nd bootloader installed will ruin your device.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pihug12:
Hi !

I want to use fastboot to install the 2nd bootloader. I'm following Hascode's instructions and seokhun's instructions. Checking if fastboot is working seems to be STEP 0 in [MENTION=4243514]Hashcode[/MENTION] post.

The "Amazon OS 7.4.3 pre-rooted" is downloaded in STEP 2 : it's strange because it seems root is required in STEP 1 and I don't know if this zip file is flashable at this point.

I don't have a fastboot cable (yet). I'll try to get my device rooted and try your command.

Thanks for your help !

Upgrade fromEOS-umts_everest-20130705-170 to EOS-umts_everest-20130705-172 failed and my xoom MZ601 is now stuck at red Motorolla logo. I have tried clearing the cache as well with no luck and have even tried to install 170 again but its still at that red logo, can somebody suggest something.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j32olger:
Had the same issue - ended up installing nightly - EOS-umts_everest-20130504-161.zip (just happened to be on my sdcard) - this worked.

It should work if you can boot back into recovery - Power + press sound down on splash until recovery option is shown.

I had also erased a load of partitions and reflashed boot.img and recovery.img - you may not need to do this if you can erase partitions from within recovery.

You get into fastboot by the same process above - Power + press sound down on splash until fastboot option is shown

Has anyone experienced a regular lock up on the 02 XDA2i - if so I may have the fix.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TheBigWomble:
The freeze on the xda2i happens after it has been running various programs, no one program was the root cause of the issue but when the program was ended the memory it was using should be freed up for other applications to use - but doesn't.

O2 will claim that 3rd party apps are causing this but in my opinion the cause is the 02 Active software which is installed after a hard resest where it allocates itself a memory address within the ROM.

SOLUTION:

1. Hard Reset after backing up

2. Choose Corporate User

3. Enter PIN 0506

This will install a corporate edition of Mobile 2003SE and will not include the 02 stuff.

Hope it helps - if anyone has any further bluetooth or tomtom problems I can probably help too.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] alix776:
ive not seen any lock ups on my xda2i at all runing tomtom and a bt headset
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] TheBigWomble:
Are you using an 02 XDA though?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] afkaron:
ThebigWomble,

Thans for the fix on freezing XDA 2i.

This id very useful.

I have two question if you would help me.

Tomtom 3 keeps loosing its favourites and recent locations.

How I can save them manually and reinstate them whenever they are lost.

Some it say no maps installed when in fact two maps are installed and on the Storage Card.

How I can unlock and unhide the extededROm on XDA 2i

Thanks for the help.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] alix776:
who me yes ive had no lockups at all really and i usually have ie and email running in the back ground and well as msn
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] webster:
I too have experienced the lockups on my XDA2i even with the corporate version of Mobile 2003SE installed. It seems to happen after I've used bluetooth (headset only) for a while. The only third party software I have installed at the moment is Resco Explorer.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] deadparrot:
i've removed the o2 interfaces and ****, but kept the task manager. mine regularly locks up, but usually when i go into the task manager and end the item called "programs" it the says something along the lines of "unhandled shell exception. attempting to reboot the shell." then it soft resets itself. not a major problem, just an anoyance.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pablo:
yes, i've the same problem

my new xda2ii locks up very often

and during the blackout, i can receive incoming calls

during the blackout, if make a call to the xda2ii, it seems the line is free and ringing, but the pda stil remain off!!!

the only way to "get up" to the pda is reset it with the stylo

all other buttons are disabled

what can i do?

i've tried it also with installing the latest italian rom, and the problem is the same

so O2ACTIVE is not the cause of the problem, because the italian rom doesn't include that program/interface

NOW, i've tried to come back to O2ROM, without installing the O2 interface, using the trick of "corporate user"

i'll advise you about the results

any suggestion on resolving this problem?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Anton.Valleyman:
I took the o2 active stuff off some time ago and lockups persist...

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pablo:

i resetted my pda today afternoon, and after 2 hours... i've got another pda lock

need manual reset to "wake up", missing 2 phone incoming calls

i think it's a serious problem

any other had success with this problem?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] pablo:
hello guys

any suggest?

the pda still blocks itself many times during a day, and i miss all the calls during that time

it's a terrible bug

any suggestion?

opps sorry big womble have been busy for a while yes its an o2 xda2i
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] bluebotle:
Ok here is how to turn off the phone, ive just done it without having a problem.

1) Start Tomtom with it communicating to the Bluetooth GPS and Phone is on.

2) Whilst tomtom is running turn on flightmode (turning off all Wireless and Phone)

3) Go back into Tomtom and it should have lost its connection to BT you will see it hasn't disabled the GPS though!

4) Turn on BT in the Bluetooth Settings in the settings menu of the XDA2i

5) XDA2i will then pop up a message saying turn off flight mode first, try to close that popup and it will take several seconds whilst it closes the popup.

6) Hey presto the delay was caused by the XDA2i trying to turn on Wirelss with out the Phone.

7) You now have just wirelss on and not the phone.

Let me know if this works for you, it has for me each time.

Cheers

Xda2i locks up

It is one month since I bought. Sofar more than 20 hard resets. 100 soft resets. Why O2 is not coming out with fix.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Barogio:
Ya I've only had mine a week and have had to soft reset almost once a day. Just switching to transcriber mode or whatever. I've mailed O2, waiting for a response.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andyclap:
Me too - My XDAII ran reasonably stably, and was a useful device. The XDAIIi is going back to the shop. I've had far too many problems and I'm normally quite forgiving...

Just a sample:

Regular lock-ups

Subtle incompatibilities with software (e.g. provided GPRS monitor prevents GPRS reconnecting)

Phone never regains the signal if you try to dial when out of signal range (need a soft reset).

Rapid battery discharge - Didn't charge overnight and awoke to a completely flat XDA.

Microphone - People simply cannot hear me clearly

Camera - Fuzzy pictures because of simple software bugs make camera useless

Alarm bug - Microsoft should be ashamed - it's still there

Speed - seems far more unresponsive during normal usage especially just after wake-up, and occasionally seems to run in slow motion.

The biggies are the mic quality and the lock ups - basically it's just not fit for its intended purpose, so I beleive that I am within my consumer rights to get a full refund.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Barogio:
From O2 :-

"Unfortunately we do not have a date for the release of the ROM for the xda2i but it will be available from the xda web site www.my-xda.com when it is ready for release."
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] adad:
I really want to purchase a xdaIIi, I really don't know whether I should buy it. Other than the above problem, the most worry is whether there is sim lock and whether I can use it with any sim cards of other countries.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] strongp:
Just wanted to add another voice to this thread - I'm on my second 2i and the problem still persists.

It happens when TomTom isn't in memory, and I normally have BT switched off. I've got a 1GB corsair SD, and I've run on both the O2 standard install and the blank install (Hard reset followed by soft reset to prevent O2 apps from installing).

Usually the lock occurs at the beginnig or end of a phone call.

I'm trying a new SIM to see if that works...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] austen_wrx:
I returned my XDAIIi as it just simple wouldn't run tomtom (it locked everytime the phone was in use), i now have an XDAIIs, tomtom runs fine on this, but i am getting about 3 lock ups a day for no apperent reason or have any real pattern. I have had it lock up when finishing a call, lock up when opening programs, closing programs, using options within programs!! Is there a fix, or should i bin it and get something diferent altogher??

I also seem to have a crap microphone, people sem to struggle to here me!!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] simesh:
I haven't got time to check through all the threads but thought I might let you know my experience with O2 XDA IIs.

I had all the locking up problems, couldn't log on to my home wiFi and numerous other faults. In the end I rang O2 Data Support (ring customer services first and bore them with your problem then you will get transferred at local rate rather than the scurrilous 60p per minute).

O2 DS told me to remove O2 Active (Hard Reset, Corporate, Pin=0506) and all problems are solved - thank gawd!

Simon
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] strongp:
The IIs is renowned for having a lousy microphone, the IIi locked up before I even installed TomTom on it - it's the nightmare we all though would never happen - phones that crash all the time.

Apparently the II mini from T-mobile is great.... O2 only do it in Asia and Auz tho...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] andy-c1:
strange my phone works fantasically as a phone ,my problems only start when tomtom is started ,but with flight mode on it works a dream as well ,no soft resets yet using them like that for 1 week now

it's only if i forget to turn flight mode on and the phone rings i get a lockup with tomtom 5 running otherwise it's a great phone , they must just sort the combo out asap
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] simesh:
So you can't use TomTom and receive calls then?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jaykumarr:
an advice to all the ppl.

hello guy's and gal's.

i too had lot's of lock up and freez.

and i think its because of the 1 gig sd you ppl are using.

i had used 1 gig sandisc no use it still used to freez.

then i tried lexer no use.

but when i went in for a transcend 1 gig (speed 80x)

i never had the problems again.

but am still not happy with the camera quality it really suck's.

hope this will help you people.

Does anyone know of an app that allows you to create custom speed profiles to limit your bandwidth? There is a way to do so on iPhones usng developer options and creating profiles. I know that I can change my network within my settings, but that would require me to reboot my phone. I need a way to swap the settings and continue to work, without rebooting the phone.

[Motorola Atrix HD] boredperson:
Hello!,I've had the Atrix HD for a little under a year now, and I was just wondering if rooting the phone is worth it. I've looked at the Development section and all that, but this is my first Android phone, and I'm worried about messing up and bricking my phone with no warranty. So is it worth it?
[Motorola Atrix HD] jram0421:
Its worth it.

I just rooted one yesterday its easy if you read
[Motorola Atrix HD] Aingaran:
if you love custamisation, and want to make full use of it, it is worth, else, go with the original one...
[Motorola Atrix HD] aquaticbullet:
You will be amazed what this beast is really capable of once you root and get a custom ROM which have no bloatwares.

In my case games like subway surfer used to lag on the stock JB but after rooting it is all smooth ride :cowboy:.

Go ahead and install mythtools ( say thanks to the dev) and unlock the bootloader and root it.

Bricking your phone is really difficult even if you intend to do so :p. So get going and post back when you are rooted.
[Motorola Atrix HD] spy_1134:
Rooting has essentially no chance of bricking your phone. What you do after you get root? That's a different story...

Unlocking your bootloader actually makes you safer if you have no warranty anyway. If you flash a custom recovery then you can back up your stock ROM and recover at any point or flash to a much nicer custom ROM. I'm running XenonHD personally and I'm very impressed with it. They recently added the option to overclock the processor to 1.9GHz and I've had a huge performance jump in games and multitasking. Now I just need the EB40 to support it. :p

If you're a new user then READ EVERYTHING THOUROUGHLY before you proceed. I consider myself rather skilled and even I have had a couple "OH SHI-" moments because I didn't read enough.

tldr: DO IT! But be careful.
[Motorola Atrix HD] diamond12:
Rooting was definitely worth it. Enabled tethering (on T-Mobile, so it would never have worked otherwise), AdFree, Screen Standby (while streaming video on hotel TVs).

Bootloader unlocking I haven't done it. I've lost a phone before and the idea that someone can get through the lock screen, access my data and use the phone bothers me.
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
If that's what you're afraid of then don't root...seriously. All that's necessary is adb with root access and all your info is mine.

adb root

adb pull /data /local/directory

adb pull /sdcard /local/directory

adb pull /external_sd /local/directory

some things are encrypted, some not. Not sure if its still this way, but WiFi passwords used to be stored as unencrypted text files on /data....CM7, btw.

Anyone of us here could steal your data if we had physical access to your device, some of us if you are on stock, no root, no unlocked bootloader.

The safest way is to have an unlocked bootloader, a password protected recovery (we don't a have one), and disable adb completely. Even then, I could get around that and access your stuff (snap-fastboot flash recovery non-protected-recovery.img :p). There is no way to fully lock out an android power user from an android phone, simple as that.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Blackest Pain:
Ohhh boy. I can't wait to see all the comments on this lol.

Yea its definitely worth it. Rooting/unlocking boot loader makes it so you can: 1) flash roms. 2) change the CPU speed at which you phone runs. 3) change you boot loader image (the animation that happens when you phone turns on/off). 4) and the most appealing one (to me), get ride of all that #!*$@!-+ blootwere (apps that come preinstalled that you don't use but aren't able to delete, thus freeing up a lot of memory/ram)

If your worried about bricking you phone, its become pretty hard to permanently brick It as long as you have the determination to fix it.

The MythTools will help you root/unlock bootloader/flash cwm for you so no worries about screwing up :D

Hit "thanks" if this helps!

[Motorola Atrix HD] speedbullet2:
I think rooting my atrix hd was well worth it in terms of de bloating all the junk off my phone that just slowed it down.

Not to mention with the PACMAN rom which I LOVE!!!!, you can also overclock the cpu to 2GHZ which is insane fast my girlfriend has the same phone and hers is so slow compared to mine now.

With the PACMAN rom and all the customization available like for example, under the launcher settings I set the transition effect in both the homescreens and apps drawer to cylinder out effect, which pretty much gave the phone a almost complete 3d UI effect along with HD Widgets.

I wouldn't take back rooting mine.
[Motorola Atrix HD] viera_ritz:
I rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and downgraded back to ICS so I could use the lapdock my dad got me for my birthday. I'm still on stock but I liked the stock look, just had to get rid of that horrible bloatware eating up my space. It was all worth it and I was a afraid to do it at first and just waited. Mythtools came out and it took no time at all to get it done. Try it, I think you'll like it
[Motorola Atrix HD] apokalypzninja:
Rooting is well worth the trouble. It took me 6hrs to root my galaxy s3 and I flashed cm 10.1. I love the customization, speed, themes, boot animations etc... The main thing about it is you have to do back-ups quite a bit.
