[Galaxy S III Accessories] Maphack:
Has it gotten progressively worse? I haven't taken mine off since I put it on the first time.

Also I've been trying to wear the battery out to 0% for the first couple charges..I know Google tells me it does nothing but the instructions say to...so idk.

What did you do?

[Galaxy S III Accessories] _Epic:
I followed the instructions and my battery lasts for days. I trust what ZeroLemon tells me. Also, I mess with my case all the time and stretch it out and it always goes back to a strong tight form.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bamba1260:
I'm about 5 days in now. I have not noticed any stretching, however, I do feel like it fits a bit loose.

For instance, when I am holding it towards the bottom end and I reach for the volume/power buttons

the whole thing kinda shifts. It isn't much, but it annoys me quite a bit. I plan on strategically using

bits of tape for a more uniform fit.

I've had mine for a month, and mine has never shifted in any way. Mine fits snuggly
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Maphack:
I sort of know what you mean.

It kind of bugs me to feel the phone at all :/ but nothing good comes without any consequences.

How about this 6x discharge thing? I'm managing to kill this battery in less than 24 hours, probably because of tethering.

I can't see myself getting 3 days out of this battery...

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bamba1260:
The day I got the battery it was at 48%. I used it for a little more than 24 hours with that initial charge till it died and then charged for 13 hours. Off that charge I made it 3 days and 18 hours with 6 hours screen on and mostly streaming music. Right now I'm at 15 hours with 70% left which seems a little worse then before, but that's 6 hours straight streaming with ****ty sprint service. It would take a bit of effort for me to kill it in 24h.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Maphack:
I didn't even turn my phone on and charged it fully before using it, let it die completely (two days) , recharged it and ran it down until it died and recharged it....but when I got the green light and unplugged it... It was at 81%,which was yesterday. I plugged it back in to get it to 100 and unplugged it this morning and I'm at 34% with about 4 hours of tethering.

Espn streak for the cash app seems to absolutely destroy my battery...

I dunno if I'm doing it wrong, the numbers are where they should be or zerolemon has some lemons...

I don't know if I should charge it tonight or try and get 6 full discharges... I heard it doesn't matter but it couldn't hurt..? Except for the article that explained how that can actually hurt...

Fml, so complicated

I'd probably kill it in 12 hours or less using wireless tether and nothing else

Yeah I feel the same way. I tend to ignore it though, since I do have like 3 times more battery life now :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Maphack:
How strictly did you follow their instructions to fully charge and discharge the battery 6 times before becoming more liberal with it? I feel like I need to charge tonight but I've only burned it down 2 times I think, maybe 3 hut I don't think so.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dewce:
I have (had?) a stock Nexus i9250 (not rooted), It started to give me problems in that it would be really flaky about charging. I left it on the charger overnight (it was on when I left it), and it would not boot up in the morning. I figured either my battery was shot or my usb board went bad. So I bought a new battery and a wall battery charger. So I charge up the new battery and put it in, and the phone still will not boot. I cannot get to bootloader or download modes, either. I tried doing the OMAPFlash method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1760787), as that saved my butt on my toro version (although my toro was rooted and running a custom rom, where this maguro is completely stock). However, when I run the OMAPFlash batch file, the script stops at ">>Please turn on device >>Waiting for device <omap usb>". Thing is, it will not turn on at all. I tried changing the driver from OMAP4460 to OMAP Flash driver, but no luck. Did my phone perish overnight? I've had an unlucky several weeks with my Gnex's. Thanks for any suggestions.

For omapflash, the device doesn't even need to have the battery in

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dewce:
Yes, I know. The battery is out when I try the omapflash. The script stops at Waiting for device <omap usb>. I was just reiterating I can't get it to turn on (or acknowledge it's plugged into a computer or charger). I tried changing cables and usb ports as well.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Try plugging the battery in and out, while USB is connected.

a maguro wrote this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dewce:
Thanks, but that didn't work. Looking closely in the usb port, the wires are stripped off the connector and are mashed together at the bottom of the port. I suspect this may be shorting the phone out (or at least keeping it from turning on). Looks like I'm gonna have to take the phone apart,

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luke-b:
in what format do you have this update you say you have a .ZIP what zip is this?

you say you are s-off so to get this update i would return your Rom and recovery both to stock and then check your Cid and if its available for you CID recieve the OTA update to change your CID and MID so you can receive it.

The OTA update will update everything. so your firmware, update it to 2.24.401.12 and also to the latest radio
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] progressive_edm:
I'ts the (2.24.401.12) firmware zip. Got it from Vomer's post if that helps http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2183023&page=2496 . And i thought with having S-off you could just update without worrying about the Cid and Mid? I will take your suggestion into consideration, thanks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luke-b:
Yes you can update the firmware without changing the cid and mid. But that only refers to the hboot. For full upgrade to 4.2.2 if it's not already available for your cid then you would need to change the cid and mid to receive it. And remember to have a stock recovery. There are guides available if you look through the thread about the update people have posted how to do this. It's Easiest and safest way to do this.

fastboot commands to run RUU files will get you into trouble
[Hardware Hacking General] KasunKV:
Hey Guys..

Recently my Xperia Mini Pro touchscreen started to not respond. First it began as I slide out the HW keyboard the touch screen was not responsive. Then I slide the HW keyboard back in. It was normal. The shortly after, In the normal keyboard position the touch screen began not to respond. It sometimes responds. Mostly its stuck. I can navigate and operate the phone using the HW keyboard. But touch is not working. Sometimes i can fix it by holding the power key and bringing up the menu for shutdown and selecting shutdown with the HW keyboard out and the after switching to normal mode and cancelling it. Then the touch responsiveness comes back. But this doesn;t work all the time. I have updated the OS via PC companion and did a repair and completely reset the phone. But the problem still remains. Can some one please help me out. IS this problem fixable? then how can i fix it. Do i have to change the phone completely. is it useless now.. I need urgent help. If there are any tips, methods to fix this or at least understand what happened and how, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, mind if i ask some help from you guys?

i was moving my photos and videos from phone storage to my SD card after connecting to PC through USB cable, it took awhile so i just leave it and do my thing.

After i came back for it it was done but when i scroll through my sd card there was nothing inside and all the photos and videos cant be found in phone storage too :crying:

i tried downloaded some recovery software but it cant detect my sd card.( when i'm accessing my sd card, i only able to access it through Portable device section in My Computer)

there is a LOST.DIR folder inside sd card, what should i do to prevent it from being deleted or override?

is there any way to recover the data? there are more than 1k of photo there, all are precious memory when i'm traveling in Europe and UK :crying:

Thanks.

P.S.:my phone isn't rooted yet
[HTC Rezound] tmettler5:
A friend of mine had her phone stolen, so I loaned her my old rooted Rezound. I had wiped, factory resetted a million times, both in recovery, and through the phone settings. There were no images, no pictures, no files at all on the phone. When she logged in and set it up, my pictures came up in her VZ Backup files. How did this happen?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Did you wipe the internal SD Card also?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Factory resetting doesn't clear the internal storage nor the SD Card. Depending on how OP wiped the phone, it may have been missed also. You have to specifically format both of those. I was asking if the OP did just that.
[HTC Rezound] tmettler5:
I did not specifically do that, no.
[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
oh well dude. you said no files were on the phone, if you had deleted the pictures from both sd cards and still did a factory reset than all pictures should be gone

when you said "There were no images, no pictures, no files at all on the phone." i thought you had either did a factory reset than cleared the sd cards in recovery or manually cleared the sd cards than factory reset

sorry for the confusion there [MENTION=2479397]mjones73[/MENTION]
[HTC Rezound] tmettler5:
I did do a complete factory reset, both from recovery and through settings several times. In fact, when I flash ROMs I wipe data and cache three times just to be sure. I went to gallery--no images. In file manager there were no files found. Since factory reset and wiping data says it will wipe ALL data, I didn't think I needed to specifically wipe internal SD storage. I assumed that was done on the factory reset and data wipe. I did not include an external sd card with the phone, either. They didn't pop up until she set up VZ Backup. Some of them were pictures I had taken, some were attachments from emails, I am just curious how my pictures showed up with her VZ Backup. It makes me wonder...

Lesson is when you reset a phone to loan to someone, give away, sell, or donate, probably a good idea to make sure it is squeaky clean...
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
the photos are probably from the internal sd or vz backup backed up some without you realizing it.

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to start some Android development however I've run into a couple of problems during Dev environment set up. I've been following the adt-bundle install instructions as I opted to use the ADT bundle.

This first problem is that the Android Virtual Device Manager will not run. I get a message saying "Failed to execute tools\android.bat The system cannot find the specified file". No idea what to do about that one.

The second is that I cannot run my app. I'm trying to run it on my phone (HTC Desire C) how I keep getting the message :

I've also tried connecting my N7 tablet up and install the usb drives in the sdk and I get the same errors :(

It's incredibly frustrating and I would really appreciate some guidance.

[Transformer TF300T General] Lamski:
I have had my TF300 for about 6 months and have done a clean wipe/factory data reset 3 times already due to things getting so slow and sluggish. It seems to be pretty good right after the factory reset but then after about a month or so the web browser slows down and just takes forever to load pages and respond to touches. It asks me to "wait/close" on almost every web page. It can take up to 30 seconds or more to load simple web pages that load in milliseconds on my desktop (my download speed is 55 Mbps according to speedtest.net). Will rooting the TF300 do anything for a better web browsing experience? I have tried all the popular browsers (stock, chrome, boat, dolphin, maxthon,) and none of them offer a good browsing experience. My wife's Nexus 7 runs flawlessly and if my TF300 would run as fast as the Nexus 7 I would be happy. So will rooting help me with web browsing speed at all or is this a whole different issue?

Give Cromi or AOKP custom rom a try, both are really smooth!:good:
[Transformer TF300T General] gremly:
I can only agree in that. When you have no need to take the ASUS warranty, try an alternative Rom.

After first try, you will see, that this is really simple. The several roms have their pros and cons and you have to find the one,which fits to you best.
[Transformer TF300T General] Rirere:
Like others have said, there are some software fixes you can try. However, the problem with the TF300T (and ASUS' other Transformer tablets) is that the internal memory has really lousy I/O speeds, so whenever your device has to read/write from disk, it'll come to a crawl. There are some fixes though, like data2sd that can speed things up.
[Transformer TF300T General] Lamski:
I have also read this recently. But has this actually been tested? And why are we just now hearing about this if the tf300 is nearly a year old already. Also, it seems to do pretty good right after a factory reset which seems to tell me the issue is software based... I would be very happy if data2sd could speed it up even more. i'll have to give it a try.
[Transformer TF300T General] Weaponx525:
I remember when I purchased my tf300 last year that it was just ok.. However there would be random crashes and slow down. After rooting and installing CROM-X I noticed a significant difference. It's a little tricky to mod but it was worth it. Honestly it's a huge improvement but there are still some nagging issues with IO. I have tries Data2sd..maybe that's my next step
