Thanks for the reply. I don't understand much about smart phones or how they work, but trust me when I say I have had AMPLE experience with electronics, circuit boards, hardware, etc., particularly in the computer/laptop world. I code quite a bit of websites, and understand almost all things networking and OS. Just never really got into it with the phones.

Getting super excited to see the sheer amount of modding you can do though. Would love to break into a hardware modding world if it ever comes available. That's where it's at with electronics for me. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
Well glad u got it sorted, lucky guy you are lol.

As for boards and the like, if it didn't work I would've suggested replacing the motherboard and/or power daughter board. But for a skyrocket may not be worth the money.

Since you're a hardware guy, maybe mess around with the phone and JTAG? Finding a way to unbrick without it would be very helpful :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahanddeem:
Since the problems started after a physical damage (fall) , I wonder how would Odin or wipe and flash might work !

Definitely a hardware damage...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wild20:
Yeah, it kinda puzzled me, too. I believe the power button might have been internally stuck, but that's just one idea. Could have been a loose connection, too.

Can you lose some solid state memory with firmware on it, but the SS memory still be OK to right another copy on?

More than likely it was your power button

Hi!

I am a Optimus G Pro F240L user and other day i have downloades TWRP from the following link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2361941

but when i tried to make a backup to the external sd card it didn't recognize the card (with 0mb).

I have a 32 gb external sd card.

Does anyone knows how can i fix this problem?

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus G Pro] thecubed:
Is your SD card formatted as exFAT ? If so, the kernel I'm using for TWRP doesn't support it, since it's a closed source module :(

Sorry about that. My suggestion would be to get a separate SD card for backups/restores for now.

Thanks!

Thanks you!

Format to FAT32 and twrp will see the MicroSD.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PostMeridianLyf:
Now that LTE has been accessible in my neighborhood Id like to try and play BF3 while on my tethered network.

However, Tmobile only allotted me 500 mb per month complementary. I still tether, but only with user agent switched.

Now when I go to play BF3, in battle log it says my computer must be windows vista or above. So its reading the user agent and not letting me play =[

any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DizDroid:
Yeah, stop tethering your phone to play BF3. Buy home internet service.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PostMeridianLyf:
Why? Lte is faster than my home isp...

But thanks for your valued input.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] trey2050:
I have to get internet through a satellite. Super slow speeds but I get Tmobile LTE and I get about 40megs down
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
Wow. I get 50mb down 10 up and TV for 50 on xfinity. I did use tether when the internet went down for around an hour because there was a really bad thunder storm and it messed with their signal. It was pretty good. My Nat was moderate though. And I only tried it on BO 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chicago281:
I've had LTE in my area now for a month or so I would say. Used it the other day to tether my PS3 while I played Black Ops 2. Connection was great, NAT was open I believe, and my connection in the game was always green with 4 bars and zero lag. I eventually hit the free 500MB tethering limit with T-Mobile and upgraded to the 4GB option. It's good to have in a backup situation when the power goes out or I lose home internet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Punchatron:
If you're rooted you can try Wifi Tether:

https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

I play BF3. The problem will be latency, not bandwidth. From what I've read using wifi tether no on has had a problem yet. Not sure how you're lag will be like. Try it out and let us know if it's playable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PostMeridianLyf:
Sorry for the late reply, i dont use wifo tether. Tried that and got some very strange cut outs when doing speed tests.

Usb tethering gives me constant speeds. I spent a good month toying with wifi tethering using different adapters and they all had the same results (even an expensive 5ghz 500mbps wireless ncard would give me inconsistent signal.)

I am rooted but didnt have the tethering mod installed until my 500 mb free ran out. Hoping that when it comes back next month i can try to play bf3 again.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] bleuwave:
Could be lato.

Also, if you use this font, there's a chance some apps might not display the font perfectly because this font has a different proportion. No big deal though. Enjoy!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MarcSinger:
Futura, I believe.

http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/bitstream/futura/
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Hung0702:
The font is Futura. Note the distinct "g" and "j".

I do not recommend this font as a system font. Stick with Roboto (4.2) or Roboto (4.3). Futura is not a neutral font and inflects too much emotion onto words. It's intended for brief, pointed logos. Not for General purpose reading. Roboto not only looks good on high dpi screens, but it is neutral enough to allow you to focus on the content of the text rather than thinking about how it looks.

Believe me, I've experimented with Segoe UI, and while it looked great, I sometimes found myself being distracted with how good it looked as opposed to what I was reading. Also, the shape of Roboto characters have the highest readability of any sans-serif font.

Although I recommend Calibri for document creation. Just not for reading.

I have xperia z and i love it. I always swim with it on the beach. Even dive about 24ft on the beach while filming. No problem.

Its just the battery and the speakrrs for me after being wet get so weak. But everything else is good.

I just want to know anyone have try the s4 active and is it better? Thanksd.

I have it for about 5 months now.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MinedSafe:
Swimming with XZ, man you are asking youself a trubble ;) If the salt water gets inside you can expect your phone to die soon.

Once I had a sammsung. I probably wouldn't go near them again that oversaturated, kid looking screen is just not my cup of tea.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockysiccion:
No man, all people saying that is bull.

Ita just all my waterproof phone moto defy, xperia active, xperia z been using them in salt water with no problem.

Just dont let the any water salt/fresh inside the phone then its all good.

And i dont care about amolet or not because its just a wate of time to argue all i want is that my screen is usable.

Im just afraid that the samsung active have a small rubber seal. Not like in xz all the port have big ass seal.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joejoe23:
Both has the same ip7 so my guess is the same. From pocketnow review of s4 active, the screen of the active can't be used when it is wet while the z can. I mean Wet, not when submerged. For the speaker I'm not sure. Cause I don't have the s4 active hehe.

True same regulation but a lower quality screen only a tft screen. And only 8 mega vs 12 on the xperia z.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joejoe23:
Z's screen isn't any better. Tft too. To me, looking from YouTube reviews of z vs active, the active looks brighter and it looks better than the z. Maybe its just me. Hehe. And one advantage of the active is the flapless audio jack but I'll never trade the beautiful xperia z just for that.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante501:
TFT on the active vs the amolad screen on the S4 that's what I ment. The active is waterproof but specs wise the active isn't as good as the S4 and yes the flaps can be annoying but we'll I think so that the z looks better then the active. The Z actually has better specs then the active. In some areas.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joejoe23:
I'm comparing the active with the z lol. The s4 isn't mentioned in op. Overall I think the active is better but I'm not really bothered with that. I'm happy with the z and I'll just wait for my contract to finish and see what's good in the future to replace the z.

U can take fine pictures and videos underwater with the xperia z. It always works for me just fine. And I agree I am a sucker for removable batteries. I do think the active is not a very good looking phone. Imo.

Yes I agree. Then some ppl will come in and say don't you read the manual? You can't bring in to the pool blah blah. The water resistance is just for accidents.

Guys i already got the active.

Screen

And damn the screen is so better! Way better than my z

I dont care if its amoled or not. As long it is usable in light i dont care realy.

Battery

The active is longer but not much (on my use)

But hate the active for not having a dock or wireless charging. Im scared the flap might get thorn in time.

Build

Z is better. Because the back of active is very scary, i mean when putting it under water i get much more confident in my z. But the build quality is better than s4

Camera

The z of course.

Other thing i notice or my personal preferences

Gps lock better on active

Active is faster on daily basis but not much

And the speaker after getting wet is still very loud not like the z.

Im using my main phone is galaxy note 2

And my secondary phone i think ill be using active because of the battery.

But when im goint to the beach for vacation ill be using the z.

All i can say is that you canot go wrong with both phones.

Lets not hate active or z. Remeber its just a phone guys.

Does anyone have access to a service manual or teardown for this phone? Its waterproof and doesn't seem obvious how to disassemble it.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananapeapod:
From how I understand it, there really isn't a way to back out of it now. If you want to have the ability to unlock the bootloader and/or root, I would highly recommend doing it now. It doesn't take very much time at all: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2307439

Also, after you root and unlock make sure to use a root keeper before taking the update (otherwise you will have to reinstall the system/ROM it to get root back). Good luck!
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amwenguer:
I rooted mine a while back and didn't get any available updates (maybe because I went to aosp based ROMs soon after?) so was no need to use a rootkeeper app.

Something changed in the last few months? Thanks for the quick reply by the way
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananapeapod:
You didn't get an update because you're not on the stock ROM you're on whatever AOSP ROM. The OTAs only apply to phones that are still on the stock ROM. Custom ROMs like yours generally come rooted so a root keeper is not necessary since when you upgrade to a newer version or a different ROM, it too will be pre-rooted.

You're welcome, others have helped me a lot, so I"m just passing it on!
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkomarnicki:
Just wanted to add, if you wanted to put off unlocking for some reason, you can just root it and use titanium backup to freeze the updater. Then it'll quit nagging you/her.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amwenguer:
I used a utility a while back from Dj bliss that was literally a 1 click unlock and 1 clock root. I'll probably do that up. Rooted, unlocked... It all voids warranty right? What's benefits to rooting only without unlocking. . I know she doesn't care much about custom kernels. In fact, she doesn't care about any of this stuff... But I figure having the ability to still root is important to me. I made the mistake of taking an update a while back and waiting to root. Screwed me up for a while till they found that latest exploit. Was kicking myself for weeks.

Thanks for all the replies.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananapeapod:
Very simplistically, root allows you to install apps that work deep within the system (like titanium backup - being able to freeze Verizon bloat, etc.). Unlocking allows you to install different ROMs allowing you to come up to android 4.2.2 and configure your system a lot.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deviantartjr:
My phone also automatic download the update, I'm stock rooted, don't know why I got the update
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrmo:
Verizon is pushing the update to all phone using a schedule of sorts. Think it goes by areas maybe states.

To stop the annoying 'update now' messages, freeze updater.apk using Titanium. Since the update fixes the 'unlock bootloader' exploit, you should unlock now if you are considering that avenue.

Hi there,

Firstly, let me say there's a bucket load of info in these forums - phew!

But on browsing, it seems there's an assumed level of knowledge on upgrading devices and I have no idea where to start.

I'm in Australia, have an XDA II on the Optus network (unlocked), device info:

ROM: 1.66.00WWE

ROM DATE: 02/20/04

RADIO: 1.08.00

PROTOCOL: 1337.18

EXTROM: 1.66.165

I'd like to upgrade to the latest Windows Mobile (2003 SE I think) but have no clue as to where to get the software, and what steps I need to take.

There's probably a guide or something somewhere here but I'm having troubles finding it and was wondering if there's a place for newbies to XDA modifications to go to try and learn what's involved.

Hoping someone could please assist me.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TallDwarf:
Yesterday I bought a Telus HTC One from a person off of Craigslist ($475), little did I know there is a cluster of stuck pixels along with several more stuck pixels at the top of the phone. I have unlocked it (I bought it locked to Telus, paid $25 for unlock) and put my Bell SIM in it.

The phone came as so:

-Bootloader is "*tampered*" along with an unlocked bootloader (which I can fix, I'm pretty sure: with s-off and re lock)

-Without the Beats Logo on the back (he took it off)

-Running some pre-release 4.2.2 ROM, rather then the stock Telus firmware (I'm sure I can flash the RUU)

-With a scratch on it which wasn't mentioned on the listing

-Digitizer is faulty, multiple stuck pixels and one large cluster (Well, "large" seeing that the pixel density is so high)

Since, I bought this second hand as well as being on Bell (I'm in Canada btw) would I be able to get RMA? As the EULA denounces that I being a second hand buyer can not have the warranty...I however do have the S/N stickers for the RMA and my seller will give me the receipt.

So should I get a refund or risk a possible reject from HTC RMA?
