[Google Chromecast] FractalSphere:
The setup was fine, connected to my network, played Netflix and Youtube from various devices (phone, laptop, computer) no problems! (Interested in the Plex thread and others on here for locally stored video.. ;) )

What is happening is very strange, however. I have a TV with multiple inputs (typical these days, right?) but after I've been 'casting' to the Chromecast, it takes several tries to change away from that input to another input (my Xbox, or HD antenna).

ALSO - the TV powers itself ON after a while! WHY IS THAT? I left and came back home and thought I had left the TV on - which is not like me at all! And later that night it turned on AGAIN after I went to bed. I unplugged the Chromecast just to get it to stop, but ideally, I would want to leave it plugged in all the time.

What is making the TV turn on?

Will moving my TV input to anything other than the Chromecast port stop it?

Is there a soft power-off option for the Chromecast device?
[Google Chromecast] Andrmgic:
Sounds like you're having issues with their chrome cast's HDMI CEC. It can be used to automatically change inputs to the one the chrome cast is using and even turn on tvs.

You could disable HDMI control for your TV and it would prevent the issues from occurring.

Every manufacturer has a different name for their HDMI Control feature.

Who makes your tv, OP?
[Google Chromecast] allanmax:
I would suggest to just unplug the USB when not in use if your TV is turning on, I know my brothers TV its a westinghouse turns on anytime something connected to it turns on like the xbox or ps3 or laptop
[Google Chromecast] yoonus:
not so good to know. hope its fixed soon
[Google Chromecast] FractalSphere:
It's a Toshiba flat-screen, don't know the model. I'll put more detail up tonight when I can look. :silly: I also need to try having it off the Chromecast and starting a session and seeing if it draws the TV to that input. THAT would be nice, but the auto-powering on is a bad bug in my opinion.
[Google Chromecast] JesseMT4G:
My TV turns on automatically when just about anything powers on before the tv is on. Say I turn my ps3 on 1st, it will turn it on. Or plug a USB Flash drive in, turns it on. But, once in the HDMI spot, I can shut it down and it stays off. Very strange.

Hi guys.

I need some clear instructions, and software needed to install Windows 7 on my TG01. I do not know most of the stuff I see posted in threads, so I need something even a retard could do.

It already has WM 6.5 on it. And it works well. I need something with a great chance of not bricking it.

[TG01 Windows Phone 7 Development] pLUSpISTOL:
N00b guide

There is certainly not an obvious way to flash a TG01, especially to WP7, so here is a rough guide it's not perfect but hopefully this works for you. Please read and download everything you need before beginning the process.

Step 1: Flash WP7 bootloader

1) Download and install TG Downloader and the USB drivers. Reboot PC.

2) Fully charge your device battery. (Buy a cheap universal battery charger from eBay if necessary.)

3) Switch off your device.

4) Place your TG01 into "Download mode" as follows...

Devices with 0321 ROMs: Hold down Camera + Power buttons on boot.

Otherwise: Remove back cover, battery and SIM card. Carefully remove black sticker where the SIM card was. Get a piece of copper wire and twirl it so that you can easily hold it and touch Pin 1 and Pin 3 at the same time (known as "shorting"), see below image. Replace battery, short the pins with the copper wire and press the Power button.

After either of these your device should display a white LED on the front which means it is in Download mode. If not, switch off and try again. Also if using the PIN method, maybe try holding the Reset button on the back for 10 seconds straight after pressing the Power button.

5) Connect phone to PC. Start TG Downloader with admin rights (right-click shortcut or EXE and choose "Run as administrator".

6) TG Downloader will display an error, click "yes". Click change port to change to Toshiba DL port if necessary. Click "Download mode".

7) Download and extract wp7boot.bin, browse to it in TG Downloader and click "Start Download".

8) Do not disconnect your phone until the process completes, it shouldn't take longer than 5-10mins.

Step 2: Flash WP7 ROM

1) Download and extract these OS files. Install the Acer driver (32 or 64bit) and the ZTEiT Common Downloader.

2) Download a WP7 ROM. I recommend one of the latest 7.8 builds. Once the ROM is downloaded, extract, rename to flash.bin and place in the same directory as NPRG8650.hex and partition.mbn.

3) Fully charge your device battery.

4) Switch off your device.

5) Hold Camera + Power to boot into Download mode, device should display a blue LED.

6) Connect to PC. Start ZTEiT Common Downloader. Select Multi-Download.

7) Browse to folder with downloaded files. Click advanced and for each of the three files (flash.bin, NPRG8650.hex and partition.mbn) browse to them.

8) Click Start to begin flashing process. Do not disconnect device until complete. Could take 15-25mins.

Then your device should boot up into your new WP7 software. Please note camera does not function in any WP7 builds AFAIK and there may be bugs or other limitations.

If this guide works, please go thank these guys: qinwengui, mirolg, arag0n85 and kevinpwhite. Of course thank the ROM creator too :victory:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k4u5tik:
So I did a factory reset to try and free up some space but i didn't know it wouldn't. So I went in and saw that my legacy folder was the same a my emulated and sdcard0 and all that so I figured it was coped into several directories. Without thinking or google I deleted it. Big mistake. I cant get anything back. Everything is gone. obb and everything is gone. Downloads folder gone, everything. I did notice that if i start installing apps it add things like my android folder back in. All the other files are there in the home directory. The problem is in my /storage. in storage I had /storage/emulated /storage/sdcard0 /storage/usbdisk they all had the same files so that's why I deleted it. I feel so stupid because i always read about things before I do them for this reason. ANYWAY, my question is. Is there anyway to get my folders back. I don't care if its just the ones that come with the android out of the box. If i have to put them back manually then i guess thats what I have to do. Is there any work around or anyway someone could help me out get these dam directories back. If your going to tell me to use search don't bother because i already tried, unless you can give me a good search query to use.

I'm having a newb issue with wallpapers and Apex Launcher.

When I add a wallpaper to apex via QuickPic it looks great and aligned perfectly in quickpic but when viewing on the apex home screen it's alignment is off (ie. wallpaper is too big).

I can't seem to fix the issue and am wondering if there's a setting I'm missing in Apex or if there is a specific size for the TL.

Any ideas?

I have a rooted device and use Titanium Backup.

I noticed recently that the application com.sec.android.app.sns3 is chewing up quite a bit of my battery. I used Titanium to Freeze it, but it still showed up. So I uninstalled it, and guess what - when I look at the apps using most battery, there it still is, chewing 10%. Thing is, I uninstalled it, so I can't re-find it. As such, I'm a little confused as to how it can possibly still be running...?!

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] thatotherguy..:
so the on in Q&A is getting full of nothing so time to start one with the guide

I don't take any credit just posting,,,All credit goes to hotaru2k3 (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=4572661) and Rimidal (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=1468774) for writing step by step and video

first off you need to be on stock sprint rom or base for this to work. also it will work on bad esn phones

1. You should be rooted

2. Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm

3. Run Terminal Emulator

4. Type "su" (excluding quotation marks) and grant it superuser permission

5. Type "am start com.redbend.vdmc/com.htc.omadm.test.TestMainActivity" (excluding quotation marks)

6. You will get menu on your HTC

7. In that menu, select "API", then scroll down 'till almost end and select "simlock"

8. Reboot the phone and hopefully it would accept GSM SIM

9. Enter *#*#4636#*#* in your dialer

10.In the phone information section(the first one) set preferred network type to something that is GSM specific: "WCDMA Preferred", for example. The phone will switch to GSM mode

A rough summary for those that might be stuck (noob guide)

After a lot of trial and error, I finally got it to work on my HTC one (its the limited red edition btw, if that is relevant).

Thanks to viper for releasing this :o

Before you do anything, you should downgrade your radio firmware to 1.00.20.0315, I had issues while trying to use the app on 1.00.20.0626. A link to that is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2406330

Also make sure your software version in "Settings>About>Software information>More>Build number" is 1.29.651.10. There are some issues with the app for people with the latest build number (1.31.651.2) or an older build (1.29.651.7). If you have the latest build, I would recommend downloading and flashing a rom based off that build number, unlocking the phone, and switching back to whatever rom you want (since the unlock is permanent). For that purpose, I recommend Tranquil ROM from BadSeeds, found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2271764

I recommend this rom because it is based off of version 1.29.651.10, and it runs on the stock htc sense kernel, making it ideal for this procedure. After that, just follow the instructions on the first post, restart, and pop in your gsm sim. Make sure you've set the "WCDMA preferred" under preferred network type when you type in *#*#4636#*#* (I think that has been stated before, just repeating so that its all in one place :)). You may need to restart a few times to get it to work (I had to restart 3 times).

I use H2O, but for some reason there is no signal on the phone. The sim works when i put it into another unlocked phone, so I am guessing it is an issue with the APN config or something. Might just be a general issue with AT&T based carriers. Either way, after trying the phone out with a sim from GoSmart (which I am switching to, and runs on the T-Mobile network), I found that it worked perfectly, so the unlock is good :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] powerstroke6:
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

hi everyone im new to the fourm ive been scouring the threads and cant find what im lookin for . i have a sprint htc one has a bad esn ,i use h2o

for may phone service. so i need to unlock it as i have tried all the things above :confused: and still cant get it to work only thing i have not tried is goin back to the older build of software (currently on 1.31.651.2) do i have to go back to the 1.29 .... or what or is there an easier way to do this

i saw one post that says that the new build blocks gsm networks ,or doesnt detect them if this is true is there not a way to change that with some code or something any help would be great . hopfully this is in the right place tell me if i need to post somewhere else

thanks in advance
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] fida10:
I think it is possible to unlock on 1.31.651.2, however there have been more successes on 1.29. you should also check your radio firmware to see if it is the correct version (see my above post).

I don't know if it is impossible to unlock on the latest radio version. However, all of the people that I've seen this work for had the software version 1.29.651.10 and radio version 1.00.20.0315 at the time of unlocking.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Starcom826:
I've tried everything imaginable. Downgrading to a 1.29 ROM with the 0315 radio. Tried Viper's unlock app which said it appeared to be successful, as well as going through the terminal. Still get no service and emergency calls only. It doesn't seem to pick up any carriers, and in the Sense roms, Available Networks is greyed out so I can't search for any either. I know the SIM has service since I tried it in another friend's phone. Has anyone else encountered this?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] pspod:
Do this exactly except change the WCDMA to GSM only (if you're on T-Mobile or any other gsm network) Then create a new APN setting in mobile network for whatever carrier you are on, Then search for network operators, and chose you service. You should be good like that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jpatel56:
when you go out of the country do you need to change tha apn, lets say I wanted to use my phone with Vodafone in India, does that mean I'd put the sim card in and also have to change the apns or not and if so where can I find the appropriate apns.

Thanks guys
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] pspod:
Some should really come up with the a fix for the disconnects. Please? :(
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tdcokefiend:
I've read through the thread again and again, and I may have missed it (and for that I apologize), is there a way to relock? Because the network disconnects are not worth the hassle.

Whenever I'm using Sprint and have it set to CDMA/LTE, it constantly disconnects and reconnects in areas that I used to never have a signal problem in

before. So in theory, if I were able to "relock" my sim, I should stop having these problems.

Please correct me if wrong.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dagr8est1:
Try updating the baseband that should fix the issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tazdeviloo7:
I don't think you do. For me in Spain right now, it just works as long as I have the phone in GSM mode. I never had to mess with APN's and I don't have connection issues.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dulexetina:
Please report do u still have random disconnections after updating ur radio firmware,also did the sim unlock stick on new radio. Thank u :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Zeromega3:
What i did to get the at&t sim to work on my HTC is go to settings take out your sim, turn off mobile data, then put your sim in. After that quickly open up The mobile network settings go down to available gsm networks and do that search networks option and choose at&t. you have to do it before your phone can fully read the at&t sim card because once it reads it, it wont let you select, search networks. I had that same problem where T-mobile would work but at&t wouldn't so i got desperate and tried that and it works fine. I get 4g lte speeds and all of that. Though whenever I am in a building and lose my service I usually have to do that process all over again.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] elvisypi:
I don't live in the US and just got the phone. This unlock should be done every time I flash a ROM, right? Waht about activation. Does it need to be activated after flashing a ROM like the iphone? I obviously don't have the original SIM card

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] newbapotamous:
Real quick question from someone who hasn't used an HTC product in a while, let alone tried to GSM unlock a CDMA phone:

I called Sprint and they told me my phone was already SIM unlocked for travel. That part I got. But obviously, like everyone else, I want it to work on local GSM carriers (namely T-Mobile). Using this method, it is my understanding, that the UICC unlock code is no longer necessary. Is that right? Just checking before I root and attempt to SIM unlock my One. Thanks.
