[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
umadbro? In your theory too many HTC phones would have universal ROMs...

Frankly speaking, never. Differences lie in where you can't usually see, like touch panel controller chip, SD card support, baseband (Nexus S is strictly a GSM/HSPA phone, while E4G is CDMA/WiMAX), storage size and partition table, etc... No devices are the same or, say, near-identical enough to make ROMs universal (that is, with the exception of some "unbranded" phones that are shipped to different manufacturers just to make their shells, so hardware could be identical)

However, based on this similarity across all phones with S5PC110 CPU ("aries" board), ROM codes can be shared to a certain extent, and some ROMs can be easily ported from Nexus S 4G to E4G or vice versa.

Satisfied?

Thanks, guess I'll get to porting. I just thought that it might be possible because you can use samsung fasicanate roms on the samsung mesmerize.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
No, these are almost identical phones actually (look at the shape and model number). Mesmerize is just a re-carrier-branded Fascinate with (minor) baseband difference.

Hi,

I own a pre-owned One X.

I was playing Candy Crush, It hanged and then the bootloop started. It sometimes goes past AT&T logo and somtimes not. I flashed 2.20 Ruu then after. It worked well for 2 days. Now the bootloop has started again. I flashed 2.20 ruu but doesnt work this time. flashes successfully but results in bootloop. I havent tried flashing 3.18 Ruu.

S-On, Bootloader locked, but it was tampered before flashing the first Ruu. now its gone.

Hotboot 1.14.002

I Checked CID: Its CWS__001

Plz Help me..

Thanks a lot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You could try running the 3.18 RUU to see if that helps. If the problem persists after running RUUs though, the problem might be hardware related.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.John:
Hi Guys,

I've rooted my S3, and installed PhilZ Touch 5. Then I clear Data/Factory & Cache along with Delvik. I then proceed to install the custom rom from a zip.

It all installs fine, and says it has done so. But when it reboots, it gets stuck on the GalaxyS3 logo, with a little red Exclimatin mark in the top left corner and stays on that screen until I remove battery or reboot into download or recovery mode...

It seems I just can't load the newley installed roms. I've tried multipul, Archidroid, LiquidSmoot, pureLook HD, etc..

Has anyone run into this problem?

Its an Australian S3, so its the International i9300 btw.

Thanks in advance for any help! :D

Also, is there a way to completely wipe the phone and start from scratch, as I keep seeing ArchiDroid folders in the SD.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
To start completely new you can use mega wipe. It will delete anything but the ext sdcard, hence be careful.

Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.John:
Thanks, I'm thinking a MegaWipe would be the best bet, and then start fresh with a custom rom. I need to read more first so I don't screw up the phone..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.John:
just to update. the problem was solved with a mega wipe, i installed a new rom, and everything booted normally :D.

thanksssss
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perseidionix:
same problem i think except the red exclamation on the corner

Mr. John. i have the same problem now. You removed the battery after being stucked at the logo of samsung right? i wonder, were you able to go back to the home screen after removing the battery? :confused: thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
No, if the phone won't boot after installing a new rom then no amount of battery pulling is going to make it boot.

Flash the super wipe .zip from recovery, assuming you've followed the instructions from your rom chef correctly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perseidionix:
survived the stucked screen

I already escaped the stuck screen. thankfully i have a nandroid back up (and i can still access the recovery mode). i was able to recover my old phone status.

thank you! :o
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.John:
I was able to boot into recover & download mode, I was able to flash via odin any custom recovery and boot into it, I was able to wipe the cache/settings & delvik via recovery and then install any rom I liked, I could however not boot into any new/custom rom.

I then ran the MEGAWIPE.Zip in Philz, which I believe wiped some framework or something that was left behind stopping new roms to boot. I then installed a New rom, and it booted right away. No trouble what so ever...

I've seen a few posts like mine but I have not rooted or modded anything on this. I have updated to 4.3. Last night it was fully charged, I turned it off and slept. Today I was at 0%. Why?
[Nexus 10 General] duarian:
I had this same issue on 4.3, I always turn my tablet off at night when I'm not using it.

I left it at about 45% when I turned it off, turned it on the next day and it was at 15%. It also doesn't vibrate when you turn it off anymore so I have a farfetched suspicion that the tablet doesn't actually turn off anymore on 4.3.
[Nexus 10 General] styckx:
Could be an app that isn't working w/ 4.3 right.. Should be in your battery stats what is eating your battery

[Nexus 10 General] Varekai:
I'm on 4.2 and have this issue every once in a while. Happened just two nights ago actually. Put it away at around 85%, next day nothing. Had to leave it plugged in for around 15 minutes before the charging screen would even come on.
[Nexus 10 General] styckx:
I have never had this happen but it sounds strangely familiar to the Red Light Of Death on the Nexus 4. It wasn't common on it, but happened to enough people that if was definitely a real issue.

Essentially peoples devices would go dark for no apparent reason (off), wouldn't power on or anything and when they would plug in to charge it the device wouldn't turn on and the LED notification light would blink red. Most phones sprung to life after leaving it plugged in from 15m to an hour. Upon booting up they had 0% battery.

Sent from my Nexus 10
[Nexus 10 General] tcb4:
Similar issue here. Had it at something about 70% for two days and one night. When I went to use it I found that it had turned off due to low battery. Did the same routine again the last few days from 38% and I still have 25% left after browsing the web for an hour. Battery stats don't show anything, perhaps because it died and I had to charge it for awhile (until It got to around 50%). Idk what the issue is, but usually this tablet does really well on standby. Not too big of a deal, but this is like the 3rd time it's happened and I'm afraid that over time this could damage the battery.

It does sound like an app is eating the battery, but I would think it would have to be a system app if we're all having the issue. Media server is quite high on my list right now. (60% with 1d 9hrs on battery and 1 hour of screen time.)

I don't play locally stored content, so Idk what's up with this mediaserver thing. Does anyone know what media server does exactly? googleing it gave me a variety of answers, but local content streaming seemed to come up a lot. lol. Still seems unnecessarily high compared to my gs3's reading of only 6% used by the media server.

I restarted and will charge it again and see if it's still an issue.
[Nexus 10 General] realfncool:
sorry for the delay. last night i had it fully charged (took forever to get to 100%) and then unplugged and shut it off... today at 5pm i turned it on for the first time and it was safe to say everything seemed fine.. battery still at 100%

as far as the apps running goes... i always close em out when im done... i use advance task killer to keep it that way. (also use it on my evo 3d). so usually just the system stuff runs in background.. but regardless... so far so good... maybe it was just a hiccup? idk... ill keep this updated for the next maybe 3 nights and let everyone know

When you install a ROM, is your WiFi Mac address listed under About Tablet > Status?

the problem is that is wifi is just searching with no result my router wifi network is shown up to connect to it and i can't find any wifi network
[General Questions and Answers] soupmagnet:
Under Settings (in your custom ROM), go to "About Tablet" then tap on "Status". Check to see if your Mac Address is listed and doesn't say "Unknown". If it is listed, then you need to check your router settings and make sure it is configured to allow communication with your device. If it is not listed, then there may be a problem with the ROM. It can usually be fixed, but you'll need to do some searching first. Just search XDA for "missing WiFi mac address" and you'll find

Hey, Guys!

I jumped the ship a while ago from MS and switched to the Mac. I'm currently using PocketMac for my connectivity to my Blue Angel phone and it works fine, except for installing .exe files. Most of the time, it says a .cab file cannot be found within the .exe file. I have no trouble installing .cab files, but I can't always find programs as .cabs. Anyone have any ideas on extracting the .cab files from the .exe to install on pocket pc? I've tried also using Virtual PC, but two problems exist. First of all, the usb connectivity doesn't work well and most of the time, at all, and second, I have Tiger and Virtual PC doesn't work at all on Tiger.

Thanks for any ideas!

Shouldn't pose a problem with stock OTA though.

Have you S-OFF'ed previously
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
I have not s-offer before. I only did the ota to acheieve moonshine s-off. Now I have done the s-off and tried several radios and Roms with no luck. If I pull the SIM card I can get signal back for a minute or two before it goes back to no service
[HTC One S] khan.orak:
Maybe the S-OFF has got something to do with it.
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
Well the problem appeared after the ota and I s-offed later thinking that I would be able to fix the problem with s-off. I have a feeling its my hboot being too high (2.15) but was reading that downgrade after the ota causes brick for some.

did this problem ever get fixed?
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
Still haven't been able to figure it out. I have since tried ruu's and hboot downgrades and tried all radios and multiple roms. Broke down to calling Bell who told me to buy a new sim card. After using a strangers phone to activate the sim card because it my only phone, i got the sim activated but the phone kept dropping signal. I called back Bell and they said they will report it and then they gave me HTC's number. I called HTC and they asked me to go into recovery; having a custom recovery at the time made me have to admit that i had an unlocked bootloader. They suggested i send in the phone for repair. The guy on the phone told me to just relock the bootloader and flash the stock rom and they will still lock at it. He even remarked that they have fixed some phones with unlocked bootloaders and custom recovery's. I will report back when i hear from HTC about the repair estimate.
[HTC One S] Fredfly:
Got the estimate for the phone and it will cost 250$ to fix. They told me that the main board and the battery are broken. O have since denied the repair since I can't afford that. Now I am forced to use my old Samsung T746. Ps they did t care that I was s-offend.

Hey everybody, I was having this huge freezing/hang problem only during gaming. Check my other post to see the exact problems I was having and the solutions that I've tried that did not work for me. Problem got solved but I had to sacrifice a little speed but it doesn't bother me. Hope this solution works for you guys!

I'm running CM10.1.2 with KT747 Kernal

First I went into WiFi and unchecked everything

Then went into Developer options and checked "Disable HW overlays and Force GPU rendering" check both of those

Also in Developer options, look for Window animation scale, Transition animation scale, Animator duration scale and change all three to 1.5x or 2x, 2x works better but slows animation. But it does not affect gaming performance from my prospective.

I/O scheduler is on "ROW" I found this under performance or in kernal settings

As for Kernal settings, I just changed the I/O scheduler to "ROW" and CPU Governor to "Ondemand" and External SD read to "128"

That's it!

Good luck!

Update:

I just learned that if you use switchme app or anything that restarts your phone, certain settings in developers options gets changed. Therefore, it's a good idea to set the settings back after every reboot. Other than that, no freezes and hangs for two days, usually I get a freeze within 3 minutes of game play.

That would land the One+ in October, right there with the iPhone 5S.

Makes sense to me!

On a side note, LG G2 is being announced tomorrow. It's pretty cool looking, but we'll have to see if it implements the 800's native always listening capabilities from the start. I highly doubt it. OEMs might let Moto X be the test dummy and see if people like the always on feature.

[One (M7) General] sauprankul:
I think the spec madness has to stop.

Always listening should become a standard from now on. I read from Blinkfeed that the 800 has native support for it.

We also need better battery life. The G2, a next gen phone, has a 3000 mAh battery. We'll see if that'll be enough.

There is research being conducted to incorporate Silicon anodes in Li-ion batteries. I'm looking forward to that.

Another thing is heat dissipation. These things are more powerful than a laptop from the early 2000's. How can mfgs expect these to run at their full potential with no heat dissipation? Currently, the only solution provided is to throttle the CPU severely. The One has a metal backplate, which thankfully acts as a huge heatsink. However, it's not enough. Just 10 mins of 3D gameplay or browsing and the frame rate drops to rock bottom. Kinda defeats the purpose of having such a powerful processor.

Are any mfgs even trying to address the heat issues?

And believe it or not your precious phone (and mine) will be outdated in a matter of months. A new genreation of devices seems to release every 6 months or so!

[One (M7) General] FangorX:
Are you unlocked? With ElementalX kernel, you have custom thermal throttling that does not affect gaming performance. My phone never throttles and the battery stays below 50 degrees. HTC's throttling was way too agressive. You can play a 3D game for an hour with no slowdown. Plus, the kernel improves battery life.

I cant stand the stock kernel any more after trying others.

i was very skeptic first but after having the HTC One with true 1080p 400+ densiy, its the best thing to happen to smartphones, everything is just eye candy on it

switch to the iPhone 5 the previous Retina king and you will feel you are running in low res

---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

if you dont care about performance this much they do give you an option though

simply run it in powersaver mode and you wont face those temps again

battery is indeed at risk but the metal back plate quickly get rids of the heat instead of trapping it, so it actually the heatsink doing its job that's bothering you

the SOC and internals are built to handle much higher temps
