That's not easy. I am not sure, but it may work if you restart into download mode. Get the Android SDK and extract it somewhere convenient. Look for the folder platform-tools - it contains adb.

Open a command prompt in this folder, plug in your phone via USB and type

adb devices

to see if you're connected (all adb commands see here). If so, get your data with

adb pull /mnt/sdcard/*.* /your-target-folder/

If you only want specific files type

adb shell
cd /mnt/sdcard
ls
exit

This will list all files and folders. Use adb pull afterwards to copy the files you need to your pc. If you can't connect to your phone, install KIES and plug in your phone via USB in download mode. This should install the driver - you can uninstall KIES afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Lionelmessedup:
its not working.....as i do wat u tell nothing happens the promt doesnt display any device.....(attached a pic)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] XDA_Bam:
OK, I see. Does the screen display anything despite being broken? Are you sure the phone restarted into download mode? You shouldn't hear the startup sound when it does.

If you are sure that the device is in download mode, there could also be a driver problem. Do you still have KIES installed?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Lionelmessedup:
absolutely sure....the phones in download mode......i have kies.......and the phone displays downloading please dont switch off.......

nd i dnt hear no sound.........nd u do noe i dnt have usb debug on...right...??

also i downloaded the adt bundle.....and when i open adb.exe it automatically closes after 2-3 secs......

also...my apologies but i dnt quite understand by what u mean by "extacting it smwer......& opening a command promt in this folder".....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] XDA_Bam:
OK, so this is not the problem. USB debugging does have no effect if the phone is in download mode.

Your screenshot shows you did everything correctly - but there should be a device listed (some random number and a name). Please try to start the phone normally and connect it to your PC. Wait for 5 minutes, then start KIES and see if you can save your data with KIES directly. May be worth a try.

If this is not working, connect your phone in download mode again while KIES is running. See if KIES detects the phone. Then close KIES, uninstall it and see if your phone is now detected by adb. If that doesn't work, either, I'm out of ideas :|

I have always ran Chrome as my default browser on my OG Kindle Fire. However, I feel it is slowing the device down more and more, especially when multitasking.

I just installed Dolphin Mini but have only used it once or twice. What do you guys recommend for a lightweight browser on the KF??
[Kindle Fire General] tobiascuypers:
I use naked browser.
[Kindle Fire General] 404-Not Found:
First, rule I learned from Chrome: Chrome=RAM Hogger

Use Stock Browser, UC Browser, Dolphin Jetpack(Heavy, but Super Fast), and Opera &Mini.
[Kindle Fire General] jji7skyline:
Definitely not Chrome.

Stock browser or Dolphin Jetpack. Firefox too.
[Kindle Fire General] Ace42:
Chrome =! Light weight

AOSP Browser = Lightweight

Chrome is the buggiest app I've ever user. It was slow on my sensation, it's slow on my Nexus 4, my brother's N7, and definitely on my KF7.
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
Chrome is just bad. Its slow, eats RAM, crashes too much, and redraws too much when multitasking. I use the stock AOSP browser now.

Stock AOSP browser and Lightning+ browser.
[Kindle Fire General] Ace42:
Never ever ever use chrome on anything besides a PC or chrome book.

The new Dolphin has replaced Chrome as my favorite browser. Regular Dolphin, not mini. Give it a try.

I use Dolphin as my regular browser and it works great. Tried Lighting too, but I think Dolphin performs better.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fitseries3:
my top speaker stopped working on my 2 month old htc one and now its useless for phone calls.

1. can this be repaired/replaced?

2. go to sprint or a phone shop?

3. possible cause? prevention?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohaz55:
You need to make a warranty claim for this with whoever you got the phone from
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsbeertimenow:
1. This could be repaired, however if you are under warranty just return for a fixed device.

2. You'll have to ship it to your closest authorized HTC repair center, taking it in will only result in them telling you to do so.

3. There are multiple causes and yet no prevention, I mean you could have gotten water in there or played the phone speakers too loud with freq's that were aggressive for too long but in all reality there are a poop tonne of returns on HTC one's because these things are being mass produced and problems are to arise.

Ship this mother back for warranty and get it fixed, I've been there with a nexus, it does take a while, 2 - 4 weeks but in most cases you get your phone back with your data wiped and everything as good as new but it's a lot better than paying some "hack" to try and fix it or you yourself fixing it and voiding the piss out of your warranty.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hunt3r.j2:
You can replace it. Get Sprint/HTC to repair this phone unless you want to risk a broken phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fitseries3:
i got it from sprint and they are telling me since i dont pay for the protection plan my phone has no warranty even though i bought it brand new from them.

i use my phone to run my business off of so i cant be without it for any extended period of time.

i guess i'll head to the local sprint repair center and see if i can get them to fix it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohaz55:
I don't know what sprint say but there should be a 12 month warranty on the phone.... it's a hardware failure and should be fixed or replaced free of charge

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] chakra:
Q teck 1.11 or qteck 1.12

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] willumpie82:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
It doesn't matter whether it's Qtek, iMate, Vodafone or whoever. AFAIK the differences are in the Extended_ROM dir only (ok, they'll put their boot logo in it, but that's it).

So I sit and wait for 1.12 in German language - I don't care for the manufacturer.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] justcallmejohan:
Went from NoWizAOSPMod, which is deodexed, to the 4.3 Beta build of SlimRoms, which is odexed. Did a Factory Reset in TWRP, and after boot kept saying "setup wizard has stopped/crashed", along with other application crashes ex: "Picasa Uploader has crashed". Feel like I definitely missed a step, just not sure where?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
This isn't a matter of odexed vs. deodexed. This is a matter of TWiz-base to AOSP-base, most likely. Now slow down, what exactly was your procedure to go from NoWiz to Slim? Where exactly in that procedure did the factory reset come in?

If all you did in between ROMs was factory reset (i.e. NoWiz->Factory Reset->Slim)...then that was your problem. All factory reset does is clear /data and /cache but not system or /dalvik. Further, unlike what TeamWin says on their website....I find that TWRP does not do complete flashes, and therefore does in fact need 2-3x wipe operations as anything less usually means ROM buginess in ROMs that are otherwise stable.

I suspect an incomplete wipe is where your issue stems from, as I've been running the SlimBean 4.3 alpha and beta builds myself without a hitch.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] justcallmejohan:
Made a backup with helium on NoWiz. Boot into TWRP. Wipe-->FactoryReset 3x --> Dalvik Cache 3x

Installed the Odexed Beta SlimRom

Rebooted, and setup wizard kept giving me a force close box
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Yup. Incomplete wipe more likely than not.

Zero out: /system, /data, /cache, /dalvik....because the one thing that needs wiped thoroughly is the one thing you're not wiping, which is /system.

Factory reset does just that...it is to take a ROM back to the (factory) installed ROM default. It ain't there to purge the ROM chip in preparation to accept a new OS load.

I'm a network admin who wants to start developing windows apps. I have a Masters in IT, but no coding experience. I had to take a C class, but didn't understand it. Should I learn VB or C#? I understand C# is superior, but I'm new and don't understand the concepts. I know they both use .net and I'm wondering if VB would be a good way to start or a waste of time? Thanks
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
First of all, if you remember *anything* from C, C# will be more familiar.

Second, in terms of an employable skill in the job market, C# is more valuable; not only is it in greater demand in general, it's also closer to both C++ and Java, both of which are in very high demand.

Third, while VB.NET is a perfectly reasonable modern language with plenty of nice features, that modernization + same anachonisms it has held onto has led to it reaching a state that I consider no easier to learn than C#, so between the two of them I'd certainly recommend C#.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootfan:
I can not say that I have personally done a lot of vb development, but based upon what I have seen of it, I would certainly recommend c#. C# is quite similar to other powerful languages such as c++ and Java, so after developing a solid understanding of c#, getting familiar with these other languages will be a breeze. It provides the best integration with the .net framework, and has simple and easy to understand syntax. I think that c# is more of a replacement for VB than anything anyways, and as such, learning c# is the best way to go:laugh:

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elyl:
Functionally, there's no difference between C# and VB.NET. Anything you can do in C# you can also do in VB.NET. The syntax of VB is much easier, and is overall more easily picked up, but C# is more common, and more useful in the industry.

If you look at code samples a lot, and use C#<>VB.ET converters, you can pick up the syntax of both of them, so even if you found a code sample in VB you'd be able to work out how to code it in C# easily.

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
VB.NET and C# are virtually identical in capability (the both compile to MSIL that is processed by , so in terms of what you can do with them, they are equally useful. The main differences are how easily you can do certain things. With that said, though, C# (as a "C-like" language much like the very widely used C++ and Java languages) is more professionally useful that VB.NET (which is a "BASIC-like" language, a language family that is dying out in the professional world).
