[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
It's a "bug" of the stock rom, and it's also in the ARHD.

For example, i'm on Viper, and i can use the black statusbar, so i don't have this bug ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ribow:
so there is no way to fix it?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
You can try to theme the statusbar to dark and see.

In ViperOne, with a black statusbar, there isn't the issue.

I became so intrigued with the ongoing Android 4.3 issues that I actually updated my SDK to take a close look at what 4.3 was up to:

As soon as I launched my Nexus 7 Android 4.3 (JWR66V) AVD, it locked up!

I have used 4.1, 4.0 and 2.x and have never seen this happen in my Emulator.

Launched AVD again, and this time the Launcher crashed when I tried to get into the app drawer:

About screen:

Going to leave it running for a while...
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
My Nexus 7 Emulator running Android 4.3 JRW66V locked up this morning (less than 24 hours). I was simply navigating screens to see what apps were installed by default, and what options were available for some settings, and when I returned to the Home screen, it locked up.

I had to "kill -9" it's process id to exit :(

I am going to run a Android 4.1.2 AVD next to it now, to highlight how much more stable that is.

The Linux PC the Android Emulator is running on is fine: over 396 days of System Uptime (yes, it's been over a year since I rebooted this machine), and fairly heavy use too.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
You don't show your AVD definition. There are some known restrictions, like set your memory size to 512.
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
Thanks for the info!

The default heap size was not big enough. Increasing it fixed the Launcher issue:
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
I'm seeing some errors in the logcat, that kinda look serious:
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Looks like application warnings as opposed to error. A whole stack trace only refers to one event. Exciting a process without issuing a specific close is just poor practice. Likewise doing too much on a main thread is poor practice.
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
The 2nd looks like it may cause a resource leak. I see multiple instances of that stack trace.

Can Finalization (and proper Garbage Collection) occur if there are still references to the file handle, since it is not being explicitly closed?
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:

Another possible resource leak:

This one looks like "IBackupAgent" (an intrinsic Android app? ) not closing a file descriptor (Parcel class? )
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
And another, this one from Google Messaging Services (gms) ?
[Nexus 7 General] Nate2:
2 more... This is from Google Maps/Navigation:

And this is from the Contacts editor:

We also see a cursor being finalized without a prior close().

And what are those "screenshot failure" messages? I am not taking any screenshots using the Android emulator.

Angry Birds seems to run fine on the emulator without generating any error messages in the logcat.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] supercho:
Hey folks,

I just lost a phone (again) and that was my back up, so I have the Galaxy S 4G I bought used a long time ago and apparently the IMEI is blocked and has the small "x" where the signal bars used to be.

I already tried unlocking it doing both method of the "AROMA Edition" from the S 4G section, and still the same. The unlock code doesn't seem to work. Are there any other methods of unlocking the IMEI?

I'm running team acid's ICS 4.0.4

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
1st: This is a developer forums. Next time use the Q&A forums.

2nd: What you are asking is illegal in most countries, and against XDA rules.

3rd: To answer your question, if the thread didn't get deleted before you can

see the answer, you have two options (Both are illegal, since it involves tampering with IMEI number).

Option 1: Use NS Pro, Z3X tool box..etc! to change your IMEI number. Expensive

and it is over $100 to buy the box and cables.

Option 2: Erase your IMEI number and make it all Zero's 0, your phone will work,

and you will have signal, but most likely you will have 3g or weak data or no 4g at all. To do this, first backup your NV just in case you want to return to original. Read what is in the spoiler button below..

==========================

-=For educational Purposes Only=-

==========================

I didn't try this, but other users tried this on other galaxy phones and worked.

Make sure you are using stock rom (heimdall or odin). Using the dialer:

input: *#197328640# then go to COMMON, NV REBUILD (you can do backup here)

Choose Erase three partitions (Not a typo) then reboot.

if the above didn't work, just erase the NV_Data.bin manually using root explorer

and reboot.

Another option would be using QPST/QXDM (qualcomm tools). Search...

BACKUP FIRST..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] supercho:
Thanks for your inputs and secrets!! I didn't want to be in this situation, I just bought the wrong phone.

I am aware this was illegal (after I bought the used phone) but not against the XDA rules, since I thought it was the same as carrier unlocking.

I will try.....thanks!

BTW: What is NV?

Can I do option 2 with any version installed or does it have to be the factory reset version?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
NV: I believe it is a nonvolatile memory (similar to the bios memory for PC)

The files are stored in a special partition, usually not touched by flashing custom

roms.

Since the process of dealing with this have high risk (bricking your phone, hence I don't want to be responsible for anything) I suggest you to search the forums or use google.

For option 2: you have to be on stock based firmware (gingerbread, rooted is ok) as long as you have the original Touchwiz dialer. AOSP roms can't handle MMI codes except maybe the famous *#06# to show the imei number.

At this point, you are on your own. Good luck. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] supercho:
Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] supercho:
One last thing, while doing option 2, should my activated T-Mo sim card be inserted in the phone the whole time?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Rebel_X:
The process wouldn't hurt the SIM card. Whether it is there or not same thing.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Just want to clear this up for future readers, carrier unlocking is not the same as getting the IMEI number. The carrier unlock code can be gotten from T-Mobile directly and you can unlock the phone that way.

Changing your IMEI is not condoned or endorsed by any carrier. It's possible on the Galaxy S line of phones (we had someone who claimed to be able to on this forum before).
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] chunners:
Hi guys,

I am new to all this upgrading and this evening I bravely tried to upgrade my new XDA 2i to the Asian 2003 SE upgrade but then that failed mid way.

I then tried to install the Sin merged version:

see http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=16916

but then that failed too.

Now it will not start, it displayed USB v1.01, and I have tried other remedies: (see http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=18122&highlight=xda+2i) but they have all failed.

It seems I should not have tried to upgrade because these versions of WM2003 are not for XDA 2i right?

I would now like to restore my old ROM but I don't know where to get it :(

Can anybody please help?

Any advice would be most gratefully followed!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fstbusa:
Just curious why someone chooses one recovery vs another. I like twrp for the touch interface and simple layout. Cwm feels outdated to me.

What recovery do you run and why?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] oneandroidnut:
I agree 100%
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Aria807:
TWRP because easier to use + touch screen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] :
Pretty much a die-hard CWM fan. TWRP does a little too much for me as far as recoveries go-- CWM (touch or not) has always felt simpler to use, and made everything a quick hop in and out. Not that I dislike TWRP, the keyboard feature is certainly nice.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] hyperxguy:
I started out with CWM (~ 2 years ago). I tried to stick with it for as long as I could.

Until one day TWRP added support for externalSD/OTG ... I have TWRP on all my devices now.

I have all my backups ROMfiles on externalSD/OTG, I can wipe the internalSD clean when changing ROMs.

(one time I formatted the internalSD with all the ROMfiles on it, haha).
[Android Apps and Games] BackHandLegend:
I made a similar thread like this one long ago, I've since found a launcher as a base for tweaking. I found it a long time ago and lost the source and haven't gotten around to actually posting this thread.

[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] :
Hello

I don't see this tips for the ativ s and i want share it ... for me it's great... because my phone in canada ( the lte model t899 ) and all others phone always connect to the 1900 mhz band in my area... ( the 850 mhz is available but network setting prefer 1900 mhz )

When i am connected the 850 mhz band i get great signal 3 bar ( i don't want talk db ) - vs 1 bar on 1900 ...

For this reason i like to switch to 850 mhz only... this feature miss me on phone i can't select the band...

This solution is great in some area in usa too... where tmobile is present by exemple... for people who want force to use the 1900 mhz band instead the 1700 aws band... ( some people say you get better speed on 1900 mhz where 1900 mhz is avaible for tmobile )

Type

##634#

You go to diagnostic mode

*#0011#

You see the signal in DB here ;p

Press on the screen the back ... then 1.... you are in the umts main menu...

Go to 1 => 8 => 7 => 2 =>

Select 1 for automatic (default setting)...

2 for your own umts/hspa/wcdma band and to force in 3g ... i choose 850 mhz here for me ;p you can choose wcdma all to force your samsung on 3G only !

3 for gsm ...

4 for lte ...

to revert in default setting... just put in automatic...

the setting is not erased when you reboot your phone...

Don't go to any others menu if you don't have any idea what is this !

I don't take any responsability if you fxxx your phone !

For sure this tips work for the international version too

Enjoy and have a nice day !

( PS : if you have or go from a samsung s3/s4 or others samsung you see this menu in many others phone and there are some tweaks on this phone you can unlock for free... my phone is unlocked... i can't test if via this menu you can unlock the phone for free )

[Google Chromecast] jsdecker10:
I was just wondering if anyone could give everyone(myself included) some tips/pointers/recommendations and maybe your own templates that you've used or would use for these extra Dev options in my picture I've included...If anyone can help with all of the options (Label #1) and/or just the bottom set of options (Label #2) that'd be awesome!! The bottom set(#2) is really making me curious about being able to stream local videos from our PC without any extra help from 3rd party sources/plugins/python-related sources. If you can contribute to this, please feel free! Thanks!
[Google Chromecast] jsdecker10:
Thank you for taking the time to type up all of this valuable info...it works great! Most of my videos are wide screen 720p format. My only gripe so far is that unless I download a video that's in full screen format(not letter-box), it puts it at the top of the screen with a black bar at the bottom of the screen. This can be remedied by just sending a full screen formatted video to the chromecast. It works this way consistent with every single 720p widescreen video I've got. Do you think that if I tried a 1080p video, that it would take up the whole screen? Or at least have the black bar on both the top and bottom of the screen? Just seeing the black bar at the bottom is just quite an annoyance more than anything...I've looked around in my settings on my tv(Sony 51") and can't find anything that'll either make the video take up the entire screen or have the black bars on both the top and bottom of the videos...grrrr
[Google Chromecast] dallastx:
Have you tried a divx file just to see what happens? "like a downloaded movie" Not a TV show as they are always encoded in mp4 which is streamable by chrome ext default.
[Google Chromecast] GreenDroidX:
This will stream all video at Native resolution, it will def do 1080p, your network won't have too much problem with it. As for file format this is from Google:

You can convert stuff pretty fast using MkvToMp4_0.223 it is free. (Note: not all MKV or other files required conversion, some MKV sound doesn't work, this program will fix that)

Also I made an improvement to the HTML code that will let you fast forward. In the index.html (you can also rename it anything, I rename my to cast.html so I can view all the file in the HTML folder, including the movie file, so I can just copy the URL and just type in the IP address)

For the fast forward thing:

1) open the index.htm (you can open it just using notepad, nothing fancy)

2) search for <video id="video" src="" autoplay="autoplay"></video>

3) you will see 2 instants of that code, just replace it with: <video id="video" src="" autoplay="autoplay" controls></video>

This will put a control bar underneath the video screen on your computer so you can fast forward (this only work ONCE before you cast it to your TV). You may have to clear the browser cache before this show up

Also sometime the video will not play in the browser windows, but if you cast it to the TV anyway it sometime take up to 30 secs to 45 secs then it will play. This especially true if you stream a video from an online source.
[Google Chromecast] rajnallan:
I did exactly as described above using winodws 8.The video plays locally , but when click on chromecast it goes to the TV and I get a blank screen. I get the following error while trying to cast the video. Can you please help me resolve this ...Thanks

Error:

{"eventSequenceId":1,"activityId":"9jpopqye07td","state":2,"contentId":"http://localhost/Burfi.mp4","title":"http://localhost/Burfi.mp4","imageUrl":null,"timeProgress":true,"position":5.507666,"duration":0,"volume":0.8,"muted":false,"contentInfo":null,"mediaTracks":[],"error":null,"hasPause":true}

Thanks once again
[Google Chromecast] GreenDroidX:
your thing is the localhost you need to translate that to your local ip address (you can probably find that in the network center of windows 8, I am still refusing to upgrade to windows 8, so I am on win 7) or simply access your router

For example mine local IP address is 192.168.1.153, to get the video to play you need to put this as your url

http://localhost/Burfi.mp4 -> http://192.168.1.153/Burfi.mp4 (so this way when the URL go to chromecast it know what the heck localhost is)

Oh by the way, that msg is always there. It is sort of a debug msg left in by the original coder, I am guessing it was the Google Team that did it.
[Google Chromecast] rajnallan:
Thanks for your response. I did try the url as you suggested. But the video plays on the computer. But when I try to cast in to TV I get a blank screen on TV. Waited for more than two minutes. May be somewhere I am doing something wrong.

Just to add when I checked on the chromecast icon in Chrome browser it shows the movie as running on chromecast but nothing on TV.
[Google Chromecast] GreenDroidX:
Strange, well first use another computer with chrome that is on the same network. Try to enter that url into the browser, if that play then the file could be seen. If not then you have a network problem.

Second try to enter a url of a video that is already online. Like the http://media.w3.org/2010/05/sintel/trailer.mp4 see if that will cast. Just to see if chromecast have a problem
[Google Chromecast] rajnallan:
I did try the url of a video http://media.w3.org/2010/05/sintel/trailer.mp4 and it works. Chromecast is definitely OK. I can see the movie with the url like the one specified by you play on the computer but when I cast it I see the message on the chromecast icon on the chrome browser showing the movie is running but the tv which switches to the Chromecast hdmi port shows blank on the TV. May be I will try on my daughter's computer...
[Google Chromecast] GreenDroidX:
Also firewall can be a problem too good luck. Also try different files
[Google Chromecast] jasenko:
I get the same error message but the video plays fine. I guess he's got a different problem. I noticed that you need to manually stop the current video in the browser window so chromecast goes to "ready to cast" screen before you can start a new video.
