[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -SmOgER:
Ok, like u know I had this issue. Now I randomly managed to fix it when I needed adb drivers for my new toy (Sanei tablet for 40$ lol)

The mistake I was making is that I was trying to install the drivers while device was in fastboot, but apparently you can get away with casual "My HTC" drivers which can be installed when DHD is booted into Android. It looks likethe phone is not being detected from bootloader (it doesn't like any of the drivers I had tried), but I can fully use ADB while it's in recovery or starting/trying to boot OS, so it should be enough for rooting/unlocking bootloader.

I remember with HTC Wildfire I had drivers package with seperate drivers for Android and fastboot, so I had to install different driver after rebooting to fastboot, but with these new drivers and win8 it doesn't work out this way.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
I've been reading different things everywhere about this and I still can't find a solution. I also had this issue on my S3 with a custom ROM on there.

I just got the Nexus 4 and I flashed PA3.96 on it, great rom. Everything works fine. I just am unable to send or receive MMS with wifi on. Once I turn it off, it's fine.

I've tried both stock and GoSMS and neither can download or send out MMS.

Can someone direct me to the solution for this? I'm on T-Mobile and the APN settings are correct, checked it with a stock S3 and they're the same.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
Just to be clear, are you trying to send MMS over wifi or you just cant send them while wifi is enabled?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlbertoWayfarer:
edit: didn't see you already mentioned the carrier.

T-Mobile and Verizon usually don't send MMS via the Wi-Fi Network, you must be on 3G (in my experience)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
He specifies tmobile in the post and the title.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlbertoWayfarer:
edited.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
I'm just trying to send a MMS anyway, my previous phone(s) on tmo, with wifi enabled, would be able to send the mms regardless. But I would see the wifi signal still on, and then also the 3G symbol come up because it can't send it over wifi, but it would know when to switch to 3G/4G.

If that makes sense.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
I believe I understand. When you are on wifi, even with 3/4G coverage your Texts do not send? Mine work just fine on Tmobile. What app are you using to try and send your text message? Or is it only ones that have an image in them?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
Not quite, so I keep my wifi on as much as I can (connected to networks) and I also never turn my data off (3G/4G). With my S3, stock, I can have my wifi on (connected) and my 3G/4G on, and be able to send/receive MMS like normal.

With my Nexus, with my wifi and data on, I'm unable to do either. I have to turn off my wifi to be able to send/receive MMS. Texting is fine either way.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knitler:
Check your APN settings. They should be:

Name: T-mobile US

APN: epc.tmobile.com

MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

MCC: 310

MNC: 260

APN type: default,supl,admin,mms,hipri

APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

Everything else should say: "Not Set", or "None"

Save those settings and then reboot your phone to test
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
I'm pretty sure mine is set exactly like that, other than the APN type, there are a few I don't have on mine. I'll test and let you know.

Seems to be working now, adding those to the APN type made it work. Now just an issue with GoSMS, but that's a different story.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
That's interesting..the only thing I added was admin and hipri under APN type, and it seems to be working now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpirog:
So, this was working fine until today, I wanted to try out one of the hybrid LTE modems. MMS is still working, but I can't send/receive with wifi on again. Practically the same settings as the epc APN other than the different LTE strings.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Google Chromecast] Linuxslate:
I'd like to start a thread for news/rumors of more officially supported services.

[Google Chromecast] firesoul453:
well hulu and pandora is confirmed, but the main problem right now is the SDK isn't complete (they have a preview one out though).

Once the SDK is done we will start seeing a lot of content I bet.

I am looking forward to bitcasa support. That will be awesome.
[Google Chromecast] greencat2:
I hope so - I think this is the first step of moving away from Broadcast TV for TV entertainment. This is the revolution that Apple had planned to do but didn't. When people do reviews of the Cast I think they miss the largest point. Controlling the content using an interface we all love (phone or tablet) is a giant step forward. Using the built in smart features of a TV or DVD to search for a YouTube video is a terrible experience. You need a link to find most things and those are shared in communication links in your phone.
[Google Chromecast] hmose:
There is still no "cast" button on Pandora. Did you mean it is confirmed that they are working on it?
[Google Chromecast] firesoul453:
Ya i thought that is what you were talking about, what else the chromecast will be able to do. Its confirmed it will be able to use hulu and pandora should be comming kinda soon. And HBO, Vimeo, Redbox Instant, Vevo (?), Devour (?), Blip (?) (maybe these are britsh or something, i've never heard of them), have all mentioned they are planning on it.

plus soon we get the official sdk and we will get 100s of apps I bet
[Google Chromecast] bozzykid:
Hulu said they were interested in adding it some day. I wouldn't be expecting it anytime soon. The only real partner besides Netflix announced at launch was Pandora. My guess is Pandora will release an update about the same time the final SDK is released. Google is probably working with Pandora as sort of a beta test of the SDK.

Does anyone know any program that can record all calls in Defy with CM10.2 (Android 4.3) version?

There were no any problems with using CallRecord program in 10.1 (Android 4.2) version. Also Sanity worked well.

Now all these programs refuse to record the calls (tried all settings). What has been changed so significant that now callrecording is not working?

Hi everyone I've tried all alternative lockscreen apps on the market but they all share the same annoying bug : if I unlock sliding on a shortcut e. g. whatsapp. once I press back to quit the app and (logically) going to my home screen, it goes back to the app that locks my phone and locks it again. this is not really functional. all I was looking for was a way to have different wallpapers for both home screen and lockscreen. tired of having the same one for both. suggestions?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rsromano:
I have flashed many Roms over the last year, Jedi Roms, Infamous Roms, Stock, and most recently Rushing's Shadow Rom. I have stuck to only Touchwiz based Roms since I need WiFi Calling to use my cell phone in my apartment.

The one thing I noticed every time I flashed is that the phone would get significantly slower after I rebooted the phone the first time after I installed a bunch of apps. (Not after the first one I do after the phone has resynch'ed contacts and stuff from google) Additionally, after a couple months the phone would get so slow that I would reflash a new Rom (generally, by this time a new version, but if a new version is not available, I usually switch Roms)

The apps I usually download include:

Google - YouTube, Maps

T-Mobile -Visual Voicemail

Media - Pulse, BeyondPod, a music player

Root stuff - Titanium, Rom toolbox, ES file explorer, etc.

Popular apps - Facebook, twitter, ebay, bank of america, etc.

Are any of these apps known to degrade the performance of your phone over time? Is there a way to diagnose which of these apps are running and when?

A second theory I have is that something on my SD card is either corrupt or not getting wiped properly. Then, these corrupt sectors/files cause performance to decrease over time? Has anybody heard of anything like this? Are there any utilities out there to look for corrupt file. Can anyone reccomend a SD cleaning app that might help if this is the case?

A third theory is that these customized Roms aren't as stable as they are thought to be. I don't believe this is the case since the developers on this forum are much smarter than me, and thoroughly test their roms. Additionally, I have seen this happen with Stock rooted also, which also discounts this theory.

Most of this is spit-balling so that people can see my symptoms (if you had similar symptoms, please share troubleshooting steps and resolution) as well as maybe trigger an idea in someone that has an easy fix to my issue. I like this phone a lot and I don't want to buy a new phone just to avoid these issues. I think this phone is still capable of handling the workload of a 2013 smartphone.

Please let me know any tests/logs that would help you help me solve this problem.

SuperSU works fine and grants permission to Root Explorer which also works fine.

But 'getprop: permission denied' is shown in front of most of the headings in 'Phone information' tab in MTK Droid Tools.

I have granted permission to ADB Shell in SuperSU.

If I manually open adb shell I get $ prompt and then I type su to get # prompt.

I want to install eternity project from my bootloader unlocked and rooted phone with Cwm. It has the stock kernel and running v20a does it harm my device or brick it? Have some experience with Galaxy Note ICS brick bug.

EDIT: No, it doesn't.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] penguin449:
Eternity Project what? The Rom or Kernel? If the Kernel is for a STOCK based ROM then by all means go ahead and flash it, it shouldn't brick your phone at all! If anything it may cause a bootloop but i very much doubt that.

However if you are after flashing the Eternity Project ROM (4.3) Then you will need to back up first and then carry out a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) And then flash the Rom, I believe it has a kernel with it and it should boot, however if not check the FAQ on the Rom thread!

Happy Flashing/Overclocking!

I use the sports calendar from Google Calendar, and while the schedules shows the right date and time on my PC, every event shows on my phone one day and 3 hours before the right time.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KooolaNL:
Well as the title says

I first had a stock s2 and the memory usage would always be 700+

In the task manager and it would close 28 apps and go down but always after doing stuff its back to 700+

Now i rooted the phone and deleted all apps i did not use like google+ chaton and all the stock samsung stuff thinking it would improve but it wont

Does anyone have any clue either how to stop these 28 things from running or all the time or see wat they actually are

Any help or tips appreciated

Gr.

Boss
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
The short version re: Android & memory is - as Android is a Linux 'variant', and Linux variants don't like 'free memory', Android will reserve as much free memory as possible in order to make it immediately available when required (so there's no killing some processes in order to run other processes for example), it will also keep memory in reserve for apps you've recently closed/apps that are used a lot even after you close them in order to start them more quickly/get them up to speed when you do want to use them

Constantly manually 'freeing up' memory will actually make your phone less responsive.

In other words, let Android do its thing. People on here/elsewhere obsess about free memory because they're used to Windoze & even other phones/OS's.

This is the 'plain language' explanation, if you want the technicals, they're easily found online.

Edit - This is also a good explanation of how/why it works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KooolaNL:
Thanks wasnt aware of the ram thing like this bit it sounds logic

But why are there 28things running ?

Makes nu sense to me :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Depends what those 28 process are.

With all operating systems, there's a lot of system processes running at any given time, Android is no exception to this.

You should never need to 'free up memory', and the only time you should need to manually close an app (with a task killer or similar) is if it's badly coded & doesn't exit 'gracefully' (99% of apps do these days).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KooolaNL:
What is a program u can advice me to use to check what is running (free app) preffered

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amach:
Internal config option

You don't need any app to see what is running; go to Settings / Applications and choose "Running" tab. It will show you the processes and services that are currently in use. Depending on the version of your Android, you will have an additional option already visible at bottom or available via menu: "show cache processes"; these are the processes for which Android reserved some memory in order to quickly re-execute them (like MistahBungle explained above.

Hey Guys, just a quick one from me here, you may have found this Tutorial Loafing around on various places at xda but i may as well share it with you and make it device specific! ​

This doesn't add or change anything, just replaces stock lockscreen (Which i love) With the JB AOSP one (Which i also love)

Open your chosen file explorer and gain root permissions/give it root access or whatever you would like to call it​

Now navigate to /system/Apps​

Scroll a little till you find the Lockscreen3.apk (Well mine was called that)​

Long press or select or whatever to give you the ability to rename it​

Now change the file extension to Lockscreen3.apk.bak obviously not in red but you need to add that bit​

Now reboot

​

NOTICE:

To return to stock, change the file name back to .apk

Upon boot you will have an AOSP jb Lockscreen Which would look similar to this one:​
