[Motorola Droid 3] noleng:
no problem. im glad it helped.

I have been installing all the steeldroid roms, and a few like minimoto, and some jb ones.. just to see what works and what doesnt.

post your results once you do the same. im interested to know your feedback

---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 AM ----------

just noticed your response.. after i posted my last message. anyway

those also did not work on my old xt860 either.

what did work was minimoto (the xt860 version), aswell as a couple of the steeldroids (5.5, and 5.6 oc, and 5.0)

and dont worry if you dont get any data, or cell service to start. just get the rom to boot up proper, and then i can help you with your apn settings as well as getting your wireless radio to work.

first things first.. to try to get a working rom.. cuz my needs were the same as yours. and i got them all working except the ones you already tried.

i am chatr wireless which is also gsm/umts
[Motorola Droid 3] satani:
well, after updating the recovery, i managed to find the maverick 4.5 rom over on droidforums and installed that, as it came shipped with mav 4.0 and seemed ok,

Calling seems to work now, except the phone still sometimes tells "invalid sim card" and no signal, but is capable of calling. strange ? Sometimes, a switch between global and umts/gsm zone and also a switch gsm only and both manages to get a signal. (vodafone.de using) i have not tried further on data, but the menu is accessible.

so far, for me the maverick 4.5 ist the most stable one.

a smal question besides: how can i find out, if the phone has a simlock on? (i tried an o2-sim, which was completely not detected (and said to be not unlocked for this network). and if it's locked, how can i unlock?

update: after trying around today, i found out: (maverick 4.5)

apn-setting can be added, but are not stored/saved. so there is no possiblity of creating an apn.

the "invalid sim card" message is still, BUT the calling works (the "phono"-app does not show the own number, but shows signal and provider)

Hello follow S3 users,

I have a GT-I9300 with original samsung Android Version 4.1.2 and I have been looking for a method to root this device from either OSX or Linux which are to only two OS i have reasonable access to.

My understanding from forum trawling is that i need to use odin. But I have also seen the "unified toolkit" however these options both seem to be windows based :'(

Have I missed a important post somewhere ?.

I don't use my friends windows machine and uninstall the usb drivers for their (different phones) and install mine muck around with rooting (hopefully successful) and removed my usb drivers and reinstall theirs. I just hoping there is a *nix solution.

Thank you in advance.

Hi guys, I didn't find a better title for the thread (i'm italian, so sorry in advance for my bad english)

I was (desperately) looking for something like this: (an image explicates it better)

For example I move the lock down to access the music, left to access Internet, right to unlock, exc. Is there any app or mod which allows me to do it on the nexus 4? I don't like stock lockscreen at all

Thanks in advance :D
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
If you have a custom ROM, it's probably in the settings->security->lock screen->slider targets

Not sure if there's an app for it.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] grgana:
Cyanogen mod, aokp..Pac..and other roms have it if you have root accses on your phone maybe you could extract only lockscreen app.. From any of those roms and replace in sistem app folder in root manager..or download widget locker or similar app from playstore

Does Paranoid Android have this feature?

Hi!

I'd like to share with you my next app. It's Simple Flashlight. It has an original look. You can choose image which has to appear when you turn on the flashlight or you can disable the image and the app will have the black screen while flashlight is turned on/off. This app allows you to choose if the flashlight should be turned on when you minimalize the app, or turned on/off when you open the app. Moreover, you can control flashlight by tap or volume up/down keys.

I know that this app may not work with some devices (older samsung and LG phones), because of different ways of turning on the flashlight. I am working on it, and in next updates it will work with more devices.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankyDoodle:
Hello guys!

I am having problems with my camera, On the stock ROM it gave the "Camera failed" error I flashed the last CM10.1 nightly and it gave the equal "Can't connect to camera" message. (Front cam has the same error)

What I have done so far is:

Tried other camera apps. Nothing

Tested the camera in my half-dead S3 and it worked there

Placed a new cam in the phone, no life.

Factory reset, etc. No life.

I am thinking of a board issue but it might as well be a weird software problem.

Also, warranty is gone so don't tell me to send it there.

I've included a logcat if that is of any help.

[HTC Desire S] Marcoevich:
Hi all,

I want to create a nandroid backup from my desire S. I do this with latest 4EXT recovery Touch and Rom Manager.

During the backup process I get: "Can't mount system/lib/! Skipping system/lib/ in this backup"

What does this mean exactly? I thought system/lib/ was part of the ROM. Will my backup work if I restore it without the system/lib/ in it?

My ROM is SabsaPrime 15.0

Thank you very much in advance :)
[HTC Desire S] teadrinker:
Sabsa prime, like most custom roms, doesn't use the /system/lib partition, so your backup should work fine without it.
[HTC Desire S] Marcoevich:
Thx m8, that's good to know! :)
[HTC Desire S] Aquous:
You are probably on hboot [06].98 which does not implement a seperate /system/lib partition. Nothing to worry about :)
[HTC Desire S] paulie-uk:
If you want to fix the error and are on hboot 2.00.x00x / 7.00.x00x, open the 4ext recovery app, settings, recovery tab, scroll down, tick both backup and format system/lib, then close the app, reboot to recovery, nandroid backup, format system, nandroid restore.

I also encountered it and it bugged me, hence I did as I described. It took me a long time to find the option because I expected to have it in recovery somewhere, but it seems only to be in the app.

I believe the partition is named system_lib so you might be able to do it through fastboot format or fastboot erase, but I haven't tried this personally.

I suppose like making a e-book with a contents page that you can tap a page and go straight to the selected page.

Any answers.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blackfoot:
Not too sure how you want to go about this, do you want to create and edit and search on your pda? or create/edit on a pc then download and search using your pda?

If its the last option, there are many many many ways -- a few might be, create a master word doc and link to several 'sub' docs each one is an individual file, excel files can have text boxes inserted, say one per worksheet tab and it has data search facilities built in. FrontPage or NVU would allow simple html docs (web pages) to be created and linked via an index page and useable via PIE.

The list goes on...

A few specifics might help pin it down.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
Well.... That's just great.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] vader860:
This reinforces the notion that carriers strategically release or withold updates to try to get more sales at the expense of the consumer. It would be nice if Sprint drops 4.3 within a month, but its likely unlikely.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sgt. slaughter:
How did that junk article reinforce that notion?.... It just said the update is supposedly with carriers...that's it.

The only time something is held ever is when a new device is about to launch, and even still that is an extreme rarity. What people don't typically realize is when carriers get the update it takes typically 3weeks to test and approve said update. 4-6weeks if its an OS upgrade too and not just a patch. They have to test and send back to HTC then test again...process takes time.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] vader860:
It's just that Sprint is still sitting on the 4.2 update and now 4.3 and Key Lime Pie is around the corner shortly thereafter. Looking at the big picture, it is plausible that the release cycle is delayed to boost sales. There should be a new flagship phone sometime next year in the first half, possibly launching with Key Lime Pie. Then these 4.2 and 4.3 delays add up only to satisfy users wanting updates to get close to launch date.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Rippley05:
Is it me, or is it always the US carriers "testing" these updates for months and months? We are a nation of lies and greed so it doesn't surprise me honestly
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
The dev edition has been confirmed to be skipping 4.2.2 because it is a "minor update."

I think what Google did is it gave out the 4.3 source to OEMs like Samsung and HTC before it announced it. So, HTC (and therefore, the carriers) has had 4.3 ready for a while. We may be seeing the 4.3 update soon.

There are so many grammatical errors in there I wouldn't trust it. Also stop saying carriers have the updates. No one has ever come out and said the carriers have 4.2.2 and yet everyone assumes they held onto it in the comments. With the way the Verizon HTC One is realsing with 4.2.2 it is almost painfully obvious HTC and Verizon had some sort of deal.

I don't think you understand what the word "business" means in the real world. Companies could care less whether the consumers receive the update in a timely fashion.

This is great if true. I don't mind waiting for 4.3 because there are a lot of apps that are incompatible with it right now, like HBO GO. I have 4.3 on my Nexus7 and sometimes I wish it was on 4.2.2 so that all my apps are working like they are on my One.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ThePhoneGeek:
So Verizon is notoriously the slowest of the top four carriers when it comes to devices and updates so I'll be shocked and amazed if they release 4.3 at launch. In fact if they update to 4.3 before Halloween I'll be shocked...

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sgt. slaughter:
Don't see how you pulled that out of my post but ok..... I fully understand business in the real world bud. Lol

The other snafu the carriers run into is getting HTC to work and dev the update itself to begin with. Carriers have the ability to pay to "jump line" so to say and have more resources from HTC work it. Costs $ though....

But like I said, they don't just sit on an update ever.... Only time this happens is with an upcoming new product. Those that claim they are sitting on updates typically have no clue.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] xeyesofthousandx:
It's not. It's shipping with 4.2.2 out of the box. As of today, 4.3 has been announced for ALL U.S. carriers with a release date of mid-September. Verizon is the only carrier that's gonna see 4.2.2, everyone else is skipping and going to 4.3 directly from 4.1.2
