Now that I'm upgrading from my 2 year contract on an HTC Desire S I've been looking at the market. The HTC One is obviously the current flagship HTC and mainly because I've never used an android phone without Sense I'm not sure if any other brand would suit. Trouble is I've held a "One" and don't really like the metal body. My missus has an HTC One X and it feels great. So looked for a One X+ and I can't find one on contract. 6 months old and already abandoned. The only phone that seems ok is the upcoming HTC Desire 500. Middle range phone, sense 5, nice screen and a memory card slot.

I just want a 4.3" decent spec android with 32GB of memory either on the phone or via a memory card. Not sure about non sense phones although looked at a windows 8 phone - but i don't think the OS is mature enough yet.

Any ideas?

Need help. I rooted my phone some time back when it was ICS. I reinstalled stock app (after worrying about battery life) and then updated to JellyBean 4.1.1. I kept root.

Today I updated to 4.1.2 [Kernal 3.0.31; Build Nu: JZ054K.I747UCDMG2). I've lost root access. So...I want to root again. Here is the advise / help part.

1) How do I root given than I'm at version 4.1.2? (I can only find instructions for 4.1.1)??

2) What image should I install? Stock? CyMod? I'm always worried about battery life. I get nervous that system will leak power.

Help!!!!

Thanks in advance.

So I'm noticing a strange issue with wireless connection with mobile data. For a few days my phone was disconnected since I'm on Virgin mobile and didn't renew my account on time :rolleyes:. During those few days I had no trouble connecting to my home WiFi. After adding funds and reconnecting my phone I'm currently unable to connect to my home WiFi network. I've tried restarting my phone, power cycling my router, disabling Connection Optimizer, soft resetting my phone, and forgetting and reconnecting to my network; all to no avail. When scanning for networks I'm able to connect but I get the message "Authencation error occurred".

I'm at the end of my rope since all I could find from google is just general troubleshooting tips that don't help at all.

As for my phone itself, I'm currently rooted, using stock TouchWiz (android 4.1.2) and Garwynn kernel 3.0.74 with Agats recovery. I also have Xposed Framework installed with a few tweaks added, but even after disabling them and removing the Xposed Framework completely the issue still persists. Has anyone else had similar issues or any idea what's going on?

Make a nandroid and a backup on you're PC.. Dirty flash ROM..if it boot loops or doesn't fix WiFi.. Restore backup.. If that doesn't fix.. A clean install should do the trick....if you have a backup already just use it.. Just a thought, as I've never had/seen this issue. Others my have better advice.. Hope this helped

I've already restored from a backup from when I had WiFi with no success. I really don't want to reflash unless there's no other way. I'll keep digging around on google and the forums and hopefully I can get this fixed without resorting to that

Hi everybody,

I'm new to these forums and I hope I'm posting in the right section, anyways I just purchased an Acer iconia b1 710 tablet today, and wanted to install Cerberus anti theft, but in order to get factory wipe protection I needed a rooted system so the app could install into the system rom, now mind you im a complete noob when it comes to rooting. I tried to root with the Acer iconia toolkit it seemed to go fine, but it didn't I booted up my device its stuck in a boot loop. I scoured the internet, and didn't find a thing for my device. when I try to re flash the system.img file one of the toolkits dependencies, the system recovery said "installation aborted". I also scoured the internet to find answers to that problem to no avail. any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Now Im Unable to boot into recovery so looks like theres not much hope left.

PS: I don't think this is a question, not 100% sure based on what this forum calls a question, but if so please inform me about the q&a forums I didn't seem to find them.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markzip:
When I try to connect to a T-Mo tower for data al I get is an icon in the notification area saying "Sign in to Network" =. When I hit that I am sent to a T-Mo page asking me to sign in. I give it my credentials and press login but nothing happens.

I've talked to T-Mobile and they cannot find anything. They've sent me to Google. Waiting for them to get back to me. In the meantime I figured I'd ask XDA. So, any ideas?

Relevant parameters:

LG Nexus 4

The phone is bone stock Android 4.3

The SIM is new (about 2 months)

I can make calls and text on T-Mobile.

The SIM works in my old Nokia N97 phone and talks to T-Mobile Edge data fine.

The phone connects to ATT HSPA data fine when I put an ATT SIM in it.

The phone connects to data abroad.

Airplane mode is not on.

Data is on.

Roaming is on.

WiFi is off

Airplane mode is off.

I have wiped the phone and started from scratch, no luck.

I have tried in Safe Mode, no luck. (So it's not some odd App interaction)

I have told T-Mobile to kick me off the network and then wiped and restarted, no luck.

I have been through all the APN setting with T-Mobile, all is well.

I have wiped caches, no luck.

TIA

I'd look up the APN details on here for tmobile. Cant find a link at the moment but i know there are a few out there. T-mobile people usually have no idea...

this happened toe last night as well, lasted about 3 hours or so. it connected to the towers jist fine, sometimes the signal bars turned blue, sometimes not. but no data flowed through, neither via lte or hspa+. i called tmobile to check if they had an outage, they said no. i had them reset my data connection, but that didnt help. eventually data started flowing via hspa+, then via lte an hour later. i did all the troubleshooting, it wasnt an issue with the phone nor sim card. it was a tmobile issue for sure.

my htc vivid has has dropped calls and bad signal for over a month now. First they told me it was a bad tower, then they called and told me it was a bad phone and if the replacement didnt work theyd need to change the model. Today I got my replacement, same issues, called them back. they remoted my phone to SEE the issue, then assured me it was the towers again, then we got disconnect, they called me back and got disconnected again. So i called them back and got someone new and she was sweet and said he was crazy it had to be my phone so they are sending me another vivid... I wish they would have just given me another model, so i could have a working phone and wouldnt be pulling my hair out over dropped calls and u sent messages.

Anyone having issues?

I have terrible battery at home, but ok at work. Looking at my graph, the first 2 and last wifi line is home, the 3rd is at work. Mostly screen off. What's going on? Is there a router setting I can change?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalunna:
I had bad battery life on my S4 right after release. I tracked it down to Multicast being ENABLED on one of my Access Points. I would recommend logging into your routers and/or) access points and look for anything related to Multicast and Disable it (or uncheck it).

Granted this was for a totally different device (note that my Nexus 7 was NOT affected by multicast) but it certainly cant hurt anything by disabling multicast..If it does, just enable it again.

My S4 was using approx 5%-8% of battery per hour with multicast enabled...once I disabled it, I now drain about 1% per hour.

This took me almost 2 weeks to discover...keeping in mind that my S4 never connected to the affected AP. I use that AP for older legacy devices.....just having it on the network affected my S4.

Give it a try..if it does not work..enable it again.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcat007:
That does sound logical, and I've read about that in other threads. I have a WRT54G router and see nothing about multicast other than "filter multicast" under security (block LAN requests) which is checked to prevent multicast.

The other thing that has changed recently is I switched Cable modems from Cisco 2100 to Motorola SB6141. Not sure if I can change anything in it or if could cause problems.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalunna:
I was running Tomato on the WRT54G and that is the setting I was referring to (but under tomato its in FIrewall - "Allow MultiCast"

It seems that you have the "correct" setting - To block multicast - As such, I'm sorry that my fix didnt work for you..

As far as the new Modem, it may be possible that multicast is enabled on the new one. Im not even sure if that is a setting you can change as those motorolas are locked down pretty tight by the ISP's
