Last time I've unlocked my bootloader, it was about 10 months ago, and I don't remember really well, but I think, it should clear all your data, not really sure though.

If you've downloaded the WWE RUU from HTC dev, it should work for your phone, regardless the branding.
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
if my bootloader is unlocked n then i run RUU will that Create any prob ?
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
dude .. my Bootloder is 20.4801.30.0822u_3822.10.08.04_m n prob is there is no Vodafone_FR RUU available n i think no Sense 2.1 also :/ can u help me finding GB ruu for me with sense 2.1 or atleast with lower hboot 0.98.xx so that i can easily root my device ?
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
well btw dude .. there are noo scene , ringtones , bootanimation of vodafone so how can this be a branded phone ? but there are some apps named with A1 tv ,etc but the apps are not shiwng in all apps .. though .. still u think my cell is branded ?
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
As far as i know, it won't flash, unless you've a locked boot loader.

Look in Desire S' development section, there should be a thread with all available RUU. At best, look in the index thread.

I don't know. It seems strange.
[HTC Desire S] chninkel:
Here's a link to vodafone_fr RUU if needed: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByEGoQnNtOhXZU5oWjkwSDJUMEk/edit?usp=sharing

BTW have you checked using fastboot getvar cidnum if it's really vodafone FR branded (VODAP203) ?
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
wow how did u find it ? please tell the web , n my CID is VODA-Mobilkom VODAP120 :( not VODAP203 but according to that antutu screenshot its saying Vodafone FR ..

dude i want to unbrand my HTC howto do that ? i dont want the vodafone At&t n all non-sense , i want to make it simple HTC .. ? how to do that ..

n yeah there are apps showing in All when go to settings>applications>storage use , there are so many apps which r not shwing in the menu :/ now what is this ? em dam confused ... :(

Thanks :)
[HTC Desire S] chninkel:
It was on one of my Gdrive account, easy to find (for me at least ;)).

As far as I know there's no way to unbrand a phone (I mean changing CID).

What do you exactly want to do ? Just get rid of preinstalled crapware and staying on stock ? If so, like nvardan said, create a goldcard & flash whatever Asia RUU you want.
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
what if i flash a Europe RUU .. ?

n for my bootloader there is no software with sense 2.1 the all RUU are sense 3.0 ...

i can flash simple HTC RUU ?
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
dude in the ROM.zip , android-info.txt has my CID VODAP120 ... but the thng is i donot want to flash voda ( French ewwww ) i want the Simple HTC STock .. if possible so with sense 2.1 otherwise Sense 3.0 will be okay !
[HTC Desire S] chninkel:
What's your hboot, 2.00.0002 I guess ?

If you want to revert back to sense 2.1 you need to change your misc_version before flashing RUU, otherwise you will get a bootloader error (check downgrade guide / tacoroot).

then:

I previously said Asia because that's the location in your profile but Europe RUU will work as well with goldcard.
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
Just look in to your devices current <build.prop> file,

there you`ll find the info about the CID`s,

ver.number, etc....

two more interesting locations to check:

1) /system/customize/CID/default.xml

2) /system/customize/MNS/default.xml

If you wouldn`t find right ruu (in case is branded)

just find and read how to make a system dump....

..may also still find something there:

http://gsmffflash.blogspot.com/2013/03/htc-desire-s-s510e-saga-stock-roms.html
[HTC Desire S] mrroks:
hahha :D yeah i want to flash europe ... well downgrade process is too muchconfusing so em stick with sense 3.0 .. yeah hboot ver is 2.00.0002

n can u post me a link to how to create a gold card n then flash ruu with gold card method >.

thanks dude :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] lalolost:
I recently rooted my nexus to connect my control using Bluetooth. I had everything set up but then it wouldn't read L1 or L3. I know it works because when I have the control connected directly through cable without the sixaxis app, all buttons work. I tried looking for others with this problem but nothing. I even changed the room to Cyanogenmod and still same issue. What am I missing here?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] panjgoori:
Hello. Bought a used Xperia V today and when i reached home i looked closely at the front panel of V and i'm shocked to see that there is no Sony logo on front of phone. Other than that every thing on phone looks genuine and its also water proof as checked by the shopkeeper on front of me.

What i want to ask that is its original ? or its chinese made phone ? its model is lt25i. Please answer as soon as possible. thanks.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] trickymoon:
I think the screen protector is removed, maybe it was scratched.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] panjgoori:
yes screen protector is removed. is sony logo is placed on screen protector but not on glass ?

are you talking about plastic screen protector or scratch resistant glass ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
the sony logo is on the factory fitted screen protector that many users remove. It is nothing to worry about
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] panjgoori:
thank you all for your replies. i was worried about it but now i'm relaxed. thanks.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] yuskhayru:
So the sony logo is removeable? Interesting..same as xperia z?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
Oh, that is ugly. they put that logo on the screenprotector?

on my Xperia T i have both logos on the glass, removed the screenprotector and still have sony and xperia logo :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] yuskhayru:
for me its not a problem at all. even the "SONY" logo removed, its still a sony product. the performance and quality is still the same with or without the sony logo. i just scared if i remove the screen protector along with the sony logo my phone will turn into an iphone. :eek:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Steven How:
Was thinking wanna cut the sony logo out ans put under the capacitive button.. XD
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RMSK:
well for my case its a sony xperia z3 and has no front logo yet the screen protector is still on. is it a fake??

[HTC One X+] grega_slo:
Hi!

I made TWRP backup, SYSTE, DATA and BOOT.

I tought that SDcard would be backed up too. Now I restored it (after firmware flash so SD was wiped) and my pictures, music is gone :S

DATA does not include media/sdcard aswell?

Regards,

G
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Thats obvious. It's because if more than 40/45 % of your SD card was used, there would be no room for the backup :rolleyes:
[HTC One X+] kingofnice:
And where do you think the back up was backed up to anyways!?!?
[HTC One X+] grega_slo:
I have like 4GB used on SD...

It would be cool if you could select folders not only partitions for backup :)

Just my 2 cents..
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
Or just pull it off of the device before you nuke everything... Common sense and all

Guys, do you have this problem with missing controls or features in landscape mode? For example, latest YouTube app: the play controls disappear.

Or Yahoo weather, the additional info disappears.

These apps work perfectly on other smartphones.

Hello,

I have a problem when using the phone with bluetooth headset.

When I perform a call from the device using the BT headset the other side hears my voice very distorted.

However when I receive a call the other side hear my voice very well.

I tested two different BT headsets and they all have the same problem.

I also tested those BT headsets with Samsung Galaxy S2 and they worked correctly.

Please help me solve this problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ykaltum:
did you get any answer

hello

my problem is as you describe

did you get any answer for that problem?

thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] va4ik:
It does not work with certain network providers. In my country we have 3 cellular providers Pelephone,Cellcom, and Orange. Only Cellcom has a problem.

There is some kind of interference between BT transmission and Cellcom broadcast. My guess it is a HW issue in THL cellular phones.

So the best solution is to switch cellular provider.

no problem

but my supplier is cellcom

i cannot go to another supplier

is there any thing i can do to fix it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] va4ik:
I also found this bug in THL W100. This is probably design bug in all THL line of phones.

This phone is designed for Chineese market and I guess there were no problems with Chineese providers. Also they may have skipped some of the tests or limitations to reduce the phone price.

Aparently this is HW issue, so no software can fix it.

The only way to fix it is to switch the provider or give up the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] va4ik:
I also found another solution if you move your phone to GSM mode only, it also solves the problem.

This can be done in settings menu.

Hi guys ,

I am also on GOLAN network - which is "Cellcom" based . and having same problems...

Did you find any other ways of correcting this problem ,

Is there a solution for this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meronl:
Fixed

16-12-13 SOLVED:

Looks like i found a fix for this, problem is in one of the parameters of the audio speech enhancement settings.

this is what i did :

enter engineer mode through moble uncle tools or gravity mod.

go to hardware testing

select audio

select speech enhancement

change common parameter to BT earphone

change parameter0 to parameter12

change the value to 20488

press back several times

reboot phone and test it

i came to this solution by comparing the differences to my jiayu in witch this was recently solved.

one extra problem

After making a call (I use Lenovo p780) when I'm on 3g, the phone "falls out" the network. It restore the connection in few seconds, but it's annoying. It doesn't happen always, but very frequent

When I change my phone to 2g mod, it works well, but in 3g- the problem is there

any solution?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YossiN:

with another phone it works well

it's something to do with 3g & bluetooth together
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sevenslugs:
How do you determine what the best TCP setting is? (Westwood, cubic etc...)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fysix:
I've investigated this problem a few times, although on routers and not on handsets. The conclusion I ended up coming to is that enabling these TCP features usually doesn't make much of a difference at all. The different TCP settings you are describing (reno, vegas, westwood, cubic, et al), will only have a significant benefit in very specific cases, which in practice aren't encountered often (and enabling these may be to your detriment in the general use cases). There is a thread on the forums for the tomato router firmware that describes many of the limitations of TCP Vegas. I'm unable to post links, but it is the top result in google for "The infamous TCP Vegas" (the title of the thread). If you have any trouble finding it let me know. The thread is more aimed toward routers, and so some limitations won't apply.

I think the best way to determine if any of those settings are beneficial is to enable them one at a time and see what happens. If there is any benefit it will be very minimal, and it will be next to impossible to remove bias since it wouldn't be a double blind experiment.

Perhaps someone else could chime in if they know something about these TCP algorithms that I don't.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeezy85:
Hey People,

i previously rooted my phone on stock firmware along with changing the kernel. I have no restored and removed root back to stock but i get this message when doing a OTA update as i need the latest update to enable 4G on my phone. It says Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available. How do i go about fixing this? I have done some research and used the triangle app to reset the flash counter which now says Official rather then Custom In download mode? If i flash the firmware does it automatically Re flash my Kernel or is that separate? I have looked for the stock i9505 kernel i Just cant seem to find it.

Will appreciate the help

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samersh72:
flash stock firmware, stock kernel included
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jujuburi:
It's normal that it says that. Just install Xposed framework, then Wanam Xposed, there is an option to fake the system status as official and thus you'll be able to update firmware OTA.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeezy85:
i have flashed stock firmware 2/3 times now doing another 1 as we speak it still says i cannot update ota..

I wiped the data, without success, then I flashed everything again with Heindall 1.4.0, then wiped everything again. Now I have official status and should receive OTA updates.

Edit: but after rooting the official status is lost. Now I think this may be normal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
So suddenly today I noticed that all my calls are getting labels showing where the phone number is.

Like voicemail shows Oxnard California. Or a 610 area code shows Philadelphia.

Is this a new T Mobile feature? Is this a new feature of Android 4.3? Or is this a new feature of Carbon ROM that Im using? Or is it an unlisted feature of the Rocketdialer app I just got?

This is really cool and I can't find any documentation on this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Haven't notice that. All my calls still show the caller ID info but not location of call origination.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Turns out is is part of Rocketdialer. I just didn't see it in the app description on the play store.

It's pretty cool!

I assume the app just has a list of area codes for the entire nation and tells you the city the area code is from. But like for the voicemail number it was very specific.

It's pretty neat. And I don't think you need to use the Dialer app as your primary dialer in order to see the location notifications. It's worth a look.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Android_Monsters:
The T-Mobile caller id costs money. Not something you wouldn't notice. Maybe your ROM has white pages caller id included.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Are you sure T-mobile caller ID cost extras? I never signed up for it and it just started working when I got the GS4. If it cost me money I'm going to call them and make sure to cancel it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] macaumen:
I just want to know the city and state of the caller. I don't need to know who exactly is calling. Without paying T-Mobile, I only know the state. Sigh.

I've just been on the phone to Expansys uk and they tell me this device will be available through them on the 30th September,as I previously know with Expansys this could more likely mean 30th January 2006!Anybody have any release dates from other companies and when they expect to be shipping them to customers?

Also I've been reading into the facy the cpu is 200 mhz instead of the Jams current 415mhz.Is there some reason for this?Does it really mean it's a slower unit or is the device and cpu mapped differntly somehow so it will perform the same as the jam,or perhaps faster?It looks a great device and i cab't beleive they would put a much slower processor in unless there were some valid reason for it,and i don't want to "upgrade" to a slower device!Any thoughts?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] bnycastro:
I read somewhere that it would be using TI OMAPs 195mhz some say it will be slower but some say that it would make no or lil diff as the OMAPs sort of act as 'dual' processors... one for phone part the other pda part (thus no slow down and saves power). we can never be sure unless we play with it and load it with all our fav apps though... i'd wait for a hands on review since the previews floating about are of pre-prod units or engineering samples, better to read an actual full review of a shipping product. I'm really excited about the wizard!!! hope it rocks... so far it's the only ppc coming out that i am really eyeing the universal seems too big.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ccsnet:
Cant see it been slower really - wont do their sales much good.

Terran
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ShALLaX:
Unfortunately, it will be considerably slower. While the OMAP does combine seperate processors for phone and PDA functionality, at the end of the day it is just a 195MHz ARM processor (as found in PDAs from years ago) - it's not even Xscale.

The fact that its a "dual processor" doesn't help unless you are trying to use a programme like Skype (which apparently DOES work on the Wizard!).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ccsnet:
Thats what I mean - it cant be any slower than that...

device on smartdevicesdirect

There's this supplier in the Uk

www.smartdevicesdirect.com

that says that the wizard is going to be available in 1st october...

Does anyone have any feedback on this site ? are they reliable for purchase ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ShALLaX:
Their price is suspiciously low -- I've preordered with www.expansys.co.uk, I tried doing a pricematch but they said

So I guess £449 is the price I'll be paying (unless the price drops when the product is released).

When you're spending so much money, it's best to go with a company that has built up trust. I was reading the "returns" agreement with smartdevicesdirect.co.uk and you can only return if there is a fault; Expansys give you a 21 day grace period (like Argos' 16 day money-back guarantee). From experience, companies that explicitly state they can only accept returns for faulty items usually give much more problems/ resistance when trying to get an RMA --- even if the product is faulty (they have razor-thin profit margins and such).
