[General Questions and Answers] raduzz:
My app was suspended 2 times

My experience:

1. I developed my next app. I Called it "Gmail Reader", and used a gmail-like icon with additional graphics around it. Not very wise probably - but as I saw hundred another apps having gmail logo in their icon, I thought it was OK. Aaand.. Suspended.

2. I wrote a reply to the suspension notification, and I got a machine reply. Then I replied second time, and finaly a man answered:

"While we are unable to provide specifics as to how to bring your app into compliance, please understand that usage of certain app titles and images may cause confusion among users who are searching for the legitimate app from the original creator. Please visit our Policy Help Center for more information and examples on our policy regarding Intellectual Property.

If we can assist you further, please let us know."

So That was it - the icon and the title, I thought.

3. So I repackaged, renamed, changed icon (drawn it myself). Instead of Gmail in the frist place I put "XYZ for Gmail". However, I noticed later, that I forgot in my screenshots on 2 places the previous icon - so not even in the main place, just somewhere in the screenshot.

Suspended again. This time, no answer, I filed an appeal, answered in half day - no dispute, app terminated. But i RECOMMEND to file an appeal - there is a form for that - as you might get closer to the reason why. I got this:

If your account is still in good standing and the nature of your app allows for republishing you may consider releasing a new, policy compliant version of your app to Google Play under a new package name. You can learn more about why your app was suspended by reviewing our policy on impersonation. We are unable to comment further on the specific policy

I have NO idea WHO the hell I impersonated. I would really like to know.. And even more I'd like to receive a warning before suspension.

Up in the corner of developers console there is a questionmark and in certain hours if you click it, instead of EMAIL you will see LIVE CHAT. From that chat I learned, they will not and cannot give you ANY support regarding the policies.

I also learned, that a "account in good standing" means that you can still publish apps.

4. Previous app had thousand unique installs in 3 days. So of course I repackaged....etc.. everything again, now extremely carefully, no Gmail word used in title. But I'm aware now, that I cannot know everything and they can suspend for any reason I'm not aware of - I maybe used some words mattel copyrighted :DDD SO it is really "fun". Let's see.

That's my story until now, will post again - hopefully will get wiser without further suspensions - it is time consuming sh** !!!

BTW, I wrote a letter to Google Dev Support, so they think of creating support for policies - as there are many developers with good intentions contributing a lot, not knowing WHY they are stopped.

Best of luck to all...

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyNooch:
This is my second time rooting my Gen1 Kindle Fire. (The first time was very successful but stupid me, I went back to factory settings for no good reason).

From KF's updated software (6.3.2) I used Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.9, to install TWRP 2.6 and other google apps. I loaded TWRP and cleared cache etc. I then installed the new CM 10.1 SGT 7 rom. When i rebooted the KF, i didnt get the option to boot into twrp. What happens now is, it shows the orange Kindle Fire boot screen, and then continues to the CM10.1 boot screen. I may have installed CM10 over the KF software somehow. Now, my PC recognizes it as a Kindle Fire when I plug in the USB but there's an error in the device manager. Basically, KFU doesn't recognize it's a Kindle anymore. When I try to reboot it in recovery mode, it just does a regular reboot. Nothing about my KF looks like there's twrp installed in the background. I can't access it no matter what.

I tried sideloading Google Play and installing the TWRP Manager app but that doesn't do anything at all. I feel like my KF is going to be stuck like this forever. Any way to hard reset everything without TWRP? I have the proper "update.zip" file on the sdcard but I can't access any way to Wipe it and Install it.

Just so you know, the kindle isn't bricked it just seems like it's permanently stuck the way it is and my PC won't recognize its harddrive via USB.

Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyNooch:
Still no replies huh? Damn.

So when I turn on my kindle fire, the orange Kindle Fire logo shows up for a few seconds THEN the CyanogenMod boot screen comes up. I never get the option to boot into TWRP.

When I plug my KF into my PC, the Kindle Fire drivers get an error so i change it into an Android ADB Composite device. It still won't recognized the device properly. When I open up the console and try "adb devices" nothing shows as connected. I've installed the SDK and changed the files but it's the same thing. All that to say, the KFU no longer recognizes when the KF is plugged in.

Apologies if this may sound like a silly question.

I have an international version of the S4, the jfltexx version. I then flashed it with Jamal's 4.3 GE ROM.

Is my device considered i9505G now?

I'm asking as I've experienced a lot of problems flashing CM 10.2 roms using the jfltexx version of TWRP.

I'm thinking of switching to the jgedlte version to see if my problems will be solved

Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
No. You now have an i9505 running a GE rom.

If you have the international version then best to only use international Roms.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aikwawa:
ok, got it.

But under phone info, i noticed this:

So i got confused... and besides, there are quite a number of rooting apps that I have been using, they report that my device is not supported (although I am quite sure it is since it's listed on the play store that they support i9505... so this leads me to suspect that my phone is now operating as an i9505G?)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
The rom changed your build.prop to i9505G. You can change it back with a build.prop editor, I use the one in Rom Toolbox.

Apps look for your model number in your build.prop to check that your device is compatible, as yours has been changed its tricking the apps into thinking you have an i9505G.

Your phone ain't changed, it's still just an i9505

Sent from my GT-I9505 whilst taking a s**t
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aikwawa:
Thanks! But in terms of custom recoveries and ROM flashing, does the build.prop matter? will it result in errors in installation etc.?

I'm asking as i've been having alot of problems flashing CM 10.2 using TWRP meant for i9505.

I've yet to try flashing through the TWRP meant for i9505G yet.

Hi,

I bought a used HTC one on craiglist only to find out that is is stolen. Att wouldnt allow me to activate it.

I am so stressful now. What other option do I have with other carrier at all? Don't tell me to use as a wifi fone please.

Here is my IMEI. I dont understand that I already check that IMEI first hand, it shows clean, but somehow I still got scam.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bob2k4:
Unfortunately there isn't much you can do with this, it has happened to me in the past also. Just because the IMEI is clean when you bought it doesn't mean that a few days / weeks / months later the original owner doesn't report it lost / stolen at which point it becomes blocked to you.

The only resolution is for the person who reported it lost / stolen to the networks contact the network and advise they have located it, and they will then lift the IMEI bar
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stagius24:
So there is no hope trying with T-mobile?

I just check with Imei checker, and they say T-mobile is clean. Do carriers share the blacklist?

Ive bought a lot of phones on CL. Ive only been burned once.

What i did learn is that if they have Asurion they have 30 days to file a Lost/Stolen claim with them.

Then another 120 days to finalize the claim and pay the deductible.

I had this happen to me when i got a TMO GS3. I had it 4 months and then one day it didnt work. I followed up with TMO and found it was listed as stolen. I knew the store manager and she remembers when i had them check it. She did some digging and found out the 30 day / 120 day timeline.

The crappy thing is, i emailed Asurion multiple times to let them know the person who reported it stolen was scamming people and using insurance fraudulently and they didnt care.

With insurance its easy to scam people. Without it not so much.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I have been unsuccessfully trying to find an answer to this question for the last hour!

I know you better don't use this option if you have a custom recovery installed, but never learned: Why?

What does the stock bootloader wipe if you execute 'Wipe Data"?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It tells the recovery to wipe the data. The issues exist where older versions of recoveries don't understand what a newer version of the bootloader told it to do. I don't know if it gets stuck in a loop at this point as the bootloader is now waiting for the recovery to finish or the recovery actually wipes the wrong partition?

If the bootloader and recovery are compatible there shouldn't be a problem. But why take the risk?

_that can probably offer more technical detail.......
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Thanks sbdags!

I guess my question is: does 'Wipe data' from the BL menu on a stock system wipe only /data or also /system and ... anything else? Or is it just the same (in terms of result) as a format data in TWRP?

I am trying to help someone on the Transformer forum who seems to have a seriously messed up tablet: Lots of random reboots and freezes, Factory Reset from the Settings menu causes a restart and nothing else...

On a stock system Wipe Data from the BL should be ok to use, right?

I just don't want to send him down a path I don't fully understand....
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Correct.

The following is what I know - it might not be 100% corrrect because I've never tried it myself:

When the user chooses "wipe data" from the bootloader menu, the bootloader writes some information to the "misc" partition (mmcblk0p3) and starts the recovery. The recovery finds a command in the misc partition and formats (?) the data partition. When it is finished, it removes the command from the misc partition so that the bootloader can again boot Android. When it is interrupted in any way, after a reboot the bootloader will automatically enter the recovery directly.

The problem with this is if your recovery is broken or incompatible. I've read somewhere in this forum that the incompatibility is from enabling something called TF (Trusted Foundation) in the bootloader since JB, which requires a corresponding option in the (Android and recovery) kernel. If the kernel does not have this enabled, it cannot access the eMMC at all.

Now if your recovery cannot access the eMMC, you can't reset the information in the misc partition, and the bootloader will stubbornly try to boot the recovery to wipe data. The fact that not even the boot menu or fastboot works in this case makes this a hard brick.

It should only delete /data because if it wiped /system you could not boot Android anymore. It's called "ROM" for a reason. :)

I believe that "factory reset" from the Settings menu should do something similar as "wipe data" from the bootloader - instruct the recovery to wipe data and reboot. If that reboot does not enter the recovery, something seems wrong.

Wiping data from the bootloader *should* be safe on a stock system, but I'd check before if entering the stock recovery manually (Volume-down) works. I believe it even has a menu (try the Power button) that you can use for wiping data too, but maybe I am confusing this with early versions of CWM.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Who is brave enough to try to test it? :) It may do what TWRP calls a factory wipe. I.e., it doesn't touch /data/media but does the rest of the data partition, it may do the full data partition.

Have a look in the TF101 forums for different types of bricks - there is a thread there describes two ot three types of bricks and solutions. You may find an answer there. Also look here for busters solution ;)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45120193#post45120193
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
If something is called "factory reset" or "wipe data", I expect it to remove *all* user data. I don't know why TWRP is broken in this regard - OK, the feature to preserve /data/media is useful but then they shouldn't call it "factory reset".
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I agree. They should call it "Almost Wipe Data" or "Kinda Wipe Data" :sly:

You are as always a treasure of knowledge! Thanks a million!

And I'll see if this bloke is desperate enough to give it a try - with full disclosure naturally... :D

I think he's still under warranty...
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
No, wipe from the bootlloader also wipe your personal data. I have been there and done that. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
With " Wipe Data" only /system will survive, all other partitions will be wiped and personal data will be lost. Personally i can say that i tried every possible combination to brick this device (getting to a state where only APX could help - yes i have Nvflash blobs) but i always failed. Certainly the test were made with compatible bootloader - recovery.... and please don't try that at home if your device is not NvFlash capable. :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
+1 Good advice. You may get into more mess than you think.. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Techpenguin5:
Have a small issue i am running a custom recovery but used the factory reset option in cromi-x and now my tab is stuck in what i pressume is the wipe function described here it always boots straight into a recovery wipe cant access fastboot or anything any help?

However adb interface still works
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
So what is the problem? You wanted to do a factory reset, and it does a factory reset. Wait until it is finished and it should reboot to Android.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Techpenguin5:
it hasnt for half an hour so i rebooted manually and its stuck
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
If you always reboot before it's finished it won't ever finish...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Techpenguin5:
how long is it supposed to take the progress bar is just moving like not even started the actual process
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
you have not told us yet which custom recovery you have it also depends on the storage size of your device and probably what you had installed your posts are really hard to read you should use some punctuation
[Asus Transformer TF700] Techpenguin5:
I apologize for the bad punctuation i am just freaking out therefore not thinking when i type.

So here is a summary

Recovery=CWM

ROM=Cromi-x

Unlocked bootloader

Stuck in cwm recovery wipe which is not initiating for whatever reason

adb works

Thank you for you time :), perhaps all i need to do is use an adb command to stop the wipe
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
No - just listen to _that and let it finish! It can take 6 hours+. Connect it to a power source and leave it alone.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Techpenguin5:
Thank you sooooooo much for this worked like a charm. Cant thank you enough, was scared it was gone.

Hello people,

I just noticed yesterday that my DS has no sound at all although the sound settings are correct!

You can make and receive calls surf the net use the apps and everything but with no sound.

If you connect the hands free you hear music and all the sounds of the phone but if you disconect then it goes mute again.

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:

[HTC Desire S] tasos12:

[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Have you tried a hard reset?
[HTC Desire S] tasos12:
No I havent and I d like to avoid one.....

Is there another solution you can think of?
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
Are you rooted? You could try replacing the sound driver files. But I would first try a hard reset. Or maybe your speaker has suddenly packed up
[HTC Desire S] tasos12:
No I aint rooted and I am against hard reset (too many things to back up).

I remember this happening again a couple of years ago but it came back to its senses when I plugged the handsfree on.

Having my ONE X on service I ve been using my old DS for music quite a lot with the handsfree so I think that has something to do with the problem.I am almost sure that the phone somehow thinks its on hands free thats why no sound is heard....
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
What if while playing music with hands free in, then unplug it
[HTC Desire S] tasos12:
I already tried that and it didnt work
