[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robgee789:
ok guys so this might get a little confusing but please bear with me, ive just moved house and with i had to switch from virgin media to BT for my internet which got turned on to day but now i cant update or download any apps from the play store while connected to my internet (i have the new bt home hub 4 if that helps) but if i connect to my neighbors bt open zone all apps download and update just fine?? ive tried rebooting my rooter, removing my gmail account and re adding it and clearing the data from the market too, but it isnt just my t300 it my nexus 7 and my wifes nexus 7 and my htc sensation too, there all doing the same thing.

edit:i just checked my phone and google chrome updated but nothing else so i checked my tf300 and that will update chrome too but no others apps that ive tried will update or download?? any ideas what would be causing this

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ScottishSwan:
Hey,

So I'm on the. 510 firmware and have had no screen issues etc before.

I recently unchecked the Optimize Backlight display setting - big mistake. My phone completely froze and took me awhile before it would even power on again and when it finally did it kept on blacking out.

Finally managed to quickly get into the settings to disable the Optimize Backlight and then reboot.

Question: what can we do about this? I do not like how the screen looks with Optimize.Backlight on but I can not turn it off as I then won't be able to use the phone.

So frustrating.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbdave:
What exactly is "Optimised Backlight" supposed to do? I'm not game to turn it off now.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] avetny:
My friend u can tick/untick Optimize Backlighting, don't forget to restart you device. (Just remember it will take 1-2 min to restart your phone).

Abour freez ...I'm sure it was a coincidence
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ScottishSwan:
Thanks but it is not coincidence. Many others have been reporting issues with this setting and i have had NO issues with my device at all, then as soon as i turn off the optimize backlight, my phone starts acting really weird.

It makes it very unstable when it is off, the phone randomly blacks out and refuses to turn and when it does turn on, just behaves like there is a problem.

Point is, this setting and a bug like this should not have made it past the approval process especially because i had no issues before.

Its poor from sony and just sloppy. Almost every firmware update has brought along its own set of problems.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ScottishSwan:
It is supposed to save some battery life by adjusting the screen depending on what content is on the screen.

It basically makes the screen more dim, lower contrast and worse saturation. Its a ****ty setting to be honest. Excuse my language ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] avetny:
You need to restart device after each time you check/unchecked optimize backlighting to see effect.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ScottishSwan:
Yes I know and I have done this.

It's best just to leave that setting along. Nothing but trouble.

Sony needs to fix this.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] maquan:
I think on the next update. Sony will fix this issue by just RENAME the "Optimized backlighting" option to "PREVENT SOD ON REBOOT" and make a widget to the desktop. So people will remember to tick it before rebooting their phone. That's all hahaa
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] unk_damnation:
Prevent sod and make your glorious triluminos display looks like cr*p is more like it :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jack4uno:
I'm on the .526 firmware, and when I turn on or off the optimised backlighting option, the screen blacks out for like 1-2 seconds, and then it works fine. The phone doesn't behave any differently.

I haven't tried rebooting yet with the optimised backlighting on or off.

Since you mention that you're on .510 firmware, maybe updating to .526 will fix this problem.

p.s. my xperia .526 is from HK.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
On .526 TW unticked optimized backlight, had fake hang at first reboot then no SOD since yesterday. I performed the update after a wipe of data (with Flashtool wipe data automatically). Some people still complain about SOD.

Go to Settings - Display - Brightness.

Un-tick Optimized backlight.

Shutdown the phone.

On back the phone, did the fake hang appear?

One success login to phone, immediate locking the screen by pressing the power button, did the Screen of Dead (SOD) happen?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jataadroid:
Again fruitless search results when browsing for a solution. So Im posting, PA_3.99 has been refusing to work right after 1st reboot after intitial flash reboot.

It started out twrp was having partition encryption issues, after reverting to PA's kernel i no longer encountered that. But the bootloop that issue caused (or atleast I thought) still continued.

Heres exactly what happens: Full format x2, flash PA, flash PA_Gapps, wipe, reboot (goes normally, go through setup, can use phone normally), second reboot (for whatever reason), bootloop at yellow sub samsung splash screen( not the PA glowing bean.

Idk if this has to do with TWRP or PA's kernel but those are the only things I can think of with my limited knowledge of android.

This will be the 8th time Ive had to format, flash, setup, reboot, and repeat. I love the PA rom and dont want to have to go to stock again just for a working phone.

pls&thx
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bbrita:
if your having this problem like i was you wont find a fix here no one seems to know the answer. ive searched and to no avail. 4.3 wont work on your phone no matter what rom you try. ive tried them all its not the newer phone problem because it reads my card with no problem. only happens on 4.3 roms. if you find a solution please post it or pm me i would love to use 4.3. also a guy had same thing on a note or s4 cant remember. we arent the only ones lol. good luck my friend

Well after fruitless and frustrating attempts to search/ask for a solution I simply tried flashing clockwork Mod through ROM manager on the successful boot. I've had 3 successful boots to PA 3.99.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] doug3673:
Is there any ROM or kernel out there with a sweep2wake function for the GS4? I hate the physical home button with every fibre of my being, and the power buttons on Galaxy devices over the ages have been known to fail after long periods of heavy use (I had constant power button problems with my GSII Skyrocket).

I would much rather just be able to swipe the screen to wake the phone up. If the Xoom has sweep2wake we've got to be able to get it working on the GS4 also.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
That would murder the battery.

I personally think it is foolish not to use a case.

To my knowledge, there is no sweep2wake apps that will work with this device... I could be wrong. I personally love having the home button. I also use the Spigen slim armor view case. It is incredible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Bradl79:
its actually not really a case, u replace the back and it just flips over like an ipad cover and turns the screen on and off, i hate cases too, never used one with my galaxy note, but i actually love this, saves on batter and i dont have to use the damn power button.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
EDIT: Now in open(and free!) beta! PM me for details

I'm close to finishing my new game, "Sic Semper". It's a space exploration and combat game with a randomized galaxy of 200 stars, each with a random number of planets(between 1 and 5), each with randomly generated terrain.

For the backstory: Humanity was almost entirely conquered by an alien race called the Ypetigan shortly after achieving interstellar travel. All that was left was a single secret facility working on a ship that would be capable of defending itself against the Ypetigan. The player takes command of that ship to rebuild human civilization by colonizing planets, expanding across the galaxy, and eliminating the Ypetigan.

Sic Semper features 7 different ship types, 6 weapon types, 4 types of turrets and 12 component upgrades. Initially, Sic Semper will be released for Android, but I also plan to release on basically any platform I can(I've made proof-of-concept ports of older builds to ubuntu using Qt and Chrome native client).

Here's a video of some of the basic gameplay in action(sorry for framerate issues, it's the fault of the screen recorder I used. I typically get ~60fps in practice):

[YOUTUBE]-pPtXPeUhzU[/YOUTUBE]

And here's some screenshots:

Solar System view:

Planetary view with combat(and a different ship: The Tyagharops Fighter.):

Planetary view with cloaked Sissphyu Courier:

Ship Customization Garage screen:

Also, here's the full album, if you want to see screenshots of progress dating back to March, 2012(I've been working on the game for more than 2 years): https://plus.google.com/photos/116688016659241634367/albums/5667908906736055633?fd=1

Finally, for a little technical info: The game uses my own custom gameplay and graphics engine using OpenGL ES 2.0. I wrote all the code myself(hence the > 2 years of development), got the ship models from turbosquid and the sound effects are modified versions from Freesound.org. I'm planning on releasing to the Play Store initially(probably 1-2 months down the road) and then Ouya(I already have controller support and have tested it successfully on Ouya). Then I'll probably port it to PC and possibly Chrome Native Client.

Calaxy S2 i9100 (international)

stock Android version Gingerbread 2.3.5 not rooted

Baseband version: I9100XXKI4

Kernal version: 2.6.35.7-I9100JPKJ2-CL655700 root@DELL143 #2

Build number Gingerbread.JPKJ2

no carrier. GSM sim card.

I want to perform the following to my i9100 phone:

1) How to move from the official Gingerbread 2.3.5 version to cyanogenMod 9 ROM. Including, can I install Cyanogen 9 on top of 2.3.5 kernal.

2) Best safe way to backup original stock Gingerbread ROM in case something doesn't go according to plan.

3) How and at what point during upgrade to CM 9 to root.

4) Which is the proper, stable kernal for this CM 9 (dorimanx has been recommended). At what point, during the upgrade process, is the kernal changed. This is a main concern I have.

I have never done any of this before. I didn't want to upgrade to Android 4.0.04 because of potential Super Brick or other complications. Jelly Bean is not an option for other reasons.

CyanogenMod 9 would seem to meet all my current needs for this phone, and is open source)

I have not seen a detailed "How to" guide to upgrade from stock Gingerbread 2.3.5 to CycnogenMod 9, rooting, and kernal install. Just parts of it scattered, a year old. Can someone guide me through this.

I just need a flexible stable everyday ICS level phone. I'm open to suggestions. Please remember, I have not done any of this before. Thank you.

Say I'm running MDK 4.2.2, I have a custom recovery installed, and then 4.3 comes out. Could I just wait for a dev to release their own flashable version of TouchWiz 4.3 with the unlocked bootloader and MDK baseband? Or would it not be the same as updating to 4.3 OTA (so, would the update not be as "good")? Sorry if this is a really noob question. :P Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
Never take an update from Samsung/Verizon. At least as long as we have developer support just wait for a flashable ROM to be released.

Now that we have a working implementation of ArcSoft MMS for the Himalaya, is there any chance of bringing the camera application over from a Universal? I understand that the camera hardware is different, but I presume the application works through some sort of device driver, which we obviously already have on the Himalaya WM5.

Alternatively, has anyone managed to get the camera app from WM2003SE working under WM5?

Now the MMS issue has been solved, this is the only other major reason remaining for my not upgrading. I already upgraded once, but the lack of support from the major software I use and these other two issues meant that the upgrade effectively crippled my device. Now software support is starting to trickle through, it's just these core applications which need solving.

WARNING! DO NOT INSTALL THE 'Camera2K5.cab' FILE POSTED BELOW BY johnney ON HIMALAYA DEVICES. IT WILL LOCK UP YOUR DEVICE! THE POSTER OF THIS FILE MISUNDERSTOOD THE QUESTION!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] grayhaze:
If you re-read my post, I wasn't suggesting the use of another driver for the camera, but rather the use of the one which is already there. I said the camera software probably interfaced with the camera through a device driver, so theoretically the software should be hardware independant.

@ Rayan,

It's better quality, at least we know what object we were recording at, lol.. i mean it has clearer output now, but I notice when saving it seems slower. Btw, what did you change, did you increase or decrease some of the value. thanks

regards,

ferioz
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] Rayan:
@ferioz

First of all, let me say that this patch was not created by me, I found it over at Buzz_Lightyear's website (www.buzzdev.net ).

Yeah, the saving part of the process takes much longer to complete, but (correct me if I'm wrong) I think it's because now we are saving the clip to ROM, not RAM. That is, when recording it caches the video to RAM and then transfers it to ROM or SD which is also slower than normal RAM.

Conclussion, better this than nothing right? :wink:

Peace!

So I was one of the unlucky ones who's Note 2 got hooked up with a sh-tty cable. So I ordered 4 random cables through Ebay, from cheap to somewhat more expensive, basically to test them out and see how fast they would charge the battery. Three of the cables had significantly lower stats (300-700), while one (cheap) cable scored quite a bit higher(1000).

To test your phone just hook it up to the charger and test with 'Galaxy Charging Current *lite*. I don't really know what the numbers mean, perhaps someone could enlighten me/rest of us.
