[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wudien:
Atrix' have been selling on craiglists near me for 90 dollars and thats a steal. If I had more money atm I would buy them and resell them for at least 130. Atrix is a solid phone. AND a Jelly Bean 4.2.2 rom available that I use as a daily driver.

Galaxy S II is also a great choice, though if you are in the US there are like 3 versions and some have better battery life than others, and varying features. would play ~ 140

For real cheap a Lumia 520 (Windows Phone 8) has been bouncing around the internet as a $85 go-phone.

Here is a link to a Lumia 520 phone for $85 and free shipping.

my device is is rooted so i already have that.. i have tried to install boot animations and then i reboot the device and it doesnt work.. ive searched on youtube for videos and havent been successful so can someone please help me from the start? thanks:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] upndwn4par:
What thread did you get your boot animations from?

Flashable zips or pushed with a file explorer?

What firmware are you on as well?

i got the boot animation from omega.. the app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wahlmart:
when im in recovery mode i only get 6 options... reboot system now, apply system update from ADB, apply update from external storage, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partiation, and apply update from cache.. idk what to do...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] upndwn4par:
Sounds like you have a stock recovery installed so you can't flash anything. If you are on the MDL firmware install a custom recovery from Goo Manager. If you are on MF3 you can't install a custom recovery and can't flash anything.

From MF3 you can copy and paste from a root level file explorer. Use extreme caution since there is no firmware available to flash with Odin should you get yourself in trouble.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wahlmart:
I'm sorryi have no coy how to get a custom recovery. . Do I need me computer to get a new custom recovery? What is the mdl and mf3? Sorry im new to all this stuff
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
I suggest finding out what firmware you have first, then reading as much as possible about custom recoveries and the like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Alvie03:
Download goomanager and under settings select install openrecoveryscript after it installs it should ask you if you want to reboot into recovery (TWRP). Your should also research TWRP before doing this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
Jeezus! Does no one listen to me? OP has not even specified what firmware he is on... That could lead to a bricked phone. There is more important stuff to figure out first. OP is obviously new at this and needs to read up on the more important stuff before messing with anything else, including system files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wahlmart:
when i go to settings on goomanager, there is no "open recovery" I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME FROM THE START AGAIN CAUSE I DO NOT WANT A BRICKED PHONE.... Please text me idc if i put number on here... 559-313-2489 or private message me how to do this.. .thanks:good:

Ok Stop DO NOT FLASH anything my friend, First Thing you need to do go to your settings on phone then go to where it say's "More" it's on top the right hand

corner then on the very bottom You will see it Say About device click that see where it says Baseband version tell us what it say there then we can tell you if you

Good job, not knowing what firmware he's on you could have caused him to brick his device. Listen to graydiggy, he knows what he's taking about.

Edit, didn't see the second page of the posts so I'm late to the party but my comments still stand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Alvie03:
My bad. I did suggest researching TWRP before doing anything though. Regardless, I apologize.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wahlmart:
Hey woild you be able to help instead cause no one has gotten back to me yet and its been like 6 hours since I tried getting help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Ok, if I understand, you want to flash roms? Do you know what firmware you are on?

Edit, sorry, just read the thread. You want to install a boot animation. To do that you're going to have to edit the rom or create a zip that does that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wahlmart:
Well I just want to be able to customize boot animations and get cyanogen mod etc so I can have a flush phone.. if flashing is easier then yes I do want to flash
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] deron37129:
Well u cant flash your phone and anybody chime in and correct me but since we dnt have custom recovery you may not b abke to flash the necessary file for that

He's on mdl.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] deron37129:
My apologies ignored what I said then
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
This thread is going south...

OP, I am not going to give you the exact answers, but I will give you tips. We encourage reading and doing on one's own.

To stop the OTA process, search in Google 'how to stop mf3 OTA AT&T Galaxy S4'. I assume you have root.

To install TWRP, just follow what was previously stated here in this thread. When in goo manager, hit the menu button and then hit install OpenRecoveryScript.

To install CM, make sure you take a nandroid backup of the device. That way you can restore. Then go to the thread of CM and follow the OP there.

I suggest reading a bit before you start flashing ROMs, though. You need to know about things like Loki. That can be found in the stickies in the general section.

Good luck. :beer:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] angrypony:
BT speed dial with iTech Clip S (Stereo A2DP) does not work properly with default Voice Speed Dial application on Universal.

After pairing clip with Universal if I press the call button on the clip it will automatically invoke voice speed dial app and will successfully recognize commands. After that the call button does not work. Redial and simply calling work great with the clip still. Its just the voice dialling...

Did anyone have similar problems with other headsets or iTech clip?

A2DP does not work either :( Really disappointing

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JQuacker:
Hey, my wife has the xperia tl, completely stock, and upgraded to latest update. Recently, the push notifications for text messages have stopped, so she doesn't know that she has any texts unless she opens the stock texting app (she doesn't use non-stock texting app). All the settings in the texting app are correct, and I've spent some time on Google, but can't find anything. So, asking for help on this.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I am not sure if I understand you correctly with "push notifications". But if your wife's phone has Extended Standby function enabled, reminder notifications are actually not working.

You may consider giving Smart Notify a try (Google Play).
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JQuacker:
No status bar notification, no indication at all that a new text has come. Facebook and email notifications work fine.

Extended standby is not enabled. Smart Notify, even with correct settings, does not alleviate the problem. Other ideas?

this is very good case, you can tell that the moment you touch its very good quality leather material. I know that case will last for a long time.

Where is the backup file for CWM?

Normally I would find it on the SD card/clockworkmod/backup. It might be there but I do not see it. Is it hidden?

How do I get to see hidden files on a rooted tabelt?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] cyaclone:
Still have not been able to locate it on the Nexus itself even using X-plore, so is there a way to find on the unit?

I did find the backups using ROM Manager and was able to download them to my PC doing the following:

The ROM Manager app has an option in the Manage and Restore Backups to Download Backups. You might want to try using it to create backups and download those backups to your computer.

Choose Download Backups and you will see:

Provided your phone and your computer are logged into the same network you can point your browser to the address shown on the screen and choose which of the backups you would like to transfer to your computer.

It will take a while depending on the size of the backup. It is downloaded as a zip file.

This may be a feature of the Pro Version, which I have, but the Pro version is worth every penny.:o

Did anyone order one of these from Amazon and actually have it ship?

http://www.amazon.com/Caseology-Goo...aseology+Google+Nexus+7+FHD+2nd+Gen+Case+2013

I ordered 2 of them (1 orange, 1 black) back on August 20th when they were on sale at Amazon for a penny apiece plus $3.98 shipping. They were supposed to ship yesterday. Yesterday I received a ship confirm email with tracking number. At around 2:30am this morning, I received an email saying my order was to be refunded and the item was out of stock. I checked the tracking number provided in the first email and it appeared to be bogus. I emailed the seller back asking what the deal was and they stated:

"Your order was processed prior to knowledge of the out of stock issue, which is why you received a confirmation email. Please disregard the confirmation details as we cannot fulfill your purchase at this time."

Seems suspect to me. Just wanted to see if anyone else ordered these and actually has them on the way.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] nightang3l:
Just a few warning they take a long time to ship order mine on Friday came one week later on Saturday and about the case it is really stiff. It's so stiff it can barely go to the lowest stance position and be careful of the inner bottom left clip because it clamps on hard. It nearly tore the back of my Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] ItsLunchBOX:
I ordered mine on the 20th of August and looks like I am never receiving it. At least someone got one from them.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] nightang3l:
When I ordered mine it was 1 cent and 3.99 shipping. I stop using mine when I notice it clamp on tightly on the inner bottom corner which is stupid because you have to take it off to use the stance.

I have a HTC One X (International), I am using This ROM

Im just getting used to modding and tweaking android, so im still a noob and im just doing stuff to improve my general android knowledge..

Basically i want to swap the camera shutter sound, i saved a new sound as camera_click.ogg and added it to system->media->audio->ui an replaced the old sound with my new one but it still plays the original sound.

I then opened the APK in APKtools and there are sound files in there so i swapped that camera_click with my new sound recompiled put back on my phone, when i open the camera it comes on for a second then comes up with "the application has stopped unexpectedly" and will no reopen.

so what am i doing wrong? why does swapping an audio file with the same name in the same format kill the app????

[LG Optimus G (International)] Nickoro:
I have an LS970 and I recently dropped it pretty hard onto a desk. The bottom quarter of the screen stopped working after the drop along with the capacitive touch buttons at the bottom. I was able to deal with this but today when I sat on the couch my phone fell again and a crack went down the middle of the digitizer. Now only some areas work and I am not able to unlock it. Before I buy a new digitizer and lcd I want to know if it could have also been main board issues that made the bottom part of the screen not work since no cracks appeared after dropping it on a desk. Thanks

EDIT: I realized that this is the wrong section to post this so I made a thread in the correct Sprint section. If the mods could delete this thread that would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aznedy:
Hello All,

I've recently broken my LCD, not cracked, but the contrast material leaked into the screen, eventually turning everything black. I can still use the digitizer, but have no concept what's going on screen. Let's just say, I've been luck and unlucky. My though was to use a screen viewing tool via adb to grab some phone numbers of recent calls/texts before I send to Samsung for repair (the phone agent said they would wipe it back to stock). What I have been trying to do is enable ADB/USB debugging through recovery.

Here's what I've tried so far:

1) Boot to recovery

2) Mount /system as rw

3) pull default.proc and build.proc from their respective directories

4) add the following lines to each

persist.service.adb.enable=1
persist.service.debuggable=1
persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb (this line was already located in the default.proc file)

5) push files back to their respective directories

6) reboot

Upon reboot, I'm stuck in a loop. I can't tell what's going on, how far it's getting etc because no display. I assume I'm getting past the initial splash screen because I feel the initial power on vib, and then another short vibe, followed by a long-ish pause, and a reboot (I assume), another power up vib, and another short vib. If I leave connected to USB during this sequence, The PC tries to install the MTP driver, but then fails when it reboots.

I've got to admit, I'm somewhat of a noob when it comes to this device. I don't understand it as well as some of the other handsets I've had. I'm sure I've made a mistake someplace and would greatly appreciate any help/insight you could offer.

Best Regards :)

I have the same problems, but usb debug disabled, (xplay vivo 510w)

touch pad have key sounds, seems only display cracked.

is there any way to enable usb debugging?

Some possible way:

1. Engineering code to enable usb debugging

2. Any setting screen snaps to enable usb debugging (developers option)

3. reboot to recovery mode (dangerous to data? )

4. Flash ROM (unfamily & not prefer)

Thanks for any help~!

Black Screen but phone appears to function, need to enable debugging

My phone is broken. Screen cracked and black so I assume the digitizer is also broken. I'd like to access the phone through my laptop so I can view the several important apps I have on there.

I have the HTC One X+ from ATT. The other day I unlocked the bootloader and rooted the device and have TWRC installed. I was trying to get cyanogenmod and placed the correct zip file for that and gapps on my phone but was having trouble getting my computer to recognize the phone when trying to flash boot.img. For some reason it wasnt going well and I tried to restore... and basically I am at the same point where the phone can start to boot but gets stuck at the htc one screen. I have already tried wiping and restoring and all of that. So at this point I installed the htc driver on my computer which I thought worked but my computer still isnt recognizing the phone in twrp. I have been trying to sideload any rom at this point but I cant do the ADB commands because my computer will not recognize the phone.

I would greatly appreciate your help!

Ok folks, I found the answer. It's here http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=27614&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

Mamaich has answered it as follows:

"I'll copy here the other my post.

The main reason for battery draining in my case was that buttons are not locked when the phone is turned off. So it constantly turns on when it is in pocket. To fix this - take following files from 1.40 ROM:

Backlight.exe

ButtonLock.exe

CSDType.exe

DIM.exe

Keyboard.exe

MicrophoneAGC.exe

WLanMgr.exe

MyCPL.cpl

and copy to \Windows folder on your device. Windows would cry that files are unsigned - say "yes", then reboot. You'll be able to turn keyboard backlight off, lock buttons, change GPRS class, but you cannot change brightness. The sliders are ignored. They are ignored even if you'll take driver from the WM2003 OS.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tele_jas:
When I switched from an iPhone to an Android, I went into my contacts and sync'd them with my main Google account (Don't remember how, but I do remember it was very easy). Then when I got my Android, when I signed in with my main gmail account for the first time, all my contacts were there (even the pics I had taken and assigned to my iPhone account).

I was recently (6 months ago) "between Androids" and had to use my wife's old iPhone 3G for about a week... I set the contacts to sync with Google and they were all imported in to my iPhone.
