I'm trying Tmobile signal around town for a month. So here's what I want to do. I want to drive around town and see where I have HSPA, 3g signal. The phone tells me what signal its getting but I dont want to be taking my eyes of the road that often. So does anyone know of an app that will color in a map that will show you this data? Or one that will make a sound when signal is dropped. I just want to know what kind of signal I would get around town. Maybe a music streaming service that will stop playing when signal is lost. Any ideas?

Another concern I have is that I went to my uncles ranch this weekend and had no kind of signal. Ranch is about 15 mins out of town and about 200 yards away from a highway. As soon as I hit the highway I can get some signal, but not while in the ranch. I have a nexus 4 and don't know if another phone would have better signal.

I also just read straight talk has gotten 4g lte, would anyone recommend that. My son loves to watch the angry bird video clips, and I read somewhere that you couldn't stream any videos with straight talk.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Have you gone mad? What on earth possessed you to ERASE your bootloader?

I know there are various fastboot commands floating around here on XDA, but I'm fairly certain that none of them will ever suggest that you erase the bootloader.

[Edit:] Okay, maybe there is

I'm sorry to say, but there is no recovering from that one.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinmax:
so ... no to chance ?

my tablet was dead :( ehhh why i doing this i only wants to google store unroot on my tablet ehh... serious no way to install him firmware software ?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Here's the deal...

The tutorial you referenced was taken entirely out of context. Ignoring the fact that it was made for the 1st generation Kindle Fires in mind, it explicitly warned against erasing the bootloader because it would brick the device if the partition cannot be replaced. In the case of 2nd generation Kindle Fires, like the HD7, there is no working method for replacing the bootloader, therefore there is very little hope that you will ever recover it on your own.

There is a discussion in the KF2 forums about directly mounting the eMMC to your computer over USB and flashing the appropriate images, but based on your actions, it may be way beyond your level of experience.

Hey Guys,

In the moment i'm using the Cyanogenmod Jellytime Rom but it because it just reboots or powers down sometimes I wanted to install a new Rom, But it doesn't matter which rom I use, I can't activate wlan. I already tried ca. 10 different Roms and it is always the same. Can anybody help me or recommend a good working rom to me?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyInTheCorner:
Hi there :)

Sounds like a hardware issue to me. Have you checked all removable parts (especially the battery cover) have been attached properly? Which ROMS have you tried?

Running a RUU is always an option to try and see if its a ROM issue. If it is a hardware issue, then you'll have to go back to a state of S-ON and bootloader locked in order to send it to HTC for a warranty claim.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loyonyart:
Yes I already checked everything and attached it properly, too. I've tried Android open Kang Project, codefireX, Dirty Unicorn, Liquid Smooth, oxygen, PACman, revolution, Cyanogenmod 10.1, Cyanogenmod Nightlies.

Before trying the JellyTime rom I was using the orginal operating system and there were no sudden reboots or anything like that.

[Micromax A116] hitesh.soni890:
Hello All,

I just started to utilize the full potential of the Android community.

I wanted to start by flashing my Micromax Canvas HD A116 with the JB 4.2.1 update.

I proceeded to flash it, using the flashing tutorial on the xda forum itself.

I successfully managed to flash my phone, but after flashing on 4.2.1 update, I noticed the following problem.

Problem - First, the 4.2.1 JB update, did not have the camera app in the app drawer and if somehow the camera app is opened, I could only use the front camera of the phone, which was very irritating. :rolleyes:

Then I proceeded to root my device, and then install the 4.1.2 custom rom from xda itself. Since I hadnt made any backup on the stock rom.

Then I could manage to find the same problem on every 4.2.1 updated custom ROM.

And I mean, every custom ROM on the xda forum.

Is there any solution to this ? No rear camera on every update. :eek:

Also, suddenly, this 4.1.2 update is also becoming crummy. Am having the WiFi problem, where the wifi just stucks on 'Obtaining IP Address' and does not connect at all.

Please HELPP !!!!! :crying:

Regards,
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
why don't you flash to official 4.2.1 from http://www.moulnisky.com/index.php?dir=Micromax/A116/Software version/V3_270513(Jelly bean 4.2)/
[Micromax A116] hitesh.soni890:
Hello

Thats the first ROM that I flashed my phone with :)

Flashed it with 4.2.1 official updates, in the beginning.

Then, since I could not fix the camera, I had to root to flash the stock 4.1.2 ROM on my phone.

Thats when I tried the other 4.2.1 JB ROMs.
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
i can confirm that it is problem with your device's camera (hardware). It has nothing to do with ROM.
[Micromax A116] junaid992:
Same thing here no camera after 4.2.1 update so reverted back to 4.1.2 and tried re downloading the file but same problem exist....and i got news from service center that 4.2.1 has been scrapped from there ftp site due to some problem and told me that within 15 days there will be new update so better wait for a new version of 4.1.2 from sc.....
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:

I hope your camera problem might get resolved if your camera hardware is new.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] EternalAndroid:
Okay so my friend just bought my old T959V from me last night & the funny thing is he knows that TWiz is not where it's at, anyway he wants me to root & install CWM and a custom ROM. I ran into a few problems last night - I factory reset it to have a fresh start and once it booted back up the Wi-Fi wouldn't connect it would just hang at obtaining IP address. So I ignored it and tried connecting it to the computer to use the one click method, it worked but I can't grant anything permission because Wi-Fi won't connect so I can't download anything like root checker for example. Though I can still see the superuser app. Now for installing CWM, seeing as most of these threads for this phone are from 2010 & 2011 I've had a tough time finding a CWM recovery for this phone. EDIT: I managed to get some type of CWM running it's all red but whenever I try to wipe data/ factory reset/wipe cache & dalvik cache, I go to install zip from SD card selecting the ROM I transferred from my PC it says "install aborted." Does this everytime. I have a Nexus 4 running PA 3.99 RC1 & I don't remember Samsung phones being this difficult to get a custom ROM running on it. O.o. Oh and I also tried Odin which wouldn't even detect his phone with the proper drivers installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DickyG:
I might suggest that you use Heimdall to one-click back to stock Gingerbread. See: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21953878&postcount=2

After that, and while you still have Heimdall running, you can flash AntonX's Basic With A Twist Kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25115050&postcount=1

At this point you'll have rooted GB with CWM recovery.

You can go from there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] EternalAndroid:
Okay so now I have all the files downloaded but once i plug it into my computer it says USB device not recognized. ODIN wont detect it either, it keeps going into that red CWM recovery. That's the only issue, the CPU won't pick up the phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] atypicala:
Hi all....not a noob here, but nowhere near a dev, and I'm perplexed beyond reason here......

My phone was being all glitchy so I did a complete hard reset, flashed stock MDL ROM, flashed upgrade to MF9 (didn't want to wait for OTA), flashed cf autoroot then philz touch recovery and everything and was running great.

Then I went to flash CM10.2 and afterwards and didn't get a reboot, but didn't want to deal with the unrooting issue so I flashed a different kernel first (which I think may have been the problem.) I pulled the battery and attempted to reboot from being off. All hell breaks loose. It won't load no matter how I attempt a boot, (recovery, from "off") so I decided it may be best just to start the process over.

Odin flash back to stock MF9 thinking no biggie, then when I go to boot things get weird. No bootloop, but it takes awhile then boots but no "main screen" I have the status bar on the top, then when I go to shut down I can see the shut down menu, but nothing else. Blank face.

So....I'm totally lost at this point. I've tried stock kernel, stock ROMs, reboots galore, and I have no idea what component of the ROM is missing. I have no clue how to fix it!!!! Can someone more informed than I PLEASE help???

UPDATE - tried flashing crawjr's stock rooted odex - no dice. Still reboots through yellow logo to "blank" homescreen; I can hear touch sounds when I mess with the screen...it's like the ROM is running I just can't see it?

crawjr's ROM fixed after booting into recovery and factory reset. This can be deleted.

Oh i was assuming($575) the same but waiting for white. So how much is the total with TAX(if you don't mind).

[G2 General] burningembers:
My G2 was $540 on release day, as were some others that I've read about.

It supposedly has to do with the difference between the AT&T Next price and the Full Retail price, with the former needing to be price-adjusted by the rep, but most reps don't realize they need to or have to.

My reps never understand why I want to buy phones at full retail (I've bought like 5 or so in the last 6 months). It must not be common?
[G2 General] tdesbien31:
This.

Multiply the "Next" price by 20 and thats what you pay + tax for any phone in the store.

in this case its 27x20=540 + tax. The listed retail price is meaningless.

Whats really interesting is the new iPhone 5c is listed as $20 on Next pricing which would effectively mean it will only be $400 brand new, but their listed retail is like $549
[G2 General] kyler13:

[G2 General] whittikins:
I went into my AT&T store to buy it, but they would only sell it for $575, not $540. I asked them about the $540 price and price matching, etc. No go. Didn't buy!

I would have still paid $575 for this phone. It's that awesome. But I'd like to know why there are inconsistencies with the price. Even the display in the AT&T store shows $575.
[G2 General] CollinFX45:
I tried to get the $540 price and failed as well. I said "my friend got it for $540" (since you guys are all my friends :) ) but he said that is the NEXT pricing and I had to pay the $579. Oh well - I still think that's a great price for a device of this caliber and I am a happy owner.

[G2 General] greyhulk:
Yeah, it's still a great value, especially when you stack it up against the Note 3, iPhone 5s, and GS4. You get a lot of phone for the money.
[G2 General] Geekybiker:
I'm surprized more people don't do the buy on contract and just pay the ETF. I mean $199+$325 is only $525. Plus it looks like you only pay tax on the $199. Or maybe I'm missing something.
[G2 General] CollinFX45:
I thought about that too, but wanted to save my upgrade for whatever comes next. Also, it depends on which state you live in. In the lovely people's republic of California, we have to pay tax on the retail price regardless.

I just got upgraded to HTC One 3 months ago. So what will be the price in the store if i want to buy this at full price $540 or $579 ?

17489 Preston Rd

Dallas, 75252

[G2 General] yyhd:
Don't forget the $36 activation fee that comes with buying on contract.
[G2 General] Geekybiker:
Yah, I got that waived with mine, but it would still be cheaper after tax. I'm assuming of course you're not charged tax on the ETF. Check if you get att premier with your school or work. Its $25 off and no activation fee.
[G2 General] varunkumars:
OK. Thanks. I appreciate it.

Is this deal still going on ?

I am looking at the G2 over the Nexus 5 which will be $450 for the 32GB version. I need that 3,000mAh, not the small 2,300MaH battery in the N5.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unheady:
Hi,

I hope I can get some feedback if the following apps work on the G2.

1) Wave Control: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.MarksThinkTank.WaveControl

Does Wave Control work well enough I can use unlock/lock my phone with waving/gesture? I use this app a ton while driving too (other wave gestures).

2) FitBit: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fitbit.FitbitMobile

I want to know if the FitBip app will synch with their server end using the Bluetooth Low Energy connection of the LGG2. This would eliminate the need to only have my stuff synch when I'm near the dongle (which may be for a day or two)

As for my question, I was lead to believe that if you change the default launcher, that you lose the ability to Knock On/Off the device? Is that true? I use Nova, and, if this feature is removed when switching launchers...what has anyone else done to add similar functionality back to the device? I use wave control to unlock/lock my phone while driving, and in a jam/pinch I can use the Power Button (since it's on the side) of my _current_ device. If/When I get the G2, I realize this isnt the easiest to do (with my dock, at least). I hope to keep it mostly hands free (or the least amount of hand involvement) when driving, and would need to work around my "issue" some how.

Totally appreciate any feedback!

Cheers!

However, I don't think android recognize NTFS.

Is there a ROM that allows me to play 5-6 GB video files?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattbuffey:
Try the app Paragon NTFS. You should be able to mount an NTFS sdcard.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
It is possible if you upgrade to JB 4.1.2 firmware and use my SkyHigh kernel.

The kernel supports native automatic mounting of exFAT microsdcards and RW of USB-OTG thumb drive using the latest official Samsung exFAT drivers.

NTFS RW for USB-OTG is also supported, but you'll need an app such as "paragon" to auto mount. I haven't tested NTFS microsdcard though.

Have a read of the kernel thread Posts #1 to 3 and make up your own mind if the upgrade or any potential risk (no matter how tiny) is for you.

As per instructions, the kernel can be flashed via Odin, mobile Odin or a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP).

There is plenty of info about regarding P6800 DXMD3 firmware download and instructions to flash.

Up to you now to do your own research and decide what you need. ;)

Good luck. :)

You renamed the file "firmware.zip" (no quotes) right? Or else changed the command syntax to match the actual file name (as its not actually "firmware.zip" when you download it).
