To remove the tampered tag and have it say "locked" instead of "relocked" you must S-off.

I don't know why you couldn't boot after flashing the ota.zip from recovery and flashing boot img from hboot as it should boot up.

To use most fastboot commands, you need to be unlocked. The command is "fastboot flash boot boot.img" be sure to have that boot part in there. "Fastboot flash boot.img" will just not work. If you forget the "flash" part, it will just temporarily boot that boot.img once.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phantomsniper773:
Hi guys,

First of all, I'm a GSM user running the latest OTA stock ROM and Baseband.

So I've been making more calls lately, and I keep getting complaints from people saying my voice is unclear and breaking up on them. I decided to do some experimenting, and have come to the conclusion that it is not my SIM, phone's mic, ROM, or the other person's problem.

I've noticed, when calling from my Razr M to another phone (let's call it Phone2), if I set Phone2 to mute, then my voice is heard perfectly fine on Phone2. If it's not muted, then Phone2 can barely hear what I am saying from my Razr M. The whole time, anything the person says into Phone2 is heard crystal-clear on my Razr M

I know it's not my SIM card is because I just went to the AT&T store today and replaced it

I know it's not the mic is because if I use GrooVe IP to place the call via VoIP, everything is heard fine on both ends

I know it's not the other person is because I've had at least 4 different people tell me they can barely hear me on their phones, and I've tested it myself by calling the other phones in my AT&T family plan, and my landline, and the issue still occurs.

I found that changing

persist.audio.mic=digital

to "analog" instead, helps a little because it makes the voice louder, but it doesn't help with the audio breaking up.

Reverting back to the older baseband (the one that is included in Matt's Utility 1.20) doesn't make a difference.

Does anyone else have similar experiences? Ideas for me to try? I'm especially curious to hear from other GSM users.
[HTC One X+] Stardust71:
Hi,

just wondering: Seems that all custom roms are using this. Couldn't find it in the RUU post though, and also on HTC dev there's no official download yet. So, where can it be found?
[HTC One X+] kingofnice:
No where yet. Roms right now are based from dumps or ota merges.
[General Questions and Answers] PiERiT:
Here's an odd one. I have two HTC Evo 3D CDMA phones, both with CyanogenMod 10.1. One works perfectly fine. The other cannot place calls, send texts, or use data. When making a call, I get an automated voice that says "Error 16", and when trying to send a text, it tries for a couple minutes and eventually fails. The PRI and baseband are the same on both; the PRL is different.

I searched around a bit, and all I could find was to call Sprint. Ting is my provider, so I called them and they asked me to do a ##number# thing, which does not work with CM's dialer. Next they suggested a profile update, which is also absent in CM. I even went as far as flashing a Sense-based ROM, doing those things (at which point the phone worked fine), then re-flashing CM, but it goes back to Error 16.

Any ideas? I cannot fathom why one phone would work and one would not when everything aside from the PRL is identical. Could that be the cause? If it is, I think I'm out of luck, because for one reason or another I've never been able to change the PRL on this particular phone. I go through the process with QPST, and everything seems to go fine, but upon reboot the PRL has not changed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings to Friends

A few days ago in xperiablog

get to share with your friends

Although is very easy

But I will give a simple video tutorial

First, the software VRoot Download the attachment to this post

Or from the manufacturer's site

http://www.mgyun.com/vroot

​

1 - Install drivers for your phone

2 - Activate the option in your phone Enabled usb debugging

Settings / Developer options

3 - After opening the software and USB cable to connect your phone

Hey Friends Just wanted to understand this I/O SCHEDULER thing in No-Frills CPU Control. I mean I understand how the governors help but I dnt get the importance of I/O scheduler. Also all devs talk about Governors and Clock Speed when it comes to performance.

Tried to read few articles but all too scientific.

Can some1 pls explain the various schedulers and their uses in simple language?

Sent from my Xperia GT-S5830
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rapkiller91:
An I/O scheduler is an algorithm/metod that define how to manage input/output on memories(SSD,SD). Each scheduler has a different management of queues of reading/writing and there are some schedulers that could improve performance because they are optimized for Solid State Disks and with a good scheduler you can decrease the CPU load and increase battery duration.

The default android scheduler is NOOP and it's optimized for SSD and is more battery friendly than others. There are other good schedulers as SIO,ZEN and Deadline.

There isn't a better scheduler: it depends on the way you use the phone!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakzone:
Hello, what kind of answer would you expect in the s4 forum, I suppose the same as what you would get in an iphone forum :p

If you want an excellent camera that's great in low light you actually need a full-frame dslr camera.

With regards to the resale value you would probably be better off with the iphone, you know how people go bonkers about it and forget that there are about a dozen or so manufacturers who offer the same or better products in terms of design and usability. You could also consider the HTC one and the upcoming LG G2. If you are happy with a 4'' screen you can get an entry level phone which would get the job done just fine or go for something second hand like the htc sensation. It is a good phone for a fraction of the money. Make sure that you have considered all your options.

My assumption is that by galaxy nexus 4 you mean s4 google edition, hope this helps

Well let's see battery management in ios is better than android . What i also like about apple is that they have one universal version of their devices whether the iphone / ipad . I also like the fact that they keep on updating their product - they are starting to software cripple some features though - while Samsung is failing in this domain .i guess only the nexus line up in the android world provides fast updates , i'm on 4.3 on the nexus 7 while still on 4.2 with the s4 .

Concerning the camera i did notice a superior picture quality using the new ipad versus the samsung camera app . But when i switched to the Google edition camera found on this forum , i can say that they are on par with each other , so probably and hopefully this is a software issue which could be work out in later development cycles .

it's simple ios gives the best and easiest out of the box user experience , but this is why you cannot say let's compare android & ios while disregarding the power of tweaking / moding /roming the android has . Being a control freak apple loses this edge to any rooted android device which owner is willing to spend some time customizing .

Being stock non-rooted I have done way more I can possibly imagine on this phone than an iPhone would be cabaple of ever doing. Sure I would love some features that the iPhone has on this phone and a better frame on this phone instead of it being plastic plus the iPhone headphones are way better in my opinion but I guess its sacrifices from apple sueing the piss out of Samsung again.
