[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
The number of clicks needed to change settings is a well-known issue, though the need to change settings is probably a lot less than you think it is. Unlike Android, WP8 is smart enough to turn off stuff like the GPS, and put the Bluetooth and WiFi into extremely low-power modes, when they aren't being used. I see no battery difference whether I leave them on (but inactive) or not.

Assuming you weren't doing something dumb like expecting the battery to last all day while you played games, you have a defective phone. Mine will go over 3 *weeks* if left idle in Battery Saver mode. That's without using Airplane Mode too, just Battery Saver. Battery loss is less than 5% for an entire day in that mode.

No, Live Tiles do not take gigabytes. It's highly unlikely they even take megabytes per day, in most cases. Some will, but not many. A typical tile push is tens of kilobytes, no more.

I have 4 tabs open constantly and hit 6 pretty often; I have literally never seen a message about memory after having the phone for months. Admittedly, my phone has 2x the RAM of yours; assuming you have the 520 like this thread is about, you got one of the lowest-end WP8 devices that exists.

Your optimization claim is absurd; even if you were using the same hardware on both platforms (which I'm pretty sure you weren't), I really doubt you have any real idea how to test how well an app is optimized.

I have several Ebook reader apps, at least one of which supports all the formats I've tried so far (I don't use the others anymore). You aren't looking very hard if you can't find them. As for video, VLC is coming.

I'm not sure what sort of file management you're trying to do on the device, since even using a PC there isn't much you can do, but... yeah. There isn't much you can do. Well, without hacks (which we don't have for the Lumias yet).

It should be possible to save received songs to your library - I know it is with photos - but it doesn't happen automatically.

As for item #10, that's a case of know what you're buying. Not our fault you didn't read the ads more closely. I mean, I sympathize, but I'm also rolling my eyes. "Know what you're buying" is rule number one of being a smart customer. That goes for most of this list, actually.

I have no particular problem with the built-in music player, but there are plenty of alternatives, some of which are linked to right here on XDA...

Orientation lock is coming in the next update. Known complaint, though it's never bothered me.

Your number 14 is meaningless; WP8 has features that both Android and iOS lack, just as both of them have features that both of the other two major platforms lack. That's the way the world works.

The need for Win8 for app development is annoying, yes. I mean, I have Win8 at home, so that's no problem, but it's an annoying restriction. Technically I think you actually can run the compiler on Win7, it's just the other tools (emulator in particular) that need Win8.

Just use auto-brightness; at least on my phone the dimmest level (i.e. in a dark room) which the automatic mode goes to is much dimmer than the manual "dim" mode.

The customization stuff has been missing since WP7 and I don't think that it is going to change. It was nice when it was available on fully unlocked (essentially flashing a custom rom for WP) devices

I have lumia 520 . been with android since day 1 .got it to try out windows phone 8. I actually love it . for the price $99 no contract . compared to other phones in its price range with no contract its the best phone there is . people that are buying it just need to remember theres no flash and front facing camera . then again even on my android I have never use those features .

If your coming from android check to make sure windows phone 8 has the app you want . also if your coming from a once flag ship android phone to this you will be disappointed . go and get a flagship wp8 phone and you'll be happy . as for the os took awhile to get use to . I'll be soon getting a high end wp8 phone :).

I personally enjoy the phone. I am using it as a GoPhone and got it for $99 which is a steal. Unfortunately it's only available in black but the shell's can be purchased online for around $12.99. Coming from Android I am not too disappointed. Wish I had a bit more freedom though.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matteo Mazzu:
Hi, I'm on PA 3.99 rom and I'd like to install Purity Rom, but it's required a full wipe. My recovery is TWRP, so for a full wipe I need to wipe cache, dalvink cache, system and factory, right? Internal and External card isn't necessary, right? Because It will erase the Purity zip in my memory and I won't be able to installed. If possible I'd like a clear response, so I'd finally understand what to do exactly with no more worries. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
That's correct, cache, dalvik cache, data and system. Your external sd and internal sd should be untouched.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
A factory reset in recovery wipes /cache and /data ... the dalvik cache resides on the data partition and is thusly wiped also.

You could wipe /system to be "thorough" ... but the Rom zip.should have a format /system line in the updater script.

I only ever do a factory reset between roms.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mattyboii87:
I am having the exact same problem..

The only way I can get any service to my I9300 is to downgrade to ICS, flash Ariza Patch 0.5 and then delete my efs folder contents and copy and paste from my backup. When I upgrade to JB 4.1.2 I get no service/emergency calls only. I have tried flashing many modems/basebands and still no service. I have tried restoring efs backups in a few different ways e.g copy and pasting using a root explorer, restoring via recovery, restoring via Ktool. Still the same issue. I have also tried using Ariza Patch but this removes my baseband and seems to make the issue worse. Please has anyone got any ideas?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AithePanda:
I ended up going from having a ROM that was missing features and I ended up having nothing but, recovery (ClockWorkMod) and the bootloader.

I would also like to include that my computer doesn't show HTC One or Mass Storage anymore though it shows up under the Device Manager settings when on Fastboot. De-bug is disabled, I don't have a rom to enable it so there goes that.

I do have a TWRP backup but I have no idea how to push it to the phone since debugging isn't enabled, adb cannot find device and fastboot knows that the phone is connected but fails when transfering, mostly when I try to flash a ROM into it.

In summary, HTC One only has access to bootloader, ClockWorkMod, no debug, no rom, clean storage.

I don't care what rom I have to install, if anyone can help as fast as possible I need it for work.

Also when I try adb sideload rom*.zip (error: device not found) shows up.

Thanks in advance.

I'm desperate to the point where all I want is to access whatever ROM is compatible with my HTC One, I'm glad to post any other info.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
My other halves note 2 stopped charging recently. Thinking about replacing the charging port since it was already having problems (port seemed loose/intermittent not charging/angle the USB cable a certain way to charge). No warranty since phone is cracked and phone is bone stock down to the launcher.

However, I'm noticing each version has their own model number stamped inside. Is it critical to get the same model branded port or will the international models port be fine?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
That part should be uniform. Only real difference between some of the models is cpu and wireless i believe

Edit: Im wrong
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] watchsat:
No, they got different parts on the market, you have to get the right one...

The model i317 has LTE antenna (3 pins Antenna connectors), and the model N7100 didn't come with LTE port (2 pins Antenna connectors).

Cheers,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
Thats not on the daughter USB board though is it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] watchsat:
On the daughter board have antenna connectors, and the "real" Antenna are on the Loud speaker module...

Samsung also selling different Loud speaker modules because of that, and you can't tell the difference just look from outside.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
I just looked... He's right. The antenna connects to the charging port... and sure enough 2 on the international and 3 on the lte.

Bottom right of the board
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] watchsat:
You can compare the difference from both pictures on the auctions:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
On original note you also have to get the correct "Rev". Its white print on the board. Rev 2.0 rev 3.0 etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
Well hopefully it's correct because I already ordered and it's being shipped. Will tackle this Monday when I receive the part. I did get the i317 and I believe they are all Rev0.7 for the i317
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
Yeah, me too. I was changing the screen on ny note 2 last night so I checked mine. It was rev .8.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
Ended up being the same exact charging port, so that was good. Installation was a breeze!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
Maybe you know where the gps antenna is. After my screen swap, my gps won't lock. Before, it was exceptionally fast to lock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
No, I didn't really look that close. But I would take it apart and see if you left anything loose. How hard was the screen swap. Is it just a few screws and the board comes off? That note needs a new screen...and plastic housing lol...its beat to **** but still works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
The screen is attached to the midframe, so you pull it apart like your picture, then remove the mainboard and move it to the new midframe, connect everything, test, then complete the assembly. Pretty easy.

Don't even consider just changing the glass -- its impossible without a special machine.

$185 from ebay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
Nah, I wouldn't just do a glass...I'd swap the entire unit. I know better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] motion61:
Stumped

I bought a replacement charging port for my sgh-i317m note 2 on ebay. it has the same rev 0.7 . I replaced it because the original terminal for the speaker had broke off. So installed the one from ebay , now I have no sound and no network after reboot and hard reset . I then put the original back in with a half ass solder joint. everything worked . I'm thinking the replacement I bought is junk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] oxendine9381:
3 Charging Ports for this model and none of them work

I bought 3 seperate ones and they all charge the phone but the sound, haptic feedback and cell signal do not work. All of them are sgh-i317 and the revision is 0.7. The only difference is the numbers under it. I don't know if they are lot numbers but I am having this issue and all the items are virtually the same except for this. Original is "R.C94(KH)24". The others are "R.CA3(KH)34", "R.CA4(KH)2", and "R.CB2(KH)38". Are these lot numbers or are they insignificant. I'm thinking I might try the SGH-T889 equivalent because the board on the phone has both codes for ATT...any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] anmac1789@gmail.com:
The green LED light doesn't light up when I have my note 2 plugged in and charging. The phone doesn't even turn of when I try to turn on my note 2. I also tried replacing the battery. I cannot go into safe mode or do a hard reset/soft reset because the phone doesn't even charge. Before, my original charging port was charging but I had to position the wire and hold it in a different position which I couldn't use my phone. Then i replaced that broken up/degreded charging port with my brother's note 2 and it worked. Now the charging port doesn't work when I swapped it from my brothers note 2. What should I do ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] a-raccoon:
I can't find any other threads or websites that discuss the GSM/LTE antenna port on the USB daughterboard. I believe there is a pinout on the USB connector to attach an external antenna to the phone, but it's not documented anywhere that I can find. Would anyone with a daughterboard handy care to examine and probe the USB pins and the antenna port leads for continuity, so I can make my own external antenna adapter?

S110 MMS stuck in outbox

Same problem is occurring with my phone. My S110 did manage to recieve an MMS but just tried to send one and it just got stuck in the outbox. The phone then froze when I tried to go back into messaging. Someone then sent me an MMS the next day and it would not download. Wonder if it is something to do with the MMS settings, ie under the connect to drop down menu. Mine seemeed to be on connect to ' my workplace' as default. Other peopl;e have had similar problems on other networks ( on a google search) and replies have stated that they should have an option in the drop down menu connect to 'orange MMS'. It seems that with O2 I only have the options internet, Wap, Secure WAP network, but nothing stating MMS or O2. Have the cab file installed and have an O2 MMSC server on the servers tab. Also heard that you should put an '/' on the end of the address on tthe server? does anyone have any input on these points as it would be very helpful if someone it works for can tell me how their phone is setup with regards to these particular aspects.

Many thanks in advance for help.

Hello, I need a help with this script. I would like to use both features - extend internal storage and extend RAM too. I would like to use it with one of these three ROMs, but it does not work fully. I created fat32, ext4 (primary) and SWAP (primary) partitions, flashed these ROMs and finally flashed the script. The storage extension works without problems, but I can't get to work the RAM extension. During flashing there is a message that SWAP was created succesfully, but it is not. There is always the default RAM size :( Do you know how to get it work with one of these ROMs, please?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MeltingSnowman:
Obiviously SWAP partition can not be considered by the system as an extenction because it's only a separate partition in wich the system can store part of ram files IF the ram begin to get full. The ram it's a chip built on the board itself and SWAP partition is just a partition created into your sd card and also it's only a matter of software and not hardware. If you need more information google about "linix swap partition". If all the rom you installed booted fine that means that they were working completly fine.

P.S. That kernel patcher uses the internal memory of the phone as a swap partition so you don't need to create one on your sd card. Also swap destroy sd card.

P.P.S. WRONG SECTION!!!

Yeah, you're right. I downloaded Disk Info app and now I can see the Swap works fine.
