I was able to use the ViperBoy ROM to stay on GSM with the advent of 4.3 official release I am wondering if the newer ROMS based the Sprint release will cater to GSM w/data cause its quite a bother not benefiting from the other perks
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tazdeviloo7:
I'm using the "Stock with Goodies" ROM successfully on Vodafone in Spain. The OP is mentioning all AOSP rom's that don't work with a SIM card. Any sense based ROM will work(such as Viper). The only AOSP type ROM that I managed to pick up any signal on was the GE Nocturnal ROM after flashing this zip, https://mega.co.nz/#!dgdmFQbb!ZXw8Q18FwMU0Xn_t3_Prp2dcd9Fn01pdR5s3Ha-_TaI . This GSM patch was very alpha, it had numerous telephony.db force closes and disconnects frequently. The DEV for GEnocturnal said he would try to make the next 4.3 based GE rom internationally compatible so that's our best hope for using stock Android as of yet.

There's a guy using the CM 10.2 rom I built in the android dev forum. I don't know how it's working but it's working for him. He has voice and h+ Data just the signal bars don't show the correct signal.

That's really interesting. I am using a Sense ROM with an international carrier and I get only GSM in data. Can you help me get 3G/H sign??

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdourado:
Hello,

I need some insights from Android users...

I was wondering...

WIth my iPhone, I have my iTunes full backup. If I upgrade my phone to a new one, I just connect my old phone to the Macbook, do a full backup, connect the new phone, do a full restore, and my new phone has everything there.

My contacts, SMS messages, Settings, Pictures, Camera Roll, Apps, App data like save games and progress on games, you get it.

How is it on android?

Suppose I have a Galaxy S4 I have been using for a few months. I have it set up, I have SMS messages on it, data, emails, I have 80% of angry birds complete, I have 2000 pictures on my camera roll, i have some MP3 music...

Then I upgrade to a Note 3. Is there a way to transfer all my data to the new android without losing it? Like I can on Apple?

Thanks for your insight.

Cheers!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cvmg:
Download Rom toolbox from the store, when installed go to the Apps Admin module of Toolbox, then swipe to right and you will find the backup module; there try the backup phone data option and it will show you the different backup options it do, when it finishes, return to the main page of Apps Admin module, and press the menu key to show the preferences of the toolbox app, and there will show you the carpet in your phone where the backup is.

To restore it on the new phone you have to install the Toolbox app in it first, then check in which folder the backup is going to be stored, so you have to copy the folder of the old phone into that exact location of the new phone, so you can do a restore of it in Toolbox app. Sorry for my English but is not my first language, this is the best method I know, there could be others. cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sangalaxy:
with the apps as he mentioned you can try rom tool box or any apps like that and for message contacts etc you can use kies for Samsung or softwares like that google
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
For contacts and email I have them on my Google account so they will automatically sync to the new device. For texts I use SMS Backup & Restore and back them up to my SD card. I keep pictures and music on my SD card so I just move the card over to the new device. But many devices don't have SD cards these days so you could just plug both phones into a computer and copy/paste files from the old phone over to the new one.

For app data you'll have to be rooted and I use Titanium backup. It can either backup to the SD card or sync to a cloud account.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kahun:
Hello xda,

I have two devices one is HTC One and other is HTC One X,

HTC One has stock ROM, TWRP Recovery and "ARHD 12/13 (JB 4.2.2, Base 2.24.401.1, Sense 5.0) NFC while screenoff & on lockscreen & unlocked: NfcMod-HTCOne-ARHD-screenoff+lockscreen-v2.0.apk"

HTC One X has custom MaximusHD Rom with CWM Recovery and "ARHD 12/13 (JB 4.2.2, Base 2.24.401.1, Sense 5.0) NFC while screenoff & on lockscreen & unlocked: NfcMod-HTCOne-ARHD-screenoff+lockscreen-v2.0.apk"

I followed all instructions on this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2391759

The NFC works fine, unlocking and locking it, but when I unlock it with NFC and press home button then after 1 second I press it again the device locks itself, and the NFC unlock stops working.

But when I unlock it normally the nfc unlock starts working again and i can lock it and unlock it with nfc if i don't press the home button.

Has anyone had this glitch? It only messes up when I use the home button, when I use the back button to get to menu or blinkfeed everything works fine.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moosterly:
Hi all,

I recently picked up the 2.0MHL to HDMI cable along with a Bluetooth mouse and Bluetooth (what appears to be Apples style) keyboard to use with my S4. So far I'm enjoying the experience in terms of uses and navigating relatively easily through the phone. Currently using NOVA as my launcher. Volume, home button, back buttons were easy to figure out. Accessing the multi-window, recent apps/task killer is not a problem. I can't however, for the life of me figure out how to access the MENU button via. the keyboard or mouse. I've done various searches and YouTube videos online and people mention how the right click doesn't access the menu but neglect to mention how to ACTUALLY access the menu. I did see 1 video where it mentioned Control P but when I had tried that, it was a shortcut to select either music player or Google play. Has anyone else had this problem? Any luck with finding the right short key? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] civicman76:
I know this is a late reply to your question, but maybe I can help. I bought a mini bluetooth keyboard designed to use with windows, and for a while I had the same problem. I. could access everything on my S3 except the menu. I searched, found your post, then started randomly trying different buttons. I'm not sure if your board has this key, but it's between the right Alt and Ctrl keys, it looks like a square with an arrow pointing inside it. That`s the menu button on mine. Hope this help, and sorry for the long reply.

Awesome I don't have to delete my TWRP backups! :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
Too many features !!

Seriously, reading about all the stuff in this has me excited and also overwhelmed. I think the sd card migration support for /0 is the killer feature though. If I'm switching between a TW and AOSP rom, that's needed, right? Otherwise the sd card won't be visible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon36:
If you guys run into any problems let me know I've tried almost everything and it all seems OK.

I got a "failed" while trying to flash in TWRP.

Not sure why, but trying to download again and going to flash.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon36:
Does it give any type of error or does it just say failed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Obaterista93:
I had an issue Restoring a backup that was made using this recovery. It backed up fine, but when I went to restore it later it made it about halfway through /Data and rebooted. Figured it might be a freak thing, but it did it multiple times with that backup as well as with a different backup. Had to clean flash to get up and running again. With the exception of that... Really nice work! I like it quite a bit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PeterGunz:
Just says failed in red.

There is a chance that I am having a recovery issue, because TWRP has rebooted in the middle of several wipes recently (randomly) . But if anybody else has a fail during installation, hopefully they will post details.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon36:
I'll look into it.. I have a busy work load the next few days, but i will look into it. Is it backups made with other Recoveries or Backups made with this one. Just so i know what to look at.

This is an awesome recovery!

I feel a little uneasy using TWRP or upgrading it to version 2.6 or higher because of some of the issues people are having.

This is like a TWRP and CWM hybrid, maybe I just like it more because it's what I'm used to, but I'm really happy you ported this over. Thanks a lot.

Flashed fine in TWRP by the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon36:
Apparently the backup/restoring is a bug for 4.3 ROMs. Once the recovery is updated I'll port it and post the update. Sorry for any inconvenience its causing at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tracerman:
Any update on an update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon36:
No update at the moment. It looks like it was to fix it on another phone. People still having the backup restore problem.

Edit:

So for giggles I just backed up and restore just fine. Can the people having problems give me a little more details like sdcard size, format, and rom .

Now I just did recently format my internal memory.

So that might be the problem. Something you guys having problems can try. Back it up to a computer format it with recovery and copy your information back.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Eyalkn:
I also miss it. I love this Recovery out of all three and it will be really nice to enjoy it again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JRJ442:
This is more based on CWM so no, your backups will not work. Odds are they will fail at the restore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Eyalkn:
Based in what I remember you can choose in settings between the two.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Yes, you are able to restore backups from TWRP with this recovery.

Backups made can't be restored by TWRP though.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hexcorev2:
Really? I could have sworn I made a twrp backup in philz's recovery and was able to flash it in regular twrp recovery. Seeing as it was in the twrp format.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
you're probably right, I haven't dug that far into it and only thought it backed up in cwm format.

You're right if you successfully did that, this recovery literally has so many features it's hard to find and keep track of all of them.

This just got updated for the T-Mobile S3 tonight, but their thread didn't even get updated yet, should be a 6.0.4.5 base so it should work with 4.4 roms.

Sometimes my backups will not restore. I've had it happen before, and tonight it happened again. I backed up the latest version of MIUI, flashed a different rom which was buggy, decided to go back to MIUI, and when I tried to restore the backup, my phone reboots in the middle of restoring and I end up with a fresh install of MIUI, or at least none of my stuff is saved. As you can imagine, this is extremely frustrating since I now have no working rom. The last time this happened I was able to somehow get it to restore using the "custom restore" feature, but this time I can't get it to work. When I restore data, it goes through the restore, but then says there was an error during the restore, and when I reboot my phone I'm greeted with the set-up page. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a regular CWM touch recovery zip I can flash through philz recovery?

hey guys anyone know why you cant backup or restore on wm5.0 or is there a similar function for it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] robal:
Hi

WM5 has integrated "persistent storage" feature.

That means that system is placing all your data in ROM (if possible).

It's recommended to install any programs on SD card to maximise amount of free ROM.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] rilot:
No idea. It is still absolutely neccessary IMO as we still have to do the odd hard reset from time to time, persistant storage or not.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] SaarAvigour:
And the registry is not in Persistent Mem either
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] imablackhat:

[Moto X General] VolcyDX:
So I got my VZW Dev Moto X Wednesday and wanted to give a little review so far. Like most of us I replaced an aging VZW Galaxy Nexus w/ extended OEM battery.

Initial impressions

- this thing is FAST!!!!!

- its physically smaller then the GNex and taking a little bit to get used to (typing is a little off while getting used to the new phone)

- signal is much better then the Gnex (duh!)

- battery is worlds better (ran from 8-5 yesterday on LTE at work with 7 hours of Google Music streaming, then home and on wifi. Ended up with 4hr 43min of screen on before it died)

- its official, I'm addicted to Active Notifications.

- I find myself wishing for the stock android browser for a few sites, seemed a little snappier then Chrome (could side load I'm sure)

Overall I am a happy camper. Now to see what the dev community comes up with!
[Moto X General] leemii:
Wow it sounds amazing, I hope it will come to europe!
[Moto X General] rmead01:
Check the themes/apps section. There is a thread for the AOSP browser.
[Moto X General] you_man:

[Moto X General] BackInA88:
I'm in almost the same boat as you coming from the Verizon Gnex.

I loved being able to play with different ROM's.

So I bought the Verizon Moto X DE.

This phone is lightyears ahead of the Gnex.

I'm not a heavy user but I've been getting great battery live.

6AM to 9PM with 1 1/2 or more of screen time with 70% battery left!

Much better reception, I'm even getting 4G in the building at work where the Gnex had trouble gettting 3G.
[Moto X General] alhadee12:
Have anyone compare this device or the regular Moto X to the Droid Maxx?
[Moto X General] aysiu:
Switched from Verizon Galaxy Nexus to T-Mobile Moto X. Moto X is definitely light years ahead.
[Moto X General] skinien:
I'm thinking about switching from Verizon to T-Mobile and I'm wondering how you like it. I live in San Diego and T-Mobile LTE is supposedly pretty good out here. Earlier in the year I experimented with the Nexus 4 and T-Mobile before they had LTE in my area. I had a couple of dead spots here and there, but it was OK. I'm thinking of trying them again since they have LTE now.

If you don't mind answering:

1) Do you happen to live in Southern California?

2) How's your coverage so far compared to Verizon? Does your area have LTE?
[Moto X General] sleepyguy007:
I live in LA and just switched from a RAZR m and previous to that a gnex on Verizon. I'm running a Puerto Rico model moto x without aws hspa and I think it still has better reception than Verizon. Verizon actually had some areas with no reception. Verizon does almost always give you 3g when t mobile for me might hit edge but I haven't seen a dead spot on t mobile yet. Have had it about two weeks...

In the bay area where I used to live Verizon was much better than t mobile but in LA at least its not really worth the money
[Moto X General] aysiu:
I used to live in Northern California, and now I'm in New England (have used T-Mobile and Verizon in both locations). Basically the theoretical coverage of Verizon is better, but I find the T-Mobile experience leaves me with a less frustrating experience.

T-Mobile, when it has coverage has good coverage. The coverage is solid. But when T-Mobile doesn't have coverage, it's got nothing--zero. This usually happens in rural areas or remote suburban areas.

The problem I had with Verizon on the Galaxy Nexus was the horrrible handoffs between CDMA and LTE. There were a lot of times (in urban areas, even) when my Galaxy Nexus would be on the cusp of 3G with two bars and 4G with one bar, and the phone couldn't make up its mind, so I ended up with essentially no usable data. If I switched to CDMA-only, things would work better for a while, but eventually my entire workable signal would just disappear. This was with the stock Android, rooted Android, old radios, new radios. I tried everything and could not get a good consistent signal. There were also weird situations in which I would appear to have a full signal and couldn't connect to anything. Other times, I would appear to have no signal, and web pages would still load.

TLDR version: Verizon was a headache.

I'm much happier with T-Mobile. When I have good coverage, it's good, and the signal bars never lie. Transitions between 3G and 4G are smooth. In fact, I rarely have 3G at all. Seems to just be 4G HSPA+, 4G LTE... or nothing.
