[HTC One X] harshalkatakia:
Hi,

I have a nandroid back up of 4.0.4 that I had taken. Should I do whatever is mentioned in the first post or do you suggest something else?

Thanks!

Edit: HBOOT v1.36

Cid 038

P.S. I want to get back to stock and unrooted, should I download and restore a 4.1.1 backup, flash stock recovery, lock my bootloader and update via OTA <---- (Update by checking for OTA in settings and not flash it in recovery)
[HTC One X] virgolib:
According to your Hboot 1.36 I think you can restore your nan backup of 4.0.4 (I think may be 4.0.3) but you need stock recovery of this 4.0 rom.

After that check for OTA update to 4.1.1 and install it, then check again for OTA 4.2.2 and install it.
[HTC One X] harshalkatakia:
I tried restoring the 4.0.4 backup but it stuck on the boot screen. I have downloaded the 4.1.1 nandroid backup from XDA itself and I'll try if it works. Would I have to lock my bootloader to get updates even after flashing stock recovery from the nandroid backup? If so, when should I lock the bootloader? After flashing boot.img or recovery?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Mr. SirPerson:
I recently installed the Google Play 4.2.2 ROM and when I get a new message, any apps running with force close and the message "Unfortunately, messaging has stopped working"

Is this a common problem? Is there any way to fix it?

Version: 4.2.2

Baseband: I337UCUAMF3

Kernel: 3.4.0-812098
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] FourPointedFreak:
I have safestrap installed on my i337 on MF3, I currently run the GPE 4.2.2 ROM on ROM-Slot 1; I have encountered some apps force closing with the exact same error, but non of which were the messaging app. Some were user installed apps and non to be stock apps such as Messaging. I reformatted and clear the delvik cache and reinstalled the GPE Rom 4.2.2 on the same slot and seems to be fine now, only one app force closed so far and that's because of a mistake I made.

I have a GS3 i747 running 4.1.2

All I want to do is downgrade to 4.1.1 so I can unlock the damn phone and use it with T-Mobile. My previous GS3 & current one are having the SAME problem - The MTP drivers are failing to install and my PC will not recognize the device

I've tried the following:

- Factory reset device while deleting all drivers on computer. (did not sign in to google during factory reset)

- Samsung toolkit download

- Reinstalled drivers on computer

- Used different cables including factory

- Used different USB ports

- Updated windows media player

- Attempted to update drivers from device manager

- Attempted to update MTP through windows update but failed

- Connected device without sim/SD card

- Installed drivers without internet connection (phone & PC)

The ADB interface, Mobile USB modem, and USB composite device are all recognized. MTP will not install.

As I speak now with another attempt now it won't even recognize MTP will not install, it just states "unidentified device faled"

Sorry, but going to bump this.

Can you get into download mode? Whenever my drivers are being wonky going into download mode and connecting it to my PC usually does auto installs the drivers and does the trick
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Paul1865:
Got the same problem on my Galaxy SII.

This solved my problem:

Go to settings > applications > development and turn on usb debugging.

now it reads as a `mass storage device` and not MTP
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Try these drivers:

These are the 1_4_6 drivers, not the 1_5_4 drivers. They seem to work better for me than the newer ones
[HTC One X] chaoscreater:
Hey guys, I bought a 2nd hand One X recently and it seems to be having the WIFI hardware issue. Like many articles have stated, if you press between both sides of the phone close to the camera and the volume buttons, your WIFI signal will increase and this indicates a hardware issue.

I tried it at home initially, I tested it 5 times and 3 tries out of 5 showed an increase in WIFI. But then I tried it again in public and it didn't work. Therefore, I'm unsure whether my One X really does have a hardware issue or not.

I read that HTC have fixed the hardware issue in the later production runs, so I was wondering if it's possible to check any info on the phone to determine an approximate date of when it was produced, thus also determining whether it was one of the older production models that didn't have the hardware issue fixed?

I know you guys would probably tell me to just open the phone and check for myself, but I'm afraid of breaking it since this is quite a risky task. I'm considering sending it in for repair but I'm guessing it's probably gonna cost a lot and not worth it.

Anyway I would just like to confirm whether it's a hardware issue or not through other methods other than opening the phone up or sent it for repair. Any suggestions?
[HTC One X] surrealjam:
Assuming you have a friend's Android phone to hand - your best bet is to download WiFi Analyzer from the Play store onto both handsets.

Connect the HOX and the other phone to the same AP and run WiFi Analyzer - even though the HOX doesn't have the greatest WiFi reception when working 100%, if the HOX is registering significantly lower strength and few visible AP's then it is likely a hardware issue. By significantly, I would say 15dBm or more difference...

Does anyone own this phone?

I may have to get one and was just wondering if its a decent phone or not.

Things are tough right now and I don't think we are going to be able to pay our Verizon bill and I may have to just go spend the $40 at walmart to pick this up :(

Anyone had any success rooting this phone? How about CWM?

Please let me know.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] JHell:
I have one and root is possible, but the bootloader is locked because virgin mobile is bein stupid so cwm is out of the question so if u get one and root it be careful. I suggest a different carrier like at&t Go Phone

I got this phone for $20 at Walmart's Black Friday sale. For that price who could pass up Android 4.0x? Despite its apparent lower quality, I am quite pleased with its overall performance and the virtual keyboard, surprisingly, works better than a many other phones I have tried.

permission question

Hey all,Ive never messed with changing permissions,I have an Event and Im wonder ing when I open the permission page with root explorer it reads like this

READ WRITE EX

OWN X X

GROUP X

GLOBAL

In the post it says "from r-- to rw- before editing the file" Dopes this mean OWN has 1 X,GROUP has 2 X,and GLOBAL is blank correct? Then edit file and change to how it was in the begining? Thanks alot!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] TrueNomad:
Sorry to rehash and old thread but this one seemed to fit the best to what I am experiencing and what I'd like to ask.

I have owned this phone a little over 3 months now, switching from LG Optimus V, I have some grief from the day one.

First and foremost, it is very unstable. On the average, I have to hard reset it once a day, most of the time, more than just once. And when I say Hard Reset, I mean holding the power button down forever for the phone to reboot as the screen doesn't show anything. A few times, I went as far as removing the battery.

Question 1. I looked around hard and I didn't see any custom ROMs or any custom recovery modules, likes of clockwork. Am I missing something ?

My main concern was the ability of running FoxFi and as expected, it did not run on this one. So, I took the advie of some guys over at the android forums and loaded up poot to root it. It seems to have no problems with rooting. But afterwards, I have tried few hotspot apps and never been able to turn on this fjunctionality. I know the apps I chose required root access and I turned it on before starting the app, but nada...

Question 2. How can I get either FoxFi working on this thing ? Or short of it, how can I make any (suggestions welcome) WiFi hotspot app working with it ?

Thanks in advance

virgin mobile kycera event

]

Yes I own a virgin mobile kyocera event and sucessfully rooted device with no problems at all. The process is much more simplified now than it was when I rooted, so lucky you :) And your going to want TWRP so you can use the recovery stored on SD if you do come across and bootloop or brick issues. Its worth the $30 I spent It's not the best by far, but its really pretty capable once rooted. Much better than I had expected. I hope I was of help to you, and if u decide to buy it and need help rooting I'm down. :)

It would be pretty nice if I the external phone buttons would light with closed lid while the phone is ringing. This way you could pick it up even in the dark...

Any registry hacks?
[General Accessories] AspenMan:
Anker sent me their 5 port USB charger to try out and I have to say I love it.

There are a ton of great reviews on Amazon so I'll just get to a couple of points not already mentioned.

First off, while there are "5 ports designed to charge the iPad (2 x 2.1A), iPhone (1A), Samsung Tab (1.3A), and Android devices (1A) at full speed", these ports are interchangeable. I tend to use the ipad ports to charge my Samsung galaxy tab 3 8.0 and Galaxy Note 2, use the Samsung tab port to charge my ipod touch and the Android port to charge my Bose bluetooth headset. I find this combo produces the quickest charge for all my devices. In fact, this one charger charges all four devices slightly faster than if I use the original chargers that came with the devices.

I have several retractable usb cords I just keep plugged into the charger and when I need a charge I just pull out the appropriate cable and am good to go. WAY less clutter on my desk vs using all the original chargers and it only occupies one outlet in my power strip - this is a HUGE plus!

The only gripe I have is I wish it came with some sort of stand or base to put it on to prevent it from tipping. I do tend to knock it over but I just don't want to lay it on it's side, looks good standing upright and takes up less desk space.

I am a pretty big fan of Anker products, I've bought many of their batteries and a couple of their 2 port wall chargers. All have performed wonderfully.

Here's a link to a how-to I did using one of their batteries to charge my Asus TF700 (this is the only way to remotely charge the Asus TF700 that I'm aware of)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eZdubzitmk4:
What's the deal with every 4.3 ROM having the damn assert check. They all fail for me while flashing..and since I can't get my pc to recognize my note 2 I have to use air droid to transfer the ROM to my pc, then unpack the rom , edit the updater script and remove the assert check..then rezip it and transfer back to my phone then flash. Ffs lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dumbo53:
I would recommend you try to get the proper Samsung drivers working on your pc before you drive yourself crazy. Your problem may be you have the wrong version of the drivers. If all else fails you can try installing latest Kies (Yuck) - which also as the driver.

Incidentally I recently tried to go from working on my Note 2 to an old Galaxy S on my pc. Guess what? Major headache! Each uses a diff version of the driver (all with same name), and it is difficult to install over an existing one - even after uninstalling it. All I can say is - make sure you have the right version, and persevere (uninstall old, reboot, install new, test). Then when you get it working, leave it alone!

never happens to me using TWRP 2.6.3.....and I have flashed 4.3 AOSP roms at least 100 times...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eZdubzitmk4:
Some phones just fail assert checks. My model number is fine.

Regardless..assert check is a useless addition in updater script. Its just to make sure your flashing the right ROM on your phone..its not worth the hassle for some people.

I'm thinking maybe cause I flashed Verizon ROMs it messed with my model
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
Does this battery work with all the 3rd party ROMs like PA, CM, PAC, etc? I keep thinking I read somewhere that ROMs wouldn't work right with the EB40 mod and I just want to make sure they work like normal before I commit to buying one..
[Motorola Atrix HD] skeevydude:
It'll work just fine. Both batteries use the same driver so there won't be any issues. Only issue you might have is if you do the mod incorrectly you might have a fun time getting one of the speakers to work (forgot which one, haven't done the mod but many here have w/o issues)
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
Thanks. I guess I'm going to bite the bullet and order one! Would you mind elaborating on the issue with the speaker? Or pointing me in the right direction to read more about it?
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Just make sure the battery is pushed down when you install it so it doesn't detach the speaker connections.

[Motorola Atrix HD] yar2:
Having done this about 6 months ago I can assure you the battery mod works great. There is a plastic slot on the phone that the stock battery fits under. The EB40 battery is too thick and if you force it into the slot you might disconnect the speaker. I cut it away to completely clear the EB40 battery with an xacto knife.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
Does anyone know if there's anything special you have to do once you install the battery? I installed mine today and started charging it, but I noticed that it went from 50% to fully charged in like 15 minutes, so I feel like something is wrong. Otherwise, the install was super simple. I did end up using a dremel to cut out part of the back so the thicker battery would fit better, though.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
When you get it your supposed to keep the phone off and charge to 100. Then run it down to zero and charge it up again.

Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Parham112:
Well I'm waiting on it to run out now. But when I first put the battery in and started charging it is when I saw it go from 50% to 100% in a short time.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Was the phone off when you charged it?

[Android Apps and Games] h77ps:
Hi guys!

Just wrapped up on my first android app and I wanted to see if people are interested to try it out. Its called App Categories and it does just that: categorizes apps. When you first start the app you can scan your phone for available apps and then you can auto categorize them. Some apps are not present in the Play Store and may not be categorized although I keep an eye on the database and if I see an unknown package I try my best to assign a category for it.

After the initial setup, every time you install a new app it will automatically be categorized. Another feature I implemented is the ability to create a shortcut per category. So if you create a category for games and create a shortcut for it on the launcher, every time you install a new game it should automatically add it to your shortcut.

The app is free and ad-free and it will remain so forever.

Here is a link to the play store:

Here is a link to my App Categories site:

App Categories Website

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or find any bugs.

Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] zerosys:
Works pretty well, nothing to complain about yet.

I like the shortcut feature.

Keep on developing this app.

Hi to all! I am having a problem with my device HTC Droid DNA running on NOS 3.0.3 GSM Android version 4.2.2 sense 5. Here's the problem, when i connect my Phone to PC it is being read as CD-Rom, i already installed latest HTC sync and i believe that HTC drivers are installed along with it, correct me if im wrong. Am i missing something or is there a workaround on this in order for me to be able to access my files on the phone and be able to copy files from PC to phone and vice versa.

Appreciate for any help and guidance. Cheers!!!
[HTC Droid DNA] times_infinity:
Google removed support for mass storage mode a while ago. The DNA and most, if not all, newer phones and phones updated to jellybean remove the support for mass storage and switch to MTP.

So what I'm trying to say is, the DNA doesn't support mass storage. It doesn't have a removable sdcard or even an dedicated internal sdcard.

The 'sdcard' is shared with the data partition and cannot be unmounted from android and mounted as a mass storage device.
[HTC Droid DNA] walther1337:
You can use adb to pull and push folders and specific files from your phone.

To pull items from your phone:

adb pull <path to folder or file on phone> <path where you want the file saved on your computer> (don't use the '<>' symbols)

Note: you can use root browser to find the path on your phone

To push items to your phone:

adb push <path of folder/file on your computer> <path to folder or file on phone>

Alternatively, you can uninstall the HTC sync and install the usb driver, then when your phone is plugged in go to my computer, find the drive labeled HTC6435LVW. You'll be able to drag and drop to and from your phone.
[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:

[HTC Droid DNA] walther1337:
That's odd. You might want to try using uninstaller software like Revo Uninstaller to get all the junk left behind, reboot, then install the driver again. Also make sure you're installing the 64-bit driver if you're windows installation is 64-bit. To find that, Start > right click My Computer > properties > under System you'll see System type

Anybody else notice the warm/yellowish tint in the whites.. The whites on my DNA were very white.. Is there a app that I could use to make the screen more of a cooler color.. My brother had the same issue with his nexus 4 as did all nexus 4 users.. They created a fix too but I believe it was tweaked in a customer kernel.. Any ideas??
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowd_Control:
I haven't seen that, but I also manage my screen with Lux. It's a brightness control app, but it also sets a custom "warmth" in the evening or lower light conditions. Might give you some freedom to tweak.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcanexvi:
As someone who professionally tunes televisions the reviews on telephone screens lately make me crazy. The "whites" on the phones (read: Samsung/HTC primarily) that some of these reviewers are clamoring for are actually blue. It causes the phone to have a complete shift into a spectrum of color that is just inaccurate across the board. The human eye perceives this as brighter (which is the same reason that showroom televisions are set to "vivid") which leads people to believe it's better. Samsung TV's do the same thing. They're some of the most inaccurate televisions on the market but they have some cool gimmicks (much like their phones) and they're a great marketing company so they sell like crazy. People just want the brightest, reddest, bluest, screen out there because it pops. Unfortunately... it's also very very wrong. This is actually one of the most accurate panels out there it's just not what we're used to seeing these days. It does push a little bit but not as bad as people think.

The camera however is a completely different story :P
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
Couldn't agree with you more. Try focal if you want a possibly better camera.

I've noticed my display to be a little opposite to the poster you were replying to. Mine reminds me of my galaxy nexus days , after I've adjusted it to be "cooler" (which may be moto tweaking for battery life) or messed with gamma settings.

Tmobile users pay attention! All others... Sorry you aren't on the best carrier in the US. Remember the sale tmo ran over the summer for zero down? (before you start arguing, it's actually a great deal. Aside from the fact that it's eisier to put less down and pay a few dollars extra a month, you actually save a little bit, and alot if you do the JUMP thing.)

Anyway, they're doing it again tomorrow, and it includes the note 3. And I called some tmobile stores and they knew what I was talking about and they have the note 3s (in limited stock) ready for tomorow. Go ahead hit my like button. I deserve it!

This sounds to good to be true. Going to find out tomorrow. There are five tmobile stores within 20 minutes of my house.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Josh H.:
But what if you only keep it for one year?

$29 x 12 months = $348

$199 down + $21 x 12 months = $451

There's no way you can lose by taking the $0 down. You will save money no matter what you intend to do. It is 0% financing after all...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Tweh:
CORRECT
[Galaxy Note 3 General] buenos:
Verizons Edge program offers $0 down $29.31 a month for the Note 3 as well....which isnt all that great cause they don't lower your monthly bill,

but they let you upgrade every 6 months as long as your phone is half paid off....which for someoen like myself who has never gone more than 8 months with the same phone...ill prob do it cause ive used all my families upgrades! :silly::silly:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] motohip:
But you have to keep paying for it until it's paid off right? You can't just stop paying just because you got rid of the phone after a year.
