[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
seems as your power button might be getting "stuck" pushed in. that would explain random shutdowns(pushing the button in for 10 seconds force shuts down the phone) and boot up.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mja1975:
That would cause the effects I'm seeing but when trying to start the phone it always "feels" like its working properly. I'll keep it in mind for the next time it happens though. :)
[General Marketing & SEO] johnns777:
Hey guys,

I am pretty new to this forum, so please excuse me if I am posting my writings on the wrong place, but since I saw a few guy with similar posts, I would also like to introduce mine here.

Well, I am app developer and I have already developed a few interesting applications for ANDROID and BLACKBERRY markets.

I would like to introduce you one of my apps and I will appreciate some feedback from your side.

This application is called Football Hangman and it is free to download on Google Playstore.

Here is a short app description, that you can also read in the App-Store:

"You are a soccer fan and want to learn more about football? Well, here is your chance to put your knowledge to the test. Bringing back childhood memories, the good old hangman comes now in a football version. Test your knowledge of football players, stadiums, teams, etc.

In order to increase your scores, you can play "penalty bets" and risk your points to earn even more. Play every day and keep an eye on the statistics from previous days. Challenge yourself and try to guess as much words as possible during the course of the day to improve your personal best."

Please try this game and give me some feedback. You can also look at my other developed applications and try them out. I would appreciate your comments and ideas for better updating and further development.

Thanks a lot!

Here are also some screenshots:
[Moto X General] 26kick:
Today, the Moto X has dropped to $130 for Att and Verizon and $150 for Sprint on contract at Costco.com (3rd party called Wireless Advocates), plus those crazy taxes of course (approximately $50, I think). I bought my X for $200 from Costco two weeks ago and called today for a price adjustment, which they offer for 30 days beyond your purchase date.

Not only does Costco offer an amazing 90 day return policy (which I took advantage of to change from the HTC One), include an accessory pack (kinda worthless), and offer free shipping and activation, but there's an additional rebate offer on Sprint's Moto X this month only for a bonus portable battery pack (Motorola brand, I believe). A battery pack could seriously come in handy with our non-removable battery situation.

Costco also offers warranty by Square Trade for $99, which I believe is a good deal, if that appeals to you.

I know the price for a Moto X is lower now at Best Buy and Amazon, but factor in what Costco offers and see if it might work better for you.
[Moto X General] enik_fox:
Keep in mind after 14 days your in a contract. You can't change phones after the first 14 days without approval from the management. You can return it up to day 90 but your in a contact.
[Moto X General] 26kick:
Correct. Sorry if that was unclear. I simply exchanged phones and stayed in my contract.
[Moto X General] enik_fox:
Just making sure we are all on the same page. Even swapping to a different device after 14 days requires approval though.
[Moto X General] 26kick:
I don't recall any approval process. I simply called Costco, told them I had a problem with the call quality of the HTC One, and that I'd like to change to the Moto X. As soon as it became available, they processed the exchange. I had to pay upfront for the new phone and will (hopefully) get the refund when they process my return. Maybe there was an approval in the background somewhere.
[Moto X General] snarl16:
Anyone know if this is online only or if it would be the same price in the store?
[Moto X General] 26kick:
The only one listed as being available in the warehouses is the ATT model, and the price could be different. Give 'em a call.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rationalthinker1:
Hello,

I don't know why this is happening to my phone. I recently got this phone. I rooted it but it is a stock flash. I only keep apps that I need and disable everything else. However, about 50% of the time, any calls that I get, as soon as I accept it, it's restarts. Also, Whenever I am making a call, the phone goes dark, never comes back on to cancel a call or something and restarts if no one picks up. If someone picks up, the screen goes back on.

What gives?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Most probably ROM problems. Try changing the ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rationalthinker1:
But it's a stock ROM. I didn't even install any other ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Yeah, but system errors can occur, like a file being corrupted. This is solved by reflashing the system partition.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rationalthinker1:
Hey, can you provide me a link or a tutorial on how I can do that?

Thank you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
You just take your ROM (Be sure it's the exact version you have installed), and flash it from recovery, without wiping anything.
[HTC Rezound] greenhead916:
So...I was on CM10.2 and decided to try out Carbon. I used the latest TWRP recovery, wiped everything, and installed. I then installed the custom gapps, then got careless and installed the other .zips on the custom gapps page. I wasn't paying attention and thought they were required.

I'm S-ON so I did the fastboot flash boot boot.img from the boot.img in the Carbon zip.

ROM worked great, though, I was at home and had the wifi connected. I guess I didn't realize that the mobile data wan't working.

I noticed it yesterday at work and thought it might be a ROM problem. So, followed the process above and installed the 4.3 version of LiquidSmooth, Paranoid, and finally Revolt.

I couldn't get my mobile data to come on to save my life.

So, I just relocked it and RUU'ed with rezound_AndroidPolice_4.03.605.2_PH98IMG.zip (I had used this once before and it worked, before re-unlocking and playing with various roms)

I make it through all of the setup...still no mobile. The notifications bar *shows* three bars, but, the Mobile Network entry in Settings says "Turning on"

I've even tried a factory reset...everything on the phone works except the mobile network.

Anything else I can try?
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
check you sim card. i might be a goner. you can take it to vzw and they will issue a new card.

EDIT:

if you are on the stock rom could try this. pull the sim out, boot the phone. it will give you a sim error. turn off the phone and place sim back in

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] seoulbrova:
I found this but it didnt answer my question completely http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1479500

I need to tether at work to a couple times during the day to show media files, pictures, etc of things while I'm teaching (4th grade). Netflix also has quite a bit of educational videos I would like to stream to supplement science and social studies. I can't use my school's network because they have so many restrictions that it blocks nearly everything.

If I tether via USB connection with PDA Net or Easy Tether, is there any way Sprint can tell that I'm tethering?

I tried the wifi feature on Pda Net and the phone brought up a message saying I did not subscribe to those services.

When I connected via USB, I didn't have that issue. I just want to make sure I can use it consistently without getting kicked off the network and before I pay for the full app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
I would assume if you are using a 3rd party USB tethering app and the phone doesn't give you Sprint's hotspot warning that you should be in the clear.

I'm also looking into tethering with my GN3 via USB and WiFi... Still looking/waiting for the best (free) options.

There is also the Bluetooth tether.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ItsMeOk:
You can right click on the PDA net icon on the pc, click settings, and hide tether usage.

Also, be careful about going around those restrictions at work. 1 kid mentioning it at home and parents complaining about something and it would not look good for you.
[Xperia Z1 General] teamHTC:
I never thought thisn would happen and it.just makes me.love the phone even more :) only one bar.though but high speeds so far I've only tested in my office 12 mbs down
[Xperia Z1 General] rhug0323:
Which version do you have?
[Xperia Z1 General] n4v1n:
its 99% the 6903. 6906 is not released yet
[Xperia Z1 General] CollinFX45:
This **should** not be possible, right? I have T-mobile and I was going to buy the C6903, but the C6906 would be more applicable to the North American market with the addition of band 17 rather than just band 4.

Is it possible, though, that 12mbps is just HSPA+? Probably not on AT&T, right?

I'll pull the trigger right now if the C6903 "secretly" has band 17 enabled :)

-Collin-
[Xperia Z1 General] m3lover1:
6903 is technically possible to have lte on AT&T as long as you're in an area with 1700 frequency, which is rare since AT&T uses 700 more.
[Xperia Z1 General] greatremix:
It actually may be. I had a TL with has no AWS support, but after flashing the international baseband, I have HSPA + on TMo. If the ZU LTE for NA got released, somebody with 03 and att can test it
[Xperia Z1 General] teamHTC:
if I knew how to take a screenshot would but i get lte half the time in my office here in miami.. its only one or two bars but hey its lte and its a c6093 model and i beleive that nobody will see the 6906 for a while so i gave up its such a great phone even with hspa
[Xperia Z1 General] teamHTC:
ive been standing on the edge of the c6906 and it jus twasnt happening for me or any of the american users. i gave up and got the c6903 and it works great along with lte sometimes but h+ is honestly just as good. and the screen kinda sucks yellowish tint and my htc screen isnt even hd and looks more crisp...
[Xperia Z1 General] CollinFX45:
I had the G2 on AT&T and loved it, but I really want the Z1 on T-mobile over the LG G2. I know this thread isn't about that, but, it's what I'm currently going back and forth on. Not pleased to hear about the yellowish tint; first I've heard about that actually.

I think the C6906 is supposed to be released this month, but who knows when I'll be able to actually buy it. Argh! C6903 should do everything I want on T-mobile, so maybe I'll purchase from a place with an okay return policy.

Thanks for the info! :)

I just moved to t-mobile from att because of this phone I get 15 mbs download on speedtest I have the prepaid 4G 70 a month I'm in philadelphia I went to ny on the weekend I was at new paltz sometimes my phone would say att?
[Xperia Z1 General] m3lover1:
That was hard to read...
[Xperia Z1 General] CollinFX45:
Well, I couldn't hold out any longer - I ordered the C6903. I'm very curious if anyone else has successfully gotten AT&T LTE on that model number. I'll try it with my AT&T SIM as soon as the device arrives and report back. I'm not holding my breath, though.

-Collin-
[Xperia Z1 General] AhsanU:
It depends on your location. I live in NYC and could not get 4G LTE on my C6903 model, which is why I returned it. You can get LTE from AT&T on the C6903 model though. AT&T primarily uses 700 MHz but are in the process of expanding to 1700 MHz. There are a few places that AT&T has worked on where you can receive LTE, the OP's location must be one of them.

Those of you waiting for the C6906 model will only have to wait a couple of more days. The C6906 model is being released to Canada on the 15th of October. If you can somehow order one from an online retailer that ships internationally, you can get LTE capability from AT&T. Not to mention, the C6906 model is starting off at $699 CDN (I believe) from Bell, so that's definitely a better deal than the C6903 model from GSM Nation and what not.
[Xperia Z1 General] Gitaroo:
C6906 is also available from Sony store canada.
[Xperia Z1 General] Cheeze[iT]:
Time to make some canadian friends who will ship to the US
[Xperia Z1 General] Raspster:
This is LTE in NYC for comicon. Obviously LTE on AT&T at the javits center.
[Xperia Z1 General] UserDemos:
Your phone doesn't show as being on LTE, so I think you're mistaken as Sony should display LTE in the signal bar if you're connected. If you're on the C6903, then it also can't be. AT&T holds no AWS spectrum in NYC to run LTE on, and the phone doesn't support 700 (Band 17). Nor do they have enough 850 (Band 5) to cannibalize for LTE and are likely still running HSPA+ on it with a GSM carrier.

I'd like to see a screenshot of the Engineering Screen to buy this one.
[Xperia Z1 General] Raspster:
4G on the Z1 after the latest is LTE dude. H+ is what I get in a 3g area as it hspa so yes, I'm getting LTE on AT&T

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------

As for the engineering shot, sorry, didn't get that. Don't really care who things I'm getting it or not.. Just trying to contribute... All I know is what I experienced today in NYC... Here is another LTE test I did with better LTE results...
[Xperia Z1 General] Raspster:
LTE
[Xperia Z1 General] UserDemos:
Calm down dude. Just questioning the results since it doesn't seem possible as AT&T doesn't seem to hold AWS spectrum there currently. Either AT&T is renting the spectrum from someone else or something else is going on because they don't have the licences to do what your phone seems to be suggesting. I find spectrum fascinating so it just seems interesting to see what's happening there.

I'd love to see an engineering screen just to see if I can gather more information about how they are doing it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joedajoester:
Nice to see you got through it too! Immediately after i rooted, i flashed cm10. Its an AOSP rom. I definitely recommend it because its not (in my opinion) ugly like touchwiz, and its tons faster, and has great little extras that make it easier to use! Hope you consider it! Make sure you flash the right one for your phone, and carrier, etc. Good luck!

So I purchased the Exec today w00t and 2nite IVe been trying to sync it to my laptop (Dell Latitude D600) running Windows XP SP2

I've followed the instructions on the MS webstie regarding problems with firewalls, VPN and network accelerators but to no-avail.

I have managed to sync it to my desktop PC (Windows XP SP2) but thats not real use to me as all my work stuff is on my laptop.

I had a previous version of AS installed but have removed this - still no joy. I get the following popup error messages when I start AS - wether Im trying to sync or not

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] monkeyleader:
Hi,

So I think Ive discovered what the problem is - good old VPN blocking the connection - I guess even though the error message talks about an incorrect software version it could just be that AS isnt getting a chance to start up and failing.

Time to talk to our corporate guys in regards to a new VPN policy - how hopeful am I ?

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] monkeyleader:
Okay so problem not solved and this one is driving me totally nuts ! Im so desperate if anyone can help me solve it I'll donte a bit of cash to the tekguru fund !

So basically the error I keep getting is one or both of the following

Troubelshooting to date

- installed AS4.0 with no joy

- delete the AS3.x folders, dlls and registry entries (i think i got them all) with no joy

- uninstalled my VPN and tried to install / sync with no joy

- got down on my hands and kness and begged the XDA master to give me some joy, with no joy !

So Im really at my limits now - I even got a message on the Exec 2nite when I went to syn that I needed to upgrade the version of AS on my pc - errr ?

PS: and it works on my desktop pc - had 3.8, upgraded to 4.0 and sync no problem - but of course all my work gubbins is on the laptop.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] kitor:
Hi,

At first - if this is wrong category, please move it into correct one.

I have Dell XPS10 - RT based device. It was used by some company - then they wiped all data. All, including partitions. Device is booting into recovery from USB pendrive, but cannot recover it because "required partition is missing".

After digging in recovery command prompt, I found that there's no partitions on internal drive. Created some, upacked wim image - everything's was copying and creating ok, so there's no problem with flash memory.

But I'm still looking how to recreate original partition table, and UEFI bootloader - as I have no experience with uefi at all. On one of youtube vids I found this partition table (it's print from diskpart)

Partition, Type, Size, Offfset

Partition 1 Recovery 500MB 1024KB

Partition 2 System 100MB 501MB

Partition 3 Reserved 128MB 601MB

Partition 4 Primary 53GB 729MB

Partition 5 Recovery 4100MB 53GB

So from what I'm guessing - first 1MB is GPT, then there's not needed partition. 2nd is 100MB system, so it's efi bootloader one? 3rd seems to be usual "System reserved" for Win bootloader and 4 is main one. 5th is not needed again.

After unpacking wim into partition 4, device is still not booting, so I assume that I need somehow install bootloader into partitions 2 and 3. Any clues how to achieve that?

Found this script: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825686.aspx, will try to apply it tomorrow.

[e]

So, this link helped me - device has usual EFI/GPT partition table - recreated it with help of this technet link, unpacked wim and repaired boot record. Now I'm happy owner of XPS10 64GB ;)

Guys, searching for a security app, I found Gotya.

It seems a very good app, it takes a pic with the front camera when someone puts the wrong unlock pattern, takes GPS information, and send it to your e-mail...

BUT, if you have GPS, mobile data and wifi turned off, it just don't do anything...

Since it's pretty hard to make the battery last more than 10h with GPS+wifi+mdata...

I would like to know if there's a app like Gotya, but that forces it(GPS+wifi+mdata) on until it finish sending the e-mail, then turn it off again?

I'm able to view the directories in adb shell. I tried ADB commander and it shows that the Internal storage has only 2MB of free space.

Not to sound like a downer but I thought the last two games they released were not XPO, and were only later optimized after much public outrcry. I know Shadowgun Deadzone is certainly not XPO as it also requires 4.0.4 or higher. And even the original Dead Trigger was told no XP support due to the Adreno 200/205 bug which they later again resolved. Again not trying to be a downer, I am hoping that come 10/23 we will all be pleased to see our device supported however the fact our device is not well over 2 years old and even older by hardware standpoint means eventually dev support will dry up..... of course Kemco keeps supporting our phone but not everyone is a fan of old school JRPG games.
