And the console mode give us real 1080p output outside of movie playback. So we can play all Android games in 1080p or use Shield as small PC with 1080p output.

Damn, the future for this kind of devices looks very bright now.
[Shield General] agrabren:
Yes, many other game controllers work as well (They must support standard Bluetooth HID if they're bluetooth).

This is great news as I already have a moga pro, looks like I will be playing a lot of my PC games in the living room....wife's going to hate me haha.

Awesome, was the D-PAD buttons issue during PC Streaming resolved?

And what about PS3 and XBOX controller? Android has native support of both when connected with usb cable. But both have the D-PAD issue.

The PS3 controller can be used as HID bluetooth but root is needed with the sixaxis control app.

Thanks for telling us.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Hello,

I had a few issues with my HTC One XL, and decided to take the plunge and factory restore my phone. There was nothing that I could think of that I wanted other than my photos, so I backed up all my photos to my PC, and got to restoring it.

Once it was done I realised that I had notes I wish to keep. These notes were quite important to me. Is there any way to get these notes back? My phone is not rooted and on Android 4.2.2. This wouldn't be such a hassle if my phone wasn't running in MTP when I plug it into my computer.

Any help is appreciated,

Thank you.

P.S I'm new when it comes to phone terminology so excuse any silly questions, or if I don't understand what you're saying.

P.P.S Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I'm 90% sure it's not. I have been up all night trying to figure this out and this is my last hope.

There are data recovery programs available for Windows that might be able to recover your data, but if you've written to the sd card since the wipe those chances are slimmer.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
I have tried around 4 or 5 recovery programs. They are unable to continue as they require the device to be in USB mass storage mode. My phone won't do that because it constantly goes through MTP.

I have not written ANYTHING to the SD card since.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The only way I can think of to get it to mount in usb mass storage mode is through a custom recovery, for which you'd need an unlocked bootloader.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
With an unlocked bootloader, that deletes absolutely everything, doesn't it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
It deleted texts/call logs etc but it left all my photos and music alone.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Anyway I could back up the deleted note files? Or something?

Should I just do it and hope to God it doesn't rid of it haha?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I'd at least try it. Look at it this way, if you don't try your data is gone, if you try and it fails your data is still gone but at last you have a chance at restoring it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Good advice, just rooted it seeing how it goes.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Well now my phone won't turn on at all, it is doing something as the computer is saying that it's picking up a USB but can not recognise it.

Screen is black.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
What were you doing directly before this happened? Is the device registering on the PC as anything? Perhaps QHSUSB_DLOAD? I certainly hope not.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Don't say that to me. I'm pretty sure I just read QHSUSB_DLOAD in the Device Installing thing on Windows.... I'll double check if I can.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Oh dear, QHSUSB_DLOAD means a brick. What had you done/attempted beforehand?

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Yep, just double checked and it's QHSUSB_DLOAD.

I was on what I believe is the last step of rooting it. Unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery. Just went to enter recovery the last time and it didn't turn back on.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Which recovery did you flash? What's the exact filename?

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Knowing me it's problem wrong, I tried to do as much research as I could...

openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-endeavoru.img

It did boot after I flashed it though.

(Sorry if it takes a while to reply, I have to wait 5 minutes between them due to being a newcomer)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Oh no. That's a recovery for the HTC One X. The Endeavoru part of the filename means HTC One X (it's the codename). The codename for the HTC One XL is Evita. There's a slight chance you can recover it by trying the Evita Unbricking thread, to be honest most attempts fail at the enumerating partitions step but it's worth a shot. Sorry I don't have a link but if you Google Evita Unbricking it should come up, it has WIP in the title somewhere. It requires a Linux OS, a virtual Linux setup should do the trick. If that doesn't work you'll need to get a jtag repair done (about $60 USD).

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Well I guess there's where I dropped the ball. haha.

Thank you for all your help, I'll try the first method and if all else fails I might just let go of the phone...

Hoping for the best.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
If you don't want to have it repaired, you can sell it for parts (screen, speakers etc) and at least recoup a little bit a cash out of it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
The fix semi worked. It's now rebooting constantly at the HTC white screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Ok that's good, if you can get it to power on its very possibly recoverable yet. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"

(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Hopefully now you can enter recovery on your phone. Let me know how it goes.

Thank you. I'm currently out and will try it when I get home :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Okay I just got home and realised the phone was hot from turning itself on and off. I managed to turn it off and QHSUSB_DLOAD it again before I left so I fixed it and went on my jolly way.

Just got back tried to turn it off again as I have to go out soon again and wouldn't have time for the method you just gave me, but this time it just rebooted straight into Android... I must say I'm extremely confused yet happy.

The phone isn't rooted however and I'll have to retry tomorrow morning.

Thanks for your help, if you have any tips so that this doesn't happy again, I'm more than happy to hear them haha.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You got very lucky. If it was actually in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode I've only seen one or two people that have come back from that. The only advice I can really give is to make sure you only flash things that are intended for our device, so stay in our forum, don't stray from there and your should be ok. And if you have any questions or are unsure about something don't be afraid to ask here, I'm more than happy to help you out.

Now I just need to force it to use UMS and FINALLY attempt a recovery of the notes and some other files hahaha.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Blaizen88:
Just an update, in case someone wants to recover anything from their phone or something.

I have found the IMAGES that were drawn on the notes app using an app called DiskDigger (it's free!) I can't find a UMS forcer that works for my phone so I'm trying out apps, seeing how they work.

So far I'm pretty happy that I at least got the drawings back but I will continue on trying to get the text as well.

And thank you timmaaa for all your help and patience with me.

please help me thanks
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flumpster:
Volume up is only needed to enter APX mode to use NVFLASH backups.

It is not needed for fastboot and recovery. That is volume down and Power button.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] exstatica:
The universal may come to a point of not working at all in the US market. This is for information use only....

1. Cingular is launching their 3G network by the end of the year which looks like will only run on umts 1900, but there are talks that it might also run on umts 850. The universal only supports umts 2100. Currently in the us 2100 is reserved for military satellites, but the fcc has said that it will try to open the band. But to me that means even if the open the band cingular isn't going to change thier network. They'd rather people buy phones from them.

2. ATT ran on mostly 1900, and Cingular mostly 850, now the universal is a tri band phone 900/1800/1900. Cingular is moving most of its phone network to 850 wich the universal doesn't support. But some areas will have 1900 support

So just a warning, If you want the universal you may be limited. And you won't get the highspeed 3G which was the main reason i wanted the phone. Plus you loose out on reception.

hope that helps people who thought about buying the phone.

TL;DR

So, know, my question are, can I get ride of the binary counter trough a factory reset? If not, is there a safe way that doesn't implies "bricks"? At last, how could I have both the SuperUser and the recovery? what went wrong back there? Is there any more recent tutorial for rooting?

[One (M7) Accessories] IronMan1289:
I've had the carbon fiber black since I bought my One, but after a few months the texture scratched and came off. I used sand paper in water and then some Krylon Fusion for plastic paint and now my case looks good again!

So if your case looks battle worn, it couldn't hurt to try.
[One (M7) Accessories] mlin:
Interesting, I was looking at buying the CF case. I have a question for you, are the volume buttons more easily triggered with the dual pro case? I had a silicone case from VZW and with the protrusions for the volume buttons, they became way too easy to hit and I was constantly adjusting ringer volume when I didn't want to.
[One (M7) Accessories] IronMan1289:
Quite the opposite really. The silicone used as the first layer of this case is a bit more stiff than I found with other cases. The buttons are actually as tactile or "clicky" as they were when I got the case.
[One (M7) Accessories] 91ludesit:
I actually really like this case, looks like when it inevitably gets scratched I can fix it up.
[One (M7) Accessories] Medfordite:
I have the same case, the buttons are hard to push in for volume. I have read where super glue on them on the inside helps to make it easier. Has anyone tried this?

How will this affect battery life? specifically turning off the animation bits?

Scribbled with my S-Pen
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
I've not fully tested the quantity of decrease in battery life with all this modifications.

I'm sure that the increase of general responsiveness and the better scrolling will bring some penalties in the battery life. I'm gonna test this in the next days, to see how it really affects..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Notrega:
It would seem that turning off the animations would increase the battery life.

Scribbled with my S-Pen
[Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
I would not recommend turning on "force gpu rendering." Some apps will not open or work correctly with this checked. It may also cause your device to run hot and drain your battery faster. There is no real word benefit to having it turned on.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
Yepp, removing bloatware, disabling animations and installing greenify will boost your battery life..

Forcing the GPU rendering, removing the scroll cache and playing with the several "pimp my rom" parameters may decrease your battery life..

I'm gonna do a following in battery consumption this next days and see how much impacts in battery life..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
Ok I'll remove it from the guide. I've really noticed an increase in the back temperature of the device. :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sewe:
Is greenify so good as it sounds?

SM-N9005 via Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
It's real useful with Rogue Apps that remain active in all circumstances.. Greenify put them in hibernation (like iOS multitasking) not consuming then battery and resources..

This way you can control the "sometimes" dangerous Android Multitasking, only allowing in background the apps you really want..

I think it's really useful in the Note 3 due to it's huge performance.. you never notice if an app has been hybernated or it's actually running in background, the CPU wokes both of them nearly instantaniouslly.. and you gain in some cases real battery life..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sewe:
Sounds good, some questions though

Is it possible to grennify apps that is schedule to run every night?

Are there any consequences to hibernate system apps?

SM-N9005 via Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dallastx:
Grennify apps that need to run on a schedule will cause them not to run on schedule. All greenify does is keep apps from running till you manually click on app.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
Yepp.

You also have the option not to Greenify that apps.

I only have problems with "Google Keep" notifications, Whattsapp, Gmail, etc, don't give any problems at all..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
I've made a very short Youtube video showing Greenify:

[Galaxy Note 3 General] MohJee:
How does disabling scrolling cache improve performance? Mind elaborating? Not doubting just curious. I'm assuming since it comes enabled by default that it serves a purpose.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SrTapir:
Sincerely I don't know for sure, but the old customized ROMs and the new one's have it disabled to boost performance.. :confused:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdourado:
Hello,

I have been using an iPhone 5 for the last year. I have enjoyed the phone but now I think I am ready to return to a Nexus.

I say return because before the iPhone I had a Galaxy Nexus.

I was set on swapping my iPhone 5 for a 5s, but the sensors issue has placed my purchase of the iPhone on hold and during this time I have became increasingly excited with the Nexus 5.

Since I have been using the iPhone for so long, I have a ton of stuff that I need to move to the Nexus 5, and this is why I am writing this post.

Since you all here know much more about android than I do, I am hoping for some guidance on my doubts about migrating from the iPhone to the Nexus.

Here is what I need. Can you please tell me if it is possible and how to do it?

Photos and videos - I have more than 2000 pictures on the iPhone camera roll and 30 videos I took over this past year.

They are stored in the camera roll. No albums and no folders. They are sorted by date taken and are all geo-tagged.

I would need the same on the nexus. All this directly in the camera roll and the geo-tagged preserved. New pictures taken with the nexus would add to these ones. Say if my last image is IMG_2000.jpg, the first taken with the Nexus should be IMG_2001.jpg

Call Log - For work related reasons, I would need to preserve my call log on the nexus and have the calls on the nexus add to the existing log.

SMS Messages - The same. I would need to import all my threaded messages from the iPhone to the Nexus and have them associated with the same contacts so that they would proceed from there.

Contacts and calendar - I Have it on iCloud. I guess I would have to export from iCloud to Google and then sync Google with the Nexus.

Mail - I have a gmail account. No problems there. I also have an iCloud account. They are both synced to the IOS mail app at the same time.

Can I sync both accounts to the NExus gmail app?

Whatsapp - I need to have the chats from whatsapp. Maybe export them from IOS and Import them to Android?

Real Racing 3 - I have quite a good career on RR3. Can I back it up and restore it to Android?

Angry Birds Star wars - Same. Have completed all levels and am 3 starring them. WOuld like to continue on the nexus and not have to start over.

That is it basically. If I was to get an iPhone 5s, I would use iTunes to backup my 5, and then restore to the 5s and would have all I stated above on the new phone.

Can I do it from the iPhone to Nexus?

I would really like to try a Nexus, but I am so deep with the iPhone after a year that if I can't move some stuff, it will be a deal breaker unfortunately.

Hope you can help me out.

Thank you.

Regards!
