[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AreOh:
I too have been looking for steps to wipe and return to stock. I think I disabled too many pre-installed apps and now sometimes Chrome won't open properly when clicking on links. I see the factory reset option under settings, but was too nervous to try that because I couldn't find anything on the net about if the internal storage is wiped. Not trying to lose all pics and such. For the Maxx to be a couple of months old I expected more when searching Google.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] km8j:
Factory reset doesn't actually seem to work....
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reggie14:
My understanding is that pwnmymoto hijacks the stock recovery, which is used when you do a factory reset. If you can figure out how to obtain and flash the stock recovery in fastboot then the factory reset would probably work. Though, if you're going that far, you should probably just restore to stock entirely.

This guide should help, and this thread can point you to a place to find the stock firmware.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] km8j:
What about for the Mini?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahjee:
you can easily return to stock, use RSD Lite computer program, just search it...or i can try upload it. After you get that app, make sure you have 7zip or something similar...after that, go to this site here > http://sbf.droid-developers.org/

there is a guide here but i may not be able to actually post...i am going to so i can help people who don't know how to return to stock...so, here it is

I was able to get my maxx back to stock with this: droidrzr .com/index.php/topic/28162-house-of-moto

I did a wipe with the twrp safestrap and hit something I shouldn't have. All I could do was get to recovery. Now she's good as new!
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahjee:
wait, so you have safestrap for your maxx?? is it compatible with the Mini and Ultra as well? they are all the same except batter so i am assuming it should be fine...
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyfred85:
Yeah it should. Check under Droid Ultra General then look for Safestrap! Link is in the second post. I'm still new otherwise I'd post it here.

Hi everyone, I need to restore to stock my Droid MAXX. Is it possible also with root? it doesn't go on fastboot mode pressing power+vol- , it goes on recovery mode. By the way, does the guide linked by ahjee works on droid MAXX? (sorry but I can't post links :( , it is the unbrick, unroot and restore link)

Wich firmware should I flash for MAXX? I have to edit the xml file?

This is my first motorola phone and I don't know how to do with this phone, until now I only flashed Sony firmwares with flashtool.

Thank you very much :)

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indecentspeech:
Background:

I have a Tmobile Note 3 on AT&T and all the APN settings for LTE are set accordingly. I do get LTE (see the little symbol in the status bar) and speeds are okay for the most part... but...

Issue:

I am over my buddy's house, he has a ATT Note 2 on ATT. We are checking speeds with the Speedtest,net App from the Play Store. His phone gets incredible speeds, averaging about 50mbps. My TMON3 gets 30mbps average and we tested it multiple times. We are using the same server, so that's not the issue. And we are literally a foot away from each other in his house. Then I start to notice something weird. When I go to the change server screen in the Speedtest app, the same server in Plainfield, NJ shows on my phone is 71 miles away. On his phone it says 52 miles away. Again, we are literally sitting next to each other. Then I look at the server list and there are servers on his phone that don't appear on my phone.

Also, I noticed when he loads the app for the first time, it locates the closest server much a bit faster than my phone does.

What gives?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indecentspeech:
I don't have any problems (at least not that I know of) with the GPS. The maps and navigation work fine and are very accurate.

I could be wrong, but I am speculating it is a tower issue where my phone isn't hooking on to the closest tower, since the server location seems further away to the Speedtest App. That's my guess anyway. Anyone else have a similar issue?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inmotion:
Same here. I think it has something to do with the routing of the internet through the hub for your area though as to what servers it's thinks are closest. Either way I have signal problems at work while my buddy sitting next to me on his note 3 (also AT&T) does not. Checked the cid and they are different. I'm thinking this means we are connected to different towers possibly. This is driving me nuts...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indecentspeech:
Wow, thanks for posting, I am glad I am not the only one.

Is your phone an AT&T Note 3 or Tmobile? The reason why I ask is I thought maybe this could be resolved with the build.prop mod posted by TEKHD.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inmotion:


mine is AT&T also. I should have been more specific on that.neither signal ids very strong as we work in a cinder block building. walking outside his get 90ish dbm lte I get 105ish dbm lte...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indecentspeech:
Right now I am getting -90 to -100dbm inside.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiser212:
I think know you 2 need to hug to get the exact result. 1 foot is too far away.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indecentspeech:
We tried that too. We even tried wearing the same pair of pants. I put my leg in one pant leg and he put his in the other. Still had a difference in signal. I was thinking about even taking a bath together, but then I thought that probably alittle too much. Plus it's not like we can take baths together all the time.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekerbuddyeker:
Maybe you need to root him
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agent:
I'm almost willing to bet if you try it at different times, perhaps reboot your phones at the same time you will get similar or vise versa results.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Limeybastard:
Good point mentioned about Cell ID. I just checked my wifes, she has ATT Note 3 and I have T mobile they showed the same.

I hope you manage to get this issue resolved as it would drive me insane, since network signal is main priority here.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inmotion:


I gave up out of frustration today. Went to AT&T for an exchange. First one they brought out was the same 10-15 dbm worse than the 2 display models connected on the same tower. I asked the sales guy to get another one and that I wouldn't accept that one for that very reason. Second one he brought out was much better. Display and my note 3 side by side were at 84dbm. My first one rarely got better than 100dbm. I walked out a happy customer the salesman was annoyed to say the least
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwiing:
Remember that it doesn't have to do with proximity to a tower. Getting high LTE speeds involves being within a mesh of several towers to achieve high speeds. I bet if you run multiple tests, you'll get varying results.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Limeybastard:
True dat. I always thought my slower than others lte speeds were because my signal was poor. Got close to the cell tower with full bars and speeds were the same.
[G2 General] ilovekitkat:
First post. Apologize if this is a repost, but the Verizon LG G2 is currently $50 off, for both on contract and off contract pricing. I'm considering buying it at full retail since those prices normally don't drop :D

Edit: I can't post the VZW link since this is my first post, but if you goolge "verizon lg g2" it should be the first or second hit.

Cheers!
[G2 General] Bigralphn:
I think they had to because of Amazon's $99.00 price. I complained last week and they gave me the new sale price though I no longer feel I did anything sober they probably knew the sale was coming. I should have paid the 35 restocking.
[G2 General] antawnm26:
wonder would ATT match that price drop to the ones that recently bought on?
[G2 General] Oaklands:
I just bought my phone 2 days ago. Will they honor that price since I am still within my 14 days?
[G2 General] darabo:
Try should, usually Verizon has decent customer service in this regard. Besides, what do you have to lose by asking? ;)
[G2 General] Oaklands:
I will try for sure.
[G2 General] Oaklands:
Called today and they credited my account for the difference. Thanks for letting us know about the reduction in price.
[G2 General] commzod:
on the website you can get an extra $50 off if you use promo code VZWDEAL. ordered mine today for $99.99!!!!
[G2 General] crashN2u:
Wow! So Sprint users are totally getting hosed. First, they have to be last to get it. They've barely been allowed to pre-order it. And the pre-order price is 199.99. If I was still on Sprint I'd be on the phone with customer service threatening to cancel my service.
[G2 General] bouchigo:
Did you purchase the phone in store or through customer service?

I tried to get the reduction yesterday, but they told me it either had to be purchased in store or through customer service to price match. I bought it online, so they said I couldn't get the discount.
[G2 General] droidiac13:
That's BS. I'd call ask a different rep.
[G2 General] Oaklands:
Bought in store. I can't see why it would make a difference if you bought it from Verizon.

---------- Post added at 01:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 AM ----------

Agree 100%.
[G2 General] crashN2u:
Because, depending on who you are talking to, they don't have access to the other systems. It's not universal. Ridiculous if you ask me, but is turning into the norm with a lot of businesses lately.
[G2 General] SeanRinVA:
Thursday, the Amazon price was $119.99 vs $149.99 at VZW. I started a chat w/ VZW and asked if they could match the Amazon price. The answer was no, but he'd give me a discount code worth $50, so I ended up ordering it Thursday for $99.99 plus activation fee and tax - $137 and change. It is due to arrive Monday.
[G2 General] bb12489:
I got my G2 for a grand total of $50 :D

Not really sure how I got it for that cheap.... I upgraded through my work place, and they said all I had to pay was $50 lol
[G2 General] lattiboy:
I still feel lucky. Paid $26 from letstalk a month ago. They actually honored the price, which was shocking.
[G2 General] rebelx:
I agree. I was about to preorder it, but I decided against and I'll wait for Sprint's black friday deals to upgrade instead. My only concern is that I'm on SERO and I hope that they don't mandate some weird pricing for us to limit discounts.

I don't mind waiting an extra two weeks from the release date if it means I can save $50 (hopefully) or so. It'll make a lower resale price (like everything else on Sprint) a bit more palatable. Plus, I'm selling my 4S, so I should come out to a wash with this upgrade cycle.
[G2 General] crashN2u:
It really is a shame. They're the 3rd largest carrier yet they act like they're further behind. One of the reasons I left. That and the roaming.
[G2 General] darabo:
I just want to say that thanks to this thread I was able to get $50 worth of credit onto my account.

Plus thanks to the 30% coupon during the unlimited data glitch sale I paid ~$160. (Which included a $30 upgrade fee which will be reimbursed later due to a promotion during that time as well).

So in the end I will have paid ~$80 for the phone and keep my unlimited data!

Once again thank you so much!

Help!

The power button on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (PT-7510 WIFI) is stuck in the depressed position. I must have pressed it to many times or pressed it too hard, whatever caused it I'm not sure. It still works if I press it hard enough but I don't expect it to function for very long and I'd like to fix it before it ceases functioning entirely.

Does anybody have any suggestions for how to repair this?

Has anyone ever had this problem?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hberntsen:
You could try remapping the power button to a volume button. While the device is booted you can then use the volume button as power button. When the tablet is turned off you would still need the real power button though.

Hi All,

I've tried to find this information because I am sure that it must have come up before but cannot seem to find it.

As the title says, I have SGH-317M Note II (rooted and unlocked already) and was wondering when choosing a ROM which ones are ok to load; The N7100 or N7105?

I haven't seen any SGH-317M specific ROMs so I assume that one of these two are the correct ones.

Any help is very appreciated.

D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
I believe your device is a LTE device.

So, it would be better if you use N7105, but you have to prepare the modem and kernel of your own device.

N7105 rom runs well on T-mob Note2, as well as the other way around, but with a proper modem and kernel of our own device.

That's what I know, and what I've tried (use T-mob ROM into my device), I'm not sure about your device.

But for safe, do backup of your IMEI / efs, in case corrupted during the flashing of custom ROM. at least, you will have a backup of your IMEI / efs to restore.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-Trixxx:
Hi antique_sonic,

Thank you for your reply. First of all, "Yes" my device is an LTE device so I will stick with the N7105 ROMs.

If I update the ROM on my Note2 will my Kernel and Modem change?

Or are you saying that when I load a new ROM I must update to a Kernel and Modem that works well with that specific ROM?

On my past Android devices updating the Modems and Kernels was always a separate choice if I wanted to update them and was never tied to a ROM. Is this different on the Note2?

Cheers,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
Sorry... I just read ur reply.

Most of lte custom tw rom will ask u whether u want to change or keep. I always choose to keep mine.

In case the rom u choose force u to change, u can always flash back ur own modem nd csc files.

But go and find the modem and csc for ur device nd region first to be safe in case things go wrong.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] mchinand:
I'm not sure what is at fault here (app, OS, etc) but I can reliably get my phone to reboot when it's connected to my Chromecast. It's a stock AT&T HTC One with the recent 4.3 update. When using Play Music connected to Chromecast, if I close the app (but not exit, it's still running) and then use the volume buttons, my phone will restart. Anyone have anything similar happen to them or can try to reproduce this with their phone and Chromecast? I'm not positive I ever performed these exact steps before upgrading to 4.3, but I know it never happened before upgrading to 4.3.
