yep... SPB Pocket Plus causes crashes... :x

Just tried to install the SPB pocket plus 3 on my xda Exec, and after quite a few failed installation attempts -- I should have stopped there -- where for the first time in over a month (when attempting to instasll new s/w) the installation consistently failed. I took a break and decided to have one last go.

This time it did work. During the installation it warned me about installing it on the Storage card: that the card driver has to be initialysed prior to activation of the prog.

The installation finished.

Well after that I tried to open the prog... it didn't work, and the device wasn't responding.

My next step was a soft reset, but it halted in mid-process.

There followed a few attempts again of soft reseting the device - but it kept halting at the same stage...

So for the first time - after testing my device for over a month with many programs - I needed to do a Hard reset :!: :x

This is really annoying! I have read before that SPB is slightly problematic and slows the device down... to put it mildly - I am NOT impressed :!: :!: :!: :evil:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
I saw on another thread about Pocket Hack Master for overclocking the Universal. You might want to give it a try.

I also tried SPB Pocket plus, but was dismayed by how slow it made my EXEC. I deleted it off in less than a minute.

jus recieved my new xda exec from o2 this morning. Installed corporate settings and keeping all 3rd party apps off for the mo and see how it runs. Will keep you guys posted.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _saiko:
I successfully configured EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) for my business email.

I'm experiencing a problem though - there's no new mail notification if the message arrives

outside

inbox.

For messages that arrived in the inbox, notifications work.

The messages DO get pushed/synced in both cases.

If the message arrives directly to another folder I see the msg count increment in the folder list (thus push works) but there's no notification.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Just to clarify, I know other folders beside inbox don't sync (push or periodic check) per default so I specifically enabled push for a certain folder.

I'm running CM10.2 (Android 4.3) nightlies.

Email and Exchange apps (com.android.email, com.android.exchange) are version 4.1 and 5.0 respectively.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] adsada arc:
God its annoying, coming from the Xperia S it was easy to get a protector on with no bubbles. It just went on the problem with the Xperia T I think is that the edge is raised slightly so even if you're a little bit out it will bulge at the sides. I bought them cheap off ebay so maybe they're not the correct size, but its pretty irritating and I have put many a screen protector on so have some pretty good knowledge and technique to applying them.

Any advice? Is this well known issue with the phone?

cheers
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] romcio47:
I have Zagg screen protector applied for... 8 moths now and a cheap silicon case since I bought the phone. The screen protector is little bit smaller than the screen so it leaves about 1,5 millimeter of space in the left, right, bottom of the screen and some more on the top. I am really proud of this screen protector and I advise you buying one. It's not cheap but they have their replacement program (if you send them your old ZAGG protector back, they will send you another only charging you for the letter). I already used one replacement - I applied the protector without reading any instructions and I ended up with many many bubbles. But with my next try I read their instructions, video and used the cleanest room in my house (it's pretty important IMHO). Now everything is good, no bubbles at all. I guess you would have to find correct protector, not the cheap one because it will always be something not right.

My phone is T. Xperia T.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mr_torture:
You definitely have an bad quality protector. I applied protector that I get with Xperia T, and it went smooth on first try, like never before. Your problem is protector dimension, as it seems a bit oversized. It should not cross the edges of display, and my three reserve protectors I have for my T are not crossing it either, just like original one. The only solution for you, is obvious solution, go for other protectors. Nillkin ones are good protectors too, but are rare on eBay, with just a few sellers.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
The quality from China can differ dramatically. The cheapest ones usually are cut badly, don't apply easy, leave bubbles, have rainbow effects, and peel off easily. But some of the cheapos are not bad. I had most success by ordering medium priced ones from Hong Kong. The Zagg one sounds interesting but the price is too high.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] adsada arc:
Yeah the zag ones are tempting but I'm not spending that much on screen protectors lol

it's just I've bought many off ebay for my previous xperias and never had an issue with oversizing, it doesn't seem to be too large its just that it need to be applied PERFECTLY I think, which is near about impossible...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Order here http://stores.ebay.com.sg/Rocky-Mobile?_trksid=p4340.l2563 . They are all-right for the price, though there is some rainbow refection.

Thanks for your time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FelixPg:
Is it possible to upgrade to Jelly Bean? Some help please! :/

It would help to put up what kind of Android version you're on. Just simply putting your kernel version doesn't help at all.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] david_hume:
Dude, you ARE on Jelly Bean. Android 4.1.x - 4.3.x is all Jelly Bean.

As for changing the kernel version, there isn't much of a choice for Android 4.1.2. You'd have to root it and use a different Android version if you really want a different kernel version (doesn't matter honestly).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bbolton_98:
Read about rooting and unlocking boot loader , flashing a Rom, and updating your bootloader (modem). I like 4.1.2 Roms, Obsessed Rom, TKRom, Clean 7 Rom, and Synergy. Each have themes that are great. Read up on rooting, unlocking boot loader, flashing Rom and changing basebands BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE. Each carrier and model is not the same so make sure you only follow directions for your specific device model and carrier, if not you will most likely have a paperweight. Good Luck.

Lean kernel , KT747, and a few others have 4.1.2 kernels available.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viruz32:
Ok so I've looked through some threads on the forums. I found plenty with "restoring htc one" in the title, but my circumstances are weird. I have a t mobile htc one I use in the USA. Recently, I unlocked the bootloader via htcdev, all went well. I used a video tutorial on youtube and followed along to root it. I installed twrp recovery and was about to install supersu, that's when things got weird. When I tried navigating to the supersu.zip file via recovery menu, all I see (up a level). After clicking that, I am taken to files like cache, data, dev, and so on. Nothing related to the files on my internal sd card. I didn't see supersu.zip either. So here I am, with a phone that has an unocked bootloader, twrp recovery and no root access. Ever since I did this, my signal has been randomly dropping and I can't get lte speeds anymore. What happened here?

I was wondering if anyone knew a tutorial that will restore my phone back to stock. I don't mean just stock firmware, I mean absolutely factory bone stock. No recovery, android 4.1.2. htc sense, the whole bit. I know I could just use one of the tutorials available in one of the threads I found, but every single one of them is related to a rooted phone, and mine is sort of in between. I don't want to risk bricking it or anything like that.

If you've made it this far into the read, congratulations you are better than 95% of the people I know. If anyone has a link to a tutorial like this, and it works exactly how I asked it to, I will send them $10 via paypal.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poshture:
Try plugging your phone into your PC, and in the files you can see, like Music, Movies etc, make a folder called Super and put the zip in there, see if once you go to recovery you can now find it, because to browse root don't you have to have SuperSU anyways?

I am new to this but idk, figured I would atleast try.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
I don't think there are some videos about this, however.

If you will fully restore your HTC One, you've to go S-OFF (with revone o rumrunners method) and flash a ruu for T-Mob.

However, you can always root your device.

Probably you have to navigate to "sdcard" in the screen of install of TWRP and after select supersu.zip or whichever ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viruz32:
Tried navigating to sdcard, but the folder is just empty. Also, it says internal storage memory: 0mb
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
Try to use the command:

adb push name_of_su.zip /sdcard/

and

adb push name_of_su.zip /data/media

and check if you can see the file or if you got an error.

p.s. You've to use a prompt where you have adb/fastboot and the file will be in this folder...

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beniroquai:
Hello,

just quick question. I'm trying to get into the camera API and need a specific function. I'm not into the Android programming - yet. But before I'm putting all my effort in learning how everything works I was wondering if the following is possible:

1.) Is it possible to get the actual value of the autofocus from the Camera of my Xperia Z (or any other Android Device, running 4.x)?

2.) Is it possible to set the value for the value of the autofus to a specif value? Like manual focus?

I searched a lot and I just found some functions to stop the autofocus or put in macro/infinity mode. Is there any possibility in putting it to a specific value? Or is the focus system hardware based? (manufactur specific)

Is there any ressource on how the autofocus of an android device works? I can't find anything.

Thank you very much in advance :)

Hi Guys,

Been using this great site for a while now but im not a great poster! lol Ive bought a Magician and it will be arriving tomorrow and just wondered if there is anything that i should be looking out for?

For example, what mods do you recommend? I.E Bluetooth Fix (may not exsist but just gave example) I cant wait to get it as ive used a few before and been very impressed!

Also does anyone have a link for TomTom 5 Cracked? would be much appriciated! :lol:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Koksie:
Hi, welcome to XDA DEV and congratulations with your purchase! If you search this forum, you will find many fixes and mods that have been applied to speed up the magician (through registry edits), gain extra memory (BigStorage is a good one!), improve the BT stack, remove the Simlock etc etc. Just look in the Magician forums and you will find many tweaking hapiness there. Be sure to back-up first before applying any mod, since they might cause a hard reset and data loss. Please DON'T ask for illegal software here, there is enough of that to be found on the internet, but not in this community. We like to tweak and mod things, but intend to do nothing illegal here. If any software or hack here is illegal in your country, don't use it.

Have fun with your new Magician!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jaso2005:
Thanks for the welcome Koksie! Ive been having a browse though and thought that maybe it would be good to get a Top 10 things to do to your magician?

Just thought it would be handy for people like me that are new to the magician.

Can someone explain what bigstore is please? Sounds great.

BTW it hasnt arrived yet :( its scheduled before 1pm though! :D
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Koksie:
Do a search for BigStorage, it involves flashing your Rom with a custom made one you made yourself. You can use the ROM that came with it ( if it is a new one, you will get the latest ROM I presume) or with a newer one ( if yours is a second hand device and has an older version. 1.13 is the newest one at the moment. Check in your start-settings-device information) Since a flash removes all your data, the best thing is to do it before you put any programs and information on it. basically it deletes the Extended ROM ( where your provider puts all its settings) and merges it with the internal storage, adding 20 MB extra of ROm storage, in other words, another 20 MB extra of memory that will not be deleted in case of empty battery. Another advantage of 20 MB of extra ROM is that you save another 20 MB of RAM (by ebanling you installing aps to ROm instead of RAM), so your Magician will be much faster and less battery consuming. Search for BigStorage and the method (including backing -up the Extended ROM for later use) will be explained in detail in several threads.

Same goes for removing the Simlock or extending the BT profiles. Just search for the right terms and the methods will pop-up.

Other worthwile apps are DKToday, BT SwitchIt, tel-on-off, AEBPlus and MortButtons. Check these out, they are very usefull apps. Many registry tweaks are also posted, they help to speed up your magician, change behaviour of applications and settings etc. You are right that a top 10 would be helpful, but just searching the forum will help a lot. for regedits serach for "registry edit magiacian"and I am sure helpful threads will appear.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] psych0t1c:
I was in the same position as you are, as I recently switched from an XDAI (Wallaby) to the Magician.

Here are some things to consider and do.

1. You will definately fall in love with the device if you are a bit like me or the rest of the people here. You will want to use a long time, so before you go and use the device regularly, GET A SCREEN PROTECTOR. Even if it is just a cheap one to start with, protect the screen.

2. The regular Bluetooth stack is pretty unimpressive. It works OK, but does not offer a lot of options. If you are going to use BT get the CAB install that has just recenty popped up and is currently being discussed here. You can download in that thread, then you have a ton more options regarding BT.

3. The camera on my O2 branded device is crap (blue speckles in low light conditions). There is a fix out there to solve the problem a little bit. The ultimate solution is to install a updated camera software from T-Mobile devices which is more recent. I am still looking for a way to do this, have not dived into the topic completely.

4. If you are using your PPC device a lot, especially if you are using a large SD-Card for file storage one day or the other you will face the need of hooking up yur device to some friends computer to exchange some files. This is not easily done unless the other computer has ActiveSync running. To do this easily you can use Softick Card Export, which is a little tool that enables the Magician to act as a Mass Storage Device. When the program is enabled you just use your friendly USB cable to hook up to the other computer and your Magician is instantly connected without drivers (if it is a W2K+ or XP machine or something like this - Win98 will not work instantly).

5. Always carry a small USB cable with you. I love the possibility of charging my device whereever I find a USB port.

6. Software I will not leave home without:

- Wisbar Advance2 / Wisbar Advance Desktop plugin

- Total Commander

- Registry Editor of choice

- Memmaid

- Pockettools

- Sprite Backup

- Destinator PN (if you are going to use it as a GPS)

- Pocketmusic for mp3 playback

- Phonealarm plugin

- Some calendar plugin giving a good oversight of tasks and appointments

- eWallet (for keeping confidential info such as PINs etc. encrypted)

- Mobipocket Reader with a recent offline version of Wikipedia

- Pocketmechanic

- phonExt (better Dialer)

- RESCO Audio Recorder (allows mp3 recording)

- PhonePad chooser (customize the PhonePad design)

That should get you kind of started. Oh, wait, after I did the BigStorage hack I also replaced that butt-ugly O2 splash screen (screen displayed when you power on the device or do a soft/hard reset) with a selfmade one saying "hacked" and displaying the 18c3logo.

7. Get Pocket Zen Phone - it only costs €5 and allows you to have multiple profiles, flight, office, car, etc for different situations - just click the icon on the Today screen. Get it here: http://zendrui.free.fr/

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
This discussion is going on on another thread as well.

I use PA, it's got a lot of features that I like.

To be fair, I've not used PZP much because I didn't think that it did more then PA that was relevant to me.

I've set up PA with profiles on my Today screen, which seems to be what PZP is good for:

The SGS4 fits nicely in my larger that normal hands. i still have a few months before i have to decided but the more feed back the better
