[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoMeir:
So I'm not sure how these happened but I've been noticing some (what looks like) cracks in my screen. The odd thing is I've never dropped this one (as of yet) and the cracks are only visible when I'm in a dark place and the color over the "Cracks" are black or dark grey. Does anyone have any idea what these are or how they got there? I would take a picture but they really are not visible except in the dark. The most common time I see them is when I get the loading screen for netflix. They seem to be all around the edges with one or two small ones towards the center.

Thank you in advance for any insight into these I just want to figure out this mystery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoMeir:
Also I'm wondering if this could be a defect of some nature and if so I will take it back to AT&T but I only have another month to figure this out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoMeir:
Nobody at all not even a suggestion/theory?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BR7fan:
I I'd just take it back to AT&T and let them figure it out.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] djd1520:
Prior to updating to Android 4.3 I would always get the "com.htc.bgp has stopped unexpectedly" error message following each restart. After updating to 4.3 that specific error message stopped appearing, however two new error messages have starting popping up post-update. These two new error messages seem to be related to a couple of other issues I am experiencing which are that I cannot change my ring-tones or notification sounds. When I attempt to do so in settings there is no response when I select (tap) either one to change the tone.

The reason I say they seem to be related is because both of the error messages appear when attempting to change sounds. The first occurs when I select "notification sound" for text messages from the settings tab in the 3-dot menu in the top-right corner of the "All Messages" screen. The second occurs when I try to change the tone for the alarm in the clock app. Basically at this point I cannot change any of the phone's sounds for ring-tone, notifications and alarms because I either get no response, as described above, or an error message. I did notice that I still have the ability to change tones within the gmail app.

Has anyone else experienced this subsequent to the Android 4.3 update? Any ideas how to fix this? A simple restart did not correct the problem. BTW I am not rooted.
[Java for Android App Development] dalf:
Hey,

Maybe a stupid question, but I can't find the answer.

I created an application, I have some images res/drawable-...

I can create an apk, ready for release and I can install it on my phone.

When I open the apk (with winzip for example), I can see the folder "res" and all the images. I can extract these images on my computer and see them.

Are images not "compiled" or "compressed" ?

When I look here: http://developer.android.com/tools/building/index.html, I think with "aapt", the resources are compiled.

But not in my case. What am I missing ?

Thanks

ps: when I check "yes this thread is a question", I have this message "This is not a Q&A forum. By posting questions in this forum you are breaking the forum rules." But I'm in Coding Discussion, Q&A, and Educational Resources > Java for Android App Development :confused:
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
That's normal. ;)

An apk file is an archieve like zip files. So everything is just compressed.

As far as I know, aapt just compiles resources written in xml (like layouts or menus) and creates all necessary IDs.

If you want to hide the images, you can try this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11735198/how-to-hide-images-of-apk

And it is the right forum. It's a bit confusing, I know. ;)
[Java for Android App Development] dalf:
Thanks you for your answer.

Good to know that.
[Windows 8 General] syngamer96:
Hey guys, really need help here. Honest noob here so please try to understand my situation. I updated to Windows 8.1 to see what were the changes but unfortunately I realised I didn't have my activation key, so I decided to use a program called Windows 8.1 Key Finder Ultimate just to see all the features before buying the key ( I don't have money, I'm just a poor student)

So I installed it, and clicked on it. Then it prompted me to install again, which I found peculiar. So I scanned the exe and nothing was wrong. I installed the thing and tried to run it, but it did the same thing so I tried KMS activators instead. From KMSAuto Pro to KMSPico, nothing worked. Something I did along the way triggered a sound driver to install, and it definitely wasn't a Realtek driver, which is my soundcard manufacturer. I didn't really pay much attention as it was 2-3am, and I assumed it would just stop installing due to conflicts with the real driver.

Decided to sleep, went to school at 7, came back home and decided to turn on my laptop to listen to my new CD. No sound. I assumed its just WMP having issues with the CD, so I tried my other players. Nothing! Decided I should try to see the speaker settings and check vol. etc but I can't play any test tone, with the computer telling me "Failed to play test tone". I panicked for awhile but went on a solution hunt. I tried everything from a clean boot to driver update to uninstall then install, disabling audio and re-enabling, so many and nothing works. Five hours later I'm here desparate to find answers from the gurus. (I realised I have no restore points, which is really idiotic of me...)

I remembered the sound driver that installed itself, so I intended to find it and murder it. But being the noob I am, I don't know how to find the right thing in event logs and all the mumbo jumbo. Is there a way to see what changed recently, or installed recently (not only programs) or even what was running a certain periods of time (don't say task manager because I'm not looking for what's running but rather what RAN). Also, are there any ways to see all drivers installed apart from device manager and isolate them to diagnose the issue at hand?

Any solutions provided to me is greatly appreciated, and should be free is possible. I don't have any money on me and I can't find a job to support myself due to school, so please understand that this laptop is really valuable to me and I need all the help I can find here. If any other detail is needed I'd gladly provide them. And please don't condone me for my mistake and stuff, I'm still learning as I go along...
[Windows 8 General] mcosmin222:
You can use the reliability monitor under control panel >system and security>action center >maintenance to see a nice time line of events.

If you have a key for windows 8, you can easily and freely update to windows 8.1 using the store (you have to install all windows 8 updates first).

It is best to avoid using fishy .exes because they can damage your windows install and even install mallware.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MordyT:
Hi there,

I have a N7 (2012) with an issue.

First, I am familiar with fastboot, adb, etc. The tablet bootloader is locked (unfortunately), there is a stock recovery, and the tablet is running the stock rom (4.3, forgot the build number).

It has been working fine for months, but now when turning it on it goes to a black screen with just the google logo. It never displays the boot animation (the x).

I know for sure I could reflash the stock rom, but the tablet is my brothers and he really wants to somehow save his game progress (in games such as Jetpack Joyride, Temple Run 2, Iron Man 3, and one other).

I can’t…

….. flash any partitions (such as reflash system, boot, recovery, etc.)

….. boot a custom recovery (that has adb so I can do a adb backup)

…… boot the tablet to turn on usb debugging

…… do an adb backup from stock recovery.

I did however wipe cache from the stock recovery to no avail.

Before anyone says “check the drivers”, both fastboot devices and adb devices (fastboot in bootloader, adb in recovery, after selecting sideload update from adb) display the tablet.

Anyone have any ideas (or know if these games backup to play games somehow?) on how to save his game data?

Anyone have any ideas on how this happened? Since stock android should only be able to write to cache, userdata….. and not system, boot, etc… which partition has the issue?

Thanks in advance for all the help.

[Android General] karaman_deniz:
Htc desire sv has officially Ics 4.0.4 rom. And Htc will not give any upgrade to our device. They are saying that you can install a custom rom if you want. But there is no jb rom for desire sv. A lot of desire sv users try to port jb rom to our devices. But they didn't manage it. Because desire sv has Dual SIM. We thought that nobody can port a useful jb rom to Desire Sv.

But I saw that HTC product a new device that has dual sim card with Jelly Bean 4.1.2. And this device's name is Desire 500. Now I think that a big person, a great developer can port this device's JB rom to our Desire SV's. And we can have Jelly Bean rom.

Thanks.

Here is the rom of desire 500 for you to port it to desire sv: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6WBFlAKqe30QVNYelN1UzZhUHc/edit?usp=sharing

I AM HATING HTC FOR THIS. WHY DO THEY MAKE SENSE SO RESOURCE HUNGRY IF THEY CANT RELEASE UPDATE ON TIME. No wonder people prefer other devices from sammy or sony, as they get updates regularly. HTC just gets a new device instead of getting a new upgrade for a previous one..this was my last phone from HTC.
[Android General] karaman_deniz:
yes, thats right. Sony releases the upgrades for all of their devices. For example. xperia u.
[Android General] sehradinesh:
HTC is now hopeless

Agree with you. HTC used to be great with Windows phones, providing earliest updates to users. Now they just dont care of the updates. I bought the Desire SV just because of my previous notion. And now it seems HTC does not plan to upgrade D-SV to any newer version. Seems they are only upgrading their flagship phones. Too bad. No more HTC for me.
[Android General] cute_prince:
Hello guys, You can have JB rom but first you need to develop Linux kernel 3.4 or bring ION support to your existing 3.0.21 kernel. Only then, JB rom can boot on your device.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krucifix85:
I think 4.3 now has a developer option to enable root access. I think read through the installation guide for ChaOS, it should have the details.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jeroenqui:
Yes, you're right. In developer options select apps & adb for the option "root access". Good luck
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jeroen_76:
Unfortunately, mine is on that option, but still no root access. And superuser keeps crashing. Any other options?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] alias4ever:
I also have the same issue. I tried doing doing ADB and Apps for root access but no go. I open Superuser and it just comes up with a message saying "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!

Any suggestions anyone as I have tried 2 other ROM's with the same problem. :confused:

Have you tried restoring a backup that had root?

I figured it it. I don't know how I lost root as that has never happened to me before and I've been flashing ROM's for a long time. :) Honestly I lost root between formatting my Prime and installing this ROM. It's a mystery that's for sure. :rolleyes:

Wi-fi tethering does not work - i don't use it anyway

If i set a ringtone from music player, it won't ring - not a big problem

While i was talking on the phone someone else was trying to call me my SIM got dissconected. I tried to reboot, and i got bootloop. - this is bad...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ast00:
I applied a theme and got bootloop. And Badass has no logcat support :(
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
did u full wipe before installing ? also i tested the themes function before releasing, it is fully stable :)

i set PIN screenlock and got bootloop (well, actually not bootloop but everytime i unlock the phone, it restart itself)

and theme is not resize , am i wrong?

Today I found this problem →

...as you can see, there is no capture button???

p/s: I tried volume +, - or even lockscreen but it wasn't the capture button
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
@missyou_mylove

1. yes the lockscreen pin is not resized so its causing the bootloop. I will fix it in next release

2. can u try by replacing the current gallery app with a cm9 gal app ? please try and report ur result..others can do the same if the problem is solved..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] missyou_mylove:
maybe i will try replacing cm9 gallery app, but because i'm just a noob so i have to find ways to do it :đ
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] crullick:

[MENTION=4800603]missyou_mylove[/MENTION]: just put another camera/gallery apk in /system/app, set permissions to -rw-r--r-- and reboot (extract it from another rom <> preferably 4.0 and up, or download); snoop around, learn, it doesn't hurt :)

[MENTION=4677294]A_U[/MENTION] mayday, mayday >>> i don't get any deep sleep (reflashed kernel, then rom)! :eek: [haven't checked wakelocks though]

can you (and others) please check if it's my bad or.......
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
it has to be ur apps my friend..u know how sophisticated badass is.

possibly facebook or g+ or some other heavy app are the usual culprits..use some permissions revoking app [for ex- CM10.1 permission manager app] from playstore and disable wakelock for such apps. Enable them only when u use such apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] crullick:
it's a fresh install with only a few (basic) apps -- don't use any of those g+iga heavy fapplications

(smart keyboard, tb, performance control, clean master, s2e, aptoide << to be exact)

and those are the ones i used with other (venkatesh's and xdrdaniel's) miuis also with badass (1.9.2)

to be perfectly honest: i did mess around with system apps; but just replaced the file explorer, camera/gallery and deleted few bloats :angel:

i have unequestionable and absolute faith in you, so will try with a mint installation........

{oh god, here we go again :silly: }
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
the best possible way to find is use cpu spy and know urself what is causing the wakelock
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] crullick:
just dwnldd this little/interesting thingie: wakelock detector

will let you know if it's rom-related (or not)

any news [MENTION=4677294]A_U[/MENTION]?

had a couple of wakelocks by system (alarm manager + forgot the second one :silly:) referring to bad sync parameters and something else....

went back to venkatesh's miui (slimmed down and pumped up to my liking with deeeeeeep sleep)

waiting for the next update (if any) :fingers-crossed:

btw the wakelock detector app is great!

are u sure that ur apps dint cause it taking a wakelock and preventing from sleep ?

but anyways i will check into it..very busy these days, hope everyone can understand..
