[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zarycki345:
Title is kinda

self explanatory, for too long reasons to explain I don't have CWM Recovery so I have ADB and want to remove AT&T bloatware. Can I do this through ADB, without root? (Well I am rooted, but I'm stuck on stock so yeah). Without root? No. But you say you are rooted, and if you are, then yes. If you can do "adb root", you can uninstall them.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: OTA app

I am assuming that your phone is rooted...................

If you already downloaded a cwm/twrp flashable custom rom then skip the next line.

Download the stock based cwm/twrp flashable zip file rom. (if you don't already have it).

-----

With your computer find whatever filename you deleted in the zip file rom which

you have or will be downloading then copy the OTA file to /system/app in your phone.

After that reboot the phone and the OTA app should be functional.

Good luck!

I am just trying to change the lock screen wallpaper of my AT&T Galaxy S4 of MF3.

But there is just no way to use my own pictures. I've tried using systems settings menu and other gallery apps, but simply cannot find this function.

The way of using gallery app to set looks like missing, I can only choose from the stock ones.

In the system settings menu it's like this:

View attachment 2347965 View attachment 2347964

In gallery jb+ I can only set it to wallpaper:

View attachment 2347967 View attachment 2347966

I did a lot of search these days but cannot even find some one has the same problem as me.

I'm not using pattern or pin to unlock BTW.

Do I miss some simple steps to before setting? Or is there any walkaround possible to let my change it, like some plugins?

I just want change a lock screen wallpaper, can't believe can get stuck here.

[HTC One X+] Hurricanez:
Dear friends,

Because of warranty purposes I've got to send my HOX+ in before Friday evening.

I didn't thought that this would be such anoying as it is right now!

I tried to find a "Stock ROM", Stock recovery, and a way to relock my bootloader.

The main problem is that I'm unable to find me Nandroid backup.. I won't be appear again.

So my questions are:

Where to get a Stock rom?

What steps in which order do I have to do?

Please help! :(
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
You need to post you CID and bootloader version before anyone can help you.
[HTC One X+] Hurricanez:
CID: HTC_GER_102

Vers: 1.14.401.16

Due to the urgency, I already found someone, who was able to help me :)

For everybody else who need a Solution:

1. First of all, you should find out your CID (which indentifies the Branding and the country) and your Bootloader Version.

To find out CID:

Switch into bootloader, connect to PC, use fastbootcommand "fastboot oem readcid"

To find out version:

Switch into bootloader, connect to PC, use fastbootcommand "fastboot oem version-main"

2. GET THE CORRECT RUU!

There is something called "RUU" which stands for "Rom Upgrade Utility".

It will bring you device COMPLETELY(Rom -> Kernel, Recovery,) back to Stock!

WARNING: ALL DATA WILL BE ERASED!

Additional Information:

There's an easier way to get the build version.

In your Phone: Preferences - System - Software - More Information and read the Build Version.

IN MY CASE the build version readed by the fastboot command was different to that shown in my preferences on the phone!

IN THIS CASE CHOOSE THE FASTBOOT ONE!

3. LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER!

This is something I havent understood yet.. Anyway, it works :)

To do this:

Switch into bootloader, connect to PC, use fastbootcommand "fastboot oem lock"

4. RUN THE RUU (.exe) AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS

Your done :)

Thanks to everyone :)

There's a two year warranty?! I doubt my phone would be taken in even if it turns out it is still covered. Being overly sluggish is probably not a warranty claim. heh.

Good to know I don't need to go back to stock though if I do send it in. Thanks!

Help

I've only owned my exec a couple weeks and already I notice the pivot hinge loosening.

Has anyone tightened theirs? If so, any tips?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
Get in touch with HTC and see if its warrantied.

Likely just needs something tightening.

Altho I work in a customer service department for a laptop repair workshop and they would likely accuse you of having bent it the wrong way and class it as "Accidental Damage".

In which case you'd be getting a bill for a hinge (£12) and labour (£130).

You may find HTC are a little nicer than my lot tho. Hehe.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hazer:
Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to be able to unscrew the hinge myself, but I wanted to know if anyone's tried it themselves yet.

My other stupid question is; How do I get in touch with HTC? Anyone have a link? Can't google it.

I bought my unlocked O2 Exec new, but not from O2. I'm in the U.S. and I'm afraid they might not help me because I'm not a customer.

Nowhere I can just drive to for repairs either, because this unit isn't sold here.

Thanks again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] DaleReeck:
I don't have a loose hinge yet, but I'm sure we will all be at that point eventually. I noticed two small screws on the inside of the hinge (underneath the screen part) when you twist the screen half way around. I wonder if they do anything useful :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hazer:
I've noticed those screws as well. There's also a single screw on the base side. The base metal piece is the wiggly part on the non-screw side (right).

I'll wait another day or so to see if anyone has tried this yet. If I don't get a response, I'll hold my breath and give it a go.

If it works and I end up tightening my unit - great.

If not, then I've just made a very expensive mistake.

Either way, I'll update my post here with the results..

I can't be the only person with an exec/universal that has a loose lid. Pls excuse the pun.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
HTC warranty the product unless a third party warranty provider is nominated - which is very unusual in the first year tbh.

Normally you return to the point of sale and they will either repair it or replace it themselves and bill HTC or send it back to the manufacturer.

In this case the product is less than 28 days old? So in the UK you would be covered by the Sales of Goods Act 1979 and entitled to a repair or if you so choose an exchange. This would probably also be the case in some form or other in the USA, but I suspect since this was a product originally intended for the UK market (and if the seller was British) you would be bound by this law.

Since you're in the US you will likely have no warranty with the retailer ie. o2 since large companies often operate warranty services within the borders of the nation it was originally purchased in and never beyond.

So you're best bet is to contact HTC - whom are an international company - and they will assess the claim and arrange shipping to and from either a) an authorized local repair agent or b) back to the main repair and warranty facility in whichever country that is.

As far as I am aware you should definately either contact the point of sale if a large company and enquire as to the repair service route or just skip them compeletely and go for the manuafcturer.

For the European Union the warranty provider is: http://www.htceurope.com/

There doesn't appear to be one for the USA.

I'm sure there is but its likely going to be a case of shipping it back to Dubai or wherever anwyay so ping them some mail and see what they say.

Either way you must act quickly and keep a record of all correspondence.

In the UK we call consumer rights 'statutary rights' and the electronics world often goes far far beyond these in terms of warranty repair/s.

The only caveats are often companies assume that since you arent asking for or invoking your rights on a certain issue that they don't need to inform you of them. ;)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] craigiecraigie4:
YES, I have opened mine up & can give some insight. firstly it's all very robust and safe to open the hinge on the base side (have not opened screen side). it'a ALL metal - screw, plate u can see, & chassis screw goes into - so little/no danger of loosening things by unscrewing.

u will 1st find that the single screw on the base side may be half a turn loose. tightening it with a jewelers screwdriver will make a hug defferenc4e. possibly same benefit screen side but there r more screws there so I doubt it.

if u undo screw, base pops out as it hooked at one end, and thus only held by this 1 screw. u will find a nice, strong, ropey cable linking 2 halves - NOT a ribbon that breaks the moment u open this up - so safe again.

next, u can bend the plate slightly so that it sits lower in the middle. this makes a huge difference to screen looseness or play when in position. it's like tensioning a bow.

so, all very easy and safe FOR BASE SIDE. screen side looks way more delicate & hopefully someone will update this thread with similar info.

I found that when I dropped mine a few times, the screw came loose. a bit worrying cos it means a thread miust have skipped. but now I know that if the screw ever strips I can get it re-tapped by a jeweler and a new screw put in. there's enough chassis 4 this I think. please let us know how it goes.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hazer:
First let me say THANKS to Gubbs and Craigie!

Unfortunately it's now past closing time at HTCEUROPE, so I'll have to try and call them tomorrow.

I tried to take the pda apart and concur with Craigie regarding its simplicity. The wiggle in my Exec comes from the pivot and not the base plate with the single screw. I tried to remove the lid side plate by unscrewing the 4 screws that hold it, but it cannot be removed w/o spreading the plastic housing which holds the LCD. Scary.

There are 2 additional screws which bind the plastic housing (can be seen w/o taking anything apart). There are also 2 rubber inserts at the tip (tried, but can't pull out). So, my theory is that by removing the 6 lid screws and these rubber inserts, I'll be able to separate the plastic halves and remove the metal plate. Again...SCARY.

I'm hoping there's a screw which tightens the pivot. From what's visible it is made up from a press fit washer and a bent spring washer around a metal shaft. If there is a screw, it's on the side I can't get to. If there isn't a screw, then it's got to be another press fit washer used to hold the assembly together. I can use pliers to squeeze the opposite washers toghether if I can get to them.

If I have to, I'll send it to HTC. But I'd rather try and fix it myself to save the time lost and expense. Granted I should stay away from coffee or any other caffinated products before I do.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gooroo:
Just seen this posting by "stot" selling a replacement screen for the Universal, he gives a link showing instructions for stripping down the Universal, any help with tightening the hinge?

Thanks Stot!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stot:
When I did open up the screen there is no inherant way of adjusting the tension of the spring. It is basically a rivet with a curved washer that gets squashed and provides the tension.

Only thing I could suggest would be to squash the rivet section on 2 sides with a pair of pliars, or vice grips may be better so that you can set the pressure, i.e. close the vice crips and adjust them so that they are snug on the edge of the rivet, open them, adjust them closed evvver so slightly and then close them on the rivet. This will basically put more tension on the washers.

Its from the school of smack it til it works but its all I can think of.

Ill put some more pictures up of what I mean on that link shortly.

BTW. wanna buy a screen?! :wink:

Thanks

Stot
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gooroo:
I think it was the swivel action some were interested in any suggestions to tightening that mechanism? Photo's would be good too, or is that one a case of squash it with pliers too?

I dont need a screen myself sorry my friend :)

Hope you find a buyer!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] stot:
Hi,

Yeah Its the swivel I mean, not the opening mechanism. Pics are up you'll see what I mean.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] peteypye:
Hey,

It's easy tightening the hinge! Mine was lose, and when I say lose I mean basically spinning 360 degrees! So what did I have to lose... nothing. I took my Exec apart.

When you rotate your screen.. to the right of the light sensor and 'Xda Exec' text there is a grey metal panel, with a small standard 'phillips' screw in there. Undo this one screw, and the metal plate will lift of. In there you will find a thick cable that connects the screen and the hardware keyboard. Simply twist the wire up a bit (you'll understand what I mean) and then put the panel back on, screw it up, and the screen will be tight as it was new..

I have started to notice that the hinge is starting to get lose again - wait there and I shall do the above proceedure again (undo the metal plate, unwrap the cable, wrap it back up and screw up) - oh look it's tight as brand new.

Don't worry about loosing anything whilst un-screwing you exec, NOTHING pops out!

Good luck - you won't need it!

I'll keep an eye on the thread incase there is any questions.

Pete
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Melty:
That's a brilliant post Pete. When my hinge comes loose I will not have any fear about following your instructions. Luckily, the missus is an optometrist, so she has plenty of tiny screwdrivers, etc. Maybe I can get her to do it, that way if she breaks it, it's not my fault... :wink:

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dasABCD:
Hey guys,

after spending some time in the forum and not finding an answer to my problem I decided to ask you guys directly. So here is the situation I'm facing:

My girlfriends sister owns a S3 mini and it suddendly went dead. She tried to turn in on the other morning but there is nothing happening. No flashing of the screen, no sound, just plain dead. She did not install any custom roms or unlocked the bootloader or something. The phone is basically running with stock rom and there were no modification made.

So she asked me if I could help her with that.+

I tried then to enter download mode, as I read that that should be possible, but again nothin is happening. I tried to remove the battery for about 10 min and put it back in and tried charging it although the phone shows no sign that it is being charged when plugged in.

So this is when I started to search for similiar problems and found out that there is a problem with the S3 (not the mini) called "sudden death". but since I own a mini this seems impossible as well. Maybe you guys got an idea. Thanks in advance.

Oh and I tried a different battery as well. Nothing changed

I'm sorry to bring the bad news here :(, but she will have to visit a phone technician, it's a problem with the JTAG pads of the phone.
