[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fishingfon:
Hi all,

I have read on some other forums that people have been able to get NFC payments working with Google Wallet in Australia.

My n4 is running stock rooted 4.3.

I was just wondering if someone knows how i can get it working?.

As i can only find guides that are a few years old.

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Corey

Upon reboot of my phone (Mobilicity, Canada) I found a few popups on the screen, who repeatedly appeared and I was not able to use the phone at all. Then I tried to "wipe data/factory reset" it but it did not work at all and when I checked the log using "view log" I could find that many of the partitions were non-accessible or non-existing or similar. Then I tried Odin and Heimdall One-Click, one after another to update/change the ROM but every time it failed with PIT parition failure. Later on I fixed it with the PIT re-partitioning using PIT file on ODIN. Then afterwards it failed on both the tools on the MODEM replacement/fix. I tried PHONE.TAR update but it failed every time.

I am very very upset now and tried a lot online, but still no luck. Please help

Hi,

I got the Wizard and since I've bought it I've been looking for some places to find software but no luck. I know some great channels on EFNET where I used to download software for my Nokia 6600 but no I'm stuck.

Any suggestions?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JanetPanic:
If you are looking for freeware try http://www.freewareppc.com/ it has quite a selection. MortButtons and TCPMP are two of my favorites.

If you are looking for commercial software try http://www.handango.com or http://www.pocketgear.com they have quite a variety of apps available.

If you are requesting for locations to acquire commercial software for free I would suggest going elsewhere. Most of the community at xda-developers, including myself, take a dim view of illegal copying of commercial software. I will assume that was not what you were requesting though, so the links above should get you started.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_XaFFaX:
Hi all,

I have a strange issue with one mobo for i9000 and I thought that maybe someone will be able to help with that. I have not been able to find any solution on the forum or anywhere else. The problem is that the speaker generally works - when I change the ringtone or notifications, the sound gets through it, however it does not play any sound when playing multimedia type of sound (so in games, or when changing multimedia volume in settings). When I connect headphones, the sound works ok for multimedia. Does anyone have an idea on what is going on with it? I have never seen such an issue, is there any way o fix it?

Thanks,

XaFFaX
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeetu:
Try to change your rom if problem still there then it must be fault in speakers then go to service centre. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakymod2120:
It confused me, that you write the speaker sounds normal ...

Are you using BigMEM or something which breaks some kernel-libs for multimedia???:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_XaFFaX:
Yeah, the sound gets through it when I select different ringtones, but not when playing multimedia. However when I connect headphones, all is ok.

Currently the phone was wiped clean and installed stock rom using Odin, so I assume if there even were modifications like those you mention, those should be all gone now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakymod2120:
Hmhh strange:

When you are using stock rom and the problem still exists it should be a hardware problem with the speaker maybe with some frequencies???

Because when you use your headphones erverything works okay, so the is produced by the kernel-drivers ...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_XaFFaX:
Ok so I have managed to trace the problem. It turned out that international version of i9000 has a different sensor/headphone connector than the SC-02B I have. I have ripped off ;) the sensor/headphone module from original leftovers of the screen and connected it to the board and launched the phone. All sound works fine then, no issues whatsoever. Youtube works, ringtones work, even the light sensor works (it did not when I tested it on the international board). So this is it guys. Probably the same problem is with wifi - there are different board connectors and the antenna is not connected, hence low signal.

Thanks for your replies and help, much appreciated!

Is there a way to enable mass storage mode, so a Windows computer recognizes the Maxx as a USB drive, not a media device, add it won't try to install software?

There's a public computer at the courthouse I'll sometimes use to print documents. My secretary will draft something, convert it to PDF, then upload it to Dropbox.

In the past, I could just download the PDF to the SD card on my Bionic and the computer would open an autorun window where I could choose to open a Explorer window.

Now the Maxx tries to install software on the computer, which the security on the computer won't allow. It will connect as a multimedia device, but not as a simple storage device.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] rogiervw:
Thank you for reading this post.

I have a QTEK S110 and are very happy with it, but today the backlight stopped functioning! I don't know what went wrong. If I look at the settings under Backlight - Brightness, the bars shows that the backlight should be on. But it isn't.

I didn't drop the phone, so I would expect nothing is wrong with the screen. And apart from the backlight, everything is performing as normal... If I press the power button for a longer while (to switch the backlight on/off) however, I see that the LED's under the 'dial'-button and 'stop dailing'-button go on and off, suggesting the phone got the message, but not the backlight...

Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Regards, Rogier

[HTC Amaze 4G] goorpy:
Hello ladies and gents,

I am trying to help my fiancee revive her completely dead Amaze. This phone, unlike my own, is completely stock. No recovery or ROM flashing or S-off etc. It's straight from Wind Mobile (though around 22 months old at this point).

What happened: Phone was low on battery, so it was left plugged in to charge. Seemed fine. Going back to it a couple hours later, and it was died, which was odd since it was plugged in. Now it does not turn on at all (no HTC or carrier splash, recovery boot [vol down + pwr] does nothing), and the LED behind the speaker does not illuminate to indicate charging (no flashing, either).

Plugged into my computer, I get the "QHSUSB_DLOAD" device identifier, but using the brickdetect.sh script from the Unbricker thread doesn't detect anything. Likely because this has nothing to do with S-off bricking, but since I found that thread via the QHS string, I figured trying to detect it was worth a shot.

I would really love to be able to revive this device. The fiancee is back in school right now, so my income is the only one. Spending several hundred dollars on a new phone is just a kick in the pants while trying to manage already frightening wedding-related expenses. :/

What I have tried:

- Tried cleaning the battery terminals (battery and phone side) on my device

- Tried charging both on USB and wall charger for several hours (no change, no LED, no boot, no recovery boot)

- At my carriers store, I tested a known-good battery in our device, same behaviour

- Tested our battery in a known-good Amaze, after after a longer initial charge (battery was completely flat), that device booted with our battery.

- Tried booting into recovery, no luck

- Tried following steps in several other XDA Amaze and Sensation threads, and didn't get anywhere.

- I've ordered a new battery and external charger, but I'm not hopeful due to the above testing

What I haven't tried:

- Because I am still trying to get my Credit Card Extended Warranty to cover repair replacement, I have not opened the insides of the device. This thread proposes removing and replacing a battery on the mobo to get it to reset itself. I have not tried this yet.

- Anything to do with JTAG. While I've flashed ROMs and such myself many times on my own devices, I've never ventured into JTAG territory before.

What I want to know:

- Primary: What else can I try to diagnose what is wrong with this Amaze, and if it is recoverable?

- Secondary: Unfortunately we have photos on the internal memory (not SD-card) that are not backed up. If the phone cannot be revived, is there any way for me to get into the internal storage to try to recover those photos? This would be more of a challenge project. We can live without the photos, though she'll be disappointed. I'll be the hero if I can get them back, even if it means destroying the device permanently.

Thanks in advance for anyone who may have suggestions. I'm heading to bed for the night, but I'll check this tomorrow and test out any theories.

Does anybody have any theories I can test out aside from some sort of hardware failure on the mainboard?
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdar_93:
What OS are you running on your computer. Try looking for the device in Ubuntu, maybe it'll find it there.

Windows 8 and 8.1 have issues with the drivers and software.
[HTC Amaze 4G] goorpy:
I'm using Windows 7 (64-bit), but I also tried using the Ubuntu 10.04 based Live CD (PHToolz?) from the Unbricking thread, and it didn't detect anything at all (tried with and without automount enabled).
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdar_93:
Reading what you said again, I'd say that it's a manufacture defect. It could be a wide list of things actually, hard to pinpoint.

In regards to recovering your photos and other files on the phone's storage itself, I don't think you can recover it at all.

The best bet right now is to get it exchanged if it's still under warranty (I'm assuming you didn't void the warranty by unlocking bootloader, attaining S-Off or flashing any custom roms/kernels/incompatible zip files e.g. A rom meant for another phone)

If it has warranty, don't give up hope.

Hello,

Unfortunately I have dropped my Galaxy S4, however the screen did not shatter. It only has small scratches on it, however the screen does not work and it won't turn on. The phone turns on and the home, menu and back buttons work however the screen does not display anything and it seems to be unresponsive. Everyonce and a while, the phone also makes a really loud, siren like noise and vibrates. I am guesing that this might be because of the low battery. I would really apprecaite it if anyone could tell me what to do and if a screen replacement would work.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] 1mecha1:
Hello all,

I am experiencing a very weird volume issue. I'm debating sending the phone in for the insurance, but I heard that this phone has stopped being sent back as a replacement, my buddy with the same one had to pick a different one. So I would like to find a workaround

Problem:

The volume is inconsistent, very much so, but only at very intermittent times, sometimes frequently. It starts at one of the two levels, low and high, and switches between the two sometimes 5 times in a few min or once every few day. it occurs across every application and every re-install of the venom rom.

It is a problem because 1. it is annoying, and 2.I have a very loud sound system in my car.

Normal loud listening volume is around 20-23 out of 35. i can turn it all the way up with no distortion and it is extremely loud at this point, loud enough to damage ears easily. When I turn it up that loud(at festivals) I like to wear earplugs in it. When I'm just driving I don't need it that loud, but I always ride to taste with the volume. Sometimes i don't look at the volume level on my car, the volume on my phone is up all the way but it has decided to take a low level to start today. While driving and not looking at the volume, just listening to it, i will usually set my volume at 33-35, then the phone decides to jump to it's loud setting making me cringe and swerve in pain and surprise as I sound like a rattling venue driving around. I have mostly solved this by just using my ipod. But I really like having spotify and pandora in there. plus android kicks ass, my ipod feels like a backup hard drive in it's waterproof case

Have Tried:

Pushing volume button up(does nothing when low)

Rebooting

Re-installing os

Bluetooth vs aux (both same problem)

resetting Bluetooth connection

removing and and pushing in headphones

placing a call

Guess:

it appears to not affect calls or ringer volume, just media volume, even speakerphone is unaffected. my guess is something in the audio processing section due to it affecting bluetooth and aux out. I have ruled out speaker, installed programs, connection type, time of day, specific mp3's, temperature, movement and what i'm doing on it. It is really stumping me, usually I can figure out what is broken on the inside of things hardware related, but I don't know the inner workings of this phone exactly.

Would like:

To know what is actually going on. A fix would be awesome, but I mainly want to know what it could possibly be. It has confused me for too long.

To know if the phone can be replaced for the same model to hold out until next summer

Would not like:

To be told to just get a new phone. I like this one and the rom on it. plus i already paid for it and a new battery. i will live with the issue until next summer if need be

Any ideas?

Which media player are you using? Since it only occurs during media playback perhaps a different media player will give you some insight
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] 1mecha1:
I usually use power amp.

Though the problem occurs across that, the stock media player, Pandora, spotify, youtube, flash videos. pretty much everything except for calls and ringer.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Try using a app that (re)sets the volume every time you connect to the radio via Bluetooth. I use a car dock that automatically launches my car app (car home ultra) when the phone is inserted, and the app then automatically sets the Bluetooth media volume to a preset volume every time.
