Sorry for bringing this old post to top, But this thread saved a lot of trouble for me.

[Networking] DeadSilent001:
I have a major problem. I believe someone has hacked my android. It started almost a year ago and I didn't figure out what was going on until about three months ago. That is when I began to study penetration testing. What I have discovered is frightening. I run my android without a SIM card and I believe this is where the answer I seek is hidden but I cannot find the answer anywhere. When I do ifconfig I see tun0 running sometimes, but not all the time. I never opened an set tunnel and have no vpn running. I cannot kill the connection. I thought I was crazy when I heard my neighbor talking through the wall when he said something about hacking and using a code. But now I think I just have good hearing. Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
Hello,

I have a Nook HD and it has been rooted with CM version 10.1-20130615-unoffical-hummingbid - android version 4.2.2. A few times the device has said there are updates that I should download. In settings, I see two updates available CM-10.1.3-RC2 and cm-10.1.3. My question can I just hit the download button and it will update automatically? Which one should I download? Will I lose everything that has been downloaded and I will have to reinstall everything (not a big deal)?

Thanks in advance for the guidance!
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
It depends on how you installed it originally. That is an old unofficial version. And it depends on whether you installed the internal CWM recovery, which I doubt since your ROM is that old.

The one you want to install is the CM10.1.3, that is the latest. If you install it over your old ROM, all your apps and settings will stay.

I recommend not using the auto update since so much is not known. But you should be safe to do it manually. Just go to the CM site and download the hummingbird CM10.1.3 zip and flash it with your bootable CWM SD.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
Thanks Leapinlar - can you please provide the link to CM 10.1.3 and the instructions to install over my old ROM?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Go to the dummies guide for installing CM10.1. Follow the directions there for updating.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
Leapinlar - I went to the dummies thread and found the link to the 10.1.3 stable version. But the updating instructions in the dummies thread says to update via the auto update in settings. You recommended that I don't do that and install 10.1.3 over the existing one. Do I just download the 10.1.3 and then boot into recovery and install 10.1.3 that way???
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
If you installed CWM to internal memory per the instructions in that thread, then you can use the CMupdater. If you have not, then download the CM zip manually and boot to your bootable SD and install it.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
I believe I installed CWM to internal memory - is there a easy way to check this before I try the updater?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Just try the update, if it days install failed, it means it is not installed and then do it manually.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
Thanks, the update using the OS worked, no need to do it manually. Do I need to update GAAPS?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Since you ROM was so old, I recommend updating gapps to 20130812.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] bonline:
Leapinlar - I went to the dummies thread and clicked the link for the Gaaps - it says it can't find the file - see link.

http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip

Can you point me to the correct site for the latest GAAPS? Also, how do I update the GAAPS?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] rocksyjj:
hay folks whats the best way to testthe bettery life on nexus flo

as i have been doing my own tests by removing apps from

/system/apps with root browsers i did a full charge dropped

4% in 8 hours thats been idle is that good

or is it better using a software to make it last longer
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] GreatDayChap:
There is no need to remove system apps... It isn't likely to improve battery life.

A large reason you might see poor battery life is Google's location reporting and history, which should be more battery efficient when 4.4 rolls out. Turn those off for now and you should see an improvement. 4% from 8 hours isn't bad, but if the device is lasting you through the day and not dying or coming close to dying when you need it, there's not a need to be a stickler when it comes to battery life.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dropcorn:
I'm sure this have been covered, although after doing a couple of days of research I can't seem to find the answer, so sorry in advance if this has been gone though already.

I'm on cyanogenmod kernel version 3.4.66-cyanogenmod-geaa7c91 with android version 4.3.1 and my dock doesn't work. won't charge or anything. While reading I found everyone had this issue when samsung upgraded to jellybean. So I assumed rooting-flashing was in order. I got it all done and still nothing. Also, galaxy s4 will not dock to it either. I'm guessing my dock might be faulty, although as a new unit I'd imagine it should work fine.

Do I need to run a different kernel/rom? Revert back to ICS stock samsung crap?

I'm not really worried about which rom/kernel I'm running. I'm just trying to dock this to my tv and run xbmc from it. It's a spare phone and I figured this was a better idea than buying a cheap computer to do the job, also much smaller.

If someone could answer my question here, or point me in the correct direction that would be great.

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bek23:
Hi guys, I am sorry if it was already posted here, I could not find similar topics or posts. I have a problem with the network. When I try to call someone it says 'not registered on network'

I have been using galaxy s3 tmobile since last year november. I bought it from a police officer, he gave me unlock codes from tmobile. I used the phone on tmobile for 6-7 months and than I switched to staright talk unlimited and have been using it till yesterday. Yesterday suddenly my phone/ data/ sms.... stopped working. I was using cm10.1.3 than I thought, it is related to kernel/radio or modem and flashed back to stock rom.

But I still have the same problem.

The signal bar is full. I went to apn setting and played with it little, but no results. I tried to connect to the network, it says ' sim card does not allow a connection to this network'. I chatted with tmobile agent: she said, it must work on any network other than tmobile. I put my sim card on iphone, it works, but when I insert any simcard on my phone, it gives same issue. I checked my imei on tmobiles network, the result is: imei blocked. Could anyone help me with it please. ???? :banghead::confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If the IMEI is blocked then the seller has reported the phone to be stolen. There's not much that can be done in that case to the phone. You can talk to the Seller if you want.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Doesn't sound like a police officer to me. Probably lied to you to make the sale. Either he reported it lost/stolen like Perseus said, or he never fully paid it off and stopped making payments. Either way, the device is now almost certainly considered to be stolen property. You can unlock it and sell overseas, but otherwise you are pretty much screwed I am sorry to say.

You need to call T-Mobile to find out why it's been blacklisted. If it's been reported stolen, or was never fully paid for try to contact the seller and ask about it. If you can't get in touch with him you may want to consider filing a police report.

Only other possibility, but highly unlikely, is if some a$$ cloned their device using your imei (either randomly entered or obtained some other way). In this very unlikely scenario it wouldn't be the sellers fault, unless he gave the IMEI to someone to use or used it himself.

It's much more likely the seller did this to you since this, unfortunately, happens all the time.

Like stated previously, there isn't much you can do if you can't resolve things with the seller.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune.. good luck though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bek23:
Thank you for the replies, I have called tmobile, they say it's not fully paid off or the customer has stopped the services at all, at the time of purchase I was 100% sure he was police officer, he showed his badge and all the stuff in the car.

How can I unlock it? I might want to sell overseas.

Anyway, I was thinking about move to n5, but it is too early, coz n5 is not out yet
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
In the general section is a SIM Unlock thread. Should be on the first page or two.

If he is actually a cop, I'd call him up and ask about it. If he only recently cut his service, it may have been unintentional that you got screwed as a result. Maybe he had forgot all about it. Considering how long it's been, he probably had it close to paid off, so maybe he'd be willing to pay off the balance to T-Mobile to have it unblocked. Or it might be worth it to you, depending on the amount owed, to pay it yourself if he can't or won't.

Granted, it would suck to have to, but if he only owes like $50, might be worth considering.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If its not paid for then t-mo will release it after you pay up. Nexus 5 is ways away. You will have to go without a phone.

Unlock, ask T-mo or use online services on ebay
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bek23:
Well it is pre unlocked, or should I unlock again?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
No Need. If you know its unlocked then go ahead and sell Overseas.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bek23:
Thank you very much who helped me with this issue, and of course the seller cut his services and even his number is not available anymore, no replies from email, but I am happy that nexus 5 is play store now, yeey

The M3000 looks similar to the Qtec 9100. Orange states that there's different software on their device, no Edge functionality, no flah for the camera etc.

I have bought the M3000 and see: alle the software of the Qtec 9100, flash etc. is on the M3000!

But I can't work with Edge. I have unlocked the device(succesfully) en tried a Telfort Sim card with Edge(Telfort supports Edge in the Netherlands) Normally, the M3000 should switch to Edge when I use the internet(Internet Explorer) but the M3000 start switching to GPRS.

I have previously worked with a Qtec 9100 and it worked that way, why not with the Orange M3000? In the manual of the M3000, Edge is listed as a feature of the M3000.

What is going wrong and what do I have to do, to have the Edge functionality working?

Thanks!

Hey Freek,

I dont know much about Edge to be honest.

But why dont you flash the QTek rom onto the m3000?

As far as I know the m3000 is a HTC Wizard just like the QTek 9100 so you can Flash roms easily!

Good luck.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ra3ul:
So I got the charging dock for my Z1, the first night perfect, woke up and everything completely charged.

Today (2nd night) unhooked 5 minutes 97%, 15 minutes down to 81%. It was going down by the minute.

Tried to recharge, it just would´t. Removed sim card for a couple of minutes.

3 hours later 71%(normal discharge) 10% in 3 hours. Actualy a little better, I get 15 hours a day per charge, about 6% every hour, from 7 am to 10 pm, not bad, except for this.

Haven´t decided if recharge, or just wait for battery to drain and completely recharge again.

Has anybody had this happened?? Any comments, greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizzydz:
Are you using the provided sony charger? Also is your dock a genuine sony branded dock? These things could possibly affect the quality of charge you are getting.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] white lie:
Mine drained to around 50% in standby yesterday over about an hour. Took it off charge around 7am, first time I looked at it, it was around 8ish and had dropped to nearly 50%. Put it in the genuine Sony dock and it was draining faster than it could put charge in to it. Put it in to airplane mode and plugged the micro USB in and it charged up.

Went to sleep last night with it in the dock at 19%. Woke up this morning to an error saying the charger doesn't have enough power or something (I was still half asleep) and it was still on 19%. Plugged the USB in and left it for about half an hour. Still the same 19% so turned it off and left it to charge. 3 hours later and it was at about 85%.

I know it's a big battery and takes a while to charge but if the charger can't keep up while the phone is still on, then there's a problem. It hasn't discharged as quick today but it might be a dock issue as it's been charged with the micro USB. I'll give it another go tonight/tomorrow and if there's still a problem I'll contact Sony.

Something is using cpu cycles or a rogue app of some sort. That would be my guess. If you don't know what it use a wake lock detector, on my nexus 7, google currents sync was killing me. If not any of those maybe a defective battery or something. I use mine all day and get an average of 4 - 5 hrs screen on time. I'm up at 6 and in bed by 11-12. Usually have 20-30% remaining and I'm a pretty heavy user with NFC and all sync on.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ra3ul:
I installed the dock clock app, and let it run all night, I believe that to be the problem. Because I didn't use it last night, and I'm at 30% 16 hours since last charge.

So just deleted the app, and will put the alarm clock back on the night stand.

What you think could wiping system partition mean? Exactly: you wiped your system partition and because of that, there is no more system to boot from anymore...

So go back to recovery and flash a rom of your choice. If you have no flashable rom on your sdcard, you have to sideload a downloaded zip from your pc. There are howto´s how to do that with TWRP here on XDA.

I just rooted my phone with CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4. Everything worked fine.

Then I used I9100XWMS1_NeatROM_Lite_v5.1.1 and I have a few problems:

- I have no service. I can see the service bars at the top of the screen, but I can't make calls/send SMS. I can see available operators under mobile networks -> network operators, but manual selection of my operator results in "unable to connect. try later" message. Is it possible that this ROM doesn't work in certain countries? I live in Poland.

- I can't see my SIM contacts in address book. I can only see them if I search for them, I can only see myself otherwise.

- swiping downwards from the upper part of the screen (which brings up the shortcuts for enabling/disabling wi-fi etc.) sometimes shuts down the phone immediately. Am I doing something wrong?

- lock screen doesn't seem to work. Pressing the power button locks the phone, but pressing the home button just goes back to whatever screen was displayed before the lock.
