Thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a try but unfortunately it didn't help.

If my laptop is switched off my Exec can connect to my D-Link router, but I cannot access any internet resources. I presume that somewhere in the settings is the solution but I can't find it.

EXCELLENT db44!!!

For some reasons setting wireless "best performance" wortked for me too. Wizard (QTEK 9100 - gray market I guess as QTEK did not register on their site for me). I will still try Opera too.

Kind regards,

Oleg.

same thing happened to my qtek. it detected the network but could not connect and sometimes when it got connected, i still couldn't surf the net. is there anything in the settings that i'm missing? i also tried to enter the IP address manually but no luck either.
[Networking] rjhartmann:
My O2 XDA Mini arrived yesterday. It sees my wireless network (as well as two others in my neighborhood) but cannot/will not connect. I've tried everything I've read above - which confirms I'm on the right trail, but...

The D-Link DI-624 wireless router is in DCHP mode. I've dropped all security for connection trials. I've put the MAC address of the XDA in the router, just in case. I cannot find the IP address of the Mini (how do you do that?), but have tried with and without allowing the router to assign it a random and an assigned IP address. My router does NOT have the default (198.162, etc, etc IP address.) so I've been careful not to blindly follow standard instructions. Of course, I have tried with specific IP addresses, default gateway (router), etc, etc.

One clue is that after trying for a long time to connect to the networks it finds, I got one error message from the XDA saying it could not be assigned an IP address from the network(s). Good clue - wish I know what it means.

There are only limited settings to check on the XDA, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something on the router. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Is there a way of rooting my desire s without using internet, unfortunately I do not have a computer that works with internet (long story). I was wondering whether I could download all the files (if there is any) on to my phone then place them on my computer, then start from there with the rooting process. (If possible)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigj480:
I know that T-Mobile is not a "top Tier" carrier, but they actually have decent coverage where I use my phone and the $30 plan suits my needs at a LOW price. Anyway, my options for which phone to buy look like this:

AT&T version/D800: Looks like I would get 21Mbit/s instead of 42Mbit/s on 3G (according to Wikipedia frequency chart). T-Mobil rep said I would not get LTE. However, the wiki page for LG G2 show the phones having identical LTE frequencies (other than 850 MHz), so I'm not sure. Is the rep right, no LTE?

Verizon version/VZ980: Missing the UTMS 1700 MHz band, so limited to 21Mbit/s like the AT&T D800. It has NONE of the LTE frequencies that the T-Mobile version has, no LTE. It has only one of the LTE frequencies, 1700(band 4).

T-Mobile version/D801: Obviously will work perfectly, but not much development at all.

The only reason I'm not just buying the T-Mobile version is the lack of development. :( Maybe I should just live with that and hope that developers at least release more D801 mods so that I can mod the stock ROM....people seem to like the stock ROM a bit. Opinions?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moomba89:
Hey guys,

I've been thinking about the 8 inch version of this tablet for about a month. Bought one in Australia for my Mum and she loves the pants off it (her first tablet).

There's a special on at the moment in NL which brings it down to 200 euros which is a fairly decent price, but I also have the option of picking up a 2012 Nexus 7 new for 170. I've read some really terrible things about the 2013 nexus 7 and a fair few complaints about build quality on the 2012 version. I'm a student and if I buy something, it needs to genuinely last for a good two years (preferably more) to be worth the cost. Have you guys been happy with the quality of your devices?

I have noticed that there isn't much development for this device. Is this just because root has only recently been found? Or is there not much interest because of the Nexus family? I've always focused on development in buying devices and it's helped me squeeze four years out of my HTC Desire bravo and three years out of a friend's Galaxy S i9000.

So essentially what I'm asking is, does it seem like development might pick up in the future, and if not, is the quality of the device high enough that it would be worth trading off development potential? Sorry to ask such a general question, but I'm tearing my hair out trying to make a decision while the nexus 7 2012 is still in stock.

Thanks in advance!

I had the Nexus 7 2012 and currently have the GTab 3 8.0. I had no problems whatsoever with the Nexus. It was a good tablet. I just found the screen dark and cramped. I love the GTab 3 8.0. So it's not "retina". Big deal. The screen is crisp and bright and looks great to me. The tablet runs smooth and fast.

Honestly between those two models it's between screen size and whether having an SD slot is important to you. They are both great tablets.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Yes you are right....90% of battery life depends on how you use your device, kernel drivers and software can not do too much for your battery life.

Even if Huawei will update our device to Android 4.4 KitKat, battery life will can not be improved more than 10% in a normal usage !

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjn007:
I just recently upgraded from a Motorola Razr and was curious if Safestrap is available for the LG G2 (Verizon). I've rooted my G2 and have installed TWRP, but there isn't an option for ROM slots like there was in Safestrap with my Razr. Is this something that is possible to create and/or add to TWRP since Safestrap is based from TWRP or does this phone not have the option for ROM slots?

Thanks!

-Clint
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garywojdan81:
I think it has to do with hashcode's preference actually. At heart he's a moto guy. I came from the razr as well and probably will miss safestrap at some point, but remember why it was useful: external storage was possible. If you're anything like I was, you might have 3 active roms & as many backups ready to swap in on the fly, crackflasher heaven, right?

This format is much more traditional though, and preserves that premium storage space.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjn007:
Yeah! I loved being able to just switch between one of my 3 ROMs on the fly.

So, with the TWRP that I currently have installed on my G2, do I wipe the Stock ROM completely before installing a new one using Factory Reset wipe in TWRP? Also, if I decide that I want to go back to stock, how do I get it back?

I use Titanium Backup Pro to backup all my stuff, but I've never really had to try and do a recovery before.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
Can't you just create backups and switch between which ever Rom you want?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjn007:
I could do that, but I'm not sure of the appropriate method. Would I just go into TWRP and back it up there? Does that encompass everything I would need backed up?

It ran just fine for the past 4 days until today when my mother took it to the hospital and turned it off. According to her, she had to enter some pin for something and turned the phone off. Then she took it out again and it never turned back on and had the blue led. She took out the battery and and replaced it and nothing.

I got home, did soft reset and attempted to get the phone to boot in any manner possible (bootloader / recovery) and even connected it to my PC which does not detect the phone.

Now my Problem:

Upgrading to WWE was just easy as described in the Procedure.doc on the ftp. But what do I have to do to get the original ROM back?

I saved it as a German.nb1. D I have to use ntrw write German.nb1 h: ? (h: is my sd-card-slot)

That way it doesnt work, the Bootloader doesnt even recognize the ROM. When I backup my WWE-ROM to the SD-card and the use that ntrw command from above, the ROM is recognized, but after having updated it, I can't bot anymore.

Hi Stefan,

Seems like there's something wrong with your original rom-dump. Had it myself & it's a pain in the ***. Why not download the original German TMO shipped-rom & try it with the normal usb upgrade method?

Since your magician won't boot the software will probably tell you're upgrading from version blank, but that's no problem it will work. just put it into bootloader, connect usb & start the update program.

Success, M

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iaxx23:
Hello!

I've been having really really weird problems with my phone and CWM.

Right now I have latest stable CM installed.

Today I decided to switch to ParanoidAndroid.

I got the right ROM, but I installed the wrong google apps the 4.2.2 one.

Now I get a crash when I try to use the keyboard so I decided to flash it again.

I went back into CWM.

Factory reset, deleted cache, wiped dalvik cache.

Installed the same .zip file I did the first time for Paranoid Android except I didn't install Google Apps.

I restart the phone and it doesn't seem to have flashed, it's the one with 4.2.2 GAPPS.

I've tried wiping it 3 times.

I decided to check internal storage on my phone and this is what I see.

I don't think it's supposed to look like this after I just did a factory reset. Right?

Is something like privacy guard planned for omni ? Maybe something more strict then the CM implementation.

PDroid would be fine, but if pdroid will not be accepted, the CM privacy manager solution or something comparable would be fine, too.

If there is a concern about privacy management is a thing for experienced users and not for the "normal" users, then, maybe, a switch could be implemented to switch the whole thing on or off (default off).

[Omni Q&A] beddess:
I like the official NFL app for some things. But I don't wanna give it GPS permission, for example.
[Omni Q&A] rockingondrums:
From what I've read on the OmniROM webpage, and a few threads (as I'm browsing now), the point of it is that users can get the features they want added. This response kind of flies in the face of that. Now, my personal favorite is CM, but I always try new ROMs that sound interesting. Or if I can't get CM.

Privacy Guard is one of my must-have features of CM. Sure, I could just decide not to install anything that has a single questionable permission. However, that's actually pretty unfeasible in the current state of the industry and kind of cripples the possible uses of apps. Many apps require permissions they do not need. And we now know that despite the best efforts of companies, the NSA is stealing everything. Google themselves baked this very feature in to Android (though hid it in 4.4).

There are many points to be made in favor of Privacy Guard.
[Omni Q&A] MasterBrush:
any news on this subject?

Does OmniROM now include something like privacy guard?
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
I don'think so, not at this point at least. But from http://omnirom.org/general/omnirom-2013-year-review/ :

Also, while we wait, why don't you check out [MOD][XPOSED][4.0+] XPrivacy? Even while I was on CM11 with Privacy Guard, I still used that app. Has so much more to offer, imo.
[Omni Q&A] rockingondrums:
That's a cool module but it's little too much sometimes. Sometimes I can't figure out exactly which permission is causing a force close.
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
Pretty simple (once you know how), but does take some work to getting all your apps working with it. Especially if you're just starting out and have to make 100+ apps work. Much easier on a fresh install, updating and using a few apps, then piece by piece installing and updating the Settings. Anyhow..

In XPrivacy, go to Settings, and check Expert Mode, and Android usage data. Restart. Then try and open your app. Let it FC. Then back into XPrivacy, select the app that FCed, Menu, Usage data. Now you can see what it last tried to access, and that's more than likely what caused the FC.

That, or grab a logcat and look at that.
