i Discovered yesterday that my Jasjar has the same crack :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Bluediss:
No cracks jet... but only 2 weeks old!

BTW My Compaq EVO laptop is 3 years old, still no problems in that area...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
I have an almost 4 month old EXEC and no cracks on mine. I can see the lines where the casing meet, but they are definitely NOT cracks, but joined plastic. Are you referring to those lines? Maybe they became unattatched on those devices.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] flyingcamelz:
no cracks on mine, i've been using mine since august '05, and its been thru drop-testing too~ but no such problems

mine's an early O2 prototype.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Bubisch:
Got mine since one and a half weeks now, can not find any damage yet.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zoidster:
My Exec has the crack above the stylus :(

Another point for the wizard :roll:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] rilot:
No cracks on my Exec. Had it for a few months now.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] srmz:
My Jasjar has a crack on the stylus side but none on the headphone socket side. Though it is not as long as shown in the picture. It starts directly below the hinge block which has the LED (as in the photograph) but ends before the first edge. It does not cross the edge down to the vertical portion of the casing.

I observed this the first time on a very careful inspection using a magnifying glass when this post first appeared i.e. in early January when my Jasjar was around 2 months old. Another 1-1/2 months has passed but this crack is not growing and is exactly the same as it was when I first inspected it in January. Can't say for sure that if it was there when the unit was brand new or developed later. Nevertheless it seems not to be growing.

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Melty:
Yeah same here. Definitely not cracks as they are perfectly straight and orthogonal to the casing (and the ones on the speaker side are mirrored on the flip casing). I wonder if the initial batch was made differently and cracked and so ours were made with separate pieces so they wouldn't crack?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zoidster:
On closer inspection ,this seems to be the case with mine too ( whew !

:) )

I had horrible visions of the bloody thing falling apart !
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Melty:
Good! I had the same panic for a couple of minutes - LOL! :lol:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gurila:
u think that's bad? look at this...

dropped it once too often (damn casing, dosnt cover that spot)

silly-cone skin didnt help

Hello all,

Is there any way to download free apps from play sore to PC along with data?

I tried this tool, but I guess it downloads only apk file, data has to be downloaded after installing in device. Any other workaround to download data from play store to PC?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ScottNBNP:
Hey guys, im kinda new here, i've lurked and gotten help but this is my first post.

I was using Call&Note Recorder for a few days, everything worked super well was recording everything and all that, but last night i noticed that the icon wasn't in the notification bar up the top. So i went into it, reactivated it, but everytime the screen goes off, it disables it again, whether its from locking, or putting it up to my ear.

This (of course) is really annoying, i don't know if anything else is broken as this is just the start, but i don't know what i did in the last few days that i could of broken it. I did install Xposed framework and Keepchat, which didn't seem to work for me, so i've since uninstalled it. Besides that i can't think for the life of me what could be causing it.

So i am hoping someone here knows, and might be able to help without having to restore it.

Thanks in advance. Scott. :)

EDIT: ok it happens with Dropsync as well, if i start a sync and lock the phone, it shuts it compleatly down. I really need help :(

EDIT 2: Was unable to get into recovery either, the Galaxy Note II logo would come up and then fritz out and reset, and just keep doing that over and over. So currently re-installing stock firmware with odin, in the hopes that i fix it.

EDIT 3: When i flash the stock firmware, everything works as it should, if i reroot it, the same problems arise. Things turn off when locked and no able to enter recovery. I really hope someone has an answer for this, as its driving me insane working it out.

Is there ways to check what i've installed root wise and uninstall it?
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] vickysukhadia:
I was getting update since few days on my quattro :cyclops: and today when i connected using kies its downloading a huge firmware :confused: hoping for it to be 4.2 ... fingers cressed anyone else got the update .. if done please tell me its an OS update or just patch... :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] Snehashish30:

[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] coolkoushik07:

[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] sagar27691:

[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] mysteryno46:
Last updated ! ! !

Come soon 4.2.2 or the best will be 4.3. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] zanini007:
cmon, why no 4.4? :D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] mysteryno46:
Wait for the Official Announcement sooner in coming months

No one amongst us would get the 4.2.2 update until its officially announced for India. ;) (Ohh Yes, unless some good human being develops a 4.2.2 custom Rom for our phone.) :D

---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 PM ----------

Can't handle too much of it. If it happens, I jump out of my dream and get back in searching for official news for 4.2 and 4.3 :D:D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] xavierzou:
a patch I guess
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] g_jaiswar:
No change apparent.......only stability improvement
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] coolkoushik07:
This version is smoother and battery backup also better than the previous version
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] Snehashish30:
Whenever I make a call or receive a call, the power button stops responding, and I cant disconnect the call until the person on the other end disconnects it, and after that everything works properly...

This problem started since the MI4 update and has persisted after the MJ7 update...have any1 faced this?
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] Snehashish30:
Guys...can any1 verify if you have the same prob as the one I mentioned?
[Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro] coolkoushik07:
Am not having this problem.. its working fine for me..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zivalarasa:
This is an open challenge for all developers.

1) They cannot make a custom kernel in FTF format.

2) They cannot unlock the boot-loader in an unofficial way only through software.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
You challenge devs?????

I have answers.

1. FTFs are actually from pc companion/sony dev website. They are signed by Sony and we can't modify it.

2. Well, the software is made that way that without an unlock key, you can't unlock the bootloader.

Anyone is free to add on to my answer.

If devs can't do it, why not you be the revolution for sony devices and create what you asked?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
First FTF is just zip archive used by FlashTool,SIN files are signed by Sony with private key and they cant be modified.

Second Bootloader hashes IMEI with PUBLIC KEY,with is then bootloader unlock key.Thats why you need to enter IMEI on Sonys site.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pauldmps:
1. It is way easier to copy a flashable .zip into a phone flash via cwm than to go through the hassle of installing flashtool & loads of drivers (which doesn't work on Windows 8, BTW) to flash a ftf.

2. I challenge you to break the encryption of your favourite credit card company's payment service. This is similar to breaking the encryption (128bit ??) that Sony has put into its bootloader signing mechanism.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] usmanilyas4u:
EASY WAY TO GET ur workk

hahaha
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
OP any last words?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
Well, just have a question

YOU CAN DO THAT?

Their something maybe now can't do, but no one promise it can't begin in the future, all about the time!

And I think this thread is useless cause your what challenge to the developers is just showing you didn't respect them with their hard work!

I apologize for anything I did cause I'm just showing my idea :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pandemic:
This thread is useless !!

why challange DEVS ??

NO kind of sense this !
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DroidModderXtreme:
Complete agree bro [MENTION=2902434]Pandemic[/MENTION]

It's no-sense to challenge devs !
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
You were able to modify/create ftf on 2010 phones (something was unsigned I think)

Bootloader could be unlocked without key or being allowed to unlock on 2011 phones (by a hardware hack with some cables)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
Well of course,but our device have better security also "hardware hack' does not work on 2011 Xperias for years.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zivalarasa:
Well First of all I am extremely sorry for hurting all of you.

Secondly, The idea behind is that I bought Xperia SOLA from a giant store in my country. The box had written VodaFone over my SOLA packing. I asked the shopkeeper and he told me your Phone will be perfectly fine with local sim cards. I came home used SOLA for a couple of weeks and hell yeah, It was ****ing slow. I couldn't believe what I have bought. Then i went to XDA for a custom rom and guess what my bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked the official way though all sims and network operators are working. Now I started searching for ROMS for LBL and coudn't find the one that fast and stable at the same time. Out of desperation, I challenged the great developers to atleast make a FTF custom kernel for me that is impossible for now. Accept my apologies every body.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChinmayKunkikar:
Good you apologized mate!

Our devs work so damn hard each and every day just to make our phones work perfectly. Thats no way one can challenge them.

I dont know wether i should be talking about this or not because i am not a dev or anybody, but, You respect them and you get respected back! Thats the one thing i have learnt from XDA! :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matiasdl:
There is no need to challenge a dev, if they dont didnt do what you are asking is because its not possible or its very hard to do. The devs here work everyday to give us great releases, you shouldn`t make this kind of thread challenging theme, i think its useless.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
But anyway, you can use custom roms, but not kernel. You can root your device and get some speed and battery. It takes time but thats why xda is here, everybody learn a lot here and use lots of stuff in config and so on. So read, learn and try...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zivalarasa:
Best ROM for Xperia SOLA LBL

So guys what according to you is the best ICS ROM for Xperia SOLA Locked Boot-loader ?

I tried Experience 2.1 by divaksh and its not that good. Although Divaksh did Awesome work. Its the Fone that is ****ing SLOW.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
Its not the issue with the ROM's..... its the device itself which has very low RAM.....

I know many other devices with 512 RAM working great but these NovaThor devices have some issues I guess.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zivalarasa:
Very True

I might be selling my SOLA if there is no announcement for KITKAT for it in coming few months.

Monxdified rom

Im using beat solo
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] Ambroos:
It doesn't change much. It replaces Sony Mobile's sound enhancements by those from the Sony Electronics (Walkman) team. They're mostly the same since Sony Mobile borrowed the tech from the Walkman team.

You can't improve the sound quality with just software. The dedicated Android Walkmans actually have a proper DAC and quite a good amplifier on board and it's those things that make the difference.
[Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps] jimRnor:
It wont add any apps on app drawer, it just enhanced the sound system sound

Yes will try to increase at next version

I am doing the new projects to z

1 now, it has a great output volume(but i am not going to integrate the acid since i hates lot of bugs on it

checked, will reply shortly

Try replace the mounting script with z1's mounting script, i think is the scripts problem

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letschky:
Yep,but I can not get into download mode,only in Recovery(TWRP)

I make a Factory Reset Test in the Hidden Menu,since I can not do anything

vol up + power = LG BootLogo for a few seconds and then it boots into TWRP

I can flash ROMs and restore backups, but instead of starting to Android, it starts in TWRP

it is very strange
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fma965:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letschky:
Ok,

i Have a LG G2 International Version D802.Stockrom (80210B)

I rooted the Phone and have Twrp installed,this works very well,i flash roms,make Backups since 3 Weeks,no Problems.

OK, yesterday I watched a bit and tried some things in the Hidden menu, the last thing I know I've got something pressed factory reset test

since then booted the phone does not except directly into the TWRP, I can turn it off and when I want to load it comes the Lg logo and remains,

Unfortunately I can not enter the download mode

in TWRP I can see that something needs to be on it but, Cache: 16MB, Data: 355MB, System1910MB, etc. ..

times can you please see if there is the menu? But press nothing

So as I said, I can charge the phone in the TWRP, turn on, turn off, unfortunately, is not more.

I hope you understand my bad English!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da_reeseboy:
Download mode is NOT vol up + power. To enter download mode:

1. Connect a USB cable to computer or wall charger.

2. With the phone off, connect the usb cable to the phone while holding vol up.

It senses the power on the USB cable, and combined with the vol up being held it boots into download mode.

With that said, I would say Factory Reset Test tripped a setting to make recovery the default boot. I'm sure there's a way to undo that without flashing stock firmware in download mode... lets find it.

Hello

My G Pro was working fine this morning, and all of the sudden, it rebooted itself and got stuck at At&t boot logo. No matter what I do, it never gets past this point. It can boot into TWRP but that's pretty much it.

Actually, I can just follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302660 or use TWRP to fix the problem. However, this morning I just filmed a video which I didn't have any chance to back up, and I really want to copy it to my PC before wiping all the data on my phone.

Could anybody help me, please?

If you guys need any additional info, please let me know. Thank you much.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ricco333:
Try and see if this helps, reboot to recovery and in TWRP find the "mount usb" option and select it, plug your phone in to the PC and see if you can see the drive in "my computer", if you can then find your file and copy it to where you want. I do not use TWRP now, I use CWM but I used to do that all the time with my Galaxy Note without any problems.

Hope it works.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_T:
I received notice of the update to my Note 3 last week. But because my Note 3 had been perfect in every way so far I did not really want the update. But there seemed to be no way to refuse it permanently. I finally got tired of constantly dismissing the nag screen and today went ahead with the update.

Unfortunately the phone now randomly reboots itself. I pulled the battery for a few minutes and that does not seem to help. It has done it a few times in the 6 hours since I updated. Seems random with no set time in between. Once was only a few minutes before it did it, another time it was good for a couple of hours before it did it. I had a perfect phone and now this! At least the reboots have not happened when I was in the middle of something. So far it has happened when the phone was just sitting idle on the desk with the screen off. I would just notice it rebooting by itself. Another time I took the phone out of my pocket and looked at battery use and it said something like 4m 30s on battery and it had been in my pocket for over an hour while I was using some power equipment so it had rebooted at least once while in my pocket. I plan to remove the battery overnight and see if that does anything.
