Windows Media Player 10 has just uninstalled itself from my BA... short of a hard reset and start again, how can I get it back? I tried a hard reset then copy the files from the windows folder but it wont let me copy them!!

For now, I have restored my previous setup, and I will try to instlal the older WMP 7.1... but its really annoying.

Can anyone tell me for example how to access protected files? Can I access the device in bootloader mode from a computer perhaps?

Thanks for you help!

I spoke too soon.. upon trying to do an ActiveSync restore after a hard reset, it tells me I cannot restore since the restore was created from a different kind of mobile device... bollocks, HELP!!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] richardkemp:
Alright, Ive restored OK... thats that crisis over.

And post-restore, the media player prog is back in the windows folder but start icon isnt, so will put that back manually.

However I suppose my original question still stands, is there any way to access those locked system files e.g. for copying?

I'm thinking acessing the PPC when windows isnt loaded is the way to do it?

You are right. I am looking for a method to access window folders in bootloader mode or before tapping on screen. But, I didn´t find it anywhere.

Can someone make a transparent stausbar for CM 10.1.2?I already have tried but I have bootloop 2 times,and now I'm kinda afraid.

Thanx and sorry for my bad english.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JalmiNyondong1933:
You can safely make your statusbar transparent by using Xposed Modules. Firstly, you need to install Xposed Installer, then install Gravitybox module. Reboot. Statusbar transparency management is in Gravitybox app.

This way does work. But unfortunately the image behind the status bar will hang around for a second or 2. Its not entirely brilliant. but its not bad. Its fine if you just keep the screen static. I was hoping that someone could post a better way to do this.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JalmiNyondong1933:
I know it's really annoying. But only MIUI can does it right - you know, perfect transparent statusbar.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] itnetwork:
IMO it's is more annoying that the statusbar returns black sometimes. Especially when scrolling wallpaper is activated. It just turns black for a couple of seconds and then becomes transparent again. This happens with any launcher (Apex, Nova, Go, KitKat).

Any solution?
[One (M7) General] Arjen_Arg:
Hi, I found the guide useful, specially now with the upcoming 4.4 OTA. I'm confused thou, I heard you can't apply an OTA having a custom recovery, is this true? If so, shouldn't you have to flash stock recovery after loading a nandroid backup from recovery to be able to receive OTA's?
[One (M7) General] electronical:
You need to have 100% stock ROM and stock recovery in order to successfully apply an official OTA update. In order words, if you have custom recovery, you won't be able to update. You need to flash in the following order: stock nandroid backup, stock recovery, then download/install any new OTA.

I finally got mine today ,

I notice on the reviews , a lot of people dislike it because it had a lot of scratches. Well mine did to. Except it was a thin really hard to get film in the inside. So after multiple tries I was finally able to take it off and it still looked scratched. The wife has better nails that me , I asked her to see it there's a film on the outside . she tried for a while and finally she said well I'm going to scratch the crap out of it but I don't think it has one. Finally she was able to lift the corner up. So there is protecting film in the inside as well as the out side of the case. Just giving a heads up to all the people complaining about the cases being really scratch.

Hope this helps

Hey guys. So basically I rooted my phone using root de la vega method keeping my knox at 0x0. I checked for new ota update and there seems to be a new one available. So my question is if I download and install the latest ota, will I lose my root? And will that also trip knox? Should I just repeat root de la vega with newer firmware? Im confused. ....
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamyi:
Which firmware are you in currently?

If you have rooted your phone, I strongly suggest you to stay away from OTA as it will cause issue to your phone. If you want to keep root and updated to the latest firmware, and if you are still using MJ1 or MJ3 firmware, you can try the method in the following thread

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tomkatt:
My Sero 7 Pro will not output to HD resolutions on my television. It will only output to 640x480.

I can't figure out why this is happening, but I'm assuming it's HDCP related. The Sero 7 Pro doesn't have any HDMI output options. So far no ROM I've downloaded has fixed this either (I've tried XESeroROMv2 and Jellytime 4.3.1).

Any suggestions, or apps that may force this?

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tomkatt:
It's definitely a software problem. Jellytime 4.3.1 works in HD but is stuck in portrait mode. That ROM also has HDMI options, unlike the stock one.

I'm losing faith that Hisense will get it together, but maybe the community here will be able to work it out, between XboxExpert, DeloresSpark, and RandomBlame. XESero7ROMv2.2 is actually quite good, it's my daily driver currently, but still has the HDMI output issue.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbross3030:
Hi Guys,

Before I tear my hair out going through all efforts to recover my phone back to a working condition, I'd like to know the odds of this being a hardware malfunction. I was running ARHD 4.0 and it has all but bricked my phone (beware, stick with NRG's rom if you want a stable Sense daily driver). After going through tons of force-closes and permissions issues, the phone became incapable of reading the external SD. Now I don't know if this is due to corruption or an actual hardware issue (I "dropped" the phone once while it was acting up, though I was still able to access my ext-sd after that IIRC). Hopefully someone can give me some guidance here, I'm a little wary of the fact that my phone cannot see the external SD card even from 4ext at this point in time.

I've completely wiped the phone as much as I can via 4ext, I suppose the next step would be to insert a different SD card or see if I can't get another device to read this one so that I can format it to fat-32 and start fresh, but as it stands I cannot currently get 4ext to see my external sd (or internal for that matter). Also, when first entering the bootloader, I don't see the scrolling lines of "ph85img.xxx not found" which to me would be indicative that seeing seeing my external SD card either, and thus not seeking for a recovery image.

Assuming that I am unable to get the phone to mount a working Fat-32 formatted external SD, would this necessarily indicate a hardware failure, or are there other potential culprits? Thanks for any help on this guys.
[HTC Amaze 4G] NooBOnTheBlock:
I had this problem too I fixed it by taking out the battery for about 5minutes exactly. This let's all sensors clear out and somewhat gives your phone a fresh start...tell me...does hboot (white screen that says unlocked s-on ect)...does it scan for the ph9857xx.IMG or zip? If it does than your phone still recognizes external storage sd card...if you can load a Rom to you ext sd card then you may be able to flash a new Rom from your ext sd card...use nrg Rom or super sense...hop I helped you..
[HTC Amaze 4G] rbross3030:

Hello good people :)

Firstly, i want to say that i searched the forum for this and i couldn't find an answer or a solution to my problem. So here it is:

I have a SGS Plus I9001 which cannot stay ON more than 1 sec. I turn on the phone, all the logos and texts pass, but when the menu shows, after 1-2 seconds the phone turns off completly or restarts itself. I have a long hisoty with my phone however :cyclops: I used a normal 2.3.6 android and then switched to CyanogenMod 10.1. It worked just fine. I was very, very happy with it. One night i left the phone charging and when i woke up in the morning, the phone was dead. Completly DEAD! Services change the whole motherboard and the phone worked just fine for about 1-2 hours and then this happened. I opened it up and saw that the motherboard shows "SGH-T959". I tried installing stock roms, different versions of Cyanogen and Kernels but nothing can turn on the phone and make it work. It just restarts itself. The only thing i ave managed to install via Odin is CWM Recovery.. However, my knowledge of this is limited so here i am seeking for your assistance :rolleyes:

PS. I tried changing the power button but no luck.. still the same..

If anyone is interested in this problem, please post an answer or question (if you need more information)..

Thank you!

Please rate your screen on time to the nearest half hour.

If you respond to the poll, please reply as well so more can see it.

If you have abnormally hi/low times please post your thoughts on why.

I'm going to take this chance to recommend you use Firefox instead of Chrome for internet browsing. Not sure why but Chrome just uses a lot of power. I frequently see 30% ratings on the battery usage stats screen.

Switching to Firefox and unless I go above 6 or so tabs I'm almost always ~half Chrome's power usage. So, 15-20% max usually.

conclusion:

75% of users get >3.5h screen on time.
[Nexus 5 General] radeon962:
3.5 hours with Dalvik.

Switched to ART Saturday night and first day on Sunday and again today was pushing 4 hours SOT, so a slight improvement. Have to wait and see if it improves over time as I have not had any FC's with any of the apps I use so I'll keep running ART to see if that helps.

Google Now is on, screen set at 10% (auto way too aggressive), Location set to Mode - Battery Saving (I know if I switched to Device Only that could help, but then Google Now location based cards don't work) so leaving it on for now.
[Nexus 5 General] darkamikaze:
This is pretty hard to reply on just because I never let my phone get down to 1% to have a gauge of SOT. Do I partake in the poll if I'm at 40% at the end of my day with 2h54min SOT?

I would extrapolate, you probably get 4h being pessimistic. Your battery stats might be off.

While I'm curious where this goes I urge ppl. not to take results as reference as user patterns differ wildly. Syncing, Now!, BT, data on/off, 2G or 3G or LTE, GPS or network location, apps, brightness, sleep time all can make a difference in SoT.
[Nexus 5 General] cntrdctn:
I noticed that I'm getting more battery drain when I set location to battery saving mode. I noticed when I was on battery saving mode that it was causing Google services to run much longer.

I Always have LTE off unless i'm tethering, HSPA+ is fast enough for phone use. Screen is always below 50%, google now off, location at battery saving. all sync is set to off/manual. wifi/bt almost always on. I do about 1.5 hours of a2dp streaming per day.

With all of those conditions I have seen 4-4.5 hours over a 2 day discharge cycle. I could probably get another hour if I used my phone over the course of 1 day instead of 2.
[Nexus 5 General] bblzd:
3.5 hours average per day/charge with an hour of games. 4.5 hours with no games.

5.5-6.5 hours on mobile moderate use and every sensor on. Only change is manual 25-30% brightness. This phone is multiples brighter than anything I've used. If it had lower minimums I would keep in on auto. The n7 is the same way.
[Nexus 5 General] BoneXDA:
Lux is quite good at managing auto brightness, you can set a lower average. Not sure if it's compatible with 4.4 just yet.

[Nexus 5 General] SteveG12543:
These results are pretty encouraging imo. I'll be coming from an HTC Rezound that usually gets around 2 hrs of SOT, so it looks like this will most likely be an improvement according to the poll. I'd love an extra hour to an hour and a half of SOT compared to what I usually get :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katamari201:
My Lumia 520 (yes the really cheap one) recompresses the video file when I send it over email. A one minute 720p video is 70MB reduced to 6.5MB and 480p. It is very convenient and saves bandwidth. Takes less than a minute to recompress, although I wouldn't want to send a 30 min video. I remember my Samsung could reduce file sizes for images when sent over email. I dunno about compressing video. If the LG can compress video like the Lumia, it should be blazing fast since it is 2.3ghz quad-core vs the dinky 1Ghz dual-core. Still would like to know if it has it.
