Nm. I just found out about Nova Launcher's "Labs" setting (press volume down like 4 times in nova options or something). Now it allows for up to 16x16, among other unique options. Can't believe I didn't see this.

Is there a mod or something I can do to disable this? I don't know if it already exists or not but I'm running hyperdrive and my battery life is crazy good and 5% usually means I have about 30 minutes left and it would be nice if I could actually see my screen at this level. Thanks guys ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Don164:
Hey All !

I have a HTC One and I'm fairly a fanatic about conserving battery life so much so I used to be quite happy when I got 2 days out of it when it was first purchased, after the Android 4.2 update it went down although after scouring the internet I managed to bring it up with some good tips and tricks. I've recently looked into rooting and I took the plunge after I was convinced by the benefits although I would seem to have run into a problem of a weird sort !

I followed a video which showed me how to unlocked the bootloader and root the HTC One and It worked with the SU application showing my phone was rooted, I took the liberty of downloading a custom ROM and after downloading a few root applications, I've been getting notifications from some saying my phone has to be rooted and the app seizes to work. I've downloaded arious root checking apps and out of 5 apps which were downloaded, only 1 said my phone was rooted. I'm quite confused as I downloaded an app called "Greenify" when my phone wasn't rooted and it wouldn't work and now I downloaded it and it actually works ! I downloaded Titanium Backup and that wouldn't work along with a host of others asking for root permission.

I was wondering if anyone could be kind enough to tell me what to in order to remedy this, if not can someone advise on how to delete the ROM so I'm working with just a stock version of sense WITH root capabilities (before ROM installation)

Thanks !
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2001400ex:
OK, don't flame me. Cause this answer isn't the easiest to find.

I have rooted my OG droid and thunderbolt, didn't root my maxx HD. But I have the G2 on Verizon and I want to wireless tether. Is there a method to root that I just run an app similar to the old one touch methods and not have to install a whole ROM? Then can I wireless tether with fox if? Or do I need to install that Verizon apk to enable wireless tether? I don't want to do anything else with root and I want to keep my phone as is without a reset.

Please educate me. :)

Yeah , it is under "special offers" - look under the "300 mins for £14.50 for 12 months" deals

Thanks joker3001 ! just ordered one :D

Was looking for a reason to buy a Wizard anyway (or at least something to justify it to the wife :wink: ) and the Sat Nav does just that !

Is this phone any different from the SX56?

I just installed the XDA ROM software into my SX56 and unlocked the AT&T phone which now accepts TMobile (the phone accepts my SIM card and TMobile made a call to me which came in). I am paying $19.95 a month and have had the service for about eight years

The problem I am having is that my phone screen now doesnt respond properly: Touching it causes the backlight to go on but most of the keys dont do what one would expect them to do: The phone turns on with a reminder from the calendar on the screen which wont DISMISS or CLOSE. Pressing on the windows logo and then on the phone key causes the calendar to come up and I am not sure which numbers are entered when I do manage to get the phone to come onto the screen (none of the right hand numbers seem to work at all). Does anyone recognise these symptoms and/or could they just show that my SX56 needs the ROM RE-flashing? I should add that pressing the Master Reset button with this ROM in place seems to make the phone shut off and then when you restart it, all of the data remains in place. I wonder if there is any possibility that the XDA ROM has prevented the reset button from working normally?

But then I saw this ad: The SDA site implies that all these phones are the same under the skin although an article written in 2002 http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/tmobile-pocketpc.pdf implies that the manufacturer was coming out with some different processor at that stage and that the processor in the Wallaby was then already obsolete: Does anyone know if this phone represents any advance on the SX56 or is it newer or is my phone exactly the same as this one or is my SX56 actually better? (I already have the COPILOT software independently). Or is it just the same walllaby in a different casing which TMobile are tyring to get rid of because the manufacturer is as uncooperative iwth them as they are with anyone else?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wrightbyname:
Anybody had any luck with this?

I just called T-Mobile sales to ask what was included with the Copilot kit and was told that they are not honouring this offer due to a mistake. Worth a try anyway?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] licensedtoquill:
Mistake, but IS this phone any different from the SX56?

What the mistake was may be relevant: I just called them and they said they WERE although they had at first said that the CoPilot was extra and wasnt included with the price. I didnt take it any further as I couldn't figure out whether the phone they are offering is any different to the one I already have
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ineedtoys:
Re: Is this phone any different from the SX56?

Sounds like the digitiser is up the swanee - have you tried recalibrating it?

It's a completely different phone. The Vario is an HTC Wizard with T-Mobile branding. There's plenty of info on this site on the differences between models.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ineedtoys:
Re: Mistake, but IS this phone any different from the SX56?

Never heard of Google, or even http://wiki.xda-developers.com/?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wrightbyname:
Pricing mistake

The sales chap I spoke to said that the free Copilot offer only applies to other phones - it should cost £120 with the Vario. However, he said he works for direct sales, not the web sales team, so advised me to give it a go anyway, which I have done. It's before the 7.30pm cutoff for next day delivery, so I'll give you an update tomorrow...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ineedtoys:
Re: Pricing mistake

Their "mistake" excuse is weak - if it is, why haven't they taken the page down?

Re: Is this phone any different from the SX56?

"Sounds like the digitiser is up the swanee - have you tried recalibrating it?"

Not sure how to reclalibrate it but the problem appears to be that I dropped it and 10-12 vertical black lines started appearing to the right hand edge of the screen. Sometimes they are there, sometimes not. THere is usually at last one there somewhere. At about that time the screen stopped responding as I mention. Today the left third started displaying the same veritcal lines, though spaced quite far apart (about a millimetre). Screen doesn't APPEAR cracked: Does this sound like a digitiser and if so, how do you recalibrate it please or is there a link to somewhere on the XDA site which I cant find which might tell me? Or could it be the cable loose in the circuit board? As you touch the lower right hand corner of the metal casing where the vertical lines are, those lines flash (the right 10 or 12) on and off and every coloured bar everywhere on the screen or word of text has vertical lines on it even if the white parts don't??

(BTW FWIW I am in New York and couldn't take advantage of the .co.uk offer but was just wondering how they could give the unit away so cheap unless it was essentially the same as the 2002 units which are described on the XDA site)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wrightbyname:
Success! (I think)

Just checked my email on arriving home and my order has been confirmed by T-Mobile so it should be with me tomorrow. Still odd that they show it at £120 on one page and free on another, but I'm not complaining!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Ineedtoys:
Re: Is this phone any different from the SX56?

@licensedtoquill - to me it sounds like you've dislodged the connections to the screen. Youcould try taking the thing apart and reseating it, but it's a delicate job and not for someone who's not used to dealing with miniature electronics. Might be work looking for a repair facility - PPC Techs have a good reputation.

As for why the phones are so cheap over here, the network operators will do anything to get you signed up to a contract, as that's where they make their money. It's easy to get a free top line phone if you chose the right contract. Especially one like this which locks you in for 18 months as opposed to the normal 12. They're banking on the fact that even with the 300 free voice minutes, you'll still ramp up the bill with SMS and GPRS over the life of the contract. That's why they put the unlimited half price rental "loyalty" bonus at the end to make sure you stick out the full term.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zoidster:
Mine is confirmed too - should be here before one tomorrow

The Guy on the phone (had to phone to confirm some details) said the deal was so good that they (the web sales team) were all snapping them up too , and that the deal was subject to stock , and that stock of the copilot kits would probably be exhausted by the end of today

No mention of a mistake at all :roll:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Finn:
@zoidster: what time did you order yours? I needed one and did not have the time to order w/o co-pilot earlier in the day and this looked too good to be true. I got confirmation around 9:30PM UK and hope the stock is not finished yet.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zoidster:
It was about 4.30pm mate - mind you , in "sales speak" a few left probably means several thousand :lol:

If your order was confirmed & they charged you the £5.99 for next day delivery then I'd guess they had stock left
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Finn:

Anyone know how to remove all the stupid over the top t-mobile branding .. its doing my head in! :x
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zoidster:
Just do a hard reset , then after you have alligned the screen ,done the sample cut and paste and entered a password (or skipped it) it tells you to tap the screen to begin using your device , as soon as you do this perform a soft reset (poke the stylus in the hole in the back) and it will not customize

I must say , I am considering trying to remove the Tmobile garbage on the case - as it appears to be raised it shoulld "scrape" off (gently , of course :lol: ) - but haven't had the bottle to try yet , I am a little worried that it might pack up and need sending back to T-mobile ,not sure they would be chuffed
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Finn:
I was thinking of re-flashing after unlocking the T-Mobile thingy. Is this what you guys have done or is the T-Mobile ROM a good one?

Is the GPS wired or bluetooth in your units?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] joker3001:
I unloocked it, then flashed it with the latest t - mobile and now removing the branding as per instructions above :lol:

gps is bluetooth and for the looks of it pretty good ... these retail for about 130-175 online and i've seen the software go for 75 on ebay :D

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] mingkee:
It should be a good opportunity to "steal" full ROM through Kies.

Before connecting to the phone, clear the temp files through C drive properties.

You also have to "unhide" the hidden (not protected) files and folders. Go to C:\users\(user name)\Local\temp, and sort files and folders by date.

During update process, watch for large file and copy the large file elsewhere.

I have read your posts with great interest because I have attempted/failed multiple times. It's not clear to me if

a) you have the AT&T phone

b) if it's rooted or not

c) at EXACTLY what point in the process (what dos the screen show?) do you manually restart? There are multiple times it could be done and it is undoubtedly critically important when you elect to do it.

Thank you in advance for a more complete post.
