Ok, thank you very much for the insight. Yes, I believe the backup had stock kernel. Must have been...

3 more questions before I consider taking action:

1. How do I get 4ext on there now that I have CWM already?

2. Is there a way to backup my current setup and later restore it minus the kernel?

3. Since my phone runs real smooth as is right now and I don't play 3D games anyway - what noticeable benefits do I get from overclocking?
[HTC Sensation] stillsober:
Disclaimer :I don't know much, everything I say could be wrong for all I know. But if It is I hope someone corrects me on it

1. http://androidforums.com/cdma-evo-3...lash-recovery-image-via-fastboot-sd-card.html

The file name for sensation should be PG58IMG.zip

2. Titanium backup

3. If you're getting the level of performance you already want, I don't think there will be any noticeable difference. Most roms come with cpu governor that will adjust the cpu speed depending on task, low cpu to intensive, overclocking increases the maximum allowed, some app will take advantage of this it will drain battery faster and since you don't require more juice why waste battery?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
or follow only step 2 from this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631861

for restore yes you can do also an advanced restore from 4ext recovery except titanium backup

just go to backup/restore->advanced restore and choose data

but don't restore system partition if you are coming from different rom or different base because you will have many fc's
[HTC Sensation] bel1eve:
Thank you to you both.

PG58IMG.zip - this file is 4ext? I do have this file and remember trying to install it via WMrecovery, but unsuccessful. How do I install it?

So if I understand this right, with Titanium Backup or via a 4ext advanced restore I can backup my whole configaration (installed apps, frozen apps, startup apps, accounts, screen config) for a given Rom? ANd then I can wipe everything and reflash the Rom with the desired kernel and then restore this backup and everything goes?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
since you are on S-ON forget any pg58img.zip file

in my previous post i gave you a link on how to install 4ext recovery

about restore absolutely yes but don't restore boot partition

note: another way to install 4ext is to install 4ext updater apk

open the apk

select the touch version if you want

it will download it and install it for you

done:good:
[HTC Sensation] bel1eve:
What exactly do you mean by "

except

Titanium Backup" ?

What are

"fc's

" ?

ANd what do you mean by "base" ? Kernel?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
the ability for backup/restore exists in recovery not only in titanium backup app

that's what i mean by "except"

fc's->forceclose

it means when you are opening an app(especially a system app)it crashes immediately

by base i mean a different version of android of the same rom or a completely different rom

kernel is the brain between software and hardware

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyxdeslic:
I know there are quite a few complaints about the speaker/sound quality on the N5, but I'm wondering if I'm actually experiencing a situation different than the typical complaints. When I have my volume at max, the sound is distorted and "vibraty" (it gives off that vibrational distorted sound, if that makes any sense). Is that what most people are experiencing? I want to make sure that I don't have a defective device, and that this horrid sound quality is the phone "working as intended."

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
There are allready custom kernels that improve sound and loudness in the original dev. thread, you might look there to improve sound if you`re not happy bro.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyxdeslic:
I appreciate the response. I heard that Google is sending out an update for both the sound and camera issues. I'd like to see what they take care of before I flash anything. I'm enjoying stock.

But I was wondering if the sound I'm experience is also what everyone else is experiencing. It sounds good at middle volumes, but slightly distorted at max volume. Is that normal?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
Is it normal, I can't say - IMO, it's to be expected and that's me. Take a look at the size of that mono speaker and it is by Bose, right - ain't no way it's going to compete with my 8-speakers/subwoofer Bose system setup @ home that cost a bit, urrrhhh. And, it's not going to deliver stage live quality for listening in any challenging environment - but, tune your expectations & you will be happy. I put on a decent pair of noise-cancelling audio headset & tweaked the equalizer settings, wow - I'm satisfied.

This is XDA and as others noted, there are patches & workaround but there is only so much we can do to overcome hardware limitations with design specifications. Look at the true HD screen itself - actually, it sounded pretty good paired with a Big Blue bluetooth travel speaker.

Just sit back, I would be surprised if the speaker isn't stressed out at max output with boosting & continued to work - I can live with a bit of distortion if that's the tradeoff. You can always RMA and wait for a new one to see if it's better (newer production batch #) - can you send it back & willing to wait, I won't as I will not let this beauty out of sight - too busy exploring KitKat and it's functions.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lyxdeslic:
Great response. Thank you. I think I'll simply look past it. I always have headphones on anyway, and I'm pleased with the output in that department. Cheers.

I guess this not new at all, but did not found it as a suggestion in the forum.

When i select to change an icon it would be nice to be able to select from an icon pack.

General support for icon packs would be nice too.
[Themer General Discussion] alldroid:
you mean to change an icon ? just download the icons you want,or make them,add them to your phone,then when you click it to edit you should see your icons folder via the gallery
[Themer General Discussion] ThemerSupport:
You are able to manually change icons on the homescreen by holding down on the icon - edit - and select an icon pack from there. Icon packs such as Nox work well, as well as other ones by KovDev. We are working on including full icon pack support soon :)
[Themer General Discussion] buffos:
Thx for the reply. I did try with just one icon pack (Flatcons White) to see if its working, but no icon pack shows up as an available option when trying to edit the icon. This is why i posted the suggestion in the first place. I will try with more packs.

Thx a lot for your time and effort on this great product!

[Themer General Discussion] alldroid:
step by step

find the icons you want to use and copy them to your device,ie gallery

on the main screen press the icon you want to change until the edit box pops up,when it does press edit

the next box will have a pic of the icon at the top and the icon text underneath,press the icon

in the next box you should see a popup with your gallery in,press the gallery icon and find the icon you want to use.

hope this helps a bit have done a few screenies to show
[Themer General Discussion] ThemerSupport:
What [MENTION=4960591]alldroid[/MENTION] said is very good.

I also recommend looking at Jeppe Foldager's Copy.com icon pack folder. They all image files so you can find them easily in your gallery.

Here is the link: https://www.copy.com/s/DxsaXLatvBGf/Share/Icons
[Themer General Discussion] buffos:
Perhaps i was not clear. I know the procedure to change the icon. I just tried with Flatcons White icon pack and there was not option to select an icon from the library, so i thought this was not possible at all (copying icons one by one is not very practical)

I then tried Umbra icon pack and it worked fine (meaning i see it as an option to pick an icon from). So i guess some icon packs work with themer and some not

The one i mentioned before (Flatcons white) for some reason it does not work with Themer (works with nova, widgetlocker etc...), so i jumped into wrong conclusions. I wonder though why its not working

Thx a lot for your time again

The phone has been working flawlessly since launch, until this last week where now my phone randomly shuts off and is unable to start again until I plug it into a charger and hold the power button. When it turns on it doesn't have a low battery (for example I turned it on and it said 30% battery still).

And then I can unplug it and start using it, but it has done this about 3 times today. Is it because of the software update?

Hey

Try doing it this way:

1. go to "http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/" and download the correct and latest firmware for your region.

2. extract the downloaded file ONCE ONLY.

3. open odin3 and select pda and select the extracted file.

4. connect your phone in download mode and hit start.

DONT USE THE PIT FILE AND MAKE SURE RE-PARTITION IS UNCHECKED.

Let me know if it works..

[Moto X Q&A] teddy2122:
Are you using the cydia impactor correctly? I had this issue because i was trying to use the "telnet {ip} 2222" command in the impactor instead of the command prompt. to do it correctly:

open the impactor

use the drop down menu on the impactor, choose "# start telnetd as system on port 2222"

Hit start

when that has completed, Open up a new command prompt window and type telnet {ip} 2222"

you should now be connected

Link Failed file exists - SOLVED

I fell your pain. I struggled with the same error. When I figured it out I felt like an idiot. After you open the telnet session in Cydia Impactor, move over to the command prompt to run "telnet {device ip} 2222". I assume you attempted to run this in Cydia Impactor as well.
[Moto X Q&A] clevertrevor777:
A buddy just showed me the solution... You were exactly correct. Also, for anyone else in the same situation, also ensure that telnet is activated in windows.

CONTROL PANEL -> PROGRAMS AND FEATURES -> TURN WINDOWS FEATURES ON OR OFF -> SCROLL DOWN AND CHECK THE TELNET CLIENT BOX

Hopefully that helps someone out there. Happy rooting!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnhelliwell:
I've got this issue where incoming calls and texts are not matching to the contacts database when the international format is used (so incoming 01202 123456 matches if the number is stored in the phone book as 01202 123456 but not if it's +441202 123456)

Seems it's quite common with ROMs / Phones from China.

My phone is a Cube 5H A5300 (a remarkably good bit of kit for the money if I could fix this dam issue) , Android 4.2.1, and MIUI 3.11.15. I don't think this is a MIUI issue hence posting here.

I've been through the suggestions that seemed to offer the best chance of a fix :-

Changing the MIN_MATCH in framework.jar and MMS.apk, and checking that strict comparison if odd from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2268120

Adding ro.phone.min_match=7 to build.prop from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160343

Various other suggestions relating to stuff in settings.

So I'm at a lost to know where to go next.

Anyone got any suggestions about where number matching is handled in Android? Where can I look for places to check ?

Exactly the same problem, also UK

Incoming calls show up in the format 07785 nnnnnn but my phone book has the numbers stored in +44 7785 nnnnnn format, with the result incoming calls only show the number and not the detail in my contacts/people.

I also tried ro.phone.min_match= using 9 and 7 as variables but it made no difference

I have the THL W8s running Android 4.2.1

Brilliant phone but his bug is killing it for me.

Really look forward to a solution
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whalesg:
I found the solution for bog standard Android devices, I have a THL W8s running 4.2.1 but it should work on Androids 4.1.x / 4.2.x / 4.3.x according to the threads below.

No credit to me, all down to the guys on XDA, but as a bit of novice it took me ages to trawl all the posts on this subject before finally finding the solution that worked - and easily. It will also avoid you installing lots of apps of playstore that for me anyway either didn't work or gave a poor hack of a work around. In addition, this solution provides a whole host of other fixes and enhancement, brilliant piece of work from the two developers.

Start by removing all your contacts, either export/delete from People to re-import or as in my case delete the corporate email/contacts account

Tip: Reboot after almost every step

1) Your device must be rooted

2) You must be able to install apps direct from your phone: System Settings / Security / Unknown Sources (Unknown Sources may be in a different place)

Then the heart of it:

Install the Xposed Framework

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

Full instructions in the thread

Then install GravityBox it's not the a ROM, just the Xposed Framework Module

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2316070

Again, full instructions in the thread (Make sure you have a tick next to Gravity Box in the Xposed Framework and reboot)

Then: GravityBox -> General Fixes -> Fix Caller ID

Reboot, re-add or re-import your email/contacts, either add the account or import from contacts and there you go, fixed.

Here's one that didn't work for me but may be worth a try if your version of Android isn't supported with the above solution:

Search on: ro.phone.min_match= where you put a 9, 8, 7 etc after the =

I used ES File Explorer to mount /system R/W and edit the build.prop file, but as I said, after ages of hacking around to get the fix in it didn't work for me.

BTW: I bought the THL W8s after busting my HTC One and not wanting to shell out too much to replace it. All-in-all I'm very impressed with my cheap Chinese Android phone (£155 on eBay), and now that this bug is fixed I'm really chuffed with it. The dual sim/dual standby function saves me carrying two phones, another bonus.
