[HTC Amaze 4G] MrFahrenheit2k:
A year ago I successfully rooted and S-OFF my HTC Amaze. When my friend bought the same phone, he asked me to root and S-OFF it for him. When time came to do the wire trick, I encountered a strange problem: when I touch camera pin with a wire (without being grounded to sd-card slot), the phone just reboots. I tried to do the wire trick the opposite way (permanently ground the wire and then touch the pin two times) with no positive results. I tested my own phone with the same wire and it won't reboot, so clearly it's the new phone's issue. Is it some sort of protection added recently or something else? Both phones are asian models. Please, help!

Update: dammit, I'm a silly-silly man. I just lost my patience, because I tried to do the trick the way I described for two or three hours. Finally it worked. Strange issue, though, never heard or found anything on the internet about it. Ah well, you may scrap the thread if you will.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gripen40k:
Sometimes battery powered devices can build up a charge differential from yourself or other things (that's why you always have to ground yourself when working on expensive electronics), however I've never heard of something like this where you ground the wire and then touch the pin and it still causes a reboot.

Who knows...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mooitsandroo:
So last night i was using my phone and all of a sudden my whole screen became unresponsive, so i had to turn the screen off and back on again. The screen was responsive again besides one portion of it. The portion that doesn't work seems to be a line going across the bottom half of my screen. This is an issue for me because it causes me to miss click things and i can no longer use the gesture keyboard. I've had this phone since February and haven't had issues up until now. Anybody else experience this? I wasn't gonna upgrade to the nexus 5 but now it looks like i might have to.

I'm having the same issue

I've had my Nexus 4 since June of 2013. Then all of a sudden, last Sunday (10/12/14), there is a small section of the lower have of the screen that is unresponsive. It goes right across W, S, and Z. Z isn't much of a problem, but W and S are. S for the obvious reason; W because that's in my name.

My phone has the 11-20 build of Gummy on it, I just updated the firmware to MJA (hoping to get data) and it was running well for the past hour. I rebooted to recovery to try installing the Euroskank rom and now my phone will not turn on, it had more than 90% battery when I rebooted so I know that is not the issue. When I plug or unplug it from my computer, it will acknowledge that something was plugged in (by making a sound) but not show what was plugged in. Any recommendations as far as what I can do to fix this?

Sometimes holding power for what seems like a long time helps, pull battery put back in, put on charger leave alone, are you getting the battery icon?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ferrerj:
I held down the power button long enough to watch a couple plays in the Ole Miss game, pulled the battery and put it back in, no luck. I plugged it in and did not get any battery notification. I did find that by holding the power button while it is plugged into my computer it seems to power on and off on some level because it would alternate plugged in and unplugged sounds, still with nothing else being shown like the option to view files or see anything on the phone screen. Is there anything else I can do?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ParkerParker:
Well all you can really do is make sure your USB cable charger is working, let it charge without touching it for several hours, could also be a battery problem /hardware problem? Any one else? Have any advice??

I have bricked my phone pretty bad a few times, but I have always at least had the battery icon on the front show up,, hopefully a full charge well cure it,, just Checking but by power you mean the top right botton if the phone is facing you?

Can you get to recovery or download mode?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ferrerj:
Not from what I can tell. The screen doesn't show anything, the LED doesn't light up. Is there a trick where I could trigger it using ODIN or HEIMDAL?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
Put battery in phone and charge for 2 to 3 hours

without

turning phone on.

Take battery out of phone and leave it out for 1/2 hour.

Then put battery back in and see if you can get into 'Download Mode' - Hold Home Button AND Volume Down Button at same time and while keeping them held Press the Power Button till you get screen asking if you want to go into Download mode by confirming with a Volume Up press.

If you can get there maybe you can use one of the Odin/heimdal methods to recover.

Or even more simply - Odin Philz recovery and flash an MJA ROM - That's something I'd try first if you can do that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ferrerj:
I just charged my phone over night, pulled the battery for an hour and still no response from my phone what so ever. I would be ok with a total wipe if at all possible at this point as it does not seem to be booting at all. Could this be a bootloader issue somehow? I updated the firmware not long before this issue occurred and it booted up from that for awhile and this issue started after trying to reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] frostedunit:
At this point, your best bet is to take it to Sprint and get a warranty replacement. Not much you can do if it won't turn on

Why don't you make a usb jig and force it into download mode,I think I seen a video on you tube on how to make one,I haven't tried it myself but I heard they work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JD1zzle:
Just checking, didn't see this confirmed. The screen is non responsive currently, but you said that using the power button yields USB acknowledgement..

Have you tried a complete power down and boot in to Download mode (Power + Volume Down + Home) and then plugging it in and seeing if ODIN recognizes it in Com? It is possible (although not super probable) that you are experience a flash screen/screen on issue that could potentially be repaired by a reflash.. I know a lot of the 4.3 updated were experiencing lack of flash screen but if left alone the phone would still boot.

Worth a try, if you haven't already.. Stranger things have worked for me in the past.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Jocelyn:
Yeah, I've been seeing other people having similar problems after updating even on other carriers. My guess would be that the problem is related to going from 4.2 to 4.3 coupled with user data/cache of system apps and Knox, but I really have no idea. Anyway, Thanks again :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Jocelyn:
Well scratch that, it's back to its usual behaviour. Could flashing via odin fix this or could it be a hardware issue? I still feel like it's related to the 4.3 update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
Re-flaching Odin may fix it.

But it could very well be a hardware issue. I've had a couple of phone with batteries that were fairly new have this issue. Got new battery, charged and replace it and all worked.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] JonGoten:
Hi, I´m new heres. I have search trought the board, but not answer found.

I had no problems to connect my old Nokia 6600 phone to the integrated handsfree of my Ford Focus car.

Now, with my Qtek 9090, I can´t associate them using bluetooth.

I´ve tried with the 1.22 rom version (with some patches), and with the 1.4 rom version, and nothing happens, always get an error after typing the "0000" password.

If I try to discover the services of my Ford, the 9090 sais that no services are available.

What´s happening? What upgrade must I apply to my 9090?

Any suggestion will be great.

Thank you very much.

I flashed TWRP to my tablet using the ADB/dd commands mentioned in the TWRP website. Now I wanna use the CWM that is included in the boot.img of cyanogenmod.

How do I do it? Do I just boot into fastboot and run fastboot to flash CWM?

Here's the adb commands use to flash TWRP

Download the above file. Copy the file to /sdcard/fotakernel.img and run the following commands using terminal emulator or in adb shell:

su
dd if=/sdcard/fotakernel.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

Here's the fastboot commands use to flash CWM according to cyanogenmod.

fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img
fastboot -i 0xfce reboot

thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] klau1:
S3, NOTE 10.1 -> NOTE 3, NOTE 10.1 2014 all have incompatible file formats causing non-interchangeable notes between devices OF THE SAME LINE!!!

This diminishes the utility of the ENTIRE line since the even the KEY SIGNATURE FUNCTIONALITY can't be relied upon to work beyond the PRODUCT CYCLE of ONE DEVICE.

Samsung has a lot to learn from Microsoft.

Microsoft inspires confidence of the software and file formats since file compatibility in each release in MAINTAINED. I know my documents will work across each generation of software release.

You just can't use Samsung software suites on serious tasks because Samsung is a joke.

Or the following will befall upon you:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] cubanonoobie:
I have a Note 3 and a Note 8 LTE . The Native Snote in the Note 8 is not the same (it is like the one in the Note 2). I just downloaded the S Note apk from Xda that is compatible with the S Note 3. Now I sync them through evernote and I see the exact same thing on both devices. lf I open a new note on one device or make changes to an existing note it syncs perfectly, I can post pics or proof if you are interested.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] PocketFuzz:
Yes, cubanonoobie, please elaborate. I have a Note 3 running jelly bean and the s notes get saved with the file extension of .spd, my Note 8 is the wifi only version but is running KitKat and the s notes get saved with a file extension of .snb

I can send (via bluetooth) s notes from the Note 8 to the Note 3 and the Note 3 will convert the .spd to the newer .snb, but of course, now if I edit the s note on the Note 3, it cannot be accepted back by the Note 8.

I really would like to know how you got evernote to intervene.

Also neither of my devices is rooted, and I am really not willing to risk rooting just yet. Thanks for any ideas!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] cubanonoobie:
OK sure, I can elaborate. First things first, if you are in North America the galaxy note note 3 was updated to kit Kat a while ago so you might want to check into that also. On your note 8 you have to download the Snote from the next generation devices. I got the apk file from this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2677686

Once you download the compatible snote into your note 8 you will be able to open and modify snotes on either device because the will always be in spd format. Now you can continue transferring them vis Bluetooth but the beauty of Evernote is that the latest version is integrated with Snote. So, if you have Evernote installed on your devices they will automatically show your SNotes too. So if you create an Snote on either device it will synchronize it to all your devices. Makes sense? You do not need root at all. Let me know if this link works for you. I am not very at good at pasting these links.

But if you Google it under "snote apk" you will find the link to xda. Make sure to choose the one coming from S5 thread. Good luck!

You've clearly never tried opening a docx or xlsx file on Office 2003.

Now that was a nightmare. All the idiots who got a new computer which saved as docx as default, meaning the ENTIRE company couldn't open their 80 page document... Oh yes, Mocrosoft does compatibility so very well....

Anyhow, this is why I use good oldfashioned txt format(droidedit, android's equivalent of n++) Anything I need drawn, I do in a sketch apps. Evernote is useless for pc and if I need a txtfile as widget, Colornote. Lets me 'open as' any txt file through file manager to import. Easy peasy. (and has sync.)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] klau1:
No offense to you, but what a bunch of losers. Either the IT team dropped the ball or the users can't follow simple instructions. DOC should have been set to default or the users should have been notified.

I didn't start using DOCX until only very recently. There seems to be little purpose for docx, especially when most of the 3rd party apps used to only read DOC.

At least it's an option to save in Office 99-2003 format, unlike SNOTE. So it's irrelevant point in comparison to the SNOTE issue.

Oh and lets be fair here, Office 2003 was 10 years ago, Note 10.1 2012 was TWO.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
Well, the IT dept was comprised of people who googled how to access the registry on Windows, thought an i3 and IntelHD was more than sufficient for advanced very heavy Photoshop use, and that >2GB files could easily be used over a 5Mbps line on a cloud server....

So that probably tells you enough about their qualifications. ;) And since I'm a woman, they refused to hear a word I said. After all, what could anyone without a phallus possibly know about technology... :rolleyes: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: (Their words, not mine. They were just a bit more crass about it.)

When you have a note open, you can hit Optionkey --> Share Via. This gives you a menu to save as S Note file, Image file, PFD and TXT.

The same can be done for an entire notebook by hitting the gear icon on the top right of a notebook. This also gives you the option to export the Notebook to Google Drive or as an Image/PDF to your internal memory.

Not ideal, but it's better than nothing.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fonejacker:
I recently phoned Samsung UK Customer Support to ask if S-Note was available for Windows XP operating system.

I was told that S-Note was not available for any PCs versions at all, and there were no plans to make it available for PCs.

When I said that this was likely incorrect as I had seen it available for Win 7, they went through to two senior manager who confirmed S-Note was never made for PCs.

They obviously hadn't a clue as later that day I found S-Note on their own website for Windows 7, here: S-Note

I have a laptop running Windows XP and it would be useful to be able to transfer S-Note documents back and forth with the Note 3.

I wonder if anyone knows if S-note is available for Win XP anywhere?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
The managers were perfectly correct. The app S-Note is NOT available for Windows.

What you have there is S-Note Viewer. It can only be used as a file manager and viewer, not as a note taking app. It is not S-Note.

And no, Win7 -only apps can't run on XP. Completely different system. The only thing they ever managed to do that with was Halo 2 (for Vista), and it ran through DOS after severe hacking of the game's files. (Still, Halo 2 ran better on XP than it does on 8, which is to say, it doesn't run on 8 at all. Won't even launch.)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] fonejacker:
The UK Customer support is a mixed bag. Occasionally they are very helpful, and at other times rather useless. I recall when the Note 3 first came out they tried to convince me there was no such feature as region blocking or similar, and all their models would accept all sim cards at all times, even though I had the box and label in front of me stating otherwise.

ShadowLea, unfortunately your well intentioned attempt to be cleverly pedantic on behalf of Samsung support has failed. The program on their website simply states S-Note. Neither the agent nor managers knew they has an S-Note program of any kind on their website, It is irrelevant in illustrating the ignorance of customer services and their managers whether the program is a viewer or a full editing program.

Furthermore it is blindingly obvious that the S-Note Windows 7 program doesn't work on a windows XP machine. I didn't ask if the Win 7 version could run on an XP system. If it did I would be using it now and wouldn't have posted my message.

Now if anyone actually knows if S-Note is available anywhere (of any flavour or colour) for an Windows XP system, please advise. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
Have you bothered to look at the screenshots? (No, you haven't.)

Look very carefully, and tell me what name it says at the top of the screens... ;)

You asked if it was available. I told you why it wasn't. If you can't figure out that answer C includes answer A & B, that's not my fault. Is it available? No, because the app wasn't made for XP. There, perhaps that makes more sense? ;)

Just a headsup for future reference. Customer support for large companies is ALWAYS outsourced. You weren't speaking to Samsung, you were speaking to a callcenter located quite likely not even in the same city as Samsung's local HQ. :(

It's why people with questions that can't be answered with 'did you turn it off an on again?' shouldn't waste their time calling the service line. You don't get the company, you get an idiot who barely knows how to press the enter key. (And when they say 'we'll pass it on' or 'we'll discuss it in the next meeting', no, they really won't. They don't even belong to the company, let alone speak to anyone of said company.)

On a last note about the Region Lock. I was telling people about it weeks before the Note 3 even came out. (Not that anyone listened. Told them that it came for the S4, S3 and Note 2 in an update as well, still didn't listen, still happened.) And that info did come directly from Samsung itself. (You may draw your own conclusions as to how I came to know about it.) The Customer support/callcenters denied it because the info was still confidential and internal back then. And thus they weren't informed. (The first month)
