[Samsung Captivate Glide] deepon1988:
Hello XDA,

I have a 1 year old AT&T Captivate Glide (Unrooted):

Model Number: SGH-I927

Android Version: 4.0.4

Baseband Version: I927UCLJ3

Kernel Version: 3.1.10-I927UCLJ3-CL970642 se.infra@SEP-126 #3 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 11 14:00:57 KST 2012

Build Number: IMM76D

It would be very helpful if somebody told me the difference between Rooting and Unlocking the phone.

Can you please also tell me the most reliable way to root it and the most stable kernel and ROM out there for this phone?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] seekdatruth101:
I hope you have found your answer by now with a search. If not...

UNLOCKING allows you to take a GSM (SIM card) phone to any carrier

ROOTING allows you SuperUser (full administrative) access to your devices Android OS

You'll find that this phone is rather easy to root, let me know if you still need some help.

Hi..

A newbie here. Been using android for a while, have also changed couple of handsets down the years.I was wondering if there is any way to access my call logs from a while ago using Google account.

* I understand if I had call log backup app to calendar, I would have the log, but I did not install on that hanset.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
When I choose which contacts to display the phone doesn't seem to save them. I just want the phone to display my contacts from my Google account. I choose my Google account and press OK. Then when I go back to the contacts screen my Google contacts are showing. When I leave the contacts page and go back in, it displays all my contacts from all the accounts I have on the phone. I then have to repeat the process again.

If I choose Contacts to display > Customize > the choose my Google account, the contacts appear, but once I leave the contacts page and return all the contacts from all my accounts are showing. The accounts I have are WhatsApp, Corporate and Google.

I am using the Go Launcher and I am rooted. Can anyone help?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
Can anyone help with this?

I am trying to display only the contacts with phone numbers. When I customise the contacts to display it works, but once i close the contacts and open it again it displays all the conatcts from all accounts.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
In Settings > Accounts > Do u have another sync for contacts except for Google?

I only have Google contacts so I can't test...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
Thanks for your reply. In Settings > Accounts I have the following accounts:

Corporate, Dropbox, Facebook, Google, Sync.ME and WhatsApp.

What should I be looking for here?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Tap on Whatsapp for example and see if you have a line for contacts sync. If yes, disable! :p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
I have disabled the contact sync on the Whatsapp account and on the Corporate account, but the problem still occurs.

I have gone into the contacts app > accounts and turned off auto-sync app data, but that does not work either.

No matter what accounts I choose to display, it always defaults back to All contacts.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Deleting Whatsapp and Corporate contacts from Contacts app should solve it.

(actually this is the procedure to remove Facebook contacts)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
Sorry for being stupid, but how do I remove these accounts from the Contacts app? When I try to remove the account from the settings menu I got the following message: "Removing this account will delete all of its messages, contacts and other data from the phone".

I don't want to remove the contacts from my phone. I just want them to not display on the contacts app. You could do this easily on the Galaxy S2.

Thanks for your help.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
I've installed Whatsapp (I don't use it) and Contacts are linked to Contacts app so you can't delete them.

Maybe the app resets the custom display when you close it :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
That is what seems to be happening. The contact app seems to resetting my custom display whenever I close it. Then it will show the contacts from all of my accounts on the phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
I now have Whatsapp so I was able to make some tests and on my end the Contact app keeps my choice and only displays my Whatsapp contacts in the list, even after leaving the app.

Try to clear all data of your data.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
I have deleted the data from the Contacts app and the Contacts storage app in the Settings of the phone. The phone now displays contacts from my Google account and Whatsapp account, but it still resets to show All contacts when the app is closed even when I choose which account to display.

What I have now is better than what I previously had as it does not display the contacts from my corporate account, so I am grateful for that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbroogw1:
I tried a factory reset to fix this, but it still didn't work correctly. I also noticed that all of my contacts were joined to other contacts. I've had to go into each contact manually and separate them and then join them back to the correct contact. A major hassle. I've never had this problem before.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XaoDefy:
I know this is an old thread, but I found the same problem today and I think it could be useful for people facing this issue.

The problem is the Go Launcher contacts icon on the dock. If you replace it with the contacts app it will remember your contacts to display preference.

It seems to be some difference between Go Launcher's phone and contacts and the system phone and contacts apps.
[LG Optimus G Pro] argolfermd:
Is anyone else experiencing an extremely muffled in call mic with CM roms? I have tried several different CM/CM based roms and all are doing the same thing. Both 4.3 and 4.4 roms. Wife started complaining that she couldn't hear me soon after I flashed a CM rom, so I left myself a voicemail, flashed back to a stock based rom, and left another voicemail. Difference is night and day. I have tried reflashing the stock radio over top of the CM flash, but no noticeable difference.

Anyone else experiencing this, or have any ideas on how to fix? This is very annoying, but not enough to make me give up Kit Kat. I usually just talk louder into the phone.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Mervingio:
Are you on T-Mobile?
[LG Optimus G Pro] argolfermd:
Sorry. I should have included that in the original post. E980 on AT&T
[LG Optimus G Pro] donalgodon:
It's a known issue with no fix in sight. What's worse is using the speakerphone. There's a huge amount of ocho.

After struggling with this device for some weeks, I finally sold it, and honestly, do regret that. Even with stock ROM, it was a great value for the money, but I'm sorta hoping for something similar in the future.

IF the LGOG Pro had an unlocked bootloader and was as fully supported and functional as other devices by CM/AOSP, it would probably have been the last device I ever bought until it literally could not power on anymore.

It's such a shame that LG has abandoned it the way that they have, but if you've ever wondered why LG is getting their ass handed to them in the smartphone market by Samdung, this lazy attitude toward supporting fantastic hardware is a good example to illustrate why.

Their solution is to simply leave the market and put their focus elsewhere.

So sad.

Where's the company that understands how powerfully they could position themselves in the market by being friendly with the Open Source community?

They don't exist.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xummy111:
Hi,

I just bought a year old T-Mobile MDA111 from Germany and need to change the operating system to WWE. I downloaded the Getdevicedata.exe file but cant seem to get it to work (probably since i dont understand german!). I tried copying it to ( \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\XDA-Tools\ ) but couldnt find \XDA-tools. Even when i saved it in programs and ran it from there it did not work.

I managed to figure out the following though:

Model: PH20B

Language: GER

Oerator code: T-MOB 101

ROM: 1.06.01

Ext. ROM: 1.06.115

Radio: 1.00.00

Could anyone help me!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xummy111:
Re: I've read the Getting Started section but im still stuck

I managed to find the DeviceData.txt which gave me the following - PH20B O B GER R T-MOB101 1.06.01 01 1.06.115 1.00.00 00.00

I have now downloaded the following : BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship

I also managed to use editfix.bat to edit the correct details and i dont think i saw any errors.

BUT.... once i tried running BAUpgrade, i got this error - Radio Image file checksum error

What now??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
The 1.42 rom that you downloaded is a type II rom thus the editfixbat will not work (you will get an ERROR in the dos window).

The best is just follow the upgrage instructions of the 1.42 rom as per wiki, it will work and you will end up with a WWE device that is branded by that operator.

Then all you need to do is play in wiki the extended rom kitchen.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xummy111:
Thanks,

Since that post, i tried updating to the current German T-Mobile ROM and this was successful.

Do you think i would be able to manage just the same if i download the Dutch or UK version and work with those? I am currently downloading the following:

Dear MDA111user, i hate bothering people but you seem to be the one who can really help me!

I followed the upgrade instructions as per wiki as you told me but i am still getting errors. Do you know which would be the best ROM to use since i need to change language from GER to WWE?

For your info the current status of my MDA111 is as follows:

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
There is no BEST rom, some of us like the 1.31 others 1.40 and others the 1.42. Can't tell you what to do only what I have done, and I have had them all.

Can't help you on the errors unless you tell me what they are. The wiki update page is tried and tested and works, well did for me and many others.

The getting started was written based on Type I roms, Now we have type II and we bypass the county code error with the MA_noID....exe file.

So if you want more help you need to tell us what you have done and what went wrong.
[HTC Desire C] maniknarang:
I am currently using CM 10 + N.O.P.E kernel 900OC but when i shift the maximum CPU frequency to 900MHz, my phone suddenly restarts and is clocked at 600MHz(which is the default value). I have tested this with other ROMs as well.

Anybody with the same error or know how to fix this?:confused:
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
It happens because your phone can't handle 900mhz. Keep the frequency at a level where your phone doesn't restart.

3) if yes, than how?

please give suggestions
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rishabh22:
1. You will have to work with microsoft visual studio and windows phone sdk.

2. Yes it is possible

3. You can use htmlagilitypack for parsing the html. This is a very nice tutorial for that.

Ofcourse you should be familiar with programming in C# and XAML. You can easily find tutorials for these.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
You could also use the AppStudio, which is an online environment for creating simple apps. It's way less powerful than Visual Studio + WP8 SDK, but it doesn't require a download and it's reportedly very easy to use (I'm used to VS, so AppStudio is no big deal to me, but you may find it more your speed).

The last few days my non-rooted, all stock Note 3 has been wigging out. Symptoms are as follows. At least once a day the phone power button will NOT allow me to long press to turn phone off. The lock screen will NOT work. The camera app launches but there is no on-screen video. Messaging hangs when trying to send a text. All of these symptoms require a battery pull. I uninstalled Handcent as it was basically the only app I updated recently. The N3 is on the latest VZW firmware.

Just in case if anyone is wondering why I didnt go for TWRP, only one reason, TWRP doesn't support USB Mass Storage mode.

[HTC Sensation] shantur:
I don't think it does any more http://teamw.in/DataMedia
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
That's only talking about why there's no USB mass storage mode on devices like the Nexus 5 that don't have a slot for external SD cards (and instead have solely internal storage). The new Note 3 and Galaxy S4 have external SD card slots so I don't think USB mass storage mode was removed.

Nice CWM based Recovery, haven't seen one since using HTC :D. Thanks dev you just add more "sensation" to our device

Is there any chance you can make the flashable CWM too?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
USB mass storage isn't working on the TWRP build :( Also, there's a weird issue that whenever I try to shut down the phone, it just reboots to recovery.

On another note, something interesting to experiment with would be building TWRP with Sebastian's 3.4 kernel and adding USB OTG as a mount option. Since Sebastian's kernel has self-powered USB OTG, we could flash things through USB OTG :)

I'm facing the same problem.

Tried to format the partition mmcblk0p23 using mkfs.ext4, but it hangs at the info-line.

Why isn't it possible to restore the partition?
[HTC Sensation] shantur:
If you really want to go deep search for QHSUSB QPST BrixFix to find how to use them.

You can find all the tools here https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8IBb66EDFdRSkh0cUNPa05wdm8&usp=sharing

Dont ask me how to use them. I have never tried.

With these things you might be able to restore your phone.

I can try to make it work if someone with broken data can send me the phone in London.

or the easy option is buy an bigger and faster SDCard and mount the data in sdcard. I am using this method for Lollipop as data requirements are bigger than partition.

For how to do this check for the SD Card mod thread.
[HTC Sensation] martix90:
Thanks a lot. I don't think the QHSUSB works here. This only fixes the bootloader as far as I could see. But the bootloader is fine.

I also tried the SD-EXT MOD (I think you mean this one http://xdaforums.com/htc-sensation/development/mod-sd-ext-boot-mod-cm12-t3068867). But with all mods except the first one, TWRP crashes while "Installing kernel". The first MOD runs through, but at the end, when it says "Updating partitions", that it is still unable to mount data.

To send you the phone and to send it back costs around 30€ and I don't think you will work for free... I'm not sure if this is worth it... Do you think there is a chance you can fix it?

As far as my understanding goes, there are corrupt blocks on the data partition, created by a bug in the emmc-controller, which was triggered by TWRP. Are those blocks really defect now, or does only the filesystem think they are defect?
[HTC Sensation] WnG88:
Have you tried flashing 4ext recovery on there then creating a new partition table using 4ext?

Afterwards you can flash twrp and convert the partitions to f2fs and install Lollipop.

Lots of notes on twrp not working well with creating partitions.
[HTC Sensation] martix90:
Hi, thanks for the hint. I just tried using the SD-EXT Mod with 4EXT-Recovery - same problem 4EXT crashes on "Installing kernel". The first MOD from the page succeeded, but still unable to mount data, sadly :(

Any further ideas?
