**major update**

Hey guys, so I've just taken the back

CASING

not the cover. Off the phone.

I've been looking for breaks in solder points on the Logic Board and around it.

- The Camera

ISN'T

smashed it was the lens on the case..

- Looks a tad dusty.

- Semi Boot-Loops have disappeared! booted the phone with the case off and the semi boot loops are gone tried booting multiple times each time with success!

- No breaks on the logic board from what I can see as far!

- For some reason the Camera app would not connect to the Camera. "Can't connect to Camera!" maybe the camera flex cable isn't in properly.

- First boot with case off, battery gave false reading of -1021032418914 (something along those lines). That's usually caused by a lose battery correct me if I'm wrong?

- Everything seemed a lot more responsive and working.

Hmmm.

So removing the screws and taking the back casing off made the Semi Boot-Loops go away.

Maybe a part of the back casing was pushing on the Logic board and shorting it out?

Maybe the screws torque where messing with it (e.g. on a HDD with computers the simpliest change in toque on the screws in the HDD can screw the HDD.)

But the torque of the screws where very loose.

Any ideas are much appreciated!! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dakura:
Yep, probably a short-circuit or dust problem or displacement somewhere around there. What you said proves that somehow the phone was physically damaged. You may need to actually disassemble all the pieces, inspect them and put them all back together, and it still may not work, for now, try cleaning the dust and tighten the screws, fasten the board.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeelTheBuzz:
[MENTION=5377995]Dakura[/MENTION] thanks for the help today Dakura!

Finally got around to putting everything back together after an evaluation, made the flex-cables all snug and tightened up the screws a lot!

The phone appears to be working now.

at 100% it even vibrates now when i tap things it never used to.

I couldn't quite locate the problem, but I have a feeling that one of the flex cables could have come loose but only just enough to generate fluctuation of power between full and under to keep the phone on.

Hopefully the phone stays stable!

[MENTION=4484008]theunderling[/MENTION] thanks for recommending me HawkerPauls Nuke script, I'll be using that every time I re-rom my phone from now on! :)

Will update the thread on a possible fix for anyone else with this problem.

It's always good to run through every possibility and solution to fix problems before going out and blowing money.

HTC Sense

I'm a bigger fan of HTC Sense. I notice the battery life is better, and reception is better. I'm also big on using the home button for the home menu by long pressing, and google now by swiping up. I haven't found a way to get the functionality on AOSP. And the camera interface is better in Sense

hi , i just bought an S4 ( GT i9505 ) but the firmware installed on it seems kinda weird .. i can't find it online , the only thing i've found so far is that when people try flashing other ROMs from this firmware , it fails on the MODEM .. i nees more help regarding this ROM ..

MODEL NUMBER : GT-I9505

ANDROID VERSION : 4.2.2

BASEBAND VERSION : I9505DXUAMCL

KERNEL VERSION : 3.4

BUILD NUMBER : JDQ39.I9505XXUAMCL

please help :( i haven't tried flashing yet a new rom , since my internet is really slow , downloading 1.4GB file takes a day and some hours ..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
So what is your question actually? I can't figure it out what you are trying to ask...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwalalufazey:
what i wanted to know is that , is the S4 i bought legit ? i mean in my place there are lots of S4 clones , but what makes this different is that clones in my place use exynos quad cores , but this S4 i have right here has a snapdragon and 1.89 ghz krait something ..

plus i wanted to know more about it's version , as i can't OTA update , says it's custom , i'm not even rooted and everything is stock ..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Haha your title says need more info, well It would help if you provide more info for us to work out if you have fake or not,

Goto menu ➡settings ➡device ➡ about device and either provide a screen shot or write all the information there.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwalalufazey:
attached two screenshots , one from cpu z and another from settings
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Thanks.

From what I can see it looks legit

Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.

however I don't know what country the CSC would be.

My guess is its Indian phone

I can only find xxuamdk so with yours xxuamcl the "uam" sounds like indian.

My guess is your download is corrupt you said you have slow internet which is my clue.

I'm guessing if you get the uamdk and flash in Odin it should work.

My strong advice is if you want to root and go custom don't go for the current 4.3 with Knox boot loader.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwalalufazey:
thanks for that info , atleast i feel fine now , knowing my 17,000 PHP did not go to some S4 clone .. :)

it might take me two to three days to update though .. is it safe to use the I9505XXUDMH8-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX_FREE-ODEX-FULL 4.3 rom ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
I don't know for sure as Ive only just started down the custom ROM track with SG4, it's best to fully read all the info in the thread and understand what your reading, I am still on a learning curve myself and dont yet fully understand all the samsung methods (came from htc legend and DHD)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwalalufazey:
thanks for everything :) will post updates on what will happen .. it takes days to download the goddamn firmware .. lol ..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Yes please let's us know how you go mate :cool:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
First read and learn what Knox is and what it does. Then decide if you even want Knox on your phone. If you don't want it, stay away from that firmware you mention. Stay away from all official firmwares. Then you can only flash custom roms. That rom is Knox free, but it still contains the updated bootloader (correct me if i'm wrong).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwalalufazey:
no luck with flashing , i tried using 4.2.2 from brazil , it fails on odin , i tried repartitioning with a pit file , it says secure check fail : pit , oh my what should i do this is pretty messed up :/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Your very lucky that pit file has checks, you need to do a lot more reading about Samsung methods before messing around anymore with your phone, if you had have read up on what pit file is you would have found out NOT to go messing with that, its ment for advanced persons who know what they are doing and can be very big problem if you make error.

You asked what to do, well my friend all I can say is read read read and understand fully what you are actually reading.

I am quite advanced with HTC phones but these Samsung's are a different animal and I'm not fully understanding yet...

So please don't mess with your phone unless you know what it is your actually doing. I say this cause I have no idea why you are trying to use pit file to flash ROM.

I guess it is bad luck following me with my Wzard.

I use computer screen cleaning tissues to clean my wizard and yesterday i fugured the my buttons MESSAGING en INTERNET explorer have peeled the paint, now they do look UGLY.

This is just a warning to other clean maniacs, better wipe with damp cloth NEVER with chemicals.

and so, any ideas how i can recover that? I am in depression now over that :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] knowsleyroader:
Thats a real bummer. I think the only thing you could do is send it to be replaced by someone who fits screens etc who may have a spare one or rub the paint off completely so its just the silvers casing.

It shouldnt look out of place then and its not like you dont know what the buttons do. If anyone asks you had it custom made :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] stegz:
I wouldn't get too depressed - over time that paint is going to come off I'm afraid. The soft keys (left and right) on my 2 month old MiniS have long since lost their paint - and I'm pressing them on average maybe 9 or 10 times a day?

If you really don't want to use chemicals you should consider a lint-free cloth. I wouldn't recommend using a wet cloth (i.e. water) as it's more likely to just move dirt around and not likely to remove grease as efficiently.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Dox:
Don't feel bad mate, both of my Wizards have gone the same way. I don't use cleaning chemicals, but I do regularly wipe the screens after each call to clean the oil that builds up from skin contact, and I'm sure it's the oil that's a big contributer to the demise of the paint... Once all four buttons (mail, IE and softkeys) have gone the same, you wouldn't know the paint had ever been there. ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmittelb:
Hey there.

I suddenly have a weird noise after I wake up my screen. It is not the screenlock sound which you can activate in sound option menu. The sound is always when I wake up my screen, after the screenlock sound if it is enabled. The most anoying thing is, if I listen to music it switches from headphones to speakers while the "wake-up noise" is played. The noise, sounds a little bit like the windows sound when you plug out an USB device. Any idea what it might be? And how I deactivate it.

Oh I almost forgot there is no noise if I have my phone on vibration.

Greets and thanks in advance,

It's in the cabonrom changelog, as of 10-23, there were CM commits that prevented the use of custom kernels with a custom or altered ramdisk. This prevents the use of AJK with Carbon-rom after 10-23.

>>more here<<

how to fix it?

1) enter recovery by: vol-up + vol-down +power with the USB cable UNPLUGGED

2) flash the latest carbon nightly

[Moto X Q&A] Gs0230:
Figured out. The issue was Xposed Module uninstalled and was able to reboot currently optimizing apps
[Moto X Q&A] zoome9:
So just don't use Xposed until they update it? Or were you able to reinstall it once you had ART up and running?
[Moto X Q&A] Gs0230:
You have to update to the latest beta after you activate ART
[Moto X Q&A] rmead01:
So you installed it after enabling ART and don't have any issues? Didn't think it was working with ART at all.
[Moto X Q&A] Gs0230:
Yeah haven't had any issues so far

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xpt0:
Don't know if anyone else has had this issue in this forum, but I have found several others with same issue in other locations. No one has come up with answer and HTC has been no help.

If I lose my signal, due to location or if I drop off of wi/fi and go to cellular data, it seems that the phone loses the ability to make or receive calls or texts. For example, if I leave a strong signal area and drop to edge service or none, and then return to a good signal location, the phone shows full bars and 4G but if you try to make a call it will not connect or if someone calls in they just go to voice mail. I have to reboot the phone and all is good. This seems to happen several times a day, never any issues with iphone 4s or Galaxy S3.

Here is what I have done and then after the fact HTC sent me an email telling me to do same thing.

1. Got new sim card.....HTC is convinced that the sim from my iphone was not good.

2. Exchanged for new phone.

3. Ran phone without syncing to my google account or any downloads.

Still same issue with losing connection. Most of the time I don't realize it until someone says, hey I have been trying to call you. I reboot phone and, wow, several missed calls and bunches of texts.

Let's see what they have to offer after the complaint.

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IroniX2:
Hey, similar problem here

The difference is that I only loose mobile internet when disconnecting from wifi in AOSP roms (and GE), on sense roms it seems fine.

I have however noticed a pattern, it might help some one figure it out, but it might help you too.

I only lose Internet when disconnecting from wifi If 4G Is on, if I force my phone to not use 4G, then I don't loose network.

Also, if I do loose network, a reboot isn't required, you can simply Turn airplane mode on and off, that has always worked for me.

Ps: to force the phone off 4G I do the following :

1: open dialer

2: type : *#*#4636#*#*

3: go in "phone information"

4: under "Set preferred network type" set it to "wcdma preferred"

The reason I prefer this method is that it's always the same no matter the rom.

Pps: my baseband is 4A.17.3250.17, if that matters for any reason.

I get it too seems like the phones radio doesn't switch frequencies as smooth as other phones.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
I understand that the only differences between HTC One and developer edition is the storage and the unlocked bootloader. I have got HTC Unlocked International Edition (32 GB) from Amazon. Now the KitKat update is going to be released 60 days earlier to the dev edition. Is there a way to convert to a dev edition to receive future updates faster? Would unlocking the bootloader turn the phone into a dev edition? Or those handsets receive the updates according to IME, serial or something? Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EsJayEs:
Here's the short version on how to properly convert to Dev Edition and retain future OTA updates. Make sure to back up any data or files on the phone you don't want to lose, as this will wipe your phone and make it like new. Find your current APN settings and write them down just in case your carrier isn't shown as an option when first booting your phone after converting.

Unlock bootloader via HTCDev.com

S-Off (method varies depending on bootloader version, but most would use Rumrunner)

Change CID to BS_US001

If your MID is anything other than PN712000, change it to that.

Run RUU exe file for Dev Edition (available for download on HTCDev.com)

You can leave the bootloader unlocked and S-Off.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Will this method change to developer edition and will ensure future OTA released for the Developer Edition? Thanks!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Yes it will get OTA , if the last step is to run RUU for Dev edition.

If you install custom recovery/root on top of it, then you will have isssues with OTA.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Do I have to change to SuperCID at any stage?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
No you do not. As per the post from EsJayEs , you only need to change CID to BS_US001
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EsJayEs:
To add to that, there's no reason to ever use superCID. It's takes less than a minute to change your CID. And this is part of what ensures you receive OTA updates.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Thanks... It seems like it's not so common for people to convert to Developer Edition, all the search results I'm getting is about converting to-from GPE. Is that so uncommon right?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EsJayEs:
It's fairly common. For people on carrier branded phones that like the Sense user interface, the options are Dev Edition or International. Dev Edition has the advantage of significantly faster updates. International version has no real advantage that I know of. At the moment, the international version has a newer version of Sense, but they'll be waiting until January for Android 4.4. But those using the Dev Edition should receive that update any day now (including the updated version of Sense).
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Thanks!

I have the international version, but I will convert to Dev Ed once the 4.4 update (RUU) is released. Usually when the OTA update is released, the RUU is released at the same time? This is my first HTC phone, so I'm clueless
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EsJayEs:
Hard to say. If they release the RUU, it could be a few days or weeks after the OTA is being pushed. But the OTA will almost definitely come first. If you were to convert now, you'd have verification that your work was done properly when the OTA is pushed and successfully installs.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Good to know, I'd start converting then once I hear the OTA is being pushed to find out the result of the conversion quickly. Thanks a lot for all your help!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M_Shaaban:
Sorry to bother you again with my questions!

At any point do I need to install a custom recovery? I'm not going to root at the moment. What's the best and easy method to install/flash the RUU?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
You will need to custom recovery & root to gain S-Off, but once you have ran the dev RUU and the phone is converted, you will not need to root/recovery again.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EsJayEs:
You do not need to install custom recovery.or root. Once you have S-Off (download and use the latest version of Rumrunner http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/ for this), change your CID to BS_US001 and change your MID to PN712000.

Change your MID using the information here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2322820

Changing your CID using the Fastboot command

fastboot oem writecid BS_US001

After that, run the RUU program downloaded from here http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_a...3_SENSE50_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_3.22.1540.1.exe

Again, custom recovery and root are not required (or even useful) for this process. I strongly prefer not to use any custom recovery because it makes future OTA updates impossible.
