Ok. I'm trying it now. Both the EXE RUU and your .zip flash aren't working for me, trying to figure it out. I'm S-Off and relocked my phone.

I get the same "FAILED (remote: 22 loading zip info fail)" error, so I'm downloading a fresh ZIP to that PC directly.
[HTC Droid DNA] Spider210:
If I am Unlocked and s-off and rooted and I am sending my phone to htc directly for repair, is this all I have to run to get the phone back directly back to stock?

I have my unlock.bin file somewhere, I just need to know how to get it back to stock to be able to send back to them to not invalidate my warranty because it was unlocked using the htc process on release day
[HTC Droid DNA] billy0679:
i am having the same issue, any luck finding out why?
[HTC Droid DNA] binzokun:
pretty sure u have to be S-on to run the ruu
[HTC Droid DNA] mcdanielvzw:
Sorry, you would be wrong. You do have to be locked to run an RUU.

I ended up having to flash an original hboot, I'm pretty sure I used moonshine before to unlock and get S-Off. After that, I still had to run the 1.15 RUU and then do all the upgrades manually.

I tried the newest RUU in both exe and zip format after doing the 1.15 RUU, neither would work; I'm assuming it was still an issue with my hboot, but it wasn't worth the time to screw around with and 4G in Jacksonville downloaded the updates quickly.

Edit:

For anyone that has problems with the latest RUU, I followed this guide partially to get to 1.15:

I downloaded the RUU, and followed post 4 to return to a stock hboot
[HTC Droid DNA] MicroMod777:
Nooo. U can be s-off. I do it every time to get the latest ota.
[HTC Droid DNA] mcdanielvzw:
I said you can be s-off, I said it needed to be locked, as in the bootloader. That's the way it used to be anyway.
[HTC Droid DNA] MicroMod777:
No lock either needed. :)

Why are you flashing a splash? The post you are following quite clearly says to only do that if you have a custom splash installed, which guessing you don't. Read the text.
[HTC Droid DNA] JeffBea:
Fastboot flash splash xxxxx not

Fastboot flash spash1 xxxxx.

I don't think that the splash partition is called splash1. That is your problem I believe. The actual file can be splash1 where the xxxxx is though.

[Moto X Q&A] EvilShrike:
Hi.

I bought AT&T Moto X from Motorola.com (XT1058) and unlocked it. I'm using the phone on other carrier in other country. But I have a very annoying thing - when I start People app (Contacts) AT&T Address Book jumps in and starts loading. Then it fails, shows me some stupid text with "OK" and opens my contacts. And I have the same thing every time I start People app (if it's unloaded). Needless to say how it's annoying.

XT1058 version has bootloader locked and the phone isn't rooted.

Is it any way to remove this **** (AT&T Address Book)?

I tried:

- go to Settings/Account - there's an account "AT&T" there but it cannot be removed or disabled

- go to Settins/Apps to try to disable ATT Address Book - it can't be disabled(!), 'disable' button is greyed

Please help.
[Moto X Q&A] piskr:
It's a part of My AT&T and is not a register but the system application. You can't remove it without rooting the phone, you can only disable it. But unfortunately the disturbing AT&T contacts remain in your address book.
[Moto X Q&A] EvilShrike:
OK. how to disable it?

I just want it not to to pop up when I'm opening my Contacts.
[Moto X Q&A] piskr:
go to settings - apps - all apps, select all ATT apps and for every of them clear cache, data, force stop and disable them. Also install Clean Master to remove the remains of obsolete applications. But be very careful with it, don't remove anything you are not sure what you are doing.
[Moto X Q&A] EvilShrike:
thanks for your help, but as I mentioned in the first post that 'disable' button in "AT&T Address Book" app settings is disabled. Other at&t apps can be disabled (myAT&T and something abot VoiceMail) (and actually does) disabled.

[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
Sorry people I got no idea what is the perfect verb to put. As you know the power button should be emerging from the phone, but as I chat a lot and close the phone between messages and stuff it became.. "bent" in?

I cant really put pictures at the moment as I have no camera, but the point is, I can't use the phone properly now.. Sometimes when I try to put the phone to sleep it restarts, or pops up the "power menu" (Reboot, power off..etc) . And sometimes when I am using it the backlights just start flashing and bam, the phone reboots alone.. more terribely it sometimes just becomes stuck in a boot loop due to power button restarting the phone over and over again :P lol ?

So the question isnt really software but hardware, I tried the pin that you use to bring out the sim slot to try and push the power button out, but well.. It doesnt fit. Anyone got any idea what to do ?
[HTC One X+] kingofnice:
Take the cover off and reposition the button.
[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
Seems like there wont be any other way other than opening the cover. Guess I will just send it to a local shop to reposition.. Shouldn't cost much..

An advice for others, use the swipe2wake if you can lol ..

Is there a tool similar to the IOS's accessibility tool? You know that little box that you press on and you can choose the "Home button" or "Sleep" ..etc?
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
There WAS one, i'll see if i can find what it's called for you....haven't heard about it in at least 2years though.. (it was on the market) but have a look in the application dev section on xda

For those who don't know what I am talking about its called "Assistive touch" on the IOS.

Hi, I need help with my Xperia Go since my power button has stopped working and I used to turn on my device via fastboot with flashtool on windows 7 32bit. Now I have Windows 8.1 64bit and I can't even install fastboot drivers. I get error when installing them:

Thanks.

Edit: Ok, I got fastboot drivers installed somehow, now I cant see my device in flashtool. When I boot my xperia to fastboot, it stays there only few secs.

disable driver signature enforcement in windows then install drivers using the package given in flashtool or u can install SUS as it installs fastboot drivers by itself. But before anything it is recommended you ,uninstall the drivers which you have currently

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidave:
Hi,

I bought a Galaxy S4 I9505 off some guy on facebook for £300 (cash), he said it was an unwanted upgrade (even showed me the delivery note).

Two days later, yep, you guessed it. It's been reported lost and consequently the imei has been blacklisted.

I feel really stupid for falling for this scam and I have reported him to the fraud team on my local police website. Whether they do anything about it or not is another story.

My question is.. what can I do about it? I have a brand new, shiny £300 paper weight in my top draw!

I was thinking about buying a new logic board and hoping for a new clean imei? Or maybe buy a faulty/damaged i9505 and making a working phone from the pair?

I am not allowed to list it for sale on Swappa and I boycotted fleabay years ago, what are my options for selling abroad?

Should I just throw it? Hand it in to the police? Salvage it? Is it even still feasible to sell it abroad? I heard AT&T were sharing T-mobiles blacklist database to make it worldwide? Is this true?

Thanks in advance for any help, I will certainly learn from this mistake in future.

Dave
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D4RKL04RD:
I would hack the imei and change a bit here and there 300 is a good price for a S4 :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LastStandingDroid:
you should someohow contact the police and if you know the person who sold it you should give the police the numbers, this is really sad that people do this to others. but i'm sure you've heard when its "cheap" and theres no paper that the person has purchased it then you should just leave.

I'm going to report moderators to decide wether this thread should be open or not, but if i was you i would give it in.

We do not advocate changing IMEI's here. And we REALLY don't discuss how to do it. Any talk like this is a HUGE no no.

To the OP, You have a nice Wifi device at least. That's something. It's not like teh device is totally worthless.

You can also sell it on Craigslist as long as you are VERY clear and honest about its' condition. Of course that's a last resort of your local police can't do anything to help.

Hi,

This is a weird Internet problem so I think this is the best place for this.

I have a 1Mbps broadband connection with a Modem+Router.

Now I get download speeds upto 120-130KBps on my PC (connected via LAN), my laptop (via Wifi) and my phone, the Galaxy S2 I9100 (via Wifi again) and my sister's Galaxy S3.

I get smooth surfing speeds with normal loading pages on my PC & Lappy.

The problem is that surfing speed on my and my sister's phone is extremely slow. Be it the Facebook app, Tapatalk app, normal pages in the Stock Browser, Opera Mini, anything.

Everything is slow as a snail.

No background downloads, cloud backups or any network hogging resources run in the background.

Both phones are stock, unrooted, untouched, JB 4.1.2, so no ROM troubles.

Does anyone have an idea as to what the problem might be?

Because it is really weird that download speeds are fine but surfing speeds suck so bad.

Also, if it might help, 3G works excellent on both devices.

And recently I factory resetted/formatted my phone, the S2.

[General Questions and Answers] Daniel120201:
Maybe your wireless connection is slow. Is there any downloading in background? Try disconnect one of your connected devices
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
That is a very slow connection.

But you need to troubleshoot it by first: make sure that you have a secure connection between your router and your devices.

So make sure your router is running wpa or wpa2 with a good key.

Next: you should disconnect each device and test network speeds to determine which device is the one causing the issue.

Then if that does nothing you should make sure that you are not too far from your router.

Because that would cause it to drop packets and slow down the transfer speed.
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
It might seem slow as per worldwide standards, but it actually is good enough to watch YouTube videos at 360p without buffering :p

Also this is a recent problem and before this everything worked absolutely well.

The security is set as WPA/WPA2.

I've tried sitting next to the router, doesn't make a difference.

I'll check connecting each device one at a time though.

[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
Hehe, thanks :p

Well I tried the individual connection as well. And the problem persists on both the S2 & S3.

The laptop works just fine. But the surfing on the phones is really bad! While surprisingly downloading or buffering a video is fine.

This is so weird!

I open the Youtube app and it opens slow as hell, loads thumbnails in years then I click a video it takes more time to load but then plays without a hiccup on HQ.. :confused:

Already tried sitting next to the router as well. No luck.
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
Next up is to try a different router or a neighbor's setup to determine if there is an issue with the antenna (or software) between your router and phones.
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
This will take some time since finding another router is tough around here.

I'll try to find another wifi to connect to.

If I make a wifi hotspot on the S3 and connect my S2 to it, will it be a suitable way to test?

Written by my Silver Axe
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
yep.

If it works fine then the router is the issue. (Ping tests)

If it doesn't work fine then you need another router to test.
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
Wifi is weird(it always has been) on all the samsung roms.

Like a user once reported that he sees constant transfer on his phone at his home network but not at work and he even used droidwall to block all connections. :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
I don't know about that. This problem has occurred only once before and lasted 2-4 days, then automatically resolved. This time it's been almost a week.

Apart from these 10 or so days, I have never had an issue with Wifi.

Also I tried browsing on a wifi hotspot by making S3 a hotspot and using on S2 and vice versa, both worked great.

So it's definitely some issue with the router. But I cannot call someone to replace it because my laptop works just perfect on it's wifi!

So maybe some settings have been altered or messed with?

I can get you some screenshots of the modem interface page that my network provider gives.

Google has just officially released the Google Now Launcher on the Play Store and made it compatible with all devices with Android v4.1 or Later, including Google Nexus devices and the Play Edition devices (Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 (2012), Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 10, Galaxy S4 GPe, HTC One GPe, Moto G GPe, Xperia Z Ultra GPe and the LG G Pad 8.3 GPe). You can Now Install directly from the Play Store which is easier to get future updates.

​

GNL Key Features :

Google Now on your home screen - it's easier than ever to get just the right information at just the right time.

Just say "Ok Google" - when you're on your home screen, just say "Ok Google" to trigger voice input. Then say your search query. Or tell your phone what to do, like send a text message, get directions, or play a song.

Faster search - tap the search box and you can enter your query immediately.

Easy access to your favorite Google products and services, like Gmail, YouTube, and Maps.

Larger viewing area - the status and navigation bars are now translucent, so your wallpaper pops from every pixel, and is even visible when you expand your apps drawer (when supported by device).

Intuitive wallpaper picker - select any image that's stored on your device, or in the cloud. Position and preview your wallpaper before you set it.

​

If your device is not supported, you can try the APK link below.

I honestly have no idea what they could have changed because the GoogleHome APK does next to nothing. All the code for the GEL is actually in the Google Search APK. All this GoogleHome.apk file does is provide a bridge to Google Search and give you the option of running the GEL. The reason the file is 12 MB is basically all the wallpapers that it includes. That's really it. I mean, obviously they changed *something*, but I'd be shocked if there were any performance improvements or bug fixes. Very strange indeed. Thanks for posting, nonetheless.

That is interesting. I wonder why it is working better for me. I will play for a day and see if it starts lagging like it did before. If not then the answer had to lie with a change in 4.4.1. Maybe a small code fix that improve performance. I will probably go back to another launcher anyway, but not until I test this well. Perhaps a framework tweak?
[Nexus 10 General] Archon810:
There's no code change. And even if there was, it'd only be to the invoker of the launcher code within search, which wouldn't do anything to speed up its actual operation.
