[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4CK_H0PP3R:
Hi ,

I have Nexus 7 2012 3G Model imported from USA whereas I stay in India,

I have done RMA recently , it was my 3rd time to go there, I had battery & motherboard issue this time, they changed my battery but not board but claimed that they did but i was smart to check data so when i checked my whole data was there so i got to know that they didn't changed it at all so again i give it there & told the issue,

Now problem is i am not facing any battery issue but its taking almost 8 hours to charge battery & giving 4.5 hrs on screen so i looked further so got to know that when motherboard changes it used to be IMEI also gets changes whereas i double checked with box & setting - status that my IMEI is same as before along with SSN ( sim serial number ),I seriously cant trust them whether they really changed my board or not, Is there anyway i can confirm with myself?

As i mentioned before it was my 3rd time for RMA , service is good as it does not takes time to do that like weeks but i cant trust them due to last incident & main problem is only 2 days remained to end my warranty, & this device gave me loads of issues till now, So Can anyone help me with this? I am ready to provide any details to look further.

Thanks in advance & Help will be Appreciated,

Try checking mac address that is hardware specific so if it is same then it is not changed. Btw imei is also hardware specific so i am sure it is not changed.

Hello

I wanted to know how's your G2 ?

I am thinking of buyingit but cant decide ..

Is it better than Nexus 5 ?

How you like it overall ?

thnk you
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnarfsan:
The LG G2 has a better camera and larger battery.

The Nexus 5 will get quicker updates.

There are still bugs in AOSP based ROMs for the LG G2.

I like my G2 and I wouldn't switch. But pick the one you want. That will be the best phone for you.

Btw. this thread will get closed because comparison threads are not allowed here.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capt_f0r3st:
Both are good phones, each of them is better for someone else. I would take nexus 5 because I had s4 before and g2 looks quite the same, software is similar to touchwiz, but runs a lot better I suppose. I have never used "smart" features of the s4 so I dont need them as they are present in g2's ui.

In summary I want some change so I would take n5.........only drawback is battery life, but I am used to charge every night. Camera - with 4.4.1 it gets better and also there are some mods around ;)

G2 makes nexus 5 seem like iPhone 4
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathshead:
Nexus 5 is the chumps cheapskate G2.

Way worse camera.

Way smaller battery

Way worse screen.

No IR blaster

LESS options as far as os/roms

As the g2,can run the LG optimus UI, AOSP roms or hybrids of both when the n5,just gets aosp only based roms, which personally i love the LG ui after being on vanilla android only for the past few years. It makes aosp seem "boring"

Lg optimus ui is lean and mean as well. Its light nice and snappy fast unlike the super heavy ui's such as toucwiz

Hi,

Using the latest CM11 nightly and found that when I receive an SMS it is showing the number but not associating it with the correctly configured contact, so not showing their name.

It's fine when I send a message to them and they reply but if I clear the messages and they send me a new one it just comes up as their number. This happens in both the CM Messaging app and Google Hangouts.

Has anyone else found this?

Thanks

Hello,

I must change the digitizer of my asus TF700T.

Hello, I would really appreciate urgent help, I can't use my phone... :)

Anyways, I was flashing Criskelo, was on 4.1.2 rooted. Flashed latest recovery, all ok, erased cahce, dalvik, factory reset all ok, rebooted in recovery, flash zip, aroma started, everything went well EXCEPT that when it rebooted - it just shows samsung galaxy noteII N7100 and NOTHING, screen remains black.

What should I do? Please don't post to restore via clockwork I only have Titanium backup :)

Thanx!!!!!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralex93:
looks like a bootloop i think

have you tried a wipe data/factory reset from recovery?

happened to me once, it worked for me
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:

there you have stock roms

if flashing with odin doesn't work, , try and flash a stock rom with a pit, and if neither of those work...well i dont know

when i got a bootloop (if this is a bootloop) on my old s2, flashing stock+pit brought the phone back to life

good luck
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
Thanx, downloading now... But, should I let it boot? Will this set the KNOX, if I flash it? :(

I have EFS backup, if that matters :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralex93:
download a 4.1.2 rom, so that way you won't have to worry about knox ;)

and knox, doesn't mess with the efs folder, what it does, is voiding your warranty, and a rom with knox, won't let you downgrade to a 4.1.2 rom for example, at least for the moment
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
Hmm, luckily I have a copy of N7100XXDME6_N7100DBTDME2_N7100XXDME4, will try that...

Could this problem be because of low disk space on internal storage? This is the only thing that comes to mind... I had like 2Gb free, and copied ROM which was like 1.4Gb....

OK managed to restore N7100XXDME6_N7100DBTDME2_N7100XXDME4, but still the question is why is Aroma failing?

Could it be internal disk space?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralex93:
i've installed roms with only 200mb of free space

so i don't think that that's your problem

as long as you did the wipes that Criskelo requieres, there's no problem with the space i think

Hi dudes,

My problem seems similar to Obstler's issue in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=35378&highlight=sound+problem

The problem: I can no longer hear any sound no matter what I do:

- clicking progs used to generate sounds. But no more...

- playing sound files just gives me silence

- a phone call generates a vibration as usual, but no more sound

- and when I pick up, I cannot hear the caller's voice

I tried:

- switching on/off bluetooth and speakerhone

- fiddling around with sound settings

- ending all active programs

Nothing seems to help. :cry:

My QTEK 9100 is one month old, has EXTrom 1.6.7.101 and is pretty much default (except for one lousy mahjongg game, but this one isn't the cause as it's been on for 2 weeks now.)

What I haven't tried yet; a soft reset. (I lack the doc here at the office but I think I need to do an ActiveSync at home first before resetting as I might lose some data right?)

Anyone had this? Anyone know what to do?

I'm quite new to PDA so I admit I wouldn't even know how to upgrade the bloody thing.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] p50kombi:

Try using your headphone plug, and plug it in several times(not to rough)

Sometimes the connection stays stuck in headphone....

It worked for me!!

Hi All,

i made a nandroid backup with CWM and i used the server function to download it to my PC, now im trying to restore it but no matter where i place on my ONE i cant get clockwork to recognise it.

Ive tried the SD card, mnt/shell ect... nothing seems to work

would anyone know what im doing wrong?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
what do you mean by "Zip Backup"? the backup is a folder called something like "2013-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss"

and that folder should be placed in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/

if it's a zip you downloaded off the net, then unzip it on your computer first, then push the folder to above location.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRadd:
Its recognised as a zip on my PC although it cant be unzipped with 7zip or WinRar. if you go to manage and restore back ups in rom manager it lets you download a folder to your pc, cannot for the life of me figure out how to push it back to the phone so it can be recognised though.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
1- what do you mean it can't be unzipped? where did you get it from

2- never used rom manager so no idea about that

3- use "adb push 2013-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/2013-mm-dd-hh.mm.ss" to get the backup onto phone

Any idea if Flashing E980 Modem is required ? or just flashing the V5 rom and following others steps will work ?

Or i have read that Data connections and Signal Reception doesn't work as Modem is not flashed
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
This is what I did.

Flashed G2V5 wipe data factory reset

Then reboot. You will have to add your AT$T APN I use the phone apn,, also make sure your service is set to LTE auto

If you get good service IE LTE full bars and what not. Then u are good. No need to try flashing modem.

If your service isn't good then try flashing your modem. Personaly I haven't seen my modem actually change after flashing.

You can verify this yourself. After installing V5 go into setting General about software info and check your baseband version,,, then flash a different modem and check again. I'm my experience it never changes.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] symbal:
Hi there,

I recently bought the wonderful Samsung Note 10.1 2014 and am looking to add loop device support to the kernel for the sake of booting *nix using the good old VLC trick. Even though I'm a software engineer and no stranger to Linux (or fstab), I'm very green when it comes to Android development.

When trying to run the bootup script, I recieve "mknod /dev/block/loop255 b 7 0". I.E my kernel doesn't support loopback devices.

I have extracted the kernel contents (ramdisk and init img) but was wondering whether anyone can give me a shove in the right direction when it comes to setting up the device.

So far, after a brief investigation, I have found the fstab.goldfish file which strikes me as looking just as I'd expect to see it on a normal box. Can anyone provide a quick shove in the right direction for knowledge (preferred) or even has a snippet from an existing unpacked kernel I may "borrow", Google was not my friend in such pursuit.

--Edit--

Looking through the build.prop, would simply disabling selinux give root permission to create a loop device? This again boils down to my warped inherent knowledge of Linux in general, sorry if it seems a poor question.

--Update--

I guess if the kernel wasn't compiled with support (as it appears it wasn't) there is no hope of modifying the stock ROM to achieve my goal? On the Samsung OSC, they have SM-P605_HK SM-P605_HK_JB_Opensource.zip so, I'm taking a look in there and will keep you posted just in case anyone is the least bit interested.

--Resolution--

I guess this thread can be ignored now, I'm pulling the config from my tablet, changing the kernel compile config and will test it out tomorrow. If in doubt, compile :)

I believe "CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP" is the config option you are looking for.

I've been struggling with ADB for the past week or so, and have been unable to see my HTC One X+ no matter what I've tried. Then I decided to install Ubuntu using VirtualBox and voila, It can see my device using the same computer with no problem. I ran an ADB restart just to make sure and it worked. Can anyone tell me why this is and hopefully tell me how to fix it?

This all started when I tried to run an RUU and it couldn't find my phone. RUU's don't run on Linux, so this doesn't solve my problem, just seems to point at Win7 being the issue.

P.S. I've had 5 Android devices, all 5 have successfully connected with ADB on this same computer in the past. I've installed custom ROMs on all of them and have used ADB quite a bit over the past few years. I'm not sure what changed in the past year since I last used ADB that now causes it to not see my device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 911jason:
Just noticed that I can see the phone in the bootloader using "fastboot devices"... even more confused now!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Well you only need fastboot for an ruu so your good there, maybe you need to setup a path in environmental variables for adb or uninstall and reinstall drivers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 911jason:
The path is already there, the commands work, just no device to send them to. Already tried uninstalling/reinstalling drivers and the Android SDK.

Not sure how I can use fastboot for the RUU though... I've tried running it from the Windows desktop and it can't find the device. I did try running it while in the bootloader and it starts the process but always fails within about 3 minutes with an Unknown Error.
