[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Cat McGowan:
I have been using the AdAway app continuously since Google decided to eliminate all ad blocking apps from its Play Store and from my experience, AdAway does not require an unlocked boot loader to work, it only requires root access, and AdAway has no problem installing a hosts file in the /system/etc directory, so I am curious about why you have to go through all that.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Havoc2k:
The problem is, that if you using vroot like i did, and you doing nothing else, you don't have read write access to /system. So adaway, adfree and whatever can't edit the hosts file. Therefore is my little mod to get it done manually :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Rootk1t:
after vroot, install SuperSU and then all app ad-blocking apps are working good.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Havoc2k:
nope sorry, i did it, installed vroot, switched to normal superSU and installed busybox. But there is no RW access, so the ad blocking apps will work, but only to the next systemreboot / userswitch

tried all of them, and tried to manually edit the host file, but without access it will not happen

greetings
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Rootk1t:
strange thing that with root there is no RW access.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Cat McGowan:
I have tested and have for several months ran AdAway on my XTZ, on which Vroot was used to gain root access and SuperSU is installed, and AdAway has no problem writing a hosts file to the /system/etc directory even though the permissions for the /system and /system/etc directories are set to read-only. So, because I have no problem with AdAway and you apparently have a problem with AdAway, I believe it is likely there is a flaw in your root access setup. But hey, I could be wrong.

Hi, i have the new rom installed and an exchange 2003 server running sp2. Where can i get information on how to set up the push email? :?

Does it work on the new rom properly?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Sembee:
The setup is very simple.

Configure Exchange Active Sync as normal and confirm that it works.

Then change the schedule to "As Items Arrive".

The push part is enabled in the Communications Manager - it is the icon with the envelope and an arrow pointing towards inwards.

However I haven't yet worked out how to get it to work without a cellular connection. ActiveSync throws and error if you don't have the mobile part turned on.

Simon.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] brosen:
I did activate the Microsoft DirectPush nonetheless the

Does not arrive to the Handheld, and I checked in the server ( via OWA ) and there are many new emails, please help, thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Sembee:
Does regular Exchange Active Sync work?

If you go in to Active Sync on the handheld and press Sync, do you get the new email messages?

If not, then push will not work either.

If it does - then it only pushes new messages as they arrive - not messages that were already there.

Simon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mester84:
Hi,

I would like some help, if anybody has some minutes to reply It would be great :)

I updated my phone with KitKat and when I finished it didn't want to boot in. It took me back to CWM. Well I format the SD and the phone too. So now if I turn it on it stops at the Google logo at the begining. I have an adb sideload menu in CWM. MY question is that how can I put any zip files on my phone e.g. android 4.3 becouse my notebook doesn't see anymore my phone. Is there any way to push up a zip file on it?

Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
First I would recommend plugging in your Galaxy Nexus to your computer and when it shows up in Device Manager, install the attached Google USB Drivers. After you install the drivers your phone should hopefully be recognized, and you can then push another ROM .zip file to your device. Let me know if you still have questions.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] fufixiil:
I have Motorola Droid Razr XT910 and by RSD I did an update from ICS 4.0.4. to JB 4.1.2. and I decided I want to go back to GB 2.3.5. or 2.3.6. because of the battery life, what is now on JB really short, but I failed of course, so I'm stuck in AP Fastboot mode every time I want to turn my phone on, It will show me this:

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Recipe Failure)
0A.77
eMMC Info: Size 16G
To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

And phone is stuck in it, so I need to turn it off, and then power button + vol up + vol down and go through the normal powerup. I have tried another JellyBeans but the problem is in bootloader. I saw here on xda one post telling me I have to flash the radio - I did that about 100 times and I failed... I flashed radio (empty radio) and then in recovery did a wipe data and cache - when i go to recovery after flashing radio, phone will start loading something, maybe the radio, BUT! When it's done, phone will again show me recipe failure...I think I need to unlock bootloader to do a full wipe data and everything, and again start from over. I saw about milion posts here about this problem but with no result... Someone please help me :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
You can't unlock bootloader,unfortunately no one can.

Did you try to flash JB with RSD Lite again?

Sent from my Razr XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fufixiil:
Yes, I did. I tried to first delete cache and everything and then flash new JB, or just flash it, or flash and then delete cache and data.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
What do you mean "delete cache"?

Here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2231289 are the JB Fastboot files

Here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42057363/RSDLite_v6.1.x.zip is RSD Lite 6.1.5

Here https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481/action/auth are the Motorola drivers

Install drivers,install RSD Lite

Start RSD Lite,click on 3 dots next to empty bar,find JB Fastboot file that you downloaded,click open and then "decompress only"

When program finish that,shut the phone off,press vol- vol+ and power button,choose AP Fastboot,connect the phone with usb cable to the computer,wait a program to recognize the phone and then press start in RSD Lite.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rmjones2006:
I also have the recipe failure and have tried all of these steps (and many others) to try and fix the "recipe failure" at boot.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datsyuk:
Sitting next to my sister in the car and noticed her S4 has full bars meanwhile my G2 has 1 and has 1x for data and she has a strong connection to LTE. I checked status and idk which relates to service but my dBm was 110 while hers was in the 90s and my asu was 1 and hers was 45. My service has been pretty terrible everywhere. I am running green devils latest CM nightly and I believe I flashed the latest radio in the development thread. Please help! Can't even send MMS in my house because not only is my house get bad service but my phone has really been doing a bad job getting good reception. Wondering if anyone knows what's up.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datsyuk:
Sorry obviously same network
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
well you would be amazed what people ask. I have learned if user doesnt state it he hasnt though about it. How obvious it may seem ;)

Maybe bad antenna. Also check which mode you have set for network, gsm,2g etc.

also note that some phones show levels differently, their multiple bars could be same as yours.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datsyuk:
Must be something strange, I set the mobile network to LTE (recommended) and it's weird I've been trying out different modems too flashing those, the phone will boot up and have LTE, then it will disappear after a minute or so and I will literally never see LTE again where my town I have LTE EVERYWHERE.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
yeah that sounds like the low reception bug some people have been talking about.

you try disabling fast dormancy. See if it works, might end up using more power though. Also try disabling the power saving option. Lte is less battery friendly so phone could be forcing itself to lower power mode when not using data. you should see it come back the moment you use data, if thats it.

Also check if ypur apn settings are correct.

Also check your provider. They might be limiting you on their end.

I think it will depend on the distance between the usb port and the back rest on the dock. It would need to be the right size so that the whole note 10.1 doesn't rest solely on the micro usb port or pull it a bit to rest on the back

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daeymon:
So the context of my question. I have purchased a great many indie bundles over the year, Indie Gala, Groupees, Humble Bundle and now iKoid. Through these bundles I obtained quite a healthy selection of games across several platforms, including for many titles Android. Anyways I'm getting an Android gaming tablet for Christmas and was compiling up my selection getting an idea of what I have.

But upon closer inspection, some of the apk's provided by these providers are out of date. Now the bundle provider relies on the developer to update them, they don't chase, so if the developer forgets to send updated versions to the bundle providers then the only way to get it updated is for the end user (me) to notice and chase the bundle provider; who in turn will chase the developer. But my collection is big now and will only grow and keeping tabs on whether my version matches the market is going to be a pain.

So the question, is there an app that can compare my currently installed apk versions to the ones on the marketplace? I know I cannot update through the marketplace as they are paid apps that I've purchased by means other than Google, but utilising it as an indicator my apps are out of date would be very useful to me. I've done a hefty amount of searching and found nothing so if it doesn't exist then so be it, thought I'd at least ask before forsaking the possibility.

Hi everybody...

Have u heard about Smart N' Loud?

Smart N' Loud is a smart ringer - with this app you can customize your phone incoming call settings per contact and "override" its default settings.

Choose to which contacts you want to stay available!

Main features:

- define custom behavior (ring, vibrate, silent) per contact

- define custom behavior for "blocked numbers"

- define when you want the "override" to occur - choose number of calls in a certain period of time!

- when the phone goes to silent/vibrate --> the app will ask you to choose whether to activate your custom selections or not!

This app is very simple and easy to use!

All you have to do is download from here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eyalse.smartandloud

search for your favorite contacts, choose a phone number if the contact has more than one, and define your custom settings.

Check out this YouTube video for short demo (old version):
