[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] od1235:
I recently received the GPE G Pad and one thing I've noticed is the vibration is barely noticeable. Can anyone else comment on the vibration intensity they've experienced? I'm just worried I have a faulty motor because it took me a bit to even notice it was vibrating.

Is there a way to test the motor and/or adjust intensity?

Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuraeL:
Don't worry. It's normal. My tablet has it as well. And to reassure you even more.. My LG Optimus G phone has the same. However that one I have tweaked to vibrate more aggressive. I just forgot how I did it. :/ But I reckon you can do the same on the G Pad. It's not faulty, LG just sets the vibration to pretty low..

Ok guys I know there are other threads about howbto get this phone to work on carriers like tmobile and att but I can't seem to get anything to work. I am rooted and fairly certain my bootloader is unlocked because I'm running a custom rom but nothing seems to work the most that I've gotten is under settings it shows my phone number but I can't get calls or signal or anything with any carrier. Is it that my carrier isnt unlocked ? I have mynphone set to global and hage tried gsm and nothing and tried apns and nothingg. The only thing I havent been able to test is the hidden menus trick and that's cuz I cant find a rom that has the options for all the steps plz help guys I really wanna at least make calls.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister_evil:
Hello, I originally posted this on r/androidquestions on reddit but received no responses in well over a couple of months. Thought I'd try my luck here even though I never get replies. ;p

I got this weird issue on all my devices where after a certain point the video freezes, buffers for ~8 seconds, plays for a couple and repeat. This is not video specific and changing the quality does not fix this, it just makes the problem appear later on. In HQ quality, after about 1:45 minutes of playing flawlessly it starts buffering the whole damn time. SQ quality can play up to 3-4 minutes before any issues arise.

This is on a broad range of devices, both mine and those of friends. My own Samsung Galaxy S2 running CM10.1 and Cube U30GT running CM10, but had the issue on stock, and a stock Galaxy Note and HTC Hero 2.

Other info. It's not network related. Happens on both wifi and 3g and on different connections/ISPs. My own Internet connection clocks up to 20mbps and has no problem playing any YT video on my PC. Other "streaming" video stuff work great. Twitch.tv plays great as does dailymotion. Other players, other than the default YT app, have no issues playing videos even on HQ. YT through the browser works fine but somehow doesn't let me switch to HQ and the "UI" generally feels bad. Feedly (which is great btw), has a sort of plugin that uses the YT app to play videos natively. Any videos played in the feedly app, using this "plugin" play great even in HQ, which is weird. I've tried reinstalling, uninstalling, stalling, killing, maiming, clearing data+cache, completely wiping the devices and sacrificing firstborns to Lucifer.

This feels like a caching issue of the youtube app. It feels like it starts caching up to a point (playing great in the process) and at some points cache fills up and starts deleting in order to make space to cache further. That leads to the pause and buffering of the video.

Has anyone else experienced issues like this and has managed to fix them? Does anyone techsavvy enough know if it's indeed a cache issue and how to bypass it?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glenthompson:
Isn't news. YouTube app sucks. I have an iPhone and frequent Apple forums quite often and its preferred to use the YouTube web app or 3rd party app over the actual app. Just getting throttled. My biggest gripe with Androids YouTube app is there is no way for it to use SD as the default resolution.

I just tried the WiFi optimization with no effect. If I wait a couple hours it will stream HD no problem once network traffic slows down. I have a 30 mbs home connection which I can get those speeds easily, usually much higher, but not to a YouTube server between 3pm - 11pm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] The Arbiter:
Ok so I never messed around with rooting until my phone got the 4.3 update the other night. I decided I hated the update so much that I did the saferoot method, and I'm now rooted.

Only after I did that did I discover that my bootloader is perma-locked and I can't try to unroot or rollback the android version or I'll hardbrick. I can't do roms. Essentially I can't fix what I rooted in order to fix, and trying to enter recovery mode and odin mode lights me up with a verizon warning. So:

1. Just what can I do SAFELY now that I'm rooted? I've already used titanium to uninstall the verizon apps, but I don't know what I'm doing beyond that to remove bloatware/make this thing faster.

2. Will there be a time in the future when I'll be able to totally unlock my phone and escape Verizon's tyranny even though I took the 4.3 OTA? I want to make it look like stock nexus android.

Thanks for any and all help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
1. That's about it. Maybe use Xposed and the Greenify module to hibernate apps that typically drain your battery. Can't do much more besides remove apps on TW 4.3.

2. Possibly or possibly never. Nobody knows if the Knox Bootloader and extra security checks put forth by Verizon will be overcome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] roaddog665:
I use Greenify to hibernate apps I sometimes use and titanium backup to freeze apps I never use. I don't uninstall them just in case. It's running great for me, much better than 4.1.2

I know you can't downgrade from 4.3, but you can't unroot either?

[Moto X Q&A] sd0070:
Rooted (stock) VZW moto x

A couple days ago my phone app started force closing immediately upon opening it every time. It doesn't work at all now. I am rooted, but I rooted weeks ago and this just started yesterday or the day before. I haven't messed with anything. The only thing that I have done is download apps from the play store... None of which 'should' mess with the phone app.

I have since downloaded an alternative dialer app which works, but I'd rather use stock. I tried rebooting, tried clearing the app's cache and data (in system settings - apps) and no luck.

Any help would be great. Either finding/fixing the issue or a way to reinstall the stock phone app? I am rooted and I believe write protection is off, which I had to do to install busybox. Thanks!

[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
What version are you on. 4.2.2 or 4.4

There is a couple things i would try i have had to do it with other phone specially my old S3

1. restore from a backup when i the dialer was not FC

2. try reinstalling the dialer from the APK located here device/system/prvi-app/dialer.apk

3. pull the dialer.apk out of the correct stock ROM or recover img and replace the one located in the above folder and install it.

but to be honest option one is normally the best way to go and the fastest.
[Moto X Q&A] sd0070:
Thanks. I'm on 4.4. I'm going to try option 2 when i get home. I'm not exactly sure how to restore a backup on this phone yet being that i dont really have a recovery.

[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
let me get you the .apk from the restore img give me about a hour to download it and get you a link

also do you know how to use titanium backup if so i would install it and back up all user apps and data because you might have to do a factory reset. but if you backup with TB you and restore everything right back to ware you was

What the best ROM in relation to my preferences?

-Battery Life

-Performance

-0 Bloatware

-Smooth

-No Blinkfeed
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
Really, these threads shouldn't exist. There is no "best rom" because it depends on personal preference. BlinkFeed is capable of being disabled on any 4.3+ (sense 5.5 i think) stock rom. Because I'm in a good mood, I would recommend any of the following based on your preferences:

Stock with Goodies by flex360

RageOne by utkaar099

so here i go

i have just received my jasjar from SBE after them having it for over two month (complete morons over there dont EVER use then unless you are obliged to). got it back, worked fine for a week and now, it will ONLY log on to UMTS networks for example im sitting at home i have a U symbol and 2 bars signal strength. I go into phone settings and select GSM instead of auto and it stays searching for 10 minutes then says no signal, i can get it to join the network if i select manually my network but i can then make no calls or texts or log on to the gprs network. i am using pocket phone thingy for the today screen. and here comes the wierd part. when im out of signal in a non umts area the today screen plug in reports a signal strength ie 63% and above it it states attempting voice connection. and HERE THE REALLY WEIRD PART. i still receive my cell broadcasts when out of gsm signal. ie its searching and ill get a 'text' saying 0208, 01829 .

Please help and dont tell me i have to send it back to the idiots at SBE
[Online Courses, Schools, and Other External Resour] haxxo:
So i just finished reading Head first java 2nd edition. and before i move on to android, i would like to make some simple java apps to get some actual experience.

can someone direct me to some exercises/tutorials that actually build an app step by step, with clear documentation? these apps should not heavily use swing/awt .

at the moment i just dived into creating a Cesar cipher APP(only command line), its very painful to just jump into app making straight after reading a book. by painful i mean very slow with lots of googling. so that's why i would like some exercises/tutorials but there are thousands online, very hard to know what good for me without wasting a lot of time.

I want some java exercises/tutorials that do NOT focus heavily on Swing/AWT, with clear directions/documentation.

[Motorola Droid X2] eqouh:
I'm using a Rooted Droid X2, Android Version 2.3.5, Running the Eclipse Rom v2.3.

The problem I'm running into is that my camera will not work.

At times, I cannot open the camera at all, receiving the message that the camera cannot initialize. Other times, I can open the App, but everything is black, as in the camera isn't on. When I try to take a picture, the flash will just turn on and stay on, and the phone will freeze and I have to restart. I can access settings sometimes, but often the application will freeze and close, saying that the process com.motorola.camera has stopped working. I've done battery pulls, power cycling, and cleared the cache partition. I've spent days searching for other similar threads, related posts, and just plain old googling. My Droid X2 is one of those funky ones that doesn't like safemode, so I can't try that, but I've deleted virtually all of my apps. I downloaded the App called "z-device test," and it says that it can see my camera, and flash, so I'm lead to believe that I have a software problem.

What should I do?

I'm a bit of a noob, so laymen terms would be appreciated. Any and all help is also appreciated in advance! (If anyone is still behind the curve as far as I am, and even notices this post)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] senuod:
So I am very new to rooting, but after reading through the XDA threads for about a year, I finally took the leap. Last week, I rooted my device using Framaroot. I flashed my device with Omnirom 4.4 nightly (20131203-i777-NIGHTLY) and PA-Gapps 20131215. Everything was working very well except for some battery drain. I decided to flash the newest Omnirom nightly in the hope that some of my issues would be addressed. Flashed Omnirom 20131230-i777-NIGHTLY via an OTA. That flash worked very well, except Google Play services was not working aka it would not allow me to sign into any of my google apps. I tried flashing the newest PA Gapps, that didn't fix the issues. Tried reflashing Omnirom and Gapps, that didn't work. Tried wiping my device and then restoring the ROM to a previous backup. Restoring to any of my previous backups failed continually, so I tried reflashing earlier builds of Omnirom. Several times that did not work, until now. Right now, I was able to flash Omnirom 20131203 with Gapps 20131215. My device will boot and google apps are running, but now I have no home screens...at all.

I'm hoping I might just be able to sideload the google experience launcher and that would fix this issue. I've been messing with my phone all day and decided to ask the experts on this sight for help before I did any further damage.

Thanks for you help and forgive my lack of knowledge...Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cyril279:
You're very close, but I'm not sure that it's worth trying to treat the symptoms (sideloading, reflashing, etc). It's easier to start clean. Once you are assured that you are using a compatible kernel/recovery, please follow all of the steps under the "initial installation" header of the OmniRom OP. The installation is easy and very straight forward.

if you prefer to avoid using mr-cook's script, then you can substitute it by wiping:

both caches

/data

/system

/preload

edit: Wiping /system is necessary. A factoy reset is NOT enough to guarantee a clean start.

Survival scripts are stored at /system/addon.d, which are honored by the omnirom install script. The only way to truly start clean is to wipe /system.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] senuod:
I was able to restore my phone to a point before I flashed any ROMS using CWM recovery. Only issue with that is storage has been eaten up and some apps that were on my sd card aren't working well. I'll take those steps to properly flash OmniRom again in 2014.

You could use Mobile Odin but for a "true" factory restore you would need to do it from your desktop.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rwilco12:
You are correct. But this is a factory restore for those instances where someone needs to restore their device to 100% stock with the Knox bootloader. In most cases the carrier and manufacturer will not look at a device that isn't 100% stock. Some carriers also offer trade-in/upgrade programs but they require the phone to be stock to qualify. That's what this is for. :)
