[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] roboorw:
Hi, i have some problems with my Xperia T. I want to install AOPK software based on this tutorial /2013/07/26/update-xperia-t-lt30p-cm101-android-422-jelly-bean-custom-rom/2/ . In Step 10 i had ERROR 7, so i turn off my phone and want to turn on but now i have repeated bootloop on SONY logo. What can i do to repair my phone?

Step 10: Now select “choose zip from sdcard”. Using your volume keys, navigate to the Android 4.2.2 ROM zip file that you copied to your SD card and select it using the Power button. Confirm the installation on the next screen and the installation procedure should start now.

I try to do flash mode, but PC don't see my phone :/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
Hold volume down while plugging the phone in and it should be in flash mode. Then open flashtool and press the flash icon then press flash mode then flash the ftf for your phone
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] roboorw:
I know, but it don't work :/ ; i dont have any LED color and pc don't see phone.

//HARD reset solve the problem?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] roboorw:
hmmm i do HARD restes and i now have bootloop too, i don't know what i can do.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
I / O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request. Just try to flash again with different usb cable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilogik:
Are you switching to another device in January?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnny crapple:
Idk I'm thinking of paying off this phone and going prepaid, I'm not sure though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MrPapito429:
I'm gonna switch in February. Im probably going to try either the iPhone or the nexus 5. I need suggestions though please.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] johnny crapple:
Just play with both and see what you like better. Personally I like to use android so I would go with the nexus 5 out of those two.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoboBrazil:
Wait till March and get the Galaxy S5. That lines you up perfectly for the new phone in the fall, whether thats a nicer android or the new Iphone. To get the most out of this program you have to line it up perfectly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shortbus-Driver:
You mean theres something better? Worthy of throwing 6 months worth of payments down the drain for?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilogik:
What about the new note? If you're into that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Just remember, the Galaxy S5 will be either 4.3 or 4.4 which means Knox

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bowmanspeer:
Because of knox I most likely look at LG or something else. I have exactly 4 weeks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoboBrazil:
Yeah, but it's going to have a 2560x1440p screen. So tempting, but I don't want to support something like Knox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] guerrillastyle:
If I'm looking to upgrade to the N5 using the Jump program do I have to unroot my S4 to stock for the trade in…does anyone know…?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoboBrazil:
You always want to unroot and flash a device back to stock before taking it back to T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ronin4740:
If the nexus line had replaceable batteries and an sd card slot I'd pick one up. As they don't i foresee migrating to the S5 sometime after it's released.

There's nothing right now that makes me want to dump my S4...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] vvveith:
Not a big deal.

Everyone is so up in arms about KNOX, it really is no big deal, if you don't use it, it won't bother you, and if you are savvy, you can get around it. KNOX is needed for many corporations that allow sensitive information to be used on employee's mobile devices. Otherwise if you work in such a company and use any of your own devices and something goes wrong you have to sign a weaver that the company can and will confiscate your device, whether you paid for it or not! Yes, I'm lining up for the next galaxy because every device I have gotten from Samsung has been fast and snappy and very cool. I like being able to replace the batteries and also add different SD cards. SO many companies have removed that ability that it is a shame.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilogik:
Didn't the GS3 get delayed till like June? I bet there will be delays with S5 because of the new display they will "supposedly" use, so if you change your phone now it will line up with a probable June/July release of the S5.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Knox IS a big deal for people who care about their warranty. You cannot (as of today) root without tripping Knox.

There too many "opinions" as to what Knox is for. Some say it won't get checked on warranty exchanges etc. How do you know?

Bottle line, you don't care about warranty, then root a S5 when ya get it .

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xda23:
I don't waste my money on jump and I keep my old devices because I always get what I paid for them or more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Sunchips:
I actually just checked on this today. T-mobile employees aren't even trained to check for the Knox fuse, and some don't even know what it is. They told me as long as the phone boots up and is usable it wont be a problem if there is no damage to the device. This information is provided by a manager. However this person did say they trade in rooted phones all the time, so I am better off bringing my Knox blown device into the store rather than doing the exchange by phone/mail.

Of course this is all subject to change at any point if T-mobile decides to instruct their employees to check for Knox. But as of the writing of this message, you're good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] peeps67:
I would like to wait and see what the Galaxy s5 looks like. Hoping for a metal body. I wish they would get rid of the home button. LG and HTC are also putting out some nice hardware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jggonzalez:
This thread needs a poll! I plan to wait for either S5 or Note 4.
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
Ok so i have been playing with my Moto X for some time now and i have learned a lot about it but as i have been going threw the Q&A and general sections helping out i have read a lot of mixed information

1. unlocking the boot loader.

i have been to Motorola's website and checked for all devices and they give you a complete walk-threw on how to unlock your bootloader for all devices. but i have read in some threads that you can't do it on all devices. so i guess my question is. Is it tru that some carrier devices do not allow you to unlock the bootloader and if so what carries dont allow and what one's do allow.

2. my Sprint Moto X has had a unlocked bootloader from day one. so people who do not have there bootloader unlocked are they still able to use the 4.4 slapmymoto root process.

i am sorry for the questions but i need straight answers because i would like to help anyone who has issues but i don't want to give wrong info and after reading some many post i feel i might have made some mistakes in some of my attempts to help people
[Moto X Q&A] fury683:
It is my understanding that AT&T and Verizon devices cannot unlock the bootloader through the Motorola website.

I have a Verizon Moto X (MotoMaker edition). The bootloader is locked. I used SlapMyMoto 0.5c to gain root on 4.4.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
developer edition models for verizon and att/gsm can unlock bootloaders. if it is a dev edition and the bootloader is unlocked you also void your warranty. locked BLs can still be rooted with slapmymoto. that is the only purpose of slapmymoto. if you have an unlocked BL then you would just flash twrp then the superSU.zip (or other SU app of your choice) and have root in minutes.
[Moto X Q&A] frenchie007:
I do believe Motorola changed their policies concerning developer editions. Unlocking the boot loader no longer voids warranty on those devices
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
ya my bad. i meant isn't. glad you corrected it though because that could have been confusing for someone.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
1. Yes. Retail VZW and ATT moto Xs will, most likely, never have their bootloaders unlocked. Those are the only 2 variants whose bootloaders can't be unlocked. Only Dev edition retain warranty after a bootloader unlock. Simply requesting an unlock code voids your warranty.

2. Yes but you'd be wasting your time. Download your choice of recovery (TWRP or CWMR) and root app (SuperSU or Superuser), flash the recovery, reboot into recovery, flash whateveryourrootappis.zip, reboot system, enjoy root.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] moisesmcardona:
Hello,

Today I got my Samsung Smart Dock which is working as supposed with my Note 3. My issue is that in a TV, it will display correctly at the TV native resolution, but in my monitor (I-INC iP221) it will display as 640x480 60Hz. The monitor is capable of displaying at 1080p since I use it with my PC. I would like to know if there is a way I can force 1080p to the monitor. I would like to use my Note 3 as a Desktop Replacement for office things, web browsing and media playback.

I have tried several HDMI to DVI adapters I have and I also used an HDMI to DVI cable I also own and it still displays at 640x480 resolution...

My Note 3 is stock ROM and is rooted.

Thanks for all the help you guys can offer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] moisesmcardona:
I already tried using the command

echo U:1920x1080p-2 > /sys/class/graphics/fb1/mode

the modes file shows:

U:640x480p-0

U:1920x1080p-2

but the 1920x1080p-2 mode only keeps the screen black until I disconnect and connect the monitor again where it defaults to 640x480 mode
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] martin g:
Hello I have the same issue with galaxy s3 and s4 when i connect to my hdtv directly to hdmi I get 1080P. But when I use my hdmi to dvi adapter I only get 480p. Have you found a solution?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwgti18:
Has anyone heard of it? I know they are a sister company to att and they use their towers. But I have a sprint Nexus 5 if I switch and put their sim in my phone will it work?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BirchBarlow:
AIO is AT&T's prepaid subsidiary and yes it will work. All Nexus 5's are the same no matter where you purchased them from. There is no carrier branding or carrier locking on the N5. From what I hear, AT&T severly throttles date for AIO customers, so if data speed is important, you might want to consider T-Mobile prepaid or StraightTalk.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johmama:
I use it now. As you probably know, they have a $40, $55, and a $70 plan, with data amounts of 250MB, 2GB, and 7GB, respectively. You get throttled to 2G after you hit your soft cap. Unlimited texts and minutes are included in all plans.

I've had it for 4 months now and can't complain. Their service in my area is good, and the speeds are up to snuff what what I need at least. The most data-intensive thing I do is stream "High quality" music from Pandora One, and it does that without a hitch. Can't comment on streaming video because I never do. One thing to keep in mind though, they cap your data speeds even before hitting you soft-cap. From their website:

So no matter what, the fastest download speeds you can get is up to 4Mbps on HSPA+ and 8Mbps on LTE. Again, if that affects you then that's something to consider. It is good enough for me though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m52 power!:
I've used their $70 plan now for 2 months on the N5. It works fine except for at work. It's known at my work that att frequency is blocked by the buildings structure (metal walls, ceiling and metallic tinted windows) so I literally have 2 bars outside and zero signal inside. I will be switching to T-Mobile because of this. If it weren't for that I'd definitely stay.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwgti18:
Cool thanks for all the help. I might be getting a job at an Aio store and they have an employee plan $55 for 5gb so I was thinking if I get the job I might switch cuz sprint sucks haha
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BirchBarlow:
Heh I didn't know they even had brick and mortar Aio stores...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bekyndnunwind:
I switched from Verizon (had unlimited data) to AIO and have been enjoying it for 3 months now with no issues. Speeds are fast and I love it. I'm on the $55 a month plan.

I should tell you though that ATT is about to roll AIO into the Cricket brand. ATT owns Cricket now and it will be nationwide LTE just like AIO (if it's not already).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcloadletter1:
I have the $55 plan and service has been great, LTE at home, work and the commute. Streaming music and tethering works fine. Customer service has also been great as they helped me with the APN settings, which should be posted on their website, but are not. Some negatives are the slow ping on speed tests, a few second delay for the connection on phone calls and the Cricket factor.

Sprint and T-mobile signals are non-existent at work, so my options were limited.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdapimp:
what's the speed of the throttle
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amsgh:
I just got off phone and online chat with AIO customer service... It is the worst, they couldn't get mms to work on my Note 2 and made me power cycle thinking it would work. I am done and want to warn everyone I can.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jss2:
I considered the $55 AIO plan when I got my nexus 5, but ultimately went with the $60 AT&T GoPhone plan instead. Same amount of data, essentially the same price, same AT&T network, and no throttling of speeds.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] METDeath:
I too have AIO, after finding out they don't allow VPN on cellular data I'm probably going to switch to AT&T Go Phone after I get my free month unless one of the other "unlimited" prepaid carriers that uses AT&T towers supports VPN usage. I don't often go over the 2GB amount, but I did about 1/3 of the time on VZW with unlimited, part of that was tethering due to slow hotel internet and stupidly fast LTE and unlimited data. So guess I'll put in chat sessions with tech support to find out if VPN is supported over cellular data before I commit.

Also, going to chime in and mention that it took me about 10 minutes of back and forth with tech support on the phone to get them to understand what my problem was. Also, setting up SMS was slightly annoying as they didn't tell me the exact correct thing to put into the phone. However, I simply had to click "Refresh" then "Update" for the SMSC(?) number to self populate and then work fine. Prior to that I had MMS working fine both ways (after inputting the APN settings from around the web and now their site).

I'd consider T-mo but I go to many rural areas where they simply don't have coverage for work and would like to be able to stay in touch.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
Have you found any that will allow VPN? I'm on Straight talk ATT currently and it does not allow VPN either.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OMGBEES:
I cannot speak to what AIO's actual policy is on VPN traffic but I can say that I've been on their network for almost 2 months now and have had no issues using VPNs. Perhaps they just have not caught it yet but so far so good. YMMV.

Edit: So I've been looking through their terms and can't find anything specifically mentioning VPNs or tunnels but they do have some pretty standard clauses about only using your data connection for approved activities. This certainly gives them the right to block types of traffic they don't approve of but it doesn't mean they are actively policing it either. Would love to find a more solid answer on this.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] METDeath:
Well, the one rep I spoke to on the phone said they didn't allow it. I will try talking to a chat tech when I'm home again and can test it. I know I have the VPN working because I can connect over Wi-Fi (not at home) and it works perfectly. I've tried to connect over cellular at home, and on the road, never worked. I've got all the APN settings correct and SMS working, so I don't believe it to be a configuration issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsmith5:
Hello,

Not sure if its due to the recent updates, but several issues are happening with playing music on my S4 and using the Galaxy Gear media controller:

The music player keeps crashing.

When I plug in the ear phone to listen to music, sometimes, but not always, the music starts playing like it should.

The media controller on the galaxy gear somtimes, but not always controls the music.

There are 2 built in music players I've used, in addition to using Android free music player and the free rocket player. All the above issues happen with them.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

My phone and watch are rooted. My phone has sacs rom and the watch just has the NIN recovery console.

Is there any current way to perform this kind of tweak for the Wizard? I've just spent 20 mins searching but couldn't find anything related :(

Cheers!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ZeBoxx:
nope :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] blackobsidian:
I have to say, despite it's nice design I'm really starting to get irritated with my Vario now... The processor is uber-slow compared to all other HTC devices, it's not tweakable anywhere near the amount the others are, it has an OMAP processor and thus won't be possible to run Linux etc on it.

I think even after 2 months it's time to look at a new device :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ZeBoxx:
That's bull**** - the first (?) Linux smartphone from imcosys runs the TI OMAP 730 with embedded Linux;

http://www.imcosys.com/html/technische_daten.html

It's just a matter of people actually doing the work to port the O/S. Personally I think people who want to run Linux on Device X should just get Device Y which runs it natively - less work, and you support a company that already readily supports Linux on Device X-alikes.

As far as CPU-speed goes, it appears to vary per-reviewer. Some say it's slower, others say it's faster. I guess it'll depend on what you're doing with it.

Not sure what you mean with regards to 'tweakable', though. The only 'tweak' I'm readily aware of that works on e.g. the HTC Universal but not on the HTC Wizard is the keyboard backlight. They both run WM5 and are tweakable to pretty much the same extent as far as the O/S and running software allows.

That said - I obviously rather like mine. -That- said, I can see myself moving to a different device 2-3 years down the road quite easily, especially with all the network upgrades -and- the speed at which new devices are coming out. Wouldn't be too surprised if they're all rather like smaller OQO's by that time.. handheld, good battery, running will Windows XP (probably not Vista yet - hardware specs for that thing are through the roof)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] blackobsidian:
See my comments have all been based on various forums I've read, posted on and recieved replies from. Apparently the OMAP architecture is completely different from most other processors and so it's a niche market (meaning people won't bother with trying to do anything good such as Linux, major overhauls of software, overclocking software etc) - Even Anton Tomov's Hack Master software is having issues with the overclocking functionality and keeps getting pushed back and back and back some more.

I have to say I bought my Wizard (MDA Vario flavour) because the design is slick and it was pretty fast in the shop demonstration. I didn't realise that the second I put anything on it, it'd slow down so much.

I've reflashed it with the best and fastest current rom out there:-

VERSION

ROM Version	1.6.7.1

ROM Date	38624

Radio Version	01.13.10

Protocol Version	4.0.13.17

ExtROM Version	1.3.2.102

And although it's faster than the bloated T-Mobile crap that it comes with by default it's still slow (my today screen only has SPB Pocket Plus and Pocket Weather on it but it still chugs occasionally) and it's an absolute nightmare playing something as simple as Arkaball!

"tweakable" I class as something I can mess around with. With my Samsung T100 I completely replaced the casin with a clear casing, reconfigured everything including LED colour and created my own firmware for it etc. I basically like to try and be individual which is why I won't got for a device already running Linux etc.

Tech Knowledge + Gadgets + being a geek = wanting cool stuff :)

OQO looks nice but huge. I'm looking for a device I can use for business (running a QA department) and as a mobile. Shoulda got myself a P990i... lol
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ZeBoxx:
Here's a proposition for your thoughts... if everybody is customizing their device, then not customizing your device makes you more of an individual

;)

That said - yes, if you want that manner of tweakability, you should've gone for a different device. I'm not sure why a Linux-preloaded one would be excluded from the get-go because you didn't put it on there yourself.. it certainly should open up tweaking possibilities.

Overclocking software for the OMAP does exist - and I'm sure AntonTomov will get one out eventually as the number of devices using the OMAP increases. I'm sure the XScale will still be #1 for some time to be with the recent pricedrops and announced speeds (1GHz - vroom).

However, just because it's a different architecture doesn't typically stop the person who go "But does it run Linux? it does now!" on e.g. Slashdot . Of course if Linux was on your mind from the get-go, a little googling around would've readily shown which devices run it natively and which have been successfully made to run it, to whatever extent, and should've based your purchasing decision on that :)

For what it's worth, the Treo 700w (650? - been a while) was on my list, but once in the shop with the device in my hand, I knew I would grow to hate the form factor within the first week.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] blackobsidian:
Correction... Everyone on this forum is customising their device... Most people in the real world buy a device and use it out of the box as they don't know or can't be bothered to upgrade it lol.

To be honest with you this is my first PPC device. Before this I was in a job where I didn't want or need the functions and features the PPC has and I had a K750i. Before that was a 7610 and before that a GX20.

I have to admit I was in the process of looking at PPC's when my K750i had an unfortunate incident where my fist went through the screen because it was crashing every 30 seconds... That's why I didn't research as much as I should have before getting my Wizard.

I've learned my lesson though and next time there'll be a LOT of research involved before I buy! :)

I'm assuming that individual hardware can't be replaced in the Wizard either? i.e. buying a faster processor/mobo etc? My mate's Universal had it's mobo replaced so maybe...

1Gb? Mmmm.... :D

Treo 700w is nice but it was the 990i I meant to say (I updfated it when I realised what I posted lol)
