[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HKcow:
Dear all,

I have searched the web and flashed my phone for over 20 times in order to fix it after my serious mistake, I got no clue and decided to ask for help here. My phone is N7105 bought in Hong Kong. I would try to describe my issue using the fewest words...

- How things happen

1, I downloaded the latest 4.3 TGY firmware from sammobile, flashed it using mobile odin pro as I want to keep the root. After that I cannot connect wifi. Searching the web revealed that this is due to the old bootloader issue as BL did not update if flash by mobile odin.

2, Biggest mistake here. I know I should try to flash the firmware again by PC odin. However as I was not able to have a PC access yesterday I decided to see if some quick fix can help. I found a wifi fix in XDA (wifi_fix_for_MJ2.rar). I know it is for N7100 not N7105, but as It stated it is a fix I though nothing harm (very wrong!!!) and flashed it. After that my phone got the wifi back but have IMEI damaged. The phone is not able to reconize my sim after that.

3, I flashed the 4.3 TGY firmware by PC odin after I got back to home. (So the bootloader is 4.3 now). IMEI still cannot be fixed and SIM cannot be read.

- What resolution I have tried

Now I fully understand what's going wrong and I tried the following fix, but they all not working.

A, Using PC odin to flash the latest 4.1.2 firmware. This not working as odin refuse to flash, should be the 4.3 bootloader prevented this.

B, Using PC odin to get root and CWM <- OK. And then got a 4.1.2 firmware in CWM update zip format, put it in ext sd card and flash it in CWM <- OK. My phone seems to downgrad to 4.1.2. IMEI still damaged, no SIM. And phone is unstable (may hang after a while if it put idle, need reboot). Although it is 4.1.2 now I think the BL is still 4.3, as I still can't flash any 4.1.2 firmware by PC odin. And everytime I flash 4.1.2 firmware by PC odin it will appear fail on screen, and also render my phone dead. My phone would then cannot boot up and require to flash a 4.3 firmware again...

C, Tried to use Kie firmware restore feature. It flashed the 4.3 firmware but can't fix the IMEI issue.

D, Tried the EFS Professional but I don't know how to use it as I don't have a EFS backup before.

E, I got a param.bin from a thread of XDA (not sure if it is a good one or not, but the writer said it is for N7105). I flashed it using PC odin, status unchanged. (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47861647&postcount=242&nocache=1&z=8137774079208057)

- What help I am seeking for

1, Any EFS backup from you for N7105 which I can try? Maybe I can edit my own IMEI no. inside it?

2, Any way to restore the EFS data from flash?

3, Anyway to get back to a true 4.1.2 BL such that I can free to use PC odin to try different 4.1.2 rom? Currently I can only try to obtain CWM zip rom and it did not help.

4, Any other way which you can suggest?

Thank you so much for reading my help request...:crying:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HKcow:
Yes, it helped!

I searched this thread before but it was intended for I9305 but not N7105, so I did not apply the fix before. But the file Param_Bin_I9305.tar turn out worked for N7105!

Still if there is a way to downgrade my BL to 4.1.2 I am very much appreciated.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbrowaros:
It helped for my issue also.

Quick description what was my situation as it may help others:

Got a N7105 with a 4.1.2 ROM. For some reason installed rom for a AT&T version 4.4.2. Got a NULL/NULL imei and no wifi, mobile or anything on phone.

Trying to resolve the issue installed stock rom 4.3 (from sammobile) and stuck on loading screen. Few attempts later and waiting at least 20 min after each odin installation I've lost all hope. Installed ParamBin file from the mentioned thread and what a surprise - phone booted and all is working fine.

Thanks for this post, saved me.

[Q] Does anyone have a handle on expected "screen on" time from full charge?

I'm looking for a guesstimate as to how long the 3.3Ah battery can keep the

screen on from a full charge? Like with playing a video from the microSD card.

3-4 hrs? I'm used to swapping out extended batteries when I run low on power

on my Rezound, obviously with the design flaw of the imbedded battery that

isn't possible. I do have an external 12Ah battery that will provide up to

5v@2.1A.

Should I expect with the original HTC OEM USB cable (with the humps/rails)

that it will charge as AC power (1.5A vs 500mA) since the available power is

greater than the wall charger? Should I be able to get 2 or 3 charges from the

full 12Ah battery?
[HTC One Max] pradeepvizz:
The phone is able to manage 4.5 to 5 hours of graphics heavy gaming (all stock). i believe that watching a video from the SD should be more power efficient than gaming.
[HTC One Max] fuzzynco:
Thanks -- Better than expected

Do you think, when charging from an external battery 5v@2.1A, it will charge at the

"AC" 1.5A rate vs the "USB" 500mA rate? Using the htc oem cable (with the rails).
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Something tells me from the information you provided in the OP that you are the resident expert now. :D

If you dont know I dont know that any of us will and Im sure you will tell us all when you find out more.
[HTC One Max] thetiger_jad007:
12Ah will charge your phone 3.5 times only the difference between 1.5 and 0.5Ah is that the charge time is more..And I recommend to use the htc cable .. if you are asking if the external battery will charge at 1.5Ah then yes it will.. usually when you use a phone for example 1 Ah and you use an adapter 1.5 Ah the phone will take only 1 Ah but if you use an 0.5 Ah adapter it will take only 0.5 Ah

and be careful that if you use more than 1.5 Ah adapter it "may" overheat your phone.. and I don't recommend to charge your phone from the computer

I use to play movies 6 hours and still have 20%
[HTC One Max] pradeepvizz:
I am no expert on these stuff, just my few $... the MAX supports Qualcomm's quick charge like other devices like Samsungs Note 3/ S4. These devices basically are shipped with a 2A charges and the max still is at 1.5A, i am guessing its again HTC part of keeping the battery live longer. Given the other devices with Quick Charge technology allows 2 Amp input i am sure your external battery wish push it to 2 or atleast 1.5Amp

Hey XDA,

I recently ordered this case to replace my Ringke Fusion (which I both like and hate) and hopefully I will like it enough to keep it as my long term case. I haven't noticed much as far as reviews for this particular case so I was thinking of doing one for it. I have a new qi charger coming with it so I should be able to test that and see if it adversely affects the glass screen protector I have on right now. If anyone out there is interested in pictures of the case on the phone or anything like that, let me know and I'll do my best to include them when I review it on Thursday, I'm a little bit of a case junkie and typically try out several for my phones during their life time, but this is the first higher end case I'll have for the N5 and I'm really excited to see how it turns out.

Seidio Product Page

[Nexus 5 Accessories] RED ZMAN:
Probably no real reviews of this case because they're already well-known. Others have already posted, and I'll back it up, Qi wireless charging works perfectly with it. Simply the best cases you can buy. Also, the holsters are pretty fantastic.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MoonDoom:
I got the case in today and as apparently everyone knows already, this case is quality made. I previously had a Ringke fusion case on my N5 and liked being able to see the nexus logo, but hated the tpu layer and how the back collected dust every time it was put into a pocket. I decided to go with a more traditional 2 layer case and I thought that the Seidio Dilex looked the best out of the ones currently available.

Pros:

- After seeing the product in person, I'm immediately sold on this design. The case is much darker black than it appears on the website (bright lighting in their product photos) and the rubberized coating on the PC layer is the classic silky smooth texture that Seidio is known for and has used for years. On a side note, the other colors are actually really nice looking too if you prefer something other than black and it looks like they have the same texture coating. The case feels really good in hand because of the soft texture and the silicone actually feels really similar.

- The kickstand also adds just a little weight to the bottom of the phone and makes it somewhat easier to balance, hold and manipulate with one hand. Speaking of the kickstand, it's actually aluminum instead of plastic which is a nice touch. The best part is that the kickstand is spring loaded (slightly) to the outward position but also contains a magnet to hold it securely in place when not in use. It appears to be pretty well attached to the case so hopefully it will hold up over time.

- The ports are all pretty well lined up with the cutouts and they seem big enough to accommodate most cables.

- Qi charging works just fine, at least on the cheap chinese one I also got in today. NFC doesn't appear to be affected either, although I only tried once.

- I'm currently using a Nillkin glass screen protector and it appears that the silicone is soft enough not to interfere with the edges of the screen protector. May not be the same with other brands.

Cons:

- The only thing I can think of is that because the outer layer only presses the edges in the middle and corners, the silicone seems to be a little loose or saggy inbetween the "arms" of the outer shell. I'm hoping that settles into place over time but if it catches on my pockets too much, it might actually get worse.

- The sticky texture is great for grip, but also picks up a lot of dust, but that's not news to anyone who has used a silicone case before.

In conclusion, I'd probably give this case 4.7 out of 5 stars. I like just about everything about it but I wish the silicone they used was just a little less pliable.

Pictures of the Case

Sorry, I know the pictures are garbage (I had to take them with my old phone so the N5 could be in the case) but I'd be happy to answer any questions y'all might have.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] GoatsTech:
Looks real nice little too thick for my taste though.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bblzd:
This looks almost exactly like the generic thick kickstand cases that are being sold under various brands at various prices.

Dilex Case and Qi

Good morning. I wanted to follow up on your case experience with Qi charging I put this case on a Samsung Galaxy S5 and used a powerbot circular charging pad. I found that to get the charger aligned, I needed to prop the device up on the kickstand so it was a little firther from the pad, and I could not get a charging lock.

I'm trying to figure out if that is a function of the powerbot's charging signal or the anatomy of my Qi pad. Does your phone sit square on the charging pad? or is it propped up on the kickstand?

Thanks,

Marcva

Just reinstall CWM recovery via the Recovery Manager app by the CWM team.
[HTC Amaze 4G] el_muerte28:
You have never seen me here, though I have been lurking for quite a while. I don't know that much about how Android works and usually leave everything up the pros. Recently, as in 1 1/2 hours ago, I tried to flash CM 11 through 4EXT. Well... it failed. I was stuck at the HTC loading screen and couldn't access the internal storage. I dug around the internet for a while and, while I did find some work arounds to fix it, they were lengthy and didn't work on Windows 8.1. So, being the impulsive person I am, I attempted something extremely stupid to hopefully solve my issue... and it worked! So, here goes:

1) Boot in 4EXT (not sure if it works on other recoveries)

2) Press the USB storage button

3) On your computer, open up explorer and find where the device is connected (there should be two partitions, D: and E:\)

4) One of the two will have files while the other one just shows a device (for me, it was E:\). Right click, hit properties, then format it. Yes, your read that right: Format it.

5) Reboot your phone into recovery. You should now have access to the internal SD card. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
Nice helpful first post. Next time I get stuck like that I'll have to try. It beats the heck out of reinstalling.
[General Topics] BeyondtheTech:
Is it just me, or is there never anyone online with any of the i-mate Multiplayer games?

I bought Blackjack, my device came with Backgammon, my friend showed me his Universal with his copy of Pool, and we agree that there's never anyone online!

Perhaps the software was too expensive, or is everyone who is getting online having the same issue, or is it just that people are getting on at different times, or does the software just suck?

:?
[General Topics] GWilliy:
Or is it the price per Mb over GPRS makes it tooooooo expensive ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
I noticed after the 4.3 update my T999L gets hot really fast. Like 15 - 20 minutes on YouTube and boom, its hot. Especially during gaming. Now I know all Android phones may get a little warm after being used heavily over a long period but damn, my S3 LTE is like burning. I don't know what it is. I've done multiple factory resets, I've turned off the LTE and just used HSPA+...it still doesn't make a difference but I did notice when I'm using LTE it burns up a lot quicker. Not sure what the temps were but it would be so hot I'd turn the phone off and pull the battery just to be safe my phone doesn't blow up or melt or something.

I have unlimited data so I rely on the T-Mobile network. No Wi-Fi at my house right now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Please flash prior modem for your specific device.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
So it's the modem update on the 4.3 that's causing my T999L to over heat?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DJ_SpaRky:
I was on CM10.2 on MB7 and updated to CM11 on MK4 without heat issues, even when gaming. But I am on WiFi almost exclusively when I am doing anything that might cause heat issues. Try Airplane mode and see if you still have issues.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
I can't do anything on my phone in airplane mode lol. Besides gaming but then I still expect a little heating because CPU still has to work. I play Zombies vs Plants 2 & Angry Birds Go.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Yes I suspect the new Modem to be likely responsible. The 2 games you mentioned may make the phone warm but won't make them hot.

Edit - I guess if you played for quiet a while, they may make it hot... :p
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
Right, that's what I mean anything a little intense I expect some heating but YouTube and web browsing seems so basic for my phone to get so hot. Thanks for the response. Can you link me to the correct files? I have the LTE S3 on T-Mobile. I'm stock 4.3 no root. Is it still possible to flash the old modem through Odin still?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If you are willing then you'd need to follow precise steps or end up with a expensive paperweight.

So if you want proceed, follow Post 2 of this thread

Follow the instructions to flash a custom Recovery with Odin. Once done, instead of Rooting with flashing SuperSU, you should flash a correct Modem for your phone from this thread first post. There are 2 modems for your phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
Thank you.

Hi, I just bought my LG g2 a week a go. I havent installed an apk file yet until now. When i try I cant click the install button. I check the unknow source on security settings.

Can someone help me?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jocelyn:
Do you have something dimming the screen like Lux? Other apps that filter the screen will do this as well, so try disabling them before installing.

Edit - Actually Lux will disable itself when you install something, so it's probably a different app or mod that does something similar.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjason:
You might want to try to disable "Verify apps" (just below "Unknown sources") in Settings - General - Security and see what's happening.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
I own LG Tone headset and a while back decided to upgrade to Tone+ because of "advanced multipoint" Bluetooth feature. The device has absolutely horrendous bug, which renders the multipoint feature completely unusable. Once you have 2 devices connected and one of them happens to be cell phone - you cannot take your conversation elsewhere because as soon as you move out of range of the other connected device the headset keeps repeating "out of range...trying to connect" literally every 10 seconds, and while its doing that it mutes the phone line, so 50% of the phone conversation is missed on both ends of the call.

I sit in a crowded office and I have my phone and either tablet or laptop connected to the headset. Once I receive a call - I have to step outside to take it. As soon as I do that the "out of range...trying to connect" nightmare begins. I called LG support and all they could offer is an apology and a vague promise to submit customer complaint, which may or may not be taken into account for the future headsets. LG confirmed there is no way to disable that ridiculous notification and muting the phone line and there will be no firmware update to address that. After several days of trying to live with this horrible bug and trying to make it work I gave up and got RMA from amazon and sent the headset back

My questions is: can anyone, who actually owns the new LG Tone Ultra HBS-800 please check if this new model has the same issue? Looking for answer from an actual owner or LG employee - someone, who actually knows. LG support has not been able to answer this question for 2 weeks now - ticket still open and pending.

I'm not interested in speculations or suggestions for another headset.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
Since no one replied, including LG support, I went ahead, bought the headset and tested it myself. Turns out, despite me spending many hours on the phone and email with LG support 6 months ago when I tested HBS-730, reporting this issue, having it escalated and doing everything I can to make sure it gets fixed in the next headset in the series (which is this one, HBS-800) those LG morons failed to do anything about it and the exact same issue as described above is present in the new Tone Ultra headset - BUYERS BEWARE!!!

I've already returned mine for full refund.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
For those of you, who like this form factor for a BT headset as much as I do, and are looking for an alternative to LG Tone series, which doesn't have the nasty defect described above - check out HV-800 headset. It looks identical to LG Tone series headsets, and it works much better than HBS-700, HBS-730 and HBS-800 combined and it costs literally 5x less than HBS-800. I've bought and tried all 4 models, so I can compare.

As you know, there are 2 Bluetooth profiles these headsets must support, in order to be used in stereo mode for phone and music:

1. Phone Audio

2. Media Audio

HV-800 supports multiple phone audio profiles, so you will be able to pair and connect it to 2 phones simultaneously. It supports only 1 media audio profile at a time, so you will be able to connect it only to 1 device, which plays music at a time. That is still way better than all 3 LG Tone headsets, because HBS-700 doesnt support multipoint connections at all, and HBS-730, HBS-800 have this nasty multipoint defect. Also, switching media audio connections with this headset is a breeze - it disconnects from one device and connects to another instantly, with no issues. LG Tone on the other hand, has a major firmware issue reconnecting to different media devices - it hangs, freezes, refuses to disconnect from one and reconnect to another. Even turning it off doesnt help - it seems to let the death grip of the previous media device connection go whenever it chooses, and sometimes you have to wait like half an hour before it does that and lets you connect the headset to another device via media audio profile.

In conclusion: after spending considerable time comparing the capabilities of these headsets to use & switch multiple Bluetooth connections I can say that between 4 of these headsets the HV-800 is by far and away the best headset in this regard, and definitively my choice, until same form factor headset with proper media audio multipoint connection support comes along.

The next one I'll be trying is Sony SBH80. It comes out in March
