[Thinkpad Tablet General] SuperNoobie:
Any one else has problems with bluetooth tethering from another device (phone) to the lenovo ideatab A3000?

I've tried to bluetooth tether from several phones (including nexus 4 and 5) but there is no "use for internet access" option when I go to the settings for the devices connected/paired via bluetooth. I only see "unpair" and "rename"

Bluetooth tethering is on and I've paired the devices. I've also managed to bluetooth tether from the A3000 to other devices.

Would really appreciate any advice and help to solve the problem!

Android Version: 4.2.2

Kernel Version: 3.4.5

Software version: A3000-130125

With 4.3 stock out on the Note II for all variants I was hoping someone would take on the task of theming the samsung apps such as Memo and S Note. I like the apps but I hate the brown and I know I'm not the only one. If I knew how to do it myself I would. If no one can but can point me in the right direction please do. Thanks in advance!

I have gotten the camera working on my xt912 with 3rd party apps such as FX camera but despite all the posts saying the stock camera is fixed in there latest cm 11 nightlies it still force closes on mine immediately on launch. I've tried wiping cache and dalvik as well as installing JBX and the older camera2.zip and cameras.zip. I've created new slots on SS and factory reset several times with fresh installs of the latest nightly. Is this maybe a csmera.apk permission issue or maybe a SD card problem? I really am lost where to go short of trying a different rom I guess. Everything else that I use on a daily basis works great..

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kj97:
As far as I know and what i have research, the only rom recovery that can be flash to my LG G2 is TWRP and would have to use Loki to bypass the bootloader. Please correct me if I'm wrong in the information. I have the ATT version, software version is D80010o, and on 4.2.2 Android Version Stock Rom of cause.

Questions:

- Does the G2 have to have an unlocked bootloader to flash anything even if it is rooted?

- Is TWRP the only recovery that can be flashed to the G2? If so what is the "manger" for it similar to Rom manager with CWM.

- Is there any other way to backup your current rom without using any recovery, this is my main goal for the moment?

Note: I have check if it is compatible with CWM base on the website yet when i flash CWM with Rom Manager( not the touch support version) and try to reboot the Red Triangle pops up. I have tried with Flashify and download the recovery img to the sd and it comes up with secure booting error ( I'm not sure if this is because i flashed both CWM and CWM with touch at the same time with Flashify wasn't sure if i needed to flash both for touch to work or just CWM Touch)

Please inform me with the correct produces to follow or link me to a solution. Side note this is my first time with an Android device and my first Smartphone so I'm kinda new to this rooting roms, kernal, thing. Thank you in advance to anyone that can help. Feel free to message me through XDA. Thanks.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bulldog212:
Anyone know why the density looks so drastically different between both variants? The Verge pics make it very clear something was lost in vanilla. I want the GPE version. But I want the Ultra in general because I want to see more info using the real estate, not because I'm impaired. I was hoping to avoid rooting a phone for the first time but it might be unavoidable. On my Note going from 320 to 260 is sooo much better use of space. Phone DPI on 6.4" would be way too cartoonish and such a waste. Anyone know the DPI settings for both versions?

No, you can still get OTA. Just make sure you back the original build.prop and when you get OTA switch to the original buid.prop file and the OTA would go through just fine.

So I have seen many say there can be problems when trying to flash a downgrade (older) ROM.... Example...I have CM 10.2; now say I flash CM 11 and don't like it... The story goes that I could encounter problems by attempting to revert back to 10.2..... BUT what if I made a nandroid via CWM recovery of my 10.2 install before I flashed 11? If I didn't like 11, couldn't I just restore my nandroid and be back at 10.2 painlessly?

I'm looking to partake of some vendor's service for the purpose of PUSH functionality. What does everyone here use? Their own MSE box, hosted Exchange, 4smartphone.net, web2mail.com, or some other service?

Personal Notes

- 4smartphone.net looks like the best, but you have to pay a year in advance (no monthly payments). Forget that.

- web2mail.com doesn't look like it supports SP2 which enables Push.

- I don't have a license to run my own Exchange box

- Other hosting services chanrge $15+/month and mostly without SP2.

What else are the choices out there? Now that we have ROM's that support it, I would assume MANY people will be looking for a solution on the server side.

Sup ladies/guys, today I present to you a wrist strap solution. If you are like me and don't like to put cases/covers on your phone and wish every phone had a wrist strap cling, like older phones used to have, then I have a solution for you. I have done this since I got my N5. I never like to put cases on my phone because I believe a phone is sexy, well certain phones. HTC makes the sexiest phones, in my opinion. See pictures below please.

Instructions: Take a thick needle that you can have a good grib on. A nail might work too. You might want to mark with a marker/pen where you want to place the two holes. With the needle start to wind it back and forth, Sort of like like a motion where, as if you are tightening a screw. Careful you dont pierce your hands, lol. You might have to push a bit while trying to make the holes, this should penetrate the needle. You should make the two holes vertical, unless u want them to be horizontal.

Don't ruin your phone when there are better options out there.
[Nexus 5 General] ink718:
lol, its fine. Nothing wrong with it. Looks like it was designed for the wrist strap.

I dont like cases or anything on my phone. I have a leather case on my belt, thats all i need and my wrist strap. I have never broke a phone in the past 10 years, and only i had on it was a wrist strap on it.
[Nexus 5 General] krylon360:
Then you may want to put a photo of ifixit's teardown of the other side of the back so people know they aren't piercing any part of the inductive charger
[Nexus 5 General] MikeCriggs:
Wrong section. This is for development, mate.
[Nexus 5 General] ink718:
Charging port won't be touched because you would have remove the cover to put the holes =).
[Nexus 5 General] krylon360:
I didn't say anything about the charger port. The wireless inductive charging coil is on the back side of the back cover.

If you poke a hole (or 2 for that matter) in the wrong spot; there goes your wireless charging. Plus...I highly doubt neither Google nor LG will honor a warranty claim if you deliberately punched holes in the back of the phone.

Hi everyone, I'm using Stocklite v8 custom rom, I am facing following issues,

1. Even when I have good network coverage (around 59 dBm) there is a huge lag while receiving a call. A caller to my number have to wait for around 20 seconds to receive a call, so sometimes the caller may end the call thinking my number is unreachable.

2. I don't receive SMS many times especially from web (e. g. I have not received SMS in first attempt from google when they wanted to verify my account) . I checked all the settings from my service provider but they said everything is fine.

I logged a complaint to my network provider but they think everything is fine. I even bought new SIM card thinking if the old one is causing problem, but still facing the same issue.

Even before Stocklite I was using Apocalypse rom & I was facing the same issue. So is it Android that causing me the problem?

Plz help me. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyber_Dragon001:
[1] Did you tweak some clock speeds, coz sometimes in roms they tweak it when your phone sleeps its clock speeds go down like 100mhz then when screen is on its back to full speed. And why do you have to wait 20 seconds??

[2] Try to go to airplane mode and turn it off, reboot. If that didnt solve your problem then apply a pin to your sim card, when i did that i can recieve sms.

Hope this solves your problem

Please read rules before posting, this is General Thread...NOT Q&A THREAD, so next time post your questions in the correct section, thank you for understanding it ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timurdis:
Thanks for the reply.:)

[1] Yes, I did check some of the clock speed tweaks & Minimum RAM tweak. But unchecked all these tweaks & then tried it but still the problem is persisting.

The problem is that sometimes when people call me they don't hear my caller tune for around 15-20 seconds & able to hear the tune after I receive the call although there is good network strength. So most of the people don't wait for that long thinking my number ain't reachable & end the call. But if they give another try just after the first attempt, they get a reception from me within 5 seconds :eek: I hope u got my point now.

[2] I did try that airplane mode trick but seems it's not working for me.

As I already said this issue doesn't occur everytime, but it happens randomly & very frequently. Also sometimes I get duplicate SMSs from my network provider. They checked everything from their end & confirmed that it's not a network related issue.

So, I believe it's my phone which is causing me this problem.:(

I was using the Cyanogenmod that recently went out to the Google Play market. I decided to go back to stock and tried to do a Firmware recovery in Samsung Kies. It all seemed to go fine but when it's time to start up I just hang on the Samsung logo.

I've been trying to fix it and even used Odin to flash a stock ROM (latest release from November 19th) which was successful, but I am still not having any luck getting the phone to start. It's just hanging every time I restart.

Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I hate to be such a noob but I could really use a few pointers.

Any time you do a factory reset or flash a new ROM it may take 5 to 10 minutes, and this is pretty standard. The reason why is it is booting deodexed instead of odexed I believe. The distinction is clarified in the link below.
