Did you download the gapps with no set metadata? what safestap version are you running?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] aiser91:
I may have downloaded the one with no set metadata I'll have to check on that. I'm using 3.63. It said it was the latest version when i downloaded.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kburt8:
Update to SafeStrap 3.65, this fixes the need for nosetmetadata. You should be able to use the GApps from the CM site if you don't plan to use ART. Otherwise, I would get the PA Minimal GApps.

[General Questions and Answers] vinz3nt:
Give these ones a try, don't be fooled by the low price, the built-quality is actually pretty good and the sound quality outperforms many, more expensive earbuds:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/AWEI-ES-900...22511054?pt=US_Headphones&hash=item20db8ea0ce

Stumbled on 'em in a review while I was looking for other earbuds. Unfortunately I can't remember the site that reviewed 'em.

The reviewer was impressed as they sounded like $100 earbuds.

Just for fun I gave 'em a try. Never stopped using them. In any case it outperforms my old Sony and Creative earbuds.
[General Questions and Answers] ywindlass:
Klipsch S4i in East headphones are the best on the market in my opinion. You can probably find them online for a cheaper price. For the price that they come, they have the best sound quality. If you're looking for a lot of bass though you might be underwhelmed, although the S4i produces accurate sound.
[General Questions and Answers] BadWolff23:
i believe that depends on WHAT you want to hear, if you want to add bass to your music maybe some beats or something like that, but if you want some clarity , maybe some Bose earbuds, they are pretty neat as in ear monitors (i'm a musician) and usually they have a flat response which is the best for hearing EXACTLY what you are supossed to hear.

I have a pair of Sennheiser ear buds with a noise canceling function. Comes in real handy for long loud bus and train rides in rush hour.. They were like 59 bucks last year.. Really nice quality and they go loud. Picked em up at Bestbuy.

I keep hearing great things about the Beats earbuds though. They may be my next purchase. Although they are pricey!

nice to know!, what are the earphones that are compatible with buttons control?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DMan1993:
So I currently own a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 which has been on contract since November 2011. I've been eligible for an upgrade for about 6 months now and today my Note 3 arrived in the mail. I ordered it from eBay unlocked rather than through T-Mobile due to price, but it still retains the T-Mobile LTE bands. Now my question is sort of complicated since it pertains to my situation. My mother who's not currently on a plan is planning to sign up for T-Mobile and wants to use my phone for her contract (the Galaxy SII). My sister is currently in charge of my plan and since this is the first unlocked phone that I've purchased I don't exactly know how the process works. The Note 3 came with a T-Mobile micro sim card that hasn't been activated yet, but my Galaxy S II uses the older large sim card. As of writing this post I haven't turned the Note 3 on yet due to charging. My question(s) is, can I activate the new sim card from home and continue to keep my phone number from the SII (before my mom signs up for the plan) or do I have to sign up for a new contract under T-Mobile to be able to use the Note 3 with the same phone number? Also in the mean time can I use the unlocked phone without a sim card? Help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mrej201:
yea bro just called tmobile to tranfer your number to a new simcard

---------- Post added at 08:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

you can also cut the simcard like the note 3 simcard and try it out should work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DMan1993:
Thanks dude, managed to get everything working alright. They just cut the sim card and inserted it back in.

Hi

I bricked my phone last night went to ATT and they replaced it under warranty as it was in a boot loop now this morning i stupidly bricked it again do ATT track replacements? Ie could i go to a different store and claim warranty or would their records show it was replaced today?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
Why not just sort it out instead, mate?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil999:
I cant get into download mode so i dont believe its fixable.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
Okay, what about custom recovery :/?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phil999:
I had TWRP but cant get into that only fastboot. ADB doesnt show any devices even though i show USB Android Phone ADB Port under Android Phone in Device Manager.

Any ideas are welcome...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 20degrees:
I hate to sound blunt but.

Sounds like your best bet is to take a loss. Why should att take a loss at your lack of knowledge?

And to stop messing with phones cause you don't seem to understand the concept. It's not meant to be.

LG G2
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
I'm also against the fact that you use the warranty to get a replacement for bricking you phone - which is not covered by warranty. There is a solution to it, but you will need help from someone more competent than me.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krypticos:
I have seen something here that unbricked his device under ubuntu and replaced imgs manually.

Also I have to agree with 20degrees it really sounds like you shouldn't be messing with phones if you bricked 2 in under 24 hours.

Also I would think att will not warranty the phone because you just warrantied one 24 hours ago
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchlbenner:
Leave your phone alone and they do keep records but truth is they dont know what so they will replace it but it doesn't make it right,

It very clear that you have NO phone skill at all leave it stock.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Hello guys,

I know there's probably tons of theards, but I'm sure I read most of them and I'm still with a problem.

I'm trying to unlock my bootloader on my Xperia Go (ST27i) and I can't get into fastboot mode!

I've installed Android SDK, I've install the drivers from Flashtool, I still can't get it working.

What to you guys recommend me? Uninstall everything and install again (Will that even work?)

Thank you,

Kript3r.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
And the OS on your computer is?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Win7 x64
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Have you installed fastboot drivers as well?

What happen when you connect in fastboot mode then? Post the log from flashtool while you attamp to connect in fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Well I guess I forgot to metion, I'm a totally newbie on this...

So I need to have flashtool opened while connecting the phone? If that's it I'm so stupid... :o
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
No it's not a mus to have flashtool open if you are using fastboot from command line, I just want to see if it's detected in fastboot mode (notification led should turn blue)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
It doesn't turn blue, it's just goes to the battery screen...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
First the phone must be turned off and disconnected from the USB cable, then you press volume up and connect the USB cable while you holding it dwn.

Another way is to enabled USB debugging in developer options, connect the phone to the pc, then in flashtool click the flash icon, select fastboot, and in the window the comes up click reboot into fastboot (via adb).

Try both methids.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Both methods didn't work...

What it could be? I've check and I've the drivers correctly installed.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
IDK, I can get my phone in fastboot mode for a few seconds connecting it to the charger and not the PC.

What's in flashtool log?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
12/005/2014 00:05:28 - INFO - Please wait device is rebooting into fastboot mode (via ADB)

12/005/2014 00:05:29 - INFO - Device will soon enter fastboot mode

12/005/2014 00:05:29 - INFO - Device disconnected

12/005/2014 00:05:56 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging on

What is could be? It's really weird in my opinion...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Yup very weird.

What firmware version you have? and can you connect in flash mode?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Flashmode works fine, I already flash it with a unbranded version and it still doesn't work.

Firmware version is 6.2.A.0.400

I tried everything that I know...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
.400 the worse firmware ever.

Have you tried repair with PC Companion or SUS? What version you get from Sony?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
I was using the last version I can get which was 6.2.A.1.100 (can't get any higher).

But I flash it with other version to test it, and still doesn't work...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Any particular reason you need fastboot?

You cannot flash custom kernels and non stock based ROMs but you can still root it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
I want to unlock my bootloader, I need to access fastboot to do it (I believe that's the only way).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I asked for the reason, and if its "to unlock my bootloader" you can forget about it alltogether. Unlocked boot loader by itself has no advantage over lokecked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Well I want to install custom roms and newer versions, but since my bootloader is locked I can't do it...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
Bump, still need some help please.

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Well as I said you can still root, and flash newer versions that do not require flashing custom kernel, like stock JB based ROMs (I think I saw one)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kript3r:
I have it rooted, and I have the latest ROM witch is 6.2.A.1.100, I really want to use a custom ROM since this is so laggy... I've tried 3 versions Hong Kong Unbraded, and Malaysia (think are the same) still slow...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie:
Howdy Folks,

Ive recently changed from a Galaxy S3 (which played video I could through at it without a problem) to a Note 3 and it seems that AC3 isnt supported natively for it. If I run the Video with MX Player's software decoder it all works fine. Its a major annoyance though having such an expensive replacement that doesnt perform the same functions as an older unit.

Anyone else able to confirm it wont play AC3 Natively, is there some codec app I can install that works with all video player apps ??
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
To be honest it's just as easy to use VLC or MX or something similar, native video player is limited (slightly) I can't really comment as to what it plays cause I have yet to use it, Straight to MX for me.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie:
Why Samsung chose to drop AC3 native support from the Note 3 is beyond me, I think even the Note 2 had AC3 support out of the box as did the Galaxy S3 & 4.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] starik:
Caller ID app allows u to assign different ringtones/music and photos to different callers - ie to personalize it. Just like on regular cellphones.

However the app that comes with phone is crap. Doesn't work half the time.

Download Photo Contacts Pro by pocketx. DOnt bother with any other caller id apps - i tried them all.

The latest version of PCP is decent, tho not perfect IMO. But at least it works like it's supposed to!

I ended up going back to eclipse 4.2.2 and now every time I run a system process my phone freezes. Black screen. Sometime reboots.

I was doing full wipes or data/cache/davlik every time.

I can't figure it out. Pressing volume up or down freezes and lags the phone.

Pressing the phone icon lags and submitting the call lags the phone.

On top of that my mp3s on my sdcard no longer work on Google music...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thesoldier:

There's a stock rooted MK2 ROM you can flash in CWM. Just don't take that OTA!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
if you are mdk, I would NEVER take OTA as that will cause you to lose custom recoveries and ability to rom any type of ROM and custom kernels. There is a way to continue forward with MDK but I don't know what the process is as I don't have MDK myself
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gt5oh:
Yes I rejected the update.

Instead I put on CWM recovery and flashed the TW stock 4.3 build

Was running Eclipse 4.2.2 before
