As many of you I have been suffering from the constant spam of Mobogenie app, forcing downloads on both of my Android devices. What concerns me is the easy way this guys can skip us, the users, to downooad something we don't want, which by definition its called SPAM (so I guess Playstore and Android guys should take care of)

Nether ways I find this official announcement from the Mobogenie staff: http://blog.mobogenie.com/mobogenie/news/a-message-from-mobogenie-support-team/ ( sorry for not placing the hyperlink but this tablet messes with thr selection tools)

Complete text:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheZbunj:
Hi,

I tried to update my friends HTC Desire HD from 2.3.5 to 4.2.2. Let me point out that my experience with ROM flashing and rooting is limited.

Since he still had stock ROM my plan was to unlock bootloader, root the device, flash CWM and flash custom some custom ROM(same way I have done before with HTC wildfire S)

I used htcdev to unlock bootloader and that went well.

After that I tried to root using HTC Quick Root. Rooting failed with message device is missing Insecure boot.img. In order to fix this I tried to flash boot.img from fastboot using folllowing command: fastboot flash image boot.img

After this device never booted again. It starts to boot showing green HTC logo but soon goes to image of phone with red triangle and exclamation.

I have red many posts about this problem and possible solutions but non of it worked for me.

As I understand it solution is to flash RUU or manually flash recovery.img but I need some help on how to proceed.

RUU install is failing with error140bootloader version error.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yumm91:
Red triangle means that u dont have custom recovery installed. Just download the recovery.img from cwm website, boot the device into fastboot, and flash recovery using command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Then, reboot to bootloader and select recovery. The red triangle should be replaced by cwm recovery at this point. So u can flash whatever rom u want. Just do not forget to flash boot.img of the rom everytime u flash new rom.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
Also the correct command is

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I've searched and I couldn't find an answer, so I'm hoping someone will indulge me by answering again :roll:

My device was supplied to me by my office as an MDA Vario, but I've unlocked it and I use it as my personal phone on orange. Whenever I load internet explorer it goes to a t-mobile favourites page (http://www.tmobile-favourites.co.uk) regardless of what I set the home page to in the options.

How do I change this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Great hardware for the money, and a great range of content to buy, but Amazon’s take on Android still feels comparatively inflexible.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmonk3:
I really want to root this dang KF but every time I hook it up to any charger or cable it goes black and shuts down.... I have read all over the net the last few weeks and seems this isnt super common like the charging port problem... It works good when running on the battery. Anyone have any ideas before it gets used for target practice?

Oh and I am not a total newbie, but its been several years since I have been here and made a new user name.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
First generation kindle fire? Are you using the correct cable? If both of these are true seems you have a kindle with a serious hardware issue. How do you manage to charge it? Best to avoid rooting this one till that issue has been remedied.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmonk3:
1st gen and Yes I have tried the amazon cable/plug, and many others that I have laying around.. It charges just fine, it just goes black screen when I plug any cable into it via wall or PC. I have done every hard reset I can find on the net... I got this at a friends pawn shop so I am not out much.. I was wanting to root it and give it to the neighbor kid that has downs syndrome.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Try this when connected to charger long press power button for 1 min. then let go then press as if to simply power on the device. Sending a bootloader to this Kindle is extremely risky if it powers off during the send the bootloader can be broken. This is the second hardest brick to recover from the first being a dead battery :p . Chances are this device has been rooted before and that`s why it was pawned look for evidence of being opened maybe someone incorrectly applied the short trick to recover from a hard brick. Which might be the best way to go about rooting it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1430038 . Are you sure the backlight is not remaining on but just giving the appearance that it is off? The first gen. kindle fire will not charge without a running system.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmonk3:
I am not home right now, but will try your suggestion when I get home. I have never owned a kindle so I am not sure of how the start up progression is.. But when I plug it in the screen seems to go black ( in a dark room) and once I take it off the charger and push power button it brings up the "Kindle Fire" screen and it kind of pulses then goes to the unlock screen.. Its there suppose to be a charging indicator light? I dont see one when I plug it in
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Yes the led should light green for charged and orange for depleted or charging.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmonk3:
Ok I tried the 1 minute reset deal again, no joy.. I inspected the case and there is zero sings of tampering.. While I was out , I ran by my friends pawn shop and got another kindle charger.. He had another kindle he just gave me in case I needed parts... This new kindle wont boot on Press the power button and nothing shows up .. It shows orange charging light and green power light comes on briefly when power is pushed and then the green light shuts off after 3 seconds.. I am going to read the thread about firekit and shorting info.. Goal is to get the one that actutally boots repaired then might study up on the other one..
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmonk3:
Just an update.. Dumb me , I said it was a 1st but it is indeed a 2nd gen... Sorry all for posting in the wrong forum.. But even with that said, it still shuts off the minute I connect a charging cable LOL.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boston1807:
2nd gen same issue...shuts down when connected to computer- computer won't recognize

Did you ever figure out how to solve issue? I have same problem. It used to work fine. I have another, identical, it works fine. All the sudden, one of the kindles 2nd gen HD started to act up. If I connect it to computer it gives me error message that it is a low powering device.. computer does not recognize anything was plugged in then kindle shuts down exact way as you described it. Tried reboot computer, kindle, long holding power button, connect while off then start up...you name it. (Charges up fine with wall plug in too... I fully charged it to make sure that is not the issue...all I keep seeing on net is reset...but that did not solve my issue.) So if you can share any wisdom it would be great!!!

My screen gave out on my S3 so just ordered the note 3.

I have also ordered the s view case in black with built in qi charger from handtec, It was about £50 delivered.

So now I need a QI charging block....

Maybe a tempered glass screen protector...

Any suggestions on the above that will work well together and fit.

I have seen QI blocks for quite cheap... but was tempted to go for a power bank one. I could always do that at a later, and get a cheaper standard block now.

Is there anything to watch out for or avoid with these QI blocks? Do the cheaper ones just do the same job?

And which tempered glass protector will work well with the s view?

Any other must haves?

Congrats on the note purchase, you'll love it!

I would recommend a tempered glass screen protector (perhaps one from eBay, depends on how much you're willing to pay). Especially since you will be using the S-View flip cover. I had this case for about three days and it left a gnarly scratch on my screen. Here is a thread that shows the damage done (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2521821).

If you have iFunny, you're most likely annoyed or tired by the new update...

So, without further adew, I have an idea that could become a top competitor against iFunny. In fact, I can't tell you many details about this application until I get the first (Alpha) version of this application up and running, so I can get the copyrights of it!

THIS IS NOT A HOMEBREW PROJECT.

This may just be an idea at first, but I am already getting the documents ready to copyright this, and I'm already buying the domain/website for it!

So, with the help of some android developers, we will be competing against iFunny in no time!

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask or converse freely below! Or, if you are serious about being a developer for my organization, feel free to Skype me at dsman444 or email me at dsman444@gmail.com

If the domains, servers and advertisements go in to place, revenue will be made. If revenue will be made, then Later on, all developers and staff will likely get paid!

Hey Guys,

After doing some reading about Folder & partition structure of Android, I am totally confused & in worse condition.

My question is simple;

Flashing a new ROM does not reset/delete the folder in the internal SD card. Since I have capacity problem, I would like to delete those folders and make fresh start. How can I do this? Is is safe to delete /android/data folder?

Under setting/storage, the sum of all folders is around 5.2 GB, while it shows the total as 8.8 GB. Where is the rest of my space?

in recovery before flashing a rom you have to wipe data, system, cache, dalvkit cache, etc

i wist phyl recovery sayd wike internal memory, but there is no option like that, only wipe sdcard1 (external)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiabonan:
Okay this is what you need to do.

First download official firmware through SamMobile, then flash the .tar file through Odin, the boot into recovery, factory reset, the flash the same .tar file again. This will wipe out ALL your data on internal storage and give you a true fresh start. Of course after that if you're not happy you can always flash a custom recovery and flash a ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xhuttra:
Thanks for the replies. Going back to original firmware, seems like a tough route.

When I connect my device to windows, it simply allows me to format the SD card. What would happen IF I just do that? Would I brick the phone or loose an irrecoverable important data? (I don't care, If some bloatware does not work or loose its data)

[Moto X Q&A] larry62:
Have a XT-1053 on Net10. Every once in a while I'll turn on my phone (from screen off, not powered down) and it displays the notification that I don't have a SIM card installed and can only use the phone for emergency use. Rebooting doesn't seem to help, I have to remove and reinsert the SIM card and reboot. Running 4.2.2.

Anyone else running into this issue? Is it likely a marginal SIM card, an Android issue (similar to what is reported regarding AIO on 4.4), the APN settings or possibly a problem with the phone hardware? The problem re-occurrence is anywhere from minutes to weeks.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
If rebooting doesn't fix the problem then it's not firmware related, instead it sounds like a physical contact issue. Is the sim card a proper nano sim or something that has been cut down to fit? I'd get a replacement nano sim, if the problem still occurs have the phone replaced.
[Moto X Q&A] racer83l:
I have had the same issue, the sim card was replaced never had the issue again.
[Moto X Q&A] larry62:
Unfortunately, it was cut down by the selling vendor (a Net10 reseller). Although they sell iphone's which must come installed with nano SIMs, they do not sell nano SIMs by themselves. You have no choice but to cut down a full/micro SIM. For all I know, they are doing the same for the iphone sales as well. Seems like many of the MVNOs are similar in not selling nano SIMs right now (Red Pocket is the one exception I've seen offer them).

It does make sense that a reboot not fixing the problem points to a problem with the SIM or phone.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
Cut down sim is a massive red flag - 99.99% that is the issue. They also really shouldn't be doing that, are they also thinning the sim by sanding it? The nano sim is thinner, it is very hard on the sim socket to use a regular sim cut down to nano size as it's technically too thick for the socket.
