[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gypsy214:
My phone screen cracked on a bottom corner and now half the touch on the screen dont work. I've been looking online to replace the glass and digitizer. Since it seems to be a combo for the G2. They go for $100 but right before I buy the screen I seen some reviews and realized that these glass screens are not original from LG meaning no Gorilla glass. And some people reported some of the issues with the screen. Knock on, low 30%-50% less brightness than original etc.

So if you cracked your screen and replaced it how is your experience with it. And if you can find the link of the item you bought it will be helpful
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makrilli:
If you want somebody to post some links you should state which model you have. But anyway I cracked my screen a while back (D802) and bought a replacement screen with the front housing from germany for 170€. It wasn't hard to replace it. Altrough it wasn't the first phone I've fixed so I had some experience.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trader37:
I have an unrooted Bell Note 3. I unlocked it using an unlock code that I paid for and it is currently on the Fido netowrk. I keep losing data on the phone. The phone is set to search networks automatically and the network mode is set to GSM/HSPA/LTE(auto connect).

I'll be driving along and all of sudden it'll come up saying no data connection but I'll have full signal. No 3G/4G notification at all.

Has anyone had this issue?

I'd rather not root the phone and install a different rom until it's out of warranty.

thx

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Reef:
Hello.. Anyone in here who has managed to find a solution to this problem?

The stock headset is very anoying IMO (The ones that came with the Qtek S200 package).

Therefore I bought a small microjack(male)-to-minijack(famle) adapter.

But when I tried to use this together with my old headphones (which use minijack) I only got sound in my left side.

Im guesing that it has to do with the fact that there is both R,L and Mic channels in the microjack port, and that they are placed in an order, in which the normal R,L microjack, will not connect to the R and L in the port!

Is this correct? And what to do about it?

Thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] acer175:
Reef, there are lots of problems with using these adapters, the connection is not steady.

It is suggested to use an adapter that has a wire between the input and output.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] rasmy:
I use one without any problems and I get sound in bothe L and R. I am using Radio Shack adapter.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Matterhorn:
I have several different adapters. Some of them don't make a good connection and I only get one channel (off and on). I ordered this one to use with my navigation system in the car...it has a rock solid connection and a mic! I might add that they sell Martin Fields screen protectors too. http://doml.com/productdec.asp?pid=2149&model=818p&modeln=i-Mate JAMin

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] acer175:
yep, those types are good.

I'm guessing Reef has the compact ones, without a wire between the male and female.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Reef:
Exactly.. But the thing is that it works perfectly when i pull i 1mm out and bend it a bit to the left.. Then there is sound in both channals..

I also bought a microjack male with no wires on it, so I gues i can try to make my own.. Just need some wire, some tools and a female minijack..

But did anyone of you know which band is the mic band? The top, middle or bottom? Cause I don't wanna waste any more money..

Headset

I smashed the headset that came with my 818 Pro in a car door and ruined it. I have been trying to find a replacement that is a better design (that stays on when I run), but have had no luck. I thought I had it in the Jabra C220s. This is a horribly designed product. They actually went out of their way to make it so that it will only play in the left ear when plugged into the PPC / phone. If you use the included adapter it works in stereo, but then the plug is 3.5 mm.

Has anybody found a decent pair of headphones with the microphone to work with the prophet? I imagine any 2.5 mm jacked PPC / Smartphone would be the same.

Thank you.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] thulsey:
Re: Headset

Dopod makes a nice pair of earbuds made to work with all HTC devices and includes a mic. Sold separately, of course. :roll:

Perhaps you can find them where you got your 818pro?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kta:
The ideal solution is to dismantle the mic piece (where there's the mic and the headphone wires coming out), unsolder the stock headphones and solder a pair of headphones of your choice. There's a lot of info about this in the Magician forum.

The second option, as Acer mentioned, would be to use the ones with the wire between the 2.5mm male and the 3.5mm female.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] tilez:
i use one without wire and there are no problem at all
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] soop:
I use an adaptor similar to stories, and it works great.

have to say tho, the socket in the Prophet is a bit loose. No big deal tho.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] SkinHead69:
yup...the headset port @ HTC Prophet is a _bit_ loose, so you've got a chance to unplug by accident...

anyway, i also use a 2.5 to 3.5mm adapter, and connected into Senheiser PX100. it's sound good!!!

Long story short I flashed a SystemUI.apk that wasn't for my phone (XT1033 DUAL SIM 8GB GSM Australia), and now all it does is crash with no navigation or status bars what so ever.

Since when do you define what is proper forum etiquette and what is not? The last I checked, that was the moderator's job. The poor guy is just trying to find an inexpensive version of the case. Not everyone can afford a $50+ case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] chrismast:
Thanks for your comment. To answer you:

I don't. I merely expressed my opinion as you do, and of course that's your right to do.

In addition you are totally right that he is free to post anything and it might not go agains forum rule number #6, hence I did not mention anywhere it is against the rules.

I am also aware of the fact that not anyone can afford a US$50+ case, btw I also can't or won't. Again I just expressed my opinion which you can take or leave.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] wetbiker7:
He possibly could have phrased his question differently. Maybe used imitation instead of fake? Imitation sounds better but I guess it just depends on who's reading it and whether or not they can see through things like that. Still, the fact remains that he was asking for some help regarding a cheaper case that looked like the Atom. Instead, you offer him your opinion on what he should and should not ask for in the forum. Necessary? I think not. Did you help him? No. Did it look like you were trying to put yourself on a pedestal? Absolutely. Why even take the time to reply to his question if not to help?

[Android General] Seanthedroid:
Okay, so basically, when you start backing up cwm boot files, custom ROMs, and cwm backups on the pc (or SD card, this works on a cwm bootable sd too), I've always found it convenient to group all these folders and files into a library. But, when you create a library, there is a default picture that you can't change. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix that. What I do have, however, is an icon file for the <C:\Users\[Your Username]\My Android> folder, which you should probably create and add to the library then drop all your android-related files into there (if you choose to go the library route, though I would suggest this as all that stuff everywhere can get to be quite a mess).

The file is a batch png to ico converted *.ico file, and includes the following sizes: 8x8, 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, 128x128, and 256x256, the 8x8 and 16x16 look *really* crappy and are almost too tiny to be visible, but that should be expected, and the 256x256 look blurry, though still decent. As with all batch icon files, the size should adjust automatically according to your icon size setting is.

Instructions:

1.) Download the *.ico file, and move it from [your download location] to <C:\Windows\System32>, so you never have to see or bother with it

again once you're done.

2.) Navigate to <C:\Users\[Your Username]\My Android>. If it doesn't exist, create it then add it to the "Android" library.

3.) Right Click

4.) Select "Properties"

5.) Click on "Customize" tab

6.) Under "Folder icons", select "Change Icon..."

7.) Click "Browse...", and navigate to the *.ico file you just downloaded in the <C:\Windows\System32> directory. It should be one of the only

ones there.

8.) Once the icon file is selected, click "OK"

9.) The selection window should close automatically. Click "Apply" on the Properties window, then close it.

10.) Add The folder to your currently empty library.

11.) If anyone figures out or knows how to change a library icon, please include that in a comment and I will copy and paste it into this post

(this forum has an edit feature, right?) and credit your username at the bottom.

*Please do not remove this post because it's nooby or pointless cosmetics not related directly to android development, I already know that. If it's in the wrong thread, which I'm not entirely sure of since this is my first time posting here, please move it. Since a mod is usually the only usergroup that can delete threads, I'm assuming that if you're reading and considering deleting this thread then you also have the ability to move it.*

What are the best looking roms for the LG Esteem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jogawa:
Since so many of us have to use Safestrap to use custom ROMs, thanks to Verizon, I thought that it would be reasonable to have a list of the currently compatible ROMs. I see a lot of threads and questions about ROMs "not working" with Safestrap that turn out to be people trying to flash AOSP ROMs instead of compatible TouchWiz (TW) ROMs.

I suggested this to Kennyglass123, who wisely suggested that I put one together.

I started with the official list of TW ROMs, and then added some that I found. I first communicated with most of the devs for these ROMs, and created the list based on their responses.

If you are a dev and your ROM is Safestrap-compatible, and you want your ROM added to the list, please PM me.

SO, here is the current list, with this format for each line:

ROM name [author/maintainer] (notes/link)​

Safestrap-compatible ROMs

Bonestock v1.1.4 [andybones] (but only this version)

Eclipse S4 TW Edition v2.0 [nitroglycerine33] (4.2.2 version, not 4.3 yet)

Foxhound Diamond Dogs v3.6 [gigilie] (link)

Hyperdrive RLS13 [sbreen94] (link)

Jelly 'Beans' Build 7 [BeansTown106] (yes, for ME7)

Omega v19 [gigilie] (link)

Stock-Rooted-International MKF Base [jrkruse] (link)

PLEASE NOTE: I'm only reporting what people have told me. Please don't get upset with me if you're having trouble with a particular ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jogawa:
Here is a link to the Safestrap thread (link).

Having a ROOTED phone IS A REQUIREMENT for using Safestrap.

4.4.3 GPE ROM installed VIA Safestrap on my Verizon Samsung S4 i545 NC5.

I was able to get a fully functioning 4.4.3 GPE ROM installed VIA Safestrap on my Verizon Samsung S4 i545 NC5.

It takes a little bit of work because straight out the box there are issues with google apps and data not working. Some of my steps may not be necessary. The most important parts are the apns-conf as this made the phone and data work. Making SELinux permissive and of course the modules. Whether or not starting from stock made a difference I am not sure. I did it because I softbricked and had to restore with odin.

MAKE A BACKUP JUST IN CASE

This is how I did it.

1. I started with stock factory image of NC5. The no-wipe link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735172 and installed with odin. I then rooted with towelroot, installed supersu, busybox from playstore and Safestrap v3.75 recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2793891.

2. I copied apns-conf from the etc folder on my phone to my download folder(any folder on your phone easily accessable from a computer will work).

3. Plugged phone into computer and copied apns-conf to my computer

4. Downloaded 4.4.3 zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2767026 on to my computer

5. Download and install 7-zip http://www.7-zip.org/ on to my computer

6. On computer create an empty etc folder on your desktop and move apns-conf copied from phone in step 3 into this folder

7. Right click on the zip downloaded in step 4 and choose to open archive with 7-zip

8. In 7-zip open system folder. Open etc folder. Delete apns-conf.

9. Back up one directory so the system folder is open in 7-zip. Drag and drop the etc folder(from step 6 which contains the apns-conf from factory image) from your desktop into the system folder in 7-zip. This will add the apns-conf to the etc folder in the flashable zip. See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2163974 for more details

10. Copy this zip with the new apns-conf back to your external SD card on your phone

11. Reboot phone into safestrap. I used stock slot because the rom slots as the rom slots are not working. !!!WIPE!!! and flash zip copied to phone in step 10. Also be sure to flash NC5 modules for Wi-Fi http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2487298

12. Reboot from safestrap and continue to boot into the newly flashed ROM.

13. I then ran the towelroot.apk found at towelroot.com. Installed SELinuxModeChanger from playstore and set to permissive (without this chrome and playstore have issues and FC)

14. Data connected but showed 3g. After a reboot this cleared up on its own. Guessing it pulled the needed information from the APN file on reboot.

I have been using it for about a day.

Phone = Working

4g Data = Working

Wi-Fi = working

External SD card = Working

I have not found anything that is not working yet. There is a 4.4.4 update in the thread where I downloaded the ROM. Have not tried the update yet. Probably will eventually when I have time. Apparently you do have to start with 4.4.3 and then do the update to 4.4.4.
