I agree, but I wouldn't be recommend a Charmer (though I had it) as it seems that (after a while in this forum) the number of users are limited. Go for a Wizard (if you like keyboard, but it seems that it gives problems), or a Prophet.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] oltp:
Maybe it's just the simple fact that T-Mobile (don't know about other operators) is selling the Wizard, but not the Charmers accounts for difference in the amount of users. It seems like a good device though.

Regards, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] hanmin:
It seems that MDA Compact 2 is the only Charmer around. If that

s the case, as with probability concept, chances of number of users on Charmer will be naturally smaller.

BTW, what do you mean by T-Mobile is selling the Wizard, not the Charmer?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] oltp:
Ok, apparently TMO is selling different devices in the world. Here in the Netherlands they sell the Wizard, Universal & one or two of the HTC smartphones.

Sorry my mistake, but if the MDA Compact II is the only one it won't be a large seller.

any body not intersted in ba plz i want to exchange my mini with a ba can anybody tell how well wm5 works on ba and 1 more thing does bluetooth on newer pdas like mini stins caz it it is tooooooooo slow in my case (maybe caz of ms stock)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] kdskamal:
I upgraded from magician to BA 2 months ago. interestingly, the VGA camera on BA is a lot better than magician's 1.3 M. Speed is same on both devices(magician uses more advanced pxa 272 while BA uses pxa 260). keyboard is ok(not great like universal though). Battery life is bad compared to magician. Wi-fi inclusion is great. BT is better too(widcomm)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] max414:
ok u helped a lot since ur a ba user can u share ur experience on wm5 for ba and alo the size compared to mini ...........and if u tell that it is costly than mini or not
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] kdskamal:
size-wise..its a mammoth, but, on the other hand, i can do a lot of work on it. On mini, the small screen prevented me from doing some serious work on it. eyes used to get tired easily(i am just 18 ). wm5 on BA is ok..tuma 1.4 has brought some problems, but, tuma 1.3 still works for many of the users.

i have reverted back to wm2003SE, because of speed(2003SE is like 40% faster than wm5), memory(128mb(ram)+44mb(storage)+13mb(ext rom)=185mb !!) compared to wm5 ba which has only 44+13 mb memory(which is still greater than universal, wizard)..he he

wm5 is good on BA, all-in-all
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] max414:
all info from u was quite helpful .....since u upgraded from mini can u tell it is expensive than mini or not and what if we compare this mamooth(ba) with new wm5 phones like universal and k jam .......not jamin caz it is tiny like jam
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] kdskamal:
Yes, it is ard $70-80 dollars expensive than mini. Universal has its own share of problems. But, it is completly different product IMHO. On the other hand, K-jam is not at all mammoth size. It just a bit too think(almost similar width as of universal). If you seek for similar size as that of mini, go in for jamin(imate) or Atom(o2)

so im having this problem...everything was fine until today.. i plugged my phone into my pc and it only charged it..it didnt recognize

im using original usb cable.. iv tried other usb cables

ticked and unticked usb debugging

factory reset.. cache and delvic clear

fix permissions

can someone give me a solution to this please
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkRoniN88:
Try cleaning the micro USB port with a toothbrush.

If it doesn't help, open the phone - it will give you better access to the port and clean it again.

If that also fails, replace the micro USB port, there are many videos on YouTube on how to do it. Piece of cake.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yousefageaz:
That happened to me and I solved it :)

just go to control panel on your pc and open (devices&printers)

then delete your devices data and installation

then your phone and let it reinstall again :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orbourne53:
found the solution

well i tried the toothbrush and whatever and it didnt work... it wasnt even picking up in device manager

anyway what i did... i borrowed one of my friend usb cable.. for his windows phone and plugged it in to my phone it had a firm fit.. anyway it solved the problem.. now i can use my original usb cable again with no problems

im thinking maybe it was a problem with the pins

Hi,

I think something is wrong with the inner compass of my S4...

things like google maps google sky or a compass app aren't working properly. if I use maps navigation while walking the blue arrow points to a different direction than which i'm walking, If i'm pointing Google sky on say the great bear it is way of and if i open a compass app and point my phone to north it reads south west.

is this an hardware flaw? or something i can recalibrate?

thanks for your help!

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] zpeverman:
As a filmmaker, I shoot several different types of videos. One thing I have been trying to do is find a cost efficient teleprompter. With so many inexpensive tablets on the market, using an Android app seems like the most logical solution to this problem. I have tried several apps so far but none of them seem to fit my needs 100%.

I am not a developer, I am a filmmaker. I do however, have spoke to a developer interested in helping me solve my problem by creating a app from the ground up that is design exactly how I want it to be with the functionality that it needs. Before embarking on this task I would like to get some feedback from other video professionals and app developers alike on things ranging from currently available apps, things that are wrong with currently available apps & features that would be included in The Perfect Teleprompter App.

I expect that there will be a lot of responses that say there are options currently available and that the need for yet another teleprompter app does not exist. That being said, unless I find an app that has an interface that I like, the functionality that I need and the peripherals to make it even better, I will probably continue to pursue this project. THE PURPOSE OF THIS THREAD is to allow other filmmakers to provide their input and thoughts about what the perfect teleprompter app would be.

Features I currently have in mind (This list will change as I receive feedback. ):

Clean, Usable Interface

Dropbox and Google Drive Access

In App Editing

Speed Control during prompting

Text Size Options

Light & Dark themes

Movable Location Arrow (An arrow on the side of the screen that allows you to move it vertically to show the target location of the line being read.)

Bluetooth connection so your phone could be used as a remote.

Wired remote option

Mirror Mode

Scroll to any part of the script and start it rolling from that location

Free, fully functional version (No Ads)

Custom app branding (change splash screen to display your companies logo)

I want this thread to be a way for all of us to collaborate and make an app that we all enjoy using. It is a big project for me to take on and because of that, I feel it would be silly to keep it all to myself. Please post any suggestions, questions, idea or concerns. My goal for this project is to finally provide a teleprompter that does exactly what we need it to do as a producers. Thank you for the help and feedback and hopefully together we can get this app launched for everyone to use.

Thank you so much,

I plan to root my 32 GB Motomaker GSM Unlocked/Tmobile Moto X by downgrading to 4.2.2.

To do that I need the 4.2.2. firmware, but I don't know which firmware to use as I know there is a Tmobile 16GB phone.

Which firmware do I use? Is the firmware labeled TMobile the same as the GSM unlocked?

[Moto X Q&A] Jayrod1980:
Stop stop. Don't do that. Just get the unlock code and unlock the boot loader. That way you can root and recover and not mess with exploits that can wreck your phone while the boot loader is locked.

If its unlocked you don't need to jump through those hoops. Simply flash twrp recovery and reboot system and it will install supersu.

[Moto X Q&A] Leetxjd:
Root Without Unlock

You are right. I don't want to unlock the boot loader because of the warranty issue.

Following the process - although lengthy - will root without voiding the warranty.

-LeeTxJD
[Moto X Q&A] Jayrod1980:
Catch 22 then... Because once you go 4.4.2 you won't be able to downgrade anyway. BTW, at least until recently, the phone comes with 4.2.2 and immediately updates to 4.4 so you shouldn't have to downgrade if you want to try all that. Here's the other thing you should know... You have 2 weeks to return of exchange the phone (30 days in California) from the day you got it. You unlock and root and do all that and find an issue you can return it regardless of have it replaced. I know because I had to do that... My moto maker x was also boot loader unlocked and I got my money back.

Its not all that likely you will get something wrong with the phone past the initial period but it's up to you. You are more likely to break the phone trying to root exploit than it breaking past 2 weeks out of warranty.
[Moto X Q&A] JoeSchmoe007:
What if my phone is Developer Edition (GSM) - will I be able to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2? I am willing to unlock bootloader and to root.
[Moto X Q&A] Groid:
If you take the OTA to 4.4.2 you get the 30.B4 bootloader. From what I've read, you cannot go back to an earlier bootloader and earlier system versions will brick if attempting to use them with the 30.B4 bootloader. So no, I don't think you can revert to anything earlier if you get to 4.4.2. At least this is my understanding.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmichaels1982:
I am confused in regard to two settings that I have noticed affects my idle battery drain significantly , even though my phone sleeps well with them on :

1- Google Wi-Fi & mobile location

2- and under advanced Wi-Fi settings: always allow scanning

I finally , after years of struggle with Android, have managed to achieve battery lives like people claim. My problem was Immense drain during idle time. My phone can never survive the say without the need for charging. Even when I am not touching.

After putting compulsion kernel and turning these two off, underclocking my cpu to 97 mhz and 2ghz on wheatley governor, my phone is sitting at 77 % 1 day and 3 hours idling . I left all services syncing on , including gvoice and whatsapp. I dont have facebook or twitter. It has also been on LTE this entire time and GPS on.

This is not really a battery stats thread.

My question is , Idle stats are really important to me, and i dont really understand the use for the above mentioned options and the difference between the two. Are they vital for anything at all ? can i leave them off al the time without any significant location deterioration ?

Thank you all !
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
<speculation>

#1 is only a grant of permission to collect location data from your handset - but not a power management control. It might mean that a small amount of additional data traffic occurs when either GPS or WiFi are already on - but doesn't affect *whether* those devices (WiFi and GPS) are powered up. So it applies at all times but is only meaningful when those devices are enabled by other means - either manually or automatically. Think of it as nothing other than a legal escape hatch for Google against privacy violation lawsuits.

#2 allows the *WiFi* hardware to be powered up for *reception* (probably with no indication that it is indeed dissipating power!) - but it won't try to associate and connect with any WiFi APs that you have set up. It is listening for beacons only*, and possibly band-hopping, if not channel hopping**. Think of it as "receive only WiFi"

It is my *guess* that #1 affects #2 - there shouldn't be any data collection if you have not allowed it so the #2 toggle state should not do anything if #1 is set to disable.

Having the WiFi radio in receive-only mode might not really use any noticeable amount of power for two reasons: 1st, because operating a radio in Rx mode only uses far less power than Tx mode, and 2nd because it is possible that when both #1 & #2 are enabled, the WiFi radio is only polled, rather than left on full-time. So, it's duty cycle might be extremely low.

</speculation>

None of the above speculation has been confirmed by me by looking at source code.

Whether or not this is important to you depends on your need for high precision location information. Parents that snoop on their kids' handset locations might want that WiFi listener stuff turned on - GPS does not work indoors in many locations.

HTH

* note that the geolocation databases (that map WiFi AP MAC addresses/SSIDs to lat/lon) are on Google servers, not on your phone - so this implies that there must be a way to get the data to Google even if the WiFi is "pseudo-off: receiving but not transmitting". Presumably this would then happen via the Mobile Data radio (LTE/CDMA/1xRTT)... which - perversely - would use even more power than a WiFi connection (for the same data).

**WiFi APs are supposed to broadcast their beacons on all channels (the beacon packet tells the STAs what the correct channel they should "talk" to the AP on). So it might be necessary to band-hop the receiver to account for single band APs, even if it is not strictly necessary to channel-hop within a band to observe available beacons. In any event, bear in mind that power usage by WiFi chips that are never transmitting is far lower than when transmission by the WiFi radio is also occuring.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolio85:
Hi, after 12 hours of bricking and unbricking my phone and forgetting to save TA partition I have successfully got my phone working again with the custom ROM installed and semi working.

The main reason I wanted it was to get my camera working on 20MP with superior auto. However when I have taken photos on superior auto I am getting 8MP photos instead of 20MP. When installing the ROM I did choose th 20MP mod and have seen the mod is there via the security app but still struggle to get the camera to take 20MP on auto.

I would have liked to post this message in the correct post in the iHackers thread but the forum would rather I spam 10 posts before they allow me to post in there... Strange if you ask me as I do not have time to spam 10 posts, I would however stick around after this problem is resolved as I have just got into Android phones after finally leaving apple... :S

Does anyone else have the Z1 with this ROM and having the same issue?

PS. I forgot to save the TA partition like a NOOB! BUT every app is working fine except Wisepilot for Xperia, which installs but has asked me to pay for the features I am supposed to already have. I suspect this is due to the missing DRM files.

I know there is no way to get DRM back but what if I sent the phone to Sony and asked to pay to get them back, is that a possibility?

To recap:

1: How to get 20MP on superior auto...

2. Wisepilot for Xperia, does it work for free on this ROM?

3. Will Sony fix DRM for cash? If not, is there a way around this? Insurance?

Thanks.

20MP Camera mod is a module in Xposed. You should install (pre-install in iHacker) and activate Xposed Framework.Then, activate camera module. It works for me. I guess it works for you too as I am having Z1 with iHacker ROM and iHacker Kernel as well.

Hope this helps

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] comepiedraverde:
Hi,

I posted this on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=49978192

as I was utterly ignored (probably my fault) I am reposting here, hopefuly is both the right place and it gets the right visibility.

--->

I am sure if this relates to this post, but as I unlocked the phone using this method I hope someone else can help.

I follow the steps listed here to unlock the phone and I am using it with NET10 in USA. My SPH-L720 has a NET10 card in it and I am connected to their network (No LTE, but the internet is still fast enough). I also changed the method listed here to change the phone number listed on settings ##MLS# and enter the number on both fields.

At this point everything works on the phone except for a really annoying detail.

Every call I get (and these are local US calls, not international) has a + (plus sign) at the front.

this is triggering two problems

1- the number shown on the caller id of the incoming call does not always match a number on my phone book. This is a problem as I don't know who is calling.

2- if I dial back, to call the number who called me, the call does not go through.

Now, if I go to the address book I can call any saved number.

The SIMM card i put on this S4 came from a Galaxy S2, which was working perfectly (not having these issues) - (I had to cut it to make it a micro)

At this point the only solution I have found is to use a program called Prefixer (apk) which will change the first character of every outgoing call to a +1. This of course will force me to edit every number on my phonebook and add the + (as otherwise prefixer will be changing any "first" character into a +1). I do have a lot of numbers

I wonder if someone can come up with a solution which does not involve something like this.

I hope the issue is understood, it has taken me three days to explain it to the NET10 team, and all they always asked was if I needed to make an international call (retards) :/

Thanks for all the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] comepiedraverde:
This is my work around so far, but I wish I could find a native solution to the problem

1- I exported all my contacts from google and fixed all the number in my address book only to include area code and number (no other symbols or spaces, etc) as in 305765342

2 downloaded: Prefixer from 253°Below (sorry I am new, can't post links) :(

I programmed two incoming and two outgoing rules using regular expressions to remove the + and +1 in front of numbers

The only annoying thing is that that app vibrates and provides a notification everytime one of the rules is triggered.

I wonder if anyone has a better idea on how to fix this. :p
