[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] HORiZUN:
If you're referring to an MDL bootloader, then yes, it's worth more... To the right buyer. Some people (most) want the latest ota from the carrier. It depends on who you are marketing the device to. Many people know nothing of flashing, rooting, etc.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
If I was looking for an s4 I'd pay a little more for one with mdl, I'm not. But keep in mind, anyone who wants something they can rom easily knows there's the nexus 5 and you can get a 32Gb for $400.

Anybody have the list or know how to get the installation files for softwares installed after a hard reset / rom installation in Eten M600 ppc?

I have a problem running WM5Storage with rom 215 and 216, but was ok with 213. Based on someone's suggestion, I soft reset the device after hard reset and just before auto installation of softwares (after the screen alignment process). And then install and run WM5Storage and it works!

So, I'd like to track down which software conflicts with WM5Storage, and also Softick Card Export.

Thanks.

A bit confused here, I think what you are looking for is the programs in your `Ext Rom`. Do search (on this forum) to see how to extract / unlock this ext rom for your device.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] NoNameProvided:
Today my tablet had been frozen and not react to anything. (It was in idle state, I try to turn on the screen, but it remain black) I decided to restart my tablet, but now it struck at the Google logo.

I tried to wipe cache with no success ( imgur.com/QfDObvr)

I tried to make a factory reset with no success. (imgur.com/Wg4Y5sp )

(I am not friendly with android development, but I try to flash a new stock image on it with the guidance of this article:

blog.laptopmag.com/how-to-hard-reset-a-bricked-nexus-7-with-your-pc

But it failed at the adb erase commands because them cant reach the partition too.

The problem look like is the system can not access the cache and other drives, my question is it a hardware error or software error?

Any help appreciated! Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] oldsoldier2003:
Make sure you have adb and fastboot working.

download proper image from here:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

extract the tgz to your computer and navigate to the folder.

plugin phone and put it in fastboot mode

from a terminal run flash-all.bat (if windows) or flash-all.sh (if Linux)

you can edit flash-all to remove the -w if you don't want to wipe your user data.

I'm on LS980. I've taken Deodexed LGSettings.apk, and attempted to Decompile (worked.) but when I try to recompile, even without making any changes, I get errors. Not sure what the error is, aside from something in the /values folder. Anyone know how to get around this? I really want to invert LGSettings for Sprint users, but it seems like it wont be do-able until I can recompile.

That's the log I'm getting.
[G2 General] AyDee:
The beginning of the log seems to be cut off...

I havent looked into rom theming for G2 yet, do you need to load a framework file to get system apks to compile right?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldubs:
Hey all -

I'm heading to Turks and Caicos on holiday next week. Is the easiest way to avoid US roaming fees to grab a local (I believe it's Digicel) SIM card when I get down there, pop mine out and pop that in?

Sorry if this is newbish, this is my first T-Mo and first GSM phone (longtime VZW customer)...

Thanks very much in advance!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipTD:
- T-Mobile now has free worldwide unlimited data roaming, but it's 2g, and you would still be roaming as far as phone calls, and charged between 50 cents and 1 dollar per minute.

-You can use any local prepaid gsm sim to pay less for calls and to have 3g data.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldubs:
I don't think it covers every single country?

I was told $2.39 per minute for calls. Trying to avoid that. Adding the $10/mo international unlimited doesn't seem to help...

Thoughts?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipTD:
Actually, you're right, it's not every country, but it is over 100.

Wow! 2.39 is absurd. Well, that's why you should go for the local sim.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Worbit Jiminage:
Hey guys I'm having a little problem with my GT-i9505. Problem being that I cannot get any reception on my device. It first occurred when I flashed a 4.3 rom over my 4.4.2 rom. I've tried switching to several different roms, both 4.3 and 4.4, yet none can fix the problem. I've tried to flash at least a dozen modem's in a bid to fix it. I searched for the modem suitable to my device and yet they still didn't work. I even tried to just install the official Samsung 4.4.2 rom via Odin, yet I'm still having the same problem. My baseband does change whenever I flash a new modem, but I still cant get a signal. When I try to search for a network in settings it lists the main carriers in the UK, but when I try to select mine (3 UK) it doesn't allow me to register, clicking select automatically yields the same results too. I've been searching for hours today on how to fix this, but just can't seem to find a method that helps. Any suggestions?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amasiam:
How I repaired my S4

Take your S4 to a repair shop. Use Phil,s recovery when you re-root, install Omega ROM or another Samsung based ROM and, using Philz Touch 6 recovery, make a copy of your EFS file so if / when it happens again you can reinstall Omega or whichever ROM you installed and, using Philz recovery, you can reinstall your EFS file.

To make the backup, reboot recovery - backup and restore - custom backup - x (only in efs backup) - start custom backup - choose where to put the backup.

I use Omega as a reference because I know it will not screw up your EFS file.

I tried to flash the a stock rom via odin but it kept saying it fails...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Flash a factory stock ROM image. You will need to know what build you're on to know what factory image to flash.

Well, that's interesting.

Consider telling us what build you started with, what ROM you were trying to flash, and what the failure was. There's way too many things you could have done wrong for anyone to guess what failed.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] gooroo:
Okay, the nice people over at PDAHut kindly sent me their new HTC Universal in car mount. I have now had a couple of weeks to really put it to the test so here is my verdict and before you ask, nope, I don't work for them.

On opening the package I was initially quite impressed. Manufactured in Germany, the finish of the plastic components were of a very good quality, no sharp edges, the texture and colour are a very close match to the Universal from O2 (the Exec). The part that grips the Universal itself is a simple spring design. The back edge has 3 small lips that over hang the device but still allow you to open and close the screen. The front is help by two more clips that are also sprung by flexing the plastic. It holds the device quite snugly and only really showed a problem when holding the Universal vertically in landscape, The weight of the Universal caused to it to creep down, spreading the two front sprung clips and allowing the back three clips to work loose. Saying that it never did fall out, even with the serious speed bumps in our street. The cradle has all the usual cut aways for standby, SD, headphones, reset, mini USB, Phone keys, speakers, volume, camera, voice and backlight keys. Even the IR and camera lens are clear. There is a small sticker fixed to the holder warning the user against opening the screen 180 degrees. I tried it and when I did the screen acted as a lever and forced the back of the Universal out of the holder. Adjustment is via twin axis swivel near the base, both with knurled thumb screws to lock it in place. After this there is a telescopic section that clicks into place as it is extended and retracted. Lastly is a full ball joint allowing you to rotate the device from portrait to landscape, again with a locking thumb screw to secure it in position. The suction base did not come off once in the 2 weeks I have used it and the all the thumb screws stayed tight. They also supplied a sticky back cup if you wanted to fix it to a textured surface.

So, overall, a lovely piece of kit and in my humble opinion well worth the money PDAhut are asking for it!

Hi, I'm looking at getting some sort of mount for my Uni, how do you think this compares with another I was looking at at http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9714064603&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1 ??

This one has a built in speaker and mic to enhance the onboard versions, the only downside is that the Uni stays in reverse clam position, you can't close and open normally, but I don't see that of much of a problem...

Would appreciate others opinions, esp if anyone has any of them, or similar....

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] fatman11111:
I bought one too

Hi, newbie here - just bought one of those units to run the TOM TOM from.

Now I have had a real strange one....

There is a little switch on the side which switches from GPS unit charging to XDA charging, trouble is after about 1/2 hour smoke started to appear from the back of the speaker mounting. Then the charging (red) light went out. I disconnected it all and let it and me cool down.

Anyway I thought the unit must have gone awol so I tried it again later and the red light comes back on but as soon as the XDA goes in the cradle (with it disconnected when I insert it) and then connect it, it still wont charge.

So today I bought a cigar lighter charger for the XDA and tried that and it also didnt charge the XDA - this was for the i-mate in an Orange store. So it looks like I need to visit the O2 shop.

I thought jeez the charging circuit has gone in the XDA, so when I got home I plugged it in to the wall charger and hey presto it worked?!?! So I am somewhat confused unless the Cigar lighter in the car is doing something bizzarre I'm stumped any thoughts?

Cheers

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] fatman11111:
also....I dont recall it having a mic either, the LED is red on mine - moot point....when yopu connect the speaker cable to the XDA you cut off the Mic from the phone so you have a mic for incoming calls (bit poor really).

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] jmdrizen:
Yeah, that's the one that I posted at the top, do you think it's better than the first? I'm in two minds about which one of the two to get... It's got a mic... but don't know if I like the idea of it slotting in, rubbing paintwork, scratching after a while....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] guinevere:
Yep I was worried about the same this with the one which has the mic too.

I am actuallt considering the brodit one more so at the moment.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] gooroo:
Yep, it's very simple although takes a little practice to do it with one hand. If you look at the photo's at the top, you simply pull the two sprung catches at the bottom apart and the Universal slips down by about 10mm allowing the top clips to clear the Universal and so allowing you to simply lift it out.

In car charging

Hi fatman11111,

I have had my XDA Exec for a few months now & have always had a problem with charging in the car, sometimes it would and others it wouldn't.

I even bought another in car charger as I thought it was faulty.

Just today I have found that if I plug my XDA in then power it up it charges. If I switch on first, it doesn't.

And I assume the infographic you're talking about is:

http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/197junfgsk0sapng.png

Try saying "go to work" instead of just "work." Seemed to create the proper event for me doing it that way.

What I said exactly: "create calendar event go to work on monday at 9am to 5pm"

If you want the description to just be "Work," you'll have to edit that manually. As far as I know, there is no way to force Google to have a different interpretation, it's likely coded to use things like "home" and "work" as locations.
