Hi there!

Seeing as the price of SD cards has now become very very nice indeed, and that I now need a card for my business partner's PPC I was wondering if the 2GB 150x card from Transcend works nicely when running TomTom. I currently have the 1GB 80x card (Xda2i) and this functions flawlessly for me. My business partner also has an Xda2i and an Exec.

I can pick up the 2GB card for £38.78 inc. free delivery and the 1GB card is £23.50 inc. free delivery.

Are there any known problems/issues with using the 2GB cards? should I just stick to the 1GB cards as I know they 'work'?!

Any advice/feedback greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Dennis! West London UK!!

I have the 2GB Transcend 150x card. It works fine with XDA 2i and Tomtom. No complaints.

Just bought my Transcend 2GB 150X SD two weeks ago.

Currently I'm on Asian ROM stock from the box.

All I'm experiencing is some lag in reading data for the Album program.

Other than that everything's fine.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoboo:
Hi, i have some questions about my I9500, currently running stock Android 4.2.2 with the possibility of upgrading it to 4.3 via OTA. No Root.

1) I would like to sim unlock it, so i read lots of threads and i am really confused right now. If I try the method in this thread, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2282683 i get the following error, 'MENU NOT EXIST Current Command is 111'. I think that thats because i have an upgraded version of the modem so what should i do?

2)I am planning to root my phone but i would like to upgrade my phone to 4.3, so what about Knox and root counters and all that stuff? Every thread about this is related to the I9505 variant.

I am really a noob :eek:

Thank you!!

I have the same problem Gt-9500 region locked and UMTS Limited so apparently service model unlock method doesn't work for me, the phone is korea manufactured bought in Colombia, any luck with rooting the phone and using the region unlock apk?? Help needed desperately :confused::confused:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Osmodiar:
Having the same problem with I9500 from Argentina. I was able to root, install TWRP, remove Knox, but not sim unlock.

Probably using a custom rom will unlock the sim. I've done this in the past with Movistar Samsung Tab2 GT-5100 and GT-3100. But for my s4 I prefer keeping default rom (for the moment).

[Q] Can you turn an AT&T variant S3 into a Bell or Rogers S3 with a Rom/Modem/Kernel?

I have an AT&T Galaxy S3 that I would like to install a stock Bell or Rogers rom on. The hardware seems to be the same model so I expected this to be straightforward.

I actually already tried with the stock ROM using ODIN but it fails. It didn't write anything to the phone but the ODIN command fails when using a Bell stock ROM in tar format.

I was able to root and install custom recovery on it but I could not find how to make this look/act like a Bell Galaxy S3.

[Java for Android App Development] CrotaNexus:
What? Do you want the Android 4.4 like an application? At best, you can download a theme or launcher that provide a graphics such as KitKat but you can not have all the features of KK into an application. Otherwise, you can install a Custom ROM like CyanogenMod. This is the better solution.
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
I think he means to get the current API level programmatically xD. You should try Build.VERSION.SDK_INT if I remember correctly. You can get the exact names with the static constants in Build.VERSION_CODES, see here.

Hi

Many forum uses are asking for a place for sharing their rules, actions and conditions with other rules.

In this way we can keep the original forum just for questions, suggestions, etc

Lets go¡¡
[Android Apps and Games] Michael B.N.:
Great idea with this thread. I'll start:

I prefer to have my phone on silent during the night but I would also like to receive calls from e.g. closely related family members. So I've created two rules: The first one says 'a person calls you from number 111' or 'a person calls you from number 222' or 'a person calls you from number 333' etc.

The second rule says that if the 'time is from 22.00 to 07.00' and 'speaker is off' and 'rule number 1 is matched' then the speaker mode must be switched to vibrate. Then I receive calls from important contacts if something urgent happens while I'm sleeping.
[Android Apps and Games] mortalkombat4:
My rules to save battery

1. Phone Unlock data on

Trigger: Lock status off and Mobile data connection status disabled

Action: Mobile data connection status enabled delay 10 seconds no repeat

2. Phone lock data off

Trigger: Lock status on and Mobile data connection status enabled

Action: Mobile data connection status disabled delay 20 seconds no repeat
[Android Apps and Games] tfarmstrong:
Concentration

If I want to focus on work without distractions:

Condition: Device is facing down.

Actions: Wifi off, data off, silent, screen timeout 1 sec.

then the reverse when condition is not met.

So I can put the phone down and concentrate! :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ads2996:
Hi,

I am in the process of completely wiping my phone and starting from scratch and thought it would be a good time to try out a few diffrent roms. My plan was to keep the stock rom that came with my phone and install the latest stock rom alongside it. So i would have 4.1.2 (carrier rom) and 4.3 (latest stock rom). Then i discovered that you can dual boot ubuntu os and android and was wondering if anyone had tried this and if so how well it runs. Or if anyone has any better suggestions for a second rom for my s3,

Thanks in advance.

Phone: Alcatel One touch POP 5036x

PC OS: Windows 8.1

Hello, I am Nick from Holland and I am 13 years old. My first post is a request for help, for which I apologize.

I recently bought my second mobile phone, which is my first smartphone/android device.

Quickly after I purchased it, I decided to root the apparatus and got into sudo-ing and that kind of stuff.

Now my phone is in a boot loop and I am unable to recover from it.

I have been searching and reading this forum for days now, and I just cannot figure out what to do.

I' m having trouble finding the right files ( Stock image, CWM and such ) for my particular model.

What happened before this mess:

I installed an anti-theft program called ' Prey'

To see how this worked, I flagged my device as missing. Nothing happened though, so I reverted its status to OK.

Later on I decided to delete some bloatware, and eventually I accidentally erased a file called ' Android System' or something like that.

I am not 100% sure about this particular name though, but I do know it sounded important.

My phone froze during the deletion process and I decided to take the battery out and do a reset.

Phone OFF

Power + Volume up

wipe cache partition

wipe data/factory reset

After which I ended up[ in this boot loop.

The phone boots past the android logo, and restarts during the blue Alcatel POP-C5 animation.

To make things worse, I looked in the ' Prey Control panel, and noticed my phone was still flagged as missing.

I remember I read something, somewhere about a security measure that involves being unable to simply remove Prey

by resetting the phone to its factory defaults.

My current status:

I installed the necessary USB drivers on my Windows 8.1 machine, and I am able to connect to my phone using ADB.

I am able to reboot into fastboot. (

ADB reboot-bootloader

)

I am able to transfer files and such using ADB

I have collected and properly configured the paths within windows to use the command line and downloaded (I think) all the necessary software. like Flash Tool, MTK Droid, the Android SDK, etc.

fastboot devices

resolves mt6572v1_phone fastboot

Some discrepancies:

adb devices

resolves the following data:

List of devices attached

0123456789ABCDEF sideload

Notice 1-to-9 and A-to-F. This seems weird to me.

get-state

and

get-devseria

l both resolve 'unknown'

Is there anyone willing/able to help me resolve my issues?

In return I can eventually make a new tutorial or Alcatel OT-5036x recovery thread.

I will try pulling the debug info and produce a logfile later on and upload them to my Google Drive.

Regards,
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
You mention cwm.

Don't you have a backup?

Try google translating this thread: http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/carliv-recovery-cwm-6-0-4-4-pop-c5-et-x-pop-t81752.html
[General Questions and Answers] p011i3:
I thank you for your kind answer.

No, I do not have a backup prior to my problem.

I have one now though, before things get worse.

I actually made some progress - I managed to correctly install and boot CWM.

I already stumbled upon and downloaded the files mentioned in your link.

The teXt translates as:

-put mobileuncle tools and recovery on your SD

mobileuncle-install and granted him the rights superSU

-click recovery update

-then recovery.img

clicked OK

-then it will ask to restart a recovery click OK

I downloaded the file called ' recovery.img' but I am unsure how to transfer it to my device and implement it.

Also, how do I install and run mobileuncle without being able to boot?

Regards,

Were do I find these for my Alcatel 5036x?

I searched for like four days without any definitive result.
[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:
Either try:

fastboot oem unlock

Or talk to the manufacturer.

They should actually provide source code since it is an android/linux OS.

Once you try these things we will move forward.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
This is wrong. They are not required to provide the source code for the OS. Only the kernel is licensed under the gpl. The rest is closed sourced.

You will need to track down the default software for the device. Which maybe hard if not impossible as clone devices/MTK devices are based out of China and few if any have any after market support.

Search it on www.SamMobile.com......U may get ur stock rom and firmware on it

PS C:\Windows\system32> fastboot oem unlock
...

And it just hangs there. (Tried 3 times and waited ~10minutes each.)

The cause of this is that I made things worse - yesterday I formatted the /system partition using CWM.

I did make a backup using Android Toolkiot first though, but again I am unsure how to recover it.

Also, I downloaded the files mentioned in the French I briefly discussed above.

I consists of almost all files listed in Flash Tool, except MOBILE_INFO, CACHE and USERDATA

The Alcatel Source code is hosted at Sourceforge under project name ' Alcatel'

You are probably right. However, Alcatel actually does provide source code. See the ' Open Source' link at the bottom of the Alcatel website.

It is hosted at Sourceforge. Project name:: ' Alcatel'

I downloaded the the tar.gz archive earlier this week and extracted it, but I have no idea how to use this.

I am somewhat familiar with Linux though. I could set something up if I need to.

I searched for ' 5036x' : " No entries found."
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
I did look at it and it is the part of the source code for the kernel and that's it

[General Questions and Answers] Lgrootnoob:

@p011i3 Hey, what version of android do you have.

YOu might be able to make a flashable zip if you have a working system img.

Or we could make a false cwm backup and just restore system only from that.
[General Questions and Answers] p011i3:
I managed to fully recover my Alcatel One Touch POP C5 5036X without having a backup for my own. I did this by formatting the entire device using Flash Tool and downloading the files from the French Website discussed earlier in this thread.

I'll post a 5036X recovery topic including all files later this weekend.

Again, I thank everyone for their kind help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nehpets11:
Hi,

I see a few people have run into the endless white HTC boot screen problem and it seems the fix is to just run the RUU again - this isn't working for me. I came from 100% stock with the latest OTA and everything. I've applied the RUU more than 10 times at this point from different computers, it's always successful and the most frustrating part is that the RUU can read the proper version from my phone (it says "upgrade from 4.13.651.3 to 4.13.651.3").

I also tried to go back to 3.15.651.16 with the RUU, but it stops with an hboot incompatible error.

Any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Have you tried just rebooting phone when it gets stuck, I've had a few roms stick on splash and after a minute or so I just force a reboot. I know it sounds odd but that's what I've always done rather then reflash the rom and after a reboot or 2 it comes up. You can also try holding volume down on the splash, it forces the rom to boot in safe mode.

Sorry I thought you mean after ruu instead of during. You can try reinstalling htc drivers and connecting it in fastboot first, it will force windows to install the drivers that might otherwise not install. Also viperuu has been said to work with the new hboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Have you tried running the update files as PJ75IMG.zip files from an external SD card? It'll require running the RUU .exe file until it opens to the first screen with the device icon on it. Then navigating to your OS temp folder (usually by clicking "Run" and typing %TEMP% to open the folder). Then you find the newest folder and inside one of them will be some rom_01 and rom_02 zip files. Those are what you need. Those can be renamed to PJ75IMG.zip, placed on external SD card and flashed through HBOOT. Hopefully doing them that way will get them to apply correctly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nehpets11:
Thanks for the replies, I appreciate the help!

You were correct, it was after the ruu runs successfully that the white HTC screen sticks. I tried the multiple reboots, but still no luck.

I got the files, but sorry, I'm a little unsure of which one to rename to PJ75IMG.zip or what order to flash them in.

I also spoke with HTC support for a while, but that didn't really help other than them promising that the "Special Projects" team would call me in the next 7-10 days...

I was perfectly fine with it wiping my data as 99% of it is in the cloud anyway, but I certainly didn't expect the official update to put my phone into this state.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
They are numbered, aren't they? Do 01 first, then 02. They will both get flashed the exact same way.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nehpets11:
Thanks! I was not aware of that trick. Doing that led me down the path of seeing one of the images was corrupt. From there I did what I should have started with, I downloaded the RUU from HTC again. I got a file with the same byte size but a different MD5 signature. This file took much longer to run and successfully updated my phone!

The winning MD5 for those keeping track at home was: c6ac16fcdd39818f43158329ebdad957

Shame on me for not trying this as one of the first items, but shame on HTC for not validating their own images before pushing the update to the phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gunfromsako:
Well at least you got it to run...lol I have the same MD5 and it wont run past the first screen. All other RUU's i have on my pc run just fine so im at a loss.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
OK, I just followed links thru 3 diff of capns threads. Isn't there still a way to change partitions (properly) just doing it as a PJ75 zip, or is PC now required? As my access to one is limited and sketchy. Sorry for not keeping up better, been trying to maintain 3 devices, work full time and parent. And keep up with game of thrones. Lol. Either way, my apologies for not being as current as I usually am, and thanks yo any who respond.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Hey, what's up, Scott? Yes, there are PJ75IMG.ZIPs floating around. I think that Yankees has a link in his thread. If you still have a hard time finding everything, I can upload mine and send you a PM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
If you have both files, why would you need to run the RUU at all, for starting purposes? Couldn't you just run both PJ75 zips and have nothing to do with .exe/PC?

And what should flash first, the ROM or FW (and yes, I know, capn, they're numbered,...that's NOT the answer I'm looking for, I'm trying to find answer that actually means something, as I'm trying to make sure I understand this process.)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
The purpose of running the RUU.exe is to extract the zip files. If you already have them, then you are correct, you have no need of running it.

I thought this was explained in my thread that has the firmware update, but maybe it isn't. The first zip is just the firmware which repartitions the device for the new layout, and the second zip is the actual ROM. The first zip and my firmware zip are essentially the same. That's why I have it listed as being required in order to flash the new format ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gokart2:
Been awhile with this device. Sold it via Swappa. Customer cannot connect to Sprint network. Found that after she tries activating it she'd needs to reflash the RUU via a bunch of reading. She doesn't have a Win PC. So, this is my option I guess. So after pulling the 2 ROM files via the RUU, rename the 01 file to PJ75IMG.zip, placed on external SD card and flash through HBOOT....what is the process exactly in hboot? I don't remember. Thought you booted to hboot and it automatically finds and flashes? Then....do you power down/reboot/can you access sd remotely while in hboot to rename 02 file to PJ75IMG.zip, and flash? Thanks for any input. It's hard cause I don't have the device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Once the phone gets to HBOOT, you have to press one of the Volume buttons to confirm the flash. Once the flash of the first zip is complete (and while the phone is still in HBOOT), you'll need to pop out the SD card and rename the second zip, replacing the first zip on the root of the SD card, and pop it back in (while still in HBOOT). Then press whatever volume key it says to reboot, while holding Volume Down, to get back into HBOOT to flash the second zip. Once that flash completes, you can press whatever volume key reboots the device and it should be back to full stock.
