[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fuzzysb:
unfortunately i have looked through all the 8 pages of hits and there is not a case that is suitable. the nearest to what i want is a case made by sena http://www.senacases.com/cart/home.php?cat=413 however it itself has a magnetic clasp, so will most likely result in the same problem

I want a case like the original with same type of belt clip and without a magnetic clasp. Does anyone have or use such a case, or can confirm that the sena cases arent afflicted with the same problem.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kyphur:
Turn your phone over!!!

When you put the phone in the OEM case, have the screen facing your body (away from the magnetic clasp). This will accomplish 2 things:

1. Prevents the magnet from activating Landscape Mode.

2. Provide extra protection from direct impact for your screen.

I have always done this and never experienced the Landscape issue.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fuzzysb:
For me that doesnt work, infact it makes it worse i've just removed the phone like that from the case a few times and it change orientation every time. the magnet is contained in the flap and it triggers the screen change every time weather it brishes past the back or the front of the phone.

I have just bought the Krussell case from my first post after not succeeding finding an alternative, i think that with a belt clip it will be unsafe and will stick out much further than the original case, however it does have loops to loop belts through, so that may be the tradeoff i need.

I will let you know how i get on when i recieve the case next week.

what i am most surprised at is either HTC or the mobile carriers not picking up on the problem and selecting a different case.

but the one thing i have figured is that if the magnet is contained purely on the pouch and not the flap (i.e. the flap has metal in it) then this problem would not happen. and if i twisted the phone away from the case when removing it... and ...and ...and..... there would probably be lots of ways to get around it not happening, but in the real world in everyday use when i remove the phone it does happen and it causes me to miss lots of phone calls...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruwno:
Hi !

I have a problem with my HTC DHD device. I unlocked it and rooted it a long time ago, using goldcard, installed Rom Manager, flashed the recovery, install CM...and all of a sudden, my phone shutted down, and couldn't stop rebooting, got the green HTC logo, and he reboot.

I had this problem a few month ago, i tried several things, that put my phone back in S-ON.

I actually got this :

I can't access to recovery, and i can't boot on anything else than the HBOOT or FASTBOOT mode.

I tried to unlock from htc dev, but it says that i need to upgrade my HBOOT before using htcdev tool.

As i was back in S-ON mode, i tried severals RUU Roms.

As the getvar all says i'm actually running 2.50.405.2, so i tried to install a clean RUU using

RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.50.405.2_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_199042_signed

( Got a french HTC DESIRE HD )

I'd like to flash a new recovery to make everything ok again. But i'm stuck, there is no ruu working, and i can't unlock bootloader, nor reinstall a recovery

everytime i try to flash something into any directory, i got this signature failed error.

c:\Fastboot>fastboot flash /sdcard PD98IMG.zip
sending '/sdcard' (261908 KB)... OKAY [ 43.281s]

Can someone help me ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bondocel:
I might be wrong but I think you might need another ruu and a new goldcard
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruwno:
I tried different RUU versions, all above the actual one or at least the same version.

The thing is that i can't actually put it back on its original configuration. CID is normal though, i can't find the original recovery, i'd like to flash it, i think it's the only thing that remains modified on the phone.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bondocel:
I had the exact same problem as you have when i bought the phone. AAHK was working back then and even with aahk the phone could not be fixed and the with the help of the devs on irc chat i managed to fix it

They told me that my phone was previously rooted and s-off but a strange RUU was flashed so they told me to flash cwm through fasboot and flash a custom rom.

Wich i did and it worked.

P.S. you might wanna try another sd card, this one might be fried ( faulty mem blocks)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruwno:
Thanks for your answer, your previous problem exactly matches with mine. I'll try what you've said, the thing is that i'm actually not rooted, and S-ON, i can't use htcdev/unlockbootloader, because de version of my bootloader is too old ( i haven't used the phone for a while ) -

In fact :

- To solve my problem, like u said i have to flash CWM and a custom rom

- To flash a recovery, i need to unlock bootloader

- To unlock bootloader, i need to upgrade my bootloader

- To flash a ruu and upgrade my bootloader i need to have an original recovery

- Got a recovery problem i need another one, so let's flash CWM ( repeat everything )
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gussta:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace

1) conect phone to pc, run instalation ruu

2) during instalation process find in win/temp folder file named rom.zip

3) copy this file into folder with adb and fastboot files

4) cancel instalation

5) in phone run bootloader than fastboot

6) run command prompt in folder with adb, fastboot and rom files, than type "fastboot oem rebootRUU"

7) wait a few minute until phone goes in ruu install mode

8) than from command prompt type "fastboot flash zip room.zip", if you get error repeat once again without exiting ruu install mode (some times is needed to do it twice)

9) when install finish type "fastboot reboot" and now phone should be repaired :)

You can do factory reset before and after.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beckmill:
I have a Nook HD 7". Although it's brand-new, it's running Droid v2.2.0. I'd like to upgrade it to something a lot more current. However, I'm not a technical IT person, though I am a 30-year user of IT, PCs, etc. In fact, I make my living on a computer. I don't know if the folks who man the 'Nook Section' at a B&N Store help people like me, but would I be better offf asking the Nook person there to help me upgrade to Droid v4.X vs. trying to wade through some highly technical--but I'm sure point-on--directions from this Forum?

Thanks very much.

Go to the dummies guide linked in my signature. And it is Android, not Droid.

Thank you. I read that before I made my initial post. Here is what I propose: if you will e-mail me off-line (wmiller@beckmill.com), I'd like to set up a time to talk briefly w/you by telephone. I will then commit to

you to help me do what I read before I posted. Is that acceptable?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
No, I am not interested in that. If you need specific help with an item in the thread, I will try to help.

Maybe someone else is interested.

Edit: And stock B&N software is not antique Droid 2.2.0 (Droid is a model of phone by Motorola). It is Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). It has been heavily modified by B&N and given their version number 2.2.0.The latest version of Android is an experimental Android 4.4 (KitKat).
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beckmill:
Your point about Droid vs. Android is well-taken. I apologize. Good to know about KitKat. Thank you for that.

FWIW, I have seen Nook models on the web that claim to be running Android v4.X. That is what led me to the CM site first. I followed the instruction there to the letter and downloaded the requisite file--OneClick.apk. However, when I tried to install it, the Nook gave me this message: "This Nook cannot read this file. It may be an unsupported format." That's when I came here.

So now I'm scratching my head. I need expert help and am willing and able to pay for it. If anyone is interested in helping me, please either post your contact information or e-mail me directly at: wmiller@beckmill.com. - Warren Miller, CPA - Lexington, Virginia.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
I don't know what that oneclick.apk is, but it has nothing to do with installing CM on a Nook HD/HD+. Follow the dummies guide I referenced earlier.

EDIT: If you can't or don't want to put the effort into updating the device yourself, you can go to a commercial site like N2Acards.com and they will sell you a ready made SD with Android for Nook already set up for you.

I am not being able to access internet from my Nexus 7 2013. Chrome and Dolphin are all crashing and I am not being to open a single webpage. The browsers were fine before I had uninstalled the Xposed modules. I wanted to switch to ART, so I uninstalled the modules. Please help!!

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] datallboy:
By uninstalling xposed, did you just uninstall the apk or did you flash the xposed disabler? You need to flash it to make sure you have no problems.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] MO11:
Now after many of you guys who could have the tablet already were able to root and remove your bloat , so after rooting and being able to customize your tablet and DPI etc. how is it with the tablet going for you ? Would appreciate you sharing your experience so far

p.s ... this baby will cost a solid 1000$ in my country for LTE model .
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] muzzy996:
It's definitely more responsive after freezing a bunch of unnecessary (for me anyway) applications.

For me my primary reason for purchasing was for s-pen in a large form factor. Based on that I expected to just de-bloat and use stock s-pen applications. I have no interest in any other Android tablet at this time.

Question is sort of odd though; I wouldn't expect a lot of people to have gone through the hard decision of rooting such an expensive device and then say they felt it wasn't worth it.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] MO11:
well its not that odd bc its not just about the money etc its about the whole experience etc and what could you get out of the tablet with the more real estate and i have seen some people regretting buying it etc. am a junior architect and i was waiting for something that big to use it with the s-pen too .. in my place you wouldn't be able to resell the tablet if you didn't like it or didn't get what you expect from it etc even i watched many reviews about it and sounds pretty interesting the limitations around me makes me have some concerns thats it :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] muzzy996:
Right, my point is the "is it worth it" evaluation for a person who has rooted their device will have already occurred before rooting so of course you'll get more responses in the affirmative. I suppose it's not impossible that some will chime in to say that even after rooting it's unacceptable. ...perhaps odd is the wrong thing to say...just don't expect a majority of people who have rooted to tell you that they wish they hadn't.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] MO11:
I get your point and edited the post :) of course we all root to get more out of the tablet
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ad78:
the lag is the same! i remove some of the bloat and not freezing. and im using nova prime launcher.

i guess we need to wait for the dev to release some ROM

and by the way, why are you guys freezing your stuff when your knox is already tripped?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ExtremeRyno:
It's sometimes good to freeze (at least as a test-bed) because some apps no matter how innocuous they may seem could be an integrated part of the system. Removing them might break functionality within other apps or even the system itself. For example, on some systems if you remove the pre-installed file manager because you prefer another (Solid Explorer RULES!), it might break the Gallery app which could interfere with setting wallpapers even from other apps. That example - from my phone.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rkirmeier:
I want root to address the following things...

1. Remove multiwindow application restrictions

2. Use LMT or similar launcher for home, back, menu, etc.

3. Change the DPI (smaller icons, more real estate).

4. Backup/restore with Titanium Backup

5. freeze/remove system apps/bloat.

6. Install AOSP browser w/Flash
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] jackwagon06:
Rooting I noticed nothing different. I installed xposed and wanam to get the things I like. The main thing that changed was I lost the symbols on my keyboard. I can still get them by hitting the sym key, but can't long press the letter keys to get the symbol. It doesn't matter what language it's set to, they are not there.

Also, my video player developed an issue when it set to fullscreen. Lines through it and very choppy.

So I have un installed wanam and exposed, and video is normal, but still no symbols. Had them out of the box.

Thinking about Un rooting to see if it fixes the issue on the keyboard.

4.4 will not support flash I've experienced. Let us know if you get that working.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sthrnsprtsmn:
You can get symbols back in wanam in security hacks and check secure keyboard
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] jackwagon06:
I did try that with same results, I should have said that. I thought that would solve that too. With wanam and exposed uninstalled, I still can't get it back.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] KestrelX:
That's strange. I have Wanam installed and my keyboard is unchanged.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] jackwagon06:
Right.....I think it happened upon root. Didn't notice it right away. Root is the only thing left to try with out having to odin Stock and start again. I have removed wanam and still unable to get it back. Thanks for letting me know that it's possible with wanam though!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] sthrnsprtsmn:
Actually it's under system and enable keyboard symbols in wanam
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] jackwagon06:
Tried that as well. It should be enabled without wanam as well. As in Stock rooted. Not sure why I don't have it anymore

---------- Post added at 02:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 AM ----------

Update: I reinstalled xposed before I Un rooted, which I will not be doing. Installed the alternate keyboard symbols module, and they are back. I'll try wanam again, but leave the current module running.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Back to the rooted fun.

I bought this tablet from wally world, and I'm happy with it for $99. I bought a keyboard for it off of amazon for like $10.

I rooted it with this:

This is a RECENT manufacture, as some things apparently have changed.

1. Are there any custom roms at all for this? I can't seem to find any.

2. Is there any custom recoveries for this? I don't see a CWM.

[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Hey guys,

This thread is not about the camera taking photos with banding lines, instead about the actual display.

Does anyone have vertical banding lines most notorious when displaying a full grey screen in low brightness.

I've read the verge review and seems to have some banding as well, anyone as well? Thinking about replacing it for a third time.
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
Yes, I rarely get this issue. I captured a screen shot one day just in case, not sure how well it shows up, but look in the middle lower portion of the screen. Almost like a clock hand pointing at 6 o'clock.
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
Nevermind, it does not really show up in that pic. Sorry. But yes, I experiencing this issue. Mainly when I am in the settings menu, I think it based on the colors in there. I do not ever see it on my home screen or apps...at least my eye cannot perceive it.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
You can't take a screenshot to see the problem. Its a hardware issue therefore you can only use an externeal photo of the screen. Check on grey full color screen. I think I will not replace it, I may risk on another issue..
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
Yeah, I had not planned on replacing mine either. I so infrequently see it, and even when I do, it really does not impact anything. I was not aware it was a hardware issue, seems there could be a bug fix for problem then.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:

[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
Thanks for the link.

Its funny cause the band shows up in the screen shot on my phone, but probably because the conditions are right, not cause its actually in the pic.
[Moto X Q&A] kdog350:
Vertical lines are something you should replace your phone for. Horizontal lines like in the screenshot is just the banding of the colors and happens on every single stock android phone because it's apart of the software
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Could u check through a full grey background whether ur greyd are fully consistente? I mean there no faint lines whatsoever. Perhaps ur phone is the same as mine and u have not realized it given that it seems to be fairly normal with amoled displays
[Moto X Q&A] undergrad:
I was just about to post about this very issue. I created a quick image to show everyone what the issue is. The lines are not as drastic as I made them look, but it should give you the idea of what it looks like on the screen.
[Moto X Q&A] JustROLLIN:
No. That is not the issue we are speaking about. The issue we are referring to is VERTICAL and only appears on greyish/black screens, like the settings screen. The horizontal lines are normal for this phone.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Precisely. You can't really use self screenshots to see this problem I'm talking about. Its about the amoled itself having these vertical banding lines(canvas-like strokes). Open Facebook and tap the search button and tap on the search bar without actually writing any name. Tap down the keyboard. For me the deep blue background has the most prominent banding lines for me. I have one week to think whether I should replace it. If everybody actually have these lines and NOT a solid color on full greys or deep blue I won't replace it.

PS. TheVerge moto x review says that it also have some banding lines on grays. I'd be great if you guys could check ur screens like I just explained. Hope I explain it well

Damn amoled!
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
Someone with the problem should post a sample pic/screen shot so others can download it and attempt to see the problem.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Just download a color test app that makes ur whole screen of a determined color. Put it on grey and check whether ur whole Grey screen doesn't have any vertical line banding. In case it doesn't have any of these lines, please let me know.

If it does have banding, take a screenshot and see it on ur computer monitor and see how the Grey should be displayed(full solid grey without lines)
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
I don't care enough to install an app, checking out a screen shot is quick and easy.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Took a photo with my tablet. These are the lines im talking about.

Also use the screenshot so u can check whether u have the same problem.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
With the screen shot downloaded and displayed on my Moto X I can detect no banding of any kind. I tried it in dim and bright light. Screen brightness is set to auto so it did adjust with ambient light. Maybe I would see it if I manually cranked brightness to max.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Thank you, so my case is a defect, a third replacement will happen I guess. Great phone nevertheless.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
It is possible it is something that was fixed going from 4.2.2 to 4.4.x, seems unlikely though. I notice you are on 4.2.2. I am on 4.4.2.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Impossible, my issue is definetively not software related but hardware related. When I see this screen shot on an LCD based device like my PC monitor, no banding is present. After all the pointless investigation this issue is sometimes present on amoled devices like the galaxy nexus.
[Moto X Q&A] happyhour13:
Literally, after the first week of my moto x, the nav bar got burnt! This has to be a record for an amoled display. Im starting to miss my iphone lcd!
[Moto X Q&A] jamesino:
I am also experiencing these fuzzy, faint, horizontal, "canvassing" lines. Most noticeable when the screen brightness goes down.

I never noticed this on my old Galaxy S3, but now that I go back to it and scrutinize them side by side, I do notice a tiny bit of canvassing on the S3 too, but nowhere as strong as it is on the Moto X.
[Moto X Q&A] Emiliano55:
double post, delete.
[Moto X Q&A] Emiliano55:
I have the SAME vertical line as you, only that mine is just a bit on the right side, like between 5 and 6 oclock. You have it just under the 6 oclock. And yes, only noticeable with gray screens like the settings menu and also you can notice about it only when viewing the screen with no ambient light. If you have too much light in the ambient its impossible to view it.

I'm also having those fuzzy faint horizontal lines that are noticieable on whites and gray backgrounds. But then again, only noticieable with not much ambient light, and you have to look really close to the screen to notice them all around the screen.

I did my research of this (since I have this phone for 12 days already) and noticed its all normal on AMOLED panels (some may have lesser issues, some may have worst issues). Its just that people are not the same, and eyes are not the same. You have to be pretty obsessive and minimalist to notice these OLED issues.
