[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TekMartian:
So Am i completely SOL? and yes, i did restore everything using the Nexus5 Toolkit.

I've already contacted sprint, they cant do anything, and i contacted google via email and told them but haven't yet received a reply.

What should i do? Start Another RMA? Send them the replacement they sent me back? If they put the MEID and IMEI on it i'm sure someone between google and LG could fix it, they're the ones who put it on it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
You're sol. As you now know you can't restore an efs partition from another phone
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabza:
Do an RMA, that's your best bet. They'll probably give it a new EFS or give you a new device entirely.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TekMartian:
i restored to stock, locked the bootloader, and removed the tampering files so there's no evidence of rooting, i'm just going to tell them it bottomed out when sprint was updating it, and try not to sound like i'm too technical so they just let me send the replacement back instead of my old phone, because everything except the speakers are working on my old phone, and i'll take that over no phone at all. i know it's not the most honest move, but this is the fifth nexus device i've bought, so i think my loyalty and my problem with my OG Nexus makes it at least a little better, not to mention that they could probably fix something like this in 5 minutes with $5 of labor, i'm not about to pay $400 for another device that bottomed out on me.

I'll make sure to let you guys know how everything goes, in case any of you have the same problem.

PS: google's customer service is pretty awesome now, literally as good if not better than apple's from personal experience.

yesterday i wanted to revert back to my official jb so i flashed ginger bread first and then the officilal jb through odin i flashed the pit file of 16gb with the jb although i flashed ginger bread of 8gb model.now my internal storage has shrunk to 3.91 gb.what to do now?i had the md5 of the official jb which i inserted in the boot loader option the the 16gb in the pit file option.Thanx in advance !
[General Questions and Answers] DafabHoid:
It would help to know what device you're using. But no matter what, I recommend to reflash your phone with the 16GB GB version and then look if this helps.

Obviously the 8GB GB Rom changed your partition table to match an 8GB device, what clearly is wrong. I assume the 16GB one will do the same, but just fitting for your 16GB phone (and then flashing JB should also work as expected).
[Java for Android App Development] abhatia2107:
I am thinking of making an app for android in which if I select a word in any other app in android phone then a strip come above it. In this strip there is a button named meaning if user click on this button, then its meaning come as a pop-up or in form of notification. These meaning will come from a database of dictionary which will be provided with app.

I just want to know how to change accessibility settings of phone so that if any word is selected anywhere in the phone, strip with meaning button come.

but for some reasons its not directly flashble from any other rom. it gets stuck on samsung logo.what to do now use the same file or look for another one?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
Yes, it is not flashable from recovery. You must use DOWNLOAD mode and ODIN.

Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gqp69v68WVU

This is for S2, but process is the same.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
It is flashable over JB. I used it 10 times at least this way I am explaining to you. :) JB over JB.

You just use PIT file for 16GB and after that format internal storage from settings of the phone.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ciaranhearne:
Hi,

I recently bought a USB OTG cable and an "Integral USB 2.0 Single Slot SD Reader " so that I could use my Nexus 7 to view photos from my camera.

At first I tried using Nexus Media Importer to view files on the device, but this did not work. I have successfully been able to use this application to mount a USB thumb drive via the USB OTG cable.

I then rooted the device and installed stickmount. This did not seem to work either and there were no signs that the device was recognised by the tablet (the red light did not come on). I configured stickmount in SuperSU so that it has root access. I did not copy any data or apps back onto the device after unlocking it, and I am using the stock android 4.4.2 ROM.

I tried mounting the SD card using the card reader and USB OTG cable with my Galaxy S2 running Cyanogenmod. This mounted as soon as I plugged it in so I doubt there is a problem with any of the components.

I have tried mounting the drive both with USB debugging enabled and disabled. Is there anything else that I can try?

Thanks,

Ciaran
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gnotelover97:
Reboot your device while keeping the OTG cable connected.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ciaranhearne:
Thanks, this does allow the drive to mount successfully; however, if I remove the drive then re-insert it it does not remount, nor does it show up in Stickmount. Is there a way to remount the drive on-demand - just like my Galaxy S2?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gnotelover97:
You can press the 'thanks' button if it helped. Till now, I have not come across any such method to mount the OTG cable on demand. It's a cheap ploy by Google and Asus that they do not allow native OTG support on the Nexus 7 2013. Just to promote the cloud services. Mounting OTG cable is so easy on the Moto G and Samsung devices. It's a given these days.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] charesa39:
It's gotta be the connections your using. Either the Integral SD Card Reader, or the OTG cable you are using. I never have any issues using stickmount with my Meenova MicroSD card reader. Have you tried other adapters?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mdamaged:
^This, stickmount mounts my meenova as well as my OTG+USB thumbdrives on demand, no issues whatsoever, no need to reboot or anything, it just automounts and it's ready to go.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiaL:
Hello, I own a TF300TG which mounts 4.2.1 android version, 10.6.2.11 fw.

I'm trying to root it with SRS root (eset32 detected it as trojan, btw) but it keeps failing.

VROOT doesn't even install on my PC (i don't know why, it's written in chinese).

how can I obtain root privileges?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f69m:
The easiest way is to unlock your bootloader, install a custom recovery like TWRP and then flash the SuperSU ZIP from that recovery.

Make sure you double-check that you picked the right recovery version for your bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiaL:
I've found some threads linking to twrp but the link shared in them refer to the tf300t, not tg. I mean this. Is it the same? I'm worried about bricking my device, because it isn't only mine :(

so where can I get the correct files to download for my tablet?

sorry if Iook like a noob but my phone was waaaaaayyyy easier to root...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f69m:
Yeah, it is tricky to pick the right recovery version with all those incompatible bootloaders and the new KitKat ROMs needing yet another one to flash properly.

There are other options for rooting, search for motochopper and similar tools, but personally I don't regard them as simple and some of them have been reported to contain malware.

To help you find the right recovery version, first need to know the version of your bootloader. You can find it at the top left of the bootloader screen. The interesting part are the numbers starting with 10. or 9. for really old ones. Then need to know, what ROM you want to root. Using stock Asus ROM?

You can safely use a recovery for TF300T; it is much more important to pick the right version for your bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xperiaL:
I've found this guide (-> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2617298) which seems pretty good, but the version reported working is WW_epad-10.6.2.10, while mine is 10.6.2.11-20131213

what do you suggest me to do? Go ahead and try it or hope one day a more specific version will be released?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f69m:
The guide looks good to me and should work fine for your boot loader.

Instead of the attached TWRP, you can safely use any TWRP for the TF300T, as long as it has -42 in the name. 2.6.0.0 might be a little buggy, not sure.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aalyasseri:

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Morlok8k:

[Networking] adkodobro:
I have next problem in developing app for android (Android studio, 4.0.3 kernel),

I communicate with my device over wifi. I need send from ever 20ms some bytes to my device. But I cannot send data more quickly like 100ms! When I use timer with 20ms period, system will send data in 100ms together. Setting timer to 200ms works, data sent ever 200ms. But In decreasing period to 20ms.

This is part of code:

// initialization of socket:

SocketAddress sockaddr = new InetSocketAddress(ip, parseInt(prt));

nsocket = new Socket();

//nsocket.setPerformancePreferences(0,1,2);

nsocket.setSendBufferSize(13);

nsocket.setTcpNoDelay(true);

// this is from timer, run every 20ms

nos = nsocket.getOutputStream();

nos.write(cmd);

nos.flush();

But android will send it with 100ms period! and together all bytes from every 30ms period of my timer

I think, it causes naggle algorithm. It's possible to switch it off. I found in documentation somethink about TCP_NODELAY, how can I use it? Is there any way how to send data to socket from android immediatelly?
[Networking] luckylui:
I believe if you use SQlite and go into the database. You can add TCP_NODELAY, with a value of 1.

http://m.pocketnow.com/2014/03/04/htc-one-android-4-4-2?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

While some versions of the phone have already received the HTC One Android 4.4.2 KitKat update (like the Google Play Edition, some US versions, as well as Indian and European variants), others are just now getting a notification that the firmware is available. This was the case with our UK unlocked HTC One the other day, and it looks like HTC is pulling the plug temporarily.

An official statement from the manufacturer says: “we are aware that a limited number of HTC users are experiencing difficulties with the KitKat update. As a result, all FOTA updates have been temporarily suspended. HTC is committed to providing customers with the best possible mobile experience and we are working hard to resolve the issue quickly“.

At the moment, there is no information regarding the so-called “difficulties” experienced by users, but both the unlocked, and carrier (Vodafone, O2, Three, and EE) variants of the phone have an “integration” status regarding the HTC One Android 4.4.2 KitKat update on the official page.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] skyfisker:
Hi there,

I'v got a verizon Xt912 and flashed it with official version 4.1.2. the phone restarts every 3min or 4min and wifi cant be activated. I tried 3rd version-the CM 4.4.2 (follow the steps) and still cant have wifi activated.

Now, I have two questions：

1. can anybody tell me is it normal the phone restarts with official version? is it a wifi hardware problem or just the andriond problem?

2. Can I downgrade the CM 4.4.2 back to 4.1.2 official version with a MOTO rsd method?

many thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] neo.ank:
1.) No, its not normal. For wifi, try to boot into recovery and 'fix permissions'. After that go to terminal and type

su
wifical.sh

2.) Yes, you can. If you used another ROM slot than the stock then you don't need to RSD. Just activate your stock slot.

If you flashed CM to the stock slot, you'll need RSD.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cortex69:
Yeah, but it doesn't state anything about unlocking bootloader. It's mostly about changing ROM. Also, Motorola claims warranty is voided after getting bootloader unlock key, not installing in ex. AOKP.

In conclusion, there's no real solution for that warranty thingy. If they would deny repairing unlocked phone, we could only apply under EU customer rights. Therefore, I'd rather buy 100F phone again than wait half a year til' case is resolved.

But yes, THERE IS A GREAT CHANCE :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0250:
The euorpean warranty isn't the Motorola warranty. I live in Belgium and i have 2 years of Motorola warranty for my moto g but too a european warranty. The european warranty is 2 years but after 6 month : " the seller can claim that the defect was caused by some action that was triggered by non-normal use of the device ". So you need a lawyer, after 6 month, for repair your phone. XD

Read it: "If your device becomes defective in the first 6 months, it is presumed that the defect was there all along, so you should not need to prove anything.

If your device becomes defective after the first 6 months, but before 2 years run out, you are still covered. The difference is only that if the defect arises now, the seller can claim that the defect was caused by some action that was triggered by non-normal use of the device4. But in order to avoid needing to repair or replace your device, the seller has to prove that your action caused5 the defect. It is generally recognised by courts that unless there is a sign of abuse of the device, the defect is there because the device was faulty from the beginning. That is just common sense, after all."
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajty:
Thats exactly why can Motorola afford to say,that your warranty is void after unlocking bootloader.People will buy a new phone rather than protect their rights.
