it depends on what u are meaning by "not recognised" but I assume that windows dosesn't even try to recognise the device (I mean that there aren't bubbles, notifications, or any other changes on the system) for the cracked software, well if u have installed it right into any RAM folder (not in the storage memory) then u can tell the repairing center that ur unit simply doesn't power on correctly.. :wink:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] dagonist:
sucess there is a god, i found out why the comuter is not recognizing the device for some reason it only detects the modem part of the ppc but if u uninstall the modem from the pc it will then recognise it as a unknown device the n the flasher will load. the only problem i face is now it is up and running it seems to of forgot it is a phone and will not connect to any network at all. hmm any ideas
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] afn691:
Please note...

Please note that Paragon Penreader language extender is in some cases for WCE 2003se and this may cause the problem in booting. (This is what also happened to me and had to flash ROM)

I suppose the rest of the thread is answered, as it's some years old, but there's no problem to repeat that when flashing the official ROM you'll not see the PPC as a recognized device attached to the PC. You must set the PPC in bootloading mode and launching in the PC the installer, FOLLOWING ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS of the screen.

It's recommended that you have your battery full and the { energy savings + screensaver } in the PC switch off.

(I think this is a stupid collaboration in such a place like this one where only some of us are low-level users but hope this will help to somebody)
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
For rooted users and non-rooted users, but rooted users have the advantage here as they can use 3rd party apps like bloat freezers and titanium backup.

I don't recommend deleting system apps permanently from the system due to the fact that if you accidentally uninstal an important system app it could create system force closes ect.. But if you freeze the apps you don't want then you can always de-freeze them whenever you want and it's very safe :) and could be handy at times.

So here's the list of apps which are Safe to Freeze/Disable​

Note-

>when you turn off sync it will not sync your contacts with google so i don't recommend it but if you want, you can do it and then do backups manually

​

A FULL LIST OF ALL THE APPS YOU CAN FREEZE ON STOCK 4.3 IS NOW ADDED IN THE ATTACHMENTS (BELOW THIS POST)

Real screenshots from my phone. The last picture is the ram usage after the freezing. (this was right after i flashed the stock rom and frozen the apps. so this could change depending on your rom setup :)
[Galaxy Note II General] nitol:
Thanks for a detail thread, but why are you saying the music.apk(music player) is a bloatware? Rest all at the list are fine. But if all the 'allshare' files are removed, then 'screen mirroring' (on n3 moded rom) will not work. Could you please add some more explanation about removing which file may stop other things to work?

Thank you so much again for the effort.

Regards.
[Galaxy Note II General] wesamothman:
Thx mate.

Also removing all share apps will cause wifi direct not to work
[Galaxy Note II General] nitol:
Thanks,...and not only removing bloatwares/greenifying some apps, some more guidelines should be added, like-

- turn motion off

- display brightness always auto

- use blackish/dark wallpaper

- sync always off, turn on when needed

- don't use vibration

- don't clear memory/ram from task manager

- do battery calibration in proper way after flashing a rom

- avoid widgets, cause every widget has service(s) always running in background

...some more, can't remember right now.

And it should be universal, recommendation for specific rom is contradictory with the purpose of the thread.

Regards.
[Galaxy Note II General] chobztopz:
music.apk/music2.apk is for google play music. you can remove it or move (install) to data/app, or install form play store to save more ram.
[Galaxy Note II General] nitol:
On KitKAT google play music is 'music2.apk' not music.apk. these things should be described. And I know these remove/freeze/move/install things mate ☺.

Regards.
[Galaxy Note II General] chobztopz:
sorry mate, just try to help, i think there is no music.apk in 4.3 + (if Im not mistaken) music2.apk upgraded music.apk version.

yes, the op should describe, not only link it to another thread. i totally agree with you [MENTION=1997844]nitol[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note II General] silentvisitor:
Hi,

Thanks for guide and help but I wonder what usability of device will be left if all these apps are frozen. I guess my approach is little better (you may check my signature) ;)
[Galaxy Note II General] hoaxdream:
He said freeze/disable not remove. :D anyway nice guide but need some specification.
[Galaxy Note II General] nitol:
Lol...mate, whose approach is bad here, all appreciates this, see my first post.

Regards.
[Galaxy Note II General] geekynoob:
Some one LIKES me as well..!!!

AAh..! I am touched.. :p
[Galaxy Note II General] silentvisitor:
So you are able to use specific apps/features with their apps disabled/frozen ?? Well, I guess nobody can.

I wasn't talking about comparison. I meant by being "safer". There's gonna be many who would just freeze/disable all these and flood various threads that "this app/feature is not working" or "that stopped working" like WiFi Direct, DLNA, Email, Weather, etc. I meant by that.
[Galaxy Note II General] hoaxdream:
ofc not, my point is, if your app is frozen, you can defrost if you need to use it, unlike removing your app, which is totally removed permanently. i think you can clearly understand now lol
[Galaxy Note II General] dekela:
After your done.. paint the phone blue and throw it to the ocean and go get your self a Nokia 3120. :)
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
Well for your 1st point :)

not everyone use the stock Music player on their devices right .. including me .. and that's the reason why i named music.apk as a bloat so u can keep it freezed where it won't run in background as it does :)

And the all share files and screen mirror, not everyone use those features also right? i mean it's not like we use those features daily. so why give ram to that when we can just keep it frozen and de-freeze it when we actually use it ? :)

Same goes with wifi direct if u ask me :)

just de-freeze it when you wnna use it so that way we have more ram and can get a good battery life ultimately

it doesn't take much time to defreeze few apps right so it's a small price to pay in order to get a good battery life with more free ram.

well it might be just the way i see it. but it's working pretty good for me.. hope it does for you all .. that's why i shared this :)
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
As i replied to nitrol, we don't use wifi direct like every day and that's why i said it's ok to freeze it to get some more Juice :)

just de-freeze it when u wanna wifi direct and that's it .. it costs some time but that's worth it i guess when compared with the battery an ram u save . :) that's just the way i see i guess
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
added to the main thread :)
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
don't freeze everything i've mentioned here, just freeze what you don't use. You can guess what app you're freezing when you read the name :) , if you don't know what the app is when you read the name it's just a system fine that we don't use or don't need so just freeze and see what happens but i assure no force closes or any other errors will come, but if any errors pop .. just de-freeze the frozen apps and see. :) You will get a good battery life and more free ram after freezing these apps.

-regard
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
hahah yes, Your rom is awesome. loved it cause of all the less bloat and stability + BATTERY LIFEEE

waiting for your stock 4.4 rom with low bloat as much as possible

recommended to many people

keep up the great work :)
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
Exactly what i'm talking about :)

you can de-freeze anytime you want :D

thumbs up
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
Did Not expect so many of you to pay attention to my post but thank you for the feedback

I appreciate it very much and i will explain further details and make it more detailed when i have time. I'm having exams soon and kind of stuck with that.
[Galaxy Note II General] chandoliasnikos:
+1.

Just charge your phones more often everyone. That's why they are called smartphones, otherwise get yourself a dumphone.
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
That's why i didn't mention the black wallpaper and stop sync plus vibration but there might be some who would be willing to do those stuff so that's also possible.

BTW- in my screenshot where i have 1 day and 2 hours of phone usage , that was while running a live wallpaper + messenger+ whatsapp + Vibration ON + SYNC on .. so yeah it's okay to run apps we like and keep some setting we like and if you really know what you're doing you can get the best out of the beast :)
[Galaxy Note II General] colosocool:
Dude

I have a noob question...

1. Is better the vibration or the sound for the best and long battery life?

2. Is better use data/network gps or NATIVE gps for a long battery life?, thanks!!

Please QUOTE my question.

have a nice day :p
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
Answers (LOL)

1> Vibrations seems to use more battery than Speaker (Sound) so if you keep sound and turn off vibration itshould give some extra battery life

2> Network GPS use very little battery when compared with Native GPS. (my network gps is always ON, only GPS satellite connection is OFF )

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Druffbold:
Hi,

at first i try to post in the related thread, but i havn't enough posts to do this.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/rom-beta-t2535996

After flashing the latest ROM my phone can't get a network connection. Wifi works. I used CWM 6.0.4.7, SlimKat Build 3.6 and the latest gapps from SlimRom (Build 3). I can't receive baseband, network, phone number or IMEI in the settings. All is unknown. Also when the phone starts, it doesn't ask for my PIN.

Re-install doesn't work. Another SIM doesn't work, too. CM 10.1.3 works fine.

Model: GT-I9305

Provider: Vodafone

Baseband: I9305XXUEMK1

Some ideas?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Hbohd:
That is not a rom problem, for sure.. What can I say, you are doing everything right, but I might recommend using Philz recovery, I've never had any problem with it. Reboot recovery, full wipe and then flash :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Andr3y29:
Try to flash with Odin latest stock 4.3 kernel and then try again with wiping everything before.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Druffbold:
Hey guys,

thanks for your advices. I wasn't at home, so I couldn't response or even try it.

Today I flashed the new SlimKat 3.8 (still with CWM) and it works :) Maybe it was a problem with the ROM.

Thanks anyway :good:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Jovke:
For sure it was problem with ROM. Actually with radio ROM, not the Android itself.

Make a backup of your ROM and save radio image from it.

Then you can flash some other ROM you like and flash this working radio image after that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
I did the KitKat update yesterday. I'm stock, S-OFF with FireWater and rooted (verified by RootChecker). I made the change ro.build.type=dev in /system/build.prop. The change remained over reboot. I also have developer options enabled. I dialed ##778#, as listed in the FAQ, but nothing happens. I've used ##778# to change the PRL on my EVO 4G LTE, but I actually never tried it on the ONE to see if it worked prior to the KitKat update. ##3282# will bring up EPST and prompt for MSL if "Edit" is chosen, but the menus that come up don't seem to have any options to change PRL.

Any suggestions on what to do? Is there anything else that needs to be changed? Cache wipe or something?? I did a lot fooling around on the EVO 4G LTE before I got the PRL change to work, including installing an EPST.apk at one point, but I don't know if that acutally did anything. I think my issues were due to initially being S-ON with hboot 2.09, and fixed when I went to S-OFF.

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
From what I can tell ##778# does not work on stock no matter what changes you make (changing from user to dev or flashing the modded EPST) I have tried, never got it to work on stock.

There is a modded EPST.apk floating around the general section that will work on a custom rom if you change the ro.build=dev
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
Is that your experience as well on the EVO 4G LTE? I am stock on the EVO 4G LTE, and did manage to get it to work there.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
I just updated my Evo 4G LTE to 4.3 last week and it would not work on a stock rom.

Something changed with both devices once they hit 4.3 (no longer able to use ##778# on stock)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
Thanks for the update. I haven't done the 4.3 stock update yet on my EVO 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
Would the CDMA workshop method for changing PRL work on the stock 4.4.2? If there's a reasonable chance it should, I can round up the files and give it a try...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
I could never get the drivers to install...so not sure

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
From Device Manager (and I was doing this on XP), it looks like the HTC diagnostic port has a Device ID of USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FAB&MI_03. I found several versions of posted HTC diagnostic drivers, and checked the .inf file with the driver, but none of them supported a "model" matching this device ID (in particular, the bolded part). IT looks like a newer set of diagnostic drivers is needed...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
Just for reference, I tried both of the EPST zips in that post with the stock ROM, but neither of them worked.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
how are u installing on a stock ROM? it does work...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
Copy KK_EPST.zip to sdcard

Boot to TWRP, press "Install", and select KK_EPST.zip

After install completes, press "Wipe Cache/Dalvik"

Reboot
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbhtexas:
I believe there is a solution to the problem of getting diagnostic drivers installed for the ONE. My wife has the ONE at work, so I can't test that right now, but I played around a bit with my EVO 4G LTE, for which I also previously could not get the diagnostic drivers installed. I added a line to the [Models] section of the driver's htcdiag.inf file that matched the Device ID obtained from Device Manager as described in my post above. This allowed the diagnostic driver to install, and I was able to access the EVO 4G LTE, and successfully send the MSL from CDMA Workshop. That's all I had time for this morning.

Again, this testing was done on the EVO 4G LTE, but since it seems that this driver is just installing some kind of USB serial port, it seems reasonable that it should work with the ONE as well; I will try the ONE tonight and report back.

I have spent hours on here reading and looking.. Everything seems to be outdated or questionable. I'm sorry if this is something I should of been able to find. I've looked.. Just send me to a link if you need to.

Questions:

If I root the phone will it be carrier unlocked?

If not.. What do I need to do to get it carrier unlocked?

What I've already done.

Unlocked the boot loader with HTCDEV.

HTC seems to be more so complicated than most. Sorry.

Neither rooting nor unlocking the bootloader will unlock the SIM card. That needs to be done separately. I've never used it, but I think AAHK2 does unlock the SIM.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miller1323:
My Xperia Sp brought on contract from EE was working fine until earlier this week. The phone had 30% charge left when the phone shutdown. When i went to turn it back on, the phone vibrated three times and nothing happened. I tried plugging the phone into the mains and charging but the phone kept vibrating in a series of three vibrations. I tried the common answer to any problem with this phone and held the power off button at the back in and pressed the on button but this didn't work. I have also tried other combos such as the one Sony emailed me which was to hold power up followed by the on button but this did not work. The next day the phone magically turned on and i used this as an opportunity to back up my data off the internal memory and re-flash the stock android 4.3(12.1.A.0.266). The phone lasted a couple of hours but then did the same as before and kept vibrating. I left the phone a bit and when i got it to power on again, i flashed android 4.1.2 (12.0.A.2.245) onto the phone. The phone worked for only an hour before shutting down again and not turning on. I have tried various shops in my town, the first said they think it is software but they couldn't fix it, the second said it is a battery issue but they would have to order in a new battery and I also tried EE who refused to even look at it as my contract didn't come with warranty. Sony have emailed me back asking me to send it off to them, but i have no proof of purchase so that is out of the question. I have also searched Google for hours trying to find a solution but the only on that sounded remotely like my issue was apparently a sleep problem, but this is clearly not the case. I would really appreciate any help anyone can give to me about this issue. Thanks in advance to any help given:)
