[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ixdankd:
Hi,

I'm really confused right now. If i slide the Bass Boost slider to the right, it reduces bass instead of boosting it.

Scenario 1: Decent bass:

Scenario 2: Massive bass:

Scenario 3: Sissy bass:

What is going on? Is this expected behavior?

Sub question 1: What are the best eq settings for nexus 5 according to you guys?

Sub question 2: What is the best alternative for Google Music App for nexus 5?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DATRUTH141:
Honestly the best thing you can do is install viper4android. Best audio mod out there period! Been using it since I got the phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topgeardave:
V4A hits your battery hard when listening to music. That's why I just use dspmanager

I don't wanna root my phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
This is repeatable? Can you try with the eEQ sliders at 0db? Also Surround seems to enable itself so keep it off or the same for your testing.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidSolstice:
The built-in EQ is utter crap and has always been.

I'm not sure why you don't want to root, but you're missing out if you haven't used Viper.
[HTC One S] stger102:
Hey guys. I was trying to root my HTC One S and upgrade it when I dont know what I did, it suddenly wouldnt turn on. I think I deleted maybe the Operating System. Anyhow I was trying again to reboot it through the Safe Mode (holding the power button and the volume down key together) but nothing would do it. It simply wont start up. Is there any way I could turn it on again? Load the OS?

Please help.
[HTC One S] f_u_006:
Charge your phone for two hours and it will start.

Now you can use your safe mode or bootloader to load a new firmware, You can Google the instructions and firmware.

Hit like if this helped you.
[HTC One S] stger102:
Hey, I connected it on the computer. I can enter safe mode now. But it says Tempered and Relocked. I tried all the options but nothing seems to work. And the pc doesnt find the sd card. I dont know how I can reload it or restart it. Can you help me? I am also a non-technical guy, So I really suck on this. =/
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
You have erased the OS.

Please do these and let me know

1. enter bootloader

2. select recovery

Have you downloaded any custom rom yet.

Btw your phone is not dead :)
[HTC One S] stger102:
was wnlowsi

When recovery is selected it is in FASTBOOT USB

And the options

REBOOT

REBOOT BOOTLOADER

POWER DOWN

are there.

Nothing of them does anything instead of reboot bootloader which goes back to the other menu where i selected recovery.
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
have you installed any custom recovery through fastboot usb?
[HTC One S] stger102:
To be honest I dont know what I did. =( I just followed different post on the internet.

It doesnt even show sd card on the pc.
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
It wont show your SDCard cos your phone is in bootloader mode and cant go to normal mode.

So, let's get your phone up and running once again. Follow these instructions exactly if you want your phone back alive.

1. type here everything you see when you go to bootloader cos i want to confirm if you are having s3 or s4

[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
GOOD!! Means you can still install a recovery via PC and a ROM later.

Do you have the fastboot files on your PC still?

Since you have relocked, you need to unlock once again in order to install a recovery.
[HTC One S] stger102:
I bet you think I am stupid or something. Which I mean I am. But now. =/ I have nothing. I deleted them. =<
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
If you dont have download and extract the Fastboot_ADB.zip to your C:\ or D:\

and then download this recovery

[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Nope i dont think you are stupid. Happen to me the first time i unlocked my One S, i deleted my whole OS and i panicked. Trick is to keep cool and read from this forum and not from the internet. ;)
[HTC One S] stger102:
So I downloaded an img file and the zip folder. Now? =)
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
extract the Fastboot_ADB.zip and go inside that folder till you see the files

Hold down SHIFT key and Right click inside that folder to open up Command Prompt. Btw keep your phone connected to PC and Fastboot USB as you have done before

Run this command

fastboot getvar cid

and tell me the results

[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Good, just made sure your device is from germany. So lemme check if i can find the RUU for your device for germany. Since your HBOOT is still Ice Cream Sandwich we need to find an ICS RUU.
[HTC One S] stger102:
Ok. I did download the app. But I have no idea what to do afterwards in order to unlock it. =/
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Just do the part shown in number 1. from top to bottom.
[HTC One S] stger102:
Done part one. =)
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
So does your bootloader say its unlocked?

If so proceed to do Part 2. and install TWRP
[HTC One S] stger102:
It's gonna take a while because the file is too big to download. =)

Are you gonna still stay in touch?
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
It should be just 6-10mb. Yeah i will be in touch. Btw you already downloaded a recovery from the link i gave remember. Thats a TWRP too, you can flash it by choosing CUSTOM RECOVERY option in part 2.
[HTC One S] stger102:
I just pressed TWRP from Part 2 and I was able to mount the SD card. (which btw has nothing in it.)

Also the file I am downloading is a .zip. Do I only have to copy the zip folders files in the sd card?

and then what?
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Whoa! Are you downloading a custom rom man :) Hehe.

I was gonna recommend to download this rom so that you have sense back. You can cancel that and download this instead cos this way you can get back the phone alive and this would be a learning experience ;)

I am attaching the boot.img for this rom

Are you downloading this btw?

Also after you install the ROM you would need to flash the boot.img as well. Each ROM has a different boot.img

Btw congrats, i think now you can manage.
[HTC One S] stger102:
Thank you. I mean not without you. I am downloading the one from the link you've sent me.

Plus. I didnt get what to do. I mean I didnt quite understand your message after the link. =p
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Okay good.

You need to download this also. This is BOOT.IMG which is a needed file

http://d-h.st/YOZ

I am writing what to do next.

Btw we are almost done, just two more steps :)
[HTC One S] stger102:
Perfect.

Both downloaded. =)
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Good.

Transfer the large ROM zip file to SD card via TWRP Mount USB option. Remember to safely remove USB from PC before disconnecting
[HTC One S] stger102:
Did it. And what shall I do next? Shall I disconnect from pc?
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Installing ROM

---------- Post added at 02:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 AM ----------

Yes disconnect from PC. And

STEP 1

Installing ROM

1. In TWRP, choose WIPE and just slide to Factory Reset. Don't use advanced wipe

2. Press back and in TWRP menu, choose INSTALL and choose the ROM file you put in SD card. Accept to install

3. When AROMA installer always choose default options for CPU or any other One S related option

4. When installer finished, reboot and go to bootloader, dont boot into phone yet as it may not start well.

---------- Post added at 02:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 AM ----------

---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 AM ----------

STEP 2

Now to install the boot.img

1. After you have finished installing the ROM zip file, reboot the phone to bootloader

2. Choose FASTBOOT

3. Connect phone to PC, "FASTBOOT USB" will show up in bootloader

4. In PC, go inside the extracted "Boot.img_Flash_Script_Viper" folder

5. Run the "flash-boot-windows.bat" file as you are using Windows

6. Have patience and wait till the progress on top right corner completes.

7. If above step is taking too long, run bat file again as in step 5

8. After boot.img is done, go into recovery and in TWRP once again do a simple WIPE as you did before.

9. Reboot phone and have patience :)
[HTC One S] stger102:
I've entered the whole zip folder in the sd card.

Shall I extract it?

When I go to install I seem to get like a bunch of folders to choose something from... where do i go?
[HTC One S] stger102:
found it. =)
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
Haha. I was thinking i should have told you not to extract. Yes you dont have to extract the zip file.

After installation finishes dont' reboot phone in normal reboot. Instead follow these steps

Now to install the boot.img

1. After you have finished installing the ROM zip file, reboot the phone to bootloader

2. Choose FASTBOOT

3. Connect phone to PC, "FASTBOOT USB" will show up in bootloader

4. In PC, go inside the extracted "Boot.img_Flash_Script_Viper" folder

5. Run the "flash-boot-windows.bat" file as you are using Windows

6. Have patience and wait till the progress on top right corner completes.

7. If above step is taking too long, run bat file again as in step 5

8. After boot.img is done, go into recovery and in TWRP once again do a simple WIPE as you did before.

9. Reboot phone and have patience
[HTC One S] stger102:
Oh MY God. It works. It's amazing.... =)

THAAAAAANK YOU So much.

I dont know what to do to thank you. =)

P.S.: is there any chance i can totally restore it to it's old factory settings without the venom stuff in it?
[HTC One S] ayyu3m:
You can press the thankx button just man. Ah! Finally i can catch up on sleep ;)

Thank you for using this community. ayyu3m signing off ;)

PS: Yes you can get rid of the venom stuff, but my idea was to give you the experience to flash roms and also recover your phone for you.

You can search this forum (the ONE S section only and not the One S C2 section) for custom roms.

Check Modaco website also as they may have an ICS stock flashable rom. Will give you some pointers later. ;)

Thankx. Have a nice day

PS: here you go

But you can check the second link in the previous post, look for a rom called trickdroid (ICS)

Just built a desktop without a wifi/bluetooth card. Used to use Andromouse (and its later iterations) all the time with my Note 2 back when I used a gaming laptopn as my primary machine, wondering if there is a solution for LG G2.

If the only way is a bluetooth dongle, anyone have suggestions beyond this one:

Also, realistically, you think its just worth it to suck it up, buy and install an Intel WiFi card?

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] LowaEastSide:
it sad to say but its the truth, when it comes to the Tab 3 7" T211 theres NO Development out, I have held off for awhile but just couldn't take the lags on the gaming aspect of it. so I sold it and purchased the Galaxy tab 3 8" T311 Version, and I'm not looking back, this device (T311) is awesome, I dont understand why the Tab 3 7" T211 doesn't come with 4.2.2 out the box like the T311, the T311 is much smoother and a lot less laggy so the gaming is great. Plus theres ALOT of development which is very important to me. I just figured to put my 2 cents out there. The best of luck to all the ppl still stuck with the T211, I got out of that situation QUICKLY... :cyclops:
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] angel4rent:
I might do the same. :(
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] LowaEastSide:
Yes you SHOULD

The reason i say this is simple. Most of these Devs do there Research Before they go out and buy there devices (something I should have Done), I know they seen the specs and viewed the videos out on the 7" version, IT SUCKSSSS...!!! I wish i would have seen the reviews before purchasing it my self, however we live and we learn, there isn't any development because the majority of devs stood clear of this particular device, because it SUCKSSSS. I was lucky to not have lost out on my t211, i TWEAKED it a bit and installed unlimited tethering and hooked it up to get Paid Apps and Movies for free, this is why i got a bit more than what i paid for it , thats when i went out and bought the T311, I highly recommend it...!!! The best of luck to you Buddy...

:laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] calden74:
The entire Tab 3 line just isn't worth it. I am actually flabbergasted at those who defend their purchases, awe stricken-ed even. Unfortunately, I also made the mistake of grabbing one do to a horrible recommendation from a sales rep at Best Buy, I bought the 10.1 version. It turned out to be the biggest hunk of junk I have ever had the misfortune of owning, antiquated resolution, laggy as all hell, only 300MB of free memory for apps upon a clean reboot(that is just disgusting and frankly uber cheap of Samsung to have not added an additional 1GB of ram for a 300 dollar tablet ) , scratches if you breath on it, yeah I returned it and bought a Nexus 10, freaking awesome tablet, 10x faster across the board and it cheaper.

I know the 7 inch model costs only 150 bucks but for 50 to 80 dollars more you can get a real tablet that is sooooo much faster like; Kindle 7 HDX (there is a fantastic AOSP ROM available), it has a Qualcomm 800 CPU, 2GB RAM, HDMI out and 1920 x 1200 resolution, Nexus 7 also with a Qualcommo CPU, 2GB of RAM awesome Android experience since it doesn't contain any of that Touchwiz bloatware and 1080P resolution, EVGA Note 7, Tegra 4 CPU, active digitizer, HDMI out and also has pure android (this tablet is perfect for those who love to game, just connect a Bluetooth game-pad to it and then to your TV via the HDMI, friggen insanely fast console machine), HP Slate 7 Extreme, also a Tegra 4 CPU, fantastic build quality and the best part, it only costs 180 dollars.

So if you buy the Samsung Tab 3 7 instead of any of the better tablets I listed above there is something really wrong with you. Even if money is an issue you can't tell me you can't find at least an additional 30 dollars for the HP.

I'm sorry for the troll tone of my post but I am just so tired of Samsung trying to shove these crappy sub-par tablets down our throats, especially at the prices their asking, what's even more insulting is that the Tab series hasn't seen much improvement since their introduction, inexcusable.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Nonta72:
So Gaming on this tab is just a HELL !

Right ?

OMG !

I was going to sell one of my beast (the Note 8.0) for money reasons (I need some quick cashes right now :p ) and buy the SM-T210

What do you suggest for me ?

On this thread a guy said Gaming on Tab 3 7.0 was NOT so harmful. He was able to play Asphalt 8 on HIGH Graphics, can you confirm please (OP) ?

Your Tab 3 8" can NOT run better than Tab 3 10.1 since your Tab 3 8.0 have a Exynos Dual CPU w/ Mali-400MP4 (4 Cores GPU) 1,5GB RAM

While Tab 3 10.1 have an Intel x86 CPU which runs 30% faster than the ARM based Exynos Dual !

Intel Z2560 is an i586 or x86 while Exynos Dual is an ARM based CPU.

Mali-400PM4 should perform better than PowerVR SGX544MP2 (w/ 2 Cores and found on Tab 3 10.1). Btw, the performance of the Mali-400 GPU w/ 4Cores is NOT as much as better than the PowerVR SGX544 w/ only 2 Cores.

The Tab 3 10.1 Scores approximately 30,000 Antutu score ! (even better than the S4 which scores approximatelty 28,000 to 29,000) :D

While the Tab 3 8.0 scores approximately 10,000 points in Antutu test.

By the way, Antutu and Quadrant doesn't prove the Real performance about the device PERFORMANCE :)

If the Tab 3 10.1 had at least 1,5GB RAM it would the FASTEST device released yet !

The crucial thing is the 32 Bits arch CPU of Tab 3 10.1 vs an ARM arch CPU on the Tab 3 8.0

With this CPU, the Tab 3 10.1 perform even better than Note 8.0 and Note 10.1 :D

You can hate it, You can say everything you want, Tab 3 10.1 perform slightly better than most of devices (only Note 3 and Tegra 4/Tegra K1 devices can pass).
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] calden74:
Skip the 7" Tab 3, you will only punish yourself. Buy the HP 7 Extreme, it's a Tegra 4, pretty much the fastest CPU & GPU combo you can get right now for gaming and it only costs 30 dollars more than the Tab 3, plus your not stuck with that horrid resolution. The build quality is also much, much better. The Tab 3 7" is just a cheap piece of crap. don't even consider it, in fact, run, run away as fast as you can.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Nonta72:
No development for this device !

Have you seen any forum for this device here on XDA ?

Not sure if it does exist because I found NONE :D

So that's firstly very important !

A device w/o Custom ROM can NOT spend 2 days w/ me since I randomnly flash ROMS :p

Rooting this device is itself a PAIN in the ASS !

So this is NOT the perfect one for me.

Maybe the Tab 3 8.0 but I am NOT going to buy an unknown device (at least unknown for XDA Community).

Thx anyway for your suggest !

[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Nonta72:
What do you mean by Tab 2 8" ?

You keep saying Tab 2 8" ! While this device desn't exist at all ! Maybe Note 8.0 or Tab 3 8.0 :D

For info, the Nexus 10 have an Exynos Dual (Exynos 5250) which perform 50% better than Excynos Dual 4212 !

Mali-604 GPU is just a Beast (I admit it) and is 50% better than Mali-400MP4 and PowerVR SGX544 w/ 3 Cores.

Don't forget, the Nexus 10 use a Google stock OS (like CM) while Tab 3 10.1 use a Samsung TouchWizz ROM. The full system package of Nexus 10 should NOT be bigger than 400MB while Samsung firmwares always exeed 500MB.

Nexus 10 have 2GB while Tab 3 10.1 have only 1 !

Mali-T604 is the Fastest GPU after Adreno 330, Mali-T628, nVidia ULP GeForce Tegra 4 and Tegra K1.

So don't Compare this to a PowerVR SGX544 !

Cortex-A15 is a HIGH-END feature after Krait.

All these just prove, that the Nexus should perform slightly better than Tab 3 10.1 in Gaming.

You right, I always call it 8", it's actually 7.7" http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/mobile/7.7/spec.html. I know the specs of the two 10.1 tablets, why am I spending more for the Tab 3 10.1 then the Nexus 10, especially when one is clearly much, much better than the other. I just think that Samsung is cheating it's customers with Tab 3 series and I can't recommend it to anyone, especially when there are clearly better models out there. Oh and because of the poor memory issue with the Tab 3 the Nexus wipes the floor with it when it comes to gaming, I can't play even play games like Most Wanted without wanting to throw the thing across the room due to frustration. It's very laggy, jerky, horrible, maybe it will be much better after the 4.4.2 update, if that ever comes, another issue that Samsung is plagued with, llllooooooonnnnnngggg update periods.I think I will only buy Nexus Android devices for now on, best value, always get the newest updates quickly and they're fast.
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] LowaEastSide:
The T311 is Better than the T211

I purchased these devices instead of the others you mentioned cause the T211 & T311 are NOT ONLY tablets but Phones as well, so its my back up Phone if Im going on Vaction with my Family or on a road trip, I have the Note 3, now thats a Device...!!! And Samsung made it. lol. However Im not saying that Nexus 7 line isnt a Great gaming Device cause i have it as well (2013 & its awesome), gave it to my 9yr old to play his Minecraft. Im just STATING the FACT, the T311 has no lag like the T211. That a fact, and it comes with 4.2.2 out the Box, instead of 4.1.2.. Ending this by saying that Im VERY happy with my T311...
[Galaxy Tab 3 General] Nonta72:
You clearly hate Tab 3 Series (7" to 10") !!!

You canNOT compare Tab 7.7 to Tab 3 8" or Tab 3 10.1 :D

These new devices have faster CPUs than Tab 7.7 !

The sexiest thing on Tab 7.7 is that it have an Amoled HD display ! which make picture quality completely better than any Tab (including your so loved Nexus 7, 7 2 and 10).

For its Amoled HD screen I would buy this Tab instead of my retired Note 8.0 if it was available in the same Store in place.

BUT, about performance: Tab 3 8 and 10 are cleary better. Tab 7.7 uses old version of Exynos Dual while Tab 3 8 uses the new Exynos Dual

And about Tab 3 10, this obviously better :good:

Another thing is firmware, Tab 7.7 support (for stable or official release) Android 4.1.2.

While Tab 3 8 and 10 comes out with Jelly Bean 4.2.2.
