Anyone have trouble syncing bookmarks.Can't get them to sync. Only have local at top of bookmarks. Gmail bookmarks not showing up at top where you can switch between local and gmail acct.

Fixed it. Took a chromebrowser sync apk from another rom put in system apps, correct permissions and good to go. Just incase someone else has this problem.

[Sprint LG G2] wcr84:
Ok here's what happened. I bricked my phone a month ago. I took it to Sprint in Northern Florida for repair. The guy tot my phone. I was worried at first as he kept saying kdz file. He seemed like he really didn't know what to do. He got it working again but I had frequent data drops and battery sucked. Kit Kat didn't fix any of these problems after resets. I finally two nights ago used the tot on my own and now battery is phenomenal. I got 6 hours sot yesterday. Only problem I'm having now is that I don't use Bluetooth and its off. It's my number one battery hog. Any suggestions? I thought the info about the tot might be helpful for those with battery issues where factory reset hasn't helped.
[Sprint LG G2] xxx_star_droid:
Try to use the tot file to downgrade to 4.2.2 or 4.3 if available.
[Sprint LG G2] tomc585:
I read some are doing a master reset after doing tot. I'm showing bluetoothe @ 2% even though its off after full tot. Battery life is good so far.
[Sprint LG G2] stevie13.xo:
Im seeing bluetooth at 5% and its off.. f'ing bluetooth man

Does the ZVC KK update removes OTG support?

[Sprint LG G2] RayTrue04:
I'm also seeing this and I'm not surprised as the international models are also having this problem after 4.4 update.
[Sprint LG G2] amcferrin90:
Hey that's ok, somebody has to be a troll. I don't owe anyone an explanation but maybe next time you will keep your troll thoughts inside your head. Here's what you don't know sir. My previous account was set up with an email address that I've since deleted. All it took was for me to forget my password and not have a convenient way to reset the password, then seeing now I can use my Twitter login instead, I opted for that.

There you have it. Have a nice day!

:good: There... now you have been thanked a total of two times.
[General Questions and Answers] neonflash:
got a samsung galaxy captivate i897

bought it rooted running cyanogen mod & miui

was fine for about a year then the software kept crashing (everything was force closing)

in the this time i didnt do anything that would have caused this issue. i didnt update anything the only thing i did was install or uninstall apps. so i dont know why it occured. i dont even know if it happened as a result of having been rooted (if something became unstable - i wouldnt have thought so since it worked for a year with no problems)

anyways i now have new phone since that one become unreliable but i'm now looking at how i could fix the issue so i can use it as a spare phone if needs be.

it runs cyanogen mod android version 2.3.7 and i'd be looking at how i could go about updating to ice cream sandwich or jellybean, whichever has a stable build.

how would i go about doing this? (in simple terms - i'm a noob!)
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
Im glad you asked for ICS or Jellybean, CM 11 (Kitkat) is terrible looking. if you still know how to flash roms, we should probably figure out what version of CWM you have. other than that, if you have CWM 5.x.x.x or higher you can go ahead and download the top version here first http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=captivatemtd&type=stable and This Gapps for CM 10.2 http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip and put them both on your External micro SD card. boot into CWM and flash CM 10.2 first and then the Gapps after.
[General Questions and Answers] neonflash:
problem is i dont know how to flash!

yeah sorry i'm a total noob :(

if there's step by step instructions though that'd be great
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
so do you at least know how to boot into Recovery? i haven't touched my Captivate in awhile but i imagine that its (turn off your phone first) hold volume up first then power button until the Samsung logo apears and tell me all the information thats on the screen. when your done you can use the volume buttons to navigate to reboot phone.
[General Questions and Answers] neonflash:
vol up & down and power yep :]

here's the options:

reboot system now

apply update from sd card

wipe data/factory reset

insall zip from sd card

backup and restore

counts and storage

advance

power off

go back

i selected reeboot now & have been left with a hat like this on screen :/ (dunno if that's good or bad!)

it's just the hat nothing else and has been like that for about 30mins......

phone's ****ed isnt it ?

optop of the options it say cwm based recovery v5.0.2.7
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] emay:
The subject says it all. Whenever I perform a cold reset the extended rom does not load. It is filled with the correct cab's, I can see that when I unhide/unlock the EXTROM, but it just won't load. I manually load all the cab's now, but maybe somebody knows a solution to this problem? This goes for an offical release from QTEK.nl as all others. The autorun.exe and config.txt files are present.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rudegar:
is the config.txt filled with the correct cab file listing ?

if you havent edit'd it and the first cab entry in it is a cab you

changed it may skip the rest of them
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] emay:
I have checked the config.txt and it lists only CAB which are present, including TPDisable.exe and TPEnable.exe. So that should not be the problem. Even offical releases don't load properly. I am just afraid it might be a hardware problem, I have dropped it a few times...... :oops:
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] vikash118:
When we revert back to stock rom boot logo doesn't change. is there any way to get stock boot logo?
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Rht555:
I have restored stock rom from Color OS Rom and got stock boot logo as well, How you have restored it?

As per my understanding boot logo and animation are kept in rom only so no reason for not getting them back to stock.

Have you modified boot animation in stock rom system files itself?
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Rht555:
Have you got solution for this?

Am also getting same issue after flashing "Stock ROM | Deodexed | Optimized | Version 3.0"
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Solomon258:
In this rom the boot logo itself is Cynagonemod..... If you want stock boot logo ask devs (@sanssan90) to create a flashable zip and flash it ;)
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] Rht555:
I posted it on rom thread also, but actually Cynagonemod logo is not coming.. Google boot logo then getting original stock mmx logo. Just this Google logo coming in before stock.
[Android Apps and Games] AndTheBoys:
I'd like to introduce the first in a series of apps I will be doing for those who enjoy buying lottery instant games (scratch-offs).

The app is called PA Lotto Scratch Pro!, for the state of Pennsylvania.

The way the app works is it gathers data from the state lottery website which tells players how many of the big prizes are left so you can make an informed decision and avoid games without many prize dollars left.

You can also view the lottery results for drawn games such as PowerBall and MegaMillions.

If this is something you're interested in but don't live in Pennsylvania, you can head over to my website and sign up to be notified when an app is available in your state. The more demand for a state, the sooner the app will come!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuzzychicken:
Hello folks,

I have been playing with OTG cable and various flash drives. I wonder if anybody found a 'perfect' flash drive that consumes least amount of power and plays media smoothly through OTG cable.

I have HTC One X and I tried with Sandisk USB flash drive (SDCZ60-032G-A46). It recognizes the drive, can play movies through MX Player without any tweaks, but the video is jittery. I did not look into power consumption. I have 3 other drives that I checked, didn't work (SDC-Z032AG-AC46, AUV128-64G-RBE, and 3 years old Kingston 16GB)

Until then if anyone found a perfect drive, would like to hear.

Thanks in advance.

(P.S. - The phone in question is HTC One X, unrooted)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simon5post:
hi

please can someone help.

I have a Motorola defy mb525 which I have rooted and have 2ndInit bootmenu v2.0 (bootmenu ics recovery v5.6.6-jordan) installed.

I was running cm9 android 4.0.9. and it worked fine.

but I have recently tried to upgrade the phone to cm11 android 4.4.

but the custom recovery boot loader was unable to install cm11. so I tried to upgrade the custom recovery. which messed up my android.

I have put cm9 back on the phone OK. and logged in with all my Google account and started re installing my apps. but got an error saying I was running out of room after installing just one app.

If I restart the phone I loose all my setting and have to set every thing up again. so the phone is not saving the settings. it just starts up like a fresh install every time I start the phone.

I have wiped the cashe partition. run a factory data/reset. and wiped the davik cashe.

and run the safewipe file from this website. but nothing has helped.

I still have the same problem with the phone not saving the setting after rebooting.

if i run the show log command in the bootmenu i get these error messages

cant open mount /cashe/recovery/log

failed to mount /dev/block/mmcb1k1p24 (invaled argument)

cant unlink /cashe/recovery/command

don't know if this is related.

please dose anyone know what I can do to fix it.

Thanks

Convert data and cache to ext3 from boot menu

Or simply flash a sbf, it should also fix the problem
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simon5post:
Hi thanks for the response.

I didn't have an option the convert to ext3 in my boot menu.

So I ended up flashing the phone with sbf.

and it all worked fine.

I rooted my kindle fire hd 7" and installed the 2nd-Bootloader + TWRP. Everything work fine until I try to flash a rom it flashes ,then when i reboot, it stays on the kindle fire logo what am i doing wrong i followed all the installation instructions.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Did you factory reset before flashing the ROM? And to double check, which logo, the blue one?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l00k0ut21:
Yes i did factory reset.It gets stuck on the blue logo
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Maybe a selinux error, but it shouldn't be, considering amazon os didn't have selinux support. Maybe a bad ROM download or something, because that's odd. If its a selinux error you would have to wipe internal storage with a command via adb. What version of twrp do you have installed?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catani:
Hi Guys....I'm posting here because I don't have the privileges to post on the official Trinity Kernel thread. I just flashed the kernel this morning and while I'm more than satisfied with the performance I'm a little worried that it simply won't let me choose the CPU frequency. It simply maxes out at 3.14 Ghz ...which is way more than I actually need or want...and whenever I try to go to a more safe 2.3- 2.4 Ghz it simply won't change....tried flashing older versions but it just the same. Is it safe for me to keep it like this or should I try another kernel? Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
what do you mean it wont let you chose cpu frequency? by default, trinity maxes at 2260mhz btw, not 3014mhz. you can set it manually to 3014mhz, but chances are that your phone will not be able to run at 3014mhz, very few can. anyways, you need to install a cpu control app to adjust your cpu speed, i use the trinity kernel toolbox, but there are others around.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paradelle:
When flashed, some kernels break root access. Flash the latest supersu (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053), and then you'll be able to use an app like TKT or trickster to adjust CPU. I use Trinity mostly, and sometimes have this issue if I forget to flash supersu,
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
also you need to have busybox installed if you are already using a cpu control app. the cpu control app would need busybox to work properly.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catani:
Hi. Thanks for your quick reply. What I meant to say is that I use the trinity kernel toolbox but whatever cpu speed I choose it always goes back to 3014mhz...I even tried underclocking...just for the sake of it but nothing...I tried to go default with 2260 mhz but I still get 3014mhz in antutu and geekbench 3. Did a benchmark with antutu and I get 32460 when it should be around 24000. I don't know if I should be worried or glad. While my N5 isn't getting any hotter my past ock experiences tell me that I shouldn't push it. Am I doing something wrong?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absoluterebirth:
Antutu and Geekbench 3 show you the max frequency that your phone can go up to on your Nexus 5. If the kernel is overclockable, then these benchmarks will show you the max frequency, in Trinity kernel's case, 3.1Ghz. If everything looks right in the Trinity Toolbox app, then you're good to go. Trinity doesn't come overclocked by default.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
well, you are not running your phone at 3014mhz. a 32000+ in antutu is average for 2260mhz considering you are running the dalvik/bionic patches(your rom probably includes them. i getvabove 40000 at 2.5ghz, cant imagine what it woukd becat 3014mhz! btw, what rom are you running? anyways, it sounds to me as you dont have busybox installed, tkt needs it to work properly. go to the play store, find the busybox app by stericson, install it, open it, let it do its thing, then install it and reboot. that should get tkt working properly. like i said, the default trinity top cpu speed is 2260mhz and no higher.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catani:
Thanks....seems I lost root access. Re-flashed SuperSU and now everything's working great. Thanks guys for all your quick help. Have a nice one
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
awesome!

i flash supersu every single time i update my rom, rastakat, because it doesnt include su, and has to be flashed every time.
[Fascinate General] samsung striker:
For those with the Parandroid ROM, using the latest build (4.4.2), I have a way to make it faster. Get " Apex Launcher " from the Play Store. It increased my performance of my phone, as well as its speed. It became lag free. This worked for me. Give it a try. Also, if your device gets slow, just optimize it. Download an app from the Play Store that can close apps. Apex launcher might or might not work for some people. Just give it a try.

[Google Chromecast] Krisshp:
Hello how do you turn it off?

After I'm done and there is stil l the blue light so how does it turn of or go stand by thanks
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Same way you turn off your refrigerator!
[Google Chromecast] Krisshp:
I shut the door lol

Honestly. How do I turn it off?
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
LOL well the fridge doesn't go off when you close the door only when you unplug it!

The CCast is meant to stay on and wait for you to send something to it....

There is no Off switch.

It is afterall an APPLIANCE.
[Google Chromecast] Krisshp:
Haha. Kk. That makes sense

:).
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
It's very low power draw (someone recently checked it with a Kill-A-Watt) and having it on continuous power means:

Much less chance of mishap during a firmware update (since they happen without you knowing)

It can turn on your TV and switch it to the appropriate input, if your TV or connected device supports HDMI-CEC. Mine is connected to my sound bar's input box and it seems to change the TV to the correct channel as well as the sound bar box! Magic!!!
[Google Chromecast] zul8er:
So many things don't turn "off" now. Instead they "sleep." My Xbox one is never "off", my blue ray is never " off" either. Its such a low power state that who really cares. I've tried to get my power bill down to the days of an apartment, but its impossible. ;)
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Yeah, this I have tried (and failed at) too... seems only way that works is to update and consolidate, but I don't have that kind of cash.

-= this post enhanced with bonus mobile typos =-
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Just about everything is computer controlled, uses some variation of Flash memory and all of that needs power...

Imagine if you had to wait for your TV to boot up before you could watch TV.

Or for your Router and Modem to boot up every time you wanted to use the internet...

almost nothing these days actually shuts off entirely.
[Google Chromecast] striker59:
I only plug it in to use it. When I'm done I pull the power cord from my usb. I worry that it could be in the middle of an update and if I turn off my TV something bad could happen.
[Google Chromecast] Creepingdeath2:
Same here.

It's installed in the man cave anyway. If I'm not going to be down there for a week, why let it draw power. But that's me...I'm also the guy that goes around behind everyone turning off lights and shutting things off that aren't being used. PC gets shut down at the end of the day and doesn't get turned on until its needed the next day. Laptops at least go into Hibernation. I don't leave phone chargers plugged into the wall either if they aren't charging a phone. Maybe it's an old school thing. LOL
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Old School with a Nickname like that says to me we probably got drunk in the same Metal bars back in the day before Online dating when you actually had to dress up, go to a bar to get laid or find your future ex wife! LOL
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
If you want you could always cut open a USB cable and just install your own on/off switch on the 5v power lead. The wiring diagram for USB cables is on Wikipedia.

But just out of curiosity I got out my own power meter and checked the Chromecast. It consumes less than 2 watts on standby with the screen background photos cycling (that's the lower limit that my power meter can read). While playing a Youtube video it's still only 2 watts, though from the way the reading varies it looks like it's slightly higher than standby. As far as I can tell it's independent of whether the TV is on or not.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Or get yourself a Clapper! LOL
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
I'd shut down my PC save for the fact that it takes 20 minutes to become useable. Maybe I need SSD, heh.

I have some smart power control devices (TrickleStar, APC green UPS) too.

One thing I learned only a few years ago - if you unplug a battery powered device, DISCONNECT the device from the charger!

Even though it's not supposed to, some chargers allow some back flow and slow drain the device's battery, killing it.

-= this post enhanced with bonus mobile typos =-
[Google Chromecast] Creepingdeath2:
Now that was funny!

And THIS was even funnier mostly because I'm sure it's very close to the truth. LOL
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
Hey, that's a great idea! :)

But wait a minute, how many watts does a Clapper use? I bet it's more than 2 watts!
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Yep there really is no point to trying to save power without just going over and unplugging it....

As of now there are only two reasons I can come up with for really wanting to power off a CCast...

1 - The damn thing will change inputs anytime it reboots or updates

2 - The CCast gets pretty hot after awhile...It just seems like the kind of device that if you do not have a conditioned power source coming into the house it could easily fry.

On a more serious note if thats all your worried about (not Power use) then anyone who has one of those X-10 Home automation systems can easily plug the CCast into a module and shut it off from the phone or tablet.

And if you don't care that the CCast can't turn the TV on and the TV has a USB port thats probably the best way to save power.

I personally don't trust the TV to give it stable power and you will find yourself having to unplug it anyway to reboot from time to time...

If you really have issues with a high Electric bill there are far better ways to save on that bill than powering down a CCast.

Even something as simple as keeping your Freezer fully packed will save more money in the long run than the few hours the CCast is unplugged.
[Google Chromecast] Liquid Li0n:
I don't mind it consumes energy, it is very little but I am more concerned about the fact it will be broken faster. It's like a light bulb, when you are not using it, why does it need to stay on and will need to be replaced faster.

Also the chromecast gets quite hot. So without turning it off, it never gets a chance to cool down.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Well the truth is silicon is not as fragile as a Light filament is...

Power Surges worry me but not just the act of being powered on....

It makes sense that it would be an always on device considering it needs to be there when you want it...

But some sort of sleep state might be a nice addition to any next generation model which I hope can also be wired to the network and use Wake On Lan to full power up when you want to cast.
[Google Chromecast] Liquid Li0n:
indeed, I don't know if it is already included, e.g. when it is displaying the wallpaper pictures for let's say 30 minutes or 1 hour it would go in standby and can only be activated when opening the chromecast app on the phone.

about the wake on lan...I don't know if this will work to connect ethernet on it:

http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/MICRO-U...Kabel_Hubs_Adapter&hash=item27e1039705&_uhb=1
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Unfortunately OTG is not enabled in normal runtime, only in the bootloader.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Yep not possible yet, and even if OTG were enabled the CCast OS would still need some driver support for the dongle to work.

You could use a Y adapter to power the CCast but that's not something I would ever expect a company to support.

Not that Google couldn't make that happen if they wanted to but I am guessing the only way we see that is if Google picks a dongle and sells it as a Wired Accessory to CCast.

It would probably have a port to plug the power into the network dongle and then that power would transfer into the CCast itself.

---------- Post added at 05:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 AM ----------

I do not believe the CCast has any sleep state at present...
