[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] MPIIIMan:
A week ago my dog ate my Nokia 6820. So I was forced into (but wanting to) get a new phone. I did alot of research and went for the Cingular 8125.

I've had my phone for one week now, and it's the best purchase I've made in a long time. I wanted to post a little something on here since I used the site extensively when researching.

When I first got the phone, I was not quite used to it. I went from the Nokia 6820 to this and have never had a PDA before.

Out of the box the phone was pretty "boring", but over the course of the past week I have installed and tested pretty much everything out there. Needless to say I didn't get much done at work. I may have had to do 5 hard resets, but that's expected when you find a forum like this and can't resist from tricking out your phone with all the latest hacks and tips.

I'm pretty much set now with the way the phone is setup.

Latest Cingular ROM

Pocket Plus

SPB Diary

SPB Weather

TCPMP

Agile Messenger

B Uptime

Eten Dialer

Hitchhiker (Although it sometimes crashes when notifying you when it connects to a hot spot)

Opera

PHM Tray Launch

pRSS Reader

Registry Wizard (Big thanks to the person that wrote that, made applying all the tweaks so much easier)

Total Commander

WiFiFoFum

wmIRC

Smartskey

Overclocked to 240mhz

I have 15.5MB of space left on the main memory after installing all the above apps. Will definitely be picking up a 2GB card soon for tunes and movies.

For a case I ordered the Proporta Book type. It was hard choosing one. Managed to find the site with the 8 review shoot out which made the decision a little easier.

My favorite feature of the phone came today when I was cutting the grass, and was able to stay connected to my wifi. Which meant I was able to tune into my online radio station.

I'm now seriously addicted to this forum, and look forward to testing out more hacks.

Thanks to all the contributors!!!

Awesome. One thing I love about WM5 is how customizable it is. Everybody has their own tastes and WM5 can work around most who understand how to use it.

i have the same phone as you, but i use the t-mo rom. cuz i have t-mo
[General Questions and Answers] MrSenne:
Hi there guys, I have a couple of questions;

First of all, will my Nexus 4 work in the US network? I assume so, because it's also sold there?

Second, I was thinking of buying a pre paid SIM-card there, so I can use internet on my phone for GPS etc. Is there a provider good for this? Like a lot of data but no text messages? I have no experience with US providers so I have no idea how everything works there.

So if any of you knows a good provider with decent 3G coverage and a lot of data for a low price, please respond. :) I'm going to California, if that matters. :)

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XeroHertZ:
Hi all,

So I just did a mega wipe for my phone as i'm about to install a new rom and I flash TWRP 2.7 with Odin, but my phone doesn't get into recovery mode..it keeps staying on the logo.

It works when I flash philz recovery though...not sure what's wrong here !!

Any help would be appreciated..thanks :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
why don't you try twrp 2.6.3.2?there's not a big difference between 2.6.3.2 or 2.7 which will affect the ROM flashing so if one recovery doesn't work for you go back to the previous working version
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XeroHertZ:
Yeah singhpratik87..you are right, I was just going to say that 2.6.3.2 is the one that worked with me..just flashed it now and it worked. One thing happened to me now though is after flashing the ROM I got stuck at the Samsung logo..rebooted into recovery and did a wipe cache + wipe dalvik and still it's stuck...not sure what is wrong here
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
which rom are you flashing? and which rom were you previously on? and what's your note 2 model?7100 or 7105?

edi: never mind saw your signature ,you're on 7100 and running DN 3,are you trying to flash DN V4?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XeroHertZ:
I actually got back to stock 4.1.2 then flashed V4..I reflashed the rom again and just booted in..Android is updating :)

Thanks buddy :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CravingMender9:
Hi,

I apologize if this has already been discussed.

I just brought a TYLT Vu wireless charger. It is a very nice product, but with one major drawback that really put me off.

It doesn't have a microUSB port. Main reason I wanted that is to use it with my car charger. Is there an adapter that'll allow me to do that? It doesn't make sense to spend $30 on a car inverter.

Otherwise, from the official website, it says it needs Input: 12V / 750mA.

I know that the car batteries give a little over 12V. Can we somehow take direct input from that? Like cutting the provided charger and soldering the pin directly to the 12V car input? Will that work? What are the concerns/issues/problems with this?

BTW, the small pin type adapter, is it the same as old nokia adapter? I have one lying around somewhere. I can search by tonight, but if someone can confirm it before that, that'll be helpful. I can just cut the wires from that and not damage my original adapter.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
My Three model comes unlocked but is already behind when it comes to firmware. It also only has the APNs for Three (so I have to manually input for any other SIM I insert) and there's an annoying splash screen.

I'm not very well-read when it comes to flashing HTC devices but am I right in thinking that there is no way to flash stock firmware without S-off and bootloader unlock? One good thing about even the Sony handsets is that you can flash stock firmware without going through hell.

If I'm wrong could someone point me in the right direction. Not the end of the world if I can't 'stockify' but it would be nice :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
Just flash the stock Rom from Mike in the dev thread.

No need to change firmware. That would take s-off anyway.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
Does this require boot loader unlocking or a simple flash?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
Unlock bootloader.

Flash a recovery through Fastboot -

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Put rom on sd

In recovery backup current rom, then flash custom rom
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
Hmmm I'd have to have the 'tampered' warning and lose my warranty that way wouldn't I?

Might just live with it for now. Thanks though.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
You won't lose warranty no.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
I thought if you unlocked the bootloader it invalidated the warranty? Or have things changed?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kickassdave:
That's a common misconception.

Unless you broke the actual hardware, they are still liable for it
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
As long as the issue isn't blatantly caused by unlocking it, there won't be a problem.

Mine have been s-off and unlocked. They just send them back locked and s-on
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
If I flash this stock ROM will it receive OTA updates just like a normal stock phone?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
No, though you wouldn't need to the updated custom Rom will be out before the ota is.

Of course you can always go back to stock if you keep your backup.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoni1980:
I don't want to mess with flashing ROMs other than for this so I'll probably just leave it as it is. Thanks for your help anyway.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nocomp:
hi folks,

i want to change my htc one, i was first thinking of m8 or z2, but when i see the price, i am not that fast...

so i had a look to the z1 compact, wich seems quite nice, and i like what sony is doing these days.

first question i had in mind: is it possible to use the external microphone you can see in z2 accessories, and it seems that the answer is no, due to the 5 pin jack, bummer :(

now the other question, can you run lifelog on z1 ? i guess it should n be a probleme, if somebody can confirm, would be great.

i ve read here and there that the z1 camera was suffering of quality picture issues, did you guys got an update to fix that (knowing it s same camera than z2 )

Also on z2 they talk about steady motion for recording video, i guess it s only software stuff, is it implemented on the z1 ?

Thx for your replies
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ascariss:
Good question about the mic, it has the same plug as my NC headphones I use

http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/03/06/sony-stm10-stereo-microphone-priced-to-launch-in-early-april/

and those work on my Z1, not sure if the mic will work, I feel maybe the software isn't in the Z1 for it to work? perhaps once the Z2 comes out and the mic, sony will update z1 and the mic will work, why wouldn't they, would still permit z1 users to buy it and have it.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nocomp:
the issue about the external mic is hardware related and it will NEVER work on Z1

any ideas about the other points i ve mentioned?

EDIT 2 It would be good if when you clicked on the plugin that one of the options be the clock\alarm settings screen - thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rmercado:
Hi meschle & Rotlaus,

Will it work in VGA (Universal).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
I am pretty sure it will - you will probably have to edit the xml file so that the position of the clock etc.. is to your liking.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rmercado:
meschle,

Thanks, it is working in VGA, the problem is the resedue of the pink background retains at the edge of the images. Unlike your attached image it is clear. Also I tried to reduce the font size (size=6) and it seems not working.

One more, Can I reduce the size of the Clock (let say 20), I am woried about the arm of the clock, it may not fit to the clock face.

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
Hi - I have edited the images to get rid of the purple\pink effect :wink:

I think size 6 font is a little small for the screen, try 7 or 8 - clock size 20 probably too small - the one on the left of the screen is 16 and wont allow the arms to show.

I have images 60, 40 and 16 which are all edited to remove the pink\purple effect - find them attached in the zip below.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rmercado:
Wow, it is clear now (how did you do that?). I still cant change the font size. I hve to do more reading I suppose.

Anyway thanks for your help, at least I have a descent clock now in may jasjar...

Oppps...! one more problem... the plug-in background is blur. it is supposed to be transparent like the others.

General comment: a litle bit enhancement and this software is great...

Cheers,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
I edited bmp in photo editing software.

In mine its fully transparent.

Try my skin.xml - you may find it easier to edit as its simplified - attached
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rotlaus:
Sorry for the delay, i was very busy the last days.

New Version in the first Post.

Changes:

- no fiddling with the transparent color (pink), i support now real PNG Transparency

- also Alpha Blending is supported

- For the analog clock hands you can now use graphics (See the swiss skin attached to this post). This will look like this:

But beware, this graphic clockhands are very memory hungry...

cu,

Andre
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
Thanks rotlaus - will update my skin and images as necessary - cheers!

EDIT the dll for this has gone from 78kb to 429kb - how comes such a large increase??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rotlaus:
This is cause of the new graphics library which enables real transparency, alpha blending and the graphical clock hands.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yoda_143:
Filesize has grown too big in my oppinion. I don`t want to waste huge amounts of space for something as simple as a today plugin. If you could reduce filesize or make a "light" version or something it'd be great.

Anyways, besides from the size, great work, thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rotlaus:
I could drop JPEG Support. I don't need it. Then the dll would get around 350Kb. But still big. It'll grow anyway cause of future features that i'm currently developing.

@all: Do you need JPEG Support?

also, if the today plugin is on the bottom of the other plugins it doesnt disappear so easily, and if im not using the icons (new feature) it doesnt disappear at all...

btw, could it be possible to choose a png instead of the original app icons for the buttons?

pretty please? :D

it could be something like:
