Hello,

So I am thinking about aio because of their unlimited data and "so called 256kbps throttling polciy on plans 50 and up". So I go through the setps and type in what I think is my H2O account info but then when I Proceed it will say "aio encountered an issue when trying to port your number".

Whenever that happened I always clicked cancle order but then some pending aio stuff showed up on my credit card statement and no email so they should only be authorizations.

How do I get from H2O to aio? What info is correct when porting from H2O?

Re: ROM UPDATE

Hi all my questions may sound dumb but I am a newbie and want to learn!

I have read the wiki but couldn’t find what I was after.

I am thinking about updating my ROM software from 1.40.00 WWE to the latest one offered on the 02 website which is a v1.40.242.

I am running windows mobile 2003 2nd edition version 4.21.1088. Does anybody if I update my ROM will I have to re-install the Windows mobile 2003? As I bought this phone 2nd hand off ebay I don’t have any recovery cds for the windows mobile software. What does the Software update and does it install a operating system when it updates or does it keep the one I am running?

As it is if I update my xda 2s with the latest rom from the o2 website would it mean that after the update my xda would run on the same windows mobile 2003 software or would one be installed with the ROM update?

Also has anyone updated with the latest o2 rom update and has it made their xda 2s more stable? I am not sure whether I should update as I don’t want any more trouble than I already have with my xda! Any help will be appreciated by a newbie in distress!

Thanks

hi there,

usually the latest rom provided by your vendor, mean there could be big fixes, performance enhancement over the current one, read changelog to be sure of though.

if you decide to go ahead and update it

1. NO YOU DONT NEED RECOVERY CD

2. you will need to reload your own installed application after update.

3. rom update = total current os wipe out and reload a new one, all done by update process itself. so dont worry about that

most ppl in this forum has already given up on the current and stable official rom (windows mobile 2003 SE).

few the guys here like Logout, Tuma and othere are working on a stable release of windows mobile 2005. and we are greatful for their hard work :)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] fraser:
No one has recovery CDs for these phones. While a minor upgrade from your operator is common, having a major upgrade to e.g. WM5 is very rare.

Updating the phone is like a ROM flash on your computers BIOS. So long as you are connected to mains and don't pull the plug, errors are very rare. Especially with the official ROMs.

Finally, all ROM updates improve stability. They wouldn't spend time and money on them just without a big benefit. Testing and releasing a ROM is quite a big deal for the telcos.

EDIT: oops, posted the same time as imatrix. Twice the answers for the same price!

Hey RIO

i did the exact same upgrade with my O2 UK version with 1.40 about a week ago.. once i got that done... i went ahead and upgraded to 2005... which is so much better then the 2003.... so i would suggest upgrading to the IVAN LATEST 2005 ROM WITH RAMDISK... if you don't care much about how the software looks and works.. then just upgrade it with the latest SHIPPED (o2) Rom.. it improoves lot of bugs.. but one problem i had with latest o2 rom is that the Hearing vollume of the phone goes down a little.. not too much...

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satob:
[A] for "okij" in Thread "[Kitkat][Nightlies] CM11 Android 4.4 for the Defy(+) "

Hi,

this is an answer / information for okij. I'm sorry for opening a new thread for this. But sice this is my first Post I am not allowed to answer directly in the Developer thread.

I hope someone can move this post over to "[Kitkat][Nightlies] CM11 Android 4.4 for the Defy(+) " and delete this thread.

My Defy does not boot generally to recovery in case of a telephony layer problem. But it did it once. I noticed it heating up in my bag one swipe away from "wipe".

This is interesting to this question because my Defy does not have the touch buttons any more. They are broken an i use "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" in build.prop to get on screen keys. I can't go into recovery while booting since the new red boot screen where you have to press the menu key. I have to reboot to recovery from the android power button menu.

So I think going to recovery if the telephony layer problem occurs is not "accidentially the Recovery / menu button is pushed when the Defy is in pocket". Or at least not every time.

OT: I really like the new red Screen and menu key to get to recovery. It looks modern and intuitive. But since many people are used to the volume down key (and personally i don't have a menu key ;)) would it be possible to enable both? So you can press menu key or volume down to get to the recovery? I'm a little scared that i have to sfb my Defy when I get a bootloop becase I cant get to recovery.

Hi all. Tried searching for this for a long time now with no luck. Can you imagine how many posts there are with those words in them? Ugh!!

First of all, random reboots. My s4 will reboot as stated...randomly. No rhyme or reason to it. It can just be laying there idle and out of nowhere...REBOOT. I'm on 4.3 mk2 if that helps.

Now the soft reboot. Or hot boot as I've also seen it called. Specifically related to xposed and associated modules. Or in my case, ALL modules. If I do a soft reboot everything runs perfectly. No problem at all. But a full reboot? Nothing xposed related runs. Not framework or modules. Of course the framework has to run for the modules to work. Is this normal? Does xposed only run after a soft reboot? From my searches on the net I'm inclined to say no. But I don't know for sure.

So there you go. Thanks for any help you can give me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] LWH.31752:
Soft reboot is no longer an issue. But the randoms are. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GuestX0019:
Xposed is always running. Are you just rooted or on a custom SafeStrap rom. Has it done this before Xposed, or when did it start? Before/After rooting.

I would:

1. Uninstall/Delete Xposed and all Modules and see what happens. Do reboot clearing all caches if your recovery supports that.

2. Reinstall Xposed fresh thru the apk, and add one Module at a time. Wait and see for a day or two on that one Module.

3. On mk2 you can't change kernels anyway. AFAIK, since new things keep coming out with SafeStrap etc. And I don't keep up.

4. Could always be Hardware--:(

5. Could Odin back to stock and start over. BackUp Cards first. Or even try reformatting cards.

Just throwing out options--:good:

Hope you get it sorted--:)

Thanks for the info rugmankc!! A good bunch of suggestions for me to try. To answer your questions, My phone is rooted stock with safestrap. No custom rom. I rooted my phone within days of having it so no way for me to remember if it randomly rebooted before root. Same with xposed. Can't remember when I put it on there to know if it did it before. But my issues with xposed modules and soft booting have been solved. It's just the random reboots giving me a headache. But I'll give your ideas a go and see what happens.

[General Questions and Answers] Catalinah3:
Hi, I have had the HTC amaze and the HTC One X+ as my 2 first smartphones and wonder if HTC is more 'buggy' in the long term than other androids even apple. As they seem to have several very weird issues, especially towards the end of my 1 year warranty, when my carrier will replace the phone for another one of equal value, after a lot of hassle on my part. The sales lady at the store asked me if I was 'sure' that I wanted to get another HTC as per all my problems with these 2 HTC phones. I have also heard that HTC is quite buggy. I was waiting for the new HTC One (M8) to go on sale later this week, then compared it to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Samsung Galaxy 5, checked out the Nexus 5, and frankly, since I am not a developer, I don't know anymore!!:confused: and I need to change my current HTC One X+ as it is going insane after it came back from the repair shop with a whole new set of problems...

Does anyone who knows and has experience with this actually know if there is a difference between the HTC and Samsung and they acting weird after a couple of months (or sooner)? Or does this happen to all smartphones after a while, android or not? As I have tried the first Samsung Galaxy One and that one was sooo annoying it drove me insane and I returned it for a 4th time to the dealer (who gave me a new phone each time) with a firm resolution to NEVER to buy any Samsung phone again! (that was what, 4 years ago?)

Also users report having problems with their phones that they didn't have before after their updates of the software which seems to cause all kinds of issues, from loss of wifi to battery going dead right away and phone getting super hot (also issues I had with that first Samsung Galaxy!)

Any input would be GRREATLY appreciated!!! :D

I have used HTC Wildfire S + HTC One S + Samsung Galaxy W + Samsung Galaxy SII on my own:

Had never any hardware related issues that was caused to the manufacturer.

HTC Wildfire S charging port broke after 2 years of usage, probably because i used many different chargers, also from other brands (Don't do so!)

Samsung Galaxy II's rear camera is dead, because phone fell into the toilet. After drying it all features but the camera still work.

Original preinstalled software has been real lame on EVERY phone i ever had in my hands. Many "bugs" are software related.

I can't remember that one of my friends had a samsung or htc phone that broke without being missused in any way.

I think both are quality products. Its just important to take some care of your phone.

So it is definitely not possible at this time.

If you want to run AOSP/etc you'll need to buy a used S4 with MDK (e.g. on swappa). They generally sell for a bit more than non-MDK ones, but I've seen them as low as $310-$335 recently. Lowest currently is $360 though. Basically, assuming your S4 is in mint/near-mint condition the price difference should be under $50 if you were to sell yours and buy one with MDK.

[Xperia Z2 General] funky0308:
Yeahh...

Screen brightness on 5%

I can do that with my Z1...

If I can get 6-7 hours on 69-70% screen brightness then I really believe I could reproduce that on 5-10% screen brightness
[Xperia Z2 General] solwretep:
But this was at 40% brightness, not 5%....
[Xperia Z2 General] funky0308:
That's something they/he/she said but it's not possible to really know...
[Xperia Z2 General] solwretep:
14 hours even on 5% brightness is awesome anyway :)
[Xperia Z2 General] plonkersaurus:
Maybe we should ask for a video of it so you can verify the findings :silly:
[Xperia Z2 General] funky0308:
Video should be 30 hours long mate...

You could use 70% for a 2 hours, then 5-10% for a 10-20 hours and then 40% to record a 5 mins video.

It's not possible to know that all we could get is this...so we could believe it or not.

I don't buy that but OK...

Actually - I believe it is possible, if you lower your cpu freq to minimum and brightness to very low.

But if you are using device like every other "normal" person...

I really doubt battery could hold that much of screen time to.
[Xperia Z2 General] plonkersaurus:
Yes it was a joke, it would be 14 hours long for you to watch thus the :silly: .

There's no realistic way to verify anyone's claims so you can say they are bull**** all you want, but if what he is saying is the truth then it is pretty amazing and I highly doubt the Z1 can do it even at minimum brightness.
[Xperia Z2 General] funky0308:
Why do you think it can't?

Z2 have slightly bigger screen and 1GB RAM more so I think battery life should be similar to Z1.

With IPS screen you could get hour or two more (screen time) but to get 7-8 hours more...I really doubt that...

But OK, that's my opinion...

Maximum I can get from Z1 (and my battery is really good) is 30 hours battery with 5.30h-6h of screen time (on 50-60%) and one hour more on (40-50%).

Tested on KitKat Z1 6903 stock firmware.

If you check details, you'll see there's only MXplayer (5%) and nothing more...

Where are the social networks, wifi, gps or push emails...

I'm not trying to say it's not possible, it is but only if you stay on home screen and watch it for a 14 hours...
[Xperia Z2 General] plonkersaurus:
Sony themselves rate the Z1 with a 6.6 hour battery life playing video, and 10 hours for the Z2. We know there is a huge difference in screen technology and I think it's not beyond reason that there is a huge difference in power consumption (if you take into account the Z2 has a faster and thus probably more power hungry chipset)
[Xperia Z2 General] funky0308:
Hmm...in that last sentence you confirmed my thesis...

OK, time will show...

Nice to talk to you ;)

I hope no one is offended here, that wasn't my intention.

If I don't have Z1 I would buy Z2, that's for sure... That's great device.

I'll wait autumn and Z3 or whatever Sony name that one...
[Xperia Z2 General] Jiyeon90:
z1 doesnt get more than 8-9 hours on lowest brightness..

I decided to uninstall the program from the card: Removed it from its location, removed in startupfolder and made a softreset. Again the message: couldnt start card/...Folder/SmartsKeys, every time i look on my device!!! I createt a new Folder SmartsKeys in system memory an started the program. It worked, but i didnt got rid of the failure massage...I uninstalled again and after that 2 masseges appeared with both folders.

Since both of you guys are CID J15, i think you have to change the CID to what you find on the RUU.

However another thing that you guys need to consider is that this is a SIGNED RUU, i am not sure if that will let you downgrade - i am guessing it should be okay as long as you are s-off.

CID BS_US001 is usually the CID, but best is to decrypt this RUU and then find the compatible CID
