That wouldn't be an at&t problem that would be a problem from Samsung as they build these phones.....also all I337's have the dotted paint job
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Red_81:
Return it to the corporate store and see if they will give you a new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] joerolando2701:
I Think modz is right all the s4 have that dotted paint that's not really a big deal to me I just wished they had covered the led like all the other colors. All the red ones at att have the dot. in the pictures online its there in some of the other photos but not in the main big first pic you see I think its a cgi image probably an oversite by Samsung it just looks kinda weird coming from a s3 I'm not used to seeing it and I dont think its there on the red s3 I'm not sure mine is white
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] joerolando2701:
It was att website showing the red s4 without that dot that was the picture I used to decide on getting the red one they should have more accurate higher quality images for buyers to accurately portray the item their selling I guess next time ill go to the store and see it first thanks for the reply

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] UberSlackr:
Just wondering how many people are getting duplicate(or multiple) SMS messages?

(I get them no matter what SMS app I use, HTC, Hangouts, GoSMS, etc)

Update: For those that are still on STOCK (w/o root.)

Verizon said there is an update coming to address this issue, but Verizon is not the most reliable when it comes to updates.

(Even though HTC has the Advantage, Verizon still likes to control everything)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zounduser:
I was before I flashed a Rom, and removed all that Verizon crap! As there were more than one apps for messages. Since I updated though, I haven't had one duplicate.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] UberSlackr:
I'm confused because you first said you Flashed a "ROM" then you said you "Updated." ??

I "disabled" the Verizon Messaging app, as well as the Hangouts app via App Manager, but I still get the Duplicate/Multiple Messages...

I've received some of the message 5+ time...

Hello I've been reading your forum for the past days and I've read so manyy comments I just get more and more confused.

Has anyone tried some WM5.0 ROMS and can explain me if there's one better then another?

Which ones are still in develpment?

What are the newest ones?

I'm really that newb :(

Thanks in advance

teh CORE
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:
Which one is best is really quite a can of worms... it depends what you're after really!! (Stability, functionality, added apps, speed, get my drift?)

The newest ones are the AKU2.3 versions... they are all less than a week old (more like 2-3 days!) and are still in their infancy, although surprisingly stable all things considered!! (I use one of these and have had no issues...)

Popular ROM's are the TuMa ROMS (1.3 and 1.4), and the Ivan 4.3 ROM with RAMDisk that thingonaspring produced...

Just try them and see what you think :twisted:

Read the threads, just search for TuMa/Logout/Ivan or AKU2.3, you'll find plenty to read ;)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] willpower102:
Have you read the wiki?

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/

the blue angel wiki...

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel

and the wm5 wiki...

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home

That said and done i would try all of them. There's a forum for each one. Try tuma 1.3, then try logout 5.4.05, then try ivan 1.11 w/ ramdisk, then if you want to try Helmi aku2.3 but know that it's still in development.

If you want something stable. Stick with ivans. Or if you don't mind the slowness, go with logouts. Each has bugs, the bugs are already posted in the forums for each rom. It's GOING to be slower than wm5, But you get used to it.

When upgrading also know that downgrading can be a *****, but isn't too hard if you read and keep your files separate and clean. Also learn to use editfix.bat. Make a master copy that has your phone info and you can run it on any wm5 rom to make the upgrade without errors.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leAndroid91:
Hi guys,

since a few weeks it's the same sh*t with every Omni-Nightly and franco.Kernel.

Everything is working fine for 1-2 day.

But then the cpu usage increases (i don't see any reason) and won't go back to idle again.

I tried several cpu monitor apps but none is showing me which app is causing this issue.

Please help.

And please don't blame facebook.

My cpu behaves the same way even no facebook app is installed.

If you need further information please tell me.

Thanks a lot for your help!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
go to the main phone settings, location, now press google location reporting.. turn off location reporting and location history. your location will still work without these. no go back to the location option, and turn the mode to battery saving.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leAndroid91:
i've got this issue since 1 or 2 weeks.

i can say for sure that it's not any location services fault.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i see google play services showed up on your battery stats. normally, you wont even see it there, but you are at 71% and so far its taking 6%. its not the location services per se, they work fine with those options disabled. but it is a well known battery drainer.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leAndroid91:
you're right that those services are draining the battery, but in an acceptable way.

when i don't have the isse with the increased cpu usage i've 4-5 hours sot @ 12 hours overall uptime.

so i guess in general everything is working fine on my device.

but i don't know what and why is causing the high cpu usage :crying:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
I'm no good at understanding BBS stats, but what is daemonsu?

There seems to be something keeping your phone awake and attributing its drain to "Android OS" which could be many things, including Widgets.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
I could help, but prefer gsam screenshots. Unfamiliar with BBS.

Also, for starters....and please trust me here...just turn location services completely off for one charge cycle and see what happens. Also, Google settings app....go into android device manager and uncheck both options.

See how your full charge goes like that. If its still bad...its an app doing the damage, or a very weak signal.

Try it, and it will narrow down the problem. ?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
Option 1. go back to 100% stock Rom see if it behaves the same

option 2. hard reset your phone and check battery usage with no apps installed

option 3. put your phone on airplane mode and see if battery still drains the same way using wifi. Usually if I have bad reception my battery will drain like crazy. My personal experience using my Nexus 5 I can't tell how much my battery is going to last day by day sometimes I get over 12hrs other days I'm lucky if I get 8hrs.
[General Accessories] sghouri:
Dear Friends,

I need your advise regarding charger.. I am using 5v---2A charger for charging my LG G Pro.. I takes not more than 1.5 he's to fully charge... is it damaging my battery... and what are the stock charger specifications?

Looking forward for your prompt response
[General Accessories] vectron:
I thought stock LG G Pro wall charger is 1.8A? Either way, all the latest phones with high capacity batteries use 2A charger for faster charging. Also, typically it should not draw more current than it's rated charging speed. The rule of thumb is to use a charger with a same rating as a stock one.
[General Accessories] sghouri:
LG G Pro Charger

thank you very much for reponsw ... please also confirm 5v---2A charger is safe to use?
[General Accessories] vectron:
It's safe, but I don't know where you got your charger :) For example at home, I use only brand name 2A chargers from Samsung, Anker, and UE/Logitech for charging of all of my accessories from 500mA to 2A (they only draw as much as they need too even so all my charging sources can provide up to 2A of current). But if you guys $4 no-brand charger from eBay, doesn't matter what the label say - you can never guarantee safe operation at max current since those are cheap without a good over-current protection or component rating without a margin. I would also recommend asking other LG G Pro users in direct forum sub-section of XDA: http://xdaforums.com/optimus-g-pro

Good luck!
[T-Mobile LG G2] Kknguy:
I have tried all the drivers and did all the research I could do. I downloaded Google universal driver, Koush drivers, and LG drivers but I still get a "USB device not recognized" error. I have turned on/turned off USB debug and checked MTP in the setting. One thing to note is that I am not using the original LG USB. Could this be the case? I can't seem to wrap my head around why using a non-OEM cable would prevent the computer from recognizing the phone though. I have tried all of the non-OEM cable I have and none works.

Have anyone had this problem and solved it?

PS. my phone is stock 4.4.2

[Java for Android App Development] GRYMALA:
The problem is that you create new instances of adapter each time, instead of updating the existing one. Easy way to solve your problem is to change attributes of array_list_music and adapter to public static in your MainActivity and modify addSong inside SettingsActivity to:

private void addSong(String artist, String songName, String directLink)
{
MainActivity.array_list_music
.add( songName
+ " ### "
+ artist
+ " ### "
+ directLink);

MainActivity.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SaDiCuL:
Almoust all car chargers charge 5.0v and 1A so is half from the wall charger amount
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] pacificwing:
If only "pretty quick" and "pretty good speed" were reliable metrics to go by.

I've yet to find a car charger that will get more than 1.1amps on the meter. Max is 1.8.

1.1amps is enough to charge the phone "pretty quick" normally, but not if it is loaded down. Once I get GPS, bluetooth audio and Torque Pro going at the same time, I find that 1.1amps will actually result in a slow drain. I use an inverter and a stock wall charger which keeps the phone charging even at full use. I've yet to find a aftermarket car charger that will do the job.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] PirateP3t3:
Howdy Everyone,

So just tried rooting my new m8 and now I'm stuck endlessly booting into TWRP. I thought I did everything correctly: Unlocked the bootloader, installed the USB drivers, installed the ADB fastboot drivers and then flashed twrp 2.7.0.3. I get to the the htc logo screen/warning and, bam, back to twrp everytime.

Does anyone know how to fix this??? The last time i was rooting and installing custom mods was back in samsung galaxy s2 days, so my knowledge is a little dated. Please help!!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
Did you boot system after unlocking boot loader? or did you flash twrp right away. also 2.7.0.4 is out. Did you use the UL_CA twrp and not the WHL? Need more info, has it booted since you installed twrp?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] PirateP3t3:
Yes, I remember booting back into the phone after unlocking the boot loader. I made some calls, sent some texts, then flashed twrp.

I used the UL-CA version after following these instructions. androidcentral.us/2014/04/root-att-htc-one-m8/ (ugh, won't let me link)

I'm not sure what the difference between that and the WHL is.

Also, not sure what you mean by "has it booted since you installed twrp", I've tried rebooting it numerous times, but it just goes back into twrp.

Thanks!!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] PirateP3t3:
Well i'm not actually sure what happened there but I ended up just flashing a custom rom. I was really trying to stick with stock for now but whatever. Anyways, thanks for the reply and I have much to learn :p
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
The stock nandroid for twrp is available to download. Stock is super bloated anyway. Make sure you get newer version of twrp.

I'm not able to disable the PIN (or any security based lock screen; Password, Pin, or Pattern) and set the phone to just "Lock Screen" or even "No Lock Screen." The Face Unclock feature is also not available.

How do I remove the PIN (without a factory reset?)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dneiding:
Are you connected to a corporate Exchange email account? If so, I think the Exchange admin can require the lock screen and not let you turn it off.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Pauls57:
+1 This happened to me on my last phone, built in policy in MS Exchange. I think if you delete the account, you can get the options back.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] UberSlackr:
Only company email account used on the account is accessed through Gmail.

The "Lock Screen" was the selected option, until I tested out the PIN. But then when I went back into setting, Lock Screen and the other two were greyed out. So I can't remove the PIN now.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] chief:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] EdCarden:
How do you delete micro SD protection? Can this be done without formatting the card?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] chief:
Of course, because you do not format it. Settings/security/decrypt SD card storage.

of course that option will be shown if you encrypted the card before

I think that also works with phone encrypt so maybe that's why you can't delete pin

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
Ditto. Clear certificates.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fir3fly1995:
figured it out

I managed to sort the issue out by clearing the credential storage on my device. It may not solve the issue for everyone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] j21c412d0:
So I had this problem but only after this most recent update beginning may. And what I did was go to setting, then security, there should be a credential storage area. I cleared the credentials went back to lock screen and it wasn't greyed out anymore. I don't even know what activated this because all I did was add a pin just like you and then wanted it off and I couldn't. But I solved it. Hope it works for you. Good luck
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rajyadav_np:
To opt out, Go to Settings » Accounts» Remove Google and Corporate/Exchange account then restart device.

Now again go to Account and add Google account.

Now lock the phone and try to unlock with invalid PIN/Pattern for 5 times, next it will automatically open SnapView settings, there, remove SnapView.

That's it, Go to Security » Lock screen, enter the current PIN/Pattern, now it will display all other lock options....

[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] lordmaxey:
Hi there:)

Well, as we really need Interop Unlock for our Lumia phones, i decided to check this out myself.

As i already have ATF Box for a long time, i decided to buy JTAG activation and dolphin clip + lumia jigs, that i do not have to solder my phone.

Also i have ordered a Lumia 520 testing phone on ebay.

So, as the ATF Team made an awesome JTAG software update, i'm trying to interop unlock that Lumia 520 the hardware way, as just software seems to be too tough...

Well, what i did so far:

1. Freshly flashed Lumia 520 RM-914 with latest stock rom

2. Did the setup/beginning after turning it on for 1st time

3. developer unlocked it with SDK on PC

4. Made Full Dump with JTAG from dev-unlocked phone

5. Mounted MainOS partition of dump with program "OSFMount" (-->appears as Local harddisk example drive E: )

6.Loaded the SOFTWARE hive with regedit on PC from "E:\Windows\System32\config"

7. Edited the following values:

PortalUrlInt = http://127.0.0.1

PortalUrlProd = http://127.0.0.1

MaxUnsignedApp = 10003

8. unloaded SOFTWARE hive

9. unmounted dump-image

10. wrote image back via jtag

I thought it might be a good Idea to dev-unlock the phone before messing with the registry, to make sure "DeveloperUnlockState = 1" gets written the "legal" way, as the key is not available in registry before.

Maybe it's better to just modify an existing key, than adding a new one...

Well, long story short: The result is not totally satisfying.:(

After writing the modified image back to the EMMC, the phone is booting up, but i can NOT deploy homebrew apps that require interop unlock, like [MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]s "EnableAllSideloading.xap" for example.

But i can deploy "nomal" apps like [MENTION=770625]cpuguy[/MENTION]s "Toastlauncher" and [MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION]s "Webserver"

The weird thing: If i check the reg-values via WebServer on the Phone, i can see my edited values.

So the changes ARE written to the phone. The phone just doesn't use them...

So, the good thing: phone is booting with modified rom :good:

But, the bad thing: Changes are not working. :confused:

EDIT:

SUCCESS!!!

After adding

i could successfully sideload "EnableAllSideloading.xap"

After executing enableallsideloading i could sideload latest WPHTweaks build.

Now i have 3rd tile row enabled! :)

awesome!

Also member [MENTION=5736292]myst02[/MENTION] is working on interop-unlocking the lumia phones. So we decided to make this a together-project.
