[LG Optimus G (International)] Duo8:
I just flashed official LS 3.0 nightly for e975 and my phone said No service with my carrier's name after it. I tried going to settings and noticed network mode is set to 4G but I couldn't change it back to 3G or 2G. Flashed my old nandroid backup and it worked again.

My phone is a F180K.

What is the problem here? How do I fix it?

Hi,

tried out the GPRS/EDGE Tweak showing "E" instead of "G" if you are on a cell supporting EDGE:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\

DWord EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon set to 1

This tweak also worked on my Qtek 8300 smartphone though it was listed here for an other type of device.

Unfortunately it does not work :-((

Also no effect if you try to create a DWord EnableDifferUmtsHsdpaIcon and set it to 1 hoping it would work for HSDPA :-((

Is there anybody who can find out (whether by leeking knowledge from insiders or reverse engineering) if such tweaks are existing for the HTC TyTN (Hermes) platform ?

Hey it would be great ... Any update ?

Otherwise, how can I know which connection I'm using between GPRS/EDGE and UMTS/HSDPA ? Any 3rd party application ?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] JoeM5952:
Device: Note 8.0

I have a friend of mine that was asking me for some help. He is in the US Air Force and stationed in Okinawa and can't get the playstore to recognize his US address which is an APO address. We tried psiphon and clearing all the play store data but it still defaults to the Japan play store.

He just got the device and it isn't rooted, do we have to root to be able to make this work or did they just make it much harder to change regions? I think this is a justifiable reason to change region.

If it does have to be rooted anyone have a recommendation of a ROM that is easy to do for someone with little experience and can be done through a Mac as that is all he has over there.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew.fly:
Hello guys,

Today while I was using Llama to config some actions my screen got red, yes... seems to be a red layer over all the screen.

It doesn't flash or blink and isn't that red border error.

I tried to reboot. While shuting down or turning on the screen is normal, the Samsung logo screens are normal. When the android stars the screen is red again.

I also tried to change screen configs on native screen config options, but had no sucess.

The attached file shows the error...

PS: what seems to be the red layer does not apply to notifications, wifi connection in the screenshot.

Does anyone have any suggestion about this?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Try something for me, if you could: adjust the brightness manually. Does it affect the color or how much it is colored? Does just removing Llama help or the settings are already stuck? Factory reset and / or reloading the OS is always an option, though not always the most desirable one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew.fly:
Thanks for your reply.

When adjusting the brightness manually the red color follows the brightness changes.

I have removed Llama and restarted the phone, but nothing has changed.

Yes... i was thinking about factory reset, but will wait a little before that =)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew.fly:

I broke the screen on my S4 to the point that it is not usable. I work in a hospital and urgently need to access my phone and the texts on it. The phone is rooted. Is there any way I can access my texts and unlock my phone so I can access the data on it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] VandyCWG:
Can you plug it into a PC and access KIES?

Other than that, I do not know. I use MightyText and that keeps everything sync'ed to the cloud. Maybe installing that after the fact.

Or, second thought, look towards AndroidLost, I think you can install that without seeing the screen.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] xfullmetal17:
If you can get into recovery, you could make a nandroid backup of your current setup, then restore data (I'd advise against system) onto the new phone, assuming it's still a Galaxy S4 (and it's not the Triband).

Alternatively, still do the nandroid but use an app such as Nandroid Explorer to get the pieces you need out of it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] scott14719:
I have to wonder how many full-time employees AT&T and Samsung have that do nothing but monitor the web (mostly XDA) for whatever goes on here at XDA so they can react to any potential important discoveries, mods, or developments.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] quordandis:
I too also thought this....it had occurred to me that it would be particularly clever and prudent to have your finger on the pulse of your "power users", but then it occurred to me that because it's such a smart idea, they're guaranteed NOT to do it (keeping in line with they're history). So that's my logic....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] smknutson:
As nefarious as that sounds, it's almost guaranteed that the engineering portions of Sammy/AT&T that are responsible for security monitor forums and social media such as this. Probably even have moles portraying themselves as ignorant users.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] delawaredrew:
I'm sure that engineers look at XDA and other developer/user forums out of interest or even as part of the job; but unless something directly affects Samsung or AT&T in a manner that is costing them a significant amount of money I doubt any action is made in response. Remember these are corporations, money/time is not spent chasing a relatively few users who choose modify their phones, even if it is to evade fees and/or modify a locked feature. It just doesn't make a large financial difference.

Apple certainly pursued a cease and desist strategy but I think that was mostly out of a control freak corporate culture. Other than tethering for free,what do rooting and custom ROMs actually cost AT&T or Samsung? We still buy their phones loyally and pay for the service. If it mattered enough they would take greater steps to lock stuff down, or routinely push updates to secure their devices when exploits are found.

Just my take on it - I'm a pretty paranoid dude but not in this regard. We just don't matter much to them.

the sad thing is all those files and scripts wouldn't have provided us any solution to root or unlocking the boot loader, those were qualcomm scripts and files but only for signing the mbr/mbl nothing unfortunatley to do with unlocking it or rooting the device in any manor, the certs may have been helpfull in tricking odin in to believing a custom rom was official is the only thing that i could actually see coming out of that.

and I was a little leary of the member in the first place, he offered no tangible proof that the scripts did anything all he did was list a directory of files, and when he was asked to provide proof that he actually rooted or unlocked a bootloader he refused to respond.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] stoobie-doo:
One thought. Samsung and Apple are both making big enterprise plays. My company in it's BYOD program is pushing Samsung hard over other Android phones because they are more locked down with corporate policies mandating encryption and forbidding rooting/jailbreaking coming soon to my employer, I can see how a locked down phone is more attractive to them and could lead to more sales, not yet.

We're not their only market, and in the grand scheme of things, there may be more money for them going this path.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] surf1:
What they should be doing is making business/gov contracted phone deals locked down, and leaving the consumer phones as is, that's what they should be doing. Honestly TW is pretty good now and wouldn't bother me if I couldn't flash a rom (obviously I want to), however not having root and not being able to actually delete (not just disable) bloatware is f'n annoying lol.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedBlooDerp:
Long story short i deleted my data/app file(accidentaly). Sony xperia S android 4.2.1 i think... Dont ask how that happened. So right after i deleted it by mistake everything started crashing many apps stopped working. Immediatly after doing that i restored a restore point and rebooted. As you would expect my phone is password protected, but when i klick the password slot id doesnt show the keyboard nor the option to change keyboard because i was using swift key keyboard. Now i cannot enter my phone, so i think that i should do s factory reset but i cant do that. I know that i saw a factory reset option on the sony software updater on my pc because i wanted to update my phone. Also when i tried to root my phone i could not flash it some broken driver issue (was not able to fix) so i finally rooted it with the root tool kit. Well please help me with this. Also i assume that the restore point didnt work. Please help :crying: :crying:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Hmm. So you deleted your /data/app folder and most of the apps are gone? Whoops! lol And you are rooted. Do you have a custom recovery? I'm assuming so since you said you tried to restore a backup, is that correct? It would probably just be easiest to factory reset in recovery as that will remove the password and then when it boots, you can restore the keyboard app. Other option is trying to remove the password in recovery (has to be custom) with adb commands as you won't be able to while booted due to the password.

Any ideas what it means?

Don't seem to have any functional problems apart from the gallery app FC occasionally and I've had a couple of random reboots.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If it only happens at boot, it's just a minor annoyance / glitch that I have seen on various builds of CM on other devices. You can try to clear the cache / data of the phone app in Settings / Applications / All and see if that helps. Can also try clearing cache and dalvik cache in recovery and fixing permissions. That or wait till there is a more stable version of CM for your phone and update.

Gallery issue - same thing - clear the cache and data stuff in the Application section of Settings. This could be due to not using the best set of Gapps for your setup as well.

For random reboots, that can be kernel related. I'd double check the thread for CM to see if there are suggestions for another kernel or fix for that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valiceemo:
Thanks. I've tried clearing the dalvik and it still happens. I'll try clearing app cache in settings.

If I clear the data in the gallery app will it wipe all my photos and vids?

Nope, clearing that will not delete pics, just resets the thumbnails and such.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bodosko:
I recently bought a tab 3 SM-T210R in USA and it only have 4 languages (English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, I think)

I want to change to portuguese (Brazil), but I can't. I've already tried some apps that are said to enable more language with no success (MoreLocale2)

So now I think I will have to flash another firmware that comes with more languages, right?

My question is, what firmware do I have to flash? Please, recommend me one. I prefer sticking to a firmware with no or fewer mods as possible.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian D:
Here is the SM-T210 site for firmware for Brazil. However, I do not know if T210 firmware will work on a T210R device. I do not know what the major or minor differences are. Maybe it is just regional and the 210R is for US users while the 201R is for international users. The firmware is different by name but that is all I know.

Added: According to this page - "The only differences between SM-T210 and SM-T210R that we could find are on the supported internal memory and external memory. The SM-T210 support 8/16GB (two version) and only up to 32GB for the external memory in comparison to SM-T210R that only has 8GB internal memory version but supports up to 64GB for the external memory."

So there is a very good possibility that loading the 210 onto the 210R will work. But I cannot guarantee this to be true. Only someone who has tried it can tell you.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr. grieves:
A few days ago I looked at my phone and the 'Device Options' menu kept appearing over and over as if someone was holding the power button down. I managed to turn off the phone and since then I haven't been able to get it to reboot. The phone will boot to either the 'SAMSUNG' or 'Samsung Galaxy SIII' logo screens and then the screen goes blank. I can occasionally get the phone to start booting into recovery mode but it turns off before getting to the menu, same thing with download mode. This seems to be getting worse as well, as the first few times I tried to get to recovery mode I could at least get to the menu before it turned off.

The phone will not charge either. I can get the charging indicator (red LED) to come on if I remove battery, plug in USB cable then reinsert battery. However, the battery does not actually get a charge when I do this.

I have tried swapping in fresh batteries, removing SD card, removing SIM card with no effect. I tried taking the phone apart and I can't see any problems with the power switch.

Any ideas on what is going on? I am two months out of warranty. I have ordered a USB jig since I thought it was bricked from a firmware/software issue but now I am wondering if it is actually a power button problem.

The phone is a Rogers Galaxy SIII, not rooted, running stock firmware.

Thanks.

Long story, but I lost my /system folder on my stock Att xt1058 running 4.4.2.

I have an unlocked bootloader.

Can anyone upload to a Dropbox, or somewhere else, just the system partition so I can restore via nandroid on TWRP? Otherwise I am stuck waiting for the SBF, since I can no longer downgrade.

Thanks
[Moto X Q&A] Ctrl-Freak:
Well...

This is untested, but it is a flashable zip that I made from a dump of my ATT 4.4.2 /system. The kernel is included within the zip, but it is not automatically flashed, and you will need to use fastboot to flash it. (I intended this to be used with safestrap..)

165.44.1.ghost_att: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407581236

Let me know if this flashable zip works. I will post it with the instructions for locked bootloaders...
[Moto X Q&A] cpetersen2791:
Will work on this in a few hours.

Just so I am clear, flash zip in recovery, pull boot.img out of the zip, and flash boot.img manually via fastboot. Right?
[Moto X Q&A] Ctrl-Freak:
Exactly.
[Moto X Q&A] cpetersen2791:
I see it was downloaded 9 times before me. I didn't have any luck with both TWRP and Philz's recovery. Flash stalled on "extracting system files" for 5+ minutes.

I would take the entire TWRP backup if you can upload that.

UPDATE: I deleted the boot.img out of the zip file, and it flashed, then manually flashed boot.img.

UPDATE 2: No radio, nor wifi to connect...Suggestions? I feel i am so close!

[Moto X Q&A] Ctrl-Freak:
I can say that the 4.4 modem works fine with 4.4.2. Are you running a 4.4.x modem? If so, you might be experiencing "the radio" problem (One symptom, is that it shows "unknown" in status.)

This radio problem has plagued me in safestrap. No matter what 4.4.x rom I tried to flash, if I was already running 4.4.x, I could not TWRP /system, fastboot boot.img and keep a working radio. I had no idea the problem might persist with an unlocked bootloader's TWRP.

In the past, to fix the radio problem, I always need to downgrade to 4.2.2 (using fastboot->system, boot, modem and recovery.) Then I root, safestrap, load 4.4.x rom using safestrap's TWRP, then fastboot radio and kernel. After that the radio problem disappears.

However... Other people seem to be successful by doing a factory reset in safestrap's TWRP. For instance, look at these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/development/rom-krypton-v1-1-4-13-2014-t2716657

Previously, I looked at a rom that was intended for the above instructions. That rom basically did the same as mine: It formatted and loaded /system.
[Moto X Q&A] cpetersen2791:
Those are all Verizon Radio's. Do you think I can grab the ATT version 4.4 radio and manually flash? I have that sbf available. Or will the Verizon work in an ATT xt1058
[Moto X Q&A] Ctrl-Freak:
Sorry. I wasn't telling you to get that rom or the Verizon radio, I was pointing out that a factory reset in TWRP may help with the radio issue.

So I am guessing that you took the OTA to originally get to 4.4.2. You should already be running that modem. If that is true, I would not change it.
[Moto X Q&A] cpetersen2791:
I factory reset prior to installing, should i wipe /system as well? I am running AOSP roms (PAC) now, and there is no problem with the radio.

I took the OTA, so I dunno what the radio problem would be. Wifi wouldn't turn on either, so i dunno if it's just a radio issue.

i am fortunate to be unlocked bootloader, so i got a copy of the GPE xt1053 posted here as well, and it appears it will work. I think i am gonna try to flash that, then your files w/o a wipe. How does that sound? Unless you got other ideas.
[Moto X Q&A] Ctrl-Freak:
I do not fully understand the radio/wifi issue, so all of my ideas would be trial and error. Give your plan a go and let us know. I would love to know what causes this issue, as a solution should help us using safestrap.
[Moto X Q&A] cpetersen2791:
Another thought. Maybe I have to flash the radio, even though I haven't changed. Kind of like flashing the boot.img. I haven't changed that either, but it had to be flashed to boot.

Do you know where I can grab the radio IMG? Can't seem to find it around.

I supposed I can pull it from Att 4.4 sbf. Which files tho, just the Non-hlos.bin file? I don't have the xml here @ the office so I don't know what to look for.

Thanks again for your help

[Android General] Gozzeh:
So I've been looking at the various android car stereos and realising all of them have serious problems (Shame the manufacturer won't just open source the bloody things).

But I recently read about AMD's new systems on a socket and wondered if it would be possible to build a dual booting android and windows head unit. You can pick up a Sempron 3850 and micro ATX motherboard for under £70 (which covers CPU and GPU). I must admit I'm interested in a 1080p lilliput touch screen, then need to add the usuals such as a wifi + 3G/4G dongle, TV/DAB Radio tuner and a GPS unit. The only real joy that I can figure is how to mount the thing. The number of double din units is severely limited. I found this one:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bybyte-Double-Mini-ITX-Carputer-Enclosure/dp/B0076PF92Q

But it doesn't look like you can stick a dvd drive in. Ideally I'd like one that I can slide the screen out the way and stick a DVD in but the number of double din car stereo cases is pretty limited.

So has anyone done anything like this? Am I mad or does this seem like a good idea? It would be great to be able to dual boot android and windows 7/8 on such a beast :)
