I've heard of this mythical beast for a while now. When will it appear to us? Is waiting on this unblocker like.........well.........waiting on Bigfoot?

Hello, i have a new THL w200s (Octa core mediatek with 1gb ram)

The m.facebook.com works great, along with every other application i tried, except facebook app and messenger.

The facebook apps shows every information (new posts, likes and everythning) but it doesnt show pics, it takes TOO LONG to show even the avatars of my friends in my news activity. If i let it open for like an hour it would start showing some pics but not the entire start page.

Any hint why is that happening? Same with messenger, it shows the conversations but takes forever to show the profile pics.

Google didnt help me to find a solution. Thanks in advance.

P.S. i Already cleared data and cache, doesnt help.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JustTheHustle:
So,

Today, i received my 2013 Nexus 7 refurbished.

I open it.

Google screen comes up.

Then comes the rom.

It boots into a Asus Rom running 4.2.2 with debug apps on board. Very interesting I might add

Just thought I would share this.

Bootloader came unlocked.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] TheManii:
Could you make a nandroid of it before wiping it?

Also, could you make note of what bootloader version it is?

It's not unheard of for mixups to occur, multiple N4 factory roms have been found for various reasons.

If you're able to make a nandroid, you can use this command while in adb while in the recovery to dump the bootloader:

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/aboot of=/sdcard/bootloader.aboot.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/radio of=/sdcard/radio.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/sbl1 of=/sdcard/bootloader.sbl1.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/sbl2 of=/sdcard/bootloader.sbl2.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/sbl3 of=/sdcard/bootloader.sbl3.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/rpm of=/sdcard/bootloader.rpm.img
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/tz of=/sdcard/bootloader.tz.img

(the wifi 2013 n7 has a copy of the radio, if you happen to be able/willing to dump the bootloader)

I'd be very interested in getting a copy of the files, it's very rare for stuff like this to leak.

It's also even rarer in that it's a working 4.2.2 rom, you might as well be literally the only person in the world outside of asus that has a working 4.2.2 rom for the 2013 n7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JustTheHustle:
I actually wasn't able to. Shortly after, the tablet crashed and wouldn't boot at all, tried everything i could but nothing, i am getting it exchanged by the seller for a new, fingers crossed it has the same Asus ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Azaruddin:
Hai

am having Samsung Galaxy Core Duos GT-I8262

I had rooted my core with frama root.

Then i flashed the PhilZ Touch CWM recovery using the following method

•	Terminal emulator (root) :

- put recovery.img file on internal sdcard

- open terminal emulator

- type :

Code:

su

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=dev/block/mmcblk0p13

When i entered the CWM recovery for the first time after i flashed it. I selected reboot system now it prompted me disable recovery flash. then I selected disable recovery flash.

I had successfully installed PhilZ Touch CWM.

one fine day i received a Software update from Samsung then i unrooted my core and i tried to install that software update i cant able to do that because am of PhilZ Touch CWM then i flashed the stock recovery and i installed that software update.

Then again I rooted my core and I tried the flash PhilZ Touch CWM recovery 6.27.3

now the problem is when i entered the recovery for the first time after i flashing it when i select the reboot the system now it is not showing the disable recovery flash option. And the stock recovery is reflashed again

.

Some one help me how to resolve this issue :mad::rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Azaruddin:
[Solved]Problem in flashing PhilZ Touch CWM recovery 6.27.3 after the software update

Atlast i got the solution for this problem the stock ROM flashes the stock recover after the phone get rebooted.

To avoid this we have to the following steps

•	go to /system/etc/

•	rename the file install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh.bak

•	then flash the PhilZ Touch Recovery

If you want the stock recovery back inoder to install the software update

•	go to /system/etc/

•	rename the file install-recovery.sh.bak to install-recovery.sh

•	then the stock recovery will be reflased
[General Questions and Answers] mcmacker4:
Hi, I have got a bit of a doubt here:

I am currently using CyanogenMod 10.2 on my Samsung Galaxy Trend aka Samsung Galaxy Ace 2x. Now I want to try and go back to the stock rom (TouchWiz from Samsung) but I may want to come back to CyanogenMod so I want to backup the whole current rom (apps included) but since the apps are installed in the sd, will ClockWork Mod's Recovery backup only the data in the internal memory? Will it also backup apps installed in the sd card? Will it backup the whole sd card?

What exactly will ClockWork Mod's recovery do when I press Backup?

Just downloaded NextRadio app from the play store. Turned OFF my wifi and data and the app worked with no issues. Thought it was gonna be some internet based app but it work solely on the the FM transmitter. SWEET!!!!

Check out there site:

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] andyistic:
Whoa! Is this absolutely certain?

Why would other carriers remove this?

Maybe it interferes with their data reception?

This requires further investigation.

I do like that we're regaining full use of the Galaxy S5, despite attempts from the carriers to opress us, at least with Sprint.

S Radio is better

Just wanna pass on that the Hybrid Radio app found in the "ported S5 apps" thread works the same way as NextRadio. Move to System/app reboot and voila. It works with no kinks. Plus, it's the bloatware originally designed for the phone, from the international version I believe.

Anyway.....it does work.

MOTO X SLAPPED
[Moto X General] Jamolah:
because voice actions have been around for at least 4 years. This could have easily been implemented 2 years ago.
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Yes, but was our hardware ready? I don't think our socs were efficient enough to be able to go through day without draining battery with ability to listen to voice 24x7. Snapdragon 80x is first range to have that built in. Moto X had to use sperate low powered chip for it.

From my Moto X, in your face!
[Moto X General] Jamolah:
These low power chips could have been incorporated into the architecture years ago, as well.

This is besides the point let's get back to the point at hand. Glad Google is doing this
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
If they could, they would. Semiconductor industry does not wait if it could manufacture something new with good yields and sell it. If it can be done, it will be done and put into production as soon as possible.

Otherwise we would have snapdragon 805 or exynos 6 powered phones already. But chips were not ready.

That is not how things work. If someone sits on something, someone else will come out with that stuff.

It is the main restriction for lot of things in this industry as well as tech industry. One thing to have a concept, completely other thing to have hardware ready for mass production to implement that concept.

2 years so we simply did not have consumer grade hardware for this.

Google now itself is not even 2 years old yet.

From my Moto X, in your face!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
Would it be possible to only use medianet unlimited with Vonage, and dump cingulars over priced voice plan. I mean, being that Vonage operates soely on your internet connection, why wouldn't it work on medianet or Cingulars PDA plan, vica versa. Pitcure it, you get unlimited calls to US and Canada, all the goodies like call waiting, three way calling and caller I-D, all for $29.95. That beats out Cingulars 450 daytime, 5000 night and weekends, for $39.95 any day.

So, is it possible? And if not, why?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DeniaL:
I don't think that it would work because I believe Vonage is VoIP which is kinda like skype and the GPRS network isn't fast enough for that. Feel free to correct me (anyone?) if i'm wrong though.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
But what about edge, wifi, or 3G. Wouldn't those be fast enough?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DeniaL:
edge is the same as GPRS, its the cellular data network. Edge I don't believe is fast enough. Wifi is fast enough, but you have to overclock your phone in order for it to actually work well...or at all. Not sure what 3G is, so I can't comment on that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
It's theoretically possible. There's a version of SJPhone that works with Vonage and runs on the WM5. All you need is a soft phone on your vonage acct and SJPhone should be able to connect over GPRS or WiFi.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
Can you elaborate on this a little more. What exactly is soft phone?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
A softphone costs $10/mo on your Vonage account and works with software on your PC. The Vonage interface device isn't required. Every time you connect to the internet with your PC, no matter where in the world this is, your softphone number is available. SJPhone is software that runs on WM5 that allows you to connect to your softphone number on Vonage in the same way.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matrix849:
Alright I have the software SJPhone, I found the beta version for WM5. And I am sure that even before I install it that there will be some configuration required for vonage.....

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fone_fanatic:
Cingular is one step ahead of you... Kind of. There was an article about 2 weeks ago and cingular said they don't mind that people are using VOIP on their network. But Edge isn't fast enough. I have Skype on my device and running it via Edge is worthless, so get yourself a Hermes adn move to a 3g(umts) city and Voila, your golden!

I just got back from houston and they're selling the HTC TyTn for $1,099.99. You can get it on ebay for $779.99 with 29.99 shipping from Cali.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matrix849:
I have activated a vonage softphone but I am having trouble with the configuration. If anyone had some light to shed on the subject that would be great. The guide I am looking at looks like it is just about to turn 2 years old.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matrix849:
IT WORKS!!!!!!!! well I initialized a call I can't really test it though cuz the wife is sleeping and if I make the phone ring too much she'll get peeved. The above configuration is good, just don't bother with the proxy stuff just put the domain in..... i followed their screens just a little too well.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fone_fanatic:
what connection u using it on?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
The only issue with SJPhone I saw was, like skype, it would be "speakerphone only". I'm guessing GPRS would be fine for the connection if you use a low speed audio codec.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matrix849:
Well I lied i made 1 phone call and that was it it doesn't work now :( I don't know what i did

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matrix849:
I talked with the wife for 45 mins while using wifi, I used the headset supplied with the phone because I have not figured out how to incorporate my Moto H700 with it, but otherwise it was great. The edge at my house is only so-so, therefore I will say that using this with edge so far has been impossible. When I go to work tommorow I will let you know if it works better where I know there is 100% edge, and when I am not on the fringe of a network.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
Theory into practice it would seem. Nicely done matrix849! I'd always wanted to try this but never really had the time to spare.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
Seems as though the tytn would be the best way to really test if this would be absolutely possible. I mean with its 3G technology and all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
Wow did it really. This would be awsome if it really did work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ntornics:
This is awsome. So basically, in-order for this to work sufficiently, you'll have to have a device with a strong enough internet cconnection, such as 3G, wifi or mabey even edge. Well if this is the case, I might consider dumping Cingular's voice all together, when I save up enough for the Tytn. Or mabey I'm jumping the gun here a little bit.

Mabey one of the genius's here can come up with a cab that'll make all the necessary configurations for it to work, alongside SJPhone.
