[HTC One X] DaSpydaDon:
SOLVED! - at least for me.

I've had my X for about two years now and it started exhibiting the camera error symptom a couple of days ago.

I've done exhaustive research over several Forums, including this one and the "official" HTC Forums - all to no avail.

I've reset my phone to factory defaults a couple times, tried installing other camera apps, etc. Still, nothing "permanently" worked. The camera would boot up, and then crash immediately.

So, after ordering a new HTC One (M8), I spent some time with the X to try everything I could, no matter what it was.

This is what worked for me:

I sent all my pics to Google Drive, and made sure everything was synced

I removed my SIM card (no instructions I read in any Forum stated to do this)

I reset the phone to factory default

When it cycled through the erasure of data and rebooted, I skipped the Google sign-in procedure (including choosing a WiFi network) and got the phone settled to "Emergency Calls Only" (DO NOT CHOOSE THAT OPTION IN THE SIGN-UP PROCEDURE - ALWAYS CHOOSE "SKIP")

Then, I inserted my SIM card, and waited a few seconds to handshake with my carrier's network.

I didn't have to fool with disabling anything, and all features worked - even the camera and another downloaded app - Camera FV-5 (which is awesome, BTW).

Once I confirmed things were back to normal, I went to the PlayStore and downloaded all my apps.

Yep, still working!!!

I've been assembling and troubleshooting PC's for almost 20 years and this is one of the first times that I have come across a unique fix to a very common problem on any device I've seen.

Hope this works for you, too!

SideSync is a new PC-Mobile solution that enables the screens, windows and data to be shared easily between PC and Galaxy smartphone,

or between Galaxy Tab and Galaxy smartphone.

It works for me (I'm on windows 8.1 Update 1 on my PC and on Android 4.4.2 on my Galaxy S4 GT-I9505)

Download the PC app here (Direct Link):

It doesn't work with custom rom. Any ways to solve this problem?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] fletch33:
it probably relies on some sammy stock apps and if your rom doesnt have them it wont work. i am on custom rom for N3 that is a full stock S5 port so my N3 is just like s S5 and it works for me.
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] harland3:
Anybody have a mirror for the apk? Mega isn't working right now.

Also, Mega sucks in general. What kind of service will let you download directly from the website on the PC, but requires that you download their stupid app if it sees a mobile User Agent? That's some shady crap right there, but it's par for the course when it comes to Kim Dotcom.

EDIT: Never mind, the app is on Google Play and you can download it that way if you have a compatible Galaxy device.

Found some forum topics dealing with this. They advise to tweak it in the registry. Sorry, pretty new here, how do you get to this 'registry'? Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Sleuth255:
Welcome to XDA Developers! There are volumes of information here on the topic. My best advice to you is to start reading up on your device by following threads here. Your issue will have two seperate solutions depending on what AKU your device runs. The AKU is the last 3 decimals of the Windows build number in settings/general/about. If yours is 2.0.0 then you will need levenum's taskbar app (look for this in the development and hacking forum) to fix or you will need to upgrade to a 2.3.0 build using Summiter's multi-installer (look for this in the Wizard Upgrading forum). If yours is already 2.3.0 then you will need to do the enabling reghack. All this information exists here and the good news is that all the solutions I listed are free! Search is your friend and there are large volumes of knowledge you need to acquire. Have fun learning to master your device!

The original thread

secondary thread

i made an app with tasker app factory that enables ethernet

it should work on most if not all phone/tablets that are android 4.x.x up

this app uses:

svc wifi disable

svc wifi enable

svc data disable

svc data enable

#!/system/bin/sh

busybox ifconfig eth0 up

dhcpcd eth0

and some bells and whistles:

start on boot

Two notifications that you tap to turn off/on ethernet

And a notification that will ping google.com to tell you it worked

for this app to work for you you need:

otg cable

usb ethernet adapter

busybox and

root.

root is for

svc wifi disable

svc wifi enable

svc data disable

svc data enable

busybox ifconfig eth0 up

dhcpcd eth0

and see what the app dose in superSU logs

i hope you all like it

the app is in the zip file

............................INJOY!.............................

Bugs you tell me.

feel free to share this to anyone

just spread the word

..........................

CHEER

.............................

i found an Xposed framework app that Hacks the Connectivity Service

this allow you to use apps that need wifi to run on eth0/ethernet.

i got the app from here

you can also get the app from the Attach Files.

All credit gos to who ever made the app and to Xposed framework that made it possible.

i just tested it and it works well at lest it lets me downlode apps from google play now.

cheer!!

This is the USB Ethernet adapter that I use

Working with:

Note 10.1 2014 edition

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Samsung Galaxy S3

Samsung Galaxy S4

Google Nexus 10

Google Nexus 5

LG G Pad 8.3 works on android 4.4.2

You can get the app from Google play

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] danarama:
I haven't any way to test it but eth0 up as a terminal command definitely allows use of usb Ethernet connection on the n5 if that's what you wanted to know?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] USBhost:
busybox ifconfig eth0 up

dhcpcd eth0

Then this will work

Then I will add it to the working devices
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] beloero:
Works perfect. Got a Ping response with USB OTG -> Apple USB Ethernet Adapter.

=)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] USBhost:
V1.3.3

Added the super user permissions. So the su won't say not declared in xml.

Added a new notification that uses ping. So far no bugs.

Restored start of the app root Will be called. That will fix some hiccups.

Fixed the bug if you turned off wifi then reboot the enable notification will appear.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] USBhost:
V1.3.4

Did some changes to the ping

Added: a fail safe that you will not accidentally enable eth0 without the usb ethernet adapter connected

Also it will tell you if your device will work with the app. If it won't enable then it won't work.

But some devices may still work on a newer android version?

Nexus 7 was the hardest since OTG is utterly broken on almost every ROM. Must use CM based rom and above kernel and cifs module for the kernel or it wont work.

Tested on Ethernet network, can log into hard line router and managed switch.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] USBhost:
The reason why I won't put the nexus 7 2012 in working devices because it has the ethernet driver.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] dvdivx:
Had to do that to get the N7 to see external and network HDDs. Biggest complaint is probably from people not reading that you have to install busybox first or it won't work. You should repost a neg comment if it includes they cant find where to put the ethernet cable in their phone just for laughs.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Commodore 64:
The stats you posted shows there isn't much running in the background. I would say do a factory reset:

Turn the phone off

Hold volume up+home+power buttons

Use volume keys to scroll down to wipe data+cache. Power button to select. Warning: your apps and progress are gonna be gone.

Let it boot up normally. Start installing apps and setup your phone. It takes 2 or 3 charge cycles and a couple of reboots to reach optimized battery usage.

Tip: dialing *#*#4636#*#*

1- you can check the health state of your battery (does it charge to 100%? My battery voltage at 74% charge is 4013mV)

2- you can go to device information and turn off LTE from preferred network types. This saves battery when phone is sitting idle or if you're on your homes WiFi and it is faster than LTE anyway
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
I really appreciate your help man. I really really don't want to factory reset but I guess I have no choice

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] gainstatom:
I was wondering. How bad is your battery life? How much percent after a minute and stuff like that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
Do you mean fast does my batter % per minute? How do I check that without staring at my batter for a minute?

Today's battery cycle is slightly better

I am at 21% with 8 hrs 22 min on battery and 4 hrs 35 min screen on time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] skyrocketeer:
Might be the apps that you've installed because I regularly get 16+hrs on battery with 6+ hours of screen on time without power save mode.

Click android os and see how long CPU awake time is
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
I got around 1.5 hours
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Yeah, you definitely have something going on there. Assuming don't have power hungry apps running in the background, I would say you either gotta do a factory reset or swap out the battery. Those stats are definitely not normal.

I'll get the screen on time up to about 7.5hrs before it dies out on me on this cycle. After the few few initial cycles, my stats have evened out and become more consistent. Have you tried doing a hard power cycle by removing the battery and keeping it out for at least a minute? If not, I would give that a try before your next full charge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] abraxo:
I'm also experiencing pretty subpar battery (I disabled all the bloatware etc.). It was rapidly draining at first but I managed to 'slow it down'. That being said, I only charged this phone once since I just got it. Is it possible that my battery will 'optimize' after a few cycles or should I save myself the trouble and factory reset now?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
I have not tried a hard power cycle. Can you elaborate more on that. I just have to wait till my phone is dead and take the battery out for a minute

I would say give it 3-4 cycles I'm on my 4th and if I don't see any improvement I guess I'll factory reset
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] ravennyc:
Going thru all your posts. I picked up my phone 2 days ago. Charged it to 100% once (the night I picked up the S5). Monitoring the improvements after a few cycles.

Below is the consumption after 1 full charge.

Going to plug it in now for a full charge.. will post tomorrow. Fingers crossed that it improves.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
What's your screen on time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Yup, that's basically all you do. Either let it die completely or have it a few % off from dying, take it out and let it sit for at least a minute. I'd keep it out for about 5 minutes, though. Pop it back in, fully charge and see if anything has changed. If not, it looks like a factory reset or replacing the battery would be your next steps, unfortunately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:

I have a bell s3 so I always just flash the pre_rooted stock image and a custom recovery. By having root, I can uninstall the bloated apps.

There is no estimate. For future reference, asking for any kind of estimated time is generally frowned upon as the insanely hard working devs here on xda have a ton of stuff on their plates BEFORE you add in actually working on any device.
