Sorry if my english is not enoght to explain my situation. Hope you can help me with my problem.

Well, like 9 weeks ago, my cellphone stoped to work normaly, I called rogers to asked what happened. At first they didnt gave me a solution, they just told me to sent my device to technical support. After wait 8 days, I received a call to go pick up my device, when I was there they told me that my cellphone was blacklisted. I didnt understand why because i bought my celllphone at rogers in october. So they told to wait 2 business day to get unblacklisted. After wait more than 4 days, my cellphone was still not working so I decided to call rogers to ask. They told me again to wait 2 business day again because the mistaked was did for Asurion who is the company who offer the device protection services. Asurion put my device in the blacklist for error. Well guys then a lot of calls and chats and till now I dont have any solution and I still pay for my cellphone. Im really desesperate because I work with it and I already lost a lot of money. I just called yesterday to rogers and they told me that they can not do anything because this case is now in the president office. I called asurion to times and they told me the same, they cant do anything. So what to di guys? Hope you can help me. Rogers already gave 2 value packs for free, its 24 dollas. I paid for my cellphone more than 100 because me and my family have 4 phones with rogers. Its not ridicul what they gave me?

Hope you understand what i want to explain and hope you will help me. I will be here to answer all the questions. If someone are thinking that this device is stoled I can send proof that the device is mine. No problem. Thank you.

You're going to have to hope they get it off the blacklist. Changing your imei is illegal in many countries.

[Asus Transformer TF700] User_5573:
Hello XDA Friends,

First, some background on my question. My last device had a locked bootloader, so I could flash roms and could even get recovery, but I could never change the kernel. Thus, I never learned about custom kernels. Today, however, I have a Asus Transformer Infinity with an unlocked bootloader and a Cyanogenmod 11 nightly installed. There are several nice kernels I'm looking to try. My tablet also has a Tegra 3 process I'm eager to overclock, and so we arrive at my question.

Can I flash the MaxKernel, or other kernel, under Cyanogenmod without issues? I assume that my TF700T is still using the stock kernel right now, but are all kernels compatable with all roms? Also, I welcome any constructive comments, information, or external reading on kernels you you have to offer.

Thanks in advance,

User_5573
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You are very limited what you can flash for CM11 I'm afraid.

If you look in my crombi-kk thread I include 3 kernels in my rom (I never released them seperately) that are basically variants of the asus stock kernel with the CM11 ramdisk to make them work with CM11. They bring good improvements especially _that's kernel.

To make a kernel work with CM11 you have to take the originalkernel zimage and add the CM11 ramdisk. You also need to include the modules for wifi/bluetooth from the original kernel and then edit the init.cardhu.rc in the ramdisk to load them via the insmod command.

If that all sounds a but technical - flash my crombi-kk rom (CM11 base) and be done with it ;)

So my waterproof cover was closed and I was blasting music. My phone fell into a water stream I was washing dishes. Instantly my speakers started sucking and it hasn't been the same (about 30 mins ago). I thought this phone was water proof?!?! the rest of the phone is working fine. I opened up the case, no water inside. I am confused to say the least!

Do you think the speakers are screwed? I don't understand this. Its past my return period should have tried this the first day I got it!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
The phone is water resistant, not waterproof. Also give it a little more time, the speakers will go back to normal.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electric0ant:
There is water on the speaker membrane which distorts the sound and makes it quieter. Once it dries out you will be fine.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekguyny:
Thank you. Do you think I should keep the phone off?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icecubed17:
Nope, don't worry about it. Your speaker is still wet just give it more time.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D33KK:
Happened to me when I went in the shower, the earpiece where you listen to people on calls went really quiet and tinny for a few hours.

I crapped myself lol but you just gotta be patient and the water will leave the phone :P
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksssss:
I have washed my phone several times. Also I have taken shots in a pool underwater. My phone doesn't have any problems. Remember you cant listen to music or talk on the phone immediately after you take it out of the water. The speakers are full of water and you have to give them some time.

S5 speaker

Bros.. I did the same thing... I dropped it in the water. And now.... after @30 mins the speakers seem to be like... Soud like the membeane is punctured. Can that be? I gave it a lot of shooks and I 'smacked' it, so to say, with the back of it to my upper foot, so that the water could get out faster... Was that bad? :((:confused:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakrider:
no longer working after getting wet.

I was sitting in water that was not even deep enough for the water to cover my legs playing with my grandson for about 20 minutes. I was told my the salesperson the Galaxy S5 was waterproof not water resistant for up to 30 minutes. No water depth was specified either. When I got out of the water, my phone would not turn on and I took off my otterbox because it had water in it. I then took off the back cover and found it had water inside it and on the battery. I have now had it drying out with the battery out for 8 hours. I tried it again and it still will not come on. I have to say though that it was starting to act up before it got submerged in water. The last several days it would not wake sometimes unless I took the back off and took the battery out and put it back in. The camera the last two days has been not wanting to work sometimes too. Or sometimes it would hang up. I have had this phone less than a year. I bought it right before the S6 came out. I think there is an issue with this phone besides the water issue. I have googled the other problems and they seem to be common with the S5.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swimguy14:
there's got to be more to the story..this phone, if the back cover is completely snapped on + charging flap closed, can be fully submerged in up to 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes with absolutely no harm done to the phone. That's the manufacturers specs.

Personally, I jumped into a lake off the back of a boat with the phone in my hand (while recording video) and proceeded to swim around for about 45 minutes with the phone in my hand the entire time.

I'd say the deepest it went was around 5 feet.

As you can imagine there was a lot of pressure hitting it in all directions due to the swimming aspect..anyway point being, nothing was damaged.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cormacfaul12:
I dropped my S5 in the toilet yesterday and I quickly removed it from the toilet. The toilet was almost empty and only the top part of the phone where you put your earphones in got wet. I have put it in rice but it is still not working. The bottom part didn't have the safety guard on but it didn't get wet. Why is it not working?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidjunkees:
let the s5 dry up completely before turning it on
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Algebruh_m9:
The difference between water-resistant to water proof is that water proof is impervious to fluids which means it doesn't allow not even a drop of liquid into the phone which only works with waterproof cases.. Water-resitance which the galaxy s5 has can withstand the penetration of water. Keep in mind taking it for a dive has some risks.. Make sure to completely dry off the phone once your done using it in the pool. It's normal for the speaker to sound muffle for a couple of hours.. Same goes for the microphone.. You won't be able to call or use any app that uses the microphone once you take it out of the pool. Just wait for it to dry off in a couple of hours!

Cheers!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DothrakiITA:
Hi guys,

I'm having some troubles with my Xperia S and CM11 or PA.

When I restart my device it shows me the date of 08 february 1972, but I checked and today is 10 May 2014 :D.

So for this issue some apps (like whatsapp, gplay services, hangout...) don't run immediately but they show me an error and I have to wait the sync, and the sync is never istant and when it takes too much time I have to switch off the wifi to force the sync with data mobile. [It's not a wifi problem because it happened also when wifi is disabled from the start].

I can't post pics because is my first post, i can tell you what i see:

- the date is 08/02/1972;

- there are some notifications with a triangle and that is reported: "an application attemped to us...." or "your phone date is inaccurated! Adjust your ..."

- when I click on that notification pop up the date and time settings.

Hope you can help me.

Sorry for my english.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
This is a known bug in PA. Your date get resets on every reboot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DothrakiITA:
Thanks for the reply.

So, untill CM11 or PA fix that, exists any other "stable" rom with 4.4.2 that hasn't that bug?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Well, no ROM is bug free,but there are ROM which have less bugs. You can use Carbon ROM v4, all most no bugs. Or if You want to use the latest v8, there is a beep beep sound in the call(the call waiting one) and don't use Google Now Launcher in it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DothrakiITA:
I know that any rom is bugs free, but this bug is very annoying, especially for person like me that use the apps of the phone as alarm clock.

So I'm looking for a rom with Kit Kat at that is almost stable.

Carbon rom v4 is based on Kit Kat? If yes, can you link me where can I download the zip (and, if there is a particular gapps, also the link for this)?

Thanks for the reply! Cya

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Android Bob:
As a work around until there is a better solution you could use Google Play ClockSync

If you've unlocked the bootloader and have root access on your Xperia LT26i, ClockSync is a very good way to sync time and date at boot.

It'll even correct daylight saving and time zones if they've changed over the years.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DothrakiITA:
Thx, I will try that this week end.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reg2net:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
Not a bug that's what's Samsung decided to implement in the latest update
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droiderr:
i think that was there before too..

The whole point of a pattern or pin lock is too prevent the lock screen from opening unless correct input is provided. Whereas lockscreen widgtes take u directly inside..

If they were enabled with pattern/pin lock the whole idea of security would be defeated as anyone copuld open your phone just by swiping them. Its a logical enhancement and not a bug.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuromusha38:
sometimes I want to see the widget without unlocking my phone. And how I want to unlock my phone is my choice, whether password or pattern or none. But I should be able to see my widget.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droiderr:
i widget is kind of a short cut. If you swipe it across it opens up the correspoding app and also unlocks the phone simultaneously. This cant be done in case of pateern/pin lock,

not really, MohammadAG had an xposed plugin that allowed widgets on locked samsung TW, shame it doesn't work on 4.4 devices...samsung is ****e for taking away such feature
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droiderr:
yeah i know there was a way. But on a non rooted stock device its not possible. And dont blame samsung. Its a development that will be done time i guess; similarly how it was done before :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] EddieK23:
I recently flashed Nebula 3.9 (first 3.6, then updated with 3.9 release) with SafeStrap on my Note 2 Android 4.3 MJ9, and some apps are using much more RAM than they ever did on any other ROM.

Previously, I used stock 4.3, then SkyNote Air, and now N3bula 3.9, and so far only N3bula is giving me RAM troubles.

The following apps are using much more RAM on N3bula 3.9 than on any other ROM I've had:

-SIM Toolkit, about 80mb to 90mb

-Facebook, about 60mb to 70mb

-FB Messenger. about 30mb to 40mb

-Network Location, about 30mb

-Google Contacts Sync, about 30mb

-NFC Service, about 15mb

Those are the top apps that use up my RAM, and they've only been like this since I flashed N3bula 3.9. Does anyone have any idea why and what I could to to fix this? Is it safe for me to Greenify the SIM Toolkit? Because of these apps my RAM is constantly at 70% to 80% used and itgreatly slows down my Note 2.

Thank you in advance.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DHeffernan:
So the phone has been sitting for about a month or so since I got a iPhone 5S. Yesterday I took it out to wipe so I can sell it. Phone was dead which is to be expected due to battery. I charged it up battery read 100% but as soon as I power it up it comes back to the battery screen like its charging..

Then it goes from gray battery screen with a circle to off, and back to that.. for hours. I get into download mode and I wiped it and did a factory reset however I still can't seem to get into the OS.

I managed to get into the OS once but it basically rebooted itself after I did the initial configuration and hitting skip a few times. Now I am having a hard time getting into Download Mode again, it starts to go back simply reboots itself before it gets into it.

What can I do? I am so frustrated with this phone that I am about to smash it to pieces.. the simcard and sd card are removed from the device.

Hi everyone

I have bought QI wireless charging pad and transmitter for my s3 and s4, both rooted and running cm11 kitkat, I flashed Pac rom on s4 and now the phone won't charge when I pace it on the way pad, but the s3 still charge, I tried restore the packed up file to restore the previous rom but still nothing.

Usually when I place the phone on the pad I hear the charging tone and light shows it's charging, but nothing on my s4.

Please let me know if you have any information related to my issue.

(double posted this to try and get help as quick as possible since the phone needs to ship out ASAP)

Hi everyone. I'm an American living in Sweden. I have a unlocked galaxy note 3 that I am going to send my TECHNOPHOBIA suffering mother so she van video chat and see my newborn son for the first time live instead of in snail mailed pictures. She has agreed to try her best to learn because after 4 years of us not seeing each other she is willing to the anything

so here is the advice I need.

Best way to *safety proof* (don't want to call my mom a idiot) the phone.

A way for me to remotely restore the phone to MY settings when she accidentally messes something up and calls me freaking out.

Advice on a service plan. I have good credit in the usa and a social security number. she lives in 70647 Iowa, Louisiana. w

We would like to be able to video chat on skype on demand. But she will not be streaming video or downloading anything but content from dropbox. I would love if there was the option for her to be able to send an sms/mms to my mobile in sweden.

I would like yo put the phone in some *easy* setup. similar to the one included in 4.4.2 BUT my mother will only be using the phone for a few things. Skype facebook and dropbox. Also receiving sms/mms from me only. I would like her to have the ability to call our foreign cellphone numbers though in case of an emergency.

The phone is already rooted and updated to samsung version of 4.4.2. I would happily use another ROM if someone can recommend one that would best suit my needs.

I have a windows desktop running win 7 and an extra note 3 that I will be keeping here to use as well.

Help a lady out please! I desperately want to see my momma.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
N9005 will not work over LTE with most carriers in US, so you should investigate this one first.

Also as a friendlier solution for parents - if they have/buy any large TV set (recent model) they might be able to get one with Skype (usually the Skype camera is a separate item with an inflated price but I believe lately there have been some aggressive price-cuts in some places).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lindadhnorman:
Really,is that a generalized statement or have you read/seen/heard about it somewhere? I've been checking with IMEI on their websites and verify with customer support that it is available to use on some wireless networks at 4G. Also I've had many friends bring over their N-9005 when visiting the USA for holiday and had no problem with connecting to a network. Some used prepaid local purchased cards, other just used the international roaming on their swedish accounts.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
You need to check the frequencies for 4G/LTE - those supported on N9005 are different than most of the US providers. However 3G should work on most.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZ Eddie:
I've been using Big Button Launcher on my Mom's Android phone for a couple years now. It works pretty well and she adapted quickly enough.

It is a "Launcher GUI" that takes over the majority of the Android User Interface.

And you can hide the menu options, hide apps, etc. It's very customizable for YOU to make the end resulting interface VERY SIMPLE and dumbed-down for the end user. And it's been 100% stable over two years and a few different flashes of CyanogenMOD as the OS.

I have to warn you though. My Mom does want a normal phone for her next phone. Something with hard buttons, no texting, no GPS, no nothing but phone call capability. No LCD, nada. lol

Here's a sample desktop you see when you unlock the phone.

Oh, and there are various icon packs on the Play Store so you can choose nicer looking icons for your Mom.

There is also a HUGE keyboard option (if you want it). Still not sure if I like it though, because it really, really is huge. Takes up 2/3 of the screen.
[Networking] FOZZER:
Just a quick question.

Does anyone on the forum know of a piece of software that locks the wifi connection on a PDA ( HP 6915 ) so that the wifi will only connect to one wifi point.

The reason is my employer wishes to supply members of staff with PDA's but wishes to lock down the Wifi connection so that it will only connect to the router in the office, and not connect to any free hotspots.

Any help ???

Thanks to all
[Networking] mb5049:
Good question FOZZER... tell me, who are your employers?

[Networking] levenum:
I think AirScanner has a firewall for Pocket PC based devices. That might work.

By the way, if your employers are worried about viruses (why else block hot spots?) you can put them at ease. I only heard of one for Windows Mobile devices so far and it doesn't do any damage, it's just a proof of concept.
