Hi guys, I have this weird problem when my wifi won't reconnect after I restart my phone..

Also it will disconnect while on standby.

I'm currently on insertcoin 1.7.0 with ex kernel 0.15.

I check all the wifi setting and it all looks good I even dirty install from 1.6.0 to 1.7.0.

Appreciate you help!!

Now fixed...fault identified as being SIM card issue as testing sim in different device produces same results.

Hi,

Bought my partner a Moto G from Tesco and proceeded to unlock it with an unlock code from a web supplier as he wanted to use it with his Orange contract... Phone unlocked without a problem however the carrier name is displayed in the notification bar at the top as loads of @ signs. If you drag the notification bar down the @ signs are displayed at the bottom of the screen. I've attached a screen shot..any one have any ideas what is wrong? Or how to fix this?

Thanks

I wonder what would happen to the extra camera when you flash a stock 4.4.2 ROM. Would it then become useless? And I also wonder what happens to the 'double tap to wake the screen gesture'.

Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craig0r:
Do you mean AOSP? Because stock ROMs are exactly where those two features work. On AOSP, I'm quite sure those features won't be active. Possibly someone could port them over, but then it wouldn't truly be AOSP.

If you mean a Google Play Edition ROM, I don't think the motion gestures will work, but I think the second camera is supposed to be active and functional. Someone who's used a GPE ROM would be able to answer better though, as I'm on Sense, and I'm just pretty sure I read that somewhere.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.dj26:
I dont know about AOSP but on GPE both the motion gesture and the duo camera will work. On gpe just take a pic, go to HTC gallery, and edit the photo you want.

Hi, has anyone tried to increase the call history so that it will be unlimited? It appears that around 300 calls it starts dropping calls. And has anyone figured out a way to copy the call list thru active sync? Thanks, Ken B
[XV6700, PPC-6700 General] sk0t:
I haven't tried to increase it, however I have seen a reg key that leads me to believe it can definitely be changed. I'll see if I can find it again.

Haven't bothered to try copying the call history though.. that's what I usually use my statement for..

Has anyone tried to modify the DWORD Data value?

Over at the PDAphonehome forum a poster "jrider" tried doubling the DWORD Data value and it did not change the limit of just 300 calls. The DDWORD Data value is set at 65535, is there anyone who has found an amount that would make the call history unlimited, or increase it? Thanks, Ken B.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] boricua95:
Having a little trouble accessing google servers while on 4G. I went and tested the nV m8 rom, which worked good. But now when I attempt to completely wipe my device and try another rom for some reason when I get to the part to log into my google account it just hangs there. The only way to get it to connect is while I am on wifi. But as soon as I disconnect the wifi I can no longer access my gmail or the play store. I tried wiping everything even data but it still doing this, is there something I need to do to get this working again? Or better yet has anybody ever heard of this problem before?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] izzaeroth:

whats the difference between those 2 versions of the htc one? the Developer Edition and the Unlocked HTC One (M7)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
On the hardware side, both phones are exactly the same except the dev edition have 64gb memory instead of 32gb

Dev edition firmware normally get ota updates faster than others M7 (except this time with Sense 6, Canadian carriers released the ota a few days before). The dev edition is also bootloader unlocked out of the box so no need to unlock the bootloader trough htc dev and loose your warranty.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shnish:
I recently installed the Kit Kat update and everything is great, except when I tap the screen it makes this crackling or popping sound. Once it makes this sound once, it stops for awhile, however, it comes back if I leave the screen idle. So as long as I'm using it there's no crackling, but it immediately makes the sound after it's touched following a period of inactivity. It's really getting on my nerves and I wanted to know if anyone has had this problem and if anyone knows how to fix it.

My system version is 183.46.10, build version KDA20.62-10.1 on Kernel 3.4.42-g5170b6b running on AT&T with the gsm hack.

Hi guys

The new Virginity V12 is available with ANC2 or ANB1.

what is meant by?

Can anybody explain me which one I have to choose and why?

Thank you
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonryder:
ANB1 and ANC2 are the stock-kernel names (by Samsung)

ANC2 is the latest, ANB1 one version older.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aloha Joe:
I'm on this Kernel.

Which one i have to flash?

Or it's the same?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonryder:
you can´t see in settings which kernel is in use.

Virginity 11 is based on ANA1

Virginity 12 on ANC2

if you flashed V12 so your kernel is the newest (ANC2)

I wanted to switch over to CM on my galaxy s3. I already had my phone rooted however I completely forgot that the bootloader wasn't unlocked. So now I get the "System software not authorized by verizon blah blah blah.." message when I turn my phone on and up in the left corner it says "secure fail: kernel".

This normally wouldn't be that big of a problem. I would just enter download mode and use odin to restore my phone. However I can't enter download mode at all. My down volume button doesn't work. Its been like that for a while. It clicks and everything but it doesn't do anything at all. Sometimes if I pressed it continuously and in a certain spot it would finally work for like 2 clicks but it seemed to be random. Now I think it has quit working all together. I've been trying to get into download mode for the past few hours and no luck. I even took the phone apart to see if there was something blocking the button on the inside or maybe it wasn't making contact. But everything looks ok on the inside.

So am I basically screwed? Is there no other way to restore my phone? What options do I have?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
A couple weeks ago somebody had the exact same problem as you. He eventually figured out that a USB jig was all he needed. It will throw you right into Odin mode. You can buy them for a dollar if you shop around.

Thank you! I've never heard of those before but I just ordered one on ebay. Hopefully it works out.
[Sony Xperia ZL] krsagar:
My Sony Xperia ZL is NOT booting up unless it has an external power supply. The phone vibrates, shows the SONY bootscreen, and then dies. Also, the phone runs perfectly until i disconnect it and it simply dies in the blink of an eye. I have an unlocked bootloader and was on CM10.2, flashed the stock ftf for 4.3, then 4.2, and yet nothing worked! My device is just around 8 months old and i doubt that my battery can be dead all of a sudden when it was giving decent backup until today!
[Sony Xperia ZL] srcharged:
I'd advice you to take it to the service center.
[Sony Xperia ZL] krsagar:
my bootloader is unlocked so the warranty will most probably be void. Also, since this is a sudden development, am hoping it's a software problem.
[Sony Xperia ZL] srcharged:
If you have taken a backup of your TA partition, then relock your bootloader before you go to the service center.
[Sony Xperia ZL] peksalvo:
I'm pretty sure that your battery is dead.

i have the same issue, tested with service menu and it said battery status is GOOD...

but whats the different between u and me is i didn't unlock the bootloader, but i used the phone more than 1 year and so the warranty is not valid anymore...

thinking to replace the battery by goto some good reputation phone repair shops
[Sony Xperia ZL] ATRIXXIRTA:
ITS YOUR BATTERY! TRUST ME!

I had the exact same issue. Just spring for a 30$ battery from eBay. Worked for me! I also brought an Xperia T back to life by replacing the battery ?. It would only show a blinking red light but wouldnt boot or charge. New battery fixed it. Sony DEFINITELY has some kinks to work out with their batteries. At the very least they need to go back to removable ones.
[Sony Xperia ZL] srcharged:
You can use it while charging but not while its off charge. If the sony center denies the problem with the battery, No one can help you. You need to check the battery. Hardware related issue. So none of us can help you out online. Please try to get your battery replaced. I think you can do that.

Yeah. they replaced my Xperia ZL with an Xperia Z without any charges and within 4 days :good: :good:. Thanks a lot, btw. (I couldn't really login here because i was rather preoccupied. That's the reason it's been ages since i replied) :cowboy:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NewSPV:
Hello

Am I the only one who has problems with the inbuilt Microsoft Crap, in particular File Explorer. When ever I use it, for example trying to open the Windows Directory, the 'Please Wait Circle' goes around and around for minutes, or it simply crashes the system needing a Soft Reboot.

However, Resco Explorer opens straight away, Gsfinder+ again opens straight away.

Windows Menu System, so slow, install Wisbar Advance and it fires up straight away. Why can't Microsoft ever get anything to work properly, yet third party developers really boost the system?

Is there any way to strip down WM5 so releasing Memory and just use third party software?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] levenum:
Well, you are not the only one. Not that that is much comfort.

Here is another story for you:

Transfer 5MB directory with file explorer over WIFI (from shared folder on PC) - 1min 30sec.

Same directory with Total Commander - 25sec.

:shock:

And of course there are little things, like file extensions or opening files directly from shared folders on PC.

Unfortunately, you can't get rid of the built in crap because it is part of ROM. So there is no memory to be reclaimed (unless you are good at cooking your own ROMs and can substitute programs directly there).

Personally I use:

TCPMP / WinamPaq instead of WMP

Total Commander instead of File explorer.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NewSPV:
I use TCPMP like you as it appears to play just about everything, but have you noticed that if you tap on an AVI up comes Media Player by default to tell you that it does not support the file.

Microsoft even say on http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/windowsmobile/faq.aspx#5_1

"5.3 Why can't I play a file that I copied to my device?

You are trying to play a file format that Windows Media Player 10 Mobile does not support (such as files with the extensions .avi, .divx, .m4a, .mpeg, .mpg, .ms-dvr, .ram, .wav, or .xvid)"

I thought this might be due to the supported Codecs

Microsoft MPEG-4 codec version 2.0 and 3.0.

ISO MPEG-4 video codec version 1.0.

But they appear to use the extension MP4

So if Media Player does not play AVI, why is it associated with Media Player?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] levenum:
It's because MS is BEEP BEEEEEEEEP BEEP.

But seriously, in TCPMP go to:

Options->Settings->Select page->File association

select all the file types you want associated with TCPMP and click OK.

This should solve the problem, and you will even see TCPMP icon next to the file names in explorer.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Culvin:
So, recently, my phone has started to have an issue that is pissing me off so bad I almost want to get rid of it.

When I'm in a phone call, my "power" button doesn't work 90% of the time, or if it does, it takes about 10 seconds to register it.

So, if I'm in a call, and I get their voicemail, I CANNOT hang up before it starts recording. My phone does not turn the screen on quick enough for me to end the call. God forbid I attempt to leave a voice mail, because then they get about 10 seconds of noises while I wait impatiently for my phone to turn on the screen so I can end the call.

Why is it doing this, and what can I do, besides throwing it in the trash, to avoid this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
The power button is one of the things that most commonly go bad.

I take it you're not under warranty?

Another user here in the last week or two took his phone apart and cleaned around the power button which fixed it all up.

If you do this, make sure you clean around the actual switch on the inside, not just the button we see on the outside that pushes that switch.

Good luck ?!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Culvin:
I really have no clue what that means. I've never done anything like that to my phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] roirraW "edor" ehT:
In that case, I could give you instructions to perform a factory reset of your phone to see if that helps, but be advised that doing so would wipe out all your apps, all your apps data, your call log, texts and MMS.

I don't remember if it also would wipe your internal "SD" so you should be safe and copy or move all important stuff like pictures and downloads to your external SD (the one you can remove).

Basically, it would make your phone's software just like it was when it was new.

Is this something you'd be interested in trying?

Are you rooted? Stock or custom rom? Recent update to phone? If custom rom, was it a clean install?

Does rebooting the phone "fix" the problem for a little while?

Always better to give us as many details as possible when you have a problem.

Here's a few other ideas and apps to help you troubleshoot.

Get an app like 1 tap cache cleaner and run it. Very possible that this could help but even if it doesn't, clearing the cache will never hurt your phone, and will free up storage space.

You can download the free version of watchdog. It isn't a task manager in the normal sense where you use it to shutdown apps. Instead, it monitors all your apps and alerts you when an errant app uses a high percentage of the cpu. Some app may very well be hogging the cpu and slowing everything down.

I've also found that clearing out and uninstalling random apps every month or so prevents my gs3 from choking. Free app of the day installs, and other apps you install but don't really use can definitely slow down your phone. Go to your application mgr and start getting rid of any apps you rarely, or never use anymore.

You should also download Ad Network Detector. It tells you who is looking at what on your phone. Lets you know each and every ad network that every individual app uses to pull information from your phone. Also tells you exactly what kind of info they are getting. Most ad networks just get basic data so they can display in app ads, but others access way too much. Get a few of those data mining apps on your phone and they can also slow it down.

Also, if you're rooted with a custom recovery, try rebooting into recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache.

I agree try looking in settings, my device, call settings for the turn screen off in call option. It has aggravated me before but I've kinda gotten used to it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projektorboy:
I swear this issue has to be server-side because I can't find any reason for the phone to behave this way.

XT1034

Android 4.4.2

System version 174.44.1

Stock + Rooted + Bootloader Unlocked

This issue happened BEFORE root & bootloader unlock as well. It even happened on Android 4.3 when I first took the phone out of the box. Please refer to screenshots below to show that weird things are happening.

In the stock mail app, no matter how many times I plug in variations of my credentials and our server, I always receive Can't Connect To Server as my error message.

I actually have 2 choices of ways to format my username. I've tried them both.

(1) long-domain.com\username

(2) domain\username

As can be seen below, my Active Directory record shows that I have ActiveSync features enabled for my account. I shouldn't have a problem with this.

HOWEVER, the server itself is acknowledging a successful connection because my phone shows up in the device list under my account. It's just that the phone seems to not like whatever response it's seeing from the server.

I've tried 3rd party apps. Touchdown works. Nine does not. I'd rather not continue to use Touchdown because its interface is hideous and I don't want to spend $20 on it. I can't be the only person who has had Exchange/ActiveSync issues on my Moto G, right?
