Im on ARHD v53 and my battery goes down to less than 10pc in space of 12 hours from full charge. Is this normal?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sheikboy:
Hi all,

I'm a noob (longtime lurker), I just wanted to ask the following question: I've been a longtime Windows Phone user and I'm thinking about making the jump to Android.

I was thinking of using the device as an all in one productivity device, with a dock connecting the phone to a monitor, such as this one:

EDIT: Can't post links due to Noobishness, so its the "Aerb® 3in1 Smart Multimedia HDMI Dock Station Desktop Charger Charging Data Transfer & Sync OTG for Samsung Galaxy S4 Galaxy Note 2 Galaxy Note 3"

Now, while the hardware looks great, the implementation seems... clunky at times, but the old WebTop mode from the old Motorola Atrix line seems well suited to something like this.

SO, my question:

Has anyone pulled the WebTop mode from the Atrix lineup and make it available to all Android devices? I saw a story saying that they had gotten it to work over all HDMI connections, so all it would need is some optimizations to work on Android 4.4.2+ devices.

Best,

Sheik

I love the fingerprint unlock on this device (contrary to other reports it nearly always works first time for me), but am looking for a way to disable it when I am in range of my home WiFi.

I've tried Tasker + Secure Settings, DelayedLock, SafeLock, and SkipLock; but these can only switch on a PIN/password/pattern unlock when I leave the house and not the fingerprint unlock.

Does anybody know of any apps that are able to control this?
[HTC One Max] dreskullz:

How can I add u2nl to init.d? I have an HTC Evo 4g LTE and need to make android 4.3 Viper4g Rom run my script on boot. I've tried to use Root Explorer and Root Browser apps to manually add them to the init.d folder, set permissions and changed owner and group to root. But my phone won't boot after I've added my script. The name of my script file is autostart.sh and this is what it contains.

#!/system/bin/sh

export PATH="$PATH:/system/bin"

iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT

iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT

iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT

iptables -F

iptables -t nat -F

iptables -X

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o rmnet0 -p 6 ! -d 10.132.25.254 -j REDIRECT --to-port 1025

u2nl 10.132.25.254 8080 127.0.0.1 1025 >/dev/null 2>&1 &

sh -c "sleep 5;kill `ps|grep nk.bla.android.autostart|grep -v grep|awk '{print $2}'`" &

exit 0

I know someone here has the knowledge to make this happen. Please advise and assist. Thanks. P.S. I have tried to rename the script to 99data and placed it init.d directory so it would run last but phone won't boot.?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lgrootnoob:
have you tried a dummy test script that just echos a number to the sdcard file?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solcam:
Thanks for replying. The script term-init.sh that I found elsewhere on XDA, had a test and set perms output file that can be found in /data/Test.log. I have solved the problem on my Evo 4g LTE but, not on my Sprint Galaxy S3. Turns out that I couldn't use Root Explorer to manually add the file! I had to REALLY MANUALLY add the file using the terminal emulator. That worked on the Evo but not the S3. I had placed the scripts in one postboot.rc files on S3 and it worked fine but, my battery seemed to be draining a lot faster, which was not acceptable. So I guess my problem is half solved. So, do you know how to make it work on the S3? Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me.

I use Bootcamp and Windows 7 on my mac. Not the cheapest way but a lot easier for rooting. Also lots of side benefits to having Windows available as well.

Yup. It ran like a normal windows install. I just odined root and TWRP. I ran VMware fusion 6.03 standard with Windows 7 Pro and all the latest updates. The only thing I had to change was, on the virtual machine, configure the USB ports to run in 2.0 mode.

Hello everyone.

For 4 days ago my sg3 started doing something really strange ...

For several months I have installed the 4.3 Russian in my GT -I9300 and beat of a sudden, every time I make or receive a cell phone call I do not listen to me or I can listen to anyone , as if the handset and the microphone will not work.

BUT , if they work, I tested with Google Talk, Skype , software to record audio and microphone headset works perfectly and works well , the problem is only with the phone calls .

Connect the phone for bt car , also with wired headset, handsfree , and in all cases is the same , the call is connected but can not hear me or hear anyone.

With all this I did a clean install , formatting system and all other partitions and take to put the 4.3 Argentina , the BUGML1 reformatting everything , install root and everything else , the phone works perfectly except for the same old problem , as if the embers in mute microphone and headphone volume without phone ..

Again, the phone works perfectly with Skype and other programs I only have this problem in the cellular network.

Also change of company , I tested clear and staff and nothing ..

Someone happened the same? , Anyone have any idea how to fix it? , I'm sure it's not hard because the mic / headphone funcona , so for me it is soft ..

I accept any kind of ideas and sugetencias . :)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Num_Lock:
Hello, a week ago i sent my m7 because i had the purple tint problem at the camera and now i got my m7 back with a new problem (they formatted the phone as part of the fix)

No matter which charger i use (1A , 2A, original, not original and whaterver) I get a notification that tells me that i use slow charger and i need to use the original charger. Even when i connect my m7 to my computer with usb it give me that annoying notification, it's like he thinks my computer is a charger and because of that my computer doesn't recognize the phone and i cant do s off or root and that kind of stuff to repair it because i'm pretty sure it is a software problem (as i said, they formatted the phone).

I tried to reset the phone from the setting but so far nothing..

if it helps, no matter which charger i use it always charges at the same speed (the phone limits the charger or something)

I'm sorry for my bad english :S
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
it looks more like your phone usb port is defective. You should send it back for repair.I have heard something similar to your issue, when a guy opened his M7 himself to replace something. After he reassembled the phone, everything was working fine except he got the same issue you are experiencing.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
Agree, it sounds like either a damaged port or a bad cable (did you try different ones?). The phone decides what kind of connection it's got depending on what it gets through the four leads, and if something is missing, it may decide it's dealing with a charge-only connection.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Num_Lock:
But the repair made by the htc's machine..(i sent is to repair at the official importer in my country)

And yes, i tried diffrent cabels and charges, cabels and charges that worked before doesnt work now.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
I would return it to the service center. It seems clear they may have damaged the port during repairs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkons:
Dear xda community,

recently a Galaxy S2 of a friend of mine got soft bricked. It was just stuck at the boot logo.

The device wasn't rooted or anything so I rooted it, created a Nandroid backup and flashed the latest version of a Custom ROM I recommend to use on the S2 (SentinelROM latest version).

Now he was on 4.1.2 when i created the Nandroid Backup, SentinelROM is based on 4.3. When I copy the mms databases from the nandroid backup to his data/data/com.android.providers.telophony/databases/ folder.

The SMS app will FC until I delete the Database files copied from the Nandroid backup again. Is there any way I can get his contacts and sms out of that nandroid backup on his current OS?

Thanks.

P.S. I will gladly provide additional information!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
SMS and contact data are produced by system apps....restoring data from system apps into a newer version of the OS will ALWAYS cause force closes etc.

There *might* be a way around it....

You need to find the software / OS version he was running before and reinstall it....then import the data from the nandroid. Once you have done that.....

1) download 'SMS BACKUP AND RESTORE' from play store then use it to make a backup.....you should find a folder called SMS backup and restore when you search for it.

2) open the contacts, press menu and select import/export (or whatever it says) to create the file.....it should say something like vcf00001 when you search for it.

Move the backups to external storage, reflash the ROM and repeat steps 1 and 2 except (obviously) restore rather than backup.......

Or.......

Simply reflash the original OS, import the data and leave as is......
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkons:
First of all, thanks for your detailed reply. Is it really enough to just restore the backup while on the same OS version (Jelly Bean 4.1.2) as when the backup was created? Could I flash a 4.1.2 ROM onto my Galaxy S, then restore the Nandroid /data backup I did and I'll have the contacts and sms from my friends S2 (where Nandroid backup was created on 4.1.2) on my Galaxy S i9000? Then I wouldn't need to reflash his S2 :P

Thanks again and have a great day ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
As far as I know, it's the matching OS version that is critical here.....this simply will not work across different OS's......

The only other thing that *might* stop it working is if the data you are trying to restore is itself corrupted.......

As for restoring the data to the S.....

I did something similar with the vcf contacts file when I migrated the file from my Galaxy W to my S2.....

I can't speak for an SMS backup as I've never tried it....in theory it *could* work, as the backup is made by the app in a format it can recognise independently of the OS/phone, but I simply don't know.....

I would be surprised if data pulled from an S2 nandroid could be successfully applied to an S though.....

Make a nandroid of the working setup on the S and give it a try.....

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
BTW.....how are you pulling the data from the nandroid?

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkons:
I will only restore the data partition from the nandroid so I'd say there's a high chance of success.

I'm pulling the data from the Nandroid by using this command:

cat data.ext4.tar data.ext4.tar.a data.ext4.tar.b > data-combined.tar

to create readable ".tar" files. Then I can browse the backup as much as I want. I can find the sms databases but no contacts database which worries me. I really hope they're just gonna be there once I restore the backup on my Galaxy S.

I'm a phone geek as well ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Lol....that's my tapatalk signature........

Is it possible that the contact records are stored on the sim card?

My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right :):D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkons:
Some of them were. But most of them not.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Ah OK......well the easiest way forward I think will be just to reflash the S2 and restore the data.....

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersey:
Having always rooted my phones I never had an issue backing up apps and data via Titanium backup but am now looking for a solution to back up apps and their data on my non-rooted Z2.

Having just flashed the latest Z2 firmware via Flashtool which wipes the phone, I've restored backups I had made with Sonys Back Up and Restore app only to find it didn't backup all it said it did, so had a number of apps and data missing.

Can anyone recommend a solution to this :confused:
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwiftSmoke:
I was in the same boat as yourself, Ive found a good one is HELIUM, plus helium will state what apps don't have a backup option coded into them so unlike sonys own app u wont be annoyed when some apps do/don't backup ;) Also Helium allows cloud backups as well as internal and external sd card backups :)

Im currently using helium for apps and Mybackup pro for my text message backups as I found heliums message backups were weirdly in the opposite date order to normal use( instead of latest being at bottom of list it was at top)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersey:

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rexboy:
Just confiming, does Hellium doesnt back up the app data like TB?

I know ive read somewhere there is an app by chainfire for app and data backup for non rooted but at first glance it seem a bit long winded so never bothered with it.

I used easy backup which restored my apps, sms, mms, call log etc all no probs but yeah problem was no data backed up so had to set them all up like email, settings etc all over again.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluheart:
I understand :D Unlocking and Rooting an Xperia is a tough task. But the stock ROM is good enough.

A good article here. It helped me and it may help you too buddy.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwiftSmoke:
well your not gonna get the same level of backup due to lack of root, but for me it saved things like game progression(i.e angry birds) but didn't save things like custom widget sets in HD widgets app. But not the end of the world.

Ive started looking at my backups a bit more in detail and asking do I really need a backup of some apps, as some are just install-login to app and use no custom data to speak of to really backup. Or other apps like XDA app and game progression which have custom settings and progression Id like to save.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xajel:
bro, Last time I used Helium is when it was called Carbon, I tried it with Xperia S and it didn't worked at all, after that I saw this in it's description in Play Store

I lost hope after that, so does it work now on Z2 ?

I'm still not in a hurry to have Z2 as there's still no way to root without unlocking the bootloader, and I will not unlock the bootloader without backing up the TA partition first ( which requires root )... so I've been looking for a way to copy some of my app's data from my old phone to Z2, I used to use Titanium Backup always but you know, no root = no TB...

so can you confirm please that you used Helium to backup AND restore app's data to the Z2 ? or you're just guessing from a non-xperia experience ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwiftSmoke:
I used helium to backup my apps on my s3 then install them on my z2, ive also backedup up my current apps on my z2 since, but like ive already said helium cant backup certain apps as the app developer hasn't allowed backup function. Helium did the job for me for my game progression and a few apps where I wanted current setup saved.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mstrswrd06:
Silly thought, but does the red charging light even come on when the phone is powered off on a normally working S3? My spidey-sense tells me to check if the screen works at all.

What happens when you do a battery pull, then replace the battery and plug in to charge?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
You likely got the results you got by flashing the wrong bootloader. The second zip you flashed is a bootloader for the Canadian variant (i747M) so, unless your phone is the Canadian variant, you would have bricked a second time. The debrick image helps you get your phone into download and/or recovery mode from where you can work your way up the rest of the food chain to full firmware restore. I presume your phone is an AT&T i747? You would need to create a new debrick image and try the process again. This time, when you get into recovery mode, try flashing a complete stock image. If the debrick file works, it should enable your phone boot into system. If you can get into system, use the instructions in the following thread to download a stock restore file and to your phone and then reboot into recovery (still with the debrick card) to flash the stock restore zip.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2658486

If the new debrick doesn't work, your phone may need a JTag fix.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Usually, the unbrick image won't help if your phone is bricked from flashing a bootloader meant for another model but only when you wrongly flash an older bootloader for the same model. Looks like it is a real hard brick and a JTag may now be required.
