[General Questions and Answers] Sir Abel IV:
*What ROM should I get for my phone and will it solve my issue for data? and what am I doing wrong to install roms?*

About two weeks ago I finally got around to rooting my Android Razr Maxx so that I might speed it up since it had been laggy. I was able to root my device with no issues and overclock it to solve this problem. I began to expand to other things rooting would allow me to do and attempted to use a mobile data tweak-er to get a speed increase. At first it seemed to work great until at one point about a week later I restarted my phone and couldn't access my mobile data, I could only get WiFi and the 4G bar is always there with signal but remains grayed out. I started looking around for info and eventually asked two friends of mine who both noticed I had no VPNs listed in my phone and said that was why,I don't know how this could of occurred but both told me I could fix it by getting a new custom Rom if I didn't want to do a factory rest. If this is true I would appreciate it if someone could help me find a ROM that works for my phone. I'm currently using the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx. stock version 4.1.2 system version 98.72.165.XT912 I have Safestrap 3.11 installed already and followed numerous videos trying to get a new ROM to work, so far I have tried Wizzed Bean Jelly Wiz and Eclipse but all 3 give me a boot loop when I try to get them working and I always have to revert back to to my stock Rom after my attempts. I'm guessing there was an incompatibility I wasn't aware of in all 3 cases.

Any help with any of this would be most appreciated and I apologize ahead of time as I may be ignorant to some things involving this question
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raolleel:
Hello,

As the summer-time appears, I'm about to mod my 4wheeler, and I just found one of my old Android Phones (Htc EVO3D).

I thought about methods to build in ,my Android phone in my 4Wheeler and use this as an Display for my android phone.

I'm thinking of a VNC-Server and a VNC-Client. But also I thought about all the smartwatches and Co.

In my opinion it should be doable to use one of those Android-Roms and port them to my Phone.

Did anyone of you thought about this, or know a other way to reach my goal ?

Maybee you can help me.

I have a question. Yesterday i manage to install cwm and unofficial cm10.1 (4.2.2) rom on my zte blade g. It have a few bugs (such as not working to well camcoder) but it's usable. Way faster and more stable than official rom. My question is: is any one know something about page with this development project (i was looking for it, but t disapeared) or is anyone developing something for this device. I would appreciate answer.
[Blade General] miroslavpavlo:
blade G

We still waiting for new rom, but for now its too hard to build. We have very little people interested for this model cell phone.

Also, for blade G you can look in hungary android forum http://www.forum.kelzsoca.hu/androidfans/viewforum.php?f=283 and serbian android forumhttp://forum.androidsrbija.com/viewforum.php?f=321&sid=dc252de4ac2da92c15617cff953f4def

Hi,

Sometimes when i have a call the volume change a few seconds to very low and then to normal. This happens not only with the same conversational partner.

Can some1 help me with this prob ? Or is this prob only with my phone?

thanks in advance.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wannasarnie:
Hi All

Bit of a long story so bear with me please!

I rooted my phone a while ago but never installed any custom roms onto it. Last thursday i took the plunge

updated to ClockworkMOD 6.0

tried to fast a few custom roms all failing with partition errors

restored from a full backup

after this i decided i liked the origional rom and would leave it.

today, i was talking on my phone and the screen suddenly went blank with around 40% battery.

tried to boot up and it shows the HTC logo and nothing else, no beats logo or anything

Booted into recovery and tried to restore from the backup which it now cant find or mount any partitions.

I now have a shiney silver doorstop.

Could anyone please give me any pointers or shed some light onto what had happened.

HTC One - EE UK

Any advise greatly appreciated!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidCrystal:
Hello everyone,

I hope someone can help me with this. I got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Korea (SM-N900S) and upgraded it to Android 4.4.2. It is branded as SK Telecom with software that I don't need but can't remove. Kies also displays update messages in Korean which I can not read, I was worried I do something wrong and mess up the device. It went safely but not sure this happens every time.

I need to remove the branding for both functional and cosmetic reasons and have a standard Note 3 Android, my questions are:

Is there a way to unbrand and remove the SKT booting screen and apps and instead have a standard unbranded official plain vanilla Note 3 version without triggering KNOX or conflicing with future updates from Kies?

Can I use a firmware from a different region of another submodel (SM-N900) without damaging the device or losing functionality like LTE?

Can changing the CSC to another region remove the branding?

Thank you in advance.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
It's not a problem.

It's a LG G3 app..

You need to ask someone to port it over. Why do you make problems where there are no problems ?

It wont work on any g2 rom. Not yet.

[MENTION=5881704]matheusvp0[/MENTION] - delete LgEasySettings first from either /system/priv-app or wherever you find it. Then reinstall the CF.

It doesn't go that way.

You need to put it manually to /system/app and chmod properly

I'm sorry for my noob questions, I am new to Android I used Windows phone before, Is there a way to enter System/app without rooting?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
you have to be rooted.

I see people are fixing the issue by going to settings, apps, then all apps, find the "updated" app and select uninstall updates.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qusak808:
I saw that but there's no option for that for Settings app. Would factory reset help?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
Since you're not rooted and you don't have custom recovery, it should help, yes. Backup needed files first

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
i'm not sure if it's me dropping my phone untill the up button stopped working or a rom issue. i've been reading about it, and it seems to be a general problem with CM 11.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] chuckiev79:
Try a different rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] emaayan:
for the relay???

i only know of the stock and cm last i checked..
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] scotte9999:
In the adjacent Development forum, there are at least 4 ROMs other than CM11 (Slim, Omni, Fat (or whatever CM11-variant is called), LiquidSmooth), which is what I think the other poster was talking about.

That said, my wife runs nightly CM11 on her Relay, and we've seen a few times where the GPS signal gets lost for seemingly no reason, manifesting itself as "Signal Lost" in the middle of navigating using Google Maps. It looks like the GPS driver gets into a bad place (not sure if it crashes, or just hangs), as disable/enabling GPS lets it find signal again.

Of course, this only seems to happen when we're out and about navigating, so it's hard to get logs. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] orange808:
I don't have any issues. I am on the 3/06 nightly and I also use GPS Status.

Also, keep in mind that GPS works by locating satillites. Do you have a clear view of the sky?

Also, GPS signal can be spotty and undependable. I remember a case when a faulty antenna on a boat jammed GPS for a 5 mile radius. Also, there are truck drivers out there that are intentionally jamming the GPS devices that their employers have installed in their vehicles.

Even if the signal is temporarily lost, your device should be able to use dead reckoning, cell towers, and wifi to know where you are.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] detox702:
Trying to get an RUU to run to update the HTC One M7 from T-Mobile. I've tried both the 3.24 that the phone has, and the 4.xx new one from the Original Android Dev forum. Both of them fail. 3.xx when trying to verify information, and 4.xx after step 1/5 pushing boot. 4.xx gives error 171 USB issue. I've got the drivers installed, as well as ADB and Fastboot. It connects to the phone and the RUU file reboots it, but instead of going to bootloader it goes to a black screen with HTC in silver, then the RUU on the computer fails.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? I have fastboot/bootloader access, but can't boot past the HTC O1ne screen.

Edit: I GOT IT!!! If you're in the same spot as me, make sure to put the RUU in your ADB directory. It wasn't working for me, moved it, worked like a charm.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] majmoz:
Are you S-On or S-Off? Do you have stock recovery? Is your MID and CID the same as the RUU? Is your bootloader "Locked"? Do you have the stock hboot for the RUU you are trying to run? The hboot has to be the same or lower than hboot in the RUU!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] detox702:
Everything is stock. The co-worker never bothered with rooting/etc. S-On. T-Mo phone using a T-Mo RUU. Locked bootloader. Pretty sure the hboot is the same as well.

First of all please remove the serialno and imei from your original post. Nothing looks out of the order. Could the RUU be corrupt? Check the MD5 checksum just to be sure. Or download another RUU from a different site. I have used this site's RUU in the past.

[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Try just downloading build.prop editor from the play store and change ro.build.target_operator to OPEN. Restart and see if it picks up data (You will probably have to add your APN using Tweakker app). If it does you're in luck and just change it to "spr" to prevent systemui crashes. This works in Canada.

If not, you have to follow one of these threads...

[Sprint LG G2] LordLugard:
Ok, i know you mean well, but you two need to just stop.

Virgin Mobile USA is a CDMA carrier (owned by Sprint actually), not GSM, and as such any phone you want to use on their network has to have the ESN in their database. So unless you're attempting to dabble into ESN flashing and such, all these build.prop attempts aren't going anywhere. The G2's ESN either needs to be in Virgin Mobile USA's ESN database (which it is not, it's not a phone they carry) or you're going to have to look into flashing it over (not a likely possibility).
[Sprint LG G2] scottdanpor:
Virgin in USA is CDMA? Thanks for the info! Yeah this is a waste of time then.

Dobby0 were you able to get into the build.prop editor again? You might as well change it back to SPR. Sorry, didn't realize you were working with a CDMA network. This works in Canada but will not work for you.

Crap :/ I was trying to get this working so my friend could have a good smartphone, myself I use my Nexus 5

For a few days, the device (turned off I suppose) does not display anything or even respond (haptic feedback) at all when I plug it on the USB cable. The screen keeps being blank (actually black...).

I tried to keep the "vol+ + power" buttons pushed for a while, but not lucky, it's really such as the device USB connector is KO. Is it possible ? I do not see anything strange when I look at it...

Is my device dead ???

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Red One:
I bought my P600 refurbished and it ran into some issues a few days after. I already voided the warranty so I've been looking around for resolutions for my problem.

I did see some people have the same exact issue you had. This is all based on the research I did trying to fix mine (which is not the same issue you are having).

WARNING, THIS IS ONLY BASED OFF OF WHAT I'VE READ. I DID NOT EXPERIENCE THIS NOR DID I VERIFY IT. JUST PASSING ON MY KNOWLEDGE, SO DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!

Apparently when the screen doesn't come on its due to only a few things. Its either bricked, has bad hardware, or lastly, which is the most common, is that the LCD ribbon cable came loose. You have to open it up and check reseat it. But then it would come undone again. Someone used electrical tape and the issue was resolved. Once you open it, the LCD ribbon cable is on the left.

If you don't open it properly it will show signs of being opened (chipped plastic bezel), so only open it if you think you can do it carefully and are not wanting to send it in for warranty.
