[Motorola Droid RAZR] deboyz1014:
So I have 3 razr maxx, one of which have data plan on it which I use to tether the other two phones. I'll call that one A and the other B and C.

Phone B: No matter what slot or ROM I'm on, I can see and connect to the AP provided by phone A

Phone C: No matter what slot or ROm I'm on, I can see but can't connect to the AP provided by phone A

Keep in mind here that all are razr maxx. Phone C even flashed back to stock using droid razr utility still can't connect to phone A but it have no trouble connecting to AP from router anywhere.

Any thoughts on what to try next to get Phone C to connect to Phone A?

You can check this in the discussion thread or post a logcat in the dev thread for the ROM.

The rom is WiP and some bugs are to be expected.

[HTC Rezound] sdsubball23:
Hi, my rezound has since last night been charging really really slowly. It usually chargea at a normAL pace for me which would be like going from 58% to 77% in 3 to 4 hours. But since last night its barely moving up and going down faster.

Does anyone what the problem is and if there's a solution?

I have my rezound on stock ics non-rooted.
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
First off, 58% to 77% in 3-4 hours is terrible... you should be able to fully charge from 15%-100% in 4 hours (or really close to 100%).

You could have one or more of a handful problems here...

1) Your charging source is putting out less than 1A (1000mA)

2) Your USB cable is bad

3) Your charging port is bad

4) You have an app that is seriously sucking the battery to the point it is draining at a higher rate than your charger can output

5) You have a defective batter

I would install GSAM or BetterBatteryStats for more info on the charging current (1000mA at the charger usually equates to 500ma-650ma at the battery) and any apps which are draining the battery quickly.

I would try another known good microUSB cable and charger, most from newer smartphones will work, you don't have to have an HTC charger (I use one from a Samsung, LG, Pantech, and Motorolas all the time, as long as they output 1000mA or higher)

Replace the battery, especially if you haven't done so in a long time... typically the battery should be replaced every 12-24 months, so if you have never done that you should.

If all that fails, then it is probably the USB port or the phone itself.

As stated, my AdMob account was banned due to the reason of Invalid clicks during my software development (I'm not aware of their TOS/T&C upon that time). So, the question is am i safe to create another AdMob account under my siblings name(New PC, NIC, IP, Address, Phone No., etc)?

I have my apps published to Google Play Store previously, could i replace the AdMob UnitID with new account UnitID? Will it trigger another banned hammer to both of my Google Play Developer Account and AdMob Account?:(:(

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] SPARTEN II:
When I'm carrying around my BA, the buttons get accidentally pressed almost constantly.....which causes it to turn on, and it drains my battery alot.

Is there anything I can do or any program I can download that will lock all the keys when it's turned off, so that only the power button works? The power button getting accidently pressed isn't a problem becuase it's on the top of the BA.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] hirsch234:
it's already possible ;)

look under settings->system-> buttons (or sth. like that, don't know the english entry)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpacePotato:
So I have an S3 LTE from fido, currently running clockwork and Cm11.

I want to restore it to stock rom so I can unlock via purchasing a code from unlock.canadagsm.ca (does this site work? another site I should use?)

I have the fideo i747MVLUEMK5 image from the forums downloaded, do I flash it, how do I flash? do I flash it via odin?

thanks for any help you can give
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpacePotato:
Oh an its the 4.3 bootloader, since I got this phone in January.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Only flash with Odin if it's a *.tar file. If it's a zip file, then save to your internal SD card and flash via (custom) recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpacePotato:
its a tar.md5 file, which option in odin do I use to flash it?

also will it restore default bootloader and remove clockwork?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
If you are using Odin v3.09, load the file in the AP box. For other versions, use the PDA box. Do not check or uncheck any boxes other than the defaults. Yes, flashing the file will restore your phone to near factory settings and flash all partitions including bootloader, system, modem and recovery. This means you will have stock, rather than custom, recovery at the end. You can, however, always reflash custom recovery if that's your preference.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpacePotato:
aight thanks. Also unlock.canadagsm.ca is it a good site to get unlock codes?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Never used them before, I'm afraid. I just checked their website, however, and at $19, seems reasonable enough. You can, however, limit your risks by ensuring you only use a relatively safe payment option (e.g. PayPal).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SpacePotato:
aight, thanks so much!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrisamgad:
Hello . My Phone (Samsung Galaxy S3) used to connect to PC all the time until yesterday suddenly it stopped.I had that Samsung driver installed.I tried uninstalling then re installing..Still not working ..I downloaded Kies ..Nothing worked.I had read reviews about people solving their problem in the device manger.(Right click on My computer>Manage>Device Manager)I searched for my phone name and i found it.It had a yellow exclamation mark on it. I right clicked it >Update driver Software.I tried searching online but it wasn't found so i had to browse my computer for driver software.It is found in C:/Windows/System32 ... but then it gave me an error "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. USB Composite Device Access is denied". I think it is something in permissions that i should change .By the way I am logged in as the admin of Pc. Please Help .It's so important for me.I think it has something to do with permissions..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
Try using another cable and see.

After that, I can suggest that you uninstall the driver on your PC, reboot the PC and then connect your phone again.

~ RazorMC
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrisamgad:
Didn't work :c
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
Maybe something from here ?

My issue was resolved with uninstalling drivers from device manager, rebooting computer + phone and then reconnecting them. Also try switching ADB debugging off.

Note: I do not use Kies and don't recommend its drivers. Windows 7 can handle the device itself.

secondly is there any way to theme our note2...i am rooted and currently running DN3 v4 RC2 rom with s5 mods...i have also tried hktheme manager and xtheme engine,but these are not stable enough and i frequently get systemui FC
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] namanagrawal_93:
Its the best quality Note 2 can give because Slow Motion video recording needs all different hardware and better camera plus better frame rate so even the other camera apps will provide the same quality. Just be happy and satisfied that atleast you have this feature many still don't have it.:cyclops:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] fizzingbees:

btw you havent aswered the second part>>themeing our note 2

[One (M8) Accessories] ashyx:
Has anybody tried one of these copies and can attest to the quality or even compare to the genuine ones? They are half price and look identical.

I'm not even sure I can post a link here, so sorry if I messed up. :(

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=141293897922
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Are you sure they're fake? The title quotes "50% off". It's probable they are fake, but it's one of those difficult to tell. For the relatively cheap price I say give it a shot. You won't have lost a lot of money really, and it's possible you'll be happy with your purchase anyway.
[One (M8) Accessories] rgvelez:
really man ?? the original it's not expensive, just only 15.99, not to mention the great quality of spigen covers. Come on man, support one of the few

brands that make great quality covers for a fair price.
[One (M8) Accessories] Lopan12:
Definitely fake, considering the 7 colors offered in the list that Spigen doesn't make (for this one).
[One (M8) Accessories] bhags8:
Ive bought like 12 cases from Spigen and love their products but I wouldnt say their price is good. $40 for a glass screen protector? I just bought my 2nd slim armor for the htc one m8 and it cost $25 with shipping. I wouldnt say that is cheap considering it probably cost like $1 to make. But anywho Im gonna order one of these for the hell of it. Probably the lime green one.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
Paying 25 bucks for a Glass Screen Protector is stupid, in my opinion, when you have the unbranded ones from AliExpress for 5 bucks shipped. And trust me, they are exactly the same.
[One (M8) Accessories] jaimeletelierhay:
I bought one and it sucks. So much so that I told the buyer that I was going to leave negative feedback AND make sure spigen knew that they were supplying fake goods etc they refunded me in full and told me to keep the case as a gesture of goodwill. If you want i'll gladly send u it if u cover the postage.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
Anybody knows if there are any fake versions of the Clear Cases "Spigen Ultra Fit Capsule" or the recently lauched "Spigen Ultra Hybrid"
[One (M8) Accessories] ashyx:
No its ok you can keep it, I want something decent. I'll buy genuine. Incidentally what was the problem with the cases? I feel the seller is also trying to pass these off as genuine articles. It's good that you informed Spigen.
[One (M8) Accessories] kontradictions:
I couldn't agree more. Spigen makes some amazing cases and their prices are very fair. Support the company.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
Lol. Very fair? You must work for them... The spigen Slim Armor View case for the Galaxy S4 was 50 bucks
[One (M8) Accessories] kontradictions:
You have to shop around. Sometimes the MSRP is much more than street price. That case is 40 bucks on Amazon. $40 bucks is a lot of money for a case but that Slim Armor View case is looks like it's worth it. Their fit and finish has always been top notch and their cases look great.I'm more of a minimalist kind of guy so it's not really for me but if I needed more protection, I would definitely pay $40 for it.

I love how you automatically assume I'm their employee just because I praise them. Is it taboo to like a company?
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
You answered my question when you said "$40 bucks is a lot of money for a case". I say it's an outrageous price for a case.
[One (M8) Accessories] kontradictions:
I love how you pick and choose things from my response and tailor them to your needs.

Yes I did say $40 is a lot of money for a case but it's a fair price for what the case offers. There are plenty of other companies that sell cases at that price range, if not more. Otterbox for example.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
I love your nickname ;)
[One (M8) Accessories] kontradictions:
It suits you better.

Why did you buy an HTC One when you could buy a copy from China for much less? According to your logic, it's pretty much the same thing.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
I am not saying they don't make good cases and that their cases are not better than the fake ones (I bought both). I am just saying it's not fair price. 20 bucks would be the correct price to ask. Same goes with their glass screen protectors. 30 bucks? lol. I bought a similar one for 5 bucks shipped on aliexpress.

They also have terrible design flaws on their cases. The S-View cases, for instance, didn't have a simple hole for the notification led light pass through. It's a great feature to miss so I had to make one myself (it looked terrible, of course). Same goes with the closing mechanism of that case, which broke after some months because of simple use.

The HTC One m8 Spigen ultra fit capsule, a clear case they launched, also has flaws (too bulky and with a yellowish problem).

This is my opinion. You can keep yours, of course.
[One (M8) Accessories] kontradictions:
See if you said that at the very beginning, we could've had a meaningful and brief discussion.

It's much easier to understand your point of view when you actually support your claim.

I had their Barely There case for my HTC One X and the Slim Armor for the M8 and both were priced at pretty much the same as their competitors their design put them ahead in my opinion.

I guess we both had very different experiences with their products.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
In all honesty the bigger name case manufacturers do over charge IMO. For me, anything over £19.99 ($25) is pricey and best justify the additional cost.
[One (M8) Accessories] Badelhas:
My point exactly. They overcharge us
[One (M8) Accessories] Lopan12:
Well, i got my Chinese replica. Without an actual spider, I can only guess at the differences... Anyone have a slim armor they didn't want/like they would sell me for cheap? Then I could do a side by side... I wonder if spigen would send me one so I could objectively determine why/if theirs is better...
[One (M8) Accessories] eric150:
I got a fake one and you can't even plug the micro usb cable or any headphones in.
[One (M8) Accessories] Lopan12:
I didn't have any problems with either of those...but i may just have slimmer plugs, I don't think I tried the USB cable that came with it though, just the one by my bed (I have chargers and cables all over the house...). Compared to some review shots of the spigen, they look the same size/shape.

Off the bat, without a real one to compare to, here's what I identified as squirley:

• No authentication certificate

• Mold flashing around the camera, flash, mic holes (but not the usb or headphone), and sides (not top and bottom bumper though, just under the plastic piece and where the rubber is shiny). Due to it being rubber, it was very difficult to cut off, even with a new exacto blade.

• The amount of flashing was different between the two I got, one had less (but still there) than the other.

• Tooling for "Air Cushion" was there, but there's no indentation where there should be.

• Power button requires very firm push (maybe too much space?)

• Metallic green color is painted on a silver colored plastic (there's a small rectangle where it was probably held inside). Yellow is molded that color

• Genuine spigen backing has a big sticker covering the inside where this might be...dunno.

Assumptions I am making:

• Hard plastic sounds more brittle than I would imagine it being, but a video review I found where he takes it off, it sounds the same when tapped and dropped on the table.

• Rubber might be stiffer

Pros-ish:

• Camera and flash holes align, buttons aligned (other than long travel for power). Can't tell if mic aligns, but it looks like it.

• Colors other than original metallics. Might be able to atleast swap plastic for different looks. Its still hard plastic, so it will protect it [probably] the same if using original TPU liner.

Can't comment on texture of either material in comparison to Genuine.

Honestly, for $5, it's not that bad a case...I'd have to have a real one to give a good comparison. When I get home, I'm going to see how a hot knife does with the flashing.

Hello together,

following situation - I have got a Single Board Computer with Android support and the android source code from the manufacturer. It works to build an android image from it at all. Unfortunately, it's not rooted by default. I could manage to get a rooted shell. But I also need superuser privileges for the apps and that's the point where I am struggeling.

At first I tried to comment out following lines from system/extras/su/su.c:

//if (myuid != AID_ROOT && myuid != AID_SHELL) {
// fprintf(stderr,"su: uid %d not allowed to su\n", myuid);
// return 1;
//}

//if(setgid(gid) || setuid(uid)) {
// fprintf(stderr,"su: permission denied\n");
// return 1;
//}
