[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hoary2001:
Text message were being read out fine: "You have a text message from contact...

here is the message....blah blah blah

".

Coincidentally with the ND7 OTA, the reading of the body of the text message (in bold above) stopped (the reading of the contact name still works). All the text to speech settings are still set as before as far as I can see.

Anyone else have this problem? Any solutions?

Yes, I even did a factory reset. No difference. I have since installed a 3rd party app but it's not quite the same, e.g., can't turn it on/off with "hands-free" mode.

SO is clear, screen aligment issue is a TyTN harware fault, as clearly stated from TyTN OFFICIAL WIKI

They say also DO NOT BUY TyTn with serial n. between 62xxx and 63(1-5 xxx)

SO my (AND THE MAJORITY OF YOURS) TyTN is a brick now, I can't sell (none would it if they check on HTC website) I can't swap (I had screen alignment problem after one month, because I am a good user, I am not used to overheat or strongly squeeze my phone, as they ask to do in the first period), should only be REPAIRED, but the serial wil be always the same, waiting long time to have it back (repaired also means a month waiting at least)

SO instead of saying "sorry guys, thank's to chose HTC, it was our fault, this is a new one" they said : "IS YOUR FAULT, YOU HAVE TO OVERHEAT AND SQUEEZE IT DURING THE FIRST WEEK, FOLKS"

We have only a solution in my mind, to send many e-mail to

pr@htc.com.tw (HTC press room)

I am owner of a TyTN phone with serial number between HTC62xxx and HTC63(1-5)xxx. I am a normal user, not used to overheat and squeeze my phone during the first two weeks of ownership and now I have the screen alignment issue. You know it is YOUR fault, please swap my phone with a new one.

Please learn from INTEL lesson and avoid thi letter and the case explained to all newspaper, analists and so on http://www.mackido.com/History/History_PentBug.html

I want it swapped with a non-fault one even after the first 2 weeks

TyTN

TyTN Release Date: July 2006

(a.k.a. Hermes, Vodafone 1605, Orange SPV M3100)

IMPORTANT: 70% of HTC TyTN devices have screen alignment problem!!!

HTC WILL NOT REPLACE IT AFTER TWO WEEKS, YOU CAN ONLY GET IT REPAIRED. So push it hard and make it hot on your first week after buying it to see if the screen alginment problem appears on your device, otherwise the screen alignment problem will appear later and your device will not be replaced, only repaired as per HTC DOA.

If you are thinking of buying an HTC TyTN, make sure you get an HTC636 or higher serrial number. Avoid S/N HTC62XXX and HTC63[1-5]XXX

Although the info is on the htcwiki page, the statement you are refering was added by user "xda-developers" who's login and password information can be found in bugmenot.com website, so it doesn't come from HTC itself but from someone upset with TyTN screen alignment problem and HTC repair / replacement policy ;)

HTC TyTN Marketing strategy

POF, I answered also in the MoDaCo thread, I post this comment here just to inform also the XDA-DEV only users... If you are also on MoDaCo save time and jump over this message

I agree, HTCWIKI is UNOFFICIAL. :lol

I'm sorry my hairs are mostly white, may be my brain is gone... so I've been to THIS address http://www.europe.htc.com/support/support....?device=htctytn

Looks official, top 10 questions on TyTN: NOTHING about screen alignment; strange because was the MAIN question on HTC TyTN hardware on Internet.

Let me check on DISPLAY FAQ on HTC site, nothing.... but I find an OFFICIAL repair centre in NL, confirming the replacement policy, in XDA-DEVELOPERS HERMES forum... So there is an OFFICIAL position on TyTN clearly stating that screen aligment is an hardware problem!

I made a phone call, to HTC OFFICIAL centre , (this is the enquiry number I had 061500uk09284397) and the said EXACTLY WHAT UNOFFICIAL WIKI SAID (except the precentage) on xda-developers poll we have around 40%,of ALL HERMES having the screen alignment problem, and ALL means new one and people STILL not having...

The HTC centre the confirmed the 15 days replacement policy, and yes if you have the problems after the 16th day they will repair under warranty conditions. .

Is a WELL KNOWN HARDWARE BUG from HTC point of view, and they are playing the official/unofficial game

to avoid big problems to resellers (they still have to sell some of HTC62xxx with other names) slowly admitting the problem.

You were in this business when a "game" closer to this was played from Intel? They learned the marketing lesson, HTC is on the way on....

Italy is in the EU and when we pay 700€ for a phone we would like something 100% working not 70% or 30%. If you know and you sell... and don't replace you are STEALING MONEY TO CONSUMERS, this is all over in the world
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrvanx:
firstly: My TyTN has the alignment problem and is FAR from being a brick....the phone is still useable totally. With a repair this will be fixed...for free and under warranty...what the problem!?!?

secondly: HTC state they will get the repair done within a 5 day period so you will NOT be waiting a month for the handset to be returned

Lastly under manufacturers warranty you are entitled to get the problem recified for free if it is indeed a manufacturing problem, this does NOT entitle you to a replacement upgraded handset straight away...the manufacturer has the right to repair it to fully working condition. All this ranting and raving is totally unjust...if people TOLD HTC what the problems were instead of ranting on forums they would have a better idea of the magnitude of the problem!!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pof:
I have two Hermes, one with SA problem, the other is fine.

My first hermes arrived on August 1st, the SA problem started on September 15th. I notified HTC on September 17th using the support form in htc europe website where I clearly stated when I got my device and when the SA issue started.

I got the usual "canned" reply, telling me that my unit was going to be REPLACED if it was a TyTN and I have all the accessories and original box (which I do). I was given the contact details of Teleservice Spain to have my device replaced.

I contacted them, and they only offered a repair under warranty. I replied to HTC and the answer I was given was this:

Teleservice spain refused to contact HTC, so I contacted HTC again and finally I was given the contact details of Cirma in France to swap my unit. When I said my device arrived on August 1st they refused to replace it and they only offered a repair under warranty.

I contacted HTC again, and I am still waiting for the answer. Obviously I prefere a replacement unit than having my unit repaired, and that's what they initially offered, in the first canned email I received there was no mention to the "2 week DOA policy", that's why I am still fighting to have my device replaced.

I am not going to call them anymore, so if they don't answer by the end of this week I am going to fill an European Consumer Complaint Form to start a legal dispute against HTC.

If anyone is in the same or similar situation have a look at this website where you will find the forms in PDF format and the address of your nearest ECC-Net centre: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/index_en.htm
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sergiopi:
In Italy is even worst:

I called HTC: after admitting the Hardware fault, they said one month of life is too much and my phone will be only REPAIRED, then they gave me me the HTC assistance number in Italy.

It is a 199 number, you pay just for call, a half minute fee, none can call them from office, because all office are sat up to avoid those calls, but you can call only during OFFICE OURS.

So I called from mobile phone, 4 Euro's just to understand that they could only gave me a second telephone number of a centre in my city were to bring the phone to be sent to the service. " A centre in Rome, please", "I have so many", "have something in my area code?" "tell me the first two numbers of your home phone" and so on, just to know the phone number of a centre were they collect and send the phones to a "generic" phone repair centre called "Teleca Telephone Service" http://www.telecatelephoneservice.it the 199 number I was calling!

I called the centre in Rome Timing? at least 15 days, courtesy phone? None, sorry

No answer about policies, they barely kows HTC!

Thank's for your complain form indication
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Ce:
I wouldn't hold my breath....My first TyTN broke down (SA problem) within 24 hours. The reseller asked me to contact HTC....HTC asked me to contact Qtek....and so on. Finaly Qtek wanted to repair it. I asked how long it would take and they stated it would take 10 business days for repair without the "transport" times. There are already users who waited 4 whole weeks before they got their unit back.

OTH it's perhaps more wise to let it repair. A lot of resellers are still selling "old" devices. The chance your exchanged unit is also a faulty one is pretty big. A repaired one definitely doesn't have the problems.

I'm creating a bulletin board-like app on android and while in the middle of writing the code, this comes to my mind:

I want the newly fetch data(maybe an announcement) to have 'new' text beside the title on listview and when the user read/touch that article

he/she will transferred to the single item view of that article and when the user comes back to the listview of the article available, I want

the 'new' text to disappear from listview.

*Note: I want to mark all the article as new even though they are a month old as long as the user do not read/touch that article.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] readysetmosh:
Hey guys. So the other day I flashed a rooted stock sense 5 rom and everything worked beautifully. Unfortunately, it started slowing down after awhile so I decided to flash a different rom (in this case Bean Stalk). I did a nandroid backup and then attempted to flash. For some reason the phone rebooted during the flash and apparently deleted all of the data off of my internal storage. Now whenever I try to flash any rom (even those not 4.4 based) it says:

symlink: some symlinks failed

E:Error executing updater binary in zip /rom.zip/

Error flashing zip /rom.zip/

Updating partition details...

I've tried flashing different versions of the twrp recovery to no avail (I'm running 2.6.1 at the moment). I tried flashing MeanBean but when it tried to install on the /data partition it failed. I've formatted everything multiple times but still no luck. (I'm on HBOOT 2.10?) Any suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
You've updated to Sense 5, which means you can only use TWRP w/the "b" after the version (mine).

It also means you can only use ROMs with the "new" or "updated" partition layout, which MeanBean is not.

Go back to the proper TWRP and flash a stock rooted Sense 5 or the Sense 5.5 port, and you should be fine. Then flash a ROM built with the new layout.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] readysetmosh:
Thanks for the quick reply. Could you link me to the recovery? I can't find the twrp I used before
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
It's linked in my signature.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] readysetmosh:
Thanks, man. I'm going to try it now
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] readysetmosh:
It flashed successfully. When it booted it asked for a password to decrypt the storage. I formatted the /data partition and did a full factory reset but it is still asking for a password.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Did you try going to the wipe menu and repairing the data partition?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] readysetmosh:
Thank you so much! Everything looks like it's working. Could you give me a list of the roms compatible with my current twrp/hboot/ version? Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
That's easy:

- Any Sense ROM running Android 4.3 or higher

- Any AOSP ROM stating it works on the new layout (most, if not all, are listed here)

Does Galaxy tab 4 t231 have USB otg support? If not, can it be enabled by any method? Planning to buy this tablet. Please answer.. Thank you for your time
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
Would really love to know this too. It's my understanding previous versions of the Galaxy Tab support USB OTG, and would love to enable it on the Tab 4.

On my smartphone I have an option in settings to turn OTG on and off, unfortunately no option seems to exist on my Tab4. Assuming the Tab 4 has hardware support for it, how would I go about enabling OTG?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maverick07r6:
Bump...

Would LOVE a solution as well~!:good:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404-Not Found:
Ran USB Diagnostics. As of now there is no support whatsoever but a custom ROM or Kernel may be able to enable it. I suppose there is a slight chance since the larger variants have OTG support and the hardware is similar.

Edit: Playing around with some OTG apps, it appears that we do not have hardware support so there's about 70-90% chance the tablet will purely not support it and trying to do so would be impossible.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
I ran that same app on my Tab4 as well, unfortunately I wasn't able to understand everything the app told me so I concluded OTG support on the Tab4 was inconclusive =P

Considering OTG is supported on the other Galaxy Tab devices, what reasoning would Samsung have to not enable this feature on the Tab4 7.0? Especially if the hardware is the same (or very similar) it just doesn't make any sense to me why they wouldn't give the Tab4 7.0 OTG support as well. It's actually very frustrating in 2014 that this Tab doesn't support OTG. I am almost considering returning it solely for this reason (I haven't yet, because I'm very pleased with everything else the Tab4 has to offer).

My cheap, Chinese sub $100 android ICS tablet I bought last year had OTG support! What gives Samsung? I sort of expect more from a major brand like Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404-Not Found:
So, I may be wrong but I believe the problem may be in chip set itself, since its Marvell CPU (I never heard of this company). However, the Tab 3 also carried an older Marvell CPU, which they were able to overcome this problem with a custom Kernel. So, may be this tablet has slight chance of having OTG support but Scumbag Samsung decided that they don't the cheaper tablet to sell.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
Well I'll certainly be holding out on that slight chance for OTG support lol. I was really looking forward to using my tab 4 as a second display with DSLR Controller, so you can imagine my disappointment when it didn't work =/

Either way, if a dev ends up seeing this and wants to implement this feature, let me know if I can do anything help (beta testing custom kernels) or whatever, just let me know. I'm more than willing to help move this forward, even if it ends up not working.
