No, it's not. Have you even been through the thread yourself ?

There is only one thing in that thread that might (and it's a very big might, like a 1 in 10,000 chance) help a phone that won't boot/no download mode or recovery, and that's the 'jumpstart' method. And I can count the number of people I've seen this work for in 2.5 yrs on one hand. Same with a jig, almost certainly won't work but try one if you can get one.

Motherboard replacement is almost always the only way to fix this, assuming a JTAG can be attempted at no cost if it doesn't work; JTAG's almost always won't work in this situation either.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kettir:
I'm personally running Dandroid 4.1.2 and it's great. I'd like to know step by step what I must do to update to Kitkat now that AT&T has a version released.

Do I need to "downgrade" to a stock AT&T rom and if so, what do I need to flash to do so?

Alternatively, is there a set of files bootloader/modem/and ROM that I can flash and not have to go through the downgrade process? Again if there is, I'd love some links to where I can get those files.

I understand that once I have Kitkat installed, I will need to use Towelroot to get root back again. I seem to understand that I also have to install SuperUser after running Towelroot.

When I do a walkthru at work, I go step by step, and don't assume that my target audience knows anything whatsoever. Please consider me the same. <G> What you post here may answer the same kind of question from someone who is just starting out with flashing ROMs.

Any of you has experimented this? I've did a clean flash. Flash several times the RADIO only. But nothing helps.

This is happening since I flashed .3 and not with .4.

Any ideas?

Is there a way to add a shortcut to turn on mobile hotspot? Right now I have to go to settings>tethering>mobile hotspot>on
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] shortydoggg:
I'm going to use chronicaust's directions for the download booster, except I changed the download booster to the mobile hotspot, since the directions for the shortcut are nearly identical.

TO GET THE QUICKSETTINGS TILE: ROOT ACCESS IS REQUIRED.

1. Download SQlite editor version 2.1. It's 2.99 in the playstore, unless you obtain it free from somewhere else.

2. In apps, find settings storage > settings.db > system

3. Search for notification

4. Choose Notification_Panel_Active_App_List (there are a few VERY similar ones, make sure its the right one.

5. Add WiFiHotspot; Make sure you don't forget that semicolon.

6. Reboot

Mine was a little buggy, so I deleted the shortcut.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] i3one21:
Thanks for the response. I ended up using Power toggles app.

Add widget to home screen.

Modify widget by clicking add.

Add WiFi hotspot item.

Click done in upper left corner.

I changed build.prop:

ro.product.device=klte

The last tile on the becomes "Wi-Fi hotspot" (next to Toolbox).

The pull down also changed: now it has "S Finder" and "Quick Connect". 4G LTE icon also changed to 4G and 4G changed to H+.

Then for some reason, even I remove AT&T's Mobile Hotspot app by Titanium Backup Pro, after a factory reset the icon comes back in Apps, without AT&T's provision though.

Hi ,

I have tested so many recoveries and none of them works .

Only a recovery named "AutoCWM for W125" works ( can't remember the source ).

As I want to install a custom rom (MIUI) .

But I get bootloop after installing it . :(

They said it's for my recovery .

Do you guys have any recovery for my phone ?

And sorry for posting here , actually I am new on android and xda-devs .

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidmelt:
Hey,

My car has a "Kufatec fiscon bluetooth module" installed which is quite a common setup for many VW cars and i'm unable to pair my N5 with it, which isn't the end of the world for me - but it still irritates me :)

Searching the net I came across this issue (code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=63056) which was reported to google since back in November 2013 and it still hasn't been fixed... the comments seem to indicate that it has to do with Power Save features of BT added in Kitkat.

I've attached a btsnoop capture of my N5 trying to pair with the module - i'd be happy for some hints on how to proceed with debugging this issue from people with more BT knowledge than myself.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mximer:
Do you use any custom ROM or Kernel? Some ROMs have issues with bluetooth
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidmelt:
Nope, i'm using the stock OTA update from a few weeks ago of 4.4.3. just recently rooted in order to debug the issue but the problem existed way before that...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
Have you tried it on the 4.4.4 update?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidmelt:
I haven't tried with 4.4.4 yet but i also don't see anything bluetooth related in the changelog so i doubt it will help.

Is there a way to tweak bluetooth settings at runtime in android? maybe through procfs? i'd like to try changing the power save mode...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldubs:
Dumb question maybe but did you shut off BT, both car and phone, reboot turn on BT and try to pair again?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
The bluetooth stops as soon as you remove the key from ignition. At least in my ford it does. :angel:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidmelt:
Hell yes! I've tried many combinations of the above, none worked! looking at the bluetooth captures you can see that the nexus resets the connection decidedly, so it's not some intermittent issue or a reception problem - there is something about the car console that the nexus (or just KitKat) doesn't like or the other way around - how can I find out what it is?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acidmelt:
Hah, after updating to 4.4.4 the pairing with the car was successful! finally, I can use the hands-free functionality... thought i'd update those who might run into the same issue.

I have no idea why or how the update fixed it as there are no mentions of BT related fixes in the changelog but i haven't diff'd the sources to verify this, maybe some kind of cache was flushed during the update which made it work - anyhow, it fixed it for me!
[General Questions and Answers] dirtb0x:
I am getting so extremely frustrated!!! GRR

I have a T Mobile Note II. T Mobile gave me the unlock code so I can use my phone with AT&T.

I am unable to get service with the default AT&T APN settings.

I searched AT&T's help center and all over xda's forums for the correct settings.

I've tried several of the settings. The recurring problem with ALL of the settings is : I cannot send MMS.

I'm able to receive MMS though. SMS and data work just fine with all the settings I've tried.

And, yes, I restart my phone after every APN change I make.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Hi Hermes Owners!

--

Just wanted to know what variants of the Hermes are available in HKG. I'm on my way to HKG in 2 weeks and am looking to purchase a second PocketPC Phone.

--

I really fancy the HTC TyTn or dopod CHT 9000 but I like the HTC TyTn more because the CHT 9000 has Chinese characters on the thumb board which is a bit confusing if I'm going to use the device in English.

--

The dopod 838 pro is nice and all, but I like the look of the TyTn more.

--

So this is the question... are the TyTn and/or CHT 9000 available anywhere in HKG? If yes where can I get it and how much would it be? If they are not available is the 838pro already available, how much is it going for? Of course I'm asking about English OS devices please. Thanks in advanced for any info.

--

Regards from Manila :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
Pards,

Dopod838Pro, CHT9000 and O2 Trion are available in HK. Only the first is the official one (with local warranty) and widespread. All of them are available in English.

I like the O2 trion design, but I dumped mine since it has alignmnet issue and bought Dopod instead, whihc has the almost same design and with local warranty since I live in HK. But the Trion is cheaper...I dont like the HTC and CHT 9000 design...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bnycastro:
Bummer no HTC TyTn... so you would suggest the 838pro over the other variants cause it has warranty. However I live in Manila so the Hong Kong warranty wouldn't really do me any good :( do you think I should wait for the 838pro to get to Manila it would probably take ages and be much too overpriced... We don't even have the 838 here yet officially [they are a lot in the tiangges of V-Mall, I even saw Cingular branded ones but brand new ones are so few]. How much did you get the 838pro there in Hong Kong?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] sectorlord:
I got the O2 a month ago for 5.2K and the dopod is now 6.1K (on 24 months installment) with 1GB uSD.

I heard that dopod838pro will be released in Manila this month..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] bnycastro:
Well I don't think they'd accept int'l cards for those installment deals [tried to purchase a notebook on installment last January at FORTRESS and I was told they don't accept int'l credit cards] so I'd have to pay cash I guess. Hmmm 6K for the Hermes... is it AKU3.0 already? I have AKU3.0 [by Ivan] on my Exec and am loving it... I just need a spare phone really but the HTC s620 still hasn't been announced and SAMSUNGs SGH-i607 is slated for an end of the year [possibly early next year release] so I was thinking why not get the Hermes first but 6K HKD is kinda steep for a spare phone, I tried using a v3i as a spare phone but missed the full sync that outlook and windows mobile does... if the 838pro will be out in Manila this month then I might see it here before I go to HKG on the 20th... hopefully they price it competitively. I hear the CHT 9000 is around 36,000 PhP in Taiwan but then again the chinese strokes on the keyboard are very confusing... :( oh my now I don't know if I should wait for the HTC s620, Samsung SGH-i607 or just get the Dopod 838pro. Also there has still been no additional leaks about the Universal successor [HTC Omni] which was mentioned a few weeks back, I was hoping to see even mock ups or planned specs atleast about that... anyway sectorlord thanks for all the great info really appreciate it.

today it switched on magically and is working 90% , just a few minor issues like speaker not working.. one line in screen

my phone is about 7months old. i wanted to know how to make that water indicator white again so i can get my phone replaced or repaired for a cheaper price.. cause last time i went to sony with my water indicators all Red they just looked at it and clearly told me pay us 25000Rs. and take new phone cause your phone is water damage..

is there a way to make these indicators white so i can get my phone fixed??

suggestions are welcome
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoxx3m:
Your phone IMEI is in their database, so answer is no, you can't fool them on that way. Once the indicator become red it can't change back. Second, they will see oxidation inside your phone (corrosion). And this kind of questions are not welcome on xda because this is fraud.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Thread is closed.

We at XDA do not condone "Fraud" when it concerns manufacturers and other areas.

It's disheartening when you receive water damage to a device, whether by accident or otherwise.

However, we don't discuss these dealings, as it would concern legal issues with manufacturers, which of course XDA will avoid.

It's possible you can get some replacement parts on E-Bay, as I would advise that. Breakdown and repair instructions are posted everywhere.

[Asus Transformer TF700] DaDroidDude:
Hello All.

I took advice and rooted this device and installed the aforementioned ROM

I'd heard that it was much leaner and quicker than the stock ROM and didn't have the lag that this tablet was know for.

Unfortunately it's still very slow and lags a LOT!

I did set up two users however.

I'm wondering if that might be the problem.

Also, I haven't updated the ROM since the initial installation.

Any thoughts?

Thanks/

[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
CROMi-X 5.4 is the latest version - there are no updates, but it should not be "slow" - however you define that.

I never used multi-user - no idea if that has any effect....

A clean install often does help if performance deteriorates over time. Depends how long you have been running this installation.

If you flash the rom again, make sure you select "fsync off" in the installer. That gives you the biggest performance boost.

You can also try to run CROMi-X with data2sd, moving the /data partition to a fast microSD and therefor avoiding the slow internal memory altogether (you can still use it for storage).

Then look at your setup: Lots of widgets on the home screen will slow it down - period.

Check what apps you have running, maybe use Greenify to hibernate the ones not in use.

For me CROMi-X never was slow, but I have to admit: the latest version of CROMBi-KK runs better ;)

You just have to live with a few bugs relating to the dock....

Hey guys,

just rooted my z1c with the completely awesome and easy new rooting method and installed V4A. Love it but it seems to be not working with the newest jetaudio player. Tried searching the xda forums but kinda got overwhelmed by the results and wasn't skilled enough to narrow down the search enough to get any useful results. I guess i have some settings enabled in jetaudio i shouldn't have. Tried all i could find but there seems to be no change...

Do you guys have any ideas why that could be?

Would love to hear from you,

regards

Clemens
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindyabiznis:
im not 100% mate but i think that V4A is only compatible with the standard walkman player and not others.

if you want awesome sound and to use it on other players ... (i like n7player :good: ) try the ac!d audio mod, it works with all players as it mods your core audio lib files etc :highfive:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xCJ999:
hey man, thanks for the quick reply :highfive: I definitly can say v4a works well with n7, i'm just not 100% sold on the player yet. Guess i just got used to jetaudio ;)

Will definitly give ac!d a try. Have you ever tried v4a ... pretty amazing what it can do especially if you have some nice IRS samples. Maybe i just need to buy the n7 and get used to it :D

btw. any custom rom you particularly like? Now that i have backed up my drm keys the floodgates of rom hell are open for me ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindyabiznis:
No problem mate glad I could help, I was just going on my last phone Xperia M - the V4A port of that only works with the Walkman player, well as I understand that's what was described in the thread, I didn't actually flash it.

I've used the ac!d mod for a few years since i had my Ray... it was awesome on that, made a huge difference in quality, I had it flashed on my M and it was worth it, not quite as good as on the Ray but think the M lacks quite a bit on sound quality and volume through the headphone port :(

To answer your question about a ROM I only got my z1c yesterday and I've flashed KitSlim and DoomKernel as like to stick with the stock/modified stock look on any of my ROMs with all the tweaks and performance gains. So far its really good I like it, but then I'm used to using a mid-range good value phone that's modded to f**k to make it as good as (or as close to as I can get) a flagship... (software wise anyway, my Ray was great for ports and mods)

With DoomKernel you get FauxSound support which is amazing (apart from the random FC's that I need to ask about) for pre-amping your headphones as much as you like without ANY distortion :fingers-crossed:

The only thing now is that I actually have a flagship device lol - so nothing needs porting and I've pretty much got all the performance I need because the phones an absolute powerhouse :victory:

Depends on how much customisation you want really - your not gonna beat modified stock for performance and battery life BUT if you want all the customisations and bells and whistles then try the CM based ROMS:good:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xCJ999:
yeah, its crazy how the output power for headphones varies from phone to phone. The Z1C is one of the better ones in my oppionion. I'm not a big fan of preamping from the phone cause to my ears it always messes up the sound ... so i'm curious about doomlords kernel...

Really good to hear your view on the whole rom thing. I guess it's 3 things that count for me ... sound quality, battery life and privacy/security ... I'm still not clear how secure it is to use a rooted phone( needed for V4A) with supersu but ... what the heck ;)

So I guess I'll stay on the stock rom for now and maybe l'll look into doomlords kernel as well ... I kinda really want to have dt2w but it looks like its not happening for now ;)

thanks for your extensive response :good:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindyabiznis:
Yeah i totally understand what you mean about the pre-amping.. on the M if i pre-amped above 4/5Db (in n7player) its caused horrible distortion and did mess up the sound but on the z1c its genuinely fantastic.

I wouldn't worry about security of your phone, especially if you've got root and/or a custom ROM as any of the fixes needed to protect "security risks" are usually already implemented, if not included as mods/tweaks in the ROM then just because you're pretty much fully up to date on software.

If your looking at sound quality and battery life mate i seriously recommend KitSlim and the DoomKernel, I've just had 2days 14hours 53mins battery life (put it on charge at 5% remaining) i used it for music (n7player) for about 3-4 hours each day, regular phone usage, installing a few apps and the odd photo/video to test out the new camera (must say I'm impressed, people moaning about poor quality low light photos - get a REAL camera then... its a mobile phone!!) AND I've had the brightness on 100% the whole time :D

So yeah pretty pleased with my first choice of ROM on this phone, plus the maker of it is uploading a new one i think today or this week :victory:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xCJ999:
Sorry it took me so long to reply, have been busy .

I installed Kitslim and love it!!! battery performance is stellar and it works flawlessly. Really a pitty I'm not allowed to post a thread in developers section yet, cause I wanted to let the devs/guys who ported it know how much I love their rom. Can't wait for evo 6. anyway... I definitly want to try out doomlords kernel, but am a bit hesitant about unlocking the bootloader. Did a TA Backup but still a bit frightened about bricking my phone/needing the keys for warrenty and something going wrong when restoring them ;)

Guess I'll just wait if he will manage to incorporate dt2w ... having that would be worth the risk. Btw. do you know why omarainea isn't porting the newer kernel version? I wonder how much work it is porting a kernel and if i could learn it ... might be a bit sophomoric though ;)
