You are kidding...-_- I thought it was just my phone. I even went to the store today to get my phone sent away for repair work as Sony advised me that it was a hardware issue...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdithug:
I spoke with Sony this morning. Customer service representative informed me they will be issuing a firmware update in the coming weeks (roughly 2 weeks). This applies to Sony Canada. I bought my z2 from a Sony store so updates will come from Sony Canada.
[Android General] TheUnladenSwallow:
Well android L is looking really shmexy, I think this should be a general thread for discussion of L. To get us started I've got a few things.

1. Holo is dead, long live Quantum Paper/Material! I like it, it finally gets rid of holo dark and is highly improved over holo white. Conversion is going to be an absolute PAIN though with all our user apps. Mismatched interfaces everywhere.

2. Lots of features similar to those of custom ROMs, I think this is a very good thing and that in general the Google implementations are cleaner and nicer. Examples: Lockscreen notifications, hover like notifications (though a heads-up thing was in the kitkat source code)

3. Heavy unification of Google services and android, chrome tabs in recents, Google now is basically the notification system, pretty much every aosp system app has an improved play store counterpart. I think this is a good thing other than aosp ROM compiling issues, for example, w/o flashing PA stock Gapps we would have outdated/discontinued calender, sms, camera and email. Even after flashing pa stock Gapps we have the movie studio and news and weather apps that are old (and kinda gross in terms of ui) which aren't even on nexus devices. Also Gapps packages in general are still a legal gray area. I want unification of nexus and aosp in terms of continually developed elements and for deprecated services to be removed from aosp when they are removed from nexus firmware.

4. ANDROID E'ERYWEAR (get it, wear). I can't wait for this stuff personally.

5. The death of traditional oem theming. If oem s want to theme android, they need to change their philosophy. Take touchwiz for example, Samsung has an android wear watch coming out today, meaning google now, meaning transition away from s voice. They will likely have to have more design elements in common with stock in many more areas as well. Also it looks like chrome will pretty much be necessary for the best user experience, so no oem custom browsers. Samsung in general has tried to make replacement apps for just about every Google service and built their own framework, but the Google framework and app set is now being integrated to the OS.

6 and beyond! Your stuff!

We all know that electronic devices especially display screens don't work well when strong magnetic field is nearby.

The TyTN's case has powerfull magnets in it. In most cases screen aligment problem develops in few days or weeks of usage.

So if phone is the case for a long period of time can magnets became a reason of misalignment?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pof:
The original case is not the reason, I have SA issue and never used it. Read this thread on TyTN accessories forum, the same has been discussed here a while ago:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=279331
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joedoe:
Yes I just found this thread. However it looks like hardware isn't the only reason for misalignment. Some peoples had it fixed by uninstalling certain applications, other by upgrading ROM, etc. My previous device has developed alignment problem after a week of usage and I haven't changed the usage pattern during this time and yes, I have used the stock case.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Osir1s:
Im inclined to agree with you, ive severly limited the usage of the device in regards to the stock case. Any case whose magnets are powerful enough to altar a switch in the device and change it to landscape when you take it out of the case half the time, is, in my books powerful enough to cause other issues.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] y2whisper:
I agree, while using the case I had no problems, but now that i lost my case and installed other programs, it has been happening frequently and I feel your frustrations. So far it may be the skin i am using with Wisbar but I got to play around with it to figure it out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] steveweb:
I'm not sure... There's a lot of variables could influence the device and create the SA issue... I have bought my TyTN device about 25 days ago... and (for now) it hasnt presented the SA issue. For 3 weeks I havent used the bundle case... now I'm using the bundle case (because for me is very very very perfect for my exigency)... so... I hope that it will be all right!!!!!!!!!!!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cruiserman:
There does not seem to be any concensus on what causes it, whether it's conpletly a h/w or s/w issue. if htc is stating that it's a h/w problem, it's very disturbing that some that have had it repaired are are claiming of still having SA issues.

Can we say that this issue at least consistant on each device? In other words, SA is common, but varies in how "off" the SA is when compairing devices (TYTN A is 1cm off to the left on the right side of the screen, TYTN B is 5mm off to the right, etc) between devices. But is how "off" SA is consistantly the same on TYTN A and TYTN B?

I'm thinking that if TYTN A is always 1cm off to the left, then do a offset re-alignment....don't center the stylus on the crosshairs on the left side. Touch the screen 1cm to the left side of the righthand side crosshairs to compensate for the mis-alignment.

Ultimatly, HTC needs to fix this, but this may be a good bandaid.

[Java for Android App Development] Savio1990:
Hi ,

I am an Android developer and I need to implement a widget. However, my constraint is that I cannot use a broadcast receiver to implement the widget. So is there any solution or way around to implement the widget without the broadcast receiver? Or maybe any UI way of showing if an application is running without having to use broadcast receiver?. I am desperately waiting for an answer.

Thanks,

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Paduretu Ionut:
Root your phone and use RootExplorer or any root browser to delete unwanted apps from /system/app. But be carefull, if you delete an important app you're kinda screwed...

You could also swap External sd memory with the internal, but this is not so good either...look it up on the forum.
[Samsung Gear Fit] nicknld:
I've just bought the Gear Fit today and it's working really well. I'm using it with a Note 3, but I would really like for my phone to be silent while the Fit does vibrate and show notifications.

At the moment the Fit only vibrates when my phone is also on vibration. If the sound is turned on or when it's silent my Fit doesn't even show notifications automatically.

Is this simply not possible or am I doing something wrong?
[Samsung Gear Fit] adjenkins:
I have a Gear Fit with a Note 3 as well. My phone is always set to silent (no noise or vibration on phone) and I can still receive the alert on the gear fit via vibration. I would have expected the notifications once chosen on gear manager to always be pushed to the gear fit.
[Samsung Gear Fit] TheFox37:
that's no normal : my S4 mini is always in silent mode, and I receive my notifications correctly on the Fit
[Samsung Gear Fit] nicknld:
I have figured out the problem after receiving another notification than Whatsapp. It seemed to be an issue with Whatsapp and had to manually turn on the vibrations in Whatsapp notification settings. It's now working properly.

1 - on the iphone i can backup everything threw itunes ( contact , app , photo )

-on my htc m8 im using htc backup , does it backup all those stuff like apple devices ?

especially the photo part cause like i see there is google photo it does backup everything by itself

so if i wanna restore from backup i need to restore my files alone then the photo alone ?

2 - i load all my photo , app , music on the sd card , each time i save a pic from the net like fb as example i need to move it to the sd , is there a way that it go to the sd automatically ?

3 - i have 9gags application and some games , each time i open them , they save all the loaded image and gif , and they are saved automatically on the phone storage

how can i disable that they are really annoying , and they even backup on google photo so i need to delete them from the phone storage and google

4 - if u can link me for any guide step by step to root my htc ill be thankful ( cause i know **** abt android :p )

and is there any 1 click program to root it like on apple with evasi0n?

5 - is there any file manager for htc i can download or something? like on samsung phones ?

i did download few from play store but i can't do **** there ( delete , edit , move ) i just can see them

6 - anything i should know abt since im new to the system ?

& if there is any must have apps

thanks in advanced for any help
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suprtrukr425:
1 - I use google to back up most of my stuff, esp. contacts. There are also backup apps, though they are more functional if you are rooted.

2 - I would say non-rooted then no. Android 4.4 made it difficult for apps to use the ext sd properly. After rooting, it would depend on the apps capability, and weather or not you have done something to add ext sd functionality.

3 - I don't use that app, but check in the settings for an option to not automatically save.

4 - There are all-in-one tools in the development sub-forum. Be very careful, and do your research before deciding to root. It is alot of fun, but you can mess up and cause yourself a headache, or brick your device.

5 - ES File explorer, in the Play Store, is free and should do anything you need. That said, you will have trouble with the ext sd card if you're not rooted.

6 - Check the play store for the most popular apps. My personal favorite right now is the Clash of Clans game. Also, I use Dolphin as my web browser. There is lots of good stuff, too much to list really.

Also, welcome to XDA!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxer3310:
Hey there, guys. I've been around XDA a while & have messed around with different ROMS. I had found one that I liked (decent battery life is the most important for me) & stuck with ParanoidAndroid 3.60 (4.2 based ROM) for Android 4.1 (I believe the firmware version is 10.4.2.20). TWRP is 2.5.0.0. This was around 1-2 years ago, and I finally decided it was time to upgrade it.

Can anyone point me the direction on where to start? I would like to update to the latest (or most stable) android version, if possible. I have a basic knowledge of fastboot & how it works.:fingers-crossed:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duchman:
First, you will have to upgrade your bootloader to the latest version to run the latest recovery. I don't know if there's an easier way of doing this, but I'd suggest installing a stock ROM and then unlocking/rooting/installing recovery again.

You can download the latest official firmware from here (assuming you have a TF300T model): http://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF300T/HelpDesk_Download/

Make sure to select the one with the correct SKU.

Then, follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1757077

This will wipe all your data so make sure to backup all the files you need.

The bootloader will most likely remain unlocked, so what you need now is root and recovery. There are plenty of guides for those, so find the right one for you. You can download the latest TWRP from here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/97

An installation guide is on the same page, but make sure to download the one ending with 4.2 since you will be on the latest firmware version (here's the name of the file you'll probably need if you have a TF300T model: openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-tf300t-4.2.blob).

Hope this will help ;)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxer3310:
Thanks for replying! I got it to boot, but it stays stuck on the Asus logo with the loading circle. I installed the correct TWRP recovery. I tried rebooting, but it says no OS installed. Furthermore, it does not mount the External storage. I can browse the files through the file Manager in TWRP.

EDIT: It rebooted & I have everything back. It just took forever to reboot. Thanks for your help!!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duchman:
I'm glad I was able to help. Could you tell me the order of your actions and what happened after what? I'm a bit confused as to why it'd get stuck like this.

Also, you might need a newer recovery for more recent ROMs. There are both 2.7.0.1 and 2.7.1.0 versions available in the development section.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxer3310:
I did everything as you posted:

1. Downloaded the most current firmware for the TF300T from the Asus site.

2. Pushed it to my device using fastboot

3. Installed custom recovery for my version of Android

4. Rebooted.

The Installation bar completed after I pushed the firmware & recovery. It just took long to reboot. I read that you have to let the ROM "stabilize," so I suspect it might have been the cause of the hang. Everything went pretty smooth after the reboot, though. I installed TWRP 2.7.1.0 (as you posted above) and installed a new ROM. Thank you very much for taking the time to reply. I love this update! :victory:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toMOne:
Actually I purchased a second hand rooted and unlocked HTC One.

It came with 4.4.2 with Sense 5.5, I received the OTA notification and updated it.

After the reboot it came back as it was. So I restarted it again with the update wizard.

The phone entered a boot loop, so I long pressed Vol- to enter recovery and then started to press everything and wiped the whole phone...

Now I am stuck with a HTC logo which never gets past. Only when I long press Power button the the capacitive buttons are starts to blink then the phone restarts and if I long press Vol- it enters Recovery.

The phone has installed TWRP on it.

This is what is shown at the Recovery screen:

M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilyn:
So I used a guide a few months back to make my HTC One into the Google Play edition. Today I finally got around to installing some updates. I went to 4.4.3 and installed it, and then noticed that there was another update out, 4.4.4, and went ahead and it installed that as well. Everything came out fine, but I'm having some issues:

The biggest is a flickering kind of screen glitch - I've attached a photo. I can't take screenshots anymore, either; it tells me that 'storage may be in use'. It goes away if I swipe or change something, but always comes back if I, say, reopen the keyboard. It happens everywhere, including the status bar.

The powerdown menu also no longer displays. My screen simply goes dark like it does when the menu opens, but it doesn't display the options. It still functions as if it's there, as I've been able to use it to shut down my phone.

I haven't been able to find anything online about it - perhaps I should just roll back to the last version I was running if I can't figure this out.

Anybody know? Wasn't having issues like this before.
