[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MewRage:
I was browsing on 4chan's wallpaper board and I came across this guy's homescreen and I really want to achieve this look on my phone with hopefully something like a Paranoid Android ROM for my S2 because of it's high customizability. I want to keep it all lightweight and performant since the S2 isn't necessarily powerful. I have a newer S2 model and it's from rogers but T-Mobile ROMs seem to work fine on it. Right now my model number with this carbon rom is SGH-T989, I want to change ROM as fast as possible since it's really unstable and generally slow/glitchy so I want to overhaul my phone into something almost identical to the picture attached.

Thank you for your time!

Hello ,

I'm using Exitenz ROm . In fact , i have a problem with skype . I have dowload the micro application of torch light . I try to use it when i 'm in Skype video conversation but no sucess .

I can't make video skype call and on the flashlight . Anyone could help me ?

Thanks
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArturGaspar:
You can't use the camera in two apps at the same time, and the torch app needs to use the camera to control the flash.

The same happens if you try to open the camera app with the flash on.

The treo lacks Wifi and HSDPA. A little slow compared to the Tytn (300MHz)

It is more sexy though!!

looks too much like an old blackbarry device imho

not a design after my taste but each to their own i guess
[General Topics] weezy:
Treos or anything with a qwerty keyboard with easy access (like under the screen) is great. I would use the Treo 700w or 750, but I don't like the screen dimension. The keyboard works great for contact search and one handed data entry.

Treo vs TyTn, I would get tytn. (I got a tytn, no good enough device for how much I spent on it. My camera die on me)

Bottom line, the great for one handed use. I miss their form factor, but the square screen is horrible.
[General Topics] PPCNUT:
I would go for the Tytn without a doubt.

So I took a TA backup of my first Z1. Due to some defect i got a new z1 and i forgot to take a backup of its TA partition before i unlokced it. So i just wanted to know what will happen if i flash the previous Z1's TA partition on my current z1.

NEVER NEVER NEVER do something like this.

It'll hard brick your device 100%. ;)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravi_buz:
thanks. that means i can never use pcc ever again
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Probably...but you have flashtool and Sony finally removed all that stupid things that was breaking up when you unlocked bootloader.

You still have 99.9% of device / software / so it's not that bad
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Use flashtool to relock, then you can use pccompanion again
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravi_buz:
Wait! are you serious? I can use flashtool to re lock it? will it work? Then why do we have so much discussion around taking TA backup?

Or is it that TA copys all the DRM keys to that we can use all the Sony fancy stuff and locking via flashtool just looks down the boot loader without restoring those DRM keys
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Flashtool relocks the bootloader but it does not restore the TA backup.

You will also have to use flashtool to unlock it again as the official method will not work. It sees the DRM keys have gone and assumes the phone is already unlocked so aborts the procedure, but flashtool (from v0.9.16.0) will work to re-unlock it. Earlier versions need some reconfiguration of folders to make it work, so always use the latest version
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentexcitebot:
Just curious, why does using the wrong TA hard-brick your phone? No soft-brick? Is TA a partition with just keys?

Sorry for not starting a new thread.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravi_buz:
Good question. Even i would like to know about this
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Xperia devices will*definitely*be bricked if incorrect data is written to the TA partition. The TA partition contains IMEI, serial number and other important data and probably include some sort of integrity check. Even flashing the TA partition with the one from another device of the same model bricks it. No fastboot and no flashtool will work after flashing wtong TA backup.

This is not just a theory, there are many users who actually did that - just check XDA ;)

high there!

according to a little how-to i tried to remap 2 buttons and its chars:

[GUIDE - Simple way to change physical keyboard keymappings!]

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2179306

if i mount my system partition to read/write i am able to write those keymappings in /system/usr/keychars/. when i try then to tab those buttons, everything is like before. if i reboot my phone, nothing gets changed but my changes in those keychar-files (*.kcm) are still present.

where else could these keymaps be safed? what could be wrong?

for eg:

key COMMA {
label, number: ','
base: ','
shift: ';'
ctrl, alt, meta: none
}

if i press shift-comma, still the symbol "<" gets wrote as text.....

i welcome any hints, cheers

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJsevol:
That's called light bleed. Not much you can do aside from replacing it from google or changing the screen. I have it on the top right of my screen.

I have it. It's really not bad and is kinda normal. Please don't warranty over something as small as this. Drives up the cost for us. I didn't.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fitz420:
That's crazy. If you purchase something and its not working up to its full potential and its under warranty it would be crazy to not have it fixed. This phone wasn't expensive by typical standards but for me cost a small fortune. Light bleed is annoying as anything. Why should OP live with this defect? I wouldn't.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boy that is so wrong, google makes a bunch of devices, sell part of them, and let some to replace, if they dont have spare devices, they will not make the device cost more, they will rather make more devices or will refund the Money.

just look at nexus 4 launch,launched, went out of stock for some time, but yet, people with problems(the most were battery/screen) could still get new devices

Agreed, i wouldn´t too
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rancur3p1c:
no, they go, wow lot of really pedantic users here who return over the smallest things, we charge more to cover cost of returns

letting the device get too hot is what causes this. glue holding the backlight to the lcd panel warms and weakens.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
im sorry, but for the price of the nexus, that fee can only be at max what? $10 or less so idc.

and the lcd panel warms, its a desing fault, this is a plus that Samsung gets, their termal design is really good
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raptir:
The issue is that almost every IPS LCD has some degree of backlight bleed. If it's bad enough that it's visible in a well-lit room, then I'd ask for them to replace it under warranty. If you need to look hard for it and it's only if you turn the brightness up in a dark room, then I'd say it's "normal."
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rancur3p1c:
at the price of the nexus? It's $400, not $600 like it should be.

$10? LMAO. The phone doesn't get repaired. The entire BOM cost is sunk. That's like $250.

---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 PM ----------

yeah. I've never seen any that's visible in well lit room-- it's always "at night when the screen is completely black it looks only slightly less black in this corner when the screen is at full brightness"-- you shouldn't be at full brightness at night anyways
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
you misunderstood me, the nexus is sold for 349 bucks (16gb), that price is so low, that the fee that they have for rma must be low too
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vlatkonexus4:
Thanks to all of your answer guys,but here in macedonia Nexus 5 costs http://www.vip.mk/telefoni/gsm-advisor/lg/1294914/nexus-5#ad-image-0

more than 400 euros now,when i bought it it was 500 euros,so i will use my waranty and i don't want too much light bleed on it

Guys, I downloaded Criskelo's 4.3 ROM a while ago, and now I want to go back to original Sonys's 4.4, because I want to have the TV app again (Brazil's Z1 comes with TV), how can I do it? Is C6943 the model I need to download the ROM? :confused::confused:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Yeap...

Just download that firmware and flash it via flashtool.

You can exclude app wipes and try to preserve data but I would recommend to wipe app and flash clean and fresh 4.4.

I remember I had to flash the kernel separately, do I need to do this now? And what should I tick in the flashtool? What mode should I use?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riaes:
No you don't have to flash the kernel separately as the firmware already replaces the kernel. using flash mode, i just leave it default as i want a clean install(wipe cache, applog, data)

I just redownloaded Adaway and it appears to be doing it's job without any hiccups. My question here is there are some checkboxes under Preferences that I really need to know if they should be checked or not. I am under the 10 post limit so I can't ask where I got the link to use and their tutorial came up short on Preference settings. If anyone knows which boxes to check for normal usage and whether or not Adaway needs to be restarted after every update would be a big help to me and other users. Should all boxes be checked under preferences ? and if not which ones? Does Adaway need to be rebooted after an update?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
The device does not need to be rebooted after updating the hosts file, however it is recommended. With regards to the preferences menu, I only have the option "check for updates on boot" checked. You don't need the other options checked unless ad blocking doesn't work for you and you need an alternative method to diagnose the issue.

You will need to flash it using Safestrap.

Once you get it up and booting - install safestrap again, uninstall recovery, uninstall safestrap, and lastly unroot.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jreed3786:
So how exactly do you return to stock to bring the phone back to AT&T without them knowing, for warranty return?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
Returning to factory stock all depends on how heavily YOU modified the device.

Here's some scenarios.

1. You rooted. Installed superuser. Installed titanium backup (or favorite app for backup) and backed up entire system. Then you modified with xposed, froze apps, or whatever you wanted to do with root access.

Now to return to stock you remove xposed, unfreeze apps, and undo whatever you did with root. If you changed anything system wise use titanium (or favorite app) to restore system files. Then in superuser click "full un-root". You should be back to stock now. Perform a factory data reset if you don't think your getting your phone back.

2. You rooted, installed superuser, busy box, and safestrap. In safestrap you made a nandroid backup and saved it somewhere. Then you wiped and installed a rom to some slot and had fun!

Now to return to stock place your nandroid backup in stock slot. Reboot and it should be back to stock with root. Uninstall safestrap and busy box. Now use superuser to do a full un-root.

3. You rooted and had fun! You forgot to backup anything and are now scared. You can go to see a Samsung rep at bestbuy and have him re-flash kit Kat for ya.

4. You rooted and had fun! But didn't back anything up and don't have a bestbuy nearby. You can search for an at&t service center. They can re-flash kit Kat for you.

5. You rooted and had fun! But didn't backup and there's no bestbuy or at&t service nearby. You can send your device to www.mobiletechvideos.com and pay them to fix your fun. The process usually takes a week.

6. You rooted and had fun but no backups, no bestbuy, no at&t service, and can't afford mobile tech. You are now up the creek without a paddle. You have to wait for a restore nc2 thread, or Odin tar file gets released.
