[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] droidtom:
Try replacing the battery. Maybe borrow a friends battery just to test if that's the problem. My phone used to power on fine and almost full battery. It would shutoff suddenly so when I powered it on again it would show the battery still almost fully charged. This happend a few times and sometimes I noticed the battery level would drop for example was at 87% it shut off, powered it on and now showed 42%.. I replaced the battery and everything was A okay

So I ended up bringing the phone to sprint. They said it was a software issue and gave me a new one. He also said there was a bad update or something but i wasn't on a stock rom so i'm not sure how true that is.

On the last device I rooted and installed clockwork mod using flashify. I then restored my backup of my old sph-l720 (non triband) and it worked for about a day then at some point it died and was stuck in the position mentioned in the OP. Does anyone thing that the phone bricked because of my restore method or because of some weird circumstances on sprint's end? I want to restore but don't want to brick it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] troyboytn:
If that backup came from a non tri-band l720 S4, that is what happened to your l720t. Do not restore that backup to your new one if it is a l720t

Any idea what about it caused it to fail catastrophicaly like that after a little over a day of flawless use?

I don't know if this is the best place to post but I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

A number of my Outlook contacts have Birthdays entered in the Birthday field with a 7 day reminder. Although I only get 1 reminder in Outlook on the TyTn I get 3 reminders for the same event at the same time (it used to be 2 but it's never been only 1!).

I know I don't have duplicate events in Outlook because I've checked.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

I had the same problem. It was caused by multiple backing up and restores under different regional settings.

Solution:

Remove all calendar events (SKTools), kill the partnership, resyncronize. Don't play with regional settings.

Is there a way to change files within a kdz file?

We can extract the kdz-s into *.dz and dll and extract the partitions from the dz file and then merge the system.bin.

I would like to know whether it is possible to do the other way? To change for example the LGSystemUI.apk within the system partition and then compile the dz/kdz file and flash it back to the phone.

Thanks for the answers.

Hello everyone!

I think it would useful for everyone who have little hands and this big smartphone :)

- It is very useful thing to launch favorite apps by one slide from lockscreen - BUT! it is very difficult to reach this shortcuts (quick launch icons) on bottom of lockscreen. - I have stock ROM.

Please can anybody wrote how to move this shortcuts up ? I have tried all applications that exchanged standard lockscreen, but no one did it how it is necessary :(

- It can be some application or ROM modification... but it will be great if it will.

Hello, i am using a rooted micromax a114(canvas 2.2) today i just faced a very big glitch and it is frustrating me.

When i plug in me charger to my cell, it automaticaly starts reciving multiple touches all around the screen while i disn't tap it. First i thought it might due to voltage in socket but when i just plugged the wire without turning mains on, it still behaved same. Please help me. I can't use my phone while charging i don't want it to grow further.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pandages:
I have an original TF201 from the first 6 months of production. I haven't used it in a few years, out of frustration with the lack of updates. It is untouched, unrooted, bare OS of the latest release. Now that my warranty is expired, I think I'd like to:

Unlock it

use nvflash to back up the encryption

replace the bootloader

replace the OS with Kitkat

Is this possible? Am I on the right track? What do I need to do to start? I don't want to brick this thing.

Tangent, is it worthwhile to do this to a TF201? Will there be significant improvements to performance and functionality? Stock it is a bit sluggish and no longer able to use much of the play-store or many google apps. It's useless to me in the current state.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Stuffdude99:
Hello XDA,

I have SGH-T999 phone or T Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 with CM 11 M8 snapshot and i am facing some major problems with it. Yesterday (7/14/14) i upgraded the rom to m8 snapshot and faced some problem after i loaded up my device. i had problem with my keyboard. i believe this is because i had flashed android l keyboard. But when this was happening i thought the problem i had was caused by the gapps. Thus i went on to download the 4.4.4 gapps. the problem still continued and also i could not use my menu and back button. So i backed up all my stuff including system data. i factory reset my phone and flashed the latest snapshot and the latest gapps. i started up my phone and it worked perfectly. I then recovered all my data and when i was asked to reboot my device i didn't. i first installed my xposed framework and then rebooted. From that point on my device is stuck in a boot loop and i cant fix it. Also when i pressed the power button, my device vibrated twice and then if i pressed it again it would vibrate once. I think the answer is to just restore the user data and not the system. if this is the answer is there anyway i can get my user dictionary and wifi connections back? Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You'll probably need to factory reset again to get it booting. Using an app such as titanium backup, only restore user data and apps. (Restoring dictionary and wifi connections should be ok). If you were previously on an earlier version of that rom, restoring all data should be ok, so im suspecting its probably got something to do with xposed framework.

I dont know a lot about xposed or cm though, so maybe someone else can verify all of that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Stuffdude99:
Thanks!

Thanks what you suggested worked. Thanks again
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Syke21:
So because we have a CM phone we've got the option ALREADY to start using the ART runtime instead of the dalvik one.

My question is: Has anyone tried it? As the warning message that comes up is pretty scary but the fact that it's happening in Android L makes it sound like it's a pretty safe bet to start using it now.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Jack of Clubs:
Actually all kitkat builds that have developer options enabled have the option to switch to art. Quite a few apps don't support art yet, like xposed, so I'm not switching yet.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Not sure what you mean, Android L use ART exclusively, but it is backward compatible with Dalvik apps.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unknown1205:
im running on ART. its built into kitkat, just not on default like it will be with android L. loving it, great battery and super speedy.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Syke21:
Thanks, I use that app too so I'll not use ART just yet. What apps do you use with xposed btw? (PM if you need)
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenbr:
Slingbox with ART

The last time I tried ART the Slingbox app would not work so I had to go back. I've read that Slingbox is coming out with an update to their Android App in late July. I don't know if it will address this but I'll probably try again after that update.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Jack of Clubs:
i dont need things like gravity box since the phone is already running cyanogenmod. but i have things like statusbar scroll to top, and rootclock, and a thing to default the youtube app to my subscriptions. ones i want working that are not are appopsxposed which crashes when you try to set permissions, and nfc lockscreenoff enabler which isnt unlocking my phone with an nfc tag.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJ RIMMER!:
When I select ART it doesn't stick on reboot. Every time it comes back as Dalvik.

Can anyone offer any thoughts on what might be holding it back?

Running ART since I've had my Nexus 5 and still doing it with my OPO, no problems. The benefits are definitely worth it for me, makes SwiftKey less laggy when it comes to opening up the list of emojis.

All sorted now.

I had to reinstall Xposed, and uninstall the framework from inside the app, then uninstall the installer again.

Working nicely.

[Nook Touch General] rdoherty47:
I've rooted my NST using NookManager 0.5.0 and also installed the same version of NTGAppsAttack. I am extremely new to all of this.

Basically, before installing the AppsAttack (I think it was this install that triggered my problem), I was able to view the entire root directory of my Nook, (/system, etc) but now all I can view is /sdcard. Even when I remove the SD card, I still can't go up another level. How do I get back to be able to view all the root directories on my nook?

Thank you and sorry in advance if this is a stupid question - my searches proved fruitless :(

Edit: Also, while I'm on here (and this could be a related problem), when I plug my NST into my laptop via USB, I can't see the Nook. The NST is charging successfully, but I want to be able to see my NST's file structure.
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
If all you've done is root with NM and install the Google apps I don't know how you could have been able to see the entire root file structure when connected via USB (is that what you meant?).

The drivers installed when you connect your NST to your computer don't provide for this kind of file view, only for storage, both internal and external (i.e., the two sdcards). You would typically have to install an app (like Root Browser or Root Explorer) in order to examine the system structure.

So.....?

You don't mention how you're trying to access the root directory. If you're using ReLaunch that was installed with NookManager, to change the launchers behavior from the home screen click on the gear in the upper right corner, this enters you into the settings menu, click on advanced settings, general settings, make sure that the don't leave start directory item is unchecked, go back and under file manager settings check show hidden files and uncheck hide known extensions. Back out again and in the main advanced settings menu scroll down and click on the save settings and restart item. You should be able to view anything on internal and external storage. As for Windows , unfortunately without 3rd party software it will only display the first partition on any external device.

OB
[Nook Touch General] rdoherty47:
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I can't view ANY file system, nothing, when I connect my Nook to my laptop (Windows).

As for viewing my root file system on the Nook, it is via ReLaunch and when I reset the settings I was able to view it.
[Nook Touch General] :
Have you tried a reboot?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
The Nook usually has two UMS (USB Mass Storage) volumes showing.

They will show up in Windows on the task bar as two drive letters (I: & J: or whatever).

Whether those drive letters have anything backing them is another question.

I disabled that junk on my Nooks a long time ago.

Some of the problems are that it restricts you to FAT volumes and delegating volumes is a bad idea anyway.

To "see" files you need a file explorer app or UMS or just use ADB.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Homeuser66:
Hello, I'm not sure where I should post this, so forgive me if it's in the wrong area. If it is, can a moderator move it to the proper place please. Thanks!

Going forward to my question. I have an AT&T (SGH-I377) Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (un-rooted) running Kit-Kat 4.4.2.

I also have an AT&T (SGH-497) Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (Rooted with just SU no custom ROM), running Jelly Bean 4.1.2

I have DirecTV GenieGo on both devices. My Watch list plays perfectly fine on my Phone. Since my Tablet is Rooted, I can't play any videos because I'm Rooted. The show would load, start to buffer then crash. I have tried RootCloak and RootCloak Plus, none of which will allow me to watch my programs. I have posted in that section for help, but its a dead post (told by the OP of that post). All I want to do, is somehow, play my watch list on my Phone and mirror it on my tablet.

Is this at all possible? Would I need to get some sort of transfer cable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] absinthesummer:
I don't really have an answer for why root cloak isn't working, but if you're looking for suggestions for a cable, there are many to choose from- just research which will meet your needs better (ie usb otg, micro-to-micro hdmi, etc). You can also try wireless (bt, nfc, beam). I wonder if there's a way to disable the drm protection in the genie app itself... have you looked for a modified apk? It's possible someone has had the same issue & found a workaround. You'd have to look & find out.

Edited to add, have you tried disabling superuser/supersu temporarily, to see if the app will work? In theory, disabling supersu temporarily would essentially be disabling root access temporarily. The files needed for root would still be in the system, but if su is disabled, root access is also disabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Homeuser66:
Thanks for the reply!

I did find a modified apk. It loads when using root cloak. But when it starts buffering, it crashes. I've spoken to the IP and he did it was dead. So now in looking for another way around it. I can play a show on my phone, using the GenieGo app, but I can't share it or mirror my screen onto another device. I'm looking to see if there are other ways to do this I can connect the two devices by wifi, Bluetooth, but the problem is when I launch DirecTV genie go, it only plays on my phone, no option to share or send. If I have to do wired, then so be it..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] absinthesummer:
Sucks the modified apk didn't work :/ I do hope you find a working solution, and I will keep an eye out to see if I find a solution as well. Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Homeuser66:
Thanks for your help!

version S III running kit kat 4,4,2 yuck

I am no phone guru I am more like a phone retard. I did manage to put a different ROM on my wife's S III It was a Straight talk S III. That was very easy.I did not like the phone I had with ST so I bought a S III from a private dealer. it worked great with my contract with Version. I was lied to by the manager of my local version store and the next thing you know I am paying almost $300.00 a month. I gathered up there equipment went to there store and returned it to them. they kept the equipment and then had the nerve to still charge me $900.00 for it and more for the broken contract. I am taking them to court. I will not pay for what they have.

Sorry about the tangent. I have a S III running kitcat 4.4.2. I have spent a month pouring over web page after webpage. trying every piece of software that any body told me to try either thru Odin or Sim card. nothing works the thing is still locked up tighter then a drum. When I use Odin or the simcard way It always ends in red letters saying failed in odin or if its on the sim card small red letts that say some thing to the effect of invalid signature. at first I thought it was me, then I thought no I am following the directions to the letter. then I thought corrupt software. but that doesn't work either. not every single one can be bag. so all that leaves is Kitcat has my phone locked up tighter then a drum. So what is the fool proof way to be able to put a new rom on this. and please use little word I am phone inapt.

I hope some one can help with easy to understand using small words how to do what I want to do. and if some one knows of a decent rom that looks like swamp things it lives in the swamp, That,s the look I am going for. I am heading out in a few months or a year longest, to Louisianan to gator hunting and maybe some bore hunting

Sincerely

Aristoi

Do some research first before stating things you know nothing about. Towelroot doesn't unlock anything.

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

You're also right, you do own the phone, but nothing in the gpl that Verizon has agreed to involves unlocking your bootloader. Verizon locking their bootloader doesn't violate any law or regulation, and a lawsuit wouldn't even materialize. A lawsuit won't happen.

Again, look this stuff up before spewing things out you know nothing about. People here have tried to help you, and I'm sorry if one person made you angry. It doesn't mean everyone here is unhelpful and doesn't know anything.
