It's working now. Flashed the ROM, phone sat at the boot logo for 20 minutes, then the cm boot animation came on and booted from there. This is the 3rd AHD I've owned but the 1st to have this very strange behavior.

My terminal works badly.

Can I use the format option in flashtools?

If I have backups of nvram and after restore this, maybe the format option cause good results when I flash a new rom in a formated memories.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
I think you should reset your OS to fabric settings first and see what is going on. If still have problems then try to format witch I don't recommend at all. Orr try to flash again your firmware. Format could brick your phone.

[Lenovo P780] bundysoat:
Thanks, buy I try all options, formats, resets, etc. The problems continues always.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
This could be a hardware problem. Try to format, and if the problem continues go to some service store.

Sent from my Lenovo P780 using LiFe v.07 and TWRP 2.6.3.0.
[Lenovo P780] bundysoat:
I tried this option.

If anybody need to use this function, you can used the option "format whole flash", this option format Bootloader too, but any ROM flash again this file, not cause a problem.

In my case, the freeze problems not solved after format the terminal....but i think that the real problem because i suffer the freeze problems maybe cause by a defectuous RAM.

The flash tools have a mem test, I will testing in near future.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bo8:
I disabled them as an effort to minimize wakelocks (similar to what is listed in this post)

It's definitely helped with getting better battery life but I prefer to have my email sync and LinkedIn sync back. They're all enabled but just don't sync unless I manually do it.

Can anyone advise? Screen caps of current enabled/disabled Google Services Framework attached

Edit: I've tried turning Sync off and turning back on, logging out and logging back in to the account, turning sync off and back on via the menu in Data Usage screen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bo8:
Sorry, those screenshots are slightly incorrect. I did in fact re-enable the *checkin receivers and have rebooted the phone but still no "real time" syncing happening with my Gmail app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bo8:
Finally revisited this as my phone is still unable to sync notifications in "real time" at all.

I'm finding that checking all the "checkin" services/receivers under Google Services Framework via ROM Toolbox does not actually keep them checked (confirmed via refresh).

Any idea what is going on and how I can fix it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ozziede:
Hi there,

Is anyone using Windows Media Player to play music on their SD card ?

At first glance Windows Media Player seems great being able to sync with your playlists and have Album covers displayed on the player similar to an ipod. A2DP works and you can control music with AVRCP ..but.. It seems to be the most unreliable piece of software out there. From personal experience syncing seems to hang after 4-5 songs unless you tap the device screen. The song library on the SD card suddely disappears and you have to delete the MSMETDATA directory and the WMDRM directory on the card to be able to get WM player to find the files and add it back to the library.

So what other Players are people using instead?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
Hmm, this may not be helpful to you, but I use WMP with no problems, BUT, I manually transfer my music to my SD card. I know there are other players out there that most people here like better than WMP, but for my purposes and what I do (listen to music on my SD card but no synching ever required, and also stream music/video from my home pc to my Tytn) WMP works more than fine for me. Even though the other players are hands-down more rich in features, I'd rather not use up precious storage space when WMP works great for me.

Sorry if that doesn't help, I know your question seemed to be more geared toward synching music. If you're synching DRM'ed music files, good luck, sometimes nothing can be more of a pain in the a**! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
By the way, I'm assuming you're talking about version 10 of WMP as far as what you have on your desktop? Microsoft just announced today that WMP 11 is out of beta and is full release version now. It specifically talks about addressing issues with synching to Pocket PC in the description of the updates that have happened since it's first beta. Give it a shot.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] darkjedi:
Everyone complains about WMP on PPC or SP; but I love it. It does everything I need, sure it uses a lot of ram, but if I'm just listening to music, do I need it to do anything thing else?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
All my music is mp4a. WMP won't stream mp4a out an A2DP connection.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] darkjedi:
I refuse to buy music from iTunes, so I don't have that problem ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
Yeah, but mine's got album art that gets displayed by CorePlayer :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ozziede:
Does CorePlayer support AVRCP?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] g00nerz:
I use PocketPlayer to listen to music from the SD card without problem, although the interface can be a little 'laggy'. It plays gapless .ogg vorbis files so that is a major boon. I've tried PocketMusic which claims to have gapless but doesn't work correctly. WM10 is just too much of a pain in the ass when trying to load music, and has no EQ etc.

I do use WM10 for watching movies though (until Coreplayer gets divx/xvid support for the TyTN that is!). I have been playing mp4 films with some degree of success, however if I pause the film at any time the Audio disappears. I need to restart WM10 to get it working again. Very annoying!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Churchill:
My T-Mobile VARIO II together with Windows Media 11 and HP Bluetooth Stereo Headset (well I know there are better ones)

A Golden combination.

Stereo music easy sync and the best the Album art is also included when you sync via the Windows Media. Also I am using the Windows Media today plugin which was published somewhere here in the Hermes forum (it comes from the iMATE ROM) Perfect!!!!!!!!

The Windows Media Player eats up a lot of memory but I do not complain, even with other things running I seldom see my device having less than 17 MB of program memory :).

A2DP and AVRCP work a treat without any tweaks.

For me Microsoft Rules!

And in regards to Apple, well I find it ancient that you have to convert files to different format if you want to use the songs on more devices. I mean guys if I rip my CD into iTunes then this is it only the iPOD can use it.

Anyhow when Zune is there then I am afraid Apple can kiss their arses goodbuy in regards to jhaving the majority of the market in hands.

P.S. BTW I also use my QTEK 8500 in the same setting and that is even more sweet then VARIO II because you can see everything without opening the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
Sleuth,

WMP displays album art for all of my mp3's and wma's as well.

Churchill,

As much as I'd love to agree with you and see the Ipod get taken down by the Zune, I think it will be a cold day down south before that ever happens. Tech analysts the world around are predicting the Zune to be the biggest failure of Microsoft's ventures, ever. I hope I'm wrong, but as much as I hate the proprietary nature of Apple's music platform, the sheer style of the Ipod, IMHO, cannot be beat. And the new full touchscreen Ipod that is coming out will just re-solidify that.

Anyway, sorry to hijack... this thread is about Windows Media Player :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Churchill:
stpete111!

I totally agree with you about the styling of the ipods, but as they say "looks might be deceiving" I mean Of course looks are important but if because of it I have to have less functionality or incovenience, man I would walk around with a brick around my neck
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
I agree totally. I'll just bet though that very few of the people that the Ipod has reeled in since 2001 will be pulled away from it by the Zune.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
You should have had another choice for "don't use PPC for media" or something to that effect... I still say GET AN IPOD!!!! ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] darkjedi:
I really think I'm the only one who absolutely hates everything that is Apple...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] g00nerz:
I owned an ipod briefly and was so disappointed with the sound quality I took it back to the shop for a refund. I did some research and settled on iRiver in the end. Far better sound quality and styling than the ipod IMO.

I also personally don't think Zune will be a failure... People said xbox would be a failure, and to some degree it was (I read in the press they lost millions on it) but as that's just pocket change to Micro$oft they just come back again with something bigger and better, e.g. the xbox 360. And boy what a device that is. If the Zune loses money they'll just go back to the drawing board and make it better until it becomes a success. That's the great thing about having a bottomless pit of money.

I actually think the Zune sounds like a great device so far anyway - and with the Wifi option to share music with other people, how can they go wrong? Assuming they don't DRM sharing music files somehow. If they do some clever bugger will just create some custom firmware for it anyway... guess we'll have to wait and see!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
You're probably right!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
Until iTunes runs on PPC (which I don't see happening anytime soon), there is no way I'd give up my iPod -- it simply sounds better and it's easier to use... imagine that!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
Darkjedi - you are NOT the only one who hates everything that is Apple. I'm not saying that I hate everything Apple... I used to, then I saw the 24" Intel Core Duo Imac in CompUSA and almost sh** myself. :) Wow, what a friggin piece of equipment. And don't even get me going on their G5's and rumored Octocore sets coming out. BUT, I know a good number of people that DO hate everything Apple. Anyway, I just hate DRM and proprietary platforms, and while Microsoft bows to the RIAA with DRM just like Apple does, Apple's platform is much more restrictive, in my opinion.

Goesto11 - I definitely cannot argue with the fact that Itunes is about the easiest and best organized app to use for digital media, and, I had an Ipod Shuffle for a few months and I couldn't believe the sound quality coming from that thing. They definitely have that down.

goonerz - just so you know, there will be DRM imposed on the Wi-Fi sharing with the Zune. Once you share a song with someone, they can only listen to it 3 times, then they are given the choice to purchase the track (or more like the DRM key) or it gets deleted. I agree with you totally though, it likely won't be long until that's cracked. I of course would never condone stealing in any shape or form ;) And trust me, if the Zune isn't a failure, I'll be the first to gladly eat my words. I truly hope that it is not.

Sorry, I know this thread has taken a left turn (or a hijack if you will) but I don't care... I love talking about this stuff :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] darkjedi:
I love the look, design, and feel of the Zune, right down to the UI, but DRM is going to CRIPPLE the Zune, and people aren't going to like it at all.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] niketkumar:
I find my WMP to work perfect as upto my requirements .
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwwes:
wmp is all i need- don't need the bugs though.

I don't like apple. I often refer to palm as the apple of pdas. don't like palm either.

wmp10 is very nice, my only problems with it on my 8525 are:

aadp audio quality sucks out of the box. with bitpool=53 it is better, but not as good as my harrier with widcomm and broadcomm aadp cab.

shuffling my 600+ tracks brings prog ram down to 6M periodically. hasn't caused any issues I know of, but that's alarmingly low.

library on my memory card goes away pretty often, recreating the library is a pain, and picks up a bunch of program's wav files from my device. I delete the library file and wdrm folder from app data after it's done finding stuff.

very few of the buttons on hermes are programmable.

bugs like this are why apple gains market share. they have a bulletproof user interface. more pre_release testing. folks on this forum find and solve microsoft and htc problems. apple does this themselves. I have to give them some credit for that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] darkjedi:
No for some reason, WMP can no longer import songs into the Library from my SD card. Any possible reason for that? I've even reformatted, and the same thing; so I'm thinking it could be on the card itself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wwwes:
try deleting files under \application data\microsoft\media player as well if you haven't tried that already. I do this to get rid of the random wav files that it picks up from my device when I update library since all of my music is on the sd.

I have also noticed, as have others posting here, that if I seat the sd too deep when putting it in, the hermes doesn't recognise it at all. have to push it just far enough to latch. my suspiscion about this is that they have a switch deep in the socket that they use to detect that sdcard is being removed, so they can shut it down before it is pulled out to prevent corruption. if you push too far putting it in, it triggers and shuts down your newly installed sdcard.

Hi there,

As we all know there is an issue with moving files from internal to external storage due to implements from kitkat.

I was just wondering if there is a was a solution to this without rooting?

I am unrooted and was hoping there was a fix for it.

Thanks in advance.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gus Hayabusa:
ext sd

I have been looking into this, the past 3 days and from my research I could say the answer is... no.

Everything I found on the net requires root access.

On my previous phone, a Note 3, I faced the same issue and when I formated the ext sd from within the phone, the problem mysteriously went away and I had -full- access to the ext sd.

Tried it on the M8 but no luck.

Why dont you also give it a try (after backing up your ext sd ofcourse) and tell me if you had any result.

My M8 is international version by the way. No carriers.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oshinqwe:

With the Update to 4.4.3 HTC included a file explorer to give a solution for this kitkat security feature. I already flashed the OTA to 4.4.3 aka firmware 2.22.401.4 and in fact moving files from the internal storage to sd card works with the file explorer delivered by HTC.

Hope this answer helps!?

[General Questions and Answers] Ashutosh Jain:
how can i flash kitkat rom on galaxy grand??
[General Questions and Answers] andreiav:
There is currently no official release of KitKat for your device. I don't know if Samsung will ever release KitKat for your device.

What you can do is try to find a custom KitKat rom for your device. I haven't searched for any, but if there is a custom rom for your device, it's sure to be on XDA.

Flashing a custom ROM means you will lose all Samsung software and S apps like S Planner, S voice..etc. But you might end up loving your phone even more and the stock android experience. Plus, there are a lot of new features that you can find in custom roms.

To get started with custom roms, you will definitely need a custom recovery installed. You should start reading on what this means. A lot of reading. You can easily find information on google, videos on youtube, and lots of sites with instructions.

Flashing roms can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. Make sure you read very carefully and flash roms, kernels and recoveries that have been made specifically for your device. Anything else will probably brick your phone.

And always search on XDA, or post a question if you are not sure.

Hey everyone:

at first, sorry for my bad english :D

I currently can not login to Google on my Nexus 5.

I had these problems before with Paranoid Android, thats why i came back to stock.

This was a few weeks ago, im on 4.4.4 now, rooted and a few tweeks like xposed installer and gravity box installed.

Before yesterday i had no problems, but than i installed an app called freedom.

I couldn't believe that it works, so i tested it.

A few hours later i recognized that i can not login to google, so google now, the play store, etc doesnt work.

I tried to log out and login again, but it doesnt work.

I deinstalled freedom, but that doesnt changed something.

Does anyone else got some same problems like this with freedom?

Does someone know what i can do if i dont want to hard reset my Nexus ? :)
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] Nishantjoshi:
Hi-

I have rooted my device. Bootloader unlocked. Now my doubt is:

1. If I will still receive Kitkat update from Sony?

2. Can I be able to just download the same and install?

3. If yes, what will happen to my root?

Regards
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] The_Overthinker:
Yes you will get a notification that an update is available, but your phone wont be able to install it (since bootloader is unlocked).

Thus, to apply the update, you need flash the stock firmware via flashtool.

And yeah, you'll lose root access once you flash the firmware. Just flash su binary via recovery to get it back.

Hope this helps.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] Nishantjoshi:
Thanks [MENTION=5464629]sohailferdous[/MENTION].... but I have few doubts - 1. I know the process of flashing a firmware via flashtool....but for that your need the ftf file...so is there a way to get the stock ftf file? Because .253 ftf india is still not available. The one present is AUS version

2. When you say SU binary I take it that its the SU zip file which is present in Doomlord's root update.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] The_Overthinker:
1. The AUS version should work on all phones.

2. Yup, the SU zip file on Doomlord's root update will work fine.

Hi,

I have a T2 Ultra Dual (Chinese Version ... XM50h) flashed it with the Australian firmware. Works great and shows now as D5322. Today I read about Kitkat Update - I'd connected the phone to the PC Companion - Companion started to download the Kitkat Update but when it shutdown the phone to install the upgrade I got the message that there is a modified software on the phone - update can not continue (Error2003)

Is it possible to get a flashable file out of PC Companion?
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] so_cool_rohan:
No, u cant use pc companion until n unless you relock your bootloader, try flashtool as an alternative.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] klarmann:
Strange - bootloader should be locked - how can I check if it is locked/unlocked?

When I try to flash 4.4.2 unbranded firmware from Ashwin - flashtool stops after the bootcode and nothing happens. Flash failed (so says the phone after rebooting. PC Companion repair does not work.

Reflash of the Australian 4.3 works - phone is up and running after 4.3 flash ...

Strange ...
