Have had my S620 for a couple of weeks now and no issues with the protector other than it is just annoying. I will probably remove it as soon as I find a descent (or any) desktop cradle on the market.

[HTC Excalibur] ID64:
I took my off right away :) Since I am using it with my custom made car holder :)
[HTC Excalibur] Jaw3000:
Has anyone with the Dsh noticed the thin plastic piece that connects the protector to the phone body beginning to split? I noticed mine splitting on both sides, which leads me to believe it will split right through and brake off anytime now. And like I said, I've only opened and closed it about 3-4 times.

ID64: How did you take yours off? Did you just cut it?
[HTC Excalibur] .PoNeH:
The bottom of mine seems to be split, but I think it comes like to make it a little looser and easier to open. I wouldn't be too worried about it. If anything, they'll send you a new one since it should be covered in the warranty.
[HTC Excalibur] Jaw3000:
Really? Hmm, maybe the split was intentionally done by HTC and my Dash is not breaking after all. Has anyone else noticed if your Dash/Excalibur has this split?
[HTC Excalibur] ID64:
Brute physical force :) Just pull out
[HTC Excalibur] themandlh:
heh

I new that I would hate it; so Pulled it of as soon as I got it out of the box.

Once its off, it looks like it was never supposed to have anything there in the first place.

Any one know what that other litle port is for?
[HTC Excalibur] DanITman:
Does anyone know what that small port is right next to the USB jack?
[HTC Excalibur] Jaw3000:
I have no clue. I was wondering this too. Maybe a connector for a wrist strap or something?

Guys, i have installed the LG PC Sync software on my work PC. Its a Win 7 64bit image on a Dell 6430 laptop. When i connect the phone by USB, the computer lets me see the phone to copy/transfer files, but PC Sync does not connect to the phone. I tried to manually search etc to no avail. I see in the tutorial that when you connect the phone, it should see the "PC Connection" as an option on the phone. I don not get this, just 3 modes: MTP, PPP and Charge. I tried all modes. I un-installed the software, re-installed the software, tried installing only drivers etc. Still no success...

[General Questions and Answers] Jachin99!@:
I am trying to consolidate all of my calling and texting into one app with one phone number that i can use on any device, I.E. android, windows, and hopefully, IOS in case i need it in the future using only an internet connection. Here is what i have right now, how i use it.

I have a Google voice account with one phone number. The problem with this is that i can't receive or make phone calls, i can only send and receive texts, and limited texts at that. Just to try to increase my text limits, I signed up for a Google business account, but really that just gives me a bunch of extra crap i don't need, I.E. a webpage.

When i first signed up for this account i had Verizon as my carrier so i linked my current number to the Verizon account. I have since canceled my service with Verizon, but i don't want to delete my current Google number because i am being told, once i click on delete, that i have to wait 90 days to get a new one. I would also prefer to not get a new number, but as long as i can gain full functionality for voice and text, i really don't care.

To make phone calls I use Skype. This works good enough for outgoing calls, but it shows my Skype number on caller ID, and i can't receive calls with it. So these two apps combined allow me to send limited texts, receive texts, make calls, but i don't have a way of receiving calls.

I am already paying more than enough for my twelve gigs of data through sprint every month, and I refuse to pay fifty bucks a month to only be able to receive phone calls, but paying a little more every month for an outside service wouldn't bother me too much. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

i dont know about calling, but google hangouts consoilidates all your sms in one place.
[General Questions and Answers] Jachin99!@:
I got the hangouts desktop extension for chrome, and I can make calls from it, and I'm pretty sure i can send texts, but i still cant receive calls. One problem I'm having with it is that when i try to just type in a contact's name, it brings up a bunch of people i don't know instead of at least bringing up my google contacts first. Does anyone know how to fix this. I can't remember where, but I've also read that google is on a path to eliminate google voice, and consolidate everything to hangouts, so this might be future proof as a stable phone solution for at least the life of a cell phone contract.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DBardo:
Hello! So, after I read a lot of tutorials on the internet I have manageed to unlock my HTC Cha Cha!

I was follwoing this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525404 , when suddnely I ran across a problem.

First, although my device was not listed when I ran the "adb devices" command, It seems that I have managed to install CWM. It was a message in the "List of adb devices:" (or something like that) and then some blank space. But, I ran fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and apparently it did the trick.

When I slected recovery, and then I click on "install zip from SD Card", nothing shows up! Absolutely nothing. The same thing happens if I chose any other option listed there. Can somebody help me solve this problem? I really want to have my phone rooted so I can free up some more space, because it has low internal memory. I've looked up my problem on Google but couldn't find anything. You guys are my last chance. Thank you in advance!

I have maanged to solve it. All I had to do was to use the enter key on the keyboard to select the highlighted option. Done.!

I just got my link to Minuum for android wear. The only problem is that I'm at work and of course I don't have my cradle with me, so I'll have to wait till tonight. I tried using adb thru bluetooth but I'm not sure exactly how it works, so I guess it'll have to wait till tonight. So excited...

[LG G Watch] paranoid2007:
As far as I know, it's completely useless at the moment as Android Wear doesn't allow for keyboard input.
[LG G Watch] GiantAxe:
for now yes, but in the future. answer a sms from your watch without having to chose from a preset. or send that tiny whatsapp message from your watch. theres possibilities with it.
[LG G Watch] tshoulihane:
I tried it, got the app to run, but never managed to get the keyboard to pop up.

The only issue is that few/no apps support keyboard entry. I was hoping to test SWApp - that insists on keyboard entry at configuration (but no joy with that either).

Edit: fixed

It was a conflict with Wear Mini Launcher - some GPU resource issue maybe. On your phone, open wear mini launcher, set 'enable drawer' to off. Obviously this means you can't have the launcher active, but at least it is possible to test, without having to un-install.
[LG G Watch] Dovigoldberger:

Where is the Problem?
[General Questions and Answers] ajayudayagiri:
I have seen too many tutorials to root devices with carrier T-mobile, Verizon, AT&T etc.

My question is, Can we root devices restricted to a network carrier? Can we install custom recovery and install custom ROM's on them?
[General Questions and Answers] paulsonmcreilly:
Yes, you can do all of this.

However, the carrier may have rules against this and may void any warranty if they find out.
[General Questions and Answers] Planterz:
That depends on the phone and the carrier in question. Verizon and AT&T typically do their most to prevent users from hacking their phones. T-Mobile is the most lax. Verizon is definitely the most restrictive. AT&T might get Gestapo on their own phones, but you can always bring your own phone. Verizon however only allows devices they themselves sell. And the devices they sell are typically locked down as hard as they can. You need to understand that when it comes to carriers, the same phone is not necessarily the same phone. For example, a Galaxy S5 from T-Mobile is vastly different from the Galaxy S5 from Verizon, despite being the "same" phone.

Nothing is impossible, in theory, as Towelroot proved, but that doesn't mean that everything is possible, either. It depends on the provider and the phone.

this is a shame on how sony made a very low quality device and blame the customers
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sopdogg:
Maybe not popular opinion but I wouldn't consider it low quality. Why should Sony replace the ASF? It is just Sony's stock screen protector. They have been placing the ASF on their phones since the X10. If you have an issue with it then remove it and place something else on it. I don't think Sony was blaming anyone. It looks like they are being blamed to me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cupidstunt:
I would.recommend using a liquid screen protector(I used crystalusion) as soon as anyone gets this phone. I did and have zero scratches on my screen.

You can apply it over Sonys ASF and it works a treat without voiding your warranty.

Screen feels a lot smoother after its been applied too just like glass.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] maxld:
Just out of curiosity, what if this liquid protector gets scratched? You can't peel it off like you could with a normal protector, so what are your options in that situation?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cupidstunt:
YouTube crystalusion and you'll see that it's an exremely thin layer. It's nanotechnology and wears off over the space of a year. It makes the plastic ASF a lot more scratch resistant.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grahamgo:
I have been reading the Moto G Threads since shortly after I bought the phone and have even made the odd input. But today I am wondering just how many users actually root and custom rom? I imagine that in reality it is a tiny percentage of Moto G users. Yet I notice in these threads that while it seems to be a source of pride to some, it also brings many problems and quirks because a significant number of threads talk about custom ROM problems. Myself, I do use Custom Roms but generally start using only after the manufacturer has stopped supporting/upgrading. I have done this on several Nexus devices and a couple of Samsung's. For me a custom Rom is only used as a tool to keep firmware up to date for a longer period. With regards to the Moto G, the manufacture is still upgrading. So why bother romming? I decided to Root only and use Xposed tools and Greenify, to tweak things and Titanium to backup. Maybe, when Moto G stops the support, and, providing I still have the phone I might change the ROM. But if it ain't broke why waste time on it, its just a phone after all. But quite a nice one, although admittedly I'm drooling at the $299 OnePlus one right now!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Degradable:
My Nexus 5 has been experiencing this issue for months now. It happens in all apps (especially Facebook, WhatsApp and Jeffit). I press the back button and it freezes, meaning I can't press anything other than the home button to exit the app. This will then repeat itself time and time again until I eventually turn the phone on and off. This will solve the issue for a few minutes until it starts again.

I tried factory reset and it was fine for a short while and then began again. I've tried to see what app it could be, but from Google searches it seems like other people have it too and no one has a solution? There didn't seem to be a thread on it on XDA so wanted to see if anyone has managed to fix it?

I haven't got anything custom on my phone and it isn't rooted. It's so frustrating and it's ruining and otherwise flawless experience with the Nexus 5. I'm pretty sure it started after the Kit Kat update.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
Hello,

My first gen Kindle Fire has been setup in the OtterX format and has been running well on the CM STG7 ROM. I decided to update to the latest version last week and since then, my OtterX has not recognized the SDCard.

TWRP does see the SDcard and will view it's contents when browsing the file manager, but it won't mount the SDcard to my computer desktop. Nothing happens when I click the mount button.

When the OtterX boots, the System > Storage sees the SDcard and contents, but when I try to browse to it with a file manager, it says the path is invalid.

ADB shell sees the /sdcard/ directory and I can browse it from the shell as well.

I've tried formatting the entire device, including wiping the internal storage and formatting data (where you have to type in "yes") and nothing has resolved this issue.

Any idea what's going on?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
I'll try reformatting again.

My partitions became corrupted a couple years ago and I had to rebuild them manually, following a tutorial. OtterX partitions in the bootloader doesn't work on my device. I'm guessing it's because the partitions are spot-on with the sizing.

Do you know of a way to rebuild the partitions manually so they match the stock specs - maybe that way the bootloader partitioning would work?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
For some reason after trying a different ROM (can't remember which one), I lost my SD card again and I can't seem to get it back. I even reverted the bootloader to FFF and did the "OEM Format", then followed the steps back to OtterX.

Attached is my partition table. I don't see a 'media' table, which is the SDcard, correct?

Any idea what else to do?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ixthusdan:
Otterx utilizes space that was already there, but reserved for the system. In order to better use available space for user data, the storage is placed elsewhere on the tree. The sd card should be located under storage on the otterx tree.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
The strange thing is TWRP sees and accesses the SD card just fine.

It will let you flash back to the stock ROM. If you are on the 4.4 bootloader though you can only go back so far. You can't go back to 4.2. I'm not sure about 4.3.
