Trying to delete this post. Don't know how to... SMH

I'm sorry, everyone. I didn't realize you couldn't delete posts. I forgot what this post was about.
[General Topics] knickerblogger:
I am trying to compare these two phones. In my situation they cost the same amount. Both in new condition. I need help deciding which to use on T-mobile until the Nexus 6 is released or a phone is released that meets my requirements for under $350.

Here is brief comparison between the options.

Display:

LG 4.7 IPS clearly beats the HTC's 4.3 AMOLED

Network Connectivity:

LG only 1900 and 2100 bands resulting in half speed data performance compared to HTC which get up to 18MBPS

Exterior Aesthetics:

HTC wins because it is slightly narrower and is built out of aluminum.

Camera:

HTC is much better even though they are both 8MP

Extras:

LG has NFC and roughly 2X better front facing camera.

Battery:

HTC has horrible battery life and lasts roughly 12hrs of light use, the LG lasts 16hrs of light use. However the LG should last 50% longer in moderate/heavy use.

Performance:

LG has an SD slot and roughly 2X better performance.

It looks like LG wins. But is the loss of connectivity and rear camera performance worth it, those are the two most important factors for most people since people pay a premium for coverage and the camera is the most important factor. Even GSMARENA gives the LG only a slight edge which is removed by the lower data speeds. http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_optimus_g_e970-5062.php and http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_s-4574.php

Thank you in advance for your help, I have 24hrs to decide.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedgehog90:
Hi.

A few weeks ago I bought a 128GB usb 3.0 stick with fairly decent read/write speeds. I put ~60GB of music and I regularly use it while driving to listen to music through the car stereo.

Unfortunately, every few minutes (sometimes twice a minute, sometimes not for 10 minutes or so) it'll have a moment where it pauses for about half a second and starts again. It seems as if it's buffering.

I use Poweramp on my phone and an auxiliary cable. I've also tried playing music through the phone speakers while it was read/writing another task to the USB stick, and I noticed the same effect, but more like every 2 seconds.

Any ideas how I can fix this? It's very annoying.

Is there maybe a way I could make it download the ~6-8MB MP3 from the USB stick to the phone's memory before the song starts playing, so there wasn't this latency/stop-start effect when playing content?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clarkiieh:
Buy a more well built otg cable or a micro SD card reader...

I have one from eBay (70 pence) and it does what you explain..

Although 1080p films and videos play a charm... The music loses quality while being sent.. Don't know why but a mehova micro SD card reader works good
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Use this script at your own risk. Myself and XDA-Developers cannot be held liable for any damages that may arise from it's use.​

This is a utility script written to be ran from the device via terminal emulator. There are too many partitions on the L90 to back them all up so I've only given options for the most important ones. Those being aboot, abootb, boot, cache, laf, recovery, system, userdata. Each partition can be backed up individually one at a time or all the partitions I listed above can be backed up in a single script option.

Using the script is self explanatory.

I've found the easiest way to execute this script is by placing a "Term Shortcut" on a home screen that points to this file. Terminal Emulator must be installed to do this. When I press on the shortcut "Terminal Emulator" opens automatically and executes the script.

I should note that some of you may have issues running this script. If it cannot be ran off your external sdcard then copy it to /data/local/tmp and chmod it 0777. I'm using the XPosed Framework and several modules that allow me to write to my external sdcard. Some of you may be able to run the script from the external sdcard but won't be able to save the backups there. Within the script, near the top, there are instructions for changing the backup path from the external sdcard to the internal sdcard.

Please be warned that backup operations on the system and userdata partitions will take several minutes. The system partition will take a little over 7 minutes @ 2 GB. The userdata partition @ 4 GB, using the time of the system partition, will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Anyone is free to edit/modify this script as they see fit just please give me credit as the original script creator. Also, if changes are made, please share them. I'm willing to host downloads for them also.

If your intentions are to use this script to install one of the bootloader patches ( aboot, abootb ) YOU are responsible for ensuring that you have the correct patch image and that it is stored in the root of either your internal or external sdcard.

Download - Aboot/abootb Patches

I take no credit for these patches. They are the works of the guys over at the Russian Forum 4PDA. I'm only hosting the patches.

[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
I guess it will be sufficient if I backup only the system partition, right? Nevertheless, I will start to do so when I am home from work.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
I'd make backups of aboot, boot, laf, & system at the very least.
[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
Hmm, I am not able to run the file via terminal emulator. error message: /system/bin/sh: l90.sh not found. I have already moved the file to /data/local/tmp and grant 0777 permission and then went to the corresponding directory. Neither "bash l90.sh" nor just "l90.sh" seem to work. Any suggestion?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Type: cd /data/local/tmp

Type: ./l90.sh
[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
[176]: syntax error: ' { ' unmatched :confused:

Missing ' { ' at the end of the script?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Not sure how that can be. Script works great on my D415.

If you just want to back up system the do the following from Terminal Emulator

su
mkdir -p /storage/external_SD/L90/backup/
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system of=/storage/external_SD/L90/backup/system.img

Seems to work, I have been able to backup the system.img (about 655mb).

Thanks for your help :good: :)
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Noticed a typeo in my code above. Fixed. That's a block for block transfer. Should be closer to 2 GB. My system backup is.
[LG Optimus L90] Portgas D. Ace:
Okay, my android had closed the terminal during backup, this seems to have aborted my backup. Making a new one right now.

Successfully finished at about 2GB.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
OK. I found the issue. Apparently the android app I used to start writing and testing this script isn't creating files correctly. Figured this out when I decided I wanted to edit the script on the ol PC and the script wasn't showing on the sdcard on the PC. Anyway, I've uploaded a fixed version. Plus did some code clean up.

So, do I first have to download a patch for my device ( d405n v10b)? Because the link for the "available patches" wont open for me.
[LG Optimus L90] Pjautuvas:
Does the aboot patch work for D405N V10b?
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Yes. Not sure why the link won't open for you. I just opened it thru Tapatalk.

I don't know. I have a D415. I only included the ability to install/flash the aboot/abootb patches as a courtesy. You will need to do a little searching to find out for sure.

Carrier doesn't say sprint.

I tried loaded stock and custom roms. Don't work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] farookh:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] td030981:
Yeah I had a backup but it got deleted. I will try to find one I guess if it is possible to be extracted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] td030981:
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] td030981:
Issue solved........ I had to first wipe everything using twrp recovery (under advance, checked all except sd-card) and I wiped 2 times. The went and did a factory reset 2 times. Then used Odin to reload the stock software and when it first booted up the sprint spark boot image wasn't there. So I let it go through and it failed the first attempt to activate. I tried a second time and it passed. After it passed then it rebooted and there it was. SPARK boot splash. I got excited lol. So now all is back. I can update profile and roaming list again now as well. Which those 2 were my main concern since the phone was showing me to be on Samsung network. That really bugged me. So that's the fix. You have to wipe everything, which I thought I did before, than install fresh stock rom from Sam mobile.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kittylee:
I soft bricked my phone somehow, no clue. My phone was fine, battery died with no downloads, or anything running, went to turn it back on after plugging it in to find it bricked at the Samsung start screen.

I've tried restoring it with Kies, which won't recognize my phone is plugged in(??).

I've tried restoring it in Odin with Kies uninstalled, it keeps failing though.

Here's a copy of Odin's log:

My Note 2 has never been rooted, and I'm completely at a loss as to what has happened. I've tried different USB cords and slots around my laptop, but don't have another computer I can try it on currently.

Also, After trying Kies and Odin I noticed in the top left corner of my Note's screen, KNOX WARRANTY VOID changed from 0 to 1, not sure what that means either!

Any suggestions? I'm lost without my phone!

Edit:

After ODIN fails, my phone says unsupported version also in the top left corner. I've tried 3 different stock ROMs.

Edit 2:

And now I can't get into the boot menu, just the download menu.

Kies also won't recognize that my phone is connected now.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
Find latest firmware for your region and device and use Odin to flash it.

Regarding the file in your Odin log seems to be old firmware.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kittylee:
I've tried at least 4 different firmware versions, and am having no luck with any of them. Should I be looking for one that includes the OTA update from back in the winter?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jotapoggi:
FIX

Kittylee, take a look at this video " youtube . com / watch?v=GbAJH_mL6N4" I've downloaded the rar version of the clockwork recovery for my GT-N7100 from this site "galaxynote2root . com / cwm-recovery /" you have to choose the "RAR" version since it's thhe one odin uses.

OBS.: Remove the spaces from the links

It worked for me. try it.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Costinutz32:
So this is my story. I compiled aosp and flashed my new rom, clicked reboot and boom. Nothing works.

When I use a charger / usb red light notification flashes. Also, sony pc companion sais (null) connected.

It won't turn on in fastboot, tried but I have no blue light notification.

The phone vibrates when I press power. Could this be because of a bad kernel ?

I will let my phone charge for a while, to eliminate potential causes.

Thanks :).

I let it charge over night, but it's not responding anymore. No vibration, no led no nothing.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Costinutz32:
How can I follow those instructions if the phone won't charge ? Should I give it another day plugged in the wall charger ?

The main thing I want to do is go in fastboot and flash another kernel, as I know it is the main problem.

But the phone doesn't charge. No response whatsoever. I had it charging for 8 hours or so, still nothing.

If anyone has a magnetic charger, can you tell me which one is the ground and which one is the + ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
It doesn't matter if you're charging via magnetic cable or normal USB cable.

As described in the thread that I linked you to, a red LED means that the phone is charging in 'low battery level charge mode'. Read post 2 of the thread, with the header "Now after the phone has reset and you have the red led". You just need to charge your phone longer.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Costinutz32:

It displays Voice Tag application dialog saying "Please speak after beep" on background and "There is no trained voice tag" message box in foreground (because I have no voicetags).

Then for several seconds sound really goes to blue headset (!), but after that dialog disappears, and sound comes to its usual way.

Maybe it's because of AKU 3.2 ROM?

Hey there!

I'm pretty new to the Android platform. I've been on iOS for many years.

I already flashed a custom firmware on a Moto G, which worked fine. (SlimKat)

I thought about doing the same thing with my HTC One X.

GSM version (Model: PJ83100)

Current device state:

*** TAMPERED ***

*** UNLOCKED ***

EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.14.0000

RADIO-0.23a.32.01.29

OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815

eMMC-boot

Nov 26 2012, 18:37:14:-1

Unlike the Moto G Bootloader, I'm unable to erase any partition but the cache. Example:

./fastboot erase system

erasing 'system'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

I am not able to boot into the OS or the recovery partition anymore, so they have probably been wiped. When I reboot the device, it's either a boot loop or it simply shuts down.

I already tried to flash CWM and TWRP. Each of those were successful, at least according to the terminal... Unfortunately, same thing happens when the phone reboots (unable to access recovery).

I also tried to flash SlimKat with the "./fastboot flash zip file_name.zip" command, even if it isn't supposed to work (I believe). It wasn't successful.

In despair, I flashed the boot image from the ROM but still without result.

I did all of those in the FastBoot window and on the RUU mode (./fastboot oem rebootRUU).

Both stuck at the same points.

If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be really appreciated.

All the posts related to the issue did not help me in any ways.

Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You need to work out why your recovery flashes aren't working, you need a custom recovery to install custom ROMs on this device, flashing them through fastboot will not work. Can you explain in detail and step by step the method you use to flash the recovery please?
