Now I know what you're gonna say - hard reset, but just bear with me.

I set a password to stop the kids messing with the PDA.

Then I wanted to use my contract Orange SIM card temporarily instead of my PAYG SIM - it's cheaper to surf that way.

Sooo, I turned off the M2000 and inserted my contract SIM. When I turned it back on, I was prompted for the password, but I now do not have the keyboard icon bottom right of screen and I only ever used my touch screen to enter it.

I can enter via the keyboard, but I keep getting it wrong as I'm not really sure which keys come up as default CAPS lock on and how to use the Lock Fn key - ie: does it stay on for 1 key press then default back or do you have to turn it off again....similarly with Shift, CAPS, etc.

I've backed up my important data via ActiveSync, which prompts me for a password. So I've browsed the device and copied across the stuff I need...apart from program installs and the like.

So, this is how my password is structured: Abcd1efghij

To explain: a capital first letter, 3 lower case letters, a number, 6 lower case letters.

Any thoughts?

You poor thing! Try connecting with ActiveSync, and using the remote control program attached (rCE) to use your PC to enter the password.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steliosxvi:
Hi,

I'm having a problem trying to flash roms. I have both ViperOne and Android Revolution pushed onto /sdcard.

They show up when I press install on TWRP but after I slide to install, it fails. It shows the following:

Updating partition details...

E: Unable to open zip file.

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/viperone.zip'

Updating partition details...

This is on TWRP v2.7.1.1

Any ideas on what do would be appreciated.

Please note I can't get into normal android system and its currently stuck on a cyanogenmod bootloop.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
use twrp 2.6.3.3 to flash arhd.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-botloader

then try to flash arhd or viper again

also check your roms MD5 before flashing them

Hello Just wondering if there is anything in the forums regarding the PendoPAD 7" Model: PNDPP428DG7

If need specifics on what I am asking for it is guides on rooting and installing a custom Rom. Due to the stock Rom is crashing
[Verizon LG G3] Mistertac:
I realize our phone is still very very new and the lack of a custom recovery is also holding things back.... But I wanted to see if anyone else would like to have our stock LG Android System UI themed , blacked out, inverted??

I've always been partial to totally blacking everything out on my previous phones.

We have the glorified CWM zip flasher and it appears we should have the Tethered TWRP soon as well so we would have a method to flash these themes.

I'd totally be down to donate to a Dev for putting in long hard hours theming/inverting our stock ROM. Maybe we could get something going here if more are interested?!

FYI the HKTHEMER Xposed Module doesn't work on our phones. Too much LG stuff in the way for it to work.

I would love to see an Android L theme for our phone.
[Verizon LG G3] sentry_mode_activated:
I know it's not really a theme replacement, but it is possible to install the Google Experience Launcher (I think even without root). Coupled with the G3 TweaksBox (needs root and xposed) you can get a bit more customization than you get OOB.

Totally agree! Missing the CM theme engine, there were some awesome L themes there.
[Verizon LG G3] Mistertac:
Oh I know, the G3 TweakBox is an awesome mod for sure and I'm a Nova Launcher guy all the way. But thanks for the suggestions!

I'm talking about theming the LG System itself

And any other System Elements.

For example on the S4 a super talented Dev [MENTION=4055140]reggie cheeks[/MENTION] made flashable zips that would theme pretty much every aspect of Touchwiz.

The other option would be if the HKTHEMER module worked for us and we could use CM10 / 10.2 Themes. Bit as of right now that doesn't seem to work.

I'm not saying we don't have some options available to us. . . and I'm very grateful for what we do have. . just an idea I had that's all.

Wish I could do it myself and share with everyone here but I haven't a clue how to do any of that stuff!

I'm not sure as I don't use that one, although Messaging is listed under the apps it can apply Holo to from within the module so I assume so.

[Moto X Q&A] gangrif:
Yesterday, i finally received my NFC Ring, and i'm tinkering with it. If you're unfamiliar, its a ring, with two NFC tags in it. One for public, one for private. The idea is that you use the private side to unlock your phone, as your phone generally rests in your hand right where the ring is.

Anyway, It comes with its own unlock app, which basically replaces the unlock screen. Which works, but does not have any of the moto-x integrations. For example, if i flick the phone to get the camera to start, a feature a use a TON, instead of just opening the camera, i then have to deal with the NFC ring unlock, then it gets me to the camera. Same goes for "trusted" bluetooth devices circumventing the unlock screen.

So i thought i'd try to use the built in app for this, Motorola Skip. The problem is, even though this app is happily taking up space on my phone, and apparently running in the background, I cannot find any way to interact with it, without buying a skip tag. Sure, theyre not expensive, but i've got no interest in buying one just to enable this app.

Is there any way to trick the motorola skip setup app into action using a generic nfc tag? I've read all over the place that once its activated, you can use any old tag (as long as its compatible). So how do i trigger it without buying a Skip?

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] mandrsn1:
You can use Motorola Skip Tag Creator to make your NFC ring appear as a skip device to the phone.

Hi all, this is my first post or thread, i came here cause i heard from ppl this is best site for asking questions about cell phones, i started reading allot this forum and wow did i enter the other world i really like and wanna participate in.

Srry for little intro and lets get back to topic. So i got my first "normal" android and got trouble with it. I am using Samsung galaxy s5 g900F (european) factory unlocked and T-mobile as carrier with 4.4.2 kitkat. I have a big problem with a data connection that keeps going off every 30sec to 5 min if i use option to search and auttoconnect on LTE/WCDMA/GSM option. I read forum but no1 is mentioning this model as problematic 1 so now i post thread about.

Does any1 know what could be problem and how to solve it. Sometimes my data connection comes back and sometimes it doesnt and i have to switch type of network to get back again online. All other options that don't include LTE auttoconnect work just fine, i tried to get another SIM from carrier but same problem, i tried to get another Phone since i work in hardware firm and still same problem on another device, both were same models.

I still didn't put any ROMs but i really consider doing it maybe l8r on, it is stock version.

Pls be genttle since this is first time i post, maybe i did it on wrong place but i did read rules and everything and i think i did it on right place.

Ty in advance.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnrnrn:
I did have a slightly similar problem years ago - when in roaming my phone could not connect to anything. What helped was a change of simcard for a new model - after that all was good.

Since you did try your SIM on a different phone (same 900F?) I would advise you to try: first on a completely different brand and phone model - if you can.

If this does not solve your problem do shake your service provider a bit - they could have supplied you with two faulty SIM cards in a row - that can happen. Otherwise - maybe there is a stupid limitation in your service plan which is causing this. There is no - to my knowledge - ready answer to the problem you have described.

Best of luck and if you do solve it come back and post - it will be very useful to lots of people for sure :)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Too many variables. You haven't observed enough of a pattern yet or tried enough things to narrow it down a bit. It could just as easily be carrier side issues as a bug in the firmware not negotiating a new connection if the LTE signal is lost.

A number of people were having data disconnect issues and that was addressed in the 4.4.3 /4.4.4 update. So that is one option to consider. And you could open a support ticket with your carrier. That is hit and miss as to results, but sometimes tickets actually resolve issues.

There are also a number of apps that may mitigate or possibly even solve your issue. Have a look at 4G LTE Switch and LTE Discovery.

[Galaxy S 4 General] Swizzy88:
So I put my phone on charge last night and woke up to this. Bare in mind I only sleep 4-5 hours a night so it wasn't on charge THAT long. The phone was off when I picked it up and would turn on, a quick flash of the I9505 screen and then straight off again. There was a minimal scorch mark on my brand new sofa, luckily it's a dark color so it's barely visible. I'm very VERY glad my sofa and or house didn't burn down while I was asleep.

It is currently being investigated by my carrier and Samsung. I used the original battery and charger + cable. I hope they will replace it as it is still under warranty and my second fault with this phone. The previous fault was due to the bad batch of batteries, the expanded battery problem which was also potentially dangerous.

As a warning again to all. Don't leave your phone on charge and out of sight for long periods of time. I was lucky, maybe someone elses sofa and house could have caught fire.

Stay safe
[Galaxy S 4 General] alex_maistoru:
The same happened to me after 8 months with original charger and battery but my warranty was already lost because i've changed the glass of the display. First the battery got a bump after 6 months of use, changed with original one and then this. Suck a bad hardware.My luck was that the charging module and the antena were not so expensive and easy to change by myself.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Puffler:
Well that's a scary picture.Especially since it's a Samsung charger and cable. I assumed it was a random charger.:eek:

May I just ask:

Were you rooted? Any mods?

Did you have a protective cover or case on the phone? What brand was it?

What was the last app you installed?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Swizzy88:
Rooted stock ROM. Official Samsung S4 flip case. Maybe grenify? Definitely not something that would mes with the charging procedure.
[Galaxy S 4 General] POLO_i780:
Oh no, it's with Samsung already, yeah? You better hope they don't find out that it is Rooted, they will milk that part as they will say it was running unofficial software. With Root access they could mention the fact that you have control of the hardware and may have tampered with something in the SW that controls e.g. power management.

[Galaxy S 4 General] roboflekto:
Under the pillow, during charge???!!!

Leave a phone under the pillow is not recommendable at all, but do it while charging is the perfect recipe for disaster!

Heat generated by the charging process

+ Heat an warm of human body

+ Non-ventilation due to the pillow

-----------------------------------

= Nothing good [emoji15]

If you do that, then it's a miracle that you still have your phone alive.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Skipjacks:
This.

Even though it's a small risk to start a fire, it's a big risk that the device will overheat and fry itself internally. Not with flames and sparks, but just with general expansion due to heat that exceed the physical limits of the tiny delicate components. It just takes one solder joint to work loose or one little capacitor to defect and the whole thing stops working.

I learned this lesson in 1997 when I put my PlayStation on the carpet. Burned it out because it couldn't ventilate properly.
[Galaxy S 4 General] TasEsmuEs:
My i9505 also has started to heat up very much when charging.

Before it was not even warm when charging and not in use. Now it is quite hot durning charge and really hot when in use when charger is connected. Before... um.. nothing. It just started without a reason.

Using stock battery, cable, charger and custom rooted ROM. But it started to heat even when it was not rooted or flashed.

Also PLEASE DO NOT TRY CODE *#0228# BECAUSE IT MESSED UP MY BATTERY AND NOW I AM GETTING RANDOM REBOOTS EVEN ON STOCK! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Swizzy88:
Check serial number on battery. If it starts with BD there is a good chance you have a faulty battery like I did. Had random restarts, battery % changing etc and the battery ended up swelling up. Quite dangerous and very important that you stop using it.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] westeight:
Hey guys,

If I encrypt my M8, then do a full Nandroid backup to the SDcard, can this backup be restored to any device or is it device-specific?

Also, am I right in assuming that a backup of an encrypted handset can even be restored? If so, how is unencryption performed after the restore?

Just want to clarify as I'm unsure of 'best practice' when making a full backup.

I'd prefer to make encrypted backups and then store the SDcard safely, but if an encrypted backup is in fact device-specific, it almost seems counterproductive.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] westeight:
Anyone?

Just want to know an encrypted phone can be backed up and then restored before actually encrypting my M8! :p
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarCow:
I don't think you can make a backup if you encrypt your phone. Or even flash any files from recovery. The data will be encrypted and CWM can't access them AFAIK..at least not the HTC encryption.

And backups are not tied to the device as such.

You could make a nand backup with a tool that makes backups while you're booted into Android. Such as Online Nandroid Backup.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] westeight:
Thank you :good:

As mentioned in the initial post I'm using Nandroid Online Backup, so I kind of assumed that as the phone is effectively 'decrypted' whilst I'm booted into the Android, the Nandroid backup would be fully restorable.

But even if that is indeed the case, would the actual backup on the SDCard itself be encrypted data .. or unencrypted due to the decryption which is performed once booted into Android?

My ideal scenario is to have an encrypted M8 + an encrypted SDCard backup. But I assume there would be no way to restore an encrypted SDCard backup .. other than to the original handset/Device ID on which it was first created.

Unless I'm missing something?
