Hello,

I am so unsure if I am in the correct community but I have a problem. My buddy was messing around and put a passwd on my phone and when I shut it off- I have to enter a passwd. Now- I'm mad. I been googling for 2 days and w/o luck I decide to ask for help. How do I preform a Hard Reset on the HTC TyTN AKA t-mobile Vario ii??

Thanks in Advanced

I recently got a Note 3 (N9005) and installed Cyanogenmod on it. Unfortunetly both the Cyan camera and google camera dont support slomo (120fps) or 4k UHD recording. So what I need is either the original camera app for the note 3 to install, or a substitute that will unlock these two features. (Or another fix)

Thanks! Also I'm not sure what other goodies I'm missing out on by not using stock, is there anything important?

[About XDA developers] wisniak:
Hi,

I'd appreciate your recommendation of a converged device (ie PDA & phone) that does everything AND does not have a camera.

Today I have an Axim X51V, that has a very large VGA screen, WIFI, BT, but is not a phone and does not have GPS.

I'm aware of the HP HW6910 and the FS LOOX T810. Both are quite large, due to the fixed frontal keyboard. Further, they have a very small, low-res screen.

I'd prefer a smaller device (possibly by having a sliding keyboard) while not sacrificing the screen size and resolution..

I also don't mind if the device doesn't have an integrated GPS, as I own a BT GPS.

My usage is as follows:

1. Sync with Outlook at the office.

2. Browse the Web via WIFI (B/G) or BT.

3. Navigation, using various navigation apps.

4. Pick up mails while travelling.

5. View/edit documents, PDFs, Excels, etc (but this is a light usage).

6. RSS feeds, weather, etc, all sorts of utilities.

7. Watch family pictures every now and them.

8. No music, basically no movies or games.

Additional considerations (in addition to the above usage):

1. I'd prefer a Quad-Band/Tri-Band device, with preference to GSM networks (as I live in Europe).

2. Support for GPRS, EDGE at the least.

3. Fast CPU, for the Nav apps.

4. Lots of memory.

5. WIFI (B/G) and BT (2.0 preferred).

6. Standard Mini USB port preferred.

7. Powerful battery.

How does the forthcoming WM OS affect my decision?

I'd appreciate your recommendations.

Thank you,

Daniel

[About XDA developers] balld:
:) How about the Cingular 8500? i.e. The non-camera version of the Cingular 8525. I just recently(2 days ago) received my Cingular 8525, and I am EXTREMELY pleased with it.
[About XDA developers] wisniak:
What is the generic name of the Cingular 8525?

The non-camera thing is imperative, as my workplace won't allow cameras.
[About XDA developers] balld:
Well, I'm not 100% sure what you mean by a generic name, but essentially it's a Hermes 100 device(minus the camera, of course). I'm also not sure if Cingular is shipping these units yet, or if they even have any in stock. My uneducated guess would be that they release them at the same time as the 8525, but of course, I could be wrong about that. BTW, my 8525 is just fantastic!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groovy_ZA:
Hi guys,

I have a seemingly simple question... I am in South Africa, a friend in the states sent me a US Cellular Galaxy S4 (SCH-R970)

I have read all over the place to see if this phone can be SIM unlocked to work outside of the USA but I'm not getting any definitive answers.

Some say all S4's have GSM capabilities so there has to be a way to unlock it, others say it is only CDMA making it impossible to work on GSM...

So can someone please give me a straight answer?

Is it possible to SIM unlock a US Cellular Galaxy S4 (SCH-R970) to work OUTSIDE the USA ???

Thanks so much, appricate the time and help! :D

In reference to the new storage configuration scheme mentioned in this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54537828&postcount=677

I would like to create a new discussion for people who already implemented the re-partitioning of their phones following this method

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Fairphone_Fairphone/Guides#How_to_partition_your_Fairphone

Please share your experience and confirm if the re-partitioning needs to be reverted prior to implementing the new storage scheme which uses fuse.
[Fairphone 1] simsalonaut:
Used that method, worked like a charm. Since I'm using AOSP and there have been zero updates for it, I probably won't reformat unless Fairphone starts updating their AOSP OS as well. Will update this post when/if they do.
[Fairphone 1] Donat.Callens:
to repartition or not to repartition

How about people with a repartitioned phone that applied the new storage scheme? Should we revert back to 1GB for the /data partition beforehand?
[Fairphone 1] _keesj:
Hello, The partition upgrader rewrites MBR/EBR1/EBR2 *after* performing the update to the /system partition. It assumes the /system partition is not altered. I have not tried modifying the partition layout using the methods discussed on this forum (modifying the extended master boot record). As a result of the upgrade EBR2 is no longer used but remains present. MBR is not altered so only EBR2 and the PMT partition are modified before the cache and data partition are formatted. If only /data and the FAT partition are modified you should be fine. These are at the "end" of the disk.

I previously tried to download the APK from the link on the WIKI bellow but ended up downloading the wrong file(addware from the hosting company?) this is where I gave up.

[Fairphone 1] Donat.Callens:
download the repartitioning tool

Here is the original thread with the tool:

http://www.movilesdualsim.com/tema/...ilmente-data-apps-com-4gb-8gb-16gb-rom.31769/

This site refers to another download links to the same file:

http://www.china-devices.com/Thread-Tool-App-for-repartitioning-MTK-6589-Memory

As sear for Meteos MTK6589 will pop up many sites where it is to be found.
[Fairphone 1] Donat.Callens:
The original thread explains that you should perform a backup of EBR1 and EBR2 for safety. I assume this means only those two are modified. Could this mean we can apply the new cherry partitioning scheme on a re-partitioned phone without prior modification?

Note

: hereby the mentionned commands for the backup

it did not seem to work for me

I'm afraid I must report otherwise from my personal experience. I had previously re-partitioned my phone with a 4GB internal space storage. When applying the new FP partitioning schema, I did not loose my data as I should have. I am now stuck with bizarre values for the partition sizes.

Only the first part of the uprade has happend. The first part replaces the root file system, recovery and some other system partitions.

The second part of the upgrade is launched on the next boot in /system/etc/install-recovery.sh (itself copied from /system/bin/fp1_partition_upgrade ).

It checks if the partition upgrade has happened and if not perform the upgrade.

This step is not working on your phone/layout and to understand why you need to get the kernel messages (dmesg or logcat) while doing the upgrade.

/system/bin/fp1_partition_upgrade

#!/system/bin/sh
#
# Upgrade the partition layout from FP1 to FP1U
#
#
# dump pmt to see if the upgrade has happend
if /system/bin/fp_part -r -f /dev/pmt | grep FAT > /dev/null

Can you please also provide the dmesg output, possibly using a private message? (the logcat does contains the info I am looking for an might contain private data)
[Fairphone 1] Donat.Callens:
custom recovery might be the source of the problem

I did not run the command, I merely started the FairPhone updater's partition upgrade tool. It displays a progress window like the first time, so I guess it is at least trying.

After the progress window, I get

I then reply

I can try to let it install the stock recovery and run the partition updater after that to see if it solves the problem.
[Fairphone 1] _keesj:
Post partition upgrade:

-The zip files downloaded have a different scattter file (a file describing the partition layout) that gets checked by the normal recovery.

-The zip are signed with a different key

This does not apply to the partition upgrader itself but might impact custom recovery users. The upgrader also replaces the recovery.
[Fairphone 1] Donat.Callens:
I replied No to the question: ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?

This solved the issue. The installer completed and now my phone is back to factory default. I have 13.37 GB total space :). I will restore my backups. Thank you for your support _keesj.

Please ensure user are informed they have to let the installer replace the existing custom recovery with the factory one for the partition upgrader to work correctly. You can always restore your custom recovery afterwards

I hereby confirm that, in my case, the partition upgrader worked with a modified partition scheme. For reference, I had changed the internal storage space to 4GB in the past.

This is why I like xda-developers and Fairphone and its community accompanied development so much. Not only I can follow the rapid conversations on problems and solutions that I could even run into, I also learn a lot about related techniques, background and the challenges in throwing a fair phone on the market.

I definitely appreciate the work of the xda developers, keejs and joemier - and of course all the others that stand behind that all. KUDOS!

But will all my apps still work, if I do backup the two partitions and then after the upgrade put everything on the one remaining partition? I guess quite a few apps might still "look" for their data on the no longer existing second partition, won't they?
[Fairphone 1] _keesj:
Steps for "fiixing" your upgrade

Some user have repartitioned the partition of their FP1U using tool mentioned in on this forum. FP1U does not need this as the new layout is perfectly fine.

I think the following steps *should* work to get their phone back to "normal"

#get the partition upgrader

wget http://storage.googleapis.com/updat...G13G_partitionUpgrade_v1_6_OTA_2014-07-31.zip

#unzip it

unzip FP1_Fairphone_OS_1G13G_partitionUpgrade_v1_6_OTA_2014-07-31.zip

#attach your device to your pc and make sure adb works

#after that push the new partition layout to your device

adb push system/bin/fs_upgrade.bin /mnt/sdcard/

#the rest of the command need to run as root

adb shell

su.

# tell the kernel to perform the upgrade

cp /system/bin/fs_upgrade.bin /proc/sd_upgrade

#reboot and wipe the data

echo "--wipe_data" > /cache/recovery/command

reboot recovery

hello,

I posted about am month ago but the thread is now closed (search for a8-5500-hv) saying I had purchased a lenovo a8-5500-h and wanted to know if there was a way of modding the rom make 3g phone calls as it has 3g data & wifi.

The basic end result was that although no no one had the bits I needed that the H variant was the same hardware with a different rom. This information was from the russian lenovo forum.

Although at the time the rom was not available on the russian site. Two days ago the rom was posted! Along with the other drivers etc needed and some instructions in russian which translate poorly (and in places not at all!) some faffing later I have done it & can confirm it works.

THe original author has given me permission to re-write the instructions in English and to post on this forum if anyone else might want it.
