[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedalus5:
Hi,

It was terrible weather yesterday, so thought I would finally try and root my phone and do a custom install.

I finally managed to install Jellytime_42_R7 and the GoogleApps mod which works. Everything is ok - except the GPS. I have tried GPS Status and Toolbox, plus GPS Status Test & Fix. Nothing.

I woudl expect to see the icon of a satellite.

So, my question is, how do I get GPS to work?

Also, is the Jellytime_42_R7 the best ROM to use? I want full phone functionality, and the only reason I have for putting a new ROM in my phone is so I can use Google Maps 8, which has automatic traffic re-routing. I want to use the camera, bluetooth and flash/torch, Wi-fi and roaming data.

I have tried much googling, but apart from lots of lists, somewhere telling me what the latest, stable Release Candidate of ROMs seems to escape me.

Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedalus5:
Phew.

I downloaded Jellytime_42_R11 (which fixed my bluetooth issues).

Then I used the terminal (with super user access writes to type):

# stop rmt_storage

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14

# reboot

Amazingly, it worked.

Sorry for the double posting, thought it woudl be good if I posted the solution as well.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1028405

Can anyone please advise on how on earth does someone tell which ROM is fully working and is a stable version? E.g. when I was doign all my initial hunting, version R11 wasn't obvious for the Desire HD.

Which ROM should I be using?
[HTC One X] PCServe:
Firstly I have to mention, that I don't regularly use my One X anymore, but I took it to Italy when I went there for holidays two weeks ago to use it as a hotspot for my HTC One and Macbook.

It was working just fine until 3 days ago, the day I flew home. During my last night the phone started rebooting every 10-20 minutes, until the battery was dead. Now that I'm back home I charged the phone and turned it back on, but it is still acting strange. I just put it on my table and realized the screen was turning on randomly and turning off again after the normal timeout. This happened again and again and after a few times the phone turned itself off and back on. This whole procedure happens over and over again in a loop.

Therefore I performed a hard reset, but the problem is still the same. Even if I turn the device off completely, it comes back to life automatically after just a few minutes. I have no idea what I should do with it, except waiting for the battery to die.

Has anyone had this problem before and knows how to fix it? I hope it's not a hardware defect, as I really like the One X as a backup phone.

Cheers,

Jake

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilentStapler:
So I made a mistake because I was impatient :rolleyes:

I had found the thread on changing the ringer volume and saw it suggested to use 920 Text Editor to do so. After editing the file I kept trying to save it, but 920 kept telling me that it couldn't save the file because the directory was read-only. So in Root Explorer I kept changing permissions. First the file, then the directory, then finally the entire "system" directory. Then I learned that 920 has a setting that needs checked to allow it to make root changes. Oops.

The problem is that now when I go to change ringtones and press the plus sign to add new ones, I get "No applications can perform this action. Enable disabled built-in application?" and I click "OK" but nothing happens. I also don't show anything in my disabled apps that would be used for such an operation. The other problem I noticed is that my wifi no longer works. I can turn it on and it can connect, but it will only use my data connection.

Is there a way I can reset my phone's files' default permissions? If not, will a factory reset change them? I had previously read that factory resets don't change permissions.

I'm open to any suggestions!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Euch:
Hi,

My wife's been complaining about her sgs3, i9300a phone a lot lately, so I've been taking some time of to have a long hard look at it.

the phone in itself works quite well, it is somewhat guarded (she tends to drop it a lot but most of the time it's actually in it's case) and we've switched the screen once (well, not the screen, the top half of the phone to be exact)

the phone used to have a stock 4.1.3 (I think) samsung rom on it for the past year, it's been working well untill a couple of months ago I think and it does still function properly on light use

so what is the issue?

if you'll start a game, or anything that'll cause the phone to heat up - the screen would flicker a bit (not always) and the battery will suddenly report to be down to 0%, shutting down the device right after.

this sudden discharge is obviously not real, as the minute I connect it to a charger and boot up the phone it shows it's last charge before the phone was shut down - however the issue keeps on repeating itself over and over again.

If the phone is connected to a wall charger (or a pc via USB cable) this doesn't happen.

I've been trying to install a kitkat on the device (it have been working slowly so she needed an upgrade) yet the issue persists.

I've been reading around the Internet, some claim it's a faulty battery issue so I'm ordering one from eBay, however - I can't shake the feeling it might some other faulty hardware, perhaps a memory chip gone bad? as I can't see the connection between a bad battery and a flickering screen.

Truth to be told - I'm not a fan of android, or samsung, so I don't know much of the history of problems with it (if there is any) and I've been hoping that there is someone around here who might encountered (or heard) about my issue and would be able to shed some light for me.

thanks in advance!

Change the battery first, replacing the motherboard isn't worth it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Euch:
Yeah... I'm planning on stealing my boss S3's battery for some testing later on today if he'll ever decide to show up...

perhaps shouldn't have told him that beforehand :)

I did hope someone encountered and fixed/learned about this problem as the device has 2 years of history at least...

if it'll come to motherboard switching I'll just force the little lady to switch to a real phone such as an HTC, or maybe go to WP :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Euch:
It was the battery..

Perhaps I should've guessed it by the fact it was REALLY hard closing the case... but it was only after I saw a normal battery that I noticed the real difference.

so for future reference to whomever might meet the same behavior - my battery was about 1.5 the size of what it should be and was quite round,

better call those Samsung representatives and get a replacement before it explodes :)

Anyone has experience with those 4200Mhz batteries? worth the money or should I just get a genuine one (it cost about the same in here, like 4$ more), the reviews are quite mixed.

Okay so, if you haven't heard of it, Waymarkr is a mobile phone application that continuously takes photos from your phone and uploads them to the Waymarkr website. The concept is called "Life Caching".

The problem is that Waymarkr only works with S60 phones. WHY???

Apparently, the program is built on Python. Is it possible to port this to WM5? I would really like to take advantage of this service. (I have emailed the developers with no respone yet.)

I did eventually get a response from the developers, and they said they had no plans for a WM iteration, but that a JAVA version was in the works. Of course, that doesn't really do me a whole lot of good because of the poor JAVA support on T-Mobile's windows mobile phones.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychDrummer:
This is something I've noticed after using wireless charging to charge overnight for the past few months. I've been using the Nokia wireless charger, and in the morning the phone is usually warm. It's not hot. I checked temp and it's around 95F which is about how it gets after 5-10 min of browsing. I'm not concerned about the temperature, however I was just curious why I've never observed that with wired charging. I know that wireless charging heats up the phone more than wired charging, but after hitting 100% I thought it would act similar. After picking up the phone in the morning it feels cool when taking it off a wired charger. Granted, I've only used this one wireless charger for overnight charging. I have the nexus wireless charger that I keep in the car. I suppose I can try and see what results I get with that.

Anyway, just curious why you guys think. Again, I'm not overly concerned, but just wondering if the phone treats trickle charge differently when using wired vs. wireless.

[IMG="Open Camera icon"]https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/ic_launcher.png[/IMG]

Open Camera is an Open Source camera app for Android that I've been working on.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera

Or install APK directly from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencamera/files/

Open Camera is also available on F-Droid.

Homepage: http://opencamera.org.uk/

Code: https://sourceforge.net/p/opencamera/code/

Features include:

- Option to auto-level using accelerometer so pictures are perfectly level.

- All the usual options like zoom, flash, focus modes (including a "manual" mode to only focus on touch), focus/metering areas, exposure lock, scene modes, color effects, white balance, ISO, exposure compensation, video recording.

- Options for timer and auto-repeated photo taking.

- Configurable volume keys (take picture, zoom, or change exposure compensation).

- Optional geotagging, including compass direction (GPSImgDirection, GPSImgDirectionRef).

- Option to optimise UI for left and right-handed users.

v1.47.3:

[IMG="Open Camera"]https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/googleplay_galaxys10e_v_1_47_3_Screenshot_20191016-115928_Open_Camera_thumb356.jpg[/IMG]

Auto-level feature (from v1.48):

[IMG="Open Camera (auto-level feature)"]https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/auto_level_v_1_48_web.jpg[/IMG]

I want to make Open Camera better, so bug reports and feature suggestions are most welcome (either email mark dot harman dot apps at gmail dot com, PM, at https://sourceforge.net/p/opencamera/discussion/ , or leaving a comment here).

Also a request for help: one of the challenges I've had is the wide variety of different cameras or camera drivers on different devices, and sometimes bugs happen that I can't reproduce on my devices. In particular I've had various reports of problems on Cyanogenmod. If any Android developers out there are willing to help out with investigating issues on any devices/platforms you encounter problems with, this will help Open Camera become a better camera app and I would greatly appreciate it :) Or simply sending me a logcat may help.
[Android Apps and Games] penfold:
I have tried this before. It's an excellent app that takes great pictures.

I'm already using snap camera so have no need for it, but it is better than pretty much all the other apps in terms of picture quality except for a couple.
[Android Apps and Games] Kocane:
Im not too big on comparing the quality of vids and pics between camera apps, to my experience its usually around the same. However, what matters is functionality and I must say this app is really nice. Buttons with quick access to the functions, etc. Especially "exposure lock" i like!

However, it seriously falls behind on the visual part. I know that in a sense it doesn't matter but it's always a nice way to finish off a good app.

May I suggest something in style with the Samsung S5 camera app? (http://i.imgur.com/iy5w369.jpg)

Functions on the left side for easy access with left hand and then shutter button + video/photo mode button on the right.

Another little thing, how about a seperate shortcut for videomode :)?

Thanks for the comments, some great suggestions.

* I like the icons being along the top myself, but I'll add an option to have them go down the side for people who prefer that.

* An option for touch to capture sounds a good idea too.

Can I clarify what you mean by this - there's an icon to switch between photo and video, or do you mean to change video resolution? Or something else?
[Android Apps and Games] Kocane:
Yeah, sorry, I was being unclear. I just mean in the launcher. A camera shortcut and a video shortcut.

Hi,

I just installing your camera and my first impression is :good:. It can detect wide resolution for my camera (16:9) where other competitor can't :D. For now I found bug related to save folder location, each time I open this setting app always tell path not found until I take one photo. Maybe because folder don't exists then app throw an error.

Anyway I didn't explore much this app but here some suggestion:

quick button to change resolution settings

quick button to change camera mode

Maybe HDR mode either software or hardware

Other suggestion will be added later :good:
[Android Apps and Games] mdwh:
Oops yes, that's a bug in the new file chooser, I'll get a fix out for that.

I want to have more accessibility to other options, though need to think about how to do this (more icons means more clutter / running out of space) - possibly having a fully customised GUI, or a swipe down for more options, or other ideas are welcome.

Hardware HDR should be supported if it's offered as a scene mode by the device; doing it in software is something I may do in future.
[Android Apps and Games] hadi_rena:
I vote for swipe gesture to open more options. We can have 4 directions for swiping :D

[Android Apps and Games] fredsky2:
Really loving all the app so far, here's a few ideas/suggestions

Double tap anywhere/press and hold to auto focus + take picture

(this is by far the feature i miss the most from my windows phone life, maybe im not the only one)

Option to mute annoying sounds

more and more obvious GUI feedback (like for when switching from picture<>video)

circle inside the glass square doesn't look that well imhO the start recording/take picture should lose that visible square

angle line looks like an odd part of 3x3 grid (maybe its supose to be like that? i dunno, i know zero of pro-photo taking)

as a side note, at least on my device, the zoom scale looks inverted (at 0x bar it's blue, at 4x it's invisible)

i must say i really really love the option to controle the exposure from the volume menu, great idea

great work!
