[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MDACompact:
Hi

My device (Vario II) is longer working for ActiveSync via USB (don't have the option for Bluetooth Synch).

I use MS Exchange and AS 4.1 and have never previously had issues, everything synched perfectly. However, I have now had to start using Outlook Express (for a different company email) on the same computer and this seems to have completely messed up direct AS via USB. I can still sync OTA in the normal fashion but am getting a little frustrated in terms of not having it synched via USB.

I've messed about with AV Firewall settings, all relevant boxes ticked, and that's not making a difference!

Any ideas?

Cheers

Hi there. Does anyone know if there's a way to hide the app icons on moto E's kit kat 4.4.4?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prashanth Meesara::
You mean icons in app drawer?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wzwilliam:
No, I mean in the apps session. I ended up being able do it with an app specific option. But if anybody knows if (and how) it can be made through system options, it still could be helpful.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prashanth Meesara::
if you mean to hide in setting>app section then you can freeze the app and i dont think you have any way to hide it or make it a system app so that i will be shown only in app apps section not in downloaded app
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meperson70:
You can make any app a system app

In ROM Toolbox by jrummy you press on the app in app manager and one of the options is to make it a system app (you might need to swipe the options to see that one)

Once it is a system app it won't show up in downloaded apps, will be in safe mode, and you can disable it

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Morasta:
Last night I S-OFFed a Sprint HTC Evo 4G LTE that was on the latest MeanBean rom with hboot 1.19. That was successful and I did a full wipe of the device. After that installed the Sense_5.0_4.3-Y20 rom per the instructions.

Everything works EXCEPT sending and receiving sms. Since last night only one message was received, but I haven't been able to repeat it. Not a single message has sent successfully. Voice works fine, data works fine, etc. Tried searching the forums, particularly the rom's thread, but no luck. Tried Handcent in addition to the stock messages app with no luck. Reboots also make no difference. Tonight I'm planning to try another wipe and then toss the rom on it again.

In the meantime, does anyone else have any suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] GuestK0087:
Dial ##72786# from your dialer. Select reset from the menu. Your phone will reboot and reactivate. Your service will be reprovisioned. No data will be lost.

Edit:

I don't know how or why this quoted another post. The trusty XDA premium app is top notch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Morasta:
Haha, that quote had me confused for a moment. Anyway, tried what you said and received the following on reboot: "PRL could not be updated. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service. error code: 1012"

First time I've actually seen a PRL update fail. Attempting Google Fu on that now.

You may need to call Sprint and have them run the reprovision from their end.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _eternal:
I have a strange problem. I noticed that certain apps (mainly the system apps like Play and Maps) don't work when I'm connected to wifi on my home Asus AC66U router, even though the bars are blue.

What's odd is that those apps work on both 3G and on other wifi networks. That should mean there's a problem with the router somehow, but every other device (PC, laptop, another Android phone) works fine. This has also been a persistent problem so the router doesn't just need a reboot.

I used to run a custom ROM so there's a chance something got messed up when flashing updates, but I eventually did a factory reset and returned to stock. And I've tried clearing the system apps' caches of course. Any ideas?

[T-Mobile LG G3] 88keys6strings:
Like many of you new flashers, I have flashed the SkyDragon ROM and have noticed that there is no connectivity to the computer whatsoever, so I did a little digging. I went back and forth between 2 Nandroid backups and kept flashing parts of them until I could narrow down where this problem was coming from. I found out that it comes from the specific folder - data/property

There is a missing file called persist.sys.usb.config ,13B in size, and I have no idea what it does (maybe some of you could enlighten me) but throwing the old file into that folder, changing the permissions to rw-------- and rebooting worked like a charm.

I apologize for not sticking this into the development thread, however I'm a lurker with no input! :victory:

Without further ado,

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY BORKEN DEVICES. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING, DON'T DO IT!

1. Download Root Browser and RB Text Editor

2. Navigate to /data/property

3. On the bottom bar, tap the "New" button

4. Click on "New file"

5. Enter the file name as follows:

persist.sys.usb.config

6. Click the file you just made and hit "Open as..."

7. Hit "Text file"

8. Click RB Text editor

9. Delete whatever is there and enter as follows:

auto_conf,adb

No spaces or caps!

10. Save the file by clicking the save button on the top right corner.

11. Reboot your phone

12.Profit

[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
i could just drop this in the proper location before flashing the rom yes ??
[T-Mobile LG G3] 88keys6strings:
Only if you're going to dirty flash it, but at that point, I'd just dirty flash it anyways. The file should already be there if you're on a ROM that can recognize your phone. I also do recommend a clean flash. I'm sorry if I made this difficult. When flashing the rom, it'll format /data which is where the file is held so if you had the file there already, it would just wipe it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
i was talking from a clean install

drop file in the proper location then wipe phone flash rom with new file and them proceed to set up the phone
[T-Mobile LG G3] 88keys6strings:
As long as it's after the wipe then yes. If you opened up the zip that contains the ROM, you could head into /data then create a new folder called property and throw the file in there then zip it back up and flash it. But you MUST put the file in /data/property AFTER you flash the ROM. You could drop the file into a downloads or media folder because those don't get touched then flash the rom then move it and change permissions then reboot as well.

So no, you cannot drop the file in it's PROPER location before you wipe, otherwise it'll get deleted. However, you can copy/paste it into say, mnt/sdcard/Download, via your root browser, beforehand then follow my instructions

[T-Mobile LG G3] Jephre:
I tried creating my own file as per the instructions (came to 13b size for the file too), but my phone isn't being recognized in android file transfer.

Then again, it wasn't recognized either when I was on stock rom (prior to flashing anything).
[T-Mobile LG G3] Cablespider:
On my phone, the file already existed. Its contents read....

boot,adb,mtp

I changed it accordingly based on your instructions, reboot and nothing.

I found that if you turn USB debugging off, then on again, the file will get overwritten with the original code...boot,adb,mtp.

Could it be that this command simply enables USB debugging? That's what my testing showed. I turned off debugging, made the file change, reboot and debugging was enabled. Disable debugging and the file gets overwritten. Rinse, repeat. If I delete the file, it is recreated when enabling USB debugging....boot,adb,mtp.

Just a preliminary finding. I'm not well versed enough to explain or troubleshoot it any further. It did nothing to cure my USB problem.
[T-Mobile LG G3] 88keys6strings:
I may have overlooked something. I deleted some usb portion of the build.prop. Didn't change anything so i didnt think about it. If you make a backup then edit it deleting the usb part, then reboot that might get it to work.If you need specifics, I'll be next to a computer in about an hour and a half

I copied one of the persist.sys files from that folder to my sdcard and edited it with Rom Toolbox Pro. I opened it as a text file and deleted what was there, then added the stuff in the OP and saved. I then renamed the file to persist.sys.usb.config and added it to that folder and changed permissions and rebooted. Worked fine.

FYI, in case anyone else buys or constructs one to play with...

After playing with this for a few minutes, I discovered that it will work, but the magnetic button is on the wrong side (it's on the left) to work with the sensor on the phone. That means that the power and volume buttons go down, the camera is on the wrong side for the cutout, the startup menu and some of the apps render upside down. The simple solution is to move the button to the right side of the box.

Anyone here know how I can get free WiFi tethering without t mobile knowing. I only have 5gb of hot spot and am almost at my limit.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustLok:
You're better off posting this question or searching for your T-Mobile D851 variant answers here.

As for that question in particular, there's no mod or fix to allow it that you can do on the phone (some work but knock out LTE), but there is an app called Wifi Tether Router, that works with the G3 (I use it successfully).

You can try FoxFi and all, but their app prices are more than double the above app.

The G3 is unique in that it doesn't allow your APN to be changed and adding one breaks the LTE and data connections with T-Mobile.

For one of the threads on the tethering use with T-Mobile's G3, check out here.

Hi

Purchased a rooted chromecast. and need some help in setting it up. Would plugging in and setting it up on my tv clear the root? There was a website link on XDA that could check the firmware but when I tried to navigate to that link it turned out to be invalid.

Any advice on setting up a rooted chromecast? Should I follow a different set of steps?

Thanks in advance
[Google Chromecast] Kyonz:
Hi dalkiel,

Does this boot with the Team Eureka Logo? (Or Pwncast if an old root).

If it does then you are free to set it up as needed, these roms remove the update logic so the device is safe to use as you would a normal device (set up, reset user data, etc).
[Google Chromecast] dalkiel:
Hi

Thanks for your reply i plugged it into the tv (samsung smart tv) and nothing popped up so i figured I need to start with the PC first. Downloaded the chromecast setup files and ran set up. It showed me a code and wanted to verify if thats what I saw n the tv? I didnt want to proceed further without clarifying in case i wipe out the root. There was no boot screen with Eureka or pwncast when plugged into the tv or PC.

Further advise would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
You won't wipe out root...All you are really dong is setting up WiFi Access in a setup and changing the name of the device on the network.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
You should see a Team Eureka logo on boot, but depending on your TV you might have to let it boot completely then reboot it again to see it (TV input detect sometimes takes too long to "lock on" to the input).

Hello guys, I'm trying to unlock my sprint S4 to use with metroPCS....I got the phone from a friend of mine because he switched to iphone. The phone is currently running the cm11 archerom rom with NAE baseband

What I've done so far was

- followed the international sim unlock guide and was able to downgrade my modem from NAE to MDC via odin running cm11.

- I couldn't get the phone to go into Diag mode to use the s4 unlocker program...I tried using scripts (Aosp script for diag mode) but the phone would not get recognized on my computer ( running windows 8) so the S4 unlock flasher couldn't detect the device.

- I tried to odin the phone back to stock samsung twz so that I could get into diag mode easier. I flashed stock MF9 rooted touchwiz rom via odin but it failed everytime. I was trying to flash the mdc baseband after so that I could use to unlocker program.

- The phone soft-bricked after that but I was able to fix it by flashing a custom recovery but my phone audio went out with DSPmanager crashing and music, audio not playing.

-I resolved that problem by flashing back the NAE modem, now everything is back to where I started from, I'm not sure where to go from now

What I might do next is, try to use cwm to flash back to stock samsung twz rom but I'm not sure which rom to flash in order for me to unlock my S4....

What do you guys think? Thanks for reading!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] daniel4653:
Odin full NAE. You cannot downgrade the bootloaders thus why you were not able to successfully Odin MF9 because you have a Knox boot loader.

This is my phone specification:

device : MITO A210[rooted but havent installed cwm yet];

os : Jelly bean;

PC OS : Ubuntu 14.04;

references : xda forum(but cant see my device), another web/blog;

sorry if my language is not good enough.

I think I have to tell all about the story.

first, my phone have problem "bootloop" after I changed font. Then I enter onto recovery mode, but theres no option to recover my phone to factory state. So I just try to access my android with adb. I can access my devices with root permission and also I mount /system as write/read mode.

All I did with adb is :

-reboot recovery from adb, but nothing changed,

-fixing fonts permission,

-trying to install cwm[but I cant because theres no option in recovery mode to install from zipped file],

-then I try clean cache,

because nothing change, I try to wipe data "on adb shell, # wipe data" from adb because I cant see option from recovery mode,

again, nothing change.

then I try wipe all "on adb shell, # wipe all" I think with it system data will change to factory state,

but NO, my android now is on blank state, just booting logo and do nothing, and I cant access with adb.. also I cant find where download mode is.

I know I did wrong act with my stupid wipe and no backup.

now what must I do? please, if theres way to install on blank state of my phone?

Then after installing that, I saw something about safestrap and decided to install that too. So I installed BusyBox and then safestrap and I could boot into safestrap no problem, made a backup of my device and then wiped everything (/data dalvik&system) After that my phone rebooted and went into CWM recovery, i didn't think anything of it and I tried flashing the latest nightly CM11 build (cm-11-20140821-NIGHTLY-jflte.zip) but when I try this it gives me:

E:signature verification failed

In red and then continues and tries to reboot, but when it does it just gets frozen at the Samsung loading screen. Ive tried a few different CM builds but they all do the same.

Ok - bad news - you are screwed! Unless you are on MDK bootloader, you are limited to root, safestrap and a TW-based ROM like Eclipse. No CM! Some people have had some success with an AOSP rom but stick with TW based ones.

Then reroot, load safe strap as before and your TW based rom.

How much was your phone?

Do some reading because your going to brick it.

You can use safestrap with roms based on your current kernel version, you can flash roms but cannot change your kernel, so the rom must use the stock kernel. Read threads on safestrap, as well as your current firmware version.

Our S4 has a locked bootloader, so you can't just flash whatever you so please. The safest route is to flash a stock NC5 image since that's what you're running. Either the downloads aren't finishing, or your internet is nuts fast (and thus I envy you.)

What version of odin are you using? Also which tar file are you using? If you're on kitkat you NEED to use the NC5 tar file that Whoop5 posted.
