[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SGSII_LEDnotify:
Hi all,

So I took the plunge and installed cyanogen, backed up my HTC one first with their software and went ahead and installed the rom.

I had no idea the HTC sync software was dependent on SenseUI being on the device so now I can't recover my contacts or text messages.

No problem, I thought, because cyanogen makes a backup of the current image during install right? Apparently not, so I'm thinking my best course of action is to reinstall a compatible stock rom, get the phone numbers/texts, back up to google and find an app to backup the texts and then reinstall cyanogen.

My question what is the best way to backup the phone so I can retrieve the info with out sync manager?

Also, if anyone knows of an app that lets you save your texts to a file over usb to your computer that would be good.

Thanks!

[Moto X Q&A] butler83:
Recently just got a moto x, I have looked but couldn't see a solution to this. When I take a picture with the flash white objects just seem to go crazy white hue, then if I try to take a close up of something with flash on the resulting photo is just a white screen. Is this a hardware or software problem?
[Moto X Q&A] doitinthedirt:
for some reason moto built this phone and didn't care much about the camera quality actually the camera is fine but the flash qualities crap mine flashes about a second before the damn picture snaps which renders the flash useless, I have two moto xs they both do the same thing. snap to take the picture the flash flashes then goes out than the picture snaps.. gonna have to put up with no flash until the chinese start putting better cameras in motos phones
[Moto X Q&A] butler83:
The camera is OK in outdoor conditions, indoors mine has black wavey lines going across the screen which get captured when photo is taken. This plus the flash issue issue is just a joke, I know it's just a phone and not going to be like proper camera. Big mistake selling nexus 5 for this phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigerbalm2424:
Looking for a bailout here guys. Bought an s4 a year ago and havent really played with it. Had an S2 before this phone that i rooted and had no problems working between ROMS. Last night i was "talked" into rooting my S4. Its an ATT (NC1). After it was rooted someone got a hold of the phone and deleted a laundry list of apps and now barely anything works on the phone. Trying to make a call, message, etc will not work and I get the "unfortunately XXXXXXX has stopped working" message and the app will close. Cant sign in to Google and the playstore will not open, attempts to but then closes. Google+ tries open but says "Couldnt connect to the server".

So i cant even make a call or message on the phone because the applications stop working. I have done a hard reset from both the backup menu and from recovery. Didnt make a difference.

Any ideas? It would be nice to be able to make phone calls again! :) .....And be able to download from playstore...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkerTimes:
I guess he deleted important Apps so that the system can't really work anymore . The only way to fix it is to restore a backup and if you haven't got one you have to flash your current firmware again.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Ric-:
the best thing to do now would probably be to download a stock rom for your version of the S4 and flash it with Odin, you can search for the firmware here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/

On "Type" choose: Smartphone, on "OS" choose: Android, then find your model and select your country, download the latest rom from your carrier, then flash it with Odin.

Hi all,

As most, I have become a member so this is my first post.

I am stuck but I am not entirely sure why.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 and I hate the battery usage the software the phone originally come with and a colleague of mine told me to try and put on a different software so the battery doesnt run out so quick and to get rid of the annoying Andriod/Samsung applications that I do not and probably will never use.

Anyway....

I was under the impression I had to do the following

I have downloaded I9505_-_Official_Google_Edition_4.4.4_by_Jamal2367_Stable-R2 and copied it to the SD card

1. Activate USB Debugging

2. Boot the phone into Download mode (Power button and down at the same time)

3. Download download.chainfire.eu/316/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip[/url]

4. Download devfiles.co/download/CAHmXM6c/Odin_v3.09.zip[/url]

5. Open Odin, plug my phone into USB cable

6. Click the AP button on Odin and then select the CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip file

7. Click Start

8. My phone does something and boots back up and says Updating Software and then in Odin its says PASS 02:05

9. Then I boot my phone into Recovery Mode (this is where the issue comes) I get to a screen where I have the Android man lying down with a red triangle above his stomach. And it says Android System Recover <3e> KOT49H.I9505XXUFNA5 with the options

reboot system now

apply update from ADB

apply update from external storage

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

apply update from cache

I then selected Wipe Date Factory Reset and then Wipe Cache Partition and then apply update from External Storage and select the file I9505_-_Official_Google_Edition_4.4.4_by_Jamal2367_Stable-R2 but then it does it thing but in red it says E: Footer wrong and E: signature verification failed

The phone reboots and it is still in the same OS but obviously with no data, just like a new phone.

Quiet annoying now, can somebody please let me know if I am doing something amazingly crazily wrong or is my phone at fault.

Finally sorry for the long email but I just wanted to give you as much info as poss

I had to same issue, I use this app on the play store called battery doctor (battery saver) its very well saves me battery,

Now there's a test you can do yourself to see if ur battery is bad or going back one is see if the little white sticker us still white if its pink it came into contact with water, another thing you can do is sit the batter flat on a table and spin it if it spins by itself( try on both sides) that means the battery is fattening up and needs to be replaced. Or if u want to you can take ur phone to sprint store and have them test the battery. You just say I need my battery tested I think it's bad. And they will do it for you I used to work for sprint. Now if u need another battery the stock battery is Samsung and you can get it cheap on Amazon.

TouchWiz drained my battery so I could only get about 4 hours out of it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JackMetal:
EDIT--Resolved via Sideload Method--

Has anyone run into issues upgrading encrypted devices? I've been using CM for a few years and decided to encrypt my tablet yesterday. Now when I attempt to update CM I am unable: when it reboots into Recovery it asks for the password to decrypt, I put it in but it fails to decrypt saying Password Failed.. When I reboot the tablet normally, I get into it fine with the same password (as usual). So I'm stuck on 0813 with no way to update unless I wipe the tablet and start over, which I hate to do, although I do have Titanium backups of everything and the tablet is nightly backed up via rsync to my desktop - so I won't lose data, it would just be a hassle.. ;)

Evening XDA,

I have recently got this phone but unfortunately it has a locked bootloader.

Are there any ROMs I can install on locked bootloader? E.g. stock based.

How can I tell if a ROM is safe to flash?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ILIVE4HEAD:
I'm pretty sure that you can only flash ROMS through a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP) and to be able to get in your recovery you need boot loader unlocked. Unlocking it and getting a custom recovery isn't hard though and it comes with bonuses like making nandroids?. And regarding the safety of ROMs I recommend downloading from places that look official. Just Google what ROMs there are for your phone and choose what sounds best (cyanogenmod is pretty good?)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] einfachgaer:
That's wrong, you don't need to unlock bootloader in order to install a custom recovery. Rooting the phone is enough. Then the correct install file from Nut's database and you have more than one recovery.

"Z1C-lockeddualrecovery2.7.XXX-BETA.installer.zip (XX.XXMB)" would be your choice after rooting. More information HERE.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superste2201:
This is correct. I have already rooted and installed recovery on my locked bootloader device. :good:

I cannot unlock my bootloader, unfortunately I get "Bootloader unlock allowed: no"
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] einfachgaer:
To answer you previous question. You can flash any ROM that uses the stock kernel to run. Most of them are labeled stock based or based on stock firmware XYZ.

And as long as you have a recovery and made a backup beforehand, almost every ROM is safe to flash.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
Can you set CWM to warn when a ROM tries to write boot image? Cause that would be ideal for people with locked bootloaders.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
You can just check if there's a boot.img in the zip file I guess. Anyway, it'll simply fail and you have to restore an official rom, no big deal. There aren't many stock based roms anyway.

Hi everyone!

I just had my O2 Xda Orbit delivered three days ago and decided to order as well the CoPilot Live package as I will be using the GPS quite a lot. I spoke to O2 Customer Services before they sent me the whole lot to ask them to send me the CoPilot Live box with the Western Europe maps... They told me that it shouldn't be a problem as the O2 Orbit was released as well in Germany so I expected that package with those maps but guess what?, they sent me the UK & Ireland maps only...

After a few phone calls to O2 Business Customer Services, they told me that "O2 UK would only supply UK & Ireland maps" and for the Western Europe ones I would have to upgrade them from the ALK Technologies website and "they probably would charge me something"...

My question is: is it worth getting that upgrade or should I better return the CoPilot package to O2 and get TomTom 6 for the Orbit? Any experiences on those 2 programs in the Orbit so far? Which one do you think runs better? And which one has an easier installation?

Your opinions will be appreciated... Thanks!
