Same problem

I seem to be having the exact same problem. When I first got it, I was able to use the phone for a couple of weeks, then all of the sudden, the screen stoped responding, but all the buttons worked. I did a hard reset, and it worked for a little while, then when bad again. At first I thought it was related to ActiveSync because it would always go bad immediately after syncing. However, even when I don't sync after a hard reset it eventually goes bad again. Today I just got it back from manufacturer - they couldn't reproduce the problem. It worked all day. Then I synced. Stupid me. Its not responding again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jaimingandhi:
There's no way out. Get a replacement.

I'm hoping that my replaced device doesn't have same issue.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] shassouneh:
same problem

I have the same exact problem. I sent back the Phone to Cingular / HTC, and they "repaired" it under warranty. I got the phone bac, and after a day's use, it went back to its old state.

Since I got this on ebay (BIG mistake), even though it was new, its having this problem.

So far i am not at ALL impressed with the 8525. Seems to me like its laden with hardware issues.

Can someone please offer insight as to what I can do?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jaimingandhi:
Sorry to hear that! I had actually purchased i-mate JasJAM from Dubai. i-mate has just one service center in USA (PocketPCTechs in CA). They provided amazingly great customer service and replaced the main board. So far the problem hasn't repeated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] xdaLurker:
Hey, I am having the same problem as well. Bought my phone on December 06 from eBay seller too. Big mistake as HTC will tell you sorry your warranty is void if you did not purchase the device from the carrier (even though it was new.) I am curious how you were able to get it repaired under warranty since you too bought yours from a third party.

I did the credit card trick and it worked flawlessly for about two months and just yesterday I am back to the same problem. After today doing the credit card trick numerous times I finally got the touch screen working now but who knows for how long this time.

BTW my serial number is in the HT642Fxxxxxx if anyone else that has this problem wants to compare and post theirs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] microft:
Facing the same problems...

... I've been thinking about repalcing the display and the touchscreen. But now, considering that it is a HW issue, I can only replace these two things. If the bug is in the module above the screen (statur leds and camera) or related to the wireing at the back of the screen, it won't get rid of the problem. On the other hand, if it is a problem with the screen getting too hot, then I'm on the right track...

Has anyone tried this yet?

I'll try to call HTC on monday, maybe they know where the bug is.

Hi I completely remove the Samsung galaxy tab 4 bootanimation.

What I did:

mv /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg /system/media/bootsamsungbackup.qmg

mv /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg /system/media/bootsamsungloopbackup.qmg

reboot

Result as I expected No more boot animation.

Then I cannot close the screen anymore on my tablet, so I taught i did something else wrong:

What I did:

Rename the bootsamsung.qmgs to their original names.

reboot

Bootanimation is back and now i can turn the screen off of my tablet.

Is samsung putting a flag or something when we remove the boot animation or what?

Does anybody had this problem on a Galaxy Tab 4? Is there a workaround instead of making a custom one?

thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] Kenny243:
So, I had been saving money for Note 4 for pretty long, was really excited when they released the Note 4.

But once I found out it runs on Snapdragon 805 and 32-bits, it was kind of disappointing.

Was hoping for a Snapdragon 810 and 64 bits, because I head Andriod L will be designed for 64 bits.

Note 4 also have the Exyon Octacore, 64 bits version of Note 4, which I heard it's only available in certain market, and USA is not one of it.

So, does anyone if I get a "official" Exyon version of note 4 in USA?

Like it will run 4g LTE on T-mobile, and have the features that T-mobile have?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HCFL:
Hey everyone. Like a lot of people out there, I flocked to the LG G2 when it was released. Instead of waiting for Bell, Telus or Rogers to stock the phone I decided to get ahead of the pack and buy it from an online retailer.

I picked up the phone from a Canadian website called ncix.com . They stocked the international version (D802). I ordered it for $629.99 .

First impressions were good. Its fast, lasts long, and looks beautiful.

Ive been having issues though. It started when the 4.4 update was released. I started having crazy GPS issues. I used to use my GPS all the time in order to find shops around Edmonton.

Now, after the update, I can no longer use navigation or GPS related apps. I can see that this is a widespread issue. Everyone, to one extent or another, experiences this issue on the LG G2.

I tried everything stock related to try and fix it. Tried thick paper under the GPS contacts, tried pulling them up, no use. Tried using status apps to download agps data, still nothing.

So heres the issue: I called LG support about my problem. I told them where I bought it and they tell me it's out of their hands because I didn't buy it from an authorized LG dealer.

My number one question is, if you know your product has an issue, why prevent someone from receiving warranty for a manufacturer issue?

An even bigger question is: why release a phone that you KNOW has an issue?

Does anyone else support my questions?

This is my last LG product now that I know they release unfinished electronics. Also to know that they do not acknowledge that they screwed up and don't support broken products.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaysusername:
Hey, I'm in a similar boat as you, bought second hand and warranty is apparently non transferrable despite being less than a year old.

Anyway, I really do feel this is a software/firmware issue. I posted in one of the other threads but I'll ask you the same....when I use the Munzee (location based game)app and set GPS to always on my GPS notification icon doesn't go grey like it does with google maps and I don't seem to lose signal. I'm just trying to find someone to test my theory because it would confirm (?) that the problem lies in the GPS putting itself to sleep.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyPeXeLeD:
Well, i got a D806, D802 variant, wich is pretty much the same.

So far i didnt step much in stock 4.4 android, i simply updated my D806 to 4.4 to grab cloudyG3 rom and so far no GPS issues. As far as you havent got warranty, have you thought of going into custom ROMS/Kernels?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
My advice is it should be your last smartphone or at least last Android smartphone.

What makes you think phones from Sammy, HTC, Sony, ... don't have GPS issue?

Second note: I'm on stock with 4.4.2 and have no issue with GPS.

Third note: are you running the latest firmware? would you do factory reset and see if it gets any better? or you can find a way to reverse back to their original form. Worst case, root, custom recovery and flash some other ROMs and see what happens next.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HCFL:
I bought the phone brand new, not second hand. Also, they told me they would not honor the warranty because ncix is not an authorized dealer, which should be irrelevant knowing that the phone has this preexisting issue.

I'm not interested in rooting or installing custom roms at this time.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DVDL16:
Hey peeps

All right, here is my problem:

My HTC One M7's volume buttons are broken, and my service provider quoted me about $250 to fix it (and not under warranty - they claim it is physical damage :( ). The quote suggests that they must replace the whole casing, so it seems only a new volume rocker won't fix the problem.

I really want to flash ROMs again (as I always did with my Desire), or even just Root. The thing is, when unlocking one's bootloader through the HTCDev (getting a ticket, flashing file via fastboot etc) procedure, you have to use the volume-up button to confirm if you want to unlock your bootloader.

Is there a way to either:

Remap hardware keys during boot?

Root by bypassing bootloader unlocking?

Send a "VOLUME_UP" command via fastboot USB interface?

Oh and the other thing that complicates things: the device's HBOOT is version 1.57

Please don't tell me I'm forever stuck on stock...:rolleyes:

Hey guys, this may be a noob question or answered elsewhere, but I've been searching everywhere for 2 days before asking. I have a sprint galaxy s5 and have flashed multiple builds of slimkat and am now running this latest version of cyanogenmod found at the following link.

In every case, the GPS will show the large blue circle with an approximate idea of my location, but no lock, and while it can plan a route, once I start driving, the arrow does not follow me, and within a minute or so, the maps application will say "GPS Signal Lost." I've tried GPS fix apps from the market, and I've tried factory resetting / wiping and reflashing but to no avail. Is there anything else I can try, and suggestions for how to get GPS working?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
adb push can take some time, between 5-10 minutes, maybe a little more depending on the file size. When you adb push a file, the command prompt will be unresponsive for the duration of the file transfer, this is normal, just wait until adb display a message to confirm that the file was successfully pushed (something like: X amount of bytes transferred in X amount of time)

then in twrp, select "install" and choose your guru reset file.

Adb sideload fails sometimes so better to use adb push. If you still prefer to use sideload, make sure you have latest drivers and that you also have latest adb version 1.0.31. Sideload was introduced in adb at version 1.0.29 so anything below that version wont work.

to see your adb version, open a cmd prompt and type "adb version" without the quotes.
