[Motorola Droid RAZR] prshah:
Hello,

I bought a Motorola XT910K off ebay without realising what I was getting into.

It worked fine, but refused to update OTA even though an update was available from 2.3.6.

So I tried to install safestrap to boot CWM ; now the phone boots to the safestrap screen, but it's scrambled, so I have to "blind" select options.

If I choose to bypass safestrap, it boots to "M logo", and then, after a while, silently reboots.

Please help! I would like to either update to ICS or restore to stock 2.3.6.

I have tried to download stock ROM 2.3.6, but apparently all firmware files are at sbf-developers.org, and cannot download from this site (nginex error).

Current status:

- Phone can boot to recovery menu (AP Fastboot, etc)

- Battery OK (Factory cable)

I have tried various links for over a month, before posting this; please be gentle!

regards,

Are light bleed issues this noticeable normal for this phone? I've had multiple Androids and iPhones and have never noticed anything as obvious.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince_junior:
That is quite noticeable! Mine does not have that issue. I had bleeding issues with my former phones, but not that noticeable. If i were you, ill have it checked by the service center.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buddy Revell:
Thanks for the input. I just wanted to know if it was a normal thing with Huawei screens.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chololazo:
Mine seems to have the same noticeable light leaks, but only if I crank it up to the highest brightness setting. The most apparent ones are also near the Sim / SD card slots and another near the volume rockers. It doesn't bother me though. Does anyone else get these?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buddy Revell:
Yup, that's the exact same spots as my phone. It's very annoying to me when I tried to put dark wallpapers and during movie watching, especially for really widescreen vids that have to be letterboxed. Pretty disappointed in this.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dolohan:
I do not know if it will work for you, but it works for me. Just press strongly with your finger the bezel in a way that minimize the light bleed. Little by little you should manage to have à more homogenous back light.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buddy Revell:
Well, the light bleed problem is also noticeable in the replacement AM7 I received. Not very good for watching movies with lots of black or for using black themes/wallpapers imo. Here are pics of them next to an iPhone, all with the same wallpaper.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince_junior:
^wow, the light bleed issue in your unit is really serious! And even the replacement has the same problem?

However, in my unit, no matter how I try to look at it, in dark and completely black wallpapers, I cant seem to find any lihht bleed.

I wonder if other users here also experience this issue?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buddy Revell:
This situation is very frustrating. I wonder how common of a problem this is with the AM7?

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vince_junior:
Wow. While my phne was in recovery installing latest OTA update, against a very dark bacground, I noticed the light bleed on the right side, where the power and volume buttons are located.

So yes, I confirm the light bleed. And I think it is a build issue.

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiceCarpet:
Did you make sure auto brightness was disabled after sliding the brightness slider to max? Moving it to max alone doesn't give you maximum brightness.

As for the tint, you can change the colour temperature of your screen by going Settings -> Display -> Colour Temperature. Adjust that till you're happy with the colour tint.

also, that white spot is pretty alarming. i guess you have to show it to the service center technician for diagnostics.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] juno106:
Hi Guys

I'm from Macedonia,Europe and I have a chance to buy tomorrow cheaper NOTE4 from T-MOBILE or VERIZON.,or AT&T.Since VERIZON uses CDMA frequencies,can you help me by clearing things up:

Is AT&T NOTE 4 compatible with my carriers frequencies here in Europe? I think that it is GSM and that the voice calls will not be problem,but is 4G/LTE compatible here?

My carrier is ONE and they told me that their 4G/ LTE uses 1800MHZ (band 3 I think) and 800MHZ(bend 20).

These are the frequencies of AT&T NOTE4 from their website:

4G-LTE

Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, 20, and 29

4G

HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul

3G - UMTS

850/1900/2100MHz

GSM/GPRS/EDGE

850/900/1800/1900MHz

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which one is best to use in Europe for 4G/LTE?

Please help as soon as possible.I have to tell my friend to buy it from USA tomorrow at latest !!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] sweetboy02125:
Yes. My ATT Note4 works fine with 4G. You have to spend $15 to buy the unlock code for faster unlock (6h-2days) instead of waiting 5-10days from the carrier. My ATT Note4 works fine in Germany, Italy and Austria. Not sure Macedonia but I think it works fine.

Sent from ♤ Galaxy Note 4 ♤ Please excuse if any typos.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] juno106:
On which frequencies does your carrier work? Or maybe it works on every carrier ,because as I see, AT&T have the biggest range of 4G/LTE frequencies for their NOTE 4 :

4G-LTE

Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, 20, and 29

4G

HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul

3G - UMTS

850/1900/2100MHz

GSM/GPRS/EDGE

850/900/1800/1900MHz

Mobile operators here in Macedonia operate only on 1800MHZ for 4G/LTE I think !!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mothmanex:
So I have had the Xperia Z ultra for over a year, and today I have had a problem with the screen. The problem is that the screen auto-touches itself, so basically I can not do anything the phone I tried the next things to fix the issue, but the issue is still there :

- Clean the screen

- Remove the anti-shatter film

- Clean screen again

Does anybody knows a fix for this? Do I need to dimantle the phone to repair the issue?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mothmanex:
Ok, decided to do some tests. I used a hair dryer to heat up the Z ultra screen, after that, the screen was more responsive that before (didn't go crazy, more than half of the screen was working all right.)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] lopri:
It is possible there was moist on the screen which caused the freak out .

Allegedly, Orange have officially launched HSDPA, and branded it Orange 3G+.

http://www.business.orange.co.uk/servlet/Satellite?pagename=Business&c=OUKPage&cid=1044133173948

According to the fieldtest application, this does seem to be the case, although I've never actually managed download rates greater than around 300kb per second, the same as 'normal' 3G.

Has anybody managed to get correct HSDPA download rates on Orange, and if so, do we need some kind of SIM update or account setting changed?

Andy.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jpxdude:
Hi Andy,

Funny you should mention this...Yesterday, I upgraded my M3100 with the wm6 lsvn version which as the radio 1.34.0010 and spl 1.10.oli version included. That night, after putting in my orange 3G settings that were in place before, I was shocked to see the 'H' symbol appear on the top!! I browsed around using the full opera web browser and some internet explorer ones, while connected to Windows Live! and everything appears much slicker. I am also from London, but also the H symbol never appeared on the original Orange software that was on the phone...

I guess Orange may have some restriction in place on their devices to prevent them using HSDPA yet *shrugs* But i'm convinced it was working for me with the custom 'cooked' WM6 rom! Is there any tool I could use to test this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TheBrit:
I'm innterested in an Orange cooked WM6 from for my M3100 - where can I get it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] andyf1:
I've since managed to find some active HSDPA in London, with my standard M3100, no new ROM's etc. Wasn't fantastic, but managed a download at about 450kbps so seems to be working.

I think that WM5 and/or the Radio ROM installed as standard with it doesn't show the 'H' icon, even though in theory it *is* HSPDA enabled.

This thread explains how to tell if definitely on HSDPA:

The fieldtest application is explained in the wiki I believe.

My father is turning 56 this year, and his HTC MyTouch 4G Slide is finally failing him this year. Great phone in its own right. Now I want to get him a new phone for his birthday and I ordered the Moto G because the reviews were great.

2. Press and hold Volume up+Volume down+Power to start the phone

3. Press Volume up two times to reach Recovery Mode and press the power button -- you wil see the Android laying on its back wiy his belly open

4. Use the Vol DN key to scroll two positions down to the “wipe cache partition”. Use the power key to select that option. You will see messages "-- Wiping cache. . .", "Formatting cache. . ." , "Cache wipe complete."

5. After the message "Cache wipe complete." the option "reboot system now" will be highlighted. Press the power button to select.

Hearing no others...

I wasn't going to answer this one, because it is akin to "which is the better ROM?" which is very subjective. My answer is try them out for yourself. :)

Expect an amount of lag anyway because you are trying to load a firmware version (Kitkat) that wasn't made for this device (single core CPU, 512MB RAM).

I did a similar walkabout a while back to see which one is the most reliable. My sig will tell you which one I ended up with (phone has since been sold).

Since there are no custom rom ( like CWM Roms or any kind of ) for this device there are also no custom recoveries for this device.

Have read a lot of posts and how to's about creation of custom recovery.

Have also tried with no luck CWM recovery builder ... Two friends abroad have tried to solve it with Ubuntu, but they got stucked with instalation and setup, init stuff ...

What I'm asking is is there any1 who could and will help to build any kind of recovery. I'm stucked on stock and I'm only missing whole nandroid backup like in my other android phones, It doesn't even has to be touch recovery.

The phone is Samsung Galaxy Core 2 (G355HN), it's latest build on 4.4.2 android. All infos and images, decompiled kernel and ramdisk of recovery is here.

If anything else needed I would gladly help.

I'm looking forward if any1 could help me to resolve this request. Any other infos or feedback I'll provide.
