Hello all, i have myself an 02 XDA Exec, but during the light of a soft reset

the screen is now working with fault

it looks like there is some sort of high contrast or the in could be bleading on the inside, but the touch feature works, will display pictures

Notice how the screen has different shades, but also patches in the corners of the screen, as ive mentioned the touch sensetivity works fine but the screen looks to be a bit pixelated and and in a different sort of contrast (i am currently reading up on the dis-assembly of it so if its something internal please say something about it)

and no i havnt banged it, smashed it, tried beating it up etc, i honestly dont know whats happened to it.

this is my today screen after a hard reset, basic windows mobile default, look at the different tones of colouring, the sort of slashes across the screen and the shades in the corner of the screen, and im not sure why, although i dont think it really can be ink bleading as when the phone is turned off the screen is as it should be, just off.

Now i will try out the camera on both sides, from the phone and from my camera

Camera's Side

Notice how the screen is in a sort of negative/contrasted style, not one im enjoying thats for sure, but coming from the phone the results are different

Exec Camera

notice how the camera still processes the image properly

which leads me to believe something is wrong with the screen

maybe some part of the frame is being pressed against it or something like that

i will be monitoring this thread closely and please help

With Many Thanks

Does it have this pink tint in reality too? (not only on the shots?)

If it does (and a hard reset doesn't help), then, one of the color transfer wires may be dead or have "only" developed a contact error (or, plainly, they have just been removed from their socket. This happened a lot with other models.)

That is, I'm pretty much sure it's a cheaply fixable problem. Try disassembling your casing and try to rearrange the wires.

In trying to determine which current microsd cards might work best for running apps on an android phone, I can find lots of discussion on xda confirming my understanding that 4k random read/write specs are most important. And these discussions have links to benchmarks illustrating these specs for many cards. But when it comes down to the brass tacks of looking for people who have tried the cards that look most promising for this application, I can find very little.

Toms Hardware has 2011 MicroSSD benchmarks which have been linked in earlier xda discussions on this subject. 2014 MicroSSD benchmarks at Toms' Hardware illustrate the cards mentioned below. I can’t yet post links on xda or I would provide more detailed references.

The Samsung Plus MB-SPBGB Class 6/UHS-I, and the Transcend Extreme TS64GSDU3X look to me like the best bet for 4k random access, according to the above tests, yet I can find almost no one who has reported using these to run apps on android. I can think of many reasons these tests might not show what really works in real life, but I would expect to at least find discussions of why these cards do not work so well if that is the case. There is at least one Sandisk card with good 4k random speeds shown in 2011 tests which I have seen reported, but the Samsung Plus MB-SPBGB was a top 4k performer in the earlier tests as well, yet has not been meantioned since that I can find.

The Samsung Pro, and the Samsung EVO which has similar 4k random specs at a cheaper price, are often recommended for running android apps, not necessarily on xda, but the 2014 tests show the Pro as a poor 4k random performer compared to other choices. Am I missing something?

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kirk
[General Topics] kirkre:
Update in case anyone wonders: Researching further, I find the many CrystalDiskMark scores in Amazon user reviews show Samsung EVO and Sandisk Ultra have the best 4k random speeds. Better on the average than Samsung Pro, Plus or anything else tested in Amazon reviews. Thewirecutter dot com also tested these very cards with A1 SD Bench, which seems to greatly favor EVO. These are the cards I see most recommended in android forums. I was frustrated by the lack of controlled and comprehensive tests that illustrate these results, but looking more and more like these recommendations are spot on.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhable:
Hello,

I recently flashed CWM for my device but had Reactivation lock on so I cannot boot my device because the binary counter is custom. I think if I flashed the stock recovery.img (NK7 build) I should be fine and wont lose any of my info on my phone. Is this the case and if so anyone know of any faster downloads than sam mobile?

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhable:
Was able to fix it by extracting the tar.md5 file, but my device is trying to boot into recovery and that wont work because there is something wrong with chainfire's root method. My recovery will never load and at this point I dont think I can flash a custom one, full restore is only option. If that works...fingers crossed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] verylostboy:
Disclaimer: I am very new to this stuff but have been learning quickly; still though, I ask that you excuse my ignorance.

So I finally worked up the nerve to root my Chinese phone; I thought my Chinese was good enough but I have encountered problems in which my linguistic capabilities fail and it is much too hard trying to communicate on the Chinese language forums.....

So I rooted my TY-K Touch E88 using Root Master 1.3.6, which worked perfectly but then installed a Chinese super user app on my phone with no English called 权限管家. It is a pain but I can manage, though I cannot find a way to uninstall this app and put a new SU app on without unrooting the phone, which I don't want to do.

It worked fine, SU access granted, I checked with Root Checker Basic and through a terminal emulator, blah blah blah.

The problem now is that when I attempt to boot into recovery I get the error message ENTRY QPST DOWNLOAD on a black screen and no boot menu. This error message seems to be specific to my Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8625Q CPU, and that's all I know about it. Though if I just turn the phone on normally everything works fine.

I want to unlock my bootloader, put a new one on my phone (because I assume the stock one is in Chinese) and flash a new ROM on my phone, but I am at an impasse due to this error message and lack of boot menu.

I also can't figure out if, when the time comes, I should use Clockwork or TWRP.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostinthecity:
I had the exact same problem with the same phone about a year ago. I rooted it, using Chinese language rooting software, I installed a Chinese language SU apk, I did everything the Chinese language way and the first time I attempted to boot into recovery mode I received the same error message. Apparently this was a common problem across older TY phones using a Snapdragon CPU and I never found a fix. If your still in China just get a new phone, there insanely cheap and you could get a model that has previously been rooted (using the English language) by someone here in these forums.

[General Questions and Answers] GTMoraes:
Hi.

I have several nlp wakelocks, even with the phone idling at the same frigging place. It gets ridiculous when I'm on the move (like, 100 to 0 in 12 hours with absolutely no usage)

When I was on kitkat, I used an Xposed module that controlled the ratio of polling (Amplify, if I'm not wrong), but at Lollipop, there is no Xposed, so I had to cripple the phone a little and use Greenify on Play Services, which worked Ok when set to always ignore its state.

But now I subscribed to Google Play Music All Access, and when I turn the phone screen off, it gets killed as soon as Greenify hibernates Google Play Services. Removing it from Greenify brings all the battery drain hell back (it wakes my phone 10 times per minute. It's ridiculous)

I've tried changing ROMs, swapping Play versions, and even returning this phone. But it always get tens of thousands wakelocks after some hours, and Play Services sometimes gets more usage percentage than my Quad HD screen (this means it uses a ridiculous amount of power)

Is there any way known to man that fixes this dammed nlp wakelocks without resorting to Xposed?

And without disabling stuff and all.

I know that setting it to only use the device GPS fixes it, but it brings another problem, that when something (like weather or whatsapp, for some reason) needs location, and I'm indoors, it will suck my battery away while looking for a very unnecessarily, precise location. So that's not an option, unfortunately.

Thanks in advance

You can try "Disable Services" on the Play store. Pick System apps, scroll down to Google Play services and then deselect NlpLocationReceiverServices.

Desktop chargers have become of my favorite tech accessories to use this year. It wasn’t until recently this year that I have become accustomed to using a desktop charger for juicing up my devices. These days there are so many gadgets to be charged up by via USB connections. That’s where a desktop charger comes in handy! CHOETECH has a 50 watt 6-port rapid USB charger to help you get all your devices all charged up.

Specs:

Input: AC100-240V

Total Maximum Output: 5V/10A

Charging Port Output: 5V/10A(max)

Quantities of the charging port: 6-ports

Dimension: 88.4*29*71.5mm/ 3.4*1*2.8in

Weight: 158g

After testing and using this desktop charger as a daily driver charging unit, I was please with the results. The cool thing about this particular charger is that it is a smart charger, which means that it can detect the type of charge (voltage/power) that goes into the device(s) plugged up. This helps prevent overheating and overcharging that could potentially damage your devices. Not too mention this CHOETECH charger is fast! The quick smart charge is definitely the selling point for this charger.

Having 6 ports is very convenient. Personally, I have about at 3 devices that need a daily charge; my phone, bluetooth headset, and home wireless phone). With that said, in my house my wife also charges her phone, we plug up the iPad and the PS4 controller needs charged as well. Needless to say, there are many devices in my home that gets plugged up daily or every other day.

I like to have two desktop chargers setup at my desk and entertainment center. The desk has my PS4, phones, tablet, bluetooth keyboard, and other devices here and there that I use a desktop charger with. On my entertainment center there is a media device, phones and tablets get charged up. Both in my opinion make great places to install the desktop charger.

The build quality is rather nice compared to other companies chargers I have used. It has a matte finish and is compact in size. There is a small orange LED light to ensure that the charger is working and plugged into a power source. The cable is long enough to use on top of a 4 foot high entertainment center. The only thing I would change about this build is the bottom needs to have some rubber stoppers to help it stay in place and not slide around. Other than that, this thing works great and I would definitely recommend checking it out.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Johnmcl7:
I'm tempted by the QX1 as it has a flash and raw support plus it looks like it will fit in a pocket better with the likes of the 16-50mm compared to the Nex-6 however from what I recall of previous QX discussions, is the support in the box too small to attach it to the Z Ultra? In which case I have to buy either the tablet attachment pack or the ACX3?

Thanks,

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Johnmcl7:
That's not the question - as I mentioned in my first post, I'm aware of the ACX3 but it's expensive and difficult to get a hold of hence I was trying to find if it was possible use the QX1 without it as there's mixed comments about how large the adapter that comes with the QX1 is.

Unfortunately I never found out and decided to give up on the Z Ultra and go for the Note 4 instead to get a better camera.

Touch screen not working after two screen replacements

I replaced the screen assembly twice on my Galaxy S5, and both times, the screen isn't registering any of my touches.

First replacement I got on eBay, second one from iFixIt.

What could be the problem? I don't think TWO screens in a row are defective (pretty low probability), and I checked that the ribbon cable was all the way connected, so I'm running out of ideas?

One thing I noticed is that the back of the screen has a weird pattern almost like there's something in front of it that I need to peel off for it to make contact. Is that the case? I haven't peeled anything off, other than the obvious pieces plastic with tabs covering the home button, etc.
