[Samsung Infuse 4G] RemiChartier:
My main issue is to get the Gingerbread bootloaders, it is blocking anything I do.

Would you also still have access to those bootloaders and be able to share them again for Samsung Infuse, like they are described in the original thread ? :

"1.) I have rainbow distortion in recovery or in the boot animation. How can I get Gingerbread bootloaders to fix this?:

You can download THIS .rar file, extract using 7zip, and flash the tar.md5 package in Odin (use the pda slot). Flashing Gingerbread bootloaders will correct rainbow distortion in recovery and in the boot animation. "

Thanks in advance,

Hello! I just root my samsung gaxy ace plus. What to do next? Thank's! :confused:
[XDA Assist] :
Hi

No one can a answer this. You rooted your device. Why? Decide why you did and that is what you should do next if it's possible. ?

If you have no idea why you rooted... You likely didn't need to.

I suggest you read up on anything you can and learn exactly what root is and how it can help..... Or hurt. And it can cause serious problems if you try things without understanding what you're doing.... So read read read first.

Here is your device section,

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-ace-plus

I suggest reading through general and Q&A sections a bit for the Ace plus, especially any indexes, guides, tutorials and FAQs threads and learn what you can do. ?

Any further questions or issues can be asked about in your Q&A section.

Good luck!

WM6 for hp ipaq h6340

It is possible to flash this device with the new wm6? And if it is, which rom have to download?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eluth:
I think the h6340 like the h65xx will never work WM5 or WM6.

They only have 64 Mb of flash.

The rational is simple. As WM5/WM6 have persistent memory (where WM2003 didn't), they require a minimum of 128 MB flash when you have 64MB of RAM.

Sorry for the bad news...

[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] scatterthought:
Hi all,

This is my first post here, following my upgrade from a venerable Nexus 7 (2012) to a Tab S 8.4 in November. I'm grateful for the numerous posts in the XDA community that instructed me on things such as disabling the capacitive buttons, so I thought I'd share some feedback on a couple of cases for which I don't see much discussion.

I started out with a rooCase Origami that I purchased from Amazon, because I wanted the ability to stand the tablet in portrait mode while keeping a reasonably slim profile. I really liked that the case added minimal bulk to the tablet, but the floppy, multi-fold cover was annoying, mostly because the magnets couldn't hold it closed. Also, the tablet didn't stand too well in portrait mode (tap a little too hard on the screen and the kickstand would give away). So, I returned the Origami in favour of a GearIT 360 spinner (also via Amazon).

The GearIT case has proven to be perfect for my needs. The tablet is very secure in the cradle, but pops out easily when you need it (which is necessary to access the card slots). The speakers, camera, ports, and IR blaster are fully exposed, and the camera is deeply recessed so it'll be hard to scratch the lens. The exterior is a twill fabric that's really nice to grip, and the magnets are reliable for waking the tablet and keeping the cover closed. As well, the cover folds in such a way that the soft inside rarely touches other surfaces (unless you fold it back like a magazine), so it won't leave dirt and debris on your screen. I've also been pleasantly surprised that the case hasn't attracted much cat hair (which is easy to clean off with a sticky roller or tape).

The 360-degree rotation enables you to stand the case in a variety of ways while maintaining a surprisingly slim profile for the tablet, and the best part is that you can properly use all of the angles available to you. With non-rotating cases (such as the Origami and Samsung Book Cover), you sometimes find that the screen will be upside down in landscape mode (when apps only rotate in one direction). You can solve this with an app to force screen rotation, but with the GearIT you just turn the tablet around 180 degrees. This also means that the power/volume keys are always on the top when in landscape mode. One of my favorite ways to use the case is to fold it into landscape typing mode (lowest angle), then rotate the tablet into portrait mode. It's the same effect as propping up one end of the tablet on a book.

After about five weeks of daily use, the case still feels solid. The folds are definitely looser than when I first got it, but that's to be expected given how often they're flexed. The rotating hinge ratchets so that your tablet doesn't swing around at will, and it's still nice and tight.

Perhaps the only thing I don't like is that the chrome trim doesn't match the bronze trim on the tablet. Although if I had a choice, I would have taken chrome over bronze...

Cheers!

Thanks Alray! Would you mind telling a noob like me the terminal commands for unlocking thebootloader once I have skd and fast boot?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
depending how you have set up your sdk and if your fastboot file is named "fastboot-mac"

fastboot oem get_identifier_token

or

fastboot-mac oem get_identifier_token

you may also need to add ./ before your commands

e.g

./fastboot oem get_identifier_token

or

./fastboot-mac oem get_identifier_token

once you have your token, copy and paste it at http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ (create an account first at www.htcdev.com)

Then they will send you an Unlock_code.bin file at your e-mail, download it and save it in the same folder where you have fastboot and adb installed.

fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

or add the ./ or -mac as required. Don't forget the capital U of Unlock_code.bin

just to inform the good droid users out there that blade buddy version 1.28 to 142/3 doesn't do what it advertises also the support website closed and you will not succeed in sending email to the sales@droidgram and will receive error.

blade buddy states it can unlock certain blade mobiles but to date me and my friends have tried 16 different ZTE from blade, blade2 /3 and V blade L2 also kis/pro/3 etc and to date we haven't succeed to have the unlock option as it doesnt appear in menu.

all handsets were rooted, had highest busy box, full permission also had smart tools plus all paid apps but as yet not one unlocked handsets all handsets are from different networks and varying roms what are we doing wrong.

is there anything to worry about as the site been down for months if site closed I am out of pocket by many pounds as all are looking at me for solution also the advertised orange and Vodafone handsets that blade buddy meant to unlock also doesn't work hope this helps someone before they waste money if someone can solve this issue I will take this post down

As a user of iPhones before, i liked a split-focus function (this is when you have separate points for focus and exposure).

Have any of you know good apps with this function?

Or G3 doesn't support it?

I would like to know if there is a way to force the menu button to show on the navbar for lollipop roms. I like a couple lollipop roms but not having the menu button is a real killer for me. Or if there is a way to change recents to menu that would be good too. A zip or instructions would be very helpful. On KitKat and older builds I usually changed it in one of the files but I can't seem to find it on lollipop.

hi everyone, ok iv succesfully managed to flash my new xda exec with jwrights rom (thankyou very much, im loving it!) what im curious about is, i have a rough idea CAB files are programs, but how do i install them exactly? also, i keep reading about registry tweaks, what are they and how do i do them? and finally, iv been playing with the voice command program, and it doesnt seem to work properly all the time, when i ask it to call someone it just shows me there nuame and number then goes back to today screen, is there another program i could install, or maybe im just doing it wrong!!

thankyou very much
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Confucious:
Cab files are just run on your device - just double click threm and they will ask you wether to insyall in memory or storage caqrd, most are fine on the card but anything that runs on startup (eg today plugins) can cause problems if not imstalled on the device.

You need a registry editor to edit the registry, there are a few free ones but I use resco which comes with resco explorer.

For general WM questions head over to Modaco - this forum is for ROM hackers amd ROM related queries and Modaco is for general PPC and SmartPhone user queries.

Besides buying the network unlocks is there a way to unlock my phone running Candy 0.9 to use here in Thailand while I'm on vacation.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dudethisblows:
So I have a T Mobile S3 and yesterday I tried to get it running a little quicker. It didn't quite go as planned =/

I used cf autoroot to root the phone, worked fine. had CWM all set. I installed dandroid first, but WiFi didn't want to play nice so I figured I'd just go with my second choice and went with PAC 4.4.4.RC-1. I think I was happier without WiFi - all of a sudden I couldn't install ANYTHING because I kept getting the (apparently insanely common) E: signature verification error. I can't get any google apps to install, can't even flash back to stock. I even had issues getting Odin to recognize the phone at all for a bit, but I've gotten that sorted at least.

Anyway, the phone 'works' more or less, I just appear to only have access to the factory recovery - no matter what I do, I can't seem to get around the signature verification error. I've tried what feels like twelve different ways to install CWM, but no luck. What am I missing? Why can't I even get back to stock?

I've read hundreds of pages in dozens of threads but nothing I've tried has worked. I usually do so well with technology - I'm kind of the dork chick in my circle of friends - and this is really getting frustrating. PLEASE, ask me anything you think might help point me in the right direction.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjal:
I have had the phone for a while now but suddenly new contacts I create one the phone won't save the contact name. All other details like phone, email and phonetic name will save fine. When that happens the name is stored as "nullnull". I'm not sure if it's related as I didn't notice it right away but I updated to 23.0.1.A.5.77 a while back.

I use Fruux for contact sync and am using their sync app. In Fruux I can see the contact fine showing "no name" and adding a name there saves fine, then syncing the change to the phone works fine and now I can see the name in the phone.

Things I have done:

-Deleted fruux sync account on phone and in fruux

-Deleted fruux app

-Wiped phone cache using the volume up and power button trick. I did get the three vibrates but not sure that did anything as the phone booted right in quick and I didn't see it rebuilding app data.

-Installed the Fruux app

-Made a new sync account in fruux and added that to the phone, brought in all contacts fine.

-Made another new fresh contact, again the name didn't save.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjal:
Looks like it's Sony's problem, I installed another contacts app and I don't have problems saving the name to new contacts.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allofmex:
I confirm, it's Sony problem. (see https://davdroid.bitfire.at/faq/entry/sony-contact-editor-problems/)

Background: It seems to affect all Sync Adapter. In case you are using a CardDav Server (maybe NextCloud or Baikal) together with a CardDav Sync Adapter app (for example DAVdroid or CardDAV-Sync): If you add a new contact using stock Contacts app, the name you enter in the fullname field will NOT be saved. It appears as "nullnull" or empty or others in your carddav server. The name gets LOST, so its useless. (It seems to work sometimes if you add the names in the seperate firstname/lastname fields, but thats not a solution because its easily forgotten)

Seems, it's fixed in recent devices/updates (Tablet Z4 on Android 7.0 works correct). But this will not help owner of older devices (my Z1compact is affected, Tablet Z, Z3compact seems too).

Only know solution is, as mentioned before, using a third party contacts app that IS NOT using the systems "add contact" dialog (!). (many are using the system dialog, than you have the same problem)

I use True Phone Dialer & Contacts. It brings its own "Add Contacts" dialog, fullname is handled correctly. (I'm using SyncAdapter opensync, almost same as DAVdroid, but you can select more than only one adressbook per server (I don't get this limitation in DAVdroid :( ) )

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

Here an instruction how to replace Sonys stock contacts app (root needed!):

Choose you third party phonebook/contacts app (as mentioned before I tested it with True Phone Dialer & Contacts). Test that is is not using stock dialog (add a contact, the dialog where you add name/phone/email should look different then if you add it from stock app).

(maybe not needed: go to Android settings -> apps -> Contacts and clear "Open by default" settings for stock app)

Connect to phone by adb (should work in a terminal app too)

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
mv /system/priv-app/Phonebook/Phonebook.apk /system/priv-app/Phonebook/Phonebook.apk.bak
mount -o ro,remount /system

Reboot phone

Stock contacts app should not be visible anymore in app drawer, so you cannot accidentally use the wrong app, choose your new app as "use always" when you are asked next.

In case of problems (and maybe before you update Android), just rename Phonebook.apk.bak back to Phonebook.apk .

I've been trying to find the best non in-ear (ear canal) earbud option for the Z3 and given price and performance it would seem that Apple may offer the best sound quality that also has a microphone and a remote control option. (Sennheiser doesn't appear to make an earbud option with full remote and mic, just remote volume.)

Can anyone confirm whether Apples mic and remote both work with the Z3? How is the sound quality?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] XQC:
Apple earphones, or any earphone designed for iOS for that matter, only "support" the middle button to control pause / skip tracks or answering calls. The microphone works too.

The two volume buttons are not supported by any Android phone and are without function.

The only supported Android headsets with 3 buttons that I know of are HTC E240 and E242, but they are in-ear.

Another solution would be a bluetooth earphones.
