What I don't understand is the reason why an Oppo R5 is there even if there is no development so far...
[Oppo R5] colapticus0983:
Too all those wishing to change their Chinese R5 to the international R8106 rom

Hi this is exactly what happened to me. I did manage however to completely reflash the phone as an international r8106 instead of being the Chinese variant thus removing all Chinese applications and characters on the phone which was more oriented to the Chinese market.

Here's how to do it;):

1. Root your phone you using forceroot

(www3.zippyshare.com/v/ylWtMVbd/file.html)

2. Install the Rashr application from the market (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...r+apk&pcampaignid=APPU_1__Vw_VrCYDoPteZ-2grgE)

3. Download the r8106 stock recovery

(community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=41920&extra=)

4. Flash the recovery with rashr

5. Download Color OS v.2.0.1i

(community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=41914)

6. Reboot your phone into stock recovery (now r8106 recovery)

7. Wipe data and catch

8. Install zip (navigate to where your downloaded ROM is)

9. Flash the ROM

10. Reboot

11. Once rebooted you may get a notification saying "NV BACKUP FAILED" if this happens, simply dial *#268# on your phone's keypad and calibrate your nv parameters.

12. Enjoy :good:

* This is optional but you can also now re-root your phone using forceroot as previously mentioned and install twrp (https://dl.twrp.me/r5/) which will allow you to make a backup.

** Finally, this goes without saying but i'll say it anyways, this is completly at your own risk! I'm not responsible for any damages you do to your phone or if these instructions don't work for you. So its expected that you fully understand the complexities of flashing prior to doing this. Otherwise you may run a real risk of bricking your phone and making it completly useless.

Good luck and I hope this post helped someone.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] razore:
Hey guys,

unfortunately my 3-year old Razr died the other day. Battery has been an issue for the past few months where I had the battery completely drained 2 times but always got the device back to work. This time it's different though.

I shut down the Phone at aprox. 20% Battery to safe it from low charge. I have NEVER flashed a custom rom, the phone is purely stock. The phone wouldn't turn on the next time i tried. Initially , I had zero reaction. Then, I got at least the white LED when charging with the original adapter. Let it charge a few days. The white light would turn off after a few hours but the phone is still dead.

I replaced the battery with another (new) EB20 but still nothing. I bought a wall charger (1A) and still nothing. I even tried direct charging the battery for a few hours and still no effect. Also, every combination of Power+Volume buttons didnt work.

So i bought a factory cable but still didnt get any reaction. When hooked up to a computer via USB i have a "connecting" and "disconnecting" sound. Once the device was detected as OMAP 3340 but couldnt install it. The problem is that I dont even get the phone into fastboot mode.

On my research, I found these posts:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2055839

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2047750

I think this will be my last try and option, but i have no experience whatsoever with flashing and I find the description very hard to understand and follow. Is there maybe someone who can explain step by step what there is to install/do and in what order? This would be awesome.

Greets,

razore

Hi,

I'm not sure if it's normal for people to maintain their controllers, but it's something I've been doing as a kid with the commodore 64 (cleaning contact points).

I had a sticky analog stick out of the box, so I fixed it myself (casing screws no too tight causing the stick) , and I was curious if it could handle a 7" tablet on the travel clip:

http://xpcoin.com/2014/01/22/mad-catz-mojo-ctrlr-disassembled/

I've always had an issue with the L2 analog trigger which comes and goes.

At first I thought it was a Gameloft issue, because it only happened on their software (their games must have zero torrence on analog switches).

See my Gameloft Blitz Brigade video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0HzXYJn_t8

Well, I'm going to have to re do that one!

I've been getting into MC5 and noticed my L2 (zooming in/out randomly) issue getting worse over use.

Then I tried the retail CTLRLR and no L2 issue.

So I thought it might need 'fixing'.

I took it apart, pushed the side with the analog switch, tested it and put it back together and worked!

I also found out that the mojo's CTRLR micro USB port works as battery replacement, while the retail CTRLR didn't, interesting.

Hey guys,

First of all sorry for caps lock but it's really urgent. I had CM on my S3 I9300 and I tried to flash 4.0.4 stock ROM that i downloaded from Sammobile. It installed normaly but when the phone restarded after instalation, it got stuch at Samsung logo screen. I restored it to CM that i have previously backed up. After that i have no service, Odin can't recognize my phone. The biggest problem is that i have no service. It says it is Registered on Network but when i try to call someone it says Mobile network not available. When i try to send a message it says that it can't send it and it will send it when service becomes available. Pleasee guys help ! I need this to be fixed ASAP.

Thanks in advance !

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimboXXX:
I did something stupid. I've had my G3 only 2-3 weeks so am not familiar with LG's system. Browsing the internal SD card on Windows (MTP) the internal storage mounting point 0/storage/emulated is actually displayed as a folder on the internal SD: This PC\G3\Internal storage\storage\emulated.

(I confused this folder with a sub-folder I had created myself and coincidentally called the same name.) The folder in Windows shows as empty. I deleted it.

The result: it deletes your entire internal and external SD cards.

I was using stock V20H. (Probably AOSP roms use different mount points ??)

I can't find any thread mentioning this, so I'm posting as a warning.

Looks like my proximity sensor is well and fully borked. Light sensor works, but I'm getting zero input from the prox sensor (per sensorbox test).

q1: is there anyway to force the screen to stay on when placing / taking a call? Right now when I place a call, the screen blacks out, and I can't hang up / access the dialer, etc... must shut down the phone.

Q2: is it possible to replace the prox sensor? it looks like it's soldiered to the board.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjb:
I was a fan of Textra early on. However, I don't understand why they continue to use their own database for sent messages. They used to only keep sent messages in their database thus preventing you from doing backups. They now copy sent messages from their database to the Android database so backups and restores work fine. If you don't mind the extra space used it is a good app. I guess they do it for performance though I don't see any difference between their app and other messaging apps.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DuceEnd:
I've been given an older gps receiver that connects to a pc via usb. The driver used in that instance is a usb to serial driver and ends up connecting to one of the COM ports. I was wondering if it may be possible to connect the receiver to my Wizard. I've got an adapter that will enable me to at least plug the receiver into my phone, but I'm not really sure how to get the phone to recognize the receiver.

Does anyone know of an app that will allow me to use the mini usb port as a serial port in any way. I know this may be a long shot, but wanted to try. I can try to write something myself in C# if need be to intercept the messages, but I don't really know how to receive those messages through a COM port on the phone. Thanks!!!

By the way, I'm using an unlocked 8125, running WM6 Most Beautiful.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] AsGF2MX:
The problem is actually the Wizard doesn't have a USB Host so the RS232 to USB adapter you might be thinking of won't work here. As for getting it to work with the PC, perhaps if the PC is providing the GPS as a service?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DuceEnd:
I see. I've got it working on the PC, but could probably write something to get it to the phone, but might be a little pointless if I'm already connected to a laptop.

So, it looks like the only way to connect a peripheral to the Wizard is through Bluetooth. Think that is a fair assessment?

Yup. There are a few threads about that also. :)

I have just spoken to the UK Samsung support and they said I should get it on 27th April and to phone them if I don't get it.
