[Asus Transformer TF700] nate39:
I am thinking about upgrading to a newer tablet. My question is, is there a way to back up the data on games, etc. so I can continue where I am on my new tablet without having to root it and use titanium back up? I know how to do this if both tablets are rooted but is there a program that will transfer the data of apps without rooting, just in case I don't want to root right off the bat? thanks

Hello,

I know that Artemis has its own internal GPS.

But, it is possible to use external GPS?

Because in some car models, there is such "coating" in the front that sometimes very difficult to penetrate by the GPS signal.

My friend has tried many external GPS for his Peugeout 307 and the only one which is working fine is Rikaline GPS.

Thanks for any info.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] kinski:
sure!

If you will have a look into the manual or at the backside of the Artemis, You will find the external gps antenna connector.

http://www.expansys.de/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=147380

Otherwise, You can also use an external bluetooth gps mouse
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] mikealder:
You can use an external Bluetooth GPS device with the Artemis, although I would explore using an external aerial fitted to the Artemis first as these are less costly, most cars fitted with the "Problem" glass have a small area behind the rear view mirror that is not coated. So all yo do is fit the external aerial to the back of the mirror, route the wire around the edge of the screen (hidden for a better looking installation) and it will work without needing the Bluetooth. Have a look for part number 36H00352-00M the HTC Artemis P3300 full edition with TomTom maps comes supplied with this in the box - Mike
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2black101:
Hi guys

Basically I need to send my device into HTC for repair. It is S-OFF and I have a stock HTC European _001 rom on it. I really really need to restore to the UK O2_001 stock rom and get back to S-ON to avoid any possible issues with the warranty.

The problem is I can't find any O2 UK zips or nandroid backups to flash. For some reason the RUU files do not work for me, and I really don't have the time to be troubleshooting this.

I would really appreciate it if someone could upload a nandroid backup that I can use very soon? Otherwise I'll need to stick with the unbranded HTC Europe rom and risk them knowing I've unlocked the device.

Thanks for any help.

but as mentioned in my guide, i don't encourage going s-off to s-on on newer firmware
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fade2black101:
Hello, thanks for that

Unfortunately I can't seem to downgrade the bootloader. I'm on 1.61.

Not entirely sure what to do now.. Will it be possible to achieve S-ON again and lock the bootloader without downgrading the hboot?

I don't really have time to spend ages on this, as the phone will be getting collected on Friday and I'm busy with work. I also don't really have time to troubleshoot the 100000 reasons why RUU.exe files aren't working for me and why I can't downgrade the bootloader. May just have to send it in unlocked and hope for the best.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:

And yes I did. And I plan to use it again when I get phone back. Let me know your suggestion and I'll give it a go when I have some time :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
okay cool, i only asked because sunshine will work again (without needing to pay again), in case that infamous "tamper detected - rebooting" happens (shouldnt in your case but just in case it does)

gimme a few minutes, and i'll post instructions with links....

Thanks :)

I will check this out tomorrow when I have some time
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
okay, should be easy enough:

1) download Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0.zip and put it on your virtual storage

2) download 4.19.401.9-TWRP2633_combined_nowipe.zip

if need be change cid to a compatible one:

fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader

flash firmware

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip 4.19.401.9-TWRP2633_combined_nowipe.zip
fastboot flash zip 4.19.401.9-TWRP2633_combined_nowipe.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader

set back O2 UK cid:

fastboot oem writecid O2___001
fastboot reboot-bootloader

3) go to RECOVERY (it should be TWRP 2.6.3.3 from the file above) and run the Bootloader Reset

--> remove TAMPERED

--> set LOCKED

4) go back to bootloader, and check it says LOCKED, and no more TAMPERED

5) download RUU_4.20.206.16.EXE

and run it

(if it "exits" for some unknown reason, make sure you have this installed vcredist)

6) reboot the phone to make sure it boots up fine, do not take OTA updates

7) if you really insist, go s-on

fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

8) reboot three times (do not take any OTAs, especially above 6.xx), and make sure no TAMPERED is triggered

You're a star! Thank you so much for that. After hours spent fumbling about I spent 20 minutes following your instructions today and everything worked perfectly. The Visual C++ file you suggested did the trick too, even after I installed several other (wrong ones) yesterday. Really happy this is finally sorted :)

Just a quick question. I haven't gone back to S-ON yet. I think it may not be neccessary for the warranty, but maybe I shouldn't risk it as I can always just gain S-OFF again via Sunshine once I get the phone back (unless they inexplicably change the motherboard). I'm wondering if there is a high risk of bricking my device if I run that S-ON command?

Cheers once again!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
:cowboy::cowboy:

there's no risk in bricking using that "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" command to set s-on; the RUU would have set everything back to stock; if in the unlikely event the "TAMPERED" comes back, you'll need to s-off again, and use my guide with the 1.xx RUU + nandroid method

as for sending it in S-OFF, it's really country/carrier/service centre/person specific.... from what i've seen UK is one of the most tolerant countries (some people have even sent the phone in with tamperd and running a custom rom, and still got the camera fixed)

but it's your call, i cant really say for sure how they would react.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA Visitor:
So i have a customer that has bought a product from us. This product takes data from your boat (position, speed, wind, depth etc.) and transfers this over WiFi to wireless devices. There are apps that can make use of this information to turn your device into a navigation tool. My customer has installed this on his boat and is trying to connect his tablet to it. As there is no internet from this source, the Tablet will connect to the hotspot and then immediately disconnect. This is due to the software on the tablet deeming the source not good enough and will say "Avoided due to poor internet connection".

He let me know his fault and I looked through my settings on my Z2 tablet, which is the WiFi/LTE version (SGP521), i found an option to stop my tablet disconnecting. I called my customer and guided him to this option, only it wasn't there for him. I have asked him to update his tablet to the latest version, but still no option is found.

Sony have been very unhelpful, they said to find a third party app, i found one, but it requires rooting, which i cant ask my customer to do.

I told Sony this and asked if they can recommend something. They said no and that was the end of our conversation. Very helpful.

I know that our product is not the only one that generates a hotspot without an internet connection. I think the GoPro works the same way.

So my question really is, does anyone know a non-root way of connecting to this? Whether its an app or a hidden setting somewhere.

Thank you very much for your help.

I have iFive 3GS tablet running Android KitKat 4.4.2 (FW version 2.0.3).

The device has a "16GB" of storage, and I have a 16 GB sdcard.

SDCARD is mounted at /storage/sdcard0 and is known in settings as SD CARD

Internal storage is mounted at /storage/sdcard1 and is known in settings as Phone Storage

The strange thing is that Settings->Storage shows the same size of Applications on both SD CARD and Phone Storage - check the screenshots.

Is it only a bug in the settings menu or do apps take space on both storages. Is there a way to disable this behavior?

I can provide more information if needed.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] cxhb:
A little background and info before I begin- The Nexus 7 in question was running absolutely stock unrooted Android 5.0.2. Recently the battery was going downhill FAST with spikes on the battery graph as well as falling from ~35% to 5% instantly so I figured I would look for a new battery. There weren't many batteries out there that I was too impressed with (at least the reviews of said batteries certainly led me away from them) so I figured I would at least try Asus and see if they have a battery replacement service. They do, and mentioned that I will lose all data on the device. In an attempt to make their lives easier I asked if they would like me to do a factory reset for them, customer service representative said yeah that would be great.

SO... the real issue: I do the factory reset, and it stays on the "erasing..." image for 3+hrs, I was a little concerned but figured my best bet was to give it a little longer and see what it does. I go back to it ~30mins later and it looks as though it somehow got into recovery mode (stock recovery mode) and stayed there. Because I was curious (and impatient) I interrupted it and performed the following from this point:

erased cache from stock recovery

rebooted into fastboot menu

tried to reflash using the .bat file included in the nexus factory images from google but this failed on writing 'boot'.

tried then erasing boot, bootloader, system, cache, userdata- all failed.

new error includes "write failed" error.

on ANOTHER attempt to erase, any attempt to do so states that the partition does not exist (for all images/partitions).

So... has anyone experienced any write failed issues before? I cant erase anything OR write now apparently...

Hi all.

I just came to a big problem. Yesterday my and my girlfriends SGS neo i9301i phones stopped to connect to carrier network and began to say only emergency calls/not connected to network. I found similar posts but found something what could help but still dont know what should I do as my problem is kinda different.

My IMEI havent changed, I bought phone unlocked straight from carrier. I rooted and installed custom roms on my i9301i but not on her.

So right now neither I or she can use our phones as both have the same problem.

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clippert:
Hi,

I have a dual sim Honor 6 that has been imported from China.

I bought the phone for this set up - 4g data card in sim 1 for data only (can get 90 days 6gb for £15.00) and a cheap 3g card in slot 2 for calls and messages at £3.75 a month. total outlay for 4g, calls and messages = £8.75 a month which suits my needs very well.

I got my data card yesterday and registered it with the provider.

This is the problem I have - neither of my sims works well at all in slot 2 for data - speeds of 0.12Mbps on each card at best.

When I have each sim individually in slot 1 without the other card present I get 50Mbps on the 4g data card and 13Mbps on my 3g card.

When I then introduce my 3g card into slot 2 to sit along side the 4g data card that is in slot one the 4g speed drops from 50Mbps down to 4Mbps.

Clearly, what I would like is to get 50Mbps and take texts and calls on my 3g card and I am stumped as to why this is not happening :(

Has anyone had a similar experience or even not and have the knowledge of how to fix this problem?

I've contacted Honor UK and they politely said that they can't/won't help as it is a Chinese import. My data and telephony providers have no idea and suggest that there is an issue with the phone.

Cheers

Nigel
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryd3r89:
Second sim slot supports 2g only. That means EDGE network speeds, that translates into a maximum 238kbps theoretically.

Hope this helps
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clippert:
Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I'm coming to the conclusion after doing some more digging that the 3g card that i have in slot 2 is conflicting with the 4g card in slot 1.

I think what I need to do now is get a 2g only card and test that along side the 4g card.

That's my next problem - do any providers do 2g only cards as nearly all plans these days have some sort of data attached to them.

Can the mobile provider switch off the data part of the 3g card if i can't get hold of a 2g card?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryd3r89:
As far as I know, it doesn't matter what kind of sim card do you use. If the sim is in the second slot, phone will automatically use 2g for network data and calls.

If you're hoping for better data speeds on second sim card, it's not possible using this phone.

Firstly, welcome to the Forum

1-Sync your mobile with your PC

2-(Assuming the Cab File is on your PC). Drag this file to a folder on your mobile, eg /Program Files.

3-Using File Explorer, from your mobile, locate this file and run it on your mobile. This will auto install the file.

Secondly, you must Read the WIKI before you decide to install any ROM. This will eliminate the need to ask questions that have already been covered on the subject. MR VANX has written an excellent guide on upgrading your ROM, see last post above your request, and the guide is regularly updated. (thanks for all your good work MR VANX).

I am also fairly new to upgrading and extensively read the guide and followed all instructions. I have now successfully uploaded many ROM's. (Many thanks to all the CHEFS for their dedication and commitment, please keep the ROM's coming).
