The above advice is good, but not the whole story!

All PPC devices will show 'My ISP' or whatever your GPRS connection is called, in the Network Settings/Programs that connect to....' box

If you never want to use GPRS, then the dummy connection is a good workaround. If you do envisage needing GPRS at some point, then it may be better to go into the My ISP settings, and remove the network password. This will mean that any attempt at the device connecting to GPRS will ask for the password, so you will be in control of connections.

Even if the settings are kept at the default, the device should connect via the PC when cradled, and via WiFi when successfully connected to an access point.

WM5 and WM6 are built to use Activesync/WiFI/GPRS in that order of heirarchy. If you find GPRS is still being used, there is an error in either your A/S settings, or WiFI settings.

In ActiveSync on the PC make sure under connection settings, that the default connection is The Internet, rather than Auto.
[P3600 General] Mesquire:
Interesting.... not trying to dispute the information given but the 'My ISP' (note: not the dummy connection that I created) entry on my D810 or 818 Pro does not contain any setting, nor does my GPRS connection requires a username or a password to access - it's locked to my SIM so is there a way to obtain a *password prompt* so to speak without using a username (with which the GPRS connection to mobile phone operator's network will be disrupted)?

PS. What A/S or Wi-Fi parameters do I need to verify if my PPC is still connecting through GRPS and not Wi-Fi (or ActiveSync)? Thanks. It doesn't appear to be overriding this setting no matter what I do (and I have tried it on 3 different D810 units to 3 different mobile network operators):
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Maybe this is an operator/location specific issue with the Dopod?

If there is no username or password on the GPRS account, then it appears you are stymied when it comes to using the password 'workaround'

To check whether GPRS is being used, I suppose you could install a GPRS counter. Efficasoft GPRS Monitor is a small program and has a free trial. If you load it, and configure it to monitor all your GPRS connections, it should give you some hints as to how the connections are being used.

It may be that specific models have been 'modified' to use GPRS in preference. In UK, there is some evidence that the T-Mobile Compact III uses GPRS rather than ActiveSync (it doesn't have WiFi anyway).

It may also be worth unchecking 'Allow Wireless Connections when cradled' in the PC ActiveSync options.

Sorry I can't be more explicit!
[P3600 General] Mesquire:
Thanks anyway

I don't see much point in using a wireless connection when connected to a PC via ActiveSync (my D810 doesn't come with a cradle) so it looks like I'll continue with switching the network connection preference back and forth since it doesn't use my Wi-Fi or PC connection when set to connect to my mobile operator's network for Internet!!
[P3600 General] NeilM:
This may do the trick!

Bandswitch enables you to switch GPRS connections on/off by tapping a coloured bar. It also has a very useful band mode switch (GSM, 3G or Auto) for those seeing excessive battery drain on 3G.

Best of all, it's free!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ad0sm:
Hi, Newbie question.

I have a 2nd Gen Kindle Tate that I was looking into installing CM11 on. Up until recently I have managed ok with it being rooted and running apks and apps from Google Play.

Major issue at the moment where I seem to be stuck

Here's what I have done:

A few months ago I had updated the Firmware to 7.5.1.

I had rooted it using Saferoot (Busybox), which has worked fine.

I tried to install CM11 but after failed attempts I found out it couldnt with the current firmware so needed to downgrade to 7.2.3 (Using KFHD_SRT_v1.3.0 tool )

I had stupidly replaced the boot.img & recovery.img files without a backup (BIG BIG mistake i know!)

I wasnt able to boot into the OS anymore

I also tried to install TWRP & COTR using the KFU 0.9.9

Since it turned off I hadnt been able to turn it on since.

I have tried leaving on the charge for hours and still nothing (2A cable).

I have a fastboot cable.

Is there anything I can do or is it completely dead?

Read somewhere before that you can short the KF to make it boot (sort of like a PSP Pandora battery). if this is true any guidance on this.

perhaps a SkOrPn cable?...but cannot find one
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djskizo:
before you get too drastic. check adb drivers, a hard boot then plug in to pc

does your pc see the device at all when you plug it in? if so maybe try the KFfirstaide http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54274465&postcount=3416

or this one

doing the pin jump.

i got my other kindle into fastboot that way. but i didnt have a blank screen. and adb/fastboot still wont see it :(

im no guru. just at the point on that one that it didnt matter if it was bricked. i only noticed the other pins as the diagram kinda showed them in the same order. so i tried each one. lol

there is a group of 6 pins total.

power(no shut down. just on/off)* *

fastboot * *

Reboot/restart * *

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Dante565:
So I really like google dialer and have a Samsung s5. Now the new lollipop dialer or the google dialer 2.0/2.1 won't install on a tw ROM as it would appear. So I was thinking if I could make my own build from the source I could have the dialer I want without losing the tw features. So I have successfully clone the source to my PC and imported it into android studio as a project. Every time I try to build or try to produce an apk I have 31 errors stating ”no resource...” in the style.XML. I have tried to find a guide that would help me to build an apk from source with no avail. So I am curious to what I'm missing? Some direction would be greatly appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Do you have the Android sdk installed? Even then it wont install. You have to have it as a system APP and then you will lose the TW features of the dialer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Dante565:
Well I do have SDK installed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Ok and it is updated? I would track down the errors and just fix what is missing by comparing it to a pre-built apk
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suta:
Hi, I was using Samsung Galaxy phone before.. and Sony Xperia seem kinda complicated when it comes to root/installing recovery and custom rom. I have been facing some weird issue and hope someone could help clarity that why am I having these issue?

1. While I was on Samsung Galaxy, Before installing a custom rom I will always wipe everything(Include system) to minimize the chances of getting bugs. However on Sony Xperia when I tried doing the same, Wiping everything (Include System) and installing a custom rom name Xistence the phone stuck at boot screen. Only way I could get it work is by not wiping stuff when installing a custom rom. anyone can Explain why? is it because the custom rom is lack of a kernel and would required to use the existing one therefore I can't wipe anything on recovery?

2. am I only able to use fastboot to install stuff like (recovery etc) only if I have a unlocked bootloader?

.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josephnero:
1.Wiping is always good.which version were you on before flashing existence rom?

2.No you don't need unlocked bootloader for recovery or installing Stock based roms.but for CM or ASOPs you do.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] MJGiuffre:
Hello all,

I've been browsing the forums for a few days now trying to fix my issue, but nothing I have found seems to be of much help, so I have decided to register here myself and get some assistance directly.

So, I rooted my phone and flashed twrp and cyanogenmod. After several bugs and overall irritation, I have decided to just go back to stock recovery, ROM, etc. (After all, I am a mechanical engineer - software is not my forté.)

In attempting to unroot my device, however, it seems that I just messed things up even further.

Steps taken:

1) Rebooted device into fastboot

2) fastboot oem lock

3) Reboot into RUU mode (black screen w/ htc logo)

4) Ran RUU.exe

5) (bootloader) signature checking...

FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)

finished. total time: 35.173s

At this point, I thought that maybe it was because I was still S-ON so I was going to place rumrunner on the virtual SD. Now my PC won't recognize my phone, so I don't know how to flash rumrunner to go to S-OFF or if that's even the correct next step. So basically, I have bootloader and twrp, and that's it.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] MJGiuffre:
Ok so I got into twrp to try and flash any ROM but data wouldn't mount.

I wiped data through twrp, which allowed me to mount data

From here I could have copied a ROM to my virtual SD and flashed through twrp, but decided to give the RUU a try again.

This time I got ERROR [155].

Checked to make sure I had the right RUU for my CID, which I do, but I'm going to try an older RUU instead.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] MJGiuffre:
Since RUU wasn't working, I decided just to place the CM ROM onto the virtual SD and flash it. Finally have a phone that boots up and is running CM. Better than a paper weight, but still not a stock HTC One...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] grigoriisi:
wrong way

there is no ruu for your sofware, older one will not work its just how htc are made, try this ruu its the latest.( make sure you are not supercid before running it, it can mess up the phone) from your first post it looks like you are fine unless u changed it to supercid.

http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...06_10.46.1718.01L_release_424933_signed_2.exe

it should work at least it worked on mine

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 PM ----------

also u can try one of the guru resets that matches your software , or look for a stock unrooted nandroid for att htc one , u need the 5,12 sofware , older one may not work properly. also before runing a ruu make sure your bootloader is loked or relocked. good luck.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] claudio.94:
Hello everyone, I have a BIG problem on my Galaxy Nexus ("yakju maguro" (GSM/HSPA+) currently with 4.3 (JWR66Y) stock installed).

In the last few months I used AOSP Lollipop and my phone worked well. Few days ago it has restarted suddenly and contined to do it after random time... Then I flashed again the AOSP 5.1 but in the TeamWin recovery I noticed that my phone memory was more than 13 Gb, but my phone is the 8 Gb version! I checked online for a solution and I flashed the stock image to try a "reset" of the bug, but nothing happened: my phone still shows around 13 Gb. To test it, I copied up to 11 Gb of files and it worked, so the memory is really bigger than the previuos one (or at least it seems).

Now I'd like to know how can I fix this problem? If the phone will start again with freezes and reboot, what can I do?

I hope there's anyone with any suggestion... I have really no idea about what to do. Thanks to all that will try to help me, and excuse me for my poor english.

P.S.: here are 4 images that show the memory "bug":

I have been noticing that this has been happening since i updated to 5.0.2.

I also noticed that nobody else has ever reported that they have this kind of problem. My problem is that wherever an image or a picture appear, the screen seem to blur or it becomes scratchy. When i open the camera app and try to take a picture, the same happens. This has to be a software issue in the phone. Or maybe a hardware issue. But what surprises me is that when i upload the picture i just took from my phone to facebook or anywhere else, other people can see it clearly without any scratches or blur. So it seems that the image is only seen blured in my phone. I guess it is a problem with mu display as the picture or image file seems perfect when others see from their phones. I have googled many places but nobody else has this problem. I would be very hally if anyome could fix this problem asap.
