[Nexus 4 General] xantonin:
Hey all, the OTA for 5.1.1 just popped up for me, but I have a custom recovery.

The way I previously have updated my device is by downloading the image from Google...

Extracting the image zip

Booting to fastboot

Flashing all but the Userdata

It's basically like running the flashall script without the user data flashing. I have manually loop mounted the user data.img file to check if it has anything since it's a larger image file, but it turns out to be completely empty and just a space holder for the partition it seems. Same for cache. So leaving it out is fine.

When I do this, I don't even use the "-u" flag for fastboot, would that be better?

This has worked so far, but I see it seems the more popular way is by downloading the OTA and sideloading it.

What's the difference between these two functions? Which is better?
[Nexus 4 General] steviemch:
I personally haven't sideloaded an ota in ages, preferring to fastboot flash the stock .img when an update appears. I flash so much on my phone that I like to start fresh for every update to clear out the junk I guess. As to what's better, I guess that's dependant on the needs and experience of the user.
[Nexus 4 General] xantonin:
Yes, but you can fastboot flash it without flashing the user data if you don't want to start fresh. I imagine this is similar to doing an OTA but I'd like to know the technical differences.

Maybe I'll have to tear apart an OTA... I was hoping someone had done this already.

Hello everyone.

I was replacing my device's lcd when I unfortunately broke the power button flat cable. Do you have any ideas about where I can find this kind of spare part? I'm pretty good at soldering, so replacing it won't be a problem for me.

Thanks in advance,

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Hey guys, I just did a factory reset because I was told that it may help with some battery issues. I did a backup in CWM and also one through Titanium. I wanted to use Titanium to restore but it kept hanging so I did a restore through CWM instead. Everything seems fine except that it can't seem to recognise my fingerprint anymore. I can still unlock the lockscreen with my backup password. However, when I try to use the backup password to edit my fingerprint in the settings, it says that my backup password is invalid! How can that be when I JUST used it to unlock the screen? Any advice would be much appreciated.

By the way, if it's true that a factory reset might help with the battery life, would restoring from CWM make any difference or did it just return it to its previous state?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cerisu:
For a while ago i did restore too and fingerprint did not work. As i know the restore whipes fingerprint data. So only solution is to flash whole rom angain or do factory reset and start at the begining.

As i heard, the factory reset might help with battery life. But if you do a reset, then your fingerprint broblem is solved.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
I'm having trouble locating a belt holster for the idol 3. I found 1 seller on ebay and for whatever reason I can't purchase from that seller so can someone recommend some other phones that are similar in size where their holster might work with the idol 3 (preferably with the cheap ebay transparent TPU case).

Thanks for your time!
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macallik:
I've heard comparisons with the iPhone6+. Might wants to check the device specs to be sure though. Any local cellphone store or Best Buy should be able to help you. Or you can just eyeball the phone case rack to see what is nearby to your idol 3 size and then go to eBay
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Thanks..the phone is arriving tomorrow so I'll be able to actually test fit etc then. I was trying to collect screen protector's, case and belt holster ahead of time but they shipped it "faster" than expected...they took their time shipping it but then shipped it next day delivery.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Just a followup that it looks like the iphone 6 plus as well as the alcatel onenote one have similar footprints so their cases should allow both the phone and a case without issue...I picked up one from each phone type. There are also some "hard cases" on ebay now.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edchuy:
Amazon Belt Holster options for Idol 3

I actually just got the Idol 3 myself a couple of days ago. Anyway, regarding the holster question you can find some options here (some of the results that aren't for the Idol 3, others don't have a belt clip):

In Amazon search for "Alcatel onetouch idol 3 holster 5.5 belt"

Two types of holsters are being offered there by different merchants:

- leather pouch holster that can either be horizontally or vertically oriented

- armor style cases that have a belt clip that can swivel and have a built-in kickstand

I'm personally considering the second option. The thing that bothers me, though, is that many of those merchants take up to 3 weeks or more for delivery, which make me suspect they are some Chinese distributors! :mad:

Regarding the comparisons to the iPhone 6, it is no coincidence that Alcatel choose 4.7" and 5.5" screens sizes to compete directly with Apple, in those terms.

So did decide on any one of them? I have tried to look outside of Amazon with no luck whatsoever.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
They are much cheaper on ebay....around $3-7 vs 12+ on amazon. I went with these:

US Seller using Iphone 6 plus as model: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281679642723

US $3.51

US Seller using Oneplus 1+ as model: http://www.ebay.com/itm/391102343482 (dimensions of case was identical for it and iphone 6 plus so went with the alcatel) US $6.95

Hong Kong: I tossed this in for good measure... http://www.ebay.com/itm/311369840681 [ Hard Matte Snap-On Cover Case For Alcatel Idol 3 5.5 Inch ]

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edchuy:
Reply to Amazon Belt Holster options for Idol 3

Yes, they tend to be cheaper [MENTION=248044]eBay[/MENTION], but there aren't any specific ones for the Alcatel Idol 3 there yet. I'm concerned that the cutout for the buttons and connector won't be the right ones for it, especially given the relatively odd placement of the power button, which I have actually become used to.

Amazon does have them since they seem to be the only place other than Ebay where you can get the smartphone for now. Same thing for other accessories for it. Given that I got the Idol 3 for $199.99 shipped, I think I'd rather pay a bit more and get the case I want for it. Even I have to have wait for it a bit longer ... I'm probably going with the red or blue Blue Aurora holster case. Unless I see something better before they become available.

Animated HTC Sense Weather​

This is not my work and this can be found at

This Forum

by [MENTION=753984]xpirit[/MENTION]. Go over and thank him

The reason I made this forum was because the forum has an explanation to use the HTC Launcher as well as may of the HTC features to include blinkfeed which functions great. But all I really wanted was the weather and it's really simple. I did some playing around to see exactly what I needed to get it to function.

Installation:

1. Download this zip file

2. Download the Weather.apk and HtcServicePack.apk ONLY!! There are 2 others you will see in Troubleshooting Section. APK files are attached to this Forum

3. Copy the APKs to your SD Card

4. Install APKs

5. Extract zip File

6. Place the weather folder extracted from the zip inside /sdcard/Android (Important - This makes the Animations work)

7. Reboot the phone and enjoy

It will determine location if you have wifi / battery saving GPS enabled. It all works great for me. Hope this is something people actually want.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

If you are having issues with Location, ensure that it is actually enabled. Also, open weather in the app drawer, click the 3 dot menu in the top right and ensure Auto detect my location is on. Do not add Weather to be blocked by servicely or disable location requests with AP OPs. See Screen Shots below to help with Troubleshooting

If You are still having problems after doing the following you see in the pictures:

1. Ensuring Location services is running

2. Opening weather to verify auto detect is enabled

Do The Following:

1. Go to Settings

2. Accounts

3. Add HTC Weather Service

4. Change the Sync Frequency to Whatever You Want

LAST RESORT:

Download the HtcLocationServicesSetting.apk and LocationPicker.apk from attached to this Thread and install them just like the First 2!!!

Good Luck!!!

I use the Beautiful Widgets and associate taping the weather which launches the weather itself. You can also use that for the 5 day forecast widget from beautiful widgets, set Beautiful widgets to use accuweather like HTC and boom.

Bear Haven is a great indie horror game where you have to survive scary nights.

Please note that it is not yet another "five nights at freddy's" clone.

You don't have just to watch at cameras as a night security guard, but you can freely walk around and interact with the environment.

Participate in atmospheric and intriguing nightmare adventure.

Fix broken electricity and hide from angry bears so they couldn't catch you.

Run if something goes wrong. Then close the door and turn of the light. The phone shouldn't ring and TV shouldn't work while you are hiding. Then you can survive the first scary night!

Play one of the best free horror games now!

Fellow XDA buddies...please help me on this one!

My colleague is locked out of his Galaxy S4 running Lollipop that has a pin / password lock that he inadvertently set and doesn't know what it was set to

We've Tried:

- Android Device Manager: After getting on the phone with a Samsung Mobile Tech and having them conference in a Google Tech... getting out of a pin lock screen is no longer compatible with ADM on Lollipop as it doesn't display the password input without first unlocking the phone via pin ...

- Samsung Find My Mobile: He never setup the Samsung Account/App on his phone before the forgotten pin issue ...

- Lollipop doesn't seem to have any vulnerabilities / workarounds to get past the lock screen when pin locked ...

- I have tried to use the Stock Recovery to apply the files suggested here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2308130 and here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/general/bypass-t3035553 and cann't get past the Signature Verification ...

- USB Debugging was never enabled so the adb exploits I found that involve SQLite or removing the key file do not work ...

- I have exhausted all the methods here because it doesn't have have root access or a custom recovery installed http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2620456

So without USB Debugging, Root or a Custom Recover (which requires root it seems), we are stuck!

I think the best bet would be to enable USB Debugging somehow while locked or from an upload we can make through the Stock Recovery or ODIN...

We would greatly appreciate if anyone can help!

Thank you,

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Usually the only option is a reset from recovery. Which will erase all user data. Pics, files... Etc.

That's the point of the pin lock... To protect your privacy mostly.

I have not heard of any other way to bypass the pin lock. Well, flashing firmware again works on most devices, but same result. All user data gone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Flashing a new ROM through Odin I don't believe will work. If I recall correctly Odin doesn't wipe data when installing. Therefore, the only real option is a factory reset if you don't wish to root or install a custom recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
The only thing that you can save is files stored on the internal storage.

Apps, sms, contacts etc are gone. That is if you didn't make any backups.

If you want to save the files on your internal storage:

- Flash custom recovery (twrp)

- Wipe /system partition.

- Reflash a rom.
