[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mamda:
Hi there,

I have a Pantech Vega Iron IM-A870L that is suffering from Baseband Version Unknown issue.

By now I am pretty sure that it is a hardware fault and the baseband chip is gone.

I just want to use it as a none GSM device, but if I let it on for a while, it takes battery juice pretty quick. Like 30% gone in just 3 hrs idle (no usage). The batter stats show that "Android System" is responsible.

Also the cell is working very slow and hangs on mobile network related pages. Like if I try to view mobile network settings etc. If I press power button to turn of screen, I cannot turn it back on until upto 5 mins, it just wont turn the screen on, because I guess at this event too it tries to access the baseband.

In the UMTS menu secret page ##7593#, I get a message something like "rild is not reachable".

When I go to info secret menu *#*#4636#*#* and then Phone Information, it shows a white screen then black screen and no activity. I can press the back and home buttons to activate the task manager though and kill this page.

I understand this is because it keeps on trying to access baseband and it does not find it.

I have two questions:

1) Is there a sure way to find out if it is a hardware fault in baseband or just a s/w fault? My phone uses custom ROM and is rooted.

2) Is there a way to tell the os that there is no baseband chip in the cell and it should not try to contact the baseband chip. Just like it works for tablets without sim card.

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mamda:
It looks like my phone's baseband chip is intact.

Past few days I flashed a Lollipop ROM and the phone got stuck on startup. So I downloaded another JellyBean ROM and flashed it. The phone started but the baseband issue was still there.

After few days, when I restarted the phone, it suddenly asked me for usim, I turned it off and inserted sim and then turned on, and the phone was working perfect! like no issue at all!!! baseband was showing some version as well as calls were going out and everything.

After a while, suddenly it gave me an error like:

System restart due to application operation error

if you detach battery now, may seriously damage your phone

so I waited for the phone to restart and the baseband was gone again :(

But after that, it is doing the same thing on and on, it suddenly shows baseband and then after a while phone shuts down with message and then baseband again unknown.

This gave me the idea that the hardware is intact, and there is no problem with it. Only the rom is not good.

If I can get the proper rom for it, and can flash it, then may be all these problems go away.

I do have a .binx rom but the method to flash it using the IE page does not really work. it gives me some USB error while all my usb drivers are installed. I will give it another try though.

But atleast I have found out that there must be a solution to my problem and my phone is not actually bricked!

I will update the post as there is any further development.

Hey everyone, I am not the developper which is why I post this here, it's just that I was wishing to share the news.

Apparently, someone managed to make a custom kernel for Tizen Gear 2, they say it saves battery, it has a better performances, optimized code, and that it uses all the cores. That's what I understand as the OP is in spanish and I'm french.

Here is the link : http://foro.toiiki.es/index.php/top...HPSESSID=355898676e486e7c0cb7e965663fbe90#new

Hey there,

not sure if this is the right forum but I'll try.

Before unlocking the Bootloader I created a backup using PC Companion and MyPhoneExplorer.

Please take a look at the Filesystem and let me know if there is a chance to get the TA.img out of this.,

Thanks and best regards,

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlashTag:
POTENTIAL FIX: PLEASE SEE UPDATE 2 BELOW!!!

Hey everyone, got a really odd issue and I seem to not be the only one.

I decided to get back into some Android development now that I have a bit of free time.

Went through the whole process of installing Android Studio, SDK, etc, etc without any problems. Decided to also get my OPO connected because I'd rather test on a physical device.

HOWEVER, I had logcat running and kept noticing my device would just randomly "disconnect" for no apparent reason. I phrase "disconnect" like that because ADB would just say the device is "offline" but still connected, despite being unlocked and very much on.

So I'd see something like this:

List of devices attached
XXXXXXX device

And then maybe a minute or two (random) later:

List of devices attached
XXXXXXX offline

I'm on stock CM12 (YNG1TAS213) and Windows 8.1 (64bit). I'm using the Google USB Drivers.

I've tested this on two machines (albeit, both 8.1). Additionally, it seems others are having the issues regardless of the OS (I can't post links b/c I'm a new member but there are two threads on the OPO forums with this issue).

I do have a 2012 Nexus 7 so I'll attempt to see if I'm getting the same issue but something tells me it is the OPO.

Update:

I just ran a quick test on my Nexus 7. It was able to stay "connected" for a straight 7 minutes. My OPO gave up after less than 1 minute (I have a script that runs every minute).

Update 2 (FINAL):

Welp, I seemed to have solved my own problem but I'll leave this here for anyone who is having the same problem.

I remembered that I did change one setting that was crucial to modify.

Yes, the dreaded Google Play Services wakelock issue... Went into Privacy Guard and re-enabled "Wake Up" for Google Play Services and what do you know, it fixed it.

Toggled it back off, and what do you know, it crapped out again.

So, it looks like Google Play Services is the culprit here. I guess the fix for now is to re-enable "wake up" while connected until the wakelock bug is fixed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taureanxxx:
Hello and thanks in advance for any help.

I have Alcatel 4030x running MIUI v5 3.5.31 and its been trouble free-up to now! As mentioned in the guide it used to reboot at random and its suggested to change the lock screen. I did this in favour of a numeric password. It rebooted to the lockscreen and the keypad. But......... the keypad is only displaying 1-9 and my password contains zero's and so I am locked out now.

My pc does not recognise it when in usb connection in order for me to reflash/reinstall etc. Can anyone offer any help/advice with this please?

Thanks

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brichardson1991:
It shouldn't be lagging especially as you said your friend has an entry level LG.

Did you buy it brand new or used ?

If new then you shouldn't be having issues unless you've installed something that is really bogging down your phone.

if used then just check you haven't got lots of running apps in the background and services/apps you don't need installed.

Hope this helps somewhat.

I'm sure someone else will give you more recommendations but will probably need more information than what you have given.

Uhm ..if you are not able to use warranty to sent it to repair. Make up a good story etc etc etc

Then start with taking it apart. Use a hairdryer or a hot air gun and circle around the back and then open the device.

There are official guides out there. Use them.

replaced my screen (with digitizer) a few months ago. i would strongly recommend buying screen with digitizer!

first had a sharp display now have a aou.

no problems. its actually quit easy to do. you just need some patience. dont forget to buy the adhesive. you may want to buy a opening tool (some vendors on ebay sell them with the display).

i didnt and used a box cutter but as a result i had a lot of tiny nasty glass pieces flying around (already removed the original foil on the display).

otherwise watch the guides on youtube. most of them are missing a step or two for disassembling so you may want to watch more then one guide.

You should try below software. It'll probably help you recovering your data.

Also there are other Android apps that are available on play store which can help you, but you need a rooted phone to use those apps.

If you have rooted phone try below apps.

1. DiskDigger

2. Undelete

Hello Guys,

i am asking the community here if anyone has any kind of hint for me:

i recently bought me a Xiaomi Mi4i as a replacement for my beloved Nexus 4 (display broken) and i must say that it really is a nice toy :)

But after nearly 2 -3 days of using it i am facing these strange problems inside the red area as seen on the picture Mi4i.jpg

There is a sort of dirty film on the surface which is not to be cleaned away with any material i used (clean cloth, paper towel, microfiber cloth, t-shirt, lens cleaner, tft cleaner).

At first the display seems to be clean but then again this dirty film comes back (check the other two attached pictures starting with IMG).

Does anybody know what my problem is? What can i do instead of using RMA cause this will take some time from germany to Hong-Kong :(

Hello :)

1)Just dont unplug usb cable if u're flashing something to your phone while in download mode. if you're not flashing/doing anything then nothing happens :)

2) Could you be more specific? Like what kind of problem? Software side , i think there is not ^^

3) i9300 did not recieve official kitkat update, you can only have kitkat if you're going to flash custom ROMs(kitkat).

You have to root your phone on your current ROM ( 4.3 jellybean) , then u will flash latest cwm recovery and after that u will flash Any custom ROM u want ^^

You should indeed root your S3 to remove bloatware/system apps that u never use. This helps your battery to last longer, alot.

Also Touchwiz becomes smoother with way less apps on background ^^

For rooting:

download Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root for i9300, extract/unzip it.

Put ur phone in download mode and flash the file via Odin

After rooting and installing latest CWM recovery for your i9300, You can find Kikat custom roms in here(xda), download the one u like and flash it.

You need to put the rom in ur phone memory/sdcard, enter recovery mode and flash it.

Its 5 months already that im using S5 Sensation ROM | kitkat 4.4.4 for my i9300. This rom comes with S5/note4 features and performs pretty well.

[General Questions and Answers] isri:
Hello,

Last time I wanted to cleanup my Google Photos (mostly from time, when there wasn't free storage). So I've removed all older than June 2015 and now I'm uploading them once again.

Additionally I've removed all photos automatically send by my phone. Then I wanted to re-backup them once again. Unfortunately, only new photos are send to cloud.

I was trying using option "save copy of all" (I'm not sure how is it called in English) from photos application settings but doesn't work. Also removing settings and reinstalling Photos app doesn't help. It still knows some settings (for example my selection of folders to backup) and probably knows which photos were uploaded before.

As I remember from last year, I was often making full wipe and all photos were uploaded each time, but I don't want to make full wipe currently.

Any ideas?

Many thanks and regards,

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toeter80:
Hey guys,

After hours and hours of searching forums and trying things, I decided I need help.

I just bought a Z1 (yes, they're still for sale) and I wanted to update the firmware to the newest .283 lollipop. Also, I want to root my device.

I have rooted Android phones before, and I have some experience flashing Custom ROMs etc.

As I have understood I have to downgrade to a 4.4 ROM first, to get root. Then my plan was to install recovery and install .283 Pre-rooted ZIP in Recovery.

So here's what I did:

-Flash 14.1.G.1.534 firmware

-Root using KingoROOT

-try to install recovery

-boot into recovery

-install pre-rooted .283 Lollipop ZIP

-phone won't boot anymore.

I am still able to flash the newest .283 with the FTF file, but then obviously it's unrooted. I also cannot figure out how to flash recovery after flashing .283 FTF. (Flashing recovery seems to work, but I cannot enter recovery via adb or otherwise)

So if anyone can tell me what I am missing, please do!
