[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] johnny--2k:
So, I have an 8525, newest rom from Cingular/HTC, and a few apps.

The apps I am running are as follows:

SPB Pocket Plus

SPB Mobile Shell

SPB Diary

VibraSwitch

Device Lock

Jetware BT Fix

Clear Temp

and a few other irrelevant ones.

Anyways, I have the Device Lock mapped to the Comm Mgr button. So, I lock the device, and power off the screen. When I go to wake up the device, Instead of the usual unlock in the bottom right of the screen, first I get Password, so I hit it, then I have to hit unlock, then unlock again as normal....

Any suggestions? I have never set a password on this device, so I dont know why all of a sudden it is prompting me for it.

Thanks,

John

Same thing happened to me when I installed Shell on my touch.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] johnny--2k:
that's wierd. I had the trial version for a while, then got the full version, and only started with the full version. Never happened when I had the trial version.

Do a so called hard reset:

Press and hold the Left SOFT KEY and Right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device. You will be presented with a menu saying 'press R to reset, X to exit', if you press R Your device will be set back to factory default settings.

(The L/R soft keys are the "--" keys just up the start and OK buttons)

This should do the trick!:D

Hermes 100 (8525 Cingular) (WM6 Flashed) Won't except PASSWORD

Hi all! I'm a new member here so the help is greatly appreciated.

So here's the deal. I just recently got married :) while doing the last minute prep for the big day my hermes 8525 decides to get devil possesed on me.

It started a few days before. Sometimes losing radio connection and other times locking up right after a call was completed but not fully ended. It was OK I guessed since I was able to powerdown and restart (remove the battery) and resume "normal" use.

BUT on the day before the wedding, That lil @#$% decides to lockup one last time and after a power down (removing battery) and restarting the unit, I was prompted to enter the password (as usual), BUT this time after entering my password for access, like I always do, I got the response stating that my password was not entered in correctly. AAAARRRRRGH! NO WAY! but yes way. The worst has struck.

After searching my ARSE off looking for a solution the best I came acress was a "hard reset". Another AAAARRRRGH!

From what I understand this would wipe off all my data. This would really hurt since I had recently entered many long lost (over 10 years) family members contact info that I was finally able to track down.

So, I'm reaching out to this community for something... anything that would HELP!!!

How can I get into my phone and get my contacts back???

TIA

I really appreciate any help on this one!

NEAR TEARS!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] kistrokes:
Still Stuck

THanks for the replies and the suggestion for the HARD RESET which I'm finding very hard to DO! Not that I can not just that I CAN"T!

I've been talking with an HTC tech in the hopes that this issue can get a better resolution than NUKE'n all my data. Didn't hear from him last night, guess he's still diggin for a solution. I'll have to call him in the morning. Hopefully he has figured out something.

Thanks Again ALL!!!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rommul:
Hi guys I just updated my Note 2 with Cyanogen Mod and the installation of the AGNI kernel.

I also used the reartition .zip file to regain some space.

For some reason now I have lost root.

What is the procedure for rooting the device after installing a custom rom and kernel?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvio47:
are you already check developer option ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rommul:
Yes. I did the button presses on build number so developer options is open.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rommul:
I found a solution

Previously Root checker would tell me root was not PROPERLY installed and whenever I installed supersu and tried to update, it would fail.

So I uninstalled supersu and reinstalled supersu manually by flashing a .zip in TWRP.

Problem solved. I have root now.
[Moto X Q&A] johnrangoo:
Hi,

I think i did something stupid.

I want to sell my moto x and therefore i tried to relock it.

Somehow i was a little drunk and flashed 4.4.4 on my moto with 5.1.1. Unfortunately i used some instructions which also included flashing gpt.bin. During the process i realized that this might be a bad thing. Now all i can boot is TWRP.

Any hint how to get a proper Lollipop running on the phone to sell it?

Can´t find any 5.1.1 gpt.bin and the other files needed to flash with fastboot...

thank you very much in advance!

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel.1983:
I live in Germany and will soon receive my style, maybe tomorrow. My question:

There are several issues, that points to different system images of the XT1572 and XT1575. I assumed, that for example the lte channels (= modem) are the only difference, but there are some others, too. In an other thread, an user described a problem with using WiFi correctly, after flashing the system image of the XT1575 on a XT1572.

This would result in different roms, if development will start soon. Is this correct? Does anybody know, what's the real difference of the two devices regarding software/hardware? Are there different WiFi modules? Can you please support me?

I'll wait with rooting my device until I'll get some clearance about this (and maybe until M via OTA arrives).
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabeEddyT:
This is the reason why I feel these forums shouldn't be clumped together; Similar to the problem we encounter with carrier-specific variants. Although, if someone can figure out unified development, that'd be great.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel.1983:
There should also be a warning sticky maybe, until this issue gets investigated. Otherwise flashing the wrong image could end up in a (soft?) brick.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veghov:
I can answer you on the rooting part atleast as i have the XT1572 (European moto x style) Unlocking the bootloader and flashing the TWRP recovery for the moto X pure works just fine. After that its just a matter of flashing the SuperSu Zip and you are good to go as far as root goes.

I'm in Canada using Videotron. If I set the phone to 4G, I am able to send and receive text messages, make phone calls but mysteriously cannot make calls.

If I set the phone to 3G, nothing works. If I set it to 2G, I can send and receive messages, make calls and receive calls but my data is slower than my 1982 1200 baud modem!! ;)

Does someone use the Fingertouch text input progi on the Touch?

http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=fingertouch

I'm wondering if this really solves the problem with text entry and make it possible to use the Touch with a single hand without stylus?

Possible to enter text while going on foot or driving in car?

Does it respond reliably?

Can you please report your experience?
[Touch GSM General] thelordharry:
IMAO, you're never going to achieve the sort of satisfying, one handed experience on a touch screen keyboard that you get with a real one, be it a slide out qwerty keyboard or a cellphone numberpad. However, I would be very interest too to hear the experiences of anyone who actually uses this product. I've tried others, such as Tengo but to be honest, it's still very much stylus based and as 'two handed' as using the default virtual qwerty keyboard it ships with.

By the way, using your phone/PDA whilst driving a car??? I think you'll find that's illegal in most countries now he he :)
[Touch GSM General] doni:
I use HTK (Happy Tappings Keyboard), it's free and for me works great. I don't like using a stylus, and so far haven't had a need with this phone. The KB has slightly bigger keys, but just enough to completely change the experience. One handed use is very accurate and easy imho.

Google for it and give it a try (there are skins out there too, I use a black one that is quite good and fits well with the default theme). If you like it and want to make it default, search for Sipchange.
[Touch GSM General] Flipside:
I use T9, found it right in here somewhere :)

[Touch GSM General] citats:
Tried it, and I dislike it, will stick with HTK for now.
[Touch GSM General] maevro:
HTK and Pocket CM are my 2 favorite right now. What makes HTK so much better on the Touch over other HTC phones is that you can hit all the side buttons perfectly because of the flat flush screen.
[Touch GSM General] wbaez0320:
I, have tried about every keyboard out there looking for the perfect one. I have tried the iphone wanna be, virtual, and fullscreen keyboards like.....tengo, spb full, happyT....... etc. etc. And I find no other better than the htc t9 Phone pad, big enough to type with one finger, so simple to switch from T9 entry to Abc, to just Number pad and use of symbols is just as quick to get to. Atleast for me there is nothing like it.
[Touch GSM General] gohyc:
If you can't do one-handed input with HTC Phone Pad app, nothing else will!! I am even faster on the Phone Pad T9 than I am on those with hardware number pad, not kidding!! How can anyone not like Phone Pad?

God knows why HTC left the Phone Pad app out of the Touch, especially when they claimed you can do almost anything on the Touch without the stylus!!! With Phone Pad, I can say that is true!!

Tried Happy Tapping, didn't think much of it as the buttons are only a tag bit larger than the default keyboard.
[Touch GSM General] fire00:
for all the users which are okay with dictionary-based text entry tools like the Phone-Pad it might be the best solution for sure.

Well for me I have to switch between 3 langauges all the time and I also use many words which are not common and not in the dictionaries, so I need then to switch to ABC, so that's why I'm still looking for a full-sized keyboard method and the fingertouch by teksoftco seemed to fit well to me.

- You have almost the whole fullsized-keyboards which you can "really" operate with your fingers (happy-tiping etc. I really cannot...to small)

- And you still do see the original interface which is the disadvantage for me with SPB fullsize keyboard

But as I unfortunately sold my Touch because of the missing ideal text entry I cannot test it. Few days after I sold it the mentioned application came out :-)
[Touch GSM General] iamjnb:
t9 phone pad for htc touch/elf

The phone pad works amazingly. Better than the HW keypads on other devices. It needs a bit of practice but the Touch is designed for finger use rather than stylus. the case is harder than other screens and responds to touch (it does not work with a glove on for that matter.

View attachment 46863 View attachment 46864.

Copy both the files to your device and install them. Reset the device once.

The default keypad on WM is the keyboard. To change it, Open IM selector from the programmes and select the default keyboard as phone pad. it works like a breeze hereafter.
[Touch GSM General] radhoo:
I agree. I also need to use it in several languages, so I cannot stick to a dictionary based t9-like keyboard. But I am happy with the fingertouch as I can type using one hand only, the buttons are quite big:

Did any of you try the builtin macroing of the fingertouch? You can define short commands that do specific actions, for eg:

!cap , will capture screen, parameters can be changed here:HKLM, "Software\Teksoft\FingerTouch

!gre , do this in Notes or Pocket Word, will replace the trigger with a phrase, this is good if you need to type the same thing very often like greetings in an email

there are some other combinations, and the user can modify or add new ones:
[Touch GSM General] fire00:
Radhoo - I've tested it on Ubiquio 503G (which I sent back again :-) a bit and as far as I know on one of the layouts which seemed the best one there are two letters each button. If you want to enter the second letter on button you have to type twice on that button right?

But what do you do when you want to type the first letter twice e.g. something with double "A"? Do you have to type first "A" then wait to allow a delay and to avoid that "S" gets entered and then type the second "A" ?
[Touch GSM General] radhoo:
Yes you can do it that way

-or-

Adjust the repeat rate from Options, and simply keep the key pressed

-or-

Press the A then press something else that doesn't affect the writing (shift-shift) then press A again.

but what about the macroing, did anyone play with it?
[Touch GSM General] maevro:
I would never use phonepad on the touch. You can design your own keyboard on HTK and make the buttons larger.
[Touch GSM General] canadian student:
How do you do that? I love the phone pad, like amny have said, i've tried a bunch of them, and I keep coming back too the phone pad. I would use HTkb, if I can make the keys bigger, like half the screen.
[Touch GSM General] El Cid Campeador:
hi people, where can I find happy tapping keyboard???

[Touch GSM General] teride:
I'm interested to know this also..I like HTK but buttons are a little small. Have been trying "Fingertouch" not sure if I like it.

Plus after soft reset HTK always disappears. I understand adding the "default" keyboard selection as only required for WM5 devices. Is this needed with Touch to establish HTK as "default" after soft reset?
[Touch GSM General] marisa4755:

Fingertouch manual available online, also as PDF

There is a complete manual, available online at:

http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=fingertouch&tab=info

(See Features).

If #2 is confusing for you, you should try the 5th layout, it's big and standard.

Still I suggest you invest some time in learning how to use the 2nd layout - some considerable research was put in making it possible - takes time to learn but the results are good.

I've attached the manual here also, as PDF:
[Touch GSM General] newuser888:
Tried almost everything out there.

SPB full keyboard is not useful because you can't see the application.

Similarly I don't like Finger Touch at all, because it covers up too much of the screen, leaving very little visibilty left for the application.

I tried Tengo. I am able to do away with Stylus completely, especially with the Thumb version.

There are actually four different versions of Tengo, so you should individually try them.

Tengo free is probably what most people have tried. Then there is Tengo 2.1 which allows you to choose the standard keyboard when typing in things like password. Tengo 2.1 also has another layout called the Nano, with number keys visible. Lastly there is Tengo Thumb. The key of Tengo Thumb is much bigger than Finger Touch, but it covers smaller area thus leaving more visibility of your application.

Of all, I like Tengo the best.

[Touch GSM General] witchshady:
I was kinda hoping to find a Phone Pad with haptic feedback...like everytime I press on a letter, the phone vibrates. Similar to the tactile feedback you get from regular cellphones.

So far, haven't found a single program like that yet... :(
[Touch GSM General] vertigo1:
Good luck. The problem with adding feedback like that to a phone not designed around it is that these phones are too slow to respond quickly enough to the tapping. I tried an app for the phone pad that did this but you had to hold down the virtual keys to get any kind of feedback vibrations. Quite un-impressive...
[Touch GSM General] witchshady:
So I guess we're stuck with just wishful thinking then...crap.

I was really hoping that that would become a reality one day...but after reading thru most of the threads here, I'm inclined to agree with you. It seems that those that did come up with a similar program just had limited success...not to mention it messed up the vibrating motor inside the phone...plus the drain on the battery life.

oh well.
