Hi Guys,

I'm unable to change the firmware on my Asus Zenfone 6 from the Chinese CUCC one to the Global one, where I can use google play services and install apps, other than baidu's apps.

After following the steps in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/zenfone-5/general/asus-zenfone-5-6-cn-cucc-tw-to-ww-t2880211

I am unable to go past step 5. My phone's screen freezes and displays only a USB symbol (the one with the 3 arrows)

Please help.

Thank you.

Hey everyone, first of all cudos on the killer forums. I've been reading since I got my Excalibur but here is my first post.

I have a Rogers S621 that I bought (off someone) already SIM unlocked. When trying to run the SDA and WM6 updates, I get ERROR [294]. I'm guessing it's not CID unlocked. Is imei-check the only way to go? A search yielded me no clear answer.

Thanks,

[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Hello,

First of all, Welcome to the forum ...

Secondly, I own a Rogers branded HTC S621 as well which i upgraded to Windows Mobile 6 45 mins ago.

I used GSM Liberty - here's the link

http://www.gsmliberty.net/shop/htc-excalibur-instant-remote-unlock-p-1452.html

i was done CID Unlocking and upgrading to Windows Mobile 6 in 15-20 mins. It's instant and i used a credit card.

Unfortunately, there's no free cid unlocker so if your in a hurry to get the upgrade, pay 40 $ and get it done.

Trust me, it's worth the upgrade.

Good Luck !

p.s: i won't give you a hard time but here's a tip: use search, it really helps - almost everything is answered here. Oh yeah, use windows xp and not vista when you unlock your phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] nicholician:
So a friend of mine recently gave me this YP-G70, asking me to fix it for him. His cousin had promised to put KitKat on the device, no problem, as a replacement to the stock software. This is all I know.

When I received the device, it would not boot into any ROM, only into recovery (CWM was flashed). In CWM, I could see that /system, /data, /emmc, and /sdcard partitions were all unmounted. I tried to remount them in CWM, but alas, this did not survive a reboot, even just back into recovery.

I have tried to flash the stock firmware for this device (obtained from sammobile) through odin, which was a success... until it booted up, and found that again, the proper partitions were not mounted. From there, I went on to flash CM9, which ended me up to where I am now.

As it currently stands, /dbdata, /data, /emmc, and /sdcard are all unmounted and are stuck that way. Does anyone know how to solve this, cause I am lost right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] yahya69:
I would try to find out what the log files say. If you can still make a full backup under CWM, I suppose this should include the last log written by android. This is where I would start my investigation. It is of course strange that android fails to mount the /data partition. I have no clue what /dbdata is for. My gut feeling is that your friend messed up the partioning, but I think it is key to find out what happens during boot time.

Finally, since you didn't write about this: Did you try wipe the cache and dalvik cache in CWM?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Malarz:
Please take a look at this picture. This is "pointer location" option in Developer Options. The red line is an arch I made with a single stroke, but as you see it is broken in two places. There is a part on the screen where it happens at the entire width of display. It is not constant, but happens many, many times a day. I also get screen freezes, and ghost touches which run apps, make random phone calls, etc.

I think this is a known symptom of degradation for the Nexus 4. Two of my friends already had this problem and nothing but a replacement screen could fix their problems. As I did research for them I came across many people who suffered from the same issues.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andr3y91:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnydvc:
Here I have the same problem, about 1 month ago started to have some touch parts dead, but it has been worsening, now its almost useless.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _jay_uk_:
I too had the same problem. I had to change the screen. It cost about £30 from ebay for a new one. On the replacement I noticed that the version number of the screen was higher and also the manufacturing date was a few months younger than the broken original. Also the digitizer lines look different when light shines on them. Perhaps they realized that there was an issue with some of the earlier models.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Malarz:
Surprisingly the issue lessened for me. It is not gone completely, but for the last 5-6 days it does not happen as often as it used to, now maybe only once a day. A week ago I started using _only_ the original charger. I had read somewhere that a faulty battery or charger may be causing erratic screen. Not sure if the change of charger has anything to do with it, or if that's just a fluke.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alimba:
Hello,

I have a P6-T00 which was running firmware B508SP02 in English (EMUI 2). I updated the firmware to B708 (EMUI 3.0) using automatic upgrade mode by holding Volume Up + Volume Down + Power simultaneously when the phone was starting up, and now all my apps and data are gone.

Will restoring my backup bring back my contacts, and other data? or should I go back to B508SP02 ?

thanks for any help! i'm desperate!

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alimba:
Restoring app data

To clarify further,

through restore I was able to get back my contact list, WLANs and passwords that were stored, etc.

But after I reinstalled my apps, these do not access to their old data, even though the data is still on the external micro SD card. For example, all of Wechat's data is on the external card, but after I re-installed Wechat, I cannot see my old chat messages, etc. It was totally empty.

Does anyone know how to get apps to 'see' their old data?

thanks,

'Alim
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
First explain the way you made the backup ( official huawei backup app or custom recovery or just copy/paste to another location).

Sent from my SM-G850F
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alimba:
I used the huawei backup app but did not backup app data because it would have taken up too much space. I backed up everything else -contacts, configurations, etc.- but not app data. However, I can see that the file system on my SD card still contains data from many of the apps that were installed. Eg: wechat data is there, but wechat does not show my chats and history from before the reinstall.

thanks!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
Theres the mistake you made. I belive that the data you are searching is erased and you are stuck with a fresh installations of the apps.

Sent from my SM-G850F
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alimba:
I'm wondering why I lost my apps and all app data this time... it didn't happen the last 2 times I updated the phone's firmware (which is why I didn't back up the apps and their data). Is it because i used 'automatic upgrade mode' by holding Volume Up + Volume Down + Power simultaneously when the phone was starting up?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
That could be the reason only if you updated from sd cards. It can happen if update it that way because the phone then rsets everything and makes a fresh/clean install. If you made it from internal storage it wouldnt have happened i belive.

Do I need to learn Java to program in Android Studio? Or I can just jump straight into it? If I must learn it, can u guys show me a great way of learning Java? (I have a Pascal basic BTW).
[Java for Android App Development] s0nicyouth:
You definitely must. Java is the main language for android development and without knowing it you can't do anything advanced.

To start learning you can use docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/. But learning is nothing without practice so start your own project and use Java in it. It's relatively easy language so you can start quickly.

Thanks Brother :D i was also looking for some tutoral sites....and found nothing for my choice...i have basic knowledge in Java and Codes 2apps also..check my threads but can u plz send me some Video tutoral video for android app development i want to add advanced Features & libraries :(
[Java for Android App Development] s0nicyouth:
You are welcome. To be honest I don't know any video tutorial and personally I think the best way to learn programming is practice. So just use any Vogella's tutors and code your apps but always try to make them more complex.
[Java for Android App Development] appninjaz:

Yes, you need to learn Java properly before visiting android studio.

Because Java is key to do programming in android studio for Android developers.:o:o

I learned from a YouTube series called "mybringback" 5 years ago. It's still a good place to start. Also, a great website that interactively teaches you to code is Codecademy.com. They are mainly a web-development website, but recently added java to their courses. It may be worth trying as well.

It best to learn Java, but today you can also use Xamarin to develop cross platform apps using .net (Visual Studio 2015).
[Java for Android App Development] jontrav:
java is main language to android studio

if you are using android studio, Java is a must. But you don't have to learn core java, you can just jump in to android programming, coz there are lots of different library there.

i would suggest using android studio instead of others, beside they are free, they are directly from google :)
[Java for Android App Development] arnavrp:
Yes, java is must in order to develop android apps. Android virtual machine runs java codes. So android apps needs to be in java.

Now a days, there are so many frameworks and tools available which allow you to develop android apps in other languages and convert the apps developed in other languages to java code to deploy and run on android.

I think it is a good idea to directly code in java as you can easily understand concepts involved in android os and develop apps that perform well proving best user experience.. It is not difficult to learn java and android framework to develop android apps.
[Java for Android App Development] croconaut:
As others have pointed out, yes you must. However, if you have Pascal/Delphi background, that helps a lot! So loops/ifs/functions are no stranger to you. You "only" need to learn about classes, interfaces and such stuff, not very hard.

Luckily for you, there's literally thousands of Java tutorials, books, videos, anything you can think of. I always like to stick with books from respected authors and/or the language authors. So for Java, I'd go with https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/index.html (just an example, there's tens of other valuable books/tutorials).
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sidek. Meher:
hi everyone,

one side of my s6 edge that my brother gave me just popped up a little from the adhesive ( battery side)

but then when I asked my brother ( he said that the phone was exposed for long periods to the sun many times )

so I said okay that could explain it.

but with a bit of research I found that the problem was coming from the battery that bumped up of long exposure to the sun.

I then disassembled the device and found that the battery was indeed bumped up a little and that it pushed one of side of the back cover

but my question is , can it influence the Usb-Dock of the s6 edge ? because first :

1- the phone take more than normal time to recharge

2- the phone discharge slowly with intensive use ( game , fb , videos and navigation all at the same times even when it's plugged in to the wall-charger (but not when normal use like only watch youtube etc.. )

3- don't sync , and it say device is not recognized,

4- don't fast-charge , i bought a fast charger ( aukey ) the fast charging work with other s6 but not mine

5- after i tried everything , changed cable, charger, tested on multiple pc's and tried every single driver that i found on them but still nothing and still the same problem .

so i bought a new USB-Dock thinking maybe the one it came with was faulty and I replaced it with the new one ,

but nothing still the same problem (by the way this is where I discovered that the battery was bumped up).

so , it does not accept fast charging and don't sync with the pc , so then i though that maybe the battery has something to do with it , and so is my question , could it be the battery ?

thank you

I rooted my phone using Kongo root and I installed a custom recovery and now running on CWM recovery. Till then everything been working perfectly and it's all was just a piece of cake. then I downloaded gapps and lolipop, placed them in my external storage, went to recovery mode, cleared cache and clear to factory settings, cleared dalvik cache, but when I went to install them. I get the same error from both of them and it's like this "This package is for device : ms013g; this device is ms103g" I tried plenty of roms out there and gapps versions including lolipop versions and checked blisspop rom too I got the same thing. I don't know what I'm doing wrong ? Or its just my phone maybe I'm downloading roms for the wrong phone ? I would appreciate anyone's help in here. It's the only place I would come to :)

[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Add up to 6 shortcuts to second screen. This means one more. I tried to do 7, but I simply don't have enough screen space with proper padding to squeeze in 7.

I can only confirm this working on the pure stock rom. Try on others, but do a backup first.

Another finding is you have to use the stock launcher to add it. The reason this is, is because you have to drag and drop it into second screen from the homescreen or app drawer. Once you have it set you can go back to using your launcher of preference.

Installation:

Flash attached zip through recovery or unzip it and move to system\priv-app\ConeShortcut and set perms rw-r-r. I am also including the original app in .bak format in case some forget to backup their original.

Again as of now I can only confirm working on the stock rom and using the stock launcher to set. Second screen is tied into so many aspects of the system so it is a very tricky thing to work on.

As you can see from the screenshots if you try to add it from the settings menu you will only have 5 options. If you look at the preview screen you can see my 6 apps and that I'm able to shuffle them around.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] agrenwa:
Thanks, I applied this mod to the rom I'm using the No-NaMe ROM!! And it's working flawlessly. Keep them coming.

[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] bdorr1105:
Thanks, what app actually controls the second screen.. Xposed may cause problems with it as well
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Everything.. App shortcuts, signature, second screen apk, build prop, system ui, framework res, and the stock launcher. It's pretty much incorporated into every major aspect of the system somewhere.

I was thinking that too becauae after I updated to xposed 79 I started having some issues too..
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] bdorr1105:
Well damn so what app cache did you clear or did you wipe from recovery
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:

Should work to get it back..

[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] twistdshade:
I wonder if the settings menu can be modified to fit the extra shortcut as well. Also I wonder what other things could be done with the second screen. Seems to me like the default features are somewhat limited. What I would like to see is functioning widgets on the second screen.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] twistdshade:
Using apex launcher, if you tap and hold the background, you get a menu that pops up to add things to the home screen , if you select "shortcut" and then "activities" you get a list of all sorts of menus, many of the menu items aren't functional, seems there are a lot of settings and features that are included in the base Android version being used, and the features were removed, however the hidden menus for these features still exist through these "activities" shortcuts, many developer options can be accessed. For example there's a hidden menu to change notification LED settings, to change LED color etc, even though the v10 has no notification LED. There's a whole drop-down section for second screen, including a "background chooser". The background chooser opens up and lets you crop an image to the exact dimensions of the second screen, however when you apply the settings, nothing happens. It seems LG was in the process of developing further features but stopped... Maybe we can take the next step
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] Swizzle82:
Most likely some things will be implemented on the next v series phone. The code has been written just not intiated..
[T-Mobile LG V10 Themes and Apps] twistdshade:
Why should we wait and hope it gets done on the next phone, and then spend all our money on it... Why not just initiate the code ourselves? If I had more coding knowledge, and a more structured chain of thought... Lol I have the processing power to figure this stuff out, just not enough ram..

Just bought a used Moto G. The display has a horizontal line of distortion that scrolls down the screen over and over again. It looks very similar to what you see when you're watching the news on TV and there's a CRT monitor in the background.

In addition, occasionally the screen with twitch for a few milliseconds. Probably going to return it, but if there's an easy fix I'd rather do that.
