[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] tiddo:
Hi to all.

I put Cofface's cyano into my Redmi 3 a week ago and it worked fine except for the network signal that seemed to me to be weaker than on stable or dev miui rom. Yesterday I don't know what i did, i just switched the network type from the services menu (*#*#4636#*#*) to see the signal strenght of 2g/3g/4g and after doing that, the phone stopped to take signal with my SIM in any network type. So i switched back through MiFlash (and selected flash all option), to the Dev and also to the stable rom, but now I just have 4G working.

I tried to put again CM and i get no signal in every network type, even trying to restore a nandroid backup that i made when the phone worked. I also tried to flash through fastboot the NON-HSLO.bin took from developer rom, but nothing changed. What could it be? Where I live the 4G is not everywhere so most of the time I'll be without signal and it would be really frustrating.

I tried my sim in a Samsung phone and it takes both 2g/3g (the phone doesn't have 4g) , but trying another sim in my phone (of the same carrier) gives me the same result of above : only 4g . While on CM that sim could connect (only 4g) but mine not.

Please help me! :crying:

sorry if i didn't explain myself well, but I'm not english :eek:

EDIT: with the 4G i can only surf on the net but i can't make or receive phone calls. I'm giving up on this phone

EDIT2: following some guides I erased modemst1 and modemst2 but now I'm unable to get IMEI and I have unknown baseband

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hello.

I recently purchased a chinese off brand tablet and had an unexpected issue with the memory being partitioned. The model is vKB011B and it's processor is mt6592. It's running a Mediatek flavour of Lollipop 5.12.

The issue is that, while it has 64GB of internal memory, it's memory has been partitioned into one 4GB block of "Internal Storage" and one 60GB block of "Phone Storage". Apps, and most app data, all install to the 4GB partition so it runs out of memory very quickly. I can side step the issue to some degree by moving apps to "Phone Storage" but only some apps can be moved like this.

Basically I want to gain more access to this memory for the purpose or installing apps. I rooted the device and tried to use App2SD but it seems that this app only works with an External SD. I found a thread here describing a way to tell my device where to install apps but this doesn't appear to have any other option but "internal storage" and "external storage". I tested it just be sure and it doesn't change the install location without an external SD.

So I'm looking for what I can do to make my device install to the 60GB partition and preferably any app data as well.

Alternately I found this thread regarding altering partitions....

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/general/guide-repartition-internal-memory-data-t3052242

But I am uncertain if this will work the same with my particular device since it sounds like his device has unified memory he's just stealing from the system memory. It also seems fairly risky if there is a means of simply installing to the 60GB partition with out altering it.

Finally, I am wondering if there is anyway to switch my device to unified memory?

Thank you very much for your time.

As the title says, do any of you guys experiencing home launcher redraw/reload after pretty much each and every other task you do?

Happen on mine at least 30 times per day, or is this normal on LG devices? Happens every time I got into another app. On small app, chances are there , but on big apps, it certainly will.

Coming from few Sony devices, and my last xperia z was near flawless, and that damn old phone never redraw it's launcher, not even once! I wouldn't buy an LG if it's not for the camera. More and more regrets as every day passes by.

[Blu Pure XL] thomasanderson:
Came home from work yesterday and the Pure XL was dead, said it needed to be charged. Never happened before but I figured whatever and plugged it in and went to sleep. Woke up this morning and powered on the phone and the all white BLU splash screen came up and then the phone went off. Came on again and the all white BLU splash screen came up and went off. Ive tried holding down the power button for over a minute. Tried holding the power button and volume keys to boot into recovery from 10 seconds to 2 minutes, nothing stops it! It just keeps rebooting. This has been my apprehension towards purchasing phones with non removable batteries. The boot recycle happens about every 15 seconds and the phone vibrates everytime it boots up for the past 2 hours. Its getting very annoying and there is no way to make it stop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Blu Pure XL] Short Circuit:
Plug it into your computer (you'll notice that there will be a longer black screen in-between the bootloops) and hold down the power button for at least 10 seconds or more, then release it after the next vibration and the white BLU screen shows up. It might take a couple of tries.

If you manage to boot into at least recovery but can't boot into the system, then try clearing your cache/dalvik cache and try rebooting into system again.

If all of the above doesn't work for you, then your boot.img/system has gone bad, and you'll have to flash the stock images with SP Flash Tool (both of which can be found on other posts on this forum).
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:

[Blu Pure XL] thomasanderson:
Thanks for the quick replies guys. The PC trick didnt work at all. I just called BLU and asked for a replacement(havent heard back from them ironically). I put the phone in the basement so I wouldnt have to deal with that incessant buzzing every 15 seconds. Eventually the battery died. Since I had it powered off finally, I plugged it in for about 10 minutes to give it enough of a charge to power on but not stay on to buzz for another 2 hours. This time I powered it on using the master reset button combo and was finally able to wipe the cache and restart the phone. Took a good 4 or 5 minutes to boot after that, but everything has been fine since. Really dont know what initially caused the issue, never happened before. Good thing too, cause BLU told me that they would send me a RMA within the hour and I still havent heard from them. Think this will be my last BLU phone. Thanks for the assist.

[Blu Pure XL] num1greeter:
This happened to me for first time yesterday. Bought the phone earlier this year and everything worked fine. I restarted the phone because my sound recorder app froze up twice on open and the infinite boot started until the battery died. Tried the {power}{vol up} thing, didn't work to stop it, so I put it in my car and went back to the conference I was attending. Battery was dead when I got out. Contacted BLU by phone and they started a ticket for me, but I figured I'd see if other people were having this issue and learn what they did because I'd rather not be out of a phone for however long it takes for BLU to replace mine. Stumbled on this page. I never rooted my phone. And BLU only sent one wireless update since I've had the phone. I'm trying to get into the menu by connecting to the computer. Worked the first time, I cleared cache, and tried to backup my files, but I'd taken out the SD card in expectation of sending it to BLU. So, Powered off the phone, put the card back in, and now I haven't been able to get the menu back. Still working on it, if there are any suggestions anyone drops on me before Tuesday when I'll likely ship it (or at least hope to because I'll be yelling at them Monday), I'd appreciate it.
[Blu Pure XL] num1greeter:
Update

I tried to flash the phone, but the bootloop apparently wouldn't allow that. I had 0.0% progress after 3 hours. I then tried to go back into the menu you get from {Power}{Vol UP}: still no go. So, I started to take the phone apart again to get ready for shipping. The battery was still low so it didn't take long for it to die after I unplugged it from the computer. Out of curiosity, I tried to repeat finding the menu like I did earlier that day (conditions were that the phone had no charge when I connected it to the computer, and my SD card was removed.) No go. But, then I hit {Power}{Vol Up}{Vol Down} just to see what happened, and boom. My phone loaded up. No loop... Figured somehow the files had copied and the status bar was wrong. Turned the phone off, put my SD card back in and turned the phone on. Loop reappears ...I waited for the phone to die again, took out the SD, attempted to turn it on and the loop was there. Connected it to the computer and hit all 3 buttons, and the phone loads up. So, now I'm confused. Is there any way that the problem is some crappy connection to the SD?

I just ordered my phone from HTC's site. I was quite surprised to see I got charged tax on my order.

According to US law, they can only charge tax in states where they physically have a presence. In looking at their e-commerce partner, DR Globaltech, they only have physical locations in CA, WA, MN, and PA.

Given that I live in Maryland, how can they charge me tax? It's not like I bought it thru the carrier our anything like that.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] robsw:
This doesn't answer the original question, but technically, the issue is whether they can force the company to collect sales tax, not whether they can impose it. Paying sales tax is the obligation of the purchaser of the product not the seller. If a company has a physical presence in the state, the state has jurisdiction over the company and can require them to collect the tax and pay it on behalf of the purchaser. If there is no presence, the state can't force them to collect the tax, but the company can do so voluntarily. Even if they don't, the purchaser still is obligated to pay the tax and the state can charge you with tax evasion if you don't and collect the tax plus interest and penalties. This is why, from time to time, states have sued out of state companies to get their records of sales into the state. In many states, you are expressly required to include on your income tax return the value of any internet purchases made in the year on which you didn't pay sales tax and pay it then. If you don't, they can go after you for failing to report as well as failure to pay the tax.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] clerkp:
I did an online chat raising the same issue with them and they simply said they are required to charge tax. I agree that something is fishy though. I live in Pa. and I don't think HTC has any presence in Pa. that would obligate them to collect tax.

It is because HTC isn't shipping the phone, they use a 3rd party company for their supplier. Can't recall the name of it off the top of my head. But if "they" have a storefront in your state, then you get taxed.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Superguy:
I mentioned the supplier and where their locations were in the country. Since they have an office in Pittsburgh, it makes sense tax is charged in PA.

It's one thing if they have to collect it legally. Otherwise, they just may be pocketing it.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] datafoo:
This has been mentioned already but It's because they're internet orders and just like Amazon they're required to collect the tax for 45 states.

It has nothing to do with storefronts or brick and mortar retail operations (traditional Nexus).

EDIT: Taken from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketplace_Fairness_Act This passed the Senate May 6, 2013

"The federal government has considered legislation--the Marketplace Fairness Act of 2013--that would affect large online retailers and how online sales taxes are collected in all states. The proposed federal law would allow states to require sellers not physically located in their state to collect taxes on online and catalog sales made to people in their state. Sellers that make $1 million or less in annual sales and have no physical presence in the state would be exempt from this requirement. States would have to meet certain criteria to simplify their sales tax laws and make sales tax collection easier before they could require sellers to collect the tax. "

This bill was reintroduced in 2015.

Residents of the 45 states with sales and use tax must pay tax on their online purchases. However, according to the Supreme Court rulings in National Bellas Hess v. Illinois (1967) and Quill Corp. v. North Dakota (1992), retailers, including catalog and online sellers, only need to collect sales and use tax for states where they have a physical presence (This is traditional Nexus).

If an online retailer does not collect sales tax at the time of purchase, the consumer must pay the use tax due directly to the state. While business compliance with use tax filing is quite high, consumer compliance is rather low. <--- In other words HTC and others collect taxes to be compliant because consumers are generally not reliable enough to be compliant. This is practical application in compliance preparation for potential changes in the law.

The Marketplace Fairness Act seeks to increase compliance and tax collections by shifting the responsibility for payment from consumers to retailers.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Superguy:
Looks like this is a gray area. Only 4 states require taxes on sales bound for other states where they have no physical presence. DR and HTC don't appear to be in any of them.

While not required, more sites are collecting taxes than before. Amazon was noted as an exception for not doing it.

Of course I'm screwed since Amazon set shop in Baltimore up.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] svengalis:
amazon does not collect tax on all purchases and the only reason they tax me sometimes now is because they put a distribution center here a few years ago.

ive also ordered from ebay and other online retailers that have not collected taxes on my purchases.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] datafoo:
Yeah I get that about Amazon, I was super tired and not communicating well and tried to edit my post but wasn't very clear.

As for other vendors, just because they don't charge doesn't mean they shouldn't charge.

What I'm trying to say is HTC is carrying the burden of tax compliance for customers.

If a person want's to see if they're charging tax inappropriately; someone from Oregon, Montana or the other 3 states that don't have sales tax would need to check if they were charged tax on their orders. Because of the burden of compliance HTC is carrying, they're doing everyone a favor by removing the burden of tax compliance from the consumer for the 45 states that do have sales tax.

As previously stated by others if you live in a state with sales or use tax, as a consumer you're required to account for any appropriate tax if not charged by the vendor ie: consumer carry the burden of tax compliance.

It's not so much that but rather HTC is the first vendor I've ever bought from who's charged tax for a use tax. So of course it's going to bring a WTF, and no I don't want to pay it if it's not required.

Use tax is a new thing to me, and I've never heard of it before. If the whole reason is protectionist for my state so I "buy local", it's stupid to charge it still when no one in my state is selling the item.

I pay enough in taxes to this darn state already. :p
