Sorry Mods and Admins, if i m postin' this in a wrong place.

Hi y'all developers, while typin' my last post, i realized that i have 100+ posts, and i have become a senior member now. So felt like makin' a thread for testimonials.

I came across xda-developers, last year. I wuz usin' Blue Angel that time, i wuz attemptin' to update my ROM, with the latest one, on the vendor's website. Somethin' went wrong, and my phone got stuck at a grey screen with USB written on it. I tried everything, that a normal user would do. Tried soft-reset, hard-reset, removed battery, nothin' worked. I thought, that would be the end of it, b'cuz warranty wasn't valid as this phone was officialy not available here, that time.:(

Then i searched web, and got results in this website, followed wiki, learnt about BootLoader mode, killed the required processes in the task manager & wuz able to do the update succesfully. Then there wuz no end to it, flashed so many ROMs, enjoyed WM6 on a phone runnin' WM3. Never imagined that:eek: Had this community not been there, my phone would have been nothin' more than a brick.

Here, we have so many personalized applications to share, customized ROMs removing the shortcomings of original ones, shipped with the device. Moreover, we have 'Offline' to discuss about different other topics, to share jokes, incidents and to get suggestions and reviews on the new things, in the market.

Thanks to all the Developers, Moderators & the Administrators(of course:D), for this lovely community.

People who feel, if they got any help from this forum, plz post your testimonials here.:)

UNITED WE STAND, Cheers..

i was totally into nokias and never thought of switching brands.

just about when pocket pcs used to be so bulky- i never thought i needed such a device although it offered much more than nokias.

then came our good ol' magician. when i was on a trip to Dubai i saw this beautiful ppc which was smaller but much higher in specs as compared to the xda IIs

i immediately got it then and there (O2 xda mini).

then one day (when i didn't know about this site) i flashed a wrong rom and my mini showed just USB v1.1. i started searching the www and finally reached this site. i not only got a rom but also wonderful apps which have really enhanced my ppc experience.

but i now feel so unlucky cos' i got a magician. we can not flash wm5 or 6 therefore

no touchflo...no many good things! (if anybody has "good things" pls tell me)

i've helped a number of noobs here who always got a "regional" error when reflashing (of course ...the developers and senior members feel sick repeating it time and again to the new ppl)

i am thinking of getting a new device now but all devices of my choice have a major disadvantage which i would like to list.(point me out if i am wrong):-

1. HTC Touch (slow processor, no dedicated 2.5mm audio jack..and the supplied earphones suck!)

2. HTC TyTN II (HTC is so very reluctant in providing the display drivers..this device is rendered way slower than a magician)

3. HTC Touch Cruise (same case as with tytn II, feels much bigger than touch)

and then windows mobile 7 is on its way and i've come across some screenshots too.

and i seriously doubt the existing devices will be able to be upgraded to wm7. its got some features like dual touch sensitivity which contribute to this doubt.correct me if i am wrong pls. (but very frankly....i have full faith in the developers here who have insanely sharp minds)

and lastly - i have not yet donated any amount till date but i am going to begin soon as i have full plans to get a paypal acount. i understand that the developers here have to sacrifice their hell lot of time to write awesome codes and then to improve them, remove flaws and make them compatible for as many devices as possible.

and then this is a nice thread (thanks to rohit!) ...pls share your experiences -it takes only a minute or two (but it took me more than 15 minites---i am a bit SLOW!!)

thanks a lot

PEACE!!

Hello i have a problem. After failed attempt for rooting we lost the imei of the phone. We had no backup saved anywhere. Im asking any good person here to please send me a backup of ANY imei for Elephone P8000 so we can use it to restore our imei. Please, the phone is important and we need to do this..
[Elephone P8000] ev0lut1on:
Up, nobody? Come on, please, it's somewhat urgent..

[Elephone P8000] ev0lut1on:
I need a backup from a rooter phone. The file itself. XDA has stated a method to get it but it's already lost for me so no way to get it. There's the way.

-Now when you lose IMEI first try this method. Now take the MPDB_001 file which you took backup at the first step and navigate through

Root explorer to this location ->ROOT->DATA->NVRAM->MD->NVRAM->NVD_IMEI.

I'm really begging you to make that backup and send it to me so i can use it to restore my imei address..
[Elephone P8000] mdvirgo92:
Bro don't worry P8K is a MediaTek device and you can easily restore your IMEI from MTK engineer mode even if you have lost it. I have myself lost it x number of times but was always able to restore it either by flashing stock ROM or via MTK engineer mode. Google it and you will get the process.

[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cool Person:
I could careless about finger print at the back, its bad but I will use the Iris scanner Or pattern its not a huge deal when you find alternative. I also do not care about 6 of RAM That much unless samsung figures out how to take advantage of it. I also do not care for 3300 Mah battery since the new processors are reducing power consumption and s8 plus taught us a lesson about lower mah with larger screen on time.

What I would love to see:

- Better battery life (6 Hours Minmum even on Full HD At least!)

- New S Pen features That are innovative

- Faster

- that it doesn't explode or suffer in water resistance test

- that it comes with 128 gb sd card gift

- That bixby some how interacts with the S Pen.

- The the S Pen got the ability to read Text for me.

Other Wise I am not really complaining no thing to complain in the Note 8 it looks almost perfect (ignore finger print that has an alternative or 4k because it drains the battery). as for Dual Horizontal camera samsung must have a reason for this. 4k sucks because VR Is pointless for me at moment, it will increase the battery and display resolution causing cost problems and battery drain for the back I don't care how pretty or ugly it is. it can't be any worse than the Note 5.

What I am loving so far :

- The fact it supports SD Cards. I am buying 200 GB SD Card with the 64 GB Model giving me a total of 230 GB Of Storage (because sd card will be 180 GB total and the 64 gb model will need about 10 GB Of storage for the Stock ROM). Pretty enough for me!

- The fact the screen is Huge and Bezeless Perfect to write on using the S Pen!

I am waiting until samsung surprises me with the Software features of the Note 8.

P.S : Here is the Rumored S Pen :
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] force70:
Ive long wanted to see front firing speakers in samsung devcies...would be awesome.

Now that apple sort of does it samsung should really step up.

I prefer the fingerprint sensor on the back ever since my nexus 6p but not up by the camera like on my s8 plus...its not bad but not ideal either

I didnt like the front sensors on my s6, s7 edge and note 7 because you had to press to turn the screen on then unlock which is stupid.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cadaveri:
So I bought this tablet a couple of months ago and was always amazed by its battery. I could leave the tablet on for days and days that the battery would hold without any problems.

Suddenly and out of nowhere, I started to notice battery drain while the tablet is idle. I would charge it at night and next morning I would have less 30%, something that never happened before. This with Wi-Fi off and pretty much everything else. I know there's always consumption but these numbers don't make any sense.

Recently 7.0 came out, I decided to give it a shot to see if it would fix it. Did nothing, tablet is exactly the same. After installing the new OS version, wiping data and cache, disabling all the unnecessary features I could think of.

Also tried to go back to stock 6.0.1 and the problem is still here. Since nothing helped right now im back to 7.0. I have no apps other than the stock ones and I'm running out of ideas here.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirVss:
Mine too, on 7.1.2 Nougat custom ROM drain like hell even if the tablet it's shutting down, charged at 100 % in the evening and in the morning after boot remaining only 75 %.

Clean install with wipe and everything !

I don't know what's causing this behaviour !
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cadaveri:
Haven't been here in a while, sorry.

I tried everything and since nothing fixed it, I contacted the store and used the warranty, they sent me a new one. Apparently it's a known problem and they were very quick stating that it couldn't be fixed.

Maybe you should try the same, if you haven't already..

Recently there was a hot discussion on how the Android phones are vulnerable to Cloak and Dagger attack.

Then there was this a keylogger that can hide behind the current keyboard UI, recording the keystrokes. Is there currently available any keylogger apks which can do the same?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickiemas:
So after weeks of trying to figure this out I've found what's causing the problem. Not sure how to fix it. When the phone stays on the charger the rotate will stay on. If your rotating stopped before plugging your phone or the charger then simply plug in ur charger and then restart and once ur charger stays plugged in then it should auto rotate some people my need to restart more than once. So in my view I'm thinking there is some electrical problem or lack of power or some how it's linked to the USB port. Please try it and report if u get the same result. Hopefully this will lead to someone finding a solution. Maybe someone can change their USB port and let us know if that solved the problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] an-_-dro:
most of auto rotation become malfunction is because lib file missing. especially if u're in custom rom or stock but doing some debloat.

check in your system/lib folder for file libgnustl_shared.so.

if missing, then auto rotate will not work. but in your case maybe hardware/sensor related problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickiemas:
It would seem like hardware because the file is there.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickiemas:
Ok. So I can say for sure my rotation issue is related to the usb port. At the begining when I plugged in the usb cable and restarted my phone the rotation would continue working until I removed the usb cable and even for a few minutes after removing it would still work

So what I did was get a very small piece of paper and made it into a little ball and push it under the contact of the usb port right up to the back so that the usb cable could still fit properly. The paper is just to brace the usb connection upwards a little and in doing do so my phone even charging better seeing I had charging issues so I guess it's part of the issue. Now I have normal rotation for weeks.

If rotation stops it's because the usb cable has crushed the paper too small so I just replace the paper but so far it's all good. I just dnt have the interest to do a usb port change but I think that would be a more permanent solve. Hope this helps. Just sharing my experience to those of you who have the same issue and can't find a fix.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickiemas:
Usb port changed and rotation working flawlessly. I even recorded over 6000 steps and more than 12 minutes walking. Notified by S health, haven't seen that in a long time
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickiemas:
OK guys sad to say I'm bk on this because after awhile my rotation stopped again. I don't know if the replacement USB port is going bad again as it was a Used USB port or its something else but I have found another fix which seems to be working a few days now.

So this fix will require disassembling your phone again.

What I did was disassemble my device and when I reached to the main board I used a little screw driver to pry off the shine piece of covering that covers some of the chips which includes the gyroscope chip. U guys can google to see where the chip that controls the gyroscope is on your s5.

Then I folded a piece of tape and placed it on top of the gyroscope chip just thick enough so the metal covering when place back on it will squeeze the tape down on the chip. After all that is done reassemble ur device and try it out.

On a side not my proximity sensor was not working properly either and I did the same thing. Folded a piece of tape and place it behind the proximity sensor it will be tight again when phone is reassembled. So far its been working for me so I hope this helps.

I know its an old device and most of u might not see the need to fix a device this old but for those of you who like tinkering with ur device like myself u should try and let me know if it works for u.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pankajbansal3073:
i have samsung SM-G906S. lately i have been facing the problems with auto rotation, proximity sensor and auto brightness adjustment. All these have stopped working. These problems are not with hardware because they vanish when i factory reset the phone of reinstall OS using samsung smart switch. but these problems occur again after some time (a month or two). seems like some problem with samsung firmware. too bad the official support from samsung has stopped for this phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xxxtyp:
Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated!

So my 925T won't connect on USB to any computer. I've tried a number of laptops ranging from windows 7-10. All come back with the same error in the device manager. The error will say the same thing no matter what state the phone is in. The device is currently FRP Locked(My phone, but I accidentally turned off Dev options and restarted it) download mode won't work because of the same error. Can't get into recovery. =[

Last week in a hail Mary, I tore into the phone and replaced the USB board. So I know that's not it....

Any clue what could be going on here? Or atleast a way to get past the FRP lock without Odin or recovery?

Thank you all in advance.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Baffles:
Update: Written up here due to PPCGeeks being down.

Version: 0.1 Test 1

BAF's GPS Launcher allows you to run GPS software that is not coded for the GPS intermediary driver without running Google Maps, Holodux, QuickGPS, etc in the background. On the first run, you will configure the path to your GPS program's exe file, and the timeout.

The path to the exe should be the FULL path (ex: \Program Files\iGo\iGo.exe). The timeout specifies how long the launcher will keep the GPS port opened for the software you are launching. The application has to open on Com 4 (9600 baud) before the timeout for it to remain active. After the timeout, the launcher will close it's open GPS ports and exit, leaving just your GPS software running with GPS working.

If you need to reconfigure, either edit \bafgpsconfig.txt (first line is program, second line is timeout) or delete said text file to have the program show the configuration GUI. Make sure you click the save button on the config page, as that is the only way it will save (out of me overlooking the close button trying to get this released).

The exe can be found here. Just copy it anyplace on your device and run it.

Bug reports and suggestions are nice, but future versions of this app will not be in the form it is now. It will eventually become a background service that opens the GPS as necessary, but for now it is just a launcher.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AstronusX:
Great work Baffles, can you make the app keep running until at least 2-3 satellite constantly show up instead of 20 second. The app should keep run in the background when destinate gps app (tomtom) is currently and when tomtom close, it close it self as well. The reason I ask for this is when I turn off the screen and turn back on the screen while tomtom is running, the gps connection is lost that cannot come backup.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] danewguy:
Does not work for me. I set up the config file to point to the installed location of Tom Tom and timeout set to 60 seconds.

I started the Bafgps app and after a few seconds it launches Tom Tom, I have setup TT to use other NMEA GPS receiver with 4800 baud rate and COM4

TT always displays No GPS Device, after a second try with bafgpsv01t the system locks up and I need to soft reset.

I followed the GPS setup on the titan from this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=363431

what gives? No chip on my XV6800?
