This is the steps to transfer contacts from Gmail to cellphone:

Step 1. Unlock your Android phone and enter the "Settings" on the device.

Step 2. Choose "Accounts & Sync" under the "Settings" section and elect the "Add account" option.

Step 3. Tap "Google" from the list and click the "Next" button to go to the next interface.

Step 4. Hit the "Sign in" button if you already have a Google account and then enter your username and password. If not, you need to create a Google account at first.

Step 5. After entering your Google account, you can see there are many file types under the "Sync" setting. Just mark the "Contacts"

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Syabro:
The phone hangs with the inscription "Sony" on a white background during normal startup or recovery, it does not matter. It connects in fastboot mode to the PC, but does not want to do anything. It enters flashmod mode (green LED), but neither linux nor windows can see new devices. What is the problem and how to solve it? :confused:
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] nuficek:
I have a Huawei Mate 10 Pro a couple of weeks and I'm really happy with the phone. But I have an occasional issue. The phone suddenly locks and the lock screen starts flickering. The battery indicator is also flashing between current level and 0%. The only way to get rid of this is to restart the phone. Does anybody have the same issue?

To be honest it's my wife's phone. So I have to investigate a bit. I don't have FB account. But she uses messenger constantly and also watches videos on YouTube or other streaming apps. It happened again a couple minutes ago. She was watching YouTube but she wasn't chatting on Messenger. It also happened when the phone was laying on the table and nobody touched it. So I really don't know what can cause this issue.

Hi

I'm off to the US in a month. I've got an unlocked UK MDA Vario ROM 1.6.2.4 WWE Radio 01.12.10. I've ordered a couple of T-mobile prepaid sims from the US so that my family and I can keep in touch over there without being stung by rediculous roaming charges. I gather the Vario will work with my own sim over there but will it work if I put the US sim in it? or do I need to start changing the ROM of the phone?

(I've also got an M1000 (UK) and a couple of Siemens CL75 poppy phones which are also unlocked and should work over there with UK sims)

If there's no joy with my existing phones I'll just get a couple of cheap prepay phones when I'm over there but I'd prefer not to if I don't need to.

Many thanks

Regards

Twojags
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zabardast_1:
YUP !!!

It'll work perfectly,provided as you say its SIM unlocked,but if its not sim unlocked then I'm afraid,you won't be able to use t-mobile sims.Download the WST tool and verify the locked/unlocked status of your phone or insert sim of any other network in the phone other then the official sim you are using and check if it works or not.

Cheers!

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] Exterial:
Let me just say this first, i'm not an idiot and i've done firmware flashing, rooting, etc plenty of times on my old phone before.

I have, as well, spent extensive time researching but came up with mixed results since it seems like this issue is different depending on a number of factors.

Anyhow, s4 broke so i needed a new phone and found a sweet deal on ebay, Huawei p9 lite for 95€, literally nothing better you could get for that price. Its only a couple months old, no scratches, nothing.

There was only one problem.

The camera app doesn't work, whether through the app itself or other apps such as whatsapp, that's why the guy reduced the price so heavily.

Anywho first thing i thought of is "software problem", i'm no expert but it seemed to me that it's a software issue and not a hardware one, and software issuesn are relatively easily fixed.

Another thing to notice is that he bought the phone online and it came in a G9 box.

Google tells me it's a Chinese model.

Oh yeah and the camera app did work, but then he updated the phone and it stopped working.

Anyway i know WHAT to do, flash mm and stay there or update to nougat.

But i don't know how, well i do but every guide seemed a little different and i do not want to risk my phone at all.

I require help in the way of you guys either telling me what to do, or giving me a link to a guide that is suited to my case model number and all.

So here's the relevant info.

Tl;dr:

Help me reflash firmware to get rid of test keys

Model: Huawei VNS-21

Build: NRD90M test-keys

Emui: 5.0

Android: 7.0

Oh yeah when i scroll down in the options and click on certificate i get this illuminati looking triangle with the words "serbia" under it whatever that means, thought that might be important info.
[Google Chromecast] WlaKom:
I bought Google Chromecast 2.0 with the hope that I will be able to connect HTC Desire 626 with older Sony Bravia.

On the TV screen I have:

WIKIDISPLAY

version 5.12.00

DLNA (iOS compatible)

(no name) - 192.168.49.1 -> RHXY-529F3C - 192.168.1.9 -> Netiaspot

From HTC Connect:

RHXY-529F3E-ITV (can not connect)

RHXY-529F3E-DMR (connected for dlna)

But nothing changes on the TV screen.

I tried to get something through Google Home but without any result.

When I switched Chromcast to Miracast, I can see the same thing on the Tv screen as on a smartphone, but the connection was always broken, too slow.

Question. How do I get the correct HTC Desire 626 connection with Chromcast 2.0?

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edozier:
Many of the custom roms were built for prior bootloaders and some have issues or may not be supported on the latest qi5 bootloader. Fused means that once you flash it you can no longer flash an earlier one. Once you do it prior versions will fail to flash in Odin.

As far as installing Xposed. There was a Wanam version in a thread on here that installed via FlashFire I believe and was specific for ARM devices. I would search for Xposed ARM and see if that is what you are looking for. I have used it in the past and it worked...not sure if the slowness was due in part to it or the horrible cpu governing on the engineering build...

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bigblueshock:
You should install SignalCheck Lite/Pro. This will tell you exactly what band you're on. Most common are 13, 4, and 2. Not that it's easy to change your band, but cycling airplane mode might help.

If you're on Band 13 (700 MHz) with that kind of signal, and live in a populated area, I'm not surprised.

Band 4 and 2 offer higher capacities/faster speeds. These are also known as LTE Advanced/XLTE (old term) (1700 and 1900 mhz I believe).

Cycling airplane mode may put you on 2 or 4. Signal will probably be weaker, but will be faster. The higher the frequency, the harder it is for signal to penetrate through objects, walls, and other stuff. But higher frequency offers more bandwidth capabilities.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Briankbl:
I've tried cycling airplane mode as suggested, but it always locks into 700. Never any other bands.

[HTC One E8] tabletguy2017:
My phone is an HTC One E8 running Android 6.0.1 with an Android security patch level of June 1, 2016 so I suspect I am vulnerable to Blueborne and possibly other security issues. Since HTC and/or Sprint do not seem to have any interest in releasing a patch I am hoping to be able to figure out how to build an Android release and then add the security patches. When I contacted HTC about the patch their suggestion was that I just turn off Bluetooth whenever I wasn't using it.

It looks like CyanogenMod is now LineageOS and it seems that LineageOS supports the M8.

Is the E8 similar enough to the M8 that I can use the instructions for building M8 and have it work on the E8?

I am happy enough with the phone on Marshmallow that I don't really want to move to a later version of Android; I just want this version to be update to date on it's security patches. If I get to remove some of the unwanted apps that Sprint forces into the phone then that's just all that much better.

Any pointers to how to make a ROM for the E8 would be great. It seems that there are hardware specific pieces I need and HTC is refusing to provide any support for finding them to build a custom ROM.

Microsoft to free up its software codes

BY RICHARD J. DALTON JR | richard.dalton@newsday.com

February 22, 2008

Local software developers can more easily develop products that work with Vista, Office and other Microsoft products now that the software giant will release free documentation for developers, executives said.

Microsoft, which previously released such information only under a trade-secret agreement, charging licensing fees and royalties, said yesterday it would release the information free online.

The change comes a month after the European Union launched an antitrust investigation on suspicions Microsoft blocked developers of competing software from gaining access to its products.

The European Union expressed skepticism at Microsoft's shift, saying the "announcement follows at least four similar statements by Microsoft in the past on the importance of interoperability."

Microsoft also has been forced to open its software because of the growing open-source movement, which makes software code freely available so others easily can integrate applications with it.

Microsoft said it would immediately release 30,000 pages of documents on Windows software that runs PCs and centralized computer servers, followed by similar information on Office 2007.

Dan Galvez, managing partner of Hedgehog Development Llc, a software and technology consulting company in Holbrook, said the release is "a huge benefit."

Hedgehog recently created customized software to allow an international bank based in Manhattan to manage and share research documents using Microsoft Office.

"We weren't able to take advantage fully of Word," Galvez said. "We had to build our own functionality."

But with Microsoft's documentation, Hedgehog would have been able to use built-in tools from Microsoft Office to design the software for the bank, speeding up the development time, Galvez said.

It's like seeing "the secret recipe of grandma's homemade sauce," said Bob Venero, president and chief executive of software developer Future Tech Enterprise Inc., based in Holbrook. "They're giving those ingredients that help make Microsoft what it is." Recently, Future Tech installed software that allows health-care personnel to instantly view X-rays on PCs. But the software remains separate from Office.

With the upcoming release of the Office documentation, Future Tech would be able to seamlessly integrate the software with Office, making it easier to e-mail the X-rays via Outlook software or place it in a Word document.

"I call it 'open-source day,'" Venero said of yesterday's announcement. "I think it's a huge deal."
