"no service" problem

I have a problem.

When I reboot phone yesterday, it stopped to ask for sim card pin. On the Today screen is written "No service". Once again I rebooted phone and it does not give anything. But when I go to Settings>Phone suddenly I got asked to enter a pin, but nothing else. It is still no service.

It is happening from time to time. I do not know how to deal with it (exepting reflashing rom again - because I do not know how to do hardreset in the Tornado with Kamikadze WM6.1 pro RC5 rom installed).

So, when it will happen again how to repair it without reflashing rom?

what should I do to avoid this situation?
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
I think the corner direction said by smoma must be direction between top-left, top-right, bottom-left, etc, i.e. 45 degree directions. I think such directions are not supported by hardware so it is not.

@freak1704: if there is any good complete lock application please suggest me and if it works with Long End key it will be more appropriate.
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
Ummm... you don't know how to hardreset your device?

And you have read this thread?

Especially this?

@ thacen: Correctly, the joystick did not support diagonal movement.

Have you tried S2U2, which I've suggested?
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
S2U2 is a slide lock like iphone, so it is meant for touch screens..

Are you sure it is safe for non touchy tornandos?:confused:
[HTC Tornado] luisjoseb:
Hi all, i flash my phone to this ROM again, this ROM it's very Wonderful, i try to install de RC6 but this install in Russian Language and i had to back to the RC5.

If any one are interested in xT9 dictionaries, i found a xT9 CAB in some languages such

1. Danish

2. German

3. English

4. Spanish

5. Finnish

6. French

7. Italian

8. Norwegian

9. Russian

10. Swedish

In this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2206366, i'm using spanish xt9 and this work fine on my phone

Bye
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
In S2U2 you can use the d-pad (joystick) instead of touching the screen. You can set it in S2U2 options.

Ok, ok, I'll grab my Xda Phone and test it... ;)
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
Ok, testet it:

With switch dpad on (under others) S2U2 can be unlocked by moving joystick to the right.

But...

If you leave the other setting on default, the device switches fully off after Power off timeout.

When you select "but blank screen only" or "Don't Suspend Power" the display turns off after timeout and it won't turn on after unlock. :mad:

Result: unuseable. :(
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
Thanks freak1704 for the update. I am sorry for pulling you to the test..:p

please tell me if you find any good one.
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
I have a bad habit.. my patience quotient is very low:mad:

I tested the S2U2 by A_C

and result is acceptable. It is working Ok on my sp5m

Only thing is to access settings I need to connect on PC as there the new fakecursor is not working.

my setting is:

Lock when device wakes up - on

On battery Power:

Lock when backlight turns off - on

Power Off in - off

but blank screen only - on

Blank screen on Talk - off

On External Power:

Lock when backlight turns off - off

Power Off in - off

but blank screen only - on

Blank screen on Talk - off

Others:

DPAD - on

Hide all Soft Keys - off

Top Curtain - on

Unlock after screen rotated - off

Advance:

Don't Suspend Power - off

Safe Mode - off

DirectDraw - on

SMS Patch for Korean - off

Hi freak1704 please check it again;) Try setting DirectDraw on and off and softreset. It may work on your handset too.
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
Wow! Yes, it works! :eek:

My failure was, that I let S2U2 the device switch off or let S2U2 turn the display off.

Now we would have to know how the backlight permanently can be switched on. (for navigation)
[HTC Tornado] Gomer Pyle:
I am using the Backlight Toggler and it is enough for me for navigation (better than always manually change the value in registry)
[HTC Tornado] mc4ren:
I'm having exactly the same issue. No matter I set manually the network, I still get no service. Did you resolve this?
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
I had also faced more or like this problem, no network, not accessible to contacts, etc. In this case the pim.vol is removed or renamed and after softreset a new fresh pim.vol is generated automatically and I sync my contact back. I solved my problem.:D

Regarding S2U2 another plus point is it improves battery backup time;)
[HTC Tornado] smoma:
all tornado device not support diagonal movement? my device is sp5 . do can solution for this proplem ?

excuse me for my english
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
My Tornado is a O² Xda Phone, which is similar to the SP5m and afaik have all Tornados only joysticks with 4-way-navigation. There is no solution possible because of hardware restrictions.

---------- 8< ---------- cut here ---------- 8< ----------

For the backlight-problem: Great tip from Gomer Pyle! But I've made a big mistake on first using this tool. :rolleyes: You have first click on SAVE DEFAULTS! With saved defaults for backlight time you can now switch to infinite backlight or normal time by clicking on BACKLIGHT TOGGLER. (I had first clicked on Backlight Toggler and then on Save Defaults, so my backlight would never go off. DOH! :eek:)

After searching the developers up and down I've found the registry setting for backlight timeout. You can control the time by setting it (in seconds) in the DWORD-Value of HKCU/Control Panel/Power/Display. If the DWORD Display not exist, you have to create it.

I hope that Kamikadze can implement this setting for backlight timeout to the normal control panel in the next ROM he made.

any update???? :confused:
[HTC Tornado] foreigna:
t9

I still cant type into the command prompt because its just printing out digits... the only way to type is to use the fakecursor and the vga keyboard...

is there any way around this? I read the whole thread and someone mentioned this problem but never posted any solutions...

thx :)
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
I think it not possible to type alphabet in command prompt except by using vga keyboard. You know this rom is for ppc, though it runs quite satisfactorily on tornado there should be some limit, you have to be feel satisfied with using fakecursor.;)
[HTC Tornado] freak1704:
@ foreigna: for better understanding: which command prompt did you mean?

I've noticed no input problems till now.
[HTC Tornado] thacen:
I thought command prompt means dos cmd command window. In that window, it is not possible to type alphabet characters except through vga keyboard.

@ freak1704: if there is any possible way pl tell us.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] dextercrypt:
Yes it's there in my rom too. So the battery manager and adaptive battery is same. I don't think so. because battery manager stops apps which consume more battery but adaptive battery hibernates apps.which aren't being used frequently. It's more like greenify .

Hello, recently I've used flashify, and I tried to flash a twrp exclusive file. When I flash it, my phones screen turns black and I cannot power on the phone. Can anyone please help me?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinavp649:
Its sounds like you have flashed the recovery incorrectly. Flashify provides flashing of recovery and boot. Most probably you have flashed recovery in boot mistakenly and thats the cause of your phone not booting up.

your device have a Mediatek helio p60 chip, which makes it possible to reflash things using sp flash tools but before that. You have to fetch stock boot.img for your device to make it work again. Just download the firmware for your device and extract boot.img from it and reflash using sp flash tools.

Make sure to have proper Preloader drivers installed in your system before going ahead otherwise it'll not detect your phone. And the phone must have to be in switched off state. After that load the scatter file in the tool which I believe will come with the firmware package. After loading the scatter you'll see a list of things that will be flashed in your device. Just check or uncheck the things you want to flash. I suggest you to flash both recovery and boot back to stock and it will be running like normal.

Good luck

Happy & safe flashing:fingers-crossed:

Hit thanks if I helped you.:laugh:
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
I'd like to add a font to my device for use with apps like Tasker and Minimalistic Text. From what I have read on the forum it looks like a matter of adding the font file to /system/fonts and (perhaps) rebooting.

Of course this does not work or I would not be writing this thread. Font files (I'm using TTF) handled in this manner do not appear anywhere. I cannot access them through Tasker (I can access each of the stock fonts that are present in the folder). Minimalistic Text is probably a separate issue and I may need to try and contact the developer on that one.

So...is there something else? Is there a font "table" somewhere that needs to be updated? Is there something special about TTF fonts for the NST/G which makes TTF fonts from other sources unrecognizable to the system?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I'd have to look how those apps access their fonts.

Normally in Android you only have serif, sans-serif, monospace.

They get mapped through /system/etc/system_fonts.xml

For fallback there is /system/etc/fallback_fonts.xml

For older B&N Reader, the fonts are selected directly by path in /system/fonts from a preset list of fonts.

For newer B&N Reader, the fonts are selected from raw resource assets (in Vendor.apk) from a preset list of fonts.
[Nook Touch General] nmyshkin:
Yes, on the original NST there is no /system/etc/system_fonts.xml, just the fonts in the /system/fonts folder and, I guess, some mysterious fixed list somewhere.

What I discovered by trial and error is that one sure way to get a new font is to rename the new font as one of the existing fonts. This, of course, eliminates the original font. I learned this the hard way when a "font installer" app did it without warning. Luckily I have two NSTs so I was able to restore the font.

Tasker cannot access anything but the three basic font types unless the text is in HTML format, but even there it can only access the fonts in /system/fonts and

only

those in the secret list. So no just dropping the font into the folder and rebooting.

Minimalistic Text turned out to be more amenable. Its issue is a generally poor install on the device. Perhaps there are permissions that need fixing. I corrected initial problems when I first got it by copying the settings.xml file from an installation of the same version on a KitKat device. The file from installation on the NST seemed to be malformed in some way. With the fonts (which are simply dropped into any folder you like), it would not create a global.xml file where the "where are they?" information was stored. So I did the same trick again and now that is fixed. In the end, this is an acceptable result for me because the purpose of the custom font is for a widget and the only remaining app through which this ancient version of Tasker can actually make a widget is Minimalistic Text.
[Nook Touch General] SJT75:
Someone asked in another thread about adding fonts. This thread was first in the search I guess as one of the recent about this issue. I know that problem exist with limited choice of fonts for this device that people circumvent by renaming the font of their preferred choice as already existing one on device after safely backing up existing font. Just out of curiosity did someone tried adding these recently published fonts from respected source?

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] bettuccio:
hi everyone, I have problems with the latest MIUI roms, they overheat the device until the touch is blocked. Now I'm looking for a different rom from MIUI that has integrated support for "programmed power" . For me it's an important function and I don't want to lose it. I have tried some aosp Pie roms but none has integrated the programmed ignition such as MIUI. Why no one puts it in the rom ..?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] dev>null:
Because it's a proprietary blob. A few old AOSP roms tried importing it, but it was bugged and unreliable. You'll have the alarm turning on the phone, or programmed switch on/off only on MIUI based roms.

Give RevOS a try.

Wipe cache, dalvik, system and data. Install it, wait 15 minutes for first boot. Set up everything. Wait more 10 minutes. It will become more responsive and stop heating up after a couple of reboots.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] bettuccio:
dear friend I have already tried everything, I changed 4 different ROMs Aosp (clean installation) but I understood now that the problem is not the overheating of the processor but it is the touch screen that is blocked. As for the programmed switch-on I discovered that in some ROMs Aosp Pie if I set the alarm and turn off the phone, this causes the system to start one minute before the alarm sounds. A great solution for me. I did not understand if it is a bug of Aosp as the phone does not charge the battery if it is on but if it is off or I have to plug in the power cord and then restart then charge. I have a feeling it's time to switch phones. Thanks anyway ; }
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] dev>null:
All cool !

which Aosp roms? I'm curious to test ;)

Then said "duck it" and tried to flash on whatever slot with no success.

Then tried flashing TWRP with no success (stock on TWRP logo).

So far I couldnt follow any guide because I cant get ADB to see my phone.

Hi guys!

Before few times i asked this question, but no one answered. Looks like I found a way through. Usually, this option is available for iOS users only.

1. Your photo needs to be blurred - Live Focus, Portrait Mode (gcam) etc, you got the point.

2. Upload the photo to https://www.depthy.me

3. You will see some kind of error. Click load and upload the same picture to create depthmap.

4. You will see the preview of the 3D image now in the next step you need to look at the bottom and click on the image icon.

5. Here you will see the Depth Image Map. Save it.

6. Rename both files to 1.jpg and 1_depth.jpg

7..Upload both files to the desktop version of Facebook.

8. After few seconds you will see new window which says Creating 3D Photo.

10.Done!

hi :)

if i want to begin developing mikro modules for xposed , how would i set up the android emulator in android studio (or possibly something else ) ?

and get a good glimpse of xposed related logs so i can debug correctly.

up until now i only programmed java script (firefox addons) and a onetime a native c++ program with opencv , so for java theres some heavty learning curve for me on how to get this all up and running, especially since this isnt running on my pc but in a virtual environment so i need to debug correctly .

is android studio emulator even the way to go for xposed module dev?

thanx everybody for your hard work

[HTC Startrek] dakiro:
CID unlock

I am a newbie as well, however with the advice on this forum I was able to upgrade my startrek to WM6.

You must do a cid unlock - thanks to this your phone will be taking on the ROMs which are not made by the official sources.

How to do it - look for it better in the forum, and use the older version of the unlock program!
[HTC Startrek] sapphire_pro:
Just for information: It is not necessary to do the CID Unlock for every WM6 ROM. Erofichs ROMs for example can be flashed without a CID Unlock. I also flashed my StrTrk withot CID Unlock but I know that GnattoSplat Roms always need this way of unlock.
[HTC Startrek] jaawa:
Sooo.... What is it, and why would i unlock my Qtek 8500? I already have 6.1 on it...

_JAAWA
[HTC Startrek] mfrazzz:
CID = Carrier ID

When you CID unlock, you are making the phone so its not "locked" to a specific carrier's rom. By doing a CID unlock, you could flash a Cingular 3125 official rom on a QTEK 8500 for instance.

As stated, some (all?) of the cooked roms here are not carrier specific, so CID Unlocking appears to not have to be done. Personally, for what little time it takes to do this, just do it and you won't have to worry about flashing a rom and it not working becuase of carrier info.

NOTE: CID unlocking is different than SIM unlocking. SIM Unlocking is what allows you to use any SIM in the phone. CID unlocking is just for flashing different carrier roms. YOu can be CID unlocked and run a different carrier's rom, but if you aren't SIM unlocked, you can't use their SIM... (hope thats clear).
