Very confused

Guys, Ive been reading and experimenting on adding programs and have failed. Ive got 6.1 installed, now Im trying to do the english keyboard and install sirius, I put it on the phone and click on the setup it does a bunch of stuff and thats it. Thanks for any help on this
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
what kind of stuff? like does the phone do backflips or break dance?

be a little more specific man..

for the keyboard go look in the sticky ontop of this forum and download the keyboard file to your pc. plug your phone into the pc and let it sync. then take that file and through activesync > explorer put it on your phone

on your phone, go to where that file is located and just execute it..install to device. then reboot the phone when its done installing.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Stop opening new threads for the same topic...first last warning.

Keep using the same thread.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
there are sticky's full of instructions for installing new roms....followed by 1000 pages of the same questions and the same answers.

i wasnt trying to be a jerk.i was honestly asking because id like to know how he installed his 6.1 so we can try to make it a lot easier on n00bs that ask the same questions time and time again. since he seems like a new user, hes the one to ask right?
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
You honestly think hes the one? I didn't think installing cabs was that hard. Put cab on phone, click on it from explorer, and wait just a bit, Done. I really don't think he is the chosen one. In fact, I would venture a guess that it was pure luck he was able to get 6.1 flashed at all. No offense. I nominate Gixxum to be his personal tutor
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
which is why id like to know how or what instructions he followed.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I didn't think you was being a jerk, infact i found your answer rather commicle, so i had to reply with comedy, i just imagined he followed the forum thread and think from his answer i was correct? But maybe not?

Biglarge what's the answer?
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
Im glad you guys are having fun at my expense, this is how I figured it out. It was posted in this forum, I wish I had the name on it, but I give thanks to ever wrote this and am sorry I didnt have the nameHeres how to beat the 270 error.

When running the installer, "push any key" through the first few steps as it says.

When the queue comes up saying "press center key and screen should turn white", "press any key to continue"

FIRST - press any key, to bring up the next queue

SECOND - now push the center button on your phone, and it should turn white

THIRD - push any key on your PC to start the actual flash.

If you do step 2 before 1, it will still continue onto the flash screens, but will Error 270 at 1-10%.....

Hope this helps some of you!

This was the little thing that made all the difference for me. I have done my reading. Thanks to alll
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
Oh and sorry for the second post on same subject .:(
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Maybe if next time you are more clear with what you are trying to get help on. We can help you.

Error 720 is/has nothing to do with "Installing programs"

Think about it.
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
That was regards to gixxum, and in my post of installing programs, I clearly stated installing the keyboard and I believe the sirius program. I am sorry for all the confusion. Later
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
I know I use a blackjack, but whats the 720 error? :rolleyes:

BigLarge: we're just trying to have fun, did you get your cabs installed?:)
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
Im almost afraid to say it, but no, I put them on the phone and it seems to install but nothing after that, I have learned to type with what ever text is on there though. :D
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
well I can't help you with keyboard problem, thats dash specific, but what about google maps?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Did you reboot your phone?
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
try app unlocking the phone then reinstall...thats all i can think of
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
Thanks again guys, I have unlocked the phone unless there is something different with unlocking apps. Anyway Im gonna take a break and do some more reading. Thanks again guys
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
I'm just going to say even though this thread was funny and the same ol' same ol' but with google maps and 6.1 still hasn't been a success for me. I know laugh all you want. I had it working fine on tmobile official 6 and HTC flashed 1.33. But not on Ricky's. Yes It is application unlocked. HTC Unlocked as well. I put gm cab in main storage reset. Put it on storage reset. Still get the default San Fransisco with no "my location." In other words how gay is that. Just kidding. I've read the thread a 1000 times but I just said screw it since I was ready to launch my mobile across the room. So, yeah maybe I'm the stooge but something doesn't want to give. I saw alternatives like mapquest cab but I have a gps for my car not that it wouldn't be nice to have gm. So, in other words Biglarge even the best of us have problems so don't take it to heart. We have all been there.
[HTC Excalibur] N6546R:
Not to offend, but have you looked to see if My Location is enabled (Menu | Options | Enable My Location)?

Perry

www.kidpub.com
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
Yes of course....I always would get an error that says my location is currently unavailable. I understand that this occurred originally when I first installed on Tmobile 6 but then an application solved that. I have reinstalled that a few times just in case and rebooted but no dice!

***Ok Well I went to google maps and got a newer version that I originally was using. It worked fine. Now I swear on my life I tried for like 8 hours one day last month and it wouldn't work for the life of me. I feel like a chotch but I was seriously hoping to make a point that it was conflicting with something on the Rom.
[HTC Excalibur] biglarge:
No offense taken guys, Im just gonna have to do more reading, but as for now Im happy, I put a kick ass background on and the front slide bar turned I guess what you would call clear and I think its cool as hell. Thanks again guys, this is an awesome site. Later
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
yeah, they did come out with a new version to work with 6.1, I assumed you were trying the newest version. The old version didn't work with the My Location feature.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] helldivex:
Hey guys this is probably a lame question... does any risk come with buying a phone with an unlocked boot loader?

I bought an OnePlus 5 from ebay used in great shape. The seller advised the the phone was rooted with Android 10.

When i start the phone it does have a warning advising the bootloader is unlocked and cautions the OS may not be secure.

The phone did have what seemed to be a fresh install of Android 10... but after trying a few root check apps ... didnt seem to be rooted.

I went ahead and reinstalled android 10 ...

Now that it has what i know to be a clean copy of A10... do i need to worry about the unlocked boot loader? Could there be any other

way my personal info could be compromised ?

Thanks!!!

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] NoBodyUKnow:
Yesterday, I loaded the AirAudio app (v9) to stream to my Apple Airport Express. I downloaded and installed the AirAudio module (v6) on Magisk (v20.4).

Among other problems, my display went to full brightness, and although the display brightness slider is still there and slides, the brightness does not change. In addition, my music player will not play ( songs do not progress in the "Play" monitor), and I have lost all sound from the phone.

I've removed the app and uninstalled the Magisk module, but the problems remain.

Also, camera now locks up when snapped and other apps lock up.

Anyone else having issues with this app on LOS? None of these problems have occurred prior to loading AirAudio and module.

Thanks!

NBUK
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] funtax:
Hey there,

AirAudio has been kicked by Google because they didn't like a link to a rooting-website inside the description anymore, written 7 years ago.

Its successor is called AirMusic and allows to stream some apps (eg. YouTube, YT Music, Deezer, PodcastAddict , radio.de, Plex and more, you have to try it out) without root on Android 10+.

On rooted devices, all audio can be transmitted.

To get around the Magisk-issues with LOS, please contact the developer for a TWRP-flashable zip.

I just received and installed the latest release (00WW_4.15C) and by default it chooses a random MAC address. As my router is using static DHCP based on MAC, I had no wifi connection, I had to reset the settings... it is SSID based, so for my home network I keep the real MAC, but all others still use random MAC.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NekciuQ:
I don't know what that icon is but it keeps tripping me out, i keep thinking it's 3G or some other internet provider but it's that icon that looks like a G or is a G and it's supposedly a connection icon.

Thanks in advance if someone can answer this :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Pharaohnough:
G is for GSM (or GPRS). In either case it means you have 2G coverage.

You can also get an "E" for edge which is also 2G (2.5 actually)

When you're in a 3G area, the icon will show "3G"

When you're in an HSDPA area, the icon will show "H"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NekciuQ:
Well this is my first smart phone but so i'm not sure what GSM or GPRS is so do you mind telling me and how do i turn it off or do you have to pay for it? I'm confused :(

thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Pharaohnough:
You pay for usage- meaning that even if it stays connected all the time, you only pay when it's actually downloading something. Be careful though because the Diamond has a lot of applications that initiate the connection on their own (email, weather, GPS, etc)

Search and ye will find other threads here that talk about this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NekciuQ:
So there isn't a way to turn it off? or i should just make sure all my programs i have don't have GSM?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Pharaohnough:
There is a way to turn it off.

Search and you'll find it in the same threads. The app is called NoData
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NekciuQ:
meaning if i have this program on and both the wireless and other one is disabled i don't have to worry about that G being there because it won't start dling on it's own?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrchoice:
I have two N4s with broken screens, one of which has USB debugging enabled etc.

I created a TWRP backup of boot, system & data on the one with USB enabled and transferred it over to the other one.

I now can't restore that backup. I have to use TWRP's open recovery script in an ADB shell because the screens are broken. I am using:

adb shell twrp restore /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/"serial no"/

but which initially works, then says "no partitions selected for restore".

If I put "SDBM" after the path, it says "setting restore options: SDBM" then the same thing - "no partitions selected for restore".

If I put "SDBM" after "restore" i.e. before the path name it says "Restoring SDBM... Unable to locate backup 'SDBM'"

I can't find any help via google and I'm stuck now - how can I restore a backup with adb shell twrp?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
From what you wrote, I see that you provided the path to the backup directory instead of to the specific backup directory.

Your path is too short because it does not contain the name of the directory that was created during the backup.

If possible, always try to paste a significant piece of text from the terminal where you performed the action, it really makes it easier to find a solution.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrchoice:
Hi, thanks, I got there not long after I posted this HOWEVER adding the specific backup directory now gives me an error about digest verification (I didn't generate an MD5 hash when I made the backup). This is when trying to restore using the same flag that I used to skip MD5 generation when I made the backup.

It asks me to deselect digest verification but I can't do that on the touch screen (as it's broken) and don't know if it's possible to do this via abd?

Thanks!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidxxxD:
That's a windows malware... Seems a bit unlikeley.

If you believe your system might be infected, a reflash of the AP file and a factory reset should clean it up in most cases, but you'll lose all data.

I think my samsung s7 edge has the autoclean maleware

How can I do it without losing all data?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidxxxD:
- Copy the contents of your internal storage to a safe place.

- If you're using TWRP, backup /data and Copy the Backup folder to a safe place, you will have to reinstall TWRP as well. Google Play will offer to reinstall the apps when you log in. Also you can backup all app data to your computer with the adb backup command.

- Put the phone in download mode.

- Open Odin flash tool and make sure the cable is good and your device is properly recognized.

- Select the AP file from your current firmware, if it has a USERDATA file select that as well, you won't have to factory restet after. When using Heimdall remove the .md5 file extension first.

- Turn off auto-reboot if you don't have a USERDATA file.

- Begin installing and hope for the best.

- Reboot to recovery and select Wipe Data/Factory reset.

- Phone should be clean now, only restore the stuff you are absolutely sure isn't infected.

If the weird stuff persists, try repeating these steps with the full firware.

Hello.

I had started a thread a while back about "Installing Google Play Services on JPay JP5S tablet" - in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

Now, all of a sudden, it appears to have been deleted without explanation. Can someone tell me why? Did the thread violate some XDA forum rule? If so, what rule?

I'd appreciate any assistance with this inquiry. I'm new to this forum, but I don't want to repeat any mistakes if I made any.

Hello new fellow ! Welcome to XDA.

First of all, have a look at the rules, it's short and you'll find why your post vanished.

https://xdaforums.com/announcement.php?a=81

Second of all, most newbies here misplaces post, so:

Questions post belongs to Q'n'A section only.

Also, XDA is a very big forum! So always prefer reading over asking, because if you had an issue someone surely had it before. And reposting the same question make the site more and more slower.

A big mistake newbies make is asking before even searching on Google, XDA isn't the only place in the web to find answers, so please, search deeply before posting.

XDA was once accused (a little less now) of "n00b bashing" because more experimented users had harsh responses to questions they saw everytime. If you read thoroughly before posting, this won't happen.

Also, be respectful, etc...

Everytime someone helps you with a post, please hit the "thank" button. It's the way you say thank you instead of saying thank you on a post (that saturate XDA for nothing).

Finally, when you report a bug, please make a logcat and attach it to your post. That's the most common mistakes that even senior members make sometimes.

Also check out the "XDA New user Guide" (1) and a How to logcat thread (2)

1)https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1699450

2)https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1726238

Thanks for asking that, very few new ones takes time thinking how they can better act here on XDA, showing you will to do better proves that every person with a little bit of common sense know that internet has rules also, and that a forum doesn't organize itself alone.

Thank again :)

Have a good day :svetius:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abuhuraira007:
Thanks, but your reply still does not shed any light on why my thread was deleted.

I may be a noob to this forum, but I am not a noob to forums in general. I had already read the forum rules, and I believed then (and still believe now) that my thread had complied with the rules.

In particular, I had conducted a search prior to posting, but there were (and still are) no threads on the topic. A current search of "JPay JP5S" reveals five hits: two threads (one of which is my old thread) which are deleted, two threads which I do not yet have permission to access (but which deal with different topics anyways), and this thread here. Thus, my thread was not redundant of a previously asked and answered question.

Is the JPay JP5S a taboo or forbidden topic to discuss? If so, an indication to that effect would be nice. If not, I would still like to know why my thread was deleted. Again, I obviously don't want to repeat whatever mistake I might have made with the last one, if I made any.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raiz:
That's weird indeed...

There aren't any taboos in XDA regarding this device... You could also try to PM moderators to know what's the issue with your thread, but include this time what you said in it, so you can have explanations. I can't tell you since the thread isn't in front of me. Here is the list of mods in XDA:
