[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vista_user:
Hi to everyone!

I have an old Huawei Ascend Y530 lying around, but I can't use it. The problem is that when I last used it, I thought it would cool to reset the phone by using the hidden Android Menu, when you hold down one of the volume buttons and the power button. I didn't understand anything though. I probably deleted the whole Android partiton. After that, when turned on, the notification LED would blink in red, blue and green, but that stopped after some months, probably because the battery died. It isn't completly dead though because when plugged in, it shows up as "QHSUSB_BULK" and after driver installation as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008". According to ChatGPT, it means that the phone is in Download Mode. I already tried getting the phone back using Qfil, but it always fails with the error "Download Fail: FireHose Fail: FHLoader Fail: The system can't find the specified file"(or similar, I had to translate it). When using an older version of Qfil, the error "Download Fail: Sahara FailSahara Fail". I'm really running out of ideas by now and if anybody knows anything about recovering that phone using Qfil, please give me some advice or if you have the necessary files, please leave them here!

Thanks in advance!

(and I hope it doesn't matter that the screenshots are in german)

[Touch HD General] HTCzar:
Is it possible to link the TF3D Calendar link to open directly in Pocket Informant?
[Touch HD General] Gustopher:
Yes there is. It involves a bolt-on application but I can't remember exactly what it is called - SSMaPa rings a bell, but that may do something else.

I found it quite easily by searching and I would recommend you do the same. Try the Diamond Forum, but you might even find something in this Forum
[Touch HD General] HDuser:
Wiki !! and yes you can point TFLo3d to PI

Solved!

Many thaks to you All.

This HD is a magnificent machine, it´s almost like I want it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] TheNewLegend:
So I just upgraded to the s23 ultra from the s22 ultra and so far I really enjoy the battery life and camera improvements.

One thing I noticed is that the s22 ultra screen is noticeably brighter than the newer s23 ultra in all modes (manual\adaptive\extra brightness)

Does anyone else has both phones and can confirm this too?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ggrant3876:
I came from and still have a Fold 4 and haven't noticed any differences. I also have a Pixel 6Pro and the Samsung at the dimmest is brighter than the Pixel at full brightness.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] JohnTheFarm3r:
It's not.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hand-filer:
I had the S22U; they're about the same. Specs confirm what I'm seeing.

[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] kyanbarth330:
Guys I have a problem.

I had installed the nethunter os with android 12 and the custom kernel.

Now I've flashed stock android 13 firmware to install another OS. However, after flashing stock fimware, the phone didn't boot up anymore. I reflashed twrp but the screen doesnt work. How should I fix this?

Any help would be appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] sergii19:
What are you getting? Or is it straight up not booting up as if it ran out of battery?
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] kyanbarth330:
Im stuck on the "Samsung galaxy secured by knox" screen. It doesn't come further
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] sergii19:
Try going into download and reflashing stock in odin
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] kyanbarth330:
I have done that several times, but nothing works :(
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] sergii19:
Which files are you flashing and in which spot?
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] kyanbarth330:
Im doing the AP in AP slot, CP in CP and CSC (not home_csc) in CSC
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] sergii19:
You need to flash the BL aswell, and it's the home_csc file for the CSC slot, not the CSC one. Let me know if it works
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] kyanbarth330:
Thank u so much, it worked!
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] sergii19:
No worries, happy to help

12/23/08 Update - this case DOES work, but with some easy modification. Read the thread to see the sanding I did on the inside. Took about 3 minutes and case has been working perfectly since.

UPDATE - 12/20/08 -I just got home from the gym and this case does cause some problems. After having it on for a few days the screen stopped working when the cover was on. From my investigating it seems to put to much pressure on the upper left corner of the case/screen, causing the screen to stop responding to touch commands. I have taken the case off and there are no issues at all with the phone, so clearly the case is the problem. I am not sure why it worked perfectly for a few days and then started having issues, but it did. Going to try to sand down the inside a little (pictures posted in this thread)

-----------------

I found this one recommended in one of the many threads on this site about cases for my Fuze. I had a similar thin hard case for all of my Blackberry phones in the past, so I was enthusiastic about this one when I first saw it. Also for $10 it was worth checking out. I received it today and it really fits well on the phone and barely adds any size to the unit. Here are the pictures (below and attached) and a link to where I bought it from at the bottom.

1) I put it on and took it off and it looks like it does not scratch or damage the phone in any way.

2) you can also add a belt clip (see square hole on the back of the case.

3) I am able to reach all buttons, stylus, etc with no issues at all.

4) It is MUCH easier to hold the phone and type now and it is not slippery at all and no more finger print issues.

Link to item on Ebay where I bought it - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300275132561

Delivered in under a week, which was excellent
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] SkitchBeatz:
Looks decent.. what does it feel like? I have an incase slider case for my ipod touch 2g and its possibly the best material for a case that i've felt
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] jknuckey:
Perfect timing on this review, I just purchased one on Ebay last Friday! :) For the cheap price, I figured I was taking a gamble on build quality and fit. Glad to see that it is working well for you. I'm looking forward to getting mine soon so I don't have to worry as much about dropping my Fuze! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
It is plastic I think, but has a soft rubber like feel.

the screen is still exposed, but you are correct. It would be a lot harder to hurt it now with the corners and border protected. For $10 it is a steal so far.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] jknuckey:
I've had my case installed a couple of days now, and I've noticed this behavior the last couple evenings: the screen eventually becomes unresponsive. I do keep my fuze in my pocket, so maybe some additional pressure is being applied to the edges of the screen. Removing the top cover (not trivial due to the tight fit) resolves the problem. I'm thinking that maybe there is not enough room on the edges of the screen.

Are you experiencing similar issues with this case?

thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
No, so far I am not experiencing any of those types of issues and my Fuze seems to be working with no issues. I can tell you that I was told by the AT&T store, and have read other threads on the net, that the phone seems to have issues ANYTIME the screen is pressed against continually or for a long period of time. It might be being in your pocket is causing the issue as you suggested.

Maybe looser pants, haha, only kidding

[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] OlSarge:
I saw in another thread where someone trimmed that corner of the case a bit, and said it worked great. Someone else said they took a dremel to theirs and it worked too. I realize that's not even close to the ideal solution, but thought I'd offer it to you anyway.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
Thanks for the advice. My question is this, WHY would it work for a few days PERFECTLY and then start creating the problems all of a sudden? Strange.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] jknuckey:
Found the other thread, which is for the case being sold at the AT & T store; I guess it was recalled for this same problem. Sounds like a simple emery board solved the problem for some people; I think I may give that a try. Until then, I'm only keeping the back cover on so I at least have some protection...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
I thought about doing that and keeping just the back on also, but it looks weird. I think I am going try to shave it down a little tonight and see what happens.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
Last night using my wife's nail files, which have rounded ends that fit well against the inside of the cover, I sanded down the inside upper left part of the case and put it back on. It seems to be working currently. I will sand more if the same problem happens again. I really like this case so hope it works.

Update - just got back from over an hour at the gym and so far the screen is still working with the shaved down case on it. Now it did work for a few days the first time and then stopped, so we will see if it happens again. But so far, after shaving the inside of the case down a little last night, it seems to be working with the FUZE again.

I have attached some pics
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Captchunk:
Thanks For the Update

Thanks for this post, I am finally getting my Fuze this weekend and bought this case a few days ago just to be ready. I read about your problem with the case and I hope that your initial sanding attempts work out for you. Thanks again for posting all the pictures throughout this thread!:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
no problem. The issue IS DEFINETELY the inside upper left of the case that pushes to hard on the screen. It worked fine all day, and then after being in my pocket started acting unresponsive again. once I pulled up the upper left corner, back to normal.

The ebay sellers have been very proactive with trying to help and offering me a refund or credit. We have emailed back and forth. This is the last correspondence we had.

So with that being said, I am going to sand down the inside cover a little more and just keep sanding to see what it takes to make it work. As previously stated, for only $10 I am ok not getting a refund or returning it because it really is a nice case, looks good, and protects the unit. So I will continue to "tinker" away and try to make it work!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] extensive:
thanks for the review. i had something similar on my htc apache and i liked it. im gonna get this one too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] kgeissler:
I ordered this exact case off ebay before reading this thread. Hopefully we can get them to work. I really like this style case. I had the Boxwave version on my Tilt and it worked really well.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] jknuckey:
Its good to hear that the ebay seller is receptive to refunds. Keep us posted on your emery board efforts... If that doesn't work, its time to start looking at the $30 seidio innocase; hopefully that doesn't have the same problem. I've asked some folks who've ordered it to be on the lookout for this issue.

I just bought the case today... so hopefully everything works out well with the sanding.. can you post pics when you finish sanding? Just want to see where exactly I should sand down
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] cd85233:
I have this case, no problems at all with my Sprint TP. Maybe its luck, but It is an awesome cheap case. I can tell that the rubber finish will rub off sometime, but if it last for more than a few months its fine. I took a sharpy around the white parts to make it look black, but it rubs off. I'll look for some better ways of doing this...anyways, good case.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
I posted the pictures above!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] kgeissler:
Mine got here in the mail today. As soon as I put it on the screen stopped responding. As soon as I took it back off, the screen was back to normal. :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
see my posts above and pictures, and see the first post in this thread. You HAVE TO shave down the inside upper left corner of the case and then it works perfectly. I have had NO problems at all since doing that.

I ordered some cases like these off ebay but haven't had any issues needing to sand them. Screen is still 100% responsive.

that is exactly the same as the one I bought. same white border, etc. same one. some people have had to sand and some have not.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] chadster214:
guys! I just recieved my seidio case and it fits really nice! it's a lot thinner than the case from ebay. I had the same case before and that gave me the same problem on both left and right side of the screen.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
is it possible for you to post pictures?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Maestro Nobones:
I ordered this case too. Will report back once it arrives.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] kgeissler:
After I filed down both corners and along the top of the case, mine works great.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] rkistler:
3) I am able to reach all buttons, stylus, etc with no issues at all.

Do you use one or more FINGERS with your touch screen, or strictly stylus?

There is a related thread on the Seidio Innocase (?Spell?) that includes photos showing that that case has much narrower borders around the screen than a comparative case does: would seem to make sense that a Wider border would end up encroaching on the touch screen, thus making Finger use more difficult.

Although have never been a fan of "Fingering" the touch screen in the past, it seems a particularly convenient way to scroll through pages on the Fuze, so it would be interesting to know whether a bigger wrap-around results in lessened functionality - ??

Still making due with a cheap slipcase for the time being: not a bad way to Transport the Fuze, but less than optimal for actually USING the device!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] sguerra923:
I installed the case and im liking it so far.. took me abot 2 hours of sanding to get it to fit snug... but so far so good looks good and sleek for a 9 buck case
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
I have now seen the Seido case in person and it is really not that much thinner. So far I am still happy with this case that I purchased and started this thread with. And as I posted there are now MANY similar cases available at stores all around me now, as the Fuze accessories start to become more available.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] :
Do these cases leave any scratches on the phone from use... What I mean is that the outside is rubberized, but what about the side that contacts the phone? Potential for damage/scratching there?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
so far no damage or issues that I can see. I just took it off and everything looks fine to me, good as new
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] reluttr:
I got a case exactly like this for ~8$ on amazon, and it had the touchscreen issue as well. After buffing it out with a fingernail buffer it works flawlessly. I also used a high strength sharpie to hide the white places where they didnt paint. I love the case now.

Also if your case is rubbing on the back of your screen then buff the prongs on the bottom half of the shell around the outer edge going from 1-4 on the nail buffer. It seems to fix the sliding issues when opening the case.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
I agree. I have had no issues at all after buffing it. Looks and words perfectly, and only $10. A lot less then other options out there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] dtc7300:
Just another confirmation!

I bought this case too. I attempted to install it without sanding and it too had issues with pressing on the start button. I performed the simple "surgery" of sanding the inside upper left corner and now it works great! Thanks for the post and I really like the case ,10 minutes so far! :)

One con though...the belt clip is extremely cheap...I am thinking about using in my car because I can "lock" the rotation in a Horizontal or Vertical position for different viewing, landscape for GPS and portrait for normal home screen view. I may look for a replacement belt clip just to have a less "cheap" looking thing hanging off the back of my phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] wrxdrunkie:
are you guys sanding only the top left hand corner or the whole case? I was hoping to be able to keep the all black look of the case.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
I ONLY sanded down the inside of the top left corner. I posted pics somewhere in this thread :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] hogsforce:
i bought this off ebay. its for Touch pro and not for Fuze, cos this got a hole for the front cam.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220306410400&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

its great and doesnt need any further modifications. give it a try. loving it now, just that it had taken a knock just now when I slammed my brakes and it flew from my arm rest, hitting the gear knob and finally hit the pedals below. :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] p51d007:
I haven't noticed any problems with the "same style" case offered by at&t, but, I popped the top cover off of mine. I have a "invisible shield" screen protector on my Fuze, and noticed a slight indentation on the top left corner, and I also noticed a slight indentation above the left & right areas above the "HTC" logo at the bottom of the screen. Like I said, I haven't noticed the problems pointed out here, but I thought that if I'm seeing an indentation on the invisible shield,

then there has to be some pressure being applied to the screen. I went ahead and shaved the areas noted with the red in the photo below. Hope this helps.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] rbin:
Same case no problems so far.

I bought the same case off Ebay actually got 2 cases and 2 screen protectors for $10AUD. I had to file the locking tabs on the back cover so that it would slide properly, there is virtually nothing left of the tabs but it still stays on. I also put part of an old screen protector over the button section with no loss of feel. The rubbery feel certainly make the phone easier to hold. I haven't had any issues with the screen to date, over a week now.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Supertrooper:
Thanks for the tutorial on the faceplate. Works great now.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] vikramdhani:
i am still looking for a decent leather case for my phone but i am not been able to find any :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] vikramdhani:
what do you people think about this case ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Hunter707:
Thanks for the information. However, I am still having problems. Every few days it locks up and I take it off and file some more and try again. I just wanted to double check that I was filing the correct place.

As the case sits flat on the table (like in your picture), what part of the case are you actually filing? It is hard to tell from the picture.

1. the flat area beside the hole for the speaker/light sensor.

2. the part projecting up from 1. i.e. does it press on the side of the screen

3. the underside of the tab on the end of 2.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] TVDinner:
Hey Hunter. I have not had ANY problems since my initial sanding months ago.

To answer you question.

When looking at the inside of the case with the case off the phone - In the picture i posted I am sanding the inside upper RIGHT portion of the case.

When looking at the case actually on the phone (opposite side view) - When this is actually on the phone and you are looking at the actual phone with the case on it - it is the inside of the upper left corner of the case (when looking at the phone with it on).

Does that make sense?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Sartuche24:
Well I had ordered the Body Glove case because I liked the little stand it had in the clip which after a month I don't use but when I would use the belt clip if I hit the phone just right it would pop out of the case and onto the floor. This has happened three times so far and I've had the phone for 3 weeks. So I decided to not use the clip anymore but the rubber on the outside makes it very hard to pull in and out of your pocket unless your pants are super loose. hopefully this case is better, I don't need a clip but something that should be easier to pull out of my pocket. Here is a link to the body glove case that I would advise against getting. http://www.wirelessground.com/fuzebgsnap.html
