47702 | Why the battery drain while plugged in doing nothing? (omap2_mcspi) | I usually leave my phone plugged in to the wall charger at night. This morning, to my surprise, the battery was not charged. According to the System Panel app, System Processes were taking almost 10% of CPU during the entire night. The biggest consumer was omap2_mcspi, taking nearly 15 minutes of CPU time, followed by khelper and cpcap_irq/0 both taking around 5 1/2 minutes, then ueventd and used at around 3 1/2 minutes, followed by battd at 3 minutes and vold at 2 1/2 minutes. It seems pretty ridiculous to me that my battery would be running down while on the charger with the screen off and nothing (that should be) running. Other than system processes, the only other thing taking any appreciable amount (around 1 minute) of CPU was "usb" which shows up outside of system processes. My best guess is maybe the USB plug had some kind of issue, but I don't see any evidence of this (battery status updates don't show any apparent unplugging). |
47701 | Why is there Messenger icon in App drawer? | I have Google Plus app installed on my HTC One X. In the App drawer it shows icons for Google+ and Messenger. Both these belong to same Google+ app. The Messenger icon opens up Google+ app with message displayed `Update to Hangouts. Go to the app` and I have Hangouts installed. The Messenger app icon looks like this:  I tried to uninstall Messenger and it uninstalled the updates of entire Google Plus app. It seems the Messenger icon is created by Google Plus and it only asks user to go to Hangout. Why is this extra icon present? Is there any way to get rid of it? |
47700 | Problem restoring my .ab backup file | I know this might be duplicate but I couldn't find any relevant solution myself. Today I tried to be adventurous and install Ubuntu Touch on my Nexus 7 and it was a failure. As a safety measure I backed up my device's data using the following command on a Windows 7 OS: adb backup all -f ./nexus.ab -shared -apk It took forever and created a 1.6GB file (sounds reasonable to me). But the thing is, when it was done even though the back up screen on my device was gone but the command didn't return in Windows and I had to press ctrl+c. So I went through my adventure and in the process I had to unlock my bootloader and as a result all my data was wiped out (I read that it will happen and I was ok with it since I had already backed up my data). Once I was through with my adventure (and failed), I tried to restore my data using the following command (on the same machine as I created the back up): adb restore ./nexus.ab It takes for ages and after it is done, it prompts nothing (no success or failure). I can tell that it is done since the restore screen on device will be gone and the command will return in Windows. But when I turn on my device it's the same as it came out of the box. So is there any hope left? How can I make sure if my back up file is corrupted or everything is going fine? Do I need to do anything after my back up file is restored? |
47706 | Update to Android 4.2 disappeared after factory reset | My Galaxy SII recently updated to Android 4.2. I then had to reset to factory settings and the update has disappeared.

47704 | Galaxy Nexus 6:30 minutes to copy 128MB over WiFi, is it normal? | I use the Galaxy Nexus GT-I9250 and the WiFi is very slow, I copied a video (128MB) from my computer and it completed in 6:30 minutes, is that normal? It seems slower than over 3G. I used ES File Explorer to copy and I was logged in with the Windows User/pass. |
28905 | File servers for Android? | Do any good file servers exist for Android that do not require root? Ideally, it'd be nice to just be able to have an SMB share, but the only app I was able to find for this (Samba Filesharing) requires root. I'm currently using FTPDroid, but it's pretty slow (I'm getting about 200 KB/s downloads on my n600 wifi). Are there any better options? I'm using a Verizon Galaxy S3. |
28902 | How to export bookmarks from default android browser? | I am using LG P500 phone, running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). I want to export bookmarks from default browser of my android phone. Can any one suggest me how to do that? I have checked settings of default browser but no clue.. |
28903 | How did I get my Nexus 7 homescreen into landscape? | I was playing around on my Nexus 7 today and somehow ended up in a landscape version of the homescreen. I haven't downloaded any apps that mess with it like Ultimate Rotation Control, or rooted it or anything. Somehow though, it was in landscape and I thought it looked pretty cool. As soon as I switched into a different app and came back it was stuck in portrait again though. Does anybody know how that would have happened? I'd like to at least mess around with it in landscape, especially since it seems to be built in. EDIT: It looks like if you open mVideoPlayer and lock the screen, then it will open up to the landscaped homescreen when you unlock. However it rotates back. It doesn't look like the orientation being in landscape messes up anything, so why would it be locked in portrait? EDIT: The above method worked the first three times but doesn't seem to do it at all anymore. |
6914 | Do I need an SD card to add apps to an Advent Amico Android Tablet? | The **Advent Amico Android Tablet PC arrives without an SD card** , and has 487Mb of internal ROM available. Plenty for a few apps surely? There is **no Android marketplace** or alternative marketplace app visible on the tablet to get new apps from. The nearest thing is **PK Manager**. That offers an option to install apks from a micro SD card. It doesn't offer an option to install from internal ROM. I can **upload files to a limited area of the internal ROM** using USB, with USB set for mass storage, using either Windows file explorer or 'Amico Transfer Companion'. So far this doesn't appear to be very useful as besides not being able to install from this limited area, none of the pre-installed apps see the files I put there, even when configured to use internal ROM! Putting apks in the top level of this directory does not install them. I don't seem to be able to use the tablet for app development either, without an HD card. I'd need to use the USB in ADB mode, (and on Win 7) I **need a USB driver which does not appear to be available**. The support site, [http://support.thetechguys.com/amico][1] doesn't have any support and just says 'coming soon'. **So without an SD card is there no way to add new apps?** Is there some setting or method to do this that I'm overlooking? **EDIT:** I've now found that the USB uploaded files not appearing when viewed from the tablet was down to me looking for them with USB still connected. Once the tablet is free floating again, not USB'ed to the PC, the tablet can see the files. |

The tablet would not turn on (froze at logo) so I rebooted it into recovery mode and selected factory reset (I figured it was ok since I had just made a backup) and as expected it asked me to setup the tablet again but now every time I turn it on it factory resets and I need to setup the tablet again.

6919 | How can I unroot OG Droid Gingerbread to latest stock firmware | I want to unroot my Motorola Droid from CyanogenMod 7 RC (Gingerbread 2.3.3) to the latest version of stock Froyo. I've been told there's some complications that can happen because of the new file system used (ext4 instead of yaffs). Are there any instructions on the internet on how to do this? Reading all these unroot instructions are confusing. So many different ways and some don't seem to work. |

50814 | Why does TitaniumBackup not allow me to restore apps after upgrading to 4.3? | After upgrading to 4.3 from a previous version (in my case 4.2), TitaniumBackup might exhibit a behavior where restoring apps does not work and the process just freezes on some devices, in this case a Galaxy Nexus phone. It seems that restoring app settings might work, but when restoring the actual apps this triggers the freeze. Restoring XML data like Wi-Fi hot spots also works. |
7724 | HTC HD2 Can't start certain App from SD with CyanogenMod Gingerbread 2.3.3 | I've installed BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA DESIRE HD V7 & GINGER 2.3.3_V9 (NAND [DAF]Clean) on HTC HD2, everything is fine except I can't run some app (almost all app large than 1Mb) from SD (eg. Angry Birds from Market). I can run the app if it is installed on the phone memory, and I can install or move the app to SD, but when I click the icon, it shows "application…stopped unexpectedly". My friend running another mod with Ginger 2.3.2 don't have this problem. Is there anything I can do to make it work? Or this is the thing beyond my control? |
7725 | How do permissions work in the Android Market? | I've been told that the permissions for an app are there to inform me the types of things the app has permission to do. If this is right, can a developer 'forget' a permission and get away with using something anyway. I'm just curious for the security of my device. I know that Google does not police it's market as strict as Apple so I was wondering if a app could 'forget' to claim a permission but use that feature anyway? This is not a programming question - its about the trustworthiness of permissions |
50811 | For pre-Android 4.3, if a tablet (or any device) has root, will all its user accounts have root access? | This question is for Android 4.2 and below. If a tablet (or any applicable Android device) has root, will all user accounts have root access? Will the SuperUser app also be installed for all users? Also, would it be possible to disable root access for one of those users? _I no longer have a tablet, so I can't confirm this behavior myself._ |
50810 | Can the administrator on a Nexus 7 unlock a secondary user's password? | I've forgotten my password for the family's shared Nexus 7. We assumed that the primary user would be able to access my settings and reset the p/w for me, but it appears not. I would prefer not to have to delete my account, and then recreate it, because I don't want to lose the various apps I've installed, and – frankly – I don't want the hassle! Can anyone help? P.S. Note to self: next time, don't pick a password I am likely to forget. |
19218 | Is there a way to lower GPU load from Ice Cream Sandwich? | I have seen some mentions (including here on Android SE) that Ice Cream Sandwich may not necessarily run optimally (e.g. will be slow/lag) on devices with slower/older GPUs. I assume that's due to GUI elements in the 4.0 being more graphics intensive, same way Windows XP had more graphics intensive GUI as well as Vista/Windows 7 had Aero. However, on Windows, you always had an option to explicitly downgrade the OS's graphics effects, to improve performance (especially on older hardware) - e.g. you could turn off various GUI element transitions - see screenshot below. As far as I know, you can also turn off Aero on Windows Vista/7 (though I don't use them so not certain). **QUESTION: Is it possible to similarly tune Ice Cream Sandwich to downgrade GUI graphics frills to improve performance on older GPUs?** I'm only interested in regular OS/app performance, NOT game graphics performance.  |

13745 | Will encrypting my Droid X2's SD card make me lose the ability to view files on it from my PC? | I recently purchased my first smartphone, a Droid X2. I was listening to the radio and heard security advice about protecting data on smartphones. It specifically said you should install antivirus software, password protect and encrypt your data on the smartphone. Under Settings & Security it has the option for Data Encryption. Should I set up data encryption and will I lose the ability to plug in my phone to my laptop and edit or view data on the SD card? We have data encryption on a laptop at work. If I use this feature and encrypt my memory card I am unable to read the data on my personal computer at home. |
13743 | Why do I have less internal storage space after moving Google+ to my SD card? | I'm having a puzzling problem. I was pleased to see that the latest version of Google+ now supports being moved to the SD card. However, I just installed it on my HTC Desire and, having moved it to the SD card, find I now have 2MB _less_ internal storage space on the phone than I did before! Since the previous version was over 12MB, surely the new version should have freed up a significant chunk of internal storage space? I thought this would help address the problem of constantly running low on space, but it seems to have made it worse. Would be grateful for any suggestions / advice! |
81457 | Can't login with Gmail App/Play Store on tablet; Username/Password OK on desktop web browser | I've spent the last 15 or 30 minutes trying to login to the Gmail app and the Play Store on an ASUS TF-101 tablet. During the same time, I've visited a desktop computer, logged out, re-entered the username and password, and logged back in just fine. Here's a cropped image after attempting to login to Play Store. I'm certain the username and password are correct from testing on the desktop:  The tablet has internet connectivity, and the time is set correctly. I even performed a factory reset and the problem still persists. A few questions: * Any ideas why I've wasted 1/2 hour trying to login using this tablet? * How do I login into Gmail App and Play Store using Gmail credentials on an ASUS TF-101 tablet? * Why am I being forced to use a password mask created for a 1960s teletype terminal in 2014? I certify that no one is standing behind me. * How do I remove the password mask so I can actually see what's being entered?

43282 | Photos Look "Washed Out" when attached | I have Galaxy sIII and now when I attach photos, regardless if I do so by txt, Facebook or email, though they look wonderful on my android phone, once sent they look terrible, washed out, bland and so on. I recall dimly that when I first got the phone, I could select the size or something on those lines of those photos, now i cannot. I have tried settings, I have tried everything I could think of (at least for a not very techno astute girl), and still no luck. Where should I look? How can I fix this. Please help. |

65596 | Is there a way to have 2 devices on a single Google account | My Mom has a Samsung tablet that she uses 90% of the time. I bought her a Chromebook before I knew my brother had gotten her the Samsung. She uses the tablet for quickly looking at Facebook and Gmail because she can walk around with it and the Chromebook at the table for Internet browsing because the Chromebook has a much larger screen. Recently she wanted to be able to check her bank account so I thought it best to put it on the device used least and less likely to be lost, the Chromebook. But when I try and install the app from Google Play only the Samsung is listed. Is there any way to add a device to that Google account. I already have it so the Chromebook logs in automatically to Facebook and Gmail for her, that way she can be up to date on either device because it is the same GMail and Facebook account. Is that the same as logging into the Google Account? If not how do I get there? I do not want to copy paid apps to 2 devices or anything that would be seen as cheating, I just want it easy for her to check e-mail and Facebook from either device without having to teach her to log in and out. Thank you for your help Philip |

65594 | Mod for Jelly Bean Nav bar on Kit Kat Tablet? | I have a Nexus 7 (2013), it is running kit kat, and I am really loving how everything I have set up in this ROM (Beanstalk 4.4.2). There is one thing I really miss and can't seem to find any information on, I would love to have the old Jelly Bean Navigation Bar/Soft Keys on the left combined with the status/notification bar on the bottom right again while in landscape. I really don't understand why this feature was removed in Kit Kat. And have searched all over the place trying to find some type of relevant information on it. But its a hard thing to search for as there is no term that is associated with this UI layout. So far the only relevant info I have found is apparently Paranoid Android offered this feature in the settings of there Nexus 7 2012 ROM for Kit Kat. I'd really like to stick with the ROM I have now if possible. Isn't there a mod or some xposed module or something that can offer this functionality? |

43135 | What is this in my system tray? | Every so often, seemingly random, this notification appears in my notification bar, but not in the tray.  The circles on the left in the notification bar. I have no clue what it's related to. There's no notification if I slide the tray down. It doesn't stay long, about the time I check for it in the notification tray, it's gone. I develop for my phone. Would anything on the development side of things trigger this weird notification? It's a Samsung Galaxy S3 running CyanogenMod nightlies, specifically 10.1-20130405-NIGHTLY-d2spr which is Android 4.2.2. EDIT: I've noticed that this appears very consistently when I have Moon+ Reader open. It does not appear to be a notification caused by that app, but instead appears to be that the app is somehow "muting" notifications that happen while it is open. Is there something in the API that allows for the silencing of notifications originating from other apps? |

I tried it with Angry Birds and after turning off 3G, I no longer saw any ads, but is this possible? |

17111 | Why does Samsung Kies say that my device does not support software upgrading via kies? | I bought a Galaxy Ace. It initially came with: 1. Gingerbread 2.3.3 2. Build is GINGERBREAD.XWPKY, for regions France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, UK 3. Unrooted With that, let me add that I am from the Philippines. And I know that there's a 2.3.4 Asian ROM update (DXKPD) as per here: http://www.pinoytechblog.com/archives/have-you-updated-your-samsung-galaxy- phones-to-gingerbread-yet But Kies doesn't show any update. So I thought that Samsung has not released an update for that European region, and concluded that I might need to change it to my region. (Although my local carrier was able to send me GPRS settings while under this region). So that's what I did. I used Odin on 2 attempts I did so far. I flashed it FIRST with a different region ROM (Germany, I think). SECOND time, I got it right. I now have 2.3.4 GINGERBREAD.DXKPD via Odin and using an OFFICIAL 2.3.4 Asian ROM from this page (MediaFire link): http://rumah-android.com/new-stock- rom-android-2-3-4-s5830dxkpd-for-asia.html Here's what troubles me. 1. Regardless if there's an update or not, Samsung Kies tells me that I couldn't update my firmware even if it's an official ROM. 2. I can't get GPRS settings now that the region's changed. Finally, the questions: 1. Is it possible that my phone is locked to that European region? Is there such a thing? 2. Or did I use an unofficial ROM? 3. What should I do next from here? I'm sorry this is too long. I'm confused and I just need clarifications. I hope I made myself clear. Thanks in advance. |

When I look at the currently running tasks, it seems everything is always running, which is unnecessary. I know this is a hot topic and most people say, just let it go, it isn't wasting CPU or battery (which is non-sense to a point, if the service is running and constantly updating via wifi or 3G, it is definitely using power). My bigger problem is that they do, absolutely, use memory, and lots of it, and when I want to use something that is CPU or memory intensive, the program lags because there isn't enough memory available. If I kill everything, the programs runs fine for a few minutes until magically, everything is running again without any intervention. For instance, why does Maps, Amazon MP3 (which I have never used), YouTube, NHL GameCenter, etc need to run all the time? Is there a way to stop them so they only run when I want to use them? |

60415 | Video output on audio port | I've seen phone that are able to output video from standard Android audio port or jack. Given this, I am thinking of what are the possibilities of doing an android app that can output video from the standard Android audio port? I am not sure but maybe those existing Android phones have video out hardware interfaced to the microphone part of the audio port (just assuming), and I am also assuming that the Android phone microphone input is not capable of outputting signals in any way we tweak it. So I am thinking of outputting video signal through either the L or R audio port. If this is the only feasible solution, what are the things that should be considered? |
60418 | Galaxy Note 3 requiring pin for lock-screen due to e-mail account | After syncing my work email with my new Samsung phone I received an on screen notice that in order to have the account synced with my phone I was required to have a password on my lock-screen. This is very aggravating to me to constantly have to enter a pin over and over. Is there anyway to have both the email account but no required pin? I have gone to settings>Lock Screen> Screen Lock but can not seem to find what I am looking for.. Any advice would be appreciated. |

965 | Programmable MP3 player with audio recording capability | I'm looking for a device that: 1. Is programmable like the iTouch, Android, devices. 2. I'd rather not go Apple, but the iTouch is a nice device. 3. I want a line-in jack or at least the ability to connect a real mic What I 'really' want is this: 1. I want to set it to record, put it on the table and whenever something interesting is said, be able to hit a marker button. 2. I want to be able to have a menu of movie quotes, "it goes to 11", "what is your name!?", "How you gonna lose your job,... on your day off?!", "Groovy baby!".... as well as the ability to record my own quotes. Then I can just hit a button and boom, it plays the quote. That must exist, but if not, I can program it myself. Web browser/wi-fi would be a bonus. The Archos devices look nice, but it's not clear that they've got line-in's. |
960 | On the android Incredible, is there any way to make a shortcut to the "All Photos" view? | The HTC photo-album takes up an entire screen; is there a way to make a shortcut, or is there a smaller widget or app, that would open up the all- photos view? The easiest method I've found is to go in via a camera, view the albums, and select "All photos" Surely there must be a better way? I'm on the HTC Incredible running Froyo (2.2) |

62814 | Installed google apps on generic tablet, services are there but no entries in the menu | (This post is a follow up of my previous one ) I managed to root and install gapps in my generic tablet, but now there is a small pending issue. When I go to Manage Apps->All, I can see some newly installed services like Google Play Services, but nothing in the menu. I have also cleared the cache from the Recovery, with no luck. My first thought was to just get Google Play's apk from my mobile and install it to the table, but I am hesitating a little. I only care, about Play Store, the others will be retrieved from there on demand. Has anyone encountered that before? |

20462 | Mute the external microphone when a headphone is plugged in? | I'm running Gingerbread on my Samsung Galaxy S II. I dock it on my dash in my car and plug a 3.5mm cord from the phone to my stereo aux input. I often listen to music from my phone through my car stereo, but when a call comes in and I answer it, there is terrible feedback on the other end because the caller hears both my speakers and the audio from the phone. Is there anything I can do about this other than to switch to a traditional headset? |

46566 | Why does Odin say FAIL and how do I fix it? | I looked at this guide and have tried the steps, but when it comes to step 13 it always fails: > Now, hit the START button to begin the flashing process.

46567 | How to setup ADB for TCP on Galaxy S3 with broken USB port | I have a SGH-I747 phone that has a problem with the USB port (it will charge, but is never recognized so no ADB. Phone was actually sent to Samsung and they stated 'Beyond repair - gross electromechanical damage'). I would like to use the phone for development and was hoping to setup ADB to work over TCP. Seems like the only way to set this up is to either have a rooted phone or be able to set the phone into tcpip directly over USB. I was hoping to find an apk that would root this model but there doesn't appear to be one. Is there any other way to get adbd into TCP listening mode? |
46568 | Do all HTC One X's use the same screen? | I'm going to replace the screen on my HTC One X, but I'm nervous of buying the wrong LCD assembly (I did that with a version of the iPhone 4 before).

My serial starts with HT23, and not the GS23 that so many eBay advertisers have in their description. |
42669 | "CP Crash: Don't Power OFF & Contact us" every 2-3 days | Yesterday I unexpectedly got an error message on my 1 week old LG Optimus L9 saying "CP Crash: Don't Power OFF & Contact us" with a timestamp and lost contact with my SIM card. Here is a screenshot of the error:  The time displayed in the message was 2 hours ago, the phone was in sleep mode, and I saw the message when I unlocked it. After restarting the phone, everything went back to normal, and the message has reappeared 7 times since then, even after 2 factory settings resets, LGMobile Support Tool emergency recovery and SIM replacement. What could cause such error and how can I prevent it in the future? Android version is 4.1.2 (the latest official update). |
59887 | Galaxy tab 10.1 charging with USB 3.0 | When referring to this post, it seems like the Samsung Galaxy Tab should be able to charge while connected to a USB 3.0 port while running. I've noticed that when I have my Tablet running and plugged into a power strip, the device does gain battery rather than losing it. However when I try to charge with my USB 3.0 in my laptop, the device loses battery life. It still charges, but the running device uses more battery than it gains from USB 3.0. Am I doing something wrong here? I have the Samsung USB drivers installed and I am using the original Samsung cable. Perhaps there is some problems with my battery? Or am I still supposed to lose battery life while plugged into a USB 3.0? |

I figured the only way would be to factory-reset the device from the Recovery mode but when I enter the recovery mode (by holding Vol Down + Power Button) it reboots the device after a few seconds in recovery screen. Now I'm stuck and have no idea what else to do. The tablet model is S7-931u. |
45037 | How much disk space does Android OS 4.1.1 take? | I recently received a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 with Android 4.1.1 on it. This is the 8GB model. I am curious to know, how much disk space does the Android OS take up? I did not think about 3.5GB was needed for the OS. Is this true? I ask only because my disk space available says I have 4.49GB left. |
45034 | How to launch LMT pie controls with home button | I have an acer iconia tab a100 running a custom ROM based on CM10.1. The tab has one hardware button, the home button. I'd prefer to use LMT pie controls rather than the navigation bar to save screen space, but I don't like having to launch pie controls with gestures. My question is: is there some way for me to remap the home button on the tab to launch pie controls instead of the default action, going to the home screen? |
45038 | Why Have Some of My Widgets Disappeared After Switching Launchers? | I recently changed my launcher from the default TouchWiz (I have an AT&T SGS3, with the official 4.1.1 installed) to Nova Launcher. I enjoy Nova, but I've noticed something strange: the Calendar and Weather widgets that were available under TouchWiz aren't there anymore. They're still there in TouchWiz (Home Switcher makes it easy to switch back and forth). What's going on? |

I don't like it. I want a fast uploading because I like to use Twitter uploading in not-so-important -situation such as draft-uploading and so on -- situations that usually do not last that long.

29269 | How do I add a phone number to contacts from the text message app? | I have a text message sent from a phone number that is not yet linked in any other method. Is there a way to use this message's number to create a new contact or modify an existing one directly from the text messaging application? If it is relevant, I use Gmail for my contacts and have imported from Facebook. I have Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). **What I've tried** This question is vaguely similar, but not quite what I'm looking for. I know I can copy/paste the number if I open the "modify recipients" dialog, click on the number, and click/hold to open the cut/copy/paste tool. I can also simply write down the number on paper. I'm looking for an alternative. There are no menu options if I select the message at the top-level of the Text app. The menu options while in the text message thread don't seem relevant: * Insert smiley * Delete * Set priority * Add subject * Modify recipients The menu options if I click and hold on an individual message don't seem relevant: * Delete message * Forward message * Copy message text * Protect message * View message details * Add to task |

78305 | How do you answer a call with a physical keyboard? | My Nexus 5 (Android 4.4.4) touchscreen has stopped working, and the warranty replacement is still a few days away. Since I don't have any other phone to put my SIM in, I still have to use this phone even though the touchscreen doesn't work. I discovered I can plug in a physical USB keyboard with an OTG adapter, and this suffices to navigate around the phone for the most part. However I can't work out how to answer an incoming call using the keyboard! Does anyone know what, if any, key combination you can press on an external (USB/Bluetooth) keyboard that will answer an incoming call? (I worked out that Ctrl+Esc closes the lockscreen if there is no PIN set, but this does nothing when an incoming call is waiting to be answered.) |

78308 | How to detect if bootloader is unlocked when fastboot doesn't work? | I have this tablet that runs on RK3168 (Rockchip) SoC. The problem is that fastboot doesn't recognize the device, but after so much toil, I managed to find Finless' flashing tool and flashed CM Recovery image unto the device. The flashing worked because when I rebooted to recovery mode, it showed CM recovery screen instead of the stock recovery screen. The flashing tool is a windows GUI. It doesn't have an unlock bootloader function. But since I was able to flash the recovery image successfully, my question is, does this mean that my device bootloader is already unlocked? * * * **Edit: (more details)** Using Finless' flashing tool, I backed up all the NAND partitions and named them accordingly, e.g. backup.img, kernel.img, etc. Then I reflashed them all back into the device but reflashed a different recovery.img. I reflashed a generic CM that I got from this site instead: http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/ I did all this with the assumption that the flashing tool actually works. After all, I used it to make the backup as it was the only tool that detected the device in fastboot mode because fastboot just doesn't detect it. (It could be that the bootloader interface driver doesn't work properly for fastboot on Win x64, but I don't have the luxury of setting up a 32-bit OS.) When I rebooted the device, everything was fine. Rebooted into recovery mode and CM recovery screen showed up. I'm still new to all this android flashing stuff, I don't really know what an unlocked bootloader means, and I just read from other guides that in order to flash a custom recovery, I need an unlocked bootloader first. So I'm presuming that if I was able to flash images, that my bootloader is already unlocked? But I'm not sure, so that's why I'm asking (albeit a very naive question...) |
63149 | Google Apps do not install on Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830M running CyanogenMod 7.2 | I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830M from Telcel, Mexico. I recently installed a build of ClockworkMod 5.0.2.6 from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szivlIBdjvo , and used it to install CyanogenMod 7.2.0 from thread http://forum.xda- developers.com/show....php?t=2080065 . Clockwork initially hung, so I did a hard reboot to recovery, and I installed it again. This time it installed fine. Then I installed Google Apps, but after rebooting I was taken to the normal system home, and Google Play is missing, as if the apps didn't actually install. I already tried twice to install them but couldn't. How can I get them to install? |
58282 | Contact images missing from SMS list in hangouts | I have a problem with my Nexus 5 and the new Hangouts app that supports SMS integration. Only some of my contacts have their contact image next to their name in the main listing. When I click on them to view the SMS conversation their image is displayed correctly, it's just on the main listing that it doesn't appear. People I've 'hung out' with show up fine, it's just the SMS contacts that don't. Things I've tried: 1. Editing the contact and applying a completely new image 2. Changing the contact to use their Google+ image 3. Changing the contact to use the image I have applied in GMail on the web. Does anyone know how I can get the missing contact images to show up? |
8913 | Do I need Android SDK to connect my phone in USB debug mode? | I'm following the steps provided here to root my Samsung Captivate (Galaxy-S). I install the USB drivers in the link provided. Whenever I connect my phone, I get the error `There was a problem installing this hardware... SAMSUNG Android Composite ADB Interface`. I do have USB Debug mode checked on my phone. The googling I have done on this issue mention downloading the Android SDK, but I have heard no mention of needing this on the XDA developers forum or in any other conversation about rooting. So, I wanted to ensure that downloading the Android SDK was necessary, or would even fix my problem before I bother installing it and its dependencies (Java JDK). I'm running Windows XP. Note: Although I'm running a 64-bit machine, I Installed the x86 Samsung Drivers since Windows XP is a 32-bit OS. I hope that's right.  |
58286 | Why are all these apps wanting access to Android Services from my Google account? | On HTC one 4.3/5.5 I get a list of about 20 apps asking for permission to Android services. These apps want access to your google account from now on They are requesting permission to: Android Services If I select no thanks, it comes back a few hours later. The other option is allow access Some of the apps are - System UI - Android System - Key Chain - HTC Function Test v4.03.04g - Keep Alive - Settings And so on. While im not against allowing acess, Id prefer not to, but dont want to say no twice a day. Why do all these apps want or need access to my google account? Can I make it stop without granting access? What happens if I grant access? |
58285 | Recover photos From vaulty app after a hard reset | First I'm a Samsung Galaxy S4 user. I loaded photos to vaulty without problem. However, I changed my screen lock password and must have typed something incorrectly twice, without noticing and could not access the phone anymore. I had to factory reset the device erasing everything, but before doing that I took my SD storage card out to make sure it wasn't erased. My thought was that the pictures that were in Vaulty would be on the SD card still, but I couldn't access the card anyway on the device. After resetting the device, installing the vaulty app again, and insert the SD card again... I find that I can't see the pictures that were initially saved to the SD card. I attempted to use RECUVA as recommended, but my PC says the SD card isn't formatted for it to access it. Not formatting it bc that would erase it completely. So I'm stuck at this point. Is there a way to recover photos after a factory Reset or an update if the data was on a SD card initially, seems to be the question I have, as well as many others do I see? |
54904 | Rotate reminder in camera | **Is there any way to have a Samsung Galaxy S3 remind the user to rotate the device when shooting video or photographs?** The user in question keeps promising to start rotating the device when photographing but always forgets. I do understand that the problem might be the wetware and not the hardware, but I argue that the form factor and UI of the device actually encourages this behaviour. |
8918 | Sync Exchange 2010 notes, tasks and reminders | My HTC Incredible S phone runs Android 2.2, and has the ability to sync e-mail, calendar and contacts with our Exchange 2010 Server at work. Tasks, notes and e-mail reminders, however, aren't synced out-of-the-box. I've been looking, but can't seem to find any lightweight apps on the Google Play Store that can fill this gap. Does anyone know of such a product? If a lightweight one does not exist, what would you recommend I do to sync these items? I'd prefer using the built-in e-mail, calendar and contact apps, and would rather avoid bloatware such as TouchDown. _I foundthis question which somewhat addresses this, but doesn't mention e-mail reminders and notes._ |
8919 | Exchange 2010 calendar synchronization problem | I've had my HTC Incredible S for a couple of weeks now, and have only just succeeded in synchronizing my Exchange 2010 calendar with it. E-mail and contacts have been working like a charm from the beginning. I kept getting this useless error message: > Synchronization is experiencing problems I tried many things, including exporting my entire calendar to file, deleting all items in my calendar, and re-importing items, but to no avail. My collegues' calendars synced just fine to my phone. For some reason my calendar just wouldn't sync. After a lot of messing around I found that if I made a change to **every single item** in my calendar, e.g. changing the subject of the item, and restoring it afterwards, I was able to sync the entire calendar. Finally! A VBA macro helped me perform this absurd task in Outlook 2010: Sub ChangeAllItems() Dim myolApp As Outlook.Application Dim calendar As MAPIFolder Dim aItem As Object Set myolApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set calendar = myolApp.ActiveExplorer.CurrentFolder Dim strTemp As String For Each aItem In calendar.Items strTemp = aItem.Subject 'Make a change to the item (subject) aItem.Subject = strTemp & " " aItem.Save 'Restore subject line aItem.Subject = strTemp aItem.Save Next aItem End Sub This question serves two purposes; first, to help others who are experiencing the same issue; second, to help me and others understand the reasons for this strange behaviour. * Has anyone had the same problem, but solved it differently? * Does anyone know of a reasonable explanation to this behaviour?
