[Q] Nexus 5 D820 works only on 2G topic

Hi,
I bought a new device, Nexus 5 D820.
And I have a problem when I insert SIM regardless of which provider I have no reception (no service),
Tried to set the correct APN settings with the provider but it didn't help.

what could be the problem?

Is it possible to change the dpi for one app only? topic

I am using the vitalsource bookshelf app for my textbooks. The app is not optimized for nexus 7 and since the text is kind of small I need to keep zooming into it which is kind of annoying when you are learning. I was wondering if it is possible to make the dpi larger only for this app. The text on all my other apps are perfect.

P.S. My nexus 7 2012 is rooted.

[Q] (URGENT) LG G2 VS980 soft brick (No ROM or Recovery, only download mode) topic

I have VS980, with some version of PA 4. I hadnt updated it in a while so i downloaded the latest zip and tried to flash it with twrp. (i dont remember the exact version, but not 2.7) For some reason i suppose twrp didnt like to play nice with 4.4.3 and failed to something about updating binaries. I'm not sure what it was, doesnt really matter now though. That sorta messed up the rom enough so that it would never boot. it would get to the boot animation, but no further without intervention. So of course i was like "i gotta update my recovery!!" but alas i tried to flash it using adb and now twrp wont work, it only comes to a black screen. So i have been able to find no way to get into fastboot in lg g2 and i cant adb while in recovery and i have no ROM to work with. All i have is download mode which has (according to me) rendered my phone useless. I have been scouring the internet for hours trying to fix this with Download mode, perhaps with odin, but it's only for samsung devices i think. I have exhausted my mind and options and I am completely dumbfounded. If someone could shed some light on this it would be awesome. Before i take it to verizon to play stupid haha. All help is appreciated. I am a semi noob when it comes to this stuff, or i suppose really nooby.

I have been personally going through a lot lately and i cant handle this right now and i feel really bad but i really need help. all help is appreciated.

[Q] Phone doesn't do anything, only backlight is on topic

Hi. My friend has an SP, it's stock and unrooted, and a few weeks ago the phone started to hang on black screen with backlight on. Of course he tried to reset the phone with the button under the battery, with no success. He returned it to the store, they only reflashed the stock rom, it worked for a day now it's the same. Has anybody find any solution to this? I tried to search for exact similar problems, but I couldn't find any with proper answers. I think he is on 4.3. Thanks for any help!

Does not boot (Only on Download mode) topic

Hellow guys

Here's my background, I rooted my Tab by using z4root which works fine. I flash zImage using Odin with 20% battery (I think this cause the problem D:

After it says "PASS" I immediately pull it from the pc and boot em up. In the first "Galaxy Tab" logo it has Funky rainbow lines,and on the second logo which is "Samsung'' it stops there and vibrates then it repeats all over again. When I try to boot it on recovery mode rainbow lines appear then go back to First logo screen. Download mode works fine but Odin wont recognize it :o .

After one week of searching on the internet, I cant find my situation. So, I was thinking to post it here on forums. Thanks in advance! :)

[Q] Flashing custom kernel only on my Nexus 7 (2013) topic

Hi,
my only goal is to use my Nexus 7 (2013 version, running kitkat) to view digital television (dvb-t).
Therefore, have I unlocked it (with complete erase grrr), then rooted it.
And finally, read about one hundred message threads on xda to know how to compile dvb modules for my kernel (3.4.0-gac9222c).

My problem, after all this work, is that it seems that Google did not compile its kernel with modules support.
After doing
# lsmod, I got the following error:
/proc/modules: No such file or directory.

This means apparently that there is no modules support for this kernel.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1...in-android-4-3

My 2 questions is the following:
(1) is it possible to flash a kernel image on my nexus 7 to get module support
(2) is it possible to do that without reflashing my ROM (my stock ROM is enough for my needs)

Cheers,
Louis

[Q] only 2g Data after 4.4.2 official update via KIES topic

Hello,

I have an issue with my gt-i9505.
It was running fine, I received the 4.4.2 OTA update, but it failed several times.
So hooked it up to the PC and used KIES 3 ( latest version ) to update to the latest build.

Suddenly I only had 2G data connection left, I tried switching to WCDMA only and it showed me this circle with a diagonal line in it.

After that I tried rebooting several times, but to no avail.
After this I replaced the sim card, same issue ( went to the provider store to get a replacement ).
So still with this issue, I booted up the recovery and did a hard reset.

Still the same issue.

It is very annoying as I am relying on my mobile data a lot.

Anybody any clue?

[mod] increase headphone volume (only) to max !!! topic

-Tried in N900 only,but may work in other versions(backup first)
-Please take care of your hearing when lisening in high volumes, i'm not responsible for what happen to them, you have been warned !!!
-Increase headphone (only) max volume from 85 to 127 !!!
-Needs a rooted device
-Based on work from this forum and my personal experimentation with Alsamixer app and Es File Explorer
-Steps:
1-enable root access by Es File Explorer app
2-mount system as read write by Es File Explorer App
3-go to path system/etc and backup file ysound.xml (copy to other location) or rename it
4-past the included file in the same previous path
5-long press on the file then properties and change permissions to root root rw-r-r
6-restart phone
7-done !!!
-In case of any problems or if you want to return to previous setting simply restore your backup file and restart
-you could notice the increase in volume by Alsamixer app (headphone volume) before 85 after 127, not only by hearing
-included file:

AOSP and TouchWiz - IMO only topic

I've been an AOSB user for a long time now, it's a great kitkat rom and does almost everything I've wanted it to do with no issues at all. I just recently wanted to use my phone to watch movies on my HDTV but apparently AOSP roms won't let me do that, at least not with the hdmi cable I already own. Since I didn't want to spend any money on new equipment that may or may not work I decided to try out touchwiz again, I haven't used it since 4.1.2. Some things I'd completely forgotten about, so I thought I'd put my opinions here while they are still fresh in my mind. This might help somebody who is afraid of trying something new, in either direction.

AOSP/CM - 1. Fast. Just opening and switching apps it is noticeably faster than TW.
2. light weight - the roms are generally only maybe 200 mb's and backups generally are quicker.
3. themes - for roms with theme engine you have hundreds of themes at your finger tips, and it only takes a few seconds to switch themes. If you get bored easily looking at the same thing this is a major plus.
4. Depending on the rom you have options, tons and tons of options.
5. again, depending on the rom, you have HALO, multiwindow, active notifications, omniswitch, etc.

BUT...negatives include no wifi calling, signals seem a little worse, and some things (like HDMI out to tv) don't work as well or as easily as TW.

TW - 1. It works. Well. I haven't found any issues in daily use with it.
2. Many of the modifications and options found in AOSP can be added to TW using xposed, plus some TW roms have these options built in.
3. Battery life seems better, with or without custom kernels. At least in standby. With cm I'd lose about 5-6% in 8 or 9 hours overnight, with TW and the same apps and options I lose maybe 3%.

BUT...TW is slower. Not much and not in everything but when it does lag its easy to get annoyed after having used AOSP for months. Maybe the annoyance will go away once I get used to it?
Also, this is just personal opinion but I feel like the settings in TW is just a mess. The "google" way of arranging settings needs a little work but overall I think it's easier to use than samsungs version.

I know this isnt' anything new for most of you but hopefully for somebody who is on the fence and not brave enough to switch from one to the other this will help.

Also, if any aosp/cm users have any help for how I can hook the phone to the tv I'd love to hear it.

[Q] N7 APX mode only - full recovery? topic

Hi all,



Has anyone followed Rayman's excellent article the-inner-workings-of-secure-boot-key-and-nvflash and fully recovered a N7 from APX only mode?

I have this situation which I think resulted from the battery dying during the 4.4.2 update - Doh I know, but thought I had enough juice to complete the update.

Rayman says the required files will be made available but I cannot find them anywhere
