For some reason my Note 5 acts kinda erratic when I try to unlock the lock screen. I have fingerprint enabled as well as the On Body Detection. There seems to be no rhyme or reason at what point the phone lets my in by just swiping the screen ( in case I am wearing my phone in my holster) or...

Can someone answer this question I have? I moved all my pictures from Phone to ext SD card, Now, I am organizing them into folders. Every time I create a folder (in Gallery) and move pictures to that folder it creates the folder in the phone memory. Then I have to move that folder back to sd...

I travel a lot and I used onboard wifi on most flights I am on. I have my S3 that I mainly use for Whatsapp during the flights and my iPad that I use for web surfing etc. etc. There is no Whatsapp app for iPad :( When I purchase a wifi plan I can only use one device or the other, not both at...

Last few days I have been having lots of app hangups. Gmail constantly hangs and now Maps is doing it as well. This all started after I couldn't send and receive SMS messages and Sprint Tech support did something "on their end" to get it to work again. Anyways, I keep having to do the...

Not sure if this part of the known connectivity issues or a separate one so I am starting this thread. I work in a somewhat metal clad building which blocks most of the 3G signals from the outside. I do have strong wifi signal inside. Since I switched from my OGEvo to the LTEvo I have...

I sent my OG Evo to my son after I upgraded to the Ltevo. Cleared everything and installed Decks Reloaded. Sent him to Best Buy but they couldn't get though the activation process. They said the ##blah blah blah sequence doesn't return the numbers needed but tries to make a call in the...

I have looked all over for this information but can't seem to find a definitive answer. I have the Vodafone Galaxy Y GT-S5369 (germany) Can I use the rooting methods and available ROMs that are out there for the GT-S5360 ? At the minimum I want to remove Simlock from this phone and use...

I am currently visiting Germany and I brought my rooted Evo4G with me to stay in touch via wifi. However, it has it's limitations. So, I found this Galaxy Y phone here at Vodafone, prepaid for 69 Euros. I will only use it for two weeks and it comes "preloaded" with 1000 text messages as well...

I can't get the Installer to download the actual Swype apk. It keeps telling me that my screen size is not supported. Does anyone know if there is a fix available?

A little while back I switched ROM's but eventually went back to my Synergy RC2 via my NANDROID backup. Since then my Gmail doesn't sync automatically anymore. I checked all teh relevant settings but I still get only new emails when I go into each account, menu then refresh. Any idea what...

I have noticed that ever since I first rooted my EVO the MMS messages download very slowly. If I remember correctly my stock phone would notify me that there is a MMS message, when I open the message app the picture would be there ready to be viewed. Now, when I get a MMS, I get a text...

I decided to finally go back to an AOSP ROM after having been on Synergy RC2 since last summer. It's been a while since I completely switched ROM's so I was hoping you guys could help me along so this goes as smooth as possible. I have a ton of apps that I want to make sure get transferred...

I have a number of free apps that I downloaded from Amazon and Getjar. Now, Market keeps trying to update these apps but keeps declining download. Obviously because I have not purchased them through the market. Is there any way to stop thes update attempts ? I have unchecked the automatic...

I am running Synergy RC2 with the following versions. Baseband 2.15.00.09.01 PRL 60683 PRI 1.77_003 Can I just make a nand backup then flash all the files that are listed as "Latest" over in this thread ? ([ Radios ][ 9-5 ] All EVO Radio, WiMAX, PRI, NV & HBoot versions - xda-developers)...

I installed the Synergy RC2 ROM the other day and first reformated my partitions as recommended over at xda. RC2 is running very sluggish for me. I don't know why. Sometimes it takes 5 seconds for a screen to change. Is there anything I can try to optimize ?

After trying all sort of things to get CM7RC4 to work it seems that every fix I try makes things worse. I am so frustrated that I decided to go back to stock. What's the easiest and quickest way to get my EVO back to current level of official Sprint/HTC ROM? I don't care about apps, I...

How do I got about getting rid of ROM Manager and ClockworkMod so I can flash AmonRA ? I placed the AmonRA recovery on my SD card and it looks like it installed it. However, next time I go to recovery it still says ClockworkMod on top. I rebooted a few times but still the same. Any ideas...

I don't know what the heck I am doing wrong but for the life of it I can't get a flashed ROM to work. I have been reading up on so many threads that my head is spinning. I think I am missing something here. Anyways, EVO 4G rooted with Unrevoked, current stock software is 3.30.651.3, stock...

Tried to find out if anyone else had this problem but it doesn't seem like it. I am using Handcent SMS and at one point or another this propblem started: I delete text messages that I don't need anymore. They disappear from both Handcent and stock Messaging app. All of a sudden I have all the...
