[Fix] No system/keyboard feedback - Galaxy S II General

Some users have been having trouble with not having any feedback on their GSII. Including myself
(Eg. No vibration/sound while typing, clicking on icons, or vibration using the back button etc.)
Short version:
Do a factory reset and skip the setup.
Long version:
1. To fix this, you need to do a factory reset. To do this you go to settings -> Privacy -> Factory reset. You can of course check any of the boxes if you want.
2. Reset the phone. As soon as you come to the setup screen just hit the home button.
In other words, you want to skip the setup.
3. You're done! If you want to add an account or change language etc.Just goto settings and change it there

Get the Hero keyboard without rooting!

Not sure if this has already been covered in the forum, but if not, here's how you do it:
Full instructions are in German here: http://www.mobiflip.de/2009/08/orig...e-root-auf-dem-magic-installieren-und-nutzen/
Quick and dirty translation (links for apps/files in the original link above):
1. Install eoeAppInstaller or ATRO file manager (I already had the latter so that's what I used)
2. Copy HTC_IME.apk to your sd card
3. go to menu, settings, applications, and check the box to allow unknown sources
4. Launch eoeAppInstaller or ATRO file manager, go to HTC_IME.apk, click it and select install
5. When it's done, exit and restart the phone
6. Go to menu, settings, locale and text, you'll see a new option called touch input. Select the check mark and go into touch input options to specify preferences. Don't mess with the calibration option as this doesn't work on the magic (I tried, it just force closes)
7. To activate the keyboard, go anywhere where you need it, e.g. start an sms, then click and hold the text box, select input method, select touch input (you can change back anytime in the same way) and that's it!
Enjoy.

Phone programming menu resets to stock

I have the Evo Shift running the 2.76.651.5 update (Android 2.3.3, Sense 2.1).
Short version: When I make changes through my phone's programming menu (##3282#) they don't stick. Instead, they reset to default almost immediately.
Long version:
I wanted to make the adjustments described in these threads:
Slot Cycle Index: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703104
and
Clearing the proxy settings: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10531775&postcount=9
I called Sprint, got my MSL, opened the programming menu in "Edit" mode, and made the changes. In both cases, the settings revert to default almost immediately.
What gives? Is there anything I can do to make these settings stick or do I have to wait for perm-root?
you try doing it while temp rooted?
Make sure before you exit the programing menu, you hit menu-Commit Modifications. Or else the changes might not stick.

That fixed it. Thanks! I'm used to the Back button committing changes in the regular menu.
Glad you got it

HTC HD2 change buttons

I have htc hd2, but my home and back buttons does not work.
Is there any program that can change menu button to home button?
p.s anyone knows why doesnt work? i have change the keybord... but this buttuns still dont work? anyone?
Use button savior from the market...it won't change button mapping, however it gives you onscreen buttons..
There's an app in the market that changes hardware keys but I can't remember the name of it for the life of me... Go try soft keys (in the market) though it'll give you home, menu and other buttons on your screen

The rom I use the key problem of "home" was linked to data2ext.
Some of us have resolved with this procedure
1. Full wipe
2. Installing ROM (data2ext set no dates)
3. Starting the Rom
4. Turn off and return on cmw
5. wipe Dalvik and cache
6. ReInstallation Rom and set on data2ext
7. Reboot and all should work.
Sorry for my bad english
Another issue

Your phone will rebuild the dalvik and cache files during boot after you wipe them. It won't affect any apps or settings.

Need help with my GPS?

Hello guys.
So I'm having an issue that I can't seem to solve ..
I've an SM-N9005 running CyanogenMod M12. Lately I've been having issues with my GPS. I can't get a fix whatsoever. When I turn the A-GPS/High accuracy mode, I get a close location to where I'm, but not the exact location and still no navigation app would work.
When I'm in a car, it'd show my location outside the road. and If I'm sitting in someplace, it'd show my location somewhere else ( within my area bit something like 200 meters away)
If AGPS is off, it'd take 20 minutes and Still no fix.
Here are the things I've tried to solve it.
- wiped and factory reset ( countless times )
- installed like 6 other different ROMs ( same issue )
- tried other CM versions and wiped too
- cleaned AGPS data using GPS status app.
Nothing seemed to work whatsoever. The problem has been going for a while, but GPS used to work perfectly fine before for like 8 months .. And it's out of warrantee period so I can't exchange it. Any solutions?
Did you try it on stock firmware?
It may be an issue of custom roms

Have you tried :
On you dialer type in this USSD *#0011#
Press menu key > press back
Press menu key > press key input > Q

Wait for a few seconds and the screen options will change
Press om UMTS
Press on Common
Press on NV Rebuild
Press on NV Rebuild
Press on System, Protocol, GPS, IMS
Wait for 30 seconds and then shutdown your phone
Power On phone
GPS should work fine now
Recommend to use GPS STATUS app to reset and download AGPS Data

It may need to be a stock rom that you try it on

Try this method:
Open Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes' > 0011 > 'Launch 0'.
Note: Root is required.

No such code is found. I only have 16 codes. Could it be because I'm running CyanogenMod?

Yes, you are right. It is due to CM had removed all secret codes.
On the stock firmware, there are more than 170 secret codes in our Note 3.
I'm stock unrooted and I have the same GPS issue. Happened right after I updated to 4.4.4 and my gps icon changed to the location icon.

[YT3-X90L] Lock state - locked - Recovery image needed

Hello XDA-Community,
I've got a Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3-X90L from a customer.
He was telling me, that he wanted to unlock his device with the pattern, mismatched for several times and now its locked and requires the owners google account. Or something like that. He never had the owners google account. He told me that his seller has activated his device for him. And he has no clue who it was.
Now here is my part.
I've researched and obviously it's a FRP. The owners google account information are stored in the FRP-Partition. And this partition won't get deleted with a simple factory resett.
What i've tried so far:
1.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCzrnnh2K1w I was able to follow this tutorial to minute 9:08. But the option "Email and password" is not there anymore. I guess they patched it with 6.0.1.
2.) I tried to flash a stock rom or twrp with LenovoDownloader(QcomDLoader). The stock rom file is: Lenovo_Yoga_Tablet_3_YT3-X90L_ENG_S200028_1609230146. even its a german device this file was the only one i could find. But the LenovoDownloader won't recognize my device. The windows stays white, no entries. I guess i installed the correct driver for this device and Windows recognizes them as removable device if i plug it in via usb.
3.) I've tried to use adb and fastboot boot oem unlock. But this commands aren't working in locked state.
4.) With a trick i could open the Settings and was full of hope to active the developer options to set usb debbuging to active. But this developer options aren't available either with this "user".
5.) There is an apk for showing the "Email and password" interface. I could install it, but it force closes right after starting it.
6.) I've tried several tools to bypass this FRP: WinDroid Toolkit, D-G Unlocker, Realterm, but NOTHING.
What could i do further? I'm out of ideas right now.
I've read about a factory_update.img but i cant find anything, except the stock rom file, for this device.
Or downgrading the device, so i could use the "Email and password" but. But i can't even flash the stock rom.
Specs for the device:
Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3-X90L
Lenovo/YT3_l0_row_lte
6.0.1/MMB29M/LenovoYT3-X90L_S200307_170614
i appreciate any help i can get
greets

I've wrote it down. Hope this helps.
Situation:
"Confirm account: The device has been reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously synced on this device. "
Explanation:
The device has been blocked by repeated input of the wrong password, pattern, etc. and can only be unlocked with the Google account of the owner.
A factory reset or hard reset does not help here, as the account information is saved in its own FRP partition and will not be deleted when the factory state is restored.
Solution:
1. Connect device to a Wi-Fi and Internet access.
2. Before confirming "Next", select another hotspot here
3. Go to "Advanced Settings" and change the proxy settings of any hotspot to Manual.
4. In the text input field of the proxy settings you enter now any word: e.g. Test
5. Now mark this word and select "Assist" in the context menu.
6. Selecting this "Assist" option opens the Google search application.
7. You can now not only browse the Internet through this search, but also search for and open installed programs.
8. We are looking for Chrome, open the internet browser, go to www.google.com and search for DPC test.
Link: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sampl...-release/test-dpc-4-0-6-android-apk-download/
9. After downloading this application, go back to the Google search application.
10. Here we enter "Download" to search for the download application.
11. In Downloads we can now find and install the downloaded app.
12. To allow the installation of this .apk, you must allow the installation of "unknown sources" in the settings.
13. Either you go here on the installation itself on "Settings", or you search for "Settings" on the Google search app.
14. After completing the installation of the DPC-Test program, start it with "Open".
15. The app itself is will register as a device owner and now allows us to set up a new Google Account as owner.
16. If this is set up, it will also be included in the FRP partition.
17. In the event of a new factory reset, the device is reset, the DPC-Test program is removed and the device can be freshly set up in the factory settings.
after the takeover of the owner, the reason for blocking the device was not present anymore and the old owner was overwritten. This will be overwritten in the FRP partition aswell with the new account and the old one no longer queried.
You, mister, are my savior! Thank you very much.
Solve works for Lenovo Yoga 3 tablet
Just a big giant thank you! My dad passed away leaving me a Lenovo Yoga 3 tablet, unable to gain access due to information stored in the FRP partition. :highfive:

I marked the word and only that is offered on the top right side is : SELLECT ALL - CUT - COPY.
There is no ASSIST option . I don't know, maybe this tablet on my desk has a newer android version with that option removed...
Is there any other solution? Probably will be helpfull for me as well for someone who will have tjis problem in the future
Thx in advance
