    Root Screen turns on for a split second and turns back off

    When I wake it from deep sleep, it flickers on and then turns back off, so I have to click the power button twice to wake it. It must be hardware related because it happens with all different roms including stock based. It happens even with apps that wake the screen, like the Handcent popup...

    I flashed the V8 .cab coming from CM10 following these instructions - Flashing LG signed Firmware - LG Spectrum - RootzWiki Once it got to 94% the phone rebooted with the Verizon boot animation and sound, but it stuck for 15 minutes at the 4G LTE logo. I pulled the battery and rebooted but...

    Root Listen to voicemail without entering password

    Last night I put CM10.1 M3 on my girlfriend's spectrum, and we can't figure out how to bypass her entering the voicemail password every time. I googled it and tried several different things but couldn't get anything to work. She says she used to do "her number,,password", but that's not working...

    Root Why is my RAM so low?

    I was messing around in Total Commander and my phone started going really slow. I was just digging around, I didn't change or delete anything. I opened up my running processes and saw this: There was one cached process that was like 3.8 mb. I rebooted, looked in my running processes and...

    Root Space saving tips

    I came across a couple of big space wasters in /mnt/sdcard and thought someone else might get some use out of it. 1. If you use the Amazon appstore, for some bizarre reason a copy of all of the apks that you download are stored in /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/cache. You can...

    Root Governor changes to ondemand

    Every so often I'll notice that my phone seems choppy, and I'll open my cpu app and see that the governor has changed to ondemand from whatever other governor I was using. It's 2x weird because ondemand is supposedly one of the best performing governors, but it's choppier than smartassV2. It's...

    Root .android_secure

    In order to copy some apks, I have tried using Solid Explorer and File Manager to browse this folder. Solid Explorer gives me an error and File Manager tells me the folder is empty. The only way I can get in to this folder is by hooking the phone up to my pc. What gives?

    Root Stock kernel

    I'm looking for just the stock kernel. I have a nandroid with stock everything but if the stock kernel is available I would rather just flash that so I don't have to mess around with titanium backup. I poked around the forum a little bit but couldn't find it. Thanks.

    Root Link2SD

    I used this on my V and it worked great. MacFett's guide was very helpful. Recently I tried to dl a game and found out it was going to be over 1gb (surprise!), so I decided I would try Link2SD on this phone. I partitioned my 16gb SD card in to one 10gb main partition and one 4.82gb second...

    Google music, problems with track 1 on all of my albums

    Yesterday I made a Google Play Music account and told it to automatically upload my music. Then I ripped about 100 CDs and they uploaded as I ripped them. I had my computer running and uploading all night and all day today, and it finally just finished. I had many errors saying that songs...

    Root Hotspot

    Is the hotspot working with rooted phones? I poked around and saw at least one post where someone said it works using Wifi Tether for Root Users, but then some other people said they got an error 67 when they tried using the hotspot with a rooted phone. Does anybody have it working? What apps...

    CMAS alerts

    Is anybody else getting these? The government uses it to send texts to warn you about tornado warnings and other severe weather. It's a nice idea, but they text every five minutes to tell me about a tornado warning several hundred miles away from me. It's very annoying and I can't figure out...

    I rooted my gf's Spectrum a couple of weeks ago using the AIO package and flashed Broken Out 3.0. Everything has been working great until tonight when she sent me an email saying that her home screen is black and none of the buttons do anything except when she holds the home button she gets...

    I have an upcoming cross country plane trip and I'm trying to load some movies on my little V. I am using MoboPlayer. I got one movie to work well, it's an AVI. I have tried a few other movies that are also AVI and they are either choppy, have no sound, or don't play at all. They all work...
