A strange buzz inside my phone topic

Hello everybody,
Last night I heard for the first time a strange buzz coming from inside my phone, it's like a crackling and it seems to start occasionally when I press back, home, and app drawer soft keys. It starts also when launching some apps, but less often than with the softkeys.
It is located near the camera.

What could it be?
Should i use my warranty?

Thanks.

[Q] Strange wifi issues topic

Hey guys, been having this problem for a while but finally had enough of it!

For a start, in the wifi list in settings it doesn't show me which network I am actually connected to.
In addition if i tap another wifi network which despite already previously been connected to it , it will still ask me for the password again, after which it keeps saying failed to connect, it wont let me connect to it

I have been getting around the problem by using WPS on my wifi router and "WPS Push Button" in the settings menu when I'm home to get it to connect to my home wifi as opposed to "BT OpenZone" every time, which is quite frustrating!

I'm rooted on stock rom , Build Number KOT49I.D80220h however this problem has been ongoing atleast since before the last 2 updates.

Any ideas/troubleshooting I can do??
Cheers amishra123

[Q] Strange power on issue topic

I've inherited a HOX which I'm trying to set up for my wife to use. It has a very unusual issue, when plugged in either to a charger or a PC, it shows no indication of charging - i.e. no red LED. On a PC, it intermittently gets picked up as an unknown device - or more correctly 3 unknown devices, maybe mass storage, composite & MTP? Not sure cos it doesn't pick up any device info. As I say it is intermittent which suggests the micro-USB socket might be at fault.

But there is evidence that it is accepting a charge because every 10 minutes or so the phone vibrates and displays the initial start-up screen i.e. white background with HTC logo & it doesn't get past that. It doesn't show the 'Quietly brilliant' screen first like on a regular start-up. The screen stays lit for 3 minutes or so, then it flickers and turns off. Then it turns on again about 10 minutes later and goes through the same cycle. It does this continually when plugged in. I've also tried charging using the 2 end dock contacts and it goes through the same cycle. Also, the battery & board are both warm but not hot.

I've ordered a replacement USB socket which is easy to fit as its not soldered - this might help with PC access.

I've also tried using a variety of button combinations, but the buttons seem to be completely inactive and don't do anything either when it's in the 'on' or 'off' mode.

Any ideas? I've searched and haven't come across anyone else experiencing this issue.

[Q] Strange Questions topic

Hi,
I have two strange questions.
1. Is your internet for your nexus slow? Because my wi fi speeds on this thing is terrible, do you know any fixes?
2. I like to be rooted, but I also like to be stock android. Is there a way to do this without wiping all my data every upgrade? Also if there is a method to not wipe your data, is it safe?

Seems pretty suspicious to me. Why would they be offering an update via email and not through the Play Store?

Just wanted to share it and get some peoples thoughts.

Looking forward to hearing back.

Strange Line on screen topic

My XT1032 was on GPE 5.0.1 and decided to flash official CM12

I tried to flash but it wont worked (maybe because of the small /system partition idk) so i flashed via Fastboot the 5.0.1 Moto GPT and i was able to flash it


But now i get a weird line on my screen which goes from top to the bottom every boot like in TWRP on 41.18 (5.0.1) Bootloader which only disappear until the next restart when i lock the screen


Is there any solution to remove it permanent or will that happen forever also for next (stock-)roms?

Im a bit confused :/

[Q] strange electric buzzing Noice from top speaker topic

Hello,

This might be a double post, but nevertheless I have noticed a strange buzzing noice from the top speaker. It seems to occur when i switch wifi off and then on. At that moment when it is receiving and sending data. It seems that the speaker comes on and creates it. If i have to discribe it i would say it sounds like electrical currence or a something shortcutting. Anyone else with this problem? I mailed my provider today and i am looking to send my device back soon.

Also, offtopic, i noticed that the screen isnt positioned properly, on the left side it sticks out...

For me two reasons to look for a replacement nexus 6.

Regards,

Elroy

[Q] Xperia Z Strange Behaviour with Battery connected topic

Hi XDA community, i open this thread for know if anyone have a similar issue.
When i connect the USB charger to my Xperia Z, nothing appear, no led and no vibration, seems totally dead, this occur with an original wall charger or with a PC-USB connection, but just when i disconnect the battery of the phone with the USB cable connected to USB PC or wall charger, the red led blink 2 times and become blue if i press immediatly vol+ or become green if i press immediately vol-, obviously immediately after battery disconnection.
With the battery connected no signs of life, seems that if the battery is connected the USB connection refuse to activate, but the strange thing is that without battery i'm able anyway to flash any firmware without problem, but after a correct flashing without error no signs of life and no boot.
I think there something wrong with the battery management, but the battery works 100% because i tested with other phone and work, and i tried to use other working battery but always same problem.
Anyone have this issue or know something about it?

Disscution about system folders, and strange miui apparition topic

Hey guys,

I have noticed a weird thing: i was on Ivan's AOSP ,and CarbonROM with TDB, and i wanted to restore a backup, of AOSP. Long story short, i disabled TDB, wiped everything, restored the AOSP backup, and restarted the phone and it showed the MiUi logo,and an update (like apple update) bar, and it booted into Miui v6. The miuiv6 was chinise without the gapps. I didnt had backup of Miui, nor zip of miui v6 on the phone.
Also the CWM "bug" with TDB, 2 folders of backup, Internal files messed up, when going into install zip i have the /sdcard/ "folder" and have : 0/ ;clockworkmod/ ; legacy/ and obb/ . How do i clean up all the folders inside and not mess up the phone? I've been thinking about the fastboot option, but i dont want MIUI v6 again .

Thank you for reading!
Cristi

P.S: If this thread should go into Q&A, then i am sorry for putting it in Discussion.
