Accelerometer not working.

Background: installed dk28 then went back to stock following wiki guide. I have wiped the phone several times after that cause that's the only fix I have found on here. I then reflashed twice. Still have the problem using any android applicatons (gallery, email, etc..) games work fine. Asphalt, bubble level, etc..
Fix: HELP I NEED ONE! How can I calibrate accelerometer? Reset it? Factory reset does not work as a fix.

A simple search for "fix accelerometer" would provide you with this exact link (see below). Please try the search button next time. I'm not new to this forum but have never had to ask a question because of the "magically appearing solution juice" I can squeeze out of the search box. I'm not trying to be a "you know what" to you, but I had the exact same problem, searched it and found the solution in less than 3 mins.
BTW I love XDA...you guys rock.
Hope this helps

Here is the easy way
Download Terminal Emulator BTW you must be rooted
***MUST BE ROOTED***
1. Download a terminal app from the market - (Android Terminal Emulator)
2. Enter one line at a time.
su

pay attention to the bump at bottom on back.
After you're done, reboot.

I have absolutely no experience with that however, I did a search on Google and this thread popped up. All I searched for was "how to edit build.prop":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1236732
Anyone feel free to verify/correct me as I have never edited my build.prop before and I don't intend to. This is for anyone who may be looking for an answer. I won't say it is the answer as I've never done this before but hopefully this helps someone get on the proper train of thought.

if you're rooted try removing or renaming the phone.apk in /system/app. Make a copy of the ROM .zip to flag the original first in case something doesn't work ans definitely a backup in cwm. This should disable the activation nag and data phone capabilities. Not a good idea if you want to use it as a phone.

If you can't use your phone for text,data,and talking, you can disable it as it essentially disables the ROM's use of the cell's radio (wifi should still work).
Couple ways to do it:
1. remove the phone.apk from the zip and transfer new zip to sdcard and wipe system in recovery and re-flash rom.
2. Using root explorer or some kind of app that can write to /system, delete or rename the Phone.apk found in /system/app and reboot. If you get force close messages, just battery pull and boot the phone up again.
And, no there's no editing of the file itself just making the android system not able to find it. Not officially supported by devs to disable the radio but if you're having struggles to skip activation it is definitely worth a shot.

You're talking about the screen that comes up when you first turn the phone on after you first buy the phone?
There's a way to do it without changing the build.prop, I'll look for it. I actually did it when j first got my phone.
Some people have said if you tap the top left, top right, bottom right, and bottom left corners in that order it bypasses it.
It works for some, the way I did it involved dialing some **number and changing somethings to 0000000

Here I found a link to where it says how to tap the corners
http://www.androidcentral.com/bypass-activation-screen-your-android-device
And I found the way I was talking about when you call **778 and change the settings
1. Select emergency call and dial ##778.
2. Select edit and enter service password 000000.
3. Select NAM Settings.
4. Change Mobile Directory number to 0000000000 (Ten digits).
5. Change MIN1 to 0000000 (Seven digits).
6. Change Mobile Country Code to 000 (Three digits).
7. As you back out "Commit the Change".
8. The phone will auto reboot in 10 seconds.
#2 works permanently as I remember and it's pretty easy to do.

[Q] Rooted Stock JB, Thether or MSL?

I have rooted the stock JB, which I have read is odexed.
Straight answer, can I find my MSL, and can i get wifi tether on it as it is right now (stock odexed root JB)?

AHA
I don't think it matters if you are odexed or deodexed: but the answer to both your questions is a simple YES.

Well, the apps don't work. Wifi Tether does not work, and the MSL one does not work either. If you know this can be done, I will appreciate pointing me in the right direction.

If your on jelly bean then getting the msl is easy. Install terminal emulator on the phone. Open it up and hit home. It will stay open and youll see it in the notification bar. From there go into the dialer and press ##3282#. Hit Edit and it prompts for the msl. Leave it blank and press ok. It will say the code is invalid. From there pull down the notification bar and press on the terminal so it opens back up and type "getprop ril.MSL" and the code should show. MSL must be all caps like i have it. Wifi tether must be this one http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426338 and you need super su installed to use it.

I was able to get the MSL. Thank you very much, but to others trying this, you must hit the notification bar real quick or the phone will reboot once you enter a wrong MSL.
The WiFi Tehter does not work on odexed, according to the thread and it certainly did not work for me. The ssid never shows up anywhere.

It will work on odex roms but supersu is a must. Superuser will not work. And do not change any settings in the tether app

Sprint ##somenumbers## update

Hi all,
I know I will probably get flamed for this question, as I have seen it somewhere, but I am unable to find the answer using the search. Does anyone know the number to do whatever update this is? It's ##something## to update "IdontKNOWwhat".

Don't know off the top of my head, but check the MD4 thread in GD. There's a five digit code that starts ##75... maybe that's what you're talking about? There's also ##3282# (DATA), but you need your MSL to get past that menu I think.

Visual Voicemail

OK, so this may not even be the result of running a custom rom because it hasn't worked with any of them. When I click on Voicemail which isn't setup yet by the way, all it does is send me to my messaging app. It gives me no options to set it up, or check voicemail.

I removed the Visual Voicemail application. It can be added back.
The icon for Visual Voice mail is tied to the Messaging app.
I need to edit the messaging app to rid that icon. for now just use the feature to "hide" it in the app drawer.
of it you want the app, pull it outta the bloat.zip

Okay, thanks

are you using my empty flashable.zip..?
just pull vvm.apk and put in system/app
Once I get my phone back, and or you have S-OFF this won't be an issue.
Aroma will solve a lot of these types of issues as well.

Okay, I put it in place of the null file in the app folder in your flashable zip and after re zipping it it failed when flashing

Don't unzip then rezip. Use a tool like 7zip and drop it into the zip. It failed because by unzipping, you broke the signature

exactly what Ty said.
I am expecting my phone back today, and my first project is Aroma..
so bare with me.. (not you Ty)
I will be getting the ROM to where I am comfortable with calling it a full non beta release.
Only reason it's beta is because I don't have Aroma set up yet, once that is set up, it's game on.
you will be able to re-flash the ROM.zip pick "MOD only" and then select JUST the .apk you want (NO you can't remove apps, use root explorer for that, I think S-OFF takes away write protection but I have no idea yet, if not, then, well, we will need to get used to that .zip that deletes files (it's quite easy, once you try it out and everything)

Have you had any luck ridding the VVM icon and whatever else from the messaging app yet. I had a nasty issue related to the new VVM.
I will spell it out here in case anyone else has this issue.
So i like always update my phone when updates come out.
The new VVM has some addition network elements tied to it on the back-end.
Long story short this 443 update has created randomly dropping my mobile connection. I tried re flashing the radios, the stock rom, going back one radio version, etc. I mentioned this in a post in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one/help/wifi-bluetooth-mobile-data-wont-off-t2883253
I don't believe it is anything we have done in here, but the issue was with exclusively mobile data where it would disconnect but still show 4g, anyways back to the VVM
I had to revert to 442 stock rom as it didn't have the disconnecting issue
Since i already ran the newest 443 VVM app with those additional features, the 442 VVM fails with error code 2004 when on a 442 ROM
So i had to be coy when calling VZW to get them to reset this. Lucky they didn't ask SW/HW versions, so basically they had ' reset the network elements ' associated with the newest version. WORKED!
So if this happens to you , all i said was it came down as an update, i didn't like it, and reverted back and now it does not work, etc.... I tried to find the newest update again but cant find it.
I was wondering how the VVM icon still there after removing the APK, that answers that. I tried to load the newest VVM on 442, and epic fail lolz
Just providing some info for everyone

Foolish me, this is so very simple, I just forgot that you have to do it on a 100% clean flash, you can't use a flashable.zip as it is an .xml system edit.
system/customize/resource/allapplication.xml
basically you edit this .xml just search for "voicemail"
you will find this line of code
Code:
<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]0[/COLOR][/B]" />
change it to
Code:
<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR][/B]" />
to be quite honest though to save yourself A LOT of time, just hit the menu button in app drawer click hide apps and hide it, that is what this MOD does anyway...
