[Q] NFL 2011 App

I went to go download the NFL 2011 application from the market today but it doesn't show up. Does any one happen to know why? Just curious hopefully it starts showing up soon.

I notice the same thing, and 12 won't show up either.

Think I figured out why I don't see the app, if you go to the android market website (not the app). Then go to "My Devices" it has nothing for my carrier. Not sure why, I will stay off wifi and see if it updates.

I was able to download the app. It's actually really polished and quick for checking up on scores without having to sift through interface.

Downloaded it Friday just fine from the market on my phone

I have resolved this issue and wanted to post what was found for any one else that may have this issue. The root cause of the issue ended up being the carrier (sprint) was not identified for the device. You could see this by logging into the android market website and looking at "My Devices" under "My Account". I contacted support and they replied with the below. I performed all of the steps they gave with the exception factory reset. This corrected my issue and caused Sprint to now show up under carriers and I was able to download the application with no problem.
I know this is long but I hope it helps someone out there.
*** Steps from Google Support ****
1. Go to your device’s app launcher, and press the Talk app
2. If you’re already logged into Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out
3. Launch Talk again to sign in (if you are unable to sign in, please let me know)
- Try your download(s) using both WiFi and network (3G/4G) connections
- Uninstall Market updates by visiting:
Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, selecting "Market" under the "All" tab or filter and touching "Uninstall updates"
- Unmount and remount the SD card:
Menu > Settings > Storage > Unmount SD card; then Remount SD card from the same menu, or restart the device if the remount option isn't available
If the above steps don't resolve the problem I recommend you perform a factory reset on your device. Please note that this will reset your device to its original state. While your media content (photos, music, etc.) will not be deleted from the SD card, applications and their related data will be uninstalled.
Before the factory reset, make sure that your contacts are synced to your Google account by logging into Gmail from a computer and verifying if your contacts appear there. If your contacts are not synced, then I recommend updating your sync settings at Settings > Accounts and Sync and choosing either AutoSync or touching the account you would like to sync and choosing "Sync Contacts."
Along with syncing contacts, please back up any important application data and/or settings by navigating to Settings > Privacy and selecting "Back up my data'"and "Automatic restore."
To perform a factory reset:
1) Go to Home > Menu > Settings > Privacy (or Phone storage; depends on the device)
2) Press "Factory data reset"
3) Press "Reset phone"
After you perform the factory reset, make sure you sign into your device with the same primary Google Account you were using before. If you have any questions or concerns before performing the reset, or if doing so does not resolve the issue, please let me know so I can continue to investigate the issue.

It didn't show up for me the first day the phone came out but I checked yesterday and it was there and downloaded it fine.

[Q]{SOLVED} SGH-I747 Mysterious loss of LTE Connection After Reboot/Power Cycle

Hello all,
So I have been trying to isolate this issue for 2 days now.
Basically, when coming from a fresh and clean restore of the Stock ROM (Firmware), after installing a few apps from the Play Store (Chrome, SwitchPro, Twitter and Facebook), after rebooting or powering off the phone, LTE Service stops functioning and I am stuck with HSPA+ (AT&T 4G) or less (connectivity is still automatic - e.g. calls and data still work, but LTE never returns).
I've tried several different approaches at isolating the issue, and at one point I narrowed it down to Chrome being the culprit, but then after a fresh wipe, I installed only Chrome and had no issues.
Searching around here on XDA hasn't brought me to any specifics either.
I can force LTE only via the *#2263# code, but then I lose voice capabilities.
Something is blocking LTE, obviously
At this point I have to avoid installing any of the above listed apps (particularly Chrome).
Things I've done:
Rooted
Installed CWM
Boot to Recovery and Formatted all Partitions
Entered Download Mode
Used Desktop ODIN to Restore Stock Firmware
Has anyone else been experiencing similar issues or know of a solution?
I reveted back completely from any and all root related elements to try and solve this issue but it persists
Let me know if you need more info or have any questions.
Thanks,
***UPDATE***
Issue was Resolved in Last Thread Post by me (see link below):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31003687&postcount=6

[Moved from OP]
***UPDATE***
I conducted another test and simply after logging into my Google account on my phone and then restarting reproduced the loss of LTE.
Does anyone know how I can effectively wipe any and all device stored data from Google's servers?
I think (although I did not enable the option) my phone is pulling down corrupt device settings from the Google server.

[Moved from OP]
***CONCLUSION***
As it turned out, there appears to be a bug in the Stock ROM where even when the auto backup feature is not enable, the Auto Restore of App Data is enable and functioning regardless.
Due to an issue with a custom ROM or GApps package previously used, some incompatible Data settings somehow got associated to the Play Store app.
As well, the base version of the Play Store app in the Stock ROM is not up-to-date. So once the phone connected to the network for data, it automatically updated the Play Store and restored the bogus Data settings.
The fix involved clearing the Play Store app data and cache, and uninstalling the update as well as completely disabling all backup and restore settings in the system settings app of the phone.
Sure glad thats over now.
I hope this thread may help someone else in the future.

[Moved from OP]
***REGRESSION***
Back to square one...
Factory Reset > Boot Phone > Reboot Phone anytime during or after initial setup = No More LTE

[Moved from OP]
***POST FAILURE THOUGHTS***
At some point in time I requested the SIM Unlock Code directly from AT&T for my phone and validated unlock status with a U.S. T-Mobile SIM Card.
This is the only thing left for me to think that might have triggered these issues. That the phone (in its newer unlocked state) now defaults to HSPA+ (AT&T 4G) is what I'm thinking.
What still makes no sense to me is, why on first boot of a completely wiped and restored phone, does LTE function as expected. But, once the phone is powered off and/or rebooted, LTE disappears on boot.
Someone, anyone, help... PLEASE!!!
Screenshot_01 First Boot, LTE = Yes

[Success] Issues Resolved
Yesterday evening I made my way to the local AT&T Wireless store assuming I'd get my phone replaced since the issue seemed to be specific to my phone.
While at the store it was determined that I would have to go to a warranty center (a 20 min drive from where I was) that wasn't open at the time (I would have needed to wait until tomorrow/today).
So, instead we (the associate and I) tried to troubleshoot the phone in the store.
We tested my phone with one of their SIM cards, and wouldn't you know it, LTE worked fine on my phone with their SIM card.
So the associate set me up with a new SIM card, but that didn't seem to fix the problem.
So he then looked in to the settings of the phone and went ahead and toggled the Data Roaming option.
At first we didn't think this would help since I wasn't in an area where roaming would occur, but to our surprise, LTE became available.
We ran through other tests like rebooting the phone, power cycling it and factory resting the device.
All tests passed.
I still don't know what caused the issue with my phone nor how we actullay resolved the problem, but it is now gone...

Lose your Android device, either to theft or your own forgetfulness, is certainly not fun, that's what happened to my wife last month with my Nexus 7 3G. Google has finally released its response to the loss or theft of your Androphone with Android Device Manager.
It should hit your device soon, if not already, to help you locate or wipe (factory reset) your Android device lost. Here's how to use it.
INSTALL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Android Device Manager will automatically hit your device without having to do a thing. If you don't have it yet, you will soon receive. But before you can take full advantage of ADM, you will need to do some things, such as allowing factory reset on your device. Its implementation is quite simple..
First, visit google.com/android/devicemanager.
and if you want you can download the apk => com.google.android.gms-1.apk - MD5 Sum: d1884b750aff2dc3ff435f95510420cb - Size: 7.30 MB (7649893 bytes)
From there, a map will pop up with some information about your device, along with a prompt to enable the Erase Device function of ADM. You can either manually open up the green Google Settings app, which should be in your app drawer, or use the send notification link on the ADM webpage, giving you an easy way to find exactly where you need to be to enable remote factory reset.
If you don’t use the notification, just open Google Settings, and select Android Device Manager.
The option to toggle both the ability to factory reset your phone from ADM, and locate it, will be in there.
Using ADM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After you’ve done that, you’re ready to set to go. At the moment, there are three main functions of Android Device Manager. You can ring a lost phone, factory reset a lost phone or locate your device on a map using your phone's GPS. You can also rename what your device appears as in ADM.
Simply you can load ADM online and will show you the location of your device, but if you’re tracking it while it’s on the move, there’s a refresh button that will recalculate your device’s location.
If your device is located somewhere simply, like in your own house, you may want to use the Ring function. As Google explains, even if your phone is on silent, using the ring function in ADM will force your phone to ring at full volume for five minutes. To turn it off, you have to press the power button on your phone.
There’s nothing on your device indicating why it’s ringing, you’d have to know how to stop the ringing or play around to figure it out.
If you believe your device has been stolen, and you have some precious information on it, then the Erase Device function will come in handy. After you click Erase Device, a pop up will tell you what it will erase (essentially everything), and what will happen after that.
Unfortunately, Google says it “may not be able to wipe the content of the SD card in your device.” Best of luck if you have anything private on there.
If your device is off when you try to factory reset it, have no fear. The moment it’s turned on, it will be erased.
You may think erasing the content of your device is the best thing to do as soon as you find it’s missing, but you may want to hold on. After you erase your device, ADM will not work anymore.
Conclusion:

For the moment, that’s all there is to it. As with all of Google’s products, we expect to see more features added in time and more practice
Thanks to Androidandme

I'm sticking with cerberus for a while. But I guess ADM may become even better in a few months
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

I wish there was an option to set a pin on the phone remotely.

When I login to android device manager web site, how come my phone was not listed there?

Sorry If I'm asking this Question in the wrong section but whenever I locate my device, ADM send a notification to my device which seems to be quite silly as if my phone is stolen, the thief will be able to see this notification and may turn off ADM completely. Any suggestions to turn off the notifications??
I've already remove ticked from show notifications by going to Settings =.> Apps... that didn't work out

Huawei Nova Plus - Phone Backup and Restore Guide

1. Choosing a Backup Tool
Back up your files easily, meaning you'll never lose your data again. Huawei provides phone backup and Huawei HiSuite, comprehensively protecting your data.
Scene one:
With so many useful tools, how should you choose the one most suited to your needs? When your phone has an SD card installed, it is recommended that you use Huawei's backup feature, which allows you to easily back up your contacts, photos, and all your apps and their data.
Scene two:
What if you don't have an SD card or a new phone? Don't worry: There is always HiSuite, allowing you to save your data to your computer. Once you have repaired your phone you can recover your data.
2. Phone Backup
2.1 Backup
You might easily overlook the backup app, but once you use it, you'll discover just how powerful and useful it is. Find the Backup app on your home screen.

}
Choose the location to which you want to back up your data, and touch Next. On the Select data screen, depending on your needs, you can choose the data you want to back up. After you have completed your selection, touch Back up to begin.
Your phone will back up differently depending on the type of data you want to back up. If the data includes Contacts, Messaging, or Call log, the system will prompt you to set a password. After you set one, touch Next or you can touch Skip if you don't want to set a password. The following example is for a user who wishes to set a password. After this is complete, touch Next to begin backup.
2.2 Restore
Once you have simply and easily backed up your data, how do you restore it? As before, go into the Backup app, touch Restore, choose the source of the data to be restored, and touch Next.
If you have set a password for your backup data, when you restore your data you will need to enter your password and then touch OK to access the Select data screen. If you did not set a password when you backed up your data, you will access the Select data screen directly. Select the data to be restored and then touch Start restoration.
After you touch Start restoration, a Select data dialog box will pop up. You can choose a location to restore your backed up data from Videos, Photos, Audio, and other locations. Once you have made your choice, touch OK to begin restoration.
In this way, you can easily and quickly complete data backup and restoration.
Note: In the preceding procedures, the latest version of Huawei phone backup is used. When conducting a backup, follow the actual onscreen instructions of the backup function on your phone. Different phone brands may use different formats during backup, leading to unsuccessful backup and restoration. Please check your phone.
3. Huawei HiSuite
3.1 Connecting Your Phone to HiSuite
1. Run HiSuite on your computer desktop.
Connecting and recognizing your phone: In general cases, your phone is set to enable HDB so there is no need to turn on USB debugging. You can connect your phone to the computer using a USB cable. If you cannot connect, check whether your phone has HDB enabled. If your phone does not have HDB, turn on USB debugging manually and connect to your computer. See section 3.2 "Enabling HDB" for more details on the steps required to enable HDB. See section 3.3 "Enabling USB Debugging" for details on how to enable USB debugging.

Touch Home, then Back up, and then select the data you want to back up.
On the data backup page, select Alarms, Weather, or other content as required. Select a backup path and then touch Back up to begin.
The system will prompt you to set a password. You can choose to set a password and then touch Next, or you can touch Skip to avoid setting a password.
When backup completes, there will be a notification: Complete.
3.5 Restoration
On the home page of HiSuite, touch Restore to access the restoration page.
On the data restore page, you can select the data to be restored as required, and then touch Restore.
When data backup is complete, there will be a notification: Complete.

Sim being disabled and cell icon gone fron status bar

I have had this reoccurring issue for some time now, my SIM gets disabled and cell icon is gone from the status bar. Thing is, I still have data and can make calls. This happens randomly and cant reproduce it, sometimes it may be a few days, sometimes up to a month or more, but always happens after a reboot. Don't think it's a hardware issue, cause a clean flash of a rom clears it up, I think there is something hidden that is causing this to happen, maybe not. I have also replaced the SIM several times, but the issue comes back. Still have the correct IMEI's and "Settings > About Phone" as well as "Testing Mode" shows the SIM to be functioning properly. Anyone out there have a guess at what might be the issue?

Ok, it took only three reboots this time for this to happen. Rebooted to TWRP and wiped data, rebooted to OS and have signal back. There has to be something on the software side causing this to happen, just don't know what. If it was hardware, just wiping data wouldn't make it work again. Forgot to say which rom, I'm running LineageOS 16 official.

Flashed OOS 9.0.4 last night, rebooted the phone around lunch today and same thing happens. At least with OOS, the icon is there, well the disabled sim icon and it also shows the working tx/rx arrows next to the icon. It's just weird how the system thinks the sim is disabled, yet I still have service.
As you can see, sim is disabled in top bar and "Settings > SIM & Network", but "About Phone > Status" and Testing Mode show that it's active

Think I may have solved my problems. A while back, I tried the method of fixing IMEI with erasing modemst1/modemst2 and kept getting "FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)", even though the bootloader was unlocked. With that in mind, maybe not being able to flash those partitions was causing my sim/IMEI info from being stored and therefor loosing service and sim being disabled. So today I did the unbrick method of using the MsM download tool to completely reflash my phone. After enabling OEM unlock and fastboot unlocking phone, I can now erase modemst1/modemst2 partitions. So, I am now in the process of flashing back LineageOS and will see how things go. Will report back later on results.
