Get Content from Another Phone Problems - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

I am unable to get the content of my old HTC One to move to my 10. When I try to use the "Get Content from Another Phone" tab in the Settings tab, the old phone cannot detect the PIN. Closer examination shows that the WiFi in the 10 shuts down when I try to use this feature.
I also tried to restore the backup using the HTC Sync Manager on my desktop. The Sync Manager cannot see the 10 when it is connected.
Suggestions?

Had the same issue. You need to put your SIM card in your 10 before the transfer tool will work properly.

Thanks, but a new nano ATT SIM card is in the 10, as well as the old micro ATT SIM card is in the HTC One. However, the old SIM card in the HTC One has been deactivated by ATT when the new one for the 10 was activated. Would that have any effect on the problem?
Not only will the transfer tool not work, but the HTC Sync Manager software on my desktop will not recognize the 10; so that method won't work either. The biggest problem is that I cannot transfer my calendar, in addition to the photos.
I spent a long time on the phone with an HTC CSR with no success. Arrggghhhh!!!!!

Just got off the phone with another HTC CSR on these two issues: 1.) HTC Transfer App doesn't work and 2.) HTC Sync Manager software doesn't recognize the 10.
He had no clue and said he would escalate the problems. He said I should hear back in 24-48 hrs.

Normal way, on the 10: settings, get content,htc android,
On the 9 : open transfer tool app, next wait until both phones display the same code... Nothing out of the regular way... Hopefully you can try again... May works this time....

[REQ] Sim tool kit

Hello, Other roms have an icon, I have tried starting the service by entering the command su am start Stk
Or same but for com.android.stk or com.stk.android, or combinations of the same.
Has anyone succeeded? Pushing Stk from other roms doesn't work.
Sorry for this question in a dev forum, but I wonder if this is a dev question.
Edit: Allgamer please move to general if it needs to be there.

Try something like this:

Your sim has to have addons for toolkit to run.

No joy. Says no such class. Read on google about needs to be built into rom as android unloads on boot.
I do already see stk.apk in system/app. My posts in other thread were to get back to original because I overwrite without backup
Reason why I need to do this.
I had my number ported onto this sim. But my.phone refuses to recognise new number in say status screen.
Also impacts samsung dive which tries to locate based on cell number so useless without the right phone number played back to apps when needed.

I can confirm that this phone does support and have Sim Toolkit - I'm using it right now. To use any services related to it you will need corresponding SIM and you should have separate applications in your app list. Well, at least that how I see it on my phone and have seen on Motorola Milestone (not on Nexus S, but that's entirely another story).

[Q] My problems with HTC One V

OK, so the following are the problems I have with my One V (PLEASE SOLVE NO. 1, 4, 6 FIRST!):
1. The Stock Messages App.
The stock Messages app on my One V got slower and slower and now it takes about 1 minute to open a conversation. :crying:
Moreover, if I want to send a message to someone, the contact name never appears when I type his/her name in the recipient text box.:crying:
To send a message, I have to open any conversation which I have in my Inbox and then when it opens up, I have to again go to compose message and then everything works fine. What's the problem?
2. Cannot view vCard Files.
When I open a VCF File, it asks for 'Contact under account'. And when I select one, all the contacts automatically get copied to the selected account. I want to view the contacts in my vCard file before copying them. How to do so?
3. It's Super Laggy
Now it's been a month I've use my One V and it has started lagging. Even updated to the latest Firmware update available in India, but nothing helped.:crying:
4. The Stock People App
The People app on my One V has become slow. I don't even have large number of Contacts (about 50)...:crying:
5. Temple Run
Gets stuck when I play Temple Run.:crying:
6. USB Tethering
First of all, when I connect my phone to my PC, the options for selecting Disk Drive, Charge Only, etc. pop up after 1 min. Earlier they appeared immediately.:crying:
Next, USB Tethering doesn't work every time.:crying: When I select USB Tethering and tap Done, the disk drives (HTC STORAGE and Removable Disk as they were named by default) are unmounted, but my PC does not get connected to the internet. After trying a lot of times (by unplugging the phone from the computer) it works once (I mean works after trying for at least 4-5 minutes).:crying: Why does this happen?
omg the list is just too big ;D hehe

No... I won't root it...
Give the little guy a restart now and then. Also, don't install loads of apps because they will open by themselves and eat memory ram! Install only what you need and delete what it is useless.
Think about it this way: The phone is your home and you are the janitor. You need to clean it up and keep it clean in order to be smooth. Do not put crap inside and leave it there.

I think the software version is the main problem here. 1.xx are damn slow, just as you say (and if I remember correct, there is no 2.xx update at your location ATM but this is not for sure).
If you are on 2.xx then I don't really know, mine works just fine altough it is loaded with contacts/sms/programs really badly . USB tether works fine, SMS is just as HTC dreamed it.
Oh and BTW I haven't ever played temple run, so can't help you about that

1. Sounds like the database might be corrupted. Try rebuilding it by going Settings > Apps > All > Messages > Clear data. None of your messages will be removed.
2. You can't see the contents of the vcard file before importing it. Not without third party apps at least.
3 + 4. Your phone might need a factory reset to be honest
5. Yep. Kill all other applications before starting it. ALL other. You might even need to go into settings > Development > Don't keep activities. The One V is simply not powerful enough to run it comfortably.
6. Can be that the USB cable is not working properly. Sounds like it at least. Otherwise it should work I guess, but anything involving HTC Sync is on a "lucky if it works"-kind of basis. Use wi-fi tethering if you can instead as this doesn't need HTC software to run and is therefore much more likely to work without problems.

That's good to hear. If you can wait for the official 2.08 then the problems will be mostly over, if of course, you don't want to root your phone.

U're quite dense. If you look at his signature you'll see that he's running a Custom Rom and the most logical explanation for him specifically stating 1.5Ghz is that he's using an overclocked kernel. You really should read a bit about rooting and go for it. Xda has a brilliant bunch of devs working towards better working ROMs for your device. Its not too difficult.....to root I mean.

Cannot really send video, or that it is faster, I can only say, that it is working fluent, and not really thinking of anything.
Software rev in my phone is 2.08.401.2 (europe of course) but I can assure you, that it lagged in 1. IDontKnowWhich version, at least with me.

The USB Problem is 50% solved!
My 6th problem (USB Tethering) is gone!:victory: Not completely, but now my PC gets connected to the internet every time when I select USB Tethering on my phone.
However, when I connect the phone to my PC and I select 'USB Tethering' on the 'Choose a connection type' window that automatically pops up, the notifications area says USB Tethering but my PC doesn't get connected to the internet. Even the USB Tethering option in Settings->More->Portable hotspot and tethering is not checked.
Then, when I manually check this USB Tethering option in Settings-> ... Portable hotspot and tethering, my PC gets connected to the internet.
Is there a good app that lets me make a shortcut of the 'Portable hotspot and tethering' area on my home screen?

HELP! Cracked Screen - How to retrieve photos onto PC?

Hi there, my sister has a one x (I use galaxy s3 btw
she dropped the phone and the screen now looks like a church window
is there a way that I can recover the photos of my nephew on it before we send it away to the insurance providers?
I have tried the HTC sync manager but I believe it needs confirmation keyed into the phone as it does not pick up a device.
all drivers have installed correctly and im running XP SP3 if that helps.
The phone is UK and on vodafone.
Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks in adavance

She should have the photos backed up on her dropbox account. If not, try and see if you can connect as mass storage.

There are two pieces of software that you can potentially use. One is called QtADB and the other My Phone Explorer. Both of these pieces of software have a functionality that allows you to control your phone from the computer by displaying on their UI your phone's screen. You can then control you phone using your mouse. This way activate Mass Storage mode, all do whatever you wish.

[Q] One X Sense 4+ (JB4.1.1) - Mass Storage problem

Hello all
After updating my phone to JB yesterday, I cant seem to mount usb-storage from within sense. Before (on ICS) i got choice of either Charge or USB-disk.
Now I get a new HTC Camera icon in my win-xp and a new CD-station drive..
And when I click on it, it asks me to put a disk in it.. Wierd.
I am using same HTC drivers i always been using. Version 1.0.7.0, date 27.08.2008
Did u install newest HTC Sync Manager?
Should work out of this disk drive, navigate to this with e.g. windows explorer.
Then u can set windows explorer to autostart "One X" when connected.
Also e.g. TotalCommander finds the Storage in Computer/HTC One X/internal storage.
LG, Helmut

In JB, It comes out in MTP something can provide double-mount in device and pc. If you can not get access to the sdcard dir from pc, just update(or install) htc sync in your pc and it will be ok.
On the off chance you are on XP it just won't work with MTP still looking for a fix lol! Getting redundancy money in January so will probs just get a new laptop lol!
I know about the new sync manager software, but it sucks donkey balls.
Before the JB update it just connected to my pc (windows 7) and Dropbox autouploaded every new photo i have on my phone.
Now that doesn't work anymore and the only way to sync my photo's is via this sync manager program, which sucks...
And then something else: I can't seem to get the screen on my phone where it says "charge only, diskdrive, etc..."
When I press the USB connected thingy in the notification bar it goes straight to portable hotspot & tethering options..
ROM = ARHD 12
Did you update through OTA ?
If so could you help me here:

I "solved" it. Short version: Went back to ICS (ViperX rom, much better and functional than JB at this point).
First try to solve it: HTC Sync.
It worked but then everytime i connected phone, HTC Sync popped up with no way to disable it (option to not launch sync did nothing).
MTP file transfer speeds sucks donkey balls too. And you can only do 1 operation at a time. And image browsing sucks. MTP just sucks.
Second try: Windows 7 upgrade
Atleast didnt have to have htc sync installed, which was a bit better. But MTP is still inferior experience than usb ms.
Third try sollution: ICS
Flashed faux 011m kernel, downloaded and flashed Viper X rom. Problem gone.

From what I know, that setting is gone "thanks" to MTP. With MTP it is no longer need to dismount SD-card from phone when giving usb access, but in return you get slower and convoluted file transfers.
i am having the same problems i cannot mount usa via recovery and i cannot access my sd via usb.. also i dont see how you call that a fix to the problem by going back to ics thats not a fix
any help to how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated..
Same problems on the HTC One S. I think it's bull**** how HTC is doing this mounting in JB. It's retarded.... Any way to fix this and get a decent mount (besides mounting in a recovery or going back to ICS...?)?

I know. Sense 4+ is really aggravating me and I would like to, it's just that on the One S, there are a few thing that aren't as good on Sense (IE: battery, camera, and others...). Was just wondering if there is a fix that anyone knows of. My main issue is to get iSyncr working. The connection keeps corrupting after a short amount of time because MTP is terrible.

Its already been said, but just to be clear, there is no fix because this is the way its supposed to work now (this is the payoff for not having a removable sd card - you can access your storage from the phone and the pc at the same time).
Maybe you could try uninstalling HTC sync (including drivers) and re-installing (then delete sync again to just keep the drivers if you don't like sync).
That's the set up I have and I'm not running into any problems transferring files back and forth between phone and pc
Yeah, its really annoying me now because I have loads of information, invoices, photos all trapped on my phone sync won't work and well there's no ad card to remove.

If you're on custom recovery, you can connect your phone that way. That's maybe not the best solution for every day, just if you really need something to get from the device, but it's still better than "you-can't-touch-my-internal-storage-use-Zune-instead" on WP7...

[[[[Q]]]] What you peeps using to pass Files ???

Sup peeps..
was wondering what people were using to pass files from computer to phone or vice versa... i know in windows its simple, but on mac, the phone doesn't seem to show..
I have problems with my Samsung phones with OS X, that is if they are rooted and Kies is installed. I have a 17" MBP and use an express slot 3/4 card reader to pop my microsd into a sd card and go from there.
I have found that an app called Airdroid (free) allows you to open a web browser and connect to your phone and have full access of it.
yeah, thing is, i wanted to use KIES but to be blunt, it is S**T, i've used kies wi-fi and its still slow as hell so im looking for an alternative
i was having issues with the SD card, which ever i used (tried about 4)
I searched online and nothing seemed to work, until i saw one which told me to insert the SD as quick as i could, becuase if stick in the SD slowly it won't read it, ODD as hell.... funnily enough it worked !!

Install Kies. After installing Kies, open, go to tools on the menu and select install drivers. Install drivers. You can then use Android File Transfer available form the market (download and install on your Mac.) When you connect your phone it will automatically open.
Cheers lads !!

was using this one but noticed you can't put the files directly in to the Ext SD... so do i have to drop it in a random file then move it from there onto the ext every time !?
Thumbs up for Airdroid here. I use it almost every time. 98% of the time at least. It's a fantastic, fast tool. If you're going to be copying gigs and gigs, then maybe over USB, but to copy over a movie or music or pictures, I use Airdroid.
