[Q] Starlight HD2 Android 2.2/ HD T8585 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought a starlight HD2 from China. I have had the phone but it is very sluggish and takes ages to go into applications and sometimes it dont go into applications al all. On the back of the phone when you take the cover off it says HD T8585. Id there anybody out there that can help me to customise the rom to either android 2.3 or to make the software more responsive. I have searched the net and cant find anywhere I was told this is the nest site to get advice on.
Many Thanks

No traffic?

I'm getting a Hurricane soon.
Why is there like no traffic in this forum?
maybe cuz there are only 3 ppl who have it yet
I just bought one off eBay. Should be here in a few days. I hope someone figures out how to do a WM5 upgrade on this device. If not, it is still a cool phone.
I have one to. I even got tomtom mobile working It involved a regedit tweak, to set the screen from 130 pixels to 138 but it does the trick haha
But... It's got a t-mobile rom in it.
So I want another rom or a rom update. This rom freezes up sometimes when i'm being called, it just keeps vibrating and the buttons don't work anymore. Thus, I'm looking for either a qtek rom, or one from orange or the imate or something. I hear that qteks roms are the most reliable. Is this true?
When anybody here has got some info or something to help me out, it would be very very very greatly appreciated. If i can help anybody out with additional info, just drop me a line!

[Q] www.ssgwo.com update protection

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help me here. My parents TF-201 randomly starts talking to them saying that they are currently not protected and that they need to visit w w w.ssgwo.com to update their protection status. This website doesn't even exist and a google search comes up with nothing. So far there doesn't seem to be any other problems with their tablet, other than this, which is just annoying when it comes up.
I have searched all over the net and can't find any solution to this problem. I've browsed the forums here also, but as of yet I haven't seen anything similar.
Some help to removing this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Q] Galaxy S3 knockoff - does GPS work, can I change firmware?

Hi all
I hope that I am in the right place.
I currently have a MyTouch phone but was in China last week and saw these Galaxy S3 knockoffs and figured I would buy one.
I am now back in the States and the Galaxy works quite well but there are a few things I cannot get to work and was hoping someone could help.
Firstly the data connection from my service provider seems quite slow compared to the MyTouch.
Secondly the GPS does not seem to work. I have tried a few different combinations but no luck. I have enabled and disabled the Google location in the settings to no avail. I have left the phone on for more than 15 minutes trying to get a GPS signal but still no luck.
I know that the phone is a knockoff and did not expect much but it sure does work faster than the MyTouch – apart from the GPS and data.
So my question is –
Is there a way to get it to work? Would it be possible to reload the software on the phone with one from an original Galaxy? I am not sure of the terminology but does that mean I would need to flash the phone or root the phone – if this is the case, how easy is it to do and would it brick my phone?
Where would I get the firmware from to do so?
Any (detailed) help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

As far as i know these SGS3 knockoffs or clones do not have the same hardware as the SGS3 so you can't use custom SGS3 roms.
This forum is of no use to you unfortunately, do a search for your model on Google and you should find some forums that might help you

[Q] alliexpress got me.. please help me if you can

:crying: hello everyone! I have been on the site for quite sometime and have had so much help and gained so much knowledge from a lot of you here, so I just had to become a part of this amazing forum.. anyway... I bought a bunch of these
"2014 newest airplay DLNA miracast android 4.2 TV box With rj45 HDMI AV outPut A20 512MB/4G XBMC Media Player Smart Set Top Box"
here's a few pictures of it.. its running an allwinner A20 chip.. the xbmc it came with was just horrid. It would play anything hd on xbmc with extreme lag and chopping.. so I tried some other versions of xbmc and none are stable at all.. I just dug them outta the "man cave" in my house and installed the new xbmc 13 and it seems to be running way faster and smoother..... howwwwever. im getting that issue with no internet.. when im not in xbmc it the internet works great.. I flashed one of the boxes and screwed it right up now because I cant use the remote anymore.. and it wont play anything either. just black screen then freezes up... im wondering if ANYONE has had this box or has any ideas on what I can do to get these things working at least decent.. I found this custom "xbmc hardware accelerated" version which can let me at least watch one channel but it crashes quite often and kicks me right out of xbmc.. any help would be great guys. thank you so much for taking the time to read my nasty post. I just spent over 1000$ on these over 2 months ago and just don't know what to do anymore... I cant even send them back as the company is a joke and wont do anything. so alliexpress was able to get me about 300USD back.. but that's it.. im still out a ton of cash.. I cant add any pictures as I cant seem to save them from the site.. heres a link to what I got exactly
ok so I cant add a link either as im a new user. so I guess just type this into alliexpress
2014 newest airplay DLNA miracast android and its the white one on the top.. from enjoying company or whatever... :crying:

Not detecting SIM card, WiFi not working

Hello everybody,
I made this account specifically for this one problem, and i don't belive i've seen it before on this site. Alright, let me cut to the chase:I've had a Galaxy Trend plus for about a year and a half now (an oldie but a goodie) and i use it as my daily driver, mostly for emulators and WiFi. With one of those two knocked out, i'm desperate for help.
Okay, so all of a sudden it displays the no connection icon like a crossed circle thingy, and whenever i turn on WiFi, it won't detect it even 10 inches from the router. I've never had this error and i'm pretty concerned. My SIM card works on my friends phone, however. I've looked everything there is to look up, and i've done everything software-wise , which makes me think it's a hardware problem. If it is, is it under the warranty or not?If I can't make phone calls or browse the Interwebs, the phone is pretty much useless. If you guys have any suggestions or ideas, please help out an old Android fanboy
