[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyxover:
I'd try updating the firmware first to see if its just a software issue first, however i've heard the update had been pulled from the server, in the bricked transformer thread some people got a link for a downloadable SD card update file, see if if can get the link from those guys and give that a try.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brachiopod:
Someone else on here had that same problem, and the 10 seconds press shutdown, 2 minutes off, then turn back on reboot fixed it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X-ception:
Tried resetting but no use, waiting for the software update to see if it would help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuntdouble:
Try doing the forced power down 10-12 seconds holding down the power button... after multiple boot ups. I've not had reports of any firmware fixing this particular issue, as other people who have mentioned speakers not operating got their devices working normally by force powering off with the above method. If yours definitely isn't working after that, it sounds like it might be a hardware issue and therefore need replacing via an RMA.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
would it be possible to add the option to CWM to backup into a rom.zip instead of nandroid backup?.... this would be awesome....

backup your rom with system and user apps and data into a wiping rom.zip... quick flashing back and fourth and easy rom creation.... (watch out for accidentally sharing personal info... though)
[Atrix 4G General] nate_benji:
I was wondering if anyone had a fresh Bell cwm nandroid backup? I made one before i upgraded to the telstra firmware, but for some reason my sd card was formatted and i lost the backup. I just wanted to have the ability to restore to the Bell software if an ota update comes out.

Can anyone help me out?
[Android Apps and Games] djgdroid:
I've got a Coby Kyros MID7015a tablet that I've tried everything to get it rooted. I don't understand why my tablet isn't getting rooted when there are others that have the same exact model being rooted. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or what. Fortunately I've had a very smart moderator on the ATZ forums (Taysmom) helping me but for some reason it won't root. When I try and root using Z4, temporary or permanent root it goes to the Z4mod screen where it is supposed to be running exploit but the working symbol just spins and spins for several hours.

Please any help would be appreciated.

How do you think the Samsung Charge will stack up to the competition? Not that exciting next to other Verizon upcoming LTE enabled devices? Or better than the rest?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwshadow:
Its a galaxy s with a better screen. It has the same internals. The thunderbolt has a better processor and a decent screen. The bionic is going to be a dual core monster and the sgs2 will be out later with the best of all worlds. The charge is a last generation smart phone with a new screen. I wouldnt put my money on it winning any contests.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHANGiism:
Do we know if SGS2 will have LTE modem in it? I hope it does, but the only confirmed model of SGS2 is for AT&T currently. SGS2 4G will make my year.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saps:
Well there is a screen shot somewhere showing SGS2 coming to VZW but thats not a lot to go on. Still, I can't imagine they would ignore the VZW market. Likely they will just be months behind, the way the fascinate was to the captivate
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSonicEmerald:
The SGSII will probably on every carrier, seeing as how well that went for the original Galaxy S.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuroEdge:
Am curious whether the SGS II will have Qi (wireless charging) or not
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s44:
This generation is different, though. Verizon, and only Verizon, is pursuing LTE for its next-gen data -- since EVDO sucks and is deeply limited. And since Voice over LTE (VoLTE, which is why I guess all the Verizon 4G phones have the lightning motif) doesn't exist yet and you need 1x and 3G data for full coverage anyway, this means that Verizon models will need two separate radios instead of just being able to swap the GSM chip for the CDMA chip. LTE is even bulkier than WiMax, because it requires a SIM card and MIMO as well.

So while AT&T and T-Mo (if the latter continues to exist) will get something basically equivalent to the SGS2, Verizon and Sprint will end up with a bigger form factor -- like the Epic or Charge. And we'll have to wait a while this time too.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
AT&T is going to HSPA+ short term for "4G" and LTE is their long term plan, so they'll need the same LTE radio as VZW phones when they decide to start up their LTE network and phones/devices.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superchunkwii:
I'm waiting.

If I go 4G, I want more than just 4G. I want dual core, good battery, front camera, better screen, hdmi out, etc.

Since LTE is so new, I may wait a year anyways. I may pick up the Sony Xperia Play so I can have the latest Android with all the above except 4G while adding real game controls.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuroEdge:
It is my understanding that 1st year LTE phones will be like 1st year 3G phones; horrible battery life. Reference the Thunderbolt lol
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s44:
The reviews say the Charge actually has good battery and kills the TB on that.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Balthazar B:
So why no Charge section at XDA again?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] mtmerrick:
So, I've been trying to find a concrete answer, but I can't seem to. By now, I'm almost positive that the Vortex is a variation of the Optimus One, but what i want to know is, how modified is it? Are all Optimus One specified apps, programs, ect compatible with the Vortex? Will Optimus One ROMs work? I just wanna be sure before I start any hardcore modding.

if you delete or rename these rumor has it that if you do a factory reset to default it will brick ur phone ill will upload the files along with a update.zip tonight

I was also able to remove Acer Sync.

Guys,

When you say removed, do you 'App deinstalled' or 'Apk file deleted' ?

Cheers,

[Acer Iconia A500] silencer51:
First I backed up the entre /system/app folder on an sdcard.

Then I started removing apps using Titanium backup (uninstall option).

I too removed Acer Sync, among others.
[Acer Iconia A500] das7771:
you can also rename the file extension to bak. that way u can easily restore it if needed...just reset the tab when your done and it will not load on start up but remain in the folder.
[Acer Iconia A500] ardatdat:
I also remove:

Phone.apk

TelephonyProvider.apk

after renaming, you need to reboot for effect
[Acer Iconia A500] evoss05:
so all .apk can be changed to .bak? like acersync.bak???

and what about the other one? .obex?
[Acer Iconia A500] silencer51:
Guys, quick question - by default there are 123 files in /system/app, right (.apk and .odex), right? Just making sure I haven't misplaced a system app while tinkering!
[Acer Iconia A500] das7771:
I rename all apk's to bak instead of deleting them...that way if u need it later you just rename it instead of having to load them back on the device. I haven't renamed the odex files but I assume if you rename the file its associated with then it should be fine.
[Acer Iconia A500] Petros_tigra:

[Acer Iconia A500] threedfreek:
Android/Linux runs apps within the apps own Zipped file (apk) try renaming an apk to zip and crack it open... you will see the the app and all the supporting files in it... when you remove the apk the program is gone... it's not like the windows installer that runs an exe to write all of the program files into place.

[Acer Iconia A500] ardatdat:
You need to root the tablet first,

after that, get the 'rootexplorer' app to rename file

I know so far:

* It cost more than a G1

* It does not get system updates

* Its not quite as open as advertised

On the plus side it has a little robot etched on the back. At this

point I'd rather have a G1 - why is Google punishing its developers?

Its almost better to run ADP software on any android.. rather than buy a true dev phone!

I ordered one from Hong Kong via ebay, arrived in great shape and excellent packaging.

If anyone has any suggestions for taking the rest of the phone apart please message me! I'm left with the thinnest phone in existence lol. See link
[Focus General] eried:
Can you share the link from ebay?

Because some offers show a screen with fingerprints, and the sellers does not seems to understand what you ask.

Too bad that the bezel seems to be attached with glue :( did you tried to use a heat gun as the link you shared suggests?

Can you exchange all the electronics without changing the screen right? (to keep my phone unlocked, with nodo, etc, but change the screen+bezel from a new complete phone)

I am thinking on order a complete phone because the lcd screens are just too pricey.
[Nook Color General] Turmith:
I formatted and re-imaged my nook today from 1.0.1 Rooted to stock.

I then manually updated to 2.1 for flash capability.

Now I want my Root back.

For some reason the NOOK won't boot off of the SD Card anymore, it just ignores it until it's booted and I can see the files on the SD card.

I've imaged my SD Card with multiple versions of CWM, shut off my nook, inserted the SD card and plugged in a USB cable to initiate the process.

Is it possible that it requires the "Nook" USB cable to start the boot off of SD Card process or will the cable for my Droid Incredible work as well?

It's the only thing i can think of at this point that is causing the problem.

I won't get my nook cable till tomorrow so i can't test it.

Thanks,

Turmith
[Nook Color General] ylixir:
You don't need the cable to boot off the sd card, all the cable does is turn the thing on.

You are probably not flashing your card right, it's not simply a matter of copying files over, there is data that needs to be put on the card that isn't part of the files you can see.

If you are using an old nooter or autonooter card, it's probably corrupted or something. You don't want to use those old rooting processes anyhow.

The rooting process is also different now than in previous releases. You should do some reading on how to make a bootable cwm card and what the new rooting process for 1.2 is.
[Nook Color General] Turmith:
Thanks,

I believe you are right, the sd card isn't being flashed correctly.

I tried following the instructions here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1054027

Still got the issue where the nook would completely ignore the sdcard yet read it once it was booted.

So i tried formatting the sdcard with my Droid Incredible, then flashed it using windiskimger using the instructions provided in the link above.

Now when i try to boot off the card i get a blank black screen(never gets to "Read Forever" screen.

I have to remove SD Card, hold power button in(10 sec), release and then hold Power button in again(10 Sec) to get the nook to boot back into 1.2

I'm considering doing the 8 failed boot thing and seeing if it will restore 1.0.0 or something at this point.

Any suggestions?
[Nook Color General] ylixir:
Well that's progress ;-) at least it's trying to boot from the sd card now even if it's not succeeding.

are you using your droid as a uSD adapter for your computer, or do you have a dedicated uSD reader? that might be your problem. I'd try using a separate card reader.

You can get something like this basically anywhere for under $10. Try target/walmart/kmart/staples or like i said basically anywhere ;-)

I don't use windows for flashing but i've noticed some people saying they have luck with some programs for flashing more than others, try reading around, maybe you'll find an alternative to windiskimager that works better for you.

P.S. Formatting before flashing doesn't do anything at all. The flash should erase anything on the card and replace it exactly with the contents of the image you are flashing, regardless of whether it's freshly formatted or filled with 10 years of irreplaceable photographs
