So in my many attempts to flash with no USB cord to get nvflash and no SD card

I stumbled across the stock recovery

from what I've heard, when the phone is off and u press vol - and power it factory resets u. But no recovery

....

But

If you go to settings, SD and phone storage, and then u unmount phone storage

Then go to rom manager and click reboot to recovery

U reboot into stock recovery

I can't seem to actually make selections there...

And I was trying to find the folder in root explorer where the ota update would go so I could push a rom as a fake ota update

May be ridiculous and stupid of me but I was bored and I'm impatient as hell...

Blah fml not having my sdcard aand USB cord
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rich2thad:
Is this even of any use.? For anything

Ugh I can't wait for clockwork to be able to mount internal memory

What do you guys find is the most reliable, accurate and easy to use tracking/remote control app? Referring to if you lose your phone or if it is stolen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jn_vista:
Wave secure... But its not free
[T-Mobile LG G2x] down8:
Lookout.

-bZj
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsapp:
Wave Secure....I am still getting it free as a beta user, although that was supposed to end when I got a new device, but oh well. I liked it enough I paid the $20 to put it on my wifes phone. Love the ability to backup and track from a PC. And putting in a new SIM card recently, I can attest my "buddy" got the text and my phone was locked. So if it ever gets lost or stolen, I am good unless the person with it knows to boot into recovery and wipe.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dannyHD2:
seekdroid. awesome awesome app! believe it was .99 on market. you can pinpoint, wipe phone and/or sd, send alarm with message to whoever has it, get google location and lock phone (with new lock code:) all from pc!

you can also hide the app from your drawer to make it harder to find, plus you cant uninstall it unless you deactivate the pone which is nice. and the best part its made by xda member!

search it
[Droid 2 General] freakboy13:
Ok so after succesful GB install every things going fine until this:

every time I install a new or already paid for ap (like re-installing old ap I paid for like TI.backup pro) after it says dl'd it goes to "installing" and then...reboot :confused:

every time. any one experience this or have any solutions?

Everything else works perfect: wi-fi , out/incoming calls, internet,3g, etc.

I can get into market np and I can DL, but the minute it goes to install....bam!

reboot. :eek:
[Droid 2 General] floobmonsrake:
I expierenced the same thing on a custom gingerbread rom. Thats because I messed some stuff up though. I would say just SBF it back to stock, and if you want to reinstall the gingerbread update then you can.

Also did you wipe your phone before you installed gingerbread?
[Droid 2 General] silverfang77:
Download and run Market Fix, reboot and everything should be sweet.
[Droid 2 General] floobmonsrake:
I was under the impression that the market fix only makes certain apps capable of showing up. Does it fix other things too?
[Droid 2 General] freakboy13:
not my issue also in the op thread I dont see how this is going to help me.

For me when it comes to modding phones DL something "just to see" seems like a good way to brick your phone, and not having enough knowledge to fix bricks I dont want to take a chance.

How will a factory reset affect me? I have never FR. Everything else is running perfectly, I cant believe there is no way to fix this, its has to be a missing file/permission?

anyone?

Edit may 4 2011: so.... I ended up sbf phone back to stock, rerooting and decided Ill wait for the real GB release. Not sure why this bizaare shizzle happened but better to play it safe. too many people with issues with this gb hack, to many peeps BL'd. I still think it was interesting I was able to load the bootstrap from my ap "mini task" yet it would not load from the ap screen itself.
[Atrix 4G General] Deleted member 2488575:
Yep so I just found out that the atrix has an 8 core GPU thanks to the forum members below.

This seems amazing considering the SGSII has a quad core GPU
[Atrix 4G General] bigdog_nick:
Check this out:

http://www.nvidia.com/object/tegra-2.html
[Atrix 4G General] Deleted member 2488575:
OMG 8 cores?

So it is better than the SGS2
[Atrix 4G General] rjohnstone:
8 core GPU ;)
[Atrix 4G General] bigdog_nick:
Seems like so. From what i'm reading just now, the SGSII has a Mali-400MP4 which is only a quad core. Wow, Nvidia you outdid yourself. lol
[Atrix 4G General] Deleted member 2488575:
Why dont they advertise the 8 core GPU?
[Atrix 4G General] brian2220:
probably cause not many people know or even care what it is and moto and att didnt see it as a selling point
[Atrix 4G General] lonestarranger:
Dang, and to think I was always of the opinion that the Galaxy S phones had more GPU power than my Atrix.. Damn you AT&T.
[Atrix 4G General] vista1984:
not surprised as it's a geforce core
[Atrix 4G General] Deleted member 2488575:
well they advertise the dual core CPU
[Atrix 4G General] mrphil101:
Says it supports 12mp primary camera?
[Atrix 4G General] JayRolla:
The next tegra is a quad core cpu, 12 core gpu. Its going to be a monster.
[Atrix 4G General] brian2220:
that is always a big selling point in todays market
[Atrix 4G General] wirednix:
Holy Moly. 8 core GPU?

And the SGSII only has 4 core GPU?

The Atrix wins overall. No question about it.

[/s]
[Atrix 4G General] jivemaster:
Extra cores do not necessarily translate to win. Tegra is awesome, but has its limits, which are far more apparent than in the new Galaxy 2, which appears to be the most powerful Android phone to date.
[Atrix 4G General] Optimus-Prime:
YAY! 8 CORE GPU! what ever that means? lol
[Atrix 4G General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
as far as i know. the SGS2 oxynes or whatever its called is more powerful than tegra 2.

not my much tho.

however Nvidia has an advantage of Tegra zone. games specific to take advantages of the Tegra 2.

and that alone is way better than playing the same game the nexus S plays well only smoother.

this makes Tegra 2 a better GPU imho hands down. but not the most powerful.
[Atrix 4G General] cheetah2k:
What drugs are you on? SGS II? The most powerful to date? No ways Laydee

The Atrix hasn't even shown its true colours yet. Wait till Gingerbread is released. This will be the REAL test.

Only then will it be clear whether Atrix or SGS II is the better handset.
[Atrix 4G General] cheetah2k:
Its called Exynos, and NO, the reports out there peg the Tegra 2 to be better clock for clock.

Why do you think Samsung overclocked the Exynos to 1.2Ghz? To be competitive, because at 1Ghz it wasn't.

Samsung has won the Quadrant war for the moment, but lets see what the Tegra 2 overclocked to 1.2Ghz (unlock that bootloader damit!) and with AOS 2.3.3 can do. And the hardware war can't be won on just a SAMOLED+ screen thats still can't be viewed in direct sunlight, and is heavily pixelated at 4.3" & 800x480 resolution (I certainly prefer qHD).
[Atrix 4G General] CyberPunk7t9:
The Geforce ULV GPU in the Tegra 2 SoC is based on the Nvidia Geforce 6 series GPU architecture from 2004.

Computer GPU's at the time where still using "pipelines" before introduction of "unified shaders" (those are easier to be called multi-core) with the release of the nvidia G80 GPU in late 2006.

Piplines architecture has dedicated instructions shaders (nvidia like to call them cores for marketing reasons and to piss off Intel!) for each of pixel and vertex processing tasks. A GPU of this kind can't help itself if the load was heavier at one side of those tasks.

Where in "unified shaders" architecture those shaders can morph to handle any instructions tasks based on the load.

So it's more correctly to say the nvidia GPU in the Atrix has 8 shaders, But and it's a big BUT.. 4 of them must be preserved for the pixel processing and the other 4 must be preserved for vertex processing.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
So I updated some apps on my phone, handcent and flash and my phone was having a lot of FC issues. Handcent was FCing for a lot of things and I couldn't open almost any app. So I figured lets do a quick reboot....chose the reboot option and the phone turned off but never came back on.....pulled the battery and I've left it out but still no go. Even pulled the memory card and SIM card but the phone won't do anything. Won't show charging when I plug it in but my computer does make a noise when it plugs in but the device doesn't show up on the computer anywhere.

Am I toast and do I need to get a new phone or is there something that I can do?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hector8258:
Wow never heard of that happening.. hmm try going to the bootloader... get a new battery maybe... this beats me

mytouch 4g

S-off

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
How do I get to the boot loader from hardware keys? I can't for the life of me find that.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
Never mind, located how to get to the bootloader......doesn't work...the phone won't do anything.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenstuffs:
If you are certain your battery is good and your phone does not respond to anything AKA brick then I think somehow you have ended up with a corrupted bootloader if that is the case you'd need a RIFF box or call HTC. I'm in the same boat as you :( i won't be buying the JTAG cable for that phone only so i'll be sending mine in.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
I highly doubt it's the battery it was fully charged and never had any issues and then I updated these apps, got some FC issue and then the phone wouldn't turn back on after a reset.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _ice_:
is adb recognizing your device? you did mention you heard a noise on your pc. The usb drivers should be kicking then (pray its not the qualcomm modem drivers kicking in lol)

you still have hope if you can get adb up and running.

Also were you on the stock bootloader or eng bootloader?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoren:
1. What was the state of your phone before those app updates? (Rooted? Custom ROM / kernel? Engineering bootloader?)

2. Do you remember specifically which apps you updated? Anyone else who updated the same apps recently, have you noticed anything?

3. Do you have ADB set up on your computer? Have you tried using 'adb devices' to see if your device is recognized?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killbynature:
Happen to me once due a battery pull then reinsert the battery should be able to boot back up. When you do a battery pull wait a few minutes like 5.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
That happened to me everything got messed up except bootloader and even that was freezing so I loaded pd151img.zip and pulled battery when updating bootloader to hide s-off
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
So before updating the apps I was running CM 7.0.2 with Faux123 2.5.2 Gingerbread Kernel. The only 2 apps I remember for sure were Handcent and Flash. I think there may have been one other tho. I don't know how much abd is recognizing the device because I just got this lap top and my other one I used to root it and had abd on won't boot up....just my luck right? I am going into work today and my buddy has it on his laptop so we will see if we can recognize it there.

And as far as just pulling the battery...that isn't working I life it out for 6 hours and it still wouldn't boot up, normally or into download mode.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Well if it wont boot it won't be recognized I don't think.. and I just corrupted the bootloader by pulling the battery so they wouldn't see I had rooted and I wouldn't have to pay the fee (bad karma and all I know) so if you don't have insurance your sol. But on some other thread a Guy had this issue and held both volume keys and power while plugging it in and his comp recognized it as qualcomm cdma device or something like that. That maybe recognizable via adb not sure though..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectral8x:
Well I should be fine under warranty tho since the device won't do anything. I'm going to try to see if I can get the device to show up in adb and if not i guess i'm getting a replacement phone and starting from scratch UGH! Lol.

[Epic 4G General] wj0t:
How will this help us epic users on may 8th? :P
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
The answer is still: We will have to wait and see how the source code from the Nexus is useful, which depends on which hardware elements it shares with our Epics.
[Epic 4G General] wj0t:
Uh, well is someone going to supply an epic dev with what they need?
[Epic 4G General] qbking77:
Yes.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Source code is posted on the internet for everyone.
[Epic 4G General] wj0t:
that should have been my first question, cause that's all i wanted to know, ha.

I kinda figured but I didn't want to assume, thanks for the info!
[Epic 4G General] raymond4:
So will anyone be getting the nexus s
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Nobody smart.
[Epic 4G General] wj0t:
I would probably get one if someone bought one and wanted to trade it for an epic for what ever reason
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Or someone who's happy with they'd phone but hates the bugs. Hardware wise both phones may share the same cpu and gpu but everything else is better in the nexus s. Like the gps chip for one. While I do prefer the epic 4Gs looks the nexus a is a better handset in the end. I'm tired of constantly searching for that "perfect" rom. A pure google experience is the closest thing I can think of.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Don't think the Nexus is without its problems, from what I've read the screen seems to be very susceptible to cracks thanks to the curved shape and there is a bug with the messaging app that sends to thewrong recipient.
[Epic 4G General] richse:
I don't see why you need to be insulting people who want to get a Nexus S 4G. It seems like a good phone for someone who wants to have the latest android releases immediately available to them. My wife is probably getting the Nexus S 4G as an upgrade from her HTC Hero. The main reason is that she loves CM7 on her Hero and I can't guarantee her CM7 (or future CM releases) on any other phone for sprint. You calling her stupid or in your words "nobody smart" is pretty ridiculous on multiple levels, but mostly because her reasons for getting the Nexus are sound.

That bug wasn't Nexus specific, it was common to android. One of the developers at Google made a blog post about it a while ago.
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
Yes, i see your point for CM7 on the Nexus...

Are you guys forgetting the Evo3D is right around the corner?

Along with its HUGE Dev community and CM7 pretty much already guaranteed for it....

Screw the GS2 b/c after overclocking the Evo3D i doubt ill need anymore speed...

Yes the 3D is a gimmick but the specs of the phone is so tempting.

GS2 will be out like 2-3 months after and i don't see them getting updated till next year by sammy because we all know how that goes....
[Epic 4G General] lazydazed:
I think he was referring to anyone who would be paying full price to go from our epics to its fraternal twin... now from a hero to a nexus, BRILLIANT! I would never be able to hang onto a phone that long though..
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
When I get a new phone....hopefully...soon, I'm not real sure what it will be. The Nexus just feels AWESOME in your hand but I'm used to the slide out keyboard. The GSII sounds awesome as well but we saw how the support was on the Samsung side plus TW makes development SO much more difficult.

The Nexus S 4G isn't really a step forward like the GSII or the EVO 3D will be. It would also be hard to leave the SAMOLED screen for Super LCD/TFT. Decisions...Decisions...

Been using a 3 years old Palm Pre and have been amazed at how it just works. The specs of the HP Pre 3 look to be pretty solid. I love how emails works correctly on the Pre. I hate the unreliability of email polling on Android in general.
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
O o plus the Nexus S 4G doesn't have an XDA section.....
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:
Ally

I really love WebOS but when the hell are they going to come out with a newly designed phone model for God's sake? I understand some people still like it but I don't see why they can't have a little variety.
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
wow thats all i can say...

great cool teh evo 3d will have cm7. and when 2.4 comes out the nexus will be rocking that for a good while. and assuming that htc locked the bootloader like they did the thunderbolt then when it comes time for the evo3d to get it.. well it wont, not without an official 2.4 kernel and yes i mean that will include cm8

sorry to break it to ya but the only superlcd versions of the nexus are outside of america, everyone sold inside gets a samoled :D

i know i will have my nexus s 4g day one. ill be working with k0nane and the rest of ACS to see if we cant bring anything good over to there, and vice versa.
[Epic 4G General] bricky23:
Ya, I loved the web os! just wish they had more apps and support!
[Epic 4G General] Darkshneider:
I think he meant the Evo 3D. Hes torn between choosing the SAMOLED Nexus S or the SLCD Evo 3D (which in reality is a qHD screen).
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
The nexus s has a forum on here. Unless you mean the sprint version. Wont they be the same?

Sent From My Evo Killer!
[Epic 4G General] Darkshneider:
Hope not, the Hero had one forum for both GSM and CDMA versions until they split them. Too many new guys flashing GSM ROMs onto their CDMA phones and bricking them.
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
I almost did that w/ my old TP2. GSM ROM on my CDMA phone wasn't good.. LOL.. recovered it but boy was i worried LOL
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
Yep that wouldn't make alot of sense ...

but it is being released in a week and still no sign of a forum for it.....
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
-_- Everytime i make a decision between the Evo3D and the nexus S someone provides and arguement that makes me want to get the other. Such a hard decision :(
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
ive requested a nexus s 4g forum and gotten no reply except that it will be put on their to do list.. yet amazingly the sidekick 4g now has a forum...
[Epic 4G General] Darkshneider:
Sidekick 4 has gotten man handled and released. The Nexus S 4G has not.
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
I was referring to the EVO
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
yea figured that out afterwards, as there is nexus models that do have superlcd thought you were implying the sprint version got it
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
I meant going from a SAMOLED screen of a Galaxy S to the EVO 3D. I don't believe the EVO 3D is sporting SAMOLED. Maybe I'm wrong.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Super LCD on the evo3d.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i'd trade my epic for a nexus straight up... my ONLY concern is about the screen sensitivity around the edges... i seem to remember there being an issue with that.

edit: actually i forgot about my car dock.. that might sway me to keep the epic if there's no samsung dock for the nexus
[HTC Inspire 4G] kev012in:
Hey everyone, I'm having a issue with the overclocking on my inspire. I searched but couldn't find anything relevant to our phones. When I wake my phone up it lags pretty bad for a few minutes and never really seems snappy. Even when it says I'm running at 1.2, 1.4.... its painfully slow. I'm currently running Ingersoll 2.4 with his JV kernel. This happened on Ar 3.5 as well. I did a full wipe before switching rom's and even un-rooted and re-rooted for good measure. I think it has to do with the speed the phone runs at while sleeping but I even tried to set it at 600 mhz while sleeping and still got the same lag. If I return to stock speeds and delete the overclocking app then it runs smooth. Help?

Edit: I've tried Setcpu and overclock widget with the same result from both.
[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
You didn't say if you've tried different CPU governors, but have you tried different ones? (ondemand, interactive, etc.)
[HTC Inspire 4G] kev012in:
Yeah forgot to mention I did that as well. All with the same result, I'm starting to think maybe I got a bad CPU which just doesn't like to overclock at all. But it even lags if I only push it to 1050 mhz.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Mustang302LX:
I can tell you when my phone is at screen off it's maxed at 368Mhz and I have it OC to 1.2Ghz when phone is in use and when I wake it up it is very responsive and runs great.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kev012in:
I wish mine was the same. the worst is when I'm trying to press the screen it won't react. then 3-4 seconds later it will decide to open the app and take forever doing it. Lame.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Mustang302LX:
Before thinking the worst why not try to RUU to stock then reroot and see if that clears the issue? Worth a shot and if still bad go to AT&T and say the battery is shot or something and they will probably replace the phone for you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kev012in:
lol I already returned to stock and rooted again for good measure. same result, but I believe your right, I need to think up a good excuse to get a replacement as I'm sure "it won't overclock" isn't good enough lol.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuckerson:
What ROM's are you using and what do you think has the best battery life? I love my DHD but my biggest pain with it is it's battery life, I would love to get around 15 hours of moderate-heavy use out of it, but right now I only get between 8-10 hours of it, I've tried LeeDroid, Revolution and CyanogenMod. Which custom rom do you think is best for battery life?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majik8ball:
in my humble opinion i would say CM7... thats after a fresh flash, battery calibration, and one full charge till total discharge (sometimes i like to do it two times just to make sure the bat stats get proper readings)... Maybe its just me but i usuall get around 15-18 hours depending... I would say that i am a medium to heavy user...mainly surf the web, movies, mp3s, text, light emails and of course downloading new roms and themes to flash...

Other than cm7 i find that RCMix and revolution to be pretty decent on battery life

U can always use currency widget to determin power loss and check whats soaking up your power

I'm no expert but so far this has worked for me
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suchevent:
i've flashed a few roms over the last few weeks and i must say that they are all pretty decent in terms of battery life. i haven't really noticed one being significantly better than the next.

i can easily kill my phone within 7-8 hours with heavy usage but i can also keep my phone going for about 30 hours with light usage and about 16 hours with moderate usage, using the same rom.

if you asked me, i think it just depends on your style of usage. perhaps this isn't the answer you're looking for but i really don't think there's one rom out there that is going to give you that edge.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aradhyat:
If you are looking for battery, use MIUI Freshly squeezed versions...CM7 was my first ROM, I loved it but battery life was terrible.. I could hardly squeeze out 12-13 hours even on low usage..MIUI is great! I easily get 15-20 hrs plus battery on moderate usage(wifi connected most of the time, abt 30 min gaming etc)..I bet if u try u'll see the difference..;)...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuckerson:
thanks for the replies, I think you're right with how you use it. Going to try MIUI now as well
