okay i have googled it i flashed a rom with a different kernel and tryed to restore back and now i cant get into anything i have read that you can use adb but i dont know how and it seems like you have to have a working phone to do it and i was wondering if there was another way.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
what happened ??

is it working at all, does it show anything or bootloop when you turn it on or does it show anything when its charging

if it doesnt do anything at all when trying to turn it on or charging then it might be hard bricked
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aasaas:
when i turn it on it goes to the rom boot screen and doesnt go past that and when i plug it into the computer it shows its looking for the battery status but nothing ever comes up. If it is hard bricked is there anyway to come back?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Buy a JIG. That will kick the phone into download mode. The phone isn't hard bricked if it still gets life. Jtag will fix hard bricks that get no life at all. Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
it isnt hard bricked :) if it was it wouldnt show any life at all, screen would just be black constantly when trying to turn it on or when you plug charge in but yours comes on so your fine :)

theres 2 ways...

1st

open odin

take battery out of the phone

plug usb into phone and hold volume up and down

push battery in and should put you in download

or

open odin

hold volume up and down and plug usb into phone

mine only works second way but most people use the first but try both :)

if it still doenst work do what kawika said and buy a jig but keep trying with the usb for a while plugging and unplugging in difffernet usb ports, took me 2 hours once to get it to connect to odin once by just plugging and unplugging in different ports

I had pre-ordered a EVO 3d gsm from negri electronics and just got it in today. Over all great experience with this company. Phone was brand new in sealed package. Unlocked and working on all ATT bands. Very pleased with them. Now its on to rooting.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mnemoch:
You are getting 3g? Website states 900/2100 HSPA which won't work anywhere in the States. I mean you will get Edge/Gprs but not 3g...
[HTC EVO 3D] jayv81:
Yes I am getting 3g. It is the Rogers version with 850/1900 bands.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayv81:
I went to their website and seen what you were talking about. And you were correct that one will not get 3g as it has 900/2100 bands.

If you go to the EVO 3d gsm unlocked one it has the correct bands. But is actually on back order. When I got mine they had only received 2 units in. http://negrielectronics.com/htc-evo-3d-gsm-unlocked.html
[HTC EVO 3D] Mnemoch:
Cool, good to know. Did yours say Rogers then? Or does it have the plain gold back? Or actually a red back like the picture (I prefer the red!)...
[HTC EVO 3D] jayv81:
yes mine does say rogers on the back with the gold ring around the camera. and before i rooted and put a custom rom it boot animation and down animation were both rogers.

Edit: The only thing I did to get my data going was put the apn info for ATT.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncaissie:
Have you moved everything you can to the SD card? If you fill the internal memory it gets slow. Buy apps2SD it saves you the time to check each app and it notifies you is an app can be moved or you can set it to move automatically.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Your both slightly wrong, It's not higher capacity cards that have lower random access latencies but Higher class cards, So although a class 10 card has a much higher r/w speed, a class 2/4/6 card is much better for playing games and emulators :p

Be careful about updating, if you are rooted i am not sure what will and what wont brick your phone if you update via PC companion.

Have a read of some other threads or make a new post so an expert here can tell you.

Don't update via PC if your bootloader is unlocked. It will (semi)brick your phone.

Use the OTA method if you can. If not then relock the bootloader and then update.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
download and install Android SDK,

in the phone just go into settings --> applications --> development --> usb debugging

and use ADB to connect and execute commands

done
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROB281:
that's it? damn I thought I had to configure something else been using this guide, and it threw me for a loop on the usb access part

http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
The "Configuring USB Access" part is for using adb with regular user account on Ubuntu . Because normally you need to have root permission to access a USB device e.g. you have to type sudo adb devices instead of only adb devices

To follow the guide, use the following command:

cd /etc/udev/rules.d
sudo nano 51-android.rules

Then copy/paste the lines in the guide into the file and change <username> to your account name, in my case it would be something like: (notice the OWNER= part)

# adb protocol on crespo (Nexus S)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e22", MODE="0600", OWNER="suksit"
# fastboot protocol on crespo (Nexus S)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e20", MODE="0600", OWNER="suksit"

Then save the file and plug in your Nexus S. If you can use the command adb devices then you're good to go.

[HTC EVO 3D] jayv81:
Is there a way to transfer all my apps from my inspire to EVO 3d. The only ones that show up in my market app list are the ones purchased.
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
personally, most my apps i pull down thru the market so i don't usually copy/move around the apk files manually.

on internal memory, apps have two main directories where they are stored, /data/app and /system/app. some apps are stored on the sdcard by android. but moving the sdcard *should* move the apps, but i haven't tried so can't guarantee that.

if it were me, i would copy the apk files over to the new device. either by adb pull onto a computer or thru phsyically moving the sdcard.

i'm sure there are tools in the market, like titantium backup which might work but i haven't used any of those.

hope that helps!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idsam:
Why my storage space keep disappearing even without installing any new app ?

I'm sure that the question has been asked many times, without any solid answer or solution.

I finally find out the reason, and would like to share to everyone in xda.

NOTE :

1. The followings only apply to HTC owners using HTC mail client in a regular basis.

2. The followings apply to other HTC models (post here simply because my HTC is Desire).

3. The scripts provided below only works on ROOTED phones.

MY SETTINGS :

Using 4 POP3 accounts, check mail every 15 mins, mail size limit to 25 KB, keep 30 days, and store attachment in SD-Card. On average, I only receive a total of 30 email per day.

SYMPTOMS :

In one month, approximately 22 MB of internal storage will be gone. The space occupied may vary due to your settings and how many email you receive daily. I've seen someone in other forum, doing tests and keep losing 10 MB each day.

So, what's wrong? In short, HTC mail keeps creating lots of temp files without deleting them at all.

But the tricky part is, almost all of these temp files are having zero filesize! Every single file (even if filesize is zero) occupies at least 1 block size. That is, 4 KB in most cases. In one month, about 5800 files are created, 22+ MB is occupied. But if you try to check the total filesize within the temp folder, it may still return zero. And you will be unable to check total filesize using any file browser app, because it takes too long to process and the system will popup a suggestion to end the task.

WORKAROUND :

How to solve the problem ? A silly way is using the "Clear data" button in the built-in application manager. But it will also delete all your email accounts, so you'll have to create them manually.

Smarter way, I've wrote 2 script files (may take a while to run for the first time) :

htc_mail_tempfile_check.sh - it helps you to calculate how many temp files (created by HTC mail) in your internal storage, and tells you approximately how much space being occupied. This script simply provide information, and do nothing else. So you can use this one to check if you are having the same problem.

htc_mail_tempfile_cleanup.sh - this script shows you the internal free space, then delete all those temp files, and shows the free space after deletion.

After using the cleanup script, all email accounts / settings / messages / attachments are preserved. Basically nothing changes except that you get back the storage space.

If you want to automate the process, find "Script Manager" (free but ads) from Android Market and create a schedule task to run the cleanup script once a day. Don't forget to allow the script to run as root.

Please post your result if it helps. Let the others know if it works. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lokinmodar:
Hi All!

I'm using the Slade87 ROM MiniCM6 final and was having trouble with the corrupted widget issue, caused by moving apps to SD using the android 2.2 feature.

The workaround i'm using is:

- Do not use the android move to sdcard feature.

- i use the app Link2sd from the market, putting the apps in the 2nd partition of the sdcard.

I know that someone must already have found this same solution but i could not find anything so i'm posting it here.

This solution is handy for the owners of the x10 mini pro because we have very little space in our phones....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] XxLordxX:
Sorry, but Android don't recognize widgets from sd card...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] lokinmodar:
Thats why the solution above works.

The apps are in sd card although they were not moved by android's default move to SD feature.

This is mainly to save some space on the phone since there is little space on x10 mini pro for apps.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuqcabeza:
Go easy. I did a search and didn't come up with much, especially for the NC. I have done this many times with different builds of Cyanogen and Gapps. I am having many issues but I think if I could get this one figured out everything would work.

When I apply CM7 and Gapps and reboot I get to "Welcome to Nook Color" screen but when I click on the green android to set up nothing happens. I get the "process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly." I can click on the change language button, so the touchscreen is working. I have used different mSD cards and reformatted many times. I should add that if I don't install Gapps I do get into the Android but I still get the same error coming up.

I have used stable, nightly and RC builds. Now I feel I have done it so many times I have too much "junk" in the "system." I do clear data, system, cache and Dalvik each time.

I have even tried to go back to stock to no avail. I keep getting the "Nook Color Dev" startup screen.

Is there a way to erase the whole drive and start from scratch? Is this wise?

Well... I finally figured it out. Totally my fault that I didn't realize what was going on until I was restoring my phone (EVO) and saw the item...

I had "Stay Awake (Screen will never sleep while charging)" enabled in the settings. It never occurred to me, because the dock is charging the tablet, it is always in "charging mode", thus it wouldn't go to sleep because of that.

Once I un-checked that, it went to sleep perfectly fine... although I still feel the battery on the dock drains a little faster than it should, it's def better (and not nearly as fast as the drain issue people were having).
