When I messed up my flash and my phone was stuck at the dual-core logo, I followed the steps below.

Pull your battery.

When you put it back in, hold down the power and volume down to access fastboot mode.

From there you can do a one-click restore method.

That is how I solved my problem. I hope it helps you.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] neckbonest:
have you triedf pulling the battery and putting it back in. the hold volume key down and power at the same time? if that works then just restore using fxz. if it does not work your phone is bricked
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nickbeisher:
Brick!!

This is my third droid, I had The D1, the X, and now the bionic. By far I like this one much better than the the others. I have rooted all of them, and done the basic app freezing, overclocking, and other basic mods. This is my first go round with the custom rom flashing. I Flashed R3blurr3d, and every new update ( each update a new flash ). I also flashed D3blurr3d, and Liberty, just to check them out. I personally like Reblurr3d. When I flashed I always followed every direction to the letter, and if I was unclear on something rather than ask a stupid question, or ask something that had already been covered. I read and search until I find the answer I need and it is clear to me, sometimes that means searching for hours on end. I do this for the fear of ending up with a "Brick".

Now with everything I have read about any of these phones to "Brick" It is an error on the user's end while flashing or something of that sort, ( not following directions ).

So with everything operating butter smooth, and flashing dozens of times before this. What would cause a "Brick" during everyday use?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tivo7:
My guess is....he didn't know what he was doing. You rooted it for him and left it rooted for a user that knows nothing about root access. He probably did something using root access to fck something up.

When someone asks you to root their phone for them, the answer is always no.

Unless they know what they're doing, never give someone root access.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] hdtechk:
my first bionic did same thing. it was not rooted yet. just started rebooting it self. got more frequint then just quit the way you talked about. hardware problem.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] nickbeisher:
Yes. That is what it is. It is a hardware issue, after talking to tech support it is a capacitor or something like along those lines, it stores battery power for times when more power is needed, like turning on the phone for instance. And when it randomly boots it is because it runs short on power due to the faulty hardware.

But apparently it is a known issue with Verizon, so if it happens to anyone else they should not have any trouble getting a new phone. I talked to a very nice tech support agent, and I will have a new phone by noon on Saturday.

And also I didn't have anyone root my phone, I do all of it on myself, Im no computer genius, but like I said I take my time and follow directions. And until now I have had no issues, and this had nothing to do with root access, flashing custom rims, or any other tweaking just a bad part Anthe phone. The thread was started by someone else. When I searched the threads, I found this and it was the same exact problem as I had, so that's why I asked what the end result was.

So with all that being said maybe this will be informative to someone else.

Well everytime i reboot my phone the root goes away an i csnt use any apps this happens on froyo an gb i also odined then re flashed rom an same result

unroot if your phone is not already rooted and try rooting again with superoneclick.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timtamboy63:
Hey guys,

Just followed the instructions for rooting and flashing my phone (can't post link yet) , ran into a few issues.

I've just noticed that both my camera and wifi aren't working, did anyone else experience this?

Also, when trying to install Gingerman, it didn't seem to do anything. The screen came up, I clicked flash zip from sdcard, and it said it finished (in about 3 seconds). When it rebooted, I didn't see anything except the startup screen change.

I have a Huawei U8150, there's no specific subforum for it

Cheers!

[HTC EVO 3D] thebeast614:
Hey guys I got a quick question...

I just got my 3D today coming from the Evo and got it rooted and everything no problem...do I flash miui and restore a backup from the miui I was running on my Evo and almost every thing seems to work without problems except a select few like bejeweled and stardunk...so I just completely deleted the data, uninstalled and reinstalled but nothing...they just hang at the initial bootscreen then close...anyone have any idea what's going on..

Any insight would be much appreciated

Sent from my MIUI'd 3VO (Finally switched)
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Hard to say exactly what is causing them to hang and close. If these apps are free, have you tried installing the latest version from the Android Market?

When you said, deleted the data, I'm not sure if you're referring to the application specific data or the data partition. A few important areas to erase in troubleshooting the specific applications:

1) Erase the application's data directory under /data/data/<package name>.

2) Erase the /data/dalvik-cache directory.

3) Erase the /cache partition (on most ROMs this wont have an impact, but some move dalvik-cache to this partition instead of the default /data partition)

If those three methods don't work, in addition to uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version of the application, the next best step I'm aware of would be to look at the logcat to see the output the applications give when they close.

There is an application the market, aLogCat which makes it easy to obtain a logcat. If you could open the app, let it crash/close and then grab the logcat, it should contain the information necessary to start troubleshooting. If you wanted to post the information back up here, we could take a look and try to help!

Hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] thebeast614:
Hey thanks I tried what you had said but no go...but here is the logcat with the error output

[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Based on the small portion of the error messages you posted, essentially two, those are cryptic. Unfortunately, those aren't very general terms or error codes. You'll have to revert to the developer for an explanation.

Perhaps some else on here is familar with that application and can provide more insight but as for general application errors go, I haven't seen those before.

Hope that helps point in the right direction!
[HTC EVO 3D] thebeast614:
Actually that's just a game called bouncy mouse...so far i've had it happen with bejeweled 2, stardunk, and I think world series of poker...Idk what is going on but I don't have this problem

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VidXp:
Level 1

6:54 PM

- Summary: N1, 2.3.6, when not in use shut down with no apparent reason. when turned on showed the "Welcome To Nexus One" initialization screen.

- Background Details:

A 2/2010 (unlocked, used on T-Mobile) N1, that was updated regularly, and worked on 2 wireless networks. about 3 weeks ago was updated OTA from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6.

Was experiencing lately (after last upgrade) occasional drops of WiFi connection. Also experienced faster battery drainage, including (rarely) a fast going to OFF, even without time to orderly shut off.

- Detailed Description:

Today it was on, fully charged, received a call and it worked fine. Saw about an hour later it went off. I thought this is due to the fast battery drainage I experienced lately.... I connected it to a charger - but saw battery almost full. Seems it has got through a hard reset - or rest to factory settings. It shows the "Welcome to nexus one" screen (touch the android to begin).

(At this point I've tried no further yet - waiting for your responses)

** It may be that the power to my wirless router was disconnected several times at the time of the Nexus One crash. I use secure connection to my WiFi, but also have cellular data connection.

** Additional info: Has 3 google accounts on this phone.

** The backup / restore option was ON sometime in the past, and almost sure it was lately OFF.

- At this point I've tried the following - none helped:

- recharging the battery to Full and restart

- change SIM to another operator (worked in the last 2 weeks, after the 2.3.6 update, on both networks, both in roaming and home networks)

- The device has the stock ROM, bought unlocked directly from Google, usually operated on T-Mobile USA, and was never rooted.

Cannot see the device version from settings(since cannot see the settings screen), but see the following when in the HBOOT screen:

HBOOT-0.35.0017

MICROP-0b15

RADIO-5.08.00.04

Oct 12 2010

- My questions:

1. Is there a way to restore my user settings?

2. Can I try the RECOVERY option to retrieve an older OS version, and would it retain my user data?

3. What is the procedure to recover the latest google stored data for my account?

4. Is this a known problem?

Thank you

[Acer Iconia A500] nrnx:
I am currently in the process of developing a game-centric honeylinux hybrid. I have currently managed to get several linux-native operations working on android, including a dedicated game server. My question is this, is it worth my effort to continue this project now or should I wait for ICS and spend my efforts there? I would then release my recooked native honeycomb/linux mod as a non updated effort. Here is what I have done so far:

Installed full bash#

Installed manual tweaks to the ntegra api thru linux

Have a custom desktop screen based off suse, no more scrolling side screens.(option at boot which gui you would like to use)

Stable hybrid honeyvillan 3.4+ w/suse memory integration controller 17% faster ddr3 (you can set ram voltage but with cpu so high you really shouldnt try to get more than 20%)

Every game app avaliable that supports a500+ all ntegra games pre-installed

OC voltage @ 1.5 per core effective 3.0 ghz

Scripts I have toyed with:

Eggdrop successfully running

Ircd server runs

Irc runs

Wine is a work in progress, slowly getting it day by day, remote desktop works.

Several old game servers work

All android apps run, and more effeciently.

My development path was going to take me through emulating graphical apis that the ntegra could handle allowing all linux native games to be playable through a gl wrapper.

So what do you guys think? Pause development and release source for current project? Or do i wait till ICS is out to release a fully functional stable version? Keep in mind that I am working on this project soley because it amuses me and with the hardware is possible. If waiting for ICS and tegra 3 would be a better solution I dont know

[Acer Iconia A500] GamezR2EZ:
You cant run x86 on an arm processor. Wine Is Not an Emulator. Just so you don't waste your time.

Id say make a git repo so we can check it out, yes.
[Acer Iconia A500] nrnx:
I thought wine allowed you to run a partitioned windows, meaning if i partitioned an arm windows installation (have access to several builds) it should work should it not? Also rumor is the ics 4.0 sdk will be in our (developer) hands by as early as next weekend. I want to make sure things will be completely compatible via a single flash if I am to release the current build, and understand theree will be no support, unless I come out with an update before ICS. I can make a one click app to install it or custom bootable image depending on what is needed but it may take me a few days to get the logistics down on doing that, and understand as a gamer intended rom, the rom comes preloaded with nearly 6gb of data. I can have the data for apks removed but rom size will still be nearly 1gb, so be prepared for a large rom. I will update this thread as more opinions are posted, will work on a full revision list and screenshots, and getting the files on my private server. I am currently waiting for a custom boot image, once I have th at everything sh ould be good to go.

Please note the opensuse implementations work, but be aware of limitations while running in the desktop mode. These include the ability to not be able touse some widgets that were designed specifically for android, you can switch back to the normal android screens tru a reboot of the device.

I will also make availiable the kernal source so for those of you interested in furthering the project you can.

Edit info on my background: linux developer for 8 years for an undisclosed company. Helped develop linux compatible drivers, learning andriod in the hopes of creating a hybrid open source alternative suited more towards pure gamers, and business apps.

[Acer Iconia A500] GamezR2EZ:
As wine goes, yes what you are saying is correct. But that doesn't mean the programs compiled for the x86 processor will work. Being that is, all apps currently available will not work. Any ARM app compiled for Windows 8 could work. Im sure it will moving forward. But that means no current windows games will run.

Added some thanks for that. I was imagining windows 8 to have some work around, but t heir games will have to be built from the ground p.

I do have an idea to download an odin already rooted 2.3.5 rom other than TMO Galaxy S II stock excluding the kernel and modem to keep the original kernel and radio in the TMO Galaxy S II. The idea is to use this procedure to pull the kernel and modem out of the Galaxy S II. Most important is to make sure that the phone can boot after odin download of other than original TMO galaxy rom.

I have been dying to get this phone for weeks, but every review I see posted has bad news about the battery. I'd really love to hear some real world numbers to see if this phone could work for me. I really need to get through 'til late evening, and I need to be able to make 1.5-2 hrs of voice calls per day. Am I dreaming?

What is your experience?

Thanks for responding - I really appreciate your input!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Turboboxer:
My first real day with my Amaze

Woke up at 6 am EST. Went to the in-laws and usewd my phone to check traffic to ATL Hartsfield. Checked a few more times while texting and checking a few notifications. Get on plane. Airplane mode. Play some angry birds and teeter. try to figure out what all these widget things are all about since I am new to Android. Get to Chicago. Walk about 4 miles through the city snapin pics (see amazing photos thread) Stopped and ate at a resturant. More facebook, text email. Back to where we are staying and it just turned yellow. Not too bad if you ask me considering it was only yellow and I have juice defender for 25% or lower. I could have gone couple hours longer normal use.
[HTC Amaze 4G] maybeI'm:

[HTC Amaze 4G] Enzopreme:
very simply put, this phone is great... buy it. I had the sensation and i truly think its better on ALL aspects, including battery life, unless you NEED, absolutely cant live without wifi calling, i'd say its a great investment.

[HTC Amaze 4G] nodrogkam:
Simply put, from 100 - 0% battery...I haven't hit 7 hours yet (4.5-6.8 hours). That's on moderate-heavy use.

I've now gone through three cycles and will begin to use the device "normally" this coming week. Let's just say I'll be hanging onto my blackberry bold 9780 for travels or times when I know i wont be near a charger for a day. This is one of those - plug in at the office - kind of phones. haha.

Turning off 4g would help, as well as GPS.

I expect once I go back to my Android ways (I've been spoiled by BlackBerry battery life) I can push past 12 hours on this phone.

Hour and a half plane ride.... Got back close to 4 probably.
[HTC Amaze 4G] flexte:
no major testing but i charged both of my devices to 100% Evo and Amaze. took them off the charger at 1am didn't touch them until 7 am and the Evo went down to 75% and the Amaze 73%. the Evo is rooted ad the Amaze is of course stock.

I have 3 gmail accounts on automatic sync as well as an exchange account set to push delivery. also a news and Facebook widget set to sync every hour.
[HTC Amaze 4G] 2ndHalfCor:
Yesterday I watched my battery life carefully. I went 8+40 before the first battery warning at 29%. It went an hour and 10 minutes more to yellow at 19%. Then finally turned red after a total of 13+10. I would characterize my usage as light. I listened to an .mp3 while getting ready, did a little messaging. got maybe 20 emails during the day. Had a few short phone calls. Responded to an email from work. Downloaded and installed an app from thre Market. Watched a few short Youtube videos, etc. I have four email accounts, three of which push to the phone. Since I might need to respond to an emergency from the office, I can't see normally letting my phone go below 30%, so that means I have about 8 and a half hours of light use. I was really hoping for more.

As soon as we get root we will have wifi calling. That's if we don't get an OTA with that sooner.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Lazerus625:
For those of you having terrible battery life I suggest going to the market and downloading juice defender and juice plotter. I took my phone off the charger today around 6:15 am and it’s now 1:05am and I still have 26% battery remaining. That is with moderate use and a short 15 minute charge through a computer usb. I took about 8 calls averaging 5 minutes a call, one was 7, watched two YouTube videos, sent 11 text messages, played a game for about 5 minutes wasting time, checked a couple of my posts on xda 3 or 4 times, as well as using the weather app frequently (I’m in Florida and we've been getting hammered with rain!) O... and most of the things that required connectivity my phone was connected to Wi-Fi. With the correct profiles and settings enabled it should increase battery life considerably, and if you have root, even more so!! Been using it with my old g2 and myt4g, and now Amaze!!

sory for my poor english

i root my archos 101IT, 2.4.19+R/W chulri method, everythings is ok, except that i realized a slowdown in internal storage transfer rate.

i didnt remove android kernel to make some tests and to compare when i boot from android and from developer (root)

example

when i boot from android (not root) i took 20seg to load angry birds

when i boot from developer (root) i took 60seg to load angry birds

i did alots benchmarks, not problem with mem, cpu, 2d or 3d

but when bench the internal storage i got 4MB/s in read

when i boot from android (not root) i got 10MB/s
