[Motorola Droid Bionic] Feoen:
Hello everyone. I have had my Droid Bionic since day one and I have never had an issue with it. It has been wonderful.

Until today. I am on the stock OS. I had a Live Wallpaper that showed a little Android figure that melts based on the percentage of my battery. I went into my Gallery and clicked on "Set As Wallpaper" on an image I took with my camera on the phone.

At the bottom of the phone, a small popup showed up that said "COMPLETED". When I went to the home screen, there was no wallpaper in the background. It was just black, though the icons were still there and it was responsive. I thought maybe the image was corrupt, so I went and tried another image.

This caused the phone to reboot. When it rebooted, there was a notification bar, the time, the lock screen, and a thing that said No Signal. I tried to unlock it, but the phone was unresponsive.

Then I got a text message, even though I had no signal. The notification light was blinking. I could not unlock the phone. I hit the sleep button, and it went to sleep. I tried hitting it again, and it would not wake up.

I tried pulling the battery and putting it back in, and now it won't properly boot. Right when it boots, it goes to sleep (the little shutdown animation). I texted myself from my sister's phone and the notification light blinks, the phone vibrates, and the screen turns on and shows I have a text on the notification bar. The screen and the buttons are completely unresponsive, however.

I tried calling myself from my home line and I could pick up the call just fine and end the call. I could not, however, go back to the home screen while on the call. The capacitive buttons on the bottom were completely unresponsive. When I hung up the call (by touch), it went to a completely black screen with the notification bar showing that I had some text messages and the time and my service, etc.

I have rebooted the phone five times now by removing the battery and it keeps going to this. I have never rooted the phone (I wouldn't even know how to) and I am concerned because of all of the information that I have saved on the phone.

Yes I have tried removing the SD card. Didn't help.

Any suggestions? :/

UPDATE: Now the phone doesn't even boot, it gets stuck at the Red Eye spinning logo. It vibrates twice and the notification light begins blinking, meaning it is letting me know that I have received text messages... but it isn't actually booting to the Android home screen. Really strange...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Sjflowerhorn:
You should fxz back to stock

It will wipe your application data but not you're sdcard info or internal storage
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ratledge:
Hard reset using all three external buttons

Try doing a hard reset - it's one of those things they only tell you about at the Verizon store when you're stuck:

Once you have the phone on and at least responsive, press and hold BOTH volume keys, then hold the power button down for 10 seconds (it's really about 6, but 10 will do it for sure). This procedure can also be done to force a reboot when you load a gnarly application that sux and locks your phone up - without having to disassemble everything and pull the battery.

Hopefully with any luck, you're phone will do a back-flip and come up!

[Nexus S General] Braneless:
Isn't this info already available in xxx threads and stickies? Nice try though.

And wtf is this in the DEVELOPMENT forum?
[Nexus S General] Windst:
OP, ignore the haters. They have nothing else to do but pretend they are pro with a Nexus s

Even though most ppl figure out cwm, Its ddifferent per phone. The x10 used xrecovery, so when I switched phones I was like. . . What is cwm.

When I messed with the Droid 2 and d2global, cwm worked in a whole differant way that could brick phones.

So I think its useful for phones to have there own cement thread, as it WILL help someone who's having a tough time .

If someone's gotta be an arse about a polite attempt to help fellow xda members, get a life and go flame a fanboy thread instead.

Good job op

Also are you rooted? What version market are you on now?

Try this version if you're not already on it.

Last thing to do is wipe data and start clean.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oppiee:
Tried, no cigar. That is the version that is giving me grief. Very odd. it FC and gives me the process com.android.vending stopped working.

Maybe the only thing left is to do a full factory reset. Very stupid.

No mine is not rooted. Thanks for the help :D

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] st0nec01d:
I'm having the same problem now. Clearing data on market and android framework followed by restarting the tablet fixed the issue temporarily only for it to happen again after a short while.

Also noticed other performance related issues, force closes, lock ups, etc. Also resulting in the same error message as the market app issue - process com.android.vending has stopped working.

Only had these issues since the most recent update from Asus.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sweeny Russ:
I'm having the same issue, I go into the market, everything is good till I try and go to my installed apps. Then f/c everytime. Very annoying. I do not have documents to go. Will have to try and hard reset it when I get home tonight. Son of a *****.

Thanks for the heads up, hard resetting didn't do a damn thing. Same errors. Google Music launch equals market crash? Maybe?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sweeny Russ:
All right guys I need some input here....

I cleared market cash and data, reverted to older market, removed sd card, remounted sd card, rooted and installed prime then revolver, tried installing the newest market apk to no avail. Called google to see what was going on with my account, they said it was fine and it was the hardware. I put my fiance's account info on my tablet and it downloads famously. Factory restored and put my account back on and I get "download unsuccessful, please try again" every time on updates and app downloads.

Using my account I can go to market.android.com on a pc and push the application/update to my device and it works fine. This is a pain in the ass to do all of the time though. Can anyone help before I start using this thing for a coaster?

P.S. The market on my thunderbolt and HD 2 work fine.

**UPDATE**I just left it alone for a couple hours out of frustration and it works fine now. Must have been on google's side with the big market makeover.

[HD2 General] johnerz:
Sound like you got a bad flash, down load the rom and reinstall it
[HD2 General] meingutter:
Try restarting the phone holding volume down + power. Then when in bootloader, reinstall stock rom.

Finally, reinstall the rom you wanted.
[HD2 General] zaaaan:
i tried this but ...it installs complete rom but still getting same problem..even it installs the magldr..but stucks at that at that screen only...is it a harware problem.?
[HD2 General] meingutter:
I don't think it's an hardware problem.

Can you try a task29 before flashing the Rom?
[HD2 General] zaaaan:
actually I have heard that middle battery pin creats problem. ...btw I have tried task 29 too,but no luck.:(
[HD2 General] azer0:
Well, this happened to me once. For some reason stock roms don't play well when you come from android install. What you have to do is, get a custom wm6.5 rom from development forum (nrg roms seem to work well for me) and then install it. It should boot fine, install stock HTC rom now if you like.

Hope this helps

How is flashing done? I'm looking all over the place to fix a boot error and everyone says flash stock rom, but i don't know how to do that. Can anyone help?

I have a tmous hd2 and I've tried

Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
[HD2 General] zaaaan:
i think ..you are not using correct rom for your phone.download 3.14 stock roms ..hope that would work.installing stock rom is nothing..but just connect your device in bootloader mode and run the exe rom file you have downloaded.thats it!
[HD2 General] zaaaan:
is there any one who can solve my problem..plese.
[HD2 General] huggs:
Try installing the stock rom specific to your phone (the correct region, TMOUS,Euro,etc)

by using the sd card method.

1. Download the rom

2. Rename the ruu.exe file's extention to .zip

3. Extract the file with the extention .nbh

4. Rename that file to LEOIMG.nbh and place it at the root of a 4Gb or smaller sd card

5. Put the card in your HD2 and boot into bootloader by holding the Volume-down button while booting up

6. Follow any on-screen prompts to flash the rom.

7. Reboot when finished

Hopefully by flashing this way, your problem with hanging at the splash screen will be solved.

You will have to re-install HSPL though, flashing from sd card removes it.
[HD2 General] zaaaan:
i tried stock rom europe for my hd2 but still same problem.it installs rom correctly..but hangs at boot..no system information..

Maybe the screen protectors play a role in it, since mine covers my sensor.

I noticed that my wife's screen looks completely different, mine seams sortof doll, or hazed over, due to the screen protector, while her's is very crisp/clear/bright. We are using different screen protectors...

I'm using the moshi one, which seams a little hazey, almost like putting a filter over the screen, while she has the one that came with her Inspire...very transparent/clear...idk...

Mine also keeps light from hitting the sensor at greater angles...

just a thought...

Anyone seeing this without a screen protector?

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pileot:
I know its a loaded question, but im interested in finding the best combination of kernel / rom for my phone.

Best is different for everyone, these are some of the features i prefer:

ability to overclock

lagfix

latest version of android possible

stability

active development

BLN enabled

Tweaked / enhanced apps

removed bloatware

i will add more if i think of them.

Every opinion is valid, each is entitled to their own. If you had good or bad experiences with different kernel / rom combinations, let me know!

I went from superclean to pwgb to tsm then back to pwgb.. I found its best suits me.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
everybody's opinion is going to be different...you just have to try them for yourself and decide whats best. PWGB is a great rom and is easy to install. I would start there and then maybe try a mtd based rom(cm7,vgb,poolparty,miui,etc...) later and see what you like best.

The cap affects hot spots.

It doesn't it doesn't have anything to do with rooted tethering as that just shares the internet on the phone, which is unlimited.

Would wireless tethering be the same as a hotspot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dericb11:
I get what he is saying. Android has tethering built in at a OS level. Its always there but Sprint blocks it and adds their own stuff which is monitored. Since root tether makes use of the phones data Sprint can't limit Hotspot since you aren't using it.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] luvmnky2:
Hi there..

First post in the Flyer section. I think I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway.

I'm not a noob to Android or to flashing ROMs, but this is the first I've tried on the flyer. Tried flashing the HC leak, but I think I screwed myself. I unlocked using Revolutionary, but the guide posted in this forum didn't mention anything about whether to go ahead and download ClockWorkMod at the end of that S-OFF procedure, so I selected no. Now I can't connect to my tab with adb, after flashing the Honeycomb radio and the boot image. Basically I got to step 12.

So now the revolutionary bootloader will come up, but I don't seem to be able to do much else (obviously the OS won't boot at this point). Am I screwed?

Thanks in advance.
