can anyone help me with unpack the ICS ramdisk?

I have ubuntu 11.10 but cant unpack it with this line: gunzip -c ../ramdisk.img | cpio -i
[Xperia Play Android Development] XperiaPlayer:
You can use a tool called: Android Easy Kitchen (its a sticky in the chef central). Drop in the boot.img, extract it and you get the ramdisk.

Could we use the ramdisk located found in the CM9 kernel located in the Xperia Arc section as a base?
[Xperia Play Android Development] nickholtus:
you mean uot kitchen???

i have that installed already but when i unpack a boot.img the ramdisk isnt unpacked (still.img):confused:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kage00:
Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me, is there any way to apply the low battery hack we all know and love for the camera app to other apps?

I was using the voice recorder and it stopped working when my battery went low and it was really annoying because I still had 15% battery left, which is still quite a lot.

I'm not sure what other apps do this too, but it would be great to have this low battery hack working on the voice recorder too... please

Thanks
[HTC Rezound] djdubd:
Okay, this one confuses me, just came from a Motorola Droid X and when I had the phone docked in my car with it connected to my stereo via 1/8" (headphones) jack it would feed the sound from any incoming calls through my car speakers. I really liked that as it made for an easy hands free system that I didn't have to pay any extra for.

I have noticed with the Rezound however that when I answer a call it uses the phone's speaker just as it would if I had the phone on speakerphone. This is annoying because the built in speaker is not that loud when you factor in the road noise. I find myself leaning forward to be able to hear the phone and not focusing on the road as much.

Is there any way to make the phone feed the audio through the headphone jack to the car speakers?

It seems like it would just assume that if you had a headset/speakers hooked up that you would like the audio to go through them, or there would be a setting somewhere but I haven't been able to find one.

The "headset" icon is displayed on the notification bar when I plug in the audio cable so that leads me to assume that the phone knows it has a "headset" connected even though there isn't a microphone.

It just worked on my previous two phones (Droid X, BB Curve), can anyone else tell me how to change this behavior? Or at the least test it for yourselves and see if you get the same results?

Thanks!

The only way I have found is to exit Car Mode.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi there,

I'm been having recurring Screen of Death issues with my HTC Desire.

This is where the screen is off, but the phone still works, i.e. touch, vibration, sounds, incoming calls etc, but the screen remains off.

The phone is rooted and S-Off and using the latest stable CM7.

I have tried reinstalling the ROM after a full wipe (data, cache and Dalvik)

Tried latest CM7 nightly with the same problem.

I even tried the MIUI and Oxygen ROMs and the problem is still there.

Also, I tried installing the Load Monitor app (to prevent the device from sleeping) but that did not help. Others reported that this has helped them.

I now have a device which appears to be unusable so any help is much appreciated.

To be clear: the phone works fine but once the screen goes off it will not come back on.

Many thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
You obviously haven't tried everything. Check my guide.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi and thanks for taking time to reply.

I've just tried Option 9 in your thread, i.e.:

Fixing Deep Sleep

[STEP1]- Enter dialpad

[STEP2]- type *#*#4636#*#*

[STEP3]- Go to "phone information

[STEP4]- Change "preferred network type" to GSM only, or CDMA only

But unfortunately the problem persists (I didn't try any of the other options because they are not relevant at least to this issue).

Is there anything else I can try, perhaps something more aggressive in terms of "wiping"?

Thanks again.

Try different radio
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi,

I tried to flash another radio through ClockworkMod but I get the error:

"Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread

based recovery."

This is the same as described here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17311987&postcount=2163

So I then tried the fastboot method but once I issue the command adb reboot bootloader, the screen goes black and then there is no response.

I tried this twice and it's the same both times.

Any ideas appreciated as the phone is unusable at the moment.

Thanks

EDIT: I issued the command to flash the radio anyway (fastboot flash radio) even though the screen was completely dark and the radio did indeed flash sucesfully.

I checked in "about phone" and I can see the updated radio.

The radio is version 5.11.05.27 which was the last one sent with the last official HTC update.

So I rebooted the phone and...the same thing.

Once the phone sleeps I cannot turn the screen on, even though the phone itself is on.

PS: I even tried an early Ice Cream Sandwich alpha ROM and the problem persists....

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Try the latest one http://download.oxygen.im/radios/bravo.5.17.05.23.zip

Also if you can't boot fastboot with commands then just poweroff, then hold BACK and POWER
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi Bortak,

that's the one (5.17.05.23) I already had before I downgraded.

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Bortak,

HTC have actually agreed to have a look at the handset as part of the warranty (I was unaware at the time I posted my question that the warranty is 24 months), so I will be sending it to them.

Do you know if I can use HTC's own RUU from their site on my rooted and S-off handset to return it to stock, or do I risk any damage?

(see question here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20288444#post20288444)

[Moderators, I will close / delete one or the other thread once answered. Thanks]
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Really? Which country?

If you have a goldcard/you have the RUU meant for your region, there is no risk if you follow instructions
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi,

I'm in the UK (I believe under EU rules all electronic manufacturers need to provide 24 months though Apple I think only provide 12 I thikn).

In any case, they said OK.

I do not have a goldcard but it's definitely the RUU for my region (i.e. GB / UK).

Just one more question: can I just run the RUU directly or do I need to downgrade HBOOT etc first?

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
1. Is the phone on contract?

- if yes, you need to correct RUU for your

network provider

(NOT region - unless you bought the phone yourself), otherwise your warranty will be void

2. Since you are S-OFF, you need to flash the stock hboot first, then the downgrader, then the RUU

3. If you don't know which RUU is for you, use the 2.3.3 one
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
Hi and thanks,

No, it's an unbranded one.

Can I confirm these steps are right?

(i) Flash Stock Hboot

Verify the MD5SUM of the file

Flash HBOOT with phone in fastboot mode (Back+POWER) -> 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img'

'fastboot reboot-bootloader'

'fastboot erase cache'

Do I need to reboot after this?

(ii) Downgrader

As above but using the	bravo_downgrade.img file.

So I do (i), then immediately (ii), then the official RUU.

Correct?

Many thanks

EDIT: the reason I'm asking about the correct order is because this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16686095&postcount=9

says that the Downgrader needs to be run first and then the stock flash, which is why I'm a bit confused.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Yup, that sounds correct.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No Expert:
bortak, worked perfectly and was able to return device to stock for repair by HTC under warranty.

It turns out the Sleep of Death was a faulty screen.

Thanks.

You should choose update driver in device manager and allow Windows Update to search for new drivers.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btate0121:
I've been having this issue for a few weeks now and it's only seemingly getting worse. HOWEVER.. I think I have an idea of what may be going on.

Can a bad USB cable cause this issue? Maybe some kind of static electricity build up or something. If anyone else out there has this issue can you weigh in? Are you using any damaged or 3rd party cables? My problems started around teh time i orderd a (samsung) micro usb cable for use in my car with a cig lighter power converter thingy that has a usb port on it.

to test I wiped the battery stats in CWM and it actually seemed to help.. until last night when I used the new cable in the car again and it went haywire. I wiped the battery again and ill avoid using the new cable to see if it helps any..

I happened to catch it on video last night so I'll post a link up later. I'd like to get to the bottom of this since sprint wants to charge me to replace the device -___- .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maddmatt02:
I dont see anything in there about what the actual random "problem" is. only problem I have with my menu button is that my "phone" icon is right above it and with my case on the phone it makes it harder for my fat thumb to just hit menu and I sometimes launch the dialer...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quick99si:
so uhhh.. what's the "problem?"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btate0121:
The menu key will randomly activate without me actually touching the screen. Like I said, I have it on video and I'll post it as soon as I get home so everyone can share thoughts on it.

it's exactly what it sounds like. I'll be using the device, sometimes just reading and sometimes not even holding the device at all (as demonstrated in the vid) and the menu key will activate rapidly and very randomly.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ReFiLL:
Well, the Video is down. Id like to see if its the same problem as I have.

I believe It may be. Its quite annoying. The Menu Button just activates. I always assume that its just Oily or dirty, something is making it do it. But even after a wipe it does it and Only with the Menu Key. Not Home, Back, or Search. I also use the Matte Black back TPU case, no difference on or off. Cant find a Rhyme or reason.

Edit:

For the record, im also on FC24.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
haven't seen the video but I noticed during LOS testing when the phone came out that I got random menu pop ups in low signal areas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
Amusing, it did it when I hit "post reply".

I get it off and on, be damned if I can figure out how to replicate. Just does it.

I was starting to think it was my screen protector, since it started around that time. Happens plugged in and unplugged. Can go days without, then it just happens. I do know it only started for me when I flashed ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JsVerbal:
Have you tried reflashing and seeing if the problem still exists. Last week my phone was randomly doing stuff like that. I did a full wipe and reflashed and everything has been fine since.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
I've flashed several ROMs and have had it.

I can say I have had it only on ICS, some more than others. Never tracked it closely, but have had it on the homescreen, browser. Only 2 times since Fd02.

Wish I knew how to make it happen. I will say signal/battery levels have no effect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LordJummy:
its likely there's a short or something. I would take it into sprint. There's no reason not to. If they can't fix it you'll get a new phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deedscreen:
Here's what's worked for me on ALL Android phones that have had this problem, go to your custom recovery, and clear cache and dalvik cache and reboot... Your phone will take a few minutes to boot...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
I just got a refurb because of a blue led of death and mine is doing this as well. I've tried ICS roms, stock EL29, and even did a complete factory reset after flashing back to stock EL29 to no avail. It mainly occurs while I'm on a call or texting. It's driving me nuts and if it continues it's going back to Sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
I have been testing a theory relates to this.

Last night it was pretty bad, so I turned the setting for the hard buttons lights to "always off".

Hasn't happened since.

Only reason I tried this is that I noticed they came on right before the menu went nuts.

As I've said before, I don't think mine is a short since I NEVER had this occur when on gingerbread. Others may be, but I'm nearly certain mine is not.

If anyone else can try this to see if it does help, would be nice to see.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kawaski47:
I'll give that a shot, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
Good idea. I'll try the always on setting and see if that helps as well, that way we'll cover both ways.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
Doesn't work. Had it come back k last night.

Not sure what to try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
Mine did it a few times yesterday and I noticed when it did either the gps was trying to connect or it was trying to connect to wifi or 3g. Maybe a coincidence or not, who knows, but it's something else to look at.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Odom Project:
My phone did the same thing, it isn't the USB cable nor the screen protector. Its a bug when signal drops below a certain level. However, I believe its a touchwiz issue as I have yet to have it happen on any AOSP rom, input anyone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
On fd26, now when it happens (as I'm typing this actually) it locks sometimes, I can't back out and close the menu.

I have CM9 downloaded but don't have time to flash today. May try tonight. I will say it has gotten worse now with each build.

Frustrating.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
Mine locks like that, too. You can "reset" the capacitive buttons by tapping a volume key (after a second or so, you'll see the keys blink off for a split seconds... they have reset) or the power button, and you will be able to use them again.

What's REALLY annoying it when it happens while trying to listen to a voicemail, they keys activate, and then because you face is touching the screen, it stops playing the voice mail and asks about the stupid VVM trial button.

I'm convinced that its a hardware problem. I suspect the light sensor. It will happen often in low-light high-signal situations, but very rarely under bright light low-signal situations. Plus, it happens frequently while listening to voice mails (low light be default, since your face is plastered to the phone) and in bars.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfcooley:
I'm not convinced its hardware, but it did do it on cm9 this afternoon.

We should try and track when it is doing it more closely to narrow down the cause.

If it is hardware, I have insurance and its still under warranty.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nzaw4:

I might try reverting back to complete stock and see what happens, but most likely I'll end up taking it in to sprint
