[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwuk:
Hi,

I am having a really odd and very frustrating issue with the latest CM7 Stable Build on my device.

I have been using the latest stable since its release back in November.

I ensured a clean wipe and install of CM 7.1.0.1 and setup my phone accordingly and Nandroid Back Up around a Week later as the Device was behaving as intended.

Sadly, I am now plagued with the following issue which occurs without any common trigger....

I will be using the device which will be behaving normally and it will suddenly, normally when screen is off... reboot and enter a Boot Loop (CM7 Robot will either be frozen solid or will keep rebooting to CM7 Robot) which seems to continue until a battery pull.

I will then restart the device and it sometimes boots straight away though sometimes hangs for a while. Once booted it boot to the 'Setup your device' Screen, from which point onwards you are required to Re-Enter your Logins for Google and such like. All settings and sync profiles are normally missing/deleted so requires setting up of all apps requiring logins etc.

As you can imagine, the above is quite an inconvenient as it normally happens when I actually need to use the device :(

I have tried reinstalling a clean CM7 over the top as well as wiping and formatting the SD card.

Neither seem to have solved the issue.

Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.

It is also worth noting that while the device will charge off USB, it will not allow usb tethering or any form of USB Mounting etc.

Cheers

Jason

cm7 issues.

sounds like your in quite a pickle my friend.;)

i used to get your reboot issues (the bootloops) but that was because my phone was overclocked to over 700. i never got the setup device screen though.

when you say youve tried a clean install over cm7 have you factory reset the device as well as deleteing the dalvik cache??

also my sound stupid but have you tried your backup to see if it starts again??

it sounds like something has became quite corrupted.

have you installed any new apps recently or changed anything in the system files of the phone?

also when you have to go through the set up are all your apps still there afterwards? And when you first flashed it did the tethering work at all?

Heavy_metal_man.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwuk:
Yup

Yup and while it does restore to a point where I can use my phone quite quickly after however I'm very cautious after - typically it happens a couple of weeks later

No real new recent apps installed and no mods to the system files that I can recall.

All my apps are still installed but many apps require re-setup or accounts for sync require re-adding. Phonebook requires import of contacts however messages remain in place.

I can't recall :( I think it did or at least USB-Storage did
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scratch0805:
Do you have a SD ext partition?

I ask because I had similar problems (randomly losing data) with an ext 4 partition, repartitioning my card using ext 3 solved it, also put your dalvik cache and data back into phone memory if it isn't already as that can also cause instability.

Try this....

Run an RUU for wildfire.

- Download (RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_C_Radio_13.45.55.24 _ 3.35.15.19_release_141106_signed) from android forums.

- Connect phone to PC and run RUU

- This downgrads phone OS to eclair (android 2.1)

- Let it do the bizniss

- Re-root with unrevoked 3

- Re-Flash CM7 and gApps
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwuk:
Many thanks Scratch and Arkose,

Since my post last week I have since formatted the SD Card as well as Wiping the Phone as much as possible.

I then flashed and installed the latest CM7 Stable, Radio Package as well as re-setting up the EXT Partition this time as Type 3.

Once up and running I reinstalled all Apps.

Seems to be running okay so far.

Long may it last hopefully.

If not will try last suggesion :)

A quick update...

Still having issues :(

I'm noticing that randomly phone process will crash for no apparent reason/cause, normally when off Wifi and on Mobile Data.

Last night was the worst its even been though... at a critical moment when I needed the phone to work... it decided it was having none of it.

Phone kept switching Airplane Mode On and Off causing process.android.com to crash along with most other services :( So I rebooted only to find that it now was either stuck in Airplane Mode or couldnt enable to Radio (No Phone Signal at all) so I did a battery pull while trying to walk home in the pitch black and rebooted.

The Saga continued even after a battery pull, I eventually as I got in the door was able to use the 'Torch' and recieve a phonecall before all the processes crashed once more...

So I did a battery pull, left the phone for five mins and rebooted. All was well for a while, enabled Wifi, phone seemed happy.

Had to reboot a short while ago, after recieiving a phonecall and text.... grrr... anyone have any suggestions?

[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
Hi,

I bought a new battery for my Desire (LeeDroid 2.4.1), it should be an original HTC battery and it looks like this. And it seems to have a good capacity.

But i has a VERY strange behavior:

I put it into my Desire and put it on the original charger while it was off. I wait until the green led came. then power on, charger off.

the desire said: 94% not 100%. So I put it on the charger, again. % raises, with 44mA (Battery Monitor Widget and other battery monitor apps showing this).

after some time 100% but still 44mA charging current!? :confused:

putting charger off: still 44mA charging current!?!? :eek:

So, I used my Desire. from 100% to 0%: the whole time: 44mA charging! no discharge current, charge!

and the whole time: voltage is stable at 3923mV no decrease

And another strange thing:

using a video player, % and mAh in Battery Monitor decreases (this is ok), and after player and screen off: the % and mAh level increases!

so my actual battery log without a charger:

15%

15%

15%

a) any idea what to make with this battery

b) any idea what this is about?

BTW: Can anybody tell me: What part is responsable for the different values? Does the battery (with its charging logic?) tell them to the desire? Or did the Desire estimate them from voltage or so?

battery voltage

mAh level

charging/uncharging current

temperature
[Desire Accessories] jonas9398:
I guess you're not the only one who has a weird battery ;-) .

Sometimes my battery is charging and charging and charging until 99% but not until 100 and the LED does not get green, it stays red. Then, sometimes it gets green and 100%. But it does not stop at 94% as you said.

And often the battery discharges and suddenly it gets 1 to 5 % more. Sometimes at the status of 60% or as you have it between 10 and 15 or even between 30 and 35.

I really do not understand this battery behavior but I have to say that I also bought a second battery. The original battery did not behave like that.

Oh and I also have a custom rom, but I also had this behavior with the original rom.

Sorry that I could not help you but if someone knows something about it, that would be very nice.

[Desire Accessories] BombaUcigasa:
Did you happen to erase the battery calibration file before booting with the new battery? You can do it from the recovery menu (clockwork) or using an app (com.nema.batterycalibration)

If you don't do this, the OS assumes you did not change batteries and will be confused when the battery does not reach certain thresholds as expected (100% going up, 15% going down, 5% going down, 0% going down).

Also voltage does not equal total charge. Voltage is influenced by temperature, charging stage and speed or discharging stage and speed, also time between the charging and discharging events.

Just fix the calibration file, after you charge the battery to 100% (power off, replug charger to be sure to tap it off) and do a full discharge and recharge cycle.
[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
sorry, forgott to mention:

after my first shock I delete it in recovery menu. No change.

And I cannot believe this is a battery stats issue: I have two old batteries, one original and one third party. I can swap them and every time I got a reasonable current value while charging and during using it. Only the new one has this error.
[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
But it is nearly impossible that the voltage is absolut stable over a whole using period, or?

Even now (I used my older HTC battery this day) with the new one I have absolut stable:

44mAh, 3923mV

IMHO the battery tells wrong values to the desire. therefore my question: Does anyone knows which values are told by the battery logic?
[Desire Accessories] BombaUcigasa:
It is very possible. The cheap 3rd party batteries ICs do not report voltage and temperature correctly, just a static value to be accepted by the device.

This is why charge estimations won't work correctly. I have such a battery, the only reliable read is when it goes under 15%, and 5%. Those are real warnings, at least the battery won't flake out without notice.
[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
I wanted to say: a stable and correct value should be impossibe - of course a faked value can be stable. But this battery should be an original HTC and no 3rd-party.

But it seemed to be the battery: I tried it with another desire (stock rom) and the same error. So I have to talk to the salesman.
[Desire Accessories] BombaUcigasa:
:)

Well there is a very small chance the battery was genuine but broken, otherwise I'm sorry, but the Chinese manufacturers need to be taught that smartphone batteries should be treated more like laptop batteries, use a better controller and you get better sales.

I believe genuine official batteries can only be obtained from HTC shops and official resellers.
[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
got a replacement - same behaviour :mad:
[Desire Accessories] wspawn:
Have you solved the problem since?

I have a HTC Desire, and replaced the battery recently with a supposidly genuine one and am getting exactly the same behaviour - 44mA and stuck on 3923mV. The phone also never reaches 100% when charging (while powered on), reaches 99% and says there with red led forever. It does show green when charging powered off though.

The battery does seem to last more than the older one so it's not a major issue - I'm just concerned at the not reaching 100% part (damaging the battery?) and the accuracy of the battery meter in android (% remaining).
[Desire Accessories] stm999999999:
no, got an envelope for reshipment.

I think about bying a battery directly from Amazon. I hope they have original parts.
[Desire Accessories] wspawn:
Yea, thanks for the reply. I put my original battery in and it works fine so definitely a fake / broken battery. Bit pissed off as the place I bought it from swore it was genuine.
[Desire Accessories] 7_michel:
Got a similar defective battery, but the guy who sold it to me did not agree to replace it..... I think it is a dangerous battery not to be used

Hi. Contacts deleted due to Factory data reset can be recovered with a app/tool somehow or not?

I made a factory data reset (tought that my contacts are saved on the google account) and I lost all my ~500 contacts.

When we save contacts to phone memory they are on the internal storage or is a separate memory for contacts? I tried to use some app's from market but all of them find only other type of files that have been deleted. Tried to find by .vcf extention and nothing?

All my contacts are lost forever or there is a way to recover them?

Mention that I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S Plus (I9001) today rooted by the method described on your forum.

[General Questions and Answers] scandiun:
BS Player (even Pro) doesn't allow to drag or pan (move) video while zoomed. It's just centered.

Picturen Lite is the way to go. You can zoom and pan a video like if it were a picture, except that the video keeps playing.

MX Player doesn't allow either to pan, only to zoom on the center of the video.
[General Questions and Answers] Unreal_Hawkz:
Yo people...it is available in MXplayer since v1.7.24. TO do that first u need to activate it. Go to settings>player>controls check Zoom and pan

Now u can pinch to zoom and after pinching(without removing ur finger) swipe to pan

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gprsnl:
My streak 5 report an e2fsck error, the inner SD card is wrong, when restarting.

So I dissembled the phone, and replace the inner TF card with a SanDisk C6 mobile ultra card.

The error is fixed. But the wifi signal got very poor.

I must take the phone very near the wireless router/AP, about 1 meter to get a connection.

What is wrong and how to fix it?

The original stock ROM version is 322. I have flash this ROM after replacing inner TF.

I have also tried the stock ROM 354. Today, DJ_Steve's gingerstreak 2.4.4 is flashed.

The wifi signal is still very poor. ( I do remember to flash dsp1 and amss, factory reset, etc.)

Any suggestions?

After rooting... you can change pretty much the whole OS by flashing custom ROMs found in the thread mentioned above, or you can just make small changes by installing MODs that changes certain things like battery, etc. To install some MODs you will need to flash the respective Kernels as well. However as a beginner I would recommend just flashing custom ROMs.

As of now, I've tried Skyrocketeer, QuickWiz, and Sky Ice Cream Sandwich and they all are usable with minor bugs here and there that may or may not affect you.

Good luck!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] reubendevries:
First you need to flash Clockworkmod Recovery. Then you place the zip on your SDcard, do a Nandroid backup through clockworkmod Recovery (not necessary but highly, highly recommended... especially if you have never done this before.) Then select install zip from SD card, find the .Zip file and run it and you should be golden.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] reubendevries:
Hey one other thing, try not to flash through Odin. Samsung has a counter for custom rom flashing and they will void your warranty. The best way to get clockworkmod recovery is buy paying through Rom Manager Premium. Sure it 5.00 bux but thats a worth it compared to voiding your warranty. It also will make sure you install the correct clockworkmod recovery.
