Oops this doesn't look good, I know this thing is supposed to unbrickable and I do have a nandroid copy of the firmware on the SD card

But I have just shut the unit down to reboot it and it will not come on now.

All that happens is the screen lights up and nothing else.

I have tried shutting it back down and booting again, I have tried the nvflash sequence again but nothing, just a backlit screen and nothing else.

Also whilst the power is plugged in the unit will not even attempt to come on when trying nvflash, I should have mentioned that before as that has always been the case.

All I have done today is install the getjar app, facebook, angry birds and moved the Clean & Stable Add-On For All Stock Firmware V4 mod to the software update folder but not actually flashed it.

I have even taken the SD card out and tried booting up but still the same result.

Any ideas anyone please?
[Vega General] mitt69:
OK that seems nuts but the thing has finally gone into recovery mode just as I had all but given up, I have now updated it with modded stock v2 and vegacomb and just waiting to see if it is now sorted.

It came on and went through all the vegacomb animations but now it appears to be a blank backlit screen again
[Vega General] slybunda:
put original stock firmware back on it, you may fine only v 1.10 on the internet, so give that a try.
[Vega General] mitt69:
Thanks for the reply mate

I have managed to do exactly what you suggested and nvflashed the original Vega1.10 and have since updated with modded stock V2 and then updated to Vegacomb and all seems great except for the odd crash but they are fairly far and between

Nice app, need translation?!
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Nice app.

I found the setup a bit confusing, but i don't really know how it could be made better.

After trying it i got some FCs:

I was using the unlock feature.

I'm using a i9000 on latest cyanogen build from repo.

I would make screenshots with another font ;-).
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
thanks, translations are always welcome.

Yea, I wasn't too happy with the setup, but... I only found out about the brightness thing after testing it out on a i9000 too. Tried a more automated approach, but doesn't produce the same results as regular presses. I'll upgrade the setup process when I find a better solution.

Thanks for the logs, I tried reproducing the problem, but didn't get a force close, but I think I might know what the problem might be.

Will get to work on that.

lol the font looks really really cute.
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
I'm still not able to reproduce the forceclose, but thanks to the logs, I believe I fixed the problem. One of them was leftover code I missed removing which strangely wasn't causing me any problems.

The other... should be fixed.

You'll see an update soon.

Which phone are you using and which part doesn't work?
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
New update! Should fix up the phones having the lockscreen suddenly locking and also those who still has their stock lockscreen show up.

[Android Apps and Games] csoulr666:
Nice work there....but i have one problem tough....during calls the phone gets locked itself and i have to unlock it again to hang up and stuff :(

And could you add a "disable stock lockscreen" feature?? It would be highly appreciated
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
I'm currently fixing up the call lock right now.

There wasn't a disable stock lockscreen feature because it was supposed to disable the stock lockscreen automatically. However, that only seems to be working on the phones I'm testing on and strangely, the phones I can test on won't show the stock lockscreen, but some others does.

I'll be doing some more work into this part.
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
Update

New update out. Fixed up the calling. Now, the incoming call and incall screens won't be locked up. After call, it will lock back up. This works if you press the power button to turn off too.

New Feature. Find it in experimental setting. New feature affects the screen time out. Now, if you want, the Screen Timeout will lock with Void Lock instead of turning off the screen. Good feature for those like me who uses the WakeLock and avoids using the power button.

I forgot to disable my other lock screen and now seem to be locked out of my phone. Evo 4g with decks rom. any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] roshga:
Great dev! can't wait for it to work completely on ICS :D
[Android Apps and Games] mildlydisturbed:
Couple of issues

evo 3d: when going to uninstall the uninstall screen flashes like crazy, buttons are highlighted (force stop, clear data, move to sd, uninstall) and blinking, takes several taps before you can get it uninstalled.

evo 4g: also when uninstalling it flashes, sometimes you have to clear data, move to SD card, then uninstall

it's one of the oddest things I've ever seen... and no, I'm not the one who left the nasty market comments.
[Android Apps and Games] DevJackey:
I believe you have emailed me about this problem. I've replied to the email.

Thanks, I also can't wait for it.

Wow! that's also one of the oddest things I've heard about.

But, I can't imagine why it would happen. None of my code goes beyond the lockscreen and shouldn't affect the uninstalling at all. I just did an uninstall on my phone, tablet, and old phones to see if I get the same issue, but it was able to be uninstalled properly.

The only uninstall issue I know of is that the app is granted Device Admin status after the first time you press the Void Lock app, but that will only give you an Uninstall is not Successful message instead of the issues you are having.

Also odd that it happened to both of your phones.

I can't seem to think of why that uninstalling problem happened and I'm 100% positive that none of the code for Void Lock will affect the uninstalling. But if all that flashing and etc happens only when you are uninstalling Void Lock then Void Lock should definitely be the culprit. Its so strange...

Hmm, could it be related to your rom?

I also never had to clear data or move to SD card to uninstall it. Just disable device admin in the phone's Security Settings and then uninstall it and it'll work properly.

I'm not too worried about the market comments. I guess I expect it because of all the incompatibility issues I have not been able to predict when I released it. Yet, it does work for a lot of phones so I wouldn't even know which phones to restrict. All the problems seems to be coming from manufacturers making changes to the default lockscreen. Still working on fixing all of that right now.

I am a bit upset at those nasty market comments that rates low because of not being able to uninstall. I did give instructions in the market description. I guess I'll need add a new tab in the Settings to describe how to uninstall.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumbrecher:
Try NTFS format.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChaoticWeaponry:
Already did. It looks like it sees it, because it tries to mount the external storage, but doesn't do anything. I used a USB flash drive to make sure the USB port worked properly, so its not the USB port...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumbrecher:
Hmm what model hard drive is it? I just hooked up my old Western Digital 120 GB 5400 rpm HDD formatted in NTFS that I bought way back in 2004 and it works fine, shows up in the notification bar and opens with the folder icon, works via File Manager and Root Explorer as well. Is your hard drive one that is supposed to self power via USB? Mine has an external power adapter, so that could be a possible source of your troubles if it's a self-powered one.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChaoticWeaponry:
It is self powered, and a 500gb 7200rpm harddrive, Seagate Momentus. So power is probably an issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumbrecher:
That is most likely the issue. I recall that a year ago a lot of people kept using the USB adaptor on iPads to connect external self-powered hard drives and cameras and such, then Apple released a firmware update to make the tablet check for power usage of the connected device because self-powered hard drives, for example, were pulling too much power through the adaptor and damaging it. There could be a similar issue with the USB ports on our Transformers. I don't believe that tablet batteries were meant to put out the power to sustain such devices, sadly. =/

First of all some questions.

How did you install CWM?

What version of CWM did you run?

Is it nAa's recovery?

I think that your recovery is not able to install custom roms and that it has been deleted during the installation of hybrom.

To install a fully functional CWM and to be able to flash custom roms,you will need to install a custom kernel first, that contains CWM.This can be done only by using fastboot.So you better try and make it work...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yohannsiche:
Hi, thanks for the reply,

the cwm i've installed was with SE extrem tweak installer found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1346190

but i don't know wich version it was.

Yes i've already tried with flasboot, but the problem is that, when i push the kernel, it says that i'm not root!!

Is there a way to get root with fastboot or adb? cause superone cliq or doomlord script root don't work until my phone is not fully started.

I get adb working some times, but i'm not sure i can do something with it.

Bye
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bbooff:
If fastboot says that you are not root, then your bootloader is still locked.Unlock your bootloader (visit this page:http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions)

and then flash whatever kernel you want....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yohannsiche:
Yeahhhhh,

it works!!

Thanks a lot, you're a god for me!!

It is strange cause, it wasn't bootlaoder locked before, so that's why i didn't try to unlock it first. For me it was already unlocked.

So, it's great now i can't do what i want.

HAve a nice day.

Thanks again.

Hey guys,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
Hey there everyone, I am wanting to edit my framework to get a better looking notification bar. I have an android phone called SH7218U, I am rooted with all Gapps.

If you look this up phone on Google, you will see that the notification bar and icons are very similar to stock Android 2.2 ( I am running 2.2.1). The only difference is that the signal bar is located to the left of the bar as well as some icons getting set there as well. You can really see this here: http://www.itechnews.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Sharp-SH7218U-Clamshell-Android-Phone.jpg

When going into root explorer and checking out system/framework I am see the familiar framework-res.apk file, but I also see an apk file called dianxinos-res.apk. It seesm to be able to mess with framework and change the UI and other things, both of these files need to be edited. This is just a guess though since I have been able to find a post on a Chinese forum that gives a new notification bar (the only difference being the battery icon replaced with a numerical battery representation and the (when bar is pulled down) shortcut to the useless built-in task killer is gone. Inside of the package to this new framework I get both framework and dianxinos files so it seems I would have to replace both of the old files with the new ones.

As you can see in the above image there are virtual android buttons on the bottom of the screen as well, for when you want to use the phone normally. I do not think that the dianxinos-res.apk is linked to the virtual buttons as exploring system/media/pics contain.bmp images of the virtual buttons and I have confirmation by another SH7218U user that editing these images will directly effect how they are displayed.

I was just wondering anyone know how to edit the framework when there are two files corresponding to this. I don't know much about editing the framework but even so I am quick to learn but figured I would just ask around before I do anything. Worst comes to worst, like a bootloop for instance, I have a system.img for my phone so flashing that with fastboot will get my phone working again.

Anyway, Ive uploaded both files in case anyone would like to look at them. I am trying to go for a gingerbread-esque notification bar with blue instead of green possibly.

If anyone thinks this thread would get better hits elsewhere I would appreciate any input.

[Xperia Arc General] abd_alazeez2002:
it is not a matter of stable or not

it matter if everything is working in the custom rom

CM7 has everything working fine but only video recording is not working but could be fixed by using another camera app from the market

as for CM9 (ics ver) iam not sure if everything is working fine. just read the change log and found only camera is not working

As for me i use arc with CM7 and doomlord kernel

overclocked to 1.4ghz

and battery life is very good for me (one charge keep the phone 2 day without using)
[Xperia Arc General] WebbyHRT:
CM7 is great. Battery life is heaps better. The only downside is the video recording, everything else is good.

CM9 is still in alpha and probably isn't ready for everyday use. I've had it on my second arc for a day now and I'm getting a lot of force closes.

Thanks for the info. Possibly this thread will be closed soon, but anyway, LG posted 3rd Quarter 2012 for ICS P970. That's just disgusting. Most of us maybe don't even have the phone for the "3rd Quarter 2012" (which maybe in the real world is 2013-2014 Christmas, if they don't stop development "for technical reasons like few RAM or something".

We are lucky we finally had Cyanogenmod development. Even if CM9 takes long, it will come months before LG official ICS.

Hi people. The story is this one:

the night before Christmas Eve, I left my transformer in charge, and, before I went to sleep, battery was full, so I unplugged it, leaving it switched on, on the desk.

The morning later, when I tried to unlock it, it wasn't responding at any combinations of events, starting by pressing Power button, and trying to dock/undock it ecc.

At first, I thought to a SOD, but there was no way to wake it up.

So, I tried to plug it to a pc, and it was only recognized as an APX device, there was no way to use ADB, and if I tried to restore to stock (i.e.) using NVFLASH, I only got an error about the impossibility of read/write (I'll post the log later).

What happened in your opinions? I was thinking to RMA it, but I cannot get back to stock, so, I would have my warranty voided.

Any ideas and/or advices?

EDIT: I add the log of NVFLASH:
