[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordivf:
I've already been through 4 ICS Roms and several kernels.

Always do a full wipe/format all before swapping ROMs. However I keep having those random reboots.

It wouldn't be so troubling if the latetst reboots wouldn't imply loss of battery stats for the previous x hours (from 3 to 7 usually). Those hard crashes happen with the screen enabled (so not related to deep idle).

I never do OC so that isn't the cause for sure. Ideas?

Is my Nexus S dying or is this some kind of documented weird hard crash?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
There are two ways to OC. Increase the clock speed or/and use live OC. If you use any of that and keep your phone on anything other than 100-1000mhz than that's why its crashing. Other than that it should be stable if you do a clean install.

So yesterday I was messing around with my brand new non rooted and in mooded GN and when I was changing some settings (can't remember exactly what was it) the app force close and every time I try to get in the account settings in the gtalk app it FC.

For test sake I added a second google account and I can get in the account settings w/o FC, but once I try to get in account settings on my main account it FC again.

I tried cleaning cache, disableling the app and reenable it. Didn't tried formatting the phone to factory settings yet, but Im tryng to avoid that for now. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foxehkins:
I'd just wipe it. Probably easier that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gratti:
I was in a trip so I couldn't just wipe out so I keep trying everything I knew to clear whatever settings was causing the fc without success.

So when I was able I did a complete wipe out and now is working. One thing it happened that I kind of expected is that unlike the Nexus S that have MSD when I resseted the device I lost all photos and videos and w/e o had on the virtual sdcard.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelossssss:
Big problem...

After flashing 9.3 on SGS2 without wiping i rebooted in cwm and flashed siyah 2.6.2.

After that the phone stuck on the omega logo and did not boot.

I rebooted into CWM wiped cache/davlic etc and i tryed to reflash the 9.3 and the siyah.

After that i tryed to flash the kernel but the phone restarted itself and since then it doesnt boot at all neither in CWM or into android.

Only in download mode and it's not recognized by ODIN or kies.

ODIN:

ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/003>Firmware update start..

<ID:0/003> zImage

<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!

Kies: The device is not responding.

BUT windows is recognizing the phone in devices.

What should i do?

IF i try to turn it on it appears a phone-triangle-pc logo and nothing happens after that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayerfernandes:
1) Get the right CF Kernel from the Chainfire kernel thread in the Android Original Development Thread. Extract the zip to get a TAR and extract the TAR to get a z-image file. Also download the corresponding original stock kernel from the Intratech thread in the same section.

2) Flash the TAR in PDA using Odin. Do not click repartition. This lets you boot with with functional Root and CWM.

3) If you want to get rid of the yellow triangle, then load the z-image file into /sdcard. Reboot into download mode and use Odin to flash the stock kernel (again in the PDA without repartition). After that, go to the CWM app, choose flash kernel and locate the zimage and proceed.

NB: You can read Chainfire and Intratechs threads in case I was vague somewhere.

Thanks mate but i already know and did all these.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
What is 9.3 you flashed ???

Kies: The device is not responding.

Why are you using KIES to flash a rom is it open and preventing Odin from working .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Are you saying Odin does it doesn't recognise your phone?

In the past Odin flashing has gone wrong and can usually be fixed by a PC reboot or rebooting into download mode again.

9.3 = Omega 9.3 rom.

No i'm not.

I installed kies to see if the phone is recognized. After i realized that it's not i uninstalled the kies.

The thing is that odin sees my phone but stacks at <ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
With 115 posts no reason for you not to ask in the rom thread as its possible its rom specific .

Dont think it is but worth a try .

Choices try Odin on another PC .

Take phone to service centre and hope it is not an expensive repair .

Buy a JTag machine .

The proximity sensor uses infrared light, you can't see that with the naked eye.

Hi ,

I know more or less what the function of md5 checksum is (i think :) ).

Checking if all data is correctly transfered/flashed.

But how do i use it / work with it ?

Do i need a program and check every flash i do , in advance manually ,or how ???

Do i find the md5 in every file i want to flash and compare it with the md5 once its on the sd card from the phone before installing ?

Grts

Patrick
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
Md5 is a way to confirm the data that you have either downloaded or received from any source is a complete accurate copy of the original form.

You can download very simple md5 checkers, see Google, one I downloaded the other night was 25kb.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinoby4u2:
Must someone use a separate computer to download/extract/transfer a file (RUU, ROM, RADIO, ETC) to thier phone; or, is there an app or something that would allow someone to place the file (zip) onto the root of their sd card, without using a separate computer. I only ask; because I am running windows 7 on my laptop (can't seem to get the correct HTC drivers using windows 7, to recognize my phone), my work computer won't allow me to connect any outside devices, and my desktop is connected to my television (it's hard to fight off all the kids to get access).

It would be great if I could figure out how to download/place/rename the file(s) (zip) directly onto my sd card, using only my phone. Any ideas? I have been searching forums for weeks on end and this is my first post.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
you can basically do all that on your phone.

root explorer (gives you access to look, rename files, delete, copy/paste & search your sd card) & zip viewer (zip program) can do it on the phone. also a file called zip signer is good to have incase you want to sign a file...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1345872

To create a special partition in your SD card to which you apps can be automatically move, plus the swap space that will give you more free memory.

There are two good guides about custom roms:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1333865

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1222348

If you are new to this, it will take some time get used to these guides, tools, etc. But there are lots of fun on testing custom ROMs, overclock, benchmarks, different skins, launchers, etc.

A good start is the toolbox, from puppet13th post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117100

It is text only, different from SuperOneClick, a really great tool too, but toolbox can root your phone, install some modules (overclock, cypress / synaptics dual touch), and most important, the dual recovery: freexperia (or xrecovery... I don't remember) plus clockworkmod. Some ROMs are designed for the first one, but most recent ones are for CWM.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
how do you partition sd card? i use to be able to do that until i formatted my sd card...now i forgot how to!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rapchan:
I did this yesterday, following this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1345872

I would prefer another way to repartition my SD, as Linux GPartED, that can easily resize partitions and add new ones. But I couldn't find the requirements for that and had problems a couple of months ago, when I tried to replace my SD and it was reformatted (don't know why) automatically, with no warning.

So I almost followed the thread:

1) backed up all my files (I just mounted SD and copied the files, as I didn't had sd-ext yet)

2) reboot into clockworkmod. I backup here is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!

3) mounted /system & /data, and unmount /sdcard

4) copied sdparted.txt to /sbin/sdparted (already rooted, otherwise it would not work)

adb push sdparted.txt /sbin/sdparted

adb shell chmod 755 /sbin/sdparted

5) As I was in a different ROM, MiniCM7 2.1.6, I didn't have parted, required by sdparted.

So I copied from GingerDX v21

adb push parted /usr/xbin/parted

adb shell chmod 755 /usr/xbin/sdparted

But if your ROM already have parted, you can skip this.

6) Now just run sdparted as mentioned in MarJar thread. I have a 8 GB SD, and I choose 512 MB for sd-ext and 256 MB for swap, leaving more than 7 GB for files. So mine was:

adb shell

sdparted -es 512M -ss 256M -efs ext4

(someone, somewhere, mentioned that ext4 would be faster. I saw some benchmarks for Linux telling the opposite... But ext4 jas journaling, so it should be safer)

Now you have a partitioned SD.

7) Copy userinit.tx from the thread to /sd-ext/userinit.sh. It will be automatically executed on startup and mount the enable swap:

adb push userinit.txt /sd-ext/userinit.sh

adb shell chmod 755 /sd-ext/userinit.sh

8) Now I would recommend, if you have installed your apps to your ROM, to mount the SD again and copy the files back to the SD. You can do it in clockworkmod, menu Partitions or something like that, choosing Mount SD Card.

I didn't, so when I rebooted the phone, the "Apps" (or whatever remained fromthem in /data) were move to /sd-ext automatically. But any previous ROM, as mine also, would keep files in SD. The result was the nothing was working. So I copied the files back to SD card and restored the backup I took in step 2 (that saved me ;) ).

But if you restore the files back to SD before rebooting, I think you would be fine.

It worked gracefully for me after restoring the backup.

9) Reboot and enjoy.

Or you could make your own flashable zip to try it.

[LG Nitro HD] skywalker26:
Hey all, xda noob here! Just got my Nitro for Christmas and loving it so far (way better than the Backflip I replaced it with).

Having trouble with the battery though. When I'm playing a high-demand game, I lose battery even when I'm plugged into the included wall charger. I know that it's possible for the battery to drain faster than a car charger or usb port can keep up with, but from what I could find, that doesn't usually happen with a wall charger.

Just wanted to know if this is normal, or if it's something with my phone.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Never tried to game while being on the wall charger. I can give it a try tonite to see whether it's happening to me too. What game are you playing btw, just so I can test the same game too.

Kinda funny though, since the wall charger has 1.2amp output, which should be more than enough to power the phone and charge the battery at the same time.
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
I can confirm this issue as well.

My laptop adapter has USB charging port with 2.0A output, plugged in Nitro would discharge during Google Talk video call + active WiFi tithering (with not much use from connected laptop), although the battery stats say it's charging.
[LG Nitro HD] skywalker26:
Playing Sentinel 3. I'm rooted, but haven't tried any of the battery optimization suggestions yet. Either way, that's a lot of drain. At one point I also got an overheat warning, and powered off, only to find that the battery was completely drained. Not sure if the issues are related.

More FUD I see...

USB charging ports are limited to 1.5A as per USB 2.0 specifications. The Nitro HD requires 1.2A to charge. If you have other USB devices connected to the system, you won't get the dedicated 1.5A. This is why your device loses power yet the charge indicator is active.
