don't sob, calm down, it will be alright. I assume you are young, so almost bricking a device may give you a heart attack, but there is almost always a way out of it. For right now, take a break from the device, get your mind off of it, and come back later, it WILL be alright.
[Kindle Fire General] Vashypooh:
Power the kindle all the way off.

Power it all the way back on.

Install drivers.
[Kindle Fire General] [-_-]:
This will work!. When Vashypooh says to install the drivers he means to do it manually like this here is a quote from my thread on the complete video guide that would have answered these questions for you and fixed your problem immediately:

• I have also noticed that some people also get stuck at 3:55 in this video at the firefire triangle. The fix for this is fairly easy and is explained in the video if you need a walkthrough step by step for doing this (Updating the drivers)here you go:

- Go to start Menu and right click on computer, Click manage

- In computer Management hit device manager

- I am guessing that you see your kindle connected in there with a yellow ! by it

- Right click on kindle and update driver software

- Click Browse my computer for driver software

- Click let me pick from the list of device drivers on my comp

- Click Next

- Click Have Disk

- Click Browse

- Navigate to your user folder in that window/ or wherever your .android folder is

- Double click on .android folder

- Double click on Driver Folder

- Now Click open

- Now click ok

- Click Next

- ClickInstall driver software anyway

and you should be okay!

Here is that thread on the complete video guide that I find have answered many others questions....

I tried putting Rafdroid 4.2 on my hd2 and deleted everything from my sd card. But for some reason it won't work when I copy it unto my sd card. Sometimes it won't even copy & it says the file can't be located on here. (Something like that). I really want rafdroid but it doesn't seem to work. if anybody has a clue on what is wrong or what to do, please let me know asap. A video explaining how to correct everything & also install rafdroid will be really helpful. So please if you make a video I would really appreciate it. Please help me!

[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
I'm a first time Android user (I'm a former employee of T-Mobile so I messed around with a lot of phones so I'm not new to the Android game) and I have been a Nokia user my whole life. I bought my Amaze 2 weeks ago for 1 purpose.

My Comcast internet sucks for my Xbox Live so I bought the Amaze to use as my HotSpot. Other than that, there are pros and cons of this phone.

The phones I had previously for the past 6 years are Nokia 6680, Nokia N95, Nokia 5800, Nokia N97 and the Nokia N8. As you can see, I only used Nokia. I realized some major differences from Nokia and HTC.

The Pros:

- Beautiful, clear and vivid 4.3″ screen

- Super fast (Overclocked at 1.73GHz)

- Very durable and strong

- A built in Task Manager

- Running on T-Mobile HSPA+ 42mb network

- Can have the bootloader unlocked so you can root and install a custom ROM (do at your own risk)

The Cons:

- Original battery doesn’t last as long (Compared to my Nokia N8)

- The camera is not the greatest. I say it's a POS compared to my Nokia N8

- The sound quality in a phone call is horrible (Compared to my Nokia N8)

- The useless capacitive Search button (Waste of space)

My N8 has a better aluminum casing. It's actually scratch resistant. I never had a scratch mark on it.

I definitely miss Nokia's durability and hardware but I just wish Nokia had caught up with the market.

Now tell me what you like about your Amaze compared to your other phones. This should also help people who are looking to buy an Amaze to get a better idea of it and to hear what people have to say about it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
it is becoming annoying every prospective buyer of the amaze opening a new thread whether or not to buy the phone, what the issues are etcetc. anyways solid built phone, camera is great, screeen is awesome, battery doesnt last too long, sometimes overheats but no worries wont burn your fingers, some complain about the screen bleed but I dont find it a big deal, microphone sucks if u were to record something. thats pretty much it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Babydollll:
I love the qHD resolution. It's beautiful on the 4.3in screen (to be fair I loved it on the Sensation as well, still do ;) ). The build quality is nice. I like the weight of it in my hand. It's fast, (even though I've been too lazy to unlock the bootloader...and spoiled by having true S-off on my Sensation.). I do love the camera. It seems to take brighter pics (with less noise) than my Sensation ....and I'm really happy since TMo released the WiFi calling update recently. :D

[HTC Amaze 4G] papcoz:
I bought HTC Amaze instead of HTC Sensation because of these four reasons.

-headset/Speaker loudness

-more storage/ram/cpu

-dust get into battery case through microphone.

-NFC

Right now, all of my family members are using HTC Amaze as their dash cam, Amaze have never reboot during recording even it runs real hot. I never thought this little phone able to record non-stop 1hour 1080p video :)

The phone was running hot but very clear enough to read license plate of passing cars with the right condition. ( due to my sh*ttty T-mobile OEM car kit :( )
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alienmonkey:
On previous android file systems I was able to manually assign the phone a static ip, dns, gateway, subnet, however I can't seem to figure out how to do it on ICS. Can this no longer be done or has it been moved somewhere in settings I'm overlooking? I'm having trouble connecting to my home network, however I know if I set up everything manually using static values I'll be set. I go to Settings -> Wifi -> : -> Advanced -> but nothing there to change the phone static information.

-EDIT-

Nevermind got it, but have another question below. Under wifi, hold the network and then choose modify. Put in IP address you want phone to be, gateway for router, Internet DNS information, and the subnet 24 for 255.255.255.0. I did it wrong the 1st time and assuming it was asking for router info and IP and not to assing the phone a specific IP address too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
Long press on your networks SSID in the list of available networks and select 'modify network'. From here you can set everything manually.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
Long press on the access point you want to change the settings for and choose "modify network". From the pop up window tick "show advanced options".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alienmonkey:
Thanks guys I figured it out. When I originally did that I thought it was for router info, so I stuck the IP address of the router in IP slot and not gateway at the time. Went back in and it just dawned on me. Back to setting up the new toy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alienmonkey:
Don't want to waste space with a new thread, but must the router be broadcasting? I've always been able to setup without broadcasting the router, however I turned off wifi and turned it on and ICS cannot find the router and connect unless I'm broadcasting. I prefer to not broadcast my router for the neighborhood to see, despite having security encryption on
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corndiggy:
So I rooted my cousin's color nook using uNooter. I flashed CWR and tried to install CM7 using Rom Manager's "install from sd". I left the backup option checked, the delete factory option unchecked, and delete general option checked. Eventually, it booted to the "N" screen and stayed there. I turned it off and booted to CWR, but now the volume buttons do not work so I cannot navigate the screen. I've been googling this for the last three hours. Any suggestions???

[HTC EVO 3D] vowywowy:
can somebody make audio codec or something that is equivalent to the sound of Windows Bass Boost Enhancement? it the settings are 50hz with 18db of boost. I find this to be very pleasing to the ear. I do have a rooted EVO 3D with beats audio and the bass just doesn't compare. the test song i used was Spitfire-Kill the Noise Remix By Porter Robinson(very bass heavy). so to recap could someone either make or link me to an app with controllable bass boost?

P.S. i have beats audio because i am using Leedroid's rom.

thank you everyone! to the guy who said use anthrax, i have no idea which file to download and when i did try to get one, it bootlooped my device so i had to reflash leedraoid which did not make me happy :(
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Sorry about that problem. You first need to make sure you select the shooter or evo 3d (shooter) section. Then you need to determine cdma or gsm. Sprint is cdma. Also aosp version is for cyanogenmod or miui roms. I know it can be a little confusing.

I also want to warn you that some performance tweaks in roms can conflict with that kernel. You'll know if you get random reboots... But the sound improvements are incredible.
[HTC EVO 3D] gunfromsako:
I found volume control + in the market is that the one your talking about?
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
If it's by meltus then you got the right one
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
And this anthrax kernel is the right 1. However I don't know if it might conflict with scripts within the rom. Just sharing if you wanted to try it still. Make a nand backup before flashing just in case.

No it is named Volume+
[HTC EVO 3D] myn:
Flash a ROM with DSP Manager installed. or push the necessary apk and libs to your existing ROM.

It contains a parametric EQ that allows you to boost the lower frequencies as well as all the others.
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
Yea, I would ditch the beats, go with dsp or power amp,

Volume+ just didn't do it for me.. I use power amp, im a bass head myself. In power amp, I turn of the limit and the tone part of the app. I use the sliders to get the sound I want...

Just the anthrax kernal alone with the beats drivers should make it sound better rather beats is on or not...

Shot from my sharp shooter in 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
I would say PowerAmp is your best bet.

The app has a customizable EQ, with gain and pre-amp. It also has a nice little bass and treble knob to adjust it.

PowerAmp manages to let me crank the bass so high that I can barely hear anything else. Try it out?

Is there anything better about the a501 vs the a500 other than the 3g capability?

I have just got an 8gb a500, brand new, and a used 16gb a501.

I would not be using the a501 with a sim card. I only want to keep one of these. The obvious choice seems the a501 because of the double space, but I am wondering if it actually does anything differently than the a500? (better OR worse)

I noticed that coming off of a factory reset, the a501 has less apps loaded on it vs the brand new a500 out of the box .

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moltenbobcat:
I'm curious if it's possible to just boot into cwm to do a backup and install a ROM. I would like to do something like this

fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img

Then create a nandroid backup and flash a custom rom. The purpose of doing this would allow me to retain my stock recovery. Is this possible, are there any negatives to doing it this way, if I need to get back into CWM to restore my backup or flash a different ROM couldn't I just rerun fastboot without wiping out my stock recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] silow:
Flashing CWM does not modify your bootloader. The recovery and bootloader are two different things. Without unlocking the bootloader you won't be able to fastboot CWM anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moltenbobcat:
Sorry, I mistyped I intended to say recovery not bootloader, I have already unlocked my boot loader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] silow:
You cannot Fastboot boot a recovery since this method is intended to boot a boot image.

There are no downsides to flashing CWM since it is trivial to flash the stock recovery back.

Temporarily loading CWM makes is more complicated, especially if something goes wrong flashing ROMs you have more steps to perform to recover.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What are you talking about?? Of course you can boot a recovery using fastboot. And it doesn't make anything more complicated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes, you can do everything you stated. Although it is almost as much effort as flashing CWM and flashing the stock recovery after.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moltenbobcat:
Yeah I was kind of thinking I was over complicating it I think I will just go with flashing it permanently. I did read somewhere in a cwm thread that there are a few issues with having cwm flashed to recovery like not being able to charge with the phone off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DonJuan692006:
That doesn't apply to us. That was an issue that came up with the early builds of CWM for the HTC Sensation. The problem with what you wanted to do is more of a recovery issue. What happens if you flash or modify the wrong file and you get stuck in a boot loop? Now you have to wait to get to a computer to re-boot into the recovery to get a restore going. As long as your boot loader is unlocked and you can turn the phone on you'll have no issues with getting it back to stock for a warranty exchange if that's what you're worried about.

Lag issues, although its stated on Android Forums and on other sites that Racht's rom is the best rom to use, i have noticed a lot of lags and delays throughout this rom, most noticable when scrolling through menu's.

Welcome to Androot-N7p-ROM

for the NextBook 7 Premium *ONLY.

I decided to change up some of the apps and generalize the rom in terms of its boot-animation screen. It runs on LauncherPro (just choose it as the "always"/default upon first instance of it. The Launcher that comes with the device isn't so great, but I left it there just in case.

It's based on the first known rooted ROM for this device: 'DocHoppy's ROM'. Credit for most of this ROM goes to him and to 'Wendal' for his toolset for packing the ROM (into cramfs) for the Nextbook 7 Premium device.

As such, it is a

beta/ work-in-progress

.

Androot-N7p-ROM v0.2

[ 146 MB ]

download here

Instructions:

*WARNING: FLASHING THIS DEVICE WILL ERASE YOUR DATA AND APPS!!!!*

Download image.

Rename file to update.img

copy file to root of SD card.

Follow on screen prompt asking if you want to run update image.

Disclaimer:

I am not responsible for bricked devices.

Here's my changes..

Known Issue:

Apps2sd reports SU Binary out of date. Attemps to update this via superuser fails due to cramfs file system.

It's not perfect, but it does work well and I run it as my daily driver on my N7P.

Please give feedback or suggestions! I trust the pro devs could easily help me out with the little things!

Since I'm new to modifying/cooking ROMs, here's my

Questions I have for the devs that cook ROMs all the time

...

(lol):confused::rolleyes::D

Where do I edit the items that show in 'settings > about' in the device?

How do I change the default shortcuts that LauncherPro puts on the dock?

How do I change what icons are default on the home screen?

Where do I put custom wallpapers as part of the rom?

How do I modify Android UI colours?

Can the dialer be removes without losing "contacts"?

How do I create a shortcut to "contacts" without the phone/dialer?

(more to come I'm sure)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sgtfoo:
In Dochoppy's original rom/post he mentions that the device will need to have a serial number starting with YF1011. That stands the same for this rom, as it's derived from his.

Having an invalid update.img firmware file could be due to a number of things, but the one I have here works on my device.

I wish I had more of an answer, but by all means try out the tools for repacking the rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kibmcz:
I had mine half dead for a short bit until i found i could go into a low level bootloader mode and recover it. I am working on getting a the tool/images i used to recover mine uploaded and such.

Download and extract n7p_rescue_kit.zip

Reboot device using paper clip then quickly press and hold reset until you get black screen with usb plugged in

When windows wants driver give it the respective folder for your os (32bit or 64bit) from Drivers folder from the download

Run RK29update.exe if it says "Found RKAndroid Loader Rock Usb" on bottom you are good but if it shows "No Found RKAndroid rock usb" repeat last step.

Either flash all of the default selected items or do just system (since bootloop is in system)

Hope this helps :)

P.S. If you pack then unpack your custom one you can flash JUST system using the tool ;) but be sure to use the offsets that are pre-loaded.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sgtfoo:
use a pin to push the reset button on the back to break out of the boot loop.

If after this your rom still bootloops, try putting a different update.img rom to flash, on to the sd card. Then boot into safe mode by holding all 4 front buttons after boot. the update should be found and installed after that.

Thanks!

I registered just to thank DocHoppy for all his efforts. I have a Nextbook Premium 7 I got for Christmas from Hastings, which fell into the YF09111XXXX batch. I used Wendal Chen's RK29xxImageTools_v2.1 to unpack the firmware upgrade from the nextbookusa site. I then put the Google apks, SuperUser, Rootexplorer, and re-packed it with a custom bootanimation. Because of my serial # I couldn't use DocHoppy rom without getting that "Invalid Update" error, but using their firmware seems to work.

My next goal is to find a way to get the "Accounts & Sync" into the settings! One of my apps is getting an "Error 42" which is an Android Market authentication error... however, other apps have worked without any problems so it's difficult to tell if that's the issue I'm having.
