Any ideas? This is driving me crazy.....

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Fastboot needs command line parameters. You can't just click it open. Run cmd then CD to your sdk directory and run fastboot flash recovery (image_file)
[HTC Rezound] clclark7:
Is there anyway this can be explained more. Still new to it all and learning!

I really appreciate all the input!
[HTC Rezound] clclark7:
Sorry for the ignorance as I'm still learning this whole HTC thing. I came from the Droid X. Ugh, what a change!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Theres a good walkthrough in the development section. Here's the short version.

First off its very similar to unlocking(same tools needed)

1) copy your recovery image to wherever you have fastboot on your PC(for this example say c:\android

2) reboot your phone into hboot(power down, then power up holding power + volume down)

3) choose fastboot on the phone

4) plug the phone into your PC

5) open a command prompt on your PC

6) change directory to c:\android(or where you have fastboot)

7) run "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img " (where recovery.img = your recovery file

8) reboot

Done

I'm going to thank you for this, too. I don't know if it's because I know how to do this now after doing it so much over the past week or so, but that was the easiest explanation I've seen of flashing a recovery. Nice job :D
[HTC Rezound] clclark7:
This is a great explanation but this is what it says:

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery reco

very.img

error: cannot load 'recovery.img'

Now when you say put it in the same directory does that mean the same folder?

Thanks!

I don't know very well in deep Android os, I'm wondering if the apps that automatic close unused process can help the phone and the battery or only damage the normal kernel work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
NO. Don't use auto task killers. Please.

If you MUST know whats running, use something like WatchDog, which lets you keep an eye on wary tasks, but doesn't kill anything unless you specifically say so. Although you can do this manually with the built-in Android one, WatchDog gives you extra tools to use.

Task Killers have been horribly misused and not at all required since Android 2.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Nay on task killer. Android does pretty well on it's own.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Auto killer isn't a task killer. It tweaks android's default values for killing tasks.

This is the only "task killer" I would say doesn't hurt the system itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ves:
Check the dev options in settings. You can adjust some of the settings there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Yes. Let's go "optimizing" the system by killing tasks and tweaking system thresholds without any metrics what so ever, besides saying "it feels smoother" (after a full reboot with no new apps loaded, but lets not mention that. it sounds less awesome).

That sounds all so very scientific and I am all for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Umm...there are a number of programs in the Market that can show you cache hits and page faults, etc. It's not that hard to get some measurements for what effects these tweaks are having.

My Epic won't turn on in any way. I can't get into download mode, can't get into recovery, can't boot in a standard way either.

I was in the middle of trying to Odin back to stock, and it wouldn't finish the download mode. I tried to flash one of the EI22 tars on the forums here, and it wouldn't finish. I tried the standard stock EC05, and it wouldn't finish either. I had to pull the battery/cord multiple times. I tried with different ports on my PC, different times using Odin, everything. Nothing worked.

So at some point after all this, it refused to go into download mode. In fact, it refuses to do anything at all.

Anyone got any advice? I'm at wits end.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
Take the battery off. Make sure no cords are connected to the phone. Keep the battery off for about 5mins. Press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds. The put the battery back in and try booting into download mode.

Before u do any of these steps. What data cable are u using? The one that came with the phone, or another one?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
What version of odin are u using? Try using a different version of odin.

Stock data cable.

Tried the battery out thing, but it didn't work.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
Ok...so that u know, u can't use the stock data cable, its generic...u need a thicker cable , like a blackberry one. Not for to get ur phone back to life. On the back of ur phone with the battery cover off. There is a tiny whole, that's a reset button. With only the battery in the phone, place a paperclip in that hold and press it for 30 seconds. Then pull out the battery, then put battery back in. Try booting into download mode. See what that does
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
This is a hard reset.... it should work.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Lol the mythological hole is back!!!!! Just leave the battery out for a bit and hold the power button with the battery out for about 20 secs to get any left over charge out... with battery and sd card out hold down the power button and 1 key and plug into your computer while holding down and that should get you into download mode.... for future reference I have taken MANY epics (over 30) and there is NO BUTTON under that hole... no spot for a button at all... there is no hard reset and this is a myth... the people that have said they have gotten their phones back working after pressing this non existent button only got it back into download mode because they left their battery out long enough for it to reset itself... the "button" had nothing to do with it... disagree? Take your phone apart and take a pictue of the button... not the hole but the actual button... I guarantee you its not there!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
Interesting... I have never done that form of a hard reset, but a friend of mine has. There is videos on this all over youtube on this. But if u there isn't, than I really can't argue with that. Since I have not done it myself.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Watch those videos and send me 1 where they take the phone apart and actually sow you the button... its not there trust me... that being said though, it is extremely hard to completely brick this phone... not impossible but damn near... almost everything you do to this phone it can be recovered if you follow the sticky in developement entitled how to recover from a soft brick or bring it back from the brink... go there and do everything it suggests... btw please search before posting a new thread as this is in a sticky and tons of other threads... please search first!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
Okay so I left the battery and microsd card out of the phone for like 3 hours, came back and put it all in and it still won't turn on.

Is it really no good?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
No what you want to do is leave the battery and sd card out and press and hold the power and 1 button and plug into your computer to get into download mode. The odin the ec05.tar with victory.pit and check repartition and reboot and you are good to go
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Should have done this from the begining you take the battery and sdcard and plug in the phone to the computer using the computar as the power source and go into download works almost everytime unless you slid brick it. If this doesn't work go online and buy a download mode jig there like 8 bucks or you can find a tutorial to make one..... this will reset the odin counter ( I think) and jump you into download mode.

Guess what gentlemen, that method didn't work for me before. I had to literally keep the battery out for awhile and then place it back in. I will tell u why. U don't know how stable the power source is on a usb port. Take a cable and plug it into a camera or something, start wiggling it just a little..it will start to flicker (turn on and off)...reason being...wear and tear on the port. That's why I never state that method.. I say this to u with all respect given.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
And the port can send a micro-static charge through the cable and right to the phone.. (google it) u will see what I'm talking about.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhall:
Thanks for all the replies guys. I tried this to no avail either. I took the battery/sdcard out of the phone and left it for a minute, then held the power button down for 30 seconds or so... then I let that go and pressed and held 1 and power. Then I plugged in the USB cable. Nothing.

Tried plugging it in, then pressing 1 and power. Nothing still.

Phone still refuses to turn on. I'm going to leave it for an hour or two and give it some more time to discharge the capacitors, but I fear it may be bricked (something I thought pretty much impossible for an Epic 4G)

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmaster1:
When ur phone doesn't turn on, its bricked. That explains how to unbrick it. If ur phone won't turn on at all no matter what...u may have to take it to sprint for a relacement. That's ur last and final option.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Yep if you have tried the method that I have explained and you can't get it to download mode you may have completely bricked it... just bring the phone to sprint and tell the you accepted the ota and it didn't turn on afterwards...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Wrong.... you can always look for people who will unbrick it.... solid brick.... I forget how much but its an option if sprint won't replace it for such and such... these people hook up the computer to the phones board its crazy ill have to find it. This bumps it back into download mode and then they put you back on stock.

thanks in advance

Hey, just read this on Android Central: an email has gone out to a few members of the Xoom section on the Motorola Owner's Forums talking of a new project.

Did anybody get a copy of the email? Does anybody know what's going on?

I first read it here.
[Xoom General] ahmed007:
Thank god some update
[Xoom General] dbam987:
Its certainly great that the Xoom is getting ICS. Kind of wish it was released back in November alongside the Nexus. The Xoom is a Google Experience Device, so I'm wondering why Moto/Goog didn't get this up and running sooner.

Hopefully the 3G/LTE version get the update very soon after!
[Xoom General] shakuyi:
I got the email this morning going to re-register when I get home :-)
[Xoom General] stonefeet:
my guess, to merge in the camera and microphone drivers, the xoom 4.0.3 aosp was released what 2 weeks ago and they are already going to test this in a time where nobody does any work, the team eos rom was awesome and i think we should all be very very excited for our xooms that we paid so dearly for to finally work the way they were intended.

wild guess, 2 to 4 weeks before it's out for the 3g/4g lte xooms or at least i hope!
[Xoom General] One4mNoWhere:
any update as to wat this is? So we all can return to stock and join if it's ICS
[Xoom General] OriginalMemnock:
My guess is that if this is indeed ICS, then Motorola will release the much needed drivers for the camera and other things and the devs working on the ICS roms can just incorporate those into their builds and there will be no need for going back to stock.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Plus, be careful that future updates don't somehow lock down the bootloader. Some may not care, but I won't ever willingly go back to stock.

So I'm guessing Canadian xoom owners don't get a shot at this? It's odd because our tablets and OS's are pretty much identical. Crazy why Canada gets shutout as it should be North American tablets.
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
The OS isn't. That's why we got 3.2 ages after the US. Actually, did they ever release 3.2 for the Canadian Xoom? I wouldn't know as I reflashed with the US ROM when I got sick of waiting for 3.1.

The Canadian ROM has some US-only stuff removed such as Amazon MP3, and there were a few other differences too (3.0 had a whole different update checking module for instance).

Right now our best chance is for Team EOS to get their hand on it, be able to lift the missing binaries from it, and get us a 99% working ICS before Moto does (and probably months before Canadian owners gets an official ICS update as well).

Okay, locally there are a few prepaid plans that I'm considering to use an iphone 4 or 4s on. They are prepaid though :eek: never have used prepaid before.

From my research I know you can use the iphone 4 or 4s on straight talk from walmart

$40 for unlimited talk/text and data (most users report 2gb plus or minus cap and if you go over your service will be terminated.

local company selling Sky view wireless?? Never heard of them before but apparently you can go either cdma or gsm on this.

(Att)gsm version: $60 unlimited talk/text plus 2gb data thats it

CDMA: $50 unlimited everything, apparently no cap on data can use Iphone 4s from sprint on this.

Looking for feedback on people who have tried a prepaid service, tried skyview or straight talk. Currently using an iphone 4 unlocked on local gsm carrier recieving only 2g speeds :mad: May switch back to android and get a 4g phone. Note that I only pay $55 month for 500 min and unlimited text/data, no contract month to month! Typically a 5gb data cap then drop down to 2g speeds. Thanks for input
