[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
looping

Get into recovery by power and volume up let loop twice release power only and should put you into recovery. Run update zip or rom zip. If does not and totaly screwed put into download t hug en hit it with odin3.

had to do few times myself when playing with semephore kernals and mosaic8 combos. redownload odin and all files from direct source only. As you see on some mirrors file size different!!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Are you bricked or are you in a boot loop? Boot loops and bricks are two very different things. If you press your power button and absolutely nothing happens, you are bricked. If you press your power button and anything happens, including a boot loop, it should be recoverable. Boot loops are a common occurrence, not a big deal, and recoverable by fixing whatever caused the boot loop (eg incompatible kernel and rom) and flashing again.

It doesn't have to be a corrupt one click that caused problems, it could be a bad USB cord, computer or odin crash, or who knows what else. As long as your phone turns on, get it into download mode with either a button combo or a jig and flash again. I would definitely redownload it just to be safe, but you should be able to reflash.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjtitus098:
Its a boot loop, its not bricked. When I got MobileTechVideos to repair it, it had a faulty pin in the micro usb port so a jig won't work. I can't get into recovery or download mode with any button combo. I ordered a new USB port and will repair it myself. I'm just not sure what keeps screwing it up. I've flashed Odin on my Skyrocket with the same USB cable and PC port, so I'm pretty sure that's not what's screwing it up. I'll just steer clear of using Odin on my captivate after I repair it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Bummer. If you get it fixed and can get into download mode again, flashing gingerbread bootloaders will fix your button combo issues.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] gman87:
Ok what you do is go to your systems folder > media > audio and create folder poweron then rename the sound file you want to PowerOn.ogg and place it into the poweron folder. You should be good to go if it doesn't work then its not supported

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] noob91:
i have a htc touch pro 2 and before i could connect it to computer. now when i try to it tells me instantly that the device cannot be recognized by microsoft on my cpu. i have a toshiba satellite l555 running windows 7. also while i try chrging it it takes forever and if the phone is on it says that my computer doesnt supply enough power to charge it. also says the same thing when its connected to my xbox 360. i just would appreciate any help.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Have you tried a different cable? Sounds like you've tried a different port, considering you plugged it into your 360...

Your USB port might be dying/dead....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] noob91:
I have not tried a different cable yet. I was thinking about gettin one from amazon to try. I hope it's just the cable.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
If you have a PS3, some cameras, etc use the exact same plug. Anything mini-USB - even tho it doesn't look like it matches up, it'll work.

I know, doesn't look like the plug will fit - it will!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] noob91:
Mine don't look like that. It looks like this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Yes, I know. I was trying to coax you into using other cables that are around your house that have this similar plug. The 'default' HTC cable looks like the one you posted, but I wanted you to be aware that other cables will work just fine - like the miniUSB standard cable I posted above!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] noob91:
Oh ok. Well I guess I could try a few. See what happens.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MarkoFaca:
I have the same problem with my TP2.

Tried different cables, different computers, but problem is still there.

I can't connect TP2 with computer, can't sync with Outlook, at least I can flash ROM from mSD card :)

Any ideas, solutions, maybe there's some fix for this issue?!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Has it ever worked? Perhaps it's a hardware issue with the plug. I assume it charges OK?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MarkoFaca:
^ Yes, it worked well in the past. Charging is OK, wiht AC adapter and with USB cable connected to computer. Only ActiveSync doesn't work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr.horndoctor:
Have you guys tried Deleting any/all Partnerships and then uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Mobile Device Center on your PC and then trying again?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MarkoFaca:
Yes :)

I even reinstaled the system, Win7, WinXP, changed cables, changed computers, even changed ROMs (Energy, Jackos...), still nothing :)

Weird thing is that charging works just fine, but sync don't...?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr.horndoctor:
I suspect you have a hardware problem with the port on your device. Maybe use a magnifying glass and look at the brass pins inside the port and see if you see any bent or missing pins. You could have two pins touching that could be shorting. Maybe the only solution is repair/replacement. :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
I'd say that is your best bet. It's entirely possible that the pins for charging (only 2) are fine, while the remainder (I think there's a total of 11?) or a portion of the remainder of the pins are messed up...

Good luck!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MarkoFaca:
I tried with MG, but everything seems to be OK, all pins are there :)

Oh well, at least it's not the other way around - I can sync but I can't charge :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ccengineer:
Try to turn the high speed network thingy off, in your USB connection on your phone. I forgot what it is exactly called but something of that sort.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr.horndoctor:
Oh, good thinking!

Yeah, try going into Settings and uncheck the box that says Enable Faster Connections. It's in Activesync or USB to PC settings.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MarkoFaca:
Sorry, guys, but I tried that first: Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC, uncheked the box "Enable faster data syncronization", still nothing :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ccengineer:
When you connect your phone to the computer, does it even recognize it, I mean does your computer detect that something got connected to the usb? Were you always plugging it in to the same USB port on your computer?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] VitezKoja:
I HAD the same problem-charging was ok, but no sync. Well...

First of all, check your cables (my TP2 won't work with cables from my old TYTN II). Use cables for particular model, those contacts can be tricky. Now, in your phone's USB to PC settings uncheck "enable faster data sync". It worked for me. Now phone syncs, no problem. When pc starts recognizing your new device, phone will use 3g connection to download some 11MB of drivers, so you must have some credits in order to connect to 3g. Now it works like a charm, no problems whatsoever...

If your PC recognizes the device, but doesn't sync, try this: when connected go to your PHONE's active sync and sync it from there. Worked with me once I had that "issue"...

[G1 Android Development] frankdrey:
I've been trying to get the source for Cyanogenmod 6 but I always get connection errors on downloading kernel source

I thought the servers were back up?

Edit:

I fixed it by replacing "git://android.git.kernel.org" with "https://android.googlesource.com/" in android/system/.repo/manifest.xml and it seems to be working now! No more errors!:D
[G1 Android Development] I_Cornholio:
Try changing all the "git://" URLs in .repo/manifest.xml to "http://". Worked for me.
[G1 Android Development] frankdrey:
Ok thanks I will try it when I can use the computer

Edit: Now I'm getting a "error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 405"

We'll see if it finishes.

Edit 2: I replaced "git://android.git.kernel.org/" with "https://android.googlesource.com/" and its flying now:D It works! Thanks for leading me to replacing the URL though!:)
[G1 Android Development] I_Cornholio:
Haha no problem. :D
[G1 Android Development] frankdrey:
Ok so I got a buncha errors downloading alsa related stuff so I removed them from the manifest.xml

Hopefully there are more basic sound drivers:P

At least so I have some sound

Looking on github, it looks like alsa is only available for gingerbread now

Edit: Forget it. There's too much missing stuff

You're going to need to give more information. What phone do you have, for starters? Once you give that information, we can probably help you get root to use any of various internet sharing apps and/or flash a ROM with tethering ability enabled.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemmy_0:
Hello!

I have an NTT Docomo branded Galaxy Nexus.

Wanted to use a roaming sim so I needed to unlock it.

Checked some sites and finally decided to use the service from this site:

http://samsungimeiunlock.com/

I payed around $32 for the code(depends on which carrier your handset is locked to).

I would have happily donated it to a team who can sim-unlock our phones but I did not have the time to wait since I badly needed to use my roaming sim.

I received the codes in around 8 hrs.

First time using the code worked without problems.

I am not in any way connected to the site I mentioned above.

I just want to help those who are doubting online sites that provide unlock codes.

I guarantee the one I listed above works, and again, I am not in any way connected to the site.

Hope this helps and clears some doubts.

Peace yah all and enjoy your GNs!

P.S. - I unlocked the bootloader, rooted and flashed stock Google ICS 4.0.2 (not Docomo image) prior to inputting the code. Not sure if it would matter though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cordell507:
If you had unlocked your bootloader then flashed a custom ROM then their would be no need to buy an unlock code would their
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemmy_0:
of course there is.

unlocked bootloader is not the same as sim-unlocked/sim-free
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
You should Google 2 things and read.

1. "Unlock bootloader"

2. "Unlock sim"

Sent from Galaxy Nexus (GSM)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] K.AuthoR:
I'm curious about one thing. Obviously I don't expect you to send me a copy of your unlock code, since I have a CDMA version and it won't do me any good. I'm just curious about the actual process of using it. Do you just punch in a bunch of numbers into the dialer, or what? Like what is the actual process to do this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Turn off phone, insert foreign SIM, turn on phone, phone will ask for unlock code. 99% of GSM phones are like this.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EVOXGSR:
hey guys quick question. i have the gsm version unlocked pentaband. will this work with ntt's network okay? 3g and hspa+? i dont know if their frequency is part of this gsm unlocked one.

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemmy_0:
as nxt mentioned, just insert a SIM that isn't from the network your handset is locked to.

it will ask for the unlock code after booting up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemmy_0:
sim-unlocking doesn't change any of your phone's capabilites. it just lets you use other sim cards, including your original one
[General Questions and Answers] scoot05redss:
So recently, for some reason, my Android Market has stopped displaying all apps in the "My Apps" section. I get this message on the "My Apps" section, " Apps and games owned by this account will appear here." I'll post a screen shot of the error if the need be. I've tried lots of things. I've cleared the app data through settings, I've gone as far as to completely wipe the phone, formatting the entire thing and restarting from scratch. My apps were displayed under "My Apps" For about 25mins and as I was reinstalling them, it happened again. I went back and removed the last few apps that I had installed to no avail. I've changed ROMS to see if that would fix it and still same things. It appears to have something to do with my google account. I've read that there is no way to remove a phone and start over as far as your google account tied to it. You can only hide them. I'm at a lose. I can still search and install apps from the market, and it even updates those apps online in the market. But I can view them on my phone to see if they have updates or to uninstall through the market. Hopefully someone can help! I'm exhausted from wiping and reinstalling. I thought it may have something to do with my TB I was restoring so I went through and manually added each app back ( ALL 127 OF THEM) And after about 30, same error. Thanks is advance.
[General Questions and Answers] j@nus:
Have you tried Market Fix in Titanium Backup (Menu>Market Tools). Try Market Doctor and if that fails, Destroy all links and try Market Doctor again.
[General Questions and Answers] scoot05redss:
Thanks for the reply. I do not have the pro version of TB to try that. But if I'm sure it'll work, I can swing the money to get it. But there's a another piece to this puzzle. Yesterday at work I was given a new phone. A Droid Incredible 2. I logged into my Gmail account and installed a few apps that I needed, and about 2 hours in. I'm getting he same error on that phone as well. Could here be a problem with my Gmail account? I'm just not sure if running TB pro on one phone is gonna fix both.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
Does the Galaxy Nexus Support exFAT file format / system?

I did a search but ppl only vaguely mentioned exFAT.

If exFAT is not supported, has anyone tried making ext4 drives using this?

http://shuffleos.com/1847/ext2fsd-read-write-ext4-ext3-ext2-partitions-windows/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clancy_s:
I dunno about xfat but I'bee unable to get ext2fsd on Win&64 bit to work properly with my ext4 partitions (64 bit Ubuntu). Sometimes it can read it, mostly it hangs while I'm waiting for it to open.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
That's lame. Android needs to add exFAT support or create ext4 drivers for Windows.

Or else, Windows Tablet 8 is going to kill the Android tablet market!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DivinityCycle:
The Galaxy Nexus doesn't function as a USB storage device when attached to a computer. It communicates via MTP instead. This renders the underlying filesystem of the partitions on the phone itself somewhat irrelevant. No, no one has hacked in a way to force the phone to act as a USB drive yet.

Sooo, in light of that, what are you talking about?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
The ability to read USB Flash drives attached to the device. It won't read exFAT and getting Windows to read/write ext4 is a big PITA.

I just ordered a Samsung OTG cable so I can use my 64gb USB Flash drive as extended storage for the phone. But I have a lot of video files larger than 4GB that won't work with FAT32.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Clancy_s:
Reported to work with 4.0.2 using stickmount, dunno what filesystems they had on the sticks. I'd be inclined to try ntfs after fat32.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HimWill:
I'm new here too,but I might have a simple solution to question #1.If you're "dropping WiFi" at home,check the channel your router is using and see if a neighbor (or two or three)are also using that channel."Sniffer" programs are around that will give you the info.Try to set yours up on a "clear" channel.Worked for me when the neighborhood "filled up" with routers all set to channel 6.Went to ch.3 and problem solved.

Good luck.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WyldWolf:
Thanks but as I stated only after the manual nooter is the wifi dropping - no need to get out wireshark when 4 other wifi devices including a non-rooted nook in the same room without dropping but thanks for the suggestion!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WyldWolf:
BTW, I should ask are you rooted and which version, etc?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobstro:
I did not experience this issue. In fact, on B&N 1.4.1, my wifi was more dependable than on CyanogenMod. I suspect a lot of has to do with specifics on your wifi setup, including router make, security used and so forth. You could try tweaking parameters to see if it helps. Was it dropping as much before you ran MN? I wouldn't expect what was done with MN to make a difference. Are you using Dalingrin's kernel or anything similar?

Hmm. I never got around to trying Google Voice, and have no use for Facebook, so can't say for sure those were there. I've since nuked 1.4.1, so can't test now either. I can say that I had well over 100 apps that I commonly use on CM loaded, and didn't find any that I weren't visible in Market without any tweaks. It did take a long time for Market to update, but after that, it worked smoothly. You might try accessing the Market via the web interface and see if those apps will install from there. I did that a few times. Maybe that trips something?

My power consumption was initially very good, but after a week or so, I started seeing the battery drain go to 3-5% per hour. Unfortunately, 1.4.1 hobbled a lot of troubleshooting tools, so I wasn't able to nail down the culprit. This is what ultimately drove me to abandon 1.4.1 for CM again.

I did try renaming phone.apk and others that have been recommended, but my NC seemed to get very unstable thereafter. Lots of spontaneous reboots and the like. I put them back and really didn't see a big difference one way or the other that I can attribute to these. From everything I've read, they're not likely to cause noticeable drain, but some other standard functions depend on them.

Cost is probably the main factor. Netflix from B&N supposedly supports HD while the Market version does not. On a 7 inch screen, I couldn't care less. Netflix off of the Market looks pretty good, so I'm happy.

What you do to stock is pretty much independent of dual-booting.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WyldWolf:
Bobstro,

Thanks so much for the input! As for the wifi, it does seem very specific to after I ran the MN on 1.41, in fact it never once dropped and I went back to stock 1.41 for the last day and haven't seen it drop again (my wife's is stock 1.41 and doesn't drop either when my MN does so unless it's a hardware issue I'm guessing it's something in the MN process, driver, etc.)

One weird thing I did have happen and searching found a couple references but nothing definitive was using CWM 3.2.0.1 flashing the 1.3 stock after formatting system, data, cache multiple times was my touchscreen did not work. I even re-downloaded the 1.3 from xda must have flashed 6 times never worked. Then downloaded a 1.41 posted on one of the recovery xda threads and lo and behold my touchscreen worked. Also, unlike the 1.3-1.41 upgrade, when I flashed right to 1.41 a couple things came up that didn't after upgrading mine and my wife's to 1.41, namely netflix right on the home screen touch to install, and the nook friends app right on the home screen.

Have you come across anything that would indicate why my touchscreen went dead no matter how many times I rebuild the CWM card, formatted the nook partitions correctly and flashed without error? It really made me worry I had a bad unit but like I said worked out of box, worked after 1.41 upgrade, worked after latest MN, only once I returned to 1.3 stock did it die until flashing 1.41 directly.

Interesting about the market, I did have thousands of apps just not some of the most common big ones and I did try through browser it told me facebook was incompatible with my device which led me to all the "hack the dpi, props file, etc." threads I just didn't want to be part of a minority for for some unknown reason had to hack workarounds if 99% of folks running the MN could simply install facebook and google voice from market without workarounds.

Thanks again!

Edit: on the dual boot I thought there was a way to install CWM or something to internal to allow dual internal booting from stock (nootered) and CM7 - I'll keep looking.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobstro:
I'm happy to help where I can. The smart folks here on XDA have helped me tremendously, so I trying to pay it forward as best I can!

EDIT: Sorry about that strange post. I wanted to point you to the thread about the hardware having changed with more recent NC versions. 1.4.1 includes the newer drivers. Depending on where you get your older versions from, they may or may not work.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WyldWolf:
Well that 'kinda" makes me feel better that I at least don't have bad hardware, had I known the 1.3 that's posted was "different" then the 1.3 that came on my newer unit apparently must have had the newer screen drivers I would have backed it up - surprised someone hasn't posted it. I mean, mine came with 1.3 installed and the screen worked so it must have had the newer driver until I wiped it, right?

Also, do you have the links you referred to for the screen issues thread?

Thanks again!
