You guys do realize that you play more for a plan that gets you discounts on phones right?
[HTC Inspire 4G] sRs DoLLaR mEnU:
I dropped my phone in light water and the touchscreen hasn't been working will replacing it fix it
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
possibly. might even need to dry out. put it in a bag of dried rice and ziplock it in there for about 2 days. make sure all the covers are off that u can take off. if you are sure its dried, it could be the display, could be the digitizer, the controllers. its like diagnosing a car, cant do that over the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] sRs DoLLaR mEnU:
Should I risk fixing it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
It is impossible to say if it is worth the risk. As Darunion said the phone may dry out on its own. And it may not. It may just be the Digitizer and it could be other items. Problems could arise weeks and even months down the road. That is why it is a big deal not to get your phone wet.

Personally if it was my phone, it would sit in a bag of rice on a warm window sill for at least a week before I would even think of putting that battery back in. Any condensation on the boards and you put the battery back in and electonic components can fry.

And even then it would be trial and error getting it fixed. Hopefully it might be the digitizer then. But what if it isn't?
[HTC Inspire 4G] sRs DoLLaR mEnU:
This happened 2 days ago and it was taken out this afternoon it turns on fine but touch doesn't work
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
agreed, you could be causing additional damage to the phone. its likely not dried out. just because you can turn it on doesnt mean you should. i would still use the mentioned drying technique and then try it again later. other than that, we cant troubleshoot this problem over the internet. this isnt meant as an insult, but if you arent sure you can fix it, likely you wont. Not much we can do for you other than what we said to try for drying it out. sorry, that really sucks :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] sRs DoLLaR mEnU:
I used to repair iPhones is the inspire similar to it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] automati:
Swapping the digitizer on the iPhone 3G/3Gs was incredibly simple: two screws and two cables and the whole digi+LCD was out. On the iPhone 4/4S it's considerably more involved. It seems like the Inspire 4G falls somewhere in between... not as simple as 3G, but probably easier than 4. Check YouTube; I'm sure there are video guides.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
I guess I'm not completely convinced my phone is dead here...might be hanging onto a thread though.. But I thought I'd ask you guys to see if anyone has any input..

As stated previously, after replacing my digitizer I had my phone back to an operable state, but there were some spots that the digitizer wasn't working, so I took it apart one more time to make sure the small ribbon cable connecting the digitizer to the LCD had a tight connection. When I put everything back together, I got no display - only backlight. I've taken it apart 6 or 7 times since then and can't see anything that doesn't look right. When I unplug the cable from the LCD to the board, I don't even get a backlight. When I connect that cable, I get backlight but no display. The phone is booting and the digitizer seems to be responsive after booting, but no display. Is there something else I should be looking at? Obviously the cable from the LCD to the board gives the LCD power, but what controls the picture to the LCD?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
The cable coming out the side of the LCD has connections for the picture, the backlight, and for the digitizer too (since the digitizer is connected to the LCD and then the LCD transfers the signal to the motherboard).

I repaired quite a few phones where the digitizer did not function correctly or only partially and it turned out to be the cable on the LCD as the issue. If you are doing the work yourself and you have a few extra dollars to spend then buy the lcd and digitizer already assembled. Something like this. Much easier.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/LCD-Display...923565?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2c6202fb2d

It is a pain in the butt removing all the adhesive between the LCD and Digitizer and then you also have to have the correct double sided tape to reassemble the 2. Also trying to pry the 2 apart can damage the LCD very easily. Installing the LCD and Digitizer as one unit is much easier and much faster. Plus it gives a better fit. I have seen quite a few phones where the digitizer was replaced by itself and it was not properly attached with the correct adhesive tape. The glass was sticking up above the outside frame of the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
Yea that's what I should have done in the first place. It was a pain in the butt trying to get the Screen/Dig off of the LCD, and the LCD off of the frame. And now they're not back on anywhere near as well, the screen kind of falls off sometimes. I don't know if I'm gonna spend anymore money trying to fix this thing. I want a Vivid anyway :)

[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
I'm curious as to what would happen if I hit factory reset on a rooted phone with updated firmware and customer ROM's, kernels, etc on it.

Would I lose anything like root, s-off, superuser, etc etc etc?

What would happen to the ROM?

I've wondered this for a while but never had the stones to just try it.
[HTC Sensation] SoapMacTavish3:
Your phone will erase its data ... It should -SHOULD- have the same effect as a full wipe+reflashing the ROM ( never tried but I think that's it, not sure ).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matdev:
My Galaxy Nexus system partition appears to be missing Is there anyway to recreate it?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
What makes you think it's missing? What you were doing to your phone when this happened? Got Nandroid backup? More details, please..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matdev:
When I attempt to mount it CWM states that it is unable to mount and when you run the log it states that the volume does not exist.

I was attempting to install Bugless Beast from Rom Manager download and it looked to me that it was successful and I rebooted and I was stuck at the Google lock screen. I have a android backup but when I attempt to restore it CWM states that it is unable to mount and erase /system which is what leads me to believe its missing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Have you tried to flash one of factory images? Which version of GN you have? GSM/CDMA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matdev:
Yeah I have tried all the images. I have a CDMA model.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Sorry, i'll give up here. Perhaps someone else can help you.

PS. Just a thought. What if you could find .PIT file and and flash factory images from ODIN with "Re-Partition" option ticked?

Just be warned, on SGSII forums i've seen few people crying about bricked phones after doing so.

[Kindle Fire General] mamdouh2012:
I have a problem with kindle fire, as i installed TWRIP program to try to install android 4.0 ice cream sandwich, but i failed, and screen remain to TWRIP software every time i try to boot the fire, at this step i am able to mount kindle fire, and what i did also is flashing KF (i made every kind of flash), i noticed that when i mounted KF all system files are deleted!, i tried to return back to my old software by downloading KF firmware update 6.2.1 and transfer it to kf, then install it, after that, and from this time the KF stuck at KF logo every time i start it, also it can't be mounted anymore, when i plug KF into the pc, it show me removable device but not accessible, i tried kindle fire utility and KindleUnbrickUtilityV1.0.zip but every order the software is waiting for the device and remain as it is, it seems that my KF bricked forever because i tried everything and it is now a challenge to return KF to it's original state or install android and make it workable again, can any one help me please?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
you have "kindle fire" logo - static - not animated - right ?

then it should be in fastboot mode

try to update the drivers manually - the right driver for this mode is "android adb interface"

now you should be able to communicate

try "fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" -> it should return "kindle"

then try to follow this thread starting at point 4:

[Kindle Fire General] mamdouh2012:
Thank you

Thank you for replay, but i don't know where i should wright this command for fastboot, is it at command prompt? and should i wright also the drive letter for kindle fire? please advice and don't be annoyed from my simple question because i did not try to wright commands before but i usually use KF utilities!
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
a bit more information would be helpful:

what computer (os/bit) ?

to start recovering some things would be good to talk from the same things:

if you allready have the newest kfu (0.9.2) please move it to c:\ and rename it from "kindle fire utility" to "kfu"

now you can open a (elevated) command prompt and cd to c:\kfu\tools

here are all necessary commands

this is where you write the commands and leave this window open - you will need it all the time

now you should be able to follow my last post

I have been trying to figure this out for the past few days and I am stuck. I would like to create a simple updateable zip which I can run after flashing a new rom. The important bits are

delete("/system/app/Bubbles.apk");

When I went to run it and learned this method is way odd and depricated.

Next I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=903598 and I get an installation aborted message when I run the zip.

Lastly I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966468 and I get the same installation aborted message.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djmcnz:
Off the top of my head, I'd have to look later, isn't it "delete_file"?

Perhaps I'm wrong.

But what are you getting in the recovery.log (/tmp/recovery.log).

Also, have you mounted /system before you try to delete the files?

Perhaps post your whole script?

Hi guys, please help me!

i have tried to flash xxkpe and the xxkpq but it no boots!

Do you know any solution?

Have you tried anything such as flashing another phone's ROM? Can you access Download Mode?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] coolpix90:
It had froyo stock rom...it's my sister's phone and doesn't boot today...i don't kmow why...i tried to flash another stock but nothing, should i need to change kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] hjs89:
How have you tried to flash? If you can boot in download mode (Vol Down + Home Button (the central one) + Power button) you'll be able to flash the phone with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
you say "suddenly stopped", and it won't boot, and she has the same phone as you? try swapping batteries first ;)

if nothing is working at all and it won't go to download or recovery and it's 100% stock and still under warranty, the service center will be the best solution if swapping batteries doesn't make it work (dead battery?)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] coolpix90:
it swich on but stops in boot animation of samsung...is the phone in warranty if i have put another stock rom like xxkpq or not?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] coolpix90:
The recvery shows while i'm trying to flash another stock...

"your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format anc reboot actions."

and later "E:format_volume:rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblkOp3"

"data wipe failed"

those are the red one in the recovery
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
that's the one I hear happens all the time to those with certain hardware errors. just go tell 'em you were flashing through kies when it broke ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] coolpix90:
if the homescrren doesn't apear the kies don't work...or not?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
that would be my guess. I don't use kies, just installed it on my computer since it seems necessary in order to get the usb drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rubenroy:
kies wont work until the phone has completely booted
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cike:
if you can go to recovery then you can do dalvik and cache wipe.... then try to go download mode and flash using odin start with KPE or KPH (i used KPH) before going to anything newer
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamerjunglejosh:
I have a Samsung Captivate, and keep seeing people talk about CF-Root(I believe it's a program that roots so correct me if I'm wrong). I rooted my Samsung Captivate using Superoneclick. I want to flash Onecosmic's ICS rom for the Samsung Captivate, but people keep mentioning CF-Root. Do I have to unroot, and then re root using CF-Root? Or Since I now have CWM on Android 2.2(rooted stock) can I simply flash CM7, and then flash One Cosmic's Rc3.1 rom. Also can I flash CM7 from Android 2.2, or do I have to down date android back to eclair and then flash CM7. Thank everyone so much, and please help me move this to the correct area if it has already been made before. I searched on XDA and found nothing about "rooting different methods". Thanks again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Rooted is rooted. If you have cwm then it doesn't matter what os you're on, in fact if you would have just flashed a custom kernel with Odin that has cwm compiled into it you wouldn't even need to root to flash a ROM.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Like Studacris said, root is root. You can also flash CM7 from Froyo. HOWEVER, if you don't already have CWM recovery (which is not the same as being rooted, and I suspect you don't actually have), you won't be able to flash CM7 from where you are now.

If you actually have CWM, you can just flash CM7 from 2.2. If you don't, follow the instructions here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Captivate:_Full_Update_Guide

to get CM7 and go from there.

Studacris is right, flashing a kernel (any kernel) with CWM from Odin or Heimdall is the easiest way to go, and then use that kernel's CWM to flash from there. Because of Froyo's 3e recovery, rooting it doesn't gain you much in the way of flashing ROMs because the stock recovery isn't going to let you flash anything anyway, rooted or not.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamerjunglejosh:
I am rooted, and I actually do have CWM installed( 3 button combo works), but do I need to install CWM the way it says, or is using rom manager to do it ok?. I've rooted 3 inspires and have put the Revolution HD Rom on them. Just didn't want to mess up this Samsung. Thanks for the helpful comments.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
ROM manager does more harm than good. Just get cwm and your golden. (by update.zip or kernel with it baked in. 3e recovery won't use update.zip)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
This is what I was trying to explain. Just because you can get to the recovery console does not mean you have clockworkmod, unfortunately.

You have to install it the way the directions say to. You can try using ROM Manager, but it won't work on 2.2. You will get a signature verification error and it will stop. You can try it if you want, you won't mess anything up, it just won't work.

If you really think you already have it, reboot into recovery. If you have it, it will say "ClockworkMod Recovery Version x.x.xxx" across the top. If it does, just flash CM7 from there with the "Install Zip From SD" option. If it says "Samsung 3e Recovery" and doesn't have that option, you don't have CWM and you won't be able to flash anything from there, including a CWM installer.

As far as ROM Manager is concerned, I would recommend steering clear of it in general. It worked well in 2.1 but you can't use it to install CWM in anything since then and you tend to get odd behavior with it when using it to do anything else. Follow the ClockworkMod directions, I have used them several times with no issues.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamerjunglejosh:
Thanks apbthe3, you were 100% correct. I see that I have to flash a new kernel with CWM built in, thanks. I thought that it looked differennt than the CWM ON MY INSPIRE so I checked and it didn't load up CWM. Thanks again.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] O-H-I-O:
RC- the first stable release candidate (stable but 4g doesn't work)

nightlies- contain the latest updates to the CM7 Rom, all the new ones are generally very stable with a few known bugs.

I'm on nightly 25 and having no problems other than a few known bugs (volume on incoming calls, etc.)

[HTC Incredible S] 0ndr4:
I have flashed to ARHD 2.1.3 my Inc S and now if I plug phone to USB in my PC, a "Connect to PC" windows appears. When I choose option (e.g. Internet pass-through) and tap Done, a moment later the same Connect to PC window appears again and I must choose option again. Then I am connected.

But it´s interesting when I choose connect as Disk drive option, this window isn´t showing again.

On my stock ROM, there wasn´t this problem. I have turned off USB debugging and fastboot USB, but that not solve the problem.

Can somebody help me with this? It´s really annoying.
[HTC Incredible S] vinboy3:
Maybe you can check your auto-play function at windows?
[HTC Incredible S] 0ndr4:
I have it on. But I don´t think that´s the problem. I had auto-play function on with my previous stock ROM and I don´t have this problem.

So I suspect ARHD ROM (but don´t know anyone else with this ROM who have this problem) or the extra ADB drivers which was installed over existing HTC Sync driver when I get new recovery from fastboot USB to phone.
[HTC Incredible S] pro0001:
ARHD 2.1.3 I have flashed, have not same issue. Usually the usb cable is unstable maybe cause this issue. But when you change the connection mode, it's gone, maybe you can flash again with clear-flashing.

oh... I flashed it 4 times. Super wipe in recovery and flash ARHD.
[HTC Incredible S] Matain:
Try to flash other ROM, some rom has this bug
[HTC Incredible S] 0ndr4:
I was thinking about installing another ROM (besides ARHD was in my mind RunnyDrOiD or CoreDroid ROMs), but ARHD seems better optimized, since there is no graphic edits in system and it basicly stayed on stock ROM with performance optimization.

I try another ROMs, but as pro0001 sayd, he don´t have this problem with ARHD.

i rebuilt each apk with the same mods

but different colors
