[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SortingBeans:
Nope. Didn't have to tell them anything. It wouldn't leave the bootloader screen. So I did both types of factory resets. They only way thy find out that I rooted it is when it gets back to Asus, they are somehow to get a computer to recognize it (mine won't), and look at the root files therein.

I had no problem returning mine!

Hope that helps!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
Did you at least make a backup of the build.prop? I think the system will make one automatically I am just not sure how to go about getting it. I would guess if you can get into it with adb you could pull the backup rename it and push it to the /system. I don't know the commands but I am guessing someone who has posted stuff in the development section does, maybe that would work. Also, I am not sure there is a way to clear the cache/dalvik cache. Maybe through adb somehow which might have to be done as well.

I just don't know enough about adb and the commands to get it done.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fliger5:
Problem is, adb doesnt work because the device isnt recognized. It always says "No device found" or anything like that. Well I'll send it back to Amazon but I think they will send it then to Asus, so there's a chance that they will find it out, right?

Hey friends...

My friend has recently bought a defy in India... It came with eclair...

Now he wants to upgrade to gingerbread... But he doesn't want to root... So can anyone please help me? As I'm a Samsung user, I don't know anything about Motorola devices or how to upgrade them... So I would appreciate a noob friendly guide...

Thanks...
[Defy General] abysstheking:
u cannot upgrade to gingerbread w/o rooting...defy has got the official froyo, not gingerbread..

please read the pinned posts if u wish to know how to flash a custom gingerbread rom..
[Defy General] Arjoma:
He can update to Froyo, but there is no official Gingerbread update from Motorola for the Defy (and there will never be one).

If he doesn't want to tinker a bit he won't get Gingerbread (there are also 2.3 ports of the Defy Plus that work quite well, but rooting is necessary to install anything like that).

Thanks for your replies... one last question...

After rooting and flashing a gb rom, is there a way to go back to fully stock?

Thanks...
[Defy General] farsight73:
I still think you got everything you need in ChirmiPlay's post with link just above your last posting
[Defy General] Arjoma:
You can mess around with your Defy s much as you want, root, install ROMs, flash sbfs... And you can ALWAYS go back to the stock Foyo/ Eclair firmware your Defy came with. Even if something went wrong and the phone doesn't boot anymore, just flash a stock clean Motorola firmware and everything's gone (the ROM you had before, also the root). So also if your Defy has a hardware problem and you want to send it back, just go back to stock before and you don't have to worry about the warranty.
[Defy General] mearoth:
I don't think so. if you changed the bootloader version you will be stuck on some higher kernel and can not easily go back.. (that was what happend to epsylon3 - one of the main devs of CM9 for defy) - so if you flashed official froyo - you will not be able to go back to eclair for example. (as is also pointed out here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966537)

A piece of advice: read a lot (here in this forums) before you flash something. It help you not getting in trouble with your phone.
[Defy General] kanna91:
There is no point in using defy with the buggy stock Eclair/Froyo ..

If u want to see the complete potential of defy Root it and Install CM7..

and yes you can go back when ever you want but make sure u take the Nandroid backup of the stock ROM that u r using and check whether the official sbf of ur region is available to download.so that u can flash it and restore the nandroid backup .. !! :) :)
[Defy General] Arjoma:
Right, that was the only thing I wasn't thinking about. That is what is usually written in big red letters when there's something about these sbfs. But normally there is no need to change the bootloader version by installing the (not fixed) 2.3.4 sbf.

The only really current reliable options for the Defy imho are CM7.1, MIUI (and some versions based on it) and the Defy+ based ROMs (like MS2Ginger). With none of them you risk to be stuck somewhere - I flashed stock Froyo a dozen times without problems.
[Defy General] adil_:
Thanks all for your replies....

I'll root and flash cm today....

Hey guys

Thinking of getting a keyboard for my tab. Does anyone have one and r running cm9? Does it work fine? Were talking about the official USB keyboard from Samsung.

Thanks

Adam :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] MapleSyrup:
Which one exactly? Maybe this one: samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/ECR-K14AWEGSTA

If that's the case, I have one and it works, except some shortcut keys like brightness up/down, home, app drawer, and recent apps.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] adamski123:
Yeh its that one alrite so the keyboard works fine?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] MapleSyrup:
Oh yeah, in general, it works fine.

Just for the record, there's something else that doesn't work at the moment with ICS, switching the input language of the keyboard, only english.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Zemlyanka:
Yeh this is a really important concern. The keyboard loses so much value if a good portion of its buttons dont work and it wasnt a cheap keyboard... There must be some app somewhere for rebinding key inputs from bluetooth keyboards...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Chebooratino:
no, it is toggled (like caps)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] lilloscar:
i have the same problem with the same keys, my keyboard is a samsung and white color, with the same order that shows in the images (am still not allowed to post outside links)

does you guys think that one app can solve this?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kallt_kaffe:
I'm not sure about the "Lang" key. That's new to me and does not exist the keyboards that I am used to. It may need Samsungs own input method to work.

I might give it a try though. In a worst case scenario I guess it might be possible to use the "Lang" key as "Alt Gr" to access the Russian characters. Not an ideal solution but better than nothing I guess.

Install Keytest.apk from here and note down all the scancodes for the keys in the top and the bottom row.

(Also if any qwertz (German) or azerty (french) users read this I am also looking for the scancode for "#" (German keyboard) and "*" (French keyboard) for Samsung keyboard dock or bluetooth keyboards. Seems Samsung using different codes for the extra key on 102-key layouts than a standard PC keyboard does.)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Chebooratino:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kallt_kaffe:
Try my new app. I just added Russian layout to it for the russian layout I put the complete US layout on ALT and ALT+SHIFT positions. You can also configure one of the function keys to turn remapping on and off but I see now that the samsung keyboard does not have function keys.

Try the demo version and if it works, then using the debugging menu to read the scancode for the "Lang" button and hopefully I can add language switching support also for that key.

hebrew is missing

hey, i just purchased your app and it is missing hebrew language.

Is there any way to add it?

Thanks.

and maybe also add an alt+shift key to switch languages.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kallt_kaffe:
Hebrew is added now but you propably know that allready. "Alt+Shift" is not a good option because Alt+Shift+Key is used in some layouts to store 4 different symbols on the same key.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Byrana:
I just bought your app because I thought it might be useful. All in all it already works pretty well. There are two signs I can't get, therefore I have to switch back to the standard Samsung keyboard.

I can't get this one ' and that one ~ .... I wanted to do a new remapping but can't find any codes. Can you please fix that or at least let me know how I can fix it myself. It is not working on German layout.

Thanks for your help.

Edit: Also, I somehow can't get custom overrides to work on Galaxy Tab 10.1 Honeycomb 3.2.

Do you have any tutorial because the app itself is not that self explantory and seems to need some inside knownledge.

Any help is appreciated :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] kallt_kaffe:
Have a look at the FAQ here. It's hard to explain everything within the app.

http://www.apedroid.com/android-applications/external-keyboard-helper/faq

But basicly your problem is most likely that when using a genuine Samsung keyboard with a Samsung firmware (or a custom firmware using keylayouts from a stock firmware), AltGr and CapsLock are not using standard keycodes.

In version 2.4 I had a checkbox to enable a Samsung workaround for this but in version 2.5 it is possible to remap capslock and altgr so the workaround is no longer needed.

What you need to do is manually map "Right Alt Modifier" to the AltGr key and CapsLock to the CapsLock key to override the non-standard keycodes that Samsung mapped them to.

[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
I bought a Motorola Photon and unlocked the boot loader, rooted, Clockwork Mod Recovery'd, tried the whole Sprint phone unlocked for all carriers, then flashed CM9.

I tried to sbf back to stock and somehow (assuming I downloaded the wrong file along the way) I now have a Motorola Electrify that tries to run on U.S.Cellular.

I have subsequently downloaded all three stock sbf files on ShabbyPenguin's website and none of them will flash. (Super mega thanks to Shabby!)

I apologize if this is a duplicate thread. I've been searching all over this forum and the general interweb since roughly 9:00pm last night. Does anyone know a way I can force my phone to allow the flash that keeps failing on "re-enumeration"?

I come from mostly Samsung devices and RSD seems to be the closest thing to "download mode" but in download mode you can pretty much flash anything. Sorry this is long and rambling.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Yikes... I think once people flash that Electrify SBF by mistake, they are screwed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Well, crap.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
Take it to nearest Sprint store ask someone there to reprogram it you tried to do a system update and the battery died in the middle of it and how your phone is now is the end result if you have insurance it will be free to program it and if it fails to program should get new/ refurbished one for free or at the worst what ever the replacement fee is worth a shot worked for me once I tried to flash an sbf and my damn battery drained completely. Took it to Sprint store said the above and received the above. Gl
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
I don't have insurance.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
If you dont have the insurance it will cost you $35 for a replacement phone. I bricked mine without insurance and had to cough up the $35 for a new one. They tried reflashing my phone for free though but it didnt fix issue, so they should reflash it for you no problem without charging
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Do you think they'll do it even though its booting up as an electrify on U.S.Cellular?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Evilsj:
Honestly, it depends on who you see. As a Sprint employee who works at a S&R store, and into rooting myself, I'd have no problem with it (Upstate NY btw). But technically, since it's unlocked, its broken the warantee, and if you go to a store thats very by the books, it's gonna be iffy. If you can, go to a serice and repair store that IS NOT corporate, and likely they'll do it for you. If they ask if you rooted it, just say yes, and one of two things will happen. Either they'll say "sorry, we can't help you" and then you go to a different store, because trust me, that **** doesn't get noted or anything, or since the guy knows what rooting is, he's probably into it himself and will sympathise and get you a new one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Sprint service and repair store turned me down. Looks like I'm just gonna keep at it. I figure I'll get it at some point. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'll give it a try.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rrusek:
Does you phone say unlocked ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Currently, it does not say unlocked. It also gives me an error message if I try to execute any fastboot commands aside from:

moto-fastboot -w

&

moto-fastboot reboot
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Motorola is saying all I can do is send it in to them. I can get into RSD mode but nothing will successfully flash. I'm starting to think they might be right. I'm just so used to having Samsung phones. They're relatively easy in comparison. If anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions.
[Motorola Photon 4G] radrian92:
Try # moto-fastboot -w and then rds unlock then #moto-fastboot erase recovery #moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery-cyan-photon3.img (cwm) and you should be good! *cross fingers*
[Motorola Photon 4G] medic233:
Yeah, that is not going to work either.

That electrify ROM is a PITA when placed on the Photon.

I was able to exchange mine at the local store, but I luck out in the fact that they LOVE me there.

My exchange didn't cost me a dime either. However by that time the phone wouldn't charge either, so it wasn't booting, so they couldn't see the unlocked or the US Cellular boot animation.

Plus the fact the the owner and one of the techs were running Photons really helped.

Good luck.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Sirricharic:
I have the same problem I think the only way to solve this is to actually unlock it and use a custom rom. OR wait for Sprint to release a 2.3.5 rom to flash since you have a 2.3.5 bootloader I basically have a useless phone now :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Do I put the # in? I've never done that before.
[Motorola Photon 4G] radrian92:
No without it
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
Ok, I've tried that. Basically what I've found is that the 2.3.4 sbf for both the Photon 4G and the Electrify are unlockable, but the 2.3.5 which is available for the Electrify comes with a non unlockable bootloader. Somewhere along the line I must have accidentally flashed that and now I'm screwed. There is no way to downgrade without unlocking and no way to unlock that bootloader at this time. Sorry for the bad news to anyone else in this predicament. If anyone comes across a solution, please let me know.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jo_795:
try "frying" the phone phone/cpu so u can get it replaced without them seeing it unlocked ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] medic233:
More or less that is what I did. By the time I brought my phone into the local store, it wouldn't even turn on.

Now when the tech put his charged battery into the phone, it showed whatever it did, but I was taken care of.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Sirricharic:
If I gave sprint the numbers on the back of the phone and activated it like normal would I be able to use the phone and the capabilities?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jonas916:
No, unfortunately not. The serial numbers in the software won't jive with the numbers on the back. I totally tried that. FML
[Motorola Photon 4G] Sirricharic:
On mine the serial number in the software corresponds to the ones on the back of the phone
[Motorola Photon 4G] Sirricharic:
Well is there a way to downgrade the phone?
[Motorola Photon 4G] KSmithInNY:
From my understanding of where you're at, which is SOL unfortunately, the only option of applying the sprint images back on the device would involve hyper tunneling. I may be mistaken with the verbiage but I believe hyper tunneling is what's used by manufacturers to apply the OS to new phones and repairs before shipping as a refurb. It's basically their way of automating the os application on devices, can be done in bulk, and requires no specially skilled EE. I had a candid convo with an HTC EE a couple years ago which is where I learned about it. A google search yielded no additional info.

Hope that helps. If it's any consolation im also running a 2.3.5 electrify base build I made but I created mine as if Sprint were releasing it. so my bootloader is still unlocked. Mucho better than 2.3.4 IMHO. You need to make sure you never disconnect the device though because you wont be able to reactivate it. When reactivated a network profile gets sent to sprint phones, USC doesn't do this therefore the profile wont be acknowledged and the phone wont know its allowed to connect back to sprint.

Hope that helps.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KSmithInNY:
On second thought I didn't see you mention, nor have I ever seen it mentioned on a mopho, but I wonder if fastboot flashing a system.img and boot.img would work?

You'd want to be in fastboot mode, have moto-fastboot in your path, and the system.img and boot.img in the directory you're working from but id think the commands would be

moto-fastboot flash system system.img

moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img

This advice comes without any warranty but if you plan on shipping it out anyway it may be worth a try.

EDIT- looks like the original root method involved fastboot flashing a rooted system.img so you might be in luck. You'd also need to do the boot.img cause there are kernel and module differences between 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 but you might be able to get back to a sprint build but the bootloader would still be locked up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Sirricharic:
Ok can you direct me on how to do this? I for one don't have any .img files and can not find them to save my life.
[Motorola Photon 4G] treetolber:
Fastboot flashing the img files do not work either. Unless I have the wrong img files. Fastboot flashing only results in an error and an incomplete flash.
