[Motorola Droid 3] SeiferTV:
Ok, time to feel like a total noob.

So, my idea was to use safestrap to install aokp on the safe partition and leave my stock (+root) rom on the unsafe one.

I had bootstrap installed, just to back up my stuff and whatnot, so, I uninstalled it, installed safestrap, put all the stuff needed for AOKP ( rom, gsm patch and gapps ) and rebooted the phone. I enabled the safe system, and flashed rom, patch and gapps. then I rebooted, and I got into a loop where I would see the motorola logo ( the still one, which says "dual core technology" or something like that), then I got the safestrap splashscreen and if I pressed search, or left the phone idle so it would boot on it's own, it would get me to the motorola logo again, and repeat the loop.

I had to go back to the unsafe system and luckily it's all still there, but, since that point I tried every combination that I could think off, with wipes and I've flashed even just the rom, between wipes, and still, nothing.

I'm thinking that safestrap is not being able to write on the partition, or something like that, but I don't know how to solve it.

Any Ideas?

EDIT: I checked with a root explorer on /preinstall ( which I understand is the /system folder for the safe system ) and all the data seems to be there, but it's just not booting. Which makes me even more confused
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
So I've noticed that with one of the most recent updates for the phone the stock browser is now set to full screen so that the notification bar disappears right after a page loads. Is there any way to go back to what it was before? I'd rather have the notification bar there at all times.

What's even weirder is that my buddy is running stock 1.50.531.1 as well & his browser doesn't do this.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Does anyone have any insight for this issue?
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Almost 600 views & no one has any idea how to change this? :-(
[HTC Sensation] anilv26:
Do you have an ICS rom than it is the option labs in settings, there you can uncheck fullscreen
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Nope, running the stock 2.3.4 TmoUS ROM 1.50.531.1

I don't even know what triggered the change, but I hate it.
[HTC Sensation] octopuskate:
Don't believe you can but pressing the menu key should bring it up temporarily... sorry I can't be more helpful :-(
[HTC Sensation] Yerdan:
Did you go into the browser settings and try to reset to default at the bottom?
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
yes, tried resetting to default & that didn't help. one of these days I'm gonna try a hard reset & see if that works. I find it most odd that it does this on my phone but my friend has everything exactly the same & his notification bar is always present. I hate having to press the menu key anytime I want to do anything outside of the browser.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
Had to hard reset due to UID inconsistant error, hard reset also fixed this issue

Awesome job on the ROM as always! Sucessfully flashed the ROM and the latest modem bin.

Only question: on the first post of the CleanGB thread, there is a link to the CleanGB kernel (in addition to full version). Do I need to flash that as well?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] travmofosho:
No the kernel is included in the rom for Clean GB. Next time post within the Clean GB thread and ask. Also seems like maybe your new to this so be very careful!

I have a rooted and unlocked bootloader nexus one. I previously had cm7 on it but decided to flash an ics rom without having the blackrose hboot. I need help to get into recovery as I can get to the point where to select recovery I need the power button. Is there another way of getting into recovery thru fastboot or something?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
Adb reboot recovery. Adb should work within 10 seconds of booting. I had a problem once that wouldn't even get past the X to the boot animation.

You can also install blackrose which enables you to press the trackball instead of the power button.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezdi:
I think you need to be able to boot normally to install blackrose.

But if you have a broken power button, get blackrose and 4ext touch recovery on your phone as soon as you can boot normally.

If you're not getting far enough into the boot for ADB to work and can't do the fastboot stuff because you never unlocked the bootloader (and don't want to), you can toss a passimg on your sd card to go back to stock. Then you can reroot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hahacrops:
I can't get into adb, but my bootloader is unlocked. Is there any way of getting into recovery without having to reroot.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Aleq:
Hi All,

I know, there are many threads about KF vs NT, sorry for another one, I just haven't found my answer yet about following.

I'm visiting US and plan to buy a souvenir - either Kindle Fire or Nook Tablet. I lean towards NT slightly - because of the SD slot and RAM. I'm worried about locked bootloader however.

I would like to use the tablet for video playback, surfing the web, playing some games.

I'd like to have there ICS/CM9 one day. And that's the question. We have seen big progress in NT hacking recently, but it's definitely behind the state of KF development (of course thanks to B&N obstacles).

Is it only a matter of time and effort till NT gets working ICS (capable of reasonably smooth performance including video playback, etc.), or is it still a mystery, whether we ever get there? How big is the risk of ending with devs giving up due to some B&N obstacle?

Thanks for your opinions/knowledge, I'm scratching my head for 1,5 months already :-)

Aleq
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] LordGibson:
Based on what we're seeing with CM7 I don't see any impossible hurdles for CM9. It's just a lot more work and a much less mature project. I'd say NT is a no brainer over KF.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Aleq:
Cool, Nook Tablet with only 8GB of storage was introduces for $50 less, $199 total. It keeps the SD slot so I'd say that's a great deal.

I just hope no new bootloader (with new hacking countermeasures) comes with it or it gets cracked soon.

UPDATE: Too bad, the RAM has been cut from 1GB to 512MB :-(
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nba1341:
I am a amazon prime member/amazon fanboy try to buy everything there and was really excited in the summer when I heard amazon was making their own line of tablets.

Then it was finally announced and I was like wtf seriously... 8gb or storage and no sd card slot plus the dreaded power button and no volume control buttons. I was massively disappointed and planned to wait till they updated the kindle but since the NT was on sale for 200 I bought it and couldn't be happier for my needs. Before I was using a coby tablet with lower res screen and no development since no firmware is public.

KF seems useless until updated with sd card/moved power button
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nexuslm:
I am really interesting in this problem too, NT hardware is much better but software development it’s far behind than KF.

What B&N obstacles are you taking about?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Judging by the youtube videos I have seen, CM9 is coming along nicely. I think once a 3.0+ working kernel is working, it will only be a matter of time.

The obstacles with the NT are B&N's bootloader being locked down and continuously changing. That keeps holding up development as new fixes are constantly being needed to progress further. Now, it seems, with the introduction of the 8GB version, it seems to be stalling a bit again while current progress is ported over to that build as well. I may be wrong on that, but that's the way it seems to me.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Aleq:
So I bought Nook Tablet and I'm loving it. Best souvenir from vacation ever :-)

Running so far only rooted stock 1.4.2 + Android Market. Looking at CM7, looking forward to CM9.

Locked bootloader, new firmwares removing root and preventing old rooting methods.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fjhuerta:
The only thing I disliked about my Nook is the fact that the B&N store is useless outside the States.

So using CM7 is pretty much obligatory for me.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Aleq:
That's true, but partly the same applies to Amazon Store - foreigners are not allowed to make purchases there.

Hacking - root + Market (Play, eh.) or CM7 / CM9 (it's coming!) was always the main reason for me to get one. I wouldn't be buying either of two, if it would be locked to stock forever :)

If you mean Video call as in 3G Video Call (similar to what some non-smartphones have), then no, it does not.

But video calls using the "internet" (weather by wifi of 3G data connection), then yes, it does work using 3rd party apps like Skype or Tango.

[Vibrant General] Shortbus-Driver:
You have to reinstall packages 2 times in a row
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Take the SU.zip off your internal and put the CWR.zip on there and reinstall twice. Since you are flashing and only getting root and north custom recovery, that makes me think you are not flashing the CWR zip.

You wont get su with this......but you will have cwr and can flash any rom......getting su
[Vibrant General] moldyghosty:
I have tried that, doesn't work
[Vibrant General] Shortbus-Driver:
Well ive never heard of a cwr.zip. nor one called cwr.zip that is recognized as an update.zip for reinstall packages so good luck.

If that isnt working for you than theres something wrong cuz for 2 years thats the only way ive used
[Vibrant General] Woody:
I think my dropbox links might be working now. Go to my sig and click on CWR and download it. Open folder and put the update.zip (it is 1.7mb and make sure it is labeled Update.zip and not CWR.zip) on the root of your Internal_sd so it the only thing labeled update.zip on there. Make sure you have whatever ROM you are going to flash on your External SD card and know where it is. If you have the Superuser.zip on your internal, then move it off.

Boot into stock recovery (blue) and scroll down to Reinstall Packages. Hit it and let it cycle through. It will come back to stock recovery (blue) . Scroll down and hit it again. It will cycle again but this time it will go from blue to green (CWR) . Scroll down to Install from SD and find your ROM you wanted to flash and hit it. Follow whatever ROM's OP.

If for some reason my links aren't working, go to Noob guide stickied on Q&A and download Option B and follow same directions as above.

If you have a terminal Lg 're in luck, because you can forget about all the problems you had with him, because now is launching a range of new phones that you can move all these heinous problems to a new terminal with a completely new hardware still more pointer.

Forget upgrading to ice cream sandwich in your old optimus 3d, and re-warm as a motorcycle can not update your new phone hits the market seeing a new version of the operating system and you can upgrade if that in three months next year as they take another new phone range.

With radio, wifi, GPS, send and receive calls, Fluzo capacitor, all in one device the next century that maybe it works or not, or would work or not.

Do not think most LG acquires a latest generation terminal and feel the indescribable feeling to see you cheated and slighted by an international holding company, is an extra few give you the pleasure of tasting.

edit: I got it. I was stuck right after the unlock and could not get menu after going into the stock recovery. It appears that you have to push the power button just a fraction of a second before the Vol up/down. Or at least in my case that is what worked.

Trying to root this manually with an Ubuntu Linux box, adb and fastboot setup I got stuck. Not sure what is wrong. Any help is appreciated. This is what I did so far:

adb devices recognizes the phone

1- downloaded fastboot and cd to it in terminal (but don't really need it since it is already setup)

2- volume up and down and power to get to inital menu with locked state

3- fastboot oem unlock, chose yes and got the unlocked state

now I can't get to the menu for recovery to wipe data and factory reset. I pressed the volume down to get the recovery mode option and then power button, it flashed an android standing up (after the google and the lock screen) but quickly goes into the laying down android with a red triangle in it's tummy. Did I miss something?

phone won't boot up (bootloop). any help is appreciated

I'm not sure if this is the right forum but I am almost sure it is...

Anyway... I notice that certain gradients on my galaxy nexus have really visible bands in them like they are 16 bit color (these gradients being the backgrounds in settings, music, phone, people). I can see them on my galaxy tab (10.1, running cm9 kang) but that doesn't bother me because the display isn't as bright so I have to look really closely and its not really as much of a problem as it is on my galaxy nexus. I originally thought my gnex's display was defective but now I realize it is just the ics ui in general as it can display gradients in the browser and gallery fine. I have cm9 on my gnex as well, and it has a dithering option but this doesn't seem to affect the gradients in question.

I also notice small 1 pixel bands running across the display (most visible when on a black background like the app drawer) when the task switcher is open.

I put screenshots on my flikr (and increased the brightness of them as its hard to see on a lcd display) here: w w w . flickr . c o m /photos/76511621@N06/ (if anybody can suggest a better place than flikr feel free to tell me, and sorry for violating the no links for noobs rule, you will have to take out some of the spaces in that url :) ).

Turn off security in settings, either slide or off is what your looking for
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shovelheadhd:
It depends on exactly what you are looking for but you can change the amount of time the screen has to be off before requiring a pin. I believe if you go into security settings you can put the screen off time at 30 min before requiring a pin or any other security for that matter.

If I'm not mistaken, that only affects the time out sleep state. If you manually press the side button to turn the screen off it locks immediately. It'd be nice for this not to happen.
