Stuck in a boot loop

Hi guys,

Is there any chance this could fix my 'bootlooping' tablet?

I gave up trying to fix the firmware on my g9 250, but last week I just turned it on and it magically started working... at least for a few hours... then it hung again, and went back to a boot loop. The hang happened while it was trying to read the 250gig hdd (this was normal)....

I guess I want to know, could the SSD switch fix it, or is there a way to see if my original HDD has a real mechanical fault.

Any help is appreciated, cos it's been a dust collector for 4-6 months now...

Replace battery in Archos 80 G9

Has anyone ever replaced the battery in an Archos 80 G9 tablet. There are 4 wires coming from the two batteries. I just replaced mine with one battery and there is only one red and one black wire on it.

Does this matter, as my new battery does not charge. It works fine, It just won't charge.

Thanks in advance
[General Questions and Answers] MDA400:
Im trying to install a custom boot animation on the recently-developed Cyanogenmod 9 ICS beta ROM (4.0.3) by Lupohirp (for my Optimus T) and I used ES file explorer to navigate to the either the /system/media directory or the /data/local directory and are having problems getting it to work.

Is it a ROM dependant issue why it won't show the custom boot animation?

Because when I put the bootanimation.zip file in the /system/media folder, it still defaults to the vanilla Android flashy logo.

If I try to paste it to the /data/local folder, it will come up with an error saying "bootanimation.zip paste failed!"
[General Questions and Answers] orangekid:
you need to make sure it's going in the right folder, some ROMs point to different places.

you also need to make sure you've given ES root and r/w mount privilege so it can paste stuff where you want.
[General Questions and Answers] MDA400:
It'll take me a bit to ask the creator of the rom since i need 10 posts, but I thought it could be a reason for where the ROM looks for the boot animation.

As for the root and read/write privlieges, i have set ES to request root from SuperUser and know which privileges i need to set (rw-r--r--) as informed by the creator of the boot animation.

[General Questions and Answers] MDA400:
No, but as soon as you posted that, i googled it and its an actually app. thats pretty cool ill try that.

Note: i tried again yesterday to get a boot animation to work and finally got it to paste into /data/local with rw-r--r-- permissions and even tried pasting it into /system/bin, but it wont work. Just boots up with the white LG logo on a black background, then to the lockscreen.
[General Questions and Answers] MDA400:
EDIT: Apparently there is no support for boot animation in this ROM for now, and its clear why it doesn't show one anymore at start up. i guess it did before, but now it doesn't.

Ill just wait to see how its updated in the future, but for now, thread resolved.

But now my phone is stuck on white screen and I don't know how to boot into recovery. Do i have to wait till the battery is completely drained?

Thanks guys, problem resolved by pulling battery out during the 3 sec window after rebooting with volume up/down button and booting into recovery afterwards.

Then used ''fastboot flash boot boot.img'' command.

[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
@n0elite

Your avatar is a splitting image of you currently.

Don't bump a thread on the hour.....

So what you are trying to say is you never followed your OWN guide correctly?

Now I assume you did everything else and it is just the boot img problem.

So can you give some details on what it said when you tried to flash the boot?

-You extracted the img, placed it with your fastboot.exe and said fastboot flash boot boot.img

You can try the vol up and down and power to get your phone to reboot.
[HTC Desire S] n0elite:
I flashed the boot.img in fastboot with the ''fastboot flash boot boot.img '' command while it should've been ''fastboot flash boot $pathToBootIMG\boot.img ''. My guide was wrong at that step.

That's the reason why I think the phone won't boot the rom, because it doesn't know where ''boot.img'' is.

That's why rebooting with vol up,down and power button won't do a thing. It just reboots,stays at the white htc screen..

I know how to resolve the problem, only I can't get into recovery so that I can fix it!
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Reboot using the three buttons. When it is off, pull the battery out (it is a short window so be ready). Then wait a while, put it back in and hold volume down and press the power button.
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
You need to boot your phone into fastboot to flash the boot.img, keep searching on how to flash the boot.img, it is here, same as flashing recovery though.
[HTC Desire S] FrikandelChris:
Put the boot.img of your custom ROM (extract it from zip file) in the same folder where your adb tools are.

Then repeat that flashing step
[HTC Desire S] n0elite:
Thank you i'm in recovery now. How should I flash boot.img?

Using the command ''fastboot flash boot $pathToBootIMG\boot.img '' i thought it would work gives me ''error: cannot load '$pathToBootIMG\boot.img'''

-edit- nvm just had to use ''fastboot flash boot boot.img
[HTC Desire S] FrikandelChris:

[HTC Desire S] Medhavi:
Why take unnecessary risks?

Why pull the battery? That is a completely unnecessary risk. Just reboot using the three buttons, wait till the screen goes blank, then wait for the lights at the bottom to go out, then immediately press volume down and power - it will go straight into the bootloader.

If you pull the battery just a fraction of a second too late you could get a current surge just as it is turning back on and that is a particularly dangerous time to pull the battery in my opinion.
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
Why resurrect a dead post?
[HTC Desire S] Medhavi:
For a very simple reason: people will see the instruction to pull the battery and they will pull the battery. A proportion of them will fry their eMMC chips as a result.

The post may be dead to you, but it still comes up on searches and people still read it. I've already seen it quoted in other threads.

tried your camera ics..

auto focus is bad on it other than that its pretty good.

if you want a good camera use procapture camera

i use my cam alot and i have almost all cam apps from vignette to fxcam to cartoon cam. but the best of the best IMO is procapture for the auto focus and when it takes a pic the screen doesn't go black like in camfx or vignette and yes is has volume keys to take pic.

just my 2cents. :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PENKO956:
mostly just auto focus not working. the devs of the app said they are working to improve it. Oh i should mention the auto focus is just bad with the volume keys it takes good pics with focus if you touch the red button and hold to focus then release to take pic. but since Samsung couldn't afford to add a dedicated cam button, volume keys to take pic is a must for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CyanModICS:
Why would you buy Camera ICS? It is a free app but the paid version doesn't have ads. To block ads just get an ad blocker (assuming you have root access) from the market. And this is not "my app".

I use LMT as I hide soft keys I noticed it's very difficult to activate the LMT piecontrol when in landscape mode.

This is the lowest I can go on my screen before the screen no longer registers any touch (and is most likely the reason why LMT piecontrol does not pop up when I keep trying).

Clearly shows there is a unreachable band which the phone does not register me touching.

There is a well documented with multi-touch on original factory roms where parts of the screen would fail to detect when doing multi-touch. I believe this is fixed in 4.0.4. If you're willing, try flashing to 4.0.4 to see if the problem is fixed for you. Otherwise, I'd suggest exchanging.

This is not a multi touch issue. This is a simple single touch issue where the screen seems to 'end short'

Shes thinking about getting the droid 4 and giving it to me....and me giving her my droid 3. (she has a droid eris right now *shudders*, iv done all i could to make that phone better and its still horrible...plays netflix at 3 fps.)

So question for you guys!

Which ROM should I flash for her? I want her to have the most smooth user friendly ROM out there...that does what she needs it to do....not with ALL the bells and whistles us geeks use ;).

What she does mostly on the phone.

1. Email

2. Web Browsing

3. Watch Netflix (well she wants too!)

4. ACTUAL PHONE CALLS!!

5. Texting (not that often)

6. Pictures

7. Pandora (she uses that alot actually)

Maybe some convenient tweaks in the rom here and there would be nice...toggles and such. But I think mostly a light weight smooth rom would be nice ^.^. I was going to flash Liberty....but i see no support for that anymore :/

Why did you buy a tablet without 3g that has a large emphasis on gaming and runs on android?

In order to properly use this in the feild or at a job, you'd probably need a 4g hotspot anyway, and as far as I understand aGPS works fine on the tf prime.

I am trying to envision a situation where an important business man on xda-developers needs his gps always but not internet access. Surely he wouldn't need it for driving to the office every morning.

The only job I can think of is a pizza delivery driver. And even then a delivery driver should know how to navigate in his area, perhaps not street numbers, but not usually a huge deal that you need to whip out the gps for.

So is xda full of angry dominos employees? The best plan in my opinion is to buy a clearwire 4g hotspot or something similar if you have a job that demands it. It's cheaper than a data plan would be on at&t or verizon, you get better battery, you get higher speeds, and its makes your tablet more useful. Even with the 3g/LTE transformer coming this year, 3g is very slow, and LTE is usually very expensive and battery demanding. A 4g hotspot would still be the best option, not just for your transformer - but ALL your devices.
