[HTC EVO 3D] cardmastr:
Ok, this is my first post so be gentle. I tried to root my sons phone and now it's useless. I went thru HTC's website to unlock bootloader due to having HBOOT 1.5. I'm unlocked and thinking life is good but, I loaded several different ROM's and get the same result. It starts to load the ROM and reboots, sometimes it goes into a safemode with the Viper Rom. I've been jacking with this for 2 days and need some help. I can't find a good link for the RUU or PG86...bla bla bla, I would take it back to stock and surrender but, can't even do that. I've installed TWRP and CWM, just to try different stuff, but get all the same reults.
[HTC EVO 3D] metalfan78:
I think you need to flash the boot.img separately. I'm not sure though. There's a thread for flashing with 1.50 somewhere in the development section

We're comin from a pure power source.
[HTC EVO 3D] zanekills:
I am having the same issue here, I installed several ROMS, it works for a day, but then the reboot attack starts. Constant lockups and random restarts, sometimes 3 reboots in a row.

ROMs I tried to flash:

1. Xperia XE

2. Titan Trinity 3 HD

3. Nocturnal Adrenaline 1.0.2

Maybe it's the kernel, is there a list of kernels that I can flash?
[HTC EVO 3D] armydude13090:
This worked for me

My phone kept rebooting after root before, but I managed to fix it. This will only work if you can get into fastboot. Download the ruu file located here and run it while in fastboot. This will unroot your phone if you have S-On. After that is done, if it still loops, take out the battery and count to five, then put the battery in and hold the power button on the phone until the phone starts to turn on normally. That fixed my problem, hope it fixes yours. You may have to update after you get your phone started and you will lose all your data. Sorry about the link, I updated to one that has a working download.
[HTC EVO 3D] zanekills:
Unroot my phone?

Is it possible to re-root it?
[HTC EVO 3D] cardmastr:
Thanks all for the posts. I will give some of this a shot and see what happens. I can get to fastboot, and have loaded a couple of things thru the cmd prompt to try and help, but nothing so far. I'm not really sure if the kernel thing is what's stopping the roms for loading. I can't get the S-OFF, I'm unlocked. I can send anything I want thru the cmd prompt, and also flash zips thru twrp or cwm. Would like to start over but ca't even find a way to do that. Thanks again for the posts.
[HTC EVO 3D] zanekills:
Cardmastr, we're on the same boat, pg86 takes forever to download, so as I'm waiting patiently, keep me in on the loop with what you're doing.
[HTC EVO 3D] cardmastr:
RUU didn't cut it, kept failing. have not found an image file to flash thru the cmd prompt. Still no luck. What can I throw into fast boot that might help me?????!!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] thefsfempire:
When I started flashing after using HTC Unlock, I ran "fastboot boot recovery.img" - which booted TWRP with the necessary permissions. Then I wiped everything and flashed the ROM. Haven't had any issues with the ROMs I've tried.
[HTC EVO 3D] gilbydakid:
Which recovery did you install? Twrp 1.1.1 is your best bet.

The 2.x version twrp or cwm do not okay nice with some phones.

S3nt from my 3D wond3rland
[HTC EVO 3D] cardmastr:
I used the TWRP 1.1.1. Might of messed up with some of the cmd prompt stuff I'm going back thru.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommyka:
Hi All,

I just installed "Sandvold's ICS BETA" and quiet like it. But would it be possible to rid off the google search bar from the top of the screen ?

Or its a must have suprise from google ?

(I don't think its usefull on each screen, or at all... :S )

Kind regards,

Tom
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fma965:
I think a system apk is incharge of that not sure on name though.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Either delete GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk in /system/app or check the launcher's settings.

Sent from Sandvold's ICS using Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeding11:
I am back to LeeDroids ROM at the moment but I was using Sanvold's ROM until a few days ago. There is a menu setting for to get rid of the search bar but I can't remember precisely where off the top of my head. The wording is something like "Enable persistent searchbar", if you uncheck this, it will be gone.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorinsion:
When you install the rom, choose in the installer for the nova launcher option. It has the option to disable the searchbar.

Menu -> Nova Settings -> Desktop -> Persistent Search Bar -> Never
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muellersmattes:
It's the same on Apex launcher. I don't know if you can disable it on stock launcher, but the alternatives are also more customisable.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gab_hamelin:
Use Nova and simply remove the bar.

On my Desire wihit ICS beta 0.4.4, I just have to remove it like a widget.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ActionBastardDV:
I have been searching for an answer but have yet to find one, so I am going to ask here: is there a way to enable/disable Fast Dormancy on ICS? I have an i9000 and am running Slim ICS 4.0.3.

I have read that the samsung code *#9900# does not work on AOSP roms, and would like to confirm this. Also, if this is true, is there another way to access this setting? ie, app from the market?

Thanks in advance for your help
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdmackay:
Confirmed that it does not work on THS ICS CM9 alpha b17, either.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjuki:

http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1145001.html

I dont think disabling / enabling fast dormancy on i9000 would have any affect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ActionBastardDV:
I'm not entirely sure if it really has any effect on i9000, but from my own personal experience, while I was on 2.3.3, it appeared to make all the difference to my phone. While my phone currently runs fine, I just wanted to see if changing the fast dormancy setting was able to improve my phones performance.

I've seen that link you provided before, but was under the impression that it was referring to a GB rom, not an ICS rom, although I could be mistaken.

Anyways, thanks for your help
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floripi:
Any notice about this issue?

I´m very interested.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheeWolf:
Same here, it would be really good if I could disable fast dormancy.

Edit: I have read somewhere that it is possible to go back to GB, disable fast dormancy and then go back to ICS. Is it possible?

What if I go back to GB, disable FD and then restore a nandroid backup from ICS. Will FD still remain disabled?

[Galaxy Tab General] IcedCube:
It you cannot get into download mode, then congratulations. You have got yourself a brick, and your Galaxy Tab is "GAME OVER".
[Galaxy Tab General] espionage724:
This pretty much. If you can't get into download mode by powering off the tab and trying to turn it on via Vol Down + Power, then it may indeed be bricked.

I believe there was 1 person who flashed the wrong kernel or something, and couldn't see anything on-screen, but was able to get into download mode (I think he had the wrong graphics driver), but idk.

If your tab is bricked though, you'll either have to checkout the "Unbrickable" mod, find someone else to perform the unbrickable mod for you, or talk to Samsung about it.
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
The main thing is to get into Download mode. Normally you see the Android-at-work screen in this mode, but there are other screens, and these will work as well. The Phone ! PC screen, though worrying, is a Download mode as well. Even a black screen showing nothing may be a Download screen. See for instance this helpful topic by k0sh.

That said, flashing a bootloader, or messing (patching) with one is one of the very few ways to hard brick your Tab...

If you can get the Tab recognised by Odin or Heimdall (remember to install their drivers first) in Download mode, you're good to go (flash that is). Heimdall has a Close PC screen function that's very handy, and may get you to boot a bricked Tab. Remember to charge it 4 hours or so before trying anything, even if it doesn't seem to show or do anything.

Reflashing to a ROM known to be able to boot is good if you can go to Download mode. Overcome can do this. Follow the flash to stock guide in this thread. I don't know if this will work for all Tabs, but it certainly works for a European GSM tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] sahniana:
i also have the problem with "logtudinal coloured line" after patch the bootloader. but i can enter the download mode (power off,volume down+home+power on) and can see the 'android on work' logo.

i surf back the bootloader thread and found this.

"DO NOT USE THIS ON THE GINGERBREAD RELEASES ! THE SAMSUNG GINGERBREAD RELEASES DO HAVE SIGNED BOOTLOADERS, BUT THEY ARE NOT LOCKED. In other words, you can still flash custom kernels and such, and the bootloader patch will only break things, not fix them."

well, my gtab p1000 is 2.3.3 (dxjpi).

and the question, how to get back the original bootloader? i've read that bootloader come with rom. but doesn't really understand it (android newbie).
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
Flash the whole stock official rom
[Galaxy Tab General] sahniana:
here what i did.

THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE WITH MY GALAXY TAB P1000 AND TRY IT (IF YOU WANT TO) WITH YOUR OWN RISK!

- downloaded "XXJQ1_2.3.3_P1000.zip" that included with ODIN3 1.3 and "gt-p1000_mr.pit".

- get gtab to dowload mode (android at work logo), run ODIN3 1.3 and COM detected.

- select pit and pda file (P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar). using default settings (no re-partition), click start.

- odin result:-

<ID:0/029> Added!!

<ID:0/029>

<ID:0/029> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

- gtab reboot, now got "phone and computer logo link with exclamation mark in between. bricked my galaxy tab).

- then i look at ODIN3 1.3, device still detected. close ODIN3 1.3.

- downloaded "CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.zip" and "Odin3 v1.7.zip".

- run ODIN3 1.7, device detected. select pda file "CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.tar" (and i make sure the re-partition is NOT SELECTED).

- start, and here is the result:

<ID:0/029> Added!!

<ID:0/029> Removed!!

<ID:0/029> Added!!

<ID:0/029> Removed!!

- my galaxy tab now reboot, and now i dont see the "horizontal coloured line" @ boot screen @ animation messy one.

- using bootloader patch, checked the status. result:-

signed: pbl, sbl_backup

not signed: sbl, kernel

device condition nothing unusual, normal. i think i have repaired the bootloader back to original stock jq1.
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
Flashing a "full ROM" will amongst others flash the boot loader to the Tab. A full ROM is a ROM that includes all the parts necessary to create a bootable and working system on a possibly corrupted or otherwise non-working system. Your first attempt flashed the boot loader (boot.bin, sdl.bin), but failed on something else. It seems you repaired that by flashing a kernel. So yes, you have restored the boot loader.
[Galaxy Tab General] sahniana:
yes. at first i am so worried and curious to try repair the bootloader. after searching here in xda related to rom and bootloader,ive gained some confidence to do so. but,what is the "phone-triangle-pc" logo means?
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
It is just another "download" mode.
[Galaxy Tab General] ableeker:
You usually get this when something goes wrong during a flash, like when the flash doesn't even start, and you reboot the Tab. It seems that in such a case the Tab can't get to the normal download mode, and shows this image to let you know something's wrong. However, Odin in this mode is still able to connect to the Tab, so luckily you can flash again. That's why it's called a soft brick, and not a hard brick, because it can be fixed by software.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slkdk:
Got my Note for 7 days now and I love it.

Though yesterday I noticed a small piece of dirt under the screen. It is very tiny but it annoys the crap out of me and can't stop looking at it :mad:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31838752/Crap/SDC13356.JPG

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/31838752/Crap/SDC13360.JPG

Other than that it doesn't have a single scratch or anything like that.

Hope to get it fixed under the warranty, since I guess it has been there since production.

Anyone else have had dirt under the screen?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Funkym0nkey:
The front glass on note is laminated to the display so there is no chance of dirt getting in between the screen and glass post production. Its either there since the piece has been manufactured or its actually pixel problem. Either way, you should get it replaced / repaired under warranty
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeromepearce:
My guess is it got there through the USB connection port. I had that with another phone and it annoyed me. Blowing hard through the port got rid of it,

I have no idea if this is the case here, however, there is always the possibility it was introduced during manufacture.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zamboney:
That's physically impossible on the Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] naimmkassim:
Like funkymonkey said, impossible it can insert screen during usage since its AMOLED. Its only possible if the screen is LCD like most of htc phone..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ddeath:
For AMOLED screens, should not be possible. I've got experiences with dust on LCD screens but no issues so far with my Galaxy S, SII and Note. Could it be under the screen protector if you applied one?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeromepearce:
I thought you could remove the upper layer? I have no idea what is possible or not, though, I do not know enough about it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doodalicious:
Hey Guys!

I've been trying to find a way to keep the softkey light on S2 on MIUI turned off (COMPLETELY, not auto brightness values for button to 0) but there really isn't a way...

I've noticed in CM7 there is a Galaxy SII settings app that can be found independently in Titanium Backup. That app has the option to turn off the softkey backlight completely.

Do you think it's possible to drag that app from CM7 and Install it on MIUI to turn off the keylight? Considering from what I've read MIUI is based partly on CM right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iekansh:
Go to display setting. Turn on auto brightness and beneath it will be advanced settings or something. Then there should be automatic backlight tab or Light Levels. Click on Edit Other levels.. Underneath button, make the value(should be 225 or 250) go to 0. You're good to go. You can turn off auto brightness then.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Pretty sure the OP said "COMPLETELY, not auto brightness values for button to 0"...Wait...He did :rolleyes:

OP - there are various scripts around the place which claim to achieve this. I also use Miui & setting the auto brightness to zero used to work. This stopped working early in the the new year so something has obviously changed in Miui's builds.

I can't vouch for the usefulness of these scripts as I've learned to live with this issue, and I don't have a link for same. Try a Google search & append XDA to your search terms. This should yield something for you.

Edit to add - With regard to pulling over an app from CM7, obviously Miui is CM based so it might work. I guess you can only try it & find out. Can't see how it could do any harm given it's only an app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doodalicious:
@Mistah Thanks loads dude, I've tried some of the scripts from some of the searches I did and nothing seems to work you're right.

I'll give it a shot and see how it goes, but I don't think if i get the APK out i can just install it normally right? I'd have to put it in system>app then do a reboot for it to go in nicely?

I'll test it and report it back here tmrw thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No worries ;)

Yeah I'm not surprised the scripts don't work. Yeah give it a try, put it in /system/app & also might wanna mount /system rw before you install it (if you need to, use an app like Remount to do this). Yeah do a reboot after you've installed it & cross your fingers.

Will be awaiting your report with baited breath :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doodalicious:
Hey @Mistah I'm on checkrom v4 currently though coz im trying out some stuff. I've got the said apk out from cm7 do you think I can pm it to you in about 7 hours from now to try it out?

I wrote a script which works for me on all kernels with init.d support, here's a link:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27703769/Permanently Disable Softkey Backlight.zip

If the flashable zip doesnt work just copy the script and set correct permissions (755). Please report back, because I haven't used the script for a while now...

BLN doesn't work on the script, though. I have located the file which contains the value for the backlight and changed its permissions, this disables the phone to change this value and thus keeping it off. This file is on a different location on almost every phone, so most scripts work on only one particular device.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doodalicious:
Hey Joop!

Tested the zip and it flashed but it just seems to force the softkey light on. Doesn't go off at all after that. Thanks for the help though!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mvan4310:
Just got a new 10.1 yesterday and gave myself a day to see how much I like it. Speed is always a big deal for me. Im actually typing from the tab now. The keyboard isnt too bad, but I dont see a autocorrection so far, but have not looked into it. The speed of the Touchwiz and homescreens is much better than most had me believe. I dont have any lag between the tapping of the arrow and the animation to show the quick apps.

The tablet also came fully updated, as far as the tablet shows through the update wizard. I will eventually check up the dev section and make sure I have the latest update today or tomorrow. The touchscreen does show a bit of lag as far as drawing with the fingers but isnt too bad and rougly on course with the A100 from Acer, my previous tablet. Battery is also great, and came 50% charged when I bought it, and didnt drop below 40% for the 4 hours I had used it before throwing it on the charger and watching some youtube and netflix.

Anyways, that was a quick review, and I love the tablet as of right now, when I thought the Tw UX was going to be a pain, but hasshown to be opposite and not too bad.

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks all forth replies. I havebthe thumb keyboard already, but don't need a new launcher or anything yet, since the stock is working perfect. The next next thing I'm waiting on is the ics update in the coming months. I do plan to root this soon, but won't use an ics Rom since I use the cameras often. I may throw Task or overcome on this instead while I wait. Overall a very good tablet, and the detail is amazing as far as the resolution and everything else goes.
