[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] captainlovesac:
So i recently got a free upgrade to a inc 2 by turning my og inc in under warranty for a blow speaker (for the third time) and i naturally rooted it and installed a nice miui rom. Now about a month later im out of town for work and the screen has died. The phone is still operational, but the screen is black.

I am wondering if this could possibly a firmware issue? i have tried pulling the battery and booting into recovery but the screen is 100% useless. the touchscreen still seems to work, i can unlock it and answer calls ect...

My hunch is that its a hardware problem, but i'd like to try and flash it back to stock if possible to eliminate the possibility of a rom issue.

Does anyone know a way to flash a rom onto it without the use of the screen?

Can i use the HTC sync tool to set it back to stock like i could with the OG incredible?

Any help is much appreciated, i'm pretty desperate here.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Ihatepullups:
if it was me, I'd flash it back to stock using a ruu file, then do a warranty claim, cause then if it's a firmware/software issue the ruu will fix it. There's a thread somewhere around that has instructions to do that, give me a minute...

Edit -found it! Here ya go- http://rootzwiki.com/topic/1579-how-to-restore-to-stock-from-alpharevx-incredible-2-vivow-only/page__st__53
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] captainlovesac:
ok, so my new issue is that if i flash the ruu, and the screen still doesn't work, i'll be stuck at the setup wizard right? then i won't even be able to use google voice to make calls from my laptop. i guess ill have to wait till i get home, this would be so much easier if my pos nextel work phone had service out here in wyoming.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Yea, that's a tough one, I definitely wouldn't flash an RUU for the exact reason you bring up.

One option, although it isn't without it's own challenges, would be to try to install a VNC server on your phone, so you could then connect to and use it through a desktop computer. You could probably install it easy enough through the Android Market web site. Here's one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.onaips.vnc

If you download the Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html), connect your phone to your computer, open a command prompt and run ddms, it'll bring up the Dalvic Debug Monitor. Here, you can go to Device>Screen Capture and it'll bring up a window showing the screen of your phone. There's a refresh button which will refresh the screenshot. It'll be a little hit or miss, but you should be able to reference the screenshot to tap on your blank screen to open the VNC app, hit the start server button, and then see what IP/port it's listening on.

Once you get the VNC server running and connect, you should be able to use the phone fairly easily, although if the screen is dead even during boot (no initial boot screen, no display in h-boot) it would seem like a hardware problem and there's probably not much you can do about it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] captainlovesac:
Yeah i think i'm hosed, i have no screen at all, i can't get the ruu to run, it comes back saying i have the wrong device. i guess im just gonna send it back and hope they don't notice.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Where is it indicating that it's the wrong device if you have no screen?

I ran into a similar problem with black screen over the weekend.

However my phone was not rooted.

This is how it happened.

I was using my phone then I saw the screen flicker once or twice, then it went black.

I pulled out the battery and powered up again.

The phone vibrated, and after a while the four bottom buttons light up.

The volume keys work and I could receive incoming calls, but the screen just stays black.

One thing to note is that my pocket was a little wet before I pulled out the phone to use.

Also that I did use my phone for a good 5-10 mins before it went black.

What I am trying to determine is if it is a software issue or hardware.

Are the bottom button lights separate from LCD screen, so that even if they light up it could still mean LCD is bad?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
[Sony Tablet S] agc93:
Hi all,

Has anyone with a SGPDS1 Official Sony Tablet Cradle checked the pinout on that power connector compared to the normal one. I know it just uses the stock AC adapter to power the charging cradle, but the pinout must be different somehow for the Tablet to be able to tell when it enters the Dock.

Has anyone been able to decode the Chumby Feed app (I don't have it on mine) to see whether it uses the standard Android manifest filters or is it in another undocumented Sony class?

Just looking for a bit of info so I can get my custom dock and apps to play nicely.

Thanks

Uninstall cf3d correctly i.e

* again install cf3d , load plugin etc

And play your game

**** If you use cm7 egl lib than remove it and use stock egl lib ****

**** if you move cf3d in sd card than move it to phone ****

**** cf3d setting for gangster****

Open default opengl setting

I also tried to do a wipe in stock recovery and that does not take. Once booted into ics, though nothing works, I can mount the phone to my computer but when I try to copy over a stock image to reflash the computer gets an error and won't copy.

Paper Weight

My nexus s has the fail problem too and so does my daughters,nothing will fix this problem but a new motherboard.Its a result of a hardware failure.I have tried even reseating the chips.My fix was searching the net for people selling their phone due to broken screen.I found one so far for 50 bucks and bought it.Fixed my daughters with easy by changing the board.I have spent hours upon hours reading articles on this problem.The best article i read addressing the problem was the placement of chips too close to the edge of a circuit board.After looking at the placement of the memory chip in my nexus s,I fully understand why it fails.Just by upgrading your phone and causing the phone to over heat a bit could warp the BGA seating of a chip resulting in a paper weight so to speak.This is only my response to how i feel on this subject.The end result for those with no warranty.Search the resell sites for a phone with broken screen and fix.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Googie2149:
Well, I used to have a Nook Simple touch until it was stepped on, so I'm getting a Color. Before I get it though, I'm just have a few questions.

1. For rooting this thing, how complicated is it? It's not so much it being too complex, it's more of do you have to re-partition it or downgrade to root and things like that.

2. How long does the battery last on this when you're constantly using this? I plan on mostly reading, taking notes in class, and just experimenting with it.

3. How compatible is this with Android apps with the rooted stock firmware? I've used a Nook Touch, and half the stuff didn't even launch. I'm assuming that's not the case on this.

4. How well does Cyanogen mod run from a card? Is it better to install it to the flash?

5. Is it better to root it or just use a custom rom?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
There are some people that like the rooted stock, especially since it has been upgraded by B&N. I did not mind rooted stock and it could run almost anything. It was not difficult to root. But I was constantly worried that it would get updated over the air and wipe out my root. Then I tried CM7 and I was blown away. It was fantastic.

Running CM7 on SD works great. And it runs almost as fast. I can't tell any difference myself.

I personally recommend not doing anything with stock at first. Put CM7 on SD and see how you like it. Some people like leaving stock on the main memory because the Nook reader on stock is better than on CM7. It can read kids books, textbooks, etc. (edit: And with the CM7 boot menu it is easy to boot back and forth without taking out the card.) If you end up liking CM7 and not using stock you can always move your CM7 permanently to main memory.

Battery life is not great compared to the original kindle or original nooks. The color touch screen really eats the battery. I am on mine constantly and pretty much have to charge every night. But it does sleep good if you are not using it.

I don't think you will regret getting the Color.

The guide for installing to SD is here:

There is a brand new release of CM7 (7.2-RC1). You can get it here:

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Googie2149:
Awesome! That's actually just what I was needing. I wasn't really looking forward to having to take the card out every time I wanted to rebooting.

Is there USB Host for the NC?

Edit: And another question: is it possible to configure network settings like DNS on this? I'm guessing stock won't but Cyanogenmod will.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
There is usb host built into CM. Not stock. I don't know the answer about dns. It think you can manually edit the connection settings like static ip, etc.

You don't have to. The bootloader (cyanoboot) has a menu. You can choose which you want to boot into, and you can set the default action to boot "through" sdcard to emmc unless told otherwise (if you want to change the normal boot behavior, which is to SD if it's bootable)

Hello pals, I have a international Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 from about a week now, running official MIUI ROM. Some days ago, I noticed the damn yellow thing on screen, wich is already on forums (yellow tint). The strange thing, it's that if I disable autoBrightness, and then enable it, screen comes back to normal, till I reboot device. I'd like to know if someone else here is having the same issue or something like that. It's really important to know it, because If it's hardware issue, I will restore official backup that I made from first rom, and take to service (also I have counter in 0 and no triangle :p). Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Also if it is useful, when I increase brightness it doesnt even appears, but when brightness is low (second and third photo), it's a little bit more visible

They have almost all the same features. But Liquid is a lot lighter and in turn is the smoothest and most fluent rom you will every try.

I really dont mean to come off ass abrasive but this question gets asked about 300 times a day so for once and for all. Stop asking about AOKP...DO you REALLY Want me to list how many roms use romans code in some way shape or form? Whats different about this than AOKP, well for starters its about half the size (in mb) is far more battery efficient, much more responsive ui (imo) has far less support for devices (in turn we focus our attention onto fine tuning/tweaking this one device) and has a completely different framework base not to mention this was coded/edited by liquid, Jbird, and a little bit of myself (not to mention the thousands of other people whos code goes into AOSP and this rootRom scene) I could list further differences but Ill let you do the rest of the work yourself...

For starters

Our code:

http://www.github.com/liquidsmoothroms

Their Code:

http://www.github.com/AOKP/

Jbird has done an immense amount of work on statusbar stuff and has worked very closely with TeamKang to reach a lot of these milestones together...anywho this is a totally different thing than aokp, as the man himself likes to say, flash it and see...
