[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novaproject:
Thanx again.

I tried the chineese sbf but it didn't work. Same black screen...

Is there any way to instal .zip rom (like CM7) with program like RSD lite?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
Did you do a data wipe from stock recovery after installing the chinese SBF?

I dint quite get your second question! If you asked :

a.) Can zip be flashed using RSD lite.. No!! You cant. RSD lite understand only proper SBF files with correct checksum!

b.) Can zip be installed from stock recovery: No!! To instal a zip from stock you need the zip to be signed by motorola. That is why the whole concept of 2nd init comes up! It is a recovery menu which comes before the system boots up
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novaproject:
It was the first question :p

Yes, i did the data wipe, and nothing... I think, no other SBF works except mine... I don't know what to do now. :(
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
Sorry dint see that! I am afraid i think the SBF you flashed has BL7 as someone in the thread mentioned earlier! just to be sure:

1.) Download this .

2.) Extract the sbf and check the cmg versions. Check the version for cmg39.

3.) If it is 7. I am afraid there is no way out yet!! For the time being you are stuck with that SBF!! You are unable to boot because the SBF I gave you and most others has BL6 !!

Sorry again as I dint thought of this possibility earlier! And don't worry much. For now reflash the SBF that is working for you and wait till a way to root it is found!!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
And speaking of it I welcome myself to the group!! :D

Just got back my Defy+ from service center and after I switched it ON I saw the lockscreen interface was different! A quick check told me that it is the latest SBF they flashed. I kept my fingers crossed. Once back home I checked and found this phone is not rootable!!! :( Now I am stuck too!!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novaproject:
Wooow, they flashed you BL7??

OK, man, im gonna donate you one AK47!

[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
I have a Evo 3D on hboot 1.50 with the latest cwm touch recovery. I was booted into slot 1 rom and tried to delete slot 2 and install a new rom, unfortunately I deleted the rom i was booted in (slot 1) and was wondering will it break recovery, or is there a way to get to my phone rom in this situation? All apps are force closing on me and im too scared to cut my phone off to check for myself, fearing that i may have bricked my phone. Please let me know what I am to do
[HTC EVO 3D] cleeray:
How can I turn back to orjinal rom ?
[HTC EVO 3D] Moonbloom:
So you have a phone ROM, and then you were booted into SD Slot 1 ROM, and then while in SD Slot 1 ROM, you tried to delete SD Slot 2 ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
You need to fastboot to recovery, go to your boot manager folder and go inside the phone Rom folder, find the update zip and flash it.

sent from my downgraded EVO 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
dont think your phone is bricked
[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
^^This is the correct answer^^........Bootmanager doesn't touch anything on your phone. Your recovery and your phone rom will still be intact. I would also suggest watching the video tutorial and reading the manual on Bootmanager as these issues are covered in there.
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
he is correct... and if it still doesnt boot up the most youll have to do after that is manually flash the boot.img file in the phonerom folder... it happens at times.... i use this program too and have several ROMS i switch between
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Hey folks,

recently there rumors about a hidden NFC chip that will be enabled with a future update. However WMPU is not really known for their trustworthy sources and articles so it seems unlikely that the Lumia 800 sports a NFC chip.

I took this article and rechecked some teardowns and rechecked the known chip specifications. As you can see in the Picture below, the device is equipped with an Broadcom BCM4329 chip.

According to the Broadcom product specifications this chip supports both receiving and sending via FM. I contacted Nokia wether this Feature will be enabled or not but I did not receive an answer to my question. Has any of you guys checked with Nokia regarding the FM capabilities?

The Picture below was labeled "unknown chips". Has anyone an idea about the functionality of those? I'm just curious :D Maybe WMPU is right and there is NFC hidden somewhere ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Maybe true, Nokia's probably holding there guns as many are saying that NFC may not be so revolutionary as they say, it just may be a major flop. I mean really how easier and different does NFC make things, just make's your mobile phone more expensive to thieves and more vulnerable to security flaws. It's just another headache.
[Nokia Lumia 800] demeics:
why would they hide it ?
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Maybe because the current OS dosn't Support NFC. NokiaHelps gave a very inconclusive answer via twitter
[Nokia Lumia 800] Boburto:
They look more like power regulation chips than anything related to wireless.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Many phones have chips that are capable of FM Tx, but it doesn't mean it can be enabled.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul-ac:
this problem really stops me to use an ics rom... i was on at least on infinitium, then i bought sd card. now i am flashing gb rom...

The reason is no sd card and no fm radio....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ishangoyal:
External sd is present as /mnt/emmc in ICS roms.. you can use root explorer to link that folder with any folder of your choice..

And it is detected by PC just as internal sd card is in almost all present builds of ICS roms..

As for FM, Spirit FM is an alternative for it though haven't tried it myself...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lexrsk:
No FMRadio is why i am still on GB

As for Spirit FM i have heard that it may break the external speaker..

Is it confirmed that NTT Docomo version is pentaband too? (HSPA 850/900/1700/1900/2100) Or is there an error in Negri Electronics specifications? (Not that it would surprise me)
[Member-Found Deals] kirdroid:
Negri is good at updating the spec or providing right info. I got the info from their twitter feed. I think it's best to call and confirm before buying. My guess is it is pentaband even for the NTT Docomo version.
[Member-Found Deals] tspx23:
Two things to point out about the docomo version

1 - Permanent root does not work.

2 - it has the docomo logo.
[Member-Found Deals] kirdroid:
Can you flash the generic google firmware yakju or whatever its called and then everything works like then other Nexus's?
[Member-Found Deals] tspx23:
not sure I don't have the phone a buddy of mine picked it up and he said whenever he flashed a new rom he lost root

he got it for 300, apparently that's the going rate for this phone in japan
[Member-Found Deals] CB620:
I wonder if those are the same ones are dailysteals
[Member-Found Deals] Alien987:
Not sure about the them being good with the info, I sent them a couple of errors that they never fixed in their page, right now I remember pointing them that they were using pictures of Optimus Black in the Optimus 2X page and they told me "the only difference is the back cover" and so far they never fixed it(https://negrielectronics.com/lg-p990h-optimus-2x-speed-black-unlocked.html), so don't trust them that much ;)

In any case thanks for the info, I'm more interested in maybe getting it cheaper via other channels if the phone is pentaband, but I need to confirm this because http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3348&c=samsung_galaxy_nexus_sc-04d_samsung_prime states "UMTS800 (B6), UMTS2100 (B1)" only.
[Member-Found Deals] Segnaro:
You can get it much cheaper from amazon.co.jp and yahoo japan auctions.

Just use one of those services nerds use to buy video games and anime from Japan. :D
[Member-Found Deals] enigma00:
I surely hope not. FWIW, this says the model number is "SC-04D" whereas dailysteals says "i9250" (and I haven't seen any variant of the i9250 yet). Also, the fact that there was a white version strongly indicates it's the i9250 (unless there is also a white version of the docomo model).

I guess there is only one way to find out ;)
[Member-Found Deals] Ghostello88:
It isn't the dailysteals ones. The last ones I had from them were from Poland.

Sometimes when I am charging my battery off usb it will jump to charging complete after a short charge but if I unplug and plug back in and will go back down to 70% or whatever and keep going. Does this happen to anybody else? Maybe a sign of a bad battery, or do I need to calibrate it somehow?

Ok guys anyone out there who can help me when i go to settings then about phone status in the my phone number its not there ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sexywacko:
Im pretty sure thats to do with your sim card. I had that issue a while back.

And the way I fixed it was put it in an old nokia. And save the number as you. Or something along those lines. You can google it and it should be easy enough to find.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tadman2010:
Thanks for that will try that cheers
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dancat:
I did update the number in my sim card when i had a nexus one with CM7 on it. Somewhere in the menus, CM7 had this possibility.

Try to search about this on the nexus forums, maybe you get a better hint ;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwilightLoz:
I want to overclock my phone in order for the phone to get faster although my main priority is to play HD games without drop in frame rates. Thus my reason to overclock.

In order to overclock, I need to unlock the bootloader and also flash a custom kernal. Now this is where the problem comes in. The offical ICS is around the corner for Xperia Play (late april/early may) and I want ICS on my phone. I dont want a custom ICS because I dont find it legit although I would like the bloatware to be removed on the offical ICS...

Now my questions are:

* Should I unlock the bootloader and flash a custom kernal, because if I do then I wont be able to update to the offical ICS rom

* If I dont want any bloatwares on my phone, would I have to flash a custom ICS ROM?

* I'm currently on 2.3.4 and I did un-install some bloatwares (e.g. sony ericsson sync and some other useless apps) through titanium backup although when I checked my phone and memory card memory, it was still the same as before deleting those apps. Why is this?

* And is it possible to flash the original kernal and lock the bootloader so what I have left over is a ordinary xperia play but rooted?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
1. You only won't be able to OTA update to ICS, you can still update with flashtool once ICS is released.

2. Root is all you need to get rid of bloatware. Gaining root access is immensely easy on any firmware, with an unlocked bootloader

3. Maybe try using SD Maid? It removes some lingering data from uninstalled apps

4. Yes you can re-lock your bootloader and re-flash the stock firmware fairly easily
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christianedward:
Go for it, there are so many ROM to try and when ICS officially comes out you'll be able to download way before your carrier will get round to sending OTA.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TwilightLoz:
But I heard that if I flash a custom Kernal, the wifi or 3G will become buggy and wont work as normal... is this true?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christianedward:
Some of the earliest ICS ROMs had these issues but you can always flash another Kernel or the whole stock ROM and you'll be back to where you were.

I'd start with flashing Doomlords Kernel then you can make a Clockwork Mod backup and you'll always have a easy route back.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
That all depends on the kernel, DooMKerneL works for many people just fine for both 3G and Wifi
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kakatoori:
When you use doom kernel dont forget to use the modules...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoobie-doo:
Very screwy behavior on my Captivate. Hoping someone out there can help me diagnose this..

Captivate is running stock KK4; rooted via kernel swap method; some AT&T bloatware frozen in TiBu - no other image changes

The Captivate is struck on the swipe to unlock screen. I sync this phone to my company's Exchange server and have a PIN-lock policy enforced. I believe that it goes to the PIN at 15 minutes. The clock and swipe screen are showing a time less than 15 minutes after the last time I had used the phone; the screen was dark until I pressed power once, but now I can not make the screen go back to sleep. Plugging the phone into the computer does show the phone connected, and the Live Wallpaper is still running (i.e., it is not frozen in place, which I also see some times).

EDIT: After rebooting (vol-up and power does respond); it looks like something may have been up the same time as I was frozen with my phone signal - yellow instead of green; don't know if that was a coincidence or not

Any one have any ideas as to what may be going on here, and how I would remedy this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeeper11:
Probably asking the obvious, but can you get into recovery or D/L mode to possibly reflash the rom?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoobie-doo:
I can, and I can reboot, and have the phone work again for the next 24-36 hours before it freezes again.

I am hoping that someone has an idea of the root cause of this issue, bad flash or otherwise, to try to solve this once and for all. To be honest, I have had horrible experiences with GB on the Captivate, but since this is my work phone, paid for, and technically owned by my employer, I have been hesitant to stray too far from stock (heck, if AT&T's tethering manager could figure out that a corporate phone plan with tethering should be allowed to tether, I would have stayed fully stock:rolleyes:).

I'm betting that it's bad behaved software, rather than a bad flash due to the unpredictable nature of this problem, but I am not sure of a way to capture logs in a consistent basis that would allow me to trap what actually goes wrong to solve this. GB seems to get progressively less stable the more apps are installed, but I don't know if that is the root cause, or just the increasing likelihood of installing something with an insidious bug. But short of stripping everything off and losing the advantage of having a phone with apps, I don't know how to solve this and the soft reboot issue that also came with the first GB leaks and never went away.

Sigh.

OR, you can back up your current sdcard contents into a folder on a computer,turn off phone, insert new sdcard into phone,turn on phone, reconnect to computer. Copy and paste the contents of your sdcard backup folder,minus the main folder name you filed it under, then reboot.

Hi

I'm wondering what you think is the best custom Froyo ROM. I want to downgrade to Froyo because I am afraid getting called by ghosts :( (:p), and I think the stock ROMs are way too slow.

I have been considering "froyo acurarom maximum velocity new line v3", but I think the OC for CPU and GPU are too high. I am reading about people getting constant reboots, in the ROM thread.

Any recommendations based on your experience? :)
[LG Optimus 3D] omgomg:

*Its a little unstable if you constantly leave it on 1300mhz, just use setCPU to turn it down to 1ghz stock clock speed when youre not playing games or running cpu intensive applications. it'll idle fine on 1ghz

I've tried decompiling the APK to see what I can gather from it. At least based on what I'm understanding, I don't think the "primary" software is the photowall.apk itself at all. It appears to just be the setting screen, and configuration related things.
