if 32 mb is used, then i think you'll need to format the sdcard too.......

which rom was you flashing?
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1trand1r:
what type of backups do you have?....e.g. : data.ext2/4.tar, data.img(data) or sdext.ext2/4.tar or sd-ext.img(sd-ext)??

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prohank:
I did it actually...still i get to see 32 mb and sometimes even 42mb,73mb,66mb on the partitioned part.i formatted through minitool.

Rom-cm7 alpha8

Original kernel-arakmars openfimg.

Switching to fugumod ultrakernel.

It was arakmars openfimg..and the backups were in. Tar format..

Silly of me i thought its a tar file so flashed sdext through odin..didn't work..lol.:D

Eventually i found that data was ext 4 so it was getting restored but sdext was ext3..and my new partitioned part was ext4..so may be it was the problem.

And for those who want to know, cm7 stock kernel makes an ext3 partition.

Can anyone tell me how to add a downloaded epub to my account. I like to sync my books between my phone and my nook and I have a lot of books on my phone that I've either downloaded from other places or edited and they don't sync thru b&n. Does anyone know how to make this happen?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Dredz:
Copy/move the epub to sdcard/nook/mydocuments.

:cool:
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] verbalshadow:
Another option is to use one of the many cloud services; dropbox Ubuntu, spideroak, etc. Set it up to sync your books folder.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] titanshadow:
I use Calibre and use the device syncing myself, but the dropbox option is a good one.

I find the the library app finds the epub files placed almost anywhere in either /media or /sdcard but the My Files/Books folder on either seems to be designed for it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] akasoldats:
Yeah, the problem is it doesnt then sync across devices. Like from the app on my phone and my nook. I here adobe digital editions lets you sync books to your actual B&N account. So I think I'll try that sometime soon.

htc inspire 4g i am wanting to try a rom other then the default one on the phone i have been looking at all the walk threws on changing i just wondering which is the best to use
[HTC Inspire 4G] Captain 0bvious:
You really need to follow the instructions of whatever ROM your installing. All of them are going to tell you to wipe everything except the SD card which will have the ROM zip file on it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Sanadrate:
ahh great HTC

-Root

-S Off

-Flash CMW

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basharno_1992:
I have a problem and i would be very thankful if anyone could help me solve it:

I looked around the guides here and on youtube and found out that installing a custom rom is much better than sticking with the original gingerbread, so that's what i did. I tried RocketRom for a while and decided that i want to try checkrom to see which is better. So i downloaded the rom, performed all the wipes (cache, dalvik and battery stats) and reset the phone to factory. However due to my immense stupidity i forgot to put the rom on the internal phone memory and i saved it on my microsd card instead. so now i'm stuck: I can't access my internal phone memory because my phone won't start (either bootloops or it shows the boot animation once and then a black screen with nothing on it). And i wasn't able to use CWM to flash the rom using my microsd card because it keeps giving me the error "unable to mount". I looked around again and read that i should format the microsd card but nothing changed and i kept getting the same error.

So this is basically it. Is there a way to access the internal phone memory with my phone turned off? If not, what should i do? I just need to paste the damn rom but i couldn't figure out what to do :S

Any suggestions will be very very appreciated, and thank you for your cooperation :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
Seems like you have issues with CWM as I can access the external sd card without problems..

I think that your only solution is to:

-flash a pre-rooted GB ROM from THIS thread

- Use Chainfire's corresponding kernel to the ROM you flashed so you can get CWM recovery, get it from HERE

- after having both rooted ROM and the CWM recovery transfer the ROM you want to the sd card and flash it from CWM Recovery

Hope this helps
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basharno_1992:
thanks

Thank you for the prompt reply, but i am still quite confused: how can i flash a rom if my phone does it boot? how will i get the rom to the phone memory? Remember the microsd card isn't working so i can't use it for flashing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matius44:
The ROMs in that thread use the .tar format and are flashed using PC Odin which uses download mode ;) follow the instructions posted there and you're out in no time hopefully :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basharno_1992:
OK

Ok which version do you recemmend? and should i use a wipe or non-wipe version?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aawshads:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scrinner:
Hey guys,

I have an international S2 I9100, that i updated to a march build of ICS. Overall its been a great experience, but there are several snags including a non-working lock screen, and some features missing.

My question is, can I return my phone to such a state (either by going back to GB for example) so that I can get the update via Kies? I could install the XPWLP(forgot the full name) 8 (That's the latest i think) but Id like to get it via kies so future updates are automatic.

I also havent rooted this device, since the roots I have seen are for the more recent builds of ICS.

Thanks in advance.

P.s First post, but a long time lurker :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
You cant return your phone to old GB version through KIES,

You have to use ODIN, to flash respective GB rom which will be upgraded to ICS latest version.

But why??? cant you directly flash latest ICS from ODIN then?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scrinner:
Actually what I want to do is, basically get to the official ICS update released by samsung, and let me preserve the ability to recieve updates via kies. Since i've flashed this old build using odin, the only way for me to get the latest/released ICS build is by using odin again. While that is fine, I want to be able to recieve updates via kies, so that i don't have a problem with future updates.

So i guess my question could also be understood as "Can i flash ics onto my phone using Odin, while preserving my ability to update with kies in the future"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
only if your region has ICS available flashing that with odin will still work on kies. you have to wipe using code for csc to work correctly.

for later

*#1234# will show you if csc is installed, if not wipe using *2767*3855# if still doesnt work you have to flash again using odin. it happens sometime with ICS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
yes you should be able to receive updates thru KEIS, provided you have flashed an official ICS from ODIN (if Samsung rolls further out ICS updates in future , so far no) for your region.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Credit to ttabbal for starting the idea in the accessories forum. With that said,

This will be a process as I'm waiting for parts. Please bare with me. I will be including pics and possibly a video of complete tear down of both batteries all the way to installation in the phone.

Requirements:

Soldering skills

Soldering supplies

18awg wire

Other things still in the process of being thought out. Stay tuned!

2- Samsung OEM 1850mah stock batteries. Can be had at various prices.

1- Seidio extended battery back plate. Quality, fitment and price were my deciding factors. $14.95 directly from Seidio plus shipping. Call them directly at customer service (832)204-1118.

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any damage. Time and patience are required.

1. Remove Samsung label

2. Remove black cap on top of battery. Pretty much falls off with sticker.

3. Peel away NFC sticker leave intact for now on battery and pcb board.

4. Break away metal tabs on end of pcb and lift away nfc antenna and pcb board.

5. Completely remove antenna and pcb.

6. Clean thermal type paste off by gently peeling at one corner followed by rubbing alcohol.

7. Remove label and peel up nfc antenna on second battery. DO NOT REMOVE!

8. Place battery that goes into phone down and put bare battery on top as in the pics. I taped them together with clear 3m packing tape.

9. Make sure eveything lines up.

10. Seidio back came in the mail! Fitment is a little weird at first but once its all snapped in, it fits fine and it has a nice feel and its not totally huge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Update

Updates:

4/23/12 ordered all parts needed, started initial process.

4/24/12 At work. Will update with more pics tonight. Have a variable temp. soldering iron in my possession as well. All items have been shipped. Pics will include tear down to bare battery without PCB and nfc antenna as well as removed paste substance that was under antenna.

Continued: Added more pics of battery stripped down with explination

4/25/12 Will take voltage readings with my fluke and simpson meters and label polarity on points on battery. Also will do some calculations to ensure the stock charger will be sufficient. Source a quality 18awg wire from work. Not much else I can do until parts come in. Getting excited about having 3700mah of prime Samsung battery power!

Continued: Second battery came. Did some more work.

4/26/12 seidio battery cover came in! No further work done.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kvizz:
uh what's going on here? i don't understand.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Two stock batteries are getting wired together in parallel to build a high quality extended battery. There is no comparison to OEM batteries. The after market stuff is crap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djras111:
The problem will be the charging circuit. Both batteries will only get half the current they are expecting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Incorrect. 3800mah will charge at .5A in approximately 6 hours. I'm not sure what the rating is on the stock charger but if its 1A then it would take approx 3 hours for a full charge. Here will be no charging issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mistawolfe:
You're a go getter! I'll be keeping my eye on this. Nice work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] malibu_23:
Crazy what a recession will drive people too...just carry the 2nd battery in your pocket...why risk frying your phone on a handmade extended battery?

but i respect u for doing it. good luck man.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
How would it fry? They are batteries wired in parallel. I deal with high cost electronics everyday and know what's going on here its a battery, as long as its wired with correct polarity there will be zero issues. Positive to positive, negative to negative. Tried the whole second battery back in the day with an incredible. That lasted one day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Come to think of it I'd be afraid of the second battery developing an internal short and melting in my pocket.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evilkokonut:
I have my second battery on the way hopefully to be here by this weekend. Can't wait
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
Just so you know soldering this ***** will not be for the faint of heart. Talk about tight quarters.:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] truthkillszz:
if you could get this to work. make a bunch and sell them at a lower price point than the aftermarket extended batts while still making a profit for your hard work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttabbal:
Exactly. :)

It's not too bad if you have soldering experience, but it's not a beginner level project.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttabbal:
It works fine. Mine has been running for over a week, no problems. Mine is for GSM, but the idea and process are basically the same.

Selling them.. One would need to find a much cheaper source of stock batteries to even match the cost of an expensive aftermarket like Mugen and have any profit margin. And the covers. Might be able to source those cheap from China in bulk. The Samsung batteries though, those would be hard to get cheap enough. There's no point in doing it with cheap China batteries, you simply can't compete with the source on cheap POS batteries. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] extensive:
Where are the pics of the finished product?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davwman:
as dissapointing as this may sound this project is dead. My nexus is traded and I am no longer following through I do have a sedio extended battery back plate I am willing to donate though to someone who wants to continue off my work.

What's the cid? to get cid "fastboot getvar cid " from fastboot.. Your firmware is old one and the rom it has might be incompatible.. That's why bootloop is happening

Good its European unbranded one

Get an ICS RUU... And run it (you are already on 1.19.0000 so revolutionary is not possible)

Here is the shipped rom thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1074559

Get something along this line

RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.350…

If it's xe then use this one

RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R_Radio_11.69.3504.…

Remember to run RUU from fastboot screen..

Also the RUU will install ICS with 1.27 hboot

Try running RUU from unlocked bootloader first if it didn't work then relock bootloader again and run the RUU

[HTC Sensation] Huxi:
Ok I'm gonna try but that is not the official cid i changed it to HTC__001 from 11111111. Should I take the RUU from the provider if there is one with ICS or use the EU one because of the cid?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Right now you got HTC__001 that's all matters. The ruus I've mentioned are EU ones (based on your cid) and also ICS

You need to run RUU based on your cid...

Also once you've updated to ICS you can soff now..

Thanks dude. I'm now on HBOOT 1.27 and the ROM you told me. It isn't a XE.

But still the same problem it has boot loops. The boot brakes up suddenly after the sound start and the Quiet..... is coming. Any suggestions?

What about radio? Is bootloader not showing radio?

Did you run the RUU from unlocked bootloader earlier?

Can you unlock it via HTC again

Then check whether bootloader is showing radio too

If not relock again and run RUU again

Even after doing the above steps if it's still bootlooping

Then extract the rom.zip from RUU you've used

Guide here

http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/extract-rom-from-ruu

Extract the boot_secure.img from rom.zip

Then flash it using fastboot command

"fastboot flash boot boot_secure.img "

I tryed to flash with unlocked bootloader but Error 155 occured.

I pulled the SD-card off because there is a PG58130.zip on it and

now the radio version is on the bootloader screen too.

Also i searched for the boot_secure.img in the ROM.rar but there

was only a boot_singed.img.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
sorry its a typo...you need boot_signed.img only :o :D

Also can you post the radio ?

[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Dude im lost...

i dont know what your problem is ...this should work:confused:

you didn't got any errors while flashing the boot_signed.img right?

also you got 3.32 firmware's Radio

and you successfully ran ICS RUU (without any errors right?)

there should not be any problem ...but you still got bootloops :eek:

you got radio in bootloader after doing relock right?

im looking for answers....just one last try...

relock the bootloader

then run RUU from fastboot again...

(let me know if you got any errors)

in the mean time ill search/ask for these weird bootloops you are having
[HTC Sensation] Huxi:
I got no errors while flashing boot_signed.img and ICS RUU with relocked

bootloader. I got radio since I took off the sd card. Dont know why.

EDIT: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/688/95062444.jpg/

That is what i get when i relock the phone but after the fail it says relocked so i can flash RUU.

And I made a little mp4 what the phone is doin' when I want to start ICS:

http://www.vidup.de/v/NcI5d/
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
before running RUU from fastboot again try this

"fastboot erase cache"

then run RUU from locked bootloader again

---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

EDIT:

if that still didn't work then

extarct rom.zip form RUU ..keep it in your adb folder

then run these commands one after another

fastboot erase cache;

fastboot oem rebootRUU;

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

doing it this way gives you the output of whats happening in the terminal. which is useful as to why it doesn't boot
[HTC Sensation] Huxi:
I tried all of these steps and nothing worked yet. Did you saw my edit a post ago?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
yeah i've seen it

you got no errors at all while running the 3 commands?

after 2nd command your phone should have a black screen with HTC on it

and did RUU exited successfully ?

anyways

join the irc link in my signature...there are lot of people much experienced than me

they might got a solution

tell them the problem again ...

in the mean time ill talk with them

Ehhhm the RUU exited not successfully. The bar one le black screen shows like 95% and the terminal says finished.

Random shut down.

I have a htc sensation bought from India. I flashed two ics roms esp the aosp vi 4.0.1 and currently the ahrd 6.6.x. Yesterday i flashed the ahrd. The problem i am facing is that the device shuts down when it is in use. As in the device boots properly after the rom is flashed but after some hours, it switches off. I think i am doing everything correct. Rooted too. When i remove the sim card and start the device, it works fine. Any suggestion? I dont want to use this device as an iPod. Can anyone help me out with links to the correct files to be downloaded?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
These random shutdowns are mostly due to either battery issues or some instability... As you are saying your phone is working fine without sim.. May be its because the radio/ril is not flashed properly... You can get the asia radio/ril.. And can flash it. Then check it if it's causing the issue. Also the random reboots might be due to kernel so whenever you got a shutdown.. Then reboot and check for a file /proc/last_kmesg.. This will give complete idea as to why random boot happened to the kernel Dev.. So i suggest you to submit. that message in the kenel thread.. Which will help him immensely.

For radio/ril thread.. Please check the reference thread.. Which is a sticky in sensation Android thread.
