[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rogerdc:
Hack your own!

The three rules of electronics:

It works better if you plug it in.

It works better if you turn it on.

It works better if the magic smoke stays inside.

Kd0axs is right. The pins are not shorted in the cable, but in the charger. I lost my OEM charger, so I bought a replacement 1 A one from Walmart. Every time I plugged it in, though, my phone thought it was a USB data port and drew a small current.

I pried the charger apart and took the wire from a twist-tie. I made a small figure 8 with the wire and dropped it over the soldered connections for the two middle pins of the charger. Finally, I crimped that short into the soft solder with some small pliers. Ever since, my phone has treated it like the high current charger it is.

Make sure you only do this with a charger rated 1 A or more. You risk violating Rule 3 if you don't.

Good luck with finding or making a charger that works!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
I have a 2A rated charger but i feel limited by the cable i have now
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Ok I was having trouble getting S-off, it was getting stuck at the first reboot and was saying waiting for device, well i fianall got to where it said to do the wire trick, and well, now the usb port isnt working on the phone! I can't reflash anything, i can get to fastboot, but my computer doesn't detect it! I'm Screwed! Please help!
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Make sure you close all terminal windows and reset the computer. I was having this problem too and simply restarting the computer and phone seemed to solve their inability to talk to each other.

Also, I was having the same problem of it hanging on "waiting for device" before I even got to do the wire trick. Oddly enough, it seemed to be related to the kernel I was using (SebastianFMs OC based off the latest ICS kernel). As soon as I tried using an earlier ICS kernel before I tried again, all the sudden it was detecting my phone correctly and would go on to the wire trick part immediately.
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
I've tried this already. still nothing:/

It won't even charge. I've tried 3 different computers, usb cords and still nothing, I'm trying to reflash my Boot.img and my recovery.img through the PH98IMG.zip method, but I can't seem to get either of them working. I'm running GB, and all the PH98IMG.zip files i've found are all for ICS.
[HTC Rezound] sindroidx:
Real quick, when you say it won't charge. Do you mean if you plug it into a wall it won't charge, even when turned off?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Pull out the battery entirely, connect the phone to the computer, and turn on the phone. You should be able to get to HBOOT via USB power. Does this work?
[HTC Rezound] Khayos:
Think this is the one you want

View attachment 1021148
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Correct, the LED light won't go on.

Nope, this doesn't work.

I'm going to try this now.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
It's going to be ok, just take a deep breath and calm down. If you're stressed out, take a break and put your feet up. Panic and stress are the only thing that will brick a rezound. Anything else can be fixed, besides of course hardware failure, and that's not your issue.
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Do i put my boot.img in here, or do i just flash it as is?
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
I'm not really stressed out, I mean i switched back my Droid 4 while the Rezound is down so i have a working phone, I just want to get my rezound up an running again... :)

What do you think could be causing this if it's not hardware failure?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Honestly I'm concerned that your phone doesn't see power or respond to USB at all anymore. Is it possible that you've broken the little tab inside the port on your phone, or is it possible that some piece of debris is shorting out the contacts in there?

you say its still possible to get to HBOOT, which means if you can remove your SDCARD and put a PH98IMG.zip file on it with the correct boot.img you can get it booting again - but I'm concerned that the USB port is damaged and therefore the phone may be useless once the battery is depleted.
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
Technically you can, it's just a huge pain in the ass, I've done it before. You have to pull the battery out at like a 45 degree angle but make sure there's enough pressure on it so it still makes contact, then slide out the sdcard with your fingernail and get the sdcard. Place the battery back in, get a card reader and put it on there, then reverse the process.
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
I just looked at usb port, and it's perfect, i blew some compressed air so it's clean.

And yeah i can get into hboot, but im having a problem flashing a PH98IMG.zip, it keeps saying "Parsing" when it finds the file, and it doesn't flash the boot.img

And I'm not worried about the battery depleting, I have a Thunder Bolt to charge the battery. But the fact that my pc won't detect my phone is worrying me.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
Yeah it sounds like something is definitely wrong with the phone... has me wondering if the USB issue and the hanging on "parsing" are related by a common malfunction or failure of the device.

Either that, or the PH98IMG.zip file you have on there is bad? I suppose that is entirely possible too... Or if somehow the installed kernel became corrupt, I could see the phone behaving the way it is.

I would try re-downloading another kernel as a PH98IMG.zip file, putting it on the SDCARD and trying all over again with a completely new download. Don't use the one you've been using, just to eliminate a bad PH98IMG.zip as the possible culprit.
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Same problem trying to flash the new kernal.

I think something is went wrong the phone's hardware.

DO you think i could make an Asurin claim on it? It already has a broken screen.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
If it has a broken usb/charging port, hell yes I'd definitely try for an exchange first on the basis that a critical part failed. If they give you grief over the damaged screen then definitely do an insurance claim on it, assuming you got insurance on it..
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Alright, I'll try for an exchange, But would they get mad because it boots to the green arrow screen?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
oh yeah, its stuck on the juopunutbear screen? that could make it a little obvious then huh? I suppose that is a bit of a risk - perhaps just an insurance claim would be best in your case. I exchanged my last unlocked/rooted Rezound, but the screen was broken and wouldn't turn on anymore. no problems for me though...
[HTC Rezound] Db0y505:
Yeah lol. Well what I suppose i could try it, or just run the battery out so it won't turn on and they can't charge it.

Well thanks for helping out, Ill post back what happens when i get off the phone.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edakraz241:
To start I'd like to thank the developers for the hard work they do to improve our experiences with our different devices. And I want to apologize if this has been answered already, I swear I googled and read the forums and could not find the answer :), but I just flashed the newest version of AOKP build 33, the newest Gapps, and DL'd the Hulu+ app and am getting the message that my device is not supported. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiftdsme:
I'm also running into the same issue, ive tried to generate an IMEI like here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103766 but it's still saying device not supported
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
This is my suggestion http://m.androidzoom.com/android_applications/media_and_video/flash-video-browser_bqqdj.html search around I'm sure you can find it for free must have a good connection to avoid to much buffer and there is audio lag because there is still work to be done before HWA will be optimal but give it a shot works for me
[Epic 4G General] VassagoX:
So, I just replaced my second Epic due to the charger port going out and no longer charging on the phone. I knew it was happening Saturday because the symptoms were the same as before. The phone thought it was charging and even counted up, but as soon as it was unplugged, it dropped faster than normal, or a restart made it *reset* to the actual phone battery level.

Today, it would not even recognize the charger at all. Luckily, Sprint had a replacement for me in-store this time, so no week wait.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?
[Epic 4G General] lmsomb:
I think mine is going bad too. Sometimes it charges and sometimes it doesn't ... did they charge you to replace your phone? How long you've had it for?
[Epic 4G General] VassagoX:
I bought mine pre-order and picked it up the day it came out from Best Buy. My first replacement was right at the one year mark. This last one didn't last a year, but since it's refurbished, there's no way to tell how much wear there may have already been on the port.

I have insurance through Sprint, there was no charge.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] mojorisin7178:
Hey I was in staples today and I saw the acer Iconia a200 tablet. I was wondering if anyone knows if it is similare to your acer iconia a100. I do not see a development section for the a200 but it looks like a really nice device.

The main thing I like is that it has a full size usb port. It also has a trgra 2 dual core with 16 gigs of ram and 16 gig hard drive and it is upgradable to ics if the spec sheet is right. Anyway if there is no development going on for it then I dont want it I need to be able to root and all that good stuff. So I was just wondering if any of you guys can help me out.

thank you,

Charlie
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] mojorisin7178:
Okay so I did some more research on it and first of all it does not have 16 gigs of ram and I did not think so even pc dont come with that. Anyway it has 1 gig. The only differences between the a100 and the a200 looks to be the size the 200 it 10.1" and the 100 7" and the 200 says that it comes with honeycomb upgradable to ICS, the 100 only says honeycomb. But I see from reading the dev threads that it looks like you guys already have a ics leak and you got a OTA update also.

SO the question is does the size matter when installing roms and cwm and things like that? I would guess yes because it is built into the build.prop but I dont know anyone have any Ideas?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] mojorisin7178:
wow no one knows anything? Thats a first oh well thanks anyway I got my answers
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] aznmode:
The a200 is a 10 inch tablet while the a100 is a 7 inch. So huge difference there. a200 has ICS a100 is just starting to roll out. Full usb is nice if youre planning to hook up xbox controller or usb hard drive, mouse or keyboard. A100 doesnt support this. a200 has 16gb ($329) 32gb($350) while a100 has 8 to 16gb. Rooting I believe is the same as rooting a100 with leaked ICS. Check the dev section posted by ZeroNull. Dual core is last years technology so IMO maybe spend the extra $70 and get an Asus Transformer pad for $399 on amazon. Right now its $392 and was as low as $380. You will get Tegra 3 which to me is a huge difference in performance in particular when using HDMI out. No lag on the TV whatsover. however if you want a 7 inch then the a100 is a pretty decent tablet. And its more pocket friendly and portable.

Theres a thread in the Asus Transformer Prime if you want to know about the 300.

Let me know if you have other questions or you can PM me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironhydroxide:
I just installed the alterROM 0.0.3 and I can't seem to find google talk, nor any .apk that will install.

help
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaintZ93:
You can get it through the market, or google gtalk apk
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KommodoreHeinz:
No, actually it has to be included in the rom or flashable gapps..

Have you checked for Talk? The newest version has been renamed.

Looks like thats a AROMA installer rom.. If you did a custom install make sure you have selected the add-on Talk 1.3...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironhydroxide:
I haven't checked for talk. its definitely not in the market.

I looked back to the topic where I downloaded the ROM.... But can't really tell where I am supposed to pull that extra bit from... Maybe ill just change ROMs
[HTC Sensation] pimpmaneaton:
Hey everyone just want to share a build that I have been running on my own for quite some time. It is using my theme found in the Theme and Apps section(which will now be discontinued). I have added several items that I find very nice and I hope you do as well.

Post #1 Basic Info & Download.

Post #2 Screen Shots- Also a link for more screen shot in 2nd post.

Post #3 Change log

Post #4 Add-on Section-

Download--Goo.im Link for 3.1

Required things...

Required Firmware - Use 3.32.401.x & 3.32.401.10x

4EXT recovery is a plus to use but not a must have.

Make sure you have correct DisH for the AOKP rom because this is controlled by the build.prop. It is set to use Dish3 right now. Please see HERE for more details on DisH files.

Install Instructions

1-Download Rom from above. Clear camera data if already running AOKP.

2-Reboot into recovery

3- FULL wipe factory reset, if coming from another AOKP a full wipe may not be necessary but HIGHLY reccomended.

4- Flash Rom-If you are doing a fresh install, DO NOT SELECT THE THEMED TALK APP IN AROMA, themed app will only work if you first had rom up and running with the orginal app first. If you want the themed one, just re-flash without wipe and select all you same options with Themed Talk app selected.

5- During aroma selections, a kernel must be selected because there is not one flashed by default!

6-Reboot into OS

7- Wait about 5 min- Don't set up or do anything yet, just let it sit and do its thing.

8- Reboot phone and once booted back into OS, set up and enjoy!

Minor bugs:

Bluetooth - ID3 Tags

Bluetooth - slow to turn on, just wait it will start

Occasional audio routing issues

Not compatible with SuperWipe.zip, suggest using 4ext recovery "Wipe all except sdcard" as an alternative, of the full wipe option that is in Aroma Installer.

Reserved just in case I need a section for Mods

SGS3 Theme/Mod

This theme was orginally created by MrMaddon so all credit does to him, I just adapted to the HDPI based instead of xHDPI.

This zip will mod your system files, to uninstall you will need to reflash the rom, you have been warned.

This will retheme system, and install the following Samsung apps.

TWlauncher

2 Nice Weather widgets, one of them force closes when you touch it to interact with it, but functions fine other wise.

S-Voice

Apollo Music

S-Memo

Solid Explorer

Super Video

Task Manager

as well a several Samsung Live Wallpapers

Very nicely done theme and the launcher is very smooth, give it a go if you like.

gonna try now just downloading

This looks great and I really like everything except...youtube doesn't seem to work correctly? It will play but only in portrait mode, if I turn it to landscape I just get sound but the picture becomes snow? Is this a known bug or is something wrong with my phone?

Call me picky but does this ROM fix the issue of transition animations in ICS not fading with transparency? If it does I'll use it :)

Saw it in most OpenSensation ROMs but was too lazy to try and debug/fix it.

So I can't recievebmms. Anyone know why? My apn is good and i couldn't find anything on it. Thanks

OP updated to v0.9 with Beats included in rom, not an option as of right now. Let me know what you guys think, testers confirm that it does work, but may not be up to par with a Sense build with Beats.
[HTC Sensation] basscheck12:
Downloading now, will report back once up and running. Not that it matters but just curious, does beats notification work?
[HTC Sensation] KCuadrado:
I had some crazy issues running the original aokp m5. For example: If I was starting to charge the phone when it had 20% battery left and rebooted, it would jump 20% more (It would have 40%), and if I rebooted into recovery, I had 20-25%. Battery readings from the ROM were what made me go back to Sense. I was wondering if someone using this base can tell me if it behaves like that. I like aokp a lot and I might flash this tonight.
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Bluetooth won't start
[HTC Sensation] montez.061-:
Will poweramp work on the new build??
[HTC Sensation] pimpmaneaton:
Im not sure give her a try. If it didnt before, I dont think I changed anything that would help it. TO be honest I dont know if I am going to keep prosuing this Beats, don't think I can get it up to par with what a Sense Rom has, but what MusicFX has to offer seems very nice for time being.
[HTC Sensation] krohme:
Downloading.. will report back a detailed review regarding beats audio and overall performanc

---------- Post added at 12:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 AM ----------

I thought poweramp was not working because of the sound mods chosen during aroma installation? :confused:

Bro fully functioning beats & poweramp is all this rom needs to become a legendary Rom .
[HTC Sensation] pimpmaneaton:
Yeah I am just finding that beats seems to be more than just adding files. I took elengancia roms framework.jar and dexompiled to find that beats is tied in there. I'm guessing that it is also in com.htc-resources.apk. So I personally don't see how a fully functional port is possible. But I am no master at this Android stuff yet so I may be wrong (which is very possible).

Launched from one mean machine hopped up on some AOKP!!
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
So only the beats mod is what changed between builds. I don't really care about beats so I'll wait for the next build to flash
[HTC Sensation] krohme:
Does poweramp open for u? on mine it FC's
[HTC Sensation] Dano79:
I haven't flashed it yet on the road still at work
[HTC Sensation] SmokyM79:
Poweramp works on mine, I found for me it was the Sony Xloud engine that was stopping it from working.
[HTC Sensation] jmcdonald58:
works fine for me
[HTC Sensation] Wagedroid:
Bluetooth anyone ?
[HTC Sensation] papikev:
Can you run faux kernel beta 006 with this rom? Any drawbacks to it? I read that tamcor might even be better with this particular build. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards.
