[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilswizy:
Thanks for your reply but what i want to do is just unroot it and revert back to stock but the kernel i installed has a custom theme so its all different i tried flashing but it doesnt clean out anything the kernels are still there and my wifi,3g and service dont work does that mean its bricked?

Could you help me get rid of the custom theme so i can just bring it to the phone shop and get it fixed for free?

And also could this be a hardware failure if my connections stopped working after installing some kernel/rom?
[HTC Desire S] Eyoka:
Ultimately I wish to install custom ROMs but first I would like to make sure I understand what I'm doing.

I would like to do an Nandroid backup before changing any partition, however after the official unlock my device still doesn't meet the requirements for Nandroid - the recovery I've got doesn't have adbd and busybox - and I cannot fastboot flash a new recovery unless the device is ENG S-OFF. Neither can I boot from a custom image in fastboot, it just says "FAILED (remote: not allowed)". So what are my options if I want to backup of my boot, recovery and system partitions, without having to overwrite them first.

Your comments are much appreciated.
[HTC Desire S] johnrangoo:
After using HTC unlock my device was wiped clean. Didn't know before everything would be gone. Is there a way to backup before?

I have an epic 4g and it is stuck in elair 2.1....when it goes to recovery screen to update it wont says status 7 failed or something to that effect. There is a root bin file playlogo missing. Ive tried to find the factory rom to start over but all the download links are old and missing after they are clicked on. My question is can i root straight to the cyanogenmod 9? Thanks for any help...I have searched for answers but like i said all the threads are extremely old...thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Lol =] I feel your pain man. There are new stock images you'll need to flash first. Then you can root with the most recent way there is. If you would rather me do them I offer rooting services remotely via teamviewer 7 or give me a minute and ill provide you with the links necessary.

Oh and thanks for posting in Q&A.

So if you feel like a lone ranger and want to do this yourself here are the links to the video how to's.

1. Follow this video How to Unroot/Unbrick Epic 4g, this will put you on the latest stock image. Yes it says unroot or unbrick... ignore that. Just follow this. Some pre-requsites would be to make sure you have the drivers for the epic installed, make sure the cable you are using isnt the stock one and is of good quality.

2. Then once finished and on stock use this video to root it.

Many of you prefer a "loud" vibration motor, many don't. This is a fix for those who find the vibration of your phone too loud and or rattling. This is an init d script I found on the Desire forums that works well. Extract the appropriate script (in the low or medium folder)from the attached zip file and place it in you system/etc/init.d folder, set permissions and reboot. Additionally, the default value is 3000 but can be adjusted to you liking(trial and error). Set mine to 2500 and all is well. I take no credit for this, I only found after searching for a solution to my loud motor.
[HTC EVO 3D] MorePAIN:
My girlfriend personally likes it.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
Thanks.

To anyone wondering, if you want to set a custom vibration level, open it with notepad and change the number after "echo" to whatever you want.
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
Just remember, "decreasing" the value is perfectly safe but dont "increase" too high as this is increasing voltage to the motor. It's a tiny little thing....don't want to fry it!
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
I might overvolt it a bit more then, the housing glue came off my the left side of my evo so it bends every time I swipe right to left on the screen, if I burn the motor out maybe sprint will have to fix it for me lol
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
If you want a replacement, brick the phone on purpose and tell them it happened while you were asleep. If they ask if you rooted it, say no.
[HTC EVO 3D] bmtdan:
Ah thank you for this I personally want mine to be louder and heavier
[HTC EVO 3D] P.Mobile:
ok.. yes im a noob!!!! so i put the file on my sdcard.. now how do i get it to system ect init.d??? sorry guys.. lol i think i did it>??? rebooting now :)
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Would do that but have a mac and don't know if the live cd works for Mac and no downgrade=nothanks
[HTC EVO 3D] lpjzfan2005:
Root explorer or es file explorer

Also on the overvolt, it worked but my touchscreen sucked, apparently it drew power away from the digitizer?? Made my screen almost unresponsive... Back to stock vibrate :/

Thanks, the low setting is perfect for me.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revxx14:
I haven't been able to find anything on this, but are there any plans for Mojang to port Minecraft Pocket to Windows Phone? And if not, is there any way that a third party dev here on XDA could some how get it done via a Java emulator or something?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gloamin:
There has been some threads on the minecraft forums regarding this in the past, but never any real reply from anyone important as far as I know. Based on that, I'd say an official port of Minecraft PE for Windows Phone doesn't seem very likely in the near future.

While it's not exactly what you're looking for, and I'm sure you're already well aware of it, there's always Minecraft clones like Survivalcraft.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revxx14:
Yea, already aware of SurivalCraft...I was hoping with the release of the XBLA version of Minecraft we might have got a bit of news reguarding Pocket Edition. I was also hoping that Mojang would want to put out PE for Windows Phone to get rid of copycats like SurvivalCraft...

Oh well, I guess the reason I couldn't find anything on it is because there's been no news whatsoever. In fact, this post is the first thing to come up when I search "Minecraft Pocket for Windows Phone" on Google.

hi guys, i really need help with this, i was updating my friends phone from froyo to gingerbread. the update was successfully done on the galaxy fit, but the problem was, i accidentally installed the update for the galaxy fit on the galaxy ace, w/c caused the screen to go colored and it wont even go to recovery mode nor do the hard reset on the phone. i also tried to reinstall the correct package on the galaxy ace but the computer wont even recognize the phone. so i need help on what to do. ive been searching all over the internet for the solution to this. hope you can help me out with this.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
He said he can't even get Odin to detect his phone , what makes you think Odin will work ?

@OP I think you might wanna send it to service center.....

Ace-ing all tests.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MysteryEmotionz:
He said the computer won't recognize the phone. Maybe you need to learn how to read. When using Odin or cwm to flash anything it doesn't touch download mode. That's a untouched partion.

Op try to boot into download mode then connect your phone n see if Odin recognizes the phone. If so you can use Odin to restore the phone.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] TakuSkan:
If it's a Windows based PC, he should check to make sure he has USB drivers installed. If the drivers aren't installed, when he connects the phone to the PC it should detect the phone and try to install USB drivers. If it doesn't find any it will ask for a location to install them from. I forget if I installed them separately, or if they got installed when I loaded Kies.

But if he has the proper USB drivers installed, and the phone doesn't show up in Windows Explorer as a new drive in a few seconds... it's probably a problem with the phone that might mean sending it back to Samsung for repairs.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muddog7998:
I stole the micro sd reader from an old phone of mine and was wondering if it'd be at all possible to add it to the motherboard in some way, or if I could make it fit as slimly as possible on the exterior via an otg cable. I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1587019

but, I wanna know if there's a way I can keep the use of my micro usb port.

This link, http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Teardown/7182/1, has the entire teardown of the Galaxy Nexus if it will help at all.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You won't be able to add it internally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muddog7998:
Would I be able to snip the male end of an otg cable, solder the wires to the internal female micro usb connector, run the female end out to a usb stick?

I mainly want to be able to maintain the use of the usb cable. That and to not have an inch long stick coming out of my micro usb port like in the link of my first post...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayiskon:
A simple solution: sell ur gnex and buy an S2 or sensation
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muddog7998:
Had a sgs2 but gave it to a friend. I like the feel of this phone better. Plus, I like having something to do. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I don't understand. You'd rather wire a cable so its permanently dangling off your phone vs buying a detachable USB cable? Maybe mod it into a case?

I like the idea of adding one internally but I dunno man. Maybe to just add and forget. Like maybe soldering a microSD directly to the board?

16gb should be plenty for mobile needs. If you need more, a cloud based storage seems like the better choice here.

I just can't wrap my head around why people feel the need to carry all that data around all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muddog7998:
I wanna have something that I can throw my music onto, have all my backups on, have a rom or two thrown on there as well, alongside a couple movies. I'm military and we're currently working 17 hour shifts. I like having plenty of movies, and internet sucks, cloud storage is a no no. Being able to have something I can throw a few movies on in just a few minutes via mass storage and be good to go sounds awesome to me. while yes, I can work something into a case to where I can just use a cable WOULD work, it's a big hassle since that's just more I have to carry around. My cat has also decided that my cables for my phones are delicious. I've lost quite a few in the past few weeks.

Being able to buy the necessary cables and crap would take at least a month to get where I am. The local stores around me really don't delve into ANYTHING technological. I have to order everything online.

I would mainly just like to have something I can transfer stuff to and from within minutes, not hours. If not adding an sd card, please point me to some unseen by me partitioning of the internal memory.

Sorry if I'm ranting. Just explaining myself :)

Thanks for the link, I'll try and get a hold of the guy and see if there is something we can both come up with to be able to add a micro sd into the phones/tablets. If so, pictures, tutorials, and the whole shabang will be posted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
I don't know if you guys noticed, but if you pry off the battery door you'll notice a big hunk of plastic off to the side of the camera that is shaped suspiciously like a MicroSD card slot that was covered up at the last minute. You can see a similarly-shaped slot fully realized as an actual MicroSD reader on the Galaxy S3.

Basically this proves the Galaxy Nexus had a MicroSD card slot originally, but it was removed from the final design. This detail is strangely overlooked from the teardowns of the device, and I would be curious to see if someone could take a closer look at the mainboard to see if there are four suspiciously unused contacts or pins that you could solder to for putting the card reader back in. I'm just not adventurous enough myself to take my phone apart, and I don't know enough about the electronics in these devices to be able to point out non-obvious things like unused pins.

What do you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
Would be cool if you could mount a external portable 1 terabyte hard drive via micro usb..

Edit: lol i found this app Stickmount made Specially for GNex so you can plug ANY usb drive with an otg cable so guess all my music (about 38500 songs/3.5 months playlist) and my movies collection (about 200 movies) all in my 1 terabyte ext hd usb can come with me now everywhere xD

Above the SIM Card slot; could it be?

Most likely not; they're probably just debugging test points, but interesting nonetheless. It's unlikely that this discussion will lead to anything productive, but you make a good point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Muddog7998:
Heck, if I could solder in th cables to the micro usb internal port, have a small switch to connect the reader between pins 4 and 5 of the inside, what type of speeds would I be looking at? The person in the kindle forums was able to get the wires soldered, and from my understanding, it showed up temporarily. I haven't really seen anything else coming out of it. I did see that I would require a swich since a usb cable has only 4 wires, but the port has 5, and if I were to solder the 4th and 5th together, I would lose adb, charging, and usb mount on pc. I don't want to lose either of those, but, I do have adb wireless, and extra battery with charger, and I also have the wifi file transfer that works phenomanally.

I'm extremely tempted to just try it to see what happens. Throw stickmount onto my phone, plug a micro sd in, and see the data transfer rate. Possibly do it over this upcoming weekend. If anyone has any tips, advice, a "don't wire this while doing this", that would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Pro tip 1: kids don't try this at home.

Pro tip 2: don't do it if you can't afford another phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BossHaug:
If you could find a surface mount Microsd reader with the correct amount of pins, the board has 10 empty points p but I was searching and I could only find sd readers with max 9 pins, I'll keep searching though.

Also I don't think it would be too dangerous of a procedure,just put a little solder on each pad then set the reader over it so the pins line up and hit each point with the iron and a little more solder. However I wouldn't use a hako or anything that's way to risky. Then just leave the back off and test it, and if it worked modify the back plate so you can actually use it. I'm not saying try it but those are my thoughts..

Lunarish CNA A2

Here is a theme madeup of parts borrowed from No Title NS4G Aokp Theme mostly, with some parts fromPurple Haze Epic 4g Theme and Krinyo's cyan GSII theme.

Instructions

This is a full rom with absolutely zero xml edits so it should be treated like every other ICS rom/theme and only flash from the EL26 CWM. If you don't know how to do this, see any ICS rom thread and follow the directions exactly. All I did was copy png's from various other themes and insert them into the original CNA rom. Since it is the full rom it isn't necessary for you to download and install the original. I don't have time to make it just a theme.zip or I would. This is just something I use on my phone because I like a little color in my rom's. If anyone wishes for me to take this down, just send me a pm. None of this is original work.

Warning: You flash this at your own risk just like everything else you do to your phone. I will not be held responsible for anything that goes wrong.
