can buzzdowngrade utility can help to gain soff.. please tell me any method to gain soff with minimum damage possibilities
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Its not necessary to get S-OFF if you want to install custom ROMs or install overclock capable kernels. All you need is a Custom Recovery called ClockworkMod Recovery. You can flash Clockworkmod Recovery via Fastboot using this post as a guide:

- Download this attachment and extract it to any folder (eg: C:\fastboot)

http://xdaforums.com/atta...1&d=1308537074

- Download CWM IMG Image for Wildfire (Buzz) from here:

http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec...0.2.0-buzz.img

- Place that IMG file along with the 4 files from the attachment in the same folder you created

- Now, turn off your Wildfire, connect to PC, and turn on in HBoot

- Navigate to Fastboot and Select it

- Open a Command Prompt Window (Start > Run > cmd)

- Type the following one by one and press Enter (It is assumed you created the folder in C Drive and have named it fastboot)

- cd\

- cd fastboot

- fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img

- This should produce 2 lines of code - SENDING RECOVERY and WRITING RECOVERY. If both states OK at the end, you should have CWM installed successfully after this.

Once you have CWM installed, follow this post to install Custom ROMS / Kernels:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8926457&postcount=4

However, if you necessarily want S-OFF, then yes, the BuzzDowngrade method posted by ieftm should work. That will get your HBoot to 1.01.0001, and then you can use Revolutionary to gain S-OFF.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phoenix.911:
No need of s -off

right now i m using an unlocked wildfire with s- on and cyanogenmod 7.01 in it.

just download ROM manager from android market and then download stabel release from cyanogen official site. copy to root of sd card . go to bootloader menu and install it

im on the leaked version of ics .84. one complaint i have about ICS is how much battery is being used by the screen. and i really hate how people say that this leak is flawless and perfect, because its not, i have several complaints about it but that is not the point of this post. i really want to know if i am the only one like this.

View attachment 1046561

View attachment 1046576

i know in these screen shots that my phone has only been on for a small time, but the screen usage basically stays this high through out the day, doesn't matter if it is 50 minutes or 9 hours.

but then i was thinking, maybe just everything else is so battery efficient that the screen is the most power consuming component. but this cant be true cause im only getting about 12-14, 16 if im lucky, hours on ics. on gb i could easily get 15-18. im using the phone the same way that i was when on GB. i hardly ever have the screen brightness above 10%, and if i do it is at 30%. im not cranking the screen up, even though it does look really sexy when i do :D last week the battery discharged in 9 hours and the screen used 75% with an on time of an hour and 32 minutes.

i also had this problem on the first ics leak

is anyone else having this issue with there razr on ics?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
On the old 75 leak I was regularly seeing 5 hr screen on time on 3g. Almost same as gingerbread. W that kind of on time I couldn't complain. But ics is going to point out the killers. The display is the main killer. I have a maxx tho so its hard for me to compare.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MillionManMosh:
Those meters aren't even close to perfectly accurate. They are, however, better than the GB meters. Your screen is generally your biggest culprit for usage, even more so on an AMOLED display. But it's not the only thing, and the hardware hasn't changed from GB.

If something is going on with your battery it's not ICS itself. Keep in mind that between Google+, Motocast, Backup Assistant+, Facebook, corporate email (all of which come pre-installed) plus Dropbox, etc. there are ton of things trying to automatically sync in the background- and definitely more than GB. Some of those can be disabled in their own settings and the rest can be locked out through the Apps panel.

With Wi-Fi on (I know, that's cheating) and unnecessary sync turned off I can get 5-6 hours of screen-on time, plus an hour or so of talk (and a full 24 hours between charges)-- so the screen is not the only offender.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JoeSchmoe22:
Display kills battery

I am in the same boat as the original poster of this thread. I was running GB and the display was always less than the OS and the Android System. On GB I was running everything in the background - push email, Dropbox, FB, LinkedIN, 2 other email accounts, Twitter, etc. By the end of the day I was at 30% to 40% on the battery.

Then I upgraded to ICS leak .79. I changed nothing - still ran the same things in the background and used the phone the same way. However, now display is 78% with Android OS at 6% and Android System 3%. Now I end my day with about 10%. :eek:

Help - any ideas? :confused:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belchie:
I have a new Nook Color running 1.4.2 and followed the instructions with CWM 3.2.0.1 and MN 5.02.19. Everything looks good except apps won't install. I see the Android market and have downloaded all apps from my Google account. I can see they are downloaded but when I try to install, nothing happens.

I've used NookColor Tools to force stop, clear data and clear cache in the Market app but still can't install.

Edit:

I've reinstalled with the apps2sd version plus the stock kernel. Still no joy. Have spent an entire day getting nowhere. I see that NookColor Tool doesn't have any hidden white text on a white background. It's all white text on black background. Toggleing the tick box doesn't seem to do anything.

Can anyone please help me?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ron_nelson:
heh... toggling that select box breaks app installs for me. I fixed it by rerunning the sd-boot root again. After the root, just verify that the box is selected.

There's also the solution from old_fart

you try clearing the cache and data of both the Google Play Store app and the Download manager

1.Visit Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications

2.Tab over to "All"

3.Select the Google Play Store app, and then tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache;" then, select Download manager and tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache"​

Good luck
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belchie:
Thanks Ron, I do remember the select box in NookColor Tool was already ticked after I ran the sd-boot root. I'll try once more.....Could the problem be that the Market isn't updating to Google Play Store? I'm stuck with the old Android Market. I can see my paid-for apps but it won't download them for installation. Can I force an update?

ps. old_fart's solution didn't work for me
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belchie:
Third time lucky....I tried the root again and this time I didn't toggle the NookColor Tool tick box. Market started it's upgrade to Play Store within seconds and Angry Birds installed first time. Thanks Ron :)
[General Questions and Answers] bezjones:
I've installed TripNRaver's AOKP ROM on my One X and now I can't boot into recovery.

I've unlocked the bootloader

ADB seems to work fine but when I try adb reboot recovery it says device not found

I can connect my phone to my laptop and transfer files on to it

I've managed to get CWM on it by downloading the APK and transferring it to my phone

I can boot into bootloader but when I select Recovery it just boots into TripNDroid's ROM

I have downloaded the RUU and try to run it off my friend's PC (i'm on osx) but that couldn't seem to locate my phone either

When my phone is plugged in fastbood does change to fastboot USB

Any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
It sounds like you have "fastboot" checked somewhere in settings. Not the fastboot you use to flash, but the one that makes the phone boot up quickly.
[General Questions and Answers] bezjones:
I don't think so. I can't even find that in settings. I think that's a Sense thing not an aokp thing. I've discovered that I need to lock the bootloader to run ruu so i've done that. I'll borrow my friend's pc again and try that again. If that fails... any other ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] doumer:
under options/power there's a checkbox which enables fastboot, what lowandbehold mentioned. disable this and you should be able to boot with power+volumedown to fastboot and from there to recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] bezjones:
I'm pretty sure that's a Sense thing you know. It's not on here.
[General Questions and Answers] chchang1:
get in the bootloader, fastboot erase cache, problem solved...:)
[General Questions and Answers] bezjones:
I did this before and it didn't work. I tried it again just now and somehow it worked. I have no idea why or how but it did. So thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] JC12345:
Won't go into recovery

First post on here, so be gentle!

Rooted One X that I'm trying to install the ARHD on using the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1562603

Before I tried this, I had root access and Clockwork Recovery installed. All working fine.

So, read the instructions on the thread, but have only got as far as flashing the boot.img - which gave me the OKAY! to tell me it was successful and the cache erase OKAY as well.

So all I need to do is the superwipe and then flash the ARHD ROM from recovery.

That is the problem - I now can't access recovery. Fastboot isn't enabled, I've tried using vol-down/power, QuickBoot app and select 'recovery', etc., but each time it tries to go to recovery I see an Android character with his stomach internals on show for a split second, and then the phone just reboots normally. I've tried erasing the cache again from bootloader, but after that it still won't go into recovery.

Am I missing something simple here, or can anyone suggest what I need to do?
[General Questions and Answers] Orong89:
Have the same problem.

what can we do?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
FML! I went ahead and did it! I mentioned that I hadn't had an SOD or reboot since ICS and now enraged the gods of karma and pulled down on myself a wrath unlike any other! :eek:

Yes, I have a problem that I call the Black Shroud of Death. Using transformer and the backlight goes out. I click the power on and I see the backlight go on but I don't see anything on the screen. Hmm, figure that I must have gotten my first SOD or maybe a misbehaving app is FC'ing. So I reboot, the ASUS logo flashes a bunch of times and then it goes to a black screen...backlight is still on though. It never "seems" to boot. I reboot a couple of times and it repeats the same process.

Then something odd happens, when playing with the power and volume keys I notice the lock screen for a second appears. Playing around more and suddenly I see the lock screen BUT only if I hold the volume keys. So, it IS booting but for some reason, the display is unable to show graphics. The backlight is on too so it's not a backlight issue.

I am able to unlock and I start disabling settings(I'm on Megatron) in hopes to hit on the cause of this issue. I release the keys and I'm back to the Black Shroud again! If I'm lucky, I can make it reboot into recovery where I don't need to hold keys to see options.

I tried downgrading to a different GAPPS version as I had previously upgraded and wanted to see if that's the problem. While it boot, the typical gapps upgrade screens were flashing like crazy.

I tried reflashing my ROM but that didn't seem to do anything.

My guess is that I need to completely power down and clear out some bad crap in the video memory. I opened the back of the unit but couldn't figure out how to pull the battery cable. I did manage to ruin some plastic clips on the bottom or something, so yeah the less than perfect bottom fit is now fun. So, my next step is to let it power down, charge it up and see what happens.

Any advice...other than don't enrage the Gods?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] I2IEAILiiTY:
Sorry, this post isn't going to help, but I literally laughed out loud when I saw

in the preview of the post. Lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
Maybe I should delete my original Karma-Killing post as a start. :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] a.mcdear:
Well, it certainly doesn't sound like a software issue to me. I would exchange it for another.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
It might not be software but I can see the recovery screen so I have some reasons to believe it could still be software. Unfortunately, if I try to RMA, they're going to say that I voided the warranty....because I probably did by opening the case AND running a cooked ROM. So, they'll fix it but as a service. I'm not sure it would be worth the cost.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] yanbo2012:
Wait for the next update. I tried sending it in for repair. No change what so ever. If it is software you got me beat on the weirdest ICS bug.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
Yeah, I think it's some corrupted memory that sticks around after reboot. At least I hope so. When I get home tonight I'm going to charge it up and see if the power draining helped.

If not...well, it might be time to think about my next tablet. I'm interested in seeing how the "Google Play Tablet" turns out as their might be integration with home theater stuff. Then there's the updated Transformers or maybe the iPad. Yeah, I know iOS is boring as hell but it has lots of tablet apps and gets new one's first. I'm kind of getting tired of seeing...."Coming for Android".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] I2IEAILiiTY:
Yea, you screwed up by opening it. You might as well upgrade if all else fails. I'd hold off on another transformer for as long as I can though if I were you...already hearing about minor defects in tf300s such as light bleeding.

Then there's always the...iPad...but make sure you update if you get one! Jailbreak that MF first and then you'd be good to go. My dad wants me to jailbreak his iPad 2, but it doesn't help that he's "update happy"
[Eee Pad Transformer General] farsight73:
So, with some plastic clips damaged. Does it close properly now?

The battery cable should be either soldered onto the board or it uses zip cconnector. Nowadays cable/ribbon cable uses zip connector on motherboard.

And not all TF101/G would have 100% perfectly & exactly the same and this might giving you a little not so perfect in term of tiny capacitances on the board. This little components sometimes don't hold voltages that good as they should. Thus giving some trapped voltages and having your battery connected makes this trapped voltages remain in it. The best option now is to drained your TF101 completely and stay drained for another day(this is to let the capacitances drain its trapped voltages). The next time you boot and it might just solved your problem..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
Almost, there's a slight bulge in the bottom but it fits on the dock.

Unfortunately, I think it's a hardware problem. I tried unbricking the device using NVFlash to load stock ICS but the entire time the screen never displayed anything. It didn't look like the entire Flash job completed and I can't get the back light to turn on now. I can't even tell if it's charging.

Anything more I can try before I chalk this up to a brick?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] farsight73:
Have you tried leaving it for a day or two in total battery drained??

List you could do/perform.

1) NVflash works on B60 and below.. check yours

2) Put it in a freezer for a night

3) Dissemble again and see if anything disconnected or loose since the last time you open it.

4) Smell it and see if anything like burn smell around the motherboard(this could be over voltage from a weak components).

.

.

.

.

.

If all above still yielled the same result..

5) Check and see if your TF101 could survive 2 storey height drop.. :D

Good Luck..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
A lot of LCD screens can be damaged by freezing, unless you know that the TF is safe I would not freeze it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
OK, I managed to unbrick the device but I still can't see any video. Backlight is working fine and I can output to HDMI. Digitizer is also working fine as I can manipulate the screen and see the result on the TV.

So, now that I'm at stock ICS and can output video. Does this narrow it down to an LCD problem? If so, is there a loose wire I can check? Am I likely going to have to send it to ASUS for repair?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] I2IEAILiiTY:
Lol, didn't you already take it apart before?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
Yes, but at the time I was looking for a cable that I could loosen, now I'm looking for a cable to tighten. Fml, yes it sounds stupid but I'm at the point where I need to decide if a repair or replacement is the next step. I'm not thrilled with anything out there.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] MeLikes:
Almost exactly the same problem here...

I have a very similar problem to yours right now; the screen on my TF101 is entirely black but the backlight is on and i can output through HDMI fine. I'm still under warranty but i can't RMA it at the moment as it is running Android Revolution HD and i need to restore it to stock Asus TW firmware before they would fix it. Problem is Rogue XM Recovery is not able to output through HDMI ;p, so now i have to wait for someone to post screenshots/pictures on a thread that i started showing the menu for the recovery and the other screens involving wiping the dalvik cache and installing from zip file. Any closer to solving the problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] torax3:
I had the same problem of the backlight being on but no video. It worked over the hdmi but that was it. I had to send in my unit via a RMA to get it fixed.

Thankfully it was under warranty so they fixed it. Did you drop your unit?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Skyeclad:
Just out of curiosity, why not nvflash your way back to stock? I did because I couldn't find my HDMI mini cable. I haven't opened my tablet again. I'm going to try to RMA it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oilerseberle14:
try to nvflash stock rom and start over? that would your best chance....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] MeLikes:
Well first of all i don't know how to use NVflash, and secondly i have a B70 transformer so i don't know if it will work. Also i need to flash the stock Taiwan firmware because that's the original firmware that came with it and i can't find instructions for that. Just wondering though does flashing the stock rom using NVflash also install the stock recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
Yeah looks pretty accurate to me. The biggest change for me is LTE.. my nexus is GSM and honestly its hard to go back. 3g feels like edge now.. I miss being able to take the battery out as well but everything else really is an upgrade from the nexus. I'll never sell my nexus simply because its my ticket to new versions of Android but I'll be rocking the one x as my daily driver from now on.. :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
Oh man. I forgot LTE! Yes, it's very fast in my area and definitely makes everything more snappy.

I'm with you. I'm going to keep my Gnex just so I can play with Jellybean when it comes out. I'm a phone addict. It's sad.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] blaine.hale:
Don't forget the incredible battery life.

I had roughly 1day 8hrs with 4+hrs of screen on time WITH wifi on 100% of that after just my first charge of the phone.

Can't beat that with a stick. I wager in my day to day use (not playing video games for a solid hour on it and no wifi) I could go a full 2 days with no charge.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
About the LTE. How do you know you're on LTE? Mine says 4g in the corner all the time, not LTE. Wonder if I got the wrong sim card. The guy at the at&t store didn't even know if the phone took micro sim and had to ask his manager.

Does an LTE card have any special markings?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] blaine.hale:
Mine will actually say 4G LTE in the notification bar.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] greyhulk:
LTE sim card is definitely different than regular. I'm using a full-size LTE card cut down with a sim cutter, so I couldn't tell you if it's supposed to say LTE or not. Are you sure you're in an LTE coverage area? There aren't a lot of markets yet.

It should say 4G LTE in the notification bar if you're on it. You would definitely know.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] co.ag.2005:
you're likely on 4G HSPA+ (Not LTE). Has LTE been deployed where you are? If not, the phone will just say 4G (while on HSPA+) and when on LTE say "4G LTE" in the icon.

EDIT: OP beat me to it. dang you're quick :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
yeah the icon will say 4G LTE. just 4G means HSPA+

that was one of the big pluses, though, the LTE. LTE, the camera and screen make it easily better than the GNex. then throw in the new SoC and i don't see why anyone would want a GNex over this device.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
For android 4.1/5.0(JB)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
Wifi is better on battery then 3g/4g.. so probably not. :rolleyes:

Absolutely.. I'm a two bit, no good phone junkie that would absolutely suck the devils **** for a preview of jellybean :p
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nino313:
Great comparison. Hopefully we can get the bootloader unlocked within 30 days, if not, i'll probably return for an unlocked nexus from google
