[HTC One X] UpSideDownHOX:
Ok i was reading a story about a ban by united states postal services on shipping devices with this type of batteries that cannot be removed (HOX is one such devices isn't?):

http://betanews.com/2012/05/25/sorry-you-cant-mail-your-iphone-or-ipad-overseas-til-next-year/

And... i was just thinking i have to take a flight in a few weeks time, but everytime i try to power off my HOX it just keeps rebooting forever and getting hot, i have tried to hold the power button down for like 30 seconds at least while it just keeps shuting down and starting up, while i surely can put the phone in flight mode once stable (sometimes like dozens of reboots), normally airlines also require that all devices to be powered off completly, as the phone is so unstable when i try to shut it down or start it up i expect anything to happen... but i bet it won't shutdown, if it does from what i seen many times before it will startup after a few moments...

As i cannot pull out the battery, does anyone have any sugestions/tips how i'm going to be able to shutdown the phone properly?

I guess i could try to drain the battery[joke]...

oh dear what am i going to do?

notes: i have cleared up the cache and some of the data for all the applications i could think off.
[HTC One X] UpSideDownHOX:
I think the reboot issue i'm experiencing relates to the multi-tasking lock down implemented by HTC update in order to save make battery last longer, and which is discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1651848

Let me explain why i think this is the case

According to HTC troubleshooting guide on topic:

http://www.htc.com/www/help/htc-one-x/#troubleshooting-guide

the topic being: My phone keeps turning on and off.

It offers the following solutions:

1. Try stopping any newly installed applications that might be running on the device from "MENU > Settings > Applications > Running Services".

>> too many apps installed to find out which one may be causing the issue, however stopping apps in general at this stage does not seem to make any diference to a rebooting problem.

2. Enter "Safe Mode" in case a 3rd party application is affecting the device performance, If the issue disappears in "Safe Mode" then a 3rd party application that you've installed is forcing the device to shut down. Try then removing any newly installed apps, you can also check the applications' permissions from MENU > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Choose the application and you'd be able to find the permissions of each and every application.

>> I have entered HOX in safe mode, so 3rd party apps should not load but rebooting still occurs...

>> further testing as described in the link above about multi-tasking, when enabled to allow at most 4 background processes the phone is much more stable, but these settings are lost upon reboot, and is during this process that I'm convinced HTC settings is causing the crash of necessary processes, in fact the problem seems worst if i try to do something like opening the settings (well the more background processes the quicker htc kills them and the quicker the phone reboots).... Resuming IMO it sounds very much like the background running process limitation which HTC has put in place that is causing the crash/reboot. I have to admit i have over 500 apps installed, not sure if i can freeze some apps without root... but it may be exactly what i need to do.

3. Please make sure your device is running the latest software by checking for updates from "MENU > Settings > About > System Software updates > Check Now". You should be connected to the Internet, preferably via a Wi-Fi Internet connection.

>> i'm with 3 uk so no latest firmware update yet as usual.

4. Please back up your data and reset the phone to the factory default settings then try again. If you still experience the same problem, please contact HTC service hotline to schedule a repair for you.

>> i'm happy to clear cache and data from most apps but i don't fancy loosing all other application settings, like favourites in web browsers, etc

Resuming:

- i bet issue relates to the default amount of background processes allowed, till htc starts to kill any additional and critical system background processes

- upon reboot the manual setting which allows users to define up to 4 backgound processes reverts back to the default htc value (which i dont have details)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
As someone already told you, flash a ROM and try it. If it doesn't work, try another. Maybe you will understand sudocode better:

while(!sdxc() && untried_roms){

Format(system);

Format(data);

Format(cache);

Flash(ROM);

}

If(sdxc()){

Success=true;

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazin99:
Is there a way to relock the bootloader and have it say locked? Instead of relocked? I need to take my evo in to possibly get a new one due to wear on my volume and power buttons. Does sprint fix the buttons or do they just scrap your phone? I'd appreciate the help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
Yes. It should not take you long if you are rooted with the superuser app. Just copy the 4 files and place them inside a folder called root on your C drive.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Relock Bootloader/adb.exe

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Relock Bootloader/AdbWinApi.dll

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Relock Bootloader/flash_image

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Relock Bootloader/mtd-eng.img

Next open a command prompt at that folder. (You can hold the shift key and right-click and select open command window here). Next type the following commands or copy and paste.

adb push flash_image /data/local

adb push mtd-eng.img /data/local

adb shell

su

You should have a pound sign for your command prompt. Next type or copy and paste:

chmod 755 /data/local/flash_image

/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/mtd-eng.img

reboot bootloader

which should reboot you back into your bootloader.

awe wtf? no audio.. during calls? :/

going back to 5/21 7.2.0 RC2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] burgereatsman:
I just updated from RC2 to RC3 and I'm having a little issues with calls. For some reason, when I receive or make a call, it would have no sound. I have figured out that if I put it on hold, I would get sound back. This is a very annoying temporary solution so I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue.

Here are some additional information:

CM 7.2 RC3

Kernel CM7 Faux 2.6.32.51

Baseband from JULY 2011

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Major Zero, I just read your post. Seems like you have the same problem as me. Temporary solution is to put the call on hold. (on hold == off hold, off hold == on hold)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Major Zero:
thanks bud, any given amount of time or just a quick click on/off? thank god I'm not the only one with this bug... I'm reading about this Sound update and Baseband update... yada yada yada... more work... lol

Edit:

Negative, still no audio at all on and off mute/hold... even tried speaker phone...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] burgereatsman:
Ah, weird. I just tested it again and can confirm that receiving audio doesn't work as well. However, the hold on/off solution works for the person on the other end to hear you. So, there seems to be two different problems going on.

I hope someone finds a solution/or updated CM7 comes along. I don't think it is a baseband problem since I still have the July version, although, I could be wrong.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Major Zero:
yeah I'm on the same July 15...

everything works fine except phone Audio for me...

no out going or incoming audio, no Voice mail, not even a dial tone?

[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
I am s-off with jboot running rezrom 3.4. For some reason for the last two or 3 weeks i have lost amon ra 4 or 5 times. It just randomly disappears and i have to reflash it. Any idea on why this keeps happening?
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
This is nearly impossible, what ar you flashing?

I've heard this on moto phones but they would force instal the stock recovery on boot so you had to remove that script

As far as I know HTC phones don't do this
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
its happend with both 3.14 and 3.15. ive never had a problem until a few weeks ago then all of a sudden mysteriously it disappears. i cant figure out whats going on.
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
I read that happening a couple times but never saw a solution. I decided not to flash jboot and stick with reg hboot
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
The first time I lost it I was not using jboot. I tried to reflash recovery but it would fail everytime so i flashed jboot and it worked, but I still keep randomly losing recovery
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Later tonight I'm going to give a shot in making a script the installs a recovery on boot
[HTC Rezound] V0latyle:
Did you happen to leave an RUU on the SD card? Would only be a problem every time you boot into hboot, but still...
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
Nope. the very first thing i do after flashing anything is delete the file immediately when i boot back up.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
What do you mean "lose" recovery? You can't boot to recovery, as in it just hangs at the splashscreen, or you boot to HTC recovery?
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
Whether i hit reboot to recovery or manually try to boot to recovery with a battery pull and volume down and power the phone will just boot up normally without ever going to recovery. I then have to reflash amon via fastboot and it works again.
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Post the command you are using to flash recovery
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
Would having fastboot checked cause this? Just thinking out loud.
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
Fastboot flash recovery (name of file). I can flash it fine it just eventually disappear. And fastboot is not checked.
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
I'm lost as to what could cause this..... Have you tried CWM recovery and see if same thing happens? I doubt it matters. Just throwing things out there
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Are you s-off?

Which Rom are you running ?
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
No I haven't tried cwm I'm not a fan of it. I am s off running rezrom 3.4. I've ran it forever with no problems till recently. I'm completely stumped.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
That's so odd. Try downloading quick boot from the market and seeing if it will help getting you into recovery. It can't be disappearing completely can it?
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
It'll be there for anywhere from a couple days to a week and then vanish. My nandroid folder will still be there but no recovery
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
I know. I don't like it either. I meant trying it to see if the same thing still happens, not to replace amon ra.
[HTC Rezound] hardfallen87:
I'll try it out tomorrow and twrp to see what happens
[HTC Rezound] RomsWell:
I had this issue prior to unlocking after soff. Had no idea why it was doing it but id either lose recovery or have it half boot with only a few commands listed. After unlocking and reflashing recovery I haven't had a issue. That's with stock firm. But again I'm not worried about warranty unlock issue.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
Hi,

I would like to ask you for advice before throwing my X10 mini away and buying something else.

I have had MiniCM7 installed for a very long time (more than a year), and upgraded to all versions without any problem. Today I installed MiniCM9 3.0.2, but I decided to reinstall MiniCM7 because of some problems detected with this version, so I went to SEUS, downgraded to 2.1.1.A.0.6, installed BusyBox, xMiniRecovery, root and flashed MiniCM7 2.2.0 and gapps. I have done it quite a lot of times before.

But, when I tried to reboot onto MiniCM7 2.2.0, my phone was stuck onto Sony Ericsson logo. Here's what I did:

1) Ok, Home+Power and reenter into recovery by pressing back key. No, no luck, it doesn't enter into any recovery.

2) B plan, I'll go to SEUS again. Home+Power, connect USB and keep back key pressed. Nothing, SEUS doesn't recognize anything, but Companion does activate a little popup on my Windows, as if it detects my phone plugged into my computer. No red, yellow, or green lights in the phone.

3) C plan. Flash kernel directly. I downloaded kernel from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17674938#post17674938 and used FlashTool. But, again, when I press Home+Power, connect the USB cable and press back key, it doesn't recognize anything, FlashTool is waiting for me to connect something. Antivirus is disabled.

If I keep back key pressed, no SE logo appears; black screen. If I release back key for a little while, SE logo appears and it gets stuck.

Both if I connect it to the computer or to the power socket, no green/yellow/red led appears.

Does anybody have any idea? Everything (cable and phone) were working wonderfully before flashing 2.1.1.A.0.6 for the last time.

Kind regards,

Jordi
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LukBoy99:
Ok,before u try this u should know it will delete everything of phone memory:apps,contacts,etc.

And it removes root and recovery and phone will be like the day u bought it except that bootloader is not touched if unlocked stays unlocked

TRY AT UR OWN RISK

Steps:

1-download sony erricsson pc companion

2-click support zone and choose software update

3-before clicking continue click on repair phone

4-wait till loads and choose phone type

5-concentrate on this one cuz it has 2 methods

5a:if ur phone doesent restart automaticlly just plug usb in computer first then with phone powered off hold the back button and connect the usb cable only let hold when it says u can

5b:if ur phone DOES restart automaticlly remove battery till u reach this step and put back cover bedside till ur done with this method what were gonna do is when we reach this step we quickly plug battery and before it restarts just hold back and insert usb cable.

6-wait to install

7-congratulations unbricking

8-(optional):click the thanks button :xD
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
Hi,

Thank you very much for your quick answer. I had never realized the procedure shown in steps 2-4.

But Companion refuses to install it! "It's impossible to install or setup update components of phone sotfware" grrrrrrrrrrrrr Tomorrow I'll try to get another computer and follow your procedure.

Thank you very much

Always happy to help as ive been in such issues alot
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
You say you have an X10 Mini, and not an X1O Mini-Pro.

The X10 Mini requires you to run the nAa-kernel in order to run the latest verstion of MiniCM7.

You say you downgraded back to stock firmware and installed MiniCM7 again, did you forget about the kernel?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhh you are right!!!!!!! I have installed kernels and versions a lot of times on my device, and I was so confident of myself that this time I didn't realize I was missing one of the most important steps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So stupid of me.......!!!!!!!

I've tried PC Companion as suggested before, but no way: it doesn't detect the "flash mode" at boot time. I keep pressing Back key and I only get a black screen; when I release Back key, SE logo appears and gets stuck forever. It doesn't matter if I try SEUS, PCCompanion or FlashTool, it's always the same. I can't shut it down, just restart over and over again via Home+Power.

Does anybody know what can I do?

Kind regards,

Jordi
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
Only thing i can think off is to press home-power-back at the same time and release home and power when the screen goes black, all this with the phone connected to the pc via usb, but i'm not sure if that will work.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
I've tried that already, doesn't work...

Looks bad, huh??? :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
I do not know what did I do, but by trying for the 1000th time to do the Home+Power+Back key combination with USB connected and keeping Back key pressed, and pressing and releasing it madly afterwards, while FlashTool was waiting for me to flash MiniCM7, FlashTool has reacted!!!!!! It allowed me to install MiniCM7 again!!!

What happened? I do not know, perhaps I pressed Back key just the microsecond that the hardware needed it.

Thank you very much!!!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
hahaha, cool :) And here i was thinking you were trying to flash the kernel, lol

But good luck :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jordisegurapla:
Ok, you are right again; FlashTool allowed me to install the kernel ;-) and then, everything else.

Thank you very much, really!!!
[HD2 General] abumaha:
can not get in fastboot mode always get wrong dont no why someone can help

magldr is installed
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You can not use fastboot commands with MAGLDR, you can only use them with clk.
[HD2 General] abumaha:
u get me wrong

theres no boot loader for me

only starts un magldr or daf screen
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
So you mean your device will not boot to the multi color bootloader screen, but your device can boot into the MAGLDR main menu?
[HD2 General] dazza9075:
no idea what you talking about.

describe what your doing and what happens, start from taking the battery out so we can be clear what your saying, failing that take some photos

:)
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Are you talking about the fastboot option that is in Settings/Power/Fast boot? If this is what you are talking about then no this will not work with the HD2 because the original wince bootloader (HSPL bootloader) boots MAGLDR or clk depending on which one you use. Then the MAGLDR or clk boots the android ROM. So you see because the original wince bootloader has to boot the custom bootloader, the device can not go into the hibernation/sleep mode that the Fast boot option allows.

If you are talking about your device will not boot into the multi color bootloader. Then you might have a faulty power down button that is not letting you boot into the bootloader.

I just want to make sure I am going to be ok with the usb cable that I currently have. I am seriously considering rooting my phone for the first time, and as a noob I am reading all the guides which consistently state to use the factory supplied usb cable. Mine stopped functioning within a few months of getting my phone and I recently replaced it with a belkin microUSB cable for data and charging, so will that one be fine? It feels like a silly question, but I don't want to overlook anything so minor as the correct cable.:confused:
