[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
We've had it plugged into a charger for a Samsung smartphone. I wasn't given an actual KF charger. Right now it's plugged into my iPad charger, which is closer to the KF charger output, but it's still USB. I'll leave it there for a bit and let you know what happens. I don't think it's a battery issue because it's had enough power to do this on/off cycle numerous times, but who knows. When plugged in, it does it again, dies, and makes no indication that it is charging or anything, just like it does with a PC. I have a multimeter, so I could check the voltage/amperage across the battery, but I don't know which wires to do lol.

I started with usb_fix_parts_and_install_fff_twrp, and then tried usb_boot_twrp, then some of the fastboot commands. I think they all said they worked at each step. The boot command always said something like 0.003 s, not sure if that is a normal time.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
It's been plugged into the iPad charger for a few hours now, and the behavior has not changed.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
Yeah, it was a crapshoot, but a few people have had some weirdnesses resolved by making sure the battery's charged. I guess the fact that you get through the TWRP install rules this out.

One theory I've had is that either something is being missed by the partition recreator, or there's some assumption that the emmc is blanked when the device is initially flashed. If you have no attachments to any data that might be on this Fire, you could try zeroing (or 0xFFing as erased flash would be) the flash while in TWRP (via adb). Then redo the usb_fix_parts_blah_blah which should leave you with bootloaders and recovery.

I'm not sure if this would work, but without knowing where and why the bootloader is dying I can only guess.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
I just erased each partition through fastboot (fastboot erase boot, system, cache, userdata, recovery) and it seemed to work, or at least think it was working, as they each took a proportional amount of time from 2 s for boot to 118 s for userdata. Ran install_fff_twrp, it went through all the motions, then died when it tried to boot as before. Tried using the power button to get to TWRP, same thing.

Edit: Just found a list of the partitions. Went through in fastboot and deleted xloader, bootloader, dkernel, dfs, recovery, backup, boot, splash, system, userdata, cache, and media. Reran install_fff_twrp, same effect as before. Oh whoops, now it won't boot at all. Probably need to do the shorting trick again.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
Hmm, I may have borked it a bit more than I intended. Right now, doing the USB trick, running usb_fix_parts... it says:

Loading FFF through USB...

?

waiting for OMAP44xx device...

I let it sit, then Ctrl+C, redid, tried again, hung after "?" and seemed unwilling to Ctrl+C, redid, hung at "waiting" again.

Edit: Did it one more time, seems to have worked (as well as earlier). Hung for a while on "Resetting bootmode to standard boot...", but it said it only took 0.079 s. Whatever the case all steps said "OKAY" and the screen got brighter, then all went dead.

Is there a way to do a full wipe of the disk through fastboot, other than doing partition-by-partition?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
OK so it looks like the weird hangings and stuff were probably due to using a-port USB extender on my laptop. Tried on my desktop and everything went quickly, but the KF still died.

After all the deletions and stuff it still won't boot into recovery, but instead of dying when trying to do a normal boot, it just gets hung on the bootloader screen, and won't allow me to try to go into recovery. I'm not sure if that's better or worse. I guess it means the deletions really erased something, but then why won't it write/boot?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
Can you still get into TWRP after the usb_fix_parts... finishes? If so, try:

adb shell

When you get a prompt, do:

tr "\000" "\377" < /dev/zero | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

***WARNING THIS COMMAND WILL STEAL YOUR CAR AND USE YOUR

***CUPHOLDERS FOR A URINAL. IT WISHES YOUR FAMILY ILL AND IS

***RESPONSIBLE FOR PUTTING INDUSTRIAL WASTE IN IMPORTED PET

***FOOD. IT IS SERIOUS BUSINESS. DON'T DO THIS UNLESS YOU

***ABSOLUTELY KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

It might take a few hours for this to run. At the end your flash will be fresh from the factory clean. If you hold down the power button long enough, your Fire should go into USB boot mode regardless of shorting the test point. Now try the usb_fix_parts_... again.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
I wish I could, but I've never been able to get it into recovery. Just bootloader.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
So when you run usb_fix_parts_and_install_fff_twrp, it doesn't reboot into TWRP when it's done? You don't have to get it to run recovery from the flash, just run recovery at all. Unfortunately FFF doesn't know how to wipe everything at the level I described.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
No, it says it does each step and gives the status OKAY, but when it tries to boot the recovery, the screen gets a little brigher and then everything dies, just like when I try to get to it using the power button.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
Does "usb_boot_twrp" work instead of usb_fix_parts...?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
Nope, same result. Gets brighter, dies. Hmm...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
Tried another copy of TWRP and ./fastboot boot twrp....img, same thing. Flashed TWRP 2.1.1 from another post, still dies.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
Is it possible to boot to USB storage, similar to the other USB boot trick? So that I could use the linux distro's system to write to the disk?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
No, unfortunately. The USB boot is part of the on-chip bootrom. It's not smart enough to do much more than boot off SD & soldered down flash chips, serial, and the simple USB device protocol.

What's making this hard is not being able to see where it's dying: is it in the kernel or in FFF? It seems like your Fire is now in the same state as everyone who was bitten by the latest CWM.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deutschigmann:
Since it had the same behavior before and after installing FFF, I feel like that's probably not it. It seemed like it likely hadn't been modded before, since it was stuck on the stock KF logo.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokey9000:
Get an afflicted Fire to someone who: knows FFF, has soldering skillz, and has a serial converter/level shifter. Nobody is going to brick their own to debug this.

Hi,

I use Samsung Keyboard with two input languages - English (US) and Czech. Problem is that the Czech language has qwertz layout which doesn't fit me, but I need to write Czech characters sometimes. Is there a way how to change Czech layout to qwerty? My GT 7.7 is rooted so I could possibly edit any config file if it was necessary.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
Try hackers keyboard. You can download from the market. You'll have to install both language packs and adjust some settings, but it's my favorite keyboard. I primarily type in portrait mode.

Sent from my GT-P6800
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] t-fuse:
Thanks, it looks really great. Mainly special characters typing without switching keyboard between letters and special characters mode :-) And QWERTY layout is exactly what I need.

The only thing I don't understand is why does the keyboard try to read my contact list? Does it steal my contacts or something like that? I use LBE Privacy Guard so I denied access to my contact list.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
that's in the keyboard settings menu, would have to dig around and see, but I'm glad you like it! I set the keyboard labeling to 50% and you can check what all you want the suggestir to pull feom. I like it having access to my contacts personally.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dvst8_:
I noticed that on my lockscreen it only shows appointments for one of my Google calendars (I don't have this one checked to show) and not any of the ones I do have checked.

I dont have this calendar checked in the calendar app or the lockscreen settings.

I tried selecting a different one and removing the account it still shows like this.

Also txt msgs on the lock screen and in the app show the persons phone number, I don't see any option to show their name instead. Is there one I missed or some hack for this? All of my contacts are Google contacts.

Both things make me think there's something up with my Google account.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dvst8_:
Figured this I've out. Clearing the data for HTC Sense fixed it.

Also it looks like the lock screen style for Productivity is bugged and only shows the contacts phone number instead of name, the others work fine.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharonlewis:
I am working to develop a app in flash professional CS6. Problem is that I want the app to work with a external XML, where to store some data, and eventually modify it with flash, send data from textfields or loading data from XML.

Did anyone tried this before?

Any tips?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] donpiero278:
I've been really annoyed by AT&T's throttle and trying to find a way around it I've been playing with the root of the device with SQ Lite Editor and found this under:

1) Setting Storage

2) setting.db

3) secure

4) throttle_reset_day

Trying to change it's value from "20" to "0" to see if I can get my speed again but it can't be edited this way. Actually my billing cycle ends that day ("20")...... is there a way to edit that field so I can try if this can actually avoid throttling? Any Dev out there? I'll be happy to test any possibility......

Thanks people!

I could be wrong, but i believe i saw a thread in regards to this over in the captivate forum some time ago, and if im not mistaken this didnt work. But would still welcome someone to try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bose301s:
Does anyone still have issues with outgoing voice dropping out during calls? I have been keeping up with the latest CM9 nightlies, have the latest 4.0.4 radios and using Franco Kernel but still get voice drops. I am wondering if I should get a new phone. The issue complicating that is that my current unit was dropped in the toilet (go ahead and laugh ) so the water sensing stickers show evidence of that, however the phone works the same as it did before the incident. I have had this issue since day 1 with this phone but since I had that happen I will need to do it as an insurance claim and pay the $99 deductible for a new phone, just wondering if it's my phone or an ongoing issue with people that will be fixed in CM updates.

I'm looking for some headphones, specifically in-ear ones, that work with Android and have a built in Mic and volume controls. I know that many of the ones made for iPod/iPhone don't work with Android properly so I want to make sure I don't make this mistake. I'd quite like the earphones to be good quality ones in the price range of £30 - £90 if possible. I've looked around but not found much. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
[HTC One X] DarkDvr:
I'm using ones from my SGSII. Work perfectly, nice deep base, mic works perfectly fine as well.

Overall, I'd say my SGSII headphones are surprisingly the best earbuds I ever had. To my ear, best frequencies.

So perhaps you can just buy SGSII replacement buds.
[HTC One X] Stuart.upton666:
Beats in-ear earphones. At hmv they are reasonably cheap. I'm pretty sure you can find ones for less if you try gumtree or eBay. Just make sure they're genuine, Fake ones WILL break within a few days (past experience). http://m.hmv.com/product/details/171063 <---- those are really good quality, and well within your price range. :)

a-JAYS ONE+ to the rescue

You should try these out. They are called a-JAYS ONE+, and they are made for android. They also have their own android app where you can customize the button to perform different functions (change track, adjust volume, launch apps etc) the app is called JAYS headset control. The headphones are really good themselves. I would have posted the links, but since I'm new I gotta wait. But I hope it helps :)

I tried looking for good over ear head phones everywhere for while, finally bought beats by dre Solo HD, however only one button works, the only way i got everything to work was by downloading app called Headset button form google market, which has allowed me to control everything on the phone.

1 click pause song, ans and disconnect call

2 clicks - next song

3 clicks - rewind songs

hold the button - volume up

click + hold button - volume down

you can get pro version but free one is working fine for me.

I just wanted good headphones cuz i enjoy my music, this is some what a solution if you want to use good headphones but dont have all functionality.

this app also works with my skull candy in ear headphones.

hope this helps.

[HTC One X] Murischas:
Hallo,

1 Week ago i board the HTC one x on Ebay. It was realy cheap and everything looked okey.

Today the postman brought the package and i noticed after opening that there was a bump on the Backside of the phone and the Key for the volumecontrol was missing.

I´m sure that the previous owner droped down the phone so the shell got broken of the display and he lost the volume key...

But the Phone and the other Hardware is working fine.

All i just need now is a new battery cover, because it includes the volumekey and it will look more nice, but i can´t find any replacement covers....

Does anyone know where to buy it? i would know how to install it but i need the Hardware ^^

Thanks for all replys
