[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BRainXstorming:
yes but in my oppinion cm laggs more than a stock rom...

and my apps close not so oft in a stock rom like in cm
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Squitten's Dad:
I installed the current version of CM7 last night I haven't had much problems with it so far. Try it out (make a back-up of your stock rom first) & you always go back to stock if you're not happy with it!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BRainXstorming:
are there still issues with Link2SD.?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Squitten's Dad:
Never tried it. Have a read in the official CM 7.2 tread in the SGA dev section you're might find your answer there!!

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boogje@:
Here goes:

I have a TF101 WW with root and CWM. I recently had a bootloop problem, which I managed to fix with roach's version of CWM. Then the next update from Asus came out (9.2.1.24), which failed to install, apparently because CWM is in the way.

I then waited for the downloadable update to be available on Asus' website, I temporarily unrooted with OTA Rootkeeper and installed the zip through CWM.

Upon reboot, everything seemed fine, version checked out, until I tried rerooting with Rootkeeper. Rootkeeper apparently lost its protected backup of su and couldn't reroot.

So I tried rebooting to CWM to install Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip and get my root back, only to see the dead android logo with a red warning sign.

Next I tried connecting through adb, which has always worked before... until now.

When I insert the usb in my pc, I don't even get the usual 'new device' sound and the adb devices list remains empty. Same in apx mode.

Any ideas? My device works just fine, except for apps that require root, booting into recovery and connecting through adb. I really would like these things fixed if possible...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
OTA Rootkeeper only work when you let it OTA update. When you flashed the firmware from Asus, you unrooted and restore stock recovery, that's why you see the Android with red ! mark.

See if you can get into system/bin if there's a su there try and copy it to system/xbin and see what happen (hopefully you still have partial root).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boogje@:
No such luck. Su is gone from both bin and xbin.

So I gather I can't boot to recovery because it has been restored to stock recovery. Bummer.

Some additional questions [semi-noob alert]:

If updating through OTA doesn't work with CWM, and updating through CWM removes root and CWM, how am I supposed to update?

If restoring to stock and unrooting is that simple, why does Wolf go through so much trouble?

Why did I lose usb-connectivity?

If adb doesn't work, is there a way to reroot my Transformer?

For future cases, once I am rooted again, is it possible to put a copy of su on an external microsd, give it the right permissions and stuff, and keep that as a backup to re-acquire root in similar cases? Or can su only work on /system?

I know it's a lot of questions, I'd be happy with answers to any one of them :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
-you update by waiting for a cwm flashable zip from one of the dev.

-wolfs thread has nothing to do with unrooting, his is downgrading to a rootable version or striaght pushing a recovery to flash su binary plus su zip

-some peoples report loosing usb when updating to ics, try going into system settings, storage, usb pc connection and see if mtp is check off

-for adb try another driver

sorry for all lower case, some reason shift button not working on my mac any more.:mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Yeah, sorry your going to have to re-root :P

On the bright side, you can use NvFlash now if you're inclined too xD
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
No, because microsd is mounted with nosuid.

You must place the backup on a filesystem which is mounted without nosuid.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boogje@:
Thx for the replies. Now I understand how I got into this situation. Still don't know how to get out of it, though :rolleyes: :D

Key to the solution seems to be to get adb working.

I enabled usb debugging on the tablet, checked MTP off in storage settings and removed and reinstalled asus sync. I tried connecting both with asus sync running and with asus sync disabled on the pc. I made sure to shut off the splashtop streamer service.

I tried this on my usual pc (where adb used to work before update) and on a seperate laptop.

I took pretty good care of my connection cable so far, so I strongly suspect it is still in working order.

Result is nothing at all. No notification sound upon connecting, no tray popup discovering new hardware, no device in asus sync, no devices in adb, no usb debugging icon on transformer.

(EDIT: I lied. Result is that the transformer screen turns on upon insertion and removal of the usb plug in the pc.)

Anything else I can try?

@baseballfanz: what exactly do you mean by 'for adb try another driver'. Where can I find alternate drivers?

EDIT: I dual-boot W7 and Ubuntu, how do I go about trying to connect with adb from Ubuntu?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitekidney:
Hi.

I assume you're running windows.

Kill the process "asusUPCTLoader.exe" and try adb again.

If you need to reroot, flash CWM with nvflash, then flash SU from cwm.

Wheelie has been released and allows for SBK2 (b70+) devices to use nvflash.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1676845

You will need a linux virtual machine/livecd though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Ubuntu doesn't need drivers, just download the android-sdk and put it somewhere, it'll have executable adb in it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boogje@:
no luck, same thing. Also, I tried reinstalling the android-sdk platform-tools to get the latest and greatest adb, but no dice.

Tried getting adb to work in Ubuntu also, but no luck.

Ok, I went to that Wheelie site, looked at the instructions and didn't understand anything about it. What exactly is nvflash? Do I need adb for that or (as I understand it) is it more low-level and doesn't require drivers and such?

Obviously that link is for users who have a basic knowledge of what nvflash is, what it can do and how to do it.

Vendor-id? Product-id? SBKv1 or v2? Help!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Before trying NvFlash, uninstall any ADB related or asus-sync stuff, and try my PERI root tool (In my signature) It might help you out getting recovery adb and root back.

My phone wont turn on after installing titanmim backup it was working ok and had about 50% battery left but thenit suddenly went off and now wont turn on.
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Can it boot into recovery? What happens when you plug it into a charger and try turn it on?
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
It wont boot in to recovery mode. Am on my way home now so soon as am in am going to try and plug it in to the charger and see but before I installed titanmim backup it had about 50% battery still in it

Just tuck it out of my pocket and the screen feels warm to the touch
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Try it when you get home and see how it goes.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Just got in and plugged it in to the charger and it's not coming on the charger light isn't even coming on
[HTC Sensation] husam212:
How the PC recognize it in the device manager?
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
At the moment my pc isn't picking it up
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Pull the battery, put it back in, then try to power on.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Tried that tried 2 different battery's and 2 different chargers and 2 different laptops
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Did you try and turn the phone on without a battery in? I read somewhere that that may help discharge the final bit of power in the phone, but it's probably bull crap.

So no computer sees it at all? Have you ever run ADB or FASTBOOT commands with your computer? I ask because I want to make sure you have proper drivers installed and everything.

The next thing I would do is start downloading a RUU of your liking. I say that becasue it may come down to trying that out, and the download takes a while. Here's a link to the thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1074559

Any other info you can provide like is it stock, rooted, what ROM, etc. would be helpful.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
It rooted and running OrDroid rom from here, It as been running great till tonight when I tried to install titanium back and it just went off with no life in it at all
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Sorry to say but it sounds like a lot like what happened to me. My first Sensation just died on me one day. Have a read about it in this thread.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Am starting think that my self as I left it on charge all-night and its still dead. Don't even think it as any warranty left oh well best start saving just a pitty you can't make calls from a galaxy 10.1
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah that is a real shame about the Galaxy 10.1. I have actually been thinking about getting one of those myself. I don't know about the Galaxy 10.1, but my Accer Iconia A500 tablet has a slot for a SD card that has a peice of molded plastic covering the slot. And it is work going on to be able to use it like a phone. Terrible how OEMs lock out a feature like that

Anyway back on topic, if you are interested I can give you contact info to someone that can replace the mainboard for you at a reasonable price. That would be cheaper than buying another device I think. Just PM me if you are interested.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Am in the UK mate
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Think ill take my chances and try and sending if off to HTC for repair
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Just booked it in now so hopefully they will fix it
[HTC Sensation] moshe22:
Same thing happen to me the other day. It shut off and wouldn't come on. Thankfully I am paying extra for extended warranty which is basically lifetime warranty and got it replaced.
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
How much did you pay for extended warranty*
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Got a email from Htc saying even though my phone is in warranty they want a £145 to fix it put not because of the fault but because at the top of the screen there a little crack and even though I said that's not why its broke they still want me to pay it. So I don't now if its worth paying that much to fix it or count my loss's. Isn't there any other way to fix a bricked phone
[HTC Sensation] webstar1:
I wouldn't give a **** about warranty and would phone up HTC and have a MASSIVE go at them. Then I would demand a exchange. I think theres a European law giving you 5 years warranty? Not sure :S
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
No its in warranty but their trying to say is even though the fault as nothing to do with the cracked screen by law or some **** like that they can't fix the phone til they fix the screen which is not covered by a warranty
[HTC Sensation] freddy0000:
Just bought a second one for £75 branded to Vodafone but unlocked to any network. Hate having to spend money on another one but at least I saved my self a £70.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kameleon20:
Hi All,

I have a GW620 wich I want to upgrade to 2.3

Problem is, somehow I can't downgrade my firmware. It's stuck.

Am using Windows 7 Home Premium x32 and all the apps I use I open it with Administrator privileges..

Also have .net 3.5 and xsxml 4.0 (or something like that, don't know the exact name anymore)

Can't enable root permission via the hidden menu, and all fastboot combinations I have tried fail (and i've tried it really MANY times at all possible timings).

I can get ADB to work and boot to emergency mode but that still won't do.

A full factory reset doesn't help either..

I have the V20D_00 firmware. Is it completely locked or something? Anyone can help me wit this one?

Here more details about the phone:

and the error log if I try to install it without root permissions or without fastboot:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kameleon20:
Got it working now.

Found a version v20d_00 with fastboot, and that version did install without a problem.

For future readers I have uploaded the kdz. Also found a version for v20g_00 so uploaded that one also. Have tested them both and they are working.

V20G_00_Fastboot
[Galaxy S III General] TheBlazingIndian:
Friends.

Android V5 is near launch in a month or two. So then Android V4 will be old.

Same samsung will launch new S4 with few more months waiting.

Update for s3 then will take even more time to come.

This procedure is going on & on with many bloatwares given by Samsung & also by other companies.

I love samsung phones & Use their phone, But support or poor support is biggest hurdel in buying s3 this time.

I am in serious confusion seeing future of S3.
[Galaxy S III General] Fysi:
It will get the update.

SGS got its update, SGS2 got its update, SGS3 will get its update.
[Galaxy S III General] mertzi:
Updates DO matter but the update plan for android 4 has been a disaster for ALL manufacturers except LG which we shouldn't even talk about as LG is the biggest joke on the android front. Even the nexus line is a failure. I almost got the nexus S a year ago just because of the whole dedicated concept but now I'm glad I didn't. I don't even think the nexus S will get android 5.

Samsung and HTC are those that I feel is the least slow with updates but still none of them will update their first flagships (SGS1 and DHD) even if they without a doubt can run vanilla ICS great. I thought Sony Ericsson learnt their lesson but apparently not as their flagship this year runs GB and that is laughable.

The only "comfort" in all this is that it's the same for all brands.
[Galaxy S III General] h3llboy911:
DHD will get ICS as promised by HTC.
[Galaxy S III General] ceo.mtcl:
Get galaxy nexus.
[Galaxy S III General] kirdroid:
This cycle will repeat every year. If you want fast updates get nexus or you can flash roms on the sgs3 to get latest software. If you want latest hardware keep changing phones.

Also what support you are referring to? Why do you need support from useless samsung or any other manufacturer in that matter? XDA is your best support forum and you need manufacturer support only in case of hardware defect and need a warranty replacement or repair :-)
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
Exactly. If you are confused, then get a nexus so you won't be. Also, who says we are going to Android 5, what about 4.1? Lets not overhype please.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
Rumor has it Samsung, HTC, etc have early access to Jellybean in order to make their Nexii. Previously everyone besides Samsung only had access when it was released.

Whether or not this affects the update schedule remains to be seen. If it doesn't, you can either expect early-mid 2013 for the update, or flash it yourself (no company, not even some ideal hypothetical, can compete with homebrew speed).
[Galaxy S III General] BJ van Beethoven:
What are you basing any of this on? I highly doubt we will see Android 5 this soon (unless it is purely a tablet OS, which I doubt).

Based on your logic, there is no point in buying an Android phone.

This.
[Galaxy S III General] Moh_Jay:
Android 5 or 4.1 will more then likely come in December just like ics and gingerbread before that. If this is true, this gives you 5 to 6 more months with ics and I doubt the s3 will be as old as you are thinking; sure better devices can come to the market in the next 6 months but let's be real, the s3 will be able to do everything for the next year to a year and a half just fine. I've been with the HTC inspire and this thing is 2 years old yet I rarely have any lag considering I use this for everything including gaming.
[Galaxy S III General] bbgt2:
Have perfect solution for u, don't by the SGS 3 and keep waiting for the perfect one, I have a Gnex and very much doubt that it will have Jelly Bean in a month or two or three , maybe more like 5 months and in the smartphone age that is like a year. Or go get a phone named after a fruit. See no one will get Jelly Bean before it makes it's debut on the next Gnex and thats just the way the cookie crumbles. Thank the fruity company for making the latest version the "best " one, at least with Samsung you get more from the next version then just S voice as they did with the 4S and a bit more power.
[Galaxy S III General] Arsaw:
If you rooted, you won't bother whether Samsung update on time or not because you have everything the best XDA can offer you. If you are not rooted, obviously you are not software geek, why bother whether your GS3 running ICS, Jellybean, Gingerbread or any other version? Everything is a big problem to human if he or she want to think that way.
[Galaxy S III General] mertzi:
yeah sorry you're right, I was certain I read the other day that they cancelled the plan but now I see it will get it july or august, still very late. And considering that, why wont sgs1 get it officially?

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

having a nexus phone doesn't guarantee you getting updates in the future. look at N1. and NS got it's first update pulled fast and then it took several months before a new ICS update came. That's why I don't care about the nexus line. And I think that the SGS3 will be a phone that feels fresh longer than any phone before, even with android 4.
[Galaxy S III General] Jay Ssj:
ye, even i was thinking about that problem but then i just thought that if android 5 comes out then i will use the customised rom
[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
Custom rom/buy new phone.

Ive had enough of waiting for retarded companies to update things.

Motorola milestone - 6 months late, not fully functional (GB)

LG optimus 3d - not available till september 2012 (at the earliest), sold with the promise of prompt ics update, instead waiting more than a whole year.

Never waiting for an update again. Just gonna buy the new phones.
[Galaxy S III General] thebobp:
They messed up on the Dec update and probably had to redo. Unfortunately, company bureaucracy works much more slowly than we do, and a new update cycle can take 3-5 months. This is true for any company that offers warranties - they have to break as little as they can.

Had they not messed it up, however, NS could have had its upgrade hella quickly.

Don't want to deal with company bureaucracy? Flash homebrew (NS certainly had them much, much more quickly). Otherwise there's still no better option.
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
s3 will get official JB update and may be cm11 or cm12 for the other version of androids
[HTC Sensation] Dandude159:
List your setups/problems you have so far with this build here. I have everything at default globally, and certain apps (contacts, youtube, etc. at Tablet.

My only issue is that camera is broken. OP has not listed camera as one of the problems on the rom however.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
The camera and video recorder work fine for me. Now the camera is different as it does not take the full screen pictures but it is still good.

Did you do a clean install?
[HTC One X] silt1:
Hey,

Got my One X yesterday and so far it's been really amazing. There are two issues that are getting increasing annoying though. I am based in Hong Kong, my oneX is running the latest available software 1.29.708.9

(1) I mostly use the university on-campus 802.11x network. After using Google Maps for around 20seconds, it remains connected to the network but I am no longer able to use the Internet. I need to manually restart the Wifi (On/Off) in order to be able to use it again. It does not happen usually with any other software, youtube HD vids as well as heavy-content webpages both work like a charm.

Moreover, after not having used the phone for an hour or so, the phone appears to have the same symptoms, ie. remains connected to the network but I have to restart the wifi manually in order to use it. It is quite a big deal as I have to restart the network every now and then to make sure I dont have any new emails/ whatsapp msgs.

I did some reading and people here seem to have been able to solve the problem by changing to band to 2.4Ghz as opposed to the 5Ghz freq. I could not locate that option anywhere though. Is it available in the stock HTC ROM?

Any solutions?

(2) The 3-dot bottom menu in non-ICS apps (especially games) is extremely annoying. I dont mind exchanging the recent apps button for the settings button so that I can get rid of the black bar. I found this topic http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1582506 but the problem is I am running a 1.29.708.9 version . Is it going to be compatible with that mod? Can I basically install it over my current stock ROM once I root the phone?

Most of the custom ROMs available are based on the x.xx.401.xx version. Can I still install and use these ROMs without any issues?

Cheers!
[HTC One X] veerm:
1. I think they are talking about changing band from 2.4Ghz to 5Ghz freq on the WiFi Router NOT on your phone.

BUT you can download/install an app from Play store named "Power Saver Settings" and uncheck "Put data connection to sleep" option

2. AFAIK you can install custom ROMs with no problems. BUT check with the ROM developer prior to installing. You are solely responsible if anything goes wrong...am sure you are aware of that.

Hope this helps. Cheers
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lucianors:
Hello guys.

I must have done something really wrong during my U8800 update to ICS. I just can't boot my phone anymore. All i can see is an endless Android ICS style splash screen when i turn it on.

These are the steps i followed in order to make the update:

1) Upgraded to HUAWEI U8800 Android 2.3 for beta original rom

2) Rooted the phone using superoneclick

3) Installed CWM Recovery v5.5.0.4

4) Using CWM, installed the ics-aurora zip form the SD card.

After that, i my phone just can't work anymore. Is there anything i can do to bring it back to life?

Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
Did you wipe anything? If not try to wipe user data/ factory reset, wipe cache partition and davlik cache install zip and then wipe them again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lucianors:
I managed to reinstall U8800 2.3 Beta 1 Official now, but the WIFI of this version doesn't work, so that's why i was trying to get an update to the ICS.

I tried to wipe everying from CWM Recovery more than once, and then reinstalling the zip image, but i had no luck.

Any idea about what i might have done wrong in the first time?

Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
Did you try wiping after you installed to?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lucianors:
Yes, i did.

Should i do it prior installing too?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
Yea, think so.

Are you sure your installing the full ROM and not just an update? You have to install the full ROM first and then the update. 3.1 is the newest version now.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lucianors:
What i dum i am. You nailed it... i was installing only the updates...

It works now, but still can't enable wifi :/

Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Qqqxxxzzz:
Do you have IMEI and mac?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
You're not the first and will probobly not be the last one that makes that mistake :D but about wifi I have no idea:(

Good luck solving it tho!
