[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0mas_:
im having trouble wirh "reboot recovery" command in my terminal/adb shell

when i try to run in terminal, i get "not permitted!"

and "adb shell reboot recovery" returns [1] Segmentation fault reboot recovery

if i try running reboot -f in terminal or adb shell, i get "usage: reboot [-n] [-p] [rebootcommand]"

i've checked /system/bin, and the reboot bin is there

i've checked the permisssions, originally set to rwsr-sr-x

changing them to rwxr-xr-x makes no change

i found several threads with ppl having the same trouble:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=935715

the only one i found useful is the 1st one

the only way i got reboot working is by deleting /system/bin/reboot, and using "reboot -f". without the -f switch nothing happens. if i do reboot recovery -f, it only rebots

but what i really want is to reboot into recovery. any idea on how to? i read in first linked post that the problem is in symlinked reboot to busybox, thats why deleting helped somewhat. anyone has an idea on how to get rebooting to recovery in terminal working?

oh, and my rom is rcmix 4.0. i've read that problem is rom related. but i dont want to switch, because it would defeat the purpouse in the first place....

Hello.

Yes, today morning I did a really stupid thing, I let my phone fell in the water. I immediately took it out and opened the back removed the battery and cleaned everything. After like 5 minutes i put the batttery on and switched it on. The phone booted but it said no signal. I tried playing music on it and i saw that water had seeped into the speakers (Music wasnt loud). I shut down and removed and let phone dry for sometime. then now when i try to switch it on it is stuck on samsung bootlogo. I am stuck :( It does go into download mode though. I really dont want to take any other stupid step. REALLY need your help here community.

Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sebastiand95:
looks like ur mother board is busted!!...did u try the hard reset button ??...The Galaxy SL has a hard reset button between the camera lens and the speaker

1)Open the back cover

2)Check between the Camera Lens and the speaker

3) There is a hard reset button which is a small cavity

4) You will need two people for this.. Keep that cavity pressed with a pin

5) Keeping it pressed use the download mode combo- Volume down + Home + Power pressed.

6)Wait and try it a couple of times and your phone will enter download mode

7)Flash to a stock firmware

hope it works...

and for water in the parts of speaker n all try keeping the phone in a dry rice bag for some hours...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Lostboy2909:
It did go into download mode. I flashed stock rom but its still stuck at the samsung galaxy GT-I9003 logo. I have no idea what to do! :(

I guess il have to take it to the service center now. :(

And I was on ddkp3 before and then after the incident i flashed xxkpe. It didnt work. :(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crk1995:
They would get to know that ur device has been in water...

So they wont do it for free...

And if and if they couldnt get to know abt ur incident then u r a lucky guy...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marshygeek:
You should have waited for the water to evaporate by using hair blow (not to hot) or waiting for it for about 1 day. I was like OMG 5 minutes? Sorry pal.

Goodluck! tell them it went into bootloop or sumthing... i think they dont fix damaged phones because of getting wet... the service center techniians told me that when i brought mine... until now it is still there, but its fixed... the my mom said they change the int memory from 4 gig to 16! i dont have time to get it yet so ill leave it there foor a while :(

Motorola has just unveiled a new addition to its mobile phone portfolio and it's a pretty strange device. The new handset is a featurephone called Motorola MOTOKEY 3-CHIP and has 3 SIM card slots as its key selling point.

The other highlights of the MOTOKEY 3-CHIP are a full physical QWERTY keyboard a 2 MP camera, an FM radio receiver and a microSD card slot. The handset will have a 2GB microSD card included in its retail package.

I just tried it and it works but its a bit finicky you have to plug the phone in before you start it up and the first time I used it, I test flashed fc09 modem it soft bricked it until I did it again with v1.61 but I tried a second time on 3.04 and it worked

In older 1ceCream rom versions I could choose another language than english but since v1.1 only appears english in language selection. I've seen into framework-res.apk that it contains language translations but I don't know why I can't choose it after.

can u try to read the forum with the thread?

v1.1 is on Decked_X rom... and decked has only english...

Ok, sorry for ignorance. I've tried morelocale2 from market and nothing happens.

That's exactly what I tought, i was using Decked_X in the past and morelocale2 nerver worked too.. :S So.. we "only" have to decompile it?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] 1ceb0x:
You cannot do anything since the multilanguage must be compiled from source in order to work!

Use v0.1 or v0.2 instead.

Sorry but so many people were complaining that after some time the speed is decreasing that I had to change the base rom..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] atimus:
Then if I try to translate files from framework-res of the rom I won't achieve anything?

I'm very interested in this rom, now it's the best rom for the hero (I think) and I would translate this for spanish people.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] 1ceb0x:
Not that I know of... You may achieve translating the surface of the phone (settings, and such) but apps will stay on english.

I may do a version of the rom with CM7.2 as a base just for you people.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] solosteran:
One Up for that.

I am very intereseted in this rom aswell. But as my g/f doesnt speak english that well and the phone is for her its "useless". Nonetheless it seemed quiet snappy. Good work.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] alessandrocattelan:
Hi,

I've just got my P7300 repaired by an official Samsung repairer. I have the feeling, though, that they installed a non-stock firmware on the tablet as I cannot update anymore. When trying to update OTA, I get an error message that suggest using Kies. When I use Kies, I get this message:

"Your device does not support upgrading via Kies"

Before sending it out for repair, I was able to update to Android 3.2. Now I'm stuck with 3.1 and the device performance is really poor. Going through Samsung support, at least here in Italy, is hell and takes forever (like two months...).

Therefore, I would like to flash a stock firmware on this device so as to fix the issue myself. I've read the guide in the forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1406137) but I must say I'm quite lost...

I don't understand where to find stock firmware for the P7300 nor do I understand how to flash it... Is Odin the way to go? What if the flashing doesn't work? Will I be able to revert to the crappy firmware I have now?

Sorry for the long post and thanks for any help.

Alessandro.

Lost? That guide's as clear as day. Are you sure you read it? Make sure you read carefully, because I do address your issue in the guide in a very short and easy to understand way.

You have the option to swipe left..but only with slide to unlock. I can't say I've seen any iPhone with that function though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RichAP:
iphone 4s definitely has this feature even with Pin Code enabled, I have one in front of me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tjhart85:
Personally, I disagree ... If I lock my phone, I don't want people to be able to do anything with the phone. Isn't that the point of the lock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RichAP:
Well, that's why we have these things called options.

I lock my phone because if I lose it or its stolen I dont want anyone to have access to my data...I dont care if the only thing they can do is take pictures...as a matter of fact I would encourage this so I can track them via GPS info on the pics ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
If you are rooted I guess tasker or similar app can be configured to take pictures for you on lock screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chancy319:
Then remove the pin if you want easy access to the camera.

I bet if i didn't mention IOS in my OP I wouldn't have had all these unhelpful replies :rolleyes:

Since when did Android become the land of no options/customizations?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Warwickeo:
The idea itself is quite nice.

Maybe android itself won't make it possible? I could imagine that there are just no permissions to execute anything without unlock. However the community is insane and solves problems like that.

I don't use any lock so I can't tell you if any rom I used so far had this kind of feature :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
How are the replies not helpful? The fact is you can't.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RichAP:
So it looks like you can do this with a few 3rd party apps.

Right now I am testing this Setting Profiles.

I have Profiles setup to disable Lock when connected to my home WiFi or my cars Bluetooth.

It has disabled the Lock Screen & Pin entering all together while home, but I will test this out more today during my travels.

If settings profile doesn't work well, then I will try this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.benhirashima.unlockwithwifi&hl=en

Unlock With Wifi which seems to do most of what I use Settings Profiles for anyway.

And Josh, most of the replies just said "why" would I want to do this.

Thanks Herman76 for pointing me in the right direction.

This might be possible because you can use wallet without unlocking the phone even with corporate email.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RichAP:
Delayed Lock

Update:

Although Settings Profile did what I wanted, it was screwing up my Bluetooth connection. (Seems the app hasn't been updated in months...)

Right now I am testing Delayed Lock Free Trial.

It has plug-in to disable the Pin Lock based on Wifi AP connected, Bluetooth Device or GPS Location...so it brings me to the slider unlock screen where I have my Camera as an option (AOKP)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...CwiZGUuajR2ZWxpbi5kZWxheWVkbG9jazIudHJpYWwiXQ..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kookooktchoo:
AOKP gives you an option to view the standard slide lockscreen before viewing the secure lockscreen, but you still have to put in your pin/pattern after sliding over to the camera. This isn't what you're looking for, but it seems to be a bit faster than putting in the pin THEN opening the camera app (especially if you enable the quick pin unlock in Rom Control).

There's also the option of using the above method with face unlock. After sliding, you'd move to face unlock then open to the camera app.
