[Acer Iconia A500] Sorgenbringer:
Had the same problem.

The solution is:

When you are conected to your pc.

You must set your device in apx mode by hand.

Hold the little reset button with a needle or something and hold the power button for I think max 5sec.

If windows say new device found(sound) release the buttons.

If now displays black and the power button is on(led)

You are in apxmode.

Now you can flash the bootloader.

I did it with the blackthun3r tool

I hope that will help you,

when i had the problem i was scared because my devise won't boot any more.

After it all was fine.

Thanks for the update - I will work up the courage to try and flash the bootloader again. atm I am rocking ICS on the GB bootloader so I am not in too much of a rush however all the roms will eventually require the ICS bootloader for more advanced features.

helpw with unbricking a500

Hello all,

I tried to installed ICS based on this post here http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1622425.

here are the steps i did

1. downloaded all the items required that is APX flash tool and Thor 1.7.3 recovery, V8-UNL-ICS-HC-bootloader-MULTI-cwm.zip

2. got my cpuid and sbk

3. connected the iconia to computer with usb cable

4. started the apx flash tool.

5. entered my sbk by copy from text file and pasting in the dialog box of flash tool. and clicked the right arrow

6. selected the 'V8-UNL-ICS-HC-bootloader-MULTI-cwm.zip' file.

7. saw the acer logo and the a500 in apx mode

8. finally the flash tool said done and asked to boot the tablet.

9. after booting the tablet, i found that it only says 'Skrilax-CZ's bootloader V8 Bootin primary kernel image"

I am now completely lost as how I can move forward to install the Thor 1.7.3 revoery and the ICS ROM on here.

I am unable to make this tablet go into APX mode as suggested in the post by civato, both manually as well as using the blackthund3r a500 manager. A500 manager reports 'A500 detected in normal mode. debugging enabled.

I would appreciate any help on resolving this.

Thanks

The bootloader is already on your tab. Turn the tab off, press and hold vol- and press the power button to turn it on and see, if it boots into recovery.

I'm a wee bit confused here.

Step 4 OK

Step 5 OK

Step 6 ??

The apxflash tool usually uses the a500.apex files UNLESS u choose use yr own files option

The zip u flashed is what u need to use Civ's manual nvFlash method

BUT apxFlash IS able to use the .bin and .img from the extracted files inside the zip and

I.m wondering if this has caused yr issue with entering apx mode again, I don't think it should have,

but there's been some weird things happening lately so its hard to say!!!!

But for future reference it may be good practice to use the apxFlash-in-app bundles for the initial flash OR

run the zip file via manual nvFlash just in case there is conflict.....

Once u have the patched BL on yr tab feel free to experiment to yr hearts desire, lol....

Just stick with the program for yr initial flash!!!

U now have fastboot available to u, any particular reason u r needing to use the automated tools?

Check yr drivers and reinstall if need be and reboot both devices....

ooops... problem for me as it's your country's vodafone and I do not get single word in Romanian. but, ok, let's try sort things out:

1. it's branded ROM. sometimes branded ROMs suffer from too many or too less apps. are you sure it's not removed by your operator? maybe they didn't want to use vlingo license. is it possible you'd download vodafone's user manual for gt-i9100 ICS (some operators already updated their guide books to ICS ROM versions). maybe you know somebody who has the same phone/exact same ROM and has voice talk active - just that we'd be sure it's supposed to be there;

2. go to applications menu (not apps acreen - go via settings) and look through applications list trying to find it there;

3. how did you update your ROM - over Kies? what you used before - GB? did you wipe your phone after upgrading?

4. I'll download your ROM and extract it to check if this app is there at all - I'll let you know.

5. you may also go to this page

http://www.vlingo.com/

and try to download it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negreadanut:
it's from vodafone but it's unlocked by them il all networks.

i've updated over kies and before i had GB and on GB i had voice talk.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaeilge:
ok, sorry I couldn't reply earlier. now, vlingo is present in your ROM. you may:

1. reinstall ROM via Odin (did you do wipe after update? - maybe FW update didn't go well, especially when you did it by Kies. with Kies everything may happen and a lot of users suffer huge issues after this, many times blaming the ROM for some problems while it's Kies'es fault. definitely it's good to do wipe, especially with *2767*3855# - but be carefull, it will erase all your data so you should back it up first).

2. try do download vlingo from the web page (the link I gave you in previous post)

3. if you do not feel like doing anything of above I may send you vlingo.apk file exctracted from your ROM.

I have tested today the galaxy note, in a shop, running under android 2.1 or 2.3 ( I don' t remember...)

the device was so slow to use. it was really really slow. a lot of lags,the behavior was not good.

is the galaxy note faster with ICS?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
There are varying opinions. Personally i found it smoother generally although was using launcher7 instead of touchwiz. The task management is fantastic. If youre looking at stock ics, samsung in their wisdom have skinned it exactly the same as gb which really annoyed me!

There are settings to select if you want hardware image decoding or software, i have a feeling its glitchy if using software.

[HTC One X] drew.a.s:
My one x seems to give a really bad yellow tint when using the flash in photos.

Any one know of a fix?

Also it has quite bad motion blur. Just taking photos of people, if their arms move and not their head, the arms are completely blurred but their head isn't.
[HTC One X] drramana:
same problem here..yellow tint for close up photos by using flash..good quality without flash..do we need to change any settings? iso/white balance etc. to sort this out.

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 AM ----------

just found a way to overcome this yellow tint issue with flash...reduce the saturations to -1 and the yellow tint has almost disappeared...it is a temporary solution till HTC sorts it out in the next OTA hopefully.

same here... :(

I compared pictures made on my phone with those of my wife's sensation xl and hers camera produces much more life like colored pictures without any noise. I already posted this remarks on HTC official blog, but received no answers for it.

Also I noticed that in reviews of hox, reviewers used HDR function and pictures were perfect as opposed to mine, where people are "ghosts", because they moved when I was taking HDR images and so their legs, arms were duplicated and transparent... weird! This doesn't happen again on my wife's sensation xl. Same camera, completely different results.

I also sent this remarks to HTC support almost a month ago, but received no answer from them.

Hi guys, recently I've noticed the same thing. With flash I get a horrible yellow tint,but without flash the pictures looks awesome. I'm going to email htc and we'll see if I get any usefull info.
[HTC One X] townay:
Try changing the white balance to florescent when using flash ?

could help, but I suspect you'd get a bluish tint.
[HTC One X] hox1:
Official answer from HTC support about my camera problems:

I apologies that the camera and video recorder are not up to your requirements, the device does have image stabilisation so it should not be having any of these issues, after looking at your camera I can see that it is definitely not working correctly, whether it be a hardware or software issue would be hard for me to diagnose and I would advise performing a factory reset to see if that resolves the issue.

:rolleyes:

I already contacted them, they replied that their test phone was working fine and they enjoyed taking photos on it, and that I should learn how to use the camera properly or take a few shots to see which comes out best for my usage, lol!

It depends on the process you use and what CM9 based ROM you choose. If you format /system, and you use a non-Aroma .zip, you need to flash twice in a row. More help and info can be found in the thread of the ROM you choose.

Hello again forum:

If you have a bootanimation that is placed in /data/local that is causing you trouble, flash this zip in recovery; it will remove it. Make sure you have another bootanimation in /system/media!

Feel free to comment and what not.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Recently I tried to make a bootanimation and I epically failed in doing so. When I applied my bootanimation to my xoom and rebooted, my xoom was going crazy!

Luckily, I had my bootanimation in /data/local and I still had the stock bootanimation in its respective location.

After panicking for a couple minutes or so, I decided that I was going to take my bad bootanimation out of /data/local by recovery. I took one of the gapps zips I had laying around, and I took out everything I didn't need and modified the script to remove the bad bootanimation.

Here it is.

Today I learned the importance of putting bootanimations in /data/local.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

BTW: Remember to always make a nandroid, and remember to check what zip you rename to bootanimation.zip!

So there are tons of different variations of MIUI nowadays and I just wanted to get a take on what everyone's favorite is, cus I myself have tried out many, and just thought it might be useful to have others feedbacks on certain versions and what not. Specifically I am interested in those who have SPEEDY builds of MIUI; referencing builds like AdyScorpius' build, or Dragon's MIUI SP, or RGUI, MIUI Scotland, things like that; ones with hardware acceleration. I've tried out all of the above including the normal builds, and the ICS of the ones above offered, and was wondering what everyone's favorite was. I'm talking about GINGERBREAD BUILDS, for Speed and Stability, since that is what I'd be using, but if you have ICS build and are commenting on that please go ahead too, just mention ICS. Specifically when commenting put which rom, the build, and what you like about it, or don't like about others. I have my own opinions about each of those but would like some extra feedback, thanks a lot. I'll give an example below:

Currently using MIUI SP (GB), it's got basically everything I'm looking for, has the ICS framework of MIUI, Stock SG2 Camera, as well as MIUI themes. Used Galnet but it wasn't quite as stable, had some mix ups with connection dropping right before a call, and lockscreen was inconsistent. RGUI is sweet, cept Bluetooth doesn't work. AdyScorpius is probably the fastest rom I've ever run but the market FC's every time...
