[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cob11341:
So recently I have just noticed on my Epic Touch thatI have a pink LED flash when I gently tap the power button and completly restarts. I thought it was a FF11 Rom bug but I went back to stock EL29 Gingerbreak and it consists with the same problem. So the verdict of my problem is to ask, do you guys think this is a software and/or software bug? Because it has done this for the past few days, making my phone unusable at times.

Edit: Power button does not turn my screen off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Could be a hardware issue. At the worst, just restore it back to stock and have it checked out at sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cob11341:
Yeah it is a hardware problem. But do you know a link to find the stock no root EL29 rom?

Edit: Oh, and if you plan on bringing it in to Sprint, move everything you want to save off of the internal SD, and don't forget to remove your external SD card if you're using one too, then format the internal SD in settings -> storage (No point in leaving anything behind for them to find). ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
There was a post from a guy at Sprint that said you don't need to go back to stock to have them take a look at it - I'll try to find it here because it surprised me:

If it goes out for warranty repair, why risk them denying the repair or replacement? Its so easy to flash a one click odin. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_ahmadzais:
bought a new galaxy nexus for 599.99 on febuary and already there is problems with losing signals and biggest problem of all is that my phone wont charge the only way to charge it is to turn it off and charge and that sometimes works and sometimes doesnt i have to keep unplugging and plugging back the usb.

i read alot about this issue on google and samsung is not doing about it.

so i called samsung i dont know where thier call centre is i called from canada. and spoke to a manager to send my phone for repair and told him can you make this quicker cause he was slow and my movie at theatre was gonna start in 10 mins and already been talking to this manager for 15 mins. and he puts me on hold and comes back after 6 mins and ask for my email. and i told him my email and i wanted to make sure he got it right and got him to repeat it for me. OMG THIS GUY WAS STUPID AS HELL I SWEAR TO GOD HE GOT IT WRONG MORE THAN 12 TIMES. so i told him i have to go to movie and im not gonna repeat myself so you better get it right this time. and he got it wrong again im 100% sure he was doing it on purpose so i told him . LISTEN repeat it again and say it correctly and he said IM SORRY BUT FOR SECURITY ISSUE I HAVE TO HANGUP THE CALL. and the guy hangup on me im soo pissed at this and at samsung that i will never ever buy a samsung phone or recommend it to my customer. i went to samsung galaxy s3 training and told the canada head manager she didnt even acknowledged me thats bs.

Well let's see.

#1 did you get your USB port wet? Because I had the charging issues you describe with the fantastic combination of a wet USB port, and a crappy, cheap USB cable.

#2 The signal issue is a pretty well documented 4.0.4 issue. You're on xda, ffs. Upgrade or downgrade your radio.

I never understood why people say "I will never buy a product from this company again!!" after having a bad experience with one of the products / representatives. It just sounds like you got a lemon and a bad representative to speak to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dr.m0x:
Yeah well if you get uppity with customer service people they won't react well, you get a lot further by being polite. You were poetically the 27th person he spoke to that morning and he was probably busting for a leek and his lunch was probably getting cold and the last two people he spoke to were probably jerks as well and its not really his fault your phone is faulty but everyone yells at him as if he broke their phones personally.

I am in a customer service role and when people start yelling at me for things which are beyond my control, I loose all interest in helping them.	Sometimes if they're really annoying I will deliberately lead them astray, put them on hold or transfer them to people who can't help them. On the other hand if people approach me in a more respectful way I'm more than happy to go the extra mile for them.

Maybe if you grew up and showed a bit more compassion you might get better results. Customer service people are human beings and have needs and emotions just the same as you do so you have no right to treat them like punching bags on which to vent your frustration.

I had damaged USB port on Galaxy S II and to avoid all that hassle i simply went to Samsung service center and asked them to repair it as out of warranty product. Two days + 30€ and i had my phone back.

[HTC One X] alvtminghui:
Hello,

I've recently flashed ARHD ROM's onto my One X.

Everything is fine except for the statusbar when there are notifications.

Here is my statusbar when it is normal;

Before

Here it is when there is a notification;

*Note that the Wi-Fi, Network and Battery icons move away except the centred clock.*

After

My question is: Is there any statusbar mods that I can replace with this one, maintaining everything else but the clock will move as well when there is a notification?

Thank you.
[HTC One X] walaway:
You may have already known the answer.

That is normal when you set your clock in the middle of the status bar, notifications such as tweets, texts or any other message will overlap. Can't do nothing about it I also am/was on ARHD
[HTC One X] alvtminghui:
I have switched to the stock statusbar with Battery% using this mod.

However, occassionaly systemui would fail.. Is it because I cannot simply replace my existing statusbar mod with this mod?

Please advise me..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
I recently acquired a galaxy nexus. It has a slight purple tint at like under 15%, and a huge one at exactly 0%. Is there a way to adjust the colors so I can get rid of/minimize the effect. Also is there a rom that looks exactly like the stock or something. I am pretty nooby at this. What is the best kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Most kernels allow you to change your color settings, but I suggest you try Franco's App in the Play Store and download either his stable or exp version of his kernel, and then adjust settings in the "color control" settings area.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
All of our kernels will allow you to change the color settings and most of them have apps. All of the roms look like stock as well except paranoid android and slim ICS. Kernels are good and bad for everyone and what works for one person will not always work for another. You should try them out to see how your phone responds to them.

"Long is the way, and hard, that out of hell leads up to light."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
Do I have to make a back up? And how would I go about doing that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infazzdar:
Yes, you will have to make a backup.

Then just download the kernel and flash it via ClockworkMod Recovery.

Also, the kernel control apps do cost a small bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
Is the purple thing fixable via color control? Because at about 15% most purple goes away but if you look at gray under the notification center there's still purple.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Purple tint may be fixable with color control.

You'll have to play with the values, but I'm sure you can get a set-up that suits you.

Secondly, use my sig to get you up to speed on installing all of this if need-be.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
Do I flash rom before kernel? Or vice versa?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Rom then Kernel yes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Download AOKP. I know they have a working color control built in.

Or if you done want to change roms. Download the Franco.Kernel updater app.

It has a wonderful color control that I use all day depending on lighting. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
What's the difference between Franco color control and AOKP color control?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
They are the same really. But the app has a better layout and it works on ALL roms.

Also if u change the kernel on AOKP it won't work anymore.

I'll tell u how to get the Franco.kernel updater app in a PM. Okay???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
You wouldn't if you have the Franco.kernel updater.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
Get my PM???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
If I flash Kernel and Rom, can I still exchange my device if I'm not satisfied?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DLD511:
YES.

But make sure you unroot. Use wug's toolkit to do that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m0b1l3:
Guys, I just flashed AOKP and noticed the purple is gone. Should I still flash franco for better battery life?
[HTC Rezound] djh816:
So after my battery ran out today I realized that Clockworkmod does not allow charging while the phone is off... This left me in a tricky situation where I could not charge my phone at all. I had seen others mention using another battery but I did not have one on hand. Here's how I replaced Clockworkmod with Amon-Ra to fix it (this also works for all recovery images that I know):

REQUIREMENTS:

-Computer with ADB

-Rezound with Clockworkmod or other faulty recovery

-Amon-Ra's recovery image (attached)

1) Unplug USB and remove battery

2) Put battery in

3) Plug USB into computer (with ADB installed)

4) Enter "adb devices" until you see your Rezound show up as recovery. During this time, the orange LED may either blink shortly first or be solid for a few seconds and then turn off. Once it turns off, it should be accessible over ADB.

5) Grab your amonra recovery img and use adb to copy to phone.

Example: adb push amon-ra-3.15.img /tmp/amon-ra-3.15.img

6) Flash the image to recovery.

Example: adb shell flash_image recovery /tmp/amon-ra-3.15.img

7) Reboot your phone (adb reboot) and repeat steps 1-3 (but this time using wall outlet)

8) Sit back and let Amon-Ra save your Rezound. Once your orange LED has been solid for over a minute, you should be good :D
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Nice guide :)

Koush really needs to fix that problem or discontinue it for our phone
[HTC Rezound] con247:
It is discontinued. I don't even really know where to get it anymore lol.
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Granted, I don't use CWM, but nice job.
[HTC Rezound] djh816:
Rom manager. Also he offers touch for pay (which is what I mistakenly purchased thinking it could mount the internal sd. Either way though I agree, it is not safe for the average root user even to have a recovery that doesn't allow charging even through a wall outlet. It should only list Amon-Ra's under alternate recovery.

Thanks, I know the average user is using Amon-Ra or TWRP but figured I'd put this here so we have a clear guide for getting out of this situation where some users may end up returning their phone to HTC (possibly getting charged after the fact)
[HTC Rezound] superchilpil:
Its odd, those same people who can't search to find out how to fix the problem, can find CWM :P
[HTC Rezound] sobis1dm:
I'm fairly new to the Rezound. Came from the Nexus side because I wanted a more multimedia-friendly device (better external speaker/camera/same res). I bought mine pre-rooted and flashed to Clean, which was pretty nice - until I ran into this issue. I bought another battery from Verizon and hooked the other one up to an external charger. I figure it won't hurt to have two batteries anyway.

I know a ton of people have bad things to say about CWM but is this really the only issue? It flashes just fine, right? I ran a nandroid on what I have now and tried to install the latest leak, but I got a ton of reboots. Eventually reverted back to Clean. Either way, thanks for the writeup. Would have saved me a ton of stress over the weekend, hahaha.
[HTC Rezound] funnyangrykid:

[HTC Rezound] RED ZMAN:
I do. Haven't had issues. I just, if you can believe it, charge my battery before I do anything.
[HTC Rezound] RED ZMAN:
Btw, I would change, just to be safe, but haven't seen instructions for doing so, and don't really want the drama that USUALLY comes from asking a question (can't always find what you are searching for).
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
The OP of this thread are the instructions... Just do Steps 2-6.

Edit: or use hasoon2000's first AIO toolkit, which has AmonRa as a flash option (also another lingering source of CWM):

[HTC Rezound] djh816:
Haha I was fine as well with Clockworkmod Touch and had no clue it even had that problem until my battery finally drained all the way. Then I was SOL. But yea as he said, following those instructions simply replaces the recovery image. All your data will still be in tact (aside from your clockworkmod backups if you have them but Amon-Ra can read those too I think)
[HTC Rezound] RED ZMAN:
Yeah, I figured those instructions would work. You should advertise this as a how to swap between them also. There are others using CWM, and just not talking about it.

Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
I have an easier solution, while phone has been dead for 5-10 minutes, hold power button and as soon as screen flashes plug in the device. Works every time. I also have 3 batteries, 1 original, 2nd from my replacement from warranty, 3rd is extended. I don't ever even change batteries though.
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
Funny that people are still having/talking about this issue.

I remember when the issue first popped up on the Rezound and people were clueless. All kinds of theories as to the cause and solution. :D

I knew of the cause from a few phones back... CWM has a history of issues with charging while powered off. I learned of it from an initial release of CWM for a different phone would that when trying to charge with it powered off, would turn on the screen.
[HTC Rezound] lomar24:
Easiest way is to run the command

adb reboot download

boom phone restarts...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I have had this modded version of CWM touch by someone else (I will let him say who he is just in case he does not want to take credit).

It is a modded version of CWM 5.8.1.4-Touch that solves the charging when off problem.

I can not support it but can assure you it works since I have been using it since the beginning of April. I do switch between this and AmonRa for testing my ROM but all my backups are with this.

Still need to copy the .hidenandroidprogress file from internal to external clockworkmod folder to solve the freeze problem when backing up or restoring.

Just install it just like any other recovery.

NOTE: If anyone want to take this and start another thread with it that is fine by me. I just don't have time which is why I never posted it before.
[HTC Rezound] RED ZMAN:
I ended up doing it through fastboot, as I'm a bit more familiar with that, but thanks for the notes and link. I'm now on Amon Ra.

Anything I need to know as a CWM user since, oh, the G1?

And do I need to worry about moving that file so backups work, like you did in CWM?

Thanks again.

Thanks man, this this is totally pimp, sent you a donation - get yourself some good beer!
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
Nils - I would be happy to start something up in General tonight. I seem to be the only "defender" of CWM in the Rezound community, anyway. But I know most folks just use it due to previous experience with other phones.

If no one else has created a new thread for this by the time I get home from work, I'll create a new thread before sleepy-time.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Maybe we better not. I think the touch is a pay optiin meaning not free.

NEVER MIND: It is free if you download it from his site
[HTC Rezound] djh816:
I simply don't use because of the internal sd card bug it had and then the charging issue. I alerted Koush to the issue the first time I had SD troubles and he refunded me (had bought touch too) but after the second email mentioning this charging issue, no response. I would at least try to contact Koush and double check that he is ok with it but maybe that's just me :P
[HTC Rezound] WookieFan:
Ok, folks it's up in General. Review and blast me if I got anything wrong. It's hard to think after work, so don't be too harsh.:rolleyes:
[HTC Rezound] zhp pilot:
I will join you in defending CWM. I always used it. I'm tried AmonRA and it works good and I've used the "unofficial" unsupported" "port" of twrp that everyone drools over. Fact is, can't run vrtheme mods on twrp so it's useless in my book.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
Was taking a break from forum-surfing but I'm back now. This was my fix which I gave to NilsP. I think after several months of using it, I can say it's fairly stable, if you follow the install instructions.

Happy to attempt to provide basic support, but if your dog dies or you get fired after you install this don't ask me what to do. :)
[HTC Rezound] hekel:
So does CWM still have issues backing up and restoring.. I remember on a couple phones in the past CWM would seem to make backups fine, and restore them just fine, until you tried to boot the rom and it wouldnt boot. IIRC this was due to CWMs scripting, and it was the reason I ditched it for AmonRA.

The only thing CWM has going for it in my experience is Rom Manager.

Or just plug it in and let it sit for like 20 mins. It still charges. I have tested this many times since this thread was started. After you let it sit, pull the battery and put it back in. Hold power and bam, it boots it with plenty of power.
[HTC Rezound] punman:
That's ridiculous.

Yep. Or you could plug it in somewhere that you can use adb and run an adb reboot, which also works and then you don't have to take off your case to pop the battery.
[HTC Rezound] GIGZ1971:
hey i just ran into this problem, i was able to install twrp and able to boot to the recovery but when i pulled the battery and plugged it into the wall charger the orange light still blinks. Is this supposed to happen?:confused:

nevermind it started charging...thanks
[HTC Rezound] famouscollin:
i almost had this problem but quickly flashed back to amonRa. i believe people who are downloading "rom manager" are downloading it through there. at least thats how i stumbled upon it.. i didnt have it installed for an hour beforre i realized its buggy on this phone. AmonRA will always be the way to go for me on the rezound:)

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

no matter which recovery(working) if your batteries completely dead itll blink for a few min so you wont be able to power on right away. i believe the minimum power required for boot is about 2% and at least an additional 2% to stay powered. (remember when you boot the phone even if plugged in it stops excepting charge until it passes the splash screen)
[HTC Rezound] funnyangrykid:
Do u think it would hurt the phone if the manufacturers or Developers of the phone designed it to accept charge while on Splash screen and continue even till it fully boots up?

Yesturday, my phone was running kinda slow, so i restarted it. It then got stuck on the white HTC screen and would not get off that. I have clock work on my s-on rooted phone running CleanRom 4.5 ICS. After trying to restore in clockwork i keep getting unable to write to the cache error. Thinking that clockwork was bad i decided to catch back up and flash to the Amon-ra per instructions above. It has failed now. I can't get into any hboot now. I just get a blank screen and have to pull battery. Any suggestions?
