Hi,

Has anyone managed to download the firmware update from Huawei's website here? I've been unable to download it for weeks now. The link seems to be down. Any mirrors?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] v35lee:
Are you serious?

Try the search feature?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] goister:
I managed to download it after trying several times. However, I keep getting a FAIL when I follow the instructions, i.e. copy the dload directory to the root of my sdcard, insert it, press and hold volume down + power button.

And from the FAIL screen, I can only reboot back into the update screen, which fails again.

1. What have I done wrong?

2. Since the battery is fixed, how can I force shutdown?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] rurou:
Usually that happens if the download is corrupted. Try to redownload the fw again. Btw, have you tried to remove the SD card? If the SD card with dload folder (with relevant files inside) is inserted then it would always go to the update screen.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] 441Excelsior:
to force shutdown hold power button for 10 seconds
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] goister:
Thanks. Turns out there's something wrong with my sdcard. I don't know why - they're working perfectly fine in Windows or in other phones. Anyway, I tried a 3rd card and it worked.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] 441Excelsior:
make sure that your card is formatted to FAT32

I bricked my galaxy player 4 by flashing sprint epic 4G touch rom on it. It was rooted and failed in Odin and now it doesn't boot at all. It just has a black screen. I'm able to enter download mode with Adam's resurrector and Windows in virtualbox. I flash back to stock and repartition and nothing. It still doesn't boot and I've tried button combos and everything and no results. Idk what to do anymore. I want to unbrick it. Please help me.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] pedyjoon:
oh.I think you can't fix it by yourself.you should show it to professional repairment or warranty service.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] mrchezco1995:
Hmmmm.... I think you need to JIG your galaxy so download mode will work properly. Try finding a JIG for your Galaxy Player
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Arlicc:
if you can go to Download mode, its good, i thinik, you have got partition table fault, so, you should get new partition table and its should back to life.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] exodus454:
I vote partition problem. I had the same problem with my device and was able to resurrect it. As long as you can see download mode you can still bring it back. Try flashing the PIT file for your device, if that doesn't work you might have to repartition manually.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
I don't know because I heard jigs don't work with hard bricks. I've tried repartitioning with the pit for my player and it doesn't work. I know that able to enter download mode with unbrickable resurrector is a good sign. I keep flashing stock and repartion and nothing. Idon't think its partition problem. It would've worked by now.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] daniel644:
First, What in the world possessed you to try the ROM of not only a different device, but a different manufacture? You should count your blessing you where able to get download mode.

Second now that the scolding is over, go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531850 if that method doesn't recover your device then your up a creek without a paddle.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] exodus454:
I've screwed my player up to the point where a PIT file won't recover it. No matter how many times I flashed a PIT or ROM/kernel, nothing would change.

You have to manually recreate the partitions through ADB.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
Well I wanted to have the galaxy s2 rom on it and the international wouldn't work due to the physical home button. So I picked a us carrier such as sprint. That was actually my last method but heimdall kept saying error: failed to receive response, so I gave up. Yea that's what I heard to manually partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
This is a bit off topic, but if you really want a SGSII rom on your SGP, just contact a SGP dev and ask them to port it (with permission from the original dev of course :) ).

Sorry for the slightly off-topic post
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
Yea that was a slightly-off topic post.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
So I was finally able to repartition and successfully flash kwipper's rooted rom for my player. I am able to access download mode via buttons. But it still doesn't power on or enter recovery mode. My pc recognizes as a storage device (YP-G1) when its plugged in.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
Ok follow these instruction(don't forget to check re-partition)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1531850
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
I've already tried that method with Heimdall and it gives error failure to receive response. I can't tar those files either because it fails with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zaclimon:
In what OS you are using heimdall?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
Used Heimdall 1.3.2 and 1.3.1 on Windows 7 x64 and Ubuntu x64.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] soultaker123:
Zadig

did you use zadig to install the drivers
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
Yes I did. It still didn't work so I gave up and sent it to Samsung. Fully working now and rooted stock rom. I'm thinking of flashing a custom rom. Is there a custom rom running ics that has wifi bluetooth gps and camera working?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goldflame09:
first of all DO NOT repartition. second, have you tried flashing any other rom besides the stock
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] androidlover54:
No and i'm glad i don't have that problem anymore. Samsung solved it for me and repaired my player.

I'm looking for an app where you can set a schedule to execute an app on my phone, for example if I schedule an app to open at 10:30 am, it will execute at that specific time. Is there an app like that ?

Is there also an IM app that does the same thing but for logging in your IM account? um an example would be like this, I'll set a schedule for this IM account to log in at 10:30am, so when 10:30am comes it should log in.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibbix:
In preparation for getting my Verizon Galaxy S3, I have went through all the features I need for a phone, and realized that the most important one features is not documented anywhere. MobileFun's "Mobile Fun Connection Kit," has connects via MicroUSB and uses USB on the go to process attached USB devices on the USB port. Is it possible to use the MicroUSB in the adapter with Samsungs official MHL adapter, or Adapter Tip (Meaning I plugin the the Connection Kit via microUSB, then attach a device(Keyboard, mouse, etc.) via USB port, then use the connectors microUSB port to attach the MHL adapter, transmit the video signal to the TV, and then use the MHL's microUSB adapter to power the device)to the Connector. If not, (Do to bandwidth issues, or generally insanity of the question), are their any alternative implantation's I can use? Are their any other on-the-go adapter with MHL and a USB port?

[HTC Amaze 4G] theking_13:
So I might be trading my Gnex for an Amaze + cash, but my main concern is battery life. That, and learning a different process of flashing roms/radios, since I've only ever tinkered with Samsung/LG devices.

So my fellow members, what screen on time (best way to measure battery life I think) do you guys get? I get around 5 hours on my Gnex. Mention what rom/radio as well if you can. :)

Sent from someone's Galaxy Nexus running AOKP + Franco
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Moderate use on stock, change a few settings, no unnecessary background programs, I get a decent 12-16 hours with moderate use, though to be honest, I text a lot, check my facebook, be on xda and stuff quite a bit. I set my screen timeout to 15s. So you gotta tweak it and mess with it a bit. Some custom roms have reported better life.
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
On speed Rom I get a full day with 40% to spare with a lot of browsing and playing games through the day, I'm sure you could get that with other roms as well. The amaze has no custom radio or kernel for ics at the moment
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
To be honest I've never measured/calculated my Screen On Battery Life. But total battery time for me is a good 12-16+ hrs.

Also its recommended, but not necessary, to S-Off your device. It makes flashing Roms much easier to flash. But if you don't want to perform that then use 4EXT Recovery and it can flash kernels without the use of fastboot to flash a kernel.

If the Amaze you get isn't updated to ICS then you're better off upgrading first before rooting and etc... Have Fun!

Thanks guys! Definitely seems like its closer to what I got with my G2x. :)

[HTC Amaze 4G] JesseMT4G:
I am just stock ICS and generally get 9-11 hours. Screen is usually on 2 plus hours and do a lot of Internet, XDA, FB and the like. Actually use my phone for phone calls too.

Gingerbread was so much better for me, but used to it now.

That is with Juice Defender on as well.

I will say if not using the phone much, stand by time is phenomenal! I have gotten 24 hours on ICS, but I barely used the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] d-pabs:
Hi, I (finally) updated my VZW Dinc phone to wildstang's 4.08.xxx ROM. Was much easier to do than I anticipated, so thank you wildstang. Forgot to backup my footprints before doing so and lost them all :( Anyways, my questions are as follows:

1. There are a series of apps which I thought I moved into app.disabled, however they still show up as being on my phone and have the icons in my apps list (e.g. 3G Mobile Hotspot, Amazon MP3, Apps (VZW), Twitter, and VZ Navigator). I'm guessing I must have missed a series of files and/or directories? Can someone please let me know what I need to do to move these?

2. Each and every time I turn off my GPS and then back on, I get this annoying message telling me "Standalone GPS Services: ...you are enabling access to all location information by any third party through the web,...." How do I remove that message/prevent it from being displayed?

Your help with these is much appreciated and thank you ahead of time.

Hi guys, i'm from Chile (sorry for my english in advance) and i have a very confusing problem... Every time i speak with my girlfriend she hears a very annoying interference sound... i don't hear it (actually i hear it trough her mic, but it doesn't sound in my headset).

The strange thing is that i can speak with everyone else without a problem, but she and only she hears the sound... if i call her from another phone she doesn't hear the sound... it something with my phone, not the region.

I thought it was a rom/kernel problem but i changed them several times without any results. Right now i have the exact same rom/kernel that came with the phone (thank you Doky) and the problem persist. The CSC is ok via the dialer *#272*_your_imei_#... Always 3G

[Motorola Droid 4] WraithBlade993:
Didn't see a post on this but hopefully it will be useful to some of the Droid Fam here. Basically I have found absolute **** for how to get out of a Droid 4 boot loop. So here is my solution.

Remove battery cover.

Peel up small sticky tab at the bottom of battery next to the Speaker Not above it!!!

Use a razor blade/Fine paper clip and remove rectangular rubber plug.

Use T5 torx and unscrew one of the screws(I use the outer most one)until the screen shuts off.

retighten screw and proceed with reflash/unbricking/restoring or whatever lol.

Again I know this is hardware based but it is in relation to Boot loops.

Edit: Even though this is an option. (Note the back of the battery)

http://techcrunch.com/2012/02/13/mo...ienates-and-pisses-off-your-core-demographic/

It didnt work in my case... so lol, the above still stands. Hopefully this will soon be realized by 3rd party battery companies too.

I brought up the thread for ICS which was a happy thing, but this is a sad topic. According to the att website, it is no longer available. It was on sale for a year, and it was one of ATT's biggest selling phone for a long time. It is now retired :( What are your thoughts on this? Btw heres the link to prove: http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/devices/cellphones.html
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
the infuse was out of production within about 3 months of release. any infuses sold after that were either overstock or refurb. this is no new news. no surprise. it's a nice phone with nice cameras and a big readable screen but it was the last single core flagship phone and was released after dualcores were common. it's out of date and less powerful than many second rate phones on the market today in processing power.

i dont think a better phone is necessary, but the hardware profile combined with the samsung firmware keeps rom ports from ever being viable without sacrifices. as much as i have loved the phone it's about to be time for something new.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] foehammer92:
I completely agree with Dani, when i purchased my infuse i knew it was second string with the galaxy s 2 already out. I was on a tight budget and it was the best option and im not surprised it is no longer for sale especially with the s3 coming very soon!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AbstractMind87:
This is saddening but understandable news. I bought my Infuse back in November 2011, non-contract for $485 after taxes at my local AT&T store, the sales rep actually brought me out a Galaxy S II at first and asked me if I wanted that instead.

I paused for a moment and told him I did my research on both phones and told him I preferred the Infuse's specs. Was satisfied with the RAM, the single core, and impressed that it had better battery life; not to mention it was a good $100 cheaper. I was coming from the Motorola Backflip and just couldn't take the constant slow downs and limited internal storage any longer, and a bigger screen was what I needed.

Fast forward a few months, and here we are coming up on the stateside release of the Galaxy S III and ya know what, I'm still Infuse strong. Samsung did a better job on this phone than they realized. I'm not likely to get an S III because I'm still satisfied with this phone, even with my upgrade available in August. Don't get me wrong, the S III is an impressive phone in its own right, but now that we have ICS, I see no reason to jump ship, mine is sailing smoothly
