PuTTY is probably easier in the long run as it also supports Force echo on which is needed for setting up the Sbl seeing we can't see it on the SL. I'll make a guide today.

I also recommend PuTTY as it works in Linux too for those out there who use that.

Hillbeast thank you for your responses and sorry to ask one more question.

Can you please review this link below and advise if this will work? Reason I ask is, this item is local to where I live and I can avoid international shipping.

i bought arc s 2 days ago everything is ok except battery life , help what will i do to make my battery last longer :))
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpith.fbi:
first of all this is a WRONG section...question should go in Q&A section

u bought your new arc s just 2 days ago..give it some time to adjust..it requires few charging and discharging cycle before it gives you its battery life. efficiency of lithium batteries increases with time in the beginning..let the battery settle for a week then report back.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mo_3taz:
what is your android version

if it is ICS 4.0.3 i think the battery last for more than 24 hours if you use it normal calls browsing internet if you are playing and wifi i don't think it will last more than 8 hours , ICS 4.0.4 battery fast drain it doen't last for 8 hours even if u didn't use the mobile

i think the best version with battery is 2.3.4 i'm using doomkernel

also check the brigthness make it low as you can see only because this drain the battery fast

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmdisawesome:
Well, depends on the update, if it is 4.0.3, it stinks, slower than 2.3.4 A LOT.

4.0.4 update is a lot faster, and far more awesome performance.

Check your SI number to see if you are compatible with the 4.0.4. If you're not (like me), I would suggest staying at 2.3 until the 4.0.4 is compatible with ur device.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogobaba:
Yes the 4.0.4 update is really good the 4.0.3 is not really needed the 4.0.4 is the best

[HTC One X] eightlegs:
Guys got a bit of a weird one here or maybe I'm just missing something obvious but my haptic feedback has stopped working on the phones menu buttons (the 3 at the bottom). Still works fine on the keyboard but not the buttons. It was working fine until a couple of days ago.

All I have changed on my phone is I updated to 1.29.161.13 and after still having shocking battery life I fully discharged the device then AC charged it til the green light came on. Now I have no feedback? Can't find a menu option for this either - in sure there used to be one somewhere but can't find anything now. I'm stock, branded, not unlocked, not rooted and using apex launcher. Only app I've installed recently is some battery saver thing from the HTC hub.

Please help as I miss my buzz :(

[Blade General] rocker86:
Hello Mates,

Here I am posting the Way, Methods and Files to get rid of the problem arised with the latest recovery 5.0.2.0 in Idea Blades. I have found the way to solve it out through this thread thanks to Tetora.

The error will somehow as pasted below when You boot into recovery:

E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't find misc

E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

Due to this error one can not do anything in recovery like backup, restore,wiping,flashing roms , etc. and which is very annoying. This happens because the CWM reject or failed to identify the root access of the device.

Even I have a headache on my birthday due to the problem. I have followed that thread (post above) posted by tetora and sorten out the problem.

Now I can flash, backup, restore and can do anything with the recovery :)

There are two methods to get the recovery Working:

1 . Through ADB

Attached is the file to flash via adb.. Please follow the steps given below (thanks to matt4321) :

The 'flash_image' is within the attached zip file! Use the file within the zip file, NOT the zip file itself

The 'recovery.img' is your chosen recovery file, get this off ClockworkMods website or if you have a copy use that. Then when flashing the recovery image where ever it says 'recovery.img' replace that with the name of the recovery file. following me?

Here's the instructions:

(make sure you're in the command prompt and have changed directory to where the adb file is)

adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/

adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/

adb shell

su

mount -o remount, rw /system

cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin

cd /system/bin

chmod 777 flash_image

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

and then boot into recovery now everything should work perfectly.

A big thanks to tetora for finding the recovery image file and matt4321 for his commands :)

2. Through Recovery Manager:

Install the application Recovery Manager v0.37b.apk

Extract the image file from recovery zip and place in the SD card.

Open the application "Recovery Manager"

Go in recovery Tab to flash the recovery img. Once you select to "Flash Recovery" it will search the img file automatically.

After flashing recovery you are done.

Thanks to ramubhat for providing procedure and testing the same.

You can use this link for the second method. :)

Disclaimer- I will not responsible for any damage so use it at your risk :D

Don't worry there is no other options left apart from it and its 99% safe. ;)
[Blade General] matt4321:
Can confirm this works, I've done it loads of times!

Can i flash this recovery img using recovery manager apk
[Blade General] rocker86:
I didnt try with that...but I will strongly recommend the steps given in the OP because I have self tested the same on my device...
[Blade General] ramubhat:
hi, r u still online?

Do u have fast boot drivers for idea blade?

Do i need fastboot to flash recovery?
[Blade General] rocker86:
In some cases fastboot won't work.. try to use ADB its very easy to push the files with the steps given in OP by matt4321
[Blade General] ramubhat:
Hi Shiv

Thank You,

The recovery img worked.I flashed it using 'recovery manager.apk'

Don't need adb to flash, works fine with recovery manager. Thank you again.

after install recovery manager 0.37, when launch it got FC processus com.podtwo.recoverymanager
[Blade General] rocker86:
If you have used Z4root v2 (modded one) than it will aquire root in your cell. However if you are not sure then you can download the application "root check basic" from playstore to check whether you are rooted or not.
[Blade General] lohtse:
hmmmm does the issue mentioned in first post occur after sometime as I have the mentioned recovery flashed already on my Blade and so far never had an issue!!

Now what would be good is a touch version of the recovery being available for the Blade!
[Blade General] rocker86:
Does your blade is a chinese variant? However this problem is not arising with every chinese blades. Ya touch recovery will be the best to see..But dont know it will work perfectly on chinese blades :(
[Blade General] lohtse:
Nope it's a UK ZTE Blade(san francisco)
[Blade General] brajesh.sharma87:
I came across this thread somedays ago to help one of my friend.

should u guys need to build a touch recovery, u can build it yourself from here.

http://builder.clockworkmod.com/

just put the stock or any other custom recovery image and build a touch recovery.

Although its written that the touch recovery works only on ICS kernel but I used it even on Froyo and GB kernel. :D

Brilliant

Since being a heavy S2 user i was never to impressed with its battery life (May have been caused by running a custom rom?) but i have a noticed a hugely significant improvement since using my S3 and it seems to handle games like a charm, Runs them extremely smooth and doesn't seem to drain the battery at all, I play NOVA:3 for hours on end and it only seems to take about 15% battery for an hour and half of playing, which I think is pretty good
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] zodiaxe66:
Battery is brilliant on heavy games and multi tasking.after 3-5 cycles on charge, the battery and quad core really makes the phone fly with minimum drain.
