[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatjoejr2001:
Okay so basically my Fire is rooted and currently running gedeRom latest ICS rom. It comes on to the blue kindle fire intro screen with the power button green NOT orange. It turns off by itself literally after two seconds. It won't charge via usb or the original wall plug. Let me clarify what I said last.... basically the power button doesn't light up at all when I try to charge my kindle fire. I can't access recovery or anything for that matter because it shuts off so fast when I try to turn it on. My battery did die before I can charge it, but as of right now the damn thing doesn't want to charge and I think it is fully charged at the moment regardless of whether it lit up or not. Every time my Fire is dead it shows that animation screen that tells you to charge it and not that blue intro screen. At this point I really need any assistance I can get and I am more than happy to upload a video of the fire or whatever because at this point I am absolutely clueless. The computer does not pick up on the Kindle Fire at all even when I try to turn it on and plug it in right after. Nothing happened to the device or I didn't try to install or flash anything. It simply just died from no battery left and now the damn thing is giving me more trouble than I have encountered previously. Please if anyone can help me or guide me through this I'd really appreciate it.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
Your version of FFF should help prevent that. Have you tried leaving it plugged in with the stock wall charger for a few hours?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
plug in to wall, this turns on kindle so then it goes in a power loop due to flat battery. the answer is, plug in to mains charger then hold power for over 20 seconds, this will turn off kindle but should leave it charging. next leave it overnight. ie. a good few hours

edit. the led is sometimes missleading, ignor.

Thanks guys that is exactly what I will do and I will report back if it worked or not. Once again I really do appreciate you guys taking out the time to assist me in this issue that has never happened before. At the moment I am currently working on a HTC flyer I just bought from a friend and now I have to find the HTC Scribe for cheap somewhere lol. Take care.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatjoejr2001:
Still not working...

I can't access anything (Tried so many times to get into recovery or something that I lost count at this point) because it shuts off so fast. At this point I know for certain it is not a problem with the battery not being charged, but in the same breath I know for certain that I have never had a problem like this that was so extremely problematic. At this point I have lost all hope and think it is messed up even though it was working beautifully on Gederom's ICS rom before it fully died. I charged it for the whole night and now it won't show a charge light when I plug it in to the original KF wall charger or it won't link up or charge with my PC. It also won't turn on when I have it plugged in to the OEM wall charger and it doesn't light up when plugged in to charge. I do have an actual video of me with the device showing exactly what happens when I try to turn on. Just go to my youtube channel under the name fatjoejr2001 and watch the latest video I posted. If anyone can please help me get on track I would really really appreciate it and would be extremely grateful. Thanks

power it off and charge it via usb with your computer it will take some time so set your computer to not sleep while you charge
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
from whst you sre describing it acting like your battery is flat. (i know you say you used the stock charger) sorry to ask, but are you sure, does it say 1.8A on it?

can you use your charger on another phone etc (to test it).

the only other thing i can think of is your bootloader is screwed ie fff.

can you catch fastboot in the time its on?

type fastboot getvar in a terminal from where ever you have fastboot installed on your pc

it should say "waiting for device".

then switch on kindle. does it do anything in your terminal?

if its not the battery
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatjoejr2001:
...

Yes I am a 110% sure I am using the right charger and I cannot access recovery since it shuts down so fast. It doesn't show up on my PC when connected via USB and it won't turn on when either plugged in to wall charger or to my computer. I can't use Kindle Fire Utility or any such methods when the device will not function while connected to my Windows 7 desktop. I am just completely oblivious to what is going on because I have a htc flyer and Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and nothing like this has ever happened where I can't recover some how. What can I do at this point? From what I am hearing people think it may be the bootloader, but how do I go about fixing this when I can't even access anything on the Kindle fire????
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatjoejr2001:
...

I've tried and to no success. I charged it again last night and am currently charging it again with my PC, but I know for sure that isn't going to work and that is not what is causing this issue. My device was working fine till the battery fully drained and died. Now it is just non-functional. Maybe I didn't have the proper TRWP installed for ICS or the right bootloader?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovejoy777:
ok if its dead you should try the fire kit

but it involves making a ubuntu flashdrive and booting with a script on the root of the flash drive, then taking off the back cover and shorting a pin out instide whilst inserting the usb cable. it sounds scary but its not too bad if you follow the instructions exactly.

(no shortcuts). :-)

i will dig out the thread for you.

just take your tme and follow it.

if you need any help let me know where abouts you are in the process and what is going wrong.

this will work as it doesn't even need the battery connected.

it resets your partitions, reinstalls twrp &reinstalls fff.

hope this helps

So I been flashing a few roms lately...TW based...every now and then I get a message of SD card damaged....I ignore it and reboot which usually skips the issue, but does anyone know what prompts this? Happened on the venum/super galaxy/mijjaz/blu kuban and I have no idea why.

I don't know what directly causes it but I found this link:

I hope it helps. You may just have to back up all your data on the SD card and reformat it and put the data back on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Thanks for searching that....the weird thing is the SD card isn't really damaged and the error goes away after a reboot. Never pops up again no matter how long I keep my phone on or the ROM installed. Maybe its an ICS glitch on our devices?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Maybe?

I don't know if its a glitch or not. I'm not running ICS. Thinking about jumping to CM9 but kinda scared atm. lol but I couldn't find anything else on the SD card notification. Sorry I couldn't help more

Bricked + Stcuk at download screen

Hello guys,

So i created a really messy situation for me. I flashed a lot of ics rom's and was not happy with any of them so was trying to odin back to gb stock rom and flash my old gb custom rom but the odin on pc got stuck at "Getting pit details " and phone was at 1/10 the progress bar..it stuck there for abt 10mins and i decided it's not going anywhere and stuck so i pulled the cable and the phone was hard-bricked. it was not responding to anything. Surprisingly enough in morning i was able to get into download mode but now when i try to flash from odin it get's stuck at "Setup connection" and just stays there. Any Ideas ?

Edit: The phone gets detected in windows and drivers get installed but adb says unknown. or device not found for any commands that i try :(

Edit #2 :Flashed a Md5 i had and the phone booted into recovery giving all sorts of error E:/data not found and sorts. Not sure what i can do ahead. The odin all in one package get stuck at Setting pit file :(

Good deal.

Some Captivates do not like the One Clicks, but will accept the flashing of the Firmware through the regular Odin.

I found that installing this on a phone will instead display the Gingerbread launcher.

Download here: accidentally deleted the file. Will reupload later.

You should be able to install it normally. If not, copy the APK to /system/app/ and give it permissions rw- r-- r--. Then reboot.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] keijiacer91:
Hello. Well I just rooted my 16 gig Nook Tablet. THe instructions said to write the img onto a micro sd card of at least 2 gigs. Problem is, the instructions didn't mention that after flashing(or burning or whatever it's called) the img file onto the microsd card that it would lose space :crying:. My 32gig card now only says about 2 gigs. I was wondering if anyone can help me undo this? Sorry if its been asked already. Couldnt really think of a way of searching this problem without a lengthy paragraph. Thanks in advance for any help. And please, please help.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
Basically the card takes the size of the burned image. The nook color dudes actually have images of different sizes (2gb, 4gb, 8gb, 16gb, 32gb) that allow you to burn the proper image size to the proper sized card and keep the extra space.

What you need to do now is either expand the card (this will allow you to access the rest of the card while keeping the burned image on there as well) or simply reformat it, which will result in the card being restored to its full size. There are guides around for both methods but basically search for either "expand sd card or format sd card."

The key part is, your card is not permanently small, so don't worry.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hajotking:
The partitions on the SD card cannot be changed under Windows, however, there is a nice Linux tool available (GPartet), which can be used to expand the card to its original size.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lenardo:
in windows you can repartition easily, you need to use this

http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

and just either expand the initial partiion or make another partition with the rest of the space

Busybox provide you some basic LINUX command line, because most stock Android doesn't have that. Terminal Emulator used for emulate a terminal for executing command line.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] ericpd:
Hey gadget,... that one bottom corner with all the unsupported silicon. Does is seems as though it would go flappy and loose it's grip on the phone's corner over time? That's one of the problems I had with the Evo 3D Commuter case. Very little outer shell support for the silicon on the top and bottom and over time the silicon just lost it's shape and went flappy. Got so bad, you could actually see daylight between the phone and the silicon at just the right angle. The sides were fine with good support from the Polycarb outer shell there. What's you take,... seems like a future concern or no?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gadget069:
That is my concern too. Still too new to know if this will be a problem. The one thing that was a problem is the USB cover, it fit too loosely. It kept popping out, I finally cut it off.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jabberwockyyy:
Thanks for the review. The colour options look sweet. Am really tempted to get this to replace my drab looking black commuter. Although judging from the pictures, the commuter still looks like it offers greater outer shell support.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Oli2k:
Both the Commuter and Aegis have advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion the Aegis is the better case but I can see why people would prefer the Commuter.

I doubt the rubber on the one corner would go loose over time but until i've used the Aegis for a good while I can't comment any further.

It's meant to be tight, it's not that hard to put on you just have to work the rubber into the outer case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] karimsaud21:
How does the aegis's protection compare to the otter box commuter and defender?

Can they all survive a good size fall?

I've got the commuter at the moment but

I really dislike the material the outer shell is made of, too slippery.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ericpd:
If you don't mind the styling of the Aegis it's a solid Go! Protection is about the same with a very slight edge to the Commuter. But the Aegis gets the nod when it comes to being user friendly,... buttons easier and more responsive, Home button easier to get at than on the Commuter. My opinion!

I ended up passing on both and went with the Otterbox Defender. Outstanding protection, not nearly as bulky as I thought and heard it would be, a built in screen protector that offers way more protection than any stick-on protector and it's also responsive-n-clear, and because it's not an exoskeleton, there's no slip-n-slide drama.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] darksandz93:
I've tried countless times and it takes about 15 minutes of taking off the hard shell and readjusting the rubber part to get the volume up and power button from sticking. It's really damn annoying. This is the same for mine and my brothers case. I think the hard shell is too tight so when it catches on the rubber part, it stretches it down too far, making the volume buttons stick. I really like the case but i'm considering returning it because this is too much of a hassle if i want to change out a battery real quick. Anyone have a specific way to put the thing on without this issue?

Edit: I was gonna link a video review on this case where the reviewer had a hard time putting on the case and did it off camera and turns out its the OP, LOL. Love your videos btw Oli

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Andrew_han:
I've been using this case for about a week and I love it! I'd pick this over the commuter any day, only downsides I've found are the usb flap on the bottom doesnt close tight like the headphone flap, and its a pain to put this case on the phone, but once its on its great:)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Oli2k:
Glad you agree with me :)
