Xyboard 8.2 issues

First of all thank you for posting these.

I am working on a Xyboard 8.2

I am running into an issue with flashing some of the boot files such as mbmloader, mbm, bootlader, motoboot. The rest of them seem to work however these ones do not. When doing the flastboot on click method it states "no such file or directory" however I can plainly see that they are there and the other files wok. However when I do it manually with fast boot the rest work except these ones and it states that the "Command is restricted". The device is locked and I think this may be part of the issue. I think the device was originally and Demo device and I am just trying to get the stock system instead of the Demo version it is running. Any advice besides scrap it?

Thank you for your time.

May be out of context, but, not that many threads to choose from.. :) Can anyone tell me if the boot animation is the same for the XYBoard 8.2 and 10.1, not owning a XYB 8.2, haven't seen the 8.2 animation, I love the 10.1 animation, have it on my XT1080M Droid Maxx's..I have a small collection of the Motorola Droid animations, and if the 8.2 differs, then I'd like to add to my collection, and where may I obtain a download.?

I used the fastboot files provided here to Unbrick my Xoom2/Xyboard and it worked, then I did a stupid thing and ungraded to Jelly Bean and it has substantially slowed down my tablet. I tried running this again and I keep booting into Jelly Been and not honeycomb. If I try to run recovery on my device I get an android with red exclamation over him. Any help/suggestions?

HOW do you pull fastboot files?

How do you get your hands on this official fastboot files? Is it possible to get fastbootfiles for jellybean update? If so would you please post them as well? Thank you.:good:

Help Motorola Verizon MZ617-16

Help Motorola Verizon MZ617-16

My Grandfather (97 yrs old) has this 10.1 android tablet motorola verizon branded, we were told its a xoom2 sticker on back says MZ617-16

I suspect it took an update and stopped working, I have the original charger and it charges and I can do a factory reset and it goes back to not working as soon as done... It has never been hacked or rooted...

We would like to reset it and motorola wanted $150 to reflash supposedly we cant afford that.

I wanted to reflash the bios? downloaded the fast boot files here and got into fast boot mode...

My windows 7 pc sees the tablet connect, and I set the table to:

fastboot flash mode the screen says device is locked battery ok and ok to program.... it says connect usb data cable, Im using a generic usb cable for programming, we have the factory charger ...

I made a directory on the desktop of win7 called fzastboot copied all the files there and ran the bat file...

What am I missing, someone please help...

Thank you

George

The fastboot files here simply say waiting for device
[Xoom General] runandhide05:
Waiting for device means your PC is not seeing the tablet while in fastboot mode. You may need to install the drivers for your Motorola device first

[Xoom General] csmoore88:
Run and hide is correct. You will need the Motorola device manager and all drivers installed on PC first. Google is your friend here. Also remember to reboot the PC after driver installation. If you have adb setup on the PC it will be a bit easier. You can use simple commands to make sure the serial is pulling to PC and that it is recognized. Hope this helps.
[Xoom General] digger73:
It worked! I installed the device drivers and did the fast boot and grandfathers tablet is fixed and in the mail back to him, thanks you all!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] deecampp:
I got a new white T-Mobile GS3 last night, to replace a blue one i had that was having bluetooth problems. Once I rooted the new one I restored a nandroid I had made before returning the first one. For several hours the phone worked just fine, until it froze up, leaving my only choice to pull the battery. When I started it up again, it just looped from the Samsung logo to the Galaxy S III logo. I tried to restore the nandroid again, but it said something about incorrect MD5 sums. When that didn't work I tried flashing back to stock through ODIN. It says everything passes, but when it reboots it just continues to loop through the two screens.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] teh roxxorz:
I would recommend you flash the stock boot and recovery > re-root. Though as a general I wouldn't flash a backup, even if from a similar device, ans things of your nature can happen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] deecampp:
I tried to flash the stock boot and recovery through ODIN, but it still wouldn't boot up. Is there a better way I can flash stock?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daijizai:
Did you try clearing all data and formatting system from recovery?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] deecampp:
Yeah. Gave that a try.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bizdady:
You shouldnt of recovered your old nandroid on a different device, maybe the data partition but not the full nandroid.

Was this theStock Odin tar you flashed?

Have you tried reflashing the stock Odin tar again?

Hi. so tried to search for info but could not find it for my phone.

I got the HTC ONE S.

I followed

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1583427

and unlocked/roted my phone.

Then i installed rom manager from market and downloaded miui from within the program and restarted the phone and the room installed itself.

But now the phone wont start...

Its just on the screen white screen that says htc.

any guess to what i should do?

Its been stuck in that screen 3 times now and about 15min each. Tried to re-flash diffrent times but with the same result :(

i tried to clear cach/dalvik and factory reset all the times but still the white screen.
[HTC One S] tivofool:
Did you make a backup? You could reload your back up and then follow the instructions on the miui op to install.
[HTC One S] linds6630:
You need to fastboot flash the boot.img. Since our phone is S-on you can't just flash a rom through rom manager.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1752270

also make sure you are doing a factory reset in recovery
[HTC One S] aasterix:
no i did not do a backup.

Never did it on my desire so dident think of doing it now.

But might it be something that i forgot to do during the flash?

Can i re-flash it during fastboot with cmd instead of clockwork?

if that would change anything....?
[HTC One S] aasterix:
thanks for the reply =)

Il try to find me a guide on how to do that!
[HTC One S] invasion2:
For future reference, development section is NOT for questions. That's what the Q&A is for. And for your problem - download a new ROM, reboot into recovery, wipe data, cache, dalvik, AND system, then flash the ROM and kernel. Use TWRP for this.
[HTC One S] kurniawan77:
Why is this in the development section????? Moving thread.

People... ask yourself when you make a new thread... do I need to make a new thread when I have a question? And most important... where do I post this?

On second thought... closing thread.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheNightHawk223:
Well I'm not sure but I would reckon you should factory reset it from the bootloader, then try again.

And also this should probably be in the Q&A section.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rszafraniec93:
I just got the international version of the SIII. I was wondering if I should return it and get the AT&T version because some people say that it is faster graphics and memory wise, and that even though it's dual core it has a newer processor architecture (A9 vs A15). I want to know which one really has the better graphics performance and per-thread performance, just overall which one is more powerful in the end. I dont care about network speeds.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
CAN YOU PLEASE USE THE DAMN SEARCH FUNCTION BEFORE POSTING?

*calms down*

It has more memory (2GB vs 1GB) but a slower graphic engine. Note that slower is a relative term; the speed differences may be neglectable in most real-world applications, but synthetic benchmarks do show them.

Yes. However none of the new features (such as Virtualization) are even used.

Note that an architecture doesn't say anything about the CPU itself since Samsung has heavily modified the ARM design.

Also note that the US-version is dualcore at ~1.5Ghz with the Exynos (international) is 4core clocked at 1.4Ghz.

The Exynos is also produced with a newer technology called High-K metal gate which allows higher clock speeds with less power consumption as compared to the old production technology used on the Dualcore version.

My best guess is that everything you'll want to do will just run fine on both versions, but the international one definitively has more horsepower.

The US-version with it's 2GB of RAM should be better for multitasking tough.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red Wolf:
I got the international version and I think I made a good decision getting the international version.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rszafraniec93:
Thanks so much. I looked around but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for there was always people saying the Snapdragon S4 was better, but i didn't know if they just meant battery/data wise or what. Thanks for the clarification though. So far I am loving my International version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rukcus:
I would first like to say I am very careful of what i download and 95% of the time I get my apps from the Play store with the 5% from XDA for example flipbook beta and custom ROMs. I don't use any bootleg apps.

Im not to sure what happened. but after looking over my phone bills I noticed that my phone had been dialing long distance numbers that I don't know at random times of the day. Turning my regular cell phone bill from $71 to as high as 177.00 !!! these high bills came in since March. I didn't notice this since I have pre-authorized billing.

These numbers I tried calling and there is no answer.

I wanted to know if an app can dial a number without any visual indicators. example the phone call icon that shows up in the notification bar. Has anyone ever experienced this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Probably a rogue app. And this is another reason not to have auto pay or pre authorized billing.

butter and jelly please...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luftrofl:
Wrong.

Go through your applications and check the permissions on all of them. One of them has permission to make calls.

Or flash a stock ROM and make note of permissions for apps you install.

Or get an iPhone. The walled garden sounds like it would benefit someone like you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phatmanxxl:
Its possible someone cloned his esn number too. Im thinking that's what happened.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Do you use Google Voice?

If you do, any number you dial, GV dials a different number (Google's numbers) to connect the call.

The 1st day I got my Sprint s3 I rooted it. The second day of having it I decided to flash a rom (the Omega rom from the i9300 forums). I THOUGHT that I was in the right spot for the Sprint S3...BOY WAS I WRONG...I flashed that rom, hit reboot and then full brick.

I mean no power, no download mode, no recovery mode, NO NOTHING! FULL BRICK!

The messed up part was that I transferred all my data from my S2 to my internal S3 memory which I could not get because the phone would not power on.

The JIG method failed, so I was left without a phone and lost data. In comes MOBILE TECHVIDEOS.COM.

Im not going to lie I was a little scared about sending my new bricked phone off to Texas but it was the only choice I had.

I sent it in Saturday and today is Friday and its back and all my data is there!

It cost me $85 but I got the fast shipping and fast processing which made the price go up but who cares, my phone is good! :good::laugh:

Was gonna post this in another thread which I found out has closed so I'm asking here cause it seems appropriate:

I've never owned a device running iOS, so please could someone explain to me what is so restrictive about Apple's products? I know you can't have widgets or download from a third party without jailbreaking (surely you can download pdf files etc. Though, right?) but what else?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapcow:
There is no technical reason for that, Steve Jobs said once that they are putting the apps under a series of test before putting them on the market to provide an higher degree of quality, honestly i see every kind of junk in the App store, even apps that plays farts.

They are just trying to offer less and make a lot of money out of it.

Do not forget, Apple does nothing on its own, does not have even 1 single factory for their hardware, even their OS are just FreeBSD porting, it's just about fashion with their products, also they can't be open because of their business strategy, think about iTunes, iTunes is based on the fact that their OS is closed, if iOS will be opensource probably the music industry will leave iTunes and iTunes itself will die.

Being closed-source also facilitate the "dream factor" and the users can't verify how a feature work and they just use it a the brand tells them.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Apples products are restrictive because they try to lock you into Apple's ecosystem, you can't install apps from anywhere other than the iTunes store (without jailbreaking), they block apps from their store if they find a "moral objection" to them (trying to force their morality on the consumer) and finally they outright ban apps from their competitors (the iOS gmail app which has become an "applet" you can access through the browser).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboyle18:
There are some APIs that you don't have access to that you would have on Android.....mainly around hardware stuff. It also takes a lot longer to get an app approved in the app store. It can be up to a week or two weeks depending on you app. Compare this to Google Play where its almost instant.

Like the previous poster said, with iOS you are tied into using apple's eco system of the app store and itunes. Its not a bad thing really if you are happy with that, but some prefer the relative freedom of Android.

I've developed for both Android and iOS and personally I havent had any issue with restrictions on iOS......it hasnt dtopped me doing anything I wanted to do on that platform.

Good luck!

you wont recive os updates and ports custom roms like android does..........

all things are complicated you need and should be done via ituunes unlike android plug in usb do what you want..........

Depends on the app itself and whether your small ram pool may cause android to kill your app.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
No. "True" multitasking requires the service to keep running in the background. What you're describing is just caching the app in the RAM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
So it depends on the apps themselves? I have 1GB RAM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
iOS restrictions are as follows:

-Only available on one phone/tablet

-Can't install apps outside of app store without jailbreak, so no betas, console emulators

-No widgets, custom launchers, custom keyboards (like Swype)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speed_bot:
in true multitasking the app shouldnt be killed and should be cached with no lag......thats true multitasking.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtalia:
Actually, iOS proprietary, and from there go restrictions.

But Android is open to all, anyone can bring in their code.
