Hello

First, i just want to thank all the people who's great threads i read (the beginners guide and the unbricking stickies were great) and I have searched the forum but I do not see an answer to the question I have.

I tried to install the KF utility drivers. When i did, my kindle stopped working and is now stuck at the Kindle Fire logo screen. I can not turn it off and unplugging it from the USB/PC does nothing.

At the same time, my PC stopped recognizing my KF. When i plug it into my PC by the USB, i get an Unknown Device with a small ! in the device manager window.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

(FYI, i am kind of a tech noobie, so please make any advice/directions as easy/dumbed down as you can :D )

first of you need to decompile the apk with dependencies as framework-res.app and

twframeworkres.apk....most of the pngs in systemui is dependant on twframework...decompile and see it for yourself
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] lordsolrac2:
Both?

The .jar or the -res.apk? I decompiled framework-res.apk too and did some more artwork changes. Same error xP So Both Files?

[General Questions and Answers] Joseph Lavering:
I have successfully rooted my Verizon Nexus version 4.04 build IMM76K and tried to flash two different ROM’s one is "Vicious-TORO-JellyBean-V3-signed" and the other is "Team Liquid Vicious-Toro V3-JellyBean Fully 100% Functional Deodex". On both it seemed to install fine, no error messages. Then at reboot it booted past the Google logo to the ROM logo and never passed it. I waited for a minimum of 20 minutes until I pulled the Battery and flashed back to stock. Please help.
[General Questions and Answers] andezzat:
Did flashing back to stock solve the problem, is your device ok?

Before you flash a custom ROM, always try wiping the cache and wiping the dalvich cache. You then wipe data and do a factory reset. After that you THEN install the ROM, that might've caused the problem. Maybe, I am not sure.

Which clockworkmod did you use to try flashing the ROMs, please give us more detail!
[General Questions and Answers] Joseph Lavering:
I actually did exactly as you said. Wiped, factory reset, wipe cache and then dalvich. Pushed the ROM to the phone and then installed it.I have been useing Gnex Toolkit v1.7
[General Questions and Answers] andezzat:
And did it work or what?

Wiping user data/Factory reset is important after installing the Custom ROM.

There is a good way to fix all this, make sure you backup EVERYTHING, and when I say EVERYTHING I mean EVERYTHING (Photos, Videos, EVERYTHING).

USE FASTBOOT, I have mentioned this heaps of times, I have because it just WORKS. I bricked my device before, and I just used fastboot. Understand 2 things if you're going to use it...

1. It DELETES EVERYTHING

2. You need to have your STOCK ROM in fastboot format

If you're willing to use fastboot and have the proper stock files here's how to do it (From Nexus S post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445635):

I QUOTE: "Put all six fastboot images in one folder, unlock your bootloader, perform the fastboot flashes, then lock the bootloader:

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot oem lock

"

Cheers ;)

Oh by the way I am not sure if the oem lock and unlock bit applies to you, check a relative guide to Galaxy Nexus please :D, this was an example :)

P.s-im a noob to these forums if i have offended anyone or done something wrong plz lemme know
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] john_tillman:
I saw so much he said, she said about battery life on various threads here. So, I decided to conduct my own tests and measure results. I modeled this test after my typical usage i.e. visit various sites and read news/blogs etc. So, no video/music etc was used.

TEST:

- Load 9 sites one after another. On each site, open 10 links. Wait for the page load to finish loading and hit back to go to home page then load another link. So, a total of 90 different webpages.

- Repeat this test on LTE, HSPA+ and WiFi.

- I tests from same location i.e. from Sheldon's seating location (any fans of the big bang theory?)

- LTE had 2 bars with 10 mbps, HSPA+ had 4 bars with 4 mbps and Full wifi rated at 22 mbps.

- All site were bookmarked and I made sure I open the same link for each test by conducting them immediately after the other.

- Browser used: ICS+. Cleared cache, history and cookies before each run.

- Restarted phone before each run to make sure it is loaded with all apps that bootloader would load.

- Device/ROM - I used rooted stock ROM with extensive debloating/desensing.

- Measured battery usage using 'Badass Battery Plus'

- Screen brightness: 35%

RESULTS:

LTE: 14 mins to load all links and used 6% battery (63% battery used by screen)

HSPA+: 19 mins to load all links and used 8% battery (67% battery used by screen)

WiFi: 12 mins to load all links and used 3% battery (53% battery used by screen)

My Takeaway from results:

- LTE doesn't really drain battery much faster but it accomplishes tasks much faster than HSPA+ thus less screen time is used - saving the battery.

- WiFi is the best performer. It is by far the most efficient of all three.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] regP:
Nice. Makes complete since that while LTE uses more power thats offset by less time spent downloading. I've only had my phone for 3 days but I have not noticed my battery draining any faster than it did on my Galaxy S 2 or G2x. In fact battery life seems better and my usage habbits have been the same on all 3 devices.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
I think I've figured out what is causing the most drain. I believe it's the heat. When my phone is in the 80's to the low 90's it's ok but when it hits 98 and above the battery drains fast.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] john_tillman:
Heat is indeed the enemy of battery life in both short and long term.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iUseHtcOneX:
I agree
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MorpheousMarty:
Yes, heat represents battery energy usage. There are no mechanical parts using energy, and the radios radiate minimal EM energy. The vast majority of the power used in a device is in resistance of the transistors on the chip, and amplifiers of signals, both of which turn the vast majority of the energy used into heat.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmsatguy:
I've had a Verizon tablet pretty much since the day they released and have enjoyed all the bells and whistles that the custom roms have offered here on XDA (currently on EOS Nightly 101 for 4G version).

So, my wife's birthday rolled around, she wanted one, I got a great deal on eBay for the MZ602 (Verizon 4G version). Did my homework, made sure it was clear to activate on Verizon account if I chose to do so (everything was perfect). The moment I got it, I unlocked it, rooted it, and flashed an EOS nightly (I flashed the 4g version even tho I didn't have the SIM card - runs perfect, no problems at all). Anyway, we left if as a wifi only version (didn't add it to my Verizon account) for awhile but, of course, this can be limiting when you travel a lot, camp, etc... So, I contacted Verizon, added it to my account, and they shipped out the 4G SIM card 2 day FedEx. I now have the SIM card in my possession for her rooted, Team EOS nightly running MZ602 Xoom.

My question is this...do I need to return her Xoom back to factory stock before inserting the SIM card so it will activate on the Verizon network or can I just pop it in as is running on the rooted Xoom?

Thanks for any help ahead of time...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jnc8651:
You just need to pop the sim card in and reboot it if the tablet is on when you do that. And also turn off airplane mode if its on and it will get connect and you will be good to go.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runhopskipjump:
To add to what he or she said, no you don't need to return your xoom back to stock. Just pop the sim card in and reboot. Just make sure that airplane mode is off and mobile data on. You can also choose between 4g\3g or just 3g but I don't know if that really saves any juice while on the go. 4g seem to have better reception in building and through walls, Sao I just leave it on the default 4g\3g option.

You can also use your similar from a 4g phone like the HTC thunderbolt. I do it often when my phone battery is dead or when tethering via Bluetooth/wifi isn't working properly. I have unlimited data on my phone so i just use that.

Xoom 4G + Team EOS ICS nightlies = WIN

Hi does anybody reading this have the similar issue? If so do you know the solution or how to fix this issue?

1. Adobe Flash. A small little issue I've been also having that Adobe flash on my Android gives me issues, when I play a video on the browser it usually takes a couple of seconds for the video to show, sometimes it doesn't so I have to reload the page

2. Ever since I've flashed and rooted my device, on the screen I've been getting a little bit of this wavy thing at the bottom of my screen, almost as if it's loosing power down at the bottom of the screen....If that makes sense.

If you know a solution or is facing this problem, please let me know. Or post the solution?

It'll be a great big help! Thanks and thanks for your time! Much appreciate! :)
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
my opinion is:

the flash player, it playing streaming software player flash.....it may lag just a little but its not that big a deal is it really?

the wavy lines, i would say look into of a its a defective tab and if you have receipt take it back for a replacement
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
i wouldnt say defective tab, have had mine for a year, and after flashing over to tabonney's ICS i get an odd flicker too, as for flash, its trying to render what computers play, with just much less hardware resources to use. Its slow and thats the way its going to be.
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
My video issues aren't like yours Mkami... But if I might suggest making a full backup, then reflash your rom. Maybe you'll get lucky and the issue will go away.

You know, I've been waiting on someone to mention the odd flicker. Does your tab do it when either, a 3d game or app is running, or maybe on a home screen that has an email widget? And does the tablet seem to still be reacting normally to touch input other than the fact that the screen doesn't show any change? I am thinking about sending my tab in over this for warranty work. I got mine over a year ago too. Sure am glad I paid with plastic, got an extra year warranty for doing it. I just wonder what they are gonna say about the bent corner where it hit the pavement...
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
oh flickering? i think thats a ics problem as most of the ics based roms have the flickering plus stock,. but the guy said he had wavy lines at the bottom of the screen. never heard of that before.

You know, that's kind of what I've been thinking. I've been testing by going back and forth between bootloaders. So far that is the best explaination. I'll likely go back to stock again soon. But it seems like I remember it doing it at least once on the stock bl...
[Acer Iconia A500] sRDennyCrane:
When I first updated to ICS, all was well. Within a couple weeks, Flash video got laggy, the browsers got laggy, and I got the occasional screen flickers. I backed everything up and did a hard reset and it's been great ever since.

I haven't heard a really good explanation for all this, but a good theory is leftover files remaining on the system, or possibly file fragments, are interfering with the OS. A hard reset purges the old crap out... regardless of the explanation, it's known to fix these problems.
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
Awesome, glad that you were able to get to normal. It didn't help me tho... I might start a different thread for this if it keeps up. I don't want to hijack Mkami's thread with a different problem. Thank you for the help.
[Acer Iconia A500] Mkami:
Hey everyone thanks for the advices and different problems you guys are facing.

Sorry for my poor explanation... When I mean screen "wave" what I really meant is screen flicker :o

I found a semi cure for this...Though I don't know about other peoples tablets, all I did was raise the brightness of the screen and the flicker seemed to not show, I must say though that flicker doesn't really much bother me as it does with the flash, but I guess I have to live with it, just a heads up, my tab isn't defective. Truthfully when I do go to stock ROM everything on the device including the flicker goes away, it's only when I flash my device that I notice that, but I am pretty sure there might be a solution for that one or another, because a buddy of mine has the same tablet, which is why I got that a500. I love it and I love android way much more than any other.

Anyways, I hope Flexreaper releases a new rom soon, really am excited with anticipation. Can't wait to see what he has in store for us.

I am going to try that hard reset and fully restoring the device after a nandroid backup and test and reflash and check if anything works with a good

result I shall post up the steps and how to fix this little issue.

I thank you all! Please post if anybody else has this issue or solution down! Much appreciated! Thanks! :laugh:
