[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jbg25:
So I am not new to Android nor to rooting (rooted my droid1, thunderbolt, rezound and now my gs3).

And I get the basic premiss of what we are doing with using kexec to boot from recovery; which I think is brilliant, and wish it was something I could set up permanently on my phone. Although, I am not at all comfortable today with the process, or the ramifications I am seeing occur to the brave who are already going head first into cm9/10.

Last, I am a self confessed flashaholic, and will definitely want to try cm10 once stable and the install/restore process is perfected... But I use several apps that re- register the phone every time... Then lock me out after several new devices, and make it a PIA to fix.

And at least for now boot manager pro does not work. So my question is would it be possible to install a ROM to the Internal SD, and be able to truly dual boot the phone between the stock rooted O/S and the flavor of the day?

Sorry for the long story... LOL :D

Thanks

Suggest you a phone...

Go sim only until you can decide what you actually want from the device.

No point someone else saying buy this as I could say buy a Nokia as I like the hardware and it does what I want it to.

Go to some phone shops and have a play with some of the devices and don't let the sales rep push you into buying a phone just cause it's there.

Once you have played with the phone you like the look feel of. Go home. research it on the internet. are there any problems? Chances are someone has done a youtube review of it and will give you the pros and cons. At the moment I'm trying to find a device that meets the following criteria

If nokia bring out a device before android that meets this then I'll be going over to Windows OS.

1080 p video recording

Wifi N

hdmi out

Dual Mics

olded display

small footprint Not Samsung galaxy 3s

NFC

BT 4.0

4g

Micro SD expansion slot

12mp camera or greater.

S2 1.2Ghz Dual Core

Skyrocket 1.5Ghz Dual Core

So looks like skyrocket wins... BUT.... people sais S2 proccesor its better than skyrocket... because of manufacturer and stuff... i dont know about that

but there is a diference in screen... S2 its 4.3" Skyrocket 4.5"

I'm on a skyrocket right now and the development is awesome as well as the community.

On another note, the galaxy s2 is better than the skyrocket. This coming from personal experience. Only advantage of the skyrocket is LTE. GS2 is a lot smoother and faster. There's a reason why the skyrocket chip is clocked at 1.5 compared to the 1.2.

Edit: Btw I have beats audio on my skyrocket right now. It does make a difference, just not with the phones speaker.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaudreyt:
This morning I came down to find my Nexus 7 dead... No response from screen, and I was unable to get it into recovery mode.. I have recently unrooted and relocked the device, flashing it with the JRN84D factory image from the google website and then upgrading to the latest firmware OTA.

I thought the battery may be dead, but it's been on charge for two hours and I am still unable to boot. I decided to plug it in, and lo and behold, I get a response! By virtue of Naked Drivers, my computer now recognises a seemingly dead device as an Asus Transformer Prime in APX mode... No ADB or fastboot response...

What can I do from here? I am reluctant to return it because I am leaving for vacation soon and won't be in the country to accept the order..

Any help would be appreciated..

BTW this is my first android device I have rooted, to I'm fairly new to this..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaudreyt:
Bump.... Anyone?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GaryMick:
I think that it's just frozen. You need to simulate pulling the battery out, try a long hold on the power button and see does that fix it for you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Mine is in APX mode too. I was using it last night, rebooted it, and nothing. Screen is dead. It is a 16gb model from Staples and all of them are out of stock to replace it.

Any solution?

APX mode is used for NVFlash. I'm tinkering with NVFlash trying to somehow push stock software or something but I keep getting unknown device error. The device doesn't do anything at all. But if I hold Volume Up and while on a PC, it will ding and install the APX driver... but at this point I am completely lost.

This happened with my LG G2x once and I found a script that repartitioned, reformatted, and flashed over a stock image. I haven't seen any mention of NVFlash with the N7 though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] housry23:
Unplug it from your computer and press and hold the power button for 10-20 seconds. Then release it and try to turn the tablet back on. It may or may not work. If not plug it into your computer and see if it went back to apx mode. If so, unplug from the computer again and try holding the power button until it turns off again and try booting into the bootloader by pressing volume up, volume down and power all at the same time. If you can get to bootloader, you can either flash back to stock using fastboot or try getting into recovery. If none of this works, call Google and tell them what happened and what it does when you plug it in to your computer and maybe they'll know how to fix it or will replace it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Yea this is not the same case here. I've bootlooped my N7 before and your method would typically work.

But not this time. The screen doesn't even come on. There is no indication the tablet is on or off except the little ding on the PC when it comes up as APX mode.

So ADB and Fastboot commands are not an option. I already tried that. NVFlash is the only thing close to talking to the tablet and its saying unknown device.

I bought this at staples so I guess my only option is to return it. They don't have 16gb models and it doesn't look like they are getting any for weeks.

I can pick up a 8gb model but I don't want to be stuck with that.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaudreyt:
I've tried everything...

I've tried everything, but short of NVflash - which I am reluctant to attempt - nothing works.. Seeing as at the time my device decided to go into APX mode my bootloader was locked and I was running stock ROM, I had no choice but to return it to Google, which is surprisingly difficult to do if you live in the UK...

For some reason Google decided to switch to TNT for us brits, and the customer support agent on the phone was particularly clueless as to how you go about returning an item if you are at the disadvantage of not actually living in the states... After many phone calls and much persuasion, I managed to prise out instructions on how to return an item if living in the UK...

However, a piece of information for anyone in the UK who wants to return an item: TNT do not deal with punters directly; they purely deal with businesses, the consequence of that being you as a customer CANNOT book a collection yourself. Instead you must ask Google to arrange it for you, which they will certainly not be able to, seeing as many of their frontline support agents seem not to have been briefed on this...

I ended up having to use Royal Mail...

Just a bit of info for anyone in the same predicament as me..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimFox3:
Did anyone figure out how to get out of APX mode?

My Nexus 7 was intermittently rebooting/freezing so I ran a 'StabilityTest' (CPU + GPU). Within one minute of the stress test the tablet rebooted and went straight into a blank screen. No matter what buttons, the tablet just won't boot. I plugged in the tablet to the computer, and I get the APX driver not found.

I'm past my 15 days to return the tablet to Google, and besides my tablet bootloader is unlocked. Though I never flashed any ROMS/kernels. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to proceed?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Unlocking the nexus boot loader does not void your warrant. Return it to Asus.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimFox3:
I don't know the exact steps, but i got it out of the APX mode and into the bootloader.

1. Tablet plugged into computer.

2. Held Volume Down + Volume Up + Power (simultatenously) for three seconds

3. And then released all, and pressed Power again.

4. Tablet booted into bootloader.

I thought that unlocking the bootloader ALWAYS voided the warranty, but in anycase I flashed reflashed ALL stock and locked the bootloader. Will be sending it to ASUS now. Thanks again!

EDIT:

So I wanted to verify that it was a CPU problem, and I downloaded StabilityTest again and ran the CPU load test. It crashed within two minutes, and went into AXP mode again. To get it out of AXP mode, the correct instructions:

1. Plug in the usb into computer

2. Hold Volume Down + Volume Up + Power simultaneously for like 15 seconds

3. The bootloader should show up.

4. If it doesn't, unplug the usb cable, and plug it back in and then repeat the these procedures.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3ter:
I had the same problem, and SimFox3's advice got me out of APX mode and booted. This appears in my case to be due to some kind of 'deep discharge' problem, where I let the device run down completely, to the point where it would not charge and was completely unresponsive.

After following SimFox3's "3 finger salute" trick, I got into boot, but then the device immediately shut down with 'connect charger' message before I could boot completely. After this I swapped back to the mains charger, and am now getting the charging animation, so fingers cross It will boot up fully after a couple of hours charging.

There seems to be loads of threads about the Nexus 7 and battery "deep discharge" type problems. Anyone seen any official information about this?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RFZ:
I also have a Nexus 7 (2012) in APX mode. Don't know what happened to it. It was connected to the charger and displaying a website when I left it. When I came back it was "off"... When I connected it to the PC, an "APX" device appeared.

When I press UP+DOWN+POWER for 15s it shuts off after 10s (APX device disappears) and the reboots in APX mode again ~2s afterwards. I can keep pressing the buttons for minutes, it doesn't even powercycle after that. If I release POWER and press it again, it powercycles again after 10s.

I also noticed that when in APX mode the USB plug gets pulled and connected again, the Device won't show up again (windows says that the device could not be recognized / is malfunctioning). After powercycle it is back in APX mode.

Any other ideas how to leave APX mode?

Edit: Also disconnected the internal battery for 10s ... no effect.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
You need to press power *only* for about 20 sec then it's switched off completely. After that it should start normally, i.e. by pressing the power button for about one second. If you press UP + DOWN + POWER you are entering the APX mode ...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RFZ:
Nope, doesn't work. As I said, pressing POWER for 10s powercycles the device and it comes back in APX mode 2s after that, even if I press POWER for 20s or longer.

The battery is fine and fully charged, I measured 4.12V...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Well if it always boots into APX you do not have a valid bootloader on your device ... in that case there is no chance for you to recover from that state, sorry.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RFZ:
Is there a way to, at least, verify that? Since I've read from others escaping APX mode somehow with lots of button pressing, I'm not willing to accept that the bootloader is broken for sure. Also because of the fact that the device died without doing anything to it... Sure, there is a rare chance that a bit in the flash got hit by a cosmic ray and flipped, but... yeah ;)

I once had a very simmilar issue on a Samsung tablet which only booted into bootloader. I tried for days, flashing firmware and bootloaders again and again and it always booted into the bootloader. Noone had an idea. Few days later I spotted a "disconnect" button in one of the tools for flashing the firmware. Just pressing this button without flashing anything else brought the tablet back to life. There must have been a flag set somewhere that couldn't be set by flashing or pressing buttons, but with a special command within the bootloader.... Sure, different brand, different software, different bootloader. But maybe same principle?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.crabs!:
Appreciate your optimism my friend, however, I have worked with Nexus 7's for a loooong time now and APX mode is pretty much a killer. My own experience tells me it is a hardware problem most likely related to faulty NAND chip (or similarly corrupted bootloader for whatever reason - be it self inflicted or again faulty NAND chip). I did a lot of reading around this subject initially a year or so ago and it involved the use of 'blobs' to restore the tablet using an NVIDIA tool (i forget its name, sorry, but google it). The problem with this is you need the original blob for your specific tablet (based on serial number?? not sure), and lets face it, who reads the blobs off their devices just incase? I had hoped for a universal blob which could be used, and sure there was some talk a while ago, but I stopped following the issue and wrote the boards off in APX mode. BTW, highly unlikely a key combination will save this.

Sometimes APX mode can just 'appear' as some report it because perhaps (a) an automatic update failed due to faulty battery, corrupted firmware download, etc or (b) the NAND chip just packed in (faulty manufactured hardware, moisture, etc). I have seen this happen myself during use with the tablet in my hand, with no obvious trigger. Simply faulty NAND.

Please, if you do look into the NVIDIA tool, or otherwise, and come across any way to recover from APX (short of physically resoldering a replacement NAND chip from a donor PCB), then please let me know.

Regards,

Craig
