[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
It seems to be that some people are having problems with flashing other fonts (source). ALWAYS do a nandroid backup before doing any of these types of modifications to your phone in the future, it's the fastest way to fix broken things. Also make sure that the fonts you are trying to install have been working with our phones and the newest versions of Android and/or Sense.

Here are some things you can do that might fix your bootloop. In descending order try these:

If you have a current Nandroid backup, restore it. It will get your phone working 100% with the least amount of data loss and won't require you to set it all up again.

Re-flash the same ROM you have (if it's stock, it can also be found in the Android Dev section of the forum). This will likely fix the problem. Especially if it's a font issue.

Hope it doesn't come to this but run the RUU that matches your system. This will completely set your phone back to day 1. You'll have to reroot, etc.

Best of luck. And remember to do nandroids often! :good:

THANK YOU GUYS!!!! i was about to give up

i did what you guys told me to do, download a different rom install it on my sdcard and flash it in recovery. AGAIN thank you guys so much, ya'll just made my day. MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
Anytime you can access recovery you are fine
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
Your getting stuck there because of some of the fonts you checked dont change and **** up the phone for whatever reason happens to me all the time when i try to find out which fonts are safe to change just wipe system andcaches and install back up your good if you want a list of the fonts i found to be safe i can post that once i check it on my fone

Tux approves of my EVO
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] measel:
Is it possible to make automatic Nandroid backups on the Defy?

I'd like to schedule a backup (maybe soon incrementally with v6) every week or so...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeonardoJegigzem:
I think so, write a Android app which calls the nandroid_backup function(https://github.com/tpruvot/android_bootable_recovery/blob/cyanogen/nandroid.c), and you can schedule it using a tasker or write it yourself, just an idea, perhaps is a more easy way to do that, just brainstorming,

good luck!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duolos:
I followed all the instructions I could find for setting up DTA2SD on my EVO. I'm running SOS-N (latest version) that claims to include support built-in.

However, when running 'a2sd check' from the terminal, it claims I have an ext4 partition and that it's not supported. When I partitioned my SD card, I formatted it as ext3.

What gives?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Duolos:
I tried reinstalling the rom with the stock HTC kernel as well. Still when running a2sd, it gives the error that my partition isn't supported. I was able to get a2sd working just fine in an ICS rom with these partitions, though, and I know it's formatted as ext2.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
Here i am!

Again!

I am glad to introduce you my last application called WALLPAPERIZE.

Wallpaperize is now stable but i want to add features in future, actually it does a very simple thing: it sets wallpaper for you.

Where is the news?

Let me explain...

I am not used to keep scrolling wallpaper, i hate it, so i have ever wanted to set an image as wallpaper but usual methods relay on cropping wallpaper for horizontal and vertical scrolling.

I do not need that, i need an app that brings an image and put it as wallpaper, nocrop no frill.

Wizardii is doing that but i can not understand the odd interface and also the bizzar behavior, so here it is WALLPAPERIZE.

Actually Wallpaperize has some limitations (that i will implement very soon):

- only landscape wllpaper

- can not tile in case of that image is smaller then screen dimensions

Wallpaperize comes in two flavors:

WALLPAPERIZEFREE - Free

WALLPAPERIZE- Paid version (IF YOU LIKE IT PLEASE THINK TO DONATE, IT WILL SUPPORT MY EFFORT E IT WILL ALLOW ME TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP)

Both versions have and will have the same fucntionality.

This is my first paid application after UPD8R and SWAT, I hope that someone will help me with this latest project in order to continue to develop also FREE applications.

P.S.: it would be very polite that someone of you left some comment here or on play store, please...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] aprafulio:
Doesn't work for me, wallpaper only covers half screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
Ok i see...

which device do you have? TF101? Could you post that image?

10x
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] aprafulio:
Yes, TF101 with ARHD 3.4.2. I tried with several images, from 1280x800 to 1920x1200, and always got the same result.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] flydev:
i can confirm this behavior on my TF101 with JB and a 1920x1080 wallpaper

also, let me say you made a great app
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
i am testing... odd...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
Here is working... take a look at the attachment.

Which home manager? (go launcher, stock, ADW...)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] flydev:
I'm using APEX.

Tested with stock launcher and same result.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] aprafulio:
Stock launcher
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
Do you have other application to manage wallpaper like wizardii or something else?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] aprafulio:
Not in this Rom, but i used Gallery and Quickpick to set the wallpaper.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] AzureusPT:
Seems I got same result as the other users. Wallpaper is displaced towards the top of the screen, leaving the bottom black (without image). I'm on 4.0.3/4 with stock launcher.

Any clue why is the app behaving like this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DroidRevenge:
That is more odd then previews posts... currently i have no clue and no idea why wallpaper is not displayed correctly.

In theory chosen image is rezized to screen size (1280x768, visible area) and then plotted inside a black (in your case) rectangle with virtual desktop dimension size (1500x1280, if i am not wrong).

Virtual desktop is what you see if you keep scrolling wallpaper mode.

Above dimensions are not hard-coded but requested to the system, so i can't explain that effect.

Could i send you a test version trying to log what happens?

[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Hi,

My original Sensation started dieing (backlight issues I think). I successfully returned it to standard with S-ON prior to returning it to Vodafone.

Today the replacement turned up, so S-OFF is the first step ;)) So a few checks first and......

Anyway, "adb devices" seems not to be able to see the new phone.

i) USB Debugging enabled on the phone;

ii) PC sees it perfectly as a storage device;

iii) "adb devices" sees my Desire perfectly;

iv) Yesterday on the same PC I installed RUU on the old Sensation, then reset CID then finally changed it back to S-ON, the final two rely on adb/fastboot connectivity.

So with the above in mind I believe ADB is installed correctly on the PC.

Anyone have any thoughts what I've missed (screwed up) or why the replacement Sensation is invisible to the PC via ADB ?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Might be worth trying to re-install the HTC DRIVERS

:)
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Thanks,

I'd already started downloading the latest version of HTC Sync for its drivers.

Weird though how the old one worked fine and this is invisible.

I'll update if it works.

EDIT: Meant to add that I noticed the Desire was recognised in Hardware/Devices, however, the Sensation wasn't.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
How about fastboot?

Did you try fastboot devices

With phone connected to pc from bootloader? (phone should read fastboot usb after this)

Sent from my pyramid.. Through blazing fast sonic waves
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Turns out the replacement phone was goosed before I had a chance to screw it up myself ;)

Never appeared in Hardware/Devices properly, HTC Sync didn't work, Vodafone asked me to install latest OTA. Then I discovered WiFi was also screwed, the WiFi icon never turned up in the notification bar...

So, Replacement for the Replacement is on its way.

Thanks folks.
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Replacement , replacement phone turned up today and it worked perfectly first time with both ADB and WiFi.

The only slight down side is that it's running 3.32.161.11 so HBOOT 1.27.0000. The first replacement was 1.17.0006 (so easy revolutionary S-OFF). 1.27.0000 seems a little more hassle and looks like I need to go via http://htcdev.com/bootloader to start with, I'd hoped to avoid that. At least this phone is working properly.

Thanks for the suggestions folks, all my issues came down to a broken replacement phone :(

Colin

P.S.

Talk about consistency, the first replacement turned up with no back and an 8GB uSD card. The latest one came with a back and no uSD card ;)
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
you can use my soff guide ( link in my signature ) and avoid htc-dev unlock ..but remember wire trick my way is bit difficult
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
Thanks,

I found a coltrolbear/JuopunutBear guide, so all sorted now: S-OFF, rooted, custom recovery and SuperCID. The only issue was the timing with the paper clip, it took a few attempts. Still a lot more hassle than just using revolutionary.io....

Just need to have a look around now at the latest ROMs. I see there is a Jelly Bean one floating around.

[Galaxy S III General] gibbo82:
Hi guys, just wondering wether is worth upgrading to a s3 from a iPhone 4s?.

Getting bored of the 4s now and fancy a change and something new. I've had androids in the past, Xperia, htc xl etc... Still yet to try out a Samsung phone.

So what you reckon?..

Regards, Gibbo.
[Galaxy S III General] omeryounos:
I have both. Believe me it's much better than iPhone 4s. But try a demo in some shop to see if you like it
[Galaxy S III General] Oomahey:
I believe S3 is better than even iPhone 5. And that's not even released. :p

Jokes apart, having used both phones, what I liked about 4S was the outrageously smooth UI. But Jelly Bean is going to address that anyway. No other features in iOS are going to compare to the features in Android. What this boils down to now is hardware and S3 hardware is hands down the better.
[Galaxy S III General] watsa:
Since you are asking this in SIII forum, I am guessing you have already made up your mind. Just want people to convince you more? :angel:
[Galaxy S III General] gibbo82:
Thanx for the comments so far guys :)

My mind is mixed up at the minute, wether to go for it or not!. Whats the battery & picture quality like compared to the 4s?

Battery any good in standby?
[Galaxy S III General] victorator:
Battery lasts for 4 days if you just talk from time to time. Or you will get around 5 hours screen time with decent brightness in 1 day.

Just get the S3 already, you won't regret it!

Sell that junk you're using now to some teenage blond, that's who these phones are made for : )
[Galaxy S III General] ethanfel:
Battery is

overall far better

on the S3.

Just default web browsing is better on the 4S, but if you use the reverse rendering (who make white black and black white) the battery life on web brosing far exceed the 4s.

Android, from my point of view put iOs to shame :) apps integration is far better (you can really share with android not just to email and twitter), google now est faaar better than siri, no comparaison. And well, Android is not a boring Os :)
[Galaxy S III General] Aimara:
if you are from android before then you good to go , if purely ios user then stay at ios cause so most hardcore ios user are ignorant , always asking stupid question they buy a android platform and keep asking why android cant work like ios :laugh:
[Galaxy S III General] aydc:
No, Apple is soon going to make sure Android is banned all over the world. Don't get on a sinking ship. :) :) :)
[Galaxy S III General] ASHLEY117:
crapple vs Android

android banned! wont happen as its against the consumer rights act in the uk and our monopolies commission will see crapple's tactic as an underhand method in control of the market so will NOT allow it in any way shape or form.
[Galaxy S III General] copponex:
Sure as hell it is, especially after cm10 has started rolling out, jelly bean is pure awesome even though it's still in alpha :P
[Galaxy S III General] gibbo82:
What's this about I hear the graphics being to cartoonish on the s3?. What's the screen like in direct sunlight?
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
Well seeing as the only 4s feature I see advertised is siri then I would say definitely s voice struggles to understand me but I am always dubious about voice recognition.

And the s3 has more features than just voice recognition which from what I can see the 4s doesn't.

And don't fuel Apple's monopolizing of the entire computer and phone industry, morals ate more important than features.
[Galaxy S III General] Arsaw:
Simple answer : if you stay with 4s, you stuck in year 2006. Upgrade to S3 and you are in 2012 July 24th. Your choice. :D
[Galaxy S III General] intruda119:
The original galaxy is a upgrade from the 4s
[Galaxy S III General] P_Jazzy:
I upgraded from a 3GS (didn't find the features compelling enough to go to 4, 4S camera was very tempting). I must say the S3 is amazing. You have to get used to it as using an iPhone dumbed me down a bit and the Android OS is a bit more complex.

However the apps I used on the iPhone are all here so that a bonus. In addition the battery can be removed so I can now have double the battery life if I wanted :) Overall the screen is real nice and speed of the device is amazing. I would recommend this 100%. However make sure you are happy with the size as it is quite large :D
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
the galaxy s 3 is gonna compete with the iphone 5 or 6 or whatever they gonna call it. 4s is old news so theres your answer.
[Galaxy S III General] Surfy89:
I've been using android for 2 years now and 6 months ago i decided to try 4S, mainly because it was fast stable and had a great camera. After 2 months I got bored of it, could not take the limitations of the OS (even when Jailbroken) and decided to get the S3. I was a bit sceptic in the beginning but now I think Galaxy S3 is a great phone, better camera, better os, superb screen, sd card slot and excellent battery life are things to consider as well.

[Galaxy S III General] irish-sid:
Your answered your own question.. "is it with the UPGRADE?"
[Galaxy S III General] :
Being a galaxy note owner, im an outsider on this matter, but couldn't resist my 2 cents.

before android i was on the iphone4, loved the build quality and the glassy feel. hated typing on it, hated the lack of customisation options and utility applications, even while jailbroken.

now take a look at an s3, or even the samsung range as a whole, they wont win no prizes in appearance in my opinion, nor do they have that nice glassy feel, infact at first they feel quite plastic fantastic.. however..

it goes like STINK, especially with the rom and kernel options the xda community have on offer. overclocking a quad core will knock your socks off. the screen is bigger, brighter and clearer. theres plenty of useful utility apps that apple wouldnt ever let you have. not mentioning the fact you can just plug it into any computer you want to manage your files, rather than installing itunes everywhere.

if you want the good looking, in fasion and capable smartphone. wait for the iphone5.

if you want the superior hardware, Beautiful, large HD display, flexible and stable operating system and tinkering options a plenty, get your s3, its gonna be one of the fastest handsets for a good while, i assure you.

Posted from a Galaxy Note - CleaNote 3.0 & Notecore v7 Extreme.
[Galaxy S III General] yatezy:
I upgraded from a 3GS mainly because the only things that my iphone couldnt run were from Cydia (had siri on it so Apples own upgrades it could handle) and Androids customisation is far more suited to me

The phone itself is fantastic. Ive bluetoothed pictures and videos for the first time in 2 years! Even pinched an album or 2 from my friends computer without needing to sync it. Apple seems to make the process harder, Android keeps it a lot more simple.
[Galaxy S III General] NIK516:
If you are OK with the build quality of the s3 and gave played around with it then sure move to an s3. But its not that much of an upgrade, you get a larger screen and an open source marketplace and customizable os with external storage options.

But if your bored of apple the s3 is the best device out or at least on pare with the apple.
[Galaxy S III General] ATRIXXIRTA:
Almost Every android device made in the last 18months will eat an iPhone for breakfast. The iPhone is like a kid whose mom is over protective and wrapped her child up in foam rubber. Sure, he can't hurt himself, but he can't do even half the things the other kids can do.

Yes it's worth it but I suggest you want until end of September once the iPhone 5 is announced. Just wait. No rush.

[Galaxy S III General] ad_ek:
seriously. im not into this fanboy crap. i believe in value for money.

i have both the 2 iphone 4(me and GF) and 4s(sold the 4 and got 4s). i sold the iphone 4 to buy an S2. and that alone, was the best decision i have ever done. the 4s was for my gf. after playing around with the s2, learning the features and learning aboout android. i knew i can never go back to ios ever again.

1.No more itunes bullsh@#. freaking errors, photos/music getting wiped. no more unable to restore error3149. no more unable to update cause some stupid host file is an issue. no more having to desperately wait for someone to come out with a jailbreak so that i can customize MY own phone which i paid with MY own money. 32gb worth of space is nothing when it cant be used as an USB on the go.

2.Battery life was ridiculous.

3.Screen compared to an S2 looked like a midget.

4.the iphone 4 suffered a power IC failure on its 13month. and cant pass the apple logo.to get the power IC fixed, mainboard needed to be sent to freaking china for repairs. the phone was so well taken care off. barely had a scratch on it, never came close to any contact with water. Where else my other iphone 4, did come in contact with some water during light rain when it was in my pants pocket, and it was not soaked. when i took the phone out, it seemed dry. BUT. suddenly my top speaker and front camera wasnt working.

5.in my office, 90% of the people were using i4, and i have seen at least 15-20 of them crack their screens. many have then switched to S2 and S3. and have yet to see even 1 cracked screen.

6. freaking 4s was such a waste of money, thank god it took great photos. cause if it didnt i would haev hung my self for making such a stupid decision to get the phone. but after using the S2, i realized how awesome galaxy is, i sold it, gave my gf the s2, and got my self the s3.

Samsung wasnt perfect but it was better than iphone anytime.

1.my s2, had to send for warranty due to bad reception and signal. within 5 hours, i got the phone back with full bar most of the time, and excellent data connection.

2. need to do lots of reading (which i enjoy) but others might not, to unlock the great potential of the phone.

3.for some of those with no interest in modding/customizing/rooting/roms etc, could be pretty difficult for them to play with this phone, but this phone still performs great even in stock, but there could be with some issues like camera bugs and random reboots, so need to always keep an eye out for software updates.

all in all guys, im in love with android and the S2 and S3. seriously dont wanna upgrade or get another phone from here on, well at least for another year or 2, as the features are perfect for me.
[Galaxy S III General] androb0t:
loved iphone before coz they were better....but it bored me already....it s just iphone with same OS, they are good...dont flame me...

but i have to say android is getting better and better...Samsung GS III is one of the exceptional....you have to awaken its RAW power :)

that s why we are all here ... i think :)

jailbreaking iphone is making worse and laggy....that s the opposite u r doing to android phones :)
