[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mahdial:
I have followed your steps on ubuntu except the 4th one I skipped it because I didn't understand it (can you explain it? and what is cd?)

when I checked dmesg log this appeared:

/dev/sda10

Then I wrote "sudo if=mmcblk0p4.img of=/dev/sda4" and that's appeared:

It didn't ask for password. After restarting the phone nothing changed.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pandamaluko:
cd = change directory :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
It did not do anything. I made a mistake in my tutorial, write in "sudo dd if=mmcblk0p4.img of=/dev/sda4"

CD stands for change directory. By default if you open Terminal it is at ~ also known as /home/<username>. Save the mmcblk0p4.img there, if you don't want to mess with it.

You also got the device (/dev/sda) wrong, check for the latest entries, in your log it is /dev/sdc.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mahdial:
Amazing!!!!!

Its really worked man. Blefish you're genius my phone is not bricked anymore now and its working fine.

So i have a question now which rom do you advise me to flash without bricking the phone? and thank you so much.

a few weeks after i rooted it the boot loader did not show on start up. i needed to flash my back up as the ear piece stopped working i know this to be 1 of the many bugs i had. the boot loader would not open wen i done power + volume up or down. so in busybox i seen a box called something like...boot with boot loader n i ticked it. it now a huawei logo bRiCk... dam thing. any ideas?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I'm sorry, but I don't know how U8510 boots up, how it's partition is laid out etc. So I can't really help you.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] munkley:

i done a force firmware update. vol+ with power did not work. i tried holding both volumes then power. it then forced the update.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lie4ka:
Good day! I had a similar problem with the phone about the U8800 PRO, which was accidentally flashed firmware from 8860 Honor. Now when you turn on a green screen with a blue and red rectangles, and then the next ... "Image signature verify fail!"

Pink screen comes on when the volume buttons + chucking off, but the computer does not detect it as a removable drive. Tried to connect to a computer running Linux, but it also does not "see" the phone. On one of the computers to notice that the phone is now defined as the U8860, in at least the drivers are installed for this model. Tell me what you can do in this situation is the "home" environment?

P.S. Please use the official English language, because I'm from Russia and do not know much English, so I will use an electronic translator. Thank you!

I am facing same problem

I am facing same problem but my phone also not identified on linux. My phone is huawei c8815
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] android_paul:
Try it this way : 1. Make sure there is no dload-directory on the sd-card 2. Switch on device while pressing volume+ and volume - simultanious - this should bring your device in "pink screen" maintaining mode. 3. Connect device via USB with a Linux machine - it should be recognized as a blockdevice (/dev/sdc or /dev/sdd or some other "sdX", where X represents the next free index character. Call for more instructions when you at this point.

Huawei G520-0000 bricked

Recently I flashed Huawei G520-0000 using CWM recovery with custom ROM I’ve got it from the internet after too many failure times trying to install official firmwares from Huawei support area (it starts unpack in the step 1 then after a while says failure, I tried many firmwares UPDATE.APP, but it was the same thing, so ended me up using custom ROM), after finish flashing the phone with this custom ROM ended up with starting the phone with green background and blue, red squares in center of the screen.

Now the phone stuck at this case and doesn’t continue booting up only frozen and if I rolled the battery out for 5 seconds then put it back and hold volume up and down in the same time the phone goes to the purple screen if there is SD card (dload, UPDATE.APP is located on the SD), it shows progress and the progress stuck at 35%

Any suggestion will be strongly appreciated
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bori1030:
ok so i just got my GSIII and downloaded cpu gauge and cpu spy

cpu gauge shows my max cores being 1.026 each I thought this is a 1.5 dual core it should show max at 1.512.... also cpu spy shows NO activity past the 1.026 mark..

phone is fully stock i have not done anything to it yet my question is, Is the phone defective and i need to return to att?? thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] americasteam:
Have you turned on power saving mode? Not sure, but that may cause it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bori1030:
no and im at 90% batt im think the phone is borked and i havent even started the magic yet...lol

ok im stupid power saver was on..lol now it cranked to 1.512 :) thanks bro
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] americasteam:
Awesome. Glad you got it worked out!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] JayRolla:
Yea power mode, horrible feature, barely saves battery and slows phone down. Your phones cpu throttles when it needs to use its power so it saves power that way. Im on JB AOKP and with it overclocked too 1.9ghz and throttling too 197mhz I get awesome battery life. Im sitting at 35 hours on battery with 7% left with moderate use. Thats incredible!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] raheelanwar89:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DudeWatsThat:
The camera is great and yea it does have burst feature.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] azian_advanced:
i use the power-saving feature a lot... i get paranoid when the battery gets below 30% and i know lithium ion batteries should never be fully discharged. the phone functions surprisingly smooth at even 1000 mhz and the decrease in speed barely even unnoticeable unless you're heavily multitasking. i also have SetCPU to underclock my peak speeds even lower for certain apps, or during various charging states, or different times of the day (evenings, weekends, work hours), and overclock for more resource-intensive apps (browser, skype, games, etc.).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Pellel2:
try undervolting your cpu as well to have the best gain in battery life. ppl often forget the voltage part of CPU especially if you are going to overclock this puppy

So apparently HTC broke Multitasking on Sense 4.

Lets say your watching a youtube video. Press pause, hit home and then go into your messaging app. Now hit the multitasking button and then try to go back to your youtube video.

But heres the problem.

IT REFRESHES!

WHY!?!?!

thats not how multitasking is supposed to work...

how can we get this fixed?

my tmo sgs2 never did this to me.
[HTC One S] WCCobra:
The only fix is to not use sense.
[HTC One S] invasion2:
There are many threads and posts on this issue. There's a script somewhere that fixes it...
[HTC One S] PC Jona:
could you help me find that?

it should be built in to every rom

thats such an inconvenience
[HTC One S] WCCobra:
There is a script that improves it... I would hesitate to say fixed
[HTC One S] PC Jona:
please link me =[ im searching and i cant find anything...
[HTC One S] Hunt3r.j2:
For youtube it always does this.

The issue in terms of multitasking is really just a lack of RAM. I know that the One XL got an update where they managed to get another 100 mb of RAM out of it to improve multitasking, but who knows...
[HTC One S] PC Jona:
i hate that youtube refreshes. that should be one of the main things that it DOESNT do.

why would u pause a video and do something else, then go back to the video just to have it refresh and loose my place.

idiots at htc im telling you.

and it doesnt make sense that its a lack of ram. my sgs2 had the same amount of ram and didnt do this crap.

BS

[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
It's not broken. And its not a bug. It's how it was made..
[HTC One S] mannequin:
yes it's how it was made (scripts don't work, needs to be fixed on kernel level) and i can't wait till we get a proper "fix" for it.
[HTC One S] Hunt3r.j2:
Youtube always dumps the stream cache when you leave the app, is this supposed to be new?

The GS2 has something like 200 more megs of RAM to use compared to the One S, which might as well be the difference between multitasking that works and one that doesn't at all.

So far the only phone that doesn't have multitasking issues that launched with ICS is the US variant Galaxy S3.
[HTC One S] PC Jona:
my sgs2 on cm9 never dumped the cache when i left the app.

so thats new to me.

dont remember it happening to me on other phones either (sensation, epic4g, evo)
[HTC One S] xxquicksh0txx:
Because HTC made it this way.... It's not a bug or anything. It's meant to be this way. Doesn't mean anyone likes it, but then again, it doesn't really bother me.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
That's all fine and good, but they should not be allowed to advertise 1gB of RAM if you can only keep one program in memory at a time.
[HTC One S] Hunt3r.j2:
I just tried it on a Desire HD. I went from a youtube video, to messaging. When I got back to youtube, it dumped the cache and had to buffer the video for a while before it started again. Is that what you're experiencing?
[HTC One S] WCCobra:
On my One S, when I leave the YouTube app the video pauses. When I go back into the YouTube app, it starts replaying from where it left off. It does take a second or two for it to prepare the video for playback, but overall it is pretty seamless. Compare that to my laptop where the YouTube video replays instantly (at least the sound does) but the video is all choppy for several seconds until it catches up.
[HTC One S] KACE321:
One of the main new developments of android ICS was the improved multitasking functionality, and manufacturers have poorly understood the concept. To have more fluid multitasking your priority lies on increasing RAM over having a fancier quad-core processor! Something well shown by the HTC one S with is S4 dual-core that is able run apps very smoothly, rivalling the One X, but cant run many of them.
[HTC One S] PC Jona:
hm so i should have gotten the s3 then lol.

but after feeling how this phone is and just the quality and how nice htc sense is idk if i can go back.

they just need to give the next phone 2gbs of ram!
[HTC One S] Rodsky11:
If you install a stock ics or jb rom you won't have this issue. I didn't mind Sense on this phone but the multitasking is brutal. I can't take it... The recent apps implementation is brutal and more time consuming than just going back to the home screen and app drawer. Never mind that it won't cache apps properly..

All the talk of stream lining Sense 4.0 is a joke. A sense rom is almost half a gig, I stock rom is a third of that, come on!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tho San Thanh Pho:
Hi, I have a HTC HD2 with Windows Phone 7 Tango. I was wondering if there was anyway of modding the ICS to work without a data connection. I need this for on-the-go when I don't have a data connection and want to share files with two computers quickly over a homegroup. Is this possible?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
You should be able to use Homegroup (which is just an easy form of authentication for standard Windows Networking) over an Ad-Hoc Wifi network; I did so many times before Homegroup. You can also download one of the several tools that lets you use a Win7 computer's WiFi as an access point. Although that's typically for connection sharing and not for WLAN file access, it probably works for that.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Derek0228:
A friend of mine just bought a GSIII (BNIB) because her Note's screen broke. She's been using it but doesn't get used to the screen, says that after the Note everything seems small. Since I have a Note, she offered to trade. I am seriously considering it, first and mostly because of how developer unfriendly the Note is. Suuree we have great ROMS and kernels, but that nasty EMMC bug is just nasty. Second reason is the awesome camera on the GS3. Third reason is the quad Exynos. Fourth reason, Jellybean<3 (i know we have CM10, but things would be much better with an official JB build around). But, are those things enough to sway me from the Note's gorgeous, humongous display, and the not-so-gimmicky-as-everyone-thinks S-Pen? What do you think?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] katamari201:
If you really like your friend and she is desperate, sure why not. If you are talking purely on how it will benefit you, I wouldn't recommend it. I dunno how ROM crazy you are, but I see plenty of ROM development and you can get around the eMMC issue easily once you know how (just from what I've read). The camera on the GS3 is not "awesome" in comparison to the note. Most reviews state that the GS2/Note and the GS3 have almost identical cameras. It takes faster pictures, but that's about it. Even the BSI and bigger aperture don't improve night shots that drastically. Ditto for video. In fact, the GS2/Note has better audio capture, since it does not cut out lower frequencies. The GS3 has awful audio capture.

There's not a big difference between dual and quad core, and probably won't be for years to come. Same was true for PCs. Even now my quad-core setup isn't much better than my old Athlon x2. It takes a lot of effort to code for two cores, much less four. Once you get dual-core, which is mainly for smoothness while multitasking and going through the UI and doesn't affect individual app performance drastically since most apps are still single-core and splitting up the processes effectively is a monumental task, any extra cores have diminishing returns. Have you seen a comparison of The Gnex on a slowpoke 1.2ghz OMAP dual-core vs the GS3, both running JellyBean? There's a comparison on the pocketnow site. Jelly Bean will turn your dual-core into a quad-core, or in the case of the Tegra 3 One X running ICS, even faster than a quad-core. The speed of individual cores is more important than the number of cores if you are talking purely just speed when running apps.

If you were worried about the note not getting official JB, there's evidence that all the high end current samsung Androids are all getting JB eventually. Yeah too lazy to go link the posts on gsmarena/phonearena.

Other things to consider, is how cheap feeling the GS3 is compared to the note (if that bothers you), and of course like you said the stylus and giant screen size.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] THUDUK:
Swap with her, then sell the g3, as you will get a lot more for it than the note, then either save the money and put towards a note 2, or buy another note plus some cash in your pocket. The s3 is just another smartphone the note is something else
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nnick:
I would wait for the note 2, especially with the rumors going on that it will be announced on the 15th of April.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zkyevolved:
Actually that's some good advice. I used to renew my contract with my phone company years ago for the best phone they'd give me for little (usually an iCrap), sell it, and just buy another phone or continue using the phone I had (I change phones frequently lol).

I'd personally take a look at both phones. the S3 form factor and size is actually something I'd like, but then again, I'd totally miss the size of the screen and the spen. I don't know about battery life and I don't know about the feel in the hand, I don't think it's cheap though. I like Samsung devices. I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Honestly, I'd probably get the S3 or the Note 2. Ask her if she can hold out on it for another few weeks because the Note 2 will be announced and you can see. I'm personally debating:

If the Note 2 comes out with more than a gig of ram and a better camera, then I'll go for the Note 2 ONLY if they don't make the size ANY BIGGER (dimension wise), it's already huge.

If the note 2 comes out with the same specs as the SGS3, with a pen and slightly higher resolution screen than the SGS3, then I'd probably get the S3. I've had the Note since December,and while I love it, I want to change devices soon! hehe.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RyanNL:
That's wise advice: A financially sound decision which will actually earn you money. As soon as the Note2 hits the shops you will have to work hard to off-load your N1. Also, your friend is probably not a tech obsessed person so the advanced specs won't doe much for her: she just wants a Note

On another note (pun intended) If you're a tech nerd, the opportunity to try the Samsung flagship out for a couple of weeks should be a nice incentive.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] blud7:
I love my note, and yeah I'd only trade it for the Galaxy Note 2. But (if you're talking cheap) Samsung does feel cheap compared to HTC and (gasp) Motorola. I've owned these and difference in feel is certainly there. The OneX is so much sexier and well tougher feeling than the S3. Even the Desire HD with the plastic backing is quite sturdy.
