+1 to that. Probably going to contain a bug so when you say ROOT into google it hard bricks

I think he was meaning that Google made their voice searching thing come out for iOS, when their core users are on Android. Since lots of average people don't like to mess with their electronics, they might see it as if Google is giving other people something they should have gotten first. Because on Android, you have to have Jelly, when the majority doesn't even have it yet. But on iOS, they can install an updated Google search and have the new Google search.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TEXASMADE1978:
+1 IMO they should have just updated Google Search for Android before iOS . Kind of dumb that more iOS users will have a more functional Google Search app available before Android users. I know we rooted users can install a zip to get a 99% functional Google Now but Android users shouldn't have to go that route for what is one of Google's core apps... :confused:

[HTC Inspire 4G] DJ_MiX:
I just got a Inspire that will vibrate 3 times and then stop and blank screen.

Will not enter boot loader and get detected by usb.

Is this recoverable?
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
what have u done to get in that state?
[HTC Inspire 4G] DJ_MiX:
That's the way I got it off ebay. Don't know the history but no water damage.

If I can't access bootloader or detected by computer maybe jtag will fix it? or any tools or methods to revive it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Maybe it has a messed bootloader....it get into bootloader but take about 15 to 20 minutes....try that. Pull the battery, put it back and boot in hboot (power + volume down)....and leave it for about 30 minutes....
[HTC Inspire 4G] DJ_MiX:
Tried that no luck.. Guess will need Jtaq or it hardware failure.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Try with a different battery...if that is not working, then it probably is a hardware issue...
[HTC Inspire 4G] -=PM=-:
I had a similar experience when i tried to root my phone, leave the battery out for about a week then put it in and power up to recovery. I was able to unbrick my phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fatboyRICH:
Use AAHK....

...read the "Effen Manual" carefully about 3 times then use the feature that puts everything back to stock unrooted/stock RUU. Then use AAHK again to root the device and you should be good. I almost bricked my Inspire with HTCDevUnlock, and used AAHK in this way to fix it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
If he is not able to get into fastboot he wont have a chance to get his phone back. Besides, the Hack Kit does not run from fastboot and running a device that is already S-OFF is useless.

Maybe, you should read the effen manual some more...:o
[HTC Inspire 4G] moutansos:
OK I had this problem. Take the battery out and let the phone sit for about half an hour. Then plug the phone in to a wall charger ( not the computer ) press the volume down button and press the power button until you see the HTC logo. After that keep holding the down button until it enters HBOOT. Use the vloume keys to select the reboot option and boot the phone. It worked for me. Hope it helps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] HTCinspiration:
My phone has done this twice as well. Both times taking the battery out for 30 minutes & then booting into recovery (volume down+power) fixed the problem for me
[HTC Inspire 4G] hellorenauldo:
sorry for rekindling this thread, but im trying one of you guys' solutions as I type this. my girlfriends inspire died about 2 weeks ago. she fully charged it, and ran the battery out completely. havent tried a new battery yet but that will be the next step.

anyway. I havent messed with it for about a week. all it does is vibrate 7 times. No boot, no bootloader, no usb detection, anything. Pulled battery and gonna let sit for an hour before i put the battery back in, and try the bootloader method. I called ATT about it but they wont replace the device or anything. I read online about it being hard bricked, and if thats the case, that means the phone is just an expensive paperweight right? It was completely stock, no rooting or anything. the phone just died and wouldnt turn back on at all, even sitting on the charger over night.
[Nexus 7 General] oshizzle1991:
Hey guys, got my N7 yesterday and I absolutely love it! I'm currently running Glazed JellyBean (but you don't care about that). I bought the 8gb version, knowing full and well what I would be getting into, so I synced all of my music and pictures with Google, and am looking into Google Drive for other storage options. What are some other ways that you guys have found that save you some storage? You never really know what you got till it's gone (a pun, I'm referring to a sd card lol)
[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
If it comes to it you can squeeze a bit more by moving user apps to system. Think stock has about 200mb free in the system partition.

I've got a 32gb sd card on my phone I can access with wifi file explorer while tethered
[Nexus 7 General] Destron56853:
Although not ideal for most people I have Samba Filesharing installed on my Galaxy S3 (requires root) that turns my S3's 32GB SD card in to a Samba share, and I use ES File Explorer on my tablet to access it, so with large games (like Gameloft games) I move the assets folder over to my S3's memory card when I am not going to play them, and just keep the assets for the game I want to play on my tab. Takes a minute to transfer but faster by far than downloading the assets every time I play the game. Rarely do I find myself in a situation where I don't have my phone close by, especially since I tether to my phone when Wifi is not available.

I also have a share on my Windows PC. AndSMB will allow to access your shares over 3G\4G but obviously this is only useful for small files.

For music I use Amazons MP3 cloud service. You can store 250 songs for free, or 250,000 songs for $25 a year, and songs you buy from Amazon don't count toward your limit.

For pics, docs, and other things like that I use Google Drive.
[Nexus 7 General] nerdninja:
I use Google Music to store all of my music on the cloud and Plex to serve up movies from my PC at home. Pictures are all stored on Google+.

I have pretty much everything I need on my 8gb and I still have around 4gb (of the 6gb available) free

Yeah my pics are synced with Picasa and my music w/ Google Music, I just want to play some games and unfortunately, most of the graphic intensive ones require around a gig of data :(

From what I understand, to access your computer over the internet you need to pay a subscription fee for an 'Anywhere Access' pack.

iOS users on the other hand seem to get this for free for a lifetime.

I assume you can use it on your local network?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hafai:
Edit: problem solved. Word of advice to those having an issue with their cable, it most likely is missed wired

Advice to those looking for an otg cable or an otg cable solution, don't go for the super cheap ones, their wiring matches their price.

I am attempting to get an OTG cable (two actually) that I recently purchased to work but I'm having some issues.

I tried installing the USB-OTG Diagnostic tool to help figure out the issue. My N7 currently is running the Linaro _Motley Kerenel on a stock kernel that has been rooted and deodexed.

When I plug in the first cable that I have the highest hopes for the diagnostic tool reports that the kernel, rooted api, and the android api all claim support. However, the android api reports that it does not detect a device while the rooted api and kernel both do detect a device. However, it does report that the classes have been found.

The second cable causes the diagnostic tool to report that even on the kernel level no device is detected. I'm thinking this cable is defective in comparison to the first one.

The diagnostic tool's ultimate verdict is that OS support is a yes for cable one, but a no for cable two.

EDIT: When I plug in the first cable Superuser pops up saying that it has granted StickMount permission, even if there is just a mouse or even nothing on the other side of the cable. For the second cable no such message appears and the diagnostic tool even asks me if I connected anything after it is done, in comparison to the first which it automatically knows that I had connected something.

Is there any hints as to how to get these to work, though I do understand that the second most likely is defective and cannot be made to work.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdrussell:
wiggle the connector. I bought 2 OTG cables, only to find out the USB cable that came with my N7 (which fits tight as hell) is the only usb cable i own that will reliably seat in the port on the N7.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hafai:
Wiggling the connector did not help at all. I don't think it is a connection issue as while both cables aren't as tight as the cable that comes with the N7, they do both sit firmly within the device itself.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bennor3814:
In one of the many other threads on USB-OTG cables, one or more posters have reported having to shave the plastic on the top of the end that goes into the Nexus 7 because the sloped plastic of the Nexus 7 keeps the cable from being fully inserted. The micro USB end connector isn't long enough on some cables which seems to be causing issues of either the cable not working, being loose, or working intermittently.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hafai:
Apparently he problem is far more benign than a software issue.

I ended up pulling apart cable two as it seemed defective and lo and behold it was. The sense pin (pin 4) wasn't connected to anything. After rewiring it I got it to preform better than cable one, that being it would power the device for a fraction of a second before cutting out and the diagnostic tool finally recognized it. Turned out that a short between the power pin and a data was causing the N7 to shutdown the connection. Fixing the short yielded a perfectly working cable.

I have yet to figure out what is wrong with cable one as it is of a different design and harder to test due to this.

Either way, this thread can be closed as it wasn't a software issue as originally thought. Just some really cheap cables. Let this be a lesson to me about buying those exceedingly cheap alternatives. Too good to be true.

I recently accidentally deleted my Accuweather Daemon.apk I am running Darkside v8 custom ICS. I tried to restore it by pushing it to the system/app folder and changing the permissions accordingly. However it just won't install. Even if I click it and just try to install the .Apk it just says "application not installed ". Am I missing something? Maybe a step or two? Shouldn't it be fairly straightforward since it's the. Apk that came with the Rom? :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
opening this up for anyone that may have problems installing the kernel etc.

first question, i've out all of the necessary files into the CNA.zip (Codename Android) that i want to flash, but whenever i boot into TWRP to flash it, it fails. i could've sworn i saw @FBis251 say that zips didn't need to be signed, maybe i'm misunderstanding his meaning. anyone with advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I only really provide support for AOKP as TWRP was compiled using the AOKP source code. There may be differences in the code from other roms' recoveries that make the zip installations fail. What I can recommend you try is to try flashing it via TWRP + AOKP to verify that it isn't a TWRP error.

If you continue having problems it's up to the rom devs to make other mods work with their roms. There are just too many roms for me to keep up with and I haven't had time to be doing that.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
I'm on AOKP (pay no attention to my sig) with TWRP and it's not checking signing on the zips, so I guess I don't know what the issue is

Sent from my Unicorn powered SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I'm assuming other zips flash fine? It might be a problem with the way the rom dev created the zip. Normally using 7-zip with highest compression (lvl 9) works for me in case you want to try re-zipping it yourself, assuming there aren't any other problems with the zip file.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
It's the same zip I flashed (your) AOKP from. I did rezip it, on my Mac, so I don't know if the issue might arise with how he program is rezipping the file

Sent from my Unicorn powered SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
well you might have better luck with the command line zip utility that comes with your mac.

You can extract the rom zip, then try doing this

cd /path/to/extracted_files

zip -9 -r ~/destination.zip *

that'll zip all the rom files up into a high compression zip. Try flashing after that.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
Still nothing. Hmmm, I wonder what is causing this

Sent from my Unicorn powered SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Juls: Try "Betterzip" for Mac - that's what I used to set up Slim with Thomas's LZ kernel. It allows you to modify the zip file without extracting/unzipping it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] allstar1397:
I installed the LZ kernal into the latest miui v4 rom Erik released today and when i flashed it through TWRP if flash successfully but i lost root access, so i tried flashing it through cm9 recovery because that's how i fixed the root access on gummy mutt but it didn't give me the option to fix root. Any help ?

Your only options:

- try to find a local service center that can order a cheaper part

- or even better, hit up eBay or chinese sites like dx.com and order the screen yourself, and then search for a service center or install it yourself.

It's still not cheap, but much cheaper than the official route.

Ok so this is more of a rant than anything. This fumblin phucking phone is constantly rebooting on me, shutting programs while i am using them, freezing. BATTERY dies quick, phone gets hot when in use....

The only thing I have done to it was rooted it, using that one click program, very easy process (couple months ago.)

What can I do???, has any of you did something? This phone is stock. I used to have a Galaxy S CRAPtivate and I was a flashaholic (btw that phone was sh*t compared to this one even with the freezing) but I see MOTO wont unlock the phone so i was wondering does that mean I can't change roms like I did on my old phone? I also would like to know what bootload means because i have that installed too and dont know what that is? I am sorry for being a noob! and yes i did read the N00b section lol
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Where did you find the bootload that you installed, I'd like to check that out. As far as the rebooting, have you tried a factory reset? And what size / class sdcard are you running?
[Motorola Atrix 2] cogeary:
-First, let's just calm down a little bit...

-Now, let's make sure you actually have an Atrix 2, not an Atrix 4G. What does Settings -> About Phone -> Model Number say?

-You installed "bootload?" I assume you mean "bootloader?" Where is the guide you followed to do this?

-Yes you can change ROMs with a locked bootloader, but you can't directly change modify the kernel. So it's hard to build any ROMs aside from derivative stuff (based off of stock Moto ROMs)

-What size/class microSD card do you use?

-Have you installed any apps/changed ANYTHING on your phone recently? Are you on GB 2.3.6 or 2.3.5?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Preggy:
If there is one thing I've learned since I'm back to stock waiting for the soak test to actually start is that stock sucks big time both in terms of battery life and overall stability (I've had a lot of stability issues with a lot of apps, even the stock music app(!) that I haven't experiemced in custom Roms)

I highly recommend installing a custom ROM. I've made pretty good experiences with ROMULUS (pretty much fantastic ROM) and Lithium.
