Firstly, a big thanks to everyone on here that has posted their own set, or links to, wallpapers and live wallpapers for the SGS3, much appreciated.

Has anyone noticed a lack of 1280x720 size good, clear wallpapers for our phone?

Maybe I am looking in the wrong place?

I have tried Zedge. Wallbase. some HD wallpaper apps. Even tried google image search with resolution set to 1280 x 720.

What do you think?

Hi,

I have a problem with my Asus TF 201.

I was trying to flash the Jelly Bean 4.1.1 CM 10 on my Asus TF210.

I have the device rooted and i used the goomanager to flash the rom...

Install OpenRecoveryScript. It downloads TWRP-2.2.0-tf201.blob and I get "Recovery has been installed!" Trying to boot into recovery (manually - Goo Manager -> Reboot Recovery does nothing) I get the Android belly up with the red triangle with exclamation point in the middle. Also, when I tried to install CM10 from Goo Manager, I got a similar message, but then it just sat there.

i'm not sure where i'm doing wrong that it's not entering recovery mode.

i used the rom manager to flash the CWM 5.8.3.4....

appreciate someone can help me..

TQ

TWRP v2.2.2.0 Problem using internal storage (sdcard0)

I seem to experience the following problem. After succesfully downoading a cm10 nightly using the latest goo manager, I reboot into recovery. But instead of automatically updating, I get stuck in "Please type your password". After clicking the Cancel button I can not see the downloaded cm10 zip file anywere. However I am able to flash successfully from my external sdcard, which is great by the way!... What should I do to correct my obviously internal sdcard problem?
[General Questions and Answers] nickzl69:
Dear All,

I have 2 big problems with my TF201.

First - It cannot enter the recovery mode neither from ADB via the command:

adb reboot recovery

nor via the "hold volume down and power for 3 seconds, let go of power only, then press volume up when prompted on screen"

The result that I get every time is Android lying down with a red asterisk.

Second – ADB recognizes the TF201 correctly but I cannot say the same for FASTBOOT.

When I execute the command:

adb devices

I get the following result:

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

C2OKAS026360 device

But when I try FASTBOOT as follows:

fastboot devices

or

fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase cache

for example, I get:

< waiting for device >

And that is forever.

Please, help me figure out what is wrong with my TF201.

Thank you in advance.

Anyone mind telling me what the settings were?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AmericanCon:
Something like 135, 135, 215 contrast 24. Could be wrong this is from memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] strumcat:
Contrast -24

CAB on, Spice melange on

All gammas 0

Red and Green color multipliers 135

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HTC HD2 MAN:
Thanks to both of you. :good: :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SahilC:
Hey guys, I just flashed Trinity, and I really didn't like the colors.

The blues are too dark..actually, everything is dark.

I kinda like the whites though.

How can I get it close to stock colors? And where are those settings? thanks! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] strumcat:
To get stock colors on Trinity kernel, use Trickster app or Trinity Kernel Toolkit to change contrast and all gammas to 0, and all color multipliers to 200. You have to turn off spice melange first.

That functionality might have been ripped off from the rom you are using.

You could try widget locker from the play store. I don't know if it has any password options tho, never used it.

Also, try searching "lockscreen" in the market.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
Hello, as I said in the title, I have a problem with the recovery menu (Same with OR) - problem is I can boot in recovery (the screen with the triangle) but there can not go to the menu. I press Volume Up + camera and nothing happens. Remains the same screen with the triangle and phone.

Please give me a solution because my phone is moving very slowly with Android 2.2.x

Device - Motorola a853 Milestone

Bootloader - 90.78

Button on the camera work, as well as the volume.

What could be the problem?

Sorry for bad English ..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
Come on guys, 26 views and no response to my question?

I searched all forums and tried all the solutions posted there, but none worked! But those were old solutions ...

No one knows who could be my problem?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] nagabushan.c:
Not sure what kind of problem you are facing. You can surely try this.

Looks like OR is not loading in ur case. You can download the latest OR, I'm using minimod OR, copy the update.zip file into the root of SD card, again reboot into recovery. If u find ur milestone stuck in triangle button try pressing volume up button. This time it should invoke the OR or it should ask u to update the zip file.

Still if it doesnt works i think u have to take advice from experts who can help u to use ADB comnands to troubleshoot further. Anyways best of luck.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] extrem0:
like the last post, you should verify if you have OpenRecovery folder and update.zip file in your /sdcard.

You can try via adb or terminal emulation "reboot recovery"
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
I tried what you said nagabushan.c, but it does not work ... Always the same problem, no menu displays..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] nagabushan.c:
At least do u get exclamatory mark when u booted or milestone while pressing camera button ? Then give a sec gap and then press volume up button.

Any device both rooted or non rooted should display this.

Try ADB steps..

Let us know what u observe
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
I see an exclamation mark only when you press power + x (bootloader 90.78).

Have you verified OpenRecovery folder and its update.zip on sdcard? Try to re-download and unpack it fresh new.

What rom you said you currently have?

Have you installed vulnerable recovery?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
Have you verified OpenRecovery folder and its update.zip on sdcard? Try to re-download and unpack it fresh new.

I tried, does not work ...

What rom you said you currently have?

Stock rom 2.2.x.

Have you installed vulnerable recovery?

Of course, just as there's no difference ... the menu does not show.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mrvek:
The menu should show. Any menu. Either from stock or OpenRecovery. I would try with a different sdcard because the older kernel (2.6.29) in recovery does not support some cards well. If the buttons are working and you have installed everything correctly then it should work. I'd try with different sdcard.

Alternatively, you can try to tell recovery to apply update.zip from sdcard automatically

echo "--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip" > /cache/recovery/command

but note that I am not sure if you need to be rooted for that. I assume not. You can either install Terminal emulator from PlayStore or enable usb debbuging in settings and try to connect through adb if you choose to try.

To see if adb detects your device

adb devices

if all is OK you should get some output (aphanumeric) and after that 16 characters, it should display in what mode is your device (device for a normally booted system, recovery for device in recovery...)

And then

adb shell
echo "--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip" > /cache/recovery/command
reboot

I'm no expert but it might be an unsupported sdcard...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
I created the folder "recovery" inside "cache" with root explorer.

Now cmd shows me: ( check attachments )
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mrvek:
are you missing "echo"?

echo "--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip" > /cache/recovery/command

it simply writes what is in the first argument (in quotes) to file named "command" located in /cache/recovery

Edit: you can ommit adb devices. You just test the first time when you connect to be sure if adb detects your device. After that it should generally give "device not found" or something like that if connection to device is lost.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
I do not understand ...

The command "echo" - update_package = sdcard: update.zip "> / cache / recovery / command" should create a file called "command" in the folder "recovery" from the "cache"?

If so, there is no file called "command"

Sorry, I'm newbie ... I do not want to stress you out.

Edit : Hmm ...

Instead of reboot, like you said, I typed "reboot recovery" then restated the phone ... and the loading bar appears. The phone has rebooted when it came to approx. 30% ..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mrvek:
Yes, it should create that file with that content, to instruct recovery to automatically apply update.zip.

You can try to create that file manually with the

--update_package=SDCARD:update.zip

content in it.

Could you post the content of

mount

executed in adb? i was sure you can write to cache, it should be mounted read-write.

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

hm...

could you please execute in adb:

ls -laR /sdcard/OpenRecovery /sdcard/*.zip

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
Okay, it looks like it was done!

You've explained it very well ... but I did not openrecovery and update.zip in sdcard.

I thank you so much for helping me! Thanks a lot!!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] mrvek:
That leads us back to the very begining of the process...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] es7ar:
Yes, it's true - but I was sure I put openrecovery on sd card, but it was only recovery folder and update.zip not open recovery 3.3.

thank you again because you had patience with me.

I have the same problem with milestone A853.

I fowlow your steps and get errors: the phone has rebooted when it came to approx. 30%

when I execute in adb:

then get errors:

-laR /sdcard/OpenRecovery /sdcard/*.zip: No such file or directory

Anyone help me?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Erovia:
Maybe a block on your sdcard corrupted (it's perfectly normal) and some parts of the OpenRecovery can't be read.

Try deleting the old OpenRecovery folder and update.zip and copy a new one on your sdcard.

If it doesn't work, reformat your sdcard with THIS tool and copy the OR to your sdcard.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] trucpv:
Thanks Erovia,

I tried but not solved. I think I have to see the command "ls -laR"

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnAkEs1210:
I also have this problem, my phone has been looked after very well, never been dropped, has a nice soft rubber case and is always kept in my pocket by itself, no keys, wallet, anything, so there's no chance of it ever being scratched yet even though I have taken every precaution to keep it in perfect condition, I noticed a tiny little mark on the screen, I cleaned the screen with my sun glasses microfibre cloth but could still see this mark, after feeling the screen I noticed there was actually an edge to the mark, it was as if the screen had some sort of coating and that had blistered off, is the best way to describe it. God knows how or what caused it, like I have said I really look after my phone, I still have a sgs1 in perfect condition. It's a bit annoying that this has happened but I am more worried that more of this coating will peel off over time. I was just wondering how your phone is now or if you managed to send it back at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
Hi all,

Yesterday evening I received my galaxy nexus. As it was yakjuxw I flashed it immediately to yakju JB. It works butterly smooth (apart from some apps that haven't been optimized *ahem* xda *ahem*. Anyway, as the night fell and my room turned dark I began to notice that my top half screen had LOTS of black splotches. I runned a screen test and at the total black page I could see the splotches clearly. Furthermore whenever I do something that makes the speaker make sound(video,music) I hear a static beeplike noise on the background. It is even there when I turn down the sound completely. But when I stop the video, the noise disappears. Are these problems normal or should I return the phone as DOA?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Moursy93:

I was having some issues with CWM recovery so installed the latest version (5.8.4.7) and now I no longer have the option when choosing a zip to install of choosing one from the external sd. The nandroid location has also been moved to the internal memory rather than the external.

Is there any way to set the nandroid location, or get it to use the external sd? And is there any way to flash from the external sd? Is there a different recovery version I should be using?

If your a Mac user you could also download a Linux live CD and run heimdall off that environment. Once you have the phone rooted you can just use mobile Odin from then on in.

Yep, just Odin/heimdall I'm afraid.

Would love if it had fastboot, its so convenient if you are stuck, one thing I miss from the gnex.

But to be fair, Odin and mobile Odin do a bang up job so we're not too badly off! :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
I must admit Odin and mobile Odin are extremely good (I use both) and Chainfire is the man when it comes to this stuff! :)

I miss fastboot a lot, though, as it was so darn convenient when I had my Gnex. One thing that was a pain in the backside though, were the drivers. They did work for a long time for me while other times they wouldn't work at all :p
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Yup, I agree, chainfire is a legend, mobile Odin is the sh*t, it doesn't increase the flash counter so its all good, regular Odin then for emergencies! :D

Ya those drivers were a pain in the behind alright, I found a good guide somewhere online at the time and got them to work first time but like you say I remember seeing some people trying everything and still not being able to get them to work, I dread the day I get a new laptop and have to set all that crap up again! :/

Two things I miss with the Gnex running Jellybean:

1. The incredible smoothness.

2. No lag when waking the device up, which seems to haunt all other Samsung non-Google devices.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
In some custom kernels you can disable deep sleep (IDLE+LPA) which will make the device wake up instantly.

However, just as with the GNEX and other instant-waking-up phones this means that the standby battery drain is significantly higher

than when the CPU actually completely goes to sleep.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Well I don't remember having ****ty battery on the Gnex. It was decent enough, and I usually always charge my phone every night.

Can you please link a kernel that either has IDLE+LPA disabled or allow disabling it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Siyah kernel for sure, probably more too.

I'd rather leave it on, its basically deep idle like we had on nexus s.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Id rather suffer some extra battery to have my phone start up immediately. It was fine on my Gnex, wo I'll bet it'll be fine here too. :)
