Alternative Low battery in Ap fastboot fix

Tested and confirmed to work on Verizon Motorola Droid RAZR XT912

I softbricked my Verizon Motorola DROID RAZR XT912 while testing some stuff out when it got bootloops. I hard reset it by holding the volume down and power button for thirty seconds. when it restarted it got the all black screen with white letters saying Boot Failure in Ap Fastboot mode. I could not flash the factory Rom back on it to make it operational again cause my battery was below 50% charged. So here is what I did.

I used a 600ma charger cut the end off and then cut the wire coating back exposing 3/16 of wire. With charger unplugged I attached the red to the + and the black wire to the - terminal being extremely careful not to touch anything else in there causing it to arc and possibly causing damage. I recommend that you download the

IFIXIT APP

in the market to a tablet or use their website so you can get the instructions on the removal of the back plate without breaking or cracking it. Once removed you can use the torx screwdriver to remove the negative screw. It has a washer too I just placed the wire neatly under there making sure not have any individual wire sticking out everywhere and re-tightened it. Then done the same to the positive side.

Now that you have done this you should very carefully flip it over taking extreme care as to not have the wire break or fall out. I placed mine over the edge of the table so I could inspect it before plugging it up. If all is good plug it up then hit volume up and down plus the power button at the same time. When done correctly the Boot Mode Selection Menu will show. Use volume down to scroll the list to AP Fastboot highlight it select by pressing volume up. Usually it'll go straight there cause it's bricked and in bootfailure. The RAZR will now say BATTERY OK. Run RSD Lite and install your Fastboot files with RSD5.7

Fast boot file listed below is for the verizon edition.

ICS 4.0.4

VRZ_XT912_6.7.2-180_DHD-16_M4-31_1FF.xml

After it fully installs turn device off and carefully remove everything paying close attention not to touch the cut wires to anything and also be very careful with your torx screwdriver. Then snap the back cover on and power it back on. Worked twice for me since it keeps soft bricking every time cause of Bootloader being locked.

Update, Thanks to whirleyes and the app called Bootmenu which allows you to partition some space for a second system (dual boot) i'ts located on the market. I'm able to flash without any problems now.

If you find this helpful give thanks.

because some developers have been unsuccessful while trying to port it.

However, The folks at galaxy Siii somehow managed to port their stock camera for Aosp based Roms

My phone just cracked while playing Foosball with my brother. Unlike any others, the screen was directly impacted by the Foosball stick, not from dropping damage. I'm using a Trident aegis case on mine. I'm considering buying a squretrade insurance as its the best option right now
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Swimguy14:
Does the cover actually cover the screen? I would get any insurance you can if you don't currently have any..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kulzboy:
Just the bezel but yea I'm already out of T-Mobile 14 day period so ill be buying insurance from squaretrade
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Swimguy14:
Well in that situation the case is really irrelevant; if the stick hit the screen directly it wouldn't make a difference whether there was a case on it or not.

I believe you can add insurance from tmobile up to 30 days after getting the phone but the deductible is ridiculous, like 150$ i believe. Nonsense when the phone was 99$ in the first place.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kulzboy:
Squaretrade deductible is only $99. So ill go with that
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Crisisx1:
Umm I wanna know where the hell did you get an S3 for $99 lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ChefAnt:
That's what I wanted to ask lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hucesar1017:
No you can't. You have 14 days from the date of purchase to add insurance after that you can't. Unless you file a warranty exchange. That will give you the chance to add insurance. 7.99 a month. Trust me I do this everyday at t-mobile.

Wish you would have seen my thread about a week ago when I dropped my s3 and cracked the screen. I was trying to warn everyone this can happen. So add insurance!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kulzboy:
Squaretrade gives you 90 days don't they?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sigaiser:
Ok, before the flaming commences, I have searched high and low and have tried all the options that I have found to no avail. I have a new Galaxy Note that still has Gingerbread installed. I am wanting to perform the upgrade to ICS, but am unable to via Kies. Having searched the internet, I have concluded Kies and Windows 8 preview are not working well together. And, like a dumbass, I have no way to restore back to Windows 7. In a rush to try the latest and greatest (thats a joke, I now know), I neglected to make a proper restore point.

My question is, how can I perform this upgrade with my current setup? At this point, I can not even install drivers to allow my computer to recognize my phone when attached.

Please xda community, any help would be very much appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Use Odin and flash the upgrade. You can run Odin as administrator, and compatibility mode if needed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] damastah:
Im assuming you want root. If you already have a recovery installed, just download a stock rom that was just rooted. If not, flash the recovery first, then do install any ICS rom you want. They even have JB ROMs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sigaiser:
Thanks for the advise. The problem I am having is getting my computer to recognize my phone when connected, even through Odin. Not sure why Samsung is being so bull headed about windows 8, even if it is a preview build. It's coming very soon and you'd think they would want to begin supporting it. My wife's lg nitro works great as does my previous one x.

Oh well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] skuffle:
I flashed my S3 today using Odin under Windows 8 64bit RTM. I just connected the phone in flash mode, went into device manager and pointed the phone entry at a folder of Samsung Windows 7 USB drivers (think they came from download.com or similar). Drivers updated themselves and Odin worked first time.

I haven't managed to get Kies working yet though, but I'm sure Samsung will be working on it now Win8 is final. It's not really vital if you've got Odin, and Kies Air works fine for file management.

Hope that helps :)

Hello. I was thinking of buying the Samsung Galaxy SIII from a t-mobile store, and getting Straight Talk's T-Mobile Micro SIM card. Would I be able to use the phone on Straight Talk's prepaid service then? Would I have any configuration issues or connectivity problems?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
I think you need to unlock your phone first but once you do, it should work fine.

Is unlocking the phone hard to do? How do I do it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Infamous_Cheez:
I bought mine unlocked from a retailer through Amazon. If you buy it through T Mobile you can ask them for an unlock code but I have read you need to have the account active and in good standing for 3 months. You can also buy an unlock code online from a few unlocking services.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DreadfulGlory:
Thanks man. Actually I found a lot of other people with the same questions. Turns out, as long as the phone is T-Mobile and the SIM Card is tmobile compatible from straight talk, it will work without unlocking it.

But thank you so much for your help man.

This is good to hear. I originally planned on checking both T Mobile and straight Talk to compare services in my area.

Hello,

there are hundreds of calculator apps around. But they are ether like the stock calculator.apk too essential and only offer the 4 basic calculations and few more features on an alternative layout. Or they are too scientific and you have to do a PhD in math to use them.

So does anyone know a calculator app that is good balanced in complexity and functionality? And it should not look too fancy please ;)

I tried Calculations and was quite happy from what I read. Unfortunately I got json errors when I used it and I did not really like the handling (which is not much of a problem but together with these json errors it's enough to keep on searching).

Then I saw this calculator for windows phone on xda.

I would like to have this on ICS. Just give me sqrt, percentage and 1/x with the 4 basic operations on the default layout and I am happy :)

Don't mind if trigonometric stuff or constants are included in alternative layouts.

Thanks in advance for all suggestions.

Where you also get app name of 'Calculator' and a nice Calculator icon unlike 3rd party apps.

I got my Samsung Galaxy S3 last week. Its my first Android so getting used to it.

Every time i take a photo and then connect to a wifi I get a notification saying 2 photos for instant upload from google plus.
