[HTC EVO 3D] airhead2015:
Can someone please help me?

So, I allowed my phone to update to ICS overnight, when I woke up, it was stuck on the HTC loading screen. I've tried everything I could think of with the limitations that I can't fastboot flash... I've tried to flash RUU from recovery, the PNG89.zip thing... and even wiping... I can't enter my phone except for recovery, and my computer can't find my phone because the settings are changed on my phone, so I can't change it. I can't do any fastboot flash commands which sucks... can someone please help me?
[HTC EVO 3D] beneath-a-burning-turtle:
Unlock using the HTCDev method, flash a new recovery and flash the rom at the link below, it's a rooted version of the ICS update

This SHOULD get your phone working again
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
I'm guessing you were rooted and then took the OTA update, which you should never do.
[HTC EVO 3D] airhead2015:
I wasn't rooted, I just did the HTC bootloader unlock... I still had custom ROM and everything since at the time I did it, no ROMs supported the bootloader... and now i just don't feel like putting ROMs on... so it's stock ROM, but 4ext recovery. I'm sending the phone in for repair... I'm just gonna have to pay a bit because of the recovery...

[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
Power off. Then press and HOLD power and volume down
[Dell Streak 7] mikerouse1969:
dose not work
[Dell Streak 7] gmaster1:
It might be a soft brick if it can boot up. If a hard reset via adb dosnt work then it probably a brick.or If you could get into download mode (or fastboot as i still dont get it after a year or 2) and flash stock firmware then it should work. If not then nothing will work as far as im concerned.

Guys, my cousin has very good phone. He knows nothing about rooting, etc. So I rooted his phone yesterday, and it's OC'd at 2.2 MHZ! :eek: His phone is very unpopular, only 5 ROMS available for it. The name of it is LG Esteem, from Metro PCS. it has a sister phone on Verizon, called the LG Revolution. Okay, on to my question.. Is it safe to flash roms made for the LG Revolution to his phone, the LG Esteem? :/ Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but there's no forums for his phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billchen0014:
probably not, phones are differently named for a reason (might stuff up his radio even if its the same phone but different carrier). anyways, this thread belongs to general, at the top of the list of forums.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BigStuart:
Not happy...

Today I tried my SanDisk 64gb sdxc card in my note 10.1... I've been using it in my 5.3" galaxy note for months. It mounted and read just fine in the Note 10.1, so I copied all the data off it, planning to use a 32gb card in my other note.

After I copied the data, I put the card back in the Note 10.1, and it said "blank card or unsupported file system"

To cut a long story short, the card is now corrupted and can't be formatted in either windows or the original Note.

So, if you're using this card in your original Note, DON'T put it in the 10.1!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] californiarailroader:
Format it with FAT 32.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] pdagal:
Ditto: format with FAT32, most SDXC cards are formatted ExFAT and that's not compatible with the Note 10.1. Use the tablet or a third party utility to format if you're a Windows user since Win7 wants to format using ExFat rather than FAT32 (Mac OS X can format large cards in FAT32). Drawbacks? FAT32 only supports individual file sizes up to 4 gigs per file.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BigStuart:
I've tried formatting it, it's toasted. Windows disk manager says it's 30.6gb, but won't format it because it says it's write protected... Neither of my notes will format it, they both say it's blank, and when I try to format they say it's currently being checked... I even tried SD Formatter from www.sdcard.org, and it says the card is write protected...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Evo 4G63:
this may sound kind of dumb, but if you use an SD card adaptor for your micro SD, did you check the lock slider on your SD hard? i was not able to format my microSD card on my note and was having the same issues with the write protect on my computer but i realized later on that my lock slider kept being pushed into the lock position whenever i slide my card into my reader. so, i unlocked it and carefully slid my card into my reader to make sure it doesn't lock. i formatted my card to fat32 on my computer using EASEUS Partition Master (http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm). it's easy to use and free. works great
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fscherz:
I did the same, don't forget to set the cluster size to 32 for a 64gb card. Works great.

Gesendet von meinem GT-N8000 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BigStuart:
Yes, I've tried it in 2 different card readers. I just tried EASEUS Partition Master and it can't do anything with the card either, the system reports the card as 30.6MB unallocated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fscherz:
I used the microSD to SD converter which came with my Sandisk and plug it directly into the notebook's SD slot.

I would say try another computer (or notebook).

There have been a number of reports of broken 64gb cards that will only format to 30.6gb, check this http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/550328-64gb-cards.htmldiscussion.

I think that 30.6gb is what you normally would get from a 32gb card.

I've had same problem with sdxc but after firmware update SD works ok.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] baste07:
i've not had a problem with my sandisk 64gb sdxc card
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] eclyptos:
I tosted a mounth ago my first 64GB SDXC the same day because I was not aware of what I should use and do to make it compatible with most devices.

First of all, the card is SDXC with exFAT, for that you HAVE to use an adapter compatible for that card, like Mobilelite 3G.

I put that card in my old card reader and after try to copy into the card a file ISO of 6GB the card crashed.

After that the card was not recognized.

Second mistake, I used not appropriate Software to format the card, from CMD in W7, Gparted Live, to many other.

You HAVE to use specific tools like FAT32Format or MiniTool Partition because this tools are made to do not delete the "Protected Area" which is needed to let working the card.

so,

step 1; Open the Blister Package and put the card into compatible SDXC Card Reader.

step 2; Format with FAT32 Format.

After that the card will work fantastically with ANY device and no complain at all.

Now I got my second 64GB SDXC formatter in Fat32 and my OLD HTC Touch Diamond 2 see the card with full capacity of 60GB!

Amazing! Right?

:D
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
If its a new card you should have a warranty get it replaced.

I had a similar proble with a 16 gb card on my optimux 2x and from Sandisk itself. When I inserted it recognized and then the card was fried fortunately it was replaced by the seller in couple of days I still have the old card as they did not bother to take it back.

That time i thought it was a fake
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] eclyptos:
This is what I did and I was refunded before to pay for another one.

Ok, so in this case you can do this way;

step 1; Open the Blister Package and put the card into compatible SDXC Card Reader.

step 2; Use h2testw to test the card if it's fake.

step 3; when you know is good format with the right tool.

They do not bother you to take the card back? Strange? And the second one is good?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] qwesa:
I registered at xda-developers, just to tell you that you made my day! I love HTC Diamond 2 (and not going to replace it any time soon), and my biggest "complain" was the 32 GB limitation, which I thought cannot be bypassed without some serious driver-level hacking.

May I ask which SDXC you bought and which firmware you have on your HTC? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] eclyptos:
I bought Sandisk SDXC 64GB Class 10 UHS-1 (reading 28mb/s, writing 14mb/s actual) but out there are also ADATA and Kingstone and what I know you should try to get ADATA 64GB, is impressive.

Many people complain for the Sandisk and currently I testing the card, ( I was not aware of ADATA before) so no problem at the moment.

My ROM on my Diamond is Windows Mobile 6.5 NATALY, see the Pic, I think is the best one, bug free, no problem at all.

So if you try to buy a 64GB follow the steps from my posts and all will be fine.

Don't forget to clik on thanks button for me, :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] DammitCubs:
I have just boughtagalaxy nok 10.1 recently and ordered a 64GB SD card. Are you saying that the SD card will not work On my tablet.

I have heard that 10.1 supports exfat...is that oonly for ice cream sandwich as well as jelly bean. Or just for jelly bean? I just ordered one like yesterday
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] kousakasan:
I bought a Sandisc 64 gig microsd and found I couldnt use it between my phone, note, win7 pc and Linux laptop because of the exFat format.

But after I put it in my Droid Raxr Maxx and it said I needed to reformat it, I let it. Now it works on everyting.

Hi, wondering if others had similar problems or fixes.

After a while of use, the touchscreen becomes unprecise and quite unresponsive. For example, it becomes difficult to input strokes or use the keyboard. This problem disappears when I immediately sleep and reawake the device.

Any ideas?

Thanks!!!

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alpatalik:
So, I was using .431 generic global world (GGW) build for my xperia arc till today.

Today, I noticed that .587 GGW came out and decided to update.

I already had unlocked bootlader with no root with .431.

First, I backup everything & factory-wiped my phone.

I tried to enter flash mode with no avail for over 10+ tries.

Then I decided to trick SPC update to force my phone into flash mode.

It put the phone to flash mode as I thought.

I successfully flashed .587.

Then I started to root.

I used the guide at this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26805903&postcount=3

After the 2nd step I noticed that I can't enter the flash mode even with SPC trick.

I deleted all previous usb drivers and settings.

I also reinstalled all sony software and drivers from scratch.

I was still unable to enter flash mode.

Then, I noticed I could enter fastmode.

So, I renamed the ftf file to zip and extracted the files.

Then, I used fastboot mode to flash new kernel.

Phone was rooted and working.

I installed CWM and got a full backup.

So, I thought why not try a custom mod after the root.

I decided to try Hybrid MooDeD JB-ICS 100.0.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1526717

I followed all the instructions to the letter and made the install.

The phone asked for reboot and when it rebooted it got stuck at Sony logo.

I checked the thread a little bit more (my fault for not checking all before but in my defence it's 101 pages..) and it seems it's kernel is based for .431 and I was using .587.

So now, I can't enter the flash mode nor fastmode and the phone is stuck at sony logo.

Help please...

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
You didn't read the first post completely, did you?

OP: How come you can't access flashmode or fastboot mode? Then you are doing something wrong. Besides, problem is that you didn't install proper custom kernel for the ROM.

And previous ROM has nothing to do with it, doesn't matter which ROM you had earlier, new one will install and delete/replace all the files.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alpatalik:
I realise that. I put all the info up to OP so that ppl won't waste time by asking me what happened exactly.

Nevertheless, I really can't access flash/fastmode at all. I tried removing the battery and start clicking all the things before putting the battery back on. But nothing happens. I just see the sony logo.

if you can boot upto se logo so your semcboot is not broken

so now tell me if you could enter fastboot before you unlocked bl?:rolleyes:

and try to unlock it again using test point method (there is also a free one with S1TOOL if you had bl unlock allowed = yes if you could recall) i recommend not to use paid one bcoz you can pay that to sony to recover it and may be after that you could get into fastboot mod

if it didn't helped try to repair semcboot or trim area contact alejandrissimo for that it also follows testpoint method and its free:D

i think now only way to connect phone to pc is using testpoint!!!!!

Hey unlocking the bootloader let's you flash unsigned images, but it voids ur warranty and there is no way back :0. Root just let's u modify the system and grant superuser access.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott.m:
I rooted but left the bootloader locked. AdAway and Avast's firewall alone make root worth it imo. It really depends on if you want root-enabled apps.

I see people talk about titanium backup a lot but ive never used it and the stock app backup app appears to do the same job without root
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XperianceIT:
titanium backup is good as it also allows you to remove system apps, and also allows you to make user apps into system apps. for example i removed stock browser, stock gallery and replaced with chrome, and quickpic, added google talk as system app since my custom rom didnt have the app at all, and i actually use it often... lol It just allows you to customize your ROM how you want it as far as apps go. (debloat is the most common use of titanium backup)

[Motorola Droid X2] swope1221:
Hi everyone. My wife and I both have GPS issues on our Droid X2s. They were both rooted using Super One Click found here, latest version at the time they were rooted (2.3.3 I believe). After rooting, and this has been for a month or so, the GPS will frequently fail. When I say that I mean that I not only don't get the searching for gps message, the little icon in the notification bar doesn't even blink. Most of the time toggling gps on and off using the power widget brings it back, but this happens way too often, sometimes it doesn't even work right after a reboot and a battery pull!

I tried sbfing back to stock 2.3.4, and then it works. So I proceed to root as usual (super one click, voodoo root keeper, ota update to latest firmware, then restore root via voodoo) and again it fails frequently, both phones. I am looking for any help/ideas here as I have googled and read several forms but no solution has worked. I am at the point I am ready to purchase 2 new droid razr maxx, but I really don't want to as these phones were only purchased a little over a year ago and it would mean forking over $1300.

Thanks in advance.

Eric
[Motorola Droid X2] Draphix:
I might suggest trying a different rom maybe a 2.3.4 rom. I wasn't on cm7 for very long but I think I remember the GPS being pretty stable. I'm on paranoid android now and the gps lock is almost instant and doesn't let go. It eats battery like crazy and drives me crazy sometimes but I love it. Wouldn't recommend it or the other cm9 roms if you are looking for worry free performance. Eclipse is probably the answer for that although I don't remember GPS performance at all. And seriously $1300? Don't go Motorola if you are going to fork over that kind of cash. You could get 2 galaxy s3's for way less than that, now that it's unlocked that's a way better option in my opinion. Or the nexus for even less. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] GuestK00367:
Yes, Id recommend a ROM that stays on 2.3.4 like CM7. Been using CM7 for over two months with just a minor glitch every now and then, it says beta but its quite close to a stable release. Thats odd that you would have gps on 2.3.4 but lose it when you updated, Im not sure Ive ever heard of that. Good Luck.
