[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SammyXNA:
My X10 mini pro has been fully bricked for some time now, moved onto an Xperia U. However, I still would like to see if this is still possible to unbrick.

Firstly, I have bricked my x10 mini pro many times and ended up unbricking it with Sony's official repair phone feature. Now, the brick before my current brick was harder to deal with. It appeared as if my phone eated up all the power from my previous battery and would not let it turn on at all, just red led blinks. So I ended up replacing the battery and attempted to turn the phone on, viola. It powered, but did not boot into the kernel screen (NAA 11 ICS or something, it was quite a while ago) Although, it did go into flashmode that made it easier for me to unbrick with Flashtool by flashing the stock rom/kernel manually.

Now, after restoring my phone to its original state by re-flashing MiniCM9 3.0.4 and stuff, my phone suddenly decided to freeze itself in its sleeping state. Battery pulls and replaces did not help at all, it does not power on at all, period. Can't get it into flash mode at all, it's just.. Dead? I don't know how it happened, the last ever task I set my x10 mini to do was sync and download my playlist on Spotify.

What's weird is, if the battery is low the led will blink red as normal as it should. Another charged battery would do nothing at all. I've taken it to repair shops, no luck. They all say it's dead so I'm at my last resort, the community of phone enthusiasts. Is there any way to unbrick my old fantastic phone?

Thanks.

There is still LED, so I think it is not hard brick. But if it is, you can try to go to a phone technician that has a JTAG tool. JTAG tool fix bootloaders if it is messed up. It is on a hardware level so home remedies is no longer possible. A hard bricked is a litterally dead at all, no LED and no response. In your case IDK if you really have a defective battery. But my guess is you have a messed up bootloader, the hardware cannot communicate with your software because of that your phone cannot boot(not even on kernel logo), just my guess, maybe im wrong or maybe im right. MAYBE JTAG is the answer for your problem.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SammyXNA:
Bootloader being messed up sounds about right, and yeah gonna have to manually flash it with hardware such as the JTAG tool as you mentioned. Bah, thanks for the reply.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
dont use rootkits, everything would have been easier without. you have a nexus.. fastboot oem unlock, fastboot flash a custom recovery, flash a custom rom or su binaries, and reboot. that is all. anyways, install supersu, open it, update your su binaries. there is a flashable version on xda, or the free supersu app in the play market.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ragnar:
@ JediNinjafication yes, why are you using a tool kit? You are way above that!!

flashable in your custom recovery http://download.chainfire.eu/212/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip

the point is that you dont need fastboot or a root toolkit to get your su back. flash it, open the app after you boot. if it says that you need to update it, do it. if not, then you are good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
had no recovery at the time. when restored it took that too.

and i do not use kits. ever.

I just jumped from an iPhone to the Galaxy S3. Really loved it until..... I installed GO SMS Pro and started receiving double texts. I reached this extensively on the web and couldn't find any thing that worked so i de-installed it. I then installed Handcent 4.4.3 and low and behold, I get double texts again. I don't get double when i have the native Galaxy text app.

From what i can tell, there may be a way to "turn off" the default text notification but i cant seem to find that anywhere. Surly I am not the only person with problem on the Galaxy. Can anyone help please? Thank you.

Yep, the info listed above is correct if the problem is that GoSMS Pro and the stock messaging app are both giving notifications. But if one is getting duplicate, the above won't work.

This is for folks who don't want to wait around for kies firmware upgrade and prefer to use kies to update. The whole process on kies is slow and takes like more than 20 minutes or so. If you have slower internet then even more time. This is the .tar file which you can flash using ODIN. The file saved my data so it should save yours too. But backup stuff anyways. ODIN will be linked below. You will lose root if you are rooted. This is the official STOCK firmware. Don't get confused.

Use at your OWN risk.

File was in the appdata/temp folder. It disappears as soon as kies download finishes.

Its a torrent. Sorry, I have no hosts..

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
anybody md5 this against the leak to confirm? I am out and won't be home for a while so I can't do it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] felimz:
Can this be flashed through recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
No. Odin or mobile Odin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
I was in such a hurry to leave for work or I would have posted the md5.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
No. You can use odin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] felimz:
If I flash through Odin, would this preserve all of my user data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
Not if it is a full tar. Open the tar and if you don't see cache or data images you are good. If you do see them use 7ZIP or something to delete them out. Delete both cache and data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Good question.. Not too sure. Kies applied my update so not sure if kies preserved.my data or it was that file. But my stuff was saved which was just my wifi key. I had odin backed to el29, accepted ff18 ota and then used kies to go to fh13.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
:edit: Seeds :) And I'll leave mine up as well.

(Who's located in the D.R.?? ;))
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
With Kies you can go from EL29 to FH13 directly. Doesn't matter if you are in Stock EK02/EL29/FF18 Kies will update you to FH13.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Yes thats true because when I was on el29 before accepting ota ff18, kies showed fh13 update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lalakersfan88:
so, i updated my phone with the leaked fh13 following qbking's video and have been facing several phone turn off and having to remove the battery..

to update with the official fh13, do i just overwrite the current fh13 or do i have to somehow go back to ff18?

thanks!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
I just MD5'd the leak tar from Sextape with this tar from kies and they are identical. The leak has three files that this tar doesn't data.img, cache.img and param.lfs. So this is not any newer than the original leak. Once I can pull it apart I will run one last check to confirm every file inside is the same. But if they weren't the md5 wouldn't match so I can guarantee these are the same, with the exception of the 3 files mentioned.

cache.img - only in first folder

data.img - only in first folder

param.lfs - only in first folder

Found 3 differences and 7 identical files.

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------

OK I just confirmed that every single file inside /system is identical.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
May be folks with issues should use crawrj's rooted fh13 instead of one click and see what happens.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
This is probably redundant but it worked for me. I was having a small fc issue that made me install twice.

First I did Odin one click rooted full stock. http://sxtp-forum.com/showthread.ph...el-Modem-Full-Restore)&p=33&viewfull=1#post33

After that was done, I installed recovery with mobile Odin pro. http://d-h.st/ZKA

Next I booted into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik. After that I flashed a rooted nodata zip. http://d-h.st/Txi

I then booted into system normally, let it update and finalize installation. After everything settled down I updated the profile and prl then rebooted and I'm good to go. I just installed it the same way tonight on the gf's white e4gt and will see how that goes. Her phone has flaked out on my old favorite rom, calkulin's el29 2.8.1 and ran rooted Odin one click ff18 when my phone didn't like it and ran like crap so what may work for one phone may not work for another. Beats me?! Oh, one last thing, I verified the md5 on everything before using them IF the OP posted the md5 for their files. There might have been one that didn't. It might have been the Odin one click.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
To inject root into this tar all I have to do is replace the zImage with a rooted zImage / custom kernel zImage ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
Yes if there is one. Or flash a custom recovery and then flash the supersu zip.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
What I would do is modify the tar and add kuban or agat kernel, that way I can just ODIN and have my stuff all set. I just have to get around to ACTUALLY doing that :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
I am doing it right now and will test. Reporting in sometime.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
Oh misunderstood. See what you were asking now. Ooops :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
ok so replacing zimage with one from lets say for example agat's fh13 stock repack will give custom recovery with root? Still need to get the superuser app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
That is correct, one still needs to get the superuser app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
I don't think that kernel is rooted. Most people prefer to root the system and nor the recovery. I am not sure if any of the kernels are rooted. Haven't checked because i prefer to root system.

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ----------

Since we know they are the same you can use my tar and stock the kernel you like in it. That way you will be rooted for sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Yes I do read mister. I just outlined what worked for me in case any of the lurking readers of this topic might get something helpful out of it. I read in other posts about some having a hard time installing and be problem free. They can try what I did and see if it helps if they feel so inclined.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EvoRocker:
Is the FH13 the bug fix that was announced today? I'm trying to update my brothers phone, is the update only available through kies or can I wait to get it ota?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
FH13 is available already by Kies. OTA seems to be questionable - even the Sprint techs haven't gotten it yet if that says anything. (According to a post today on Sprint Community.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
Since we are on the topic of rooting, how do I root the update? I already updated via kies and all my data was saved but of course root is gone, I am very happy with FH13 now. I used rwilcos full one click wipe data and was having terrible battery life and the rom just didn't feel right. I have been so used to using the rooted one clicks that I am kinda lost on his to root a stock rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rovar:
Odin a custom recovery then flash superuser or supersu.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Try my pre-rooted one click. It in the third post of rwilco's thread. No issues so far.

[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
Ever since I started playing with FP5 the only way I can get the music in my phone to route through the car dock into the car speakers is to turn on Stock Music Player and tap the speaker button. I didn't have to do this when I was on Tweaked 2.2. I used Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector back then but it doesn't work now.

I like to use PowerAmp to play music from my phone. But I have to turn the stock player on, start up a song, set it to play through the speaker, pause the song then back out of it before it will play through the car radio using PowerAmp. If I reboot my phone it shuts it off and I have to start over.

Is there a setting or some other way of making this work without involving stock player?

Update: I was able to get it to work with dock sound redirector. I'll be back if there are future developments.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
Forget it. I got sick of trying to get FP5 to be like I want it. I went back to Tweaked 2.2 FP1 and I will just wait for Tweaked 3.0. My phone plays through the car radio perfectly now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
I think I figured it out. Tweaked doesn't come with the stock music player. I wonder if it would have worked if I had frozen it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
have you tried google music player?
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
Yeah. It's okay. I'm back on Tweaked and it's all good.

My lock screen disappeared on most ROMs including stock. I can't explain when or why exactly; A few weeks after root, but no other halfway relevant events. When I hit power it turns off directly without locking--no power menu either. I unrooted and reinstalled stock and it solved nothing so I'm back to AOKP. Two greedy thieves live with me, three feet tall and prone to sabotage (edit: hmm, wait a minute...) so I need a lockable screen always. Ideas? Thanks.

Hi!

I'm looking for the smoothest, fastest and most stable Android rom for my Optimus P990.

ICS rom would be prefered, a good custom camera would be nice as well. :)

Currently running CM 7.1, but It's starting to bug, and I cannot connect the device to my PC anymore. Also, it's generally running rather slow, menus aren't smooth, and the browser is slow.

I've previously used NovaHD ICS, but the video function didn't work, along with some other stuff.

Which would you recommend for me?

Thanks!

Regards, Cola.
[LG Optimus 2x] I.m.Tuga:
I`m sorry to disappoint you but there is no ICS with video/camera function working right now (Blame nvidia/LG)

EaglesBlood, NovaHD, MrHydeCM9 have all a general issue (no HW acceleration)

For full use of your phone try Temasek's work, it is awesome. Try, if you want CM 7.2 stable, it is not bad at all, or even Miui which is super smooth.

There's so much to try.....Good luck

I'll have a look around. Though I wont take CM again, as I've tried multiple of them now.

You mention MIUI. I've seen their site, but cannot seem to find a rom for my phone. Can you help me out here?
