[HTC One X] Xharlie:
Yesterday, I downloaded the 4.0.4 OTA update and opted to install it. My phone was fully charged and plugged in to the charger. It is now stuck on a screen that is mostly black, with a little icon in the center (three green arrows, like a recycling or refresh icon, hovering slightly above a shadowy image of a phone)

It had been like this for an enormously long time when I left the office, last night. This morning, the screen was off and the LED was green but pressing the power button simply returned the black-screen-with-central-refresh-like-icon... and the LED went red.

What can I do? :eek:

I have made no attempt to root the device or mess with it in any way, since it is fairly new.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
Unplug the charger ;)
[HTC One X] Xharlie:
Ok - charger unplugged.

Now what? Wait for it to run out of battery and restart it in a day or so?
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Re-run the OTA, it'll work now
[HTC One X] bogfather:
EDIT: EddyOS beat me to it :)
[HTC One X] Xharlie:
Aside: Why doesn't it instruct you to unplug the charger before running the OTA in the first place? In fact, it tells you to ensure the phone is at least 35% charged... which, to me, is like a big flashing banner in all-caps instructing you to plug IN the charger before updating.

Back on topic: I have unplugged the charger and the phone is still stuck at the black-screen-with-central-refresh-like-icon. I'd gladly re-run the OTA... but how? Also, How can I reboot the phone to install an RUU since it has no removable battery or reset button as far as I can tell?

Also, which RUU? I am in South Africa and the phone comes from a local network, MTN. It is not carrier branded. It is black and GSM.

My previous phone was the original desire and I rooted that, turned S-OFF, loaded a bazillion ROMS over the 3 years during which I used it. I am quite happy to use tools like fastboot and other SDK tools. It never gave me ANY problems. Not once.
[HTC One X] bogfather:
Hold the power button for about 10 seconds to force the hox to reboot.

If it reboots the ota should work without it being plugged in to the charger, if not to find the right ruu you need to know what your cid is and what software version you were already on
[HTC One X] Xharlie:
Holding power button... ooh. This looks promising...
[HTC One X] bogfather:
Here's hoping lol
[HTC One X] Xharlie:
Ok. Holding the power-button to restart the phone caused the OTA to start from scratch - it seems to have worked. Thank you, all!
[HTC One X] bogfather:
No worries, glad it's sorted
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] RaiderSwaggin:
Im with rogers and my HTC Raider was working fien then today i dropped it and it turned off and wouln't get passed the white htc screen so i looked it up and basically people said to factory reset which didn't do anything still stuck at the hboot screen and i got the PH39IMG.ZIP and put it on the micro sd but it said Main Version is older update failed and i have no idea what to do If i get this fixed ill try and pay you on paypal or something
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Bigtjmc:
If you can get into hboot try to run the stock ics ruu file .

If your boot loader is unlocked then in order for the ruu to except install you will need to relock it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] RaiderSwaggin:
Installing right now fingers crossed to work thank you man
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Bigtjmc:
Let us know how it goes .
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] RaiderSwaggin:
Thanks man raider is working

"Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" option in CM10 Aug 25th Quarx2k Defy Nightly is resettin

Dears,

Ï just updated my Defy green lens phone a couple of days ago to CM10 nightly below version:

CM10-20120825-NIGHTLY-mb525.zip 25-Aug-2012 by Quarx2k

Since then my Wi-Fi doesnt sleep even though I select "Önly when plugged in" or "Never" under "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep". It is resetting itself to "Always" which is draining my battery.

I have noticed that this option only gets rest to "Always" only when the Wifi is manually stopped and activated.

Any one has any problems similar to this? Any resolution for this already out there?

Every thing else works just great. No problems what so ever and JB feels wonderful.

I am quite new here and a new member. I tried to search this but found some postings but found no answers. Sorry if I am not posting this question in the correct area or if I am asking some thing which has been answered.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fuzzybabybunny:
I got the Nexus from the Play Store less than a month ago. Yesterday it got dunked in salt water when I fell into a tide pool. I have the $30/month T-Mobile month to month plan and added the $7 insurance on it.

I haven't called Asurion yet, but I'm seeing from other people on the forums that even though I purchased the insurance, my Gnex still isn't covered?

WTF? Can someone confirm?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Pretty sure they cover it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
If the phone is not available from the carrier, then Asurion will not cover it. The question has already been asked and answered in this forum. Since the GSM GN is not officially supported by any US carrier, they won't cover it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Exodian:
Not true. Asurion has sent me a couple letters stating that t mobile has recognized that I am not using a carrier phone so t mobile will not warranty it but that asurion still covers it under its insurance policy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fuzzybabybunny:
Which is better? SquareTrade or Ensquared?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] modernbummer:
I've heard that Squaretrade has excellent customer service. I considered going with them for the GNex, but I decline insurance altogether. Chose not to go with Ascurion because I wouldn't be able to stand the monthly fee plus the deductible. At least with Squaretrade, you get your premium out of the way with one lump sum.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daystrom:
Look at these folks:

http://www.worthavegroup.com/

Seem to have really good rates and deductibles. Can buy up to 90 days into ownership too.
[Motorola Photon 4G] brotherhood13:
hey please help me, i have download the latest version(aroma) but i cant set the face unlock, when i set it up it show black screen (like the front camera not work) any fix.about this? (sorry for my bad english :p )

please help im really need face unlock :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Did you do a full wipe when installing? Have you tried wiping cache and dalvik and fixing permissions from recovery?
[Motorola Photon 4G] JustWorksTechnology:
Yes, that means wiping /system, /data, /cache, /dalvik-cache, and fixing permissions in recovery.

Or better yet, download Th3Bill's Full Wipe .zip from jokers website.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
I think Acvice means to select full wipe option inside aroma installer. if you do a full wipe before flashing a rom with an aroma installer it will fail because it needs a working rom as a base.
[Motorola Photon 4G] JustWorksTechnology:
Your right, my bad... But if he was installing a new rom without Aroma; He would want to do what I mentioned. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
That is what i meant. But to my knowledge, you 'can' do a full wipe before Aroma, but during the install process you would need to use the volume buttons to select options as the touchscreen won't work. It's just kindof redundant as you get the option to do a full wipe within Aroma anyway.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyclonmaster:
I want to restore all my sms/mms into my phone since I did not notice that my phone message setting was default to "delete old messages" where test message limit was 200 messages per conversation.

I did a previous backup using Titanium Backup. But if I did restore the old backup, it will overwrite the message content and "new message" will gone. How do I restore the old message while maintaining the new message in my phone?

Btw, I'm using Titanium Backup 4.2.1, my phone is LG Optimus 3D, Android 2.3.5.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsirhcitna:
You could try with GO Backup, I just try to restore two different backup and the sms were not duplicated, so:

1 install GO Backup

2 backup your sms

3 delete all your sms

4 restore them from titanium

5 restore from go backup

Hope it works!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyclonmaster:
Ok. I'll try. Thanks.

Btw, does it support MMS? What about this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsirhcitna:
On my phone it supports

SMS

MMS

Contacts

Call Log

Built-In launcher Layout

And if you're rooted you can backup apps
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
I've tried that in the past, worked well for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeylanHalfdan:
I use an app called sms backup and restore. Have been using it for over 2 years now. It even has an option to check to make sure you don't get duplicates I believe.

It would be the same steps as the first reply, but just use this app instead of GO backup.

Either way should work about the same.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyclonmaster:
sms backup & restore can only restore sms & call log, not mms.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeylanHalfdan:
hmm, that's weird. I know it says it doesn't support them, but it always seems to work on mms for me. I got all of my picture messages and long texts that were converted to mms when I restored after upgrading to the custom rom I am on now.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ubuntu-i9001:
i have i9001 with CM9 by ivendor beta 3

yesterday my phone get to 7% charge and with out charge suddenly i saw it 8% :silly:

is that a miss calculation or the phone charged it self (:D impossible :D)

if it was a miss calculation how to fix that :confused:

Sorry for my bad English

and here some screenshots
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vindikleuk:
Your phone reads the battery stats off your battery, and your battery may not be giving the actual percentage of the charge that is left to your phone. That's why the percentage went up again, no problem at all, your phone is fine. Seeing that you're on cyanogenmod, you may choose to recalibrate your battery. This will reset the battery stats that are shown, but does not improve your battery life in any way.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jlomein:
I'm thinking of using both a TF201 Prime and a Nexus 7. I'm curious if there is an automatic syncing app that would allow me to have the files in one or multiple folders synced between both devices.

Ideal scenario is say I download a music file on my TF201 to a folder labelled music, and it gets instantly synced to a music folder on my Nexus 7 when both are connected to my home wifi network.

I know this can be done with a cloud service like Dropbox, but it's very inefficient for large files with a slow ISP upload speed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] qery:
I'm using FolderSync to sync files between tablet and NAS (or PC) on local network. Maybe you could use it as well, there are many protocols supported.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Shoober:
I use Cheetah Sync to sync files from my home Server/PC to multiple android devices. The Cheetah Sync service runs on the Server/PC and an app runs on the android device. You specify the folders to sync via the app. The Cheetah Sync app automatically searches for PCs with the Cheetah Sync service running and connects.

I always Sync Manually but I believe there is a sync schedule you can set.

This solution works great for me.

I hope it helps you too.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testcenter:
hey guys!

im a proud owner of a n7 since tuesday. ;)

setup:

after the first setup of the n7 i unlocked the bootloader and flashed superuser. (did setup again after unlocking bootloader)

problem:

the screen turns off after a few minutes playing with the device and can not be started again.

turned out that the problem was the brightness (i was scared to have bricked it ;) )

i could reflash the factory image, and set the brightness to manual setup. (rooted again, because factory image did not fix the problem)

the device works fine (except of some flickering and auto brightness), but its annoying.

it seems that some more owner of a nexus 7 have this issue.

see the folowing youtube video:

*/watch?v=enzWLwVKSHs

(sry, im not allowed to post links, so just replace the "*" with "youtube.com" ;) )

is there any solution for this issue? (i think its software related, because the manual brightness would also let you disable the whole background lightning)

thanks in advance, lucas

I not think they will send you a brand new one, they just give refurbish. As told me someone, the auto brightness problem is not hardwares problem.

i do also think, it is not hardware related.

so i think, i will wait for a fix.

anybody found a fix already??
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sqs1shu:
After upgrade to 4.2, the problem became more apparent, cycling from dim to a bit brighter every one minute or so in a pretty constant ambient lighting. Called the customer service, told to do a factory reset, did that and the cycling is much less frequent. But factory reset method is too painful: lost all my customizations and files. It got to have a simpler solution, clear some setting property, perhaps.

Stupid question: if I install CM/Custom sense ROM which is AOSP - means i get OTA (Over the air updates?)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hugebulge:
No
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danny39:
No, you are on a different rom therefore OTA Updates don't affect you. Why do you ask?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
OTAs usually kill root. In the case of the last AT&T 2.20 OTA, it also plugged holes in the Hboot that allowed flashing of kernels and radios. Why would you want that?

Rule of thumb on any Android device, don't install OTAs if you are rooted and flash custom ROMs. If you want the latest firmware updates, they almost always get posted in pre-rooted, safe, recovery-flashable form in Development. This usually happens soon after OTAs start to hit (sometimes within hours) sometimes even before OTAs start to go out (in the case of posted leaks). Flash those instead.
