[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] royaljama:
My brother was using his Sidekick over a month ago and it randomly started being unresponsive, I then tried resetting it and it worked out. Within 30 mintues of it being reset it turned off and was stuck on boot loop, long story short from then to now I have tried literally everything (ODIN, KG2, KD1, Heimdall) and still haven't gotten it to turn on. Everytime I do any of these procedures I get a failure because the sidekick reboots while on download mode, I've been wasting so much time on this phone I just want an answer. The phone is in good physical condition and has never been dropped (On hard surfaces anyway) but I want to know if its fixable or beyond repair, thank you :silly:
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Foorperif:
same thing happen to me with my first sidekick nothing did fixed it
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] :
Well what I did was hold the sidekick buttons in down load mode. The whole time heimdall was open and attempt. To flash the bootloaders it works for me
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] TheLastSidekick:
Like xtreme88 said, you need to flash the bootloaders the easiest way to do this is through Heimdall.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] royaljama:
Hold the buttons that put the sidekick into download mode the whole time heimdall is running?? I will try that now and see what happens, Thanks!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] royaljama:
please guys, I'm sorta new at this and I can't spend that much of my time on it due to school and work, I want the most simplest answers and easiest way to fix this. If you could put active links up on this thread and step by step procedures on how I can fix it with the programs that would be excellent. Also I don't understand, I do use the bootloaders but am I really supposed to hold the download mode buttons the whole time? Thanks guys, and again please keep it simple for me :D
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] royaljama:
Everything goes smoothly until I reach FACTORYFS, it reboots itself when I'm at 53% everytime. How do I stop the sidekick from rebooting when I'm using heimdall or ODIN?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] royaljama:
One last thing, as of late the Sidekick can only go into download mode and no longer does the boot loop everytime I try to power it on. when I try to power it on nothing happens, when I put in the usb it goes into download mode automatically and keeps rebooting in download mode. .
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] TheLastSidekick:
Try clicking the box that says Flash bootloader

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peatee:
Hi. I'm still too new to post in the Dev forum.

If Th3Bill happens to see this, I've been having issues with his ROMs since they've been using Aroma.

I was on CWM but changed to TWRP. That didn't help.

I've tried PA & CNA. Both don't install the extra programs and usually I can't get past the setup screen. I just get a black screen. If I pull the battery and reboot, it starts and the screen goes black instead of lock screen. I hear emails or messages notifications but can't do anything.

Anyone with ideas?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captaincanada84:
You should probably post in his thread for the ROM you're having issues with. He's more likely to answer that way.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peatee:
Thanks but I can't.

The forum keeps telling me that I don't have enough posts to do anything in the Dev forum.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pre4speed:
Did you wipe before starting aroma? If so, don't. Also using cwm recovery you need to go to advanced>show error>save log>reboot recovery. Twrp doesn't have that option. I was only able to install cna after going back to cwm from twrp then the above steps. Hth
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Random Canadian:

That's a REALLY horrible advice and will only get you in trouble.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skovbakke:
I had this same issue with the latest PA. I had a black screen, but was somehow taken to the play store, where my apps were downloading/updating. So it seemed to be only the launcher that wasn't working. I also rebooted without success. Then I booted into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik and fixed permissions, rebooted -and it worked!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android-DEP:
Try my rom Androbreadcrumbs, I also used the aroma installer and it worse flawlessly whether you do wipe or dont before, it does everything for you. See if that works, I personally tested the entire installation from beginning to end for 2 weeks in development before posting it online so there are no bugs with the installer whatsover, if you still have issues after using my installer, then scream at me in PM, i'll help you out

P.S. Th3Bill also doesn't have an atrix and has a photon himself so he cannot test everything for our phones but he gets most of the things on point as he handle the MIUI builds for 12 different devices I believe, not to mention the other half-dozen ports that he does of other roms to other phones. So he has a lot on his plate to deal with, but if you can get a logcat off your phone using "adb logcat" and dump it into a .txt file so you can send it to him, you can still shoot him a PM with it and more than likely he will work with you to help out with whatever the issue is, he'll work with you if you help him to help you by providing such things as a logcat and full details on your configuration in Aroma & which choices you chose and what the problem is that you're experiencing. Remember, always goto the horse's mouth before going to the horse's ass and making an entire thread about something like this. For all you know, shooting him a proper PM could've resolved your problem faster than making a thread about it. Just saying pal, not trying to be an a**hole.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
I believe its posted somewhere that you must fix permissions after flashing.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android-DEP:
Never heard of that, the updater-script should set all the required permissions for you. The whole idea behind using aroma is to make the user not have to do anything but choose whichever options he\she may want to install and thats it. The rest should be handled by aroma config script and updater-script so the user has to do nothing more than reboot after installation and enjoy the experience. I've done extensive research on the edify syntax script writing for the updater script and the syntax for connecting the aroma-config file installer script and have never read anything about setting permissions afterwards anywhere after using aroma.

But feel free to read up yourself and perhaps I may have missed something somewhere. These thread should point you in the right direction.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 41.:
I believe wiping beforehand won't bug out an installation, but merely be a redundant step, since the installer will perform a wipe anyway.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peatee:
Thanks for all your comments.

My intention is to post in the proper thread but I cannot yet. (as I stated originally) I also didn't want to bother him yet with PMs. I'll take some of your suggestions and see what I can figure out.

Thanks for taking the time to post your thoughts.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android-DEP:
Hey, if you downloaded his rom then by all means you can shoot him a PM asking for a suggestion on what you should do. If your intention was to post in the right section, then making this thread in the Development section is a big no no and is the reason why you cannot post in that section until you atleast have 10 basic posts under your belt so you understand where you can post such topics.

Unless you meant that you were going to post in the thread for which ever rom you downloaded, then thats cool but you don't need to wait to be able to get send the developer a PM to ask a question. We're people too and majority of the developers on here wouldn't mind helping someone out with a problem they're having trying to get their rom working.

Long as you help the developer to help you by providing something that can be looked at like a logcat log for example instead of just saying something like "i installed everything, restarted but it gets stuck at the M logo and doesn't boot, help please".

Try running the installation again, after it's finished, reboot the phone and see if it boots again. If it doesn't boot up again, connect the phone to a usb cable to the PC, boot into recovery again, then open up a command prompt and run ADB, check that you can communicate with the phone by typing in "adb devices" and you should see a serial number and the word recovery listed which would be your phone. Then type in

adb logcat > "logcat.txt"

That will dump the device logcat into the logcat.txt which will be located in the same directory as where you are running adb.exe from, then post it up here for people to take a look at and see what's failing
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peatee:
Thanks android-DEP ...

I did end up PMing him and I'll follow your steps to get the logcat to him. My intention was to post my issue in the thread for the specific ROM I got the error with. I was not trying to open a new random post with my issue in the Dev forum. I've been around forums enough to know that would be a big no-no.

Thank you again.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android-DEP:
Well then, now that you put it like that, I can respect that. Some people come on here aimlessly and post garbage or truly stupid questions in the development section without using simple common sense to try to find a solution to their issue. Then disappear after the original post and never respond or post anything ever again. Not a big deal but gets annoying after a while as it's completely pointless and all the minutes other people spend reading the dumb posts, can never be regained back.

As you can tell this forum is moderated and kept up clean as well as the section topics are strictly followed when it comes to posting threads. So since you know how the forum thing works, it will only help you gain the most out of being on this one and welcome aboard.

Don't hold back on shooting any developer a PM if there's no other way you can contact him and run into issues using his rom. It's your right if anything to be able to contact the developer when you run into problems that aren't common or can easily be resolved otherwise.

Th3Bill is doesn't have an Atrix himself, he has a Photon. Although most of the things are really similar or identical between the 2 devices, he is not able to physically test the Atrix builds he put out and he relies on people to help him troubleshoot any Atrix builds. So the more info you can bring to him about anything problem you run into with the Atrix, the more detail he has to be able to debug the issue and correct it.

So it's better to raise the issue to his notice so he can look into it and correct it before release the next build which could potentially carry over the bug which would make it even harder to troubleshoot.

Well,

My favorite is Stock + Custom Kernel + True Tablet Mode patch.

I dont like Parandroid because the Tablet Mode was kind of gllitchy on my side. Maybe fixed in v2, I'vnt tried it.

The most used Rom is probably CM10.

But there is no better rom then other, it all depends on your need.

AOKP...but that's the only one I've tried. I'm going to flash more tomorrow. Its too late now...damn work tomorrow. Going to flash PA for sure, and one other.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
I was wondering where to start... i flashed Trinity Kernel saturday night, so now its a slippery slope to a custom rom.. i'm on stock at the moment.. if i flash a rom does it wipe everything on the device? music etc on the sd card? i can easilly enough install the apps again i have..

if i flash a new rom im guessing it will have its own kernel so i would need to install my own choice again?

cheers,

mick
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbroeders:
You can backup your apps with Titanium Backup. A full wipe/factory reset will wipe your apps, but will not wipe /sdcard. So, all your music etc should be safe.

If you flash a custom rom then yes, you will have the kernel that comes with it. You can flash a different one if you'd like.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] a63548:
Just noticed a few tweets from Peter Alfonso regarding pushing his Bugless Beast JellyBean source tree to github:

https://github.com/peteralfonso

http://download.peteralfonso.com/

Not sure if it's even a possibility for our phone, but I'd definitely love to see a Bugless Beast ROM. I remember using it on the original Droid, as well as my EVO for a short period of time and it was great. Any developers willing to try and bring this ROM to our phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
That would be nice. I ran his roms on my ns4g. Too bad he was treated very poorly and was disrespected by a mod with a power trip. LOTS of people loved his roms and used them. If anyone doesn't know who he is, he makes roms that are as stable as Calkulin's, very stock looking, but run like a sewing machine under the hood.
[Galaxy Note II General] iLiberate:

[Galaxy Note II General] Johev:
Yes, but there is no available price for any version.
[Galaxy Note II General] Hotobu:
Is the 64 GB a release model, or is it like the 64 GB version of the S3 where it'll just come out sometime in the future.
[Galaxy Note II General] non1oson:
why does it says edit/delete when there is no option to delete your post? -_-
[Galaxy Note II General] georgiejr:
I guess there will be a price difference between the 16gb, 32gb and 64gb. Since there is a micro sd slot, what would justify getting a 64gb as opposed to a 16 gb and just load up on the microsd card (guess it would work with a 64gb micro sd).
[Galaxy Note II General] Hotobu:
Because 64+64 > 16+64
[Galaxy Note II General] Hotobu:
Bump to ask this again.
[Galaxy Note II General] non1oson:
I think it's a future model. for obviously money making business reasons heh

will apps be able to install on SD card? that is my main concern. 32gb or 64gb will be the way to go...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan37tz:
So I'm playing with my GS3 this evening after using my wife's iPhone 4S and noticed while I cannot scroll or do anything on her screen with my finger nail, the GS3 register touch inputs from my FINGER NAIL. WTF.

I can select, scroll, ect, all with my finger nail. How awesome is that. I don't know how I never realized this before or maybe because of the new Jelly Bean leak update somehow made it possible. I was dead certain since our screens are capacitive they only register with things that are conductors like your skin and finger nails aren't conductors.

Well I'll go into work tomorrow and try it on a few other Galaxy S3's to see if they all do it. For now I'm really having fun impressing my wife and rubbing it in her face with the awesome power of the GS3.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsiPhiDan:
Hello All,

I am a high school math teacher considering the purchase of this for classroom usage. My goal is to wirelessly connect to my desktop PC and run my windows software from the tablet (using Jump Desktop or something similar). I will be controlling a program called SMART Notebook. My question is this: the only reason I really want this tablet over many others is the accuracy of the S Pen, which will be awesome for writing equations and such. However, will the S Pen even work while using those remote desktop control apps? I've heard people say it only works for a hand full of apps. If this is true, I would not purchase this tablet. Other tablets just are so unresponsive with styli that I've tried. It's very frustrating. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!! :D
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsiPhiDan:
In case this is a tl;dr situation:

Will the S pen function smoothly and accurately in an app such as Jump Desktop or any other app where you remote access a PC?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juvenile43:
U do know that the s note app automatically does math formulas and equations. Actually works pretty cool. Just to play around I wrote up a bunch of fake equations and it figured it out
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ampentium2:
Somehow i think you unresponsiveness issue is not coming from tablet itself but the network you used to connect both device... if that's the case note 10.1 wont be any help either...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsiPhiDan:
I did not know that - that's pretty cool! :)

I was testing the tablets with no network connection. I was just testing the accuracy of writing with various styli on various tablets. I didn't have an opportunity to try the whole PC remote control setup in the store.

Is it just me? Do I suck at using styli? Haha. I couldn't get things to write correctly. It would always miss spots in my numbers and stuff. As if you're writing in pen and it is running out of ink.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wazirgila:
Can we use this Emoji fonts in messaging? Or only in our phone only..:confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iridaki:
Please read the OP.

With this font, you will be able to VIEW emoji icons.

If you want to be able to INPUT emojis as well as viewing them, you need an app, like Emoji Keyboard (although this keyboard supports an older version of emoji).

With this tweak you will be able to VIEW emoji EVERYWHERE.

So, if someone sends you emoji via SMS, you will see them.

If you want to be able to reply with emojis, check the answer above. ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jatikeren:
ok i will try with taht apps :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] wazirgila:

Great.. its workksss... !! on my Xperia Mini Pro with ICS ... :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iridaki:

I am asking because the keyboard is using and older version of emoji encoding.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jatikeren:
the problem is, what the right font to see that icon... :\

using default droid-sans not working...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iridaki:
I told you this app uses an older encoding.

Try flashing this font, you should be able to see the old emojis then.

They will always be black and white, we use a font, not images.
