Did you use some MOD for a specific ROM, on another one? Like the one from FreeGS3 on Blazer?

Check if the mod is compatible with your ROM.

let's go to the next level... BRICK IT!!!

No all stock just edited a file
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csmasn:
As others members said.... reflash. But as you are stock, go and choose some ROM with the mod. I use FreeGS3 and it have the mod.

Btw. If someone knows. What is the Hot Boot?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Surfinette:
Hi,

I'm pretty new to the SGS world and it's the first time I have a phone with MTP/PTP mount when connecting to a PC.

1) Is it safe to "hot" unplugg the SGS3 from the PC? I can't see any unmount button/option on the device

On my previous phone, with "normal" USB connection, I would unmount the phone first before unplugging it from the PC, otherwise I might risk loosing some data on my sdcard (already happened to me).

2) Is there any way to speed-up file transfer between PC <-> Internal SD card, because it is sooooooooo slooooooooooow!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zoot1:
There is no usb option with device... If you want though then there is a app which requires root..

You can unplug it whenever you want..

I don't know how you can make the transfers faster

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blue Reaper:
Just received my Nexus 7 today. I tried booting it up right of the box when the google logo came out and then the screen went black. I thought it might only need recharging. so I plugged it in to charge and waited for the battery icon to show that its charging. I tried booting up again after three hours of charging, the google logo came out again and then the brightness of the screen lowers and I can still barely see the logo. The screen blacked out again and the X showed up and I thought it was booting when it disappeared quickly and it blacked out again. I waited for a while and nothing is showing up on the screen. I tried rebooting a million times and the same thing happens every time. I plugged the tablet to my PC and I can open the internal memory when nothing is showing on the screen after boot up. I went into fastboot mode and unlocked the bootloader and rooted the nexus and tried rebooting with the same result. I tried flashing the stock rom twice using the toolkit and again using adb with no luck. I'm trying to flash a custom rom to see if it fixes anything but I can't seem to boot into recovery either. Can someone show me how to flash a custom rom at fastboot by adb without using recovery? I tried searching for a solution but couldn't find anything. Did someone have the same problem?

I'm from Abu Dhabi and unfortunately I won't be able to return it without wasting a fortune on shipping.

Thanks in advance :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan35310:
I Think what you'll have to do is finding a recovery program like Odin. It seems like there might be something wrong at bootup maybe. I think it is the ROM. You have to find out how to flash the ROM again. If that doesn't work flash a custom ROM like CM10 or something.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potblack2win:
Odin? isn't that for samsung.

Try booting your nexus 7 into the bootloader. Turn off device hold Volume UP and Volume DOWN and hold onto the power button.

You should now be in the bootloader.

If you are in bootloader you should be able to flash the stock rom again. Use this toolkit

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1809195 Option 9

Install the correct drivers then install the toolkit as far as I am aware it has a option to restore stock image.

Hope this helps!!!

Oh Sorry. I have A Galaxy Exhibit so I use Odin. I thought it was throughout Android. Oh well, I hope your solution helps him.

I tried flashing the stock ROM with the toolkit twice and I get the same thing. Anyone knows how to flash a custom ROM without using a recovery image? Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
flash your roms/kernels in your custom recovery. educate yourself before you brick your device.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potblack2win:
Use option 8 that will unlock your bootloader, root your device and flash custom recovery. Once done you will be able to flash any custom rom easily via Clockworkmod recovery

Hope that helps
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blue Reaper:
If you have read my first post or the title for that matter you would have already known that the device wasn't working OUT OF THE BOX. You would also know that I have already tried flashing a custom recovery without any success. Thanks for your input BTW :)

I have already unlocked my bootloader through mskip's toolkit and have rooted my device through wug's root toolkit because mskip's required me to enable debugging which wasn't possible in my situation. I tried flashing a custom recovery or even booting into one but it just loops and nothing happens.

I was wondering if I could use adb command prompt to flash a custom ROM through the bootloader if someone can give me the commands or a link to thread with instructions (I tried searching but couldn't find anything) Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you really shouldnt use the root toolkits, they are more trouble and more confusing than doing it the right way. in a nutshell, this is the whole process for any nexus device.

1. fastboot oem unlock

2. fastboot flash a custom recovery

3. flash the su binaries or custom rom in your custom recovery

4. reboot and profit.

if you google fastboot recovery, im sure that youll find an answer. the fastboot process of flashing a recovery is the same for all android devices, just the file name is different.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesst20:
No seriously, dont flash a Custom Recovery/Custom Rom at first !

I will tell you what to do step by step to get the Original Rom (Stock) working.

First ! Download the Stock rom from google :) https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/nakasi-jro03d-factory-e102ba72.tgz

2. Get Fastboot, it is in the Android SDK or on the web(would be easier I think)

3. Open CMD/Terminal

4. (Linux/Mac Only otherwise skip this): Type sudo -s (It is going to ask for your password, type it.)

5. Run these command one by one :

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase recovery

6. Alright so now your device is empty, so any broken file is gone.

7. Extract the firmware you downloaded at first step (Dont extract the archive inside).

8. Type these command :

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-grouper-3.34.img

fastboot reboot-booloader

fastboot -w update image-nakasi-jro03d.zip

9. Wait until it is done and the device will boot up ! :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparrothead1:
Sounds to me that your automatic brightness control is off......try this. Power up and after the Nexus X shows up and the screen goes black, give it about two or three minutes to finish booting. Then, with the power still on, take it out in the bright sunlight or shine a flashlight on the screen. If you see the start up options, then it is the brightness control and a simple adjustment in the settings will take care if it.

Good luck!!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blue Reaper:
You beat me to it! I was going to post this right before I read your reply :silly:

"Thanks for all the help guys! So I found out what's wrong and it is one of the most frustrating defects I have ever encountered. When the screen was blacking out after boot up the device was actually working the whole time only the screen was off (as in ZERO brightness). The way I found out was when I tried rebooting into fastboot I heard a screenshot sound when pressing the power and volume down button. So I hooked up the tablet to my PC to take a look at what I captured. To my surprise, it was the welcome screen. I kept taking screenshots until I reached the settings to enable debugging ( Apparently, the rooting wasn't successful using wug's toolkit). After enabling debugging I was going to reboot but I had an idea. I thought if I used my Galaxy Nexus's LED light on the screen I might be able to see something. Stupid idea right? WRONG! The moment I pointed the light at the screen the screen magically brightened up and was working fine! I turned the screen off and on again and the screen was dim again. And once again turned on when I flashed my LED on it. I figured out it was the light sensor after reading a thread on androidforums...

I guess I'll have to deal with it, I don't use automatic brightness anyway :rolleyes:

Thanks again! :)"
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparrothead1:
Once you get it going, you should be able to put it on auto and it should work just fine. And if it doesn't, at least you will know how to fix it.

Enjoy your N7, I know I do:laugh:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesst20:
Hmm that sucks :/ If I were you, I would not deal with this, I would ask Google/Shop for a replacement. Why keeping something broken when you can get one fully working ? If you deal with google it is cool because you only send your broken device once you got your new one so that way you can keep using it all the time :) Also, it would be a pain to keep broken, everytime you flash a new rom, you would have the automatic brightness turned on by default :/
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dparrothead1:
It's not broken. Just a one time glitch!! :good:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poondog:
On my first N7, it had the problem where the backlight would go off if the brightness got below 20% or so. Happened on both autobrightness and manual brightness. The screen looked off but at an angle, you could see the image on the screen

Take it back ASAP because that is a hardware issue iirc, I took it back the next day and got a new one. If your device is like that, DO NOT modify it in any way eg. unlock the bootloader/rooting it

I also made sure that the display didn't have this problem before I left the store lol just to make sure

Just my 2 cent but seriously, if this is the case with your device, take it back.

Hi this is my first post on xda so bear with my n00biness. :p

I've flashed Entropy's ClockworkMod and a couple of ics roms and it was really nice and getting better every new release. However, my occasional need for my camera and flash player brought me to do a restore back to stock rom (which I backed up on cwm).

Unfortunately, when cwm checks its md5 sum it ends up with an error saying there's a mismatch.

Is there a problem with my version of cwm? Or would I have to wipe my data beforehand?

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Did you rename the backup? Sometimes this causes CWM to mess up. If you did rename it then name it something like 'stock' and try restoring again

:o thank you so much the bit of time you've given for me, guys.. even after answering questions that you may have said already :p

Well now this smart guy decided to see if he has the md5 file inside the recovery file, and, pretty surprisingly, there were no nandroid file :confused: except for one of my newer backups. (But that apparently doesn't have the md5 file included in that nandroid file either :confused: :confused: )

Oh well. Renaming the backup won't bring back the file, will it? :p are all md5's unique per backup? And, just making sure, there needs to be a nandroid file in the recovery folder, right...?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] heet1:
umm i think they are different and yes there has to be a nandroid file in the backup folder or else if you screw up the backup wont help either way :)

create an empty text file and name it nandroid.md5 in the backup folder

then use my script which is located in sig
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] annoyingduck:
I have a similar issue with not being able to locate the backups in a folder. Not in cwm folder where they should be. I went through every file I could think of to locate with no prevail, but yet in recovery - there they are! Is this because the cwm recovery is pushed in with the kernel and not through rom manager? Also, has anybody messed around with selecting a different device in rom manager because galaxy player is not listed?
