[HTC Amaze 4G] Spastic909:
So I just got off the phone with the retention department and and they would not offer me a different phone even though I am now returning for the fifth time a defective amaze 4 G.

I know hasoon works there and I think I heard him mentioned something about haggling with retention department and then finally getting a new phone to replace the defective phone that was re sent over and over and over.

Any help would be great please
[HTC Amaze 4G] eliasadrian:
I've never worked for T-Mobile but have had a lot of returns. The last one was returning my 3rd mytouch4g in a year, and even though they told me their policy is a different phone if you have 3 exchanges within a month, I kept telling them I wasn't happy so they exchanged my phone and also gave me a new amaze. So I ended up with a replacement, and a new phone (this was two months after the amaze came out) even though my upgrade wasn't for another year.

Basically I was in shock how well they treated me, but this was also after talking to a rep who was rude and not helpful, and then a different rep hooked me up and apologized for the other one. Maybe I've been lucky or they like me cuz I've been with them 13 years, but they always treat me right even if it sometimes takes awhile.

My favorite is telling them I'm not happy, and being so nice and ignorant that they get on my side, haha.
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
I used to work at T-Mo. Not anymore. Depending on your state, look at your lemon laws for phones. Just have them exchange it and do it another 3 times. Then they will give you another phone. They'll give you a crappier phone. I just kept my Amaze. Much better than the Blaze and the Sensation.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spastic909:
So even through retention and multiple returns my only options for a new phone would be a sensation or the blaze...gay!

Is it the original sensation or 1 of the newer ones that have been released over the past 11 months give or take?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Same old sensation, I'm surprised they still have those.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
Okay so I seem to have run into a little problem I was planning on updating cleanrom up to 1.2.5 but was on cwm. I had managed to switch over successfully to twrp 2.2.0. I went ahead and used goo manager to download the updated zip of 2.2.1 and tried flashing it thru twrp. Now I am stuck in google bootloop and cant get into recovery or more importantly bootloader. I have been trying last 30mins to hold power and both volume buttons but it either keeps rebooting back to the google screen or not doing anything at all just have to repress to to turn it off but it will turn back on automatically. I tried hooking it up to my usb and labtop but it looks like it wont even recognize it. I just fully charged it so I am good for now just a little worried cant get out of this mess.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ayocuz:
I ran into a problem like that with clockwork recovery it kept on rebooting in recovery but I could still go into download mode I was at work away from my computer so I had no choice but to keep trying that three button magic until it finally restored a backup I had on my external card.just keep on trying to pull the battery then try to go into recovery. You might 've gotten a bad download
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
problem is I cant get into recovery. or the green screen to get to bootloader. It just completely stuck in a bootloop on the google screen mocking me... I am really contemplating opening it up and taking out battery but is that a good idea? Or is there anything else I can do?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
so I pulled off the back cover but really dont want o disconnect the battery might mess something up but I cannot get the device to shut off.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
disconnecting the battery does nothing it shuts it off and keeps it off but when I connect it to the charger the battery symbol pops up for a second and then goes completely blank. I went ahead and tried again to boot into bootloader pressing power vol up + down and all combinations of power vol -, power vol +

power turbo press vol +/- but no luck still in google screen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veeman:
If you're in a bootloop you need to connect your Nexus 7 to a computer. Then you will be able to access recovery via the Power button and volume buttons.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
is it going to make a difference that everytime i try to reboot it just the black google screen? I have tried it connected to the wall charger and connected usb to the labtop but nothing.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
It's supposed to do that when you're trying to go to recovery from bootloader without the USB cable plugged into a computer, may need to have the drivers installed on said computer. It's an issue with the nexus 7 bootloader and every one of them does it. What your experiencing is perfectly normal if you tried to go to recovery from bootloader with the bolume buttons and then got the google screen bootloop.

If it doesn't work when you plug it in and try, then try unplugging it, manually rebooting with it plugged in first, or vice versa

Update: I can get on Team Viewer and remotely reboot you into recovery through the PC if you want, or at least give it my best shot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
ok so i disconnected battery and have the device off. I should then try connecting it to the pc and try booting up holding down all buttons?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
Have you installed the right drivers on the computer you're using, for ADB and the device drivers, when you unlocked and rooted?

Answer to your question is yes try that. But I wouldn't be disconnecting and reconnecting it, I can't recommend that and then learn tomorrow that static zapped something important.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
yea I am getting nothing by connecting to pc. I have all the drivers adb and fastboot installed when I rooted and unlocked couple weeks back but it looks like device is not being recognized or read at all by the pc.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
connecting to the pc holding the volume + button gets it recognized for a second and tries to install a driver apx but unsuccessfully.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I am not making any progress whatsoever kinda sucks starting the weekend like this. I have gone thru some bad stuff with my atrix but nothing like this were I cant even access my bootloader boot into recovery or even fastboot. Should I try and get it to just stay off and see if overnight it works its own magic? Hate going to sleep witht his on my mind but I think with a clear mind in the morning something good will happen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I can get it to stay off by holding both vol+ and vol- but trying to turn it off with just the power button just keeps it turning back on/off...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
so I slepted on it thru the night let the tablet rest but went back this morning and I still cant get into bootloader or recovery. Is there anything I can do?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
Has anyone else had this problem where they cant boot into recovery or bootloader? It's like the power button and vol keys are unresponsive even though they still work to turn on the device.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
are you sure that you flashed the right recovery? but you should still be able to get the bootloader. are you pressing power + volume down(volume down, not both volume buttons. i noticed you wrote both volume buttons) to get into the bootloader?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I think I chose the right recovery the first version downloaded thru goo manager but it was the 2.2.0 version. I had the option on the of downloading the 2.2.1 zip or the .img but i downloaded the .img to just to flash with the current version of twrp that was working. There have been times were I have not been able to get into recovery on my atrix or htc but I've always been able to get into the bootloader this is the first time I've been locked out of my device kind of got me scared its not even a month old. So you say to get into bootloader you dont have to hold down both volume buttons? I will try again to power back up using the volume down and power button at same time... Wish me luck
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
good luck!

yea, only power button and the volume down button.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
quick question before I connect the battery does it make a difference whether or not I have it plugged in charging or connected to the PC while trying to boot into bootloader?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
it can make a difference. theres a bootloader bug that wont let you boot into recovery from the bootloader if its not connected via usb(sometimes). other than that, theres no difference.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
ok yea i never experienced any problems going into recovery or bootloader with or without usb connected until now but that isn't the problem. I will chime in a few after I give it another go then
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
Fail. It doesn't even seem to be charging which i assumed at first because when its off and I plug it in it shows the battery still full but will shut off right afterwords. I go ahead and try to but up only holding power and vol down but it will continue to pop up google screen once or twice but after holding down the buttons for about a minute it will just stay on the google screen until i repress the power button and It will just continue in this cycle. I cant believe flashing a bad recovery could cause such disaster. I am a little disappointed in myself for not being more careful. I thought it would be safe to download the recovery but I guess either I picked the wrong one I dont know how or something just crashed I guess
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
Cant even get it to turn off at the moment I don't want to continue to keep pulling the battery for fear of frying a circuit as someone mentioned earlier. I was able to turn it off pressing all buttons at the same time a couple times but its hit or miss. I am going to shut it off for now give it a few but so far I have not made any progress... My fantasy teams are going to be ruined this weekened lol. hmm if only I could find any humor in this I would feel a little better
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
messing around with it a little more looks like to get it to permanently shut off and keep it from staying on goggle black screen of death is to hold power and volume up and after a couple of cycles turning on and off it stays off for good.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
well a little bit more experimenting still no luck with doing anything but when I can shut it off and keep it off I notice that when connecting it to the computer it recognizes that something is plugged in but immediately after it makes that sound that something was plugged in nothing shows up no drivers nothing on my computer and its just back to doing nothing. I have been reading through some of the threads and I know I need to be atleast in the bootloader to use fastboot but I am not that experienced using adb which as far as I can tell work hand in hand.

While reading I kept reading that you can use adb to push img kernels etc to the device but again I would need to be in bootloader so that the device is at least recognized by my PC correct? Well atleast I am learning a few things and watching a decent game between UCLA and the Huskers
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
still absolutely nothing. Again I can at least get it to turn off but it's not charging just a blank screen but I plan to leave it plugged in for a good part of the day see if it does anything.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingObiWan:
Have you tried Wugfresh's tool kit for the nexus 7? although it isn't the same issue I had, it is similar. I flashed a rom incorrectly and it was stuck in boot. I used the stock recovery option when not being able to boot and it got me back to stock. I suggest you try it out at least. It mentions that if all else fails, use odin to recover your bricked device.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I have a couple tool kits downloaded just to try and see if it would recognize the device or if I could just flash back to stock but since my pc wont recognize it doesn't work unless there is something I am doing or or something else I have to do since its in bootloop. I have heard of odin but is it like a last resort way to restore? If so how can I use it. I read over on the Gnexus forums that it is used for restoring but I don't know how to implement it on the N7. Thanks for advice gave me new hope
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynnek63:
Not sure if this will help, but when I was unlocking my device, I couldn't get my laptop to recognize my N7 even with the drivers installed. So I connected it to my desktop, installed drivers and it recognized it right away and I was able to unlock with no problems. I haven't tried flashing recovery or ROMS yet, just unlocked and rooted.

You said you had trouble with your Atrix? I had used my laptop to unlock my Atrix and install recovery with ADB and I was wondering if the Atrix stuff had conflicted with the N7 stuff somehow and that is why it wouldn't recognize my N7.

Anyway, worth a shot if you have access to another computer.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
it has all the drivers installed because i rooted and unlocked not too long ago and deleted anything the atrix had installed. I just updated wug's tool kit from 1.5.2 to 1.5.3 going to give it another shot I might have overlooked the options to flashing back and unrooting but I still don't see how I can get it to do anything to my device if it's not being recognized
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
yes nothing has changed with the update I did try to flash stock + unroot but it says I need to get into bootloader which I can't. How can ODIN help?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I retried to install the drivers but doing that just made me delete my Nexus 7 drivers in hopes of being able to reinstall them and have it be recognized by PC but I think to get that nexus 7 driver again I need to be able to connect it which it doesn't since its stuck on the google screen. I am sorry if this is confusing anybody but I think my only hope is using ODIN but I really don't know where to begin.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
also it keeps trying to install this apx driver which looks like it does nothing for me
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clago87:
I read thru some of the threads in the nexus forums and odin still needs me to be able to access my bootloader which I can't. Is there anything that can help me do that? I have tried everything from usb to pc from being connected to the wall charger and stand alone as well but no luck

Got Mine Yesterday (LG Intuition)

Ok so I have been using the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for the last year and love it. However Verizons connectivity in my area sucks and the radio chip used in said device sucks. Runs 20-25 Dbm lower than other phones. So after 4 replacements Verizon let me do and early upgrade and I grabbed the LG Intuition. I LOVE it, the hardware that is. Needs root, LG's flavor of android sucks. The two apps i use the most, Entune for my Toyota and FoxFi are blocked and will not work. Battery took forever to charge but seems to last awhile. Also most automotive chargers even the 2AMP ones...the phone will say its slow charging due to lack of current, but it does charge. The signal strength on this phone is awesome, 30Dbm higher than my nexus and about 3-5 Dbm higher than the Razor MAXX, droid 4, and Rezound. But, I don't like anything LG put on or the bloatware. So the bottom line is this...this phone will be PERFECT rooted and with a vanilla ICS or Jelly Bean.

So, until I can root and flash a vanilla Android this phone is going back. Hopefully soon, i'm going to miss it already.

Install su from developer section on amonra

Flash SuperUser zip package from their site.

[HTC Rezound] DownRiver_Droid:
Go to dwv thread, find sticky roll up thread. Unlock bootloader, root, flash recovery, flash Rom of choice then profit.

This does require knowledge of ADB. S-off is highly recommended.

im unlocking it via htc dev right now but how would i root it next ?

Flash Amon Ra and then either flash a superSU.zip (check my ICS help thread for a lot of the links) or flash Amon Ra then a custom rom of your choice (recommended)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PUTALE:
hi, I did a trade with some here on the XDA for a galaxy nexus. The phone comes with BAMF ROM but I am thinking of returning to the completely stock rom. Since I do not know much information on this phone, I thought I will ask before doing anything stupid.

I am not sure exactly if this is a international or playstore phone (I think it is international) but I do know it is a GSM phone.

Also, it appears to me that the phone is already unlocked (and I think rooted but cannot be sure).

So my question is how exactly should I go through to get the completely stock as I kind of want to try stock JB first. Do I need to relock it and download the image from google (which image as I see there are two version of phone.

I may try different rom in the future so can I just download teh image and flash the rom without relock it? Or I should still lock the phone, flash, unnlock, unroot?

A little bit of background. I am using the phone on T Mobile's network here in the US, so I want to be able to continue using hte phone on the same T MO.

Thanks a lot for all of the helps guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
Link to the step-by-step, amazing, descriptive guide here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PUTALE:
thanks a lot. I follow that thread and I think I have returned the phone to the stock rom.

Quick question, I think my bootloader is still unlocked as when I checked the bootloader, it looks it still says unlocked. Now after I have flashed the stock rom, should I still root it and also install the recovery if I ever plan to play around with the different roms? As of now, when I into recovery, I see the little andrid icon but no selection.

thansk a lot guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If/when you want to root and mess with ROMs, you'll be using a custom recovery like CWM. You don't need to flash it until you choose to do those things.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PUTALE:
thanks. Would I need to root again? The phone is already unlocked (as I did not lock it again). So, I would just have to root and then flash the custom recovery then?

BTW, I notice there's a very nice tool on the sticky that does everything. I am curious if I use that tool and let say choose to unlock it again or root again and such, would that be any issue? Ie, if it's already unlocked and you run unlock again, would that relock, etc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
You can easily root too if you want to in the future

I think you're talking about the toolkit... Me and others here don't recommend using that... Unlocking/locking the bootloader is easy anyways...
