[HTC One X] Beatastic:
Hello,

I just unlocked my bootloader and installed the new ARHD, not the EB-2, the 9.4.2. After the installtion i let the phone boot up and I installed some apps. After that I decided to install a mode called : "[MODE][AROMA] Beats Mode - Enhanced Beats sound V7 [9/9/12]".

I went through the aroma installer and my phone rebooted, but this time I only see the "HTC quietly brilliant"-screen and then get a black screen. But I can see that the display is on power and not off.

I cant accsess recovery by pressing the power button and volume down. The phone only boots up and get to the black screen.

Please guys help me
[HTC One X] SniperJunkie:
Hi friend, I had the same problem. I was told to hold the power button until the screen went dark black? I know sounds crazy but only sure way of device being completely off. Next whilst holding power hold volume down. Then let go of power. When the menu comes up select fastboot. Connect via USB and issue the clear cache command. Cant remember what it was exactly.... "fastboot clean cache" maybe. Then restart. All should be well. Check google for the command. :)
[HTC One X] Beatastic:
Thanks, now everything is okay. I'm reinstalling the whole rom, hopefully it will work ;)
[General Questions and Answers] LucasSilva:
Hello Guys!

i'm without internet in my phone for some time and I need to download a part of map on Google Maps for offline viewing, but it says that the area is not available for offline viewing. Is there any way (app, modded apk) that makes it available to download the unavailable areas in Google maps?

Sorry if repost, but all the posts that i saw was about the old version, when it was a lab feature.

I am excited about the kindle release tomorrow! Does anyone know how long it took someone to figure out how to root the old kindle? Hope you guys are as excited about this tablet!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Encerspay:
Hopefully not long, because Rooting is a dealbreaker for me, personally.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoundDK:
I second that..

Hear you mate, root and a fully working 4.1 ROM and you can count me in. :D

Noob here, what do I get for going into update mode :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Budniu:
Good question. "Update mode" auto launch automaticaly when you do official update by Zune. If your device can't run this mode, you can launch him manually - that's all (from what I know).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] calli:
Thanks very informative. Can you please answer the following:

1.How do I get out of SPL mode - exit Serial mode

2. If I'm in SPL mode and I plug in USB cable, does this take me directly to USB mode?

3. Do I use vol down button to move between settings?

4. What does APPSPl mean?

5. What does Image CRC mean?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Getting out of SPL: Reboot the phone. Pop the battery if holding power doesn't work. Make sure the phone isn't actually connected and doing anything at the time!!

USB Mode: You'll be switched to USB mode as soon as the USB connection is established. The PC will take a moment to install drivers.

Yes, use the volume rocker to move up and down.

APPSPI: I don't know.

Image CRC: Cyclic Redundancy Check of the firmware image. A basic test against corrupted transfers of firmware flashing.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jojoost:
So I just flashed Marmite 4.5 (with a zip that had worked several times already) on a Miui.US rom, but i forgot to set permissions, so while my phone was on the google screen, I pulled my battery, because I thought that would be the fastest way.. Now my Nexus S doesn't do a f*** anymore.... Me almost crying (not literally). It doesn't even go to the google screen anymore, also not into fastboot, no vibration, nothing.. What to do now? Am I bricked?? I googled a bit, and I found out that the sdcard wasnt mounted corectly, so charging it and trying to boot it again should work, but still, please help me!

EDIT: when in charger, the charging screen doesnt show up anymore as well.. Bwaahhhh

Thanks in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] nitroheadz28:
I bought a used flashed EVO 3D, I activated it on boost and when it comes time to program it- I can't seem to figure out where to go from here.

I can't find any guides or similar scenarios, anyone that can help?

The guy I bought it from told me to update PRL first (which failed), then refresh the phone with this- ##25327# (didn't seem to do anything), and call boost after so they can rest the signal to this phone.

But how do I program it?

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] nitroheadz28:
For a used phone (reactivation) or if the steps above fail:

To be able to begin making and receiving calls, you must turn on your phone, and follow the instructions below.

1. Turn on the phone if not already on

2. From the keypad, enter ##3282#

3. Scroll to Restore and press OK

4. Enter <MSL> and press OK

1. The phone may restart

2. The screen will display Ready and then change to say Boost

5. From the keypad, enter ##<MSL>#

6. Scroll to Edit and press OK

7. Enter <PTN> and press OK

8. Enter <MSID> and press OK

9. Scroll to Done and press OK

1. The phone will restart

2. The screen will display Ready and then change to say Boost

This is my problem, when I hit ##3283# I can view or edit. If I hit edit it asks for a password. What are my options to get through this?

Please if anyone knows I'd appreciate it.
[HTC EVO 3D] bpc4209:
You need to get the MSL code from either Sprint or MSL reader in play store.
[HTC EVO 3D] nitroheadz28:
Thanks bpc!

Whats strange for me is that I know that the previous owner had this phone working, so every time you reactivate it you need to go through this?
[HTC EVO 3D] nitroheadz28:
http://theunlockr.com/2011/07/13/how-to-retrieve-the-msl-code-on-the-htc-evo-3d/

Thats the guide I used. When I get to the last step and hit read, I get an error.

I'm using the default read option, apparently I need to be using the registered version to do the HTC read- but will it make a difference??

What version so you plan on getting the 16gb for $200 or the 32gb for $250?

I'm thinking about getting the 32 for myself. What are your thoughts.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] deaglecat:
16gb is fine for me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] wrexus:
My 16gb is arriving tomorrow and when my 8.9 32gb arrives on Nov 20th I will sell the 7.

The resell value for Kindle fire has been good. I sold my original Kindle fire after 7 months of use and only lost $50.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Encerspay:
16's fine for me. I'm reluctant to order now, though, because I want to wait on wonderful devs to get Play Store and Jellybean onto this thing... then it will be golden :)
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] shook187:
So you saying the play store wont come out the box?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Tig Ol Bitties:
I ordered the 16gb version and it arrives on Friday, Sep 14. For my own purposes, 16gb should be more than enough for local storage with the rest of the content simply being streamed or saved in the cloud.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] pre4speed:
Ill probably go for the 32 but only if it can be rooted/unlocked/custom rom. My personal opinion, but I find the amazon stock is absolutely hideous. Ill wait like I did with my og fire until its confirmed either way.

and the phone with changed imei i buy it at t-mobile netherlands shop
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcaz:
And the other phone?

Regardless, you won't find much help trying to spoof an IMEI.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lobird:
to phone with the original imei i buy at typhone.nl with vodafone contract if u dont believe just dont i want to fix the no service issue
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
No you cannot transplant IMEI numbers since they are encrypted with (amongst others) the device/CPU ID which is unique and unchangeable for all devices. It would be illegal anyway, additionally since you will not be able to use both phones at the same time pointless.

Have it repaired by Samsung (depending on the location and serice center it should cost you some 60-ish $.

Then, wehn you get it back, do the damn EFS backup so you wont have that same issue again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lobird:
okay thanks i have one last question what do i say if samsung ask whats wrong with this phone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaheerali:
Hi, I think your problem is generic IMEI, you can recover your original IMEI by flashing it with stock ROM. Or try to find a repairing shop which have SPT box or Octopus box.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lobird:
the problem is i live in the netherlands and a lot of people in a shop doesn't know much about android
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
flash it back to a stock Rom with Odin. Since you are on xda you should know how to do this with ease. Use the search button.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaheerali:
There are so many posts in this forum to recover corrupted IMEI. One simple method is try to flash it with original stock ROM or in efs folder, rename the 'nvdata.bin.bak' file to 'nvdata.bin' and replace the old one.

First go through the original posts and then try the above methods...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lobird:
thanks i already trying instal stock rom but no luck
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lobird:
here u can see my screen shot of the efs folder .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
Um... I think the OP has some explaining to do - since late August s/he has been posting asking for help to fix IMEI in a number of threads - in fact that has been the ONLY topic/question for all the posts. Previously s/he was in Thailand and now it is 'live in Netherlands' - also one phone has a fake IMEI and the other doesn't yet both have been bought from vendors. One has to wonder why s/he wouldn't simply go back to the vendor and get the stuffed phone repaired? Apparently it IS working, (i.e. not hard-bricked) so it would seem all that is needed is to pay a service fee and 'Voila!' working S3.

Logically this leads to a thought about the legitimacy of the 2nd (and maybe both) phone(s) - 3 weeks of trying many threads to get someone to provide a new IMEI seems a little excessive.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Agree this and the multiple posts is getting very suspicious . Plus not the only post asking to borrow somebody's EFS folder .

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
So I won a bid on ebay about an almost new inc 2 with some problem

The car mode can not be turned off and when there is incoming call, the speaker is always on and under normal conditions apps won't have sound

After a search online, it seems to be a common problem about the usb dock connector, so I ordered a flex connector with usb dock online and replaced the one in my phone and the issues seems gone

Apps can have sound, incoming calls don't turn speakers on by themselves, and the phone doesn't goes to dock mode from time to time.

however, the steering wheel is still on the screen and I cannot get rid off this thing, any thoughts or suggestions? are there any indications the phone is still in dock mode? I've attached a pic about the strange icon. Your input is appreciated.

Another noob question is about the rom. I'm planning to flash this thing to pageplus prepaid, is it still able to get the possible ICS update from verizon? I've browsed the dev section and seems there are few ics or jb roms running on the device perfectly. Or after the phone is flashed to PPC, can I still install third-party roms without problem? I really want a rom that's stock android, i.e, not customized with bloatwares, like the stock rom in nexus phone.

Once again, thanks for your help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Steering wheel icon - LMAO! I have to thank you for this post because I almost pooped myself reading this.

That's the location icon. You can get rid of it by flashing a ROM, assuming you have root. You do realize your phone is in airplane mode as well?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
Ahh, my first turns out to be a stupid one. Then all my worries are solved.

I have optimus t, first gen galaxy tab, and xoom tab now, but never seen this icon that's why

what's the location for? it looked exactly like a steering wheel, if not the one in a car, then the one in a ship.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
What's it for? Hell if I know. If you have the location services turned on in settings, it pops up. It is an annoyance. Most ROMs you will flash have the icon removed or the ability to remove the icon through tweaks or a patch.

I do agree - it does look a bit like a steering wheel.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
I can not turn off the icon, the E911 in location services can not be turned off
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
Someone or me can root the stock rom then you can flash it, don't know about that mobile service but as long as the bands are compatible you should be able to do it. If you want rom without sense Aero has unofficial cm9 and condemned has one based on AOKP both are more pure android with no sense
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dermen:
You shouldn't need to flash the phone for it to work on pageplus. As long as it's a Verizon phone that was not originally sold as a prepaid device it should work as is.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JehC:
Just out of curiousity, how did you screenshot with a stock rom
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
home+power button
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
So I don't have to update the PRL and so on?

I saw there are certain procedures to get message and 3g going
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Uh I think he meant stock, non-rooted ROM, in which case there is no native screenshot function such as home + power.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
I think mine is also stock 2.3

it works
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Are you rooted?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
i don't think so
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Lol. OK.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dermen:
You will have to call *22890 to program the phone, but that is it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] michael3770:
Strangely, it's gone by it self this morning, wired

Maybe it's time to go for an aftermarket rom
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Jizzylax:
Or maybe you've evaded the location tracking service. You may be a ninja.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdcnosse:
I have a 3500mAh extended battery that I bought off Amazon. I forgot the brand name lol but I don't think it matters. Problem is that my NFC chip has stopped working with this battery. I tried using Google wallet at a vending machine that it always used to work, and now it just sits there and shows the wave graphic as it's loading, and never competes the connection.

I'm not sure if I damaged the antenna somehow or if it's possible that the antenna is now dead, because it used to work a couple of days ago and now, nothing. I haven't tried using android beam with another phone yet, or testing it with the stock battery as I'm not home (I'll try those later) but any thoughts are welcome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
does the battery say it has NFC? if not, it will never work

the antenna is in the batteries and without that, NFC will never work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flsocialist:
Funny, mine started doing that after the latest update. It took the .53 left on my google card ok, but I can't get it to charge any of my cards. And I thought it was just me but maybe not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdcnosse:
I'm pretty sure the battery has NFC. The amazon listing said it did, and it was actually working until a couple days ago (probably the latest update)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdcnosse:
Just tested it with my girlfriends GSII, and I can easily send links, youtube videos, maps etc through NFC/Android beam both from my phone and to my phone. So my guess is it's Google Wallet.

[HTC EVO 3D] R3NC0N:
Hi all!

I'm having a very weird issue.

My Recovery (4EXT) was broken (sort of), because it thought that it was january 1st 1:00 1970. After I flashed a new rom (Ubuntuz JB 0.7.2 with fix), it couldn't shut down, or reboot (to recovery) properly. It just showed the shutdown animation, but was still active (holding volume down vibrates phone (vibrate mode)), pressing power button locks screen, and pressing it again just keeps showing the shutdown screen.

Then I tried reinstalling my Predator nandroid, which failed at first (couldn't boot), then I fixed permissions, and cleared cache and dalvik, and it could finally boot normally (updating apps thing in the beginning). Then, when I wanted to reboot to recovery, it was stuck on the shutdown animation... Again...

I tried reflashing the rom again, I cleared dalvik+cache, fixed permissions, and it's still stuck at shutdown...

Solutions anyone? (a)
[HTC EVO 3D] sammael1069:
Try the TWRP recovery 4EXT gave me issues to. You need to flash another recovery and wipe system, boot, cache, then flash rom again. Here are the two clockworkmod recovery .img flash in fastboot
[HTC EVO 3D] R3NC0N:
Reflashed the rom again, now I'm stuck at the white HTC bootscreen ¬¬
[HTC EVO 3D] R3NC0N:
Okay, it seems I can't properly install any roms anymore...

I replaced the reccovery with TWRP, but I'm still having the reboot problems.

Then I tried installing a different rom, which didn't even boot (HTC screen bootloop), and then another one, and I still had the same problems...

I don't know what to do, desperately looking for help!
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
Did you try to format everything but sdcard in 4ext?
[HTC EVO 3D] R3NC0N:
I tried that as well.

But I fixed it, finally!

I reïnstalled the firmware via bootloader, and now it finally works again!

Thanks for all your help though!
