Did you create the nandroid with TWRP? If not you'll have to use CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fornoggg:
Hi everyone,

I'm having overheating issues with the custom ROMs put up in the forums here. It's really frustrating because I love the interface but I can crashes and overheats pretty often.

I was running a rooted i727r with official ICS, I used ROM manager to flash to paranoid android ICS and JB, I also tried liquified (I think that;s what it's called) and everything runs great except I sometimes get overheating (up to 45 degrees celcius) at which point the phone just shuts itself off. And the worst part is that the battery gets super drained when that happens. I have done nothing to trigger and has happened when it was in my hand as well as in my pockets when in sleep mode.

I don't want to run official ICS, so if there is a solution, I'd be really grateful!

Also on an unrelated note, I can't get swype to work on these custom roms, does anyone have an idea?

Thanks in advance!

Use clockwork mod or twrp to flash and if you haven't yet, try your roms with the stock kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Don't use rom manager and do some reading.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fornoggg:
I tried using the CWM, it didn't help. Which version should I have? I was getting the same problem. I wiped everything twice as instructed too.

I tried, but was getting the same problem. I'm glad to read but I don't know where or what to look for. I'll take any advice you may have

Well the stickys AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE would be a start
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
ROM Manager can and will brick your phone if you use it to flash ROMs on a Skyrocket. Read up and learn before doing things like that.

Stay on stock rooted and see if the problem persists. If it doesn't, switch to a TW-based ROM and use the stock kernel. If your phone is still cool, then move with caution into AOSP territory (which seems to be where you want to go) and consider UC'ing/UV'ing AFTER you've read up on them and understand the possible side effects.

my phone gets hot sometimes, but usually when i'm browsing for a while. doesn't seem to be overly hot though but definitely hot to the touch

using CM10 alpha 3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fornoggg:
I don't mean to sound defensive, but I've read all the stickies...they tell me how to do things, not WHY to do things (kinda like a recipe book). I might be ignorant in the technicalities, but I know my way around following instructions. Telling me to just READ is not helping me, telling me WHAT to read or WHERE to go is better, and I'll be glad to read.

I took your many advices and flashed back to the semi-official ICS using the CWM recovery. The overheating and crashing problems are no longer happening, at least not during all of today which is a good sign in my eye. I still don't have an indication why it wasn't working when I used to the ROMs provided in the development section. I follow the instructions to the tee and I still had the problem (even when I used the CWM instead of ROM manager pro).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stoopendis:
I was having severe heating probs. I never let it get so hot that it autoshutdown but I'd do it manually. I found that there was a serious wakelock happening and even while awake media scanner was going nuts. On it's own it just chewed up the battery but combine a high useage app with media scanner and the phone got hot. I ended up doing a stock rom install via Odin, reformatting my ex sd card. It's been good ever since. You haven't been using Zedge by any chance??

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fornoggg:
No it wasn't installed because I loved the roms built in ringtones :) but I did notice that it was taking longer than usual to read the media from the external sd card...do you think it had something to do with that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Could be. Try pulling everything off your sd card and put on your pc. Format the card and put everything back on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eesshoo:
It is the Media card...a couple of my friends have had the overheating issues on their devices. I would suggest formatting the media card on the PC as previously stated. If that fails then try another SD card since it could just be the SD card.

To solve media scanner consume battery during phone start .... Disable media storage via startup manager app and rescan media using f5 media scanner app... Download both from play store.... Help save alot of juice

Please press thanks if helped
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sb0:
I will opt to say that it might be more related to how you are using the phone.

I've ran plenty of custom roms even OC to 1.9ghz but the phone will get hot no matter what with heavy wifi usage or talking I must say.

With that said, the custom rom will most likely not help unless you aim for roms that aim for that kind of purpose.

Others may beg to differ but that's my 2centz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] fornoggg:
Alright, so I did what some of you said and disabled the media storage at start up. The crashes and overheating are fixed! But, now I can't see my pictures that I stopped in the external sd card when I'm browsing for them through my files or through the gallery. I can, however, see them through third party file browsers. It's there a way that I can at least see them them in my gallery? I tried f5 but it didn't work.

Thanks in advance
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Supersonic11:
I just installed ViperXL 1.2.3 with the new Musicbox 3.0 for the HTC One X Evita. The problem is the 'beats' notification does not come up with the quick settings in the notifications. It's fully functioning but it's a pain to navigate to directly when I want to turn it off or switch the effect for playing music on my god-awful car speakers.

I can't post in the dev thread because all I've been doing for two years of rooting is reading....

Anyone know a reason for this or a fix?

Thanks,

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obfucius:
Following GMPOWER's instructions (LINK), I used ClockWorkMod 3.2.0.1 and manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip to successfully root my Nook Color. (It's an original, non-blue-dot model which I wiped clean, re-registered and updated to 1.4.3 before rooting.) After rooting, I had a problem with accessing the Market app, but I gained access by following the "Market has limited visibility" solution in GMPOWER's OP. The Market app updated itself to the Play Store, and everything's working great. So far, so good, and

thanks

to GMPOWER!

I then executed the same process on my son's Nook Color, which I also wiped clean, etc. (It's also a non-blue-dot.) The root process worked, and everything went the same, except that I can't get access to the Market. I've gone through the "Market has limited visibility" solution multiple times, but always get the "An error has occurred. Please try again later." error message. I've gone through 3 cycles of completely wiping the device, reloading to 1.4.3, and rerooting, but without success. Except for access to the Market, it's running fine - that is, I have access to all of his books and apps in the B&N garden, I can run other apps from the drawer, and I can install new apps from B&N's app store. Just can't get it to run the Market. Any suggestions?

Noob apologies if I haven't provided enough information to address the question.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMPOWER:
Hopefully this will get you going again.

Choose "Manage Applications" from the NookColor Tools app

Select the "All" tab

Scroll down to "Market" and select it

Tap "Force stop"

Tap "Clear data"

Tap the back button

Scroll up to "Google Services Framework" and select it

Tap "Force stop"

Tap "Clear data"

Reboot the device

Once started backup, open the "Market" app

Most likely you will see the same problem

Choose "Manage Application" from the NookColor Tools app

Select the "All" tab

Scroll down to "Market" and select it

Tap "Force stop"

Exit back to the launcher

Open the "Market" app again, and this time it should work

Did you happen to update to the 1.4.3 firmware through CWM, or using the stock update process? Throughout the hundreds of times that I have flashed the stock firmware, most all of the market issues have happened while flashing the stock firmware from CWM. One of the best ways to get back to the stock firmware, is to follow the 8 failed boot process, then download the most current B&N firmware from B&N, rename the file to "update.zip," place in the root of the media partition, and turn the screen off.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doncaruana:
Just for my two cents worth of experience...

If you've lost the 8 failed boots for whatever reason, you're better off flashing back to an older stock firmware and then doing the update from B&N to the latest...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obfucius:
Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I haven't made any progress. I've been resetting to stock firmware using the 8 failed boot process, and I've been using the stock 1.4.3 update (not CWM) to bring it current before running MN5. I have also been erasing and deregistering the device from settings before resetting to stock. I've gone through the whole process at least 5 more times since your post, always with the same result. After successfully completing the MN5 installation, I enter the Market app and follow the prompt to link the device to my son's Google account (which reports success), and then when I continue to where I would accept TOS, it gives me the error box. Following the procedure you posted doesn't get me past the error.

By the way, I started out using the same SD card that I used to successfully root my own device. The last time I went through the process to root my son's, I reformatted the card and rewrote it (using Win32DiskImager with the card in my laptop's slot) with freshly downloaded copies of CWM 3.2.0.1 and manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip. No difference.

Sorry to be a pain - any other ideas? Thanks again for any help you can offer.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMPOWER:
It's no pain, I would also like to find out what is causing the problem just in case it come up again in the future. Every time that I have experienced the problem that you are describing, that method has worked to fix it. Download this modified version on MN, and give it a try, LINK. I updated the market version in it try to get past that step, and also included an app called "Market Device Info." Sorry, I hosted it on mediafire, not my googlecode account just so people wont be downloading it, and trying to use it.

Once you have signed into the market, if it fails, open the app "Market Device Info," and check to see that you have a registered androidid. If this version of MN fails again on you, I will attempt to reproduce the problem on my device tomorrow to try to find a fix for you.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obfucius:
That did the trick, thanks! I wiped and reset to stock again, manually updated to 1.4.3, then ran the modified MN5 you provided. After the root completed, I opened the Play Store app, linked to my son's Google account, and it then prompted me to accept TOS with no errors. I've installed a couple of apps, and the only thing I had to do was untick and retick "Allow Non-Market Apps" to convince one of the apps to install. Everything seems to be working great now, thanks again!!

Wipe Clean and Content download

Please pardon this stupid question but I have tried to find a clear answer b4 coming to this thread. I am attempting to root my NC 1.4.3 w/ the Mannoot 5.08.20 and CWM 3.2.01 per the instructions. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494901

The two questions remain are:

1) You must do a complete wipe before installing this package.

What constitutes a complete wipe

2) YOU MUST DOWNLOAD ALL YOUR B&N CONTENT BEFORE YOU CONTINUE,

Is this archive, to a SD or just download books from Library marked New?

Sorry to be a pain but If I screw this up... I'll never hear the end of it from my 'loving' wife.. ;)

TIA
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obfucius:
1. There's a good description of how to do a complete wipe at http://nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM.

2. When I rooted my NC and my son's, I first downloaded all books, magazines and BN apps that weren't marked as archived with BN. In other words, there wasn't any BN content in my library with a "download" link attached to it. That's my interpretation of GMPOWER's instructions, and you should take what I say with a grain of salt, but I haven't had any trouble with accessing content after rooting.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bard77:
I think I'm having a similar problem. I used MN 5.08.20 to root from 1.4.3. Everything rooted fine but whenever I try download an app from the market I get an insufficient memory error. I have tried all of the market corrections stated above. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Use CWM on an SD to wipe cache. Play store uses cache to temporarily store downloaded apps. It may be full.

Edit: I did a little research and Play Store temporarily stores the downloaded file to /data/data/com.android.providers.download/cache as download.apk, download-1.apk, etc. And it installs it to /data/app. So if you somehow have problems with that download location it will say not enough room.

It spit out too many numbers. It gave me a total of 13 numbers. The MSL appears to be only 6, correct? At least it would only let me enter 6 digits for it on the phone.

Anyone know if I can take a 3.5mm to USB cable. Plug the 3.5mm end into my headphone jack on the phone. Then plug the USB end into the USB port on my car stereo, and listen to music that way?

I know there are other ways of listening to music, but I need the answer to this particular question for something more complicated that I'm researching. :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Geordie Lad:
No, can't be done.

And the only way to connect to car is with SGS3 Easy UMS.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] gte460z:
Our phone's 3.5mm headphone jack is TRS (headphone) or TRRS (headphone and mic) only. Devices that use the 3.5mm port as a USB port specifically state that and only support charging and USB data (to put music on the device). You would need a separate device to convert the analog audio out of the 3.5mm to digital and stream it over USB and even then your car's headunit would have to support streaming digital audio over USB. Our phones do support streaming digital audio (USB audio host capability) out the micro USB cable though.

What are the last things you did before the phone doesn't boot anymore?? Was it falling down into water or was it a unsuccessful flash of a new ROM? Or did you pull out the battery while it was booting? If it isn't any hardware fault like corrosion or damaged motherboard you could fix your boot problem in a repair centre with a JTAG devices. They can flash a new bootloader and rom so boot up your phone and could access your SD card. If the motherboard is broken.. sry dude. Maybe a professional data rescue centre could extract the flash drive chip from the motherboard and read it but that would be very expensive...

If you dock the phone into a proper car dock it auto clicks it into car mode, if you plug it into the same power source with a normal cable it doesnt do the same thing. So it has to be a pin configuration in the dock/cable...?

You can config multiple tasks.

For example my setup:

-if it connects to my car stereo via bluetooth, it opens the gps app, and starts to play music

-if it connects to my home wifi, and is at night, it goes to silent mode

-when disconnected from power it turns everything to it previous state

Try to play around with settings, with the right configuration you wont ever need any kind of special dock again. :)
