Get fastboot from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1527159

Hope that you've installed all drivers from flashtool. Else, get it from here. Install it, and get the driver package from C:/flashtool/drivers.

Copy, and paste the kernel.elf file to fastboot folder.

Hold down shift, right click and select Open Command Window Here.

Type in "fastboot flash boot kernel.elf"

Before pressing enter, switch off your phone, hold vol up, and plug in your phone. The transparent bar turns blue.

Hit enter, and the process completes in around 0.840 secs ;)

Regards.

When trying to do it with 'Flashtool' i cant select the .elf file.

When trying to do it with a command line i get this:

"error: cannot load 'keiran-st25-recovery.elf': No error"

?? :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] babu.rajiv2007:
Flashtool cannot flash kernel.elf, just kernel.sin

You sure you placed the kernel.elf in the same folder as fastboot.exe is?

Did you try Flash mode for flashing stock ics ? Or try to enter fastboot mode and change to another kernel for solving %0 problem ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nx Biotic:
Im trying to get this recovery on my Xperia U. But, the flash tool force closes upon device booting in fastboot mode.

Im running Ubuntu 12.12. Could it be possibly the version of Java im running? Not very familiar with the Sony Android Hardware and Flash tools
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] felipevsw:
Are you running open-jdk or Oracle's jdk?

You should run Oracle's jdk.

Install it from here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nx Biotic:
I believe open-jdk

Alright, il check it out later, Figured it was the problem
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thebrainkafka:
Use fastboot
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nx Biotic:
"When I booted the device in fastboot mode, the flash tool would force close."

;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] felipevsw:
I think he is trying to say that you also could use the command line (on a terminal) fastboot command that comes within Android SDK.

Like this:

./fastboot flash boot keiran-recovery.img
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nx Biotic:
i said screw the tool and flashed it manually through adb. should of done it the first time round lol.

thanks for tips guys.

do you have any intentions of fixing the usb mount??

cause it can be a savior for bricked devices(in case)

Like if it is in a boot loop and some one doesnt have update zip in their memory it is a pain in the ass to turn on a pc download flash tool, download an ftf, flash that, then again in fast boot flash cm9?

its just too long process!!!!

Please try your best to fix the usb mount!

For those having my same issue ( i.e: phone not working anymore ) just flash stock ICS Sony Xperia U rom ( ftf file ) with flashtool and then you can go flash again this recovery.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Snow_fox:
I know LG claims that the Optimus G has better battery life but, I'm kinda surprise that 3rd party reviewers haven't jumped on the opportunity to perform similar test.

Anything I may just be missing I should see?
[LG Optimus G (International)] ock:
Waiting for Anandtech's. There were a few reviews that quoted several battery life results, but they do not standardize the brightness levels. Engadget and Laptopmag did some tests if you are interested.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Snow_fox:
I'm interested in getting to read as many different reviews of the battery life as possible.

I saw a number of places saying it sucks providing no numbers what so ever.. It was just "Didn't seem to last long.." without ever saying how long the screen was on or whatever else.

While you always have to take what manufacturers say with a grain of salt, I feel like they have to have some ground to stand on to make the claims they made.

Oke

I'm using mod CM10 4..1.1 NK111 version 0810 kernel 2.6.35.14 without any problem for daily use, even 5MP photo's no problem.

But I'm trying to get a working CM10 4.1.2. with a kernel 3 on my DS

I've installed several ROMS from NK111, Flinny, BlindDump al with the same problem no sound during out going or in coming calls

I've flashed several hboots 0.98 eng, 2.00 eng, 7.00 no result. I've flashed several radio's 20.4801.30.0622U_3622.10.08.04,

20.71.30.0833U_38.31.17.00.16_M, 20.76.30.0835U_38.31.19.00.110 no result. All with and without the sound fix from BlindDump and

other solutions from members with the same problem, like the one to plug in en plug out the headphone and several reboots nothing works.

For testing the ROMS I do a clean install. I folow the treats on de development deparment about the problems from CM10 4.1.2 kernel 3,

I'm aware of the problems but my quention is: have I missed somthing to get the call sound working?

[HTC Desire S] HypnoCondor:
I read that you have the same problem with the latest ROM versions.

I think that it is a small problem but we don't see the solution yet.

The use of different manufacturers for the production of the DS is an extra stubble

to make a universal ROM.

One of the thinks i will try is to change the recovery from TWRP to CMW to see if there

is an installation fold from the ROMS.
[HTC Desire S] Raphael1984:
I have changed my radio: no effect

I have changed recovery from cwm to 4ext: no effect.

I have changed my rom from jb to sense4 (fallout): this was the last thing for a daily use phone at the moment........

if the small bugs are ready fixed then i go back to jb......
[HTC Desire S] HypnoCondor:
Oke I've changed my recovery from TWRP to CWM installed some ROMS indeed no result

I also tried the MigSaga-v0.1-BLINDNDUMB kernel with a even worse result. No sound at all,

but we're keep on testing. I'm certainly not going to stock!

I am replacing my g s iii sound files, I hate every last one of them. Where do I put my own alarm sound files for the clock app? I have tried putting them in phone/system/media/audio/alarms but it does not recognize them even after rebooting. I put ringtones and notifications in phone/system/media/audio/notifications and phone/system/media/audio/ringtones and those work fine but alarms does not.

I have also tried placing them in phone/alarms, phone/media/audio/alarms, and phone/sounds

Its said that ROCK cases are quality made. It's a good, and well recognized brand. I was going to get one before I got my Terrapin case. And as for the style of the case, that's the most common one you'll find. They're light weight and provide great protection for your tablet. good for on the go if you're carrying it in something such as a laptop bag. I'm planning on getting a case in that style for portability, so if you decide to go for it, let me know what you think? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] RickyJassal:
Hi all,

Couple of questions if you can help at all?

I opted to buy the Galaxy Tab Plus as a wedding present for my brother on the basis of it having an IR Blaster. However, the one I received doesn't have it and it is definitely the above model. I've bought it through a UK website (Pixmania), checking bothered US and UK variants they both should have it. The only country I've found that doesn't have it is Canada and that's adhoc!

Next, in my attempt to update to ICS as well Samsung Kies isn't going beyond the latest firmware for 3.2, which is making me think even more it's an international model as I believe ICS has been rolled it to all of Europe.

I've raised it with Samsung and Pixmania in the hope of resolving, but thought I'd ask the forum if anyone else has had similar issues.

Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] scagnetwork:
Hi

I got the model from future shop in canada but we don't get ISC update officially for the gt-p6210
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] RickyJassal:
Thats the strangest thing, Canada is the only country that I've found through the web that has these missing.

Annoyingly I've know no idea how to check what region it belongs too!

I've raised it with both Samsung and Pixmania and will report my findings.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
The IR blaster is region specific and is also missing from some European and Asian models too as its not compatible with their electronics, its not just Canada. The only way to be sure you get one that has it is to get a U.S. P6210.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] thghost:
Nope, The Asian models have it too.. the official international model is - GT-P6200 and it has IR blaster as well..

Canada is not the only country left without ICS, even Australia hasnt received official ICS support yet.. :(

but it doesnt matter, we have XDA to help us out for that.. :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
This is my second note and I flashed many UCLF6 based roms with no problem. But when I flash a CyanogenMod based rom the rotation sensor instantly breaks what I mean is you have to tilt the phone like 45 degrees to the right to make it think it is start up and down. This makes games that use the rotation sensor impossible to use. I have tried restoring from my TWERP backups and I used Odin to get back to stock all with no improvement in the rotation sensor.

This is partly me warning you about the possible effects of flashing a CyanogenMod based rom and partly me asking for help on fixing my phone. I know this is not a common problem but it has happened on two phones for me, any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Roger

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bhaskell:
WTF are you serious?

I have flashed about every ROM that has been dumped on here for nearly a year. Granted some of them have not been stellar, but none of them have every "Broken" anything on my phone. I'm not really sure that is even possible. I'm have been running CM9 and CM10 as my daily drivers for about the last 6 months and I play lots of games and all of my sensors function as their supposed to.

Before you go pointing fingers at a ROM or anything else, you need to have more information to backup your accusations.

Too FN funny!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] alperin1:
I have to agree, it not the ROMs as I have installed more than I can remember and I have yet to see any hardware break.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vanemburghj:
Which verison of CM are you running?

If you are running Jelly Bean, yep there are problems as they are just crunching the un-official leak every night to get at a release candidate. If you are running Ice Cream Sandwhich based CM 9 than you need to look at your phone. I have left numerous times and always come back to CM 9 because it is stable and smooth.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
All I can say is this is the second phone where I flash CM then the rotation sensor is screwed up no matter how many wipes, restores and different rom flashes I do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
Have you calibrated the gyroscope?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
So you should stop flashing phones I guess. The rest of us will continue on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
I have calibrated the gyroscope, but it must be the accelerometer that is messed up. Any one know how to calibrate the accelerometer?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schtuka:
I was very happy and without issues on FJ's ICS but after flashing SlimBean and back my gyroscope is not working and I have same rotation issue. So, no it is not isolated issue. Noone is pointing fingers, but fact is still there. I am right now trying to figure out how to get back to working gyroscope.

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

gyroscope is just seats in the center and if you dial *#0*# in sensor test the dog locks into landscape. I also flashed different kernel thinking it was a kernel issue without change.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
Interesting I am not alone. And for the record I have never flashed slimbean
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schtuka:
No, you are not alone. I just flashed ICS stock leak available and still no gyroscope. Landscape locks till you turn off the screen. I am not sure how to fix this as I am still looking for solution. Is it software or kernel or something.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
I have the exact same symptoms. I guess I will head to the att device support center and get a replacement again. And I will never flash a CM based rom on a note again, what a shame.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
I've flashed cm based ROMs both on cm 9 and cm 10 and flashed to other non-CM based ROMs and I'm not having any of those issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rogsoccerman:
Well at least two of us are and I don't know why.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schtuka:
My gyroscope was fine on FJ's ICS. Before Slimbean I never tried JB based or CM based ROM. I just went through long way of restoring again to stock and then upgrading to official ICS UCLF6 via Kies and no go. Still gyroscope ball seating in the center and I get locked in landscape evry turn of the phone. Test again shows PASS but I can tell something is screwy as my Scribble is just not working.

It drives me nuts.

Same. hopefully you can get a warranty replacement like I will.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] king71st:
I had the same issue i was freaking out because i dont have a warranty i dont even know what gyroscope is i turned it off and now my phone rotates just fine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drnecropolis:
So far, 2 users (and a third that was able to correct it).. that makes this a very isolated event. I wouldn't make the leap to say it was the RoM.. I would say it was more than likely a hardware issue on the phone(s)..

While it does seem unlikely that it would end with the same result 2 times in a row, my brother in law has had 5 ps3's and I still have my original.. there are lemons out there of each item, sometimes you get unlucky and end up with 2 of them..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schtuka:
I understand what you are saying and I am not looking to point a finger. I am looking for solution, help. Why is the gyroscope test passes, but issue persist. Is it hardware issue as you said or software. I hope it is software. Is there a possible way of fixing it as have seen some rotation fixes for other phones, something to do with drivers.

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 PM ----------

Can you tell the process before and after? What did you do to create this issue and what did you do after to find it fixed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drnecropolis:
Not sure my man..

Software issues are possible with conflicts to other things running or settings.. but if reverted back to stock and these issues are still present, then I would be 99% sure it was a hardware failure somewhere..

To the guy that was able to fix the problem, I know this isn't ideal, but have you tried and been successful in recreating the issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] schtuka:
well, I gave up after rooting stock and trying Paranoid. Called ATT and they are sending refurbished replacement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drnecropolis:
Nothing wrong with that at all..

Having one that doesn't function properly is a major pain.. no reason to suffer with it..

Settings>advanced>sensors uncheck use calibration data thats worked for me havent had a issue since
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
That's horrible..I will say from my experience only...its happened to me many times..Seems to float around kinda?. It won't stick vertical? and takes it almost sideways to be the corrected?

I have learned that the sensor after time re-calbrates its self so to speak..I would turn on/off auto rotation a bunch of times kinda tricking the system.And re-calibrate the senors and turning them on/off helps..Usally worked for me...that's a software issue and can, and will correct itself when restoring what ever last backup or rom you once used. No need to go thru all the trouble of taking a phone back next time..

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

Also not sure,But seems to have user fault to this story..As I have saud I had 2 notes and flashed every rom here least 2-4 times...even duplicating the symptoms and it self corrected itself...the supposed (harware issue)...How can you have 2 phones with same problem...The chances are slim to none like 1-million....just my opinion..

Anyone else with gyroscope ball not moving ?

Update:

Went to AT&T Device Center. 2 of their Notes had same thing and 2 SGSIII they had also with same gyroscope ball not moving. Ball in the center. I guess it stop moving after ICS.
