[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] keithross39:
Hi there, I've been attempting to get an audiable tone sorted out for when I connect my charger. I've selected one of the cyanogen 'ogg' tones from notifications, re named it 'Charger_Connection', copied and pasted it into system>media>audio>UI and fixed permissions to "rw-r--r--" then rebooted.......

all without success......

Am I doing something wrong?

Are the permissions correct?

Is the file correctly renamed?

Is the file in the correct location?

Or is it that CM9b3 is not compatible with this/doesn't support it?....

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] keithross39:
The way I see it, is there has to be some code/programming that associates the action (plugging in the charger) with the relevant sound. Has this 'code' been written into the ROM?.... I'm no software engineer so I could be wrong.....is there anybody who can verify what I've suggested and check to see if it's present in the ROM if I'm right?.....

If you want a tone for charging and discharging i suggest you use a third party apps like battery doctor...
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] keithross39:
Thanks for the idea fella....but I'd really prefer it if I didn't have to install an app that I'll otherwise NOT use......

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mzr07:
Hi guys.

My sister has a s3 (4.0.4). She wanted me to update it. (OTA not available). The phone is on 3 (UK). So i plugged it in kies and started to update it. After it had finished i turned the phone on and to my surprise it was asking for an unlock code! I was confused because it was working before the update. What made it even worse was that it hadnt updated to jellybean rather it was still 4.0.4. I was baffled.

So i decided to root it then do an unlock. This worked fine however i don't want the root for my sister as she is not into all this stuff. So i checked online if i could unroot. The only option i found was to a factory reset!. I can't do that as my sister will kill me. So now I'm stuck. Kies won't recognise my phone because its rooted. So what do i do??? I cant update it till its unrooted so I'm stuck. :(

Can you please tell me if there is any way round this. And how can i get jelly bean?.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skander1998:
keep it rooted and hide the root apps from the app drawer, that way your sister won't use them / mess the phone up.

Only other way is a factory reset + stock reflash i guess. :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saywhatt:
Well if you reeeally want to unroot, then install triangleaway first and do the "traditional steps of removing the binary count".. and then just flash a firmware from sammobile.com :)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] art_arev:
Rooting doesnt stop KIES from recognising your phone. It doesnt stop you from updating via KIES. After updating you will lose the root. You are doing something wrong. Also ...your phone is carrier locked so after the update you will have to unlock it again. There are different ways /software for unlocking ....choose a permanent way.....then flashing will not affect your unlock status

Cheers
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
If you don't want to be rooted, buy an unlock code from your network.

The software methods all require root.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Striatum_bdr:
There is no reason to suddenly need an unlock code after a firmware update...

I would check the right version if the Rom you installed.

Unroot is not very complicated, it's mainly erasing the su binary in /system/bin I think and uninstalling super user app.

Otherwise like someone said above if you flashed the wrong boot loader, although I think it checks it I'm not sure, or maybe a corrupted one then yeah your baked. But otherwise you pretty much can't break it

'fastboot erase boot' erases kernel, not bootloader. Try erasing it. The device will boot up to fastboot mode, directly.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
this is the maguro/toro/toroplus forums.

even so, even erasing bootloader, it should be possible to recover it through omapflash. i don't think erasing the bootloader can be called a brick. if you erased it, it means you can write it again. corrupting emmc would be what i call a brick.

and on grouper, it will probably will be possible to use nvflash, if it's not available right now.

Hi everyone, I bought this phone on ebay locked with AT&T and the seller send me the unlock code to use it with another SIM card.

The thing is that he send me a wrong code and my 10 attempts ran out.

I started to search in google and here in the forums of xda and asking questions (no one reply sadly). After six hours or more I managed to find a solution for this problem and I found that changing the baseband of the phone will work.

I tried several basebands and did not work.

Then I fond this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1784709 (credits for mattman86)

I followed the tutorial until "Flashing AT&T Stock ROM (2.3.5 or 4.0.4)" there I replace the ".img's" of this pre-rooted ICS ROM http://mattman86.smashtext.com/ROMs/Stock%20AT&T%20ICS/IMG_Files/V20c_IMG.zip exept the baseband and voila! unlocked pre-rooted ICS phone with korean baseband! didnt ask for code or anything.

If someone can make a flashable ROM but with the korean baseband will help the people with the same problem I had.

And you don't have to buy an unlock code!

Hopefully this poorly made guide helped someone and please forgive me for my bad English. Greetings!! ::)

Is there any way to disable the shutter sound? I just picked up a Photon Q for my wife and I, and this sound is loud and annoying. I don't want to root the phone yet, and would like to keep the stock photo app. I tried the Enforced Stream Silencer app, but that didn't work. Any ideas?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] robbi24r:
As far as I know that's negative.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
You could use a crappy app like "Uva Silent Camera Free"...

Not a good solution, I know. I was kinda surprised when placing the phone on 'silent' didn't do a damned thing to that really loud camera shutter sound...

Otherwise, if you could mount /system R/W you could easily 'fix' this issue :p

Yea, if you have root... it's a very effective method ;)

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] drexappeal:
I don't have the Photon anymore, but there is an apk somewhere on this board that is called Enhanced Silencer. That worked perfectly on my Photon and didn't require root.

I should say that it did work for the regular Photon, but not sure 'bout the Q.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
[Q] "The application is not registered" error when I launch kindle reader. Ugh.

Very few search results for this error, so I'm out of ideas. It has come up once before but the thread is closed -->

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1356441

My reader worked fine for 8 months. Then it updated to version 3.7.0.108.

Now when I click any of the "tabs" such as home, archive, on device, etc... I get this:

"The application is not registered. Trying to register it now. Please try again in a few seconds..."

No book will open, I get an "Invalid Item" error and it suggests I redownload it.

I have a rooted 1st generation KF with GoLauncher on it and ...I dunno if it's a custom rom or what.

I get a blue kindle fire logo when I first power up. I just installed the recommended stuff with the Kindle Fire Utility.

Fixes I've tried:

1. Restarting the device

2. Force stopping the app, then clearing the cache.

3. Going to the play store and choosing "Uninstall". The problem is, this doesn't really uninstall the app, it says something like "this will uninstall all updates to the kindle reader". If I go to settings --> applications, the option to fully uninstall is grayed out.

After doing the google play 'uninstall', the device freezes if I try to launch the reader.

4. Manually reinstalling/updating via the google play store. Now it launches and the device doesn't freeze, but I still get the errors. Also my books are gone but that's no biggie.

I also called tech support. They had me unregister my device from settings --> My Account... and eventually re-register it.

They also had me clear cache. Then those things didn't work they elevated me to level 2 tech support.

I foolishly mentioned I had the go launcher installed, they refused to help any further and insisted the 3rd party launcher was the cause of the problem, and my only fix is to factory reset and stick to the stock software.

So, if you made it this far, thanks for listening... now what?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitarman:
If you have Root Explorer (or equivelent) for access to system apk files, you could try deleting that app from the /system/app folder, restart the device, go back to the system apps, paste another copy (or version) of that app in there and set permissions to match the other apks in the folder, reboot and hope it might correct the issue. It sounds like a software glitch from the getgo even on un-rooted devices.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
howdy, thanks for the idea.

I have root explorer and root access, but when I go to rename or delete anything in that folder, I get "the file cannot be renamed because the file system is read only".

Also, I'm only assuming it's the app called "Kindle for Otter" which is the only one with the traditional kindle reader icon of a dude under a tree reading.

Is there an alternative reader that's still very convenient? Like I don't have to download books via USB or anything, it just monitors the appropriate folders and my freshly-purchased books appear in the list?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitarman:
You must just be rooted and not have any custom ROM installed otherwise you could mount the system/app folder as r/w, meaning you probably don't have Superuser installed? Superuser is supposed to be installed when you root the device with the Kindle Utility but I couldn't get it to do it. Since you are rooted then you could try the MoDoCo ROM as it is based on Amazon's own 6.3.1 software and includes the Kindle Reader, Amazon app store and everything that is included with the stock software. In addition it includes the Google services framework and Playstore so you can have the best of both worlds, Google and Amazon. It runs much better than stock and I just flashed it onto my wife's Kindle and she is pretty satisfied with it.

There are plenty of decent reader apps and my suggestion would be try many different ones until you find a suitable one. :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitarman:
Yes that is true but if Superuser (or equivelent) isnt present it doesnt work to well
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
Well, the mountR/W thing worked, and since then I've gone through a bunch of stuff.

And I'm back to square one. But read anyway if you're bored.

I'm a the point where I could reluctantly nuke everything and start over, I guess that would involve reflashing the rom

and reinstalling all apps?

Here's what I've tried:

• Replaced kindleforotter.apk, set permissions, and rebooted, when the kindle came back up it went straight to the stock launcher... weird.

Maybe cuz GoLauncher coincidentally updated.

• At this point I should click that APK, right? But, curious, I went to my books tab.

All my books are there but missing covers. Some have a down arrow/download icon, others don't.

• 4 books without the icon successfully redownloaded after an error, and were readable.

Sadly these are all older books and the other 20 or 30 books would not do anything when tapped.

• Next I tried reinstalling the app by clicking the kindleforotter.apk I downloaded. It reinstalled, I rebooted,

clicking the shortcut still doesn't work but I went back to the books tab in my kindle launcher.

Now, none of the items launch. The "Invalid Title" items give that error again, but this time they do not redownload.

• I tried removing everything from sdcard/Books and sdcard/Kindle and rebooting. Now only those 4 'lucky' books show up.

But they no longer open when tapped. Looks like it's trying to launch the reader but it crashes.

• Tried manually resending the latest book to my kindle via Amazon's website. It didn't show up.

• So I clicked Sync under my settings icon, and that really hosed it. The kindle launcher would infinitely crash and reopen.

• Since that's worse than the original issue I just updated the reader via the play store, getting myself back to square one.

Thanks if anyone has any other ideas... or some less painful way to reinstall this app completely without wiping out everything.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitarman:
Sounds like a big mess.....you might just have to start over from scratch. At least that "should" clear up the misc. errors you're receiving. You'd have to re-root if but that process is simple. Reinstalling apps might take a little time but would be worth it if it corrects the issue. The Kindle's stock software (or any software) is not immune to undesirable performance.

One basic correction attempt with software and operating systems is to wipe it clean and re-install. I've had many PCs that had to be wiped and the OS re-installed to fix messed up stuff. Usually we try to re-install apps first to see if it corrects it......sounds like you've already done that.

You could always just find an alternative reader :)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
Howdy... I went ahead and tried support one more time (sometimes you get lucky) but they had no ideas other than a factory reset. I'm gonna look into modaco.

edit: on the off chance you come back to this thread,

I factory reset, installed modaco via TWRP, have one problem.

Books work fine. But I can't access my apps.

When I click the "Apps" tab at the top, the screen flashes briefly and then I'm right back to the usual home screen

(aka the default kindle launcher screen).

I seem to remember a notification (with an amazon icon) about pending app downloads, in the bar at the top.

I skipped over it to check on my books. Now it's gone, and I can't get it back or view a list of apps on the system.

What gives?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guitarman:
That's odd......I never experienced that with MoDaCo. Did you wipe everything before you flashed MoDaCo (cache, dalvik, factory reset and system)? There were slight bugs with MoDaCo I noticed but nothing like that. Try reflashing but dont wipe sd card
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
I'll see if I can do that. One worry I had... I see modaco is offered in more than one place, and seems to have some options with the installation...

can you point me to a specific zip file that you know for sure is a good working one? Otherwise, I'll assume my zip is good but my wipe wasn't. I just factory reset and never messed with dalvik and the rest, I'm guessing that's all important...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mochamoo:
I had the same problem. Solved it by going back to an earlier version of the app.3.6.0.87.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CreeDo:
Hey, just wanted to thank you, I reinstalled modaco, but first did the cache wipe and dalvid wipe from the TWRP menus. Apps tab works fine now. Books too.

So far only one minor hiccup... the apps I had formerly installed via GoLauncher. I logged into google play, redownloaded one of them (DrawSomething) and specified that it send the app to my Kindle Fire from the dropdown. It gave me something like "this app will be installed shortly". But I never got anything... no download, no notification. Did it a second time and same deal. Eventually I downloaded it from the Amazon app store, but I'm worried apps from Google Play won't work easily anymore.

Do you know what I should do if I need an app from Google Play?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjegers:
Had same problem

In case it helps anyone else. I had the same problem. Turns out that the google play store (which remember doesn't come standard with a Fire) had updated the Amazon Kindle application. I went into the play store and uninstalled (un-updated) the Amazon Kindle app and then everything worked.

Good Luck!
