[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheWeezel:
Since Thursday morning I have been having issues with my Droid Bionic after Verizon did the OTA update to Android 4.0.4 System version 6.7.246.

The initial problem was that after the OTA installed my phone was bricked. After many attempts to bring it back and my bosses being rather unhappy that I no longer had a phone I went through the warranty/insurance and they sent me a new phone the next day. Now I of course need to root it. I have tried all the Razor's Edge based roots I could find on both a 32 and 64 bit Win 7 system with the latest drivers as found on the Motorola website. The Razor's Edge systems (ADB.exe specifically) don't seem to find my device so they don't move forward (Figured that out by copying out the individual commands from the Batch file to see where it stops). I just tried downloading and using the Motofail on these forums and after downloading it says that it won't run on my system.

Has anyone else been having these kind of issues when you updated OTA or have been trying to root? I do know when I talked to Verizon the rep had said she had already covered two calls about odd behavior after the update. I find it very funny though that I haven't had such issues when I upgraded my Nook Color to ICS.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Obsidian_soul:
Have you tried this http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/4730-samurihls-house-of-bionic-faq/. It should work.

Sent from my Redtide Bionic
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheWeezel:
Ok I just want to make sure I am on the right page. The House of Bionic method will push out an update to 246 which already includes root access? Rereading my previous post I realize I may not have made it clear that with the replacement phone the OTA update did work so I am on 246.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] PerfectlyFlawed:
I could not get Razor's Edge to work on my new laptop(W7 64bit) but Motofail worked perfectly. Have you tried it?

.::Bleh::.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheWeezel:
Not yet. I know I had issues downloading it and when I tried to run it I was informed that it wouldn't run on my computer but that was only on the 32 bit computer so I have yet to head back home and try on a 64bit. Also I am not 100% sure of a good download location, I seem to remember hitting a lot of incorrect ones including one from the developer that said it was a defunct method.

As I said for this rooting my luck has been a whole lot of bad.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] PerfectlyFlawed:

Bionic after updates goes back to previous owners account

Hello, not sure if I'm posting in the correct place but I need some help. I purchased my bionic on ebay about a year ago. My service is through pageplus. After receiving updates the phone reverts back to the previous owners info and will not work for me. I then have to have it flashed, which has been done 4 times now. Last night was the most recent. Everything is working for me fine but when I look at about phone and status its still showing the previous owners phone no. and min. but when dial the program codes it shows my no and min. Can I fix this and how can I get it to stop reverting back..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] ishmael345:
I am so sorry to read that this is happening. I am not 100% sure but it sounds to me like the phone was never de-registered after it was activated with your current service. I would think that doing a system restore back to stock and then going through the motions of re-registering the phone to your account and service provider may work. The only other thing I am able to think of is that it may have been rooted to the original owner and they never un-rooted it and de-registered prior to selling it.

Hope this gives a better idea or maybe some one else whom knows more then I will respond.

Gl,

Cheers ....

Is anybody else excited for this feature? I'm sure we'll get the 4.2 update within the next few months.

I know it's more of a novelty feature, just like panorama mode, but it would be fun to use imo.

Once this feature is widely available, I think Google should allow people to add their Photoshere photos to google maps.

you can add them to google maps. which is close enough or exactly what you meant.

[HD2 General] chrisman99:
I have a plan to possibly use my hd2 as a covert camera recording video onto an external hard drive, does anyone know if this would work? Theoretically it seems straight forward but on connecting my USB hard drive with a micro to usb otg cable the hard drive doesn't start up like it does when connected to my nexus. Is this simply because I need some software/ app that makes it recognise it or does the hardware simply not support this?
[HD2 General] HypoTurtle:
Would depend on OS running on phone and filesystem of hard drive.

With android it should be fine if you use rick's usb host kernel and the hard drive is powered externally, with the only issue being that the phone won't charge until you change to another kernel (or rom).

There is probably also a way for the video footage to be saved to the hard drive while being attached to a laptop using a file share or something similar.
[HD2 General] chrisman99:
At the moment I think its just on stock windows 6.5. So is this not compatible? What would be best to use, I've never really had a lot of luck with android rooms on it stability wise. Would I also be able to charge the phone from the USB cable as it would eventually just run down.
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
I'm no technician or anything, but wouldn't the hard drive need external power? OTG power from HD2? I don't think that would be enough for a hard drive.

You can try a powered USB hub. Or, what about a 64GB sd card?
[HD2 General] chrisman99:
Yeah the hard drive has got a power cable that I intended to use. You need to. Was trying make this work from what I already had, not to buy another SD card

[Microsoft Surface] danielsjt:
Greetings all,

When trying to reset or refresh my Surface RT, I receive the following error:

Could not find the files needed

If you have a Windows installation or recovery media, insert it and restart the PC from the media.

Obviously, the Surface RT comes with no such media, so I'm unsure what to do. I think there was a way to fix this error on Windows 8 by moving the install.wim file over and doing some command line entries, but given I can't find an install.wim for RT, that doesn't seem to be possible.

I can confirm that per Disk Management, the recovery partition is there, as is the EFI partition and the main Windows partition. I was able to do this procedure once successfully, but when trying to do it again, I am unable to do so due to the error.

-Justin
[Microsoft Surface] mk1151:
I don't know if this will be of any assistance but I did find this page that has a slew of details:

http://www.microsoft.com/Surface/en...vice-and-recovery/windows-rt-stops-responding

If you follow the instructions to get a recovery key it might help you somehow. I'm really just grasping at straws because it is so new...

Good luck and please post here if you resolve the issue. It might help others.
[Microsoft Surface] danielsjt:
Yeah, tried that, my boot options in there are Continue to Windows RT, Boot (with options for hard drive and USB), and shutdown.

It's all quite bizarre. I expect I'm just missing some file somewhere that points it to the recovery partition.
[Microsoft Surface] danielsjt:
Could someone with a Surface RT open up an admin command prompt and run reagentc.exe /info, and reply with the output?

That may get me back on track, since that should output the details for Recovery.
[Microsoft Surface] Andrmgic:
here you go.

Hope this helps you out.
[Microsoft Surface] danielsjt:
Well, some minor progress. ReAgentC fails, but it looks like my C:\Recovery folder is empty from seeing what a proper info output is above. Anyone willing to zip that folder up and post it for me? Its a hidden folder, not sure what the size is, but mine is definitely empty. I believe the files in that folder tell Windows where the recovery partition is located.
[Microsoft Surface] xray84:
Did you find a solution for that problem? My Surface experiences the same issue, after having succefully restored it the first and only time yesterday.
[Microsoft Surface] apatcas:
the way to get in recovery is pretty easy....

plug in a usb keyboard... hold shift on it after being detected and hit power-> restart.

Hope this helps and dont forget the thanks button.
[Microsoft Surface] xray84:
Thanks for the answer, but this only brings me to the advanced startup screen where I have the choice between "Continue", "Use a Device (either USB, Network or Windows Recovery DVD)" or Shutdown PC. The second option only offers me the choice between "Hard Drive" and "USB Drive".
[Microsoft Surface] apatcas:
you dont have a 3rd option to reset?
[Microsoft Surface] xray84:
Unfortunately not :/

I also do think, that it might be the empty c:\Recovery Folder that causes the Problem. So if anybody could provide the content (as a zip) of this folder to me, I would highly appreciate that :)
[Microsoft Surface] mk1151:
Out of curiosity, does this work?

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee692045(v=surface.10).aspx

(Beginning with step 2)
[Microsoft Surface] apatcas:
Thats a really old article referring to Microsoft Surfate... the table top.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
I don't have a C:\Recovery Folder on my Surface, if that helps. I've used the Reset feature many times, and the only thing named recovery is a text file in the root with 0 bytes.

It sounds like you need a Recovery Drive: Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Recovery.

I created one shortly after setting up my Surface, thinking I could ditch the recovery partition and regain some space. After seeing how many times I've refreshed and reset this thing, I changed my mind about deleting the recovery partition.

That said, if you're near a Microsoft Store, drop by and see if they have a Recovery Drive on hand. That might solve your Surface's problem.
[Microsoft Surface] mk1151:
Sorry I had a few links open at the same time...

How about this one?

http://www.hard-reset.com/microsoft-surface-hard-reset.html

There is no date but they mention a tablet and Windows RT.

I've also read that shift + f8 on boot will bring up safe mode menu.
[Microsoft Surface] xray84:
I cannot even create such a drive, get the same error as in the Metro settings dialog (Missing files..).
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Actually, you do have a C:\Recovery folder, but it's a system folder and is hidden by default.

In fact, even if I take ownership of the folder, and give myself full control, it won't actually let me view the contents of it though.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
I have hidden files and folders turned on, but there's no C:\Recovery folder.

I have a Recovery partition, but it's not assigned a letter.
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Turn off "Hide Protected Operating System Files" and you'll see it.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
Ah, I'd mistakenly thought showing "Hidden Items" from the View ribbon would show those.

So I turned off Hide Protected OS Files, and found the Recovery folder.

But when I opened a command prompt with administrative privileges and visited the folder, it was empty, just like yours.
[Microsoft Surface] will25u:
I have the same problem as you. Did you ever find a fix? I might just go to the Microsoft store and let me them fix it but I doubt they can fix it without sending it out for repair or something.
[Microsoft Surface] xirsteon:
Are you still having issue? or did you found a way to restore from a recovery usb stick? I did a reset the 1st week I received mine and it went fine. After reading about few users here accidentally deleting the recovery drive or having issues such as yours, I went to the store and bought a 16gb usb stick for $11 from biglots and created a recovery drive. Shoot me a private msg or reply here and may be I can zip mine up. only problem I see with this is Surface formats the usb stick before copying the recovery drive content over to the usb stick. I'm assuming it used some kind of Windows 7/8 formating techniques such as diskpart and etc. Most likely similar to how Windows 7 USB tool (creating a bootable win 7 usb stick) works. Either way, let me know.
[Microsoft Surface] jkkw:
re-enable your recovery partition

if the option to reset your surface doesn't work, and advanced startup only shows one option, your recovery partition may be disabled.

in an elevated command prompt, type "reagentc /info"

if you see "disabled"

type in "reagentc /enable"

now go to settings and try reset again. it should work.

thanks
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Also, make sure you're up to date if possible; one of the recent patches fixed some issues that occasionally occur when trying to refresh or reset.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tikvah:
Just an observation. . . The CM 7 Nightlies been have rolling out regularly. For me, these have been smooth and stable. I keep going back to this Ginger based Rom. The new update for ADW launcher shows a lot of promise as well. I really appreciate the efforts on ICS and Jellybean. For some reason the phone reception drops in and out (we live in a weak signal area) with ICS more than CM, and while Jellybean is smooth, it is slow for graphic intensive games. I keep going back to CM. . .light and reliable.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Gingerbread was the last official release for ace devices. Because of this, anything after will never be as complete. I know cyanogen is going to support cm10 for desire/inspire but it may never be as solid as cm7.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tikvah:
I have tried some CM 10 mods and they are smooth (Jellybean source, right?). I don't do games much, but once in a while. . . the JB based roms seem to be laggy in the game dept.

I wonder how the CM 9 ROMS might progress, there seems to be more potential for the ACE devices in that direction. I really like Exist's work. Though due to my weak reception area, the ICS roms doesn't hold on to a signal as well. . . whereas the Ginger based roms do better in that area. I don't know why, and I'm too lazy to experiment with radios every time I flash. So CM 7.2 will be the workhorse for the time being.

Horrible experiences with Sony Tablets S and Sony Tablet P.

I gt it for SGD 668 n 848 respectively which us now selling at 370 in SG n 199 in US..

No phone releases in time, no news of T/TX/V in Singapore/across globe.

Even updates are not in time for upcoming phones.

Right now me and my wife using Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note II and trust me its awesome (I know many die hard fans will come up with design n plastic) but watever the phones are great, smooth, awesome specs.

For tablets m waiting for NEXUS 10 which is again Samsung !!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red 90:
I'm not sure if this is just my phone or its like this on everyone else's phone.

The screen has a general yellow tint throughout the entire screen when viewed in portrait mode. This generally is ok with me if it's even throughout.. However when I turn the screen clockwise to the landscape mode, and there is a clear white band without any yellow tint approximately a quarter of an inch wide on the left side of the screen. If I reverse the orientation such that I turn the phone 180 degrees to the other landscape mode there is another white band but this time only an eighth of an inch or less.

You can test this out opening up the browser to Google since there is a lot of white in that Web page.

Please let me know if it's just my phone or an issue with the nexus in general. I've also tried different rooms and kernels without any differences.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LordButtersI:
It's defective. Some color misrepresentation is normal, but white bands are not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] red 90:
Thanks for the reply, I'm not sure if it's a software issue as the band is not there in portrait mode, and only in landscape. And that also changes from landscape in one orientation as compared to 180 degrees in the other direction.

In my eyes yellow tint is what you want. Blue tint means the display is of poor quality,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sshede:

Problem isn't cooler or warmer display. It the fact that when I turn the screen to landscape there is a section on the left that is pure white without the tint.. And it not there when it's turned back to portrait mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bird11:
I see. Well it sure sounds messed up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JamesInsights:
Understand it could be a software issue but any sort of banding can't be good might be better if you just sent it to the service centre :P

You can fix the yellow tint with franco's kernel.
