[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
Personally, I'd take it out of the box and run it until it shuts off automatically, then charge to full with the device powered down. Doesn't really condition it, since there's no conditioning needed for lithium technology batteries.

What it does do is make sure the battery readings are better calibrated, so you get a more accurate assessment of what your actual charge is.

From there, try to avoid letting it completely drain, as complete discharge cycles can reduce the battery lifespan (as can complete charges, for that matter).

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
Long story short, had a party at my house. The phone was stolen and wiped, OS entact, then sold on craigslist. Whoever bought it on craigslist, soft bricked it. Returned it to the seller who then found out it was mine and returned it. It was retrieved by my sister and was returned to me with the Splash Screen on with the red HTC developer warning at the bottom. Good news, phone is back. Bad news, its soft bricked.

So i go through a few of my options.

1) Recover a NANDROID

Internal SD completely wiped and External is missing

2) Load a NANDROID that I had saved on the computer onto a buddies external SD and recover

Loads to Splash Screen, goes to blank and returns to splash infinitely

3) Try the new DirtyRacun S-OFF

Cannot move past Step 13 because of symptom from #2 above. So now Im thinking that this may be because this method puts the original RUU on the device. I had CM on it at the time, which was flashed using Flash GUI, Im assuming the CM Kernal is still on the device and the Stock RUU wont match with the CM Kernal.

4) Flash CM

Same symptom as #2

At this point all I can do is ask the masters on the XDA forums (all you guys). The forums have totally helped me in the past but this is my first post. So, Im not to a noob to rooting and its involved processes, but, by no means am I an expert. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated. Some other things that may help are this I have a feeling that the Internal SD may be unmounted but Im not sure. I am unlocked and S-ON I was running a recent nightly CM flashed using Flash GUI. My recovery is TWRP 2.2. Also, Ive tried to search for soultions on the forums but havent found anything similar to my particular situation. If i could get a reference to different post that would be awesome too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dangle79:
might try the recovery tool from original dev section

it was looking like a good resource for soft bricked phones.

since there's the racun s-off now you could maybe dev-re-lock and do the official ruu to 2.13 just to get to complete stock and a working phone
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sparytrainor:
Also could try flashing stock pj75img from bootloader and starting fresh. I had to do this once when my system partition corrupted on me somehow and it saved my butt. It will overwrite anything left on your phone, kernel included.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
what would that involve. i only know how to flash stuff from recovery. how would you do it from the bootloader.?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sparytrainor:
If you are on 1.12 bootloader use this link to dl, rename file to pj75img.zip only, place on an external sdcard and reboot to bootloader. Bootloader will automatically find the pj75img.zip and ask if you want to update, follow directions from there (it could take a bit and will reboot a few times and even look like it's doing the same thing over again) let it do its thing reboot and voila... Back to working stock.. If you are on a newer bootloader you will have to search for pj75img.zip that matches your loader (1.15 or 1.19) I'm at work or I'd look for the others.. Good luck bud, hope it helps..

I think this might be what he's talking about. http://unlimited.io/qhsusbdload.htm not completely sure tho..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
according to their site its for bricks cause by the s-off process through unlimited also, it looks like its more for a hard brick.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sparytrainor:
That's what I thought to, but it's all I could find on un brick.. It sounds like u have similar symptoms as I did.. The pj75img.zip did the trick for me.. It's not nearly as involved as an unbricker would be and the phone virtually does it itself... What bootloader were u on??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
im on 1.15.000, cant find a 1.15. img. would that be just taking the ruu and renaming it? i tried doing that and it still said no image was found
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
besom yahdrent

this **** would be a whole lot easier if i had known what the people who had my phone did with it. i feel like im missing something with it not working.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sparytrainor:
Do this first: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ywwsgozw7ek1rva/2.13.651.1_Firmware_NoHBoot_NoRecovery_PJ75IMG.zip rename to just pj75img.zip

Then try the 1.19 ruu.. I can't find a full stock pj75img for 1.15 either, but this might help...

Have you tried fastbooting the boot img.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timeconsumer05@gmail.com:
i dont think so, how would you do that?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
In adb tools. Fastboot flash boot.img.

May be wrong but if your on 1.15 or higher u can't flash a pj75img from bootloader.

Maybe u should read the "Don't Panic" thread in Q&A. It's stickyed, just when you get advice you know how to do it.

Don't wanna sound like a **** just if you read it you'll have a better chance of recovering the phone

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Is there anyway to get louder bluetooth volume on a phone call and better quality.. I had the sammy victory 4g and volume was crazy loud and quality of sound was amazing for a cheap low end phone
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Anybody have a clue
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 00mred00:
havent really noticed any issues on my lg tones, jambox or my bt head unit....what are you connecting to?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
I am using a blue parrot headset.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Evan702:
I'm using a Plantronics Voyager Legend and the volume does seem a little low even at maximum. It can be a bit staticy sometimes as well. Neither issue is so bad as to be annoying though. I had thought that the issue was with the Plantronics, but I suppose it's just as likely that the problem is with the Note. I haven't searched for a solution yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
I have tried my headset with my wifes gs3 and my old phone photon and it is crazy louder with those phones, then I connect if back to my note2 and the voice prompt and commands are loud but when on a phone call isnt nearly as loud....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 00mred00:
Silly question...but did you turn it up? I think there is a setting that adjusts in call volume to a lower level by default
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
I've seen the same thing. Its a software thing because on Jellybomb 5.1 the volume us definitely louder but still not loud enough. My same BT headset was much louder on my Evo and is much louder on my WP7.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Ya I just wish I was smart enough to figure it out I have tried multiple Bluetooth headsets and all them get quiet when you start taking but use thm on other phones and are louder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Any super smart developer that can figure this out there has to tweaks somewhere to increase the max volume
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Next1776:
I would Definitely say its a problem with the note. The volume is way low on a call. I use a Moto hx550 and my GS3 worked great with it.

I have been following this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1931970

and tried the tweaks by editing manually, but it didnt help bluetooth volume. So I'm either not tweking the right volume values or there will have to be another solution found. Its frustrating, but hopefully something will come out of one of these threads...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jaculop:
I have an issue with my Note 2 Bluetooth quality as well. Using Motorola Elite Silver. Seems to be perfectly fine with playing music and as soon as I initiate a call the quality degrades their voice breaks up as well as mine. Works fine with other devices, currently have tried on a couple different ones in the Sprint store I work at.

What rom/kernel are you running? If its a tw rom with a compatible kernel you could try STweaks.

It has an option to increase standard volume limits.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
thanks i have tried different kinds of kernels and played with it in stweaks with no luck it really sucks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbucz24:
Hmmm, its got to be rom related then. If your headset works fine on a different phone, then thats all thats left. There is one last option for you

I use a jawbone icon I got fron ebay.

What really made the difference for me...jabra ear gels. They look crazy! But they hold inside the ear without a hook. An it tunnels the sound dramatically. $6 for a full set left and right.

Honestly bud, this made night and day difference! Sadly their not available in any store anymore. But online everywhere!

If sound is this much an issue for you. I would say the $6 is worth a try.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] raptor15sc:
There should really be a VLC-like setting on all ROMs that allows you to go above 100% on bluetooth volume if you choose to.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] frazefast:
This is definitely a fault with the N2. Compared to my SG1 the bluetooth volume on max is far too low on the N2.

Needs a fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Yes it does its kinda of a bummer sure wish they could fix the quality also

Ok, I had no other place to put this post, but figured this was the best for right now. I was unable to achieve root with the HD 7 method, so I went searching. I am happy to report success!

I also tried the 7 root method and it did not work. Thanks for this, it worked. It was a little tricky and some of the commands didn't appear to be working but in the end I have superuser installed. So far so good...

Maybe someone can shed some light on exactly what this method is doing and verify it is safe.

No go here. Can't get adb to recognize the device, and I don't know where to find the device ID for fixing the ADB_USB file in .android directory
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] jmoak:
After rooting using this method and installing go launcher and es file explorer. I found a few odd applications that are installed. I'm trying to figure out if these were already on the device or if they were installed by this root method.

WanPeek

AT&T AllAccess

Are these one your device?

Update: looks like the AT&T apk is indeed a Kindle app. I'll assume WanPeek was also already here.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] mdblaze:
Yes, they were already on all three I rooted. My guess is they are there to support the AT&T 4G version of the 8.9.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] jmoak:
Thanks for the confirmation
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
I can confirm as well that this method works. As the post said before it appears the process is not working, but sure enough when it finished there was superuser apk and su access. Thanks for being the guinea pig mdblaze, good find!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] CaptainJack87:
Confirmed Root + Play Store

I can confirm this works as well, and also that Kindle Fire HD 7 method for installing Play Store works as well too (did not auto-update with old vending.apk, but works just as fine with actual Google Play APK) Hands-down the 8.9 flies faster than the 7!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] somdave2005:
It worked! Thanks OP!

Anything we can do about apps that don't work? ie google maps, tasks apps, google currents, etc?

Are you guys using a different launcher now, like ADW launcher or NovaLauncher?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Ravynmagi:
Not working for me either. Seems like it can't detect my tablet (have ADB mode enabled). Did ya'll have to install some drivers? I Googled some Fire HD 7.0 ADB drivers, but those wouldn't install for me.

If someone can provide a bit more details, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Well I had to install the Android SDK. Then copy the Platform-Tools folder into this script's "\stuff" folder.

Now ADB finds my Kindle Fire HD.

I tried option 1, it seemed to complete fine, but no Super User in apps. So I tried option 2, again no Super User. Which method are people using with success?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] jmoak:
Option 2, I followed along with the video. Entering every command even if they didn't appear to work.

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------

I tried both Go Launcher HD and Apex Launcher. I like Apex better so far.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Ravynmagi:
Are you getting permission denied errors with the first two commands?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] jmoak:
I believe so but I do not fully remember. I do know I was getting errors but just kept pushing on. It even mentions you will get errors in the video. I do remember getting errors on the last two commands thinking something was wrong but he also gets the same error in the video.

Start watching the video at about the 7 minute mark. That is when he roots a tablet.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Ravynmagi:
I decided to just a factory restore and start over.

Unfortunately it's still not working. No Super User, no root access. No idea why this isn't working for me.

---------- Post added at 12:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

Have no clue what I was doing wrong or what went wrong the half a dozen previous tries. But now Super SU is installed and root access is confirmed.

Got Google apps installed, but can't sign in with YouTube though. It crashes when trying to sign in.

Edit: Got the YouTube issue resolved as well. Was missing the GoogleLoginService.apk. It's all finally coming together nicely.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Technogen:
Is this surviving reboot? Also has anyone attempted to do a factory reset to see if it clears it? I've had this thing 3 days I really want Google Play on it so I can access my apps but don't really want to nuke the warranty just yet. :/
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Yes it does work, but no a factory reset will not clear it. If you what to get rid of root you have to move superuser.apk from /system/app folder,to /data/app folder, install it in that location. Then delete the su binary from /system/xbin/. After all that the factory reset will restore to original.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Technogen:
Somethings I ran into that may help other people.

If you do all the steps and still can't see the kindle in ADB run a driver update on the kindle, ADB showed up for me after that.

After the kindle rebooted it was not seeing the device as being back up after a 2 minute wait. I unpluged and reconnected the USB cable and this correct it.

Having some issues post-root

Hello,

I have followed all the necessary steps and had a successful root for my Kindle Fire HD 8.9 and it was working great...until this morning. I am having some connectivity problems (wifi will just drop) and a few random apps will not load...they will just sit "loading" until I shut them down. Is anyone else having an issue? I know this is a pretty broad problem, but with someone a bit more experienced I might be able to track down what the issue is.

I'm really enjoying having it in more of and 'android tablet' form than the kindle fire stock.

Thanks!

multiple failed roots

I am a newbie to rooting the kindle fire 7" hd 7.2.3. I have researched and tried multiple methods and failed. Now,I have a successful root and I figured out what I was doing wrong. My kindle was registered w/Amazon so I unregistered it and bam, successful root. Upon root I registered again and all device and cloud apps still worked except for fb, which I uninstalled and reinstalled. With all my researching I never saw a prerequisite that kindle cannot be registered with Amazon. This oversite maybe why some of us educated newbies are failing...? I have modded my xbox,ps3 and the kids wii, plus installed ddwrt on a linksys router so I have an understanding of firmware flashiing and/or "soft"modding. I guess that during root while the "registered" kindle is rebooting rooting and rebooting that Amazon is flash updating and blocking successful root...? Perhaps a moderator will read and edit this post for accuracy and better explanation...?

Kindle Fire HD 7" - Root Question

sparhawk2012,

We as a community educate you the end user, no need to have the Moderator edit the post, that is not there job unless the post is offensive. First, welcome to the Kindle Fire General thread, we are happy to have you as an active part of our community at XDA Developers.

Let's get to your issues. No, registering or unregistering the Kindle will have no effect on Rooting the device. We restore Kindles and Root immediately after the restoration, the send the Kindle back to our customer. We successfully root an average of 10-12 Kindles a week. We also suecessfully root old devices that are registered with Amazon. What I suspect is you just nailed the root process at the correct time, that is all. Sometimes the Kindle can be a pest dispute doing everything as directed. Many time we instruct the customer to "keep trying until the device roots". We have seen it take four or five time, then BAM, it roots - to rhyme or reason.

Let us know if you have any other questions sparhawk2012.
