Stuck in Airplane mode

Well I had my One X stuck in Airplane mode for about 5 months, initially after I couldn't get it off and there was mostly guess work on most forums, like try this and try that etc, I tried all the supposed solutions but none worked so I bought another phone but every now and then I'd have another crack at the One X to try to figure out how to fix it.

Today was the day, after a lot of trying this and that once again I ran a Super Wipe Script, put Renovate Final 4 Rom in the root directory of the phone, went into the recovery wiped everything and reset it to factory default, went into Advanced/Mounts and Storage unmounted everything ( cache, data, system, formatted cache, data and system then remounted everything again, manually flashed the Renovate final 4 kernel ( I'm unlocked S On) installed the Renovate final 4 Rom and to my surprise it booted into set-up and when finished I was on the net, unbelievable.

I probably had a bit of over kill with what I did and don't know how much of it was necessary but I was desperate and had nothing to lose cos if I didn't fix it this time the phone was going to be a bin job.

So if u have one of these (bricks) all is not lost and it can be fixed

I hope this helps somebody out there with the same problem

[HTC One X] YPG&YPJ:
The solution

Hello people,

I had this extremely annoying problem and tried nearly every rational or irrational so-called "solution" (flashing custom roms, restoring nandroid backups, meddling with kernels, pressing and holding the power button for ten seconds, etc.) to no avail.

I think this solution is the only definitive one and I've stumbled upon it by mistake while I was looking at the mainboard circuitry to figure out whether something was off and then realized that one of the antenna right below the micro usb port was broken. Since I previously had opened my phone up to fix the wi-fi issue and for a battery replacement, I cannot account for how the antenna broke but I do know now that the problem is due to lack of contact between the antenna and the little plate in the back cover (similar to the wi-fi problem explained in length here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1688538) and it's probably what is happening to most of you who has been unable to fix the issue with a simple kernel flash.

QUICK NOTE: This fix involves minor repair; you will have to open the back cover and possibly do some soldering (you do not even need to unscrew anything).

Here is what you need to do:

1. Remove the back cover (it can be tricky the fist time, there are tons of tutorials on youtube)

2. Locate the antenna right below the micro usb port on the mainboard (I am talking about the ones mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2130751)

3. Check if they are intact; if so, try to lift them softly so that they will contact the plate corresponding to them on the back cover (the vertical, rectangular gold plate).

4. If they are not intact or if you want a more permanent fix or just like soldering stuff, apply solder. Again, the main idea is to have them contact the plate, you can get creative if you want.

5. Put the phone back together and jump in the air.

Conclusion: In my case (and I suspect in many others'), the issue was the antenna which is probably for DLNA. I have read so many threads and it appears even the HTC repair people are unaware of this fix and opt for replacing the entire mainboard. This is a relatively easy and cheap fix and I hope it helps others.

Cheers!

---------IMPORTANT UPDATE---------

The problem turned out to be about the flex cable that connects the mainboard to the docking board/network board. It had come loose due to broken gate; I am now certain that the problem was due to that. Again, this issue is a hardware problem and has to do with a loose flex cable.

Sorry for the previous misleading guide. Bu this IS still hardware related :)
[HTC One X] Thant:
The missing IMEI is not the hardware problem the IMEI is stored on the chip not on the plate ot on in the antena and the airplane mode is on because of the missing IMEI
[HTC One X] YPG&YPJ:
Well, that might be true but in this case, people aren't actually missing their IMEI because it shows up when you do a getvar check in the fastboot mode. Considering the fact that some people were able to temporarily fix this problem by firmly pressing on the screen hard and that HTC One X is infamous for its design flaws regarding the antennae and plates on the backcover (especially the Wi-Fi issue) AND that I was able to fix my phone which had all the symptoms described by others this way without changing its software is PROOF that this fix works. Your reply is just speculation.

I strongly urge others who do not want to or who are unable to spend hundreds of dollars for a mainboard replacement to try this method. I tried it more than once (did a sloppy solder job the first time), it certainly WORKS.

Htc one x airplane mode not turning off problem

I am also facing the same problem what you guys are talking and I didn't root my phone or installed any custom rom.. You told we have to flash boot.img... Can you please explain me how to do that... Because I am new to this flashing things...
[HTC One X] n4beel:
Solution

Had the exact same problem. Flashing the boot.img from an earlier nandroid backup via fastboot did the trick.
[HTC One X] akustycznie:
Hi.

I have this same problem. I tried to flash boot from previous version and it's worked - I saw IMEI and do a call, but after restart the phone the problem is still exist. What can I do restore my HOX to full working? (I'm sorry for my english).

Edit:

I noticed that the phone after restart starts working properly after 30 minutes - 1 hour. Then airplane mode it's turned off and I can do a call. Is any solutions to do it faster?

Hi! Hope everybody is having a nice Thanksgiving (slowly transitioning to Black Friday).

I brought a piece of great news, Kindle Fire HD 8.9" (and HD 7", but I don't have a device to test) locked bootloader bug has been fixed.

All hail to sloppy programmers (as if there were any other kinds, right?)

Thanks to: fattire for noticing a bit of unverified user input, Hashcode for doing some prototype testing on other Kindle devices before we got our hands on actual Kindle HD and a bit of source code.

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] craby1925:
What exactly was your method? I don't want a how-to but I am more curious of your exploit.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] verygreen:
Just as fattire highlighted in this other thread, there's an unchecked length parameter in boot image, so you just make it really long and overwrite the stack of the bootloader, allowing you to transfer control to your code (another copy of uboot in my case).

It seems there are a lot of misunderstandings about how these bootloader fixes work, so we are preparing a document laying it in some more details. It currently only covers Nook Tablet (of Bauwks fame) and just needs to be expanded a bit.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] fmkilo:
any word on if this will cover the kf2 the non hd one? I can't wait to get my hands on mine in a couple days. But I like the look and feel of cm10. ( I have the latest nightly on my sgs3. ) also, is there any word on actually unlocking the bootloader?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] ZilverZurfarn:
I think there's quite some distance to cover between "Bootloader cracked" and "CyanogenMod 10 running". CM really only works with source code, and I really can't see Amazon releasing all their source.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] fattire:
There is some distance to cover, it's true. But much of that has been covered. CM10 is already running, albeit w/o sound for the moment. And speaking generally, the source for CM10 is available.

Also, it may be wiser in general to get a Nexus 7 or Nexus 10 or something similar if simply to support the hardware manufacturers who make it very easy for you to unlock to install your own operating system.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] ZilverZurfarn:
Sounds reassuring that CM 10 is already up & running.

Yes, I'm aware of that CM sources are available - but it was Amazons source code I was referring to. I doubt they (Amazon) will release drivers & cetera to facilitate the creation of third party ROMs.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] bodi524:
Which Device has CM10 on it running? KF2, 7"HD or 8.9" HD? and will it be available for all 3 devices?

I am looking forward to this putting some new life in my KindleFire2.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ianrobbie:
Hi guys,

I've searched everywhere and can't get a definitive answer on this so here goes -

I'm a noob when it comes to Android, having recently defected from being an Apple Disciple (I got hacked off with iTunes and bored in general with the Daycare Centre which is iOS) and have recently acquired an Acer A700 tablet.

I have installed the JB update OTA and everything is working fine and am chomping at the bit to get it booted, but most of the posts I have read regarding unlocking the bootloader and rooting it relate to ICS.

My questions are -

Does the bootloader process apply regardless of Firmware? (Are there different versions for different Firmwares)

Can anyone point me in the direction of a decent tutorial on how to do this?

What happens regarding a future update? Do I have to revert back to stock and update from there or can i jump from one ROM to another? (I'm assuming that I can't use the OTA updates any more)

Sorry for the long OP and thanks in advance for your answers.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
No problem. Seeing you are on JB, then you have a JB bootloader.

You need to go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1953917

And download Vorbeths easyroot2.0. It's for the 700.

You have to unlock your bootloader first, which shouldn't be an issue for you. Easy instructions for that.

Then download his package to a folder on your PC. (not sure, but you may have to download each file individually) Open a command window (shift & right mouse click) and type in whatever his instructions say. Should be painless.

Make sure USB Debugging is turned on first in your tablet (Settings/Developer Options/USB Debugging), and make sure you have the Acer Drivers installed on your PC.

Then connect, wait 30 seconds, and run his batch file.

You should be ok.

MD

Oh yes, one more thing, once you unlock your bootloader, chances are you will not be able to get OTA. And the only way to re-lock the bootloader is to install a stock rom.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ianrobbie:
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I am now the owner of a fully rooted A700!

Had a few issues during unlocking the bootloader. That thing timeouts quick! Also, didn't realise you had to run the .bat file while the tablet was on the Bootloader USB protocol screen. I thought you had to wait until it booted fully into JB.

Anyway, took the plunge and thanks again for your help.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
No problem. I thought I mentioned it timed out in about 5 seconds ;) These days I don't remember much ;)

Yeah, I haven't looked at Vorbeth's script, so I don't know which screen he launches it from. With mine for the 701, you can be when the tab is running normal. No difference in the end result though ;)

Happy Hunting!

MD
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ianrobbie:
One last question - do I have to install Clockwork Recovery for re-flashing the stock images or is it just a case of renaming it update. zip and putting it on an SD Card? Any chance you can point me in the right direction of the most recent/stable build? Is it easy to install?

Thanks again.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
Well, this is a trouble spot.

If you wish to install a custom rom, then you will need to install CWM. The most recent version.

If you want to try your luck at installing a stock rom, my opinion, is to leave the stock recovery inplace. I haven't had luck in installing stock update.zips, as Acer has made them very specific. So I can't be much help to you in that.

However, you can always flash back to CWM or a stock JB recovery pretty easy. Personally, unless you plan on flashing a custom, I would just leave the stock recovery.

MD

Sometimes "leaked" update appear here in the forums. They are unofficial. And you never know if they improve things, or make things worse. So be careful.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ianrobbie:
So, just for future reference, how would I go about re-flashing the stock image? I'm assuming it's saved on the tablet in a separate partition?

I've decided to stick with the stock rooted ROM but would like to know how to re-flash for when Key Lime Pie and future updates are released.

And, seeing as how you haven't steered me wrong so far, I though I'd pick your brains one last time.

Hope you don't mind!

Yeah LuPuS has Lulzactive, Virtuous, Intellidemand, Lazy, Ondemandx, Lionheart and Badass added (but no mention of LionheartX).

Turbo kernel also has intellidemand but the parameters have been modified quite a bit (by me) to suit our snapdragon SOC's better. I think wedgess also put these changes into LuPuS too (at least one of the ICS/JB kernels he builds he said he did). The browser mode still has no effect AFAIK but in my experience it's more battery-friendly and better performance than on-demand (thanks mainly to dbus_input ramping). But many users have reported slightly better gaming experience with SmartAssv2.

[Xperia Play General] jabberwocky_one:
Throughout my experience(mainly from observing CPU speeds during music playback), I found that:

Scary:

Ramps up to max after reaching a threshold (50/60% CPU load) then slow scales down to match as 50-80% CPU Load @ X MHz. After a while if load lowers (30-40%), it will clock down to match the 50-80% load. You will see a lot of 100% @ low MHz with this governor.

SavagedZen:

It maintains a 80-90% CPU Load @ X MHz for a fairly constant load. This one also scales based on the Max CPU Freq. settings. So the lower your Max CPU Freq, the better it is at maintaining the CPU Load/MHz balance (for music playback at least).

I didn't look at the source, so these are just from observations only. So I might be talking out of my ass.

Also, having good CPU Load at appropriate CPU Speeds may or may not contribute to battery life. No experiments showed that yet iirc.

Monitoring done via "Diagnosis - System Information" an app that generates an overlay with whatever information your want ie cpu load, speed, memory free, used, disk io, network io, etc.

Refresh rate kept at 5 seconds to keep CPU Load interference minimal (lower than ICS/JB CPU Info overlay from Development, Settings tab).

Am I setting it up the right way?

I prefer using that minimum and maximum.

And would this screen off profile work, even if I have configured the main minimum? The 100mhz for screen off really saves a lot of my battery.

Yes it is right. I didnt really tried the other way that you mentioned, because i have No-Frills pre-installed in my settings..but i see it worked. Of course it will save battery.. Nice :D

Will add more soon :) About kernels, Is there any BFS kernels around here ? Most kernels are CFS..

Sent from my WT19i with Real Xperia r1
[Xperia Play General] CosmicDan:
There was, I ported it over a few months ago. But I removed it because it was causing priority issues. The latest BFS patch for our kernel has some critical bugs, so I ditched it. When I get ext# fixed in .60 kernel up and going I will probably take another crack at it, backporting one of the more recent 3.x BFS versions.

One of the LuPuS kernels might still have na laternative BFS version, but I think wedgess stopped building it for the same reason as me.
[Xperia Play General] zhanjia:
I see, there are really few BFS based kernels out there. BFS is better in my opinion so i would like to elaborate more about BFS to attract more users.

Btw, one guy in Xperia Mini, Mini Pro and Active forums had already successfully making it up and running for stock and CM ROMs. Its already hitted version 2.3

Maybe you could get some help from him ? Name is Mesa Kernel.

Sent from my WT19i with Real Xperia r1
[Xperia Play General] CosmicDan:
I was using v0.313 of BFS, it wasn't that hard - just had to adapt the patch for the Xperia's stupid kernel. That version is so unstable and buggy, in fact all 2.6.x BFS patches were so problematic that the official page has removed them.

I'll check it out, if he back-ported BFS for Linux kernel 3.0 and has them on GitHub, otherwise it would be easier just to do it myself. But I have other more important concerns for Zeus development right now, BFS doesn't really bring any significant performance boost (which is why it is continually rejected from AOSP inclusion).
[Xperia Play General] zhanjia:
Oh... i didnt know that.. anyway, I don't think he has his github set up. I didnt saw a link to his github on his thread. And isnt BFS aimed for forward looking(like only performing on a task that is given without any concerns) ? I read about it at google docs about it. And i don't really know how to explain it clearly..

Good luck in your development my frirend. And this thread has been moved to General section. Hope you can find it and Nice to have another friend :D

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Media_Blitz:
For anyone who has the Nexus 4, have you noticed any loud pop sound originating from the lens? Now, I may have actually caused it through ignorance. I started messing with the ISO settings through Camera Zoom FX and set it at 100 in a low light environment. The camera started lagging (focusing took long and moving around was extremely choppy) perhaps because of the lens' attempt to gather as much light as possible. After I successfully took the picture, the camera lens started to pop, no matter which camera I used (Camera 360 or Stock). Has this happened to anyone else, or did I just mess up my camera (warranty covers it though)?
