Download any stock ICS rom, hold VOL DOWN, home and THEN power and flash rom via odin
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NanoSurfer:
Bro please watch this then give us some more info..

PS: Did you install CWM through Odin? :confused: Why on earth would you do that! Also if you wiped your device on ICS using CWM you may be up sh%t creek without a paddle, because your device might be permanently hard bricked
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Like said here before, if you installed CWM on an unsafe Kernel (usually Stock Kernel present on 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 Stock Firmware) and after that wiped your data/cache etc. there is a good probability that you hard-bricked your device. Not even JTAG will help, if it`s the eMMC hardbrick.

Try to get into download mode and flash a Stock 4.0.3 Firmware and if you can`t then try a USB Jig to get into download mode and if that doesn`t work you probably hardbricked your device as described above

display gets black and stuck. i tried everything that is possible to me. press and holding power+VOL up+home together, leave it for charge etc.

but nothing works

COULD ANYONE HELP ME ON THIS SITUATION. :crying:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *boy*racer*:
As said before, Try power + volume Down + home and flash a stock firmware through Odin :rolleyes:

And is there still any life at all? What about when charging. Is there the charging animation?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
I love comments like this. Well if you don`t read properly how and what to flash at what time to your device and just do as you think is right then you are going to end up with a hardbrick. That`s nobodies fault but yours. Why did you buy an Android phone in the first place if you can handle an IPhone better?

If you have an hardbrick and you can`t even get into download mode, what do you expect people to do? We are normal human beings here, there are no miracles here. If you have an hardbrick, you can try to repair it via Jtag or send it to a Samsung service center if you are still on warranty but if you complain about Android and how much it sucks you won`t be making many friends here, since this is an Android community.

I now can go into recovery mode I've lost root access and my phone wont update, any ideas would be greatfully accepted.

you only need to do is root again.nothing else

put the zip file for root in the root of the sdcard and flash it from recovery
[HTC One V] Snyper0012:
Happily I have flashed the new CM10 and rooted, and it is one of the greatest ROM's I have seen so far. But and update came out and Im wondering if I have to reflash the boot.img again or just flash the zip only to update it. I already have CM10 installed.

Also small question. What are your guys recommended undervolt values? I looked all over forums but could not find anything.

Hey guys, Recently ive been wanting to root my lg optimus 3d

But ive ran into some problems.. Ive followed this guide:

[THINGS MARKED IN GREEN IVE DONE SUCCESFULLY]

OFFLINE Root for LG OPTIMUS 3D MAX

1. Download the archive and unpack it (create a folder on desktop named whatever you like):

Root kit http://www.mediafire.com/?fafrhfiu409zy99

2.Download "IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.apk" attached below and copy to root of your phone (internal storage).

http://xdaforums.com/atta...8&d=1345501542

3. On the phone in the "Options -> Security" enable "Unknown sources"

In the "For Developers" enable "Debug on USB"

4. Install "IS11LG_SystemBackupTest.signed.apk"

5. Then open the installed "SystemBackupTest" and not closing

Hold down the power button and reboot the device.When i open the app it says 'Hello World' and thats it. So i was like okay hmm i should follow the stept and turn off the device

6. You might get BOOTLOOP ,so don't PANIC. Just wait at the LG LOGO.

After 3-4 Minutes on LG LOGO, PRESS Power Button.I didint get a bootloop. It just turns on like always.. The startup doesnt take like 3-4 minutes and the lg logo goes away (like normal) and then my phone is on (like normal) so i was like okay again this should be right i guess

7. Connect the usb now ( make sure that usb drivers are already installed ).

7. In the folder you've created «O3DM Rooting Kit» run the file «root.bat»,

wait until the script is executed and the phone will reboot.I ran the file (while the phone was connected) and it just doesnt go any futher then deamon started succesfully

8.Then on the phone, open the Google Play Store and you will find "SuperSU"

Upgrade "SuperSU", and then open the program asks updates ... Click OK, to

9.Update SU binary ...

10.Now you have a root-law. You can delete an application «SystemBackupTest» ...

So anyone. Please instruct me on what i should do.. I really want my phone rooted.. Should i have like drivers or something? (if so please provide a download link) Or what else could it be? Help me!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] air-wave:
I am having this weird square mark on my back button that can easily track fingerprint. Let just say my screen is now totally clean without any fingerprints. With the phone turned off, if I started tabbing my thumb on the back button my finger print will be noticeably shown as a square. The size of the square fingerprint mark will be just big enough to cover the light of the button when you turn your phone on. It seems like there is a square portion on top of the back button that are easily tracked with fingerprints. I tried to wipe this particular part with hot moisturized cloth and alcohol but it doesn't seem to work.I do not notice this on the other side, and I am just wandering if any of you having this same problem. If you do, are there any ways to fix this? Thanks Alot!

me too man (but I got on back button, under home button, and next to "back" button !! LOL)...we can't clean. I try everything.

maybe we can remove only by glass polished (but we got gorilla glass so I think it will not work). Also you can put ultra crystal screen protector.

I will try tonight clean with gasoline...if that will not work also....than we can do nothing about it.

I've always been a lurker/downloader on XDA so if this is the wrong way of going about this than please correct me. I came over from the at&t HOX and so far we are lacking in development on our at&t HOX+. Hasoon2000 is willing to commit to our device and has already done a lot in the way of helping us with root. The device runs just under $600 with tax from at&t and I am willing to start the funding with $50. I work for at&t and can also get an early upgrade to him to knock another $100 off the price. That puts us at $450 needed to get a driven developer working on our device.

Edit:

I made an error in my tally posting. Lack of sleep, my apologies. $450 is needed after my original $150. I am adding another $25 to the pool which will bring the money needed from others to $425. The total donations to this point are $310 before my $175.

Are you talking about TW based JB rom?

I have bought a high capacity Gold Battery 3500 mAh (Ecell - GOLD 3500MAH BUSINESS BATTERY) , and that made the difference. From 1: 30 screen time to 4 hours. It is very cheap and works really good.

So, in my case every JB ROM was very similar at the time of battery life. Looking at the Accessory thread I found good reviews of this battery, so I just ordered in Ebay . and I am very happy now. It is incredible for me to go to bed with almost 50% of battery after a heavy day usage.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lance59:
About a few months ago i rooted my captivate and installed the cyanogen mod and ics with cwm recovery... at first everything was fine my phone was moving a lot faster and i liked the new look and feel to it. But recently all hell broke loose unfortunately... probably for two weeks i kept recieving a notification saying " low on space" so i started to uninstall some apps and rebooted my phone and it went away but it came back like days later. So today i did the same thing but went into my file management and deleted some useless files that i didnt really need (such as pictures and etc). Then i rebooted my phone once again and this time it got stuck on the ics animation screen where it shows those colorful tiles all over the screen but it won't boot at all i took the battery out and everything but nothing. I thought draining my battery would work but it didnt. So ultimately my question is is it possible to flash back to the stock and restart the whole process? Or do i just do a factory reset on my phone? Confused and angry cause ive had problems with this phone before i rooted it PLEASE HELP!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
If you can get in download mode, you could flash back to stock KK4.

From there, if you wanted you could get the Corn kernel and flash it through Odin 1.85 and finally flash the ROM you want to use (ICS/ or JB)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lance59:
whats the one with bootloaders??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
In order to run a GB firmware/rom, u need the i897 gb bootloaders. They are backwards compatible and once u flash them there is no need to flash bootloaders again. If u need to flash back to stock again, use the kk4 without bootloaders.

Be sure to use a reliable micro usb/usb cable, have a constant power source, etc., because u don't want to lose connection while flashin the bootloaders...that's where the potential for a hard brick is (bad bootloader flash...mix matched bootloaders...).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lance59:
Ok so basically flash back to stock without bootloaders then after that flash the ics again? i believe i flashed bootloaders the first time
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lance59:
And do i do a factory reset before i start?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
If u have never flashed the i897 gb bootloaders then u will need them. Those kk4 one clicks will do a full wipe...so back up ur apps and whatever else u want.

Odin or Heimdall Stock KK4. Odin KK4 Corn Kernel. It includes cwm. From there u can flash ur dev rom of choice...same as what BWolf56 had suggested.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lance59:
ok i gotcha but the weird thing is right now it wont let me go into download mode im holding both the volume buttons but it only takes me to cwm recovery mode :/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Download is with phone powered off, hold volume down and up and plug in micro usb, having already opened Odin or Heimdall and with the usb end of the cable already plugged into pc.

Im just laughing at myself right now cause i went into recovery mode and reinstalled the ics zip and it came back again lmao it booted up it didnt say cyanogen mod on it just google guess i gotta reinstall that too

Hi guys,

I know quite a few people have been asking the same question as I was - "Why has Google Voice disappeared from ICS keyboard?"

Well, Now I have a solution!

You can either do the following:

A) Search play store for "Gingerbread Keyboard"

OR

B) Installed the attached apk.

AFTER you have done that, open a app with a text input.... get the keyboard up... then press and hold the spacebar to bring up "Input Method selection" box, then select "Gingerbread Keyboard".

you will now see a voice icon :)

This is not my application and I am in no responsible for it breaking your device in anyway.

Question to anyone with any knowledge of compiling keyboards - what files are related to the notification that appears whilst on a text input box? is it ok to remove these if decompile & recompile?

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] htc.kimosabe:
Hi all,

I have been trolling through all the forums on the GT-I9300T then the 9305T, and found so far a heap of tips and tricks for tweaking my phone.

I've been happily Rooting and ROMing my 9305T for a month now all without issue. What I've noticed is that with each ROM i put on my phone, it accumulates more files, folders and other legacy junk from the previous ROM. Do that over four ROM's and you get the idea...

So i thought i would restore from backup, my factory ROM which i have on internal and external SD. Unfortunately the restore came up with an error saying it was missing a file during the data backup (The Boot, Cache etc. all restored without a hitch) so it went into a boot loop...

I got out of the boot loop OK, installed the correct factory ROM form SamMobile and all is well. The phone works and everything is intact, but i now have a lot of junk on my phone I'd like to get rid of to restore it to the day i bought it. With my backup image not working can a full wipe and re-install be done to accomplish this?

This is my first NFC device and I was doing some research and I finally managed to get it working on my N4 however it doesnt let me add my Canadian credit card address but says it needs an American one, google also stopped those prepaid credit cards so that's not an option I guess the only other thing I could do is buy an American Prepaid Credit card online but that'd be a huge waste of money as it involves two currency conversions.....

Anyways just wondering if anyone knows how to spoof my credit card address or even better any other NFC payment that will work in Canada - I like the idea since I only carry my drivers license and credit/debit card around (ive lost my wallet far too many times but strangely never my phone)
