Hey,

Since my thing worked now i can tell u too...

1) Backup all your apps with TitaniumBackup.

2) Backup all you messages with SMS Backup/Restore.

3) Backup all your contacts (by syncing them with your Google account).

4) Flash the cwm deadly46 posted.

5) Reboot into recovery and take a nandroid backup.

6) Copy all important stuff (or even better; your whole SD-card) to your computer.

7) Reboot into recovery and: do a factory reset, clear the dalvic-cache and clear the cache.

8) Run the ext-4 formatter deadly46 posted.

9) Copy all zip files needed for the flash to your sd-card.

10) Flash them.

11) Do a factory reset, clear the dalvic-cache and clear the cache again.

12) Reboot and don't get scared when it doesn't boot withing a minute, the first time always takes a while, but it can never

take more than 5 minutes (I read).

13) Login with your google account.

14) Install TitaniumBackup and SMS Backup/Restore and restore everything you need.

And your good to go!

This is all i did and well thanks to deadly for showing me what to do; it worked !

I use iTunes. Don't hate me. its the only apple product I use, and IMHO iTunes 10 was the best music player out there. Again, please no hate/flame, I know I'm spewing heresy here.

But iTunes 11... what can I say? I upgraded this morning and its awful. Truly terrible. I'm ready to wash my hands of the last apple product in my life, it I need to find something else.

And I have no idea what. I've tried Winamp, and its even worse. I've also tried Zune and windows media player, and they're both just as bad. iTunes 11 is, sadly, still the best music program I can find, and I hate it.

So, what do you guys recommend as far as PC music players go? I'm willing to try anything, even things off the beaten track.

If only PlayefPro would release a PC version. I'm in love with that app on android.

Foobar2000 is hands down the best music player for PC, but if you're not an advanced user or don't have the patience to set it up right i wouldn't bother. That said, if you take the time to learn how to use it and discover all the GUI enhancements that are available you will definitely be rewarded for you patience.

MusicMatch Jukebox used to be good but it's been dead for years :(

I've stopped updating iTunes on version 9. It wouldn't recognize my iPod on older versions once I hooked it up to a newer one, or i'd have stayed on 7. -.- (The iPod was a gift and it's the only thing for my alarmdock, so I have no choice..)

I just use WMP10. If I want to do any IDtag editing, I do it myself through TagScanner (free!).

What are you looking for in a mediaplayer? Because there's a lot of them.
[Off-topic] mtmerrick:
Mostly? A decent cd ripper/music file organizer/tag editor that provides a near-full-window grid of sortable album artwork and a decent search function.

something that looks roughly like:

i'll try out some of the ones you guys listed. i do prefer form before function (in this one scenario) because i use zero advanced features of itunes.

oh, and m4a support support is much desired as well.

Can you rename them? All my audiobooks are just mp3's. Just name them D01T01, D01T02, D02T01, etc. At the front of the title.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ecs1984:
Good day all,

I've got a little thread going with some themed versions of the new 4.2 DeskClock app, and I am looking for anyone who is currently on any 4.2.x ROM who can help me with some testing. I am still on 4.1.2 as I can't take the plunge myself quite yet, so I am not able to do this myself yet.

I am looking to confirm that the theming I have done to the DeskClock APK's doesn't cause any issues with the function of the app. The AOSP version of the APK has some issues when running on 4.1.2, but I am assuming they are not present on 4.2 since I haven't seen anyone complaining about it. I also want to confirm that the flashable ZIP file I made is 4.2-compatible.

The ZIP file here (View attachment 1523414) contains a semi-transparent white version of the 4.2 DeskClock. You are welcome to inspect the contents as well as the updater-script to confirm this. Nothing nefarious. I ask that you try flashing it and help me answer 3 questions:

1) Did the flashable ZIP work? You can confirm by installing the analog clock widget and seeing if it is now semi-transparent (or a fainter white depending on your wallpaper). I can make a ZIP to get you back to stock after that, or if there is a style in the OP you like, and I will make a flashable ZIP for you.

View attachment 1534986

2) Does the new digital clock widget work on 4.2? When I try it on 4.1.2, I get the display error in the screenshot below, even the stock unthemed version. Sadface.

View attachment 1522550

3) Does everything still work? Alarms? Timers? Widgets? No weird FC's when exiting the app while a timer is running?

If anyone is willing to help me with any or all of the things above, it would be greatly appreciated!! You can post here or in the thread over in the Themes & Apps sub-forum, I'll be checking both places :)

[General Questions and Answers] osmosizzz:
I'm having a little issue. Yesterday I flashed CM10 and had everything set up and all was good. I listened to music without a problem. This morning, on my way to school, I was using poweramp (as I do on a daily basis) to listen to music. After class, i decided to run poweramp and i noted that it would attempt to open but then i would get kicked back to my home screen. So i decided to use Apollo (which im not much of a fan of but I was glad I kept it). I came home and I immediately Got rid of CM10 and went with Stock based ROM. installed everything as usual but I'm still having the same problem. This time, I uninstalled the app (cleared data and cache), rebooted, installed again and the same thing was happening. So i decided to download another popular music app (player pro) and it was doing the same thing. Can I get some tips on what the Issue may be please? I have uploaded images of both of the apps stalling before I was kicked back to my home screen. And I also did a logcat. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Note: The link is to download the Logcat since its bigger than the XDA limit.

[General Questions and Answers] mcavoya:
If you did a "dirty" flash when switching your ROM (that is, only wiping cache and Davlik cache) then you might want to try a "clean" flash. There's some disagreement about what a "clean" flash is; but, it at least includes a factory reset/data wipe.

I will do a factory reset/data wipe, and a cache wipe, and a Dalvik wipe when switching ROMs. It doesn't take that long, so why not just do everything.

Of course, make sure you back up everything first -- the factory reset will completely erase all of your apps and settings.
[General Questions and Answers] osmosizzz:
I've done that. I only dirty flash ROM updates. When I go from ROM to ROM, my habbit it wiping data twice, wiping dalvik twice, wiping cache twice and formatting system twice.

I Spent 2 hours getting this ROM set up yesterday and installed all of my mods. Guess I'll have to switch. Thanks for the reply

Hi,

My HOX articles at the beats audio screen after updating RUU, any idea how to solve ?

Your HOX articles ?

Try to get into fastboot.

I am able to get into fastboot that's all.....I have done factory reset but still no use....
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Are we supposed to guess what you did to your phone prior to this? Or would you like to tell us?

Do you want a custom ROM or stock?
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
You can solve it, if you won't do things you don't know, what it is.

Honestly, you flashed wrong ruu. Look after your Cid and choose the right one
[HTC One X] Flashben:
I download the RUU for CID for HTC_044 Asia version
[HTC One X] Flashben:
Maybe any expert can paste the link for the RUU for my CID of HTC_044?

You can't flash a wrong RUU, it won't work, it'll fail and tell you it failed and.nothing will be changed.
[HTC One X] Flashben:
Do any have the past RUU?
[HTC One X] BenPope:
You can't flash an older RUU.

Please explain what you want to achieve.

On htcruu.com you'll find RUUs, you probably want 2.17.707.x or newer.
[HTC One X] Flashben:
Ok the whole story is i have unlock bootloader, install CWM and root my HOX, then when i know there is an update, i relock it and update the RUU and wanted to update to JB......

I have flash stock recovery and the firmware (13MB) then after flashing the firmware and restart my phone, it is struck in the white screen

Now my HBoot is 1.36.0000

Radio is 5.125.162.29
[HTC One X] BenPope:
So did you flash an RUU?

Not sure why you updated hboot, but now you CM10 won't work, so you will need stock ROM and stock boot.img, which the RUU should have given you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tjubrock:
After every time I restart my phone and it turns back on my phone will never automatically mount my sd card, so I have to go into setting and manually mount it myself which normally isn't a problem but every once in a while my phone won't let me mount it, when i click on the mount sd card button, it goes to another screen that has a title Reset? and the whole screen is blank. I have reset the phone, taken the sd card out, I have done everything that has normally worked in the past to get it to remount but this time nothing will work. Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions how to fix it?

Thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vividuser:
Same problem here

Sorry, no help for you, but I have the same problem here. Started just a few days ago. I haven't made any changes to my settings that I know of that could have caused it. Anyone have any suggestions for getting back the ability to mount the SD card?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bikesquid:
Yup, me too, just rooted my phone trying to get cifs manager (cifs.ko) installed and working with my win7 machine (no luck w/that yet either)... since then the external sdcard unmounts from time to time and restarting the phone requires a manual mount
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tjubrock:
Fixed?

What I had to do was basically move my entire sd card on to my computer then I formatted my sd card put only my necessary things back on there and it fixed it, stupid but it got it to mount right away...oh and I formatted it though the phone erase function not using the computer, so I didn't have to take the sd card out again.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bikesquid:
Tried the erase all, but no luck... I suspect it's related to installing busybox... tried unistalling that without success too... would installing another ROM likely fix that, and if so any recommendations?

Talking about an HTC vivid
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] BlackRenegade:
I'm having the same issue, except it partially mounts the external card (only shows a couple of folders but not the /music folder with 2100 songs along with 4-5 other folders)...Only way I have been able to fix it is to connect it to the PC as a disk drive then disconnect it, then all the folders "reappear".

If I put the card in my tablet I have no issues.

I tried a new card but the problem is still there.

Any help or suggestions?

Problem Solved

Good Evening OP,

I had a problem like this earlier today. I finally rooted and flashed a new rom (PACman). I used CWM as my recovery, and apparently this is part of the issue. You need to use TWRP for your recovery instead. Their website is at http://teamw.in/project/twrp they have instructions located there on how to install TWRP onto your Vivid. I used the fastboot method, then changed the settings in the 'Mount' tab to mount SD Cart, Internal and Use External SD. Worked like a charm. And since it's touch based no more using the volume rockers and power button... Hope this helps! By the way http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2109140 had the initial lead to install TWRP instead of CWM. :cool:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbr:
Hello, I have 2 questions regarding Fastboot for the Galaxy Note II:

1) Is fastboot supported in the Galaxy Note II?

2) If not, is there an adb equivalent of the command: fastboot boot recovery.img?

I ask because I know that adb is supported by the Galaxy Note II, and it seems that Fastboot isn't. I appreciate all help.

Regards,

Alan
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbi10k:
Why do you believe fastboot is not supported? Fastboot only works in a special bootloader mode, you can get into with 'adb reboot bootloader'.You shoulb be able to use fastboot then. Generally there are no adb equivalents of fastboot, as they just do different things.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbr:
Hi dobbi,

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, the command 'adb reboot bootloader' does not boot the Galaxy Note II into bootloader/fastboot mode. It just boots the device into normal mode, just like a regular restart. That is why I think this mode is not supported by the Galaxy Note II. Could it be that I am doing something wrong? I doubt it, because the 'adb devices' command works normally, so it must be that even though the adb reboot command is being sent correctly, the device somehow blocks it. Any ideas?

Regards,

Alan
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbi10k:
Try to boot into download mode with either a jig or by pressing special buttons, I don't know them by heart, but they should be easy to find. Then issue the fastboot devices command. If you see your note, you can use fastboot.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbr:
Booting into download mode is easy (Vol. Down+Power+Home). But once in download mode, neither fastboot devices nor adb devices show my device. In normal mode, adb commands do work though. I have read somewhere that fastboot mode is not supported by the Galaxy Note II because it supports Odin. I am not that experienced, so I do not understand why supporting Odin means that fastboot must not be supported (why cannot both be supported?). Does this make any sense to you?

Regards,

Alan
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbi10k:
It is possible to support both. I cannot find any real evidence that the Note II does not support fastboot, however it isn't mentioned in any tutorial or similar. Not every device supports fastboot, unfortunately, as it's a developer tool, really. And let's face it, the Note II isn't exactly what you'd call a developer device... I do not own this device, so I can't check, but it seems there's no fastboot for you :(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbr:
Yeah, that's what I thought. Anyway, I really appreciate your effort in this issue. Many thanks for trying to help me out.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ben.selinger:
The Note 2 uses ODIN/Heimdal to flash recovery. It's insanely simple.

VolDown+Home+Power, then choose VolUp to get into ODIN mode.

From there, use ODIN (Windows) or Heimdal (Linux) to flash a proper recovery (ClockworkMod, TeamWin OpenRecovery...) and use the new recovery to flash your new ROM.

I use Linux so I haven't tried ODIN. Heimdal went like this:

Download TeamWin Openrecovery. Extract the recovery.img

heimdal flash --recovery recovery.img

Done.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
Close kies from task manager or remove it entirely. Just leave the drivers.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archangel5884:
Something of note that no one has mentioned: ODIN requires .TAR files in order to flash correctly. .IMG files will not work. The Galaxy Note 2 Toolkit includes all tools you will need to root, add a custom recovery, flash an insecure bootloader, and convert .IMG files to .TAR files.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike the inkman:

Thank God and thanks to you all for this thread!

I've done everything humanly possible to fastboot

N7100 but no way! Adb works fine, I've used Odin to flash stock firmware from sammobile with pit file and everything worked well but fastboot? No way!

I've downloaded the Lastest drivers from Samsung and Google, disabled firewall and Anti-virus, run as Administrator, uninstall and reinstall drivers but yet fastboot ain't working on N7100....

Anybody who has ever used fastboot on N7100 should please tell us how, it's really annoying that I can't use fastboot on this phone.....
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silentvisitor:
You can't use Fastboot on Note 2 cause.........it doesn't have it :p

Samsung uses Download mode and ODIN (which is much better with GUI than CLI Fastboot) for same purposes.

Search and read more and you'll like it :)

Good luck !
