hi everyone,

yesterday i tried to downgrade my hboot by using jewel/evita kit and bricked my phone.then i followed absolutelygrim thread for unbricking evita and successfully downgraded my hboot but forgot to restore the p4 file into mmcblk0p4.so i was not able to access my sim as there was no imei number(it got corrupted).

so inorder to restore my imei no from the p4 file i tried to push the backed up file(p4 file) today using adb and by mistake i pushed p5 file(which can have imei no in it) in mmcblk0p5 to mmcblk0p4.then i restarted my phone and now my phone wont turn on.please help
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CamoGeko:
Sounds like you messed it up royally.

If I was you I'd send it to HTC.

Spun out from a JELLIED and RENOVATED One X.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saketh91:
so if that is the case can i claim for the warranty without their notice.

also my phone is still detected by windows and ubuntu.is there a scope to recover it back to normal condition?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChefAnt:
So you are asking if it is the right thing to commit fraud? Man oh man.

Maybe do the reading next time you brick another phone. Get an iPhone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WhatTheAndroid?:
Maybe you should run it over as well? :).. Only kidding.

Before you go about committing fraud, you should pm grim and see if grim can help.

This is why you READ and RE-READ before doing anything that involves intricate steps like the one you forgot.

I see that you got your phone successfully downgraded and I am glad another one xl is saved.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saketh91:
is there something that i can do to bring it back to life.say create a new partition(sorry if i am totally wrong).load the proper p4 file in it
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
If your partitions don't show up after resetting the phone and searching with

ls /dev/sd*

Then I can't do anything, wait to see if SoulShadow can help you

What's with the design of this jack? I don't use ear buds but presume most will connect fine, but neither my Foxl speakers nor external amp will connect because of the curve of the phone. No problem with the GNex. Annoyed.

This started about 2 days ago. At first, I was on Liquid smooth ROM and my phone suddenly turned off, and kept ketting pulse vibrations but would never turn on. I could only get into cwm recovery, so i restored to JMTX2 ROM

Today, It happened again. But now, i cannot even get into the CWM recovery. Someone please help!!

as of now, it just pulse vibrates with a blank screen. (it shows "samsung" and then starts vibrating).

How can i fix this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bloodyface:
Yeah my phone has done that once before, but not with Liquid smooth. I remember it just giving me a blank screen with vibrations that didnt stop. I couldn't tell you what caused it or anything but I remember just taking the battery out for awhile, using a different charger (it worked for me), and just letting it stop doing whatever it was doing lol.. It probally went on for like 2 hours or so but I was doing whatever I can to turn it back on. I hope it works for you, just keep messing with it and it should stop eventually. Good luck

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spade4:
Ok so the Note's got Dynamic, Standard, Natural & Movie screen modes (in order of saturation).

Would a more saturated Screen Mode chew up more battery, because you'd think the OLED would require more power to produce a more vivid/saturated image.

I haven't seen it mentioned/discussed anywhere...It might be worth testing out, although I don't know how much of a difference it would really make...

:confused:

P.s. I'm not talking about the brightness or backlight at all. We all know that makes a BIG difference.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rj3005:
Saturation of colors should NOT make a big difference. (provided overall brightness is the same)

Let me explain with an example :

Red on full saturation only uses the red leds (at full brightness)

While red on 0 saturation uses all 3 colors at much less brightness

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] sax0406:
its enough if you flash just the original build.prop in the /system folder. Next time you want to change the dpi, edit build.prop. In that change ro.sf.lcd_density value from 160 to 140. Reboot. Then apply the theme and reboot. Change the density value back to 160 in build.prop & reboot. You are done :)

can you make a simple guide? o.o

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] FrozenSk1e:
How to change the dpi:

1. Download a file explorer with root support (root explorer o or ES File Manager)

2. Using the file explorer, go to /system

3. Open "build.prop" with the text editor

4. Find the line that says "ro.sf.lcd_density"

5. Change the value from 160 to 140. And reboot.

6. Apply the theme and reboot.

7. Repeat te dpi process and change it back to 160. And reboot.

I love the 50/50's, but I think the Beats sound enhancement is phenomenal. Turning it off/on really allows you to hear the difference although I'm sure messing around with the EQ settings can be just as effective -- I just don't know enough about tweaking sound system to get the EQ just right.

Beats with 50/50's is great.

Beats Audio beats the crap out of dsp. Their headphones suck, but the eq on sense is great. Also, screw skull candy. My jvc earbuds kick a**.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unclefarkus:
first off, I'm an idiot with this whole thing and shouldn't be doing it probably. i just don't know enough about it to be playing with expensive phones like this so i understand I deserve whatever i get.

i was running a custom rom on an S-ON phone. i forgot the name of the rom (was made by TEAM COOL or something). But I wanted to unroot and go back to normal stock ROM and download the JB update. First, in the SU app, I did a complete unroot. that did nothing except not let me use the app anymore.

then I tried doing the RUU way of going back, but when it would go to the loading bootloader portion, the usb would disconnect and it would fail with error 171.

so then, and i don't know how i got here, but i went into recovery and did a factory reset and now i have no rom. I have tried installing meanrom but it fails after some line regarding a kernal. my phone won't do anything except boot to the white HTC screen or into the bootloader.

i have no idea what to do, I just want it working at this point.

i've been searching forums like crazy but all the solutions are things I already have done or things that won't work for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
If you haven't done so yet, you need to relock the bootloader before running ruu. Put your phone in fastboot and using SDK or ADB Tools, type fastboot oem lock
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unclefarkus:
thank you for your help! however, whenever i do this, it just says < waiting for device >
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unclefarkus:
so i finally got a rom to install--clean rom. that is the one i used to have. but when i reboot, it gets stuck on a black screen and won't go any further.

I am trying to flash meanbean. I wiped the cahes and did factory reset, then flashed the ROM. It's been on "Installing /system..." for about 30 minutes now. Something seems wrong. I'm scared to interrupt it in case that's normal or if interrupting it will break it for good.

You need to FASTBOOT install it:

Turn off your device. Turn on the device and keep holding volume down until a menu shows up. Select fastboot from the menu list. Plug the device into your computer. If you have the right drivers installed, your screen should now say FASTBOOT USB. Run the following command via the command line:

fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:
Don't forget the clear cache commands
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unclefarkus:
I have given this a go, however, as I should expect by now, nothing happens.

It says "waiting for device" and that's it

Upon typing "adb devices" nothing shows up.

Furthermore, when I go to Fastboot, Fastbook usb does show up, but I get a message on the computer saying the usb device has malfunctioned.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thicklizard:
Can you get into bootloader? If so go to the TWRP website and download the hboot zip. Put on external sd card and enter bootloader.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] convictedcomputers:
Perhaps what is happening when you try oem lock and get that error is that adb is still running from a prior attempt or because of some other program. Try opening your task manager and ending all processes of adb and other programs that connect to the phone. Then try oem locking again and go from there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] unclefarkus:
I made a little bit of progress!

I determined that Windows 8 was the reason I get the usb malfunctioning message. I obtained a Windows 7 computer and it worked like a charm.

That said, I'm not out of the woods yet.

I relocked the phone using fastboot and then have been attempting to flash a stock RUU now that the usb issue is sorted out.

That seems to work but it gets stuck at "sending....." for as long as 35 minutes. I've tried about 4 times, giving between 20-35 minutes and it won't go beyond sending.

I can at least fastboot now; but the phone is locked. Which is fine; I just want back to stock anyways.
