[HTC EVO 3D] gkillerx:
I flashed a kernel today (was an update avaible) and I did this for some time now withouth any problems. But now, a problem :(

I'm stuck on the HTC splash screen, I use smarthflash from 4xt recovery and that WAS working great but now it isn't anymore what can I do ?

to be clear:

I'm s-ON I'm using smartflash from 4xt and it worked always. What I did:

I downloaded the update, went to the recovery, flashed it and then I removed cache and dalvik, reboot. I waited for over 1 hour it was still on the HTC boot screen :(.

I remove the battery. Wiped the whole phone (all partitions) I restored a backup that I made a few weeks ago, still the same!

I tried reflashing a whole new rom. Same

Reflashing other kernels > SAME!

Fastboot the boot > SAME!

Now I'm at a lost.... what can I do other then trow it away? I'm on hboot 1.53.xxx should I s-off should that help? I check a lot of guids but all of them require you to be in the rom it self....

I found this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=28131331

But when I run:

controlbear.exe as administrator it doesn't find my phone but ADB does find it when doing adb devices.... (I guess this only works when you are in the rom it self)
[HTC EVO 3D] Quantenhall:
Did you try flash boot.img via adb?

Or to run a ruu?

1.53 can cause problems, if you manage to s-off it, you should flash a 1.49 version,that should be the best one for gsm...
[HTC EVO 3D] HermanV0929:
Have you tried running a stock ruu.exe? That would take you back to stock, which is needed for wire trick (s-off) anyways. Make sure to relock bootloader before running ruu.exe
[HTC EVO 3D] gkillerx:
Thanks for the help guys!

I didn't run any RUU just yet.... will try this tomorrow

Herman, thanks tomorrow I will run the RUU

I have downloaded:

RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_Radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M_release_262714_signed

I asume this is the correct one (I'm unbranded and I live in Europe)

Also I tried relocking the boot loader (fastboot eom lock) but it still says that I'm unlocked in the bootloader..... I did:

fastboot oem writecid HTC__001

Then I got an error that said that it failed with to many links (like wtf?) and running it again gave no errors, and after running the lock it said that the device is locked BUT it's still showing unlocked in the bootloader after a reboot

btw can reflashing the recovery help...?
[HTC EVO 3D] HermanV0929:
Reflashing the recovery may help. I'd definitely give that a try first. It can't hurt.
[HTC EVO 3D] gkillerx:
Well that didn't work, unfortianly... now going to do this the hard way! will report

edit:

It's booted again! after doing the wire trick and with a little help of my great friend friend.evil, following his guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743466

I got it s-off, reinstalled everyting (include recovery) flashed hboot 1.49.007 and then redid everything. Now it's booted again :)
[HTC EVO 3D] HermanV0929:
Thats great, glad you got fixed :) Having s-off is so much nicer than just being unlocked
[LG Optimus Black] Dragusdrake:
Hi at all!

i would explain a problem: why LG change lockscreen in each phone?

Definitely ICS for Optimus Black and for Optimus Dual have a normal effect of unlock. The same have LG L5, L7, but there is a different style of unlock in LG L9, LG 4X, and in Optimus G there are FOUR styles.

Here there are some IDEAS , i'm not a dev, but i hope that someone read what I'm going to write

So i seen that in pre-release (leaked) of optimus dual, particularly the v28a the lockscreen is http://youtu.be/BV03aY0VNm0?t=1m38s (you must see right phone). Is a different effect of unlock compared to our version

http://youtu.be/yZYaMXC0o1A?t=14s

So i try to take and replace some file, unsuccessfully, from system dump of v28a of optimus dual (p990)

here there is .system http://d-h.st/iLK (you can mount and extract files with DiskInternals Linux Reader for windows)

i found also the system dump of optimus g

http://dl.androidtaskforce.com/OEM/LG/OptumusG_ATT/ATT_OptimusG_SystemDump.zip

and for example this video show the different style (4 styles)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWb0uBjiFVk

i know that, for example, someone port "Facelock" from P930 to P970 and it work

http://d-h.st/k0b

at the same time, from system dump of Optimus G, we can extract some libs, or file, that allow us to port these style to p990/p970, to work with lockscreensettings.apk of our rom.

or the last possibility is compiling with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24811293 and to hope the effect work with lockscreensettings.apk of our rom.

let's talk :highfive:
[LG Optimus Black] Dragusdrake:
i must post in theme section for more visibility?
[LG Optimus Black] theseventensplit:
i'd love to find a way to install the first one in the video you posted, anyone know a way?
[LG Optimus Black] Dragusdrake:
we need to understand, where are files that are needed
[LG Optimus Black] Dragusdrake:
add George Jetson's words:

The problem is why V28C and V28A optimus black leaks system apk files not working on V30B?Paul rich answered this question.He said that apks need deodex.But I tried deodexed v30i which one is ku5900 rom music player widget and its not working on v30b.We should make brainstorm together about this widgets and missing some features on our official ics update.Our first point should be what any system apk file expecting for clearly work on any official ics rom.Is it about kernel?Should we modify some framework files?Everyone should know its not about just copy files rom to rom.I hope our dear developers give some hint to us about this situation.

Hi, this is my first post here.

Ive been running cm10 on my Droid Razr for over 4 weeks now. Then just yesterday I backed up my data from cm10 and loaded it onto my stock rom (which I thought wouldnt be a great idea, but did it anyway) and then I reboot. The motorola M shows up then it goes to the cyanogenmod screen and stays there. It loads forever and now I dont know what to do, Ive gone into recovery mode and wiped my cache, data and factory reset but the same thing happens..

Before you all shoot me down, yes I know there are other threads relating to MHL adapters not working, most suggest a reboot etc, my problem is slightly different.

On stock rom on SGS2 the MHL adaptor worked fine, on Cyanogen mod, I get the image of the home screen of the phone on the TV but that is all, no screen mirroring, no video playback and so on. I do however get audio.

So, apart from going back to the stock rom, any suggestions?

I'm using SGS2

Cyanogen mod 10-2012-1008

Android 4.1.1

Should I upgrade? Or anything else I can do?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
Hi you all wonder full people

i am having a problem with my vibrant when i shut down completely. Right now its rooted and running the 4.2.1 hellbean rom. this problem has been happening before i even installed the 4.2.1.

So what happens is that after shut down the screen is turned off and this loading circular icon keeps flashing on the screen and wont stop.

Also when i connect the usb wire to the phone and try to turn it on. The android guy pops up doing some construction work with a spade and tells me to do not turn of power downloading or something like that. its in yellow. it can be real problem turning the phone on.

So question is how do i make my problems go away?

only way to turn this phone on right now is to connenct it to the charg er and then turn it on
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
The android guy and triangle is download mode, don't know about the other.

I am Jack's inflamed sense of rejection.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
sow how do i stop it from going to download mode. cuz right now the only way the phone starts is by plugging it in to the charger.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
Well you could try using Odin to go back to stock but I'm not sure if that will help.

What does it do after download mode pops up?

Your situation is very unique.

Would you prefer my usual method of conflict resolution?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
it does nothing after the download mode popup .

right now the major problem is the loading icon that pops up after i shut down the phone the only way to turn the phone on was connecting my charger to the wall and then my phone and then turning it on.

recently i deleted many folders from the internal memory when connected to the computer because there were some apps that i deleted a long time ago but they left there folders. So perhaps in the cleanup duty i deleted something important?--> this was before the flashing of the new rom.

and whats your usual method to resolve conflict. sell the phone?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsgun357:
I think you might have issues with power button/volume rocker.

Would you prefer my usual method of conflict resolution?

^^this is my signature^^
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
Well i opened up the phone and nothing visible is wrong with teh power button or volumer rocker
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
I am going to explaing my situation again just to make things clear

Main problem wont turn on after shutdown unless connected to charger on the wall

The phone is showing a loading icon a smal white frayed circle in the middle when its turned off continuosly flashing.

The phone wont turn on unless i connect it to the charger that is connected to the wall and press the up volume button and the power on button.

When its connected to the computer through usb it goes straight to download mode with yellow android icon appearing with the shovel

When its not connected to any power source and is turned off the phone continuously flashes the loading icon that i mentioned above.

Also i think this problem might have occured when i tried to clean files from the main sd card that were useless or i thought were useless as apps can leave behind many folders once uninstalled.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
I odin to stock and back and same problem. samsgun357 it seems like you were correct. if it is a problem with power button and rocker. Any way to fix it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiazand:
update: it wasnt the power and rocker button. Something is up with the power jack. I took the usb and pressed hard on the power jack and the pressure seems to have fixed the problem. For now.

I had the same problem with my Chinese-market Goophone Y5.

This thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=732030 helped me immensely.

Of course, I was willing and able to root the phone then edit the gps.conf file and then apply the changes using the FasterFix app. If you're a noob then it's kind of complicated and since you'll be groping around in the innards of your phone's file system there's wide scope for breaking something. I sort of knew what I was doing and I soft-bricked my phone twice. But if you're willing to take the risk,,,

Unless of course there's an app which will do all the above risk-free, but if there is, I didn't find it...

Lenovo S890

Hi Everyone

I just ordered a new Lenovo S890 from Asia.

Is there any chance to root it and install a custom rom on it?

Links to good thread will be appreciated.

I want to root it, make it multi language and install an non chinese rom, to be able to have the market etc...

The shop Etotalk has developped a custom rom but they don't want to sell it.

People from India or Russia, maybe can help?

I found some links but in chinese so it is a little difficult to understand a word.

Maybe we should create a dedicated Lenovo S890 Thread?

Thx for any help

If you just updated to the 4.1.1 OTA updated pushed by Lenovo, there is no current rooting solution (simple PC tool) at the moment... this is what I summed up from the Chinese Lenovo forums...

Here are the resources I found regarding S890:

Russian forum: I cannot post the link since I have less than 10 posts... available via PM I guess....

The russians actually offer the USB drivers... and a TWRP recovery guide... looks nice, tomorrow I'll get the 4.1.1 un-rooted S890 to test everything I downloaded and some more...

Chinese forum: I cannot post the links since I have less than 10 posts... available via PM I guess....

I also downloaded the ROMs I found on the RUS and on the Chinese forums... I can upload them to a safe location for sharing if you want to test it... after you have managed to install the recovery (in english) and get rooted...

Any news/suggestions... highly appreciated ;)

In a bit of a pickle.

No matter what I do, my system status is always modified.

I've unrooted with TA, flashed stock, then wiped cache, wipe data, and wipe cache.

It shows normal the first boot.

Then when it restarts, it's modified again.

You have to do a data/factory reset in settings/backup and restore mate.That should fix it.

My friend went back, did that.. and the store salesguy have him another phone under insurance.

I would do that, but won't accept a refurbished device over my new one.

If only they give new replacements.

Anyway, I finally got it back to Normal.

I used Kies to restore it, and it's on Normal no matter how many times I restart.

I think I just needed to reflash it twice to get it back to Normal.

You should def. try Camera 360 or CameraZoom FX. Both working absolutely problemfree with O2X and has also some nice filters (for e.g. HDR). But please note, Camera 360 is not designed for video capturing - CameraZoomFX has an integrated VideoFunct., but is not yet supported by O2X - I requested it already out from the app via mail.

If you wan't an all in one, try pudding camera or camera fx (both free). Optional you can also try Awesome Miniature Pro or PaperCamera - not as a main camera, but for some more filter options.
