[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] LordYuuki:
As nobody answers the question...

After rooting, it'd be possible to use Ubuntu/Debian/Arch Linux via chroot. But I couldn't find links whether media applications , especially sound, is working. The possibility to use Linux fully on my tablet pleases me, but I rather have it boot natively, but for this we need some things I found in the Asus Transformer TF700 Forums(which is one of the first tablets to get dual boot Android/Linux):

-unlocked bootloader (that's quite a major fact in porting linux to our devices. I'm no dev, I can program a little in java but that's it.)

-devs willing to build armhf Linux from source or use Ubuntu armhf /Debian armhf versions(I'd prefer Ubuntu or Debian as both are quite the same but Unity would be better to use on touchscreens)

-compile the tegra drivers in this package (wouldn't be too hard if one package already existed, people could install it after installation for HWA)

-rootfs on sdcards (since Android is still on NAND and it'd be cool to dualboot, but still, the lack of an unlocked bootloader is hardening the entire process

I don't know if it'll work, but if we write an petition to ACER to unlock their bootloader, maybe they could send as a tool like ASUS did?

Or does such a tool already exist? I only know of rooting tools but none to unlock bootloaders (which could explain why you can easily brick your Iconia A700 , i think)

If somebody is willing to help/provide ideas to this project, I could do some work and ask devs who work also on the Linux Kernel to help us out. But we also need a volunteer to lend them their device. But first, and that's priority nr.1: we need to unlock bootloader as fast as possible.

Ninja Edit: Found out that the bootloader is already unlocked, so we just need an .img that boots from sdcard so the Iconia sees it.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] LordYuuki:
So, I played around with chroot+boot scripts to boot linux "virtually" on the A700.

Wouldn't it be possible to leave the ubuntu.img on the sdcard, but get the bootscript on the NAND/internal memory, so it could execute while booting?

I don't know how to accomplish this, but there'd be a way to execute it to run natively. Ubuntu via chroot with keyboard/mouse via USB OTG and HUB works without sound working yet, but it's just a matter of time.

I really hope that more people start helping/providing info on this matter , just to provide more ideas to this project.

Hello to everyone and happy holidays.

I think i've dead bricked my note n7000.

I've tried to put an ics custom rom having windows 8 x64 and got a failed message and blue screen.

During trying to restore a stock gingerbread rom, i remained without battery.

When i put usb cable in the phone, nothing happens, in wall charger i get a yellow triangle with firmware upgrade failed.

When i try to enter into download mode "Battery too low. Cant download".

What can I do ? Please help me, because i tried a lot of solutions and nothing worked.

The only way is to get an external charger ? Or something like that ?

Thanks.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lifeinacoustic:
After about two years of periodically tinkering with my G2. I'm at wits end.

I have tried every possible approach with downgrading, upgrading, using custom firmware but nothing I seem to do fixes the "Error" I get when trying to turn on the wifi. Bluetooth works fine, which leads me to believe that it's because the driver somehow got destroyed among the way way back.

I've attempted to do that *#*#5...blah blah blah, but it just cause right back to the dial pad and acts like nothing has happened.

If anyone knows of a solution, let me know. It's costing me a nice penny with a pre-paid data plan on it because it is unlocked from T-Mobile to AT&T. $15 within 2 hours.

I have searched countless forums and I've seen people have this issue but no one seems to really know of an answer.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc.mikey:
Hi,

Firstly let me say I'm sorry if this has been well a worn topic but I've not been able to find the answer.

I've got a GT-I9100 and I'd like to root it to install a non-branded ROM on it, and all the guides say I need to pick a kernel version that is similar to the one I have installed to avoid bricking the phone, and the only advice on identifying the kernel version I've been able to find is along the lines of "look at the kernel version in About Phone and it's the letters the come after i9100" like so: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF1-CL256340. The problem I'm having is that my kernel version doesn't look anything like this.

My kernel version shows: 3.0.15-1056084 dpi@DELL131 #3 SMP PREEMPT Thu Sep 13 10:45:25 KST 2012

And has a Baseband version: I9100BULP8

And a Build number: IMM76D.BULPG

The baseband version is about as close as I can find to the letter code that I'm looking for, but I cant find any kernels with the code BUL??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Just install stock rom (without pit file) from sammobile.com, then flash Siyah kernel via ODIN.

Plenty of guides on XDA on how to flash via ODIN. Use google or XDA search or even some of the sticky topics.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peaceful Droid:
Mate if u still in question... read this n follow it

EDIT: i think you visited there n posted question...:silly: sorry mate follow post above mine
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc.mikey:
???

Is there an explanation that goes along with this? I could do with knowing what a pit file is, what a stock rom is (clearly not ROM in either the traditional sense or the way it's used in Android circles to mean the rest of the OS other than the kernel), where one would find a 'stock rom' on sammobile.com, why I'm only using the 'stock rom' and not the 'pit' and what the 'Siyah kernel' is and why I'm supposed to use it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc.mikey:
Reading the link

Hi, thanks Peaceful Droid for the link. I'm not sure if I'd read this thread before but it does make a slightly different point; that I should be using the last 3 numbers and letters from the kernel version code.

I still don't have a code in my kernel version, but if I am supposed to use the code from my Baseband version then that would mean my code would be LP8 and there is a CF kernel: CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XSA_LP8-v5.4-CWM5.zip

Does that sound right to you?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peaceful Droid:
I found CF-Root-SGS2_BU_VOD_LPC-v5.4-CWM5.zip on CF's page i think it will help you... just double check as im NOT SURE.

r u on vodafone??? which country???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc.mikey:
Vodaphone

Mine is a Vodaphone ROM, I'm in the UK. Although I should say that my intention is to get all the Vodaphone cr@p off my phone as I don't use them.

Is the VOD_LPC version more likely than the XSA_LP8 one I found?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peaceful Droid:
hey mate i found this might u r very close...

kernel is same which i mentioned in my PP

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

This is link for CF root

and ya pls hit thanks button if i help you...;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abc.mikey:
please have thanks.

Hi.

OK, well I reread the Chainfire howto and found this bit:

So I decided to opt for the LP8 on the assumption that the number in the baseband version I was looking at was indeed the right thing.

I've installed it and restarted the phone and it seemed to be OK. I'm backing it up now with CWM. :)

Yes and please have thanks!

Hey everybody.so i have this problem with my omnia thats piss me of each and every time.I can't make large icons.i can make it very small or normal but no large icons.what do you think people?

I use windows phone 7.8 and mi7Rom?

Thanks!
[Omnia 7 General] znial:
try the vanila or dynamic rom, the tile system is better then old mirom

anyway

only few apps have large tiles

system app like phone, mail, sms, zune, games, pictures have large tiles

few third party apps have it like facebook (new feature in the last upgrd), nokia drive and maybe music

i suppose that any app that were able to pin doubble tiles on 7.5 could be resized to large on 7.8 but they are really few and id like to know which these apps are :D

As you said you cant enter either download or recovery mode, first you enter the download mode as follows:

Press the hard reset button which is a small hole between camera and phone speaker. You need two people to do this. Tell someone to press the hard reset button with help of a pin or needle and simultaneously you press the download mode combination (volume down + home + power)

This should definitely work for you.

Then flash with proper i9003 files via odin v1.83

Good Luck :)

i want to know which which region is cid j_15?

which ruu should i download?

is it middle east or Europe
[HTC One X] LaCourgette:
If you mean HTC__J15, this is the Middle-East unbranded CID.

According to this page, you have to flash this RUU:

RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_ARA_1.28.415.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_25679_signed.exe

You'll easily find a download link on Google.;)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes but if he's on software 2.17 (ics 4.04) then this ruu is not going to work !

Do fastboot command

Fastboot getvar version-main

It will give the software number that has to match the ruu number !
[HTC One X] daywalker_7780:
thats all the data of the phone i that there is a custom rom installed

but how the cid is j-15 and the rom is 3.14.401 which is the Europe rom

any help?
[HTC One X] mhoss48:
I also have the htc__j15 .. not rooted and want to update it. How ?
[HTC One X] Vcek:
HTC__J15 is for MEA (Middle-East and Africa)

If you want to update to JB sense, you will have to manually flash hboot 1.31 which is a test version (causes sensor problem in some phones)

you will have to void your warranty to install the software from a custom recovery.

My suggestion is wait a couple more weeks before getting the official update.

Well firstly, you shouldnt be double posting/bumping your thread, You have an edit button if you need to add anything.

Second, You have no need to ask this question as its already been covered a million times over in all the other topics about this, please use search before creating topics. That is XDA rule number 1.

Third, The answer to your question is no. Once you install custom kernel your fine and not affected by the bug.

But is it the same if i flash PhilZ kernel via my s2 stock recovery or if i flash it via odin on computer?

Stil wanna ask this that can i now go and install roms in my PhilZ recovery and is it safe to wipe and backup things? :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pasanjay:
Philz kernel is safe. But i personally had some issues with it. I suggest you to flash dorinmax or siyah kernel to wipe and install roms. Its perfectly safe. I have used it myself hundreds of times
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finlandpetu:
Thanks. What kind of problems did you have and could you post a link to the thread to the kernel you suggest?:)

And is it the same to use stock recovery or odin?:):confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spiralzz:
Philz kernel has a broken recovery which doesn't let you flash AOSP ROMs... It gives the status 7 error and aborts installation.

You may flash Siyah kernel from www.gokhanmoral.com. Download the Odin version (.tar file) and flash it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
I'm gonna listen to this guy and download that kernel, don't need it but.....you never know.

hmmmm...a Q arose...gotbrickbug on a safe kernel.......still give's you the cold-hearted message that your in danger?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spiralzz:
Yes. To superbrick, 3 criteria must be met (check detailed explanation of each by entropy512 who is a kernel developer and elite recognised developer). One of them is that you must have the dangerous emmc chip. I believe what gotbrickbug does is check if you have that chip or not.

But, being on a safe kernel (custom ones are more reliable than Samsung ones unfortunately in this regard since 4.0.4), the command mmc_cap_erase is disabled which makes sure that the emmc chip doesn't get wiped.

So, being on a safe kernel even if gotbrickbug gives the danger message will keep you safe ;)

If I'm wrong or anything, please correct me :) I actually don't know much about this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finlandpetu:
So if i was able to apply philz in recovery why should i install siyah by odin? And is it safe to flash files for me now(meanig the brickbug)? (after i have flashed philz) :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
I meant the app, always looks at the chip wether you are on a safe kernel or not, right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finlandpetu:
To me the app says that my kernel is not known but atleast it isnt known as an superbrick bug!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spiralzz:
Yes. Philz kernel is safe. I merely mentioned siyah as some roms cant be flashed via philz recovery. In that case, youll need flash siyah first.

But its okay if you want to flash mods/kernels and its safe.

No, the app looks at the chip, not the kernel. If your phone has a defective chip, no matter which kernel you are on (safe or dangerous), it will always show dangerous.

That doesn't mean that you have a safe chip. It just means that the devs don't know if its safe or unsafe... But still, if you're on a safe kernel, no need to worry :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finlandpetu:
Okay ill try the siyah kernel. Can i flash roms like cm10 in siyah's recovery?

Is theare any any way to findout has my phone got the superbrick tan just bricking it:D
