[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LOLephant In The Room:
I have rooted my Kindle Fire HD 7" and wanted to do a factory reset. My kindle was cluttered and I was hoping to start fresh with a reset. I was in the middle of trying to install some google apps, and became stuck when ES file explorer stopped allowing me to paste certain files into system/app. I abandoned the project temporarily, and was going to resume after the reset. After that, every time I booted the kindle on I got error messages.

I assumed once I did a reset those messages would go away, but every time I start to register my kindle I get a message saying "(such and such) has stopped." and I get sent back to the "Welcome" screen. I have tried several times, including quite a few reboots, but to no avail.

Any ideas on how to get past this? Or maybe a way to completely reset everything on the kindle (including system files)? Thanks in advance! :D
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LOLephant In The Room:
What about...

Will re-downloading the kindle firmware reset the system/app files,so that the current error messages don't show up? If so, is there a way to download firmware without having to use the kindle itself, just from the computer while the kindle is connected through USB?

Edit: I'm going to try and use a factory cable and the "System.img Restore Tool" to see if that fixes the problem, I'll post back later...
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ang1dust:
Any suggestions on a replacement USB cable? Mediabridge seems like a good replacement but i notice the cable is overinsulated and makes it very very difficult to bend. I just broke my OEM cable from my Thunderbolt and i dont want one that slips out like the one im using. Its annoying as hell. Gotta plug it in and slowly let go and pray it stays. Im looking for 6 foot. Anyhow. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] craigviar:
Motorola cables are nice. A standard 3 footer plus a usb 3 foot extention will work well. Don't cheap out with the $1 cables. Go OEM Moto or HTC.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] brizey:
The media bridge cables do look nice...I just ordered one this week. The motos are solid... real solid when Amazon has them on prime deal.

Everything was fine with the root however I used a font app installer that got the phone stuck in a boot loop (on the rainbow screen). How do I get back to rooted JB?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidChicago:
Did you do a back up of your original rom? You need to get back into recovery...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
No I didn't. I didn't see that in the instructions or I missed it. Any thoughts on how to get back to rooted JB?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidChicago:
Well if the font app got you into the boot loop then I don't think you lost root, I would get back into recovery wipe cache and hit reboot... See if that works... Good luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
Unfortunately, I tried that. I think I did an accidental factory reset too but nothing has brought it back from the boot rainbow screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Did you unlock using EZ Unlock v1.2? You only mentioned that you rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
No, I didn't use that. I followed the instructions to root found here (worked no problem until I met that $&#^%#& app) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2046439 I think I can reset using Odin I just don't know what to use
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Aight, well did you unlock the bootloader? Your response dictates the suggested route to resolve this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
I did follow the instructions to unlock the bootloader
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
If that's the case then you just need to boot into recovery and flash a rom. If you were running just stock rooted & unlocked VRBLK3, it's easier to just flash a rooted stock rom like the official VRBLK3 leak here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2034118

Try just flashing that, without wiping, then boot into the rom.

or

If you were on a custom rom, just reflash that rom via recovery and you'll be fine. Unfortunately you lose all your settings of you wipe data in recovery so try reflashing either option without wiping if you absolutely need to try recovering whatever data already exists in your current rom. If this doesn't work, format data, wipe cache then flash the rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
I will give it a shot and let you know. Thanks so much! I was on stock ROM btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Cool, this should work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
Ok, this is a zip file. Does it have to be on the phone? If so, how do I put it there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Yes it does need to be there. If you have an sdcard just drag and drop onto it directly then flash in your custom recovery. Conversely, you should be able to boot into recovery and try connecting your phone to the laptop then dragging the zip over.

The longer method will be to Odin flash VRBLK3 and start all over from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
I am in Clockwork Mod recovery and my comp is not recognizing my phone as it did earlier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I don't use CWM but did you go to Mounts and Storage and select "Mount /sdcard"? Does it connect now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
I went there but it didn't seem to do anything when I selected mount sdcard and conversely didn't connect either
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Aight well since that failed, you have to do this the long way: Odin flash the VRBLK3 rooted image from your laptop onto your phone. Choose one of the two images for VRBLK3 and follow the directions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1984436

Edit: I realize I didn't ask but do you have an sd card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
That worked! Thanks so much. Now, what is the best practice for backing things up so that I don't have this problem again? Should I root first then backup? Do I still have to unlock bootloader? Just wanting to handle this properly from this point forward.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
It should be rooted already if you installed the Odin files from MrRobinson thread. It should come with either SuperSU or SuperUser correct? You also should still be unlocked but you can re-unlock using EZ Unlock v.1.2 from the following thread and you're undeniably unlocked. You'll hear a brief audio message if it worked.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32456-app-920-ez-unlock-14-easiest-way-to-unlock-your-bootloader/

Also, please perform a nandroid back in CWM so you have something stable to return to if something goes awry in the future. That backup would have cut all this down to one simple step. You don't need to be unlocked to perform a nandroid however you do need to be rooted with a custom recovery.

Lastly, perform an IMEI backup using the "Comprehensive IMEI Backup" thread in the dev section. Do this and save the resulting Synergy zip from backup methods A and B in more than one place not on your phone. This is more so a precaution because flashing things in recovery can and may result in a complete loss of connection with Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
If I don't hear a message does it still work? It did say it worked but I didn't hear anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That's really weird, which version did you use?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
V. 1.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
You have to use v1.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
Have to use 1.2 to hear it or to make it work? If make it work, how do I get an older version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Both.

In my prior Rootzwiki link, download v1.2. Uninstall EZ Unlock 1.4 then install v1.2 and properly unlock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
Ok, I uninstalled the 1.4 and am now downloading 1.2. Not sure how to install from my computer. I did a search for this do I have to download another program on my PC?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
No haha download it onto your phone then install it (from the phone) that way. It's an apk which is just the file version of the app itself. You'll have to go into your Downloads folder on the phone and tap it to install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
That worked! You have been incredibly patient and helpful. Thank you so much!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nctiger:
Here we go again. I am trying to do a nandroid backup and when I go into recovery mode I do not see the same clockwork recovery that I had before. Could I have lost that in the reflash of JB? If so, how do I get that back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Download EZ Recovery from the Play Store and install CWM 6 through this app. It should persist after reboots.

Now, here's a fair warning. If you intend to move onto AOSP JB 4.2 roms, then you need to install a newer version of CWM (or TWRP) that is compatible with the multi-user support of JB 4.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Clyde Tacoma:
SlimSnoop, just to clarify on this, can you use the MrRobinson method to root for the very first time? Long story short I recently got an S3 and tried to root with the 4.1.1/4.1.2 method that is the method most people seem to use and bricked the phone. I must have screwed up somewhere but I swear I followed the instructions to a T so I'm afraid to try it again. I've got a new one on the way back to me and was thinking about trying the MrRobinson method as it just seems overall more simple. Boot into download mode, use odin to flash custom image, use EZ Unlocker/EZ Recover to unlock and get CWM, make backups, flash custom roms, use my phone like it should be used, be happy.

So my two questions if you could answer them are.

1. Can you use the MrRobinson method if you are completely stock?

2. Does it matter which image you flash? Does it have to be the same build you are currently running? (Okay 3 questions)

I've been a good XDA user and tried to find an answer by searching the threads and your comment is the closest thing to an answer I could find. In the mean time I'm hijacking this thread :silly:...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedinegotiator:
On my Nexus 4 I get about 8Mbps while on cellular data. When I connect to my WiFi network I can barely get 1Mbps. I have a 20Mbps internet connection at my home. My other wireless computers at home get great speeds yet my Nexus 4 goes so slow. Does anyone know why my Nexus 4 would have such low speeds?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Is it just your Nexus 4? Are any other devices on WiFi affected as well?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedinegotiator:
My Sister also has the Nexus 4 and she has the same problem.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Okay well that doesn't really help narrow down the issue except the fact that it's a Nexus 4 problem. Do you have any other devices? Laptops, Desktops (with WiFi), Media Players, etc to run a speed test? If so, run a speed test on those devices, is the WiFi slow on those or are they fast?

What kind of router do you have?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
I did a side by side Wi-Fi test with a Galaxy Nexus and a Nexus 4.

The Galaxy Nexus was consistently faster by a few Mbps on download speed. The N4 was faster on upload speed.

Mi WiFi connection stays connected but its incredibly weak compared to my old HTC devices

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jocke_lulle:
As I said in another post. I also got slow download speeds on my n4. I got about 10Mbit/s down. My n7 get around 30Mbit/s down. Im using asus router n56 with the latest fimrware. I have tried to change every setting in the router but I cant get it to work. Playstore is also very slow.

The strange thing is that from time to time I have got fast download speed(40-50Mbit/s) but it has just been for a very short time.

It is really annoying! I dont know anyone else that got an n4 so I cant compare two units at the same place.

Now I compared three devices on my homenetwork. I got 8/11mbps on my n4 (stock 4.2.1):mad:, 33/13 on my n7 (stock 4.2.1):) and 39/13 on my sgs 1 (custom rom 4.0.4):). This is strange. The slow speed on the n4 isnt only appearing in speedtest-apps but also when downloading apps from market. The router is asus n56.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mancur:
N4. Stock Jellybean.

At home on a Verizon FiOS router, my N4 hits 30/25Mbps, which is MAX speed. I'm using WPA2 with " Compatibility Mode" selected, which I assume to mean 20MHz bandwidth.

At work, my download speeds were slower than a friend's Galaxy Nexus.

From that I would surmise that either the router or the router's settings are the culprit.

If you are experiencing slow speeds at home, I would try changing the 802.11n bandwidth setting.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgeissler:
My second N4 had the same slow WiFi as the first. Only improvement I saw was when I changed the channel bandwidth on my router.

So since you changed channel bandwidth the speed has been good? For me that change only improve speed for a short time.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Mindroid-:
I'm experiencing extremely slow wifi at home as well although sometimes it works fine.

Interestingly my wireless computer experiences the same slow wifi connection and nothing was changed on it,

except for bringing in the Nexus4.

I have not ruled out a router problem yet and the wifi at my job work well.

The router is Linksys WRT160N v3 running the latest DD-WRT. It supports b/g/n but only on 2.4GHz.

I exhausted every possible router configuration but none seem to fix the problem for more than a few minutes.

Others on the forum report good connection with this router and sometimes it works OK for brief periods.

I'm starting to think that it's really an issue with teh Nexus 4 sharing the router with other devices.

my Galaxy S3 connects to my router at 150Mb/s and my N4 only connects at 65Mb/s. That is on 5ghz.......slower on 2.4ghz. Speedtest are about 30% slower on the N4. This is on stock kernel.
