[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bandalo76:
My One X suffered an unfortunate bath in a spilled beer over Christmas, and it's mostly toast. Still boots, recharges, and seems to connect to the network fine, but the touch screen doesn't work at all. The display part works fine, with just a small watermark near the USB connector. I've tried the usual "bag of rice" type tricks, and I don't think it's coming back. (beer is harder to clean than water)

Without the screen working, how can I be sure this thing is "clean" and completely wiped before I put it on eBay for parts? After 15-20 reboots, the screen DID work again for a few minutes, then stopped.

Any other tips or ideas? I've heard of some people doing a "flush" with isopropol alcohol in these cases. Worth a shot?

Thanks!

If you are using twrp boot into it and use the volume and power buttons to wipe it. You could even boot into bootloader and use fastboot to wipe.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bandalo76:
I can get into TWRP, but can't do anything once it's there.

Any idea where I might find instructions for wiping via FASTBOOT?

Ahh thought you could still use the volume keys to select in twrp

Hi all, before anyone bash me here. I've done some web search and forum search. Just can't find relevant topics of this problem. Hope some of you can feedback positively. Thank

1. Set an alarm, repeated on Sat & Sun with tones & vibration

2. It goes off on time. Nothing was display on lock screen, notification area or setting area.

3. Tap into clock, alarm clock screen, found nothing to stop alarm.

4. Volume rocker, power buttons are not able to snooze or dismiss alarm either.

5. Last option, POWER OFF DEVICE!

Tell me if there's some silly settings that I'm so noob to know.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drcujo:
Did you try and cancel alarm in notification menu?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chanlman:
Refer to my point #2, nothing was displayed in notification area nor status bar. There was no cancel or dismiss buttons anywhere!

what do you see on your device?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chanlman:
i just did a factory reset.

set an alarm. when it goes off, there is a bell icon at Lock screen.

the root cause was that I used multi users lock screen. it just disable the alarm dismiss/ snooze feature.

anyone faced similar problem?

[HTC Amaze 4G] F9zSlavik:
Both are running latest Energy as it seems to be the most stable rom. We are having two issues.

First issue, we can not view or send text messages from a specific person. We have to delete the history and then we can view/send messages.

Second Issue, Same as above except the stock or any other text messaging up stop working, only through a wipe and reload can this be fixed.

Third, Both phones would not go passed the start up animation. Had to wipe and reload.

4rth, Phone will be on then turn off without any notification. Need to pull battery then it works.

There are more issues.

I'm sure this is nothing hardware related, more software related.

Is development for the Amaze dead? Most roms either still need a lot of work while others have not been updated in months.

I had an atnt S3, I loved not having any issues. ;,(
[HTC Amaze 4G] kazzxtrismus:
Soff?

What bootloader.?

Did you double flash? (some say it helps)

Here is my process

Super wipe

Flash

Fix permission

Boot

Boot

Flash again

Fix permission

Boot

All boots are cold full boots not quick etc

If you want to flash app data etc from another rom your asking for problems

If your on tmobile there are mms issues that some roms need a fix flashed too. (dunno which tho.. I'm on wind)

If you swap mms apk's some just don't work well with our phones.. Get/use/keep the right one (as system) then add chomp or gosms or whatever

[HTC Amaze 4G] Ninjistix:
there's been lots of new rom releases for the amaze recently since CM10 got data working, and id say speed rom or fourth bar infusion are among the most "stable" and "best" looking roms out... personally i would get a superwipe that krook6023 posted earlier somewhere in the Q&A section, flash super wipe and flash a rom or flash back to stock and start over again because it sounds like you did something wrong and what recovery are we using to flash these said roms?
[HTC Amaze 4G] stevedebi:
I've been on NRG since I got my Amaze, and I don't have these issues. The only problem I have is an occasional lock up when using BT, but that is very rare. One thing you might do is a reset from recovery, and then do not restore the phone - manually reinstall all programs. It is possible that your restore is putting problems back into the device.

This would include not using Google to backup your settings before reset.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomaszek95:
Hi,

I have a problem with my xperia x8. I was using minicm10 and during this i got rid of debugging on notification every time i connected the phone to usb so i turned off the debugging. The problem started now when i wanted to change the rom and kernel because of minicm10 being really slow. I connected the phone and flashed the kernel to the stock and when i turn the phone on it stops booting on "sony ericsson" sign and doesnt go any further.

I think that it happens this way because i have the usb debugging off but i cant change it cause i cant turn on my phone. SEUS says that everything is ok with it and there is no update for my phone.

So i ask if there is any other option for enabling debugging on in my situation or method for changing kernel so to make it work.

Please help, i dont want to go to the service.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgt. meow:
You can repair with SEUS. It will download the 2.1 ROM and flash it directly to your phone. zi'm not sure whether the bootloader is locked again though. And did you format /system, /data and /cache before flashing stock kernel?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tubular:
It doesn't really bother me because I think it's just the way the screen is but if someone else could confirm that would be great.

When you hold your Nexus 7 in portrait mode and angle it so you're looking down or up on it even the slightest bit, you can see subtle horizontal lines. These lines are only invisible if you're looking at it dead/straight on.

Normal? Looks almost like scanlines. If other people have this I'm just going to assume this is the way the screen is manufactured.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killa12222:
That is probably the digitizer for touch sensing
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tubular:
I don't know about that. It actually looks like the edges of specific pixels. I think I've seen the digitizer lines you're referring to, I've seen lines cut into the glass criss-crossing but you only see them when you shine a light on the screen and the line are in the glass. This is not the case here, these lines are on the pixels of the screen and they're visible without shining a light on the screen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ucubz:
Can you take a picture? As far as I know digitizer looks like very small dot not line.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tubular:
I don't have a camera that can capture this I think. It's visible with an eye but a camera will just muddle the details of the pixels.

It's really unmistakeable with the eyes. Look at an app icon with the screen dead in front of you in portrait, then tilt the device either a little down or a little up and the app icon will have something that looks like lines running through it. The whole screen should have lines running through it horizontally. Nobody else has that?

EDIT: I think this is why.

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nexus-7-test-jelly-bean,3249-5.html

Look at the pixel arrangement, those black gaps are what I think I'm seeing. Of course they look huge and black on a microscopic level but with my eye on a macroscopic level they look like subtle lines that are only visible in certain angles. So if this is true, everyone should be seeing these lines when they tilt the screens up and down? Either that or my screen is jacked up.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onslaught71:
Just rooted and flashed my tablet, since then it will automatically click things on its own. Not sure what would cause an issue like this, any help is welcome.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tubular:
Not sure if it has to do with the rooting. Hardware-wise I've seen this happen on other tablets before for the following reasons:

1. Their fingers were wet or they were in a moist/steamy area. The screen detects the moisture as touch events and spazzes out.

2. Some units spaz out with touch events happening for no reason when connected to a charger. I never really found out whether tha tablet was defective, the charger was defective or their utility power source was defective.

3. Their screen was really dirty with lots of oil and fingerprints and the spazzing stopped after they cleaned it.

I can reproduce spazzing out on my Droid phone if I put rubbing alcohol on a tissue and wipe over the screen protector to clean fingerprints off of the screen protector. It will spaz out and start touch and drag events everywhere. I notice this as the lcok screen slider moving left/right rapidly and the dialpad for the PIN unlock randomly presses numbers everywhere making it impossible to do anything until I dry off the screen protector, turn the phone off and then back on.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onslaught71:
I did some troubleshooting, cleaned the screen, unplugged it and it Still does it. Before i rooted/flashed the new rom i didnt have this issue. i might just need to reflash the rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] porshce2:
My s3 was running on Wicked Sensation and it was working perfectly. All of a sudden, my power button kept screwing up and then the phone randomly turned off. It was stuck in a boot loop but it turned off at random points in the boot process. It got as far as the wicked sensation loading screen a couple times but it didn't make it pass that. Next, I tried to clear cache and do a complete reset and that got the same result. I decided to restore my nandroid of CM10. Oh it takes a couple attempts to get to recovery. Most of the time it doesn't make it past the Galaxy s3 screen and turns back off. But eventually it made it to recovery and I was able to clear everything again and restore my nandroid back up. Now when booting, it occasionally makes it to the set up process and shuts back down. I was eventually able to complete it and the phone worked for 5 minutes but then it reset. I then decided to retry the nandroid back up and I eventually got back to the set up. Since that, I have not been able to complete it but I got to the gmail screen multiple times. I'm not exactly sure what the problem is.

At first I thought maybe it was the power button being pressed down by something but comparing it to my dad's S3, it looks the same so as far as I can tell it's not that. I'm not at home but I will try to unroot and use Odin to flash back to stock. I'll update this then but until then, does anyone else have an idea what I should do? It doesn't seem like going back to stock will work but I've got my fingers crossed.

UPDATE #1: Well this is strange, if I keep the back door cover off just a bit it seems to work. Hmm.. I'm not sure if that's just a coincidence but I'm not willing to completely put it back on til I get home. Oh and if the screen times out it takes a while to turn it back on. I hope this isn't the symptoms of a pre-motherboard failure that some people are reporting... JK it turned off again

UPDATE #2: Okay so now I have another problem. The phone doesn't stay on long enough for me to unroot.. Damn.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dante32278:
Sounds like something went wrong with whatever you flashed...can you get into download mode and stay there without the phone powering down? If so, Odin back to stock: if not, u have a defective power button and you should see Sprint.

[HD2 General] gotojanoo:
Hi Guildies,

Bought this best toy hd2 today from CL. Its already rooted and came with 4.04 cyanogen. and came without sd card.

So i read a lot of forums and i was wondering about some basics.

1 SHould i go with HD2 Android SD Development OR HD2 Android NAND Development

2 I saw lots of videos about native sd roms

3 I already have CWM recovery. do i need to keep CWM or should i install 4EXT.

As i had used original android gears like htc evo 3D , galaxy s2 i was wondering which method can give me flexibility to flash any roms without connecting to PC.I just wanna flash easy from SD card.I am a flash junkie , i flash roms so often. Thanks to all developers

Any advise will be greatly appreciate. I don't have even Tmobile but i bought this toy to just play as i heard it can run so many OS.
[HD2 General] Rahul7301:
You require to search and read in the forum as much as possible, since there are many things to be tried on hd2. Believe me, it could take months for you to understand how things work on this phone and which ROM do you prefer as a daily driver or what you would like to have on your NAND and SD. Also, since you aren't using TMOUS version, you have to be specific for trying out roms for your device, but generally majority of android roms are compatible with both versions. 4EXT Recovery is the easiest option for flashing android roms directly, which also does not require any installation.

For native SD method and to flash roms directly from your SD card, refer the Native SD thread.

Should be able to, no problem. I have a Tab, and bought Colors for my wife and two of my kids.

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------

Are you really under the "all" tab? The default when you go to "My apps" is "installed", and you have to scroll sideways to get to "all" and from there you can download them Or just go to the app in the store and there should be "install" instead of "purchase" or whatever it says there.

(I'm suggesting this because I made that mistake myself and couldn't for the life of me find my apps when I got new phone!)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hwong96:
You have to install them. Go to the Play Store and open "my apps" (underlined down arrow). Go to "ALL" tab and install on your device. Repeat for each app you want on the device.
