I did a pretty extensive search for a solution to this and was unable to find one.

I flashed JB to my KF using KFU and TWRP and everything went fine. However after flashing and rebooting, the regular Kindle Fire logo comes up and JB starts. I can't get back into TWRP to go back to a stock KF.

I have no experience using adb or even how to set it up and all the previous posts that sorta resembled this problem were confusing and frustrating for me.

Please help a noob...

If the system actually loads select reboot then recovery. Flashing stock wrong will just make the situation worse please provide greater detail. The stock boot ani. Indicates to me that you don't have a bootloader the bootloader allows you to access recovery when the system fails to load. Without it your at a turning point that requires the use of a factory cable to put the bootloader in place so that you can thus enter recovery to restore, wipe or flash a new system. Post 9 you can purchase one from one of our dedicated members http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1392693. When you have it pm me I would be happy to assist you in recovering your device.

I can get into and use Jellybean on my Kindle. I have tried to use GooManager to reboot in recovery but it just restarts the kindle and goes right back to the kindle animation and the JB rom animation. When I try to get into flash roms it asks for superuser permission. If I allow it simply returns to the main screen.

There is another option but we will have to get together to get it done. It requires the use of an older version of Smirkit. Just simply install busybox and jrummies root browser, move a folder to your sdcard and run a script walla new bootloader and rewrite your recovery problem solved.

I'm trying to set up tasker to turn GPS on when I start Navigation and a couple of other GPS-dependant apps, but because I'm not rooted I can't use Secure Settings plugin or get the D-Pad to turn GPS on from Location Settings menu.

But the GPS switch on the Power Saving widget turns GPS on with one click, and it doesn't open the Location Settings menu to have me check the box. So what is it that makes it do that? Is it a script? If it is, can that same script be sent to Tasker? If not, can whatever it is be put into tasker?

I am sorry if this question is asked a lot...I did look back several pages and didn't find too many answers, except some additional complaints. I was originally going to get the S3 but I kept hearing people talk about bad signal and bad phone reception so chickened out and got the Razr Maxx HD. Truthfully I really do like it...but I am itching to root and play and with the root counter qe thing and the crappy camera (I take lots of pictures of my kids) I am starting to think that it isn't the phone for me so I am considering trading it back for the S3. I use my phone for work a lot though and definitely need a dependable signal for both voice and data.

All of the people in town (Phoenix) I have talked to say they never have any issues, but before dropping the hammer I wanted to ask the XDA community as it was always helpful with my Thunderbolt.

If there is a good thread available that I missed please feel free to chide me and redirect me to it :)

I have just updated from hboot 0.95 to 1.36. Now only a hand full of my ROM's boot now. I have tried them all. Only Viper X 2.71, OrDroid 11.2.0 & InsertCoin 15.0.0 boot up. I have read that the boot image needs to be updated to JB, so tied to repack some of my ROM with the TripnDroid Kernel - though, is the boot.img the same as the kernel? If not, I know where I've gone wrong. Does anyone have some real advice on how to remedy the situation or do I have to wait until the Chefs cook up a new boot.img or just d/l later version ROM. No rush really, Viper X has been has been my ROM of choice for 6mths.
[HTC One X] Marc199:
There is a modified boot.img that works with the new hboot.
[HTC One X] Random Pinenut Joy:
But aren't boot,images specific to each ROM?
[HTC One X] markb63:
Yes boot img's are specific to reach Rom,they contain the kernel and a ram disk.

If you have been restoring with a nand back up,you restore the boot img of the Rom you backed up,obviously some will work with the new 1.39 some will not,it states in all op pages what the requirements are and what hboot it's required..
[HTC One X] Random Pinenut Joy:
So repacking the boot.img, as I did at nibble.cc/repack/index.php. Will this work or does the specific boot.img have to be modified to load in the new hboot environment by the original Chefs
[HTC One X] XxVcVxX:
I don't think you need to modify your boot.img or repack it at all.

The tripndroid kernel is only for unsupported hboots, and the new hboot can also run ics or jb ROMs perfectly.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I have rooted the device. But as this procedure is in the download mode, is it related to rooted/non-rooted?

I just want to try another rom.

I have tried another way without modem.bin included and seems all the file could be uploaded to the device now.

But I still not sure about why the modem.bin couldn't been flashed:confused:
[Galaxy Camera Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pileiba:
some other solutions I came across where here.. https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall/issues/43 i.e. to try different versions of heimdell, try a 32bit operating system as opposed to 64 bit, and reinstall the samsung drivers. There is apparently a Heimdell 1.4 . http://www.glassechidna.com.au/2012/devblogs/heimdall-1-4-release-candidate-1/ . Lastly you could try a different usb cable and a different usb port. I think powered hubs sometimes work better.
[Atrix 4G General] Dan Law 001:
Hi, longtime ago I successfully rooted my MB860 using Superoneclick software. It was rooted, but I know that the boot loader is locked since it says failed to boot 2 every time I try to go to recovery mode. Therefore, I follow the instructions on the Cyanogen wiki site where they teach you to unblock the boot loader using RSD LITE software. Thus, I downloaded all the required softwares and start the process. But however, when I click start and the software proceeds in the first step, it asks me to power up the phone. I am confused, since my phone is already plug in the computer, so it is already powered up. I just unpluged my device since I'be already sent and reformulated my question so many times here and no one can answered.

Hello everybody!

A long time ago I could not wait for the official ics to come out so I installed one of the leaks. Well I want to go back now but I don't think I can just update the device from the menu. I do not remember which of the two leaks I installed so how can I find out? And how could I install the official one from att. Thanks a million guys, I tried searching but with no luck cause I don't know what leak I have.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Well, knowing that you are on a leaked version of ICS should allow you to downgrade to GB, but we do need to find out which leak you were on. Can you go to settings and about phone and take a screenshot or post what firmware version it shows? Once you determine which leak you installed, we can point you in the right direction for the downgrade file to flash. After you have gotten yourself back on to fully stock 2.3.6, you should be able to go into settings>about phone>check for updates, and so long as you are connected to a WiFi network, you will be able to download and install the official ICS for AT&T.
[Motorola Atrix 2] PhoenixNghi:
This is leak 1

leak 2 is 67.21.125
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RexEscape:
You can easily do this on a desktop computer. But how do you do it on the Note 2?

Set the browser on your Note 2 to Desktop. Now go to YOUR Facebook page (go to www.facebook.com and then tap on your name) and hover the stylus on the bottom right corner of your Cover photo to let the Edit option appear. Tap Change Cover and then Reposition... On a desktop computer you can easily do this with a mouse but how do you reposition the photo with the stylus or your finger?

Everyone knows the 'pink spot' of android cameras ( seems like android's patent :D ).

But annoying thing is the pink/purple 'dust'/'dirt'/'ghosts'/... shapes that showing clearly at white/bright background with and without flash. mostly at the top or around the picture.

Here is a good sample (found via google) : http://www.flickr.com/photos/jonblack901/5969646528/

at the top middle of the photo you can notice a pink dirt, also at some other places of the photo, custom pink shapes.

You can see it sometimes at sky's photos if you look closer.

I found its happen at every smartphone (include iphone), could happen also when you take a picture of object with dark background with flash (the area of background have these pink shapes).

At some devices that I've checked seems like there are square shapes in different sizes, at some its looks like a random shapes...

Why is it happens? because the camera module? the lens glass? or its just a problem with firmware (even though its happens with every firmware) or a software problem?

Seems pretty weird...

Trying Ubuntu 11.10

I tried using ubuntu 12.04, but the live usb application wouldn't recognize the .iso I got from pbay. It did see the 11.10 version so I went with that instead. Man! Why did I ever not use Ubuntu before!!! Really nice os. Anyway, with that being said, I downloaded SoupKit while on ubuntu like you instruct in your post, but when I click on install.sh I am seeing that it says Soupkit is already installed. So I don't see the prompt to run in terminal. Do I have to uninstall or delete the current occurrence of soupkit on this ubuntu install? Or do I continue on with the setup.sh file located in the soupkit folder? Also, I plugged my fire in while on ubuntu and I don't see a prompt for it to install any drivers, nor do i know how to located usb connected devices (Too used to Windows I guess, lol). Thanks again for you help, and hopefully I'm not sounding like a total noob!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Yeah sorry 11.10 is funky with soupkit during testing I really had to cheat to get a proper install try going with my prefab iso its far more simple and stable enough. I know the download is large that is because of it's own prepacked casper r/w. Drivers do not install on linux rather it is setup as udev rules that configure for a specific device lets just say it's different to avoid going into to much detail. Yes setup.sh is the next run if it doesnt run in terminal but that's not the proper way to run soupkit stick with the distros I recommend. If it doesn't find the distro in the dropdown try unlisted iso if you can`t find the iso when attaching start to fill the name of the iso in it will begin to auto complete.

so, don't know if this is a problem with my tablet, but in short, while gaining root access, the step where you pick the usb icon while in the bootloader always causes my system to hang. not sure if I'm not waiting long enough or what, but my computer has already recognized and installed the drivers for it. so my computer sees it, but it never actually gets to that point.

any suggestions? am I not waiting long enough? how long did it take you personally?

Hi

My phone suddenly stopped detecting all sim cards ( I have tried various working sims ).

It is running CM 7.2 and has been running cm 7.2 for a few months with no problems.

Today I took out the sim and put it back in to reboot, all was fine. I went to shower, came back and the sim suddenly stopped being detected.

I have tried to google but it seems most problems are to do with flashing a new rom and having the sim not work, my case is that the rom has been the same for a few months.

I have tried to flash different roms and I still have the same problem. I have a gut feeling it is the hardware that reads the sim that is faulty.

I have read something about a baseband, I dont know what that is but if it helps, when i go to the settings and click on 'about phone'

It says there is a baseband and it is version something. There are no question marks or anything like that.

I appreciate the help and would love some more troubleshooting suggestions.

The worst case scenario is unrooting it, flashing stock rom and send it back to warranty. I actually don't know how to do that so if anyone has a guide lying around please link me on that.
[LG Optimus 2x] asmerito:
I have similar problem with new boot loader.

Download getril app from play store and see if your baseband is OK. If not, download and flash matching baseband from development thread. You will loose all personal data and your apps after flashing. Then download new ril with getril and reboot. Good luck...

This method was no helpful for me. Maybe you will have better luck.
[LG Optimus 2x] cimore000:
Thanks for the reply,

When I first opened getril, it said RIL not found, I did not have one. I downloaded one and then it said RIL does not match. I then redid it on another firmware and it now says RIL and Baseband matches. Is this enough? The only weird thing is the baseband has canada and europe in it. I am from Australia. How do i tell which baseband/ril I need?
[LG Optimus 2x] asmerito:
First you flash BB, then download RIL with GetRil. Read completely through BB sticky topic in development section. All answers are there.

You can flash as much as you want, none of that will help. Had same issue once, flashed almost everything there was through SmartFlash, NVflash and all of that. This is what you need to do:

First, remove the battery from your phone. Write down the IMEI. Now boot up your phone, write *#06# and see if the IMEI that pops up is the same as the one you saw behind the battery. If not, let us know and I'll hand you the solution, but first check if the IMEI matches.
[LG Optimus 2x] cimore000:
I checked the IMEI and it matches.

I have some extra information if it helps, when I choose a random RIL from getril, the battery might become a ? mark and the sim card not detected error doesnt show anymore, however when I put it back to the original RIL, my battery bar starts showing the 'power left' and also the sim not detecting error shows again.
