dead n7

Guys need.help here, had my n7 since it came out so no warranty available, been working flawlessly since day one,currently on the latest jelly bean version and waiting for kit Kat to become available. Any way last night it suddenly had some lag issues for.some reason, I went to the settings page to check for the kit Kat update, and the.screen just froze nothing I did made any difference ,so I shut the smart case which normally turns the.screen off, plugged the charger in and went to bed, it was about 40%.charged as I recall at the time it played up.

This morning I was still on the settings screen ,so didn't shut down with the case closed, and again unresponsive to touch ,I had to hold down the power button to get it to go blank and shut down, now though I can't get it to start at all ,and no battery charging symbol when plugged in. Done lots of searching and tried all things I've found ,long press of power after reconnecting charge lead, volume up and power, volume down and power all three buttons together, removed d back and checked battery connection, looked ok but disconnected and reconnected ,still blank screen ....I'm stumped here.and.no idea why it's now behaving the way it is ,anyone care to give some magic advice that can cure my dead N7.?

Sorry to hear this.

Have to ask - did you perform *every* fix in the OP? Often times, there's something that gets overlooked. For instance, did you try to charge via USB from your PC?

The OP is the best collection of fixes related to the issues addressed in this thread. If none of them work, you can try creating a thread in this forum and possibly someone else will have some insights for you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigga:
Yes plugged into the laptop via usb, and still no charge,I've spent the day searching various online resources and youtube videos trying everything I can find and think of,as to if I've tried them all I hope not,hence asking for assistance, because if I have indeed tried every known fix, then it's dead and thats not good.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billykxda:
Not good.

Have you tried posting in various forums (besides this thread!) asking for ideas?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
I'm in the same boat as you, but mine is still under warranty (purchased it back in January of 2013), so I guess I'm still under warranty. I've already called into ASUS and gotten an RMA #, so I guess it's going back.

Mine had an unlocked bootloader. Is that going to screw me over? From all I can tell, reading around this forum and others, my machine is fubar'd, so it seems an RMA is the only route. However, I have no way to relock the bootloader since it cannot be recognized by my PC anymore.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mykimouse:
What's RMA?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
Return Merchandise Authorization - basically, a warranty swap. I send my device in, they attempt to fix it. If they cannot fix it, they swap it out with another device. Of course, this is all under the stipulation that I didn't void my warranty by opening up the device, or unlock the bootloader.

Not sure how this will all turn out as I think my device is fubar'd anyways, so whether or not I get it back I guess it's not like I lost anything. Either I pay for it to be fixed (which I'll refuse) or I just have a bricked machine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigga:
Well as sad as it sounds I felt totally lost without my nexus, not the same thing using my phone, so as I'm pretty sure my pad was dead and never coming back to life I went and purchased a new one from carphone warehouse for £119 for the original version which suits my needs just fine, I don't think the latest one is that much better so saved some cash that way, just taking me ages to set this one up the way my old one was ......

Anyway, happy days again.

Good to hear!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bowser4:
Nexus 7 (2012 version), love the thing!! Rooted, running CM. Has been happy since I've had it but seems to have suffered from the battery level fault. Now wont boot.

Have removed battery & checked seating of connector - all OK. Have powered off, changed leads (using original), changed power sockets - all to no avail.

Can get into the bootloader & recovery image (TeamWin) but nothing more. Recovery reports the battery level at 83% as its been charging - this changes as I'm messing with it so it appears the battery is charging & discharging and reporting that its doing it. Have wiped cache etc and now its on the charger having been powered off from the recovery menu. Oddly enough when I get into the bootloader and cycle through the options to 'power off' - it hangs and wont - the only way to turn it off is to go through recovery.

Battery level is showing as full on the little battery icon which appears when you plug it in.

I'd really rather not reset it to factory settings & full wipe etc but will do of course if it will solve my problems.....Any other suggestions?

Hi,

I really need urgent help.

After rooting my Droid X2, I installed the Root Explorer app. I accidentally renamed some of the apps. After rebooting, I wasn't able to get to the home screen. I try to do factory reset by turning the power and the - volume button to do factory reset. Next, I reboot the phone and this message appear:

I didn't do any back up. Any suggestions is appreciated.

I'm running a stock rom but a blastoff kernel with root and cwm. I would like to go back to a stock kernel, except for root and cwm.

It there a flashable zip kernel which is stock+root+cwm that I can flash from recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
There is no such thing. Stock implies it's not touched, no edits, direct from the factory. In order to get root + cwm, it has to be modified and therefore is not stock anymore. Blastoff, Antox's, or any other GB kernel with root + cwm are all based off stock kernel source code with the the root and recovery added in, so what you're asking for you already have, and what you want is a contradiction.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kmandel:
I presume that those 3 have other changes other than root +cwm. I'm looking for a kernel with only the root+cwm change.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
There is no such thing, I get what your saying. Most of our modded kernels don't have much difference beyond root+cwm, so there's no reason not to use them
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theimpaler:
So on my Nexus 4, running CM 10.1 Nightlies, I have a strange issue with the software buttons.

When the "menu" button appears in 'legacy' applications that lack an on screen overflow menu, instead of a single tap on the navigation bar menu button opening the menu, it opens recent apps. A long press however, opens the menu. This has been the case since I flashed Cyanogenmod, and was actually the way I customised the button set up on my previous Nexus S. I presume, somehow, that the preferences have been transferred, and although functional, it is a tad annoying!

I waited to report the issue till the Navigation Bar customisation options had been merged into CM, but I can't fix the issue using the options now available. Also, I'm not accidentally hitting the recent apps button, I don't have huge fingers. :)

Anyone got any ideas? Much appreciated if you can think of a way of fixing it without wiping the thing and starting again...Or even if you just have an idea how the setting transferred!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Striderzin:
Hello, guys! I just want to clear some stuff before going through the flashing / rooting process! First of all, my Xperia P is 100% stock and I'm doing it because my SI number isn't available to upgrade yet (my firmware is 6.1.B.0.544 and it's the "latest" one ¬¬'). Is it really possible to upgrade to 6.1.1.B.1.75 via flashing? If so, how do I do it? Is this the step by step?

To upgrade the firmware:

1 - Backup my data so I won't lose any contact information / app files (which program should I use? Is backup and restore from Sony the best option?);

2 - Download and install the latest version of Flash Tool;

3 - Flash this ftf file (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2089118);

4 - How do I "flash"? Is there any specific option to click / to flag?

5 - After flashing, I restore my files/backup.

To root:

I haven't found anything concrete... Could you help me in this?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doctor_droid:
1. Backup apps apk by MY APK

Install my apk

Click on options n backup

2. Download flashtool...... Write this on google and click on the link something like flashtool.github

3. Entire process of flashing is given in a thread by spawk

5. To restore ur data.... Use same apps which u used for backing up

Well, thanks, guys!

It seems that it's not so hard at all... About wipe data from flash tool, is it secure? Won't I lose any features from the firmware since it's maintaining all the data? Wouldn't be better a flash wiping everything?

I'm sorry about all the questions, I just don't wanna miss anything.

Well, it's done! I've backup my stuff (messages, app data, save games, launcher config, etc) except phone configuration with Backup & Restore and then I flashed the firmware and restored everything back using Backup & Restore again.

It's working and it's a bit smoother! Thanks, guys!

By the way, is there any difference regarding battery consumption from ...0.544 to ...1.75?

Fixed the 8mp camera bug. But not for everyone.

Though popular opinion is that you needed to do a full wipe when flashing the FW. (Which I will attest to since it worked for me.)

Other than that we're still all waiting for the change log.

Greetings, 'lucky' new wp 7.8 user here.

BUT

as far as i know Bluetooth Share and Ringtone maker should have gotten support with the 7.8 update.

My problem is, if i go to those apps in the marketplace by a QR code, tells me 'it's not available for your phone'

The only weird thing i noticed is the app names on the market are translated to hungarian (i use the phone in Hungary), can the problem be related to the translation? Is there a way to install these two apps on a locked device (nokia dload)?

Thank you in advance.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=slide.cameraZoom&hl=en

These two apps are amazing if you want more control of your camera.

I have been a pro photographer for years and shoot with a pro quality Canon DSLR.

Lately I have almost never felt like dragging that camera around with me, but like most people these days I ALWAYS have my phone with me.

I used to carry a tiny point and shoot Canon with me along with my phone but that's a PITA also. None of my previous phones really thrilled me with their camera performance (including the two Rezounds I still have) but the camera in my N2 has been giving me super results with these two apps.

CameraZoom FX is a little easier to use as it doesn't have a bar of controls across the bottom of the screen that you need to keep your fingers away from. FV-5 does have more features however (the controls are basically a clone of a DSLR) and it has one feature that no other camera app has. It has the ability to save as a png which is a RAW file with no jpeg compression.

PNGs take longer to save/view and are bigger files but give a higher quality image than a compressed jpeg.

CameraZoom has a feature that I use occasionally that will take a picture with a voice command. Set it on that and then say smile and a few seconds later it shoots the image. Here is a pic I took with CameraZoom inside using available light. I printed an 8"x10" print from this and nobody can believe it came from a phone.

http://s361.beta.photobucket.com/user/jmorton10_photo/media/Camera-ZOOM_zpsbafd9ff2.jpg.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
I did a bunch more testing this morning after another poster said that the anti-shake feature drastically reduced image quality.

I never used that feature, I learned years ago to hold a camera dead still myself but I was curious about that claim.

Turns out, the poster was exactly right. The images I took using as basically suck.

They are MUCH grainier than the exact same shot without that feature turned on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] billku:
I believe voice commands are available with s-voice and the stock camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
I didn't realize that, I stumbled across the feature in CameraZoom while looking for something else.

There are so many cool options in these two apps that some are bound to duplicate the stock app features, but these two apps make all these options MUCH easier to get to and to use.

EDIT: I just looked through the options/settings in the stock TW camera app and didn't see any option for voice activation.

It may still be there and I overlooked it, but this just reinforces what I knew all along, all the options in these other apps are easily available with one fast click. You don't have to dig through menus of stuff trying to find or enable/disable a feature.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] webleeper:
I use Camera FV-5 over the stock camera just because of the quality of pics it takes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnnyvol:
I too find the N2 camera to be quite good and I just purchased FV5 to see how far I can take it. I haven't spent very much time with it yet however.

One thing I love about my DSLR is that I can set separate buttons for focus and exposure. Any way to do that with FV5?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
I agree 100%.

I'm not saying you can't take a good pic with the stock camera app, but it's much easier and a lot more fun using an app like FV-5.

It definitely beats the stock app quality wise if you save as a png file which is not even an option with the stock camera (I'm not sure why not)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
Not exactly how you're saying, but you can lock both the AF and the exposure so you can recompose and keep the exposure or AF point.

If you read through all the options/help docs etc on the site I posted it will explain all the options pretty well actually.

My phone has a problem waking up from deep sleep. I've lowered max CPU frequency to 368 MHz for less battery drain (only when screen is off, I'm using AnTuTu CPU Master).

The main problem is when I receive a call. The phone vibrates for 2-3 seconds, and then yet starts the ringtone. Sometimes it doesn't display the contact's name, just the number. If I leave it to ring, it'll display the name in a few seconds, but is really slow.

Any way to fix it without increasing CPU frequency?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Latrop:
I doubt there is a solution it would be due to the phone trying to process things at a lower frequency and if the phone is in sleep as long as you don't have any apps keeping it awake it will be sitting at 200 or 100mhz anyway
