[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
To use adb commands in the command prompt you have to change to the directory where you have your android sdk tools installed on your computer. Maybe you can use the push and pull commands in adb to try to upload and download files to/from your computer and micro sd card.

From the directory that somebody mentioned above, try this:

adb push test.txt /dev/block/mmcblk1p1

I'm at work now, so not sure if that's the exact syntax, but see if it'll work using adb. Just make a test.txt file and place it in the android tools directory where you'll run the adb tools from on your computer. Perhaps I'll update later with more specific details when I'm home and can mess around with it myself.

Now, IF that appears to work above, take your microsd out and put it in your computer and see if the test.txt file was transferred. Good luck, I'm sure I'll mess around with it later myself!

Installing logcat
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
You can install CatLog from the market and it will run a logcat for you and save it as a txt file, no ADB or PC needed. Just don't forget to hit Record when running it.

I literally had the same thing as the other guy had. Pulled my card out to move a file over and then put it back in and no recognize. Tried to put it into phone, PC, another phone and nothing. Sucks bc I had my whole TiB folder on there plus all the kernels, ROMs and my only "current" TWRP backup. I know it isn't the same as you, but this is the 3rd person in 2 days I have seen where an SD just stops working.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
To me it looks like a code issue:

W/dalvikvm( 2742): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x41261300)

Now I don't know that much about the android layer on top of linux and I hate Java with a passion, but can you try wiping the dalvik? I have no clue if it'll work but it references to it, so I guess it's worth a shot? If there's a bad/invalid section of the dalvikvm, wiping it would force your device to re-create it and might help... I think. From what I can understand, dalvik will cache your apps so they run faster, if it got corrupted you may be having some unexpected results.

Someone else may be able to confirm or deny this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
Dalvik was wiped before I installed the ROM, before or after was the same.

I'll try again now though
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
Ok, once rebooted I get a message saying preparing SD card (checking for errors), but still I get no mounted card :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
If I use the KAT app to try and mount it I get

"Error, drive busy?:Exec error res=11"

If that helps?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
I guess at this point you'd have to either flash stock or ask in their thread. You could also ask in the K.A.T. app thread to see if Timduru has any idea what is causing this but since the problem is there without it, he'll probably tell you to ask in the CM10 thread...

I'm completely out of ideas now :( I hope someone can bring some more insight...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Have you tried "pushing" a file to the microsd using the adb utility in the Android SDK package?

This is just pure curiosity now, since you seem to have found a possible lead.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
Can I do it via the command line on the device?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Not that I know of...at least not the same way. To use the Android SDK tools (on your computer), your tablet has to be in APX mode. And APX mode is "a special low-level diagnostic and device-programming mode for NVIDIA Tegra–based devices".

Also, you can write to any partition...so you should be able to write to your micro sd card. I think that by doing this you can determine if it is in fact a hardware issue or not. If you have a confirmed working micro sd card that functions normally in other devices/on your computer, but you can't read/write to it through APX mode, it's gotta be a hardware issue on your transformer. APX mode is stored in the boot ROM, and can never be changed (source); therefore, it has nothing to do with your firmware or kernel that's loaded on your tablet.

Android SDK package (Windows):

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

I tried messing around with this a little bit last night like I said I would, but I couldn't get my transformer to show up using "adb devices". I'll look into it again in a little bit.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
You can use ADB without APX. In fact, if your device does not fully boot, chances are you can still access it through ADB and push/pull files( depending where it stalls in the boot process). All you need is USB debugging enabled in the settings.

But again, if the device itself can't access it, chances are ADB will fail as well. You can't do it in a terminal from the device if the sdcard is not mounted, because you can't write to an unmounted device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Interesting! Not to change the subject of the thread, but do you have any idea why my tablet might not be showing up using adb devices? I have only tried it in APX mode, not while the tablet is running. USB debugging is enabled, the driver has been re-installed, and my Android SDK tools are up to date. :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
I don't see it in ADB in APX either but I'm at work on a Mac right now, might be missing drivers etc. I don't remember tbh... I'll check it when I get home later tonight and let you know. I remember comparing drivers with someone here in another thread because they had APX issues too, and their drivers were like from 2006 or something, which made no sense.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Alright, sounds good! I'm interested to see Mr Paul's status on this too! I looked for quite awhile about this issue last night, without any success. It's strange, because I was running CM 10 and I believe I was able to use adb devices just fine. After going back to stock ICS it won't come up anymore...which makes no sense based on what I posted above. It shouldn't matter what rom I'm running when I want to access the tablet in APX mode.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
Stupid question time, how do I put in apex mode?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
There's no stupid questions. :) I'm sure someone, somewhere will come across this thread and have the same issue/questions as you, and they'll thank you for asking.

Hold the power button and volume up button until the screen turns black. Now you're in apx mode. When you plug the tablet into your computer, it should automatically install the apx driver. Side note: I've found that when you disconnect your tablet (while in apx mode) from your computer, and you go to plug it back in, it won't recognize that anything was plugged in, so you have to put it in apx mode again (even though it already is). Just hold vol up and power again for about 10 seconds, then you can plug it in again over usb.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
Yeah even in Windows in APX mode I can't ADB to it. But it is detected as "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices".

C:\Users\me>adb devices

List of devices attached

C:\Users\me>

However in TWRP recovery I can ADB to it, and while it's booting (you can shut it down, run "adb logcat" then boot it normally to see the boot sequence), up until it's booted. A little while back I upgraded and it would never fully start, adb logcat allowed me to find the problem and google for the solution... which ended up being just reflashing lol. I'm pretty sure APX is only for nvflash and "adb" doesn't actually know anything about it since it's not actually part of Android (I could be wrong).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
That's odd though. I just had mine working only a few days ago. Flashed stock ICS and adb can't detect it. Too weird, we'll figure it out eventually.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Paul:
Just about to go on holiday, so not going to beable to test anything till 3rd of Feb :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Okay, no problem. That should give me time to look into my adb issue. Have fun!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
This is precisely correct. No stupid questions, only redundant ones (which this isn't).

You are correct here. APX is for Nvflash and is independent of ADB/Android

Please don't take this as a rude post or commentary on your abilities, as that is not my intention at all. Do you have the Debugging button ticked in Developer Options? Sometimes the simple things get stepped over. I had on a problem like this a long time ago and uninstalled all my drivers (this was a phone at the time), reflashed firmware and multiple wipes, only to realize that when I had flashed back to stock originally, I had forgotten to tick the Debugging option. I went into Dev and ticked it and lo and behold, it popped right up.

Hey,

I hope this isn't the 10000. thread about this problem ;)

My brother's got a xperia sola and we made the update to 4.0.4. Now when he wants to turn it off, it just reboots. After that reboot it completely shuts down.

When he presses power and volume up it shuts down, but isn't there a better solution for that problem or do we have to wait for a fix by Sony?

Thanks in advance!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Snowstormzzz:
I had this problem using a Rom based on the oldest ICS (Was newest at that time).

Annoying as hell, as the only way to shut the thing off was to do a hard reset.

I got rid of it by flashing a different rom though, so unless he's on stock, that could be an option he could explore.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mihahn:
I think he will do a factory reset and try it, thanks guys ;)

You can force the shut down if you press volume down (or up) with power button and it works...

Hi,

[HTC Rezound] gleggie:
So i have tried all the solutions posted in other threads, but none have worked for me. When I was flashing a new rom, for some odd reason, most of my pictures dissapeared (i would say about 70% dissapeared).

I don't know why this happened, is there a way to fix it or get them back?
[HTC Rezound] JeramyEggs:
You could try flashing a back up. Google plus is good for something.
[HTC Rezound] chupajr:
What rom was it? Some of them wipe the internal sdcard. I lost a bunch of pics that way. :(
[HTC Rezound] brenuga:
You can also lose files on the sdcard by accidentally unplugging the usb cord before ejecting the disk drives on your PC. That risk is why your PC always complains when you do that. With mp3 players and camera cards, data loss seems to happen more rarely. If you unplug early while in your recovery, it's even worse of a risk.

This happened to me. The files may still be in a folder called LOST+FOUND on your sdcard, but they won't be in a usable format. Supposedly there are apps for pc/mac that can rescue them, but don't cross your fingers.

That is why it is always a good idea to regularly back up your images to your PC or to a service like Google plus or Dropbox. Sorry that happened to you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PeacefulCalamity:
Hey guys, so I'm trying to relock my bootloader using Flashtool by following the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1527159

Just one problem. My phone keeps disconnecting from Flash Mode (the mode you get when you hold the down volume key while turning the phone on as it is connected to the computer)

It disconnects from Flash Mode after around 30 seconds. I DON'T want the phone to disconnect while I'm flashing the Relock Bootloader FTF that I got from the link above.

Is the phone disconnecting from Flash Mode a usual thing? Should I just try and flash the FTF before the phone disconnects?

P.S. I unlocked my bootloader by using this method and rooted the phone with this method.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] element800:
I think your drivers aren't installed properly, try reinstalling them ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Yea make sure the drivers are installed and the newest flashtool. Also make sure to mount the phone to computer while on and in flash mode to make sure the drivers are installed.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PeacefulCalamity:
Thanks everyone.

Just one question: if I try to flash a relock bootloader ttf with Flashtool and it fails, would I have a hardbrick? Hardbricks are unrecoverable for the Xperia S, no?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
AFAIK hard-bricks are hard, precisely because you can't recover

However.. i don't think relocking could be dangerous

Your problem is 90% probably related to drivers wrong-installed
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nek0x90:
As far as I know, that's a driver related problem.

I'm experiencing the same issue, because in the computer of my work I'm able to flash kernels from fastboot, but I'm not able to connect my phone via flashtool, the led just goes green for like 3 seconds and then my phone boots (and the computer freezes LOL). On my personal laptop there are no problems.

Try reinstalling the drivers and try again.

Btw, which OS do you have?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PeacefulCalamity:
Oh, I have Windows 7 64bit.

But... I've determined not to flash anything haha. The only reason I wanted an unlocked BL was for Bravia Engine 2. Once I found out that Bravia Engine only works in the native music/video app, I stopped caring. I thought it would change the screen overall.

So I'm staying on that unlocked bootloader, unless I'm wrong w/ the BE2.

I would suggest you wait for this year's lineup of smartphones ;)
[General Questions and Answers] cs098:
try the xperia v, t or tx depending on where you are it should be in your price range. Comparing to the s3, they has worse specs (snapdragon s4 dual core and 1 gb of ram vs exynos 4 dual quad core and 1 gb of ram) the xperia camera is better and has a high res display and the v is water resistant and the t has a non removable battery. It is easier to unlock the boot loader for the xperias but the s3 has better development than the tx and the v ( its equal to the t though). the v has a 4.3 inch display while the t and tx has 4.7 inches

the xperias also has removable sd cards. Judging from you requests, the s3 should be better for you, Ubuntu will proabably be ported there first. :)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chileno4Live:
Hey guys

I am having an issue lately. My phone seems to be turning off randomly. It happens in my pocket most of the time, but one time i just left it on my desk, and a couple of hours later the phone was off for no reason.

Is this a common problem? I cannot bring this phone back, because I have bought it from someone else, and not from a shop.

Can it be linked to the power button? From my understanding is that the phone reboots itself instead of turning off when you hold the power button for a couple of seconds.

Thanks in advance.
