Hello,

Isn't there a sound when we adjust the volume of the tablet with the buttons?

I think there is, and I cannot listen to it..while all notifications work fine (new email etc, alarm etc) and tablet isn't at mute mode..

What is wrong?
[Asus Transformer TF700] singalongjonl:
I never had a beep sound when I adjusted the volume on my TF700t. Maybe there is a way to change this in the settings. Otherwise find an app for it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Funny. I also thought there is, but now I tried it and there is no sound. Maybe you confuse it with your phone (just as I apparently did).
[Asus Transformer TF700] pspuser007:
I am(..probably was) above 55% sure that there is a sound :/

I've installed audio manager and as I was using the levels there(increasing them) --after each try I used the volume buttons to check for the sound--, I heared the sound..but now nothing again :p:confused:

That's weird :eek: :p

And yes I am sure I have one at my phone but I think(/thought :cool:) there was one at my tablet, as well..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] kmull4:
So I am rooted and unlocked using the freegee app. I attempted to install lifeless rom but the installation failed, since I wiped both caches and did a factory wipe I figured I was in the clear to reboot. The phone rebooted fine so I redownloaded the rom thinking I had a bad download. After I turned the device off and tried going into recovery, all I got was the lg logo and the black screen. Can't boot the phone or access recovery. I can get into download mode. Will try to use LGNPST, but unfortunately I work a lot over the weekend. My question is why did I get softbricked? I am clueless as to why I got softbricked and I don't want to make the same mistake twice, so any suggestions?

Edit

After leaving the phone off for about 20 minutes I tried rebooting and it worked! re-installed the freeglee app and installed a backup.. Now I am really baffled!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shook187:
It's happening a lot I think it has to do with the lack of development and testers.

no offense to anyone
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
It has nothing to do with that. It is something with the recovery is what we are finding out.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] HTCTerrorist:
If it should happen again Odin could be of some use to you, as you only have to have access to a tar file and your phones download mode, hope this helps for future reference, and yes I have been seeing it more with my S2 I'm soft bricking quite a bit lately but as stated above, Odin has saved my day many times over.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] kmull4:
Can we use Odin with this device? If so, maybe someone can create a thread with info on the process. I'm not exactly sure how I got in this predicament or how I got out of it. Maybe I should have re-downloaded the free Gee app after I wiped data and went through the process of unlocking the bootloader before trying to access recovery
[Sprint LG Optimus G] HTCTerrorist:
I could be wrong but I think there are device specific versions of Odin, so just find the one for your SIII, after that the process will be the same. I'll look into the device specific versions of Odin but as I said I could be wrong.

[HTC One X] maodevil:
HI this is my second day with my HTC One X International and i have search the forums and i haven't found a good solution for my problem y don't know if is hardware related or software related if somebody has a solution i would really appreciated ;) and how can i know if is a hardware problem so i can return it? I used an app called Proximity Sensor Finder but its always in 0.0 cm
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Do a factory reset or run a RUU to close out the possibility of a software quirk. If the problem still exists, return the phone.

Edit: also check if you have a case or a screen protector interfering with the readings.
[HTC One X] maodevil:
I did a factory reset i had a backup of my rom there and there is no RUU of mexico telcel and i have read that is mostly a software problem the only problem is if i return it i am not going to have a phone like for a month jajajaja so i want to be certain that is a hardware problem:crying:
[HTC One X] hojnikb:
My one x also reports 0cm distance from proximity sensor. And screen stays off when i end a call ?

what could this be ? my one x is rooted and has ARHD on it..

---------- Post added at 09:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

also with bright light it reports normal values (9cm)
[HTC One X] nagel:
I had this problem whenever I squat down while the phone is in my jeans rear pocket. My suspicion is that the phone flexed and the sensor is slightly misaligned after that. Flexing the phone back the other way usually fixes it.

In my case it had nothing to do with software

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PParcells:
So, I'm thinking I broke my phone or something here. After playing around with paranoid android for a while, and trying different sizes for everything, my screen is now super grainy, even when back to standard settings. I've played with stuff in the performance tab, and nothing seems to change it. I even tried a system wipe and reflash, and it still looks like ass. Any body else experience this?

so can anyone explain to me what bootloader is and odin and the status of whether or not i can i root i haven't rooted before
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootloaders
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drewdinie:
so basically when u unlock the bootloader u can mess around with your phone? is it rooted once its unlocked?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AZSALUKI:
Yes. Think if it as 2 levels of a hack. (I'm no pro so thus is a very generic description). With root you can do many more things than an unrooted phone (I rooted just to load all the apps in the multi window drawer). However, with an unlocked bootloader you can do even more (custom roms, overclock, nandroid.....which is a TOTAL backup of your phone, that can restore it to it's wxact state of when you nandroid it). I am rooted but did not unlock my bootloader (yet).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
You can definitely make a nandroid with a locked bootloader, my dude.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drewdinie:
ok so can i root my note2? i havent unlocked or rooted but i updated sooo...i dont want roms i just want rooted apps like beats datasync and maybe titanium
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AZSALUKI:
Lol.....like I said, I'm (obviously) no pro. This is my first samsung. Is there an app or toolbox or something I can get? Or do i have to mess with odin (I'm still not even clear as to what odin is). I used the app to inject root and when I try to boot in to recovery it warns about customs roms so I just cancel it. Can I do that and proceed without screwing uo my phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Don't mess with odin unless whatever instructions you're reading call for it. Flash roms with a custom recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AZSALUKI:
I'm not unlocked though? I can flash roms with just root? Sorry......still learning. I've only had HTC in the past and they were unlocked. I really just want to nandroid. What's a custom recovery that I can use without being unlocked? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
I don't know if you should be messing around with this phone at your tech level, brotha. Now you're asking a whole bunch of questions and I don't feel like being an android 101 guy tonight.

Honesty, google is where it's at. It's how I learned. Wikipedia, too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AZSALUKI:
Too late. I tried to backup in CWM and got that awful screen telling me i had unauthorized software and to head to verizon (and i haven't installed the OTA). Had to restore to stock and then reroot. I thought i had a grasp of this but i guess not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adampa1006:
The main feature to unlocking the Bootloader is to have a custom kernel. Which handles the way the CPU works, which in turn with a custom kernel improve performance, and battery life.

I was under the impression you had to be rooted to unlock the bootloader but I guess not now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] secularist:
Be patient. No need to hurry. Read up until you have more confidence and context. Sounds like you are learning fast though.

Sent from my SCH-I605 pimped with Beans6 and Perseus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
On the Verizon variant you cannot flash a ROM or a kernel without unlocking the bootloader. If you try, you will get the unauthorized software notice and be bricked. Rooting gives you admin level access to the phone (think of it as full access to all the folders and files). Odin is a piece of software that allows you to communicate with Samsung phones and should only be used for the bootloader unlock process or if you ever need to return to stock. As 1ManWolfePack said, you would be well served reading up on all of this before diving in, but be aware of the source...I have seen a number of non-Verizon owners commenting on flashing ROMs etc on the Verizon forums. All of this is very carrier specific...what works for Sprint for example will almost certainly not work on Verizon. Learn the terminology and then follow Adam Outler's threads. Good luck and enjoy...it's a fantastic phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FireWaterSandStorm:
I think what he's trying to ask is if you can root the phone without unlocking the bootloader AFTER having installed the recent OTA. I've seen the rooted stock ROMS and have wondered if you can just flash those without messing with the bootloader and gain root access, but alas, I too are nub at this and have just been patiently waiting for a clearer explanation and work around for the new OTA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
If you took the OTA, my understanding is they patched the root exploit and blocked Adam's bootloader unlock method. It's being worked on, but for now you need to stay stock unrooted. As for flashing ROMs without unlocking the bootloader, there was an early build of Beans that could be flashed, but that was weeks ago and I don't know if its still supported. Bottom line if you took the OTA and your phone is working fine I wouldn't do anything until Adam Outler and his team nail a new process down. The Note 2 is an amazing device...I have flashed CleanROM and Beans and flashed the perseus kernel but in reality in terms of actual day to day functionality it might only be 10% better fully tweaked...it's just that good of a phone out of the box.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] redskinsfan:
Here's what I did. I had a rooted phone using the ExynosAbuse app. Then I did the ota when it first came out and that unrooted my phone. To regain root, I followed these steps.

1. Using the steps on this site (galaxynote2root-dot-com; can't post a link yet; once you're on the site look for the instructions for the verizon version of the note 2), I gained root again. Basically what it does is use Odin to flash a root injected stock rom.

2. At this point I had root again but lost my exynos patch. I downloaded the ota rootkeeper app from theplay store and backed up root.

3. I then did the verizon ota patch again. Now I had the exynos patch but lost root.

4. Used the ota rootkeeper app to regain root.

So it is possible at this point to have root and the ota patch.

Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 45Wheelgun:
This worked perfectly for me. Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FireWaterSandStorm:
I bought a new GN2 the other day and had the OTA installed - I just tried this and it worked like a charm. Now I can finally set up my phone like I like it. Thanks for this!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciniob:
I tried the ExynosAbuse APK. It didn't work. I got a message that said "...unable to root device." I searched for and applied the ota update from Verizon prior to trying ExynosAbuse.

So, still not rooted, i then downloaded Odin 3.07 (I think??), downloaded Root66 root exploit, expanded root 66 with Seven Zip, and then rooted my Verizon (virgin) Note 2.

I am now rooted. And I have the ota that closed the security risk applied. Also, I used Voodoo Root Keeper to un-root while I took yet another ota from Verizon. I then re-rooted w Voodoo. And I certified the root with Root Checker.

I suggest using the Odin method.

Go to www.droidmodderx.com to find this root method or ask me and i'll step you through it.

I chose not to unlock the bootloader (so far...). The process is very involved. And as mentioned in an earlier post, the Note 2 is good enough out of the box.

There is an apk to unlock the S3. My guess is that someone will create that for the Note 2.

And yes, I wanted to root so I can fully use Titanium Backup Pro.

I have an S3 that I unlocked, rooted, and applied Beans Town Stock rom, and then cyanogenmod10 m2. But I could never get Verizon Visual Voicemail to play. So I applied Jellywiz and scrapped Cyanogen. VVVmail now works. And, so does the Note 2 pop up mini browser.

So in sum, just root the Note 2 for now and be patient, an easy unlock apk will eventually surface as it did for the S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zkravinz:
I was able to gain root this way as well. My stock GN2 with the OTA installed, no prior mods.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] universexda:
I had root using the "one click" ExynosAbuse.apk and was able to keep root after I did the OTA update without needing the Odin flash in step 1. described above. If you have used the Exynos exploit to root your phone and you have a locked bootloader like me, you only have to do step 1. above if you have not already made a backup with OTA Rootkeeper before you or Verizon do the OTA update of your phone.

If you have root from the ExynosAbuse exploit and you have made a backup with OTA Rootkeeper all you need to do is restore the backup after the OTA update runs. The trick for using OTA Rootkeeper is to click the "Temp. un-root (keeps backup" button after you make the backup or sometime before you or Verizon runs the OTA update. That creates a Restore button that you click after the OTA update runs. That restored root for me after the OTA update. Piece o' cake.

(As I did, before running the update, I would recommend going into SuperSU and unclicking the "Preserve root across OTA update" checkbox. The backup made by OTA Rootkeeer should be good enough. It was for me. Maybe I'm paranoid but I didn't want to get in the way of the update.)

Take care and good luck.

You can root your phone without unlocking the bootloader. Let's just say that unlocking the bootloader gives you full control over customizing your phone while rooting your phone gives you partial control.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Picolini:
I don't think any of the steps here answer this question I have:

Can you root a Note 2 that has never been rooted or unlocked and that is running the VRALL4 update? Just root, not unlock the bootloader. I can't seem to find any information on this. A friend wants to get root to install a few apps that require it, she doesn't need the bootloader unlocked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciniob:
Well, I don't know for sure if you could root after the update but as I recall, rooted, then took an ota, then got another ota adviso. So I temp un-rooted with Voodoo, took the second ota, and then re-rooted and all was fine.

Hello I bought an LG optimus net (l45c) on ebay, and it was working fine untell It started booting all the time in recovery mode. I managed to flash a diffrent recovery using adb commands, but now it wont boot past the LG logo. I can still get into emergency mode though, and have tried to use KDZ but it just says PHONE NOT FOUND. Is there a way to fix this error?

You dont have a backup on the phone you can restore or a rom you downloaded that you can flash?

I have ROMs to install, but they're on the Mac, and not on the phone..... it is wiped (except for the TWRP recovery).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alexandre-P:
ODIN is not available for MacOS X, but you can use another software called Heimdall (http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/) to flash a stock ROM into your phone.

Another way to make a (custom) ROM available to flash in TWRP would be to use a microSD card. Use a microSD card reader connected to your computer, and copy your desired ROM into the microSD card. Then, place the microSD card into your phone. TWRP should be able to read the content of your microSD card, and flash the ROM.

Finally, a third way -- I never used that, though -- would be to use ADB sideload capability to sideload a ROM into your phone using ADB. More info about this in the TWRP site (http://teamw.in/ADBSideload).

I don't think you can USB mount your phone into your computer and manage the internal and external storages from your computer while in TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
Or... Get adb for Mac and just do adb push <zip> /sdcard/<zip>

Then navigate to it in TWRP and install.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alexandre-P:
But these two solutions need a running ROM, right? Or can you connect to your phone through ADB or through MTP while you are in TWRP?

Because Hog Milanese's problem is he wiped his ROM and does not have a ROM in his phone right now. Taking a quick look at TWRP's options, I did not find a way to MTP-connect the phone to a computer nor enable ADB (except for the ADB sideload command) while in TWRP... They work when in ROM, but not when in recovery.

Grab an SD card, out pop it out of your phone, copy zip, plug back in, reboot recovery do it mounts your SD and flash away.
