[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] x10user2011:
Hey can anyone help me fix the issue I'm having? I can't flash roms because it keeps giving me the status 7 error when I flash the rom zip file.. how do I solve this status 7 error? (using xperia s w/ unlocked bootloader)... I don't think im using the latest CWM BUT it says if i flash the latest cwm I have to flash my rom right away or else I lose my recovery (which I will bootloop)? is that true? :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] doctor_droid:
Status 7 error usually comes when u dun have the right kernel for the rom

Check ur zip file

It should have a boot.img file

Extract that boot.img

Flash that. Img file through fastboot

And then boot into recovery and try flashing zip
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
Hey everyone, first time posting, but followed this forum for a while now.

Ok, so I had been running CM10 on my ICS S3 for a while, but wanted to start fresh and upgrade to JB, and see how I liked it. I followed this link:

androidrootz.c o m/2012/10/how-to-unroot-samsung-galaxy-s3-no.html

to flash my stock ROM back to the phone. (Hope linking is permitted, if not I apologize). I am on Mac and therefore used Mobile Odin Pro to help me achieve a fresh S3. I started at step 4, bc I didn't care to reset my flash counter. Everything was going smoothly until I hit step 15. It's here that the phone will flash the Samsung boot screen momentarily, then show the "blue droid" running script for less than a second, and repeat over and over again.

I've attempted to put it in recovery/download(is there a difference between the two) mode, but the phone repeatedly does what was just described. What options do I have to get this phone back in working order?

Please help me, King Newb, if there is actually any help that can be given. I really don't like using my old iPhone as my primary again. I just want my S3 back, preferably running JB and rooted. Please and thanks guys.

Out.

Actually, you can't post links cause you're a new user.

Here's what you should follow: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1822308

To get in download mode: Hold Vol down+Home + Power button

To get in recovery mode: Hold Vol up+Home + Power button

Instead of getting CWM, I would suggest getting TWRP, which can be done by downloading goomanager from the play store. (After you're done flashing stock rooted JB from the link above).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
I am on Mac, is there an alternative to Odin, or a version that runs on OS X?

Thank you for putting me on the right track
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Mobile Odin or Heimdall.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
OK, I need a little more clarification. My phone doesn't boot, so are you saying that I can use Mobile Odin right on my Mac, and is it possible to link me to a proper copy of Heimdall? Also, is there perhaps a step by step instruction set for getting me back to a functioning phone? I clicked your link and found a ton of information, but still unsure which set of steps I need to follow.

Thanks again for your patience.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Oh my bad, I replied fast (covering a lot of threads right now). Mobile Odin won't work.. And I haven't seen Heimdall around here. Sorry.

The easiest way would be to use a PC. I'll keep looking for what can be done on Macs (you should do the same ;) )
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
I followed the steps to the link (used virtual machine) but when I get to the step where you press start, Odin just says "all threads completed. (succeeded 0/failed 0). So I think I'm getting close but not quite there yet.

Would it have something to do with the boot loader option? Just curious because of the boot loop I've been stuck in. Btw, I can't get my phone into recovery mode, however download mode still works fine, if that matters.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
Another quick update. I've now been able to get into the phone by holding both volume buttons and the power button. Phone boots normally with cm boot logo. However the phone is completely wiped except for stock apps it comes with. This gives me a little more hope but still not sure where to go from here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HungJury:
Bump. Can't anyone point me in the right direction? My situation is quite unique, as I have found another person explain it happening to them during my search. Want to get this fixed ASAP.

Thanks!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Yeah, I would try that. I'm not to familiar with mobile Odin. I do know that after running certain roms, if you Odin to stock you need to do a factory reset from recovery after the Odin flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
You're not going to be able to flash stock via odin if you can't get into download mode.

What OS did you come from? What did you do just before this all happened?

Try recovery mode again (vol up + home + power). Release only the power button when the phone vibrates and you see the blue script in the top left corner. Report back

Maybe you don't have cwm installed anymore since you wiped your phone. Try downloading rom manager and flashing cwm recovery then see if you can get into recovery mode.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Phone won't boot, can't use Rom manager to flash cwm. I stand by what I said. Flash to rooted stock, use goo manager (or Rom manager) to install custom recovery. Dl and flash Rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
Mobile Odin works much like the desktop version. The Odin package usually has a recovery so CWM or TWRP will be replaced by stock recovery. Although mobile Odin does have the ability to exclude recovery from the flash. So you will have to get back into down load mode use the desktop version of Odin to stock then flash cfroot with Odin. Now you should be able to get into recovery as cfroot has CWM

Yes, there is a driver problem in the kernel as I've heard so it won't be fixed unless T-Mobile releases their own update or the kernel sources are released (Please correct me if i'm wrong)

[Q] liquidsmooth rc9, with the recommended 20121212 singed gapp.

"unfortunately ** keyboard has stopped" keeps popping up. I have tried installing a new keyboard and setting it default, but it stops too.

After searching, I tried going to manage apps-keyboard and clearing data, and going to manage apps-dictionary and clearing data, which did not work.

I have done full wipe and install twice, which got the keyboard working on another install, but that is not working either....

full wipe with cwm-

format sytem, data, and cache 3x each...!

Any other ideas? Can I manually delete something?

Aha! Yeah I doubled checked, it is gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip that I also tried...maybe I had not wiped it correctly when switching over. Also that was before I switched over to team recovery, which seems to wipe better.

Thanks again for the advice.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlphaNoble:
Hey guys,

So I just got my new Note 2 from Amazon. It is running VRALJB. If I plan on rooting and unlocking the bootloader at some point in the future (not like next week, but probably in like 3 months or more), should I accept the update, or just keep it on VRALJB?

Also, I got this phone by using another lines upgrade and signing a contract on that line. During checkout, I had to select from various data plans, and I selected the 2GB per month plan. On the line I am going to activate it on, I have unlimited data. Am I safe to activate it on my unlimited data line? Or is the 2GB plan I selected somehow connected to the phone?

Thanks for your help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hamsterskate:
Dont update! Root and freeze sdm 1.0 so you dont get the update.

If im not wrong I think you can switch the phones on the lines and still get unlimited data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TonikJDK:
Fwiw I agree with everything hamsterskate said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nunyazz:
Seriously? You didn't see all the post and the pinned post that say to not accept the OTA? :confused::confused::confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ILMF:
root and unlock now...

This.

If you don't root and freeze it you will be left with a locked bootloader because Verizon will force the update on you.

So you either take the OTA and hope that by the time you are ready to run a custom ROM that the devs have come up with a new unlock method, or you unlock and root now using Adam's unlock thread.

There is also a flashable zip that will give you the OTA minus the locked bootloader so you can still run pretty much stock until you decide what you want to do. But you have to be rooted with custom recovery to flash it.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twotone8:
Reading about the release of super hexagon drew my attention to the fact that the nexus 7 has a noticeable amount of input lag compared to my galaxy s. Is this something that could potentially be fixed with software, or are we stuck with it hardware wise? Could a custom ROM possibly produce different results? I know the delay is very slight, but it does make a big difference with certain games.

Here's the info

Old post but I thought I'd share this: I am playing Super Hexagon on a Nexus S and I noticed noticeable input lag difference between two different kernels - the CM10.1 default one and the latest AirKernel (the AirKernel had almost unnoticeable lag, but suffered in other ways while using the OS). So, these are my 2 cents :)

I'm interested in developing ROMs for the Thunderbolt. I imagine I should start out building stock ROMs before I move to building ROMs from source.

What programs/tools are used?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Windows or Linux? It is also better with a 64 bit Os.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
Windows. Not sure of the bits of this old thing... haha. I'd imagine its probably not a 64 bit system.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
I'm not positive but I don't know if compiling certain roms is possible without 64bit. Your best bet would be to download a 64 bit version of Linux. Get apktool, meld (for diffing files), and you need the Android sdk and java 7 installed on your system. I personally use Linux Mint 12 with cinnamon 1.4 installed. I like mint because it let's you right click a file or folder and grant superuser privilege. Plus basically everything that works with Ubuntu 12.1 works for mint 12.

I have been trying to flash CW Recovery to my TPT for a few days now and I just figured out why I kept getting the "device not found" error in CMD.

I have the TPT ADB drivers installed. When my TPT is in storage mode when connected VIA USB, the drivers are there, but when I do charge only mode, device manager says that the drivers are not found and when I try to install them again from a specific folder, it can't.

Why is this happening?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] mtvento:
R: [Q] ADB Drivers work only in storage mode, not charge mode.

Probably the reason is that "charge only" mode keeps only the power wiring of the circuit active, while all the logic is switch off, so you don't having any device connected but only a charging tablet. Why do you switch to charge only?

Question [Q] Any Fix for No Picture Messaging?

[Q] Any Fix for No Picture Messaging?

Hello,

FYI I have looked using the xda forum search functions and cannot find the question or answer for this.

Is there a fix for this, anyone? I can't send picture messages. Receive seems OK. I can receive picture emails, and have received a couple of MMS with small pictures. I just cannot SEND. I have searched and have not been able to locate the question asked or answered, especially for this ROM. I have been on XBSA ICS ROM v5 for a while now. I have most issues resolved (keys, text message length, etc.), BUT, I cannot seem to send picture MMS no matter what I try. Messaging app and GO SMS Pro both stay stuck on send. I have tried:

- GO SMS (great for text, no picture send)

- regular Messaging app (inverted and not inverted, whatever that is)

- Multiple settings (preserve image size, don't preserve image size, manual entry of APN, etc., etc.)

- I have tried using the mms.apk for ICS from here: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1591989

- Before that (above) I used mms-non-inverted.apk that was in the XBSA v5.2 ROM (or the original ROM, whichever it arrived in)

- I have viewed the suggested links presented when starting this thread (clearing messaging app cache, etc.)

My APN (Straight Talk) is set up; calls, texts, internet, GPS all OK. Is this a network issue? Baseband? If so, what/why?

My phone is LG Thrill P925 with XBSA SU670 ICS ROM, 'Jeckyll and Hyde' kernel with no additional clock changes

[Asus Transformer TF700] louiscar:
I wanted to convert my external sdcard to ext4 so I can create a symbolic link. Mainly because one of the apps I use won't see the sdcard (devs tell me it's because the tf700 isn't using mass storage drives apparently) and I thought this might solve the problem if I could put a link on the internal card that pointed to the external. I'm aware that symbolic links cannot work with FAT32 partitions but will between ext4/3/2 partitions.

I formatted the card with minitool partition and the TF700 wouldn't mount it. It shows up in settings > storage as a MicroSD with a Mount option but this simply does nothing. Having trawled through some thread someone provided this script to mount an ext4 card.

mkdir /Removable/MicroSD
mount -o noatime,nodiratime -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /Removable/MicroSD
chmod -R 777 /Removable/MicroSD

Which should be done at each boot. This seemed to work as I got to the card and was able to manually copy something to it but it seems to be flakey and unreliable. eg. a picture copied to it would fail to load. I managed to get it to after a while (not sure what I did). Then I tried an .apk file and it wouldn't install, giving an error. I also used Rom toolbox to specify Apps2SD destination to the external but trying to install anything will give "not enough space" error.

So I am stumped.

As I am rooted but NOT unlocked I can't install a rom which might be the solution but I'd like to know if what I'm trying to do is possible without that.

I find it odd that the TF700 can't deal with an ext4 partition since it can happily deal with them on the internal. I'm confused so any clear explanation of the situation would be welcome.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
The internal "sdcard" is not an ext4 partition, it's a FUSE filesystem that emulates some properties of FAT (no case sensitivity, no permissions) on top of ext4. It also does not support symlinks.

Many users of the Data2SD mod had problems with Minitool - use gparted to create ext4 partitions.

Are you on the latest 10.4.4.25 firmware? Because that fixed something with microSD cards, and it's the only kernel so far that reliably works with my Sandisk "Mobile Ultra" microSD card, even with ext4.
[Asus Transformer TF700] louiscar:
Ok although I don't understand the Fuse fs (still trying to get to grips with basic unix stuff), I did think that symlinks were used internally.

Ok I'll give that a go.

Yes, I've just done the OTA to .25 a few days ago.

So basically what you are saying is that there's no reason why an external MicroSD formatted as Ext4 shouldn't work with the TF700?

Many thanks for the quick reply. I'm going to get gparted and give this a go.
