You could always root using Odin. So your phone will run a root66.Tar

type of file.

How ever this will put you on 4. 1. 1 stock rooted.

So if you really just love and have to have ICS. Then find a root66 file that's ICS.

But this method will do you wonders.

One day I am sure you will go back to flashing ROMs. I just know it.

I highly highly recommend using clean ROM. flawless. Fast. Stably. Stock looks. Perfect for you ;)

[Hardware Hacking General] eUncle:
Hi,

my droid 2 was on cm7, so I decided to upgrade to cm9.

I've started Droid 2 Bootstrapper, selected "Bootstrap Recovery" and allowed superuser access.

Then I've selected "Reboot Recovery" -> blackscreen -> reboot? (the Google-Logo appeared).

AFAIK the blue should blink after about 30 seconds, but it don't.

The google logo appears for more than 30 minutes...

What's up? Is my ROM broken? I cannot do anything...

I've also removed the battery pack and the SD card, put the battery pack back into the phone -> non-stop google logo.

Could you please help me? Thank you so much.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rotexor:
My phone is a Xperia Arc (also known as lt15i) and it is rooted and has an unlocked bootloader.

It runs on Android 2.3.4.

I wanted to install CWM, and followed a guide for that.

Since I can't link the guide, I can just say that it's name was "How to root sony ericsson xperia arc lt15i and install custom rom" and tht is was on listenmefirst.

From that guide, all i did was option 2 for installing CWM.

At the end of the guide, it says "reboot your phone", and I did, and now it's stuck in a boot loop.

I've tried several different keycombinations without anything happening (holding down volume / holding left and right buttons / holding home+volume up). It does however blink a blue light when I hold left and right button, but it seems to have no effect.

So my question is: is there any way to get out of this bootloop?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yo-meister:
if you have an unlocked bootloader you can simply flash a kernel that has CWM though fastboot or flashtool

Since your on 2.3.4, this may sound obvious, use a gingerbread kernel.

I used this for pretty much all GB roms i used

If you just wanted to get out of the bootloop (like your title lol) then you need to flash GB kernel.

If you want to go to ICS you need to put an ICS ROM onto your SD card, flash kernel, then install rom

Similar prob with no definitive answer...

I have the KF2 10.2.6

I used 1 click TWRP, flashed CM10, but flashed the wrong Gapps, wiped it all to do it again... too late I realized I had removed the CM10 ROM from the device.

I managed to figure out ADB crap (been rooting for years.. but never ADB) So I can "adb sideload" the rom back on...

I Have the latest Kindle USB drives installed through SDK, I have the ADB CMD prompt working... but It WILL NOT list the Kinde in when I 'adb devices' It simply just doesn't list a device.

My device manager displays that they are not installed correctly. I have tried every method I can think of of un/re imstalling them. no avail.

The whole point of reading through this thread is you do not need a fastboot cable to get to fastboot, you use the terminal emulator to get to fastboot. Fastboot is a mode on the device, you do NOT need a cable, but it is highly recommended that you have one.

Did you read the post above yours, where Alin1997 advises you of a method that uses TWRP to get into fast boot mode on the Kindle?

Or do you mean you don't have the fastboot command on your PC?
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] KlaxMaster:
As far as I know I have the fastboot command on my PC, I have downloaded all drivers and successfully done everything up to this point. Unless the specific command comes from some where not metioned in the 1click twrp post (fastboot is hardly mentioned at all, hence my confusion)

And my problem lies in the actual transfer of a file once I reach fastboot, still need to connect to get the file from my PC HDD to the KF SD WHILE in fastboot.

It is my understanding that a stock USB cable wont suffice. Or is my comprehension of what a fastboot cable is for, faulted?

Could anyone tell me what the [Hardware] difference between the Fastboot and normal usb is?

i.e. normal USB has 2 data, 1 live and 1 ground for connections.

Seeing as a USB port only HAS 4 pins, I don't see what the physical difference could be

The usb micro b cable has 5 pins on the micro b side. the 4th is tied into the 5th for otg, and tied into the 1st for fastboot.

once you are in fastboot, you need to flash the files to the device. Flashing is done via the fastboot flash command. You can read up on fastboot yourself, as I did not write the binary or the tut for using it.

But leaving your flash on for hours cannot be good for it.

I'm fairly sure it didn't before but I might be wrong. I noticed my phone warming up while using it in work during the week (when the electric was off) which it definitely didn't do before.

Can't see any reason why it would be bad. Plenty of LED torches out there, it'll just use up the battery a bit.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jujuburi:
No it's not bad. Even if the flash goes out for excessive usage it's pretty cheap to replace. But the device shouldn't go to deep sleep, it's not only a torch, it's an app running, that's why it could never go to deep sleep, normal.

'Swyped' from my GT-N7100

Fair enough. I may have been getting mixed up with the FM radio. That deep sleeps unless radio information is turned on. And I was using the torch at the same time so may have got mixed up possibly.
