unlimited

I've got a plan where my son and I both have unlimited, with a $20 discount each, so $10/mo unlimited.

Since there's no way I'm going to give that up (and I've had to be vigilant), I did the add a line with a new DNA, activate, replace with basic phone, activate device again on my line.

So now I've got a new "secret phone" with the VX-9900 and a sweet DNA with Viper on it...

Hi guys i need some help with my phone, as there's lots of problems. First of all, this phone was given to me by a friend and im not sure what he did to it, and neither is he.Also, i am VERY confident it is NOT bricked.

So the first problem is that when i turn the phone on, i see the G! screen then it goes black (except for the backlight) and it will just stay there forever. Next, it does boot up into fastboot mode (with the 3 android skaters) when i hold power+camera, but i cant get it to work properly with my computer. The last problem is, i cant get into recovery, it just shows the g1 screen and then goes black forever. Also, when i hold the trackball and the power, the blue LED DOES turn on, i read somewhere that that means its not bricked so..

What i am trying to do is install the latest radio, ClockWorkRecovery, and HTX MUI X by Hintay

Any help you could give would be great. Thanks guys!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
blue light mode doesnt inherently mean its not a brick it just means you can force new firmware and software with jtag, problem is not many do this and it requires special equipment.

Not sure what happened to it either but the good thing is you have bootloader access, so what i would do is get your computer to recognize your phone, cant attest to why it isnt, did you install the proper drivers? did you install adb.exe and fastboot.exe from the android sdk? did you add a path in environmental variables or at least open the command prompt in the same directory as fastboot.exe?

i assume you have windows but if youre running a linux distro its even simpler to get fastboot working, i cant attest to mac being im not an apple guy

other issues may be a faulty usb port or bad usb cable

really you just need to get fastboot working on pc and then almost for surely what you describe can be fixed that way
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andres1235:
Black screen

I'm not sure what driver to install as there are 3 to choose from nad yes installed the adb.exe and the fastboot.exe and i did add the enviroment variable. Also, yes I am on windows. Also, when i plug the phone into the computer in fastboot mode, the phone changes from "fastboot" to "fastboot USB" which is good, right? and i am confident the usb wire works since i use it with other devices to charge and transfer files.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
There's a good chance you don't have a brick but even with having bootloader access you still could. If you have a sim with data plan you can easily flash the dreaimg.nbh within bootloader. That an all upgrades including radio/recovery/SPL/ROM can be done without adb or fastboot. This may be more work then just finding out why it isn't working but its an option
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andres1235:
Forgot bout dat

I guess i forgot to mention this. When i try to flash the dream.nbh, one of two things happens. Either it doesn't detect the file at all, or it attempts to flash it but it will just sit there for hours never finishing. I'm hoping this doesn't mean its bricked. :(

Also, i dont have a data plan, i was waiting to add it until i got this phone working. Is it necessary to have a data plan to flash the dream.nbh?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Well it is leaning more likely that is a brick, if the SD card is good and is properly formatted that is. Also a good idea to check the md5sum of the .nbh you are flashing, needs to be named properly and on the root of sdcard (no folders)

If all the above is verified could easily be a brick but don't give up hope, double check everything, try again to get the proper drivers, and if all else fails sell it as parts
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreyrd:
First of all, that's an old bootloader that does not have fastboot.

Format your SD card and then try to flash the DREAIMG.nbh

If it still does not work, and does not show any errors, I am afraid it sounds like you have a bad NAND chip.

Because if the file was corrupt, it would show an error. If you needed a gold card, it would show an error.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
the 1.33.2005 spl does have fastboot flash capabilities as far as i know, so i would still keep trying that out (fix drivers etc) a fastboot erase system -w may cure some issues but if bootloader is corrupt then either jtag or try to flash a new one through fastboot.

but like nerdyguitarist said if its a fried nand then youre sol

Before this phone i was using Galaxy fit for almost 3 years.

Guys this is a very good phone and you should develop ROMs for this.

Hope developers read and work on this.

[Nokia Lumia 920] HTCalltheway:
Hi guys, I got another problem... when I shake the phone I can hear something loose inside. I could also feel whatever it is moving around so it's something with big momentum.. so i'm guessing it's the battery.... I know the NL 900 battery is held down with tape but I don't think the 920 one is...

does anyone else's phone have something loose inside? I might have to open my phone up and see cuz I can't stand a flagship device doing this.... :/

EDIT: fixed!!! video: here
[Nokia Lumia 920] ryan09266:
Its the OIS, the camera is suspended, so it moves when you shake it.

[Nokia Lumia 920] paddylaz:
Ignore ANYONE who says it's the optical equipment.

Yes, the image stabilization apparatus make a VERY quiet high-pitched, hollow noise. But it is a well-known defect on lumia 920's that some of them have a loose battery that moves around creating a clunky noise and also the feeling of weight distribution changing. If this is you then it's a genuine problem and you need to get it replaced. For more information, check out the lumia 920 forum on wpcentral - do a search and you'll see it's a common complaint especially on earlier batches.

Hope this helps x

You can't locate it in routine folder, as it saves in fota folder, and once it failed it may not be available longer there.

Even supposed it will be there (you need to reroot to find it) and find it, it surely won't work with Mobile odin, so don't waste your time.

This can happens when your device is priory rooted, even it can't be solve with unroot

You have to factory reset, even after factory reset it's not guaranteed.

Try this

-clear data from setting - application manager - all - software update (you will find two), after clearing data reboot and check for update

If still not work

-factory reset and check

If still not works

-flash any older rom you have already downloaded with pc odin, then it should work

CHoosing a ROM ...Benchmark style

This should satisfy your doubts ...

http://www.netlib.org/benchmark/linpackjava/

Higher the better ....but you need to do a set of operations in same environment (read as performance governor .)Run the benchmark at very least 50 times ..200-500 is preferred .Take an average of those iterations and choose the ROM with higher average ...

Long way of saying that benchmarks is not indicative of IRL performance ....Plus that benchmark is used to check floating point operations which is not much used IRL situations related to androids unless you use your phone for scientific computing ...

[Galaxy S III General] koolshubh:
This tip is one that seems counter-intuitive, but you can save a lot of wear and tear on your Android phone's battery if you tell it to keep the Wifi radio turned on and connected while the phone is sleeping. Your phone needs a lot of juice to keep pinging those cell towers, and even more to transmit data to and from them. Wifi radios use much less power because of their design, and they don't have to keep searching for a better access point. It's the way cellular data communication was designed, and it's a necessary evil.

But what if you're spending all day (or all evening) in one place, connected to Wifi? If you tell your phone to shut off Wifi when idle, it bounces back to cellular data (be it 2G, 3G, or 4G) and starts sucking down the electrons again when the screen shuts off. That's no good, and easy to fix:

Open the advanced Wifi settings by pressing the menu button, then Settings, Wireless & networks, Wi-Fi settings, and tapping the menu button again. You'll have a choice to either Scan, or go Advanced -- go Advanced.

Tap the Wi-Fi sleep policy entry, and you'll get a pop up dialog with the 3 choices. Choose Never.

Now even when your phone goes into standby mode, you'll stay connected to Wifi and be able to get mail and messages without turning the cell radio back on and trouncing your battery life. And for the times when you're not in an area with a Wifi connection, just shut Wifi off, either through the menu or with a handy toggle widget. Your battery will thank you for it.

#Its only for those beginners who dont know about this setting...

Re: [Guide] Save Battery By Keeping Wi-fi Alive

You need to choose "Always", not "Never". If you choose "never", then it disconnect wifi as soon as display is turned off.
[Galaxy S III General] eug:
If you're moving out of wifi range, or in and out of wifi range, turning wifi off will use less power as associating with an AP has a high energy cost. But as the original poster says, if you're going to be sitting in one place all day e.g. at home or at the office where your phone will always be connected to an AP, leaving wifi on and always connected will use less power than 3G.

More details here:

http://people.cs.umass.edu/~arun/papers/TailEnder.pdf

I suppose it's not that surprising. I'm sure many of us, after buying a new phone, have left the old one sitting around at home without a SIM card but connected to wifi, still polling emails and everything. The battery lasts ages!
