[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEMODREAMS:
Need to Update...not sure how!

Ok so I did that and it says I'm s-on. Now what? Do I take the OTA update that says "This will update your ROM (MeanBean) to version MeanBean_3.06"? If so, once it's downloaded what do I do? Restart into bootloader? Also my Titanium backup is saying that it "could not acquire root privileges" What does that mean? Thanks for your help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shad Stang:
If you want to update meanbean then backup and flash the latest meanbean. If yours breaks like mine did, flash an ruu and dont be an idiot like me. im guessing it s a rare occurrence that mine broke the recovery

If your goal is to flash new radios then you have two options:

Two methods:

Get your adventure face on and follow the DirtyRacun S-Off process step by step (It worked for me on windows 7 x64 but its easy to use a ubuntu livecd)

Once you are s-off you can flash radios. DO NOT JUMP VERSIONS... EVER use the baseband version as reference in about phone and flash each version up until you are at the latest

OR

staying s-on and leaving yourself less prone to brick hell

recovery nandroid backup: system, data, boot

flash ruu

ota update

reroot

restore backup.

i dont know how to root from the latest version so idk if this is a good procedure. make sure you can root with the latest version

But really if you have a choice, ditch the evo and get the s3. you can firmware jump all you want, but the downside is that the s3 has sh*t roms. I miss venom and stock with goodies :crying:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
You should read Captain _Throwback's firmware thread :D

You can root the latest OTA just click the link in my sig :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] j_eezyy:
I was originally runny canogenmod 10.1 and decided to flash jellybam 5.2.0 with TWRP I flashed dalvik and reset factory settings but when I jellybam started booting up for the first time the screen keeps flashing white every second with the jellybam loading screen. Now I tried to go back to TWRP but the battery low icon comes up rather than the TWRP screen but when i try to turn the phone on normally it just goes to the jellybam loading screen. Whenever I plug my phone into my computer the light goes green but when I plug it into my charger nothing. Is this some sort of brick or are there any suggestions? I'd greatly appreciate any help, I'm kinda new to all of this.

[Update]

I've gotten to TWRP but don't know if I should retry to install Jellybam or ReInstall Cyanogen, unfortunately I don't have a backup saved -___-
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Vanakatherock:
In TWRP, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik, then re-install CM10.1. If that does not fix your issue, then download a stock ODIN file and start over. You would have to flash it using ODIN on your computer.

Don't bother with a flash count reset rom if you're having issues, just flash the LJ7 JB rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
Don't forget to flash the latest gapps after the ROM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
All nexus, sony and HTC phones have "linked" notification and call volume. The problem is that there is no option to unlink them. It absolutely astounds me that this matter does not get more attention.

The most surprising thing is that there really doesnt seem to be "an app for it". I tried several apps on a rooted nexus S and yet didnt find something satisfactory. Only apps that actually worked forced me to use profiles and placed ugly notification icons. That was simply not a solution as far as I am concerned.

I finally moved on to CM just for this issue but its just ridiculous that you have to install custom rom for such a petty issue.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23117

This matter has been raised by users for so long and yet google does nothing. It seems like samsung is the only one sensible enough to not have followed google on this.

What I want to know is that why is this thing causing problems for developers? Why cant we have a simple app atleast for rooted users that quickly fixes this issue? Or maybe a simple "hack" for rooted devices?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveid:
I would prefer an option. Though I want them linked, personally, and dislike that they are not on my Note II. It makes using the volume buttons to change the ring volume reasonable, otherwise the ringer goes up or down and the notifications stay where it was not wanted. I strongly feel most people will agree with this standpoint, and that you are unfortunately in a minority here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gambler_3:
Yes I agree samsung should also give an option to link them. But atleast on the note 2 you can simply use a notification volume widget on the homescreen like how I am doing now.

However there certainly are alot of people who want this feature as is evident by that thread. Ofcourse they might be in the minority but still there are people who want it. What do you do at night? I silent my notifications but call volume stay as is so people can still contact me for important stuff. Who wants to wake up from some useless text msg or facebook notification? But if someone is calling me at night then its usually something important. The importance of notifications on the other hand are not dependent on the time.
[Nokia Lumia 800] chris6273:
Hi guys,

Last night I managed to get my lumia 800 developer unlocked through Microsoft's website and Dreamspark as I am a student however after spending an hour or so downloading the SDK and installing it I found that I need root for most homebrew applications.

I've looked through a lot of threads and found that I have the Nokia DLOAD bootloader, however most of the threads are old.

My questions are; How do I go about getting root access to my phone?

and 2: What are my options?

Thanks for your replies!
[Nokia Lumia 800] ibjaredu:
I do not think there is anything that can be done at this point, unless you have the qualcomm bootloader. I am in the same situation.
[Nokia Lumia 800] NeuroXT:
Nope, you have to first gain interop-unlock. What kind of homebrew apps do you need anyway? The basic ones like screencapture and marketplace changer are enough for dev-unlock, just check with the developer or read the info.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ibjaredu:
How did you manage to get marketplace config to work without root access?
[Nokia Lumia 800] chris6273:
I was hoping to get ringtone2sms (Found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1634842) working. Haven't had a chance to check out many more homebrew apps so far.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aspataro:
My brother has had a Nexus 4 for about a month, no problems. Just the past couple days the phone will just power off.

Today is much worse, you power on and it goes through the boot process and just about ready to load the screen the message "powering off" comes on and the phone shuts off.

Thoughts?!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
You might want to contact Google for an RMA.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skezza:
If it gives the powering off dialog box it sounds as though the battery or more importantly the battery chip is totally ****ed. See, 'smart batteries' aren't just simple things nowadays. They have a tiny onboard chip that monitors the health, capacity, and other variables to report back to the phone. However, if that chip is ****ed, the whole thing can go tits up. I have an old mobile battery that when fully charged will power up the device but as soon as the chip is read by software it powers it down due to it reading a capacity of -99.

Does the ion just have one mono speaker? I have to admit the sound quality on the speaker is absolute trash on of the things I loved about my xperia play was the sound quality of the speakers it was actually mind blowing for a phone. Is there another speaker I could install in the ion or just anyway to make it not sound like crap.

The ion sound is like that actually...you can't turn the volume too loud or the sound will get distorted...I nust admit but my old mini pro got a better sound...

Hi all, after the ICS update yesterday, when someone calls or I call out, the other person can't hear my voice. I can plug in ear buds, with built-in mic and the other person can hear my voice ok. Wondering if there's a conflict somehow with the speakerphone? Been over the sound settings several times and can't find anything that applies. Any ideas or fixes? Thanks much

Interesting. I've not run in to that yet. I am unable to use MHS with hidden ssid, I hate that quick look up is gone, and facebook was added. Just a few minor things but overall I like it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I like what I'm seeing so far with ICS. This problem is very similar to one I had on an HTC Fuze several years ago, but it's been too long ago to recall the solution.

Are you able to hear calls on speaker?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
Are you unrooted?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Its a stock Tbolt. I did try flipping the phone and the speaker didn't come on. There was a sound setting that was checked (flip phone for speaker).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
If your microphone stopped working immediately after the OTA, I'd call Verizon and have someone look at it and replace it.

If your microphone worked for a little while after the OTA, chances are your microphone just decided to give out.

Either way, I'd look to get it replaced. If its stock and unrooted, there's absolutely no reason for the microphone giving out to be your fault unless it has possible water damage.

Try checking the headphone jack with a bright light for something stuck down in the headphone jack.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
RBarnett, thanks for the reply. The phone was working properly (my voice out) worked fine before the OTA update. No water damage. Just too much of a coincidence for the phone microphone to stop working immediately after the OTA, to my way of thinking. Sounds like good advice to have Verizon check it out.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowaczark:
No mic on Thunderbolt after ICS and app installs

Exact same issue here.

I updated my stock, undamaged, 2 year old, Verizon HTC Thunderbolt to Ice Cream Sandwich(ICS) last Tuesday evening. That evening I found out my phone mic was not working. Callers could not hear me, but all else was fine. Speaker phone did work. Love the Bolt and ICS looks and feels great.

I went to the local Verizon store and the guy did some online research and found no known or reported issues. He said that it must be coincidental that the mic stopped working after the ICS update. He cleaned the mic area and the headphone jack, assuming crud may have been disabling the mic. Nothing seemed to fix the problem.

They ordered a replacement under warranty and it arrived the next day. I activated it and proceeded to reload all my apps, again assuming that the mic issue must be coincidental. After many hours tweaking the phone to my needs and setting up all apps I found that the mic did not work.

Thursday I took both to the Verizon store and another rep played with it and could not find the cause. Only options were to upgrade, or try another replacement. I had no reason to replace my previously fully functioning Bolt. They ordered a second refurb that arrived yesterday. Before downloading any apps I was only going to activate it and make sure the mic worked. I never got that far. The second refurb had a malfunctioning screen that was unacceptable to me.

So off to the store I went with three Bolts.

They agreed the 2nd one should never have been sent out with the poor screen.

This time I talked with a female rep. She actually just upgraded from a Thunderbolt and was well versed. We decided to wipe the first refurb back to factory and the mic now was working. I took it home, started downloading my apps and after a few hours and nearly done I found the phone mic to be inoperable again. The speaker mic worked fine.

Assuming an app was disabling my phone mic I wiped it back to factory and reactivated. I checked and the mic is now working again. I assume one of my apps is conflicting with the mic mute. I have been downloading a few apps at a time and the mic is still working. Only about 15% of the previously downloaded apps are now on my Bolt. I just don’t know what app, or when my mic may go mute.

Long, ongoing story, but I thought I would post to see if anyone has any ideas, or similar issues after ICS update. Thanks in advance.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Keep sending them back and complain enough and you might get a newer replacement.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowaczark:
By "new replacement" you mean a new Thunderbolt, or replacement by a different phone? Probably be a frickin Apple knowing my bad luck...lol

I was actually surprised they updated the Bolt considering you can't even get accessories at a Verizon store any longer. And supplies are limited online.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
I mean a different phone.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowaczark:
Not an option for me. I will decide what brand/model phone I will use, not Verizon.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Even if it were a rezound? You would turn down a better phone?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Hey, a big THANKS, for that detailed reply! I guess misery loves company! Yep, that is the problem. The only work around I've found is to use head phones or ear buds. But you can't just plug in buds or phones and expect them to work for phone calls. They have to have a built in mic. Mine is a Dynex Adapter. It has the mic and a button switch for switching to a call if you're listening to music or radio. The adapter is about 5" long and costs about $10 as I recall. At least that makes the phone usable again until a better solution comes along.

Like you, I thought I might have a rogue app and started removing any app with an audio or sound component. So far no luck. Please let me know if you come across a solution and I'll do the same. Thanks again for posting.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowaczark:
I have read elsewhere about a similar issue. In that post it mentioned that once you get the rogue mic mute the only fix is a factory wipe. I have had to wipe phones 5 times since ICS update last Tuesday. I tried uninstalling app by app but never got the mic back without a wipe. I need a phone, more than I need all the apps. I do miss some but am adding them back slowly.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReRush:
Same here. They are sending me a replacement and we'll see what happens. I'm personally hoping this 2nd one has the same issue and just seeing if I can upgrade mine to another phone. >.>
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Being a total dumb ass concerning programming phones, this problem appears to be software rather than hardware related. Could a developer create a small app to simply reset or clear the mic status? I'm probably oversimplifying, but it looks like an HTC or Verizon developer could fix this problem in a matter of minutes. Rendering a fine phone useless after an OS update seems kind of ridiculous, imo. Any suggestions or thoughts?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
So far none of the rooted users that didnt take the ota but rather used the flash able haven't reported this issue. It is possible that its a combination of hardware and software where the new software didn't fill the gap for your hardware. It is well known that no two thunderbolts are alike and they all react differently to the software.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Good point Disconnectie. Something, whether hardware or software, rendered my perfectly working Tbolt, basically unusable after the OTA. I wonder now if the Emergency Call function is working? Don't think I'll make an emergency call to test.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Anyone seeing this problem?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowaczark:
According to Verizon, " the rezound(Thunderbolt 2)" is not available as an upgrade.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
It has been known that they will offer you the next phone up to the one that keeps having issues. There are several thunderbolt users that have actually been given the rezound instead of the thunderbolt because of reoccurring issues.

Anyone seeing any solutions to this? Thanks
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] networkman1:
We started experiencing the same issue directly after the latest push to ICS. Callers can't hear my voice. I have to turn on the speaker before I can have a discussion. Just took the phone to Verizon and you guessed it, they don't want to fix this issue, they want to you to change to a new phone/contract or get a refurbished phone. This is a software issue, not a hardware issue. Looking for a fix as nothing we have done has worked.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rav3ncroft:
The fix has been posted in several threads. Settings/Call/Disable Hearing Aids option.

Seriously? When this is enabled or checked I have a picture on my status bar.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Lemew, I wondered about that myself. I unchecked the hearing aid option but haven't tested yet to see if that frees the microphone. Have you tried it? Guess I can give up the audio boost if it makes the phone mic work again.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rav3ncroft:
You're welcome... BTW, please post back and confirm this resolves the issue.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamere:
Disabling the hearing aid option WORKED for me. Probably don't have the additional audio boost now, but I'm a happy camper again. Thanks everyone for your input!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lemew:
I didn't have any problems with it but I've also seen this posted on Verizon community with the hearing aid option working for some and not for others as well.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtnbkr4:
Audio boost is needed!

Disabling the hearing aid option also worked for me. BUT: I'm hard of hearing and NEED the additional audio boost.

[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
Hi,

I have a rooted NST, everything was fine. For the last few weeks I did not use it, as I was moving.

A few days ago, I have reactivated it. After charging it for a while, it worked flawlessly again. With one exception: In the upper right corner instead of the battery indicator it showed a battery with a question mark in it. I look at the battery status in Nook Color Tools, it said "unknown battery error" (or similar).

Today I wanted to use it again, but it does not do anything anymore. It still shows the screensaver image, but won't boot despite being fully charged (at least it was hanging on the wire for a few days, so it should be charged). Long pressing the power button does nothing, the "n" button does not do anything either.

If I attach it to my PC it shows very strange behavior: It won't mount any drives, but if I go to device manager, it will show an device called "OMAP 3630". The device is marked with a yellow exclamation mark in device manager.

After about 1 second, the device disappears from device manager, accompanied by the windows sound for "device disconnected". After another 1 second, it reappers, together with the "device connected" sound, then it disappears again, reappears etc. This goes on indefinitely.

Do you have any tips on how to revive the device? I don't even know where to start, as I don't even seem to be able to initiate a reboot. I would not mind losing any data, nothing irreplaceable on the device.

Thanks a lot in advance!

also maybe ur charger damage ur nook battery .... try steps above

[Nook Touch General] Renate:
When it says OMAP3630 that's the ROM bootloader in the TI processor trying to boot over USB.

If it's bouncing up and down that quickly, it's clearly hitting an error at an early stage.

Do you have any bootable SD cards like noogie or ClockworkMod?

Try them, see if it boots up.
[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
Yes I still have a bootable image (the one I used to root, I think it was clockwork), but I do not know how to even initiate a reboot. As I said long pressing the power button does not help.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Did you try just putting the SD card in?

If it's cycling in the boot loader it may not need to be reset.
[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
Yes I tried that, it makes no difference.

Also if I put the card in and then plug the device into my computer it makes no difference.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, get out the T-5 Torx driver, open it up and disconnect the battery.

[Nook Touch General] rhhd:
