[Verizon Droid Charge] toadgunner:
Please help, this pit may have hard bricked my phone

I also am having issues with my droid charge being (was) soft bricked. Now it might be hard bricked. I installed the pit and is was successful, at least odin told me it was. However now my phone will not do anything. I cannot get the screen to so much as flash a glimmer of light. Hold up and plug into computer....nothing. Just try to power on...nothing. Try to go into cwm, nothing.

I am not sure what I did to start all my problems as I have flahsed ROMs with ODIN multiple times with no issue. Yesterday though it just did not take for some reason and not only that nothing would take. After failing to flash multiple ROMs that I have used many times before, I tried the "Packaged Rom that includes custom Kernel,ROM,CWM" mentioned here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160580 This worked, sort of.

This would get me into CWM but would be stuck on a boot loop back to CWM no matter what i tried. Custom .zip roms, stock .zip roms, etc.

SO thats when I tried the pit mentioned in this thread......now the phone is 100% unresponsive.

Can anyone please tell me if this can be recovered? And also can anyone tell me what I may have done wrong?

Google location services reports that I am in Cisco Texas when I am really in California. It only happens when I am home and have wifi on. I've had the same problem with multiple ROMs from CM 9 to PACman (4.1). If I turn off wifi my location is reported correctly. I've changed my wifi ssid and deleted maps data but that didn't help.

I searched the web and found that others have had the same problem, often erroneously showing them to be in Cisco Texas when they are in diverse locations from Denmark to Oregon. Google's mobile help forum had a thread on the problem but it was closed without a solution due to inactivity.

It is hard to plan my day when I am getting weather data for a location 1500 miles away.

I've posted the problem to google's help forums, but I have more faith in you folks than in the people over there. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: My Touchpad running CM 9 or a CM 10 derivative at the same location does not have the same problem.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
TBH, the only thing you can really do is give it time. Google location works by extrapolating your position from the WiFi you can see cross referenced to a face l database at Google. It doesn't know where you WiFi really is, so is putting it there. Eventually, it will figure out where it really is and update it, but that relies on running other location sources that or can check against. Run GPS a lot, especially when you coming and going and it'll figure it out.

When I moved from Montgomery to Atlanta, it took a few months for Google to update my WiFi location, but it eventually happened.
[HTC Rezound] foggytown:
Thanks for the quick reply, Shrike.

Guess I'll wait for Google to remap my neighborhood.

Skyhook?

Try this...

http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/submit_ap.php
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Android doesn't use Skyhook. It uses Google's location service. Skyhook maps things by driving around in vans that scan for AP's. Google relies on user devices to build their Wifi maps.
[HTC Rezound] bwthor20:
I registered the MAC of my Wi-Fi router with Skyhook back when I got my first iPad 2 Wi-Fi so it could be located. Now if I have both my GPS and mobile data off on my phone, my location is provided by Wi-Fi, exactly at my house. I know Skyhook worked for my iPad 2.

Also, I think that Google does the same thing by using your GPS and logging AP's locations you are on.

Either way, it wouldn't hurt to try if the location isn't working for you. Could be that somehow your GPS was wonky and reported your AP location incorrectly and it just hasn't been updated in Google's system.

So, been running the nightlies and have noticed something since the latest M1.

I haven't narrowed down exactly WHEN it occurs, but it does occur often, I believe it's mostly when the screen is off though....

I'll receive a notification (gmail mainly, sometimes an sms) and my system goes nuts in that the haptic feedback is full force and gives double responses usually, followed by extreme lag to the point where I can't even answer calls if someone calls me. I am forced to restart, is this a current known issue? is anyone else having this problem?

I've been working on rooting my phone 4 a couple of days, thought I had accomplished all I needed and then realized that I was still s-off. my ultimate goal is to downgrade to froyo and then upgrade with unrEVOked to Jellybean. The biggest problem I have is that my windows pc is flipping out on me and all I have is a mac. I also have a newborn and can't even begin to try and figure out vmware or dualbooting or anything. My wife's already having a hard time with me trying 2 finish rooting my droid. I've spent hours reading everything I can (still very much a noob, don't understand terminal, c prompt, or flashing) and have probably been just really lucky getting to where I'm at. Other posts I've read are wither windows only, s-on, or not 2.3.5. Help, I'm desperate!! I really don't want 2 have 2 pay the guy on FB either. Any help at all is greatly appreciated since I know how valuable time is 4 everyone.

Why do you want to lose S-Off? You should probably wait for some time until you can donate some time to this, distractions can be extremely annoying on OSes like Android.
[General Questions and Answers] Orestees:
Mostly because I've been having issues with a couple of apps not being able to work because of s-on. Maybe you're right though, I need to take some time with it. Got my Windows back up but it still doesn't help since my usb connection with my phone's not working. Tried multiple cables, renamed usb slot, downloaded most recent drivers, but nada.

If your USB slot(on the phone) is broken,you're pretty much screwed. Try posting in the evo 4g forums,they might help. And I don't understand what you mean by loading a cyanogenmod. Do you mean from the recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] Orestees:

I just want to make this public knowledge as a few of us here participate in small group buys. Or make offers to buy or trade accessories off people's hands that have posted reviews, but are less than satisfied with an accessory. Do not deal with ethan.r.besbris.

A few weeks back, there was a thread about swapping unused Nexus 4 cases (which seems to have disappeared now). I participated in it, and agreed with this ethan.r.besbris fellow to swap an XDA Developer's Cruzerlite case for his black Poetic Borderline bumper case. I sent my case out on 1/28 with a USPS tracking # 9400109699938380086314. It has already long since arrived, but repeated attempts by PM since the 29th to get a tracking # or confirmation of shipping from ethan.r.besbris have gone ignored, despite the PMs having been read. The last thing he said was that he'd ship his case out on the 29th, but I have yet to receive anything to date. I can only assume he deliberately ripped me off at this point.

If any moderators read this, please consider banning ethan.r.besbris. The guy still has the gall to log in daily and go around making posts while ignoring my PMs. XDA doesn't need his sort trolling on here. Thank you for reading.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Wow this sucks...

In case anyone wants to know, his Twitter is https://twitter.com/bigdaddybesbris - according to XDA profile.

Maybe we should give him a piece of our mind, that his kind is not tolerated here?

Also this is quite tragic, his twitter profile says "I am a son. I am a brother. I am a father."...I wonder what kind of example he sets his children :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] dokukinoko:
Agreed. I remember seeing that thread and glad it got removed. Unfortunately, this coupled with my bad luck past experience is the reason why I never do business with anyone on forums (or non regulated websites) anymore. Trading is even more riskier. There are websites like heatware to hold people's reputation accountable with a feedback system in place at least.

First, thank you for taking the time to visit this thread.

Feel free to answer anything or say anything related/unrelated.

Coming to the subject proper,the above mentioned folder named com.Android.providers.media present in /data/data has a file in databases called external.db. Which today all of a sudden had a mind of it's own and said I'll become bigger and so it grew and grew and made 38MB:mad::eek: (There is no more space in /data after that).

So, me:angel:, as the owner of my phone took control and deleted that file, however it seemed to reoccur again after a fixed period of time and certainly after every reboot.

Please do help:rolleyes: me to delete this malicious file.

Technical details::cool:

1.Had a history(around 4 days back)of a large thumbnail folder(2GB) in dcim/.thumbnails/.thumbnails~125465,which I deleted and made similar file there with the exact same name(so that it will not reappear )

Edit: This is also a main problem.

2.My media probably won't exceed 2GB at most.

3.I only have less than 50 photos lq

4. I could say that there's not a corrupted file in /sdcard

5. The database file external.db has a list of all files in my sdcard.

Shouldn't it only have a list of media files right ? But, instead it has every file in my /sdcard listed. Even so, I couldn't figure out how it got to 38MB

Any other tech details you want ?

Technical specifications::cool:

1.Recently installed cm10 bhargz version

2.kernel 3 switched to kernel 2.6 at present

3./sdcard total size:32GB

Available: 1GB

4. /data from 40 MB to near 0

5. Recovery cwm6 by sakindia123(even has the blobs files listed..totally ridiculous )

6. Manufacturer:HTC

7.Model: A310e

Attempted and Failed solutions:

1.Deleted the folder

2.deleted updated google play

Possible solutions

1. Re scan media root freeze.. really don't want to do that.

Even if you don't have a solution, please do post your external.db file size and please do confirm that this file only has list of mp3 or album files and not other general files.

Thanks for reading upto here.Even if you don't want to help, feel free to say "That's just too sad;)".:D Yup. That's it.

That's how you should tell what problem do you have, with details, nice!

Now more seriously, I have 3 files that are called external.db I'm ataching the screen shot, but none of them is that huge that's also in the screen, is it possible to be, because you are not using memory script(no logic I know but......) or not using the correct one, also did you flashed super striped gaaps, or some ordinary ones, you see I'm hanging on straws here, just have no clear idea of whats wrong, just trying to help as best as I can. I'm using AOKP rc3(It's cm 10 b2 based with kind a video playing fixed, have to use mx player, no youtube though), with super striped gaaps and mounts2sd from playstore.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
yay!:D:D..A reply.

Thanks man.. especially for the complement and for the screenshot too.

Now for the required tech:

1. No, I'm using script and I'm a app addict. I'm also using mount2SD from play store.But I don't think that's the issue, since I had in ics,with the exact configurations.

2.No again. I'm using the super stripped gapps. I did download the full gapps,but didn't have the mood to install all that junk after looking into it.

I also have the 3 files, but the first one external.db was the one which increased dramatically. My media scanner was on for about 47minutes as per better battery stats app(thanks to you)

One more request:

Can you please look into the external.db file and post what files are present in there ?

Basically what type of files ?

Is it only media files(.mp3,.jpg,.mp4,etc.. )or other normal files(no format files(with no dot),html,game files,tmp,etc. )

format of the database? (click details)

The log file in the database ? (should be in the log entry)

Required tools to do on phone:

1. asqlite manager by andsen(i think)

Procedure:

Copy that external.db to sdcard

And open asqlite manager to open the external.db

I want the files in the "files" entry and log entry

Click on data on top to show full details.

Click page up/down on the top right to move around database.

Menu > option > details to show type of database

Sorry to explain detail:p, if you already knew or using computer sqlites

And once again, please feel free:D:D to say anything you think of at any time.

Ya, no problem, just a tiny inconvinience, maybe 15 minutes after I post this, I changed the rom, it wanted to eat my battery for breakfast. So now I'm on "mini cm10", situation with those file sizes is the same, and another thing, wouldn't be easyer if I just upload a file somewhere and you check it out to see what is what, wouldn't be easyer? And yes explenation was needed so thanks for that, if you wont I will check it out but...... I'm kind a lot of a noob.

https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B5uKAxW9j6ezVkpTamxVQk1GQ1E/edit?usp=sharing

And by some no obvious reason, the file is with kind a diferent name, maybe because of the rom change.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
Yes, thanks a lot for the file..

I'll check fully and report later(probably tomorrow)

ps:I'm on a 1 ~ 2 KB /s network(most pics take a long time to show up)so,nstarted downloading original file

Off topic,

Is mini cm10 less battery consuming in your opinion ? What I don't get is it's more or less exactly the same as original cm roms. I did hear a lot of reviews about good battery backup in mini cmroms.. however I felt no difference on mini cm9..and I haven't tested mini cm10..so just asking your opinion.

I still don't have any data about this, have a busy day today, and the phone was used as a phone, so it looks good, but with that usage everything looks good, will tell in a day or two how it is with standard usage. About the cm 9s they was exactly the same for me. I'm also hoping to get good battery from this, that's the main reason why I flased it, so far I've discovered that it needs a lot of time to stop being laggy(two hours and now no lags in the launcher), so if you decide to try it you should be patient.
