go to recovery restore your prev. ROM and check the panel

Step 1. Find out which screen panel your device has:

1) Download and install Android Terminal Emulator from Google Play Market

2) Open the application and type in these commands:

(WARNING: to use these commands - you must be rooted with either Superuser or SuperSU AND have BusyBox installed on your phone)

su

dmesg|grep -i panel

If the app shows you any text with word "sony" in it - then your device has a screen panel made by Sony (obviously). If that's the case - you can just close this thread at once and don't worry that your device might freeze at "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen after flashing a ROM. Otherwise, proceed forward.

OR

1) Open up a file manager that has an ability of browsing any partition above the default SD-card directory and can access the system partition

You can use either ES File Manager or Root Explorer

2) Navigate to /sys/android_display

If there is a file called "sony ****** wvga" - then you have a Sony panel. Otherwise - you device has a panel by Hitachi.

Step 2. Download a MDDI kernel developed by Andromadus:

For Android 4.0.x & 4.1.x, use this link --> http://goo.im/devs/Super/andromadus/...kernel_82n.zip

For Android 4.2.x, use this link --> http://andromadus.flinny.org/sites/a...212.zip&nid=16

Step 3. Flash the MDDI kernel:

If you are S-OFF --> just flash the .zip file with the kernel after flashing the ROM and GAPPS package through "install zip from sdcard"

If you are S-ON --> use the following instruction:

Re: [Q] How to start Flashing Andromadus ROM (Build 13) Android 4.2 on HTC Desire S?

Stop opening fresh threads, people tend to ignore you More if you constantly open threads. I had a couple of panicky moments when i first did mine. Just take a deep breath and start again

The MD5 was not same ! The MDDI kernel I flashed it did not had the same MD5 as I the one I redownloaded..

And now..I cannot reboot into recovery by using adb.. :'(

I tried "adb reboot recovery" command

And it gave me an error saying: error: device not found

How can I reset the adb?

PS: sorry MODs but I wanted to present my problem clearly so had to open a thread with a clear description.

Ok you've been at this long enough for now. Pull battery and count to ten before putting it back in. Manually boot into recovery (vol down+power)

Its not advisable but you are getting too flustered and you going to make more mistakes. Follow acultr directions carefully, don't try to do it any other way. Just stay calm your phone will be fine, its not dead

I am right now in HTC's own bootloader menu..so I had peek into "system info" option and got to know that my LCD is from Hitachi only (*sigh*)

its listed there as "LCD-HI" HI being Hitachi?

though the touch panel is from Atmel.

Also, my current question is how should I proceed now..? as I am in the bootloader's menu so..should I click on "Recovery" option in there..so as to go to 4ext recovery?:confused:

+ I will perform all the steps again I had listed in #1 post of this thread..like formatting/clearing caches etc. and then finally flash the correct MDDI kernel (this time MD5 checked :D)

No Hotspot Tether Apps Will Work On My Phone Please Help!!

I have a Galaxy S3 with AT&T. I do have the recent LTE sim card. I’m trying to share

Internet to my two macs. My S3 is rooted.

I recently installed Google Wallet. Sense I have AT&T I had to change a couple of logs in the build directory to trick my phone to think it’s a Galaxy Nexus. Could that be it? If so can I change the logs back and Google wallet still work?

I’ve had been using FoxFi for about 2 months with no problems. I never used it a whole lot to make my data stand out. I’ve used it about 8 times

No matter which hotspot tethering app I try to use my phone wont share internet. USB tether apps wont work either.

I’ve tried:

Wireless Tether – Says its sharing a hotspot but computer wont find it.

Smart Tether – Says FoxFi is working but FoxFi says the hotspot is off

ClockworkRom Tether – Says USB tethering is ready then the app on my mac tries to connect to the internet through the phone but never does, just keeps saying “Checking phone status..”

Barnacle WiFi Tether – Says “Failed to connect to supplicant: no such file or directory” “Stopped unecpectedly!”

FoxFi – When I go to activate it tries to then says “Activation faild.” – Ive been using FoxFi for about 2 months with no problems.

EasyTether – Says its ready to USB tether but mac just says my phone is not sharing Internet

PdaNet USB tether – I have the PDA net app installed on my mac like required but still does not work.. – Pda Net did work on my mac on my iPhone before switching over to android. 2 months ago.

I've been having Wifi issues with my phone since I got it a few weeks ago. I've done everything up to wiping it. The network is set to stay connected while the phone sleeps as well. The problem is when I'm on wifi a lot of the times when I try to access the browser or use Google play or just something that requires Internet I keep getting network errors. I can cut wifi off and everything runs perfect. Wifi is also pretty slow on any network. Can't figure it out.

Every major version number or so (with the exception of 3.x and 4.x) Google seems to do a major overhaul in the color scheme of android. So, for Android 5.0, what do you think the color scheme will be, or what do you think it should be? My opinion is that the next color will be more bold, I would be inclined to say orange complimented with pastel colors of some sort. Why, you ask?

Note: I am speaking in terms of stock vanilla android, OEM skins are irrelevant

Looking at the trend of our favorite search giant:

Android 1.6:

View attachment 1725598

White and grey, sure its cool in theory, but a 4x4 grid of icons was cooler IMO (basically iPhone still had the upper hand)

Android 2.0

View attachment 1725617

Same thing, just changed the color of the app drawer icon *yawn*

Android 2.1

View attachment 1725621

It is here that we see Android become a preteen, it seems more polished with a button based app drawer and a nice little overhaul with performance

Android 2.2

View attachment 1725627

Bravo! It is now more user friendly with the addition of the icons on the sides, and the transparent dock bar makes it a wonderful addon to the experience when coupled with the new found live wallpaper support

Android 2.3

View attachment 1725631

This is where we realized Android was a force, Andy had a kick ass night at make out peak and came back a man. Notice the semi minimalistic style transformation implemented in Gingerbread. Icons are bolder, they follow a guideline to create a synchronized interface. The black, grey and green color scheme make it the talk of the town in a club or a board meeting. Its professional.

Android 3.0

View attachment 1725637

It would take a dissertation to describe the nerdgasm I had when I saw Honeycomb. I watched the press release 3 times even though it was over an hour long. Blue was a change no one expected. A true minimalistic interface, ON SCREEN BUTTONS, scrollable widgets, an overhaul that made Ebenezer Scrooge jump for joy. Android had officially become a man. The Blue and Black was a great addition. We considered 3.0 to be the "tron" interface.

Android 4.0-4.2

View attachment 1725647

The awesomeness was downsized and upgraded to fit tablets and phones alike, all the goodness of Honeycomb on a screen the fraction of the size of an HC tablet. The shade of blue was lightened, and they downsized on how much jet black was in the interface. Now if you look at 4.2, they hint at another shift. The clock app, for example, is grey and white, while I don't see this as the final change, I think the anticipated Android 4.5 "Key Lime Pie" update will lighten up, and by 5.0 the entire color scheme will change. So, what do you think.?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] demension21:
Last week, I did the most stupid thing on my note 2 (SGH-t889). I saw a rom that i liked for the n7100 and flashed on my 889v. Of course, rom works fine but no DATA OR VOICE :crying:crying:

So I flashed my phone with my previous rom and I had data again. All of a sudden, after installing all my apps, I lost the connection. My phone went completely crazy

i saw unknown baseband on settings / phone status; phone rebooted itself. I tried to flash a stock rom, or even flash the 889v modem on any rom and no luck; i was on a constant boot loop

I had to flash another modem from T-Mobile to get out of boot looping (MODEM: T889UVALL4_Modem-Jan_16_13-teshxx) but i couldn't get on any network even if I my phone could detect them (I'm on Videotron).

I've searched xda and other sitEs for solution on how to fix an almost empty esf folder. On a tmo modem my emei was 0 0 and on videotron modem it was null.

SOLUTION

My efs folder was almost empty; no nv_data.bin and those other files.

I went across this site

http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-tutorials/how-to-enable-t-mobile-3g4g-aws-bands-on-att-galaxy-note-2-sgh-i317/

It's a tutorial on how to enable aws on the AT&T note 2. It had just what i needed: a qcn file. Ive follwed the directions on the site; flashed the qcn file with the QPST software and rebooted the phone. My emei was a bunch of 0. No signal still but the battle wasn't loss.

On this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1804117

I've used the EMEI NVitem generator to create en encrypted file of my EMEI

Put it on the the NV reader / writer, reboted the phone

And VOILA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i got my signal back but with a tmo modem (MODEM: T889UVALL4_Modem-Jan_16_13-teshxx)

my 4g is back and my gps is working flawwless

Now, just to let you know, I'm not a developer and i take no credit for this. Even if this thread get approved or deleted, I just wanted to help other members like me who are stuck on the same situation (especially 889v owners). At the end.... MY PHONE IS BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another way to change your IMEI is through qpst since you already have it downloaded.
