OK I have a Power A Xbox360 controller that I purchased from walmart and I am trying to connect it to my nexus 7 (which is rooted and running 4.2.1 CM10) but I can't seem to get it to work. The middle button flashes green as if the controller is connect, yet it will not work for any game or allow me to map any buttons to get it working. I have searched Google and found as long as you are at least running 3.0 and above it should be just a matter of plug and play. Can any one help me and let me know is there is anything I am doing wrong or is it maybe my controller model is just not applicable for this task.

P.S Yes I am using a OTG cable and attached below is a picture of my controller if that helps.

Thanks

We've found, tested, and confirmed a method of returning the bootloader to original LOCKED status (not relocked, and not a hacked hboot). It requires S-OFF, and isn't noob friendly yet. The information is available here for anyone who urgently needs it for warranty (see OP and page 3), but for everyone else please wait for a more user friendly method to be ready. The development thread for this will be updated when it is ready. Please see that for more info, credits, etc,

Also note: this was lead by scotty1223, I just helped and tested it. (read: make sure to press his thanks button in his thread too)

I used directory bind on my Gameloft files and again on my odd files. All has worked well and the moved programs work. When I go into the phone's internal memory, I still see the files in their original directories and properties shows the file sizes as their original file size. When I select the folder on the internal memory, long press for properties, and it says like 1.7GB. I go to the app manager shows the files as the original size also. However, when I go to settings, storage, it shows my internal memory reduced by 1.7GB. After moving the files, should there be a "ghost" image still on internal memory? I see the files on the SD card and under properties, measure the same 1.7GB.

What is going on? Is this the way it operates?

Its working well, I'm leaving it alone, but just want to know.

[HTC One X] thread314:
Hey,

My phone is faulty, and I need to return it under warranty. I had unlocked the bootloader and installed custom roms, so I just want to check that I've managed to undo all that, and that at the factory they won't be able to tell that I had it rooted.

The main-version is 3.14.980.27, which I couldn't find an RUU to work with, so I downloaded the Stock Nandroid Backup, flashed the boot.img it contained, restored the stock nandroid backup, flashed the stock recovery, relocked my bootloader and deleted eveything from the internal sd card. Having done all this am I ok to send it back for warranty?

The fault is nothing to do with rooting it, but just a little worried that if they find any evidence I rooted it, then they will refuse to fix it and I'll be out $600.

Thanks in advance for all advice.

You are as stock as you can be ..... they can always tell by the relocked bootloader that its been unlocked ..... so its sending it in and hope for the best.
[HTC One X] PVProteus:
This is somewhat related. I need to send my phone under warranty due to the dreadful green tint camera problem that arises when some people update to jelly bean, what are the chances of them repairing my phone even though I'm rooted and have a custom ROM? Surely they must know this is not a problem caused by rooting or flashing since it occurs on the stock ROMs as well, right?

Hi

I have been using Minooch + Franco kernel (Version 4.1.2) for months now and I have been happy about it and even donated as a small thanks from my side.

I downloaded their latest version 2 days back (Version 4.2.1) - Nightly kernel - Minco v.6 and I noticed a couple of things.

1. The volume was not as high as last version.

2. I have experienced twice today - I kept the phone idle for some time and I was not able to switch it back on - unless I take the battery off and switch it on after putting the battery in.

I flashed after fully formatting and wiping everything - so its a fresh install.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

I need a little consultation, advice..

How u think "6.1.A.2.55_SG Generic" work in Europe (Lithuania)? It can be used like international version of firmware?

And this update have Lithuanian language?

And did you ever had any problems with touch screen and battery drain? Touch screen is very sensitive and sometimes doing crazy "touches" (especially when I charging phone or using it on HDMI) ... Maybe this update will improve battery drain and maybe fix touch screen? :confused:

Hello

I have been running on ICS for some time now, since last time I tried to update to JellyBean I just couldn't find any keyboard that I was happy with. I really love the HTC ime keyboard, and this don't work on JellyBean. At least last time I checked, and also after a search now I couldn't find any update on this matter.

Does anyone now about a HTC keyboard that works on JellyBean? I don't like Samsung keyboard, and has tried Smart Keyboard Pro that is the closest to HTC ime mod but it doesn't do the trick for me.

What I love about the HTC ime keyboard is:

- Easy to switch from autocorrect to normal

- Easy to insert smileys

- T9 phone keyboard

Hope anyone has some answers, or maybe suggestions about keyboards that is similar. My phone is rooted, and I am wondering about updating to JellyBean.

Hello guys, I will try and keep this short and sweet.

I have tried connecting a headset to my tablet, sound plays through speakers still, not the earpiece.

Then I tried connecting a bluetooth headset, it says connect, yet it still is playing sound through speakers and not the earpiece.

Hey guys i'm looking for a rom that is unique and not just nova/trebucht/apex launcher. Something really unique and different. I'm currently trying out miui.
[Nexus 7 General] jadephyre:
MIUI on the Nexus 7... that is just an upscaled version of the same UI that you get on every phone that MIUI supports.

Other ROMs are also a no-go if you want something different, because all of them more or less use the same UI as AOSP.

You could try Paranoid Android, but somehow it was not really appealing, at least not to me.
[Nexus 7 General] jonah1234:
there is nothing that's themed differently or different at all? Getting bored of the same layout. Although I think ubuntu fir N7 mobile version is releasing tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] zedwards:
Honestly, as a ROM junkie, I've just stuck with stock since there isn't really much of a compelling reason to change. Maybe just try a different launcher? I admit, I've loved MIUI on a phone, but have no desire to use it on a tablet unless it gets tabletified.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 4driang:
So I'm using cyanogen 10 and also have clockwork on my phone. I had issues before where the phone would act crazy and I had to do a wipe and restore from a backup file. That's easy

What has seemed to happen is that every time those episodes happened, it would create a new image on the internal memory. I figured this was going on but realized it actually was when I went into the files to clear some stuff out when my phone said low memory. What I am wanting to do is to merge this stuff all together and get rid of what isn't needed.

For example I have a /0/ file which is the same as the /sdcard/ file. Which has the same stuff, just updated.

What do you recommend to use to handle this on a computer? I'd much rather handle it on a laptop then through the phone.

Thanks for the help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Just copy one of the multiple files to your computer... format the phone memory all together then copy and paste it back.... Or do you want to do something different?

Should update to latest recovery to stop that from happening (at least on TWRP), and stop using nightlys also, if they keep causing crazy episodes.

Hi all.

I've just installed some app that broke down my S3 stock OS.

The OS was rooted, and I gave the crappy app superuser access...

It was supposed to change the DPI setting, but now it's boot-looping over the Samsung logo. :(

Now I'd like to recover my data, photos and stuff...

CWM Recovery 5.5.0.4 is installed.

I can start a backup, but it won't complete since I don't have a large enough SD card at hand (it's a 32 GB SGS3 with a bunch of large videos...).

I don't care about the movies, just the photos, but there's no option for a selective backup...

I also tried updating CWM to a more recent release with Odin (downloaded .img and tar'ed it...), but it won't go further than SetupConnection.

I've not tried a factory reset of anything else yet...

Is there a way I can still recover my data, or should I just get over it and try to flash the whole thing back with Odin?

Thanks for your help.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
The other thing you can try is adb pull /build prop, edit LCD density back to 320 and adb push it back
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nico57m:
Thanks for your answers.

adb looks like the way to go, but I never managed to get it working on my computers.

"adb devices" won't list any, "adb shell" returns "error: device not found".

USB debugging was enabled in the OS.

Is the phone supposed to be in recovery mode or download mode? None works... (Also tried with the OS running before it started crashing)

Is there a setup guide somewhere?

Actually, working with Android on Windows (XP x64) has been a total nightmare so far.

On my main computer, Device Manager loops forever on device detection / driver installation, and successive driver installation/uninstallation/reinstallation mangled WMP10 completely (and since it's tied to Windows, I can't reinstall it).

On other computers, driver installation went fine, I hardly managed to copy movies to the phone through MTP / WMP, and never managed to copy anything back.

I only ever managed to move files over wifi, but that's at wifi speed, not USB2 speed...

And now that I gave Kies a try (stayed away from it so far), it keeps eating 100% CPU whenever I run it.

Can't use adb pull/push anymore: in a previous attempt to reduce the nandroid backup size, I formated the system and cache partitions. :rolleyes:

Then I managed to run a full backup with CWM Recovery, but can't find my files in there.

The backup files only contains application data, but the sdcard folder is totally missing. :(

Well, it appears the problem indeed was in build.prop.

My backup has 2 files: build.prop.bak and buid.prop.temp.

.bak has the old density, .temp has the new value.

Somehow the app failed to rename build.prop.temp to build.prop, and made the system unbootable. :(

adb backup won't work either: it's waiting for a confirmation on the phone, and doesn't seem to work in recovery mode. :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nico57m:
Now browsing /data/media with adb shell !

I had to mount /data manually (in recovery), I guess the same is true for a recovery backup, and that's why I couldn't find my files.

Tried a number of methods but having no luck at all :/

Omega v2.0

Revolution 4.3

So far I've installed cwm from the play store and couldn't do anything, i then tried cwm 6.0.2.8 & su which has installed but still nothing :confused:

Symptoms seem to be it loads into the installation then locks up, Left it sitting for 10 mins + with no indication of any progress. This is normally at the the option to wipe/not wipe. Note seems to lock up.

First you do this at your own risk.

OK... I have installed Revolution HD........ The File is (Android_Revolution_HD-Note_10.1_4.3.zip)

First you need to have a micro sd card installed

Then put the (Android_Revolution_HD-Note_10.1_4.3.zip) file on the micro sd card

Then boot into CWM

I then wipe cache partion

I then wipe data/factory reset (this will erase all of your user data)

Then - install zip from sdcard

I then - choose zip from external sdcard.

I select the (Android_Revolution_HD-Note_10.1_4.3.zip) and that should be it.
