Updates : Currently charging at 3866 mV.. will try to run RUU when reaching 4000mV

btw since Im noob here, may i ask what actually Nandroid backup is? Is it the one we can found in CWM at backup area? that is the thing i played around last night. Thinking after doing backup there, im foolishly go to format/data or system & causing the current trouble now. Actually my intention was to format the memory so all useless app folders will be gone after flashing new ROM. is there any way i can achieve this?

Thanks in advance
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Re: [Q] Need Help : Mistakenly format system file, now stuck at HTC boot screen

Yes a nandroid backup is a backup containing the whole running Rom, boot.img and recovery.

The problem now is that you can't enter the recovery to do any of that. Not a restore or a backup. The recovery is the main thing we need to get to working phone !
[HTC One X] astromas:
Thanks Mr Hofs for the answer.

Update :

Current voltage is 4142 mV. Howewer RUU still says the battery is less than 30% & cannot continue with installation. This is very frustrating. I will wait for full charge at 4200mV & try again.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Re: [Q] Need Help : Mistakenly format system file, now stuck at HTC boot screen

Very strange ! You can try to flash this recovery and hope it can be accessible

http://db.tt/iXT4t3NH
[HTC One X] astromas:
.

Me also getting frustrated. I still cannot run RUU although the battery is almost fully charged (4170mV) after charging for almost 2 days.

The last option is to try flash the recovery again & this time it works! I just download the latest Recovery & magically it run as usual.

Is there anything I missed before?

I still using kernel provided by u. That is fully stock kernel is it?

Thank you very much for helping me. I'm learning a lot because of this issue.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Thank God for this !!! maybe the battery was to low to enter the recovery....but i have never experienced that. even with 10% i could enter the recovery fine !!!

uhm i have to think back where we were ! hahah at least you can charge now also inside the recovery. or PM me with a login for team-V i can help again :)
[HTC One X] astromas:
Btw, I can see my screen is flickering a bit. I think that is caused by frequent screen rebooting for almost 2 days during charging using the script. However the flickering is not very obvious.
[HTC One X] astromas:
Hehe thanks mate for your help. May God bless you & your family.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
thanks ! now you can flash the remix rom if you want.

flash the boot.img from the remix rom, enter the recovery and perform a full wipe, mount the sdcard as a diskdrive and copy the remixrom.zip over, then install the rom.zip.....

Can i flash stock recovery with mobile odin
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
you can't flash a stock recovery. it comes with a stock rom, and mobile Odin is made exactly for flashing stock roms
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikash0513:
So i can go to stock rom with mobile odin?

And bydeway i already flashed stock recovery with mobile odin and in works...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
I was pretty sure there isn't a stock recovery separately from the rom.

of course you can flash a rom with mobile Odin, that's what it's for

Using the latest rom from Task650 2013.02.23 I'm not able to connect to some secure sites. One example is https://stripe.com/ but there are plenty of others, but no names off the top of my head (just want to point out it's not unique to Stripe, happens with about 1 in 4 sites I've tried to use.) I ran into this quirk with older versions of this rom as well. Happen on a clean install, both stock browser and Chrome.

I'd potentially post in the development thread but where I'm a newbie it won't let me, sorry about that!

Any tips on how I might resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Or if you know where I might look to find a more verbose error log, that would be pretty awesome as well.

Thanks!

Edit: can't explain what happened, but after logging in to a Google Account on the device and installing a handful of apps/updates everything works as expected. Case closed, for now. If I figure out what happened I'll come back to post about it for others who might run into it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RPelham:
Re: [Q] Couldn't establish a secure connection.

I'm able to get to the above website, as well as all the SSL sites I visit, credit cards, bank, mint, credit scores, ect.. without fail. I'm also on the 2/23 build from task. when flashing sometimes things can happen like this, even on a clean flash.

You may have to Odin back to stock to do a complete fresh reinstall of tasks ROM.

unrelated, I had to do so with a recent LTE issue that is now fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] maττ:
Thanks for the reply RPelham!

I have jumped back to older versions of the rom but it still happens. I wipe caches, format /system and proceed with a clean install each time. The checksum matches on all files used so I'm relatively sure I'm downloading what's expected.

Your comment about LTE perks my curiosity. Although not on LTE myself, now that I'm home I've I connected to wifi and this issue isn't presenting. The only time I run into problems is when trying to connect to secure sites over cellular data.

My data plan isn't limited or being misused so I don't suspect they've throttled the connection. Not lucky enough to be on any unlimited data plan and no high usage coming from me. No high connection counts... really nothing all that notable. E-mails and calendar sync mostly.

Does Bell muck up HTTPS traffic? I would call them up but I feel tier 1 technical support isn't going to be much help until I narrow it down more.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
RPelham was referring to going back to stock (TW) and starting over with tasks aokp. that usually resolves almost every issue.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
Search for stock firmware in the Android development section. Your bell version will be listed with the others. You'll need odin installed on your pc.

Well he was quick to reply and inform me my carrier is unsupported. Yeesh, like... really quick. You would think he lives here on xda. That aside I decided to try the slim rom and I hit the same issue. So it's not unique to task. However, I'm completely stumped at this point. It would be sweet if the browser would give a better error message! Keeping my eyes peeled for others with the same issue and possible solutions, but thanks again for the advice so far!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeanGibson:
The main reason I bought the Tab2 (7.0") is to view FAA instrument approach charts. Since there are over 15,000 of them (reissued every 28 days) for the USA, I've created HTML pages organized in a tree structure (by state and then airport) to allow quick access to whichever one I want. I have all of this (PDF and HTML files) on a microSD card, and I have installed Adobe Reader for Android.

When I use this on a "regular" Android tablet (Acer Iconia A500, Nook Color/Tablet, Motorola Droid), it works just fine: Using the stock Android browser, I navigate the HTML pages to the one for the airport, and then click on a link to display the PDF. Adobe Reader fires up and displays the PDF just fine.

However, on the Tab2 (running stock 4.1.1), the stock Android browser attempts to fire up the Kindle reader (even though I've selected the Adobe Reader as the default), which then crashes. Note that I can navigate to these PDFs via a file explorer, click on the file name, and the PDF displays just fine.

OK, so I tried a few other Android browsers:

Opera (not Mini): This piece of junk (from other experiences as well) can't even display a URL of the form "file:///storage/extSdCard/.../index.html" on the SD card. Idiots.

Dolphin: A bit better; you can enter the "file:///..." URL and it displays the HTML file fine and navigates to other local HTML pages, but when you click on a URL that references a local PDF, that's an "unsupported" URL. Morons.

Firefox: I'm not fond of the UI, but that's a nit. Everything else, including displaying PDFs from HTML links, works just fine.

So, Firefox wins the race, because one contestant threw up on the track before the first turn, and the other just before the second turn.

Wow, that's a long way to my question: Does anyone know of a way to get the default (Android) browser on the Tab2 to not try to fire up the Kindle app when linking to a PDF URL? I've rooted, if that makes it easier.

If not what kernel would I flash to go back to stock rooted backup?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Depends if your backup includes the boot.

If it does then yes, if not then no

But its not a problem, if your backup does not include the kernel then just flash the kernel you are on now...you know which one you are on,
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] chiefy009:
I guess I am on stock as its the rooted stock rom I am on, where do I find just the kernel?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Just flash a stock ftf and exclude everyting except the kernel...I have one backed up somewhere, but not here...I can post it another time, but you can just do what i said.

Also, look in yout backup file. If it includes a boot.img you should be fine to flash that recovery image and it should restore the kernel

Hi guys,

I've been reading up on some nexus 7 stuff but I'm pretty new to it and was running 4.1.2 until recently, I see 4.2.2 was released but couldn't see any concrete feedback on how it compares to say custom roms like smoothrom based on 4.2.1. Do you guys find it better than say smooth rom in UI performance and battery? I'm not sure if I should change to 4.2.2 or stick with 4.2.1 custom roms with performance/smoothness tweaks for now.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
Smoother here.

I found my N7 sped up with 4.2.1 anyway when I cleared up some space. Havn't loaded it down since, so that may be the reason.

The main reason I want back to 4.1, was the broken Bluetooth Audio, but that also seems to be much improved in 4.2.
[Nexus 7 General] ghost02:
Will give rooted 4.2.2 stock a shot then, thanks :)
[Nexus 7 General] dannysmith43:
I've been on 4.2.2 for a few hours and I must say the wireless appears to be erratic! I'm sitting between 2 APs with same SSID so I don't know if the roaming settings are too aggresive...but seems worse than 4.2 was :thumbdown:

I'm hoping Bluetooth is better than it was as my creative headset would constantly go out of sync on 4.2!

I'm running the latest Paranoid Android 4.2.2 nightly and it's running perfect. The Bluetooth works with the flashable zip fix just fine. I use my sixaxis controller with it and it's flawless. Benchmarks are about the same as before, but I don't really pay attention to them. I would recommend updating, I regret not doing it sooner.
[Nexus 7 General] kschumake83:
I am actually noticing better WiFi performance with 4.2.2. I don't have to use better WiFi anymore, it switches seamlessly between my 2 routers with the same ssid. 4.2.2 made my nexus 7 run a lot smoother and faster, all around it was a good decision to upgrade.
[Nexus 7 General] TrancerSte:
Bluetooth was pretty much screwed on all devices by 4.2.x. I have a Nexus 7 and a HTC One XL, which I used to tether via bluetooth. This worked perfectly when both devices were on 4.1.2. Now the devices pair and the Nexus 7 claims to be using the One XL for internet connectivity, but it doesn't work and says network unreachable when I ping from terminal.

I never use bluetooth audio on my Nexus, but I do use it on my One XL. That's pretty much screwed since 4.2.x as well, with poor quality and crackling. There's a massive google bug report thread on it, which actually looks like I've not got it as bad as a lot of people!

Where do you find the flashable bluetooth fix? Is it just for Nexus 7?

[HTC Droid DNA] drumz0rz:
Hey guys and gals. A little background: I replaced my phone through Asureon about two weeks ago. The replacement looked brand new (everything was identical to my original phone) so I suspect it wasn't a refirb (how can you tell?)

Every so often the screen will get these small flickers and flashes. It's honestly very rare, and I attribute it more to the ROM and/or just a glitch than anything.

This morning though I was just casually browsing reddit when my screen suddenly froze, went dim, then black. Then white lines started to "expose" or get slowly brighter on the left, then right side of the screen. It looked very similar to when a LCD display dies or has a crack. It didn't spread beyond the left and right outer most sides.

I hard rebooted the phone and it's been working perfect ever since. Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? Should I be worried that my phone might be defective?

I took a photo of the screen using a point and shoot camera I had with me. I'll upload it when I get home from work so you can see what I'm talking about.
