[RAZR HD General] PlusBurdles:
Hey, I'm fairly new to my phone and it's currently running MoKee but I want to return to the stock rom. The problem is I have no idea how to determine which is the correct firmware I should be downloading, I know it's a Moto X 1st gen (XT1058) but I have no idea where to go from there. If anyone could help, that would be great.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JimmyCarter:
Sorry if this question's been answered in another thread, I tried searching and couldn't find any question that exactly matched mine, or any response that solved the issue.

I purchased a used, unlocked Galaxy Nexus from ebay around a month or two ago, in near perfect condition -- this has been the first time I've had any problems with it. It's probably not applicable, but after the release of the dev preview for Ubuntu phone OS I rooted the phone and reinstalled the factory image "takju 4.2.2 (JDQ39)".

Anyway, a few hours ago I accidentally bumped my phone off of a counter in the kitchen onto the tile floor. I picked it up and looked it over, and noticed no visible damage whatsoever, although the plastic cover had been partially dislodged; however, the phone's screen was dark, and the phone was unresponsive. I took out the battery and replaced it, then held down the power button. The phone vibrated once, like it normally did when booting up, but the screen remained black and the phone unresponsive unless I removed and reinserted the cover again.

I've tried charging it, plugging it into my pc, removing both the battery pack and the SD card, taking the battery out and rebooting it while holding both power buttons down, but I still get no response (and my computer doesn't recognize the phone when I plug it in). After reading a post where someone had success reconnecting the display, I unscrewed and removed the casing, then disconnected and reconnected the display from the motherboard -- still nothing.

Is there anything else I can do, or is my phone beyond repair?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bodh:
Did you check the other connections while you had the phone apart?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JimmyCarter:
I opened it up again and took pictures, but I'm not very knowledgeable about this sort of thing, so I can't tell if anything's wrong or not. Should I remove the motherboard to get a better look at the display?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bodh:
You're talking about the back cover which became dislodged upon impact? I'd say you're lucky that the phone still gives that vibrate. But it seems there are so many things that could go wrong from an impact. Do you have fastboot? [I know you said you tried holding down both volume buttons and power, but try pressing them first then tapping power.] If you don't have fastboot, then your only options would be omapflash and odin. If these do not work, it's gonna be hardware. Maybe the display is gone, if you get the vibrate but see nothing..
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
I have TMOUS HTC One S.

Unlocked boot loader and installed TWRP with "HTC ONE S AIO KIT". Phone works properly. I can reboot to recovery and do backup, restore, etc.

But when I try to flash ROM I get this error:

After that my phone won't boot and I need to restore my NAND Backup. I tried with several roms and every time I get the same error.

What is that I am doing wrong?
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
2.4.3.0 has had issues, try fastbooting it

or fastboot an earlier version like 2.3.3.0--it was pretty stable

http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/ville

---------- Post added at 04:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 AM ----------

also, assume you are following OP flashing instructions exactly and wiping both caches/factory/system

and check md5
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
Thanks for your reply but it's not working.

I flashed TWRP v2.3.0.0 and I get the exact same error.

I am flashing properly, wiping, etc.

Don't know what could be wrong... I am S-ON I think.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
you have an s4 version phone, right?
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
Yes, T-Mobile from US so it has to be an S4.
[HTC One S] troby86:
Yea, T-Mobile US is S4 only. I'm using 2.4.1.1, and I have no issues, try that one.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
Missed the TMOUs, Oops

Where did you buy phone?

---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 AM ----------

where did you buy phone
[HTC One S] troby86:
Also, S-ON shouldn't matter as long as your bootloader is unlocked...the only thing S-ON would affect, is the fact that you would need to flash the boot.img separately, but that wouldn't cause the ROM flash to display errors your receiving...fastboot flash a new recovery, reboot your bootloader, open your new recovery, completely wipe, and try again, using 2.4.1.0 or 2.4.1.1.
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
I installed 2.4.1.1 and flashed correctly NRG rom. Thank you for your help.

-.I do notice some strange things. After first boot phone resets itself

-. If I try to enter recovery by "adb reboot recovery" I can only enter on my second attempt or third. .It doesnt always enter to recovery.

Thanks again!
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
Bought it on eBay.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
Was asking bc didn't know if you could have gotten an S3 that way. I know nothing of the S3's except for processor speed is 1.7 I believe. But, if you flashed NRG it must be S4.

If you still have issues I would reformat sdcard, backup to pc first. I would then wipe all in recovery 3X to include System. Then reflash rom.
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
It is definetly an S4 One S... it's from TMOUS and also checked it with Quadrant.

With the suggested TWRP I am able to flash ICS roms and JB roms (after flash zip I need to fastboot boot.img). The problem is that I can't get back to ICS roms with nandroid backup.

Now I am using Viper One S 2.1 but my 3G and HDSPA speeds are real slow! So I want to go back to NRG rom but if I restore my nandroid backup my screen stays blank after HTC screen.

What can I do? RUU back?
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
the same thing happened to me, what hboot boot are u on, now that we have s off i had just updated to hboot 2.15 and i couldn't flash viper 2.1 so using the same recovery 2.4.3.0 ( now that we have s off and flashable hboots i just flashed back to good old reliable 1.09 and i successfully flashed viper, o and im running viper 2.1 and im on t mobile i get up to 18mbps, i got the build prop details if u want to keep viper because i love my viper and i would not changing for anything even wifi hotspot is working on this rom
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
Right now i am on HBOOT 1.14

I was trying differebt radios but i still dont get the 3g signal of my stock rom.

I am no in tmobile network, i live in chile and our networks use 3g 850/1900 and not AWS like tmous...

I am going back to ics with RUU... Will root and start over...
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
are you s off?
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
No. I think not.
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
Here is my question how were u changing radios on that hboot (1.14)
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
probably with the cm or sense radio installers in the dev section--:)

they are put into System on your phone
[HTC One S] MGA2009:
Yes, just like rugmank said there is a flashable zip called "Temporary Radio Installer V2" that helps you change the radio on JB sense based roms. It's great.

Do you know if I still need to match my RIL to my RADIO?

Regards.
[HTC One S] Ice Master Ben:
Im not sure, I have always gotten satisfactory results, by getting the latest radio and even more so by editing the build prop this last one can change the speed drasticly do u have the values for your location and carrier?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jbrooks58:
Now that we have a stock Jelly Bean Rom...how close are we to things such as CM10.1 and AOKP?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] neemot:
Have you even looked through the forums!!! Stop asking about ETA'S!!!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] quickshade:
From what I've been told we they are really close, but again they aren't going to put anything out that doesn't work fully so as for a real time frame, when everything works and they feel it's ready for mainstream consumption
[Sprint LG Optimus G] foxsdaddy67:
Why don't you look in the dev forums. That's where it'll be posted
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Enzopreme:
dude seriously?? wtf?? we've went over this with you before. theres 10 different threads about this... READ THEM. your making pointless threads and being lazy. please stop.

Mods please close this thread...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jbrooks58:
It's nice to know that you guys are hear to help. I posted this in the Q&A you know since it is a question. It seems that you have forgotten you were once new at this as well.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jbrooks58:
Ill try not to ask as many questions. Once again I'm sorry.

[READ] Stop asking about JB ROMs and anything related to JB updates..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dqm56:
questions aren't the problem we love to help and inform on anything we know. but asking for an eta when there are already tons of discussions on this and when there have already been multiple posts saying don't bug the devs, thats a problem
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jbrooks58:
I'm not bugging the devs...I was asking the community in general? Its just I came from the Nexus S which had well over 100 roms to the Optimus which only has 2. So I have just been confused why there aren't a few more for this device which is much better than my nexus. Im not even asking for ETA's mainly just if anyone knew about more roms being made. I probably should have worded it more clearly.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] neemot:
jbrooks58. We don't mean to be harsh. You came from a nexus, a device that have open source to a device that is branded by LG running LG software. It takes time to develop for getting around minor hurtles may take weeks unlike on a nexus our dev community works hard and we now have a flashable JB zip. Things are in the works but there are a few things that still need fixed.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jbrooks58:
Thank you for explaining! I didn't realize one was more open than another. I thought all Androids were open. I still have much to learn. Thanks for clarification.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Yerv Melkonian:
Hey man those listen to these morons it's not their fault that this is the only place in the world they're relevant..

[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
Haha...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Th3ArCh0n:
I see both sides of this coin, since i kinda just went through the same thing. I understand that he was just asking a question, but on the other hand there are probably over 10 discussions with the answer he is looking for.

But on the other hand, you are newer than me even, so welcome to the community, try to read and search before asking questions, and try not to double post either, just edit your last post if no one has replied. ;)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] johnq54:
The name calling is uncalled for, especially when you're taking advantage of the work that these people are putting in. This community has enough negativity as it is, and we certainly don't need any more.

Egos aside we're all on the same team here. Either appreciate the work or give constructive advice/suggestions. Enough of the insulting.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] outerpip:
Also, alot of the reason we only have 2 roms was because we were stuck on ICS. Not many people want to develop on an older OS, expecially when we knew there was an update right around the corner. So it was the waiting game. Now that JB has been released, and the source code has been dropped, this place will start lighting up. This is one of the best phones out right now, and it will start getting attention. So for now, research, read, contribute what you can, and enjoy the ride.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] quickshade:
In all honesty none of those thread touch on how close we are to being AOSP, so his question is relevant. In every thread you get the same answer, either "we have already answered that question", "when it is fully ready to go", "were still testing things so it's going to be a few more weeks". I want to make it clear that I'm not complaining, And am very happy with what you guys are doing, but if we had a little better information about what is going on and what the problems are maybe people would stop posting so much.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
If you want to know anything about ROM's/AOSP, go to the IRC. They constantly are talking about it on there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] evodev:
Do that, or msg me at evodevxda@gmail.com. I have most of the Debs contact info, and I usually stay up to date.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] WASSHOI:
I'll play devil's advocate here and point out how awkward it sounds to answer the question with what's essentially telling him "we don't use the discussion forums to discuss such things. Go elsewhere for that."

While it is the official channel, and it is of course easier to give such information in real time, in order to collaborate with other mods and such, rather than update forum posts; it certainly doesn't mean the notion of someone who visits the forums, and not the irc, could be given the current status if asked.

Hell, if it's over frustration that people keep asking such questions, isn't that more evidence that people would rather keep updated on the forums than have to visit irc?

I personally don't mind. I've lurked XDA for years and I'm too patient of a person to care about such things. Devs can take their time. If I actually learned to develop for Android I'd most likely poke around irc more than the forums as well. I frequent many Irc channels and own some that exist because of how convenient they are for information to quickly and freely get to people in real time but if there was demand for it I certainly wouldn't mind making things a bit more convenient for others.

Just some food for thought.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shelnutt2:
There are 3 issue with AOSP based things, 1 is a blocks:

Camera

GPS

Possible EFS Corruption due to RIL stack (<- Blocker)

Until we narrow down the EFS corruption or are sure it's no longer effecting people we won't release. Unlock most issues, if a user gets a corrupt EFS but has no backup, the phone is network-bricked. Yes there is a slight chance to save it if you catch it while getting any sort of signal, but if you all of a sudden loose all signal, there is no way to restore your phone back to network capabilities. You'd end up with a giant and expensive music player. It's cause of that we are taking things nice and slow for the moment.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] cowfodder:
When I see threads like this and people trying to justify them with things like "I just wanted to see how close we are" all I can think is that they've never programmed anything before, or at least nothing as complex as an entire OS. Just because there's only a few bugs left doesn't mean that things will be done soon. Fixing one bug can often create a dozen others. Add to that the fact that all of the devs are doing this in their spare time, for free, with LG 's terrible source code, and it will be done when it's done. Be patient. JB only dropped last week, and source yesterday. These things take time.

[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] WretchedXS:
1st. Unplug your Kindle from your USB port now! You haven't read enough yet!

But seriously..

Know what ver of Kindle Fire you own before you start. Is it a Kindle Fire, a Kindle Fire HD, a Kindle Fire 2? Its important. They're different. You'll fail to mod your KF and make a paper weight quickly.

Read the posted instructions. Read em again. Go make a cup of coffee and come back and read them again.

Search through the threads for bits of wisdom. Read the threads you dont think you need to read, you'll find something usefull.

Be prepared, you can do it right and still have something go wrong. Get a factory cable. It will come in handy when you brick your KF. Dont think it can't happpen to you. These forums are full of people needing help with soft and hard bricks.

Read more.

Dont rush, and dont work distracted. Typos are not your friends when you're working from a terminal prompt.

If you're not sure, ask before you try something. There are some very very cool people here who will help you. Some will even walk you through it on the IRC channel if need be.

If anything I've said sems vague or unclear or less than detailed, it's because you haven't read enough. I can't over state just how important reading everything over & over again is.

Oh, and lastly dont forget to have fun. It should be fun. (bet you thought I ws gonna say read again, didnt you?)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjc123:
I am reading what some of these apps are accessing on my phone and I am pretty much horrified, especially since most of them have absolutely no reason to be grabbing my contact list, or text messages, or email addresses or my mood that day or whatever. Unfortunately I can see the usefulness of these same apps, so I have loaded them. Now I am afraid to use my phone other than making a phone call (Even then, I call people from numbers scribbled on a piece of paper because I am afraid to put there names and phone numbers in my phone), even though the phone numbers themselves are probably being intercepted anyway. I could probably live with something like location access so Google maps works, but my contact list?

So I have downloaded Avast and the AFWall+, but the dilemma I see is how to protect my personal information while still allowing the app to access the internet, because there are obviously legitimate reasons for apps to access the internet, updates being one of them, accessing certain data on your phone because the app will not work otherwise being another. Then there are apps like backups that need to access all the information listed above in order to perform a backup. You would think someone would come up with an app to lock out specific areas of the phone, but then again that app would take that information and it would be sold to the highest paying tracking company. So how are other people protecting their information; is there a better technique?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
There's absolutely no need to panic and get all paranoid. First, you don't need those apps that you just downloaded onto your phone. It's waste of space and makes a person more paranoid. They don't work. They have never proven to work. They're also battery drainers. What you need to know if that you must know what you're downloading. Just be careful what you're downloading. Read the reviews of the application from other users. Google has already eliminated all (or most) of those malicious applications in the Play Store. If the article you are reading is about 1-2 years old, then it's just old news that has been addressed by Google.

I suggest you use this application instead. (Don't worry, it's safe.)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImRlLndlYnNwbGF0dGVyLnN1c3BpY2lvdXMiXQ..

Use common sense when you are downloading an application. I always back out when I see an app has lots of low reviews. I always read the reviews to find anything "fishy".

You bought a high tech smartphone, so take advantage of it. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:

It seems that T-Mobile MMS doesn't play nicely with the default .PNG screenshot format. They look fine on my phone, but once sent via MMS they are extremely blurry and almost completely illegible.

It's not a file size issue, as any other photos (at the full 8 megapixel setting) look great. So, my question is, can I change the default screenshot to JPEG, or does anyone know another permanent workaround?

For reference, the first image is the original screenshot, and the second is the screenshot as it gets sent/seen by the recipient.
