Please see Update 5 at/near the top of:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2176452

Basically, a bad USB cable was making fastboot operations flakey, and by the time I discovered it, the recovery program was wrecked. Everything else seems to work fine. The Nexus is running 4.2.2, and I have toolkit 4.3.5, running on win7x64.

I've tried reflashing various recovery programs, including the stock one. No error flashing is reported (with the now-good cable), but going into recovery mode fails, showing the android image with a red triangle and exclamation point in it.

[Edit: To be clear, I have NO recovery menu at all - when I select recovery in the bootloader, I get the regular boot "X" in the middle of the screen, then it is replaced with the android lying on its back with the alert notice above it]

The bootloader appears successfully unlocked, and in fact the entire unlock/root process was fine, once the cable was replaced. That is, no errors were reported, everything seems to be ok, but I can't use the recovery option. Note that the unlock wiped all data, so it was as clean as possible.

Should I completely reflash 4.2.2? Will that even matter?

Is there anything else I can try? I'm not keen to try sideloading 4.2.2, but will, if there are instructions some place.

If this is no go, I'm going to have to try restoring everything to the basic original state and asking for a replacement from Amazon. I don't know how that will go, and this was to be a gift due in about a week, that I was setting up for the recipient. I've spent literally 8 hours on this today, before realizing the flakeyness was due to the USB cable being bad. Any help is very appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
So you've tried using fastboot to flash a custom recovery image? The command fastboot is a part of the Android SDK.

fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery .img>

There's plenty of stickies and information in this forum, which I won't re-hash here.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
The stock recovery WILL show the android with the red triangle. To get into recovery from there, I believe you need to hold the up volume key. Other recoveries shouldn't do this though. Perhaps you should try using ROM Manager or Goomanager to flash a recovery from within android.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stickplayer:
It took several attempts - flashing stock, then cwm, from the toolkit, before cwm finally "took". It's all working now.

Dear PDA users,

At the moment I'm experiencing a sound problem with my XDA. When I play a sound, it's playing it at maximum speed. When I do a full reset, it starts playing sounds extremely slow and speeds up every time I play a sound...until it's at its maximum again.

I have ROM version 3.15.15. Hope you can help.

Vincent.

What do you think the average temperature should be for just moving around the UI on the Nexus 4?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
depends on a lot of variables. battery temperature? cpu temperature? surface temperature? what temperature is around you? are you holding it tight? is it in a case of some kind? rubber case? is it set to the highest brightness? is it plugged in?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warfexion:
Lets say half brightness, not plugged in, and room temperature.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
temperature of what? you can get two temperature readings from the nexus 4, battery and cpu.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warfexion:
cpu, whichever one causes the most heat on the back which I imagine is CPU
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
that could be either, lol. but their temperatures can vary greatly. the battery temp should be room temperature to 104F, but can go lower or higher depending. the cpu temperature should be 30-60C, but can also go lower or higher depending on use.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] The Round Peg:
You guys split SGS3 forums into AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile, but leave out all other carriers. So where exactly does MetroPCS belong??

T-Mobile bought and owns MetroPCS. However, T-Mobile uses GSM while MetroPCS uses CDMA. Their SGS3 variants are not compatible.

When MetroPCS users root or flash their SGS3 phones, they usually use the files/packages for Verizon.

Specs-wise, Sprint's SGS3 variant and CDMA are closest to MetroPCS. But for some reason I've never seen anyone uses a package for Sprint on MetroPCS phones.

So should I post in the T-Mobile, Verizon or Sprint forums if I have a question about rooting??

This is for informational purposes only. Please do it at your own risk.

This loop is based on the recent findings of Terence Eden. He recently found a security bug in the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 which enables the user to bypass lockscreen security for less than a second.

The method used for our device is the same. Only, our device isn't unlocked for only a second!

Once you bypass the security lockscreen, you can access everything in the phone including apps, contacts, and user data. Only the status bar (excluding notifications) doesn't work.! I am not sure whether this flaw is only for Samsung devices or all JellyBean devices.

I think this is a major flaw and a big privacy concern for the regular smartphone user. Hopefully Samsung fixes this in the next update!

How to reproduce it :

1. In the lockscreen, press the emergency call button.

2. Press the emergency contacts button in the lowermost left corner.

3. Immediately after the third step, keep pressing the hardware home button.

Upon doing this, your device will be unlocked and you will be able to use it normally without the statusbar pull down.

Thanks to Terence for finding this security loop.

Edit : it works only on jellybean

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IAmSixNine:
FYI, T-Mobile has NOT bought and does NOT own MetroPCS.

They are in the process (going to take a while) of doing a reverse merger, where the smaller company merges with the bigger company.

I also believe some of the MetroPCS share holders are going to veto the reverse merger. As of now about 10% of them are figthing it possibly with more to come.

There are a few other things i could correct about the GSM (wcdma transitioning into LTE) and CDMA (LTE to LTE advanced) that ill leave alone. LOL

For now if you have a question about rooting id suggest matching closest to what your devices is. You pretty much answered your own question when you said metro users use the verizon packages.. So if it were me id post on the verizon side and hope i get some help.

This is my FINAL VERSION of my Idiots Guide for the HP Touchpad. Now that a stable enough version of CM10 is available, I finally created a guide for you.

[YOUTUBE]oepDGvIyXxk[/YOUTUBE]

Here are links to the files you will need:

CM10 03/04/2012 Build

GAPPS 10/11/2012

ACMEInstaller3

Moboot 3.8

Anything else that you might need, you'll find on http://www.reverendkyle.com
[TouchPad Development] aujbman:
Thanks for the video. It came just in time as I just purchased a used TP that had an older version of android ICS already on it and I wanted to upgrade but seeing as how this is the first device I have sort of inherited already rooted, it is hard to just jump in and know everything that I would have learned from the beginning like i did with my previous phones.

Anyways, I did everything you said except I used the newest AOKP rom. But my tp is still booting to the older version of android that I had on it. Any ideas? Feel free to pm me if you prefer that.
[TouchPad Development] reverendkjr:
If the AOKP ROM is using a unique uImage file, then you may see two different entries on your moboot screen for two different Android builds.

What does your moboot menu have in it?
[TouchPad Development] -SGA-:
Maybe your install failed. Try downloading and flashing it again. If you're trying AOKP JB, you should wipe both /data and dalvik cache to avoid a boot loop!

If using AcmeInstaller3 remember to rename the ROM with ”update-” at the beginning so that it looks like update-AOKPJB_UnOfficial.zip
[TouchPad Development] aujbman:
I believe it was the "update-" thing that was keeping it from updating. I followed another video tutorial which provided files that had the "update" in front of them and it worked.

I haven't tried yet but now that it worked will the regular method of wiping and flashing through recovery work? (Like, if I want to try out different JB Roms) Are there any files that need to be in a particular place for the recovery method to work? I tried that method first and it would never take, would always revert back to the original version. Don't know if, because I just jumped in and haven't been here from the beginning, I am just missing a necessary step that is hardly even talked about anymore.
[TouchPad Development] Jubmasterflex:
Love your work Rev! Thank you again for everything that you do!

[TouchPad Development] sylar73:
Hi, I have CM9 running on my TP. With the latest release, the camera works great. But before updating it to CM10, I'd like to know about the issues currently in this build.

Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] ljderm:
Where does one go when the goo.im site appears down, to get the needed files? Mirror somewhere?
[TouchPad Development] sylar73:
Don't go for external mirrors unless some recognized developer suggests them. Best will be to wait for goo.im to come up again, being a prime site, it won't be down for long.
[TouchPad Development] reverendkjr:
The goo servers do appear to go down on occasion. They always come back up a bit later.

Problem with installing GAPPS using ACMEInstaller3

Excellent tutorial for an idiot like me. Thanks for again for the guide! Question:

I followed the instructions step by step and was able to get CM10 installed successfully. However, I wasn't able to get GAPPS installed using this method. From researching I understand sometimes there is a problem installing GAPPS through ACMEInstaller3 and one can simply get GAPPS installed through CWM Recovery. However, I would like to use/have TWRP instead so is there a way to get GAPPS installed properly through ACMEInstaller3 and then I can install TWRP through GooManager?

Alternatively, is there a way to install GAPPS without using CWM Recovery?

Or, I guess I can install CWM Recovery first, then install TWRP Recovery, then remove CWM Recovery while keeping TWRP and not go back to the stock Recovery? I tried to search the forums and wasn't able to find instructions on removing CWM Recovery WHILE still keeping CM10 and not go back to the Stock recovery.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

[TouchPad Development] waynekirby:
Yes you can install TWRP normally, flash gapps in CWM then install goomanager app, open and click the 3 dot menu and install custom recovery script then it will install it

Now using a root file manager go to the directory called boot and delete uimage.cwm.img (this is from memory but still should be correct

If you're not on the latest OTA you can now ^^

Unless of course... it's too late ( for now )
[HTC Droid DNA] Kevin5377:
Yeah... Is too late. I really started getting into it after I installed the OTA
[HTC Droid DNA] andyroidna:
im sure there will be a way to root with new ota soon. then the addiction continues!
[HTC Droid DNA] UrGuardian999:
I really do feel the disappointment for all those that took the update. I would be pulling my hair out and cursing the heavens by now :silly:
[HTC Droid DNA] RGBubba34:
Didn't take an OTA here.. unfortunately, mine shipped from Amazon with the update installed. So patiently I wait for our wonderful developers to get root for those of us late to the party.
[HTC Droid DNA] JusDigital:
I wouldn't be so anxious to root the DNA.. I rooted mine the first day I got it and about 3 weeks ago had to unroot it just to apply the update that was released because I kept getting a screen popping up telling me to "Set a Date" to install the update, which was impossible to install with a rooted phone... so yea.. don't be so anxious ;x
[HTC Droid DNA] UrGuardian999:
Or you could have used an app to get rid of the OTA notifications for you, install a new kernel and ROM, radio and still be all the happier
[HTC Droid DNA] vdChild:
Exactly
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Or you could of flashed a rom that was updated, or flashed a rom which disabled the ota, or flashed the package that disables the ota.
[HTC Droid DNA] jerseykirby:
I myself cannot wait to root and flash. I have had the phone for about a week now and it came updated. I am close to trading for a Note 2 or GS3 I'm so anxious hahaha. I will be patient though haha.
[HTC Droid DNA] ickedmel:
I'm on the same boat sucks to have no root for ota. Well unlocked bootloader actually.
[HTC Droid DNA] John58543:
Unlocked bootloader with OTA? How so? I just want to root to remove/freeze bloatware. Flashing ROMs maybe eventually, but I think this phone is awesome out of the box.
[HTC Droid DNA] ickedmel:
The issue with ota is unlocking the bootloader. We can't do it anymore with the new ota. In order to get root the bootloader needs to be unlocked so that we can flash a custom recovery and flash super user granting root. Without the bootloader we have nothing. The people working on getting the bootloader unlocked it is said they have root on ota but for us to get to that we need the bootloader unlocked.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
They've gotten temp root on boot, but haven't gotten it unlocked or s off
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Where can I follow the progress of this? Getting my phone with the OTA already installed, I'm really interested in this.
