[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpfnz:
I rooted my HTC One X 3 days ago and installed ClockworkMod recovery.

I then used CWM to backup the stock ROM which I moved (not copied, damn it!) onto my desktop via USB. I also made an online backup with "Backup Pro".

Then I downloaded and installed Cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM using ADB.EXE and flashed the associated boot.img. It worked ok but crashed and rebooted the phone every hour or so, constantly. After half a day I gave up on that and looked around for something else. I made a ROM backup with CWM and then downloaded Viper Venom on the PC and copied the zip file and boot.img onto the phone. I loaded the ROM and boot.img, using adb.exe - same as before.

After rebooting into Viper Venom the HTC splash-screen appeared and a groovy animated robotic snake moved across the screen for 3 seconds before locking up the phone and rebooting. Now it was in an endless loop rebooting every 20 seconds or so.

So I restored the Cyanogenmod rom but forgot to restore the boot.img file, and rebooted. This time once the OS loaded and I unlocked the screen this error popup appeared: "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped". Once I dismiss the popup it re-appears 0.5 second later, and repeats endlessly.

Then I remembered I didn't flash the boot.img so I rebooted into Recovery again but then suddenly I lost computer connection via the USB cable. Now, no matter what I try "adb devices" just won't find the phone. In Windows Device Manager the phone appears as "My HTC" under "Android USB Devices". An unknown icon also appears under "Other Devices" called "Android Phone".

Many months ago I installed the HTC windows drivers and have been connecting to the phone on countless occasions so I don't believe it's a PC driver issue but something in the last boot.img or ROM on the phone that has corrupted the phone.

I have googled non-stop for the past 2 days throughout XDA and other sites and the solutions offered to anybody having issues with rooted ROMs is to use ADB via USB or TCP/IP and do this and that. My problem is that nothing will talk to the phone over cable or wifi, so my hands are tied to make any changes.

Does anyone have any ideas what I can try to re-enable the USB connection? I've tried 2 newish micro-USB cables in all of my Windows7 64-bit USB ports (I heard USB 3.0 ports can cause problems so tried the 2.0 ports), and I've repeated everything on a new Windows7 build 32-bit desktop but everything displays the same in the Device Manager and ADB never connects.

I have a dual-boot Ubuntu desktop I haven't tried yet. Is it possible that would have more luck?

Any ideas anyone.............?

Try installing twrp recovery. Cwm does not have official support for our phone and causes issues

Try reinstalling your HTC drivers.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpfnz:
Fixed!

Thanks for both of your suggestions. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the HTC drivers countless times but the device can never be seen. Re. trying TWRP, well without USB access and a phone I can't use, loading anything else is impossible.

HOWEVER! I stumbled on some software called PDANet last night and installed that on my laptop. Immediately ADB was able to see my phone again (MAJOR YAY!!!). I rebooted into Fastboot USB and low and behold, fastboot could now see the phone too! I was back in business and ran fastboot flash boot boot.img to install the Cyanogen boot image. Within 5 seconds it was done and after a reboot the relentless error message was gone for good!

I have since copied the stock rom files back onto the phone via usb (it now appears again in My Computer so I just drag and dropped them) and then ran a CWM Restore. Then flashed the boot.img and rebooted. My old stock rom appeared and everything is 100% as I left it.

I have learned so much about root/rom/recovery over these last 4 nights trying to recover the phone so it's not wasted, although I'm sure I cut a few days off my life worrying whether the "brick" would ever go again :)

This morning I installed CleanROM from ScottsRoms as I like many of the HTC apps, but I just want better battery life. For some reason it seems I have got a completely stock rom now which is weird but I've asked for advice on the Scotts Rom forum.

Does anybody have advice regarding another suitable rom that has better battery life but still runs some of the HTC stuff like these apps: Email, Car Dock, Messages? I also love the HTC One X keyboard - nothing else I've tried comes close to it, so ideally a rom that retains that would be a major plus.

I tried Viper/Venom 3 nights ago which is when all this went crazy. It was stuck in an endless loop which no amount of clearing cache/data/resets/fix permissions could fix so I'm reluctant to try that again.

Many thanks for any advice!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Kole_Ackerson:
Make sure your dev settings are turned on and make sure usb debugging is turned on :p

And for the Rom recommendation you just have to try yourself per the rules we cannot say due to equal competition

Buut if your looking for battery life cough* bulletproof kernel *cough ;)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpfnz:
Thanks for the tips Kole. It's all good now. As for the ROM question, I didn't realise recommendations weren't allowed, whoops ;)

I did coincidentally stumble upon a kernel called bulletproof after reading your post :D, and chose the fastboot flash boot method since my phone is S=OFF - as per their recommendation, but sadly the phone wouldn't boot after that. Not sure if I should have performed any other actions (cache deleting etc?) but I returned it back to the original boot.img and all is well again.

I've since restored a CyanogenMod 10.1 image and is working ok now. Days ago when I installed it, the phone would crash when it was locked. I think I have identified the culprit to be the "2X" battery saver app I installed on it. When that's not active it doesn't crash so I've uninstalled it now.

Would it be fair to assume I should get better battery life day to day with CyanogenMod than the stock HTC rom? Hope so.

thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
you don't need to fastboot kernel after s-off. bulletproof kernel doesn't work with aosp roms only sense roms.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpfnz:
bulletproof question

Whoops, I got it wrong. The phone is S-ON and I wrote S-OFF in above post. I followed the instruction in this thread on xda:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38727496

I followed what's mentioned under this heading: hboot 1.14+ and S-ON since my phone spec. meets both criteria:

I think I applied it when I still had ScottsRoms CleanROM onboard. When you say it only works on sense roms, do you mean the stock HTC ROM or should it also work on a cleanROM which contains lots of sense stuff? Sorry for the newbie questions, I find it difficult to get answers online to the most basic of android/rom/root questions.

Thanks for your time guys!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shemsha:
Hi all,

Sorry for the question, but I would really appreciate help in understand if my wife's S2 battery is working OK.

The phone was used by me until a few days ago.

I gave it to her and did master reset.

The phone is 4.1.2 official.

She is complaining that the battery is draining really fast.

For example yesterday, the phone was connected to the charger until 4 in the night (charged to 100%).

Until 7 in the morning it was not used and with wifi/mobile data off.

In 7 in the evening she had about 15% left.

I will add that wifi/mobile data was on from 7 to 7 and when I looked at how much the screen was on, it was about 2.5 hours.

Is it normal? Does she expect too much?

I am also attaching log from last night. Phone was charged to 100%, reached 97% until we went to sleep and was left alone for about 7 hours (wifi/mobile data off).

In the morning it reached 88% (loss of 9%).

Is it normal? Shouldn't it be less?

Thank you so much!

Asaf
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
1) use 'Gemini app manager' to turn off autostart of 'Google map'

2) Use 'GSAM battery managment' app to see which app is causing batt drain while not in use.

3)turn of 'Location' service when not in use.

4)use 'CpuSpy' app to check 'Deepsleep' is Ok or not.

the above things will do help in bringing down the batt consumption for sure, if proper measures are taken accordingly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shemsha:
I will try it, thanks a lot.

I just want to verify that the battery info I wrote in my post suggests a problem or it's more or less reasonable battery time?

I am now with the Nexus 4, and I am not comparing but with the same conditions as my wife's S2, mine lost about 2 percent at those 7 hours (when her's lost about 9).

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shemsha:
Adding some info, hope it's OK.

I really want to understand if my battery has a problem, or this is just how the S2 is.

I am attaching BetterBatteryStats log of the S2 + one for my nexus 4 as reference (since it is in the same conditions) more or less. Also attached gSAM battery screenshots from the S2.

The log is form a different date but it's for about the same time range and hours.

Full logs are attached but I am also pasting a part here. From what I see, the usage is very similar, but while the S2 lost 12%, the nexus lost 3%.

Is there any chance my battery is bad? Can I somehow check it? Maybe by the voltage lost?

A guy here in India is selling phones on the cheap. For example, iPhone 5 16gb (unlocked) for 500$, Xperia Z for 400$, Note 2 350$, S3 300$, Z10 500$ etc etc

But the thing is, these are all SEALED units. Brand new pieces

So, I am suspecting these are stolen phones. Can anything bad happen if you buy them?

For example they stop working?

Now, until I'm wrong, only the cellular services will stop? If it does, is there way to change IMEI so it starts working again?
[General Questions and Answers] StarchiId:
Well for one thing KARMA can happen because someone out there is missing their phone and wishes whoever has ti BAD LUCK buddy.

Besides, I wouldn't get near a stolen phone with GPS, there are apps out there that when activated (usually when someone notices their phone is lost) track the phone's GPS position,record audio and video or take pictures and use wifi whenever possible to send the collected data to the email address of the original owner who may or may not forward these to the nearest police station. These apps are usually in stealth mode so you can't know weather a phone has one without the proper know-how and even if you did know it's there, in some cases they're rooted into the device's BIOS so you can't remove them easily. Avast! and Prey are only 2 of the best known apps of this sort.

If this is indeed a low price and you can't resist it and are willing to accept the risks that the phone will break and you wont be able to repair it then by all means go ahead and buy it.

As long as you didn't steal it and claim you didn't know it was stolen whats the risk?

I love the 5.5" display on my note but am ok about going down 0.8" as we all know size isn't important ;)

I can get £250 recycle for my note 2 which means I lose just over the same amount as ive had my note 2 since launch. I can get a payg on three for £475 and the launch models are usually unlocked and unbranded or £520 off amazon but don't know if it's with the extra dosh.
