[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eskimofisherman:
Hi,

Yesterday my stock nexus died suddenly. It had 16% charge, and wasnt dropped, immersed in water etc. Its unlocked, not rooted, and running Jelly Bean 4.2.something.

Ive swapped the battery (I have 2), and it wont boot. The USB cable is fine, and Ive had it on charge etc.

I can occasionally get a connection in my Windows 7 VM, where the device is identified as OMAP4440, but im unsure how to proceed from here in getting it recovered.

I dont get any option on screen to use recovery mode etc as i dont get anything on screen. (Im sure the screen is fine - theres no damage etc and it was in my hand when it died).

I have a MAC and windows (via VM), so am flexible on boot options.

All help gratefully received.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iLeopard:
Can you even get into fastboot?

Hold (VOL UP) + (VOL DOWN) + POWER

Until you get you get a vibration.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eskimofisherman:
No - ive tried various combinations. Ive had intermittent success just holding the power button and getting the OMAP notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Maxmaximus:
There seems to have been a similar problem...maybe can help you.

Hello all, I've been searching for the past 2 and a half days to no avail.

I'm after the Vodafone UK 1.17 RUU.exe file; I've fubar'd my phone and can't flash the stock rom to start again. I've managed to re-lock the bootloader, but I cannot ADB into the phone to transfer a rom etc so need to start back as stock and cannot for the life of me find the Vodafone UK 1.17 RUU.exe file.

Anyone offer any help?

:good:
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
Just to clarify, I was unable to ADB or access the phone before re-locking the bootloader so got it re-locked in preparation of running the RUU.
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
http://d-h.st/Sp2 tryy that ;) and remember to post the end results ;)
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
It does state 1.14, but I'll give it a go and let you know!
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
only one I could find mate.... hopefully it will work :D If you could let us know that would be useful to know just in case I get in a mess sometime in the future :p
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
It's given the error of incorrect bootloader (HBOOT I think it means). Updating my phone to 1.17 changed the bootloader to 1.40 so I need the 1.17 RUU. Really appreciate your help though, and from a fellow Nottingham citizen too!

I had already tried the 1.14 RUU and that hadn't worked. Just need to wait on someone to release the 1.17 or higher for my CID. I'm ok in the meantime as I've bought myself an Xperia Z, so the One x+ will be sold as soon as it's working :)
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
First off I know sounds daft but.... you did relock the bootloader? if not is there a file somewhere with the old hboot you could flash?

And more strangely I had a xperia z until I swapped it for the hox+ lol Would love to know why you like the xperia better?

EDIT - do you need stock recovery installed also???

EDIT EDIT - what about this file? http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securekey.php?file=ENRC2B/RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299688_signed.exe

Oh and lastly the other freaky thing was the guy I swapped my xperia with was called Adam lol only he was from derby
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
Yeah I re-locked the bootloader before trying the RUU; even tried it with an unlocked bootloader. The fact I can re-lock and unlock the bootloader gives me hope that the phone isn't completely unrepairable.

The link you've provided has a different CID number to what's installed so it probably won't work, but I'll try anything at this point so thank you again :)

I like the screen size (big hands) and I find it runs alot more smooth than my one x+. The only downside so far is the battery life, whilst it's not bad I do feel I could squeeze an extra hour or two out of the HOX+.

Re the swapping of the phones, funny how coincidences happen from time to time!

EDIT - I've got it as much stock I can without the RUU, and I think it is stock recovery as the RUU only fails as the HBOOT version being higher than the version that's trying to be installed - thus not completing the install. Also, I don't think we can downgrade the HBOOT until we get S-Off.
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
i know this going to sound silly but why did you need to return to stock anyway? Could you not sideload a rom onto it with twpr ? I've been testing sideloading on cwm but it dont seem to work :crying: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995002

Its worth a try no?
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
My friends kid accidentally formatted the whole phone when playing with it. Don't ask lol

I tried side loading a Rom but couldn't get it to work, so tried everything before relocking the bootloader in hope there's an RUU released.
[HTC One X+] aardappel12:
Can also push the rom to the phone with adb while in recovery mode using the 'adb push rom.zip /data/media/' command
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
Tried it mate, as I said in the OP I can't adb into the phone so can't push anything over :(
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
right Ive just done a bit of testing, I can confirm pushing files and side loading dont work with cmw but with the latest version of TWRP 2.4.4.0 everything works file :D

I didnt try sideloading but pushing a file would do the trick.
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
could you not downgrade your hboot with this? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995685
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
Finally got the phone back from the dead!

Turns out I needed to reboot my laptop at each new command; i.e. adb command > reboot > adb command > reboot etc etc

Thanks for your help, if I find the 1.17 RUU I'll post it here :)
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Probably your SDK tool is incorrectly installed and / or the HTC's drivers. It's very simple to install have a look at this tutorial.
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
out of interest which recovery was you running ? also did you sideload or push the rom?

Oh and welcome back although you are sell it no?

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 PM ----------

@Lucky Thirteen Good tutorial, promptly bookmarked for the next time I format my PC ;)
[HTC One X+] adamtheluck:
I managed to push the rom to sdcard/twrp folder; which also answers the first question lol.

Just want to say again thanks for your help!

Selling it as I love the xperia, think I need a break from HTC and sense based roms for a while! Still like the hox+ but fancy keeping the Sony lol

I have got a swollen battery.My note is 1 year old.It gets switched off immediately after the logo appears but somtimes works okay.I am on an asop rom.Is it the battery or the rom?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coolkriss:
This is the most common thing now. I have seen that the stock batteries are not lasting more than a year.

Just go ahead and buy a new battery. It surely is not the ROM

Buy A new battery & everything will become normal

The same has happened with me. My Note is 13 Months old.

I was playing game AVP Evolution till late night. And in the morning battery died, I charged it to full 100% but as soon as i boot up with in 4 second the phone again switched off , No battery low warning nothing. It is really strange but the fact is that the Samsung battery are just die completely all of a sudden, unlike other phones battery which dies gradually as it looses power and all that ........

I ordered a new battery & everything is fine now.

My old battery is unable to boot my phone even for 5 sec.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayOverkill:
I am running my note on the swollen battery for about 8 hours now xP.Sometimes it switch off as soon as I turn it on but rest of the time it runs just fine.Anyways I ordered a new battery. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawgirlval69:
likeliness of it "blasting"... not very likely.. possibility of it "blasting".. it is possible..

batteries just go bad... a battery is only solid for around 500 charges then they just start losing their charge faster. i mean we are using small computers so this is just going to happen more and more. different reasons could cause this.... use of phone (it is what its designed to do..lol), a "cell" could just go bad causing the swelling, the circuitry in the battery fails causing the swelling, your charger goes bad and takes the battery with it (i had a cat bite thru a cable and it ground out..next day the battery showed signs of swelling and within a week you couldnt snap the battery cover on)... etc....

use is up to the user and their needs... there is a danger of the battery shorting the phone out totally and it never working again too. its not something that happens often but it is a solid possibility, so basically use good judgement...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] razgard:
it's usually caused by over charged (u don't unplug the charger when it reach 100%).

I've been using my Note more than a year and my battery still flat as it is new.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawgirlval69:
i beg to differ... the batteries have smart circuitry to protect against this. overcharging has not been a problem for years... i personally have left one of my notes on charge for days... it always stays on charge for 5-6 hrs past it being 100% and it still is a strong battery.. also just because a battery is flat doesnt mean its good... the swelling just makes the fact it is going bad more obvious...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayOverkill:
I agree with kawgirl
[Nexus 10 General] plastikowl:
Can anyone recommend a good stable deodexed ROM with init.d support? I want something I can install and not have to compromise functionality with. I am not looking for a science fair project. My intention is to run supercharger V6 and apply the other services tweaks. I am beyond sick of the stock android limitations. God forbid I run half a dozen Google play store updates at a time, it makes the entire tablet run like complete **** until it's done (harsh words for harsh performance).

I am throwing in the towel on keeping the stock ROM, though I saw many improvements with the most recent update (random reboots are a thing of the past) but I want to get rid of a few additional minor annoyances and zeppelinrox's scripts will likely fix that for me.
[Nexus 10 General] Fidelator:
You can add support for init.d by installing Pimp My ROM and getting it to enable it on any rooted ROM.

All of the ones I've tried have worked great, try some and find which one works the best for you.
[Nexus 10 General] iKarido:
Go for RasBeanJelly ROM and the latest Trinity Kernel. You won't be disappointed.

The ROM itself is too stable and too fast. With addition of some tweaks such as lock screen and Nav bar shortcuts.

For Trinity Kernel, well, you can never go wrong with Trinity ;)

Hello

I removed my laptop as usual from the dock http://headrevision.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/motorola-xoom-dock.jpg

and suddenly I realised that the tablet got stuck in some kind of "dock mode" but only in the homescreen! when I go into settings or surf the web everything is normal. Look at this black bar on the right hand side:

I tried everything: I tried factory reset, it didnt help. I tried to rotate the screen to the other side, didnt help. On portait mode, the black bar is gone, but when I turn it to landscape its still there again! Wtf is going on?! please someone help me!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
Reflash your ROM/Gapps?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romdroid.:
Do you think it will work? I already did an factory reset and wipe cache/dalvik via CWM. The bar was gone until I rebooted the tablet and it was back there again
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
It's worth a shot, or do a restore from a backup. Sounds like it might be your launcher.apk
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romdroid.:
I already restored my backup with titanium. Also I cant find "launcher.apk" to try and clear data/cache and see if it works (but I doubt it)

can it be a hardware failure? But I dont think it is because its only on the homescreen that black bar is showing....:mad:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romdroid.:
nope reseting launcher.apk didnt help

anyone with more ideas?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
Ok, so you did a system restore from CWM?, you reflashed rom/gapps? You tried re-docking it. Try boot it into safe mode - hold pwr button and both the up/down buttons all together.

if none of that worked, you may have to unroot-reroot.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romdroid.:
yes

yes

yes! one thing I noticed now, when I re-docked it and removed it, the bar was gone. If I reboot it, the black bar comes again. I re-dock it and remove it the black bar is gone. I am clueless.

Same problem, does it say I am in safe mode? How do I know if I booted into safe mode?

Edit: same problem in safe mode

Hmm do you think that is the problem? Because if you read what I wrote about re-docking it seems very odd :confused:

Thanks for taking your time :good:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
Does not sound like a hardware problem more like a glitch or something stuck in the memory. With it being gone in portrait mode ... really sounds like it's the launcher. Hang on ....let me get the stock launcher that you can flash. Let me know if that works ...

1. Turn it off let it sit.

or

2. Try a factory reset from your settings menu to see if that will fix the problem.

If it does, then all you gotta do is flash your rom/gapps.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romdroid.:
Sv: Tablet stuck in dock mode, cant get rid of the black bar in homescreen

I think I have fixed it. I did a factory reset, wipe cache / dalvik. Re-installed the rom with gapps and i didn't restore apps with titanium.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Space Gate:
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to build a Kernel module for the app "EDS" which can open Truecrypt Containers and mount them on the device.

The reason for building a new one is, that official their is no Kernel module for CM 10.1 so I started myself to compile one.

sovworks.com/details.html#compileModule

At the moment I managed to Create a virtual Ubuntu 10.10 with VMware Workstation but I cant find the correct defonfig file from the source of the cyanogenmod kernel source msm-2.6.37.

Also their is the option to get it from the device but I it doesnt exists.

So how should I know what file to pick up?

Also have to say, I'm completely new in this area, got only some programming skills in c sharp :o

Hi

I have configured on my device my personal G Mail and also through the default android mail app my work emails. Are any of my work emails being copied or backed up to any kind of server as part of the whole Google thing,

All I have to do on a freshly built laptop with Windows 7 is log into my G Mail account and logging into facebook the username field is already populated. nice!!

Is there any way of me ensuring that non of my work emails are being copied anywhere or is it simply ruled out as an Android feature!!

Thanks for your help

I have an ATT branded HTC One X, carrier unlocked. I've looked online and the sites I've seen have said to go through the OTA option in the settings. Since I'm with T-Mobile I cannot do this. And others that have me manually do the update, their methods aren't working. Does anyone know how I can get it updated?

Or do I need to borrow my brother in laws ATT iphone 5's sim card so I can get the update OTA?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sensationfan623:
I've tried here, here, and here. Oh, and also here, here, here.

Enough of your flabbergastedness. :/
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Half of those are for the Tegra 3 One X, so I sincerely hope you didn't try them.

The method in the last link has worked for plenty of people here, including me, though it does leave out the step of renaming the file update.zip. I did install the 2.20 ruu first.

Some people can't make it work. If you've tried and failed, flash a custom JB rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sensationfan623:
Alright thanks. I have only gotten as far as not being able to flash the zip with the stock recovery. I'm still reading, thanks for the input.

What happens when you get to that point? Are you able to at least find and select the update file?

Just wondering was jellybean worth updating to I have yet to update because I cannot see loosing foxfi, plus I have thoughts of rooting but really don't care to root because I am still on ice and foxfi is alive and well.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lekan Adeyeri:
If you want any new roms to work, i guess yes.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TeddyOFLove:
My opinion is YES, i am on euRETAIL jellybean unrooted stock (couse i lost root), but it is better than ics stock.

Battery is about the same as ics hard to say (i think on idle battery is same and on use it drains little faster but its becouse stock settings 1.2ghz cpu and project butter)

Perfomance is superb becouse of project butter mainly.

The only bad thing as always is software and things like programs and new stuff that not all will like and ofcourse some old stuff got removes like usb mass storage (dont know why :D), but is a pain in the ass.

Yes I am sure jb is better then ics but it will not run foxfi thats the only thing keeping me on ics, and besides I am trying hard not to root until I am forced to. :beer:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hansip87:
Well if you are on ics plus supercharger script, no need to go jb i think, because jb still lags here and there, only less. But with moto's ics quite a fluid experience, only memory tweak needed to be added.

I myself is using jb though, and because my wifi tethering is working fine, no need for foxfi though, and if you're into the camera mode, the panorama one is fantastic in jb.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] cmraymond:
In my opinion Jb is laggier.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ov_darkness:
For me it was really worth it!! (I was using D-wiz 3.0.2, and ICS EU Stock both laggy as hell)

Now I'm on Eu leak (retail)

I've managed to restore root after update. I've noticed I'm one of the few lucky ones.

I'm quite impatient person.

Laggy phones fly against the wall. ]:->

For me JB is blessing. It's fast as hell,

Especially camera app now starts a lot faster, Overall responsiveness of the UI is much better.

Performance is higher, but not by much. I've got above 75MFLOPS in Linpack, and 7700+ points in AnTuTu. (stock JB vs. stock ICS)

I've noticed no battery life improvement (but I think it needs few days to settle)

First charge was 21h30min with 3h10min screen usage.

Much better GPS fix and sattelites are now visible!

What's more: I'm quite sure that the sound quality both in calls and music is much better now! (I have good earphones and my ears are quite discriminating too)

I've checked what version of Radio is used: it almost identical to the "old" and "new" U.04.10.00R, and completely differrent to U_04.12.00R and U_04.11.01P. (i've compared them with WinMerge).

So I'd call it U.04.10.00R ver.3.0 ;P

Now I need only 1% battery mod (wich won;t disable my root) and I'll be perfectly happy with my RAZR :D

What's pissing me off:

*ugly Contacts (Thank God I'm using Go Contacts!)

*laggy start of IM+ (might by connected to some FB problem, because Facebook app also starts VERY long (like 30seconds?).

*screen rotation speed also leaves a lot to be desired.
