[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scyphe:
I managed to "rescue" my eMMC-bricked phone by doing everything I could find about the eMMC brick bug killed my i9001. No root but I can live with that until someone comes up with a better fix.. Good luck, I wish I had a better step by step instruction list on how I did it but honestly I just frantically tried things over and over in different order and finally got it going.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2234489

I guess...

1. Get TWRP 2.2.2.1 or CWM 5.5.0.4/the new 2.6-based 6.0.2.8 CWM recovery flashed.

2. Use QuickWipe (link in my post to the OP).

3. Use ODIN 4.43 to flash that 1.4GB fixmev2.tar file (I did it at least 2-3 times during different stages)

4. Follow the instructions in the links in my post.

5. Good luck.

6. Wait for the devs to solve this problem permanently with new kernels and ROMs and thank them when they solve it.

EDIT: after it died last night (tried to force root permissions and it would no longer boot) and fiddling to get it back to working condition I tried flashing the file in this post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38671295&postcount=2) to reset partitions and the phone is now stone dead... a true brick.. absolutely nothing happens when I try to power up, enter recovery mode, whatever.. it's dead... stone cold..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toruk.Makto:
Hello Dev / Members,

I Flashed a ROM (Xperia_Z ROM for Note N7000 by AmniX). It doesn't have stock Email.apk in it. I tried to push "secemail.apk" in /system/app and set the permission to rw--r--r, apk is getting installed, also showing the Email icon. But after putting my email ID and passwords, it shows only one message "Trying to communicate with Server" and keeps on showing until I click cancel. I waited for more than an hour (Seriously more than an hour). In parallel other email clients are working but those are free and having some limitations.

My Question is, After installing Email.apk, is there any other file (probably which I'm missing) which sync with the servers ??? May be that file is missing in that ROM. I know its not a problem with ROM, as other free email clients are working.

Please Help.

Thanks

Just Place both files on preload/symlnk/system/app/<here> and write permission as rw-r-r with any root explorer. Now reboot and cheak.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gandhidog:
Hi all,

I've been running DKstunna's CM9 global rom with aeroeven's v14 kernel for a few weeks now. It's a great stable ICS rom that makes for a great daily driver.

My question is if anyone has tips to make the phone snappier. For example, if I hit the search button, it takes a full 4 or 5 seconds before google now comes up. Another example, if I'm installing an app, there is significant slowdown all over the place.

I know I'm working with a phone a few generations old, but does anyone have tips to make the phone snappier? I'm open to everything, including flashing new roms, new kernels, etc. All I'd be wary of is flashing roms that would decrease phone stability.

BTW I did a search! but didn't see anything.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brymaster5000:
You probably didn't know what to search for...hence the results. You need to look for overclocking, cpu governors, minfree settings, zip align, and there are others that speed up your phone.

First: under performance settings, what max cpu frequency do you have it checked as? And what governor are you using - I personally like smartassv2.

Second: try a different kernel if you have already overclocked and set the governor.

Third: try a script like v6 supercharger. There are a lot of them that take care of some of the above mentioned stuff for you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gandhidog:
Thanks for all this! You are correct, I clearly had no idea what to look for.

My min cpu frequency is 245 mhz, max is 1024 mhz. The governor is smartassv2 - it must have flashed along with another rom/kernel I may have tried in the past.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dizzean:
Hey all,

I am in the US I bought this I9300 that won't boot thinking I could simply reflash it and use it/resell it.

It won't boot into custom recovery or the OS. Last night it was stuck on the Samsung screen but I did some reading and found this guide: widefide (dot) com/mobile/galaxy-s3-boot-problem-solution (spam filter)

I was able to use Odin to reflash the PIT that was linked there so now the phone gets to the Firmware/Kies screen.

I have tried flashing any stock ROM (I'm not even sure which 1 I should be flashing) and/or installing CMW and Odin either gets stuck on SetupConnection.. or <ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!

Is there anything I can do to recover this phone? I'm pretty savvy so as long as the tools exist I anticipate that I can fix this.

Sorry. My mistake
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] xperiacle:
Just wanted to share this for those not in the know - mostly noobs like me.

With the exception of Alliance ROM, practically all custom JB Roms here are using Philz kernel with Philz's CWM Touch Recovery. There is of course Speedmod kernel but without the Touch recovery interface. If you are having issues with any of the above kernels and/or recoveries, maybe you would like to try Robbie's awesome AllianceROM but if you prefer to use another ROM or are using your own custom ROM like I do and would like to try Alliance custom kernel with TWRP recovery - also touch-based interface like Philz's kernels - without having to download the whole AllianceROM and extract the kernel zimage file and trying to figure out how to flash it, then the easiest way to get and flash/install it is:

Requires a rooted TW JB 4.1.2 ROM:

1. Install ROM Customizer app from Play Store

2. Run Rom Customizer and grant superuser/root permissions.

3. Click on "Browse OTA Content" and there you will see the kernel, modems and various bootanimations compatible for most JB 4.1.2 TW Roms. (I tried it with LSZ, LSC, LM5, LSF & LSE and it works great.)

4. Just browse thru the kernel category, choose "Alliance-XXLSZ" and click start to download.

5. After download, click the disk button/icon at the top right corner

6. then on the next page click on the arrow button/icon at the top right corner and it will ask you to flash

7. just click YES and it will install the kernel with TWRP recovery

8. after install, app will ask to reboot, just click reboot and you are done.

9. To check how TWRP looks like and if it was installed, just boot into Recovery mode using Rom Customizer or via Extended Power Menu.

10. Enjoy a so far no-bootloop (for me) with great a very simple touch interface recovery.

11. You can always go back to Philz or speedmod kernels/recovery if you want by flashing their respective files.

BIG THANKS to ficeto. :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] strategist99:
yep stay hungry stay foolish

good going..

by the way anyone can give me a method for reverse of the same..

i mean kernel with TWRP change to same kernel with CWM, with touch options like slim bean 2.5 in note if possible.

sorry for the troll question but since it relates to me, i asked.

few days ago i was doing random things in my o3d and when i finished i pressed the power button to lock the screen but whenever i press that button the phone take screenshot instead of locking the phone screen

i want to know what i did to let the phone takes screenshots with the power button???

to end this i long pressed on Home button and closed all previous apps. then the phone returned to normal

but how did this happened ?? i want to take screenshots without any apps.

[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman5:
Hi All,

I've had an L7 for a while now. Since about 2 months I started experiencing connection problems with data connection. The phone very frequently drops HSPA to Edge then 3G to nothing then goes back to HSPA again. It is a bit irritating but I lived with it until now. Now I would like to try the new CM Rom as the stock ROM is embarassingly slow. To this I will need to root the phone which would mean loosing the warranty on the phone. I was wondering if I should first bring it to a repair station and have it checked before I root it or should it be a sofware issue which would be corrected with the new ROM? What do you think?

Thanks in advance for the help!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 23Six:
Can this be fixed with an update?

I'm planning to switch my S3 for a white model that doesn't vibrate no matter what. And he/she isn't the only one with a non vibrating XZ.

Also how does the screen compare to S3 bar viewing angles.

Exynos S III @ 1.2GHz, CM10.1
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deffjeff:
Not vibrating issues? Elaborate... Was it like that out of the box, did it work at some point and now it doesn't? Give us some more info than just saying "not vibrating".

If it didn't function out of the box, return it.

If you've rooted it, and flashed a ROM, and it doesn't work, go back to where u came from.

In case it doesn't work after that, yer outta luck. Luckily I never had to go to a repair process.

Screen subpar compared to others? That was highlighted in many reviews before the phone was on the market, so if you did not pay attention to reviews, that is yer own fault.

Plus you had time to return it after the initial purchase.... Assuming that it was purchased in a normal fashion.

And please. Not specifying an issue does not actually help. It adds to the general confusion.

Is like stating that the volume on yer tv doesn't work, without stating how, and since when it happened. Could be a "person in chair" symptom as we perceive it in the IT world....
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 23Six:

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErichSan:

Do you have Stamina Mode on in your C6603? Try switching off, restarting phone. Also, through service menu, does the vibration work?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibecatalin:
Is it normal that the vibration intensity rises when you press the touchscreen repeatedly ? I mean if I dial a phone number very quick, or just press one number on the dialpad I can hear the vibrator going faster, is this normal?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamud.q:
I'm facing a problem that the vibration not working probably some times it doesn't works for a day then it works again ?? any suggestions ?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l0tech:
I had similar but then realised I was being rather stupid (although you could argue the design is somewhat stupid...). Basically, when you turn the volume down all the way, there's 2 modes. If you go one click past zero volume with the rocker on the side of the phone, the phone should vibrate to let you know it's in silent and vibrate mode. However, if you click the volume down again, it shuts off all sound AND vibrations. So what I was doing is just mashing down on the volume down button and not realising I was shutting off vibrate.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 23Six:
Guess I'll just have to send the phone in for repair. I'll hold for now because I'm in live with this phone.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae18708:
Many of you have compplained about sd card corrupting i havent experienced that but this, morning i woke up to my music and videos, missing from my sd card. I know they were on there because i listened to a song with my headphones on, and when i laid down for sleep i watched 30 mins of a training video for certification test ill be taking next month.

Weird right.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Is this a question?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae18708:
Lol I meant to ask if anyone has seen behavior like this? That's about 10 GB gone and only 512 mb in lost.dir.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
So the files are actually gone? Did you lose everything, or just some of your files?

How are you checking if the files are still there? File explorer app on the phone, plugging in the phone to your PC - or perhaps the best option, pull the card and use a card reader?

Very strange indeed. I've used this phone for 8 months or so - while I've always had the same SD card in it, I've never had data go missing.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae18708:
I was able to recover about 4GB, it was that little because i copied some files over while getting dressed in the morning (not realizing that files had been lost). The training videos were about 6gb but i didnt really care about those since i have a subscription to cbt. Most of photos and videos are lost now tho. Something told me to dd this sdcard the day before.

I used photorec on linux and recuva in a virtual machine. I put the sdcard in a usb card reader.

The only theory i have is that my battery died because i didnt charge it that night (was at about 30%), and it didnt shut down properly in time. You would think it would have time to shutdown properly but that's the only reason I could come up with.
