[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2trainz:
Hi just a quick question.I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 on Sasktel Carrier (Canadian), model mumber: SGH-I747M and i cannot boot CWM Recovery. I have deleted the two /system/ files that some advised to do and i know i am rooted because i have SuperRoot but I still cannot boot it. So im wondering how i could boot CWM Recovery (Keep in mind im a pretty new to this stuff). Is it possible to root my phone more than once without bricking my phone?

i followed this video to root my phone and i was wondering if i could go through the steps again and try to reach the CWM recovery mode that way or would that brick my phone?

Any help is appreciated, thank you! :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TechMasta:
You have to flash the recovery to boot into it :p

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2trainz:
If I were to follow the instructions from your link could it brick my phone? I've already rooted my phone. Or is this just putting the recovery into my phone? Thanks for the help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
If you follow the procedure in the guide there is minimal risk of bricking your phone, and fortunately in the unlikely event something does go wrong most of the time you can use Odin to fix any mistakes. This procedure will just flash Clockworkmod Recovery and will not effect root access on your phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xBeerdroiDx:
or just download Rom Manager from the play store and flash recovery that way.

1. Open Rom Manager and tap on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery option in the app.

2. You’ll be asked to select your device, select your device name.

3. As soon as you select the model, it should begin installing the recovery.

4. When it has done installing the recovery, you will get a message for the same on your screen.

*NOTE: I do not recommend Rom Manager as a tool to do anything but just install and update ClockworkMod Recovery. Do not flash ROMs from Rom Manager.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2trainz:
I've heard rom manager is a great way to install custom roms. How would you recommend to install custom roms? Through cwm recovery? I cannot install it through rom manager because it says recovery setup instead of flash and when I do try it says i747m isn't supported
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xBeerdroiDx:
what carrier i747m are you using. a fella i talked to yesterday had a puerto rican i747m and installed the d2att cwm from rom manager then flashed his rom in the custom recovery
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
The problem with ROM Manger is that on newer devices it can brick your device if you use it to install custom ROMs or try to use it to flash a recovery image even if it is a device that has official Clockworkmod Recovery support. I would recommend either using Clockworkmod Recovery or Team Win Recovery Project to install custom ROMs.

:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:HELLO GUYS;);););)​

FOR PAST SOME DAYS I WAS WORKING ON MY FIRST ANDROID PROJECT A CUSTOM ROM FOR MICROMAX A52-DRAGON VIEW.

AS I WAS GOING THROUGH THAT DEVELOPMENT PERIOD I DID SOME MISTAKES IN COMPILING OR AFTER INSTALLING AND COULD'NT FIND DIRECT SOLUTION TO THAT AND SO I HAVE TO TRY IT MYSELF AND LEARNED SOME THINGS WHICH I WILL BE TELLING TODAY SO THAT ANY OTHER NEWBIE WON'T MAKE THAT MISTAKES AGAIN OR CAN EASILY FIND SOLUTION TO THAT.​

OK SO HERE WE START....

1.) FIRST PROBLEM THAT I CAME ACROSS WAS DURING INSTALLING MY ROM ON MY PHONE.

IT GAVE ME ERROR "mount() needs 4 args,got 3"

WELL THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM IS REALLY EASY.

WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO IS TO

1.OPEN "UPDATER SCRIPT" WITH NOTEPAD++.(IN META-INF\com\google\android)

2.FIND mount(arg,arg..blah blah).

3.Now open the same file from any rom which is working fine on ur mobile.find the same line and replace in the1st one.

4.now flash and there will be no problem.if it is a case of format again do the same with format() line.​

2.)NOW THE SECOND PROBLEM THAT I CAME ACROSS WAS THAT NOT ALL MY APPLICATIONS WHICH I COPY PASTED IN SYSTEM/APPS FOLDER WAS INSTALLED DURING ROM FLASHING.SO TO PREVENT THAT FROM HAPPENING MIND THESE THINGS:

MAKE SURE WATEVER APPS YOU ARE PUTTING IN SYSTEM/APPS FOLDER DO NOT HAVE ANY BLANK SPACE IN THEIR NAMES.LIKE "MAGICFLUIDS" AND NOT "MAGIC FLUIDS".

WELL FIRST THING WILL MOSTLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT IF IT DOES'NT THEN TRY THESE STEPS.

-->OPEN UPDATER SCRIPT.TRY ADDING PERMISSIONS TO SYSTEM/APPS BY ADDING THESE LINES "set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/app");".

-->ALSO WHILE CHANGING PNG IN ANY APPS.JUST TRY TO MAKE SURE YOU RESIZE IT TO SAME SIZE AS IT WAS BEFORE TO REMOVE ANY ERRORS.[/COLOR]​

I REALLY LEARNED A LOT FROM MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH MAKING ROM.YOU CAN ALSO DO IT.IT IS REALLY EASY.

IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUERIES DO COMMENT,I'LL TRY TO HELP YOU.

THANKS A LOT..:victory::victory::victory:

Rooting/Hotspot info

First off, rooting will void your warranty. As a user in the UK, that warranty was of no use to me anyway, but if you are a Verizon customer, then it's something to be aware of.

If you are happy with that caveat, you should be able to root your phone using the Razr Blade exploit available here... http://vulnfactory.org/public/razr_blade.zip

To get the hotspot working, you need to follow the first two steps here... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-4-hacks/208266-how-wi-fi-tether-droid-4-a.html (the item number may differ, the important thing to look for is the Entitlement Check entry).

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathb:
Hi, my Galaxy S2 PLUS needs the compass to be calibrated after every reboot of the phone.

Once calibrated it works perfectly fine until the next reboot and then I have to calibrate to get it working again.

You can see if the compass needs calibration by dialling *#0*# and then tapping on "sensor"

If it needs to be calibrated the compass at the bottom will be red and it will say "need for calibration" and have a 0 underneath it

To calibrate you do a figure 8 pattern while holding the phone and the indicator will eventually turn blue and have a 3 underneath it to say that it is calibrated.

I'm just trying to figure out if this is a hardware issue and i should send it back or its a software bug.

Can soemone with a S2 plus (or even just a normal S2) comment on this to see if all phones suffer the same problem?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathb:
Nobody with a S2 plus or a S2 running 4.1.2 official who can test this?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justexpect:
compass issue

I'm having the same issue. It looks like

all s2+ behaviour is the same. Can't tell if it's a rom issue or hardware issue.

However I'm calibrating mine by rotating the phone on all axes. This way the calibration is pretty fast. I never succeeded to calibrate it using 8 shape movements.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parimal_ajudiya:
Mine also have same issue, even some time it show wrong direction, and another issue is I tick automatic brightness control but it not work at night, at night it need to controlled by slider, if keep slider at max and then tick auto, still it stay full bright, not decrease with my background light
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrildent:
Hi, this was insanely useful. Thanks. I couldn't calibrate the compass with the 8 shape movements. Although, even after calibrating the compass acts quite random and has the tendency to deteriorate from the correct magnetic north every few minutes. Not something you'd wish to rely on :(

Now that I know the right calibration trick and that I'm not the only one suffering I'll check the real-time navigation again.

I own a GT-I9105P with official 4.1.2 rom from Samsung which is up to date JZO54K.I9105PXXAMC2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
I have a normal S2 and I have never had the need to calibrate it manually, it was always perfect and correct , must be specific to the S2 Plus.

<-- Nextel rep

Nope, sorry bud but the XDA functions on a dual band GSM frequency, it will function on most networks worldwide however, for extreme security Nextel uses there own private network, developed by Motorola, called iDEN. If you were to put your Nextel SIM card in an XDA it wouldn't be able to find the signal.

[General Topics] Iandalton9690:
Anyone else think the age of console gaming is coming to an end?

I feel like smartphones are getting powerful enough to do it on their own now.

Just as pc's are taking a big hit being replaced by tablets and phablets (and for the record can we drop support of that word? it makes me cringe every time I use it)

gaming consoles are also dying out from tablet and smartphone gaming.

Maybe it is just me, viewing from my perspective where my PS3 has become a fancy bluray and netflix player

Maybe the fact that I work and go to school full time detract from my time to use it.

But any free time I have is spent on my nexus 7 or galaxy s3.

What are your thoughts guys?

re: my introduction to android

I had kind of a funny one too. But I was able to grasp it within a few hours of using with the help of a few friends.

I failed to answer my 1st phone call, not knowing how to drag to answer calls, I kept tapping on the answer button =.=

The notification bar was also something new to me, switching from nokia's symbian.
[Android General] Iandalton9690:
I found the transition actually extremely easy. I admit to unlock the first time was interesting, as well as answering my first phone call I may have FU buttoned my girlfriend. now it just feels right!

Symbian had just a button to tap on the screen to unlock. i made booty calls all the time with my nokia nuron, especially with the physical call button

i really loved the spring loaded unlock slider on the side though. it was really satisfying and yielded no lock screen. only pressing another button to unlock showed the lock screen.

Hello Gold4653, I can help you enable the OTG functionality in Xolo q800. But as I don't own the device so I would require your help. Download the app USB Host Diagnostics from Google Play. After installing "Start Diagnostics"...Follow the instructions if you have the OTG cable try connecting a usb device. If you don't own an OTG just keep going and when it tells you to connect don't connect anything and press back button and after that when it asks if you connected a device or not click on yes. After that take a Screenshot of the diagnostics page. I want to know whether the Kernel Claims support or not.

Before the mouse did not glow at all but after performing the above steps at least the mouse got power. I have no idea what this means but it sure is a small step. Although I did not find a mouse icon i.e more or less nothing happened; just the mouse got power. So I am hioping someone can guide me through the rest and tell what to do to enable OTG.
