[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
device was working fine i forgot way back what rom i used honeycomb somthing ,

although i wanted to just clean it out and all the apps, so i went into setting and clicked factory reset , it booted into cwm i chose factroy reset/cashe again from there , now bootup says booting into recovery kernel and starts cwm 3.0.2.8 ,shows gtab 1.2 and NI adam rev5

formatted sd card to 2048/0 , data wipe /cashe etc. same thing happens

i was reading a bunch about nvflashing here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950 although that was for people who couldnt boot cwm.

any ideas , or do i need to nvflash?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
No need for nvflash. See this thread.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
thanks bro! you did it! its running fine again! :good::D fastest thing i have ever done it seems!

update: keeps saying FC android keyboard has stopped responding?

and the keyboard wont appear :(
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Can't say what's wrong without looking at the logs, but, since you said you wanted to clean out everything (ie. you don't mind losing data), do this in CWM:

1. Repartition the internal SD card.

2. Format /cache.

This will get your ROM installation into a clean, freshly installed, state.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
I format the sd 2048/0 and click wipe cashe partition then boot system, got same fc keyboard as before
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Hmm. Now its getting interesting. Time to collect some logs.

1. Boot into CWM.

2. Repartition internal SD card. (Remove any external SD cards from the slot first.)

3. Format /cache (mounts and storage menu).

4. Run these adb commands on your PC immediately after completing steps 2 and 3.

C:\SOME\PATH> [B]adb push [I]C:\SOME\PATH\[/I]t.sh /tmp[/B]
C:\SOME\PATH> [B]adb shell chmod 700 /tmp/t.sh[/B]
C:\SOME\PATH> [B]adb shell /tmp/t.sh > log.txt[/B]

Post the log.txt file here.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
okay thank you, i am installing the adb thing right now , although i dont understand was i supposed to do something with that file inside the t.zip you posted ?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Yes.

Transfer the t.sh file in the t.zip file to the gTablet and then run it. All the necessary commands are listed.

Just use the correct directory in place of the C:\SOME\PATH, and do all the steps, 1-4, which are given.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
OK I will try to do this, I am a n00b and was never able to use adb before when I tried along time ago. And now I have a xp. 64Bit pc and have a lot of troubles with small things I never did before. I can do this. LoL
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revized:
i am back rajeevvp ! dont bail out on me , i am ready to get this thing done ;) its been awhile although its time , this is all possible because of people like you and my son who says he wants to try and fix it !

( ps i am waaaay to n000bed to use adb ) but he even wants to dev andy apps ;) so this may be a language he can understands just fine .

UPDATE: turns out He ummm. wwell hehe. decided wipe cache partition, part SD card, fix permissions, format boot, system, sd, data and cache. now upon normal boot up we (me my son and the gtab get magic value mismatch.lol

i was going to have him learn how to run adb stuff get your log and now i cant pout in the t.sh file because i assume it only allows transfering to sd card with normal boot up because i tried to put it on micro and cwm doesnt have a option to search for external sdcard, so now ummm ,upon searching for the magic value mismatch i found this article and seems very intense for a small person like me.

asus tf series

I'm currently in school and a 8.5 or a 9 would be my lowest rating bc of a few miner cons but theres more pros then cons so its a must have in my book. some big pros would be more battery hrs, more space with the Sd card reader, and to top it off USB plug for anything from keyboards to mouses, or flash drives to hard drives. some cons tho it adds a lilttle weight all together and its a little screen heavy. still in my opinion it a must have I dont regret geting it one bit. plus it completes the transformation hints the name transformer.
[Transformer TF300T Accessories] cmendonc2:
Yeah what i was think of doing was putting small adhesive tungsten strips, used in golf, on the dock to weigh it down (weight isn't a concern for me) so it wont tip over. But I'll have to get the dock to see if this is possible.
[Transformer TF300T Accessories] quantic.chaos:
If you are going to take notes, it's much easier and less stressing to use a physical keyboard.

USB port also would make it much easier to share content with your class mates and other devices at home.

The extra battery is always appreciated...

Also, I've seen a dual linux/android boot project which supports the dock and it must be great to have a real keyboard and mouse for Linux.

Definitely a 10.

I've had SynergyROM for 4 days (same I've had my S III) and my battery life is less than stellar. I asked there (here's my post) and got no help, but this doesn't really seem necessarily related to the ROM, since other people there are getting twice the battery life. I am now asking in the Q&A/Help section, hoping someone can look at the attached screenshots in my post (link above) and help me identify the reason I can't get more than 12 hours of battery life with little to moderate use?

Smdcntl0 is your problem and apparently that's coming from your modem. Do you have bad signal?

Either way, I'd suggest to look in the modem thread for the latest modem for your carrier and flash it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Razor1973:
85%-100% signal all day long and this is the same modem of almost every single custom ROM for the AT&T S III and people are getting twice as much battery life. =\

And in reference to your signature, a jig didn't save my EPIC 4G after a bad flash. =(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
It can still be worth looking into another one. Btw, most custom ROMs don't include modems - therefor, you have the same modem cause you're not actually flashing one as you flash their ROM.

And I don't know about the EPIC 4G - I've only used the galaxy series. But it always worked for me :rolleyes:

[General Questions and Answers] Centurionmark:
Hi,

I was using Mildwild 7 and everything was great. Now my Desire will not read my SD card. I tried another and it will not read that either. I bought a new one and tried it but no luck. If I leave the phone until the screen blacks out then I cannot use the phone. I just tried this with the original SD card again and when the phone blacks out I can get it to work again...but the SD card is still not there.

Cannot mount SD Card

Cannot mount it in recovery.

Cannot flash new ROM without SD card to see if that helps.

How can I fix this?

Please help.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ArcriusOneX:
I know this is an annoying subject for some of you, but I haven't found clear answers on other threads. I am planing on tethering to Xbox Live and my Laptop. Is making a custom APN and deleting tether manager any good? Are there other and more effective ways? I am willing to take a risk and will stop if AT&T sends me a letter. I'm on CyanogenMod 10.

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I could be wrong but I don't think there's any way to do that.

After doing some more research it seems some apps can kind of hide it but you will most likely get caught if not right away eventually
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikelebz:
regardless what you do, the amount of data that you will use doing what you listed is what will throw AT&T a red flag.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ArcriusOneX:
Yeah that's what I thought. Huge red flag.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kparikh82276:
Tethering xbox? I can see AT&T being all over that. Laptop i think is doable but again have to limit it to general surfing and emailing any heavy duty data usage like streaming movies will again be a red flag.

Red flags usually due to usage in a particular sitting.

If you thether intermittently should be ok.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Tethering guard is not a "tether police" app. It just controls tethering. Delete it and you won't be able to tether at all.

The only way to avoid getting caught tethering is to stay below AT&T's radar screen. That means keeping your data usage under control and not connecting to red flag sites like Windows update and, yes, Xbox Live.

If AT&T decides to check, there are numerous ways they can tell you're tethering, and once you're caught, the jig is up. They'll put you on a tethering plan if you keep doing it. There are no apps that are able to reliably hide tethering because there is evidence of it outside your phone.

There is some evidence they devote extra attention if you happen to have a grandfathered unlimited data plan.

I pirated tethering for years on my iPhones and One X and never got caught. I only tethered my MBP and was religious about limiting my data.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:
to allow native tethering on stock at&t rom all you do is a little sql editing of telephony.db which takes like 10 seconds. as far as detecting tethering im sure it depends on your area. i haven't ran into any problems tethering though. i don't understand why at&t would care since they already screw the people with unlimited anyways where after 5GB of data they throttle you to 500kbps, or that is what they do in my area.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The exact parameters by which AT&T is monitoring/policing for tethering seems to be unknown any anyone but AT&T insiders. It also seems to be a bit random. There have been reports by at least a couple folks on here that swear that they never even tethered, but got the SMS warning from AT&T that they were caught tethering, and any further tethering would result in being forcibly changed to a plan that allows tethering. While other folks use it occasionally and have never been caught.

The amount of usage is almost certainly a factor, so using it regularly for X-Box is probably not a good idea. The theory proposed by folks here, is that when certain red flags are raised by network usage, your traffic will be more close scrutinized, and the data packets examined for evidence of tethering. The checks are probably all network based, so changing anything on the phone will probably not help.

Personally, I use it only occasionally, for very limited time periods and data amounts, and have never been caught. Most often while traveling such as when a hotel WiFi is not available, crappy signal, or carries an excessive extra cost.

Tolino Shine , a new e-book reader

manufactured by "Longmire" of the People's Republic of China.

reader released in 2013 around 100€ = $130

"Tolino Shine" is Android based. :cowboy:

The Tolino Shine supports EPUB, PDF and TXT ebooks, so choice of content selection is going to be wide open.

Other specs include an 800 MHz processor, lighted display, 256 MB RAM, 7 week battery life, and access to 11,000 free Wi-Fi hotspots via Telekom in Germany. :cowboy:

Thankfully, the Hacker "hecke" (might sound like a female hackeresse) found a way to reflash and root the tolino shine e-reader. Great job! :cowboy::D:cowboy:

there are recovery images available and from outside you cant see anything from root if the launcher and the apps are removed.

Other Peoples tasted this function. The only way to chech is the flash counter (if its present in this device)

It´s also availabe to change the shop system...

But you can´t compare this with an regular tablet, because in the most aps is no screen refresh included, so you have a lot of gosting effects.

Has anyone tested the Kindle App

I have had the Tolino Shine in my hand and I really liked it, it's just very similar to the Kindle Paperwhite, but I was really disappointed by the lack of features (no dictionary, only the store from where you buy it, etc.).

Now that it can be rooted, things look quite different. I already have a considerable amount of Kindle E-Books, and I really like how the Kindle App behaves, but I would really like to have a more "open" reader than the Paperwhite.

So, has anyone tested the Kindle App with the rooted Tolino? It would be great to see some screenshots... :fingers-crossed:

I summon this thread from the dead with my necromancy!

I just got a used Tolino Shine with SW 1.7.3 and I would like to sideload a comics reader app. Is there a known method to root it without the disassembling and Arduino way?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bell:
Ryogo-Z ported the TWRP custom recovery to tolino_ntx_6sl_twrp and published them on github. The build is compatible to the most Tolino devices. Using the TWRP is it possible to root the device just by installing the SR5_SuperSU Zip-File. Tested after 11.2.3 Update (Android 4.4.2). Using "fastboot boot twrp.img" is it possible to try/execute the custom recovery "live" without installing them to recovery partition.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thenexor:
I have TWRP and flashed SuperSU, now I'm not usre what to do to sideload and use android APKs: "adb install" doesn't work from recovery and I found somewhere that I could manually place the .apk in /system/app/, but the directory doesn't exist.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bell:
Ok, just rooting is not enough. At least an custom home launcher app needs to be installed. At least the adb needs to be enabled to be able to use "adb install". This can be done in modified "boot.img". If you do not find a modified boot.img for your device/FW-version , you can just create your own using original update.zip file (Linux required):

1. Extract boot.img files files

$ mkdir custom_boot_image
$ cd custom_boot_image
$ unzip ../update.zip boot.img
$ mv boot.img boot.img.orig
$ abootimg -x boot.img.orig
$ mv initrd.img initrd.img.orig
$ mkdir initrd
$ cd initrd
$ zcat ../initrd.img.orig | cpio -vid

2. Modify the extracted file "default.prop": Adjust settings "ro.secure=0", "ro.debuggable=1" and "persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb"

3. Re-Packaging

$ find . | cpio --create --format='newc' | gzip > ../initrd_adb_enabled.img
$ cd ..
$ abootimg --create boot_adb_enabled.img -f bootimg.cfg -k zImage -r initrd_adb_enabled.img

In abootimg commany you get an error about the unexpected file size with current value. Convert the value from decimal to hex, and write the new "bootsize" value to the bootimg.cfg. Then try the abootimg command again. If done, you have the boot_adb_enabled.img file you can flash to your boot partition.

4. Flash to boot partition using UI or command line

$ adb push boot_adb_enabled.img /tmp # Transfer file
$ adb shell
# cd /tmp
# ls
boot_adb_enabled.img
# busybox dd if=boot_adb_enabled.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 bs=2M # Flash file
# sync && sleep 5 && sync # to be sure image is flashed
# reboot
$

Did a Soft Reset, and it gets to the Today screen, displays half the items on it (sometimes less or more after every reset) and then just freezes.

Tapping the screen or any hardware buttons wont do anything. Im guessing something that runs for GPS Assist is starting on bootup, and freezing it.

probably you will have to hard reset it, it has been a long time since i used a wallaby, you should of installed a program called safe mode which allows you to do what it says and go into safe mode on the pocket pc, spb pocket plus has a similar function too. This would of at least allowed you to boot up the wallaby and uninstall the offending program.

have you tried just leaving it on for half an hour ,connected to the pc. it might not be actually crashing just locked in a never ending loop?

And you did hold the power button in while using the stylus to reset(A hard reset) not just used the stylus to reset(Soft reset)?
