[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
So, I don't know what happened. I didn't touch a thing on this phone, haven't changed any settings or installed any apps for weeks. However, just now, my phone has decided to start acting up in a bad way.

I'm on Paranoid Android 2.52, and I have been for many months now, with no stability issues of any kind. However, without any warning or cause on my part, something got reset. The first thing I noticed was that all of my settings reset to the default Android settings. I had to go through and change all my settings back to how I want them. Then I discovered that there's nothing I can do to get my lockscreen to work again. I have it enabled, I've tried every variation of lockscreen on this ROM, with delay, without delay, but the lockscreen just won't show.

Then I noticed that my notification bar won't display any notifications. It'll show the time, battery, Wi-Fi and other small logos. But the alarm, timer, text, e-mail, etc. notifications will not show on the bar at all. My phone will vibrate when receiving and e-mail or text, but no notification will appear.

Then I noticed that in SMS Popup, which I use, I can't un-hide the message on the popup. I have the privacy set such that I have to tap the little eye logo to display the message. But now that logo no longer responds. It will change color on press, but will not un-hide the message. All I can do is close the popup with the message unseen.

Then I noticed that my home button doesn't work. Either short- or long-press. Short-press should take me to my home screen, long-press should take me to recent apps. It does neither. My phone will vibrate when I touch the home button, but it does nothing. I've checked my settings, and they are as they should be. The button just won't do anything.

I'm sure there's many, many more issues I'm yet to discover. What on Earth happened to my phone and how do I fix this?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
I've tried rebooting, turning it off, pulling the battery for a few minutes. Had no effect. And I have no idea what else to do.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
Titanium just reported to me that my phone's ID somehow changed. This indicates a factory reset, but I certainly didn't do that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] elbscorp:
When all else fails I personally start completely over using this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1524081 ,boot into completely stock GB go through setup,reboot into stock GB,then reboot into download mode, flash Zen's A16 kerrnel with recovery,reboot,then follow directions for installing whatever ROM you desire.My two personal favorites(YMMV)are 2.3.6 GB deodexed,zip-aligned,debloated and BeanStalk
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
Yeah, I ultimately decided that the only thing I could do is just go back to stock and work my way up to BeanStalk. I enjoyed PA for a while, but all the BeanStalk discussion piqued my interest.

Anyway, I just wish I knew what happened to cause my phone to spontaneously fail so completely. It's seriously of a case of it working before I put it in my pocket, and it being completely ruined when it came out.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] elbscorp:
If you go back stock and run it for a day or two should let you know if it is a hardware issue.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
Yeah. As soon as I went back to stock, everything was immediately back to normal. But, my past three phones have all lasted anywhere between 21-24 months without any problem, and then suddenly falling apart like the Blues Brothers car and becoming completely unusable overnight, just in time for me to upgrade to new phone with a discount. And, since my contract is up in a couple months, I wouldn't be shocked if my phone's about to have its end-of-term breakdown.

I'd really like to avoid the introductory prices on the S4, though... If I could keep this phone going until about June, I'd love that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] elbscorp:
I don't have contracts and I've had phones with faster,newer,better hardware and I come back to and enjoy my Infuse more. As long as there is this kind of active development for it I will keep picking up cheap Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dstarr3:
Yeah, I'll admit Scott's solely responsible for keeping my interest in this phone. A year ago, I was still on Froyo and I was getting bored with it and wanting a new phone, but I stumbled across PA somehow and thought I'd give it a shot. Three PA roms and Bean Stalk later, I'm still loving my Infuse.

The problem is that the hardware's just not holding up anymore. I'm having the famous power button issue. I'm going to try to gut my phone and clean the button myself, but beyond that, there's not a lot that can be done about it. I'd really love to dedicate the Infuse to an alarm clock/media player when I get my new phone, so I can still have something to mod. But I just don't know how I'm going to adjust to the sudden lack of customizability when I get the S4 with a stock release of Android. :eek:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jazlee:
I just got my xda II from ebay and been reading this forum for a week now. All the rom thing is kinda of confusing but informative. The device came with

ROM version: 1.52.00WWE

ROM date: 10/23/03

Radio Version: 1.25.14

Protocol Version: 1337.14

ExtROM version: 1.52.82

Should I upgrade? I know it is not the original since it is 1.30 which version is this?

Any help would be appreciated.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] amateurhack:
Just curious if anyone knows if this might work for the Photon Q eventually.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2225022
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
We don't need that, Photon Q BL is normally unlockable officially.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] amateurhack:
Yeah, but WOULD it work if we wanted to unlock that way?

Just curious.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
It would - but your warranty would still be void (because if they are actually checking it, they will use the phone's fastboot).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Yes.

The result is the same, no matter if you use the official or the unofficial way.

The qfuse is blown > the bootloader is unlocked > the moto warranty is void.

No difference.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] amateurhack:
Thanks. That's all I was wondering.

I could see where someone would prefer to use an unofficial method. Seems like Moto wants a lot of info for "permission" to mod a phone. So, maybe someone would want to unlock, but not go through registering all of that with Moto.

Warranty, swarranty. Not too concerned about that personally. My experience with warranty is that they will find a reason not to honor the warranty anyway.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] galacticservant:
Just wondering, what exactly is the "qfuse" ? I am deducing that it is a file that tells if the Q's boot loader has been unlocked, but does it determine that fact regardless of if it's unlocked officially or unofficially? And, if done so unofficially, would re-locking the boot loader change the "qfuse" and dupe the Motorola team from determining if the boot loader has ever been unlocked? Thanks!

Moto Q stock with Arrrghhh's kernel v.0.10
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Here's some info I found:

"There are two kinds of electronic fuses: Qfuses and efuses. efuses are programmable, usually by software once and by JTAG multiple times. However, Qfuses are WORM according to the information I have, which means iff the Milestone has a security Qfuse, and it is blown, then this cannot be reversed. There is usually no software programming to the Qfuses available, it is blown once during manufacturing/initial programming."

Source
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] zDisturbed1:
Has anyone actually tested this on the photon Q and can say beyond a shadow of a doubt? I am guessing I am not the ony person who really wishes they could unlock the bootloader but can't because moto said no when they tried the official way, but I worry that trying an untested method for another phone has a chance to brick.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Every Photon Q is unlockable the official way, even from CSpire. You have a typo somewhere.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr723:
I am just a normal user not a developer. This is just a question to the moderators and administrator group.

I came to know that JellyBam is banned from XDA, may we know the reason please? It is really wonderful ROM and it deserves some space on XDA. XDA is the biggest and the best community for the users to get help and to help others. We all are dependent on XDA for all issues and almost everything related to Mobile. The end user is getting affected by banning the ROM to XDA. XDA is the main source for everything for any android user. I believe the problems with JellyBam should be solved (personal view)

Request

: Can you both please get to some conclusion so the end user get the benefits of the both.

P.S: I'm not taking anyone's side here. Even I am not a developer. Please don't ban me for the Suggestions & Questions for JellyBam
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
the problem is with xda and the developers. you dont have a right to know why they are banned. the problem with jellybam is on the developer side, not the xda side. so its up to the developer to solve it. the developer doesnt want to solve it, so they remain banned. it is their choice.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clark Joseph Kent:
Please understand this, the developer is banned from XDA and so is the work.

As the developer felt the need not to comply with XDA policies of Development. So the discussion of the topic, is that...developer is banned and the work.

Thank You.

Hello,

Developers, I really need help to get the ubuntu-touch port working again!

After the first release of Ubuntu-Touh I tried to port it again to our devices, but I don't get them booting. I only get a black screen. I have updated all sources on github and made the appropriate changes. You can find all relevant sources and information on my new website http://danwin.github.io/ubuntu-touch.html where I have uploaded the non-bootng builds for developers.

I still have the old builds available for those, who want a booting ubuntu-touch, but without any functionality: http://danwin.github.io/ubuntu-touch.html

Im really interested on trying this tough for mini pro seems to be laggy... ill try and see the ubuntu features ... if you need testers for bugs i can be one of them since i want this project to continue and become really important for our devices :D

To encourage other testers to try this and if they are concerned of leaving Whatsapp for trying this i leave this link here https://github.com/mgehre/whosthere/blob/master/README

Great Work Dan i hope to see new builds soon but since is easy to ask and not to build i would be waiting patiently while testing.. Good Luck on this project and i hope many developers would help you :victory:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lvints:
DanWin1210 you said on the topic of this phone Ray: "Not yet, but we'll have 2-3 days in kernel fixes available to add support for daily builds of ubuntu, Which have a lot of improvements." This would eliminate the need to create a new partition on the SD card?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TechExhibeo:
does it supports apk files or some different format??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ansebovi:
can we have android + ubuntu
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mysteryagr:
How?

For sure you need the SD crad even if we get support for daily builds.

You must create ext4 partition because you have no available space on your device for Ubuntu.

Different format.

I think it is possible, but we need a developer to make a kernel to support dual-boot :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rempty:
Really good work guys,

Only the transitions are lag, must be a problem with graphic drivers or maybe kernel related.

I think when ubuntu implement the radio capabilities(calls, sms,etc) this OS will be ready for day to day use.

Good luck guys.

Can some1 manage put the patches etc on the different dev Kernels thatz a thing i dont understand where to put these lines in which.mk and so on i have no idea

So plz update the device specific kernels with these Patches so we can use daily too

Or someone have managed it allready for Mango so pls help me

THX in advance
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I'm currently rebuilding with the modified kernel for my device to test it, when it is working, I'll publish all new builds for the devices, so you can also test the daily images, but it will take a few hours to finish building for all devices and uploading them.

At all the guys that ask for bugs.

This ROM is not for day to day use, this is for DEVELOPMENT.

You can test and try to help the developers to get a stable UBUNTU TOUCH for MDPI devices.

Ubuntu not released phone,gsm,cdma,mms all radio telephony.

Remember the Ubuntu dailies development started 1month ago.

For now, this guys do a great work.

I think the new kernel 3.0 and new CM10.1 will bring a lot of stability and better perfomance.

so i just copy it in sdcard/root and then flashed the kernel and cm10.1 then ubuntu part then mdpi fix.but it can't boot and i am stuck in Cyanogen mod boot animation.

did i do sth wrong?/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
You can't have a boot animation if you use ubuntu, don't flash cm-10.1, only the device-specific part for your device, from the first post.

Tnx but I think I did that.

Its wired idk what i am doing is wrong .

Have you also created an ext4 partition on the sd-card with the size of 2GB or more? You have to do so.
