Hey I replied back but you didnt answer.

But thats ok its better to keep this in the thread so thers can chime in and if we find a solution others who have this exact prob will find a fix.

As I wrote to you please confirm:

Your native language (maybe others who speak your tounge will better help)

I asked you what was the first thing you did with phone. (Root , any mods and exactly which rom.There are to many roms to be vague.)

I asked you what model you said rogers but above I noticed something about wind mobile?

First lesson: if you dont root your phone, you can NOT intsall a new rom, meaning you can ONLY do a factory reset, or install exact OEM (stock) rom viaodin or kies.

By the way . IM not gonna keep repeating "Kies Emergency Firmware Recovery" From now on when I say kies, im only talking about that function of kies.

So Example: A Rogers mobile, rooted or not, CANNOT have a wind, att, verizon tmobile or what ever installed. This is exactly why your phone is s-bricked. Like Bajanman said and as I told you if it powers on your good. Your just stuck.

This is called a bootloop; aka soft brick.

Also to complicate things more I am suspecting that you may have

Installed a custom kernel. Ooooops :(

Locked phones will def brick if you do that.

rage.jpg

As I said sometimes mobile phones are picky you may have to uninstall and reinstall : usb drivers, microsoft drivers, use different computer etc. Thats another thing; what computer and Operating System are you using?

PC right? What OS?

I dont have and despise face book but here are two other options.

If you live in the usa mail me your phone and ill take care of it.

Right now all other xda'rs are lulzing and gonna say dont do that.

:silly:

Understandably if you say no if you wanna dl yahoo or msn messenger we can do it that way.

The best thing to do dude is find a friend who speaks and understands english better than you and get them to translate

Or help.

If odin fails and kies EFR fails you are doing it wrong.

Even if your recoveryis corruptedit doesnt matter. If you can get

Into Download mode (its a two step process explained above)

Your phone can be fixed.

The other option is adb push and im sorry my fingers would fall off typing that out :lol:

You will have to do some leg work and research using adb to basically "force" the firmware into your partition. This is, c9rrefte if im wrong guys, basically what kies emergency recovery does but "automagically" :D

Why do I feel like mr miyagi : turn on! Turn off! Put in download mode..again! Now wax my hard drive! !

:D

Do you have a camera? Pics or maybe a youtube vid would help.

Its 3am here im crashin.

I feel for ya bud.

:thumbup:

Edit: I just thought of something. Pull out your sd card and sim.

Dont put them back in until this is fixed.

This may even solve your problem.

From now on evey time you restart your phone pull out your battery and hold pkwer for a few seconds. No this is not a magic trick it just ensures most of the power is drained.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
+1 again freakboy :D

Everything your telling him is correct.:thumbup::thumbup:He should be happy he's getting into download mode.

And not hard bricked. But if he's not careful it will b hard bricked.

LMAO at the Mr. Miyagi, wax on wax off..

Just a silly obsevation here, but you tell them to pull the battery and then go into recovery with the proper key press sequence. You forgot to tell them to put the battery back in the step by step sequence. Picturing op sitting there and not getting it to power up because battery is sitting next to phone.:rolleyes: like I said, silly but I have encountered sillier.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] freakboy13:
What happens when you try to get into recovery? Describe the screen please.also describe exactly what happens when you the to the point if using the EFR.

You are doing the efr Right?

You are not doing the upgrade...correct?

You need to describe in more detail whats happening when its failing.

Just saying "its not working" makes it tough.

I still think youre doing something wrong.

:p

Because the next step is to push the firmware and .....thats a bit more complicated.

Make sure you are NOT doing an upgrade, because before I made my pic guide you mentioned "I tried the upgrade".

You dont want to upgrade.

Keep trying dawg.

Please help me help you by explaining and describing the screen.

And so on.

Picsc would be better!

Describe the screen when you are in dl mode please. Remember dl mode is 2 parts.

Maybe some one else can chime in.

Theres gotta be someone in your area on these forums or others, who can maybe meet up and helpnyou in person?

Hi Everyone,

This is my first ever post, so please go easy on me! I am sorry if this is missed placed, if so please may you kindly direct me to the right place.

I have an idea for an app and was wondering if i could find someone interested in developing and bringing it to life. The main platform to start with would preferably be on android, then cross platform from there.

I have a few channels to market it once it is born and grow it with no problems.

I am willing to pay however the simple fact that i am searching in a forum instead of going direct to a company should say alot about my financial situation :o However the more it grows the more money we will make. (maybe a percentage agrrement on sales)

I will say it is a complex idea and will require an advanced developer.

I am looking for someone who loves what they do.

Please get in contact with me and we will go from there!

Has anyone confirmed that HD Voice, or AMR-WB, works on the ZL? They say it works on the Z, but in the service menu, all I'm seeing is AMR-FR. That seems to max out at 12.20Kbps, while AMR-WB supports up to 23.85Kbps. Is the service menu correct, or is there a way to enable HD Voice? Or am I just being paranoid? :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penneyworth:
I published a free app less than two weeks ago under games/brain&puzzle. I did a little bit of advertising with appbrain to get the ball rolling, and now the app has over 5,000 downloads from all over the world. Also 20 ratings appeared. The app has only one crash reported (some kind of audio not available problem that I absolutely cannot replicate).

Still, the app does not appear on the top new free list under brain&puzzle. I see other apps that have been published more recently that have 100+ downloads and terrible or nonexistent reviews. There must be other factors that weigh in - other than google's explanation that the "most popular" free games from the past 30 days appear in the list. Does anyone have any idea what these other factors might be?

Given the numbers, my app is "more popular" than many apps that do appear, and I wonder if there is any information available as to why. How does this list really get generated?

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zameus:
Just got this bad boy this past weekend, and I'm loving this phone. Got it rooted and was anxious to see what ROMS/customizations were out for this phone, but it seems there's just a handful of select ROMS that are available. It's been 5 to 6 months that the phone came out. Is everyone just on another band wagon? Is it too early? Really hoping that development picks up! Cheers to all the devs out there for all their hard work and dedication. I wish I could develop. :)
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt99017d:
Well, it just got a BL unlock. Be patient and hold tight, OR get into the kitchen and start cooking!
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquireSCA:
There will be a few ROMs put out, but I am willing to bet that this phone won't see much. Yeah, we got the BL unlocked and root finally, but 5 months after the phone came out. You have a host of killer new phones coming out any day now, and so a lot of Devs won't see the need to spend a bunch of time on a phone that is already on the way out...

My fear is that it is too little too late, to get much Dev love, and I don't blame them.

---------- Post added at 03:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

I have a pretty decent PC that I can use to compile a ROM, but I am not a code monkey. hehe

But if there is a kitchen app that works on Win7 x64 that I can take the stock ROM and use the tool to modify it and add things and boost performance, I am all for that.

If someone wants to point me in the right direction, I will take a crack at it.
[HTC Droid DNA] Brennon19968:
I made a mistake by not thinking clearly.. I have a s-on DNA that has NOS 1.06. I made the mistake of not keeping two different pieces of software on my phones memory and flashed NOS. Currently I can not get passed my HTC ONE screen to put a ROM that works with my phone... Is there anyway I can fix this?
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Go onto recovery and use the adb sideload command to flash a rom.
[HTC Droid DNA] Brennon19968:
Alright. Now here's the really stupid question. How?
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
To get into recovery go into recovery(pwr+vol down), then depending on your recovery you need to find the sideload option(probably in advance or something similar), then just plug it into your computer and use the adb sideload rom.zip command to flash a rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ItsKarriD:
Well I'm on the latest CM nightly (CM 10.1 -20130312) and I just came from CM 10. I tried CM 10.1 before but I had little to no signal and I've decided to give the latest nightly a chance and well, I still have the same problems as before. I flashed the 3.18 radio on it and it literally made NO difference at all. I hate the AT&T variant of the phone. On the CM 10 version I didn't have this problem but there were times that I'd go half an hour to a full hour without getting any texts and then they'll all come in at once (and I know its no coincidence because some of those messages contain people wondering why I haven't replied yet). So can anyone help me with this problem please?? I really like CM 10.1 but not having any mobile data and an even worse signal is a REAL deal breaker for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Venomtester:
I was having the same issue until I went into settings and changed it to GSM/WCDMA.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
I used to be tech support for att. Obvious question: has this happen before? Now to put my xda hat on. Did you change APN settings? Is this the only rom you flashes? Also call att (611) and have them cancel registration. This basically kicks you off the network and bring you back on. Sim cards are not the issue as the are unable to determine signal strength. Hope you get it fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Venomtester:
I think it has something to do with the 3.18 radio. I never had problems until flashing it. I have tried multiple roms. Sense based and aosp. It happens on both although it seems to be worse on aosp. I went out of state and lost signal completely while running the latest Chameleon. I went into settings and as soon as I stopped it from searching for LTE it went to full signal. Maybe a tower upgrade issue? 3.18 radio issue? I guess it's something for devs to look into. I know not all towers are the same. 3.18 maybe conflicting with the area he is in. Somebody will get it figured out lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
That's just weird. I flashed 3.18, and still get the same coverage (4-5 bars, 6mbps data). I don't see how it can effect you. The device is dual HSPA+/LTE. So if the device cannot find LTE, it will always back (circuit switch fall back). Even when I went to an LTE area (Nashville, TN), it still work perfectly. Could be something up with the physical radio inside of the phone. The LTE towers are suppose to be backwards compatible, but we know how companies can be. If your device is working in one area, and not the other, then it is a tower issue. Even though AT&T may find that their towers are ok, it is a tower issue, and there is no doubt around that. Now if it just gives you random coverage, no matter where you are, then it is the phone itself.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChrisPBacon:
Having the same issue on CM. Just tried changing to WCDMA and my signal doubled. That is weird but thanks you guys.

According to Amazon,i should not use the white Anker universal charger on s3 batteries, is there a reason for this? So far i see no reason, but I do not want to take a risk, thanks!

note: I used to use this to charge my s2 Anker batteries
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnlson:
Probably because it charges very slowly compared to the correct s3 charger and it is designed for 3.7v rather than 3.8v. You may not think there is a difference but higher voltage leads to higher termination voltage which this charger will never reach.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentg1001:
So generally, it should be safe to use? It would just change slower?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
As long as the charger is designed for Li-ion battery and the correct mAh rating then yes it is safe, but you will never acheive a 100% charged battery for your phone.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] PinkySlayer:
Is it just me/my hardware or is GPS over Bluetooth absolutely rubbish!?

I tried a Holux GR-230 unit first but had the usual problems in getting it connected. When I finally did, I was apalled by it's performance, usually failing to get a gps lock at all.

So I ditched it in favour of a Rikaline GPS-6031-X7. It picked up far mor signals and usually obtained a lock almost instantly. However, it's accuracy is very disappointing. Positional accuracy - it's usually ok on a motorway or dual carriageway but at slower speeds, it jumps all over the place, forwards, backwards, in the middle of fields hundreds of yards away - and that's the worst time for it to happen 'cos it's when you slow down for a junction that you actually need it. The second issue is directional accuracy - it often shows me driving sideways as it's so sloooooow to update/recalc the direction.

If this was my first experience of gps, I might be able to forgive it without a benchmark to judge it against. But I've used Navman with an iPaq, a LAM1 unit with my Nokia 9210 and a (cheap) CF device with my Dell Axim and they all performed far, far better! I know that TomTom Navigator 2 isn't the problem as it performed flawlessly on my Axim (PXA255).

So what's going wrong? Is it the bluetooth devices, or the bluetooth technology, or the XDA II? Will O2's bluetooth update improve matters?

I can no longer rely on this and I'm going to have to start taking map backups - something I've never had to do before and really defeats the object.

Any thoughts, experiences, comments, answers?????

Ged.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] dts:
I think your problem could be the gps receiver.

I am using the Navman 4400 with my XDAII. It took some time and a couple of patches (from this site, thanks guys) to get it to bond via bluetooth, but now it's setup, it works great. It seems to be very accurate and tells me to exit roundabouts just at the correct time.

It's a bit slow to get the initial fix when first switched on (about 2 minutes) but once connected I have no problems.

Is the gps receiver positioned by a heated screen? If so, this will block the signal and produce the problems you describe.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] hshortt:
Have you changed your car? Some newer cars have reflective windshields that can cause problems.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] PinkySlayer:
Thanks guys. I know of both of the issues you describe but I drive a 3 year old clio 172 - no heated/reflective screen. The receiver usually sits on the dash and receives a very strong signal from upwards of 6 sats.

I've now emailed Rikaline too so we'll see what they come up with (if anything).
