[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrous19:
My first post so be gentle ...

I recently let a colleague at work use my phone as a guinea pig for Exchange active sync which in turn enabled encryption on my device. In my haste to regain control of my phone and not be bound by the active sync policies he had imposed, I went straight to ClockworkMod and formatted all partitions on the device.

I then ADB Pushed an AOSP Rom to my phone and installed via ClockworkMod and have been using it encryption free for many months now and thought I had seen the last on the encryption .... Until yesterday when I fancied a change and wanted to try a Samsung based rom.

It seems that any Samsung based roms wont boot due to them needing a pin to which I have no idea of what it could be. Having formatted what I thought was pretty much all partitions of the phone and still finding signs of encryption leads me to think I'm missing something ... Bootloader maybe? ...

So I think my questions are ... Has anyone seen this before and how did they fix it. & Any one know where I could acquire an official bootloader and flashing instructions?

Thanks

Graham
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrous19:
Fixed .....

Ok... So after a lot of flashing ... obviously not in public parks! The problem is solved and below is my fix

1. Flashed the full rom from the below link. I chose the ODIN Copy

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2077844

2. After the full flash I still had the problem that even official stock ROM was prompting for the encryption pin. So I rebooted into the official Android recovery and did a factory reset and wiped cache. After doing the factory reset using the official recovery, the PIN Appeared to be removed :D

3. Then I downloaded the Odin version of Clockworkmod from the link below and flashed via ODIN

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1719744

4. ADB Pushed the Samsung custom Rom through Clockworkmod and flashed.

Problem Solved :D

Encryption is a nightmare!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Thanks for posting back your findings. I wish everyone did this.

I think the stock recovery does a full format of /data including /data/media (internal sdcard), whereas CWM etc actually use a recursive delete of files (linux command rm -rf) which leaves /data/media in tact (so a factory reset doesn't wipe out all your pictures and backups etc)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitrous19:
Possibly the cause .... I think either way the official recovery deleted something that CWM didn't.

This forum has helped me out loads so it's nice to be able to contribute back.

Hi,

I'm trying to unlock bootloader on my GNex but unfortunately, when i reboot it in fastmode (through adb reboot-bootloader or pressing VOL- , VOL+ and POWER), the device do nothing: It shows an android with "the chest open", in the top of the it shows "START" but any button works and when i try fastboot devices command, i have no response. i try to see if there is any device connected through lsusb, but the device doesn't appears.

It seems to be stuck and the only way to reboot in normal mode is removing the battery.

Anyone could help me?

Thanks,

xekin

More info about:

This is what is shown in fastboot mode:

FASTBOOT MODE

PRODUCT NAME - tuna

VARIANT - maguro

HW VERSION - 9

BOOTLOADER VERSION - PRIMEKK15

BASEBAND VERSION - I9250XXLJ1

CARRIER INFO - NONE

SERIAL NUMBER - 1234123414341

SIGNING - production

LOCK STATE - LOCKED

How can i re-install or re-flash "fastboot mode"? I tried flashing OMAP4440 but nothing happened. I've tried to access to fastboot from win7, win8 and ubuntu. In all of them adb works correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
It seems that your bootloader is fine. Reinstall driver and fastboot file, and do the right unlock command.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Read closer. OP isn't using Windows. lsusb is a Linux command - plus he stated he already tried under Windows and it worked. Under Windows, it seems OP hasn't told device manager what driver the device should use, WHEN connected in fastboot mode.

OP, search ' android udev rules' then follow instructions. And maybe you're not seeing the device under lsusb because you're not allowed to (yet). In the meantime, you can use 'sudo lsusb' to escalate permissions.

Then, install android SDK and/or update your existing versions.

Still, it's not clear, OP, do your hardware keys work? I mean, can you press up or down, and see the other options like Recovery etc?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xekin:
Thanks for your responses

Actually, I did it lot of times, different drivers version (google, samsung) in diferent OS, but always the same result. In linux I checked that the properly udev config file is set:

cat /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

One for google and the other for samsung,

In bootloader, any button works, It is a bit annoying because, I watched a lot of youtube videos in which the START message changes when UP/DOWN buttons are pushed. (To recovery for example)

Now, after tested with adt included adb/fastboot commands, I'm testing with the command included in ubuntu platform (wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install). But it doesn't work neither

I followed also some tutos about odin (one of them was yours), but it neither recognizes my gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xekin:
anyone has this problem? i mean if there is someone who has a gnex which doesn't response when he pushes up,down buttons?it looks like frozen, and the usb doesn't seem to work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Is your user in group "plugdev"? 'gpasswd -a <user> <group>' as root

Run fastboot with root privileges enabled
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xekin:
Thanks

yep, it doesn't work with my user or root. this is what i see with a dmesg when fastboot mode:

Any idea?

are you connecting the device to a USB HUB? More devices connected to the PC?

did u change your bootloader version?

should be PRIMELC03 from stock.. KK15 was the old version. that why u got this issues. just back to stock version (newest).

try boot to odin bootloader (long press volume down + power button). if your phone can boot to odin then install the odin toolkit (pc)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
So am running classic stability test 2.7, and I've ran this before and my CPU get to 60°C or after like 15 minutes, I ran it today out of sheer curiosity and it started to show 91°C. Am using cm with there kernel since I recently flashed the latest nightly and thought how would it differ from matrixes. Another thing it can be that the values are being incorrectly displayed. Is this something I should worry about? Am really not in the mood for an RMA and losing my phone. Shouldnt of the system shut itself down after a certain limit as a fail safe?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Are you sure it is Celsius and not Fahrenheit? Is about 33 degrees Celsius. At 91 degrees it would have shut down and rebooted a long time before reaching that temperature.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
Trickster mod says its °C so?

edit: the device itself gets very very hot which am sure if it was running at 30 it would be fairly cool would it not?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
- touch the back, if it's 91C your fingers will know.

- RMA because you run a heavy benchmark test (I never do, no opinion on that) and it -logically- heated up..?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
it was very hot I had to put it down so am guessing its 90C, but now its a lot better, it seems it wasn't throttling proper? it attempted to run the entire thing at 1.5ghz constantly, rather than it's usually clocking down to 1.1ghz. Now it's throttling and while its at 78C, it just feels warm and it actually being managed.

I flashed back to matrix's kernel and prefed to use the scaling test which would probably be closer to real life usage and its running 45C. I really like CM and don't want to flash back to stock but I may end up doing it

90c will probobly burn your skin.

it was mistake.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScumDroid:
Must be a mistake. 91 degrees Celsius is almost 200 Degrees Fahrenheit, that would melt the plastic on the phone, and burn your fingers. :eek:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
not true. ive forced mine to hit 100C. its the cpu temp, not the temp of the outside of your phone. ive even hit 110C with my galaxy nexus. it doesnt stay at those temps long enough to melt your phone, lol.

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

stability tests are meant to push your cpu to its limits. pushing the cpu to its limits will create lots of heat. it is meant to do that. if youre using stability tests, you can not complain about heat. its like putting your car in neutral then flooring the gas pedal, itll cause your engine to get hot, especially if you do it for 15 minutes.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScumDroid:
ahh k my bad, I didnt realize it was internal temp. Thats crazy you hit 110 c the most ive ever seen mine hit is 40 c :eek:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
safety cpu shutdown for the gnex is 110C. as soon as i saw it hit 110C, it shut down. but you really have to try to get it to that point by stressing it awfully hard. same with the nexus 4, 100C is the safety shutdown. running certain benchmarks or stress tests are the only ways to get it that hot. which is why it makes no sense that someone running a stress test for 15 minutes is complaining about heat, asking if he should rma his device.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
I think you are referring to battery temp and not CPU temp. Unless you live somewhere very cold it would be quite difficult for your CPU not to go over 40c
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScumDroid:
Canada its fkin freezing!! :) just checked set cpu and its 23 c, but im just scrolling through twitter, not really doing anything else.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
The points that I would be concerned with temps are

Battery > 50°C

CPU > 80°C

This is based on stock thermal throttle at 60°C CPU

On Franco kernel I have upped my throttle limit to 70°C so I wouldn't be concerned unless it went above 85.

You will know if your battery is at a dangerous temperature because it will be very uncomfortable to hold

I just played some beach buggy blitz for 10 mins.

CPU jumped up 20° from idle up to 50° but again well within my tolerance
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexuzx:
My nexus 4 cpu temperature stays at 40°C or more and reaches 60°C when playing GTA for instance. Should i be worried? BTW im running faux kernel with intellidemand and eco mode
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
no.

for the record am not asking if I can RMA, am happy with my device and really don't need to lose it for a week. But this just started happening more frequently. Sometimes the thermald ****s up and it doesn't throttle at all, at times I could be just playing GTA, Worms, Plague etc I usually don't notice because the phones down on the table, pick it up and owwwww flashing back to matrix solved the majority of it tbh. Right now it's sitting on 31C idle, it'll be about 40-50C on chrome funnily enough, and then 60ishC on games, pushing 70 depending how long I leave it on. I see that as fairly normal tbh, but 90C? I wouldn't even trust my fan cooled i5 to go there.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
And am back were I started just playing 2 minutes of batman and its at 70°C and burning my hand
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airjyp:
wow 91° ?? its dangerous maybe your device will " BOOM" sometimes :0

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
cool.

but yea, its possible to reach those high temps if, and only if, pushing your cpu. itll get warmer faster if your gpu is overclocked(is gpu overclocked in franco kernel?). now, if doing nothing and the phone gets that hot, thats a problem(software or hardware).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
nah its not overclocked, atm its cooled down, although it does take a while to drop from a high temp to something low even on idle.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
usually itll drop the temp much faster with the screen off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m4r0v3r:
Also ever since using the new gamma values if I turn my brightness to full the screen heats up. I may just go back to stock Lol

Hello, I've searched the forums and cant find anything specific on this so here goes:

I have a HTC ONE which I bought from three network in the UK. It is S-ON (CID is H3G_001) and I have unlocked the bootloader. I would like to install the latest Android revolution HD but I haven't been able to find the correct firmware which they recommend to flash after installing a new ROM. I know people have flashed this ROM already but I don't know the following:

-If your phone is locked to a network, does it affect any part of the (unlock bootloader, root, install rom process )?

- Has anyone installed this ROM on a HTC ONE M7 device with S-ON without flashing firmware.zip ?

Hope someone can help

[Networking] dhoopes:
OK, i'm cheap, but i don't have the $20 a month it costs to get the GPRS connection and just want to use a slow old CSD every once in a while. i've tried to connect to ATT Global a million times and it continues to tell me that:

"There is no modem at this number." (or soemthing to that effect)

or sometimes it says

"You username or password is wrong.." (when I know it IS correct)

Do i need to change the v.32 to v.34 or something else?

Do I select "Cellular Line" under "Select a Modem"?

What does transparent or non-transparent mean and does it matter for a regular old CSD dialup connection?

Basically, ATT Global won't support the Pocket PC for connections and T-mobile won't support CSD connections. They say, "Do you have a dial tone?...Yes... Ok, that's all we can do for you."

One last thing that may just be a ATT Global issue is that every time after i get the message that i can't connect, I go back to my settings and my user name is fine, but my password is twice as long as it should be. it is 16 characters when it should just be 8. i reset it to correct it, but then it goes back to the long row of 16 ****'s again every time.

I haven't been able to find info on how to set this thing up for CSD connections as a dialup modem on the internet anywhere. Maybe it's because it is so dang easy. However, I haven't been able to connect and I've tried every possible combination of settings and dialing preferences I can think of. Someone who uses CSD and a regular ISP, please help!
[Networking] Rabia:
in my country theirs 2 types of CSD the presubscription dial up which has a number & a username & pswd in wich all the setting remains default & you use a the modem Cellular line or the public dialup for non subscribedt where you dial a number but no password is needed at all but i also select the cellular line as a modem.
[Networking] Peter Poelman:
I have used CSD extensively. You seem to be doing everything right. To test, set the CSD line-type to V32 and make a call to an anlogue landline. You should hear a modem calling you. Then set it to V.110 and call a differnet brand of GSM, such as a Nokia r a Siemens. It should say 'Incoming data call' or something like it. If these work you at least know your GSM provider is giving you the real thing.

I have no clue what's up though. Good luck...
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
it is rare that I ever ask for help around these parts. But I just recently got my droid x2 back and wanted to try cm10 alpha 3. The problem is it doesn't seem to want to root. I have SBF'd numerous times and tried both Motorola one click root tool and Pete's Motorola root tool (which actually has worked every time when I used the DX2 as my daily driver with no problems). No matter how many times I run the programs, it seems to stay stock, unrooted gingerbread. Now remember, I have been around these forums for a long time and know what I'm doing. The only difference is that the phone has no number attached to it. Meaning its a WiFi only device. I have tried to bypass the activation which was successful. But I have not been able to root it and install the bootstrap recovery. It just goes through the process and stays the same. I have USB debugging on and checked the unknown sources box. It's been a while since I've done this so I may be missing something. All these tools are the same ones that I've always used with no problems. The only difference is that its a WiFi only device now. So is there any reason why the normal process wouldn't work now?

[Motorola Droid X2] sd_shadow:
you check windows device manager, for missing drivers?
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Just to double check, after an SBF, you get the activation screen. To bypass that, you have to turn off the phone, hold volume down and power then select "boot android (no bp)"? Thats what I'm doing and I'm just wondering if thats what is causing the phone to not be able to root. Thats the only difference there is from when I had this phone as a daily driver.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I'll double check the next time I do it. But I have attempted this on two different computers. Both of which I have successfully rooted on in the past.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Finally got it rooted and cm flashed on it. Don't know how. Just kept trying until it took. Lol

Yep with a ruu you lose everything, but on the otherhand it will be 100% stock. You can make backups with titanium backup or carbon .....

Edit : with a nandroid backup you will also loose everything because you must make a full wipe before restoring a nandroid backup.

I guess it happens because you are rooted. Use voodoo rootkeeper from the Play Store.

Nope root is not the issue, you can actually update a rooted phone as long as its stock and didn't touch the system.
