Be sure to download the proper ROM for your exact model, copy the zip over to the root of your SD, then navigate to the "install zip from SD card" option in cwm. Select your ROM file and it should install just fine. The dalvik wipe would be under the advanced tab.
[General Questions and Answers] Prateekrulzz:
Can u specify what is Root of SD

Also in CWM recovery there no advanced tap available. So am unaple to wipe dalvik cache.
[General Questions and Answers] cresch07:
If you already have CWM, I'm assuming you installed it yourself? Maybe see if you can use Philz Touch? It has many more options including a "Clean to install new ROM" option.

See this thread. Some have proceeded without wiping delvik and had no problems but it is better to do a wipe. You can use adb commands to clear these files and the device will create a new file set upon reboot. The CWM may not be the correct version for your device. Have you attempted using an alternative Recovery to check if advanced options show up.

Im a noob with some experience in needing troubleshooting little issues like this.

Sometimes a couple good google searches will find you a good enough rabbit hole to climb into and dig out a solution.

I got a recovery.img file and used Mobileuncle toolbox to get into the recovery mode.

I wiped factory reset, wipe cache and installed the zip file from external SD card. But i dint have the advanced option so couldnt wipe dalvik cache. And on rebooting found that the mobile is now running as stock

Okh let me check out philz touch.

Tried it. First deleted the cache dalvik file from root explorer then did everything in the recovery mode and rebooted. The same results. :crying:
[General Questions and Answers] Slim_Crazy:
Your device should have created a new cache. ---an empty one cause nothing has been done to the device.

I have used CWM before with no issues. Not understanding why advance options woyldnt show. Do you have the most recent version and is your phone unlocked? The only other th8ng i can think of is your provider still has a system file preventing you from being overly creative with their phone. Ive read about these new devices where providers are a little more tricky. The last time i flash new roms i havld to completely "un-T-Mobile" my phone. "True root", unlock, SIM unlock, bootloader unlock, new CMR, bricked, then cyanogen, no gapps, sideloaded all my *.apk's

When you restart in bootloader your phone should have some type of text stating your unlocked and sim unlocked. Then install CWM. Unless you've already done this....

Something like: "locked=NO" or " SIM UNLOCK= YES"

[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
This all has absolutely nothing to do with wiping dalvik. If it's running stock, then you flashed a stock ROM, or if you were stock and flashing a custom ROM, the flash didn't work. When you do a factory reset, it wipes the data, cache, and dalvik cache partitions. There's no need to wipe them again.

EDIT: Wait a minute..... Are you saying you are trying to flash the recovery.img file in recovery? You can't do that. You have to flash it in fastboot with ADB. Or you can install an app like ROM Toolbox that will flash a recovery for you.

Hello

I bought onda v972 tablet last year and it was working fine but last month it suddenly turned off and is not turning on again I've tried charging it with different chargers and even with USB, but it's not working can you please help me with this problem? Whenever I press the home button nothing happens its just the turned off screen that I see. Please I need help for this.. :crying: :crying: Thanks a lot in advance
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It sounds to me like you still have stock recovery, you didn't do something right during your install of CWM. Try again, all custom recoveries have wipe dalvik, if your recovery has the install update option instead of install zip then its still on stock and not custom, what method does your device use to flash CWM?

Problem rebooting a tablet

Hi, i got a tablet "Stylostech" wich has no volume buttons, and i need help unlocking it, since its locked by secuence, i have been able to go into "recovery mode" with the android logo face down and the lid open, by pressing the reset button and power button altogether from the device shut down, but after that when i release the buttons can't do anything else because if i press reset button or power button, the device immediately shuts down again, does anyone can help me with any ideas or knows what would be the right combination to enter the wipe data menu for a device such as this, thanks in advance, and pardon my bad english.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You can either buy an accessory that will charge your battery to full then try booting to recovery if you have one or whatever other boot modes your device has to see if you can recover your device (this is worst case scenario that is relatively easy to fix yourself). There is also the possibility that your power button or internal switch could be sticking causing the battery to not charge, press it and let completely go real quick repeatedly to see if it will free up and respond, you may even could try sliding your finger back and forth real fast across the power button so that it gets a chance to snap back as your finger goes across and then off in a quick manner, Then there is also the possibility that your battery is just no good and needs to be replaced.

If none of these are the case and neither of these things fixes your issue then you've got a bad charger port on the device or absolutely worst case your board is no good, did the device get wet or too hot or dropped pretty hard?

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

Try letting go of just one of the buttons instead of both of them, when it boots to your recovery keep holding one of the buttons and let go of the other and press it to see what happens, if one doesnt work then boot to recovery and try the opposite combination.

Hello, I have installed Dungeon hunter4 1.9.0i on my xperia play r800i. and there, i have a problem. First gameplay works fine, but after i reopen it it lags or hangs (no forse close). I tryed allmost everything: -lowered game graphics, or installed it on phone memory or the sd card, -tryed to play on rooted device and not rooted. Please help

android version 2.3.4 rooted woth oneclickroot, no cwm
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You say it runs fine the first time you play but the next time you reopen it that it lags and glitches. Does this mean the first time you open it after installing it that it runs fine but any other time after that it doesn't, or does this mean that you open it and play it and it runs fine then in the midst of playing you switch back and forth through different apps then come back to it to keep playing and then its lagging? If it is after multitasking then coming back to continue to play that it does then its because something else that you had open is still running in the background, when you are playing and you switch to other apps make sure these other apps are completely closed and not running before you go back to your game. Stop any activities that aren't needed. Since you are rooted then you might consider going through with installing custom recovery and custom ROM, you might find a ROM or a kernel to overclock your device and various other performance enhancements, this may make your device more capable of handling multiple processes. Keep as much RAM clear as possible, there are cleaners and task managers that can help you keep RAM clear but if you use a task killer function be careful what tasks you kill, it won't harm your device but killers kill tasks that are supposed to always run, when this is done then it puts more demand on your device because it has to restart these required processes which drains your battery, your RAM, and can even interrupt functions and require you to restart your device so that these functions can restart.

I've posted this elsewhere but might as well cross-post in hope of getting some response...

This is not my problem, I'm posting for someone else.

Device: Moto G

OS: 4.4.x

App: Hangouts

Rooted: No

So basically this is a less than week old phone. I contact this person via Hangouts and SMS regularly so the merged threads are great for that. The problem is that now, for whatever reason, the Hangout messages do not appear in the thread. The user still receives notifications of the Hangout messages but when tapped they take her to the thread of SMS messages only.

Have tried unmerging, remerging, clearing data/cache. No luck whatsoever.

Unmerging did allow both the Hangouts and SMS threads to be viewed independently but that's not very useful...

Have also rebooted etc...

Anyone know what could cause this bug and how to solve it? Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you got that error after trying to flash your update then its because the ROMs have differing data, any time you switch ROMs, whether custom ROM or manufacturers update, a factory reset and wipe are required because the old ROM has data stored that the new ROM doesn't recognize and the device gets confused and gives you an error. Do your factory reset before trying to install your update, flash the update then factory reset and wipe cache and you should be good.

HP Touchpad CM11 4.4.2: Mouse and Keyboard Issue cant use both at same time

Yesterday I wiped my Touchpad with TPtoolbox, installed CM11 4.4.2 with standard gapps and philz recovery. Everything was working great and going smooth until I tried to use a USB Logitech G11 keyboard and a wireless G700 mouse with the dongle attached to the keyboard. The touchpad will recognize the first device installed to the OTG cable but nothing else I plug into it unless the first device is removed. Let me give some examples of things I have tried.

****OTG Y cable (1 male Micro USB, 1 Female Micro USB power input, 1 Female USB) powered by PC or AC Power supply***

-TP>OTG>Keyboard>Mouse dongle = Keyboard input only

-TP>OTG>Non powered USB hub>Keyboard + Mouse = input based on first device plugged in, if both are plugged in when I plug in the hub, they keyboard always loads first but the mouse does work when keyboard is removed.

-TP>OTG>Non powered USB hub> Keyboard + wireless mini keyboard/mouse combo (Rii i8) + USB flash drive = Everything works, I can type with both the USB keyboard and the mini keyboard with functional mini mouse pad as well as access USB storage. However, when I add any type of dedicated mouse, be it my G700 or wired usb G500, neither work unless I remove the other two input devices.

TBC....

HP Touchpad CM11 4.4.2: Mouse and Keyboard Issue cant use both at same time Cont...

Continued...

Notes: The OTG cable itself works fine using several devices, whether it be flash drives, external hdd, keyboards including a Rii i8 wireless keyboard/mouse combo (touch pad feature works as a mouse with the keyboard, probably because its considered one device.) but I cannot get it to work with a dedicated mouse in conjunction with a keyboard. If I remove the keyboard, again the mouse works fine on its own. If I have the mouse plugged in first, the mouse will work fine but the keyboard will not.

Additionally, I tried to get my USB Xbox 360 controller to be recognized as well on its own but that is not working. I have ensured the correct files are present but it blinks once and then goes off so that's another issue I am trying to solve.

Some of you might be asking, why use a dedicated mouse if I can get the mouse pad on my mini keyboard to work? Gaming

Does anyone have any ideas or a solution? Its driving me insane and I really want it to work with what I have. I even tried making a DIY OTG cable, same results haha.

Thanks again, cheers!

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Why can't you just use a Bluetooth wireless keyboard paired separately and your mouse the by itself since it works without your keyboard, instead of trying to use two devices through one dedicated connection, if the two accessories are a bundled combo then it should work, if they are standalone devices then they there is probably a clash because your device cant differentiate between the inputs of two separate devices through one input. I've never used devices like you are using but it seems to me that if they aren't a combo set then they "speak" different languages. Its might not be any help to you, just throwing that out there.
[General Questions and Answers] pahlbrandt:
I figured that would be suggested and thought of it but I want to do this with the hardware I have now, not wanting to buy anything new, plus I love my keyboard. I know this combination works on other devices which includes my wifes Galaxy s4, my current Galaxy s5, older Galaxy s3, and a cheap POS tablet I got from tiger direct in a package deal a while back (Envizien or some crap, it really is slow haha but perfect for web and youtube). I figured if this same setup works on all these devices, why not my Touchpad... and here I am lol.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Edit: Both mouse and keyboard are HID devices so it shouldn't be a problem. I know it has something to do with the touchpad itself, be it a settings and software hack, or I simply need to try a few different roms. I know the touchpad is capable of it, I have seen videos of it being done with what I have. That is what leads me to believe it may be ROM/kernel related.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You are probably right. Some ROMs just arent configured for it, some ROMs on galaxy devices won't let you use galaxy gear for some reason. Why it works on your other devices but not this one is a good question. Is there a device that your two peripherals can be connected to that will act as a go between, like a hub or something? Something that can work the inputs separately instead of in unison?

Nevermind, I see that you tried a hub already. Try looking to see if there is an app available that acts as a go between(this would be simpler so you can keep the ROM you are running and no other hardware will be needed , if its a ROM issue because the ROM isn't built for it then there may be an app that patches this or even a kernel you can flash, or maybe the device you are trying to connect them to just isn't built for it? Idk.

Hi this is my first time posting or at least in a very long time. I did have an account which I don't remember ever creating.

My friend put the bad boyz rom on it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2470693 and everything has been great since I got in in July.

The order also changed. I hit the icon in the upper right and change the order but they don't actually move or turn off. So what you see in the bar does not match the settings. The icons themselves work but I can't scroll left or right. I use Nova Launcher. I have tried changing the launcher back, rebooting, shutting down and of course searched every setting I can think of.
