to my knowlege fastboot is for htc devices and you need an unlocked bootloader to flash a recovery on and htc device. What device do you have?
[General Questions and Answers] tetakpatak:
Fastboot is for all devices with bootloader mode, so not only for HTC but also for Nexus, Motorola, Sony etc

[MENTION=5224060]syung[/MENTION] you didn't write which device do you use. It is usually not root, but unlocking the bootloader that wipes all data. If you have Samsung (you were writing of EFS in another post), international models by Samsung are unlocked by default and have no bootloader mode, just download mode.

I think you should switch to ur official firmware. Same thing happened with me on my Galaxy Ace Plus. So I flashed the official firmware via odin3 and then my SIM card started working.

I think so you should flash your official firmware. The same thing happened with me on my galaxy ace plus, but then I tried flashing my official firmware and guess what, my SIM card worked.

whyyy

But i like that rom i dont want to get back to stock ones
[General Questions and Answers] Harsh Mehta:
Yah I knw that Custom ROMS are far better than official ones. But once u flash your official firmware and check if your SIM Card working or not. If its not working than you should visit Sony Care as it might be your mobile's problem.
[General Questions and Answers] drakeNas:
yeah i just did network woking i think the problem is in roms but i tried a lot
[General Questions and Answers] Harsh Mehta:
Then you should ask any other person who is using the same ROM. Any user can help you with it. Or either ask a question in that thread about your problem. Maybe you can get your solution.
[General Questions and Answers] mayank9856:
There is a Solution with you...

This is probably coz your EFS partion has been corrupted.

Check weather you can see your IMEI number from your dialer. If then then it is 100% the cause and the fizx is easy.

Even if you can, whats there to try it , Right ? :p

Ok here you go..

Restore the nandroid backup of the Rom on which your network worked.

go to recovery > backup and restore > Custom backup > then backup your EFS partition and modem. Individually !

Clean flash the custom rom

then get into recovery and restore EFS and modem from custom restore.. AND VOILA...

Pair PS3 gamepad with android

Hi guys.I just bought a PS3 Bluetooth gamepad from the mall and on the way home I've thrown away the box thinking that I wouldn't need any of the instructions on it...:D Once I was home I realised that I'm not sure how I was supposed to connect it to my android tablet.Anyway,I think I figured that part...a big red button makes the lights blink fast.I think that's the part when the joystick is ready to pair.Problem is,it won't show on my android device's scan list.

The tablet is rooted,is there anything I can do to make it actually "see" the gamepad?

[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
it is not a good idea to dirty flash builds dated so far apart.

you can try if you wish, but if you have any issues at all, you will need to do a full wipe and verify the issues before reporting them.

dirty flash: wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system, flash new build and gapps if necessary, reboot.

[Q] ART ruined my apps Switched back to Dalvik now apps are still broken

Hi i am new this is my first post.

I have updated my chinese phone (rebranded here in our country) from JB to KK i heard about ART and the advantages so i tried switching to ART.

when my phone was still on JB viper4android works well, rom toolbox lite, worked fine until i upgraded to KK and switched to ART runtime now my apps wont work. i have a read post here in xda that many apps including Xposed Framework wont work with kk's ART runtime. Viper wont install driver even i hav busybox installed, romtoolbox goes FC. so I switched back to Dalvik but same thing happens apps go FC.

Please help i want to know if this apps are broken by ART runtime or broken by KK update.

another question. Does KK make my rom Deodexed? Thank you very much. sorry for my bad english

i tried to do factory reset in cwm recovery but still same problem arise.

p.s i have upgraded my phone via OTA. i brought back everything to stock before the OTA upgrade. so its a clean upgrade..
[General Questions and Answers] justmpm:
For the busted apps, go into System->Apps->Select misbehaving app-> Clear data

Try to restart the app and see if it still FCs. If it is still FCing then completely uninstall and reinstall the app. Don't use something like Titanium Back up to restore the app.

Factory ROMs are almost always odexed. Custom ROMs are usually deodexed. The android version doesn't really matter so much.

[General Questions and Answers] Megaflop666:
Sounds like something got messed up with your apps installs when you were switching things around. Clear app cache/data and try the app again. Switching to ART can cause issues with some apps, I've dealt with it. I'm not aware of a full list of apps out there yet, but I know for certain ART and xposed don't play nice. A lot of the other stuff is trial and error. If you have a fresh clean install on your device, clear your dalvik and cache and do the ART switch. Then introduce fresh installs of the apps you want to install. If you can't run apps you want using android runtime, go back to dalvik. ART has advantages, but it's still in beta stages and is not fully supported, so you're going to run into issues. I saw definite advantage's to ART when I played with it but I'm not willing to give up xposed framework, so....

[Q] How do I get the Location via mobile internet working with no Google Apps?

Hey

I am very interested in the NOGAPPS project, introduced in this forum. I have a Fairphone and so far no problems using no Google Apps at all besides the location service. I did install and move the NetworkLocation.apk and downloaded and moved the cells.db database in the right folder as MaR-V-iN writes in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1715375

Since I did this the location is found by (for example) Firefox but only when I'm connected to wifi and not when I'm connected to some 3G network.

Does anybody know how I could fix this, so that I can also locate my phone when I'm not connected to a wifi?

cheers and thx

If you don't know what you're doing, pretty good chance. If you're writing your first ROM, I wouldn't do it with my daily device. I'm in the process of trying to write my first ROM and I'm doing it for an old s4, so if I do something wrong I'll just get pi**ed and not stress about my main device.

Noobie Flash Procedure S5 Active

Hi XDA peeps. Born-again Newbie here. I flashed a ROM onto my T-Mobile HTC Wing years ago. I'm back now with an AT&T S5 Active, but this time I'm so lost with the ROM flashing procedure for these new phones.

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Here are my questions: (procedure copied over from: http://xdaforums.com/att-galaxy-s5/development/rom-koolkit-s5-koolactive-v1-0-0b01-07-t2809957 )

FLASH INSTRUCTIONS

1. Copy the download to your external sdcard (if you have one) (I get this part)

2. DO A BACKUP FIRST, 3. DO A BACKUP FIRST (if unsure see step 2) (So to even get here, my understanding is I need to already have a custom boot recovery installed? To install something like "clockworkmod or Bootstrap", you first need to root the phone? To root the phone, you need to use something like "towelroot"? So to summarize, root phone with towelroot, and then install bootstrap custom recovery, and then backup?

4. Reboot to SS Recovery (I get this)

5. Wipe data/Factory reset (important)(in the latest release there's a note to not wipe, and try out a user-level backup, so I would try it without wiping first)

6. Flash to "Stock Rom" Slot (DO NOT USE ROM SLOTS YET)(This recovery option, or flash from external SD card, would be available once I have bootstrap?

7. Reboot your device and complete the initial setup(i would hope to get this far)

Do I need to know about or install ADB or busybox or fastboot? The requirements send my mind into an infinite loop. But I'm trying...

I hope I can figure this out. I just thought I could have figured it all out on my own like before. I've had an S3 for 2 years, and I was reading up on how to flash a ROM on it, but on several occasions decided to not go forward with it because of being overwhelmed at the procedures. The Galaxy S5 sub forum is obviously still new, and doesn't have as many tutorials as other subforums. I'm sure eventually it will get there, but for now, I have tried looking up tutorials for flashing, but I feel they are either too simple/general, or too advanced.

Thanks in advance!

[MENTION=1096411]Aristo 161[/MENTION] it would be better to post this question in some of the S5 help threads, or to begin a new thread in "Help & Troubleshooting" for S5

The problem is, that Sammy now loves Knox- and that some devices for US carriers have locked bootloaders.

If so, any flashing attempt could result in bricking the device. Go to that device's forums, mate.

tetakpatalked from N7100
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
i would defiantly follow [MENTION=5051515]tetakpatak[/MENTION]'s advice, but i will throw a couple comments out there anyways.

first, i dont have this device, so just take what im saying as suggestions and look into it.

im pretty sure you wont have a recovery like cwm, that pretty much defeats the purpose of safe strap. you use one or the other depending on what is possible. im betting its not possible to put on cwm, thats why there is safe strap.

after rooting, you will need to download the ss app, open it, and install ss recovery. then every time you reboot the phone, a ss screen will come up where you can choose to go into ss recovery or boot normally. there are no tricks to getting into it like the normal recovery (custom or otherwise).

i havent used ss since my Bionic so i could be wrong, but i dont think you need busybox. you defiantly dont need adb or fastboot.

hope that helps clear some of the confusion.

---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:56 PM ----------

before you do any modding, you want to make a backup, and/or ensure the stock file is available (i would dl it just to be sure), so if anything goes wrong, you already have a plan in place to fix it. modding frequently breaks things, its better to be prepared than stressed.

anyways, xposed has many modules that can change the appearance and functionality of your device. "gravity box" is pretty popular module from what i have read. i have never used it, so i cant say exactly what it does.

[General Questions and Answers] MaR-V-iN:
Either you just had bad luck or the cells.db file you use is not compatible with your carrier. There are three possible reasons for that: 1. It's out of date, 2. The data is incomplete and not available in your area 3. There is no open data available for your carrier. You can check the latter two by first identifying your networks MCC and MNC using an app (eg. SatStat is one that shows this data in it's third tab) and secondly looking it up on http://opencellid.org/ (enter mcc and mnc on the left and check your region using map). If the map shows data than you need to update your cell location database, see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49783851&postcount=519

Good Luck

Note 1: Even if your carrier has data in your region it's not sure that your currently connected cell is in the database.

Note 2: If data is bad in your region, consider contributing to OpenCellId: http://wiki.opencellid.org/wiki/How_to_contribute

Note 3: If you mention a user with @ like [MENTION=5848286]ShadeChar[/MENTION], he or she is notified and thus can answer directly. Luckily another user linked me to your post else I would not have seen it
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
it would be unusual for the setting to not be compatible with cm, i havent heard of it anyways.

i would try re-flashing the rom. before doing a full wipe, i would try wiping cache's and system only, then re-flash the rom + gapps.

if that doesnt help, i would go for a full wipe.

unfortunately, if it wont turn on in any mode, recovery, fastboot, etc, no lights, nothing, it is toast.

[General Questions and Answers] Megaflop666:
[MENTION=4132606]bweN diorD[/MENTION] put the best advice out there, backup, backup, and then backup again. Xposed framework is a good starting point, you can get some easy to use apps like Gravity Box or Wanam. Both allow you to make changes to the UI and some mods to the system. To use Gravity or Wanam you need to install xposed framework. All three of these items can be found here on XDA by searching. There is a plethora of knowledge here to do almost any change you can think of. But the biggest things are backup, read, read again, and if you're unsure, seek advice.
