[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egrocio:
I bought a used Color NOOK from a boy who lived in Rio de Janeiro, I'm in Manaus/Amazonas. The fisrt time I boot it appears a screen with 9 little balls that I assumed to be a password, asking the boy who sold me the Color NOOK what was this key he told me that he forgot it. Now I ask you: How can I open my Color NOOK without this password, I had tryed a lot of sequences but is almost impossible to "hit" the right one. Any hint or suggestion? Thanks a lot for any help.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azure Dragon:
Hmm.. if you are a total newbie regarding Android, well then you could ask technicians in your place what could be the probable solutions to your problem.

As I can see the only way is through email. Does it show "Forgot Pattern?" when you enter too many incorrect patterns? Tap on that, and ask the boy if he remembers the email's password.

Wait, is the device running Android 4.0+?

Yeah, just flash the stock rooted. You don't need to take the official update because you'll probably root out afterwards anyway.

You can also flash optionally flash the MD4 firmware (modem and such), it's also listed in freezas thread.

same problem

I had a same problem with 10.1.

Here is the solution:

first of all you need to boot in CWM and wipe all that is possible (cash, partition and dalvic cash),

then install your previous rom AND CM10 gapps !!! Because the boot loop is a result of missing right version of GAPPS for

Cm10.1 or Cm10 !!!

Then you just reboot system and you are ready.

That did work an my SGT P1000.

But I later tried one more time to install Cm10.1 Nightly ROM with right GAPPS for CM10.1 and it worked flawlessly.

I hope it helps !

I have a nice little ace phone and i'm having a lot of issues with my phonememory.. I had to delete more and more apps now I still have two.. :(

and there are still issues with that memory :(

- I would like to know how I can update my android version? I know there is no official update available for my phone..

- Is it safe to update my version? What are the risks?

- Where can I get the update? 4.0 .. 4.1 :confused:

I hope somebody can inform me? :fingers-crossed:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ams77:
My computer died in the middle of rom flash, which caused my T-Mobile SGS4 to nearly brick. I attempted several recoveries (CWM, TWRP, and OUDHS) and several custom & stock roms (including odin) before I was finally able to see some life in it. Because of this, the baseband is the official stock after the update (uvuamdl), and the build number is the official stock prior to the update (uvuamdb). I don't think this would normally be a problem, but now I am unable to flash a custom or stock rom so I think it may be the reason. The phone does not run very smooth, and a notification asking me to reboot because of errors keeps popping up. It is now rooted as well. Is there a way or method to bring everything back to stock?

Thanks,

You have to flash a kernel that supports write access to the system partition, or create a flashable zip to remove the systems apps, or.remove.them via adb.

The stock kernel doesnt support write access so any changes you make are reverted on reboot.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badshaaa:
Hi All,

I have a 6810. I was running a custom CM10.1 ROM from daniel_hk.

The battery would drain overnight (few days in a row) and I'd charge it the next morning.

Then one day, it wont go past the Samsung Logo boot screen. I cannot get into recovery. I can get into download mode and can flash whatever ROM from ODIN without any problems.

This is what I have tried:

1. drain the battery completely and tried recharging.

2. Flashed stock HC via ODIN

3. Flashed stock ICS via ODIN

4. Flashed just CWM via ODIN

5. Flashed stock HC + 6810 PIT

6. Flashed stock ICS + 6810 PIT

Still stuck on the Samsung boot screen (or a battery icon with G in the middle if connected to power). Cannot get into Recovery. Only Download mode working.

Anything else that I should try before giving up?

Thanks.

Apparently in Australia the warranty is 2 years. I was under the impression that it was only 1 year. They said that there was a change of policy with regards to warranty since 2011. Warranty has been 2 years for purchase since then. Didn't see that mentioned on their website. Oh well. Tab is back up and running.

Samsung picked it up from my house. Fixed it and couriered it back. Cant complain (given that I was running a non stock ROM).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dark_storm83:
I have an infuse with a power button issue, the power button was bad so I used a couple wires to jump the two opposite ads and wake or power on the phone. My problem is this is no longer working, one of the wires came loose and ripped off the pad with it but I was able to scrape the area to reveal the copper underneath and reattach the wire but now there is a continuous voltage when testing the two wires with a voltage meter and when they touch the voltage drops to zero but the phone is not starting up.

I do not have any information on how the power buttons are wired in this phone so I do not know if there is supposed to be voltage at rest or not and if this is the correct configuration then why will the phone not boot.

Hi

I just bought the Samsung smart multimedia dock. It works pretty well overall, except for the main thing I bought it for.

My intention was to play Super Nintendo emulators on the bus, then plug it into the dock, and continue on the big screen. With my favorites SNES emulator, Super Gnes, as soon as I plug it into the dock, it gets so choppy, that it's unplayable. As soon as I unplug it, it gets silky smooth again.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AaronEmoBoi:
okay so this may have been addressed but im going to tell my way of fixing the lag (it worked for me it might not for you)

So this is a complete shot in the dark but here we go:

So i have a Sprint Galaxy Nexus and I used to have the lag that everyone else is having

so i started to wonder what my phone was getting it from...

well i noticed if i used Odin to flash stock 4.2.2 the lag was gone but then instantaneously after I rooted the device again and installed busybox and a permarecovery mod (WugFresh toolkit's AIO setup) it started too lag again D:

So I was very confused and I remembered that my first Sprint Galaxy Nexus did not have this proplem but then I remembered it started off on 4.0.4 ICS and was updated through OTA to 4.2.2 before I rooted it using a linux based toolkit ( not wugfresh's kit)

so i proceeded to dig around and see what i could do

And i came up with this...

1. back up your stuff ( EVERYTHING!)

2. use the wugfresh toolkit to downgrade your nexus to the earliest or any ICS based firmware

3. do not use the wugfresh toolkit to root/busybox/permrecovery

4. Update through OTA to 4.2.x

5. if you locked your BootLoader Unlock it now!

6. while device is unrooted use MTP to bring over your ROM of choice to your internal storage

6. use a different toolkit to install a custom recovery....DO NOT ROOT/BUSYBOX/PERMRECOVERY THE STOCK ROM (if you want to run a stock based rom with root find a flashable zip after these steps

7. dont boot into a stock firmware as it will reset your recovery so from the bootloader after installing the custom recovery, Reboot into it then perform a NANDROID backup just in case

8. Install rom of choice! and there you go thats what i did and i have no more lag issues besides the normal stuff

Thank you hope this is helpful! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d0ge01:
Never had lag here, i think this lag is caused from apps installed instead android...

Done this phases 2 hours ago ( i update PA ), don't lag, how do you root your device? busybox installed from market ? recovery installed how?

i suggest use natural method

Flash factory image

Flash recovery ( use: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp... , instead using toolkit )

download SuperSu Universal installer zip from Chainfire's thread

Flash this zip

Install busybox installer from market and do normal install

Useless and stupid IMHO, no reason for "lag gone",

when you flash ROM or kernel, anything will wiped and formated, reflash again over and over is useless

One quick question - is there a reset pin for doing a soft reset in the stylus like the XDA 1? I tried unscrewing it but it seemed as if it wasn't meant to be unscrewed or very tight.

Thanks
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Mosser:
the hole for the reset is big enough for the tips of the stylus, the bit you use on the screen, so there's no need to take it apart!, i didnt even know it unscrewed !!

Thanks - didn't think of that! :oops:

Just getting used to the differences between 1 and 2. It is one of the things I have come to accept that when you need it most - ie to make an important call, the XDA 1 will let me down and requires a soft reset! So I was just a bit concerned in case the XDA 2 was the same and I had no means to reset it.

Hello,

I loaded the wrong version of TWRP on my TF300T. When it rebooted it loaded CM10.1 just fine. I then rebooted a second time in recovery mode and I have been stuck at the ASUS screen with the "device is unlocked" message. I am able to get into APX mode but my research has shown that mode doesn't do me any good if I haven't ran a nvflash backup. I am stuck and I would appreciate some advice or suggestions. I wonder what the factory reset fee would be from ASUS.

Thank you for your responses! :D
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macgyver40:
what version where you on? what version did you load that you think you shouldn't? Can you enter recovery mode? fastboot mode? I used fastboot to fix my recovery TWRP just can't find the thread I got my info from.

if your seeing the asus screen like you say I don't think it has anything to do with your recovery. I just went though fixing my mistake and breaking my install of TWRP 2.4.4 patched had to install 2.5 TWRP and when I restored my backup 2.4.4 was back and working again. anyway while the recovery was broken I could still run the stock rom that was installed at that time. I think if your on the asus screen your kernel has an issue.

I don't know where I read about issues like this but I know others have had em and recovered search or someone else should be able to point in a direction but have hope doesn't sound bricked yet.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racet:
Thanks for the speedy response =)

Version History: Stock 4.1 -> CM 10.1 Nightly 0503 or 0429. I had CWM on it before trying to load openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-ICS.blob using the terminal emulator method. I think I should have loaded the JB blob but the warning on the TWRP site said to use that if you ran the offical OTA update, which I never did so I stuck with the ICS. It installed fine, then rebooted into CM 10.1 just fine. I then rebooted from there into recovery and have been stuck at the ASUS screen since.

The Vol + - button keeps me in the ASUS screen. Reset button keeps me in the asus screen. Vol + + puts me in APX mode.

I try running fastboot in APX mode but it hangs stating "waiting for device" so I don't think it'll work in APX mode.

Thanks.

Power up your tablet while holding down the Vol- button, then wait until a menu appears on your tablet. Within 10 seconds, hit the Vol- button.

On your computer, run "fastboot devices". If it finds your tablet, then download the correct recovery (http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/tf300t/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-tf300t-JB.blob), copy it to your fastboot directory, then flash it using:
