[HTC One X] primus123:
Hey guys, I was having trouble with my phone, I used the utility offered by HTC to restore phone back to factory settings, it ran, completed, then the phone shut off and now its seems to be done. I cant find anything to get it back on.

Any ideas?

Sent from my "BIG" awesome SGN2
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
What utility? You mean factory reset from bootloader?? or RUU??

Hold the power button till it bootsup... Can you access bootloader? Press Power button + Volume down key together till the bootloader shows up...
[HTC One X] primus123:
The ROM update utility from HTC site. Supposed to flash stock r9m back on phone, the status bar went to complete, said your phone is ready to use, powered off and wont come back on.

Won't power on, wont charge, can't get into bootloader.

[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Well put it on a wall charger for 5-6 hours and then trying boot it up... if there's still no response, then I'm afraid you will have to send it to HTC..
[HTC One X] primus123:
I had it on all night, guess im sending off, highly doubt they will repair it, the utility had a user agreement that had to be checked.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kurdish11:
Some douche sold me a phone then reported it stolen the next day... idiots....

I called AT&T and begged them to unblock it but to no success.. so now im contacting the idiot who did it.

But anyways, does anyone know if its possible to do anything as far as this?

Or immitate or switch IMEI numbers?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] getbuzzin:
Is that's the phone with the broken bezel you got for $300? Dude that really sucks. Not sure what can be done but good luck.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] polish_pat:
there are ways of "faking" an IMEI but they are all illegal, and i doubt forum admins would allow posts about this here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Slade8525:
sounds like you are screwed dude; you have no proof you paid him, and probably no way of getting the $$$ back. try to sell it for parts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] polish_pat:
Google search : change imei samsung

thats the best i can offer to follow XDA rules

good luck. I would call the police and report this, this is FRAUD. Also make sure you have some proof, a listing or other proof that he was selling this. The police wont do much, but i would call him while recording the call and make sure at the end of the call when he admits to everything, he knows hes recorded and use that as leverage to get him to call ATT and have the phone unblocked
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
He probably sold you a stolen phone. Did he show you a receipt from when he bought it originally? Or maybe someone else reported it stolen to piss him off and now it is your problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kurdish11:
He told me he would call AT&T and get it unblocked. I have all the text messages, I have the original listing saved.. and now he disconnected his phone. . It was definetly his phone, he had the original packaging and all so I know for sure it wasnt stolen...... what a bummer, I dont like getting involved with the police.. itd be a waste of time.. im considering finding him and beating the heck out of him........
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] polish_pat:
if you know where he lives, i would consider a "friendly" visit with big boned friends to get things straightened out on the spot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jacob.alberty:
He probably reported it stolen so he could get a new phone from at&t by doing an insurance claim. Likely he has a police report too (it's required for a stolen insurance claim last I checked.)

If that's the case you need be very careful dealing with him and document everything. If he already lied to the police that's a very serious crime and hes going to be trying to cover his ass. I use to have a supervisor that is now facing 25 years in prison for lying to the police.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Aou:
I agree with the others in this post:

Deal with him one-on-one to try to get money back (document/record everything)

Police

If for some reason the above two items failed, then start googling the IMEI stuff. But yeah - it's illegal itself, so you'd be better-off trying to resolve this properly.

You might look up the laws in your state regarding recording. In good ol' Arizona, the law states that any conversation can be recorded, so long as one person in the conversation is aware of it ... that person can be the one doing the recording. :D

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ericrangel76:
From everything I have read, I think the 32GB cards are the only ones that have failed the most. I think it the ones made prior to a date of 12/2012.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Chocu1a:
I just had another 32gb SanDisk fail yesterday evening. It had been getting the "sd card suddenly removed" warning, this time in my Note 10.1. That makes 3 in the past year. One failed in my old GS3 & the other in my current N2.

When the one in my N2 failed, I switched to a 64gb Samsung c10. No problems since Feb.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jtambis6:
"Meh"..... I have a 32GB Sandisk on my S4 and I get intermittent hiccups from listening to MP3s and movies installed on the Micro SD but no unmounting errors yet. I'm thinking of jumping ship to Patriot or Transcend MicroSD on my next purchase.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] XxLostSoulxX:
My 64GB works really good and acts as the onboard storage.

My 64GB has been working since Feb.

32GB Adata works since last year

32GB Adata works since earlier this year

32GB Transcend no issues at all since last year.

All of which has no issues since I bought them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiz561:
Hey.... A friend of mine has a problem. She has a Galaxy S2 and it is stuck in an endless boot loop. She said it's running a stock rom and nothing funny was done to that phone. Being the nice person I am, I said "sure, it's an easy fix...just have to reflash it". Well....not so easy.

I can get the phone into recovery mode, but there's nothing I'm able to do productive on there except wipe the user data, which I didn't want to do. I thought I could install CWM through it to back it up, but it only allows files that are on the internal sdcard, not the external one. Argh.

So, I put the phone into download mode, but the computer does not recognize the phone. I've installed Kies, uninstalled, reinstalled, etc. I am doing this on OSX that is running a virtual machine in parallels. On my S3, Parallels detects the phone being in download mode....on the S2, it does nothing. Odin doesn't recognize anything.

OK, next....try it on OSX with Heimdell. Did that, nothing. Tried Android SDK and did a adb detect, and it didn't find the phone. Tried it on Linux on another laptop. Linux at least recognized it in dmesg as a Samsung Phone when it is connected, but doesn't do anything else with Heimdell or Android SDK.

My next trick I might try the usb jig, but I'm not sure if it's going to get me anywhere if the phone will go into the download mode by me forcing it. Another oddity is that the phone shows it charging, but it doesn't charge. For example, the screen still shows the battery at the lowest level.

Before I break out the soldering iron, I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions. Who knows, the phone just may be fubar'ed.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kumarankav:
Do you have samsung drivers installed on your computer?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
You dont need a jig because you said the phone goes into download mode anyway.

Mistahbungle posted a checklist to do when your phones not recognized by pc.

Check his previous posts and see if that helps....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiz561:
Yeah, I saw that list. Believe it or not, it's the usb port. I saw something later that said the usb port on these things can go bad. I've never ran into this before, but apparently, this is the problem.

After jiggling the connector around, I was able to reflash the stock on there, but unfortunately, it didn't fix the problem. I then put siyah on there and I was at least able to back everything up through CWM to the extsdcard.

So, I don't know if the flakey connector would prevent a boot, but who knows. I do know that it's not charging anymore and I can't get back into CWM, so maybe that was the last bit where I was able to get it backed up.

Thanks
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] numanoids:
Where are you looking for it?

Does it appear in the memory section of the Settings area?

Also, when you open file explorer and navigate to my device - you should see a Storage Card folder.

If its not there, try soft resetting the device and try it again.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] henrylim:
Re: Looking all over

I hope yours is not a unique problem pertaining to your device. Else it might be a faulty SDIO slot. Did you test with another SD card?

Your SDBUS driver is designed to support detection of SD, USB, CF, CDROM, DVD and Hard Disk, and it should be ACTIVE under the registry entry HKLM\Drivers\Active\X (where X denotes a number) with

"Key"="\\Drivers\SDCARD\\SDBusDriver"

Perhaps you can ask the others for a copy of the CAB file to reinstall the SDBUS drivers?

Worst come to worst, you may have to rely on your warranty support.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] edsub:
I have an issue with my new SD cards as well, but its in a Himalaya.

The problem is a very poor performance of the SD card in real life.

The benchmarks I ran show a good performance, but when using the card my Himalaya frequently locks up.

See this thread.

As I have the issue with at least 2 cards (Sandisk 512MB and Extrememory 1GB) and I do not have an issue with my Kingston 256MB I am suspecting the slot itself . . .

I notice that whenever the phone is charging the display never shuts itself off despite being set to 1 minute. It happens in Stock and now in FreeGS4 v2.0.0.

I cannot find a setting to change that.

Hello fellow androiders!

My name is Mike, and I'd LOVE to load android onto a non-android device. From what I hear, this is possible, but I'll need your help!

My three pillars are achievable for this to occur,

My guinea pig device is an old Samsung SGH-T669, (you can google the specs, I'm registered as a new user and can't post the exact link) but comes equipped with a touchscreen, and a flip out keyboard.

However, the crucial pillar, a bootloader on the device, exists, as well!

So, I need help on getting the right Android O v(second pillar) to load onto the device, and to do it the right way (third pillar, injection)! Anyone willing to help and try out something cool?

And TBH, it doesn't matter if it can't handle Android, it is still worth trying it out on this guinea pig IMO!

Sincerely,
