Hi guys,

I'm looking for a thread about ALCATEL ONE TOUCH 995, which talks about rooting and installing a new ROM issues.

I'm not new to these tasks since I've already rooted/modded Xperia X10i, Samsung galaxy S2, Nexus 7 a lot of times so I know I've looked quite enough for a solution, that's why I'm asking here for some support ;)

To summup (but Not too many details here since I may not be in the right thread), I can't understand why this phone is so stubborn: I can boot into CWM, I can mount and unmount everything I want.

-> I formatted up to 10 times in a row /system, /system/apps, /data etc... everything I could format or wipe, indeed...

--> I tried to install some custom ROMS -> symlink failed, or couldn't format /system, errror while formatting /data ....

I even succeeded to launch aroma installer to install ICS H1N1v5.8a ROM ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37117723 ) without any error :D :D, BUT: ----> after reboot, it was exactly as if I just did nothing... nothing erased, nothing formatted, just like before with GB 2.3.6, same wallpaper, same apps installed etc.....

So!

--> Do you know which thread deals with this kind of issues?

Thanks a lot!

[EDIT] Alright I found the Q&A thread: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=456

--> If a moderator could delete my thread... thanks!

Hi,

I use the carbon rom for more than two months, everything was perfect, but 3 days ago, the device will turn off.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
I am not sure, but have you swapped the internal and external memory by using a mod, or a setting or by editing the vold.fstab file?

---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------

I am asking whether you swapped because (I am not sure just a guess) all partitions in the eMMc chip might be having the same major number(because they might be having common device driver) but the sdcard being a separate component should probably have a separate driver(therefore separate major number), if you have not swapped the memory it could be a driver problem (kernel level) so try changing the kernel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gt7599a:
Thanks, no I haven't tried remapping the sdcard in /etc/vold.fstab.

Currently that reads

## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab

## - San Mehat (san@android.com)

##

#######################

## Regular device mount

##

## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>

## label - Label for the volume

## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted

## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.

## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

######################

# internal sdcard

dev_mount sdcard0 /storage/sdcard0 11 /devices/platform/dw_mmc/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0 nonremovable,encryptable

# external sdcard

dev_mount sdcard1 /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1

# USB storage device

dev_mount usbdisk0 /storage/usbdisk0 auto /devices/platform/s3c_otghcd/usb

I've wondered if this was a kernel issue but didn't feel qualified to make that guess or substantiate it. Also, if it is a kernel issue, I would have assumed others would be having the same issue (on the I9100 at least).

Can you recommend a different 4.2 kernel? I've tried CM10 based & AOKP based & they all had this issue.

Thanks for the help

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
It seems there are no problematic swaps(but I am not completely sure) , but since according to your logcat the error shown is the sdcard partition having a "different major than the disk(in this case eMMc chip)" , basically since the device driver is common for all the partition in the eMMc the partitions (/boot, /system, /preload, /sdcard.. Yada.... Yada) the major will be same for all these partitions, but the minor will be different(which is pretty normal).

With that explained, either your device driver or maybe something that uses(something in the firmware which handles mounting and stuff like the vold.fstab file) the device driver's may be faulty.

Since the device drivers are embedded within the kernel, usually changing kernels should work, but there's a probability that this is some kind of bug common to similar kernels, also since it can be due to firmware also, I am completely at a loss to pinpoint anything since I don't use 4.2, and never encrypts my sdcard, so I can't even recommend something(like a 4.2 kernel) that might fix this, so you are, sadly, on your own with this(until someone else more experienced comes by) , try flashing different compatible kernels, try a different 4.2 rom, Best of Luck.

Hi,

I am running on SlimBean and I have an issue with my mobile network.

My phone don't find the network.

When I go to Settings/Wireless and Network/Mobile Network/Mobile Operator, I immediately have a error message "an error happenedwhile network research"

I tried reboot and re-insert the SIM Card. As I don't have any onther SIM card, I can't try if it's an operator issue or a phone one (but I didn't find any info about an operator issue in my area on internet)

Does anybody have an idea of what I can do? A phone without mobile network is quite disturbing ^^

therefore: adv.consequently, hence
Ex. I think, therefore I am. I was afraid; therefore I ran.

[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
I think there is a misunderstanding between us. There s a difference between underclock and undervolt. What you are talking about is underclock. Undervolt has got to do with how much voltage the battery is supplying. We can reduce it to save battery but it causes stability issues.

[HTC Desire C] vega509:
should I change to the Clockwork Mod Recovery 6.0.3.0 recovery

I rooted my Desire C using the Desire_C_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0. The kit used a different recovery than the one recommended in the recovery section. The kit uses Munjeni Touch v5.5.0.4.

If its recommended to change the recovery, how would I do this?

Another question about recovery, is there a way to boot into recovery without removing and replacing the battery?

thanks
[HTC Desire C] me4488:
Either use TWRP or CWM. Both of them are linked in the index thread.

Download ADB and use the command fastboot flash recovery [filename].img

If you power down the phone and hold down power button and vol- you will go into bootloader.

From there you use the speaker buttons to navigate and the power button to select recovery.
[HTC Desire C] vega509:
thanks for the quick reply. Are you recommending I upgrade the recovery? Does this recovery eliminate the removal of the battery to get to the bootloader? With the Munjeni Touch v5.5.0.4 the only way to get to the bootloader is removing the battery, or using the USB cable and the Desire_C_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0.
[HTC Desire C] vega509:
I updated the recovery, all went well. The phone still needs the battery removed and replaced to get into the bootloader with vol- and power keys. Is there any work around? or utility that will access the recovery? without removing the battery. I'm planning on doing frequent nandroid backups.

thanks
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
If you install a custom rom, you will get the option to boot to bootloader or recovery directly from the power menu. By long pressing power key. I think it is present in all the roms here. If you dont wanna install custom rom then there are apps that can do what you want. Search on google.
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
The CWM by munjeni had a reboot bug that was later fixed in CWM 6.0.3.0. That is why I linked to the stable version :)
[HTC Desire C] vega509:
will the new recovery work with my nandroid backups created from the old recovery?

if I opt to change to TWRP from CWM are the nandroid backups still good to use?
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
No, TWRP backups are not compatible with CWM and vice versa. It is a rather tedious process to make the switch but trust me you will not regret it. TWRP is really awesome.

Here's what you do..

Restore a cwm backup. Flash twrp then backup again (using twrp)

Do this for all the cwm backups you want to carry to twrp. I had 3 backups when I made the switch.

Once this is done you can delete the /sdcard/clockworkmod folder from your sdcard if you no longer want to keep those cwm backups. (Once you use twrp, there is no chance you would want to go back to cwm!)

I dont know of a simpler method.
[HTC Desire C] vega509:
Could I just keep the CWM backups, and should I need to restore the phone back to factory for warranty, just put CWM recovery back on and restore?

Is CWM backward compitable with its older versions? ie my first backups were with 5.0.4.0, and my last backup with 6.0.3.0, so can the backups be restored with either version.
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
Yes CWM backups are compatible with other CWM versions.

I was just saying that you have an 'option' to delete those backups to save space. You can keep them if you want.

And remember - CWM is a custom recovery. It is different from stock recovery.

Updated to Pandora 4.4

I added AVRCP metadata to a 4.3 version with no ads & unlimited skips. If you already have Pandora installed, uninstall it before attempting to install this version to avoid any issues.

No. Most likely your head unit is using a proprietary App Mode that communicates with the stock Pandora app via Bluetooth SPP, which is not the same as AVRCP. However, if that app works fine for you, you will not gain any additional functionality with the AVRCP patch.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:07 PM ----------

Do you mean album covers in the Pandora app on the phone itself? I am having a similar problem. The album art will briefly display on my phone when a new track starts and then it disappears to the default music note image. Very intermittently the cover art will stay for a full song.

If you mean cover art via AVRCP to your physical headunit I am fairly certain that is not supported by this app or even by the AVRCP 1.3 spec itself.

Lastly, Is anyone else getting the Album name to display? I only get the track name and artist. It would be great if someone could add it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TT_Vert:
You are correct, on my pioneer head unit it goes into some type of app mode on the phone. It's my other car that won't display the name. it seems all head units in Hyundai's kias do not display this info. My friends Taurus does show it via BT. Kind of disappointed.
