If you can, backup your sd internal and external, boot into recovery and mount as usb, then format both...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lukapalooza:
thanks for response, sorry for being late to the party.

I cannot mount as usb. the loading circle just spins. when i try to do it in TWRP, it wont let me either.

also when i go to wipe cache or whatever else, it said failed to mount sd card in the console log and it wont let me wipe anything.

when i go to storage in settings, the problem seems like it is with internal storage. under internal storage, it says "mount sd card", when i do this, i get a notification saying preparing sd card but then it goes away after about 2 seconds. then the internal storage area says "mount sd card" again.

I am willing to wipe everything because I got all my photos off the sd card so im okay with wiping it all and starting over. i already did a factory reset but it didnt help. unfortunately i cant wipe cache and other things so i dont know what to do. thanks for your help!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MyNameIsMitch:
Hello!

I've been unable to flash any roms for at least a month because of this. Both TWRP and CWM fail to flash anything because of a error 7.

This is almost always caused by the first line in the META-INF/com/google/android/updaterscript. However, all of the roms are for the d2spr, and all of the updaterscript info is correct. In the phone, the buildprop correctly states the model as D2SPR and L710. So, I have no other ideas as to how to fix my phone. Please help.

Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
Have you updated to the latest bootloader and most current recovery?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MyNameIsMitch:
To be honest, I've never updated my bootloader after unlocking it. How might a gentleman go about that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hewey_mx5:
Yeah that is probably your problem. Just go here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1910947

In the first post, download the MD4 firmware. Boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, then flash it just like a rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
You can head over to freeza's stock rooted thread and grab the "MD4 Firmware" zip. The reason you are getting that error is because the updater-script checks to see if you are on the MD4 bootloader. If you are not, the flash fails because the newest CM builds require certain components for RIL that are only present in the MD4 firmware.

EDIT: Follow the link that was kindly posted above.

Moonshine S-Off has been released for the T-Mobile HTC ONE. Check it out @ http://moonshine.io/ and be sure to buy them a beer! :)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Root-Maniac:
Bump!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] epsix:
Moonshine is like all in one package right? It will SOFF my device and install root and cistom recovery? Unlike revone i need to go through htcdev to unlock and root my device.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Greubin:
I believe that only applies to the droid DNA. All others use htcdev
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Root-Maniac:
Moonshine is a tool to give you S-OFF on your phone, and install a custom hboot which will give you most of the advantages of an engineering hboot. The custom hboot will allow you to individually flash or erase any partition on your phone.

What moonshine can do for you..

S-OFF Your HTC device if it is a supported model and firmware

Unlock your bootloader (devices that are blocked by HTCDEV.com)

Install moonshine hboot. This is a customized hboot with many eng-style commands.

Install su binary

Install Superuser.apk

Install busybox

Install an unsecure stock kernel

Revone requires you have knowledge of adb/fastboot in CMD. For beginners i definitively recommend Moonshine!!! Oooh and dont forget to buy those guys a beer! Countless hours (days) have been put into coming up with this method.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] epsix:
Yes, you must unlock your device at htcdev first right?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Root-Maniac:
Yea, to use moonsine you need to unlock your bootloader with htc dev,

Hi,

I flashed my Dutch MDA Compact with the 1.06 Swedish QTEK roms and the 1.05 Radio Stack. But now, all of a sudden, when I use my speakerphone, the other side has a lot of trouble hearing me properly. Does anyone have a solution to this?

I already tried hard resetting my device several times, but this did not solve anything!

Other than this, I am quite happy with the update...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] j_metselaars:
try lowering the volume of the speakerphone. Just by using the volumeswitch.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Sanomi:
I'm affraid this did not solve my problem.

To be more precise: people on the other side of the line only hear bits of me talking, like i am breaking up or something.

Any other suggestions?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] pietrucci:
I can't help you but I have exactly the same problem.

I bought a Dutch T-Mobile (English ROM) last week and I immediatelijk flashed it with the QTEC 1.06 end radio 1.05.

I never user the phone with the original ROM, so I don't know if that had a better quality?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ak_koko:
I've the original T-Mobile Dutch ROM still in place. No problem with the other side not being able to hear me. I've seen a lot of messages on upgrading the ROM. But I've seen very few messages telling me what you would gain. Also the sound of the speaker using the phone is fine to me.

AK

mine is unlocked, and I'm using it on Orange network.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckypeanut:
Hi Scene,

I've noticed the rumors since start of HTC One and before. My opinion to write this is that i'm coming from HTC One X to One since i heared the rumors of One. Many (custom) ROM's and S-Off later of One X (and One) i came to the conclusion, that the rumors (in my opinion) of pure android (4.0.1/4.1.1/4.1.2/4.2.2/4.3.0 ...) are useless. Why ? The OS and it's rudimental state surely brings the hardware to life but, that isn't enough. Some of you pimped up stock Android so that it's usable and quite fascinating again, but I've to take up the cudgels for HTC and it's "Sense" because their "Sense" really make sense ! It's not only the way HTC transform Android customizable, no it's the way how HTC expand and gear cuts grundbreaking features (that results to) usable and powerful system state of the art. I won't mess up with stock Android anymore (and the pimps); "Sense" is the way how it should be ! Go 4 Mike1986 ... ;)

If you don't know what it does then why would you S-OFF your device? Doesn't sound very smart to me. Like above said... It just helps YOU possibly break you device but since that's a lame answer I'll help.

You can flash modded hboots, custom splash screens, remove the red warning text on boot, remove bootloader tampered sign and lock/relock/unlock bootloader.

You can probably do more but that's what I use it for. Happy bricking :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] snote:
My first Samsung was a note, the original. After dropping it and graciously given an upgrade for free and 75 bucks towards a new phone, I thought great note 2.

Well the note 2 is unlike my original note in many ways, I think it lacks a few features of interest the S4 holds. Anyones thoughts on the s4 over the s4 active?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] devoureddreams:
I love the s4 active but it has an LCD screen which turns me away but its the price you pay for a waterproof phone. Amoled ftw
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
Depends on what you want. Active of course can be used underwater and has a higher ppi screen with "glove touch". However, the regular S4 has a much better camera and is lighter/sleeker. I prefer the regular because when carrying in my pocket I like a slim phone. Plus, even though I don't take a lot of pictures it is nice to get good quality shots when my camera is not around. Both have strengths over the other.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Son Rise:
S4 Baby All Day! Its Best In Every Way. No Questions Asked:):)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] snote:
In the end I went with

s4. I got it in the 32 gig. I sure miss the size of the original note though. Cant say the note 2 left a bad impression on me, but it certainly was note like the original..

The s4 all said and done cost me a mere 175 with my discounts, they were nice enough to allow me to keep the usb cord from the note 2, even installed a screen protector (free).

Now to pick a case. With 96 gigs of storage I have no need for clouds, that's for sure.

Thanks all who replied, your opinions helped.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] snote:
I definitely hate phone shopping and more so accessory shopping. Rather pay a visit to the dentist or suffer some life threatening trauma then to try pick a quality phone I am stuck with for 2 yrs.

That case looks nice, and great price, I am debating on something a bit different though. Clip and a hard shell.

I still have to return the otterbox for the note 2. Never even opened the package lol.

I as well need to root this phone. The note 2 was rooted 5 minutes after opening the box. Thanks to several of the guides, I unrooted and returned as well with the guides easily. Rep never even looked at the phone.

[Sony Xperia ZL] Pablo256:
Hi,

My phone is stuck at sony logo, after install a custom rom (RomAur). I have locked BL, and I put my phone into fastboot mode and im tryng to fix it with flashtool (pc recognize the phone). Can I flash a rom in fastboot? it doesn´t work into flashmode. Any help? (As you can see im new in this topics...)
[Sony Xperia ZL] accts:
Did you try download stock ftf - run flashtool - choose the ftf, when ask for the phone ... push the off button for 5s (behind the phone next to sd slot), then put the phone in flash mode (vol. down) - connect your usb, phone should flash.
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Every ZL/Z is meant to work in Flash Mode, just reset the phone by holding the OFF button on the back panel where the SD-card and SIM card are placed. Disconnect your phone from the computer, hold the OFF button until it vibrates THREE times (hold it for 3 seconds it vibrates twice (hard restart), hold for 5 it vibrates thrice(forced flashmode)) soon after plug in the phone into your computer (along with the proper drivers installed from Flashtool in (or wherever you installed it) C:/FlashTools/Drivers (these drivers are SOE-blah, ADB, and fast boot mainly located at the bottom.) Once you've accomplished this, head on over to the Android Development section download a FTF file and restore. If you wish to keep all your data try reinstalling RomAur with proper installation instructions, due to my lack of experience with that rom I cannot give you the best advice other than if you have CWM installed it's an option to constantly flash other roms/zips to possibly fix your scenario. Good luck!
[Sony Xperia ZL] Pablo256:
I'll give you more details now, about my problem.

1.- My phone was OK (rooted and with CWM) running Hackit custom rom.

2.- I install RomAur, then on reboot the phone got stuck on sony logo (it means, sony logo, and then reboot, sony logo and then reboot, infinite loop). Pressing OFF button (back next to the SD) it restarts the phone but the infinite loop continues.

3.- I installed flashtool (drivers, etc)

4.- I run the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and plugin the usb cable at the same time it puts on yellow light (i dont know what mode it is). Infinite loops stops, phone is off and battery charging icon is displayed.

5.- On yellow light then i disconnect the phone and then pressing VOL DOWN and reconnecting flashtool recognize it ("28/024/2013 20:24:13 - INFO - Device connected in flash mode"). No light on the phone. If i do the same but with VOL UP it runs fastboot (blue light).

6.-On flashmode, I press the flash device button (black beam icon), it ask for mode, i choose flashmode. Then i select the ftf. and flashtool displays

28/043/2013 20:43:29 - INFO - Preparing files for flashing

28/044/2013 20:44:07 - INFO - Device disconnected

And the infinite loop returns...

If i pressthe powe off button nothing happens, it vibrates only one time, every restart on the loop

HELP! and thanks for your answers
[Sony Xperia ZL] accts:
From your comments, get to your step 5. Meaning get your phone off. Run flashtool choose stock ftf when it asked for the phone. Holding Vol.Down plug in usb - this should reset your phone and get you going.

Does anyone know why my phone automatically changes songs and the volume? Like when I'm walking with headphones, it'll change songs all of a sudden and increase volume to full blast. (This issue is only with headphones.)

I've tried different ROMs, kernels, and they're all the same. The issue keeps coming back. I've noticed this started happening since the latest boot loader update so I'm wondering how can I fix this or if anyone else has this issue?

Its really bugging me cause I can't listen to music properly.

has anybody managed to configure the TT3 navigator and bluetooth GPS to work with the new XDaIIi at all? I've been trying most of the day,

I can get the BT manager in the xda to pair with the GPS unit.

I can tell get the xda to communicate with the gps I think???

I cant get a signal from the GPS to xda when TT3 is on, hence useless!!

In my xda BT manager I can see that the GPS is active on an outgoing connection, is this right?

I thought it would have been an inbound connection, but that may be just me!

HELP!!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IceCatraz:
So my phone is in a bootloop. I made a dumb mistake, and restarted my phone to be met with a bootloop. My question is - is it possible for me to get my files off of the phone before reinstalling/doing a fresh install? I have access to both download mode and CWM Recovery - I just have some files on here that I really need, and unfortunately, they aren't replaceable. Is there anyway for me to get them off of my phone? I'm running WFTN.

I've tried starting up CWM and backing up to external-sd, but every time I do I get a "can't mount backup path" error. So I go to Mounts and Storage and try mounting my external sd, but I get a "Error Mounting /external_sd!" message. Can anyone help me out?

Edit

Actually, I managed to get the files I needed. I needed some recordings off of the phone, and I was able to plug my phone into my computer via usb (in CWM) and it gave me access to the phone's internal SD card. So I suppose all that's left is actually re-flashing the ROM. I was running an older version of WFTN, I suppose i was due for an upgrade anyway.

However, I suppose my original question remains - is it possible to backup the files on the phone (without using the usb)? Is there a reason I was unable to mount my external sd card?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Just because you are flashing a rom doesnt mean your recordings or anhthing on your sd card is wiped when you flash a new rom. The exception being if you use odin to put a oneclick of a jellybean rom on. Then it wiped internal. And if you are worried about sd card just pull it out. Iirc I was always able to pull files from both internal and external while in recovery using el26 kernel. Not sure where the problem was. But glad to know you got your files.
