Hi guys,

I have a XDA hanged to com1 in bootloader mode (v1.06) and it does not connect to XDA manipulator.

Anyone knows whats happening?

Anyone knows the proper commands and format to communicate with a xda in bootloader mode?

Has anyone examples of such communication?

I wanna talk to her!!

My girlfriend just lost her note 2 and I was wondering if the insurance will send us a new note 2 or a refurbished one . Anyone already went throigh insurance with this phone ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rlee008:
it'll most likely be a refurbished one. any warranty replacements are always refurbished phones so this case shouldn't be any different.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] evoguy404:
You won't know the difference both are new.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
I recieved a replacement about a month ago from asurion and it was brand new in a sealed box battery spen back cover. And I know of 3 other people on xda that have gown replacements thru asurion. All received new phones
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilipTD:
The replacement that I received through Asurion was refurbished.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
I guess I got lucky .... if u can call it that. I broke my screen but at least I recieved a new one in return. .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmacia06:
They can send you a new or refurbished depending on your luck. Of all my experience I have only heard, with own ears (and they kept their promise), Google, say that they only replace their warranty claims with new devices.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] westkhalifa13:
Well my girl ended up recieving a brand new replacement in sealed box with all accessories, which I thought was cool. Thank you guys for the replies and im thinking all replacements are new or refurbished according to reason for claim.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] beezie916:
Every refurbished replacement I have gotten so far (all android phone historically) have come with a defect and I call Asurion and then they overnight a brand new one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] MarkP80nj:
Sorry if I should have started a new thread, but it is insurance related.

My wife dropped her phone and cracked the screen.

It's an s3.

We pay the $7 or so per month for insurance, but they want a $150 deductible.

Is this how it works?

And if I'm paying a deductible, I want a brand new phone, not a refurbished old one.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Yes that is how it works. And, good luck getting a new one. It is really up to asurion. I am not convinced they care what you or I think.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] MarkP80nj:
Thanks.

Well, that sucks.

Kinda makes me wanna cancel the dammed thing.

Except I won't, because in case I lose the phone for good, I bet even buying a used one will be more expensive...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
I just read in a thread on the S3 page that asurion is replacing broken S3s with new LTE S3s due to stock issues. Make sure you don't put the sim card in an old phone before you call and make the claim, they will switch the insurance to that phone. If you already have put the sim in the broken phone and run it that way for a day or two. Asurion can tell.

Check the last posts of the linked thread. Some of the thread is sketchy but some of it is able to be used legitimately.

[Ouya General] altimax98:
So I thought id share some of the things i have learned about my Ouya that makes life a little easier:

1: Double Tap Ouya button = Home

2: To get an Xbox360 dongle to work with multiple controllers follow these steps:

2A - Power on Ouya WITHOUT xbox dongle attached

2B - Boot into Ouya and have the light lit on your Ouya Controller

2C - Plug Xbox360 controller dongle in and pair your xbox controllers.

2D - Activate within app (N64 emu it is in settings/input and then hit the on switch for each. Then go ahead and set it to the xbox360 controller profile and when you play the game hit multiplayer setup and follow the instructions. Each emulator is different.

3: To turn off your Ouya completely hold the power button on the Ouya until the standard Android popup appears and then use the controller to hit Yes

4: Root Explorer (Paid) can mount Dropbox as a partition within the app saving you the step of having to use the official Dropbox app which sucks.. BUT you can only open Root Explorer through Nova or another launcher. Fails through Ouya Launcher. You can also mount a SMB partition as well. Just makes sharing that much easier.

5: Never leave your Xbox dongle plugged in on boot. It screws with things. For instance I cannot start certain games because it is seeing my Ouya controller incorrectly and wont accept button inputs

Hope these tips help some people
[Ouya General] gianptune:
6) Pressing 'Y' and then "powering off OUYA" doesnt really power it off. A large portion of the android framework is still running, including pretty much every service in init. Dalvik, zygote, adb, internet, etc are all still there, and still doing whatever they want to do. Apparently the only part of it that does power down is the video output.

7) Certain triggers make the ouya "power back on" (even though it never really powered off). One of these is getting a signal over HDMI cable. some TVs send this when you select an input, some of them send it when they power on.

8) OUYA has the option enabled to kill apps when they're no longer in focus. This is good since there's no "recent apps" button where you could normally kill running apps that you no longer wanted to be running. This is bad in that it makes some apps act wonky. For example, if you find a video in TVPortal and select it to watch, you will see the video in your video app like mxplayer. When you are done watching it and go back to TV portal, it will start all over from the beginning of the app.
[Ouya General] TadeoNYC:
Nova's recent apps shortcut doesn't even work.
[Ouya General] altimax98:
You can change this in Developer options and deselecting the Dont Keep Activities option on the bottom. Netflix requires this in fact
[Ouya General] JLCollier2005:
Netflix requires you have that unchecked? I haven't run into any problems with it and I keep it checked.

The main reason it's checked is because if you let Android do it's thing like a phone, it'll take up too much RAM and slow down the bigger games, such as shadowrun. Leaving this checked is the best way to run it as a video game console.

The powering off by the Y button puts it to sleep much in the same way your phone goes to sleep when you hit the power button to turn off the screen. It puts it in a low power state mode and Wifi does go to sleep, but it does still stay connected at a very low level. For all purposes (since this is an android device) this should not affect the longevity of the product.

One thing to add is the difference between holding down the button on the OUYA until the shut down dialog pops up vs holding it down until the system goes off is that using the dialog makes sure everything is saved while holding it down is, essentially, like a battery pull. It shouldn't hurt the phone, but there's a small chance some data could be lost.

Hello,

I have been researching my issue with CM10.1 and attempting known fixes. My issue was with data outside of home WiFi. Data was non existent. Flashed several of the basebands and found MB1 to be the best. Only problem is that LTE no longer works. Have to have in 3g only. Wife who is currently still on Sprint gets the 4G and I did with Ting (Sprint towers) prior to flashing to CM10.1. So is anyone else in a 4G area having issues with data? Just curious is all.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zapper_master:
You can actually flash another version, like the lt28h, root it and install cwm. I have the lt28at flashed with lt28h jelly bean, rooted and have cwm, its totally possible. Just have to read the threads, then read it again and follow the instructions closely. Once you have cwm you can flash other roms even with a locked bootloader.

Unfortunately once we have JB, CWM doesn't stick, actually it doesn't work at all. So the best I have right now is a rooted flex with the official OTA update...but no CWM :( At this point I only know of one other rom that is available, Ice cream flex and that is with ICS of which CWM works with.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] pieter91:
Hello everyone,

I've searched everywhere I can think of to figure out how to solve my problem, and I assume the answer is hiding in an obscure part of an earlier thread on these fora. I was able to root my L9 P760 running Android 4.1(Jelly Bean) and from there naively assumed I could flash the recovery using ClockworkMod. After rebooting I've been getting the infamous "Security Error" screen. I've been able to get the "S/W Upgrade" screen, but that's as far as I got. I believe this means the bootloader is locked.

I followed a lot of instructions I found including using fastboot via omap4boot(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2119090) and the offline kdz flash(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2085344), but without luck. Fastboot would cause the phone to reboot, losing the "S/W Upgrade" screen and the kdz method would stall at 4%, leading me to find out that the phone needs to be in the "LG Update" USB mode, which I can't achieve because it won't boot.

I have two Macs running OS X 10.7 which can dual-boot into Windows 7. All software is up to date. I have experience using the command-line.

I hope there's a solution to this, and I hope that posting this here can help others avoid this problem in future.

Thanks in advance,

Pieter

Edit: I finally managed to flash a stock version of recovery, the x-loader and u-boot for Jelly Bean using the fastboot script from here. For those in a similar situation, I set the driver for the OMAP4xxx device which goes under TI devices(or something like that) and then I had to set the driver for a device called LG P4(or something, I didn't take a screenshot). I was then able to use the stock LG Mobile Support Tool, via the "Recovery Phone" option, to restore the newest version. However, it still won't boot properly. I get the LG logo when turning it on, and then the animation with the LG logo with the shiny effect on the smiley face keeps running in a loop. Is this the boot loop problem I've seen people asking about? How do I access recovery(and would that accomplish anything)? Any help would be appreciated.

Edit 2: I think I fixed it! I'm just documenting what I did to be helpful to other people. I had tried to do a hard reset earlier, but it didn't work. I tried it just now, and it worked, I got an droid with a progress bar underneath. Then it booted, and I heard the startup sound which I didn't know I was missing. I would still like to know in detail what I did wrong, and what I did right, and why it was right. Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Simple, you probably did nothing wrong. Things just happen. I had this happen to me once. Security Error

However, I didn't install a custom rom or recovery img. All I did was flash a different kdz version (for my device). So my guess is that the boot img or other img, got corrupted.

I fixed my issue by flashing x, u, boot, recovery all in fastboot. Then I ran the flash update program again and it worked
