[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hgoldner:
QI am running rooted stock 4.1.1 with TWRP 2.4.3.0. Recently I have encountered a situation where Chrome sends the unit into a spontaneous reboot. Apparently, going into settings-->apps also produces a reboot. Otherwise the unit functions nominally and rooted apps run with appropriate root permission. If I use the stock browser, I can even access the web.

In an effort to try to clean things up, I decided to restore a nandroid, and discovered, much to my chagrin, that even though TWRP reports the nandroid has been restored, nothing whatsoever has changed. (Interestingly, the "data" portion takes 0 seconds, obviously suggesting that it isn't restoring the data partition at all). The unit is precisely as it was before I rebooted. In fact, even when I wipe cache, dalvik, system AND data, even factory reset, a reboot gets me precisely the exact same system as beforehand, even if I don't restore any nandroid. I am unlocked, with firmware 10.4.2.20. I even tried to flash the newest TWRP (2.6.0.0) and fastboot reported that it took, only to boot to recovery and see I'm still staring at 2.4.3.0.

It's as though the unit has write protected itself.

Update: Tried again with blob instead of img file which worked. Factory reset then flashed surdu_petru's deodexed stock and problems vanished.

So I appear to be the only person as far as I can tell whom is left softbricked and forced to CWM recover after installing chronickernals .zip from Sd card and rebooting in recovery mode. Are there any apps, configurations, or anything of interest that a noob like me should consider as to why my phone wont start after flashing the Kernal? Perhaps I should nandroid, re-root and try again before installing apps? Im dealing with a T-mobile galaxy s4. Sgh-m919.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAtheistOtaku:
i dont see that kernel in our development forums, so i assume its from the i9505 forum, in which case that is why your not booting. you can only flash roms from those forums, not kernels.

I found it here. I notice the AOSP/CM on the thread. So.. I Suppose its either because im not using a i9500 or because of this Aosp/CM stuff. Are those rom managers or something? Because I have ClockworkMod's rommanager.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAtheistOtaku:
oh chronic kernel, didnt recognize it since you spelled it with a k. Try fixing permissions recovery and see if it boots then

also, i wouldnt recommend using rom manager and goo manager for flashing and stuff, ive had problems with them in the past, though thats just personal preference and experience

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Grimzoso:
Thanks abunch. Since TWRP has an install option does that mean I can flash kernals without booting into recovery mode. Because ClockWorkMod still boots my recover, even without the app.

Anker works

I've had a Nook HD+ for all of 3 days, but happened to have an Anker Pro, the one that charges 12 volt devices too. It worked really well with the HD+ from the non I-Pad I-Phone charge tap. The Nook HD+ indicated immediately that it was being charged, etc.and it has enough amperage to charge the Nook while it's running.

I also happen to have a New Trent. It does not appear to work with the HD+, though I know it sometimes wouldn't show as charging my Samsung 7+ when it actually was. It also couldn't charge the Samsung Tablet while it was playing videos. It would slow the rate of battery loss, so if I was at 51%, I'd watch a movie and be at 45% instead of 30%.

The New Trent looks better and I like the size better, but the Anker has consistently simply works better. The New Trent's one advantage is that you can charge it via USB port from your laptop, the Anker forces you to carry around their AC adapter. The New Trent is great for cell phones or smaller tablets, but the Anker seems to work with everything, even my Samsung Netbook. Oddly, they're both claiming to output 2 amps at 5.1 volts, but the devices sure respond differently.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ktan.us:
Hi all,

My phone is 2.3.5 stock with sense 3.0

I have followed the easy root kit to successfully updated hboot, unlocked bootloader, installed CWM and rooted with superuser working just fine.

However, I did a factory reset from the Settings afterwards, and superuser started to misbehave:

1. it either won't load with a complete white screen.

2. Or it would load successfully but won't be notified when other apps trying to request root access.

I have booted the phone into recovery and flashed the su.zip couple times, but nothing has changed for the better.

I am wondering if I have to

1. rerun the root kit one more time to unlock BT, flash CWM and install SU.

2. or have to go back to the original state by rerunning the RUUxx.exe file downloaded from HTC, then run root kit.

2.1 Will rerun RUU clean up all the CWM and SU stuff and go back to the original state?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
Try reflashing SU in CWM or flash superSU...you don't need to run the tool or a RUU.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ktan.us:
Thanks for your advice.

I did flash SU several times to no avail. I can see the SuperUser in the app drawer, it just won't work as before.

So I can flash superSU in the same way in CWM?

Would that override SuperUser or they would just co-exist?

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] ktan.us:
Flashing SuperSU did the trick!!!

Much to my pleasant surprise, SuperUser is automatically removed! At least I don't see it in the app drawer anymore.

It is rooted again now!

Thanks a lot

For those of you who have grounded pin 19 to get sound out via bottom connector, have you seen this site which sells proper car kits for the blueangel

Audio out at bottom connector

Hi,

I have just finished my work.

I have grounded pin 19 via 10K resistor and then installed wavedev.dll from the site http://www.thb.de

Now it works well. Internal mic and audio are switched to pins 1 (mic) and 3,4 (audio). I have connected the MDA III via bottom connector to my motorcycle intercom and now I can hear all instructions of my navigate software as well I can telefone with my helmet on.

I had tried it before without THBs wavedev.dll and it was only possible to use the telefone function. MP3s and navigate instructions couldn't been heard.

Can you make me one?

I have a PPC6600 (PDA2k, XDAIIs, etc.) and I have a couple questions...

When you unhook the bottom connector from your phone, does the audio go back to the internal speaker and microphone?

Also, when the bottom connector is plugged in, what takes precedence, your bluetooth headset or the bottom connector's audio?

Last, if I paid you could you make me a cable that would have the connector that would feed to :

3.5mm Microphone Plug

3.5mm Stereo Audio Plug

Radio Mute Plug (pin 12 supposedly?)

Power?

My vehicle's radio supports RCA feeds and Radio Mutes, and I would LOVE to get this hooked up...

Lastly, is it possible to pipe out video through the connector? (Just thinking about the XDAII backpack...)

Hi rleestma,

>When you unhook the bottom connector from your phone, does the audio go back to the internal speaker and microphone? <

Yes internal speeker and mic are turned on when the connector is unhooked.

>Also, when the bottom connector is plugged in, what takes precedence, your bluetooth headset or the bottom connector's audio? <

Bluetooth headset is preferred, the external speeker works but microfone is only used from bluetooth headset.

>Last, if I paid you could you make me a cable that would have the connector that would feed to :

3.5mm Microphone Plug

3.5mm Stereo Audio Plug

Radio Mute Plug (pin 12 supposedly?)

The answer is no. I'm glad, that my connector works. But until this I had disturbed 3 connectors because of my very small experiences in soldering.

I think that every TV or radio store could help you when you tell them the pin layout and how to groud the pin 19.

>Lastly, is it possible to pipe out video through the connector? (Just thinking about the XDA II backpack...)<

I don't have any idea how video can be piped out through the connector.

2. Wire to solder in connector

Questions on Schematic

Hey there...

when grounding the Car_ON (pin 19) through a 10k resistor, which pin did you ground it to? Was it 15, 16, or 17? The reason I ask is that it seems that incoming power ground needs to be on 15, 17, and 18, so does that mean that the CAR_ON needs to be sent to pin 16?

See what I mean here...

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Connectors

Thanks,

Ryan
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] bombur:
Hi,

I bought this connector http://www.haid-services.de/pi-680482093.htm?categoryId=49 .

The Cable and the resistor I got in a tv shop.

One pole of the resitor you have to solder to pin 19 and the other pole must be soldered to pin 16, 17 and 18.

Don't use pin 15 for ground from the car charger. It's only used for USB cable.

regards
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] rleestma:
Yes, I saw that you soldered pin 19 to pins 16, 17, and 18, but the problem is that the positive lead ties into 19, 21, and 22...

So, with that being said, i have two questions... Did you tie power into your setup? If so, then...

1. Do I tie in the positive lead from the car charger into pin 19 at all because it's going to be grounded out?

2. Do I tie in the negative lead from the car charger into all the pins, or only the ones that aren't being tied back into 19?

If you have an example that you used the worked that would be STUPENDOUS... I feel like I just need to have this quesiton answered and I'll be good to go...

Ryan
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] rleestma:
Can I use this connector, or do I need to use the other one from you?

http://store.yahoo.com/gomadic-new/ipconplug38s.html

Again, if you used power, can you let me know what pins you tied into the positive and negative? maybe a diagram?

Ry
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] bombur:
Hi rleestma,

have a look at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/Connectors

There you can see that pins 20,21,22 are power+ and pins 16,17,18 are ground. Now connect now solder a 10k resitor between pin 19 and (16,17,18) and it should work.

But only if you download the wavedev.dll from www.thb.de

regards
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] rleestma:
wiring question

last question...

when you were wiring yours up, did you jump 19 right at the connector or did you run everything back to the opposite end of the cable and then run the 10k resistor?

Also, did you tie in the car charger's negative and all the negative pins together at the other end of the cable, or did you run one negative wire to the connector and then split it there? same for the positive...

thanks!

ryan
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] bombur:
Hi,

the resistant fits in the connector, so there is no need to use an extra wire to connect it outside to the ground.

WaveDev.dll modification and HandsFree

I have an Audivox XV6600WOC that I am using with a Parrot CK3300 in my car with Teletype GPS. All has been working well there.

I wanted to have a charging cradle as pipe audio via the bottom connector to my stereo (via FM tranmitter). So, following the outstanding and much appreciated instructions above I rewired a seideo G2100 cradle, including the addition of a switch added to the side of the cradle to switch the pin 19 10K resistor grounding on and off (in case I wanted to continue charging and play a CD for example). I haven't actually run the audio yet, but confirmed that telephone audio is turned on and of with my switch, then with the addition of the new WaveDev.dll, file that VoiceCommand and WMP sound is turned off and on.

Now the problem (there always is one, isn't there?). With the replacement of the WaveDev.dll file, my Parrot Bluetooth car kit no longer gets audio. Aaargh! I am thinking that the good folks at THB must have complaints if their car kit software upgrade messes up bluetooth headset audio (Parrot CK3300 connects via Headset Profile).

After all my work I am at wits end. Any suggestions would be truly appreciated!

Thanks!

Does your bluetooth headset still work or did that break as well?

Also, did you replace your wavedev.dll by working through your workstation? I left myne at work so I'm trying to do it right on the pocket pc, which is why I think I'm failling...

Keep me updated on the bluetooth thing, 'cause I can't afford to lose my bluetooth headset...

Thanks!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] tfletch:
I actually don't use a bluetooth headset, so I can;t report on that. I do know that the Parrot CK3300 connects to my phone using the headset profile rather than the handsfree profile, so I presume that a headset would fail as well. But unless you try ...

It's easy enough to switch back anyways. Make sure you rename you old file to WaveDev.dll.old (or similar), then if it fails you can just rename the new file WaveDev.dll.mod and rename the .old file back to regular WaveDev.dll and you are back in business with a soft reset.

I've just ordered up the bits to make my kit. If I lose the BT headset operation then I'll not be happy.

I just want to get the audio out of the connector and use the BT headset for the mike.

Is this going to be possible?

I should add that I'm using an XDA2i. The BT profile supports audio through the BT headset and I get both M3 and Tom Tom audio through my Jabra.

Maybe this will make a difference to the function of wavedev.dll.

Any ideas?

I think you should be able to rename the problem .dll (to.old or whatever), soft reset, and then delete it. The original is in the ROM so it will return.

However, here's a cab file with wavedev.dll that was made by a guy in the Windows Media Player 10 thread in BA Upgrading forum. Just run the cab and it should update your wavedev to a "normal" version.

I have been watching this thread with great interest! I'm hopeful someone will release a cradle that is enabled in this fashion... I'll be damned if I'm going to connect the headset jack every time I get in the car :)

I have received all the parts to make this happen yesterday. I'm anxious to start building my DIY carkit. But the first thing i did is open up the connector i ordered. It's the same as the one that comes with the Qtek 9090 that can be used for charging.

The problem is: on the 'outside' i have a 22-pins connector. Based on the schematics posted in other threats i know which one is what. But on the 'inside' of the connector there are 22 pins as well. On each side 6 on top and 5 bottom. So 11 each side that makes 22 :lol: Now which one is which?!? So which pin on the 'inside' corresponds with which pin on the 'outside'?

Help!
