[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Did I say "kindle"? I meant " Otter2-Prod-04". But, whatever....it works.

The 'fastboot devices' command won't work, so don't waste your time with it. Just flash stock system, recovery, and boot images and maybe even the u-boot from the 2nd bootloader thread and you will be good to go.

Personally, I would be wary of the images posted by mindmajik because he isn't 100% sure if they are for the KF2 or not, and flashing images from a different device will probably ruin your day.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] mindmajick:
Um. Yes I am. It's for the kf2 and I've flashed them myself. Just not sure of the version. Not sure how you got that impression.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
I see. I must have misunderstood you.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] mindmajick:
I probably wasn't clear lol
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] kolevbg:
success!

Well first of all thank you again to everyone who answered one way or another to my questions.

I want to thank soupmagnet for the detailed answers and mindmajick for the upload and following up with the thread so that I didn't have to ask more questions with clarifications.

Don't know what you guys do for living, but when I was a full time software developer I have to admit I was spending a lot of time improving my own software, a little less helping my own customers and definitely less (than you are) helping others.

So hats off to you for what you do here and I say that with the full understanding that all the information I needed is practically free out there and you are just serving spoiled brads like me who are too lazy to dig it themselves.

Recovering the looping KF2 was as easy as making a factory cable, waiting out on the KF2 to charge and running mindmajick's bat file...I mean it can't get much simpler than that, can it?

But it raises the logical question: instead of going through stack overflow planting, twarp installation etc. can't I just please get a zip with bins that I can flash and end up with a fresly rooted device with proper dual boot, factory etc?

I thought this would be the way CyanogenMod works, but apparently not, at least from the two videos I watched.

Anyway, I should be able to just run by the standard guides from here...thanks again!

On a side note one of the two devices I have definitely has a bad USB port. I see they go for $20 on eBay and that's a shame, so I spent a little time and ordered from elsewhere for $2 a piece alternatives. As I mentioned I am now in electronics so I have good hopes they'll fit the bill even though not being exact same as the originals (nor are the ones on eBay it seems).

If you ever need one you can ping me in August when I would have already tried them.
[Kindle Fire 2 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting] mindmajick:
I'm an IT support guy. Run my own business..

Plus I'm weird. I get off on helping others :eek:

Not sure why soup is so helpful but he's definitely a great dude.

Thanks for the REAL thanks BTW.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NailFace:
Hi, I know this is going to sound so stupid but I need help ASAP.

I was fooling around with installing different ROM's for my HTC One, I tried the Google Edition for a while and decided it wasn't for me as I lost the TV remote. I then tried to re-flash the Android Revolution HD 12 I had on before and it wouldn't flash. I thought a wipe would work but now I've succeeded in ending up with a TWRP recovery that works fine but no software whatsoever to flash or boot to. The phone says 'No OS Installed'

Every time I turn off the phone it also says that it doesn't appear to be rooted, do I want to install supersu? The phone says 'unlocked' with CID 11111111

I have totally fallen into the idiot trap, too much confidence and ambition, zero skill and talent.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crushalot:
You should be able to use this toolkit to install SU and also to sideload a rom zip from your PC to the phone to reinstall your ROM of choice. Sounds like you wiped your data partition entirely. Since you have S-off and Super CID you should have no problems loading another rom. Just have to use one of the creative ways to get it on the phone (sideload, USB-OTG adapter, etc.)

I really need a more step by step guide, I've ****ed things up already so I think I need a baby walk through
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crushalot:
Well the easiest way to do a sideload is using the All in One tool. Do you have access to any other PC that have Windows 7 or XP? I don't have a win 8 system to try to assist with compatibility mode with the one.exe tool.

If no other PC options are available then we will have to go the long way which will involve installing ADB like in this guide: (Under Installation section - It has 5 steps for installing ADB)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427008

Once ADB is installed we can use these steps from the sideload guide that I posted:

Make Sure HTC Drivers are installed and ADB is already working

1. Reboot into TWRP

2. in TWRP, Hit advanced and find Sideload

3. Swipe to start Sideload

4. Open a CMD Prompt window and Change Directories to where your adb.exe is

5. type adb devices and it should show your device connected and say sideload

6. Your ZIP file should already be in your adb folder - See Example Below

7. You are now ready to push the zip.....

8. type adb sideload nameofzip.zip <------------See Example Below

9. Wait until it says 100% and reboot back into recovery to flash the ROM

10. If hitting power does not make the screen come one, type adb reboot recovery

11. if adb reboot recovery does not work, hold power and volume down until it reboots to fastboot then go to recovery

[HTC EVO 3D] Ubuntuz:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR DEVICE GETS BRICKED

Alright, I have been working on porting Ubuntu Touch to our lovely Evo 3D's. I will be posting my work here and will change the thread once I get it out of alpha. As you can see this is only recommended for devs or people that know how to use Linux just now.​

FAQ

A: No.

A: Sure! I have a github where I upload my source code, feel free to fork and submit pull requests.

Requirements

Ubuntu FS - (raring-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip).

Decent knowledge of Linux.

Guide

1. Download the Ubuntu FS & shooteru image

2. Backup your phone.

3. Wipe everything (Wipe data/factory reset + dalvik cache, and your ext4 partition).

4. Format your sdcard to have two partitions - one Fat32 (for android) and one ext4 (for Ubuntu)

4. Turn off your phone, insert the SD-card into your computer.

5. Transfer the shooteru image to your SD-card (Like you would do if you'd flash it normally).

6. Open a terminal, Unzip the Ubuntu FS.

7. Run the following command; sudo tar --numeric-owner -axf blabla.tar.gz

8. Run the following command; sudo mv binary /INSERT-PATH-TO-SDCARD-EXT4-PARTITION/ubuntu/

9. Safely eject the SD-card and insert it into your phone.

10. Boot into recovery.

11. Flash the shooteru image

12. Boot up

13. Change the values in /usr/bin/ubuntu-session (Look for export GRID_UNIT_PX = 18 and change it to 12)

14. Reboot

15. Win.

Download

Shooteru image 0.1 (Dev-Alpha)

See where it says "INSERTPATHTOSDCARD" yeah? Put the path to your SD card there.

I figured that there was plenty of people on this board that could figure out how to use Linux.
[HTC EVO 3D] jcsy:
I think if u don't have anything valuable to help Ubuntu, then we should keep quiet

I don't, so I wouldn't criticise anything

For those who do, please help and assist in any way

Testing, drivers, kernel, etc

I believe Ubuntu meant well when he is asking for any form of help from the community to help develop this

Whether he has passion for himself or the project or not , that's not appropriate to condemn or expect

Let's work together when we can, where we can

Hmmm... I was soo lucky when I saw ubuntu touch port for our evo 3d, but... I can't get it working... both version 0.2 and 0.1 doesn't work.

0.2 <--- stuck at htc bootscreen (I have tried also newest saucy-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip)

0.1 <--- I assume there is mistake, second command should be sudo rsync -aP binary/ /INSERTPATHTOSDCARD/ubuntu/ with slash after binary, otherwise bootloop happens (because of no ubuntu files - logical). But even with slash at the end, it successfully copies to sd-ext (not fat32, right?), after htc logo screen, black screen appears and nothing to do....

If this questions is noob - sorry for noobing. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Ubuntuz:
Sorry for the lack of work guys, I was working on a source-built Android ROM but I eventually saw no point in it (plus I have no time). Since Ubuntu Touch is a little easier on ol' Ubuntuz I'll get this fixed up today hopefully.

[HTC EVO 3D] kifgep:
Don't give up~~:fingers-crossed:
[HTC EVO 3D] b.andy:
So with mv instead of rsync it should now work? Because I cannot get it working (and yes, I have got decent knowledge of Linux, don't think I write INSERTPATHTOSDCARD in the terminal :D).

I have done everything exactly as you have written. HTC logo screen shows, then screen becomes black (as I have seen it on YT, there is no boot screen), keys are lighting, but that's all. It stucks here (I have waited 4 minutes, it should be enough :d)
[HTC EVO 3D] Ubuntuz:
I changed the download link a little while after I updated the guide, try downloading again?

Also, can you do an 'ls' of the root of your Ext4 partition on your SD card please? :)
[HTC EVO 3D] b.andy:
Thanks! I have checked md5sum of shooteru image "the same" (compared to local before copy and what goo.im said) I thought. I downloaded it again, and it is w o r k i n g. Thanks! You're my hero!
[HTC EVO 3D] Ubuntuz:
haha, brilliant! Obviously it's pretty lacking in features since a) this is an older build and b) ubuntu touch isn't even done yet ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] b.andy:

[HTC EVO 3D] Ubuntuz:
Yeah, Ubuntu now uses 'flipped images' which is why the newest one won't work. I'm still waiting for Ubuntu to update their guide to include how to change the image :(

So I've searched around for an answer but haven't found anything, so here goes....

I have a stock S3 and when I'm playing music on my phone (stored on the external card) and using headphones plugged in, as soon as the screen turns off, the sound comes through the speaker. I've tried 2 different music apps and they both did it, along with trying 2 different sets of headphones. I have the 2X Battery Saver, which I disabled and tried again with the same result. If I'm listening to Pandora, it doesn't do this, so I'm guessing it's something with the music being on the card? Any direction would be helpful, thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
If you have stock and an unrooted, unmodified rom on than this should be app related. Are you using the default samsung music app? Also what version are you running (4.0.4 or 4.1.x) Here are some things to try:

1. go to settings->sound and try to look for settings that may be causing this

2. got to settings->security and try to look for settings that may be causing this

3. go to settings->apps and find your music apps and press clear data on it. Then reboot and try again.

4. I did find a chat room with issues you described. The one suggested solution was this "Unplug your headset, start the music and then plug the headset in, it should reset for you correctly. Could not tell you why that's what I had to do." (Don't know if it works since I cannot test it)

Thought about it and this is what I would do. I would make a backup of the phone. I would Odin the MDL tar located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2258107. I would do a factory reset. That way you remove all doubt and any possibility of them figuring you out. Once you get the phone back you just install custom recovery and restore your backup.
