[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fishwithadeagle:
I have been experimenting with some various governors and have found that interactive and ondemand work best on the nexus 7. My question is which one will have better battery life on the nexus 7? Which one will have the least stuttering? Just curious. Everyone seems to state that interactive will be the better governor, but I tend to notice interactive heats up more in chrome. Anyone else notice this?

Any helps would be appreciated :)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Username invalid:
When running low on battery I found conservative with runnable works the best for me. Undervolting by 50-100mV and running custom kernel plus ROM can also contribute. I always turn my WiFi and GPS off when not being used. I would not know of such imperceivable details between Interactive and Ondemand as battery, stutter or heat. Mine reaches 70 degress celsius under overclocked heavy benchmarking load.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
For battery life, stick with interactive or conservative.

For less lag and stuttering, use ondemand or performance.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tikay00:
Wow, you couldn't be more wrong. You have it completely opposite. For better battery life, and not to have your frequency set to the highest value, almost at all times, go with ondemand. If you want less lag, and stuttering, but worse battery life, interactive.

Test it yourself with setcpu, and CPU spy, and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.

I want to install the JB firmware. My phone's details

hboot - 0.43.0000

CID - htc_038

mainver - 1.26.720.2

I just have to do-

download firmware.zip from this thread

then

rename first downloaded .zip package to firmware.zip

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

and thats it. It will it be updated without risk ? does it have anything to do with radio?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Commands are correct, radio is not so relevant.

After you flashes the firmware you need to unlock the bootloader again and flash a custom recovery again.

Then install a complete new rom

CM10 on the Nook Tablet. My daughter forgot her Google password. Tried everything to recover it with Google, no luck. Created a new Google account for her. But how to "set it" (change it) in CM10? As soon as it boots it displays:

Too many pattern attempts

To unlock, sign in with your Google account.

Username:

password:

Nothing happens if I enter in the new account I created for her, it just sits there with the same info displayed.

Side question: What does SDC Recovery do in the boot menu?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
Did you try deleting previous Google account and re-adding the new account under Settings->Accounts?

It's meant for rebooting into SD-based CWM recovery (assuming that your NT can boot off SD untethered with powered USB).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] baytee:
forgot password

That's the thing. Apparently after you setup your Google account, from then on CM10 boots auto-logging in, but if you'd setup a login "pattern" (grid of dots you trace a pattern on to login), CM10 will then

demand

the google id/pw) She did have one of those pattern login things setup before.

But basically, there's nothing on the screen besides what I described. If you can tell me how to get to settings when I see no icons or anything, I'd love to do that.

Re: the SD int recovery, I wasn't sure...I thought maybe that would let me access the backup I'd made long ago of the SD card via the boot menu, to maybe get it functional.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
You will access recovery and be able to install a backup, but wouldn't that backup have the same password? The one you don't know. Do I understand it correcttly that you are running CM10 from sd card? If so, you can always start over with a freshly made sd card. Very easy if you use Succulent's ready-made image files. CM10: http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/

(He has CM10.1 as well but personally I still prefer his final CM10. SOlid as a rock and I couldn't see any advantages using the CM10.1 I tried last week, but that's just my opinion))
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] baytee:
I had a previous good backup on my PC, from right after I'd built the sdcard and before it was used. (& well before she forgot the password and got locked out like it is now) I copied it to the SD card and did Restore from SD. It restored, I rebooted, and we had the same screen demanding the google id/pw. So, all I can determine from this is that the restore does not FULLy restore what was on the SD card from you backup image.

I saw some other options on these menus, I'd like some clarification on, since I don't want to screw up the Nook part of the tablet!.

On the main CM menu:

"

wipe cache partition

": Does it wipe a cache partition on the internal Nook card? Or just the SD card?

Under Advanced, reboot recovery

: what does this recover exactly? Does it mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?

Under Advanced, wipe dalvik cache

: Does it mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?

Under Backup and Restore, Advanced Restore: There are 5 restore options here. Are any of them going to mess with the Nook card, or just the ext SD? When I choose Restore off the main menu, and select my image, is it doing all 5 of these steps during the restore ? If not, see below.

Restore Boot

(is this what I need? Because the 1st screen I get at boot is this screen asking for the id/pw. What is it restoring FROM?

Restore System, Restore Data, Restore Cache:

Do these mess with the internal Nook card at all or just the SD card?

Restore sd-ext

: Not sure what this is? How is it different from picking Restore off the main menu and choosing your image and letting it run?

I'd appreciate knowing these things, at least for the future..... If nothing pans out, yes I'll rebuild, it's just time consuming since I customized the partition sizes.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
Time consuming? I'd say a grand total of less than an hour to

1. Download and extract the img file

2. Burn image to sd card

3. Open for example Mini Tool Partition Wizard and resize the partitions. The ones you'd want to resize are the last two, and it's very easily done. The steps I took when I redid it just now:

a) Deleted last two partitions

b) created new partition 3, named it DATA (doesn't matter!), made it the size I wanted, made it EXT4 (according to instructions

on Succulent's site), Primary

c) created new partition 4 with all the remaining unallocated memory. FAT32, Primary

I already had the software for burning sd card ( I use WinImage) and MiniToolPartitionWizard installed, but I did a fresh download of the img file, extracted it and made the card. The whole process took about 35 minutes. Having said that, the download is kind of big, so it can take a lot longer than the 5 minutes it took me today.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] digixmax:
/cache is always the internal emmc /cache partition, even when running ROM off SD card.

Except for sd-ext, backup/restore operations are relative to the internal emmc partitions (/boot, /recovery, /system, /data, /cache).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] spydergt:
you have to go into settings and un sync the google account but since you cant do that cause your locked out i would just reflash the CM image to it all over again , if you have awesome internets it shouldnt take that long to restore your apps and stuff , esp if you already have titanium back ups of app data.

the sdc boots a second reovery image off microsd card ,

if your not gonna miss anything just reflash cm to it , and then restore from the google account once you get the password or if you have the apps backed up ,

Im new to xda's and pocket pc's ...I just bought a sx56 and am trying to figure out how to download music from my pc to the sd card on my sx56 via the active sync connection....the amount of space available on my device is very little and so I dont want to use it up but it wont let me store any music directly from pc to the sd card..I can drag and drop files to the sd card but then it wont read it be cause the format is not changed!!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] mvsmith07:
Your music files need to have the extension .mp3 or .wma if you're using the Windows Media Player shipped with the SX-56.

What is the extension of the file(s) you're copying to your SD card?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
in activesync you can choose explore device

and then pick mypda or something that gets you out of

the my doc dir and then you can access your sdcard

that way and it auto converts files which require that

i always just use a sdcard reader to copy and i never had any problems reading the music files
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] capo_chino:
My bad...Im new to pocket pc, I figured it out now, just drag and drop in to the sd card folder! I must have droped the wrong format file before thats why it didnt work...

Should I use triangle away first, also do I need to install stock recovery? I have read the unroot guide and I understand how to flash just need to know the answers to these questions before I flash. Thank you in advance.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorator:
Run Triangle away, clear the counter, go directly to download mode from there. Flash stock rom with odin (it includes everything including recovery rom modem kernel).

After it is done, go into recovery with the 3 button combo (this time you will see the standard stock recovery, do a factory reset there and you are set). Just remember, doing a factory reset in stock recovery also formats the internal sdcard (the internal phone storage), so be sure to have a backup of any files photos or whatever you have there because you will lose them.

Take your battery out, press the power button for 10 seconds, plug the battery back in, then try to boot.

Or put your phone in the freezer for 5 minutes with the battery taken out, then try to boot.

If none of these work, then say goodbye to your Desire. You'll have to either get a new phone, or replace the motherboard.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrateloSlava:
To me have brought tablet TF300T with 16 GB internal memory that runs only in recovery.

Recovery - TWRP 2.4.4.0.

I discovered that there are problems with /system, /cache and /data partitions.

Mounting these sections did not occur.

I have tried:

1. Format partitions from TWRP menu.

2. Format partitions through script that runs from TWRP

ifelse(is_mounted("/system") == "/system", unmount("/system"));
ifelse(is_mounted("/data") == "/data", unmount("/data"));
ifelse(is_mounted("/cache") == "/cache", unmount("/cache"));

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8");

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2", "/cache");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/data");

3. Format partitions through ADB

adb shell mke2fs -q -c -L data -b 4096 -m 0 -F -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
adb shell mke2fs -q -c -L cache -b 4096 -m 0 -F -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
adb shell mke2fs -q -c -L system -b 4096 -m 0 -F -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

4. Perform a full erase partitions

adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

With the formatting and erasing I managed to recover /data partition.

However, for partitions /system and /cache that did not help.

Confuse the following lines in recovery log:

Partition Logs:
/system | /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 | Size: 0MB Used: 0MB Free: 0MB Backup Size: 0MB
/cache | /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 | Size: 0MB Used: 0MB Free: 0MB Backup Size: 0MB

What else can be done to restore functionality?
