Hi everyone,

I upgraded my XDA succesfully :D by using the SD method with a card from my digital camera. After that, I formated the sd card with the card reader then I plugged it in my digital camera.

And here is my problem, the digital camera doesn't recognise anymore this Hi-speed 512 sandisk. I tried everything to recover it but no success at all until now. :twisted:

I understand by using the OSI image tools, the card has been formated in a special way to make space for the file NK.nb1

So if someone has got any similar experience, be welcome to give me any tips for a solution.

Thanks.

i just formatted my card with my xda

and pocked mechanics
[General Accessories] cruisin-thru:
My digital camera has the option to format while in the camera, have you checked the built in menus? You could try formatting your card in the card reader with FAT16 if it is FAT 32 at the moment, if it is FAT 16 NOW then try FAT32.
[General Accessories] chimpanzer:
Hi guys,

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry I forgot to say. My XDA card reader and my PC card reader don't have any problem to read or write or format this SD card, Which I did. FAT and FAT 32, but there's no result for my digital camera.

Always the same message: " unable to use the card" and the SD Card was working perfectly before.

One strange thing I have noticed (I think) is that the memory capacity is different now. I get 6 Mb more than before.

Otherwise, yes I tried to format the card with the OS from my digital camera but without any success as the camera doesn't let me any possibility to access to the menu with the card plugged in it. I'm stuck.

Before

to use OSI image tools the capacity was;

FAT: 477 MB

After:

FAT: Free space : 507109376 bytes => 483 MB

FAT 32: Free space: 506372096 bytes =>482 MB

I'm just wondering if maybe a header from this SD card was wiped out during the process. Maybe some of you guys know a software who could read and write on this special part of the SD card, then I would compare and maybe repaire it. :)

Thx

Hi,

Is it possible that someone try to plug a sd card who was used to flash a PDA in a digital camera minolta Z3 or other Z...?

I would be interrested to get a feed back on the result.

Cheers,
[General Accessories] chimpanzer:
Finally after several Emails to (Minolta and Sandisk) I got a valuable answer from Minolta who confirmed my first thought. BTW, Sandisk never replied to me, I’m very disappointed by them. Fortunately, there are others competitors in this sector.

Guess what for the next new SDcard…

So:

On each SD card (Others models certainly too), there are several important information on the boot. This information is necessary to inform the digital camera on the technical specification from the SDcard. If the original boot is missing or corrupted, the digital camera doesn’t recognize the SD card properly and screen the following message “Unable to use this card”.

And here is the solution to recover an original boot for your SD card. You should use SDFormatter V1.1 .

Now my SD card is like a new one(only joking) .

Cheers,

I'm considering getting the ATT version and unlocking it for use on a Canadian carrier where tethering is included in our plans. Has anyone else successfully got USB tethering working on a SIM unlocked phone with non-ATT carriers?

There's a month old thread indicating someone else had a problem getting this to work.
[HTC First] PdtS:
Yep, that was my thread.

Problem stands, and my carrier doesn't even restrict (or acknowledge as a thing) tethering.

What I did is this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.tether

Not the convenient "out-of-the-box" solution, but it works.

I currently switched to slimbean and love it. I previously had the stock slimmed down version, so I reinstalled watchon. However it does not function (the LED doesnt light up upon IR output). Is there anyway to get this to work? Am I missing the peel component? Would it ever be possible for SlimBean to enable to use of the IR Blaster?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
It's not going to work. Maybe ever.

It doesn't have the touchwiz framework which is required for the ir to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jova33:
AOKP has IR blaster working. You have to sideload WatchON, as the play store will say your device isn't compatible, and the Video portion will never work on AOSP ROMs.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bshpmark:
Okay, folks. I need some help. I was not able to flash new Cyanogen ROM's so I tried updating my TF300T to the latest US firmware. Here are the results and where I stand now.

1. TWRP 2.5 is loaded in recovery.

2. Latest ASUS firmware is installed.

3. Lost root.

4. Tried to re-root and cannot. SuperSU fails every time I try to update the binary.

5. I wipe everything and can boot into recovery.

6. I tell TWRP to flash the latest ASUS firmware zip file.

7. Firmware flashes but then when I go to reboot in TWRP it says that no OS is available!!

8. I can swipe the lock and reboot into 4.2.1 but obviously no root.

9. I have tried flashing the signed superuser file and it flashes and says successful.

10. When I use root checker pro to see if I have root it tells me that I do not have root.

What in the hell is going on????????? Any help or outline of steps would be appreciated.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rirere:
Bootloader info plz. Unless you were using the experimental CM10.1 build (or a select few others), it sounds like you tried to flash a ROM compatible only with an older bootloader onto the "latest" build (from your description).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mcdickey:
I have an i337 and am running Clean ROM 1.5 with MF3 modem. I also have the Xposed framework and Nottach app installed. Today I also installed the 3mint framework with the 2.3 settings app. Everything works great except the text labels on my power menu are incorrect for the 'Power Off' and 'Restart' positions. The 'Power off' position is currently labeled as 'Restart' and the 'Restart' position is currently labeled as 'Mute'. The top of the menu is also labeled as 'Screen Lock', but I believe it should say 'Power Menu' or something like that. See attached pic.

Any ideas on how I can fix the text labels? Thank you.

[Motorola Photon 4G] BgDaddy:
Folks,

Phone was acting very odd today...had to force close a bunch of apps. Rebooted, phone looked as it went back to factory reset since I was asked to re-enter my google account info. Once I did that, all my icons were set back to default but otherwise, all apps/data were there. However, texting didn't work. Updated my profile. Afterwards, I get a notification that update to 45.3.6 was available so...I updated. All seemed well but still...no texting and still had to force close a bunch of apps. Later, I received notification that 45.4.13 was available so...I updated. This update got stuck and all I saw was the infamous rectangle/Andoid Icon. I rebooted and it would just hang at the Dual Core MOTO logo. Cleared cache...no dice. Finally, hard reset to factory. Still...no boot. Hangs on Dual Core Logo. Using recovery, went to see if I could install update via Sdcard. It wasn't there to use.

Question...what the f*uck do I do now?? Phone is not rooted. Can I transfer 45.4.13 to sdcard using file transfer from my laptop somehow. If oyu choose to offer help, please be as detailed as possible since I am no expert by far!

Thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CortoMaltese91:
Hello dudes and dudettes.

So, here's the deal - I was able to get my Verizon S3 working on T-mobile network (using cm or aokp) thanks to paravex, as shown on my first post - However, I only used it to make phone calls and text as I did not have a data plan until a few days ago when I decided to join the 21st century and went for T-mobile's truly unlimited 4g (lte and no throttling).

Thing is... No LTE... No 4g... No 3g... just "g" (gprs / 2g or whatever??) so the thing works but is slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter. No, it's not where I am - I travel a lot, especially from Baltimore to New York, and the thing is always on "G". And it's not set to use 2g only for battery saving.

I tried speedtest.net and others, but results were pretty redonkulous and only served to confirm my fears... I tried both LTE and 4g APNs for T-mobile ("fast." something and "epc." something), but both only work on GPRS (I can see the G or check by dialing *#*#4636#*#*)

I'm running the latest nighty (jb) for aokp d2vzw, and will try CM and my nandroid backup of stock touchwiz. I have a feeling stock might work, but I really don't want to get back to ICS, much less with touchwiz. I also can't sell or trade my phone 'cause it's dinged in a couple of spots, so please refrain from that suggestion.

Once again for my fellow ADHD peeps - Verizon S3; Tmobile network; unltd 4g plan; stuck on GPRS.

So... how do I get t-mobile 4G (and LTE) to work on my Verizon S3, preferably using jelly bean if possible?

I'm attaching screenshots with some stats.

Thanks in advance!!

I plan on using my n7 as my home phone, i will also attach a speaker to it so that it is loud enough to be heard throughout my home.

I have a question to anyone that uses their n7 heavily throughout the day, have u run into any issues by leaving your n7 powered on for more than 6-8 hours? like i said i plan on using it as my home phone, and it will be powered on for a long period of time and, it will mostly be on stand by. screen off with wifi on and talkatone in the background awaiting any important phone calls.

any positive inputs would be appreciated
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv:
I leave my n7 on all the time with the Wi-Fi and GPS radios always on and have hardly any issues.

If l realize that I have not rebooted it in several days, I'll reboot it - though I honestly don't remember ever needing to reboot it other than when messing with the recovery, or installing a kernel.

While it's setting there with the screen off with Wi-Fi and GPS on it seems to only use 1 to maybe 2 percent of the battery per hour.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ViruZz89:
Hi guys,

since a few weeks I have problems with the performance of my HTC One XL running, Venom XL 3.2.8. The CPU load is often on 100%, for both cores, only after a restart, it works better.

Another problem is the pulldown shortcut bar, sometimes I can see it, sometimes it is disappeared and I have no idea how to get it back, after some time I can see it again. I have not changed anything in the settings.

I also have problems with the connection with mobile internet, errors and connection breakups.

Has anyone else also these problems or has an idea how to solve it? I am very satisfied with this ROM, very good work, but only these problems are going on my nerves^^

Thanks for your help.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ViruZz89:
I am running on TWRP v 2.5.0.0.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
download and flash 2.6

then

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot bootloader

select recovery from bootloader

in TWRP, select wipe, then advanced

Select everything except SDcard

If you haven't checked the md5 prior to flashing, make sure to check the MD5 of your rom with an md5checker on your PC

Copy the rom over and reflash.

Should work fine after.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ViruZz89:
If i will do this: how about all the apps and settings? is it like wipe? Because I don't want to install and setup everything new. Sorry about the stupid question^^
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
You can backup apps but not system apps or system settings.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Well yeah the reason he's asking you to download a different recovery is so you can do a full wipe and start fresh. You'll need to full wipe and flash your ROM again.

Because TWRP 2.5 has issues with wiping and flashing, that's probably why you're experiencing the problems you have now.

Just use Titanium Backup to backup your apps.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mlese92:
I've been wondering this for a while but can't find much on the web. I was wondering if charging my battery when it's not completely dead will ruin battery efficiency? If for instance my phone is 30% and I'm going to need it for the night is it fine to charge it without the worry of damaging the battery. I'd assume our phones are advanced enough it wouldnt matter but figured I'd ask
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budeone:
Yes, you will be fine. I cant even run my phone out anymore.

Charge away!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
Au contraire, mon frere. Keep your phone as charged as possible. IF YOU LET YOUR PHONE DIE, IT WILL LOSE CAPACITY. That's all there is to it. Charge it as much as possible, except if the battery is hot. If so, reboot, and let it cool for 5 mins, then charge it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Lancerz:
The first 2 days after I got my phone my battery was dying pretty fast but now that I've had it for a week it's lasting much much longer now.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
Not entirely true. Try to avoid the high end of the charge scale if you can, because then you're banking entirely on the assumption that the onboard controller will correctly charge-cycle the battery from the 95%-100% states. I just don't trust the onbaord that much. :P

No. That used to be a problem with older batteries (where it was known as the memory effect), but current-generation Lithium-ion batteries only suffer from this to an essentially unnoticeable extent. If you drop the battery below 10% or so too often (a deep discharge), you can prematurely erode your capacity. It's a good idea to do this once a month or so to keep things running smoothly, but other than that there's no problem with charging/discharging whenever (outside of force of habit and pride-- you can't boast about long battery life if you're charging often, after all).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
I STILL don't get it. How one earth does anybody get decent battery life on this phone, let alone those RIDICULOUS 5 hour screen times? I'm assuming there's no way without rooting, though. I can barely get 2 hours of screen time. And my power saver is always enabled!

Appx 35% of my battery is consumed by kernel. About 20% by the OS.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budeone:
I can just speak for myself. I root my phones before I use them so I have no idea how much better it is.

These guys who make the roms do some amazing stuff and take out a lot of crap to make our phones run better and faster. In that process, the battery life really improves.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ShivaSmith:
Hi,

So I have a bootloader-unlocked and rooted (otherwise stock) AT&T HTC One with the latest TWRP.

When you generate a Nandroid with TWRP it creates ".ext4.win" files. I cannot find any possible way to get these files on to a Mac (iMac w/ OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion). I'm guessing it's because of the ".ext4" part -- so they are probably .ext4 Linux-style files that cannot be saved on the Mac's HFS+ file system.

I had hoped that I could just zip up my whole TWRP nandroid backup directory and then transfer the .zip to my Mac. No dice. The zip function of ES File Explorer errors on the ext4.win files. That I find a bit weird since the files are clearly ok on the phone's file system.

Does anyone out there use TWRP and a Mac and have a way of saving their TWRP Nandroids to Mac?

Google's "Android File Transfer" and "adb pull" would work for me on all other kinds of files but not these ".ext4.win" files. Similarly I could not get Bluetooth or Airdroid file transfer to work on those files either.

The only solution I could come up with was to use ES File Explorer to upload the nandroid files to Google Drive. That works but is really slow.

It would be great to save them to my Mac over USB or Wifi.

Any ideas?

thanks,

Matt

p.s.

I suppose this could be an argument to switch to CWM if its nandroid files are Mac-storable. I did find one post on here that seems to indicate this, but I like the touch-GUI of TWRP -- I'd like to continue using it if possible.
