[HTC One S] cbgti:
I want to format my internal SDCard (One S).

How can I do it without bricking it?

Must I format it with the Recovery (TWRP) or in the Bootloader?

One of these solutions will cause a SD Brick... And I don't want to brick my storage! ;)
[HTC One S] sGollSv:
I did it once with the bootloader with factory reset i think. (I just wanted to boot recovery but i was 1 row too low... so it was a mistake. But everything was gone)
[HTC One S] real187:
within the custom recovery, or within the/a rom.

in bootloader it will erase evrything on the device
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qreg66:
I recently followed the steps on this tutorial All steps were followed in order and the OS boots perfectly as does the included 2.6 TWRP. However, when trying to use TWRP flash some CM10 roms I am never able to. Reading on various forums I discovered that this can usually be fixed by downgrading TWRP to 2.3 or 22.

Problem is that after I flash them onto the Kindle with fastboot (which states that the write was succesful) and reboot through fastboot I can't actually get to the recovery. I turn on the Kindle, hold vol+, the Kindle logo goes from orange to blue but then it always just shows fastboot logo. This is when the fastboot cable isn't even plugged in. I can flash the 2.6 TWRP that was linked from the tutorial back on and IT works fine. But it seems to be the only TWRP img that will work. I'm lost here. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

(I get the older TWRP files from here. The site says too use FireFireFire for 2.2 but it's my understanding that doing so can brick newer KFHD models.)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
First of all, you have to use the TWRP made for your device. Since you are posting in the KFHD forum, I have to assume that is what you have, so here's is the link for it's corresponding TWRP recovery, posted by Hashcode...

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qreg66:
Thanks for the link but I actually do have the working version of TWRP for KFHD7. The problem is it is the only version that will work. I've downloaded older versions of TWRP (2.3.3.0) specifically but none work. For some reason 2.6 is the only one that boots to recovery correctly. However, judging from comments on the web it IS possible to downgrade to older TWRP versions. That is what I need to do but can't.

My qtek after a reset always go to the bootloader screen (USB v1.0).

I have to take off the battery and wait for a few seconds to power it up again, but it always start as i've done a hard reset.

When it starts again, i have to align the screen, and when it is installing the ext rom, it goes to the bootloader screen AGAIN!!!

If i cancel the instalation, it is recognized by my pc (active sync comunicates fine) but when i want to flash it to correct the possible problems it lost comunication. Goes to bootloader screen but no comunication.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] n70shan:
Hi all..., i want to ask a quick question.. can i install camera. apk and other camera extention files From xperia arc s ICS 4.0.4 firmware to my Sony xperia s.??.. because i m rooted and have ICS 4.0.4 installed........ reason to install that camera app is because i previously had sony xperia arc s on which i installed the latest version ics 4.1.B.587 World and trust me the pictures it took were great and a point to be noted that it did very low compression to photos. My generally taken photos size were +2 mb normally 2.5mb:cool: and here on my xperia S if i take photos in 12 MP camera mode , the file size is hardly 2 mb :eek: while Arc s was 8mp only.......

So i think sony software has high compression for photos which may lead to loss of details when zoomed ..............so what you guys say should we try to install Arc s ics .587 camera apk to our xperia s??:confused:

Note: the information above given is true and best to my xperience .... i m not drunk and in my senses so kindly give Appropriate Suggestions:D

You are right. stock rom with cybershot mod is the best i've ever seen on my acro s. compression under stock without mod is much to high.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobby3:
Hello to everybody. I'm italian and I have a problem with my XT890 stock (booloader locked, android 4.1.2, system version 91.2.26001.XT890.Retail.en.EU) and sim card by italian operator Noverca. Noverca is a Full Mobile Virtual Network Operator, MMC 222 MNC 07, working in roaming with TIM (222-01).

When I enter my sim Noverca, on phone: menu> Setup> Other> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names> APN cannot find any access point. If I try to create one ... > New APN> Edit access point> (insert the parameters provided by my operator)> ... > Save, the new APN created by me is not saved and the list of APN available is always empty. Similarly if I receive a message from my operator self-configuring and save these settings, I see a pop-up that the configuration was successful but when I go to see the list of APN find it empty again.

I tried to configure it with the data on and off, data roaming , but always no results. The problem also doesn't occur with sim of other carriers.

The sim card is new and works fine on my other Android phones (RAZR XT910, Galaxy i5800), making right APNs.

In system/etc/ apns-conf.xml file there is written the configuration for my carrier but it's wrong (there is written MMC 222 MNC 01)!

I contacted Motorola XT890 but the answer is that it was not released in Italy and may have compatibility issues. (But in Germany, France and UK has been released and the gsm/wcdma networks are the same as in Italy!)

Thank you for helping.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duck from space:
Same happens to me. Try reseting apn to default and edit the config that should appear.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobby3:
Thanks but in my case doesn't work. Also at the reboot there isn't any apn saved.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobby3:
I solved this problem unlocking the bootloader and making Root.

After I went to system/etc and renamed apns-conf.xml in apn-conf.bak (only to have a backup, i could delete the file and it was the same).

Then I went to menu> Setup> Other> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names and resetted APN to default.

Now I can write my carrier's APNs and they are saved without disappearing.
[Android Apps and Games] mochat9:
**My last thread got closed, should've read the rules, here goes a second try.**

One day when I was jogging, a little girl that looked scared and confused approached me. She couldn't find her mother and she asked if she could use my phone to call her. I thought to myself 'Sure, I'm helpful.' When I was waiting for her to finish her phone call, I noticed that she was swiping her finger on the screen. I was thinking to myself, 'Why does she need to scroll during a phone call?' I took my phone back and lo and behold, she was going through my pictures. I reprimanded her, telling her that she shouldn't be going through other's phones like that. I felt real bad that I had to take my phone back before she could find her mother, but what else was I supposed to do? It's not like there's an app that can do that.

That's when Avanos was born.

It's a simple phone dialer that locks the user in it so that no other app can be opened, fullscreen so that the notification bar cannot be accessed, It even closes the long home press automatically. It operates just like the built in dialer. After the person hangs up, it opens a password prompt that unlocks the phone and makes it go back to normal when the correct password is entered. I honestly think this is a revolution in Android. It can be helpful to coaches when kids that don't have phones need to call their parents, nice people who gives their phone out to others frequently, or as an everyday emergency phone.

So tell me what you guys think; I need the feedback. :)

Here's a link if you want to try it out, I don't know if it works for rooted phones. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mshaw.avanos8.lite

[LG Optimus Black] ighor.martins:
Hello..

I have a problem trying to instal cyanogenmod on my phone.

First I have all drivers updated, I can actually use my phone as pen drive, I have the lg software working and etc,

But When I try to use SmartFlash Tool, there is no connection the "Com Port" to select. The phone isn't found.

Then I tryed "Unlock Root Tool", and it worked well.

I used "Root Checker", and it says that my phone is rooted.

But now I need to flash a new room, but I can't access the custom recovery menu.

I installed clockworkmod, and tryed to flash the recovery menu, it says downloading until 100%, then change to flashing, and stays there. won't go anywhere.

when I try to flash rom from the rom manager, it stops working.

When I try to reebot into recovery, it reboots the phone, but don't go into any menu, it does a factory reset, and I have my phone clean again.

What can I do?

Thank you.

(noob).....So i was running TWRP with paranoid android3 on my sprint s3 an accidentally flashed the wrong Google app zip with goo manager an ended up formatting my rom , internal storage and right now i have no OS installed....the only thing that's running is team win recovery project & pretty much don't know where to go from there. Also i can access my phone still thro the external sd card still. A little insight would be nice so i know what my next move should be.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] milky1112:
Download new rom, Toss on extrnal SD, Flash in TWRP, and your alive and kicking once more. (TWRP has mount SD option so you can add to SD card from there) You'll be up and running in no time.

Only bad thing is all the pics and what nots (If not previously backed up) are gone. So it's a good thing to make a backup in TWRP after flashing and getting setup Just in case (Save to External SD)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Whiplashh:
You beat me to it. I was gonna say this.

Just a heads up, I invested in aa 16 gig sdcard and I love it. Every few weeks I will transfer what I need from internal over and completely wipe it so it doesn't take too much space. Keep everything on SD card and if needed, a computer.

Sorry if you lost your stuff. :( but at least you can recover. This has happened to me before too, trust me.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] milky1112:
So it's just rebooting back to TWRP after rom finishes flashing? May just try to odin back to stock and start over again if you can't get it to play nice. Typically just doing factory wipe, clearing caches, flashing new rom will boot it back up, Unless the flash failed.

So Ive come to a conclusion last night. I have soft brick myself & now TWRP isnt coming up anymore. So my question is how do i reset the flash counts without an os?:confused:

Odin back to stock and start from Square one. (Provided you can get into download mode) This won't reset the flash counter, but will get you going again to re root and flash something new =)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Malfix:
Hey, I also deleted my operating system and am stuck on TWRP, and I have an external SD card as well. I installed the exact ROM that's meant for my device (It's supposed to run on 4.4.2 Kitkat and it is an LG Tribute 1) and imported it to my external SD card. Problem is, when I try to flash the ROM onto the Lg Tribute, it does tell me that it is "installed successful" but when I reboot, it prompts me with a "Your device does not appear to be rooted, install SuperSU now? This will root your device." it gives me an option to "Do not install." But when I press the "Do not install." Button, nothing happens, so I am basically forced to install the SuperSU, which I normally don't mind, (since I actually already rooted my device before the OS was destroyed, which is probably why it got deleted in the first place.) but the thing is, after this happens, it reboots, then goes straight to TWRP, which is not supposed to happen. So I suspect the fact that I am installing SuperSU every time I reboot is what is causing my OS not to install. So I would really appreciate help. Thanks.

Hey guys. I tried searching about but can't seem to find anyone with a similar problem. After updating my phone to 4.3, the stock Gallery app has been misbehaving. All the thumbnails show up as grey and full image viewing also shows grey. I know the pictures aren't corrupted because other apps can view the images fine. Even when taking new photos, the new pictures also show up grey in the Gallery (also in the stock camera app since it's tied to the stock Gallery app). I've tried wiping cache and data for the Gallery app to no avail. Anyone has any idea?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
Just thought I'd add a little to this, I flashed my father's Galaxy Nexus with the 4.3 yakju image, except for the user data partition, keeping his 4.2.2 one from a nandroid backup. (The phone was back from warranty with a new screen, on an outdated yakjuux ROM i.e. the factory authorized repair centre didn't even bother writing the current yakjuux build. Plus I found the whole 4.3 image first, so didn't bother with the OTA.)

He encountered the missing pictures issue, new images and video not even saving. The busybox chown -R 1023.1023 /data/media/* Chainfire suggests fixed it.

I thought there might have been something in the OTA script taking care of this, but can't find it after checking... I'll assume the 4.3 blank user data partition does too. Strange.
