Yea i tried that no good u know what im thinking the problem is i took the folder of my titanium backup from my n4 and placed it on my n7.2 u think it can be cause of that cause im using the backups that was on my n4 could that be interferring when i restore that data in titanium?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bso44:
I would not restore app data or especially system apps and data from another device. Restoring just apps without data should be fine - I've done it before. You might need to do a factory reset and reflash the ROM to start over again.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgolds72:
Hi all,

I bought my kids nooks for Christmas and rooted them all with cm7. Recently my oldest son decide he wanted to clear his nook and set it back to the factory state... (no idea why) regardless he decided to do it on his own which I only found out about after he had er bricked it. Here's a description of what he says he did.

1-Wiped the SD card

2-Copied the nook software to the sd card

3-rebooted into recovery mod

4-deleted anything he could delete? No idea, this is where I had to laugh

5-rebooted the nook, it didn't... Go figure

I'm not sure what version of recovery he had but it had to be an older version. I tried the various resets but I'm pretty sure the internals been wiped... now I did connect it to a PC and just cycled the power and it will chime recognition for a sec but then its still dead. Is there a way to create a new internal boot loader or is it spare parts?

Thanks either way, love the site

You may want to try to boot ClockWorkMod off an sd card(here is a link to a forum post about it) and if that works then you will want to follow leapinlar's post to repair the partitions here
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Your issue is he probably formatted /boot (older versions of CWM allow that). If he did that it will not turn on unless there is a bootable SD in the slot. The solution is to go to my partition repair thread as the last user recommended and follow the instructions there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] cvpi:
So I recently installed cynaogenmod 10.2 and now my phone won't boot into recovery. I was going to install gapps because I forgot to when I installed the rom. I do the correct sequence of buttons and then it shows recovery booting but then it vibrates and boots normally. I have no idea what's going on so any help would be appreciated.

Edit: Now it looks like it won't boot at all. I think I'll just let it sit for a bit.

Edit: Can I please have some help? I tried flashing a stock Odin firmware and now my phone won't boot past the AT&T logo.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xscrambler:
Hi guys,

since yesterday my phone doesn't show the IMEI any more. Typing *#06# shows blank field, the same when I go to settings, I only see Unknown. I bought the phone from a company in Hong Kong as brand new, it was however updated to Jelly Bean.

The box the phone came in also doesn't show the IMEI and unfortunately I never thought of writing it down when the phone was working fine.

Does anybody know what could be the problem and how to fix the IMEI without opening the phone as that doesn't seem to be that easy...

Thanks!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mayank7795:
First of all, you'll need ' Flashtool '.

Then Here's the Rooting Process for you.

This Rooting guide applies to all FW versions above B.1.10.

1) Open Flashtool.

2) Click the Flash icon.

3) Select Flash Mode. (Make sure USB Debugging is ON in your Mobile Settings before connecting to PC)

4) Select & Flash the B.1.10 kernel. Then Reboot.

5) Select the Un-Lock icon and choose your preferred SU app & proceed.

6) Follow the on-screen instructions.

7) Now you have rooted your device.

8) Flash B.1.54 kernel through Flash Mode and let the device reboot.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nabil2000:
when I flash this 'official' ROM, 4.2.2 leaked official XXUFME7

it changes the IMEI to 0049990xxx...,

and so I get only emergency calls allowed for the phone...

the rest looks ok, but I reverted to last 4.1.2 -

I am on O2 monthly contract - is that a problem?

otherwise, even though it lost phone capability, everything else seemed cool...

any idea around this without having to fiddle trying to restore the IMEI back to original...

when I flash back the last official released 4.1.2, the IMEI corrects itself...

a guru at O2 finds it weird... LOL! and said O2 does not support flashing with Odin, only through Kies...

successful flash of XXUFME7 i9300

If I understand well to successfully get the modem working with the 4.2.2 official Samsung leak, from

KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMG4_I9300OXAEMG4_1314436_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5

to

I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar.md 5

one needs the additional step of flashing the modem file

xxemg4.zip

please kindly confirm...

thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nabil2000:
I sorted it...

this is how:

1. rename I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar.md5 without .md5 extension i.e.

I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar

2. in Linux delete modem.bin from the resulting .tar archive

3. flash, with Odin 3.04, I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar (that had modem.bin removed)

This will keep the correct modem.bin of KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMG4_I9300OXAEMG4_1314436_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5

and so solves the problem...

and all this can be done without rooting...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Missing Cuban:
Hello there. Like many of you I love my S4 but want a more Google experience to my phone. A while so I posted a topic about how to improve your S4 without root to make it feel more like a stock android phone on the original Samsung rom. I loved the original Stock Samsung ROM but I wanted something different. Here is what I did to my phone to make it stock android.

I rooted my phone with motochopper following videos from wwjoshdew on YouTube. (Great channel with awesome helpful videos)

With root I improved some of the things that Samsung has going with the phone. Although Google makes the best... So I flashed a ROM.

I installed goo manager from the play store and then installed TWRP from goo. After this I created a backup if the Stock Samsung ROM and wiped the necessary files. I then flushed CyanogenMod 10.1 which is amazing.

Now to make the most of this ROM make sure to do a couple of things.

- install Nova launcher

- Reset the CPU and under clock

- optimize battery life

This will make the phone buttery smooth in everything that it does. I am running CM10.1 at 1.45ghz and getting battery for DAYS!!! I'm also using LMT launcher for Pie control which just adds to the phones new ROM. Play with the phone and add screenshots of the phone.

CyanogenMod 10.1 is a great alternative to the stock Samsung ROM that allows for the user to have a more Google experience. Its truly amazing and with its additions to the stock Android OS it is amazing!

Enjoy the ROM and enjoy using it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Vaygr:
I have similar setup, the only difference is that I used a PAC-ROM instead of just Cyanogenmod. I can confirm that the performance is also buttery smooth. I haven't tried throttling down CPU clocks yet, but I'll give it a try and report back what I find on PAC-ROM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Reynaldinho111:
This is hardly "the Google experience" Its cyanogenmod... Granted its built from AOSP source, but its definitely far from stock android.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cdnchris:
Is there a stock "GE" ROM out there - I've been hunting through the forums for some time - for a relative newbie the alphabet soup posts are tough to decrypt but I don't see any straight up GE roms?

Yes there's a couple. Pretty stable also. I'm running task aokp and its by far my favorite ROM. Dude knows his stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Frogacuda:
I think once CM 10.2 comes out with the new camera I'll be happy (assuming it lives up to they hype). The current CM camera is not especially good and a little unstable to boot. HDR doesn't work correctly either.

I greatly prefer the CM experience (and AOSP) to the stock TouchWiz one, mostly for reasons of aesthetics, but the AOSP and CM cameras are both way behind.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cdnchris:
I've seen those, and even installed a few. They're all modified versions of the stock GE in some way shape or form. I suppose the question should be, are there any unmodified Google Edition ROMs available for the S4?

But, the volume of its ringing when someone calls is unusually low compared ot my normal nokia (I've max'd it on the slide bar). Can anything be done about this.

Does anyone also know if it can take bigger batteries (my thing is lasting 5-6 hours) before warning.

Ring Volume/Extended Life Batteries

David

Have a look in the Accessories thread in the forum. But a couple of tips:

Switch off the receving incoming beams i.e. uncheck the box in settings. This will save power. Also ensure that you have the button lock turned on in settings so that the phone doesn't accidentally power on.

Turn off bluetooth when you are not using it (and Wifi) and this should help eek out battery life.

As to you first question, I don't think anyone has found a solution but you can experiment with different ringtones in the WMA format.

Sorry all for those who read my last post in my other thread - "

can't root- twrp not working

" which makes this post redundant but I'm feeling a little desperate and I'm also new to this stuff. Since I was unable to install TWRP for some reason it was advised I use the old fashioned NV flash method with prime rom, however 'how to' video from the following thread- http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/tr...ment/976-nvflash-unbricking-forever-root.html

has been removed and now I'm stuck with this message on my tablet :

entering nv flash recovery mode/nv3p server

chip vid ----

I hope this doesn't mean I bricked "permanently mt tf101. I've completed the following 3 steps to get this far:

downloaded nvflash zip and prime 1.4.

1 Connect cable to computer and turn device on while holding down Volume Up. Screen will stay off, but USB will come on.

2 (Windows only) Find “APX” device in Device manager and update driver, then point it at usbpcdriver directory from the zip

3 Run download.sh (linux) or download.bat (windows)

In step 2 - driver wouldn't take I presume since I already updated driver when using frederuco's guide. Shouild I have uninstalled APX and reinstalled this version?

Anyhow, after step 3 allot of messages about partioning came up on tablet and now there is the entering nvf flash recovery mode message stuck on tablet screen. Is this right? Am I supposed to flash prime 104 now? If so how? I was advised to install this way as a back door if you will so as I can later install a better rom once I've successfully rooted.
