The phone I own is a first gen LG Optimus V. The ROM I use now is MiRaGe CM7.2 ROM. The reasons I rooted and flashed was to get better performance, over clocking, USB Tethering, removel of all bloat ware and useless apps, and to be able to make Nandroid backups of my installed ROM, apps, and settings. Before I did all this, I ran stock Froyo 2.2.1 and was plagued with all sorts of problems the LG Optimus phones were known for. And I was 100% o.k. with voiding my warranty too.:good::laugh:

My old HTC Desire used Cyanogen Mod, my current HTC One X and S3 are using Stock Roms still.

My tablet at the moment using Ubuntu Touch, might go for another rom as the Ubuntu Touch is missing some key features I want in the tablet right now as it is a Dev release. Will hopefully go back to Ubuntu Touch in a later release when those features are there.

[General Questions and Answers] xuphere:
I recently bought a Qmobile A500 Noir, but wanted to flash it with a Custom ROM. Not paying much attention to the model of my cell phone I by mistake rooted it with Noir A900 procedure as defined in one of the posts, instead of A500 and also tried flashing CWM recovery. Identifying that I have used the wrong procedure of a different model, I instantly searched for A500 and got the procedure in of the the posts. Now the issue is that when I try to go in Recovery Mode, my cell phone screen goes complete White, and after a min it auto restarts and boots normally. I am hating the fact that I cant go back in the Recovery Mode, nor in Stock Recovery because I suppose I have replaced it with a CWM Recovery of a wrong version . I want to reset and get back to Stock Recovery so that I can reset my phone and bring it back to its original state as I have found that there is no CWM Recovery or a Custom ROM present for A500 Noir currently. If anybody could please help me in this regard as I am clueless.

Stock Recovery and Boot Files

As posted by by one the member, whom i am highly obliged and grateful to, the Stock Recovery.img and Boot.img have been exteacted and posted in one of the post. Now how to Flash them using SP Flash tools is what I need the guidelines for. I do have the Scatter Recovery file, but I guess VCOM driver files, and Info files for Stock recovery are not present. If anyone who could please shed some light on it, would save me from trashing my phone. Providing the link for Stock Recovery and Boot files. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44351797

Bro tried flashing the Stock Recovery.img through Mobile uncle. but no luck. Still the screen gets black and then restarts and boots normally. the thing is now my Sim cards are not being detected.
[General Questions and Answers] malick186:
dude remember i told you about my wifi not working after creating the backup of my a500, I decided to flash the stock boot.img with recovery.img also using the flash tool, and now its working fine.

The purpose of mine mentioning this is that those files really worked for me.:D

In my opinion your problem should be easily solved by flashing the stock recovery.img bcoz u messed with this only by flashing anothers mobile recovery. :victory:

I just wish i can upload the whole backup of my A500 for you so you can get back ROM in working condition but I can't bcoz I have a slow internet speed. :crying:
[General Questions and Answers] xuphere:
Great.. Good to know atleast someone is back in action. Would be great if you could guide me on Flashing the Boot and Stock Recovery. i checked my device status. My Boot Loader is UNKNOWN and Radio has no path.. probabaly that is the reason my Sim cards are not being detected and due to Boot i cant get in my recovery mode.
[General Questions and Answers] malick186:
Since i got the backup so i finally decided to mess up with the recovery. Just flashed Noir A20 Recovery on A500 using mobile uncle tool and BANG it doesn't work. All what I am getting is white screen while entering the recovery mode. I tried reverting back to stock recovery.img using Mobile Uncle tools but no vain. Just going to try it twice than will flash it using SP flash tool if it fails! :D Stay tuned! :highfive:

Dude Finally I flashed the stock recovery.img using the sp flash tool. it has become as your. I lost my stock recovery also and Unable to get back, i flashed it usning the Mobile Uncle tools but no vain.... :crying: :crying: :crying:

But still able to boot up normally and both sim working properly!

I think we had to work on our stock recovery.img or we are flashing it in wrong manner. Or there may be a chance I extracted it in wrong way. Searching the XDA Forum for possible answers and waiting for a more senior member to help us in this case! :rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] xuphere:
Malik Sb, I am sorry to hear about you loosing the Stock Recovery. I also took the backup, just in case... but now I am stuck at exactly the same condition where you are. Additionally i tried flashing G520 Huwawaii recovery.img, which took away my Sim card Detection too. Now the screen has gone blank. After alot of research and deleting files from the device Internal memory and SD card, I downloaded an app called Discovery something, its a turkish app. It downloaded the Original Recovery for me, I then flashed it using MobileUncle and now i am back to the White Recovery screen, which automatically restarts and boots my phone, but I still done have any luck with my Sim cards. going to Qmobile Service Centre to try luck.
[General Questions and Answers] xuphere:
Also downloaded and app called Nandroid Manager to flash my backup, but its doesnt detect any backup file in my device. I have copied the backup ile in both the Internal and the Ext memory, but still no luck.

Beware your warranty will be void! last time i mistakenly flashed the Wrong stock ROM on my Noir A5 using the SP flash tool due to which i bricked my device and I was having no option rather than going to service center where they scoldED me and said " WHO HAS GIVEN YOU THE PERMISSION TO MESS UP WITH THE STOCK FIRMWARE OF QMOBILE???" :D :D And i replied "DUDE PLZ FIX IT I WON'T DO IT AGAIN"

and they fix it for free but put a huge stamp on my digicom warranty card written WARRANTY VOID :crying:

---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 PM ----------

Havent used such kinda app. The only best thing to create the nandroid backup is by using a CWM/TWRP recovery bcoz it is easy to restore also and helps you unbricked your device if you are soft bricked! :fingers-crossed:

Unfortunately there is no full backup of our Qmobile Noir A500 through MTK Droid Tool. But xda user hamsam has uploaded his nandroid backup which would of great use for you.

1) Download this nandroid backup by hamsam, from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444089

2) Place the downloaded files in SD card. {Note: Place them in correct folder otherwise CWM wont detect it}

3) Get CWM recovery for A500 and flash it through SP flash tool.

3) Boot into recovery and restore the backup you dowloaded.

4) Reboot. :victory:

Now if you want you can backup your ROM through MTK Droid Tools for the safe side or always kept the nandroid backup in your SDcard and PC aswell. :cool:

Consider the following options:

1) Try to flash stock boot.img through SP flash tool.

2) If still problem remains then try to write original IMEI using MTK Droid Tool

From where else i can get other files of a500 like ebr1, mbr, uboot, preloader etc
[General Questions and Answers] malick186:
Its hard to find such files because only nandroid backup is available uploaded by hamsam. I am having all these files but i can't upload them because of my slow internet.

Regarding your issue i think you only need to flash the boot.img or restoring to stock ROM will solve your problem but if still the problem remains than it means that your IMEI has been damaged. You should probably goto Qmobile service centre for the fix or go to locall mobile shop and ask them about Flashing shop where you can get your problem solved, they will charge you Rs 500-700.

Hi,

I recently got my phone repaired after a broken Charging connector which broke due to a short circuit with water in the charing cable.

Now it got repaired and it charges again, but it sais it keeps charging even if it is not attached.

the Menu and Back buttons aren't working aswell. USB isnt working either, but when i remove the battery it does work suddenly.

Did the battery could be damaged and how bout the menu and back button?

If you got questions, ask me!

I flashed my Phone back to stock so i could be sure it is no problem with the kernel/firmware.

Hope you can help me out!

Whats wrong with the screen, did you drop the phone? If you reflash the stock rom you have with Odin 3.04 and do a data factory reset after the flash and the issue persists it is definately a hardware problem.

The bottom buttons / softkeys ( next to the home button) do not light up anymore and do not work at all. This problem showed up after they have repaired it.

Regards, D
[Java for Android App Development] Dr.Alexander_Breen:
Reserved for Android 4.3 implementation.

So, in 4.3 Google change some IRemoteControlDisplay methods.

1. Implementing IRemoteControlDisplay

Those are:

void setTransportControlFlags(int generationId, int transportControlFlags); is replaced by

void setTransportControlInfo(int generationId, int transportControlFlags, int posCapabilities)

The new parameter - posCapabilities - is indicating whether the RemoteControlClient provides information about playback position. It is a bit mask for those (public, but hidden) constants:

0 - no info about playback position

RemoteControlClient.MEDIA_POSITION_WRITABLE - playback position can be changed

RemoteControlClient.MEDIA_POSITION_READABLE - playback position can be read

void setPlaybackState(int generationId, int state, long stateChangeTimeMs); is replaced by

void setPlaybackState(int generationId, int state, long stateChangeTimeMs, long currentPosMs,float speed);

New parameters:

currentPosMs - current playback position in milliseconds.

If it's positive, it's the current playback position.

Negative values means that the position is unknown.

RemoteControlClient.PLAYBACK_POSITION_INVALID means that position is unknown, like if you're listening to live radio.

RemoteControlClient.PLAYBACK_POSITION_ALWAYS_UNKNOWN - that means the music player doesn't provide current position at all, because it's using legacy API(from 4.2.2).

speed - is the playback speed. 1.0 is normal, 0.5 is slower, 2.0 is 2x faster.

The rest stays the same.

However, the IRemoteControlDisplay implementation in my first post doesn't send this kind of data. So, if you want to send this data to your Handler, you may want to pack it into Bundle and send it as Message.obj.

2. Registering RemoteControlDisplay

Now there are two methods:

registerRemoteControlDisplay(IRemoteControlDisplay rcd)

RemoteControlDisplay registered with this method will NOT receive any artwork bitmaps.

Use this method only if you DO NOT NEED ARTWORK.

registerRemoteControlDisplay(IRemoteControlDisplay rcd, int w, int h)

w and h are maximum width and height of expected artwork bitmap. Use this method if you NEED ARTWORK.

3. Multiple RemoteControlDisplays

(FOLLOWING TEXT MAY BE NOT WORKING, AS THIS IS ONLY A THEORY BASED FROM STUDYING OF ANDROID SOURCE CODE)

Until API 18 there could be only one active RemoteControlDisplay. So, that means if you register your RCD, and then system decides to do the same, then your RemoteControlDisplay will be unregistered automatically.

However, this is not the case in 4.3, as from API 18 it does support multiple RemoteControlDisplay. So, in theory, you can just fire AudioManager#registerRemoteControlDisplay. Didn't tried that, however.

And, of course, you have to compile with Android 4.3 library.
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
Really cool guide. :good:

Thank you. :)
[Java for Android App Development] Dr.Alexander_Breen:
Thanks! I just hope it will have the desired effect and Google will release RemoteControlDisplay API to public, 'cause, you know, now I made it public, there's no reason to hide it now. Now I only need it to be featured on the main page...

How about making it sticky or something?
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
I voted for it. ;)

The sticky: Contact a mod and if it is relevant to the majority of the users, it will be made sticky.
