[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] programatix:
I totally agree with krazy_about_technology. From my experience with HTC devices, it never update the Sense UI that came with the phone. The most that is usually done is to upgrade the OS. In the past HTC used this method of marketing to keep people to buy its newer phones because it releases dozen of phones a year.

Samsung on the other hand almost always updates (with new UI and new features) the older phone after the new one comes out. It's a long and dull wait but at least we get it after the wait.

Yeah I don't miss my old sensation at all. I'll miss this phone if I ever part ways with it though.

Why i cant update my note 2 through keis?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronron_s:
I do also have a problem with the upgrade, I have the GT-N7105 with 4.1.2 and when I try to update over the air i get a fault message "Firmware upgrade failed, try using Kies." I have tried via Kies also but when doing that I get a strange behaviour from Kies, the program downloads the software and then the program just close itself on the computer. I waited for about half an hour but nothing more happened and no further information on the phone either, just like nothing happened.

Of course the phone was connected to the computer and identified by Kies, which also informed of the new firmware available for the device.

Any ideas of what to do?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lfernandeshack:
I have this smartbox to connect to my tv: http://www.1-life.eu/?portfolio=1life-tvsmart with android 4.2.2

I followed al the instructions in this site (it is in portuguese): http://www.androidpt.com/index.php?/topic/46149-root-1life-tv-smart-mini-pc-android/

I've sucessfuly root it but now I have an issue, the processor instead of being at 1.5Ghz is locked at 1.2 Ghz and it is recognized by CPUZ as a 1.2 AM8726 ARM Cortex-A9. If I use cpufrills I can put the speed at 1.5 but he still fixes at 1.2,is there any solution? I dont have a backup of the original system because the recovery that loads from the SD card to do root is too primitive.

the box is the same as this: http://i01.i.aliimg.com/photo/v0/707528699/Coltech_CM_Q7_new_arrival_external_wifi.jpg
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheArc:
I don't think its a problem. Maybe you've just been created with. If you haven't done anything to the thing itself it shouldn't lower its CPU frequency.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lfernandeshack:
The problem is that to do root I have to flash the hole system from another box, but the specs of the another are exactly the same and the hardware too. My is working without lag so working at 1.2 or 1.5 is almost the same because is to see movies and online tv with xbmc.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lfernandeshack:
And if i use the update from another box with the same specs? Could it works or Will be a brick?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lfernandeshack:
I think I've found why it sets to 1.2 instead of 1.5. I think it is a governor bug, every time I reboot it or when I trie to change the governor to performance it returns to conservative, is there a way too edit the governor?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
It's an exe file, so just put your phone in fastboot mode, connect to pc, and open the RUU program. Make sure screen saver and hibernation are turned off, and no other programs are running.

I seem to be unable to flash any recovery images using

fastboot flash recovery IMG

. When I put the tablet into fastboot mode, attach it to the computer using a microusb adapter and run the command, I get the following error:

sending 'recovery' (9158 KB)...
FAILED (data transfer failure (Protocol error))
finished. total time: 0.057s

If I repeat the command, any number of times, I get another error:

sending 'RECOVERY' (9158 KB)...
FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor))
finished. total time: 0.000s

I've tried this with TWRP MultiROM and ClockworkMod Recovery. Why do I get this error? How can I troubleshoot/solve this in order to flash recovery images?

Device: (original) Google Nexus 7 16GB WIFI

Android Version: 4.3 (stock)

Kernel Version: 3.1.10-g1e8b3d8

PC Software: Ubuntu 13.04 with android-tools-fastboot 4.2.2+git20130218-3ubuntu3~raring

The full steps I took to unlock bootloader and attempt flashing the recovery (from a factory reset):

Put the device into developer mode by tapping the 'Build number' in 'Settings->About tablet' several times.

Enabled USB debugging in 'Settings->Developer options'.

Connected the USB cable to a laptop running Ubuntu 13.04 with android-tools-adb and android-tools-fastboot installed.

Ran

adb devices

which showed the device

adb reboot bootloader

>> rebooted into the fastboot bootloader

sudo fastboot devices

>> showed the device

sudo fastboot oem unlock

>> bootloader successfully unlocked

sudo fastboot continue

>> booted the device

Repeated the steps to enable developer mode and USB debugging

Downloaded kernel_kexec_430.zip, multirom_v12_n7-signed.zip, TWRP_multirom_n7_20130727.img to the current folder (and verified the md5sums)

Copied TWRP_multirom_n7_20130727.img to recovery.img

Copied kernel_kexec_430.zip, multirom_v12_n7-signed.zip, recovery.img to Nexus 7/Internal Storage root directory using nautilus

Ran

adb reboot bootloader

which put the device into fastboot mode

Ran

sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

change usb cable and try different ports...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyteq:
It seems this is a problem with the usb cable and usb ports. Fastboot seems very flaky and intemittently works on different USB ports.

Now for a story about how I softbricked and eventually unbricked the tablet.

By changing around USB ports on my laptop, I eventually managed to flash TWRP recovery. In the process of messing around, I managed to delete the os from the tablet, so I tried to reinstall the stock os.

I ran the flash-all script and it started to install. Unfortunately, fastboot decided to fail once it had erased the partitions and was starting to re-flash them. So I was left with a tablet with no os, no recovery and only a bootloader that wouldn't communicate properly with fastboot on my laptop!

I decided to try a different computer. The only one I had available was a very old Windows XP desktop with 256MB RAM and USB 1.0 ports (!). I managed to download the Android SDK on this incredibly slow machine and also installed device drivers using the Nexus 7 toolkit. I couldn't get fastboot to work for ages but eventually, after plugging the tablet out and in and repeating the

fastboot devices

command, I managed to get the device to show up.

I then managed to reflash TWRP onto the recovery partition. Fastboot was still very dodgy but seemed a bit more reliable at sending the data across than it had been on my laptop. Once I had flashed TWRP, I put the latest Cyanogenmod ROM onto a usb stick, connected it via OTG and managed to install it.

So now I have a working tablet with TWRP and Cyanogenmod and I finally have proper root permissions including the ability to use usb-otg which was one of the main reasons for rooting in the first place. :D I'm going to give MultiROM a miss because I really don't trust fastboot / my usb cable / my usb ports to properly flash images.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholi2789:
I there, I am not at all a novice to Android but I have only owned two Nexus devices. The other two devices that I have had and modded were the Vzw Galaxy s4 and s3. I've been modding for quite a while now and am quite familiar with Android software modifying and using adb. That being said quick semi topic related question: How do I know what Bootloader my Nexus 7 has already? I just sent it in to repair at Asus and got it back compeletely wiped running stock (sent it in unlocked running Rootbox). I have previously flashed to the most recent bootloader, but I'm not sure if it still has it. I don't know what all they did to it.

Is there a way to find out exactly what bootloader it is running? Maybe there is an adb shell command I can run to find out or something?

I have searched but I couldn't find a definitive answer. And I didn't want to start a whole new thread just to ask this simple question.

Thanks for your time.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wlodarix:
Hello guys. To begin with, sorry for my English (I'm from Poland).

I've got a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note II. I have had jelly bean 4.1.2 (I think) stock system and today I changed it to Cyanogenmod 10.2. Everything is good now but there is a problem with storage on phone's memory. I did a full backup and all wipes using CWM recovery. After I installed new system, I have all my old contacts, but I don't have my music. Furthermore system says that there is only 2,14 GB of free space, although all media, applications, pictures, videos and other blablabla takes only around 100 MB. What should I do?

Thanks for any help :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
You're the 2nd poster in 24 hours whom I am 99% certain did not wipe as much as your think you did.

Odds are you did NOT wipe /data/media. So ALL you media files are still there. Now Android4.2+ use a different partition for the internal SD card than TouchWiz 4.1, which matters as the TWiz ineternalSD partition is NOT accessible from inside AOSP. There's a flashable zip to move your media across partitions somewhere here on XDA. Otherwise flash back to TouchWiz, move all your stuff over to an external SD card, and then flash back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wlodarix:
Ok. I've got root and indeed there are all my old files in /data/media

But can I just remove them all from this folder (because I don't need them) or it won't give me free space on phone's storage?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Presuming nothing else is going on....If you really want then delete them and you'll get your storage space back. Otherwise just copy them over to your externalSD card or your new internalSD partition.

Coming from TouchWiz, probably 2GB of your memory is eaten up by your Nandroid backup of your OS...I'm guessing you chose to save everything internal, and nothing on your external SD card.

I'm not sure what, exactly, you're trying to achieve. Are you saying the background in 'portrait' mode should look like pic1, but when you rotate the phone it should look like pic3, not pic2?

Not sure how you would do it - I would try making pic1 wider (put 1/2 a screen-width of plain background each side) and see how it scales then.

FOR GSM :

After dialing the *#*#4636#*#* and choosing "GSM ONLY" you should do this with adb by opening a command screen.

> adb shell

# su

# sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db 'update secure set value="3" where name="preferred_network_mode"'

# reboot
