[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Damocles66:
Thanks for the help Stunts! I try using KFFirstAide and it gets to *Daemon started successfully* and then nothing. Any operation where KFFirstAide accesses the Kindle - it just goes to a blinking cursor. Nothing ever pops up on the Kindle itself - it just stays on the Fastboot screen.

I've tried both the repair function for the KF HD 7" and going in through diagnostics to attempt to repair.

If I use the factory cable, it goes straight to Fastboot. If I use a normal cable, I cannot enable any ADB functions as the device just continues to loop the orange Kindle Fire boot screen. I am unable when connected via the factory cable to regularly

The system can not find the file specified. The kindle is not responding to simple fastboot commands.

Product: Tate-PVT-08

Below that it says if you see output above this note then fastboot is enabled and you can safely proceed with a restore.

So, I reinstalled these drivers http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072359&nocache=1 - as it looks like drivers are the problem. Both before and after installation, on my device manager instead of Kindle Fire, it reads Samsung Phone and below that Android ADB Interface with a yellow triangle and comment "Device can not start" (Code 10).

So, if this Kindle were a murder scene, I'm guessing there'd be a big pool of blood somewhere around this driver issue (assuming I'm not about to be clunked on the head by some other issue and my dead body heaved into a closet to spill out onto my wife later).

I see Kindle Fire Utility has a fix for this, but some of the KFU posts have said it's for 1st gen only, so I'm a little far down the rabbit hole. Will keep reading and see if I can make some sense of this.

Sorry to be so dense, I feel like a Friday the 13th victim who refuses to die and just runs around the forest screaming with a rake jammed through my shoulder. I do realize it's poor form :eek:

Update: resolved the driver error via this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2306561&page=2

Now back into the KFFirstAide and let's see what happens. Results of KF First Aide are the same (although the driver on the device manager is back to reading Kindle Fire and ADB interface which is working properly)

GODS BE PRAISED!!!! Got back in via the KF HD SRT. Rolling along now. Thanks again Stunts. Really appreciate your time.

(Hilarious end note - along came an OTA update and wiped all my good work. Back to square one *Shakes fist at God*)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
Hello.

It's been a while but I got my Kindle and ready to work with it.

I'll try first aid after I charge it.

Just want to clarify few steps.

I have a "clear" recently re-installed Windows 7. What I did was installing drivers from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072359&nocache=1 then steps 1-9 from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2096888.

Do I heed QemuRoot? Or it was wrong to do these steps before ever trying to find any adb devices?

My kindle doesn't show in the list of devices, it still blinks with orange "Kindle Fire" when connected to PC via data cable and shows "Fastboot" logo when connected via fastboot cable.

What should I do now?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
How do I delete my post?

I mean this one, #10.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Wait so is your device showing up in the device manager with an error?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
No, my device isn't showing up in the device manager at all.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
And it is in fastboot? It should show up as a Tate device. Though if it is showing up but without errors but fastboot doesn't detect it I would reinstall the drivers, because I have a similar problem on windows 7. Once its in fastboot use the normal USB cable.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
Yup, first fastboot then normal cable.

My PC doesn't seem to see kindle at all. No new devices appear when plugged neither with fastboot nor data cable. Nada.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Um OK try expanding the USB devices section in the device manager and posting a screenshot, because I'm at a loss, unless you for some reason are plugged into a USB 3.0 port, but even then I thought it would at least show up. If you don't know how to take a screenshot offhand, just hit the print screen button on your keyboard, above or near the del, pg up and such keys, then open paint and hit paste, and save it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
That's how it looks like.

I'm not sure I have any USB 3.0 ports. I tried to plug into 5 different ports - result was the same.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK do me a favor, that one that says USB composite device, open its properties and goto details, and choose hardware id's from the drop down list and either screenshot it or just write em down for me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
There are two IDs.

USB\VID_0E8F&PID_0022&REV_0210

USB\VID_0E8F&PID_0022
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Ah I was completely off, see I recently noticed the kindle installed as a composite device when I was in windows the other day, long story short I thought u might just need to reinstall then drivers, but that is not a kindle vendor Id that I can tell, sounds more likely to be USB speakers or something upon searching Google and getting random drivers that. Try plugging this into another computer, if it still doesn't show up it could be a hardware problem, might be as simple as resoldering some joints idk.

Edit: on another note, before trying to check for a bad connection on the kindles USB plug, try booting linux and seeing if it picks it up, usually an Ubuntu live CD will do the trick, hopefully its not a hardware problem.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValeriaD:
My netbook runs on Ubuntu 12.04 and doesn't see Kindle as well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali7000:
How do you publish free and paid apps on Google play without having to pay the fees? Please don't spam this post with "You cant, you're going to have to pay for it.", Thank You!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GRG13:
Completely free im not sure.but there are some companies(One of them its called EASY INTERNET) that allow you to upload for you an app and they take the money of the advertisements.I don't know if there is any cost.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
Sorry, but...

Unless some user with an acount upload the apps for you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali7000:
Ok but how much is the charge? (to upload it yourself)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
$25usd or something like that. You only need to pay it once, and then you can upload as many apps as you wish (free or paid).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ali7000:
And where can I find that offer?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
Directly with Google. If you wish to sell your apps you need to make some extra steps (for free, as I can remember), more info here, in the section Learn More.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Imprezzion:
Since a while now i've been having wierd issues with my T.

It happens on all ROMs and kernels so it's NOT a ROM issue.

I'm running CM10.1 (Experimental build) now.

Issue #1:

Chrome keeps randomly FC ing or better explained, randomly shuts down and disappears. Kind of like a crash to desktop in windows.

Issue #2:

Clock widgets randomly stop refreshing and will only refresh when touched.

I'm currently using the app ''3d flip clock and weather'' but CM's clock does the same.

Issue #3:

Keyboard randomly minimizes / disappears during typing.

It will not come back by clicking in the text area again, it will automatically come back after a period of time (10 secs to 1 minute) or will come back when closing all apps to homescreen and opening the app i was typing in again.

These all sound like RAM issues to me where for some reason the phone runs out of RAM or something...

Little help please?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Please provide a logcat.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
Yeah I am guessing it is a RAM issue (lack of ram) because my LMT process kept restarting when multi tasking, so I kept losing navigation.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Imprezzion:
Usually when I reboot the phone it's fine for a day or two but then it starts to act up again and the only way to fix it is to reboot the phone.

Maybe I should just start rebooting it every 2 days orso.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jbyersak1015:
Hey guys. This is my first post here. Checked all the troubleshooting threads and did not see this. Have seen the issue similar on other forums and sections, but my situation is a little different.

I have a rooted 16GB S4. I have been using the same wifi connection since August 2nd. The wifi on my phone, computer, TV, and Xbox have all been working this whole time. This afternoon I tried to check something on my computer and had no internet connection, but was using my phone. Thought the issue was my computer. Left. Came home. Computer is connected fine. My phone, my wife's iPhone 4s, TV, and Xbox will not connect to the network at all. So this situation is a bit different as I have been connected for 3 weeks and now wont work. I assume its not my phone because so many other devices dont work either. Not to mention it's both IOS and Android. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks a lot.

My plus is just something small. Yesterday my lock screen blanked out. I have my other lock screen pages, but my page with the date and time and all just randomly went blank and will not come back after reset.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Agent:
If I read everything correctly then you don't have an issue with any of your devices. Chances are it's your wireless router. I would recommend replacing it to see if that fixes the issue. You can always buy one from Best Buy and take it back if that doesn't fix your issue.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that it may be the way your router is configured. (I doubt it's your ISP if something is working but other stuff isn't.) What kind of router do you have?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jbyersak1015:
I think its a netgear. We are living in a downstairs apartment. All my devices now work. It was weird. First nothing was on. Then just the cimputer. We went to sleep and woke up and phones were working but not tv or xbox or computer. Now everything is fine again.... I did send an email to my landlord and ask her to unplug the router for about 30 seconds. She may have done that....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Agent:
I definitely think it's the router. Netgear isn't the best around, and I have found that they do have problems from time to time. If you had access to the router yourself that would be the best way to troubleshoot the issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] FourPointedFreak:
If things were working fine for some time then just started acting wonky, it wasn't anything your devices (S4, iPhone, computer or xbox) could've done, per se. Something had to have changed with the router - not that it's going bad or that it sucks, but something was altered. The smallest changes in networking can make the biggest difference. Don't just buy new devices and throw out the old when an issue arrives.

That's great its working now. For future reference, you should get your own in-apartment WiFi, like "Clear", cheap and works well in most areas, this would narrow down your possibilities of your internet not working properly on your S4 and other devices.

You can only use a sound mod like Purexaudio but you can suggest it in the themes and apps section. But I feel that the one is already quite loud.

Hi,

i have just got my first magician device - the SPV M500 and have a few questions. is it worth updating any of the roms like so many of these posts talk about? although i purchased it on orange and it has all the orange branding i mainly use my o2 sim - should i look at using the o2 xda mini rom? or am i best just sticking with what i have?

also what programms would people most reccomend for the magician devices? as i want to get the most out of it! also is there a better software for backing the phone up than activesync?

thanks and sorry for the stupid questions!

anyone?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] dmmh:
I always say: if it aint broken, dont fix it

I dont follow the rule myself, I like to tweak and patch my device until its to my satisfaction....the default configs are just horrible imo

but if you dont know what yer doing...be carefull with upgrading :)

for software I have a few apps I cant do without:

WebIS Pocket Informant 2005 - a PIM application

phoneMax PhoneAlarm - Advanced profile setup

Wivit SIM Status Switcher - for switching between SIM cards when using a dual SIM adapter

SPB Weather - I like to know the weather...this is a Today screen plugin

SBSH Pocketbreeze - displays your tasks and appointments on the today screen
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] vijay555:
Get some backup software and then you can play to your hearts content.

However, I went from 1.11 to 1.12 without noticing any differences, so I'd concur, don't mess unless you feel you really need to!

Do the bigstorage hack though. And if you're doing that, you might as well rom upgrade at the same time.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Impossible:
I had the same debate over my m500.

I used it for around 3-4 days just how it was supplied to me, to see if it was stable (which it was) the rom that was supplied with my m500 was 1.06 (found in start>settings>system>device info) I have kept this version of the rom, but upgraded the radio rom to 1.13 and also hacked it to give me big storage.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tachi91:
Just curious on other peoples opinion/theory.

So while using my HTC One on AT&T the 3G signal jumps around. I assume its two towers one obviously being farther away and the phone doesn't seem to stick with the one that's closer. So if i force the phone to connect to WCDMA (3G/HSPA) no celluar service works on the device. Eventually I switch it back to 2G and then it starts receiving calls/sms etc. I have been to locations in the area where there are full bars of 3G constantly yet the phone fails to connect properly eventually I give up and switch to 2G at some points the phone drops down to GPRS.

On an international HTC 8X it maintains a strong connection to 3G/H+ using the same simcard. Only thing that has changed is the actual device. I've tried literally all the radios available for the HTC one and all have the same result.

If using a T-Mobile simcard and I go into an area that has been refarmed I pick their 3G/H+ just fine.

So it's not the simcard and its not the phone. I've called AT&T and all they do is make me turn off the phone while they resend the signal from the tower (so they say) then thats when the phones sticks to 3G and functions correctly but eventually it stops working and returns to how it was.

Right now AT&T offers the stronger call/sms coverage while T-Mobile doesn't so I'd rather stick with AT&T even if they suck.

So my question is.

Anyone else experiencing or has had this issue before on the HTC one or another device? If those who have had this was it resolved?

Was it a simple device exchange or were you bumped up the change of tech support eventually reaching some one who knew how to fix the issue or atlease gave more then "Please turn the device on/off, it will fix all your problems"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unknownfame:
Will the CWM backups disappear after a full wipe? Please answer.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
If on your external sd card then no, they won't. Internal sd will be wiped, depending on how you're doing the wipe.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fygaroo:
Mine didn't but they were on the external sd card everything on the internal was gone but external stayed intact.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Striatum_bdr:
It depends on what you call full wipe. On my recovery and generally speaking it is /cache dalvick cache, and /data except the internal sdcard folder. Sometimes it adds system and preload wipe. So your internal card personal data are untouched. With those recoveries the option to wipe internal card completely is explicitly labeled and you can't make a mistake.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] S00T:
When I first bought my Note 8.0, I added my Dropbox account to the Cloud sync under Setting>Personal>Cloud>Contents Sync thinking that it would be kind of cool to have my dropbox contents downloaded on my Note 8.0 without needing to wait for the download when I need them. Since then, I've found out that the Cloud function downloads my stuff into a file called "cloudagent" on my internal SD instead of my external SD and it's not really as useful as what I thought it to be. Plus, I discovered that Dropsync does the job that I want it to do excellently.

So my question is, how can I remove my Dropbox account from the CloudSync? I positively remember adding my Dropbox account manually and it wasn't something that was there automatically after logging into the Dropbox app. Thanks a lot, guys!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] madsquabbles:
You should be ableto unlink the device through dropbox`s settings or go into android settings and remove the dropbox account.

If you get foldersync or dropsync you can sync any folder you want o you sdcard. I think the free dropsync allows one folder.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] S00T:
Yeah I unlinked the device from dropbox's permissions, so at least I know that it's not going to start downloading stuff into my internal SD. Problem is, on my device side of things, now that I've revoked its permission to access my Dropbox, the "space used" section just keeps on loading and loading and when I click on my account, there's a button that says "Sync all" and nothing else. No "remove account" or anything of that sort. It's been like that for a week now and it's finally eating on my nerve.

I got the paid version of Dropsync while it was on sale and it's a great app to use. Anyway, thanks for your time. I guess I'll just bear with that annoying loading until it finally realizes that the reason it can't load anything is because it doesn't have the permission to.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] madsquabbles:
Mine has remove acct at the top of the acct screen. Odd it's not on yours. I running civs rom if that makes a difference.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] eyecon82:
in my s4, it would not only download it, but then delete the file from dropbox...thta was a huge issue for me

go into settings-->cloud and disable both pictures and videos completely

it's a useless function and dropsync is absolutely amazing....i never buy stuf, but I def bought the pro version
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
Now I have 4g now in my neighborhood and now my battery is draining faster. I shut it down lte in settings, but is there a widget I can use so I don't that to go through a bunch of menu steps to turn it on and off?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MikeRowe:
You can use "Power Toggles" from the Play Store. :good:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lreyes:
The power toggle that's built into every ROM for the EVO LTE. Its in the widgets section and just press the data icon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
That one shuts down all data and not just 4g but 3g also. It's not a big deal I can shut down lte and just use 4g when I need to stream or download a big file. I just need to shut down 4g, but thank you.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drumwizard:
I think the best way is to simply go to settings > mobile data > and change the network mode from LTE/CDMA to CDMA only...or turn on ur WiFi and that will help battery life too, cuz I think it like puts the data antenna in like a standy mode to conserve battery.

I haven't noticed any more significant battery drain while on 4g, I believe our phone uses the same antenna for both 3g and 4g. But I could see it possibly draining battery if it is constantly acquiring an LTE signal then losing it shortly there after, repeatidly over and over...

Someone correct if I'm wrong about anything...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
I think you're right. I don't need 4g 99% of the time. I think even when on 4g it uses more than 3g, but maybe it's like you're saying. I did fully charge my phone then went to sleep. The next day phone lost 40% charge only difference was 4g on. I'm going to try 3g tonight, then wifi, then 4g again and see and let everyone know.

Edit: so far most posts accept 4g uses more power. Maybe needed to run lte versus just cdma uses more power so it's not the 4g of it, but more needing to run an extra system. 3g works fine with just cdma on so that's probably why.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drumwizard:
Sounds like a good experiment, also when testing WiFi remember some roms allow the phone to disable WiFi after a time of inactivity, should disable that when you test it...try to even the playing field. Even though Ive read WiFi uses less battery that using data...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] louched1:
If a better solution doesn't show up in this thread, you could definitely pull this off with Tasker.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
Do you mean the task manager. I didn't any apps running that I can stop that would affect anything but I guess apps use data too. I want to do what was mentioned earlier and keep it as level and the same as possible. I'm not so much concerned with the wifi as comparing 3g and 4g.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Tasker. It's an app available in the Play store.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
I don't think Tasker can do this with 4g LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] louched1:
It most certainly can. It's not the perfect solution, but it can definitely do it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
How would you set up that task? You can set up tasks that affect 2g/3g and wimax, but I haven't seen anything for LTE. In fact, I'm almost positive he addressed this on his site, saying it wasn't possible (yet). Did I miss an update?
