Thank you my friend, will try hard reset, don't have anything inside at the moment. Do I have to add my google account before trying the update after the reset?:cyclops:
[Nexus 7 General] zcucurullo:
Hard reset did not do the trick, still on 4.2.2 i'll give it a few more days and will try to connect to different internet providers just to see. Thank you all!!!
[Nexus 7 General] _-..zKiLLA..-_:
Oops
[Nexus 7 General] d0nat0:
by changing the internet provider will your device get priority for OTA update even if you are in the same country? or does having a different internet provider change your device information for OTA update?

i thought it does by device firmware information, as long as your online, you will eventually get firmware OTA update?

i'm confused, not that it matters. just curious how OTA updates are actually pushed.
[Nexus 7 General] AuroEdge:
FYI installing the factory image from Google does not install over adb, it installs over fastboot
[Nexus 7 General] lekhwani:
Just change your vpn to some US location and then try 1 and 2 as given in op. (preferably 2.)
[Nexus 7 General] zcucurullo:
I saw somewhere that if google can't find your device you wont get the update. That's why I wanted to try out using internet from different carriers. Thank you all for your help on the issue.
[Nexus 7 General] zcucurullo:
Fastboot adb, etc... Just want to get OTA. Don't want to push manually to device by downloading the update and connecting via USB and using fastboot command. Dont want to unlock bootloader also. So the problem is OTA. Thank you!!!
[Nexus 7 General] zcucurullo:
SOLVED, SOLVED, SOLVED.

JAJAJAJAJA, you rule, just changed my VPN to a free Canadian one, and the nexus 7 is downloading the Update as I type. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksimilie:
I decided to pull the trigger and update from 3.6X to 3.98. I went into ClockWork and formatted dalvick and did a factory reset, I also Formatted Data/Media ... I don't know why, mostly because it was an option.

I rebooted thinking it would bring be back to a fresh PA3.6 but it just gets stuck at the Google Logo. I'm not sure how to proceed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
can you get back into recovery. If so get back into recovery and re-flash rom. In the case that you have formatted your complete phone you will have to adb a rom onto it and start from scratch..

Also there are a few threads with others who have done this in error that you should google before posting questions. It would probably of been quite helpful

Try here Also this is a Question and should be in Q&A for better exposure - ask a mod to move it for you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fluffasaur:
Been getting frustrated over the past day.

Currently am up and running on a backup of Hyperdrive RLS 8.1, but I am afraid to reboot because for all of last night, any backup or clean install of any ROM I flashed would either

1) boot up the first time, but any subsequent reboots would result in stuck at the Samsung Custom Lock screen

2) not boot up at all, stuck at the Samsung Custom Lock screen

When I get stuck at the Custom Lock screen, I do a battery pull and then attempt to reboot into recovery. However, trying to boot recovery would not work (phone reboots itself after briefly showing "booting recovery" every time) until I plugged in the charger and tried to boot recovery (not sure if just coincidence?). Currently running TWRP 2.5.0.2

At this point, the recovery asks for a password (I have never set a password, don't know why this happens?). This prevents me from factory resetting (gives me an operation failed) because I need to "decrypt data" or something along those lines, using a password which I am sure I have never set. The internal storage is apparently unable to mount without decrypting data using a password..?

I found that in the WIPE menu I can perform the FORMAT DATA action which is successful and fixes the decrypt data problem, and I am able to factory reset and then restore a working ROM or install a new one (I tried CleanROM 1.6 with patch to 1.6.5 since it was on my sdcard).

This brings me to this position at the current moment. After formatting and factory resetting, I have done the following with such results:

1) Restoring my STOCK, ROOTED TWRP backup from before my install of Hyperdrive 8.1. Booted up fine, but a reboot gave the same results of stuck at the custom lock screen

2) Installing CleanROM, booted up fine the first time, but got stuck on the first reboot at the first bootup screen (it changed it to the original

Samsung Galaxy S4" instead of the custom lock?). I went back to recovery and went through the same process (decrypt by formatting data, factory reset, restore/install new rom)

3) Restoring my Hyperdrive 8.1 TWRP backup (first backup of the ROM while it was apparently running fine, reboots were normal and no problems yet). I am currently running this right now but have not attempted a reboot because I do not have the time for the next few days to mess around with my phone.

Summary: Stuck at initial boot screen (Custom Lock or Samsung Galaxy S4), TWRP 2.5.0.2 asks for password for decrypt?? & cannot factory reset, able to format data which allows factory reset after, restored Hyperdrive 8.1 backup, currently afraid to reboot in fear of getting stuck again.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I am considering ODIN a stock image and completely starting over, but that will have to wait until the weekend.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] AznInertia:
Will there be a possibility of rooting the HTC One (or S-OFF)? From my understanding there will be a locked bootloader for this phone...:crying:

Vent: I'm sorry but I think this launch is the second worst launch (the worst being Galaxy Nexus on Verizon). If you look at the Verizon webpage there is NO indication of the HTC One whatsoever other than the email signup. People at Verizon are clueless (especially sales reps) as to release dates/inventory/colors/etc but the opposite is true for all the Droid phones which is plastered everywhere AND they haven't really released the phone until 8/27 (shipping date). If you ask sales people questions about any of the Droids its like they suddenly know everything about it and nothing about the HTC One. Its weird, if you were a carrier wouldn't you push ALL phones especially highly rated phones like the HTC One/iPhone/Galaxy S4. I'm not saying the Droid's aren't bad its just that...*sigh*

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparklekitty123:
My power button broke about a month ago, which wasn't a big deal unless my phone turned off as I would not be able to turn it back on. I took it to a local shop to have it fixed but they could not, saying that a soldering point was missing on the power button. So now my phone is off and as good as a paper weight. Now, I can send it off to Samsung and probably have it replaced, but they will wipe everything when they get the phone. I have things on my phone that are very important to me (text messages, notes) and if there is any way possible I would like to get these back.

Does anyone know of a way to turn the phone on without the power button? I was looking into this and someone mentioned maybe I could use a jig and Odin to force a reboot. I don't know if this will clear any data. Plus I don't really know how to use either of those but I am currently reading up on them to make myself familiar.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RBarnett09:
The thing is, getting into Odin mode requires the power button. Your best bet is getting it repaired.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparklekitty123:
But if I have a jig do I still need the power button?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Isn't the power button just a switch, if so you could just open the phone and use a paper clip to turn it on, transfer your files and then get it repaired.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sparklekitty123:
I've opened the phone up and tried messing with the button but it still wont turn on. There's a little white square that sticks out that the button pushed into to turn on the phone. I'm not sure if this square is the piece that is broken as I'm not sure what a functional one looks like. The white square doesn't push down for me, and I'm not sure if it is supposed to or not.

Let's see if we can get this going.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
He needs to battery pull

When my phone bricked like this twice (both times from thermal protect shutdown)

I had to pull the battery, wait 30 seconds and reconnect it. I posted a guide awhile back with some pics.

best of luck, quote or pm me with questions, it seems scary but its really easy.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
Okay, so i'm the actual user with the TCP brick. I have a screwdriver set, but i don't havea torx bit that small, and honestly i don't really want to take it apart unless it is a MUST. Would letting the battery drain do the same?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
I must of lucked out then, my phone was in this state after running benchmarks back to back. I kept plugging and unplugging from wall charger and pressing power button. After many times it finally showed charging animation and eventually booted.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
I've heard that it sometimes comes back to life if you leave it alone or get it reasonably cold.

When it happened to me I left it unplugged for 24hrs, and got nothing but the looping LG cycle. Left it plugged in looping for 24hrs and no go.

Left it off the majority of the day before I got tools, got off work, shopped, got home, still cycled, so I figured screw it at that point, and went for the battery pull. Powered up instantly after.

I'm not sure just how long it would take to drain, considering it would be doing nearly nothing in the off state. Then again I've heard of people somehow charging it like that for a few hours and having it work also. Good luck regardless though.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
From that, it makes me want to put the damn thing in the freezer lol. But that risks moisture damage. Anyway, do you know what actually causes this to happen? i mean, it was supposed to just be a Build.prop tweak. After every other soft brick, i could let it sit, go into recovery, and just restore from a back-up. But letting go of that, Could i just plug it in, and leave it in download mode for a few day/week whatever until the battery dies? Failing that, how would i recharge my phone afterward?

UPDATE:Checked my screwdriver set, have t4,5,6. If all else fails, ill go for the pull.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Yeah no freezer, you can get it relatively cold just placing it in the stream of cold air from your house or car A/C for 3-5 minutes.

I do not know what causes it to happen, now to be clear, it's the brick where it will not power on at all unless usb is plugged in correct?

Also, I think it actually charges in download/fastboot mode. I may be mistaken though.

The phone should start charging itself afterward with little issue, if you successfully drained it anyway. (again I remember reading a few posts awhile back about people who accidentally ran there phones to 0 battery and ALSO got the weird loop syndrome.) I think it was MysteryEmotionz that mentioned that you could leave it for a few hours in fastboot/download and it would be ok to start charging again.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
Yes, thats correct. Powers on only via USB. Well, i'll try everything you mentioned, and use battery pull as a last resort. I'm 15 and my dad would be pissed if i took it apart and didn't know what i was doing lol. Now, saying that, please don't view me as clueless, i am relatively knowledgeable, but iv'e never seen anything like this before, and it' really the first time iv'e gotten a problem i can't fix. Also, it's my first android with a built-in battery, kind of a nuisance. Anyway, i'm going off topic. Thank the community for the help, and i'll you know what happens c:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Just go slow, reaaaaly slow when pulling the back cover off, and be sure NOT to use your finger to pry the battery connector up, so it doesn't come off the board. Also, do find a TORX for the pesky bottom screws, so you don't end up stripping them. Best of luck, you'll be fine.

If you're really hesitant to try, just take it back to where you got it if you have insurance, considering you're wiped at this point..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
I have a Torx T-5 that seems to fit perfectly. I may yet pull the battery, i'm just afraid to crack the black glass. I'm usually okay at assembly/disassembly, but this device seems rather more fragile than what i'm used to.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Yeah I was crazy paranoid the first time, just keep working around and shim something under the tabs you do get to pop open.

Second time I did it in like 2 minutes start to finish. I do remember the first time that you can hear the glass as you stress it, it is more flexible than you think but surface area is gonna be key when you start prying. WORST worse case, you break it, and get a cheap replacement on ebay or ignore it outright and get a body glove case for it.

I gave up on using it without a case, the glass is pretty but its way too slick, that phone can slide off of a 1 degree slope I swear.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
No kidding, i got the bodyglove case with the pink skin from AT&T store, Because my first lgog cracked from a 3-inch fall. I kid you not, it cracked the upper left corner, touch didn't work at all. Had to get a replacement. Anyway, i think i'll wait until later tonight. I always perform better when im tired; i'm a night person. Anyway, i got ya. Shim the tabs, be wary of the sound of the glass, and DO NOT use your finger for the battery connector. Thank you.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
Got the cover off, but the camera sensor came up and won't go back down. Any advice?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Came up how far? I'd have to look at the service manual to check, I believe the camera is connected by a ribbon cable so it might be just a little stubborn. in Picture#4 from my thread you can see the camera came up a little but I don't even remember worrying about it.

Can you post a pic if its really bad?

[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
The only reason it came up so far is because it stuck to the case as it was lifted. But i got it down :) it was simple, unscrew all the little philips, lift up on the Plastic cover, jimmy the camera and boom. i'm gonna put it back together and let you know what happens.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Sounds good, glad its working again. The only thing that made it do this to me was thermal, and I was purposely overclocked to the wall doing benches at the time. When the option is available, in for example most of houstonn's ROM's / Kernels, I set the thermal throttle to max at 60 degrees in trickster mod, and in my experience, dvhexer's kernels behave really well in regards to automatic throttle based on thermal.

Editing a build prop setting itself should have made zero change until a reboot anyway. Were you crazy undervolted maybe? I'm just curious cause I'm always trying to avoid having to take the phone apart if I don't have to.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] XFATE56:
Nope! Completely fresh install of beanstalk. Well not completely, i did install Gapps and do all the updates via wifi. But first thing i do on new ROM is check out the settings. but as soon as i checked that TCP option, it just bricked! Anyway, I appreciate your help, saved my ass. I think i'll stay away from beanstalk for now. Kernel maybe not supported? Or did i just get unlucky. in any case, thanks. 5star advice sir.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] filippino:
anyone has the same problem ?

When I'm using TomTom 5 as navigator and i receive or make a phone call, the navigator stops everything and when a finished my phone call everything comes back again.

Why ?????
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Grappa:
I have the same and I thought it was normal beacuse the bt can handle only one device, isn't it?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] filippino:
No

You are wrong because usually bluetooth allow only 1 connection per time of different kind!

For example 1 voice connection to the carkit and 1 data connection to the gps!

Before I had a Nokia 6630 and everything worked perfectly !

Post your appreciated comments!

Bye
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jackleung:
Re: No

In fact, I did manage to get 3 connections (GPS, Headset, ActiveSync) at one time w/o problem.

To answer yr original question, my Tomtom 5.0 works fine on phone call.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] filippino:
Help

So can you help me to solve my problem ?

I have an IMate Jam with Rom 1.11 italian,

what's your version ??

Maybe you have updated the bluetooth stack ?

Thanx !
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jackleung:
BTW, I am using GPS Gate all the time so that I can open 2 GPS software (TT and Routis 2). Maybe that's another reason I didn't have problem.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Grill Oven:
I have the same problem.

I am using i TREK GPS and Jabra 800.

When im navigating, and in the middle I receieve a phone call, the GPS connection hangs even after the phone call ends.

I usualy make a SR after that and continue navigating.

What is the problem??

Thank you
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] BRV:
Same story is with my MDA T-Mobile Compact:

EVERY (I stress it) EVERY time I use it with Jabra BT-800 and GPS receiver BT-338 when OziExplorerCE is on for a short time suddenly Ozi hangs. I try to restart it - no way, when BT option is touched, Magician says: NO BT HARDWARE ON THIS DEVICE INSTALLED. Only SR (sometimes even only HR) helps.

Tried to use JAM_Bluetooth_No_Hardware_Patch-1.CAB - it does not help.

Is there a solution? GURU, wake up, please!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Emerland:
Same sad story. This time it's about PocketGPSMoscow software, GPS BT-338 and SBH-100 BT Hand-free.

Every time there is an incoming call, the device looses BT connection to the GPS module.

Turning BT on and off does help,but doesn't bring much comfort. I hope this is not the BT-338 problem.

Should anyone have any bright ideas on how to find a solution to the problem, many will be very greateful.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] jackleung:
It's strange. I really doesn't have any problem w/ my Imate Jam (flashed w/ O2 Traditional Chinese 1.11 rom) using my TomTom BT GPS w/ Sony HBH 600 BT headset.

Maybe you guys can try the following to see if it works. (for rom of 1.11 or later)

1. pair yr GPS w/ the pda.

2. In BT Com port setting, make sure both incoming port for Com4 and outgoing port for Com5 is check

3. Install GPSGate, set input port as Com5 and create virtual port Com6

4. Uninstall TomTom BT GPS driver since U doesn't need it at all

5. In TomTom GPS setting, choose "Other GPS" and choose "Franson VSerial Com6"

Let me know if this works 4 U or not.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] zoom21:
Anybody try to upgrate/downgrate the rom version? One man in GSM service said, that BT doesn't work propriety with LEng Keybord install to 1.11 version rom. M.b. with TomTom thу same problem?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ThEScReW:
If you ask me : the problem isn't with your BT but with the phone.

I only use an GPS BT receiver and if somebody calls me, i pick up the phone and also then the GPS disconnects until the call ended ...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] BRV:
I've got 1.12 and I'm sure GSM is not involved - BT is the dead fish.

Every time I have a BT connection with Jabra and BT-338 simultaneously, EVEN when there is NO incoming calls, BT + GPS hang the Magician.

Unfortunately I do not remember if this bug happens when Only BT-338 is connected. Will check and report.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Ianonymous:
I've rommed my phone finally to CM 10.1 the latest official version by _CZ for some reason it takes ages to send a picture message if any at all some times it doesn't even send . I can get them perfectly fine I just can't send them out in a timely manner..... I've been connected to wifi since the start of rom . I've used it in the past and tried using it off wifi and it sends just like alway it can take up to 30 minutes or more .... is there a solution to this help would be greatly appreciated.

I followed the proper steps of flashing down to a fine line of detail . I'm not exactly sure what else to do ... some people suggested checking my APN but I'm not savvy in such ways . Anywhom Help is apprecated.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
You're using the XT897C version right? Not XT897? The CDMA version?

I sent some patches loooong ago back when CM10.1 first came out for the Q, which fixes MMS issues. Unless something changed/broke recently, this should still work.

I'm a little confused on what you've tried. So you send with wifi on, fails. You send with wifi off...? What happens?

You said it takes 30 minutes - does that mean it sends eventually?

Are you using any third party apps to send MMS, or just the built-in "Messaging" app?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Ianonymous:
Yes on Wifi it never sends at all it stays on the sending ....

On Regular Mobile Data It is a hit or miss and rarely sends .

And as far as I know I am on the XT897 I have a sprint cdma not a Gsm phone .

Edit- I'm using build in Messaging application .
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Can you check the download that you flashed? It should still be on your SD card, or perhaps on your computer still? Make sure it's XT897C, not XT897.

I'm trying to think of how I tested it - I thought I tried with wifi enabled, and it was no issue. So you've gotten *some* messages to send, but very few? What happens, the app just says "Sending..." and they never send?

If you are running the wrong build, that would do it - Sprint's MMS is really finnicky and needs special settings for it to work properly.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Ianonymous:
Its the XT897C as far as I know I just flashed it today . In the past it sent but it took some time . Today I have not been able to send at all its been stuck on sending . I've tried sending messages to my wife. Picture messages. To test it out . And it has not sent one at all on wifi or on mobile data .

On the receiving end I've gotten mms . No problem so far my friend sends I get .
