Nah, I find the 1.40 ROM just as fast. It's alot more stable too.

The BlueAngel hates today plugins. the less the better. I have SPB pocketplus 3.0. It's good and fast, but the close function always messes up and disagrees with media player.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IamTyler12:
Hey guys,

I just tried putting a custom rom on my phone for the first time, and it ended up a disaster.

My phone will no longer boot past the "Google" screen. For what it is worth, I can still access fastboot mode...

I tried to root it simply to put Android 4.3 on my GSM Galaxy Nexus, but evidently did something wrong. I was using Samsung Galaxy Nexus Toolkit... the phone is still unlocked.

If anyone could point my in the right direction, or explain if it is possible to fix, I'd appericate it. Not worried about 4.3 anymore, just want to get the phone usable again.

Is this possible to fix, or have I managed to brick the device?

Thanks for any help,

Tyler

Try flashing the new boot loader. I had this issue before.

Just flash the factory image. This is nothing serious. Here's a video:

What do you mean by bypass activation?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Casen:
He wants to know how to get to the device without activating a Sim card in it.

It used to be tapping in the four corners starting bottom left, then top left, top right then bottom right.

I don't know if that still works though.

Have you tried getting as far as you could then mashing the home button and hoping?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
O it asks do you want to activate it as a WiFi only device now at least that's what it did for me on my gs4 the other day.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emzee.mc:
Nope :( I sure hope someone is able to suggest a way soon!
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelordofdarkness:
try this way

try to turn it on without a sim card then you should be able to skip the activation step (this is how you skip it on the droid dna)
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emzee.mc:
tried that earlier and that didn't work. it still asks for a sim card.

try casen's way but the phone (must be flat on a table or it wont work)

---------- Post added at 01:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

btw it top left then top right then bottom right then bottom left ( keep trying it) Or you can just keep hitting "activate" and the back button over and over again until the activation app crashes

Can't you try to insert any other gsm sim card? These phones are supposedly unlocked, even in the united states
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_u_n:
I turned the phone in the landscape mode and started tapping the four corners beginning with the left bottom corner (so, that would be the top left corner in the normal portrait mode.

Then I kept tapping clockwise several times. Nothing happened.

Then I put the phone in the normal/ portrait mode and started tapping the corners. After few passes, the screen did change from the English (US/ UK) screen to something else (I can't remember now).

I already had a GSM SIM from local provider which did not work earlier.

Now, it is working.

BTW: I did a FXZ firmware install just prior to the activation bypass trick. So, I am not sure what worked for me.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanagadeepan:
It must be the FXZ firmware, that has really done the trick imho.. Esp flashing normal firmware over employee edition...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgtiii:
Dude, that's how you do it, or else flash flashable files thru recovery. I suggest you figure out why ADB is not working - correct drivers installed, correct SDK files, change usb cables, try another USB port
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alibalter:
dude i installed correct of everything. i tried it on adb on recovery it says me at command prompt protocol failure :(
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redbull123:
You can also use a USB-OTG cable and flash drive in recovery.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgtiii:
I'm just saying, your issue is getting ADB to work, not how to add files to phone while in recovery. Search the forums on ADB issues, it's tricky getting it to work on Windows 8 especially, but there are guides in these forums. You either push apk's to your phone thru ADB, flash them thru recovery, or download them from the Play Store/net. There is no magical way my friend, so my advice is to research and figure out why ADB isn't working, and your problem will be solved.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alibalter:
i got it adb push is ok. its worked. i pushed it to device. look dude i formatted sd card , data cache everything of phone on the recovery. now i'm trying to get system back. Now i pushed ViperOne.zip to device but when i click to choose zip from sd card section and select viperone.zip it says me thats :

Now what must i do ****. :/
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgtiii:
Don't get testy, I'm trying to help lol! Ok, glad you got ADB up and running, that's a good thing! You never really mentioned what state your phone is in, or how it got that way?

Since its a rom, have you thought about or tried ADB sideloading? Just thinking about possibilities

Which ViperOne file are you trying to install? Version 2.1 full rom I assume?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgtiii:
Lol, I am not sure what its about, because you never describe what state your phone is in, or how it got that way. At first, I assumed you were just trying to push apk's to your phone, then I understood it was a rom, which made me think you must of wiped your sd card partition or something, for which ADB push would work.

Ok, so why did you push the rom to your sd card, what was the sequence of events? What viper file are you trying to run? It's on your sd card now, right?

And you're right, I linked the wrong thread, I apologize, here's sideload dude

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsutton:
In summary (due to limited/slow internet access via wifi)

* Phone is a stock Samsung Galaxy S2 - v4.1.2 (UK Three network stock ROM)

* I'm from the UK and GPS works fine over there.

* I'm in Europe for holiday and GPS does not work at all.

Changes so far:

- Changed SIM card

- Added new APN, which includes this line for APN Type, which is default,supl,mms,agps and while Roaming Data works fine, GPS is not connecting at all (e.g. Google Maps, Co-Pilot, etc).

Using an app called GPS Test - it CAN find sats (up to 5 or 6 different sats) but NEVER get a fix at all.

Used an app called Fasterfix and set the server to Europe (I have root) - still no luck.

It CAN find a fix (well sort of, location is incorrect but is close by) if I enabled WiFi from our hotel. But useless when I'm out and about.

What else can I try to resolve this as I will need to use GPS in the next few days time (driving using satnav on my phone)

I have tried to do a search here but the hotel's wifi is pretty crappy/slow. :/

I'd be grateful if anyone could help me to resolve this.

Many thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinrus123:
Flash a new rom!

-Root the phone via CF-Root or the App "Framaroot" from XDA , then install CWM through ROM Manager.

-Then download the ROM.zip you want and install it in CWM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsutton:
Thanks for the reply, but in case you've missed it, I am in Europe... I cannot risk doing it in case I brick my ONLY phone that I will need for the rest of my holiday. And I got sucky wifi access to download anything anyway.

BTW, seems overkill to do this... does it REALLY work? If so, why does it work when my stock ROM does not work? I'm just curious...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinrus123:
Oh , sorry.

Try to make a backup via GO Backup (best backup without root acess).

Then make a factory reset and restore the backup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxMedia:
me too past two day.

I tried many rom: CM 10.1, 10.2, stock 4.1.2...but get same problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
OK. Here's what's always worked for me so far as GPS is concerned, obviously YMMV & there's no flashing/risk of bricking your phone involved.

If you don't already have GPS Status, get it from Google Play. Go outside to a place that has good line of sight in all directions. Turn mobile data & GPS on & fire up GPS Status. Go into tools/manage A-GPS state & reset A-GPS XTRA Data. Then go back into the same setting & download new ephemeris data (which is essentially tables of satellite positions/where they'll be & when), then close GPS Status. Turn off mobile data & put the phone into flight mode (leave GPS on), then fire up GPS Status again. Wait for as long as it takes (normally not more than 5 minutes) for it to get a good/accurate fix (down to a few mtrs/with plenty of satellites).

Once I do this, it's always enabled me to get accurate/fast fixes for anything up to a couple of weeks until the ephemeris data gets old, in which case you repeat. Obviously if you have network connectivity this will help getting a fix, particularly in 'crowded' urban areas (cities/lots of buildings/poor LOS).

Edit - Also, if the above doesn't work, try this. I understand your reluctance so far as flashing anything goes, but you either want your GPS to work or you don't. Yes, it should 'just work', but there's lots of things in the world that should 'just happen' & they don't for whatever reason. This is how it goes with smartphones. The GPS on the SGS2 is particularly notorious for issues that simply can't be resolved easily for some people.

Flashing another rom or kernel may/may not work, if the GPS drivers are messed up, doing so will give you fresh drivers & may fix the problem if that's what's causing it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bds120:
So I just got a International Note 2 from a friend who was in Germany. I see its a N7100 and stated to not work on LTE. That really kills me. I wanted it bad. So now I am stuck with a issue...can I get Tmo 4g lte on this any way possible?

Can I flash the T889 factory image over this phone which would get me the tmobile factory. Would that enable it. I mean the phone has to have the radio inside to work on the LTE right but you just have to get to it some way. Or is it really a hardware adjustment that I cannot do anything about?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ayo234:
I believe that the n7100 only supports hspa on tmobile. Not lte.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
The baseband hardware in the N7100 is significantly different from the one in the T889/I317/N7105 variants. (Intel vs Qualcomm)

Don't bother with the T-Mobile USA images, they won't work on the N7100 without some modifications. Unless you use Wi-Fi calling, I'd say you're better off with international versions anyway.

Hello to all,

Point me in the right direction xda? I have an htc one gpe. I found instructions to root and unlock and will proceed eventually. But the question is if this is the appropriate forum for roms for my gpe. I'm interested in installing paranoid android. But will it or any other rom by the m7 version work on gpe? If it's not a t-mobile or att or sprint thread, then m7 should be compatible is what i'm thinking.

I am sorry for being that guy but how do I return my HTC One back to factory/stock? I really did search but all I saw was rooted stock ROMs.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] justflorin:
I think there is a ruu lurking about somewhere that is full on stock software wise, but as for s-off or boot splash from a custom recovery I don't know if it'll change either of those...at least that was my concern and would love to know for sure if someone more knowledgeable in this area responds.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] shrinkhead:
did you backup your phone before flashing a custom ROM as that be the way to go. if you want to relock the bootloader you can do it but no way to set it back to its original state as far as I know as it will show relocked or something. the how to section here has all the info
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Night_Slayer:
I'm not too sure but I did it this way I believe. Can't really remember . Download the RUU file , if your are s-off and super Cid, then you have to change the Cid back to the orginal Cid. Once that is completed go into fastboot and use the commands to run the RUU. The RUU should take away the custom recovery and root. You will still be s-off and there is a guide to returning to back s-on but make sure that you do it after RUU or else it will brick I believe. After your s-on relock boot loader with the command and then re run RUU and you should be just like out if the box ..here's a link to RUUhttp://rootzwiki.com/topic/41226-leakruu-12650212/

[General Questions and Answers] King-V:
I would like to become a developer. Obviously, that means learning code, but which one? Also, I don't have a PC with Linux OS, so will that be any problem? What tutorials or ebooks or stuff like that do you recommend to start me learning?
[General Questions and Answers] coolsandie:
Yes, that's right. To become a developer means learning to write code and apply those while creating a software.

Question on which one? is completely upto you because you need to know what are you aiming for. If you're looking for web application development, you may have to study any languages like PHP, DotNet, Java - J2EE/EJB etc.

If you're looking for Android application development, first step is to study Java, because its the main language used for programming apps. Then you can move over to Tutorials on Android development, and it will be easy. If its iOS app/ Mac specific app development, Objective C it is.

Not having PC with Linux OS won't be any problem, because you can do these in Windows platforms or in a Mac.

Tutorials = Google my friend. It has almost everything in the universe. Also in Youtube, you get the video tutorials.

Some which I could recommend is, for Java Oracle docs is good and "Java - The Complete reference" by Herbert Schildt is a good book too. For Android, you can find all resources in the App development forums.
