[Sony Tablet S] SirStorm:
I have spent a week sifting this forum and was unsuccessful in answering my own question. Please guide me as I am a NOOB to Android. Or straight up tell me I gotta send this in to Sony.

I bought this Xperia Tablet 2 in May. LOVE it! Made no Root mods, totally stock. Updated to 4.1.1 - OK! Updated to 4.1.1 release2 - issues.

Within a week, the tablet would shut off in the middle of Paper Monster and web browsing. I would restart and everything was fine, for a while. Then it shut down and would not boot back up. Sticks on SONY.

Tried soft reset, no luck. Tried Recovery (very hard to get into, fails 80% of the time to enter) no luck, still sticks on SONY.

So I don't have access to put the USB Debugging feature on, and its not rooted so 6.5 All-in-One can't help me (at least not in my current NOOB status)

I did purchase a brand new SGPT122 to replace this one, but have not set it up in hopes maybe someone could tell me how to copy the OS or RECOVERY off of it and install it on my SGPT121 to revive it.

Whats my next step?
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Option 1 send to Sony tell them issues and ask for downgrade in firmware. They will probably say it is not possible.

Option 2 root and use AiO tool to install rescure back-door then you can install JB r1. You can then unroot and have it as stock.
[Sony Tablet S] SirStorm:
OK I have been attempting this all evening. I cannot get my computer to recognize the tablet. That is because I cannot enable USB Debugging because I cannot get past the SONY screen, right? Or is there another way to root?

It appears I can only access the Recovery Screen, and it does not like the version of OTA.zip I have. I have not found Recovery ROMS for this tablet.

I really appreciate your time, Thank You.
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Adb should still be available in recovery wether usb debugging is on or not. Is it asking for a driver at all?

If you had the latest update installed then. You wont be able to install anything and it will need to go to sony.
[Sony Tablet S] DudemeisterAT:
Check your device manager to see if the tablet driver is properly installed, if not, install it. This might help.
[Sony Tablet S] SirStorm:
Thanks for the help! I called Sony today, they said since the computer doesn't recognize the device and it will only go into recovery sometimes the pad needs service. (I know OF COURSE) But is does stand to reason since I have plugged into multiple PCs and no recognition. They are sending a box for me. I just hope my 32Gb version doesn't tank also.

[General Questions and Answers] coolsandie:
First of all, congrats that you are more of a researcher. That's a good thing because in the internet, answers to every questions are available. You just need to do the right search in the right way. :good:

Games not working on a device maybe because of various reasons such as the developer has made it limited to work on certain devices or processor architecture etc. If Play Store link shows not supported, then it needs more research and modifications to make it work, which is like 50-50.

And, as a learner you are good to start with XDA-University. It has countless tutorials in that section.

Good Luck and welcome to XDA!
[General Questions and Answers] th3f33:
thank you for the link and reply, i am actually suited best in researching, i learned every bit and pieces i know in building websites, programming web apps and system with php, even overclocking and advanced troubleshooting in researching the internet, anyways i have another question to ask,

what is nandroid?

is it an android device with nand storage? (I.E. Nand - internet - external - usb storage)

thank you again
[General Questions and Answers] coolsandie:
Nandroid is referred to as Nandroid Backup (Backup being taken of ROMs) in ClockWorkMod recovery (Custom Recovery) for the most part.
[General Questions and Answers] th3f33:
i see, thank you again, as of now, i am still downloading cygwin packages, do you have an idea how big is the total file size of it?

and another thing, I have used romdump, and got the following..

boot.img (13mb+)

checksum.md5(265b)

config.gz

recovery.img(32mb)

systeminfo.gz(1.76kb)

system.tar(385MB)

how can these files help me and can i use them for backup?
[General Questions and Answers] coolsandie:
Sorry, no idea about Cygwin.

boot.img is your Kernel, and its needed for modifying the kernel. config.gz is the configuration of your device, and its also used for kernel building. recovery.img is your recovery. system.tar is your system partition which contains all files related to ROM. Yes, you can use these as a backup, as actually you'll get these when you take a nandroid backup in CWM recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] th3f33:
basically, the system.img is the one that is mounted on /system right? and it contains all files related to rom, does it mean that the ROM is like the OS? if i am not mistaken, i had already edited the apps and build.prop in the /system before i had made the system.img. But i have pulled the whole /system folder before i deleted the apps thru adb.

now the recovery.img is the one that have the android with red triangle exclamation point on vol+ power (android system recovery 3e, this is stock right) ? this is what i need to use if i fail on flashing a custom recovery? is that right?

how important is the config.gz?

boot.img is the kernel, should i stay away from the kernel for the time being? or is it better to check the boot.img first?

am i lacking any file for backup or is this enough for backup?

i have installed rom manager but it says it unsupported device. does it mean that i cannot install CWM?

i think i can flash custom rom with rkbatchtool, i had tried it before (custom rom for a different type) and it ended up bricking the device :P
[General Questions and Answers] th3f33:
as of now, i have tried flashing the generic cwm for rockchip which ended in a black screen recovery,

i also tried flashing my recovery.img but it doesnt work, it get flash but nothing works :(

it is still working fine as of now except that it doesnt have a recovery!

i think i had corrupted the recovery partition, cause i used a 1.35 rk flash tool and the memory address was set for rk3066 which is 0x0010000 (i think) and mine was 0x0020000.....

Ok guys, first of all let me say that I've searched a lot, read many information, and now I'm confused regarding some subjects. I came from a Galaxy Nexus, and this is ALL new and a little bit confusing... And before I do something wrong let me ask!

To clarify, can someone answer this questions as simple as possible? Thanks!

1. What's hboot?

2. To update to a new one will I need to have a matching Cid / be s-off?

3. What's the difference between hboot and boot?

3.1. If I flash hboot to boot by mistake, is it possible to recover it?

4. What's a RUU?

5. What are RU's? (maybe testers? What does the RU stand for?)

6. How can I know if some radio is compatible with my country's? I live in Portugal.

7. What's HTC dumlock?

I think for now it's everything :)

Best regards
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
1. The bootloader of the phone

2. Nope, they update automatically via ota updates

3. Boot is the os partition to boot up android, hboot is like the bios of a pc

3.1. Yeah, but if you flash a wrong item to hboot, you're dead

4. Official software by htc to restore the phone to stock firmware/update to new firmware

5. :what:

6. I think the radio compatibility is dependent on your CID/MID

7. http://teamw.in/project/htcdumlock
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwillruletheworld:
5. RU's are Recognized Users and get the new ARHD releases before they are released to the rest of us so they can be tested. They will generally have a banner in their signature that identifies them as an RU.

That's why you have issues with it.Downgrading have different method you should use pit file and check re-partition, you can't downgrade with a stock GB.

Dear developers,

After searching the whole internet and stackoverflow I didn't find the answer to my problem, so I need your help.

Problem

I'm trying to make an app that monitors your headset-jack-plug. To code below shows that i register the broadcast receiver and the Logcat output confirms that. But as soon as I test this app on my HTC Desire Bravo (connected to Eclipse), the onreceive method is never called.

When I replace the action.HEADSET_PLUG by action.ACTION_POWER_DISCONNECTED, the code DOES work. So when I unplug my powercable and plug it in again, my Logcat shows me the JackPlugReceiver_debug_tag.

Hi, sorry for making my first message here with a problem.

I have a Woxter Android TV 200 ("spanish" version of Noontec A9 - RK2918, 512MB RAM and GC800 graphics). This android-PC had 2.3 for default and the company doesn't provide any higher.

So, searching, I found that Noontec A9 is similar and it has a 4.0 ROM . I flashed it with RK Batch Tool without problems, BUT... when I did the root (I did with a .bat and adb), in one step ("enabling emulator hack"), then it rebooted again... It didn't work. When I turn on it, it shows the penguin of Linux and nomore...

It doesn't turn on properly because I can't see it connected to my wifi router. It hasn't any button, only 2 USB, 1 SD Reader, 1 HDMI-out and 1 RGB out.

Please, help me :crying:
