Can you attach the 'Repart_doc.exe' file...

I can't get my device formated....:confused:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] reddi:
its located here: ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/BA_WM5/Tools/Repart_DOC.exe

have you tried to unhide and then unlock with the "-xda3" switch ?

i use SOTI PocketController to remote control my device. it has a "command line" interface included. here you can type dos style commands. execute the unlocker, inclusive -unlock and -xda3 switch.

for example: \programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom.exe -unlock -xda3

this is the most important line.

this time for me work very well, but have reflashed to italian W2K3 Swisscom 1.40, on this rom Program Files are named Programmi like in any other italian rom, just copied (with resco explorer) the entire folder from "programmi" to a new folder created by myself under device root named "program files" and without any change to original link in windows/start menu/extrom tools are not needed :)

for me work on first try with this method, and now have missing megabytes of valuable space :D

all files needed are picked from this thread (except for rom and resco explorer)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] hwpeter:
still not working

I've tried all the method above... but still not working... I've tried a lot of roms but still... any other sugestions?

Hi guys

I tried everything but I just can't get extended rom to be formated.

Maybe someone as a better idea to solve the problem

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] megareyes:
Not sure if its just a issue I am experiencing or does happen to to others. This issue only happen on 4.3 roms let it be cm Roms or gpe Roms. Also I have tried different developer Roms and same issue. The issue that I'm having is GPS randomly stops and locks and is more noticeable when in long trips. This has led me to revert back to any 4.2.2 ROM and all is well. Has anyone else had this issue? I've tried wiping and formating internal drive different restore recoveries such as clockwork mod and twrp and same issue. I feel I don't miss much from 4.2.2 and 4.3 and why I don't mind staying on 4.2.2 but just find it very odd.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] realsis:
Yes ive also expirenced this with 4.3 roms. I also reverted back to the 4.2.2 roms because navagation is important to me. So you are not alone in this experience. Im not sure why this problem occurs however I can confirm it is happening. I do wish I had a resolution to this issue as ive tried many things with out success. Hopefully someone can resolve this issue in the future. hope this helps. Best wishes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TeknoGodz:
Sorry for the necro, but I've been having this problem for a long time as well and cannot figure it out whatsoever.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mralexander006:
I've had this problem on a 4.2.2 ROM as well... after flashing a 4.3 ROM it went away, but I'm on another 4.2.2 ROM now and the GPS is fine. I'm not sure it's related to 4.2.2/4.3 in my experience.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TeknoGodz:
Yea, I've now noticed it happens on both. Quite sparatic. I have no idea what to do about this. Thinking about just getting a new one from tmobile.
[One (M7) Accessories] Hesster:
I like to use my One in landscape mode in my car, but I didn't like the long USB plug sticking out of the right side. I didn't like the way it looked, and it seemed like it would put too much stress on the port. There are a ton of adapters with different male and female ends, but it was tough to find an adapter with both male and female micro USB connections. I found one at last on eBay, and it costs less than $2.50. It's a 5-pin cable, so the phone detects it as a charger connection.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/310712123304

If you're like me and want to use your One in landscape mode with the charging port on the right side, this is the one you need!

Saw this on Android Police and I love it so far. If you used the spen board switcher and it was always finicky with the Samsung keyboard, you won't have that problem with this. Plus the gestures and such work a lot better. Editing a sentence works a lot better too since you can scroll through your whole input stream.

Enjoy!

i just can't get the keyboard to change automatically. i read somewhere that the at&t phones have this issue! I installed CM S Pen Add-on and Notebuddy also. Set default to AOSP keyboard and alternative to MyScript Stylus. In SPenBoard Switcher, the setting is fixed. the custom apps launch with notebuddy, but I don't want MyScript Stylus keyboard options, I need the keyboard to change automatically based on my stylus status. I am just about to give up and manually switch keyboards! But this app is great though.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] l0lz0rss:
So I was on a CM10.2 nightly and flashed an updated nightly using the CM updater. I've updated CM nightlies several times but last night, I left it on my table and flashed it without monitoring it or anything and when I came back to get it hours later, it wouldn't turn on anymore. I've pressed the power button several times and even tried getting into the bootloader with vol up+vol down+power and nothing seems to work. I plugged it into my computer (Windows 8) and my computer gives the beeping notification that something plugs in but the drive isn't detected under "My Computer" or "Device Manager" or anything. Any suggestions on how to restore it back to life? I don't want this to turn into a $200+ paper weight :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] meekrawb:
Bootloader is volume down and power. You may need to plug it into the wall and let it charge first.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Syphen5:
So I am running an interesting setup now where I am running a rooted and unlocked CM10.2 nightly with the GSM bit flipped and an AIO Wireless sim card. There are a few quirks that I have come across and trying to look for answers.

First:

I've had some difficulty getting my APN settings to save

Fixed using a build.prop change a few reboots.

Second:

I have an issue where my DTMF (touch tone) doesn't seem to be registering. Normally this wouldn't be a problem except for when I needed to call my insurance and they have an automated system. I don't know if this is a rom specific thing, an AIO Wireless specific thing or something else with the combination on my phone.

Third:

Since I've been running on GSM, the signal strength for my phone doesn't seem to be displaying properly. The phone works (and now I get internet), but the signal indicator doesn't seem to update. I use Lllama for some things and I see no new tower locations here either.

Fourth:

In Settings -> About phone -> Status -> My phone number is displaying as "Unknown." Not that big of a deal but I thought it was an interesting thing and wanted to see if it may be tied to any of the other issues I'm having.

If anyone has any insight on how to fix these things, that would be great appreciated and hopefully this can help any other people who may be having the same issues as me.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j27h:
I'm using my Razr in GSM mode with CM10.2 on it. I'm in Italy, so maybe not everything I've done will work in other countries.

What did you changed to make the phone work in GSM mode? I just changed the following in the build.prop file (plus adding the APN):

"telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1" from 1 to 0

"telephony.rilV7NeedCDMALTEPhone=true" from true to false

"ro.telephony.gsm-routes-us-smsc=1" from 1 to 0

And everything works fine.

I've also tried to use the GSM fix found in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2446527, but is giving to me inconsistent results. Sometimes the phone works, sometimes drops the line, swithc from 3g to 2g, stops data download... So I flasher back a clean 10.2 ROM and added back only my previous changes.

By the way: in Settings -> About phone -> Status -> My phone number is displaying as "Unknown" too!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Syphen5:
That totally worked! Now I have everything working properly. Thank you very much. Also, I figured out why in Status my phone number is unknown.

Open up the Phone app

Open the Settings menu

GSM call settings

Additional settings

Set your number in "My phone number"
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j27h:
Well... that's great: two solutions in two posts! Your phone is working and mine is displaing my number correctly... Hope these posts will be useful for someone else too!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phantomsniper773:
Sorry for somewhat thread-hijacking, but you seem to know GSM stuff so I thought I'd ask, do you have any problems with making phone calls? I'm in the US on AT&T and when I make a call, if there is any noise coming in from the other person's microphone (either their voice or background noise),my voice starts breaking up on their end. I can hear them fine though.

I've tried several build.prop edits, such as changing persist.audio.handset.mic to 'analog' instead of 'digital', which makes my voice louder to others, but doesn't help with the audio breaking up. Do you know of any build.prop tweaks that might fix the issue? Thanks!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j27h:
Hi Phantomsniper! Sorry for the late reply... to be honest I'm pretty new to the Android world (less than a year, coming from a Nokia 3310!). Maybe I've a similar issue: I can hear people fine (after cleaning the speaker), but on the other side they always say that my voice sounds too low (but not broken up for what I know). I'll try to investigate if my phone behaves as yours and if there's something we can do!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phantomsniper773:
Yeah, that's pretty much it. Few things I noticed since my last post:

1) If I use headphones with a mic to talk, everything sounds perfect on both ends

2) When testing the bug, if I mute the other person's phone (so I can't hear what they say) then everything I say into the Razr M is clear on their phone

3) Speakerphone works fine

4) Sound problems occur with a T-Mobile SIM and perhaps a Verizon SIM too (I couldn't really test much with the VZW SIM because it was my friend's and she was in a rush so I just tried it for a minute)

I think basically, if any sound is coming through from the earpiece (the one that is right where the "MOTOROLA" logo is), then the microphone that is under the Verizon logo turns off or gets quiet or something. That would explain why speakerphone and using a headphone's mic works fine.

I don't want to get too off-topic here though. Perhaps we should talk over PMs if we find anything new.

Did it a couple of days ago, actually... don't know if you've it done yourself yet, [MENTION=4515755]sambistt[/MENTION], but it's not as tricky as you might think. It just requires 'nerves of steel'... (actually I think 'b**ls of steel' would be a more apposite description!:)).

The blob.log makes for interesting reading (if you like that sort of thing:))...

Anyway, theoretically (short of a natural catastrophe), my Nexus 7 is now 'brick-proof'.

Although for tolerably obvious reasons, I'm not inclined to want to test the generated 'blob'... as this would necessitate the deliberate 'bricking' of my N7.

But I can now rest a little easier, knowing that if my bootloader does 'bite the dust', I have a good chance of recovering my Nexus 7.

Rgrds,

Okay so this thing is driving me nuts! I have the A500 and it is stuck in APX mode. A buddy gave me this saying it was bricked. I would love to get it up and going! I have been from forum to forum and going nuts here. I really though I was going to be able to get it with the timmydean tool. But when I enter my cpuID its one number too long. CPU ID: 0x37C6205446015D7. I got this number from doing some trick on ubutnu. I have my SKB as well. Can anyone help me out. I don't know much at all about tablets and flashing roms on them. I used to have a Windows Mobile phone back in the day and did a great deal of making kitchens for it but this seems like a lot more steps. Is there a trick with the cupid on timmydeans tool? Thank you in advance!

What tool are u using?

Do you know if the tab was on HC or ICS?
[Acer Iconia A500] beamerguy0:
alright :) I believe what happened is my friend had ICS, but while updating something happened and that's when he said it was bricked. So when I was reading some of the many millions of forums I saw some talked about using Timmy deans tool to go back to stock HC and start over. So that's what I was trying to do.
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
okidoki! got it:)

For timmys tool to work you need USB debuggign enabled on your tab, so if you cannot boot to ensure that this is enabled, you need to try another tool!!!

the babsector.rar works when tdv4 won't...it will reset the partitions on your tab, flash the unlocked bootloader and cwm. If there is an error please post the output....You will also need to flash an ICS or JB rom

Why my steeled bumpered car looks better than it's polycarbonate (Modern) rival? Is plastic not a result of our own disposable society?

Plastics don't really show craftsmanship, aluminium and glass do. Even if you realise they were made with the same engenering and automation.

Ofcourse plastics have their advantages, too bad it often feels and looks much cheaper...
