[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droid_<3er:
Did you deplete the battery completely?

Any SBF lower than your current BL level will yield only a black screen. Try a 3.4.2_179 sbf from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordan/list.php it should be BL4/5, if that doesn't work, flash DFP-125 from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php (i remember it to be either BL5 or 6).

If that doesn't work then the boy's probably flashed a BL7 sbf. I'm not sure if charging works when in BL mode, so be careful. So you can't get to bootmenu at all?

Pretty sure those custom SBFs that you tried used to work but don't work for everyone anymore.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpookyAwol:
Thanks for that, Ill try those sbf's.

Unsure of the battery level, it is possibly depleted. Its not the newest of batteries.

It wont charge via usb even when off?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droid_<3er:
It may but may not. That's why one should always make sure that the battery is charged before flashing.
[HTC One X] SouthernGeorge:
I have an AT&T HTC One X that charges fine, but I cannot sync it with the computer.

I've uninstalled and deleted all the old HTC Drivers, I installed the HTC Sync Manager, and still no luck.

When I try to resolve the conflict, I go to Harware info and I get USB\UNKNOWN.

When it connects to the computer, it just starts charging, and thats it.

I have also tried multiple cables, and all the USB ports on my computer.

I've read around on the other threads, and still haven't found a solution that works.

My current theory would be to replace the USB Port on the phone, but I dont want to modify any hardware if its a software issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

-Thanks

I currently have a htc one from AT&T with cid: 11111111 and I was wondering how would I get it back to stock?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I assume you have S-Off since you were able to change your CID to SuperCID. In that case you can just run any RUU. If you want RUUs, you can find them here:

http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=M7

I believe the AT&T variant is: RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_US_1.26.502.12_Radio_4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_318450_signed_2.exe

Hey Guys i wanted to try the latest pac-rom but could anyone tell me...

does the microphone work when u plug in ur earpiece ?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunjcool:
Yeah it works perfectly !!! But which version of PAC do you want to flash ??

I am using the ver. With android 4.2.2 which is a stable version !! Don't know about the night lies....
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xTaeYeon:
is tahta the latest one or is there another which is running on 4.3
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunjcool:
There are many nighty builds of the PAC ROM which give your phone android 4.3 version !! You can get them from here -http://pacman.basketbuild.com/index.php?dir=main/p3100/nightly/ .
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xTaeYeon:
The Nightly Version isnt stable right...could u give me the link to the rom u currrently using and the instruction pls..as im quite new to flashing custom rom
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunjcool:
Yeah i agree , there are many bugs in the nightly so i immediately switched back to the stable version . :)

Requirements : a rooted phone with an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery like cwm or twrp .

Read these instructions to the letter :

1)Make a nandroid backup of your android before flashing anything in case you ever brick your device and also make a separate backup of your applications using titanium backup

2) download the .zip file from this link http://pacman.basketbuild.com/index.php?dir=main/p3100/release/ and put it in your sd card. This is the .zip file for your rom. (If you have any other device than the p3100 then put that device's name in the link instead of p3100.)

3) then download the latest gapps version from here goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip and put it in your SD card. This is for the google apps .

4) open the custom recovery you have on your phone.

5) there, click on the wipe data /reset button and then the wipe cache button

6) click on the install zip from sd card button. There select the .zip file for the pac rom.

7) then install the latest gapps version by the same method as above.

8) after all this press the reboot now button .

Now you got the PAC rom giving you android v4.2 on your galaxy tab 2.

ENJOY and press thanks if i helped you ...
[Verizon LG G2] WACOMalt:
Hi all. I have obtained a modded version of the Mobile Hotspot provisioning for Verizon. This should let you use hotspot without paying VZW for the feature that is free to any non-VZW rom users..

TO CLEAR UP ANY CONFUSION: I am NOT the original developer of this mod. I was directly contacted by the modder who wished to remain anonymous due to the potentially grey legal area of a mod such as this.

Suffice to say that I am not stealing credit, and that I am posting it specifically to act as a shield to the original dev, as per their request. If I need to give a name to avoid flak, then I'll just remove the post rather than break my promise.

UPDATE: The mods are OK with this posrt for now, unless anything happens. So for now it's staying up.

Anywho. Download the file, backup and remove HotspotProvision.apk and HotspotProvision.odex from /system/app/ And then drag in this copy of the apk. Put it's permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.

You should now be able to set up your mobile hotspot.

I am posting this from my tethered computer :)

HotspotProvision.apk (98 KB)

Note that I DID NOT CREATE THIS.

If this for some reason is not allowed on here, please let me know and/or delete the post.
[Verizon LG G2] timsterzzz:
Works like a charm, thanks.

I used root explorer. Renamed files to hotspotprovision.old and hotspotprovisiono.old. Copied in the the apk file, set permissions. About to go on a road trip and this was much needed.
[Verizon LG G2] beddachedda:
Hooray!
[Verizon LG G2] Namtaru:
Followed OP directions to a T

When I click on Mobile Hotspot I get an error.

EDIT: Ignore me, I had the Verizon Mobile Hotspot apk frozen :o
[Verizon LG G2] WACOMalt:
Did you make sure to remove the original apk AND odex?

did you change the permissions?

are you on the OTA? (so was I)

Im not sure why this wouldn't work for you.
[Verizon LG G2] beddachedda:
I do not have the OTA and it worked just fine for me, for reference.
[Verizon LG G2] Damasterjj:
do i need root or superuser?
[Verizon LG G2] timsterzzz:
You need both, because you have to modify system files.
[Verizon LG G2] Damasterjj:
will VZ know I am using the default app?
[Verizon LG G2] WACOMalt:
highly doubted. Worst case scenario is it wont work and you get a charge for the tethering fee. But that isn't the case. If you're worried, wait for AOSP of some flavor with built in tethering
[Verizon LG G2] cheami:

Here's the Mobile Hotspot apk and odex, from the stock rom posted by scrosler. Unzip this, then copy them both to /system/app, and reboot. You might need to set permissions? notsure
[Verizon LG G2] Lesser Version:
Nice....Thank you for posting this. OP post instructions were perfect. The one thing I am noticing about all these mods is that the OP are telling people to delete these original files, when all you have to do is rename them if you don't want to back them up or are nervous about deleting them. Again, thank you!!

Any chance that the original creator would interested in creating a working version of this for the latest kitkat leak for VZW?

Thanks for posting BTW!!!
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
I was able to get the HotspotProvision.apk installed to /system/app with -rw-r--r-- permissions and it allows me to enable hotspot without asking for provisioning. I just need to test with another device to see if it actually works.

I'm initially able to turn Mobile Hotspot on but never get the hotspot to show up on my network connections and any attempt to change hotspot settings, etc. causes error dialog 'settings stopped'.

So I can't get it to work on 24A OTA.
[Verizon LG G2] mademan420:
And you are running the VZW kitkat leak?
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
See updated post.

Does anybody know if there is a way to change some of the settings for the wifi? I want to be able to manually change the channel the wifi is broadcasting on. Having some interference issues with nearby stuff.
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
I couldn't get the modded HotspotProvision.apk so I thought I would investigate the possibility of doing a database settings manual modification using the SQLite editor, this was useful for me on my Droid X and Bionics.

See this thread for reference: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2668453

I downloaded the latest SQLite Editor and granted root permissions but I can't access any db settings without having the editor freeze or throw up an "unknown error (code 14): Could not open database."

Any idea why the KitKat version of SQLite can't access the apps database settings? Wondering if some things changed relative to application database security permissions or something similar. Just wondering if anyone has tried using SQLite on G2 KitKat yet to modify system app settings.
[Verizon LG G2] tkuligowski:
Wish I knew how to help with this. If hotspot won't work. KitKat update is a no go for me.
[Verizon LG G2] IamPro:
Same here :crying:

Going on trip and its a must :(
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
I'm researching some of the other mods used on other KitKat devices to see if I can come up with an approach that will work. It may be that the HotspotProvision.apk needs to be modified again given the KitKat changes to work.
[Verizon LG G2] heffzilla:
The moto x mod is a no go fyi
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
I can get the database to open, just need direction on what to change. There's nothing listed as entitlement or provisioning that I could find. Either in the app itself or in settings storage where it was on the moto devices.
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
Yes, I have looked around for any signs of familiar or promising looking properties/fields myself and so far come up empty. I think we will need to get info from someone on 24A who will activate Mobile Hotspot upgrade through VZW and see if there is a database change that can be used. Additionally it will be helpful to look at the last source changes to the original HotspotProvision.apk to garner more info on potential new modifications to consider trying on 24A OTA.
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
Understood, but over my head.
[Verizon LG G2] tkuligowski:
I wonder if doing a bounty on this would encourage a Dev to find a solution for us people who are hanging onto our unlimited data and tethering with a death grip. I'm waiting until the official OTA, but if I can't use kit Kat on my G2 because of no tethering....I may actually shed a tear.
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
Once all the furor dies down a bit, someone will crack it I'm sure. But right now all the big guns have some new vs980 kit Kat kernel source to explore.
[Verizon LG G2] chrisbo444:
Pdanet will work with Bluetooth tethering, but it requires client end software to be installed on the computer your tethering to. So if your tethering to an android tablet or something then your out of luck.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Asking for a friend who is on rooted stock with the mobile hotspot hack: is there anything that he needs to do to accept the OTA with regard to root and the hotspot hack? Is there a way to reset everything before the OTA, or can he just accept the OTA when it comes around and it'll install no problem?
[Verizon LG G2] toopty:
He should have backed up his original HotspotProvision.apk and HotspotProvision.odex files or renamed the file extension to .bak before he applied the mod. If not someone posted the original files early on in the thread. He should be able to download those and replace them.

He will need to restore the original files before he runs the OTA or it will probably fail.
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
And as of right now if he takes the OTA there is no known hack or mod to enable mobile hotspot. So if it is a very to have it then he should stick with JB for now.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Thanks. He has those files and will probably wait until a hack/mod is found for the 24A update. Any info about updating if he's rooted on 12B, or will we have to wait for the official OTA to see how that will work?
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
If he's only rooted and has made no other modifications, then he'll succeed with either method, the manual one or the official ota.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Okay. Will root be lost? Sorry for all the questions. I've never take a non-Nexus OTA, so I'm not much help to him.
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
If he used ioroot25 to root, then it will survive the manual update. The previous ioroot exploits aren't really for kit Kat so root might get lost if he used anything less than ioroot25. As far as the official ota goes, no one can say.

He can't have installed a custom recovery either, that will cause a fail with either method.
[Verizon LG G2] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Okay. No custom recovery. Just rooted a few months ago and did the provisioning hack.
[Verizon LG G2] mademan420:
Check under optional section for custom recovery instructions for 24a. I havent tried it yet since I really dont have a need to flash a custom ROM or kernel yet, but I'm sure that day will come;)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51481837&postcount=1
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
Oh I know, what I'm saying is that you can't update to 24a by either method and have your custom recovery intact. You have to be bone stock to update, but now you can load a custom recovery after the fact.
[Verizon LG G2] mademan420:

Hi guys,

I attempted my due diligence and couldn't find a fix browsing the forums. I have the Verizon LG G2 (VS98012B). I'm rooted. I downloaded and replaced the stock .apk and .odex from system/apps based on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2456338[2]

I set the permissions as instructed.

When I attempt to turn on the mobile hotspot I get the following error: "Unfotunatey, com.lge.mobilehotspot.ui has stopped".

There were a few posts scattered here and there about a similar issue but I was unable to find a resolution.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks, DL
[Verizon LG G2] Enter The Nexus:
do you have custom recovery? if so, there's a flashable zip located a few pages back.
[Verizon LG G2] skay:
We're all in the same boat until one of us discovers a hack/mod for 24A. I've been trying to read up on other working hacks for Kitkat but tried a couple and no luck so far. It may well take a more disciplined rev engineering approach to get it working.

[Verizon LG G2] driftlogic:
Hi thanks for the additional information, but I am still having issues.

I used the Root Browser app to remove HotspotProvision.apk and HotspotProvision.odex (renamed them to .bak).

I downloaded the modified .apk and placed them in system/apps with appropriate permissions and rebooted.

Launching mobile hotspot and enabling (on/off) gets me the same "Sorry! Unfortunately, .com.lge.mobilehotspot.ui has stopped".

I tried changing the network name/password from the configuration as indicated by the thread but when toggling the on/off (in the top right of the screen) I get the same error.

Do I have a better shot of getting this to work through a custom ROM? Not sure why it's not functioning. Also because I removed the original .odex is there something I need to be replacing it with?

Thanks,

DL
[Verizon LG G2] Jdella681:
I've gotten the same issue. Basically after you get the force close start the app again and you'll see that the switch is grayed out. Go to the configuration settings and change your network id or password by a letter and hit save, the hotspot should start afterwards. I've basically made two network names to go back and forth on each time I need to use the hotspot cuz it will fc each time and you'll need to change the network settings each time. It's not too much of a hassle really but you'll get used to it.
[Verizon LG G2] dajmanjt:
Exactly what I do. I have one letter I change each time I start tethering. The error message WILL happen every time this solution is simply a temporary fix that works until someone finds I permanent solution :)
[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:
There's a permanent fix, but the dev who found it, and found a way to install this leak in the first place, just got banned from xda.
[Verizon LG G2] driftlogic:
I fixed the issue by going to settings>application manager. I found the Provision app which was under ALL and clicked uninstall updates. I rebooted, working now :laugh:!!

[Verizon LG G2] garywojdan81:

[Verizon LG G2] dajmanjt:
Same here no updates under provision... as expected. I take it as sarcasm as well.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
I was wondering the same thing...

If all it takes is the hotspot provision apk to fix the issue, then the solution should be pretty obvious by now.
[Verizon LG G2] dajmanjt:
I imported the provision and hotspot apks from 12b in my search for the solution and it failed epically. Hotspot disappeared and wouldn't show up. Provisioning remained broken.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
That's not what I was referring to, not specifically anyway. You can import them, but from somewhere else...hint hint :good:
[Verizon LG G2] NyPlaya513:
i will assume you are referring to the now apparent "limited time available" method
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
I mean, you can extract them from the dev's rom who just recently got banned (which, in my opinion, is one of the most ridiculous things I have seen happen on xda).

I'm assuming he's giving people time to get the files downloaded before he completely removes them, I'm also assuming he won't mind if those files are used as stand-alone files since he didn't immediately remove his Rom/files.
[Verizon LG G2] driftlogic:
no not sarcasm at all. somewhere around page 10 there was someone who posted the same thing and had the similar issue i did. i literally uninstalled the updates and i no longer got the .com.lg. error.
[Verizon LG G2] NyPlaya513:
yea thats what I thought, but going off the statement of another user who has been in talks with him, those files wont be available much longer....hence the time sensitive nature of the availability
