I got CWM on it, so now im looking for a rom who doesnt need S-OFF

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2382691

This one doesnt need S-off right?

It says:

Error: device not found

if i try to push the rom, I dont have a connection with my pc. It says: FASTBOOT USB on my phone,

But if i send out: ADB Devices it comes out clear.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b3rx:
go to install zip -> sideload

then do a ./adb sideload rom.zip

and yes that rom doesnt need s-off.

Hey, Just wanted to say thank you I was able to put a different Rom onto my phone and installed it successfully

I get the error: Device not found.

Reinstalled HTC Sync too. Same problem

Tried it on another pc too now, same problem.

Fixed

I fixed it by mounting an usb stick with a rom to it and installing it through Recovery!

Thanks you all !!

Hi,

Just got a new o2 xda mini s, can you guys help me with a few things? ;)

Im trying to set it up with the motorola ht-820, bluetooth headphones, i believe this requires a2dp? Can anyone tell me if this is possible? Ive seen a few hacks around that update the bluetooth on the xda, however cant seem to get these to work!

Many sites claim the xda mini s is compatible? Any ideas?

Cheers,

[General Accessories] seriosbrad:
Recently a new Facebook group appeared in my feed called "Otterbox is a joke". I suspect that it was created by one of my friends that had a bad experience and that he possibly can't afford a new phone or something. He/she is expecting a replacement phone.

The groups admin posted this:

My opinion is that Otterbox and other companies have always and will always only support their product, not the smartphone/device inside their product. They can not predict real world physics for every situation, there are just too many factors to 100% protect a device. It's even in their warranty information when you buy it. These products exist because of consumer worry and they bank on that, it might save a few devices occasionally, but not always.

I have the Otterbox Commuter on my Note II, no issues. For this type of case I still expect the phone to break if dropped since the screen is so large it has a high probability of contacting something. Falling from any distance, onto concrete; the force alone would cause most phones to break, even if it hits the bumper. I would honestly rather have a reduced chance of breaking rather than carrying around a bulky full body case.

Anyways, I would like to know what you guys think about these liabilites. Vote in the poll if you'd like.
[General Accessories] daniel_loft:
As long as there's nowhere written that the case will keep you phone safe no matter what, they shouldn't and they are not liable for how the user cares for his phone. Cases help protecting the phone, not make it fool proof.

And, sorry to tell you this, but IMHO if your friend dropped his phone, then he's not careful enough. If he expects that the company making the case to pay him the value of the phone, then he's a fool*.

Have a nice day!

*pun intended
[General Accessories] seriosbrad:
You don't have to be sorry to tell me that, I completely agree with you.

I restored a working backup. It didn't work. It's stuck on the X logo.

Any things I can do? Flash clean ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matmat07:
I had the same issue on another rom (carbon). They had changed something, so the kernel had to get a special fix to work. Try asking on the aokp thread or forum (can't remember if they got one)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yashade2001:
It seems you flashed wrong kernel or it is not compatible with your current rom.
[General Questions and Answers] __Britain__:
I have a problem with the volume of the sound, what happens is when I use my headphones the gap between sound volume when I press the volume buttons is too high.

When it's low it's fine but as soon as I press the sound key to make it higher it gets very high.

The solution would be to have between these two levels of sound a level I could also select.

I could do that with Volume++ it could add a different scale for my volume, the thing is it's not functioning right on the JB.

Do you know any app that could do just that, change the volume scale and add more options when you change the volume? I don't want a volume booster or equalizer though.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 ATT I337UCUAMDL

Model Number in settings on 4.4 ROM = GT-I9505G

As the title says, I installed dandroid's newest 4.4 ROM from WICKED v5 4.2.2 and lost root. So I attempted to update my CWM Recovery from Odus 1x to the newest using Odin which failed do to write protected I suppose all though others says that doesnt effect their installs.

Where I'm at:

Cannot boot into recovery, says booting recovery the just reboots and enters Dandroid's ROM w/o root.

I'm now lost and have been reading the forums for hours. Currently downloading STOCK Samsung firmware for my device I337UCUAMDL_I337ATTAMDL_ATT.zip

CASUAL failed.

What do I need to do to get back to WORKING custom recovery w/ rooted dandriod 4.4 kitkat rom. Should I use Odin and flash stock rom then motochopper to root and try to reinstall working CWM recovery?

Please advise best course of action. My phone had been working properly with every ROM I tried before update to 4.4 ROM and attempted CWM recovery update (thinking that would fix my root issue). Thanks all!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
If you have a nandroid, and I hope you do, just restore that in your custom recovery. If you don't, then you're going to have to return to stock with odin
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GSXRspike:
Tried motochopper on the phone as it sits and it fails as well.

I have a stock backup but the problem is I no longer have access to any recovery. Guess I'm just gonna have to flash the stock firmware with Odin when its finished downloading and start over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GSXRspike:
Just finished Odin flash back to samsung factory firmware. Phone stuck at att world logo on bootup, still can't access recovery. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
If you flashed Odin successfully you can get into recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GSXRspike:
Finally got into recovery it rebooted 3 times but just holding the req. buttons finally got me in.

Back on factory firmware and rooted w/ cwm recovery all back in place properly worrking.

I would like to use the Dandroid 4.4 ROM with this device. When I install am I going to lose root again and if so, how I do I get it back on this device since the model in the settings is going to change from I337 to I9505G after installing this ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] GSXRspike:
Figured it all out last night, re-flashed Dandroid's latest ROM which still caused me to loose root, then flashed SuperSU 1.51 instead of 1.80 and regained root. All is right in the world now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] enowicki:
Hey, if you dont mind me asking where did you get the 1.51 zip to flash? I'm having a similar issues with same ROM where i lost root but have recovery access.

Thanks

Update: Found the file. Flashed it. Root is back. Have you let market update it automatically? If so did you lose root afterwords?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] blackguy101:
So I have been reading through threads about 4.2 and how the process for some can be a little complicated. Until last night, I had used odin to flash mf3 and then side load mj9. Seeing how this was the fail attempt at 4.3 I have decided that I need to now go after mk2. After some reading, it would appear that I cannot take the ota update. So my question now is this. Is it at all possible to just go into download mode on my phone and simply sideload mk2 onto it? I am scared of reflashing mf3 then sideloading mk2 so I wanted to know if this was an option.

Side question. Since 4.3 now lets us use emojis, I found out that if I were to try to send one to a person through text it would then turn the text message into an mms. Will mk2 fix this so I can send it as a normal message?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] bazookaxxx:
Where did you find the mk2 update file any how?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] brobinson2102:

Did you figure this out? I just put a 4.3 rom on my AT&T S4 and trying to figure out just how to get MK2 on it. I am still on MDL.

Edit: I was just able to flash it via CWM, so I am good to go on a custom 4.3 rom with MK2 now.

I rooted and flashed BeanStalk and mistakenly relied on Kies to backup the SMS history. Now I'm left with a .bk file and having trouble finding an app that can read it. Google search didn't help and forum search is down right now. Any help? :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] EQ811977:
Go back to stock. Kies does not work on custom roms. On stock rom restore your data through Kies. Download Sms Backup&Restore from the playstore and use it to backup your sms. Flash Beanstalk again. Get set up...use the same app to restore your sms. Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tawrus80:
I was afraid of that.

If I back up her current recent texts as well, will I be able to restore both backups and have all of them put together seamlessly? Chronological, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] EQ811977:
I would restore your data from kies first...then restore the recent texts. Should be ok. If they do restore out of order..a restart should fix that.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
You've got two choices:

1. Root ME7 using the directions in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2380325 - there's nothing in that process that requires a PC. You'll have to format the SDcard in your Mac as exFat using Disk Utility, then unzip the exploit files into the root.

2. Update to MI1 using the OTA, then use Heimdall to flash the Root de la Vega root.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2487142

Or, a third choice - update to MI1, then follow the "Update to MJ7 and keep root" directions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] beez1717:
So if I take the OTA update will I go to MI1 or ME7?

Sent from my Verizon Samsung Galexy s4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
The OTA updates don't skip releases. If you're on MDK and take an update, you'll go to ME7.

If you're on ME7, it'll go to MI1. If you're on MI1, it'll go to MJ7.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
Two days ago my phone started shutting down without a warning. It did it 10 or so times, but now I can't turn it on at all. No light when connected to a charger. I haven't flashed anything new on it in a couple of months. The only recent change was replacing a defective 64GB SD card with a 32Gb one.

I tried removing the battery for a while, replacing the battery from a working phone, booting without the SD card and reset with hard buttons. At this point I don't know what to do next. There are several unbricking guides, but they deal with consequences of a bad flash, and my phone has been working fine for a long time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
You may want to try jiggling the Power Button. It could be the power button going out on you. Blowing compressed air carefully into the area surrounding the power button may also work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
It didn't work and highly doubt this problem is related to the power button. Couple of times the phone simply died just sitting still without any movement.

Check out the thread HERE. It may explain things better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
Thanks, interesting thread. There is however a key difference with my case- I didn't see the Power/Reboot menu popping up. That would be the tell-tale sign of the power switch issues.

I'm afraid that the only option for me would be to replace the motherboard. If I only could get the phone running one more time to create a backup...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gullzway:
Mine did the same thing last Wednesday. Hadn't added any apps or flashed anything. Got home and Flashed a new Rom to it, but it still rebooted several times. Now all I get is the Samsung logo, then Ktoonsez kernel logo then it turns off. Download mode will open, but phone shuts off in a few seconds. I Already bought a Note 2 off ebay but still trying to fix my S3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Did you do a Full Wipe before flashing the New Rom ? Did you verify the MD5 Checksum before flashing ? Have you tried booting back into Recovery, wiping cahces, and rebooting ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
Your symptoms are different- my phone doesn't even turn on. Interesting, I also run Ktoonzes kernel- I need the fast charge functionality. Other than troubles with 64GB SD card I had no problems with this kernel. Have you tried anything to fix the phone? You should have more options.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gullzway:
Yes to both. It won't boot into recovery, it starts to then shuts off. I got it to boot into Android by tapping the side of the phone on a desk against the power button, but it shut off about 10 seconds later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
You might have the power switch failure.

What I did was re partition several times. Then I partitioned and ran md4 see time. My phones been perfect now for a few weeks. Since fixing it. Originally it had rebooted from cm and went into boot loops. Recovery vanished. Would go into dl mode and shut down. Did this several times. I stayed persistent. It paid off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
I used ODIN 3.07, which looks like a correct version. I think that I have a hardware failure because the phone bricked not from a bad flash. Couple of times it lost power, but I could power it back on. It happened 4 or 5 times in a span of less than 24 hours. After the last power loss, the phone wouldn't turn on at all, unless I used the boot image on SD card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stopeject:
I bought a phone with a cracked LCD off ebay, activated it on my account and swapped the motherboard. Kind of a radical way to unbick the phone, but it worked:D If there is anything else that can be done to the old motheboard, which is now in the cracked phone, I will appreciate an advice.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alk195:
Hey guys,

So I've had my nook HD+ for a few months and have been running various roms on it for a while. Most recently I've had the latest Slimbean rom on it for about a week, Yesterday I went to use it after it had been charging all night and found it to be off. When I turn it on, it will just sit at the initial nook screen or get to the cyanoboot splash screen and just sit. I cannot boot into EMMC TWRP as it does the same thing. When I try to boot TWRP from an SD card it will get to the TWRP splash screen and just sit there without actually getting into the recovery, and if I try to boot a CWM SD card it will just sit at the cyanoboot splash screen. Is there something I can do to fix it or is my device bricked? And if it is bricked is there any way I could go about getting it replaced with the warranty as it currently and obviously has a custom rom on it.

Thanks for any help you can give me guys.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Did you try to boot to your internal TWRP but holding the n key and power key together from a power off situation? Be sure to release the power key after a few seconds so that it does not power itself back off.

The bootable SDs, were they new or had they worked previously?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alk195:
I had one that I had used previously that I had written over and used for other things, I remade the bootable SD on that one and it didn't work. I also tried making 2 other bootable SDs following both methods (new and old) of the guide in this thread. My HD+ has never had a problem booting from bootable SDs before this happened, aside from taking a few reboots to actually get it to boot which I have read is common.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Since you have a custom ROM and a custom recovery on internal, it is hard to tell if the SDs are booting or not. Both cases look the same on the screen. I would bet they are not booting and it is always trying to boot to internal.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alk195:
Well I can tell that the bootable TWRP SD card is at least trying to boot, as by just turning on the nook with that card in and not pressing the n button or anything will get it to the TWRP splash screen before it gets to the actual usable recovery screen. If i try to boot into the internal TWRP via n+power, it will either sit at the nook screen or the cyanoboot screen. I don't know if the CWM SD card that I tried was not working at all or just locking up on its own SD cyanoboot screen. Does that help at all?
