[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dante042:
So... I did the stupid thing. I attempted to go back to my old MF9 backup through TWRP after upgrading to MJA, and now my wifi won't even turn on. I've been trying to figure this out for a few hours now, trying various fixes. I've tried to use ODIN to flash back to complete stock, but that just destroys my phone until I flash a recovery through ODIN. Everything I've seen on the forums so far has made it seem as though there is no hope since Samsung added in Knox.

I'm sorry if this has been resolved elsewhere, but I've literally been searching the General. Q&A, Android Development, Original Android Development, and Developer forums for several hours today with no luck. Can someone please help me with this? I just want my phone to be fully functional again...

EDIT:

Here's the deal; my main problem was with Wifi not working. The Stock MF9 Kernel was not working, but the 4.2.2 TW Kernel found here finally did.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
did you try this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dante042:
Yes. Nothing changed when I did that. I suppose that I should call out that I am currently on MF9.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] lmayes69:
i just gave up on trying to do a restore. I actually used Titanium to get as much information from my old backup as possible then just rolled with it. :( I know that probably isn't what you wanted to hear but that what worked for me.. hope that helps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] JD1zzle:
I have read that the WiFi issue may be a Kernel issue.. Did you try a different TouchWiz kernel and see if it worked out?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dante042:
This is actually what I was trying to do, sadly. Titanium was backing up my info to the phone storage rather than the SD card, and I had to do a data wipe to get to MJA, so I lost them. I figured I could restore to my MF9 backup to redo them, and that's when the trouble started.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dante042:
I finally got it working. I had to try several different kernels until one finally worked. Now about flashing a new ROM...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Scott02:
rosa styhome

What kernel did you use and how did you install it? I'm having a similar issue and can't find a fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dante042:
Scott, check my first post. I edited it with a link to the page with the kernel I used. Make sure that you choose the correct kernel for your Android version. The MF9 and MJA designators have nothing to do with which kernel you need, so make sure to check in your "aboout phone" section to find out what android version you're running. Using the 4.3 kernel on 4.2.2 will cause a bootloop, which is easily fixed by flashing the correct kernel.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Android Cowboy:
I and many others who have changed build.prop or other modifications after root then bricked have found that factory reset is the worst thing to do. It completely removed the PC from recognizing the tablet and ADB no longer works in any manner. Which pretty much means a total brick device. There is no real way to recover at the moment but if you have bricked with root then ADB should still be working. That still leaves some hope to fix the original damage. I have pulled the Amazon bin file and have access to original build.prop and system apk. That might allow some way to reverse the damage. I also have a fastboot cable coming to test if HDX will get into fastboot. For now hold off on any modifications after root since there is no real way to recover. But if you brick definitely don't factory reset.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] r3pwn:
In Fastboot, It would be possible to recover if someone were to pull the system image and post it here on XDA.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Android Cowboy:
Yeah, we are desperate need of system image. I have the fastboot cable coming and new KF HDX being sent. If it's not done I should have it in a couple of days.

after awhile.I did this on stock rom(bad bad) thinking it would be fine. Of course i reset to factory which everyone warned. Now just grey kindle logo and cable( Factory and non) to pc pulls up unrecognized usb that windows stopped from starting Done deal screwed im sure
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Android Cowboy:
I don't think anyone has figured out a recovery from this kind of brick. Safestrap is now the way to go. I had to get a replacement myself.

thank you for your pationts with a new comer like me
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
There are not many ROMs that are newer than yours, so i would stay at your current ROM....

For adding Polyphone Ringtone support try adding the content of the ZIP-File in your Windows directory on your device.....

hi thx for the reply but as me i went ahead and upgraded it to win 2003 se ... but now the battery life on that is so low

what do u recomend me do now?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
Visit http://www.romkitchen.de/ , cook your own ROM (i would suggest 4.01.12 ENG) with some application included and be happy....

WM 2003 SE is not very workingfriendly, cause it has some bugs in the Wallaby version....

The error message should give you some indication of the problem. In this case, you have an error in your package.mk file in . build/core. That error message indicates that the error stems from line 269. I'm not terribly experienced with building but that should help you narrow things down.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fgr:
Why Google thinks I need the quick search bar at the top of every screen is a mystery to me.

Do I use it? Sure, all the time, but I hate the big white bar on the top of all my screens. You can uninstall or freeze Google search to remove it, but then you don’t have it anymore!!!

So I have edited the Launcher2.apk file so that it doesn’t display the search bar and spread the screen out a little to fill the empty space, but Google search is still installed! You can simply go to the widgets and select google search, and paste it ANYWHERE on ANY screen and RESIZE it also!!!

The only issue I have found so far is that Google decided to imbed the remove icon in with the search bar (the place where you drag an icon to remove it from the screen). You can still remove an icon by flicking it upward though. Thanks @MilkyJoePD for reminding me, I deserve a big Duh! This mod is only for portrait orientation, landscape is unaffected (no white bar to bother me so I left it alone). Deleting icons is the same as it always was in landscape orientation. Turn your Nexus sideways, remove whatever you want without any problem.

Screenshot:

IMPORTANT NOTES:

This is based off of stock roms. I deodexed the launcher and did my mods. If you are already running a deodexed rom, flash away! If your rom is odexed, this will still work fine, BUT YOU MUST MANUALLY DELETE THE Launcher2.odex file from the /system/priv-app folder after you flash it. If you’re using twrp, simply mount system and then use the file explorer to navigate to the /system/priv-app directory and delete the odex file. I haven’t used CWM for quite awhile and don’t remember off the top of my head how to do it from there. You can also delete it using adb (boot into recovery, mount system, then "adb shell" then "rm /system/priv-app/Launcher2.odex").

If you use the “Restore Stock Launcher” zip, it restores the stock deodexed launcher. It should run fine, even on an odexed rom (assuming you deleted Launcher2.odex).

Will this work on other devices? Like the 3g.

I have no idea, I don’t have one

(probably yes). Do a nandroid and try it.

Speaking if nandroid, DO ONE!!! I have flashed this many, many times on my device (2012 WiFi), and everything has been fine, but other than that, no other testing has been done.

No offense gogeta but 2.2 is not supported by some apps. 2.3.7 is supported by almost all apps. It is very stable. almost as fast 2.2 . Difference is there but not much if you don't go into specifics.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoericK:
So guys what should i install?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
It really depends on what you need.

2.2 is fastest, but it's really outdated. If you have a locked bootloader, then froyo may be your best choice.

2.3, though itself outdated, is still supported by many apps (though you can argue that most of those apps support 2.2 as well).

4.0, i can't say since i never liked ics and only tried a few roms for a bit.

4 1 is tye most updated android version we have right now. Some say it's too slow, but i personally don't think so. Our phone does have very limited ram, but you can either limit your apps installed, use a class 10 sdcard for swap (i prefer zram though), or add some tweaks.

For 2.2 i personally like froyobread and froyopro.

2.3 is gdx (dx's) and minicm 7.

For 4.1 i use yair's rom.

Edit: most people would say gb is the go-to rom regardless if you have a locked bl or not. I suggest you try gb first. :thumbup:

Best for X8

hie,

our X8 is a great device :) , our great developers have made all Android OS to run on it:good : :D .

but,according to my experience , x8 works best on GB(Android 2.3). its is very stable on GB . Froyo(Android 2.2) is also nice but nowadays there are many apps that require minimum android version of 2.3 . On the other hand ICS & JB(Android 4.0+) are great fr their looks and UI but our X8 just works on 600Mhz processor and 0.25gb ram,therefore JB is not stable and lags a lot on X8.

Conclusion:- You will get best performance and stability on GB for your X8. :D:cowboy:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
If you didn't get your phone 2nd-hand, you probably have a locked bootloader. Don't worry. There are roms for locked bootloaders. Personally, i prefer gingerdx for gb. Froyobread or froyopro for froyo. As long as you don't try to unlock your bootloader if your manufacturing date is 11w29 and up, then the risk is minimal. Search a little and you'll find guides on how to flash roms and/or unlock your bootloader. Good luck. Just read and search and you're safe. ;)

As long as you don't hard brick your phone tryingvto unlock your BL OR flash a wrong kernel you should be safe. Just search a bit. :thumbup:
