HEy Guys, i just wanted to Install the flashable zip of the newest TWRP over the current CWM. It said okay, but i still get the CWM Recovery. The App Rom Manager says that my current recovery is TWRP, but it isnt, i only get to CWM.

Im not into that stuff like adbfiles or fastboot mode, this is to hard for me to try.

Isnt there another option to get TWRP running?

thanks

Dude go 2 fastboot. Then flash the twrp file the same way u did when u first installed cwm after unlocking the bootloader(using command prompt). There might b a flashable zip directly, but I wud advise u use the fast boot method.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sindroid:
Dont flash. Use fastboot.

Put the recovery file in your SDK root on your computer and hook up your phone

Go to fastboot in bootloader

Then

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip

Another option is Flashify app on play store. Flash recovery with that without the adb hassle.

Hey guys,

Noticed today I had a OTA update available from AT&T. Wondering it I should or can download and install it? I'm currently running a rooted stock Rom using a few xposed modules and have twrp as recovery.

Does anyone know what the update brings? The phone doesn't offer any information.

Thanks

First, I just want to say this because I'm still amazed with this. It took Google about 14 hours to get a replacement device to me. Ordered my replacement Nexus 5 last night at 8:20pm EST, and today by 10:45am, UPS had dropped it off at my house. :good:

Anyway. Like most here, my phone was rooted\unlocked with a customer recovery on it, and just want a quick check to see if there is anything else I should do. I restored using the factory image, and ran the fastboot oem lock command to relock the bootloader. Nothing else needs to be done before sending it back, correct?

Thanks :)

[RAZR i General] FullXion:
-STILL HAS SIGNAL PROBLEMS-

Hi guys. Im not exactly new but i think this is my first post, cos usually i don't have anything interesting to post.

Bit of backstory:

Had a razr i for a few months. Upgraded to JB, hated the removal of sleep mode and the pervasive fuzziness to it all (ics just seems much more crisp to me) and so decided to downgrade. Assumed peoples of xda had it figured out, ended up with complete refusal to connect to any mobile networks about an hour after boot, which meant i had to restart a lot, which meant crappy batt life. Tried to upgrade back to JB, bricked and dead. Is now a useful and attractive paperweight.

Bought another, fully intending to keep it on ics. Experienced some issues with software bugs, figured they would be sorted in JB, which they were. However, missed ICS. Searched youtube for a decent way to downgrade, found a video describing how to downgrade with a different method than i have seen anywhere on xda - editing xml file in the fastboot files, and then using rsd lite. Looked safe, tried, now rocking fully working ics exactly as it was when i bought it, save for now having an unlocked bootloader.

Title of video is Downgrade RAZR I XT890 do JB (4.1.2) para ICS (4.0.4)

(cannot link, technically new member lol)

Some instructions, because the video goes on unnecessarily :

Get the fastboot files (it says and links to brazil in vid, but i used GB Orange, which my phone came with, and it worked fine)

Extract

Edit xml with notepad++ as follows

Delete line with getvar max-download (My rom didnt have this line anyway)

Delete line that mentions flashing gpt

delete line that mentions flashing motoboot

save file

(Guy turns back into zip, but is unneeded)

Open xml with RSD lite

Install in fastboot

HUZZAH ICS

Try at your own risk, can only say that this suggests only gpt and/or motoboot are the files that affect the service required code corrupt message (which i got on my first razr i, with and without using the unbrick files on xda)

I dont understand any of what the guy is saying, but if you need to see it in action, the vid is on youtube, shows it very well and gets points clearly across

This is just about the only place i can post this so yeah

glhf, i take no credit or responsibility, i am but a wandering do-gooder and whatnot

I was doing some doodling today and noticed that when my Spen is hovered over the right side of the screen (see attachment) its aligned but when I lower it closer to the screen the pointer drifts off to the outermost edge of the screen sort of the same effect as if you had a magnet underneath that area. I was wondering it anyone else is having the same problem or if its only my device. It only does it if I am holding the S-pen slanted in the same way i have in the picture.

Does the exact same on the left side if holding S-pen in a left slant
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nannlp:
Are you using any flip case?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d33f:
Another case of a case with a magnet.

That magnet distorts the magnetic fields that are being used by the WACOM digitizer (S-pen).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anir1.618:
That's going to happen man. Another friend of mine was using his Note 3 with the S-View wallet case that he bought along with the device.

The alignment was perfect for the first few days (if there was any, he probably did not notice). Then from the third day on, the right side of the screen became somewhat unresponsive. Tried it out myself. The digitizer was being recognized but in the wrong places altogether.

He started using some TPU case from Spigen I think and the problem vanished in a jiffy. Try that out. It's not a problem with your device.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robert_3EC:
I have a similar issue and I'm not using a case at all. When close to the edges, the pointer moves a bit toward either edge. If I tilt the pen it does the same thing as OP's.

Sounds like she's bricked unfortunately. Might have put an incorrect kernal or flashing something that wasn't supposed to. I bought a bestbuy warranty and it just saved me, because I made an incorrect flash. It was hard bricked. Nothing I did would fix it. Improper kernals can fry CPUs, and if you're odining your stock firmware from sammobile and it still is looping, chances are that's what's happened.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] trek7000:
My Note 3 suffered a few random boot loops out of the box. Then it ended up in sheer boot loop hell soon after it was rooted. At first, I too thought I had done something wrong until seeing all the posts about unchecking "Always Allow Scanning".

After the phone spent a solid 12 hours rebooting over and over, never getting past the T-Mo splash screen, it finally came back up. I unchecked "Always Allow Scanning" in the WiFi settings, and it's been fine ever since.

It would get quite hot during the boot loops, almost too hot to touch, while draining the battery very quickly. I plugged it in and set it on the fan in the top of my computer tower to keep it from frying itself.

I had same issue. Heimdall fixed it. Try it out, let me know. I have a lot of downloads, but no feedback. I need to know what other sorts of issues it can recover...

Recommendation though is to try the Bootloop recovery first just to get into a good recovery position, then wipe pretty much everything, and perform the stock restore.

When the stock restore hits, it runs its own little recovery script automatically fixing bootloop issues. You can root and do whatever else you want after that... Good luck.

Not sure if this has anything to do with the 4.3 update but I am planning on returning to BB and swapping out for another S4.

We got 4 phone at the time and mine seems to be the only one doing this.
