Turn off - Solved

Hi All,

Yesterday my phone suddenly turned off and i couldn't turn it on, i was sure i ran out of battery as i was @ 10% battery last i looked at it.

when i got home i put it in the charger and it turned but it showed the Google logo vibrated and turned right off.

after searching the web i found this threat but none if the button combinations suggested helped i could see the green robot but that would disappear after 1 second as well.

Called Google tech and he had no idea what the problem was he tried doing the power + Volume buttons as well but nothing helped, after 10 min. with him he suggested an RMA, as i am out of the US he could no process an RMA for me now.

I was very disappointed to have a weeks old Nexus 5 die on me and started playing with it.

It looked to me as if the power button was pressed constantly and was in some of loop.

I rattled the phone a bit pounding slightly on the back next to the power button & suddenly the phone turned on as normal.

I tried it several times and figured out that the power button is not "sitting" in place as it should and when i pounded lightly on the back everything turned on as it should.

I assume there is some mechanical fault in the power button assembly and this can happen to anybody with the rattling power button.

[HTC Tornado] Qtek8300user:
I recently got a Qtek 8300 (similar to an i-Mate SP5m). It's working pretty well and I'm pleased with it. However, one thing I wish I could correct is that when I have my phone in a case, slightly touching the front of the case causes the locked keyboard to unblank the screen. I have an eBook reader so I have the screen stay on for a longer-than-usual time. The problem is that unblanking the screen for no reason wastes battery power. Half the time when I glance down at the phone case, the screen is on.

Is there any way to get only the left soft key, or any other key, to unblank the screen to unlock the keyboard, and have all the other keys ignored? Thanks.

[HTC Tornado] dhucaby:
I'd be very curious to get a solution to this problem too. Even the Automatic Keylock utility seems to end up calling the canned WM5 keylock routine, which turns on the light whenever you touch a locked key...

I really liked the way WM2003SE locked the keys on a PocketPC phone. With that, the light stayed off until I pressed the power button. The beauty of the power button is that it's recessed and won't be pressed by a carrying case. Plus, I always knew where the power button was - even in the dark.

[HTC Tornado] cinimod1000:
This is a BAD flaw in the software build.

Has anyone found a fix to this?

I do know that the PPC version of WM5 has a checkbox somewhere in settings that actually allows you to disable all keys except the power button, when the keylock is applied. So there's got to be some extra registry entries on the PPC. Anyone got a Wizard or similar rhey can take a look at the registry and see?

I am SURE standby time would be GREATLY improved if we could invoke this on the Smartphone platform.......
[HTC Tornado] daern:
From my Wizard (XDA Mini-S), turning the "lock all keys" option on and off, changes this value:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]

"DefaultKeyLock"=dword:00000000 (unlocked)

"DefaultKeyLock"=dword:00000001 (locked)

unfortunately, there is no "Keybd" key on my Tornado (Xda IQ, specifically) so I suspect this won't work. Shame...

Hi there,

I'm hotspoting my laptop with CM10.1 and Soulseek needs a specific port to be open, my Android wont let it through. Same thing with Bittorrent.

All ports are closed by default apparently in the hotspot or tethering configuration, had a look around and cannot find any option for this.

I jumped the gun and tried flashing the 4.4.1 .zip for the N5 found here: http://www.droid-life.com/2013/12/05/download-android-4-4-1-update-for-the-nexus-5/

It flashed fine, so I then proceeded to wipe the cache/dalvik. This is where I ran into a problem. It sat there, stuck in the process of clearing the cache. After 5 minutes, I turned off the phone out of frustration. The phone booted up and began the "apps optimization" bit that you get after updating. Then I went to sleep. When I awoke, I noticed my phone wasn't receiving a cell signal and I thought, no biggie, cell service isn't very good in my house anyway. When I got to work later, I realized this was a problem. I can't receive a cell signal. My next thought was to flash the new radio to see if that fixed the problem. Well, I can't download anything onto my phone, nor can I transfer from my computer. It says that my storage is full, yet I can go to storage and see that I have over 5 GB of free space. Astro does not recognize that I even have internal storage.

Does anybody have any suggestions? I was just about to perform a factory reset but thought I should check here first. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The problem was worse than that. There wasn't any signal at all. Not even possible to place emergency calls.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nh777:
After coming from a fresh rom install, I've been trying to install adw ex but have had issue after issue.

If I try to go through Titanium, it just hangs and never installs. If I try to install from the standalone apk, the app isn't installed.

I've even tried going through Lucky Patcher, but I get an error reading "You must uninstall application before installing this apk, as the signatures are different after the recompiling." When I try to uninstall it, I get another error.

I'm thinking there has to be some piece of this apk that's still not totally uninstalled to be giving me this error. Regular adw installs without a problem but any version of adw ex comes with an error.

Any suggestions?

Edit: I've tried wiping data and cache to no effect.

Same problem here :(

If you have experience in android you can do the following

But first you must have android development tools installed...since we want to make use of "adb"

Connect your phone to the computer and make sure that usb debugging is on

On the computer,open your terminal and creat directory to the folder where the adb file is found

In my case,

./adb install -l /"Directory where the apk file is found"

That's all

Hope that helps,it worked with me :good:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] 3pix:
Hi, I have a few questions...

About Helium Backup..

If I use Helium to backup, how to I access my backup in internal storage? And if I wipe my device, do I keep the Helium backup? If not, then how do I access them before I wipe?

About unlocking the bootloader

Could I unlock the bootloader with wiping everything, then restore my backup with Helium, and then root? Or do I have to root then restore?

This is for the Nexus 7 by the way.

Lastly, is there a way to unlock the bootloader without wipe in a Nexus 7 (2013)?

Please, please please please

PLEASE

answer this, I want to root soo badly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Yuccaman:
Helium backups will just be made to your internal storage (Unless you have the premium version) and these will NOT survive a wipe when unlocking the bootloader.

Connect up your Nexus to a PC and copy the Helium files to it for safekeeping... Or if that fails and you have an FTP Server program on your PC, FTP them to yourself, or use the Airdroid app etc....

IMPORTANT NOTE for Helium.... It may NOT work with everything....

I wanted to move some game backups between tablets and it is a bit hit and miss... For the main, it worked fine, but there are a handful of games I found it could not transfer progress. Quell and GTR Racing 2 spring to mind immediately.

Effectively the backup is successful, but restoration is not. However, it could be as I was moving from Tablet A to Tablet B (albeit both Nexus 7's) that what cocked up these particular games....

I think you can do it either way to be honest, although you may as well root whilst unlocking the bootloader and installing a Custom recovery etc....

At least that way you don't have to activate Helium with your PC as it doesn't need this step once rooted.

No idea, but I suspect not.....

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kaos420:

I updated my phone to4.4.1 today and ever since I haven't been able to open my music player 'Mixzing'. When I click on the App icon it goes to a black screen momentarily then back to the home screen without starting the app (this is the only app that it happens on)

I have wiped dalvik ect and deleted any folders that have 'mixzing' on and tried re-installing but nothing has helped.

I couldn't post my question on the corresponding Dev Thread for CM11 on i9300, but found this post for Nexus 5. Unfortunately without an answer.

I have the same problem (MixZing app doesn't open) on i9300 with CM11 nightly (Android 4.4.2). On CM10.2 (Android 4.3.1) it worked fine.

Have you found an answer somewhere else?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wim69:
Same here, no solution yet.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenny:
I made a modded version of the mixzing app to get it to launch for me:

All I did was replace the following in com.mixzing.android.SdCardHandler.getCardId()

invoke-static {v10}, Landroid/os/FileUtils;->getFatVolumeId(Ljava/lang/String;)I

move-result v4

with

const/16 v4, 0xBEEF

You should use your own random number instead of BEEF since this effectively means that you are always returning the same value for getFatVolumeId as far as the app is concerned.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Can you explain this to the developer of MixZing? So they can update the original App.

Would be nice, thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenny:
They have said that they know about it. They were just taking too long for my taste, so I did it myself instead.

If you can't wait I can post my modded version if you want, but I highly recommend doing the mod yourself rather than simply trusting that my posted version does not contain any malware. It's just a good habit to get into IMO.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Never modded an App. But I'm eager to learn. Any resource (document, blogpost, etc.) I should look into?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenny:
You can technically use a combination of 7zip (or another zip utility), smali, baksmali, and signapk to do this mod, however this is not the most user friendly way to do it. I would suggest using one of the following:

Here is one way, apktool (Linux, Mac OS, Windows): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2195680

The other is Virtuous Ten Studio (Windows Only): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1619473

*EDIT*

It is important to note that since this is not a system apk -- I.E. one that comes with the phone -- you will have to re-sign the apk after adding, removing, or changing any of the files inside. If it were a system apk, you could place the classes.dex file directly into the apk (which is secretly a zip file) without re-signing. (VTS does this for you automatically).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Thanks, I'll check it out.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Ok, decompiled it and found the lines you mentioned in a file called SdCardHandler.smali.

Before I change it I want to understand a little bit what I'm doing.

The method getFatVolumeId() returns the Id of a given Mount Point. It's a native method call which I guess causes the trouble here.

If I change it to a static value, does it do any harm? I mean I have an internal and external SD card. Does MixZing check both?

Just some hex value I can think of? e.g. AEEF, CEEF, ABCD, ...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Couldn't wait, wanted to try anyway :cowboy:

Did the changes, compiled a new apk, signed it, but it doesn't install :crying:

When installing via the phone itself it just tells me that the App hasn't been installed.

When installing via ADB it get an INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE error. Need to figure out, how to fix this.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenny:
The problem is that on our devices, that native method does not exist, so we just arbitrarily use a value such that it always returns the same value (I.E. always the same card) As for the error, uninstall any applications signed by the same certificate as Mixzing was or sign your modded copy with debug keys, and it should install just fine.

*edit*

Other fun values:

DEAD, F00D, B00B, BABE, C0DE.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] storchp:
Thanks. A little research brought me to the packages.xml file. In there I found the shared user attribute for the MixZing Upgrader App. I was not sure if I want to edit the file. But after your tip I just uninstalled the Upgrader App and I could install the modded version.

Thanks a lot :)
