[Sony Smartwatch 2] pranil:
Till now Not found a solution or alternatives ways

@ BLK900 ->> BTW I have tried on three different machines with Firewalls off /AV switched of to rule out any outside interference .

@ fastest83 ->> The power button is working fine as after pressing it it detects the watch in update service .

I think something is botched up in sony update service .

I found a thread on http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Wireless-accessories/bd-p/accessories/page/2 - where one user had excatly same problem after running update on SBH52 ( bluetooth headset launched at the same time). He allowed the battery to fully run down before running the update . I am going to try that

Anybody has a idea when the battery will run out in off state ( while running mine used to last 2-3 days):confused:

Sony must fix the update service or provide us a manul way to flash older firmware . so far my emails to service have not yeilded any results . getting the same boilerplate message run the update service or return it back for repair .

[Sony Smartwatch 2] fastest83:
As for the battery, I'd expect at least 2 weeks while off, maybe even more...

I would try to run the update service several times (if it recognise the watch, that means the watch is somewhat on) to see if the battery runs out faster...
[Sony Smartwatch 2] derkie:
does it show a number at the top left when switching on before the sony logo? i had the same issue today but fixed it.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] danymexi:
i have the number .3 25 11.

i can't pair the sw2 with my nexus 5. i don't know why!

someone can help me? what can i do?
[Sony Smartwatch 2] derkie:
Mine after showing that error code, it vibrates 3 times... All I did is charge it until the pairing animation shows up then I paired it manually via Bluetooth - it paired and it booted twice and that's it.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] danymexi:
when the sony battery is 100% my sw2 didn't reboot in pairing animation. and if i press the power button, it vibrates 3 time and i can't pairing the phone. it said i can't piar because the pin or the passwork are wrong. but i didn't put any password or pin.

Can someone help me?
[Sony Smartwatch 2] themissionimpossible:
Try the pairing with another smartphone, then when paired use the icon Settings on the SW2 to reset it, and then try the pairing again with your smartphone.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] severoprisan:
Dead

My smartwatch 2 stopped responding the 2nd day I bought it. It was showing the Sony logo and that was all. Tried updating with SUS, went ok and when restarted phone it shows logo and. 3 25 11 code. The phone is detected in SUS but update atempt fails. Tried charging, it appears that is charging but the percentage doesn't rise until restart. I think is dead.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] severoprisan:
I sent my watch back to Sony. No answer yet. I will post the results when it will arrive.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] salaskian:
so severoprisan, how is your sw2? is it repaired? what did they say?
[Sony Smartwatch 2] severoprisan:
Not yet. It takes 1-3 weeks from January 10th. So I'll wait.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] og.man:
Same here

I had the same issue. Called Sony and went through some troubleshooting before they decided it needed to be returned. The support people do not seem to have any idea why this is happening.

Not a great experience with their support people. They promised an RMA and then "forgot" to issue it. It took three calls, but the watch has finally been sent to them. I'm awaiting the refurb now.

update: Got a call from Sony. During the conversation, they mentioned that they do not send out refurbs and that the replacement watch I will receive should be brand new.

update 02/29/14: Received the replacement watch today. Pretty fast turnaround. Now I just hope this one doesn't brick, too.
[Sony Smartwatch 2] bartmw:
I had same problem, got this watch on Christmas and after update sth gone wrong and only Flash FS message on screen. Tried everything and no luck. Finally contact Sony and send to SBE (in UK that company services most of mobile phones as manufacture service) and got replacement watch after only... 3 weeks :)
[Sony Smartwatch 2] severoprisan:
Talked to service, they told me that they have 2 SW2's and there is no way to repair them if bricked. So i'm waiting for the replacement watch.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiyyar:
Being gifted a Coolpad 8180 Chinese Phone (Android 2.3.7) with no google play or rest of the usual functianalities,i have been struggling to crack it and flash the ROM.Most of the tutorials and the forums in the Web have been tried and tested but still I am stranded and wondering how to proceed.Being a Noobs does not help

My challenge and mission is two fold

1)Clear out the existing firmware and apps in the phone(most of them are Chinese) and reinstall a new foirmware and android version

2)Would it be possible to test and maybe install KitKAt 4.4 in it considering it has the basic minimum requirements such as 512 RAM to run it

Any one can give some helpful advice, would be highly appreciated

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maritimesbob:
Hello,

Tried many custom roms but usually end up coming back to the offical AOKP rom for the N4. I like the options and speed of the rom, find it very stable and use the theme engine. I haven't tried their 4.3 roms as they are all nightlies and I am always led to believe these are a bit risky for using as a daily driver. I use my phone for work and important things.

I have stayed with 4.2, but the only issue I have found is that the camera flash does not work. I have tried the latest stable 4.2 release, but then under instruction by aokp him/herself flashed the last 4.2 nightly as I was told there was a camera fix for that release. This was a clean install, I wiped and flashed.

Unfortunately I still cannot get the camera flash to work. I know my phone is not faulty as the flash works fine in Beanstalk, CM and other roms.

Anyone else experienced this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
The nightly releases for AOKP 4.3.1 are stable. Just make s nandroid backup and install them.

ThemeManager crash with Franco/Hells kernel

Hi,

Did anyone had issue with ThemeManager. It's crashing always while restarting phone. I tried Franco/Hells kernel and it happens on both. It's working correctly on standard kernel. I tried to set up stock theme/clean data in application. Nothing helps.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dvnsmth:
I am currently using a Droid incredible on Straight Talk and used the BYOP program to do so. And today, just for sh#ts and giggles I ran my xt912's MEID through their compatibility checker. and it claims that it will work. Now from what I've read online and on XDA I've come to the conclusion that it is not a possibility. I'm just wondering if possibly they (Straight Talk) have made it possible or this an error. Any insight is appreciated thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LuckyHermit:
Try it out!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] manny805:
My mom has straight talk , i have an xt912. currently active with verizon . how can i try it out if it works with her sim ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
The xt912 will not work with her sim from the straight talk sim program that would be T-Mobile of AT&T this phone will not work with them because of the lock on our phones. To use straight talk on this phone u need St byop cdma program which does not give you a sim just uses the old 3g phones and u may have to do some cdma workshop changes like you have to do for page plus, hope this helps
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
Hi Guys ,

I have an issue right now, i tried to update my HTC ONE from ViperOne 2.7.0 OTA to ViperOne 3.1.0 RC1 -> RC2 OTA .

Everything went ok, successfully flash , then i went back to reboot now ,and it got stuck with : Viper One text on display .

If you have and ideea, please tell me.

I did a backup from recovery menu` but i`m not sure about the media stuff that i own(pictures,clips,etc) .

Thanks in advance .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] SynisterWolf:
AFAIK ViperOne hasnt been made for the Verizon HTC One. can you point to where you downloaded the rom please?

but normally when this happens its a boot.img problem meaning the kernel is not working properly if you flash another rom that is offered in OUR dev section you should be able to boot no problem. as for media stuff, that should be in the internal storage
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
That ROM is made for Sprint and so was the OTA. Should be able to boot to recovery and reflasha rROM made for this phone. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
Hi ,

synisterwolf :

I have download the rom from here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2334294

andybones : I understand what you are saying but how can I put a new rom to flash, because I can`t see my mobile in My Computer , because it`s not turning on .

Thanks .

PS : my htc it not on verizon, it was full unlocked from europe .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
There is a general HTC One forum you may get better results in as you said this one is Verizon specific.. FWIW here is a link to the general HTC One forums - http://xdaforums.com/htc-one

but, to answer your question,

turn off the phone completely, (make sure fastboot is off in settings.apk)

then, hold volume down + power to get into bootloader mode, then from there you can fastboot flash an RUU for YOUR phone, make sure the RUU isn't made for another phone or it could brick, also make sure not to flash, radio, hboot, recovery, basically anything not made for your phone (aka files found in this Verizon forum)

Here is a good video of how to flash an RUU on the HTC One: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpA71FXddyU and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g5gEf2wgS4 are both good

(I prefer to use fastbootRUU, which is done by runnnig these commands in fastboot:

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader

if you don't have an RUU to run. that should still be just fine and probably easier, actually yea try this first, boot into bootloader, then either fastboot flash a custom recovery (if you don't already have one) and flash yourself a ROM made for your HTC One.

so is your phone from Verizon, it is just full unlocked from Europe? am I reading that correctly? If so, what does this mean? you are using a Verizon HTC One on a Europe carrier? Sorry, just a little confused on that part, hopefully this comes to some use to you.

Best of luck,

Andy
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
Thank you andybones .

I dont have RUU .

You said : "if you don't have an RUU to run. that should still be just fine and probably easier, actually yea try this first, boot into bootloader, then either fastboot flash a custom recovery (if you don't already have one) and flash yourself a ROM made for your HTC One "

How can I put another ROM on my phone ?because it`s not recognized by my computer ?

If I "wipe data / factory reset " from ClockWorkMOD Recovery, I will be able to restore the previous backup made with ClockWorkMOD Recovery?

And yes, my phone it`s from Europe but it`s unlock from factory .

Thank you very much .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
Hi ,

Here are a few screen, maybe it helps solving my issue with this !

Is there any way to flash it without losing data ?OR to put any .zip file on my phone ?

Thanks ,

ps : can anyone move this thread here http://xdaforums.com/htc-one/help
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
And now it`s stuck like this .

This cant be happening .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Chilidog:
You are probably flashing the wrong recovery img
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
Yes, probably, how can I find the right recovery ?Because I`ve been reading a lot and still cant find the right RUU or recovery .

Thank you .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] woznet:
You really need to be asking these questions in the forum section for the HTC One you bought, people here are familiar with the Verizon HTC One which is different from your HTC One. If you can find out which HTC One you have, I would be willing to bet that you can find the RUU's and other tools, such as something to remove the red text on your flash screen and get your phone booting again.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Pete450:
Like others have said, you need to get to the correct forum section for your device, regardless of what carrier you are using. This section is for the Verizon HTC One model only.

To answer your question about flashing recovery:

1. download the correct recovery for the device that you have, not Verizon

2. enter the bootloader

3. plug phone into computer

4. enter the command: fastboot devices

- if you dont see anything listed, you need to get fastboot working, and I won't get into that...

- if you do see your device listed, proceed

5. copy your recovery.img file to your fastboot working directory

6. enter the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery_file_name.img (with the correct file name of the recovery you downloaded for your specific device)

6. wait for your terminal/command prompt to say its done, should be just a few seconds

7. enter the command: fastboot reboot-bootloader

- make sure everything looks fine

8. use volume buttons to select the "recovery" option, and press power to select, which should reboot into recovery
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] woznet:
With a little help from The Google I came across this - http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/ - Hopefully one of those will be the right one for you. Before you flashing or doing anything you should answer a few questions - Are you S-off or S-on? What model HTC One do you have? You should able to figure out a lot of this information from your Bootloader page, at the very least you should be able to tell the hboot, OS, CID and Radio versions, from that information you hopefully will be able to figure out which RUU you should be using.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mailm4n:
The thing is that here i dont find my RUU , the radio version it`s not the same with my phone radio version .

I will try what [MENTION=1331268]santod040[/MENTION] said .
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] woznet:
From what you are describing you installed the stock recovery, if you want to be able to access the recovery and install rom, backup/restore and more you need a CWM or TWRP Custom recovery. For these you need to make sure you get the right one for your model/version HTC One.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Power and volume up should get you a stock recovery menu...

If you are back to stock now and want to load a custom rom, then yes, you will need to reflash a custom recovery now.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] smokindank42o:
you should not do an ota with custom firmware

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeathBoT:
I currently have a Galaxy S4 SCH-I337 MF3. Its rooted. Safestrapped, with Bare stock TW on stock ROM slot, and GS4 GPE on ROM slot 1.

My first question is this: Can I do a full backup of my stock ROM and flash over it? I know its generally considered not to do that but im losing alot of drive space running it this way. This leads me to question 2.

If I can not Flash over the stock, can I make my ROM slot 1 OS have a bigger partition? I need more then 2GB of free space for apps. If thats not possible, I was thinking of backing up and then building a new ROM slot with more space.

Can I harness the whole of the drive, TW rom slot aside?

Also as a side question, I managed to delete the stock messaging app from my GPE OS, I was trying to install the CM one from the play store. It crashes on boot of the app, so i removed it and now stock sms is gone. I tried to pull the APK from my GPE rom, but it would not install.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] failedjedi:
You can wipe out stock slot and only have the one rom on stock slot with no other slots taking up space.

At first this wasn't possible, but now that the backup image is out there, you can always restore to the stock samsung TW rom if anything messes up.

So unless you actually wanted to 2 OS's to switch between, I would just delete all the rom slots, and put whatever rom you want in stock rom slot. although it can only be the 4.2.2 GPE edition or TW based, but I assume you know that already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeathBoT:
Thanks much. This really helps. Would I be able to back up rom slot 1, then restore it to stock slot.? Also what wiping would I need to do? I don't want to accidently wipe out my SD.
