[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] San-J:
Hey, Newbie here

So long story short, I water damaged my Xperia Z, bought a second hand one with a cracked screen and switched the main board into the water damaged phone.

Now the problem is that the charging light comes on when it's on charge but it's a dull red. When I take the phone off the charger the LED stays on. I've tried the Down+power button reset but it only makes the light blink a few times. I tried connecting it to PC companion but the computer won't read the device but the LED turns bright and the computer indicates there's a device attached (for about a second then disappears) which isn't recognizable.

I'm all out of ideas. What is the problem and what can I try to fix it?

Thanks

dull red charging light mean the battery is really dry..try connect your charger until the light change, sometime it takes several hour for the battery to get charge again after it been dry for too long..also why you don't change the battery altogether with your motherboard? maybe your original battery still functional...;);)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josephcor:
Hi there,

Before I begin, I'd like to inform you, that I've searched lots of discussion boards and I'm at the point where I have to ask someone else... And I'm not a computer noob, but I'm just starting my journey with android... :)

I'm in possesion of three tablets, identified as MID710K. They have AML-8726-MXL CPU.

In both of them each have 0 internal memory and a factory reset every reboot. Reinstalling the system (through SD card only) doesn't make any difference. One of them at first was hanged on logo but installing through recovery menu unhanged him. But it has the 'factory reset issue'.

The third one works pretty fine, no issues...

I've read that the problem may be caused by busybox in /system/xbin.. The solution is to move it to /system/bin. BUT I do not have root access to the tablet.

I've tried to install su via recovery menu, but after reboot it's not there (I've had update.zip with su only downloaded somewhere from xda forums).

The next step was to put su into original update.zip package (I have the original one). First by myself (which was a bad idea but still - it's my first steps in android world) and using the [UltimateGUIDE][How-to]Create your Own Custom ROM an easy way|Android Secrets -_-.

Unfortunately for me, the tablet starts in recovery menu and there's a log:

"Finding update package... // Opening update package... // Verifying update package... // Installation aborted. // Formatting /data... // Formatting /cache... // Data wipe failed. // Formatting /cache // Cache wipe failed. // Formatting /media... // Media wipe failed".

So still - I'm not getting even close to resolving my issues and I need help.

The interesting fact is that the third tablet works pretty fine, reinstalling it with the same update package and no problems...

Is this a software problem? Should I try to build a ROM from scratch?

Or is it a hardware problem (damaged NAND)? The third working tablet speaks for this option...

What to do?

Generally, I'm a windows user, but it's not a problem for me to do certain steps from Linux, if that is important of course.

Thanks in advance for any response!

Cheers,

jcor

Hello Folks!

Hoping y'all could help me with this issue. So far, i have searched and found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302804 "Fix"

Now, i haven't tried it yet as there were more negative opinions regarding the supposed FIX. Anyways, here's the issue... I have just recently flashed my S4 with a Wicked v9.1 JB 4.3 version custom ROM and while messing with the new features and such. I encountered this "Camera Failed" message while trying to shoot a SlowMo video. It would sometimes even reboot my phone due to this. I can't seem to get the SlowMo feature to work but the Fast feature works just fine. I came to post here since i'm a new registered member and not allowed to post a reply on the Wicked thread yet. I hope there's a fix to this..Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello there,

I am new to this forum and android as well.

I have xolo play cell phone which is recently being useless because of too many times pattern attempts.

I know email and password but which is not useful as my internet connection is disable.

I also activated xolo secure due to that i am unable factory reset in recovery ( it says first you'll have to unlocked xolo secure but phone is locked) .

I also disable the usb debugging because i use many time to take data or download using cellphone...PC.

BUT

But the thing which i came across is i boot phone in "factory test" mode due to that i think my usb debugging on for that time i am able to view directory in phone by cmd (adb) and able to reboot using command prompt::confused:.

Now you guys work on android from so much long time is any one know command from which i can factory reset my phone

I dont want to take my cell to customer care because i rooted my phone.

Lastly if no option i have to go customer care support.

[Moto X Q&A] dicarli:
Hi. I screwed my WhatsApp after I tried ART and tried reinstalling the app, as it didn't work. Now I can't reinstall it and neither use it by any ways.

The reason I want to downgrade is that I can root and then update to 4.4 again, and fix the error.

Is there any way to so and keep data and apps? I tried fastbooting back to it but it keeps on a bootloop.

This is from WhatsApp FAQ:

Its not possible to go from 4.4 to. 4.2.2 without deleting user data.
[Moto X Q&A] dicarli:
I found a way out. Here is what I did just in case anybody have the same problem:

1. Backup user data via adb: adb backup -f backup.ab -apk -shared -all -system

2. Wipe data/factory reset.

3. Downgrade to 4.2.2 camera update.

You can apply root using SlapMyMoto here if you want (if you intend to upgrade to 4.4 that is).

4. Upgrade to 4.4 using OTA/OTA file once again.

5. Restore data using adb: adb restore backup.ab

I did this because I also wanted to root. If you just want to fix WhatsApp then you may take only the steps 1, 2 and 5.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PynkFloydd:
Upcoming Update

I'm sorry, but you're dead wrong. SO much misinformation here. First off, there is no "carrier" or "generic" baseband. There is only one baseband. Second, antenna design requires a lot of engineering to maximize signal efficiency when you're dealing with interference from such things as wifi, nfc, Bluetooth, metal construction in the phone, etc.. I'm not sure what magical material you think that cell antennas should be made of that will solve issues?

I just got off of the phone with Sprint. They show that there is an internal memo on the issue and LG is aware of it. They will be pushing an update as soon as it's ready. Sprint will also be pushing an update for the Airave to help with the issue. The support rep told me that it is an issue where the wifi and LTE radios aren't playing nicely together and causing a conflict. That's why everything seems to work fine when 3G is set as a preferred network.

I need help how to enable this Sim Toolkit application(stk.apk) on sm-n900L(korean version).

Stk does work fine on note3, sm-n9005.

I have ported 9005 rom to my n900L, but stk is still not working, sim menu did not pop up.

Ps: is this related to the efs, nv items, or modem? I just hope to a developer can solve this issue. Perhaps making standalone/universal stk application, maybe...

This issue has been around for sometimes without a definitive solution.

This application is very useful when we travelling aboard. Mobile banking, sim top up balance, etc.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidan:
Well.. this is what I am thinking,

I have a Galaxy Round(sm-g910s, SK-Telecom, Korean) and this sm-n900L(LGU+, Korean). Iam using both of them in Singapore at this moment. But Sim Toolkit application(system/app/stk.apk) is not working(sim card icon does not show up) when using local sim card.

Rather than selling both of them and getting International version sm-n9005, Iam willing to donate usd120 to a member/a developer who is able to make this app works (sim menu appears on the drawer page and working correctly, and most important thing: show me the workaround).

I will donate thru paypal directly after testing the stk.apk to a member who can drop the working file/solution on this thread, so anyone else who needs can get the files as well.

First person who is able to make this app works is the one who will get paid, meaning first comes first serves according to my testing and date of posting. :)

If somebody need any files from my phone, please ask.

Due date: before 24:00(gmt +8), January 15th, 2014.

Any member interested to join to donate, join to solve or join to donate and solve???lol..

I believe there are many people out there who needs this app to work in their korean version samsung when travelling abroad.

Some of them may think is more important than Knox thing..

Thanks mod for allowing me make this little bounty/donation thread.
