Root Phone and install CWM

Check with Root Checker and its successful

installed all types of rom including Wanam 4.3 to no avail

All Stock roms including 4.1.4 work

I'm a bit stumped and any help would be appreciated - its as if my bootloader is locked :confused:

You say any that presumes you have tried them all .

In recovery format sdcard system data cache boot to download mode flash stock rom or boot to recovery and flash your custom rom .

Really you should start by reading the faqs and guides first .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jags53:
Hi,

Sorry for being so brief.

I have formatted sd card through mounts and storage and cache

Done a clean ROM wipe also.

Still no custom rom appears to boot - all stock roms flash fine through Odin. Restores of stock ROM are also working fine..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Then you are doing something wrong .

Start with a stock cwm rom .

Marine GPS

Try Memory Map

http://www.memory-map.co.uk/maptech_marine.htm

I use the Landranger Series that they sell, which I find excellent, but they also do marine and aviation maps. Not too pricey either considering the quality.

Hope this helps.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinecone81:
I had my KF HD rooted for a while and wanted to try CM to make it into a semi full-fledged tablet. Along the way it got into a bootloop. Now the battery has died and I ordered a fastboot adapter from the guys from Blackhat and nothing is happening. When I plug it in all it shows is the battery with one red bar and the computer does not register it. Is completely dead or can I save it.

Update: Well gave it a few minutes with the fast-charger and it had shown the boot loop again, gotta let it charge a little bit and then try again. Will update if anything happens.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
Was gonna say you needed to let it set for a few minutes. After it kicks on again leave it for a a few minutes. Then, with it still plugged in, press the power button down for 30 seconds and it will power off. Now unplug and replug in the fastboot cord right away and you will see the screen say fastboot.

Now you need to restore your tablet. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1951254 make sure you have the SDK package downloaded as well.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinecone81:
I can get it to fastboot. But adb does not list the device anymore. Also I run 7.2.3 system restore and it hangs on the system restore part when doing any of the first 3 options. I let it sit for about 30 minutes and nothing happens, the program never progresses and the fastboot screen never changes.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinecone81:
I can see the Kindle in Device Manager and it lists Android ADB Interface when you expand it. Fastboot is on, but ADB is not seeing the device and it is not appearing in My Computer either.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LinearEquation:
With your tablet in fastboot, open a command window and type "fastboot devices" with no quotes and you should be able to see a number and your device. This is good and means there is communications. if not then you need to install the proper drivers.

Take take your SDK file and look for the folder that has the ADB.exe in it. I think this is the tools folder. Now open it and stick the drivers stunts has in that folder. Drivers here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2477379 Now go install that driver for the Kindle in the device manager. Remember that where ever you CD from, that USB driver has to be in that folder as well. Now open that folder with the drivers in it again and stick the stock Amazon images needed in it (get from restore tool if want or Hascode has some in his OP for this) and hold shift and right click on "open command window here." Now you are in CD cmd. You can probably just as easy CD from inside the system restore tool as well (unzip it.)

Now type fasboot devices

You should be able to see a number and your device. This is good and means there is communications.

You need three files. boot.img, recover.img and system.img

issue these commands

fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot "your boot image name here."

fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery "your recovery image name here."

fastboot -i 0x1949 flash system "your system image name here."

Make sure you end the commands with .img

Wait a little bit for it finish

fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinecone81:
I will attempt this when I get off work.

My question is should I delete the android folder in my documents and reinstall sdk to start fresh? I am looking to starting fresh because of the different changes I have done to the files. If I delete the android folder, what process brings it back, what software reinstalls it?

When looking at printers and devices, tate-pvt-08 appears under unknown devices. Is that a good sign or false hope?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinecone81:
Alright well I am trying to flash the 7.2.3 bin through fastboot, about how long is it supposed to take. Does it show progress or anything or do you just have to wait for it to change to each img file?

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
I would get a new battery. Sounds like your battery is dead. In some Android devices, not sure about the N3 if you let the battery completely die then even if you connect it to a charger it will not power up. If it cannot power up then it cannot charge either. The phone has to actually start in order to charge the battery as the charger is a smart charger.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkwkwk:
Hi,

I have an odd problem. Running CM10.2 stable.

If I try to take a photo of a subject with bright background (ie: sky in the top half of the photo), even if I focus on the subject, the subject will be very dark and the sky will have a correct exposure. If I put the subject in front of a building, it's fine.

On my Nexus 4, if I focus on the subject, it will adjust the compensation to have the subject properly illuminated (and sky will be almost white), but if I focus on the sky, then it will have the correct exposure for the sky and subject will be dark.

Any idea what's causing this?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkwkwk:
This seems to happen on stock factory ROM as well.

Could someone please do a test to see if it's isolated on this phone or if it's a bug in the driver/hardware?

A light bulb is enough to be in the picture, if you focus on the bulb, the rest of the photo should be black and the light bulb clearly seen.

If you focus on the wall, the wall should now be visible and the area surrounding the lightbulb should be almost white (over exposed).

Thank you.
