[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnboywilson:
Hi, I hope someone can help me.

I have a Nexus 4 that I bought with fault.

It was stuck at the boot logo.

I have reinstalled everything back to stock using Nexus root toolkit. I also have done it manually using cmd. And various other ways I have found after googling it.

The only way I can get it to boot is if I install 4.2.0. It then starts up fine. It then finds an update to JB which it installs and then I`m back to the stuck boot logo again!

Now you are probably thinking why don't I just leave it at 4.2.0. I want Kitkat.. ;)

I have tried just about every link I can find and I appreciate some of you will try give me links which I may or may not have tried.

BUT I am desperate now.

I have rung up Google who said they would change the phone for me under warranty. The only issue is that they told me it was bought from America so it has to go back to the country of origin. :(

Any help would be gratefully received cheers John.

Download the Factory Image in https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=pt-br#occamkot49h and use the "flash-all.sh" script contained therein. I had similar problem because I forgot a piece of the command, this script solved.

Probably a board failure, I doubt it's fixable.
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
ok now we have to build the rom.zip for a successful flash

go to folder that you made/armora

now you will see some folders inside that

you need make you chooses that you have to make when installing the rom in the armora installer :p

ok first of all drag all xperia arc device files to /system of you rom

now simply open each customization folder and make your decision and then drag the file to your .system of your rom.zip

but be carefuller

some of the roms will extract a file to a specific folder insead of /system

for example when you go to massgae folder you will only see apk files instead of /system folder so you will need to drag apk to system/apk

if you dont know where to drag the file simply quick replay my post and wait for my answer or open update-script of your unchanged rom and search for the massgae related lines then you will find out what to do

if you quick replay my post please post your update-script or any other usefull information

Hello. I'm searching for an app that will enable the status LED ( multicolor ) in concordance with the CPU usage. Like low cpu = blue, mid CPU = yellow, etc... If someone knows please post it here. Thank you in advance

You can make it yourself pretty easily.

Reading "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-3]/rq-stats/cpu_normalized_load" in a loop with references to /sys/class/sec/led/* for the levels would do the trick

To get the signal to work I used advanced signal info to change it to cdma from gsm. All I need is a flashable zip to fix the issues that would be awesome.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arco68:
You need a proper kernel built for your device, as the hardware varies slightly from the regular mini. Also for proper cdma support, rom needs to be built with it and the original RIL libs from stock rom should be used. Latest updates I did to msm8930-common kernel should contain everything needed for the US devices. Shouldn't be too hard to get working for someone owning the device and has some experience with building roms.

Since you're on a cdma device, the following in build.prop should be changed from:

telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1

to

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jontjioe:
All,

I have the Verizon Galaxy S4 Developer Edition. I purchased this one b/c it had an unlocked bootloader and I like to install custom recoveries so I can install custom ROMs. Originally, it came with the MDK firmware on it and I was able to root it and install a custom recovery.

I applied the OTA MJ7 update. While I am able to root the device, I have not been able to install a custom recovery. After doing a ton of reading and soft bricking, everyone says that the latest firmware locks down the bootloader so that you cannot install custom recoveries.

Here lies my confusion...I bought the Developer Edition so my bootloader would never be locked and I could always install custom recoveries. Is there something I'm missing? Is it possible for me having a Developer Edition phone to install a custom recovery even though I'm on build I545VRUEMJ7?

In talking with Samsung support, they said that the bootloader will NEVER be locked with any updates on the Developer edition. Any information or help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jonathan
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] richii0207:
Where did you purchase it from?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jontjioe:
I purchased it directly from the Samsung website. I tried to post the link but it wouldn't let me since I haven't made enough posts. If you google "galaxy s4 developer edition", it is the first non-advertised link that shows up. That's where I purchased it from.

If you take the cover and battery out, it says Developer Edition on the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] michaelg117:
As i understand it when you took the update it locked your bootloader, but please anyone correct me if im wrong
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jontjioe:
See that's what I thought too... That the update possibly locked my bootloader but how can I check if it is locked or not?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Thats what I've heard too. I'm no expert in the Dev S4, but I think I've seen a thread or two stating the same kind of problem. Which is crazy if you ask me.

Edit

I know Surge1223 I think posted the Dev Edition MDK firmware somewhere on here, I suggest maybe checking with him, maybe you can flash that back in your phone and be good?!

If nothing else, find that thread and ask him what to do... My guess is he'll have an answer for you.

I've read that it can re lock your phone and ive also read that the updates will not lock it up.... So I'm not really sure.

Good luck though!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
If you took the OTA, you no longer have the same bootloader and in effect locked the bootloader on your phone. Far as I know.

safestrap enabled, Hyperdrive driven
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
You locked your bootloader.

You used ODIN to install a MJ7 OTA file?

Consumer firmware can be installed on a Dev. edition, but it locks the bootloader.

They should have said something about that. They didn't?

I don't think you are going to get anywhere with support unless you send the phone back for a replacement. IMHO
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jontjioe:
Yeah, I used ODIN to flash MJ7. Sucks. I will just have to be more patient next time and not flash the latest thing right away. Seems like it is taking forever for someone to crack this bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
most likely, the bootloader won't be cracked. Too much security in place
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
How bad is it that people like him hey a Dev Edition that SHOULD always stay unlocked in my opinion, then are able to lock it back up?!?!

To me that's ridiculous. I'd be more than pissed if that was me.

There was a thread somewhere on here containing a conversation between that person and Samsung I think, and the Sammy rep told that person that the Dev Edition would never be locked even through any OTA.

Seems like such a circle jerk dealing with those people, I've fired off a couple emails myself just for laughs to Samsung about various things, and that's all they do is BS us.

What a shame, a Dev S4 that is just like my locked up mj7 S4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
I am an owner of a DevS4. What the OP did was definitely not a good thing. The DevS4 came originally with I545OYUAMDK. The retail S4 came with I545VRUAMDK. The only difference is that the DevS4 has a different ABOOT partition which allows for the unlocking. By applying the MJ7 OTA or ODIN file he essentially over-wrote his ABOOT partition, locking his phone down and turning it into a regular retail S4. The DevS4's are now sold with I545OYUEMJ7 - he applied I545VRUEMJ7. Unless Samsung will help him out by flashing the firmware to his phone so he can go back to Developer state, he is SOL with a DevS4 now turned into a locked down retail S4.

I only say this based on what I have seen/witnessed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
I've seen this happen before and Samsung took the phone and flashed the correct firmware, not saying you'll be so lucky but search around and you may find what I'm remembering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
Crazy. Dev edition phones should have an efuse that prevents locking. Trying to flash locked firmware should fail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Exactly. Lot of money for something that can easily be screwed up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
Just goes to show they don't have a real interest in a Dev device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skeetch79:
Not so sure if it a case of not having interest, I just don't think they thought it out fully. They produced them and spent the money investing in it. There is a Note 3 Developer edition as well. They just didn't fully think out the implications of support, updating, etc. Which is a shame. The Samsung Developer Device program could have been huge if it was executed properly. To take a retail device, change a few letters from "VRE" to "OYU", slap a sticker on it and call it a developer device, while it still contains KNOX and other developer unfriendly aspects was poor execution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] equake:
Maybe there should be a caution sticky here to not ODIN Consumer Ed images onto Dev Ed devices.

Its odd that Samsung even has this program but I guess they want devs to create Samsung Apps for carrier devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
DEV owners gotta understand wtf they are doing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Listen I feel sorry for the OP but it's completely his fault for flashing a consumer device image. I know if I were Samsung I wouldn't expect people who buy DEVELOPER editions to do something as silly as that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Why invest manpower and equal amounts of money to that of the retail edition for updating a phone in which virtually nobody has. Why would a dev phone need to be updated? It's basically a DD phone. I don't think many people have taken much thought into it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Droid9684:
Same problem with S5 DE

Hello Jonathan. I have the same issue as you do but with the new S5 DE. I recently accidentally locked the bootloader on it using JODIN for Mac. I talked to samsung and they told me they will flash the right firmware and restore the phone for free despite it being custom. What did you end up doing for your issue how was it solved? Also IMEI numbers are a problem in their system with Dev editions i was told and mine comes up as out of warranty. Thanks!

By the way I'll be writing up a tutorial for those who have Mac they can use ODIN windows on Virtual Box I figured it out. :) This may or may not apply to you.

I want a wireless charger for my phone because I'm always picking it up and putting it back down on my desk. I'm kinda sick of plugging and unplugging it, so a wireless charger would be nice. Thing is, I don't want one that's going to beep at me every time I pick it up or put it down and it's hard to tell from Amazon reviews if a particular charger does this or not.

Any suggestions?

The Nokia DT-900 works a treat with the N5, even with my Diztronic TPU case. Only thing is, since 4.4.2 (I think) the phone automatically makes a beep when you begin charging it. Only way to disable this is through an Xposed module, which you can find here: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.eldarerathis.xposedmodule.wirelesschargingxposed

It's a nice little app that lets you customise how the screen behaves when you begin/finish charging, and whether you want a sound played or not.

Hope that helps.

Nokia DT-900, Currently on sale for $24.50 from AT&T. Great quality wireless charger, just place the phone and it begins charging. No beep from the charger itself. Plays well with our N5s; no overheating issues etc.

Once you go wireless you never go back!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Pretty much any Qi charger except the ones shaped like a "Hockey Puck" won't beep. Those are the only ones I've seen so far that have a speaker built in to the charger pad.

The phone will also make a connection sound as well. Unless you have your phone on silent.

Just look for a Qi charger that has a 1A (1000mA) Output and you're good to go. The lower the mA output, the slower it will charge.

Seriously, i get it why he got banned. Giving donators privileges is a ****ty way of doing things. It would've been okay if it was an app, but holding a ROM update back for those who haven't given him money is beyond pathetic. Him being a recognized dev on top of that just makes this worse. He got greedy.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hykhleif:
greedy for pennies, dam that whole greediness, now what it seems that losing monx is a big losss as his rom was great.

I think we should however try to settle this and ask the moderator to lift the ban, as this is going to make the dev section slowing momentum which is already the case

Hello everyone!

I'm new to this forum and Qtek/HTC/I-mate but judging by what I've browsed through so far this place kicks ass.

Anyhoo... I just bought a S200 with WM5 in Swedish (the only language available here) and the damn thing lacks the transcriber. I googled a bit and found out the transcriber could be installed separately. Well.. no. Not on my S200. It just says that "transcriber is not a valid pocket-pc application". :roll:

Has anyone with a non-english s200/prophet/JAMin actually managed to install the transcriber? I was really looking forward to using that particular function, it was actually one of the main reasons I bought a non-qwerty-phone.

An option for me would be to flash the whole thing to english (I'm an Aussie so I'd actually prefer it) but is it possible to use swedish characters if the OS is english?
