[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ronfurro:
Is there any reputable people who will do the root and custom recovery for people who are tech. challenged or who don't want to take the risk? I had my Motoactv pimped out by a developer for $40 bucks. He installed all kinds of cool apps. and did adjustments in all the setting that I would have never been able to figure out or even thought of. Basically I just asked him to make my watch like his. That would be cool if someone did that for the Gear who was reputable and trustworthy within the development community.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hurdlejade:
40 usd for putting apps on a watch? wow, someone got free money for few minutes of work... ;)

my advice - just try to do it yourself. you won't burn your gear, in worst case you will just let someone else finish it if you want.. but if you succeed just consider donating that money to the creator of the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ronfurro:
Lol, maybe but It was very much worth it to me. Much less stress and hassle.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hurdlejade:
i would do it for a bottle of a good wine ;) but i'm in europe so that's a no i think..

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] gingerdude:
We all have our own methods for side loading APK's, here's mine :)

Download myappsharer or similar from play store to phone, open app this presents you with list of APK's on phone , select desired app and click share apk via Bluetooth, you will see the gear listed...select and your done. Once transfer is complete use your fav file browser to navigate to sdcard/bluetooth folder on gear and install. EASY :D
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] mrbkkt1:
I dont see my gear listed. Does the gear have to be rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] gingerdude:
Hi ... Your gear should already be connected to your phone by Bluetooth , so it should be highlighted in blue at top of list after you click share by bluetooth. After it is shared you would need a file browser on the gear to install the APK's. The advantage of this method is no PC is required and all is done between phone and gear. Don't think you need to be rooted but would need adb or Wonder share to get file browser on gear in the 1st place.

..........no PC is required AFTER you have a file browser installed on the watch.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] mrbkkt1:
Meh, my by doesn't see the gear, even if I make it discoverable, and disconnect the gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] F1USGP:
Mine is the same way. Using a GS4.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] ywor1:
and fights with no internet
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cdf3:
My Gear doesn't appear either. Still trying to find a way to easily sideload apps to my Gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] pascals:
Sorry, I've the same result, like everyone here : when the gear is connect to, it don't be displayed in ready to connect Bluetooth stuff...

I try to kill gear manager, same result (it can't be killed)

Perhaps it could be possible if you suppress gear association and activate visibility on the gear ?

I don't have time to try this

If someone could try this and write here the result, it could cool

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] gingerdude:
I'm not really sure why everyone is struggling with this so I will try and explain it again.

To start you will need a file browser on your gear like es file explorer.

1) download my app sharer from play store to phone.

2) open my app sharer on your phone this will present you with list of all apps on phone, IMPORTANT there are 2 options 1st "share link" (I think this is highlighted by default), unclick this and click the 2nd option "share APK's" this is at the top of list of apps.

3) tick the box next to the app you want to send to the gear, then scroll to top click share icon in top right hand corner.

4) click the Bluetooth icon located next to the gmail icon

5) as your gear is ALWAYS connected to your phone it will be already be highlighted in blue at top of list, select and except the file on the gear.

6) the file is sent to the Bluetooth folder on the gear so this is where you will need the file browser you previously installed on the gear, navigate to folder and install app.

I used wonder share to get file browser on gear but you could adb it instead.

As I stated before there are many methods of this but I like this way as if I'm out and about I can move apps to gear with no computer.

Hope it helps
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] pascals:
Ok, your procedure don't works

Btw I found a workaround :

Installing Bluetooth File Transfer (from medieval software), on both side

For gear I use wondershare.

Before uninstalling wondershare, I download apk easy uninstaller into gear, to uninstall correctly apk transferred...

To sideload thru Bluetooth, execute Bluetooth File Transfer on both side !

That's all, works evidently on stock rom, no root gear..

[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
Hello Guys, I need your help.

I got this INSPIRE 4G from a friend. When he gave it to me, he said it needed to be flashed.

The thing is, When you press the power button, it boots straight up into Fastboot.

Here Is my Hboot Info

ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-0.85.0024

MICROP-0438

RADIO-26.09.04.11_M2

Emmc-boot

Apr 12 2011,00:55:45

In Fastboot, i can move around with the volume buttons and power buttons(so that means the phone booting straight into Fastboot isnt a result of one of the volume buttons being stuck.)

When i try to access recovery from the Bootloader, It vibrates 6 to 8 times then the screen becomes black,it stays that way until i do a battery pull.

When i select factory reset from the bootloader, it does nothing.

WHen i select Image CRC from the Bootloader,These is what is printed on the screen.

OSBL: 0xC2C4DD79

AMSS: 0x6CC260EB

HBOOT: 0xF9E06F63

BOOT: 0x0

RECOVERY: 0x0

SYSTEM: 0x0

As the digit are displayed, the first three look okay,but the last three which are BOOT RECOVERY and SYSTEM seem to have no digits, Which kinda looks like its empty.

THESE ARE THE SOLUTIONS I HAVE TRIED.

1. I tried flashing a recovery from Fastboot, but it gives an error like this:

C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot devices

HT0BFRX06133 fastboot

C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

sending 'recovery' (3704 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.664s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.672s

I get the same errors when i try to flash,erase or format the rest of the partitions(BOOT,SYSTEM).

2. I have also tried the HTC RUU, it finds the device and then gets stuck when it tries to boot into Android.

I have also tried the HTC RUU Hboot update but it also fails like the RUU ROm update.

3. I have also tried to flash the STock rom as PD98IMG.zip via bootloader, but when it finds the file, it asks me to press volume up to start update, when i press volume up, it loads the file and when its suppose to flash it, it sort of skips it and move to the next. It does that until its done the asks me to press power to reboot. Since it skips the files it stays the same after reboot.

3.I have Also tried flashing Eng-Hboot as PD98IMG.zip, But it skips that also.

4. I also tried to use this command Fastboot oem boot

And this is what i get:

C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>Fastboot oem boot

...

(bootloader) Error status=0x400008

(bootloader) [SD_HW_ERR] SD: read fail ..

(bootloader) DATA_TIMEOUT

(bootloader) [SD_HW_ERR] read data fail in CMD17

(bootloader) [SD_HW_ERR] SD: Read data fail..

(bootloader) [ERR] partition_read_emmc(453): error 13

(bootloader) [ERR] boot image does not exist!!!

OKAY [ 1.418s]

finished. total time: 1.418s

I am begining to think that some how the partitions are corrupt or something.

PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
[MENTION=1557593]krook6023[/MENTION] The reason why i posted there also was because i wasnt sure what device it is wether its a DHD or INSPIRE 4G since it doesnt boot up and is stuck in bootloader,thats why i posted there also.Hope you understand and open the other thread incase someone over there has the answer to my problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] spokanite:
You are almost on the right track but are doing each step wrong.

1. You are still bootloader locked so no fastboot commands will work.

2. If you want to run the RUU you have to place the phone into. Fastboot mode first. Select fastboot mode and you should see fastboot usb on phone screen and then the RUU will recognize it as long as you have an uncoerupted sd card installed.

3. PD98IMG files need to have the appropriate android-info.txt to run properly.

4. This is obvious as you don't have a boot img.

I would try the RUU method first.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
Thanks for your reply.But i tried 2. and made sure android-info.txt was appropriate, it just wouldnt flash. Looked like the partitions were corrupt thats why it wouldnt flash.

This is how it usually acts.

It finds the file, Loads the file on the upper right side of the bootloader with a green loading bar, after that, when its time for it to flash, normally shows up in red loading bar. It just moves as if it was flashing a 1kilobyte file. Then asks me to reboot.

After reboot nothing happens. Stays the same way.

But Right now, its even worse. After installing QHSUSB_DLOAD drivers, its refused to boot into bootloader ever since. but shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD when connected to my pc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Wait, you're S-Off, so you don't need to unlock. What recovery are you trying to flash?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
I tried flashing CWM,TWRP,STOCK.... but non of them worked.

But as i said, after installing some drivers i found for QHSUSB_DLOAD, it no longer boots into bootloader.

But when i connect the device to a computer it only shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD.

Any Help On that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Nope, no idea. What drivers? From where?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
I found it on one of the threads.

at first, when the phone is connected to the pc, the charge light turns on and shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD, but now no light or bootloader, just QHSUSB_DLOAD
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Was it a DHD thread?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
Yea i guess so.

After the driver stopped the device from booting into bootloader, i read the README file that came with the driver and found out that it was for Some sort of Qualcomm Modem Device.

I guess thats why it bricked the device. :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
What thread?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mickeyasamoah:
I cant seem to remember what thread it is. Cause I downloaded lost of the drivers from different threads. So I cant tell which one is from which thread.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
Yeah, I don't think I can help you then.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 13lack13ox:
Is it actually fully bricked yet? What exactly happen when you power on the device unplugged usb?
[Asus Transformer TF701] valentin8709:
Hi everybody!

I have recently bought a TF701 device and I'm really happy with it! But as all devices I have, I would like unlock and root the device and install a custom recovery for a custom rom. Ok, first step: unlock the tab with the app by asus... It's only working with android 4.2.2 and my tab runs 4.3 (updates in shop certainly). So I have tryied to "downgrade" using the asus 4.2.2 firmware.... but impossible, it can't downgrade the tab =(

So, how could I unlock my device? Did I make a mistake?

Moreover, I run 10.26.1.7 and would like upgrade to 10.26.1.18, so I have downloaded the World Wide firmware (T4Update.zip) on Asus website, put it on a uSD card and followed the instructions but I have an error in bootloader (a droid opened with a simple "error" message).

Thank you really much for your help, and sorry for my bad english =/
[Asus Transformer TF701] alanhero.lwl:
U download the zip file and unzip the file.

It should be UL-K00C-TW-10.26.1.18-user.zip (I live in Hong Kong , Taiwan version, yours should be US version)

1. Put the file to root level of SD card

2. Turn off the tablet

3. Hold the power key and down-volume

4. Use down-volume to Select middle icon and then press up-volume

5. After load into android system follow the simple instructions to upgrade

Hope it can help!
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Unlock tool works fine with 4.3. Even says so on the Asus webpage ;) No need to downgrade.
[Asus Transformer TF701] valentin8709:
Greaat! Thank you for your help, I now run the last firmware =)
[Asus Transformer TF701] valentin8709:
Ok now it's working! I don't now why, but before I had an network error... (network was fine with internet etc..).

Thank you for your help! I am too happy with my new tabet! =P
[Asus Transformer TF701] Paro89:

[HTC One X] trojanere:
I have had two companies give me the same unlock code which does not work. Is it a problem with the phone or a problem with the code?

Both say factory reset the phone but this has some issues I think, sometimes I get a red triangle or it reboots very quickly without resetting from the rom.

Phone is sim locked to Three UK (who have stopped fixing the phone directly and HTC won't look at it as its been boot loader unlocked)

Can anyone help with this if so, give full instructions and files needed. Thanks in advance.

P.S. it would be nice if a debranded rom could be installed.
[HTC One X] Thant:
ARe you on STOCK rom and stock recovery. If no go to full stock
[HTC One X] lolozaur:
I had the same problem on my One X locked on Orange Romania. It seems some GSM operators change the factory unlock codes. The only way to unlock it would be to have a buddy working at the GSM Operator or wait until the phone gets out of contract. I was unable to unlock mine.
[HTC One X] trojanere:
yes I'm on full stock rom.
[HTC One X] trojanere:
Well I have ordered the unlock from the operator now and am waiting to see what comes back from them.
[HTC One X] trojanere:
OK so I have got the code from Three UK and it is the same as the the others and does not work.

Does anyone think it is because the boot loader has been unlocked?

HTC support chat reckon thats the problem:eek:
[HTC One X] chalmizzle:
It shouldn't, I believe I had the same problem but I was on AOSP, I had to put a stock ROM on for sure.

It could be worth locking it to see though, it's not the biggest pain in the ass! :)

If no joy, Im out of ideas... sorry mate!

Good luck
[HTC One X] trojanere:
Relocked it and still didn't work.

It has the stock rom with latest Three UK OTA.. only unlocked for root ap reasons not for custom rom:confused:

htc one x IMEI null after installing rom 4.1.1

hi ,

my htc one x imei not show when i install a rom 4,1,1 i also try it installing stock rom it dosent solve i also dont even have an backup my phone is already unlocked i cant able to use a calling,wifi, bluetooth pleas any one help me i buy in 32.500 ind ruppes help me .
[HTC One X] big noob:
Flash the lastest upgrade..4.2.2 Sense 5..
[HTC One X] trojanere:
My phone has this stock Rom already on it.. I would have to try putting another stock Rom on it. It it possible to put a standard unbranded stock Rom on it instead of HG3?
[HTC One X] big noob:
As far as I know ofcourse you can :)
[HTC One X] trojanere:
OK I have put another H3G stock rom on and this does not work either.

After looking into this further I have found somewhere that if the phone is a replacement one or something was changed from manufacturer and providers with regards to databases for unlock codes then the one provided may not work.

Well my phone went into the service centre and they fixed it but stated after testing they decided to change the mainboard. I suspect because it was originally a CID 1111111 with S-OFF(unbranded as HTC described it) as it was delivered first day they came out. Rush job to get to market and didn't get branded to H3G_001 and S-ON I suppose.

Anyway I suspect that because the main board has been changed the the unlock code has also changed and not been documented or changed on the database for the codes. So they are providing me with the original code not the new one and the letter for the fix state IMEI code previous and new the same, so they must have just reprogrammed that and forgot about the unlock code.

Is there a way to read these off the phone, NVR or something?
[HTC One X] ted dibiase:
I am with Orange or EE and I have tried to flash a stock rom with stock recovery and relocked bootloader and nothing has worked. I have paid 2 companies for the unlock code which is the same code and nothing works I am so frustrated might have to leave htc. This is ridiculous I am on 3.16.61 and my cid is orang001
[HTC One X] trojanere:
I'm going elsewhere on my next phone too. HTC support use the bootloader unlock as a get out of jail free card.
[HTC One X] cueballkrill:
Just to kick this up I've had the exact same problem (this time with t-mobile) 3 companies and EE all with the same code, all refused by the phone.

Heart breaking really.

Is there no hardware method to get the code or an alternative sim unlock out there?
[HTC One X] Thant:
ask the t-mobile
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pinbot:
I have done a search of the archive and while this problem is mentioned there wasn't an easy solution.

Over the last 24hrs the phone is switching itself on (after between a few seconds and a couple of minutes). It isn't autosync, and no tasks are showing as starting in the task manager. I haven't loaded / unloaded anything onto the phone for the last few weeks.

I've tried a soft reset - no change. I don't want to hard reset as it will take me a long time to reconfigure the phone.

Any advice would be gratefully received,

[Sony Xperia L] kinetic_soul:
I've compiled AOSP Android 4.4 [KitKat] for the Xperia L. It's stock Android compiled from source, without any mods made to it. I uploaded the boot.img, system.img and userdata.img [find links below]. Just download them and use fastboot to flash them onto your Xperia L (please don't try it on some other device).

You can enter fastboot mode on your device by turning the device off, and pressing the Volume Down button and keeping it pressed while connecting the phone to the PC. From there use the fastboot command that comes with the Android SDK in the platform-tools folder to flash these files by typing in:

fastboot flash boot /boot.img

fastboot flash system /system.img

fastboot flash userdata /userdata.img

YOU MUST HAVE UNLOCKED YOUR BOOTLOADER IN ORDER TO FLASH THIS, AND DOING SO WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE.

Learn to unlock your bootloader here: Unlock Xperia L Bootloader.

Good luck and enjoy! :good:

You can also get Google Experience Launcher for it.

system.img: Download here.

boot.img: Download here.

UPDATE: February 2014

Download the new boot.img here with a custom recovery and KitKat support- Download here.

Credits to [MENTION=4984300]The Dark Knight[/MENTION] for this. Thanks alot, man.

userdata.img Download here.

MORE INFO ON HOW TO COMPILE: My Blog.

WORKING:

- Normal calls

- NFC

- Wi-Fi

- Sound

- Camera

- Notification Light

- Aux port

- Deep Sleep

NOT WORKING (as of now):

- Bluetooth

- GPS

- No CPU Deep-Sleep state [RESULT: lower standby and usage time]

- Internal memory will show up as 2GB and not 4GB.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Flash the boot.img from the Phantom Kernel link above. It has been optimized with Kit-Kat and has a custom recovery. Just flash the boot.img with fastboot, then flash Gapps from recovery and reboot.

- Boot into system and enjoy Google Experience Launcher and Google apps (Play Store, etc.).

HIT THAT THANKS BUTTON IF YOU FOUND THIS HELPFUL! :D

Because putting a list of NOT WORKING is as important as the contents of the OP. :)

I hope you got my point.

Sony themselves have quoted

"Even though the software is not suited for everyday use, and important functions like Bluetooth™ and GPS are still disabled, there are actually a lot of things working already. It is possible to make phone calls, send and receive messages, surf the Internet through either the mobile network or Wi-Fi® connection, take photos and shoot video clips. The LED light, NFC and sensors are also working (at least partially)."

[MENTION=5671352]kinetic_soul[/MENTION] your blog post is very detailed and well written. :highfive:

I have collected all the changes to /build from CyanogenMod that are needed to make a flashable zip. all of the commits are in my recaf project on GitHub.
