[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Hi, i followed the thread through.

Something worth noting is during the phone cycling from red to green, it vibrated once this time on green which it hasnt done before.

Im still curious about what voltage the battery should be reading. It's still at 3.1v, although I've seen batteries being sold for this phone which are stated as 3.7v. I'm not sure if that's of any relevance though.

I currently have the phone charging with a rubberband Around the power button after reading this worked for others.

Will continue reading through the threads, if anyone has any ideas in the meantime please let me know.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Just to update, i left the phone on charge overnight and when Trying to turn on today the led will flash green once. Nothing further from this point.

The battery is measuring in at 3.5v today. My plan is to leave it on charge a further few hours before attempting to flash again tonight after i download a different stock firmware, just incase there was some issue with the firmware i tried yesterday.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nanostray:
I suggest you use the firmware from SUS which you can decrypt with flashtool and convert to a .ftf.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Ok thank you, I'll do that. Will read up on the details and update later tonight once I've had a chance . Thanks again.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nanostray:
For saying thanks, you got a thank-button ;)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
I downloaded the firmware through SUS, converted to ftf using flashtool. The file appears in windows explorer under the flashtool>Firmware directory as Xperia SP_Generic_12.0.A.2.254.ftf, but when trying to select the firmware within flashtool the file is not there for me to select. I thought to try dragging and dropping the file in to flashtool window however no luck. Not sure why this is happening, will have a play around but if any suggestions please let me know.

EDIT: Think ill try to redownload the firmware through SUS
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Managed to find the firmware in flashtool after redownloading through SUS. Unfortunately after flashing the phone is still no better, the same symptoms are occuring.

If anyone has any other ideas worth trying please let me know.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Could the charging ic perhaps be bad?

The phone doesn't seem to have enough power to boot. During the led loop i mentioned the battery voltage varies from 2.9v ( red led) up to 3.2v (green led), after green the led turns off the voltage seems to gradually come back down to around 2.9v, the red led turns on and the loop continues. This is all while the phone is plugged in to the wall charger.

After charging through last night the phone did have a green led flash briefly and the phone measured in at 3.5v in the morning, no power though.

If anyone has any thoughts on this please let me know.

Edited to mention the phone does vibrate once if i disconnect the battery for 20 seconds, hold the power button and then plug the charger in first before i reattach the battery while holding the power button. Nothing else happens unfortunately.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braxley1:
Just to update this for anyone who may be having issues.

I had tried to charge the battery using a lipo charger and flash the firmware after my last update on this thread a few months ago, however the issue remained.

The phone has been sitting since, however decided to give it another go today and it is now working.

Here's what i done:

Reinstalled Sony update service and phone drivers. To connect my phone in SUS i had to remove the battery for approx 30 seconds> plug USB in> hold volume down and then plug battery back in. The phone then connected and i was able to begin downloading the firmware. In my situation an update was available. During this time the LED on phone was solid green. Halfway through downloading, the red light appeared and the phone disconnected from the program. I repeated the steps mentioned above to connect the phone again (remove battery etc) and the download continued until completion (Solid green LED throughout).

As per instructions in SUS, once installation completed i disconnected the phone and attempted to boot. No luck on the first attempt. I charged for an hour or so and got the orange LED for the first time, tried booting and the phone is back functional.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niki_help:
I will just update what worked for me:

1. Prepared a wall charger

2. I unplugged the battery from the slot of the motherboard.

3. While the battery was unplugged I plugged the usb cable from the wall charger to the phone.

4. After Sony Logo appear (about 3-4 seconds after plugging the cable) then plug back the battery to the motherboard.

5. The Phone starts to charge the battery and I was able to turn the phone on.

What I think it is battery issue because the battery can't give enough V/A to start the phone and the bootloader receives wrong information that is why on unplugged battery with USB charger I actually jumped over and then plugging back battery just push the battery on charging in the midst.

Now I ordered new battery and I will see am I right or not.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RichTJ99:
Hi,

I am running the stock rooted verizon rom. I noticed that my phone seems to be randomly rebooting pretty often. I am ready to try something else, though I am not wild about trying a ton of roms. Stock, rooted, the least amount of crap with the most stability is what I am looking for.

After being a die hard CM user for years, I just want something that works perfectly with great battery life.

Any recommendations?

Thanks,

Rich

Just wondering am I the only one whose cores go offline using Omni rom, and then don't come back on till a couple of reboots to kickstart em, and if I ain't then whoever else may have had this problem please help, core 2 goes off first mostly and that's ok till its only one core but then more go off till I'm only on core 0 and that causes crazy lags and heats up the phone, any solution or anything I can try out will be helpful

[Samsung Infuse 4G] androidnooob98:
Is there any way to return to JB from Kitkat without going back to the stock GB rom? I can't seem to find any roms or pit packages that aren't GB or Froyo. Am i just not digging deep enough?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] androidnooob98:
Bump
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
The infuse was release several yrs ago. It started with froyo 2.2. The GB was release later 2.3.

PIT files is the map for the stock android system by samsung. There are no pit beyond 2.2 or 2.3.

Anything later is cm9, cm10 and cm11 - these run on different file system.

if you want to go from kk to jb, find a jb rom + jb gapp and boot into cwm, wipe data, cache, dalvik and flash.

if something messes up, go back to gb and start over
[Samsung Infuse 4G] androidnooob98:
AFAIK you can't just flash back like that because of file system formats. JB runs on MTD and i don't think that KK does. But i'm trying to restore a 4.3 backup now. Will report back with results. I just tried to flash 4.3 and it gave me a red triangle with a status 7 error which i knew would happen.

[EDIT]

Well i'll be damned. It worked! And coincidentally I acidentally labeled the wrong backup as 4.3. I restored the SGSIV 4.2.2 ROM.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
when changing a file system, sometimes you may need to flash a rom twice...

and btw..you're welcome

Hello,

I've noticed some strange differences between two identical N7's:

I bought a N7 (16 GB, WiFi) in May 2013, it has been updated to KitKat 4.2.2.

A month ago my brother bought another one, it's also updated to KiKat 4.2.2.

Both tablet works fine, I think...

But..., on my brothers tablet the Asphalt 8 game (and a few other) downloaded directly from GooglePlay runs fine, on my tablet not even want to start.

About a couple of times I reset my tablet to it's factory (default) settings, reinstall the apps, but nothing changed, some apps (usually heavier games) still refuse to start.:(

What's wrong with my N7?

I've recently flashed my Sprint HTC One over to MetroPCS a couple days ago.They Reminded me that the Sprint SimCard was inside my otterbox. i was using the stock rom until i wanted to just browse some of the latest kitkat roms. I flashed to the Beanstalk 4.4.2 Rom. Setup when fine until i notice i had no signal what so ever. So i put back in the sim card just to be curious and i rebooted the phone and i had very small signal i was able to call my VM to see if i could make calls and i could send text messages but the issue now is that i cant get any data. i switch to different network settings to: CDMA/EvDo to Global ect. And 3g would pop up for only 5secs and disappear. So i tried another Rom out to see if it was just that one and it happen to be the same problem over again. When installed the rom this time with the sim card it was trying to pick up data but and it called *22896 and stated it couldn't pick up data. it wouldn't allow me to connect to Google play or Google now unless i pulled the sim card out and reboot the phone. it only does this on ASOP Roms that goes through the sim card setup on the first boot On sense 5.5/4.4 Im able to get data but i cant connect to the play store Do i need to SuperCID my phone? or do i need to try the international Roms? please help.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sliyk:
hi everyone!

its been a while since i have posted here :) [was lost in the apple wilderness for a few years]

i have an n9005 and my laptop is samsung 5 series ultrabook with windows 8.1 64bit running, this lappy has one usb 3.0 port

i have never managed to connect the note in 3.0 mode, this happened only once by accident when the phone also notitifed me that it is connected in 3.0 usb mode but never after that.

the usb 3.0 port charges the phone fine but does not show it as been connected to the computer, not in device manager or anywhere else, 2.0 works fine.

ill be grateful if anyone can shed some light on this for me, apologies if im breaking any rules!

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete4k:
Since you said you had connection once by accident, I would start with basics: try another cable and make sure ports are fine. charging uses only 2 wires, all the rest is for data. On my Note 3 USB port is very finicky when using USB3 cable even for charging, I have to wiggle and push hard to get it to charge, USB2 cable works fine, so I'm not even sure if its phone port or Samsung cable, just waiting for it to fail altogether before trouble shooting.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
The USB 3 thing is quite stupid from Samsung - but it makes some sense if you think of it as 99% marketing on top of which some guys decided to provide some form of emergency help but without compromising other things too much :rolleyes:

Bottom line - USB3 is not active by default! Once you have it plugged it only goes to USB2 and you need to go to Notifications and click on "Connected as a media device" - and then modify that to "MTP on USB3" or something like that. That checkbox will NOT stick (so next time you will NOT be in USB3 mode) and will also be converted back to USB 2 after 10 minutes (I presume 10 minutes of inactivity, since otherwise that would be very, very stupid, but nothing will surprise me on that).

Whatever you saw on the PC it was most likely a message telling you that the device might be performing faster in a USB3 port - even if you already were plugged in a USB3 port :rolleyes: What Windows wanted to say was more along the lines "the device might perform better in USB 3 mode" :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete4k:
I'm not sure where did you get the idea of USB3 being a gimmick, or stupid, but it is neither. I was just copying my pictures folder to my computer, 170MB worth took instant on USB3, where it took over 10 sec using USB 2, I wish all gimmicks worked that well.

Yeah, you have to activate it on the phone, like you have to activate MTP or PTP mode, maybe for compatibility with some obscure software, who knows. BTW I read somewhere USB3 does work on Win only , so all bets off if you have Mac.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xclub_101:
Big words from somebody that two posts above did not even feel the need to mention that USB3 needs to be MANUALLY activated EACH TIME :)

That being said for your own example above - you "gained" 10 seconds to transfer those files, and you lost 10 seconds since you had to activate USB3 mode (which generated a delay not only since you had to activate it on the phone but also since the PC had to re-detect the device). That is precisely the definition of a gimmick :)

Yes, USB might be interesting one-time when you will really need to transfer 10 gbytes of data quickly from your internal storage (which I don't use that much anyway), but before that you really need to know how to activate this :)

And keep in mind that for the "external microSD" there is no real difference in speed (but a very large one in heat and power consumption).

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copitlory:
The Best CPU Governor for Performance and also Battery life seems to be Interactive or Intellidemand.

For indepth Kernel Benchmarks and CPU Governor tests go to my thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2625656

Here are SunSpider 1.0.2 benchmarks to prove the point.

(Lower is better)

ondemand: 1,200ms

intellidemand: 540ms

interactive: 520ms

conservative: 650ms

iPhone 5s:450ms

Conclusion: It is amazing that with this phone we can achieve performance that is close to the 64bit processor of the iPhone 5S. Screw Apple. (Just Kidding) :) Interactive is the best CPU governor. The end.

Lastly, you may wonder why I only posted Sunspider Benchmark results because that is only a javascript test and doesn't prove how the kernel will perform overall. First of all let me state that those numbers are after extensive testing under numerous different Stock and KitKat roms and Kernel combinations. Secondly, in terms of AnTuTu and Quadrant scores, you can expect them to be the same across all the CPU governors above. But the sunspider can be helpful in gauging browser performance. And since most users browse the web on their smartphones, it is wise to switch away from the default ondemand or ondemanplus which is a much more conservative version of ondemand, and instead use intellidemand or interactive or conservative.

It is interesting that conservative provides good performance and sunspider results. Maybe if you really want to be sure you have good battery life, you should stick with conservative. Although in all honesty, battery life is dependent on your brightness, and subsequently amount of screen on time, and then of course, the amount of CPU intensive tasks you perform like gaming, or Web Browsing. So differences between governors and battery life will be minimal if you do not adjust your user behavior...

I'm using a LS980 Sprint LG G2. I suspect that across variants results should be the same since SoC are based on the Snapdragon 800.

[HTC Wildfire S] GERJDOY:
MY ISSUE seems unique!! Please, is anyone able to figure this out?

I have a HTC Wilfire S A510e that I've been trying to root for three months!

It's stats are:

***LOCKED***

Marvel PVT SHIP S-ON RL

MICROP-0451

Radio 7.57.39.10M

Android: 2.3.5

ROM: 2.26.401.3

Kernal: 2.6.35.10

HBoot: 1.09.

HTC Sense Version: 2.1

SO...I created my a/c on HTCDEV.COM, tick all boxes etc. No need to update bootloader, as per instructions, so I "proceed to next step".

I created \Android ( in My Documents) on my Dell Latitude D630 (using Windows XP); downloaded the "Fastboot binary, Windows (unzip the file before executing)" file [Fastboot-Zip] to \Android & also the recommended Android SDK zip, Java Runtime Environment. I already have HTC Sync 3.3.63. All unzipped. I set up my HTC- fastboot off, usb debugging enabled, bootloader screen up> click on fastboot, usb into it, the phone registers "Fastboot USB" and then open the cmd prompt on my pc.

The problem I encounter is this:

On the cmd prompt instructions:

I open cmd prompt- My pc cmd line says c:\documents and settings\administrater>[blinking cursor]. I type- c: cd \Android at the blinking cursor. That's okay as my cmd line returns- c:\documents and settings\administrater>[blinking cursor] again.

I type- c: \Android> fastboot oem get_identifier_token at the blinking cursor [hit enter] and...

Nothing happens! Nothing at all- not even the "waiting for device" problem that seems to be common at this stage.

I'm meant to get:

INFO <Please cut following info>

INFO <<<< Identifier Token Start >>>>

INFO {**multi lines of numerical text**}

I get nothing!

What's going wrong?? I've done weeks and weeks of research using google search; read hundreds of threads on multiple sites; in frustration I've even asked a question on Yahoo Answers, Android Forums & emailed HTCdev, but had only one answer and it was to use another port and another cable, both of which I've done, neither worked.

I just don't get it. Any assistance would be fantastic.

Thanks, Gerry
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
First things first, your problem is not unique..........just less often found

The reason you are not able to get an Identifier token is because of HTC Sync............. HTC Sync usually tends to block any ADB or Fastboot commands

So all you have to do is uninstall HTC Sync, don't worry about it as uninstalling it won't remove the drivers
[HTC Wildfire S] GERJDOY:
Thanks very much for replying csoulr666

I promptly uninstalled HTC Sync, leaving:

HTC BMP USB Driver (Ver: 1.0.5375 ) 0.35MB

HTC Driver Installer (4.5..001 ) 2.82MB

and have tried the "get token" process again.

It has not worked.

Do you think that I should also uninstall the HTC Driver Installer?
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
It should work now IMHO, did you see if your device is being recognized using "fastboot devices"???

Plus setting the folder to apply commands("cd"), try using the complete path that comes in the address bar in My Computer/Windows Explorer..........It would be like C................documents and settings......blah blah blah
