[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Goatshocker:
Hey.

I have managed to get a really funny issue with, sadly, my moms Xperia P.

The P is running Nemesis kernel v6.3 and Honami MW v8, and of course unlocked BL, and have been working okay-ish(I cant say I particularly like the P).

Since its my mom's phone, and shes... well, not the youngest nor most tech-savvy person around, Ive done what I can to make it as 'user friendly' as possible.

But this time I mustve fked up badly...

Heres what I did: I was checking if I could get the AOSP incoming call screen in the same manner as the lock screen, so I tried renaming semcPhone.apk to something else, thinking the worst thing that could happen was a boot loop... Boy was I wrong...

Not only did the phone not start(no surprise there), but it even froze before the first "vibrate", making it impossible to enter recovery :eek:

Okay, no worries, I can still enter fastboot... So I went into fastboot and reflashed the boot - nope, still froze right away...

After much struggle to no avail, I tried a 'fastboot erase system' and lo' and behold! The stupid thing didnt freeze right away anymore and I could enter recovery!

Once In recovery I restored a backup I made a couple of weeks ago, and finally the phone started again! yay! :victory:

All is good then, right? .... nope...

Did a reboot, and it did the exact. same. thing. again. And I had to erase the system and restore the backup for the phone to boot again... wtf...

Okay, maybe erasing the system wasnt enough, right? So I did a factory reset, formatted system, data and cache, and went ahead of installing a fresh copy of Honami MW.......... Phone froze right away.... back to square 1...

Okay, so I repeated the process, but instead of installing a fresh MW, I restored the backup - phone booted fine :eek: Restarted the phone and back to square one again...

I tried installing a fresh copy a few more times, and it refused to boot each time. But restoring the backup boots the phone fine every time... whaaat?

The phone works perfectly fine once its booted, and I cant see anything wrong in the system at all, yet everytime I do a reboot it freezes right away and I have to erase system through fastboot(to get into recovery at all) and restore my ~2 week old backup. Its even enough to just do an "advanced restore" and chose system, leaving data and cache alone.

Ok so.. TL;DR: Phone freezes right away on first reboot, a fresh install of the ROM doesnt work - only restoring a backup do(it makes no sense!!)

I am completely out of ideas as to what can be the issue here... I have never experienced this kind of issue - especially not just by renaming "wrong" file(which gets restored during the reinstallation processes anyway) :eek:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Try flashing stock ftf completely and see if the issue persists(I guess it shouldn't)

Cheers,

AJ
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Goatshocker:
Mm yes, flashing it back to stock ftf is the only thing I havent tried yet... But it still makes no sense. Why does it behave like this, regardless of complete wipes? And why is only a backup working, and not a clean install :s... My head's gonna explode over this >_<
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Same here, have never been able to restore nandroid backup, always boots oince then its dead.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Goatshocker:
Anyone else have any bright ideas? I havent tried stock ftf yet(dont have access to the phone yet :)), but somehow I have my doubts it will work...

I get the feeling the phone fails to mount the various partitions upon boot, but when checking permissions everything is exactly as it should be. Obviously Ive tried running 'fix permissions' in CWM, but that only results in a "/bin/sh: fix_permissions not found" which I also noticed my ZTE Blade says(which works fine despite all the cruel experiments Ive done on it lol).

Ive also tried to do a fresh install of BB and SU, as well as the whole rooting process(even though the ROM is already rooted) to no avail. (edit: also reinstalled recovery several times...)

Anyway, is there any app that can do a fix_permissions? Might be worth a shot...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperianPro:
Boot it wait 5-10 mins and then shut it down,do it again,and again until phone Boots needed to do it three times on Xperia U.

It only related to stock custom roms od 4.1.2.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Goatshocker:
You mean boot it to where it freezes(right away) and wait 10mins, or boot into system and wait 10mins? If the first, I think Ive tried that a few times. Doesnt hurt to try again though...

Do you have to do this every boot or just once after a flash?

Still makes no sense why it just started doing this "out of the blue"(If we ignore the fact I renamed a file, cause I seriously doubt that that specific action could cause this issue).

Edit: Dude.... That **** actually worked! I didnt wait 10mins, but maybe 2-3... Forced shutdowned it and started it roughly 5 times, the 6th time it started! Im currently rebooting it all the time(3 times so far... 4 now lol.. ok 5..) and it has started every time!!

Thank you for your tip :) (I should make some more accounts so I can hit 'thanks' a few more times lol)

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deep Nox:
Did you read the thread about the rom you installed? Some of the CM 10.x roms have bugs that were never fixed. This could be one of them. If the usb isn't a listed problem in the thread, try a full clean and reflash.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juststarting:
I have an international version of s3. the first rom i had flashed was foxhound based on 4.1.2. after a couple of months, i decided to find other roms to run as my daily driver. flashed a bunch of roms til i come to know of slimbean. flashed the one based on 4.3. after a week or two, wanted to try ultimarom v16. i backed up, wiped everything like i used to before flashing but this time something weird happened. i didnt get all the customizations that the rom is offering, just some minor ones.

so, i was wondering if i had done something wrong and missing anything. tried flashing it again but there were no changes. an example of whats missing is the inability to set toggles on the notification shade. cant even change the tiles on on the shade as well.

its kinda weird cause i read thru the ultimarom thread and those stuff were suppose to be in the rom.

thanks for ur help!! :D
[General Questions and Answers] frosho:
I am in the process of making a scheduling APP. When customer's make an appointment,I wanted the business to send them a copy via the app that's connected to that person's phone number. The person will have a username and password but I want them to receive the data via the phone number rather than an address to simplify things. What are the security concerns with this method? Could someone spoof a person's number. For example : I make a username and password but trick the app into thinking that my phone number is different than what I have so any schedules people send to that phone number go to that spoofed number? I'm a noob when it comes to this kind of stuff and it's my first post on here. Go easy on me guys and please tell me all the security concerns with this
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigernero:
HTC ONE brand to no brand see an OTA only just!!

I open this post to see people like me sitrova in this situation,

and figuring out how to solve.

--- HTC --- One brand Vodafone,

1) put SOFF,

2) Sbrandizzato in ITA No Brand therefore cid VODAP405 in HTC__405,

3) installed ruu:

RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed

So basically rendered stock no brand ita my htc.

The problem is that after doing the ota has always taken them up to take one HTC to 4.3,

I redid the procedure three days ago because I felt the google edition,

and then after making all stock,

HTC sees me only one update ota,

from version 4.1 to 4.1 europe europe 1.28.401.7 1.29.401.12

from then doing OTA further research tells me that there are no other updates for your phone.

How is this possible? Is there a way to solve??

Hi there, could somebody please tell me how to flash a custom rom like cynogemod, the easiest way thanx in advance

But the easiest way is the most common, root your tablet, install a custom recovery and via the custom recovery flash the custom rom .zip file :)

The Colo OS firmware is really nice to use.

[Micromax A116] axis.meister:
At 599MB this ROM is huge!!! I wonder what makes it this big; SLD is around 250MB in size. But I like the theming of this ROM, anything other than the dull black/dark blue background for setting and the pull-down menu is welcome.
[Micromax A116] Alb_trp:
score is good.. as well as theme is very superb.. the very first android phone i have used with such awesome colors. but its eating battery..
[Micromax A116] Alb_trp:
theming and colours are the brilliant and very first time for me in android environment. i hop the phone with big battery and RAM would make wonders with color os. SLD is really wonderful very minimalistic and i'm using 1.5 now. but i like to get white background dialer like colour os for SLD.
[Micromax A116] WalkerBales:
SLD is an AOSP ROM that is pure stock !! It includes stock dialer which has a holo theme... To get a white background, you can use any of the custom dialers available on Play Store !! [MENTION=4448971]cmahendra[/MENTION] Correct me if I am wrong........
[Micromax A116] cmahendra:
@Alb_trp Thanks you also liked SLD. Every rom should be unique in its own category. Users do choose as per their likings and then review as per their conscience.

@WalkerBales You are right. Every rom should be unique in its own category and I take care to make all of my roms different than each other. Users do choose as per their likings and then review as per their conscience. The last "Mantra" of each rom, should be "Buglessly Perfect".

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Anndrey7:
Hi, i can't find a good firmware for my S6500D. I got into bootloop a long time ago (1 year) and i decided to repair it. I flashed a random firmware and my phone is like crap even at 1.1 ghz. I can't find an universal S6500DXXLD3 firmware, that was the best if i remember corect. Thanks ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] CoX26:
Well, seeing that you are from Romania and you have the same carrier as I do , I would recommend this one..

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5anvp1y3u0sjrne/S6500DXXLC4_S6500DXXLC3_S6500DORLLC2_HOME.tar.md5

Edit: I remembered why S6500DXXLD3 was so important , you need it for Peter's Rom right ? everyone seems to try that nowadays probably because of the lag present in most cm versions for our phone. If I remember well , I tried Peter's ROM on this firmware and it worked great.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Anndrey7:
Thanks man. I didn't know how i done but i booted cm 11 on my mini and the lag was insane. I tought that i was used with my nexus 4 smooth but now all make sense. Can you tell me a pretty fast rom for this phone? I broke my nexus 4 and i have to stay with this one almost a month..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] CoX26:
Well ..if you want speed I'd say ..stick with stock gingerbread ...if you are as disgusted of gb ui as I am go with cm10 (i use the 12.26 version, which is also the last one) , in my opinion it's faster than cm10.x and cm11
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Anndrey7:
ok, but now i have a problem. i got bootloop with the firmware you posted. any sugestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] CoX26:
Try getting it to recovery mode and wipe data/factory reset.

Optional: Flash cwm.

If you can't get to recovery, try getting it to download mode , then disagree with the terms (press volume down key) and try pressing recovery combination fast (VOL+ + VOL- + HOME)

One more thing , I'm curios , where did you buy your phone ? Orange store or sites like emag,cel etc ? Because this is the stock rom for Romania(Orange) ..and I never had any problems with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Anndrey7:
Orange.

(iti multumesc mult pentru ajutor. Nu mai stiam nimic de mini 2 si aveam nevoie de el destul de urgent. Am reusit sa il fac sa mearga, dar wi-fi ul nu porneste. Am gasit cum as putea sa il rezolv. Daca mai am probleme, sper ca pot apela la tine:))) )

This is not my work I found it on Chinese forum and just sharing.

So i found this AOSP ROM on Chinese forum here:

http://bbs.gfan.com/forum.php?mod=v...=page=1&filter=typeid&typeid=8314&typeid=8314

It is for all versions F240LSK, E980/E988and F220

I have been using this for a week now, its super smooth and I have no problems.

Battery life is great over a day of normal use I can get around 4 Hours +/-15min of Screen on Time. (Morning Time Data/Evening Time Wifi)

Note: The ROM by default flashes F240 KERNEL, E980/E988 and F220 Kernels are provided and must be flashed after ROM flash.

ROM: http://pan.baidu.com/share/init?shareid=2851183795&uk=1392791443 pass:dlyu

E980/E988 Kernel: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3uTXQ1 pass:m8s9

F220 Kernel: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1i3uTXQ1 pass:m8s9

No need to flash baseband as the ROM won't flash any baseband by itself.

This can be used on any F240 model L/S/K and you just need to flash the ROM no need of flashing Kernel separately.

Read the stickies and how-to threads like the first 3 threads in the General section first bro so you`ll know what to do when your N5 arrrives. Most custom roms are quite stable and the best way is to try some and keep the one you like most
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kronflux:
personally, I like to stick with official builds of CyanogenMod. I recommend sticking with EITHER the official Clockworkmod build for a recovery, OR use PhilZ Touch recovery, as it adds quite a few features, as well as an easy to use theme system so you can customize a bit.

You're good sticking with the default CyanogenMod kernel, but I personally like Chaos kernel, as it also adds more features, as well as more customization in terms of performance and such. Just be careful with it if you use it.

But it all depends on what you like, the way you use your phone, or what you use it for. How often you use it, what apps you like, etc.

You might even want to just stick with the stock rom for a while. It's pretty good by default, and if you're used to another phone OS, it will certainly help you get used to Android in general again. Particularly KitKat.

Definitely as mentioned before, read the stickies for tutorials, available roms, etc.
