Look there is a way that can help you make a fresh device put in your external sd card rocket tab 3.1 lite/full or both .zip and make sure that it's not in the device (external) go to recovery wipe dalvik cache and cache and go to mount and storage then format everythen then reboot once again to recover and flash rocket tab but first do a back up then save it on a pc

[Moto X General] lucky13:
As anyone who knows who's bought one, the official griffin Car Dock uses a non standard mount size, making it difficult for those who do not like the standard suction cup mount they offer. (This guy) This guide will show you what you have to do in order to make it accept the standard size ball to allow you to use any mount you want. I used an iMagnet mount with my old S3 and loved it, but due to pain in the a$$ back on the Moto X, using a magnet style mount is not preferable.

This first pic shows the various mounts I had, disassembled, and what parts I used.

They are:

Upper left: Griffin official car dock.

Upper right: My old S3 mount, the iMagnet mount, and the socket piece I will be reusing.

Bottom: The Mountek Snap 2 mount I want to put the Griffin dock on. This mounts in the cd slot, a much better place to put it in my VW.

The only two pieces we really care about right now. The socket from the iMagnet mount, and the socket of the Griffin.
[Moto X General] lucky13:
VERY IMPORTANT! When you slice your thumb open with an exacto knife and come back to your chair, YOU MUST REMOVE THE CAT.

All done with the cutting. I basically just cut the threaded part of the Griffin down until it hit a flat area. If you go to far it starts to get thinner, but if your doing this project, you'll know when to stop.

Remove the cat again.

I threw on some epoxy, secured it over night, and it's as good as new. (take note of the cat's disgust with my project)

There! now your official dock will accept any standard mounting ball! (that's what she said! heeyooo!)
[Moto X General] Wade-0:
This reminds me of all the DIY crap I had to do to the GSM Galaxy Nexus dock to get it to work with my Verizon model. It was a pain, but totally worth it in the end.

(And the cat pics were pretty damn funny)
[Moto X General] Flexia32:
Awesome. Looks like I'll be doing this in my future. Note is I can find one of my old docks.

How's the epoxy holding up?
[Moto X General] lucky13:
Like it would take the force of the gods to separate it. Rough it up good with sandpaper first, clean it good, slather it on, profit.
[Moto X General] Cozume:
Such a cute kitty! Wish mine were more friendly to me, lol! And thanks for the tutorial!
[Moto X General] lucky13:
I would also advise when you have the epoxy securing it, to not let it run into the internal cavity of the main dock, as there are wires and other bits of wizardry in there.

Hi I want to totally reinstall all the software and take the custom rom of my xperia z1. It has an unlocked boot loader.

Can I do this through PC companion?

If not, how would I do it? thanks
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shem2409:
The easiest way is to use Flashtool. Just download an FTF of newest firmware and flash it using the software:

[YOUTUBE]ZfD9kT1DVz0[/YOUTUBE]

Once you are on a stock rom with stock kernel you can restore TA backup (if you have one), this will also relock your bootloader. It is best to restore TA on the same firmware that you did the backup.

Hello,

I tried to update my YP-GS1 with Kies but ended with a device that didn't start (and wasn't recognized by Kies anymore). I installed CM7 on it to be able to continue using it, but I'd like to get back to stock.

I contacted Samsung to get a firmware to flash, but they just told me to try again with Kies...

I saw a thread where somebody offered stocks ROMs but the links on dropbox are dead. Does anybody have these files around please?

[Nook HD, HD+ General] felacio:
I really don't want to come across as if I don't appreciate the work that is going into the CM11 / KitKat builds for the Nook HD because I do and continually look forward to flashing the latest nightlies etc.

But does it seem as if each version from either variant available are less and less stable? initial releases seemed fine while each new version has more and more issues that seem to pop up. I just flashed the latest from the General forum here and lost Play store, once I reflashed my GAPPS and got it back I got odd green screen flashing and terrible performance requiring a reboot which black screened. I had to do a soft reset by holding the power button.

I don't know. Again, appreciate the work, saddened by the current crop, I guess.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] asawi:
And here I am wondering why I don't have any issues at all. Not one single reboot, no loss of functionality, nothing. I am running the latest nightly.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] felacio:
02-03?

Did you swap kernels? Dirty flash? Etc.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] adam_ky:
Did you try factory restore after your google app install?

If not i try doing the restore in settings and see if it resolves the problems. Seems like it usually works for me.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Deleted member 2092952:
If you notice the launcher is now trebuchet. They just started replacing launcher 3 with theirs. So things will be broken or missing. Same with others areas.

I always have a very recent backup and so it doesn't matter. 10.2 went though pains too and so on so forth.

If you want more stable 10.2 is right there. Backup cm11 in recovery and restore it later on when its more mature.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] 50bux:
So...am I the only one who....

Doesn't use Google anymore? Look, I mean I know the paid Koogle-aid dispensers will dog pile on me as a heretic, but CM on my nook is working great for me and in concert with other play stores all is well. I just don't see the need to put anymore money or information in Big GData's pocket.

Just one guys opinion, flame away
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
This is rich. It used to be big M$ that folks dumped on, now Google?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] 50bux:
Rich?

I respectfully disagree. LL you of all people know of the massive holes and security flaws that gapps add to what is mostly a great open source system. I think if people really were to examine just what adding gapps does to your phone as far as adding in avenues for exploitation they wouldn't use it.

Have I said something technically incorrect?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
I'm not disagreeing with your point, I just think it is interesting that folks tend to see big companies as evil and jump on them.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] LaughInYourFace:
All running smooth as a babys bottom
[Nook HD, HD+ General] asawi:
Yes, 02-03. I don't swap any kernels. Clean initial install and then updated from settings menu. And as I said, no issues whatsoever! Working woonderfully, no reboots, no lag, nothing! Just working beautifully!

The only issues I've had with CM11 was in the initial unofficial release there was a screen flicker now and then. That dispappeard a coulpe of releases in. And then last week (?) there was an issue with the screen rotating when putting the device to sleep. That did't have any effect on the device while running, but either way it's fixed now.

And as I said, not one single unwanted reboot! Ever! I have a 16GB HD+ and a 16GB HD running unmodified nightlies. Both of then problem free! I'm (of course) not complaining, just wondering how come some have lots of problems and others don't. Hardware related? Dirty installs? Messed around with stuff best left alone?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] wellersl:
That's been my theory since I got my first Android device. More specifically, hardware revisions.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] jpisini:
I have done it in the past just to see if android would still be useable if Google stopped supporting it. It is but it is easier with them. More security would be nice.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] anactoraaron:
I understand what you mean. Seriously if I knew enough about caf and kernels, etc. I would find a way to build some form of 4.4.2 pure AOSP. Stock just seems so much better with my N5 and I would love to see it in action on my Nook HD+. But I don't know that much and am too busy to start learning complicated things like that (I own a business and root&mod as a limited hobby). I'm just grateful to [MENTION=3654172]verygreen[/MENTION] & helpful folks like [MENTION=349198]leapinlar[/MENTION] to have some kind of 4.4 emmc on this mostly abandoned (by B&N) device. I think that CM in general has gone downhill from a stability perspective since CM10 (basing that on a few devices that got 'official' cm).
[Nook HD, HD+ General] felacio:
Well, did a full wipe and flashed the latest 02-04 build. So far so good. No horrible performance after an hour requiring a reset and it hasn't gone black on me, but that usually takes a couple days. I should have learned long ago to just do a full wipe and flash when things aren't going right. :eek:
[Nook HD, HD+ General] barth2:
Just for my future reference , what is meant by full wipe? I did a wipe data and factory reset before and went through the setup screens again but there was clearly still some stuff left, like data folders from apps previously installed.

Thanks
[Nook HD, HD+ General] jpisini:
To get rid of personal data you have to format data under mounts. Word of warning anything not backed up will be gone.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
A wipe data /factory reset with CWM is not really a full wipe. It leaves your media files intact. Even a format of /data in 'mounts and storage' leaves the media files. To do a full wipe you need to format 'data and datamedia'. That truly wipes all data, including media files.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Nolfer:
While we're at it, what's a dirty flash / re flash, and how does one change kernels in a nook device? I thought kernels were always included in a rom zip as boot.img files and you could not flash a different one :eek:
[Nook HD, HD+ General] jpisini:
A dirty flash is just installing a new Rom without wiping anything first. Depends on what you are flashing whether a dirty flash is OK. Usually if you are going from one CM nightly to another say CM 10.2 from yesterday to CM 10.2 from today you can get away without wiping caches. If on the other hand you want to go from CM 10.2 to Cm 11 you really should wipe caches first, same going from say CM to Carbon it is recommended to wipe first.

There are a few kernels out there but they are specific to certain Roms. There were some touch kernels for CM 10.2 but they only work on early releases not the stable. Unless you have a specific need I would't worry about flashing a new kernel.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Nolfer:
I see. Can I install, say, a kitkat rom from a jb one (and viceversa), doing only factory reset (system, data, cache), thus without wiping datamedia?

More importantly, does wiping datamedia influence anything (configuration wise) that latches to rom or kernel? I mean, is there any information stored in the files that are wiped by "wipe datamedia" that is used by the kernel or the rom?

I'm asking this because I currently have the audio out jack kinda broken since I've tried some kk roms (delivers very bad quality audio, whereas the speaker has good quality) and I don't know what else to do. I've tried to change from kk to jb without datamedia wiping, but this didnt solve the problem, so I'm asking to know if maybe the kernel stored some bad audio quality config file there (in datamedia) and a wipe there could solve the problem.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
No, datamedia has nothing to do with that. But going backwards (eg, CM11 to CM10.2) can be problematic. You may need to wipe /system manually too before you flash back to CM10.2 ROM.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Nolfer:
What do you mean by manually?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
Boot to CWM, go to mounts and storage and format /system. Do this before you flash the new ROM.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Nolfer:
doesn't factory reset include that?
[Nook HD, HD+ General] leapinlar:
No, factory reset just formats /data and /cache. Usually the ROM installer formats /system for you, but going backwards can cause an issue with that. That is why I recommended a manual format of /system.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mensis_82:
Hey Guys,

I tried to root my Samsung S4 GT-I9502 (OS Android 4.3), for that I found this website:

http://marrkdaviid.com/2013/08/fix-caller-id-install-google-play-on-the-galaxy-s4-i9502/

But it failed (more information below) and I had the following error message and no wifi.

I am able to put the device into download mode, though I keep getting this error message when I try flashing the device in Odin.

(here someone with a similar problem: http://androidforums.com/international-galaxy-s4-all-things-root/768632-sos-cannot-open-gt-i9502-after-failed-boot.html)

"Complete(Write) operation failed."

When attempting to flash the device, it quickly goes through boot.img, recovery.img and system.img (when it should take longer for each step, and you should see the little green progress bar move), before failing. Does this mean that Odin is having issues writing to the device?

I live in China and I just bought the phone, I needed 5 days to download the necessary files, because most download pages are blocked in China. So I am loosing my last nerve right now.

I am pretty confident that I have the correct Samsung drivers installed. I don’t have Samsung Kies installed. I have even tried using a different computer (Laptops), and two different ROMs.

I have tried flashing the below ROMs:

I9502ZNUCMG2_I9502CHUCMG2_I9502ZNUCMG2_HOME.tar.md5

I9502ZNUEMK3_I9502CHUEMK3_I9502ZNUEMK3_SVA.tar.md5

Someone with a the same problem tried the 'Firmware upgrade and initialization' option in Samsung Kies, but it didn’t work, so I didn’t try. (Here the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2382979)

Instead I tried a recovery. I used Odin 3.07 and the following file:

i9502-cwm-recovery.tar.md5

I got my phone back to work for a while, I reset the phone, just in case. But know I can’t switch the Wifi on and the phone wants to Reboot.

So I allowed the phone to Reboot, I clicked on “reboot system now” and then on “Yes – (I forgot what was written behind the Yes, but I didn’t just click on the normal Yes, I clicked on the Yes - …)

The problem here: The Phone changed to a China Unicom Screen and stayed like that. After 5 h I took the battery out, but I couldn’t restart the phone.

So I did an cwm recovery and know I am afraid to reboot. The Wifi is not working and I can’t find any information about how to fix it.

So please help me. Do I reboot? Can I already install SVA ROM, although I couldn’t flash the Stock Firmware? Do I send the phone back and give up?

Please let me know if you need any other information to be able to help me.

PS: This is the first time that I flash a smart phone. And although I already spent several days now, searching the internet for how-to-dos, tips & tricks, guidelines, Q&As and god knows what, I still do not fully understand what exactly I am doing here. Hence, I would be very happy to receive somewhat easy understandable answers.

Thank you so much for your help!

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwert940:
I installed CM 11 on my NOOK HD accoridng to instructions by "verygreen". I opened the game requiring Google Play Services(it allows me to log into Google+ account) and when I firstly clicked on Sign In button there was a dialog informing that I have to update my Google Play Services or the app won't work properly. So I went to the Play Store installed the update and after this the game doesn't even start and gives only FC error. Logcat says "The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the resources are included.". Any ideas what can be wrong? I would be grateful for any help.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2092952:
My best guesses:

According to searching and the error itself it appears to do with something blocking it from getting a service from google services...

For instance, if your using cm's privacy settings, that could be blocking the app from having access to one it wants.

Another instance, if it requires location, and that's disabled in cm's settings then it may not be happy.

It could be also possible I think that it may not be compatible with cm11 though since you didn't mention the game name, you'll need to figure that out and the problem too.

Addition: Double check to make sure you flashed the correct gapps for cm11.

Hopefully this helps.

I finally said goodbye to my Note 3 yesterday evening in exchange for a Nexus 5.

I just want to say thank you to this community for all your efforts and hard work on getting the phone to where we could customize, make partitions for roms, etc.

I bought the phone the week it came out for AT&T, and was ecstatic! Then I found out the bootloader was locked along with SELinux enforcing. Next, all the promotions a week or two later for the Galaxy Gear for free with the phone, or a free tablet, or this that or the other. I felt annoyed that we didn't originally get the deals.

Then KitKat comes out on everything left and right, I buy my wife a Moto G, and I fall back in love with a more stock Android. It was all over from there. I decided to sell my Note, and get an all Google experience instead.

So farewell, I hope AT&T stops being a--holes about bootloaders, and see you around!
