[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davoss:
Hello,

I have a strange problem with my Nexus. My power button is acting strange. Long hold brings up power menu, but:

- short press does not turn screen off

- Smart cover also does not turn screen off

- double tap to status bar does not turn screen off

- 15 seconds of timeout also does not turn screen off.

What is happening? Thank you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrizmaticSmoke:
So your screen will not turn off at all besides powering off the device?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davoss:
Thats right.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PrizmaticSmoke:
Well i don't think the power button itself is the problem since it works to power it off and on, and since the screen wont sleep by other methods either.

Did you flash a new ROM, kernel, or other mod before this happened?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lost_in_Wa:
First time rooting a Knox device, I have flashed a couple of s3's before and this is the first time I have had issues.

I have attached my screen shot of what I pushed.

I tried with CF-Autoroot

Any help is appreciated since at this moment I can't figure it out.

Phone is Sprint with the newest ota 4.3.

SD is a Virgin freshly formatted

Model is SPH-710

I have searched but haven't found any solution.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobmundo:
My D2VZW has been having intermittent issues with receiving MMS and connecting to any data networks. I'm thinking it's due to me continually updating the ROM but not radio. Does this sound right? Currently I'm running CM 10.2.1 (4.3.1) on the I535VRBLK3 baseband. Anyone have any ideas on what I could/should update to? I see tons of items in the download section but have no clue on what to update to. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Flash the VRBMF1 firmware from Invisiblek's firmware thread. This will update your modem (aka baseband), tz, sbl1, sbl2 and I think one other partition to 4.1.2 VRBMF1. Most if not all 4.3 AOSP roms included code from VRBMF1. If I'm not mistaken, they recommended users to upgrade their firmware to VRBMF1 months early in the fall.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tejasn11:
] PLEASE HELP!!Su binary not installed and SuperSu cannot install it.

I have Xperia U awhich i had rooted with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 withouth unlocking the bootloader.

Recently my phone failed to start at the screen got stucked on the Xperia logo so i had to repair the installation by updating the phone with ICS from update service.

After that my phone seems to be half rooted, it installs the root apps like SuperSu , busybox but it has lost the su binary files.

The SuperSu gives the error 'Su binary not installed and SuperSu cannot install it'. I know this is a common problem i searched a lot on it and the best solution i fiund was to flash the SuperSu zip file from Clockwork Mod recovery.

But i dont have CWM as i didnt unlock my bootloader while rooting and i tried to install it but it didnt get installed as there was no su binary.

I cant un-root my phone i cant re-root it. I have tried everything but nothing works.

Is there no way i can have root access again?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] timmy5822:
you will stuck at the boot image cause u need to unlock boot loader, for the root, you need to aware that the ICS 4.0.1.a.0.283 easier to root but 4.0.1.b.0.112 and above most root software cant do the root, u better install those rom to root, and after you root, just install x-part and u will install the CWM easily through the apps, hope is help for you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tejasn11:
Sorry i cant understand what you are trying to say. My problem is i am already rooted and i can install SuperSu but it gives error that su binary is not installed. I tried to unroot and re-root from 'Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18' but the process gets stuck midway and nothing changes.

The only possible solution i found to install su binary was from CWM but i dont have cwm and there is no way to install cwm without supersu permission.

Is there any other way to install su binary?

Or is there any other way to install cwm without it needing su binary?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
Define 'process gets stuck halfway'
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tejasn11:
It gets stuck at the reboot stage. It doesn't reboot the phone when i restore the Root Me file.

When i rebooted it manually after waiting for a long time, it corrupted my phone with icons turning black and phone slowing down. So i had to repair the insatllation again with update service.

If i re-root it with some other method or maybe with 'Bin4ry v31', do you think it will work?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjWacko:
Hi all,

After reading some posts on Samsung S3 mini forum. Many problems could be fixed by doing a real format.

Many people aren't understanding a real format.

!!! A REAL FORMAT

IS NOT THE SAME

as WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET.!!!

Real format = Format the whole data partition ( Rom, photo's, numbers, downlads,...)

wipe data = delete's your personal settings ( wallpapers , Gapps settings ,...)

It will not delete your external SD card

When doing a real format?

Installing a new rom ( from stock to custom rom)

When your rom isn't working ( bootloop) after a perfect download

When flashing from an other rom ( Carbon to CM and others)

When data partition is corrupted ( bootloop, troubles when starting up the rom)

After doing alot of flashing different Roms ( Not necessary , but it's Recommended)

When the developer brings updates from a rom, a real format isn't necessary. You can flash it over your excisting Rom

A real format is necessary in an update when the developer says it.

So here is the little guide for ClockworkmMod Recovery.

Power in Recovery mode by pressing Volume up, home and power buttom at the same time.

When in Recovery go to:

Mounts and storage --> "format /data and /data/media"

After this, you have a clean Phone and you can start flashing.

Tips:

When i do a real format, i format my system partition also.

!!!Have a Rom ready on your External SD card when doing a Real format !!!

That's all.

I hope this will help new users :highfive:

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coogan:
Hi everyone,

i own the Nook HD+ for a couple of months now. I'm using CM 10.2 with the Nightlys, but did not update for a couple of weeks. Today i wanted to install the latest Nightly but installation was cancelled. I think there was a message that said that i lost my root access and i chose the option to fix it. But now the Nook just boots to the Cyanoboot Logo and reboots again. This happens for 3 or 4 times until it stops in recovery mode. I tried to install the Nightly from SDcard but it won't happen. Error Message is: set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed, E: Error in Nightly.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted. When i choose to reboot there is the message "Root access possibly lost. fix?" and i choose to fix root but it just reboots again. I also wiped data, cache and dalvic cache a couple of times but when i reboot the Nook is stuck in the reboot loop. Please can anyone help me out?

so thats why i have to ask again: which roms are the other people here using, what did they do to get it running ok.

i'm looking for a rom that doesnt use more 10% of battery while i sleep, that shouldnt be to much to ask from a phone

that is basically off all the time.

Since your phone is unlocked boot loader thus you could Undervolt and reduce the cpu freq to 900ghz while you don't need. If you power- just scale to full power or even over clock:fingers-crossed:.

That should gives you at least 5-6hours battery, Furthemore you can use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector app, it is very effective, make sure you watch the video it will tell you how effectivly use it

I have a sony xperia Z C6603 and I absolutely hate something about the phone. Before i take pictures it looks great (amazing even) as i take the photo the picture is perfect, then after a second it processes it so much i look more like an alien from outer space than a human being. Not only this but the files are also ridiculously small compare to all other phones. I've downloaded the FV-5 app and it's great, but my photos from my front camera stll lokks like horse s***. i do not want other setting configurations, because nothing fixes it... Has anybody made a fix for this via rooting or whatever? i've searched all over the internet after a solution , but can't seem to find one. One of you geniuses must have a solution, right?

Hello!

I have installed AOKP 4.3 ROM on my Xperia Z. When I need to take a fast picture, I just use auto ISO/Exposure...

When I wanna get better picture in low light, I just use a little bit tweaking :) In low light, when I'm taking picture of some close object, I just put ISO on 100/200 (max), use flash and that's it! When I'm taking picture a little bit further (3/4 meters), I use 200/400 ISO, and use flash if I can (very big con of our device is bad flash). When I'm doing night portrait, just put ISO on 400 and turn on HDR, photos will look awsome believe me :)

Tonight I could upload some pictures from my Z, just to give you some clue.

P.S. When you're using front camera, turn on HDR you will get a much better photo quality
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrdalesen:
Thank you so much, I will definitely try!

I'm looking to purchase this, most likely as the T-mobile MDA.

My question is... can this phone do Skype well? Some posts say it does it well, others say that Skype doesn't run at all, so its sort of like asking 3 people, getting four answers.

Thanks very much in advance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Eugenia:
Skype requires at least 300 Mhz CPU and the Wizard has 195 Mhz only. I have tried Skype on my QTek 9100 with AKU2 (using the skype low-cpu build) and the phone comes into a crawl when you are on a call with Skype. It's just that Skype is NOT an optimized ARM application (in reality it is nothing but a quick port) and so it takes away all the CPU, and even then it is not enough to encode/decode full speed and so the voice coming through is really grabbled.

I personally find Skype unusable on the Wizard devices. You need a faster CPU for it. Your alternatives are:

1. Email Skype and tell them to optimize the damn thing.

2. Use SJPhone instead which supports all SIP-based VoIP services after a bit of configuration (e.g. Gizmo, Ekiga, Stanaphone, Vonage etc)

3. Wait for the HTC Hermes phone which has a 416 Mhz CPU.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rnsrr:
Thanks for the information.

Its a tough choice here. Do I purchase a HTC Wizard from T-Mobile now, and overclock it to 240mhz, or do I wait for T-Mobile to spit out the Hermes here in the States? Since the US seems the last place that cool phones appear, it may be '07 before the Hermes hits the T-Mobile catalog.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] prestonmcafee:

>240mhz, or do I wait for T-Mobile to spit out the Hermes here in the States?

One thing I don't understand here in USA, is why people only get phones that their carriers are offering and they don't buy unlocked phones. Sure, you will have to do a 10-minute configuration for GPRS and MMS, but other than that, an unlocked phone would work just fine. And you will get it immediately after shipping!
