I would like to create a shortcut to issue a soft reset command to my Blue Angel without having to stick the stylus on it's bottom hole. In other words, I want to be able to click on a small icon on the screen to tell it to soft reset.

I would also like to be able to do a shutdown (i.e. press the ( | ) power button) in the same way.

How can I do it? Is it possible without having to use a 3rd party app?

BTW, I have searched the forums but didn't find it...

Thanks in advance,

Brazilian Joe
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] vijay555:
Brazillian, you could do it without a 3rd party app if you write it yourself. Otherwise, there are apps that do this - I think PHM tools has something that does it.

My program VJEschaton will soft reset or hard reset from a shortcut or hardware key. However, read my other posts about (not) assigning anything to the power button.

I don't want to assign sonething to the herdware power button, I just want a shortcut which performs the same action...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Stabilo:
Not eaxactly a shortcut but if you downlaod Tweaks2k2 demo (free) it has a soft reset option.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] vijay555:
Brazillian: VJEschaton should still soft reset (and possibly optionally hard reset) for you then.

CWM 6.0.4.8 Advanced Edition / PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.40.1​

PhilZ Recovery is a CWM Advanced Edition that adds all the features you could ever miss in CWM.

It is a well proven recovery for many phones.

Please give your feedback, what works, and any bug you could encounter.

Read the features at the Main thread, and check if you are missing something.

To take a screen shot, just slide left!

And don't forget to read about powerful aroma file manager integration and double-tap shortcut (in FAQs).

How to install recovery?

From download link below, you'll get a 'recovery.img' file. Put that recovery.img file at root directory of your

sdcard. (means not in any folder)

Now, go to terminal emulator.

Give command:

su

You'll be asked to grant superuser permissions, grant it.

Now, give the following command:

flash_image recoveryonly /sdcard/recovery.img

Wait until it executes the command (4-5 seconds), it is installing the recovery.

Now, normally reboot to recovery and enjoy new recovery!

Download links

Latest version can be found here:

Special thanks to:

Very good recovery. :good:

Everyone should check it out.

I haven't found any bugs as of now.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
UPDATE:

Changelog:

-Updated PhilZ sources to 6.23.8 (26.03.2014).

-Updated androidarmv6 sources. So, you'll be able to flash cm-ota without any Signature Verification error.

Below is the recovery.img file, flash using Terminal Emulator method:

Need feedback. If everything is fine, I'll add it to first post.

MAJOR UPDATE:

PhilZ Recovery updated to 6.27.9.

PhilZ Recovery FULL VERSION now enabled (Touch, GUI options and everything!).

CWM updated to 6.0.4.8.

Ready for official support!

I seriously want feedback on this version. If it is working, we can now get our phone in "officially supported devices" list.

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] RobsX2:
Doesn't flash for me from terminal... on i5500. Just says "flash_image not found"?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
Yes. Sorry to say that this method (of terminal emulator) doesn't work on Stock ROMs.

What you can do is:

-Download my recovery.img

-Search google: Make an odin flashable .tar for recovery.img

-There are many tools out there. Get one and make an odin flashable tar.

-Now flash that tar using odin and enjoy the recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] RobsX2:
Thank you for the fast reply.

I shall try that now and let you know how i get on.

Many thanks!

---------- Post added at 12:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 PM ----------

Ok ive made a flashable .tar.

Tried flashing wih odin, everything went ok, but recovery does not boot.... I dont know if it worked.

I used "one package" in odin plus the ops file

EDIT: Recovery has flashed and does work. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
Then there is another simple solution.

-Install any CWM recovery (through ODIN).

-Now download any zip file of cwm recovery (use madteam.co if you don't find at xda).

-Open the zip and replace the recovery.img inside with this (PhilZ Recovery) one.

-Now, flash this modified zip file with the current cwm recovery (which you installed using odin).

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
UPDATE:

Updated PhilZ Touch sources to 6.40.1.

Fixed the misbehaviour of hardware keys in the new full version recovery.

In this version, I especially need feedback on:

-Hardkeys. Test all of them if they are correctly working or not.

-Change the 'Menu Background' to 'PhilZ Default' and 'Koush Default' (from PhilZ Settings > GUI options > Menu Background) and tell me if which of them is working. (ofcourse, reboot recovery after changing the background)

wrong post :(
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] CTH-EVO:
Greetings, and thanks!

I have one question before I use this. Just to make sure;

do I use the instructions in the OP still? I'll be using the PhilZ Touch recovery on the Samsung S5 G900P.

Also, I downloaded from the link to the recovery.img file in your most recent post (just above).

That is the correct one, right? I only ask, because it's smaller than the one in the OP.

Thank you, again.

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
If you really care for your device, please read things carefully. This recovery is for Samsung Galaxy 5 (GT-I5500) and not Samsung Galaxy S5 (G900P).
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] CTH-EVO:
I do care, and thanks for mentioning it! :)

I followed a link, but now re-reading it, I see it's Galaxy 5 -- not S5.

Bummer. I was really hoping to be able to back this thing up. So I could start customizing it. :(

Thanks, again. You really saved my bacon. :)

--Chris
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Bhargav97:
There must be a lot of customization options available to you. See this Galaxy S5 xda forum:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5

Again, whatever thing you try (where model no. G900P isn't specially mentioned), ask in the respective thread if it is ok for G900P or not. :)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] CTH-EVO:
Customization isn't the issue. So much as being able to create a backup before hand. Which I was looking to CWM.

Thanks. I had already searched there. The closest thing I could find was:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2697523

But there seems to be many issues with it, and while it claims support for the G900P. There is no

evidence that it has ever been tried on it.

I don't suppose you are ever planning to add support for the G900P to your CWM 6.0.4.8 Advanced Edition,

any time soon(ish)? :)

Thanks Bhargav97. I really appreciate your time.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] johndoehizzle:
How's it going guys,been stressing and working on my phone all day today.

i was running Bad boys rom,while runnning twrp

i flashed viper one,and phone kept booting up to the bootloader only and noticed that it was or tuned back into S-On.

i went back into recovery to try and flash back to bad boys rom,and the phone would boot up but had tons of FC's ,so i went back to recovery and erased everything off my phone and tried to install the rom once again,but noticed the roms were wiped off as well.

i can flash a recovery, im currentyl on twrp 2.6.3.0 ( openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7wls.img)

all the drivers on the phone work,i know this because when i push a recovery it installs via adb,

but when i open up CMD and put in "adb devices" it throws "list of devices" but my phone serial code doesnt appear.

i tried adb pushing a rom via sideload on recovery but nothing happens ,now my phone wont boot up to anything,it stays in the white HTC logo screen unless i force it to go to bootloader.

its as if the whole system was wiped and it wont let me push anything.

info of the phone:

sprint htc one

current bootloader state : Tampered / Unlocked

S-ON

----

ps: i already tried putting it in fastboot mode and running a RUU but the RUU wont let me downgrade the system image,says the phone is currently in 4.0.xxx(kit kat) and i was trying to RUU to 3.xx, i thought this would work,but no go.

is my phone really bricked? i mean,i can access recovery but not push any files to flash via adb or sideload , any help guys? please.

EDIT:

like i said the phone is unlocked with S-ON

is there any way i can atleast reset the tampered notice and lock it back again ? ive searched all day and it seems the only way is through rumrunner or/and Revone , but those 2 options require the phone to be S-OFF,which im having issues setting it to since i cant get the phone to boot to anyhting.

::::::::::::::::::::SOLVED::::::::::::::::::::::

so the other twrp recoveries werent letting me sideload,i flashed recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-m7wls.img , which then it let me flash via sideload,installed bad boys rom, it booted up but it would stay in the yellow sprint page,when i would push the power button it would let me see the taskbar and would give me FC's on the dialer,so i found the baseband/radio and flashed via sideload,and BOOM! got my phone working again lol.so stoked. thanks guys!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
Look HERE

As for you being s-on again the only way that would happen is if you told it to by typing a command to change it.

Also adb devices work while booted to OS or recovery

fastboot devices works in fastboot

thanks alot
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] johndoehizzle:
any more help please?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] johndoehizzle:
quick update: when i was trying to push the file/ sideload , i was hitting shift + right click to open up cmd,which when i put "adb devices" it wouldnt show me the phone being listed,so i when into Start,and looked up CMD and opened it up as an Admin , put the phone into sideload in recovery and it seems like its actually pushing the ROM ,hopefully this works, its at 72% right now. < fingers crossed>
[LG Optimus 4X HD] YvonnePewPew:
Hi, My LG P880 has a broken power button. I got around the use of it via the Gravity Unlock app but recently my phone died due to low battery.

I tried to plug in, take battery out and put it back in.

I tried plugin it in without the battery.

I tried plugin it in with battery and then take the cable out once it display.

All three ends up with the battery charging indicator after the LG logo and then turn off.

I need some help as I am hoping to hold onto this phone till my contract status is available for a change in handset.

Any help is appreciated.

PS: My phone is unrooted and without any modifications etc.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rudjgaard:
If your battery isn't holding charge buy a new one no?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] balloon27:
I think the problem here is not the battery;) She needs a way to turn on her phone without having to use the power button.

OP, what about warranty?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Omario-242:
Without modifications there's no way I think. Adb needs drivers and Dev settings set properly to turn on the device from a connected PC.

I would also suggest to go for warranty if you're able to.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] YvonnePewPew:
Thanks

Thanks for the reply, though it does not solve my problem, it is still very much appreciated.

It's is not the battery, since it is detected when plugging in the charger. It is even at full charge.

Warranty wise, It is kinda expired since I am on a 2 year contract plan with my telecom which ends this August and I am sure that the warranty is only for the first year.

The phone still can't be turned on after more futile attempts and I had to resort to using a backup phone that has no data capabilities.. sigh.

Will consider sending it to a repair shop once I get enough funds though and again, thanks for the help!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] balloon27:
What exactly is wrong with your power button? Perhaps you could try removing it and use something thin to push the actual button underneath it?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] tuncay_93:
In my opinion don't touch your phones hardware parts don't even think about disasembly.... just take it to some repair shop if its out of warranty fixing the button probably will cost you 15-25E How much could replacing some tiniy button cost :fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] hirntot.:
that thread is quite old though, but I found an easy solution. Maybe it helps someone out there...

you need some skills with electronics or at least with small parts and screws and I am not responsible if you damage your phone.

But anyway, your Phone doesn't work anymore and there is no warranty anymore, so why don't you just try it.

There are youtube videos how to disassemble it. but just when you got rid of the back cover and the electonics is uncovered, you need to pull out the flex cable that leads to the power button. Pull it out gently (it's not glued) and check it out. in my case there wasn't any visible damage and it still clicked as if it was working (but it wasn't).

Well, that click-thing in the end of that cable can be devided into two parts such as the contacts (on the cable) and a bowed piece of metal that is taped on them and supposed to make a contact beween these two contacts when you press it. I separated these two parts and cleaned it with an alcohol pad, afterwards I just put it back together without any aditional glue. Make sure it clicks again as before, also when you put it back in place and close your phone again.

Make sure, you do have a working battery. if your phone died half a year ago because it ran out of battery, and you didn't charge it again, the battery might be completely empty and therefore dead.

hope that someone can make use of my simple howto. Greets

2. File: bbconnect_pocketpc_tmo_de_2.1.1.20.exe

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adityaomverma:
Hi,

Last week my friend was robbed..and that bugger had the guts to snatch his Note 2 from his hand and run away in a moving bus... he had ADM & Kaspersky Security installed. this is how it happened, the incident took place at 9:27 AM he called me immediately and while i logged in on the site and fire the lock and remote wipe commands it was 9:46 AM.. very obviously the bugger had removed the sim immediately so non of the commands were executed and it is highly possible that he will sell it to some local shop who will first flash the mobile before using it..apart from filing a complaint at police station and putting the IMEI number under surveillance which I know is not happening any time soon.

My question is : Is their a way where we can restrict Flashing the mobile with a password..and to unlock the flashing security the mobile needs to be switched on and connected to a network.. this will at least give us some time for remote wipe and location tracking of that thief/ or otherwise at least he will not be able to use the hardware at all.

Thanks in advance
