No a bad idea [MENTION=4334383]demkantor[/MENTION] maybe just run these before you flash them individually...

fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache

Just what I would do if it were mine.....
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmfaznboi:
I think its the cable, since I lost my orginal cable and using my logitech cable that came with my mouse. but ill try flashing them individually and see how i goes. I already ordered an oem cable and should come next week.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doctor Dedroid:
Hi,

I realize this is an OLD thread... but after all this time, I find myself (on a stock nexus 10!) in the same place. I can boot into the bootloader but system and recovery simply hang on the google screen . I'm hoping this procedure might help me. What was the ultimate outcome of this?

Main question:

To flash recovery and/or system do I need to unlock the bootloader?

Using Wugfresh's nexus root toolkit allows me to reboot into the bootloader... It also says I can flash stock recovery separate from the image. I just don't understand how borked my good 'ole nexus ten is right now.... Any info/encouragement is appreciated...

Nevermind, it just seemed to need another reboot (the first didn't quite do it)

Hi, I just flashed CM 11 and all but 1 thing seems to be working properly.

When I try to connect to the device through adb (via cable or a wireless adb application) adb cannot find any devices.

The results of lsusb are here

It looks like the computer isn't recognizing the kindle at all.

Is there any way that adb isn't enabled in CM 11 (I can't find the option anywhere)? Or do I need to associate the device with adb somehow?

Thanks for any help
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
ok well um incase you didnt already do this, to turn on adb its in settings>developer options, but to get the developer options to show up you need to tap on the build number around 10 times in the about tablet area of settings. Once you do this you can enable adb, though i will say that is odd i figured that a lab126 device would atleast showup with lsusb even if adb is disabled for the mtp device. Try plugging the device in and running a dmesg and see if its even recognizing it as plugged in there.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtagAwesome:
I think it just needed a power cycle. After a reboot adb seems to be working. And I do now have a lab126 in the lsusb

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tunichi01:
So here's what happened:

1. I unlocked the bootloader.

2. Flashed Nemesis Kernel using Command Prompt on PC.

3. Flashed Honami V2 ROM (without making a backup -__-) tru CWM. Wiped cache, dalvik cache, wipe data/factory ___, even tried reflashing the ROM but no luck.

4. And now I'm stuck with the boot logo. (where it shows "May the source be with you")

Can any body help me or have anyone had this issue? I also tried flashing the stock rom using Flashtool but it gives me the error that my drivers aren't properly installed. (and I've tried reinstalling the drivers.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just want to bring my Xperia U back to life. :(

EDIT: I used my friend's PC to flash the stock tft file. Thanks for the suggestions bro!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chans.best:
its soft bricked.dont worry.i had same problem i tried my friends pc installed flashtool n drivers on it n flashed stock ics using it and it ws ok.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
I have the same problem with that ROM (Experimental and Nemesis kernels) -- they stop working after the first boot...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] iam_dragonmaster:
Get a zip of stock based rom, mount usb from cwm and transfer it to internal storage. Flash it. You should be fine.

If that doesn't work, install flashtool drivers, get into flashmode and then flash a stock rom. Root it and install cmw via flashotool.

You will be ok... I have at least one soft brick every 3 months... But i'm just plain stupid sometimes... :)

[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
So I took the plunge and purchased the aluminum frame found here:

I just got it in the mail and fitted it to my Verizon G2. Here's what I found:

1) As it's a bumper frame it doesn't cover the whole phone (duh) but the frame interior is fitted with a thin foam material to absorb shock and help with the fit. padding is found on the sides and corners of the frame's interior.

2) It comes with a screen protector. (dry apply 4h hardness aka throw away protector)

3) the lip on the front of the phone gives plenty of allowance for screen protectors but is so thin I'm afraid it may eliminate any glass screen protectors except for maybe the iLoome flex which is .12mm thick.

4) As the back is exposed I'm also investing in a body film like this.

5) Shipment was much faster than projected which is nice since it arrived on my doorstep from mainland China in only 2 weeks.

6) The fit on the front is great, but there are gaps between the back of the frame and battery plate. I was surprised by this since the VS980 is supposed to be the thickest G2.

7) as the back is open the aluminum does not interfere with my signal at all- not wifi, not 4g, nothing.

8) There is a cut out to access the Sim tray, but got to really want it out. Otherwise, you'll need to take the bumper off.

9) My phone can now stand on it's own! May come in handy every once and awhile.

Here's some pictures I'll answer any other questions you guys may have.

[G2 Accessories] jedi-knight-:
Do you screw it in?
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
yeah, there are 2 tiny screws at the bottom where you secure everything together. I should also mention how it actually ships with spare screws and a driver.
[G2 Accessories] Ryoma1337:

Nice write up man.

How's your signal?
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:

[G2 Accessories] ikenvape:
Rock on thanks bud!
[G2 Accessories] rip9150:
thanks for taking the plunge buddy! ive had my eye on this one for a while but since i too have the vs980 i was weary of getting it as most cases stated they were compatible with the verizon model but in reality arent. i like bumpers and have a tpu that isnt made for the vs but it works. i ordered one of these and am excited to get it now. thanks!
[G2 Accessories] Xeroday:
Has anyone tried a case like this?

[G2 Accessories] Ryoma1337:
Although that looks nice, I believe you'll have problems with signal and GPS, etc. Maybe wireless charging too if you have the VZW one.
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
Good to see people are giving this bumper a try. I've bought 4 cases for the vs980. This one finally adds a premium feel to the phone. And now I have some wet apply clear body film on it I think it's protected enough.

Whoever requested pics of it standing up I haven't forgotten about you. They're coming!
[G2 Accessories] SPBoss:
I would buy this in an instant if it wasn't for the bottom right corner. That eyesore should have been smoothed off like the other 3 corners
[G2 Accessories] Ryoma1337:
I think it was meant to be there because that's what holds the phone up if you're setting it on a flat surface, so you can watch videos or w/e. at least, that's what makes the most sense.
[G2 Accessories] Xeroday:
I think it's where the actual screws for the bumpers go
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
Yup! If you look real close at my pic of the bottom of your phone you can see the screw holes.
[G2 Accessories] SPBoss:
So that holds the entire thing together i guess. I just wish there was a version that was smoothed off somehow. Maybe i should just get a hard shell case. Only reason this appealed because it is low profile. Hopefully i can find ultra thin case somewhere
[G2 Accessories] naxsandbew:
wow....nice case...i think its look like iphone hohohoho

is it have a few space when the screen facing down on the flat surface ?
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
VERY little spacing to place it face down. I honestly wouldn't without a protector.
[G2 Accessories] Ryoma1337:
It's a nice bumper, makes the phone look cool. Though, I have the iloome and even that sticks out past the lip on the bumper. I never place my phone face down though so it's not a big deal for me. I also have the brushed steel slickwrap on it, and it makes the phone look pretty nice.
[G2 Accessories] Par0l:
That really looks cool! I am facing a huge dilemma whether to order a silver or a gray bumper. :confused:

D802 black with brushed steel slickwraps also. :laugh:

The silver bumper would fuse with the silver slickwraps but I am really into to the gray color,

would it make the phone too colorful (black phone, silver wraps, gray bumper)?
[G2 Accessories] JCottle:
I like the look of that slick wrap. Right now I just have a clear protector on the back. I might have to upgrade.Thank you for taking a picture of the back you can see the gaping I mentioned in my OP. I could never get around to posting new pics. A 6 month old will have that effect on a person. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jermo:
Somewhat of a noob here so bare with me...

I have an AT&T S4 here in the US and just downloaded the 4.4 kitkat update but postponed it from installing. I imagine firmware comes with this where i wont be able to install a custom recovery and ROM, is that correct? I have my phone rooted which is running MK2 but have yet to install a recovery and ROM on it. I read on AT&T's website that i can only postpone the update 3 times for 4 hours at a time so i guess i have to figure this out soon. What do you guys think? Install the update OR immediately install a recovery and a new ROM so i am not forced to install this update? Thanks for the help fellas, this site has helped me so much already!

You CAN NOT install CWM or TWRP on your mk2 S4. Only Safestrap 3.71 is a recovery that works. This is common knowledge that is posted throughout the forums on XDA. Search is your friend.

If you are on stock 4.3 & don't want the OTA update & just want to stop it from downloading & installing automatically, then do this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
If you are on MK2, you did not install CWM recovery. You think you did, but you actually booted back into the stock recovery. Which is the best thing that could have happened to you because a lot of people brick their phones and lose recovery completely trying to install a custom recovery (beside Safestrap) on any firmware past MDL. Fortunately, there is a method for most people to recover even if they do Derp their phone. I suggest you take time to read about what is and is not possible with your phone and the different firmwares because the next time you might not be so lucky. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jermo:
actually i think you are right, because i was going to keep following those instructions to do a backup in CWM but there is no backup and restore option. so i guess that does mean i still have the stock recovery...whew!

[General Questions and Answers] gianflavio:
i was using cm11 but out of nowhere MMS and calling stopped working (either one worked or the other) I tried flashing different versions but nothing. Also the camera on snapchat looked stretched out and there were some other bugs.

Now im using Gummy rom, I still can't send MMS (and I can't change the APN settings, it just wont let me) and the ROM itself is very laggy, also it randomly turns off, no clue why. Battery dies quick and sometimes overheats.

I really like kitkat and I wanna continue to use kitkat, otherwise I would've gone back to carbon or LS or something. Are there any other 4.4 ROMs for metro gs3? or any fix for this MMS/lag issue in gummy or the MMS/camera issue on CM11?

FIRMWARE

How to install OTA

If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked

Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.

Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.

Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.

How to install firmware

Extract firmware file from Ota and put it to the root of the ext sd card and rename it to P068IMG.zip then reboot to boot loader when ur there use power key to select bootloader and the file will load just follow instructions and u will be updated.

Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated

S-ON Details on how to flash a rom

Download the rom and copy to your phone

Download fastboot tools if you don't have them

Extract the adb folder in the fastboot zip to somewhere (E.g. C:\adb)

Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder

Connect your phone to your pc

Hold shift and right-click somewhere in the adb folder, select "Open command window here"

Restart your phone to bootloader, then select fastboot.

Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)

It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install

Type "fastboot erase cache"

Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

Type "fastboot erase cache" again

Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, whichever you have installed

Backup your system, data, and cache

Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system

Install the rom.

Hi, i have three questions, i am 901s, not supercid, s-off, unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and rooted...if i am correct the steps are:

1. I´have already downloaded the update in the phone that prompted when i search for updates in the system.

2. I have to flash first the recovery from 901s...that says 4.4.2 or do i need other recovery for 4.3?

3. I should go to the recovery and it just updated?

4. flash twrp recovery and root again.

version 2:

1. Flash stock recovery.

2. Put the update in the external sd card and rename update

3. Update trough recoveryvand select the file in the sd?

4. flash twrp recovery and root again.

with the firmware version, i don´t understand the difference between instal only the firmware instead of the ota. what are the differences? and last. how can i do this with twrp and flash a zip?

Thanks in advance :good:
