[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronlos:
So recently my GS3 start dying randomly and I haven't done any change to my device...

at the beginning I didn't know what was going on, but after a short search on the internet I found out its a classic SDS caused by the infamous "Insane Chip" which of course my device has.

I read that the solution to the SDS should come with any ROM higher than 4.1.2 which I already had on my device....

tried flushing different roms (some customized and some stock) with no help...

the device runs perfectly until its suddenly drops dead, and I also found out that the battery keeps darining as the device was turned on and when people try to reach me they get a rining tone while my devine won't actually ring or function.

I've tried on a different battery, SIM card and SD card from another GS3 that works just fine and still got the same problem while the other device which was working great kept working the same way,

so I guess I can rule out the ROM, the battery, the SIM card and the SD card.

what can I do?

thanks in advanced!

Rony.

My first guess is that it's the battery
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
First of all misconceptions about sds people who have problems with their phone suddenly blame it on sds.....Now true sds is exactly what it says sudden death syndrome ie: your phone switches off and never comes back on again no matter what you try...There is a partial sds which can have similar symptoms but has GIJS053 said above I think my first port of call would be a new battery.:)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Well it looks like your trying all the right things to find the problem which is good..maybe you should think whether it is hardware related? I know you said the device powers off but does it freeze at all or does it just power off? the reason I ask is this thread >> http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/ultimate-galaxy-s3-unusual-freezing-t2133401 << but to me it is sounding more hardware related what the problem is exactly I don't know but maybe somebody can help who sees your thread good luck.:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronlos:
The device dons't freeze at all, and actualy works super fine.

but something I seem to forget to mention it is that the device only dies several minutes after I turn off the screen.

it dosn't die after a prolonged use and few seconds after I turn off screen I still can turn it one without problmes.

the problem begins few minutes after the device screen is turned off.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Do a full wipe, format internal sd and flash the latest stock 4.3 with odin. Remove the external sd and sim, test fully before you install or restore anything. If it is still the same then you have a hardware issue, probably an IC failure on the motherboard.

SDS and half SDS relates to faults within the emmc IC, which is very different to the symptoms you describe.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronlos:
what's "IC" exactly? and is it fixable or replacable??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Integrated Circuit, the chips attached to your motherboard. Not fixable, new motherboard required if so.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronlos:
Sounds expensive...

how much the IC + the repairment should cost??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
New motherboard is around 2/3rds the cost of replacing the whole phone.

Hi!

I made a game, it is somewhat similar to flappy birds (although it seems to me that all "birds" look alike :cyclops: ). But my game has strong differences:

Collect the most lost eggs to win!

Two parallel worlds with different gravity strengths keep you on your toes!

Responsive single-click control (no jumping needed).

Two attempts to set a record! No losing because of just one accidental slip.

Background music.

Game difficulty gradually increases.

Cant get it to work to get bootloader mode as i have no rom on phone and can only get to fastboot mode, seems like on the internet i have to get to bootloader mode, why doesnt it work?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
You use fastboot command from bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whelan189:
im not good at this, what do you mean?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plewis1981:
When you boot the phone using vol down + power it boots to the bootloader ( a screen with some info about your device and a menu) this is where you enter fastboot commands or run .bat files.

Your phone should indicate whether or not you phone is connected via USB in the upper part of the screen.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neozen21:
You mean, you can't get into Recovery mode? Because Bootloader mode IS the "fastboot" mode..

You can go into Recovery mode, by turning the phone off, then holding the Power button & the Vol Down at the same time.

Then use the volume buttons to scroll to "Recovery" and press Power button to select.

If your Recovery is working as it should, it will take you there..

If not, you can reflash a stock Recovery or Custom Recovery..

Hi,

I searched around some here, but I'm stuck now... I have a Vodafone ROM Update where I want to extract some information/file from. So far I have managed to split it somehow with typhoonnbfdecode.pl, so I have some files that contain the different parts, as .nb files.

Where would I go from here, to get deeper into the image? Inside those files must be the cabs and stuff I think, how can I access them?

Lars
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cptcoconut:
I'm not an expert on editing ROMs, but I also wanted to get the individual files out of a ROM upgrade, and this method worked for me.

I think you're looking for the utilities which were discussed and posted in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=34171

I used typhoonnbfdecode_v5 (only the v5 worked for me, not the other versions) then tools from the WM5 ROM Tools. The included tools.txt explains what you need to know, but basically prepare_imgfs.exe converts the nk.nb into imgfs_raw_data.bin, then viewimgfs.exe will dump the imgfs_raw_data.bin into the individual files from the ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] TauTau:
maybe I'm doing something wrong here...

typhoonnbfdecode.pl -x nk.nbf

!!! storedcrc=8f39f50f calculatedcrc=9cdb95a0

extracted OS_0

extracted Extension ROM_0

extracted GSM_0

extracted SPL_1

extracted IPL_1

extracted SPL_2

extracted IPL_2

extracted HTC Logo_0

extracted Splash Screen_0

prepare_imgfs.exe 9b000000-Extension.nb

Searching for IMGFS start... Not found!

So typhoonnbfdecode extracts several files from the .nbf file, but prepare_imgfs can't read it...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cptcoconut:
That's the same problem I was having until I found the typhoonnbfdecode_v5.exe. With the other typhoonnbfdecode versions, it looked like it was extracting the *.nb files, but they seemed to be corrupt.

I don't have the perl file that it was built from, but I found the compiled somewhere through a google search (can't remember if it was on the XDA forums or not). You can download it here http://www.exorzero.com/temp/typhoonnbfdecode_v5.exe

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LetJect:
Hello everyone..

This is my first post to nexus 5 thread. And i m totally noob in nexus 5. so please understand me.

I purchased nexus 5 16 GB yesterday. And after using it 1day , my ram consumption is around 890 mb.

So is it usual RAM consumption??

If not tell me some ram optimization app ...

Thanks in advance..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surrealjam:
That doesn't sound crazy to me. It depends what apps you've installed - for example, Viber, WhatsApp, Skype among many other apps will remain in memory even when "closed". I've had my phone for about a week or 2 and it runs at about 900mb used and 900mb free. People here will often tell you to not get too hung up on memory usage - that's what it's there for.

I wouldn't install any memory management apps. If you are really worried I would root the phone and use Greenify to explicitly control any apps that you don't want to run in the background.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LetJect:
Actually i m not worrying about it because 2GB IS more than enough ram..

Thanks..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It's the old addage "unused RAM is wasted RAM" and it is actually true. If your RAM is always FULL though, android should be killing things off as they are used less so it should always run optimally. Every now and again, you get a bad app that needs to be force closed as it has a memory leak. I alwo think a reboot every now and again is a good practice for any system using RAM

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgeek.cub:
I was working on JXD S9100. Then I found out there are a few other ROM that will work on that like Freelander PD60.

The newest FreeLander PD60 ROM works fine with JXD S9100, but there are 2 issues:

1. The camera doesn't work

2.The G sensor works very badly. too bad that it doesn't do Flip screen.

I want to know if there i a fix and how could I do it?

There is the matter of finding the driver and applying it ( if it was a linux device but I don't know If this approach even works with Android)

Can anyone tell me how much space will be available after flashing CM 11 on my 16GB Moto G.

Thanks in anticipation.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SWTR:
Its the same like stock. Maybe 50mb more..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jain.rohit:
Thanks bhai. How is the performance? Significant improvements over the stock ROM?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grahamgo:
The stock ROM, before apps are installed (ie. Dropbox, whatsapp, viber, facebook, etc, etc) uses 290mb (364mb available). I don't know what CM currently uses. As to performance, the stock ROM is significantly better than the two custom ROMs that I have tried. This performance gap can be further widened by installing Faux. I have returned to stock after being disappointed with the current status of the custom ROM's.

I'm not sure if this has been asked...

Can I install the OTA when it is available for me? I am rooted, but I still have the stock recovery.

If not, then how will I get the stock KitKat? I don't want CM11 on my g2 as I'll lose all the LG features wont I??
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manach:
In the KitKat Posts (at least the Tmobile ones) it sounds like the OTA doesn't have any issues flashing over a rooted but stock (with stock recovery, like you mention) ROM.

If it doesn't work, you'll probably either need to unroot and go complete stock or install a custom recovery and a ROM. There is often at least one thread that will have a ROM that is pretty much or completely stock and you could use that one.

I don't have an answer for you about CM11. You may lose knock on, but there are apps for knock off. Other LG or vendor apps probably wouldn't be on it, but there are often apps to do whatever the stock apps do, or the stock apps are available somehow.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GimliTheGreat:

If later in future new Android software update is available for HTC Butterfly mobile, you will receive notification message on phone stating that new software update is available and then you can try to download it for the phone."

Hi guys, I personally read all the comments in this section and I'm sick and tired of people who deviate from the subject recommending roms and kernels in others roms threads.

So how about keeping your recommendation and opinions to this thread only? For example you come here and post:

"Hey, I tried this rom and has this awesome feature and I wish that my favorite rom also had it".

That being said, here are my favorites:

1.Mahdi

2.Carbon

3.Aicp

This is not a list of best rom or anything like that, just personal thoughts and recommendations.

Thank you for your attention and have a good life.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
1, this doesn't belong in the development forum, at all.

2, if other people post something that breaks rules, report them. Don't make a thread where it doesn't belong to whine.

3, stop worrying about other people. Seriously. You can't control what others say, think or do. If you keep trying you're going to drive yourself crazy. I mean literally insane. Accept the things you have no control over

4, a lot of ROM or kernel developers actually welcome off topic chat in their threads. Maybe someone is saying, "hey I love your ROM but I was wondering if you could add X or Y feature from this ROM...here's the commits."

Honestly don't see a point to this thread...

Now to the last part of the series..... Part 5

Thanks for sticking with me guys!

########################

F.A.Q'S and common build errors

########################

Q. What are ideal configurations for compiling?

:- You need to have at least 4gb ram and a dual core processor. Make sure you have at least 200gb free space.

Oh and have a decent internet of 2mbps+ to compile without headaches.

Q. I have less than 4gb of ram....what should I do?

:- Make a swap partition. Search how to make one.

Q. Help I have bugs in the build!

:- calm down. Take a logcat and study it. You can take logcats from phone itself by using aLogCat or CatLog app.

Q. I want to use this rom on my phone but its not there!

:- Ask someone to build it or even better... Build it yourself using your new knowledge. You will even earn some respect!

Q. Help I'm getting build errors!

:- Read the error statement properly goto the file associated with the error and see if there is a logical mistake like a missing semicolon or bracket. Search for similar errors on Google. No avail? Post it here. I'll try to solve and post the error with solution for everyone to see.

But please try first.

Q. My PC froze burning building.

:- you probably don't have enough ram. Use SWAP.

Q. It says permission denied while building.

:- Either use file explorer and right click the file in question and give it r/w access or cd to the directory and:

chmod 777 filename.extension

Q. How do I fix bugs in ROM?

:- take a log cat. Address the errors listed there.

Q. There is an error saying there is no way to define /xyz/kernel needed by /xyz/boot.img

:- Make sure the kernel source is in correct directory. Check in the boardconfig. Are you using prebuilt kernel? Then make sure its taken care of in the BoardConfig.

Q. Server connection failed with Jack

:- Kill server using jack-admin kill-server then enter:

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev nss-updatedb

Q. Jack froze, giving heap error.

:- Need to increase ram dump. For example try this:-

# Use 7GB RAM for Jack Server -1GB from 8GB

export JACK_SERVER_VM_ARGUMENTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -XX:+TieredCompilation -Xmx7000m"

# Killing...

out/host/linux-x86/bin/jack-admin kill-server

# Starting...

out/host/linux-x86/bin/jack-admin start-server

That makes even less sense!

Not being able to make a 32bit ROM that uses Thumb2 and can use half-word requires you to build it on a 64bit system! :banghead:
