Press and hold the power button until it switches off, boot into recovery and factory reset.

If that doesn't work then flash a stock rom with odin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougy style:
Thanks a lot for taking the time to reply to my message. I was unsure whether turning the phone off during the 'downloading...do not turn off target!!' screen would cause any damage. As it happens, the phone seems to be fine. Thanks again.
[HTC One X] kxionk:
hello friends,

I'm a newbie.I'am facing some issues with my htc one x. Which is firstly I was Flashing a rom in my phone, where i could flash boot.img successfully butlater when i was installing d rom from recovery it said installation aborted:( .When i rebooted the phone it freezes at the HTC bootscreen .Then I tried another rom but the same problem continued. Now when i want to go back to stock, i restored my backup but my phone is stuck over HTC bootscreen,I even flashed the stock boot.img. Now, I have no idea how do i proceed ahead:crying:

Please help me to get out of this.

Regards
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
What recovery and what rom ?

And post questions in the Q&A section the next time you have a new question ;)
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Recovery is CWM and i was running d stock rom yet.I tired flashing Probam and sentinel roms.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke flash this recovery

https://www.dropbox.com/s/xvcapmh8tsw5o3b/twrp-endeavoru.img

And try again. Is your hboot high enough ? What's the number, you can check that in the bootloader.
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Hboot is 1.73. And should i Change my recovery with urs link given above?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Well the one above flashes sense 5/aosp roms and kitkat roms. So you don't have to switch recoveries everytime !
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Okay! Then what should i do nest sir? and another problem which i forgot to mention is recovery isnt mounting the sd card
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Then use this recovery to mount

https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img

And you can use this recovery for every rom except kitkat roms !
[HTC One X] kxionk:
is there no way, which can give me my phone in working condition immaterial wheather will it be rooted or not later. Because i want to get out of this as soon as possible as my phone is stuck at boot screen since hours
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah flash philz 5.15 from my link, flash the boot.img from a sense 5 rom, make a full wipe and install the rom !

And if it bootloops you boot it into the recovery and let the battery charge in there, otherwise you will have another problem very soon !
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Okay:fingers-crossed:! So the procedure of flashing the recovery remains the same inspite having a recovery present in the system ?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes rename the file to recovery.img

Then flash :

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Fastboot erase cache
[HTC One X] kxionk:
is it necessary to install stock rom? or it is even fine with custom rom by philz recovery ?:p
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You can use any custom rom you like, or indeed use the stock rom.

If you wish to restore your backup it's recommended to flash the boot.img and the recovery.img from the nandroid backup folder, make a full wipe and restore the backup
[HTC One X] kxionk:
I m watching something really interesting. My phone was on charge and suddenly an battery sign has come up........the same typical sense battery sign!......is it a good sign ?:)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
what do you mean exactly ? on the running software ? inside recovery ?
[HTC One X] kxionk:
No.....I had kept my phones power down and left it over to charge but after a long time i noticed that charging sign which was not present before,but anyways it didnt boot ahead:(

I m flashing the recovery now as the phone is quite charged.
[HTC One X] kxionk:
It shows assert failed : getprop and lot many things and finally gives installation aborted . Did it from philz Recovery.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
What rom again ? Philz 5.15 only supports NON kitkat roms ! Any sense 5 rom should be flashed fine with that recovery. Otherwise take the TWRP i linked before !
[HTC One X] kxionk:
It is inst mounting the sd card. Should i restore the backup by flashing the boot.img of stock rom? And secondly it shows something like this when I perform wipe dalvik cache.

e:unknown volume for path [\sd-ex]
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
That's normal. But make a choice first on what you want. Which rom ?

Philz 5.15 will mount, just leave it for a few minutes after mounting it !
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Alright!..... In case of roms...... I would be happy if you recommend me a Rom,as i'm bored of sense.But if nothing works I'm ready to go on sense back again.:p
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
I don't know aosp, i always run sense. So that's has to be your choice ;)
[HTC One X] kxionk:
okay:D........I have downloaded stock but i can't find boot.img....
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
A nandroid backup ?

---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------

The boot.img is always inside the rom.zip or in the nandroid backup folder
[HTC One X] kxionk:
I need to mount usb storage then....right?
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Mount is sucessful.....:o but how do i find d backup?
[HTC One X] kxionk:
Thankyou so much sir, I made it..............complete credit goes to you sir. The last step you couldnt reply, but i was looking for it in other threads and saw your solution itself and it worked for me.Thank you so much!!!!!!:fingers-crossed::D:angel:
[HTC One X] kxionk:
All solved
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Very good mate, yeah couldnt reply as i was busy with my 3 kids ;)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronlos:
Hey there,

recently my GS3 started dying after i turned off the screen and the only way to turn it on was to pull the battery and re-insert it.

anyway, now my device won't turn at all...

I managed to enter download mode by pulling out the battery, pressing Volume down + Home + Power and while pressing inserting the battery (read it somewhere that it can replace the jig and it actually worked!)

and I flushed a stock rom (4.3) which I trust.

after the Odin done flushin it reached the part where it needs to reboot and againg, my device won't turn on.

what can I do??

tanks in advanced!

Rony.

**UPDATE**

after few tries I managed to turn the device on. maybe the trick with the battery didn't actually work...

its just sometimes turns on and most of the times just stays dead....

but it goes directly into recovery mode and there's the Android thingy lying down dead.

can't seem to boot up the system?

should I just try again to go indo download mode and flush again??

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeChNoC4AzY:
Hello, I was going to try and restore my Nexus 4 back to It's original state. I went into the bootloader and selected the recovery mode option, the Google screen comes up then right after, I see a sleeping android with a red triangle box on top and it says no command. Then the phone shuts down. Any solutions on how I can fix this? I'm really new to the nexus 4. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
That's stock recovery.

Once at that screen do some button mashing ( I think It's power and volume down to bring up stock recovery options but I can't remember for sure) and your options show up.

If you wanted a custom recovery you would need to flash that with fastboot. Or from within android if you're on a rooted device.

Also depending on exactly what you want to do flashing the factory images may be what you want. That will by default wipe EVERTHING of the phone and start completely fresh with stock images. There is guides for that in general...

Hello world.

I'd like to install the DE_T-Mobile_1.13.01.zip BS ROM, but it has an unpacked size of 495 MB (I assume it was created using a 512 MB SD) and my SD has only 256 MB of capacity.

Is it possible to make it working with a 256 MB SD somehow?

It's safe to flash the zip file, as long as it's not corrupted, when you open the zip.

Make a backup of your current rom, just in case, but you shouldn't have any problems flashing it.

I've had to rename .bin files to .zip before as well, and my phone still survived. ? :D

Is there a way to sim unlock my htc one v?

I've unlocked the bootloader, rooted the device, put it on s-off, installed CyanogenMod Android 4.1.2, kernel version 3.0.16-HELLBOY; i flashed the kernel and rom; i tried to upgrade the ruu but it returned me the error 131 which reffered to some incompatibility ruu, even tho it was the most appropiate one.

another thing i tried was to hack into the mmcblk0p6 and take the un_lock_code but the unlock.sh returned me this error:

u0_a39@android:/ # IMEI:

u0_a39@android:/ # UN_Lock_code:

Can you help me guys?

That depends on what fastboot commands your hboot supports. If you have an eng hboot you can remove simlock with fastboot. But I cannot remember the command off hand. Connect up to the pc in fastboot mode and issue the.command fastboot oem h and it will output all the options available. Post them here for us all to learn from please :)

Then issue these fastboot commands one after another and copy the results.

Fastboot oem readsimlocktype

All good? Now first we want to change your cid to super. So issue this command

Fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Fastboot reboot bootloader

Fastboot oem readcid

Your cid should now show up as 11111111, that's 8 1's :)

All good? Lastly we issue these commands.

Fastboot oem clearsimlocktype

Fastboot reboot

Now just check your simcard and all should be well :) you can now flash any ruu for any carrier without issue, but always check its compatible with your model type first!

GSM problem/hardware problem

thanks heavy_metal_man for replies!

the config.dat file worked, partially i think, returning only one error: Open Cid file failed.

as i could see my phone does not react to find any mobile network available, even tho my phone is "reading" the simcard now. i can see contacts, messages, etc.

ps: i don't have the back cover. would that be the problem?

The back cover for these kinds of phones usually have "antenna boosting" pads. My htc sensation gets no signal without the back cover on.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsonlyme999:
I just encrypted my GS4 which by the way took 15 minutes!!!!!!! Not alot of apps anyways. So this was kind of expected.

Everything went smoothly. But I noticed something strange when the phone rebooted for the first time after encryption was completed.

The inital Bootup encryption logon console had a different language (perhaps maybe Italian) I dont know.

I then entered my Password, so no issues there and the phone was back to normal English language mode.

But why is the bootup encryption screen has a different language interface to it?

Just dont know why.I bought this phone in Europe.

Another thing which kind of bugs me, is that the keyboard makes the "dripping" sound effect when on the encryption password prompt screen.

Now after when I enter my password, all seems to be back to normal. Its just these events occur ONLY at the bootup encryption password prompt console.

Please image inserted

Any thoughts as to why?

Also, is there any way to change this device encryption password if I decide to? If so, how is this possible? Please explain the steps.

Maybe changing the screenlock password??? Would it be under there?

Thanks!

Hi, I recently bought a Moto G 8gb, Unlocked and rooted it, but when i try to install new KK 4.4.2 it shows "error" on reboot, then "software update failed" when booted.

Tried Factory reset, still the same thing.

This might not be the place to post this, but I need help, desperately.

I decided to fancy puy phone and put a 4.3 rom on it, but my TWRP (2.6.3.0) failed on flashing it. I was sure that it would work, so I did it without making a backup. On the other hand, I have a backup folder on my pc, but I can't move it to my phone because I accidentally wiped the system while flashing. Now adb won't recognize my device. I'm stuck you guys. It would mean a lot if someone helped me out

I already tried using the LG Flash Tool to bring it back to factory settings but it says I have the wrong model number when I try doing so. I don't know where to turn. This sucks.

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] amnrox:
Hi people :)

So I bought the tegra note 7 recently, before discovering that a 4G LTE version was on the way. So I wanted to know if there was any way to make voice calls with this tablet using an external USB dongle and my sim. My USB OTG cable is in transit as of now so I'm not sure even if the tablet supports external dongles.

Any and all help is appreciated.

P.S. this is my first thread post here. (and I'm not very smart with such stuff)

Plz help.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Ouzo:
The Note certainly has a microphone because there is a built in voice recorder. You can't see the voice recorder in the app tray, but it's on the tablet (I stumbled upon it after I installed Nova Launcher then was looking at what shortcuts/actions I could assign to the dock).

As for using a USB dongle with OTG, I haven't tried it because I have a MiFi. Perhaps someone else can chip in...
