[HTC One V] kvestas:
What happens when you keep pressed the power button for at least 10-15 seconds? This action should turn the phone off.
[HTC One V] AlvinTheChoster:
I was entertaining the possibility the power button is partly broken, and I think that's the case. Sometimes pressing the power button doesn't trigger what is selected in the menu and takes a couple tries. However, because of your comment I tried a few more times to turn it off and I think it actually turned off once. I held it down and it faded to black, but there was no "Power Off" button I had to touch before it went black. Is that just because I was in the ClockworkModRecovery menu? Did it actually shut off that one time?

EDIT: I've been able to do the same thing a few times now, even once in the frozen "HTC quietly brilliant" screen! However, I can't seem to hard reset, and I'm thinking maybe my volume down key is similarly faulty.
[HTC One V] kvestas:
Indeed the power button is quite sensitive on HOV so you might need to keep trying several times when using it.

Holding power button is a hard shut down and it shouldn't ask you to confirm this action. It's ok. Unless you have the system already started it may ask you for reboot options. Even in this case the phone will shut down if you'll still keep the power button down for a long time.

At first you may try the simplest thing I guess. Start recovery (you might remember it should start automatically when you turn off the phone and plug in a charger) and choose the menu option "wipe cache partition". Restart the phone after clearing the cache. There is a small chance but this might help.

If not you have to continue your research with adb commands.

Another option is to asquire sd card, I think it would be easier for you when you are using mac.
[HTC One V] Jexbox:
Well you can flash an RUU to get the stock rom back, it will get rid of the recovery and you will be able to start from stock.
[HTC One V] AlvinTheChoster:
Yeah, unfortunately the cache partition isn't working. If I buy a SD Card, and I put it in my phone and start, what do you anticipate will happen? Because it's fresh, will it load up as if I am turning on the phone for the first time, or will that depend on whether or not my problem is related to the ClockworkRecovery or the phone itself? Sorry for all the questions, but I really appreciate the help.

Thanks for the feedback, but unfortunately, I mentioned my computer doesn't recognize it because based on the research I did, flashing an RUU requires the computer to recognize the device and that didn't work, so that seems to not be an option.
[HTC One V] kvestas:
You will be able to place ROM file on sd card (using a computer), insert the card into your phone and install new ROM through recovery. Be aware you might need an adapter to use micro sd card on your pc (usually they have a general size sd socket).

You might need to try installing several ROMs because we don't know which kernel has been flashed by Bell guys earlier.
[HTC One V] mcgi5sr2:
OK so get yourself a micro SD card pal and stick a ROM on it. If possible find out form your sister/friend what the previous ROM was so we can all take a guess at what kernel you have on the phone and so select a ROM that will work with it straight away.

As a point of interest did the phone have an SDcard in it at the shop when it booted?

Also could you try doing the three full wipes on the phone from ClockWorkMod. These are

-Factory reset

-Clear Cache

-Advanced Options --> Wipe Dalvik

Then reboot?

Installed the unofficial CM11 for my z1c 24 hours ago. It worked well for the first 12 hours. But the phone periodically freezes after periods of idle.

If I haven't used it for anywhere between 20-60 minutes, it doesn't unlock, stays dark and I have to force a reboot. This has happened 4 times in the past 3 hours.

I'd post this directly into the CM11 thread, but new users can't post in that thread.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyflex:
Hey Guys,

I just rooted my S2 and want to install: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/development/rom-cyanogenmod-11-official-nightly-t2604068 however it says that I "Must be at least once on stock ICS or JB before attempting!".

I don't know how I am supposd to upgrade my 2.3.5 so that this is possible...

Any advice?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul_Kolanjian:
Since you're rooted, install Mobile Odin Pro from Play Store, then download the 4.1.2 firmware for your I9100G by googling the term "offcial 4.1.2 stock firmware for I9100G" and downloading the zip file associated and extracting the .tar file that comes inside. Then, extract the .tar file to your SD card and go to Mobile Odin Pro app and choose to flash the extracted .tar file. It takes some time but it should update your phone to android 4.1.2 and then you can install a custom kernel for your 4.1.2 firmware which supports CWM recovery. I recommend PhilZ kernel which comes with CWM. Note that you need CWM 6.0.4.5 and above to flash a KitKat based ROM (such as Cyanogenmod 11 in your case). There you go, your phone will run the ROM you asked for and much of what I mentioned can simply be googled here and there for more details. Good luck

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul_Kolanjian:
If you need a 4.2.2 Touchwiz ROM, try Revolution Rom UX build 2 by tutangigi, and use stable dorimanx kernel v9.43. SuperNexus 2.0 is good too if you like stable Vanilla AOSP Android. As for Android 4.3, I used SlimBean 4.3 build 2.2. Good luck

Never heard of 4.2.2 tw rom for s2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyflex:
A lot of various continued development and support for older roms in the s2 area which is odd to see.

I'm looking to pretty much maximise battery life, the dorimanx kernel looks to be the right kernel for me but unsure elsewhere.

What's better on battery 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4? Does ART in 4.4 help battery wise?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] floatingtrees:
Hello all, I'm new to this forum and I could really use some help with my phone. I have a rooted AT&T Samsung galaxy S3 running on 4.1.1 stock with cwm. I would like to update to the latest stock OS which is 4.3 but I'm not sure how to do it right. I would prefer to keep all my data but I don't mind losing root. how should I go about updating my device safely?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] flynhawn2002:
If you are rooted then you can flash any 4.3 ROM in the android development and they all have KNOX free bases. You will most likely need to update your baseband to MJB. Enjoy your KNOX free 4.3!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
You should first check to see if you can get an OTA update. Some users have reported being able to update OTA to 4.3 even with root. Go to Settings => About Device and check for updates. If you can't get an OTA update, you may try manually updating via cwm via the method posted in the following thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2658486

Before updating to 4.3, however, I would suggest you ensure you are done with taking advantage of all the opportunities you have at 4.1.1 including free unlock as you would not be able to downgrade the 4.3 bootloader once you've upgraded. If you don't have Samsung Kies installed on your PC, you may install it to back up and restore your data. In other words, you cannot go back to an older version (easily) once you have upgraded.

Introduction:

Team Win Recovery Project or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It's a fully touch driven user interface , no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Key Features:

Touchscreen driven with real buttons and drag-to-scroll

XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout true theming!

Settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots

Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore

Ability to choose to compress backups now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)

Onscreen keyboard

Decryption of /data

Easy selection of internal/external storage

Installation:

since our device developers are constantly trying to fix bugs, they are always changing something in init.*.rc files for testing. For this reason I can't post a regular boot.img file because it won't work. For now, I've created a script that will take all init.*.rc files from current rom's boot.img and then compile new boot.img with TWRP inside it.

Note : For Rooted & Unlocked Bootloader Only

Note : For 4.4 ROM (may work on older version of android. I don't own Xperia Go so didn't test it. So please provide feedback

1) Download the latest zip file.

2) Extract it in a folder and place your current rom's boot.img inside that folder. (it must be named boot.img)

3) Connect your phone with PC. (adb must be working)

4) Open your command line and cd to that folder

5) For linux users, type

chmod 755 run_me.sh
./run_me.sh

For windows users, type

run_me.bat

new boot.img file will be created in the current directory named new_boot.img. Power off your phone and flash the boot image.

fastboot flash boot new_boot.img

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul_Kolanjian:
Hello,

In order to exactly help you, I advise you to post your currently used firmware (stock Samsung Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jellybean), or if you're using custom OS (CyanogenMod, SlimRom, CyanFox, OmniRom... etc) but anyway, I'll try and help as much as possible. When I had my phone upgraded to stock 4.1.2, I had smooth performance and good battery life. However, after a while, the OS becomes laggy and I get a lot of overheating when the phone should simply go to deepsleep. Simply, I realized that the battery wasn't the problem, but rather, Samsung's TouchWiz was causing the problem. Having owned my phone for a year and 6 months, I get terrific battery life yet through using DorimanX Kernel which can customize your hardware settings to match your kind of usage. Using official SlimKat 3.0 Stable on Dorimanx 10.43v88, I can ger up to 4 days of battery with slight usage even when using Android Run-time. I would rather change the phone's OS instead of buying batteries in your case since changing the stock battery is only optimal in case the battery is bloated (becomes swelled/thickens in the middle). Good luck
