Ok I can't get twrp to install on my g2. I'm rooted on 24A OTA and I've tried flashify with the pre lokied twrp files, both the 2.6.3.3 & 2.7 in this post but after I flash them and I reboot it gives me an error saying "secure booting error" then it just shuts off. I can reboot just fine but I can't get twrp to install. Any ideas as whats going wrong?
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
Since you're on 24A you need Auto-Rec. It will do everything for you. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2715496 What's happening is Loki was blocked on Kit Kat. You have to flash the JB aboot first that can still be loki'd. Then the app will flash recovery for you.
[Verizon LG G2] jurington:
Thank you, and where can I find that?
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
Sorry I was editing for that. Lol. Check my previous post
[Verizon LG G2] jurington:
Thank you so much!!!!!!!! Now can I flash one of the themed twrp files now that I got twrp installed? And thank you again
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
You're welcome! If you're talking about the ones from my thread yes. AutoRec flashed the 12B bootloader for you and recovery. All of mine are patched to work on 12B ☺

Fasboot works. but no fastbook commands do

Hi,

I can get my Asus FTD 302C into fastboot using adb (reboot bootloader). It sits there saying 'awaiting fastboot commands'. But if I try to give it a fastboot command, it replies that there's no device connected (obviously, there is, or I wouldn't have gotten this far).

What is fastboot waiting for? Anyone else have this problem, or a workaround to it. Restarting the tablet doesn't give it what it wants.

Any chance someone could link me the Zip? It looks like the file isn't on JR's Dropbox anymore, and I'm trying to get to 2.7 before going from CM to JCP's CM.

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
Which zip are you looking for?
[Verizon LG G2] EtherBoo:
The 2.7.0.0 TWRP that's Loki'd for 12B.
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
I only have 2.7.1 now. I deleted all of my old stuff to make room. Do you know if you have a LGD or JDI display? If not run this command in terminal emulator. Type su then hit enter first. Then

cat proc/cmdline

Then hit enter again. Take a screen shot and post it here.
[Verizon LG G2] EtherBoo:
Thanks for all your help.

Here's the screenshot:

[IMG="Terminal Emulator Screenshot"]http://i.imgur.com/6BhSmzD.png[/IMG]

Most of the instructions say to be on 2.7.0.0 - if 2.7.1.0 will work just the same, that's fine too, I'm just trying to cover my bases to follow the instructions as closely to the letter as I can :).
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
Do you currently have any custom recovery now or are you still on stock recovery? I can't see that screen shot on Tapatalk. I have to look at it through the browser on my lunch break

Edit: What ROM are you running? For some reason it didn't return what I was looking for. Let me make a stock TWRP 2.7.1 tonight with the correct Loki patch, with that one it won't matter what display you have. I think you have a LGD display with LGE listed everywhere but I'm not 100% sure. I'll PM it to you tonight.
[Verizon LG G2] EtherBoo:

[HTC Typhoon] dominicsonic:
Hi all,

I've just broke the screen of my spv c500 (orange) and I can't see anything.

How can I retrieve data from it ? most important is the address book.

I pluged it via usb and I could retrieve the photos and some messaging data here:

\Windows\Messaging (files are in *.mpb format and I cannot view them, but whatever, this is not so important..)

but where is the

ADDRESS BOOK

on this device ?

I just need a path or a method to read it ...

Note: I never used Active Sync :(

Thanks a lot for your help,

Cheers,

pj
[HTC Typhoon] vijay555:
If you've got access to Visual Studio/EVC, you can use Remote Zoomin to view the screen over activesync. Then, you can install a remote control app and control your device like that temporarily.

Your best bet is to download a trial of a backup app like Sprite, do a full system backup, and work from there.

It would be wise for you to use ActiveSync ASAP, it'll backup automatically.

Address book will be saved in a database file, hopefully cemail.vol and pim.vol etc in your root.

Go to Main Menu > [1] UMTS > [1] Debug Screen > [8] Phone Control > [6] Network Lock >then I just get this message....MENU NOT EXIST PRESS BACK KEY Current command is 186

thopughts please
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Very difficult to understand you, but flashing a firmware has nothing to do with network lock.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KSKHH:
If your phone is unable to connect Virgin network then how come it asked you to download config settings. Are you able to call any one? If not then flash the correct firmware. (Refer sammobile)

If you are able to dial out and only internet is issue then google and find out virgin mobile internet configuration and do it manually.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe sando:
hi thanks for your input

my phone is running gt-i9300xxugmk6_btu

now im very stupid when it comes to things like this

the phone now says virgin on the home screen

I can send an mms message to another phone and I can use the phones mobile internet as now the mms apn and mobile internet

I can not receive texts on this phone that's why I am not getting the virgin settings

and I can not make or receive any telephone calls

like I said im very stupid so I really need some help in getting these settings manually into the phone or a virgin media firmware perhaps ive looked on the net until my head hurts

thanks in advance

after doing *#1234# I have the following

ap/;i9300xxugmk6

cp:i9300xxugmk6

csc:i9300xagmk6
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
When you installed the rom (BTU is fine its a generic UK Europe firmware so any sim should work) did you do a factory reset to clean the phone of all the custom stuff, if not then do that, Settings > Accounts > Backup and Reset then Factory Data Reset if you are running Android 4.3

This will wipe the phone data and settings to return it to factory state of the BTU rom, move any pictures, music etc from the internal storage to your external SD card or you will lose it

When the phone reboots you will need to set it up from scratch as if you had just got it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe sando:
hi yes ive done all that but alas no sms or call facility its doing my head in now

I have a chinky phone that I flash regular and never had an issue

I have selected t mobile form the choice I had and that's how I got to send mms as when I select virgin I just get mobile internet from the sim

I feel like smashing the phone up
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shayind4:
In addition to the above: reboot the phone and go to Settings..more settings...Mobile networks....network operators. ..select Virgin and let phone register on the network.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe sando:
ok will try that and report back;)

so rebooted put my virgin sim in and proceeded to skip everything until it said

tmobile or virgin

selected virgin

then went to settings and networks selected virgin it took ages before I got the registerd on network message

so now goe to access point names

apn is virgin mobile media internet

and nothing else..i got the pop up about con fig settings I clicked yes and nothing has come

now I REALLY want to hit this phone with a large hammer

Call Virgin customer service.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe sando:
hi this sim works flawless in my chinky phone

is there any way I can find out if my phone is barred and if it was barred would I be able to use the phone for mms as it can send mms?

sorry if this is stupid btw
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shayind4:
Don't know how to check if the phone is barred. As your phone registered on Virgin network, I don't think it's network-locked.

Try a sim from a different network to see if you can replicate the problem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
Maybe try factory reset and setup without the sim card in. After the set up shut down and pop in the SIM, then restart. Make sure mobile data and wifi are off when you restart.

It is odd, because it should automatically configure without the need to download anything.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe sando:
ok thanks will try that

ok done all that phoned virgin support

they are suggesting it is locked onto the previous network

thing is I don't know what the network was before so I guess

ive got hold of a small wifi tablet for the boys to play with

unless someone can point me in the right direction?????
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
Use KIES to recover the original phone firmware,

Start Kies do not connect the phone turn that off and remove the battery

On the menu bar go to Tools > Firmware Upgrade and Installation them follow the instructions

This will put the most up to date original firmware version on the phone but may well sim lock it if it was previously locked to a network

Hello,

I cannot get access to wifi settings via phone dialer.

I used saferoot and followed instructions.

When I use root checker it says its rooted I have supersu installed and it even asks if I want to grant.

[Omni Q&A] crutchcorn:
MultiView was an amazing feature and obviously the talking point of this rom for many including myself. With some other Samsung products (new TabPro 12.2) you can even have as many as 4 things on screen at once. What do you guys think the future of MultiView will be and what things do you all want to see? For me personally, I want to see better integration with HALO))) and being able to drag a window around and snap it into place. Then, once you have one of them dragged to the side, it would act like multi view again.
[Omni Q&A] carlinleos:
Hi how do you activate HALO)))?
[Omni Q&A] crutchcorn:
You can do this through a custom rom (Paranoid Android or PAC rom should do the trick) or by using the HALO))) Xposed module on a rooted phone. Hope this helped.

[HTC Rezound] Eddie Hicks:
My Rezound is unlocked, rooted, stock rom and S-on. I want to sell it but first I want to remove all of my data and get it as close to factory as I can. From what I can gather the only way to get it back completely stock is to be S-off but that process seems a little much for me to try. Which of these 3 options is best for what I'm trying to do? A factory reset in the bootloader, a complete wipe of everything in TWRP or factory reset on the phone's settings? Thanks
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Without RUUing, which requires S-OFF, and assuming you have the correct firmware/radios, the best bet I have found is a total wipe in TWRP (everything, including internal but not external SD), then install http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2260154, it is a COMPLETELY stock 4.5.605.14 ROM with root added, after that is flashed, boot into TWRP again and wipe the external SD. It should be stock enough to sell.

If you want, you can even flash the stock recovery, but it shouldn't be necessary as long as you let the buyer know what you have done to it... I don't expect any more OTAs from VZW for this device, so it should be good to go.
[HTC Rezound] Eddie Hicks:
Thanks a million. That was perfect and easy. I'm thinking maybe I'll just keep it for a backup instead of selling it.
[Micromax A110] lenith:
I dont know how many of you noticed this behaviour of A110 that when we are travelling in train and put the phone on charger touch goes crazy and phone starts acting completly weired. I dont know but may be it has something with AC/DC current? Even sometime i have observed this behaviour during normal charging at home as well. Any of you noticed such thing?
[Micromax A110] rkh52685:
Yes only in train
[Micromax A110] Jukel Rakesh:
It is due to fluctuation in voltage I get while using other chargers!

because train power is from AC->DC->AC again, lots of noise.

Hello good people,

I'm looking for an app that could mirror screen between android devices (no PCs required).

I've looked around a little, found ScreenShare, but it only mirrors web pages, & photos (at least that's what worked for me).

My situation is that I'll be soon flying abroad and I'll need to mirror my tablet's screen to another tablet so two people could watch the same video at the same time.

If anybody knows of a working app, please let me know.

Thanks!

How can I get it to say official?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wizardragon:
I am going on a flight in two parts with an 8 hour wait in the middle - then onto a train for another four hours which is 5 hours after my flight arrives.

When I am waiting I am intending to access the net, and also use the phone to play films on the flights/train.

I had thought about getting a high capacity battery to use with the standard one, but I guess run times would go beyond their capacities as the total usage runs to over 24 hours even without delays.

I had seen solar chargers on ebay - but although I could probably use it on a train - i doubt if it could be used on a flight - but guess it could be fairly useful for camping etc.

I also saw a "powerpack" that charged USB devices by using 4 standard AA batteries, and thought this would be a better bet, as I am likely to be able to buy them at airports and stations etc so I can keep the phone running.

Any suggestions of the best way to do this - or errors in my idea?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kevino:
With an 8 hour stopover, I'm sure you can find somewhere in the airport to re-charge without worrying about batteries.

How long are the flights ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
Maybe your flight will have power ports as well? I know some do, although typically not in economy, where I travel, whence one must "jack" into the bio-electrical discharges of our own thought processes to merely heat "dinner".

You can also get those new fangled ipod charging things as well. Charge em up overnight, then use them to recharge the ipod or any other usb/firewire device on the go. Might help. Can't remember where I saw it.

It is an ex soviet asian and eastern european air services and an ex soviet asian train.

Also I got a 6v rechargeable battery out a burgar alarm I was removing (from a friends house- honest!!!) which is about 7cm x 10cm x 15cm and was rated in double figures Ah. I guess this could be the start of the ultimate travel charger/extender.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] orahm:
solar charger

The solution here is a solar charger. I got one of a ebay that is strong enough on a sunny day that you can run the device without the battery depleting. It's about as big as a CD case with 2 cd's next to eachother. It has a zigarette lighter jack so you can use your car charger.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] wizardragon:
The charger worked unbelievably well. It had a small LED that got dimmer as the power was used up, which without there was no way of saying if it was still putting power into the phone.

I never used it to charge the phone as such as the phone was in my belt pouch - but plugged it in when I was using it so the power was kept at full all the time.

The solar charger someone mentioned would not really have been useful due to the low light levels inside the airport and after dark on the train, and I think the airline staff would have been looking a bit worried when someone tried to attach something against a window on a flying plane, but obviously would have been good for something like camping in the middle of nowhere where there were no power supply or shops.

Regarding the airline headset charger - I would guess these would run on a lowish voltage (3v i would guess without checking) so may not give the phone that good a charge.

I got it here...
