So I did a complete wipe in CWM on my Gnex. IMEI is gone and I can't find the nv_data files in /factory. Can I send my Gnex to someone and have them bring back my IMEI?

This is not a personal signature request thread.​

I've made a few of signature for a bunch of ROMs around here so I figured I would put them in one place so all users can easily find and use them as part of their own if they want to.​

Right-click any of the signatures, select "Copy Image URL" or "Save Image As" and you can add it into your signature using XDA's "Insert Image" option.

I made a huge mistake.

I failed to root my phone using this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2155864

I flashed the kernel from the 1st post (Advanced Stock Kernel) BUT forgot to download and save the SuperSU root ZIP file on my SD card before flashing the kernel.

When I reboot the phone, it keeps looping at the Sony logo.

I've only got 13% battery juice left, and I don't want to slip this up.

I can still access CWM/TWRP (the kernel is dual boot) and Fastboot.

I'm looking for a stock, rooted ZL image that I might be able to flash using Fastboot method. But I can't seem find one.

Someone please help. TY.

EDIT:

I was able to find a solution.

I downloaded the kernel from this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2641695

and the flashable ROM from this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2643900

I copied both ZIP files on my external SD card via a memory card reader, then flashed both files via CWM.

The phone successfully booted.

I hope this thread will provide a solution for others with the same problem.

Luckily, there was still 4% battery left. Whew. Time to charge it up!

You can mount your storage to the computer when you have a working custom recovery as you said and copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip to it using a usb cable.

Then you can flash it :)

You can always use Androxyde's Flashtool to go back to fully working Sony stock firmwares!

From there you can proceed with rooting.

So my Gmail app started to FC today when I open it. I tap the icon and it just doesn't start. However, I still get notifications that emails are coming through and I can still delete them through the notification panel as usual.

So far, I've tried clearing data, clearing cache, wiping dalvik and cache with twrp, and also fixing permissions with twrp.

The only way it works is if I uninstall updates and revert back to the old Gmail.

If I logon to Gmail on my computer and delete new messages, the little notification badge (in Nova Launcher) reflects the changes.

It was working fine until today, not quite sure what happened.

Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DoctorQMM:
Are you using a themed gmail? If so, chances are it was resigned by the Dev... and it won't play well with the latest Google Play Services update (4.3.x). Check to see if your Google Play Services updated... if so, just roll back to v4.2.43 (uninstall updates.. then restore 4.2.43 via TiBu). You will probably have to do this again when Play Services updates again. See this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51359618
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Thanks for the info!

No I'm not using a themed Gmail, just the standard. My play services are also up to date (4.3.24).

Would I benefit from clearing the play services data and cache?

Edit:

Oh wait, I think that fixed it. I reverted back to the stock version of play services (1.0.xx), opened Gmail successfully, then reinstalled 4.3 from the link in that thread. Gmail still opens post update.

Thanks for the tip, it definitely saved me a bunch of aggravation!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Update:

It was working, then an email came in. I opened the email from the notification bar and it just broke again.

Thank you kind sir, 4.2 seems to be working as of now. Sent myself a test email and it didn't break anything.

I guess Gmail isn't playing well with 4.3 at the moment, wonder why...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DoctorQMM:
np... glad you got it working. It's odd that 4.3 Play Services breaks authentic GMail. Keep that 4.2.43 version handy as you may need it again if Play Services auto updates again to 4.3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Yup, definitely.

I wasn't even aware that play services even updated. I can't seem to find a changelog either on it.

I hope Google gets around to fixing the issue on the next release though!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] echizen12:
I just wanna share this fix i found for unknown baseband in is12s acro hd phones. This happens when you forget to exclude the baseband in flashing the acro s rom to our phone.

STEPS:

1. Download these files https: // app . box . com / s / 8kek8d64r8o7l24w6hrz/1/1712759272 (remove the spaces)

2. Put both files on the same folder and unzip the .zip file (not the .z01), I used winrar because 7zip seems to not work for me. You should be able to unzip a single ftf file.

3. Open flashtool, click on the lightning logo and opt for flashmode.

4. Browse for the folder containing the ftf file you unzipped in step 2.

5. Exclude everything except for the baseband.

6. Tick on No final verification. (I dont know if this is relevant haha).

7. Power off your phone and connect the usb cable while holding the volume down button.

8. Wait for it........

9. Disconnect and turn the phone on, your signal should be back :)

Note:

*this should also be the same fix for the docomo versions but you should disregard step 1 and 2. Instead look for the s0-o3d rom, i think they are just around the forum.

*the ftf files are not mine, i found them here http: // skyfreaks .dip. jp / ?p=431

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fdm225:
Hi all,

I just purchased a Xperia Tablet Z 32 Gig Wifi (SGP312) and am seeing an amazing amount of battery drain. I was using the kindle app and dropped about 5% battery power (96% to 91%) in about 5 minutes. Being that I just purchased this tablet from Amazon I would like to know if this is normal or if this sounds like it could be a hardware issue? Also, does someone know if the custom roms (e.g. CM10 or CM11) have better battery life?

Thanks!

Dave

Ps. I am running build number 10.4.1.B.0.109
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snazarian:

dirty update issue. Im going to wipe/restore it to make sure im running clean...usually fixes things on the Galaxy s3/s4 devices..........
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james_lpool:
the battery in this tablet is quite a bit smaller than other tablets, the galaxy 10.1 2014 has a 8200mah battery and ours has a 6000mah battery, i bought this tablet having an idea that the battery would be poor and thats what i got.

I generally leave mine plugged in most nights while im on it or it will just run out and not last a whole night.

I have always just seen this as normal for this tablet though.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rootk1t:
reflash the firmware. Normally 2% battery loss overnight can be considered great, not 5% in 5 minutes.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackassassinuk:
Sorry if this doesn't help you but this is what I do and I have at least 7h usage on mine now from a single charge.

First up, if you are rooted try Greenify from app store, it saved a lot for me just doing all none system apps that don't require notifications or autoupdating (widgets).

Next up, drop your screen brightness, I regularly run mine on lowest setting. This isn't an issue as much if you don't mind removing Sony shatter protection on screen as it slightly darkens the screen, please be aware this is designed to stop your screen shattering if you drop it so do it at your own risk. I also use a generic matte screen protector to stop finger prints so you may not have this issue.

If you use custom ROM, most have performance settings, so if you don't use tablet for heavy gaming, you can save a lot of battery here by using power save settings and conservative processor governor. Again be careful with this if you are unsure, don't do it.

Lastly, most modern tablets etc have a fairly significant improvement the more you use it. Always try to run your battery to 10% or under before fully charging, however don't run it flat because you will most likely have issues.

Clean master is another app that helps me too. I turn off all settings except auto clean when screen turned off. Then go to memory boost and hold any apps you need running without being closed and press ignore.

Hope this helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] peakbagger66:
Hello, my phone is apparently soft bricked and stuck on the Samsung logo. I am trying to follow ATT's instructions on how to perform a master reset. These are the instructions I am following:

1. Power off the device.

NOTE: If unable to power off, remove and reinsert the battery.

2. Press and hold the Volume Up + Volume Down and Power key.

3. Release ONLY Power Key when Samsung Logo appears.

4. Use Volume Up and Volume Down to scroll down to "Wipe data/factory reset", and then press Power key to confirm to delete all the user data.

5. Scroll down to "Yes! delete all user data" and press the Power key to confirm.

6. When "Data wipe complete" is displayed, select "Reboot system now" and press Power key to confirm to reboot your handset.​

Problem is, when I reach step 3, I get an animated Android with some blue thing in it's belly that spins faster and faster until the Samsung Galaxy SII logo appears and gets stuck again.

I've attached an image of the logo I am seeing.

I'm probably doing something stupid. Anyone have any ideas

EDIT: The phone is completely stock. Not rooted, no ROMS, etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
As far as I can remember, that logo comes with custom recovery but not the stock recovery. What firmware is installed on the phone?

Basically, you are not able to boot into recovery. You should try again, holding down all three keys, vol+ vol- pwr, until: the Galaxy SII logo appears, screen goes black, Galaxy SII logo appears again. Then release all three buttons. Recovery should come up within a few seconds.

If you are unable to get into recovery, you will need to re-flash the stock firmware using Odin. We can guide you through the process if you are unfamiliar with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] peakbagger66:
Hi CreepynCrawly. I tried the three button salute, hold down until you see the logo twice thing but it always goes to the animation. No menu! Tried more than just a few times, thinking I was fat fingering something.

So, I gave up and I took the flash to stock firmware route. My phone is at Android version is 4.1.2 and baseband I777UCMD8.

I downloaded Odin 3.0.9 and the stock firmware from Sammobile . It fails when it attempts to write the sbl.bin. (see attached). I've tried a few times and two different machines. I also tried doing a restore from Kies (installed the USB drivers along with it). Should I just keep trying? Seems like some people had success with that (although I don't understand why).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] badger109:
I think we need to use Odin 1.8.5 for our device... don't quote me though. You could try that instead
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] peakbagger66:
Thanks Badger, I tried it, but it seems to just hang. I wonder if it is a hardware issue. It just "happened" that way. Had it in my bag. Took it out, and there it was, all soft bricked and what-not with the Samsung logo. Had not installed anything whatsoever in the past few days.

3 months to go before I can upgrade. I can live with my Captivate 'til then I guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
This sounds like it could be a case of nand read/write corruption. The fix is fairly specific. And it is recommended to use Odin version 1.85 for this phone, although any version of Odin should work (in theory.) There have been some reports where newer versions of Odin did not.

Since you currently have UCMD8, you will be changing to an earlier version of the os during this procedure, so you will need to perform a wipe data/factory reset from within recovery after step 2 before the phone will boot. Please follow the steps in order and exactly.

1)Go to this post and download the Tar version of Siyah 2.6.14 Kernel. Flash it in the PDA slot without ticking Re-Partitioning. If you get a pass, it won't boot, so turn the phone off and then back to download mode and...

2) Flash the full stock Gingerbread distribution from the Download Repository, I777UCKH7 including the bootloaders and everything, in the PDA slot.

3) If you get a pass here, then the phone might boot, or you might have to boot into recovery first and perform a wipe data/factory reset. If you're able to boot the phone, then you are back in business, and can flash whatever firmware you want.

If it is not, then:

4) Download the SBL Bootloader from the Download Repository. Flash it as PDA in ODIN, without ticking Re-Partitioning.

5) Flash the Kernel, as in step 1.

6) Flash the full stock Gingerbread distribution, as in step 2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] peakbagger66:
erponsha maniacal

Hi CreepynCrawly, I started on your suggestion, but I cannot get past the kernel update. The green progress bar in Odin goes green and then just sits there with "NAND Write Start!!!". I let it sit for 30 minutes the first time, and then I tried with different versions of Odin - 1.3, 3.09, etc...no go. Found an article on here about a similar issue and went through the checklist - different USB ports, different computers, different cables, Odin version, etc, etc...not much success. The download count has increased though, and "Current Binary" says "Custom" on the phone. Any ideas from here on would be great, because my Captivate is kind of sad comparatively speaking :).

[EDIT]: I've also tried flashing the SBL from the Download Repository - same issue. It sticks at "NAND Write Start!!"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Yeah, my wife is still using my old captivate. I just bought her an SII on Swappa, so once I get her new phone set up for her, I'll be selling her captivate.

If steps 1 - 3 didn't work, you should proceed to steps 4 - 6. Loading the secondary bootloader first may allow the kernel to flash, followed by a successful system flash. Try it out and let us know.

The flash counter is really irrelevant now that the phone is out of warranty, but it can be dealt with later once the phone is booting normally. Completing the process will remove the yellow triangle warning boot screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] peakbagger66:
Yup - Step 4 hangs - green progress bar and then "NAND Write Start!!" and then...nothing! It just sits there. Am I toast or what? :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The common understanding is that if the phone can boot into download mode, it can be recovered to working. This would be true in all but a few rare cases of partial emmc memory damage. I would still assume that your phone can be made to work again.

Please view this post in another thread. I'm not familiar with "hg42's 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start.zip" but it would be worth the time to find this file and try it to see what it reports.

There are a large variety of things that can prevent Odin from completing. You need to do some research, and try all the possible issues, but just off the top of my head, it could be due to the cable, the usb port on the computer, the usb port on the phone, the usb driver on the computer, etc. So, try different cables - a Samsung original usb cable is best, try different ports on the computer, try a different computer, reinstall the usb driver, etc.

I flashed my S3 and it didnt have any problems but Ive never dealt with an HTC before.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jethrodesign:
Hi,

I'm a bit new here and running a good old-fashioned stock Inc 4G LTE, never rooted or flashed to new ROM. It DOES have the latest OTA update from Verizon a couple months ago.

This morning my phone suddenly went off after working OK. Then when trying to restart, I get an infinite boot loop and it won't get past the red Droid screen. I've searched various threads and tried what I think are the most obvious things, and nothing seems to help. But I want to make sure there are no other options before I throw it in the trash.

Here's what I tried:

- Tried entering Safe Mode by holding down volume key after HTC screen comes on. Makes no difference, does not enter Safe Mode.

- Get to HBOOT OK. Says 'LOCKED' and I am running HBOOT v.1.15.0000.

- - In HBOOT, I've tried running Recovery a couple times. Seems to go OK, but just starts looping when restarting.

- - In HBOOT, tried running Recovery > Wipe Cache Partition. Says cache is cleared.

- - In HBOOT, tried running Recovery > Wipe data/factory reset. Seem to go through OK.

- - In HBOOT, tried running Factory Reset.

- - In HBOOT, tried running Clear Storage.

- Pulled battery and tried spare.

- Removed SD card.

Some history - this phone has always been very sluggish. A few months ago started shutting down when doing camera intensive things (would jump to battery at critical level). So I did a factory reset a couple weeks ago and was slowly adding some of the essential apps back in. It crashed trying to upload photos to Facebook. Last night I had just moved some apps to the Phone storage and set my Sound Profile app to change profiles in the morning. This is about the time the phone crashed.

Anything else I should try before giving up?

Can I try to root and install a custom ROM to fix when in this state? Is this now possible with latest OTA update?

If custom ROM is last chance, is there a really solid one running 4.3 and Sense?

THANKS! May be time to get a HTC One or iPhoney, as I'm just not into huge phones that are coming out...
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jethrodesign:
I tried running a stock 2.17.. RUU, but got a "Failed" message because the software was too old. I'm guessing that is because I'm on the newer 2.19.. OTA update?!? Anyone know where to get a RUU file for the latest 2.19 version? I've been searching with no luck.

I'll have to research how to root/unlock the phone when it won't boot. Any specific threads that have fairly detailed instructions would be appreciated.

Thanks!
