Why is that when i flash a kernel on a compatible rom it boots to the samsung note 2 logo for a few seconds then it just sits there black?, no progress is ever made, only sitting there black. when i decide to restore to the fresh nandroid backup i made before the kernel flash it always corrupts it somehow and i cant restore to it, always gives me an error at the restoring data part :confused:. Its for the tmobile note 2; please and thanks for the help

I currently am running slimkat rom 4.4.2 on my note 2(tmo), when I flashed Perseus kernel on my phone I was using a regular debloated 4.3 rom but still went black. I have CWM, when I flashed everything was good(booting up never past the black screen) when I went to recover back to my fresh backup it starts off good but when I gets to recovering data it sits there for a few minutes and then it gives me an error "error recovering from backup". I wish I had more to say but I'm writing this from my phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
make sure you are on the latest version of CWM. I don't know if perseus is still supported. I would give agni or devil kernel a try. also flash your rom then boot it up. Then reboot back to recovery and flash the kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] oCazper:
Thank you, I'll give it a try in a few

Edit: sorry it took a while to respond after flashing one of your suggested kernels; I flashed devils kernel and it worked great no black screens, absolutely no problem at all :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dumbmayhem:
Hi guys,

Managed to get Viper 6.1.0 onto my HTC One after an upgrade of an old trickdroid rom.

Installation runs fine but as soon as I finish the setup wizard I get an error saying the setup wizard has stopped working and then I'm left with a blank screen as to which I can only get to the notification bar.

I found 1 thread via the search, as well as google, which pointed to fixing it via a wipe before installing however I'm doing that already due it coming from a different ROM anyway.

Running hboot 1.44, s-on, twrp 2.7.0.0 if that makes any difference as I've not flashed in a while but didn't see any info about having to upgrade the hboot.
[Nook Touch General] dayofthedaleks:
So I've been toying with the idea of using the NST as a hiking pad. Backcountry Navigator seems to run fairly well on the Nook. After enabling mock locations via Sqlite3, I was able to get TetherGPS picking up GPS location data from my phone... except the service keeps dying.

At first, I thought the service stopped updating the location because of the app's paywall. But after purchasing the full version of TetherGPS, I determined that the Tethergps service seems to be dying after a resource-intensive application such as Maps or Backcountry Navigator starts getting demanding.

Adb reads:

I/NotificationService( 880): enqueueToast pkg=com.comptonsoft.tgps callback=android.app.ITransientNotification$Stub$Proxy@4a1d24e0 duration=0

~service starts~

I/ActivityManager( 880): Process com.comptonsoft.tgps (pid 5222) has died.

W/ActivityManager( 880): Scheduling restart of crashed service com.comptonsoft.tgps/.TGPS_client in 14063ms

I/ActivityManager( 880): Start proc com.comptonsoft.tgps for service com.comptonsoft.tgps/.TGPS_client: pid=5393 uid=10057 gids={3003}

~service attempts to restart, but the notifications flag just hangs and GPS updates do not commence. service needs to be restarted manually~

I tried freeing up a sizeable chunk of RAM for testing, but extra available RAM didn't change the behavior. I'm wondering if I couldn't be hitting some limit in maximum concurrent processes. Are there any settings I could be pushing via Sqlite3 to allow more processes?

I am of course open to any other suggestions or theories.

I'm currently using Pinguy's custom NST firmware. I'll try to make certain the behavior is the same with other rooting methods.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xLubricant:
So I'm looking to buy the S5.

I want to get it from T-Mobile, however my credit is not great.

According to their credit check my credit seems slightly better than the "Building Credit" option. They want $120 per device as a down payment.

I'm getting two S5's, both plus taxes comes to around $382. Fine by me.

A couple questions, is their a deposit if so how much would it generally be, and do I have to pay the first months bill upfront?

And is tax for the device paid upfront?

Anything more than $500 at once is just gonna turn me away so I would like some answers, thanks guys!

an some months after a friend let me his phone with similar problems and got solved the same way.

booth phone were with lastest HBOOT 2.28.!! aln lastest radio.!

Attention.!! Im not responsable for any more DAMAGE or/if it can happen even if you have your phone already briked.. so play responsable..!!

ok. let me be a bit clear, i've got 2 diferent rezound with similar problems and booth got solved the same way

phone 1: Only showed white htc boot logo, and also onle let me acces hboot and fastboot, no recovery(custom or stock).NO BOOT.

phone 2: showed white htc logo,hboot,fastboot and also recovery but it was giving me emmc error an couldnt acces to any partition.

you will need some knowledge in FASTBOOT.!!! look for help over the web.!

STEP BY STEP GUIDE:

1)Fully Charge your Battery.!

2)Download this file-----> it have Hboot 2.28 and Radios 2.23 at: http://d-h.st/BIj http://d-h.st/BIj place it in your Fastboot folder.!

3)open CMD with Administrative Permitions(right click run as administrator)

4)cd to fastboot folder

5)put device in Fastboot mode(turn on pressing power + vol.down, then select fastboot).

5.1)if hboot unlocked relockit with fastboot oem lock, will reboot phone and show RELOKED.

6)run: fastboot oem rebootRUU. phone will reboot again and show Black Screen with HTC.

7)run: fastboot flash zip Firmware.zip (firmware.zip should be the file you downloaded in step 2!).

8)if everything goes well you will see a green bar moving on your phone and fastboot should start working and showing some files flashing i dont know hahaha.

9) wait it takes about 5 mins. when your cmd window shows that it finish, your phone will still have a green bar on it. just run

fastboot reboot

and the magic its done.!! :cool: wait other five mins for the phone to boot and start messing with it again.!!!

will attach a picture with my cmd windows if someone got lost.!try to figure them out hahah those are the things i saw all my files were on downloads but i already have fastboot preinstaled.

as i said before i hope this mini tutorial works for you guys. it will be cool if people in the forum put this as stickie.!! i've seen like a 1000 post with the same problem.!!

have fun.!!

Be VERY careful if you have custom recovery installed (TWRP/CWM/PhilZ/AmonRa), locking or re-locking the bootloader well S-ON can result in a hard brick situation.
[HTC Rezound] inchewazu:
In my situations one never entred in recovery and the other one didnt show any problem.
[HTC Rezound] inchewazu:
I know but this is the only solution ive founde wirh my two problems and i think theres nothing to loosenif your phone is already bricked trust me ive try everything with these phones
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I'm not knocking your procedures or process... What I am saying is that if you have custom recovery installed and you relock, there is a definite potential for hard brick, if you are going to relock well S-on with custom recovery, there is a real possibility of bricking... One should flash stock recovery via fastboot prior to relocking.
[HTC Rezound] inchewazu:
well i guess you'r right so hope that doesnt happens to anyone around, well by the way probably no one uses this phone any more :P but tanks for pointing that important info. :)

In Germany, many providers block audio-/video-over-the-mobile-interwebs in almost any of their flatrate plans. I'm not sure if that method can be (and is) applied to file transfers / voice messages (sending a recorded file instead of streaming your audio live) as well.

hello, im new here, sry my english isnt good.

Today I went to buy the s4 but in the 3 stores I went, none came with the plastic screen that says Super amolet nfc etc. It came a normal transparent screen protector. they say that the printed plastic screen that says samguns not come anymore. is true or false?

I am in doubt because they are Chinese

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownie2k:
Not sure if the same applies to the newer S4's that are shipping, but when I went to get my S5 (second hand, but never opened) it came with a clear screen protector style cover over the screen. The box had never been opened and it was 100% genuine.

Maybe Samsung are cutting back on things, or they realise that using a pre-fitted, temporary screen protector is better?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Isaac K:
Thanks for your reply, when you say that i should expect plastic wrap, do you mean on the exterior of the box, or inside the box. All the phones that i have bought here in Panama are never with plastic wrap around the box. With regards to the plastic on the screen, would you say that the newer phones might be bringing the plastic clear so they serve as temporary screen protector. Would ordering stateside be better and if so do you recommend a reputable dealer.

thanks

That's odd, I live in Costa Rica. Some stores sell without the plastic wrap around the box. But I never buy like that cuz I cannot guarantee that the device has never been used.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tshmit1:
I'd like my new m8 to be set up as closely as possible to my old m7, but I'm a little confused about the overlapping restore capabilities between Titanium Backup Pro and Google Play (and assume HTC Sync adds nothing those two don't have)

The m7 is running stock 4.4 and TB Pro. The m8 is running stock 4.4.2 and is fresh out of the box except for being rooted.

My plan is to use TB to restore my user apps and data, and then selectively restore system apps, at a minimum things like SMS, Call History, Clock, because I'm under the impression Google Play won't restore those apps and data. But what does Google Play restore? Contacts? Calendar? Phone settings? Do I need to worry about the TB and GP restores stepping on each other?

Or is 4.4 close enough to 4.4.2 that I can just restore all system apps and data using TB and not worry about it?

Any help is much appreciated!

The combination of HTC backup and ES file explorer (app manager) have served me well

and google takes care of my contact list and paid apps. Dropbox comes in handy as well
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luigi311:
Google Play will handle all your contacts if you chose to save them on your google account, if not you can manually save them by going to people then pressing menu and put manage contacts, in there there is a import/export contacts option open that up and put export to phone storage, select phone and put no, then ok, this will output a file called pcsc_pcsc_001.vcf to your phone storage so all you have to do is transfer that to your m8 and put import.

Never restore system applications across different devices as it can cause issues, to transfer sms messages open the messages application and put backup/restore sms and select back up and select ok, it will give you the option to backup sms or backup sms via mail, just select backup sms, you can put in a password or select the box that says do not password protect this backup, you can name it if you'd like, after the backup is complete the file is stored under a folder called sms_backup so all you have to do is transfer it to the m8 under the same location and put restore.

For app data you can go with the titanium backup method or under settings there a backup & reset section, inside there's a back up my data just enable that either select and htc account or google account it tells you what it saves, I've personally never used this method but it seems to be easier than transferring everything manually.

Theres also a get content from another phone under the settings, since your transferring to a m8 just put htc android device and it give you the option for quick transfer or full transfer, full transfer requires you to download an application on on your m8 and link the to devices, the transfer is done via a wifi hotspot that is created on your m7 so charges may apply.

All these options are present on sense 5.5, not sure how all these options stand on any of the sense 6 ports or if all are present and done the same way on sense 5. Good luck transferring and enjoy your m8
