VZW outage

Stumbled on this thread, but I had no network connection in Clifton about 7:30 last evening. Thought it might be phone so even after reboot, no connection. Strange, but could not connect to Optimum network either. Half hour later, all seemed good but I had moved 30 miles.

So I just got my S5 yesterday, it is all stock unrooted. When listening to music in the car, between songs, there is this popping sound. Not super annoying, but still it's not very pleasant to hear. Also happens when a notification sound goes off in the middle of a song, between the end of the notification sound and when the music starts again. Anyone else have this problem?

Perhaps someone can help me out with this:

My Wizard is always telling me there is one unread message in my sms Drafts-folder. Unfortunately, if I open the folder, there is nothing there to delete.

Does anyone have a clue which regentry I need to play around with for this annoyance to disappear?

hi, what should i do to download app like gmail and google chrome?? in Ostore and Aptoide there isn't this app. Thanks
[Ornate TrueSmart] funky0308:
Install Google Play Store or download apk files on your watch (from web, Google them) and install them on your watch.

First, go to settings/security and check this box
[Ornate TrueSmart] stronzo92:
thanks a lot, can i do another question? when I select "time provided by the network", the clock provided me a wrong time…is there a way to have the right time? if i put the right time manually, when i turn off the clock, it becomes wrong again.
[Ornate TrueSmart] funky0308:
Check your time zone settings.

It's probably on Chinese or something similar time zone...

It's hard for me tell without watch but I guess that should be it...

[Droid RAZR M General] deathwithafi:
Got a question

Do I have to restore factory settings to receive Ota? I'm rooted with locked bootloader. Removed alot of apps like zappos
[Droid RAZR M General] b0uncyfr0:
You will see the update and it will prompt to install but it will fail because the OTA's are very sensitive to change. They require the exact stock rom from the latest version before kitkat i believe. Since youve removed the Zappos app, it will definitely fail. This is why majority are going back to stock just to get the kit-kat update.
[Droid RAZR M General] deathwithafi:
again

i understand that to be a really involved and technical process?
[Droid RAZR M General] Coronado is dead:
Really you just need to use RSDLite to return to stock. Depending on all you have done you may need to modify the .XML file in the image, but its very easy and just uses Notepad.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badwiring:
I've killed my SGP311 several times to the point where I couldn't get the slightest sign of life out of it. It's been a while so I forget the volume up/down/power combination when connecting to my PC to fix it with Emma. But I would sometimes spend 10-20 minutes trying to get any response before the PC recognized it. And some PCs just won't recognize it. I'm sure it must be possible to really mess it up but I had no idea what I was doing and flashed stuff in places where it had no business being flashed. It's like the movie scene where someone is doing CPR and they give up and then they punch the guy in the chest again and slap him and he wakes up. Don't give up.

Just yesterday I have not been able to access my rear camera, thought it was the rom i was using, flashed a new rom and the problem is still there.

When i open any kind of app that uses the rear camera such as snapchat - it can't connect to the camera

Instagram Force closes

Samsung camera app is just black

I have also used the secret codes to get into the testing hardware area and it reports

data line failed

then repeatedly says Warning camera failed

caches wiped factory reset everything and still no joy

I have taken apart the phone and have checked the ribbon cables and all were in and secure (100% sure)

so this leaves me with the only thing left. faulty module

I can only seem to find a replacement for a i9500,

so would this:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
I'll take up the task to help you. You are not bricked. You are stuck in something called a bootloop, which is basically when the device enters the boot sequence, but never finishes. The flower pattern that you are looking at us called the boot animation. The computer never recoginizes the tablet through ADB because the tablet never gets to that point.

The screen with the Android laying on his back is actually the bootloader itself. That's why restarting the bootloader brings you to the same screen. I actually want you to be in the bootloader screen. You already have the Nexus 7.2 drivers, so you're ahead of the game.

You also need to visit here to download TWRP 2.7. You also need to put the file in the same directory as the fastboot and adb files.

You need to boot into the bootloader, and run the command:

fastboot flash recovery <recoveryname>.img

This should get TWRP onto your device. You can then download a rom of your choice to put on the tablet. Since you will not have access to place files on the device through USB, you will have to sideload it. First, let's get recovery working, then come back to me if you need help sideloading the rom through ADB while in recovery.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
Dear aarsyl,

Thx for your help and it is much better to know my device is not "bricked". Thx again!

Thx for your detailed explaination and I feel much better by knowing a little bit more on what is going on.

>>>>You also need to visit here to download TWRP 2.7. You also need to put the file in the same directory as the fastboot and adb files.

[I also found it in my computer already .\WugFresh Development\data\Recovery_Custom\TWRP

but I downlaod it again from your link and put this file in the same directory where I find the fastboot.exe and adb.exe, which in my case is .\WugFresh Development\data\ ------ done.]

>>>>You need to boot into the bootloader, and run the command:

[- I supose you refer to my Nexus 7, so I will switch it on with the "power button + vol -" button. and get it into the bootloader.]

>>>>fastboot flash recovery <recoveryname>.img

[Here I got an query, what image file I need to use? is it the <openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-flo> ? Do I neeed to run it as an adminstartor in Window 7?

so, do u mean I need to type: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-flo.img ?

is it right?--(A)

if not, then I am not sure what recovery file to be used!

I do not have any other img file in package I downloaded previously

>>>>This should get TWRP onto your device. You can then download a rom of your choice to put on the tablet.

First, let's get recovery working, then come back to me if you need help sideloading the rom through ADB while in recovery.

Not quite understand it this bit, but as you say. it can wait later.

So assume I do the "fastboot flash recovery <recoveryname>.img and get the TWRP on the Nexus 7.

What do I expect to see from the nexus screen. Does it have any note saying completed, or shuold I expect a reboot of the Nexus.

I think one of the problem dealing with these kind of thing is lack of acknowledgment fromt eh machine so we do not know if the operation is successful or not.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I decided to have a go with the downloaded twrp img file.

I launched the command " fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-flo.img" from a command window as an adminstrator.

The command failed with an error saying (remote: Bootloader is locked)

And when I check the Nexus 7 screen, it does said "Locked Status - locked" in the last line.

photo showing both the computer and teh Nexus 7 screen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
Oh, I hadn't realized that you were still locked. No wonder you're not getting anywhere.

Reboot into the bootloader, and run:

fastboot oem unlock

Follow the screen instructions to unlock the bootloader, then run the command to flash the recovery. I advise changing the recovery name to something shorter and simpler, like twrp27flo.img, for example.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
Hi, Nice to have reply from you again.

Ammm. I switch on the device to the bootloader alright. run teh command "fastboot oem unlock"

On teh command window, it said" < waiting for device>

and there is no visible change on the device screen.

It already last for 10 minutes now.

I do noted that both windows are freezed and do not respond to key press and button press respectively. No responds on both the device and computer.

How lond does this process take to show the mentioned "screen instruction"? I don't see one!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
wow.. it is unlocked now!

Should I continue to use the "fastboot recover command with TWRP file" as per your advise or should I continue to use the "Root" command in NexusRoot Toolkit ??

It is very happy to see there is progress.. Thx...

please keep coming...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
I would go with using fastboot to install TWRP. In truth, to truly "root" your device, you actually need a working rom on the device. Otherwise, rooting will be in vain. Unlocking the device was the most important.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
Hi again,

Yes. my device is now boot up as brand new.

One side observation though, every time I issue command through window 7 in a command window, everything will freeze up, (not remember if I unplugged the device) until I press the power button to restart the Nexus 7. Same for the last time when i did the unlock and this time recovery.

The hesitation was how do I know when to do this, was worrying there is still some communication between the two machines if I unplug or interfer, may just disturb the communication and corrupt files. -- I normally give it some 10 minutes before I do the unplug and restart. any comment or advice?

Anyway, the device is now up and running. What is the status now? is it with the original version of software? or TWRP version or what?

The device is now remain "unlocked" - is it ok or I need to lock it again?

You have mentioned to download a "Rom", what about it, it is only need if i want to continue to "root " the device?

Sorry for so much question.

I am so happy to see it comes alive again but really would like to understand the current status of it.

Thank again. aarsyl
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what the status of your device is right now. I was under the implication that you had no Rom on the device. Since you are trying to root for the first time, then yes, you are on the stock software that comes with the device. If you search your app drawer and find the SuperSU app, then you are already rooted, my friend. If it is not there, then search for SuperSU 1.94 in Google, and download the zip file. Then reboot into recovery and flash it.

In other news, I am happy that you got your device working, and I am more than happy to help. The only thing that I don't do is recommend roms. I encourage users to explore different roms for themelves.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
Well, sure I will continues to look up the information from the basic, but at the moment Would you please enlight me for the following 2 questions

1/ Should I uncheck or check the USB debugging tab under Developer options - it will be very good if you would like to explain a little on what it does, so I will have a more l\idea what it does when when do i need them.

2/ As i said, teh device is now unlocked, is it ok to leave it unlock or should i have it lock? - again if you would explain a little more on this that will be marvest.

cheers
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
I'm sorry for the long delay. I got locked out trying to log in after I changed my username twice, and it just got messy for me. At any rate....the SuperSU zip file is to be flashed through recovery. When you boot into recovery, select Install, then navigate through the device to find the folder that the file is located. Follow the screen directions to flash items.

USB Debugging needs to be checked for ADB to work, so.....yeah....leave it on.

You don't have to relock your device unless you have to bring it back to the store for repairs. It only stops you from making changes in the bootloader, such as flashing new recoveries, and I think that most fastboot commands might be blocked. I have never tried to use fastboot on a locked device, so I really don't know. Leaving the device unlocked doesn't make it vulnerable or anything, at least to my knowledge.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chanwt12000:
Thx for your advices AarSyl,

I have successfully root the device and get the Super user app running by following one of tutorial video.

For the first time, when I start at teh bootloader and conduct a "Recovery", it shows a dead robot again but without "no command". I have to redo the fastboot command in the command window with the TWRP recovery file once again. (but this time is very smooth no need to unplug cable that sorts of thing) then I get into the TWRP menu after "Recovery".
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AarSyl:
Great. I'm happy that it is working for you. A little tip...download Quick Boot from the Play Store. With one touch, you can power off, boot into the bootloader, boot into recovery, or reboot Android.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] marisa4755:
Set up Vario II yesterday, all appeared fine, installed all my 'must have' software and was ecstatic.

However, I discovered that despite having 'ticked all the right boxes' in options, a soft reset made all my texts (inbox and sent) vanish.

When I created a new folder in inbox to store read messages, and soft reset, this vanished too.

Does anyone have any ideas? Is this happening to anyone else?

Also, if I hard reset and then install a backup, will this re-install the problem?

Any ideas welcome.

Lost messages

I too have disappearing texts on my Tytn. It appears to be just sms messages that disappear and its very frustrating. Its possible it happens after a soft reset and if I havent opened the unread sms prior to reset - also I know its not for this topic but I have also found that my device freezes if I try and open my text messages whilst syncing with WMP. VERY FRUSTRATING.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] chrisnash:
Lost messages

Actually I have lots of syncing issues with Tytn. Better post a topic. Anyone know of any decent sync software. Activesync is crap!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Marc83:
how do you soft-reset? if you softreset using the stylus it won't write the txt messages and other settings to the memory. If you softreset using the on/off button it should write the messages to the memory. Hold the on/off button for a few seconds and press yes when the message appears on the screen!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] marisa4755:
Aha!

All of a sudden my text messages don't disappear, in fact, ever since I installed Wisbar lite task manager, which has a soft reset button in the task manager.

On the Vario, holding down the on/off button only closes the device.

So, in conclusion, I reckon that on this machine (didn't used to happen on my old 2003SE) if you use the stylus to reset, then you lose texts, if you use another method then you don't.

Let's hope that's it.
