Hello all,

I've got a 2012 edition of the Amazon Kindle Fire HD (tate) which I love :) . Unfortunetly, while doing a bit of DIY modding, I was forced to resort to using my handy fastboot cable. I can boot the tablet into fastboot, but upon plugging in my normal USB cable, my laptop tells me that "the connected USB device has malfunctioned, and Windows doesn't recognize it." I posted a thread in my device forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2750416), and this was the reply:

My question is: is this something I can fix or replace myself, or am I better off saving for a new tablet? If at all possible, I'd like to try and fix it myself, as it's been a sturdy and reliable little 16 GB tablet, and it's been there through the good and the bad of the past couple of years.

Regard,

Alright there is few things I know: Deodex make costumizing better. Zipaling optimize these deodex. Odex is: (Filename).apk with odex file next to it so android can load faster.

What bother me the most is these 2 script that make system odex instead of deodex and claiming that its faster. In theory it should. It only apply for system app. Loading faster etc etc.

The 2 scripts im talking about: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2527268

and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2390162

I read enough post that deodex doesnt decrease or increase peformance. So odex doesnt do the same right?

So my purpose is to ask other or perferably a known developer if its increase peformance or its just placebo effect. If I missed out on a post anywhere on the internet just give me the link. We are human after all :).

For me its just doenst feel faster or snappier but hell i could be wrong.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
It is supposed to have less overhead due to the odex file kind of being like cache when loading the app thus making it slightly faster to boot and a little faster to open it. However, with the power of most modern phones, it's so negligible that it's not noticeable in my experience and definitely not worth losing the ability to customize the apps easier.

HTC ONE X Evita

I finally got to the point that I need to boot into recovery in order to root my phone. I am using Hasoon2000's all in one kit.

The issue that I am having is that I believe that I installed the CWM 5.8.2.7 Touch, then whether I use the program to boot in recovery or do it via that power button, it gives the red legal disclaimer text, then boots up the phone normally.... No recovery screen or anything. Just the regular phone...

I'm not sure why it's doing this at all and I've google quite a bit and have tried multiple things.

I've tried flashing it and then clearing the cache then booting to recovery same issue.

Any one know what's going on? I've seemingly hit a wall.

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Its most likely pilot error. There is actually

no button combo that boots directly into recovery

. The button combo (power + vol down) boot into bootloader, then you pick recovery from there. And bootloader must be intact, or the screen would not even come on (and you would be in really big trouble, then!).

My guess is when doing the button combo, you either start pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early. Try this:

With phone powered up, hold down power button and vol down at the same time. Keep holding for 10 seconds or so until the phone reboots. Once the screen goes black and the phone starts to reboot, you can let go of the power button but

DO NOT

let go of the vol down button until the bootloader screen comes up.

Now, if you select recovery from the bootloader screen, and don't go into recovery, you may have an additional problem (and this might be why you can't boot into recovery using the toolkit - also you can try to boot into recovery using fastboot). In which case you can try to erase cache, then flash recovery again in fastboot. The fastboot commands are in topic 2 of timmaaa's beginner guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2593382

I would also encourage ditching the toolkit and doing things manually, as the toolkit can cause as many problems as it solves. And all the toolkit is doing is basically entering fastboot/adb commands for you, that you should learn how to do, anyway.

Have you unlocked your Bootloader ??

Post your bootloader details.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Warborn304:
I have unlocked my bootloader. My bootloader screen says

EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.14.0000

RADIO-0.24P.32.09.06

OpenDSP-v34.1.0.45.1219

eMMC-boot

Nov 26 2012,18:37:14:-1

Below that is the IMEI SN and MB.

From my understanding in order to root my phone I unlock the bootloader, then I have to boot into recovery, then flash the root onto the phone.

how ever,

That's my exact problem, flashing any recovery auto/manual, clearing ect. Installs the recovery. Then when I try to boot into recovery it acts as if it will, then just boots the phone OS regularly. Skipping the recovery...

Also note I did manually try to install a recovery. Off of timmaaa's guide I believe. (recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.4-endeavouru)

Edit: I did try the one touch root... the ONXR one touch root, and it fails and doesn't work.

I tried to manually flashed endeavouru for my evita. Should I have done another recovery instead?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yes, you should have flashed the right recovery for your phone. You have the Evita, not the Endeavoru.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You didn't get the recovery from timmaaa's guide. Its the recovery for the wrong phone. ENDEAVORU is the quad core One X. You have the dual core EVITA.

Also, there is no one click root solution for the EVITA. My advice is to be careful about applying mods that are not intended for out phone, and not found on this XDA device section. Not following this advice is a great way to brick the device.

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 AM ----------

To clarify and sum up, you really have 2 problems:

1) You flashed the wrong recovery. Clear cache and flash the right recovery. Reboot into recovery using fastboot, or from hboot menu should then get you into recovery.

2) As long as the screen comes on, the button combo (as I described previously) will virtually

always

get you into bootloader. If it doesn't, you are doing it wrong. There may be a rare occurrence of your volume rocker actually being broken, but that is rare.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Warborn304:
I'll be working on my phone again today, it's pretty apparent now that I was installing the wrong recovery. Thank you guys for the help. Luckily I didn't brick my phone either.

Is there a way to change the scroll wheen so it smoothly screen down the screen in opera for instance? At the moment scolling takes so long that I: find it better to use the stylus on teh scroll bar and drag the window down.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Moskus:

However, you should be aware that the wheel is only "connected" to the up and down buttons. It's up to the software to make it usefull...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Bobik-s:
I also find it very handy. Wheel (up-down and press) and OK button right above it gives perfect control while reading, serfing Internet and even reading e-mails, etc. Several days and you'll be wondering how you've managed to live without it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] goestoeleven:
The scroll wheel and the left OK button together make a wonderful one-handed pair for navigating the Today Screen.

On the Today Screen, pressing the OK button opens the Start Menu, and then you can navigate/select using the wheel.

Fantastic!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] iridaki:
Hello all!

I decided to start this thread to share my recent experience with the Samsung service centre.

I live in the UK and last November I got a P600 16GB Note 10.1 2014. I was using it mainly for taking notes at university with Lecture Notes and for keeping the girl I babysit busy with a couple of games. During one of those babysitting sessions, the tablet fell on the floor. When I picked it up the screen had two dark patches on the left side but it was still working fine. I decided to reboot and unfortunately the screen never came on again. I could still hear the touch sounds, so I know the digitiser was intact, but the screen was not lit up. Furthermore, one of the hinges of the back cover seemed to have broken, as there was a visible gap between the bezel and the cover.

Firmware-wise, the phone was rooted, with the KNOX flag tripped, running a Colombian 4.4.2 firmware. Even the build.prop was modified to show the tablet as a Note Pro in order to get the fancy recent apps screen.

At this point, you may all think that I was screwed in terms of warranty, right? Well, those were my thoughts exactly! Nevertheless, I decided to send it to the service centre, as, for free or not, I wanted it fixed. I filed the service request online and only mentioned that I saw the dark spots and that the screen stopped lighting up. I did not mention the fall nor the rooting of course, although I was fairly certain that evidence of both was hard to miss.

To my great surprise, the tablet was fixed completely free of charge and returned to me by mail 17 days later! :)

Let the record show that I do not mean to say that rooting and tripping KNOX does not void your warranty. It just didn't in my case. And maybe, just maybe, each service centre have their own way of handling things like these.

Cheers!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
There are quite a few posts across the various Samsung forums like yours where warranty repairs were provided on rooted KNOX tripped devices. In fact, I've never seen a post where Samsung denied warranty coverage for a "non-official" device when the problem itself was unrelated (EG: bad headphone jack, dead display). You lucked out because dropping your tablet and causing it to malfunction is pretty clearly not a warranty covered repair.

Here's Samsung's official definition of what the KNOX warranty bit is for and how it works. That it universally and completely voids a device's warranty when tripped is mostly XDA folklore.

By Peng Ning, VP, Samsung Enterprise Security Group, on Wed, 12/04/2013

When it comes to rooting, there have been some questions regarding Samsung’s KNOX-enabled devices and if they can, or should, be rooted at all. We do not recommend that you root your device, since it can cause software problems, cause your device to operate improperly (for example, overheat), and as a result void your warranty.

To further illustrate how this works, the “KNOX Warranty Void” bit (or simply KNOX bit) is used to detect if a non-KNOX kernel has been loaded on the device. It is a one-time programmable bit in e-fuse, which can only be turned from “0” to “1” (i.e. burned). If a non-KNOX boot loader or kernel has been put on the device, KNOX can no longer guarantee the security of the KNOX container. As a result, this KNOX bit will be burned to “1”, indicating that this device can no longer use the KNOX container service.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvar105:
Hey guys,

So I got a real doozy here...

I flashed my Verizon Note 2 (SCH-I605) to the SOKP Rom from a Jedi X Rom (v13 I believe). After the flash, I noticed my network was not working. Eventually I found out that the device was registering as a GT-7105. Not sure what went wrong, as the rom was flashed with no errors. I also ensured that my recovery was on the appropriate version (TWRP 2.6.3.3 in this case) and I also did a factory reset. To try and rectify the issue I wiped the phone and tried various other roms. In every one of those cases I found that the phone was constantly roaming. I had checked my network mode and tried switching between Global and LTE/CDMA which did nothing. Being completely out of options, I just installed to a stock rom through Odin (VRAMC3 4.1.2) and let it update via Wifi to 4.3 and still nothing. (I am well aware of the Knox security feature and will address this in a moment)

Here are the different ways I tried to diagnose the issue after this that led nowhere:

1. Made contact with a Tier-2 specialist from Verizon that tried various diagnostic methods and found that my phone was simply not registering on the Verizon network, or ANY other network for that matter.

2. I went to a Verizon store and got my SIM card replaced.

3. I even went to a repair shop to see if the phone possibly had a faulty connection.

I have already verified that the IMEI is correct based on the sticker behind the battery. The PRL is on 15310. The very last thing I tried was entering "getprop" inside a terminal. I'm taking a guess here, but I noticed my ril.serialnumber was all 0s. Could this be the problem? If there's anymore information someone needs, I'll be happy to post it up. Just hoping I can get a little direction here. If I need to root my phone again to try something, I am more than willing to. My phone is out of warranty and not insured, I'm not really concerned about the Knox warranty trigger unless it will render my phone completely unusable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If updating the Profile and PRL on a stock based rom doesn't get it back, then you might have corrupted your EFS partition. I don't suppose you used TWRP to back up the EFS partition when you did a nandroid?

FYI: Doesn't matter what the phone is listed as (n7105) for connecting to the network. It's just a build.prop edit away from saying whatever you want it to.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvar105:
Unfortunately, I did not back up the EFS partition. I'm guessing I should try and restore this somehow?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Can't restore what wasn't backed up. The efs is unique to your phone. In some cases you can use another part of another phone's efs partition, but not always and is gonna be a huge hassle either way. But yea, I think you're in a pretty tricky situation. I was reading on another forum that the serial number being 0 shouldn't cause this issue though, so not really sure what to think. Usually when this sort of thing happens, the IMEI gets messed up too. Updating Profile and PRL didn't help?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvar105:
I guess that'll be the next step for me. I didn't want to go through the hassle without making sure. Please send me the links on how to do this if they are available.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
I don't have a Note 2 in front of me, but generally it should be in Settings / About Phone / Update or Software Update and for most Samsung CDMA phones, the Profile and PRL options are in or around there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvar105:
Yeah, it's actually in the Status section. It does not allow me to edit anything in this area. I don't see anything that says Profile.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Hmm I guess VZW decided you don't need to have access to those functions. Weird. Sorry man, I dunno what to tell you at this stage.

Edit: Found this -

"The only acceptable way to update it on LTE phones is to take the SIM out, boot the phone back up, let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes, power off, reinsert SIM, reboot phone. That's the only one I know of, there may be other ways to do it but that is the easiest."

Not sure if it will help, but certainly isn't going to make it any worse. What baseband version do you have installed?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarongillion63:
First thing you need to do is write down your IMEI number. You do NOT want to lose that. Seriously, write it down with a pen. Also your serial number and anything else you find in the EFS partition you might need that's specific to your phone. THEN: at this point it sounds like you'll have to find someone's EFS partition. I've seen it around on XDA multiple times as I've gone through threads similar to this one. Once you find an SCH-i605 efs you'll have to flash/replace/edit yours somehow, try editing your own first to match the same values as your peer's. Don't replace personal information tho. If you end up replacing it you'll have to go in and re-enter your own IMEI number somehow. I am not an expert on how you can do this, but stated here is/would be the process.

Say thanks if I was of help,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvar105:
I tried this and still no luck. My baseband is I605VRUAND3.
