Reposting as this was posted in wrong section:

Hi

I have been trying to upgrade from CM 10.1 (build 03212013 ) to Paranoid Android 4.4, since I see the new version has BLN support (I'd stuck with the old CM for so long due to this).

Anyways upon trying this I discovered I had to (always ran clear cache, and ran the T989 script super -wipe)

- update my modem to the latest t-mobile - upgraded to the latest which is needed - UVMC6

- was trying to install with CWM 5.8.x - but it would just 'hang' at "installing ZIP" further research indicates I need to upgrade CWM

- Upgraded to CWM 6.0.4.3 per more searching, tried erase flash, just hangs - further research indicates this CWM has a known issue

- used ODIN to goto TWRP 2.7 - flashed, and booted, tried numerous times hangs at "teamwin' screen when trying to boot into recovery

Ended up giving up and Odin flashing back CWM 5.8.1.3 and loading my old CM 10.1 build again

Anyone have any hints why this is so difficult for me?

Need some help if possible please!

thanks

Jonathan

Found work around

Just want to update

I managed to find a work around of sorts. I needed to restore my phone back to CWM 5, and to do that I needed to use ODIN to flash it.

After flashing CWM5 back to the phone, I was able to restore previous ROM (CM mod 10.x), and boot up. After that I used the rommanager to re-install CWM 6.0.4.3, and reboot the phone into recovery.

When in recovery I went to mountand storage, and formatted , /cache, /system and /data. After doing that I choose to install ZIP from SDcard, and selected the Parandoid Android 4.4.x I was trying before. This completed, and installed without any error messages.

Hopefully this helps someone else out.

Thanks,

Jonathan

I am hoping that someone out there can help me. My sgs i9000 does not charge when using the mains charger. It charges when plugged into a laptop is in the USB cable okay though. I have bought, both a new battery and a new charger, but the problem persists. Has anyone had or heard of this problem? Better still, does anyone have a solution?

I thank you all in advance.

Take ur phone to service centre
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idCyber:
Yeah, your USB port inside the phone is damaged, go to a service center with it to replace the damaged slot
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knuckles1978:
Thanked you by accident when I went to quote you there :)

It probably isn't his USB port on the phone if it's charging fine from a laptop with USB cable.

I'd be checking that the charger definitely works by charging another device with it, if you have one. The voltage pins on the phones socket are the same whether you're charging with a charger or plugging into a computers USB, so if one way wasn't working then nothing should be working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhedphuk:
Thank you.

The charger charges my wifes phone with no problems. The battery charges in her phone using the mains charger too, so not a battery related problem either.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knuckles1978:
Could just be the plug on the charger possibly, I've had that happen before. There are two little sprung prongs on one side of it. I've had well used chargers before that I've had to get a pair of pliers and pull them out a little..

The fact that it works on your wife's phone doesn't mean it can't be the plug on your charger. Could just be that your USB port is a tiny bit more worn than hers. Doesn't mean that your port is totally screwed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhedphuk:
I have tried three different chargers and none of them charge my phone. I'm very interested in your comment about the USB port being slightly more worn.

I am constantly flashing different Roms etc across using ums/ mtp so that does make sense. Also the USB cable that I use to charge my laptop is an old Nokia cable and the USB connector (phone end) is a little tighter.

Thanks.

My phone became a bit wet in the rains (started working after keeping it in rice) and since then even I am facing a similar issue... My auto rotate doesn't go off even after disabling it and my phone only charges even when its connected to the pc... Unable to use it for any sort of data transfer between the phone and the pc... Doesn't get into download mode without using the battery method and odin too doest recognize it... [MENTION=4891624]Drhedphuk[/MENTION] if you had some progress please do post here too...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drhedphuk:
Hi [MENTION=3990399]sbnaul[/MENTION] Unfortunately I haven't had much progress at all. My device connects with Odin & PC etc with no problem, it is just the charging issue using the mains charger. I have discovered that if I push in and hold the usb connector of the mains charger it will charge. Obviously though, none of us have the time to sit there and hold the phone for its charging process. If I have any further progress I will post here. Good Luck with your own problem, that must be a headache.

I have ATT in New York area so I get a good bit of LTE.

I never once had looked at this before, but since i was having some signal drop i just checked on it and noticed that my preferred selection would change without me doing anything. I flashed a new radio and seem to have resolved the drop issue, but now I don't know which setting I should be using.

Right now I have it set to GSM/WCDMA AUTO, but I am only showing an H for signal so I am not sure if this setting restricts LTE

Flashing stock (e.g. from Sammobile) will never trip your Knox, although you cannot flash a 4.3. JB firmware as downgrading is not possible.

Hi

I am going to root my G2 for the first time. its currently on stock jellybean.

I would like to know if I should root now on jelly bean and install a custom rom or upgrade to stock kitkat first and then root?

if I am going to a kitkat custom rom would it make more sense to upgrade to stock kit kat first or is it easier to root from jellybean?

What are the advantages/disadvantages of either?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJGREEN1980:
Hi

Can anyone advise on the above? I know I should be reading all the forums which I will but was just after a quick general answer so I know where to start from. I'm not new to rooting and flashing roms but I am new to the G2.

Thanks
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarioMoPho:
I would recommend updating to Kit Kat first then rooting using IOroot25. That way you will have the latest radio/modem stuff to use KK Roms
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aleasto:
Depends on the ROM. If the dev says you have to have Kitkat modem or other stuff from Kitkat, then update and root with ioroot25. If not, it will be a waste of time, so:

Download anything you need from the new ROM and put all in your phone storage (so that if you accidentally brick you still have files to flash in your SD), root, install recovery (I suggest TWRP) and from there flash your ROM!

Will this only turn on/off Bluetooth with an incoming call?

I want it to turn on/off Bluetooth for any situation when I stop/start something that needs it.

For example if BT is off, and I start ActiveSync on the XDA, BT starts automatically. But when I close AS, BT stays on.

I was hoping something like DKToday would help with this, but it only seems to work for calls.

try to use a taskmanager app, to see what is running and how much memory it uses.

Also install greenify, even if u dont have root, and set it to kill the apps that are not necessary to you.

Long story short the screen never turns on, theres a tiny bit of backlight though and apps are working in the background. I've tryd updates and so on, nothing fixed it.

So my final resort is to change hardware parts...

The thing that i think the problem is, is a faulty motherboard. Is there any way in particular that i can try to test and make sure that the screen really isnt the problem here?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Power + Volume Up buttons or the Reset button under the flaps, it will shot down, then power on the phone, do you see any image? (Sony logo, bootanimation)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gorgice:
nope, nothing. just a tiiiiny bit of backlight. phone boots up in the background though, you can hear apps opening and virations
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Then the LCD is dead, the backlight working but nothing else, this is 100% hardware failure.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
without a bespoke hardware testing kit you won't be able to test the parts, changing a part out would work but then you wouldn't know what to change out. could be a few things, loose flex cable, dead backlight, broken inverter (if phones even have them), Broken motherboard.

The list goes on m8, if you can MHL out of the device and go back to stock then I would do that and send it off for repair.

If thats at all possible.

Hello,

My LG Nexus 4 was never rooted or modified with any kind of mod or launcher.

Phone info : Nexus 4. Android 4.4.3 Build : KTU84L

Does anyone know a simple add on that allows waking up the phone with the volume rocker?

I'm not looking for an app as they drain battery life and probably won't work properly.

I've seen some mods for earlier versions but i have no idea how to match them to my phone or install them.

Root with the Wugsfresh toolkit, it's basically idiotproof :)

Then install the Xposed framework (search on XDA, it's a huge thread) and then download Gravitybox from inside Xposed. Install it by following the Xposed instructions, then have fun with all the customizations you didn't know you wanted but now can't live without!

Don't root like an idiot. Just unlock the bootloader:

Once you've gone ahead and installed a custom recovery (and rooted your phone) use the following link for a mod that saved my life and my phone.

This is not an xposed module but a zip file that you flash through the custom recovery. Works like a charm.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfinityFTW:
Hello!

I was on a KitKat AOSP ROM. I then tried flashing A KK TW ROM. It booted, but I had no mobile signal, so I flashed back to a TouchWiz 4.3 ROM. Earlier today, I read about a workaround of the 4.4.2 TW ROM, where you flash an earlier version, and then dirty-flash the new versin. When I flashed the earlier version, it did not boot, but I was able to enter recovery, so I flashed the new version over that one. Stuck on ''Samsung'' logo. I try to pull the battery, and press the key combination. The only thing I'm greeted with is ''Downloading, do not turn off target'', or something like that. No recovery. I need to know how to get my recovery back.

You must flash stock ROM via Odin :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
That "downloading" message you are talking about is the DOWNLOAD mode that you have entered which is good news. You can flash recovery via pc odin after putting the phone into download mode ( volume down +home+ power button).Get the .tar file from here , open odin on pc uncheck auto reboot on the far left corner, select PDA/AP tab and choose the above recovery file that you downloaded,connect phone to pc and wait for ID COM to turn blue which means a secure connection has been established between odin and your phone,then hit start and let the recovery flash.Once it says pass on the top left corner remove the usb cable from the pc and pull the battery out of your phone so that it can be turned off wait for few mins put it back in and manually enter into recovery mode using volume up +home+power button your recovery should load withing 5-10 seconds after the samsung note 2 logo.

the problem is they disapper - but only after my phone was in the lockscreen once and not instantly when i disable the alarm.

Same happens if u enable a alarm - it shows up the first time after the phone was in the lockscreen.

Hello, since some time now I'm experiencing a wierd wifi connection behavior:

When I connect over wifi to my accesspoint everything goes well. It connects right away.

Also when I open IE and go to any site. It does download and display the site normally. But that is where the problem begins. It does this only for the first request. After that, there is no communication over wifi possible anymore. I cannot click on a link or change to any other website anymore. I cannot download mail, even cannot Ping (with vxUtil).

Other scenario:

I connect, download my email, after it gets done downloading, again.. it does not work anymore, neighter IE, nor download email again.. it always keeps trying to connect but aborts after a minute or so.

To make it work again, I always have to disconnect, and connect again, it then works for another request. Then again disconnect- connect... and so on.

Kinda enoying!!

Another scenario:

vxUtil, make a ping and keep on pinging. Works fine until I interrupt the ping. When I then try to ping again, it only gets timeouts again.

The Wifi connection is well during all of this, no drops no anything. The reception is excellent... it doesn't matter if I'm right next to the AP or a little farther away.

I remember that I didn't have this problem with my original Qtek ROM, after I changed to the Dopod ROM, this appeared somehow. Now I just flashed that MobiWiz custom rom with AKU 2.3, hoping it would solve the problem. ... well, it didn't.

In my wireless Lan I use WEP encription with a 26char HEX key; auth: open (not shared key). Setup is with DHCP and static IP the same... tried both, no difference. I have two Linksys APs with the newest firmware on them. Doesn't work with neighter of them.

Well, I searched a long time for a solution, but didn't really know what to look for, there is many things that come up when I search for "wifi" or "connection" and "problem", so I'm sorry if already someone wrote about this, please just post me the toppic...

Thank you guys very much, hope someone can help me!

Found the Problem

OK, I guess I found the reason for the problem.

As I wrote, I have 2 Access Points, one acting as a Repeater. Well... I guess the Prophet didn't like his Packets to be repeated, might have gotten them twice (from the first and then from the second AP). Anyways, so as soon as I switched off the repeating one, it worked again.

Still... kinda wierd, because my Laptop doesn't have a problem with it.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] TDIPower:
having just had to set up my new network at home i was reading up on using a second unit as a repeater. It mentiond that you have to tell one of the access points (think it was the main unit) how many hops you have in the system. This is to prevent 'system loops' or something. Sorry im not massive on this sort of thing but sounds like your problem.

Mine is i set the system up, main puter, 3 laptops, xda mini s and xda2i. all worked, added mac filtering all fine, added WPA PSK with TKIP security. Main puter and 3 laptops work fine. Both the XDA's sit there saying network available or connecting. but they never connect.
