[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
These are the steps that I've used and have never had any problems with drivers. My brother had the same problem that your having a while back and these steps cleared up his driver problems. Maybe it's worth a shot.

First of all I NEVER let windows automatically install drivers except for a very short time period after a clean install of windows. It makes life easier if windows doesn't jump the gun and try to install what it thinks will work. I always get drivers directly from the manufacturer. After you stop windows from trying to do it's automatic driver install thing plug in your N7 to your computer and open device manager (I usually just type dev in the start search box of W7), find your device, right click and choose Uninstall, check the box for Delete the driver software for this device. When it finishes doing that reboot your computer and unplug your N7. Once your computer has completely booted back up plug in your N7 and open the device manager again. Find your N7 again, right click Update driver software then choose Browse my computer. Find your folder (including the subfolders) with the drivers and let it install, once it finishes unplug your N7 for a few seconds then plug it back in and hopefully it should be all good. If your want it I have a copy of the usb drivers at dropbox from my recently updated sdk install. I would just extract the folder and point the install to the whole folder, if you included subfolders at the install it will find what it needs inside the folder. Make sure you authorize your computer with usb debugging. Good luck! ; )

Steps to fix your problem.

Step 1: Search and Read through the Viper Rom thread to see if anyone else has or is having the problem similar to your and if a fix has been posted.

Step 2: if it has not been mentioned in the roms thread then post in the thread rather than taking up space in the Q&A section that could be saved by searching.

Step 3: Reflash the Rom if you cannot find a solution in the Viper thread. This will most likely be your best bet, but try steps one and two first.

Settings > Apps > find the viper apps and clear the caches etc. reboot and try again. If no good just dirty flash the ROM over again and you'll not lose any settings. - Check for ROM updates also. Pretty sure 1.8.1 is out.

The screen on my xda exec stopped responding to taps. It seems that the touch screen ability is gone. I can use the keyboard fine and I've done a hard reset. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] pusky:
I had the same problem, send it for repair. And the same problem reappeared 2 weeks later.

So I tried to find out what the problem was and thanks to this post I solved the problem;

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=979487&postcount=10

It's not really that weird: If some dust, or something equally small gets between the screen and the plastic frame, it can put enough pressure on the screen, and so the touch screen takes it as a constant (or intermitent) input, invalidating any other action on the rest of the screen.

And this is exactly what happens, try to clean with a thin paper between the plastic frame and the screen.

It solved all my problems, now every once in a while I get the problem and once cleaned it works again perfectly. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] maldita:
Thanks. I'll try that. Fingers crossed!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] maldita:
The cleaning did not cure it. Took it to a repair shop. They said the LCD and touch screen are fine. When he tinkered with the flex cable (disconnect and reconnect), it will work for a few minutes and stop. Does anybody know where I can get this specific part? Is it really the cause of the problem?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] shortydoggg:
You did not try to flash all 4 files did you, because the BL file will always fail? You only flash 3, the AP, CP, and CSC files.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Greycloak42:
Yeah, leave out the BL and everything else will flash fine.

You guys are awesome! I've tried flashing individual things at once, AP over and over again with different mixes but didn't know about BL part always failing. It currently seems like its doing a full flash so im sure it will work!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adbyerly:
I'm debating whether I should get the n900a or n900t. I want to root, which seems possible on the n900a with towelroot, but it would be nice to have the unlocked boot loader of the t mobile variant. However, I will be using the phone on ATT. If I buy a n900t from swappa, how easy is it to SIM unlock it for use on ATT? Would you buy the n900a or n900t of you wanted a rooted device to use on ATT? Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
I will be buying all my phones from t-mobile or any other reputable source to use my unlocked bootloader phones on att. My buddy and I have att service, mine is unlocked custom ROM ran, and it just outperforms in battery, customization, and I have no bugs compared to his. Frankly though, it is preference. Do you like to run custom, or do you want to do what att tells you to?

Sent from the dirty flashed note 3!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adbyerly:
Well I'm definitely not an ATT fanboy, but currently using cricket because att has the best GSM service around here. I'm using a Moto G with xposed/gravity box, along with nova launcher. So I think I would be happy with a rooted n900a, as long as I can freeze the bloatware and get my beloved pie controls. So I'd rather not have to spend the extra bucks for the n900t (buying used... ~$50-100 difference on Swappa), but I also don't want to regret being stuck with the locked boot loader...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
I hear you. I run pretty minimal with the exception of tweaks. Use ADW launcher, uninstall all bloat ware, then make my phone look pretty. But the choice if kernels, init.d scripts, and being able to free up about 40% of the storage speaks volumes to me. Being able to run cm, aosp you get even more storage back.

I started with t mobile service and was happy while in city limits, but had to switch to att due to travels outside. They are bigger than Verizon where I live. Cricket has some good plans, but aren't you forced to purchase the phone outright? If this is the case, and you want options, might as will go with the one that allows for greater use.

The phone price is about the same, just one allows you to do more with it. Just a quick online search indicates that att full price phone is $764.99, and the t mobile variant is only $717.60.

Sent from the dirty flashed note 3!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] adbyerly:
No you can BYOP to Cricket, so I will be purchasing used. I can get the n900a on Swappa for ~$390 while the n900t runs ~$460. So I'm thinking if I will be happy with root getting me the Nova Launcher/Pie control/Adaway/app freeze experience that I am used to then there's not a big incentive to spend the extra money to be able to run custom ROMS that I currently do without anyway. However running a slimmer ROM and freeing up storage space is tempting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] noobtoob:
I hear you. Good luck with your search.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] andrewnelson23:
I unlocked my n900t a couple weeks ag to use on straight talk on att towers. Couldn't unlock it without cellunlocker. So I did and it's unlocked now. Be careful buying off swappa and make sure you check that the imei doesn't have a payment still on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] speedy1979:
If you can ask the seller to provide proof they paid off the E.I.P., (equipment installment plan). That's what I did when I sold my At&t Galaxy note 3 (n900a). Actually I provided proof of payment in the description. So that potential buyers wouldn't have to request proof.

Of course that won't work if your ebay/swappa seller is a third party reseller.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] JetstreamDragon:
Good evening!

I'm having an issue with Huawei Mediapad7 Youth 2. Android version is 4.3.

No browser installed is able to play streams and according to google play, adobe flash player is not compatible, or at least the available versions... However, I can use youtube and watch its videos with no problem, but I guess that can be explained by the youtube app being present in the tablet.

It's a tablet that was part of my phone service package, so it comes with pre-installed apps and company-customized interface.

It simply doesn't even show a player on screen.

Is this an issue I can be able to fix? What can I do?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CC268:
Well I think I am going to loose my root access and update to the newest firmware and radios from Verizon. I don't do much with rooting and custom ROM's, etc anymore and I figure it is time to move onto the newest stuff. What is the best way to do this?

Currently I am on MDK stock firmware, but rooted and TWRP recovery.

Thanks guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zeb carter:
Personally, I'd say don't do it. an MDK phone is becoming a rare commodity. You could put a custom rom on there that gives you the latest functionality of the newer releases without the bloat that comes from an OTA. Not all roms are full of fancy bells and whistles. I run Danvdh's GPE rom wich is pretty much just plain vanilla AOSP. I am running a newer radio (NC2) but other than ththe rom and radio, it's nothing fancy.

Hang on to the MDK as long as you can.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CC268:
Honestly man...I always run into a problem at some point with custom ROM's....I just want a stock ROM that I would see if I updated to the newest firmware. I am on the oldest radio as well. Idk...just tired of the custom ROM stuff I guess...always stuff that doesn't work, etc...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zeb carter:
Danvdh puts a lot of work into his ports of the GPE roms and because it is a GPE rom, it is designed for our phones. For me, it is the ultimate stock rom with no additional carrier or OEM bloat. Just fully functioning Android and now at 4.4.4. You can't get much newer than that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] CC268:
Really don't want an AOSP ROM....

[HTC Amaze 4G] Stephen588:
I was using 4EXT to flash CM 10 onto my phone. Rooted, backup up everything with Titanium. Bootloader is unlocked, S-on because I don't have a Unbuntu machine.

I made a backup of the stock rom but also have a downloaded copy just in case. Reflash seemed to go fine however on reboot the Cyanogenmod logo just sits there and spins. After 15 minutes, I removed the battery and tried to reboot again with the same results.

I don't know what I did wrong but it looks like I can't even restore the original rom now from within 4ext. Says there are no backups. When I try to install from sdcard, 4ext only sees the /4ext directory and no zip files inside it.

I do have ADB/Fastboot and can connect to the phone. I pushed the original rom into the /4ext directory but 4ext still does not see a zip file from recovery.

I'm stumped as to how to even get the original rom back into the phone now.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rdar_93:
This is a common problem most people on here have with this device because HTC is much more complex than other devices by requiring S-OFF and SuperCID and Unlocked bootloader etc.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evar678:
Hey, so I recently decided to flash a new rom. So, i booted into recovery, wiped system / davlik / cache, and flashed a new rom. Pretty standard stuff.

However, I noticed that for some reason or another it failed to flash (code 7 or something; it was one of the nightly roms for otter)

So I decided to look around and I found this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2671619

I followed instructions; Flashed the bootloader, and rebooted. However, I noticed that the kindle didn't boot back into recovery (despite me selecting it.), or, for that matter, turn back on automatically at all

No problem, right? I power on my kindle and the power menu thingy shows up at the bottom. I notice the interface is a lot more simplistic; I assumed simply because I didn't have a rom. I scroll down to recovery and the kindle powers off. That's it. I wait for it to power back on and happily boot into recovery, but it turns out it simply powered off. I power back on and retry, same result.

I then turn to kindle fire utility to hopefully help me out; however, my pc can't detect my kindle now, and the drivers won't install.

So I'm stumped. Can anybody here please help me with this issue? Anything would be greatly appreciated.
