What ever for? [Imgur link, SFW; shows my battery stats this morning]

If I can get 20 hours to 30%, I can probably get 30 hours on a full charge. But I put my phone on the charger when I go to sleep. If I didn't, I'd be shooting for a 40 hour drain. That's kind of high expectations for a stock battery. Why not just charge it every time you go to bed?

I'm running the latest CleanROM in Dalvik mode, whatever kernel comes with it and zero battery saving apps. I do have the option ticked as you can see at the link where it cuts off your data when the screen is off (like Deep Sleep Battery Saver, and others). But the battery saver itself is off.
[XDA Assist] Bear Claw:
Dear xda community,

I have searched wide and far through the forums but have not found the perfect solution to my problem:

I have an non-rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 stuck in boot after my stock FM radio app crashed. Boot stops in the flashing logo and won't go on from there.

Cache wipe in recovery mode doesn't help, but I do not want to factory reset without any attempt to save personal data from the internal memory.

I have tried to access my phone through adb, but cannot use the pull command to get anything off (e.g. /sdcard/, where it just tells me that 0 files have been found and 0 transferred).

Kies won't connect either.

Some forums suggest to root and flash a custom rom, but this process seems a) to involve factory reset, b) seems risky without access to anything above recovery mode, or c) seems risky because I don't know my exact kernel version to pick.

All I can get via "adb shell cat /proc/version" is this:

Linux version 3.0.31-889555 (dpi@DELL228) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #3 SMP PREE

MPT Thu Jan 31 14:48:54 KST 2013

I am a bit unsure whether the kernels and roms available would fit because I had to send the device in earlier last year on guarantee and got it back with a firmware jellybean update, so it's not the originial stock kernel.

I found the exact same /proc/version output in this thread (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/help/help-cf-root-galaxy-s2-tanks-t2139040) , where they recommended to use PhilZ Touch v4.22 + new XWLSD.

I am unsure if this would be a good solution for me as well even though I don't know my build number or baseband version.

Is there a way to find these out via adv? are they important? Will I brick my phone if I try to install this kernel without knowing more?

Any help very much appreciated!
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi there!!

You will need to ask for alternatives to wiping in your device section........but as there are many S2 variants, I'll need to know your model to point you in the right direction. ;)

---------- Post added at 07:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

And yes, without knowing what exact device you have, flashing anything is a gamble. Don't. ?

---------- Post added at 07:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

Also, rooting and flashing ROMs won't wipe your internal SD. But all apps and data will get wiped if you flash properly. A factory reset won't delete your Internal SD if done through a custom recovery. Unless you set it to.

But again, need a model to help further. :)

Thanks, I have a Samsung Galaxy GT-I9100, no specific carrier.

Hi,it all started after i flashed TWRP in my HTC sensation xe(i had 4EXT recovery),then i wanted to flash a new rom but something happened and my htc freezed and then i pulled out the battery and inserted it,i turned it On but then it couldn't mount the system,cache,data.One of my friends managed to flash again the 4EXT recovery and told me that my partitions are corrupted.I tried some metjods with adb but nothing happened,

</tmp/mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -O ^huge_file,^dir_nlink,^ext_attr,^resize_inode,^ext ra_isize -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p37> but it says <no such file or directory>

and also tried this <parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkfs ext2> but it says <can't have overlapping partitions>
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
do you have access to the bootloader/recovery?
[HTC Sensation] mx568549060@gmail.com:
I have the same problem with you,,,I have not fix it at all,,,maybe we can ask [MENTION=3275672]shantur[/MENTION] for help,,,

which rom and the TWRP version do you use???
[HTC Sensation] noutsos:
i can access my 4est recovery but i dont have a rom,after flashing one my phone stucks in the logo
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
are you on S-ON?

post your bootloader details
[HTC Sensation] noutsos:
i am S OFF

firmware 3.33

hboot 1.27.1100

radio 11.24A.3504.31_M
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
ok probably you need to update 4ext version to the latest

also redownload the rom

by the way which rom did you try to flash?
[HTC Sensation] noutsos:
i tried to flash viperS 5.1.0

i tried to flash the stock,when i do factory reset it says "E:formate_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p24"

and then i reboot and stucks in htc logo
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
use the option format all partitions except sdcard from 4ext

then reflash the rom

which version of 4ext do you have?
[HTC Sensation] noutsos:
version 1.0.0.5 RC5

but the same thing occurs,in system is blk0p22,in data number23,in cache number24

when i try to flash custo rom it says installation aborted
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
here is the latest version of 4ext

http://www.4shared.com/zip/WnSyLWMaba/4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1006_RC3_.html

extract the recovery.img and flash it via fastboot command

but probably your emmc is corrupted unfortunately:(

by the way did you try a ruu.exe?
[HTC Sensation] noutsos:
tried ruu exe but nth happened,cant find the device,and cant fastboot
[HTC Sensation] Majellico:
How does fastboot not work? Does usb not connect at all?
[HTC Sensation] culler:
Hey guys, any news about fixing bug in TWRP which caused corrupting partitions and bricking phones?
[HTC Sensation] MatesCZ:
Hi guys,

I have the same issue as OP, however only the /data won't get mounted. My phone got stuck while doing wipe of the data partition in TWRP 2.6.3.0 (it didn't freeze, but it was taking over 40 minutes already), so I had to take the battery out and put it back in.

First, I tried using TWRP 2.6.3.0 to perform the wipe again, but I got

E:Unable to mount '/data'

I got the same error when I tried to install any ROM, so the installation got aborted.

Then I flashed 4EXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.6 RC3 through fastboot and did Format all partitions (except sdcard). The format went fine with no errors, however when I tried to flash any ROM (I tried CyanogenMod 11 with 3.0.16 kernel by sultanxda and Slimkat specifically), I get:

Installing update...
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/Slim-pyramid-4.4.4.build.7.8-WEEKLY-6262.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Same happens with the CM11 ROM. I also tried performing the full format with 4EXT recovery, then flashing the ROMs with TWRP. Same problem as before, Unable to mount '/data'.

Here is my bootloader info:

S-OFF

Firmware 3.33

HBOOT 1.27.1100

Radio 11.24A.3504.31_M

I am pretty much desperate at this point. Is there any way or chance of fixing my partitions? :( I haven't tried fixing it using parted, because I was unable to find a good howto for Sensation. I would be happy for any advice.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i think something is wrong with the rom zip or with sdcard

try to redownload the rom and flash it again with 4ext recovery

or try to flash a different rom
[HTC Sensation] MatesCZ:
Here is what I did:

- Formatted the SD card

- Put CM11, Slimkat and ViperS/C2 5.2.1 on it

- Checked MD5/SHA1 sums for each of them

- Went to 4EXT, performed full format

- Tried to flash Slimkat first, same result as before:

Installing update...
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/Slim-pyramid-4.4.4.build.7.8-WEEKLY-6262.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted.

- Tried to flash ViperS, the installer went through fine, no errors, however, after exiting the installer, 4EXT recovery window was showing:

Starting AROMA Installer version 2.70RC2

E:Error in /sdcard/ViperSC2_5.2.1.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.

Tried to reboot anyway, but phone is stuck on the Sensation logo :(
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
in both cases the issue is the sdcard as i see

i suggest to format your sdcard

backup first whatever you need

or if you have a different sdcard try to flash the rom with that one
[HTC Sensation] MatesCZ:
As I mentioned, I did format the SD card before trying.

Also today I tried with different, definitely working SD card (also formatted before trying) - same results as mentioned before. Doesn't seem to be SD card-related.

I also tried flashing stock ROM from RUU by extracting the rom.zip and renaming it to P58IMG.zip - the process gets stuck at

[6] USERDATA -Updating

forever. This consequently locked my bootloader, but I was able to unlock it again using fastboot.

I managed to retrieve log from 4EXT, and this is what it says during format of everything:

All internal partitions have been formatted.

since they are just files / directories.

Your sdcard(s) weren't touched
no worries.

These lines in particular are most likely related to the problem
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
yeah you are right

some partitions are broken probably from TWRP because a lot of users faced issues similar with yours

someone posted a solution few days ago how to boot a rom from sdcard

he had also broken partitions in internal memory caused from TWRP and he managed to boot a rom from sdcard

he created two partitions

one to be recognized as /data and one to be recognized as /system and mounted them successfully(if i remember well)

but i can't find that post

if i find it i will come with edit
[HTC Sensation] rmann:
Yes, I managed to boot my sensation from SD card by moving both /system and /data partition using a patched boot.img and modified rom install script...

Awesome, just tried it and it works now :D The only problem I have now is the wifi refuses to turn on for some reason...but hey, I basically have a working Sensation again, so thanks a lot! Shame there isn't something universal that could make it work for (almost) any ROM.
[HTC Sensation] rmann:
Glad that it worked. For me the WiFi works as well.

Can you share the boot log, which will have info on why WiFi is failing.

I'm not exactly sure what is considered boot log, but here is my kmsg if that's it.

I have compared it to mine and can't find any suttle differences. You might want to try re-installing...

BTW, I am now trying to install Slimkat.. will share the scripts if mine boots ok.

Already tried reformating and reinstalling twice, still the same. That would be nice, different ROM might help :)

I also have this problem regarding internal sdcard partition getting corrupted. Somehow I am able to resolve the unable to mount /data issue and all partitions are readable perfectly in the 4ext recovery. I can flash custom roms and install them fine in the recovery but the result is always bootloop. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
if you are on S-ON just flash the boot.img of the rom via fastboot

otherwise if you have 4ext recovery enable smartflash exactly before flashing the rom
[HTC Sensation] razor26:
My Sensation is on S-off. I cannot try the smartflash because I already resort to use my external sdcard as /data and successfully boot CM12, I'm in fear of messing my phone again. However, I wish there will be a fix soon.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugodefcon:
would it be possible to use the new launcher that comes included in the 4.4.2 update.

have a xt925 and it hasnt been as easy updating as for you guy using the xt926.

i would like to use the new stock launcher.

gotta love that circles widget.

would it be possible to use it on my xt925?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydr0id:
You can't use the circle widgets on a custom rom nor in a third parth launcher. About Motorola's stock launcher, I'm not so sure it's even possible to do what you want. I believe it cannot be done.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugodefcon:
I know this can be done because i remmember long ago, i think when 4.2.2 was new on this phone someone posted a way to have the circle widget. It was importing the stock launcher.

I want to know if anyone on official kk would be kond enogh to privide me with an apk or zip file.

Just reallg like those circle widgets.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydr0id:
Well, at least I tried to port the circles widget to CM11 M7 but it was impossible, so I'm skeptic that will ever work again, unless of course, you use the KK stock launcher.

[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
So my wife's motox decided to stop connecting to my home wifi/cable modem. My phone (LG G2) as well as all laptops/tablets connect fine. My G2 can see about 8 nearby networks, the MotoX always sees my neighbors network and occasionally a 2nd or 3rd but that's about it. If my home network finally shows up I enter the password and it immediately switches to "Out of range" and shows as a Saved network. I enabled the hotspot on my phone and the MotoX still didn't show the hotspot. Here are the things I've tried so far:

- Forget network and readd it if/when it finally shows up as a visible network.

- Cleared cache from recovery

- Rebooted

- Toggling airplane mode

- Disable just data

- Power cycled cable modem. Also Hard reset it and set the network back up.

- Disable wifi optimization, notify when open network is available, as well as the always allow scanning.

- Switched from auto to 2.4 Ghz only.

- Switched between multiple channels on router.

The MotoX is the Canadian version, 4.4.2 stock, unrooted. Router is an awesome Hitron piece of crap but it's been working perfectly fine for months.

Short of doing a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
You have already tried everything that I would suggest, short of a factory reset. If you do factory reset, please let us know if it resolves your issue. Since you are not rooted, I'm confused as to how this could happen :/

Good Luck
[Moto X Q&A] jithudigitised:
I am assuming you have already unchecked the "avoid poor connections" option too in the wifi settings.
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
It was already unchecked so I didn't touch it.
[Moto X Q&A] waiflih:
Some routers can't handle certain number of conectinons, try rebooting your router
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
The router is built in with the cable modem which I've already rebooted as well as reset completely. Also with the phone only able to see a couple of networks at a time when there should be 8 - 10 visible at any time I think the phone is the problem. I just can't figure out what happened.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
A few users have randomly had issues with WiFi, and their issues were only resolved by flashing the entire stock SBF as per the "Return to Stock" thread.

If a factory reset does not resolve your issue, you may consider SBFing back to stock. Since you will be flashing the stock rom (with matching CID), this is possible even with a locked bootloader.

Good Luck
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
I saw some posts about the SBF thing but wasn't sure if that applied to an unrooted / locked device or not. Thanks for the info.
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
An update for anyone looking for one. Her phone stated working fine yesterday on its own. It picked up and connected to our home network on its own and it can see all of the nearby networks like mine does.

Neither of us have done anything to it yet. Haven't touched the router or her phone since I first posted the problem.

Sorry I don't have an actual solution for you.
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
Ok so wifi decided to crap out again. This time I did a full wipe (internal storage included) and now wifi doesn't even turn on. It flips to ON for half a second then immediately back to off. Bluetooth does the same thing. I've called my provider (Rogers) and they're sending me another one.

Considering the wifi and bluetooth are on the same chip I guess the whole chip is toast or loose or something. Either way its well beyond a software fix.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
You did a full wipe, but did you actually SBF back to stock? As I had commented previously, ONLY a full SBF back to stock can repair a corrupted filesystem. A "Full wipe" just erases cache and userdata.

SBFing actually REPLACES all the partitions. If you haven't tried, you can't say for certain that it is well beyond a software fix. It could have simply been a corrupt file...

Good Luck
[Moto X Q&A] pqee:
If it was my phone I would have tried a SBF but considering it's my wife's she's a big more hesitant to let me and if they're sending us a new one, why bother? :)

My Chinese phone has a problem like that (can't flash through adb and recovery gave errors) I formatted it using the flash tool I had for that phone and than flashed the ROM I needed I don't know why Motorola hasn't provided any flash tool with this phone.
