[General Questions and Answers] If it's a potato...:
I'm sure that there is a simple fix for this but whenever I boot my phone into fastboot either in ADB or manually, my phone freezes.

I've checked all the variables before asking such as making sure that all the drivers are installed.

When I go to device manager, it tells me that the latest drivers are already installed...

I assigned the correct path to the ADB and fastboot location but still nothing...

This is basically what happens:

Open adb location and open command window here.

Type adb to see if it's working (it does)

-adb devices (device IS listed)

-adb reboot bootloader (phone boots into fastboot and shows; "=> fastboot mode.../" or something like that

-fastboot (to see if it's working and it DOES)

Then from there, I can't do anything as my phone seems to freeze.

No fastboot <command> will work.

Any advice is highly welcomed :)

Hey guys, so I thought I might write my opinion on this awesome piece of technology that is called Mini MicroSD Card Reader for Android.

First, for those of you who are not familiar with it:

This thing allows you to have expandble storage for you Nexus (or almost any other Android phone).

I bought it because I like installing a lot of ROMs, watching a lot of movies, etc. So all I have to do is to hook the Micro SDcard reader into my Nexus 5 and just like that, all of my data is there.

This is the link to their website: http://www.meenova.com/st/p/m3r.html

It even comes with a little keychain holder. It so small and compact that you wouldn't even regret spending 12$ on it. And you can even pick a color.

Note: For this to work, you need to install a free app from the Play Store called "StickMount". It's made by Chainfire, and it's free, although you can purchase it to support him.

I attached some photos down below and I also urge you to watch some videos about how simple it is.

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-V6A60dnEI[/YOUTUBE]

Continue watching other videos about this, just so that you would be sure that you want it: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=mini+micro+sd+card+reader+meenova

I bought it and Im very happy with it. It works perfectly.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Albieri[SPAM]:
I have and it works normally.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] zolo185:
There's Already a thread on this. You could've just posted your thought on it in that thread
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dave2metz:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] goofball2k:
Wish they would have put some more thought/design into the USB adapter.

Otherwise, this looks like a great item. On the fence about getting one.

Breakdown of the reader

I used it for several months with no problem at all.

Exfat and NTFS worked with card to 64gb in FAT32...

Recently, it is not any more recognized on telephone or computer.

Tested with various cards : 4gb, 8gb, 32gb and 64gb.

Under different format.

Anybody had this problem?

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Accessories] JohnnyHempseed:
I had the same problem. It was dead. They replaced it for free...all they required were a few pictures of the meenova not functioning.

Do we require root access to use this on our Nexus 5 ?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Pimpon60:
It is for what he asks me...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] goofball2k:
Not if you use Nexus Media Importer. For Stickmount,the answer is yes.

Can I flash a zip or do a nandroid backup into TWRP recovery with this SD Card reader?

I'm not sure how good it is, but it's 4 times cheaper, so might be worth it? Slightly bigger though, as it also has the usb to pc connection. There were a few other different ones on that site, might be worth a look if you don't mind waiting 20 days for china to ship it to you
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ramjet73:
Micro USB to Type A Adapter

FWIW, the Meenova comes with a micro USB to type A adapter that allows it to be used with a notebook or PC without removing the SD card. Of course that can be purchased separately and probably doesn't justify the cost differential but I also think the Meenova reader is smaller and lighter which could be a factor if you plan to move the phone while using it.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] idbl_fanatic:
Just got mine in the mail today, this thing is AWESOME!! The only thing is, at least for me, I can't delete anything through the phone, which, I guess is a good thing in a way.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ramjet73:
It might be a problem with your micro SD card. Try checking for errors using "Tools" in properties for the drive on a PC or notebook.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] idbl_fanatic:
Actually it was the permissions of the files that I was trying to delete

Damn , doesn't feat with Spigen Neo Hybrid :silly:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] theesotericone:
Nope. It fit's with the Slim though. I almost modified the Hybrid to make it work but realized I'd have to cut out almost all of the bottom portion. I've actually started liking the Slim more then the Hybrid since making the switch a while ago.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheCynicalCris:
Hi,

I have no idea what was done with phone before I got it but after turning on it's stuck at Sony Ericsson startup/logo screen. What's more after connecting to my PC Windows displays an "USB device not recognized" error. I am able to start the device in bootloder, but it displays:

KOVS110

SPL-0.72.0000

MicroP1-787

MicroP2-707

and I'm pretty sure it's not what stock bootloader should display. Of course I would like to bring this phone back to the functional stage or even stock if possible.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheCynicalCris:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanej2006:
Dam. It's bad when a forum is dead due to age...

I'm thinking of getting a brand new in the box Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 for the fun of it...

Issue is I'm unable to find any links to download the latest Windows Mobile 6.5 custom rom. Due to age all links are down.

Also, most users no longer have the rom. :(

I too may wait many years before finding one!

Any ideas where I can find the latest working custom rom for the Xperia X1?

Thanks.

Hello everybody !

TWRP 2.7.1.0 for ascend P7

*** Working In Progress ***

Open this new thread in the hope that you can help me in achieving TWRP for your P7 .

First of all, I have not this device currently - so, your help is welcome :good:

I will post here ( soon ) a list of the required - to be able to start building TWRP .

This stuff are required from your P7 device :

your international model : ( example Ascend P6 -> P6-U06 ) :

if your device can be unlocked ? ( bootloader unlocked )

build.prop ;

stock boot.img

stock recovery.img

screenshoots with CPU-Z !

more stuff will be added later ;

Please keep this thread clean, and on topic - in this way, it will be much easier to find the information needed !

Thank you very much for your cooperation !

Best regards !
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
How extract stock boot.img and recovery.img :

- root your device ;

> adb shell

$ su

# dd if =/dev/block/mmcblk0pX1 of=/storage/sdcard0/boot.img ( extract boot.img on internal storage )

# dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0px2 of=/storage/sdcard0/recovery.img ( extract recovery.img on internal storage )

# exit

$ exit

> adb pull /storage/sdcard0/boot.img ( extract boot.img from your device on your PC )

> adb pull /storage/sdcard0/recovery.img ( extract recovery.img from your device on your PC )

How you can determainate partition mmcblk0pX1 for boot :

> navigate in your device : /dev/block/platform/xxx.1 or xxx.2/by-name/ here you will be able to see :

So , mmcblk0pX1 will be in this case -> mmcblk0p42 !

Please follow the same way for determinate partition mmcblk0pX2 for recovery !

If you have already CWM for your device, even in Chinese, please upload here - I don't understand this language currently :D

Also some question :

Do you have in your device :

or

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/newsys ?

or both ....

Also do you have : /dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/sdcard ?

Please, can you take a screenshot with "mount" on your device :

Thank you very much !

Why TWRP ? I'm starting a CWM Recovery for P6/P7 and other devices.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Hello again !

For enable some stuff in TWRP recovery ( like mount external storage, battery indicator and auto light display ) I need also to know some PATH from your device !

Here you will see P6 PATH :

Brightness Path = /sys/devices/platform/k3_fb.1/leds/lcd_backlight0/brightness

Mass Storage Path = /sys/class/android_usb/android0/f_mass_storage/lun/file

Battery Path = /sys/devices/platform/bq_bci_battery.1/power_supply/Battery

1° I need some proper path from your device for Brightness, Mass Storage and Battery !

2° Need a screenshots with this commands :

3° Also I need some stock : libraries , /system/lib/egl/egl.cfg and also /system/bin/linker !

( /system/lib/libc.so; /system/lib/libdl.so ; /system/lib/liblog.so ; /system/lib/libm.so ; /system/lib/libstdc++.so ; /system/lib/libz.so )

Also I can see you have a new service /sbin/set_immutable ... if someone can clarify me what could be ?

In your boot.img after mount /system you have this command :

exec /sbin/set_immutable 1

Maybe someone can set to 0 ( # exec /sbin/set_immutable 0 ) to see what is happend ....

Thank you very much for your collaboration , and I'll await your response :highfive:

Edit :

Please , I need also to know your system and userdata partitions :

boot -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p17

recovery -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p18

system -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p??

userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p??
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] olegusss:

Brightness Path =/sys/devices/platform/k3_fb.1/leds/lcd_backlight0/brightness

Battery Path = /sys/devices/platform/bq_bci_battery.1/power_supply/Battery

Yes
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Thank you very, very much ! :good:

Edit :

Please, can you take a look into : /dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name... and tell me the right partition for system and userdata ?

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/system -> mmcblk0p??

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/userdata -> mmcblk0p??

I already know boot and recovery :

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/boot -> mmcblk0p17

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/recovery -> mmcblk0p18

Thanks again !

Re-Edit :

I think you will have :

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/system -> mmcblk0p28

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/userdata -> mmcblk0p30

/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/cust -> mmcblk0p29

But I need confirmation if this value is true !
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] XQC:
Confirmed (P7-L10)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] XQC:
In the /system folder there's a file called set_immutable.list - even if you rooted the device, it still prevents writing to system folders. E.g. you can't install Xposed.

Only if you delete / rename set_immutable.list on top of root you gain full writing access:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53291974&postcount=200
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
OK, now I anderstand .... But why you not remove set_immutable binary from /sbin into boot.img - I think in this way there will no be any set_immutable.list in your /system - so you'll have no restrictions to mount /system ro/rw .

If you want to testin this way , let me to know and I'll make this change for you to test. Also I can enable /init.d into kernel.

Awaiting your request ....

Also thank you very much for all info about your device ... Today later I'll provide a test TWRP for P7.

Edit :

If you set set_immutable 0 , than you will be able to write into /system !

> adb shell
$ su
# exec /sbin/set_immutable 0
# exit
$ exit

Hello Surdu !

Sorry for this question, but you say that to install TWRP , the device must be unlocked !

How to do this ?

I understand all the rest of the explanations but i'm stopped with the step of unlocking !

Thanks for your answer
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Tt0b1:
Hi,

first of all, make sure that it is not already unlocked. On mine it was unlocked from the beginning and I didn't have to do anything. To do that, turn off your phone completely, then hold Volume down and Power keys until you see a white screen that says something like "Rescue / Fastboot". On the bottom of the screen there's a red text that should tell you the state of the bootloader. If it says "Bootloader unlocked" then it's unlocked ;) If it's not unlocked yet, have a look here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2666116

Any idea why?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Tt0b1:
Mh that's odd.. Why are some devices locked and others aren't?.. I mean I didn't check right at the beginning, maybe it was unlocked by something else that I did.. I rooted using RootGenius and then removed protection from system files using this guide.

Btw. what happens if you run "fastboot oem unlock" without the password?.. Also I should mention, unlockign the bootloader might reset your device to factory defaults.. So backup your files..

Here is a cmd based tool to flash different recovery's (stock, chinese,trwp) and boot into recovery i have created for the ones that are interested in it.....

Works on my P7-L00 without any problems.

Extract the zip and put it on your C drive connect your phone and start recovery.bat and choose the option you want.

Do not disconnect your phone during the flashing procedure!!

Use it at your own risk.

I'm sure the tool will make it much easier, but just for the sake of completeness: The .img file needs to be on your computer in your current working-directory. Fastboot will transfer it to your phone during the process..

Hi Surdu .

So TWRP perfectly backs up on the internal SD and external SD , but unfortunately you can not restore them either from internal or external memory SD.

Restore Failed :confused:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Hello !

Thanks for your INFO, I can not know what works, because I can not test .

Please try to make more test, and let me to know - I'll try to solve this issues on the next update .

( Example : Can you flash a simple zip like Gapps 4.4.2 successfully ? , can you mount Internal Storage/External Storage to be able to copy some zip archive into it ? ..... )

Thank you for all your tests, and because didn't see your post ( perhaps was at the same time ... ) I already opened on Development section TWRP for Ascend P7 !

We can move all discussions from here, there .

Good luck !

Edit :

To be able to see what was wrong on restore backup , please upload here this file : > adb pull /cache/recovery/last_log ! Thanks !

Also you can try the new update TWRP from here , perform a backup and than restore to see if it works !
