[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pawprints1986:
I downloaded another version, version n (since i couldnt get version o to work). I made a bind of bad piggies, and it did sucessfully transfer over to my external folder. which was great. but then i rebooted to test it out....

it forgot the paths I created upon reboot. what am i doing wrong?? is this program seriously just too good to be true??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pawprints1986:
Can anyone offer any help at all?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pawprints1986:
Found my answer to this problem, but now i have a new one... when i ran the application again - the one i binded to test - it now has the data in both locations (on the internal sd as well as the external).

how do i make it so it only writes the new data to the external??
[Lenovo A850] hungtrauvang:
Anyone can show me how to repair boot of my lenovo A850? Many thanks!
[Lenovo A850] GreatApo:
To repair sth you should know the problem... if you know what may be boken search in google how to fix it.

The easiest you can do is flash a new rom. Follow a a850 rom flashing video. Mind that you will lose every data in the phone...

I can't be sure that this is an a850 rom (since the link is broken) but it seems so... If that is an a850 rom, you shouldn't flash it in the first place (unless you was sure that it will work).

I also think the you own an a850i and not a850L phone.

...and stop spamming the forum (copy-pasting your problem under other topics).

Conclusion: Try to flash a new rom for a850i. If you don't have one, contact your seller.
[Lenovo A850] Joomlar:
Sorry about spam.

Yes, i this is a850i version. I found on XDA that A850 and a850i used the same ROM versions.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broadley1:
Guys I'm running out of room on internal storage and was thinking about flashing on stock slot but don't wanna f anything up. Give me a basic walk through on how to flash to stock slot?

Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisbass:
Just make a backup of your stock slot, wipe it, then flash whichever ROM you'd like to in that spot. I've never messed with other slots, have always just wiped stock and flashed there. Never had any problems. Hope this helps
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broadley1:
That's what I thought but wasn't sure
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhantomGhost:
Yup, same here, I always use stock. As long as you make a nandroid and just back it up on your SD card or PC, you are fine. If you ever royally screw up, you can always go back to your nandroid.
[HTC Desire S] Pieter2627:
A friend has given me his Desire S to fix what I originally thought was just a stuck power button that prevented it from starting up. But the button is now fixes and I've been trying the last few days to get it to start up.

What I have tried so far is to enter Recovery mode, but upon choosing it, the phone would just go to the HTC logo screen, fibrate once and then fibrate agian after a second or two for a few times and the screen would go blank. The same happens with normal bootup. It also seems that the phone is still running with the blank screen because I have to pull the battery to startup again.

I then tried to use the latest RUU (Android 4.0) from HTC but the phone is not recognized by the computer (I think it is because it didn't startup enough to be able to present itself to the computer). So I unlocked it and used fastboot (from Ubuntu as OS) to flash the recovery (recovery_signed.img) and boot (boot_signed.img) from the RUU. With this recovery and normal startup would remain at the HTC screen and wouldn't go blank as before - still fibrates a few times.

I also tried to rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip and putting it on a SD and the bootloader does detect it, but presents the normal boot screen afterwards (I think it complains about it being incorrect - the display is too quick for me to see the error).

Now I also have a Desire S and made a backup of it before I installed a custom ROM. So I also tried the recovery.img that I have from this backup, but then recovery is stuck on the blank screen again.

Is there anything that I did wrong, missed or may not have tried yet? And how can I go about to fix it?:confused:

[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
The PG88IMG wont work coz ur s-on. Ul need to extract the zip file and put the recovery.img in ur fastboot folder and then flash it from fastboot, volume down + power then select select fastboot then plug ur phone into pc and open a fastboot command window and type

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Also a ruu u run from fastboot and u need to relock ur bootloader.

(i dunno how all this is done using ubuntu but thats how on windows so im sure ul know or figure it out)
[HTC Desire S] Pieter2627:
Ok, didn't know that I needed S-OFF for PG88IMG - thanks for pointing that out :o. I did flash the recovery (paragraph 3), it is just named `recovery_signed.img` and not 'recovery.img` - I assume that there isn't a difference between the two?

Do I open the RUU while in fastboot on the phone (after relocking) or do I run it from a fastboot command? :confused:

(On Ubuntu fastboot is installed as a program so I can call it after I CD to the extracted rom folder and I assume it is working since I didn't get any errors)
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
Well it depends, could be 4ext recovery, CWM, or TWRP. But as far as the name, could be called peterpan.img and it wouldnt matter haha

Yh boot ur phone into fastboot, connect it to pc, relock bootloader and then run ruu. The ruu should be exe file so just double click it to run.
[HTC Desire S] Pieter2627:
Ok, relocked it and went into fastboot mode and then opened the RUU, but was not recognized. Then followed this (droid-now.com/2013/10/fix-working-fastboot-drivers-windows-8-1-x64/) since I used Win 8.1 for the RUU and it flashed successfully.

But it is still stuck on the HTC screen - gave it 30 minutes for the first boot after flash. Recovery is also still stuck, so I reflashed and same issue. :confused:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockgod213:
Hi guys. I'm having a heck of a time with my new tab. I appear to have something of a calibration issue with the battery. At the moment, it won't boot without the charger plugged in and displays 42 percent charge when charged while the device is off. I have tried wiping the battery stats via twrp with no luck. It still won't operate without the charger plugged in. The only thing that will work is recovery and sometimes Odin. I checked the battery voltage in twrp via terminal and it displayed 4.3 ish volts. As far as I know, that's the full charge voltage. Why, then, is it not seeing it as fully charged? Any input would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Maybe my SGT-7.7 battery scaling (fuel gauge reset) guide will help.

Our tab uses the same fg_reset_cap

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2398663

Don't forget the relevant spaces in the command between echo "1" > /sys....... (or just copy/paste it to avoid errors)

Other than that, maybe the battery is defective?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockgod213:
Well, I'm giving the calibration a go. I did manage to get it booting again. Currently letting it charge. Not too hopeful but the alternative is paying Samsung for repairs because its already rooted and the warranty void. First device I've ever had issues with after rooting, funnily enough. Thanks for the help so far.

NEVER run till empty. Risk permanently damaging the battery.

Links to research found in my guide in previous post. Also many a XDA user issue with failing to power on device after a 100% battery discharge, some requiring a replacement battery. ....

Most of those battery calibration apps do nothing for scaling issues, just reset reporting.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockgod213:
Well, I tried calibrating the battery but clearly, the voltage is too low and that is what is causing the issue. At least, I'm pretty sure that's what it is. I can manage to get it to turn on but it turns off without warning. No shutdown sequence, just dies. Checking the voltage with Battery HD, it fluctuates between 4.2, which I take to be normal and 3.0 which I know is way too low. I've bought an external battery and I'm trying to charge it with that. It may not work but my only other option is sending it to Samsung. I guess as a last ditch effort I could simply disassemble it and reconnect the battery, which I've read often works but I have a feeling this isn't an easy to disassemble device.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Send it back for battery replacement
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Well I run all my batteries down until they switch off about once a month to calibrate, and have never had any ill effects. These include my iPad 3, Samsung galaxy s5, Note 2, and now my tab s. Have also done this on my other gadgets that I don't use that often anymore.

This is straight from the Apple website regarding battery care. Scroll to the bottom of the page and read the last section. Yes I know it's Apple, but they all use the same type of batteries. https://www.apple.com/uk/batteries/ipad.html
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
I still believe it's bad advice. ....

Many many examples in XDA where users have discharge the battery completely and damaged the battery or the battery falls "asleep" (internal safety circuit opens) with the charger then unable to service the battery. The only solutions were to try charge/wake battery with high current AC charger or battery replacement.

In OP case, appears to be defective battery.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
Just giving people my experiences with battery calibration.

Yes it does seem that the op may have a defective battery.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clintonroche:
Sounds like the OP has an issue with the battery.

Here is some good info on lithium batteries. http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

i'll give this a shot. i really hate to see my tablet going nuts over what's its real battery percentage. crossing my fingers
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockgod213:
The battery appears to still work and even hold a small charge. The problem is that the software is telling the battery it is fully charged and is cutting off (my theory). I did a number of battery calibration methods while the battery was at the low voltage. I'm thinking the battery meter now thinks 3.5v or so is a full charge. At 3.5v, it'll say 100 percent, then with some use, it's down to 2 percent (according to the meter) in minutes. I really don't think the battery is dead. Battery University even states that over 90 percent of returned "defective" batteries are perfectly fine and are simply problematic because of other issues. The battery might be dead but I refuse to give up on it. Does anyone know a way to completely reset the battery meter?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThE_SoUrCe:
monitoring the battery and it's fluctuating, could also be a bad battery but too bad, knox void meter has been tripped. I wont be able to send this to sammy for service/battery replacement. i'll give UpInTheAir's method another shot. else. i'll call it a day and will go to sammy and perhaps, swallow their bnew battery replacement price.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThE_SoUrCe:
This did it for me! Thanks UpInTheAir. 20 hrs with normal usage and im currently at 52%. I guess a few more charge/discharge cycle and i'd be able to squeeze out the battery's full potential
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Nice to hear a success story. Let's hope the battery stays healthy :)
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThE_SoUrCe:
Aww. I guess i spoke too soon, battery stats keeps on jumping. Would you advise twrp installation + battery stats wipe? I already lost my warranty when I rooted so i'll do all possible resolutiin first before sending this for battery replacement (might cost an arm and leg though) *sigh*
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
If that doesn't work. ...

I personally would;

1. Download your full firmware package

2. Install TWRP and full backup to external sdcard

3. Format system, data, cache, wipe dalvik cache

4. Boot into DL mode and flash firmware

Is there a place where I can download (old) bootloaders?

Or do I just have to download a full ROM image, and extract the bootloader from there?

I want to flash a different bootloader without flashing anything else.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Which one are you looking for? And why flash an old bootloader???

Upgrade/downgrade of the BL is usually done through flashing the official firmware. You can do it in fastboot, but that's risky stuff... Why would you?

I am trying to install flash player with no success using websites via google search. I have probably installed 20 versions of flash player now. Including ones from these forums that appears to be up to date.

I am using a Motorola Moto G LTE, stock, unrooted with Kitkat 4.4.3.

I do not know if I am doing something wrong or Im getting old versions of the flash player. I have used guides that claim to be working for kitkat. They all are as follows.

Download Dolphin

Download jetpack

Enable jetpack

Enable unknown

Instal flash player, been installing it from the apk file with ES and not through the browser. Dont know if this matters.

Force flash through Dolphin

Download SWF player

When I try to play a sample flash movie in SWF player it tells me "flash player not found" It also suggests to download AIR but AIR wants to spy on me. Google is spying on me enough and I dont know if my flash movie is compatible with it.

So I ask if someone could please point out my error.

I wonder if there is a module or if it is at all possible to build a module that would change the phone's DPI on the fly, without rebooting?

I upgraded from the Note 2 four days ago. I wanted to go through a few charge cycles before contemplating a return. I'm just about ready to pull the trigger and take the G3 back. The battery life has been horrid. Less than 3 hours SOT with phone losing juice in 8 hours. This is light to moderate use. Mostly browsing and inet radio.

With My Note 2 and SlimKat, I'd get 5-6 hours SOT and a 24+ hour charge with the slim kernel and 2 year old stock battery. Stand-by time was a wondrous 3+ days. The G3 has just lost 6% charge in 40 minutes of just browsing on wifi. I could see that happening with iffy LTE but wifi? Frustrating to say the least.

Sad because I love this phone for a variety of reasons. This phone maintains a phenomenal signal when compared to my Note 2. It's hard to keep a signal in my workplace but this phone pulls it off fulltime. This is my first LG and love their version of Android in comparison to TW. I'm finished with Samsung phones and this seemed like a worthy alternative. I'll give it to Samsung, though. The Note 2 was a masterpiece.
