Divie,

You know, Thebear has over 9000 thanks from over 7000 posts and is a recognized contributor. You on the other hand do not. There is no reason for you to do the condescending "good boy" comment. It just makes you sound insecure. He provided facts and you responded like a child.

Accolades of any type don't excuse an abrasive or arrogant manor.

The warning was warranted though even if the tone was off.

I'll look into the method a little more before I try it myself but thanks all for the tip and the caution.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
Hello,

Only today I received my fire tv and rooted with ADBfire tool and disabled updates with pm disable com.amazon.dcp command ( this is the only method I used). Then installed busybox and wanted to mount USB drive with ADBfire tool but there was some errors so I uninstalled busybox and done factory reset. After this my box boots to Amazon fire TV colour logo and says "press start on the remote" when I press start for 2-3 times the led on the box starts to flash orange colour . I found that you can enter recovery mode with USB keyboard connected. I done everything but my box just keeps restarting and no recovery option. Is it possible that my recovery partition is corrupted? Is there something I can do to unbrick my box?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
Just a follow up:

I'm still can't boot to recovery mode. What I tried:

Holding Print/I/ALT and after I see amazon colour logo press all buttons again. Then screen flickers and starts boot again. Then again after I see colour logo press all buttons. After 2-3 times box restarts and on TV shows message "No Signal' for about 1-2 sec and box starts boot again. Then I see black screen with Amazon logo but no recovery option nothing =. I was playing for about 1h and no recovery. Is it possible that my box can't enter recovery?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
When entering recovery menu does ethernet must be connected? Does remote must be on? I'm trying everything but can't enter recovery mode. My box just restarts and that's it. Any info or help will appreciated
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jljaries42@gmail.com:
Hi

Have tried a differnt keyboard? or the keyboard without the HUB? (if you are using one)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
I was trying with 4 different keyboards and connecting with or without hub. Then on 3 different TV + 3 different HDMI cables + removed batteries on remote + ethernet cable connected and disconnected + different combinations on keyboard NOTHING :) by my understanding this is because I done "disable com.amazon.dcp" and then factory reset. I'm planing to play more latter today and update if I will have any luck.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastafunk:
I can verify it has nothing to do with disabling the updates in that manner.. I have factory reseted at least 10 times and each time I disable the updates immediately with pm disable. It must be something else you've done.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
Rooted then installed busybox and that's it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
You are probably just using the wrong key presses or your timing is off. On my keyboard, its alt + sysrq + i. Do that a few times while booting up. If you do manage to get to the "update failed" screen, do the keypress again. The press home button on keyboard to bring up menu and choose factory reset. Or maybe when its booting and tells you to press home key on remote, use a keyboard instead and see if it gets any further.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kodikas:
When I see colour Amazon logo I'm pressing Alt+PrtSc/Sysrq+i then screen goes black and colour Amazon logon come up then again I'm pressing the same combination and then box just won't boot, then I wait for about 2 min and again box starts to boot first white Amazon logo then colour Amazon logo and I'm pressing combination again then box restarts 2 times and shuts down. I was trying left ALT right ALT 4 different keyboards but never saw failed screen. My friend have Amazon box and I booted to failed screen without problems with all keyboards. I think that I need to send box back to Amazon for replacement.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayosx:
Could you fix the problem?

Hello,

I was reading some post of bricked FATVs, wondering if you fixed your proboem and if you did, how?

How can you brick a AFTV?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davekaz:
If your able to boot to amazon logo did you try remote sequence to factory reset (back button and right arrow for 15 sec

I have purchased the i-Geo Polstar and having problems with the setup. I have and Motorola XDA2 and Running TomTom 6.00. The XDA2 bonds with the Polstar but registers No GPS Device on my PDA. I have it set at – OTHER BLUETOOTH GPS RECEIVER - and connected to BT on Com 6 I get this error - Please establish a Bluetooth Connection between your GPS Receiver and you device. For details, see the documentation for your GPS receiver and your device. I have followed the instructions to the letter but just get error saying NO GPS DEVICE. The device is in the bonded Bluetooth list. I have spent a day on this one now and it’s driving me mad!

Regards Danny Blue

I have read loads of threads re bluetooth and GPS most of which seem not so recent. Turned of and on incoming beams.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sidd:
Have you PAIR the GPS device with the XDA before starting the TomTom, if not then close the TomTom and search the Bluetooth device from your XDA, once its been found, pair it with the pairing key (usually 0000), once pairing is done, then try the TomTom.

GoodLuck

Sidd
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Danny Blue:
Yes It is paired with device, it shows up in bonded devices but not in TomTom
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] sidd:
Important:: Start->Settings->Connection->Beam and Switch-Off (un-tick).

1. Make sure that your XDA's bluetooth is OFF mode before to start the TomTom.

2. Then select "Other Bluetooth device-->Com port 6 (once you click on ComPort 6 notice for the BLUE light to lit-up) now your TomTom should minimise and the Bluetooth Browser should open for you to select the already paired bluetooth GPS device".

3. Select your already paired device and TICK-ON "always use this selected device".

Try point 2 on "Bluetooth com 5" if com 6 doesnt work.

Let me know

Sidd

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghavaggsss:
Hello

2 days back i accidently dropped my nexus 4 in a bucket full of water.The phone was into the bucket for 4-5 seconds.I immediately turned it off.After an hour or so i put it in a jar full of rice.It was there for about 24 hrs.(with sim tray removed i did not open the phone)

Now i am using it and everything works perfectly fine.Should i keep using it this way or do something to prevent internal damage?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mashed_Potatoes:
To be completely sure its dry take the phone apart and use a hair dryer.

Since i'm more of a realist than an optimist, i think your phone will survive this accident but have in mind that there is a chance of hardware failure in the future.

Water + electronics = corrosion
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghavaggsss:
I think its completely dried but i read in forums that using hair dryer is not a good idea. I can't believe such a fragile phone like the nexus 4 survived it.I have my phone insured (yes water damage is included) but the guy at the service told me to wait for a month or two and afterwards get my touch and motherboard changed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ltdrev:
While ago I had my N4 for a week or two dropped it in a toilet bowl :(

I did panic almost stripped a screw opening it and unglued the LCD with an hairdryer! Same phone same situation DONT USE IT!

more to that my engineer friend told me I coulda done more damage by unsoldering some IC's

hairdryer big no-no!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghavaggsss:
Using hair dryer could be the worst idea resulting in a solid burnt state motherboard.I think i should keep using it till it works fine and get it repaired under insurance if i face any problems
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Travel_Mate:
Same happened to me last autumn. What I did was; First hard shake to remove all the water, then immediately in a bag of rise, after 12 hours (I couldn't find a screwdriver earlier) I took it apart, disconnected the battery and left it in a bag of rise on a sunny window for another 48 hours. Checking the water damage indicators shows only little purple (not the whole, only small parts) on sim tray and usb, on the main board indicator is like new. After this whole procedure phone is working without a problem since then.

Hi everyone !

I wanted to try a custom ROM but now I'd like to get back to stock experience. I flashed the stock firmware 10.5.A.0.230 with Flashtool successfully but now I can't update my phone through PC Companion or the phone's settings pannel. PC Companion tells me I have a modified software on my phone.

Is there a way I can reset my phone so it can get updates from PC Companion again and not only through Flashtool ?

Thanks for your answers, Lucas.

[Verizon LG G3] JellyWoo:
How do you change the boot animation for the G3? I tried the standard way of replacing the bootanimation.zip file in system/media, then changing the permissions, but it doesn't seem to be working. When I reboot the system, there is only a black screen while booting. Also, does anyone have a backup of the original boot animation? I forgot to make a backup while playing around with it.
[Verizon LG G3] LgG2-Ttrain:
I have had that some problem before also I just kept trying others until one worked. As far as the stock one I just renamed mine, I try not to delete that stuff. If no one helps you out I can get you a link when I get home tonight.
[Verizon LG G3] bunchies:
Which one were you trying to use, the desc file could have been incorrect or something with the images could be causing it

naming/placement

heres a stock one

when copying a new one over, just rename the stock one to bootanimation.bak & leave it in the media folder :p
[Verizon LG G3] JellyWoo:
Thanks! I usually make a backup, but forgot to. I was trying to get this one to work: reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2ac4f2/i_made_a_marvel_dc_character_loop_boot_animation/
[Verizon LG G3] bunchies:
Well i tried multiple edits of the desc file and it seems to be the pictures themselves

they're 480x800, i swear i remember being able to use lower resolution images for a bootanimation and it would still work but i think im mistaken

so request a 1440x2560 version

i have a batch file somewhere to automatically resize a list of images but i feel like it would stretch the images and make them look horrible
[Verizon LG G3] JellyWoo:
Darn. Thanks for trying!
[Verizon LG G3] IamPro:
Was doing it manually but too much work, now I just use Boot Animations app.. Much quicker
[Verizon LG G3] phobos512:
So not sure if this has been figured out or not but I was playing around with this last night. I attempted to use the Red Helix boot animation from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002893

I pulled the boot .zip file out of the flashable zip and downloaded it to my phone and moved it over with Root Explorer, changing the permissions to match the original file (which I saved and appended with .bak). Upon boot however, only the repeating portion plays.

As you all know the stock boot animation is four different sets of files, two for the Quick Circle case and two for the full screen. Each is the loading animation (plays once) and then the waiting animation (repeating until the home screen is ready). In the new boot animation I tried it's just a full screen loading and a full screen waiting animation in two folders. However as I stated above only the repeating portion plays for both the loading and waiting periods (I can tell when it switches as the screen flashes black in between). I tried matching the folder structure in my zip file to the stock animation (four folders and associated config file) but that resulted in the phone staying on the LG screen until the home screen was ready. I can't figure out how to get the actual loading portion of the animation to play. I don't mind just the repeating portion playing (it's a red Android mascot with a white/red light going in a circle underneath and looks pretty cool) but I'd still like to see the full animation.

Any ideas? Might it be related to the desired frame rate (45 vice stock 30)?

Bump! I've tried changing the desc file for the boot animation I'm using from say p 1 0 part0 to p 2 0 part0 for a maybe lucky fix, but no dice. I'd also really like to know what's going on with this.
[Verizon LG G3] dancer79uk:
I know it's an old thread, but I have an old school BIOS boot animation that does this too, only the repeating part of the animation shows up. I don't use the circle case and the option is switched off in the Display menu. Did you ever get a fix for this? Thanks.
[XDA Assist] angeleyeschina:
I've zte nubia z5s mini with TWRP v. 2.6.3.0 and I installed MIUI V5 on it.

No OTA is able to update, and by reading on the matter, I found out about the build.prop file.

In my current file, I have the line:

ro.product.mod_device=nx403

I saw in the script log in TWRP that it's looking for nx403a

My question is, should I edit the build.prop to add that 'a', in order to get all future OTA updates working?

Will it ruin anything on my phone?

Keep in mind, that although I'm a software developer - I'm a newbie with Android systems, and this is for my private phone. On my job I work with asp .net...
[XDA Assist] matt4321:
I imagine it would be fine, but make a backup in your TWRP so if there is an issue you can restore your working system!

I'd also take a look at this thread [GUIDE] How to edit build.prop on any Android device!

Read and ask about the risks there!
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
Since we do not have a fourm for your device, please post your question in General discussion	> Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking so that the right experts may help you.

Changing the Build.prop is typically not recommended. Particularly if you are looking for TWRP updates. Wrong Recovery will hardbrick your phone.
[XDA Assist] angeleyeschina:
P.S changed the question a bot

Just FYI, I found out I looked at the wrong line, so my question became a bit different. But, maybe even more troublesome...

Hi guys,

This has been bothering me for quite a long time and its very unusual for me at least.

So my friend has a WiFi connection (in theory 512 kbps )

When we try to download from browser from PC or Mobile(browser) speed is normal i e 70 - 80 kbps max.

But in Google Play Store speeds are ridiculously high. We tried from his Micromax and my Moto G too.

For example yesterday i downloaded Pocket Tanks (40 mb) in just few seconds. Updates are super fast too.

Even my 2 Mbps WiFi doesn't go so fast.

Its a good thing but I am trying to figure out why not on PC or Browser but only in Play Store?

Any guesses?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
It's possible that you're reading different measurements. Remember the difference between a B and a b. A B is byte. A b is a bit. A byte is 8 bits. Speeds are typically measured in amounts of bits, not bytes. Thus, one thing might give you a measurement in Kb or Mb, and something else might be measured in KB or MB.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iosstu:
Nope there is no question of measurements....

I know this is very unusual and thats what im trying to figure out...

I guess I would have to post video regarding this.... besides other phones camera how do you record onscreen activity of mobile?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iosstu:
Hi

So I was trying to record speed using android dev kit and when downloading it I was getting 3 - 4 mbps.

So I'm getting high speeds from google servers as ADK and play store apps are on those servers...

Can someone plz explain it further?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naruto.omkar:
i have the same issue and was wondering if i could get high speeds on my browser too?have you found out anything new?:p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] widewozzy:
Yeah, few day back I read somewhere, that if you get very high speed on the following sites :-

-> Google Playstore

-> Google Drive

-> Youtube. etc

Or any other site related to GOOGLE, You are directly connected to GOOGLE's Server. I'am also getting very high speed on these sites from yesterday. I think Google is providing direct support of its servers to different Service Providers.
