How did you manage to get it bricked?Have you tried flashing your original firmware thru Odin?Maybe problems with USB drivers.Try re-installing Samsung Mobile usb drivers and un-install Kies 3 if its in your PC.I have a Mega 6.3,almost every custom rom cooked here I have flashed with success.And even stock firmwares in sammobile.com.Yes,I am from the Philippines,sure they will fix it there.

P.s.Have you ran Odin as administrator?

Hello, it seems that all the photos and videos taken by the default camera app are saved to the internal memory. How do I set the save directory to sdcard? Thanks.

Under "HKLM\Drivers\Builtin"

I noticed these registry keys and wondered if anyone knows what they are for?

"FrontLight"

and

"Nled"

Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm new to pocket pc's.. are registry changes lost on a soft/hard reset?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceriain:
Hi guys,

Mother in law just picked one of these up (I'm setting it up, etc) and it seems to have an issue (or 2).

When I power it down while a usb, or power, cable is connected, it just boots straight back up.

When it is powered off and I connect a power cable, or connect usb to pc to power it, it boots up. No plain black battery charging screen.

Any ideas? .:confused:

btw. It's still fully stock rom, but with unlocked bootloader and rooted.

Last time I saw behaviour like this was with a crappy, cheap Chinese tablet.

TIA
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicw:
It's not a bug - it's a feature :)
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceriain:
Seriously? Care to elaborate? Thanks for replying btw. :)

In my house are HTC One (M7), Moto G, Google Nexus 7 (2012), Tesco Hudl and a Galaxy Young; none of those do anything like this.

Edit: just tried a 'proper' power cable and it acted as expected (charging gif and not full boot), so it's a pc/usb connection that boots automatically. I think I see what you mean by "it's feature"; allows the phone to boot when connected to pc usb for fastboot and stuff, is that it?

Thanks again. :)
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicw:
I did not investigate in depth - but I also know rebooting behavior on my S3 minis. And, yes, possibly theres a kind of wakeup recognition on data line in USB connection.

If you google about this topic you will find it in the web on other devices also - but i did not find a handsome reason for why the manufacturers do let them behave like that.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceriain:
I'll do some more reading, but I'm okay with how it seems.

Most grateful for your assistance and input; thanks. :)

i got 2 ASUS Fonepad 7 (ME372CG) TW version one works and the other one is stuck on a bootloop from the beggining, i searched and tried everything from factory reset, and sd download to install a new firmware that i got from this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2709256 but then i saw it was WW so thats why it failed, i downloaded the firmware for TW on the asus site but its a zip file and it does nothing when i put it on the sd and press Sd download i tried changin its name to asus_bundle.zip, changin the extension to raw and i was wondering if anyone here would help me =S i waited for the tablet for almost a month and its been a week of research and its not working, Thanks in advance!

Did you solve this problem? Im having the same problem. The tw firmware available on ASUS site is not the full firmware. It does not contain enough files for the flashing.
[Sprint LG G2] tristan21:
I have stock kit kat on my LG G2 but its rooted with xposed module.

Will this impact the knock code update? i read somewhere that if my phone is rooted, the OTA knock code update will not work.

Is that true?
[Sprint LG G2] Tannereed:
You can't take any OTA with root or any other system modifications done. You could potentially brick your phone. So I would advise you not to take the ZVD update. Go stock first before you try it. I spent a whole day fiddling with mine after I made that mistake by accident. If you have a custom recovery, there is a thread somewhere with a flashable rom with the new update, but you have to flash the kernel separate. I can find the link if you do.

Hope that clears things up for you!

or if anyone would know why hyperdrive was doing that and could help me fix that problem that would be great, i liked how the s5 apps worked, i got used to them.

thanks.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Seems kinda cheap tbh, but it could be ok. Lots of people have had the power button problems though and most just replace the part. Its only a few bucks if I remember correctly. Can't say I've done it myself, but I imagine its a pretty easy thing to replace if you know how to solder.

There's probably videos out there if you haven't checked.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] vigilante_blues:
Alright I am sorry if this is a stupid question but I really need help, I live where there is almost no service. We use a Microcell and I basically rely on wifi for updating and downloading apps. My Galaxy s4 was rooted with casual and every time I try to download an app or update it gives me an error number which I have googled. I followed one guys steps which basically sent my phone in a frenzy he said to force stop play store delete cache and data then do the same with google services framework. Then if that didn't work to uninstall updates to playstore which I did. After I attempted this my playstore would keep blacking out and I would get a message that the google play store suddenly stopped. Even after I restarted my phone it did the same thing. This would be on all screens so I couldn't do hardly anything because that popup would keep showing up, even after the restart. So I did a factory reset and lost all my apps which I knew would happen but I didn't know what else to do. After the reset my playstore updated its self but it's still not downloading apps from wifi. If I use data it will though. Could this have to do with my ISP or is it a google play store issue? My other family members who have android phones are having the same issue. Also my ISP is currently having issues with youtube don't know if that could be a clue since both our owned by google. If there is a mod I could do since my phone is rooted to fix this let me know. Sorry for the long question just disheartening to go through all this work and still can't download or update apps from wifi.

Just some feedback for others. I was getting a system crash/reboot every 1 or 2 days at least with both stock and cm11, for the past year on my 905. I tried lots to increase stability, and finally solved that disabling LTE, by selecting gsm / wcdma auto. I've had it like that for 3 weeks and can now get a week+ of uptime. Data speed difference is unoticable by me, and 3g is fast enough anyway. I'm sharing fyi. Cheers

Well, Telstra for example say they do have the update, but won't release it due to issues. In this case it's hard to get any additional info.
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
By additional info, I guess you mean "what are the issues?"

If they are the same issues that other countries have with the 907, they wont go away with just testing, moto will need to code some changes but its still withe providers.
[Droid RAZR M General] simbasacuk:

[Droid RAZR M General] kabaldan:
Australian xt925 getting KitKat can hardly help xt905 to leave the jbbl/3.0 kernel ghetto.

You need device specific KitKat bootloader and modem firmware to go the kkbl/3.4 kernel route.

Flashing bootloader images made for a different device (xt925) will most likely brick your device (xt905).

Until there's an official KitKat update for xt905, it will be forced to stay on the old 3.0 kernel.

(Unless someone smarter than me will figure out how to keep the BP with JB modem firmware happy and not crashing when running with AP on 3.4 kernel.)
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
I am not suggesting anyone do this to their phone, however, I have read on here somewhere, where someone flashed an XT905 firmware (using RSD or such) onto his XT907, and it was working :cyclops:

On my old phone, a Sony XPeria Ray ST18A, I used to flash the international ROM (ST18I) and then selectively fl;ash the baseband from the ST18A Sony firmware to correct/access the local radio bands.

I have a "spare" XT905 because I smashed my screen just after I bought it :silly:, and had to buy a new one :mad: with insurance... Since then, I bought a cheapie screen off ebay and fixed the screen (but somehow managed to also damage the earpiece.. so it doesn't work).

Does anyone know for certain if flashing a XT907 Kernal ONLY onto an XT907 will definitely brick it? With these phones only differing (as far as I can see) in the frequency bands, does the kernel contain specifically? :confused:

Looking at the XML in the firmware (for a Telstra XT905) I notice there is a "Modem" specific line, which I would guess to contain the Band specific code (similar to my previous "baseband" components on my Sony)

I have seen threads where people have edited / corrected the above firmware file to enable it to flash, so that givces my an inkluing pof hope (or delusion view).

If I was crazy enough to try, any ideas what may be the minimum or if it would even be theoretically possible to only flash a KK "kernel" from a file, which I would need to keep? I would expect the phone to be not bootable until I flashed a KKBL firmware, if it wasn't bricked by the process. i guessing the blue stuff above and maybe the green. You only live once, and the phone is a "spare" :fingers-crossed:
[Droid RAZR M General] lem22:
I did that too and it's working indeed (XT902 firmwares as well). But you have to flash the original modem back to enable all the networks. And that's the problem, because the modem has to be compatible with the bootloader (or kernel resp.), so most likely a JB modem won't work with a KK bootloader/kernel.

I would wait for an official statement before bricking phones though.
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
good to know.

I didn't think of that, and reading it makes me realize you are probably right.

Its a "spare" phone which is technically broken (ear speaker is broken, hands-free and speaker phone work fine). I currently use it to test new lollipop ROMS (JBBL based ie Vanir only) without touching my daily (I have two XT905's)

As this thread attests, we are getting the run around for the update.:rolleyes: The thought has also occurred to me, once we get the KK bootloader, I have assumed we should be OK to flash XT907 KKBL specific ROM's right? :fingers-crossed:
[Droid RAZR M General] lem22:
Yes. Actually we even do have the KK bootloader already (the XT907 one), it's just the modem that's missing. But to get the modem we need the official update anyway. :)

Either from Telstra or Motorola.
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
Was the model XT905 sold in any other country other than Australia?
[Droid RAZR M General] Faateh:
Waiting for the update too. The bootloader is in the sbl* files (& partitions) I think.

I tried to flash the XT907 KitKat on XT905, it worked fine except the modem of XT907-KKBL; no signals. Flashing modem of XT905-JBBL made it to bootloop.

IMO these phones are quite brick proof from software point of view. But you never know. :)

Thanks a lot, but I run across another link, installed, and can return it as TWRP backup in topic ) Boot+system, as usual. OK, plus fastboot variant. Set is not complete, but will do for KitKat bootloader.

Radio didn't worked for me (
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
A couple of questions.

1. by "and can return it as TWRP backup" do you mean you can simply flash this KitKat update using a standard TWRP restore of this file?

2. can we return back to a JBBL using a previous personal TWRP restore, or do we need to flash the original JB ROM? (to return to JBBL)

I am interested in testing the new KKBL ROM but also hope for an easy back-out if things go bad.
[Droid RAZR M General] Faateh:
The link I posted is dead. I will download the OTA again to my phone, as during first try the update failed.
[Droid RAZR M General] Faateh:
OTA gave Update failed first time. Happened again. Anyone knows how to update from OTA .zip file because it is different from standard flashable files.
[Droid RAZR M General] Faateh:
OTA failed to update from stock recovery, adb sideload method from recovery, from TWRP or from System Updates.
[Droid RAZR M General] s5610:
I mean, I took from topic OTA, and return TWRP backup here in exchange, as a reward for the OTA link )

But, yes, procedure is standard. Go to TWRP, put backup in right folder (named by s/n of your phone), Restore.

TWRP backups doesn't contain bootloader. You should flash stock JB 4.1.2 ROM from Telstra, if you want to go back. Here it is, btw. And you should be on KK, if you want to make use of TWRP backup uploaded by me.

No one can switch between JB and KK w/o flashing related bootloader!

I can make complete Telstra ROM 4.4.2 (as that stock 4.1.2 one ) for easy install, but it will be unlocked bootloaders only, cause images will lack signature. Locked should go through OTA. Or we all can wait for official 4.4.2 RSD/SBF release from Telstra.
[Droid RAZR M General] Faateh:
I have unlocked booloader. ( I think I have an engineerning sample device).

Can you tell me the procedure roughly.
[Droid RAZR M General] meric04:
I managed to get it to apply using stock recovery - the trick is to flash the KK recovery image (extracted from the OTA zipfile) first.

I've got my phone running stock KK without any issues, but I've not been able to then apply CM12.1 over the top (it just boot loops). Also, does anyone have a reliable recovery image that works on the KK bootloader on an XT905? I've tried the XT907 TWRP image - which seems to work, but doesn't display on-screen properly (overlapping menu screens), and the XT907 CWM image doesn't work at all.
[Droid RAZR M General] DiamondJohn:
Maybe the following post at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62000416&postcount=232 may be of some assistance.
[Droid RAZR M General] :
FYI, it's kind of risky to do this, although it may work - what I am worried about is the bootloader signature (due to RPM loader's signature tables extracted from tz.mbn file), if they don't match, brick is possible, although if your phone is unlocked already, it's clearly possible to recover from that since there is Qualcomm tool built-in, inside the XT905 first-stage bootloader.

The files for second stage bootloader goes like this:

emmc_appsboot.mbn

fsg.mbn

NON-HLOS.bin

- You will need to extract Linux kernel (boot.img) from any KKBL ROMs (such as XT907 KKBL BlissPop and CM12), and flash KKBL-compatible recovery. Also, you can extract the second-stage BIOS files from the XT907 4.4.2 OTA image zip.

However, don't touch those files (first-stage bootloader):

sblx.mbn (three separate SBL loaders which the on-die zero stage bootloader loads)

rpm.mbn

gpt.bin (Don't alter this - it has security keys as well as SSD partition information)

tz.mbn (This is a Trustzone encryption hash table wrapper, as well as ARMv4 Trustzone processor firmware)

As long as you only flash second stage bootloader, you ought be good. Test it on a discarded XT905 first as I had a funny feeling, that we ought test this before we are to proceed. If it doesn't brick, then Australian RAZR M ought be good to get new ROMs, owing to the fact everyone are jumping off JBBL development bandwagons.

EDITED: I might publish the second-stage BIOS flasher zip if so.
[Droid RAZR M General] meric04:
Thanks for that. TWRP 2.8.6.2 seems to work much better.
[Droid RAZR M General] meric04:
Ok - finally got adb working during a boot of CM12.1, and the boot issue is SELinux permission related (nothing can write to /data).

I managed to get it to boot by temporarily disabling SELinux, but that clearly isn't a solution to the problem.

I'm a little out of my depth on the whole SELinux on Android thing. Anyone got any thoughts on how this might relate to the slightly different KitKat bootloader that shipped with the XT905 stock rom update?
