[General Questions and Answers] iToo MasteR:
Hey guys, I have just received a fastboot/factory cable a few hours ago and have been trying to unlock my Kindle Fire HD on the current Amazon Software.

The Kindle has been bricked for about two to three weeks and has been collecting dust.

I have had the Kindle replaced (refurbished from Amazon). Device was working for weeks fine on root. I wanted to put a custom ROM on the Kindle and I was putting the TWRP img on there and something went wrong, maybe the MD5 or something? Not too sure of all this technical stuff but I followed what RootJunky did on YouTube. Anyway when I turn on the Kindle it comes up with the orange Kindle Fire message and loops repeatedly.

I downloaded the KFHD_SRTv1.3.5 project to restore the img on my kindle hoping that was going to make the kindle new and usable again. (Not sure if it will I'm not that great at Android I'm a rookie) I put the ADB and Fastboot files in system32 as a page on XDA said to when the program said 'fastboot is not recognized' etc and now when I press 5 to check the fastboot status it is stuck on 'waiting for device' even though my kindle is in fastboot mode.

All help is appreciated and I have downloaded android sdk if that is needed, and I would like as much help as possible.

I accept this is my fault and accept that having a bricked kindle is the consequence so none of that thanks.

Hi! What ROM and kernel are you on? Stock TouchWiz 4.4.2, rooted, or what?

Have you tried backing up all your apps with Titanium Backup, performing a factory reset so that all data is wiped and starting from scratch? If the problem doesn't happen before you restore your apps, maybe it's one of your apps. Try restoring just what you absolutely need to a little bit at a time to try to narrow down if an app is causing the problem.

[General Questions and Answers] melvaka:
Hi,

I bought a UK Vodafone Smart Mini (Alcatel OT-V875 Mediatek MT6575) with no battery and no back - sold

as is - no history.

Batteries are kinda expensive for this phone (ALi014A 4-terminal), so I've been trying to see if it is a

working phone before I risk buying a battery.

If I plug in a charger, the notification led comes on solid blue, but pressing the POWER button

does nothing.

If I attach a charged Li-Ion 3.7 v 2-terminal battery (4.1 v measured) taken from another phone to the

phone's + and - contacts with clips and press+hold the POWER button, nothing happens. The blue led

stays off.

If I attach the phone to a PC via USB with no battery, the Mediatek preloader device appears

then disappears from the device manager. It does this every time I unplug and plug the phone

into the PC.

If I attach the phone to a PC via USB with just the 2 terminals connected to a battery, the

Mediatek preloader appears and disappears the first time, but if I unplug and plug the phone in again,

no USB devices are found. The blue led comes on as soon as I attach the USB lead and stays on

after I have unplugged it.

If I install the Mediatek preloader VCOM drivers, start SP Flash Tool in readback with this

[attachment 1]

readback map and connect the phone to the PC with USB, I get a complete download of the flash memory

- it takes about 40 minutes.

I have used bgcngm's mtk unpack tools in Cygwin to successfully unpack the BOOTIMG, RECOVERY and LOGO

images and they all look like Linux stuff, but I have no idea whether they are b0rked by

file misconfigurations within the packed image.

I have dumped the phone's cache space (0x3da4c000 to 0x40000000) and this is nearly all zeros

( compresses from 39534592B to 12055B ), so it looks like the last owner did a cache wipe before

selling it.

Here's how the other parts of the image look.

[attachment 2]

So my question is - does this phone _need_ a 4-terminal battery to boot ?
[General Questions and Answers] melvaka:
[SOLVED]

So I worked it out myself - this phone won't boot with 'ON'switch at all with just a 2-terminal battery. Reading datasheet of Mediatek and Ricoh PMIC chip I see the other 2 pins need to be connected with resistors - easy.

Now it boots.
[General Questions and Answers] g_a_v:
Me too

Hi,

I have the same issue and intend to use the phone as a security cam and so don't need battery power. If you could post the pins/resistor values that would be great!
[General Questions and Answers] melvaka:
10k to ground - pins from the pic on any auction site selling the right battery. 4th pin is not some crypto-authentication anti-counterfeit nonsense, despite what some sites claim - this is a cheeeeep phone !
[General Questions and Answers] HypnoT0AD:
Hi, I wanted to just double check the pins before hooking up the wires to my phone, as I don't want to kill my phone ;)

[IMG="battery"]http://i.imgur.com/7dgQiSul.jpg[/IMG]

Assume pin1 is on the left and pin4 is on the right, I'm guessing this is how to wire it up:

Pin 1: 10k to Battery -ve

Pin 2: Battery -ve

Pin 3: 10k to Battery -ve

Pin 4: Battery +ve

Is this correct?

Finally where can I find the Ricoh PMIC chip datasheet? I have another phone (VF-675) which uses a similar battery and would like to power it also without the official battery which is TLi014A2 which is a the same size and capacity as the TLi014A1. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] melvaka:
Pins - yes

PMIC data sheet from Ricoh

I see no-one hits the 'Thanks' button much in this forum.
[General Questions and Answers] HypnoT0AD:
Perfect, thanks, I found the button also, I'm new here :) I managed to power the phone from an 18650 and it works great, looks a little ugly, I cut up a SD to Micro SD card adaptor in order to press against the phones battery contacts.

I went thru the datasheet also, a lot of it was over my head, but I have a similar Mediatek phone (alcatel 4030x) which has similar problems with the battery swelling up so I think I'll try that with an 18650 as it seems to use the same PMIC.

[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StridAst:
OK, I wish I had pictures to show, but I have none. Sorry. (My phone is my only camera)

So a couple weeks ago I managed to break my digitizer. Thought I would post my experience with replacing it, to better inform those daring enough to try, and to warn off those without the tools to do so.

Tools needed: screwdriver (Phillips head), something to open the case, and aheat gun, and lots of time and patience.

First I ordered in a new screen replacement. It was a touchscreen/LCD package deal. This one: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orig...-mi-Assembly-with-front-frame/1593196482.html

Then opened the Sim card tray and took out the two screws that must be removed to take the back cover off

Once the back cover is removed, there are to covers to remove, 3 screws on the bottom cover, and I believe 8 on the top cover. Once the covers are removed, there are 2 more holding in the motherboard.

Now for the annoying revelation. You don't swap the screen, you swap everything else to the new screen. Seriously, the frame that the screen is mounted to has everything that isn't screwed to it, glued to it. This is where the heat gun is needed. Heat the parts glued down, and gently pull them up. Then stick them to the new frame. EVERYTHING must be swapped.

The entire process took me about 2 hours to work through and figure out. I broke a connector on the motherboard to the high frequency antenna on the left side of the battery. Phone works without it, but I list 1 signal bar everywhere I go now. I also managed somehow to break the backlight for the buttons at the bottom of the screen, and lastly, I somehow messed up the back camera. Its no longer focused right. I don't see much difference in overall quality between the front and back cameras now.

Will update with links later, and attempt the borrow a camera to get some decent pics to show what all is involved. I've replaced screens before on other devices, but never anything anywhere this complicated before.

So I'm currently on holiday in Spain and I've only been here a day and found the hotel/apartment thing I'm staying in has wifi! But... I have to pay a stupid price for it so I hunted down the nearest free hotspot and it's a good 200m away and the wifi is terrible (2ish minutes to load a Google page) and constantly disconnects so I've decided to attempt to hack my way into the hotels wifi, it's the type of wifi that has no password so it says it's open on my phone but then when I load up the Internet it presents me with a login page and prices (user, pass, voucher code) I've been Googling for a while now on how to hack into it to get free wifi but I haven't found a direct guide, my phone is a Sony Xperia T (Lp30) and is unrooted, I have no computer access here, I was wondering if someone could give me an easy and direct tutorial on how I can get free wifi off of them for the rest of my stay, I don't mind downloading apps ect, from what I've read it's a kinda of mac sniff and spoof thing I need to do but I'm unsure, I don't want to keep walking down here to be unable to even load Facebook so can anyone help me out? I'm going to post this and then head back to the hotel and I'll walk down either in a few hours or tomorrow so I'll be unable to reply to anyone so don't expect me to reply instantly, hopefully it's possible for me to get this wifi thing sorted ASAP, thanks guys I look forward to your replys :)

From a bit of search i did HTC__332 is a chilean carrier with version x.xx.599.x

I haven't seen any stock nandroid and recovery for this version.

If you can find stock x.xx.599.x rom and recovery you can flash them to return to stock and receive the OTA when htc/carrier release it.

Or you can try to s-off, change to superCID and flash whatever you like.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maopesu:
OTA with SuperCID

Thank you stathis95194 for your quick respond, I have Stock Rom already on my phone, I didn't install any Custom rom yet, I did a nandroid backup but still I have installed Custom Recovery and I want to get back to stock recovery. Some forum said that HTC_332 is a mexican CID, I purchased my phone on Colombia (Unlocked, no carrier) How can I get the Stock Recovery back?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stathis95194:
That's the real challenge. I haven't seen a x.xx.599.x stock recovery anywhere

Edit I'm not even sure if they release any OTA. Reading some old M7 posts they are very slow in releasing OTA updates. Maybe s-off and superCID is better for you. Since you haven't updated at all maybe you will be lucky with firewater which is free

its a nexus 4 with KitKat 4.4.4 or whatever is newest.

I took it to t-mobile to make sure that my simcard wasn't faulty. it works fine.

He told me my phone is not saving the APN and won't connect and he can't do anything because at the time it was rooted.

I have since unrooted and performed OEM lock via Nexus Root Toolkit.

Now, it still says the same thing.

For a split second, it will recognize the T-mobile network and it gives me a signal, then it dissapears and says Emergency Calls Only.

It recognizes that I have voicemails and texts waiting via *#*#4363 or whatever command that is.

If anyone can help that'd be amazing.

Try this zip for root:

Even though i don't think you really need root at this point since you will flash a stock rom afterwards and lose root again.

ah...the stock ROM you downloaded is from a TWRP backup right? It's not flashable by recovery and i'm not sure if you can sideload it.

I think you will need to extract it and copy it to your external sdcard so that you will then restore from TWRP
