Hey guys i tried to update the firmware on my GT-P1000, and managed to soft bricked it , its stuck in the loop. i cant find any stock firmware or anything all links i found are dead , have you guys got any ideas ?

originally i wanted to follow this http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/galaxytab7...ellybean-update-cyanogenmod101-nightly-466906

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BMN2205:
Hello there im not shure if this will help you but if you can flash the 2.3.6 and then to the 4.1.2 and get that working it might be possible to flash to the 4.2.2 , without knowing for shure i think that might be some issues "jumping" too far at one time like going from 2.2 to 4.2.2 ( just an example ) ............ as you can read in my post about a different problem + boot loop in my post http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab/help/galaxy-tab-gt-p1000-black-screen-lights-t2900334 i "think" i might have solved my boot loop problem when trying to flash 2.3.6 by flashing the dbdata file before alowing the tablet to boot into android as showed in the VIO vidoe on youtube.... so what im trying to say is......

try to get 2.3.6 working on your tablet by following.................... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuAgACCWdw8

and then root it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qrwDDd205o

and then flashing to 4.1.2.......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOnhvCcJUKw

and when you have 4.1.2 working you might try to flash to 4.2.2 ?

i hope this helps you. ( there might be a simpler sollution to boot loop problem but dont know for shure :eek:) )

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xknobi:
One of the chat app using mic to record voice can't pick any voice signal after some random time. Sound recorder also don't pick any signal anymore. But after phone reboot, it works normal again. Tried 2 RAZRs, all the same. Tested ROM is "GZR Validus_v6.1 KK".

I have read in this forum that some other people also have problem with the mic under KK, although those involving having used a headphone, I guess these may be related.

Any fix for this yet?

Does the stock KK have this problem? Or other 3rd party KK ROMs?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xknobi:
No one has an idea of this problem? Maybe I should forget KK and keep using JB based ROMs...

Or you can use JBBL based JB ROM, such as Nexesque, quite stable with this phone!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koboltzz:
Dear xda members,

I am trying to build my own cyanogenmod 11, so android kitkat 4.4.4 for my smartphone -> LG G2 (Verizon)

I am able to build from source thanks to many guides here in forum. But I need to merge some changes from JackpotClavin on github.

Reading many guides about how to work with github, most, if not every guide presume the author was creating projects that I will be able to fetch. But there are no projects from JackpotClavin. So I don't get it to work like I wish ;)

How do I merge changes from github to my source the easy way?

Prerequisites:

Ubuntu x64

Source downloaded from cm11

I am able to build from source
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koboltzz:
Okay I managed to clone the repo I need locally in dir named TESTcm.

So how do I tell 'brunch' command, that he should use for example

'

TESTcm/android_device_lge_vs980

' instead of '

device/lge/vs980

'

and

'

TESTcm/proprietary_vendor_lge

' instead of '

vendor/lge/vs980/proprietary

' ?

If I use roomservice.xml in local_manifests (and change the corresponding paths), I am not able to repo sync anymore

Edit: And if I create other xml files with new remotes, the changes won't get merged
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwade79:
I have very minimal experience in this, but from what I do know, you have to point the link in room_service.xml that fetches the directory to what you want to clone, not change the local directory. This avoids having to clone the repo as well. Here is an example:

you would change:

<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_msm8660-common" path="kernel/samsung/msm8660-common" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />

to:

<project name="Cl3Kener/HERC-KERNELS" path="kernel/samsung/msm8660-common" remote="github" revision="uber-kk44" />

then you just repo sync and everything will automatically sync and update.

There is an EXCELLENT explanation and tutorial for this in this thread:

Hi,

I installed the ROM: http://xdaforums.com/canvas-turbo/development/pxz2-4-3-7-purexperia-z2-a250-clones-t2866549

however when trying to go back to stock rom I used the CWM recovery and used the "wipe all" function.

to put the zip of the stock room did not work , and restarted the device. After that the phone went into infinite loop boot and not entered in the CWM recovery.

I tried this procedure : http://gujnaukari.blogspot.com.br/2014/02/how-to-update-stock-rom-on-micromax.html

I think I am in the same boat. I have a 16GB version that I put KitKat on tried to go back to the 4.2.1 rom and now its stuck in a boot loop and will not hold a charge. Windows doesn't recognize it anymore.
[Micromax Canvas Turbo A250] Stealthy_C:
So riddle me this. Phone dies, does... Will not power on, will not stay powered off to charge enough to even be able to power on. So it was stuck in a power cycle loop while plugged in. But would never stay on long enough to get into recovery. I ended up leaving it unplugged for about a week or so then plugged it back in for heck of it and bam. Damn thing started to hold a charge. I don't know why. But plugged it right into the charger and on the screen came up the same battery charging icon I had seen before while it was power cycling. Let it sit for a day on the charger and it fine now.

dunno...
[Moto X General] czuppa:
I feel sorry for scarsity of stock based Moto X roms. There are a lot of CM, AOSP, based roms without the Motorola Touchless control. I love and use them, but in my Galaxy!

In my opinion, the main reason to use a Moto X is the Touchless Control and Moto Voice. I dont´t understand a Moto X rom without these features. But, I insist, this is my opinion and I don´t want to generate a controversy.
[Moto X General] redeuxx:
What features in touchless control do you use that isn't really just Google Now? I simply just use Nova Launcher to respond to OK Google.
[Moto X General] me myself and i:
i know exactly what you mean i had the same issues until i discovered exposed modules that literally make my moto x as customizable as i want to. and i use nova launcher on top of it all.
[Moto X General] melo1819:
I use "OK google now" when I can't find my phone in my car or on the couch. I just say "find my phone" and it starts beeping. Making really easy to find. Can't do that with custom roms.
[Moto X General] aviwdoowks:
On all the msm8960 generation phones custom ROMs are not worth the loss of stock features.
[Moto X General] Verttex:
I've been using the Krypton ROM for a few days now and really liking it. I need active display, but I've heard that there are some third parties that have it as well.

Maybe I'll flash cm11 or paranoid android later
[Moto X General] mtcrew:
They don't use the low voltage processors like stock moto x does
[Moto X General] redeuxx:
The two main features I wanted from a custom ROM was active notifications and voice features. I feel the features the custom ROM I have has now does a decent job with that without noticeable impact on battery.
[Moto X General] :
It's probably a stock based rom. So you would be using the same moto features with no real battery loss. ?

---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 AM ----------

The cm based ones don't have the moto features.
[Moto X General] MikeyNick:
I spent a long time debating this myself. I really really like the stock active display. Not crazy about the touchless control, but i had used it from time to time, but damn that active display! However, the benefits of an AOSP based ROM eventually drew me to the dark side. My shift mostly revolved around ART. There are a few features I simply cannot live without, for example making the status bar a brightness slider, having quick pulldown on the toggles, and a kill all in the recent-apps. In stock based ROMs, you simply cannot have these without xposed, and with xposed, you simply cannot have ART.

By this point (4.4.4), ART really has grown into quite the tantalizing runtime. I don't always necessarily notice faster performance of apps, but I certainly experience way better battery life. The other day I had been on battery for about 24-25 hours, bluetooth on the entire time, wifi on (but had been traveling around so also connecting to LTE), maybe ~2 hours screen on time, and i was still at 25% battery remaining. That's just silly. I couldn't get that with Dalvik.

So in the end, I had to choose between having the brightness slider / quick pulldown / kill all and be able to run ART, or have active display and touchless controls and be able to run ART. AcDisplay on the market isn't a bad replacement for active display (perfect for pocket mode, just isn't good for the whole "rock your phone or wave in front of it to see notifications", which is a bummer, but for what it is it's quite good). Dragon Mobile Assistant can do everything touchless control can do, and is way better at recognizing speech, but it does come at a battery cost (still, was able to get about 16 hours of battery life with its "always listening mode" enabled). Now, add on the gravy of being able to theme cm based ROMs (I'm currently on Carbon), and really for me there was no looking back. When Moto Voice and the new active display gets released for our gen phone, I may take another look (and if you need stock based to get everything out of the moto 360, which i'll be getting soon), but for now I'm all AOSP and ART XD
[Moto X General] czuppa:
With GravityBox stock rom also have brightness slider / quick pulldown / kill all. I run ART in my other phones, I don´t feel tantalized wiith it in my Moto X.

I think Motorola has done a great job with battery life in Moto X, a great job in many other things. Non stock make this phone worse. In my opinion, of course.

I recall that I love aosp roms (I use Dirty in my Galaxy) So, it not my intencion to underappreciate them
[Moto X General] redeuxx:
CM based Carbon ROM. The active notifications isn't stock, but it's more feature rich and like I said, no noticeable effect on battery.
[Moto X General] Verttex:
Examples of 'rich' features for the non-stock Active Notifications?
[Moto X General] jmcdonald58:
I use both and would love to see some Blur based development to go along with all the CM/AOSP development
[Moto X General] redeuxx:
I'm not going to list every menu item. You are free to install the ROM yourself if you wish to find out.

1) To extract from rom upgrade (nk.nbf):

alpinenbfdecode.pl -r nk.nbf nk.nb
mkdir files ; rdmsflsh.pl -d files nk.nb

2) To extract from device, follow instructions here, but replace "FLASHDR" for "TrueFFS" in Universal (instructions are for Hermes).

Then you get "File02.raw" which contains dumped imgfs, files can be extracted either with mamaich viewimgfs.exe or itsme rdmsflsh.pl.

3) If none of the above works, try to dump the files from the device using mamaich TestWM5.exe or Buzz's grab_it!.

Good luck :)

Thankyou... just another info..please.

I would like to extract file fro a complete German rom.

I am trying with nk.nbf extracted from UNI_QTEK_13096_185_10900_GER_Ship.exe .

Why did you suggest to me to use "alpinenbfdecode" i have an Universal.

I decode my nbf files with

is this wrong?

Sorry for my questions but i have not Perl on my pc and i would like to know if is realy necessary to install it.

So just for learning... can you tell me why is wrong the operations that i am doing?

Thankyou very much!

Bye
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pof:
alpine, magican, universal... they use the same NBF format version, so the script is also valid to decode universal NBF files.

This produces a decoded file (.nb), same as if you would run "alpinenbfdecode.pl" with -d parameter (decode), but I suggested you to use it with -r which outputs a RAW file, because rdmsflsh.pl expects a raw file and not a decoded file.

AFAIK the decoded file contains a header while the raw file doesn't, in the German Qtek ROM you said, the header looks like this:

00000010 51 54 45 4b 5f 31 30 32 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 |QTEK_102 |

Probably someone more experienced with the formats can tell you the exact differences, otherwise if you know a bit of programming you can look at the program's source and try to figure out yourself :)

Try the other methods which do not involve using perl, if you don't success doing what you want then install perl, it's just 5 minutes to do it and you'll benefit from many .pl applications from itsme... the process to install it and all the needed modules is explained on the wiki page I pointed you before :)

Sorry I don't know for sure, probably you are using an encoded file and the program you use to extract the files from it expects a raw file, I guess you can use prepare_imgfs.exe to fix this, but I'm not sure... you should better experiment with the tools until you accomplish your goal :)

Actually, it would be interesting to know what is the it's the impact (if any)of the cooperation between Waves and Wolfson ( http://www.analog-eetimes.com/en/mo...-technologies.html?cmp_id=7&news_id=222905459 ) on the find 7, since the Snapdragon processor got its own DAC...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] dextructor:
This is my second device with Snapdragon DAC(first was a Xiaomi Mi-2) and both has a very good sound output with well balance equalizer and 0 distortion. MaxxAudio and DiracHD(in ColorOS) it's DSP and as well they put they signature efects and equalizer, this things I don't like. Comparing to Wolfson DAC in my Galaxy devices ,my iPhone 1st gen and my iPod I can't complain about quality and power output, of course they have diferent signatures of sound but every DAC and headphone has too.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] betoNL:
I am also not that impressed with this "award winning" maxxaudio thing and I wonder if it's any better than Viper4Android as a DSP manager.

I guess I just have to take my headsets to a showroom and run some tests on another device carrying probably the same Qualcomm built-in DAC such as the HTC 1 M8.

However it could be that the HTC got another amp implementation ......

.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] dextructor:
As a DSP manager MaxxAudio has a good performance and serve for his purpose that is general public and even Viper has a profile that's similar to it. Equalizers and DSP are fairly wrong because they aren't correct anything but adding something that they don't need used and makes even a great DAC like Wolfson sounds bad.
