[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam.hinsley:
I have run clockworkmod alongside CM11 for some time but i decided to install the touch version of CWM from Rom Manager. After the install I hit the restart into recovery button but every time the phone attempts to start it gets no further than the recovery booting screen, crashes and the phone restarts only to do it again. I cannot break this loop. All I want to do is get back to CM. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Reflash your recovery. It'll fix whatever happened.

Hi,

I used Miui for a long time on my phone. Now with the launch of the MiPad and the beta build for the nexus 7 (2013 wifi) is there any chance to port this to our g pad as well? I'm not a dev so I don't know what is possible and what not, it's only a question because I like Miui very much for its simplicity :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yub:
I did wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition from main menu and

format /sdcard, format /system, format /cache, format /data, format /boot from mounts and storage menu.

when i clicked restart recovery menu, my phone opened with blue screen.

right now, when i pressed sound up and down with power, it opens with pink screen. in this	scenario i am using USB cable to connect phone to PC however my PC doesn't find the phone.

any help will be appreciated.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Teg8:
Well it's obvious that you have blue screen. You have empty /boot and /system partitions. What for did you format them anyway? What was you trying to do?

Do you try pink screen on linux or windows?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yub:
i just tried to setup new rom so why i did it but i'm new to all this.

i tried pink screen on windows via USB however it couldnt work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Teg8:
I'm not some kind of wise developer, either. I just read couple of topics before changing ROM in my device and I don't actually understand everything that is going on with my device, so my advices wouldn't be so trustworthy as the others ;)

But if I was you first thing I would do is full backup with linux. If something goes even worse - you can always come back to the state that the phone is now. But be careful, do tutorial step by step, precisely.

Step 3 of this tutorial ("dmesg" command output) should also give you the answer if your pink screen is working properly.

What ROM did you try to install?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] IamsKs:
drivers

Bro please update huawei drivers on pc. Uninstall all drivers with revo uninstaller, remove all registry entries with it then install again. then connect your phone in pink screen mode. this worked for me one time when same problem happened to me.

Hey Guys

Bought a new phone now but trying to get this one going anyways.

It's a Vodafone HTC One Mini, with the following details:

Problem is, I can't get out of fastboot. I cannot get into recovery and it appears that the phone is DEAD!

I've been trying and reading to find a way to recover the device. Basically, battery died and this happened.

If anyone could point me in the right direction. Bootloader is unlocked with S-ON HBoot version 2.21.0000.

Any assistance appreciated to get this thing going!

I just don't know what to do any more - all help appreciated.

Hopefully just trying to get it back to stock. But any firmware is good for the minute!

Hey guys

On my SM-N900W8 Note 3, I've had it running a rooted stock rom.

Yesterday I decided to try out Gummy Rom....did a backup in TWRP.....I also backed up all my apps with Titanium just to be safe.. wiped data....installed Gummy Rom....it just wasn't for me.

Wiped data again......restored my stock rooted rom that I've been using this whole time........phone booted up without a problem...SUCCESS! At least I thought success....started to notice some errors with some of the apps I have...

Wasn't able to get any of my snapchats....swiftkey was giving me errors.....then I tired to save a picture and saw that it had failed....strange

I Have several gigs available on my internal and external SD card....

Opening up Titanium....I can see that all folders, internal AND external say "This folder is not writable."

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

HTC Desire 610 Root

i rooted my phone with this app

http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=1314#downloads

it helps a lot and my phone was rooted in less than 10 minutes
[HTC Desire 610] readmanr:
To point you in the right direction...

First thing with a HTC is to understand S-ON / S-OFF vs Unlocked / Locked Boot-loader vs Root.

S-ON / S-OFF is Security, and unique to HTC phones.

With the phone S-ON you can still flash a new kernel (boot.img) and flash new ROM's such as Cyanogenmod (and many more!).

With the phone S-OFF you can flash things like the radio, change the CID (Carrier ID) and more, but being unable to S-OFF is not the end of the world.

Bootloader Locked / Unlocked.

With a locked bootloader, you can still gain root, however depends heavily on the exploit and version of android. A locked bootloader is the main restriction on any device.

With an unlocked bootloader, you can now flash custom recoveries (or just boot into them). Flash custom ROM's, and Flash custom Kernels.

HTCdev.com will allow you to unlock your bootloader by following the instructions on there.

Root = Root, i.e. performing commands or having apps perform functions as the systems Superuser (Administrator) account on your device.

You can have your device S-ON, unlock your device, flash a custom ROM, and not be rooted. It's just most custom ROM's ship with root enabled.

Hopefully the above explains (very basically) the differences between a few terms.

And you most certainly do not need to flash a custom recovery in order to install a custom ROM.

[HTC Desire 610] torchwolfery:
in all honesty

Unless you really really need it to be unlocked I would honestly advise against unlocking and rooting for this device... when i got mine I loved how smooth the original rom was, but being a long time samsung user I was used to flashing anything with minimal impact. But right now this device has 0 development happening and most people who have unlocked and rooted the EU version of this phone have ended up regretting it as there is no way to restore the original eu firmware...

If you do decided to do it please please please make a full backup of the eu rom before hand... and if you do god i think so many members would love you for posting it on here

but in my own opinion I wouldn't go through with the process again...
[HTC Desire 610] p3tey.cRo:
[MENTION=4387411]torchwolfery[/MENTION] we're sharing exactly the same opinion
[HTC Desire 610] readmanr:
Hi Guys,

As I mentioned in my brief explanation of the different terms of rooting / unlocking etc.

You can unlock, and root, while still keeping the stock recovery, and stock ROM.

This means you can root the original ROM to use root apps, and have root, but then simply factory reset to go back to full stock (albeit with an unlocked bootloader).

When you unlock your boot-loader the device will do a factory reset, take a backup at this point, by booting into TWRP (but you don't need to flash TWRP permanently onto the phone.

Instead of >fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Simply type >fastboot boot recovery.img

Your device will load TWRP, allow you to do a full backup, install superuser / supersu.

Once you exit the recovery, your phone still contains the stock recovery.img, stock boot.img, and stock system.

Hope that helps some others before they flash recovery.img (no need!) and then flash an AT&T ROM on the international version.
[HTC Desire 610] torchwolfery:
thanks we know this now and we are not trying to somehow blame you but the fact is that unlocking the bootloader and rooting has caused some issues for us on the international versions... your tutorial works great and gave us what we wanted but sadly there have been downsides on the international version... but now I've manged to get mine fully functioning now

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackHanAnLG:
Hey guys!

I just wanted to start off by saying I already have a 64GB Oneplus One, and I received an invite today to buy another, now, I love the oneplus one, but battery life, on my device, isnt that great. ive tried all the steps etc to help it.

My oneplus is also dented and is fading on the back ( ive only had it for 1.5 months )

So my question is this, Should I sell my oneplus one for a Quoted £252 for the state its in and buy a new one for £269, so in essence £17 to get a newer one which isnt damaged :P

The reason why im thinking about this is, I want to own this device for the foreseeable future, but the more it dents and fades it makes me want to get rid of it and stick with my Z2 or something else. What do you think? Should I go through the hassle? :P
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaoloMix09:

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Sounds like a good plan. Buy a new one, as what Paulo suggested... buy a case / screen protector (screen protector not really needed but if ur a person whos had a history with devices being dented etc etc, then i'd recommend to get a screen protector)

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Huh? Why not use a screen protector? Something like the Nillkin 9H tampered glass screen protector only costs about $10, that's a damn sight cheaper than replacing your display, and prevents you from having to go through OnePlus support, it's thin and it feels just like a glass digitizer does. What's the logical argument for not having one??

I put mine in my pocket regularly and before I put my Diztronic case on it I never noticed any fading of the feel of the sandstone texture. However, since putting my case on I've noticed a slight wearing towards the sides of the back, so it must be moving ever so slightly in the case.

The worst thing that happens if you crack your Opo screen is that it'll become unusable as digitizer will break too. I've seen many cracked screens with working digitizer, but opo has it differently. So, considering this, I'd double protect an Opo, even if you hold it like a baby.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xtbricker:
I flashed slimkat rom and then I got bored and flashed cm11 but the phone did not boot up. After the first M, it stucked at blank screen.

Then I flashed 4.1.2 JB en.retail with RSD and it also stucked. With luck i was able to boot it up by pressing BP tools and I now letting it to charge up.

I erased CID with backup before so it gives error at the start.

Edit: Now i am going to root it and try to install slimkat again.

What do you guys think should I do now?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xtbricker:
I fixed it after hours of trying stuff.

If your xt910 does not boot the ROM and stuck in the blank screen after the first M logo. What you do is, with the help of RSD, flash the 4.1.2 and if it again stuck there, restart your phone by holding Vol- and power buttons and after the screen flashes hold vol- and vol+. Select the last choice "BP Tools" and it should boot the newly flashed ROM. Root it. Install BMM. Re-flash the kernel. Reboot. That would do the job.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zosprog:
Hi from a new member in trouble!

I foolishly thought I could update my wife's mini pro to 2.3 so that she could use BT SmartTalk as I tried SmartTalk on 2.1 and it doesn't work.

I rooted the phone ok and installed xrecovery, chargemon and busybox as described on many threads.

Then Powered off, rebooted and went into xrecovery to do a backup which was successful.

I then used the update function in xrecovery to install a ROM update who's filename is update-cm-7.1.0-X10MiniPro-signed.zip after having removed the "assert" statement from the update.script file and rebuilding the zip. The update process seemingly finished successfully.

Did a full factory reset and cleared all the cache's and battery log.

Told xrecovery to reboot and that's when it all went t*ts up!

The phone sticks on the white "sony ericsson" logo and won't boot into xrecovery while pressing the back button so I can't restore the original ROM.

It won't switch off and the only way to switch it off is to remove the battery.

I tried to recover using PC Companion but it says it has no software for my phone.

I also tried the hard-reset by powering on and holding all combinations of the other buttons to no avail.

Using S1tool "identify" function it says it is an unrecognised certificate.

This is the second time this has happened, the first time I sent it back to the seller claiming it was faulty and he fixed it but I can't do that again!

Can anyone please tell me how I can recover the phone, it must be possible as the seller managed it.

Many thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tifosi77:
Starting about two weeks ago, Google Maps app would begin launching itself periodically after opening any new apps. Then I started getting a notice when Hangouts was trying to update that "The package file is invalid" or something like that. That eventually became apps never finishing updates. This is especially noticeable with Google apps (Hangouts, Newsstand, Play, etc); they get to some percentage of completion and then just stop. (The percentage ranges between 37% [Newsstand] and 91% [Chrome]).

Cleared the Play Store cache and data and attempted to reboot, but the device would not shutdown. It cycled through the various shutdown prompts, then the shutdown spinning icon appeared.... and it stayed like that until the battery drained. Re-started after charging, nothing was fixed. Tried shutting down again, same problem. The only way it becomes responsive again is to hit the little hard reset button.

Did a full hard reset to factory spec, none of the apps will download updates at all. And when the device is fully booted I get a barrage of error messages saying that various Google apps/services have stopped working. (i.e. "Unfortunately, Google Maps has stopped working." or "Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped working.")

Device is a stock 32gb TF700T running I think 4.2.1 JB, with a 32gb SD card to which nothing has been written.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
What do you mean by you did a "full hard reset"?

First, copy all data you don't want to loose off the tablet.

Then you can try to clear cache and data on everything Google. Go to Settings > Apps, swipe until you see All, then go to town: Maps, Hangouts, Services framework, Chrome, Play Store - the works.

Then go to Settings > Accounts and remove your Google account.

Reboot.

If it still hangs, try holding Power and Volume Down button together until the tablet boots into the bootloader menu.

You'll see 3 icons. Push Volume Down until "Wipe Data" is highlighted. Then press Volume Up.

It should reboot once it's done. If it returns you to the bootloader menu, use Volume Down to cycle to the Android, then hit Volume Up to boot the system.

If all that does not do it, you can manually reflash the Asus firmware or - even better - unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tifosi77:
First, thank you for taking the time to reply. I appreciate the help.

And for what it's worth, the problem as evolved since I posted this; now, as soon as I power or wake up the device and enter my PIN, I start getting error massages that a variety of Google services have stopped working. Always Maps first.

This is what I meant by 'full hard reset'. Apologies for using confusing or incorrect verbiage.

Okay, gave this a try. Still would not shut down on its own, and I had to hit the little reset button on the side. Got back in, added one Google account, attempted to update apps, and I get an error saying: "Update for [app name] could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC.S-7:AEC-7])" So I deleted that account and added another one. This time the Play Store wouldn't even show me the installed apps. White screen, spinning circle of sadness.

I don't know if this makes a difference, but I did not indicate in my original post that I have three different Google accounts on this device. But only one of them is the one used for downloading apps to this device.

If removing anything Google doesn't help, I would start fresh: Reflash the firmware following the steps under Alternative Install Method here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1755576

[Asus Transformer TF700] tifosi77:
I attempted to reflash using the steps outlined at that URL, but to no avail. The update isn't recognized (perhaps because I'm already on that build number?), and the rar file does not launch.

At this point, I have two options: Install a custom ROM (can't really hurt, right?), or just get a new device. Considering ASUS is not updating the firmware anymore, meaning 4.2.1 is the highest OS version I'll ever run on it, I'm sort of leaning towards a new device. But I'll try flashing a custom ROM and see what that gets me.
