I don't think that there is a kernel with this implemented. I don't know what you have for devices, but something like an N7 that people more frequently use for dash installs will likely have a rom/kernel that can do it. I know that the 1st generation N7 had a rom that was meant for charging while using usb host.

how to create logo.bin .... from...my choice of image?

i'm on ubuntu ... with gimp installed.....
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo.ank:
There is a detailed guide on droidforums.

In short, it goes like.

Open the base logo with PS or gimp.

Paste your logo over it.

Merge it.

(This part is tricky). You have to change the colors.Don't remember the values exactly. Google it.

However, there's a glitch. Using a custom logo also removes the battery charging logo(when powered off).

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcecchini:
Hi, I have this problem with my Xperia Z C6603.

I was using CM 10.2, wanted to go back to stock rom. So I headed here on XDA, found the proper guide, followed it (from a Mac), and ended up with... a non working phone. What happens is that the phone gets to the SONY splash logo, then blacks out and reloops there.

So I searched and searched, and tried to flash boot.img from Doomlord, which I did (from fastboot). I could now start TWRP recovery. So I put back on my SD card the CM zip file, and from TWRP tried to flash it. Problem is: approx 10 seconds into the flashing process, the screen goes black and the phone switches off.

So I tried the same with CWM recovery, using the boot.img from CM rom (flashed using flashtool). Again, I can enter CWM recovery, and approx 10 seconds into the flashing of the CM zip from SD card the screen goes black and the phone switches off.

Battery is OK, approx 82%.

It seems to me that there is a corrupt filesystem, and that flashing roms on it does not correct the corruption.

So I believe that the only thing to do is a low-level format of the internal ram of the phone.

Any ideas on how to perform that? Or any other ideas on how to revive the phone?

Thanks a lot

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Mario:
You need to buy BlackHat USB Motorola jig or knock one up from the junk / extra USB cord. This is the only way to force the phone to boot without battery. I had to buy mine just in case.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnsingh:
So that had worked for you a jig can I make one.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnsingh:
So a jig worked for you can I just make a jig please help me I am desperate help me fix my phone.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Mario:
Alright, you will have to get at the micro USB connector shell, and solder ID pin to red wire (5V + power). Some Blackberry USB cords has yellow wire inside which actually lead to the ID pin in small USB B plug, you just tie yellow wire to red wire.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnsingh:
Sorry I haven't been on thanks for the reply and will it put my phone into fastboot mode because my phone acts live a brick.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Mario:
You have to put it in fastboot manually but the bootloader will still boot because the Motorola factory jig basically bypass the battery. In fact, Motorola flash the phones this way before the batteries are even installed.

Also, I doubt you would have bricked your phone's bootloader so good by botched update since the second stage bootloader is usually small, about 10 MB in file size. You will usually be able to enter the fastboot menu with factory jig.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnsingh:
OK thanks so even though my phone won't power on after a update the jig will put it into fastboot mode and I will be able to flash software back in there. Is that what you mean.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Mario:
The jig will basically keep the phone on without the battery, allowing you to proceed with fastboot. It's how Motorola coded the bootloaders, basically an emergency boot mode.

After a successful unbricking, the battery charger will start to function normally. The reason Motorola do this type of bricking is mostly safety, of course the battery can crash and burn, especially with the broken software on the phone. So, Motorola reserved the USB ID = 5 Volts DC USB power as the emergency boot mode.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnsingh:
OK so the cable that came with my phone cannot act like a USB jig because I have one it just won't get into fastboot mode so if I make one it will go onto fastboot mode.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbreezy187:
When you say jig do you guys mean a factory cable its very easy to make (thread linked) or buy a team black hat adapter

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Mario:
dbreezy187 - this. I will find a link to Blackhat jig (I have this one - $10).

EDIT: ....! Team Blackhat disappeared.... Guess I lucked out and bought one on time. Nevertheless it ought be simple to make the factory cable.

You should to try a factory cable... The green led tells me that the battery is dead (to dead to boot to the charging animation, fastboot or os) and it is recognizing that it is connected to a power source... Try to use a factory cable to flash the firmware if it does flash successfully once flash connect it to a standard USB cable and charge vie wall adapter not a pc

Edit... I just read that it may have died during ota if that is the case you may be in a hard spot... Next step I would contact moto or vzw for warranty status and/or replacement/repair

[HTC One S] tom0769:
Hi,

I just bought a one s and read through the forums for root, s-off and so on.

Compared to my EVO 3D and Sensation, s-off seems to be less painfull since there are some convenient exploits around that don't need any hardware actions (as the wire trick or soft brick the device).

But I got a little bit concerned about some posts claiming that after s-off the 3g connectivity got lost,

though reading the threads of the latest/greatest custom roms, there's nothing mentioned.

There's one dedicated thread in dev section, but I found no clear statement on how this is to fix.

Some state, that simply changing rom helps to get 3g back.

Some say it's a radio thing.

One member described a method where memory block is manipulated, but this also didn't work for all.

Till now I s-offed each htc phone I owned immediately, but now I'm getting doubts.

I'd appreciate any feedback on this from you experienced ville users out there.
[HTC One S] sns00:
To save you money, time and grief DONT DO IT.

Surely me and most everyone else is thankful that these guys spend time developing and tinkering but I screwed 2 One S,

that is when those disclaimers kick in, and I also looked, not exhaustively, for a skilled JTAG tech/user, the guy I sent it to

said he couldn't figure it out.

Maybe someone here can; most people that JTAG said that doing it to that phone is hard because it has to be taken apart.

Honestly, S-Off would make sense if its a new device to come in the market, as you have noticed, most ROMs and apps just

disappeared and the latest radio put together by someone in here is a 1.35.XX.XX. Since ROMs are limited, and most developers

dont even bother with this device just leave it alone. If flashing the radios is what you want, try the Aroma radio installer for Sense,

if I remember correctly, I think I flashed a radio while running SlimROM and the radio did not reset after reboot.

P.S. If you decide to do it, before hand, find a JTAG tech that has experience with it and can fix this problem, and post it here, please.

I'm still holding on to it in case I find such a person.
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
OP is four month old ...

I never screwed up ANY HTC phone, because they are pretty nice to handle. If the phone fits the prerequisites S-OFF is easy to gain. That users screw their phones by wrong handling is not the dev's fault :P
[HTC One S] sns00:
Well, good for you:victory:. Since you know so much, why not show everyone else how to properly handle the device?

Did not mentioned methods/names, so I think I did not offended anyone. If software/hardware did not break, there wouldn't

be a disclaimer on the device and on the software.

That the post is 4 months old is irrelevant, we are not the only ones with One S. Next time provide a solution along with criticism.

If this post offended anyone in any way shape or form, complain to a moderator so my post can be erased.
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
I'm fine with your post ;) I try to help in any case I can. Since today I "bricked" one Samsung phone by following a incorrect guide from another forum, cost me 40$ to repair the bootloader. But that can happen and its totally okay for me and I won't stop modding phones just because of it. For most users S-OFF works without any problem and grant a lot of benefits. So just because you screwed up two One S you can't tell other members to don't set their phone S-OFF as it will probably brick...
[HTC One S] sns00:
Dude, they will do whatever they want with their devices, regardless of what you , me or anyone say.

And the same way you can speak your piece, I can speak my piece, so do not tell me that I can't say this or that. If you don't like what others have to say, there's a number of things you could do instead of reading what I type.

Just sharing an experience that things can go wrong, as it just happened to you. S-Off'ing a phone is something I wouldn't pontificate to a regular user, because if things don't work out I'm not going to pay for a replacement or repair costs. That mod is a "at your own risk" as most other mods are. Do you realize we are a minority, a big chunk of the world don't even install themes on their devices, millions of locked bootloaders, billions of S-On devices and I had nothing to do with it; what are you going to do about that?

S-On works for me, so far, with my M8 GPe, I don't earn a living working with phones or anything related to it, I don't even know how to make a simple app, so what I post is not the gospel, as I assumed it is implied.

"For MOST users S-OFF works..." I rest my case.
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
Most off the poeple, who set their HTC One S and other HTC devices S-OFF, still enjoy a working phone after this modification.

Better?

I just got one question left.

After you broke one HTC One S, why you did you risk doing (probably the same thing) again?

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] sdgmcdon:
In daydream showing the clock on my tylt charger on my night stand its annoying that the capacitive buttons are lit up the entire time...figured google would have fixed this by now...guess not.

I just discovered that Lux, the autobrightness program, can turn them off entirely without root. Awesome, but i would like them on (normal) when not charging and off when charging.

Anyone know of an app that would do this that doesnt require root? I thought for any app to do it root was required, but lux proved me wrong on that, so now im on the hunt for a program that will.

Oh, and is there an easy root method out there yet on this?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] neyes:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Dabrador:
I had the same problem and figured out a solution that doesn't require root or an additional app...

Set a screen lock such as key code or pattern and the option where the power button locks it. With the screen off, hit the power button once to go to the lock screen but don't unlock. Daydream should start shortly without the keys lit.

I tried it and it works perfectly. A couple additional suggestions. For Daydream to start, you have to have it setup properly (i.e. on charge/dock/both). In addition, if you want it to operate in landscape mode, you'll need to run Daydream first in landscape. Turn the screen off with the power button and then turn it back on with the power button while leaving it in landscape mode. Don't unlock it and Daydream will start and the capacitive buttons will remain off no matter how dark the room is.

Hope this helps...

Hi folks,

After weeks of gruesome trial-and-error, trying all sort of guides, I am obliged to turn to you guys for wisdom in my matter.

I possess two identical Samsung S5 demo units. After a couple of days, I've decided to flash the firmware of both of these smartphones with regular S5 firmware, so I can use them as regular wifi-only smartphones, using the following guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2733083

I followed the instructions, and everything went smoothly, for the first S5. But then, when I tried to do the same process on the second one, after successfully flashing in Odin, the phone entered some sort of bootloop, where a blue text appears saying "recovery boot", and nothing else happens; in which I simply cannot enter recovery mode. Due to the fact that the process succeeded previously, I have no backup.

What I would like to know is a way out of this state, either through a different firmware, or any other methods you can throw at me.

Thanks in advanced
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] matt1971:
Depends how you use it.

If im away from home at a weekend and hardly use my device - it might use 25% just being on standby for over 48 hours.

On a daily basis it might be on solidly for 2 hours throughout the day - when i get home battery might be down as much as 50% - thats making calls, texting, listening to music, bit of surfing on net, occasional game of Bejeweled.

Figures quoted by operators are 4hrs talk time, 240hrs standby - these figures mean nothing though.

Who's going to leave their device unused for 240hours to test it!!!

So in answer to your question charging at least once every two days perhaps every day depending on use.
