Hi there,

This post looks really hopeful for my currently bootlooping Sony Tablet Z but I just wanted to check that the following steps will work for the Z Tablet as throughout it references only phones? Could you let me know...

How to set up Whatsapp in Genymotion

I have installed Genymotion with Virtualbox successfully.

I already tried some smartphone and tablet VMs of Genymotion with different Android version, but always failed to install Whatsapp then.

After the download of Whatsapp with the 1 Mobile Market App I got the error message "App not installed." when I click "Install" within the download folder by using a file manager.

My attempts to install Whatsapp directly after the finished download within the 1Mobile Market App failed, to.

Has sombody an idea which virtual machine to use and which settings to make in order to use Whatsapp?

Is there a workaround?

*Picture messaging

*WiFi Hotspot

Rebirth rom v1.0 Little Problem.

Hello Everybody,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Sprint, i wanted to install this room, the only problem is that i did it and it just got stuck on the boot logo it just shows the Splash Screen of Galaxy Note 3. I recently updated my baseband from MI3 to NH7 everything was working fine, now i just tried to install this room and i just messed up my phone. Need help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
Pull battery and reinstall boot into recovery. If you are running a stock recovery hopefully you have backed up your data somewhere, then do a factory reset. If you are running a custom recovery do a backup restore.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] arbarof:
Works Charm!

Hello again, I have to notice for everybody who experiments ramdon BootLoops. You have to be on NC5 Bootloader First, you can try looking for the NC5 Bootloader Engineering One Click Method is the one that i used, then i reinstalled the room. and it worked perfect. I dont know why but most of the people is having DATA issues, i have to say that from the first boot my phone got a preconfigured APN, working on 3G and 4G speeds.

Scrapbook

How do i fix scrapbook it's not working for me. The app will not save anything?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Nickitt:
Random bootloops don't exist as a bootloop (keyword random) consists of the system rebooting itself consistently over and over without getting into the system itself which isn't random.

On the other hand, I assume you're talking about random reboots which occur when pulling the status bar from the top left or right corner within an application (as I've narrowed this down on this particular Rom) or digging into the system before the system does its first vibrate once online.

I'm on Sprint, most Sprint users did not have DATA when first time flashing, as I posted on page 3 post #26 how to configure your APN to get sms/mms etc.

I hope I clarified somethings for looking eyes.

Has anyone seen the above alarm notification on their Watch -if so which application does it come from ?

Its goes off twice a day (8:06am and 8:13pm) and I no clue why.

Thanks
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakure:
It's the alarm on the watch... It is different from the one on phone.. Disable alarms on the watch
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sic0048:
If you set an alarm on the watch (usually via the Google Voice commands - "set Alarm for 2pm" for example), it automatically sets it for a daily repeat. This caught me off guard too the first couple of times I used this feature. I really just wanted a single "reminder" type alarm and not the daily alarm.

The good news is that it is easy enough to delete these set alarms. Just go into the alarm app on the watch and you can swipe to delete them. I've started using the "timer" functionality more for these reminder type alarms. The end effect is the same, but it is only a one time alarm instead of daily. You just have to set the timer in hours and minutes. So "Set timer for 3 hours and 15min" works fine.

[LG Optimus L90] MrKidQuisine:
So I was just screwing around with my fonts folder(under system) and I replaced my custom font file for Roboto-Normal.ttf with the original Roboto font and when I rebooted my phone it got stuck on the LG logo and wouldn't advance after that. I also noticed while it was stuck on the LG logo if I hit any buttons in any combinations the phone would vibrate randomly. My phone is rooted with debugging on.
[LG Optimus L90] androidvillage:
Maybe the font was not compatible for your phone,If it was compatible for you it should apply and you should see it immeadiately,Rebooting is not required.

Try to connect the computer and Use the LG R&D Tool to flash the ROM.
[LG Optimus L90] MrKidQuisine:
No I wasn't using a custom font installer I was just putting a different font into the system root fonts folder and that ended up slowing down the phone so I restarted it and now its bootlooping.
[LG Optimus L90] androidvillage:
That's Because the font was written bad or the system cant render it because wrong format,that's why ended up slowing.

Turn off your phone,Hold Volume + And Plug it into USB.AndUse the LG Mobile Support Tool,Select CS_Emergency Mode and Flash...

Or if you could get into the phone into safemode,Fix it by replacing other font into the file.

That's only 2 way to fix your phone.
[LG Optimus L90] MrKidQuisine:
When I hold down volume up and power it just goes into the logo and if I continue to hold it it vibrates then immediately shuts off. Ive tried before to enter recovery mode on this phone but I think LG blocked it.
[LG Optimus L90] shinobisoft:
Perform a factory reset. See this thread Q14.
[LG Optimus L90] SirConnington:
I had a very similar problem that stemmed from trying to install a new font. When I tried a hard key factory reset, it did nothing to fix the bootloop. Rather, I think it made the phone impossible to reach with ADB by resetting the "debugging mode" setting along with everything else. My advice to you, though I haven't actually tried this because of the above problem, is to try to access your phone through ADB.

If that doesn't work, what I ended up doing was sending my phone to an LG service facility with a note attached detailing the problem and cause. They were able to restore it, despite it being rooted.
[LG Optimus L90] MrKidQuisine:
Update

Ok so I left my phone out unplugged for about and hour on the logo and it popped on so Im trying the same thing again but with the sim card in and if it works Im going to see if I can make the thing load faster by updating the permissions on the font file or using a font installer all together.
[LG Optimus L90] MrKidQuisine:
Still stuck in bootloop no other activity since restarting and puting in sim, I also about two hours ago took out the sim and restarted
[LG Optimus L90] icecoldbeaner:
similar problem

i was messing with the app chainfire 3d was prompted to install a graphics driver which and gave me a warning that it might brick my phone if it was not compatible so i said what the hell and proceeded now im stuck at lg logo with no clue on how to get it back to normal i am currently trying lg mobile support tool which seems to only stay at 10% been at it for about 15 min now not sure if just copying files or what im clueless on what to do im running rooted d415 stock rom my phone is on download mode right now
[LG Optimus L90] ryanyz10:
Same problem, different cause

I was installing an update to CM. In the recovery it said something about symlinks failed. I restarted, and now phone will get past the LG logo, but black screen. I can't access recovery either. In adb, I see the device, but it is unauthorized, and I obviously have no way to authorize it. Any way to fix this without sending it back?

Thanks in advance :)
[LG Optimus L90] ryanyz10:
Fixed it

I found a way to recover, but you must have a custom recovery.

Use the button shortcut for force reset. It will take you to recovery. From there you can restore or reinstall a rom.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonog:

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Horak:
Hi everyone, I've got a seemingly dumb question, but does the stock V510, the GPE, only have 3 cpu frequencies? All I can see is 1728mhz, 1026mhz, and 384mhz. Seriously?! I guess that helps this tablet feel so fast, but I've rooted my fair share of Android devices, and I can't remember EVER having a stock kernel with only 3 frequency steps. Any idea why this was chosen for this device?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleekmason:
What governed are you using? This is more of a feature than a drawback. It allows for relatively fast speeds under average load without ramping. On-demand does this.

Its the On Demand. Stock. I get that. Just weird that a 1.7 GHz processor only has 3 steps in its speeds: minimum, medium, and max.
