[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Apologies, might have missed out Your quote earlier. So You now have ROM and other stuff in the phone. What problem are You facing Now? Also I would recommend the new released version b14c with kernel from b14d of nAOSP.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
simply... I get to bootloader as we wrote last. Then I flash kernel, and phone died. Now I can only charge or see a Sony logo. I can ONLY this now. no buttons helps, no different cable/slot/PC helps... I'M only in charging mod, after turn on only logo see. no TWRP, no bootloger.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
So You can't even go into bootloader now? That's weird and also makes this a bit complicated! Because You need to be able to go into bootloader mode to flash a new kernel which has recovery. Hope You are pressing only volume while connecting phone to PC. Drivers are fine as You were able to flash a kernel earlier. Which Kernel did You flash first? If You are able to go into bootloader, then flash this kernel via fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
Ok, I flash it. But I really can't into bootloader. If I hold vol button, conn cable only red, charging light... Now I really don't know what else.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
So You were able to flash the kernel I gave? Then You should be able to boot into CWM recovery. The Kernel logo will be of a Android bot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
So I flash kernel before I read your post as you done after it.. I flash different kernel. And after face it to phone is in that situation as I wrote last reply. Nothing... Only red diod and turn off as "dead" charging or red light and Sony logo... Yes, thats my foul, I know... But when Is logo light and phone "start up", I see him in device manager, but not with drivers. I tryed reinstal drivers and nothing... Vol up and cable connection doesn't function yet. Very bad now..:(

Thank you for helping!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Okay, lest clear somethings now. You flashed a kernel, but not the one I mentioned.

Then after it when You connect the phone to PC just the red light glows and Sony Logo comes up.

You tried installing and uninstalling drivers but nothing worked and are not able to connect into fastboot mode now.

Also, some more facts so that You and I are following same procedure.

Bootloader mode=fastboot mode. That means when You are in bootloader mode, You are in fastboot mode and You can flash kernel on phone using this mode. This happens when You switch off the phone, and disconnect it from PC, and then press just the volume up button when the phone is off and connect the phone to PC. The LED automatically turns blue with nothing being displayed on screen. This should work as You were able to flash kernel earlier.

Also, if You are able to see Sony logo, then that means You didn't flash the kernel I gave as it would show You this kernel logo.

Also, since You are able to see Sony logo, means the kernel You have works for Your phone and if the kernel is working that means You should be able to access fastboot mode on the phone. So, I assume that the mistake being done here is in the procedure. Just read this out and let Me know further.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
Yes, I know what mean fastboot, to flash via flashtool. this I know...

But sorrry, I flash different kernel. I find out it. I flash this kernel

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473397660

. It's my problem I think...

Also You're right. I flash this kernel via way you wrote. And now I'm in this sitution. Are we clean now?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Yup, clear now. The previous problem had been simply due to a wrong information, so wanted to clear that.

See, the Kernel You flashed also works fine because it is meant for Sony Xperia S and You have unlocked bootloader. And that means You should still be able to access the fastboot mode on the phone, although why You are not able to is a mystery. And at this point, We will have to try out different methods to get Your phone working. Can You tell Me what exactly happens when You turn off Your phone and connect it to PC while holding vol up button? Means what it displays on the flashtool, or what LED comes on the phone?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
Exactly when I turn phone off and connect cable during I hold volume up button, display don't "black" light as in flashmode, display is still turn off and LED is red as charge. In first time I mean that I have low batery, I let phone charging on normal charge, no PC connect. And phone was off LED red light, then Sony logo comes and red LED, turn off and LED red, Sony logo and LED red. Still cyclus. Then I turn it off by vol up and pwr(top) button. Connect cable and hold volume up hold, the same.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Okay, so at least You are going by correct fastboot procedure(press vol up and then connect cable to phone). And You get red LED even when You connect phone in fastboot mode. Did You try flashing a stock kernel by flashmode? Do try that once. In that, Yo have to download a stock ftf, select it to flash via fastboot, and then connect cable to phone, which is turned off, by pressing vol down button. Then it will start the flashing process automatically. Or else You can try the rubber band method from here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
Thank you, I'll try it. It seams the same problem.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] magntwo:
Thank rubber method I flash stock ftf! Phone start stock. I turn it off and I let it charge at 50% least. Then I turn debbuging on, copy files to phone and instal boot carbon of you, ROM, gapps and SU. When It works fine :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Great that Your problem got solved finally@

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] masterlo3:
Only here to share this app { NOMone resolution changer }for android gamers using galaxy grand. Personally, I feel that SGG should have a higher screen resolution as it makes gaming better in terms of gfx.

The app is easy to use and it doesn't need your phone to reboot before applying changes and if you notice strange icon size on your status bar, just reboot your phone to fix that and try not to put custom resolution you don't know about use the templates given in the app if confused.

I use the Google nexus 4 template for gaming sometimes. Not my app, just want to share with people who doesn't know about it. So install and enjoy.

hi here are the apps/tweaks that i use :)

Apps:

Greenify, Disable Service, Trickster Mod, Wakelock Detector.

all google apps are uninstalled except of Google Play and Google Play Services.

in Disable Services i have disabled the following Google Play Services:

com.google.android.gms.config.ConfigFetchService

com.google.android.gms.auth.be.proximity.authorization.userpresence.UserPresenceService

all fitness/wearables services

I can really recommend disabling those services, because they drain the battery a lot.

Tweaks:

underclocked to 1728 MHz.

governor: intellidemand.

read ahead buffer size: 4096 KB.

Intelli-Plug is enabled instead of MP-Decision.

Location in Google Play Services is disabled through the privacy guard that is included in CM-based roms.

As theme i use LessUgly Blue, and launcher is Apex Launcher, and also i use a lot of the customization that is included in pac-rom :D

Having the elastic strap on the case is really nice for one handed use. Belt holster came from local flea market vendor- you have to shop for whatever fits your phone the best. 64GB sd from Amazon.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
Hello guys,

A while ago, I was just doing stuff I normally do with my phone. I flashed a ROM and it rebooted normally. I then flashed a MOD using TWRP recovery. As usual, every MOD that uses Aroma Installer has a "Reboot device after install" option so I chose that and then **** happened.

Out of nowhere my One suddenly shuts off (The install was done so...)

I have tried the sensor under bright light trick and my phone does vibrate once but nothing actually happens. Just a black screen and stuff.

Sometimes it does go into this screen where it shows a battery icon with thunder bolt in the middle (Yes I know that is the charging screen. But, I also believe that it acts like a progress bar and it does not do THAT.)

Then again, it dies and it doesn't have the charging LED nor would it turn on.

Help is appreciated. I know basic and complicated android stuff but I can't do any of that if my phone is dead :P

Edit: When I press the power button for a few seconds, it vibrates but nothing happens. The screen is still off and the charging LED is not turning on as well.

Edit: Okay, when I do get it to charge, it shows that charging screen and when I unplug it, it freezes with the charge light on. :( The phone is also heating up so that does mean it's charging :D

Regards,

TAM :D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
No. But I was able to drain the battery and once I plug it in using the original HTC wall charger (which is the one that I always use to charge it.) it charged but the charging LED is blinking (mut have drained it self good overnight) am I making progress or did I make it worse? :eek:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
It's difficult to say at this point, Personally I would just leave it charge over night. Then try and power it on with Volume Down+Power while still connected to the charger. And it definatly doesn't show up in device manager, not even as Unknown Device or QHUSB_DLOAD? I find that a little odd.

But there are signs of life so I think a good charge may do the trick.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
Yes. I did plug it into my laptop's usb ports last night when it still had charge (usb 3.0 if that helps) but it was neither recognized nor visible in the device manager. I hope! I am now charging my phone as we speak. I hope it's not dead too :eek:

if it showed nothing like no charging light or nothing on screen then its Hard Brick
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
Then it is probably a soft brick or a battery problem. Because when I got home I immidiately pluged it into the wall charger for it to charge and it charged showing the charging screen with a blinking LED.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
can I ask what your flashed before it did this ?

also crazy question, but have you tried holding down the power button till the lights on the bottom flash approx. 12-15 times ? this resets the device, Ive had to do this after many flashes of various things.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
I was flashing a MOD then after the installation finished, it asked if I wanted to "reboot now" so I tapped yes then the phone died and it won't start anymore. Yeah but how long should I hold the button? Just to clarify, my phone only vibrates if I hold the power button for a long time. It just keeps vibrating and vibrating :eek:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
until the lights stop flashing, usually about 12 or 15 times cant quite remember exactly how many times they flash but its quite a few.

I know you said you tried the bright light trick, but you should also try this trick whilst holding down the power button.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
Umm...but the buttons don't light up when I press the power button for a long time.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
It does this but when I unplug it, it freezes like that with the LED on.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Android Manual:
Edit: When I plug it in the computer it doesn't show up (I think that's good because it's a sign telling me that maybe the phone just needs a long ass charge). Now I will be leaving my phone to charge over night and hope that it will boot up in the morning. The phone becomes hot too while it's charging.

Okaay so...I sent my phone for repairs and they said it was the motherboard that's having problems. Well I don't believe them (kind of) because before I sent it for repairs I messed with it using Linux. I tried to use Dexter's unbricking project but unfortunately, it wasn't able to be detected by the script or whatever it's called. it always responded with...

bricked device not found. Aborting. Check connections.

or something like that I can't remember anymore.

but I also ran dmesg (I can't remember what the exact command was but that one is close enough lol). Doing so, it detected my One as an "HTC Phone" next to that one was the device's serial number "SHXXXXX". I did this using Ubuntu 12.0 on a Dell laptop with USB 2.0 ports.

I also ran the lsusb command and it had a line. something like this...

<bunch of numbers> USB port (or some peripheral connected to the laptop).
<bunch of numbers> USB port (or some peripheral connected to the laptop).
<bunch of numbers> (blank)
<bunch of numbers> USB port (or some peripheral connected to the laptop).
oh you get it :)

One more thing, after reading through the output of the dmesg command it also tells me that the device "disconnected" but after that I ran the command again and it gives me the same output.

I do not understand how the hell could this be a "motherboard" problem since it is detected as an HTC PHONE or Android Device. It sucks how I can't fix this and I don't even know if they're telling the truth or some ****. I hope the repair dudes did not ****ing make it worse by screwing up the hardware. I hope there is a solution to this because I'll be left with my damaged HOX and it's kinda difficult to use. :(

Hi all. I bought a pre-rooted Fire TV today that came with Kodi and a bunch of other things installed. I'm new to Android and am a bit puzzled about something: the current firmware is 51.1.4.1 but that's unrootable....but my AFTV is definitely rooted and Amazon updates are turned off.

Can someone please elaborate on how my AFTV can be rooted but currently running an unrootable firmware?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madddcow:
I bought it from a guy on eBay who sells a lot of these. I'm almost certain it was new but had been rooted and set up prior to sale in order to boost his profit. I originally purchased a brand new unopened unit from him but when I turned it on, I realised it had 51.1.4.1 firmware and couldn't root it.....so I contacted the guy and paid extra to get a rooted/set-up unit instead. He told me that his latest batch of AFTVs had the newer firmware and therefore couldn't be rooted, but he still had a few rooted units available (which is what I ended up getting). However, I'm still confused as to how the current firmware can be 51.1.4.1 but still be rooted?!?

Sorry for the noob question....my background until now has been iOS and I've been running jailbroken ATV 2s with XBMC. WIth iOS, if you upgrade from a jailbroken firmware to a non-jailbreakable firmware then you lose the jailbreak. I'm puzzled as to how my AFTV is essentially "jailbroken" but running a non-"jailbreakable" firmware version....that doesn't make sense to me.

EDIT: I just remembered that when my AFTV boots, Rbox's Boot Menu appears with Boot Kernel and Launch Recovery options. I'm going to have to do a lot more reading about all of this stuff. I guess I'm lucky in that I have a rooted AFTV but from what I understand so far, I'd lose root if I mucked around and tried to downgrade.
