[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lanchon:
of course it didnt work! after doing the:

chmod +x /sbin/mmc_utils

if you ever did it, you never execute the mmc_utils command again! which is the one that might have reset your emmc!!!!

---------- Post added at 02:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 AM ----------

full procedure:

first reboot into clean latest TWRP via fastboot boot.

unmount all partitions using the recovery menus.

download this file on the PC:

https://github.com/Hashcode/mmc-utils/blob/master/mmc_utils?raw=true

on the PC:

adb push mmc_utils /sbin

via adb shell:

chmod 777 /sbin/mmc_utils

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 of=/tmp/mmcblk0boot0

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot1 of=/tmp/mmcblk0boot1

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/tmp/mmcblk0p13

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/tmp/mmcblk0-beg bs=1M count=96

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/tmp/mmcblk0-end bs=1M skip=15000

FROM NOW ON, IF YOU REBOOT YOUR PHONE YOU ARE TOAST

lets reset the emmc:

via adb shell:

mmc_utils vendor 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0

# (wait about a minute)

mmc_utils vendor 1 /dev/block/mmcblk0

# (wait another minute)

now lets re-read boot0 to check that the new size is ok:

via adb shell:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 of=/tmp/new-boot0

ls -l /tmp

check that:

1) there was no error during dd,

and 2) the size of mmcblk0boot0 and new-boot0 are the same.

in case of problems:

via adb shell:
[COLOR="green"]mmc_utils vendor 2 /dev/block/mmcblk0
# (wait another minute)
[/COLOR]
and retry latest dd & ls. if there are problems again:

via adb shell:
[COLOR="green"]mmc_utils vendor 4 /dev/block/mmcblk0
# (wait another minute)
[/COLOR]
and retry dd & ls.

now lets re-read p2 and see if it is cleared (ie the reset worked):

via adb shell:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 of=/tmp/new-p2

on the PC:

adb pull /tmp/new-p2

fc /b mmcblk0p2 new-p2

->>> lets hope new-p2 was cleared!! if not, probably the rest didnt work.

finally lets restore the contents of the emmc:

via adb shell:

echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro

echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot1/force_ro

dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0boot0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0

dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0boot1 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0boot1

dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0-beg of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=1M count=96

dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0-end of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=1M seek=15000

# watch it! it says seek=, not skip= now!

dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0p13 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

if all went well, the emmc is restored EXCEPT for the backup copy of GPT partition table.

you could choose to upload "parted" to the phone and ask it to fix the backup.

or you can choose to reboot and hope the bootloaders will work with just the main copy of the GPT (which is a reasonable supposition)

if you choose to reboot:

1) reboot to fastboot mode

2) fastboot flash recovery some-new-recovery.img

3) then boot into the newly flashed recovery and check whether it was actually written to the emmc, or the old recovery is still there

Everything as described in the guide. No errors except the GTP problem. 2). were the same.

The old and the new files had no difference.

Another fail. :(( Im so sad atm. fking emmc why did it brake at this moment :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lanchon:
sad to hear that. we did all we could, that mobo is gone. :( take care!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] valkata1212:
is it repair worth it???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lanchon:
i suppose not. you can sell it for parts, there are a lot of galaxy nexus with broken screens. assuming the screen is in good condition...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] valkata1212:
my gnex looks like brand new, all those years I took care for it, not even a scratch, only on the back on the plastic ... and now its dead :((
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lanchon:
if you have friends travelling from the states there are incredible offers there from time to time. i bought a brand new LG G2 in sealed box earlier this week for $199 for example. it is basically a nexus 5 with 50% more battery, bigger display and other improvements. sell your display there (it's easy, cause the buyer knows it works, your phone still boots) as soon as possible. gadgets loose value quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] valkata1212:
I have no connection in the states, im from europe ... Ill probably sell it for parts but here the value will bi minimal.

Just repeated this on my three dead tuna's and they are still dead. Actualy one of them is not that locked as I can write to emmc. That phone won't stay booted for more than a few seconds (a reboot happens after). I can write to emmc but this procedure did not erased the emmc. I think 3 tunas is enough for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lanchon:
gotta love samsung!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Noeljunior:
ahah never again! actually I close my eyes to the brand everytime I buy a samsung thing :p

Anyway, beside the ones that are dead, I still have my main and first tuna from 2011 still computing android 6. But I think I sould not have said this :P

OnePlus One touch scereen issue. Bottom part only affected, and only if I touch it with my thumb.

After a few months of bugless experiense of my OPO use, now is my turn. Touch scereen issue only at the bottom part of it (where the navigation bar should be ). If I touch it with my thumb, then touch became incorrect, sloppy, with some small dead zones. But if I touch it with my forefinger in the same place, then everything is OK.

http://youtu.be/7IgmQorDlF0

At first I thought that the case ROM, tried stock,CM11,CM12,ColorOS... no changes.

Then I thought that I had dirty fingers, washed my hands, cut nails - no changes

I thought, maybe is the glass protector issue, took it off - still no changes.

Now, I assume that the problem has something to do with the grounding...

Did anyone similar problems? How you solve it?

Hi,

I am using O2 xda mini s, and i just bought a sony ericson HBH-DS970 stereo bluetooth earphones.

I am using WM6 Xplorer Rom and radio version 02.25.11.

Currently I am a bit frustrated with my bluetooth earphone as the quality is very poor eventhough I read that the quality of the sound if used with other bluetooth handphone / pocket PC is superb.

I have ben searching this forum to either tweaks the registry or any patch to improve the sound but currently I'm still lost. I found one old post (WM5) which guide us to tweaks -> HKLM/software/microsoft/bluetooth/a2dp/settings....

but my problem is that there is no settings folder under my a2dp, there are 4 folder with label 1,2,3,4.

Are there any way i can improve the sound quality???

will changing the radio rom affect the quality of bluetooth reception??

Please enlighten me..

Thanks

Try the settings from cduncan...

If there is no registry entry, you will have to manually put them.

You can change the bitpool setting for quality of music.

Cheers Sids,

I have already do as you said... previously went to that post but feel lost, and since the thread have over 100 pages, therefore i feel inappropriate to ask you or duncan.

One more thing though, can i ask you what is your personal preference on those settings?? I cant put a lot of bass, because it will sound terrible, like broken speaker.. what todo??

cheers mate

p/s My problem is that the quality of the sound that coming out of my BT earphone is just poor (although others are highly recommending this DS970). I have no problem with pairing it with my wizard or the playback.

I have play around with the BitPool and the only difference that I notice was the volume level, not the sound quality. any advice??

One more thing, is the selection of Radio Rom have any effect to the quality of the bluetooth signal i.e. to the output in my BT earphone??? Help...

Thanks again
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sids911:
Hi,

I cant say about your BT headsets. But I confirmed these things - Updated firmware from the manufacturer (Jabra for me) and the quality with other A2DP enabled (maybe nokia/SE) phone.

I have set my bitpool setting to 60 which is Farias default, but he placed the reg entry in AD2P folder instead of A2DP by mistake.

I am using equalizer settings with TCPMP for the nice sound, which I dont get with Windows Media Player. Maybe you could try that out.

Even after those settings and tweakings, I dont think BT headsets can replace wired headsets for an audiophile. You will only just get passable sound quality. Maybe its got to do with bandwidth that BT provides.

Lastly, I may be wrong, but Radio roms are only used for GSM radio. Its got nothing to do with BT.

Gurus, please correct me if I am wrong anywhere.

Sometimes the sound was disapeared and suddenly back to normal again (with lag of course). I have try my OROKR with my PALM Treo 650 using A2DP s/w it's produced same quality like my MDA.

[XDA Assist] :
Hi Folks

Thanks for the time at visiting this thread, and I'm offering 2 beers as a part of my appreciation, should someone be able to help me getting the phone to a state, where a system can be flashed.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini (GT-I8190), which is now in a hard-bricked state, where the only gasp of life, is the notorious drill from the vibrator, as the phone seems to try and start-up, every 2 seconds. No Screen, light, or anything else.

The story behind is, that while having stock android, it started to spontaneously restart and go into a boot loop, until attached to a charger.

First every 7 days, then 3 days, then once a day, before it was several times a day.

I decided to root it, and install CM 11, and that wasn't without it's quirks, but flashed it became.

I noticed that the problem was still there, and there where some apps force closing all the repeatedly, so I went into TWRP that was flashed together with CM 11, and wiped data, and did a complete system factory setting.

I pushed the reboot to system button, and the next thing I remember, is that it vibrates, and nothing more, which is what it does every 2 second. When I leave it discharged for a while, and try to turn it on the first time, then it sounds like it "tries" the best, as there are 4 seconds between the vibrations, and then it goes as usual....

I suspect that I have manage to damage the boot loader somehow, and it can't either go in download mode, nor system "aka" Hard Bricked.

I have been looking around at the site, and have seen guides for other phones, where the boot loader is put on an micro SD card, and then revived that way.

Any help/method to get this phone into a usable state is widely appreciated, and once again, thanks for taking your time to read this!

I think you're mistaken, do you have a link to this video please? You can only flash signed zips (official OTA's) with the stock recovery.

Hi guys.

I've encountered an issue very annoying and bad on this phone(i9100)!

If the phone's battery empties to 0% and it's not put to charge right away, the phone won't ever boot anymore the next time you charge it. It just stays on the "Samsung Galaxy" screen.

I go to recovery and reset it to factory, delete cache, etc, still nothing. If I rewrite the firmware it works and boots. But if I repeat the same thing and let the battery drain out to 0% again, it won't boot anymore.

Did anyone had this issue before? For me it is new. And I wanted to sell the phone too... The poor guy who buys it and stumbles upon this ****, will yell at me for giving him a broken phone... :(

Is there any way to fix this problem? Help me please, just this once.

The phone is on stock rom, 4.1.2.

EDIT:

Cool, and after a couple of factory resets, it finally booted. But now it asks for sim code??! WTF is wrong with this phone? The stock rom is unlocked, why would it ask for the sim code? :(

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] BranC85:
I have used the sense 6 toolbox for xposed for a long time, but I have only recently installed ElementalX for wake gestures. I found that they were kind of finicky, as in sometimes they are very sensitive, other times not at all. Especially with dt2w. So I tried disabling gestures in toolbox and installing "wake gestures" from the repository instead. Absolutely none of them work, and not the gestures in toolbox don't work anymore either. Does simply having two apps that handle wake gestures installed, even if only one has gestures assigned to actions, interfere with each other too much to work?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bdizzle1686:
I'm not sure, but what version of elementalX r u using? I'm on 4.4.3 using EX 18.0, and the gestures come built into the kernel. Have u tried any of the kernel tuning APPS (not Xposed Modules)? They tend to work better than Xposed, at least I think so. ElementalX has it's own app on play store (like $3.99) , but Trickster Mod and Kernel Configurator are also good.
