[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K44:
Yesterday I tried to flash the "D6503_17.1.1.A.0.402_TELEFONICA-DE-LTE.ftf" via FlashTool 0.9.18.4 but unfortunaly my computer restarts during the flashing process. When I turn on my phone it ends in a bootloop.

Then I tried to flash the ftf again, but FlashTool stucks while flashing system.sin (DEBUG message says: "Sending part 1537 of 3516", then "Writing packet to phone"). Between part 217 and 218 there was an delay of 7 minutes but after part 1537 in stucks till the phone goes off. I tried different ftfs (stucks at different parts but always while flashing systemsin), tried different USB cables, different USB ports, uninstalled FlashTool and installed it again (likewise the USB drivers). Furthermore I tried to repair the phone via PC Companion but the tools stops while updating with error code 100 and message "Download of software not possible" but there is no problem with the internet connection. I turned of my anti-virus and firewall when using FlashTool or PC Companion but no luck...

The bootloader is locked and the phone was never rooted or unlocked or anything. Any ideas how I can get my phone working?

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ez4nick:
I've had my nexus 9 now for about 2 months and I usually charge it overnight. The past few days I've noticed that in the morning it wasn't full. I tried a different charger besides the oem one included and had the same problem. The screenshot from gsam shows how the rate of charge goes all over. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Could this be a problem with my charger, nexus 9 or some app that is using excessive battery in the background?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Try a different cable. Then check in settings, battery to see if you have ac charging or usb.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taronas:
tldr;: quickly unplug and replug the cable to fix this

Long version:

I tried different three cables, three different chargers. The one shipped with the N9 behaves really bad. The N7 one works good - if it works, as well as another 2A charger. what I get is this:

You can see two nightly charging periods, both with the same charger/cable. One night it works as expected, the other night it just loads slow.

I connected a power meter and noticed the following: very often after connecting the Nexus 9 to the Charger (with the meter in between) it will draw only 500mA or even less - no matter what output the charger offers. But simply disconnecting the cable and reconnecting it will suddenly allow the device to draw the maximum possible like 1.8A or so.

So, last night I forgot to re-plug the charger cable and therefore got the slow loading.

I'm thinking of asking to exchange the tablet but if all behave the same? Sad :(
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ez4nick:
What I noticed is with the provided cable it starts out as USB and then switches to ac a few seconds later. With a different USB cable it went immediately to ac charging.. I think what is weird is I never had a problem with this until recently. Is the problem there is something wrong with the USB cables they shipped?
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
How to flash it for F180L?

Where can I get the modem/baseband for F180L?

Does 4.4.2 kitkat baseband for F180L work for CM 12?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Solitarily:
Yes, it is using 4.4.2 kitkat baseband. If the sensor does not work, you may need to flash omniROM, then flash Kev's CM12.
[Ornate TrueSmart] rayblade:
hi, I noticed that when I activate any running apps(runkeeper, mapmyrun etc) with gps and data(3g) , even though im stationery...the app icons(tat represent me) would move around on its own... clocking distance.......is there anything wrong with my omate? what can I do...pls advice.....
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
The TS GPS can be quite good. It is better than my Garmin ForeRunner 305 (still one of the best GPS receivers) 4 out of 5 GPS points or so. Occasionally though, there is a point far off other times the accuracy just decreases some minutes.

With EPO (use MT GPS app) and A-GPS it locks very fast too.

There is a HW problem though, the GPS antenna can snap. But then you will not get a lock at all.

It is normal that GPS units shows speed when still, especially with bad coverage, you have to compare with a known reference GPS to say if the TS is bad/good

There is minimal difference for apps (most only have some smoothing differences)

I believe IpBike is the best running app.
[Ornate TrueSmart] rayblade:
hi, the funny thing is that the distance keep accumulating.......when I havent even started running.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
It is normal, if you have started timing.

Due to accurracy, the GPS position is not exactly the same everytime, it is like throwing darts.

The GPS can be good.
[Samsung Gear S] alanshortt:
[Q] Will the "main" phone be damaged if you keep it plugged in all the time?

When my new S4 has finished charging I get a message "fully charged - unplug now " or whatever

given this phone needs to be always connected to get the best from the Gear S will it harm it to keep it always plugged into the mains?

thanks
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
No. The message is just part of green earth initiative to remind you unplug the cell charger when it is done to save energy. The charging circuit already stop the charge before that.
[Samsung Gear S] eclipse05x:
It won't get damaged although it's not healthy for the battery to keep Voltage always that high. When it's fully charged it has around 4,6V, when it's flat it has around 3,5-3,6V (My Note3 as example). But no worries, It's samsung so you can replace the battery after a year or two.

But still it would be nice just to slowly discharge battery in your S4 and then, charge it back again preferably with slow charger (like this one you got with Gear S - 0,7A)

The same reason it's recommended to store batteries (if for longer period) with 40-50% of charge as voltage is not that high. You can observe the same thing with all new devices with batteries. They aren't fully charged
[Samsung Gear S] alanshortt:
Thanks - thats very helpful & educational - I always wondered why the phones came half-charged

The use case scenario was not to leave the phone plugged in "forever" but to try going completely "master phone free" for maybe a couple of days if that was possible

Thanks for pointing out another obvious reason for persevering with my move away from the iPhone and struggling with the Galaxy/Gear/Tizen/Android ecosystem - you can at least change the battery!

er but maybe not in the Galaxy S6!

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] rjtd:
Every radio rom past 2.19 gives me low battery time.

I'm using now 2.19.21 with AKU 2.3. AKU 2.3 solved the problem about "home service" on the current network. 2.19.21 solved the problem where the phone was always registering with the GSM netowrk, draining the battery very quickly.

I went from 1 day and a half using 2.61.21 and 2.69.21 radios @aku2.2 to three and a half days of battery time with 2.19.21 radio@LvsW aku2.3.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] crazyd:

2.19.21 is the best choice for my Prophet (Qtek-ROM 2.20), long standyby and no problems with gprs.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Beliau:
Hello, straight to the point I didnt know what to do. Basically, I can't turn it off by using any means. Plus, after a force shut down [take out the battery], it automatically reboot on itself which disturbs flashmode. Means, I cant even install a fresh stock firmware which I had tried more than once. I really appreciate any help. Thx.

My phone : Xperia Nexus rom, Vengeance kernel

Problem : Wont turn off, annoying popup [shutdown box] at screen, power button not working
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dzepar:
Take out the battery, hold power button for 10 - 15 seconds, reinsert battery. But first preper Flashtool for flashing, when you see popup connect your phone, try steps above.

Good Luck.

Xperia M2 D2303 on K.K. 4.4.4
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Beliau:
ermm. after doing the steps you provided three times . it's still the same. flashmode only last for about 10 seconds and then it will reboot automatically.

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchsub:
Accidently thanked instead I wanted to reply.

The same I tried as shadow did. Find contactsyncadapter apk matching your current android version 4.2.x or 4.4.x , install it by tapping in a file manager, reboot then inside the account, you can sync.

The same goes for calendar sync where you will need to.find calendarsyncadapter apk.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imgsci:
I was using my Nook HD+, when the screen suddenly showed lines all across it and froze. I had to push down the power button for 8 seconds to shut it down. Then could not turn it on. Tried all possible combinations, power, power+n, power+n+volume up keys for 5 seconds and for 30 seconds each time. Still not turning on. I tried plugging it in (although it had about 40% charge left before the screen froze) and noticed that the charging indicator glows green. If I push down the power button for 8 seconds, the light goes off, but if i press the button again, it comes back on. I've tried all the methods I saw on internet, except for draining the battery because the post suggested keeping it in a fridge, which I'm hesitant and also not in a position to do. Please help guys. I'm at a total loss.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk1jag:
Have you tried unplugging the battery from the MB wait 30 secs then plug it back in and charge it .(you have to remove the rear cover of course) I have had this issue with 3 HD+ units and it worked everytime.
[Samsung Galaxy Fame] aksclusive:
This post is all about how i managed to themed my STOCK JB SystemUI.apk and changed my TouchWiz ICON. on my Galaxy Fame GT-S6812 [STOCK][JB][ROM]

I like customizing my phone and i almost tried every Launcher available on Android Market, Launcher is a Good way of changing the look of your device but launcher's do eat lots of RAM and being a Low end Device owner i know how much "LOW RAM" issue bothers me. So i decided to customize my default TouchWiz Launcher "ICON" and the status bar without compromising precious RAM. After achieving my Goal i thought of sharing my experience with other "GALAXY FAME" user too and this is only reason behind this post :o

SO lets Get Started

Requirement:

1) Rooted Device

2) Make a Nandroid Backup before trying to play with system file :p

3) Deodexed ROM or Deodexed SystemUI.apk (If you dont have both than download my [MOD] SystemUI.apk from the attachment )

4) Wiziconizer.apk (Cool app to change default ICON to Custom ICON)

5) RomTool Box .apk (Premium) ;)

6) Root Explorer or ESFile Explorer with root access even you can use root browser from RomTool Box app

General Information :

NOTE: Before proceeding i recommend you all to take a look on following post as this post explain the procedure of DEODEX-ing you ROM

Deodex Stock Rom

OR​

IF you dont want any hassle you can simply download my MODED systemui.apk file from attachment. :D

Step:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Theme StatusBar<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

1) Make a backup of SystemUI.apk & SystemUI.odex file on to you SDCARD from /system/app folder

2) Rename SystemUI.apk (default one) to SystemUI.apk.bak and delete SystemUI.odex after doing this you may Get an error message that

Unfortunately, SystemUI has stopped working (Dont panic be patient and do the 2nd step)

3) Copy MOD SystemUI.apk to /system/app folder {if yor are using my MOD SytemUI than you can see the change after you reboot your device or if you are using stock deodex SystemUI.apk than do step 4 to customize you statusbar }

4) Open RomTool Box and navigate to Interface Tab and select Statubar Icons

5) Choose any desire theme and apply to theme status bar

View attachment 3151031 View attachment 3151032

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Theme TouchWIz Icons<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Step:

1) Download any Icon Packs { I used MIUI icon Pack }

2) Open Wiziconizer.apk

3) You will see the Icon Pack icon there ,

4)Long press on it and select apply

5) If prompt For Root Access than Grant Permission

6) Reboot

and enjoy the new look your Device :)

Hi Friends, hope you are loving the Yureka as much as I'm doing :highfive:

I've rooted my phone and installed Philz recovery on the day I received it. Now I do not want to flash the stock recovery just to get the OTA.

Is there anyone here who is kind enough to share Philz flashable?
[YU Yureka General] venreddy:
Hi even i am looking for similar flashable zip file for this update.

I have installed custom recovery, rooted and removed some system apps, converted some system apps to user apps to improve performance and battery life.

For this update i tried reloading stock rom, un rooted... But still OTA is failing. Tried flashing it with adb sideload, still same issue. Then i realized OTA is checking for system apps integrity before installing.

Can some body remove these verifications, so any one can flash this update.

Thanks

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maplobats:
I'm not sure what the problem might be, but I have used many of those roms with devil kernel, both stock and CM based (usually both at once...love dual booting!)

I did have an issue a year ago or so where the only thing I could do to get something to boot with devil (after using other kernels) was a full super-wipe (ie: everything on the internal SD) I never did find out the exact cause, but that was the only thing that worked. It was quite awhile back, so I don't remember many of the details unfortunately)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nonta72:
Well...I had same issue on Note II N7100 with the kernel. Can't Dualboot at all. Fortunately N7100 have MultiROM support now.

I will ask about this on Devil Kernel thread, maybe I will get more replies there.

i flashed my jamin with this rom, everything is great but one thing is not functioning as it should..i go into text messages and i press new, a new blank text message opens...it shows below is 0/160 as usual, after the first character i write it becomes 1/70 and then i am limited to 70 characters :S

any solution for that? i can't seem to find any

thanks in advance
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] mccune:
What did you already try?

Have you tried a hard reset? Sometimes it's necessary to give a hard reset after the flashing part :)

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Hilal:
Great that did it :D thanks for the help...you guys are the best
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] mccune:
That's strange... ..I know the "problem" with the Unicode. But it manifests in messages with only a few characters being send as two messages. Not with reducing the amount of available characters :(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] emilinho:
Actually, from what I've experienced, there are two Unicode problems. The first is getting only 70 chars when starting a new message. The second arises when using punctuated characters (ãéùç«, etc.) which lowers the limit from 160 to 70 chars. From what you've told, the phone says only a message will be sent and then two messages are sent?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] mccune:
This is probably the reason that some European providers added a "Unicode-Off" CAB to theis ext. ROM :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] lastnikita:
I think he meant "characters", not "messages".

In unicode, each character is coded using 2 bytes (instead of 1), and I guess an additional header is required, thus explaining we get only 70chars., and not 80 as we would expect.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] themendoza:
I recently rooted/rom'd my phone I was running the Alliance ROM for about a month. Yesterday the problem began:

-Unplugged, dies then boot loops the NOTE 2 logo

--can get it to recovery just fine

---I wiped and reinstalled Alliance, still continued

Next I Odin to stock via http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2780984. Odin'd ok. Runs fine as log as its plugged in.

-Still, Unplugged, dies then boot loops the NOTE 2 logo

-New issue, red x on Sprint Signal.

If it stays plugged in its fine. Seems like it could be a battery/hardware issue. Any ideas? Seems like I've seen this issue before from others. Can't find anything though.

Edit: Now reboots while plugged in, will actually boot to home screen through.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
99% sure your battery is the issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] themendoza:
Also, I'm using the charger that came with my wife's Galaxy S4. For some reason I think the charger is part to blame. Evidence is inconclusive though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Rarely is it the charger that causes an issue. The main cause is age. This device has been out for a long time. Even if you purchased the device new today it is possible that parts of it were made a year or two ago.

If you know someone that has a note 2 try using their battery to see if it changes anything. If not a new battery is a cheap purchase although do suggest buying a name brand replacement. Those super cheap one can cause more issues.
