Ok, first of all thank you. I kept getting error going to 5.1.1 from 5.0.2. Now I'm not totally there yet, but further along.

I was trying today by installing SDK/ADB long way and for some reason could not unlock bootloader. Using the quick SDK install and your steps, I finally am "UNLOCKED"!!!

I then tried short method and it didn't seem to do much. So I tried long method. Unzipped the .tgz file. Shows bootloader.img, flash all.bat, flash all.sh, flashbase, and volantis zip file. Unzipped that file in that folder. So now inside image folder is another image-volantis-lmy47x folder. Inside that folder is boot, cache, recovery, system, vendor .img files.

I went to previous folder, shift Right click open command prompt. fastboot flash bootloader.img and got error

"unknown partition 'bootloader.img'

error: cannot determine image filename for "bootloader.img'"

Any ideas? Thanks again.
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
Correct command is:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader..... img

You are telling it where to flash it, first (bootloader partition), then the file name (bootloader.... img)
[Nexus 9 General] reisb:
WOW...reading is sometimes difficult...lol

Quick question. I'm up to flashing system.img. Want to make sure it's working since it says it takes a while.

I got message saying "target reported max download size if 518205818 bytes"

that's not an error, right?
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
That's probably an error. Google updated fastboot about 6 months ago so it could handle these very large system.img files. Sounds like yours needs to be updated
[Nexus 9 General] reisb:
it ended up doing a bunch of stuff and completing. After fastboot vendor image, I just "power off" on the tablet, disconnected from PC and now rebooting.

Was that correct? just saw somewhere else where it says fastboot reboot...woops
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
Fastboot reboot is correct. But you may be OK.....
[Nexus 9 General] reisb:
It worked the way I did it. Sweet Jesus...I'm finally on 5.1.1

Many thanks!!!
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
Welcome. FWIW: there's a button for that. ;)
[Nexus 9 General] reisb:
Already on it!

Actually gave to Snoop as well for the 15 second ADB installer linked at top of this page. I think that was my main problem before as communication to tablet via fastboot devices or adb devices didn't bring anything up.
[Nexus 9 General] Topse:
Is recovery mode working? Try factory reset.
[Nexus 9 General] PlusOmar:
sorry should've posted an update, actually it turned out that it was caused by rooting the Nexus 9. However I managed to root it using a program by wugfresh, would post links but I can't post links at the moment.
[Nexus 9 General] Topse:
I think you mean NRT from wugfresh.

I used that way http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61052658&postcount=58

Have fun with your working Nexus9 :fingers-crossed:

On android 5.1,how to unlock bootloader or flash any stock rom when my tablet stuck on logo and cant do this :(
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
You need to provide more information on your setup (stock?, ROM?, recovery-TWRP?), and what you were doing just before this happened.
[Nexus 9 General] HTCuser90:
Still original HTC locked bootloader and after update android 5.1 via OTA,stuck on logo google :crying:

Now,i cant unlock bootloader for flash custom recovery or do something because required check OEM unlock bootloader into Development mode.
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
I'm afraid your only option is to return it for repair.
[Nexus 9 General] HTCuser90:
No choice and no solution for fix it ?
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
No, not that anyone has found. If your bootloader was unlocked, yes. Or if you had TWRP recovery installed. But not in your situation.
[Nexus 9 General] pappingfandas:
Quick Question,

I have TWRP installed on my Nexus 9 LTE and want to keep the custom recovery installed and the device rooted but also want to run 5.1.1 stock. Am I able go about this using the following commands?

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

** no recovery flash

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

Is there a better way of doing this? I tried using Wugfresh's NRT and it worked for getting the tablet rooted and unlocked but when I tried to go back to stock I got stuck in fastboot when it tried to boot the stock recovery. I figured I could do this over ADB but I would like to get my ducks in order before I execute it.

Many Thanks
[Nexus 9 General] cmh714:
flashing the system means you will lose root, so you need to have that handy so you can flash it after the fact so you can be rooted on 5.1.1
[Nexus 9 General] pappingfandas:
Have what handy? NRT?
[Nexus 9 General] cmh714:
SuperSu so you can flash root
[Nexus 9 General] cobyman7035:
if i do all those, i will keep my data and apps saved?
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
Yes
[Nexus 9 General] cobyman7035:
instead of stock boot.img, i want to use the modified decrypted boot.img. is that ok?

also im not on stock 5.1.1 kernel. im on elementalX kernel but im decrypted at LMY47x build

do i need to return to stock kernel 5.1.1...then do the upgrade from being stock or it doesnt matter

thx
[Nexus 9 General] cam30era:
It doesn't matter. No need to return to stock. As I suggested in the other thread, just flash the system.img and vendor.img from the factory image of your choice.
[Nexus 9 General] WillyRy:
I get this error when going through both .bat and long method:

C:\Users\Ry\Desktop\Nexus9\RUU\Extracted>fastboot flash system system.img

error: cannot load 'system.img'

all other commands successful.

SOLVED: directory works for everything except system.img. Moved .img file to C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot and ran command from there. All good.

Please help

Hello. Can you please advise?

I have TWRP installed. Now if I power On the device it go to Fastboot screen.

Bootloader locked and I can't change this setting (because device stopped on Fastboot screen).

Is there any way to re-flash via TWRP?

You are my lost hope. As device is out of warranty

May be a daft question but here goes. I have flashed stock N and now I assume back to stock tablet on N. Oem is still unloced. Will I still get OTA updates now?
[Nexus 9 General] Super-Veloce:
So, with the short steps, I can go from 7.1.1 stock to 7.0 stock?

This because of volume/sound problem caused by 7.1.1 update

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enzyne:
So your bootloader is locked? This is the latest firmware but according to this post: http://www.droidrzr.com/topic/54379-fxz-442-1834615/ you cannot root this build if you were not unlocked prior to doing the update. I found this somewhere else tho. Perhaps try it to root. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58948308&postcount=11 What do you mean date and time not working, like the android system date and time? That's odd.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsc786:
yeah bootloader locked... and system time is not working and google stops everything such as play store not working , and all other apps that connect with google.... so Enzyne! i dnt want to root my phone tho!

Greetings,

Is anyone familiar with new brand tablet Tesla H7

OS: Android 4.2

Processor: Intel Atom Z2580 (2.0 GHz)

I have one such device, and after seven days of use is stuck on Intel logo when i Power On device :rolleyes:

I contacted the manufacturer about some info but he refuses to direct me to a solution.

From my research I found another almost similar devices by shape and hardware spec.

Banghó Aero

TECLAST P79HD

I found and upgrade Telcast firmware pass without problem (using Phone Flash Tool).

After Android successfully boot i see in MyComputer mounted storage while device connected over USB so i concluded upgrade proccess is OK BUT screen on device is black and do not hear a sound when i turn up sound on max with hardware button :(

ADB shell from console is available.

any proposal?

Thanx

I did a repo sync on the 16th of an android rom. Built everything just fine.

The next day I did another sync to get the latest code. Now, due to the changes made by the dev, the build fails.

I would like to know how to either :

view all the commits via something like git-cola so I can revert the changes

or

just roll back to the 16th.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

[Samsung Gear VR] mitchellvii:
Looking at two possible GVR cooling solutions for less than $5:

TEST RESULTS:

Metal Sponges - FAIL:

At first I thought the copper sponges were causing interference and stutter but I then realized I was using the wrong governor in Synapse. Once I fixed that the lag disappeared.

Unfortunately, although the copper became warm, it was not wicking off enough heat to prevent shutdown. I am thinking this is because there is not enough surface area of the copper in contact with the battery as you would have in an actual heatsync with 100% contact.

So, metallic sponges are a fail due to not enough surface contact. Interesting idea, doesn't work.

Chilled Hobby Ziplock Bags Full of Fake Ice Goo - SUCCESS!:

Ok, bought 4" x 3" plastic ziplock bags from the hobby section of Walmart. Also bought bag of Coleman Ice Goo. Filled baggy about 1/2 full (don't want it too thick) and triple bagged it alternating direction of the seal to protect against leaks. Chilled baggy until cold but not frozen (didn't want to fog lenses if too cold). Played various 3D games for about 1/2 an hour before I had to quit to do some other things. After 1/2 hour no heat warnings and battery was cool to the touch - so I'm assuming it was working.

The baggie was however only cool and no longer cold. I do not know if it would still cool the battery enough in that state but might due to the fact this is good and not just water. Will need a longer test for that. Regardless, easy enough to create multiple baggies for quick replacement without quitting your game.

So anyway, there it is, $5 cooling solution from your local Walmart. Hope it works for you. :)

** I do not claim using chillpacks to be an original idea, just a really cheap implementation of an idea lots of folks have discussed.

*** I placed this directly on the battery but if that makes you nervous I should think it would still work placed on the back cover - as a matter of fact it might stay cold longer that way and will be easier to switch out on the fly without your battery falling out. Make sure you don't overfill the baggie because with the cover on you will have a lot less room.
[Samsung Gear VR] mitchellvii:
I just read this online:

I'll see if I can buy some at Lowe's.
[Samsung Gear VR] FauxForce:
I don't think you're gonna want to do that, because that aluminum wool can shed little "flecks" of aluminum just by squeezing/pulling it- just from the friction action within the wool. These little microscopic flecks can get into everywhere and everything. If they get inside electronics, they can create electrical bridges (shorts), and truly mess up your electronics. I'm not saying absolutely don't do it, I'm just sharing that it's something to be aware of. I don't like that stuff.
[Samsung Gear VR] mitchellvii:
Thanks yes I also considered that. What I ended up getting was two small copper sponges from Walmart. I don't think these will shed as they are woven not wool.

I also picked up some of that ice substitute stuff and some 4 x 3 hobby zip lock bags. My idea is to chill the baggy full of goop then place it inside a cloth sunglass pouch and that between the N4 back cover and the GVR cover. Will report back.
[Samsung Gear VR] mitchellvii:
Just a followup. I do recommend you go with a chilled pack as opposed to frozen for a couple reasons:

1) Frozen may not fit well as the liquid expands when it freezes.

2) Frozen will cause fogging.

3) I believe a nicely fridge chilled pack will last you about 30 to 40 minutes of gaming at which point you can swap in a new one without stopping.

Yes this is a bit of a cludgy inelegant solution but it is simple, cheap and it works without modding anything permanently.
[Samsung Gear VR] aclays:
Did you experience any problems with condensation when you used the ice pack?
[Samsung Gear VR] mitchellvii:
If the pack was frozen, yes. If only chilled well then no. YMMV.
[Samsung Gear VR] cerchiara:
What governor do you use? I've noticed on Lollipop that there is stuttering using the interactive governor.
[Samsung Gear VR] AlbertoMLG:
I have had no problems just yet. But also I have not used it for more than half hour.
[Samsung Gear VR] BlindDude:
Wow, interesting read.

I just got a Gear VR Innovator edition for Note 4. It overheats like crazy!

I was thinking of a way but I am glad I found this because at least I can use the freezy things while I work on what I had planned for cooling.

My plan... Ummm, is to make the battery remote. The note 4 fits in the gear vr without the back cover installed, so I am wanting to make some sort of remote battery tray, just to get all that heat AWAY from the phone.

If anyone has any cheap ideas on what to use to make a battery tray, and also the dummy battery that I would need to put in the phone, please chime in?

I was thinking I could do it all with cardboard(ugly style) or dremel out the parts from flat plastic. 3D printer would be nice... lol

Edit) This would be ideal. All I would have to do is pry it apart and solder 3 leads onto the board where the pins connect, then use the spare battery, with the leads blocked, or gutted, or some sort of homemade insert for the connection to the phone.

In my case, 25 bucks would be worth it. Both my kids, and I have Note 4's, so about 8 bucks per phone.. not bad. OOPS. I chose that link because I thought it would last a while, but I found many of these for 20-30 bucks elsewhere.

Found a knockoff here,, 10 bucks.. I am ordering this one for sure.

[Samsung Gear VR] Eddie Hicks:
I use to see your post all the time on the Tab S forums. Do you still have it? Anyway I think it's crazy to have to go through so much to use a GVR without it overheating. I'm using mine with a S6. 5 to 10 minutes after using it, videos, games, pictures, doesn't matter, I get the need to cool down message. I tried all of the phone settings suggestions I could find to resolve the overheating and nothing works. I pre-ordered a S7 and should have it around next Friday. Hopefully I'll have better luck with the S7. If not I may try your solution or just sell it and wait for a reasonably priced PC VR to come out.

Hi,

I've bought a new Xiaomi Mi3... it came with MiuiV6 installed, but it doesnt have IMEI!! :(

The IMEI on the back of it is OK, the phone is an original Xiaomi Mi3... i belive that the seller (ibuygou.com) made a fail flash of Miui V6 and the Imei was lost in the process... :(

I've tried a hard reset and nothing... i've flashed the lastest Fastboot via MiFlash.... and the lastest 5.2.13 Multilang ROM... i had problems with Wi-Fi connection and after this they were resolved... But the SIm recognition (does not recognizes it) and the IMEI Loss is still happening...

Anyone can help me?!? ibuygou.com is on spring festival hollidays :(

Via QPST i've downloaded the 00000000_0.qcn File... but once i don t know what is the bricked/crashed IMEI how can i change the Hex code for the correct IMEI?! is there any way to find out what Hex code i have to replace?!? so i can restore the 00000000_0.qcn File with the correct IMEI?!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] frap129:
I've disabled clang for art and bionic entirely, so it just compiles with GCC. I wonder which would be better, since compiling with GCC allows for more optimizations such as graphite.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MusterMaxMueller:
Yes, we have to measure and compare :)

I hope together we can get the manpower to verify/test what is better. That is why i started this thread.

According to linaro, graphite doesnt make that big difference. too lazy to search for the link right now.

I suck at c and the compiler stuff but in my understanding the LTO implementation of CLANG also sounds very interesting.

will update OP.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] frap129:
Well, Graphite does somewhat improve memory(RAM) use, and using the latest ISL and CLooG (as seen in sabermod) has only increased this. There are other options, for example Polly (The clang/LLVM equivalent of graphite) could be used for better optimization. And I didnt know that Clang implemented LTO differently, Ill look into that.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] frap129:
Got around to implementing this into my builds, and it seems that Qcom LLVM has all the same problems as my LLVM that I compiled (host not working, compiler_rt problems).

EDIT: Also, testing Link Time Optimizations (LTO)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MusterMaxMueller:
All fixed :) well except for HOST which wont work with qCLANG. look at my new commit. im sure will help you with your problems.

There were also some derps...

will update OP. already uploaded to github. took longer then i thought. my pc needs more ram.

also did some performance and stability testing. all seems good so far :)

will upload proof-of-concept rom with good performance. but building takes some time. need more ram :)

if you have llvmgold.so compiled would you mind sharing?

I have just compiled CM12 with QCOM llvm.. Build is booting and running fine, however the android progress circle indicator has some occasional animation issues that were not present before.

Thanks for trying and reporting back.

I have the same issues with animation circle. I think it might be fvectorize-loops but could be Ofast and i have no idea which module is causing this. Maybe libpng.
