Guys, I'm frustrated now. I've refreshed the ROM of my G4 version of Dopod 818pro (2.15.0001 or something I just can't remember). Unfortunately it fails and I cannot even turn the power on. My WinCE colleague told me that the Boot Loader was damaged. I am now seeking for some place to re-program the chip and hope if someone can provide me boot loader program. I really appreciate your guys help!!!
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
Are your Bootloader Realy damage? You mean you cant enter it? Or you havent Power to start your Device?

SD Flashing doesnt work without Bootloader!!

JTAG Flashing (hardware nearest Flashing!!) isnt developed for G4 Plattform. (i think so ... look in the Wizard board ... they talk about JTAG flashing and Wizard G4 must simulare like Prophet G4!!)
[G4] ericchen07:
the bootloader really damaged, I cannot enter the three stripe screen by holding CAM, PWR button and hit reset hole. Do you mean that I even cannot use JTag to burn the chip???
[G4] ericchen07:
I do have two fully charged batteries. But it should not be a problem of battery, I tried to connect it to charger but it gives no response, no LED
[G4] bwesty:
Using JTAG to revive a wizard is either a myth, or an undiscovered secret. If you cant get into bootloader, your chances of reviving your device are slim.
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
JTAG isnt a secret ... its more like ... hardware knowlage. If you know what IC is your ROM. You can found over the IC Spec the right Pins for JTAG Programming. If i can get a G4 S200, i can try my best.
[G4] ericchen07:
yes, I know that using Jtag to rewrite boot loader is complex, but it seems like it's my last chance. NetrunnerAT I really appreciate your help but I'm in Shanghai, China so I have to find someone locally who can help me with that. Wish me good luck and I'll keep you guys updated about the result
[G4] ericchen07:
If I can find someone who can help Jtag my phone, where can I find the correct bootloader program for my cell? is it downloadable?
[G4] ericchen07:
guys, I finally found a place to revive my prophet. However, they don't know how to jtag it either, neither do they have a programer to rewrite the chip because they say the programer is very very very expensive. They just changed the old chip with one which has correct ROM and now my G4 Prophet turns to a G3 one...anyway, I can use it now.

Thx!:)
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
o_O

You have change your rom and it is now G3!!

Can you say me what IC they have exchange! If i know it ... and get a damage device, its possible to found a solution for all Prophet users!
[G4] ericchen07:
No problem, I kept the damaged IC at home, I'll check the model No. and will let you know :)

er... One more question, I want to dump the current ROM to my SD card, however the wiki doc says it needs to unlock G3 first. But another doc also says unlocking G3 will downgrade my OS to 1.0.13.21. It's like a kind of deadlock, can I just unlock G3 without changing OS?
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
uhm ... i think you must downgrade your OS first to CID unlock ... after that you can upgrade to your rom and make SD-Dump!
[G4] ericchen07:
ok, then that is to say i'll never be able to get a backup of the ROM I currently have.

I'll wait for some weeks and will try to "torture" my prophet again. It was just fixed and I'm supposed to "rest" it for some days, but sooner or later it'll be unlocked, hey heyhey....
[G4] ericchen07:
Hi, I'm back, the chip is a "M-System MD8832-d16-v3-xp" with a clearly name "Disk On Chip" on it, hope this can help you locate the chip:)
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
http://www.m-systems.com/NR/rdonlyr.../0/EOL_DOC_G3_P3.pdf|EOL_DiskOnChip_G3_P3.pdf

Cool ... i read some PDFs ... this is are very nice entry in the PDF!

Compatibility Issues

The recommended replacement, DiskOnChip G4 1Gb/2Gb 9x12mm FBGA, and H1 2Gb

12x18mm FBGA are ball to ball compatible with DiskOnChip G3/P3 7x10mm, 9x10mm FBGA

products that are being discontinued. It is necessary to upgrade software based on TrueFFS 6.2.x

to TrueFFS 6.3.2 and above when upgrading to DiskOnChip G4.

If the different betwen G3 and G4 is the TrueFFS Driver and the G4/H1 is Pin Conpatibel ... possible if i get a half damage device i try to solder a H1 DOC on the PBC and reformat it.

[edit]Holly ****! THX i have found the Migration Document with JTAG Pins!!!

http://www.m-systems.com/NR/rdonlyr...MigrationGuideDOC_G4_1Gb_to_H3_1Gb_Rev0.2.pdf
[G4] yanuk:
how are you going to access the pins on a FBGA?
[G4] Midget_1990:
you dont. you take a bricked one, de-solder it, and manually trace them to somewhere on the motherboard using a multimeter.
[G4] londere:
can any body help me with a jtag points for a g4 wizard doomed with a incorrect ipl
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
Give me a damage Wizard board and i say the JTAG Pins! G4 and G3 have the same JTAG Pins.

I search for a damage Prophet to but i doesnt want pay over 80€ for a community project without any payment. It some on give me a wizard or prophet Board ... i desolder the IC ... search for JTAG Pins ... and reflash it ... send it back but working :->

the device doesnt damage if i resolder the DOC ... i have the right soldering mashine.
[G4] sun123:
NetrunnerAT

Where you saw on DOC points jtag ?

You need the signals TDO TCK TMS TRST TDI.

DOC only memory and there no these signal.

What jtag you will use? And no program for flash DOC through jtag - see about Universal jtag.
[G4] londere:
guy read the therar on the wizard forum there is the ****ing point but i need the software and the machine to complete my task
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
read the DOC pdf ... you found jtag pins to write the DOC directly :-> this has sense ... JTAG means "programm in circuit" <- (my english is bad ... its more what it mean!)

with out a board to desolder you can develop any thing :-> software to get is easy ... 10 sec google and you found all what you need!
[G4] sun123:
NetrunnerAT

Well -If you such clever -find me testpoints in pdf and copy in topic and searching for of the program for flash DOC through jtag (wiggler).

That has found the person?

See pdf - no point P1 , N1 in DOC.

M1 and L1 this M (Mechanical) . These balls are for mechanical placement, and

are not connected internally.

That is found ?
[G4] NetrunnerAT:
P1 Test Data In (JTAG).

M1 Test Data Out (JTAG).

L1 Test Mode Select (JTAG).

N1 Test Clock (JTAG).

The RSRVD JTAG balls will only be enabled on special versions of the mDOC H3 devices that will be used for debugging severe system

problems. In order to support this feature, the JTAG balls should be brought out to a separate header or test points. The JTAG RSRVD

balls must not be connected to the JTAG scan chain that is used for the rest of the PCB. If not used they should be left floating.

This are not the right JTAG Pins ... this is for debugging!

Doc isnt possible to write via jtag, not direct! next ... doc is possible to switch in a write protected mode, if htc use them ... i see no way to read it!
[G4] jani51:
Hello.

I would be enquiring you managed to get onto something the j-tag test pointal ?

Somebody managed to find it the correct tying up.

I say thank you for your help.

[G4] scholbert:
Hi NetrunnerAT,

Do you have any idea or hints how to access or reflash a mDOC G3 using JTAG?

We started some experiments on bricked universal.

Please have a look here:

I just managed to switch the G3 into normal mode and gained access to the registers :D.

Any help would be appreciated!

Has anyone seen an app to change the screen resolution?

I have a 2nd gen Moto X with a 5.2 inch screen and sometimes I have trouble using the phone with one hand. I'm worried I'm going to drop it while trying to get my thumb across the screen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
[MENTION=4143509]rcrh[/MENTION], you can try either NOMone Resolution Changer or Resolution Changer Pro, both free on the Play store.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcrh:
Thanks, I looked at NOMone and it didn't work. I'll look at the other one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcrh:
Just tried both of these and neither changed the resolution on my motot x (2014). It could be user error but they seem pretty straight forward.

Anyone have another suggestion?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcrh:
So I did some more hunting based on seeing this on a Samsung s5. They calm it one handed mode. That lead me to an xposed mod that does what I want. Unfortunately I can't root my Republic wireless phone so I'm out of luck.

The hunt continues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shmoa:
I have a very weird problem on my S3 and I have looked everywhere and I can't figure out what's wrong.

I have a stock unrooted S3 on 4.4.2. Recently I took the phone overseas and had it unlocked, I don't know quite how the person unlocked it, but when I got it back it was having a lot of problems. All my Data was wiped, but still unrooted but showing many errors. I was having an error every time I opened my contacts saying android.process.acore has stopped. I was also having trouble getting signal with a local sim card, at the time I thought it was some setting I didn't know about or that it was the network that was messed up. Then when I got home I continued to have with my at&t network, always showing no signal and no data, when I did have signal it would cut out in a few min and when I got Data it was only 2g.

So what I did was install a stock rooted rom that I had been using before, this rom took care of a lot of the errors but wifi doesn't work on it, so I had to install a kernel which was verson 3.4.0-g2d4cae8 ktoonsez, this took care of the wifi problem.

Then I looked around a lot for reasons that my network wasn't working. One potential problem was APN, I checked that and mine was correct. There was also a problem listed with IMEI and that was fine on my phone too. Then I finally found that sometimes you can reinstal NV items and that can fix your network issues. So I found a site that had NV items to fix LTE and flashed that on my phone through odin. That actually took care of my network issue! I can get network now and get LTE, luckily saving my phone from being completely useless.

Now I have a completely diff issue and I don't know if I'm missing something similar to that to fix it.

What happens is that I constantly only have 1 signal bar, then when I start making a call or send a text I all of a sudden have 4 or 5 bars. So I have signal, but somehow its not registering properly. I would be okay with this considering my phone is at least letting me make calls even though it takes a bit longer to connect, but the problem is that it's been heating up a lot and the battery has been dying 3 times a day when it used to last an entire day. Looking up this problem I found that this problem is common when you have no signal. Also when I think when I am closer to a tower then my phone has 3 bars most of the time and the battery lasts longer, aka when I was in downtown Houston I only had to charge my phone once during the day as opposed to 2 times.

Anyone have any Idea how I might be able to fix this problem. My mom had her phone unlocked the same way but she is still on official stock rom with root, and is having the same problem, so I'm pretty sure it was the unlocking process and something similar to the NV items. Maybe I needed to install a whole NV items file instead of just the LTE segment? Sorry this was so long, and maybe rambling. Let me know if you guys need any more information.

Hey guys, please all the users of desire 820s here can share their battery life? Cause im very unhappy with mine.

Cant complete a single day with full recharge and moderate use.
[Desire 820 General] s4b3r:
I have the 820 and i can get easily 2 days.

If you use games and youtube, the battery will drain rapidly, of course.

Have you tried the Battery Saving mode under Settings?

The phone won't get laggy at all and the battery lasts a lot longer.

I have always used the Battery Saving mode on all my HTC devices.

Greenify is a another sleek app which can put certain apps to sleep like facebook.

That disables also the app notifications, but your battery will thank you.

I hope I could help you.
[Desire 820 General] TheEndHK:
820s used MTK cpu while regular 820 used s610. Not sure if any different there regarding battery life but sometimes MTK even more battery friendly than Qualcomm cpu. Please notice that if you get used the dual sim function in 820s, I think it will spend extra battery too.
[Desire 820 General] m.jordan89:
I don't have the device, just stalking the page to observe the development, or lack thee of in this case. But there will possibly, be a striking difference in battery life since all the new quadcomm chips have been designed with battery life/battery management as a huge focus. .... no offence to mediateck but i'm not a huge fan, and have no real faith in their operation an overall longevity
[Desire 820 General] TheEndHK:
The current Qualcomm 64bit architecture of s610/615/810 isn't battery friendly, that's why the battery life on 820/826 isn't good.
[Desire 820 General] moizsami:
Unfortunately 820s doesnt have these features of battery saving mode..its newrly a stock rom with just very little features of Sense is available..I dont know why they di that..I would have not bought the phone if I knew this..

And I havent installed a single game on my phones..
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
Yes the battery life of desire 820s is a bit mediocre. But otherwise the phone is awesome & I am loving it. ☺
[Desire 820 General] scotyard:
I hate that it does not have the full sense version. Crappy music player, no weather app. no power saving modes, no notification bar toggle management are some of the flaws that I am coming across my new purchase. Even I would've gone with the qualcomm version had I known this before.

Edit: And like you said, battery life is poor to say the least with up to three charges required in a day!!!
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
Let's hope that when the lollipop update will arrive for desire 820s it will address these issues. Kitkat ain't really optimized for 64 bit processor so maybe lollipop would improve battery life.
[Desire 820 General] scotyard:
Totally! And to think this bloody phone similar to 820, does not have Boom Sound speakers!!!!!! Plus, no gorilla glass either!!!! I'm happy with its performance for now but I still feel cheated :mad:
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
Really? I thought it had those two things. What I've read on the net is that the only difference is that it has a superior processor when compared to the desire 820 model.
[Desire 820 General] scotyard:
I'll take it back. HTC does mention on it's website that it has BoomSound speakers but I didn't find any toggle on my phone that I could see on the Desire 820.
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
The sound quality is still pretty good though. The only main issue with this model is that it isn't really getting much attention from the xda developers. Otherwise the design & specs of this phone are pretty awesome IMHO.
[Desire 820 General] mannulko:
Has desire 820s got sense 6 & power saving mode? And what is the screen on time u are getting with desire 820s
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
It has a standby intelligent power saving option in the battery menu. And I guess the sense version 6.
[Desire 820 General] mannulko:
Can u pls tell the screen on time?
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
I can get one day on battery easily on my phone unless I go too heavy on gaming & watching videos. I am not exactly sure which stat you are asking for but I can post a screenshot if you are interested.

Hello every one. 2 days ago i bought htc 820s. but there is little prob. phone has 16gb space but almost 8gb is system using. i hve lolipop 5.0.2. any body have same prob??? is this any bug or some prob in my mob??

Reply me plz
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
It probably has to do with lollipop. You should get a good SD card if you want more space.

And if I may ask, how well is lollipop running on your phone? :)
[Desire 820 General] 9fuad6:
It's Lollipop now and the battery is even worse. Don't allow you to surf internet smoothly. Becomes so hot within 2-3 min. I will destroy it for sure to get rid of a big sin.

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

Don't worry mate. It was same over here as well. So what my experience says- it will consume the whole 16 GB soon. Just wait and watch. Never try HTC again if you r a real man/girl.
[Desire 820 General] Salman Babri:
Where did you get lollipop for 820s? Custom rom or official update?
[Desire 820 General] 9fuad6:
Official Update on July/August 2015 may be. My one is made in Taiwan. If you get an Indian version that will not allow you to have this update. However its 5.0.1 which means you cannot upgrade to 6.0. For that you have to get a 5.1 update which is not allowed for this device.. I've somehow managed the battery life. Closed all location options along with GPS and using only wifi and social medias on UC or Opera mini browser. Unstalled all social media apps. Now I can 2 days standby battery life. It's now like a symbian mobile to me and I'm bound to do it. Eagerly waiting for the iOS update on September. Will kick on HTC's ass with all my power then.
[Verizon LG G3] christianstudebaker:
I bought a Verizon lg g3 from swappa.com and the guy said it has bump twrp installed on it. From what I've read it's just a method of recovery. I want to be able to flash any compatible rom that's available but it sounds like with bump I'll only be able to flash bump Roms. Is there a way to revert back to stock and unlock the boot loader a regular way and flash normally from there, or am I stuck using bump? Can I just flash any compatible rom such as cyanogenmod with it having bump? Even the cyanogenmod nightlies?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hypock1:
Hi guys

(SM-N9005)

So yesterday I had liquid smooth rom installed for the past month or so (I have been trying a variety of roms for the last year or so) and I was getting some bugs occuring and decided to put a new rom on.

I booted into recovery, did the normal backup, factory restore, clear cache and dalvik, installed the rom and restarted my phone. It then went into a boot loop.

At this point I assumed it was no biggy, so I just went back to recovery and chose to restore with the backup... except it wouldnt. it couldnt recognise the file it had just made.

So I then coppied some previous backups to the external micro sd, stuck the micro sd card in, booted in recovery and tried to recover with them... couldnt recognise them.

I also noticed that when trying to reboot, it came up saying that I didn't have root access... even though I certainly have for the past year.

I tried flashing an updated version of superuser as that was the suggested method on some forum - didnt help the situation.

Now when my phone boot loops, it goes straight to android system recovery <3e> and nolonger have access to CWM

No idea what to do, and my uni work greatly depends on me having access to my phone :/

Any help would be greatly appreciated

[AT&T LG G3] aybarrap1:
Finally ran into my first really dumb move today while messing with my phone (after 5 years of working with rooting and customization on android). A while back I changed one thing in my build.prop on rooted stock 4.4, but I had made a backup of the file first. Without thinking about just changing the one thing back to default, I replaced the back up file. Now my phone gets past the initial LG screen and just black after that with the flashing LED. Will the unroot method here bring my phone back to life? Pretty sure it will work as I am still on 4.4 but just want to make sure so I don't permabrick. I was planning on updating to Android L anyway so no biggee to me to lose apps and data as I have already made a backup.

EDIT: The method in question did work...flawlessly. My apologies for I should have read deeper.
[AT&T LG G3] JeffDC:
Glad it was solved.
[XDA Assist] :
I bricked my Galaxy Note 2 trying to root it. It was at version 4.1.2, and I was using CASUAL. It's now stuck trying to boot up the "Samsung Galaxy Note 2" screen just repeating over and over again. I tried flashing it with Odin, and it fails to write to NAND during boot.img. So, I'm wondering what my play is at this point.

I'm flashing to stock 4.1.2 with Odin 3.07. I've tried different USB cables, different ports, different versions of Odin. I've tried it with the battery in, with the battery out. I've tried accessing recovery mode (I can't). I've tried restarting my computer, updating Samsung Drivers, installing Kies, and just about every other suggested troubleshooting tip I could find, with no success. So, I'm pretty sure it's a paperweight now.

I can upgrade my phone and get something new, but with all the talk of locked boot loaders, and bounties for root, I'm not sure what I'd even get. I was considering an HTC M8 since they're free w/ 2 yr right now, but if I can't mess with custom roms down the line, or won't be able to root it, I feel like I'm back to being stuck on iOS. So, can somebody suggest a good upgrade to the Note 2 that won't be a total pain to mod? Or, even better, a fix for a bricked SCH-i605 Galaxy Note 2 on Verizon that can't enter recovery mode, or successfully flash with Odin?

Thanks.
