Image of Bootloader

Oh! Solved the problem! I'm able to unlock my bootloader now to reboot the phone back to normal!

(Forgot to put Unlock_code.bin in the adb folder, lol)

Thanks guys for helping out!!!! :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
Greetings.

I just got this phone recently and I'm still trying everything out.

I'm running stock 4.4.2 kitkat, the build is D80220H.

So now I'm tinkering with Google now and it's voice powered search.

When I press the microphone button it starts to listen to me and it works properly that way.

So first, my settings are:

Search language is set to English (US).

In VOICE settings, default language is set to English (US).

In Ok Google tab,

" From the Google app"

is set to ON, but it doesn't react when I say " Ok Google".

When I try to set

" From any screen"

to on, it asks me to say " Ok Google" 3 times but the microphone is off or something because it just doesn't hear me, it does not listen to me.

So basically, I can't control google now with my voice. How do I fix this?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
Anyone..?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
Tried deleting updates for "Google" app, disabled and then enabled. Nothing.

Still not hearing me when it is asking me to repeat ok google 3 times.

Seriously, no one ever encountered this on their G2?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artasdmc:
Got the fix.

You need to disable On-Screen Phone in accessibility options.

Thanks to reddit user Muhh24 for this.

Hi all.

Hey all,

for the PC, there are plenty of programs that you can use in order to send free SMSes. for example: ExtraSMS, ICQ and others.

Is there anything similar for the pocket pc?

[General Topics] Mark Crouch:
Not sure if this helps, but......

In the UK, there are services that provide a free messaging service, kinda like SMS - take a look at http://www.tex2me.com or http://www.hotxt.co.uk

They provide a Java applet that you use to send messages to other users of the service, so there's no link to the real SMS text message application in WM....might not be what you were looking for?

Don't know of anything else; like another poster suggested, maybe your only option is to use a browser to access one of the online sites?

Mark.
[General Topics] Rudegar:
think the problem is that sms is point to point cellphone network based

and gprs is the internet

somebody needs to act as gateway from the internet to the cellphone network

the cellphone the sms could be the "free" sms is being sendt to could be without gprs at all or simply offline

those free sites offer that gateway

and they most likely make money on the adds on their sites

so i'm not sure they would be happy to have people access their services without being exposed to their adds

and their interfaces are prob different from eachother so if a real application was made it would be different depending on what free sms network it would access
[XDA Assist] :
Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (SGH-I777) that will not enter Recovery mode, no matter how much I try. I tried holding the [Power+Vol up+Vol dn] combo and it doesn't work at all. I can enter recovery mode by holding all three buttons and connecting a USB cord when the buttons flash.

Here's the full story: The phone didn't use to start up at all. I tried using batteries from my friends S2 (I9100) and switched on the device while I charged the original battery separately. One of my friends who was familiar with flashing, put the original software back on it but later put CyanideL on it. The ROM worked perfectly and everything worked, except that the phone wouldn't charge when switched off. I forgot to charge it for two days and it wouldn't later turn on. I tried switching to a charged battery and the OS wouldn't boot. My friend said he could return to stock and he flashed the original software again, but we couldn't access the recovery.

I tried flashing I777 UCKH7 Return/Unbrick to Stock (or Root) Odin3 One-Click Downloaders from ( http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20229527 ). The phone would boot then to a SAMSUNG logo that would turn off after sometime, which was expectedly what happened when my friend flashed the stock ROM. Searching through the forums there were cases where it was reported that such problems could occur with faulty boot loaders. So I flashed I777UCMD8 Stock Binaries from the same thread. Same results ensued. I tried flashing different packages from the thread after reading their description, using ODIN V3 1.85. I only used the PDA option. Nothing seems to bring back recovery mode. All the buttons do work, I think. If however, I flash CWM recovery, the screen changes back to the SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 boot screen and stays there for a few minutes and restarts again.

What do I do to get my phone back up? I couldn't find people who couldn't get in to Recovery mode? Most were using the wrong combos for Recovery or could access the OS itself. I can't access the OS and my button combos doesn't work at all.

Hi everyone.

Has anyone tried to root the Hp 10-2101(la) Tablet? I've tried with Kingo Root but I don't have the right drivers to install the ADB of said tablet and I have no idea if kingo works.

If someone can help, thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] Ignacio Hz:
Could you root the tablet?:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] NFSP G35:
I've been trying to get mine rooted.

KingRoot from Windows worked (the APK did not) and got root, but...

...whenever I reboot, it hangs on the HP boot animation, then I have to flash a factory image. So somewhat useless right now.

I also tried rooting and then immediately un-rooting with KingRoot, but it still bootlooped.

Couldn't get KingORoot to work (APK or Windows) and Framaroot didn't work either.
[General Questions and Answers] Mikey3103:
I did and rooted with kingo, but the root damaged three HP 10 firmwares without being able to repair. Yes I sent them back to HP and they gave me two new units until they figured out what I was doing. I am on my third firmware damaged tablet. But the root did work though.

Just did it, thank you very much! Bought me a N4 off of Swappa with Lollipop already installed and after a few days deciding to revert to see if the battery life is better and how the experience differs.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
I have always gotten better battery life from KK than L.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dmxoneIuv:
i PREFER KK 4.4.4 on the Note 4

finally downgraded after contemplating doing this for a week or 2 now b/c of a few bugs and sluggishness i noticed with lollipop, not to mention battery life and even handoffs between 4g and 3g. just my personal experience but thought i'd chime in.

thanks for the super easy directions to follow. mine didn't happen to bootloop at all but everything else is back the way i like it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rushless:
What?! Lollipop is the greatest thing evah! Battery life is 50% better and ditto for performance!!!!!!!!! :good::highfive::fingers-crossed::silly::victory::eek::p;);)

Well, that is how both Android team and the lemmings in the media call it at least. The media STILL has the nerve of exclamation points when announcing Lollipop status on devices.

All Android is doing is trying to get as close to being Apple as they can without saying it. Now the device makers are following suit. It does not help that the most creepy Apple fetish company

called Samsung also eagerly follows suit. Note 4 is a probably the last true great non Apple-like device by Samsung, but still tainted by Lollipop's pure suckiness.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Tepidlake:
Is it possible to take 1st part of update only and remain on KK?

So, I HATED Lollipop, downgraded back to KK and blocked OTA's. Now everything is wonderfull again. :) But I would like to use the Advanced Calling features, which I believe were the first part of the 2 part OTA.

Does anyone know if taking only the first part of the OTA will enable Advanced Calling (VoLTE) while remaining on KK? Or does the second part provide the necessary UI to utilize the new capability?

Has anyone tried this?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
Advanced Calling is not an option on NK5 4.4.4 firmware, just for the 5.0.1 firmware.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] satseaker:
I guess my Note 4 must be different, since the update my battery last longer, 50% that is, speed is about the same, root will never happen so lollipop is good for me and I am sure the minor bugs will be fixed in the near future. Everyone complained about kitkat and now about lollipop but the biggest winner is the ability to write to the SD card

Soooo, I'm currently going back and forth with this. When it comes to speed, my Note 4 is DEFINITELY faster on Kit Kat, but at the same time, I loveee the material design baked into Lollipop. I'm currently on Lollipop, but I'm contemplating going back to KK again. I miss the stability :((

I was also, but so far, I'm much happier on kk. It took me a while to make up my mind, but I was tired of the freezing and pausing.. I just need to run the script to stop the Ota..

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] shusuke028:
I know right! I honestly started hating my phone on lollipop. I went back to kit kit, and I'm currently falling back in love with it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rushless:
You still can't write to the card with Lollipop with non stock apps in any practical way. There is no way to write to the sd card as we could in pre Kitkat. It is SUPPOSED to come with M, but they said the same thing with Lollipop. Besides mainly lemmings in the media, the general consensus is Lollipop is a relative resource hog that also kills Flash. I side with that view and tempted to start from scratch to go back to Kitkat, root and then get REAL card writes. :)

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

The video does not correlate to the process defined by the OP. Different for Verizon?

Also, does the Gear VR work after rolling back? The actual Gear firmware is in a later 4.4.4 update and no out of box.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
That video is for a different version of the note 4. Really the only thing done differently than the op instructions is going I to recovery and wiping user data before flashing the firmware in odin. I have not tried the process in that order, but have completed the process in the op at least 4 times with success every time. I know the NJ5 firmware has Gear VR services installed, but haven't tried it. The NJ5 is the 4.4.4 firmware before the two part update to lollipop. Technically the first update to 5.0.1 is still 4.4.4 firmware ending in NK5.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dpoverlord:
whats the benefit of 4.4.4 for us considerin there is no root?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
Everyone has different reasons for wanting to roll back. There is root it is temp root, but that is still root. For me personally, I get batter battery life and better mobile signal on 4.4.4 than on 5.0.1. Plus, temp root is of interest to me. Others have posted that they had a lot of issues with the 5.0.1 update with slowness or other random issues. So really, it is up to you to as to why you would want to roll back.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] madchainsawer:
Is this for the retail or developer note 4

I'm just now attempting to do this. When I try to boot into Download Mode, I get the following screen:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JOSHSKORN:
Ok so I suppose kind should have asked this question. ..

Should I bypass this alert by pressing the Up volume button? Will I then see the menu I thought I was going to see in the first place?

I seem to remember pressing those 3 keys when I was still on KK and not seeing this alert message.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
Yes, press volume up and it will take you to download mode.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JOSHSKORN:
You were wrong in my case, I was stuck at "Downloading...DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!" There was no menu to display and select

Download Mode

from.

Now, what?

Since I pulled the battery out just to bring my phone back to life, I checked out my SKU, I did verify that I do in fact own the Retail edition of the phone.

Edit - OK, I may be a noob. I was under the impression that I would see a menu which would allow me to do a number of things, like, wipe, FDR and go into Downloade Mode. Is what I described above, ACTUALLY download mode?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] clownin72:
Ok I know this will be a newbie question but want to make sure I do this right the first time because it's been a long time. Do I download the Odin, firmware, and 7 zip to my computer or phone?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] stillthisguy:
I was not wrong in your case, you booted into download mode, just as I said. Your edit clarifies that I wasn't wrong. Download mode is used for flashing the firmware through odin. Recovery is where you can Wipe cache, FDR, flash OTA zip files.

On your windows computer. You will also need the Samsung drivers if you don't already have them installed.

Ok thanks. I will have to find and download the Samsung drivers as well.

My battery life seemed fine...and all was well for a long time...then I started getting freezing and slow to open apps...Did a factory reset and all was well again..started getting the dimming screen issue where it would just dim for a few seconds then return to the setting I had it set to (I don't use auto) then 2 weeks ago I started noticing it overheating so much I practically couldn't use my gear VR for more than a few minutes. The straw that broke the camel's back was just out of no where it's started being so laggy in the morning time it would take a reboot to fix but would start again later on the day. I have a hand full of apps I use and hadn't downloaded anything that I could trace to the issues. Since the revert, it's like a whole new device.

"Failed"

Damned, six pages and not one failure... what the hell? I tried it three times and it fails. The phone goes into download mode fine, Odin lights up and shows it's communicating, I can press the "AP" button and select the md5 file, the action window says "wait" for about a minute and the md5 filename and location show up in the "AP" window. I hit "Start" and the "Com" box lights like it's talking but then after about 15 seconds, the phone says "Fail" and Odin's com box turns red and says "Fail". It doesn't really give a reason, just says "Fail". The connection is fine because I was able to do a backup with Kies prior to starting this. I closed Kies to make sure it wasn't stealing the com connection. Again, Odin seems to communicate, it just doesn't perform the download? Any ideas... I hate being the first failure!!!

Thanks,

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JOSHSKORN:
I'm sure someone more qualified will come along and provide better assistance than I can. Let me ask you something. When you plug your phone into your computer, does it recognize your phone through Windows Explorer? Can you access the files? What other programs and services do you have running that might interfere with the process? I know nothing about Kies so I'm no help there. Maybe even though you think it's stopped, maybe it's running. See if there's a Windows Service associated with Kies and make sure it's stopped before you try anything. Window Key + R and type in services.msc in the Run box.
