I'd say take it to your carrier store and attempt to turn it in under warranty. They will try to get it to charge, and if they can't then they'll get it repaired/replaced and save you a bunch of hassle trying to figure out how to fix it yourself.

How is that different from smart network switch? Could it be related to the problems people are having with wifi dropping when device is sleeping?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mettleh3d:
Could it be for t-mobile wifi calling and leaving a hotshot but maintaining the call
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozaghloul:
I don't have a t-mobile phone. I don't think this is related to VoLTE. Also I don't see what would be aggressive about it. My guess, and that's just a pure guess, is that it makes ur phone jump from wifi to lte or vice versa more quickly. So for example if it used to wait 10 seconds before giving up on a weak wifi signal, it would do so in 5 seconds.

First off, is your Wizard CIDunlocked? Not SIMunlocked.. CIDunlocked... you can NOT flash a custom ROM if your phone hasn't been unlocked.

If not... follow READ READ READ and follow EVERY SINGLE STEP HERE, and DO NOT SKIP ANY STEPS or you WILL brick your device.

If you don't know if it is, then chances are it ISNT.. And you are probably dangerously close to killing ur phone.

if your phone is NOT CIDunlocked you CAN NOT upgrade it. Follow the thread I put in my previous post.. follow EVERY STEP.. READ everything... and make sure you understand what you are doing, or else you will end up with a very expensive knick knack.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onemanshow85:
Hey all, I got a few questions regarding installing a custom ROM

I just unlocked, flashed a custom recovery (TWRMP) and flash superuser.

1. Can't make a nandroid backup of the stock ROM, sais the backup size is 0 bytes, is this normal?

2. can't get into recovery the old fashion way (power + volume down), instead I use ADB. I fear when I try to flash and I get into bootloop for w/e reason, I can't get into recovery at all. How can I solve this?

3. is there a no sense ROM somewhere out there?

4. What is AROMA? is it a custom recovery?

thanks in advance

We've just published a new version of our Android database app on the Google Play Store.

The new version is completely restyled and addresses Material Design guidelines by Google. Now the app looks really great and can adjust to user’s visual requirements due to availability of different color themes.

Another awesome feature is the updated Location control which can now show location entered on the map. Users can also view all locations added to the database on the map view, proceed to any entry by tapping on the marker and add new location entry by long tap on the map and adding a new marker. This is very convenient for real estate agents, property managers, travelers, couriers and other people who need to store locations.

A new version of MobiDB Database Designer is available on the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.perpetuumsoft.mobidb.lite

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I have a first generation moto g with a damaged sim slot. The moto g was used with a nano sim and, when removing the sim and adapter, I think one of the contacts on the phone got bent or damaged. Perfectly functional sim cards are not recognized by the phone at all.

Anyone have experience with replacing the sim slot? I'm not too good at soldering. The phone is not under warranty. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading my post.

Edit: I solved the problem. It turns out that the nano to micro sim adapter I was using was slightly off in terms of position for my nano sim cards. Once I tried a different adapter, the g recognizes my sim cards.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
Hello,

I'm hoping that someone can help me out with this.

Last December i bought a Fire HDX 7 (Thor). I immediatley followed the procedure to install Safestrap and the Thor Nexus ROM v2.0.1. Shortly after that my device got lost. Just last week I found it because my parents moved. After this I started looking around the internet to check if there are any 5.0 or 5.1 ROMs available. I found out they are indeed available.

What I want to do now is get rid of Safestrap, unlock the bootloader and install TWRP to be able to flash new ROMs. I want to start using TWRP because I'm used to working with TWRP.

The problem is that I can't seem to find a way to get this done, despite searching for it on this page for several hours. Can anyone help me on the right track? Would be very much appreciated.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Your options are determined by the current version of Amazon firmware installed on your device. I assume you retained Fire OS in the base slot. Boot into that and poke around settings until you find the version number (should be 13.x.x plus some other gibberish). Post what you find and we'll go from there.

Caution: You should disable wifi

immediately

after booting into Fire OS to prevent an automatic update from Amazon from spoiling your day. At minimum an update will limit future options. I can also brick your device depending on firmware level and other previous mods (including safestrap). Disabling wifi in Nexus is not sufficient as the two roms operate independently.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
Could it be that I somehow deleted the Fire OS back then? Don't really remeber what I did exactly..
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Quite possibly. Enjoy Nexus; it's a good rom. Alternatively, follow the directions to see if you still have Fire OS installed. If at/below v3.2.6 then Lollipop is possible albeit with a lot of work and significant risk to your device. Otherwise you are limited to Fire OS and Nexus.

Seriously, if you don't recall what you did and can't figure out how start Safestrap in recovery mode be happy with what you have. There are no step-by-step guides. You have to read (a lot) and be prepared for numerous setbacks including an unrecoverable brick of your now working Kindle.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
Sorry for my late response.. I just started Safestrap and can only find 1 ROM slot, the Stock ROM slot which probably means that I deleted the original OS.

I did find some files on my laptop that brought some memories back. What I did back then is downgrade the original software to version 13.3.2.6 and than to 13.3.1.0. Does this create any new possibilities?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
I just managed to create a new ROM slot and succesfully installed stock 13.3.2.6 on it, so now running on Nexus ROM and stock 13.3.2.6.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Warning: Do NOT allow Fire OS to auto-update. Doing so will likely brick your device. Short term the best way to prevent this is to only boot into Nexus. If necessary I can walk you through blocking OTA. Seriously - stay out of Fire OS for now.

I am no Safestrap expert but I believe the rom in the 'base' slot becomes the default when you uninstall Safestrap. So you may have some shuffling to do. Another concern is whether removing/reinstalling Fire OS will impact the ability to recognize the OS once Safetrap is gone. You need a functioning version of Fire OS (and recovery) to follow the 'standard' rollback/update/flash procedures.

However, there may be a shortcut. If 13.3.1.0 was the base rom just prior to installing Nexus and wiping out Fire OS you then should be able to flash twrp without further prep. That would give you access to both Nexus variants and CM11. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to determine the bootloader version which is the component that really matters. It should match the last version of Fire OS that was natively installed before you overwrite it with Nexus.

Unfortunately, the recent install of 13.3.2.6 into a safestrap slot complicates matters. I believe installs within Safestrap leaves the bootloader untouched. But I can't be sure. A misstep can leave your device in an unrecoverable condition; don't go experimenting.

Let's see which recovery you have installed. Power down the device then restart holding power + vol-up. When the grey Kindle logo appears release the power key; vol-up can be released a few seconds later. What happens after the grey logo disappears?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
I see the following:

Kindle Fire System Recovery

Your Kindle doesn't seem to be able to boot. Resetting your device to Factory defaults may help you to fix this issue.

Then I get the options to Reboot or to reset to Factory Default.

Oh, the Fire OS is not connected to any networks so it won't be able to update.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Ok - a working stock recovery. That's good.

I am conflicted on next steps. The scripted approach would have you uninstall Safestrap (assuming Fire OS had remained in slot 0), rollback to 3.1.0 and then install twrp. However, since slot 0 now contains Nexus I do not feel removing Safestrap is wise. Nor to I think reinstalling Fire OS in the base slow will yield a functioning system once Safestrap is gone.

The 'shortcut' would have you flash twrp recovery (via adb or Flashify) since your bootloader *should*_be at the right level due to a previous 3.1.0 rollback. However, if that is not correct you will end up with a borked recovery which is difficult to rectify.

In your shoes I would probably do nothing given the device is fully functional. The developer of the Nexus rom is working on a KitKat 'upgrade' which is close to being released; a Safestrap variant will hopefully follow. There's no shame in running Nexus. Upgrade to v4.4, add a few Xposed modules and you have fully supported, near AOSP environment that's only lacking a few eye candy elements from Lollipop.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
It's not that I don't like the Nexus ROM, I just like to experiment with these things..

So I just installed TWRP with Flashify (started Flashify from NEXUS) and now I seem stuck at the grey Kindle fire logo. I'm just going to leave it alone for a few hours, hopefully it boots later today.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
It still boots after a very long time, however I don't know if I get the possibility to enter recovery because it takes several hours to boot. Any more ideas?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Power down device and attempt to enter recovery by pressing power + vol-up. Release the power button after the grey logo appears; vol-up can be released after a few seconds. What happens next? Likely one of the following (good -> bad):

- blue screen followed by twrp recovery

- stock recovery with only two options: factory reset and reboot

- continuation of grey kindle logo

I'm stuck at the grey Kindle logo..
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Timmetjuh:
Did it! Managed to flash the stock bootloader, rollback and install TWRP. Now ready to flash CM11. Thanks for you help!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Congrats! Had a bad feeling after your earlier post; glad that was misplaced. Enjoy CM11 and all the goodness that comes from a liberated HDX.

At some point you should consider unlocking the bootloader. That will provide an important fail safe should things go wrong and opens the door to newer roms. Unlike previous flashes there is little/no risk in unlocking. It will either work or not with no adverse consequences. Unlocking can be a frustrating ride as the process involves multiple steps in unfamiliar territory but ultimately the benefits outweigh the effort IMO. Nothing that needs to be tackled right away but keep it on your radar ... especially if you plan to experiment with other roms.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] slothdabski:
Unlock bootloader

Hello davey,

I am also interested in getting from safestrap v4 to an unlocked bootloader in order to use a lollipop ROM. My 3rd gen hdx 7 started on 4.5.5 so I did OTA rollback to 3.2.8, upgraded to 4.5.2, then rooted and safestrapped. Unfortunately I lost my stock ROM, but I current have both CM11 and HDZ nexus v4 on 2 different ROM slots. What would be my best way to proceed? From my research so far, it would appear I need to flash hdx nexus 2.0, then flash rollback image to get to modified 3.2.4, and from there 3.1.0 stock update with will allow me to use python method to unlock BL. Is this all correct?

Thanks in advance for your guidance
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cl4ncy:
No. You can NOT unlock the bootloader! You can NOT downgrade to 3.2.4 and then further to 3.1.0/3.2.3.2! DON'T attempt to do so, you will brick your HDX!

Your only available option is to stay on 4.5.2 and use Safestrap v4 with either Nexus and/or CM11.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Unfortunately, you can not unlock your bootloader. Amazon introduced anti-rollback protection that will hard brick the device if rolled back below 3.2.8. Sorry, mate.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] slothdabski:
Thanks Davey, you have been very helpful replying to me in another thread also. My reason for seeking a ROM other, than Nexus v4 or CM11, is the kitkat bluetooth tether/VPN bug documented at code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=62714 (sorry for no direct link, xda won't let me post them yet). A "work around" is to establish a wifi connection, even if it doesnt have internet access. This, for whatever reason, allows kitkat to forward the packets to apps on the kindle. I probably could get away with plugging in an old access point at work to enable the sharing sharing of my phones data connection with my safestrap kitkit kindle, but this isn't practical outside of my workplace.

FYI, I cant share my phone's connection via wifi because its an ATT note 4 with lollipop, a locked bootloader, and no permaroot available. I doubt there's a way to tether between 2 android devices via microUSB; but i'd be open to that too!

Thanks again for your wisdom and expertise! :)
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] slothdabski:
I actually just got it working by running the following as SU in terminal emaulator

# ip route add default dev tun0 scope link

Not sure yet if I have to do this every time I tether, but if so, i think i can just make a script to execute automatically?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Hi [MENTION=6864870]slothdabski[/MENTION],

Glad you got it working! Not sure a script will work but you probably know the answer by now. Also wanted to pass along a nod of thanks for the KitKat vpn/bluetooth link. I tinkered with this awhile back but never got it to work. Now I (and others) know why. It became a moot point when I unlocked the bootloader on my phone which permitted a fully functional wifi tether including data sharing. Haven't looked back.

As a side note, even if tethering 2 android device via USB for the purpose of sharing data was possible it would NOT work for most HDX devices as OTG HW support is lacking (the lone exception seems to be 4th generation Saturn devices with LTE support).

Rumor has it CM12 *may* come to Safestrap v4. That should provide another option along with other Lollipop goodness. No word in timings; keep an eye on the HDX forums.

Appreciate the kind words but true thanks go to the devs, power users and other techies (like you) in this forum who make the magic happen and share their findings. Be sure to whack the 'thanks' button on their contributions.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] slothdabski:
Ah I didnt know there was a thanks button, so I just went back and hit it on your previous posts :)

CM12 would be awesome and appreciated, Ill def be watching the forums and keeping an eye out. But I'm really hoping for perma-root for att note 4. I love the phone, but i'm considering selling it due to the locked BL with WP. Now that I have a rooted tablet with customs ROMs, its even harder to resist selling for a rootable phone :(

EDIT: Also that command has to be run everytime a VPN is enabled, so I downloaded quick terminal and saved that command so now its just an extra 2-3 taps to get bluetooth tethering to work
