[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minionhunter:
Hi,

My Note Pro 12.2 P900 64gb is now stuck on the samsung screen of booting up and I am wondering if anyone can help me figure out what to do next.

I was experiencing the flickering issue for the last two weeks which got progressively worse and eventually caused random rebooting. One time last week it started booting slower and then it wiped out some widgets on my start screen and the apps in touchwiz but most everything else was OK. Then yesterday it would not boot up past the samsung screen. It charges up OK, and I can get to Odin where it asks if I want to load another operating system by holding power and vol up. But unless it is plugged in, just holding power off puts it in a boot loop.

The other part is if it is stuck and I hold power off it usually vibrates twice before boot looping.

I rooted the tablet when I got it, but still run stock touchwiz, I just needed some rooted apps namely LMT pie controls.

Can anyone please point me towards what to do next. Thank you very much for your help.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADM!RAL:
I guess wiping data and factory reset is your only solution right now

I shall warn you you could lose your data so I hope you already have a backup!

And also I've read that lollipop fixed flickering issue in p900 devices

I hope everything goes well for you

Good luck

When power on, try pressing on the back, near the center with your hand. to see if it can boot normally,

Keep pressing while power on. if it works I will tell you what causing this problem.

here you can look by the minute 2:30 where the connector is located, basically under the samsung logo. I'm not doing tests yet because i have a busy day ahead
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minionhunter:
Thank you all for the responses. Holding down the back while powering on does not help. I do have the flickering thing and that started leading up to this. Lay night I took it the battery and disconnected it for a half hour and that did not help. Looking at the connections with a 20x hand lens did not reveal any cracks.

I don't remember how to wipe the data off the device, I got it right when it came out rooted it with cf root and never got around to twrp. All I wanted was LMT and Xposed. I never even updated the OS.

If anyone can help walk me through this to get it running again I'll send you a green poetic skin used once or a white well used GumDrop hideaway case I tested for work. I just would like to get this running instead of needing to purchase a new one.

Thank you again. Sincerely.

Flickering screen is caused by cracked battery connector which cannot be seen under magnified glass. Re solder will fix it, trust me I did fix some of them
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minionhunter:
So resolder the 6 posts connecting the battery connector to the motherboard? Is there anything special I need to do that, just my soldering iron with a fine tip and solder? Anything special I need about the solder or do I need a wik or anything? The last time I did any soldering work was about 25 years ago.

Also will this fix the bootlooping and hanging on booting up at the Samsung word on the screen? If it is not going to fix that problem, maybe I should look at something else first.

Thank you very much again for your help.

Sincerely
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minionhunter:
Ok I'll try to resolder it this weekend and report back. I think that my pertinent problem is that I have both the battery issue AND another problem that the tablet won't boot up at all but I will try the battery fix first and see what happens. Then I will report back.

Thank you very much for your suggestions.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beut:
Your feedback is very important as I see many " Hit and Run " users, they get the solution they need but never post back. Your first priority is fixing the battery connector, then next is the battery if problem persists.

This is a hardware defect I have seen in many Samsung tablets: battery capacity fluctuation, quick discharge, auto reboot, auto shutdown.......all come from battery connector . Read the threat Flickering Screen you'll see others try all solutions but never work because they don't know this is a hardware problem coming from this tiny connector.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissat4motion:
I've tried it on several different ROMs and each time the same error. Any ideas?

Steps I take:

Clear davlik/cache

Flash update ROM

Flash Gapps

Reboot

On start up there the error and in the apps drawer some Google apps are missing including play store...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
redownload your rom and gapps first of all. now what rom are you trying to flash dirty over what rom? to me it sounds like your gapps arent getting flashed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissat4motion:
I'm only dirty flashing updates to whatever current ROM I'm using but it's happened with Carbon and just recently Candy5.

.. Using Banks dynamic gapps from 5-27 btw
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
do you have an older version of banks gapps? id try those. if you are missing google apps, and the play store, then its a gapps issue. can try otjer gapps as well
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissat4motion:
Makes sense. Just remembered it also happened when updating Pure Nexus as well. Odd it's only happening with the dirty flash and not clean installs tho
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Thats because most roms work better imo after a clean install, backup and restore your apps and its data with TB and it only takes about 5 minutes to restore ;)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissat4motion:
That's the way I used to do it.. a few phones ago, but I've never really had a problem until now with the dirty flash. I'll try a different gapps package and if that fails TB.. I actually used it recently just because of this issue.

Appreciate the help
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
"better"? how? i dirty flash just about everything, no issues here, ever. the only issue that i see it being is the gapps package, and that occasionally happens. i did the gapps testing for banks when he started making gapps again. compilation errors do occur on occasion.

even though i do understand what you are trying to say, in reality thete is no " better", theres a done and a not done ;)

[Moto X Q&A] Maximum Bob Lutz:
Hi All,

I have a non-developer edition AT&T Moto X and I'm thinking about going the route of a custom rom now that it's slowed down a bit since it was new. I've had 4 or 5 android phones in the past, and this is the first one that I have not rooted/modified. So, I suppose my question is, if I'm currently on 4.4.4 with my bootloader locked, will I hinder my ability to later root and flash a new rom if I take the upgrade to 5.1?

Thanks for the help!
[Moto X Q&A] M973:
If you are wondering if you can root or unlock your phone to use a custom ROM, I'm pretty sure for that device there isn't currently any way to root or unlock it, there may be some temporary root methods, but don't really know, but unlocking the bootloader would only be if a new exploit is found with Sunshine, or if the China middleman reappears, which is how I unlocked
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellinside:
I am a field tech and work with Sprint signal mostly. The S5 will camp on band 41 ( 2.5) not allowing me to see the other 2 LTE bands. Trying to analyse the LTE signal for in building is getting almost impossible since they have not released an amp for 2.5 and in florida thats what i mostly see in metro areas. I am using an S5 and need to know if there is a way to lock the phone onto an LTE band and then unlock it
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
##data#, edit, enter msl, enable and disable whatever bands you want. At least i believe thatll work
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellinside:
Wow that was easy. The only draw back I see is that band 25 is not in the list only 26 and 41.

No way to turn off 25 to only look at 26:confused:

I have a very expensive piece of data collection software XCal Mobile from Accuver ($10,000.00) is expensive to a small company like us that i am evaluating that will allow me to turn on or off every LTE Band not just Sprint. Any clues as to where they are manipulating the phone to make it do that.

Once again thanks for the leap forward in my endeavors. And yes at this point so new to working with the technology and not just the RF i do kinda feel like a doofus
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
i know theres a way to enable band 25, just cant remember atm.

also, i believe that the lte bands are hardcoded into each device hence why there isnt a LTE hack similar to the 3g prl hack

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhyghtman:
Hi everyone. I was having my s3 I9300 (stock rom; never rooted before) for like 2 years & with no flaw. Two weeks ago, I noticed that after it gets really battery low, the screen starts flickering weird horizontal lines, but it never freezes and shuts off.

However, 2 days ago, I was downloading something using the stock browser (blue earth icon), soon after, i turned the wifi off only to find out that my downloading was still going (downloading some album from tusfile.com) then in a blink of an eye, the moment I immediately turned it back on, the screens starts showing "flickering movement (just horizontal lines)" then immediately freezed. I was waiting for like 50 minutes, then decided to remove the battery.

After putting it back, then turned it on, "flickering" then freezes, then shuts itself off (i repeated the cycle twice or thrice, but it keeps doing the same sh*t) . After 10 minutes without putting the battery, i put it back in, turned it on. But this time, as soon as it got turned on, i immediately locked the screen by pressing the power button once (i just turned the screen off just to make the screen black)

After 10 minutes, i decided to use it again & everything was fine. The moment i tried the app "screen filter" just to darken the screen up, then the whole sh*t started again. I will never use that app again.

After 10 minutes of removing the battery, switched to recovery mode (in that mode, That green android was seemed lying down, it says "no command", & with a big red exclamation mark, he seemed dead) then I wiped the "cache partition", then factory reseted it, turned it on & everything was okay.

Since my phone was factory reseted, I download some app (Google Keep) and that app wanted me to update "Google Play Service". I was updating it fine, after it reached 87%, the whole sh*t started again but this time, I TOTALLY CANT TURN THE SYSTEM ON AGAIN!, unless i clear the "cache partition", then turned it on again. I repeated the cycle again, then decided to stop rely on Google Play again.

Then whole same thing happened when i was using G mail. Then Google Play. Then Play Service.

Shall I root my phone? Flash it to "CM12.1?

Thank you very much.

[Xposed General] arnabJ:
Hello,

I am trying to get a *.9.png from sd card in my xposed module.

The Image loads and is set where I need it to be but it gets stretched.

I tried this:

resparam.res.setReplacement("com.whatsapp", "drawable", "input", new XResources.DrawableLoader() {
@Override
public Drawable newDrawable(XResources mRes, int id) throws Throwable {
XSharedPreferences prefs = new XSharedPreferences("in.proficientapps.uwte.trial", "saveImage");
String imagePath = prefs.getString("mImage", null);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath);
byte[] chunk = bitmap.getNinePatchChunk();
//boolean result = NinePatch.isNinePatchChunk(chunk);
if (chunk == null) {
XposedBridge.log("Chunk is empty");
return Drawable.createFromPath(imagePath);
} else
return new NinePatchDrawable(bitmap, chunk, new Rect(), null);
}
});

and this:

resparam.res.setReplacement("com.whatsapp", "drawable", "input", new XResources.DrawableLoader() {
@Override
public Drawable newDrawable(XResources mRes, int id) throws Throwable {
XSharedPreferences prefs = new XSharedPreferences("in.proficientapps.uwte.trial", "saveImage");
String imagePath = prefs.getString("mImage", null);
return new NinePatchDrawable.createFromPath(imagePath);
}
});

Both results in same thing.

I have added a screenshot of how it looks on using the above codes.

hi, can you check your imei / baseband when you're on kitkat? (you have to do that very fast because your phone restarts every couple of minutes)

if your imei is null and baseband unknown, you can follow instructions on my thread here http://xdaforums.com/note-4-att/help/baseband-ok-imei-unknown-efs-folder-t3156309
