Ive never "played" with gdisk, so Flashes are applying, the phone just doesnt start. If i flash factory with flashtool, only sony logo appears, led is off. When I flash TWRP sony logo and experia logo appear, the led turns green shortly and the phone vibrates and i can access twrp. if i connect it to pc, i can even see the sony z1 and access the internal storage... strange

Is there any way to access the service menu without the dialer (from recovery, ...)?

Yes, I tryed a factory reset with pc companion.

With an other recovery it worked. now it says : "/sbin/sh: am: not found"
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levone1:
That's odd. It would seem like adb would recognize the -am- command. Did you confirm that you're in /adb, and device recognized?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nampill:
What do you mean with "in ADB"?

I flashed twrp with fastboot and entered it

I did a full wipe and flashed a custom rom

Opened cmd in plattformtools and entered the command. --> error

ADB devices -l shows the device

The infernal storage is shown in Windows, but has only one empty folder " twrp". Is that normal?

Another Problem since today: the display has now almost no backgroundlight. Hard to read.

Im suggesting a Hardware Problem in the mainboard (changed display and audiojack to the old ones and had the same problem). Is there any way to check the Hardware outside Android system?

I'm not an expert, so just guessing, but it seems to me that your rom is not being written. I would agree that it seems like hw, especially since it happened after opening the phone.

Hello guys I've lost windows 10 after flasshing the rom only erasing system,there is any form to recover it without installing it other time ?

Is easy to recover - and windows booloader dissappear only if you are installing from iso .

I'm working to fix it .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] kostas-k:
You can make a bootable USB stick using Rufus and selecting GPT..., boot from this USB (overide by BIOS) and when installation starts, press NEXT and then Repair this Computer. Go to TRoubleshooting and Advanced Settings and go to command prompt and run these commands:

bootrec /rebuildbcd

bootrec /fixmbr

After that, go back and click on the "Startup repair" and windows will start without reinstalling.

The steps were described as good as I remember them...because I did it some weeks ago
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] PeterTech:
If your windows icon on boot menu has disappeared you can also recover it by running bcdboot c:\windows from your installation ISO booted up at command prompt. (if you had installed windows fresh from ISO).

So,I'm trying to fix a nokia x2,it seems my device cannot mount /system on TWRP, so I'm trying to flash the stock system.img

But the problem is that in the stock rom, the system.img is split into 10.img files and I cant flash it without erasing the previous one, and thus leaving me with a corrupt partion.

SO is there anyway to combine them into a single "system.img" so I can flash it

hi,

first of all sorry for my bad english.

So i've had a friend who as this tablets but like many people the tablets block on boot after the beginning where is the "pub page" for polaroid.

the original firmware is not on the polaroid site for this tablets and i don't find it on the net.

But i found the firmware of a tablets with the same spécification ot the midc147.

i try to install it on the tablets with the recovery but the installation failed.

it's not surprising i think there is protection on the midc to not install other firmware like license verification or other protection.

So my question that is possible to install a "rom" that on another "constructor"? what can be modified in the rom that i want to install?

what is possible to do to bypass the license verification? the tablets must be root before install another firmware?

thanks for help
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] TheUsher:
Is there anything I can realistically do to speed up this phone, without resorting to a new firmware for it? I've had it for about 3 days and it's killing me. Nothing is even running, and it's laggy and slow as ****. Even coming back from sleep, unlocking, whatever the same laggy behavior. I have at least 17mb free on the device, and everything else on a 2gb card. I am using the HTC Home Plugin from the touch. Would that degrade the performance this much? Because if so I'm not sure it's even worth keeping and I would have to return it very soon.

Any advice is appreciated.

Now it's even worse. The phone wouldn't wake, I pulled the battery, it STILL wouldn't wake. Now all the sudden after 20+ minutes and a cold reboot by yanking the battery it comes back up with the keys locked. WTF is with this thing....

Disabled the HTC Home Plugin and it seems to be working a little better. No word on locking and unlocking yet I will try that out, and give a shot to the suggestions in the thread you pointed me to, thanks.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] TheUsher:
Now with the home screen disabled, the phone still acts weird. When I woke up this morning, I turned it on and it endless seemed to reboot. It would turn on, make the startup sound, go to the windows mobile splash, then shut off. After this happened about 10 times, I made it to the desktop where the phone was locked.

I just don't know what to do with this thing anymore. It doesn't seem very reliable. Any last minute suggestions short of returning it?

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] gonene1:
I read a lot of reviews about this case , but not a single review that pointed out a serious problem with this case.

after being so disappointed with it, I also reviews it on amazon .

This was a waste of money !!!

I bought this case cover so I'll have some peace of mind, not fearing that my tablet would fall and break .

I put it over the tablet and it looked great , it felt like it would defiantly keep my note pro 12.2 safe .

BUT, I started noticing that the screen became less responsive to the touch , AND also the pen started to put out some deformed lines.

Around the middle of the screen, strait lines that i drew with the pen became curved , i tried to draw a box and could not get the line strait until i moved the canvas to the side of the screen.

After reading what other reviewers said , I guessed this was something to do with the plastic screen protector part of the case.

So i removed the plastic cover, the screen became more responsive to the touch as before, BUT!!! it changed nothing for the stylus accuracy.

I started putting lines all over my screen and i found out a 1\4inch dead-spot around the home button , the pen could not draw in that area , it just carved around it. This curvature was going through to some extent all the way to the middle of the screen , and was the reason for the strait lines becoming curved .

I thought that maybe it was something with the home button.

IT was Not!

The problem was the strong magnet at the back of the case, the same magnet that holds the hide-away stand in place.

as soon as i completely removed the cover , things went back to normal , and i could draw strait lines once again.

I don't know if having a constant magnetic field could permanently harm my wacom digitizer in the screen.

But since i bought the tablet for art making , it was useless if it don't have good pen accuracy.

If you Buy this Cover for the note, and plan to use it with the s-pen, then forget about it !

AM I THE ONLY ONE WHICH THIS CASE THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM????
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] ShadowLea:
No, you're not. Most cases have this problem. In fact I was quite surprised to find that the Samsonite flipcover I bought recently didn't interfere with the Wacom sensors.

The magnetic field doesn't harm the Wacom digitizer. The problem is just that the Wacom digitizer also uses magnetics, and two magnets don't exactly work very well together.

There is no material that can block magnetic fields, so you can't solve it with a simple strip of fabric. (Although a strip of velvet or leather tends to help somewhat) You can try to cut out the magnet.

Something to know: There are two versions of magnetic systems in covers:

> The cheap, generic solution. Which is a single, relatively strong, magnet This causes problems with Wacom digitizers. It also causes problems with the tablets shutting off on their own for no reason.

> The more high-end brands use a different system, of a long magnetic strip or line. The overall magnetic strength is identical, but it is spread out enough so as to not interfere with the digitizers and sensors. My Samsonite apparently has this. (I emailed them.)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Accessories] poetryrocksalot:
Actually, I asked an Amazon Q&A question about it and everyone who answered were too dumb to notice the magnet affecting the pen input. After I provided instructions to prove the problem exists, the price dropped from about $60 to $30. Man I don't get people. I am 100% sure everyone's Gumdrop has this issue, yet people are oblivious about it. Either they don't use the pen or they don't bother actually checking for the problem.

The question I asked:

http://www.amazon.com/forum/-/Tx26FDNR9NR3Y1F/ref=ask_dp_dpmw_al_hza?asin=B00IVEHYPG

After returning the Gumdrop, I bought an Otterbox and I am satisfied.

Download CWM recovery, boot in bootloader ( fastboot - must say in UNLOCKED ), use ADB and write :

Than don´t reboot, press vol + and power at same time, hold it and wait, when power off release only power key, like this image will be save for sure.

"Finally, in order to test the horsepower of the TyTN II I installed The Core Pocket Media Player and watched a few sample videos. What amazed me here is that I was able to put a video clip on the internal storage memory of the device that was NOT optimised for pocket PC and despite the DivX video being 640 x 320 it played back without so much of a stutter!

Per the above post.

"... I'm using TCPMP and I've found that the following steps help relieve some of the problems.

1. Options/Video:

Change from DirectDraw to Raw FrameBuffer

Uncheck "Dither" (whatever that is)

2. Options/Video/Pixel Aspect Ratio: set to Auto

3. Options/Settings/Advanced

Check "Slow Video Memory"

4. Options/Settings/Buffering

Change "Preload at Underrun" to 85%

Note: I'm using PocketDIVxEncoder to convert everything to AVI files with the right audio/video size and format and I've tweaked the rom quite a bit. The most important setting change I've found to improve response of programs/video came from the vx6700 forums:

H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/GDI/GLYPHCACHE/limit

change setting to either 32758 or 65536

I've tried both, and I'm using 32758 because it's a smaller memory footprint, but 65536 appears slightly faster.

Has not helped much. I am trying to play an H264 file encoded at 640x480, 23.976 frame rate. palying back via the FFmpeg AVC format. Audio sounds fine, but I am getting less than 1 frame per second of video. Is it the H.264 codec?
