[General Questions and Answers] crullx:
Hi everyone,

I'm sorry if I post this question in a wrong section but there is no thread for my device on xda.

It seems like I ruined the recovery mode of my Android tablet. It's a HP Pro Slate 12 tablet with Android 5.1.1 on it. It's rooted. I wanted to install CWM Recovery to backup everything, but my device wasn't listed as a supported device. My friend told me I can install the LG G3 recovery instead because it's compatible. I installed that. Since then recovery mode completely disappeared. The device still boots in normal mode and works, but I cannot boot into recovery mode anymore. I really need it because the device boots normally but sometimes acting strange since I rooted it. I'd like to try unrooting it by going into recovery mode or doing a factory reset, but both options disappeared.

Here's what I've tried:

- I Googled this problem very thoroughly, but didn't find any help aside from "hold down 2 buttons to go into recovery mode" type of answers.

- I tried holding down volume up+power buttons while turning it on, but didn't work.

- Tried holding down volume down+power. Nope.

- Tried rebooting inside Android into recovery mode with Quick boot app. It rebooted my device but again it went into normal mode instead.

- Tried to reboot into recovery mode with ADP and FastBoot in Windows. ADB recognized my device (listed the serial number), Fastboot didn't recognize my device. So I tried to reboot into recovery with ADB. Same stuff happened. The device rebooted into normal mode.

- Tried to do a factory reset. DIDN'T work! Rebooted into normal mode once more. The factory reset hasn't deleted anything.

- I have the latest available update.zip from the official website for my device, but without recovery mode I cannot install it.

Any ideas? Did I really lose the possibility of recovery forever with a single click?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Walz83:
Is there a way to customise the navigation bar to have apps shortcuts & media buttons on the same page as the three navigation buttons? This was a feature of a SlimRom i used on 4.4.4.

The closest thing i found is XPOSED module Xtended NavBar but it's not quite working and you need to swipe to get to media buttons (not on same page as nav buttons).

Hello,

I unlocked my bootloader and loaded the full 5.1 rom, if I want to go back to android tv how do I do this? Do I go into recovery and choose full wipe/factory reset? Or what do I do to get back to the stock android tv on the shield tv...thanks
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xd4d3v:
download the latest firmware from the nvidia site, and follow the instructions.

You need to flash everything via fastboot mode.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] niluka:
Hi,

I have Samsung Galaxy S3 I9305 phone. It had a logo stuck issue. Then I rooted the phone and flash CWM recovery using ODIN3.

Then I made the CWM backup to the SD card. Then I wipe the dalvik cache and wipe data/factory reset. Since still phone is not booted I misunderstood the steps and mistakenly did the CWM format /system and format /data. then I did nothing. Now the phone is not booting. It only goes to model no display screen. I read that even when formatting data, It only deletes the table of contents(pointers) and not the actual data. Now please tell me that, were all photos in internal memory lost? Can I recover photos in internal memory using recovery utility?.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Jericho Arcelao:
Wiping system means NO OS. Just flash a new ROM and you'll be fine. Also this dosen't need to be a Q&A Thread, it's better if it is just a Normal Thread.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] niluka:
Thanks for the quick reply. Actually my question was even though I formatted the system and data, Can I restore data in the internal memory?. I need only internal memory photos. I have read that I even formatted the data, table of contents is deleted and data is still available.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Jericho Arcelao:
If its still there, flash the exact same ROM you flashed before the accident then if its still not there then use DiskDigger from GPlay. If DiskDigger can't find it then it can't be recovered ever again :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] niluka:
Quick question Jeri. I have backup the ROM using CWM recovery AFTER the accident to external SD card. Back up has the following files:

boot.img

recovery.img

system.ext4.tar

system.ext4.tar.a

system.ext4.tar.b

It was the stock ROM(I mean original OS, which phone had when I bought the phone).

So please tell me that what to do next? sorry about my lack of knowledge of this area.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] niluka:

I flashed the ROM using ODIN. I used the I9305XXUFNL1_I9305H3GFNL1_I9305XXUFOA1_HOME.tar.md5 file for flashing. But I'm not sure it is correct. But still my phone is not booting, and stopping at logo screen. What do I do next?

and also can i back up all my setting and move them to the next rom ??

Thanks MS3
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] galaxys:
Well there are a lot of of good stable roms depending on your preferences...

I went from Schaps to TNT V2.0, and it is very fast and stable for me. You can read it's thread for posted details.

i was going to try TNT but i was wating for shap's to come back

but from wat i say today i dont think he is :(

so is there a way to back up my settings and move them to TNT
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bchau:
Isn't there a PIM backup that can do backup?

As for the ROM, I have recently tried the Dutty Supa Dupa ButtonFLO ROM and it is working good for me so far. It is ButtonFLO though (not TouchFLO) but I can happy with that.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cyphol:
Well, what can I say. It's your choice though.:D Good luck on your search.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] fastwanabe:
cyphol I tried ur ROM and I like it alot, it one of better ones on here. I dont know why the other didnt like it but i love the startup alot.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] cyphol:
Thanks for trying it and am glad you like it.:D It's our choice which one we wanted. Mazdaspeed like a ROM that's faster and more beautiful than mine. Well, he could try others. There's a lot in here. Try them all and make a choice. Just like I did, before I made my decision to make one of my own but with various users in mind. He can leave mine behind because he already tried mine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Good rom, backup

Hi mazdaspeed,

If you want something to load and forget, I think one of my roms would fit the bill. Nothing fancy, but lots of space to do what you want with it, and fast and stable. Read the threads and see if they sound right for you.

As far as backing up settings, etc, it doesn't really work. If you're changing roms, the registries will be different, to match the underlying programs. Backup utilities restore the registry, where your settings are kept, but in restoring the registry they erase what should be there so the new rom functions properly. There are utilities to speed up the re-loading of programs, etc, and they are helpful if you are a chronic rom-flasher, but they take time to set up, and don't do much for your settings anyway. What will save you lots of time is a PIM backup utility, if you don't use activesync.

Hope this helps, and good luck!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Roll3r:
I'll vouch for edhass's ROMs. Had the lite version installed for a week or two, got bored and flashed another ROM. After a day of testing I re-flashed edhaas's. Super clean, super fast, super stable. Last ROM I'll use till I find the time to cook my own.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] g35driver:
x2 to the max
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Put another vote for Edhaas. The SuperD-Lite has TONS of storage and is really the fastest ive used (see what ive had in my sig).

I cant say much about stability tho, since i havent had a problem with any of them. Might have something to do with only having some of them for a week, at most. Enough time to gauge speed, but prob not stability.

This one ive had for a few weeks/month tho.

Oh and also, with the lite ones you can load what you want and forget about what you dont use. Helps with speed, and you said u dont use a lot of the stuff.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] alancstan:
My vote on edhaas rom too... super clean, fast and stable! ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mazdaspeed:
sweet well i had TNT over nite now im flashing urs :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mazdaspeed:
ok what is T lite and D lite ???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Roll3r:
T-Lite = based on T-Mobile ROM, D-Lite = based on Dopod ROM. Haven't tried the T-lite, but from what I understand it's very similar to Dopod but takes up more space.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Its somethin like the T-Lite is based on the tmobile rom build and the D-Lite is on the dopod build. I think the differences are very minimal, if any.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jnvdh06:
Hi guys

Im coming to this forum for some advice. I am due for an upgrade, but due to the limited options I have available, I am considering buying a second hand phone instead.

I can get a S3 for pretty cheap and still in good condition. It looks like it has pretty good dev support. And I like the fact that it still has a removable battery and SD Card support.

I currently have a Samsung A5.

I would love a Nexus, but its hard to get in my country and very expensive.

My other upgrade options that I am interested in are:

LG G4

Sony Z5

Sony Z5 Compact

Samsung S6

Samsung Note 5

Your advice is appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
S3 can't be compared with the other ones:

- pretty old

- LP- or MM-ROMs all have bugs (means: more than 4.3-firmware)

- their development depends on a few engaged people, which partly don't use S3 anymore, partly announced that they will stop

very interresting poll !

with all threads everywhere about this bootloop problem , i principaly see (at 90 % and more) that 505 serie of h815 (and variants) +all US variants are concerned .

BUT i see somewhere just a member or two who have said that the concerned series of h815 are 505 to 508 (june to september2015) ===>>> this assertion have been repeated many times until now !

....and a member have said that it's near all series.

what's the truth ? :confused:

For me ,i have a h815 number 506 and no problem until now .i would want to test customs,kernels,MM rooted.....i have the possibility to unlock my bootloader....but i'm very affraid !!!! and really want to preserve my warranty for that .

well this is all very confusing.. not really a way.. only way its to wait till your warranty expires..

according to some people.. all the ones manufacture from 2015 -may-jun-august. all are prone to fail....they start to fail after like 7-9 months of use.. some sooner... LG says they fix it starting from 2015-october..and since the ones affected are old devices .. some say ours will too we just need to wait till our devices reach 7-9 months to show up in this so called ..fixed G4. ? only time will tell.

Either Slimport wake lock or phone.gms wake lock is present 95% of the time. (Daughterboard is likely to be shorting)

Cannot connect to pc via cable. (Probably to do with the daughterboard again)

Screen on time 1 hour 30 minutes. If lucky 2 hours.

Screen dims randomly for no reason.

Tried every single rom variant with no luck. The problem is, I rooted the phone so no warranty. As if a physical defect is to do with rooting...

4 of my friends got a G4 as well. I am the luckiest of them all with 9 months usage.

To me this was the worst phone experience ever. HTC Sensation with earthing problems cannot even come close to G4 in terms of rubbish longevity.

This is definitely my last non-nexus phone.
