[Nook Touch General] Pajamaman:
I installed relaunchx and rooted the device sucessfully. It was running okay. I set the home button to restart in relaunch rather than the nook software. I rebooted and all it would do is go to the front-screen with the nook barnes and noble logo on the front. I could turn it on and off, but that was it. It charged. I tried to start packages on the device via adb but it said the system wasn't running. I could see processes system processes with ps.

I issued a reboot recovery command via adb. The Nook finally responded with something other than a reboot and it went into recovery and did a full factory reset. I thought I was in the clear. But no. It rebooted and went back to the logo screen as before. However, now I no longer have adb access.This might be because the factory reset turned off usb debugging. So now I can't access the device at all. Does anyone have any ideas how I might be able to proceed? I think the device is functional, but the bootloader is damaged somehow so I can't start Android on the device. Without adb access, I think it's effectively gone.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
It's likely that you don't have any home application working.

Or maybe it's completely borked.

Have you tried holding various buttons on a power up to see if you can try recovery again?

The next worst case is just using the hardware console connection (inside the case) to see if you have a shell and what's going on.

For the old NST we had a whole setup to boot over USB even with a totally wiped out flash.

That hasn't been looked at for the newer iMX6 (vs OMAP) Nooks.

Hi,

I tried to manually root using https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76496894&postcount=13, replicating commands on Linux, and I totally bricked my Nook - probably bad repacking on boot image.

Can you point me to NST setup to recover over USB, I would spend some time to try to recover my Nook.

Thank you!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
If you had just wiped out P1 you should still have recovery (on P2) just fine.

Do a restart holding the Home button down.

If this doesn't work you somehow managed to wipe the bootloader.

To get the USB HID bootloader to work would be a bit of a project.

There is the starting point of this tool: https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader

Anything that is written about USB recovery on the NST (which uses OMAP) has nothing to do with the new Glows (iMX6SL).

Hmmm, the Kindle Paper White 2 seems to have the same processor/ROM bootloader...

I was lucky!

Restart holding the Home button down made no difference.

Trying randomly, I observed restart holding the Home and Right Up buttons goes into fastboot.

I recovered P1 partition for which I had backup and my Nook is live again.

Many thanks!!!

imx_usb_loader would have taken some time to learn.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
So you're stuck in the ROM USB bootloader?

To look into a solution I had to get the ROM USB bootloader to run on my Nook to test things.

I didn't feel like bricking the Nook, so that was out.

I disassembled the ROM bootloader and found the correct, erm, workable entry point in the ROM.

eBR-1A # go [i]<entry address>[/i]

iManufacturer: 0x01
0x0409: "Freescale SemiConductor Inc "
iProduct: 0x02
0x0409: "SE Blank MEGREZ"

So now I can play around with the ROM USB bootloader.
[Nook Touch General] cipibad:
No.

After fastboot got enabled I booted nnglow3.img and then I recovered P1 partition with dd.

My Nook is like new:)

Thanks,

I need some help. I am trying to put some stuff together to make my phone cool but I need to know if I can change the color of some of the icons on the top bar? You can see in my screenshot what I need.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
This is really cool man.:cool: rltoday ?

The Icons are graphics and you can found them in windowsFolder. think you have to change the colors of the graphics an then put it back in windows folder.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JudgeDredd67:
Yes, it is rltoday running inside UltimateLaunch. Soon as I get it all figured out I will post everything.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JudgeDredd67:
I can not find these icons in the windows folder. What names should I be looking for?

Thanks for everyones help but tracking down those icons is not as easy as it sounds. So I decided to go a new direction using Wisbar Advance Desktop.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] smuook:
Wow, nice job with the design... looks great. :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sandworm:
nice! this was your best option as the signal bars take the background color, so even if you found the required icons, you'd need to change your background for your windows to blue in order to get everything to match.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Polargoat:
you cant find the icons because there are none. to edit the colors of the signal bars, data arrows, etc.. you have to edit .dll files. i cant remember which .dll files off the top of my head but i think one of them is tapre96.dll somethin like that. use reshacker to edit the .dll files
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InnerPeace:
Hello,

I just got my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 a week ago or two weeks ago. It was really a big decision considering the fact that I was supposed to get an iPhone X. It is the best decision I've made so far!

Now, I don't know if it is possible to reinstall my phone like a fresh installation? The usual thing that I do on an iPhone. Backup via iTunes. Manual installation of the firmware then restore via iTunes. I don't know if that is possible with an Android phone, most specifically a Samsung phone. It was shocking though that I transferred stuffs from my iPhone to the Samsung phone using an actual cable and without the help of computers. Even transferring of stuff can be made directly onto the phone itself without the use of a desktop suite. Going back, I'll be getting the memory cards that I ordered, I heard the firmware for Android must be placed there?

I believe that my phone is locked to my carrier, and I have no idea where to get the actual firmware from my manufacturer. Does Samsung has a database of modified firmwares? My Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a dual-sim edition.

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Darkmixx:
Hello friends, I have a question in general with respect to android Or, it is the load (I do not speak of QC or kernels) when the phone is charging at rest (blocked with the screen off), the battery charge is fast but when I'm using it (I'm not talking about playing or anything like that, if not in common use) and blocking it appears as a slow charge, does anyone know why? "
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Sagar_zac:
Its common sense when the phone is at rest , and no apps are working or when the screen is off ,there is minimal power drainage but when u use the phone or when the screen is on. There is power drainage , thus powder of the charging shows less.

When the screen is off and between 0 to 80 % it charges around 1500 mah where as when the screen is switched on or just ur doing some work the charging is at a rate of 500 to 900mah .

Hi everybody! I have had my M9 for more than 2 years now with no problems at all.

Just today, my M9 started rebooting itself in a loop and after some reboots it finally booted into the OS. But, after i use it for 5-15 minutes, it again starts rebooting itself in a bootloop. I have tried doing a Factory Reset without success, and by now i really dont know what to do

My M9 is Stock Rom 7.0, bootloader unlocked, S-ON

I can access the bootloader mode and the download mode. Both the recovery and the ROM are completely stock

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
If you don't mind losing data, try doing a factory reset.

If it still retains your configuration, then it might be a symptom of a dead eMMC
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertoferrer27:
yeah I already did a factory reset via Recovery Mode with no results :(

Do i have the dead eMMC problem? If so, what could i do?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
It does sounds like it.

Unfortunately, it is almost better to replace the phone since changing the eMMC is not that easy. Your average repair centre would tell to just change the whole mainboard. But then you could always try to take it to one and see what he could do about it
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucyr03:
It doesn't sound like eMMC problem for me at all.

Did you tried flashing stock RUU?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaqman89:
Well, if after a factory reset, the configuration stays the same, it would only by mean that new changes are not persisted. Afaik, it's the symptom of a dying eMMC.

Nevertheless, it's a good thing to try that.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucyr03:
He didn't said the configuration stays the same, only the bootloop isn't fixed by a factory reset, which most probably means the system partition have few corrupted files.

eMMC problem isn't excluded at all of course, if the phone refuses to flash the ruu or die in flashing procedure is definitely dead eMMC, but no one loss anything by just trying to flash ruu :)
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertoferrer27:
Thanks! i will try flashing the RUU today, seems like the last thing to try right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] dan0326:
Trying to find out if anybody has developed a pure Android ROM for the Verizon Galaxy S7. Ideally I want is a ROM that has no Verizon or Samsung apps, add-ins, plugins or what ever. Maybe something similar to the pixel 2 set up?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] SeVaS2016:
Ive been working on this for a bit now and the closest thing I can find is freezing/deleting as many apps as you can with Titanium Backup and rooting your device.

What you are trying to do is close to impossible, apparently. Which makes little sense to me. I dont see how one company can cause such a fantastic problem.

Ive rooted my device and froze or deleted almost the entire phone and it works, but its slower than stock and I still dont like all this extra smoke lying around. There are some apps that still try to connect to the internet randomly that are tied to system processes and I dont like it.

Ive called Verizon tech support and they are not given this type of information from corporate. Ive read most every tutorial on XDA and other sites. XDA is the only one with useful info.

XDA does offer a customized Verizon ROM for our phones that has already removed and froze bloatware and such. But its not completely "Verizon Clean".

I just found something about downloading the 930U firmware, U for Unlocked which doesnt have any of the Verizon apps. Im going to give it a shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] dan0326:
I have done the freeze/ disable thing a few different time on a few different Rims. I guess I should just look at getting a Pixel2. Pure Android, no Samsung added junk and no Verizon bloat.

how much does it use per hour? It highly depends on what websites you visit though. as i said, i used to brows instagram on chrome including watching stories etc. Nowadays its mostly news, xda and an imageboard with pics and videos. thats probably why my chrome drain per hour is above average.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] auroraPLG:
LOOKING FOR FILES

** Backstory **

So I've been working on a Docomo HT-03a I bought through eBay thinking it was a plain old myTouch 3g. Upon receiving it, I found out it had HBOOT-1.33.2010 and S-OFF already, so flashing was no problem. Later I found out what exactly it was- at first I missed the part where it said EVT1 32B.

In the meantime, I trawled the web looking for whatever I could find. This device was a godsend, and I wanted it to be special. I'd had an old 'Merlot' (red) T-Mobile myTouch 3G way back in the day, but I never had any success in rooting it or replacing the SPL. Here was not only a Japanese Magic in a (sadly) white T-Mobile MT3G outer shell, it had an engineering SPL on it! So naturally, I wanted to flash some awesome ROMs- and, naturally, that was just PART of my search....

In the end, I found all of the recoveries I wanted (including the adorable pink Care Bear-themed recovery I'm using), plus a script for changing splash screens and gave myself a pretty picture to look at, far better than the stock splash screen for this little gem. But, there was one thing I hadn't checked out just yet: ROMs.

As it was, the ROM on the little lady was completely unusable. Setup would stop mere seconds after booting,every single time. To make things worse, it gave way to a lockscreen of sorts, which had absolutely no way to unlock the system yet had a button for emergency calls.

There was only one place to go: The ROM Bible. Heading there, I soon found a treasure trove of ROMs I could use. Except... the links in the threads therein, are almost universally dead. So, I'm looking for ROMs and a few related files.

This brings me to The Important Part.

** The Important Part- PLEASE READ **

I know from lots of experience how exhausting it can be, both physically and mentally, to search for files on your own machine or network, especially if you're like me and have collected (and lost) vast amounts of data. Trawling the web for files can be downright agonizing. I know this, and I empathize.

FOR THIS REASON, I DO NOT WANT YOUR TIME AND EFFORT TO GO UNCOMPENSATED. Therefore, should your assistance bear fruit, I shall gladly recompense you. IF YOU HAVE DONATE LINKS PLEASE SHARE THEM WITH ME.

And of course, the thanks button will be used liberally.

So with that said, let's get to the list, shall we?

Dirty flashed.

I think it may have been corrupted.

Now it just keeps rebooting, no access to recovery only download mode etc

I have tried,reinstalling recovery..nothing

i have tried flashing a boot.img nothing

It gets to twrp load screen then just reboots.

Im aware the oreo wwe ruu isnt out currently.

So what options are there to restore functionality. If the wwe oreo is only an ota. doesnt that imply i can go back to a previous rom version then just update again? Like i did with n.

Hello everybody,

I installed fresh AICP rom on my s3 ( 4g, I9305), and everything works just fine ( had to fiddle a bit with a modem firmware, but in the end everything run just fine...)

Until I noticed ( with my sharp eyes :eek: ) that there's an almost invisible overlay covering lower portion of the screen...

I checked all the settings more than once and couldn't find a reason...

Then I flashed two more different rom's ( lineage and RR), same thing... Full wipe, clean install, first boot.. and the ghost overlay was there from the beginning.

Then one more time flashing AICP ( I kinda like it the most...), took some photos, crank the levels in Photoshop and voila... No more no less it's a ghost keyboard, not possible to interact with it in any way... but present everywhere...

Anyone has a clue why this ghost keyboard is there, and how to remove it?
