Develop Bugs

[Q] Help! My desire stopped booting!

I Have a Desire with S-Off alpharev, and MIUI ROM.
All was working well until today.
It started to become very very slow....and now, the boot is really slow...and hangs on splash screen.
I could not complete the boot procedure..
So I tried a nandroid restore.... and now the launcher is doing loops...
What can I do???
Thanks for your help!

Tried a full wipe?

yes, full wipe done... same thing
I tried nandroid restore of my original HTC ROM.... seems more stable.. but still buggy.... impossible to activate wifi....

Hmm if you have stock hboot and stock rom something might be messed in terms of hardware i guess. I have no clue, bring your desire back to stock, then send it for repair, that's what i'd do. Good luck!

You may have flashed a bad radio

That's why i suggest you to return the phone for mantainance: assuming you haven't flashed a bad radio, if your radio is just wrong or not up to date for the rom you have you may have signal issues, camera not working and more, but even those problems should be encountered as soon as you flash it, not days later.
Another chance, now that i think about it, it might even be a broken sd-ext messing up. Did you use data2sd or some script of any sort when on MIUI?

Just don't forget to restore your phone using the RUU ...

[Q] i need help ASAP!!

ok i rooted my bros evo with revolutionary...i flashed superuser and amon recovery...so when i flashed synergy RSL1 i had a bunch of forclosures appear at the home screen to the point where i could not do anything but force forclose and it would jus keep re appearing so i went back to recovery n wiped everything and not im stuck at the bootloader n my dumbass forgot to back up the previous rom so now idk what to do...i need some help

Reflashed the rom and always do a nandroid backup when you change roms . Just in case something happens and you can go back to. Also to stop the foreclosures you can flash a kernal sometimes that evens out all the bugs and helps the battery life. But I had a lot of problems with that rom so I switched.

You don't know until you try. And if it doesn't work you can turn off the phone and take out your sd card put it into a sd adapter and put another rom on it again. I think it downloaded properly because you wouldn't be able to use your phone if the whole rom wasn't downloaded right.

No problem ...Yea sometimes you just have to reflash the rom a few times to get the bugs out.

Since you have Amon Ra, boot to recovery, click on USB Toggle, and your phone will connect to your computer so you transfer files back and forth.
Just wipe everything and flash a different ROM. Try MikG

HELP! I rooted my phone and not touchwiz is gone

Hello,
Last night I rooted my device using this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265429) method and file from zedomax and everything worked great except when I booted my device there was a yellow triangle with a black “!” in it. I figured that just indicated the device was rooted or running a 3rd party kernel so I didn’t worry about it.
Today I launched my camera app and it failed to load the interface but showed the image from the camera momentary then crashed back to the home screen. I restarted my device and when the device restarted it was very slow and unresponsive and after unlocking it my live wallpaper was gone replaced with the last background I used before selecting a live background a couple weeks back. No icons or widgets loaded and I am unable to open the settings tray. The only things I am able to do with the phone is pull down the notification bar, respond to text messages, adjust the volume and hold power to restart the phone. All of which are very slow and delayed.
When I connect the device to my computer windows is no longer able to load the drivers and Kies is unable to connect with the device. I am not sure what caused this or how to resolve this issue so any advice or known fixes would be fantastic! I am unable to get to clockwork mod to restore my backup and I am unable to get to Kies or the phone settings to do a factory reset so I really don’t know what to do they were supposed to be a last resort and now I don’t even think I can do them. I am an experienced techie but I am new to android and this is the first device I have rooted so any advice would be great no matter how basic it may be.
UPDATE: I just connected the phone via USB to my laptop at work and it was able to discover and install everything it needed to connect with the phone. I am installing Kies now so at least there is hope of a factory restore, although I really hope it doesn't come to that!

Boot into download mode and flash the stock eg30 tar file from crawrj.

Thanks Already started doing that waiting for it to download now

Still no touchwiz... great!

Try flashing a stock rom via clockworkmod.

You can root again and restore your backup, or go to this website www.lostandtired.com (midnight roms blog) click on android development and download and flash the sprint bloat and TW restore zip. Hope that helps.

I flashed the stock rom which didn't change anything so then I used clockworkMod to do a factory reset which ended up trapping me into a boot loop. I could use Odin to flash new roms but the device would never go past the 4G logo
I ended up taking the device back to Best Buy and since the loading screen showed the stock rom and they couldn't get past the 4G logo I just had to say it wasn't rooted and they gave me a new one.
I would love to know if anyone has any idea of what went wrong here so that I can feel comfortable rooting again. Also if anyone has some basic articles handy that teach basics of rooting that would be great, I didn't even know about clockwork mod until after I had this problem so knowing things like that earlier would have helped a lot I think. I'll be spending the weekend looking up everything I can find on the subject so any reading you guys can suggest would be fantastic.

If you a clockwork and "stock rom" you were still rooted...Doing a factory reset will send you into bootloop when rooted. Trying to flash other roms on a bootloop is not going to work. You need to have grabbed a backup such as Zedo has on his post and put the backup in clockwork folder on your phone. Then flash that in CWM. Would of brought you out of bootloop to a stock rom with his kernal. Now you can flash Roms and kernals or could of flashed crawf or anyone else FULL stock rom and been back to stock kernel and rom and not rooted.

Ohhhh that's what happened! Awesome thanks. I will be much better prepared with backups out the wazoo this time haha.
Now if only I could figure out why Touchwiz died in the first place hmmm....

I hope you can figure it out, just postin here to say that when I saw this thread, it reminded me of the thread over in the EVO forums about the guy who claimed that sprint removed his Sense from his phone.

haha SPRINT removed it?! So that person thinks sprint monitors every device and has a team of techies on staff to hack your phone and brick it if you break their rules?... yeah that totally makes more sense than a file got corrupted when you were messing with the kernel.. some people maybe shouldn't be rooting their devices in the first place haha

odin from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975560 EDIT: Do you back up your apps with titanium or similar?

Its a stock shipped rom rooted with teamwin recovery, And yes I always titanium backup, though I need to start backing up some system folders as well for complete backups. I thought I was on 4.1.2 from 1/28, but after flashing I see some updated buttons. Anyway I was able to get into recovery and flash a factory rom as normal without losing anything and its snappy like new. Im not sure why it was locking up so much and then got stuck in a boot loop but from now on I know to nandroid factory roms as often as custom roms.
Time to backup and try out some sense roms. I never thought I would like an Android overlay.

What Sense rom are you running on your Note II??

Camera issues

I was running liquid smooth, which was running nice and smooth.. but then the back camera just stopped working. it was always black and would just crash. So i wiped app data.. still didnt work. I factory wipe / wiped cache and everything, still it didn't work. I flashed a ton of new 4.3 roms like the new aokp, slim bean 4.3 , PA 3.99 , and still the camera didnt work..I dont know what else to do. I'm not super experienced so bear with me, please help me out.

Restore a completely 100% stock ROM. If it works, then there's a problem with the ROMs your trying to flash. If it does not work then you have a hardware issue.

I'm trying, but when it asks me to enter the S / N into kies it keeps saying that its incorrect even though im reading it right off the darn sticker..

cheifsfan645: Ive never learned about flashing with kies but try searching for "flashing stock rom with odin" This is the method I use and there is no serial numbers or any info needed. Make sure you use the correct image, it has to be for your carrier and phone or you could end up with troubles, even in some cases, bricking your phone. An even more foolproof method is to use "Samsung Toolbox" because it comes with detailed instructions and is a mostly automated process. I hope I may have pointed you in a helpfull direction, Im still new to this stuff.

Whoa, I've never heard of that one. I'm assuming you flashed a stock odin image? Maybe try to download the stock image from another source and see if that helps. I've never had that happen to me before.

What recovery are you using? If its TWRP make sure you have the latest. If its not then make sure you update to the latest. I got a replacement device. Rooted it and Rom'd it and my camera broke just like you are describing. I want back to full stock and camera worked. I then rooted it and camera worked. I then talked with friend and he advised me to flash the newest TWRP. I did and my camera came back.
Download TWRP from here http://techerrata.com/get/twrp2/d2att/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-d2att.tar
Download odin from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539
Install odin and run it. Reboot the phone to download mode make sure you have usb debugging checked in settings. Then check the PDA box and browse to that tar file and load it and then hit start it will flash your phone will reboot and the camera should be working.
