[Q] TouchPad Boot problem - General Questions and Answers

hello everyone,
I have a peculiar problem with my rooted TP. well before i put forward i will provide a brief history. i Had with me webos updated version before i attempted to root my TP. I SUCCESSFULLY rooted my tp to cyanogenmod 3 android system and everything worked as it intended. Then i updated to 3.5 cyanogenmod and then a clean install to xronified version. my problem now is when i ask the system to shutdown from xronified version it reboots again while when i ask to reboot it shutsdown and have to manually restart. it there something wrong with the booting sequence.? i know the limitation of both versions of android but i am happy with the excellent work put up by both versions. i thought it would be better to question this issue in developers thread but as being new to THIS forum i am not able to.(minimum 10 posts).

[Completed] [Q] failed update on HTC Sensation

I had some time available today for a change and so attempted to do a long overdue update to jelly bean. Catastrophe! I dont know really where to start trying to solve the problem though I have spent my entire day off (sic) (NOT SICK!) prior to an all night 12 hour slog at work...not happy...no phone and I'm on call...ooops So now you know what a bit of a prat I am perhaps someone out there in XDA land can forgive me and point me in the direction of help pages or suggestions to get me communicating again.....please...
I rooted and unlocked my phone a long time ago and have not been back to change things for ages so anything I knew back then isn't worth knowing. I've been trying to resolve a boot loop after trying to follow :
http://www.android.gs/update-htc-sensation-cm10-1-rc2-jelly-bean-4-2-2/
i followed these instructions carefully and the only issue I had with the files to install was that the CM10.1 file wasn't available so I went with 10.2
so the first question would be....is this file incompatible. I assumed it was just the next release with some improvements?
I have ClockworkMod Recovery installed and have tried endless times to get this thinkg to work but even dropping back to an earlier version of cyanogen mod 9 my phone loops shortly after loading the cyanogen screens....
Any pointers from you guys would be a great help. I'm sure you're going to want more information from me so I'll stop here and hope someone responds
all the best and thank you in antcipation
Hi,
As a general rule recoveries that work with cm9 do not work with cm 10.1.
Ensure that you have the proper recovery version and should you still have the issue, please ask here
All the best !!

[Completed] Update ROMs on HP 10 tablet

Hi
I made this post below, but didn't get a reply, so I'm not sure if I'm making it in the right area, or if it isn't being seen, or just no solutions. Anyway, here it is again!
Hello guys
I have an HP 10 tablet(similair to slate 7) running 4.4.2. It is rooted, but it hasn't updated due to the ota not recognizing the root scripts. I wanted to update to lollipop(Android 5), but couldn't find specific roms for may model. I saw some HP touch stuff though, but not sure if that would work. This tablet is a quad core 1.2ghz, ARM v7 processor rev 3 (v71). Since rooting, it no longer keeps its state, and if it goes dead, is turned off, or reboots, it defaults back to factory settings, and I have to start all over with installing my back up (via titanium). It is time to update and make it more stable. any help?
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Since 5.x OTA's will fail on rooted devices. I'm not sure if this is the right forum but see if anyone can help you here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/hp-touchpad

[Completed] Gt-N5110 root problem

Bare with me, I'm a total noob and I hold my hands up, I got a galaxy note 8.0, rooted it fine then I went to install CM 13 for it following partially instructions partially my own knowledge and now it's muffed. No matter how many times I tried it wouldn't work and I was messing around with it all night last night and all day today and in my infinat wisdom I removed all OS from it full stop. I have been sat here for 6 hours trying to put cm on it (tried 11, 12 and 13) tried installing stock marshmallow I downloaded from some site, and even some other ROM I can't remember off the top of my head (the logo is a horse's head or something) and yep nothing what so ever i have tried several different boot thingies like twrp and it always fails when I try to install the ROM, I know I should have backed up and I thought I had using titaniumbackup but that went with the OS. It's currently got twrp on it and I can get into that and connect it Odin (I think that's what it's called) but that's all I can do. Is it fixable or is it scrap? >.<
Update, after putting it down and thinking about it from another perspective I worked out a fix, it's back running 4.4.2 and works fine (on my note I will say the latest update of the Google app causes a problem with the system UI if you have Google now as your launcher) I'll update with full details in the morning in hopes that if anyone else has a similar problem this will help.

Greetings and welcome to assist. Have you tried any of the CM based roms from xda ? You may only need to update your recovery. Both of these should work on your device

[Completed] Bootloop problem on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5100)

Hello!
I have the following problem and after countless searches over many forums I ended up finding no answer:
About 4-5 months ago my P5100 started to restart itself after 1 or 2 minutes of functioning properly (restarts even faster if i try to connect over Wi-Fi or install an app). I thought that if I leave it for a while everything will be ok, it wasn't the case so I started trying to fix it. Before I go on I mention that my P5100 was rooted , running CWM version 5.5 and CM10(10.1.3), i haven't messed with the rom, recovery, firmware etc. for more that one year and a half so it started all of a sudden. I tried everything starting from simply updating the CM version to ADB commands and finally flashing back to the stock firmware with Odin. The wipe data/factory reset didn't work neither in recovery nor commands, I even tried to delete everything via Internal Storage in my pc through USB. Every time it reverts itself to the point it was left before although everything seemed to work just fine no errors or so. It doesen't remember after reboot any setting I made or any app that i installed(if I manage to install one) it is like i didn't do anything at all to it. :crying:
Many thanks for taking your time to read my thread and maybe help me:laugh:

Samsung Galaxy S Relay most current CM ROM and TWRP?

Hi All,
I have a two Relays that have served me well, and I enjoyed having them, but the time has come to pass them on to someone else. Before I do that, I'd like to update them to the most recent versions of stable-release software that is available for them.
For Cyanogen, I have:
cm-11-20150831 (this is stable)
cm-11-20160523 (this is a nightly build)
For recovery I have:
philz touch 6.48.4
I'd like to replace Philz with a newer TWRP, but the Relay is no longer listed on the TWRP website. I'm also wondering if there was ever a stable CM release newer than the one I have.
Does anyone have sources for the above?
Thanks.
Is there any one still developing for this device? If so, is it possible to get Android Go on it.. might just breathe new life into it and bring it upto date..

Although I'm not a developer I have been working on my SGH T699 from T Mobile. You may already know of the JellyBean and before. Recently I've noticed new builds for the samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G like the Validus 5.0.2 or the Fat Toad. I haven't tried those yet I was trying for a higher version. With 8.0 Oreo it requires partitioning and I need to brush up on that. So I went lower to the 7.0 or the 7.1 Nougat. I started noticing a lot of broken or old links so I had to resort to fishing the internet for most of the packages apparently lost in XDA. I pretty much have all of them and was just starting to try a few out when I ran into problems like I want to keep using the keyboard and Wifi calling or a related Wifi issue. It also crashed, went into bootloop or even soft bricked within a few days. The Roms and packages I've found are highly unstable and I see many had flashing issues. So far I've been tricking my device into taking the flash and even then it doesn't hold long. I'd like 6.0 MarshMallow if I can, maybe 7.1 if they ever get stabler that'd be great. But so far the ROMs for the Galaxy S (relay) are fairly horrible to say the least. I get the impression these so-called developers aren't testing their ROM creations more than 5 minutes and then handing them off to noobs who may be very likely to brick their device trying to get it in and running, only to have it crash repetedly! Or worse, hard-bricked.
I like this device. I think I'll keep working on it.
Casper Young.
