[Q] Serious Problems with CM on HTC One S - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I was having a tough time installing CM. Now it's running but I can't get any connections:
- When trying to activate WI-Fi "Turning Wi-Fi on..." appears, but nothing happens
- When looking for network operators I'm getting an "Error while searching networks"
- Bluetooth can't be turned on either
- Opening camera brings "No external storage available"
- When trying to open sd card via file manager "This operation requires elevated permissions. Try changing to Root Access mode" pops up.
History:
I had to install CM via sideload cause CWM could not mount SD-Card. Another error message was "failed to open driver control".
I googled both problems (sd card and driver control). Sideloading a ROM always seems to be the salvation. I tried that a few times but the phone always got stuck while rebooting. Whiping helped so CM is running now (I tried several others ROMs but never got as far as I did with CM)
Still I guess I'm having Driver Problems here (but actually I have no idea).
I hope description is of any use and I apologize for my probably bad english and I beg you to help me - if there's any help at all ...

UPDATE:
Meanwhile I tried flashing Stock RUU. Looked good at the beginning, but in the middle of the installation process I got "error 155" (screenshot unfortunately in german) which suggests to get the right update-utility-programe.

[solved] com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly and no network connection

hello everyone,
i'm a newbie and just tried to flash the rom of my phone to a newer version and then i got to the point where i needed help.
my phone is x10mini baseband m76xx-tsncjolym-53404015 with kernel 2.6.29 and 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware.
first i root my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833722
then i install xrecovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426x and copied everyting to system/bin ...
after wiping the settings (factory settings) in xrecovery, installing MIMICM6 1.00 and restarting, i got an error message saying "com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" repeatedly (each time two messages) and also no network (gsm) connectivaty.
then i though that maybe i need another rom.. so i tried xCyanogenMini - Gigglebread - v10 and got the same thing. same with Srom-2.3.3Gingerbread-v1 and then ... i decided to try to go back to factory-empty-backup and i got network connectivaty and no error messages whatsoever.
so it seems that my phone dont like non-official roms?
any help in this matter ?
thanks,
elad

1)use SEUS to clean up and install the official FW.
2)root and then install Xrecovery
30backup your fw using Xrecovery
4)copy to your sd card and rename the downloaded CM1 as update
5)install through Xrecovery using the update zip option
6)only then do a factory reset---REMEMBER only after you install your custom ROM
7)reboot
NOTE---ensure that you format your sd card(and avoid having any partition) before you start all this but of course after backing up the contents of your sd card so that you can copy all of it back again.
Best wishes.

how to make partition of sd card?

very easy--start by reading http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
....download to your pc the free software,connect your phone with the sd card in it,mount and then use what you have read carefully.
One thumb rule to remember is that the size of the partition that you create should be not more than 10% the size of your sd card---eg if you have an sd card that is 2GB in size.don't make a partition larger than 200MB....
For most of your needs,it is better to create and ext 3 partition,of course PRIMARY.

hello sathkartha and thank you very much for your quick answer !
what you described is just what i did... step by step... without success so far.
i will try to do anything again from scratch (starting with the SEUS) and hope it will do better this time... will keep u posted.
thanks again
app2sd
btw, i wanted 2 ask - according to the root article in the forum there are two main stages, the root itself and then the installataion of app2sd usind the adb shell... so.. i wanted to ask what is the app2sd for ? is it required ?
thanks!
hey,
sorry about the multiple posts... i've just tried to redo everything frmo scratch.
i payed extra attention to what i actually need todo lol since i'm still little new in this.. and i think that everything was done right (root, xrec, update rom ...) but i still get the same result. right after the initial (2mins) boot when i get the android logo and the 'click to begin' text, i'm getting the same annoying com.android.phone error and i see no network connection on the icons on the top bar.
what can be the cause? the phone seems to be working fine with the original sony rom and the other roms seems to be working fine... only with no network which brings those annyoing messages.
any ideas???
thanks
ohh this is annoying! no computer have come to defeat me so far (i'm a pretty advanced user hehe).., and as u can guess i'm still playing with this thing.
currently the biggest progress that i could make (same on every rom) is that if i'm able to tap the phone into airplane mode the errors stops (but still no network connection ofcourse). then if i leave it on airplace mode, reboot and disable airplane i'm able to go into the network setting for a sec before it crush and even get the list of providers. for a sec it seems like its connecting and then.. the same error. i tried to disable network data, to set only 2g providors.. and any setting i've tried so far gave me the same annoying com.android.phone error.
from what i can understand.. the error that i have is related to the sim card somehow? so i tried to take the usim card off and see whats up.. the result? no error but still no network connection (duh), but this time it seems like everything is working fine? i'm able to get into all of the network settings without airplane mode and etc and list the network providers but nothing more as u can guess because i dont have a sim installed.
anyway, i'm hopeless, dunno how to continue from here.
needs ideas!
thanks again everyone! and btw: this forum kickass!

just wondering---after installation of CM1 and when your phone boots and you see the opening screen with a green android with the text,you click on the android to begin okay?On the following and subsequent screens,click on 'skip' button instead of sign in etc right upto the stage it ends with 'finish'.
You will then see the launcher and the home screen from which go to 'settings'---wireless networks----mobile networks-----now on this list check and enable data traffic.By default,this is not enabled and it will not facilitate data.
This is the only thing I can think of that you may have to redo properly and wish you all the luck.
Best wishes.
no success yet...
i tried also cm2 and cm1 without success (everything is same), on each of the versions that i've installed i could somehow skip the initial setup and make some testings and all of the versions gave the same results - whenever the phone isnt on airplane mode there is an error message repeating twice each time with about a sec delay between the 'double error popups', in the sec between i'm able to use the phone.. until what i do is being halt by the error message.
once or twice (when starting the phone on airplane mode - aka starting airplane mode and rebooting) i was able to use the phone for a min or so each time with airplane mode off and with network connection (coudlnt make phonecalls but received income calls).
it seems like there is something going very wrong when the phone tries to read the usim card, the only thing i can think of is something related to the service proviers here in israel ? dunno ?
anyway, for now i gave up testings... because it doenst seem to work :-( but my phone is rooted and xrecovery-ready for future testing so please if u have an idea ... lets try! ;-) hehe
thanks again,
cheers,
elad
hey dude
the problem is as you said
the phone trying to read the usim card but it cant
i bet you are on Cellcom
the only way to fix this problem is to replace your usim card
as you know , cellcom holds yellow and white usim cards
and probably you got the yellow one
changin to the white usim will solve your mystery
if you try orange sim it will work on you phone without that error its
throwing at you

[Q] HTC Rezound trying to root for wifi tether, AmonRA didn't root? ICS

Rezound with ICS. Hi, i unlocked bootloader, flashed the AmonRA recovery, and now i have the superuser app icon. But wifi tether app said "are you rooted?"
also used a "root checker" app from the marketplace to check if i'm rooted and it said No.
in the comments section of the youtube video that i followed, someone wrote this, "The "Install SU" option in Amon RA no longer works for ICS.
You'll have to flash a SuperSu zip."
i think i have the right superSU file on my PC now, called CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip, but how do i flash that in my phone? i think i'm supposed to install the zip from sd card, and i've put it on the phone's micro SD card, but i don't know how to access it, or where to access it from. i'm afraid i need step by step instructions.
Thanks for the help, and your patience in dealing with new guys

Boot into recovery > choose install zip from sd card > locate the zip on the SD card (are you sure you put it on the SD card and not on the internal storage?).

Okay, it worked and i got the phone rooted, but having problems with the wifi tethering.
my pc recognizes and connects to the android tether wifi, but can't load any webpages. and the icon in the taskbar changes every few minutes between saying there is internet access, and then there is No internet access. Even when it says there is, it can't pull up anything. everything gets a "connection has timed out" error. So the pc has linked to the phone's wifi, but can't pull any data over the phone's 3g.
While the wifi tethering app is active, the htc rezound's internet sometimes acts funny. google play store said at first there was no connection, but eventually worked. a few times the phone wouldn't load any pages from the internet with the tethering app active.
Once i kill the tethering app, the phone goes back to normal.
I tried both the "auto" device profile, and the "generic ICS" as well as the rezound/vigor.
Thanks for telling me how to flash the zip on the SDcard. that was ez!

[Q] Installed a custom ROM; No USB Storage??

I recently downloaded the newest version of Provision and I think I may need a little help since I'm very new to all of this. I just finished installing it and now I want to put my apps and music back on it. Well I plug it into my PC and my first problem occurs, I can't activate USB storage to transfer information between the two. I can find my phone and load it's data, but when I do it's just a blank page. I try adding the music and apps but it says the device either stopped responding or was disconnected. Problem two: I go to download gapps and I get a message saying "USB storage unavailable". I can't even download things onto my phone. I went to the online Google Play market and tried to download a few things and they all gave me a message saying the app/widget will begin downloading shortly, but they never did. So now I'm stuck with a phone limited to just calls and texting. Is there a step I forgot to take or is there something wrong with the ROM I installed?
I'd ask this on the original post but I'm not allowed yet.

Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 - I think I bricked my tablet?

Hello all! I registered real quick in hopes this community could help me out with something.
So quite a while ago I rooted my Lenovo Tab 2A 10-70 tablet with KingoRoot in order to generate a logcat file. That went fine and dandy, and then I disabled some misc. apps (like Kindle for Android). I can't remember exactly what I messed with, so please bear with me.
The issue is that a couple of days ago I tried taking an image with my tablet with the default Camera app, when suddenly it started giving me some errors with generating thumbnails. Worse yet, my computer could not open these and they were seemingly corrupted. The camera started acting up as well, and claimed that "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped working." whenever I attemted to record. I tried clearing the cache based on some recommendations through others and force stopping the app, and this seemingly worked for one recording/picture, but then would stop again. I found deleting the DCIM folder entirely from my Android's Internal Storage helped, but it'd quickly corrupt again.
Frustrated, I asked a friend for help on what to do figuring he had more knowledge in Android devices then me. He suggested I tried another camera app, but I couldn't get Google Play to download anything to the internal storage or my SD card, despite clearly having enough space.
As a last resort, I tried updating through the official "Updates" app to see if that would help me, and it claimed there was a new ROM available. I tried that, but then suddenly it failed and now my tablet seems to bricked? I can now only get the "No command." screen to show up.
I've tried using the following options while on this screen:
- reboot system now - this takes me back to this menu after it shows a Lenovo screen twice, which makes me think it's having trouble booting into Android itself.
- Apply update from ADB/sdcard - Both did nothing for fairly good reason, but I checked these options out of curiosity.
- wipe data/factory reset - Tried these the very first time I got to this screen after a failed installation. It seemingly hasn't worked for me.
- wipe cache partition - Tried this a bit later, but got similar results.
- root integrity check - Scanned a bunch of .apk files, but then later threw up some errors after that was done and said the check failed.
So, in short, I'm stuck in this menu and I'm getting kind of frustrated/scared. Is there anything that I can do to save the tablet at this point? Is there something I did wrong that might have bricked it? I'm not terribly experienced with Android, so I'd love to hear some thoughts from others! I'll gladly take anyway to restore the tablet back to a point where it can actually boot into the OS, and I understand I'd lose some data doing any sort of clean install.
Thank you!

Theirs a Guide here on how to re flash your tablet back to stock
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-lenovo-tab-2-a10-70-root-t3279322
Quite a late reply, but thank you! That ended up working quite nicely! I upgraded my tablet from Lollipop to Kitkat too, which seems to be working a bit better app performance wise for me.

Q - Android 10 Apps loading error

Hi,
Just installed a fresh android Q rom on my Sammy note 9 (exynos; with august security update).
Everything is working properly besides a few local apps that required internet access (which is working properly).
I receive an error message stating that the app "failed to load. Try again later".
Any Ideas how to fix this issue?
I tried restart, power off, reinstall, delete app cache and data. install again but nothing worked.
Maybe the apps are not compatible with the august update (not yet available in my country)?
Also, I can't open Netflix as well - the app installs but when I open it I get an error.
Finally, does anyone know how to make the navigation bar black / dark mode on all apps?
Thanks!
With regards to "failed to load try again later" error:
Contact the developer of the apps in question

Well, waiting for the developers to respond/fix may take ages...
Any ideas on my end?
The cause for the error mentioned is that apps in question try to download ( additional / updated ) resources via Wi-Fi connection from the WEB, what fails.
BTW:
When you have Wi-Fi turned on, your phone automatically connects to nearby Wi-Fi networks you've connected to before. May be these saved networks became invalid. Hence you can try to remove all saved networks, then add a new one.

Gave this a shot.
Re-downloaded one of the apps from the play store only via my data plan (wifi turned off). Still no go...:crying:
