General :: Android Gets Into A Hotboot Looping State For Unknown Reason

Jul 7, 2013

My Galaxy S3 is frequently getting into hotboot looping state for no apparent reason. The only way to get it out of this state is to wipe the phone or restore a backup of the "data" folder only. After that, it might work for a week, but it might not work for a day (not work = start to hotboot loop). It happens when after the phone screen is locked, it doesn't wake up anymore. It doesn't answers to any calls (like if it's off) or notifications.Forcing a reboot (by holding the power button) or removing the battery able me to reboot it, but enter in hotboot looping state. I can make it go thru the whole booting state and I see the homescreen (And that's weird because I'm supposed to see the lockscreen first). Some widgets animation works but the device doesn't answer to touch (two softbuttons vibrates when touched, they do vibrate but don't render anything on Android) and then hotboots. Keeps doing this forever. Booting into safemode USED to work, but it doesn't work anymore, I don't know why.

After wiping the device or restoring the Data backup, device turns on as expected (restoring data takes it back to working state exactly like it was before the backup, even the same lockscreen pattern). I've tried to leave a terminal running logcat to catch the error, but it doesn't write in realtime, so when the bug breaks out, the logfile is empty.

I even thought it could be the S3 memory issue with firmware, but I'm using the "fixed" kernels. Also, it is recoverable, and not permanently dead.

I suspect of some rogue app, but I have too many apps to just go through installing one by one (and waiting even weeks to install the other one). Is there any way I can get a postmortem logfile or make logcat write in realtime?

General :: Galaxy Ace - Stuck In Boot Loop For Unknown Reason?

Feb 17, 2014

My Samsung Galaxy Ace (S5830) running under a custom ROM The Ultimatum (I've been using this custom firmware for a few weeks now, with no real problems up until now), is bootlooping with no apparent reason. On a rare occasion, most apps on the phone stopped responding and would crash upon opening, and would require a restart before they worked again. Well this happened to me a few hours ago, so I decided to reboot my phone. After coming back to check my phone, I had found it was still booting. This has gone on for several hours now, and I've tried turning it on and off, removing batteries and everything. It's stuck in boot loop. I found this was odd, as I have had no dramas with the firmware I've been using. I have not made ANY recent changes to the phone whatsoever, so I can hardly believe it would be my fault.

how do I fix this without wiping all data and installing a clean ROM? I have a lot of stuff in the internal storage I can't afford to lose, and it's really important to me.

General :: Boot Looping ROM After Recompiling?

Jan 3, 2014

I have an Amazon Kindle Fire HD 7" (the 2012 one, not the 2013 one), and I am trying to pre-root the stock software for it (version 7.4.6). I downloaded the update in a .bin format, renamed it to .zip and de-compiled it with 7-zip. I put the su and busybox binaries in "/system/xbin/", and added CWM's Superuser.apk to "/system/app/", and added a couple of more tweaks to it as well.

I adjusted the update-script file accordingly, and re-compiled the ROM. I moved it over to my Kindle, rebooted into recovery, wiped, flashed, and... bootloop and eventual TWRP.

General :: Setting Auto Looping Video On Boot (Not Bootloop)

Dec 9, 2011

Just wanted to ask if there are any apps or utilities for android 2.3 devices that can autoplay a video on boot and loop it forever until the user closes the app. (Preferably if it will let me re-start the loop on restarting the app). Its for using a tablet as a display unit.

Android :: Changing Displayed State Of Views Based On Parent ViewGroup's State

Aug 11, 2010

I have a compound UI component built up from a ViewGroup containing a number of TextView, ImageView etc. components. Many of these have StateListDrawables as their images/backgrounds. Is there any way of making them select from this drawable based on the state of the parent ViewGroup rather than the component itself? Ideally I want to be able to change the visual state of all children of the ViewGroup (text colour, image etc) based on the state of the ViewGroup, preferably without having to hook up complex logical code. This seems like a fairly common sort of requirement, so I was hoping it would be straightforward in Android - am I going to be disappointed?

Android :: Phone State Listener State Transitions

Feb 8, 2009

I'm a little confused by what I'm seeing with regards to phone state transitions via the PhoneStateListener. When I receive a call, this is what happens: (call comes in) RINGING -> IDLE (I pick up) OFFHOOK (I hang up) IDLE It's that first transition from RINGING to IDLE without any interaction from me (not ending the call, not answering the call) that confuses me. Do I really have to implement an idle counter to know that an incoming call has really ended? Seems like the reported phone state represents some sort of phone state that isn't the obvious one.Is this a bug or am I just not in tune with the paradigm here?

Android :: Looking For Looping Timer

Sep 27, 2010

I have to give a 20x20 presentation tomorrow and I'm looking for a timer app to help out. 20x20 means that each slide auto-advances after 20 seconds. I'd like to have a timer on my phone that would give me a quick glance of how much time I have left for each slide. Start it at 20 seconds, have it count down and when it hits zero, start over at 20. Seeing as it's just a timer app, I really would rather not pay $2 for StopWatch & Timer, which is the only one I've found that offers a looping timer. Does anyone have any ideas?

Android :: Looping Through Interface Elements?

Sep 2, 2009

This is probably a very "newbie" question as I'm relatively new to the android sdk, but figured this would be good place to ask.

Say you have a layout with several textviews that all have sequential IDs (ie, tBox1, tBox2, tBox3, etc).Is it possible to reference each box in a loop? Something like:

do { iCount++; View tvBox1 = findViewById(R.id.tBox[iCount]); }

General :: Any Way To Determine SoC In Unknown Android Device?

Mar 26, 2013

When I get handed a new and previously unknown Android device (typically from a minor player), is there a way to figure out which components it is made of, such as the SoC, the flash chip, the RAM type etc. (Assuming noone else has posted the info of cause)?

In other words are there any tools (other than a screwdriver) for finding this out directly from the device, preferably without rooting (as some of this info may be needed to pick a rooting method...)?

General :: Battery Drain For No Apparent Reason

Jun 1, 2013

Just recently, my captivate battery has been draining very fast. I've been going from 100% to 0 in about 8-12 hours. The main battery consumer is Android System. There are no processes that are keeping the phone on according to BatterBatteryStats. I loose about 7-8 percent every hour while it is in idle/deep sleep. If I enable the extreme setting on Juice Defender, it bumps up the battery life to about 45+ hours. But if I use juice defender, sending and receiving mms is very difficult. I tried it on another spare battery and it gave me the same results. This problem started earlier this week and was present when I first flashed a ICS rom back in June and hasn't gone away yet. I did not change any settings or flash anything new to my phone. One day it suddenly went from 100% to 40% in 5 hours and after I rebooted it dropped to 5% in a matter of minutes. I recalibrated the battery but that did not do anything.

General :: ROM Dumping Unknown Android Device Using Windows 7 64bit

Jan 3, 2013

I am attempting to pull an image from an unknown android device. I am running into a few issues:

When I attempt to pull the image by using the command in ADB : dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1 of =/sdcard/boot.img I get the error write Error: File too large.

This happens when getting to the 4.0 GB mark, (assuming this is an issue with FAT32)

Is there an adb command to do a rom dump directly to my PC? Is there an application?

General :: App To Only Allow Unknown Numbers?

Feb 22, 2013

My boyfriend just left for Basic Training for the Army, and I should be expecting a call from him soon, and then possibly every Sunday. It could be from his phone, or a phone at the base, I don't know which.

I work weekends so I need to find an app that will only allow incoming calls from my boyfriends number and ALL unknown numbers.

I've been able to find apps to add people to "VIP" lists, but not one that also allows the silencing of my entire contact list and allows Unknown.

(I'm trying to avoid downloading an app and manually going in and silencing everyone.

General :: Media Scanner Battery Drain - Searching For Reason

Jun 22, 2012

I am experiencing massive battery drain from *wakelock*/mediaplayer while music playback.

For now, i have tried everything:

- full wipe
- music playback on fresh wiped rom
- formatting sdcard / internal storage
- disabling media server
- debugging with logcat
- ...

Currently, the mediaserver drains more power then any other process, including screen. The phone gets not hot, but warm while only playing music with screen off. That was not happening before, as i listen music daily.

After all, the problem is most likely caused by a corrupt file, but how can i locate this file ? I have 2300 mp3s on my phone, so testing every single one would be a bit complicated...

Motorola Droid :: SDcard Boot Looping?

Apr 12, 2010

Im having a problem with boot looping on my rooted and rom'd droid. I dont know what happens to make it occur but sometimes after just running the phone it will start and I cant get it to stop.

What happens is:
1: Anytime i re-mount my SDcard
2: any time i boot

It will sit there and boot loop. Remounting the card causes the phone to crash to boot animation, and when it trys to start it show 'scanning SDcard" or whatever and then crashes... on the 3rd or 4th time it finally will get working. But it extremely annoying when your adding appps or working on the phone during a call. Does anyone know why this happens?
Somethings i know DONT affect it:

Rom im running - ive had it happen on chevy, pete and adam and stock (FML)
Overclock - Had it happen on stock kernal and OC
Re-Root - Ive SBF'd and it will still occur but randomly
SDcard errors - Windows shows no errors on disk
