Seems there might be a trend towards phones coming with non-removeable batteries.
Is there a definite way of rebooting one of these phones if it crashes or freezes on the odd occasion?

I have a clone of the iPhone 5, which hangs in the mediatek screen.The phone will then start the recovery mode (cmw). I can flesh the rom from cmw but do not know which file to flesh..The mobile phone does not have a removable battery but is welded with 2 wires to the motherboard, there are no written on the cover.The motherboard is written D09_MB_V2.2 2012 1126 and inside I found a memory card 8Gb.

I am a budding developer in Android platform..while I have developed some small tools on Android, the project which I am on now demands a unique requirement.. I want to keep the phone running my application always on and must boot up automatically when a charger cable is plugged in. I know this question has been asked many times and there are many threads for this. But to no real answers..
I had managed to do the auto boot on power insert by editing a script called "battery-charging" in /system/bin in a version of Android I used earlier.
I managed to get the same effect in another device (a Samsung phone) by editing /system/bin/chargemon
Forum rule says I cannot post the external link ... this is how I did achieve what I wanted earlier...
Code:
echo "echo skipping chargemon" > chargemon.script
adb pull /system/bin/chargemon chargemon.backup
adb push chargemon.script /sqlite_stmt_journals
adb shell
$ cd /sqlite_stmt_journals
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
# cat chargemon.script > /system/bin/chargemon
# chmod 755 /system/bin/chargemon
# reboot -p
'
But I have been handed over a phone running Android 2.2.1 where I could not find both "chargemon" or any file regarding battery charging status in the /system/bin or in any other path.
I just have to edit the script which executes the battery charging animation graphics when the phone is switched off but is powered up to allow the phone to reboot.
which file to edit to make the phone reboot instead of just showing battery being charged..
I've powered off and pulled the battery. I've also deleted any Samsung drivers on my computer. If this problem requires a "hard reset" I'll wait till 2.1 because that (most likely) wipes all data which is what a hard reset will do anyway, yes? I'm caught in some weird USB connect boot loop. I've got debugging off, I plug USB from computer to phone, I get "USB connected" in notification bar. Ok everything seems cool, right? I use pull down menu to connect, get the "select mount" screen, I press mount then I get "turn off USB card" and then "preparing USB card".
Both in quick succession in the notification bar and then I'm back to"USB connected" again over and over and over again. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and if I open up Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Devices and printers, I can see that the computer sees something and is calling it SAMSUNG_Android and if I right click that icon to browse files, it comes up as Removable Disk (I) and it's grayed out and I can't get in. If I take the SD card out of the phone and plug it into the computer via microSD adapter, it reads it just fine.
I have a question about some removed apps from a Gingerbread os. I can't seem to find any real Detailed info on these 8 files below. I want to know what each one is what it does and if they rely on others to be installed, and mostly do they need to be/should they be installed:
Dun.apk
FactoryTest.apk
InputEventApp.apk
JobManager.apk[code]....
I went through the long process of setting up my new Evo LTE yesterday. Basically, installing and configuring a bunch of apps. Everything was looking good and working well. So the last thing that I decided to do last night was to give it a reboot. I saw it reboot (and was nice and fast) so I walked away. When I came back I noticed that it seemed to be rebooting again. So I watched it. The phone starts up and I can unlock it. I see items in the notification bar starting, I see a message right above the bottom menu bar appear stating "Content update error. Try again later.", and then about 30 seconds later the screen goes gray and then reboots. I have time to get in and look at settings and uninstall things - about 1 minute. But I really do not know where to start.
Is there a way of preventing apps from auto starting at boot? The phone is stock (no root).
any app to reboot phone without root?

Today, i updated my new unlocked Samsung galaxy s3 gt-9300 from JellyBean 4.1.2. to Official JellyBean 4.3 using below mentioned file

After successful upgrade using the odin 3.07, the phone didn't reboot automatically. Instead, keeps on blinking the initial screen "Samsung galaxy s3 GT9300" how to resolve this issue,
I got the upgrade to Froyo yesterday AM.Twice during the day it unlocked and I had a msg "Loading" while my icons loaded. Then this morning it did the same thing, but it didn't have the name of the program under the icon, plus my buttons for "Phone" weren't there.So I pulled the battery and it was back to normal.I've never really had these issues prior to the upgrade, but if rebooting is a part of the process then I'm curious if there is a way to reboot without having to pull off the case, separate the back door and pull the battery out. Anyone know?

Often at night before I go to bed I'll plug it in to the charger, and the 'charging' icon doesn't appear. I left it overnight, and sure enough, it didn't charge.
I powered off, rebooted, and it is now showing the 'charging' icon. This has happened before.
So I was out on my motorcycle and had about 60% battery left on my Vibrant.Figuring I wasn't going to need the phone for a few hours I powered the phone off, calling myself saving battery.When I turned the phone back on I was totally surprised that the battery was down to 38% immediately following powering up.This happens every time I power the phone down-I lose about 20% consistently.It also happens when google maps shits itself and either freezes the phone (necessitating a battery pull reset) or causes a spontaneous reboot.Is this normal? I've had my phone for a bit over two weeks (so out of my remorse period) and my besides this my battery works and lasts rather well, considering how much this phone has going on.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just got a new battery for my Droid, and the battery came 60% charged. So I did the battery drain until it powered off. I then put it on the dock to do a full charge, and now the phone is in a constant boot loop. It reboots up to the home screen and mounts the SD card. It stays on for about 5 seconds after mounting the card, and then reboots. I tried just plugging it into the charger w/o the dock, and still does the same thing. I have also tried pulling the battery, putting it back in and charge. Same. I have even tried doing a power down from the home screen within the 5-10 seconds the home screen stays on, but no luck. It turns off before it completes the shutdown and reboots again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a sprint GNex. I just started having this problem recently (but before the 4.3 update). I plug my phone in overnight and at some point in the middle of the night an error occurs that make the phone think it is off the charger and has a fully depleted battery. The battery level icon shows no charge and if I pull the phone off the charger it immediately says it has to shut down due to a low battery. However, as soon as I turn it back on it is back to normal with a full charge.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFrom what I've been able to find, Android apps are sandboxed, and can only list, read, and write files within the application's data directory (e.g. /data/data/<pkgname>). but, what about an application that allows users to view photos on an SD card (or play music, etc)? Surely this must be possible. Does one have to write a Service Provider for this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedIn my project, in the res/drawable directory I have:
CODE:.......................
When I put the app on my HTC Hero, it works fine. But if I reboot the phone, the application icon stops using the icon.png, and instead begins to use the go_bg.png. The button that uses the go.xml no longer works either. Rebooting the phone basically breaks the app. I can reinstall the app and it again works fine all up until I reboot.
I know of two ways to get the app on the phone, first using Eclipse and second using the HTC Sync software that came with the phone. Installing the app either way produces the same issues in the end.
I've tried renaming the button image names and the xml file. Nothing helps there.
My phone is the HTC Hero. In Eclipse I'm building using the 1.5 SDK.
Any idea why rebooting my phone breaks my app?
I'm trying to programmatically reboot the phone by pressing a button.
Currently I'm doing something like this:

Where _rebootButton is an instance of Button (of course @_@).
However it does not do the job.
