Root {DISCONTINUED}MegaTron 6.2.5 (Updated 7/13/13)

What's up guys?? I've been gone from the forums for a sec but I'm back with new delimas and questions!!! Lol and thanx to all who gave me links!!! But my very first question may be odd but my phone has not had service for at least a week now (because I didn't pay the bill). But I still get data!!! I used the network signal info app and it says its connected and its to a EvDo A network!!! It has better reception than if my phone actually had service!!! But here's the thing it shows the 3g symbol and the arrows moving and the app says it has upload and download but I can't use it??? It just runs in the background and let's me go to Google and that's it!!! Can anyone tell me why this is?? Or more importaintly how to use it!! If I try to go to any other website the boost mobile warning pops up saying my balance is not enough!! And my apps don't work with it except things like ip.config and lan droid. Help me exploit this please!! Lol Thanx guys!!!

Well pay your bill and you won't have the problem......

Are you using a theme? If so try redoing the update and don't install a theme let me know if the power button menu works

I pulled the bat.accessed cwm with volume down and power. Restored backup.. waiting for things to update..annnnddddd Im good to go everything seems to work..Thank you very much for the speedy responce.
 


hmmm ok so i was using the green theme for megatron just reinstalled it and im back to fc issue. I did a fresh backup beforehand. ill recover and stay with stock theme for now.Do you know why all of a sudden this green theme is causing my fc prob. ive had it running sence it was released just now having trouble.
 
btw slayer you should put a pic by each one of your themes on the theme list so it shows a preview what your downloading

You can't use the themes from the previous verions they are'nt compatible (go to page #1 of this thread and redowload the theme) they have been updated

Well I. Could hadrly call free data that's better than what I. Usually get when I. Do pay the bill a problem!!! Theirs gotta be a reason I still have data!!! And why. Its better!!! Geez I wish my browser loaded that fast usually!! And id like to find a way to keep it that way when I do pay the bill!!! Anyone got ideas on what's happening here??? My guess is that somehow its not a boost network but my phone is accessing it and if so than mabye I could use a proxy to make it think I was a diffrent device making the request to connect??? Or somehow boost mobile is blocking it and I mabye change my data prorfile or something?? Any info or ideas would be awesome!!!
 
@ powerkane; hey I see ur Bio says ur a prevail owner I used to have one but sold it!! I seen on the play store their was a 4g toggle!! It was blue and recommended for the evo!! But while reading comments their were more than a couple galaxy prevail users that said it was exactly what they were looking for and worked great!!!! I wonder why tho?? It kinda don't make sense
 
ok so im having a prblem with my battery... after my battery has charged to 100% i unplug it and its only at about 96%. tried doing battery calibration but no luck. so now if im on facebook or on the browser my phone will shut off all of a sudden when battery is at "X%" (not dead) and when i turn it back on it will read 1% and turn off again, i then turn the phone on again and the battery will be back to where it was the first time it shut off. any ideas? should i get a new battery? thanks guys!
 
I beg to differ, if he uses Link2SD he has to create a 1 GB partition on his SD Card especially after he formatted it in MegaTron to wipe the card along with the partition otherwise Link2SD isn't gonna work at that point... and if he's still having problems at this point it's basically cause his card is class 2, get at least a class 4 card and you're problems should cease at that point...
exactly right
 
I ended up replacing my 16gb class 2 card for a 32gb class 10 for 28.50 at newegg. There might be even better deals now, given that the price for tech has a tendency to trend down after time.

But anyway, I was having the same issue, and I needed more space anyway, so to rule out the card class, I bought a new one. I'm not sure if it has any bearing, but I noticed Mavrikmeercat's instructions say to tell Link2SD that the partition is EXT4, but when you use CWM, it actually formats it to EXT3.
In linux, ext4 is based on ext3 and link2sd actually writes over the ext3 (created by CWM) with ext4 when you tell it to mount as ext4. that is link2sd's workaround for "legacy" devices such as ours. and yes anything that actually reads the blocks of the partition will show results as ext3 because that is the base format

there is a way to partition your sd to get a true ext4. ( the only way I do it these days)

CWM has an adb console to do it from the terminal

HOW...
reboot into CWM
connect to computer
open Command/terminal
run these commands:

Code:
adb shell

Code:
sdparted -i

follow the instructions in adb and enter your choices and for sd-ext you choose ext4 and it will write the blocks as true ext4

it also gives you full control over partition sizes and such, recovery only has certain choices.

the reason I tell you this is because i've has similar issues with the phone lagging down at times too and getting "wacky" on me. I found this is because ext3 is slow in nature and also lacks a strong file structure. having the true ext4 works out much better for me.

running a 16GB Class 10 with swap=0/ sd-ext=2GB/the rest FAT32 and runs flawless now
 
Wish I could say something that could help you. My super user has an updated binary as well and have no issues. Sounds like it might be just the super user app.
we have seen random reports about it from time to time. apparently it's completely random who it happens to. my guess is it doesn't like something you're restoring..
 
My phone has been dropping to anywhere from 97 to 98% as soon as I unplug it. I've had it about a year so I just figured the battery is started to show it's age a little. As far as the other problem with shutting off by itself sorry I can't help you on that one.
