How to rescue OnePlus One not responding to touch, bootlooping

My OnePlus One has randomly decided to brick itself. It doesn't respond to touch within the recovery (darn, why didn't I use CWM with button controls...) and whenever I try to boot into one of my ROMs (I'm using MultiROM) it starts the boot process then, about 20 seconds later, goes back into the MultiROM autoboot UI. I have adb enabled and can access \sdcard but not system/data; touch works within MultiROM.

I don't expect to keep my data (except what I can salvage from the sdcard) but how do I use adb to wipe everything (including recovery) and then install a ROM from a .zip?

Many thanks!

link2sd app size incorect

Hi I was wondering someone here had a solution to my problem. I have rooted my tablet, created a ext4 partition and installed link2sd. I did this because I kept running out of space. The problem I am having is that the app size is much larger in application manager then in link2sd. For example I had the walking dead game installed which shows as1.25 gigs in app manager however only about 35 mb in link2nd so when I create the link it only saves me 35mb. Any help would be appreciated.

When trying to replace two character with one the application crashes. It works fine with one character replacement

tt = new TextWatcher() { public void afterTextChanged(Editable s){ et.setSelection(s.length());

            }
            public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s,int start,int count, int after){}
            public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
                et.removeTextChangedListener(tt);
                String tvalue = et.getText().toString();
                tvalue = tvalue.replaceAll("k", "ક");;

//THE ABOVE line replaces "k" with "ક" WORKS FINE BUT THE BELOW replacing "કh" with "ખ" DOES NOT. IT CRASHES

                tvalue = tvalue.replaceAll("કh", "ખ");

      et.addTextChangedListener(tt);
            }
        };
        et.addTextChangedListener(tt);
    }

How to mount an ext3 partition from an external sd card on android

I'm trying to run Debian on the Android 4.4 (modded with cyanogenmod) that's installed on my nexus 10 to external sdcard. I'm reading this tutorial :

http://ift.tt/1iiwWx8

I've attached the Leef microSD microUSB Connector to the mini usb port of my nexus 10 as you can see here :

I've created two partitions on the sd card,as explained on the tutorial. The first is formatted with fat fs and the second one with ext3 file system. This is what I did when I've prepared the sd card partitions on the desktop computer :

Disk /dev/sdf: 64.0 GB, 64021856256 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7783 cylinders, total 125042688 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0004504c

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdf1            2048    32767999    16382976    b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sdf2        32768000   125042687    46137344   83  Linux

When I attach the leef connector,only the fat32 partition is recognized by android,but not the ext3. This is the mount points that I see :

To proceed with the tutorial I need to mount the second partition where should be installed the debian OS. How can I do this ? thanks.

So far the check list is below:

• Android have to running in Japanese


• Need to set the clock to Tokyo time


• A mobile card which setup international roaming


• A VPN to japan IP block.


• Root the BlueStack to pretended to be a Sony Phone


• use Network spoofer to pretended to be on Japan Mobile provider.

Prevent my phone from being locked of multiple password attempts

It already happened three times. My Motorola XT890 locked itself from being kept in the pocket trying to guess a password, ending up with the 'too many password attempts' screen and requiring Internet connection to get unlocked via a Google Account.

The problem is that if there's no Internet connection, the system won't offer a standard way of activate it and authenticate, leaving us to a factory reset and some other complicated ways to bypass this problem.

How can I prevent this from happening again? I ask in terms of what I can do when the phone is unlocked and usable.
