OK, I'd appreciate some help here. I Just downloaded Zenmaster's Reboot button app. I probably made a mistake by going to ROM manager and its install from SD card option.
The install started out fine, but just stalled at installing update. Left it there for 30 minutes.
I did a battery pull and the phone went into recovery except it says at the bottom of the screen:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk01p1
(Invalid Arguement)
#MANUAL MODE#
The upper screen has the typical
reboot system now
Apply sdcard...
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
Nothing happens with either reboot system now or apply from sdcard
So I really would appreciate...what now.
Are you rooted? Do you have Clockwork Recovery installed?
Are you hitting the "Home" soft button key on the Reboot option? That's the "Enter" key for the stock recovery screen, not the Power button like it is for Clockwork.

Thanks for your response.
Yes I'm rooted and yes I have CWM.
This is embarrassing now, because I WAS NOT hitting the home button, which I should have known to do, but obviously forgot. Did that and I'm back up. Old Droid habits die hard I guess.
My apologies for using up bandwidth and thank you again.

That's okay, I believe I freaked out the first time I was in stock recovery as well not getting any response from the power button

Yeah, that's not gonna work. The app is a .apk file, which gets installed via adb or Root Manager/Astro. It's not a flashable zip.
It's also now available on the market .

Bonus. That is fantastic news.
Well naming the .zip to .apk worked and Reboot Button worked. Sort of. I think what happened here was no fault of the app, but something related to the relationship between my phone and voodoo. I had never seen any particular problem on my phone, but I just wanted a way to disable the thing as I was contemplating flashing jt's ROM.
Well the disabling of voodo lost root on my phone. I use Launcher Pro and that was gone too. So I tried reinstalling that and entered a force close loop from hell. After installing the LP, the phone regressed to the same opening screen it had when out of the box, different from the static wallpaper I had.
There is a thread on this here:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/fascinate-roms-hacks/38029-how-escape-force-close-loop-hell.html
I followed that and got back to the out of the box Fascinate state. Only part of my apps, and not all of the paid ones showed up in Market, even after an overnight wait. The significant missing one is Documents to Go.
There was 0.00 space left on internal memory, so I did a factory reset.
This would not be a big deal, BUT the phone will not root, so I can't use Titanium Backup to restore stuff. The Samsung Drivers are installed, the USB cable is the one that came with the phone, and the computer recognizes the device. However, Odin seems to think the device is not connected.
So, I'm not sure what is going on with this phone of mine. Again, I don't think it is the app.
Edit; All is back to normal
Hi i have a MyTouch 4G rooted with Virtuous Fusion ROM. Everything was working until when I tried to install Miui Music Player on it. I did adb push but after doing it when i unplugged the phone from my computer several Force Close came up then i rebooted my phone then the MYTOUCH Tmobile logo start up screen came then the HTC logo came then my phone will shut down. I tried to start my phone again the same thing happen. I did Hboot and tried recovery from there but it didnt work. I tried Factory Reset but it failed. I go to clockwork recovery mode if i do backup and restore or factory reset nothing happens. Does it mean my phone is gone? Is there anything i can do to fix it? Please anybody help Does this mean my phone i bricked

Are you clicking the trackpad to make the selection? I ask because some people have tried using other buttons to select and then thought their phone was bricked.

Great minds think alike. Hopefully that was his only problem. I have to say though, there's something pretty funny about someone thinking their phone is bricked because they're using the wrong button to make selections in recovery! I'm not making fun of anyone, but it does make my chuckle a little.

If the ROM still won't boot, I would wipe data, cache, and Dalvik-Cache, and then flash the ROM again (assuming the zip is still on your SD).

Wipe each item once. I think the new recoveries wipe everything when you select 'data', but do the other items just to be sure. Dalvik-Cache is under the Advanced section.
Thanks a lot. My phone working now!

Hi thanks a lot for your help. Your Track pad solution is golden. My phone is working now. Take care and keep helping people
Glad I could help.
Haha I feel for you OP I had this problem at first (came from an EVO didn't have a trackpad) so I was confused. Didn't take much before I realized it was the trackpad inside. My new problem is my trackpad broke lol. So now I can't select anything (in the OS or in the Recovery) somehow I got the power button to work one time while I was in recovery (little white writing even came up like it does when you flash a rom that said "power button select enabled") never got this to happen again though, any ideas?

Hi guys!
I´m having this very annoying issue with my galaxy...
As soon as i open the dialer and try to punch in some numbers, the application just ends! Same thing goes if i try to access the call logs directly, just chrashes (not FC´s) right back to the homescreen!!
I have to open the dialer like 4-5 times before eventually being able to do anything at all with it.
Tried factory reset, didn´t work
Phone is a galaxy with 2.3.3 with JVH and 2.6.35.7 kernel, rooted
Please help!

Already did that, and dalvik and also fixed permissions in the recovery menu, still no effect
I also have this problem, including with stock JVH.
I have tried a lot, including:
Flashing a different lower firmware and upgrading through Kies.
Doing full reflashes though Odin.
Uninstalling all apps and reinstalling one by one (but the problem has been impossible to pinpoint
Taking all contacts of my Exchange account, going through them one by one, exporting them and reimporting them to fix any issue with those.
Clearing all caches, etc
Nothing has helped so I finally just installed another dialer from the market and with this there have been no problems. It's very annoying though because I like the stock apps.
Try searching for phone.apk for jvh an then replace it on system/app by using root explorer or other file manager
U could also download another dialer like (Go Dialer) but when u search at the market search Go Contacts it will install dialer with contacts list.. after that-(optional) go to system/app change phone.apk for phone.apk.bak.. this will delete the phone but u will keep it saved on system/app when u want it back just rename it phone.apk

I´m not following? are you suggesting that i reflash the phone with a new rom? i like the stock one so that doesn´t do it for me..
youve got some mess on system partition that is resulting in phone aplication fatal errors that closes it (btw can you copypaste logcat part when this app fails)
aside there might be other modules not working as suposed that you are not noticing because they do not force close but they can for example make some proceses not go into idle = more battery consumed idk there might be a milion things that are going wrong due this incompatybility
by this flash order i suggest you to revert to froyo and do a factory reset there (because ive noticed myself tons of times factory reset failing on all gb releases and never on froyo - must be some gb/ or maybe rooting issue) and ive noticed new files not beeing copied on fresh fw instalation because of that all that on gb and never while upgrading from froyo
what i am proposing here is flash order that is always working for me and ive developed it after countles hours of reflashes - and hey i never had any drain any force close problems =)
thats just friendly xda advice - make it or not i do not care but i would be happy if that would help you
common issue also is reverting backup files from previous system version to current one (people restore system files from eg jve to jvq and are amazed that their phone forcloses on most apps or somrthing) you can not use some system files backup from previous on current firmware
So how do i do this then? bare in mind that i´ve never flashed a phone...ever
just a second, i will find youa nice tutorial =) refresh after like 10 minutes ;]]]
Thanks a billion!!
My advise,
Flash the original stock rom you want, (not any deodexed rom!)
Flash the kernel you want via odin
Reboot into recovery mode
Do "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition"
Don't restore any backup

Funny thing, i actually downloaded Go Contacts in order to do a contact backup, but that´s actually a better dialer and call log app than the stock one
I´m thinking of maybe keeping this one instead of the stock one for now?
feel free to do that =)

This ROM should work with any 'L'. I live in the US. When the phone first booted up, it was in Portugues. I just changed it to English. After I installed CWM and rooted the phone, used Titanium Backup to uninstall all of the bloatware. The ROM is now very lite and smooth.
Here is a screen

Done this 3 times same result.
Also multi window is greyed out?
The only thing I would suggest checking is Setting, More, Security, Device Administrator and see if there is any setting that you can play around with. Otherwise, do a complete wipe and reflash the ROM. I went from stock 4.1.2 to this ROM without any issue.

flashed twrp on the naked phone and installed the backup from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/oxygenos-4-5-1-backup-t3626167 (made a misstake and wiped system).
so device should be stock. no apps installed. real naked phone
I guess you have to wait for the original stock firmware straight from OnePlus and then make a clean flash. If it worked of out the box it should work after original firmware.
dont knowif it worked out of the box. powered on and flashed twrp. but will try a clean flash

Well, at least we know that this isn't a hardware problem. We just have to wait for the full zip.

In my case the "gaming do not disturb" mode was on (I dont know how ... ) anyway if you have the same issue you can go to Settings->Advanced->Gaming Do Not Disturb and uncheck Lock Buttons.
