[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Raa_1:
Yes I see what you mean now, and my issue is a different one (SIM not device PIN).

Since your work is issuing device policies, my thought would be it's a policy issue, and quite honestly, I wouldn't try and mess around with a device that's under I.T. direction.

Having said that, i'd likely say your problem is a corrupted WinMo password as Android has nothing whatsever to do with WinMo's side of things. And as mentioned before, it can happen with varying (mainly unknown - grr) reasons why.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuff:
The USB on my phone has jacked up somehow. It will charge, but refuses to connect to my PC to mount the SD card.

I have 2 captivates, one works, one doesn't. Using the same USB cord and port, so I know the drivers are installed properly. (Since one phone works perfectly).

So, I have Gingerbread 2.3.3 (Mikeys) flashed on it. Is there any way I can restore back to factory without needing to use odin? Since it wont connect via usb, I cannot get it to work.

I can get a .zip on the phone by using dropbox and downloading it, or just dling straight from the internet.

Basically is there a rom or zip that will flash everything back to stock so I can take it into an att repair shop and they will replace it?

thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Nope, you can flash cognition, that has a froyo secondary boot loader in it so flashing that from gingerbread will result in a hard brick. Go up to att, play dumb tell them you were using kies to update and it never came back on. They should replace it with no, or very few questions asked.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuff:
Well, your idea is good.

I got it to connect via usb after wiggling it big time, and odin found it so I tried to reformat the phone to stock really fast.

I literally didn't touch the phone and it became disconnected, according to odin, and stopped flashing durig the factory.fs. Now it's a hard brick :P

I'll just take it in tomorrow and say I was updating it and something happened.

I've had luck replacing old phones like the HTC Kaiser. Every time I took it up there, they fiddled with it for a few minutes, then gave me a replacement. (I think I bricked the Kaiser at one point and got a replacement).

This should be fun, lol.

[Vibrant General] PJcastaldo:
One is the Vibrant closest to the building literally a few feet from where i was standing by the entrance to the breeze way, im running the latest Malice no mods other than i run the Bullit Kernel.

The other is the G2 Running the latest CM7 release on the newest Radio with correct libs, you can see how much farther away..

Even walking around the Vibrants GPS stayed a closer lock. Now i will say it did take the Vibrant did take a few more seconds to lock.. but only seconds...

EDIT: i will say that it wasn't untill we started into 2.2 that this got better.. but this is the first time i made a side by side comparison with the G2..
[Vibrant General] Metzenw:
I've had good luck with my gps, I've gotten down to 14.4 feet accuracy with GPS Test in my front yard, and Tracking on Google maps is almost dead nuts. But if its a cloudy day, which its more often then not these last few months in Washington, my gps doesn't work for crap, Locks take like 30 seconds, tracking is Horrible, accuracy of 200 feet.
[Vibrant General] Tarzanman:
Say what you want, but the fact is that the GPS on the G1 (a phone that is two years older) completely destroys any GPS+fix on the Vibrant.

Its a well known, and rarely disputed weakness for the Vibrant. Shame on Samsung for not doing more rigorous testing of the chipset or not taking the chipset manufacturer to task.
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
Just because another phone's GPS sucks more than the Vibrant doesn't mean the Vibrant has good GPS.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
speak for yourself. when i compared them my vibrant was better than my g1. the vibrant was also better than my wife's cliq and mt slide (granted, these two aren't amazing phones, i've never heard of gps complaints with them).

my only complaint about gps is mine doesn't currently work on my vibrant (cm7).
[Vibrant General] inconceeeivable:
Strange. I have a MT3G Slide as well, and its GPS destroys my Vibrant's.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
well, based on xda posts, i'm a minority to begin with cause i've never really had problems with my gps on my vibrant.

and how exactly does it 'destroy' the vibrant's gps?
[Vibrant General] inconceeeivable:
It is significantly faster and more accurate than my particular Vibrant. I have a July 2010 model though...that may be why.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
My GPS is good too. Granted it does take a up to a few minutes to lock, when it does, its dead accurate and consistent.
[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
I've proven otherwise. I don't feel like sifting through my posts, but I have pictures of the two side-by-side with wifi off running GPSTest and in Google Maps. The Vibrant was closer.
[Vibrant General] SykesAT:
I wish. I'm on my third and they have all suffered from long lock, inability to maintain lock (losing signal all together) lastly, while locked and navigating it will jump locations.

I don't think any GPS has zero issues but the amount of issues I have had with all three Vibrants leads me to think it's hardware and broken.

I do find it amazing that there are such varying views on the Vibrants GPS, but after three units I gave up trying to get a good one.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
i find the varying experience strange as well. but i've had mine since release and the gps has always worked (though, it improved after flashing from stock 2.1).
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
My Samsung Jack, HTC Aria, HTC HD2, and HTC HD7 destroy both of our Vibrants here when it comes to the GPS. The HTC HD# phones especially... They embarass it in Accuracy and Lock Speeds. It isn't even comparable.

I've been through 3 Vibrants and there is another in use here, so I'm pretty sure it's not a lemon device issue. The GPS is just very bad on these phones.

But who cares... The phone is almost old now and many people with it are already eying an upgrade. I think most of us have learned to accept it and moved on from complaining about it - months ago...
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
That means your GPS is terrible.

When you turn it on and want to use a Location App that relies on GPS data, you have to wait a few minutes for it to lock and get an accurate location? 3 minutes to do a Foursquare/Facebook checkin? Lol...

That is "good" to you?
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
The Accuracy has never been that big of an issue for me, it's the lock speeds. But the Vibrant has never been as accurate as my other phones.

At stop lights the GPS goes crazy more than occasionally, and it loses its lock.

When it loses it's lock, that means you have to wait forever for it to lock again.

The slow lock speeds also means every task that depends on GPS data is ridiculously slow to accomplish compared to phones with a good GPS in them.

Most people who need a good GPS in their phone don't necessarily need the phone to just sit there giving them directions. They need it for apps like Foursquare, Loopt, Layer, Facebook Checkin, Localized Tweets, sharing location data in messaging applications, and embedding location data in photos.

With the Vibrant's lock speeds, it's almost useless for much of that.

I've also owned Blackberries (9300, 9780 Curve/Bold) and the GPS outperformed the Vibrant.

Another thing I noticed is that the Vibrant battery life with GPS on is significantly worse than other phones. I've never thought to turn my phone's GPS off, ever, until I got this phone...
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
My GPS has worked fine since, since, well I can't remember when. I just know it's been working great since I stopped obsessing over it's 3 meter accuracy. The compass could be better but whatever. Who gives a flying flip if it takes 5 seconds longer to lock than my Droid X? I'd still choose this over any current motorola, and HTC phone currently on the market. It's not a GPS device; It's a smartphone.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Unfortunately a lot of smartphone apps rely on GPS and an extra 5 seconds to lock everytime you check in, take a picture, want to get accurate location-guided results, etc. is a pain in the ass.

It may not seem like a lot at first (it's more than 5 seconds, factorably more, but I don't wanna deal with that right now), but at the end of a day it has done nothing more than degrade the user experience and waste a factorable amount of cumulative time.

You have to alter all of your usage patterns to account for the faulty GPS.

It's an issue, but I can care less. That's why I got another phone: so I didn't have to sweat it :P
[Vibrant General] PJcastaldo:
WOW, it is crazy how much variety there is in not only accuracy but lock times as well.. I just pulled out my G1 and my MT3G and neither of them locked faster than the vibrant, but those showed me standing in the same spot as the vibrant.. LOL the G2 is still way off...

As for jumping at red lights.. i just figured that was normal since even my G1 and MT3G where the same (i mean by a few feet when stopped)... lol guess i was wrong ha..

So what do you guys think? Do you think the SGS II will have GPS issues? or has Sammy learned?

I am fyi a Samsung supporter, i honestly watched and laughed so hard about people crying over updates when other phones from more popular companies did it as-well.. Every one should know it is totally up to your provider.. ok enough on a tangent..
[Vibrant General] billwinkle:
Just for comparisions sake, I have both a Vibrant and a MT4G. The vibrant running Trigger 3.2 gets an average 15 foot lock which is the best of any rom. The MT4G gets a 3 foot lock. Yes 3 foot. Simply amazing.

BTW dont ever rely on any phones gps when traveling. When you are out of cell reception you also lose your gps. You could end up hopelessly lost or worse. If you need gps that bad, I recommend a real gps device. While gps is good for around town don't risk yours and your families lives. Most of the horror stories you read about in the news with people getting lost using gps are usually phone gps.
[Vibrant General] PJcastaldo:
Thats good stuff.. Question, arnt the MT4G and the G2 almost the same phone? If so whys it so much better than my G2.. LoL

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
I have seen somewhere that is is possible to plug the usb connector into the wall wart backwards ( usually will only go in one way). Check to see that you have the plug in the correct way.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] big3l:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
try separating the two piece of the wall chargers and put them back together. It happened to me once and that's how I fixed it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Physically impossible without damaging the wall wart. The USB jack is standard, and was specifically designed to prevent being plugged in backwards.

Is it just me, or are they exceptionally hard to take apart and put back together? I was actually scared I was going to break it, joining them, it took so much force. I've not yet dared take them back apart...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] EMINENT1:
What did you do? If it's off and then turned on, it wouldn't be in sleep anymore so it should work.

What if I did a factory reset? Would that fix it? What happens? Does it revert to original firmware it shipped with even though I did the manual update? F

[Eee Pad Transformer General] racerxe24:
Has anybody else had this happen to them? Is there a fuse in the part that plugs into the wall of the charger? I guess I will try and call ASUS and find out if they might have a clue....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jakirkla:
Just bought my TF and Dock today and I'm already having this issue. Anyone have any concrete ideas about how to fix this?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jakirkla:
I figured it out. As other had suggested, I disassembed the power plug and reassembled it. That did not fix it. I then disassembled it again and inspected more carefully how it was constructed. What I realized is that the prongs on the main charger piece might not be making a strong enough connection to the US adapter that clips onto it. Thus, I took a knife and very gently pryed the prongs outward just a tiny bit up from the main charger piece. I then reassembled it and found that it was now able to charge my eee pad. Hopefully this helps others.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] effwun:
I think it's most likely a faulty wall adapter. I got mine the day it was released, realized within a few hours that my charger didn't work, at all, in any outlet in any orientation. RMA'ed the wall adapter, then got Asus to cross ship me an adapter, or they were supposed to. 10 days later and it hasn't shipped and no one at surprisingly unknowledgeable customer center. I can't really call it customer service because you don't get any service from them. About 50% of the time you don't get disconnected and end up talking to someone for about five minutes before you realize there have been times where an inanimate object has understood you better this actual human being does. I know this sounds rude, but, people who know me say I'm a pretty laid back person, things just don't get to me usually. But, I seriously hate Asus' customer center. My Transformer is pretty much plugged in to USB 16 or more hours per day. Good luck getting a new wall adapter from Asus. I was looking to just buy a new charger but I can't find them for sale anywhere.

edit - Even tried prying the plugs out. Nada.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] racerxe24:
I was playing with the wall adapter while on the phone with ASUS Customer Support. After a 5 minute dissertation to the woman on the other side of my call who had no idea what ASUS, a transformer, nor a wall adapter was, put me on hold so she could ask somebody what I was talking about. So being bored I had taken the taken it apart and put it back together a few times and decided to try it again. Bam, it works. So I hang up knowing she would not have helped me anyway. I just pray it is fixed for good....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] allen175:
ok, had my transformer a few days now, no problems what so ever, except for the occasional black screen. I rooted it 2 days ago and it was all good, unplugged it from the charger 7 hours ago and now it won't charge through the wall charger!!

What is going on!!?? i have it plgged into my computer and asus sync recognises it and i can move files back and forth, going to leave it plugged in now and see if it will pick up a tiny charge from the computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
thats the sleep of death problem. Its been discussed in many threads here, which firmware are you running?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] b1ackplague:
My TF was working fine from the minute I received it; I rooted it just before going to bed and charged it to a full 100% overnight friday night after I put it through its paces during the day. Thursday morning I installed Prime's ROM and, after setting things up, decided to charge it although it was at 80%+ but it wouldn't charge (same issue as everyone else on here).

So I unplugged the charger from the socket and my TF and played some games for about 30-40 minutes and plugged it back into the wall charger and it worked fine.

I'm not sure what, if anything, I did to make it work. All I can suggest is to unplug the power brick and let it sit for a little while then try again.

I have been dealing with slow charging for about 2 weeks now. My charger is not the model with the known fault, but it seems to be charging as if it were plugged into a USB port (ie. 5V instead of 12V). I spoke to Asus last week and they are sending me a replacement for the plug part of the power supply. I have doubts that it will do anything to solve the issue, but the guy was insistent that the plug was the cause. What's annoying is that it has been more than a week since they sent it and I still have not received. Hopefully any day now.
