[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
What ever you read that said you couldnt because of carrier lock is complete bollocks.

I too have a Tmobile UK Tab and Ive been flashing custom roms since 30 mins of getting it home and upgraded to gingerbread first day there was a custom rom for it.

Just go here and please ffs READ the guide, If you don't you will mess something up or lose all your data etc and then come crying and get flamed for not reading in first place ;)

Also, Gingerbread is only available in Italy, it is not available in UK, when it is it will be announced on the Samsung UK website, until then its not available at all in UK, end of.

PS. Remember to click thanks ;)

Hi,

I am not interested in installing a custom rom, so if it is not yet available in the UK, I will wait.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] boazem:
I'm a noobie, by saying odin do you mean to re-install the rom? or re install the market via odin?

how can I found a market apk file ?

I have exactly the same problem. Market works fine for a time and then i only get unsucsessfull download please try again. I also first flashed the vibrant 3g rom on it. Marked works again when i odin it back to stock (KD1) But for me the problem came back instantly with when i flashed the lockscreen for KD1. But if i have a apk file on my sdcard i can install it without any problems
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
When I first flashed KD1 I had the same problem. I couldn't download apps from the Market.

What I did was

1) Went to Market app tapped menu, tapped my apps. I was trying to "sync" with Market this way.

2) I had backups of my apps in my Titanium Backup app. In Titanium Backup I went to market doctor to "sync" that way.

3) I also have the AppBrain app. I logged in there and "synced" my apps that way too.

I did all three things at the same time and I'm sorry to say I can't remember what actually worked.

But I am now able to use/download from the Market without any problems.

I'm a Noob so please forgive my lack of technical advise.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] boazem:
Update: Market start working again

Today i just trun on my phone and poof market start download again.

days ego i try a lots of reboots and reset's via recovery mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:

Please would people stop calling it a vibrant 4g. Just because it looks like one doesn't mean it is one. It is almost completely different with different memory all over including different partitions and everything. It is a Galaxy S 4g. The model number of the vibrant is SGH-T959 just because this is T959V, doesn't mean it is a vibrant. Vibrant 4g is confusing as I believe that there is a rom for the original vibrant that has a 4g modem. It is confusing.

How would you go about formatting it on the EVO. Settings>card>erase SD card?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawbuck73:
Use RA recovery. You will see partition SD card. You have 3 choices. Swap-set to 0, ext-2-set to 1 gig and fat 32 for the rest. You have a big card so 1 gig ext-2 is good for apps to SD. Just make sure you backup what you want to save first.

is it a genuine Sandisk? there are a LOT of Chinese fakes on eBay, some barely work, while others don't work at all...

use any of the methods described in the other posts to format it, you can use either the phone or your computer.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latingonzo86:
Thanks guys I formatted it thru my settings and then did a partition thru Amon Ra thing seen to be going ok. SO FAR. I hit the thanks buttons tomorrow when I get to a computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |Jason8|:
This is probably the case. A lot of flash-memory based devices on eBay have 128mb of usable memory and the controller continually overwrites it as it writes to anything above the 128mb ceiling. So... your ROMs would be bad, your pictures would disappear, everything would be broken after the first 512mb is full. Keep in mind that the file table would be in the first part of the drive so all of your files would actually appear to be on there.

Here's a good story with an example: http://technogra.ph/2011/05/05/man-...-drive-disguised-as-fake-samsungs-hard-drive/
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latingonzo86:
Your right Jason. I formatted this thing til I was blue in the face and still no dice. Yup I got burned. Teaches me to not buy from the damn Chinese anymore.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdaman85:
I paid £430 for a Samsung Galaxy S II locked to Three from CEX,

I then took the phone to a mobile shop to unlock it, they charged me £20 and did their job, it was unlocked but I noticed when turning on the device there was a Yellow triangle exclamation mark in the centre.

Did they do the unlock properly?

I don't think they have, that yellow triangle is always there when starting up the device but the phone seems to be working fine. I also noticed that they rooted the phone as there is a superuser application in the app drawer.

Is there anyway of getting rid of that triangle without loosing the unlock?

Hope someone can help me out, thank you. :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spybreak:
It looks like you paid 20 quid for the free unlock and the guys didn't even do it properly. A restore should fix the icon thing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdaman85:
Well, if you mean restore as in resetting the device, I've tried that and it didn't remove the icon.

If you mean restore using Odin, I haven't done that, if I do restore it with Odin will I lose the unlock?

Thanks for helping :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeshr:
Yes, restore with a stock ROM using ODIN. You will lose the yellow triangle but still have your unlock.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HumanoidTalking:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilboa1:
I'd ask my money back. They didn't do an official unlock. They probably voided your warranty, at least partially (can be fixed with a jig but still)

Thanks for your help everyone, will try all your suggestions, thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gibsonus:
If you're not sure about using odin and flashing roms, don't worry. The triangle just means that the phone is rooted. It isn't doing any harm.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bertstare:
Hi all, my Focus was doing some weird things, including sporadic reception issues, so I went to an ATT warranty center and got it replaced. Unfortunately, this phone has the same issues AND more.

First of all, about half the time, if I go somewhere with NO reception, and then enter an area with reception, it won't find reception without turning the phone off and on, even if I toggle the data network in the settings. This is especially annoying because my office has no reception in the cafeteria/main entrance, yet my cubicle does. My old phone did not do this.

Second, on my first Focus, I picked a SMS sound on day one, after a few months, I changed it to something else. about 15% of the time, it would play the original sound, then immediately play the second one... Well this phone is doing the SAME thing, but I've only used one SMS tone. I find this especially puzzling.

Third, this phone occasionally won't flip from horizontal to vertical and vice versa. It seems like whatever mechanism tells the phone the way it's oriented is broken.

Fourth, yesterday, my phone went from a 100% charge to 0% and a warning that it was critically low. I took the battery out multiple times, and when it was plugged it, it would show that it was charging, but then not gain anywhere on the status meter. After pulling the battery for like the 10th time, it came up as 100%.

Has anyone else experienced any bugs like this?

This will be the 4th time I've gone into the ATT warranty center... I am the type who is always rational and polite, but this is getting annoying. I hope ATT gives me a credit or something. I wish I could get a NEW phone and not a warranty replacement refurb that is clearly not working like it should.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmcgraw:
I've never experienced anything like what you're talking about. As far as orientation not switching, it does happen if say I take a picture in landscape mode, then MMS the picture to someone and turn the phone upright as I enter the message.

Hi, I don't have a focus but have noticed this on my HTC Mozart so am wondering if it could be a software bug?

I've noticed that with mine (HTC Arrive) it plays the 10th ringtone by default whenever the phone is facing up or flipped over. But when it's flipped over and the first ringtone plays then you flip it over, the screen lights up and then the second ringtone plays (I think its ringtone 5). Weird...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bertstare:
Well, the warranty center swapped out my Focus. I told them it had "a reception issue," but did not explain what it was, and then told about how the phone screen was not rotating depending on how it was oriented. Guy went into the back, presumably to check out the issue, and he came back saying that he confirmed it was not rotating properly, so he gave me a new one. He didn't even care to hear about the other issues. I've been into the warranty store multiple times in the last two weeks, and every time they've said that the Focus is not typically a phone that comes in with issues... so we'll see what happens.

Of note, the guy who gave me a new phone did not set it up properly, so data was not working. I had to call customer service to get my IMEI number updated. I politely explained how much of a hassle this has been and was given a $25 credit on my account.

I'm back at my cubicle at work, so I've gone through the basement with no reception, and it was able to find the network on its own when I got out of the dead zone... hopefully that means this phone is working properly.

However, I am moving to a new house in mid June, and I am 99% sure the house is in a dead spot... urg. If it's as bad as I figure it will be, I guess I'll see if AT&T will give me a free microcell AND free service for it; otherwise, I'll have to switch to Verizon.

Thanks for weighing in everyone. It seems like there is some sort of ringer issue because others are reporting it too.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyskmaster:
I have the reception issue too, have to reboot the phone to fix it however, I haven't experienced any of your other issues (samsung focus here)

Hi all,

Pretty simple request here. I'm looking for a stylus pen that I can use with my Transformer. That is, a pen, with a rubber - or whatever it is - bit at the top, so that I can flip the pen around and tap away.

Reason is, 99% of the time, I have one or more pens in my pocket for college, so I'd like to have the option to use them as styli(?) as well.

Sounds simple, but I haven't had much luck in finding one. Main thing here is price. I want them to be cheap enough that I could order a few and loose one without caring too much. (~$3-4 each)

Take a look around the site though, that have some 2 in 1 types thats double as an actual pen, and smaller ones that can hang from the headphone jack.
