[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
I upgraded my stock rom to 2.3.6 and since then it has started this rebooting as mentioned. I found after removing my SD card (Lexar 32GB) it has not rebooted since (about 2 weeks now).

Another post mentions turning off "push" and "auto update" in the software update menu. i never had auto update on but i did have push.....i havnt tried it as yet, but cant hurt. (it actually makes sens to be something like this that is the cause)

Also someone else has mentioned typing this into their phone: *2767*3855#

which of course completely resets it. If it works, i dont care about starting again (or restoring) as that's the reason i got he galaxy s 2....it memory can be expanded.....

Ill test the above reset code and see how it goes i guess....

##Ok have done the above and full re-formatted my phone using the sequence provided (please be aware that if u type the above there is no warning it simple starts the reformat process)....and i have since re-inserted my SD card and last night a reboot occurred........

Granted i didnt re-format the card which is what i have just done but to me it looks like it has not worked......next step will be to email Samsung on it....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
And have had another 3 reboots this afternoon........Have written to samsung but im not holding my breath.......maybe they are just waiting for ICS to be finalized before even looking at anything else......

Heres to being woken at 3am due to the stupid Optus reboot sounds rrrrrrr
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eveadams:
No Reboots here. Using both original battery and extended battery with external sd card. On stock rom I9100-M model.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isostars:
I just have reboots when i turn wiifi on no problem at all with the sd card im pretty sure the reboots have to do with wifi so samsung should take a look at wifi.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackPantherCFU:
I have the same problem.

SGS2 with 2.3.5 - BOKK1

I have try:

- with & without case

- with & without wifi

- with & without 3G

- with & without original battery

- with & without card

- just placed on the table without any movement

Before reboot my the log file has register the following

error logsys/class/backlight/pwm-backlight/brightness

with different values.

Anyone with solution ???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
To be honest i think its an issue with both Wifi plus Sd card......cause removing either of these from the situation seems to fix the issue for some people.

I sent the error logs to myself (using log collector) and only found one error in it:

No longer want com.sec.android.widgetapp.buddiesnow (pid 3744): hidden #26 01-05 14:16:30.610 W/ResourceType( 2707): Failure getting entry for 0x7f02000f (t=1 e=15) in package 0 (error -75) 01-05 14:16:30.615 I/ActivityThread( 4030)

No idea what it means or if its relevant......

Also strangely ive noticed after every reboot my icons in my menu seem to re-arrange. I had them all sorted in folder, but when it restarts they go out of the folder and the folders are gone....havnt noticed that before :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avossen:
Heating problem?

I noticed that the device is very hot when it reboots. So I wonder if this rebooting is triggered by some protecting mechanisme against overheating. I looked at which processes are running when it starts getting hot and the amount of power consumption of these processes. I closed down all the one's I do not need. The result is that I am now up for more then a day.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
Workaround

For all the people who are having issues with Wifi or SD card i have found a possible workaround. i have had this in place fro around 3 days now and not a single re-boot (touch wood).

Go to:

Settings --> Wireless and Network --> Wi-Fi settings --> Press 'Menu' button on phone --> select "Advanced"

Set Wi-Fi sleep policy to "when screen turns off".

This setting switches wifi off after about 30 seconds (possibly longer havn't really times it) of the screen being off.

Now take note i have not tested this setting to see if wifi stays on if your downloading a large file etc. so if your downloading something (such as alpha 6) then u may want to keep the screen on to be on the safe side.

Please update if this setting also works for others......or if there is an unknown issue with changing this setting that i dont know about....

thanks,

Joe
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isostars:
Nice suggestion i will give it a try and will update in a couple of days if i still have reboots, at the moment i changed this setting and im running allready 1 day without any reboot, i thing this could fix our problem. Thanks Joe!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danielnadav:
Sorry to say jamen08 - it did not work for me.. Just had a reboot about 24 hour after changing the wifi settings :-(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
Please Note i have also done a full reset of my mobile after upgrading by entering the following:

*2767*3855#

##This does not give you an "ok" option. Once typed in it commences with the factory reset.

Also i have had 1 reboot and it was after updating some apps (there were like 5 so I didnt take notice of what they were)....I am using AVG antivirus (pro) which is the only thing that would really run all the time.....(which definitely updated)

Im starting to wonder if its an app thing or a software thing.....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boycebj:
My response from Samsung

I sent an email off to Samsung and this is what they sent back.

'Thank you for your feed back. If you are an Optus customer you will experience issues with the Firmware Upgrade 2.3.6 we are currently working with Optus to fix these issues and do not have a OTA (over the air) release date as of yet. Samsung Kies will notify youof any further Upgrades.'

Im with Virgin which uses Optus network so assume they have the same issue also.

Hopefully he fix will come shortly. Starting to get reall annoying having to switch wifi on and off all the time.

Hope it'll help for some cases.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamen08:
What Crap....i emailed them last week and they said "it must be a faulty device or memory card, take it back for repair"

Why cant samsung just tell their support about the "known" issue and the support people to say its being looked into....i even gave the guy the links to this thread and he still gave me that crap answer......

lucky im not stupid enough to take it back in and waste time resetting the phone AGAIN.....rrrrrrr.......soooo annoying
[Continuum General] shanerbaner82:
So I got my continuum 3 weeks ago, first Droid phone. Decided to root, took me about 5 hours finally figured it out using SuperOneClick.

Wanted to check out some custom ROM's so I plugged my USB cable in and transfered the .zip file to my sd card and booted into cwr and tried to install the .zip from the sd card and rebooted, nothing was different or had changed. Did that a few times and realized that I hadn't wiped user data or cache or delvik so I did that all in the cwr and installed to .zip rom and rebooted.

This time when I rebooted a few things were different. All of my apps were in alphabetical order, the home screen was back to stock except for my background was one I had just installed. My contacts were gone (thank God I backed them up).

So I rebooted again.... hung at Samsung logo....

I had also put the Peanut Butter Jelly time kernal on my sd card out of luck I installed that and rebooted. This time everything was the same as my previous horror boot except all of my apps that were set to run on boot fc'ed and all of the other apps that I have are just icons. None of them open or they do and fc. Market will not open. My phone is a phone and a camera and the browser works.

I am very new to droid but learn quickly. I cannot post on the continuum dev threads because I am a noob. Hopefully one of the continuum devs will see this and know what to do to help.

Thanks a ton, I do not mind donating for help.
[Continuum General] trailblazer101:
You said that you wiped user data?

That would remove all of your data, including your applications...

Your apps are toast, but your phone is not...

If you made a backup before you flashed (which you are supposed to xP) , then you can easily restore your apps then...

But if you didn't, then go back into recovery and do a full wipe... When you boot up, you should be back to the original state..

If not, then i am going to have to have you flash one of our rom zips... But i really dont think it'll come to that xP
[Continuum General] shanerbaner82:
Recovery

I made a backup and when I try to load it it says checking for md5 sums then gives me an error that it can't mount (unmount) the "/system".

So if I go back to recovery and wipe everything and reboot that should return me back to stock??

I don't care about the apps I dled I can always get those back but I can't even open market it fc everytime, no way to re-dl it.
[Continuum General] ntien:
1. what rom have you/are trying to install?

2. how are you installing the rom? you can't just go into cwr and click "apply sdcard:update.zip". you have to go to "install zip from sdcard", then go to "choose zip from sdcard", and then find the rom you put on your sdcard and select it. make sure you're flashing the rom file, not the cwr file because they are both named "update.zip". to make sure you're flashing the right file i would put cwr in the root of your sdcard and the rom file in some random folder.

3. did you install voodoo or novoodoo? and if you correctly installed either, the boot up video should be messed up when you turn on your phone. did you make sure the peanutbutta jelly time kernel was exclusively for the continuum, and you didn't accidently flash a kernel for some other phone?

4. if you truly did install the correct peanutbutta jelly time kernel, i would recommend flashing back to the original kernel (let me know if you need it). if you installed voodoo, you'll need to put a blank file in /sdcard/voodoo/ named "disable-lagfix"
[Continuum General] shanerbaner82:
1. I was trying to install the super clean

2. I was trying to install from zip on sd card then selecting the sc_cont.zip I believe it is called

3. I had both voodoo and no voodoo, with no voodoo I had no bootani's with voodoo it was the factory bootani but distorted.

4. I just tried the original kernal and system from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=967165 and now my phone's bootani is stock stock but after the verizon screen my phone turns off.

So now my phone is bricked again. I tried going back to pbj (peanut butta jelly) voodoo kernal and the same distorted bootani comes up then the phone turns off. I can get into crm but that appears to be all I can do.

Is there a different place to get the stock kernal or is the link I posted the right one.

I would really like my phone back to stock and root again. But first things first... get it to boot to a phone.

Forgot something, when I attempt to boot into crm the lady comes on and says "Convert system partition, system is not available" Then it sits and the weird lines from voodoo and the bootani from voodoo. If i could get into "phone" I could create the file you are saying but the phone turns off after that. Back to boot like a loop.

Thank you so much to trail blazer

Basically I had the wrong update.zip installed and couldnt even mount the usb to cpu to do anything about it. Luckily i had a msd to sd adapter and was able to switch out my update.zip to the correct cwm. Thank you so much blazer and imnuts!!! you guys are my heroes.

How to make it start?

i have already installed AVISynth and FFDShow .

But when i click on XYZ2MP4.CMD shortcut created on Desktop it shows black screen with written-" cannot locate AVISynth.If not already installed get at ******.

Else reinstall to default location"

What it means? What m i doing wrong?
[Xoom General] e.mote:
The script checks for the location of the AVISynth uninstall.exe in C:\Program Files\AVISynth\ for 32-bit systems, or C:\Program Files (x86)\AVISynth\ for 64-bit systems. It reads the env variable to determine the location of the Program Files folder.

Navigate to this location and see if the Uninstall.exe file exists. If you run a non-English version of Windows, the pathnames may be different (although it should've been accounted for).
[Xoom General] ewcrider:
I had the same issue as techpal above.

I think there is a problem in where it searches for AVIsynth. The default installation folder is "AviSynth 2.5" in the program files folder. The XYZ2MP4.cmd file seems to search for "AVISynth" in the program files folder. I edited the cmd to look for "AVISynth 2.5" and it worked after that.

Here's the new line (line 102 in the original):
[Xoom General] e.mote:
Thanks for the correction. Script is updated.
[Xoom General] techpal:
Ya ewcrider is right.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Yea, I just changed the folder name to just "AviSynth".

I prefer GUI because I sure as hell dont have a deep knowledge of audio/video codecs/filters.

uh I have a problem after I made my video into a .mkv. The script gives me a error about the audio stream. I would upload a sample but I can't right now because of my extremely slow upload speed.

Make sure AC3/DTS/ACC support is enabled in the FFDShow Audio Decoder Option. By default they may be turned off. The script relies on DirectShow filter support to convert any audio. Restart your system to make sure.

To find out if your system supports AC3/DTS, try the sample here on the Windows Media Player (not VLC or a player with built-in codecs).

http://www.kellyindustries.com/sounds.html

Try renaming your filename to Test.mkv, and see if the filename is a problem.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
I replicated your problem. You can't just rename "AVISynth 2.5" to "AVISynth", because the program was installed to the first path, not the second. Change it back to "AVISynth 2.5", and grab the 0.1.1 updated script.
[Xoom General] techpal:
Still i cant start. When i click on .CMD file on desktop black screen comes for a fraction of second and then goes awayand then nothing happens.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
You don't click on the CMD script. You need to drag-drop a movie file or folder onto it. Without input (or a valid input), the script simply closes.
[Xoom General] techpal:
Ok now i made it to start by dragging files. But it gives error about cant find Audio Stream.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
YES thank you! I love you for this because I can't get handbrake to work for some reason. Finally I have a way to quickly get my 720p files working on my xoom

I had to actually reinstall it to get the script to work because renaming it back didn't work for me.

Edit: Techpal reinstall AvySynth if you renamed it because that did it for me
[Xoom General] e.mote:
Thanks for the positive report. What type/size of videos are you converting, and how long do they take to convert on your system? The script should report the time lapsed per file processed. I like to get feedback on the execution speed for various operations.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
I X'd out of the window but my orginal file is the same one that is posted above

it took 5-6 minutes(guesstimate?), i converted the same file I posted earlier above using default settings. I'm converting the same file again trying to get slightly better video quality(19 instead of 21)

what settings do I need for the BEST quality for xoom 3.1? Should I keep it high and not main/baseline?

Test 1: 4:19 with everything default except for 19 instead of 21

Test 2: 6:11 ^^ just the next episode from the first file
[Xoom General] techpal:
Installed again but stlll shows error that cant find audio stream, could not parse WAV file.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
The high/main/baseline is only if the video is recoded, which yours wasn't. On Recode=AUTO, it doesn't recode the video for 720p H.264, or 1080p baseline profile. Only the audio is recoded to stereo AAC (from your video's stereo AC3).

The best quality is when you don't have to recode the video. Only recode the video (Recode=YES) if it can't be played smoothly on the Xoom. Video recoding takes substantially longer.

Read the FAQ for further tips on recoding. Stick with High or Main. Use Baseline as a last resort. These don't affect quality. Baseline is more playable, but has larger file size.

oh ok thanks

I've tried to find out if it's possible to flash android 2.3.3 without pc. I haven't found much... So I'm asking here if it's possible.

I don't have enough time to upgrade it via pc, so please if you know how to or know where to find info, please post here.

unless darkys 9.5 is gingerbread based you will not be able to do it without kies / odin

you need the 2.3.3 bootloaders and you cannot flash these in recovery.

it will take 30 mins max on a pc, so im sure you can find that time

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Postmonkeh:
As per title. I rooted my dhd a couple of weeks ago and installed cyanogenmod. It's great, although there were a few things I missed about sense. The camera app, the people widget, the high quality profile pictures pulled from facebook for my contacts, and the phone app. But cyanogen pulled a surprise on me by allowing me to move my status bar to the bottom. The cover I have for my phone has a strip that runs along the top of my screen that makes it hard to grab the status bar, so having it on the bottom is great. But the one thing I miss most from sense is being able to zoom mobile web pages. I downloaded and flashed honey sense last night, and while the new lock screen is lovely, all I want is a rom that lets me zoom mobile websites, and move my status bar to the bottom. Any ideas?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JagDave:
Any of the Sense ROMs should alow you to zoom and automatically resize web pages.

As for the Notifications bar, you can use Menu -> Notifications
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Postmonkeh:
I know I can click menu/notifications but that doesn't work unless I'm on a homescreen. All the sense roms I've tried have allowed me to zoom, what I was looking for is something that has sense so I can have the zoom functionality on mobile web pages, but has the option to move the status bar to the bottom like cyanogen.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JagDave:
None that I know of.

One of the earlier CoreDroid ROMs did have 360 roatable Rosie on all screens, including Home (5.3 I think).

But I have not come across any that let you to move the notifiaction bar, sorry.

Hi,

I am on 2.1jh7 and wondering if i should go ahead with a lagfix or just with an app to change the setcpu. Does the oclf do some other fixes too. Btw, im rooted and unlocked.

Another one, if its better to oclf should i backup the rom and then do oclf? Excuse me for noob queries.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Oclf is old old old, the only thing it's good for is to falsely inflate benchmark scores.

So a setcpu app should do fine until the time i upgrade?

Any recomendations? Appreciate your help.

Unless the kernel supports it the set cpu app won't do anything either. You have very little options while on stock.
