Would like to re-iterate this.

Just got a new device, (SGS2), it also has an internal and an external SD.

But the difference here is that the SGS2 always mounts the internal as /sdcard

Really don't like the fragmentation.

I still can't believe the ASUS sometimes mounts internal as /sdcard and sometimes external as /sdcard

It's just ****ing messy.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avellanita:
Hi all, sorry for this new post in such a short time but I have a question...

I got my phone from eBay, and the guy who sold it to me got it straight from Samsung. This means the phone is unlocked from factory and is not linked to mobile company, like 3, Vodaphone or O2.

The problem comes when I use "Check Fus Downloader" to find firmware for my phone, and only see versions for 3, Vodaphone and O2... Does this mean there is no firmware updates for phones not linked to any company like mine?

Or... would any of the other versions (O2, Vodaphone...) work in my phone?

Thanks a lot again :)

I have a Nexus 1 right now and love the phone, however I'm feeling a bit bored at the moment. I have CyanogenMod on it right now and although i'm loving the specs and performance, I really want a larger screen.

I also have an upgrade. I'm currently thinking of just getting something cheap at Radio Shack like the Inspire and holding onto that for a while, at least a few weeks, to try it out.

Has anyone else done this? Now i know that the Galaxy S 2 should be coming out over here soon and that's ultimately what I'm waiting for, however I just want a breath of fresh air.

Does anyone here do this? And if so, what are your experiences?

[EVO 4G General] sgtnoodle:
Just in case someone finds this useful. I spent several hours searching and couldn't find this, so I had to figure it out myself!

For fun I bought a broken Evo 4g on Craigslist. It's USB port was violently ripped off, taking with it at least one layer of PCB substrate. Using a multimeter, I was able to find some new places to solder to. I attached some 30AWG wire and epoxied on a new port, and the phone is good to go!

The D+/D- goes to what appears to be a dual package 4 ohm resistor. I messed up a couple times trying to solder it and one of the resistors stopped working, so I ended up just removing the resistors and soldering to the pads on the other side. The resistors aren't important, and USB works just fine.
[EVO 4G General] RileyGrant:
Damn bro, slightly impressive, my hardware skills are beyond lacking.
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
This is why you need a temperature-controlled soldering iron, SMT components are very sensitive to heat since they don't have leads to dissipate any of it.

I'm not sure what those resistors were there for, but I wonder if you could pull some numbers off and cross them to someone from DigiKey. Given how manufacturers pinch every penny, I can't see them throwing on cost if it's unnecessary.

But then again, if it works, I guess that's good enough too haha.

I've given serious thought to starting a small business buying and repairing phones, seeing how easily most consumers give up on them when even the simplest repairs are needed.
[EVO 4G General] sgtnoodle:
Oh don't worry, I had a temperature controlled iron. The issue was that I had a cup of coffee an hour before attempting to solder. :-)

We are talking about a 1mm square component, so no part number. A reference USB circuit design has 20-30 ohm resistors in series with the D+ and D- lines before they run into the USB transceiver (built into the snapdragon CPU), so I'm not sure why there were these 4 ohm diddles. Maybe they were the cheapest. The phone probably won't survive a lightning strike now, or the USB won't work if there are sunspots. USB is pretty robust.

If you have prior knowledge of the circuits, then I can see an exotic repair business being successful. Not having access to the design, though, I spent way more time than it was worth fixing the USB port. :-P It was more of a fun after-work activity. The previous owner also abused it rather heavily, so even though I got it functioning again I would feel bad trying to resell it for much more than what I paid for it!

plug the cable into your device and then into your tv it will work automatically. there is really nothing to be done on your end except making sure your tv is on the right input and you are using the correct cable.

I would suggest not taking a gamble with an adapter, which can always introduce extra problems, when you can get a complete 3' cable for less:

There are a bunch of other lengths and options on MonoPrice, as well, and whichever way you go you'll be better off than overpaying in a physical store.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KTM690:
I have read in previous posts that connecting directly to pins 27 & 28 wont give you any audio out. Apparantly you have to put a resister between other pins to tell the Tab to output audio. This is what I'm not sure about. I have just ordered some plugs to do some testing from kineteka.com.

You wait. If you need any off market apps in the interim, you use the Sideload wonder machine or root.

All credit to the OP of this thread
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
He didn't say he was missing the unknown sources option. He said the AT&T Update option. I think he is just looking in the wrong place because it us not under About phone, it has it's own sub category, so maybe he just over looked it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kevin.Chung:
Thanks you for help. But i can't found this option on any category. On HTC website they said this option is under About Phone --> "Users can proactively check for this update by going to Home>Menu>Settings> AT&T Software Update> HTC Wi-Fi software update" This is link from HTC website: htc.com/us/support/inspire-att/downloads/ Are this option available on your phone? If it on other sub category, pls tell me the category name.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
First of all, you said you factory reset your phone. What state was it in before you did this? Was it stock? Rooted? Running a different rom? Was there an issue you were having that inclined you to factory reset?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kevin.Chung:
The phone is original, non root or make any thing change on ROM. I'm only install some game and change some settings under Setting menu. I'm do factory reset to restore these setting to Factory Setting + remove all game for install new update over OTA. After reset i can't found this option :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
On my stock phone the AT&T Software Update option is right above About Phone at the bottom of the main Settings menu.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
I was wondering about that. It's been awhile since I had a stock phone.

On the near stock gingerbread ROM I'm running, its the first option you see *after you choose* 'about phone,' so its a sub item of it.

In the op's case, then, it should be identical to yours, unless the OTA you received changed its location for some reason.

OP, if you don't see it on the list that appears after you choose 'about phone' and its not the next item listed after 'about phone,' I honestly don't know what to tell you.

I don't understand why it would disappear from your phone. A factory reset, by function, doesn't do anything to system-wide settings menu options that I'm aware of, all it does is remove data, your personal info, apps, etc. Essentially putting it back the way it was when you first took it out of the box. Out of the box, that menu item can be found, so I don't know.

Maybe somebody else will stop in who has the answer. I'm stumped. Especially since you've never even rooted the phone -- the only "normal" way something like that could get messed with. ;)

I'll keep my eye out for an answer for you, but hopefully you'll get it solved soon.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dayresnky1:
I had the same thing happen to me. Factory reset, then the update was gone.

I called ATT on Saturday and asked them to push the update out to me again. They agreed to do that, but I am waiting on it to update. They said it might take 2-3 days.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Now this raises the question in my mind if we all might be suffering from a little bit of misunderstanding as to what the OP's issue is.

If what you described as happening to you is in fact what is actually happening to OP, then that's an easy fix.

From what I remember, the phone still has an option to check for software updates, even if there aren't any available. But I could be wrong. It's been known to happen occasionally. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kevin.Chung:
Before Factory Reset i had same as you, but now it was gone. :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kevin.Chung:
But now i'm in MACAU so can't get AT&T support. Are they solve this problem for you up to now?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Kevin.Chung:
Are gingerbread ROM is Android 2.3? What languages has on this ROM? Is it have Chinese language? Can i upgrade to this ROM by myself? Can you guide me for this? :confused:

I did not install any updates through OTA so it is impossible to change location.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
yes, Gingerbread is 2.3, but until an official ATT update comes out, you'll have to flash one like mine, but in order to to that your phone needs to be rooted, first.

The name of the ROM I use is "Inspired Ace" by user gtgx65x, in the dev section.

I don't see Chinese under my language options, but maybe you could find some way of getting it on there. I don't know, I never needed/tried to change to another language.

For your current situation, maybe try doing another factory reset, again. Sometimes doing something like that over ends up fixing the problem. May work, it may not. Just something to try.

So disappointment because not have Chinese. I'm have some issue need your help:

1. Can we add another language to the ROM before flash? Can you post a screen shot of the option under both Setting & About Phone menu on your phone?

2. After flash this ROM, the Model under About Phone will display Inspire 4G or Desire HD because It's based on the latest official HTC Sense 2.1 Gingerbread release for the Desire HD.

3. Can we root the phone and only repair the Setting menu?

I'm newbie so can you tell me detail how to root and flash the ROM? (from start --> final)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
Yes, that's the ROM I'm running. I don't know if you can add Chinese support or not, you'll have to do some research on that question.

I can't post screenshots right now, but I will tell you that I have software update on my menu, as I described previously. You won't be able to use it if you are rooted, BUT, you won't need to use it, because all of those updates are available here, instead.

Before you do anything, you need to read this guide...

[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
The rooting process itself will unlock you. :)

Doesn't matter what ROM you choose after. As long as you root, you'll be unlocked, and able to flash any ROM + any updates you can't get now because of your current problem.

It will be worth it. Just take your time, and STUDY the rooting instructions before you actually do it, and when you are ready, follow the instructions EXACTLY, and you won't have any problems.

It looks complicated at first, but it just takes patience and a little undivided attention while you're doing it.

I have read a lot about Motorola. In India people are just neglecting them. Motorlola has not settled their money in india and the dealers are disgracing them. What they say is

"THE PRODUCT IS GOOD BUT THE COMPANY IS WORSE"

They just think that postponing updates will make moto owners buy other handsets...There are a lot other than motorola.

What is the use of locking the bootloader??? Does anyone know??

GREAT JOKE (NEWS) :

Moto blaming android market for performance issues:D:p:p:p:p:confused:

FROM GSMARENA :

Ever wondered why your Andriod smartphone isn't working as well as it should be? Well, Motorola's CEO, Dr. Sanjay Jha, thinks it's because of the open Android Market.

He says that because the Android Market is open, anyone can upload almost any type of applications. Users then download these applications that may have the potential of bringing down the performance or battery life of their devices. He also said that 70% of the phones that are returned are because of issues caused by applications.

Jha claims that the solution lies in MOTOBLUR, Motorola's proprietary software layer that runs on top of their Android phones. Motorola is using BLUR to collect data on the applications that people use on their phones and the way they affect the performance of their devices. Thanks to this information, they will soon be able to issue warnings if an applications, say, is going to have a dramatic effect on the phone's battery life.

Now all that is fine but we must say we aren't particularly big fans of MOTOBLUR. And for all we know BLUR itself could be one of the reason for many of the performance issues. Perhaps Motorola should fine tune their own application before passing the blame around.

I think giving a petition to unlock the bootloader is of waste.....Giving a try is not going to harm us
