[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rabbitmumu:
I dont know anything about the exchange and switching from iphone i found this battery vs lock screen very annoying.

What i do (unless someone has better suggestion that doesnt involve in rooting) , is that i install this app called "no lock".. so i set it as no lock when i am at home which means i only need to press the home button instead of entering pw. The downside is when i go out, i need to remember to lock it!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmunjal:
This looks like it requires rooting. I solved the problem by using Touchdown so now I have separate timers again.

Hi all!

I need to backup my downloaded data under /android/data/ folder. But when i open explorer on my PC, i cant see anything under that folder, while i can see those data using root explorer.

Any suggestion?

Thanks!

BTW: i cant see any picture under folder screenshot ER too!

[HTC Inspire 4G] shawn1224:
I'm rooted running Leedroid and a very odd occurrence happened tonight. The volume level started decreasing by itself until it hit vibrate and then the phone just became unresponsive. I pulled the battery and now no matter what I do the phone won't power back on again. if I press power or hold volume down and power, it vibrates 5 times and shows a solid green light, still doesn't turn on. Even if I hook up the USB cable same thing, only exception is that it immediately starts vibrating 5 times without pressing any buttons. I also left it on the charger for a while and swapped out batteries and nothing changes. Has anyone experienced this same issue?. I'm thinking maybe it's a hardware error and possibly bricked.

UPDATE ... I took the SD card out and let it sit for about 30 mins and then it powered up fine. This is very odd indeed. I don't know what could have been the problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
My wife had this happen to hers after she shut down the phone and it would not boot back up properly. Trying to boot would either give five vibrates and green led or three vibrates and a red led iirc depending on if I tried a normal boot or hboot. Was on irc with attn1 trying a number of different things, as I was able to get adb to recognize the phone when booting into recovery even through the screen was blank, with no success, and finally just had at&t send a replacement.

I did try swapping another sd card but didn't try booting with no card installed so I don't know if that would have helped in my case though I am certainly curious now after reading your post. Wish I could get the phone back to test now. lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] jznomoney:
Any solution to this? My phone is stuck like this now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
I had one go this route too. I think its a corrupt boot partition (or some other critical partition in the built-in flash ROM). I could not get it to boot to anything usable at all. I ended up filing a warranty claim and got a new one. Hopefully your's is still covered, or you have insurance, otherwise, your best bet is send it back to HTC for repair. They are actually pretty reasonable from what I hear, but you'll be without a phone for awhile.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jznomoney:
I did a rma straight from HTC since I didn't have the insurance from at&t on it. They said it was the motherboard that died and replaced it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Zesty01:
it sounds like something is going on with you data partition and sd card format. i recomend booting in to clockwork mod recovery and wiping all data and cache partitions as well as dalvik and then re-installing the ROM of your choice. id also recomend backing up your SD card and reformatting that as well, and if none of that works. i think its time to try a new rom
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
I have this issue!!!! The EXACT same thing happened to me! I can't resolve it .. if i turn it on like normal, it flashes orange and vibrates 3 times. If i hold vol + down and turn it on, solid green and vibrates 5 times/ black screen. Help!
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Try and take out the SD card for 30 min
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
I tried that and it did not work. I tried both the sim and sd card. I still need help. This is the only post on the internet I found that reproduced the issue -- and if this EXACT issue I have is happening to someone else, there has to be a way to fix it.

If my volume+up button worked, I could boot it to recovery. I need a way to do this without the use of the volume+up.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
How much did they charge you?

And if anyone fixes my issue, I will donate $50 if you find me a resolution that works for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Try to run the ruu .exe file from your computer
[HTC Inspire 4G] jznomoney:
HTC didn't charge me anything since it was a hardware failure. Your inspire will still be under warrenty since it hasn't been a year yet. Just call htc support and they will create the rma. You will just have to pay shipping to them. It took about 10 days round trip.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
an update .. i can run droid explorer with it turned off, but plugged in usb and it detects it. I tried rebooting/rebooting to recovery via droid mgr but same thing happens. But it's a good sign pc detects it .. anything I can do?

I really need this fixed. If you can find a resolution, I'll donate $50
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Ok thats good news that it can read it. Connect it to the computer and run that file.

Hmm, I don't think i can execute files with droidexplorer, can you ? Or run it with windows?
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Run it with windows
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
Error 170 - usb not connected. But it shows up in droid explorer and "adb devices" check! Perhaps to use RUU you have to be at least in recovery menu or something .. I feel like this should work, though. Any thoughts?
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Hmm its working with adb?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
Yes -- works with adb
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Did you try and reboot into recovery or bootloader with it?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chronei:
yep tried both. That's where i thought my initial breakthrough was. I get the same 3 vibrate, flashing orange led, black screen when I do that. It also makes it not be detectable by usb anymore so have to take out battery + usb cable and put it back in for it to be detectable again by adb
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Hmm did the phone get any water damage ?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jznomoney:
It's the same exact issue I had. You are not going to be able to revive it. Just contact HTC.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
I have to agree with jznomoney. It's going to have to go back. I had the same issue. It seems partially alive which is deceiving, but I was unable to get anywhere with it at all.

I got mine from CostCo so it had a 90 day warranty. I took it back and they exchanged it for a new one, no questions asked. If you're out of your retailer's warranty, then HTC will still cover it for 1 year, but you'll be without a phone until they send it back.

[HTC Inspire 4G] kicker1:
I got the same issue.. but this happened just after my one click root :( anyone find a cure??
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
I think the consensus is that if you have two options: pull the battery for 30 minutes, then try to boot. If you get HBOOT or recovery, your good and may be able to fix it by reinstalling a good ROM and/or recovery; or, if step one doesn't work, your screwed and will have to send it back to HTC for repairs.

I had to send mine back.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kicker1:
:( sad news mate... I will see if powers on tomorrow. Do you know what can cause this issue or was just one of those days where its just boils down to faulty hardware?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
Just had this happen to me. It'll boot w/out the sd card but not with it. I wonder if it's an issue w/ the sd reader on these phones.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
It appears that my issue was from having my apps on an ext3 partition using S2E on CM7. Was anyone else using this combo when they had the failure?

Since I have stopped using the partition to install apps, my phone boots as it should where as after last nights incedent and me recovering the sd card, formatting then repartitioning it, it wouldn't boot w/sd installed. If I popped it out long enough to boot the phone, no apps were there or widgets.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kicker1:
Hi After letting it sit for a few days Bam I am able to power on the phone! How ever I am unable to get into HBOOT/Recovery :( when i press power + vol down button it just vibrates a few times then the amber led flashes from here I have to pull the battery out and wait sometimes it will switch on after 2 hrs sometimes after a Day..

I tried using an RUU rom to Flash but as its bout to boot into recovery the same vibrate and amber light :(.

So it seems that the HBOOT/recovery is totally messed up any way I can fix this??

Cheers

Nic
[HTC Inspire 4G] IronAssassin:
When Tx Redneck said that his phone booted without the sd card, i took out my sd card & sim card and booted the phone, when it came on i reinserted both and used rom manager to go into recovery. Rebooted without wiping anything and everything works fine.

Why rom are you using and are you using some form of A2SD?

The same Thing Happen to me yesterday....

I had the same problem over here BUT the solution in my case was take out the mini sd Card AND my SIM CARD ( Simple Mobile )

I had to wait about 30 mins, them the phone was VIBRATING LIKE A DILDO, and them Just booted NORMALLY.

Sorry for my bad 3ngl1sh, but my java is worzt !!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
I know what your problem is. I had the same thing happening. Your volume control is shorting out. It happens a fair bit on this phone. You need to pull the battery cover off and break the ribbon leading to the volume rocker. Your phone will start okay now. Install 4ext recovery from market. It will allow you to boot into recovery and use your home and menu buttons to select options on the screen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] asnofg4l:
Where is this ribbon leading to the volume rocker? I can't find one and I really need to use my phone asap

appreciate the help
[HTC Inspire 4G] RickEphraims:
If you pull the phone apart by undoing the tiny black screws located all around the phone, you will see a thin light brown ribbon right above the volume rocker. Just tear it away from the rocker and that should be done then.
[HTC Inspire 4G] FrameworkTraining:
I know it's resurrecting an old post, but my friend was getting the 5 buzz thing, and it boiled down to his volume rocker having physical damage from sand getting underneath it.

Seeing as it was already out of warranty, he decided to take the slim side cover off, and sever the ribbon (didn't need to take the whole phone apart). He said that he hated the volume rocker anyway :D

Disclaimer: Needless to say, do this at your own risk and as a last resort, as it will permanently damage your phone, affecting your warranty, reducing its resale value etc.

edit: he realised afterwards that he could probably have slipped the contacts out from under the volume control to try and clear the sand out, so maybe give that a go first!
[HTC Inspire 4G] honico:
re: Three quick vibrations, amber light flashes continuously...

This happened to my rooted unit, too. It had been turned off, without SIM or u-SD card. Needed to use the phone so stuck the cards in a booted it up.

Vibrations...amber flashing...panic, reboots (x3)--and mad reading of XDA posts! *yay*

Pulled cards and battery.

Let sit for 10 min.

Read some more posts.

Battery in, booted without cards. And booted just fine.

While powered up, mounted u-SD card. It was found, just fine.

Powered off, mounted SIM.

Powered on and continues to work normally.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Wardyboyo:
Edit.

This is a hardware problem and with me like the user above stated, it was to do with my volume buttons. I lost my actual buttons a while ago so just the metal was showing, from excessive use, my volume up button was completely flat, poked it with a compass a few times and now I boot every time.

I'm on the Desire HD, but I hope this helps.

:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] antny:
I ran into this problem today, my volume buttons had fallen off and everything thing. I didn't drop the phone or anything, definitely the most random thing to happen to me this year, but anyway, towards getting to the end of this thread i decided to try the whole disconnecting the ribbon thing but before I could try I saw this last post above mine and decided to try it. At first I used a tooth pick but it didn't work, so then I used one of my keys and it did the job. I don't know if it was because I used a metal object that made a difference or just a fluke but I'm just giving my testimonial to one possible solution.

Vibrate 5 times & Solid Orange light

I had the same problem when booting my HTC Inspire. It would buzz 3-5 times & an orange light would show. Nothing but a black screen. I pulled the battery & and back housing off & cleaned all the Volume switch contact points. There was also a build-up in the rocker switch on the housing.. which I removed with a toothpick. I put it back together & It booted up without a hitch. Thanks for the info about volume switch short.

[HTC Inspire 4G] garveygibbs:
SOLUTION

Please don't go butchering your phones

If you're a little handy with a torx screw driver (T5) you can fix it yourself

firstly find a youtube vid on how to take the phone apart...

after removing the cover stop looking at the video because that is as far as you will need to go

now for the fixing part look at the side that the volume rocker is situated you will notice a mylar ; its like a tape but its conductive and the volume buttons ground on that tape

clean that mylar very clean and use some sort of conductive tape to cover that mylar and just enough to allow it to touch the chassis of the phone (metal) you will have to trim the conductive tape because it has to be thin and flat

put the phone back together and thats it

You will get connection issues and very good batterylife. I'm hoping someone can find a solution for the issues by using a tweaked profile or another app. It is not harmful, just annoying. Any usage of your phone will shorten it's lifespan, and I don't think turning radios on and off is any worse than lets say your screen.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milestoner:
I have been using JD for over a year now on different handsets (Moto Milestone, HTC Desire, SGS2). The current version seems (mostly) stable and claims to extend my battery life by a factor of roughly 1.8. Hardware damages are unknown AFAIK. Connection issues can sometimes arise (very rarely & I don't know whether it's actually JD). Usually it restores a connection (3G or WLan) within 2-5 seconds which is fine by me. Note that connecting speed to eg WLan not only depends on JD or the phone itself but also on the router.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milestoner:
Earlier versions of JD did indeed have grave problems with restoring data connections. But this was around version 1.8 (I think). The current version 3.5 works just fine. Try the free version & if you like it I can only recommend the paid version. Once trained properly, the location aware switching of WLan works well.

(I'm in no way connected to JD, just a satisfied user.)

Well, first odin "atlas.pit + dl09 or di01" then flash Recovery (preferably 3.x.x.x) > then go into recovery, wipe cache,dalvik,data. Flash CM7. Profit
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
huh? sorry that wasnt english to me
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
what is the "atlas.pit + dl09 or di01" and where do i get it
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHoLyx:
open odin

go into download mode (plug the phon to usb then push volume down)

put This in PDA

and put This in PIT

Press Start.

When you are done Flash This in PDA

When you are done Reboot your phone and turn off the phone.

Go into recovery and wipe Dalvik/Cache/Data. Then flash CM7.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
did all the above, and now everytime i press reboot now in recovery it just keeps rebooting into recovery and its saying it cant mount a bunch of stuff and when it boots it wont even show the samsung logo anymore
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landshark68:
Follow the same steps you just did with ODIN with the DL09 file and the PIT file, but this time you also need to put a checkmark in the re-partition box under option all the way to the left of the start button. That box needed to be checked in order for the PIT file to fully do what it is supposed to do. Reboot after flashing the DL09 and Atlas 2.2 pit files in order to let the stock DL09 fully load with the repartitioning. Then you can power down phone, pull battery, flash the CWM file in ODIN, pull usb cord, put battery back in, boot directly to CWM by holding volume up, volume down, and power buttons, then wipe data/cache/dalvik cache and flash whatever ROM you wanted to go to, whether that is CM7 or MIUI.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
once i put the atlas file in pit, it automatically checked it
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landshark68:
Ok, I've never seen that happen. I've always had to check the re-partition box myself. When you booted to recovery (CWM), what options did you have on the first screen you saw? Did you have an option of "install zip from sd card"?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
and i just did the first part of the odin again with those 2 files and now my phone wont turn on
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendall316:
yes i did, and i tried to run it but it said it couldnt run bc my cache wouldnt mount
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landshark68:
Try it again, but this time use this file in the PDA section:

http://adrynalyne.us/files/stuff/CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5

Make sure battery is out the whole time

Use USB port in the back of the computer near the motherboard

when it finishes, put battery back in and power phone on.
