[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boscovich:
Goodmorning Sirs,

I have a strange problem...

My desire is happily runnig InsertCoin 1.0.8 with CM7 boot since months..

I am running also CWM recovery 3.0.2.8...

I'm giving a step by step description, in order to get you aware of possible upsets.

This morning I decide to install S2Ext program and strangely i found that

EXT partition was not recognized.. I reboot and have the same problem in S2E but everything was running fine... I was fearing that something gonna happen so I decide to have a nandroid backup to get clear that if something goes wrong I can restore all it back.

I successfully did a nandroid backup..

but..

after reboot I'm stuck at splash screen....

worried I went to recovery and I could not mount the sd card..

so no nandroid restore and nothing no sd no boot (A2SD+)..

Either usb mount is not working..

I verified that FAT32 partiotion on sdcard could be read from my laptop..

WHAT CAN I DO?

It's a recovery problem?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuraikaze:
Sounds like the ext partition has become corrupted, so nandroid/cwm won't be able to write to it properly.

Stick the card in a PC reader, then run gparted on it - recreate/format the ext partition at the end (without formatting the FAT), then stick it back in phone.

Nandroid should then be able to restore backed up .img to it.

[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
My Tab is brand new from Staples bought yesterday. After unpacking and charging,

wi-fi won't connect to my Verizon DSL wireless router. The Tab has v3.0.1 software.

I've read about plenty of wi-fi issues with the 3.1 upgrade, but, are there know issues with v 3.0.1 software.

I am looking for suggestions and help. Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] jakomo73:
a little more info might help, like what the wifi does, does it just join, but just says remember, or does it not find at all, or does wifi say error completely??
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
Thanks for your reply.

I never got connected. It says trying to obtain an IP address, or something like that. I also tried several resets using the paper clip procedure to no avail.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
And is your router secured with a key? If so, were you prompted to add it before trying to connect? Did you add it correctly?
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
It never asked for the password because it never got an IP address assigned to it.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
It can't get an IP address unless it has the WEP key to connect to it.

I take it your router isn't secured then.

Or maybe it's different for DSL *shrug* I don't know.
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
I may be wrong, but I think it must first have an IP address assigned to it by the router. Then, you must give the password to get connected.

That's how it works for my laptops and iPod Touches.
[Acer Iconia A500] bonzer2u:
Take it back and exchange it.....

my first one had wifi issues as well... hardware issue.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
I don't know. That might very well be a "DSL" thing. But in order to connect to a wireless router (which has been secured with a WEP key) one must first add the WEP key to the device then, and only then, will the device be able to connect - not the other way around.

Don't confuse 'password' with 'WEP key'. While their job is similar (preventing unauthorized users from connecting) the lack of a WEP key prevents connection, period, while a password requires a connection first.

But like I said, for DSL routers, maybe it's different - the only thing I can think of would be for you to log into your router from your laptop/desktop and check the wireless settings to see if it is indeed secured with a key - if so, write it down and try again from the tab, making sure that you input the key before it tries to connect.

Of course it *could* be a hardware issue. but it sounds to me like you're missing something.
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
If it says it is still waiting for an IP address, I can't type anything in....WEP key or password. I may have not been clear with the problem. It "sees" my router, but is constantly trying to obtain an IP address. Sorry for the confusion.
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
There's no confusion. Of course it will see your router if the router is broadcasting its SSID. That still doesn't mean you *can* connect to it.

Log into your router and check if your wireless is secured with a key. If it is, then you need to add it to your tab *before* it can get an IP address. I can't be any clearer about that.
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
Ok, thanks. I know the WEP key. But I don't low how\where to enter it into the Tab. I would appreciate it if you could post step by step instructions. Up till now, I have been trying to follow what the Acer manual pdf says:

"If you did not connect to a Wi-Fi network when you first started your tablet, or want to connect to a new network, tap Apps > Settings > Wireless & networks to manage your connection settings. Alternatively, tap the Wi-Fi status icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

If Wi-Fi is not on, tap Turn on Wi-Fi, and wait for your tablet to detect nearby networks. Tap the name of your network and enter a security password, if needed."
[Acer Iconia A500] gammaRascal:
Right. Click on the network, add the WEP key where it says 'password'.
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
I'll try it later when I get home from work and will post my results. Thanks for you help.
[Acer Iconia A500] weiln12:
What you're doing sounds strange. I too have a DSL router, but it works no different than any other router I've ever had. I've had several Android devices including tablets, and they all work the same. When you try to connect to a protected network, it will prompt you for a password. It cannot obtain an IP without the password, this step occurs after the password verification.

I have had issues where my remembered networks just sometimes sit at "Obtaining an IP address...", and never connect. Usually a reboot solves this problem. I tend to have more issues with WPA networks than WEP, but almost nobody uses WEP anymore.

But, there really shouldn't be a trick to it. Click on the network and it will prompt you for a password (WEP or WPA, works the same). If you've already done this, try rebooting.

I've never had the experience that jostarr has, where I needed to enter a key before a password.

Otherwise, like one of the other posters stated, it could be a hardware issue.
[Acer Iconia A500] jostarr:
Problem solved.

I tried the Factory Reset from the settings menu. It took a few minutes to reset and reboot. A s soon as I went to the Wi-Fi settings, it found my router, got great signal strength, and was asked for my password. It then connected immediately.

I then went to settings, and looked for any updates. It found the latest update, so I downloaded and installed OS v3.1. It took about 1 hour to complete the download and installation. My tab works great now. I could not be more pleased with it.

Many thanks to all on this forum and elsewhere who contributed their suggestions and advice.
[Acer Iconia A500] jillora:
congrats on solving your issue Jostarr. I'm happy you got it worked out.
[Galaxy S II General] 2fast2firlama:
Hi everybody,

I registered here so that I can post extra my report. Because I really want a stable cyanogen mod on my galaxy s2

I'm an IT specialist, and have started various tests with CM7 on my galaxy S2, and those are the FCs:

Problems when changing from ROM to Lite'ning Cyanogen Mod 7:

Installed CWM, then flashed --> No success. Restarted CWM the GUI was blue, then flashing --> Done!!!

-Huge battery-consumption

-Black screen during and after a call

-2G/3G Does not switch

-Media and general phone volume too silent

-Video playback does not work, possibly with certain file extensions

-Video recording also works not correctly

-Bluetooth does not work

-WiFi works but very lame, there are disconnects

-Some apps do not work for example Old Book of Ra

-After you select a CPU clock mode for example power saving or ondemand mode --> crash - then --> only boot screen loop! Solution: flash again

The default access points are out of date, for example ePlus WAP GPRS (Germany)

to AWLauncher

The Home Botton which starts the apps was lose, you have to look after

I also don't like the launcher it is not not easy handle, various unnecessary options and settings ...

Things that I miss:

With a Stock ROM, you can call a contact directly if you wipe in the list on the contact with the hand --> to the right, and send an sms when you wipe --> to the left, can u reinstall this function again? Its Cool ;D

Absolutly: Samsung Touch Wiz 4.0 and apps, such as game hub (I cant't find the apps Android Market) -> Would it be possible that you can install them separately?

Google Apps & Market (I know you can not install this with CM7, but this prevents the config of mobile phones at the beginning)

Q: Is it possible to choose a WiFi connection, befor you set up the mobile phone for the first time? Would be very useful, especially after a wipe. (Bakup Apps etc.)

Incorrect grammar reserved - thanks to Google translator ;D
[Galaxy S II General] Teio:
Seems like stock is perfect for you, you don't need cm7...
[Galaxy S II General] goodey:
also read the 1st post in the thread and you will see he clearly says DO NOT POST BUG REPORTS....
[Galaxy S II General] robstunner:
Wow. Just stay on stock an call it a day. I don't know why you even flashed cm7 anyway.
[Galaxy S II General] ghost77:
Will probably never work as good as samsung roms. Cyanogenmod and MIUI only include bare basic codecs supplied by google , they don't port over samsung codecs over :( because of licensing fees probably.

The only option would be to rely on third party software players , who do decent job if your phone is fast enough , diceplayer and moboplayer are pretty decent , don't expect to play 1080p or 720p@60fps thought :p only samsung based roms can do that.
[Galaxy S II General] the_scotsman:
The dev asked that no bug reports be submitted...it's not a finished product as yet...nightly builds are an ongoing project.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grkmaster:
I woke up this morning and went to the bathroom and thought i heard the alarm go off on the device. It actually didnt so I turned the screen on and clicked on the alarm app and then it wouldnt click and pressing the power button would dim the lights. This is probably the 3rd time its happened.

I then just powered it down holding the power button, like ive done before.. This time it wouldnt power back on. Cant get into the recovery screen/download mode. Plugged it to the outlet and nothing. Doesnt seem to turn on. It had the Touchwiz UX euro update wifi based..

Any idea if anyone knows what to do from this point on? (other than doing a warranty with samsung)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarcAntonyy:
I had this problem once the other day. It was due to one of Pershoot's latest kernels. Are you using his OC'd kernels?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
I have had the following behavior:

Touchscreen unresponsive

Hitting power again would cause the screen to dim instead of shutting off.

Holding it down would bring the powerdown menu, which would not be touchable

However if I let the screen time out with the powerdown menu up, I'd usually be able to unlock the device if I tried to power it on 30 sec later.

I've had this with pershoot's kernels (no OC) and with my own kernels (based off pershoot's with OC disabled and conservative gov enabled). Haven't tried returning to a stock kernel.

In your case it sounds like you've also had a sleep of death, whcih hasn't happened to me. Have you tried a long-press (10-15 seconds) of the power button? This should reboot the tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grkmaster:
Never did pershoots OC kernel .. was just a straight rom flash.

I have tried every combo to get the screen on.. it only seems to go into APX mode.. but i cannot do anything when i get there. i read somewhere to let the battery drain by leaving it on after apx mode but it seems the device shuts off after unplugging or idle after a while since i tried to connect the usb to see if still connected.

Sleep death? Doesnt that usually occur with the device being off? With me i powered down as soon as the screen became unresponsive.. this time it just failed to reboot

I try doing the reroot process since I have access in nvflash ... and just diong steps to see if anything will make it come to life and the first step which is -- nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --go -- i get this

downloading bootloader -- load address: 0x108000 entry point: 0x108000

download command failed NvError 0x120002

command failure: bootloader download failed (bad data)

[HTC Sensation] Firefall!:
With my three former phones (Motorola V980, V3xx, Sony Ericson X1) I have been able to to video calls over UMTS/3G. You know, that regular video-calling thing. Not with Skype, Google Talk, whatever. I thought this would be possible with the Sensation, why would it have two cameras otherwise (Yeah, there are other reasons, but still). I have however not been able to find out how to do it. And when initiating a video call to my sensation from another phone, it fails. So is this really a feature the Sensation is missing? Is there any reason? Any way to get that kind of video calling?

With this theme(becouse it is for DHD), the front camera is not working in stock camera app(FC-ing), and maybe you have to change bootanimation and downanimation becouse they are for DHD too.(they are working but, the "label" on the animation is "desire hd" on every start and shutdown)

This seems like a strange one to me.

My Sony MIDI / Mini HiFi system (I'll check the model number tonight), has a dual RCA / phono connection at the back for auxiliary connections (called "TAPE" on the source menu).

I've always been able to use a cable like this: https://www.mycablemart.com/store/images/products/1806_small.jpg to plug in my iPod or laptop.

I tried the same with my Samsung Galaxy S II, but the touch sensor in the screen stops working completely. All other buttons on the phone work, and the display itself is fine. If I play something first on my phone, and then plug the cable into the headphone jack it plays out fine through the Mini HiFi system. Any one else seen something like this happen?
