[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aikiwoce:
I love the simplicity of unlocking my phone with the fingerprint scanner. It's feels more secure than a passcode and is much faster. But, I'm not likely to recover the phone if it's ever stolen, for obvious reasons. So I had an idea.

What if the lockscreen allowed you to merely swipe to unlock to a fake phone profile/homescreen. With only the fingerprint scanner unlocking to the real one. Think of the possibilities! You could:

Activate a tracking app until a valid fingerprint scan.

Hide your phone activity from snooping girlfriends/boyfriends/friends. Maybe some functionality could be hacked into the default apps to hide certain contacts/conversations in this mode.

Create logs of activity, with screenshots and keylogging, to catch said snoops or criminals in the act.

I'm just a little unsure of how accomplish this. Any help would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S II General] Johandsom3:
I've had my samsung galaxy s2 for about 3 weeks now and I'm quite impressed with the phone (went from an nokia n97, to.this).BUT there are 3 things that annoy me.

1. I keep loosing my connection to the internet! Is there a way to fix this? It's pretty annoying to watch a clip on youtube, then have to wait 2 minutes on the middle of the video, to get the internet back on. (yes I'm in an h+ certified area.) The highest speeds I've een up to is,8,5 mbs.

2. Yes the battery.... On norwegian forums, people say theyre s2 lasts for about 2 days with moderate use. My phone lasts 1 day with nearly no use at all. (it's not the android os bug) the screen is usually threw main battery c consumer.

3. The phone gets extremely hot from time to time. Especially when paying games (can be the most simple game graphically, to dungeon defenders

I'm so sorry for any spelling mistakes and stupidity.

Thanks anyway.

[Galaxy S II General] Johandsom3:

[Galaxy S II General] tfn:
Hi

The phone has a problem in general about signal (also dependent on your network)

I would suggest you flash the 2.3.4 firmware ( Use intratech's guide in the developement section ) It seems to solve a bit of the signal yoyo'ing

THe phone does get hot while playing certain games as I believe they are not optimised for the dual core phone in mind.

As for the battery Mine last around 15 hours with heavy usage , my screen is normally on for 5 hours in the battery usage ( am stock not rooted) and I am used to overnight charging.

I tried to keep the screen at 10% but it dont make much difference so keep it Auto now.

Hope it helps with few of your questions :D
[Galaxy S II General] Johandsom3:
That did help me alot! Thanks. Flashing to 2.3.4 takes away the warranty doesn't it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSnet:
Hi all, I'm not talking about the recovery triangle with the exclamation point, but when charging the S in my car, I noticed that the battery icon in the notification tray would charge for a few minutes, then stop charging and the battery icon would just go static at 75%.

So I turned off the phone, and was then presented with a black background and white battery icon, with a flashing exclamation point.

I unplugged, and plugged back in, and the battery started indicating it was charging via ascending white stripes, But then it stopped and changed to an exclamation point again.

The battery was only 50-75% full.

Could it have been overheating in my windscreen (I'm in LA)? Or is there some other issue with the charger. What does the ! mean?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
Is your battery original? Maybe your charger is not supported. Not sure about this. Can you take a screenshot?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainmaster:
I think that your car charger doesn't deliver enough power to charge the Nexus S battery. Some smartphones are draining more power then they are becoming from the charge unit when connected to the car.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
This does not explain the error when charging with phone off.

I would exchange the phone under warranty if possible.

I've seen this once it was from a bad flash I had to flash the rom again just to get rid of it what rom are you on?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
I know that. Screenshot means that you take a picture shot of the screen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oscarthegrouch:
It's never a good idea to leave a phone, or any electronics, in a hot car during the summer. The combination of a hot car and heating up the battery while charging could be bringing the phone's temperature too high. It could be the charger isn't wired up for the standard micro usb charging. I've seen this with lg chargers and phones and data cables. It could be a bad flash.

If it can fully charge inside on an ac charger, then I might suspect the charger in the car. If it acts the same with a different car charger then it could be the phone. Try a 12vdc usb female charger with a data cable plugged into the phone. Try flashing the phone back completely to stock and do more process of elimination.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSnet:
Thanks.

This is a brand new phone with original battery, stock ROM, not even rooted.

The charger worked fine always on its previous owner, a Nexus One. It is hard wired into my car so not easy to change.

I wonder if the Nexus S has overhead protection that stops charging?

A screenshot is quite a challenge ;-)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] styckx:
43 degrees Celsius is the trigger point where it starts/stops taking a charge because of heat.

Heat

Its a samsung battery protection system the same system that wont let u over charge the battery once the battery gets too hot it will go in to this protected mode wit the exclamation mark

I restored to stock using

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112555

then rooted it using super one click and then backing up my recovery file and using 3e recovery file...then downloaded rom manager and used that to install bionix rom but same issues I have had since getting my infuse...I will download apps and in the middle of them installing, my phone will reboot and delete random apps...I've unrooted and tried a couple times...so do I just have a bum device? I've moved the apps to phone memory also. They delete also when simply just rebooting my device. It seems over time that it becomes the same apps that delete while others will stay.

I have tried searching but couldn't come up with much. I am going to attempt to unroot and then try it all over again.

EDIT: Finished and it is still removing apps with every reboot...guess the phones going back.

Is it doing the samething under stock ? And have u tried installing from .apk instead of market?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fee454:
I move them all right away to the phone memory and when I first got the phone I noticed it was doing it when it was stock also. I read somewhere about a certain number of phones having a problem with the LCD at the very bottom where it looked like txt rolling under old warped glass? It's not noticeable unless your looking for it...but if there was a bad batch of phones maybe this is related?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
I.would unformat wipe your card mount it. Then let.media scanner run.whens it done open settings and select usb debugging and check.unknown sources.try that if you havent yet
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fee454:
Usb debugging and unknown sources are already checked. I will reformat card and try that. I'm at work so I'll have to verify that it worked once I'm home
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Misterjunky:
re: external SD card

Here is a suggestion.

Put your phone into mass storage mode and copy/backup everything on your external sd card to your computer.

Unplug usb go to settings>applications>development and disable USB debugging, then plug in USB cable from computer, and select mass storage mode.

Then open "computer or my computer" on your pc and find your external sd card drive icon.

Right click mouse on the icon and select "format"

(be 100% sure that the drive you are formatting is your external sdcard)

After you are sure of that, uncheck the box which says "quick format" leave all other options alone and start the format, when its done formatting

copy all the files you backed up to your external sd card and I am almost certain that after doing this you will have no problems with your external sdcard.

Good luck!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fee454:
I will try that once I'm home from work thanks for everyones responses. One question is my phone is now in ext4 format I believe. Would that cause any kind of issue?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] iphonedefector:
OK so by my name you can see where I came from. I started with the atrix and it sucked , very unhappy with that phone. Went back into my iPhone 4. Then tried the HTC inspire, crashed non stop , very dissapointing. Nothing seemed to measure up and facetime was something I missed big time. Back to my iPhone those phones lasted 4 weeks combined. I have been in this phone for 3 weeks and while I look for.things I was use too some, its overall a better phone for me than iPhone. Like the SMS apps, customization better, the screen being bigger is a huge one. The 8 MPH camera is awesome. Used a pic I took for my website and it looks great. Multiple launchers to give you the feel you want. I get some force closes , but my ios did too. I was jailbroken so I could use my phone to the fullest.

The speed of this phone is great and I am sold on android after this. That's just my thoughts I would say u have a bad unit and give it another shot. I will get the galaxy s2 when it arrives. If the iPhone 5 isnt 4.2" I wont even sniff it, unless there is chocolate on it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Fee454:
Good to know. I hope my replacement infuse works the way it should. I will be exchanging it in about 6 hours.

Get Root Explorer and use that, or if you're not sure and need to make sure you have root access just download busybox from the market and it will check to see if you have root, that's a fast way to determine if your root access is functioning or not.
[HTC EVO 3D] irishgreen:
Just install Root Explorer from market..then go to system>app> and click and hold on what u want removed and then click delete(If it says it cant be deleted the click where it says write r/o or write r/w up top i always get them confused..lol..then do it again it then they will delete no problem) I just got rid of a crapload of bloat this way..hope it helps

Running into strange issue.

Have complete root. Using root explorer, root user granted.

When i first go into the program I can set to R/W. However, once R/W is set and then I go into the system folder it goes back to R/O. If I back out to the first page it goes back to R/W.

It's very weird that it'll only stay R/W on some folders and not others.

Any ideas what might cause this?

UPDATE: I uninstalled root explorer and downloaded ES File Explorer. Gave ES root permissions, and hurrayyyy. I can delete the bloatware.

[LG Optimus 2x] droweed:
install CWM by

rusty

, the external version, so that is displays the external sd in CWM...

about loosing your usb access, its a current bug in MIUI afaik, if that occurs, use the app dual mount sd from the market, something like that name, cause right now native sd mounting in MIUI is buggy..

note: I've seen a patch on MIUI thread about using your external sd as the main one, instead of the internal sd, and it fixes the mounting problem in MIUI :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
If he installs it and the external SD card isn't recognised, it will fall back to the internal storage.

Okay. Well I was using my (rooted, Prime 1.5) Asus TF a week or so ago and it was working fine. But then when I tried to unlock the tablet the screen would turn on, but then turn back off in a second. I wiped everything off of the damn thing. I took the sd card, I WIPED EVERYTHING. And to my dismay it still did not turn on. I have virtually raped google looking for answers, but I cannot find any similar problems.
