it was lowbatt then it shutdown, after i charged it, it never booted up till the x animation its just stuck at the google logo.. hassle, i bought this phone from india so i dont think samsung shops here in manila will even try to fix it.. i gave it to a really well known technician he said he was gonna jtag it.. i just hope he can fix my nexus s, i just had it for 3months.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindwalkr:
can you brick the phone by undervolting too much ?

or you can always get into fastboot recovery and flash a stock rom ? (or change the uv settings via ADB)

mine is completely bricked, i sent it back to samsung india, cause im based in the philippines. after my technician tried to use odin and he even jtag'd it now it wont boot up, its just dead. i hope samsung india fixes it for free cause its still locked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
Thing I should explain something. Bricks are forever. That's what brick means. That being said, you can as some call it "soft" brick and recover. A true brick, becomes just that, a "brick". The device will never run again from anything the end user can do.

Just wondering if anyone here would be interested in helping me with logcat . The issue im having is the camcorder is fc'ing on me although camera works fine. Im just trying to get this sorted out so that I can finish my port. Any help is appreciated. I know the log is kinda long but didnt want to overlook anything. Here's the link: http://pastebin.com/82Hj13fa
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
It looks like the Camcorder does something to the background data setting (perhaps to prevent interrupting during recording), and for some reason on your phone it doesn't have the right permissions to do so. Here's the stack trace from the crash:

Wild shot in the dark: Fix Permissions from recovery?

Or... wipe and start with that fresh clean feeling :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
You mentioned something about porting...are you trying to put a ROM together?

If so, one thing to check for is to decode the APK with apktool and look at the manifest. See if it's defining that it wants to use that background data permission.

If it isn't, one possibility is that the permission isn't defined in the Manifest because the app runs as a privileged user in the rom you took it out of. System apps can run as "system" if they ask to do so AND if they're signed with the same key as the ROM itself. Total speculation though, that may not be the problem at all.

Still debating if to update or not. What does everyone else prefer?

Did you do the official update and lose your unlocked bootloader? Or did you flash a touchwiz ux rom?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4dthinker:
Can't speak for everyone else, but I'm liking the TouchWiz UI add-ons.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raloc:
While I like the touchwiz additions the bugs that have been added alongside of it are really detracting from it being a purely positive addition
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pampyre:
I'm not a fan of the design elements of the update, nor do I find the additional features particularly useful. However, the performance and stability improvements are significant enough for me to not consider getting a stock rom flashed 'till it's equally as good. I use my tab a lot for simply browsing, and the improvements in the browser (not counting the ghastly tab colours/design, which I've been forced to remove entirely) are simply brilliant.

As far as the bootloader issue goes - I'd have preferred to keep mine unlocked, like everyone would, but considering you can still install CWM with ease it doesn't seem like an issue right now (at least for my purposes).

ps. A quick search/browse would have revealed at least 1 other big thread addressing this question.

Hey guys, first post here, but a long time lurker :)

I purchased my 10.1 wifi tab last night, so of course I instantly went into geek-out mode. I rooted my tab, then I flashed the ROM to a custom version of TW. I used the latest Starburst ROM (based off of the original TW). Here's some things I noticed:

TW is

definitely

the sexier option, however I felt like I lost the "snapiness" that vanilla Honeycomb had. I've also read that other owners are saying that TW(Starburst) is faster and smoother than vanilla HC. I think tonight once i get home from work I'll try a non-stock kernel to see if that speeds up the ROM.

The other issue I had is more of a personal preference...TW installs a lot of Samsung apps (mail, music, etc.)...I'm trying to keep an open mind, but as of now I prefer the original google apps.

Overall I'd say TW is very well done and you at least owe it to yourself to check it out, whether it be the stock version or a UX version. Just remember nandroid is your friend! Make a backup and then start experimenting so you can find out for yourself :D
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] LinuxAssailant:
Given under my hand this 12th day of August 2011, I hereby post a bounty of $100 for a ROM build for the Samsung/T-Mobile Sidekick 4G (AOSP?) that functions, and will allow me to sync e-mail from Exchange @ work.

I) This will have to have a non-Touchwiz/Samsung Dialer (contacts in same window, not open a new one, like on Droid1 [Vanilla?]), and not have any of the Bull known to be associated with the WHACKNESS that is typically seen on this phone with Stock.

II) It will be running Launcher Pro, so must work as such.

III) Another requirement is that when a page is loading, and you scroll at the same time, the BS Checkers are not showing (I think this is TouchWiz/Samsung specific, so shouldn't be a problem), if I wanted the checkers when scrolling, I'd have an iPhruity device.

IV) As staed above it will have to pull e-mail from an e-mail app (email.apk?) from MS Exchange server from the drop down notification without a FC.

*EDIT*:

V) Calendar must allow multiple notifications (from the app), and actually notify as such.

*/EDIT*

*MUCHO EDITO*

VI) PATTERN Lockscreen must be the only one. Not doubled. (No Shade lockscreen 1st if pattern is enabled, I need the pattern!)

*/MUCHO EDITO*

I am hoping this is kosher to post a bounty, but I detest TouchWiz, Samsung's dialer (phone.apk), etc.

I am looking to get something like Cyanogen's Vanilla builds.

I haven't coded anything since Borland's/MS C for DOS, so I cannot do this myself.

Hopefully I can get some takers, and they can better this phone for the community.

I assume the source is out there, just need to be compiled. Several ROMs are very good, but all have Samsung's TouchWiz elements, seeking to avoid that.

Thank you for your time!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
i like that you're going at! i know that if you use oprea mobile browser you dont get the bs checker boarding. its a very good browser check it out

sduvick is working on a stock dialer i believe its on his long list of work!

also he is trying to port cm6 which is helpful

im sure someone can get this working and will be easier if we get a gingerbread leak.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Reviewers:
We can't get a AOSP Vanilla ROM there are no leak's of gingerbread so we can't get anything beside's TouchWiz but if i was you try out my ROM "Light'ning ROM V2" It has the vanilla feeling .
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] LinuxAssailant:
This phone is really crippled, even with the AWESOME Custom ROMs posted here, and MANY are VERY good.

The issue is features that were not thought about when Samsung screwed up their TouchWiz version of Android for this phone. Calender not able to add multiple notifications, or not notifying via the 1st one if two were added prior (via gmail or a functional phone), Phone.apk not having built-in Contacts section, etc.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] LinuxAssailant:
It too is very good, but the dialer is still without the built-in contacts that is VERY efficient, and the calender is still touchwiz crippled.

I was late to an appointment due to this and the mentioned ROM.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ayoteddy:
he didnt say it has to be GB, just AOSP. and Sduvick has quite some projects on his hands atm but an AOSP build is definitely one of them
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] LinuxAssailant:
Nice, I am treading very badly right now!

Are there better leaks with MotoPhones or something?

Those came out all the time, solid and fully featured.

(FYI: Currently running your TouchMIUIwiz v2.0 ROM, 'Tis very nice.)

I would gladly drop the $75 for a new T-Mobile phone with a larger screen (since I am in my 30 Day trial for a few more days) but no other QWERTY w/dedicated number phones avail, and the stock on those will probably have the same issues...
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Reviewers:

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ayoteddy:
Lol i just said that.. CM6 is an AOSP build
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
We can get AOSP, it will just be AOSP 2.2.

This just jumped to the top of my list, I shall begin the challenge as soon as my Kernel finishes compiling.

As far as your list goes, let me make sure that I've got everything figured out:
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] guenwhyever:
I've been wanting to do this for quite some time as well. The only issue is being a full time student without a job makes putting up any sort of "bounty" just for some improvements is not possible.

However, I do have some spare cash and will toss all of it towards whoever breaks out an AOSP rom.

Good luck.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Meanwhile, me being a fulltime student who wants to get married, any extra payday sounds incredibly enticing ;]
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] guenwhyever:
Just to clarify, I want it as close to AOSP as possible.

Then, from that point, as much of it to work in landscape (EG: lockscreen) as possible.

And of course, any improvements like supercharge, voodoo, and so on.

I say improvements because I want just that. No changes.

I figure specifics aren't too important, because I can always tweek it from there or ask for what I'm not capable of.

Current unallocated money in my bank is just over 15$ xD

But with you already making the AOSP ROM, I figure it won't take too much effort from you.

I'm excited :3
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Well, compiling AOSP, rather than just making an AOSP rom is very different. making an AOSP rom is just a matter of theming some things and pulling certain apps, where compiling an AOSP rom is more like building a kernel, where you have to compile the system from the source.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] guenwhyever:
Whenever I see or use the words "AOSP ROM" it's always related to a ROM that is built entirely from the source code. Unless otherwise specified.

AOSP themed stuff, and AOSP apps are of course, just that. But when I say AOSP ROM, I mean a true AOSP ROM.

If there's something I'm missing, please let me know! :D
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
That's what I'm working on, theming is lame anyways, doesn't do what you really want it to. but because I have to compile it and screw with the source it may take a bit, it's my current project though and I'm starting now.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ncmacasl:
I am not sure if this helps but I have a non-rooted phone and hae "Go Contacts EX" (Contact Manager and LANDSCAPE Phone dialer) & "Business Calendar Free" (Calendar Replacemets - more like Google Calendar for Desktop Web)

I personally prefer dark backgrounds with white txt (OLD SCHOOL DOS/Linux [Slackware] CLI monkey here) would be nice, but I would settle for anything stable and functional even if it looked like Win 2000, or old school RedHat (grey, black, and white).

Another issue I didn't mention is the app used to txt should probably list if the number you are txting as their Cell, Fax, Work, or Home pulled from gmail contacts, as the txt app on stock failed to provide THAT basic function that was on all 3 other Android devices currently in my family. I don't know if that would be a problem...

To get a compiled aosp rom, we will have to have a ported kernel. so yes, there will be an aosp/2.6.35 kernel involved somewhere.

Enjoy the work of course, I would much prefer a pro build from the original builder himself than a port from me.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] LinuxAssailant:
Can a Milestone-ish phone.apk (dialer) be ported?

Simple:

(Phone), (Log), (Contacts) tabs are all I need(, Favorites opt.)

Contacts only in TXT then pulls up the contact's number listing cell, work, etc.

I have not seen a more efficient interface than the Milestone-ish versions, simple yet flawless. (The Epic 4g one SUCKS! "Drag floating icon to answer" was a PAIN!)

Like here... just a TXT based Contact list under the tab that expands when you tap the contact.

Hi guys!

I'm super very desperate! I need the community's help a lot!

I recently tried to load a custom ROM onto my friend's HTC Magic, but I flashed the SPL 1.76.2007 through recovery by a .zip file.

I did not flash the 6.35.10.18 radio before that, and I think that caused the problem, because I got stuck at SPL 1.76.2007 and radio 3.22!

I tried to load a 6.35 radio.zip next through recovery and this occured! Is my friend's phone bricked? I need to unbrick it very badly!!

Thank you!

P.S.: My SPL before everything was 1.33.0009 (SAPP10000) and my radio was 3.22. I had a HTC branded 32A phone, and I used Amon RA's old recovery.img, the 1.6.2H.

I resorted to updating the radio and SPL by recovery this because I kept receiving a InFOSignature remote: signature not verified or something like that when I tried fastbook flash etc.!

everything else fails to boot except for the blue led(trackball and power)

the rest just gives me a colorful screen.

I cannot connect via adb. so no adb bootloader reboots can be done. please help! I'm desperate!
