Thanks to the both of you!

Amen to that, about the custom ROMs...You custom ROMers are just pushing us stock ROMers further away. The only custom ROM, aside from having this one tailored to us noobs with S-oFF, CWM, and root,that I want is CM7.

Enough pushing already! We know where to go if we want a ROM. Seriously, I dont understand this peer pressure BS? Is there money involved? WTF is it? Why do people here give a crap about whether or not someone has a custom ROM over stock?

[HTC Sensation] maff1989:
As you said, peer pressure. They must think that their way is the only way; hence, the pushing.

[HTC Sensation] krat0s123:
I agree. And those people pushing us to use custom roms must think that they're cool just cause they're using custom roms. Funny, when you go to the custom rom threads that they're pushing us to use, they have tons of issues and problems too! A lot more than the stock rom ones. And yet they tell you to install custom roms when you post having issues with the stock one, like they don't already have their own. I myself use custom roms every once in a while, I admit. But for reliability on the gps, camera, MMS size etc., I always go back to my nandroid backup. Custom roms are just for aesthetics and not too reliable as some of these fanatics are claiming. Also, my nandroid sensation with bloat removed is just as fast or even faster than most of these custom rom ones. And more reliable.

Hi Folks,

after trying to flash the SGS-2, the phones screen is still black and doesnt

get powered on by pressing the power button, no boot, no screen. Odin dont

know about the phone - no usb connection :(

any suggestion what i can do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Recovery mode or download mode ?????

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy572:
no, nothing. still black screen / no power.

i think, my mistake was a wrong .pit - i was using the 512.pit, i'm a sgs2 noob ^^
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m2smoe:
afaik, you do not flash PIT for this phone, ever.

Try removing the battery, then turning on, download mode, recovery etc. If that doesn't work, you're screwed.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mostyle:
Try purchasing a jig. To be honest though, it sounds hard bricked. When you plug it into a power source and try to power it on if nothing at all happens that's usually a bad sign.

To offer you saving point, there are two or three places on the web that offer Jtag services which rewrite the default boot loader.

What were you doing when this happened?

Did the flash complete successfully?

These things are hard to brick although not impossible.

Edit: Oh, just saw the pit reference. Ouch, you are going to need Jtag, friend.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
Dead as a dodo, jtag or RMA and hope they don't notice, say it was a failed kies flash or something.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No instructions to flash a 512 PIT file for the SGS1 phone its a totally different PIT.Same as putting the wrong fuel in the tank .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GIR:
You won't be debrick it at home, only JTAG equipment can help you now. Either send it to a Samsung Service center, tell them you were updating through Kies and hope they don't notice or find a Repair Service with JTAG equipment and have them debrick it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy572:
i wonder something why is a 512.pit file in the update pack (was rar compressed) as the FW is for SGS-2 but not SGS-1 ?!

tomorrow i send the phone to the service center, i can say it was a failure in kies - most pplz are writing this and dont have to pay something^^
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GIR:
You should ask the person who put it in the firmware pack... I haven't seen any downloads on XDA which contain the 512.pit file. Infact if you would've taken the time to read up on some threads here at XDA you would've known most experienced users advise and actively warn against using a pit file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intratech:
Bricked! You'll need to get it repaired by Samsung or some place with a JTAG box.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy572:
thanks for all answers here ;)

i dont have downloaded the firmware from xda but from samfirmware.com and a wrong odin version with that **** pit file ...

... and readed the wrong tut about flashing a SGS-2 - think this was the most mistakes i've made ...

now its realy bricked and i'll see if i can send to a service center tomorrow.

i hope repair is for free ...

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wsl85:
I recently received the Gingerbread 2.3.4 update on my T-Mobile G2 at my local T-Mobile store via SD card. As far as I can tell, everything is fine except for the GPS problem with not able to lock on. From what I can tell from reading other threads, it is similar to the problem people are having after first flashing CM7.

A little background: I am a complete noob when it comes to tinkering with my phone (taking screenshots with it was probably the most adventurous thing I've done to date). I don't really have a need to root my phone, but I haven't been able to find any threads that deal with the GPS issue with an unrooted phone. So if I have to root it to fix it, I guess I will, but I really don't want to go through with it unless I have to.

QUESTIONS:

- Is anyone else experiencing the GPS issue with an unrooted G2 or Desire Z?

- Other than calling up T-Mobile, is rooting the only way to fix the GPS issue? If so, will a temp root suffice, or will it have to be a perm root?

- If the temp root will do the trick, is there a need to downgrade to stock Froyo like you would for a perm root?

Thank you in advance for your help!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boyfrom75:
As far as I know, getting the 2.3 OTA update or getting the Gingerbread update from T-Mobile will lock your phone for permanent rooting. And you can't downgrade to Froyo 2.2.

It looks like you will have to wait until someon have invented a new hack or metode to root G2 with gingerbread installed.

Or just do a factory reset. I don't think they will have a bug in the new gingerbread update, the problem may be in the software in your phone.. you have to much garbage installed on it ... just do a hard reset,, if it doesn't work you and you want your old Froyo than you have to wait until someone hacks gingerbread for rooting ..
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xudsa II USERT:
My Desire Z is seemingly having problems connecting after the OTA Gingerbread update. I didn't fully test it, cause I only tried it once after the update, when I was navigating to a place (and so, maybe not having a problem). But that once was unusually slow. I'm adding it to my list of problems to tell the service center:D! BTW, I can root my Gingerbread DZ, right?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izzyinstl:
G2 GPS not aquiring signal never rooted

I am also having this problem. I purchased the phone and i think the OTA update was already installed.

I did a hard reset but it did not correct the problem ( it will not lock onto a sat)

Is there a work around yet? (hack for gingerbread rooting?)

here is my specs:

Anyone help me as I cannot get GPS to work :confused:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyraOfFire:
You can downgrade stock Gingerbread then root, then install custom ROM using this guide

wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/TMobile_G2:_Rooting

This is basically THE guide if you're on stock.

Did this on my phone 2 weeks ago from stock Gingerbread OTA and now running ISC (Icecream JIBwich 1.2 port) happily with GPS works flawlessly.

Then there is no other option for me to re-install the Cyanogenmod to get my external SD card back.

But the internal SD card is visible in the settings for storage, it says: Extra storage:/mnt/emmc Total: 5,51gb Available: 0,97gb

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdj:
I have this option to, but when I select it and reboot my phone both cards are gone.

So then I unselected it again and after a reboot my external SD is back.

I don't know... the rest of the phone is working great at the moment... oh and the strange thing is, I use Mantano Bookreader for reading books ;) and my books are still on the internal SD but after some scanning Mantano finds the books. I can read them and all, but then again when I search in Ghost Commander or something like that, I still can not access my internal SD.

I just don't get it, it is not gone or formatted in a unknown format.

But anyway, thanks very much for your respond.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] nstong:
I just got a new microSD, my phone formatted it as FAT32. I guess that's fine, but since everyone here is always extolling the speed of ext? I was wondering if I could format it with that. Running infused, so I was wondering if it would be ok with that on the external microSD also?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Android in 2.x is really set up to treat the SD partitions as FAT.

You would be unable to use the phone for USB storage with any Windows machine if the SD (internal or external) were formatted ext4.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rohit3192:
for htc inspire kind of phone this is useful where internal memory is just 4gb.

so one can make a portion of microsd card formatted as ext2(4?) for app2sd(storing/moving apps to sd card)

here with infuse there is plenty of memory.

just my 2cents.
[HTC EVO 3D] djk80:
Hey guys I have a unlocked HTC EVO 3d GSM. Unlocked and I put a custom ROM on it. Anyways everything goes good until I restore all my settings from Titanium Backup.

When the system settings come into place all my icons on the lock screen (the 4 going across the bottom) disappear.

If I changed to different lock screens the background changes however the lock screen does not. Do you guys happen to have any possible resolutions or which files might be causing this that I can exclude from restoring my settings with ??

Or is there a thread what all the system files do and I can only restore the ones that I need?

Let me know guys any help is appreciated

[Verizon Droid Charge] braveally:
Since I had the phone, battery drain has been ridiculous. Around ten to fifteen percent per hour. After recently switching to humble 1.5 my drain is nearly 30% an hour. I will try to recalibrate soon but should I consider getting another battery? I was listening to mp3s and checking email during that hour and about ten minute of gps. But the drain still feels a bit excessive. What do you think?
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
What kind of signal do you have? Under battery use, is there anything that's been using a disproportionate amount of battery? What do you keep on as far as services and connections, like GPS, 4G, etc?
[Verizon Droid Charge] braveally:
My signal is usually fine with 4g a majority of the day. It was struggling a bit today in the underground and I had to turn off and on the data to get a solid connection a few times. I usually keep on the data and gps or bluetooth on depending on the situation. Usually just a combination of those. Data is the only one on all day. Nothing looks unusual under the battery usage except for the display using 82%, but it was like that on stick as well.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
What was your brightness set to?

Sent from my gingerbread gummycharged gbe 1.9rc2.3 charge.....bro.
[Verizon Droid Charge] braveally:
Automatic.
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
Well, 4G and GPS together can use power pretty aggressively. Granted, 30% an hour seems excessive and may be caused by something else.

A couple things you could try - force 3G (you can do this manually or via a downloadable widget I believe) instead of 4G and use location services instead of GPS (unless you just need GPS). I know these aren't as "attractive", but can provide similar services with less power consumption. This will at least let you see how much consumption is due to these more power intensive services.

If you still have issues, you may have a battery problem (or may need to try reflashing a ROM, stock or otherwise).
[Verizon Droid Charge] braveally:
Yeah, that's a tough swallow just for the sake of battery. I can compromise on the location service, but really want 4g since it is so widely available for me. I will attempt to recalibrate the battery and then possibly reflash if I feel it's still a problem. Is there another rom you recommend that can possibly mitigate this issue. I tried Gummycharged on my phone but it is really buggy (launcher force closes every few minutes) on my device for some reason.
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
Depends on if you want a Froyo or a Gingerbread ROM. I was running the Eclipse Froyo ROM with the imoseyon kernel overclocked and undervolted slightly and had excellent stability, performance, and battery life. I just switched to a GummyCharged GBE 1.9RC2.3 but haven't really decided yet if I'll stay.
[Verizon Droid Charge] braveally:
Probably Froyo

Thought about it for a while and will be sticking with Froyo for now until Gingerbread has been officially released from Verizon. I'm hoping that will allow for most of the bugs to be reconciled. I read in various post that GB still has some issues. Stability, performance and battery life are my primary concerns.

On a side note:

Don't quite know if I am ready to start overclocking and changing voltages. Is there a recommended thread to get some basic knowledge on working with the voltages and what not. I only have experience overclocking desktops and graphics cards.

Thanks for following through with me on this as well.
