[Motorola Photon 4G] LouieGrandie:
Had the Photon for 29 days, installed the Maintenance Release 5 and continued to have the no audio on calls and random reboot issues. Based on the actions of the phone the last few days that I had it I came to a few conclusions.

When the no audio happened if I hit the mute button the audio would be there and I could hear the call just fine. I noticed that after a no audio call if I attempted to go into call history and click the person who just called and attempted to call the phone would always reboot. This lead me to conclude ( and I would appreciate it if someone who post some thoughts ) that no audio indicates the software has encountered problems and is no longer stable. The actions of the buttons are reversed and the system is on the verge of crashing. Any further action after the call will result in a system reboot. This leads me to believe the OS is prone to not being stable for whatever reason. Why this occurs is unknown.

I noticed that when the phone was flat on my desk, sometimes hooked up to power source, sometimes not, the phone would reboot on it's own. This indicated that even without user intervention the phone OS would become unstable, crash and reboot. What causes this is unknown.

I have since returned the phone to Sprint for a full refund with no restocking fee ( I suspect their technician was able to duplicate the no audio).

While the phone was fast, had a lot of storage space, great reception and great clarity the unstable OS caused me to return it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] phyba:
Sounds like a hardware problem. I have yet to have a reboot and after the update, I have yet to get a muted call.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SnoopDawg:
I had the reboot spam last night and the phone is completely face palmed.

Photon 4G, I really wanted to like you, instead you have given me the tross!
[Motorola Photon 4G] radrian92:
My Photon is perfect! No problems after OTA.
[Motorola Photon 4G] LouieGrandie:
User error? Really? Note I said I had the CM5 installed and still had the no audio issues. And since when does having the action of the mute button on a call being reversed happen as a result of something not being soldered properly? Note that the reboot happened when the phone was on the charger and when it was not. When it was laying flat and when I was holding it upright and looking through the contact list. I like Android just fine. Had an Evo for a year but upgraded because it lacked internal storage space. I plan on going to the Galaxy SII in a few weeks and last I read that's an Android phone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
What he means is that you didn't even bother to have sprint replace this phone for you. You settled, thinking it was a software problem. Which any user here would most likely come to the conclusion after reading your post that it wasn't. Random reboots like that would have sent me back directly to the sprint store demanding another phone. Companies make bad batches, and stores get those bad batches. The fact is you just settled for a phone that was working sub par. I have gone through 3 phones, all with different problems, but I don't settle. They give you that 30 days for a reason.

Would you do the same thing had you went to best buy and bought a computer from them that did the same thing? Random reboots, no sound, etc etc....

Mine as well as most others phones on here work perfect, maybe the random force close from an app or something, but I don't get any muted calls, random reboots, and if I did you better bet I wouldn't settle for it.

Good luck to you in Samsung land.

[Motorola Photon 4G] redhatter:
funny...Ive had no problems before or after the ota...the phone is stable as a rock...call quality is outstanding, no dropped calls like my old EVO..but im not sure the issues is random hardware problems per phone

This is killing me as I real think the photon hardware wise is one the all around best out...

Moto need to get off over their attuned about software... officially unlock the dam phone release the dam Kernel asap and let great independent software talent write and fix bugs for great hardware and so so code

Just do not think Moto puts the time in on thier code that then need too...
[Motorola Photon 4G] alkoholiks:
The only problem I've had with this phone was no audio a few times. After updating to 45.2.5, that problem has now been resolved. Photon is running like a champ.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SnoopDawg:
I did get a replacement phone and I experienced the same symptoms on both of them.

I do have information that confirms that Motorola was aware of the reboots and that MR5 was supposed to fix this. I did have MR5 on here.

I had an atrix before having this and put Alien Build 4. I was floored by the battery life and the ROM and device was rock solid.

I have a brick at the moment. This became a brick after rebooting loop similar to not wiping the davlik cache before a boot. It was stock. I was going to unlock and root to see if it helped the battery life.

I had been more excited about this phone than almost any other one. I have been a beta tester of Motorola devices, but I believe this one may have been pushed out the door a little too early.

I am glad people have this working well and I am glad for them. I will still love this phone even though I have experienced issues. It easily could have been a bad batch that is triggered by certain circumstances.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jeff_in_LA:
After the update - my silent call issue was 100% fixed. Maybe you need to a do a factory reset? I do that after all major OS updates.
[Motorola Photon 4G] SnoopDawg:
That would be nice to be able to do that. I repeatedly flashed with RSLite/Fastboot more times than a single person on a drunken night in Vegas.

I will continue to apply forced love to my phone. When keeping it real goes wrong...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
Haha, yea man that is great. Have you gotten your brick fixed? Let me know if you haven't, i'm sure there is a way to get it back. Have yet to brick a device. I would be amazed if you have, especially Android.
[Motorola Photon 4G] coldblooded79:
You must have never flashed a galaxy s phone with odin....talk about frustrating lol

Sent from my Motorola Photon 4g
[Motorola Photon 4G] SnoopDawg:
I never had anything I couldn't recover from ODIN even a partial flash(or even if it reset before it could finish flashing). I rooted both Epic 4G and Droid Charge with Odin. Just flashed a couple of Samsung Moments last week but they didn't require ODIN.

My phone will boot sometimes so it won't even stay booted. Doesn't matter what I do to it.

Djspinister - It will boot but not stay booted, it just reboots. I haven't ever had a bad flash that I couldn't recover from. I have flashed Windows Mobile devices, iOS devices that were eventually jailbroken. I have flashed several times right before going out to eat dinner only to have it fully recovered before the food came out. This just has to be a bad phone. It is a brick phone. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
You can't hold volume down and get to rsd? fastboot? anything? Even try holding down volume down while putting battery in, I heard someone got away from brick that way...
[Motorola Photon 4G] LouieGrandie:
After reading on numerous other sites of people on their 3rd or 4th Photon and still suffering from the same problem I decided not to bother. As for Samsung, before the Evo I had two Samsung products that were absolute rocks for me. Solid with no issues and performed well. Using a Samsung Instinct right now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ronnienyc:
My Photon is 100% trouble free. Calls are clear, battery lasts, etc.

Te only real issue is that I do not love the bluish tint on the LCD. Anyone know how to alter the gamma?
[Motorola Photon 4G] TJ311:
I upgraded from an EVO on Friday. My new Photon began crashing and doing the no audio on Saturday. I exchanged it at the Sprint store later that day and have had no issues with the second Photon. I really like the Photon much better than the EVO.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Erislover:
Has no one else been told in the Sprint store that you can only exchange once and then you're stuck with the device???? They told me they only allow future exchanges through warranty (i.e., Motorola will ship me a new one...no in-store exchanges).

Is this just wrong information?
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
Thats BS!!!! e-mail me at davidksims@gmail.com and I will send YOU the e-mail I sent Sprint. Not only did I get my 3rd phone, my bill is cleared until October!!! The girls name and number will be in my e-mail!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jtrosky:
I've been loving Android since the day I switched from IOS, but to this day, I still can't find a good note-taking app (mostly for typed-in notes). On IOS, there are many of these apps that allow typing, drawing, recording audio, outines, fonts, colors, etc (AudioNote, Notability, etc)...

However, in Android, I can not seem to find a singe app that allows me to combine typed-in notes, hard-drawn drawings and audio recording.

I thought those were pretty basic requirements, and they are in teh IOS world - just wondering if I'm missing something or if maybe it's a market just waitng to be had for ANdroid?

Thanks for any help you can offer! I'm currently using EverNote, but it doesn't offer the ability to draw... I see that they just released Skitch as a companion app for EverNote that is for drawing, but it's really not integrated into Evernote...

Thanks Again!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dude2k5:
You can try Extensive notes. It has options for those notes, but not all together in one. You can make a folder that has all the files. You could try emailing the Dev and ask if you can attach drawings to regular notes. I usually just use Extensive notes or beautiful notes for typing and handrite for drawings.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] mmapcpro:
I've been using tabnotes. It's not bad at all. Wish I could cut and paste inside the note like on xournal, but other than that, it's great.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Lawliet:
Freenote might be what you are looking for. Though it's not tablet optmised.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] wimpanzee:
I use evernote, but its just really a rich text editor.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jtrosky:
THanks for all of the suggestions guys - I'll check them out!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Online1:
Note Everything can do text, paint, photo notes. And more. I been very happy with it. You can make a paint note and use a thin line to write with.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] CarsnGadgets:
If you have Evernote installed, and its sister app Skitch, you can you pretty much do whatever you want.

Another great app is Freenote which allows you to type, draw, handwrite, take photos and import/export pictures.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the entity:
Long story short is that my fascinate will not sync to the computer through usb. This usually was not a major issue for me until the phone started shutting itself off, and wouldn't power back on without being plugged in. I'm thinking hardware issue. So I need to take the phone in for a warranty exchange, but I have powerwashed on it.

Since I can't odin due to my damaged usb port, is there a cwm-flashable stock rom available that also gets rid of cwm itself?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
Have you tried the following:

Different battery?

Cleaning the USB port on phone, both ends of cable and PC?

Uninstalling and re installing drivers?

I ask because I don't think you can get back to an official Verizon rom with out Odin, but I don't know for sure.

power washed is ed05 I believe, you may be able to find a stock kernel that is in a .zip file and flash with you're current recovery, reboot and allow the stock kernel to overwrite recovery but i'm not even sure if that's possible??
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the entity:
Yes, I've had the phone for a bit so I have a bunch of accessories.

different battery, check.

cleaned usb ports, and tried another cable

Drivers on 3 different computers (ubuntu, win xp, and win 7) too.

I haven't had a stock kernel on the phone in a long time, so that's a good idea for recovery.

I'm thinking if I can get an early build of a rom like geewiz(very close to stock) and reinstall the bloatware manually, then un root it, plus do the recovery thing, I can give it The appearance of being stock.

Or I can try to brick it and play stupid.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
So just to be sure you've tried hooking up to Odin, putting the phone in download mode and see if you get"com"and a number in the box?

I ask this because I've had my PC(running vista home basic and Odin v 1.7) not see my phone but Odin would still see it and I could still flash...

I would not try to brick it and play stupid..I brought them a fully binged and bloated eb01...not even a official release, when I was having data issues...end result my modem was fried..got a new one free and returned old one with eb01 still on it and never heard a thing from Verizon
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the entity:
Yes I have tried hooking it up in download mode. Windows pops up with a dialog saying that the usb device connected has malfunctioned when in download mode. Never get a com port. When normally booted I can't get the sd card to mount, but it will tether via usb. I've just been using an app called software data cable to transfer files to the phone.

Also ubuntu pc with hemidall gets nothing, but I don't know if that's just from my own stupidity. I've never been able to get that working.

Just as an update, I'm downloading an old, bloated EB01 rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=948943) to see if I can get that stock look. It's deodexed, but i doubt that will make a difference.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the entity:
Tried the update, and guess what... Not edify compatible. is there anyone out there that can package a cwm 3.0 flashable, fully bloated , fully stock rom?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
Here ya go...edify and amend script support in 1 recovery!...flash this zip with current recovery...select reboot recovery in the cwm menu after it should reboot into the 3-30 fix all recovery...I believe its 2.5.1 but don't quote me, the point is it supports both scripts, then flash the fully bloated rom you have...it should work

when my phone entering usb storage mode my pc cannot show the sd card folder in the explorer..anyone can help? im on GeeWiz rom and OTB kernel
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
Is USB debugging selected in settings, application, development...it should be checked?..also you may have to select mount external storage or whatever it says in the pull down notification bar after you plug in to your PC to get it to recognize it.

And one last thing make sure you have the correct drivers...if you do, try uninstalling and re-installing them
[EVO 4G General] Duke4eva:
Well I've looking around for a thread that shows terms that new people like myself wouldn't know such as OTA, all that stuff. So if there's any terms that you think would be hard for people that just got this phone or joined these forums to figure out please post them! I am clueless! Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
OTA = Over The Air, as in an update that's pushed to your phone

FC = Force Close

TB = Titanium Backup

CWM = Clockwork mod Recovery

RM = Rom Manager

RUU - The Stock ROM for your phone, as it shipped

Any more?
[EVO 4G General] Duke4eva:
TEP

ROM

Kernal

MIUI

Radio
[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
Try this site: http://noobgui.de/wiki

MIUI is just a rom, I believe it stands for "mobile internet user interface", but I could be wrong about that. It's made by Chinese developers, closed source, AOSP, and translated and ported to multiple devices. It's known for its iOS look and feel and theming capabilities. Some people love it, some people hate it. No 4g since it's Chinese and closed source.

AOSP is "Android Open Source Project". This is what people call "vanilla" android, no manufacturer ui overlaid.

TEP is Sprint insurance for your device. I think it stands for "Total Equipment Protection", but again I could be wrong. If you don't have it (or another form of insurance, like through Best Buy), then I suggest you get it. I think enrollment is open through the end of the month.

OK been doing this rom stuff since the captivate. But as I remember (whitch may be wrong) I thought a factory/data reset in CWM wipes the phone. As in every time in install a new rom(latest infuse 2.1) using full version and doing factory data reset all my files on internal memory are still present. I.E. the photos and app. folders..

Yes sorda newb question .
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
You need to factory reset your phone,or format your SD card to get that done bro

[Samsung Infuse 4G] chvybeatsford:
Done the factory reset in the phone under privacy.. never removes any files or folders .. just acts like the day I got it with having to run setup. But folders are still present. should I check that box after selecting. Says for external storage.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ZeroIsntTheHero:
In regards to wiping all of the folders and such, you would need to unmount and format the sd card to remove all of that.

Factory Resetting only resets the OS and files related to that, which is why you are able to do it without losing any of your pictures, music, etc.

I would factory reset and then go into SD card under strings and format then your on clean slate buddy
