[Dell Streak 7] chrisrotolo:
I dont think there is actually, frome research.. it seems like its similar to the encrytion password screen, but I think it is that upon first boot if HHoneycomb doesnt have some credetianls/etc. it is looking for it encrypts the device/boot partition. Vaguely what I remeber reading from a similar issue with the transformer I believe. A guy had similar issue but after 50 or so attempts it reset it self... was also able to get in after a low battery warning through emergency call I think..

really no explanation for it, but no I dont think there is a password, if there was it is likely encrypted anyhow deep somewhere..
[Dell Streak 7] nick2585:
I am having the same issue on my Dell Streak 7, after a factory reset it keeps asking for a password but I never had a password on it. I have gone through CWM and erased every single partition re installed, the stock 3.2 upgrade and every time it keeps asking for a password... Any suggestions?
[Dell Streak 7] lexcell:
Ditto. I'm having the EXACT SAME issue. Idk wtf this is but it shouldn't be a password anywhere on this machine. It's my wife's and she uses it for an e-reader at night. She has a new book and my ass is grass if we don't resolve this. How and why would Steve let a code be infiltrated on our devices? I've never heard of this and I'm not happy about this...not happy at all!!
[Dell Streak 7] nick2585:
I found out if you let the battery run down to 15% or less and the low battery message pops up, you can click Battery Use and get into the settings screen. I have tried enabling a password and entering that in but it still does not accept it. I also tried enabling a PIN but that did not work either. It does say my tablet is encrypted but I cannot change it. I am trying to figure out what I can do in there, if anything to fix this.
[Dell Streak 7] ImABoss:
I'm having the same problem. After I did a factory reset when it restarted now its asking for a password. Has anyone found a fix for this?
[Dell Streak 7] ImABoss:
The only fix that I have found is to nvflash back to 2.2.2 and then do everything again and flash honeycomb. That seems to work. That's the only solution I've found that works. But if you do a factory reset the problem will once again happen. Even if you do the factory reset from recovery. So make sure to not do a factory reset or you will get this problem again/
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Poll to all those with the password issue: did you use CWM 4.0 and either restored a nandroid or fac resetted with CWM 4.0 right before the password issue happened?

I may know why

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

The password screen seems to be the password to decrypt the /data partition.

HC supports encrypting /data to make it more secure.

CWM 4.0 incorrectly formats /data when trying to either: fac reset though CWM or nandroiding.

The rom is assuming that it's merely encrypted and is prompting to decrypt it, it cant tell the differences betweeen a corrupt partition and an encrypted one.

The solution:

If you are on a stock rom: reinstall the stock recovery and fac reset

If you are on Honeystreak R7 or newer: same as on a stock rom

If you are on Honeystreak R2-R6: Upgrade to R7 or a stock rom and fac reset

I will be posting a port of CWM5.0 soon with this bug fixed, it's still in the bugtesting stage.
[Dell Streak 7] nick2585:
I have CWM 4.0 and did a factory reset so, yes. Thank you for the info.
[Dell Streak 7] Maryan:
I have rooted DS 7 Wifi ver. with stock CWM 4.0.1.4. After factory restore Streak waiting for password.

Where can I find stock recovery? Flash use fastboot flash?
[Dell Streak 7] esincho:
I have the password problem. I get in fastboot and it says Starting Fastboot but when I run adb the cpu doesnt see the device
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
You cant use adb while in fastboot mode, you can only use fastboot
[Dell Streak 7] esincho:
I just got this device. I'm in fastboot, I put the recovery img in the tools folder. When I run the command for devices, it's not showing. The path is correct
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Is the driver installed correctly?
[Dell Streak 7] esincho:
sorry for my lack of knowledge, when I got the device today it was running honey streak already. I did a factory reset and the known problem started. I'll search drivers ect for more info, thank u

(EDIT) I have the device number showing in adb now

(Edit 2) ok if fastboot trying to flash the correct recovery, it just dont see the device in fastboot..

Solution

Hi guys,

I had exactly the same issue right now.. Couldn´t find any help on the web, but finally I´ve found really simple way how to fix it... But be ready you´ll lose all your data in the device (but I think it´s no problem if you make a factory reset)..

Solution is simple like this:

1) turn your device off

2) hold the Volume UP (+) and power button together, untill you see a screen which offers you a few choices started with "Boot up"

3) by pressing volume buttons choose option nr 3 - Factory reset (User data and internal tablet storage)

4) confirm by power button

5) wait...

6) the device will reboot automatically, starting with fresh new Honeycomb

7) set up your device as you have done it for the first time

8) you´re done, it works!

I know that this topic is quite old, but maybe it will help someone ;)
[Dell Streak 7] psyCORe:
you CAN solved this password problem by installing latest recovery (v5.0.2.7 -themanii) in fastboot mode,

once installed the password inquiry is gone !
[Dell Streak 7] artin1993:
None of the above worked for me.

Finally I managed to erase data via fastboot -w command and that was the trick to get rid of password issue ;]

Hoping it may help someone.
[Dell Streak 7] moiwillys:
Hello

I have the same problem with the streak 7. I also tried everything but nothing to do, he asks the password at startup.

Stp tell me how you could solve the problem. Command lines etc.. Well, I'm a beginner so trying to explain the process easily.

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy_man:
HEy guys i recently updated my phone to blockbuster rom 5.5 its a crazy rom and the galaxian kernel is capable of climbing the mt everest if it wants to.

I just ran a quadrant bench mark and it gave me a score of 2356 :O. I just wanted to know how do i take a screenshot of this if i try to use the default method i.e "back +home" it just takes the screenshot after going back one step or i get a balc screen i.e the screenshot is taken when the screen moves from the bechmark to the previous options screen.

Is there any app i can use ?

I tried searching did not find one !!!

Please help. I need to compare quadrants of three roms and decide between them

Thank you :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igot6strings:
Hey folks,

I've been having a hell of a time getting my tf to connect to the pc via usb these last few days. No matter what I do it will not connect to any pc.

Drivers are installed fine and worked great in the past. The usb cable works fine with the charger and devices charges fine.

If I plug the USB into the pc and then into the TF the screen turns on, so it knows its there but refuses to allow communication between pc and tf on any computer I try.

In device settings USB tethering is greyed out and no matter what I try I cannot get it to allow me to turn it on. Shutdown, held button to reset, restarted pc's, notta.

I recently used NVFLASH to unroot my TF for an RMA that I never got around to doing. Now I want to root again but without the USB working I can't.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igot6strings:
No one else is experiencing this? Is my cord mucked? If so why does it still work for charging? Eeeeek! I'm freaking out here.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AustinMartin:
Is usb debugging turned on in the tf settings->application->development?

I have no idea what you're talking about with usb tethering in the settings...

Is the device being recognized by your pc? What operating system?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
USB Tethering is greyed out on all TF's. If for sharing data service with another device and you dont have data service on the TF unless you have a dongle.

Have you tried putting into APX and checking. You don't boot the rom when using nvflash. Power / Vol + when booting
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beards:
Yes, if you think about it Tethering is when you wish to pass your 3G connection be that either through SIM card or Dongle to another device.

If you don't have either a SIM Card with Data services (which you won't have) or a Dongle then it is only correct the Tethering option will remain greyed out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igot6strings:
Hey and thanks folks.

Neither of my PC's will detect my TF but both did just a few weeks ago.

Asus sync won't work either. In accounts/sync Asus sync is off and there is no way to turn it on. Don't know if this is normal or not.

I have USB debugging on but still it won't get detected. Restarted everything multiple times too.

I cannot enter apx mode however I had no trouble doing so before.

Like I said above i can still charge with my cord just no PC connectivity so I don't understand what's up.

As for USB tethering, when USB is plugged in it should allow me to select it (even though I don't want to) thus why I think the problem is related to the pad or cord not the PCs.

Thoughts?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kumabjorn:
This is not only annoying but it gets more and more confusing. I can connect my other Android devices to a PC and move files between the devices. I should be able to do the same with the Transformer and a PC.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] depulle87:
Try new cable,the charging uses other pins/wires in the cable
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igot6strings:
Already ordered from ncix. Hopefully that's it or I'm out $45 with shipping.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
Usb tethering is for sharing the data service on your TF. If you dont have 3g/4g service on your TF then it will not be available. Do you have a conflict listed in your device manager? I have had to reinstall the Asus suite twice at this point and manually remove the drivers from device manager

[Captivate Android Development] december30:
After I flashed or upgraded to the leak Android 2.3.4 from this guy http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1232703 I tried to root my phone and I found one suggestion that calls

Fugu Root

, but it doesn't work for me. And then I try to figure out other way to do, And I have to thank you this guy to give me a kernel StocKH3 Kernel with Clockwork Recovery (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1242533) while I was looking for StockH3 kernel. And now are you ready to take a risk with me? If so, here we go....

1. open your Captivate phone that's running the leak Android 2.3.4 I897UCKH3, and go to android market then download superuser and install it on your phone, make sure that you have done this step.

2. Go to download StocKH3 kernel with Clockwork Recovery from this guy or download here to make sure you have the right one.

3. Do you have Odin3 1.81? if not, download here if you already have then skip this step

4. once you downloaded everything and installed superuser, go to download su-2.3.2-efgh-bin-signed.zip for gingerbread and here a link

5. Now turn off your phone and open odin3 1.81 as administrator, then connect your phone into usb cable while you'are connecting press the volume up and down together to get into download mode (you can do another way to get into download mode it doesn't matter).

6. make sure that your phone connected to computer, you will see the yellow on the box, when you connected.

7. now put put the boog_kh3_kernel3.tar into the PDA section, then click on Start button and wait until you finished and your phone will reboot.

8. go to upload file u-2.3.2-efgh-bin-signed.zip into your micro SDCard, or your internal storage. then reboot into recovery mode, the best way to do this is "adb reboot recovery" you will see Clockwork Recovery mode

9. Now, Go to select Install zip from sdcard >> toggle signature verification >>> Choose zip from sdcard.

10. then go to select one the one you've uploaded on your sdcard or wherever you uploaded to (u-2.3.2-efgh-bin-signed.zip). then select yes to install it.

after you finished install u-2.3.2-efgh-bin-signed.zip from the recovery mode, reboot your phone and you are now rooted.

have a good luck, it worked as well. sorry about my english also.
[Captivate Android Development] mabovalu:
Thanks.

I cannot get Odin to 'recognize', no COM port displayed, my phone, which is in download mode; steps 5 & 6.

I can get Odin, and 'adb devices' to 'see' my phone when turned on, but not in DL mode.
[Captivate Android Development] december30:
Does your computer have a driver of your phone? Have you done anything about Odin before, you can try another version of odin, it might work. But I don't know why you computer doesn't recognize your phone. If you never done anything about odin, I would suggest you to download Kies which is the updater firmware management for your phone, then you will have driver after you install this software.
[Captivate Android Development] mabovalu:
Yes, I have used Odin many times. ODIN and ADB 'see' (yellow COM port, adb devices = attached device) my phone when it is in normal mode, but as soon as I enter download mode (jig, 2-button) it loses the connection.

I suspect I am missing something, like maybe bootloaders, but not really sure.

I used UCKH3 Heimdall-One-Click [beta] to recover my semi-stoned phone. It (I897UCKH3/2.3.4) works pretty well: voice, SMS, 3G (DL is great: ~ 5 Mbps, UL just OK, previously ~ 2 Mbps, now ~ 500 Kbps, so maybe not the best modem for my provider?), but still un-rooted.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
sounds too simple to be a solution but have you restarted your computer? I've had some odin issues like that and a simple reboot fixes the problem. The other fix that I've personally seen is to change your USB port. If you're connected in the front of the PC, move it to the back and see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] december30:
I used this method ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1232703 ) to upgrade to the leak I897UCKH3. I don't think that is the problem about boot loader
[Captivate Android Development] gibson3659:
I think the standard drivers from Samsung that are used for Odin and the Heimdall drivers conflict. Try removing the Heimdall drivers if you want to use Odin.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
^ What he said. If you are on windows Heimdall drivers will conflict with Odin
[Captivate Android Development] mabovalu:
Thank you december30, nyydynasty, gibson3659, prbassplayer .

I am rooted.

I de-installed the Heimdall Drivers per the directions (below), re-booted, de-installed the Samsung USB Drivers, re-booted, re-installed the Samsung usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64 (different drivers than I had used previously), re-booted.

Then I could 'see' my Captivate, when in Download Mode, with both ADB and ODIN.

I guess my next question is, which ROM should I use? (I only ended up with this 'stock' ROM as a result of trying to recover my phone from a persistent soft-brick situation.)

I found these Heimdall Driver un-install instructions:

Driver Uninstallation Instructions:

1. Put your Samsung Galaxy S into download mode by holding Volume Down + Home + Power.

2. Plug your phone into your PC.

3. Open up Device Manager on your PC (Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager).

4. Under "Libusb (WinUSB) devices" right click on "Samsung USB Composite Device" and chose Properties.

5. Go to the Driver tab and select Update Driver.

6. Chose to browse your computer for the driver.

7. Chose to pick from a list of devices drivers on your computer.

8. Pick the original Samsung Composite driver, press next and then follow the prompts.

9. Done

In my opinion i would stuck in this rom. Until the official one cone out.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TurboFool:
Here's Samsung's own list of accessories. I'm hoping to find the Spare Battery Charging System at in-store somewhere at launch, as even with the claims about battery life on this phone I'm pretty sure I'll need it. I bought the battery alone (official) for about $20 on eBay for my original Epic, along with a cheap knock-off charger, but it seems like it would be worth having the nice stand this time. Plus I suspect since we're kind of a one-off on the battery it might be a while before we see the accessories popping up online.

The other thing I'm looking for is a good holster. So far all I've found is this which may have to do. I've always preferred clip-in holsters, but I had a leather one carry me through my Moment and Epic that I've been happy with, so I may do the same again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Here at the sprint stores, we'll be selling a slim case with built-in kickstand :) :)

It's pretty nice. It's all black, the back is a sort of tough nylon weave, and the kickstand is a black metal band the runs the whole width about a third of the way down, and a tiny hinge in the middle, so half of the band is the kickstand. I like it because it's a nice alternative to traditional plasticky cases, and the kickstand appears to be pretty durable. The fabric feel will definitely take some getting used to, but one upside I've found so far is the awesome amount of grip...this thing should never slip out of your hand.

EDIT: when I get in to work today I'll try and take a couple pics and post em up here
