[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Did you have ClockworkMod recovery installed? If so, do you know how to boot into CWM recovery? Disconnect from thr computer if connected, and press power and volume up to hard reboot and when you get to the dual core image, wait about three seconds, then press volume down and you should see android recovery in upper left corner, then press volume up and press power to select it.

I'm suggesting this in the hope that you did a nandroid backup before you decided to mess around and that you could somehow still access it.

If not, do you now have the correct system image files in your platforms or tools folder in order to flash from fastboot? Can you get to the "starting fastboot protocol?"

Look for your correct 3.2 wifi images here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1080963

Commands:

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

Good luck!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit3192:
yes if you somehow get into fast boot your problems can be solved.

I do not know whether by pressing vol up at boot time you can go to fastboot protocol screen.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hocplyr98:
Not sure if I have CWM installed, but I can access fastboot and that's not really helping. I'll try again with the link you provided, but I'm able to flash everything BUT system.img. I'll try again and get back to you.

UPDATE: Yeah... It's doing the exact same thing. It's stuck at fastboot flash system system.img. It just says that it's sending it and it takes a long time before an error message pops up saying that there are too many links.

UPDATE UPDATE: Okay, now, even in fastboot, it doesn't let me flash boot.img. I don't know what to do anymore

It's impossible to brick a Xoom. You can make or buy a factory cable and flash stock images from Motorola and follow up with OTA upgrades or flash whatever custom stuff you desire. The below links should save your Xoom. Don't forget to hit the thanks button :)

My prl is currently 60681 but I am seeing people with ones starting with a 1 or 2

What's different about those?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfenton57:
I checked with Sprint yesterday. 60681 is the correct one to be using according to them...I called twice just to be sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
i understand that but what are the differences between the other ones
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bl4ckcontact:
The prls are meant to tell the phone what cellular towers are available while on roaming. Some are using other pros in order to force their phone into roaming on Verizon's network, thus giving the phone better speeds on 3g and voice reception.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
Than k you for the responses but I might need to reword this

Why the need to have 3 different prl versions what does each do differently from the other?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Erigion:
They might be Corporate PRLs according to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1267893

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] craigbailey1986:
Are they rooted? Could be using a verizon prl....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] texasredrider:
i have seen like 20 different prls. I went through probably 4 on my og epic. You can manually update to all kinds off different ones to get the best reception and data speeds for your area.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
For the most part, those are all provided by Sprint... Just not to everybody, and some are "outdated," meaning you might not get the best in-network coverage possible.

01115, for example, was meant for certain corporate customers and allows roaming onto Verizon 3G, rather than 1xRTT for data. However, it is several months old now.

60681 is the current "peasant-class" PRL, which severely limits 3G roaming, because of expired agreements with AllTel (now Verizon).
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AustinTylerDean:
Hi gang,

I searched this forum for info concerning a wifi connection method sans ad-hoc, and found nothing for the Shift.

I own a Touchpad, and the connection is really flaky when using the imbedded CM7 hotspot support.

I was wondering if anyone had an idea as to how I can better utilize CM's config, or if there is work in progress to get the Shift to be able to connect to devices via infrastructure.

Thanks!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dster:
I recently moved to a new carrier that is just rolling out its AWS network. So, for the first time, I am experiencing frequent reconnections to the network (it just barely reaches my basement, for example).

It seems there are Android bugs that only show up under repeated loss/regain of signal.

One common experience is that without a manual reboot or reset of the radio, the phone won't reconnect even if you move into an area with high signal. For a list of experiences going back a while, see

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2845

I've also found that upon reconnection, GPS often doesn't work -- by that I mean that apps that make calls to the GPS receiver can't initialize it. No icon in status bar, etc.

Anyone else with similar experiences, tips, tricks, etc?

Once again, this is an issue that only seems to affect folks that are frequently going in and out of cell signal range.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nyeazyone:
Did you do anything special? Mine does not move from 3g even if I'm roaming...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ajmcedar:
No, just noticed it when I was at our local Red Lobster, poor service area, bounced between 1x and dig roam.

Is it possible to edit an SMS while it is on the phone still, or can you pull the file out and put it back to insert text that wasn't there before? I haven't ever heard of anything that can accomplish this, but I need to be able to pull my SMS from my phone, edit, print, and modify it. Is this possible? I know there are programs to backup your sms, but it is compatible in such a way that you can print it off your computer and also edit it before doing so?
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
That's an odd request.

[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Your SMS doesn't "live" in your phone. It "lives" in a Server and a database a long way from your phone.

[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
Nvm, I found a way.. and I dont think you're a 100% correct on that statement.. Even though the text do reside somewhere on a database, your phone doesn't check against a database to your phone to correct it. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Then, I'm guessing you haven't actually "changed" anything. You simply changed "your copy" of it, (which you could've done in about 5 seconds via copy/paste/edit without starting a thread, ala this example:

Very true and the records of your texts are kept for years. Of course if he is just doing this to show someone something, it doesn't really matter. But if Sprint was subpoenaed, they could grab texts from quite a ways back. I saw a court case where they went back over 8 years for text messages. I'm sure none of this applies to OP's situation, just saying is all.

Ok, im not too much of a newbie with flashing roms..but im trying to understand something. Ok right now im on synergy-kingdom rom and whenever I flash a sense rom, my wallpaper and settings seems to carry over from the first rom. Im trying to have a fresh install so to speak. Before every new rom I clear the cache, dalvik cache, data, atleast 3 times. and run a super-wipe zip...but every time it seems like things are unchanged. Basically i want to know how to get the cleanest install without keeping some settings from the previous install?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well you're doing it right; if you're on clockwork, it may not be wiping correctly for some people, in which you can try switch to amon ra, another recovery, or update to the latest clockwork. Cuz you only need to: backup your apps+data, do a full wipe [factory/data, cache, dalvik cache], flash rom, reboot. Then when restoring apps and data, restore only apps+data, NOT system settings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calico_NC:
ok thanks im using amon ra btw..guess im doing it right. Ok, for example...yesterday I fudged up my synergy install by trying to install a mod for a rosie. So instead of doing a nandroid restore, i just opted to do a fresh install over again after wiping/erasing all the things mentioned above. Upon boot i was expecting to see the wallpaper that came with original rom but instead I got the wallpaper I assigned earlier that day. For some reason I thought it was supposed to load all the original settings of that rom (including wallpapers etc..)and not some settings that I chose manually.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slagdude76:
I have done the exact same thing. I've had to repartition SD to remove the data. As I think about it, I started wiping everything except sd card, hasn't done it since then.

[Galaxy S II General] Virtualsk:
Since there is a 2.3.5 leaked. There are lot of people asking for changes so Just wanted to make a thread keep to collective list.

Here is my take .....

Fonts are back to normal now. No more bold fonts.

Launcher now has circular scrolling on home screen n widget selection screen.

Sadly say bye bye to overscroll bounce and welcome bluish overscroll all over the place. Even in browser.

Better quadrant score almost 4000. For those who love benchmark.

Oveall faster than 2.3.4.

SIP support disabled.

No new GTalk. Sadly true.

Gallery UI is little change. There also you will see overacroll effect.

There is now noise reduction feature added when you call.

Reported by many users about Improved Sound Quality !!! :). Its true !

When you set Vibration to Always, Icon remains in status bar even though ring volume is set !

Please post more you found on this firmware or upcoming leaks.

At the end we will get full change log... I will keep on updating main post.
[Galaxy S II General] gokussjx:
Wow! Can you please explain how you're touching 4k in Quadrant?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
By just running the benchmark at stock.;)
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
The stock kernel is the fastest one yet. It's quite noticeable that Samsung has made some improvements to this version.
[Galaxy S II General] i9000gt:
Battery life seems.to Better too
[Galaxy S II General] benjih:
One thing i noticed, on my phone is that the icon with vibrate is on even when not on soundless. haven´t seen this on my 2.3.3
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
Crazy things like that may be an indication that you need to do a wipe/reset or possibly a reflash.

Yesterday, after experiencing Dutch text popping up in my phone while set to US English, I reflashed a wipe version, and all is good.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Sound output quality through earphones is improved to my ears.
[Galaxy S II General] donalgodon:
It really has. It's not just your imagination.
[Galaxy S II General] EleCtrOx666:
Maybe those changes have to do with Steve Kondik(Cyanogen) they hired. Just a possibility.
[Galaxy S II General] Ke11ett:
This is a plus for me. Was never a fan of the bounce.
[Galaxy S II General] shaunbrookes:
This might not be an error, if you go to settings - sound - vibration, what is that set to? If its set to "always" then its working correctly then and the icon should be there right?
[Galaxy S II General] spud_work:
Same thing here with the vibrate icon - it shows unless you turn vibration off completely in the sound settings. Guess this is a new 'feature' of 2.3.5
[Galaxy S II General] Sparksltd:
Same for me with vibrate. Its because vibrate is set to always in settings.

I've found that camera seems to have lost its sound. Which is a good thing!
[Galaxy S II General] poofish:
I also noticed what seems to be a marked improvement in sound quality. I am listening to music in Poweramp with no equalizer on, and it seems to sound better than my zune HD. Before, I used to cringe at the sound quality with no equalizer on. Now, the soundstage seems much wider, and the highs aren't muffled anymore.

Or maybe this is all just a placebo effect from seeing people post about it.

Can anyone else confirm this?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Doubt it's placebo mate. I'm quite picky when it comes to sound and straight away I could tell the difference.
[Galaxy S II General] Toss3:
Sucks that Supercurio finished his review before he got a chance to play with KI3. :p

All kidding aside it does sound better, maybe anandtech's article made Samsung rethink the sound quality?
[Galaxy S II General] hiperjp:
Maybe supercurios's work may help us to check if this ROM really has sound improvements. ;)

(when source is available)
[Galaxy S II General] marcadam:
What exactly is the point of overscroll anyway, I mean when you get to the end of a page you know your at the end of the page right? Why the hell can't they just put a toggle somewhere in the settings to turn it off? I don't mind bounce but glow is hideous, it always looks banded.
[Galaxy S II General] skibadee:
My guess is blame Apple for patent action over the bounce. I think Samsung had no choice but change it.

Disclaimer: if this topic has been handled somewhere else already, i'm sorry, but the search sure didn't come up with it.

Hi guys,

I'm currently facing a strange behavior of my P7500. This device was bought 2 days ago, and appears to have an unlocked bootloader. However i'm not too sure about this, since i only checked if there's a lock-symbol during boot (there isn't).

When trying to root the device using the nvflash method however, i was facing the 0x4 error.

Also, Odin v1.85 fails to flash any rom whatsoever. Neither stock roms nor Broodcomb seemed to work thru Odin.

Odin fails with the following output:

<ID:0/007> Added!!
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..
<ID:0/007> File analysis..
<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/007> Initialzation..
<ID:0/007> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/007> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/007> bootloader.bin
<ID:0/007> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/007> modem.bin
<ID:0/007> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

The device IS rooted however, with the method described here. Thus, i also have CWM 4.0.0.4.

Another strange thing, that seems to point in the same direction though, is that installing Busybox fails (unless its supposed to take longer than 30 minutes).

To me that seems like its not possible to write to NAND.

Has anyone any idea how to fix/workaround this?

The firmware currently installed is the stock XWKG9.

Thanks for listening :D

Edit: With a different Busybox installer i was at least able to install BB. For the rest - still no success. :(

Edit 2: I stumbled across some other forum's post mentioning interferences by active KIES components in the system. Thus i rebooted, and the flashing process now fails later than in the original log. But it still fails.

Now i'm going to try a clean 32bit-VM (instead of a heavily used 64bit one) with nothing but the drivers installed in the system. Trying to flash stock KI1...

Final edit: I think i solved it AND found the reason why it actually happens: Timing issues in the system (in my case because of using a VM). It seems that when the system the operation(s) is/are performed on is relatively prone to lagging of any kind, the Odin flashing will fail, and most likely also any nvflash attempts.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
His final edit explains what he did: run ODIN on a clean system, not on a virtual machine. Running virtualized apparently introduces enough delays to cause the flashing process to fail.

Bring everything if you are returning it. Box, accessories, everything that was in the box. Tell them whatever you want, you have 30 days to return, period. It's not thirty days contingent on their agreement with your reason. You may be on the hook for a restock fee though.

[Nexus S General] plmiller0905:
I'm returning my Epic Touch today and going back to a NS4G. One of the main bugs is the phone having LOS (Lost of Service). This normally happens after you end a call. And the only way to correct the issue is by rebooting the phone. In addition, everyone isn't having issues with this bug either. I for one is on my 2nd Epic Touch and I didn't experience it at all on either phones. However, after i rooted my first Epic Touch, I then started to get the LOS bug. I exchanged it because at the time there was no way to return back to stock. Actually other than that, it's really isn't any big bugs with the phone. So make sure you check the Epic Touch forums before you go out and buy one.

And as far as the updates, this may be true...who knows. All I know is the original Epic is still on 2.2...or at least I think it is.

I may go back to the Epic Touch, but I want to see if the iphone is coming to sprint and it has to offer as well as the nexus prime.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Triskite:
I've played around with lots of solutions and am pretty sure you'll agree the following is the best and most flexible solution for turning off data when screen is off.

Download AutomateIt and buy Pro and you can use these rules (or tweak them to your specifications) to:

-Disable data when screen is off (in less than the 15 minutes the built in data manager lets you. it is currently set for 2 minutes)

-Instantly re-enable data when screen is turned on

-Create different battery profiles

My rules are setup so that data does not disable if:

1. Wifi is connected to a network

2. device is plugged in (charging)

3. battery is above 98%

[Motorola Droid Bionic] wanderfowl:
JuiceDefender Ultimate (and Pro, and I think even the free version) allow you to do this fairly straightforwardly, with extra options like enabling WiFi based on cell tower location and disabling data with screen on and WiFi connected. It does odd things with MMS (because the cellular data is often disabled), but that can be fixed with Tasker.

Although the solution you've proposed here would definitely help your battery life, I think you'd find you have a bit more flexibility if you just went with JuiceDefender Ultimate. Just my two cents, though.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Triskite:
Thanks. Juicedefender is definitely a good option. Ultimate is probably the second best option out there.

I found it to be too cumbersome and less flexible for making specific rules.

Jd was the first battery saver I tried.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dbutters:
I like Tasker for the same thing - you can set it up to turn off the data connection once the screen is off, then turn it back on a for a minute or two periodically to check for email/notifications. It's also an awesome way to automate your phone in many other ways.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] crupp:
I agree about Tasker. It is just so complicated to set up.
