[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirandeep:
ok clean rom KI3 from samfirware, just started up after flash via Odin and ...nothing, still the same, little buzz to notify that its charging and plugged in but still no usb notification!!

:(

just tried on another pc (should have done this earlier) and nothing, pc and phone cannot see each other.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirandeep:
update

from stock rom gone back to leomar using cf root, used titanium to restore the main apps, after much messing around i managed to get usb connected BUT it goes on and off and switching between usb and car mode?? i took cable out and it now and again switches on and off to car mode of its own accord, and i hear the sound notification as if the cable is put in but the cable is not in.

does this sound like a hardware problem?

update

done some more searching, and could be dirty/damaged microusb connector, cleaned a little with brush and can get a steady usb connected when cable is put in.....
[Dell Streak 7] Klinus:
Well,

I've new Dell Streak 7. Today I updated Android to "Honeycomb" 3.2 via Dell site.

After this update screen started blinking/flickering (it looks like something with refresh rate). Nothing changed after soft reset/hard reset. This is visible even on any brightness level (full - 100% - too) and when plugged/unplugged.

What should I do?
[Dell Streak 7] androidowns:
I noticed the same thing. Turn off automatic brightness. It worked for me.

TY guess it's just TV shows.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] applejoos:
I got my SGx2 yesterday but I am sending it back. Here are a few things that I found that some may find helpful;

1) Screen resolution is simply too low for this large of a display. Many apps were grainy due to stretching, web pages were difficult to read and did not zoom correctly. Buttons and UI elements were comically large. I think the engineer had a sight problem.

2) Tethering did not work - Mind that I do not have the tethering option on my plan, and yes I know there are work arounds however coming from a nexus s I am spoiled. It simply forces your browser to a t mobile page to upgrade your account.

3) I heard several people say don't knock Touchwiz 4 until you try it, well I tried it and didn't like it. Very fisher price feeling, too cartoony for my tastes. I had to install launcher pro as soon as i could.

4) There was so much bloatware on this device. There were at least 15 apps that I would never use.

Good Stuff

1) Even though the screen resolution is crap, it still is a pretty screen, very bright and vibrant.

2) Data is fast, very very fast. This will be what I miss most going back to my nexus s. I was getting 13MB down in Milwaukee.

3) Fast, can't knock the performance. The first non-stock android experience i have had that didn't have any lag. I would love to see a stock android build run on this thing.

I hope this helps answer any questions for potential buyers. Feel free to ask anything I may have missed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brian6685:
I've got a nexus s and I have been debating getting the sgs2. I love my nexus and personally like Samsung phones...only thing holding me back is waiting to see if the prime makes it to T-Mobile sometime. I don't wanna be waiting for ICS and I know the nexus s will get it. I'm also debating the amaze, but as I said, I like Samsung better then htc
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wondercoolguy:
OP what device did you come from and are you going to the IP4S?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icon57:
i was going to buy this phone on launch date, but i think i will also wait this one out, and see whats coming out in the next few months. nexus one still does what i need it to do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] applejoos:
I use a Nexus S. I do have an IP4S on order, but my Nexus will still remain my primary device. I am the sysadmin for alot of organizations that use the google apps eco system. For that Android will always be my primary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wondercoolguy:
What did you expect going from pure android to masked android :-p. I'm waiting on this phone for the annoucement next week and to see if Cyanogen supports it. I'm assuming they will because they supported the Vibrant and it sucked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] applejoos:
This is precisely why I have been with my nexus this long, and my original droid before that. Unfortunately I was convinced by all of the professional reviewers that this unit was somehow different. It's no harm no foul, im only out the $12 for the overnight shipping :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wondercoolguy:
tru.dat I'm currently using Nexus One and have been since the day it came out. It's just time and Hercules w/ Cyanogen or the Galaxy Nexus is the perfect device to give it up. If I do get a hercules then I'm gonna throw launcher pro ASAP I hate touchwiz and I've seen 4.0 on Epic touch just lame
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brian6685:
Just walked into the store and played with the gs2. I can't justify spending 600 on it when my nexus works just as well, nothing that special
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
If you have a pure google phone stay away from it. Not a real reason to upgrade. T-mobile wants you to pay for tethering mytouch 4g tethering didn't work outside the box either. Touchwiz makes everything look big use a different launcher like adw ex , go launcher, or launcher pro. to adjust rows and columns. Once root comes change the density of the phone to make everything look better also uninstall the battery draining bloatware. The nexus prime will be nice with its 720p display but for one doesn't have a sd card. Apps will be even more incompatible with the screen look at certain games on the sensation. Ice cream sandwich source will drop meaning it will reach all rooted phones within a month or two. The only benefit you get is straight google updates. Unless you want touchwiz with icecream you'll be running cm 8 or miui.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] vmartinez39:
Like mentioned here, waiting to see how XDA devs support for it, CM7, and other love from developers.

I was lucky to at least have devices with XDA Support. Blind luck. I'm sure it will get it. It better lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] phewizzo:
Posting from this phone and i can say this phone is blazing fast!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jjday7:
I think a handful of people doing an upgrade or buying retail will be let down. If your coming from a sensation or a Nexus S than I could see why. This is not a god phone and although it comes with some goodies. Some might think it's not that big of a step up. Personally the screen alone makes the other phones pale in comparison.

People getting new contracts will most likely be happy with this phone. I don't see any other on tmobile at the moment that I would sign a two year contract on.

The people that did get the phone and return it. Did you notice any GPS issues with yours?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wondercoolguy:
How do you know that for sure....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] applejoos:
I didn't use it long enough to test GPS sorry. I did turn it on and fire up maps, mine seemed to lock on quickly, I was stationary though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
well at least i know i finally can dump the nexus S for Hercules, for the extra space speed and SD card slot

i felt like i was jailed for a year on the nexus S

couldn't do much with the limited space
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
Well for one all the reports say it doesn't. Also google would probably want to keep it from having a sd card slot. Less vulnerable to exploits. Internal memory is also faster than sdcard slot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wondercoolguy:
That basically kills it for me....wow now I don't have to wait :-P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
You should still wait for the prime if it has 64 internal gig memory. Then it will be a buy over this if its just 16 gigs no sd card slot like the nexus s. 16 gig space isn't enough with all the clockwork backups titanium backups. and miui back ups. You'll run out of space fast. I personally cant get a phone without a sd card slot because i watch a lot of movies and listen to a lot of music on my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] quest4fire:
I got the Hercules this morning, was the 2nd one to get it at my local T-Mobile store. This phone is BEAST. Lightning quick and beautiful display. GPS locks quick.

Also purchased the Body Glove case, very nice case--has an Otterbox feel to it.

I paid full price ($529), didn't want 2 year contract because I dont want to be stuck with AT&T if the merger goes through. Felt it was worth paying extra to have freedom and AT&T would probably offer me a sweet deal to stay (i.e. Nexus Prime).

If you are coming from a Vibrant like I am, you will be very happy with the Hercules :)
[Blade General] mcdroider:
I have the zte blade, but the power key has an issue where it often doesn't respond to pressing and constantly locks and unlocks for no reason!

Is it possible to disable this button and assign the volume up key to do locking and unlocking, or just disable and use the menu key and a lock widget.:mad:
[Blade General] wbaw:
It might be possible to remap it for locking & unlocking your phone.

I'd suggest cleaning the power button carefully using a little bit of electronics contact cleaner, then it should be as good as new.
[Blade General] De@n:
You could use Intelligent Keylock Unlocker from the market.
[Blade General] mcdroider:
Thanks, bought some contact cleaner and its working perfectly:)
[HTC Sensation] tifosi256:
Hey everyone.

I know a lot of us installed the apk for the new market. I recently uninstalled mine as it had some bugs and I was thinking I would be upgraded to the latest once I did so (by push).

However, nothing! I'm on the old market. I'm on Vodafone UK - are others on Voda still waiting for an update or did I miss the boat by manually installing the apk?
[HTC Sensation] TheStigx:
You could just install it manually. From here:

http://www.apktop.com/android-market-3-1-6.html

If I am correct 3.1.6 is the newest android market, if not then somebody will correct me :D
[HTC Sensation] daddyspud:
Yh u can install manually if u go to setting and turn of automatic update it won't go back to ur old market when u reboot

Here is the nexus prime leaked market

Market 3.2.0

http://db.tt/zgot2FzW
[HTC Sensation] tifosi256:
Thanks, I may re-install it, but I was wondering if everyone else has been upgraded over the air and it's just me left behind - or whether this is one of the slowest android rollouts in history!
[HTC Sensation] craig1965:
I haven't received mine yet UK t-mobile but the weird thing is my wife has on her froyo wildfire

Thanks. I downloaded but when I try to install, it keeps saying application not installed.
[HTC Sensation] stfu:
market PEST infected.. :)

i'd noticed that the new market got some bugs.. probably if u wont go back !!

i really hate that. currently i am on 3.1.5

so what about about 3.2.0

bug fixed ??
[Blade General] perakesson:
I have one reason not to use CM7:

The ZTE Dialer, which displays my contact groups, based on those Google contacts tagged as "My Contacts".

Without the dialer, I only know the apps Go and Youlu, which display contact groups. But they display filtered groups based on ALL my 1000 Google contacts, causing great confusion. I only want the selected (tagged as My contacts) ca 200 contacts from Google to display on the phone, divided in the groups, thus about 10-20 contacts per group, perfect for my daily phone use. And only the ZTE stock dialer does that, as far as I know.

I don't think there is any other solution except for the ZTE stock dialer.

3 days ago the official ZTE 2.3.5 Bin was released. Since yesterday there is an Elitemovil ROM based on it here on XDA. I will probably try it out, it seems to be perfect for my need. But first I wonder, is there any chance to extract the ZTE dialer from this ROM, in order to install it on CM7 via Clockwork? Or will this break something. It would be really nice to have an optional ZTE dialer for CM. :)

the buttons are capacitive, both of them, back and menu, but i dont have problems with them... works fine in fact
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FreeZr:
Some people have problems with them, i however dont.

It seems like some countries are getting different quality phones, i have yet to hear a german mini pro owner complain about the hardware buttons or the touchscreen.

Indians or east-euro countries seem to be the most affected

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FreeZr:
Just take a look at the LG Forums. 90% of the people complaining are Malaysian / Indian / Philipinos

It really seems like some countries are getting cheaper hardware -_-
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dryhte:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] oysteivi:
My Active was activating back (or home) and menu like crazy yesterday. Every app closed really quick, and back at the home screen the menu (add, wallpaper, theme, settings) kept rapidly opening and closing. Turning the phone off and on helped, but I suppose it will come back later.

The situation: about 30-40 minutes outside in 5-6 degrees C in my jeans pocket, then 5-15 minutes inside a cafe before it started acting up. I was trying to take a picture with the stock camera app when I noticed the problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] FreeZr:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] adimcx:
My ST15i has worked just fine for more than one month, but now it works ok only until the temperature goes above 34-35 celsius degree. Then the capacitive buttons starts activating, and the phone does not respond to any other command untill the temperature drops below 30 degrees. :mad:

I hope the SE will come with a better solution, because those one with the motherboard changed or with any other hardware repairs, still have this problem.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UgloBuglo:
What do you mean by unlock the phone?

If you mean to root it, then no, you do not have to unlock the boot loader.

If on the other hand you mean unlock a phone from a specific carrier, then I truly do not know... bought my own phone carrier free.

And now I saw that you will be using it while traveling overseas, so I suppose you mean unlock the phone from a specific carrier :-)

Stability
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Because roms like this are not being developed from scratch and the guys/gals who make them are not developers in the sense of the definition of the word. What they do is take stock roms, and then make changes and tweaks to theme them and add a few features. But they are basically stock roms with stock drivers. There are only a few true developers who compile roms such as the people that do AOSP roms or CM. I am not downplaying what these guys do and many people enjoy their work; but don't expect a higher version number than what LG has already put out.
