i am having trouble with data when connected to wifi. browser will time out and applications will not load data when refreshed. but the speed test works just fine. i know its not my router because all of my other devices work fine. is anyone else having this problem?

I have a few screen lines, nothing too bad only noticeable in grays.

Random reboots have increased, that is becoming annoying.

this is good to know, i'll add it to the Confirmed Known issue list
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] steveintx:
First post and hopefully helpful.

The missing lock screen bug occurred on my phone after I went into LCD Test mode *#0*# and performed a Sub Key test. I also lost the power off (silent mode, flight mode, power off) feature... the phone would just turn off with no options.

Only way to get the lock screen and power options back was to do a hard reset. Really not a big deal for me cuz I'll never do another Sub Key test.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
yup!, that's indeed how it gets lots

yeah, it was confirmed, but thanks for confirming it again :)

make sure to fill out the BUG report form and report it to Samsung, the link is in the sticky
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] steveintx:
Dang... I searched all over the forum looking for what triggers the bug and could only find this http://xdaforums.com/show...3&postcount=12

The camera test was okay on mine but a sub key test caused the problem every time.

Done!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dsp4774:
I can refine this a bit.

From what I can tell, it looks like the system is not handling data switching correctly. If you are using wifi and data simultaneously, the system should always default to wifi first. What is happening looks like confusion--it doesn't know which connection to use, so it bombs. I see this a LOT in the Market app, and I'll hit that retry button 20 times before backing out, turning on Flight mode, turning it off again, and going back to the Market app. It affects other things as well, such as the browser and anything else that relies on internet data. It looks to me like a lot of the system governors are just poorly written, and this is no exception.

We see similar problems with audio when using any other music player than the bulit-in one. It somehow loses focus on other music apps when the screen times out or is turned off. It will continue to play whatever song was playing before the screen off event, and then it will stop until you either turn the screen on or plug/unplug the headset jack.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] twerk:
The 4g and wifi issue is the same one I am having, I am also having the random phone heats up and drains really fast issue... Do you think that is enough for me to exchange it for a new one at t-mobile?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jangst123:
This makes it seem like all the S II's have all these issues!

Which is not at all correct.

If I looked at this thread before buying, I would never buy this phone.

If enough people don't buy this phone, developers will not cook ROMs for it.

I would suggest wording it "List of known issues - confirmed - on some phones"

Thanks for taking the time to make the list!

Has anyone had problems where they are showing full bars but there isn't an edge or 4g icon showing? or an edge or 4g icon but no bars showing? I'm getting this and it is becoming very annoying. (I have not blown thru my 4g data limit).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rjscott2005:
Hi-

I regularly experience that situation but it's not exclusive to my SGS2. Someone can jump in and correct me but I'm not sure that the data (4G) icon and the cell signal (bars) need to be both showing in order for one of them to work. i.e. no bars means the cell coverage is low or non-existant but as long as you see 4G, 3G, or E you've got a data signal. Like I said, I think that's how it works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ClarkusJay:
I must say all of the factory issues were amended by rooting and running Juggernaut rom. Smooth, flawless, and infinitely open to modification (i.e, removal of bloatware). If youre comfortable doing this, i fully recommend it...

Bug or feature?

I'm too new to know whether or not this is a bug. My phone keeps scanning for wi-fi access points even while it is connected to a network.

Unable to start camera during call. Anyone else have this problem? or is my phone broken?

I think phones are like that now.. My G2x was like that too .I did read that 3rd party camera app works though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] olds2000:
Issue regarding constant scanning after you are connected .

Has anyone discovered a solution regarding the "constant" scanning in your wifi settings once you are connected to your wifi at home or any other hotspot ??? Mine always shows the phone scanning for more open signals even after I am connected. Is there an app or tweak that can stop the phone from doing so ? Does this ontop of system running apps that you cannot tweak (besides rooting) also drain the battery ???:mad:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Babyj303:
The only thing i can think of is changing wifiscaninterval in your buildprop to some thing like180 or higher less scanning i think default is every 90 seconds.

Sent from MY Juggernaut!!!:eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Xhyperion:
The camera flash when turning the phone off or rebooting is due to data corruption most likely due to fixing permissions in rom manager. Back up your apps in titanium only and reflash a rom. If you need to fix permissions due so in recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
Nope. Odined the stock ROM with a factory reset and rebooting directly after the install without even signing in. Still does it. Has to be a hardware defect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
ThIs thread will scare away those who are looking to switch haha. Personally I haven't had anyof the issues except for the lines and blobs which really aren't that big of a deal for me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Xhyperion:
Maybe it's the rom? Try out what I said before you disprove me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cire253:
So I have two issues.

1. My dialer tends to be unresponsive, for instance I'll press on a direct dial shortcut and nothing happens for almost 30seconds (from the homescreen) then same thing from my contacts list. Cleared the call log seemed to work but comes back.

2. My swipe freezes whenever I type the word buddy lol don't know why, I'll have to change the input method then go back to swipe.

Any help would be appreciated. The dialer is the most annoying it's a phone and I can't make a call lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
Happens on all roms sorry I should have made that clear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Xhyperion:
I disagree
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jtroye32:
I had the battery stuck at 100% deal and think I've found out how to prevent it. I've found when I disconnect the charger with the screen off it hasn't gotten stuck. Maybe it's just random, but hasn't gotten stuck since.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] _ice_:
That's a software issue,

root and superwipe and flash new rom.

I haven't had any of these issues except the lines and blobs problem. I think more than 50% T989 owners have the screen issues? doesn't bother me though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cassetti:
So I installed Phoenix Rom and clockwork 2.5 last year on my device. I have not done anything since then.

Last night my phone started to play music at full volume in the middle of the night. Since I couldn't find any programs running that are playing music, I pulled the battery. Ever since, it gets stuck at the phoneix boot flash animation (shows the animation for a while, vibrates, and re-runs the animation from the start)

I CAN access the clockwork recovery mod, but I'm afraid to do much because I don't want to lose my data. I was using a backup software but I think it is backing up to my internal sd, not my external sd card.

The only clockwork backup I performed was at one of the steps when flashing the Phoenix rom. Can I use any part of that backup to fix the issue? Should I simply flash the phone to a new rom and hope that my data stays?

No matter how long I let it sit, it stays at the flash animation of the phoenix rom logo.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
what backup program were you using?

it doesn't matter if its on the internal...hell i don't even have an external.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cassetti:
(By the way, I was using titanium backup, but i'm not sure if the data has been saved on my internal card or external sd card)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
So boot into recovery, mount your sdcard to your PC and check where it is...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
No need for a pc. Just use My Files to look for a folder labeled Titanium Backup.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
How do you do that without being able to boot into Android?

He's stuck in a bootloop...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cassetti:
Exactly, I'm stuck in a bootloop. I don't have the drivers on my work computer so I'll have to check when I get home. I think what I'm going to do is simply find a stable cooked rom and install a new one, hopefully I can find a recent titanium backup, but even then, I could never manage to find which packet I needed to backup text messages, so i know those will be lost.....

Sigh, what a pain in the @$$
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Duh, where's my sign? Your right. Was trying to speed read the post while on break.

Video they feel the opposite. Do you agree?

I think the still images are great.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
Good to know we beat the 4s. I never use the camcorder so didn't really care about that.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Techlvr:
I just recently used the video portion and I agree. The video quality is no where near the picture quality. The audio for video is really bad.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] FIX3000:
This phone impresses me every time I use it to take a photo and I'm not surprised to see it rated as one of the best. It takes photos that are just about as good as a Canon point and shoot that I own. Does a great job with staying true to the original color of what you're shooting too.

Videos are not as good as the photos, but come on.... it's a phone. The image sensor is tiny - I don't know how people expect great video from anything with a sensor this small. Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the video quality, considering this is a phone. Would you be able to shoot a wedding with it? No. Well.... you could, but there are better choices out there if you really want to shoot great video. Will it do a good job of capturing your buddies acting like idiots in reasonably good detail? You bet it will.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
i agree, i love the camera for still photos, it works great, but i was under the impression that i would be able to produce some great footage and audio at concerts and such, not the case however 1080p still goes a long way.

Hi all,

I recently switched from my Dinc2 to another phone which for now shall remain nameless , I listed and sold my phone on eBay and I had it rooted, I returned the phone to stock 2.2.1 via Jcase's guide on rootzwiki. I now am having trouble getting the phone to update, to what I believe the newest Verizon build is 2.3.4? Correct? The phone is deactivated but I have a working wifi connection. Any way this is possible? Via RUU, PG32IMG, other methods? Thanks in advance.

That's how
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] hcole623:
Where can I find the RUU/PG32IMG zip for 2.3.4, does one exist yet?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Just keep it at 2.3.3...or activate it long enough to accept the ota

I bet its the iPhone 4s lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] hcole623:
alright I'll leave it at 2.3.3, just worried cause the software information looked sketchy without any publisher info. here are some screens, this look normal?

Can you elaborate how it works for you over USB? Thanks.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
I don't understand your request, can you explain your ask? What USB?

Tethering enables you to share your cellular's data plan (3G/GPRS/etc) via WiFi.
[Focus General] superp32:
No you can tether via USB using a focus I found it on Google, you have to be interop unlocked to make it a WiFi " hotspot "
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Well, I am interop unlocked and I just tried. Data connection off.

In Diagnisis, enter *#7284# to access tethering menu.

With "Zune Sync" I get this message:

Connection not shared

There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again.

With "Modem, Tethered call" and " Modem, USB Diag." you don't get Zune to start/sync thus no internet on the phone.

Is there another way?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebas156:
I downloaded the new market a while ago (from internet, because my market took way too long to update automatically). But since the beginning, the market is reaally slow. Now I thought everyone had this, but I saw videos where they don't even have the 'loading' screen most of the time. I have to wait like 10+ seconds (sometimes even 30 seconds+) before it's done loading after clicking on the market, or browsing through the market.

I'm testing right now and it won't even load. It's loading for 2 minutes now. It's not an internet problem, everything else IS working (using 3G atm).

What do you guys suggest? Download the old market again? And where can I find it?

If it matters, I'm using the stock ROM with root, but I downloaded the market before I changed anything.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
Don't have a SGSII, but this trick works on my Atrix and SGS.

Uninstall updates for the market in settings to get you back to the previous version.

Then use Titanium Backup and freeze "market updater", and then you can use the previous version for as long as you want...

[G2 and Desire Z General] Lynchie87:
Basically,

I'm trying to limit my battery usage and I find alot of it is down to sync'ing of stuff such as emails, facebook widget, twitter widget and constantly having my hsdpa/3g switched on.

I am using Tasker to manipulate alot of what i do daily such as profiles for when im at work Mon-Fri - Silent my phone etc.

What I am interested in doing is turning off 3g/hsdpa and having it only periodically switch on just to run a data sync for all my apps and then deactivate after say 5 minutes after hour.

I have a profile setup to activate it when I launch the applications individually but I want something to automatically poll my email, sync my facebook/twitter widget and my accounts and then switch back off again.

Anybody have any ideas or suggestions please?

Cheers.
