Unfortunately, Snowflake (an avian addition to my household aviary :rolleyes::p ) has zinc poisoning (very common in.birds) and as of last night (my time) she is in the animal hospital getting treatment and will be until Fri/Sat.

Other than that Sparky and I are fine.

He's on a boat somewhere right now fishing with his brothers :rolleyes::rolleyes:;):cool:

Here's a pic of Snowflake. I got her in March

Here's hoping a nice speedy recovery for the newest member of your extended, avian family. I'm sure everyone here wishes Snowflake well. (Except for our feline members who are all drooling right now)!

What sort of fishing is Sparky and co. doing? Out to sea on a boat or in the wilderness somewhere?

[Off-topic] Dirk:
That's a very nice looking bird! How you ever get any sleep is a mystery though. Doesn't it get a bit noisy in the house?
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
My birds get about 11-12 (sometimes more) hours of sleep a night. (A cage cover is a great thing) Besides, I get between 3-6 hours of sleep a night.....

They are pretty loud in the morning but by the time I wake them up, I've been awake a few hours at least.

It's all good.... I'm a bird person and chirping is part of the package.

Plus....the cockatiels can whistle. Moon-Doggie can whistle several ways....it's pretty cool actually. :);)

Anything good/bad on your side of the pond?

Anyone want to swap Gs2 for Iphone 4

Im on Orange , but im unlocked, and rooted. if need be
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okmijnlp:
I doubt anyone will want to swap as the Sgs2 is a lot better. Your best bet will be to sell it on ebay, and then buy an Sgs2. Considering the iPhone 4 is more pricey than the Sgs2, you may have some change left over for some accessories. Best of luck.
[Atrix 4G General] knowingplague:
Hi guys,

Just want to share what happened and anyone is welcome to comment if you experienced the same.

I was on CM7 Beta this morning with faux's 0.2.0 1.3GHz. Decided to test the wifi CM7 release. Flashed rom and it went fine for awhile.

Then my atrix started to have sleep of death. Have to pull out the battery to boot. After boot same thing happen. Figured something must be wrong with my upgrade process, decided to restore my CM7 Beta backup.

Clean up the phone with fastboot, restored backup via CWM. Ta da...my atrix's screen is now inverted. When I swipe to the left, the screen moves to the right. Search button is now menu, home button is back and vice versa. Up and down movement is not affected. Cleaned up the phone again, and did another restore. Got fed up, I leave the phone for awhile.

Now, it's fixed by itself. No more inverted screen movement. Even after reboot it works fine. I have no idea what causes it.

Just sharing and if any mod thinks this post is unnecessary, please close it down.

Thanks for reading :)

Can we put together a list of known issues with this phone for those of us who are thinking of switching so we can see everything in one place instead of having to sort through all the mess to find the issues and resolutions. Thanks

This list is just a copy and paste of the main points listed in the first 5 pages so far to save you some reading. Its just a summary, nothing more.

- dead red pixel on some models

- some models has odd camera flash light, when powering off

- occasional errors when playing media on the sd card

- battery has stayed stuck at "100%"

- WiFi settings shows connected to the correct network but keeps scanning (Power saving mode problem.)

- lock screen locks up me sometimes

- wouldn't stay powered down while charging

- it takes quiet some time to charge up

- it's always warm even when not it use, but it gets super hot when charging

- screen lock bug

- take a pic, then tap the gallery button in the camera app, share to facebook, will not upload, says cannot locate pic. go to regular gallery, upload pic same way and it works fine.

- issue with the display staying on

- games freezing up and crashing after about 5- 10 mins of game play

- trouble with data when connected to wifi.

- wifi works but the 4g will not get internet access.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
so, off all the stuff i've read in the forum thus far:

the list is something like this:

- vertical lines on some models with specific box date

- dead red pixel on some models

- some models has odd camera flash light, when powering off

lags and some apps performance, or network speed stuff doesn't count

anything else missing?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
One thing to add- occasional errors when playing media on the sd card. I'm having a hell of a time with Doggcatcher & some music players saying that the media cannot be read.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
that's a good one

and it sounds very familiar, back in the SGS1 days, there was similar problem.

using another media player should avoid that problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
Yeah it works fine with PlayerPro, but I'm still trying to find another podcatcher that I like. I'm kinda pissed that I paid almost $7 for Doggcatcher & now it barely works >:|
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darmokk:
So far my only issue is that the battery has stayed stuck at "100%" twice now (only had the phone for a week obviously). Both times it was in the morning after the phone had charged all night, and then I take it with me for school/work. I used it for a few hours at school and it stayed at a 100% so I took it by T-mobile and they hadn't seen that before.

They did the same thing I did which was remove the battery and restart the phone. After that it read correctly (around 76% or something). Still I don't want to have to pull my battery every day after it gets a full charge. I'm going to see what it does tomorrow in the morning and go from there....anyone else have this issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KLR Rico:

Edit: I HATE typing on this freaking iPad sometimes!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] android4sunny:
I saw the battery stuck at 100% as well on mine. Another thing i noticed that i have the WiFi ON all the time. So while i'm in office it is connected to the WiFi and the phone sits in my pocket for about an hour or more before i actually use it (using another phone at work), so after i wanna use it and it shows the WiFi connected symbol but no connection. Go to WiFi settings and shows connected to the correct network but keeps scanning. Turn Off WiFi and turn it back ON and its running again. Although i did not noticed this issue at home. Is it that at home my phone is always on table and not in my pocket....is it something to do with my my pocket ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrdbuddy:
Power saving mode problem. When activated, it turns off gps, wifi, blue tooth etc.. (Whatever you choose) at specified battery level. However, when power is recharged past the set power saving mode point it doesn't turn these features back on. So annoying.

So when fully recharged, you have to go back and manually re-enable your gps, wifi, screen brightness etc..

This seems like a software issue, do the other brand gs2's have this problem?

**Also have the 100% battery bug.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darmokk:
My Galaxy S II wouldn't stay powered down while charging. Everytime I turned the device off while charging it would automatically power back on. I honestly wasn't sure if that was simply the way the phone was designed (which would be odd), but sure enough at the T-Mobile store today we opened up a brand new Galaxy to see if it would remain 'off' while charging. Sure enough, it could.

Long story short, I have the 100% battery malfunction, and an "unable to charge turned off" issue. Swapping out phones at T-mobile as we speak :) Another GSII btw, even with these annoying issues its a great phone. I think (hope) I just got a lemon?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
it's a software issue, not hardware

soon enough most of this bugs will be gone with our own proper versions of customized ROMs for this phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darmokk:
Yeah thats what I'd figure, but why can a normal GSII (the stock one we tried) power off and charge while mine can't? If it's just software and we all have the same software?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
not exactly, this version of SGS2 is completely different than the regular SGS2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darmokk:
No I mean, I have the T-mobile Galaxy S II bought locally at a T-mobile store a week ago. It will not charge while powered off (turns itself back on everytime).

I went back to the same T-mobile store today and we tested out a brand new T-mobile Galaxy S II and it was able to charge while powered off.

Both phones tested were T-mobile Galaxy S II's with identical hardware/software.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
ahh, that yes.

it's like the bug of the missing screen lock, the software will work properly until something is done to it, and goes crazy.

so that's probably what happened to the charging portion.

some feature/setting some where much have been activated by something else, and caused it to remain forever on

Problems

Hey guys, so i've had all 3 galaxy phones with t mobile since they were first introduced and by far this is the best; however i'm having some issues, first off the lock screen locks up me sometimes causing me to reboot the phone, second it take quiet some times to charge up, like i plugged it in at about 1 AM tonight it's now 2:24AM and it's only at 35% it was at 11% when i plugged it in. then it dies really quick, if i take it off the charger at 11AM by 7PM it will be at about 22% and that's with medium usage, a few phones calls, text messages and web browsing, very little game play (words with friends, hanging with friends) i always make sure i use the task manager to kill the apps after use. but i think the worst problem is the heat, it's always warm even when not it use, but it gets super hot when charging. sometimes scrolling between my home screens the page will become laggy or just freeze and not go to the next page, i'm using the stock TW launcher, i use a lot of widgets not sure if that is related to the problem. widgets i have running are (FB, youtube, shazam, slacker, winamp, yahoo finace, voice command, power savings, application monitor, news and weather, go weather, and agenda widget). also the blacks on my screen are really nice and dark but the whites seems off white, like when i go to my yahoo home page (web user agent) it's like off with, and my yahoo email app, the purple looks more lavender than purple. i don't know if all this is hardware related or software. i got this phone last Wednesday the date on the box is 9/30/2011. sorry if this is long winded, just wanted to paint a clear picture.

I have vertical lines on the screen and it is not normal for a high resolution phone like this one, anyone had luck getting a replacement from Samsung, and if I flash the new Deodexed T989 Rom will it solve the problem, thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mjpacheco:
Only two minor issues:

In circumstances I cannot repeat (but has happened twice) I have ended up on a blank screen lock screen/image without the screen lock 'stuff'. Side swipe gets me off this screen so no biggy.

4G and Wifi running concurrently. This is caused by being on WiFi and then runing an application that will only work on 4G (DRM driven apps, t-mobile account apps for example). Even when that application is no longer active (but has a process running in the background), both connection types appear to be active and depending how an application is coded controls what connection it uses. Fixed by killing the offending process.

All other issues noted in this thread I have not seen, so YMMV.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Splaktar:
I've seen this screen lock bug cause the screen to go crazy and select random things and menus on the demo phone at the T-Mobile store. How do you fix this?

If I wait for 15-20 seconds after unlocking it, I am finally able to use it. But it just does random strange stuff until then (even randomly changes settings like turning power saving on).
