[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] The_Biz:
Maybe the game needs an update because of our hardware or screen size? I'd say that's more likely the problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jester450:
Wow. All this for a game. The phone must be crap and you should return it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OuncE718:
The issue won't get addressed if you post here. You have to post to the dev of the app you are having the issue with. As new hardware comes out there will always be this issue of incompatibility until the dev optimize their apps to work on the newer hardware. This issue is nothing new with Android and I think ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) should also help fix this issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ap77:
There is nothing new about the hardware in this phone, including the GPU -- it's been out and in use for some time.

OP: you're going to get a lot of hysterical fanboy trolling about how their phone is "completely fine" and "lag free." That's the nature of this particular forum. The real issue is that Samsung released this phone with zero optimization and compared to the other SGS2 models, this one is a complete joke in terms of performance -- except with respect to data speed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OuncE718:
I hope I'm not the fan boy you are referring to. I never said this phone does not have its share of issues. Every phone has issues. Our issues are mainly software based. Why our phone isn't as optimized as the other Galaxy S II's who knows? Maybe Samsung was racing to compete with the Amaze? Idk. We do have a different combination of hardware that is new. 4.52 inch screen and a 1.5ghz processor. The other variants all share the 1.2ghz Exynos processor. The closet variant we have is the Sprint version which shares our screen, but not our processor and gpu. The combination we have can definitely be the cause and it should and will be fixed once Samsung is aware of these issues. Call Samsung or T-Mobile. They'll make note of the issue and try and get it fixed asap.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ap77:
No, I wasn't really referring to you (although I realize I quoted you). More like the comments like this: "If your your just looking to play Doodle Jump.. then go buy an iPhone, you'll be happy."

Sadly, though, I don't think Samsung gives a **** if their past performance is any guide. We'll be left on our own to do any and all optimizations.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] OuncE718:
I hope they don't do that this time around. That would be real f*cked up. I think they might of spit this phone out fast to compete with the Amaze. The issues are unacceptable, but at the end of the day I'm glad its just software based vs the hardware issues on the Amaze (overheating and death grip). If enough people complain then it will get fixed. I sometimes wonder if the programmers, devs etc actually test out the software/hardware they produce on a day to day basis to make sure the kinks are fixed.

I'm sorry but I'm under clocked at the moment and asked a Co worker to try the game out . he said it ran fine and then proceeded to remind me that I was under clocked. I am using the adrenaline mod and the super charged mod but I'm not sure those are making a real difference. This is just my findings

Erm I have a slight problem with all the MIUI ROMs I've installed on my phone. I keep getting a pop-up saying the process "android.process.media" has stopped unexpectedly. It gives the option of "Force Close" and "Report". This happens whenever I try to download something. I have searched all over the forums and have found no results. Is there any way to fix it?

[Droid 2 Global General] solo0590:
Hey there,

I been reading other sites and have read that it is not possible to use a droid global on tmobile, but I been seeing a lot of posts here with people who have done it, for me it would be a whole lot cheaper to be able to use my droid 2global on tmobile, so if anuyone would be so kind as to let me know where I could find steps on how to do it, or any form of directions I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you
[Droid 2 Global General] Buckaru11:
Look for the d2g on at&t the use the same radio type (gsm) you just won't get 3G from my understanding.
[Droid 2 Global General] ElectroBeijing:
I've been wondering this too. I kinda like the D2G and they're getting really cheap on Craiglist, so I thought about getting one to use on Simple Mobile, but I don't want to get one if I cant use it at all. 2G speeds are fine with me, I just want service!
[Droid 2 Global General] tennyleaz:
Tmobile is good on D2G. I'm using it now, with CM7 and the new band hack.

My father has a Galaxy SCL and i was looking for a ROM for him and i showed that. A tweak that add some widget in statut bar (in samsung ROM, not CM).

I'm not a dev i just show that and if a devlopper know how modify it to work on our G3 it would be great.

My Battery may be going bad it's been holding weird charges lately. So it dies while its plugged in and charging and I'm in boot loop hell. I have my texts and call logs backed up with SMS+ so I know I only lost a few and my last full CWM back up was like 5 or 6 weeks ago, but to make things easier..

Is there any way I can recover some apps or texts from the backup I made after my files were corrupted? I am assuming it doesn't corrupt every last thing. Any help would be appreciated. I searched didn't find anything..
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
You can use Titanium backup and after getting your system stable again, ONLY restore data to those apps that you absolutely have to have data for and then only 1 at a time and make sure they work. If they FC, clear data and count it as lost. You should be able to recover some databases like if you use memo, or game data, stuff like that. If you can do without the data, like resetting up your email and passwords, do it. It will save you a headache.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugothakd:
You can extract stuff out of a cwm backup. Like apps, data, system stuff, etc. There's a guide in development

[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
All Desire S users should know about the infamous error message:

this is the so called eMMC fried chip, etc.. This is actually the "cache" partition being corrupted..

I myself have already received this error NUMEROUS times when tinkering with my phone..

The fix..?

Here's my method:

Based on experience: Even the RUUs will tell you to unplug your battery for 3secs if RUU had some problem.

Some additional info:

And...

Also..
[HTC Desire S] Eclipse_Droid:
cheers for this info. I myself have experienced this too after flashing new radio, but this is the message u also get when the partition table gets corrupted.

If that is the case then the method u provided will work, but fried emmc = no fix;)
[HTC Desire S] TimMun:
Had the same problem, but I couldnt even get into recovery.

This helped for me:
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
What you've done is exactly the same of my instruction on how to flash a recovery. That's another way as it is automatic. You just have to make sure your .zip passes the security check of bootloader if your on s-on, as far as i know.

I ran the 1st method when I've changed and tested some roms (on 2.3.3) without knowing that this was a possibility to resolve this problem.

or maybe u never got these error-magic-infamous-$60costs-strings, lol.

well, im kidding. xD
[HTC Desire S] zilexa:
How do you format to ext4?

The steps don't explain how I can do this. I already have pushed Recovery using the post #3 method, and I formatted and reset everything. But then Recovery doesn't allow me to reboot or turn off the phone (I get a black screen with a pictogram and then it goes back to Recovery).

So I still have to format to ext4 but how?

BTW I tried RUU 1.47 that worked, then I wanted to do RUU 2.10 and the phone hangs at white screen with green HTC. Thats how I ended up here in this topic trying to revive my girlfriends phone :S

So I can access Recovery now, and I reset everything. But still have the White screen. Also RUU can't find the phone, I suppose because the phone hangs at the white screen... any help is DEEPLY appreciated!

EDIT:

I installed this prerooted ROM (deodexed version cos people complained about issues with odex version):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1287797

And now I have Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0 fully working. Only it's not the newest rom (version .............4 instead of .............5) and it has old Market but it's better then having Android 2.3.3 and Sense 2.1 :)

IIf you however have a truly Kentucky fried chip, as with most hardware errors, you'll need a hardware replacement. In this case, the chip. But only when all else has failed.

[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
I answered this exact question yesterday. Try searching.
[HTC Desire S] |=>AmuzZ<=|:
is this the answer u are talking about

Boot to bootloader (power on while pressing VolDown).

Select FASTBOOT with volume buttons.

Press Power.

Connect USB. See that it says "fastboot usb".

Check that you can see the phone in fastboot mode ("fastboot devices" shows a device). If not - install fastboot drivers.

Run RUU.

well done all that too but doesn work

also tired fastboot devices yes i do get my device but wen i install the RUU it jus gets stuck on rebooting bootloader.

on a NOTE: wen i but into bootloader and scroll down to the option reboot bootloader and i select it my phone totally freezes nothin happen till i remove the battery.

---------- Post added at 10:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

one more thing and my bootloader i don see on the top written

**LOCKED**

or

**UNLOCKED**

thats weird
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
You can try removing and reinserting the battery when "rebooting to bootloader" shows in RUU, and booting to bootloader manually (with VolDown+Power), see if it helps.
[HTC Desire S] |=>AmuzZ<=|:
well i did that also tried removing the battery while it said rebooting bootloader i removed the battery but the phone was still on till i unpluged the usb phone turned of i loaded the bootloader again and repluged the usb after some time it gave me a connection error ...

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------

ok i don now some how the xtracted file from the ruu i put it in the sdcard and it got detected it cked everythin n brot me do you want to start update (vol up) yes (vol down) no i pressed vol up and it started but it now stuck on bootloader updating

http://s16.postimage.org/d4ny1xaph/IMAG0106.jpg
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
Your bootloader partition is also corrupted.

That means, your phone is dead.
[HTC Desire S] |=>AmuzZ<=|:
so theres nothin i can do?
[HTC Desire S] TheOldMonk:
can't he just try re-flashing his HBOOT/bootloader? shouldn't tht fix his prob? maybe give him a chance to re-flash an RUU?

ok..idk but this right here of how to s-ON and install an RUU removing just everything..revolutionary, CWM..u name it; just like a real stock phone :D

Hope this helps.. :)
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
I see, you need a hand to walk you through the most basic operations on the phone, but suddenly you feel yourself smart enough to comment. Wow. As I wrote - let's all feel smart today, eh?

Flashing RUU actually FLASHES THE BOOTLOADER, somewhere between FLASHING ALL OF PHONE'S PARTITIONS. So, instead of flashing the bootloader as a part of RUU, you're suggesting him to flash the bootloader separately, in exactly the same way, yes? And that will help him how exactly? By failing the signature check, because his phone is S-ON?

Do your homework and try understanding something before posting.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Sorry but that is just not true...

Hey man what logic makes you think that flashing an EUROPEAN RUU while you live and probably bought your phone in Tansania will solve your problem?

Connect the phone to a PC (you have to setup fastboot command and have the HTC drivers installed also - check the guide in my signature)

then open command prompt /cmd/ on your PC and type:

fastboot getvar version-main

the output will be a number like 1.28.401.1

Search in the RUU thread for the one with the same number, or at least the same third group (like 401 in the example). Download and flash this and hopefully if the battery pull didn't destroyed your eMMC your phone will be stock again.

Also as additional verification you can check the CID also:

fastboot getvar cidnum

If you are branded the output will contain something like T-MOB... or VODAF...

The procedure to revert to stock is described in details in the other guide in my signature (about the eMMC issue) you may want to read that too.

Good luck
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
Sorry, but I'm afraid you have no idea what you're writing about. I know far more about MT4G, but DS isn't quite different.

1) There are no HW differences in Desire S, it's a single phone all over the world. The only differences are SW and branding (CID). So it doesn't matter where he bought the phone and where he lives.

2) Flashing ABSOLUTELY ANY RUU will work if the phone is SuperCID (unluckily, Desire S is the only phone of the DHD/DS/DZ/G2/MT4G series (all being very similar platform) that wasn't covered by gfree, so it has no SuperCID). But goldcard has the same effect, allowing flashing any RUU over any CID. Both aren't the case here - the guy has correct RUU for his CID, otherwise he wouldn't be able to flash it.

3) When RUU hangs on updating any partition during the update itself - it's effectively the same as if it stopped and wrote the ill-famous "Fail-PU". It means that the RUU has already performed all the checks and the actual update started, but the NAND couldn't be written past some point.

Moreover, look at this:

This alone should have explained you that the problem is far from being wrong RUU.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Hahaha please go to the MT4G forums

We do not need expert like you around.

Nearly all the thanks in my thanks meter is from solving problems with bricked Desire S devices. If you had made the effort to check the linked guides you would have known that.

Parsing the bootloader comes when you are using a wrong RUU man, so GTFO with your clever and helpful "you have bricked your phone irreversible for ever and ever" advices :)

Haha lol expert !
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
"Parsing the bootloader" never happens, I guess you're blind or can't read the man's screen.

"Parsing the ZIP" happens when someone decides to use the P****.ZIP method instead of direct .EXE or fastboot oem RUU flash. BTW, on MT4G it's the only way to flash - since there's no RUU.exe in existence. Knowing other phones helps.

By the way, if you could actually read my post above, you'd know why it stands on "Updating". When updating HBOOT, it needs to reboot itself - that's the first thing that happens when flashing P****.ZIP RUU. Since the phone can't execute "reboot bootloader" - it gets stuck, it can't continue the flash.

Now, instead of being &^%@&#^%$ like you are, you could have suggested to use fastboot oem rebootruu. Maybe that would be more useful than bad-mouthing.
