[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adgre1:
fixed!

Fixed it! So here's what I did for anyone who gets into a similar problem. First off, I never had a problem getting into downloading mode, so this wasn't a full blown brick I guess. I couldn't get Odin to finish the transfer, always hung at the beginning. So after going a little crazy I just kept doing it over and over, couldn't hurt, and then I started moving to one of the different USB ports. I have 7 and just kept trying them. Finally on the very last one it worked. Full transfer and this Chinese brick thinks I'm in the UK sippin on tea and crumpets! It sounds crazy but just moving around to different USB's did it!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] QNBT:
Well, I can add up some more info about this case. I bought my Ace from China and i have never stumbled upon any problem flashing other firmwares.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 3sr3v3r:
So my transformer suffered a short fall and landed on the corner of the bezel. Thankfully the screen is fine and the bezel just got a little bent and popped out a bit. I made an RMA with Asus and I was just wondering if anyone knew what it would cost to replace the bezel?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] folgoratore:
a month ago i sent my tf to rma for a backlight problem, and i had your same problem too. when it came back from rma the bezel was brand new, and the sd-card slot was different too, more beautiful and more easy to use, but i had a b40 model so i think that the sd-card slot has been fixed in the following models. i hope that your bezel will be replaced too.

(sorry for my bad english)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eeisner:
i have the same problem on my transformer... i called up asus and put in an RMA.... the woman told me that the pric would be determined upon arrival to the repair facility and they wil not go through with repair until the charge is accepted... so if its too pricey they will return it as is no charge.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] reiter01:
I am not a developer or even smart. I poked around until I found something that worked for me. Use at your own risk.

I rooted and installed CM 7.0.2 in the past and was pretty happy. When 7.1.0 came out I took the leap. Everything was great except for GPS. GPS did not connect at all. Nothing I did could bring it back other than going back to stock rom. After much frustration and fighting I have it working.

Many people said to make changes to the /system/etc/gps.conf. The problem I had was S-ON was preventing it and nothing I could find explained a work-around. Sorry if I missed it.

I am going to explain what I did to get it going.

Phone details:

- My phone is rooted and CM7.1 installed.

- S-ON

- GPS don't work (even after 30 minutes of waiting)

- Clockwork is on sdcard as update.zip (not permanent)

- Phone is connected to the computer (with adb installed and working)

Proceedure:

1. Unzip the gps.conf.zip file (attached) to the root of your sdcard

2. Turn off the phone

3. Press and hold the volume down and then press the power button

4. Choose "recovery" from the menu and press power (phone will reboot into recovery)

5. Press and hold volume up and press the power button (this may take a few seconds)

6. Choose "Apply sdcard:update.zip" and press power button (assumes clockworkmod is on the sdcard and named update.zip)

7. Choose "mounts and storage" and click the bottom middle button (trackball)

8. While mount /system is selected press the trackball. (sinkinglow suggested that you might need to mount /sdcard as well)

9. Switch to the computer now

10. At a command prompt (DOS) in the folder where adb.exe is located type "adb shell"

11. Type "cd /system/etc" (if you cant get in then you did not mount /system properly)

12. Type "cp /sdcard/gps.conf ."

13. Switch back to the phone.

14. Click the trackball again to unmount /system.

15. Click the back arrow (bottom right)

16. Choose "reboot system now"

Once the phone is back up, you should be all good.

confused on where to go in cmd prompt i think theres a step missing
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ArturusD:
Try this

Instead of "cp /sdcard/gps.conf", use :

"cp /sdcard/gps.conf /system/etc"

Worked for me and GPS locks within 15 seconds now.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] reiter01:
Step 12 issue

I think what is being missed it the "." at the end of that comand. The "." is the second argument of the "cp" command and "." means the folder i'm currently in.

If you leave it out you are not telling the cp command where to put the file.

Sorry if I abandoned this post. It sat for weeks with no responses so I quit visiting. Hope it helped you guys out.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] captorofxxx:
Is there anyway that you could post a youtube video on this process.I am missing something

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

Maybe you could send me a pm.Then I could give you my contact info.we could go from there.I just really want to use cm7, but this GPS nonsense is keeping me from doing this.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] reiter01:
Assumptions

I made a list of assumptions at the top of the post.

- My phone is rooted and CM7.1 installed.

- S-ON (not required but if you have S-OFF you don't need these instructions)

- GPS don't work (even after 30 minutes of waiting)

- Clockwork is on sdcard as update.zip (not permanent because of S-ON)

- Phone is connected to the computer (with adb installed and working)

So you must have already rooted and installed clockwork as well as CM7. You must have the clockwork (update.zip) in the root of your sdcard. you must have ADB working on your computer and working with your phone (shows in devices list). If you have those then it should be following the steps. I am not currently using my slide and do not have equipment or and account to post videos so that would be difficult. if you can tell me where you get stuck I might be able to help.

Like mentioned before I really don't know what I'm doing. I just tried TONS of stuff till I got a feel for things and found a combination that worked for me.

If you are having issues with rooting or installing CM7 or clockwork then that is beyond this tutorial and there is lots of info out there for that.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] captorofxxx:
My phone is rooted and flashing CM7.1.0 (from CM 6.1.1) is simple.

1.) I can never get "adb shell" to "take to" (for lack of better words) the cmd prompt.I always an error message.Maybe I dont have adb installed and/or running right on my PC and/or phone any help would be awesome.

step # 10 is where I get stopped (in my tracks).

Try this out before you begin. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK

Simply start from where it says Windows and you should be good to go.

Did this fix just a moment ago and it worked like a charm. Thanks reiter01
[myTouch 3G Slide General] captorofxxx:
I wish someone would post a video or give (intricate-no detail left out) instructions on how to do this.I video would be the ticket.If I could follow someone or watch someone do it........
[myTouch 3G Slide General] boss2688:
yeah i think that was the problem i didnt see the ''." there and sorry if im being noob with adb i was never any good with cmd prompt, i prefer a GUI :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] reiter01:
ADB issues

There are countless posts and article about getting adb working. I use a Mac so it's never an issue for me. If you haven't already installed the USB drivers for your specific phone the first time you hook up then you will have issues. Windows will choose a generic driver that ADB can't use. You need to find instructions on removing the generic driver and install the right one.

I'm really glad some had had success with my little tutorial. I am sure there has to be easier ways but it's the best I could come up with.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sinkinglow:
Worked great

This worked great for me, my GPS now locks on within seconds. One note to add, I had to mount /system and /sdcard. Thank you for this fix.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] reiter01:
GUIless

@boss2688: I agree with having a GUI when available. I have no phone programming skills and so I didn't try that. I am not sure if it would work anyway because the S_ON would be in place blocking by the time the GUI shows up. On the other hand, I am sure that someone could make a zip with scripts etc to do what I am doing manually. I tried and failed to make a zip. I wanted to have it work just like you install google apps from clockwork.

@sinkinglow: Not sure why you would have to mount /sdcard. It should be mounted already at that point (I think). I no longer use my slide so I can't go back and test. Thanks for the tip. I will see if I can figure out how to edit the original post and add that as a possible step.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] WhoWhere:
a much easier way if you don't have experience with ADB would be to use Android Commander. Please see http://androidcommander.com/ (of course you would still need to mount the system from clockwork if you don't have S-OFF) hopefully this helps for those still having issues. ;)

Flash-a-holics (not to be mistaken with streakers lol) is a known issue affecting men and women here in XDA. This is an incurable addiction. Common symptoms include:

Anxiety (don't believe me? Try flashing a radio update lol)

Stress (not knowing what to do when your phone boots and is stuck at the HTC EVO 4G screen lol)

Nagging from the wife (cuz you spend more time tweaking your phone instead of helping around taking care of the baby)

In EXTREME cases, hypothetically speaking, if your house was on fire and you had a chance to retrieve one of the following items:

1) wedding album

2) expensive art piece

...you would write in:

3) my precious Evo lol

It's your charger. Mine works fine on stock AC charger, but if I were to use the AC/DC 2 in 1 charger on AC the capacitive screen stops responding (the same charger is fine when plugged into cars however).

Not unique to GS2 if you google "capacitive screen charger unresponsive", and no one really knows why.

May be USB cable Prob

Thanks for your reply.

I did find that with Samsung orginal charger there is no issue but if I do use an USB cable to charge from the stock I get the screen issue. The same USB cable while used on computer there is no ussue neither.

Just for info.

[Atrix 4G General] coolnow:
It honestly isn't much of an upgrade from the Atrix. Sure, the screen has magnificent deep colours, but it does have a lower resolution and makes everything look blurry to me after a while. I also heard screens like AMOLED kinda "burn out" and degrade after a while, which is worrying!

All in all, to me, it's like a more expensive version of the Atrix with a better screen. (More expensive as in it costs around £500 unlocked in the UK whereas Atrix is closer to £300 but anyway, i got the Atrix super cheap with a contract and could not be happier!)

Yeah nothing beats the GN, the thing is after having the atrix i dont want to ever go back to a phone without a fingerprint scanner! Hopefully Motorola now do an amazing phone with google too!
[Atrix 4G General] malfuncion:
WARNING PERSONAL OPINION AHEAD!

Wait for the Galaxy? Yeah, try again. I am waiting until after CES next year for anything upgrade worthy. Same thing I did last year when the Nexus 2 (S) came out. I waited a couple months for the Olympus to hit and I snatched her up in Feb. The Nexus Galaxy is "alright", but not what I expected really. I was expecting a "GENIUSPhone" not another smart one. Yea its stock Google, it gets the updates first, its pretty and curved, but so what? As long as I get CM9 on the Atrix I am good for quite some time (not coming up for true upgrade til this time next year). And to stray even further off topic, I am not even all that interested in a quadcore phone (which the NexG is not, however CES will showcase them), only the tablets. That's the whole reason I have waited for the Kal-El's to drop, I dont want a giant phone (dual core). I was also waiting for 4.0 to debut. I will honestly prob wait for the nexus next year and consider it. I just hate they release them so late in the year. By the time they hit AT&T bands there is already better hardware flooding the market.

OT: The SII is nice but really, meh. Give it a month and it will be forgoten about when the Galaxy is officially out. Give that 2.5 months and the Galaxy will be forgotten when CES rolls around. We are on the last leg of dual core being "top of line". Just wait a few months, it will be a standard feature then and quads will be bleeding edge.
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
I agree again! I LOVE my fingerprint scanner and am really sad Moto hasn't included it on more phones! Just the idea of fp scanner was cool before I ever bought the phone or knew if fp worked well, but now that I use it every day and know it works extremely well I'm gonna have a hard time "upgrading" to my next device.:( I wont even flash CM7 until it supports fp, and I'm a huge CM7 fan seeing the miracles it did for my Captivate. I wonder why Moto dropped the fp all together.? I kinda assumed after the Atrix we would see almost all phones with them, or at least a hand full of Motos.. I never thought it would just be discarded and maybe even because of "facial recognition". Boo.

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 PM ----------

Once more I would like to agree lol, yall are just reading my mind today. I would give up my Atrix for a GN if one fell out of the sky, but I am perfectly content with the Atrix and have no plans on upgrading before contract is up. (Unless its to leave ATTs ****ty ass service for Verizon who is the only carrier in my area to have voice/data all over my county.) I also couldn't care less about a quad-core phone but wouldn't carry anything less than a dual-core after getting use to it. (The dual-core IS a standard feature for current phones imo) The atrix does any and every thing I throw at it perfectly, no lag like with the Cap.. I dont think anybody will argue the #1 reason, best reason, and maybe even the only reason to upgrade from Atrix to GN is ICS. And personally I think in time the Atrix will see ICS, but thats just my speculation, of course nobody knows at this time. Bring on CES!

Aaaaaaargh GALAXY NEXUS NOW!!!!!!!!!
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
Can't seem to find if At&t uses the AWS1700 band or not....I think it is. From what I've been reading, the FCC document that has been posted online doesn't show the 2100 frequency but I've learned that the FCC doesn't test that frequency because it is the receive data frquency which they don't care about, just transmit levels. Every carrier has blocks of the 700mhz frequency but TMO has that locked down for now until the aquisition hearing is over in Feb? I think. LTE can run on 1700/2100 bands which the Galaxy Nexus has and they say LTE is optional depending on area....which we have in a few areas so far....so I consider it running HSPA+/LTE when it's released. BTW...The SCHI515 (Verizon version) hasn't made it to the FCC as of yet or hasn't been approved so the way it looks to me.....At&t and maybe T-Mo will launch before Verizon in the states, but that's just my impression from all the searching I've been doing.
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
T-Mobile uses 1700/2100 for their HSPA network. 1900 is their 2G/EDGE network. AT&T uses 850 for their HSPA network and 1900 for their 2G/EDGE network. LTE is strictly limited to the 700MHz and 1700 bands in North America. 1700 MHz belongs to T-Mobile. The 700 MHz band is owned by several companies including AT&T and Verizon. Even though they share the same 700 MHz band, they are incompatable with each other. Verizon uses Blocks A and C whereas AT&T uses block B. There are 2 Galaxy Nexus phones, an HSPA+ and an LTE version. The LTE version is a Verizon exclusive in the USA. SCH-I515 is the Verizon LTE version and the GT-I9250 is most likely the AT&T version as it doesn't support the 2100 band for T-Mobile.
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
TMo At&t and VZN all have blocks in the 700mhz range..lower blocks are more usable which the FCC is trying to have all carriers share the entire frequency which I don't think will happen. At&t does have 1700 and 2100 bands as well...

HTC Jetstream LTE specifications:

Networks: GSM, UMTS, HSPA+, LTE

Bands: GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz, UMTS 850, 1900, 2100 MHz, LTE 700 Mhz

They are using 2100mhz as the downstream from the tower which the FCC WILL NOT test because that would require going out to the tower. the 700 is the true LTE as they can send and receive within those blocks BUT Tmobile has the land covered. BTW...We lease a major of space and supply all the carriers with fiber to their towers. TMobile is going down and trying to convince the court they have no money make their service better so we will buy them, get them on our page (whether they like it or night) and start on the next biggest thing.

Depending the area and tower availbility we could provide this:

Frequencies used on the AT&T Network 850 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE 2G

1900 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE 2G

850 MHz UMTS/HSPA 3G

1900 MHz UMTS/HSPA 3G

700 MHz LTE 4G
[Atrix 4G General] edgeicator:
T-Mobile holds no licenses in the 700MHz spectrum. AT&T has no holdings in the 1700 or 2100 bands for UMTS. Those are strictly T-Mobile bands. T-Mobile pretty much owns all of the 1700 band for LTE.
[Atrix 4G General] DrunkFuX666:
I'm actually quite impressed with the s 2 super amoled screen is amazing not to mention the size and weight of the phone but more than anything else the reason why I want to change the atrix is because clearly the support for it is dying fast ... which is pretty ridiculous... and the few only developers working on it still all seem to be ready to jump on the nexus... which will leave us totally stranded... quite sad actually...

I would have wanted to get the nexus... but it was a pretty big disappointment when its specs are inferior to the s2 in every way apart from just the screen... and the nexus is just too damn big... fine the nexus has ics but soon enough so will the s2... and considering there are 10 million people with the s2 already there will be plenty of developement for quite a while... like the Galaxy S still has more development than the atrix...
