[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rustemy:
First of all, I love the work that Adam Outler has been doing for our Galaxy devices & implore everyone who has benefited from his work to contribute in any way possible. All that late night coffee - Those costs add up... ;)

My Tab was originally a factory stock GT-P1000 2.2 Vodafone Australia.

Sick of waiting for Vodafail to release an update, I tried running Adam's most recent "One Click" [Stock] 2.3.3 Heimdall One-Click [xxJQ1] which failed on the first try so I followed his instructions from the above thread and selected the "Flash Boot loaders option and tried flashing the second time. It seemed to go OK but after completing the second flash, my Tab booted into recovery mode and failed when trying to "Update filesystems...", "Wiping cache..." and "Updating application..." (See enclosed JPG)

I'm now left with Tab that boots fine through the animation but hangs on the "Samsung" screen. I waited for 20 or so minutes the first time thinking that it was doing some rebuilding in the background but it just hangs there after every reboot... :confused:

I've tried flashing back to stock but I haven't had any success there either. In fact, I had the scary "brick" icon a few times before using Adam's "One Click Unbrick" to return the normal download mode. I've since returned to Adam's 2.3.3 but stuck at the "Samsung"screen still.

I've flashed my Galaxy S a few times so I'm not a complete noob but a step by step on how to restore my Tab with any working ROM would be much appreciated...

(I know there is a similar thread in the "Galaxy Tab Android Development" section but I'm not allowed to post there...)
[Motorola Photon 4G] ithink2020:
Just got my Photon last night. I've noticed at home (in CB close to downtown), It says I'm connected to 4G!!!. Getting ~5Mbs download speeds.

Anyone else in Omaha seeing this. I didn't think Omaha had 4G...
[Motorola Photon 4G] dustbuckets:
We have 4G, but only overflow from CB in a small area of downtown Omaha, about a mile radius around 114th and Dodge (Sprint Store) and the new baseball field in Sarpy County (Sprint Sponsorship). No plans to expand and no sympathy for people with 4G phones and no 4G.

Nothing against CB, but who in the world made that decision over Omaha!!???!!!:D
[Motorola Photon 4G] dljohnson:
I was actually at the sprint store last week and the guy I talked to said Omaha is number 3 on the list to get 4G next. LTE anyways!!!!

Take it as you will but that is what he said and he was very confident with his answer.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PowerMan572:
Tried loading a custom ROM, didn't work and now stuck at the Sprint logo screen. I created a backup of my current ROM but now when I login to clockworkmod and try to restore won't work.

So I am in Odin, turned on download mode on the Epic 4G Touch, but how do I install the stock ROM using Odin? I searched Google, can't find the files.

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poppygt:
Look in the develoment section for Odin Completely Stock EG30 or something to that effect. I tried it and it's really easy and fast. Takes longer to download it than flash it and be up and running again. Remember to factory reset after Odin finishes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
Looks like you didn't follow the instructions for installing a rom......

Do what the above post says. Should allow you to get cwm back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 510jungleboy:
Follow this instruction, it should get you back to stock with no problem...

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] n0de:
Forgive me if this is not the correct 'area' to post to. I can't seem to find anything at all in regards to what I need/want. Basically, I've got BackTrack5 running on my Sidekick 4g, but the current wireless driver that's installed on the phone does not support monitor mode / packet injection. I was under the impression that most new devices would have an updated driver for the wireless device that would in fact support this. I can't seem to dig up any information on the web or my phone itself to tell me what hardware device it's using. Does anyone know what driver it's using or perhaps know where to get an updated driver package so I can try to get this working? Has anyone out there put BT5 ARM on their Sidekick?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Undeadk9:
This is the wrong section.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] n0de:
Where would this type of inquiry go? I've scoured the forums for similar threads, but have found nothing related.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Undeadk9:
General section. Plus backtrack is very experimental on phone. With my experience is doesnt work well.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
It's a broadcom 4329, the easiest way to find that out was to look at the kernel config from samsung's source, otherwise you could have looked at /system/etc/wifi/

Broadcom cards are notoriously difficult to get working, especially with packet injection. The chances that you are going to get packet injection working are worse than your chances of getting official GB on this phone.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] The Pope of Dope:
This topic has been beaten to death. Broadcom basically neuters wireless chips that go into phones so although the driver may allow the functionality for this particular brand of chip it lacks the physical capability.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Want to get a small survey. Do you guys leave 4G on all day and only 4G, no JuiceDefender or radio tricks and get good battery?

Post your results please!

I use Setcpu for screen off and underclock to 1.35 GHz and average 12 hours allowing 4g to stay on throughout my day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KaneHusky:
I've been getting about the same battery length whether I'm on 4G only or WiFi+EDGE - which is around 6-8 hours. This is without additional battery-saving techniques.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gdmlaz:
i get around 8-9 hours if i leave 4g on....... without it 12+

what settings do you have on setcpu i have it downloaded but i haven't used it on this phones tips will help :P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Yes 4G on, no JD help, no wifi relying. My buddy's Droid bonic has the extended 2880 mah battery and I'm darn jealous, keeps LTE on and lasts a day streaming google music all day. This is obviously the perfect setting we all want, fast 4G, sync on, blistering powerhouse, no compromise usage.

I've got a profile during screen off for 384mhz/192 powersave

Main is 1350/192 ondemand. Phone remains smooth and usable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 72chevy2k2:
I am amazed with this phones battery life. I am coming from a droid incredible and that thing died every 20 min. I am a light user and stock as you can get, not even rooted. (yet) This phone will last me about two days on one charge.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] wingtytn:
i leave my phone in 4g and wifi all day and i get batt plus for a good 4 hrs im listen to mp3 player threw bluetooth... i will say i rooted my device and removed most of tmobiles apps apps that i dont use that are always running
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
I'm really shock today, picked up an exchange yesterday and today I'm getting over 15hrs with 4G on and fully stock and I still have 33% left. This is with a few calls, music streaming and texting.

First unit I would get around 8-10hrs.

So yeah, I'm a happy camper, lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
That's really good and your initial numbers are more in line with the majority of the members here. I wonder if its ether phone itself or the battery. :-T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rodolfo7171:
im surprised as well i leave everything on and the phone is still alive all day. have 4g on, sync, stream, web, text, couple calls, screen brightness set to automatic.

i think if i do some battery saving techniques i could push 2 days/

been on for 13 hours and still have 26%.

way better than the 8 - 10 hour max on my vibrant.

havent had to worry about charging my phone on at all
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
What was your reason for exchanging?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KaneHusky:
Wow, there has to be some issue causing some of us to only get 8 hours out of a battery and others getting 13+. Starting to make me wonder if I have a bad one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kabuk1:
I keep 4g on & I get good battery life too. I don't underclock or even mess with the CPU at all either.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] noah1017:
im starting to wonder if I got one with a really good battery, ill post screens tomorrow but since I bought the phone like 3 weeks ago I have Never turned off 4g. im on wifi at home but where I work for 8 or more hours in on 4g. i leave wifi on anyway and i dont use juice defender or any power saving modes, i tend to use full brightness, and i play with my phone (checking phandroid and cnet/videos, rev3 etc...) whenever I'm not in a sale.

all of that and my battery always lasts more than 12 to 15 hours.

I will charge tonight and post screens either as soon as I remeber when on low battery.

is anyone else getting great battery life?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeb85:
Are u talking high use or normal use cause with high use i get about 7 or 8 hours with normal use about 12 to 14 and minimal use easily 24 to 30 hours
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] noah1017:
i only know my own definitions of high and low use I guess but id estimate an average of being touched at least 60% of every hour, up to 90% at work and when I'm bugging my fiance for playing with my phone too much at home its up to 100 lol

and at least once a day I flash something and reboot twice and run sd maid and i play some games like shadowgunner, samurai vengeance 2 and i love dragon fly :-D

I'm rooted btw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Psh, this damn thing burns through 8% an hour on idle in an area with full bars reception. Low middle high usage? My zero usage is about 10-12 hours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] clninja:
I just got my sgs2 yesterday

Today i got 14h and still have 15% left with 4g on all day, texting, galaxy voice commands, Bluetooth and light browsing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TylerMF:
Just my two cents, but I leave my 4g on all the time. I literally never turn it off and I get a full days (moderate) use out of my SGS II. I don't know how, but this is BY FAR the very best battery life i've ever gotten out of an Android; and I've owned quite a few out them by this point (since the original hero). I know it's battery is very large for an oem/ as it comes battery and for me I can really tell.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kris33074:
Amazing battery life on a single charge

I'm getting 13+ hours with 4G on all day. Simply amazing battery life.

My phone is rooted with Teshxx streamlined ROM loaded, with no additional power saving apps of features running.

I'm in an area with amazing 4G signal, my phone never switches to 3G/Edge.

It is possible your mileage may vary if the phone is switching constantly between the two.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
I was having random shutdowns, like 10 a day. So far no problem with this second one.

My first one I did only get around 8-12hrs, but I hadn't mess with my apps.

This time around I set up the apps the refresh themselves to do it every 4hrs (like Facebook, tweeter, weather bug, etc)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
There's absolutely no way I can top 12 hours idle with any mix of techniques with 4G on. :-\

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cpbeats:
I've tried everything on this site to root and get cwm to install custom roms. I've done this with my inspire and infuse but the sgs2 is currently winning the battle.

I have the drivers installed and I know how to boot into download mode but for some reason odin will not work for me. I can't get the yellow bar to come up for me to install the pda file. I like the phone but not being able to flash roms is gonna suck.

If anyone could help that would be great. I've tried all the methods on here and no success. Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dayv:
Put your phone into download mode and connect to you computer, then go to to device management either through settings or by right clicking on my computer then properties.

There look through the USB devices on your computer, you should find this listed somewhere there

Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composit Device

If the driver is set up correctly.

If you can't find the above then uninstall any thing that is any kind of a Samsung mobile device, unplug your phone and uninstall and reinstall Samsung kies.

If you do find the above, unplug your phone, make sure the version of Odin you have is 1.82 or higher.

Then do the following in the exact order

1. Reboot your computer

2. Start Odin

3. Put your phone into download mode and connect to your computer - and hopefully within 10 to 15 seconds Odin should recognize your phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
ODIN Flash

This should fix the problem:

Get the Samsung Unified USB driver here: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13196871580881

Be sure to uninstall kies if it's installed and uninstall any other samsung usb driver.

Then reboot windows before installing the new unified samsung drivers.

After installation of the new usb drivers reboot windows before connecting the usb cable into the phone.

Plugging in the original samsung usb cable into a different usb port in the

back of the computer is also a good thing to try as Dungeon47 was saying.

Good Luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dungeon47:
Make sure you are using a USB directly connected to your motherboard. Make sure you are using an official Samsung or Blackberry micro USB cable. If that doesn't help, try another port.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cpbeats:
Ok thanks i'm still in the process of trying and doing what y'all suggested. I will let y'all know if it works.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cpbeats:
Well I got superuser now but still unsuccessful in flashing rom.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tejones36:
Did you try starting Odin first, and plugging your phone in afterwards? That hung me up for a little bit. (I'm assuming you reinstalled Kies as suggested).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cpbeats:
Yeah I got root but when I try to flash a rom I'm unsuccessful. Trial and error. Ill get it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Would it be possible to manipulate the action buttons to stay lit up while we're in CWM? It's difficult to see the buttons while in CWM and if we could get them to do an always on I think that would absolutely ROCK. Any thoughts?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffyv2:
First this is in the wrong section

Secound...just use the volume rocker n the sleep button
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Oops about posting in the wrong section, I guess I should have put it in the general thread.

I do use the rocker and it doesn't light up the action buttons on the bottom while I'm in CWM.

MODS- Could you please move this to General. TIA
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffyv2:
I ment like use the sleep/power button to make a selection
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
I do but again, I would like to have the action buttons lit up and I want to know if it's possible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
Did u know that our latest cwm doesnt use power button for selections? Home button does. So yeah i agree with op
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Yeah...+1 on using the capacitive buttons to move and select.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
FYI - Hate to keep a thread going in wrong section but if you guys use the vol up key and press it several times... some say 20+ but I did not have to do it that long it will activate the power button. This will eliminate the need for using the capacitive buttons.. This is in the newest CWM I think its .7
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Just want to ask how to remove the beats mod that i installed, it made my phone go into bootloop mode.
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
Just restore your back up and if you didn't back up then refresh your previous ROM and that will remove the mod
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
It worked like you said, thanks... how about mod for showing 4g instead of H on tmobile any chance you know any?
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
ya look at my freinds list for fallenangle in look at his signature for it he has a good one

Here
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
Thanks, i already downloaded the file but still looking for a good battery mod for 3.6.2 rom. She said to flash the battery mod first then the 4g mod last. Thanks again friend
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
I cannot suggest any battery mods customer haven't found any that display the correct percentage. I've been having bad luck with those lately sorry
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
I used the all in one that a fellow xda member told me and its been working ok, LCD battery and icon for 4g and with power menu also.
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
I have the all in one I choose not to install. I think there is something in the uot that reacts with my device. Ex: fully charged, green light, and battery level is at 99. Percentage will say powersaver on at 10%. After I reboot, its back up to 40 percent.
[HTC Sensation] jhobert:
It happened to me once green light at 99%. But I just ignored it lol and let it drain then charge to full shows 100% now. Now I used 3.6.3 with bricked 0.91 so far no issues whatsoever on signal and apps. Keeping my fingers crossed. Now I'm looking for a mod to add the Dolby and srs on the music app volume is too low without the headset
[HTC Sensation] ITuser07:
I installed a extended toggles zip and it removed my status bar, how do I remove this mod to get my status bar back?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Restore the nandroid backup you made.

Didn't make a backup?

Why not?

Your only other option is to re-flash the ROM.

:)
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Best Solution in My opinion::

Flash the same ROM without wipe... :)
[HTC Sensation] SamsungGalaxyFan:
how do you refresh a ROM? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] Itsakash:
Flash Rom again without wiping anything
[HTC Sensation] xdacalvien:
some of the mod can be flash back to STOCK...Only I found is battery % Mod got this option.

Other, need reflash ROM....

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Bowsa2511:
Pulse is a gorgeous application, but I think Engadget's one of those sites that deserves it's own app. I'm not saying this due to differences in formatting, but the ease of access to the comments which are the heart of the Article.
