[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] paulshields:
That's weird. I just created a .nomedia file and it showed up fine. Let's use the Note's s-pen thingy to show what I mean :).

How are you creating the .nomedia file? I just used

echo "" >.nomedia

.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Beards:
I'll give it a go... purely to see what happens.

I don't like using additional Apps to do this ~ hence why I normally just use a .media file instead.

It will however allow me to hide the files until I sort this issue out.

EDITED: I've just come across 'Hide It Pro' which also does this and has excellent comments.

Yes, I can see it is working for you.... As mentioned above, I'll try a Factory Reset later tonight and try again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Beards:
Well, I've done a Factory Reset and I don't know what was causing the issue but everything is now just fine.

Obviously an App had interfered with how the OS was handling hidden files.

Thankfully it happened in less than a week of running the Note.

Now I need to rebuild my App list slowly and see if any one of them recreates the problem... However, thinking about it I didn't enable show hidden files until after a few days of using the Note and I never checked after doing so that it did infact enable them. As such the problem App may have stopped hidden files from being deactivated.

Hey guys trying to root the my vibrant right now and I d/led and installed the samsung usb drivers, but when I plugged my phone into the pc, it is unable to detect the usb mass storage. I continued to root and ran the one click as administrator and clicked root. The command screen then proceeds to tell me that the phone will reboot in recovery; however, there is absolutely no response from my phone.

Is the phone suppose to reboot itself into recovery?

Any help is appreciated!!

Thank you for sharing that rault18,

Do you live in a HSPA+ area for AT&T?

I'm wondering if the phone works with AT&T's HSPA+
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iloveandroid16:
Why would anyone want AT&T ? They suck.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benegessrit:
I agree completely :)

I am curios though, if the phone supports the frequencies, shouldn't it get HSPA+ speeds?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iloveandroid16:
I dont think do, I believe its bands run at a different frequencies.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1_enthusiast:
their S2 is way better then ours :( screen is more vibrant and processor is truely lag free :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MisterEdF:
My ATT phone supports 4G frequencies and I have ATT at the moment but I am lucky to get 1MBps because ATTs network sucks in most large sities. The fact HE didn't get those speeds doesn't mean someone else won't. Speed testing is a VERY inexact science. Someone here on XDA posted ~6MBps speeds with the T989 on AT&T.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
that's probably why they went with LTE on the skyrocket model instead of HSPA+
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rault18:
I didn't reach more than 1.3 mbps regardless where I was at...same speeds that I reached with my iPhone..at the same spots I was reaching 5mbps

I don't think higher speeds than 3g can be achieved, however it beats having edge like it usually happens when we use one of their phones
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rault18:
Its more of a test as a lot of people was wondering in my case that rocks because i'm from Peru so when I go visit I don't have ****y edge. Same with Europe and Canada..not sure about Asia tho

Try restoring a backup or look at one of those FULL stock GB Nvflash images.

It will erase all partitions, set them back up, format, and flash the official GB rom. Fully stock 100%.

Or download the froyo nandroid, then back to a different custom.

Radio settings aren't touchable via normal flashing means so its just something carrying over.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Again, leads me to believe system problems with your carrier. Also if you search on Google some roms have problems with sms after sending one or two. Has nothing at all to do with you trying my experimental rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ya I hear ya, but when I had a few guys PM me after I was in your thread (the first time I've ever lost signal from flashing a rom) I've done a ton of research and usually the thing that fixes it is entering the smsc# and a reboot and a factory hard set but, none of that has worked for me or anyone in this thread just yet. I still need to put my SIM card in someone else's phone and see what happens. Either way I'm not entirely blaming your rom, just coincidence that we all have the same problem after your rom was flashed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
What you should be doing is put a sim card from another carrier in your phone and see how that works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
from another carrier, what do you mean? Like at&t? Wouldn't that just eliminate my 4G connection making me able to send a text, it is only 4g that I can't send a text. do sprint or verizon have sim cards... sorry I've only been with T-Mobile, so I don't mess with other carriers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Text are usually sent on the cell signal, not the data signal. That is why even with no data connection or phones with no data sms texts can still be sent. If your carrier is using PS (packet data) rather than CS (carrier signal) to send text messages then the problem is either an APN issue or they are having problems with their data gateway. Most carriers use the CS method, so what type of data connection you have is meaningless in regards to text messages.

Edit: Also, once the phone is connected to data it could care less whether it is using 2G, 3G or TMO's phoney 4G. The radio just sends whatever signals through to the cell system's data gateway. It doesn't do different things with your data based on the type of data connection.

What you need to do is to run adb in a command window and save the logcat while the sms you want to send is not sending. Then we can see why the sms is refusing to send.

Open a command window on your computer and type

adb logcat >logcat.txt

Don't hit enter yet.

Then just before trying to send the text on your phone hit enter and press send on text. Wait a minute or two for text to fail and type CTRL-C to stop logcat. Then send me the logcat.txt file. I can try to see why the sms refuses to send.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Are you using the July baseband? Are you making sure the RIL (lge-ril.so) is the one matched to your baseband? Not sure that is the issue but sure would not hurt to try. Here is the RIL built for that baseband. If your rom is properly identified as a P999 then you can use GetRil from the market to do the RIL replacement for you. I suggest going to airplane mode before running GetRil to prevent a spontaneous reboot. Then reboot and after reboot turn your radio back on. This might not help but worth a shot.

The error is your logcat is just a code 500 ("GENERIC_FAILURE") so hard to pinpoint what is actually causing the sms to fail.

Also, I notice in the logcat a lot of programs trying get permissions, etc. Have you tried to send sms on a clean rom before installing other programs?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I'm on the stock firmware stock everything no root anymore even... Ya on the july baseband, I'll try the ril thing

(obviously can not write to the sytem with out root hahaha, hold on once again.)

so I rooted, rebooted the phone

went to the getril application

accepted SU permissions

it said I didn't have the correct ril

selcted to correct the ril issue and it said it worked and that they matched now

but still no go.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
@mt3g - How are you entering the phone number you want to send the sms to? Is there any dashes, parenthesis, etc. in the number?

Enter the number in this format and try again.

+[area code][number] , ex. +12135551212

and see what happens. I've seen other posts about T-Mobile where if the number is not formatted in this manner their system might refuse transport of the SMS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
it is in that format, and no go.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Have you tried a sim from another T-Mobile account that has data? That would be the next step to try and isolate the problem. While I don't think it is possible for a rom to make a persistent change to a device, it is possible it sent some command to your sim that changed a setting in the sim that is causing the issue. I had a phone screw up a sim once and I could no longer connect to the data network at all on DTAC Thailand. I had to go in and have them swap the sim and then I could connect to the data network again. If someone else's sim can send text on your phone then it is most likely a sim issue, and you would need to get T-Mobile to do a sim swap for you. If you have another T-Mobile sim you are not using you can call them and they will do the sim swap on the phone. I had them do that once when I was still in the U.S. They just need to enter the serial number from the new sim into their system for your account. If you don't have a spare T-Mobile sim just go into a T-Mobile store and tell them your system is borked and you need them to do a sim swap with a new sim for you. It should only take a few minutes for them to do it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
ya I'll be doing the test from a friends phone probably tomorrow or the next day, as of now I'm at home with wi-fi calling so I'm not freaking out too much. If all else fails I will go to T-mobile and show them what is going on and see what they can do for me with a replacement option, if the SIM deal doesn't work. I will report back what happens when I get a chance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
My guess for odds would be 10 to 1 in favor of a sim issue, rather than a device issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Hope so

I can only attest to what I tried.

My son has a MyTouch 4G. My sim in his phone sends without problem. His in mine, fails on 4G. I went to the TMO store. My sim in the store G2X demo phone sends without problem. Their sim in my phone, no go. Fortunately I have insurance and it only cost me (above the insurance) $5 for a replacement.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
What do you mean above the insurance 5$? And thanks for chiming in guys... are all of you on the latest baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmandros:
Through T-mobile I purchased insurance on my phone, when I bought it back in May/June time frame. I work in construction and while I try to be careful sometimes $#!t happens. Since I have the insurance the guy at the T-mobile store, when he determined I was correct with the problems I was describing ordered me a replacement phone. With the insurance the cost of this replacement was $5.

The insurance costs me $6 or $7 a month. Extends the warranty and covers most of the likely mishaps. I haven't read the fine print but at least in this case it is paying off.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] matzwolf:
jboxer asked me to post here. I corresponded privately with him because I could not reply to the thread and he helped me with my problem. He to this day refuses to admit its his rom that created the problem but! His solution is actually what worked for me. I called custumer support and asked for my service to be reset. They said it was not actually that that they would do, they said they where sending to my phone some data(config info I presume) and this did the trick! sms over 4g is working again.

So thanks to jobxer for taking the time to help me.

I am still unsure what caused this to happen but looking here it seems obivous its the rom somehow. Now I am affraid of installing any roms :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmandros:

I told him someone on the internet told me to ask them to reset my service. He said yeah thats what it is but I am not reseting it I will send "data" to your phone. I then waited a minute nothing happened at all on my phone but I made a test and the sms went thru.

About the being affraid to insall rom I have installed pretty much everything that exists for my phone and had this problem once when I installed jboxer's rom.

Yeah it really is it. He told me he was sending it, nothing happened on my end, then I tried sending a sms from 4g and it worked. He did say the only way to fix my phone was calling them like i did. Because I asked how I could do it myself next time. I don't have details about what they did except that its some data they send to my phone to reset/fix its configuration for sms/mms.
