[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killer_mobile:
Hey Max,

Thanks for the info you've given. FYI, based on quite a bit of feedback, it seems the best way to get two-sided call recording going on the Galaxy Note is to first perform a test call using our Strategy B setting (you can adjust this under Audio -> Advanced Settings), then set the app to use Strategy C. As odd as this sounds, that's what gets this working. We're still researching the "Why", and we're also working on automating this for you to make it easier, so keep an eye out for this update.

And just as Max mentioned, the S2 build is nothing more than a version that's preset for this particular device. We'll probably release more builds like this for the more popular devices.

And just so you know, we are currently working on a complete, from the ground up rebuild to really clean up the UI (it's become a monster) and make things much easier to use, as well as adding quite a few features and updates that you guys have been requesting over the past months.

Stay Killer!

I bought the version for the Galaxy SII (i9100) because it was the season of my device, then migrated to the galaxy note N7000, made ​​several requests on the website of killermobile requesting release so that I could use or download the version of the play version specifies to note (N7000) and unfortunately I was not satisfied.

Ae arrepdendido am today because I paid much and just because I changed my phone (samsung for samsung) can not use the product you bought and expensive, very expensive.

I feel very bad about the treatment meted out by the killer mobile site.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJ147:
I use auto call recorder app from market. Works both ways and well.....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GuestK00431:
Read countless reviews and still can't decide.

Two things putting me off. The lack of ICS and Samsung take forever to get updates out (example my old mans galaxy s2 is still on 2.3.4 while my brothers Liquid Metal is on 2.3.6) Also the fact that quad core phones will be out next year.

My being picky? How are you guys gettin on with you' re notes?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Pops_G:
Seeing as there is one phone in existence sold with ics on it, that is kind of a tough stance to take. Also this has nearly the fastest currently available processor, why do you think you need a quad core?

I guess you could wait till they stop making new phones, that way there is nothing better just around the corner. I heard that will be next year, so I would wait.

Honestly, the best thing you can do is just get a new phone every year. :) until the next best thing, the note is it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RMXO:
You could learn how to root & install custom ROMs, so you never have to wait for the Samsung's updates.

If you could wait for a Quad core phone then wait for it. If you can't, then the Note should do you well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] GuestK00431:
I know how to root so if ICS was ported I could do it myself. I'm just being picky and making up excuses to not buy the damn thing I think.. I do want it but the Galaxy Nexus went back cause I couldn't stand the volume bug and the crappy build. Just looking for opinions really to see if this device is really worth it and if the size is a problem. Trust XDA users opinions over Engadget and other tech sites.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] xAnimal5:
Ummm how to put this in simple words...

Once you start using the Note, all other phones will seem like small, slow pieces of garbage.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RMXO:
Wasn't sure if you knew or not hence the suggestion.

So true. My friend bought Sprint's version of the SGS2 & she can barely go back to her SGS2 after using my Note for many hours.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bcroc:
So true...

Just got it since last week, but I don't think I'm ever going back to smaller... Only if there won't be any of theselovely 5" phones:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
samsung arent too bad with updates, it could just be your device is locked to a region or carrier that doesnt update regularly.

my note was locked to the PLS region. it took 1-2 weeks longer than the other regions to get 2.3.6, but even so, its quite a quick update considering its a carrier branded device thats only been out for a month or so.

quad core phones have their strengths and weaknesses. the only advantage is in multitasking. you wont be able to use the raw power for a single app though aside from nvidia tegra 3 games. most PC apps are only now beginning to support multicore, i'd say android will take a fair while as well. when devs make apps, they make them so they will run on a wide variety of devices to maximise earnings. most people using android devices are still using single cores, devs will focus on maximising compatibility and improving performance on single cores first, so on a quad core phone, you may have one or two active cores with the other two doing pretty much nothing.

by the time the software catches up, you'd be stuck with a 40nm tegra3 that would burn your hands when a newer 28nm or 20nm cpu will be available and would be much faster and run much cooler.

i'd say just get a note now, enjoy the snappy performance of the apps samsung have optimised for dual core and the gpu and have fun knowing that you'll be using all you paid for in the phone rather than only getting half your money's worth with a quad.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Braxos:
As I know wildfires will not come out next year. There are coming some bastards 2x2 cores 2 at 1.5-1.8 and 2 low MHz cores so the battery live is increased when you don't need high usage of the cores. So don't think there will be much difference from the 2cores that are in the market atm. Maybe a better you on them will do the trick as now ics will provide hw acceleration.

Just my thoughts about that.
[HTC Wildfire S] Sensational_:
Hi there,

I'm trying to configure my wife's hotmail account on her wildfire s using the default mail app and exchange server option, but i only seem to be getting the past few days emails come through.

The folders display properly, but if there were no recent emails, the folders appear empty.

I've configured the account from the "past 3 days" to "display all emails", but this makes no difference.

I can set up a pop3 account and this will display everything in the inbox successfully, but obviously without the folder functionality which is no good.

Has anyone else experienced this problem, or can point me towards a solution pls.?

Regards, S.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codingrobot:
I think some water got in the phone between the glass and the casing.

Anyway, now only 1/5 of the screen reacts to touch (on the screenshot the marked area is non responsive).

Also the menu button doesn't work.

Would changing the touch glass solve the problem or are there more HW-parts involved?

There is no other phone like the Defy (small dimensions - great resolution) on the market so I'd like to fix it.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codingrobot:
I just got a new touch screen/digitizer and the problem still exists. Could it be a problem with the mainboard? I also did a factory reset.

The exact part of the digitizer doesn't work for me either.

The only thing is that i had water damage and replaced both lcd and digitizer.

Did you eventually solve the problem ?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ronnbon:
Hi there,

I tried two different silicone cases/ skins- one cheap no name product and a not cheap nilkin skin... with both people who talks to me hear their voices like a slight belated echo again. The sound somehow gets thrown back to them through the silicone skin. Thats very, very irritating for them.

I am sure about the silicon skins as the reason- I removed one during a call and the problem vanished at once.

Apart from the fact that the nilkin case was not really cheap I really want to use a silicon skin for my phone. I don't want to let it naked and I don't like the leather flip-cases I have at the moment.

Am I the only one with this problem?

If so- what could be the reason?

Any help or ideas are very welcome!.... :confused:

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cuhrazy:
Try turning noise suppression off during a call
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ronnbon:
thanks, will try this...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Dmonty:
As above, if you turn noise reduction off the echo will vanish.

However, many people have this issue and it looks like a faulty component on the PCB.

I'd suggest, if this is a new phone and within 14days, send it back for a replacement, if not send it back for repair.. I also had this issue but sent it back for a replacement, the replacement does not have this issue..
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ronnbon:
At the moment I still hope for another solution than giving my phone away for probably several weeks.

First I discovered that my microphone at the bottom was also nearly blocked by the white grommet.. I could moved it a little with a safety pin.

Than I will try the constant noise suppression method with the modded phone apk.

If that all will not help I will send it back for repair...

But thanks for that suggestion- I didn't even noticed that option before. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Coedy:
Do the cases cover the top mic? That caused a problem on my brother's phone.

Used a hot screwdriver to melt a nice neat hole in the silicone case above the top mic hole.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ronnbon:
No, case is fine- both cases had holes for the mic....

[Kindle Fire General] EABonney:
I used it this morning to listen to music while getting ready for work just like any other day. When I turned it off it has about 65% batter left and I set it on my counter. Came home at lunch and it would not turn on. I plugged in the charger and got no response from the device, no orange light nothing.

I brought it to work and it has been plugged in for almost an hour now and it still has no orange light on it and it will not turn on. Any suggestions for what to do or what might have happened?

-Eric
[Kindle Fire General] mikbe.tk:
I've had that happen twice with mine so far the fix is easy though:

Press and hold the power button for 20 seconds.

Press the power button again and it should come one.

Hopefully that fixes it for you.
[Kindle Fire General] EABonney:
Dude you are a FREAKING life saver!! :) I really thought it was dead, but when I did this it turned on just fine and was almost fully charged as well. Wonder what causes this? Any ideas?

Anyway, thanks!!

-Eric
[Kindle Fire General] Felnarion:
I would think it's some kind of problem, regardless. Software or hardware, who knows. Basically the 20 second power button as I understand it is just a hard reset akin to a battery pull.
[Kindle Fire General] mikbe.tk:
It's definitely a problem but it's not a problem with just his Fire; it's happened to me twice. Once when I turned off the Fire while playing a game (not a hard power off, just a quick power button tap) and again when another app crashed.
[Kindle Fire General] death2all110:

[Kindle Fire General] mdizzle9:
I had this happen to me while I was in a work meeting on Friday. Thankfully I found this thread so I learned about the 20 second hold down thing. It worked like a charm and I have only had it happen once. For the record I am not, nor have ever, rooted the Fire.

It was pretty discouraging to be sitting in the meeting with a "dead" Fire and unable to look at the manual to see how to factory reset it because, well, the manual is included in the Fire....

man, I hate irony.
[Kindle Fire General] Settembrini:
Same problem here. Several times it has been dead now. This morning again and the power had fallen without showing any steps for about 10 per cent. Wifi was switched off.

Any more ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] Settembrini:
Now it happend two times in a row. After this night again it was "dead" in the morning. Are there any ideas what might be wrong with the device? (rooted, wifi off, ADW launcher, but not activated, some google apps like market)

Any ideas what could be done?
[Kindle Fire General] brucestouder:
It only happens to mine (rooted, adb, Go Launcher) when I put it to sleep while it is in "Go Launcher", if I put it to sleep from Kindle Launcher it wakes right up. Hope this helps.

[HTC Desire S] levantine:
Hello everyone.

I've been looking around here for some time, reading all that suff about eMMC chips burning on Desire S. That fact dissapoints me as I was aiming to buy the gadget myself. :( However, I didn't find any general solution or even investigation of the case, so I'm trying to develop some kinda stuff. Let me summarize main points that we have so far.

1) The faulty guy is usually Samsung eMMC-type BGA chip KLM4G2DE (2 Gb NAND flash), however Sundisk chips were also found to burn.

2) The problem is rather hardware than software dependent as it is observed without any corellation to hboot/flash installed.

3) It was noticed that in many cases eMMC fault followed extraction-insertion of battery after phone freeze.

4) HTC doesn't recognize this as defective case and no improvements to hardware are made in new revisions of motherboard (MB) as there have been cases (at least one) when the same phone after warranty repair crashed again after some time.with the same eMMc chip installed

5) Other phones with the same eMMC installed (e.g. Sensation) doesn't experience same problems.

What can I deduce out of all this stuff and my own experience?

As soons as the case seems to be non-software dependent it should be the chip or some other hardware that drives it wrong. As soons as the chip itself seems to be OK (see 5) I beleive that it is poor motherboard design that burns the chip down. eMMC is rather bomb-proof architecture combining the memory itself and the memory controller on the same crystal. Two major ways to drive it wrong are:

1) Supply incorrect clock pulses to clock bus

2) Supply incorrect power (current/voltage/voltage slope) to memory and/or controller

The first assumption seems not very possible as clock usually comes from centralized source controlled by oscillator. If the clock is wrong, the emmc fault wouldn't be the only problem ;)

The second point seems rather reasonable as Samsung eMMC power-up guide (see file attached) directly points out the importance of accurate power supply (especially power-on slope!), otherwise memory faults are inevitable.

That's all I can deduce so far, unfortunately there's no photos/schematics of desire s on the web to analyze the connection of emcc chip to MB. What can I suggest to prove/disprove all the stuff I wrote:

1) Can someone brave disassemble his Desire S and make high resolution photos of both sides of motherboard? This may help in further analysis.

2) Can someone even more brave and being on close terms with oscilloscope try to measure power-up voltage slope on Vсс and VccQ inputs of eMMC chip(see document attached) ? May be we are just having one of the issues described in the document.

UPDATE

I found the datasheet four our chip, find it attached to this post
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Also, strangely, a common way to trigger the 'dead emmc' is when you hit 'update all' apps in the android market, regardless of what ROM/market version your on..

Surely it must be a combination of a software fault/problem too?
[HTC Desire S] levantine:
As far as I got it, some kinda software problem causes phone to hang during market update. Lots of users tend to solve this by removing/re-inserting the battery which leads to burned emmc.
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Yeah.. that would be the case. It kind of sucks knowing you could potentially brick your phone by just updating apps from the market.

And if you're on a custom ROM, you're screwed :(
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
From my experience the eMMC in the "fried" cases is not actually faulty but simply does not allowing write access. Usually it is accompanied by /cache or /cache + /data corruption. When only /cache is the problem it is fixable, but when /data is affected there is no way to write a bit on the internal memory.

Unfortunately I have no confirmed explanation to this...

Just in theory when updating several apps from the Market (or other activities requiring use of /cache partition) it is possible that the /cache is filled with data and the device stucks at a point when it has no more space available to write. Rebooting to recovery and wiping /cache solves the problem. But if in that moment, when the app is downloading to /cache and another app is written from /cache to the /data partition at the same time, disconnecting the power source (battery pull) can interrupt the process making this partition unavailable (example: if you take out your USB flash drive from the PC while writing data on it there is a great chance to destroy it - tested myself :) ) The ext4 file system provides a protection for such cases by the way it is managing the writing process - reference here.

In my opinion all of the bricked devices (famous "fried eMMC") reported in this forum are easily repairable with JTAG and a skilled technician, but unfortunately there are no such cases reported here. Personally I do not have the knowledge, equipment and intention to do such experiments myself.

This is my logic based on my observations while trying to assist people in this forum to solve this issue. For some of them it was successful, for others - not.

I hope that my post will make a contribution to the general picture.

Regards,

Stefan

Hi, thanks for sharing your thoughts. So you say those who uses EXT4 should be safe? Here's a screenie from my wifes DS.

Also, my SGSII got broken and now i'm thinking to get one of Desire S for myself. How's situation with those fried eMMC's, was there a lot of reports over here? What chances are to get it "fried"? Sorry, i don't have much time to go trough all DS forums.
