[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hurston2510:
I was just going to say that floresent lighting can give the effect of bars scrolling left to right or vise versa, I've noticed it a couple of times on my SGN.

Although I did notice some moving shadows on the first day I had the phone when taking picture of a white wall.

It doesn't bother me that much as the final picture does not show the bars.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lchsu:
I've had the problem with the bands under flourescent lighting since GS2. Actually surprised not more people have reported this. I think it has to do with electrical frequencies. You can see the same thing if you take a picture of your computer screen. On Note, sometimes I don;t have the banding on screen, but appears on the final picture!

I'm sure it can be easily fixed with a software fix - syncing the cam with whatever electrical frequency (50 or 60hz) automatically as with regular cameras. Just waiting for it!

Oh...and the pink spot....since day 1 on GS2 as well!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomletters:
I have the pink spot as well. This sucks!

Any way to fix this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TML1504:
as ichsu said correctly, the bars are due to optical interference from artificial light sources. on htc devices there was a "flickering reduction" option in the settings which could be set to your grid frequency (50/60Hz). this helped a lot in such occasions! but samsung does not have such option, maybe they try to automatically detect this, and this automatic works not as intended. or they did ignore this problem, which would be strange...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fekish:
Hello,

Is there a way to sync some programs data, if they do not have these options themselves?

I suppose definitely we do not have a program similar to itunes. Or do we? That we just sync all devices through wire?

I am using android for 2 years, but now the above need seems so important!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
You could use Titanium Backup's Dropbox sync. You only get one way sync, meaning you'd have to download the files to each device then move them to the Titanium Backup folder and restore. You'd almost do just as well to copy the folders to your computer and move them to each device.

Through the built in Google sync, you get contacts, calendar, etc. I'm not sure what other data you'd need to sync between devices.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fekish:
OK thanks - synchronizing in such a way through Titanium, i think is not that efficient long term... Is a lot of hassle and should be doing it regularly.

For example notes to be synchronized (if the note program you have does not have this option) or music playlist to be synchronized or Angry Birds levels to be synchronized or programs downloading in one device to be synced with the other device in general.

I know that Google apps can be synced between devices and that is super, but i think is time to do a step forward and not just remain in what we currently have.

I suppose people with various Android devices would agree with me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fekish:
So no one else wants to sync all his devices together? Or I am still missing an important link between all these? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShoura:
I made a swap partition w/ CM7 Elitemod and when I type 'free' in terminal, i get straight 0's

How do I enable swap? I wanna test it out
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortlived:
There are many guides out there. Im not sure what cm7 requires you todo but i know with virtuous roms you need to enable it after you vcreate the partition. This is done with a nice script that is placed in the root of your sdcard. You also need to reeneable it everytime you flash a new rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShoura:
I've run 2 scripts now found in the G2 dev forums and they both error out when running them, problems with syntax errors

Can someone recommend one that works for them on CM7?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cimer:
You don't need swap on CM7, G-Lite, Google AOSP type roms. However if you want to test it out you can find the guide at the Virtuous site. Honestly on Google AOSP it won't do much, but maybe limit how much time you have with your sd card. Also the kernel needs to support swap so that may be why some people are getting errors.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xT4Z1N4TRx:
On cm7 the effects can be for the worse. Also, u need a kernel that supports it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShoura:
per your guys' advise, I am abandoning the idea of a swap partition.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjempeng:
Hello,

I'm in trouble. I have a SGS2 with stock 2.3.4 and did the cfroot a while ago and all went well.

Today I got a notice from KIES that an update was available, and so I started the update which failed.

After that my phone won't start at all and got stuck on the screen which said that I should use KIES recovery mode. I tried that but it didn't worked.

So I have tried to reflash with the cfroot, but that also didn't help.

So I wanted to reflash the stock rom as described here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

but that's also giving me errors.

Odin doesn't even write the rom it gave me this:

<ID:0/012> File analysis..

<ID:0/012> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/012> Initialzation..

<ID:0/012> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/012> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/012> boot.bin

<ID:0/012> NAND Write Start!!

<ID:0/012>

<ID:0/012> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

<ID:0/012> Removed!!

Can anyone help me please ?? I need the phone for my work :(

Best Regards,

Stefan.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Pull out the battery, reinsert the battery after 30 seconds, go in downloadmode (volume up + menu button + power button) and reflash the stock rom you need with Odin. Do NOT tick repartition or anything. You`ll find the stock rom here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278. Do NOT use a pit file. Flash the rom in PDA. Good luck
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Dear Stefan,

let me suggest:

1. Try to use another USB port.

2. Try to use another USB cable.

3. Try to boot into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power, and hold the keys until the recovery menu appears), then choose factory reset and reboot.

4. Start Odin as Administrator and make sure that KIES (and no process of KIES) is running on your PC. Then try to flash the stock ROM again.

5. After flashing, try to boot into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power, and hold the keys until the recovery menu appears), then choose factory reset and reboot.

Hope that it helps.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjempeng:
Solved !!!

YES !!!! IT WORKED !!!!!

I'm not sure which tip did the trick as I did all the things you both said and it worked !

I'm so happy !!!

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theREDlegion:
This thread contains the stock ROGERS firmware that comes with the GT-P1000R.

Andrew_Low has provided a copy of his stock FROYO backup, which I tested on my tab and confirm that it is working. The kernel is rooted, other than that it is a clean ROGERS rom. For further details on this refer to post 2.

He was also able to capture the GINGERBREAD update (which I have not tested as of yet, any testers please post your results).

This is the stock update available from KIES. For further details on this refer to post 2.

Many thanks to him for this, if it helps you, hit his thank you button. If you find this thread helpful as well, hit my thank you button.

Instructions on flashing are not provided. If you need these files it means you know how to flash your device, have flashed a custom ROM previously, and require this to return to a stock state.

As usual FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK, don't blame ANYONE here for ANYTHING.

PLEASE NOTE: The FROYO stock ROM is currently unavailable, will be back up soon.

Downloads can be found here

Further more, I would like to thank kpetrie77 for setting up a wiki on the Samsung Galaxy Tab, the wiki is full of great links for all things Galaxy Tab. You can find it here, and if you have anything to contribute please do so as it helps everyone here at XDA.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Andrew_Low:
Thanks to theREDlegion for putting this together. Happy to try to help others both on P1000 series.

The FROYO version was rooted with SuperOneClick 2.2 - if you use this utility and unroot it will remove the superuser.apk and after a reboot, adb won't connect as root. Before you do that reboot, you'll want to remove the busybox binaries /system/xbin to reach as 'near a stock state as possible'.

The GINGERBREAD version was snagged from Kies during the update process. It seems the Check Fus Donwloader doesn't know about Rogers (but it knows about Bell?!).

Real life gets in the way for hacking, but I'm motivated to make the Tab (mine included) as useful as possible beyond stock.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] SaHiLzZ:
Thank you. This will come in handy.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theREDlegion:
Glad to help.

If possible can you post your results. It might be useful info for others.

Thanks,

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theREDlegion:
Sorry to respond almost a month later but I have not been checking my PM's regularly for the past little bit with so many other things on the go. It is better to post these kinds of questions in the thread itself, as this would help other members with similar questions. That is why I created the thread, and this is a good question to ask and answer in the thread. It is a REALLY GOOD QUESTION, that I'm sure others would be interested in and therefore I will post it in the thread. If you would like me to remove your username please contact me.

The Samsung Gingerbread release is not locked, it is signed. You CAN flash custom kernels and ROMs, DO NOT use the PATCH tool that Chainfire has provided, if that is why you ask, see that thread. That patch is an amazing tool provided by Chainfire, there is nothing wrong with the patch it just does not apply to us. If you use it, the tool will ask you to patch, DO NOT PATCH. You will screw things up with it and have to re-flash, re-stock and re-do everything just to fix it.

If you are

uncertain

if you should flash anything, than DON'T FLASH ANYTHING. Read, read than read some more before continuing any further.

These stock ROM's are not SamFirmware downloads, they are STOCK Rogers firmware from the device and from the update from KIES.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] SaHiLzZ:
I haven't had the opportunity to restore a tab yet. One of these days someone will lend me one for testing and I will try test these files.

Looking at the files, these will need to be restored via heimdall correct?

Also looking for the Bell Froyo rom. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] theREDlegion:
Heimdall is correct.

Have not come across a stock BELL Froyo ROM (haven't even looked really). Will see what I come across and post back.

How to flash P1000R to stock Gingerbread

I wrote up how to take the Gingerbread firmware in the OP and flash it to your device.

http://lowtek.ca/roo/2012/restore-rogers-galaxy-p1000r-to-stock/

It's short and sweet. Ubuntu (Linux) as my desktop, heimdall as the flashing tool. Key is really mapping the files in the firmware to the heimdall partition names and getting through the boot sequence (flash, recovery and allow update, reboot).

Hey guys,

this is still no kernel, it will only optimize your values for touchscreen using :D The most important thing in this script is the following line:

On my SGS and the SLC is this the best one. Maybe you can try whats working for you as the best and tell it to me so that i can share the best result. I hope the script is now supported by the SGA, i modified it from Galaxy SLC working device... Please give me your feedback.

Can someone of the good Devs from this device tell me if this config is supported by the SGA kernels? Sure it is, but i don´t know under which name

Files attached to this post:

the_modified_file.zip (THE mod, RootExplorer method)

the_mod_for_galaxy_ace_flashable.zip (THE mod, CWM method)

Files should work now on CM7 and Custom/Stock Samsung Firmwares

How to install:

- RootExplorer method; download the attached the_modified_file.zip, unpack it and put the file to /system/usr/idc/mxt224_ts_input.idc. Aaaand Reboot.

- CWM method; download the attached the_flashable_modified_file.zip, put it to your sd-card and flash it through CWM. Aaaand Reboot.

I'm very used to the beautiful iPod/iTunes synchronization, and after getting a Samsung Galaxy 2 (and fighting for an hour with Kies and foobar2000 with no luck) I've started to appreciate Apple's retarded close-systems a little more, to be honest.

Any good software to manage music (change artist name, change name, update artwork, etc)? Kies is impressively ****ty and foobar2000 only changes the metadata on itself (when browsing the library from foobar2000 it looks very organized but when browsing from the cellphone everything looks very unorganized).

Hey guys I was wondering if there is a fix for this issue I'm having, the location in the weather app (sense and weather bug) and any other app I use is showing a place in Pennsylvania and I'm in NY. Also when I post on Facebook shows that location, and when using the NAV (google or telenav) takes a while to lock GPS and looses it constantly trough navigation.

Okay so I was running Unnamed 1.3.1 rom when curiosity got the best of me and i wanted to try out The Nightly. So i did a nandroid backup then booted into CWM recovery wipe data factory reset and proceeded to install the zip file named "update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-Galaxys2ATT-KANG-signed.zip" from the link i downloaded. I sat my phone down and when i came back it was stuck on the Samsung Gs2 boot screen.

1. I tried removing the battery 5 times and it does nothing.

2. It won't even boot into CWM just Download mode when i try the Power vol trick.

3. I only have aftermarket batteries so connecting to a computer via USB to fix this is out of the question because the absence of the nfc chip in the battery will cause the phone to boot loop if connected via usb.

So my question is... How can i boot into CWM while my phone is in this state so i can do a restore?
