[Acer Iconia A500] vil-2:
Hi there,

I've got a problem with my A500 (rooted with taboonay ROM).

I've been using it for weeks without a problem. But now it doesn't boot any more. The screen stays black, the Power button lights on when I press it, but that's all.

I tried to hold Volume button while pressing Power, but it won't boot either.

I don't understand why it behaves like this.

Any way to force it to boot, please?

thanks !
[Acer Iconia A500] Laggu:
Look somewhere on the forums, there was a topic how to unbrick.
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Try doing a hard reset.

There's a little pinhole on right, lower side of tab labeled "reset".

;)
[Acer Iconia A500] vil-2:
I tried to push this little button, the power button lights on but the screen stays off...thank you anyway. Any other tips?
[Acer Iconia A500] jon-.-:
Use the search function and find the thread(s) about unbricking :).
[Acer Iconia A500] loband_ml:
In the developer part you can find theme with unbricking instructions

I can't seem to use custom/nonstock ringtones for notifications on ei22. Before on ec05 I had a folder on my sdcard that had them all and it worked but no go now. Theb only thing I can think of is that ei22 doesn't support mp3 tones because I even tried placing it in the notification folder within the system.

I did search but every thread is to disable it lol
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Works fine for me. I click notification sound in settings>sound and all my ringtones pop up in the list and work fine. Maybe you need the sounds in the ringtone folder.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logic0verflow:
So for some reason I can use MP3 for ringtones but not notifications. In order for me to use custom notifications they need to be OGG, ei22 doesn't like MP3's for some odd reason :(

By the way I am using CleanGB rom so maybe its that if everyone else is able to use MP3's.

EDIT:

Spoke to soon, I can now see it under notifications but it doesn't play it :(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I'm on Legendary and have no problem using MP3s in my ringtone folder. Try converting it to M4A file. Maybe there is a file you are missing since CleanGB has a lot of bloat removed.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URwannabehack:
As wack as this may sound, if you truly can't find a resolution...ringdroid supports mp3 notifications.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logic0verflow:
Thanks, I was not able to find an option to change it manually but I downloaded the Zedge app and it allowed me to choose a notification that it had (same one I had).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
After the Honeycomb 3.2 ROM versions were leaked, a lot of people were disappointed that the Ebook reader did not work anymore on the customized ROMs. It was the same for my own custom ROM, the Ganbarou V0.4.

I played around a little bit and could finally get the Ebook reader to work. And even better, it is no longer a system application that you need to flash with the CWM recovery. Now you can just install the application as a normal user application.

To install the ebook reader, download the ebook.apk from my apps section. Copy the file to your tablet. Open your file manager on the tablet, and double click on the ebook.apk file to install it.

But I have to say, I am a little bit disappointed, because the Ebook reader has problems with the German fonts. See on the screenshots on my website post.

Download as usual from the apps section of my website or direct from this post. MD5 checksum is 9db1d18b8013e02deeaaeb1da2f0ca84 for the apk file and d1127f7c6bf9704e57f33d7fbd0edefc for the ZIP file.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] rickenbackercriswell:
I found the IMPORT function caused an FC immediately. Could be cos I'm on Taboonay ROM for my Acer Iconia... Shame but much thanks for effort! I was looking forward to making this my one and only reader prog.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Too bad for you, but I could only test on the Samsung P7500 with the HC 3.2 ROM.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jolobe:
problem here after 3.2 update. I tried to install your e-book app but this didn’t work (gt 7510 stock rom) “message: app not installed.

Do you have any suggestions ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
You need to remove the (not working) ebook.apk from the systems/app folder before you can install this version. You can remove it either from the original ROM ZIP file and then flash this changed ROM again (no data loss usually) or use e.g. ROOT-EXPLORER to delete the ebook.apk.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jolobe:
Thanks for advice!

Can i remove the original ebook.apk without causing problems to other apps?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Yes, it can be removed without problems.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jolobe:
removed original app, installed yours....

works fine for me!!

Thanks.

Samsung ebook reader is crap!

the Sammy's eBook app crashes on me all the time (SGT 10.1). It is slow and is not as smooth as the Ipad2's ibook. When I flick through the pages, after a while it would freeze up and revert back to the library screen. It is very frustrating. If Sammy wants to beat Apple, they need to step up their game! :mad:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
That's why I prefer Aldiko. Free from the market, smooth, and with Aldiko Sync I can even read the same book on my phone or on my tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Windiddy:
Yes Aldiko is pretty good. I wish it had highlighter option like Sammy eBook app!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] zeeqy:
Hi,

I have been looking for this Ebook Reader for a while, I posted a thread on xda as well, I come across your post and somehow ended up here...

Here is my question, can I install this ebook reader on Gingerbread? coz I have Galaxy Note and have installed all the best recommended book readers but nothing like the Honeycomb stock reader...

Regards,

Zeeq
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
No idea, I never tried. But you can just give it a try. If it doesn't work just uninstall it again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] zeeqy:
I did try but no luck
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Rgornik79:
I checked your app on Overcome 10.1 series 230 ROM, and have some problems with "polish characters" displayed as squares. Well it seems that we are missing some part of this reader. Too bad cuz I find this reader as best one.

Hope some day You find the way to fix it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] !BSG:
On Samsung Galaxy Note with 4.0.3 works good

But there are awful shadows on top right part of the screen while sliding.

I think this problem not hard to fix... but how
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BobaPhil:
Hello everyone, came across this thread while looking for the Ebook.apk

Now, I have the Sammy Tablet 10.1, which I just installed the ICS, it's a two edged sword, I lost swype and the worst was loosing Ebook.

Now, I've installed the apk that BeeGee posted, which, does work, but...

If I try to import a book or pdf, it crashes

If I open a pdf from file manager, it imports it, but it it doesn't 'show' the pages. I can even highlight, but I don't know what I'm highlighting, lol.

Is there a build for the ICS. I'm considering going back to the Gingerbread, just to get the Ebook back, I loved it. :(

Any help would be rewarded with cake.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] WingnutLord:
I believe that the ebook app required components from the touchwiz file manager, which was why import funxtion does not work.

I wonder if there is a work around.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Runs without problems on my Ganbarou ICS ROM. Maybe because I build in some patch that makes Samsung Apps market running.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] ooz777:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Sorry have to change my message. Samsung ebook reader is NOT working on ICS. Even if you succeed to get over the first screen, all you can read is the book that comes with the reader. Importing of books leads to a FC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] badsleeper:
Thanks mate, everything work fine and dandy on my Galaxy Note, even the supposedly buggy import feature. The only glitch is that the cover image doesn't show on library and menu windows appear with wrong sizes (caused by resolution difference i guess)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
I searched General and didn't find anything other than, "you gotta pay like 30$ and they'll email you the code.'

On my Infuse, there was an unlock within three days of release.

What's the status for us? There's got to be a free software unlock that we can do by now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Riot147:
I tried to request one thru ATT and they denied me because the s2sr is carrier specific...and I work for them so they might be your best option
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Turbojugend:
I used http://www.cellunlocker.net/ to unlock a Blackberry for a friend the other night, it was eight dollars and the code was emailed to me in 2 minutes. Looks like the I727 is on there too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
nah, they charge 28$ too :(

man... crazy how little Dev support for this phone. really shocked this hasn't been done by now.

id rather pay money to a Dev to post this for everyone than a website like that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nemo4:
hi

you can unlock your phone using codes. you can get the codes from Mobileunlocksolutions.com. while unlocking your phone through codes you need only your imei and a foregin sim to get it unlocked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
reading is fundamental...

yeah that's more expensive than the other site and they dont have the SR listed.

the point is...as i said, i'd rather pay a Dev like lost1 did for the Infuse for a program that everyone can use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sirgatory:
Did anyone try the galaxy s unlock app from the market? That app worked for my att s2. I think ill go try out.

Edit: guess that doesn't work. Says I have a busy box problem. When I get home from work I'll try the manual hex way and see what I can get done there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Irukandji:
I tried Cellunlocker.net and they email me back telling me, unable to find code.

I too have contacted at&t and I got the same response, phone locked to network.

I have also tryed the Hex manual way and no luck.

Does anyone had any success unlocking SGH-I727?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
Yeah I tried both the unlockers from the market as well as looking for the bml3 file for the hex but apparently it's hidden in a different file as the bml3 doesn't seem to exist on our phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ysr84:
I would rather pay a dev that a site...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kkiran:
Guys, any update on the unlock, XDA-style? I tried several unlock code providers and am still waiting for a code from them. It is painfully delayed. Did any developer start working on some software unlock for Skyrocket? I understand lesser demand on this phone but if we can get some work going on on the unlock front, that had be awesome!

I will be the first one to donate btw! $28 is too much if it is severely delayed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] latinohot:
yeah, i'd love to have my skyrocket unlocked, but still waiting to see who will get it done for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
Still nothing apparently. this is nuts. i unlocked my Infuse last year the day after i got it...and i got it on launch day!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aznrice2k4:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aznchillin:
Anyone figured out how to unlock it without having to purchase a code yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jrsmooth:
+1 here, waiting for someone dev figure out a way to get the unlock code XDA style... I had to purchase a code for my SGS 2 off eBay just now to unlock it, but it costs only 99 cents. Not sure why the unlock code for the SkyRocket cost so much, I mean, $23 is the lowest eBay price last check...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dcow90:
I'm convinced that the online sites are run as side projects by network operator or manufacturer device support employees (ie AT&T or Samsung) who can unlock using the IMEI.

I can confirm that the lock code for this phone is located in a completely different location. Also, I am willing to throw a lot of time at this if someone can point me to the furthest progress made or point me to someone who knows what's going on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lart2150:
I just orderd a t-mobile sim off ebay for $1 and plan on calling att for a unlock code as I've been a good customer forever. I can dump my partitions before and after the unlock code to try and narrow down where it is stored.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lart2150:
:( just called att and they claim that the skyrocket is exclusive to att and therefor don't need to provide me a unlock code. So much for that.

Do it please..

Screw paying for something that is yours!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kwaalude:
I called them on Monday and the girl I spoke with was really pleasant, said she'd be happy to do it. When she looked up my IMEI number she said it wouldn't even display my unlock code. She escalated it to level two and they responded in email that the device couldn't be unlocked until 6 months were up. That date for me is 2 days before I leave for Italy so I hope they're not jerking me around. I'd like to find a resolution on xda before then however.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Hawkeye9723:
It's total BS, When I got my SR at the retail store the guy in front of me purchased one as well as an iPhone. He payed full price for both, and asked the agent to get them unlocked. The agent called someone and was able to give him a code for the SR, and informed him that when he plugged the iPhone into his computer iTunes would unlock it for him. Then he asked the agent about jailbreaking / rooting. The agent informed him that they violate the TOS and will void the waranty, he also said it was illegal (more BS)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] FLHXRider:
Success!

Well, I've had my SR for over 6 months on a renewal contract. Called AT&T and got the same runaround from their first-tier support about exclusivity and so on. Even had a second-level guy tell me to call Samsung and they would provide the code. "Are you sure?" I asked. "Yes," he said. He even transferred me. Whereupon I stepped through their menu only to hear a recording that Samsung wouldn't provide the code as they had no way to verify ownership. :mad: Whatever...

So I got back in touch and asked to be escalated right away. They did and I related my story and how I was disappointed to have been given the runaround. The person I spoke with was appropriately sympathetic. She verified that they didn't have my code in their database, but put in a written request for it and told me it would be a few days.

Seems like a really stupid noon question I got to ask. However I only been on a GSM network for couple months.

Once you unlock the phone will you still be able to use the phone on at&t network and the sim you have and use on any other network??? That was more like a 3 part question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] websquirrel:
Yes, your phone will still work on AT&T the same way it did before unlocking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mikerowes69:
OK never unlocked my phone before. This phone is a refurbished phone from an issue from flashing. So like most everyone else I got the new update and all the dailer codes work where they didn't before. I did the "view phone lock status" *#7465625# and it looks like this phone is unlocked but I need others to look at and tell me if I am wrong??? This screenshot is posted
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Intub8:

its not unlocked, mine showed the same message, tried a diff sim it wouldnt work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IEatKittys!:
The reason it says network lock off is because you have an att sim card inside the phone. Put another sim card in and it will read network lock On
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] andTab:
Just realized that I have had my phone for more than 6 months, so I called for the unlock code.

Of course, customer service would not give it to me (as reported by others), so I asked for a ticket to be created and accelerated to the next level of support.

I explained that I have had the phone for 6+ months and that I have been an at&t customer for 8+ years.

I should get an answer on/before Aug 3.

PS: Somewhat disappointed that other phones have had working software to unlock the phone within days and we still have nothing, forcing us to jump through at&t's asinine hoops.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kylanbenoit:
I also used cellunlocker.net it only costed me eight dollars.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
AT&T told me a week, but then I received the email with the code in less than 24 hours.

Interesting thing is that my skyrocket was already unlocked, as I popped in a TMO sim to get it to prompt for the unlock code and it just registered on the TMO network instead. Same thing with a Vodafone prepaid sim, it just worked!

So I'm investigating this further, I know that it was locked on 05/05 as I was sitting on the phone with AT&T looking at the 'Enter Network Control key' prompt on my phone, but they didn't give me the code then ( < 6 months ). But as of 06/10 its no longer locked. Now just trying to figure out what I might have done to cause it to unlock. I never entered the unlock code or used any kind of USB unlocking service. This leads me to believe there is a way :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droidbabyxda:
my htc inspire 4g did the same thing. rooted but never unlocked. guy who bought my phone popped in his tmo sim and viola it worked. :) dnt know why.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zefie:
Heh, this code shows the same thing for me, even with a T-Mo sim inserted while there is an error in the status bar stating that there is a Network locked sim installed. In other words that code is absolutely useless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] f308gt4:
FWIW, I was able to get an unlock code for my skyrocket, similarly. I used the online help, and asked for a supervisor and said that I understood that I was supposed to ask for a "OKCQSubsidyUnlock" case to be opened. They opened a case (gave me a case number) and said that I would hear back from them within a few days. I never heard back from ATT, so today I went back online and asked to follow up on my case. They said it was completed and that they had provided me with the code. I told them that I had not received it, so then they just gave it to me right there, as well as the instructions (looks like they copied and pasted from the e-mail below) to use it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] akbabb:
I moved to the UK a few months ago and Sim unlocked my skyrocket online for about $30. Best 30 bucks I ever spent on the phone.
