[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uwengdori:
Hi guys. I used to use iPhone4 until yesterday when I switched to Galaxy Note purchased from Amazon.com. I used the typical APN setting for GN widely available on this forum (didn't root, still works fine and IMEI issue hopefully doesn't occur to me), and I receive calls just fine, use data just fine as well. However, I notice that whenever it's using data, it switches from 3G to H+ and goes back to 3G. Also, the internet is somestimes satisfyingly fast as well as facebook, but sometimes, it requires several tries to get the internet working, as compared to iPhone4 where the internet speed was typical but stable.

Any ideas on this matter? I really appreciate it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
This is probably related to a feature (enabled by default) known as Fast Dormancy. Since AT&T's network doesn't take advantage of this feature, all it does on your phone by being enabled is waste battery and make your data speed erratic.

To fix this problem, disable Fast Dormancy.

Go to dialer and input: *#*#9900#*#*

This should bring up SysDump menu.

The second option up from the bottom should be:

Enable fast dormancy(Current State : Enabled)

Click on that, and it should then read that it is disabled. Exit and you're done!

Enjoy! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uwengdori:
Thank you for the response! I will experiment with this for a few days!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dennishhh:
Just tried this and now I have steady H+ instead of jumping back and forth. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uwengdori:
In my case, when I'm not using data, the status is shown as 3G, but as soon as I have any kind of data activity going, it switches to H+ and starts transferring stuff. I will experiment with it for a few more days and see how this goes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Yeah that's normal. Basically, instead of switching very quickly between UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA/HSPA+ while actively using an open data connection, disabling fast dormancy initiates a connection with the tower at the fastest available rate first, and then sticks to that as long as signal quality and strength supports it. Also, the connection remains active for a little longer after data transfer stops before it returns to dormant idle state.

Think like the difference between a race car vs a jet. The Car is much more agile when it comes to getting up to speed and going back to rest than the jet. However, once the jet gets rolling and in the air, it just soars.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxh:
So what's the reason for Fast Dormancy then? If it doesn't do anything good, why would it exist and be enabled by default? Seems like it would at least help battery life, rather than hurt it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
It's probably enabled for European providers, which this phone is produced for.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amv13:
I was at AT&T this morning switching out my iPhone 4 and asked the rep the same exact question! His response, after asking his manager, was that it was due to signal quality and strength...

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

I tried this and it then received only 3G. I only left it for a minute or two before changing back, should I have left it longer?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoWeb:
From AT$T's website

What is fast dormancy?

The fast dormancy feature allows an app to send a control message to unilaterally and immediately demote the device to a lower power mode, without waiting for inactivity timers to expire. This conserves battery power and makes network resources available sooner to other network users.

But fast dormancy is difficult to use. Predicting the end of a connection is easier on certain types of apps (an online banking transaction, a file transfer) than others (random web browsing).

Used too aggressively, fast dormancy can actually worsen matters, since dropping to a lower power mode may affect other concurrently running apps that would almost immediately require the device to be promoted.

To avoid this, AT&T researchers (again in collaboration with the University of Michigan colleagues) are proposing Tail Optimization Protocol (TOP), which implements fast dormancy using a simple interface that coordinates among currently running apps before demoting the device.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Do a few speed tests with it on, then again with it off. See what's better :)

I was making some updates or what ever, instaling this **** http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312240&page=1048 and karnel 2.6 and don't know what else...:D

So now i can't turn on my phone... It always turns and turns but not fully, just to that step where writes samsung galaxy s II... :O what to doo!! ?? Only way is odin? and how? pls i need full explanation :/
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricey1986:
Can you get into recovery or download mode?? Also show some respect for the devs work rather than calling it "****"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebas156:
Did you make a Nandroid backup before flashing? (then just go into recovery and restore).

If not,

Go into download mode (volume down + home button + power button) and flash your stock rom with ODIN. Download your correct firmware here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

(there are also instructions on how to do it)

Do a factory reset and wipe your cache first before you do this (in recovery mode).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rankoradza:
I can use only odin i think, cuz i can't turn on the phone so there is not any other possibility...:/

can i download listening room 6.1 and instal because that's only i found via odin.. exept that u said me here... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rankoradza:
I made only titanium backup... that doesnt help right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rankoradza:
Btw how can i know what is my karnel version ? i mean... last i instal was listening room 6.1 and i instal it just now bia odin... but phone still doesnt works... so? what to do? :O before litening room was dark knight and before knight was MIUI 2.3.7 v10 smth like that... and all those versions i instaled today...:O
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reAly:
Just use a stock rom first. I think a 3 parted with a pit file is the best way ;-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rankoradza:
can you explain me what it means??? I really don't understand :O... stock and that... if there is one detailed explanation it would be just great :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You say that you can't turn on the phone? Even to download mode? (hold volume down + home, then press power and hold all three) If the phone doesn't come on at all, it sounds like you are screwed, and have to take the phone to a service center. Or get a jig. And I have doubts that a jig will work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rankoradza:
yes, it can to download mode, just i didnt know how it calles :D i meant it is odin :) nvm... what to do now? just if you start with explaining... give me full explanation so i can't mess up again :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I'd grab one of the later stock ROMs from Intratech's thread here. That thread also has detailed instructions in the first post.

But first of all, how sure are you that you have a GT-I9100? Look under your battery at the label. What model number does that label say? You want to make sure you use a ROM intended for your model of phone. Otherwise you will end up right where you're starting now - with your phone not working.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
If you have an I9100 device Go to the thread given to you in the previous posts and read the first few posts calmly and thoroughly till you understand it.

Odin will be your best bet.

Download mode on your device is power+home+volume down all pressed together until it's boots.

Read the info in intratechs thread that you were linked to its all there.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleepycat3:
And no matter what ROM you use, DO NOT use the .pit file and DO NOT tick re-partition.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snakeforhire:
Why not ? sounds like his partition scheme got a little messed up ion the process, couldn't hurt to repartition.. I do it all the time, tried it accidentally the first time, it didin't even wipe the contents of my internal SD (probably because the same partition layout got flashed than the one that was on the device).

Nowadays I do it everytime I flash a stock rom that provides a .PIT file. I mean if it's packaged with the ROM, it's certainly not for nothing, they can't be that dumb at samsung.. :p
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
I've been getting into theming, and I'm trying to get together Photoshop templates for application and status bar icons. Searching here and doing the Google yields some results for the former -- I've found sources for PSD duplicates of the most popular app icons (Gmail, Maps, Market, etc.), for example, as well as others -- but I'm not having any luck finding customizable status bar icons (data type, signal strength, wi-fi signal, etc.) in PSD format. I don't mind doing the heavy lifting on customizing the icons themselves, but any help you guys (especially the more expert themers) could provide regarding sources for these icons in PSD format would be greatly appreciated.

And yes, I know all about the UOT Theme Kitchen. :) It's a wonderful resource that I've used several times already, but I'd also like to be able to do this on my own, both for learning purposes and to be able to eventually create unique looks for future themes.

Thanks in advance!
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
(Bumping because this thread might have been missed in all the activity around here.)

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Hmmm. No hints? No suggestions? Hard to believe that no one has any information on PSD-format icons, what with all of the themers who frequent this forum. Surely someone can give a struggling guy a friendly, helping hand. Perhaps the Christmas holiday has kept them busy. ;)
[Android Themes] nerdo:
Finding such sources would be extremely helpful!

I used to unpack apk(s) to get icons (png) that I like and want to change a bit, lots of work though and still having issues understanding dealing with 9.png

Hopefully someone could help!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
Now I have a problem ... see my Official GB that I took a nandroid back up works perfectly with signal and etc ..

and right now I'm on ICS, But I like to customize more like when I had Gingerbread with Theme chooser and also ninja morph and etc .. and also some of the games I play in class FC on ICS

now for me.. I went to like 3 different CM7 roms but I get the same thing every time!

What happens is that It doesn't have any bars in the setup wizard .. and after I go to airplane mode and off (Like you usually have to with Mobilicity ) It takes a while to get signal .. but it's not regular signal; My phone goes roaming ... Anyway to get CM7 working on my Mobilicity Nexus S with 3G and non-roaming status when I'm in my house and etc -_-
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
Ok now even The Nandroid I took before flashing any rom doesn't even work anymore!? WTFlyingF!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
You probably flashed a ROM containing a different radio, the new one shipped with ICS for 9020t users. You can flash a previous one to see if that helps you. You probably had KD1 or KF1.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
my baseband says I9020XXKD1 on ics ... no '20t'

I tried flashing KD1 again on GB .. still no work :\
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Have you tried manually restoring your EFS folder? I hope you made a backup, or your ROM did when you installed it...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
My ICS is working properly though without restoring ...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
BBBBBBBBBBBBBUMP...

Brainmasters GB MIUI works perfectly .. but I need CM7
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braneless:
You need to wipe system and boot when switching between gb and ics. Data and dalvik wipe won't cut it.

In cwm mount menu, format everything except sd card, then restore your gb backup.

EDIT: do not wipe efs files while in mounts & storage, unless you already have an efs backup.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoke_weed:
Yeah I did that when I switched to a GB just now and it works :D Thanks..

When it tells you to go in download mode ya cant your kinda there with that screen just install drivers like it says.I tried just flash nothing happened then clicked bootloaders then flashed again then my phone went in rec mode.Then clicked reboot and all back to where i started.Good luck.

ok so Im going to install the drivers on windows again then try to put it in download mode? right sorry im a noob
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] digitallure:
It may not say it's in download mode. If you still see the computer icon, it's in download mode. The heimedall may be the best route for this issue. Just flash and you'll see the status bar and the rest details of what it's doing? I no need to worry about getting in flash mode. Just make sure you have the drivers installed.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:
Hey im noob too just install and flash if the phone still looks the same in your pic like mine did then check the bootloaders box the flash again.That got me back up and running.Im a happy camper again :)

Can't hurt. Also make sure the cable length isn't too long. Some have reported problems using longer cables.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Essentially, this screen is download mode. If you plug in usb after the phone is on this screen, you may not be able to connect to the phone.

Instead, pull the battery and put it back in. Try to get to normal download mode by holding vol+ and vol- then plug in the usb cable. Dont let go of the volume buttons until you either see download mode or the 'pc <-> phone' screen.

Either way you should be able to odin or heimdall at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dmonleo:
This is what we did, get Odin set up, get your files to flash the stock ROM. Plug USB into CPU. Now before you plug your phone up make sure battery is charged. With phone off, insert battery, while holding vol down + power button....you should see the download screen appear (yellow) triangle. Then proceed to flashing.

If Odin is not responding, wait..you will probably see the COM5 box highlighted then cycle on and then off. You will have to syncronize when you press start. When it stays highlighted you should see the status bar on screen of your device.

I got it the day it came out.

The game's actually a very generic grind-festy mess that falsely boasts itself as the mobile equivalent of Elder Scrolls.

It comes with a 60MB data install that comes directly from your phone storage instead of using the sd card (even with all the adb tricks, it still sucks 47.40MB off your phone), they straight-up backed out on their word about making it work with Xperia PLAY's analog touch-pads and then stopped responding to their fanbase as soon as the issue was brought up.

Oh and BTW, the only reason it has so many 5-stars is because they bribe you to give it 5 stars with free coins, and won't stop slapping you in the face with the prompt window until you agree to it.
