Plug it in for an hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zlatty:
I'm in the same boat.

I can plug it into my computer and it'll show up as INTF2 and not accept any drivers. On the other computer it comes as INTF0. It's been charging for hours now.

:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aridon:
Return it. If its been charging for hours and a battery pull can't get anything to work just get a new one. Especially since you don't mention flashing anything or making any changes that could cause that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Hold your horses before you go running back to Verizon looking for a replacement.

If it is not rooted feel free to take it back.

If your phone is rooted do not take it back to Verizon unless you would like to pay for a replacement. Plug it in to a power outlet and let it sit, a couple times now this has happened to me where it wouldn't even show it was charging then a hour / hour and a half later it would start charging, then boot normally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zlatty:
I had it charging for about 30 mins. I unplugged it. Removed the battery. Sacrificed an apple. Prayed to Zeus. Then put the battery in. My prayers have been answered and the phone booted up. I guess the trick is to give it a min or two between the unplugging and re-plugging the battery. :cool:

All hail the mighty Zeus, who only demands the sacrifice of apple's for our devices to be resurrected!

I switched to e4gT from evo 4g.. loved the phone at first.. but now getting very annoyed by it..

in fact.. it's a great little computer .. but basically all the phone functions don't work consistently for me.. and internet browsing is good.. but hindered by the slow network speed.. (even with wimax)

GPS... sometimes lock quickly.. sometimes it takes minutes.. using the phone as a golf gps is a joke now because it's never accurate enough... my evo 4g was much better... and yes.. that's after i use gps tools to reset.. update gps.conf via root explorer .. etc etc.. and no.. rebooting everytime is really NOT a solution

Bluetooth... i paired it with my car... and when i get into the car.. it's shown as connected to my car.. and music actually streams to my car audio.. which is cool.. but somehow.. sometimes voice call will NOT get directed to my car's audio... and bluetooth button on the dialer will be greyed out... not sure if anyone else is having the issue ... when that happened.. voice call get NO sound at all.. not from car, not from the headset... as bluetooth is greyed out on dialpad.. i would have to basically disable bluetooth from settings to actually talk

WIFI... every now and then... it will lose connection to my home wifi... a recycle of the wifi will fix the issue.. i never have any problem with my evo 4g.. and even right now.. my other device (iphone 4, ipad) all stay connected.. so i am sure it's not my router.. it's annoying.... and this happens even when my phone is near the router... and almost always happens when the phone wakes from asleep

i kept checking forums every day for solution.. and tried many solutions.. but it's still not working consistently... i am curious because I don't see that many complains from other users..

i am rooted on caulkin's rom with rouge stock EL13 kernel / modem

:(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maverick101:
Bluetooth works well.wifi signal goes up and down.but, stays connected.

Gps for me is an issue.sometimes it takes forever to lock on.and when it does

it doesn't stay connected a lot.coming from an evo.my old evo locked on instantly and stayed

connected, even when it was cloudy.disappointing
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
EL26 did a lot of changing in GPS files i hear. Check it out! and i havent noticed wifi or bluetooth issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Android300ZX:
For the Wifi go to Settings-Wireless and Networks- Wifi Settings-Click the menu key-Advanced-Wifi Sleep Policy should be NEVER.

By default it's set up as when the phone goes to sleep.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rgregg504:
If you are experiencing those gps issues something is wrong with the phone. I had the same problem and tried every "fix" nothing worked. Went in to sprint and they exchanged my phone..gps works perfect on the new one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m3ng:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] materijalmen:
..with the bootanimation, yes again...

So, I installed a costum ROM, whit was making big problems for me, changed it, but that sucker bootanimation still there. Deleted from the system/media folder the bootanimation.zip file, replaced the BOOTSAMSUNG and BOOTSAMSUNGLOOP.QMG files....now, i get an animation, but on the startup screen that ugly image still appears...

is there any flashable apk file whic will change back the fon to its stock animation or i can explode this phone?:confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mirko ddd:
find the bootanimation.zip (often located in System/media or in Data/local) and erase it. I usually do this, or, better, go back to samsung stock rom, I advice you XXKI3, is a full rom and it has a pit file. You shouldn t have problem. bye
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Are you talking about the bootscreen BEFORE the bootanimation, by any chance?

If so, that's my cue :D

Grab this: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.hellcat.droiddev.sgs2bootlogo

and go wild on changing it back to w/e you want.

If you grab the file "param.lfs" from a stock ROM update .tar, you can also revert to the original Sammy screen.

If this WASN'T your issue - just silently ignore me :o
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mightylobo:
Hey,

I recently got my Captivate bricked, I was hoping to get some help.

Currently there is no display (No download mode, no recovery)

I had it bricked before and I was able to use the Jig method to bring it back to download mode luckily.

However, it got bricked again. I have tried the jig method (3 resistor) and it won't go. So I purchased a pre-build jig and still it won't go into download mode.

Any other options out there by any chance?

Thank you in advance. :)

I'd like to use my x10mp as an mp3 while working out in the gym and possibly jogging. Using BT earphones seems like a good idea, as there are less wires and clutter.

I would appreciate advice on suitable BT models, namely, in which the earphones don't fall off while exercising, and are solidly built.

TIA,

That looks nice. will it be ok for workouts? i prefer earbud type.

OR if it is better, take your stereo set with you and put it loud in the gym and do the workout. if any of these are bothering.

[HTC Sensation] ishould:
My current case (purchased from the T-Mobile store no less) blocks the GPS satellite signals from reaching my phone. That's not that bad when I'm driving because I can just take it out of the case, but if I need an app like Where's My Droid to work then I need a case that doesn't block signals. Any suggestions? Do all/most cases do this?
[HTC Sensation] ishould:
bump..........
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Nope it's just you lol...

I have many cases and none have blocked my gps signal. Do you get a signal upon taking out the phone from the case? Thats really weird. If you can replicate it each time, I would go to the tmo store and demand a refund and a better case if there is one.

I have used cases from mobi hard clip cases, barely there cases, as well as the Seidio Active cases with kickstand and others. All varied from sizes and thickness and not a single time my gps not worked. Kinda weird.

Currently using an aprolink hybrid tpu/plastic case. No issues there either.

Still the same answer and you are 100% wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] goudeyman95:
I am wondering which ones you guys bought for your players (Obviously those screens are too nice to be scratched :D). I got the Zagg Invisibleshield on their cyber Monday sale for $8
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] SirRhor:
Same thing for me, same promotion. Now, I hate those Zagg guys.

But the important thing I guess is that the screen protector works well.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
I bought a cheap ebay set, used for 2-3 weeks, removed. They scratched too easily. I like it bare! Have nice leather case, hopefully I won't scratch it... or good ones will become available.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] WT Ho:
After trying different types of screen protectors for my phone and tablet, I found that it is best to bare it. Screens produced these days are very tough actually, I don't have any scratches on any devices so far.:D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Entropy512:
These days I only get screen protectors to deal with fingerprints... The Moshi screen protectors AT&T carries are great for this. Problem is that since the SGP5 isn't an AT&T phone, I don't get the usual 50% discount on accessories I get. :)

I had a ZAGG InvisibleShield on my Huawei S7, which was decent, and reminds me I need to eBay that piece of **** tablet. (Whatever you all do - don't buy Huawei products. They've improved build quality a lot, but customer support for their devices SUCKS.)

The SGP5 is a fingerprint/fingersmudge magnet. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
I find there are fewer fingerprints bare than with a protector (at least the cheap ones). A bare screen also cleans much easier. I may try one of those matte anti-fingerprint ones. Bare is so smooth and responsive!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Entropy512:
Yeah, the Moshis I had on my Infuse and have on my GSII are matte anti-fingerprint - love em'!

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] jhndflpp:
i got a skinomi screen protector and carbon fiber skin protector. the screen protector works pretty well, the skin is really just for a little more grip.

i had some issues with shipping, but, long story short, they had some great customer service, and they ended up shipping me two.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] 1776:
I have seen a lot of comments about Zagg that the screen protector feels rubbery or sticky to the touch. Is that correct? How about the ghost armor.

At this point, I have not put anything on. I like the look and touch of the screen, and I the only pocket that I would put my SGP 5 in is my shirt pocket. It has a folio case for traveling.

I would like to keep the screen protected, but just don't know what to use that I have not read bad comments about.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Meticulus:
I have zagg on 2 of my devices and they were both a little sticky feeling for the first week or so, but as you use it, it irons out to a perfect smooth. I love Zagg and I'll get one for every device I own!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] marcusmarcus:
I got a Skinomi screen protector and wood skin for my Archos 70. The skin gave it better grip but after 6 months, the skins small pieces kept falling off. The screen protector though is great. Never coming loose. I had a couple scratches show up on it but after a few minutes they disappeared. Also the bare screen was a finger print magnet but once I go this screen protector on it was much better. Loved Skinomi screen protector so much I ordered one the for my Samsung 5 minutes after I ordered the device itself. Screen protector came before the device so I was able to put it on right away. Looks great, finger prints barely show up, never need to clean off the screen, never got any scratches showing up.

Supposedly the Zagg are made of the same material as the Skinomi. I noticed that it does have a little bit of a rubbery feel which doesn't bother me. It also did have a bit of a sticky feel, but that went away after a while. I thought maybe I got used to the sticky feel but I had one of these on my Archos tablet and the sticky feel went away, then when I got my Samsung and put a skinomi on that I felt the sticky again so it was not that I got use to the sticky feeling, it actually went away (The sticky feeling on my Samsung is now gone). I don't think I'll ever get another mobile device without getting a Skinomi screen (or ZAGG if they happen to be cheaper).

How is the quality, I want a protector for my SGP, too
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
I had a cheap Ebay one on it, but took it off because it got greasy way too fast. I like it bare, I'm not too worried about scratches. I tried scratching it with an exacto knife and it didn't scratch. I carry it around in this case which protects it very well: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...GEOQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327694289&sr=8-1

I also have this case on the device, that gives it a good grip and additional protection.

any tips on how to remove bubbles on screen protectors? they're annoying
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
Remove protector is easiest way. I've been running bare for a month, no scratches yet! Otherwise if you are careful you should be able to get no bubbles. They are usually caused by lint or dust specks. You can try pealing back and using tape to remove the dust, then roll it back down. I have yet to find a protector that feels as good as the raw screen (which seems very durable)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dunca123:
I am using Stealth Shieldz. They are just like Zagg, but a lot cheaper and come with two. They are like 3 dollars on amazon. Absolutely no air bubbles. It is also a tad bit thinner than zagg I believe. It is a great screen protector. Lifetime warranty. So far so good.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
DEAL ALERT: Enter VAL50 as a promotional code when checking out at Zagg and get 50% off your order! I just ordered maximum coverage for my 4.0 for $12.50 + $2.99 Shipping! Pretty decent savings!

Don't forget my thanks button :D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Kaitodoraemon:
id say the Zagg invisible ones work perfectly! just that gotta be a bit careful with the corners.. gotta make sure those parts stick perfectly.. otherwise, its gonna collect dust and it won't stick again :( like wat happened to mine~
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Yeah, I read a tip to use plastic wrap to hold the corners down, I will let you know how it goes!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Well, after a week of use here is my opinion:

First let me say the plastic wrap is a very BAD idea! I stretched it really tight, but then it somehow got to warm and melted on! I have tried scraping and using chemicals to melt it off, still on there!

As far as installation, it was pretty good, corners didn't offer to much trouble.

The back is really nice, gives a good amount of grip!

Now the bad: that grip that is so nice on the back is also present on the front (not nice)! Another negative is the front is not a very snug fit, it leaves about a 1/2 millimeter on each side, and more on the top uncovered!

Now the big one; it has peeled up TWICE on the front in the week I have had it! It sits back down, but leaves bubbles. Once when my baby bro. was playing angry birds, once when I dropped it hiking in the mountains (it did a good job of protecting it, fwiw). This is really disappointing to me, I liked my 2 buck xtreme guard way better, lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] lionsro:
Stealth

I bought off ebay what are called stealth shields, they are like zagg only dont have that rubber feel on the screen i like them much better, and for $4 you get 2 of them shipped, i had a zagg but i did not like it on this device
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Yup, zagg=rip-off! Stealth shieldz or xtreme guard (same manufacturer, I believe) are better for a much cheaper price! As far as lifetime warranty, I doubt you could get xtreme guard to send you a replacement, but just buying a new one would still be cheaper than paying for shipping of a replacement by sagging!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] iJimaniac:
Update to my zagg review; DO NOT BUY INVISIBLE SHIELD! The back protector just peeled up and got a bunch of dirt under the edge just because I stuck it in a leather phone case that was a little snug! Absolute junk! The adhesive they use is worthless! Maybe it is just bad luck, but I doubt it since it has peeled on the front AND back! I am going to rip this junk off and reinstall some awesome xtreme guard for a 10th the price of overated zagg crap!

Hey guys I've got the GSM version and every now and then my signal bars turn grey, this is with full signal even showing 3g buts its grey and won't call out or load data. I'm not a twit and understand that phones loose signal its just strange it comes back randomly also. Very annoying.

I'm on 4.0.1 Google build anyone else get this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fromage2323:
grey full bars

i dont have a technical response to this question other than i only notice this during times of transition between either booting up the phone or switching to wifi on or off equally.

The phone usually checks to sync when it has been on standby and you then hit the power button. If you theoretically switch between wifi and 3g/4g during this time it would force a transition which could yield a situation as you describe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ksc6000:
This happens to me too sometimes. What network do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
You have to find out the true reason why your connection is being interrupted. The bars going grey instead of blue is just reflecting the fact that your connection isn't persistent and you don't have a full sync with Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Blue bars = connection to Google servers

Grey bars = no Google servers

I was having the same issue with 4.0.1, I was getting disconnect from the mobile network almost every 2-3 hours and the only way to get online again was to do a reset. But now with 4.0.2 everything seems to work fine.

My carrier (Simyo in Spain) is a "virtual operator" (MVNO), so I'm thinking that the issue was somehow related with the “data was disconnected due to roaming” bug in 4.0.1.

Hello,

This thread kind of died down but it is very important. Here is the issue logged by other users with Google. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22503

Has anybody managed to find a fix?

I called Samsung yesterday and they advised me to return the phone. I don't feel like being without a phone for 2 weeks. Besides it is sort of proven that it is a Rom issue (am I correct?). What do you say guys, shall i send it to Samsung or wait for an update from Google? The problem doesn't happen very often, every once in a while. I suppose this is why the battery runs out pretty quickly as it tries to connect to a network too often. And when it doesn't establish connection it goes to Airplane mode.

Any more comments on this issue?
