I use it. Been using it religiously for a while now. Not sure about battery life but I like the fact that I don't have to constantly touch my screen to keep it awake.great for reading, well, anything. Will turn you're screen off during inactivity. I only use the free version though.

Hi all,

I just trade my old phone for a tmobile gs2, everything was fine until I decided to do a factory reset, now I'm stuck on factory mode with a screen saying

"product name: sgh-t989

custom binary download: no

current binary; samsung official

Downloading...Do not turn off target!!"

What should I do? Help please, thanks in advance.

Hold the power button for 10 seconds.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LibertarianMe:
Hi Alphadog32,

If you can still look at this 3-yo thread, can please help with a variation of this problem?

The same Download mode message came up permanently after I simply rebooted my GS2. It has been running a branch of AOKP 4.4.4 ROM for about four months. It had occasional problems - apps sometimes crash randomly and data mode sometimes goes down to EDGE until a reboot. I rebooted it because it was stuck in EDGE data mode again.

I held it for 10 seconds while the Up/Down Volume buttons. The phone started vibrating constantly both times until I let go, then came up to download mode again. It did not respond to Volume + key.

I also connected to Odin 3.07. Windows says that the last USB device has malfunctioned and Windows cannot recognize it. Hence Odin also does not see the phone on any COM Port. I am plugged with OEM cable.

Since the phone is running a non-Samsung ROM, maybe I need to install USB drivers other than Samsung's to have Odin work?

If so, which ones are correct?

Can you suggest anything else?

[Kindle Fire General] acmys:
Kindle Fire stuck on Blank Black screen.

Hard rebooted many many times. Did plugged in, usb'd in, not plugged, etc.

About an hour ago it came to life while plugged into Parallels, could see the screen. Was working fine.

Now it's back on the blank black screen with nothing. The green button is on when charging, and when I turn it on, the screen turns on but is black and blank. If I slide my finger across the screen at the right place, it mounts.

So what's the problem? Before this all I did was press Root in burrito, and I didn't really do anything, so it wasn't rooted. I probably unplugged it a few times.
[Kindle Fire General] Zombiepiratez:
Does your computer even recognize that your kindle is plugged in? Even as "Unknown" or just "kindle"?
[Kindle Fire General] acmys:
"Kindle ADB Composite" whatever on both Mac and PC.

And it mounts fine and even turned "on" once so that's fine and stuff.
[Kindle Fire General] Zombiepiratez:
In that case, I just posted a tutorial on how to fix this. It might work for you. Use caution.

But first, Using Kindle Fire Utility (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1399889)

What is the "Boot Status" of you Kindle? (Check this using run.bat)
[Kindle Fire General] acmys:
ADB is On,

Boot is either 4000 or i can make it the fast boot one (4002 i think).
[Kindle Fire General] acmys:
I just unplugged it in 0.9.1 Utility and it turned on for a moment and went back to blank black.

Anyone think Amazon is doing something remotely?
[Kindle Fire General] Zombiepiratez:
Actually, this just happened to me XD Hold the power button for about 15 seconds, and then release.

I am completely new to Android and I just got the galaxy nexus. I read up on rooting and I would like to try it out. How do I tell if im GSM or LTE?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
is verizon your carrier? if so, you're LTE/cdma.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I515 or i9250. Verizon4g lte on back or just google or samsung? I9250 and google on back are gsm version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Well, where did you get it from?

(quick responding here..) :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edude03:
Well it depends, if you have the Verizon Galaxy Nexus you are on either CDMA or LTE, LTE is denoted by a 4G symbol while CDMA is denoted by EVDO/1X/ or 3G symbol.

If you imported your GN and you are using it on any other carrier then it is GSM, and you are either on Edge, GPRS UMTS or HSDPA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enaybee:
another quick method is to look at your purchase receipt, if you paid $300 or less its LTE. If you have paid more than $600 then its GSM/HSPA+ ... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:

For some reason, all the changes are lost after I close text editor (I did save the changes obviously).

Okay ignore that, it was a problem with RootExplorer so I used a different program. But I have to turn off my phone before the changes to build.prop take effect. Can you tell me what programs might have issues now that I'm spoofing another device? It seems like an awful lot of trouble to have to reboot my phone every time I want to play a game.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] renegadefunk:
Probably nothing just leave it until you're done with the game then switch it back.

Hello guys!

Im new to the forum but i was using teamhacksungs ics port since middle of december from build 6 on to build 12 without any problems. but last weekend (my i9000 has been on build 13 for some days) i took a look on my phone to get the time and then i saw it was booting. but nothing happened it was stuck in a bootloop.

i removed the battery for some hours and tried to boot but it still gets a bootloop.

im not able to get into recovery mode, only downloadmode is possible.

help me plz, what can i do?

thx for your answers

thank you very much! i got it
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avltree:
The bootloop problem was covered several times - it happens kinda randomly, so the best workaround would be:

1. If you can boot into recovery - flash the same ROM again.

2. If not - go into download mode, flash stock ROM, install ICS again.

In the attached pictures you can see two icons in the top left of the notification bar. I want to get rid of or disable the one on the left. They both pop up for an sms for some reason, and I only use the stock messaging app.

The only way to get rid is to pull down the notification bar and press clear.

It serves no purpose to me. I've frozen whatever I could think that was doing it in titanium but I clearly haven't found it.

And either I'm crap at google or no one else has a problem with it, but I'd appreciate any help that can be offered.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
When you click on the notification, what app does it open?

What other messaging applications do you have instead of the stock messaging client?

List your Market apps here and we may be able to help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
Seems to me that you have two SMS apps, so the problem will be solved if you disable notification on the other app or uninstall it if you use stock SMS app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irish-sid:
Thanks.

I don't believe I have any separate messaging apps (apart from the likes of Whats App).

I have always used the stock. I did get rid of it before but I can't for the life of me remember how, I recently wiped my phone and started again, restored titanium and it's popping back up. I assumed Titanium would've kept whatever it was frozen.

Easiest way to list my market apps? I have a lot.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] koodiifin:
Hi I've been looking at the kernels developed for the Galaxy GIO, designed for overclocking, a2sd, etc. It looks like they have been developed specifically for the GT-S5660 (Euro Version) of the GIO. I tried flashing Delano Custom kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405139) via CWM recovery with the 0.8 version of ArpegGioMod ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263025). This resulted in a endless bootloop so I restored using CWM. It seems that the boot.img on the GT-S5660M is different then the Euro version and therefore the kernel must be modified to work with our version. Has anybody had any luck with custom kernels on their GT-S5660M? I'm willing to make modifications to the kernels if I can be steered in the right direction. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Darkshado:
Hello koodiifin,

Let's backtrack a bit here:

The GT-S5660 is indeed sold in the UK, and elsewhere in Europe, but no US carrier sells the Gio. Your 5660M will get 3G with AT&T while roaming stateside.

The post in Delanoister's kernel thread doesn't state explicitly, but if its init scripts expect an ext4 partition where there's an RFS one, like with my ArpegGioMod ROMs released so far, it will bootloop like you describe.

Also: if the init scripts expect an "sd-ext" partition on the SD card and can't find one, boot will hang at this stage.

If you're a bit of a programmer yourself and want to dabble with the kernel, get the source for the 5660M from Samsung (on their open source website).

Goodbye,

Darkshado
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] koodiifin:
Darkshado, I installed your stock rooted ROM then flashed CWM recovery, then flashed delanos latest kernel.

Overclocking works

3G works

GSM works

Bluetooth works

But wifi simply says "error" as it's status. And I couldn't get it to work. Does the "m" version have a different wifi driver? I was so surprised when my phone actually booted up with the kernel installed. Lol. But I can't really use the phone without wifi. Have you tested any kernels on your phone? I downloaded the source for our phones firmware, so I will definitely be looking at the kernel soon. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] islanda73:
Im sure we've all seen the 10 predictions about 2012 and how HTC will be making the new jellybean phone because Samsung is too busy with the nexus tablet.

My question is if HTC does make the jellybean nexus would you want it to beats audio if so why or why not and would it be a dealbreaker to you staining the only bloatware free phone?

I personly would like them to make it more than just an EQ setting if they insist on putting it on the nexus
[General Questions and Answers] slapshot30:
HELL to the NO. Beats doesn't do jack. It's overpriced garbage for crappy sound quality. Plus it just makes our favorite high end devices cost even more money. Want real EQ capabilities? Try out Poweramp or DSP manager. Want actual good sound quality? Try out an old Samsung Galaxy device like an infuse with that Wolfson DAC. I'm still pissed Samsung went for the crappy Yamaha and ditched the Wolfson with the GSII.
[General Questions and Answers] chewbz:
Yeah leave the beats stuff out of the nexus. I'm pretty excited if HTC is really making the new device, hopefully they ditch qualcomm and get an omap with the new powerVR gpu.

Other than that I wish it not to but uber thick like htc's most recent offerings. Maybe like a revamped nexus one body?

Let's take wal-mart quality headphones and mask the terrible sound quality with reverberations that are likely extremely unhealthy in such close proximity to your eardrums. Then, we'll market them with the name of a rapper who's greatest contribution is a piece of white trash with mommy issues out of the trailer park and having him rap out of his nose... Yeah, sounds like the kind of company HTC might sign up with.

I must be in the minority as I like it. I don't use the stock player much but I did test it out and have a set or Dre headphones and it does make a difference. But unless that is your thing it most likely isn't for you. Beats out my old galaxy s any day of the week.

[General Questions and Answers] The Janitor Mop:
I'm on a headphone audiophile forum and anything Beats related is recognized as utter crap. It's horrible bass boosting software that makes you say bye bye to a flat, natural response curve. Beyond that, while it increases the impact of the bass, it muddies it up because the sub bass is overwhelmed by the hit of the others.

I don't want to go into it because the discussions are lengthy (but fascinating), but essentially the people who known what they're talking about know that Beats is junk.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Dr. Dre actually did alot more for music than discover eminem. He is one of the great producers of our time, and The Chronic 2001 is one of the greatest albums ever...and HTC did it as a business move, and you know what? It worked. It marketed the phones to a whole new group.
[General Questions and Answers] slapshot30:
It did work. They realized kids were getting smartphones at a lower and lower age and kids/teens love Beats because it makes them "cool". Lets think about if HTC would've teamed up with Audio Technica, Sennheiser, etc. It wouldn't have NEAR the effect as it has with having Beats.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Exactly. With most of society it is the name that sells. Honestly, there are alot of things that I buy because I am dedicated to a brand. Shoes, jeans, cars...we all have brands that we favor. It was a business move, and a damn good one.
[General Questions and Answers] optimus x:

First of all, regardless of who Beats are marketed by, they are made by MonsterCable. In case you were unaware MonsterCable makes some of the highest quality studio cables and other audio engineering equipment on the market today.

Meh... Monster is overpriced. Hence why beats are overpriced too. And if they make such great audio equip then why would they have the abomination beats? Sound quality worth half (if not less than half) of the retail price.
