[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GuestK00468:
Hey guys,

Here is my second review among many coming for the phone. This one is about the Ballistic HC Case for the Samsung Infuse which works well with our T989

I purchased his off Amazon and decided to test my luck because I was in dire need a heavy duty case. Enjoy!

Ballistic HC Case

[YOUTUBE]RRLnd7qMTkg[/YOUTUBE]​

Pros:

-Tight Fit

-Great Protection

-High Quality Inner Shell

Cons:

-Ballistic could have done a better job with the Rubber outer shell

-Not designed for our phone two who slight modifications have to be made.​

If you notice anything I should change or features you would rather have me talk about please let me know.

Closer Pictures of the two areas that need to be modified will be posted later.

TO BUY: Ballistic HC Case w/ Holster for Samsung Infuse 4G i997, Black
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zander145:
Does the SG case fit aswell? Its much cheaper, and comes in red!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GuestK00468:
It will, but I would wait till I get my video review up for the phone. There are a few things that need to be noted. Similar issues might be the same for the SG case.

-EDIT: Btw the T989 has its own SG series case.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GuestK00468:
OP Updated with video and other features.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] talltexan:
how much did you pay for this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GuestK00468:
I put that amazon link up there. It was 24$ Which was the price I paid for some D30's so definitely worth it for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SladeNoctis:
Nice review

Awesome case for the price, it cost around 18 bucks. Pretty great since these are meant to retail for $50.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FluffyBra:
The white one won't fit?!

Hey! I saw your video and thought about buying one for mine. Turns out that I can't fit the white T989 in it. The case doesn't fit correctly and falls apart when I drop it :/ I didn't shave down the volume area yet, but I will do that soon. I just want to know if that's the problem. (the volume shaving thing)

Thanks! :D

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] effingpace:
I've tried just about everything you've posted and it was all super fast on my prime. I would do a factory reset just in case.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
Try deleting cache and data from the apps.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] prayformojo:
I was also getting the warning about android.process.media in HC and have seen it once since ICS. Everything else has been snappy as hell though. Not sure what to make of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yumms:
Reboot, that fixed the lag for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HereToStay:
I too was having a very laggy experience last night/this morning. I finally resorted to doing a factory reset in hopes this would clear things up...it did!!! Everything is fast/smooth. I would try that and see if it clears things up for you as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deadwolfbones:
I notice that you're downloading during all of these screenshots. When I first updated to ICS, the first thing I did was update 11 apps from the Market. While downloading/installing the updates, the Prime was very slow, even on Performance mode. Once the downloads/installs finished, it went back to being uber-snappy.

It displayed the same behavior on HC for me, fwiw.

I'm also getting the android.media.process error.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Itaintrite:
Here's betting a full factory reset will fix the problems.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
I'm actually just downloading some articles for gReader - nothing more. That was another issue of mine - gReader took 40 minutes to download 6/127 articles - I had to close it, reopen it (and repeat) in order to stop the downloads.

Before I took some of the screenshots, I had already actually cancelled the downloads - but couldn't get the arrow to stop until I opened the app back up and shut it down a few times...

EDIT - Even after the downloads finally stopped (as seen in the last screenshot) - I was still experiencing the same thing...

Looks like a factory reset after work it is - boy - what a pain in the butt that is...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] magicpork:
didn't get any of those issues..everything is much smoother now with ICS...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
I'll finally be getting off of work shortly - I'll do the factory reset when I get home. Any suggestions before I do so (things to look out for)?

Here's another interesting tid-bit - I just did another hard-reset (kept getting that android.process.media error) - and after I did so, I checked the App settings and saw this (of course, right after I cleared the android.process.media error that popped up immediately after I entered my PIN):

It originally started at around 374MB used - and then steadily crept up. Seriously? Does the OS take up this much RAM? (And if you're wondering - I'm in "balanced" mode.)

Oh, and a funny thing happened when I tried to take the first screenshot...

Come on...seriously? The thing was on for LITERALLY 2 minutes and I got this error twice!

=-/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
Android is designed to fill available memory with apps it thinks you will use and close them when it needs more memory, so its using it up by design not because of being poorly managed.

Mine lagged until I reboot and let the update settle for about 30 mins, so far it screams and I don't have the android.media errors....

Have you tried to find the app in settings and clear its data?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
What app? How would I know? (No sarcasm - I'm new to Android so I'm not really sure where else to look for running apps other than in the "Running" section of "Apps" under settings).

I didn't even get the chance to run a single app after a hard reset and I'm getting the error (multiple times)...

I'm home now - and since I barely have anything on this tablet anyway, I'm just going to do a full factory reset.

If Android needs some time to settle after a major update, I suppose I could let it sit for 30 minutes or so before I pull the ICS update on the factory reset unit...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
Well, I went ahead an did a factory reset last night - and then another after I was experiencing the same problems (this time I didn't "restore" from my Google account).

Seems the TP can't handle things like: browsing the Android market whilst downloading Angry Birds. I thought the quad core was good at multi-tasking - but if this thing lags and stutters while you're downloading a single app - even making the market become non-responsive during the download of a single file, then it's just not the tablet for me.

I gave it a shot - it's going back to Amazon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] andyxover:
I too was getting that weird android. ....media message,

And I figure maybe one of my apps were incompatible,

so I did a factory reset. And I'm glad I did, everything feels so much better afterwards. Keep in mind this is a major update, obviously there'd be some incompatibility with the apps and setting you have on your device. I kinda sucks having to reinstall all the apps again, but in reality its really not that difficult, there are many apps that can help you restore all your backup apps. And also, this is the first release of ICS on prime, nothing is perfect on the first release, there are ought to be bugs that needs to be squashed. And I'm sure it will only get better and better. You still got a good 3 weeks before the return period, who knows, Asus might have an update before that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Meanee:
Mine was extremely laggy after upgrade. I left it alone for 30 minutes and rebooted. Came back smooth as butter.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
You know - I did give it a shot - but I don't think I should have to wait for my $600 tablet to "settle" for 30 minutes before I can use it. It's a quadcore - it SHOULD be the fastest, least laggy tablet out there. That's just not the case.

I'll just see what else CES and the next couple of months have to offer - I'm not really in a hurry. I just jumped on this because, spec-wise, it SHOULD be the best tablet on the market (by far). If I'm getting lag while downloading a single app from the marketplace, then I don't think it'll get "better" as time rolls on...

Couple that with the non-existent GPS, I'm really left with nothing more than a Kindle Fire (with the same performance level).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Meanee:
You never know what kind of upgrade process is still running there. That's why I have it a little bit of time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
That's true, but that's why you have a quadcore, no? So it can do more than one thing at once?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mithrandir007:
Having to wait for 30 minutes after a major update of the OS is no big deal, and doesn't sound far fetched.

It's not like you have to wait 30 minutes each time you reboot, just once, then everything should be very fast all the time.

You're saying that the performance of the tablet is not what it should be, but you should understand that you most likely have a faulty unit, and that most people don't have any performance problems like you do.

Still, feel free to return it and wait for the next big thing, hopefully you won't get a faulty unit then, or you're bound to wait quite a while ;)
[Droid X General] joemcg:
Has anyone had any luck getting a Fire to connect to the Adhoc Wifi thru their X? Running a rooted stock X with Barnacle, Open Garden & Wifi Tether Beta10 & 11. Fire is rooted stock with the Zt-180 app installed to try to get the Fire to use Adhoc Wifi. Set the app up to use my Droid in Adhoc mode and can connect to the DROID but no apps work. Have tried some of the other phone profiles as suggested but with no luck. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XisXis:
Hi.

I think i've screwed up in trying to root my Desire HD and i would need your help to unbrick it. Let me explain the process.

I had 2.3.3 - 2.50.405.2 installed on my DHD and decided to update it to 2.3.5 (Sense 3.0) - 3.12.405.1. So far, so good. I downloaded the RUU (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe) and installed it with no problems, getting a fresh stock version.

Then i tryed to root it using an aahk version i had here in my pc (aahk-29102011), and that seemed to be the problem.

When i used it, after successfully starting the update process, it failed leaving my phone in the red exclamation point error screen, after the phone reboots always 2 times, where i can access the Android system recovery (3e) with the following options:

- Reboot system now

- Apply sdcard:update.zip

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

I already tryed all the options with no sucess.

- rebooting the phone, just gets me to the same screen over and over. Even taking out the battery and turning it on doesnt help here.

- I tryed to apply an update.zip, getting the ROM.zip from the RUU, placing it in the root directory of the sdcard, but i get the error E:signature verification failed

- wiping both data/factory reset and cache didnt help either.

I saw some info that booting the phone into bootloader mode would allow me to connect it to my PC and try to update it, but when i press the - volume button followed by the power button, the phone just boots normally and comes to the 3e screen.

Maybe the stock RUU doesn't allow bootloader?

Is there a way so that i can just flash back the RUU or another ROM, either by a signed update.zip or another way?

Thanks in advance for the help.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devenk2c:
Put your sd card in another phone, download a new Rom, put your phone into recovery, wipe cache, wipe date, then flash the new Rom. That should work. (:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XisXis:
Got it to boot into bootloader just now.

Guess my - volume button is a bit loose and i have to press it hard...

Fingers crossed.. will keep the thread updated...

Actually the phone is not having any relevant issue using it apart from this message :confused:.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arabuli91:
HI

My captivate i897 has been bricked (I think soft).

It start and after boot logo restarts.

I tried to enter download mode with key combination vol up/down, power, remove/insert battery, plug USB, but non of these worked, I've tried all combinations ( I think volume buttons don't work.

pls tell me if there is any method to enter download mode without using vol up/down buttons

thanks in advance
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
^ That, or, if you can use your phone normally, download terminal emulator and run the command "su", hit enter, then "reboot download".

There's a thread in my signature that has even more options (Captivate Connection blah blah blah).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arabuli91:
I can't use it, it loops on boot logo when starting, and on battery charging logo when USB is plugged in.

Is there any program which can detect phone when it's not in download nor recovery mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Adb can while it's looping...install the Android sdk...open a command prompt, change directories to where adb is

Plug the phone in while lopping,

Run the command

Adb devices

If it sees it then run

Adb reboot download

[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
UPDATE 3: I've got it back to as stock as I can get it. I think I'm going to just return it and get a new one. Thank you all for your help.

UPDATE 2: As of right now, I'd like to completely remove FFF from the device, but I can only use fastboot to do it. I have absolutely no adb access. Is there a way?

UPDATE: Here is a video showing what is happening to my KF: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH6oUg1NmC0

I hate to start another thread about boot loops/bricking, but I'm not sure what's going on with my fire.

I had CM7 installed successfully since the day after Christmas. This morning I woke up and my Fire was being really sluggish, so I rebooted it (I did not select reboot into recovery).

After it powered on, I was stuck at the CM7 boot screen (with the skateboarding android). I let it sit, but no luck. I went into TWRP to try and restore the backup I made of the stock rom. It looked successful, but when I rebooted I was stuck at the Kindle Fire boot screen.

Next, I tried wiping the device and re-installing CM7, but I received an error (something along the lines of E:Error unable to find /tmp/sideload/blahblah).

So I again restored my backup of the stock rom. Now when I power on my Fire I see the yellow triangle, then the kindle fire logo, yellow triangle, kindle fire logo, and it just keeps repeating. The problem is I am unable to connect to adb because the PC only seems to recognize the adb device for a few seconds after the yellow triangle, which does not give me enough time to fix the problem.

Any ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
looks like you'r out of battery ! the kf is rebooting !

would take the wall charger and charge for an hour

it's not possible to charge with the computer - it lasts forever

then it should respond in a stable state
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Recovery shows my battery level to be at 53%. I've got it on the charger now, but I have a feeling there is something else going on.

Also, I am unable to mount my Fire's SD to my computer in recovery. It looks like it is working, but my computer never acknowledges it.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
maybe because your last installation failed

nevertheless i would try to charge and then go in twrp and retry the installation

if that's not sucessful i would try to switch the kf to fastboot and copy a new rom. stock or prerooted stock or cm7 - whatever you like

in twrp there is a point "mount" - sdcard - then you should get it from computer
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Thanks for the reply. Is adb required to get into fastboot? The problem is that I am unable to get into adb because my computer only sees the Fire for about 1 second. When I go into device manager, I don't see it at all.

EDIT: Yeah, I see the mount in TWRP, but it does not do anything when I select it.
[Kindle Fire General] jvizz:
Hi Im a beginner but Id like to try to help :

In case you become desperate ignore twrp's battery display and try wall charger.

Anorher idea id have is to shut down throughr twrp and start up then instead of rebooting.
[Kindle Fire General] skourg3:
ADB is needed to get into fastboot, but it's quick. If you use KFU, you can probably hit the option during the couple seconds you have available. I would say your best bet, however, is booting into twrp, doing a full wipe of system, cache, davlik cache, and maybe data, and then trying the rom install again.
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
So this time it looks like the installation worked in TWRP, but after reboot now I'm stuck at the CM7 boot screen. This is at least some progress, so when I get home I'll see what I can do.

Sent via my internet connected mobile cellular telephone.
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Well, the battery is definitely not the issue. I've been trying to get fastboot, but the problem is the fact that I can not get adb. Has anyone else had issues with getting adb? I've already tried to install the drivers, and that doesn't work.

EDIT: I've tried issuing "adb devices" from the command prompt repeatedly as soon as I hear the ding until it disconnects a second later, but still I have had no luck.

Also, I found this thread in which someone else appears to have had a similar issue to mine.

[Q] New kind of unfixable Super Brick?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
at the moment adb is useless - you should try to get the device in fastboot mode - correctly recognised from your computer - then work with fastboot commands - if you don't get that then your next opinion is buying or making a factory cable - but we should try to avoid that ...
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
I can not seem to get fastboot to work either. Does fastboot rely on adb? Or do you just run the .exe file? I tried to run it, and nothing happened.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
fastboot has nothing to do with adb - calling just the exe does nothing -

you have to issue fastboot commands

ok have reread the whole thread and have some ideas:

your currently stuck at the cm7 boot screen ?

have you used the "stock rom version" to wipe data and cache partitions as described here ?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1390773

perhaps it will help to wipe data/cache with twrp ...
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Just wanted to let you know I updated the OP with a video showing what is happening to my KF.

Haven't tried that particular rom yet, but I have wiped data and cache and attempted to re-install CM7.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
great idea with the video !!!
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
OK, so I restored my original rooted kindle rom, but I still can't get into fastboot because of the problem I showed in the video. It is doing exactly the same thing, just instead of the CM7 boot screen, it is the Kindle Fire boot screen.

Is is possible to get into fastboot without the computer? Can anyone think of a reason why I would not be able to mount my device in TWRP?
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
I just want to understand something about fastboot... can you upload and flash roms with it? Or can you only get TWRP / FFF with it? I ask because I already have them, and I still can't do anything (mount from inside TWRP doesn't work). Thanks!

Sent via my internet connected mobile cellular telephone.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
with fastboot you can install the newest fff and if you need twrp

but with the newest fff you can issue ""fastboot oem format"

see here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369405

that should solve every issue ...
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Cool. I just ordered one of SkOrPn's cables, so once I get it I'll be sure to give an update. Thanks for all the help so far!
[Kindle Fire General] foxdog66:
The cable isn't need when you have the FFF bootloader, in fact, when your computer does see the device for the short amount of time shown in the video, fastboot is active. It's a feature of FFF. Fastboot is a command line tool like adb but is used for different things. It comes in Android sdk which if you have that, you should update the tools packages in the Android manager and it will update adb and fastboot. It looks like something is not working correctly in twrp and the OS is failing to load. I'm not sure you need to oem format tho.....

At some point you had to have used fastboot to install twrp and/or FFF.... Unless you used adb dd? :what:

Anyway, I can help more but it's late where I am, need to sleep. Was going to write more but... Need sleep lol. I'll post some questions and check back tomorrow.

Have you used adb before? Do you know if platform-tools is in your environment variables PATH? In other words, can you open up cmd and type adb or do you need to "cd" to platform-tools then use adb? If you know where adb is located? If so, is a file called fastboot in there? (Maby called fastboot.exe)
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
Yep, I've used adb successfully, and it is set up as an environmental variable. I actually installed FFF and TWRP with the KFU. Problem is I think something else is botched; perhaps it is TWRP itself, since I am unable to mount from TWRP. I'll try again when I get home.

Sent via my internet connected mobile cellular telephone.
[Kindle Fire General] mcimo88:
I just checked in my platform-tools folder where adb resides, and there was no file with any semblance to fastboot. Should I place fasboot.exe into this folder?
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
you can go to the tools folder of kfu - there are all necessary commands

you don't need the sdk at all
[Kindle Fire General] foxdog66:
I would put the tools folder in PATH also, then you can type "android" in cmd and the sdk manager will pop up. Check the tools box and update adb and fastboot. The other options are for emulating different Android versions.
