[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pierceye:
If you get a light when you plug it in it's probably not the port. I just had to replace the battery in my Evo, but the symptoms weren't the same as what you described. Mine just quit holding a charge for anything more than about 15 minutes off the charger. Just out of curiosity, what happens when you try to boot into recovery? There's a chance that something went wrong on the last flash. If you can get a decent amount of charge, and can get to recovery, try a fresh flash with a full wipe(data, dalvik and cache) and see what happens. Just make sure you have 35% or better on the battery. If it shuts off halfway through the process it bricks the phone from what I understand.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Clean out the Charger port with Compressed Air. Try different HTC USB Cables, and keep in mind the knock off cables can cause all kinds of issues. But if the screen is not coming on, you can try to RUU it back to Stock 2.2. But if that still doesn't bring the screen back you may have to take it into Sprint.

I flash my G3 often,at least once a week with different ROMs,kernels,themes;)

Will it cause any problem because i have seen that many threads of hard bricking of phones are coming up in the forum:(
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bscraze:
If your com crashes while flashing, or you interior the flashing process then you have a high chance of hard bricking. Otherwise its safe :

There is no limitation on number of times flashing your mobile. It is theoretically infinite. But while flashing if anything goes wrong there might be chances of soft brick or hard brick though. So flash cautiously.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjpalmeida88:
if you always flash roms without bootloader there is a very very small chance to soft brick

you mean hardbrick, right?...coz softbrick is when you get bootloop or you stuck at kernel logo or in the middle of bootanimation, right?...

And yes, you can flash as many times as you want – but remember, there's always a 1% chance of hardbricking (because of anything could happen to your phone, computer, battery in laptop, ...), so 1 flash/week makes 4% chances a month...

I've flashed my phone about 20 times already, of which 1 resulted in a soft brick. But that was because something with the stupid kies went wrong. So my conclusion is.. Flashing is very safe ;) And if you remove bootloaders it's 100% safe from hardbrick, i think. (That's what Kyrillos said)

How to fix it

(sorry for my bad english)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] spartakush:
Ok. Try to pull your battery out for some minutes. If this isn't working i think the only solution is the way to the service. This can be solved with jtag. I had simillar problem with a friend's galaxy mini and going to service was the only solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] xbluer:
try this from your computer:

1. Prepare official firmware files for your phone

2. Open Odin and put all the files on it as on this thread but do it only till step 6..

3. Remove battery, sim card, and micro sd from your phone

4. Connect your phone to your computer by USB

5. Press the downloading mode buttons (Volume down + Home + Power)

6. Release home button and insert the battery..but never release the volume down and power button.

7. your phone should be now enter "downloading mode" and you can release volume down and power button.

8. press start on Odin and your phone should be flasing

9. Your phone should be back alive again. :D

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwald:
I recently flashed my phone with Virtuous Unity, and I've been enjoying the features of Sense 3.0 compared to stock Sense 2.1 (especially the quick settings in the notification pulldown). However, I'm aware that this particular ROM has reached end-of-life...and there are a bunch of Sense 3.5-based ROMs available. I'm wondering what I could expect to gain from them (in general, not any particular ROM), and what (if anything) I'd lose in the transition.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Practically, except a newer look, you won't gain anything.

Cameras aren't perfect for both, and Doubleshot camera works fine on both.

Calendar on 3.5 doesn't look as well in month view, but it lost one of the bugs it had in VU (not in 3.0, since on my friend's stock Desire S with stock Sense 3.0 this bug doesn't happen), when working with Exchange Calendar. Quick Settings are a tiny bit better on 3.5.

Generally, no really good reason to upgrade.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
In my opinion, the improved look of the navbar/dockbar in 3.5 alone is worth the upgrade. :cool:
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayb222:
Not much difference at all. You'll just be messing your front faced camera up of you use 3.5 as opposed to 3.0. (if you apply one of the fixes then you just add more bugs to your regular camera) If sense is what you like then stick with unity. It's at end of life because it's nearly perfect. Back up the rom and check for yourself. 3.5 it's okay but you may realize the bugs in the system or what new it offers isn't really worth the trouble.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
There's nothing wrong with the FFC on Sense 3.5. At least not on the RCMix ROM.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phandemic:
While I am not sure but it seems 3.5 is much more polished. I tried 3.0 but it didn't really wow me. In the sense 3.5 roms I have tried they all seem to have a tweaks under settings which makes it easy for you to change the statusbar and rosie. Also the widget Shortcuts is well worth getting 3.5 imho. Transitions also help a great deal. When going from portrait to landscape instead of a jagged transition it is a smooth rotation and makes the phone feel a lot smoother

In order to flash the EH17 modem from Cyanogen with the EI22 modem can I just flash EH17 through ODIN, or do I need to return to a stock build, update the modem to EH17, then return to Cyanogen?

Background:

I was on EH17 on BML Cyanogen. I flashed EC05 through ODIN, then ran the EC05 -> EI22 delta through Clockwork. After getting EI22 I went to the MTD version of Cyanogen, and currently have a build with WiMAX installed. My battery life has dropped by 4-6 hours since making these changes, and in my office (a very low service area) I've been having a lot more service issues. My instincts tell me to just update the modem because it's probably exists outside of the BML/MTD world, but I do like my phone working. :-)

Buy an Micro SD Card reader (or borrow it from someone) and you can manually move files from SD card to PC. Other than that you can also use this wireless connection thing that requires adb but I'm not sure about it.

And if you're fed up with doing this then you can easily reflash the ron or a different one (Like the person above me said).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:
I don't know if this is even possible, but on my HTC it was possible to change the screen that comes up before the boot animation, it was called a "splash screen" on the Inspire 4G. So in our case it would replace the Samsung Galaxy S2 or GT-i9100 triangle screen.

Sorry if this has been done and I don't know what it's called. I've been following this device for a while and am yet to see anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jjesusfreak01:
Though not a solid answer, here are some thoughts.

When we do an Odin flash of an unsigned OS, this is the screen where the yellow triangle pops up to remind us of our evil ways (its actually an entire new picture that has the triangle on it, as evidenced by the fact that on an i777 this screen reverts to the i9100 one). I do not recall anyone ever mentioning any way to get rid of this screen short of flashing a signed OS or using a jig (no filehacks to remove the triangle). Seeing as these actions are controlled by the bootloader, I could guess, though I can't be sure, that these image files may also be a part of the bootloader. Though it is possible to mod a bootloader, I, and most of the people on this forum would probably admit modding a bootloader to change a bootscreen on these phones may not be worth the risk, as we enter hard brick territory when we mess with these things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] superdog404:
Search on the Android Market for sgs2. In that group there is a boot screen changer program. I have it loaded on my phone and gone through the procedure but have not actually changed screens yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
The only thing safe to change is the bootanimation, so you can remove the AT&T if you haven't already by flashing a custom rom.

I just replace the zip file using a file manager (ES,Root Explorer) and reboot.

So you want him to be your test dummy? :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AntwanL:

I know it was possible on the captivate. But I haven't seen it done here yet.,I believe the splash screen is located in the kernel not the rom. on the cappy the splash screen would change depending on what kernel you were running. maybe one of the kernel devs (entropy ;-) ) could look into it.

Is it possible to connect GN via HDMI to HD TV and

1) make it output at 720p or 1080p

2) use tablet style desktop AND

3) turn off AMOLED while displaying on TV.

EDIT: I'm

not asking about mirroring

. I know it's possible. I want external, alternative display that will render at native 720p (ICS Tablet mode), not enlarge 800x480 to 1280x720. Hardware is more than capable, because we have tablets at that resolution with the same hw.

EDIT: My mistake about upscaling :) 1st and 2nd thing solved, how about 3)?

EDIT: Galaxy Tab dimms the screen, which would mean zero Watts on GN, but why GN doesn't dimm the AMOLED when using MHL?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
yes you can output youre nexus to your TV via 1080p using this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Ada...Z0IW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326273245&sr=8-1

not sure about tablet style or closing the nexus screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Galaid:
There is a cheaper alternative

http://offers.dealextreme.com/team.php?id=846

Tablet interface and "AMOLED safe mode" are also important...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunklung:
What do you mean by AMOLED safe mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Galaid:
well, or standby or off, whichever you prefer :) The point is having the display turned off while using the HTPC on the TV. Basically, if you connect BT mouse and keyboard, you'd get perfectly silent HTPC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunklung:
Okay. I forgot you were the OP. You can't turn tge screen off in mirror mode from what I have read.

People actually want to turn it off because with the mhl adapter on there is not enough current left over to charge the phone. The phone reports usb charging and will ultimatly run out of battery.

Also the navigation buttons will appear on screen all the time unless you are playing full screen video. If you play games the buttons will appear on screen also.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ranova:
Simple answer: No.

Long answer: The galaxy nexus has a native resolution of 1280x720, so there would be no "enlargement" when you are outputting to a 720p screen. Not sure where you got 800x480 from

To enable "Tablet" mode, you would just have to change the screen density to 240 or below. This just requires an app and a reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Galaid:
You're right, I forgot about 1280x720 native resolution. So the only thing missing is disable AMOLED while mirroring on TV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ranova:
I think thats a limitation to HDMI mirroring unfortunately. Its kind of stupid since the battery drain on the Nexus is ridiculous when MHL is connected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Galaid:
I hope you're wrong. Someone with good hw knowledge, please disperse doubts on this. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
I can tell you from my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Honeycomb Tablet, which also uses MHL to output video to a HDTV, that it dimms the screen but the screen stays on all the time. Seems to be the same on the Galaxy S2 and now also on the Galaxy Nexus, screen has to stay on. But I'm sure some profile app can adjust the brightness to the lowest setting automatically to "save" the OLEDs and power.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Galaid:
If it dimms the screen to the lowest level, by design it shouldn't waste any energy because GN is AMOLED, and Galaxy Tab is LCD which can't totally turn off the pixels. The question is now why GN doesn't dimm the screen :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunklung:
That plus, the phone MAY die after a few hours since the MHL adapter uses too much juice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
MHL provides power from the TV (not that much). You'd want to buy an MHL adapter (microUSB-HDMI) with a second charge port. Thus charge the phone from a wall plus provide video out.

Changing the DPI is best when using HDMI out so everything doesn't look enormous, but requires a reset of the device. Also the screen will stay on the whole time because the HDMI out is mirroring what is on the screen. Off screen = black hdmi out.

A bluetooth keyboard and mouse are also fun. Plus a PS3 DualShock 3. You got yourself a little PC.

I heard Netflix is weird about streaming movies over HDMI, along with Movies rented from the Market.

Using the setup above (keyboard, mouse, gamepad) is a great setup for playing emulators on your TV or just surfing the internet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunklung:
The way it was explained to me is that the MHL adapter will not even work without the USB plug connected to the MHL adapter. The phone, no matter it connected to a computer's USB or directly to a wall outlet, reports USB charging.

Everyone reports that the battery will eventually die since the charging isn't enough to power the entire phone, BT, Wifi, screen, and any hard computing (emulation).

Some solutions are suggested to use the pogo pins to supply the charge directly to the phone.

Perhaps a true MHL TV will supply enough current to the Nexus via the HDMI cable. Who knows.

Maybe a charge only cable could power the MHL adapter and provide enough current to the Nexus? Maybe Samsung's official portrait dock somehow someway provides AC outlet charging to the phone? We shall see.

All I know is that it's not practical to have the phone die when you have it plugged into AC. It reminds me of the crap car chargers that don't provide enough current to run GPS and charge the phone. Imagine if laptops worked the same way? Is this MHL charging situation an oversight or does Samsung have a product for this?

Did I speculate enough :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bunklung:
Found some more solid info on this charging situation (500ma limit):

http://mhltech.org/about/FAQs.aspx

Question 4, bullet 4.

So pogo pins are the only option?

Sad face.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
This is why the G2x with its built in HDMI port was flawless. You could charge it while using it. I haven't used MHL but remember reading that the power sent from the TV wasn't enough to keep it up and required one with a charging port.

Perhaps a different charger. I noticed using my Transformer wall adapter with a micro USB cable while playing Order and Chaos, when I'm done the phones fully charged.

Using stock and other chargers the battery either barely charges or depletes.

Maybe the chargers used aren't putting enough out.

Others have said the Gnex reports USB charging when using the AC adapter via the MHL adapter.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
A USB mouse is useless for a TV. Perhaps a PC monitor but wireless BT is the way to go in this setup.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thequinox:
Please read two posts above yours.

And yes, the MHL spec can do 1080p. Not sure how the Gnex will handle that though. I imagine it'll just clone the native res of 720. Haven't got my adapter yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thequinox:
That's a standard MHL adapter. The one everyone is talking about. The MicroUSB is just for power.
