<2> --- cannot open the usb serial port. code: 32

What does this mean? Any help/advice?

Edit: Im on stock rom DXLM3. Using stock recovery before trying to flash CWM. And my phone is rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
I cant flash my cwm because of this. What do I have to do?:confused:.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ruggero:
You can try to change usb port and/or disinstall and reinstall phone usb drivers!

For me, on a laptop, this worked.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Thank you. I was waiting for a response. I did try changing usb port and same thing happened. Ill try reinstall drivers later on.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
Has this been done..

Else SC your Odin page
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Do I have to do such before I flash CWM? Sorry. Noob here.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Just to clear my confusion.

1. Tick usb debug.

2. Switch off then to download mode.

3. Flash CWM.

Any corrections?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ruggero:
tick usb debugging is irrelevant with odin flash!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
So I dont have to tick it when im flashing thru Odin? :confused:. Which is which. I dont know which one to follow. Im really confused atm.:confused:.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ruggero:
Tick usb debugging is irrelevant with odin flash! The correct sequence for odin flash is:

1. Turn off the phone

2. Go in download mode

3. Connect the phone via usb

4. When recognized (yellow bar) flash CWM

Bye
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
I will try again tomorrow. Hopefully I can flash CWM. Thanks for all the infos.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
OK..Share us your ways...:)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
I tried this and works like charm. At last I flashed my CWM successfully. Thanks. Now I can do back up. :D.

P.S. I just tried backing up using CMW. I tried backing up to my external sd. No known issues/ errors occured except something referring to ".android_secure". Did I do something wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] krobar77:
Hi all,

I got a question about my wife's SGW, I search the forum about a bug that i'm having during updating firmware via OTA.

so currently the phone's firmware is I8150DXLA2, then I flashed CWM 5.5.0.4 only and I did not root my wife's phone. stock rom shud be ok for her..

so the major problem is.. when updating via OTA, I managed to download it.

but after the phone rebooted, it went into CWM and it stop there. nothing else to do.. so I reboot phone from the CWM menu.

it starts again.. but failed to update.

tried via KIES also the same.

any ideas? any way that I can uninstall CWM and able to update like everyone else via OTA/KIES?

I want to get latest firmware but becoz of this.. I skipped 2 updates from Samsung already..
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
As far as I know in order to update your stock rom via OTA you need to have the stock recovery. So I suggest you flash your stock recovery first then update via OTA.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] krobar77:
meaning Stock ROM I8150DXLA2 + CWM 5.5.0.4= can't OTA update?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Yes. Base on my understanding.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] bbmadzky:
Correct. The OTA uses the stock recovery to update your phone. Since it got replaced with CWM, you cannot update via OTA anymore...

unless

You flash back the stock over the current recovery you have. and;

You flash via Kies.

I understand that you already tried the latter but the second one works. I have tried it myself. But the update via Kies unroots your phone and installs the stock recovery again. So if you choose the second method, be sure to root it again and flash CWM after updating. :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] necrohades:
i'm not sure if this has to do with the new update, but whenever i'm trying to flash CWM recovery with Odin, i'm encountering an error "can't open usb port: code5".

Odin did detected my phone, but it cant seem to flash cwm-recovery anymore after the update (i updated via kies).

any help with this?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] matthiastan5:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Try this before flashing. Settings>applications>development>tick usb debug. This one works for me, I had similar prob on usb port. If not working for you, try updating your usb drivers, install kies on your desktop.

Note: after kies installed on desktop be sure its not running when flashing via odin.

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
@matthiastan5- how long were you stuck? I havent experienced such but I just want to know for future preferences.

You'll know it was sucessfully flashed when PASS appears on screen.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] matthiastan5:
10 minutes, then i gave up

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Did you tick usb debug on settings>applications>development prior to flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] matthiastan5:
i got the pass, but it took nearly 10 minutes, works. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Glad I could help.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] krobar77:
ok thanks.

so if I want to remove CWM and get OTA to work.. is by flash stock rom entirely ..right?

and in ODIN just untick "Wipe user data" to maintain my data.. ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
You dont have to flash entire rom. You just have to flash stock recovery to remove cwm.

http://db.tt/ZHX5gAED

Its the stock recovery. If youre on stock rom and flashed stock recovery you will be able update OTA.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] krobar77:
wow.. thanks man. gonna try it later. so it is compatible with any version stock rom?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:
Yes it is man.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] krobar77:
hi karmalot.. can you plz upload it again..

"MD5 Checksum Fail"

thanks!! :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Karmalot:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] mosta_9741:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Groovecain:
that's CWM Touch right ?

and are you densinyo from revakus ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] bisato:
Has somebody the same problem?

When I start Rom Manager (Premium) it tells me that I don't have CWM installed. But I have, I recently installed CM9 through it.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hotheabilly:
it doesn't optimized for our phone
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arco68:
Updated first post with download for version 6.0.1.0.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] linh.bachelor:
Hopefully after this ICS beta for SGW will be released.

Thanks for all your work:cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ilyamodder:
Thank you, but what's new in this version?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Fujin.Suzukaze:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hotheabilly:
the last version have cool background and sdcard partition in advanced menu :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Brian_SGW_CM9:
so arco's original recovery is updated. If we use this recovery to flash any further CM9 updates, is it gonna be safe? Has any tested flashing cm9 with this updated recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Fujin.Suzukaze:
there are errors on the technical side?just changed the background?:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] hotheabilly:
probably no errors, safe to flash with odin :)

[Epic 4G General] epicBuM:
Any help would be appreciated. I spent some time creating a theme for an MTD rom that I like, problem is I ran into an issue with media ui file. I wanted to change the dial pad sound from stock to custom sounds when using the dial pad with no such luck. Oddly I was able to change the charger_connection ui .ogg file but for some reason the keyy.ogg files will not take. No matter what I try it reverts back to the stock dial pad sounds. Again any help would be appreciated.

Hola perdona te moleste me llamo Santiago ... y soy español afincado en Chile el motivo de mi escrito es que no tengo ni idea de ingles y quisiera bajarme Custom Kernel for Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (GT-P6210) y CWM-based Recovery for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6210 ya que me llevo cargado con este tres galaxy tab 7.0 plus GT-P6210 y como la unica forma de solucionarlo es como ustedes dicen y con los rom que poneis vosotros ya se que es un descaro por mi parte pero no tengo otra forma para solucionarlo y estoy totalmente loco ya siento mucho las molestias que te pueda causar pero si no fuera por fuerza mayor no te lo pideria si me pudieras solucionar el problema no sabes cuanto te lo tendria agradecido y te pongo la traduccion en ingles hecha por el google gracias por todo y esperando me puedas ayudar atentamente*
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Kabal2:
Hello, my name is Santiago, Im Spanish living in Chile. Im writing because I don't understand english and I wan't to download the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (GT-P6210) and the CWM-based Recovery for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6210*. That is for my 3 Galaxy Tabs p6210 (APARENTLY OUR FRIEND SCREW 3 DEVICES TRIYING TO GET A CUSTOM ROM) sorry for the inconvenience this message cause to you but, I need help Im gonna crazy with this situation. (THEN OUR FRIEND IS TALKING ABOUT A TRASLATION MADE BY GOOGLE TRASLATE)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] gsevilla:
Santiago is a Spaniard living in Chile. Sounds like he wants to download and install your custom kernel and cwm on a gt-p6210 but it's not clear what he's asking of you. There's no specific question. I think he needs instructions in Spanish. He appologizes for bothering you.

I hope this helps a little.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bdds13:
It seems that he's bricked 3 galaxy tabs (he doesn't explain how). He believes that by installing your kernel and CWM will fix his 3 galaxy tabs. He hasn't been able to fix his galaxy tab and it's driving him nuts, so he's asking you for help. He's asking you for installation instructions to install the custom kernel and CWM. He also says that he's sorry for bugging you about this, but also says he'd be extremely grateful if you helped him out.

Edit: I know what he's saying, cause I'm Mexican and i understand Spanish 100%, but he's spanish not mexican so some of his expressions are different. It's kinda like with the Americans and the English. You guys both speak english, but expressions and culture is different.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
I really appreciate the translations. The google translation was horrible. The problem I'm having is... I have no idea how to help someone if I can't communicate with them. If anyone who is fluent with Spanish and thinks they might be able to assist him, please send the fellow a PM. His XDA name is "Gorosan56 "

I'm actually amused... This is the first time I've ever bumped into someone on the internet that couldn't speak English. I guess us American's really are lacking in some areas (and extremely arrogant in others.) (Or maybe most of us CAN speak multiple langagues and I'm just a dummy.)

Take care and thanks

Hi, i want to install cm7 kang and i want to know whats the best kernel to install for battery and performance. And if i flash a new kernel do i lose my data?
[LG Optimus 2x] rugglez:
Performance and battery dont go hand in hand with each other. I have used IronKrnL and vandoka's CM7 kernels, and found this:

Ratings for various kernels:

1. Stock CM7 kernel: Performance 8/10, Battery 8/10

2. IronKrnL 1.3GHz: Performance 8.5/10, Battery 8/10

3. IronKrnL 1.5 GHz: Performance 10/10, Battery 6/10

4. Vadonka's kernel (normal version): Performance 9/10, Battery 8/10

5. Vadonka's kernel (powersaver undervolted version): Performance 7/10, Battery 9/10

There maybe some kernels like vorkkernel which i have not tried, but these 2 seem to be the most popular kernels for CM7 at the moment (vork not updated since 2 months).
[LG Optimus 2x] kennbo82:
I like Vadonka's Powersave 32mb Hack version -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427646
[LG Optimus 2x] Istur:
now i'm using swiftextreme 2.6.32.48 and it has good performance and medium battery drain, but now i would try the vadonka's kernel (powersaver) what's the different between base version and 32M ramhack version?
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Base version = no extra ram memory, everything works like how it's supposed to be.

32MB Ramhack version = 32MB extra ram memory, everything works like how it's supposed to be, except reboot.
[LG Optimus 2x] FPSAUS4EVER:
Ok, thank you all for the reply's and i will try vadonka normal kernel. But is it true that the 32mb ram hack, the camera and video camera don't work?
[LG Optimus 2x] rugglez:
No, only reboot does not work in the 32MB RAM hack version, everything else like camera and video recording work fine.
[LG Optimus 2x] FPSAUS4EVER:
ok thanks. I will try it soon.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezcats:
Hey guys...i was wondering if any of you guys had this problem.

the glass (which feels like cheap plastic) on the front of the device bends and flexes a lot when i apply just a little pressure...it makes those weird dark circles (you know on lcd screens).

The whole glass just feels like cheap plastic form a $100 tablet or something...i expected more form gorilla glass

BTW: this is the new model with the preloaded TW UX and the Samsung logo on the bottom (something changed maybe)

The gorilla glass on my captivate won't flex AT ALL no matter how much pressure i apply...this is just like plastic..

RANT!!

sorry i just want to know if this is normal or not :P

i expect more from a $500 tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samdroid_G_S:
You have heavy hands that's the problem.. Why would you press down so hard to bend the glass anyway? I guess the next step is dropping it a few times and seeing if it holds up.

/rant
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezcats:
no i'm not trying to do any of that...i'm just wondering why the glass changed from the original galaxy tab 10.1 (the once that shipped without TW) and the new one's glass..

the stock 3.1 one feels a lot more sturdy..the new one feels like plastic.

you can just hear it when you tap on the screen ( no pressure ) just tapping...it sound hollow

(I just make a big deal out of these things..i hated HP build quality so much i switched to a mac just for the quality (i still run windows))

:D

BTW: i made it pretty clear...not pressing HARD..just a little pressure..it bends a ton.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slack04:
Nope, the problem is your hands need to go on a diet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezcats:
do you have the one preloaded with TW?

they changed the glass

BTW: explain why my captivate is fine?...same hands!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samdroid_G_S:
High Five! :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezcats:
so i guess the answer to my question is no..and i have to exchange it because i got a messed up glass one right?

all i asked
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samdroid_G_S:
I have to apply a fair bit of pressure to replicate your problem on mine , So I would say if your simply resting your hand on the screen not pressing, just resting and its bending I would either say you have some heavy hands or there's something not right with it. Possibly go somewhere where there is one on display and try it and see if it's the same.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
For what its worth I wouldn't compare a cell phone with 4.5 inch screen to a tablet with a 10.1 inch one. Engineering wise the stresses involved in applying the same amount of force to the center of each are completely different, its simple physics really. Samsung tried to beat out the iPad with these, compromises were made and the galaxy tab screen spans a full inch longer with slightly narrower bezels and lighter construction.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastianlow:
The screen on my tab also feels very plastiky, but all samsung devices are like that, they all have super lousy build quality. Too bad they aint HTC, i like their unibody design, feels super solid.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightmarebadger:
I also have the Samsung logo on bottom and while I can't say anything about the feeling of the glass (have a screen protector installed) it definitely doesn't bend like yours. I applied a fair amount of pressure in the middle (and other spots) and never saw any of the dark circles similar to LCD screens.

I would go to the store and try it out on the models that are on display, then proceed by sending some emails to whatever store you bought it from. Doesn't seem normal to me that you would get problems even with gently tapping a touch screen device ...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DevilBeyond:
Just wondering if the Samsung galaxy tab plus will be getting the ice cream sandwich update, heard news that it might and might not be getting it, so I'm not really sure. Any 1? XD

Sent from my GT-P6200.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Thedonk13:
yes, the 7 Plus is on Samsung roadmap to receive ICS Q1 2012.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] KnoxBNYC:
I researched this before I bought my Plus. I would not have bought it without assurances from Samsung that this would indeed upgrade to ICS.

I, for one, cannot wait!!!! :D :D :D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lrs421:
Are you sure about Q1? The announcement seemed to suggest the S2 and galaxy R were Q1 and all others would follow.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] orb360:
Of course converting Q1 2012 from the "Samsung Timezone" to UTC means it's actually Q4 2012.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DevilBeyond:
Well, whatever it is, I just hope the update will come as soon as possible! :D

Sent from my GT-P6200.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] orb360:
So do I... But from my experience with my past 2 Samsung devices... They tend to push back release dates 4-5 times before actually releasing the update. (Moment and Epic 4g)

Although maybe I just had bad luck in picking those two particular devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Entropy512:
Actually Samsung is pretty timely with updates - as long as there is NOT a North American carrier in the loop (So T-Mobile TabPlus users are probably screwed.)

Once there's a North American carrier in the loop - you're screwed with almost any device from any manufacturer. The Tab 10.1 received updates in a fairly timely fashion, the I9000 did too, and the I9100 seems to be coming along fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Falcon1:
I am surprised

I am very concerned and surprised that Chinese tablets are coming with ICS 4.3, even Sony S tablet has already updated to ICS via OTA and our device still has the same version that is Honeycomb. The most amazing thing is that Samsung is mentioning that our device is starting to receive the updates but when??? They are saying the same thing from long time ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] SFU11:
there are no ICS updates for this devices...???

just curious, samsung forget this tab :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] FMAranda:
Nothing yet, I think Samsung will not update it.
