I successfully flashed the new ics port for the captivate upgrading from cyanogenmod 7.1...but I didnt like it as much as CyanMod so I went to back up the rom and somehow I'm STUCk at the ATT boot screen without download mode or recovery mode...nothing works no adb no red screen of death...I tried making a jig...MY QUESTION....is there any native linux support apps or anything that can help me...I can't solder for crap?!!

You have to reflash cm7 twice and reflash gapps once

3-button????

I already had the Rom flashed but I tried to rom back to CGM and now theres nothing to get me out...im in limbo...at least if I was bricked Id have an idea of where to start...does the ics build include the 3-button fix???
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
Your original post made me think you hadn't even tried to flash cm. Yes the three buttons are supposed to work. If you try everything to get into download/recovery but can't, you will need a jig

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
You don't need to solder the jig for it to work. Just twist the resistors together in a string and touch the ends to the pins of a cut-open usb connector. Make sure you hold it together with tape before you try it, you can't touch any of the bare wires or it changes the resistance.

It worked....I've watched tons of videos of it working and tried a ton but it worked...flashed back to 2.1...on odin-one click does master clear work on mtp mode thats what my phone starts in?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick1103:
So I'm throwing this out there as its kinda driving me crazy, though I kinda know what the answer will be.

I play words with friends have done for a few months now, 2 weeks ago I flashed my Samsung GS2 with CM9 build 01062012 thinking It wasn't going to be stable enough to run as a daily I was shocked at how smooth it was etc.

I've now been using it as a daily and will continue to use it, will just re-flash it when bugs get fixed etc.

Now back to WWF, so I installed this and played it, it seems every other go it freezes my phone, to the point only battery removal will solve it.

I emailed the dev for the game and they said bug fixes were coming, I've had 2 updates in a week and each time it solves it for about a day then goes back to freezing my phone.

The weird part of this is when it freezes I hold power down for 10 secs and it turns off I reboot and once back on, the battery would've lost like 15/20% charge, I had to do this 4 times within an hour the once and my battery went from 80% to 13% just cos of rebooting :eek:. Then even more weirdly after deciding not to play the game my phone's charge went from 13% to 20% over a half hour period :confused:

Has anyone encountered weird behaviors like this before?

I know that this is a testing ROM would this cause this issue?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digeddydogg:
Yeah man, I play that **** too and had the exact same problem. I just put it down to cm,9 being an alpha. Sorry I've got no fixes but your not going mad. Ha

I just play it on the iPad instead until the rom becomes more stable.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick1103:
Oh man I thought it was me!

Well I'll wait until its more stable and then start playing it again, as I'd rather sacrifice the game and have ICS :P
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digeddydogg:
My thoughts exactly dude. Cm9 is pretty sweet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Li4m79:
I have the same issues on kp8 so I tale it its a ics issue not just isolated to cm9
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick1103:
Well I've read the reviews and some ppl have ICS, so they could have Galaxy nexus' or Nexus S', they weren't stating issues.

I think its down to CM9 myself, could be wrong tho.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netcitizen:
is there any update for this issue ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick1103:
I'm running the last est nightly and it still freezes randomly, really drives me mad as it crashed 3 times in a row other day taking my battery from 75% to 15% within minutes! :eek:

I put it down to running an experimental build :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netcitizen:
oh.. thats not good. i am on sammy roms just for this reason. Looks like its a problem in Atrix 4G, sensation devices too. but there are some kernel solutions given in those threads. nothing for SGS2 though. in rootzwiki forum someone posted this link http://www.mediafire.com/?9to2pa0tp7m0j1g which is adfree version of words 4.70. try your luck.one friend said it still hangs in his sgs2.

Thanks for the apk I'll give that ago and see how it goes but I'm not expecting much.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick1103:
So it crashed on first go, so there's your answer! :mad:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netcitizen:
Unless CM9 or Zynga fix this I guess it's gonna be like this.

Thanks and please let me know.

And firmware uptdate isn't possible per Kies Air yet.

you've got two possibilitys:

1. OTA (Over the Air) in Settings -> Info -> Software-update, but cause of the fail, see second.

2. connect ur phone with a pc, wehe Kies is installed. then select firmware-update, and let kies do it for u.

Hi there,

I've faced the same problem as you did in the past. I did lots of searching without success.

After that, I turned to the Chinese forums, cuz there are much more users in mainland and Taiwan than in other parts of the world.

Finally, I found the working solution... the update zip attached. It worked for me, and I hope that will work for you too.

Hello,

I opened camera, and I can take just one foto, if i want to do one more its shows :

"please insert and sd card before using camera" The thing is, that sdcard is there, its original(came with phone).

I took a few photos in the morning, everything ok, i didnt do anything with phone all day, except for writing sms. And now in the evening it started to show this error, what happened? Apps which are on phone works good, and i can listen to music(music is in SD card) too. So everything works, except camera. Why ?

I dont want and dont have time to do format/factory reset :/ . What are your suggestions ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keith456:
have you tried another micro sd card ? have you tried it on another device eg a camera ? ( by the looks of your problem it may be your sd card )

1.my suggestion would be for you to copy all contents of your sd to your pc then format the sd card and transfer contents of sd back to to your sd .

2. under settings on your desire unmount and remount your sd card

a phone reset is not needed

[Droid 2 General] on4now4:
Hey guys let me start by saying I have done quite a bit of searching and im not a total noob when it comes to this stuff. I have still been unable to find an answer to my questions...

So basically I have a Droid 2 and I flashed the CM9 ICS Alpha onto it had it running great (Cant wait to get past alpha :D) But due to the fact that its an alpha and really nothing works I wanted to go back to my librity rom... I tried to boot into recovery and that caused a boot loop instead of booting into recovery. :(

So from there I went to flash the stock SBF onto the phone and it keeps just getting stuck in a boot loop even when flashing the stock SBF. What have I done! lol How do I get this thing back to a factory setup?

I would really like to figure this out but if I cant I will be putting another mobo in it as that may be the easier solution haha

Thanks for taking the time to help me with this and if you know somewhere this has already been discussed please direct me to it as I could not find it...
[Droid 2 General] on4now4:
Nevermind lol

I was able to get it to boot by booting into recovery and running the factory reset. But I had already tried that once before posting this and it had not worked...

Well anyway all is good for me now maybe this will help someone eventually have a great day.

[Focus General] ronclone:
Hi guys,

I used to own a samsung omnia7... i loved the screen and general size of the phone, but i had soo much problems with the call quality and signal strength. sometimes it had zero signal in the middle of town, sometimes i had to restart the phone for it to get some signal. and it had always lower signal than friend's phones side by side.

In a call i always had problems, i was not able to hear anything at some point during the conversation. The person called or the person who called me could also not hear me anymore. Sometimes i heard the other side with a robot sound.

I remember some people said the problem was with the way the phone switched between 3g/2g, and it did make sense since sometimes i locked my phone to 2g via diagnosis and it did improve somewhat (signal strenght still low). but it was never fully resolved.

My omnia was stolen and i cant go back to android now. i'm thinking about a focus, there really cheap in amazon this days (240$). other option is a surround (200$). and i guess the other will be the Dell Venue Pro (240$).

I will like everyones opinion because no screen is worth the problems i had with the omnia. and thanks for your help...
[Focus General] SuperSport:
The Focus is an amazing phone. The screen is amazing to look at. I've got equal signal strength to my wife's iPhone 4s. We have a weak signal here at home, so it shows up easily.

I bought the Titan, and returned it the following day because I didn't see enough benefit to upgrade from the Focus. I then went and picked up the iPhone 4s (now for sale on eBay). When the Lumia 900 comes, it will be a different story.... ;)
[Focus General] witzman:
I've converted 4 people showing them my Focus. They loved the screen, Windows Phone, and how quick and responsive it was. One guy didn't believe I didn't have a dual-core CPU since my phone was faster on 1 CPU than his dual-core CPU Android phone.

Anyway, I truly believe that some of the issues you describe are partially due to just having some poor or faulty hardware in the phone. Annoying in that it wasn't enough to get a trade-in replacement, but it was to not want to go back to one.

I personally know someone who has a DVP and loves it. The deal on buy.com isn't too shabby either! The screen on the DVP is stunning, bright, and extremely precise. Slide out keyboard is also handy for those that can't quite get the hang of typing on a virtual kb. If I had extra money I'd definitely pick up a DVP.

My Focus is attached to my hip, literally, and my wifes Focus is arriving in 3-5 business days from Buy.com.

Happy decisions!
[Focus General] ronclone:
Thanks man... i sure hope so since i coudn't wait and already bought one from amazon. Amazingly, i paid 480$ for my omnia7 and now only 199$ for the focus (no brainer, so cheap for such an amazing phone).

I agree with you, second gen phones are not worth the extra 200$/300$ at all. My omnia7 was capable enough for me. IMHO only thing 2nd gen has on us, is the front facing cam (which i wont use at all). Howerver... I will buy for sure one of the dual(or quad)-core/hd-screen/wp8 beasts that will no doubt come later this year, THAT will be a real upgrade!

Anyway, for sure the omnia7 has many more threads than the focus about the call quality/signal strenght problem. in fact, i only found a couple of post about it so thats a little reassuring...

True That!

check if you are using a separate password to encrypt your synced data in chrome. bookmark sync will only work if you use your normal google account for syncing.

sync will not work correctly if you encrypt "all" in chrome. Only encrypt passwords.
