[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
This used to happen to me too. Had to install latest LG drivers and everything was fine after that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hawklet00:
i just downloaded the drivers from lg's website, but when i tried installing them it said that i had the most recent drivers and wouldnt install the driver

*edit* i uninstalled all lg drivers, and then re installed the tmo g2x driver from the website, however, that still didnt work. when i plugged my phone into my computer, the usb driver still failed to install. not sure why
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
I have bought an MHL adapter, and also a HDMI to HDMI cable.

1) apparently it did not work and my screen on the phone turned green and I had to reboot my phone. Since then, my phone then going into screen off, may observe some grain lines just before the lights on the screen turns off.

2) i had problem with my WIFI tethering.. it just prompts me error, and even with reboots, I can't seem to provide WIFI hotspot. I tried looking for threads but to no avail, hoping for some experts to enlighten me on this two issues.

Thanks in advance..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
It may help to mention what rom / kernal combination you have.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
May also help to mention;

1. is the MHL adapter you're attempting to use an OEM Samsung MHL adapter, or some knock-off?

2. When attempting to use the MHL adapter, are you plugging in power to the adapter? And if so, are you using the original AC adapter that came with your phone? If not, you should try that.

3. "problem with wi-fi tethering" and "it just prompts me error" doesn't begin to describe your problem.

You need to provide much more detail if you expect anyone to be able to help you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
It only prompted me with the ONLY word error after I mark on hotspot tethering. How do I provide more information for that when the phone error doesn't give me more information?

yes, like you said, it's OEM Samsung MHL adapter with Original AC adapter and everything original..

The only thing that's not original is my ROM & kernel.

I'm on Ultratoxic Rom v8.0.2 with Siyahkernel 2.6.9. still the same fault with Siyahkernel 2.6.11.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
I have Siyah kernel 2.6.4 on stock XXKI3 (I know - I'm behind the times), and MHL works fine with Wi-Fi for me.

Sorry, I don't know anything about the Ultratoxic ROM. Looks like it's Samsung based (XWKK5) when I look at the thread I find when I search for it. Have you checked with any other users of this ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
The other users seems to have no problem on that ROM..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
The only thing I can suggest is to make a Nandroid backup of your current ROM, flash to a stock ROM, and see if it works with that. If it does, then something you have installed (maybe the ROM, but maybe some other app) is causing the behavior.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbstryker:
Anyone know of a non-destructive root method for ICS? My wife and I are swapping phones. Mine is rooted and all but hers isn't and I want to make a Titanium backup of all her stuff.

So far the only method I know of to root is via OEM unlock and flashing clockwork recovery. Then installing su via CWR. The OEM unlock erases everything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RioRyan:
I believe you can root it without unlocking the boot loader using SuperOneClick but I could be wrong. Either way worth a try
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick N:
Move the TitaniumBackup folder to your PC before starting. Don't forget your pictures folder too!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
just copy your entire SDcard to your computer , and then after unlocked bootloader copy it back
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbstryker:
Thanks guys, but that doesn't restore any apps or their data.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sninkychan:
My understanding is that you can unroot as needed, so I wouldn't consider rooting the S "destructive". There are instructions to be found easily that explain how to unroot your phone.

Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant -- disregard the above.

Can't you back up most stuff using MyBackup?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cttttt:
I think he means the wipe accompanying a bootloader unlock as being destructive.

use root toolbox its only 4 bucks so dont be cheap. then copy sdcard to computer , the root, copy sd card back and ur done
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbstryker:
Ya, problem is that root toolbox requires root.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motomeup:
Did superoneclick work for you? I'm also looking for a way to root my phone without wiping it with the possibility of unrooting it again after.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbstryker:
Actually I found another program that works even better (imo). It's called RootUnlocker and it worked for both the Nexus S running 4.0.3 and the LG Optimus 2x running 2.2. However, it didn't work for my Acer a500 but there's currently no method to root 3.2 on it. You need to down grade first.

Edit: Correction, it's not called root unlocker, but rather Unlock Root (http://www.unlockroot.com).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1ng617:
So, I'm trying to setup my GNote just how I like it and when I think I'm almost done I run into a major problem.

I use my phone a lot in my car, but I mount it to my dash (local phone usage laws) and connect it to an Auxiliary input to my car speaker system. My Droid X, when set up this way, allowed me to listen to the caller through my speaker system, but kept my voice input on the handset itself (probably because it detected that there was no mic installed, come to think of it my GF's dumbphone does the same thing)

But my GNote instead thinks there is a MIC and mutes the handset input! That really REALLY makes it difficult while driving because I would need to use the (terrible) speakerphone & unplug the AUX every time I want to take a call while driving, then replug it in after the call to listen to music again.

Someone please tell me there is some sort of fix or work around for this. This is a major deal breaker for me :(

PS: I'm rooted, & on Rocket Rom with LA4 Kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1ng617:
After some more research I'm starting to think this is actually a software bug, because there are three different 3.5mm plugs and the phone should be able to recognize which is which and act accordingly i.e. turn off/keep on microphone.

Here is a photo of what I'm talking about

The single ringed jack is for mono, double ring = stereo, and triple ring = stereo w/ microphone. For some reason it detects the double ringed jack as a stereo w/ the microphone and shuts off the handset microphone for telephone calls only. I tried using the stock "Voice Recorder" app w/ stereo headphones plugged in and it works, but when I try to make a call the other person cannot hear a thing.

We could possibly convince the CM team to cook CM for our device too. We need to request them in their forums.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
I don't think it's gonna make much difference. None of mods/devs have ever answered to any of those threads.

I think that our guys will port it faster.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] dh33r4j:
The reason is the requests are too few for anyone to notice.

The Devs wont make a ROM for just 5 or 6 people. We need to have a mass request.

Let us give it a try :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
You may be right, It doesn't harm to try. But I don't think creating new threads is a good idea since we already have....nine of them. Opening new threads will just make mods pissed. We need to chose the one major thread - in section Unofficial Ports (that's the place for unsupported devices), and write there.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] dh33r4j:
I agree with you 100%.

But the question is, which thread do we support?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] cocoa7:
From what I've seen, the cyanogenmod team won't just take on a new phone like that. Maybe after we have a stable unofficial port, but not til then. Look at how the huawei ideos 1850 progressed, it got a lot of attention after someone ported it for themselves, and now it has official CM. keep going guys but if you really want CM then I think it's better to help get AOSP for R than to spam CM forums...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] m.kochan10:
I absolutely agree, that none gets cm just like that: "-please give us cyanogen!" "-Ok here you go" ;)

(There are already nine threads - every new user seems to want to have his own thread ;) Even I opened one in donators lounge;) )

Another example. I don't remember what it was for device, but users contacted directly one of cm devs and then created a donation thread, collected money and bought him a phone. Once they got CM development started for real.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Rejwen:
I think the max what they can do for us is welcome a new developer from us with this device and let him do CM for R :/. Thats could happen with LG GT540 and there was a veeeeeeeeeeeeery big spam about CM for it.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] dh33r4j:
And regarding the ICS for our phone, I can sense some delay. Samsung leaks firmwares frequently during development. Probably because they know that we guys flash it and report bugs here. It would save them time on testing.

Couple of builds have leaked for Galaxy SII.

None for ours yet. Same with Optimus 2x. The users from O2x forum say that the OEMs are waiting for NVidia to release the sources.

We can expect ICS for i9103 in Q2

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] wolvngelz:
Hey all,

I pulled the trigger on the Tab 7.7 as a daily phone and tablet, which is great, I don't really mind the size.

BUT, I only have 3 home screens, with tons of widgets, and switching to the App drawer, or hitting the + next to App, and going from a running app to home screen is super laggy for me.

Anyone else?

I blame TouchWiz.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ffletchs:
Yeah, I changed the launcher on mine, put SPB Shell 3D, and its a lot smoother, ADWLaunhcer EX, is great also
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] nascar24usa:
No Lag, Just Extremely Fast

I don't use Touch Wiz, I prefer Go Launcher EX.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
Tons of widgets will slow down your interface.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Yeah basically. I use ADW EX. It is smoother than an iPad really. I tried SPB Shell 3D, but honestly, it can't even touch ADW EX.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] wolvngelz:
Thanks for all the great responses. I think I'll try ADW, judging from what's happening now.

Yes, I agree too that a ton of widgets on normal phones doesn't really effect performance like it does on this Honeycomb.

I guess, a 3rd party launcher will have to do, whilst waiting for ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] murmur70:
I actually prefer TW to Go ex launcher. It is just personal preference though.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] paulikxp:
Why does everybody think that quadcore is automatically faster than dualcore? That's rubbish and wrong and I bet that our 7.7 is -if at all - not more than 10% slower than the Prime.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Much agreed. Having played with a Prime in a store, and compared the 7.7 right next to it, honestly my 7.7 felt at least as fast, if not faster, than the prime, especially when web browsing. Scrolling and zooming on the 7.7 was consistently faster and smoother.

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

How is the experience on the 7.7? Is it like a big phone, or is the UI also optimized for a full tablet experience too?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Theory:
Like a small tablet rather than a big phone. That's not always a good thing--some of the UI elements are a bit smaller than they should be. In comparison, Gingerbread on my 1st Gen Galaxy Tab makes it feel like a big phone at times, but the UI elements are nice and large.

Touchwiz is nice looking, but is a bit more laggy than Go Launcher Ex and ADW Launcher Ex. But neither of the latter two resolve all of the lag issues. I believe that the problem is really with Honeycomb.

Still, loving my 7.7. (Though I'm looking forward to loving it even more with Icecream Sandwich.)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Good to know! Thanks for the feedback :)

Currently using ADW EX personally, and to be honest, I'm kinda confused about this lag everyone keeps going on about...

I mean, ok, my homescreen may take half a second the re-draw the widgets when I come back to it from another application or whatever, but after that, it's lightning quick and buttery smooth! Seriously, side-by-side, my 7.7 has put an iPad 2 to shame in terms of quickness and smoothness...

I'm beginning to wonder if I got a different piece of hardware than everyone else here :P
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Theory:
You are welcome. I have some but not a lot of experience with the ipad so it's hard to compare. For all I know, it could just be unreasonable expectations on my own part.

BUT, there definitely are more small waits (usually no more than 1 sec) here and there, especially during transition events (redrawing the homescreen, shifting from one app to another, sometimes, even just calling up the app drawer from homescreen, from pressing the icon to the gmail/email app being ready for use). And I am comparing my experience with the 7.7 with Gingerbread running on both my 1 Gen Galaxy Tab and my HTC HD2. I think this says a lot considering that the 7.7 packs a much faster processor. Still, having said all that, I also feel that the device is very, very fast and smooth *in general*. Just not as *finished* as one might have been led to expect given the hardware.

After mucking around both Go and ADW, I decided to settle on Go for the moment. Though ADW feels marginally faster, I like Go's app drawer features better, and the ABlack theme icons.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I think it's probably unreasonable to expect that applications are loaded and available the instant you call them to attention, especially if they haven't been used in a while and their state isn't pre-cached. You're always going to have some kind of a delay there regardless. Also, Honeycomb addresses a completely different API layer for apps than Gingerbread does, so with more functionality and complexity, comes more loading time. This is to be expected. ICS should, however, streamline the whole caching, loading, and multitasking business overall once it's released for the 7.7

Perhaps the real issue here is a question of interpretation, and what we both consider to be "lag." From what I understand, you consider lag to be the time it takes for programs to load up and be usable, or the time it takes for them to be usable when switching between multiple apps. In this sense, yes, there is always a delay between apps, but nothing unexpected (in my opinion), and nothing which I would consider to be unacceptable. Being able to switch between multiple apps and never having to wait more than 1 second, at most, before being able to use them, is not something worth complaining about I think.

What I consider to be lag is more a question of generally how smooth and responsive the UI is overall. In this sense, I basically haven't encountered any lag at all, with perhaps the only exception being during the half or second or so it takes ADW EX to re-draw my homescreen. Aside from that, screen transitions are quick and smooth, web browsing is responsive and fluid, and all other aspects of navigating my 7.7 are quick and efficient.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] wolvngelz:
So I tried Launcher Pro, ADW Launcher, Go Launcher (all free versions) and I found that pre-installed widgets like Buddy or other smaller widgets (not the clock/calender) look horrible. As if they are in the wrong resolution.

Does ADW EX fix that?

Which launcher have you guys found to be fast, whilst keeping close to the original Honeycomb experience.

To whoever was asking, no this doesn't feel like a big phone, it feels like a small tablet which has the ability to make calls.

I still get ridiculed from time-to-time when answering the phone at lunch because I choose not to trouble myself with a bluetooth.

But the best thing is, I don't need to carry a phone and a tablet around now.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Theory:
That sounds eminently reasonable:) Indeed, as long as the app is up and running, then the UI is generally very smooth and responsive.

But now I'm curious--earlier, you said "Seriously, side-by-side, my 7.7 has put an iPad 2 to shame in terms of quickness and smoothness..." So it is your experience that the ipad 2 is actually more laggy compared to the 7.7 in the sense as defined? (I'm a little surprised.)

I wanted to ask this in the actual thread but 10 post limit...

Anyway,

I can't get any GPS lock on my I9000, Onemsomic's ICS RC3.1, JVU modem.

I tried changing the NetworkLocation.apk by following this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21351809#post21351809

but since I have absolutely no idea how to use ADB I couldn't do the "change mode to 0644" step.

Someone help a noob? :)

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AurosGamma:
Well, first off, download the *.apk provided in that post and place it on the sdcard.

adb is a command line tool, so you must insert those commands on a terminal emulator (maybe you got one installed, if not, download one from the market, I can recommend "Android Terminal Emulator").

So, open your terminal emulator and go to the directory where you placed your *.apk. this example has been wrote with the *.apk in the sdcard folder:

su
cd /mnt/sdcard
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot

Note: I wrote this example following my common sense, so I'm not completely sure if this will work!

Cheers!

I get a "device not found" error after adb remount. What should I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AurosGamma:
Well I have been looking here and there, and I found that adb doesn't work directly on the phone, you must use adb from your pc. So, this is what you should do from now on:

Install Java SDK

Install Android SDK

Turn on "USB Debugging" in your SGS settings

Connect the Device to the PC

And finally, use the following commands (from the PC):

// Go to the folder where you put the *.apk
cd C:\users\exampleuser\Documents\ // or /home/exampleuser/Documents/ if you're using linux
adb start-server
adb remount
adb push NetworkLocation.apk /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb chmod 0644 /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk
adb reboot

Note:

The text after the double-slash ( // ), must not be written in the console, they are just comments

You need to install the SDK's because there it is where the adb tool (and tools needed by adb) is found, so, good luck!
