[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Can someone guide me in how to create a home screen shortcut to perform a specific action?

As an example: I'm unrooted so I do not have the built in function to do a reboot like a lot of the current ROMs have. However, I found out that if I punch in *#350# on the dialer pad the phone will do a full reboot. That being said is there a way to create a shortcut to perform that specific action? I tried saving *#350# as a contact in hopes that it would work but all it does is bring up the dialer with the number displayed. If I push the call button all it does is try to dial the number, which is not what I want. Even the direct dial option doesn't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frifox:
Save yourself the trouble and root the damn phone. After that, use Tasker to accomplish your goal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ipetloudog:
Root your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisbass:
If you don't want to root just save the number but without the last #. When it comes up in your dialer just push the last pound instead of dial and it should work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jt_hatch:
Try Any Cut? (look it up in the market)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Tried it doesn't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Tried that as well. No go.

There is an app that will save the dialer code but you still have to filter thru menus within the app to get to it. It does not allow a simple option to create a shortcut on the home screen.

I'm looking for something similar to running a bat file like you would in windows. Simply code the intended action, double or single click the created file and viola let it do its thing.

For those who say to simply root, thank-you but my intended purpose is to do this without rooting. I figure if the dialer recognizes it then somehow (though not obvious or simple I gather) that it should be able to be done.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluppfisk:
Yes it sounds like a catch-22 and that's exactly what I think it is.

Yesterday my phone battery bailed on me. So I plug it in for a night and wake up to see it hasn't charged at all. It's still off and continually displaying the battery charging icon, after which it shows the Samsung Galaxy S2 logo, after which it dies. This goes on forever.

I've tried different outlets, also my computer's USB port, but to no avail. I have the impression that it wants to be on to charge, and since it does not have enough power to start, it won't charge. Seems like the amount of power from the charger suddenly isn't enough to start, or that the device tries to start before the battery can handle it.

This evening, after not trying anything for an entire day, I got it to show the CyanogenMod logo, but it got stuck on loading. So I took it out, wanted to go into the CWM to wipe some settings and have a clean installation, but then it bailed on me again.

Now I'm back in the endless charge-start-die loop. What can I do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jihoonim20:
Hi,

I think your battery is messed up, buy a new battery. Or make it go into recovery mode. Or, go to your nearest Samsung Centre.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s73v3.:
Do you have a multimeter to check the voltage of the battery?

Either you will need another phone that will accept the battery to charge it or your can charge the battery externally with a lithium charger (think Remote Control cars, planes, helis)

or ebay for a new battery.

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------

BTW Lithium batteries will die very quickly i not kept above the correct voltage. Li-Ion are charged in two stages. Constant current, and then constant voltage.

Constant current is to apply 500ma at around 3.7 or 4 volts per cell till the battery voltage gets to its upper limit depending on what battery chemistry you have. Then keeping the voltage at that limit, reduce the current continually till the battery is fully charged. As I do not know the max voltage for the cell, I will just assume that 3.5v will be a safe amount.

So to charge, simply apply 3.5 volts to the phone battery for a few minutes at a time, with a resistor or light bulb in between so the current is limited, then checking it back in your phone inbetween to see if it charges.

If you are confused at the major concepts here then just buy a new battery, to save breaking you or your phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluppfisk:
I'm travelling around in Asia but the local market had a place that had proper equipment. I managed to fix the battery by charging it with an external one-fits-all charger (where you can put the positive and negative leads anywhere). After that I can just use the phone again and charge it normally.

If the phone didn't try to start but would just charge the battery when plugged into the mains, this would also have worked. Anyway, I had a new battery made (I'm in China so they just pack a random battery with some rubber to make the size fit into some stickers and that works). Funny thing is, it has 1900mAh, a lot more than the original battery, though being a lot smaller in size. I hope it will last...

thanks for the tips

Hi guys,

i have the same trouble of him, and i can share you that my wife and me just bought two galaxy s2 white from France...they are totally new (two weeks ago).

Here the bug i confirm, if we are out of battery, then to plug it in the official craddle of my car, with the official charger will power on automatically the phone, then it will loop in on---off--on--of, because not enough power to keep the phone charging.

I confirm that the only way to make the phone charging correctly is to plug it with the power socekt wall charger, by the car there is no way.

It seems the difference between the car charging and the house charging is that in the car when it is plugged the phone power on auto, in the house the phone charge without powering on the phone....

Is there a way to force in the car with the craddle to charge some minutes without the need to power on it auto ??

Your battery is not dead, or in France my wife and me got the similar issue and it is really not possilbe...

Hi,

have you tried to remove the battery from the phone for at least a couple of hours and then put the battery again and plug it?. I had the same issue and doing this I could charge the phone after a couple of tries. I hope you got luck with this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluppfisk:
I've tried it but it wouldn't work. A separate charger (charge outside the phone) did the trick, no more problems since then.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedgepigdaniel:
1 Cell lithium batteries like phone batteries are nominally 3.7v but their voltage depends on charge. They should generally be charged to a maximum of 4.2V, and not discharged below 3.3V/3V, depending on who you ask. You don't want to get it wrong though - look up what happens if you overcharge a lithium battery on youtube!

Same Problem Battery Logo Boot Loop

Has this problem been solved ?

I have the same Battery Logo Boot Loop

I have several batteries, and a separate charger ... batteries at 100%

The problem occurred while phone was in use, connected to wall charger, and had reached 100% .

I continued to use the phone while plugged into charger.

Phone shut down with a Battery Logo showing only a thin green line at bottom.

I turned phone off and swapped in a hot battery, but phone would not turn on.

Stays totally black screen, will not enter Download mode or Recovery mode.

With charger plugged in it will go into the Battery Logo Boot Loop.

The blue light next to the power button flashes, the Battery Logo appears for a few seconds then screen goes black and cycle repeats.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

I have been experimenting few things to improve the sound quality for my SG3. This is specially for the people who love music and want extreme effects with headphones.

If you are running doom kernel then your bootloader is unlocked. If you have the flash tools and ftf files then it's hard to brick your phone. You just use the flash tools to flash back to the start.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Felisek:
I'm sure the answer to this question is somewhere there, but I cannot find it. There is plenty of information on how to root your phone or tablet, but not on how the root works on Android.

When I work on my Linux box I usually use a "normal", limited user. Only when I need to install something, I switch to superuser, or root, using "su" or "sudo".What happens on a rooted Android? Do all apps run with root privileges all the time? Or rather some sort of "su" command is unlocked, and an app can access it when required. Can I give and revoke superuser powers to an app?

It is always safer to run all programs or apps with limited privileges, so when they misbehave, the risk to system integrity is minimal. If everything runs in root mode, it might just spectacularly crash one day.

In this context, how does adaway work? Does it start with the system, sitting in the background and using its root privileges to intercept and filter incoming HTTP packages? If I understand this correctly, it should then work with any browser?

Sorry for asking several questions in one topic, but I'd appreciate if someone could briefly explain the whole thing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tshoulihane:
There is a superuser app, which seems to be doing the same job as gksu does on a linux desktop. Apps can request root, you can allow/deny. If you use the shell, su works as normal (just no password) - but connectbot needs to be given root privileges in order for this to succeed.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] aleritty:
We are gathering informations here.

But if your old rom was the stock one you didn't need a backup you can just flash bask the stock rom (is available via lg tools) and sync your data back from google. The apps are in the market but you have to manually download them.

I advice you next time you make a nandroid backup AND use titanium to backup all your apps and data, so you can easily reinstall everything on the new rom!

Ok, I misunderstood your problem, I think that you have a baseband trouble, you have to flash the news baseband AND only after this flash the rom that you choose!

If you flash with the lg program the last rom for your phone you will get the new baseband, after that operation you can flash every rom tagged "newbb" BUT you cannot flash the roms tagged "oldBB" or you will get no communication (like now).

So for the first thing flash with lg program so you will get a functioning phone and after this you can start choosing your rom!

Just next time act wisely and READ all you can about roms before trying to flash your phone!

1)Now, just go to the LG website, download the software (firmware) updater for your phone.

2)Then connect your phone to your pc and...

3) use the original LG software to "update" your phone.

After this process you will have a clean LG stock firmware with everything functioning.

[Captivate General] AySz88:
In case someone lands on this thread via Google like me...

I'm a total noob, so I tried the widely-suggested "CLShortFuse's One-Click Root" (SuperOneClick 2.3.3) but it doesn't seem to work with stock Gingerbread as of yet. I had trouble finding something that both I could understand and that works, but this thread at androidforums has a "for dummies" guide to using Odin and a DesignGears AutoRoot thing, and worked well for me.

Also, if you start getting "TetheringManager" force closes, turn off USB Debugging.

(To give credit, the guide appears to be derived from these two threads: from xda-developers and attdroids.)
[Captivate General] Simsema:

You need to run ACMEUninstaller. You do it the same way you did ACMEInstaller to install CM7 but, of course, you don't need any files in the /cminstall directory when you run it.

edit: That should satisfy any warrantee issues but if you want to be extra careful you could make it "factory fresh" by re-installing webOS. But make sure you run ACMEUninstaller first to get rid of the Android partitions.

So i came back to Mini CM 7 by nAa

Then again i flashes nAa kernel 08 b
