Yeah the process for them to add back your unlimited data plan is serious process. They have to file a internal case to have their domestic data department to actually make sure everything transpired inappropriately. Its quite a hassle and can take up to a week.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Aerials:
By cheaper..Will Walmart be selling it for like $20 cheaper initially? (As in for like 1st week of release)

Some people seem to think that Amazon Wireless or other 3rd party retailers may sell them for as cheap as $200 rather soon after the initial release.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
Purchase at best buy...have them match the walmart price
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] phillyrican:
I doubt very much you will get it any cheaper then bestbuy your getting a $80 discount when you account for the $50 bucks and free case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chrstndsgnr:
I actually work at a Walmart Wireless (new prototype of the connection centre) and we've not heard anything about carrying the Note on launch day. not to say it won't happen, but doesn't seem likely in my area of the country at least.

On a side note, I've upgraded a lot of people with grandfathered unlimited data and never had anyone lose it. The associate just has to call in to AT&T and do the upgrade manually. Customer keeps their data and the store still gets the commission.

Hi!

You read the topic, I will tell you what happened.

I rooted my phone (Galaxy W - original DBT sales code with I8150XXLA2_I8150DBTKJ1_I8150XXKL3), it was a little tricky.

Originaly it had the LA2 Stock Firmware on it and I had to flash a lower firmware (I8150XXKL3_OXXKL2_XEU) on it. After this I could root my phone.

OK. I played a little bit around and the biggest mistake (i think) - for me - was to test the [ROM] GingerICE 1.0 (Android 2.3.6, Custom .35 Kernell).

After I did my phones language was malaysian I think. I could turn it to English but I didn't like the FW and I only wanted to test it.

The next thing I did was to flash a stock Firmware (again the I8150XXKL3_OXXKL2_XEU), a strange thing was that in the telefon infos the phone was not mentioned as root, but it wasn't really unrooted.

When I connect to KIES it says my phone is incompatible and can't be updated.

If I try to select the sales code via the *#272*IMEI# combination there is only XEU, the original DBT (for germany) is gone. There are 10 or more others to choose, but not DBT.

So I really wanted to unroot and put a stock firmware on it to give it a rebirth and get it as it was as I got it. (or 99% percent as I got it)

First I used the DooMLoRD_v1_UNROOTING tool, it went through everything fine (I read everythng in the DOS Box) and suceeded, but the phone was NOT unrooted! There was no superuser, but it is STILL ROOTED.

Then I tried the unroot.zip file.

I first rooted it again, to have the CWM recovery and after that I turned the Samsung into recovery mode and choose the unroot.zip from the recovery menu and - surprise - it is STILL ROOTED!

I can't believe it. People have problems to get their device rooted, I have problems to unroot mine.

The best thing would be a reset to sales code DBT and any stock firmware - don't matter how old.

Are there any ideas what I can do?

I wanted to post it in the development section but I have to write 10 posts first.

If someone could help me you would make me really happy!!

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] THE-E:
Hi,

my solution would be:

1. Backup everything manually what you can!

2. Flash via ODIN ClockWorkMod Recovery on your device(english). Scroll down to other and select ClockWorkMod.

If you prefer a german instruction. Runterscrollen zu Sonstiges ;-)

3. Once ClockWorkMod is flashed, go to the recovery:

a) backup and restore -> backup to external sdcard

b) backup and restore -> restore from external sdcard

This is to make sure the files aren't corrupted, if this is successful you can be sure everything is backupped. If you get a MD5 mismatch something went wrong. Try again!

c) wipe data/factory reset -> confirm

d) wipe cache partition -> confirm

e) mounts and storage -> format system -> confirm

f) mounts and storage -> format cache -> confirm

g) mounts and storage -> format data -> confirm

4. You restart your phone in Download Mode and flash the german DBT firmware using this instruction, which is provided in the thread under Firmwares.

If you prefer a german instruction.

5. Now you will have to flash again the ClockWorkMod recovery to restore your data.

Than open ClockWorkMod Recovery and:

backup and restore-> advanced restore from external sdcard -> select the backup -> Restore data -> confirm.

Now if you want the stock recovery back(needed for OTA updates) instood of ClockWorkMod, than go to the Others or Sonstiges and select the stock recovery, and flash it on your device.

6. Now you should have a fresh and unrooted device like you have never rooted/flashed!!!

Oh yeah, the reason why you have to make these complicated steps: Because you were flashing all different kinds of firmwares, you system will be a mess. To make sure your device is not a overwritten old firmware these steps are necessary.

Flashing via ODIN does not delete all old data !!!

Hi!

I just read your answer.

Thanks A LOT

for this step by step answer.

I will try this, but I can't do it this evening, but as soon I did it I will post if it was sucessfull.

I am from Germany - you seem to be from germany too?

I think there a lot of smartphone/computer "freaks" from germany in boards all around the globe!

Anyway, my english isn't perfect but good enough to read instructions and follow these.

Again thanks a lot,

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
Yes once you have flashed the stock ROM do a factory reset to ur phone n best to format ur SD to be sure
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] THE-E:
But it is important to make a backup on your physical sd card. ClockWorkMod does not backup the SD card.

But if you ask me, it is not necessary to format the sd card(internal). External sd is anyway not required to format.

And yes I am from Deutschland :-D If you have problems with my explainations, just PM me, I will answer you in german.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Lienot:
Hi!

1st - Sorry for the late answer. I am a little lazy in writing. :(

Everything is fine now! My Samsung W is absolutely unrooted.

When I use the *272... combination it gives me no choice, there is only DBT and this is - at the moment - exactly what I wanted to have.

I had wiped the handy and the cache before and it didn't worked well, but after I did the things you wrote "format/mounts and storage..." it finally worked!

Thanks again, I will 100% percent keep on flashing, but it is a little different with the galaxy W. I had the SGS2 before and there were dozens of ROMS and it was no problem to change anything in the phone, there was a solution for everything.

I'll give the Galaxy W a little time, until then I love my Phone as it is.

I didn't want such a big phone anymore, it is just tooo big, so I stepped down to the W.

Have a nice evening, :cool:

did you notice the micro hdmi cable for 15 cents?!?! Bought 2 for $6!!!????! Is that cheap? I have never bought each table before so I am not sure what is the proper pricing on items like this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] id10terrordfw:
Big box retailers would have you believe they are quite expensive. The opposite is in fact true, they have a HUGE markup on any cable. This has been a truism for quite a long time. Your best bet is to go with Amazon or Monoprice for all your cable needs, emphasis on Monoprice. They almost always have the best price and have always been good quality for me, and likely others on this forum.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
They all look the same but they're not all built the same. When I had a G2X about a dozen people had their devices fried using micro-HDMI cables all purchased from the same discount vendor on Amazon. High-end like Monster's a total waste and overkill but the cheap Chinese specials can end up costing you a fortune if they short out. If something's to good to be true, it usually is.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Doktaphex:
Couldn't help but see this statement and laugh. Monster and High-end should never ever be in the same sentence together. Their products are absolute garbage, but unfortunately somehow they have managed to achieve this pseudo-status of quality product in the US.

I have a cousin who has worked in pro audio for years and the name Monster is one that leaves a bad taste in the mouth from their awful lies to consumers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] guitar1969:
I am not sure this is a big deal anymore. At least in SoCal, seems they are available here and there. Bought one a few weeks back off the shelf at Microcenter but returned it due to wifi and lockup issues.

At this point seems like the wise move is to wait for the next one coming out in 2nd quarter 2012 or look at an ipad3, or next Galaxy.

For the price of the Prime it shouldn't have the issues it has - big disappointment.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Interesting. My old car had AUX and buying any other brand of cable resulted in an awful sound within weeks if not months if the cable didn't completely degrade early on. Spent $5 more for Monster cable and that thing lasted me for 3 years before getting my new car with BT and the sound was great.

The only Monster product I ever bought and it completely murdered every other brand at Best Buy that manufactured aux cables.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] XHolyPuffX:
I got a monster component video cable on Amazon for $15 to use for my Youtube recording, and aside from that thing being a thick heavy snake, it performed basically the same as a cheaper cable. That thing is so heavy that you could kill someone with it if you swung it hard enough. I suppose reliability is bulky :cool:

Hi, I just bought my SGN and I really like it so far!

Under gingerbread(or it might be a CM7 option i'm not quite sure) there was an option under the keyboard setting that asked you for how long you would like to have a key pressed to access the 2nd fonction of that said key (example: if you hold Q it will switch to 1, if you hold W it will switch to 2, etc)

I can't seem to find this option under ICS and I really dont like the default timing since it's wayyyy too long, is there a way to change that?

Thanks alot!

I just got my new Bionic and was updated to 902.

I rooted the device and was doing a restore (using Titanium) of some apps I had on my original Droid.

By accident, I restored ADW Launcher - which I didn't want.

How do I get rid of it? I can't uninstall it, and can't seem to flash a stock ROM since I can't find one that works with 902.

Any help?

The issue is that now ADW Launcher is my launcher - and I can't get the stock launcher back. somehow, I think ADW replaced the stock launcher. How do I get it back?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
Try using r3l3ased and for3v3r root to go all the way back then path saver to bring you back up to date. Or install the liberty rom because it lets you install Blur
[Motorola Droid Bionic] adamslovik:
Can i install liberty on 902? That sounds like the easiest way forward...

Adam
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I believe so. I have a thread named path saver that links to instructions on how to install path saver and liberty with .902. You can find it in bionic general. For some reason, the original thread that I linked to was in general android development and not bionic development. I swear xda needs better moderators because the bionic page is so disorganized.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
Try home switcher for blur don't remember the exact name but I believe that should do it or try cleared ng defaults first the downloading that app

I've searched all over and can't find info on this...

I'm new to this, but was able to successfully get Codename Android running on my phone without a problem (started with 1.2, then 1.3.2, and now 1.3.3). I did all the wipes and factory resets prior to upgrading each time but I've never been able to get 5 columns to appear on my homescreens despite selecting it in the options. Is anyone else having this problem?

BTW, this is the first ROM I tried and love it. If I can get this column thing squared away, it would be even better.

Whoops!:confused: my bad thats rows....Do you have nova launcher installed? you prolly do as i think most of the custom roms come with it....Look for a app called (nova settings) if you cant find it hold down on your homescreen till you see a popup and select (nova actions) then select (nova settings) it will now be on your desktop so select it and go under (homescreen) then (desktop grid) change columns to 5 and you should be good to go...i just did it and it worked perfectly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] G111444:
Thanks for reply. I've heard of nova but was hoping i could make CNA do it since it is advertised as a feature. I will try nova

Edit: tried nova but prefer CNA launcher. So, if anyone can help get 5 columns?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rickt:
I have a 5 row 5 column layout and I'm using ADWLauncher EX.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staticx57:
Use nova. They are all based off the stock launcher anyways in terms of looks and functionality. Any difference you see is due to options you have set. The fact is nova is the most versatile.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rynek:
So this morning after watching several videos online last night, on my non-rooted nook, the wireless wasn't working.

When I would try and go into the B&N wireless settings screen, it would do nothing (go black) or say that wireless is stalled (do you want to wait or force close). So I forced close, hoping it would reboot automatically.

Well, I tried to turn off the device and the screen went black but the backlight stayed lit like it was supposed to be on for several minutes after I had powered down.

Eventually I got the blacklight off (it might have just gone off by itself), but now it won't turn back on.

The battery was at 30% when I tried to initially power it down.

I haven't tried the power and n button 30 second cycle, because I don't want to lose what I have on it. Any ideas of how to get it back on, without factory reset?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
I can remember some other issues like this were reported. I believe one solution was to let it charge a few hours and attempt to power back up. Not sure if this will work for you, but give it a shot.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] SCClockDr:
Plug in Charger (Might wake it up).

Connect USB to computer (Might wake it up).

Hold in power button 20 seconds to power off then power on.

The last option just worked for me for a black screen (Loop?) issue.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
When that has happened to me (and it has), I held down the power button for about 30 seconds. Then let the unit sit for a couple minutes. Then held the power button down for about 5 seconds. Eventually, it always started back up.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rynek:
30 second hold

The 30 second hold and wait worked well. Thanks.

[Android] GuestK0065:
Hi all!

I'm fairly new to this whole ROM development thing, and the most I know how to do is use the kitchen to modify working ROMs to my leisure.

Lately I've been trying to port/build CM7 to my device, which is fairly new (and only recently got a forum here on XDA) which is the Samsung Galaxy W (codename Ancora).

First I tried to use as a base existing CM7 ROMs from devices with similar hardware, by just modifying the updater-script to put the files in the right partitions, however with no luck.

So then I decided to download the sources for CM7 and try to port using a generic build and then filling in the blanks related to hardware and such, but again with no luck (maybe related to something I heard about samsung specific patches?)

So now I'm trying to build it from source for the device, but I'm stuck at creating a vendor folder that works.

I've updated most the files that need updating but I keep getting this error:

build/core/product_config.mk:205: *** No matches for product "cyanogen_galaxyw". Stop.

I've inserted the references need in almost all files called but still nothing. Any ideas?

When I setup lunch
[Android] medizen:
When you run . build/envsetup.sh does it populate lunch with cyanogen_galaxyw?

i.e "including device/samsung/galaxyw/vendorsetup.sh"

it should populate lunch with an option to select for the cyanogen_galaxyw.

You're building on Linux

Lunch menu... pick a combo:

1. full-eng

2. full_x86-eng

3. simulator

4. medizen_olympus-eng

Which would you like? [full-eng]

If not check your vendorsetup.sh that is in your vendor/(Brand)/(Device) directory.
