[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jsd6265:
Thanks everyone, that's what i was thinking, it was just strange because apart from the phone freaking out in my pocket it hasn't had any effect, the usb works for everything else.

I don't think it's ISCrewed in particular, it started when i was on CheckROM, i flashed ISCrewed just in case it was something about the hellraised rom.

Thanks again, back to my cappy i guess
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adam8281:
I have the identical issue. Many times a day the phone "chirps" and thinks it has been plugged in/unplugged in, though it hasn't. It also enters and exits driving mode on a similarly random basis. Unfortunately I bought this phone used (though the problem only started this week, and I've owned the phone for 2 months), so I'm fearing that I won't be eligible for RMA. Has anyone had success using the Samsung manufacturer's warranty when they aren't the original purchaser?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justinblaine23:
What ROM are you using?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adam8281:
Unnamed 2.2.1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justinblaine23:
hmm weird I was having problem on ics screwed changed and now no problem recently..hoping it isn't the port!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adam8281:
I've been running Unnamed 2.2.1 since late December, and the problem only started a few days ago, which makes me think it's probably not software related, at least in my case. I've read many accounts of GS2 owners whose USB ports start flaking out and causing identical problems to what I'm experiencing, so my hunch is that's what it is. Before I look into a warranty return, I'm going to clean out the port with rubbing alcohol and a paintbrush.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AllFlasher:
I had this happen as well. It seemed to happen soon after I would flash siyah kernel. happened 3-4 times. For the past month or so have been running only entrophys dd kernel and have not had the issue come back yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justinblaine23:
I was running siyah too been running entropys fine since i switched..idk if kernel glitch or just coincidence
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Been there, done that

I had the exact same problems described above a few months ago. Thankfully, a "knowledgeable" AT&T rep just gave me an 800 number to call...did their obligatory troubleshooting and sent me a replacement (took a few days). Of course, I ordered a USB jig to erase the "root" counters just in case.

I noticed the problem on UnNamed (although it ended up not being the ROM of course) and switched to CM7....seems like I either never had the problem on CM7 or it took a really long time to come back.

Regardless, while i was waiting on the replacement, I removed the battery and, as was said above, swished around a small paintbrush dipped in rubbing alcohol in the USB port....didn't have the problem again. Went ahead and switched out phones anyway...but appeared to be "fixed". Kinda sad though...I rarely even use the USB (switch out between 3 batteries)...never had that kind of problem with my previous "fruit" phone. ;-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adam8281:
I swabbed out the USB port with rubbing alcohol two days ago, and the problem hasn't happened since then. That same day, and since then, I've stopped keeping the phone in the bathroom while I take a shower, on the thinking that the steam could be aggravating the problem. Don't know whether the alcohol or the no-bathroom rule has helped things, but the problem seems to be gone for now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
AWESOME! Hope more people see this...seems to be more common than a Google search would imply.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] slowpc:
Yep , mine has just started doing this the other day... :( Bent the usb port pins a bit and while it is stuck in charging mode (it thinks) it is not jumping to the dock or anything... so as long as i dont turn it off im ok for now. :)

Question is , I am running an ICS build AKOP 4.0.3 , do you think it could be safe doing triangle away (since the usb port is pretty much gone to try a jig might not be worth it) and mobile odin to flash back to stock so that I can bring it into my local att store and see what I can do there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] yobosimn:
You could try telling Samsung that it was a gift. They should be able to determine the original purchase date from the IMEI. I've never dealt with Samsung directly, only At&t. I did a warranty replacement on my original SII last month for the same issue and am now in the process of getting a 2nd replacement for the same issue. Just an FYI, revert to stock before you call them, they'll ask what version you're running, I was running 2.3.4 stock last night. They decided to push the 2.3.6 update to my phone and said I'd have to wait 24 hours before continuing onto getting another replacement. You'll also want to tell them you've already done a factory reset, it'll save you time. I'd recommend grabbing a beer or two for the call, makes working your way through their troubleshooting a bit easier.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjumphard:
i have problem with rebooting. When i select xrecovery reboot in the boot menu, phone turns off, but don't reboot, and then i try to press power on button, but it haven't got any sense, phone no reacting.i need to reinsert battery, then phone turns on. i tried to reinstall rom, but there is no change. I using nAa kernel v10 and cwm 7 2.1.9. and unlocked bootloader. What i need to do? help me people:confused:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] przemek4113:
I have this same problem,i think this is a bug in rom:D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjumphard:
but could i fix it? help! it sucks.:eek:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokerman:
you can fix it..i had the same problem on na10 kernel..i change it to alks kernel v7 ICS and now its ok.:D

if you dont want to change kernel, try to put na11 kernel..maybe its fixed..;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjumphard:
i need to flash nAa11 kernel yes?or what?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjumphard:
thanks man, i have flashed to nAa 11 and it fixed:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
Well,i am posting this because of a lot of mis-consumptions that have arised about us and the ICS team..Some people think that we are the team porting ICS..but we are NOT..The ICS team and us are completely different and not related..For further updates regarding our roms,like our fb page or visit our site...

Hope this takes out all the misconceptions regarding our identities :p

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bagelicious:
Hey guys, I saw this posted over on SlickDeals and didn't see it posted on XDA. Figured I'd post it here in case anyone is interested.

Buy.com has the 16GB Flyer for $199.99 with free shipping. It is a refurbished unit, so hopefully everything works properly. I'm not sure about international shipping charges, I imagine it is only free to the US (could be wrong though).

I jumped on the View 4G sale a month ago for $230~ so this seems like a pretty good deal. Maybe we'll see a surge in the forums with these recent firesales.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
I'm really considering getting one. Not really sure how long the sale is for. I might return my galaxy tab 7 plus and pick this baby up. I am just worried we won't get ICS for it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wasilvers:
I got one

I bought one of these yesterday at 6pm, paid for 2 day shipping and it arrived today at 2pm - 20 hours!!!

It looks great, like I just took it out of the original wrapper. I tried it for a few minutes, then upgraded (I guess that's debatable) to honeycomb. It's leedroid version, so I suppose it should be pretty good.

Now this is the first thread I read in the general section... what ever happened to the days when I would read for days on how to root a new system ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kirbyrj:
I ordered one also. Should be here today with the "cheap" shipping option. Glad to hear the refurbished ones look like new.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] donharden2002:
So I've been thinking of buying one, do you guys think it's worth it or wait for the Asus 7" tab to come out?

Sent from my GT-P7510
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kudosmog:
Never know when the Asus tab will come out.

If you want something now, grab this. I played with the wimax version of the flyer in the sprint store, it's really nice.

I'm not banking on the flyer/view getting ICS at all though. I'm just going to use it for what it is.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
Will the Asus Tab have an active digitizer? I have read conflicting versions about this.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
$10 off Coupon for flyer buy.com purchase!

All, here's a $10 off coupon to use towards that flyer purchase, if you're new to buy.com. it's valid til 3.31.12: http://www.dealigg.com/out.php?id=33516

Just bought mine yesterday using it and they just shipped it today!

$189.99 + $7.09 for 3-5 day standard shipping, expected to knock on my doorstep on Wednesday ^_^
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kudosmog:
I've never heard mention of an active digitizer for the asus tablet. There's really not enough solid information out there.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] twcamc:
Purchased $199 Flyer Arrived Today - NO PEN

Did you all get the pen that comes with the tablet from buy.com? Mine did not and I wanted to check to see if it was not included or just missing?! Thanks
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] staplebox:
I also picked one up for 189. I really hope to get some use out of this at work. I want to replace a ton of paper I generate travelling around from mtg to mtg. I really don't understand why there aren't more pen based tablets out there. If this doesn't work, for 189, I'll just give it to one of my kids to draw on /watch videos.

Based on slick deals advice I got a pen at b&h for $30 shipped. Its a one button model (I have ho idea what that means yet) arrived in a day. Item number FUFPCPN36AP
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
Not included, as per the description.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] 5harkology:
I was going to take advantage of this deal, but now it's $229 :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] donharden2002:
Yep, my order came to $244 total with the 2 day shipping. I think the extra cost is to cover taxes possibly?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
Nah, it's supply and demand. Price went up because people were probably ordering it a lot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kirbyrj:
There are brand new HTC pens on ebay for $54 shipped. The regular 2 button ones, not Fujitsu.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
You can get them from snowman -check the accessories forum- for $41 shipped.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
I almost freaked out when it shot up to $229 on the 16th but then I checked about 3 hours later and it was back to $199. Ordered it immediately after, just in case. Wondered if there was a glitch on their site.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
Back to $229.

:-(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bmoreboy02:
I just bought a brandnew bestbuy version off craigslist for $200
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] 5harkology:
Was that the guy in catonsville? I was trying to get that one, but was 5 mins too late.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Maine_Coon:
Newegg now sells View for $249.

Much better deal IMO.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ai6908:
I would buy view in a heartbeat for that price, if it was a GSM model! Thanks for pointing out though...:)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Maine_Coon:
There is no such thing as GSM View, sorry.

GSM Flyer is still quite expensive .
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ai6908:
Yes indeed...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cmantis:
Deal is back on for $199.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
For a good one or a dead one?

:D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
Anybody receive one from that company that can speak on the quality and whats included??
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] eyedrop:
I ordered one earlier when it was at $199 also from Buy.com

Got it on Wednesday.

It comes in a plain white box, and just comes with the usb wall charger and the tablet itself. No usb cable to connect to pc.

I was surprise at the condition, aside from not having the original packaging, you really couldn't tell it apart from a new one. No scratches on screen, or the back, nothing.

The battery was practically at zero percent when I turn it on, so I had to charge it before I can play with it.

It has Gingerbread installed.

Hope this helps.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
yes that did help. Thanks. So no USB cable? That kinda sucks. So is it just a stand alone 3rd party charger?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bmoreboy02:
Lol yea he was in catonsville
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
Yeah mine came in the exact same way. Just a white box with a white charge cable, unit was pristine. Also was at 0% and GB loaded.

Charged, rooted, upgraded and reloaded my apps from my Archos 70. Thoroughly loving this unit.

Wife is complaining It's too heavy but doesn't really feel that much heavier than the Archos.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
Cool! guys don't forget that $10 off online coupon I posted earlier if you're gonna buy it! I say do it quick before it shoots up again!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cmantis:
Also 2.5% cash back at FW.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] fireshot91:
I ordered one earlier today. For $190, I'm not complaining.

I was going to spend $170 on a Touchpad anyways, so might as well buy a refurb instead of used for $20, and from a place I can at least return to if need be (I CAN return, right?).

I'm very surprised it doesn't come with a cable for PC. Can you not use the charger cable? (Me assuming it uses the same USB port for charging as syncing, and assuming the charger is just a USB wall plug with a USB cable).
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
I'm assuming you can. I want to try this but really want the Asus memo. The return policy may be my best bet.

http://www.buy.com/help/return-policy/67219.html
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Just noticed this thread. I didn't realize it didn't include the stylus or the USB cable. I don't care about the stylus but I am wondering about the USB cable. What kind does it use? My captivate uses standard mini-usb, if thats what it uses, then I got a million of those lying around. Otherwise I need to get on the ball and get a cable ordered!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
I watched a video on YouTube that said the micro USB would work but I can't imagine it would due to the size difference. Maybe someone and can chime I'm and let us know.

I ordered mine yesterday and hope to get it soon. Hopefully I'll get one with mine. Still don't understand why they wouldn't include something like that. Seems odd. If I can use a older cable then it's cool with me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Viper32:
A Micro USB cord works just fine...........

Viper
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wasilvers:
The cord for my captivate worked just fine for rooting, charging, etc...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Cool. Yeah I figured it was pretty standard. The mini usb seems pretty standard on most phones and tablets these days

Wow sounds like alot of people are having issues with the honeycomb update, should I update mine when I get it or leave it gb? I was kinda looking forward to playing with hc
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wasilvers:
I think the is the way to go. Everything (games, programs, Bluetooth) worked right for me in gb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Guess I can always try hc and if it doesn't work I'll revert
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
I've had no issues with HC. Everything i've loaded on it works fine so far. Haven't even loaded any tweaks on the flyer yet as the performance has been great thus far.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
That's good to hear. I'm excited about honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
Thanks for this thread! I almost bought this at xmas for $239. Got it for $211 shipped with that $10 off promo. I'm pretty excited.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] frank-tab:
I just pulled the trigger and bought this too. There was a promo this morning that gave $40 in Buy.com points, so I upgraded my shipping to 2 days, and still have some funds left over to spend on Buy.com.

So is HC not stable on this device? Or did HTC put out a legit HC upgrade?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flaco05:
I am unrooted, OTA HC and it's been perfectly stable.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Yeah I have spent a great deal of time flashing custom roms on my captivate but i'm thinking I might keep this tablet straight stock, hell I'm hearing ics is planned for it too!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] wasilvers:
I wouldn't say hc is unstable, it just wasn't right for me. However, my coworkers uses it on a View and loves it.

To each their own. It's really nice to have choices though!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
Glad I ordered when I did. Looks like it's dead again.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Btw I didn't pay extra for shipping on mine, it really is pointless. I took a the free "5-8" day shipping and I ordered Sunday and my eta is tomorrow. I used to work fed ex and when you pay more for shipping your paying for priority however right now it's dead season in the shipping business and they aren't going to hold your package for 8 days just because you didn't pay for more expensive shipping.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jacobbones:
Played around with my flyer and noticed the firmware is 2.3.3

If I update it is there any way to roll back to what its at now without rooting and flashing?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] frank-tab:
I ordered this yesterday with 2 day shipping and it is showing up to my house any minute today, nice work Buy.com

Question, which version is this HTC Flyer? I noticed there are a few versions out there people title as:

16GB

32GB

BestBuy

T-Mobile

Will only certain Roms work with certain ones? If so, is this one just considered the 16GB one? Trying to understand what is compatible and will work, and what definitely won't.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cmantis:
So I got my case and screen protector last night. When I went to go put it on I noticed there is a small scratch on one side beyond where the screen ends but a nick in the glass over the screen portion just a bit inside the edge. It isn't that big but is slightly noticeable. You think I should deal with returning/exchanging it or just learn to live with it? Otherwise the tablet seems in good condition besides the little nick. It just annoys me since I left it in the packaging until I got my screen protector to avoid anything like this from happening. At least I know I didn't do it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
I just used the free shipping as well. I ordered Monday, its set to arrive Friday. As long as I have a new toy for the weekend I'll be happy. :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
And it is back @ 199.99. what is with buy.com?! LOL seems like they can't make up their minds!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] CCallahan:
This is basically like the Best Buy version....WiFi only & 16gb.

Just got mine today. Free shipping only took a few days.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jjday7:
Ordered Sunday night and it will be here tomorrow. That's with the free shipping. Its only coming from two states away.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Cor-master:
Fed ex about gave me a heart attack this morning. I was at work and checked my tracking number and it said "delivered, left on front door step" so I told my wife and she said it wasn't there. She walked around the house and checked the neighbors porches too, and no dice. So I'm freaking out and I have her call fed ex and they said they'd investigate and report back within 24 hours. 15 minutes later, doorbell rings, and my wife gets it and there's my package. Apparently driver was lazy and decided to scan all his packages delivered before they got there.

Anyway its at home now charging, can't wait to get home and play with it!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] KB112:
I've had that happen before too. Lol My mother in law was at my house at the time and I thought she was just senile. A while later she calls me and says there it is on the door step.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dafluke24:
I got mine today as well after ordering it Friday afternoon. Didn't ship out til Saturday. Opened it up and immediately rooted and installed the LeeDroid rom lol. Mine came in a white box with just an AC charger. The charger plug looked different than what I was use to (did not look like a usb plug?), but I was able to use a regular micro USB cable to charge the tablet. Go figure :D

All in all, I am loving this tablet and $200 was a great deal in my mind.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dbow32:
Question, can you use the wifi hot spot from my thunderbolt with the flyer? Or do you have to root it before it will pick up my phones wifi?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jacobbones:
I use my Droid X2's mobie hotspot and it picks it up just fine. My tablet is stock/nonrooted.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] IDisposable:
I got mine today and at lunch I connected it to the WiFi tether from my SGS4G. No rooting needed.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dbow32:
BTW, the price is up to $243.99. I'm still tempted to get it though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gersto:
Damn! Glad I got mine. Isn't there an EVO view being sold somewhere for that much?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tselling:
I picked up two of these at the $199 price to replace two Nook Tablets. Seems like more value for the money.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] :
Got mine today along with a rubberized hard case. I also got HD anti-glare screen protectors from photodon.com the MXH model.

Bottom white plastic looks a bit dirty, but nothing else wrong. Trying to decide if I want to root..
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lmarsh21:
Purchased mine on the 28th and received it yesterday. Came in a white box with just a a/c charger like others mentioned. Powered it on and messed with it all night. Worked flawlessly. Definately don't regret buying it for 189.00 using a $10 off coupon. for some reason they did include an extra backing for the camera lense in the box. Still contemplating if I should upgrade to HC though.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Fuzi0719:
Got my Flyer at the $199 price. It looks flawless, no scratches or dirt anywhere. I'm going to leave it on Gingerbread. I did OTA to all the Gingerbread stuff, but not doing the Honeycomb update. It runs exceptionally well on Gingerbread, and I really like the touch "buttons" on the bezel that autorotate, and those would be gone if I update to Honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dbow32:
So How hard is it to root?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dafluke24:
Rooting is easy. Just gotta read and follow the directions. I rooted my Flyer in 3 mins (after 30 mins of reading). Then again, I'm use to rooting Android phones, so it wasn't as scary.

It's a matter of installing drivers and running the script and let it do its thing.

Depending on what you currently have on the tablet (GB or HC) there are different ways to root. Mine came with GB and I followed the rooting instructions that LeeDroid's GB rom linked me to.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1314334

Link to Revolutionary: http://revolutionary.io/

It even installed CWM recovery which allows you to easily flash ROMs, Themes, and Kernels.

If you read the FAQ in his thread, there's good information about rooting and other things.

Good luck!

Yeah I know, but it was just disappointing for it to say expected delivery March 2 and now it says delivery March 5th. I work 9-10 hour days and have 4 kids. So I don't have a lot of free time, except for the weekend. Oh well, as long as it gets here. :)
