[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i believe that my phone thinks my power button is always pressed down too, but fastboot works here. my suggestion is that you try a different usb chord. i had an usb chord that i could charge with fine, but nothing else worked. i thought my nexus one was messed up until i tried another usb chord.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forumsid987:
I tried 3 cords, I'm going crazy here! USB works perfect everywhere but both fastboot and recovery don't let me use my volume or power buttons...at least I can get by in recovery because of the capacitve buttons but I need fastboot to return to stock to get a new phone. I am so frustrated!!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
have you tried pdanets website? http://junefabrics.com/android/

go there, download the free download and install it to youre computer. its tethering software. but thats not why you should try it. follow the on screen instructions after its installed and itll install the proper latest drivers for your phone. theres a chance your drivers might be out of date.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forumsid987:
oh yeah. Used pdanet drivers and Google drivers. No luck with either. I can adb with both but like I said the deicer is not the issue it's that fastboot is totally unresponsive so it looks like nothing is connected to the pc

anyone have any other options/ideas for me?? It would be greatly appreciated

Find an Odin package. Put phone into download mode by installing battery, holding volume buttons while connected to USB.

Does anyone know if the 301k ohm resistor jig works for ns?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forumsid987:
ODIN doesn't work because of the gosh darn power button being broken.

I went kinda crazy and erased everything in recovery so now all the phone does is boot straight into fast boot. I deleted the boot.img recovery everything, hahahaha (I laugh but really I'm crying inside).

I need a fix ASAP, I'm officially out of a phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistaJae:
Wow, this actually worked for me :) Thanks Simms!

I just got stuck in the same situation (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22884288&postcount=24) so I kept tapping the back of my phone (with the back cover off). Fastboot kept restarting at first, but then my volume keys started allowing me to change options. I selected recovery and nandroid restored my phone. Now all is well *wipes brow*

Funny thing is, my power button now works properly again (it hasn't been working for the past week)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kajik123:
have you found any solution? I have the exact same problem here: powerbutton stucks and no usb-recognition in fastboot (no luck with the tapping either) but no problem with adb in normal mode.

would be great to know if you found a way to deal with this. Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zerox1000:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yioti:
When I open the camera app, the front camera shows just a black screen but when I switch the camera over to the back it works perfectly. So after I found this problem I started experimenting with the app and I found that when I switched from the back camera to the front the front camera started to work but this has only happened once and now after it has stopped working all together even when trying to switch the cameras. I tried taking a picture with the front camera and it comes up with an error 'Cannot connect to camera ' so I Googled this error and people on other forums with different devices said that doing a factory reset will fix the problem so I also tried this using CWM but it still shows the black screen, so guys and gals what do you suggest?

Help much Appreciated

Thanks

When i use the stock kernel or siyah kernel the dynamic mode is very saturated and the Colors pop which i like. When i use a kernel like speed mod, neak, or phenomenal the dynamic setting seems more like the standard settings. Someone said this is because the developer has purposely tweaked the Colors so they are like this. My question is can i over saturate them?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
So I've had my Note for 2 days now and I've noticed that Google talk never stays connected. When I wake the phone up and open Gtalk it always shows that it had lost the connection and then starts reconnecting. I'm in the middle of Atlanta and I have never once left LTE coverage, so I know its not a handoff issue.

Has anyone else had trouble with this? Think I'm gonna get the phone switched out for a new one today if this turns out to be just me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] trazbot:
I currently have the same issue, but it's been happening on my last couple of devices before I got my note. Last time I checked / googled (about a month ago) there were a lot of people having this issue with various devices and no solid solution yet so you probably won't need to switch out your note as it may not help.

I've tried a number of things with no success but if anyone else has ideas that would be great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
Wow that is very dissapointing. My Captivate I had before this had no problems what-so-ever with google talk. I really don't want to have to switch back to that, but I use Google talk a lot and it might be a deal killer for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mauijpm:
Have you tried a 3rd party app?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
No, and to be honest I wouldn't consider that a solution. If my apticate running stock gingerbread was able to work fine with the stock app, then this should too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clubtech:
I had the Skyrocket, Note and Their LTE elevated 4g. with ALL the at&t LTE devices gtalk will not stay signed in. In fact you are getting disconnected from the Google servers when this happens wo you won't be getting gmails either.

This has been going on for months and mostly happens in LTE markets.

If anyone found a solution to this problem please share.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
I actually ended up exchanging mine for a new one, and the new one has never lost the connection whether it be gtalk or google servers in general. I've stayed in the exact same LTE market as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clubtech:
When did you exchange it and what market are you in? Maybe they fixed the problem.I last checked early march and it was still happening in San Francisco
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
I exchanged it last Monday the 12th, the new one never had the problem from the very beginning. I am in the Atlanta area, it seems like it is a problem of individual phones if exchanging for a new one fixed it for me, also not everyone is experiencing the problem from what I can tell.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eddie Bombay:
I have the same issue. Seems like my Atrix doesn't have that problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clubtech:
This is not related to a device as I tested with 3 different lte devices and they all had the same issue. I then placed the same sim card in my none lte galaxy note and the problem went away. I haven't checked since early March as I am out of the country but who knows...maybe they finally fixed the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] camaroz28:
There have been no software updates to this phone at all, I'm using the stock ROM too. If my first phone had the problem and my second one doesn't, that means its an issue with individual devices (maybe a lot if you had the problem on 3 different ones). The chances of there being any changes on AT&T's side at the exact moment I exchanged my phone are absurdly small.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clubtech:
I understand that but i had 4 different devices (LTE note, Galaxy II Skyrocket, One of their new LTE LG phone - forgot the name and their Elevate 4G LTE mifi). They were all on different lines with different simcards and they ALL had the google talk issue.

The only time this was not happening with an LTE device is when i traveled outside of an LTE coverage zone. This is the only time the connection was stable.

You must agree that it is impossible that all of these devices were defected right?

I also have a none LTE galaxy note and a galaxy nexus and this is not happening on those devices (as they are not LTE).

It is something with their LTE network setup that is killing the connection to the Google servers after a certain time of idle.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
Just thought I'd add that I'm in an area where I'm on the very edge of the nearest LTE tower, so I'm constantly switching between that and HSPA+ (and WiFi while at home) and I haven't noticed any issues with staying connected with GTalk. None of my friends have noticed me getting disconnected either. The only issue I've had is it doesn't always set me to away when the screen is locked, although it does seem to always set me as Online when I unlock the screen.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I was unable to install either of the OTA updates we captured through the stock recovery once S-ON. Tried applying as-is and renaming to update.zip, multiple times, wouldn't take.

I have had no issues installing these updates without renaming them through the stock recovery when S-OFF. I would have preferred to install the OTA updates through recovery and use the PG59IMG.zip file afterwards, but it didn't want to do it that way.

I ended up getting the first one through HTC download, and using the new 1.55.531.3 PG59IMG.zip I found to bring me current.

----

Apparently this leaked PG59IMG.zip file, if flashed to a device, will solve the problem with the HTC Unlock-Bootloader tool and allow users to complete the process.

(Confirmed! - Sweet.)

Go for it man - I was actually just about to message you about it and let you know we could do it, i'm eating my dinner and trying to clean up some loose ends in threads with the new knowledge we have now.

If you (or anyone) can figure out how to take something i've done and make it easier for other people to do - i'm all about it - that's progress!

Just link back to this thread so if people get stuck they can view the process and troubleshoot if necessary.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
btw 2 questions.....

1. could you s-on then go stock (or would it brick)

2. if you do fastboot oem write secureflag 0....wouldn't it S-off?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
for the first one - no, it doesn't but you MUST absolutely MUST flash to STOCK RETAIL first, then do a factory reset and wipe the sdcard BEFORE writing the command.

If you are not 100% stock and do it, you will have security mis-match errors and probably brick.

Do not use the new PG59IMG.zip file I found today that is for the most recent OTA update - use the old one we've been that's linked in this thread. That'll bring you back to stock for retail launch.

----

for the second:

Yep - but you can't use a write command if you are S-ON.

I think it's more forgiving going back to S-ON then going to S-OFF - you might brick doing it that way. Somehow the rev method prevents the other checks (like from radio) from working - just setting it to S-OFF might not work the same way.

Going backwards to S-ON is fine as long as you are completely stock when you do it. Any custom anything and you have a world of trouble.

(exception would be SuperCID - not sure if there are any other exceptions)

( and it's: fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 - you put an extra space in.

1410mah / 278 = ~5h of battery time

simply phone eats battery more than normal, under normal conditions upper value should be ~200mah but it seems that our phone takes that much just by sitting in home screen when phone is unlocked

Strange, today, my phone, (even after not installing any background using apps) battery is acting strange, hitting from 190 - 324 mA, with standby current at -1mA, I lost 55% battery last night on standby, I gave it a full charge this afternoon and it's already on 33% after 7 hours. :eek: something is definitely wrong after every charges.
[Nokia Lumia 800] BarrieSimpson:
Well I have been having the same problems with the battery as you guys, but here is a new twist:

Last night, before charging, I switched the phone off completely. Then I plugged it into the charger and of course the phone switched itself on and started charging. Fully charged at around 11pm so I unplugged it and went to bed. It is now 1pm in the afternoon and am still at 75% charge and the phone tells me it'll be good for another 16 hours........

Not seen that before now.

[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
I'm starting to think that either a) Nokia knows they have a few defective devices and doesn't want to replace them unless customer complains or b) Nokia doesn't realise that there are defective devices and can't acknowledge the complaints but are replacing the handsets with the most complaints received.

Makes me think, have they become cowboys on there successful mobiles? :mad:
[Nokia Lumia 800] Halle:
surely, the Lumia 800 is a thirsty thing. My one year old Iphone 4 has better battery life. Last night, in airplane mode, my Lumia drained from 90% to 53% in about 7 hrs.

Yesterday I had to buy a charger to use at work. It's a shame since it's really a wonderful phone..

The HTC HD2 har better Battery life.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
Try a factory reset if you have not done so yet. It has helped many with battery issues such as yours. Your battery drain is not normal at all and I would not accept it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Maszt:
Hi

I have got Lumia for few days, and can't really say how long it works. First day didn't shocked me, but it was acceptable (About 3/5 day, little sad, but nothing to do about it), because all my friends wanted to play with this phone. Yesterday when it had about 20-25% of baterry I decided to check standby time and it gives me standby/very light usage 17hours, so it's nice.

Today when I was charging I looked into diagnostics and it was very strange for me, because it shown average current over 300mA, then I started game to see what would happen, and it gave me about 250-260mA. Strange? After this I turn game of, played little bit with settings and unchecked localization in camera and turn on general localization (because I turn off localization few minutes before), and guess what? 80-86mA! This is sick. I try to turn localization in camera to check if it causes hard battery drain, but after this nothing happened, still 80-86mA. I think it's lottery...

After disconnecting charger it show now 167mA, but I noticed that this app drain lots of power, so I uninstal it.

Phone shows now 1 day and 15 hours (Actually it was showing, because when I turn on diagnostic it ate 1% of battery, and now I'm charging it again, to gain full capacity)

PS: Sorry for my bad English :)

And My F/W is: 1600.2483.8107.11501
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
The best I can do is 2 days and 5 hours, that's with Edge connection only, mobile data off, 30 mins WiFi internet browsing (WiFi turned off all other times), no bluetooth, location turned off, no email/facebook sync, brightness on auto, no background apps whatsoever, a fair few texts and a couple of calls.

If I turn on google mail sync (every hour), my battery life wont last any longer than 10 - 12 hours max. Really don't understand why that kills the battery so much...

I got a craaaaazy reading today too, check this:
[Nokia Lumia 800] BarrieSimpson:
Gremlins, it's the only explanation.

I did the same switch off and then plug in on thursday and all I got was 10 hours at best. However, friday I did the same and now as we speak (8:30 pm) I still have 16 hours to go.....

Barrie
[Nokia Lumia 800] Maszt:
Mine (actually not mine - I switched phones with my mom, I will write in other post why) got crazy too.

It's after hard reset from menu and few sim changes (don't know what is responsible for this :) maybe date change) but it looks like this:

View attachment 920570

If it comes to battery life, I'm little disappointed with it, because burn battery really fast, but after this reset it's on standby for about day now, but mostly standby, maybe two calls, and some very little actions on IE and no auto sync (but 3G and data on, no wifi, because I have good).

But If it stays like this, I think it should make up a day with medium use, but still, this is not what I've seen in video on nokia youtube channel :)

And of course I would be glad to have two days medium-heavy usage like some people saying in comments under that video.
