Yeah...my that's my guess too...likely that my phone just has a little hardware issue...it still works, but I frequently have to hit the back button 2 or 3 times to get it to register...sigh.

i think i bricked my epic 4g touch. i had ics fb21 on it and i tried to restore a gingerbread rom back onto it via cwm and something went terribly wrong. i tried all the steps in qbking77s youtube video about unbricking/unrooting. my phone successfully went through the steps but when it reboots it just boot loops. when i try to boot into recovery it continues to bootloop. download mode is still available? any suggestions? thanks in advanced
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andhow:
Have you tried putting it into download mode and then using one of the one click restores via odin? If its bootlooping, your not at a total loss :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Did you have cwm touch on it ?

actually i did, installed it straight from rom manager. has this been a common problem?

so in odin it stops at data. something ...u got A BRICK should have read what all the devs were saying and the other 10 threads that did the same as you ..... read read read ... when going from ics to gb always odin back to stock first then restore ... look in general you will find many threads about this already

u have a bad data partition and are bricked .... read before doing anything like this ....many people before you did this and there is no way back besides jtag ....

you can take to sprint and they may replace but who knows they may turn you away
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Oh man...ROM Manager and Touch recovery?... not sure if that's fixable
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavd5831:
I believe a few people have said it already. But don't use from manager to flash recoveries. Especially the touch one. You will brick your phone and can't fix it. Only a JTAG service would fix it or a replacement by sprint. Either way good luck and read up on stuff before you try it out.

How many bricks does this make now? I had one. Lol

OH Shix, Dang Dawg, I didn't know there was a such thing as a soft/full brick! I am lucky, I was using mobile odin and flashed the md5 check instead of the tar for fb21 modem and my phone was acting very similar but I just flashed the ONE CLICK EL29 and I was back to stock. hope if you havent tried that, you do and it works for you. I didn't like the touch cwm. but now I am deleting it from sdcard so i dont mistakenly soft/full brick my device. Keep us updated!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r2hudson:
UPDATE

UPDATE

after using odin to unroot/unbrick my epic4gt and having still it fail to turn on passed the boot screen, i took my busted phone back to sprint on monday. told them what the problem was, "my phone wont go passed the first screen when i turn it on". they said "ok, we'll just erase everything off, should be as good as new".

i stood around waiting for about 45 minutes, i was so bored i even shamefully sent out a tweet from an iphone..smh. sales associate then came back to me saying," ive never seen anything like this, nothing will work on it, you must have rooted this phone?" my response was "i have done nothing to that phone".

with a kinda upset smirk on his face he says, "it had to be rooted buuuuut since we have no proof we will order you a phone for free, come pick it up friday." :D:D:D

life has been so tough w/out my epic for a whole week, happy that i get my new one on friday
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
You know...

I'm starting to wonder how I feel about ppl that brick their phones, through fault of their Own, then take them into sprint claiming the "update broke it!", "i never rooted that! i have No Idea what you're talking about!", and I wonder if this is going to make it harder for people with Legitimate issues to get replacements, and affect the way Sprint looks at rooting our phones in general. This Affects Their Bottom Line.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] asl9622:
Alright guys I am in a pickle. I am running stock rom with no root on my sgs2. Yesterday I wanted to experiment with Skype and voice calling. The only person I tried it with was my fiancees number. Something popped up and I think it was from the android os and not Skype application, telling me something to the extent that video calling was not meant for the phone... allow yes or no. I was distracted and didn't really read it and hit yes. So here comes the problem

I Skype called her with video no problem, but anytime I try to dial her number with android os it force closes. It is only her number that this happens to. So I deleted her and all joined contacts and reentered her number. Also I uninstalled Skype. Everything worked! But when I relink her facebook, linkedin etc the phone force closes again. So right now I am just using her number and all is well without linking anything.

Any ideas on what I said yes to and how to undo it without a factory wipe?

Thanks I know it might be hard to understand what happened.

I should be able to just plug it in and start the game and it will work right? I don't have any options in GTAIII or Shadowgun to activate or setup the xbox controller. The videos I've seen for shadowgun, the game seems to have an option that is not available in my install of the game.

HI

I am using a transformer with

Build Number: HTK75.CN_epad-8.6.5.1-20111216

I have used Natchoroot to root it and it was ok, everything run smooth by then, after that i downloaded, superuser, Voodooo root keeper which specifies that my transformer is rooted, i also did titanium backup successfully which is also an indication that my device is rooted as far as i can tell

Now that the ICS is already here, i still didnt get the update, however i think it'd take a while to come to china with all the restrictions they put on the device (No maps, No Market, No youtube, No facebook, and you name it)

Anyway i thought it'd probably be a better to just flash a WW version of ICS

but a few minutes ago i tried to download CWM from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1346180

And as soon as i try to open it, it tells me that my device is not rootes although like i mentioned before everything indicates that i am rooted because when i open voodoo ota keeper i get the message that it was granted superuser permissions.

So can anyone refer me to other mean to install a CWM ? i've searched the forums but all of the ones i've found are newer version and they all require to already have an older version of CWM

Thanks for your help

Its probably just a battery reminder, like when it gets to a certain level it reminds you so you can plan ahead if your away from a charger. I don't know this for sure but that would make sense! I don't see any option to turn it off, maybe in a future update or custom rom!

That icon appears when you plug the tablet in to the charger, it lets you know the battery level and it plays a chime. If it's not a software fault, might be something with the charging port. Maybe it's defective and it's detecting a charger plug that's not actually there?

I can confirm I also get this. It really is annoying and random. I'm yet to find a pattern to it.

The tablet is not on charge. It is not docked. Just the tablet.

Hi there, at the moment on my nexus, I am running MIUI and I was thinking about moving to hypersense, here are my questions about using blackrose and the rom

No, but if you don't change the rom before restarting it goes in bootloop

[myTouch 4G General] Novarox:
Hey all,

I've been a long time lurker on these forums and I've noticed quite a few people upgrading to the Sensation. From what I can tell, there's a way to get a FREE Sensation by sending your mt4g to T-Mobile for repairs since HTC no longer makes the mt4g. Is this correct? I asked a T-mo customer service rep and she said it isn't true. Of course, she could have been told to tell customers that so we don't all suddenly break our phones and have a new more expensive phone given to us.

If this is true, how can I return a phone after I've rooted it? I've seen various guides on how to return to stock and put s-on back. Would this be enough to get passed the voided warranty issue of a rooted phone?

What if my mt4g is actually in 100% working condition? Is there a safe way to damage it just enough to warrant a replacement?

Thanks, all! Sorry if this was posted in the wrong area.
[myTouch 4G General] oak25:
Becareful because sometimes they send you the Mytouch.. LG version
[myTouch 4G General] Novarox:
Yeah, I read about that too. I would tell them up front that I will not accept a downgrade but require a phone of equal or greater value. I'm used to crappy service from these big companies and have found that if you make a big deal out of something, they'll do anything they can to shut you up.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
only a few lucky people have gotten the Sensation as a replacement... :/

it kinda depends on whether you get a good rep or not... if you get a bad one.. well good luck with that... lol

as far as bricking... i guess you could always flash a Radio or some system file not made for this device... but be careful with that
[myTouch 4G General] Novarox:
Thanks for the reply, S, but I never mentioned bricking in my post lol.

So it looks like the only two devices that are given as replacements are the Sensation and the LG mt4g, right?

Now to my final question; how do you purposely cause your phone to malfunction so T-mo will have to replace it while not voiding your warranty? My guess is to press one of the hardware keys hard enough so it gets stuck. Probably the track pad since I've read reports of people getting theirs stuck. Worst case scenario here is that your phone has no track pad, but who uses that on their mt4g anyway?
[myTouch 4G General] estallings15:
Uuuh, that's what saranhai was referring to. Reread his post.
[myTouch 4G General] oak25:
be careful, I think in your situation it would be best to report it lost. Personally, my wife lost her phone and they were going to send us an LG phone, but I said no way. It is the MT4G or a better phone. I also told them that my contract is up in a few months and will leave if i get an LG. They said they will call me back today.
