[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karendar:
Well most dead pixel fixers should run for hours and not minutes... Also, there's the pressure technique which consists of pressing down on the dead pixel. Only catch is you can't really do that with the SGS2 because of the glass. So your best bet is return the phone for warranty replacement (If possible)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nelsonoski1972:
U said it is a dead pixel and u want to cure it using old tech used for LCD screens.:D:D:D

Our GS2 has AMOLED screen which is different from LCD.

LCD pixels physically twist to let block or allow light through them which is why they get stuck.Here all those apps or home remedies may work.

For an AMOLED pixel to get "stuck", it would have to burn out meaning it would be permanently black, or if the controller had a short that for some reason continually told a particular pixel to stay a particular color.

To make long story short-claim factory warranty ASAP.

Hi,

I am on BB 71, Fxp kernal, MiUI black editionHD rom and now I am facing this error of not able to log into the google ac form my phone.

I am able to browse the data on a browser but not through any applications like the XDA nor market etc... I tried all the tricks from this forum like a complete fresh install from the BaseBand till the application, also through youtube login but none of these seems to work out.

I have also tried the MIUI data drop patch, All these still prove to be useless as I am unable to login to the google account.

Anyone with the same experience??
[HTC Sensation] FuKe:
Hey peeps. After I've installed the Android Revolution HD 6.3 on my HTC Sensation, I can't connect it to my PC. When I plug in the USB cable, the phone starts to charge, but it doesn't show me the menu where I can select "Charge mode only" or "Use as filestorage".

When I go into the settings menu and hit the "Connect to PC" icon, the settings menu crashes.

Have anybody else experienced this, and / or know how to fix it?

Regards

FuKe
[HTC Sensation] Manuel Büchel:
Hi FuKe,

i've also tried ARHD but ended up with Insertcoin - it seems to be a little better of stability.

However, here are some possible solutions that I can think of:

- Flash the new 3.30 firmware

- Try to clear the data of the "Connect to PC"-App

- Do a full wipe and flash ARHD again.

Best regards
[HTC Sensation] FuKe:
I have already flashed the new 3.30 firmware :)

- Do you know how I can clear the data of the "Connect to PC" app? :)
[HTC Sensation] Manuel Büchel:
You can find it under settings -> apps -> all apps (I don't know the correct terms - I'm using German Sensation). However, if you choose the app "connect to pc" (or sth. like this) you have the option to clear the data.

okay ADB was successful, however my phone was acting up and kept rebooting. I reflashed the	at&t modem with Odin. I flashed the t mobile modem again through ADB successfully with the same results. I reflashed the at&t modem again through Odin. then I tried the method that kc720 used in post #15 with the same results. Now I'm back on the default at&t modem again. I am using an active t mobile sim card. If I can get the t mobile modem to stick I can then dial *#2263# and attempt to use the wcdma 1700 band that does show up with my t mobile sim card though when I try to use it with the at&t modem I just get the circle with the line through it where my bars should be. Hope this helps. I really want the 1700 frequency to work and ready to try something else

I was told by eugene373 that the CSC + Modem file's plus kernel + Modem.bin need to be edited to get 4G without the freeze issue. We also need a custom rom or a modified sgs2 like rom that will play well on the note. That may be the easiest route. Some could probably build blind but still may need the device.

So first things first. I want someone who knows how to pull a logcat to flash this specific T-mobile T989 modem with odin - http://www.4shared.com/file/GLhtc1O_/PDA_KL1_modemtar.html

After you've flashed that modem, reboot and pull a logcat. I want to see what it's doing when it's getting all laggy/freezing. Then we can go from there. I checked the build.props and they are IDENTICAL with the exception of the different phone models/fingerprint (makes no difference concerning data).

I checked the logcats in that other thread but didn't see anything useful. I really need someone to flash ONLY the tmo sgs2 modem and then run a logcat while it's freezing up. And yes you must have a TMO sim card for this to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lboy109:
so i have both the t989 and the i717 and t-mobile 4g data plan.

tell me what to do, i never pulled a logcat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Whitehawkx:
First things first... you HAVE to be comfortable using odin. This will render your phone unusable momentarily, though it can be recovered by odining the stock rom back on. If you are not comfortable with this than do not do anything. ^^

Now, if you are still with me what you need to do first is download a logcat app from the market. I always use catlog (i think thats what its called). Go to settings and set it up to record every 10 lines.

Now you need to flash this modem onto your phone using odin http://www.4shared.com/file/GLhtc1O_/PDA_KL1_modemtar.html - after you've done that reboot, and then go and open that logcat app up and set it to record. Recording saves everything as a text document on your sdcard so you can pull it later. Very nifty.

Now just use your phone. Ppl have reported the phone freezes after flashing a tmobile modem. I'm wanting a logcat to see what's going crazy and causing this to happen. Another thing you can try for funsies is go to settings and search for mobile networks and/or enter a tmobile apn in manually. If you don't know how to do this it's ok. I really just need a logcat of wtf is going on when the modem is flashed.

Seems to be a common believe that a diff kernel is needed but I just don't buy that... I'm betting it's just the modem, MAYBE some libs/modules and possibly a few smali edits. Curse not being able to test this myself. :p

Something else I was thinking about. On the T-mobile Vibrant, the 850 band for AT&T edge was disabled by default. You had to go into the "secret" network menu to turn it on. I was kinda wondering if maybe that was the case here. That you need to go into the secret network menu to enable the 1700 band. Hmmmm....

EDIT: I found this. It's worth a shot.

#7465625*638*Code# = Disables Network lock

Also this might show what bands are enabled - Show network information: *#8999*638#

http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/16/psa-atandts-galaxy-note-does-not-support-aws-for-hspa/

In short, they are saying that the AT&T Note does NOT support the AWS 1700 band which means you will never get 3g/4g no matter how hard you try. So sad...

Does this mean I get the bounty for figuring out it's just not possible? :D *sarcasm*

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Whitehawkx:
If the hardware itself does not support the 1700 band then no matter what anyone does it will never support 3g/4g on tmobile's network. :(

I also noticed on AT&T's site the 1700 band is not listed as a supported spec. The hardware has to support the 1700 band for it to work.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Whitehawkx:
Yes but it's not the same, need aws 1700.

T-mobile is acquiring the 1900 band through the AT&T merger that fell through. WHEN that happens the Note will support 3g on T-mobile's network.

Unfortunately, this won't be everywhere. Just where t-mo feels the need to beef up their weak spots.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Snarksneeze:
So this is definitive? No matter the modem, build.prop, libs, this phone will never work on T-Mobile's 3G via the 1700 band?

-Edit 1-

BTW, T-Mobile has already purchased a chunk of spectrum in my area from AT&T. We have only been 3g for two weeks here, via T-Mobile. I don't think that changes anything.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Snarksneeze:
So it does support 1700Mhz, but not via AWS. From what I understand, this means the physical hardware will simply not support T-Mobile's current 3/4/H system.

However... T-Mobile has been buying up (renting up?) AT&T Spectrum since the merger is not going to happen. Once they have access to AT&T's 1900Mhz, we should be able to get back to 3G.

Of course, I don't plan to wait. My bounty still stands but I plan to call T-Mobile on the 15th and turn off that line. I'd rather be stuck with a tiered plan than be back to Edge.

Okay, so I finally got around to hitting that link up. Basically, they unlocked their note and popped in a T-Mobile SIM. Since they didn't see 4G pop up, they automatically assumed that it wouldn't work.

I think this takes us back to square 1. Will a modified modem work to get us going?

I've decided to do the logcat. I have to wait until at least midnight to ensure I don't miss anything from work, but I'll post my results after. FYI: I have an unlocked Note and a T-Mobile 4G SIM ready to go.
