Is there only one version of odin? I downloaded Odin3-v1.85 and I can't get it to work or do anything. Apologies. I am new to the software parts of phones
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cablegooru:
Yes that Odin will work... pull battery insert battery plug USB into PC open Odin hold both volume up and volume down then plug USB into phone wait about 10 secs then hit volume up button... Odin should put yellow box in Odin com section..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] coolerbean:
Just wondering because of your post: Is your phone rooted?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jamesd86:
If you happened to leave USB debugging checked just turn the phone on and wait for it to boot and then use adb to reboot into download mode.

If you don't have the sdk set up you can download it and then go wherever you install it to, open the tools folder and ctrl+right click mouse open cmd prompt here. Type adb devices to verify it sees your phone and if it does type adb reboot download. That will put your phone in download mode.

^^^^^ that is why I leave debugging enabled at all times. Gives you a failsafe should your screen take a crap on you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nthknd:
Just a thought and not sure if this will work but try using a mhl, toggle connect it to your tv then you can navigate through the system.

Nevermind if the touch screen is broken then you can really navigate.... Sorry
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tmxrr:
What about hooking the phone up to the computer and then using the SDK to take screen captures of the phone. That way you can at least see what screen is pulled up on the phone..

But again, is the phone rooted? Or is it stock?

For Future refrence,

next time some stupid retard throws your phone AT ALL. First give him a knuckle sandwich, then make him buy ya a new phone.

Personally, i would kicked the hell out of him in front of everyone, then kicked his ass every day until he bought me a new one. and that is NO lie. I dont deal with assholes like that.

Some kids, have the nerve i tell ya, toss a cell phone across the room.

....Please wait while you are getting your face kicked in for utter stupidity....

[Verizon Droid Charge] cnoevl21:
When i click on the mic all i get is "connection error" anyone else have this problem?
[Verizon Droid Charge] das7982:
Go into settings > applications > manage applications > go to all apps > find mic recorder > clear cache

Or

Boot into CWR and clear cache partition

Either one will fix it... the later might be easier
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] macked:
Ok so here's the problem, when I plug in the USB cable I don't get any drives mounted on my Windows 7 PC. It worked when I got it on release day, I have no idea what the issue is now. I'm running stock everything.

When I go to USB Mass Storage in the settings and hit Connect to storage PC it says "USB is connected remove the cable." When I remove the cable it does nothing obviously.

When I hit the button without a USB cable it says "Connect USB cable to use mass storage." Plug in the cable, does nothing.

Any idea?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] macked:
Reboot the phone you idiot!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] macked:
Hey it worked! Thanks!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] connordroid:
Thanks for the laugh :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
You can can also use Kies or another wifi file transfer app to remove the need for cables if you have a wifi set up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimtyson:
I had to read the thread twice because i couldn't figure out why you didn't lay into the jerk that called you an idiot. Then I saw that you were the jerk. Very funny.

Another option is Airdroid in the Market. Lets you connect without cables.

Glad you got it sorted out. Reboot the phone and\or the PC usually fixes a lot of issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] AllTheWay:
What you have to do is press connect as usb storage then plug the phone in. You can't have the phone plugged in and press the button to enable it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] macked:
Hey it's my old thread! Anyway I did it that way and any other way you could think of trying to get it to work. Then I remembered the second rule of troubleshooting (first being make sure its plugged in) reboot! And it worked fine after that.

Then for a chuckle I had to go mock myself.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fire_flex:
Hello,

Thanks for response.

Today I made an update to my phone with the software KDZ when I was in emergency mode for updating, i disconnected and never came to light in any way: recovery, emergency, I have tried everything and can not find the solution, I thank those who I can help!

The phone no power.

greeting
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fundoozzz:
Service centre is the only solution for u as of now... u had completely bricked your phone mate..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hsrbnr:
Yes, he is right service center is ultimate option!

Never disconnect phone if you are flashing or updating via LG Official updater, KDZ updater or LGDMP!!

Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] anotherloony:
Yes, But you need: software, hardware interface and some soldering skills. If phone doesnt boot in emergency mode this cannot be done via usb cable.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TonyBigs:
Hello,

Did Samsung ever fix the low level volume fluctuation problem through the headphone connection on the 7.0+? Listening to lower level music files at lower volumes resulted in the volume jumping up and down slightly. The problem occurs regardless of whatever music player app is used. The files play fine on the Samsung Galaxy 5.0 player and other devices.

Thanks!

Update: It's not fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
This thread is the only reference I could find to this issue anywhere. Is it documented more fully somewhere else? Is Samsung aware of it and planning to fix it? Any references or other help would be greatly appreciated.

I've had my 7.0 Plus for about a week, and yesterday was the first time I tried listening to some classical music favorites featuring very soft choral passages. I couldn't. The volume surges every couple of seconds during soft passages. It sounds as if some demented engineer thought it would be a good idea to add an automatic volume equalizer to make sure the music never gets too soft. No. Very bad idea.

Until I found this thread, I thought I had a defective device or was losing my hearing. I'm glad that neither is the case. Again, please post links to further info about the issue. TIA.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
I've had the same problem with 6210 from day one. Other than album art being screwed up, it's the only real annoying problem I've had with the box.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] redsmear:
The problem may be in the default player. I use poweramp and don't experience that
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
It's not just the default player. I've experienced it in the Rhapsody app too. Also see the OP, which says regardless of app and also strongly imples that the issue has been discussed before.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
I hear it using TuneIn Radio. Hoping for a fix with ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
UPDATE

I've found two earlier references to the issue:

A review on Amazon from last November (reviewer says he's notified Samsung)

A post by this thread's OP, also from November (like me, he thought it sounded like Automatic Gain Control; unlike me, he remembered the right name for that feature :) )

Again, any more references, especially from Samsung, would be appreciated.

ETA: I found one on the Samsung support page (search for the string "How can I stop the volume" and click on the text to open the answer). It was answered, not by Samsung but by an anonymous user, who said "Sorry charlie, but you've got a headphone jack with a malfunctioning sensor. Sorry!"

I suppose that's a plausible explanation, but against it is the Amazon reviewer, who said he had the same problem with two different units. And then there's me and the OP here.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
I installed Poweramp. Nice app, but it doesn't help with this problem at all.

To hear the problem you have to be playing music with sustained passages that are very soft. With most pop, rock, and jazz it won't be noticeable. That's probably why the issue isn't more widely reported.

Try this video in your YouTube app. If your Tab Plus is behaving like mine, you'll hear several volume surges during the first 20 seconds or so. ETA: Crap! I can't post outside links. Here's the last part of the YouTube URL, after the slash: watch?v=6-i1ESIRKdA.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
One more clue

And I found one more indirect clue in the Samsung Troubleshooting Guide under the heading GT-P6210 Volume Drops When Headphones Are Plugged In:

Obviously this proves nothing about the issue we're discussing, but it is suggestive because it tells us that something in the firmware is deliberately designed to mess with the headphone volume.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bittersound:
Aha, so it's not just me who noticed this "feature" then :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
For anyone who is experiencing this issue and wants to let Samsung know about it in one place, I've started a public thread on their Facebook support wall. You'll have to imagine the first part of the usual Facebook URL since I can't post links. Here's the last part, after the slash: samsungsupport/posts/10150588609036213
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
Nothing from Samsung Support on Facebook since yesterday morning. One other person has posted there (thanks, Mark, if you're reading this). It would be nice if a few others would chime in.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TonyBigs:
I'll chime back in. I'm glad somebody else has finally noticed! The problem also exists with the Verizon SCH-i810 (Tab 7.7) but, perhaps, to a lesser degree.

I strongly suspect the (Yamaha?) driver and/or its configuration -- see the original post from November that shows the (configuration?) files. I suspect that file may hold the key to the problem. Problem is, I have no idea what the numbers actually mean and didn't find any documentation for those numbers (data sheets, etc.). I did attempt at the time to tweak a few numbers using my "best guess" by comparing the entries for rx-speaker vs. rx-headphone vs. rx-headset. but no discernible effect was heard.

No prizes for guessing who was raising such a fuss in November.

The "Sorry Charlie" answer is incorrect and I flagged it as such.

UPDATE: I found the 7.0+ /etc/audio files and I have the 7.7 /etc/audio files. There are some differences in the numbers and the 7.7 audio files (LVVEFS) have some comments (!!!) in them so maybe I can track down pertinent parameters.

Anyone else have an opinion or another idea? Is this a waste of time?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
Thanks again to everyone who posted here. If you've been watching the Samsung wall on Facebook where I posted last week you've noticed that they haven't responded at all except to ask one simple question, which I answered immediately. Since then, crickets.

If you're experiencing this issue and you feel comfortable saying so in public, please add your comment to the post on Facebook. Maybe we can guilt them into responding. :rolleyes:

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
They just answered about 1/2 an hour ago. They provide a link and ask us to go to the Samsung Service Facebook page and fill out a support form. Might as well. Keep the pressure up on someone over there.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
Agreed. I just submitted their form with full details. We'll see whether they follow through.

A hint to anyone posting there: Samsung appears to be great at stalling by asking follow-up questions. Include as many pertinent details as possible in the initial post, such as model, wi-fi or data-enabled, serial number, firmware, streaming or stored music sources, which apps, etc., etc., and so forth.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
Well, at least they're responding, but I'm not sure it's helping. This morning they replied to my original Facebook post:

I've already checked with different headphones (not speakers; I've already told them several times that it's a headphones-only issue!), so I already know that the problem isn't due to one set of headphones.

This gives me zero confidence that they actually understand the issue. (Except that it's possible -- though in my view unlikely -- that it is a defective headphone jack.) I'm reluctant to send it in for service. The problem is subtle enough that someone lacking a trained musician's ear is likely to just say it's fixed and send it back. We already know that the fellow who mentioned this issue in his Amazon review got a second unit exhibiting the same defect.

Also, I have not heard from Samsung directly in response to submitting the official support form the other day, so I can't now tell whether or not this latest comment on the wall is coordinated with that other support request.

Does anyone have any advice? Has anyone here dealt successfully with Samsung support in the past, on any issue at all? How did you do it?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
I agree. I don't believe it's a headphone jack issue either. I'm going to wait until ICS comes out and then decide what to do if it's still an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TonyBigs:
I've tried adjusting some numbers in the .txt files -- no change yet. Maybe I'm adjusting the wrong file. Who knows?

I'm surprised there aren't more complaints. It's easy to identify. Headphones, earphones -- doesn't matter. The problem exists with Samsung's earphones. They can't run away from that one. Doesn't the 7.0+ come with four audio files? I can't recall if the problem could be reproduced with those files, because the problem needs periods of relative silence to get into the "AGC" mode. I think the Samsung support is in typical "denial mode". Problem? What problem? Let's go through all the permutations of user error or workaround before considering that there is a problem. It's a matter of problem ownership -- and Samsung isn't owning it.

The questions I would ask are: "Have you tried reproducing the problem?" "Do you know how to reproduce the problem?" "Who has the capability to reproduce the problem, if you can't".

Yes! Just found the Samsung music files, going to try to reproduce with all Samsung supplied software and equipment.

UPDATE: Reproduced the problem on Galaxy Tab 7.7 with all Samsung supplied files/software/equipment:

MATERIAL:

1. Samsung supplied "Music Player", no EQ

2. Samsung supplied music file "Silky whisper.mp3"

3. Samsung supplied earphones, white with button and mic (I think it's pretty generic to Samsung)

Steps:

1. Start Music Player.

2. Make certain volume is all the way down and the sound is muted (slash through speaker)

3. Press the volume up button once, twice (once to unmute and one step higher)

4. Play music file. Note how the piano cuts in and out throughout the song, especially during the opening of the instrumental.

I suspect that Samsung is going to hand this issue off to Yamaha. The constant in this matter is the Yamaha-sourced audio chip/driver/library/configuration/firmware.

Here are some files to compare from /etc/audio (I added the model to the name):
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Sun_Cat:
Agreed. That's why my first question to them on Facebook was "Are you aware of the problem?" No way will I send my GT7+ to them for service until they take that step.

I'll try your steps later today and see if I get the same result. Maybe we can gang up on them. :D

I have one additional datum since last week. I've tried to reproduce it on Bluetooth headphones, and the problem does not show up. It's only there with plugged-in headphones.

I suppose this could be interpreted as evidence slightly inclining toward the "defective headphone jack" theory. But I still don't think so. If anything, I think it could be related to the Self Aware Volume Ghost on the Galaxy Nexus, which Samsung apparently did acknowledge. Except the Nexus bug was much more obvious since the volume control indicator actually appeared on the screen and changed.

I've never had a phone with a locked bootloader so I have a question

If I edit/replaces apps in the /system without unlocking the bootloader, everything goes to hell right?
[Motorola Photon 4G] magui43212:
No you only need to be rooted to mess with system apps, but that doesn't mean you can't easily screw stuff up. Unlocking the bootloader is for flashing new rooms and kernels.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MimKoRn:
Since I couldn't find anything about this (maybe wrong keywords for google search, but I sincerely don't believe this is a frequent problem), I decided to post question here; at least you'll tell me there's nothing I

Since I disassemled my device to the core and assembled it again, the camera flash light is too harsh. Looking into it causes eye sore and it overheats in seconds. It felt sad at first but I coped with it (and I don't consider it an issue, you don't have to address these facts; they serve only as a side-info).

However, what bothers me much more, is that somehow the light managed to get out of sync when taking photographs. Now I lost the ability to take photos of documents. Even when there's enough light outside, when I don't turn off the camera flash, it makes the photo even darker and text illegible. It seems as if the flash came out too soon, or too late. I'd love to get this fixed somehow.

The question is, is there a way to calibrate this? Or a file/driver, where to modify some numbers to get this aligned? I know it sounds pretty naive, but I already lost hope that anything could be done and than realized that the xda-developers forum is still the last (and best) option.

Looking forward.

<edit> also I was just trying to make a video w/ the flash on and he usually won't survive such attempt for more then a few seconds. Same goes for using phone as light (but it can last for longer time). Interesting is, that after a few seconds the light gets a blue tinge. I think something like reducing the power that goes into it could be helpful in this manner, but I don't know if something like this is software-modifiable

Looks like you have a pre-release device that is usually given to carriers for testing. No, it is not developer-unlocked. All those z-applications at the end of your app list are used for tests.

Note that you might not be able to upgrade to future versions, unless you flash a new shipping ROM. Usually there are no official upgrade paths from mojobld versions.

now the big problem i am having is that while the dock will put the skyrocket into charging mode it will not pass the audio trough the docks :(

has anybody achieved this or knows how to make this work?

when i have it on speaker mode playing music and put it in the dock the music will stop playing via the speakers and actually come out of the headphone jack so i believe that is a software issue and not a hardware issue.

anyways i hope that someone can help me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scott14719:
Looks like the Infuse 4G mount? It works pretty good if it is. It can be used with a very slim case like the TPU, but it is very tight and the USB connector will not work while in a case. If it is the Infuse mount, it will charge the phone but the Audio will not pass through the USB. It has been discussed many times (you might want to do a search on the subject) but I don't think anyone has been able to get audio through the USB yet (though I think some have tried).
