[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p51d007:
Clean the USB port

Been fighting that with mine. A poster suggested a link and it had a photo of a dirty & clean port.

Along with that, I noticed a "greenish" corrosion that was shorting the right most set of pins. I used a stiff non metallic brush, after removing the battery and scrubbed it off, then hit it with blast of compressed air.

You really need a powerful loop or magnifying glass to see it clearly.

Here's what it looked like. I found a photo of a micro-usb port and painted in

the area where the junk was.

Also, various posts suggest that using a lint free cloth with alcohol to clean

it all out. Also, it might be a combination of dust, dirt, moisture getting into the port. Perhaps a rubber plug would help?

Similar problem here

I have a similar problem. The widget is not refreshed on a new day. However, I noticed that at about 8AM it will refreshed to the new day.

This is really an annoying issue...

In the past I was using the daily/weekly view and didn't notice this strange behavior. Did you tried to contact HTC support?
[HTC Desire S] gigaSproule:
Is this not like the month widget where you just leave it for a few seconds and out works?

I tried to avoid using HTC widgets when I was on stock as they are slow...

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chongns:
delete and wrong nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5

rename the good

nv_data.bin => .nv_data.bak

nv_data.bin.md5 => .nv_data.bak.md5

(must have a "." in front the nv_data files)

copy using root explorer to efs folder

change permission as rwx------

change owner to 1001 - radio

change group to 1001 - radio

efs folder permision should be rwxrwx--xx

efs folder Owner should be => radio

efs folder Group should be => system

and factory reset

Good luck

edit: root explorer have to set "show hidden files".

i went to a technician and they said they can rewrite imei but first they will flash it back. what do you think??? service center sucks i go there and they said they can't solved it Y_Y_Y_Y_Y_Y_Y_Y_Y they only update my i9003 to gingerbread 2.3.5 DXKP9
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Firstly please stop spamming all the threads. Now just go to the service centre and tell them kies screwed you up and you want a replacement if they can't fix it. If they don't buy it just try to use Google and find out how to restore. If not go to the technician.

man, calm down man. you using DXKP9?, where do you locate.

what is the meaning of flash it back?, it mean flash back to froyo?

show us what is inside your efs folder and do you have the nv_data.bin backup?

do your still having the file as below in you backup(the original file)

.nv_core.bak

.nv_core.bak.md5

.nv_data.bak

.nv_data.bak.md5

.nv_state

nv_data.bin

nv_data.bin.md5

forget about the file nv_data.bin & nv_data.bin.md5 in the phone, there are not the original.

or, do you want my help, although im not an expert.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] zej21:

Hey guys...

I'm just wondering if i'm the only person having this problem. Before the .15 update, when i recorded and used those stupid effects (make eyes big, face small...etc) it was recording fine. But today i was trying to shoot a video using the effect, and when i played the video it had a screen tear/flicker on the top of my screen. Can anyone check if they're having the same problem?

The screen has a \____/ kinda shape flickering on the top of the screen when i'm playing the videos.

Have you set it right? Have you enabled debugging in the phone?

You have to setup UDEV while the phone is connected and after setting it up,disconnect and reconnect. Use gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/11-android.rules and paste above code there. And as you may know,there are three modes,debug,normal,and recovery.

Here is my question, I'm looking for a really good tablet with great battery life and I wanted to get the Vibrant community's opinion as to which is the best.

Please refrain from posting about apple products I simply do not like apple as a company and refuse to give them my business.

I would appreciate it if in addition to your selection you could tell me your reason for feeling why its the best.

- Cheers
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
I picked up an Asus Transformer (OG-not the Prime) a few weeks ago at Best Buy for $399 (Bob Shute almost convinced me to get the Nook Color though). It was the 32gb on sale for the same price as the 16gb (so why not) + it has external, so i have 64+/-gb of storage. I had lurked in a bunch of forums checking out support, ROMs, rootable, "official" ICS and general attitude of the forum members.

When I got it out of the box it was running 3.1 and I had known that it had an OTA update waiting. Within 30mins of getting it, I had upgraded, Rooted and was on my way to being a tablet owner. It was real easy to do too. The battery life on 3.2.1 was really good. Granted I am not using it all day long but I was getting about 2-4 days out of it. Kids would play games, watch Netflix, I would surf and my wife would do her coupon spreadsheets (yes she is one of those ladies and we do have a stockpile).

Fast forward to the ICS update. We got the OTA update and for some reason there is an issue with the kernel and people are getting random reboots. I am not sure if it is just me knowing what I am doing from so many tweaks with this phone and past ones or I just got a good tablet, but I messed with the governors and it has been 3 weeks since upgrade and I haven't had one yet. Knowledge is Power. Felt you should be aware of that though. Battery life on ICS is outstanding. I get 4-6 days out of it easily. Might cut it down now that baseball spring training has started and I can stream live video to it.

Conclusion- A few things. The Transformer (tf101) is just as good as the Prime (tf201) and actually I think it is better b/c the Prime has wifi, GPS and other hardward issues, but its bootloader can be unlocked whereas the tf101 is still lock for now. Another things is that you have to remember that these are seconday devices to most people and some of the redundant questions you see are rediculous.

My suggestion is to lurk in the Acer, Transformer, Galaxy, Xoom forums and see what is going on in them. Plus there are a bunch of smaller tablets coming out soon with Tegra3, Quad-core, low price,...

HTH and let me know if you have any Q's and sorry for the long post.

what do you want to do with this tablet?

I know you said not to mention any apple products but...

seriously dude even the iPad 2 is better than any android tablet out right now. iPad (third generation) just killed everything else. I know you don't like apple as a company but the iPad is pretty much the tablet market, the only tablet one should be getting. You're going to regret it if you don't get an iPad...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shreddintyres:
Ill be using the tablet for school mostly. Ill have about 100 lbs of books that id rather not have to carry with me everywhere. Ill also be using the tablet for light gaming just to keep me entertained from time to time as well as serving to replace my laptop for day to day tasks. Granted i know not everything can be accomplished by a tablet so ill still have my laptop at my apartment but need something light and portable but capable so i was thinking tablet.

As far as no apple products, they seem to hate me, i touch one and they seem to break they dont function properly and im honestly not convinced that they are the best product on the market. Their Marketing department tries to convince you of that but i hardly agree. (i wont get into it i don't want this to turn into a flame thread) regardless thank you for your input.

Ive been looking alot at the Transformer and TF Prime as well as the 10.1 inch samsung variants, but since i have ICS running on my Vibrant id very much like to have it running on my Tablet, i intend to run stock for a while until stable versions of either CM9 or AOKP are released for the device since i will be using it in a more productive than leisurely role.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I used several different Android Honeycomb tablets, but gave up on all of them because I felt the software weren't advance enough for my purposes, so I got a Windows tablet instead. Then sold that and got the Galaxy Note (international version) which I think is the best consumer portable device made so far, since it acts as a phone and tablet, has the same resolution as the tablets (1280x800, and is even (much) faster than Tegra2, yet pocketable, has Wacom pen, can make phone calls and ultra fast GPS locking, awesome camera), although I didn't keep it since it doesn't support T-Mobile 3G.

Out of the Honeycomb tablets, I liked the Acer A500 and Toshiba Thrive most since it has fullsize USB connector, which works with flash drive and gamepads. I think the Asus Slider should be better since it has fullsize USB and keyboard as well, just a bit heavier. I do not feel tablets with Tegra2 is fast enough to handle 'higher' bitrates HD contents and MKV videos, although other purposes are fine, regular HD video should be okay. I also feel all Android tablets are overpriced for their present software features, unless at refurb price, if it were Ubuntu or some full fledged linux distro I'd be more interested. Which is why I think Windows 8 tablets will have some success, even though I'm not interested in Windows 8.

Hi Folks,

It would be great if you guys can share your battery stats (Not the diagnostics apps, hours (or days?) from battery saver). Our favorite blog, WPcentral, claims that they have tripled their battery life. I can say mine improved by a few hours.

I regularly got 1day 12 hours on my Venue Pro, but it it hard to get 24 hrs on the Lumia even after the update.

Update: I rolled back to the previous version (11500) as I wanted the official version. I got the official 12070 now. Now battery shows 1 day 16 hours.. just like my old Venue Pro. I recommend everyone who used cab update to roll back and install an official update as it started rolling out now.

To do this and keep your settings you must use a Zune pushed update (official way) or the cab method.

If you use the navifirm you cant restore backups from older versions which means you will hard reset your phone.
