Had a safe day :D Some bloody hooligans were on the bus home, though... Goddamn idiots. Anyway, on the brighter side of life...

You got your phone working again, mate? I suggest you stick with your stock ROM until tomorrow, then I'll walk you through the ROM's I've used and that'll help you make your pick and I'll help you with installing them, as well.

The fact that it's midnight here and that I get up at 6 for classes tomorrow is the reason you will have to wait for me :(
[Defy General] FlashTec80:
Bloody hooligans should just go home and stay there :P

Yepp its working now but in a rush as i always is, its now running MS2Ginger 3.0, thought i´ll go that route till there is a proper ICS version of something out there :)

Thanks for all the help, with it i would for sure still be in pure panic mode :)

Know anything about overclocking the Defy+?
[Defy General] King_Rat:
SetVsel
[Defy General] FlashTec80:
Ok i´ll try that, how high is it possible to go to still be stable? :)
[Defy General] niksy+:
I'm glad you got to MS2G by yourself :D :D

I think the best way is to overclock in Recovery. You'll find the CPU menu when you open it and there you'll see 3 or 4 different settings. Every setting has a clock option and a vsel option. vsel sets the amount of electrical power that the CPU gets at a certain clock.

Best way to overclock would be to go step by step. Increase the highest clock setting by 50MHz, then reboot your phone and see if it works OK :) If it doesn't boot successfully or it hangs while you're using it - increase the vsel by 1. Then if it's stable, go on, another 50MHz+ and testing again...

Other than that, you can just set it to 1200MHz at once and increase the current vsel for that clock setting by 3-4, that would probably work as well :D

I have never overclocked mine, though :) Well, actually, the WIUI ROM come's with overclocked setting itself, it was at 1.1GHz, but it was slower than Pikachu at 1.1GHz :D So, overclocking doesn't help as much as a good ROM does :) At least that's my opinion.

P.S. CM9 (ICS) is wonderful :) But, you should wait for a couple more builds, while the things get even better. For me, CM9 and stock ROMs (including ms2ginger) are the best! :) You can always test, anyway :D I've come down to CM7 from CM9 and I'm truly sad :D

Hello everyone, my Defy+ stuck at Motorola boot animation. And I have the message below when Volume Up + Boot key :

My sbf is :

[Defy General] godbod:
That sbf is the only one to make at least my phone stuck in the boot loop.

The others just don't show me anything, I got a black screen.

Maybe the sbf isn't the good one ?

I have done a backup of my system before I used rsd lite. How can I restore it as it's not a sbf file but a directory with .img ... files ?
[Defy General] FlashTec80:
Good replies every1, i dont know if im doing anything wrong here.

I first installed SetVsel app and changed the values in there, then when running stabilitytest it said i had the value i had chaged to. Uninstalled the app and tried to change value directly in 2ndinit but now when running stabilitytest it sais i only have 1000Mhz, thou in 2ndinit it clearly sais that vsel4 is set to 1200, any idea?

Cheers and have a safe day every1 :)

Edit: "vsel sets the amount of electrical power that the CPU gets at a certain clock", so how high is it possible to push it before i see smoke coming out of my phone? :P
[Defy General] farsight73:
You need to enable overclock in 2ndinit or load all modules enabled for it to take effect of your changes..
[Defy General] FlashTec80:
Good post :)

Could someone with an non overclocked Defy+ make some runs in Quadrant Benchmark, i only made one run before i started changing things :)

Would also be fun to see some figures on an ordinary Defy :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brisk5181:
I have a question regarding tethering via wifi on my T989D.

I am using the Juggernaut v5.0 on my Telus T989D. It has wifi-sharing app built in. When I use this application to share my mobile internet with my PC, I get two different ip addresses. For example, use my PC's browser, I find my PC's ip address is 123.123.123.57, however my phone's IP address is 123.123.123.101. So my phone and my pc have different ip addresses.

Strange enough, my Samsung Vibrant (T959 from TMobile), is different. I use wifi tethering for root user app, and I find my PC and my phone (T959) share the same ip address.

Why they are different on my T989D?

The problem I am having right now is, tethering via T989D's built-in function is slow. Sometimes connection drops. However the tethering via my T959 is very reliable and fast.

Is there a way to disable built-in tethering on T989D and use the tethering for root user app on my T989D? I have tried to freeze the tether manager, but tethering for root user still has error in log and I cannot connect to it at all.

Please help, I want to fix my tethering problem with T989D.

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
think about it...

when you are WiFi tethering, your phone is acting as the router, and it provides its own IP to you

you don't get the Mobilicity IP on your laptop or whatever it's hooking up to your phone on WiFi
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brisk5181:
Sorry I don't get it.

Why my T989D and T959 act differently?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasnn:
Basically there are two ways of tethering your phone to your PC, (to allow the PC to access the internet through your phone's data connection). The first way is connect PC to the phone, and then to configure your PC to see the phone as the network adapter. This is the method used when you configure USB tethering and you connect the PC to the phone with a USB cable. In that case there will only be 1 IP address assigned, because the PC is using the phone as the network adapter. (Imagine the phone is just an ethernet adapter for the PC)

The second way is to connect your phone to your PC and then to configure the PC to access the phone as if it were a Wireless Access Point (WAP). This is the method used when you use Wi-Fi sharing, (called Portable Hotspot). It's called sharing because the phone can share access to its data connection through its Wi-Fi hardware, for up to 8 different PCs simultaneously. In order to do this the phone has to route data requests correctly between the connected computers. It does this by assigning itself 1 IP address, and then assigning each PC that's connected to it, a different IP address. This is similar to setting up a wireless router at home to share a single internet connection between multiple PCs.

Usually USB tethering results in 1 IP address for both phone (network adapter) and PC, and Wi-Fi sharing/tethering results in 1 IP address for the phone and another IP address for each connected PC. However, I suppose it's possible to use different Wi-Fi tethering software that connects the PC to the phone via Wi-Fi, using only 1 IP address for both phone and PC, like the USB tether method. This would mean you couldn't share the connection, but it may work faster, since the phone wouldn't need to do any routing.

If the android-wifi-tether app is what you refer to as "wifi tethering for root user app", it's worth it to see if it works on the T989. (I'd be curious if it works too). However, if you're using Juggernaut 5.0, you should be able to install android-wifi-tether, and it should work. You shouldn't actually have a Tethering manager app in your list of apps, I don't and I'm using 5.0. If you do, and freezing Tethering manager doesn't allow this app to work, then I would try freezing both the Wi-Fi sharing app and the Wi-Fi sharing manager app as well. If it still doesn't work I'd be tempted to reflash the Juggernaut 5.0 ROM, and then install the android-wifi-tether app again, and see if it works.

Good Luck..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brisk5181:
Thanks Jasnn, this really helped and I am now clear.

Yes, the application I am referring to was android-wifi-tether. It works flawlessly

on T959D. it is very slow on my T989D with Juggernaut 5.0/Telus modem.

If I reboot the phone and start tethering using android-wifi-tether, the application starts, but there is one error in log:

Setting ad-hoc mode: failed.

IP address are still different. My pc and phone has two different ipaddress.

I'd like to have the same ipaddress, also one thing bugs me is, the internet connection is not stable, the internet goes on and off. Lots of t989/D users have experienced this problem, there is no cure yet.

thanks

sgs4g SGH-T959V always reboot into download mode, even after successful oneclick

Hi, I used OneClick. Things seems to work. The flash was successful. If I do a reboot using the phone's power button or if I pull its battery, the phone always boot back into download mode, thus negating the flash and I have to start over. When the phone is in this state, I am not able to connect via adb or reboot into recovery mode.

One strange thing is if the reboot is done via 'adb reboot', via the OneClick process, or via the reboot option in recovery mode, it boots normally. So esstentially it means after a successful flash, the phone has to remain on forever, with an occasional adb reboot.

Is there anything I can do to restore this phone? Or as a consolation prize, force a normal restart on a one off basis via my computer somehow.

P.S. I'm new to the forum. Please let me know if this is not the right place to post this. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Pro tip: Open a new thread if you need to ask a question or need help. Don't "hi-jack" other threads. (considering that the original thread is from 2012)

But it's done...

Did you follow @lumin30's guide?

The phone is in download mode. The phone isn't being reset by adb, it's being reset by heimdall/odin. I think this sounds like a USB issue.

I've seen this problem a few times, and usually I found it was a bad cable or a bad USB port.

Also make sure the usb port is clean of any lint/objects/dirt.

I had a dell laptop once, where none of the usb ports worked with heimdall or odin. I tried the same one-click on my apple mac, and on another HP laptop. I found that I also had a bad cable. I replaced the cable and everything worked on my Mac and HP, but still nothing on my dell. Same setup - debian linux - on each laptop. The one-click looks like everything flashes, but if you pull the battery and turn it on, it's back at the download mode screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] teevoo:
Yes. Oh and I made several posts (not hijack :) ) regarding this issue elsewhere in the forum but got no response. One thing I forgot to mention in this version is that originally, the download mode on phone was triggered physically somehow. My uncle accidentally dropped the phone in water. He then blew it dry with a strong fan and must have turned it back on too early. Since then the phone's been in download mode.

I'm now wondering if there is a program that can do a reset like heimdall/odin without going through the whole reflashing process. Assuming the phone's memory components haven't been physically damage, at least this would mean I can restart the phone to normal mode quickly.

Ok, I'll try to find a different computer to do this with, although right now I'm thinking USB is not the case as I have successfully performed the same flash on a different sgs4g and it works just fine (the difference was that phone was never stuck in download mode to begin with). For the problem phone, I have tried a couple of ports and 2 different cables on my Mac. From what you just told me, perhaps the phone's usb port is the culprit.

Thanks for your reply, and thanks for all the programming work you've contributed to this forum :good:

Go to this guide. Get the bootloaders he provides. You'll use his PIT file and bootloader to get back to the download screen. Then flash that stock rom you were trying to flash previous, but use the PIT file you used from AdamOutlers guide. Should come back perfectly fine.

It requires an Ubuntu box.

I would do it if I don't have another choice.

No, ignore the Ubuntu part. Just download his GalaxyPlayer-Bootloader.zip. Skip the instructions for the Resurrector, it's not needed.
