[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianZephyr:
Hello XDA,

Ever since I updated my rooted Captivate to 2.3 last month, I have been having a few weird problems.

The first problem is that my phone has a weird refresh issue. Basically, sometimes, when switching apps, the homescreen (launcher pro) and other running apps don't retain their display, icons, status, or information. For example, sometimes when pressing the home key, the app minimizes and the home icons all have to reappear and refresh, taking up to 5 seconds. Another example is when using task switcher to switch to and from Reddit is Fun, the program must reload whatever page it was on instead of just jumping back to it.

This gets very frustrating when dealing with anything that needs to stay idle such as web browsers and certain games. It's as if 2.3 is closing the programs and then relaunching instead of retaining them in memory, but it's not consistent.

The other perhaps more frustrating problem is that the speaker does not work all the time. The phone switches to headphone mode and cuts out all the sound. Smacking the top of the phone sometimes makes it come back. Headphones always work, but this is problematic for me since I use my phone as an alarm. I've tried plugging in phones repeatedly, battery pulls, and made sure all volume is up, to no avail.

Thank you,

Brian

RE: speaker failed

Brian, I'm actually in the same boat as you.

To fix the speaker issue (in order to get my alarms back) I've had to remove the back cover and apply a good press down on the simcard, and speaker itself. this has brought back the audio for me.

I've had the phone for 2 years though, so not sure if this is the issue/fix you need. But worth a try.

What do you want the file to do? Are you making an application? Are you modifying an existing appliction? Are you theming?

An .apk file is just a file that has an .apk extension. How to make it all depends on what you want it to do.

[HTC Desire S] ScyBy:
Yes, this old chestnut.

I realise that this problem is as old as Android itself, but it actually appears to be a bunch of different problems that manifest with the same symptom. I've tried all of the solutions I can find, and none of them seem to work.

I have an Orange UK branded Desire S that I recently acquired second-hand off eBay. To begin with, everything worked fine, but the phone hadn't been updated in a while so I applied all the OTA updates (3 in total), one after the other. After the first two it was also working fine, but after the third update it stopped connecting to the Orange network.

When I attempt to connect to the Orange network manually, I get “Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network”. When I try the same SIM in another phone, it works fine. I unlocked the phone using a code and tried a Vodafone SIM, but that didn't work either. I've tried removing the battery overnight, no luck. I searched a IMEI database to see if it was blocked, and it isn't. I've tried repeatedly switching airplane mode on/off, which doesn't help. I've tried a hard reset, through the phone menu and also via the boot menu, without success.

When I type *#*#4636#*#* to enter the service menu, I can see that the phone is receiving a signal, so the antenna's working OK.

Now here comes the odd part. When I try to change the wireless band to 'WCDMA Only', it refuses to change and stays put on 'WCDMA/GSM' mode. It doesn't matter if I use the service menu or go through the 'Mobile Networks' settings, it still refuses to change.

I'm open to the concept of flashing a custom ROM, but I don't want to invalidate any warranty I may have unless that's the only option. I'd like to try flashing an RUU, but I can't find a suitable one. The only Orange ROM in this post appears to be French language:

Hi,

I'm having the exact same issue with a HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile) on stock ICS.

I bought this second hand phone and bring it back to Venezuela. The phone worked swell with local carriers but suddenly lost signal and got the infamous “Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network” message.

I've tried every solution posted on the net with no results, leaving rooting as the last resort.

So, before I begin rooting my phone I just wanted to ask if you found any solution to this. :fingers-crossed:

Any help would be much appreciated! :good:
[HTC Desire S] FDM-X:
So,

I've rooted my phone. used HTCdev, juopunutbear, clockworkmod, installed Superuser and got super CID. Also, I called my carrier and checked that my IMEI was not blacklisted (just to be sure).

Messing around with the hboot I found something that I'm not quite sure what it means, in the SIMLOCK menu I found this message:

FAT32 init OK

Open MCCMNC file fail

Open CID file fail

Process done, reboot device?

<vol up> Yes

I've changed the CID to the original stock and got the same message. I don't know what it means and if it is related to my problem. I'm still using the stock rom (OTA ICS 4.0.3 T-MOBILE) planning to install OrDroid 9.0.0.

I really need some guidance over here. :crying:
[HTC Desire S] Caelen:
Hi

I occure almost the same problem with my HTC sensation XE

did you manega to solve it?
[HTC Desire S] FDM-X:
Sorry to hear that. I'm still stuck with it.

I've flashed Ordroid 9.0 and the same error appears everytime I try to get signal from any carrier.

Someone told me that I should try flashing the radios or change my IMEI but I really don't know how to do it and I'm afraid I could permanently damage my phone.

Still waiting for fresh ideas to try.
[HTC Desire S] FDM-X:
Good news! (at least for me)

After I've tried almost all to solve the issue I took the phone to my carrier to get my sim card changed. they told me that someone has reported my phone as stolen in my previous carrier. So I went to the other carrier with my proof of purchase and they unblocked my phone IMEI right away.

If by any Chance you're having this same issue make your phone checked by your carrier for any kind of locks before messing with your phone.

Hope my experience will help any of you.

I've noticed anytime I Undervolt by atleast 50-100mv I get not well battery life as if I'm on a stock rom and setcpu profile the mhz only I get better battery life, I went from Undervolting 100mv and dropping 1% every 5-10 mins to now only every hour off a regular stock and only setting changed is stock I can't Undervolt so that's disabled but mhz in profile change is the same.. Why is that?

Btw this was with gunslingers 1.4.1 kernel vs blazer roms el29 stock kernel

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ezsoulja:
bump..........
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TeamERA:
I dont know about that kernel, but UVing can actually cause the cpu to get locked in a process, which will cause the battery to drop fast, and may produce more heat then normal...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ezsoulja:
Well that would make sense because it feels as if that was it, cause i would UV at -100 MV.. i felt 50 wasnt enough...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bean:
The problem with undervolting is that every chip is not the same and cannot function at the same voltage. The better the wafer the lower the voltage it can run. The chip manuf sets spec on core voltage so that even the lowest passable QC chip will function. Does that mean most chips will work error free on -50mv? Probably, -100? Doubtful.

Sure lower voltage uses less battery, but if the chip produces errors it can corrupt tasks and cause system hangups and errors, which also eats up more CPU. Laws of diminishing return and such.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohnish.killer:
I decided to root my desire HD today,

I was on firmware 3.xx with sense 3 ... Stock Gingerbread.

I successfully downgraded to 1.24.405.1 with the help of RUU

then i managed to root my device following the wiki.cyanogenmod tutorial.

Booted up with the respective android 2.2 successfully even after the root.

Checked root access via Root checker Basic , it said i had correct root access.

How ever , after flashing the clockwork recovery mode , My cell phone has NOT been able to *reboot* properly

i.e when i switch it off , it does not give any response without me taking out the battery and putting it back again .

When i try to go into bootloader/recovery mode , it just gives me a blank black screen.

Please tell me what to do in such a situation , i tried re-running the same RUU , but it gave me an error.

Please forgive me if i have created a re-post.. understand that my situation right now isn't the best.:( :( :(

PLease advice me as to what i should do , i wish to flash CM 7.1 on it, or at least return back to proper stock as soon as possible .

P.S the cell works fine right now , after i have removed the battery & re inserted. It however does not reboot.

Please help me as soon as possible !

Do you mean you tried rebooting with holding down the volumeDown button and then pressing the power button?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohnish.killer:
When i shut down the DHD .. & press volume down + power, it did now go into clockworkMod.. instead it booted up fine .. into android 2.2

This probably happened because i deleted the rom manager before..i thought deleting it work also remove clockworkmod's unsuccessful recovery flash..!my bad

Also ,I wanted to ask, is it because of the buggy flash of clockworkmod recovery, that my phone does not boot up when i try to *reboot*...

Anyways, i tried the volume down & power button again , & it goes into the HTC bootloader/recovery.. which has the options of fastboot,etc .. Not the clockworkmod recovery,even though i have it installed(5.0.2.0) via rom manager

Sorry for such a long post =(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottymeuk:
It does seem like you need to reinstall recovery.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winsettr:
This is a very good idea, you can do so through ROM Manager. If that doesn't fix your problem, try reinstalling ROM from clockwork - don't use ROM Manager to flash ROMs.

Thank you for your kind suggestions,

I finally have a working clockworkMod Recovery,

I have to boot into bootloader,then recovery.

So right now i have backed up my ROM from clockworkMod recovery, and now preparing myself to install CM 7.1 from recovery menu itself.(after data-wipe etc)

I am safe right ? I have successfully backed up the phone(ROM) 2 times from clockwork mod recovery.

So now I can go ahead and flash CM 7.1 right ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohnish.killer:
OH MY GOD !!!!

Now i know what the problem is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i flashed cm 7.1 successfully , still the reboot issue !

i returned to stock successfully by using the same RUU in fastboot mode... & amazingly .. SAME REBOOT ISSUE !

So now ive analysed , its the freaking wrong RUU version for my Indian desire HD

that is at fault !!!!! :@

So now , can any1 help me find a exploitable version ruu , so that I can flash to that version and start the rooting process again ??

If not Indian version , am i safe to put the 1.32.405.6 version RUU ??
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottymeuk:
Did you reinstall CWM by the way?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohnish.killer:
No i did not re-root + reinstall cm again !

Its getting frustrating now.... its Still not rebooting...

I will put indian RUU for download if i find ... or that other version soon ...which will work in indian versions too
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottymeuk:
I honestly dont think it has anything to do with the rom. Just reinstall recovery either through Rom Manager or using the link i gave to you earlier.

Solved ! =)

Downloaded proper version RUU..flashed via fastboot... solved reboot issue!

Then rooted again and put cyanogenmod 7.1

Hi, I've a Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100G.

It is rooted with kernel superatoms v3.0 XXLA1 with the Odin process.

The Binary Count is 3 and it has CWM mode.

It is in warranty period in today's date

Now, I want to replace it with I9100 as it has a bad compatibility of apps. But they say that the warranty is voided when you root your phone. Also, the Binary Count must be 0 in order to give it for repair or replacement.

Now, the question is - in simple words - I want to make it as new as it was before unpacking. I think I have to unroot it and all.

So, the request is to tell me the steps to make it a new I9100G so that I'd have no problem using the warranty.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] beestee:
Just avoid ICS until it is official. Then give a little time for custom ROMs to pop up based on the official version. You might even consider, as hard as it may be, not updating to the official ICS directly after it shows up. Give those with warranties enough time to try it out first and report stability.

You can always consider getting a 3rd party insurance plan from Squaretrade or Ensquared. Some of the forum members with International Notes on here have either of those insurance plans. I'm looking into getting it myself (1 year plan) when I receive my Note from the 1saleaday.com promotion. Still hasn't shipped out as of the time of this posting :( . I figure 1 year insurance would be OK since I'm putting the phone on Straight Talk prepaid (thus saving roughly $50/month) instead of getting on AT&T's plan, which comes out to saving $600 in one year. After one year of insurance the phone breaks, dies, etc., the money I saved by going prepaid, I can use it to buy the same phone (can probably get a used Note at a cheap price after a year) or another phone, and by then the Galaxy Note 2 should be out.
