[Nexus S General] rasengan82:
So today I had a weird issue with my phone. I was not able to make calls or receive calls. When I was dialing a number I was getting the "Dialing" screen and nothing. The call would hang up automatically. I thought this was a Google Voice integration issue with Sprint so I disabled it. Still same issue, so I enabled adb and started checking the logcat. Nothing particularly suspicious in the log either. The whole issue started happening RIGHT AFTER a major shootout across the street between cops and some armed bank robbers. I was not able to place calls for more than 4 hours (1 out of 20 calls would work...)...and now finally all my calls are going through. I called Sprint and the CSR had no idea, he updated my Profile remotely (noticed my phone went to Profile update by itself). Anyways, I believe this is Sprint towers near my area getting JAMMED with calls about the whole shootout. 3G data was still working though. This is INSANE because what would have happened if I needed to call 911? i was not able to even send regular SMS...
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
It happens. Same reason phones are tied up after a major disaster. Networks are typically built to a capacity which accounts for the heaviest usage under normal conditions. Paying for excess capacity only needed a small fraction of a percentage of the time isn't cost effective. Of course, that's rarely consolation when you can't place a call in an emergency, but the economics make sense.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peteinchina:
SG2, bought in some shop in China, now live in Thailand, Revo HDv6, various kernels depending on my mood.

I've read about this problem in a few different forums, but not here - THE forum for android...

I was getting reboots after I turned the phone off (it won''t stay off!) After some research I decided it was some **** in the USB port so I gave it a good brushing and fixed the problem :)

But now it's back and the brush won't fix it :(

Evidently the SG2 is sensitive to shorts across the pins...

Now it won't even turn on unless I have it plugged in - I get some battery overheating warning at boot (with both batteries) even though it is obviously not overheated.

However, once I turn it on while (any) plug is in the port, it runs fine - plugged or unplugged.

OH!!! apart from crap battery life now, I lose 25-60% overnight, without any data, wi-fi or other activity.

I've done lots of wipes and reinstalls of different ROMs, kernels, wipe cache, battery stats etc but to no avail...

I guess it's time to bite the bullet and take it in to some Thai repair shop.... Hmmm. Dangerous...

Any stunning ideas that make me happy???

Maybe a cotton bud just moist (not wet) with isopropyl alcohol.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slow N Stupid:
this happened to me when i got my SGS2 usb port wet... and the problem is obviously hardware problem.. so the only 100% sure fix is replacing it... you have 2 choices here

first: buy off samsung official usb connector for SGS2 and replace it (video guide in youtube)

second: send it to repair shop/samsung retail seller to fix it.. and if i read it correctly and understand it correctly.. you cant get warranty of it because you bought it from china and is now in thailand right? so.... if you go to samsung retail seller it will cost minimum 30 euro (sorry i only know the price for europe) and depending on what they need to do it may increase to 150 euro

so... if you choose the second option.. be ready for high prices...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peteinchina:
Thanks! It gives me a ballpark figure and a solution. Yes, I'd decided it was hardware.

I'll try the IPA, then take it apart and take a look with a magnifying glass, might be a wee flaw I can scratch out between connectors... then, if I f*** it up, I can replace the port.

I can call them plans A, B, and C haha.

I found this program called unlockroot and it claims to root kindle fire 6.2.2

I know I could just use KFU or BurritoRoot but I'm just curious if anyone has

http://unlockroot.com/index.htm
[Kindle Fire General] fiddlefaddle:
You could try it but kfu will be easier... just look around the forums.. :cool:
[Kindle Fire General] BluesHawk:
I don't see the Kindle in the list of supported devices through that link you posted. Either way KFU is undoubtedly easier and you have the forums here for support should anything go wrong
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
Ok. I was just curious....
[Kindle Fire General] Webberoo:
I tried it out.

It doesn't seem to recognize the Kindle and it doesn't seem to work. Too bad, it looked very straight forward.
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
Ok. Thanks for trying. I'm just gonna use KFU now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RubenRybnik:
This is kind of based off another thread I started but the subject has changed a bit. First I'd like it if someone could break down for me how the AOKP filesystem is divided up( and maybe a lot of this goes for other builds as well ). But on our E4GT you have the root system, /sdcard, /emmc( This doesn't exist in non CM based ROMs from what I've seen ) and /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/emmc which are links( or link targets ) to the root directories of the same name.

Regarding those directories, when you look in Settings->Storage you see "Internal Storage" with 1.97gb, "Validity" with 11.49gb storage, and an "Issued On" heading which states whatever your micro sd card has. No idea why they call it "Validity, that screen is confusing to me in general.

- If I do "Erase USB Storage" will that do /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/emmc?

- "Unmount shared storage" will only unmount the /mnt/emmc correct?

- Most system things go on /mnt/sdcard ( Camera, Evernote settings, GoSMS and Syncr settings for isntance. ) I'd really like them to be on the external so I don't loose them during data/factory wipes, and generally so their safer from deletion over all. Is there anyway to change the external card to be /mnt/sdcard other than going in and trying to manually place a symbolic link in linux on the device?

- For some reason, why I plug in my phone now I only see one drive, which corresponds with /mnt/sdcard, I have no access to /mnt/emmc as a drive any longer. I've tried formatting the card via an SD Card adapter on my computer, I reflashed AOKP from scratch, and still the PC just will not give me access to it after I "Connect USB Storage" in the notification dropdown. This is what my other thread was about mainly, but split it off seeing as I had more in depth questions.

Thanks for any info you can provide, I love android, but there storage methodology seems a little odd, and this is coming from a Linux / Unix guy ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jasKaos:
very interested in this as well. I have AOKP as well and noticed my 32gb micro SD card wasn't showing properly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:

I use this a lot and as of recently now I'm only getting a reading for 3g. That suxx.. Can it be because of the LTE changes that's about to happen soon? None of my 4g phones are showing 4g data use :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slvrap1:
Still shows on my account
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Oh ok. Idk why mine is not showing. I tried looking at it yesterday and nothing. Come to check again and still nothing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slimpickins:
That is strange because mine is still showing 4G I suggest going to the nearest office and asking what is going on, or chatting with a rep and find out that way.

Hope you figure it out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
It finally came up. I guess the system was updating since my new cycle had just begun. It showed everything fine but my 4g usage was missing for two days. Thanks for the feedback guys ;)

Anyone else notice this bug is gone in ICS? i'm running Fenny's AOKP ROM and have done about 3-4 reboots with no crazy drops in battery levels.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zueda:
I just had a drop after rebooting cm9.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ashhong:
Were you under 30-40% battery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
how big was the drop?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
lol just rebooted again and lost a significant amount. There goes that theory, guess i was just lucky or something.

Mods can go ahead and close this thread, as it's useless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zueda:
60 something to 19.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dungeon47:
I've gotten this on everything since about 2.3.5. Charge for a bit and reboot and it should go back to what your battery really is at.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
It's intermittent whether it will happen.

Actually, the stock ICS kernels have crap that locks CPU speed to 800 MHz for the boot sequence - this is probably an ugly workaround for the battery reset issue, but increases boot time.

I've removed that crap from recent kernels.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
The issue in here is resolved. So, if you wonder how to connect phone's USB storages into PC, please check the update 3 section in below.

If you are a user of USB utilities, stay away from FC22.

I'm not sure if this is an intended directional change from Samsung or if this function is missed by mistakes, but on FC22, I do not see the Settings > More... > USB utilities. I saw it until FC18 and it's not in FC22.

So, if you use your internal or external sdcard thru this tool, this would be a reason why you stay away from this rom until it's fixed -> Not valid any more

Now I moved back to FC18 from FC22 because I'm a kind of heavy user of this tool because it's really faster than any other method whenever I transfer the data between sdcards and my pc.

Maybe my eyes are wrong but I tried to find this function from everywhere in the settings but couldn't find. If someone find this function, please direct me to the right place.

Tweaked Calk's FC18 Rom is working fine (almost no defects) except the way entering the ##debug# mode. I'm still don't know how I can get the 'lock code' on ICS version (not MSL code).

(attached screenshots: first - from fc22, second - from fc18)

Now I'm sitting back and waiting for next build....

[Update1]

I've applied Fc22 Kernel and modem upon Calk's Tweaked FC18. - USB Utilities is still there.

Next update would be - factory reset and clean install FC22. Will follow up shortly

[Update 2]

Because I factory-reset my phone, it's taking longer than before to update. I'll post the screen shot in few minutes but Samsung replaced the USB utilities to Kies via Wi-Fi.

I've seen that Samsung in Korea, they are upgrading customer's phone thru visiting customer center or via 'Kies via Wi-Fi'. Are they following the same steps in here?

Because I installed Stock FC22, I ran Calk's Bare Rom Converter and it includes the scripts removing Kies APKs. I think that's the reason why it's not showing Kies via Wi-Fi (default in Stock FC22 instead of USB Utilities).

[Update 3]

Thanks to Dchibro, mdsevol and kali323

I don't need to test it any more. On FC22, the way phone communicate with PC has been changed a little. Usb utilities on the settings is removed and replaced with Kies via Wi-Fi.

So, to make the PC recognize the phone's usb storages, go to Settings > {} Developer options > turn off USB debugging > connect your USB cable

Another way connecting USB storages to PC (big thanks to elliwigy)

I pull status bar down and click the USB notification then turn USB mode on and it connects to PC for file transfer..

Once USB cable is connected, PC will recognize your internal and external sdcard.

I think this way is better than before and it would be one of the reason why I'm moving forward.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
I'm on codename and flashed the fc22 kernel and modem.. no issues but I always plug it into PC to transfer stuff.. it loads right up..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Ok. Let me try to load fc22 kernel and modem on my current fc18 rom and check if it's still there. If it's there, then it's not the kernel or modem issue. I need to factory reset and reinstall the fc22 rom (I've already did that) and check again.

Anyone else?

Le me clarify.. I am on code name rom.. not the stock fc22.. I have the kernel from code name.. USB settings aren't in the same spot lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I'm updating my interim results at first post.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Does enabling USB debugging turn off MTP and make USB mass the default like it does on the GB ROM? I'm guessing no but I thought I'd ask.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdsevol:
The option isnt there on mine either, I am running stock FC22 with modem and kernal although when I connect my phone via usb it still gives me the option to connect mass usb storage. Is that what you are talking about?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kali323:
it does on FC22
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
I'm not sure I see what the problem is then, other than Samsung already handling MTP vs Mass USB horribly on their ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Problem solved. It's working like a charm and better than using USB Utilities.

I'll update my thread with this information.

Thank you guys!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
On codename I just plug it in and it has USB debugging and mass storage mode like on gb.. I pull status bar down and click the USB notification then turn USB mode on and it connects to PC for file transfer.. there is another option too..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
get codename.. problem solved lol.. has way more options than stock.. me I just plug it in! Didn't even need to install any d rivers and it just worked
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Actually, by default, the way USB storage works in FC22 hasn't changed, it still defaults to MTP mode and is as annoying as ever, plus they removed the USB Utilities option in menu->settings->more so you can't manually enable it anymore.

The reason you got the impression it changed is because Calk modified a property in /default.prop (in the kernel he bundles with FC22) which controls how the USB storage is configured, so if you used his modified kernel to install FC22, the USB mode will be changed from MTP mode to Mass Storage mode. Once you have USB Mass Storage mode configured, it will be stored persistently in your Android User Data, so should you change kernels in the future, to one which doesn't have the change Calk made, USB Mass Storage mode will remain. The only ways it would get reset if if you wiped your Android User Data AND switched to a kernel which didn't have USB Mass Storage mode enabled in /default.prop

I have added a solution to the ICS USB Mass Storage annoyance to the Auto Root package. This will allow you to manually choose USB Mass Storage Mode (ie GB USB Storage behavior) for theoretically any ICS release, though I only tested it for FC22. Use Option E (Extra Options) followed by "Enable ICS USB Mass Storage Mode". This option will be stored persistently in your Android User Data, so it only needs to be done once (or whenever you reset your Android User Data)

Full writeup is here (and also in the FAQ of the Auto Root sticky)

What happened to USB Storage in ICS, how do I get the old GB behavior back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
The problem is that we are seeing lots of build every daily basis but there's no additional information about the new build. Only the way we would know the changes is through our own test. In here, we are being used as kind of testers even we are donating our own time for free. If someone who provide the source to our forum, if they have any kind of basic ettiquette, please provide the basic information regarding the change also. That will save lots of our time and prevent us from misleading and posting wrong information. But that would be one of their intention though.

Personally I want to add my thanks to sfhub for his kind explanation about what's going on and what's happening.
