So Im pretty sure my phone is toast. Having done this a couple times before, I thought I remembered the steps. Not only did I check the repartition box but I also selected the wrong file. Instead of hercules.tar I selected PIT, and a zip file from odin 1.85. The phone is 100% unresponsive to anything. If anybody out there knows of something I can try please help me. This really sucks!

On my previous Captivate I once thought I totally bricked it vs soft-bricked. But, I tried my method to get into download mode. screen stayed black but then odin started moving and the phone was saved.

I pulled battery. holding both volume keys, plugged in usb cable to computer, push in battery and released volume buttons.

Maybe you will get lucky like I did. Here's hopin.

How do you boot this phone into recovery mode. I tried the volume down/power button combo but I get to the warning screen with the up down option. same as before.

Hold volume up & down along with power. Release power button when Samsung logo appear but keep holding volume up and down.

Outstanding. It would've been nice to know that ODIN doesn't always keep the "rePartition" box unchecked and that I now have to sort out how to repair this problem. I had a success for clockworkmod but when I tried to move up and down the menu it just restarted recovery each time. Which is why I was flashing again. And the second time it (very f**king un-conveniently too I might add) it had repartition checked and bricked the phone. Well at least this time I didn't reset ODIN and am in download mode but still, I can't believe it did that. I didn't precheck the box and it wasn't checked the first time. Maybe they should put it on the other side of the GUI nest to the start button so it's not off in the periopherals where this thing can happen. I know my fault, just asking for a change to maybe be added to the GUI.:p

[EVO 4G General] Frogging101:
On my HTC evo 4G, running CM7, I am having a very irritating problem with hissing sounds. Whenever I do something that would make a sound play, I hear this hissing that will end a few seconds after the sound stops playing, and it will end with a pop.

All sounds play properly, but there's this constant level hissing whenever a sound is playing. It's like whenever the DAC or amp in the phone is turned on, there's hissing. The hissing is always the same volume whether the phone is on mute or at max volume.

It's so annoying. It used to be tolerable but I recently got new earbuds and it got worse (The new earbuds are higher quality too). It can be heard even from the phone's speaker, though it is very faint. But when I'm watching a video or listening to music with quiet parts, the hissing is bad enough to make watching or listening not enjoyable.

Is there any fix for this? I really hope it isn't a hardware problem.

Also, the hissing gets worse if I turn on bass boost and stuff in DSPmanager. I removed DSPManager to see if that would help. It didn't.
[EVO 4G General] Frogging101:

I need an answer to this, it really is enough to totally ruin the enjoyment of media on my phone.

[EVO 4G General] JayH1980:
Hardware issue... Probably the speaker or the audio controler

Jason
[EVO 4G General] Frogging101:
Well it happens with the internal speaker, and anything plugged into the headphone jack (Tried 2 sets of earbuds, it's tolerable on my old set but worse on my new earbuds).

So maybe it's the audio controller? I don't know... I hope there's a fix for this.
[EVO 4G General] JayH1980:
I would think that a repair would be a hardware repair and not software... If you have insurance I would use it because odds are it will be a replace claim.

Shouldn't get bubbles I don't get any when using mine everything fits flush with the phone
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
You could try a zagg screen protector or a chepo one works great if you have space or lil bubbles..
[HTC EVO 3D] TRW93:
When applying a screen protector, get something with a definite edge, and smooth all the bubbles out. if there are still bubbles after trying to smooth a few times, there is likely dust under it. Use a piece of tape to get the dust off the protector.

But VERY IMPORTANT is that you unlock the Lockscreen and start zune before opening toms xap installer or application deployment! If you dont do that, no xap installation method will work.

You have to:

- unlock your device (developer unlock is minimum)

- start Windows Phone Power Tools

- unlock screen (go to your live tiles screen)

- check if in connection drop down list "Windows Phone Device" is selected

Please help me I've wasted many hours with no result :(
[Optimus 7 General] zorzgeo:
1. "Unlock" phone through MFG

2. Install latest MS Windows Phone SDK

3. Install latest ZUNE

4. Connect phone with PC, ZUNE rise up automatically, wait for ZUNE to fully recognise phone,

5. In phone stiings set Lock Screen to Never and back to Start screen,

6. Run Application Deployment from MS folder previosly installed, as Target set Windos 7 Phone Device and for XAP click Browse to navigate to your wished .xap, click Deploy and wait to do job.

7. Voila, thats it and should work except something wrong with drivers or with WIN on PC.

Work extra fine on my E900 with WP 7.8 latest Update ;).

P.S. After all, put back Lock Screen to desired state.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kevincaja:
I bought a new android phone which is the Live with Walkman(WT19i) here in the Philippines, and I'm loving it, except for the battery life :)

Live with Walkman is known for its poor battery life(which i found here in xda forums), probably because of the crapware software installed in stock ROM and battery which is the EP500 rated at 3.7v 1200mAh. Some users, like me, have a battery capacity of 1160mAh which really suck(probably country/region specific), especially when running with the stock ROM from Sony. So I unlocked my bootloader flashed my kernel to Rage kernel v2.6, wipe all data and cache partitions and installed HYBROM v15 from CWM, so far so good. I installed No frills CPU Control but I'm having a hard time which CPU governor and I/O scheduler to choose. Some people say that I should choose SmartAssv2 and Noop, some say I should choose Conservative and Noop or SIO.

Installed Applications:

Angry Birds(RIO, Seasons, Space)

ASTRO File manager

AdFree

MapDroyd

Facebook(auto sync is OFF)

YouTube

Skype(auto sync is OFF)

oh, and BTW, I integrate these two apps via WinRAR which does not exist in HYBROM v15.

Google Maps

Google Search Widget

-Screen Brightness = 40%(I only set it to max when outdoors)

-Mobile Data network = OFF (using GSM only, I'm using WiFi for browsing, downloading and updating apps)

-AutoSync is off

-I only turn on WiFi when needed :)

No Frills CPU (My configuration):

Min:122Mhz

Max:1.024Ghz

Governor:SmartAssv2

I/O Scheduler:Noop

Apply on boot: checked

So my question is whats the best CPU Governor and I/O Scheduler combination for the Live with Walkman(assuming your using Rage kernel ang hybrom ROM) providing a balanced cpu performance and battery life for any casual user?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kira.Lawliet:
For your CPU config, I suggest increasing the minimum frequency to 320-480ish; because around that frequency it consumes more or less the same voltage. If you set it too low, you may end up using more power because your phone may struggle to process services (caused by low frequency). Reference here -it may be on another device forum but that's applicable on other phones-

IIRC smartassv2 will be defaulting to a low frequency when the phone's screen is off so I think it's good to use it, for your brightness it's ok but I use around 20-30% brightness when outdoors

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xachiel:
use either scary governor or ondemand and about the i/o bfq or sio.

buy a system tuner pro then config your startups and auto kill. mine is -1% / 4 hours deepsleep. min. 122Mhz - max. 1.5Ghz..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kevincaja:
walkman, and walkman button still works, and speakers are still loud and in stereo :)

and the bonus part, you get DSP manager, which enhances your sound and music experience further :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kevincaja:
autokill?? I thought killing apps and processes is bad and since killed apps will restart again and will consume more battery life :p

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] melander:
thanks for the reply sir,

can you please share the steps you did to install the kernel and rom???

im really interested in installing a custom rom on mine...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kevincaja:
First, download all the necessary files:

this thread contains all the necessary files to unlock your bootloader, at the same time flash a custom kernel that contains ClockWorkMod(CWM) and root.

they also include download for the stock kernel with CMW and root but no overclocking, extra cpu governors and I/O scheduler features:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1560613

if you want to overclock your phone, or improve battery life, download rage kernel:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1398910

then download hybrom v15:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1373435

well that's about it, be careful when flashing as you can easily brick your phone.

follow the instruction in the threads I've given to you.

You install custom ROMs via the ClockWorkMod, the only thing you flash via your computer is the kernel. In case your stuck in bootloop, you can always reflash to the stock ROM of sony ericsson.

Stock ROM for WT19i:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17122099/Sony Tools/WT19i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1254-1889.ftf

then flash it with flashtool or using the sofware on this thread.

NOTE:

-Rage kernel has a different way of entering in ClockWorkMod, turn your phone on. As it boots up, as soon you see the LED indicator turns blue or as soon as the boot logo brightens up, immediately press the home key to enter ClockWorkMod.

-in the stock kernel with CMW and root, the LED indicator is always off. Turn your phone on. Press the on-off key once or twice as soon as the b logo gets brighter, to enter in ClockWorkMod.
