[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hcyplr29:
Have you done any mods since, meaning no other flashes of other ics Roms after or in between. My problems all started after i flashed the cwm nandroid backup in another thread. The issues followed me until i did a darkside wipe then did the odin one click and all my issues went away. Im staying here for a while. Did my nandroid backup of this to always revert to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scott14719:
This is one of the known problems that sometimes occurs with the ICS leak and most things based on it. The problem is people that think they have the "know all" answer for a fix because something they did worked for them. Just because something works for you doesn't mean it will work for averyone! So it's ok to say "well, this is what worked for me...", but it IS NOT ok to tell others that it is an overall fix or that they did something wrong because it didn't work for them like it did you.

What I have found is that everytime you flash the ICS leak (or related) you might get different results, so if you really are interested in trying to get everything working, just keep flashing until it does. It might take several tries, but keep trying. This seems to be the case for many people, but I cannot promise it will work for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RCGreco:
I experienced similar results, first flash was lagged to insanity. however second flash fixed this and restored the home button funtion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BRIMS7ON3:
The only other thing i did after the first flash was a factory reset, which in my case fixed the home button issue. Not sure if it was freezing prior to that. I may try the cache thing but its not a burdensome enough issue to reflash again. too many workarounds to redo everything again..

Didn't realize this was so common when i posted this thread..thought it was random. Now if only someone could delete it...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Frogacuda:
Same here, though I haven't tried them all, I just went back to stock, manual debloat and a couple other mods and it's good enough for me, at least until we get real CM9 or AOSP roms.

I'm really not the type to wipe my phone and flash a new ROM twice a week. I'd rather just have something that's stable and functional, and only upgrade for big stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
I didnt have the shutdown problem the first time I installed the original ics leak install.

But I did after I restored a backup of it.

Didn't work for me on NexusMod ICS.

good review...I was planning to pick one up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] shaolin95:
Thanks for the reviews. I am looking for ones to go to the gym.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] fizzerd:
I actually own the same model. Owned the previous model up until i wore it out. It's a perfect set of bt headphones to work out with and it's discreet when wearing it around. It fairs well functionality-wise; haven't had an issue with my note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] pradeeprajr:
Thanks for the review.

I have just bought my Note2 and Plantronics 903+ and as i am a normal user (phone calls and music) it is really awesome.

But I have few issues with this and i need your confirmation

1) The Music forward and backward buttons doesn't change the music track? I have my corporate mail and hence have set up PIN lock in my phone. Is that dur to auto locking of phone with PIN or the Bluetooth buttons are not compatible with Samsung Note2?

2) While making calls outside, the noise cancellations is pretty good, but at times i hear some disturbing sound/noise in the call and i am pretty sure it is only through the Bluetooth i hear the noise.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] richlum:
The forward and back buttons work on my Note 2.

You have to hold them for a few seconds otherwise they just do volume up and down.

I'm using N7 player.

I notice that the headphones get A LOT of wind noise when outside. I notice it a lot when riding my bicycle. But, also when just walking.

I've since bought a pair of Jabra Halo 2 and use them most of the time now. They are more comfortable and sound better. Plus, I can connect them with a cord for zero latency.

I use the Plantronics if I'm going to be sweating a lot. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] kekken3:
Nice review and good advice for all potential buyers. However, I feel a clarification about BT latency is in place. Not all bluetooth headsets introduce so much lag. I'm an avid Motorola S10 user and altough some delay is present, it's nowhere near the 500ms OP estimated for the Plantronics set. In fact, even rhytm games like Tapsonic are still playable on the S10, which leads me to believe the delay is more around the 50ms mark. Huge, half-second lag seems to be more a sign of bad implementation by the manufacturer than limitation of the bluetooth standard. Let's not forget that Playstation 3's joypad uses BT technology, but it's implemented so well that tests found it to be practically lagless down to less then a frame (16ms@60fps) compared to wired connections. ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] richlum:
Is that low latency for media playback, or phone calls?

When you connect BT headphones to your phone (or PC) they make 2 connections. 1 for phone calls and 1 for media playback.

Both of my BT headphones have low latency for phone calls because they use a lot lower quality when in phone mode.

But both have high latency for media playback mode. (ie. Anything other than phone calls)

The amount of data required for the BT controllers is a lot less than that required for stereo audio.

My tf101 cannot enter recovery anymore

when i try to enter recovery ,

there is a " ! " on the robot , then tf101 reboot automatically

then freeze on the ASUS logo page

I cannot boot up the machine in normal mode too !

my tf101 is B70 version, someone help..thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
! with the Android guy is recovry, stock recovery.

instead of Vol up to get into revovery, wait till you get options to cold boot or wipe device.

try booting that way.

also what were uou doing when it gotvstuck at that screen?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] victor1144:
i tried cold boot , but it said cold booting up linux .. but no response

i tried wipe device , but it still freeze on ASUA screen too

yesterday, i try to root and install CWM via Prime V4.5

then the device comes this .....

Thanks ...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cavsoldier19d:
Never heard of that root utility before. You may not have used the right rooting utility for your device which can cause a brick situation. Also, are u sure u dont have the tf 101 and not thr tf prime? The vipermod utility found in the tf prime forum will root ics for both the 101 and prime. My suggestion is that u make sure u have the right device and search the right forum for brick recovery, unroot, or return to stock threads. They are usually found in the development sections.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cholywell:
viperMod PrimeTime 4.5 will only root the TF101 and shouldn't be used to install CWM. That's why it bricked.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] shadowjin:
i had an issue that was caused by lack of sleep last night that i might be able to help this guy out.he never used it to flash CWM.. he rooted it and never flashed from within the CWM app. The stock recovery doesn't have options for choosing files ect..

[Eee Pad Transformer General] shadowjin:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Killa357:
Sorry to dig up slightly old threads, but I have a question for you. I have a TF101 that I was trying to update to ICS. It is currently running 3.2 courtesy of the unbricking tool listed in this thread. I had to unstore it as it was bricked from a bad install. That was many moons ago. It won't show an updaate listed, so I decided to go with the manual route. I downloaded the appropriate update (my device lists WW version) loaded it on an SD card had the install prompt come up and rebooted to install... For a split second it shows the android with the gears like it is installing the update and then shows the android with a triangle and exclamation mark. After that, nothing. I have to reboot to get it off that screen. Upon booting, I get a message saying system update failed (2) unknown error. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Goatshocker:
If Im not mistaken, the zip file you download (I guess from asus?) contains another zip.

Thats the zip you should place on your SD card, did you do that?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Also try renaming that zip to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip (the one extracted)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Killa357:
I already had the zip extracted, and renaming didn't do anything.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Are you rooted? Did you remove any system apps?

Another thing to try is on your micro sd card, make a folder name ASUS and inside that folder another folder call Update, inside the Update folder put the extracted zip file (don't rename). Turn off TF and turn it back on, see if it will detect the update file.

If that fail, you did mentioned you use the unbricking tool, use that NVFlash to flash a compatible ICS ROM
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Killa357:
It isn't rooted anymore since I ran the unbricking tool, and no system files were modified. Placing it in Asus>Update folder didn't work. I may end up having to really do things manually...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
You don't need to be root to use NVFlash.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Killa357:
Just when with a slightly older version of the update and it worked. There may be something wrong with the file Asus has hosted.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oisindubh:
Hi

I have a slightly different problem. I have rooted my B60 serial number, it has the ICS from ASUS on it and it boots fine, its rooted and it works. Now the problem is I thought lets try a clockwork mod and play with custom roms.

So I set my win 7 up to adb etc, and pressed power button volume button - and off to recovery I went...

but all I got was a little green android on its back chest open and an exclamtion mark. No adb fastboot devices command.

I seem not to have a recovery nor a way of forcing a custom recovery.

Should I NV flash or just be happy the tab works and leave well alone?

Any other answers since a lack of recovery may come back to haunt me sooner or later.

I also tried the power button vol uyp for 7 secs and nothing happens I can get to the cold boot erase data option on power down, don't want to do that yet since Im not sure what data gets erased and I may have a totally non working tab.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Use RecoveryInstaller to install cwm recovery
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oisindubh:
Use RecoveryInstaller to install cwm recovery

This is my problem I can't get recovery - nor can I get adb to see the device. It shows as a hard drive/storage device but not in adb.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cholywell:
Recovery Installer is an APK so as long as Android OS boots you should be able to run it. It does not need CWM or ADB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supernet2ec2:
This is my first time trying to ask help on the forums, considering i've never run across a issue of this magnitude with my HTC Evo 4g before. So please do try to help me out if its in the wrong thread, etc..

Anywho onto the problem

im not sure how to classify my problem

I have a htc evo 4g rooted, Via revolutionary method, im not sure if this plays a part in causing my htc evo 4g to reboot randomly every 1-5minutes.

This problem only comes up when i flash any other rom on my device. I first tried flashing Fresh Evo 4.3.3and after 1-5 minutes of use my phone goes into a reboot mode (when i attempt to download anything through market place, or heck i leave the phone idle).

I had also tried flashing the MikGinger - Re-Eng GB Sense (3/9/2012)

I did wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

and also wipe dalvik cache 3x before each rom install.

This definitely didnt help what so ever. What my issue is, is that the stock rom (root enabled) android 2.3.3 functions perfectly fine but every other rom i attempt to flash works to the extent of 1-5 minutes idle or not. It forces a reboot. Oh and the kernel used on the android 2.3.3 rom is freedom-v0.8.5-UNIVERSAL-signed.zip Its the only kernel that runs stably on my htc evo 4g, enabling tethering, and full scale rooting, with semi stable functionality

Heres the current stock recovery menu version when i hold down Power and +volume

i also have clockworkmod Recovery v5.0.2.2 installed.

*Notes*

I always make nandroid backups, and i keep multiple ones backed up on the pc and phone for just incase measures like this one.

Im unable to diagnose what exactly my phones malfunction is so anyone who can provide useful info on how to diagnose the problem please do give me some advice, as everything else i've tried so far has failed (flashing, unrooting, re-rooting revolutionary method).

I'd also appreciate any advice that doesn't point me towards unrooting again and returning my device (as this is the 2nd htc evo 4g i have gone through, and the sprint repair center techs are idiots as far as im concerned. Their replacement htc evo's come shipped out refurbed and updated hboot which is harder to root and the stories go on and on.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Try switching to Amon Ra recovery. You can use the original version - latest version is 2.3, or use the Amon Ra style recovery, I believe that the latest version is 3.11. Flash one of those as PC36IMG.zip via hboot.

From there, wipe everything except the SD card and battery stats, then flash whichever rom you want. Don't flash a kernel, just let it boot up and sit for at least five minutes. Then flash whatever mods you want to flash.

Hopefully it's just that things aren't being wiped properly - CWM is known for this on the Evo. Wiping system and boot via Amon Ra will hopefully get you on the right track.

If not, Evos can have a reboot issue that requires a replacement. Unfortunately if it doesn't do it on the stock rom then reproducible the problem for Sprint may be difficult. Hopefully it won't come to that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I'm getting ready to head to work, but I just wanted to let you know to NOT restore a wimax backup from one phone to another. Toss it, it has no use now.

Amon Ra is in the Evo Development section. If I have time later tonight at work I'll post the link, but for now I gotta run. I will check back in with you though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supernet2ec2:
Do you mean install this version of Amon Ra? Just to clarify Amon Ra and CWM have their own ways of making a full backup, and i cannot just restore a backup made with CWM via Amon Ra, or can i? Im new to using Amon Ra, as i never trusted it much (to worried it may cause more harm than good, as im more use to using CWM)

Edited:

Yep i tried Amon Ra, it didnt work. I tried reflashing Fresh 4.3.3 2x and it ended it the same 1-5minute idle or not before reboot failure, same with MikGinger - Re-Eng GB Sense (3/9/2012). Nothing works but the stock roms with SU added in. I tried with my android 2.3.3 backup, and android 2.3.2. It seems my phone is incapable of working on android 4.3.3 but it works on all previous builds. It makes no sense to me though why it is like this, anyone think they can explain as to whats going on exactly with my phone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onelovekir:
I think it might be that you needed to update your radio and that fixed some things, but also I notice that your HBOOT version is not the right version. that version is only used to downgrade so you can gain s-off. use the hboots in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715485

Invitation Plugin

Check if Invitation Plugin application can solve your issue. It opens ics invites in default calendar where you can accept/decline event.

You can get this app on Google Play:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleansoft.invitationplugin

For it to work you need to enable 'Automatically add invitations to my calendar' setting in Google Calendar

It requires Android 4.0+ (Ice Cream Sandwich)

If it's still at 15 % it shouldnt even have started flashing ;) U are lucky so to say :)

Just pull out USB and battery, wait a few seconds and restart. Then try to install the latest drivers, maybe run it as admin or another PC if available.

If it's stuck in bootloop, try emergency recovery in B2C tool (LG update tool), or read in my noob how to, how to unbrick devices.

My old phone had a car mode that kept the screen on dim and unlocked. It was real handy for stuff like pandora. I think android has pulled it since 2.2 but im also interested in something like this for ics
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Actually this still works, first figure out hoe to launch car mode from that vlingo app or download a car mode launcher app. Next download an app called car dock settings by ig88 and uncheck all the options except disable screen timeout. Now whenever the phone is in car mode after 30 seconds or whatever it will just dim but not lock. There must be a better way though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
You know most phones have had this option in the apps development settings to have screen always on when charging. It would eventually dim but never time out or turn off. I believe it's disabled on our phones due to that it uses an amoled screen. Leaving amoled screens on for long periods of time with a static image will cause the image to be burnt onto the screen. You can try searching the market for screen timeout for apps that will allow this and I believe there were some roms that allowed longer screen time out time and also the development option of screen always on, but just be careful that it will have a negative impact on the life of your screen.
