Hhhmmm, I have awesome call quality though I use Blaze modem which may have some influence but doubtful. I know the DSP has been said to have issues possibly if you have made any adjusts there try turning it off maybe.

Interestingly same freeze in music effects though if I go back in it seems to work (have not log cat so dunno if once service fails of it is not just showing the setting and not doing anything but looking now.

I have had some apps freeze and need a restart like this xparent tap a talk though it feels like an app code issue more than a phone issue. Keep in mind if you restore apps or use some that have not had their code tweaked for ICS that could be it.

DataRouter( 751): DrReadUsbStatus returns false USB is offline

I get this on every rom iv used. I wouldn't be worried about it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
dunno since it is listed as an error it is definitely something (though you could be right, though if expected by OS should be an informational listing and not error in logs).

By your signature if using T989D with T989 Roms you may see more errors that may not break usage but still should not occur if everything is happy :)

I will try to look in to this tonight...

Someone takes a few days off and some folks assume the project is dead? Seriously?

I'll go tell the mods to put up a sticky for the devs that days off are unacceptable.

And people wonder why this device gets less development support considering how popular and powerful the device is. We need mods to just perma-ban tools like this to set an example and warning to other fools that this type of behavior is unacceptable.

Gots to reply to Seanteam...

Look dude some people have questions and yeah sometimes it may seem they want things yesterday, but dude it does at least show people are interested in work in this device and shows devs which devices if worked on will get community interaction.

I am not a deep coding Dev, but pretty strong Modder/Patcher and can say I am happy to hear when people like my work and want me around, but then again I don't take an elitist view on my technical abilities I volunteer to others in my spare time either.

If you can't just skip posts that don't have information you don't need you will never stop reading the boards.

If you don't accommodate everyone fairly here and expect everyone on the internet to be a secret tech guru then you will go insane and get replies such as this a lot.

Ooh and this is an awesome phone but Dev work was non-existent for some time (I think due to being TMobile phone not cause hardware lacks) more devs actually bought att version up front (att is bigger hence more subscribers). Now that I saw the COMMUNITY buy a couple big devs this version development has had a huge boost in last couple months.

alright, you got your attention now back to work for me.

@ RealPariah and to anyone else who has sent PMs I will respond to you soon...sorry again

Now, I need a favor...

One of the issues I've been investigating is Kies Air (I miss it much)

I recall there being a Keis Air update in the market back on the Stock GB Tmo rom

Can anybody with a stock based T-Mobile ROM that has the Kies Air updated in their market send me the APK?

It will be the one in /data/app, not /system/app

Thank you.

Been working on it for the past 10 hours.

I've given up on the smali/java hack-based solution. I believe that very soon it can be fixed once and for all...and at the core level. Right now I'm waiting for a lot of source code to download x_x so it may be a while. I'm compiling a new version of the actual library file used to read sensor data.

More details later.

just wondering if flashing roms in a daily basis will damage my phone or not?, its true what some say that the internal memory has certain amount of flashing cycles before it dies ?:confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prashanthme:
I hav flashed almost 100 times(probably more :P) nothing happened till today.. No one reported till today!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csifreeman:
IMO,

The internal memory can take several flash cycles before it malfunctions.

By Several i mean your phone buttons[power/volume/home] can get damaged[due to pressing(2-3 times) while flashing] before your memory dies :p

My flash count will be ~500 as of now

Can someone tell me what the internal memory is made of?

EEPROM?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charlie399:
No :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CallMeVentus:

No I don't care if you're anti-Apple.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KcLKcL:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InverseSandwich:
You could potentially exceed the maximum number of writes, but you will always be able to read it in most circumstances unless you get a massive magnet it or crush your phone :D

On the datasheets the write limit is generally below the actual limit anyway.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I guess the rom is EEP-ROM. Assuming you flash 1 rom per day(after doing wipe data and cache), it takes approximately about 3 years for any signs of data corruption to appear. Even when data corruption does begin to appear, you probably wont notice it for a long time. So its nothing to worry about unless you flash more than one rom per day everyday without fail :p

I think the correct term is really a flash memory (Flash EEPROM). at least i think that was the type used in S2 and others.

"Although flash memory is technically a type of EEPROM, the term "EEPROM" is generally used to refer specifically to non-flash EEPROM which is erasable in small blocks, typically bytes."

either way, i think samsung uses the SLC NAND flash who's life cycle is rated at 100k cycles

I would be so greatful if someone could help me, I think I have really messed up.

Anyways now my phone is just stuck saying Google. Anyone who can point me in the right direction of even a System image I can flash over top I would be so greatful.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Moleculor:
Ok. I'm a dumb newbie, but what happens if you pull the battery, put it back in, then hold down the Up/Down buttons and turn the phone on?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
Not a dumb newbie, checking if bootloader still works is a good idea :)

@OP: If you can get in the bootloader, your best bet would be unlocking, installing CWM and then flash a ROM through it.

You can also flash the stock ROM via the GNex toolkit.

Just read the guides and information here in the forums, it seems confusing at first but is really simple once you get used to it.

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avow:
Thank-you for your quick response. I have CWM installed and can get into the bootloader. the problem now seems to be I cant get the device to show up in windows I always get <waiting for device> when going to flash it. Any ideas? I have been searching the forums trying to find an answer but nothing so far seems to have worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Moleculor:
Another dumb newbie thing, but when you plug the phone in to the USB port on your computer, does your computer show the phone as having connected (ala the ADB driver in your Device Manager in Windows)?

If not, double check to make sure your ADB drivers are installed. I doubt they aren't, seeing as how you were flashing stuff earlier (from your computer, right?), but it's a wild guess anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avow:
Thanks to everyone for the advise. Yes I could see the drivers and they were working perfectly according to device manager. However I guess it was stuck outside of debug mode?

Anyways from the boot menu the program was able to detect it, flash 4.0.4 to the phone, and then I was able to install the canadian radio without issue (hence the reason why I did this in the first place, we are stuck on yakjuux with 4.0.1).

Thanks again to everyone, great learning experience. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
Sure thing!

Glad it worked :)

As a future reference, the "Boot Menu" is actually where you need to be for flashing via PC. The commands won't come through if you're in recovery.

Make sure to make an Android right now!

You enter CWM Recovery, go to backup and restore and then hit backup.

In case your phone ever messes up while you're not close to a computer, you can just boot into CWM and hit "restore", it's as easy as that.

I always have 2 recoveries on my phone just in case.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orangemilk:
Hello everyone, this is a troubleshooting request.

The problem: My Galaxy S2 data connection drops frequently after my first root

My Galaxy S2 was the first phone I rooted, and needless to say… I’ve learned a lot. After about 2 months of using a rooted kernel and a ROM from XDA developers, I’ve had a consistent problem I can’t solve on my own. I’ve gone through about 5-6 different ROM’s and probably 15-20 modems and the problem is always the same: my data connection dies frequently because I cannot use the proper APN settings. The connection indicator will simply disappear and in Settings > About Phone > Status, the service state will show “out of service”. It lasts about 30 seconds before I assume the connection resets and it comes back.

Why I think it happens: When I was researching prior to rooting, nothing anywhere ever mentioned APN’s. I assume the settings are pretty much automatic for most carriers? I don't think that’s the case for my carrier: DOCOMO PACIFIC. After rooting, I was able to make phone calls and text but my data didn’t work at all for days. I copied APN settings from 3 different friends with S2’s with no success. I even took it to a DOCOMO tech and had him check the APN settings and verified them as correct. Out of sheer frustration, I started leaving out random items in the APN settings and it began working (albeit poorly).

I am able to get a connection if I just put in “gcpos” as the APN and nothing else, but the connection drops frequently. These are the settings that I use:

Name: Docomo Pacific

APN: gcpos

MCC: 310 (automatic)

MNC: 470 (automatic)

The settings that I’m SUPPOSED to be using are:

Name: Docomo Pacific

APN: gcpos

Proxy: 209.4.229.82

Port: 9201

MMSC: ht tp://mmsc.guamcell.csky.us:6672/ (Had to break up prefix due to posting restrictions)

MMS Proxy: 209.4.229.82

MMS Port: 9201

MCC: 310

MNC: 470

APN Type: internet + mms

The problem is as soon as I put those settings in, data will not work at all. I can make phone calls and text, but anything internet won’t work. So what gives? Does anyone know why it does this?

I botched my ROM backup, so I cannot revert to the previous ROM/modem and obviously no tech will probably touch it because my warranty is void. Even using stock ROMs and stock modem still gives me the same problems. It’s usable in its current state, but the problem irritates me to no end. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattP79:
Silly question but have you asked your phone service provider to send the settings? Unless smartphones are radically different to non-smartphones they should support receiving Service Settings via SMS Text Message from your provider.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orangemilk:
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I did call them up and all they did was read back the settings I already had. I found a website that lists their alternate APN settings too, but still no dice...

I'm absolutely certain I'm using the correct APN settings because I've gotten the same settings from about 5 different sources and put them in about 30 times. The problem seems to be that the correct settings simply will not work.

Do you have CWM / Rom Manager installed?
