[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knock Knock....:
guys I have tried so so many ICS roms OFFICIAL and UNOFFICIAL. and still this problem persists.

the screen will lock up and display a bunch of lines and either purple, green, blue, or red. in this state the phone is totally unresponsive and requires a long press of the power button or battery to be pulled.

the only ROMS it does

not

do it with is GB ROMS. any ICS ROM will cause this to happen and I really would love an answer?

sometimes it will happen after a few hours. sometime it will happen 3 times in a matter of minutes.

I have F/R before every rom install and also wiped th CACHE AND DALVIK everytime.

attached is a photo.

I am currently on CM9 latest nightlys

( I know it is not rock solid ROM but so far it has been the least frequent with this issue).

PLEASE HELP!!

Hi I think your screen is going to die.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knock Knock....:
honestly i dont think its that. it NEVER does it on ANY GB ROM. its flawless on the GB roms. its only when i flash a ICS ROM it does this...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSniperFan:
The point is that you can't really tell if it's no problem on gingerbread, because it happens in random intervals. Maybe on gingerbread you were just lucky.

Anyway, this is not normal.

Before your phone really dies, I'd install a stock gingerbread rom on it and update to Ice Cream Sandwich through kies.

If it happens on an original Samsung ROM, return it.

You don't want such a problem after you've lost warranty.

Maybe it'll become even worse in future, so better get a replacement.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Logic says that a bad flash .

possible a full wipe of the phone would solve the problem and i mean full format .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knock Knock....:
so how do i do a FULL format??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tangent5:
well, if your goin from a GB stock firmware, on your rooted phone download titanium backup, and backup all apps. The download mybackup, and backup all your contacts and the like (NOT system settings if you are goin from GB to ICS) and then reboot to recovery. flash the rom and gapps, wipe dalvik, cache AND YOU MUST restore to factory defaults/format or whatever. that is almost alwasy a must!

Then retore contacts/apps with titanium AND mybackup

This should work, unless of course it is a hardware problem, then i reckon you should invest in a $2 dollar usb jig, reboot to dl mode, and plug in ya jig. Thatl reset the custom counter, undo your root and pretty much give you back your warranty.

Hope this helps :)

Tangent5

EDIT: This always works for me, the main issue is just reinstalling the apps with the free titanium backup, and MAKE SURE each restore (for both mybackup and titanium) is NOT restoring data when going from GB to ICS or vice versa.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
try with these wipes/format :

1) wipe data factory reset

2) Wipe Cache

3) Wipe dalvik

3) Mounts and storage / format system

then install the Rom zip file
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Format cache, data, system, & sd card in CWRecovery. Then flash whatever rom you want with Odin. Pretty sure that's what JJE was referring to.

[Motorola Droid 3] meccgn:
I got me a DROID 3 Verizon branded ... just wanted to give an updated on how I did make the data connection run because it really was a pain in the a.... :-)

- unlocked the Mobile by a code being send by http://simlock24.pl ... probably other will work as well!

- Rooted the device installed root browser (Android play market) to manage files on Droid 3

- I updated the Verizon to the lates version.

- downloaded Maverick 3.5 here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/maverick-rom-d3/200510-maverick-rom-v3-5-droid-3-a.html

- installed safestrap and used the instrauctions in the maveric thread to upload maverick and get rid of the complete Verizon bull****...

- I flashed the radio from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=1189727

- I did change the build. prop by adding at the very end:

#

# GSM SIGNAL IMPROVEMENTS

#

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.hep=1

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28

ro.ril.enable.a53=1

ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1

ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295

ro.ril.htcmaskw1=14449

ro.ril.hsupa.category=9

- there are a few other settings in the build.prop to be done to get some things fixed - NO Verizon network

ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=0

and

ro.telephony.default_network=3

- I did restart and then - important - I had to define the APN ! by starting filling out the name, funnily a few of the data were added automatically- saving and 3G data connection was enabled !

Resume:

I tried a lot and some of the failures see below:

- RS Lite never worked! - not matter what version was used!

- Be careful wiht the battery... if the battery is too low , the docking station helps!!! put the Droid3 in the docking station and you can get up to the safestrap menu to start reloading of updates etc. Keep in mind - in the fastboot modus the device is not loading the battery!

- Liberty - didnt work at all

- there is a maverick version in this forum and I failed to use it, beause of updates I would have to do via RS lite.... which didn't work.

- My first way to make 3g data connection work , was simply adding the GSM update in the build.prop... - after updating on the latest release of the Verizon software - BUT for some reason - that I haven't understood until today:confused:- it just worked 1 week. Suddenly my access to 3G network was completely denied.. thats why I had to search a new way decribed above !

- tried different build.prop .. lot didn't work.. so be careful with overwriting !

Hope that helps !:rolleyes:

thnx to Rwaley who has helped liek the other guys in this and other froums ;-) where I collected everything bit by bit.. to make things run ! and F... off to the service quality of Motorola and Verizon... grrrr I hate them... ;-)

Hey!

i choosed to edit the build.prop to change 7 to 3 in the network ...and thats it.

if it works for you great ! but it just preselects instead global now UMTS/GSM.... actually it should have worked before already - you woul dhave just to select the setting in the menu.

Maybe my Verizon has a different Kernel or Rom or whatever... if you check the Forum there are a lot of people having issues and it seems some have got things worked easily.

Just to give you the internal details:

hey guys,

Building an app that runs a ping command at the moment and I can't quite get it to work. If I modify the command to something that isn't a terminal command then it'll output my error statement but i can't get it to display the ping output. any help would be awesome. I know my outputs for my error are bad but it's an easy way to determine what path it's outputting.

Thanks for any help you guys can give me,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
Hey,

Try using "system/bin/ping -c 1 192.168.1.1" instead.

And then add this line just after that:

proc.waitFor();

and while reading the output of the ping you might want to do it like this maybe?

String line = "";
String result = "";
while (line != null)
{
result = result + "\n" + line;
line = in.readLine();
}
Text.setText(result);

If you want to ping more than 1 packet I think it would be better to make a new thread and do proc.waitFor() in that thread. Then send a message using a handler to set the output of the ping to the TextView
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
k i have done that and that does make more sense but Im still getting a black screen on the output. i am testing on a Sony tab s and using AIDE (on the device) cause my eclipse is broken. this is how my code looks now,

import android.app.*;

public class MainActivity extends Activity

String line = "null";

while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {

Text.setText(in.readLine());

}

}

catch (Exception e)

{

String line="55";

Text.setText(line);

}

setContentView(Text);

}

}

Is there anything else I could be missing??

Thanks,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
Hey, I think you posted the same code again.

I am not sure if you can read the process stream before it is complete and ping does take a long time to complete. So your main thread is blocking on it and it doesn't get to executing the setContentView.

Thats why I think going for a seperate thread is a better option.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
so it would be better to put the ping into a new class and call on it when i need it??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
Not a seperate class, a seperate thread to be more specific.

Even if you do put the ping code in a seperate class' method and call that method in onCreate it will still run on the your applications main thread.

What I was trying to say is something along the lines of the following code:

private TextView textView;
private Process process;
private Handler handler;
private Thread pingThread;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

textView = new TextView(this);
textView.setText("Pinging...");
setContentView(textView);

try
{
process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("system/bin/ping -c 5 192.168.1.1");

handler = new Handler()
{
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg)
{
try
{
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));

String line = "";
String result = "";
while(line != null)
{
result = result + "\n" + line;
line = reader.readLine();
}
reader.close();
textView.setText(result);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
textView.setText("Error");
}
}
};

pingThread = new Thread()
{
@Override
public void run()
{
try
{
process.waitFor();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
handler.sendEmptyMessage(0);
}
};
pingThread.start();

} catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

I am not sure if this is exactly how you want your app to behave. There might be a better way of doing what you want than what I have suggested but I tested the above code and it works for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
thats wicked, basically what want my program to do is to run a ping command through a usb to rj45 adapter. at the moment I just need it to do the ping command through wifi and once that was working I was going to set it up to go through usb.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
I wonder if there's something I'm doing wrong like I'm build the apk in AIDE on the tablet or something, cause I'm still getting a black screen when booting the app.

If I error the code up a bit, Like put "system/bin/pi ....." instead I do get pinging on the app but no error output and if the code is fine then nothing displays
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
That is very strange :S.

If you use the incorrect command it works fine but when you use the correct command it doesn't?

Can you post your code? or provide more details if possible?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
the code is just the code you posted cause I thought if a I could get it working with that code then modify it to what it needs to do, when the command is incorrect it displays "ping....." but doesn't display an error, I'm going to install eclipse and build the package with that and see how it goes. did you test on a tablet and what did you use to deploy the package?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
I think i know whats happening. It isnt the Ide and using eclipse wont make much of a difference.

Are you usIng something like -c 5 in the ping command? Cause if you aren't i think ping is Going to take a really long time and all you'll see on the screen is "Pinging..."
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
Yea I have got that in the command, when the code is correct and working I dont get anything all I get is a black screen. Its when I error the command up a bit that I get pinging
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
hey guys,

just got eclipse running and tested it on an avd emulator and it runs perfect, so the question is what would cause it not to run on my tablet?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
I have no idea! I don't have access to an Android Tablet, so I can't test it out! I tested it out on my phone too and it works just fine.

One thing I can suggest though is:

Put log statements throughout the program to signify where the the control has reached. Then run it on your tablet. That should shed some light on where the code is failing on your tablet.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adz117:
tested it on my phone which is running 2.3 and it failed on there as well, "ping......" would pop up for about a second then disappear, also if I use a command like ls instead of ping on my tablet it will work perfectly fine so I'm guessing for some reason past android 2.1 it doesn't like the ping command. any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_R:
I tested it out on phone with 2.2. Did you try putting log statements and checking where it is failing.

You could also add breakpoints in your code and run it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerSandmann:
Hi everyone,

few days ago I flashed Megatron 1.0.1, and I found this ROM very good. But now I have a problem. I'm stuck in the recovery (solarnz-R3-230511-1902).

If I click on "reboot", it reboots on recovery,

if I push the power button for 5 seconds, it reboots to recovery,

if I click on "power off" and then press the power on button, it boots to recovery!

and if I click on "reboot to recovery" it reboots to recovery(this time it's logical :p).

The only thing that works (apart the recovery) is the APX mode.

Searching in the forums I found this post : . Sorry to be such a noob, but how can I get it to work? My ADB won't recognise my tab while it is in recovery...

Any solutions for this? Thanks in advance.

Sa(n)dmann! (:()
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricardopvz:
Install this recovery

Connect your tab to your pc, and adb push the recovery file

You maybe have to do this for it to work:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerSandmann:
I tried it, but it still rebooted on the recovery. But i found a solution! =D I clicked on power+vol_down button and then waited 5 seconds.! It booted megatron! =D Thanks for your help anyways!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricardopvz:
But install the recovery I told you, or you may have that issue again. Also it's always good to be up-to-date.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerSandmann:
So if anyone has this problem and finds this thread, here's what he has to do.

On your computer you'll need these drivers, and adb download the exe and install. Extract the drivers anywhere, just remember where!

1: While you're in the recovery : Power off.

2: Then start the tab by pressing power+vol_down button. You will be asked if you want to enter rck, but don't press vol_up, just wait.

3: Another screen appears, where you can choose between wipe the data or cold-boot linux. Choose cold-boot linux.

4: Now your tab started normally.

5: In the settings, enable ADB.

6: Connect your Tab to the computer. Normally it won't recognise it. Then go to the device manager, and find the device with a little /!\. Right click on it, there's an option to update the driver. Choose the folder where you extracted the drivers.

7: Then open a windows shell and write :

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools"

.

8: Then write this :

adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3

.

9: Be happy, now everything is working normally on your tab, just don't do the same error(unless my tutorial is so good you want to do it again)! ;)

[Nokia Lumia 800] EgoMaximus:
Hey guys,

Does anyone know if HTC HD2 is a non pentile screen and whether it's not as pixelated as Lumia 800?
[Nokia Lumia 800] /rant/:
The HD2 is a totally different display technology; nothing pentile as far as I remember. Besides that, I think the Lumia 800 screen is gorgeous.
[Nokia Lumia 800] vnvman:
The HD2 has a standard IPS panel, it has the same resolution of the Lumia but it's bigger (4.3"). Basically you can expect some pixelation, weak contrast, bad viewing angles and worse power management. Overall the actually perceived pixelation should be on par, but you're likely to face screen ghosting issues on the HD2. Personally I'm not the greatest fan of Amoled screens, but compared to the unit in the HD2 the one packed by the Lumia wins by far IMHO.
[Nokia Lumia 800] suzughia:
The only big "concern" about the lumia 800 display is the pentile matrix - and the polycarbonate shells that seems not so resistent...
[Nokia Lumia 800] anseio:
I tried to take a few photos of the HD2 vs the Lumia 800, but it's hard to get my cheap point-n-click to meter well across two such different displays. Seperately, I can get accurate colors on from the HD2, but cannot get good reproduction when taking shots of the Lumia 800.

The obvious difference is Clear Black. The HD2 looks dark gray when it should be black. The Lumia is... well... VERY black.

I personally prefer the way the HD2 shows the Nokia Blue theme. It's more... blue and less turquoisie. Magenta, OTOH, looks much better on the Lumia. It's vibrant and VERY magenta. On the HD2, it just looks like a cheap attempt at bright pink, but slanted toward a flat purple instead. A little too much blue in the display, overall, that lends to great blues and not so great pinks. Whites on the HD2 are cooler as well.

I, personally, don't give a crap about the pentile. I have to think about it and look for it in order to notice it.

The HD2 display will appear more pixelated simply by the decreased pixel density.
[Nokia Lumia 800] suzughia:
I came from an iPhone 4 and I think that we can say anything bad about the iPhone 4 but the display it's gorgeous and the pixel density produce clear and well shaped images, text that cannot be compared w/ the Lumia for obvious reasons but the PENtile display is a punch in the eye - an added one just after the poor resolution imposed by MS -.
