[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] enarsee:
Okay so I had my phone working fine with stock rom rooted.

Then I got beats by dr dre and thought of meddling with my phone and installing beats audio on it.

Got a .zip from xda and installed it through normal android recovery (Volume up + Home + Power)

Then, when it rebooted, it refused to go past the Galaxy Wonder screen.

Then to reset it, I tried resetting to factory using the Android Recovery ( Volume Up + .... )

No use, same problem. So I thought, I might as well flash to a custom ROM.

Downloaded ODIN, and tried to install ClockworkMOD from acro68.

Followed instructions started ODIN and then clicked on Start. After that, it gave the following :

And then my phone stopped at Samsung Galaxy W screen again.

After that I did the same sequence, this time checked out Auto Restart and then ODIN stopped at

setup connection

I can still enter Android Recovery and Downloading menu, but it gets stuck on reboot.

Any help would be largely appreciated :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] enarsee:
Ok guys solved

For those wondering how,

I when my phone refused to restart and ODIN kept on waiting for it to reset, I switched off the phone.

And since it was connected to USB it started charging and ODIN worked its magic :P

Then, I installed a custom ROM and voila phone's working again :)

I bought a blue Incipio case and i love it. No bulk at. I have a white att note and i recently got a new sd card. Well when i took off the case i have paint transfer from it just on the battery door. Not a deal breaker but this is the aftermath. I contacted Incipio and they are going to send me new case. Anyone else have a similar problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
I have a white gnote with the same case and color and do not have this issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpg71:
Same problem along one of my corners. I'll shoot em an email.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] vikramdhani:
SOrry to hear about this issue, hope you will get this fixed before it is too late
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
I've never had an issue with Incipio. I dig their featherlight cases. Sux that Im not the only one
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clockcycle:
ouch, thanks for the heads up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
Incipio emailed me today and are sending out a grey replacement. Not sure if its just this color blue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
took a closer look and i do have paint transfer but it isnt as noticible. I have light blue lights up the back but they came off with a alcohol prep. Used one on the case to take some of the paint off to hopefully help the transfer but it rubbed a little too much off. Noticed the paint coming off on the outside corner as well without using the alcohol prep on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
Ok so rubbing alcohol took it off the sides and battery door?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
Yup but like I said I have ghost armor on it and used a alcohol prep from work. Almost debating on not using a case again because of this

from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
Just got my Incipio replacement case. Great company.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimtyson:
Didn't the alcohol mess up the plastics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
nope, just took the paint off when rubbing too hard lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
Just got my grey case. No issues. Probably limited just with that color blue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fullyflaredfred:
I have the same issue! Mine might actually be worse. I love the case and color so much though...still incipio seems like a good company. I wouldn't mind getting another feather case from them. Ill shoot them an email as well!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
Is urs blue as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Alcohol should do the job. Samsung makes the best plastic. Thats why all of their phones are plastic.

-Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fullyflaredfred:
Yea I have the blue one as well. Ill post some pics of the paint transfer when I get the chance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] juanchy4:
another thing u can do is fold the back cover of the battery with contact paper and then put the case on it ... it would not transfer paint to the battery cover and it would not scratch it also :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enzo319:
So far its only the blue case. I have a gray one now and no problems
[HTC Rezound] tgsharpe210:
Which straight talk sim card can I use for the rezound?
[HTC Rezound] tgsharpe210:
can anyone help with this problem can't find answer on the internet anywhere?
[HTC Rezound] swilbert80:
Rezound sim card

I am assuming that you want to use it on ATT or T-mobile GSM network? Regardless, it will take either full size or micro. Verizon is the subsiding carrier, and they typically seem to sell it with the micro sim card (and it is what I have in mine) so I'm sure it will work. It should work with either though.
[HTC Rezound] MotoDj:
your rezound has the micro sim card?

never seen one that did...

not trying to bust your chops but my sim is easily 3 times the size of my sd card... the micro sim card thats in the razr is roughly the same size as my sd
[HTC Rezound] swilbert80:
Is it a Verizon 4g sim or gsm? No offense taken. Just trying to help out as I have been helped on here.

But the resound is able to use either size. I'll post a pic shortly.

Edit: posted pics. I had the same question when I got the phone, but they said it would work with either size. Surprisingly, I haven't had any issue with the micro. No unseating or anything.
[HTC Rezound] MotoDj:
any idea if one is better than the other?

i've never heard that rezounds could use the micros...

very interesting, sorry to have been incorrect above

i've seen about 7 or 8 rezounds, and they all have the bigger card, and we all suffer a weak 4g compared to other phones around here...

i wonder if i should try the micro sim, isnt it like a v2, or the next generation of 4g sims??

i think i'll start another thread to see if theres an advantage, but i'm gonna google around looking for more info on its ability to use both, i'm still in awe lol
[HTC Rezound] swilbert80:
Well, I have only had the micro, but I can tell you that this thing picks up 4g in usually 1-3 seconds after I turn on mobile network and it doesn't drop unless I tell it to (or if I am in the basement of a large 3 story concrete building at work). It maybe the ics firmware though. I know others have had problems with it, but it has improved my rezound in every way. The only reason I would even think about going back is to be able to use a GB kernel that could undervolt, but the hit I'd take on the web browsing speed just wouldn't be livable not that I have gotten used to the ice cream...
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
Yea I've had way better connection with the ICS firmware then I did with GB.

Sent from my S-OFF ICS Rezound
[HTC Rezound] tgsharpe210:
I just received my att sim card in the mail today and I can't get it to work I get sim card from uknown source error message. Are you sure I can activate simcard with this phone? I googled it and cant find this info but see advertisements for people to flash rezound to straight talk for $100. Please tell me you didn't tell me I could do this without auctually knowing what your talking about.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
Why is it our responsibility if you ****ed up? The Rezound will work on GSM bands, but as of right now, it does not work fully. You should be able to make and receive calls, may or may not have data, and SMS does not work.
[HTC Rezound] tgsharpe210:
I'm just saying people shouldn't say something will work when they don't know what they're talking about.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
If you did some reading on these forums you'd know that there's a problem with GSM networks. Because a SIM fits into a slot doesn't mean it'll work...

As for flashing to Straight Talk, you shouldn't need to if you have a SIM. What the hell is Straight Talk anyway?
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Pre pay that uses Verizon's network...
[HTC Rezound] funziebear:
And att i believe
[HTC Rezound] tgsharpe210:
So do I have any options like can I flash something to get it to work? I see people advertising flashing it to straight talk and it requires a sim card that has been used on verizon which I have any help would be very much appreciated I currently have no phone.
[HTC Rezound] Vitamin_D:
Did you ever get this figured out. I know the t-mobile prepaid card works for me. I'm using Rezrom. I can't remember if it worked for stock or not. I'm thinking about getting a straight talk sim card just to play around with.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Around here straight talk uses Verizon towers. Anyone know how to flash this phone to straight talk? Or would it be ad simple as putting one of their sim cards in?
[HTC Rezound] Vitamin_D:
That's not how straight talk works. If you have Att in your area, straight talk will work. T-mobile and Att are the only networks that will work with the bring your own device plans. You have to get a specific phone to use the Verizon towers.
[HTC Rezound] gunz.jones:
Straight talk does not have software for any phone other than the optimus they have on android. The tower type is based on the phone's letter. The 900g is att and the t is Verizon?

Edit: Cannot use a non-straight talk phone on straight talk. Even on gsm bands.
[HTC Rezound] Vitamin_D:
You can use non straight talk phones on straight talk just not for Verizon. The rezound will probably work with the att straight talk sim. You might get data but not positive. T-Mobile straight talk sim will work as well but only for voice.
[HTC Rezound] FutureAirways:
Just to clarify the lost souls on here as I am doing what the asker wanted. So heres a vague overview:

Straight talk is a verizon mvno like pageplus, however they also use atat/tmobile/sprint towers pending the phone in your pocket.

The HTC Rezound can work on ST in cdma mode or gsm mode one of the few phones that can! To use it in cdma mode youll need a straight talk phone first, to use it with gsm network you need to buy an unlocked sim card and convert/unlock the full gsm potential in the rezound.

Both methods require some mental power and research you CANNOT stick a card in this phone and expect anything to happen. Research this topics the guides are out there...
[HTC Rezound] slickrichierich:
Ok if you want to use straight talk cdma which is a verizon MVNO then you need to flash the phone using straight talk donor phone. If you want to use it with either at&t or tmobile compatible sim then dial *#*#4636#*#* in dialer, then phone information there is a option for "Global Mode" and ones for "WCDMA Only" and "GSM Only" ect...
[HTC One X] DucRider749S:
If I buy a One X from At&t in the US and need use it in london

the process is...

I will need it to be unlocked and then buy a SIM from

a European carrier, I should be good to go correct?

I know this is a covered question but I'm wondering about

the hardware differences between the US and international versions...

will I still have 4g data in europe?
[HTC One X] Bomaster:
There is no 4g in London and I think most of Europe
[HTC One X] DazzXP:
Isn't it CDMA so doesn't use a sim card, and it's not 4G per say it's LTE.
[HTC One X] ste1164:
It's not CDMA no. It uses LTE which you won't be able to get in the uk. But it can get the fake 4G which is hspa+. The us one x also has a dual core snapdragon s 4 processor. That's the only difference I think.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
You'd get more responses posting in the Vivid or Skyrocket forums. You'll find more U.S. phone users that have used their phones abroad there then you will here. The majority of people here are in Euroasia where the Teg3 version's sold. Chances are whatever constraints AT&T puts on the One XL will mirror those of the Vivid and Skyrocket anyway.
[HTC One X] simcarloc:
Hey all.

After a 3 year hiatus from HTC following the Hero's music player glitches I have purchased the One X to discover (with much pain!) that it appears to have the same issue - intermittant skips/jumps when playing music.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Are there any fixes? I cannot believe this glitch exists in the One X! How on earth is this possible? It's like the cockroach of glitches...

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] phil112345:
turning off sound enhancer fixed it for me.

plus i don't think beats is the "way its meant to be heard" - i'm sure the artist released the song as it is meant to be heard, rather than assume every single person in the world listens to music with bassier and louder presets and adjusts the music accordingly
[HTC One X] simcarloc:
So I get to have a phone with Beats advertised on the back without being able to use it? Great!

How can such a massive bug make it into the final product? I love this phone but I am a music fanatic and not being able to use Beats will irritate me - especially as I have Beats headphones.

I should add that my phone is the Orange UK version.

Grr!!
[HTC One X] Arthur Hucksake:
I was getting skipping with Beats enabled but it has cleared up since the 1.28 update.
[HTC One X] simcarloc:
where do I find the update mate?
[HTC One X] Arthur Hucksake:
Depends whether Orange have released it yet or not. To check you goto settings > About > Software Updates > Check

Can also check your current version in Settings > About > Software information
[HTC One X] simcarloc:
Damn - nothing available yet. Typical!

Thanks for your post though. At least I can look forward to an update that will hopefully fix this issue.
[HTC One X] NZtechfreak:
I was also getting skips, using PowerAMP (which can be EQ'd to sound exactly like Beats, for those who don't like authentic sound by the way) and setting thread priority to 2 and the buffer to massive I have no skips now.
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
Do you get hissing/crackles/audio pops when using power amp?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] freedomispopular:
Does anyone know of a car dock that that will fit the Note and act as both a charger and FM transmitter? I have a dock that's absolutely perfect but unfortunately it's too small for the Note, and my car doesn't have auxiliary input. I know there's some chargers/Fm transmitter solutions out there, but that would require a separate dock and I'd prefer to not spend as much money as that would require. So unless I can somehow jury-rig the one I have, I'm kind of stuck in an undesirable situation.
[HTC One X] saup:
Hi. I am having very weak wifi signal and the signal keeps droping on my one x while my old sensation at the same place has better wifi reception. Any one facing this problem or any one has any fix? I have the insertcoin 3.3.0 installed. Even with the stock firmware i faced the same issue. Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] five1234:
Hi,

I'm facing exactly the same problem...

only when standing in a range of a few meters from the router, I have a good connection.

My desire has a much much better connection.

do you think we have to send it back?

gr,

F
[HTC One X] linkisoc:
I had to buy a plug in wifi extender, put it into an area in the house quite far from my wireless modem router, One X now has much better wifi reception.

My Samsung Galaxy Nexus never had this problem, or Nexus S, or Nexus.... seems the wifi reception of the One X handset is weak.

By the way my modem router is Netgear 1000SP and my wifi extender is the Netgear one. Very easy to set up. £69 (in the UK).
[HTC One X] five1234:
but that will only solve the problem at home and not at work or other places :(
[HTC One X] wph:
I have the same problem. My HTC Desire has much better WiFi reception than my One X. I tested it with the WiFi Analyzer app and the difference in signal strength is on average 10 DBm, which is quite large difference. For me it makes WiFi unusable on the top floor of my house, where the Desire never had problems. With the One X I have set WiFi to Best WiFi in Settings, but it didn't help much.

What I also noticed are very large variations in signal strength. In a room next to the room where my WiFi router is, I should have strong signal, sometimes I have 2 arcs signal strength in the WiFi icon, but sometimes those bars drop do only the dot in the icon, so a large difference.

edit: as far as I can remember, before the update I didn't notice the WiFi problem, but that might be due to the fact I just got my phone. I haven't unlocked my bootloader so I can't test it myself, so maybe somebody else is willing to test that? It's important to find out, because if WiFi really was better before the OTA update, it means it's just a firmware issue. If not... it can be hardware.
[HTC One X] saup:
I think its a software issue as many of us are facing the exact same problem only when away from the router. My router is on the ground floor and my room is on the second floor. Its just that floor where I am facing the problem while my sensation has got a decent signal. I feel its a software issue and the next update should hopefully solve it.

I am also having weak signal on ground floor rooms where the router is just 7-8 feet away from me.
[HTC One X] Masor:
I just sent my One X back because the wifi signal was so poor

about 15 feet from the router i had 1 bar signal any further non, what so ever. Pretty much made the phone a useless pile of ****e when it comes to using wifi.

Spoke to HTC regarding it but they told me to send the phone back, i will see what the next phone is like, most likely the same by the sounds of it if other people are having this issue
[HTC One X] wph:
Please let us know if your next phone is (way) better, because if it is, maybe we need to send it back too. For now I keep having the hope that it's just software and will be fixed.
[HTC One X] Masor:
I just got my replacement. The Wifi is alot better. I have full bars in the same location that i had 1 bar on the old one

There is definately a big difference, my main problem was at home, but i had 1 bar at my desk at work aswell, i now have full bars.

I havent updated it with any firmware as of yet, but it said there was non available when i last got it to check.

If it helps at all its Build 1.26.206.2

Worth sending yours back, there seems to be a few people with this issue, but if it was a fault with the model i would expect alot more people complaining, not just the few of us

I think my replacement phone they have given me an o2 Rom one due to the fact it has crappy o2 software on it... not to happy about that but at least the wifi works
[HTC One X] wph:
And did you update your first One X? (or do you know which version that one runned on?)

(because like I stated in one of my previous posts, I don't recall any problems on the first firmware, which was 1.26, but I used it only a few days with 1.26. Now I'm on 1.28.)
[HTC One X] Masor:
I updated yeah, i believe there was an update on Friday or so, unfortunately i didnt take note of what version it updated to

This phone is o2 branded by the looks of it, its not what my original phone was it was unbranded completly, i may take this one back aswell, tho not sure if its worth it as at least the wifi works. O2 wont release the update as early as the unbranded presumably.

Suppose i could just custom rom this and get rid of the o2 stuff
[HTC One X] wph:
Would you be so kind to look up what radio version you are running now?

With my old Desire I would just flash a different radio myself, but that's not possible without S-Off.
[HTC One X] Masor:
Yep no bother it is:

Baseband Version:

1.1204.90.13

Build Number:

1.26.206.2

Hope that helps
[HTC One X] josumart:
I have the same issue with the wifi signal. I tried to install the 1.28 european ruu and some custom roms, but did not work. Do you think that it is a hardware or a software issue?
[HTC One X] Masor:
I think its possibly firmware, like wph says in his posts, I'm sure before the phone had latest firmware there wasn't a problem.

Is it possible to flash the older Rom and firmware?
[HTC One X] wph:
No that's the problem. Flashing an older RUU will not work, since the bootloader has changed and doesn't allow an older bootloader to be flashed. Unlocking the bootloader doesn't help since it doesn't give S-Off and therefore it's impossible to flash a different radio/baseband.
[HTC One X] josumart:
So will have to wait to the S-off to flash a new radio and hope that could solve the problem?
[HTC One X] wph:
Like I stated above, if I recall correct, the problem wasn't there with the old radio. But I only used it a few days before the update came. If it's just the radio, maybe HTC will fix it with a new update, so it could be with the next OTA update. If the next update doesn't contain a new radio, then the wait will be longer. If the radio from 1.26 was really better, it would be nice to know that for sure. That means I don't have to send my phone back. And there S-Off would be handy, then I could test my premise. If the radio isn't the problem, but it's hardware, then waiting is pointless and we just have bad luck with our devices.
[HTC One X] josumart:
I mailed the seller yesterday concerning this problem, and they are going to change my device. I will send it today, hoping to get it back asap.
[HTC One X] Masor:
Hopefully just be the radio, mine is definately sorted with the new phone, but im still on 1.26. If O2 release the firmware for 1.28 soon i will know. Sticking to 1.26 for the time being while its working :)

Its not the ROMs it is the leaked kernels/modems. My gps works great on AOKP 32 and all other ROMs. The GB gps fix or the fix I used are really our only options until source is released. I used FasterFix, then GpsFix and have not list my 2 second lock speed through numerous ICS ROMs.

Can someone find me a USB Cable that has its data pins shorted? I know the stock usb cable has its pins shorted and this allows for higher power to be transferred to our phone so it charges faster. Cables that are just regular and for data transfer power at a rate of 500ma, while shorted pin cables charge 1A+. Thank you.

Or if someone could help me find an authentic samsung oem cable that is EXACTLY like ours that would be great.

Should i trust this?

this one is trusted but too expensive lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
The OEM cable does not have the pins shorted. If it did, it wouldn't work for data. The pins are shorted in the charger.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
How does it charge faster than other cables then? o.O jw
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kd0axs:
Mine doesn't. In fact, I charge my E4GT with my old Palm Pre charger because it seems to charge faster than the Samsung charger.

Maybe some phones shipped with a different cable, (unlikely) but the pins are definitely not shorted on my OEM cable. I use it for transferring data and tethering all the time, which would be impossible if the data pins were shorted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
I second that. I saw a tutorial on how to short the pins on a female usb hub to only allow faster charging a while back.
