Good news! I went to the Tmobile store, and they couldn't even get it to light up when they attached it to their computer thingy. I had a protective case on it, but have dropped it before a couple of times over the past year. So I guess the hardware had gotten damaged slowly (no scratches on its outside). They then looked up my account, and sent me a new g2x! I had forgotten that I had bought the insurance on it. So sending the damaged one back to them now. Very happy. :-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] darbear5610:
Good that they sent you a new one. I would have gotten myself a Galaxy Nexus and freed myself from the nightmare.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vn00914361:
Just un-brick it, dude. Or buy a different one if you like. Hehe

Now sell the New G2X, and buy a One S, or S II , Galaxy nexus off contract. :>

I just wanted to give a heads up here in the OV forums for anyone potentially interested in upgrading that pretty soon I'll be posting my Triumph in the classifieds section. I'm getting the Galaxy Note to use on Straight Talk, so once I get it and set it all up and make sure it's running properly, I'll have that listing up, hopefully within a week or two.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] adinis78:
Once in a while I go into Samsung Apps to see what apps are available but everytime i try to launch the app it just sits there loading. Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] TeeeJaay:
here is what i did to fix that problem

- go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications

- Locate and Select Samsung Apps from the list

- Clear Data

- Force Stop

- Uninstall Updates

- Run Samsung Apps again and install the updates when prompted
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Themes and Apps] adinis78:
Thanks that worked, wonder why this keeps happening every so often to me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] carson321:
Hi all, long time browser first time poster!

I have come across an issue with my TFP that every now and then, even when in the exact same spot where the wifi has worked before, it stops working.

My issue isn't range or anything like that.

When I go to my wifi settings, my Prime can see my network and many others around me, shows my signal strength as 'good' but when I tap my network and hit connect, it does nothing! The dialog box disappears and I am still not connected to my network, but it is still there in the list and still shows signal strength as good!

Has anyone come across this before/know a possible reason?!?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
No idea. Try forgetting and re-connecting?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mtbr442:
I am experiencing the same thing. Seems to be happening on both AP's and tethering from my phone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ssoldz:
Experienced as well

I also have this problem occasionally. I have always been able to solve it by either: forgetting wifi source and rescanning; or 2) rebooting.

I agree that it is irritating.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kdn102:
This happens to me nearly every time I try to make a new connection.

The one place that it happens less frequently is at work, which is strange, because the wifi here is very spotty. Maybe because the signal comes/goes so often the software notices it more? *shrug*
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] proxus01:
I as well do have this issue. To resolve my issue, I have been turning the wifi on and then off again. Sucks to waste 30 seconds waiting for it reconnect but it works. Seems to happen after the tablet has been sitting awhile
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordanmw:
+1 on that issue, seen it many times on several primes.

How does it feel to beta test a product that was not ready for release?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
What update are you on? I haven't had this happen since the initial upgrade to ICS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] carson321:
Hey, I always try to keep up to date, i am on ics and on .21

Wifi version is 6.1.1.22, dunno if that makes a differences to anything!

Tried his, seems to work sometimes but more often doesn't!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordanmw:
Same version here. I have seen the forget/reconnect method fail also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ASPrime:
I had this problem when I had it set to turn off the wifi when it was sleeping. Once I unchecked that option, it never appeared again. Always had to reboot to get it on wifi when it happened.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Crazy. Obviously I could go into detail on some configuration changes for your routers or whatever, but I'm sure you've browsed the forum enough to see them all. And if not, even if you can change your own router settings it does no good abroad.

Tried several different networks with the problem occurring across the board?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] carson321:
Yesterday evening the problem attacked with a vengence, Could not connect to my network, tried several times turning wifi off and on, forgetting and reconnecting to network and several reboots, nothing would let me connect to my network, gave up and went to sleep!

I only found that option last night! My wifi has always been set to always on, but just before going to bed i changed this option to off when asleep, haven't been back to my prime to check it out yet.

Unfortunately I don't really have the opportunity to try different networks for long enough to see if this is a problem!

I have tried a few settings changes on my router, last thing left to try is static IP{ address, that is this evenings job when I can round up all my devices and grab their mac addresses!

[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
As many others have been doing lately, I also am getting ready to sell my Triumph and leave VM. In my case, I'm getting the Galaxy Note (just ordered it) and will be using it on Straight Talk. I have my phone on me 24/7 and just got tired of not having a completely reliable phone/service. I've really enjoyed being a part of this community and have appreciated all the work the devs put in. Wish I could have contributed more, but with every thing I've learned in my Android/rooting experience with the OV and MT I was able to give some little tips here and there, which I hope were helpful.

As a heads up, when I get around to it, once I get my Note all set up and play around with it to make sure it's all working right, I'll be posting this in the classifieds to give you guys first dibs on it before I put it on Craigslist or eBay, if you're looking to buy an extra or upgrade, along with a summary of the issues it has (fortunately nothing too major, pretty much just the basic QC issues everyone's had.)

I wish you all well as you continue on with VM and the Triumph, and I'll miss being a part of it.
[Motorola Triumph] prodigy10:
I'm actually selling my triumph as well. Going to straight talk but getting the iphone. I know iphone dont kill me lol.
[Motorola Triumph] androidjel:
is it a good phone ?
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Its not the best. If you spend some time reading reviews and checking out the forums here and on AndroidForums (its more active over there) you'll see all the issues people have had with it. I upgraded to it from my OV and since I was willing to overlook the minor issues I had with it I loved it but the unreliability of the touchscreen has driven me crazy lately. It definitely runs 100% better with cm7, although froyo is better for gaming and has HDMI. I'd say it really depends on your usage. If you're not on it 24/7 like me and can overlook the minor issues its great, otherwise I'd say to stay away. I hate saying that knowing I'll be selling it soon, but I can't in good conscience say otherwise :p
[Motorola Triumph] mllk:
hey now, i see that you're complaining about the unreliability of the touchscreen. Have you tried removing the 2nd screen protector from the phone? I was complaining too until I removed it. Made a big difference.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Yeah, did that probably the first week I had it. Didn't seem to make much of a difference.
[Motorola Triumph] CornfedChris:
I have had the phone for about 7 months now and I am still happy with it. Of course coming from a Blackberry I should be, but with the amount of customization and development available for this phone, you can fix ALMOST all the bugs or glitches that most ppl were complaining about on Froyo.

Over at androidforums, ziggy46 and some others are almost finished with a gingerbread rom that has HDMI working on it. All they need fixed is 3G/Data & and SMS/MMS which, thanks to our devs, we have had really good luck at getting to work on so many other roms.

On top of that, we are beginning to have new ICS roms popping up. This phone is far from dead as some would think.
[Motorola Triumph] SMGed:
I am too selling the phone and moving to another carrier. What will VM do to the phone after the different provider will port the number? Will I need to do anything before I sell? I reverted to stock, but CWM is still there, will the buyer be able to activate it?:confused:

Thank you, it's been pleasure to be a part of CM7 triumph development.

You said you are getting a galaxy note on straight talk?Please tell me how to do that,i have wanted that phone so bad but i can not afford to get regular phone store service/contract.Getting that phone on straight talk would be a dream come true for me.

How do you get the iphone on straight talk?That is awesome!I just asked freedomispopular how he is getting his galaxy note on straight talk,if i could do that i would leave virgin in a heartbeat.The triumph has been fun but i would really like to get a high end mainstream phone for once and do it with out the contract and being on a mainstream phone carrier.My mother in law and father in law both have straight talk and it is amazing,they travel all over the place and said it has worked everywhere they have been,and crystal clear.thanks in advance.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
It's pretty simple. You just buy the phone (Amazon, Ebay, or Expansys USA would be some good places to look), then go to straighttalksim.com and buy the $15 Sim card along with their monthly service, pop the Sim card in, put in the apn settings, and you're good to go. You'd do basically the same thing for the iPhone. There's a thread here with a lot of info if you have time to red through it: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1753835 I had no problems setting mine up, so if you decide to go that route and have any questions feel free to pm me.

Ok,Wow that sounds easy.Thank you so much!What company can it be?sprint,at&t,tmobile or what?
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Straight Talk's BYOP program uses ATT or tmo, depending on which Sim you order. With either of those devices, you'd wanna choose the ATT Sim, as they would only get edge speeds on tmo. If you had a pentaband device or one designed to utilize tmo's 3g you'd choose the tmo Sim.

[General Questions and Answers] rosenbaa29:
What *228 numbers are you aware of? I know of just *228 with option 1, activate and option 2, update roaming capabilities. What else is there?
[General Questions and Answers] boosterp:
For LTE *228 does nothing. You can dial it, you may get a response, but it does not do crap. The SIM which authenticates with the subscriber info also holds the PRL, ERI, etc and the PRL will update usually during an authentication session. PRLs also vary depending on location.15098 to 15109 are current.
[General Questions and Answers] rosenbaa29:
*22890 updates PRL?
[General Questions and Answers] boosterp:
It can force update the PRL in rare cases or a VZW tech can push it to you. Last year with the release of the T-Bolt *228 was messing and RTing some SIMs when people did a *228 so with the release of the Charge a MR was released to disable that function. It still ials, it may even say programming, but it is not updating the PRL.
[HTC Rezound] 996:
So I had recently rooted and unlocked the boot loader of my rezound. I am running

ICS on it and I am very satisfied. I have a few questions though:

What does s-off really mean?

Is there anyway I can run the phone with a SIM not from Verizon?

Thanks

Mike
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
S-off just allows us to flash radios pretty much. It is not needed for flashing roms.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
The S in S-off/on just stands for signature. You are turning off signature checking(hence the term s-off) and allowing it to bypass that "feature". HTC did it to assist in making the device "unbrickable". If you keep s-on you can only flash certain things, and other parts need to be flashed via PH98IMG's.

With an s-off device, you are pretty much free to the world. If you have an engineering hboot flashed, you can keep your hboot in a locked status and still flash anything at anytime,but be aware if you attempt to s-on with an engineering hboot, you will brick.
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
S-off isn't really necessary right now since most of us have latest radios since ics ota hasn't dropped yet. Just wait awhile for s-off as it is still not perfectly safe yet IMO. I will wait awhile. I don't need leaked firmware and radios
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
S-off will allow you to do rom installs in one flash without the need to do the PH98IMG.zip through the bootloader and it will also allow full restores from nandroid backups without the need to flash the kernel separately...

As s-off devices get more widespread, I expect the rom developers to switch to this method and stop packaging the kernel separately.
[HTC Rezound] 996:
All great responses. thank you for the quick replies. As I look more into these things, I do have to ask.

What are you guys running on your rezounds?

S-off/on? Also are you rooted with a rom?
[HTC Rezound] Evocm7:
I just have an unlocked bootloader with s-on. I'm waiting for more s-off users and for it to be proven failsafe or close to it

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djfrost17:
hello all...

i'm looking for some help. a couple of days ago my VZ's GNex speaker stopped working. it occured on my way home. my son was watching a cartoon on YouTube and the audio was streaming through my cars head unit via BT. everything was fine. when i turned the car off...the audio didnt transfer to the speaker...as it usually does.

since then...no notification sounds...no ringtones...NOTHING!!!

my headphone jack works fine. my earpiece (for listening to calls) works fine. the phone is ok...except for the speaker.

i am on CM9 running Francos Kernel.

i pulled the battery and rebooted. nothing. i relouded an back up (one that i knew everything was fine)...NOTHING!! i played with every single setting i know...nothing!!

my question is. is it hardware or software? and how do i find out. if its software...then maybe i can fix it...but if its hardware...i think i am going to need a new phone.

any body else encounter this problem? any fixes??

thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djfrost17:
so a quick update:

i started all over...went back to 4.02 using the GNex ToolKit...NOTHING!!!

speaker is still not working!!!

so i guess i'm going to head into a VZ store today...:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djfrost17:
alright...so here is my final status.

i called VZ last night and explain the situation. they transferred me to Asurion, who basically didnt do anything for me. except try to get 100 bucks from me to get a replacement. :mad: so after 30mins of a heated conversation...they basically said...we cant do anything...so go talk to VZ.

so i called VZ...and they transferred to Tech Support. and after a 30 second conversation (with the best tech support guy EVER!!) he said...we'll be sending you a replacement phone. should be here tomorrow.

i know that doesnt fix the issue...but i guess its a manufacturer defect...:o

long story short...i'm getting a new phone tomorrow to fix my speaker issue...:cool:

Hey guys,

I'm a real noob at roms, rooting etc but i followed a tutorial on Youtube which lead me to root my phone using Odin and Superoneclick. I have no idea what this did as i didn't notice a difference on my phone but now ICS is released for my Galaxy SII which is TmobileUk branded. However, when i check on Kies, it says New Firmware Is Available but when i click Firmware Upgrade button then nothing happens. When I click Firmware upgrade and initialization under tools i get the error GT-I9100 does not support initialising. When reading on forums i found out this is because of me rooting so i searched on how to unroot Galaxy S2 but everything comes up with Unroot and installing Stock Kernal etc but i am not sure if i have installed a kernal but i can remember i put XWKDD file in ODIN.

Android Version: 2.3.3

Baseband Version: I9100BOKF1

Kernal Version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 root@DELL103 #2

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.BOKF3

and i have no MOD VERSION which i fugured is for a rom.

When typing *#1234# i get these versions:

PDA: I9100BOKF3

CSC: I9100TMUKF1

I have read some posts and found UK Tmobile have BOKF3 etc from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113928

but i do not know what todo with it.

Also i just installed an app called Ginger Unroot which has unrooted my phone so if i need to root or do anything can you explain please and will any of the steps wipe my phone (apps, data etc)

I really need this help

RE

Im real desperate :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damastah:
What most people do one they root their phones is install ROMs based off of the official release. It's like getting the release, and guaranteeing root access. I think that's a better way. You have more freedom. Otherwise, you can upgrade and pray that Samsung doesn't release something that breaks your rooting capabilities. Check the forums for a ROM based off if the official OTA update and install that. If you have a custom recovery installed, (Which you should have if you rooted correctly) add far as I know, the update won't work.

Use thanks if I've helped you :)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talzer:
hey, im attempting to mod my xperia play r800i but need to clarify a few issue here as im very very very new to android.

1. currently on 0.42, if i root it and then update to 0.62, is the phone still rooted? if not, what is the way to root 0.62? is the same rooting method applicable on it?

2. to mod my phone, is the sequence correct? unlock boatloader via sony homepage>root phone> install DoomLord kernel> flash JokaWild rom

3. for the CVM, can it be accessed for all xperia play, or need to install someting to access into that mode?

thanks!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playermty:
just unlock the bootloader and then install the DoomKernel via fastboot, Doomkernel is already rooted and CWM installed
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain67:
If you update OTA and not through a computer, you keep root. However, OTA doesn't work after removing bloatware, so make sure you haven't removed anything yet.

The order would be unlock bootloader, flash stock .62 firmware, flash DooMKernel, load recovery, install jokawild.

The CWM you would use to flash jokawild is built into DooMKernel. When booting the phone, the notification light will turn blue. When it does, press the back button to enter recovery.

Also, you don't need to worry about keeping root, or rooting again since jokawild is already rooted automatically.
