I'm betting something is wrong with the card. That is not a normal message to get with a brand new SD card. Try a different one, if you have access to one, or excahnge the one you've got.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boristruyens:
No luck

OK, so i've tried 2 diffirent 8gb sdhc cards and 1 regular 2gb sd card.

still no luck.

the same problem keeps occuring :s

I tried formatting the cards in every possible way, even trough adb with the card inside the phone, no luck.

I think i'm about to sell the phone on ebay :p
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
you can just buy the sd card tray on ebay for about 12 bucks, easy to replace
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost800:
Just format it on your computer instead (micro SD card reader or whatever).

I had this problem using IC9 beta, wouldn't format my card.

I used my PC and it was fine...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] smontero:
As of now I am on a kj6based GB and tried to install the deoxed kd1 kernel and my phone wouldn't pass the Samsung screen. The reason for changing kernels is becaused they're aren't any custom roms for kj6 kernels can anyone help
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
You were on KJ6 and you flashed KD1? If so, use the Heimdall One-Click guide in the second link of my signature. Then read to the guide in the first link of my signature to help you learn. I have a few of the KJ6 Custom ROM's listed and directions how to flash them.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] smontero:
so it's not possible to change kernels?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Not between Froyo & Gingerbread (GB), no. You can use different GB kernels between different GB ROMs.

I'm not sure what you meant in the previous post about not having anything custom KJ6-based. There are many KJ6-based custom ROMs & kernels within the Development forum.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] smontero:
I was looking in the Bible of sgs4 and I only seen like one kj6 based ROM I guessed I asumed and I never had froyo
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
No worries, at least you were looking around :) There are a couple of sticky threads, either in Q&A, General, or both, that can point you in the direction of a KJ6 ROM. Browse the Development section, though. It's a bit to sift through but there are really good ROMs in there. Our wiki (check my signature) might have some good info for you, too.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] smontero:
thanks man
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
You don't have to use the heimdall!

You have GB bootloaders and Froyo kernel, all you have to do is launch CWM recovery by :

Taking battery off, inserting it back, pressing Volume + & - while plugging the power cable in.

once you're in CWM just flash a GB kernel (I'd go with AntonX 1b3).

Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] Divad89:
At this point I have had my Sensation for about 3 weeks, its rooted and I've installed Virtuous Inquisition 4.02 with SebastianFM v. 1.4.1 kernel. But at first I installed the newest Coredroidrom, but it kept shutting down and had a change in battery level (usually a drop in battery level), so I tried installing Virtuous Inquisition, at first there was nothing but after ½-1 week its the same story, at this point it can shut down 4-5 times a day or more, and it happens when I'm talking in the phone, taking a picture, sending a sms or just have it in the pocket.

Could it be the battery (it's stock), or is it something else?

[HTC Sensation] Deathsongx3:
It could be anything, a bug, your firmware, or hardware.
[HTC Sensation] kfhughes:
Is it shutting down or rebooting? I've been using CoinDriod for a few weeks and have some stability issues, but it's either a freeze or reboot.
[HTC Sensation] GROGG88:
Boot in safe-mode to rule out 3rd party apps...

Power off, power on, when splash appears hold volume down throughout the boot process...
[HTC Sensation] apex84:
Same thing happens to me from time to time, doesn't matter which ROM/kernel combination I use. It even happens on a fresh stock ROM installation.

Removing the battery and then holding the power button down for ~15 seconds and then doing a full charge without turning the phone on seems to help.

I have virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2 and its doubled my battery. It does not cause a drain for me
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaineO:
I recently repartitioned my kindle fire, but for reasons I wanted to change the partitions to how they once were. When I ran the <parted> print command I noticed that the cache partition was unlisted but I could still see how much space was allotted to it. I went ahead and tried to repartition it again and I got a message in command prompt that said "can't have overlapping partitions. Is that a problem if so is there a way I can fix it?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
FFF versions 1.1 and greater have a "fastboot oem format" option that will restore the original partition table, but I have no idea how destructive the command might be. Hope for the best, but I'd plan for the worst by reflashing everything... starting with the bootloader. Even if it doesn't destroy your data, you might have some corruption anyway when you lay a new partition table over existing data.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaineO:
Just in case my data does get destroyed, Can i somehow minimize the damage by ie. backing up the data and putting it somewhere outside the Kindle Fire? Also have you known anyone to do this procedure with positive results?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Well, lucky for you... I just ruined my partition table while experimenting with the /sdcard partition. I used the oem format to rewrite the partition table and it didn't affect the existing data, but my partition table had always been stock. I just think you might be in a different situation if you played around with it before and now you are going to rewrite the partition table over the modified storage area. I'm not sure what's going to happen in your case. I was just suggesting that you play it safe and rebuild your system completely. Make a backup with your recovery program, copy it to your computer. Actually... you might as well copy over the contents of your /sdcard. Better safe than sorry.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaineO:
You're right, thank you for the help. I'll post my results when I finish it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamR:
Hi all,

Since I upgraded my SGS2 to ICS my Wi-Fi Direct refusing to work properly. I can find my other devices but can't send files etc...

Did someone get Wi-Fi Direct working properly with ICS ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
I have used it a couple times on ICS and it worked fine.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doclorenzo:
Exactly the same problem here, stock ics lpq rom..

Have tried transferring files between sgs2 and a Samsung 10.1 tab running honeycomb and like you I can connect but not transfer..

Hopefully Samsung will update to 4.0.4 and fix some of the (many) bugs in ics, within the nearest future..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
I had tried two ICS roms so far as we lose over 100mb in useable ram going from gingerbread to ice cream sandwich. Just wondering if all of the ICS roms are like that or not?

Any idea why we lose 100mb? I'd really like to have it back :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lmike6453:
It seems like that RAM is being allocated to integrated graphics and I did notice this across the board between dagr8's and smartguys port of team perfection ROMS.

Subscribed for more information, good question if we can change allocation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Of course all of the ics roms will have the same amount of usable ram. They all use the same kernel, the stock kernel in the leak, cause without source it's pretty much going to stay that way.

I don't get the obsession with usable ram... It's Android, free ram is wasted ram. Stop worrying and let the lmk do its job.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryandelman:
There's this misconception that used RAM = slower, laggier performance and that also is not the case.

People need to check their Windows PC conceptualization of RAM usage at the door.

-Ryan
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] EvoXOhio:
you are correct. Samsung dedicated more ram to the video card, which is probably to fix the black crush and gradient issues that are in the stock rom. Apparently the video ram allocated in gingerbread cant drive this monstrous display like they thought.

it does suck losing it, because its just that much less left for multitasking, but it fixed the display issues so its a good trade off for me.

also, this issue is not in android devices with tegra 3. With tegra 3 the video card has dedicated video ram, meaning that a 1gb android device shows 1 gb of total ram since its not shared with the video card. This is great because it means better multitasking because more apps stay in memory.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
The obsession with usable ram is smoothness, it makes a difference, if it didn't why aren't we still all using 512mb phones?

Once the ram is filled up swapping has to occur, when this happens cpu cycles and flash read/write cycles are introduced and they slow down your experience..

Losing 100mb of ram is a big deal, its over 33% of available ram for me. And it does effect performance unfortunately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] klee2000:
It feel totally makes a difference, I have been complaining about this issue for the longest and all I hear is that it doesn't do anything to our phone. If it doesn't do anything why do I keep getting a message that states that I have no more ram and that it will close everything to free up ram. This is one thing that I really don't like about Android, I sure hope that this changes in the future, because no matter how much ram is installed on our phone we will always have an issue because we cant control what apps we can fully close..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jimmer411:
100=1000/3? You might want to double check that one.

No matter how many tabs I open in chrome, along with beautiful widgets and Facebook, 2 email accounting syncing and Engadget, joystick, reddit and XDA apps running I never take a performance hit.

My advice is to spend less time running quadrant, your rams are being out to good use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] EvoXOhio:
I think he meant 1/3 of free ram. Typically a stock gingerbread from had 320-350mb free ram.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
Correct.. I lost 100mb or so of free ram, which forces the phone to swap more often. If we lost it to help the video card then that's fine, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something else.

Maybe with an official build of ICS the sluggishness will be better...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tmb993:
Interesting point here... I saw a screen shot of an international Note on ICS and the max free RAM was at 803 MB. Maybe its just an issue with our ics leak that we have so little free RAM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tagmwar:
Been doing some testing on this. It appears that limiting the background applications to three returns the free memory back to gb levels. Been testing this all day with my objection rom, and my used memory has not gone above 472 used with 3 background applications running. That leaves plenty of room to run my games in the forground or office applications. Phone has been running smooth and with out error.

In objection rom to limit the back ground applications. Settings /development options / limit back ground process.

Also been looking at my wife's nexus with non rooted ics. Her phone shows 728 Meg of available ram. Not sure why our leaked version is showing only 656.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] freemeech:
Thanks! after reading this post...I went into the ICS settings on Unofficial ROM and set the settings to 3 background and kill apps on exit..it improved A LOTTTTT....Ive been lurking a long time and this is the best advice I have read!

In serious terms, I think there were not any serious problems with SGS2? SGS1 had problems with GPS and crappy file system. I think my Transformer Prime has worse problem after the latest update.

I have both phones and the only true success has been the original GT-I9100, never had any problem and still take great pictures. The i9100, however, is a real piece of crap. It should never have left the production line! Camera sucks in all aspects apart from bright sunny day. And the echo problem is still annoying the hell out of everyone. SEC never fixed either of these issues. In fact they still pretend they don't exist. I didn't bother to link to any of the hundreds of threads here on XDA about these problems.

Hi,

i read many times that people like sense, because of the great email app.

Although i like the look of it, i miss some very important feateres, that the somehow cluttered Gmail-app does give me.

Both the Gmail app and Outlook show me conversations. The sense app doesn´t. If i want to check what i ansered, i have to go to the sent folder and search for it.

If i haven´t answered yet, it´s going to be a long search, whether in Gmail or Outlook i can see right away that i haven´t answered yet.

Second thing is that i get Outlook attachments as winmail.dat. i know it´s an Outlook-Richtext issue, but the Gmail app can deal with it, most of the time.

Somehow i´m not a fan of the Gmail app. I find it cluttter.

So i wonder if i have missed something with the praised sense email app.

I also tried K9, but it doesn´t work with conversations either.

thx, nearly

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Martin Quinn:
Hi there,

I noticed the back and search physical buttons on my HTC Desire were not working so I rebooted it. However, it now goes straight to the fastboot white screen (or hboot if I power on with vol down) but none of the physical buttons (vol or power) appear to work - I can't select any options. This happens whether the SD card is in or not.

Hboot recognises when I plug a usb cable in (says 'HBOOT USB PLUG').

Can anyone help? Given that I can't actually do anything with the phone I guess I need a PC-based solution - I'm running linux mint 12. I'm willing to try anything at this point as my only other option is to get a new phone!

details are:

BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.001

MICROP-051d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

I was running Nick's Phone V1.2 Based on Oxygen 2.3.2, with the Thalamus 2.6.35.14_r4 kernel.

Like I say, everything was running fine till the back/search button stopped working and I rebooted.

I'd be very grateful for any help/advice!

Cheers,

Martin

A bit more info - when I start it up in HBOOT with the sd card in (but not without it), after about 10 seconds a message flashes up really quickly relating to:

PB99IMG.zip .... no image or wrong image!

...so I guess I need to get this zip file on there somehow.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Martin

More info: the message that flashes up is:

SD Checking ...

Loading...[PB99DIAG.zip]

No image!

Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]

No image or wrong image!

Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]

No image!

Loading...[PB99IMG.nbh]

No image or wrong image!

I tried putting a new PB99IMG.zip on a fresh sd card and starting HBOOT with that - it flashes but then I'm still stuck at the HBOOT screen with no norking buttons/way to select anything. Suppose I need the other .zip and .nbh files.
