Ha no offense taken from the user error comment at all, I have a software/hardware engineering degree but there is always new stuff to learn.

I did have the debugging enabled (i dev in my free time) but it never effected connecting. So . . .

unplugged all connections

disabled debugging

uninstalled driver

rebooted

reinstalled driver

connected device via USB

still just charging

I had an idea though... this UX31 does have a feature called sleep-n-charge(allows laptop to be closed and still charge usb devices plugged into it). I did a clean windows7 install to dismiss the bloatware, but i DID reinstall this sleep-n-charge feature. I'm about to try removing this and see how it handles the i777 after that...

any other thoughts?

EDIT: No kies has ever been on this pc. HATE KIES. LOL

Google this...Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones v1.4.8.0 I also have an ASUS. This worked for me. Hope this takes care of your problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] robpaulson:
I honestly couldnt find a download for that driver anywhere. all the uploads were removed due to policy breaches or something. are you working with the ultrabook line? because most of the hardware is rather different than other models.

I did see a realtek USB driver, which i thought might have been causing some kind of issue ( no clue if it was even the 'driver' for this usb port... i doubt it ). Anyway I removed it, rebooted, installed latest samsung driver (v1.5.4.0), rebooted. NOTHING. Still just sits and charges...

Completely lost. This is killing me because something i did is KILLING my battery life, i need to charge it constantly all day and I really wanted to go to CM9 ngihtlies.

I guess i shuld just bluetooth xfer the files... but i'm pretty butt hurt that i cant use a usb...

[Nook Touch General] Strider S:
Hey guys, if I make a thread placement error or a stupid remark, don't mind me. This is my first post on XDA.

The other day I wanted to root my nook. I failed, and now it is stuck in a 48 hour long booting up process. It just finally stopped going through the dots on bottom of the screen, so I am dissapointed.

I just want to restore it to factory settings, me, my family, and tech nerd neighbors couldn't get it to work. I now am looking for a software method, such as reinstalling the default OS.

Please, help me!

I now see that there are many threads about this already. No need for this!
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
There are a couple of ways to root. What exactly did you do?

Does it boot up now, with or without root?

I tried touchnooter recently, and the first time, it did not work so well (never flashed to black). But I could get in. I did a factory reset, and redid it, and it seems to have rooted fine (although I still see the read forever on bootup).

Oh and look at

[Nook Touch General] jebradl:
I also have a problem

I used touchnooter 2-1-31 to root my nook simple touch which had 1.1.0 installed at the time. I did not make a backup of the default settings, as I did not find a way to do it with linux at the time (though I have seen one since).

My NST seems to be missing something with the touchnooter install. When started from having been shut off, it boots to the ADW page, but when adbWireless is touched, I get an error message that I need root access. Although I have wi-fi enabled, and am logged into my router, I don't go anywhere when using the opera browser. It's as if it's not getting the DNS from my router, because BN sites seem to be OK. It automatically upgraded to 1.1.2 recently.

When I have a book open, I have the small icon at the mid-right margin, which opens the shadowed icons. When I touch the home icon, I go to the ADW page. If I touch the book icon at the top left of the screen, I go back to the book that I was reading, but to the first page, instead of the page that I was reading. I can open the library listing, touch the book that I was reading, and go back to the page that I was reading.

What do I need to do to get it fully functional?

Does n2T-Recovery work with 1.1.2?

Thank you.
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
Use my TouchFormatter, also on my sig.

It will return everything to stock and update to 1.1.

n2T-Recovery works with any system version, just remember to do a manual reset and update your nook to the latest version as you will have a 1.0 system, if you decide to use it.
[Nook Touch General] cbay:
Are you using Opera Mini or Opera Mobile. Opera Mini does

not work for me, but Opera Mobile does.

[Nook Touch General] jebradl:
No idea

I have no idea as to which browser. I went to the ADW desktop, used 'add' to add a 'custom shortcut' and selected 'browser', which was the only one there.

I don't know anything about marketplace, and never saw anything about registering my gmail account. I have absolutely no android experience, as I still use a palm treo phone (I can't get 3g of 4g where I live, and I'm not going to pay an extra $30/mo for dialup speed.) I'd gladly upgrade to an android phone if I could get basic phone service and use wi-fi for the internet, but all the phone service providers are going to stick you with a data plan, even if you can't use it through their system.

I did use n2T-Recovery_0.1.rar, which did indeed take me back to 1.0.1, but not to the factory install. It still boots to ADW. So, I guess I should use n2T-Recovery_0.2.rar and replace the /boot partition.
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
Boot partition has nothing to do here. N2t triggers factory restore you also need to do a reset to restore data, you only restored the system partition.

Do it manually or use my touchformatter zip (not for the glow edition) to restore reset and upgrade.

To do a reset (reset /data partition):

Use on settings, device, Erase and Deregistered to wipe /data

(If it doesn’t let you, force it shutting down your nook, then starting it up, and when the screen flickers press right and left bottom buttons, hold for 5+ seconds).
[Nook Touch General] jebradl:
No change using n2T-Recovery_0.2.rar

I tried n2T-Recovery_0.2.rar, and it did nothing different to my nook. It still boots to the ADW screen.

0.2 tells me that it's restoring the boot partition when it boots, but doesn't go through the restoring the default settings when rebooted. 0.1 goes through the restoring the default settings with the boot, but it still boots to the ADW screen and not the standard nook reader screen. It did change it back to 1.0.2 from 1.1.2.
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
Man.... told you two times, you need to do a data reset, /boot partition has nothing to do here, and /system has already been restored, follow the instructions on my previous post.
[Nook Touch General] jebradl:
Thank you for the emphasis!

Thank you for emphatically pointing out that I'd missed the earlier posts. I had missed the first post telling me that I needed to do a data reset, because I only saw the last message asking if I was using Mini or Mobile, and then posted again without reading the messages. So, after the last post that told me that I'd been told twice, I looked back at all the messages. Thank you.

So I now have run the n2T-Recovery-0.1 program, deregistered the NST back to the default settings, updated to 1.1.2 software, and run touchnooter-2.1.31 to root the NST. It has proceeded as I'd expected from previous descriptions, but I still have a problem. I can't get it to take my current gmail address. Is there some way to change the google settings after installation, if I choose to create a new account?
[General Questions and Answers] mhca:
Hi guys

I know this question has been asked many times before... whether to fully charge before using the phone the first time.

I believe this is something which stems from the time before Lithium-ion batteries.

However, I wonder if there is something with the battery stats which will be affected by turning on the phone before completely charging the phone?

In CWM there is a Wipe battery stats function... I was thinking if this was deleting some sort of info about the battery which was created the first time the phone is installed....

Some battery stats/calibration or similar is the only thing I can imagine which would benefit from having a full charge before first use. Can somebody enlighten me?

My girlfriend will be buying a new phone tomorrow (HTC Sensation on sale), and I would like to know first if their are any benefits to charging before first use?

Please don't just guess or come with comments like "I just used mine right away, no problems".

Thanks in advance.

BR, Martin

Dont need any calobration soft or fully charged battery. Use it as you need.mentioned soft for calibration is needed when you flash device with new Rom to reset old settings :)

[General Questions and Answers] icepally:
Fully charging the battery, without intermittently taking it off the charger, running it down fully, then recharging it fully is the best thing to do.
[General Questions and Answers] MissionImprobable:
It needs a full charge before the first use so that the phone will understand what a full charge is but that's about it.
[General Questions and Answers] mhca:
"to reset old settings". When are these settings created? I'm thinking if the original battery settings are created at first boot on a brand new phone.

How does the phone understand what a full charge is? Does it create some battery settings file at first boot?

If not, then I guess fully charging could be done while the phone is being used by the user?

I haven't become more certain from the above answers... I still don't know if the phone somehow does a calibration to the fully charged battery which could be a reason for charging it before first boot.
[General Questions and Answers] mArtinko5MB:
no offence, but this is bull****. This treatment of battery was good for old mobiles and absolutelly not neccessary for smartphones. Don't mess with him. I didn't fully charged battery in first use, now on my gt 540 with optimized 2.3.7 can get 5 day on battery !

Don't be confused by battery settings, they are stored in system, you mustn't bother with that.

Fully charged means 100% shown on status bar, nothing more nothing less. System know how to treat battery, no need for calibration(it's needed only when changing ROM -> new system -> new treat -> need to reset old settings)

Your only task with battery is, once a month drain her to 0% and charged to 100% without abortion (but also not neccessary), and charging mainly when 30-40% of battery. It's not recommended to go under there values for good life of battery

Regards
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
I agree.

Fully charging and discharging was a practice to deal with the memory effect of older NIMH or NICD batteries.

Putting unnecessary charge cycles on todays cell batteries, just lessens their lifetime. They all offer an amount of charge cycles and each cycle reduces their capacity. The detailed amount of chargecycles that is sometimes in some infos, is usually something like after X amount of charge cycles the battery reaches 80% of its original capacity.

I'm not sure but i would guess that the phones determine the charge status through hardcoded characteristics of the used battery type, i.e. voltage dropoff etc. Fully charged at 4.22V, etc etc.

The batteries in our phones don't come fully charged is probably because storing these types of batteries at full charge for too long actually hurts them.

Storing them at something like ~3.8V is recommended for longer periods.

I'm no expert on this topic, so tell me if you find something wrong in my statement :-), i'm eager to learn.
[General Questions and Answers] wesblake:
Already proven

I wish I could find the article, but there was an experiment run on lithium ion batteries, particularly based on proliferation of mobile and these exact questions, where they ran down/recharged in different scenarios (different discharge percentages) until the battery went bad. They determined that the more you charge (the less you let it drain before re-charging), the more cycles your battery lasts. So it's as some have said, exact opposite of an old NiXX tech. This was done to < 10% increments, so they showed even a decrease in cycles between recharging at 95% and 90%

Moral of the story, don't let you're battery drain completely or even get too low, and charge as often as you can. This is why I use a dock on my desk at work.

Paid unlock

Only way for most Xperia's is a paid method. No you can't do it for free.

Try a site like http://unlock-bootloader.com/ you send a contact form on the website, they got back to me within 24 hours, cost is $24 USD, and they're really great in walking you through it. Basically you download a set of tools provided by them, power off your phone, and bridge a point in the back with a paper clip. (they give you pictures on how to do this) after which they remotely unlock it.

This DOES void your warranty, so make sure you're sure. I personally did it, tried a few custom ROMS and went back to stock (rooted). No disrespect to the ROM devs, but I find most too buggy for day to day use, and the Sony skin has been growing on me.

Sorry to beat this dead horse but I believe this issue is new..

When taking a photo outdoors, with a bright sky and dark subject, the bright area bleeds over into the dark and causes a hazy effect. I believe this might be due to a reflection off the chrome bezel or plastic lens cover. example: http://i.imgur.com/70oG7.jpg

Has anyone else noticed this? I've spent the past few weeks in washington/oregon with this phone and sooo many shots have been ruined this way.

Edit: I believe it is a problem with reflections off the chrome bezel and the plastic lens cover, maybe along with the lens having no hood cover as the body is so thin. Using my other hand to shade the lens while taking pictures seems to fix the issue.

could be. i've notice this as well. a few things work for me. actually wiping the lens to make sure there are no smudges that could cause reflection. also putting the cam in macro mode.

I'm at the public library and the wi-fi on my g2x says its connected but there is no internet. The signal's excellent but no internet connection whatsoever. I have tried battery pull & reboot but that doesn't do anything. Also forgot the network, turn off wifi, and reboot, but it doesnt work out either. Can anyone show me the steps on how to resolve thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noobletsausecakebbq:
Step 1: disconnect from library wifi

Step 2: connect to reliable wifi
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pio_masaki:
Well for one, are you sure that wifi offers internet access? Not every wifi has internet available to it. Next, how are you testing for internet? Some free wifi require you to open a browser and read a agreement of some sort before it allows you through. In that case just connecting then launching tapatalk would show as no internet, even if there is. Being a library wifi I imagine you need to log in first via browser.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Xura08:
I've had this same problem before. If you can rule out options like battery pull or any other trick then I would suggest using the wifi recovery app on the market (not sure if thats the name or not). It fixed mine. Well, it fixed THAT issue.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DannySmurf:
Rogers sells combination sim/micro sim cards. If you get one of those, and carefully cut out the larger sim piece, it makes an excellent adapter. I found that the plastic ones you can buy elsewhere would tend to get stuck in the phone and require a scary amount of force to get out.

so confused :confused: ... can anyone guide me please

I would be the same as you, after all what is the reason for someone to sell these phones on ebay.

Have you not thought about buying one from a place like amazon or some place like it that sells new phones with guarantees.
[HTC One X] shadowboy23:
Well honestly if you want to get the quad core model, get it from a reputable seller. This HTC One X seems pretty good. They ship worldwide too. But as long as your prepared to send it away if it does have defects then you are good to go. From what I've seen the units that came from china seems to be the one that has more defects compared to units that are made from Taiwan of Singapore. That seller on eBay gets his stock from Singapore.

PS

Always check their return policy before you buy.

they all says that the item is new and never opened, but, even if it's new how you will handle the replacements :( ...

[HTC One X] shadowboy23:
Like you said contact the seller and ask them about replacement if the screen has a fault and what are their procedures of replacing the unit.

Do they have to send it away first for checking before they give you a new one? Ask them specific questions about your concerns. And if you're not happy then don't get one from them. Shop around and see who has the best return policy for faulty units.

you are not stuck with anything you buy if it isn't what you thought you were getting or expected for your money. buy it, and if it's not right, then get your money back. the only time you can't do that is if you bought something with cash off of a street corner. ;p
