hmmm still no dice...

I was hoping someone would have chimed in by now. I still don't think my internal memory is fried, but I can't find where the internal memory is mapped. Even my "vold.fstab" file looks funny to me:

# cat vold.fstab
## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab

## Regular device mount

## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

There is no such locaton /devices/..." in my directory so why is this fstab points there????

At this point I'm still searching where the Eugene No Brick Rom got installed. Hopefully, once I find that out, I can reformat the drive and be able to install stock ROM.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasinMyTail:
Not one answer so far? I wonder if the developers and people in the know even read the Q & A forum.

Spend more time today and tried to follow this post: !SOLVED! Vibrant Internal Memory application storage 0b, please help! but it didn't help. After every ROM install I keep getting the same error message:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
No such file or directory

What confuses me is that any of these ROMs install at all if I'm having problem with my internal memory? Where are they being installed?

Help please!!! I have no more hair to pull

Have you tried Odining?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
I have had Dan_Brutal's original Vibrant at my house for the last few months, with this exact same problem. The only firmware, I have tried them all, that it will boot with is Eugene's JK2 package. I have it linked over in my RootzWiki ICZen thread, its worth a shot to flash it and see if it boots, however, when Dans boots up with that firmware, it reports a corrupt sd and is basically unusable.

I have done everything to this phone, flashed every firmware out there, tried repartitioning in recovery, even built custom Heimdall and Odin packages that work fine on mine, nothing will boot. I also tried the reparted technique, which is worth looking into, you might have better success with it. You can follow the reparted steps, but using the Vibrant specific partition structure, and it might work. It didn't on Dan's, I ran it and matched my partitions, and nothing.

If you need the stock partition mapping, let me know and I'll dig it up for you. Its probably faster to contact me on RW, I'm not over here very much anymore. And you are right, we rarely read Q&A, lol.

Thanks for taking time to reply. My only two options are to try and use an external SD card or return ti to Samsung for repair. It pains me to say it, but I'm going to try and return it to Samsung and see how much they will charge me to fix it. I have already spend over 30 hours trying to fix this thing.

If Samsung wants and arm and a leg to fix it, I will probably got back to your idea of partitioning an external SD card and use that as phone's internal memory.

Thanks chasin

P.S. I'll keep the thread going for a few more weeks until I come to a solution.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvercrown266:
Im wondering what's the difference of this error with the "Encryption Error" bug...

My phones internal sd is inacessible bacause of Encryption Bug that's said to be coming from early ICS Roms. Right now im running on a fix, using the external sd. The fix is posted here in Q & A.

Nice seeing you here Br1cK'd!

I know u can't resist to help.

Luv your IC Zen 1.7
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasinMyTail:
gshmod known

The symptoms may be the same (unusable internal memory) but the cause is different. I was running Froyo not ICS when the problem started and I never got the encryption error.

I guess at the end of the day, the basic question I was rying to find was:

Is there a way to test the internal memory and determine if it is faulty?

If Eugene No Brick Rom is installed, where is being installed if the internal memory is bad?

If Samsung is asking too much money to fix my phone, by backup plan is to use the external card.

Thanks chasin
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasinMyTail:
Here is an update to the thread. I just checked Samsung repair status and it saus the following:

*05/16/2012//11:38:50//0001773863//Telephone//ASC*
2012-05-16 ?? 10:38-JaeSung Ko: The unit has left the technician. SOLUTION: Replaced PBA

Looks like they had to replace the main board on the phone. I hope that means I was right and it was a hardware problem. Although I wished there was a way to test that. Hopefully I'll get my phone next week and close this thread.

chasin

P.S. I need to figure out how to update the a thread as solved when I'm done.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasinMyTail:
Solved

I finally got my phone from Samsung and they did replace the mainboard on the phone. I would like to think that it confirmed my suspicions that it was a hardware problem, not just a software corruption.

Total cost it was about $70 which included shipping both ways and part replacement. This was a pleasant surprise, considering the phone was out of warranty. It makes me feel good about my decision to skip those phone protection plans (which have a $50 deductible and ~$5 a month), but I'm usually careful with my phones.
[HTC One X] xshauryax:
Hi Everyone,

I am facing an unusual issue. Tried searching a lot if anyone else is facing anything similar, but I guess I'm the only one.

I've been trying to use the WiFi hotspot feature since a last few days, but it doesnt work properly. When I scan for wifi networks from any other device, it shows the wifi name of my portable hotspot. On entering password and everything, it says connected. Now, when I try to access internet on the wifi device, it doesnt work. The data arrows on my One X do flash, but there is no data received at the wifi device end.

I've tried to use my portable hotspot with following devices (one at a time) till now: PS Vita (wifi only), the new iPad (iPad3, wifi only), and my sister's HP laptop. Same problem with all three devices.

I've tried following settings as well:

1) Using default SSID with no password

2) Using default SSID with password (both WEP and WPA)

3) Changing SSID to something else, with and without password protection

Internet (3G), otherwise, is working perfectly fine on my HTC One X, in fact i am able to receive emails and access internet on my phone during the wifi hotspot activated and devices connected to my phone.

I have the latest OTA update (for India) installed on my phone, i.e. 1.28.720.10

The problem was there before also (previous firmware), and after the recent OTA update, it still remains.

Can anyone help me get rid of this issue? Or maybe suggest some workarounds.

There's one thing that i'm planning to do...i saw a post on xda forum where someone has posted apk files for all preinstalled apps on HTC One X. I can try an install the wifi hotspot app again, maybe that works.
[HTC One X] jazznaura:
got the same problem here, have u found a solution?
[HTC One X] liehuo:
Try using this: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta14.apk

hi,

thanks liehuo but already tried it with no luck.

ok got this sorted, was about to try vincepg13 suggestion when saw under settings option to reset apn settings to default, never changed them but thought would give it a go and it did the trick :D

[HTC One X] Armaitus:
Shared networks

I had exactly the same issue with my T-Mobile HTC One X - after years of successful WiFi hotspot use with my old HTC Desire.

Whilst investigating the APN setting suggestions posted here I noticed that I was actually connected to the T-Mobile Orange network and not the T-Mobile network.

I switched to plain old T-Mobile and a moment later my laptop reported internet connectivity. Go figure.

I never had that problem on the Desire but at least I have a few workarounds now... thanks for the advice everybody.

Hi

i am using one x(India) ....i hv got the same problem..!

is their a setting for laptop i should do ? becuase hotspot is working in other device.

help would be really appreciated.

Thanks

PS laptop is HP DV6000 series.
[HTC One X] dzhoshkun:
I do have a similar problem with hotspot.

the hotspot icon will not appear after switching it on but i can still see the hotspot from my laptop and connect to it, but there is no internet.

I have tried to rename the name to "Consumer Broadband" but it`s the same.

Do i need to delete the old VPN and make the new one?

I`m not rooted yet.
[HTC One X] scuttlefield:
FYI: Tethering/hotspot doesn't work with IPv6 yet

I know this problems is solved, but for other that may find this helpful...I was having some similar issues. Using the hotspot, I could connect my phone to my tablet but it wasn't connecting to the internet. My problem was that I had set up an IPv6 APN on my phone and didn't realize that tethering/hotspot does not work on IPv6 yet. I switched back to the default APN and it works fine.
[HTC One X] rajdori:
not working on one s with new apn

Created new with new apn "consumer broadband" but with same settings as tmobile apn. My tablet connects but It always takes me to tmobile Page asking me to take tmobile WiFi hotspot service at 15$ a month. How do I avoid going to tmobile Page?
[HTC One X] ali.mirk:
Followed your suggestions, my Atrix2 hotspot works gr8 :good: thx
[HTC One X] Rikmano:
Hi Vincepg13,

I also have had this problem, but since I read your post regarding changing the APN (Access Point Names) setting to the name 'Consumer Broadband' it has allowed me to use the Wi-Fi Hotspot feature on my Branded T-Mobile UK HTC One X device. I am so grateful for your diagnostic for this situation that really was a nuisance. I feel at ease that I can finally use my device to tether with other device which have Wi-Fi Only or do not have a Mobile Data on-board. My One X has a new use that I had on a previous HTC device, so glad I can use it effectively.

Advice for others who are doing this make sure you spell the 'Consumer Broadband' correctly and I would highly recommend that you take screen shots of the current APN, so you can match all the settings correctly. Also do not delete the current APN, if you do take Sim card out of tray, restart your phone and replace the Sim card, it should automatically set up a APN for your network. Furthermore this should also work for all other UK networks. I can not confirm for other countries because I am from the United Kingdom.

Once again thank you to Vincepg13. :good:

I've tried several Bluetooth headsets with Groove IP on the Transformer - they don't work correctly. It does work with a headset that has a mic though. Without headset/mic the person I have called cannot hear me well. I've only used a couple of times as a quick solution while my phone charged, it works but it's not really practical.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Toast95135:
The Transformers mic is pretty terrible (although seems better on ICS) so you're better off using another mic.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] RascalDoc:

I was sort of doing this as a test of what I can do without a phone account. I don't plan on cutting my service but have a phone I'm setting up for my Lady so she can get a lot of the benefits of the net, without a 100 a month phone plan. It drives her nuts. So the transformer seemed to me to be the perfect platform to try and ...... if in a pinch while traveling and my phone dies (although I carry extra batteries etc) it might be good. I called a buddy in California the other day and his hearing is as bad as mine (we were both around artillery for awhile) and he thought I was calling from a hard wired phone!@!!!! +1 for transformer and a wired headset....:p:D

Hello all xda's members , It's my first post but I know a lot of things about this forum and about Motorola Defy ...

I've got something very strange , after a long time that I used Miui Rom ..

Suddenly , last week My Defy doesn't snow me if it's charging ( but still charge untill 97% ) and doesn't want to connect via USB . I've tried with 3 cables and nothing work .

Charging problem it's not too big because it's works , but no connect to USB .

And .. this is the strange thing :

I've connected to PC via USB in bootloader ( Power button + up volume ) and it seems to be allright .. BUT !! WITHOUT BATTERY !!! JUST PLUGGED TO USB PC !!! AND DON'T RECOGNIZE RSD LITE :(( USB MASS STORAGE OR EVERYTHING !

And it snows that " Battery OK " .. What's wrong with my phone ?!

Please help me , I need a quickly answer :( Tell me if it's a hardware problems .. That's what I think :(

Thx all .
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackergnome:
is this windows?

i have similar issues... windows doesn't detect my phone neither in mass storage nor bootloader... but USB debug is working... I can do adb...

however in Linux my phone works correctly... and I can also flash using sbf_flash in Linux...

seems to be driver issues for me...

It says MTP device driver not found...
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoEndless:
Yes , it's windows , but I replaced drivers and still not work .. I'm not sure if that's software problem .

It's normally if I pull out battery ( connected via USB ) and phone still work ?( without restart ) And if I pull in battery and disconnect from pc still work without restart ? ..

And charging problem : my phone doesn't snow me that it's charging .. only if I go to settings /system / Battery settings ( say it's discharging ) I see how increase energy level O.o ..

What's wrong ? :( I've got this problem again a long time ago , it was drop from charge a few seconds , and didn't charge .

Maybe can be this problem because I used it underwater a few times . After that , I had lot of water inside , didn't want to charge and connect USB .. after I used a hair dryer and pull out water , everything works fine :(

Any reason ?!:mad:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
Thanks Wood for chiming in about the solution in my Miui guide.

Now adrianp89, what you are experiencing is what is known as a "soft brick". Keep in mind that if your device were to be truly "bricked", it would not respond or show any sign of life whatsoever. Luckily there is simple remedy for the issue you have. Just follow these steps ripped straight from my guide (the one Wood mentioned) to get your phone back up and running...

Now that your phone is working again, treat yourself with some delicious Ice Cream Sandwich! My choice of dessert being ICZenwich. Then, if you feel like it, give a big ol' tap on Wood's, dseldown's, and my THANKS button to show your gratitude. :)
