[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jivel:
Im considering upgrading as phone contract is due up soon but £612 is cheapest price in uk with a 2 year contract so I may hold off for a while to see if price drops much. Still very much enjoying my i9000 with slimice rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riso123:
Where did you pull that from? I just pre ordered my upgrade with o2 in the UK. Phone is free and my contract is about £5 cheaper, only problem is its a 2 year contract as you say...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sargasso:
640K ought to be enough for everybody...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jivel:
I havent ordered one but the cheapest UK deal Ive seen is at buymobilephones, stock expected 30th May. Best mobile comparison site is http://www.comparemobiledeals.com/mobile-phones/Samsung/Galaxy-S3 Im considering waiting until Im in the US soon to see if I can pick one up a bit cheaper. Will need to be unlocked though which will no doubt be a bit more pricey. Havent made my mind up.:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riso123:
Check out the carphone warehouse. vodafone give the handset for free on a two year contract... o2 will also match that...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jivel:
Thanks, I've been keeping an eye on the deals and trying to get my network to match the ones Ive seen. Often the best deals seem to be reserved for new customers (im currently with o2) but Ill try again tomorrow. Mobiles (which I think are owned by cpw) have a tempting deal on talkmobile 300 mins, unlimited texts, 1 gb data works out £30.71 per month but you gotta put a lotta cash upfront to buy the phone.

I may wait it out.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaynpayn:
Not too inclined to upgrade. I'm actually happy samsung didn't discard the home/touch buttons yet, i find this set of buttons perfect (the missing search one is useless anyway and i find it very practical to wake my phone from the frontal button). I'm not too thrilled about pentile but not gonna fuss about that, at least until i see it. I may yet change my mind when i see one but from the pictures i find the phone rather ugly - it's way too stretched/tall and that oval shape isn't working for me the least. That's kind of a dealbreaker if you think there are plenty of options playing in the same league showing up frequently and only more will come.

But what really breaks it for me is the fact my SGS is still plenty for just about anything i throw at it. There is little any other phone can do my SGS can't I'm referring to useful stuff, not talking about NFC no one uses yet and probably won't fly with people either. I also don't NEED my phone looking me in the eyes to not shut screen off, i can manage that much :D

All in all, the SGS is still a superb phone, battery lasts for the day, phone flies with the latest ICS custom roms (getting beter by the minute), boss-level audio quality, gorgeous screen with perfect size (i love reading, browse a lot and find it perfect), runs just about any game/app i throw at it (although i'm not even a phone-gamer), has a very decent camera (even without flash), brilliant bluetooth interface with my car (media streaming, loudspeaker, etc) is highly customized to my needs, i actually find it good looking AND can even place phone calls and sms's :D

So no, i will most likely not upgrade anything unless something completely unplanned happens.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avetny:
Guys my 3 dots on the right side of the phone is silver, not gold.

(My phone is GSM. And phone made in

Fabrique au Vietnam par Samsung)

what this might mean?

regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FredFS456:
So your phone is made in Vietnam. Maybe upload a pic of the pogo pins that you say are silver? It would probably have no effect whatsoever, just that they tweaked the design a bit/used different parts...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avetny:
thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jauhari:
What's 3 Dots for? and how to use it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonfish:
They are called pogo pins, and when they make contact with a compatible accessory, they charge on contact. So far, Samsung hasn't really taken advantage of the technology, with the exception of a desktop dock, which only really saves you the trouble of inserting and removing a regular charger cable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jauhari:
Any URL information about The Dock? And where we can buy it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brandonfish:
I can't post an outside link as a new member, but if you search for "galaxy nexus pogo dock," you should be able to find it in a lot of places, including Samsung's website.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
I just installed UCLD2 Smooth ICE 5.0 followed his instructions and I like the Rom, but I have an issue. My home button and search button do not work at all. I've gone into the settings to see if there is anything to change what the buttons do, but I've found nothing.

Does anyone know what could be causing this? Or what I can do to fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] creedicd:
I had the same issue with flashing sky is. I did a nandroid recovery, then reflashed the whole thing and allowed the system to settle longer than the suggested 5 minutes. It works great now. Buttons are fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
Well as it turns out that was only one of a myriad of problems, I may or may not have permanantly bricked my phone. I let the system settle, but now the screen isn't very responsive when I try to do anything on it. I also tried returning to stock, and have had the same problems.

I don't have any idea what happened, but it seems to be like a kernel problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
If it turns on then its far from bricked. What was your method of returning to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
There's been way too much of this nonsense recently. You don't even know what a brick is. All the new guys need to stop flashing everything they can get their hands on. Stop and read before you do this stuff to your phone. I read for almost a whole month, everything I could find before doing anything. Before I even flashed anything, I had everything needed to fix and return to stock, and made sure I completely understood what I was doing. Read and understand before you break stuff so you can fix it!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
When most of us first installed the leak the fix was to install it again with the 1 click or factory reset.... Are you coming from stock gb or stock ics leak?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
I didn't flash whatever I could get my hands on thank you. I flashed NexusMod 4.3 Nexus UI first about a week and a half ago. Then I wanted to try and get something a little more like stock, but still ICS so after READING ALL THE INFORMATION on the post for ICS Smoothie v2 I flashed it after wiping data, cache, and dalvik and following the instructions regarding an ICS radio which I had not followed previously with Nexus Mod when I flashed it. Then the problems started.

There is no lockscreen even when the phone decides to work. When I start up the phone. Process.google.acore force closes as does process.google.gapps

Also when I unlock the phone the screen will respond to 1 maybe 2 swipes to find a homescreen then it'll hang.

I used ODIN to return to stock following the instructions on the Stickied post about doing so in the Development section. Also I'm sorry if some of what I said comes off rude I've just been trying to fix this for about 4 days with no luck and I really need some help.

Also I would've responded sooner, but it's finals week at my college so I've only got so much time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
Also I apologize for calling it a brick even though it was not. I do know what a brick is. It's when your device is unresponsive and will not turn on or do anything. It'a a paperweight or a brick.

I was freaking out my bad. I am sort of seasoned I was rooting my HTC Inspire when I got it almost a year ago, and I put ICS on it when the first leaks started coming out. I'm sorry I'm new to this phone. I will be getting better trust me. I just need some time to get used to the different quirks involved in this phone compared to my last one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
My suggestion still stands use the ics leak 1 click then root see how you like stock ics twiz if you want a more custom rom then goto cwm and wipe cache , factory reset, then in mounts wipe sys, wipe cache and wipe data do all of these 3 times before installing rom and kernel always let.it sit a few minutes to settle....

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
Ok I'm sorry for causing all of these issues I think I found a solution. In the General section and since I can't post links it is entitled:

[FIX] No Power Menu, No Lockscreen, Corrupt Efs FIX! Skyrocket and T989

Sorry I didn't look in General before posting this in Q&A the General section in the HTC Inspire forum wasn't usually gonna have fixes in it maybe root methods, but not fixes for stuff like this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
What radio did you flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CrazyLineman777:
I did realize I had done it wrong I flashed this: ATT-GALAXY-NOTE UCLC5 radio

but it was the one located in the post for Embryo 2.2 and I didn't flash the embryo rom, so the radio file which Mohan made specifically for his rom didn't go over well with the rom I flashed.

I did get back to stock eventually. It just took a few tries and the efs fix. I'm now putting CWM touch back on my phone and flashing a Gingerbread Rom because ICS on our phone is still a little too iffy for my likeing. I'll probably just wait till Samsung releases source for the kernel and cook my own rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I see, the note modem corrupts the efs partition. Glad you read some things and got it fixed!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhamster:
Hi,

The issue that I'm having is that my Galaxey S2 when unplugged from the charger still thinks that it is charging. I get an error saying that "Charging paused. Voltage to high" and then proceeds to drain my battery very quickly. Any ideas for how to solve this? I can't tell if its a hardware issue or a software one. Thanks.

[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ive read every thread and nothing seems to work...

ive done the internal and sd memory fixes but im still having a major issue, i was running clean rom de1.2 perfectly before i went and started the s-off procedure...now once i achieved s-off and i went to upgrade my rom to cleanrom de 1.3 i was getting the memory errors and reboots...went through the steps to fix the memory as i mentioned earlier and im still getting reboots when i receive txts or emails...normally id think this were a rom issue but ive tried some different roms...i thought i had the issues taken care of but now when i go to play some music it reboots plus im still getting reboots with sms and gmail...i froze gmail and have bought enough time to charge my phone to a decent ammount (have been working on this all morning), everything is current and have tried everything from wiping several times and re-installing the roms several times, all the fastboot and adb commands from the storage issues...flashed different kernels and even recoveries...i cant even stream music from my laptop and play it on the phone with out there being a reboot...i can send sms fine, it just appears to be receiving them is the issue...dont know if this is one problem or several...what information of my phone would you guys need to diagnose a problem...

im on:

Cleanrom DE 1.3 w/ 3.0.13 kernel

baseband v. 1.22.10.0310r 1.22.10.0308r

build 3.13.605.7 cl363816 release keys

hboot 2.21.2121

not sure what else to try...is there a method to getting back to bone stock so i can retry this whole thing again...im talking relocking the device and redoing all the htcdev crap/root/s-off/rom again

thank you very much in advance for any help
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Sounds like youre on old firmware. Flash the old firmware patch. If it doesn't help Flash the ruu. If you're s-off no need to relock at all. You'll need to have a Ph file for recovery unless you want to unlock
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ive flashed those several times...is there difference between them? the ones i flashed were from the clean rom folder after installing the rom
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Best thing to do is run a ruu then it wipes your phone clean.
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
I had the sd issues after s-off and I never did the editing to fix the issues all I did to fix them was reflash amon ra then reflashed my backup of cleanrom and reflashed the kernel and rebooted then let it startup and then pulled battery and then restarted the phone and everything was back to normal sd card issue fixed. Try that it might work. Oh and I took the jhboot when it asked when it asked if I wanted to install it.

Sent from my ICS Rezound
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ok the old firmware patch seems to have worked...i really hope so cuz ive just about exhausted my AD&B keys...
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ok so now that that has been taken care of, will it be smooth sailing from here on out? thanks for everything, especially the devs and hackers that made my headache even possible...

came from a droid x and that couldve been a hell of a device, wish there were an s-off equivalent to its ridiculous bootloader...but yeah loving the rezound dont even wanna return it even its mangled battery terminal...
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ok spoke too soon...the sms reboots are gone...i can make calls but now the memory is back to being a problem...both internal and sd are showing as non existent...so do i now run those memory fixes again? or just wipe and install the rom completely from scratch again?
[HTC Rezound] scotty1223:
youre prolly on an incompatible hboot(cant mix GB and ICS)

heres what id do:

-run the 3.13.605.07 RUU

-clear storage in hboot

-install the ics jpbear hboot,if desired

-install recovery

-fresh start cleanrom 1.3

i just did the above to go from 3.11/1.2 to 3.13/1.3 and i have absolutely no issues. its smooth,fluid,sd card is there,never rebooted. :)
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
im not supposed to relock for this am i? do i just flash in recovery like 605.1 ruu?
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
If you're s-off no need to relock
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ok flashed ruu and ran the kernel...now im getting the reboots again...wth
[HTC Rezound] scotty1223:
what did you do (in detail)?
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
installed ph98img.zip

wiped data cache dalvik

installed ruu twice before leaving recovery

rebooted...

reinstalled amon ra

everything seemed fine but now im back to not having any accessible memory on phone

im about to re-do the memory fixes and upgrade the hboot

if that doesnt work then i dunno
[HTC Rezound] scotty1223:
ive got no clue what youre talking about. ruus are flashed i hboot,not recovery. what ph98img did you install? :confused:

again,heres what id do:

-run the 3.13.605.07 RUU (not flash a rom)

-clear storage in

hboot

-install the ics jpbear hboot,if desired

-install recovery

-fresh start cleanrom 1.3 (wipe cache,dalvic,data/factory reset,system,boot) do not install old firmware patch.

follow those directions exactly,and you wont have prollems. if you dont know what something means,ask.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631830

thats not an ruu? i also followed the directions from team bamf website...

i just flashed rezrom s4 1.2...lets see how that goes
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
That's a Rom. A ruu installs everything. Radios, boot and everything else.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
despite many here misusing the term ruu, a ruu is an executable file run on a PC which does quite a bit more than a rom flash. Run one of the Ruu, out wit until Verizon releases a real ruu for ics, which hopefully will be Wednesday.
[HTC Rezound] DontPushButtons:
Despite however exceedingly helpful once again pointing out how many people "misuse" the term RUU may be.. This did not help him solve his problem in the slightest.

OP:

In the above instructions where he says "Run RUU":

-You will need to download the full ICS leak from android police or I believe there's a link here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631630

--There are instructions on that site on how to install the RUU.

Then follow the previous poster's instructions about installing a new hboot (if you want to, it is not required)

**EDIT: You do not NEED to do this, please only do it if you know what you're doing. I have had absolutely no reason to replace my hboot and I haven't had any issues.**

Then you will need to reinstall a custom recovery.

Then you can proceed with your wiping/flashing. I remember a previous poster saying to do a factory reset after updating to the new RUU. Not sure if it's required, but I did it and I'm not having any issues.

Hope this helps!
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
yeah thanks again and i found that original RUU im installing now...i wouldve updated my status earlier but the download took an hour or so...everything seems fine at the moment...its currently updating /system, but i did notice it relocked my device, and i still have s-off though...so my question is, do i need to worry about being locked if ive still got s-off?

UPDATE:

ive got a fully functioning phone now...thanks everyone for the assistance and patience...this has been the most critical mod ive done to any phone...dont know where it screwed up along the way but im gonna enjoy this for a while before i tamper with it again
[HTC Rezound] DontPushButtons:
Nope, I believe it's purely aesthetic.

If I'm wrong, it's one of two things.

1) Unlocking again would open up some hboot commands that you would probably never use

2) it could cause all sorts of terrible. I haven't needed to unlock again.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
yeah thats what i remember reading but its running perfectly despite the vzw bloat...ill give it a week or two before i get the itch to switch it up...atleast until the first roms based on the official ics start popping up...thanks all
[HTC Rezound] scotty1223:
you are correct- RUU technically is HTCs Rom Updater Utility,or ,.exe file. over time it has changed to more generally mean "install factory software",so when folks say run an RUU they mean to install signed software from htc,in the form of a PxxxIMG file,or running an executable file on the PC.

if he is having issues with data dropping,then the fix is to do a factory reset or clear storage from the hboot menu,not a custom recovery menu. you need the stock recovery in place to do this,amon will not wipe all areas that the stock recovery apparently is.

just wanted to point this out. he may want to do one of those 2 things(maybe even both) in hboot before putting his custom recovery back in place.

im not sure why this works,but it does. i downgraded,then upgraded,not sure what i did,but i was only getting 3g,and even that was missing half the time,and wasnt stable and "clear storage" from hboot fixed it right up.

right after s-off i wasnt getting 4g,and did a factory reset in hboot,wich fixed it as well. ive seen recomendations for both,and both seem to work.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Welp

Scotty - Thanks. I think there is another material difference that will actually help the OP and others. If you run an actual RUU (and not the PHxxx image people are calling a RUU), there is ZERO chance of a mismatch between Hboot, Firmware(Kernel), etc. No 'old firmware' patches are needed, no accidentally using a GB radio with ICS ROM, etc. You run a RUU (meaning, an actual RUU), you have basically gone nuclear against all mismatch and ROM problems.

I think the other question is, when you run an actual RUU, what impact it will have on S-OFF; and hopefully we will know in 48 hours.
[HTC Rezound] eagle20g:
I'm in the process of downloading the RUU file from the link giving in another post here "the official RUU" file

I just need to understand something here.

How do I install this file threw Hboot?

I know I don't install threw recovery, but not quite sure I understand the procedures since I'm S-OFF

and since I am S-OFF, I just go ahead and run this threw Hboot and I don't have to lock or anything?

How do I run this file threw Hboot "I just want to make sure I undstand" thanks guys

Hello,

Does anyone have a HTC Stock recovery for Asia TW 1.52.709.3, because during the OTA updete the phone is stuck on the HTC icon and cannot start (just rebooting). A read that there is a possibility that there was a problem with the recovery and I want to revert to the old version. Please help, because I want my phone back and don't know what to do.

P.S. The bootloader is updated now to 1.27
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Well I am not sure if the recovery that was with the gingerbread stock ROM is any different from the stock recovery that is with ICS. But here is a download link for the stock recovery.img that was with the stock gingerbread ROM that was on my device. You will have to flash this via fastboot.

Please do as the below post says as I just noe realized the link I posted is not the stock recovery bit 4EXT recovery so I am taking the link down. Sorry guys I will post a new link when I get a chance to upload a stock recovery image.
[HTC Sensation] musa91:
you will find it here as ruu..

http://www.filefactory.com/f/c87a2330449af512/

after downloading do that ..,,,,,...

it's better if u r s-off and super CID read here

you may lose warranty00

Its. Alittel long but u should fallow

1 open the ruu on pc wait until it boots u and show u the next button >>go to ur my computer >>c>> users>> ur pc name user >> temp >> see the file with a long charecter created before mins ago inter >>another folder inside >>inter u gonna see adb sord stuff >>> look for rom.zip ... Once u found it ......

2nd change the name to pg58IMG.

Put it in ur sd card root reboot to boot loader and flash it

I supposed u did super wipe before flashing stock rom

it will take 10 mins to complete then viola. .. u r stocked again

If u didn't found the rom.zip just search for it in c. It must be same size of ruu.exe it's the best way to back to stock I've done it 20 times before good luck ; )

i did the same post for someone in general thread too ...:D
