[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] minotaur507:
I guess you chose not to take skrambled's high road, oh well...

This was deliberately posted in the development thread due to the fact that certain changes within the kernel are thought to prevent this issue. From what I've read since having this problem on my Captivate (which is why I now use a Skyrocket), this issue with ICS is cross-platform and impacts Samsung captivate and variants, Asus Transformers, SGS II, etc., but mostly seems to effect Samsung-based devices emmc. Last time I checked, the Captivate and variants didn't use an Exynos processor, but rather the Hummingbird. Likewise, the Transformer uses Tegra 2 last I checked. The fact that this is a recognized problem by Google Android kernel teams I thought might be helpful to the developers here to prevent something like this from possibly impacting our devices. I was not under the impression that our hardware was that dramatically different from the i777.

With that said, I'll go back to just reading...

Moderators, please close this thread if it is of no further usefulness.

What to do after hard brick??

My Galaxy Note was bricked due to wiping under CWM. Now my N7000 can enter into download mode, but cannot enter recovery... I read somewhere that the only thing that can be done is get a new motherboard from Samsung... can anybody advise what is the estimate cost of a new motherboard for Galaxy Note N7000? Or is there any possibility that a solution would be developed in the future?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] skrambled:
You'll have better luck in the Note forum. I'd start here, sounds like it may be the problem you're having (assuming you were on an ICS leak rom): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1633943

And search around for how to fix a soft brick. If you can get into dl mode you should be able to flash a stock tar and fix it. Good luck!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindwave:
ok, the nook im using has had a tough life, and for 6 months I thought it was completely dead.

Then it came back to life and seemed to be doing well for 3 months then it started going down hill

bottom line issue: The NC seems to be turning itself on during the night while I have it plugged in and charging. Then when I unplug it in the morning its less than 50% charged.

I had cm9ICS on it and other than poor battery life everything seemed ok, someone here suggested I go back to mirage to haelp the battery so I did.

I went all the way to a full format (cache apps, everything) then started building with Mirage, everything seemed to work just fine.

Then when I went to shut down it just reboots.

So I try pressing and holding the power button in all the way, until it completely powers off, and it looks like its ok, but then this morning I got up and went to unplug it, it was already on and the battery was down at the 50% mark

I really like the NC I have 2 others at home, one fr the wife one for the child, plus I have given 3 more as gifts to friends. BUT it just is not looking good here...

any ideas would be appreciated.

thanks

Try your wifes power cable and see if it does it too.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindwave:
thanks,

ive actually tried 3 of them

same thing on all of them.

now I have noticed that it only completely powers down about 1 out of every 4 tries.

If I use the soft power off option (press and hold for 5 then select power off then yes) the other times its just one big reboot

anyone had THAT?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DizzyDen:
To power off the nook when charging... attach to charger... press power button... select shut down from menu.

If you hold power button in to hard shutdown with it connected to charger... it is going to power cycle.

That is normal... and functions the same way if you put B&N stock rom on it.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindwave:

i didnt know that aboout the hard shut down when plugged in. but once again last night took 6 attempts to get it to go off and STAY off w/ the menu

any ideas?

anyone

bueller?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J515OP:
Are you also using the stock wall adapter? In addition to the cable you need to have sufficient output from the source you are plugging the cable into. Most older usb ports only have 0.5A output and the Nook needs ~2A usb port (usually say iPad compatible).

If the Nook is running on a low charge it will have start up and shut down issues until it is sufficiently charged. It sounds like you may have issues other than that but make sure you are getting a full charge after plugging it in overnight and go from there.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindwave:
yep, matter of fact just to make sure I have tried swapping between all 3, no difference,

i may end up with a novo aurora if I cant figure this one out

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
TY for the add :)

If the task29 doesn't work, make sure you're using the correct CWM partition size, even ones which are too big can cause problems sometimes. Sticking to the one recommended tends to be the best idea, it takes literally 3 minutes to flash a new partition size anyway. If you have bad blocks you may want to have a slightly higher size, but other than that sticking to the recommended size is best.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] CB620:
My First Impressions:

-DOES NOT ADD BULK TO THE PHONE.

-Fits snug around phone.

-Adds a nice firm grip to the device.

-Perfect cut-outs for all ports

-There are no cut-outs for the POWER & VOLUME ROCKERS, but the material still has the springy feeling so you don't have to press hard.

-Nice black glossy design going around the case, with a smoke grey clear back to show off GALAXY S BRANDING.

-Easy to put on & take off.

**MOST IMPORTANTLY**

The lip on the case adds a gap between the screen and surfaces just in case you drop the device face down it will prevent scratches or possibly cracking.

I will definitely be ordering the Clear Back. There are also Red & Blue Backing Available.

I like this case. Being as though it is my first choice I am not disappointed with the material or fit of it. Also i received my case in 4 days. Nice packaging and shipping method.

No problem. I'm so use to how the case feels that when I removed it to do a batt pull the blaze felt a little lighter than usual. I love the feel the the battery cover.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bulletblitz27:
So my case came in, and I foolishly believed the back part was white, when infact was transparent lol. So I kept the phone paper that came in the cover, cut the holes accordingly, then drew my customization on the white back part. The results are attached.

The cover has a good fit, but I've seen better. The feel quality is not cheap, but I've felt better covers.

I might have to try something like this. I bought a case off Amazon that is sort of a two parter. Internal plastic shell with a rubbery outer covering. Solid case but it tripled the width on this bad boy.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] CB620:
It's a good solid case. Barely any bulk.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
I love the protection my case offers but the added bulk is driving me nuts! I couldn't take it anymore so I ordered this case. While I'm waiting for delivery I'm temporarily putting my phone in the rubber skin case I bought for it similar to the one that came with my HD2 a couple years ago.

Everyone here seems to like this case and it's at an excellent price point.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] CB620:
Glad everyone likes it
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
Got my case today and I love it so far! It's the perfect blend between the rubbery skins and the plastic hard cases. Very little bulk added and they did an excellent job of cutting the holes for access to all of the ports.

They did a good job of making the usb port plenty large enough. On the rubbery skin I was using they cut the hole a little too small. It was big enough for the silver part to fit but not large enough for the black part so it would keep falling out.

The one minor complaint I have is that, while they are "springy" as previously described, the power and volume rockers aren't raised enough on the sides of the phone. They need to stick out a little bit further to they can be found and pressed easier by touch IMHO.

Overall I would give it an A-
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Just spoke online to HTC, i enquired about the USB host function in order to attach a wired controller, Obviously the hardware supports it but it's not included in the Kernel or ROM.

The Guy obviously couldn't comment on much but he did say to me it is under development so i'd hope we may get it EVENTUALLY via an update which includes kernel 3.x

Just thought i'd share the conversation.

Doesn't the One S already have the 3.x kernel though? Theoretically it should work, might need an open sourced kernel. Not sure as I don't really follow One S dev.

It's supposed to work but you need a power supply, so it's not usefull at all. I was hoping a modified kernel would made regular usb host possible.

[Sony Tablet S] kolipko:
Hi!

As the topic says i am seriously thinking about buying a 32 GB STS but i have a couple of questions first.

1: Is it good/better in comparison to other tablets out there today in the same pricerange?

2: How is ICS on it?

3: Does it need root or is it good even without it? (Asking mainly because i read if ICS is on it already it isn´t possible to root it)

4: How is the support from the community and Sony?

I am not a newbie when it comes to android, coming from a Samsung galaxy s and currently using SGS2... but i have no experience in tablets, except for the crappy aPad i have.

So, if there are any other reasons to why i should get one please tell me :)

I already know about the IR and playstation certified which are the two main reasons i am looking at this tablet.

Awaiting response

/Kolipko
[Sony Tablet S] jameslindsey:
1: Is it good/better in comparison to other tablets out there today in the same pricerange?

The screen seems better and the general feel of it to me was more polished than others I tried. You have the built in ir & media control which gives it an advantage over the competition and flash over the ipad.

2: How is ICS on it?

Pass, patiently awaiting it in the UK, my only bugbear is direct access to the SD card which root or ICS fixes.

3: Does it need root or is it good even without it? (Asking mainly because i read if ICS is on it already it isn´t possible to root it)

See above, I'm happy as it is apart from direct SD card access, but ICS is smoother and adds this as far as I know.

4: How is the support from the community and Sony?

Sony are no better or worse than any manufacturer that I know of but the support and information on this forum is second to none.
[Sony Tablet S] earni:
Since having mine I have realised a few things, I use it a lot more for stuff I didn't think I would at first (ie. Playing ps1 games etc.) And havnt used it as much for stuff that I thought I would like music and web browsing.

I have rooted mine on honeycomb but I am going to install the pre-rooted ics as soon as my sd card turns up.

The only drawback to having the sony tablet S for me is the lack of sales... it means simply that there are less devs working on things like unlocking the bootloader and although it wouldn't be the end of the world if we never get to make custom roms it would still be nice.

If the only thing you are after is to flash roms and customise it like crazy id say get a galaxy tab. Otherwise the sony is the daddy!
[Sony Tablet S] kolipko:
Thank you both for your replies :)

I am not looking to flash/customise it like crazy, it´s good to know that root isn´t that important for it as it seems but if i manage to get it with HC preinstalled i might root it (if it has the right kernel) and be happy with that.

The lack of sales and support is a little disturbing though, but since it is android most things are applicable from other devices... right?

Honestly i must say i am a little sick of samsung because of the UI, like i said in my main post i had a SGS1 and use a SGS2 now but i am thinking about leaving that aswell for some other phone... but that is another story.

The screen is probably the most important thing on a device IMO and i did go to a local store and compare the Sony with a few other devices like the iPad and Samsung, the Sony felt more responsive...

And the more i look at it and search the web i am getting more and more convinced to get a Sony tablet and we can always hope that something happens in the dev part for this tablet but if not i hope i wont regret buying it... but coming from a chinese piece of crap like the AverMedia 6850 aPad i think i will be very happy :)

[Sony Tablet S] aldredd:
What really struck me about the tablet what how natural it felt to hold & use compared with the standard 'flat' tablets.

For me, I've surprised myself with hoe much I use it - I now use to to control pretty much every bit of electronic kit in my living room. I use the IR to control TV/BluRay/AMP/XBOX (yes, even the xbox, though not for gaming, of course). I can then turn on my HTPC from it, and stream music to my AMP using the Sony as the playlist editor, or pick a film to watch from XBMC, read about it on the tablet, hit play, and it's on screen.

It was intended to be (and still is, really) a luxury 'do I really need it' but now value it (and use it) more than my phone to be honest
[Sony Tablet S] earni:
This too.

I wouldn't worry about the UI. Like you say on your galaxy s2... you should try MIUI.US rom, it will be like having a new phone. I'm using it on my desire z. however like I say, to me the UI is the least important part of choosing a device mainly because android itself is so customisable with icons/launchers/themes/widgets etc..
