[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Sony Devices will work on 4g. All the new Sony 2012 Xperia phones come with fixed memory,non removable battery and no memory card slot. Those will most likely brick easier (exception is the Sola which has a slot)

If you want a Sony I recommend the Arc S. The phone is very stylish, I like the design better than Sony Xperia S,and seeing as the essentials are in the Arc S( and both are dual cores) id go with it.

Sony do hold out on batteries especially the 2012 phones,I'd get a generic one for the Arc S.

Bravia Engine is brilliant, but Sony phones have comparatively lesser RAM(512 opposed to 1GB) so it's not a multitasking superhero,but won't lag.

You could get a good deal for the Arc S seeing as it is not king of the hill anymore. It's not as plastic as the Sony Xperia S and the only difference in camera is megapixels,both are Exmor R. You won't be disappointed.

I was looking around and found a post in wich it said something about altering the build.prop file to cancel the boot animation.

Now my question is is there a way to make it last longer? Seeing my bootanimation wont finish in time.

So the enter pin code screen takes over to soon.

Thnx in advance

just tried to restore my nandroid that i made of my phone before i flashed it but i got a bad md5sum on it. i have used it before and it has worked fine but now for some reason i get that error. not sure if it was because i flashed the stock recovery and then put back CWM or not, but i have four backups and 2 work, the other 2 dont

anyway to get these back? or are they done
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Did u rename the backup? U can't have any spaces in the backup which could be a problem
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
yes i did and it does have spaces, that would explain why the one backup i have that i did not rename worked and the other three did not

i flashed stock recovery earlier today so i can't test it now, but i renamed the folder and will nvflash cwm tonight and test, i'm sure that's what it is. i'll let you know
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Omg, I actually helped someone. I'm proud of my self :D. Pelee know if it worked
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
yes that was it, removed the space in the backup name and it restored fine, thank you much!!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
UPDATE:

Turns out my phone is not completely dead.

If I plug it into the computer, it registers a sound indicating a USB is connected,

but not more than 2 seconds later, it sounds again (the sounds of a USB error, Ba, dum, dum)

When I look at device manager, I see: Omap4440 quickly, but then it goes away. This recycles about 8 times and then it just stops.

I read that this might be due to the phone constantly rebooting.

The screen never turns on. I can't get into the bootloader since the screen is dead.

The only problem now is how can I go about this?

-----------------------

I had more than 90% battery because I just unplugged it. I did a reboot to clear any background apps (like restarting a computer, right?) and it just never came back on.

I placed it into my pocket for that minute while it was rebooting but I never watched as the screen went off. When I took it out of my pocket, it was a dead screen.

I already tried volume + power. And/also holding power itself for a while.

Plugging it back into the charger doesn't do a thing. No charge. Screen remains dead. No vibration is present to indicate the phone at least came on.

What is going on here?

My only conclusion is my jacket may have created a static field which caused a short when I pulled it out. Could this be possible? Especially since there are 3 contact points for the dock on the sides?

Using a GSM version if that matters.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
try pulling the battery out for 3+minutes, then put it back in and try booting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusNero:
Sorry that happened to ya. I would plug it in and keep it plugged in for a solid hour, then try booting it up. I had that happen to me on a previous Android....HTC EVO. I was rooted and just died (even though it said it had plenty of battery). For some reason it lied and was actually out of juice bigtime.

Rooted custom ROMS have known bugs, albeit extremely minute bugs. Give it a try and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
Happens every now an then with most galaxy nexus users, battery pull always fixes it, no need to wait 3 minutes, out an straight back in works for me then hit power on button an you will get the vibe an boot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
yeah, i know what you mean because it has happened to me before plenty of times. But this, it's different. It's practically dead and all methods i've tried has not seem to work. I'm seriously out of ideas.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
So it's been charging over night and the phone is still dead and wont turn on.

I've even replaced it with a spare battery which I know is at least 90% full.

Anyone? I'm so sad why my nexus just died like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
rebump... =-( I am so that it just died with no reasons as to why... I've had zero problems with it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Naezor:
You could attempt an OMAPFlash on it, then reload the factory image via fastboot.

That works for me about 90% of the time in GNex repair situations such as this.

Good luck. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krze:
Any water indicators showing water damage? If not, start contacting your provider / insurance / Samsung about a replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:
Replacement man! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Emhalwis:
Simms is that you from the nexus s? If so, can't wait to see you uploading a quadrant shot of your next over clocked phone.

Op, plug it to a computer and check what happens. Otherwise call for a replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
Does this mean I will get a refurbish model? Can anyone quickly explain to me the process to get a new GN and the time it took for you to get your replacement?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] android01:
If the power button itself is at fault, you can send a power on signal by plugging in the phone with no battery installed and then with the wire still plugged in insert the battery. This method requires no button input whatso ever

Edit , i used to do this by accident all the time while flashing htc devices. Not sure if samsungs hardware offers the same troubleshooting functionality and im not at a wire right now to test the theory. But its worth a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m.is.for.michael:
I had something with these symptoms about 4 days into owning my phone.

The way I fixed it was booting into ODIN mode (vol down & power). The only way out of that one is also a battery pull.

Sorry: I meant to say: battery pull, ODIN, battery pull, then it turned on again normally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
Already tried it. Does not work.

I'll give this one a try. But I never thought a combination like that would revive a dead phone. I mean, it's dead as if it was just a children's toy with no electronic board inside. No power even though all 3 battery I tried have at least 90% charge. MY Charger is not defective as it works with my other phones.

Won't work since I can't even turn on the phone. Computer doesn't see it (Obviously because it can't power on).

Indicators show no water damage. This was in my pocket. Unless I pee'ed in my jacket, it shouldn't be wet there.

Thanks for the help guys, but I'm running out of ideas. There's

only so much

you can do with a phone that cannot turn on. =(

Basically, what you're seeing means the phone is still alive, but the firmware is corrupted.

Try this thread, and particularly this post.

No idea if it works or not.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
I just tried it. I used the program. I'm stuck on this part for 20 minutes every time after 5 different attempts.

Any clue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
Is this a hard brick or a soft brick?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ingenious247:
This sounds like hardware failure to me. Drop the phone at all, ever? If not, could just be faulty hardware.

Honestly the Galaxy Nexus seems to be of poorer build quality (internals, screen, back cover, etc) than every other Android phone I've ever had. Not that I don't love my Nexus, just an observation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j.nash:
My Nexus S is gone too ...

I got myself a brick as well. Okay, mine probably is really done, since I can't even observe the device showing up in the device manager when connected to my PC via USB. The trick with plugging in the phone and then inserting the battery to send a boot signal also doesn't work.

This morning, everything seemed to be fine. The phone was charging over night without being turned off. When I unplugged it, I noticed that the phone said that it was still being charged. And the battery indicator showed a pretty low percentage. I decided that it was time for a reboot, but it never wanted to turn on again.

Because of the funny behavior with the charging meter still indicating a charge, I suspect the battery might be the problem. So here's my question:

Do working phones turn on with the battery removed but the device plugged into a charging device? (mine doesn't)

Would a multimeter reading indicate that the battery is still working or is there more to the story than just current coming out from it? (still have to ask a friend who owns a multimeter to help me with that one)

Thanks so much for your help guys!

Greets,

Just flashed aokp_p4wifi_build-37 on my GT-P7510 (awesome, btw), but it seems that the ability to long press on back button in the browser has disappeared. In the stock ROM, long pressing on the browser back button and/or the navigation bar back button (while browser is open) would bring up a list of previous pages in the stock browser. I don't see this option via the "quick controls" either. I'm getting the sense I'm missing something obvious, and am looking for clues.

Thanks...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f2prateek:
it works on cm9 but not AOKP. I think this is because the long back press is intercepted by ROM Control(ROM Control>Navigation bar>Navigation Bar Buttons).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n2theblu:
Thanks f2. That explains perfectly. Perhaps there will be a workaround at some point; I've become too dependent on that feature...

I play a lot of demanding games like Modern Combat 3 and etc... I've read at several places that the Adreno 205 gpu doesn't play well with Android 4.x...

A few days ago I read about the xperia play also... Since it's a phone made for gaming they couldn't get it to run games well in ICS so decided to not update it, as most of you probably already know.

If the 3D rendering performance will start to suck with ICS there's no way I'm upgrading.

Anybody here know if it's true????
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mustbepbs:
Hi all,

Just recently flashed the new FXP123 build and the newest CM9 nightly. I am having an issue with both. As some may or may not know, the new FXP123 build came with a new kernel. This new kernel doesn't allow overclocking and seems a little sluggish.

My solution was to flash a different ICS kernel (KeICS v2, Darkforest v5, DooMKernel v3). Upon flashing a different kernel, WiFi would be broken. When I would attempt to turn it on, it just stays at "Turning Wi-Fi on..." indefinitely. When I reflashed the new FXP123 kernel, WiFi would be restored.

Are these new CM9 builds not compatible with other kernels? It seems odd that both FXP and the new CM9 nightly both have this issue. I've tried flashing the kernel before and after wiping data for a new ROM install, wiping after flashing, etc. I've tried using the different command in fastboot (fastboot -i 0x0fce flash boot <boot>.img). Nothing has worked.
