[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] dj_rene:
after install and check, my p6800 comes with the MAG4FA

since I have bought the device more than half a year, it brings me 4 x "stuck and stays on the boot screen where says "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7" for a few seconds, and then just keep rebooting". It all comes all of a sudden, the pad is locked or when I browsing the Internet. It just stuck there and then reboot by itself.

the first of 3 times, I still able to enter the mode to reset the factory defaults and then re-initial the HB. but 4th time it will then never let me get into it and will reboot when 'copying music' again and again. The I tried to drain the battery and do a full charge, does not help. flash with ordin, no help.

at the end, I do a flash with ordin, then leave and make it keep charging (do not drain the battery) and then all of a sudden it can enter the system!

not sure if this is a bug related to the chip or just the battery?

but I was so disappointed to the Samsung as I have found there are a lot of people do have the same issue like that!

ICS release

Has anyone with the superbrickbug flashed ICS firmware yet?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] poisike:
Yes, i did. My tablet has the bug according to the app. Tablet still works, but i didnt do a factory reset.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] asdfasd2:
Yes I did, and it works.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] aletheus:
awesome, thanks guys! downloading now. ;-P F**K HC 3.2!!!

i was in the middle of downloading it from my tab, and AS USUAL, opera FC's with 70MB left on the download. ughh... downloading from desktop now.

i guess Sammy figured out that it'd have a bunch of FURIOUS gTab 7.7 owners throwing their bricks at them if they didn't fix it....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Terrandroid:
It seems that i have the bug to, is there a way to locate this: MMC_CAP_ERASE thing to see that its active or not?

Im very scared now i read this, i don't wan't to brick my tab.

I didn't have any problems flashing ICS through mobile odin, or with factory restoring from ICS stock recovery. It SEEMS like samsung fixed the brickbug vulnerability or worked around it at least.

read this entire thread and you'll get the idea.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ferraritm:
I have not tried the mobile odin yet but the pc odin, flashing to the austria ics update released, the hong kong...so far so good, still need to monitor.

Be Aware, the Brick bug is not necessarily activated from the first Factory Reset or Data wipe, it can kick in any time. it's Random!

[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]

I don't think that Samsung has worked out the brick bug as I just bricked my note with the latest 4.04 official ics. The tab has a separate recovery partition that I think uses its own kernel for it's recovery operations. Locerra's cwm recovery should be the safest. Have used it to restore backups a couple of times with no problems.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] zykozz:
Seems my p6800 is bricked.. Why didn´t i see this post before!!

Ok so my P6800 is bricked as it seems. I can flash in a recovery and access download mode. But i havent find any way to fash in a rom. I think my partition is broken. In ODIN it stucks at flashing factoryfs.rfs in recovery it hangs on flashing from .zip. Though one time I got it to flash ZETA rom.. But then bootloop.

Any suggestions???
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] zorbakun:
@zykozz how did It brick, did u do factory reset/wipe in stock recovery or wiped in CWM recovery?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] amroman:
Hello

It's same issue i had before , the only way worked for me to bring tablet alive again is to change FACTORYFS and DATAFS partitions start and end into clean are but that will cost you lost space on DATAFS partition

I followed that solution using adb and now I have Free DATAFS of 11G instead of 14G ( I lost 3G ) , and now I installed Tweaked ICS ROM Aroma and then Zeta ROM 3.5 , I'm no longer able to use ODIN to flash offical ROMs , only to flash recovery

I know my tablet didn't come back as I wanted , but anyway it's alive now and working with same performance
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] zykozz:
Wipe in stock recovery... =/

I knew I had a brickbug before I actually (hard)bricked my Tab. Samsung replaces the motherboard. Now after checking again with Got Brickbug & eMMC Brickbug...it says it AIN'T NO MORE.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ti4go:
Hi,

After having problems with the internal memory of the "SGS", follow the only tutorial that worked for my case (since the phone is out of warranty), I created two partitions on the external SD card and the phone will recognize them as internal partitions NAND, the phone works and everything, but no disk space, thus making it impossible to use various programs and use the camera among other things.

I wonder if there is a way of SGS recognize a possible third partition of the SD as usable space.

Perhaps swapping the mount-points? Anyone have ideas?:confused::confused:

Anyone know of any good Bluetooth gamepad controllers that work well with this phone and with FPS or sim games?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Enity:
ps3 dualshock works fine..
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I've read some reviews on that one, I'll check it out.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Clericgram:
Dual shock +1
[Motorola Atrix 2] Preggy:
WiiMote works too :p
[Motorola Atrix 2] ryuben2k:
How about xbox 360?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The Wiimote and XBox 360 are both bluetooth? Are there apps for emulators that need to be installed for them to work?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Preggy:
There is an app called Wiimote Controller (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ccpcreations.android.WiiUseAndroid&hl=en) that can be used to establish a connection to the Wiimote over bluetooth and add an Input Method that puts out the Wiimote button presses which can then be assinged in certain emulators... However this method might be problematic with games in general that don't have customisable controls...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Thanks for that tip!
[Motorola Atrix 2] beekah:
I'm pretty sure 360 remotes are not Bluetooth based.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The xBox 360 game pads are Bluetooth ready. See HERE.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rlopezcomputers:
+1 on the ps3 contoller. Is the best
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Noted. I've never used an xBox controller, but I am familiar with the PS3 game pads -plus, I think the layout and feel is way better... but that's just my opinion! :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Bmatthews11:
Xbox controllers ARE NOT bluetooth. They are infrared.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Figures... GO MICROSOFT! lol :p
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Do I need a Bluetooth dongle for Wiimote, or how is the setup?
[Motorola Atrix 2] RowanOak:
Wiimotes use Bluetooth for the buttons and pad. The the "attitude" of the controller is reported that way too. The actual positioning is via infrared...though interestingly enough, the sensor is in the remote, and the LEDs are in the "sensor bar" and that is reported back by Bluetooth as well.

Oh, right. Do you need a dongle. Nope, shouldn't. Haven't tried it myself though.

Edit: Whoops, meant to make it clear that this is an "as far as I can remember" thing...its been a while since I looked at it!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
I may (if I get a chance) test this out tonight... I'll let y'all know! :cool:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Preggy:
Yes, that's exactly how it works and you do NOT need any additional hardware. The app I linked to earlier has some simple and straightforward instructions that you can't miss, simply put the wiimote into "connect-mode" by pressing 1&2 simultaneously and then let the app search for it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Schweet. I'm going to try it out tonight!

Hello,

As the description says.. anyone know this problem?

Im rooted and on arhd :-)

If i deleete some apps the problem is still here. I can download from market with no problem
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomTcom:
This is an issue with /data or /datadata I think...

There are some threads on xda that point to the partition because the wrong size/file system and tells the os it is out of space.

Don't confuse the internal data partition where apps typically install with the space on the internal sd card (where you indicated you have 10GB of space).

The internal sd card of the tf is divided into partitions that determine all the space/permissions and what not.

As an immediate fix, try uninstalling apps you don't use at all and move apps that don't require internal storage to the SD card. This should alleviate for the time being while you narrow down the issue.
[HTC Rezound] croonux:
Hi guys I have a problem I can't seem to solve I never use Wifi as I have no need for it because I'm on unl data but I needed it today for an app well my Wifi doesn't turn on at all it says error I'm not rooted and in rocking an extended battery cover
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Have you not tried flashing anything whatsoever and are 100% Gingerbread stock? I saw you asking about the leaked ICS builds. The WiFi "error" message is common when flashing the kernel, have to do it twice to make sure it takes it.
[HTC Rezound] Damasterjj:
If you are not rooted and 100% stock. then perhaps you set wifi incorrectly.
[HTC Rezound] croonux:
Yup 100% stock I haven't tried flashing anything at all yet But I'll probably due tonight and its not only my wifi apparently my bluetooth does not connect as well it just keep saying turning on but it doesn't actually turn on and wifi just says "error"
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Hmm...

Very odd it would have those problems fully stock. Did you get it from an authorized seller or Verizon new, or did you get a CLN Verizon replacement or buy it secondhand from elsewhere? Could still be an issue with a bad flash by a previous owner if the latter holds true.

Well I was about to suggest running an .exe version of a Gingerbread RUU from this thread, which should correct any errors, but you'll need to back up all internal SD data and put it back on the phone memory due to wiping. And re-download all your apps and reconfigure all your customizations, etc.

And just to toss it out there, third party extended battery covers may have shoddy antennas or none at all. :eek: Suggested you check all connections against the stock backplate layout. Should still not wind up with a straight "error" message that way, though...

if the RUU tidying up the software don't fix it, that may just be straight hardware damage. Killed my WiFi and bluetooth on my iPod touch a while back with some liquid and got the same symptoms.
[HTC Rezound] croonux:
thanks for all the help I pretty much did everything here before making the thread I checked the cover saw the metal made sure everything clicked compared my extended battery cover to the regular cover but everything seemed the same, tried the extended battery and regular battery but same problem no wifi connection giving me an error it's already fixed I fixed it by upgrading to the ICS leak and now i can connect to wifi no problem I was started to think it was hardware wise from a drop or something but nope it was somehow software idk how it got messed up since I was 100% stock, well thanks once again for your help and I feel you on the ipod same thing happened to me after going snowboarding, I went to mamoth and I was snowboarding and I had my ipod on one of the gazillion pockets of my jacket when I got to the cabin I was tripping out of where I left my ipod (had barely bought it) so I was looking all over the cabin untill I stuck my hand inside my open pocket and there was my ipod with a bunch of Melted ice submerged on water my headphone jack got messed up so no matter the pair of headphones I couldn't hear from one side and wifi got messed up so I fixed the ipod at apple store and I stepped on it 2 months later breaking the screen I refixed it again, and one day I was messing around with my little sister and I was holding half her body over a swimming pool and to "rescue her" my other lil sis pushed me into the pool and my ipod got messed up again and the extra casulty was my OG droid may it RIP (tried to turn it on later after putting it on rice only for it burn and the screen get foggy) after that I said F this ish and never bought an ipod again :\ and I was stuck with a crappy black berry for like 3 months before getting the rezound... wow mini essay going on here...

I have considered rooting phones / tablets in my shop but i don't think the benefits outweigh the risk.

I can see it now, i root a device and a month later something goes wrong, the customer tries to send it back for repairs and it's rejected because it's rooted / unlocked / whatever, and they come back screaming at me.

Meanwhile, i had them sign a waiver stating that they're voiding their warranty by rooting / unlocking / etc.

My experience has been that people only hear / read what they want and nothing else.

While I will read and read and read to make sure I minimize my chances of effing up my stuff and feel pretty confident when I make any changes, I have no desire to do it with their stuff. Simply for the fact that both used their phones daily and wouldn't be too happy with a paperweight.

Last night, my lovely Xperia S decided it didn't appreciate electricity anymore, and shut down. Now, despite charging overnight, it won't hold charge. It'll turn on, say it is at 0%, and shut down, and repeats. It already had the yellow tint, so it's going back to Sony anyway, but now I can't even put up with it until I found an alternative phone. I have to use a ****ty £5 Samsung phone with no camera, internet etc and with BUTTONS! How the hell do I use this thing?!

Anyway, rant over. Thought I'd vent my sadness/anger at my Xperia S' death. Got it preordered and arrived on the day of release, and this happens. At least when I get it back ICS will be closer to release I guess.

Because your warranty has been voided when you unlocked
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mharckk:
have u tried installing a new firmware? maybe the firmware is at fault and not the battery. unless you've open up your phone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Guess you didn't read the terms before unlocking? It just says 'may'.

So...unless he broke it himself by overclocking or such, or somehow broke it while flashing custom roms, his warranty is probably still intact.

But anyways, back onto the topic. Could it be that your port on your phone died? There was a thread earlier with sort of the same problem, and it turned out that the device had a bad port. Is it loose or does the cable go in pretty solid?

To me it sounds like the battery was on the verge of dying so it did the power off, and it won't power fully up because it is trying to preserve the system from corruption so it's auto powering down every time you try and boot it up.

In any case, I'm sorry to hear about that, and I hope if/when you send it in, they can repair it quickly. Have you tried to call your provider for a spare while you send it in? I know some providers have been pretty kind with this "yellow tint" issue and have been sending a backup device while your S is in for repair...well, I have read that at least :/.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adsada arc:

Hi guys. I have an android japanese phone called 007SH

The thing is that it's sim locked (only way to use it is by hypersim, which would be something that goes WITH the simcard inside the phone, and provides unlock, but it has many disadvantages).

The Sim lock is located in the NAND, so the traditional method of introducing a number to unlock it won't work here. There's currently a temp-root for this phone, so one can access the system files. The thing is that I do not know anything about that, so I wanted to ask you if you can help me with this: you can tell me which file or files have the lock, so that I can send them to you, and you can modify them so that the lock no longer exists. ... I'm asking this because there IS a unlock for this phone, but it's not something you can just download: you've gotta send the phone to Russia and the unlocking service costs 150 dollars :/ . I'm writting this because not many people have this phone, but I'm in a japanese phones forum and everyone is discussing about this, so I thought it would be nice to share this to the experts (you, the XDA developers community) to ask for help.

so yeah, if you can help me I'd appreciate it ^_^
