[HTC EVO 3D] u8myfoood:
I have tried to Flash Viper IC3D, MeanROM ICS (1.6 and 1.9) and Myn's, all of which crash after about half hour to one hour of use, then continuous enter an endless bootloop. I flashed with the both stock kernels from the rom and CHAD's RS1 3.6 kernel. I have not tried with Gingerbread, as I got this phone exclusively to run ICS.

I also have another EVO 3D on MeanROM 1.6, which runs pretty much flawlessly with Chad's kernel, I can't seem to figure out why the data partition seems to randomly corrupt, leading to just either a blank screen with blinking notification or simply repeats to the boot screen. Clearing the dalvik and cache do not help the issue either.

The only way to get it to stop is to clear the data partition and start fresh. Currently the phone is on 1.50 S-OFF, and running TWRP 1.0.3.

Anyone else have this problem or have a solution? I'd rather not have to relock the phone, flash the RUU and start afresh.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
I've looked as much as I could into all the posts on here to find a solution to my issue and found none (plus google/youtube search), so please bare with me.

brief intro: This is my first time owning an Android phone (Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I717).

My issue: the note won't send MMS no matter what I do, talked to AT&T and Samsung supports for two days and no luck :eek:.

I tried editing the pre-selected APN but it's greyed out CAN'T. I tried adding a new one with success but I can't selected as a default APN (what a f***king tease).

Note: SamNote is bone stock with plenty bloatware!

OOPS! Wrong section, can you move to it Q&A section, thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
What you want is your MMS settings not APN settings.

Messaging>Menu>Settings>Message Center

Make sure the number is +13123149810

Try texting 151 with the message "text"

If you dont get a text saying it is working properly and since AT&T and Samsung havent been able to help you, I say get a replacement
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ravens996:
Go to settings.....mobile networks and make sure "use packet data" is checked
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
I can send text messages ONLY not picture/audio/video. the message center is correct and "use packet data" is checked.

When I send a picture it just hangs for hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ravens996:
Have you tried a different sms app just to see if its in the default app? I use GoSms and it works great......its free in the market......worth a shot just to see.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] netsyd:
Use something like Go SMS instead of the stock messenger. Also supports emoji from and to iPhones.

I never got SMS working right with mine either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
I use Handcent SMS.

I just downloaded GoSMS but it seems to be using "GoShare" so it sends a link instead of a picture. Can I change that?

Edit: nevermind. i was using the wrong option. Yet it does the same thing, picture sending just hangs. It seems as if it's using the wrong server settings, I am a 100% sure the APN needs to be changed, but it just F**king won't let me change it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
is Auto-retrieve checked under MMS settings? Push Messages checked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
Yep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ravens996:
The only other thing I can suggest is click on your apn then hit menu and restore to default.....don't know what else to suggest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
Unfortunately, that didn't work.

btw, I'm a prepaid user not a contract if that matters (never had this issue with iphone 3gs and 4s).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ravens996:
Are you sure your data plan is active? Not sure how the prepaid plans work but don't you need a data plan for mms to work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
Click on the link and follow the instructions for MMS apn settings.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
I've using a prepaid plan with 5 phones since 2007 with no issues, this is the only phone that won't let me send mms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
as i stated before, I CANNOT CHANGE the preselected apn nor select the new apn as default.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
Also make sure in handcent...go to settings>application > default app messaging application make sure its set for sms and mms ..for your default app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tyler79durdan:
This happened to me also. Had to select att mobile network. Menu settings mobile networks select att.

Also I don't know where you think you are, but this is not the place for these kind of interactions and language. Grow up kid. If you're an adult, grow up kid.

Go take a time out and chill bro. All of us here are like a big family, and ppl like you come in here with messed up attitudes, all wind up taking the short road to bansville.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] youngunix:
Thank you to all the members that participated in answering my question (with patients and postive attitude). I have fixed the problem, I will include instructions and photos later.

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

Okay, after searching for hours on how to fix the mms issue, i have found a very usefull and easy to use app that sets up the APN:

1. Go to Play Store to download/install it.

2. Run it (no root access needed).

3. Click on "Let's Go"

View attachment 1112307

4. Then "Select Operator"

View attachment 1112308

5. Choose your service provider (my case: AT&T)

View attachment 1112309

6. Finally select your type of connection (my case: prepaid=standard)

View attachment 1112310

That is it, again in my case the "4g" never appeared at the top right corner until i've done this.

Note: if you don't succeed the first time, try it again by selecting a different type of connection (last photo).

Good luck.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
I have passed the last 3 hours searching about this since I saw it on another post.

What is the brick bug??

According to my readings, this is related to ICS leaks flashing for sgs2 and galaxy note on roms and based kernels...and u can hardbrick ur phone when u do wipes / resets erasing partitions on the emmc.. kind of..

Masters like Chainfire and many others (my bad i forgot their names but they know who they are).. have provided explanations and links to this info. 1+ to KennyLegend for posting the link I read in the other thread.

So, after checking my s2 with Chainfire's app. I got the damn 0x19 chip :( which means I have the bad one but reading and reading it seems that for kernels based on the 4update source its kinda safe... But as I am not a developer and just and user Im still confused a lil bit about this...

And I know there is info missing for the readers on this thread... Im sorry really .. Im still confused and Im opening this thread with the intention of understand better the issue, so that I beg to the real masters that please clear all our doubts..

I.e. : what are the safe kernels based on the safest update?

And are we safe running xxlpxxx stock rom??

What flashing junkies need to know??

Is it possible to brick our device now since this bug was found on may??

And many many more doubts that will come up...

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwiqu:
you mean the one whereby when you are using a kernel with the brick bug in it and you clear data, cache, you will brick your phone in the process right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanis64:
Hi

I've got the same (maybe) Problem here

Also i have that

VYLOOM

Revision 0x19

eMMC Chip on my GT-I9100

I have the free German Version (Country Code DBT)

And currently using the Polish XXLPW ROM (Kies Release) flashed with Odin over the official XWLP7 also from Kies. Using Chainfires CF-Root for LPW.

Reading this thread in the Epic 4G Touch General Section

it seems that some of the Devs Kernel don't have the 'workaround' that samsung has in some of his kernels.

Maybe of my english or because i haven't the time to read all the 47 Page so far, i do not clearly understand if this bug is only happens if you use factory wipe from the CWM or could it also happens if you use the Option from the normal ROM Settings under ICS.

I will read on and seeking in other sites for more information.

regards

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephraim:
We do not have to worry if we are using the international sgs2 (i9100). I think it was for the korean version of sgs2. There are people who hard bricked their device using a custom kernel where they wiped and the phone never came back (it's in the general section). It's really not the fault of the kernel developer but by samsung. So no need to worry guys.

Relax. There's nothing to worry about. If this happens to you (very unlikely), it will happen suddenly, and there will be nothing you can do to stop it happening. If the 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of it happening bothers you that much & you want to be absolutely sure that it doesn't, leave your phone on stock & don't mess with it.

its brick bug

check the attached images i m running 4.0.3 ics Aut Switzerland

tell me its brick bug i many tym wipe/ factory reset with cwm nothing happen but chainfire app say brick bug exist
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obagleyfreer:
The brick bug is only present in ICS 4.0.4 firmware with Samsung kernel (or stock based kernel such as CF-Root) and it's only an issue if you wipe using CWM.

If your phone is stock and you have stock recovery then you're fine. You can delete/wipe cache, factory reset as much as you like. No harm will be done.

In short: 4.0.4 firmware + CWM = Brick.

Unless you flash a 'safe' kernel such as Siyah or NEAK or Speed mod

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Face Of Boe:
I just bought my 80 G9. Before I start rooting and romming and warranty voiding I thought I should ask in case these are defects:

In landscape mode, is it normal for the viewing angle to be better if the tablet pointed down instead of up? In other words, if I have the screen down on a table and I'm looking at roughly a 45 degree angle 18" away, it's not good. Yet if I prop it up almost vertical in the same place, 18" away, below my line of site, it looks amazing. Head-on it looks kind of ok, but videos and dark images get washed out. (And using it in portrait is odd too - the screen looks good if I tilt it to the left. Otherwise, the screen looks different to each eye).

The second thing I experienced is, there seems to be a touch dead zone in the top middle of the screen, right where the X's are in Chrome for a second or third tab (it takes about 5 taps to finally get one to land on the X). I haven't found any other dead areas.

If both of these are common issues I can live with them.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
Do you have a 80G9? Its viewing angles seem to suck

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Face Of Boe:
Yes, 80 G9.

I'm quickly getting used to the angle.

As for the touch, I ran a drawing program and sure enough there's an 8th inch margin around the whole screen where touching is difficult.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyco:
Hi,

i've got the same thing on my 80G9.

After a screen calibration and after the last update, the touchscreen is ok.

The viewing angle is very bad on this tablet in landscape. Try to do a 180° rotation. I only find this solution to watch correctly
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psiman24:
Its designed to be optimally viewed using the stand so that's probably why the viewing angle sucks flat and Straight.

I think the dead area is not a dead area its just chrome takes a while to respond due to its huge memory requirements with tabs.

As for voiding the warranty : If you use custom roms from here (XDA) and NOT Official then your device won't be watermarked and won't void the warranty. Just remember to total factory reset/wipe and remove SDE Menu system before you ship it back if it needs a repair.

Psi.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Face Of Boe:
I installed multitouch visual test from the market, and there was a definite dead zone. The taps would be extremely accurate up until you reached 1/8-1/4 from the edge, and suddenly nine out of ten taps would land on the very edge. Tapping on chrome tab buttons was merely a symptom.

So I returned the G9 and exchanged it (I had drove 2 hours to a store to buy it in the first place, and luckily found an excuse to go back within the 14 day return period). I exchanged it, and tested it on the spot. The accuracy of the edges was much better. I'd say nine out of ten taps near the edges were within 5 pixels (whereas in the center they were dead on). Not quite a scientific test, but definitely noticeably better. And tapping on things near the edge like chrome tabs worked 9/10 times.

That was yesterday. I got home, started playing with it, turned the tablet to rotate it, and no rotate. I know rotation worked earlier in the day while I was testing it - it had rotated while in my lap at an almost flat angle. Still I double checked the rotation settings, did a factory reset, upgraded to stock 4.0.6. It's still stuck in landscape mode.

So I'm out. I'll find another excuse to drive 2 hours each way back to the store sometime in the next 2 weeks, and probably exchange it for something else (with any luck the nexus will be out).

It's too bad too. I really liked it. The price was phenominal, the hardware design straightforward, the os non-bloated, etc. From what I read there aren't a lot of problems with the hardware. I just have dumb luck I guess.

Hi Face Of Boe!

I got two A80S tablets and no problems with touchscreen here.

Just to inform you about some features of ICS:

Have a look in the settings...

- Developer options

- User Interface

- Show touches

After activating this option a light spot is shown after touching the screen.

No need for an external tool to check the accuracy of your touchscreen :p.

the question is... is this possible?

I mean... the Omnia W / Focus Flash does it. I just think the power button is really "not sensible" enough to feel right. The home button would be more confortable, since it's a physical "clicky" thing, not capacitive like the 800.

Any way to registry mod or anything to make it work on the lumia too?

I'm thinking about getting a new phone soon... I wanted to pick up the HTC One X but reading about so many faulty devices over on the forums I'm kinda hesitant now. Still wondering whether or not I should make the plunge; on the other hand the 4S looks pretty interesting as well so that's also an option. So does the Xperia Arc S.

I need to get the phone before Julyish since I'm going overseas to study.

I don't see the newer phones (even One X, Galaxy S3) being much better than the G2x already. Sure they have ICS, but all the apps I run are fine on GB. Plus the extra cost to upgrade vs the ~$200 out-of-contract price of G2x on $30/mo plan doesn't justify it.
