1. the external sd is mounted differnent that other phones.

ie /mnt/extCard or something..

this causes issues because move to sd doesnt work, and both gps apps I have

sygic and garmin navigon dont see the external sd card so they have to download their huge maps to the internal sd (which is not very big) big problem. Tried to do a symbolic link, but without root and busybox.. not possible.

2. light notifications:

no way to change the color etc.. and turn off at night.

lightflo does not work correctly.. if you leave the built in "led indicator" settings under system on .. the notifications work but everytime you sleep the phone a stupid green light comes on.. If you turn off the built in notifications than light flow notifications no longer work.

light flo issue is a known issue.. i found the following reference:

2. text to speech also doesnt not work in sygic.. works fine on my old galaxy s..

reason is that if you go into language and input

and text-to-speech-output and settings for either google or samsung... install voice data is greyed out.. so that i cannot install the data needed for the sygic app to be able to speek.

Yes, the maps are on the external storage (microSD) card. 100% sure as I removed the microSD card, plugged it in my laptop, and copied the maps to it.

strange .. just tried again.. deleted the internal sd maps and it immediately goes to downloader to redownload them.. even though i have them on /mnt/extSdCard/aura/maps

pain in the butt.. thanks for your help

also tried removing and installing the app from the external sd.. still puts stuff in /sdcard/aura and shows no maps and downloads to there.. if i copy the stuff from the external to the internal the maps work fine so the files are not corrrupt or anything..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreww88:
It froze at factoryfs.img so yes. There is a thread in the General section that you can look into that has to do with re-partitioning and such that MIGHT make it work sort of, but it is really technical and it has no guarantees.

Edit:

You COULD try to Odin one more time, if it will let you back into download mode, but probably won't work.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreww88:
Kinda hard for me to understand. You did or didn't try multiple times? You did or didn't try re-partitioning? Look in the General thread. I don't know anything about it cause I haven't had to try it. You only get a yellow triangle if you flash a custom ROM with PC Odin.

Is there any reason I should use it?

Are there any actual unique or cool uses with it, with an app to help or not?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Johnny Paranoid:
I keep getting a BSOD with the error "no more IRP stacks available" when connecting my Skyrocket via USB to my Win7 PC. This happens when the phone tries to upload its drivers. To my understanding, this means that there is a conflicting USB driver for the device that is causing the problem. I uninstalled Kies and selected that it uninstall all USB drivers when doing so. I do not see any Samsung drivers in my Device Manager tab. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
use an oem cable or another oem cable

try a different usb port, preferably the back ones

did it ever work correctly

try a different comp to c it it does work

try installing drivers w/out kies

if u installed a program and then notice the errors, try uninstaling the program

restore win7 back to an early date
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Johnny Paranoid:
System restore...derp...

Yeah, the device was recognized before installing Kies and after a restore it does again. Re-installing Kies confirmed that it is the problem. Kies wants to install drivers (which you can't opt out of) that conflict with the device's built in drivers and causing a BSOD. I guess I'll just have to wait for some ROM's to show up that are based on the official AT&T ICS update. I don't want to use any builds based on leaked versions due to the high potential of bricking this device. Thanks for the response.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
u can c if its running in the background in win7 and hit "end process" disable it

chance of bricking is very remote , the issue was using "wiping" from within ics(aokp and cm9 builds) not from cwm, read and u will find out urself.

using seans new skyics from official rogers ics, made to work on both phones try it out, realy no chance of bricking, unless u mucked up with odin.

these rom dev's have to at least flashed their devices 100's of times, me included 100 times, if there was a high risk in bricking we wouldnt b using this phone. just read all the stickies, read the dev pages and u will be good to go

Recently just installed MIUI because well.. I miss it.

So I installed MIUI with -

- ICS/GB Kernel 3/21

- Beats Audio Mod SGSII Mod

- Battery Life Mod, newer.Zip near the last page

I then booted it up and just enabled wifi and went to sleep. Then this happened...

I cannot even comprehend what happened, before I went to sleep it wasn't on, well the display.

But when I look at it says the display was on but it wasn't! The reason how I know it wasn't on is because I left wifi turn off when screen is off.

If anyone can explain this please do.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Try wiping battery stats thru recovery and see if it happens again. If it does some program is probably holding a wake lock.

I actually did that once I flashed the rom, no roms were installed. I flashed and signed into wifi and went to sleep.

Even if its not ICS, I am open to downgrade until they hopefully sort it out with CM9.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
On any ICS ROM:

1) Download Barnacle and Wifi Tether for Root Users.

2) Open Barnacle, check "skip wpa supplicant" in settings, run it, then turn it off once it's closed.

3) Run Wifi Tether and connect your device to your phone.

The latest cyanogenmod9 alpha5 by tbalden & korneyone now natively supports the wifi tethering. I've been using it for several months and the bugs are almost non-existent (certainly unnoticeable to the majority). I think the only one that most people would notice is the lack of 1080p support (but 720p still works perfectly)! There's a few others out there, but they are mainly only in the more obscure features.

ONLY FOR EMULATOR USE. REGULAR GAME CONTROLS WILL BE REVERSED!

After having a spot of bother with the O button on MIUI v2.3.9 exiting on games/emulators I tried a few things and finally found a solution:

(see attached file) Ignore the fact its an ICS fix. It still works with Gingerbread but with 1 small issue

Circle button now works properly but for some reason when remapping controls (emulators) the Up button says Left etc. Ignore that though as all the buttons are correct i.e even though Up says Left, the Up d-pad still refers to Up. Likewise Left (despite being displayed wrongly as Down) is still Left.

In menus however, Left moves Down and Right moves Up :S

My S3 has developed a problem with the battery charge draining. When i am charging my phone, either by USB or wall charger, the battery will charge extremely slowly or go down. This is while nothing running and left overnight to charge.

Has anyone else come across this problem? My phone has become unusable because of this and must be constantly plugged in. However, even when plugged in it will turn off sometimes due to running out of juice.

I'm leaning towards thinking that the battery is the problem not the charging circuits of the phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avocco:
Try charging it with the phone off and if that doesn't work do a hard reset. Some of the custom roms allow you to adjust the charge rate as well, have you installed any custom roms or modified any of those settings?

If none of the above work then it is most likely a hardware fault possibly battery.
