Yeah, if it's been at that point for that long, you will have to risk it. do you have a jig? if you don't, invest in one. they are worth having around.

Let us know if it works out. I'm crossing my fingers for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nawhdee:
No, I don't...I'll be sure to purchase one as soon as possible.

As for the phone, I shut down my computer and unplugged it - received a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen. At the moment, I'm looking around for a fix. This seems to be a soft brick, though, so I'm optimistic. If there is anything you could suggest for me, it'd be greatly appreciated.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jack man:
see if this works: hold down both volume keys at the same time. then, while holding them, plug in your usb cable. hold the keys until you see a screen with green text. you will then hit the vol up key o get to download mode. then you could start the whole process over again through KIES.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but when I enter the imei into the s/n blank it tells me it's not a valid serial number. I've tried entering the actual s/n and I get a weird message in what looks like Chinese. Any other suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jack man:
Yeah, the IMEI won't work anyway.

That weird message was coming up the day that Samsung said their servers would be down (yesterday). They may have figured out that people were getting the "recovery" firmware that way and disabled it. Who knows.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeyoreSyndrome:
So after having gotten my first GS2 back in mid-april and having only rooted it three days later... I decided on BlueKuban ICS since it was very easy to set up and use (as a completely new android noob)

Anywho, I'm feeling frisky! (And want to be able to easily theme my ROMs / Install other peoples themes) And have since started using miui 2.6.15 ICS.

Some things I noticed off the bat:

-SD Card / Internal HD issues:

I of course made to sure to follow the installation instructions to the (T). Flashed External.zip after flashing the rom..... But there's now internal storage showing less then 3gigs total space...... then the internal storage with ~11gigs (which is the normal SG2's HD space) then even though its still labled as "internal storage" there's my 32gig SD card.

This is not helping my OCD ._. Is this a known issue with miui due to the way it is installed?

-Lockscreen widgit:

I love it! Except I uninstalled alot of stuff I don't want to use like the default Messaging app and the muui music app. Now on the lockscreen going to the message or music icon fails to launch a program (Well I understand why......)

My question: Is there a way to tinker with it to launch the programs I want it to? (Gvoice for messaging and DoubleTwist for music.)

-Themes

I've looked @ the in-phone browser for them.... but was wondering, is there a proper US/English forum/thread/sticky where I could find some themes? ^_^ Google helped me peruse some deviant art posts, but not a designiated list as I was looking for.

Well sorry to rabble on, was going to blurb just my two main questions on the actual MiUI Dev Thread however am still under the 10 post limit (And their Epic 4G Touch thread is very.... well empty :( )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MochaCharok:
Hiya!

In terms of SD issues ... they have always been a problem because we don't have kernel source. The devs working on MIUI have found work arounds that at least get apps on the phone to start recognizing files on the SD (pictures, videos, music, etc) but bugs are gonna be there until kernel source is available to iron them out.

In terms of the MIUI lockscreen, these things are coded into the theme. Last time I checked, if you look through the MIUI theme files, there should be a .xml that *might* allow you to change what the lockscreen "buttons" lead to. However AFAIK you cannot change it any other way. (I may be wrong)

Themes can be found around the English MIUI forums. I never tried them though but they're there. Make sure the theme you're looking at is for ICS versions of MIUI otherwise it may/may not work.

That's all I've got for now, I hope this helped. MIUI is truly a great ROM, just a bit hard to get down straight >_>

Hello all,

Looked and looked and looked and looked, and looked some more. I CANNOT for the life of me find the Anthrax RLS09 Kernel that works with CM7/MIUI.

Anthrax_Shooter-GB217-s2u-rls09.zip is the zip file, I'm pretty sure. Could someone could either point me in the right direction, or upload a mirror of that kernel or one that works on AOSP? I would be so happy.

Thank you. I hope no one gets pissed bc I'm asking for a goodman kernel here on xda, all I need is the kernel, which is not on infectedrom or androidfilehost.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] sdwedemeyer:
My daughter brought her phone home with the WSOD. She said she had put it down and when she came back later it would not turn on. After charging for a while, it turned on and came up to just the logo. I can get to the Hboot but am lost after that. Just before the Hboot menu displays, i can see it checking the SD card for a number of files but none found. I have searched the forum and the thing is, it came with ICS, and all she has done was load AT&T provided updates. It has not been rooted and still shows locked. Every article I find about WSOD is from folks rooting the device. I am not trying to load anything new, just want to get her phone booted, preferably without losing her data. Personally, I am a Blackberry user and know all about loading new images for those, but nothing about Android. If i have to load a new image then I will try to figure that out, but the main question would be, what do I download to keep her running the AT&T version of ICS. Otherwise, I guess it is time to reset and wipe her data or take it back to the store (3 months old)

So has anyone ever had the WSOD without trying to root? What is the best way to recover from this?

Here is the top of my Hboot screen

after more reading that was my conclusion. Seems that every solution starts with unlocking which wipes the phone. I did ask her more questions and she conformed not doing any updates or even downloading from the app store so this phone just up and died. It should not do that on its own so even if i fix it, something is not right with the phone so I am taking it back.

This is a totally n00b question, sorry.

I put this on an sdmicro card as an insurance policy, under /clockworkmod/backups, stuck it into the back of the S3.

But when i boot into clockwork (from clockworkmod.tar), it doesn't see the sdmicro card at all - it sees the internal 32 GB as '/sdcard' and there doesn't seem to be a way to get CWM to find the one on the actual sdcard (even if I mount sd_external). Is there a way to do that on this thing, or just make sure you copy to internal 'sdcard' over usb? Which I've done now.

it seems that the location of the external is different now so that's probably why you can't see it in recovery
