So my charging port is most likely broken, I'm going to take it into the store to try their charger/their battery. I'm really hoping it's a software issue and I can wipe cache/dalvik/stats and hope that fixes it.

If not then I'm going to have to try and hide the fact that it's rooted, go find a friend who a battery and then flash it back to stock to keep the warranty replacement.

Any advice (things to try and fix, flash back to stock before going to the store in case they notice and make note, etc) would be greatly appreciated.

Charging port? Unless that's some sort of root term I think that's a hardware problem. You might need a replacement.

Wish Apple was that cool. I JB'd my phone and they wanted me to pay $150 for a refurb when something went wrong while I was on stock. I figured I might as well shell out $50 more and get this phone.

hey guys i have a really bad sore throat and a cough *cough* .. any ideas / home remedies? ive heard about honey and salt water, but do you guys think flashing a new rom to my sr would help? i wasnt sure if some jellybeans would help or hurt my throat, its very painful...
[Off-topic] scootertrashtx:
It's a scientific fact that a new rom sure helps to speed recovery (I have the article here somewhere... can't seem to find it now) I don't know if officially condoned by Doctors though (most home remedies aren't, although most Docs will tell you that it won't cause any HARM if you try...) So, you've got nothing to lose. As far as WHICH remedy, you're on your own there...

Try em ALL, I do! (Jellybeans work wonders... although they CAN be habit forming)

LOL
[Off-topic] UZ7:
lol man never know you have it good till you lose it...

I had 40/5(8)mbps speeds back home...

Moved to my new apartment, they had free internet wooo... it was like 2-0.50/1mbps... and we're talking about gmail loadtime takes like 2 minutes and google's homepage taking more than 30seconds to a minute to load. Pretty sure its a shared service throughtout the complex and people probably be downloading porn :silly: ... peak times to watch a 5minute clip online you would have to wait 15-30min, go downstairs make some food and still not loaded lol... almost impossible to play any online games... and downloading will go 80kb/s.. 50kb/s... stops.......... 20kb/s etc...

But yeah, not much of a comcast fan but thats the only decent service around the area so now I'm back to 20/4mbps speeds...

Doesn't matter how fast your rig is but if your internet is slooowww you'll know :D
[Off-topic] prbassplayer:
Its not even the net speed. Its the ping! If the network is getting hit hard your ping will make playing online impossible. I've shared my net with 6 people at a time and OMG that made me lag so much
[Off-topic] UZ7:
Oh yeah definitely.. well the funny thing is the "free" internet my complex provides is hosted by comcast but I'm pretty sure everyone is on the same line and probably a economy plan service. And to make it worse its "wifi" but I have a really good wifi adapter and I get 100% signal so everything else is all on bandwidth use.

I can tell because on a weekend when everyones out partying I can get like 3-2/3-2mbps but when weekday comes or peak hours it goes horrible, took me like 30minutes to download a CM9 nightly!! lol

But yeah now I'm happy with my service. :good:

Before :cool:

[Off-topic] prbassplayer:
Damn I wish I could afford that kind of speeds. I'm running a 14mbs/"1.5Mbs"(avg out 750kbs) connection. Which is actually good compared to other providers here but wish i could afford one with more upload.
[Off-topic] UZ7:
hehe yeah well what I liked about brighthouse (road runner) back home is they upgraded us from turbo to lightning for free (20/2 -> 40/5) as for comcast... I just live in a really dense area close to the city so they up the prices crazy... like even the slowest plan was in the $30-40 range just for the internet, and since I'm a new customer they have a special on the speeds but I'm actually paying for economy price for half a year then maybe ill go down to the economy one (3mbps/768kbps) which probably isnt too bad for me since I'm going to school and I have to focus :rolleyes: but yeah maybe after graduation I'll get a new phone and faster internet!! :silly:

Actual price no offers:

3/.7 - $39.95

6/1 - $49.95

20/4 - $62.95

30/6 - $69.96

105/20 - $199.95

But once you're a current customer you can drop down to

3/.7 - $29.95

6/1 - $49.95

20/4 - $45.95

30/6 - $55.95

Speaking of internet att sent me a new modem/router combo today. Love only having one box to deal with. But it turns out that my modem wasn't the cause of why I would lose internet every few minutes. It was also a bad DSL phone wire. So glad I went that extra year of college to get my networking degree along with my web dev degree. There is no telling what att would have charged to run all new wires to everything in the home like I did today. Forgot how much work pulling phone and cat 5E cable was. Glad it wasn't here today like normal or my outside cable pulling would have been really horrible.

I also have the 3mb plan and in most instances its faster than cable cause as prbassplayer said no one else is on it. That's the one and only advantage of DSL over Comcast your DSL connection is dedicated to your home and your home only but no matter what Comcast says I used to work for them installing internet they may have one or two main lines running into say a subdivision and everyone in there is connected to those two lines so therefore the more online the slower it gets. Now that's OK if you live in a neighborhood where there is not that many who have cable internet. But you get 50 houses on even two or three lines with cable ,phone and internet then speeds will slow down

Problem is its probably another app using a android service. Best bet would to back step and delete any new apps you might have installed. OR if you changed usage in anyway (changed app settings)

There is a app in the market that tries to restores corrupted and deleted data. Not sure how much it will help

If it's not being read you might be hosed. I'd try some of the free file recovery software if you haven't already. If that doesn't work say goodbye to all your stuff on it and try to format it with MiniTools. But like I said you need it to be read by your comp before any of that will happen.

Just curious why you're on this forum. You have a stock android device and an iPhone?
[Off-topic] iandr0idos:
Some people can afford both.
[Off-topic] sly-tendencies:
Had an iPhone 4, some software issue happened where the mic wouldn't work with the stock phone app(but it worked fine with a third party app). I factory reset it and it only worked for half an hour. I jail broke it so the warranty was up and Apple wanted $150 for a refurbed one, but an older line on my network was eligible for an upgrade so I just gave my mom $200 so she could pay for a new SR.

I still tote my iPhone around because I have about 10 gigs worth of music on there and I don't like the Android music player. Plus, me having a constant use of both operating systems allows me to fairly judge them from up to date experience and not from things read online.

I find this forum 75% useful for finding out what goes wrong on my device, and this forum caught my attention because it was the only place I saw people knew how to root the SR. But to be honest, despite what you guys think having your only phone rooted/jail broken is pretty much a constant gamble. Something goes wrong, you'll either lose all data or be out of a phone. I'd consider rooting, but I really don't have the time to read and try out various roms or whatever so I'll just leave that area alone.

But am I breaking some sort of unwritten code?
