[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Shuvo_bd:
u can try one last time and see if ur phone goes into download mode or not, do the followings- remove the back cover and battery of ur phone. now ask someone to place the battery again, while u press the combined key to go into download mode. now if ur phone goes into download mode then u have to reflash using odin. if not then its permanently bricked.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] namian_semazen:
okay . . i will try it . . thanks buddy . . but if it doesnt want to enter download mod means i must bring it to service centre . . hmm . .

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaherrrr:
I Need Odin for Nexus s with all files
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thommysenf:
Hello XDA

Again I need your help!

My Note is bricked (I think), because it always stuck @DATA.IMG or @DATAFS. So I found the way with the patched pit file. Whatever I'm able to flash ROM's with patched PIT and ODIN.

So I flashed a 3-part GB with custom PIT -> Worked

Than I flashed 1-part ICS without custom PIT -> Works (I did many reboots until "Install Applications" went away)

CF-Root + CWM for that ROM (LQ3) -> Works

But then when I try to flash a Custom ROM (I'd like to have Rocket ROM) with AbyssKernel (Which I flashed in CWM) the ROM flashes, everything OK. But when I try to boot, sometimes it's stuck @N7000 Logo or it boots and stucks @SAMSUNG Logo or sometimes the ROM even loads but hangs everytime or reboots all the time (Totaly unusable). But all that only with CUSTOM ROM.

Why I'm able to use the stock ROM's but the CUSTOM ROM's (Like Rocket ROM) aren't usable? Any help? :/

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thommysenf:
Any suggestions? :/ Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forest1971:
If stock roms work then custom roms should also work. Still the procedures to install custom rom may differ from one rom to another. And sometime a certain rom may not work for you. Should try one or few more other customs and it should work.

cheers,
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhasg1007:
Hii check your internal storage if it is around 8 gb, as you said you bricked then flashed with patched pit, then you wont be able to flash big custom roms, try for small custom roms or rather Asylum or PA rom or if you want TW roms look for rom which is under 400 MB.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praetorius:
from abyss kernel, do data/cache/dalvik wipe and reinstall your custom rom again.
[Thunderbolt General] crackedvenom2:
So today my phone fell into some garbage. I dont think there was any water, but after doing some googling, it seems that is one of the causes. After i pulled the battery out, the little circle is pure white but i do see a very little spot of red. Can anyone give me any tips? If its ruined, can i easily replace it? I just got this from ausurion a few months back. I dont really want to have to shed out another 200 for another phone. I put it in rice for the time being just in case.

I can turn it on, and it vibrates normally, and it vibrates when things happen. The bottom icon lights also turn on. So, just imagine your phone working, you just cant see anything.

EDIT: Also, i cant get into fastboot, recovery, etc because it is only blank. Should i be looking into a new screen?
[Thunderbolt General] blackjaguar25:
If there's water damage, it might be a lost cause, but if it's not, replacing the screen would be a much cheaper option than shelling out $200.
[Thunderbolt General] Zinsko:
It isn't anything to do with water my phone did the same thing. You damaged the wires going to the screen. Touch still works right. Do you have insurence?
[Thunderbolt General] blackjaguar25:
There are many different causes of problems. You can't be positive that it isn't a certain cause.

I've been flashing for a few years now. Picked up Super magic when it released. I flash several roms (flashoholic) and Super wipe everything but SD card x3. Last night when I flashed Classic 1.0p3 like many other times I had no market. Even redownloaded the file and wiped, flashed again. Still....no market. This morning I could not get passed the splash screen. All other roms flash fine. Anyone have a solution? Sorry bout the long story!!

[HTC EVO 3D] louforgiveno:
Since the og EVO, while in my car I use a audio tape adapter with the 3.5mm headphone jack to play music and use phone, and there has always been an echo audible on both caller/recipient lines......till I flashed newts rc1. And now there is zero echo for both parties.

Does anyone else connect this way, and have you tried a Ville based Rom yet and noticed any difference? Maybe its not "base" based, just my guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SmittyRN:
OK, here the story. My SGS2 started acting up a few days ago, it thinks it's charging all the time now. I searched and found that this seems to be a common problem with the port, so I cleaned the contacts on the microUSB connector, but it's not helping. I decided today that I'll just take it in since it's still under warranty, and I'd like to do it after work today since I live almost an hour away from the AT&T Store near the hospital. Problem was, I'm running AOKP on it and I don't have access to a computer with Odin on it where I can restore it to stock. Then I find the thread that details how I can download the .tar file and flash on the phone with Mobile Odin. Seems to work great, but it goes into a bootloop afterwards. One member posted that he had the same problem, but it was solved by booting into recovery and doing a full wipe. Here's where I have a problem now.

I can only boot into Odin mode, and it gives me the choice where it's asking me if I'm sure I want to load a custom binary or cancel and reboot. When I click that I want to load the binary, I get to the Odin mode screen; it reads

Custom Binary Download: No

Current Binary: Samsung Official

Downloading...

Do not turn off target!!

That's it. If I reboot normal, it goes into bootloop. Otherwise, it sits there with the battery logo showing, whether it's plugged in or not.

I'm pretty sure when I get home tonight, I can plug it in and get something going on my desktop, but I'd like to hit up the store before I head home. Anyone got any ideas or suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
If you can't boot into recovery using the three button method, I'm not aware of any way to put it into recovery mode without a computer. You didn't say, but I assume you used vol+, vol-, & pwr?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SmittyRN:
Yup, and that's what comes up. I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact that the phone thinks it's plugged in. I guess I'll just have to plug it in my desktop when I get home and work on it from there. Worst case scenario is that I just take it to AT&T tomorrow as it is, tell them about the false charging problem, and when I tried to do factory reset to see if it would fix things, this is where it's stuck.

I can't believe I spent the first 30 years of my life without a cell phone and now I don't feel right if it won't work for a day or two.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] drjim:
I'm having the same problem after trying to install S-Voice. You indicate that there is a way to get into recover using a computer. Can you explain?

Thanks.

adb reboot recovery

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SmittyRN:
Update:

I actually managed to catch it when it didn't think it was plugged in and do full wipe. It worked after that, sorta. It didn't think it was plugged in all the time, but it was still real funky; like the power usage curve started high, had a sudden big drop, then went up from there. Plus, when it was off, it would flash between a grey battery with a circle and a green on, back and forth. And I couldn't power it on unless it was plugged in. Once I showed them that, AT&T gave me a new SGS2. It's rocking Shostock2 now, so problem solved.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Brad387:
With talks of 4.1 of 5.0 being announced this approaching week at Google I/O, and hopefully us Note users getting it, I'm a little concerned for those of us on an ICS kernel potentially infected with the ICS brick bug. Will it be safe for us to update our advices still through Kies on stock firmware?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Akiainavas:
I'm pretty sure that if Samsung decides to build 4.1 update for Note they will make sure to eliminate this problem, especially now when they're aware of it and know what and how causes it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Brad387:
So, whenever the next update from Samsung comes out, be it 4.1, 5.0 or just some bug fixes for ICS 4.0, it should be safe to update?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] andreww88:
If it's an official update, yes. But, if it does mess up and you haven't done anything to void the warranty, Samsung would fix it (or should).

But, I don't know if we will get an update or not.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SpyderTracks:
From reading entropy's thread and getting an idea of what's been done before on other devices, its likely that Samsung will simply release an updated kernel without the emmc format command, thereby bypassing the issue, rather than an actual firmware update to correct the flawed emmc bug. If this is the case I would suggest it would be safer to first downgrade the kernel to a safe stock gb kernel before performing the upgrade.

That's all supposition though, until Samsung release an official statement we won't know what avenue they are taking. I really don't see why they wouldn't release a firmware update, perhaps it would mean everyone having to send they're phones in for the update to be applied rather than being able to do it through kies ourselves.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] break1:
Hey guys..

I noticed something weird on my galaxy s3. Whenever i charge my device till 100% and take it off from charger, it goes down to 99% immediatly. I thought it could be a bug in my current rom so i flashed another one. But the buf still exists. I even changed kernels. Still same problem. I am running latest foxhound rom

+franco r5 kernel right now.

Is there any solution for this bug?

Hope someone can help me.

Best regards
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
It is not a bug, that's how it is made.

If the phone charged to 100% and sat there for a long time, the battery would lose charge cycles and life faster. So what it does, is one of two things:

It will either NEVER actually charge to 100%, or

It will charge to 100%, take itself off the charger to about 95%, and then charge again to 100%, over and over.

HTC does the second one, I think the S3 does the first.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] break1:
Thanks for the answer.

I didnt know that. Its just so weird because on every of my previous phones the battery stayed on 100%.

But anyways thanks ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
I know, I don't like it either haha. Some phones will even say "100%" right off the charger even if they're not actually at 100%, which is why sometimes you see people that take their phone off the charger at 100% and a few minutes later they are at 95, etc.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goughymachine:
There have been a lot of questions about this in sammy roms, and also in the s1. And it got me thinking about it this way.

As soon as you disconnect the phone from the charger it's dropped to 99%. But in my head, I say it has had to have even used the most minimal amount of juice and is 'technically' no longer at 100%.

Some are saying other phones are reporting batteries on 100% for up to an hour after disconnecting from the charger. That might look great, but there is no way that is correct either, because it has to have used some juice in that hour.

Maybe samsung don't like pandering to the needs of the masses re battery use reporting. Maybe sammy is the only one reporting a correct level.

Me, I don't care. My phone lasts just fine. Are you getting better battery life than your last phone? Haven't I read that the 1x has ordinary battery life? Does it's percentage stay at 100% for a long time? If so, that would be a bit of a rip off to me.

I know sammy have included the option to show the battery percentage within the settings of the s3. I don't use it, and my battery indicator stays at 100% until the battery reaches about 90%. Works for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedyjay:

So a couple days ago i got a text from ATT saying that there was a new version available for my phone, and i am running ICS so i thought it was a small update or something i tried checking and i got nothing i was wondering if anyone else got that text? but thats not even my issue after i tried to update i cant view my text messages anymore it just says Loading... i had to download go pro and thats even very slow. Anyone know how to fix that? and yes i have tried turning it off and on. thanks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] StrangeShadow:
I got the text too, made me wonder if there was an updated to some of the noted issues.

But I didn't get the chance then to check it out or try it, and wasn't sure it was just the original ICS update message, cause I'm still running Gingerbread.

But it's one of the main reasons I logged on today. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bestialbub:
my wife experienced the same thing, but after the upgrade the baseband was still the latest att update for vivid (.56), nothing new.

never did check hers beforehand, but I'm pretty sure mine came w/ .56 (refurb from att) at the same time. I'd already upgraded my device to darkraider.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
I got the same message a few weeks back. I contacted AT&T Support. They said that 4.0.3 was the latest version. They did not say why I got the message. I suspect it was because I pulled the update using the special code (#*#*286*#*#), which does not seem to work any more.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henmartins:
As an iOS ex-user, I miss lots of apps that I used in iOS. One of the most important of them is Tweetbot.

I've been searching for a great Tweetbot replacement and the only tolerable ones that I found are Plume, Boid and TweetDeck. But I am being forced to use the terrible official client because of the push notifications. Those clients have some sort of "placebo" push, which is slower and is less battery-efficient.

So, there's my question: can I use another app to push Twitter mentions to my device? Personally, I've got 2 ideas: an app like Boxcar (available for iOS, developers say that they are working on an Android app, but it feels abandoned) or some way to redirect official Twitter's notifications to Plume when I tap on them on Notification Center.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] turdbogls:
something similar? i dont think so...not something that LOOKS like the asus one.

however, there are a couple things you can do.

i know for a face APEX launcher Pro has the option to put an "iOS" style unread bubble on the gmail icon on you home screen.

then there is the stock gmail widget which gives you an unread count in the upper right hand corner. doesn't look as clean as the asus widget, but it is a very functional widget.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
I don't see how rooting in itself would adversely affect battery life. All rooting does to the system software is install another binary (su) and an app (Superuser). Neither one is going to affect battery life, so I'm sure there must be some other factors involved.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] couldusehelp:
Rooting your Kindle Fire will allow you to better manage running apps/processes, which will actually IMPROVE your battery life. My biggest tip for saving some juice: if you're not using it, turn it off. This includes apps, the play/kindle store, the backlight, and most of all, WiFi. It just EATS battery.

Also, try not to let your battery get too low. Draining your battery past its reserves will reduce your overall battery life. Hope this helped :)
