[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
It sounds like either the charger or the tablet's battery is defective. If you have access to a voltmeter, test the charger to see if it is outputting 10.5 VDC. As shown by the diagram on the bottom of the charger, the two center pins of the plug are used for charging the tablet, so connect a voltmeter to those two pins. The pin closest to the cable is the negative (or DC common) pin.

If the voltmeter indicates the charger is outputting approximately 10.5 VDC, then it is likely the charger is good and the tablet's battery is defective. If this is the case, the tablet will need to be sent to Sony for repair.

If the voltmeter indicates a voltage significantly lower than 10.5 VDC or no voltage at all, then the charger is defective. If this is the case, you will need to get a replacement charger, hopefully for free from Sony if the charger is still under warranty.

Having similar issue

I am having the same issue, sort of. I got my tablet the 08/08. As soon as I got it I updated to ICS, so I can't really say for sure if the update is to blame as I didn't use it much before the update. At first I got flickering on occasion on the screen. Like some random app, that I was not currently on, came to the front then disappeared again. Right now it is the 10th, at 1:32am and yesterday at around 4pm I had turned it off to go to the gym. I come back and it is not turning on. I set it on the dock and the green led turns on, and I manage to power it up. The screen though starts showing random messed up images like when you get bad reception on tv. I know the logo and power on clip it shows and I can see those colors but all warped. Then it disappeared and it showed the password screen fine and the screen was ok from then on. I lifted it off the port and it turned back off. I put it back on the dock and turned it again, showed the same weird images. When it was up fine, I went to battery settings and it showed the battery at 100% but where it says how much time I had left, it has 16secs. The dock and charger where fine since I got them. But I will check the volts.

Quick question, do I have to revert to stock everything and upgrade to official ICS in order to flash future official ICS ROMs?????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] superdanfan:
Stock and stock modem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
Only if you want to get it thru Kies

there is a .tar file in the main Official ICS thread that is used with Odin

Im not sure if I'm being misunderstood, I'm wondering if its necessary for me to upgrade to official ICS in order to flash future ICS ROMs?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
No one had official ICS when we were flashing CM9 AOKP or Paranoid Android

do some reading buddy

itll help but no you can come dirrectly from GB and flash an ICS rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
I get what you are asking, ignore the last guys comment. Yes, to upgrade official firmware you have to be on official firmware unless someone makes a one click odin for people to install. If there are anymore upgrades from AT&T you will have to be on stock Gingerbread or Stock ICS to do the official upgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
There is a .tar file to flash thru Odin

I'm running it and flashed it thru Odin

And I wasn't on official firmware

Kies is another option.

Read up before you bash ;)

The majority is flashing thru Odin and rooting thru Odin as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blackviper71:
Not true. I was on the CM 9.1 rom from hotwire, connected to kies and ran the update with no issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigmout:
I don't believe so, no. When you flash a custom ROM (whether ICS or otherwise) you should do a full wipe anyway, so being on official ICS is irrelevant.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
And the developers comment out or remove the signature checks for their roms so you can upgrade from any rom but samsung roms do a signature check and abort if stock rom and modem are missing.

So I have a lot of junk on the internal phone storage and want to wipe it

Last time I went and wiped the /data/ partition a lot of **** broke, but that was a different ROM/device/recovery all together so I have no idea what I'm doing now

That being said, My first guess is to issue a /data/ wipe because the SDcard is stored under /data/mnt or /data/media or something like that... or is it system? I know wiping system is bad for something

anyway, obviously dont know what to do so I'm asking... how do I wipe my internal storage? I tried re partitioning but that did nothing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ellimistx99:
^ This. I have a similar question. I'd like to a total wipe back to how I got it. (Well except my rom. I wan't to keep that)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheShoura:
I was thinking maybe a factory reset from the phone or fastboot erase <whatever the partition is called>

Not sure how to do it, but I've been poking around for an hour or so and cant find it :<
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Should be able to Fastboot erase system.img boot.img and recovery.img and then Fastboot flash system stock-system.img etc..etc.. then relock and unlock the bootloader and then relock it once more.

Don't quote me on this... I'm not entirely sure... first Fastboot device ever so... take that with a grain of salt.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FrostyF7:
Can't you just go to backup and restore in settings and hit wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheShoura:
Alright to clarify

I wanted to wipe /sdcard/ contents due to a lot of garbage. In particular, Google music had "cached" about 4GB of songs and wasn't using the cache on a new ROM

I also wanted to erase everything (full wipe) to install new ROM but that was different

I ended up trying

fastboot erase userdata

and had great success for what I wanted.

I did not feel that messing with the bootloader (locking it, etc) would help me at all as other's posted mixed results.

A factory reset from Android OS did not wipe the SD card

Using partitioning tools didn't work for obvious reasons

Nothing in CWM or ADB would erase (short of removing the /sdcard/ partition/mount under /data)

I haven't played with CM9 for a long time. How is the maturity of the ROM? Is it pretty stable or is it still kinda buggy. I remember the last time I used it, it had problems with viewing websites in landscape mode. Any outstanding problems with the ROM that should be fixed before jumping into Jelly Bean?
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
That's due to lack of drivers. It's otherwise pretty bug free. We just need some drivers to get it all working properly.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Its nearly release candidate quality. I too left for a while but recently went back to it and am in love all over again . The rotation bug has been fixed in the most recent update but at a performance cost. Most are reporting that the performance decline is negligible though. Considering that it has taken many months for ics to mature to this point, i would imagine that it would take some time to get jb stable. We are getting ever closer to proprietary ics drivers and kernel though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] radcode:
Hi guys I got double trouble it seems.

My USB device stopped recognizing my SGH-i727 skyrocket sometimes after one of the ROM installs. Reinstalled drivers, updated latest Kies switched cable, none of it made difference. Other phones work just fine but this one.

I found forum thread that recomended to change setting by dialing *#7284# and under UART and USB select PDA to re-enable that again. But for that I need phone to work.

My second problem is after I did latest ICS install I went into Rom Manager and it recommended to updated my CWR to 5.8.4.3 and I didn't know about bug in there not being able to mound sdcard. So now I can't reflash new ROM because of this and can't get USB connection recognized to fix it with ODIN.

When I boot phone into Recovery I can access sdcard once, it lists all folders and files, but as soon as I try to install ZIP I get E:Can't mount /sdcard error and installation aborted. Any ideas how i can get out of this jam would be really appreciated.

[Galaxy S III General] 123shree:
Nope AOKP is also built from source like Cyanogenmod.. :)

Wait... AOKP should be in the original section..I think ;)
[Galaxy S III General] mbroeders:
You're mostly right, but it's difficult where to draw the line. AFAIK AOKP for instance, also uses the AOSP source code, but incorporates many (if not all) CM9 features. So, is it based on CM9 or AOSP? You see what I mean?

I think it's safe to say that the original developers build their stuff from source (either pure AOSP or CM9 as a base), whereas most other developers use winzip (or extract APK's, but not using the source code). That's why I can understand why Checkrom is in the original section (using a self-made OTA tool). But it's mostly subjective and difficult to judge what goes where...

Running make doesn't make (heh) your work original.

So if I went and grabbed the CM9 repo and built it my subsequent ROM wouldn't be original. If I'd made lots of changes to the source code then built it, it would be original.

[Galaxy S III General] onslaught86:
Same sentiment here. Gets a teeny little bit tiresome seeing the same threads full of the same silly questions crop up year after year, but them's the XDA breaks. Suppose the S III is seen as more of a 'tick' hardware cycle where the S II was a' tock', seems there's a lot of people upgrading from the single- core generation prior to the S II.

I get the impression that the people who are confused by the difference between 'original' and 'common or garden' development are smack in the middle of the target audience for the LOL DONATE PLZ sorta-devs, too.
[Galaxy S III General] Meltus:
So... wait, hang on.

According to this thread, any thread that gets moved/posted to the 'Original' section is a work of art, a masterpiece, if you will and any ROM that stays in the 'Normal' section is laughable vandalism of the original work? That's... I can't even put into words how absolutely ridiculous that generalization is. When did XDA start actively insulting their developers? :confused:

Also, as per usual, anyone who makes modifications, fixes, hacks, etc., isn't considered a developer unless you zip it all up into a nice ROM for everyone. People are going to be turned away from the normal development forum (thanks to the stickied thread I linked to above) and are going to miss many other people's hard work, just because it's not a ROM, kernel, or recovery.

Don't get me wrong, I think making an 'AOSP style' forum and a normal forum is a good idea (to separate between good work and copy-and-paste developers), I'd just strongly suggest that XDA doesn't insult everyone in the process.

A better solution, in my opinion, would be to have an 'AOSP style' forum, a 'Normal' forum and a 'Mods/Hacks/Fixes' forum, but what do I know, I'm not a developer because I don't make ROMs... :eek:

(Also, the new smilies on here are absolutely terrible)

/Rant
[Galaxy S III General] Hacre:
Way to spectacularly miss the point, champ. Also if you want to start lecturing on how things are done, please get your terms right. It's "AOSP" not "AOKP". AOKP is a specific project centered around AOSP and CM with some of their own work tossed in.

If your work is in "Development" then it's a rehash of something that already exists. It has nothing to do with what kind of project it is, whether it's a ROM or a kernel or a script. If you produce a hack or a fix then it belongs in Original Development unless of course someone else beat you to it.

These aren't difficult concepts.
