This is understood but if you do a factory reset and reboot the phone, the cache will be rebuild before plugging the USB cable and letting Samsung's software recognizing the phone to update the firmware. So a factory reset before the fact doesn't make a difference. If I was using Clockworkmod it would be a different story and yes I know the importance of wipes.

No there is a known hardbrick bug with the stock kernel, it doesn't affect everyone though. It burns out your emmc by doing a wipe in stock recovery. Learn your facts before spouting stuff like that off.

Please refrain from posting like this - DEV Thread

I am not sure what is the intention of your post.

a) If it is a "bug report", you are missing a lot of information...like logs, etc. Let me quote the OP: "This is the format for a bug report: “XXXXX isn’t working. Here is how to fix it: [INCLUDE SOLUTION]” Don’t have source? Too bad. You’ll have to wait then."

b) If you are just looking for support, well then: "You get none. Zero. Zip. We obligate ourselves to providing nothing further."

Please remember, this is a DEVELOPMENT thread, please treat it as such and instead of making posts as this, refer yourself to the Q&A forum, or the General section to post on an existing topic, or make your own topic with questions and/or support related topics.

The latest Hulu+ android app has support for our devices. On TW the latest app works perfectly. I cannot get the latest update to work on CM9 & AOKP because it results in a DRM error. The changelog for AOKP M6 says it fixed any DRM issue but I still cannot get Hulu+ to work on the latest CM9 & AOKP. I can use the hulu mod apk (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1449110) and it works okay but i would much prefer the latest UI and update. Any ideas on how to fix? :confused:
[Atrix 4G General] aretwokay:
I had this phone given to me because the screen was cracked and I was just gonna replace it and sell it...But there seems to be much more wrong than expected.

When I boot up, no combination of buttons that I hold down will bring up any kind of menu that I've read about. It will boot all the way up past the Motoblur boot animation and enter Android to the lockscreen, but then it will automatically reboot and won't let me even start to unlock the phone. So that means I can't enable USB Debugging, I can't check which software version I have or anything like that. What are my options? Or is this thing just a cracked paperweight...
[Atrix 4G General] upndwn4par:
Not bricked. Otherwise you wouldn't see boot animation. If rebooting while holding volume down doesn't show fastboot, you have some serious problems. Maybe a broken volume rocker.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] itstradition:
Hey guys,

I have a problem: I restored my Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE i727r to stock (I had it rooted but for some reason it lagged so much that I decided to restore it back to stock Gingerbread). Anyway, I want to update to ICS through Samsung Kies but the thing is that Kies does not recognize my phone. I believe I actually know why... When you do into stock recovery mode (by holding VOLUME DOWN button at startup), a normal phone is supposed to say:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I727R

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO

CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

However my phone says this:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I727R

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES(4 counts)

CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM

1) How do I change this back to the way it is supposed to be (like just out of the box)?

2) Does this affect my warranty with Samsung? (despite the fact that my device is NOT rooted (confirmed with Root Check Basic))

3) Why did this happen/ What is this?

Any response will be appreciated :),

Thank you very much guys! I'll be waiting to hear from you! :)

You tripped your counter because you didn't use an official stock rom... It was modified

If you download a real rom from sammobile it won't trip the counter.

Or... Use the counter reset hack

here's another question?

the yellow triangle is it always there? i never noticed before if it was there or not but i see some programs that will get rid of it but really do you need to? i cant remember if my brand new never been flashed phone showed that triangle or not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
No the triangle isn't supposed to be there. It's from flashing unofficial firmware in Odin. Reset the counter and flash official stock firmware.

chiming in here, i never realized it but i had a 1 count for CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD, , i dont know how long i had it because ive been flashing since i got the phone in april, and that message is so damn small i couldnt even see it, but i think i always had the yellow triangle when keeping the volume down button, but its not there when actually entering download mode when hitting the volume up button, which is where the custom rom counter is.

so i reflashed stock rogers via odin, it does "not" reset the counter

flashed twrp via odin then flashed flash_counter_reset.zip

went back into dl mode still yellow triangle on the first screen(warning screen)

, second screen(when hitting volume up) the odin counter now states "NO"

so does any1 for a fact has no yellow triangle when entering dl on the warning screen.

i would like to post this info on my sticky

edit: i always thought the yellow triangle was a warning b4 getting into dl mode of flashing a custom rom not that you did flash a custom rom, would the warning yellow triangle turn to a red stop sign if the counter was tripped, lol

[Trophy General] TrophyUser123:
I recently bought a used Verizon HTC Trophy. I registered it on Verizon and it works fine, both voice and data.

I suspect it may have been a developer phone. If it is I don't mind, but I do mind that I cannot update it using Zune. It keeps telling me that an Update is available (Mango), but when I try to update via Zune it fails with error 80180048.

The phone particulars are as follows:

OS version 7.0.7403.0

Firmware revision number 2305.06.10310.605

Hardware revision number 0003

Radio software version 1.52.00.01.16_23.13w.05.06U

Radio hardware version 3.2.3.D4

Bootloader version 1.3.230506.10

Chip SOC 2.3.0.5.6

The phone also has the following apps installed, which is why I think it may be a developer device.

zGestureBester

zSensorView

zServiceTools

zStartKIGL

Finally, when I turn the phone on it shows the bootloader version and the modem version in the uper left corner of the HTC splash screen.

I am wondering if the bootloader version (or firmware version) is keeping me from upgrading. I took a look around the internet and did not see any references to the .10 version of the bootloader, but I did see post which mentioned that the wrong bootloader can mess up Zune updates.

My preference would be to revert to a simple consumer phone, but at a minimum I'd at least like to be able to get the Mango and HTC radio updates onto the phone. Any suggestions would me much appreciated, and sorry for the noob post.

Thanks

I started using face unlock on my phone after the ICS update (I am completely stock). In general, it works pretty well. But in low light situations, or outside in direct sunlight, not so good. I've tried the setting to improve it, but it won't really recognize a face if the lighting is too low.

Anyone have any tips on improving how it works?

Thanks!

[Nexus 7 General] Skillz1318:
Excellent review! I also have always known that Android has had a tough time competing with the iPad which has definitely dominated the market for multiple reasons. I still have my iPad 2 and will use the Nexus 7 solely for the week and if I don't miss the iPad it will be sold at the end of the week. Right now after having it for around 8 hours I couldn't be happier, but I will see if I miss any iOS apps.

Screen is great and really loving the 7" form factor. I use my iPad exclusively in portrait mode and do so with the Nexus as well and it works great!

[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
One thing I know for sure is that my iPad will se a significant drop in usage now that I have the Nexus 7. I used to think that the iPad was the perfect size for a tablet, now I'm not so sure. I am in absolute love with the N7 and I know it's not just a honeymoon thing. The size of the N7 is sooooo much more convenient than the iPad and is way more comfortable to hold. Like you said though it's all those awesome iOS apps that I will probably miss and for that reason I will not get rid of my iPad (especially because of Land Sear Air Warfare, what an AMAZING game) but for sure the N7 is going to become my primary tablet.

Nice review :)

I'm trying to decide between the Xoom and the Nexus 7.

Both are the same price and each have their pros and cons so not an easy decision. Especially since I already have a 5.3" Note in my pocket.

Decisions, decisions.

Any advice?

Cheers :)
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
Honestly, I really don't like the Xoom in the slightest. I played with one again today and it reminded me about how much I hated it. The screen is pretty crappy, the thing is heavy as hell, and performance is terribly sluggish by today's standards. As far as I'm concerned, if you want to go with a 10" tab, the iPad is the only option worth considering. If you want a 7" or just any Android tablet in general, the only one that I can comfortably recommend is the Nexus 7 and that is a wholehearted recommendation. At this point, I don't think anybody should consider buying an Android tablet unless it's an N7 and even then they shouldn't consider it- they should stop wasting time and buy it already :)

Go with the Nexus 7 man, guaranteed you are going to love it.
[Nexus 7 General] K1LLER HORNET:
Cheers, thanks for the info.

I recently sold my 64GB iPad 2.

Won't be going back to Apple. Good app selection but can't stand how they operate.

Just seen a review of the the Xoom's screen, pretty poor to say the least. Simply terrible viewing angles.

I think I'll take your recommendation and stick with my N7 pre-order :good:

Can't wait.

Thanks again :)
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
Yeah, I hate the way Apple operates but I love the hardware and the game selections. No way can I get rid of my iPad.

No review can fully convey just how bad the Xoom's screen is. Especially if you are coming from an iPad, you will HATE it.

Good read OP. Just pre ordered from gamestop earlier.
[Nexus 7 General] sRDennyCrane:
I'll add that the Nexus 7 will be a secondary tablet for me. The lack of an internal memory card slot, hdmi port, a rear camera (with flash), and other things relegate this to a part time toy. My Acer A500 is my workhorse. It has 80gb memory, reads barcodes, has the real estate big enough to read schematics at work, and has 2 USB ports... one full-size.

Don't get me wrong, I'll get a LOT of use from my Nexus, but not for work, not for on a trip where I want to display media on a projector or flatscreen... essentially, not for serious use. It's going to be a great reader, great for streaming, great for browsing, etc.

I now have a choice of viewing options- a 4.3" screen on my Razr Maxx, a 7" screen on my Nexus 7, and a 10.1" screen on my Acer A500. There's been times I wanted a larger second device with me, but the Acer (especially with the case) was just too damned bulky. This opens a lot of options. And, yes, it does fit in a pocket when you're wearing cargo pants :)
[Nexus 7 General] flintfirewalker:
I don't know dude, almost sounded like the only thing you liked about it is the price (and the form factor, but that will be a non issue once iPad mini comes out).

Most of the time your review almost sounded sarcastic, like your using this review to reiterate how awesome your iPad is ..."Yeah, I like so and so about n7, it still sucks compared to my glorious iPad, but it's cheaper, so I'll pretend it's fine".

As for your so-called "facts" about one thing being better than another, you might wanna start substituting "facts" with "in my opinion", coz there is such a thing as personal preference.

How do letters, words, sentences, boooks look on Nexus 7 compared to the New iPad? I need Nexus 7 to be an ereader most of the time.
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
I compare it a lot to the iPad because that is the gold standard for tablets. Make no mistake about it, I absolutely love the Nexus 7. My only complaint about it is the screen and even that is a minor one. As far as the price is concerned, all it does is sweeten the deal and make it that much better. If it was $100 more, I would pay it without thinking twice and still proclaim that it's a great deal. And as far as all my "facts" are concerned, they were all said in good hearted fun. Pretty sure everyone else picked up on it because you are the only person who is complaining. Sorry my review wasn't up to your standards.
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
Damn good. This thing makes for a great e- reader. More so than the iPad because of its far more convenient and comfortable size and weight. All my reading will be done on my N7 from here an out.

[Nexus 7 General] Eclair~:
I honestly thought you were quite serious when you made those "fact" statements. The way things are worded are very forthright.

Good hearted fun does not pulse through these words. The way you reiterated and then emphasized the word fact made me presume that you were being very serious.
[Nexus 7 General] alias3800:
So what if he was? It's his review and a damn good one, and he can opine as he wishes. Plus, all the things he mentioned in comparison to the iPad are correct, when in regards to Android and lagginess or tablet build quality. Jelly bean and the N7 are definitely steps (or leaps) in the right direction.

Jelly bean (on the Galaxy Nexus) has made me stop considering any other phone for the moment and reeled me in. This review is fantastic and probably netted Google another N7 sale tomorrow morning.
[Nexus 7 General] Eclair~:
I never said I disagreed with any of it, I never said he was incorrect in his opinion, I never said that he should have came off less seriously, and I never said I did not find the review fantastic.

I was simply pointing out that the statements he made did not sound like they were in "good heartened fun". I'm not quite sure why everyone appears to be on the offense here.
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
It's all good man. I did the review for fun, and generally tend to be a sarcastic sonofabitch, and I sometimes feel like I'm being light hearted with my comments even though I don't come across to others like I am. My bad, not yours. I definitely do stand behind the things I said, but they weren't meant to come across as so "I'm right, you're wrong. Blah blah blah." We're all here for the same purposes and are all on the same team so we should just try and have as much fun with all this as we can. I'm glad you liked the review. Cheers bud :)
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
I'll do it tomorrow after I roll my lazy ass out of bed.
[Nexus 7 General] alias3800:
Yeah I didn't think they were either, I think they were just honest. He probably said that to avoid feeding any iOS vs. android debates and sticking to the topic at hand.

Speaking of which, how would you say the tablet handles pdfs? Good enough for extended reading/studying?
[Nexus 7 General] _MetalHead_:
The things I said were definitely my opinion but the manner in which in said them was supposed to be sarcastic. Obviously everybody has their own opinion and I welcome other people to tell me theirs. I will quickly tell them they're wrong it it differs from mine but that's neither here nor there. :p

I haven't viewed any pdfs yet but I'm sure it handles them fine. I'll check it out tomorrow.

>my iPad is used almost exclusively for games. The problem is, it’s just way too big for some...On a 7” tablet, it’s flat out perfect

I think this is the 7-inch's greatest advantage over a 10", e-reading aside. It's also why I think there'll be an iPad mini (and likely an MS Surface mini). Portable gaming is huge. Nintendo and Sony should plan ahead.

>Google states that we should be getting about 8 hours out of it with “active use” and that seems fairly accurate, as long as that “active use” isn’t 8 hours of straight Shadowgunning because I promise you it won’t make it that long.

Most reviews' rundown test use video looping. Teg3 has dedicated circuitry for H.264 decoding, so runtime for video playback (when HW accelerated) will be longer than "normal" runtime. In other words, the reviews' runtime report are exaggerated. "Normal" use should be a mix of web browsing, video, and 3D gaming.

3D gaming is the worst for runtime. Using other Teg3 devices' reported runtime as a guide, it's around half of "normal" runtime.

>I am thoroughly impressed with what Google and ASUS have done here and I am FINALLY a fan of Android in the tablet world.

I think N7 will be a rallying point for Android tabs. But 7" will be a popular segment, and it'll have major competition from Amazon and likely Apple. Looking a bit further ahead I also see Microsoft joining the fray. I wouldn't be surprised to see an MS 7" tab next year.

Q: I want to charge while using N7 in portrait mode on a stand. I have this stand which allows clearance for an angle adapter. Can you see if N7 can charge using an angled adapter with a USB-male to USB-male cable?
