[Motorola Droid 4] JasonOT:
No VPN connection.

I tried both by local IP and web.airdroid.com, and checked that the local IP is correct from both About>Status and my router.

If I try to connect just through Chrome, I never get anything. If I try to connect by scanning the QR code through my phone, I can sometimes get it to connect initially and bring my to the AirDroid desktop, but I almost always can't access contacts, messages, etc.

I tried port forwarding 8888 for my local IP, but that didn't seem to make any difference.

The strange thing is that my Touchpad works fine with AirDroid. In the past, I've had some odd Wifi issues with both my Droid 4 and my Droid 3, e.g. adding an Exchange account won't complete setup if I'm using wifi on either of those phones (on GB and ICS), but it has worked fine on Android devices without cellular radios (my Touchpad and Archos 101).

It appears like it's a network/router issue, but at the same time appears like it's not.
[Motorola Droid 4] Sjaakbanaan:
There could be a clue right here. Do you have a mobile data subscription?

If yes, then perhaps there are some very small WiFi drops which cause Android to try to connect to mobile data instead of WiFi, and the time it spends without the local IP might just be enough to impact AirDroid performance.

You could try the following:

Put the phone in Airplane Mode to disable all wireless connections

Manually enable WiFi - this is possible without disabling Airplane Mode

Now you are on a pure WiFi connection, no mobile data or Bluetooth PAN to interfere. Does that improve AirDroid's behaviour?

Also, if you know how your router works, you can give the Droid 4 a fixed IP address to avoid the IP changing when there is any network hiccup. Most modern routers usually seem to remember which IP they assigned to a device via DHCP anyway (at least for a limited amount of time) but it's worth a shot.
[Motorola Droid 4] JasonOT:
No such luck with the Airplane Mode/Wifi. I outright turning the cell radio off with Phone Info too, still didn't work.

With DD-WRT, my router will keep IPs and MACs associated, so it's not that the IP is changing.

If I reboot the phone, it'll work a little bit initially but eventually stop working and I won't be able to ping it either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MYthhh:
So lastnight i was flashing my phone to cm9 from 10 because it was to buggy for me to use right now... I used the rom manager like i have before, i made a backup so i can have all my data when i go back to 10 in the future, but something went wrong during the flash and it aborted, I flashed it myself in recovery mode after that and now it just hangs on the boot menu, I have the same files I used before and they were working for a good week or so. I was still able to boot in recovery and download, so i flashed the stock firmware, both the new ics and gingerbread .tars with odin and still it hangs on the boot menu.. I try to do anything in recovery mode like delete data / format, and It also hangs with a little android dude and a blue circle spinning. Is this repairable still? If not can i reset my flash count so i can take it in to att?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MacTheRipperr:
Try reflashing your kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Datron:
Also try re downloading the rom. Bad downloads are always the cause of my boot loops. Do u know how to check md5? If not, Google it.

Edit...

Also, to answer your specific question: I think it's prolly repairable by you, since it at least boots. Did u try pulling battery?

Search for how to reset flash counter. That info is def available. Although I don't think you'll need it if you perform a few basic troubleshoots.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baarney:
Hi all,

I'm looking at a Galaxy Tab 10.1 for a friend: everything seems to work fine except the screen is a bit stuffed. It really looks like the colour depth has been set to something ridiculously low, but I can't see anywhere to change this. See attached images of the stock wallpaper and the second test image posted by asolanki in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1603650.

I had to take pictures of these links: if I just did a screen shot and emailed the images then although the screen shot showed the banding / colour depth problem, the emailed images looked fine.

I've done a factory reset, but still the same. Could this be a hardware issue?

Model: GT-P7510

Version: 3.2

Kernel: 2.6.36.4 se.infra@SEI-30 #1

Build: HTJ85B.UEKMP.P7510UEKMP

Has anyone ever seen anything like this, or have any suggestions? If it's a software problem, could rooting the device and/or installing a custom ROM help in any way?

Thanks,

Barney
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruipalmeira:
Rest assured that is an hardware issue, and a screenshot (taken with the software) won't show us the stains on the device's display :) you will have to take a photo of the display and post it, so people can compare it, your best bet is to put that tablet on warranty service :|
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stillskin:
The same thing happened to my tab yesterday. I left the tab off during the night and when I fired it up this morning it was OK for about 5 minutes. After that the banding/colour depth display problem returned. It sure looks like a hardware problem. Not so good for me since i bought my tab in the US and the without the global waranty (I live in Europe).

SOLVED:

I removed the tab from its Belkin case and placed the tab in the fridge for 30 minutes. After that it looks as if the tab is OK again.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baarney:
That's weird - I saw your post and wondered if it was overheating, so tried the fridge thing myself. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me, so looks like it's stuffed! Oh well - hope yours stays working - a bit tricky to have to sit in the fridge to use it!!!

I was on cm9 latest build and wanted to try cm10 preview. so, I went into recovery to take backup with the latest 6.0.9 cwm but back up failed and later on I was on not able to see my sdcard and emmc in the recovery. when I tried booting the phone, it was infinately stuck on samsung boot logo.

I updated to stock firmware using pc odin and use repartition using pit file. odin update was completed successfully and the phone got past the samsung boot logo and after that its pretty much stuck on that and no home screen is loaded.

Can any one provide their inputs on how do I bring my note to life.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cerberus_tm:
Currently I am using Battery Monitor Widget to view how many mA my phone is draining at any moment. But I'm not sure how accurate it is. For example, after browsing on my phone for two minutes, it shows -80 mA. It polls/measures every minute, so that would mean that my phone uses only 80 mA with the screen on, which is impossible. When I turn the screen off, the recorded values will continue to drop for a few minutes, to 70 mA and 60 mA. If I leave the screen off, it usually continues to very slowly drop to 40 mA on some days, or to less than 10 mA on other days, or anything in between. Sometimes it does show realistic screen-on values, like -250 or -400 mA or so.

Any idea why it does this? What does it mean? My battery life is generally fine, about what I would expect based on what I read.

Do you know of an accurate battery-drain meter for the Galaxy Nexus, one that updates fairly quickly (like every minute)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
The nexus cannot output current mA readings due to the fuel gauge used. So those are just guesses from battery monitor widget. No app can help you, its a hardware limitation . Many HTC phones do this though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cerberus_tm:
A little bit late, but thank you for the information! At least now I know it isn't possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swid441:
So, I have not been a rom flasher but have rooted phones in the past and would like to get into flashing etc. Bought a international nexus used. Fired it up and noticed it said there was an update to 4.1. Went to installed and it won't install but is asking permission with clock world. So I figure it is rooted and probably has a flashed rom. I gave permission by scrolling down and it didn't work. It says it has 4.1 but if I factory reset it is not there and says I have an update. I noticed superuser is on the phone too. How do I get back to a stock ICS so I can get this 4.1 update? Should I just flash to 4.1? Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shintoroi:
Read the flash ROM thread in the gnex development section. It will answer all your questions. Its pretty easy just read the directions twice. Then read again. Then attempt and read while you do it.:D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swid441:
So if the previous owner had flashed a rom, does that mean it won't take the ota update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shintoroi:
You can flash back to stock actually. Or install 4.1 from scratch. The Roms are available on this site from Google untouched
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eqjunkie829:
You don't want an ota if you are rooted cause it will break root.

So, heres how my clumsy self skipped several heart beats today..

I was outside on the phone with someone, and had them on speakerphone. I needed a drink so, I told the person to hang on and instead of just leaving the phone on the table, or putting it in my pocket, I decided to put it on the railing, as indicated by the circle in exhibit A below. I got my drink inside, came out and grabbed the phone. It slipped forward out of my hand and fell to the "2" spot in exhibit B. After bouncing off spot "2" it fell down to spot "3". Spot "3" is about 14 feet from the top of that railing it fell off. NOT A MARK on the phone (or the case for that matter). I screamed as it was falling, like a little girl and stared wide eyed over the railing at its final destination. The screen lit up, and I could see from 14 feet away that it was not cracked... All in all I cant fathom how this wonderful collection of various technologies held together flawlessly. Its amazing, and makes me love my Note even more!
