[Samsung Infuse 4G] Smokestack360:
Probably redundant but it helps to be specific and detailed so that the ones much smarter than myself can help you better:

You used Odin to do exactly what?

Flash GB bootloaders?

Did you follow jscott30's directions exactly? Like first using Odin to to flash something other than bootloaders.

Did you flash the tar.md5 file in the pda slot?

A bad bootloader flash can seriously bork your phone...sometimes to brick status but not always. But detail the steps you took and it will be easier for those around here to help you diagnose the problem and help you out.

Good luck.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Yoshiikim:
thanks for reply man

UUmm i used GB Bootloaders. I have rainbow distortion in recovery or in the boot animation. the forum on [ODIN][UCLB3] AT&T 2.3.6 Gingerbread with root and CWM recovery option - Infuse 4g told me to download. i followed this "You can download THIS .rar file, extract using 7zip, and flash the tar.md5 package in Odin (use the pda slot). Flashing Gingerbread bootloaders will correct rainbow distortion in recovery and in the boot animation. Only flash these if you are having issues with rainbow distortion, and only if you have had success flashing other, less dangerous items in Odin. If something happens to cause a flash of these bootloaders to fail, then you run the risk of bricking your phone. See THIS post and THIS post for more of an explanation of why bootloaders weren't included in the rooted UCLB3 Odin packages." and when i tried on odin it states a success and now rebooting so i let it reboot and now its not turning on

Hi all,

I just want to know whether it would be possible/easy to develop a function for android similar to "Quiet Hours" except have the timer set on airplane mode.

With this enabled or set to desired time-frame will have the benefit of longer battery, because the transmitter would be completely or partially off..

(Subjectively speaking) Less radiation levels emitted among us (cell damage) while we rest at night, as in most cases our phones are never too far from our reach some keep them under pillow I guess.

I've searched and found nothing on the xda forums related to this topic/subject of any kind, so there thanks for reading and I hope to hear some of your opinions on this, good or bad all are welcome..

PS: Maybe a vote poll can be arranged by mods to see how this implantation will score.

Have you considered the app Tasker? I've heard it's a pretty amazing application and well worth the money.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
I hear what ur saying and it sounds like a mod some would enjoy, but for us who don't want to miss a call or text we just add that toggle on our notification bar and whenever we want it, we just tap on it.... it takes 5 seconds.

And many ROMs have mods that allow u to control what u want to happen when "screen is off" perhaps u want data to turn off or wifi to turn on to save battery.

If ur not already rooted, i would suggest u do and check out different ROMs and their extras that the developers add

Good luck

Thanks for suggestions

Yes very good app for those who know how to take it's full advantage I found it too complicated especially for the task I want to achieve.

I wish I could just toggle airplane mode as you described in the notification bar but have the ability to preset it within it's setting, but android has no additional features built-in to airplane mode just a simple on-off flag.

This may very well be just what I'm looking for can't wait to give it a try!!

[HTC Sensation] 9595jakob:
Wipe it.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Have you tried using a different Rom? Can you get into your boot loader? If so perhaps try wiping and reinstalling a new Rom if problem persists try another radio and ril. I lost data connection once from flashing a recommended radio for a certain Rom, I restored my connection by finding a generic ICS radio/ril file. I first flashed radio, then matching ril and my data connection returned. You can give this a try before giving up. Use the generic ICS radio /ril combo as they are more apt to work easily. Sometimes it takes trying a few to get the connection correct for your area. I really hope this works for you! It worked for me when my data connection was wiped. I'm hoping it's a simple fix like this. If this does not work the problem MUST be internal. But do give it a try! It very well could work. I wish you the best! Also when getting radio don't forget the ril. Best wishes! Hoping this works for you!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaCeOff:
Hey guys,

I got a SGS I9000 here from a friend of mine who got it from egay (stupid, but nvm) and I try to fix the device but till now I was not lucky.

I want to upgrade to a newer / higher version but the "faulty" USB makes it very difficult.

Here are the facts:

- The device is running 2.3.3 Gingerbread

- Device Information: GT-I9000HKYDBT + PDA: I9000XWJVI , PHONE: I9000XXJVO, CSC: I9000DBTJV2

- Charging via USB does work, data connection does not work

- Entering Recovery Mode works

- CWM is not installed

- Samsung Kies is installed

- Entering Download Mode works

- External micro-SD Cards are being recognized at Android

- If I connect the device in Windows or Download Mode, the message "USB-Device was not recognized" comes up

What I`ve tried till now:

- three different micro-USB cables (original Samsung, HTC and Motorola)

- two different PCs with Kies installed and not installed

- Tried to flash via Recovery Mode but nothing is shown on the "external SD", even after renaming to update.zip

- Managed to copy files into internal flash but since the "original" Recovery Mode seems to have a verification, the flash process aborts either with

"E:signature verification failed" or "E:failed to verify whole-file signature"

- Odin of course but USB data does not work unfortunately so Odin as well

So the big question for me is:

Is there ANY chance to root/flash the device with the actual difficulties?

Any help or hints are highly appreciated.

Cheers

Don't forget to thoroughly clean your micro usb connector. I once had the same issue with my sgs. Different cables or drivers didn't work. I was about to give up on it, but then fixed it by cleaning it with rubbing alcohol and very tiny dentaid toothbrushes.

Afterwards it worked like a charm. Worth giving a shot, since these connectors collect a lot of dust/dirt over time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaCeOff:
Thanks for your fast reply.

I did mention this thread yesterday but after installing all different drivers, switching of the PC completely and disconnecting all devices, turning BT ON/OFF, switching between Dev Mode and MSD I'm at the same position as before.

Doesn't matter which cable I use, I just get always the same fking message about Device is not being recognized.

In the meantime, I got a 2nd SGS from a friend of mine which works perfectly after connecting the device with my PC.

It starts immediately with the driver installation and is ready in couple of seconds.

I also tried to put the cable carefully into the USB but it doesn't help either.

Any other suggestions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
That would mean, its your USB slot on the phone, that needs a solution, either you have to examine it very closely for damage to resolve it or its internal and you may have to change it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tchindalia:
hey

can u do to download mode??

if u can then upgrade using Odin...

And the uUSB issues cam with my SGS too,but after flashing the firwmare via odin there was no issues...i flashed 2.3.6 ValuePack..

U too can give it a shot..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaCeOff:
Yep, doesn't look good and now I'm quite sure this cannot be solved easily.

Well, as told above, I can enter download mode but USB DATA connection does not work!

So from my understanding, Odin only works if there's a valid connection, otherwise I could flash anything and would not have the problem :)

Mobile Odin does not work due to the root restriction.

Is there any way to flash another ROM or get the the device rooted with these restrictions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kigordid:
Stuck on First Screen

Well this is not an answer to the problem. Well am having the same problem as you, just mine is more complicated.

I managed to root using Z4root by copying the APK file on external sd .

I got cmw and entered recovery.

I updated using the CM10-unofficial rom that is in the development forum

I restored the nand that i did in recovery and now the phone is frozen (Stuck) on the first boot screen (Galaxy S GT-i9000 SCREEN)

Now I can go to Download mode but I can't go to recovery mode.

Let me remind you that my USB data connection is not working.

So now I am looking for a solution that would permit me to flash without USB or allow me to go to recovery mode.

Or a tutorial on how to change the usb port myself.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
As long as you can get to download mode, flashing should solve your problem after you resolve the USB problem , which can be due a number of issues.

Somehow ROM changes and bad flashes, may have pin configuration changes on the phone, (just like changes in combo key functions when you use different ROM) ...so driver changes works for some

So you may have to try all these http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571 options to get your USB connection back. But first break that cycle by removing battery and reinsert after a few min and check phone connection , and try those options.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subcultural:
Sorry to repeat my comment again, but if all these drivers aren't working for you, you should check your micro-usb connector. I'm pretty sure the connector is the issue here.

Have you tried cleaning the micro-usb connector on your phone? Don't just blow the dust out or clean it a bit with some paper, but go for a complete and thorough cleaning solution.

Get yourself some dentaid toothbrushes. Get a few sizes. You can get these at your local pharmacy.

Get some Cleaning / Rubbing Alcohol. You can find this at a handyman store or your local pharmacy should have this as well.

Dip the toothbrush with some rubbing alcohol. The toothbrush should be a bit moist but not dripping wet.

Start cleaning the connector. You can apply some pressure to clean everything.

If this doesn't work, no harm done. These things are quite cheap and rubbing alcohol and these dentaid toothbrushes come in handy when other electronics go bust.

Honestly, just try it! People always dismiss this solution attempt as a last resort but it's usually the problem fixer.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Damacles:
I am sure this has been talked about before when the Nexus launched.

I just got a new Nexus and I currently have Vicious JellyBean 4.1.1 on it and it absolutely runs great save for one thing. My signal is crap. At best I only show 2 bars (on 2 occasions 3). My 4G at best shows 2 bars. Now I also have a Charge and my boss a Razr, both show max signal and full 4G in the exact same areas.

This really annoys me as I knew of this issue when the phone first came out and there's still no official fix, all I keep hearing is that they're working on one and will have it out 'soon'. They've been saying that for over 6 months as still nothing.

So my question is this, is there any solution on XDA for this issue?

My phone is I515.10, I know I read somewhere here that there are two versions, the .10 and .09 and the .09 doesn't have this issue. Now Verizon will send me another Nexus, or Maxx, or Rezound. Yet I know there is no way for them to make sure if they send me another Nexus it will be a .09 one.

I really like this phone but I have to have reliable signal and hope someone can point me in the right direction to get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
AFAIK VZW has not yet release the baseband/radios for JB, that is why the signal is not as good as it should be with a JB ROM. There are more in depth threads about this if you look around.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Damacles:
Thank you for the info. I went back to 4.0.4 and still have the same signal issue. So I guess until VZ actually steps up and releases a radio fix, those of us with the .10 and signal issues are hosed.

*sigh* Depressing. I really do love this phone.

Hi, i have some questions about HDMI before making my purchase, since i never used HDMI or touched a HDMI cable before so i don't know anything about this :D, i only know that it basically "bring" the exact same thing happening on the tablet to another device (usually TV 'cause we want big screen), but here are my questions:

1. what hdmi cable do i need to buy, i heard there are many types of hdmi cable like mini hdmi, micro hdmi and hdmi,... so which one do i need to buy? and how do i know what type of hdmi does my TV use so i can buy the right one? (i know my TV has a hdmi "thing" but i don't even know where and what it is)

2. does this tablet really "bring" the *exact* whatever i'm seeing on my tablet to the TV, are there any lags or issues?

3. does it drain the tablet's battery when connected to TV, i think you can turn off the display on the tablet, so it shouldn't drain too much battery, right? if so can the battery last longer when connected to TV than using it regularly? if it does drain battery, do i need to plug the tablet to power to charge it (to give it power) while connected to TV?

thanks in advance, i know i asked a lot :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nahakiole:
You will need an micro HDMI to HDMI kable or an adapter.

ATTENTION not an mini HDMI.

I accidenticly bought an mini HDMi cable so watch out if it is an mini or an micro HDMI.

I first had the issue, that i also displayed the navigiation bar on the screen. So this is an 16:10 on an 16:9 Screen. When you go to settings there should be an Option for HDMI. To set the screen to 16:9 you just play with the 3d settings.

That way it worked for me and the statusbar

At the moment you can't turn off the Display while its connected to the TV.

But you don't need to charge it while its connected.

I always charged it while its connected, so I can't tell you much about the drain of the battery.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
1. If you're looking for a cable, check monoprice. I got a 15ft one for like $7.

2. It's mirroring, meaning yes, the exact thing.

3. The battery drain is little to nothing. I used it to watch a couple movies, streaming and nonstreaming, play games....it all came out to the same battery drain as using it normally. Maybe a little bit more, but not a significant amount.

It should turn off EVERYTHING wireless. That includes, to my knowledge, WiFi, GPS, NFC, and Bluetooth.

It should help with battery life - although probably very slightly. GPS/NFC/Bluetooth truthfully have very little effect on battery life as is, and WiFi isn't that big of a hog. But it certainly could help to eek out an extra few percentage points if you *really* needed it.
