I am not able to enter my SD card.

Its showing damaged SD card error on notification bar.

Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Try inserting it in some other phone and see what happens.

If that doesn't work, try using a card reader and check on PC.

If the PC reads the card, copy the contents onto the PC and format the card. And then use it in your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
Bro my both internal and external SD card are damaged and I am not able to see them and also I am not able to format them, my PC is also not showing them.:mad::mad::mad:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
What did you do that the cards got damaged? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
I don't know I was surfing on net and then suddenly my phone restarts and then this all happen.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Are you rooted?... See if you can access your Ext SD from CWM. (install zip for sdcard).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
I m rooted.When I go on next SD through cwm it says can't access.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Well that only means your Ex SD has been damaged for good. Was it in warranty?... (BTW even internal SD can't be accessed via CWM?)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
No my ext SD is not in warranty and not able to access even internal SD also.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
What about your phone?... Is that in warranty?... What happens when you connect your phone to PC in mass storage mode?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
My phone is under warranty and when I connect my phone to PC in mass storage nothing happens.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Best option would be to flash stock and take the phone to the Customer Service. :p
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheSG:
That's what I was going to do.

Okay, so...

I have network locked phone on 2.3.3

i want to root and ofcourse, to use it's abilities, flash cmw and sime nice custom roms (like cm7,2). now i want to know are there any risks of screwing my network and basically entire phone. how big are chances to hardbrick my device (brick that can't be "fixed")
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prash_:
actually no big risks unless u do something u r not pretty aware of...

rooting is essential to get full potential of ur phone's hardware..:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
Risks are minimal. There's always the small chance, even when you do everything right, that the flashing process goes wrong. That being said, only on a few specific cases the phone won't boot (rom manager) every other problem can be fixed by flashing again.

The most common problem is people just flashing random stuff without reading: a rom made for another device, using the wrong tool to flash, etc.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnnoyingZlatan:
Okay, so point is:

If I follow the rules, nothing can go wrong. But if something goes wrong, that can be fixed by reflashing.??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manvendra05:
Yes in most of the cases :D

U should just read before doing anything ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackstard:
No risk at all,always remember to doesnt use ROM MANAGER or our ace will join the brick state.

use this script to do FULL WIPE. It deletes EVERYTHING :) Make sure you copy your rom files to the your sd-card.

I did everything like task29, replace the sdcard, install rom ship, fix permission, wipe dalvik, a2sd, no a2sd, dalvikcache to sdcard... but hopeless

Can someone tell me that where i can find the setting of mic on root, i just know 2 location that /proc/mic_level and /etc/initd./10mic_level

Tks all in adv
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ayyu3m:
i think it is a hardware damage. since you have installed shipped rom as well, it means your mic is suffering from a hardware failure.

beside the fact that HD2 mic and speakers are infact very low quality.

I said that had up rom ship then up android rom, romship in WM is ok, the problems is mic not stable, and often low, not all the time, just ra flash rom or fix permission and wipe dalvik cache it will be ok, but be bad after 1-2 hours in standby mode

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tr4sHCr4fT:
hi guys,

i got a K17i miniPro, now have to choose the right Firmware

my usage will be: mainly Trillian, some daily-use Apps, OSM Navigation sometimes.

so i dont need eyecandy-blingbling fullysocial integrated Walkman stuff; so i dont want a Stock ROM

i very love CM 7.2 (Android 2.3.7) on my Ideos X3, but i heard CM9 should be more better

so... can you tell me please

what combinations are you using?

how are you using your phones?

and how long does your battery last finally?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BlackArtsInc:
Well,I m on MESA 1.6 Kernel and Stock ICS ROM at the moment and battery life is pretty good.

It ranges between 16-18h with heavy use up to 36-40h with light use of the phone.

They key thing is getting rid of all the bloatware that stock ICS has,plus using profiles as far as CPU

clock and Governors are concerned.I m sure that you know all the other tricks like a lower than 50%

screen brightness and Synch OFF and stuff like that.

Hope I helped.Good luck! Experiment and you ll find a good combination of settings.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] usman_fareed:
before installing any custom rom you have to first unlock bootloader then after flash underclock to increase battery lifetime :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] samajid:
I did read somewhere that rage kernel is the best for getting the most battery life! Gnna try it soon !

Also use smartassv2 as ur governor with noop ... Underclock ur processor a bit

( I use mine at 834 MHz, runs smooth) ..u can always bring it back up if u feel like your phone is getting a little laggy.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] hafizimtiaz:
I have tried both CM7.2 and CM9.0 RC2 on my XMP. CM9.0 RC2 still has some bugs. I have installed it twice. It boots ok but I have got two severe problems. There is a weird screen at the very first boot which tells you to input SIM lock key. I couldn't get past this screen. Another time, the launcher didn't load no matter how many times I rebooted.

I tried CM7.2, the ROM is very good and usable. But I don't know why my battery drains too much fast. I flashed the ROM while my phone was fully charged and also wiped the battery stats. But no good, the battery drains way too fast.

You can try kamarush's MiniCMSandwich Lite AOSP with Rage kernel or Krsh kernel. Very good ROM with very low battery drain.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BlackArtsInc:
I was using CM9 Stable on my XP Mini for the past week.

Battery life sucked really hard in comparison to MESA Kernel/Stock ROM.

We re talking about 10-14h for a full charge using Data (3G).

I m back on MESA/Stock again.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] supersoul07:
Try Extended stock kernel with miniCMsandwich lite.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
CPU max: 768mhz min: 249mhz

I lowered voltage by 50mV for all frequencies with "system tuner"

Governors: scary, smartassV2, interactive, brazilianwax. SmartassV2 is the most popular all around governor.

I'm also using "perapp" application. It allows me to set different CPU frequencies individually per application. e.g. when I enter a demanding app, it upscales the max CPU freq to 1ghz...

Try to use a light ROM, or simply remove bloatware manually.

Consider GB since it's less resource demanding, less lag and faster then ICS.

Xtended stock kernel{ICS} by expeacer has a good batt consumption. Rage for GB&ICS also.

For CM7, you can use ported Rage kernel by user greenalgae.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creesch:
Ok just to be clear: I am not asking what people think is the best method, please take a look at the questions

If nothing goes wrong with the delivery I will receive a Samsung galaxy s3 tomorrow :D. Since I want to root it I have been looking for available methods.

With some googling and looking around on xda I found several tutorials (of questionable quality I might add. Is it so hard to link to developer pages instead of a mediafire link that might be outdated a month later? ) and methods.

So far the most common methods I found are the following:

- The Samsung galaxy s3 toolkit

- Chainfire's CF-ROOT

At first glance cf-root seems the most straightforward method. I am however wondering if there are any drawbacks, for example; I see some issues with cwm listed and also no busybox(isn't this included in most roms and shouldn't I be able to install it from the market as well?)

The toolkit seems to be the most feature rich and to me it looks like the third rooting option is the most complete one. However I am not able to find a nice summary/manual for the toolkit, it might be so user friendly that such a thing is not needed but in my experience such a thing never is. It also seems that I end up with factory default phone with this method?

So my questions are basically as follows:

- Are there are big differences in the methods I found?

- Which method is preferable?

- Any drawbacks I should know about? (I know about the flash counter)

- Am I overlooking any better options?

P.S.

I am not new to rooting and custom roms. Just new to doing it with samsung phones ;) a HTC Desire has a slightly different rooting process.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slking1989:
The rooting toolkit is so easy. Idiot proof
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
cf all the way, flash counter can be reset by using triangle away then flashing stock,
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creesch:
Ok just to be clear: I am not asking what people think is the best method, please take a look at the questions
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
I repeat again...cf is the best method, safest, cwm issues are generally with 6.x.x.x, the whole #1 of the toolkit is one big instruction book....and all this can be found and deduced by searching and reading, I did...Why can't you? ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creesch:
I did gather indeed that the toolkit is indeed a....toolkit and can be used to flash cf-root as well if I wanted to. But the toolkit also includes a rooting method.I am having a hard time actually finding any factual data about the workings of the two methods and their differences.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
by now you could have rooted and tried a couple of roms ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creesch:
Really tnx for reading... I am getting my phone tomorrow and I am doing some research in advance (like stated in the op) and make a educated decision. I do appreciate the help but I am really trying to find as much information as possible. And so far not a lot of people can give me any factual information about the differences and all I get is "method X is the best because it worked for me!" Which basically only answers the question what method prefer but not why they do so.

So for people overlooking it these are my questions regarding cf-root and the toolkit:

- Are there are big differences between the methods?

- Any drawbacks I should know about? (I know about the flash counter)

- Am I overlooking any better options?

Yeah it seems really easy to do, a lot easier than my desire 2 years ago :P

FYI...

If you buy at Wal-Mart, they offer a $20.00 two year plan and a $28.00 three year plan.

If you buy at Staples, they offer a two year plan for $150.00

If you know of other sellers who offer an extended warranty plan, please provide details.
[Nexus 7 General] kpjimmy:
Squaretrade on the $249 usd 16gb is $23 plus applicable tax. There is an optional "accidental" coverage for an additional $27 for accidental drops, liquid spillage and some other scenarios. For 2yrs of coverage as well.

This warranty is transferrable if you happen to sell it or give it to another person (why?! lol)
[Nexus 7 General] K.AuthoR:
Walmart's isn't bad for an extended manufacturer warranty - iirc Asus gives us a 12-month warranty for the same things (defects, power surges, etc) so $28 for three years is actually a hella good deal. Staples', on the other hand, seems like a ripoff. $150 for a $200 tablet?

Squaretrade

I got the $39 Warranty from Squaretrade (website now shows $49). Had to mention that I saw the $39 price and that it said that price would expire Aug 17th, and they gave it to me.
