Hi i've been reading alot of from the other threads in galaxy 2 and galaxy note regarding the super brick bug.

I just experience a boot loop issue yesterday was afraid that i was affected since according to the Got Brick and eMMC brick bug check our chip is also affected. I ran the check memory test for 10 minutes and it passed.

I wonder if were affected and what needs to be done to prevent the super brick bug.

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Ceelos09:
We are in fact plagued by the same ICS brick bug that other Galaxy devices have been experiencing. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the brick bug seems to affect devices flashed with *UNOFFICIAL/LEAKED* firmware. Officially supported ROMs seem to be the only exemption, although, I would still exercise caution in anything you flash. Keep in mind there's always a risk with flashing, and this brick bug just adds more to that risk. The issue has been looked at ever since it was discovered, but I don't think much has been found as to what causes it yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Terrandroid:
So, till then it's better not to flash i think? Untill this is sorted out?

hmm what about us who already flashed our tabs to ICS(open austria)?

do we need to downgrade to HC for the time being and wait for the official ICS thru Kies?

or can we still go on using ICS?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] giangp1:
Just don't use ICS recovery (Recovery 3e) to wipe data/factory reset.

Everything will good.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Terrandroid:
I'm gonna wait, i got ICS already installed trough Odin and it works well so far. Think i was lucky that it worked. I don't really need to flash any other rom (for now) until there is a fix i guess.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] aperture:
As far as i remember i reflashed to ICS thrice and did wipe data/factory reset thrice also under ICS recovery.

Do these hard bricks happen immediately or in a certain amount of factory resets in ics recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Ceelos09:
They seem to just randomly happen. Could be the first wipe, could be the 5th wipe, there's no exact number. These "wipes" corrupt certain partitions on our device, which is what leads to the hard bricks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ringnutz:
Trust me, it can happen the first time.. I found out the hard way, but it only seems to happen on the ics 3e recovery, I believe hc is fine

So if I understand correctly, only the stock recovery is affected, and possibly the temporary CWM. So, if I'm on the permanent CWM, I shouldn't have to worry, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] fozzir:
big Bro is watching...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] thghost:
wait.. what? are u talking about the stock ICS recovery? bcos ive done factory reset like 5 times now.. i havent had any issue so far regarding the bug. im running ICS (open austrian) version.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] samarth14feb:
Well I am totally confused. Now :/ I guess we are also affected as the d brick is related to exynos chip. Its still unclear how to avoid this problem.. I used the app by chainfire tto check vulnerable emmc Chip and it says mine is also under risk. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] msedek:
Well there's no "fix" from samsung as they won't recognize this because they say that wiping from stock recovery with no modifications and or root its safe.. That said they won't modify the MMC_CAP_ERASE command to only perform an insecure erase when wiping that's the way it was in gingerbread and honey comb. (Google made mandatory to perform a secure erase command starting from ics)

The thing it's that emmc chip can't handle the secure erase commands and while samsung keeps sending the secure erase command through MMC_CAP_ERASE procedure we will be in risk of super bricking the device.

Custom kernels (including cm9 kanged) should HAVE the MMC_CAP_ERASE command disabled in order to be safe and wipe all the times we want as by disabling MMC_CAP_ERASE the system won't performs any kind of formats or deletions...

I think that the only way to be really safe its either getting back to HC or flashing MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled kernels but seems like there's not much development for this device...

I haven't read/tried the CM9 kang but I guess I'll ask the developer if he can or in fact did disabled MMC_CAP_ERASE from the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Terrandroid:
So were stuck on danger bug for now. I hope somebody can create a safe kernel for this. I'm getting problem's with more force closes on apps but i don't dear to do a factory reset or wipe for clean install. Don't know what to do:(

Flash jelly bean/CM10 the CWM and the cm9/CM10 kernels has he MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled.. So you can wipe all you want safely

In order to flash cm 9 it clearly says perform factory wipe and clear cache.. I am using aaorths CMW 6.0.10 which he claims is safe. But is d combination of stock ics rom and cmw safe is the doubt. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Terrandroid:
If i wipe/ factory reset in CWM recovery and then flash stock ics with Odin pc, am i safe from bricking since Cwm has its own kernel so it won't trigger it?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Kuniokun:
How can we make a safe wipe/factory reset in ICS?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Terrandroid:
Here's what i did: i wiped using the latest CWM Recovery then i flashed latest stock ICS from sammobile with Odin pc. Then with Odin i flashed recovery again and got root.zip that i flashed again in Cwm. Now i got clean install of ICS. So i guess no danger with that, untill samsung sort's this out.

You can't change the model..

I'll advice you to not flash any s5830 rom for s5830L

they are different models, and i doubt if they have the same hardware.

Maybe just stay on 2.3.6: http://smartandroidsolutions.blogsp...ing-galaxy-ace-gt-s5830l-to.html#.UCD88_Ygdlw

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
Wrong, 5830 and 5830L are the same phone, released for different regions in different basebands.

Roms, kernels and scripts for 5830 work just as well for 5830L. If the roms are giving you crap, then you probably messed something up when flashing. Renenber to do the wipes before and after, use the appropiate cwm and follow the instructions (some roms require multiple reboots before becoming usable).

I have a 5830L, been flashing stuff for the 5830 for 8 months, everything works.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marguello:
response to dxppxd

Hi Dx, can you point me on the right direction? i think i've succesfully rooted the phone, otherwise i would have a notification from the cwm neeeded to get the superuser access, alas when rebooting i get the same boot screen from phone and not the cwm one. i've got the cwm from the android market.

i posted the link i got the get cm is this the right one from my phone? since you also have 5830L would you mind sharing me the cyanogenmod9 rom you used for it? this is not the first time i'm rooting and running cyanogenmod. i've done it in the past with a lg p500 optiomus one and worked perfectly. i hope you can help me. thanks

I had been using an ipod to listen to music prior to getting my charge. When i got the charge i coppied music files(mp3) to the data card. Since then i have never been able to get any music player to identify songs correctly with regards to genre.

I've used programs like itag to modify song properties. Also tried modifying properties via windows mass storage. I even tried clearing data from players.

What else can i do?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
have you tried Google Play Music or Winamp?
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Yup. I've tried both and given up all hope that it'll ever work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
I think a lot of it depends on the info settings for each song. you'll have to edit each song's info. I have read/heard of websites that will clean all of that up for you, but really did not venture too far into that.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mylesbeaumont96:
Hey,

My Samsung galaxy s2 will not receive or send any calls or texts whilst i have my contract virgin mobile UK sim in, the mobile internet still works fine though. I can use the phone with a 3 sim in even though it was locked to Vodafone when i got it, It's not a problem with the sim either, i can put in in other phones and it will work just fine.

I've tried flashing many different kernals and firmware in the hope to fix this problem but none have worked.

Some of my device info is here if its needed:

Model number: GT-I9100

Android version: 4.0.4

Baseband version: I9100MUGKG2

Kernal version: 3.0.15-I9100XWLPT-CL941023

Build number: IMM76D.XWLPT

Thanks for any feed back!

UPDATE: Whenever i enter the call settings on the device it won't let me enter call forwarding settings and additional settings, it' comes up with the message: Network or SIM card error.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Noob Dude:
Ok... Here's the deal. I actually have signal but its extremely weak.

IN THE HOUSE ( BEFORE: always signal 3-4bars, NOW: basically no signal) .

OUTSIDE (BEFORE: full bars, NOW : 2-3 bars with an occasional 1 bar)

DRIVING (BEFORE: basically full bars, NOW: fluctuates 4 to 1 bars with various dead spots, which is very uncommon)

Does this sound like a hardware problem, radio rom issue, or something i am completely unaware of?

Im also noticing that my phone is the only device that does not pick up the Wifi signal in the house?

UPDATE: No signal in the house or outside? Data connection is ON.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Noob Dude:
If i go to SETTINGS then go to MOBILE NETWORKS, it shows that DATA ENABLED is checked.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] amar1234:

Data Connection is on, BUT no signal reception inside and , now , even outisde the house. No matter what changes i make in "Mobile Networks", nothing changes there. Wifi scanning in the house is non existant but works in commercial settings that have an open source.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
You say before and after, but you don't say before and after what. Did you change radio, change ROM, change bootloader etc.? Or has it just randomly started happening?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Noob Dude:
referring to 7/5/12 and 7/6/12 to now.

Things ive done:

Problem started on previous rom. (coredroid) so i figured i would change roms and radio roms.

installed radio rom 2.15. but with rom change and radio change, still had current problem.

As of yesterday evening it would work somewhat consist when i was outside, but signal fluctuated alot.

The minute i got back into the house, i would lose complete signal. (very very rarely would it get a limited signal)

And today, i have only had signal one time. None outside. Is there a recommended radio rom i should install?

Or is it simply the sim card needing replaced due to abrasion on it. (one is being shipped now)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Noob Dude:
Trouble shooting #2

Swapped out the sim card and placed in my HD Desire and signal is fine on the HD Desire.

But still highly limited signal when the sim card is placed in the HD2. (basically no signal)

What can the problem be? Faulty antenna? Hardware issue?

[Fascinate General] MultipleMonomials:
Since I had to sift through a lot of cruft to find a root method that worked for the fascinate, i figured I should save others the trouble and test out the popular "universal" rooting options on ED05 Froyo and EH03 Gingerbread. None of the methods did any permanent damage to the test phone.

Root tool : Link : ED05 result : EH03 result

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SuperOneClick (ZergRush GUI) : here : Installed Busybox but did not give root : Crashed

GingerBreak : here : hung : hung

VISIONary : here : crashed and temporarily broke Play/Market : crashed

So, as you can see, Droidstyle's guide is the only working method I could find to root ED05 and EH03. Bravo, Droidstyle!
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
Most of those probably use the rageagainstthecage exploit. Which was patched a while ago and doesn't work for most stuff anymore. Easiest way to root is Odin clockworkmod and flash an SU zip.
[Fascinate General] gm2racer:
Yup, I recently tried rooting my stock EH03 and found that the only way that worked are the instructions on droidstyle's guide (Odin CWM and flash su.zip from the microsd).
[Fascinate General] Ragn:
I fought with my phone for a couple hours yesterday to get it rooted. Finally got it rooted on froyo but i had to switch the download source of where i was getting the stock froyo from. Then it worked great.

I tries Gingerbreak in the past and all it did is hang....
