[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s9amme:
Anyone experience this before? Lots of spikes and falls throughout the day. Look at my battery graph, it almost seems to be charging itself at times (especially around the 30% mark). I notice it goes up when the phone is in deep sleep, but when I use the phone, even with light use (texting), the battery drops quickly. About 1% every few mins. Then the battery starts going back up again once it idles. However, I'm still getting decent screen-on time, so i'm guessing its just the way my phone is reading the battery levels?? I'm certain its not an ICS issue either, as I saw this happen on GB a few times. This comes and goes with any warning and I can't seem to replicate it on demand to figure out the issue.

I'm going to try this calibration method and see if it helps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312273
[Asus Transformer TF700] GuestK00173:
Here is album app & photo editor from Xperia S and it actually works pretty good with TF700.

Only thing that didn't work was online albums (facebook & picasa) so i didn't include these.

Install directly or push to system/app (rw-r-r-)

I use hybrid ROM, i like to use CM9 notification bar with its power widget. How do i do it? If i copy past "systemUI.apk" its not work. :confused:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pikpok:
You have to port it, somehow. But I don't think it's worth it. For power menu with reboot/screenshot there are thousands of tutorials here on XDA, use one of them. With notification bar it won't be so easy, but you can try.
[HTC One X] shernning:
Not all the songs show up in the playlists of poweramp... the songs are in the phone, just not in the designated playlists. any solutions? :(
[HTC One X] iLHaNroID:
Check if your folders are selected in settings / folders and library / music folders, then rescan!
[HTC One X] shernning:
Yup i did.. all the songs are there just that not all of the songs are in the playlists
[Focus General] walletless:
My samsung Focus is about 1.5 years old.. I plan to switch carriers at the end my of contract since AT&T is giving me lots of dropped call at the new place we moved to.. The phone is obviously out of warranty, so I am looking to see if I can fix it myself.

The power button on my Samsung focus is behaving very funny lately. When I hit the power button with the phone awake, it thinks I did a "long press" of the power button and shows me the shutdown pull-down image! If I pull-up the image, the phone still reboots...

If I press the power button when the phone screen is OFF, instead of turning on the phone, it again shows the pull-down image, and the same behavior ensues - regardless of what direction I pull the image in, it shuts down the phone.

Some things I have already tried:

I have tried a hard-reset (camera+volume+power, and format the device), but the behavior continues.

I have removed my SD Card (I am using the AT&T approved one), performed hard reset, and problem continues

I have tried a different battery (from my wife's focus), and problem continues

At this point, I am guessing that most likely, the power button connector is loose.. but I am not 100% sure.. Any suggestions on things to try?
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Seems like the spring in the power button is gone. I suggest when you want to press it, lean the phone to the right (with the power button towards the ground) so when you press it, gravity helps popping it back.

Or replace the power button.
[Focus General] walletless:
Tried the first trick... didn't seem to help..

Any tips on where I can find a replacement power button and how I can replace it?
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
See my response here (and the thread referenced in my second reply). Seems to be one of the issues that appear in time... And in another case it was the battery...
[Focus General] walletless:
Thanks EnderPsp!

I have ordered a new battery for now to see if it helps.. its a non-OEM battery off eBay.. Don't want to spend too much without knowing if that is indeed the problem..

I can't find a power button replacement part anywhere... I went over the video and the instructions to reach the power button housing does not seem very bad.. definitely do-able if I can find a replacement part..
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
The button itself is plastic (you can find some on ebay), and I don't know how it works, actually (If it's a spring or otherwise).

I suggest you watch a take apart guide and maybe, just maybe it's just dirt, which you can clean.

You'll know more and afterwards please share the result with us.
[Focus General] walletless:
And now its completely gone... the power button won't respond at all.. the phone has been shut all day. If I take the battery out and put it back in, the SAMSUNG logo shows up for a few seconds and then the phone turns off again.. No way to turn it back ON using the power key..

I sat down to open the circuit yesterday only to realize that I don't have a #000 screwdriver... the smallest one I have is #00 which is too big for the 7 screws that hold the back panel :(

Off to Grainger today to see if I can find a 000 driver.. It can't get any worse now, so might as well open the phone!

Sure thing - I will update the post later with what I find...
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
You didn't say if the same happens with the wall charger connected.

Now, If you're going out, try and drop near a phone shop. Ask them if they can help you test with one of their batteries, either for a Focus i917 or from a Galaxy S i9000

Good luck mate.
[Focus General] Jfran71:
Dang i thought i was the only one with this issue...

Mine started acting up about 3 weeks ago and it was seriously annoying especially when driving. I would press the lock button to change songs, but it thinks i did a long-press and does the "slide down to power off" thing. Even if i swipe up, the phone would switch off.

Then today, i take my phone out my pocket to send a text and find it's powered off. Won't even switch on now :mad:

Ender:

Plugging the phone in does NOTHING. The screen remains black.

Reinserting the battery causes the SAMSUNG logo to appear on-screen but again, goes black after 4-5 seconds.

Holding down the power/lock button has no effect, it's unresponsive.

I'm so pissed off this is happening 6 months before my contract is up. -_-
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Don't know what else to say... I hope you still have warranty?
[Focus General] Jfran71:
Not extended no... :/

I've managed to get it into "download mode" now though, and my laptop recognises it as "SAMSUNG CDMA Technologies"... Huh?

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:45 PM ----------

If i have it plugged into my laptop,

hold vol down, power, and camera while inserting the battery i get to the hard reset screen. But then that disappears in the same 4-5 second window.
[Focus General] Jfran71:
Ok, it's working again... I left the battery out for a few hours (literaly about 3), then pressed hard on the power button, and placed it (the battery) back in the phone.

Let it turn on and then back off by itself, then pressed hard on the power button.

pressed the button normally, and it booted up no issues. So far works fine.

I expect this issue is partly the power button, and something else unknown
[Focus General] walletless:
Yes' same thing with wall power. New battery arrived and did not help. Went to a local cellphone repair and the guy said main board needs replacement.. he suggested to buy another phone since repair will be more expensive.. he said that he needs to remove soldering on the board reinforce an auxillary power button battery and resolder it in.. no guarantees and will cost atleast $150 :(
[Focus General] walletless:
Lucky you!! This seems like a common problem with several Samsung phones based on a quick google search :(

Also bummed that this happened with 6 months remaining ...Now I am somewhat stuck since I want to switch from AT&T due to call issues with several months remaining.. and dont want to buy one till wp8 is out...
[Focus General] walletless:
Just for fun... I am going to find a 000 screwdriver and try to re-jig the power button.. nothing to loose with the phone refusing to start anyway!
[Focus General] random_n:
For what it's worth, my power button had been getting increasingly creaky over the course of the last few months, and although not sticking, was requiring ever more pressure to operate. Also, the sound of rusty bedsprings every time I went to use my phone was getting somewhat embarrassing.

I found the sturdiest piece of paper that I could wedge in between the button and the rest of the phone, put a bit of PB Blaster on the paper, and wedged the paper in. The button has since been as good as the day I took the phone out of the box for a couple of months now.

*Edit: Should probably mention that the paper isn't supposed to stay in there - it was just used to apply the lube without soaking the phone.
[Focus General] xHotSoupx:
So its working completely fine now? No issues? I'll try that but im not hopeful.

I've been having the same issue, started yesterday. There appears to be no issues with the actual button itself, it doesnt appear to get stuck or anything to cause this, even without the external shell and just compressing the sensor itself.

walletless, you said that you tried reformatting it and everything? Damn. I was expecting it to be a software issue. I'll mess with the button mechanism a bit and see if theres anything weird with it
[Focus General] walletless:
Phone is dead :(

re-jigging and cleaning around power button did not help.. I ended up ordering a chinese knock-off of HTC Note instead
[Focus General] titanhydro:
Does any have this problem, but on a normal stock rom?

I was thinking it might be just custom roms, I don't think that would have anything to do with it

Its worth a shot though
[Focus General] kaspur:
My phone died last month. I only installed updates that came through Zune up to 7.5. I went into AT&T and they told me too bad because it was out of warranty. I called Samsung, and they wanted me to 'volume down, camera, power' reset my phone, which didn't work. Samsung told me to send it to them for $70 because I was out of warranty.

Instead I entered a developer competition for a Lumia 800 and won. Now I just have a dead focus, and a new 800. I'd still be interested if anyone finds out a way to fix the focus problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] fane1:
Sometimes custom roms come with apps that we dont use or need for our daily basis.And because we are reaching the limit of our Galaxy s phone with JB roms the slim you can get the better it will behave.

Probably most of you know how to do it but im bored at home so i decided to give you the way i do it.

This will applies to gapps as well.

First open the rom zip file with winrar or another zip app.Taking an example with helly bean base rom we have 3 main folders called Data,meta-inf and system.The one you should look for is system folder.Then open the "app" folder and you will see lots of apps that will be installed.

Now,what do you need and what you dont need?.For example If you use Poweramp or any other music apps you can delete Apollo,dsp manager,musicfx.If you use quickpic then you can delete Gallery3d.If you dont use live wallpapers you can delete live wallpaper picker and some wallpapers that sometimes are instaled with the rom.After this close the zip file and transfer to the phone.Then flash the rom like you usually do.

Hope i helped someone out there cheers :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightside_eclipse:
Greetings all.

I'm loving my AT&T GSIII, but there's one thing that concerns me: when typing an SMS or email, the screen will occasionally flicker while the virtual keyboard is in use. It's a very brief flicker, and isn't constant, perhaps one every few messages or so.

Anybody else with a similar issue?

[Nokia Lumia 900] Batt322:
I'm having the same issue, doesn't matter if I'm inside, outside, wired or wireless headset. Fully charged or plugged in. The echoing is getting worse, I replaced the SIM card, and nothing. So phone 4 is on its way.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jobe1273:
When in a call press the volume down button and set volume to 5 or 6. That solved my echo problems

Sent from my Lumia 900 using Board Express

Same here.. Turning in call volume down to 6 stops this. Back up to 9 or 10 people complain about echos on their end.

I have this problem as well.(about to get replacement no 3):( Turning volume down to 5 does not fix the problem for me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
I am asking because I got the 4.0.4 update for my razr and now flash is dead. It just won't work on stock and I don't want to flash a rom on it, because I have had hardware issues with it in the past.

After being on the phone with them for 2-2.5 hours. They said I could get a HTC Rezound, but not a S3. I don't really buy this can't have a S3 just because I got my phone last year crap. They are both 199 2 year and 599 Full Retail. ( That's a rip off for the razr, but I am going to try and use this if I can because I have all ways like samsung better. :)

If they are willing to give me a Rezound do you think I can/should push for a S3.

I am really not a HTC fan and love my S2, best phone EVER. I would like to know if this can be done or if this more like to end in epic fail trying to swap a razr for a S3.

Note's I have tried:

1) About 4-5 web browsers ( Fire fox, Dolphin, sky fire, stock Browser and Chrome.)

2) Factory reset

3) HTML 5 ( It work's poorly to say the lest when I can find it that is.)

4) Using app's for every thing and it feels like a iphone. ( I did not buy a phone like this so I would need app's that are not as good as the web site.)

Update: Got them to let me do the "impossible" yet again and swap a razr for S3. :)

I told them I would not take a phone with a lot less battery life and would flat out not take the nexus. I also told them that your online store say's it works with flash still and list ICS on there too. Well after I went into that, they put me on hold for a bit and bam I get a 16GB S3 shipping right to my house with a order # in a text msg to my razr. now waiting for the e-mail.

Update2: Got the shipping e-mail and will now be able to track the phone in till it's on my door step. Oh yea

Update4: Got the phone. OH YEA :)

Battery still not here yet. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jsb5388:
Flash works on the native browser for the S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
Ok just wanted to be sure.

Edit: does it come with flash and if not can you download it from the play store or side load it?

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobloblaw1:
Flash works fine. Flash doesn't work in chrome on any phone. A lot of sites are transitioning to HTML5 but compliance is very spotty, at best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Yes, it does.

I get a big kick out of demonstrating this regularly to all the iphone users I work with.......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
I know it does not work on chrome, but 3 techs working for verizon told me to try that. +100000000000000000 to the HTML 5 comment. That's why losing flash on my razr sucked so much and that I would not just lie down on this issue. Oh and even when I can find HTML 5.... It does not work/ very "laggy" on my razr. That update has really messed the phone up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisnosleep:
Can you use Dolphin HD on your phone? I think it supports Flash natively, if I'm not mistaken. Nice browser too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
That will not work, becuase the Razr OS it's self is the issue. It's doomed because motorola is crap. I with them for about over a hour and verizon for 2-2.5 hours. I tryed Dolphin, fire fox, Chorome. (Becuase they told me too) Then they acted like this was OK. BS verizon, BS. Flash does not end intill JB NOT ICS you ********.

I have to take the HTC or call back and try for a S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Updating your phone is supposed to add features, not remove them. WTF is Verizon and Motorola thinking? Why doesn't it support flash anymore? I'm with you.. what a bunch of assholes!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
They try real hard to say it's google ICS does not work with flash and that flash did it, but I got them real good one that one( Called them out BIG time on this BS). This ICS has broke more than just flash, call's sound like trash now, youtube APP look's like 240p on HQ and more.

Glad your with me, so are two store reps. I think tomorrow I will call again and tell them I want the S3 and I won't take a phone way less battery life (The HTC phone) or else... court time for braking a feature that I got the phone for. I know flash won't live forever, but this is BS.

I would have called today, but I did not really have the time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
You should get some of your fellow RAZR users to file BBB complaints.

Better fire some off to the FCC as well. Seriously.

If we don't stand up to Verizon, soon, it will be too late. That whole "speak now or forever hold your peace" thing.

They take our apps, they take our options and then they want to take more money. **** them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Relentless D:
What is it in the razr's software that is crippling flash. If you have flash player installed and a browser that supports it I don't know why it wouldn't work. Flash worked fine on eclair, froyo, gingerbread, ice cream sandwich and jelly bean on my old evo 4g...It worked fine on froyo &gb my my girlfriends old DROID 2 and it works like a champ on the s3. I just don't see how it can be dependant on anything other than the browser and flash player... Am I missing something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
They don't seem to give a flying **** and every time some one says any thing all the fan boy's kill it any way they can. My best bet is to force them to give me a S3 vs them fixing a update. I know I am never buying a droid branded phone ever again, that's for sure. You should herd the a-holes, talking like braking crap is ok, becuase flash is ending some time, but NOT now. You lazy BLEEPING crap holes.

P.S I don't know why it does not work too, the OS is a big mess with this update so that's likely why. Yes it is 100% stock by the way

Edit: can any one think of a better tile? thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stevenjcampbell:
whichever way you go it wont matter once your device gets to Jelly Bean... Flash is not on Jelly Bean at all unless you force it and even then it may not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Which, if all other Motorola's are any indication, won't see JB at all as Verizon will soon EOL the device and its encrypted boot loader, well, need I say more?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vorfidus:
It's their fault you became dissatisfied with the phone through the bull**** updates. Argue for the S3, it's the same price. Back when I cracked the screen on my OG Droid, I argued with Asurion and sure enough they sent me a brand new Droid 2 (due to them not making OG Droids anymore). Then when the Droid 2's power button gave out, I called up VZW and sure enough, after a good amount of hassle they sent me a brand new Droid 2 Global. I've only had my contract for ~2 years, and in that time I have had 4 brand new phones and have only paid for 2 (well, 3 if you count the insurance deductible, even then $90 was less than half of the then-current price for D2Gs).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
That's what I think too and I got verizon to see it my way. I got a text with order #, but not the e-mail yet. It was "impossible" due to limited stock and only S3 owner's could get a phone swap. I called bull on that one and would not take a lesser phone for there miss take not mine. This will be my 3rd phone and I have only paid for the first one that messed up and had to be replaced for over heating and data issues.

So now I will soon be joining you guys. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skater95:
Can you pm more info on how you did this? I have had 15 RAZR/RAZR maxx replacements and they'll give me any phone I want, besides the S3, so if you managed to do it, I want to be able too as well! Any help would be greatly appreciated man! :)

Sent from my Maxxed Out Razr!
