[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] downhere:
If you install stock over CM9, you have to use the 512-pit file and repartition.

After you installed CM9 over stock and found yourself in a bootloop with that fast text, go back to CWM and reflash CM9 once more.

In case you get a bootloop now and can't enter CWM recovery, flash CM9 semaphore kernel using Odin, then enter CWM and flash CM9 once more. Try avoiding "wipe cache / wipe dalvik".
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jogibush:
1) install darky Resurrection package again.

2) download the latest cm9 nightly and flash it via cwm

3) grab the slim files and flash them over the nightly

Finish ;)

Hey,

Before I go any further, yes I have checked for other threads relating to the issue I am experiencing an could not find any that were completely relevant to my situation (I know how annoying and time consuming duplicate threads get! haha).

So I am with Telstra (Australia) currently running the 4.1.1 (JRO03C) Build. It is rooted and (Currently) running leanKernel-4.0.0dev14-jb. Prior to this I was running Franco's kernel. More or less, after waiting for Franco to push out a stable build for his mod, I decided I would try out the LeanKernel that is included through his Updater (So much quicker than the recovery way, I love it!). However, I just had to be unfortunate enough to do this during that 12 hour window in which the Franco Kernel Updater was experiencing a bug when flashing LeanKernel. After installing and rebooting, the phone would not start. It would just sit there at the splash screen, I set to work resolving it but ran into issues where the boot-loader was saying that there was no 'Boot' or 'Recovery' partitions. This was peculiar because I could still access CWM. So I eventually fixed it by pushing the Stock Kernel to it Via Fastboot and re-applying all the Bootloader and Radio images. (Another small fact, regardless of what Kernel I flash to it, it still seems to say LeanKernel.)

Now, the phone worked fine and Dandy for a few days, I did not even loose my data in the process - Was exactly the same as before. However just out of nowhere it lost signal. I immediately try powercycling it - did not fix the issue. So I then cleaned the SIM card and all the usual but it still could not acquire said reception (I also swapped SIM with a friend and my SIM worked in his without fault). I proceed over the next few hours feverishly mixing and matching all kinds of Radio's, Kernels, Settings, Supposed Patches and Fixes to no avail. The signal would come and go seemingly at will. I also fully reset the device and that did very little to improve the situation apart from render the phone slightly more responsive. And the thing is, its not as if it is saying it still has reception - the representation bars literally disappear completely.

Im at wits end with it, I had a HTC Dream when i was at school and spent weeks upon weeks figuring out how to carry out the Basics of a PowerUser Equivalent (Rooting, ROM FLASH, Radio's, Kernels, Overclocks, Diagnosing Software errors - the works) but this one has me gob smacked. Any help would be greatly appreciated, please let me know if you guys believe I may have forgotten a step or something obvious (Hiding in plain sight haha).

Thanks!

Anyone? Any feedback appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THEfog101:
Fixed.

Alright, So I waited for somebody to reply to my question but it seems like everybody has better things to do. Eventually I resolved the problem.

I take no responsibility if you destroy your phone by disassembling it incorrectly.

I exhausted all possible software related troubleshooting, so I decided to tear it apart. After following the iFixit Guide for disassembling the Nexus (ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Teardown/7182/1) to Step 7 and removing the Headphone Jack/Speaker Assembly, I then noticed that my Coaxial Antenna cable had been pinched by the plastic mounts that it sits in. Due to the way it had been pinched and where the mount was - I was confident in assuming that I must have dropped it one to many times (i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j345/THEfog101/WP_000002-edit.jpg) causing the plastic rails to compress the cable.

Due to the small size of the cable - it was beyond repair, however I did manage to get it partially working as a interim solution. I separated the plastic shielding from the cable and re-rolled the inner cabling to the best of my ability. I then re-applied the plastic shielding and sealed it in wax. After re-assembling the phone (i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j345/THEfog101/WP_000011.jpg) it was getting reception, however it did sporadically drop under heavy usage (Lots of Data Usage Etc).

I Hunted around for the replacement cable (Was a lot easier than I thought It would be) when I found a supplier in the US, it proudly stated it was for the global model so I was confident it would work with my Australian model (cellphone-repair-shop.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus-global-antenna-coax-cable/). It was a little bit more pricey than I thought, but it was still a heck of a lot cheaper than buying another Galaxy Nexus (~$500).

The Cable came (i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j345/THEfog101/IMG_20120828_171935.jpg) and I fitted it the next day, simply taking the old one off and replacing it with the one I received in the mail - nothing else needed to be done. Since fitting the new antenna the Nexus now receives full reception again does not suffer any drops in service. (i1081.photobucket.com/albums/j345/THEfog101/WP_000020.jpg).

I hope this helps any others that suffer an issue similar to this. Sticking it may not be a bad idea either - simply because I could not find any other DIY fix to this issue online.

P.S Sorry about the non hyperlinked URL's, it wont let me post them because I have not posted here 10 times, despite me having been a member for quite some time.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SarahKirschbaum:
why does it take so long to copy directly from PC to GS3 via USB cable?

(vs. using a card reader)

I tried several different 16GB and 64GB cards.(Kingston, Sandisk, Samsung OEM)

It always take longer whey copying from PC to GS3. When using a card reader,

it's always a lot faster....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwiftSmoke:
Im no expert but i think its down to the MTP connection system used in the gs3 rather than USB mass storage.

Try to use dedicated "USB mass storage" mode instead of mtp.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dave456:
New poster here and searched the threads but didn't find much relevant. Interested in knowing about anyone's experience with Samsung for the Galaxy Nexus GSM (Play Store). Mine has been horrid. My mic and ear speaker seemed to stop working. After searching found out the phone thought a headset was connected at all times. Seems like a common problem. Used an app to bypass but its annoying to turn it on and off so did a warranty return.

Sent it in the original box. When Samsung received it they said in the notes that it wasn't properly packaged. They also marked the screen and camera lens were damaged due to scratch. I knew about that. Simple keys in pocket issue but not worried about that. Normal wear and tear and my fault. Scratches are minor noticeable but zero problem.

A few days later I receive an email that they are now going to charge me about 200 to repair including the LCD. Said that the LCD had water damage. Its never been near water nor did I report or have a problem with the LCD. Called and got what I thought was their offshore support (which I had no issue with). When I said I did not feel a charge of 200 was appropriate and questioned the water damage they transferred me to the US to escalate. I had to call back a second time because the first was outside of central time hours.

Here then support rep was inflexible and almost rude. Said that they discovered water damage on the LCD. When I said the phone has never been near water, the screen worked fine, and in reported it for a microphone jack issue he said it didn't matter. They could tell it was water damaged from the type of damage (no idea how they could include this) and that Samsungs policy was they could only fix all or none. So it was $200 to fix a non broken LCD and presumably my actual problem (the headphone jack) or nothing. I said forget it, return it, and I would escalate it later. Got it back the following week. My box was gone... just returned it in the air filled packaging ,material.

Further the phone is now worse. They didn't put the screen back on well and little red tags stick out the front. Its uneven. And I found the proximity sensor is no longer working. And it doesn't always seem to charge. Has become nearly useless.

Going to call back on Monday and see what they say. Followed by a written letter then if that doesn't work may pursue legal options.

There is no visible water indicator. Nor did it ever get near water.

Thoughts? Anybody have similar stories with their galaxy nexus. Going to make me think twice about buying a phone through the play store. Already had problems with the nexus 7 but at least Google handles the returns themselves for the first 14 days.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lafester:
just have them fix it and then dispute any charges. much easier that way I would think.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MattSkeet:
Maybe not the same device but here goes.

I'm in UK . My galaxy tab 10.1 had a dust particle right in the middle of the screen. To be honest it didn't look like dust but something like white/cream gel type dot. Rang Samsung they said to send it and will check it out. Next day (less than 14hrs) got a plastic bag with bubble wrap and instructions what to do.

It said DO NOT SEND CHARGERS , MEMORY CARD OR ORIGINAL PACKAGING. Although bubble wrap was bit to short I've "wrapped it" in a piece of cardboard box.

Week later device has been repaired and sent back to me (need to go to post office on Monday to collect it tho.)

Now second device was my girlfriends galaxy s 2. De ice has a problem with USB port. And it impossible to switch it off as seconds later it powers on again by itself.

Rang Samsung. Guy was great had my details from previous device just asked me to confirm it. Also we can't find right proof of purchase. Asked him if we can send copy of the phone contract that states when device was bought. Now here is the best answer I've heard in my life.

" if you can,send it. If you don't have anything it doesn't matter we'll still fix it for you.". w00t.

That call was made at 5pm Friday (post office collects last letters and packages etc at 5.30pm). Saturday 8am got an envelope ;). And also in the manual it states; do not send original packaging although please send the charger.

Outcome of that one will be unknown as need to send it on Monday.

So getting your phone without a box is probably your fault. Secondly I would ring them and tell them that you only wanted to fix the speaker and whatever else and jot the screen as in your opinion it works perfectly fine so its unnecessary repair job and additional cost to you. Check some consumer laws if they can do that as well just to have some background in the fight
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theory:
Isn't the warranty for the play store nexus US-only? At least that's what I heard.

For all it's worth, I had very good experience with the Samsung service center here in Singapore with two locally purchased sets.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dave456:
Update

Thanks to those who replied. The missing box was the least of my issues...they asked that I send it in suitable packaging. I thought the original box would do. My real concerns are that they wouldn't fix my reported problem due to the alleged water damage to the working (and completely unrelated part), and further left me with a phone in worse shape (proximity sensor now non-functioning and the little red tabs from the non-properly sealed screen). I called today spoke to two people at the Samsung service center. Both listened, took notes into the system. Apparently because my original ticket was "cancelled" they lost most of the record of it. They suggested I contact an email for the "Office of the President" (providing the email). At least they were understanding and said that I had options. It was night and day compared to the original support rep that my issue was escalated to.

Will update again when I hear back from the Office of the President.

And yes, this was a Play Store Galaxy Nexus, so it does have a Samsung USA warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netscorer:
Office of the president? - lol!

They should certainly make it right to you. And don't believe that crap that they lost history of the original ticket. That is just some BS. If you don't hear from them soon call again and escalate to the manager and threaten to escalate even further. Remember that saying about squeaky wheel and good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dave456:
Quick update... I heard back from the "Office of the President" the morning hour I sent the email with the detailed background and request to fix the problems caused by the "cancelled repair" along with the original problem that I attempted to have fixed (headphone sensor). Said while they don't usually cover moisture damage they agreed to fix. Had a shipping label and all in less than 12 hours from my email. Got the phone back today...as good as new. They even fixed the scratched screen (which I wasn't expecting at all). In the end a happy customer and will buy Samsung again. Probably the situation worsened by the one bad apple support rep that refused to do anything but cancel my repair or take my repair without giving me an escalation route.

So if anyone experiences anything similar simply ask to escalate. They'll give you email for the office of the president :) where you can make your case.

"Mods" are really more ROM dependant than phone dependant.

So that means?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
He means that depending on what rom you have, you can apply various themes, status bar modifications, and the like.

Other than that, you can also change boot animation, install scripts such as V6 Supercharger, or modify things like carrier name or lcd density.

Basically a CM theme won't work on a Sense rom and stuff like that. Visit the apps and themes thread, there's some good mods in there.

Why can't my Tab 2 7.0 read exFAT 64GB card when my Galaxy S3 reads it just fine?

right now, my solution is to format both 64GB cards to FAT32 format in order make it work in both tablet and phone....
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] dr.m0x:
Seems to me Samsung simply put more resources into the galaxy s3 since it has a much bigger potential market than the tab 2. Tablets are still something of a niche item. While I wouldn't be without one now (it makes a wonderful e book reader) it doesn't really fill any needs for a lot of people. If you have a laptop and a smart phone already you don't really need a tablet, it's more of a luxury.

Also this tablet is made for the budget market. It's around half the price of the new iPad, and cheaper than some of the other androids on the market.

If it really bugs you a lot I'd be willing to wager that the 10.1" note will have exfat support though.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] moxlon69:
From my understanding most android devices care limited to 32gb, support for higher capacities has to be added in. Some devices can read 64gb sdxc cards and even fewer can read the 128gb sdxc cards. Samsung likely didnt add extended support due to the budget nature of these tablets, while their flagship devices, which cost more get the extra bells and whistles.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] imnuts:
It may be able to be added in with a custom kernel, as could alternate file system support.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] heihei_ivan:
As far as I know, exFAT is a proprietary file system of Microsoft, making it works on non-Windows devices the vendors may have to pay for that.
