[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Crinkypops:
Hi!

First off, I'd like to introduce myself. I am Crinkypops and I came from the Samsung Infuse and HTC Vivid/Raider forums and I recently got a Rogers (Canadian) S2 Skyrocket (LTE) sgh-i727r.

After trading my HTC, I was stoked to go back to Samsung as I have missed it so much. I have tested everything on the phone and everything is working perfectly. BUT ONE THING.

When I look at the "About Phone" settings, I see that the Baseband Version is "unknown." My data and Wi-Fi are both working perfectly, though, but I don't know if I should be flashing anything if this error is up.

What are your thoughts on this one?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jyazzie110:
Sounds like it has a modified radio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Crinkypops:
IMEI is still visible. I am less worried now.

So should I flash things? or no?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
If it's not broken don't fixe it. Either it has another device's radio flashed or the radio that flashed bugged a bit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Wow. Its been a while since I've seen the baseband unknown issue. Search the thread and find the rogers radio you desire and flash it. Or do a complete Odin to stock and reroot. Did you get the phone from another user or did you get it from your carrier?

Yup, sixasis is worth the $2. It's really like plug and play, just without the wires and you have to setup your touchscreen profiles.

But it's easy and it makes playing games a whole lot more convenient now without having to use my otg cables.

Tried it with friends PS3 controller, need only six axis app and a OTG cable. Also maybe someone knows if one can use the 3rd party controllers? 20 pounds is somewhat expensive for a controller(even a BT one).

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] waxtadpole:
I'm using Frankentab with a wireless keyboard/touchpad combination, hooked up via HDMI to my TV. I would simply like to change the mouse pointer from the tiny "x" to something bigger and more like an arrow. Are there themes available that do this?

If not, I've read that it may be possible to replace the png file in system/framework/framework-res.apk. I've looked through the apk but haven't been able to find a png of the "x." Does anyone know the name of the file in Frankentab, and would swapping out the file with a png of an arrow pointer give me what I want?

Thanks for any help.

Hi, so I can just throw my ICS Nandroid Backup over the JB rom I'm currently using with no problem? Is it this simple?

Sorry for the noob question, but up to now I have only flashed through Odin.

TY
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
Its that simple. Restore your nandroid and away you go.

You may need to change your modem depending on what JB ROM you flashed.

If it was some of the leaks then you will have a JB modem and I'm not sure if that will work with ICS.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DannyBrazil:
Hello,

To make a long story short

Probably one of my installed apps is causing this problem I have (app2sd)

A few days ago I always got this "force close" msg for ALL of my apps.

I decided to factory reset - although it worked ALL the apps folders were not deleted from internal memory

BUT the apps are not there realy, just the folders.

I did a hard reset, the same.

all the info on the INTERNAL MEMORY comes back after any type of reboot.

Tried to FLASH and reinstall the ORIGINAL STOCK. -- NOTHING it doesn't work, I mean the new installation is but the apps' folders are STUCK on the internal memory of the phone.

Any help?

How can I really format the internal memory? flash it totally? I can't even re install the apps again from market, it doesn't let me.

help?!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BADtoBONE:
Hi,

Is there an option to cancel the keys sound (while pressing) during calls?

For example when i put the phone on speaker or even in normal use, when i press the keys in order to write a number or send text, the other side in my conversation hears the sound too. Therefore can barely hear me.

They still get sound even on vibrate/silent mode.

Anyone have this problem too?

please help!

:good:

will it work?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] nemox92:
hi all, i have a motorola razr the uk version on t-moblie and i had updated my phone to ics leaked version blur_version.651.167.26.xt910.retail.en.eu, and my headphone jack didnt work anymore but long story short i tired to go back to gingerbread so i could send my phone to get repaired, biggest mistake i made so far. but now it wont boot, i dont think theres a rom on there anymore, it stays on the big red M screen then goes black, i can get to recovery mode and ap fastboot but when i try to put a new rom on it says e:validation failure i think it has system at the front of that. i havent had a phone for 2 days now its driving me nuts. so is there anything i can do to fix this??? oh im a noob at this so dont understand much of it lol :o

thanks in advance
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
Well, you're with your razr out of the charger 'bout 2 days now. You've probably a bricked device. [low battery. cannot program]

To flash an ICS rom (yes, you can't flash GB anymore) you'll need a factory cable.

Check dev section for an index thread and you'll find there all you need to put your razr working again.

If you have a phone jack defect you'll have to send it to motorola services. Just put the original system on it (ICS) send it and cross fingers. Most times it works. :D

Cheers
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nemox92:
i can charge it and from fastboot it says battery ok and ok to program, would you be able to put the link please? and thank you for replying :)

[Motorola Droid RAZR] absjf:
I made an active cable by cutting off the rubber around the micro USB jack on my RAZR charging cable. I took out the transparent plastic over there (it was a pain, the wires inside are not to be damaged in an ideal situation). Then took out half of that metal piece that surrounds it, its made out of the parts - a longer one which you will have to bend and a shorter one that comes off.

After that i took a wire and cooked it on the RED wire on one end, and the free slot next to the white wire at the other end. Then I took another wire and cooked it on the metal piece at one end and the multi-wire coat inside the cable at the other end. It took me about two hours, being extra-careful and discovering what to do while doing it (theres not much room for maneuvering inside the micro usb jack). That took care of my empty battery.

First i disected an old usb cable, opened up the phone and charged it directly (black wire on the minus pin under the battery connector, and red wire on the plus pin under the battery connector). It used to work just fine until a failed flash.

Regarding http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27987936&postcount=1

I received a popup about an upgrade, I accepted it, and it failed, because I'm rooted. I'm also getting Code 3 errors constantly and can not receive text messages post OTA upgrade attempt. I'm assuming they're related.

Are the files and methods in that post at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27987936&postcount=1 compatable with the upgrade my phone just downloaded, but couldn't install? I see the release and build dates are from May. Is Sprint only just now rolling out that code or is the post out of date and I'm SOL?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
OTA updates will usually never work if they do, you'll loose root. If you download that factory rom, I think you'll loose root also. When you goto settings, about phone, whats under baseband and build number? How large a file was the OTA update? Code 3 error, call Sprint, SMS issue. Call them BEFORE you flash a new rom, as dialer codes don't always work on aftermarket roms.

Regarding the error, call Sprint and continue to do some research. I've had to fix issues like this on my own as CSR only knows so much. As for the new updates, I'm sure the thread you linked to works.

I am rooted and wanted to update, so I downloaded a CWM zip from Zedomax and flashed it. Instructions are on there if you need them. Link below. This may fix the issues with your ROM, it may not. If you have CWM installed you could try doing a factory reset from CWM and then booting up to see if that fixes your issue. Good Luck.

[Motorola Atrix 2] voodoomurphy:
Hey guys... well I didn't want this to be another "**** you Motorola, I'M OUT!" thread, instead I wanted to let you guys know how I got my A2 replaced and say thanks to a few people.

I'm currently on my 4th A2 and this one is starting to exhibit all the same signs that the 2nd one did (audio from the speaker is bad, random restarts etc.) I've been with AT&T since it was AT&T then bought by Cingular then back to AT&T, so I have a little clout with them. I've also made sure to document with them every issue both locally here at the repair center and with phone support.

I called up AT&T 2 nights ago and went through the usual run around. I let them know I had already done a factory restore and all the other scripted steps and the problem persists. FInally I got them to agree to replace the phone. They initially offered me a Galaxy sII or an Atrix HD. The rep stayed on the phone for 15 minutes quietly and patiently waiting while I researched each phone's specs and reviews. I told them I needed to think about it and research each phone. I was none too happy about this because when I bought my phone I had an entire store to choose from, but now they were only offering me choices of 2 phones, neither of which I would have chosen from the current crop. I asked them if I could call back with a decision but the rep informed me that "other call centers" don't have the same abilities she did at this call center but that she could call me the next day at a specific time.

When she called back I explained my frustration again with only being able to choose from another locked down Motorola phone or a last generation Samsung, and politely asked for a manager. She put me on hold and came back to tell me that it was in the middle of a shift change and that the sole manager was on a call with another customer BUT she had asked him for another option of phone and he agreed to an HTC OneX. I accepted and they even waived the expedited shipping fee.

So I'm leaving this bastard device in the dust but wanted to say a HUGH thank you to to entire community before I left. Thanks to Jim, rdavisct, Apex-Strider, and everyone for being a great community that stuck together despite being abandoned by Motorola.

TL;DR: AT&T is giving me an HTC OneX because the Atrix2 is a steaming pile of poo, and thanks to everyone here for being awesome.
[Motorola Atrix 2] athani:
Sorry about your experience but it's not representative of the A2. You were just terribly unlucky to get 4 lemons in a row! Anyway, great deal you extracted for yourself. Enjoy your new phone.

Man you guys(customers in the us) are really kings! Cant expect anything like that here, even if its a legit problem they will tell you that there is a liquid damage and its not covered under warranty.. thats how bad customer care is in india.

I am sorry to say but it is kinda normal.... I have had 7 A2s now, 4 of them were my fault because of the BL stuff and the other 3 were just issues with the phone itself.

I bought my A2 new and NEVER had an issue that wasn't my fault (recently accidentally deleted the home launcher app so now I'm forced to run a play store launcher).

The only thing that bugs me bout this phone is that locked BL and no official ICS.... other than that great phone!

[Motorola Atrix 2] rodmc123:
I find hard to believe the histories of this people saying that they are going for their 4, 5 or even 6 device and all of them gave them problems, i think they just dont understand that android is a very unstable OS and if they install a lot of apps from the play store (a lot of them crash sometimes) and also are trying to install custom roms and other stuff it is obvious they are gonna get some kind of random reboot or any other issue, but that does not mean that the phone itself is bad.

now some people may kill me for saying this, but i think atleast untill gingerbread, android is far away from iOS (i dont know about ICS), say all you want that apple dont let you do this and that, but iOS is just a great OS, even from its first version was as smooth as "project butter" in jelly bean or even more. before i had my atrix i just had a "regular phone" and an ipod touch 4g, its been hard to get used to android. is a little laggy, the web browser is not even closer to the browser in iOS (i dont really care about flash) and the famous widgets of android are just crap, the so called super customization is not more that a bunch of ugly widgets on the screen that just make the phone looks "dirty" , windows phone gave a much better and elegant solution for widgets.

everyone is always hating on apple here, and there are some reasons to hate apple, i agree, but for the most part the iphone has been ahead of android phones since always.

there, i said it!
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Try being a dev and trailblazing and NOT bricking a phone. So next time be more careful what you say you are not talking to a bunch of noobs here. Your dev team is also here reading an helping...

You are about to be attacked alot worse than this by others so just be prepared!
[Motorola Atrix 2] rodmc123:
my comment it is not about the devs here, it is about an OS. i really don't understand your reply. i really appreciate the work of the android communities for trying to make the user experience on adroid better so if you misunderstood what i said, it was nothing against devs.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Big Dawg 23:
I had a similar issue with my HTC Vivid. In my case it was a software flaw that when you get into an edge area it trys to hit HSPA+. Like you they didn't offer me anything. I hit an AT&T Corporate store. The day I hit this store a district manager was there. At no point did I get mad just voiced my displeasure. They did me one better by allowing me to take any phone so I took the Note. I passed on S3 even. Given my HTC issues I wasn't taking the One X.
[Motorola Atrix 2] voodoomurphy:
yeah I got all excited for a second thinking it was Quad core. Even still, it's a nice upgrade that I don't have to pay a penny for and that doesn't extend my contract.
[Motorola Atrix 2] voodoomurphy:
My first A2 died less than a month after I got it. It flat out died, no power no boot up. Nothing. I took it back to best buy.

My 2nd A2 developed an issue after 4 months of use where any audio from the external speaker would distort worse and worse during use (I use my phone as a GPS unit. I'm new to Seattle.) and then eventually cut out entirely. I work nights and one night it did this to me on the way home. I had to detour from my usual route home due to massive construction. I didn't notice that the GPS had stopped talking until I was 7 miles past my exit.

My 3rd A2 had almost no WiFi connectivity. I could be sitting feet from my router and it would register almost no connectivity. I verified this with a WiFi analyzer, WiFiFoFum and speedtest.net.

My 4th A2 (this one) is starting to have the same audio distortion and is constantly rebooting. Not force close but a hard restart. AT&T sent me a battery first but the problem continues.

The Android OS is NOT an unstable OS, and for even suggesting that you've lost all credibility. I've played with custom Roms since my PocketPC days and I know when to screw with them and when not to. After my 2nd A2 I stopped with all of that except for rooting so I could install a few apps that require it. With my last A2 I've been COMPLETELY stock, not even a root to make sure that if there was another problem it was with the phone and not something I've done.

I have an iPhone for work and my A2 for personal use. Each phone is different but saying one OS is better than another is ignorant. They are tools that do different things, saying one is better than another is like saying that a wrench is a better tool than a hammer without giving the context for what you are using it for.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdhoggattjr:
