[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] tehrectifier:
Just got mine today: 16gb white from Amazon.

I ordered it Prime, and I believe that means, at least in this case, that it was sold by someone else (assumably someone reputable since amazon trusts them) but that the delivery was fulfilled by amazon.

One seal was broken while the other was still partially intact. IMO, it's not a result of the shipping process rather, the box was definitely opened. I dont know if this has anything to do with it being a return or not because everything looks completely brand new and untouched with all plastics still in place, etc.

I powered it up to find ~60% of battery life remaining, which doesn't say much, AFAIK; I thought this was the case with any and all devices to have a little juice left in them? FWIW, I received a Tab 2 10" two days ago, clearly unopened, and that had ~50% juice as well.

Also, as someone above mentioned, I think my software has been upgraded as well. I'm running 4.0.4, which I didn't expect. However, I'm unaware of what the default was supposed to be.

In any case, I'm totally pleased with the device, opened or not, and I am definitely keeping it. I TRUST amazon, completely! If I should have any trouble down the road, then that's what their A-Z Guarantee is for, and their AMAZING customer service. I buy anything I can from amazon for good reasons.

Albeit, I don't know why the box was opened but, I don't believe it had anything to do with shipping, and I doubt it was due to a return. My best guess is that it was something to do with updating the software, as I bought a Tab 2 7.0, the day it came out, which was ridiculously buggy when I first got it, to where I hated it. However, once I was able to upgrade to 4.0.3, it was like an entirely new device, as smooth as ice, and even more so now that I'm running AOKP's JB. I don't know why or where in the process from production to shipping (to the end user) someone would be employed to come along and break a seal that clearly states for the consumer to refuse to accept the item if the seal is broken, only to follow such a simple and automatic procedure as updating the software. Then again,more than half the people I know probably don't care to be bothered with something so simple, and likely don't realize the power of android.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:
I've had no upgrades, seals were in tact, and I'm at 4.0.4.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] lm that guy:
Guess I was one of the lucky ones. My seals were intact :good:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] tonyleeloveyou:
why there is only 16GB version in China!!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MNDaveC:
Seal was broken on mine from Amazon also... bought it when it first came out for US, so it must have been Amazon peeking inside before they shipped it ??
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:
Doubt it. Depending on how it was packaged and shipped, one or more of the seals can get damaged. If the 100 or so little pieces of plastic are still in place and all is okay, you should be fine. My seals were very stressed, near breaking, and it was very poorly packaged.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] larsheat:
Same happened to me with my Amazon order
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dja2k:
Just got my Note from Adorama and the seal on the package was broken too. Hey did you all remove the plastic clear stickers around the tablet? I did, but now I wish I would have left them for extra protection, but maybe over time they would just fall off.

dja2k
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] lm that guy:
Yes i removed them hours later once i noticed them on, i did think About leaving the back Cover on though. But I Wovldnt Worry About broken seals though as long as everything is intact as far as all the Plastic being On the device wit no bubbles So its Never been Tampered With.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dja2k:
Yeah it had one broken seal and all the plastic around the tablet was there untampered with. I am putting the tablet in a TPU case, damn I should have left the plastic on it for added protection, too late as I got carried away removing all of it haha.

dja2k
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] inmnbob:
I just got mine and both seals were open so I am sending it back
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] junrider:
Mine were both broken too.... but all the stickers were in tack and there was no visible fingerprints .. are the seals that easy too break? Im not too worried about returning the tablet it if this is happening to most of the tablet being shipped.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] azturbomini:
I received mine and the seals were intact. The seals did look like they were close to being broke though. I personally think the seals break easily during shipping and the tablets are fine.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Grant H:
Just got my 32GB from Amazon today and the seals were busted through as well.

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] beyourselfman:
Hello,

I noticed an empty directory at /mnt/sdcard after installtion of CM9. All of my data (internal storage + external storage) is now in /mnt/sdcard2. Here I see folders like 'Android', 'data', 'DCIM' etc., which I actually expected to find in /mnt/sdcard (internal storage location). In addition to that this folder houses also my data of the external storage, i. e. my sdcard.

As soon as I unmount my external card, the folder /mnt/sdcard2 appears to be completely empty, even the content of the internal storage is gone. Moreover, the folder /mnt/sdcard is also empty. Where did this data vanish?!? Strangely enough, the rom works just fine apart from the aforementioned problem.

Is this the default behavior or did I go wrong during flashing/setting up TWRP?

Best regards,

Michael
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] eighty-four:
Check what is set to default storage in settings - storage/memory (depending on locale). Possibly something went wrong when you tried to change it.

Internal storage is stored in /data/share

OK, I'm hoping a late night and blindness are just setting in or that I'm just being dumb but...

I don't see a thread for CWM or any info on where/how to get CWM and get it installed on the Player 5.0.

Searching CWM was mostly useless, as it's in every other post. Searching recovery was similarly fruitless.

Any help?

How about the new Jelly Bean ROMs for the Galaxy 3? Maybe (hopefully!) they have this issue fixed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Qukel:
I do hope they fix this soon. I now use the Polar Wearlink Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor but I'd like to use the new Polar H7 HRM that has bluetooth and 5 kHz technology so you can also use it with your cycling computer and at the gym. I also hope it is more gentle with the battery.

The H7 works fine with my wife her iPhone 4S. It works great while cycling. You can monitor your ride with your cycling computer while the phone in your pocket records your ride with Endomondo and gives you advice if you have setup a specific training program.

Gentlemen,

I've rooted my GS3 - works flawlessly. Id like to start experimenting with various ROMS. My questions is

once I've done an android backup with CWM, and the new ROM is loaded, how do I reinstall all of my apps,

and settings (mail,etc)?? I have Titanium backup installed and have backed up each of the important apps one

by one.......

Easier way? That could take hours to recreate.

THanks

(14 years on a blackberry..... made the Android jump!)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
Generally restoring phone settings between different ROMs isn't a great idea and can lead to various problems.

You can have you apps reinstalled automatically when you login to Google on first boot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dssking:
It reinstals apps on installing google mail??????? HOW?

Now I'm really peaked about loading a new rom..........
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
Usually when you boot Android for the first time, you're asked to put in your Google credentials - these are used for Gmail, but also to log you in to the Play Store. Then there is usually an option to restore the phone, and it will proceed to download all of your apps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
If you buy the pro key for titanium backup it automates the backup and restore process. And it is fine to restore apps and data (not system data) from one ROM to another. I even restored apps and data from my Atrix to my S3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zachsx:
Obviously it hasn't been sent out throught at&t yet and I'm having a crap time with my CPU. Can I download the update like the old school days. Like do the update.zip deal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Sadly no....

Either Kies the update to the device,( for unrooted stock devices) or use the stock rooted version from the "note everything" thread...(pending a rooted device of course.) Or you can Odin push the .tar image from another PC.

"Bigfau" has 3 stock rom variants, all rooted, and all stock. these are zip files, so I'm guessing you are already rooted with CWM ?

If so...you can just download/flash these variants....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zachsx:
I am not rooted at the moment :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
We need to fix that problem...LOL

Kies update method is your only method until ATT sends the file OTA, or you root...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zachsx:
I know! LOL my computer is in the shop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Just wait a bit more...IMHO

It's far better to have a solid working PC to flash with, than use a friends etc.

You will know what you're dealing with at least.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VanillaCracker:
*EDIT* - If you cannot get your phone into download mode at all, I suggest buying a USB Jig (I bought one while back, never had to use it) it's only a couple dollars and should force your phone into download mode.

From there:

If you haven't already solved your problem, download odin (if you don't already have), and try restoring the stock rom, or a rooted stock rom. This will most likely un-brick your phone, as it would seem is what you did. Once ODIN is downloaded, you're going to want to plug your phone in to your computer via USB, launch odin, and then install the Rom by placing it in the PDA section, and then pressing Go, initiate, or whateve the button is. This should fix your phone so that you can go back into recovery mode once you're done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Droid111:
Hello,

I was running the CM10 Alpha 2 for my GSII. Alpha 3 came out so I decided to update. I installed the newest CWM and the alpha 3 package, gapps and darkside wipe.

When installing I had no problems that I noticed. Everything said it worked fine. However, once rebooting the phone after darkside wipe finished, I couldn't boot up my phone. I can get past the Samsung screen, but I don't even make it to the CM animation boot screen.

I decided to pull the battery after waiting a while and go back into recovery. I did this and decided to restore my backup. My phone is stuck on "Restoring .android_secure" right now and will not work.

I can use Odin to flash back to ICS and how to came but I'm wondering why it didn't work? I know I did the procedure right, as I did it when flashing CM10 alpha 1, 1a and 2. I read about needing the latest CWM for it so I got that, too. A bit of a weird issue that I'd post in the CM10 thread if I had over ten posts.

Thanks in advance to those who can help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phizban:
I followed basically the same pattern and didn't have an issue, aside from the fact that I didn't Darkside wipe (if you are using the latest clockwork touch I don't think it's necessary anymore). I also flashed the instigator kernel (6.2.1) but that was after I rebooted without issue.

Sidenote, the instigator 6.2.1 seems to possibly have some overheating trouble, so I am running the Darkside Hercules kernel for the moment, and it seems to be working well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Droid111:
Yeah, reading the thread it seems like a pretty rare problem. Somebody actually posted something similar yesterday that I missed and nobody really knew. I wasn't sure if I should Darkside wipe or not so I chose to anyways. I haven't tried flashing a new kernal but as I said I can't even get to the boot animation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mjwhirly:
I would stay away from the darkside wipe, it has been reported through many threads that it can sometimes lead to problems when installing a rom. Your best bet is to just wipe data, format system, wipe dalvik cache, either format /cache or use Darksidewipe.cache not the darkside wipe that's wipes everything. Then install rom and gapps. Reboot phone and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, (i usually let it sit 10). From there you can decide if you want to flash one of the two available kernels, results may very with the two.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Droid111:
Thanks for the help. I'm going to try it within the next few days. Right now I have SKY-ICS going fine but I'll definitely try that.

What do the different kernels do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] EddieB606:
I used TWRP and flashed over CM9 with no problems. Did it as an upgrade. Wipe system> install CM10> install gapps> Wipe cache

Several people have reported that TWRP worked for them.

as of right now all i have is fastboot
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joeykrim:
If the RUU doesn't work, the other two alternatives are to attempt to flash the stock system.img and stock boot.img through fastboot .. although I'm not sure this will work with S-ON, depends on whether or not the device is locked/unlocked via HTC's official method.

Also, the second alternative, could use the PG*zip file which is stored inside the RUU. the zip file can be extracted from the RUU and placed on the root of the sdcard. Then the bootloader will grab this file and flash, essentially performing the same thing as the RUU would.
