I had the same problem when I received my replacement phone. But when I plugged in the phone into another computer to charge it that computer recognized it. So when I went home my laptop now recognized my phone then I went through the process of rooting my phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] EVoorhees:
I think you don't have the HTC DINC2 drivers. There are special ones just for rooting. YouTube is your best friend for these things.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pimix2009:
I tried everything and didn't work...possibly but I found out it was the phone. I even had drives installed from HTC and I took to Verizon they some how got it to work but they went through cable after cable. It turns to be the charging port was badon the phone, the cable had to be inserted a certain position and had to wait about 10 sec for it to get recognized but somehow..... the phone had no charging problem. It charged well with any micro usb cable

Hi all.

Ok, my tab (7510, wifi only, US) is rooted and working great.

There's a file that needs to be edited to enable the 5Ghz wifi band. I did that.

So, what are some recommended apps for a rooted tab that make this already terrific device even better?

I'm running stock ICS, with the Nova launcher. The tab runs like a rocket, and everything just works with no

problems. I'd prefer to stay with stock ICS for now rather than a custom ROM.

Thanks!

My favorite app for any rooted android device is LBE Privacy Guard. It's a "by app" firewall and permission manager.

You'll have to grab it from their website for the GT but is runs fine on it. For my RAZR I grabbed it from the market.

I also like OS Monitor and Titanium Backup.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jacksmyname:
Thanks Michael.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jayceebee23:
Definitely TitaniumBackup. I know a lot loves the Root Explorer but ES File Manager is great too once you turn on the Root Explorer option. For me it's a lot friendlier. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jacksmyname:

I have ES File Explorer; it's what I used to edit the file for 5Ghz wifi. Agree, very user friendly.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] spitzaf:
If you start flashing a lot consider App2Zip as well. Backs up your apps and data to a recovery flashable ZIP file. Can be a bit faster than TB restore and is done pre-startup of the ROM. TB is still great to have though.

For recoveries I recommend TWRP. Touch interface, multi-zip flash in one install, file manager built in...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnd0m:
Hi,

If you still facing the issue, try to see what is eating up your battery. Best way to analyse the situation is by installing an app called 'Better battery stats'. Its by a XDA member and if i'm not mistaken he offers it on XDA as free download. Try to see what is causing partial wakelocks and kernel wakelocks (your phone should be on deep sleep mode for the majority of time). Try to see what MHz is your processor running at (it shouldnt be in the 1400 range for too long unless you are playing some heavy duty games)

Also try to search for threads on 'wakelocks' on XDA to get more details on this subject.

I have experienced close to 10% drop in 1.5 hr in stock ROMs and around 15% in five hours on CleanNote ROM in idle states with lots of background apps disabled.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuzzWildfire:
Hi, I'm Spanish, so my English is very poor. I have an HTC Wildfire, and when I installed one rom of Cyanogen, the stable version 7.1, Android 2.3.7 and tried to overclock with the options "Performance", 518mhz of minimum and 768mhz of maximum, the system freezes after a few minutes. I tried several times and with the stable version 7.2, and it is always so. I wonder if you can help me.

Thanks.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Don't clock it to max.

Your phone can't handle it.

Try 528-710 for example.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuzzWildfire:
My phone don't suport 728mhz? Only to 710mhz?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
The point I was trying to make is to try a lower frequency. Doesn't necessarily have to be 710MHz
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miniAndroidian:
I can't overclock my WF to the maximum too so i clocked it to 729mHz and it runs fast aswell. I don't think you notice the 30mHz difference.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eventcom:
The hardware may vary (slightly or even significantly) in both directions (some people may overclock to more than 768MHz while others even can't up to 710). Varies also with different kernels - but freezes generally are a sign that you've gone over max - independant from your kernel).

From my experience it doesn't really make a big difference if I set 710 or 768 (besides the battery drains faster and my Willy is getting freakin' hot at times) - overclocking is a bit overestimated anyway ;)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scratch0805:
After running my wildfire for months at 768 i decided there wasn't much point in going above 633 for the things i did on it. Also the speed margin was minimal.

I'm now on a dual core 1.2ghz s2 running at 1ghz on a single core and its almost doubled my battery life, the 2nd core is hardly used unless its needed so i turned it off, i see no difference in speed but high gains in battery life.....

Sometimes a high Oc isn't what's needed to make a phone faster........

I tried to 748mhz and the Wildfire are ok. Thanks.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewniany92:
everyone has "different" wildfire. For example you get freezes at 768 Mhz but I don't get it and my willy is getting well with it. Anyway, the biggest difference you can see when you overclock willy to 729 Mhz. Higher is not important because you cannot see any difference in performance. You will only drain your battery life (:
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BuzzWildfire:
Thanks. I choose the configuration in 518mhz-729mhz in performance. I'm testing this configuration since eleven hours.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewniany92:
IMO bes configuration is from 264 or 176 to 729 and smartass v2 governor. Low values because when ur phone is in sleep mode it drain ur battery less than on 518 mhz (; give a try (;
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
That's the best configuration for YOU.

Not everyone has the same taste as you :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drewniany92:
Yes (; for me it is the best so i wrote IMO m8. But i think that this conf. would be much better for battery than yours but urs would be faster of course (;

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tom.Ca:
I have a similar problem but cannot NOT fix it

Out of the many "stuck on samsung screen", Bakon420's post is mostly resembled of my problem. My Note is stuck at the "Samsung" screen. My hope is that someone can help me find the right thread and right way to fix it. I have read and continue reading. But the fear of keep bricking my Note to point of no return has prompted me to plead for help.

I have a Telus Galaxy Note SGH-i717, out of the box it came with Android 2.3.6. I updated it to Android 4.0.4 using the "update" feature in the "settings" of the phone.

I began rooting it using this method: http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...y-note-sgh-i717-icsgingerbreadeasiest-method/. After the method, I verifed that I had "superuser" app. When I used "root checker" app, it declared my Note was not rooted.

So again, I rooted it using another method at http://androidcritics.com/how-to-ro...7-on-android-2-3-6-gingerbread-and-4-0-4-ics/ . This method gave me the "stuck at "Samsung" screen.

On to xda-developers forum, I followed the threads and tried doing this: [STOCK ODIN] [AT&T, TELUS, Bell, Rogers] In case of brick...(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1506330). After using odin and Telus stock, Note was stuck at the "Telus" screen.

So I went on to this thread:

[ROOT] [AT&T, TELUS, Bell, Rogers] Pre-Rooted Kernel (flash via Odin) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1504218 and tried odin with the provided "pda.tar". Now it's back to "samsung" screen.

I have also tried this method: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28725010&postcount=10. Kies won't recognize it and won't do Tools>firmware upgrade and initialize.

All that happened within the 5 hours time frame last night. I feel exhausted. If you have the same problem and have resolved it, please point me a way. Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
My Gosh man !!

Train wreck !!!

Sorry, I am willing to help you...as are the rest of the note family here...but you need to stop blindly flashing to the device...

It's so junked up with binary code, that it can't even crap...(rant off)

Okay Brother....

Do you have a recovery ??? As in CWM ??

If so...boot to the recovery, and wipe data, dalvik,....hell, basically everything 3 times.....(If not...then Odin push the recovery image to the device, so we can clean the garbage out of the system partition, and the boot partition)

You need a recovery to clean this phone up, then wipe all caches, data, battery stats...

Then, pull the battery....do not attempt to reboot, or you'll be stuck again...

Put the battery back in, then boot to download mode, and push the Odin .tar back to the device (the rom from the brick thread)

then reboot...

It may still give force closes etc.....thats because it still has junk in the system partition. but now we can boot into recovery and wipe again..

then on the second boot, you should be pretty clean..

those are the steps I'd use my friend...and no, i'm not pissed at you...it's just been a long azz day, and i know how you feel...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tom.Ca:
Okay. I will do it as I type this. First, boot in to recovery as in pressing vol. up and down and power, then let go power when it vibrates, but keep on pressing vol. up/down. It shows a 4g/lte Telus screen for about 2 secs. Now on to Android system recovery <3e>.

Now, using volume up/down to move highlight. Options are: reboot system now, apply update from external storage, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, and lastly apply update from cache. I don't see "dalvik" as an option. So, I'll do wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition in that order 3 times. Okay, 3 times wipes. Now pull the battery...

Battery back in, boot to download mode. Screen says "ODIN MODE". product name SGH-i717D, custom binary download: YES (6 counts). Current binary: custom. Now load odin3 v1.85 on my computer, load up the "TELUS stock kernel-only odin pda tar" from the brick thread. Now plug in my usb cable to the phone and the computer. Only check boxes are "auto reboot", and "PDA". ID:COM box shows "0:COM6" in yellow color. Now , click start. ODIN Message:

Now the phone is rebooting and stuck at the "samsung" screen. The computer says "found new hardware Samsung Mobile MTP Device". Kies is loading automatically but not recognize any thing connected. Now booting to recovery to wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache again.

Now pull the battery out... back to recovery mode and reboot system now. It's still stuck in the samsung screen. !!! I feel like an idiot and maybe I am one and I don't know what else to do!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
There is every indication that the kernel image you are using is not correct somehow...

And after reviewing the thread link you posted ....the affected user was able to repair the device by loading a rooted stock ICS build from flappjaxxx.

And since his roms contain the kernel image ....you can eliminate the need for a kernel by simply flashing his ICS rom.

But in order to do this ...you need the CLOCKWORKMOD recovery pushed to your device ....

And you currently have the stock 3e recovery. (Will not work)

So you need to push the CWM recovery to your device ....then flash the ICS build using your new recovery ....not Odin.

The only need for Odin at this point is to push the new recovery ...

Lets get that far ....and worry about the modem later...

Note : your device may contain a recovery script that forces the device to revert from a custom recovery, back to the 3e recovery.

Not all devices do.....

But if you do ....it's fixable ....and the fix can be found by a general search....but lets try the recovery push, and rom flash first using these steps ...

On PC .....

Download the Odin CWM recovery from the super thread......the .tar image for Odin

Then download the ICS rooted rom from Flappjaxxx ....the .zip file

Then move the downloaded rom to the download folder of your phones SD card.

Next :

Push the CWM recovery to your device using Odin.

If the device hangs at the samsung screen (it will ) don't pull battery...simply hold volume up and down, then power..

The device will start to vibrate every 2-4 seconds.....and after 3 vibration cycles ..release the power button but continue to hold the volume buttons.

The device will boot your new CWM recovery...

Then navigate to the "wipe data,factory reset " option and wipe the data.....then do the same for the cache and dalvik cache.

Then choose "install zip from SD card "...and flash the rom you placed to the device from the PC ..

Once the flash completely finishes .....reboot

If all went well ....you'll have ICS running ....

Let me know ..g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tom.Ca:
Thank you for your post. I will confirm the correct downloads and methods before actually trying them out. I am quite nervous because of previous failures. If this confirmation step seems overkill and rediculous to you, it is only because I am an idiot.

means go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1584576, download Odin from here: http://thinkleet.de/cwm/cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5.

means using Odin3 1.85 adready on my PC to load cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5 and flash it on my Note i717D. Is it correct?

means , download this: i717-ICS-UCLE2: Credit and Thank you flappjaxxx. It is on the top and flle name implies it is the lastest version. Also this rom is the one to be moved to my SD card "download" folder. Is it correct?

Thank you. I have downloaded the files and await your confirmation.

Update: Sept. 26

I searched and found a thread that referred to CWM Recovery here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1775263. The file in the mentioned thread is the same as the file you have indicated. So I downloaded it and pushed it to the phone, using Odin. Now I have booted in "CWM-based Touch Recovery v5.5.0.5". Run "wipe data/factory reset 3 times, wipe cache partition 3 times, and get in advanced to wipe Dalvik cache 3 times. Reboot recovery to go back to CWM Recovery main screen. Select "install zip from sdcard". Select "i717-ICS-UCLE2" from the sdcard. It took a few minutes and displayed "Flashing UCLE2 modem", then "Reboot Now", and lastly "Install from sdcard complete.", then return to the "Apply update from .zip file on SD card" screen of the CWM Recovery. Now reboot. There is no selection to reboot from this screen, so I just remove the battery, put it back in and restart the phone using the power button the normal way. The phone restarted with a screen "Samsung Galaxy Note, SGH-i717D", then onto the infamous white-on-blue "SAMSUNG" on the black background screen and stayed there.

Look like there is another problem somewhere else, caused by my second root attempt. For now, I will just sit tight to prevent further damage to the phone. Any thoughts that may explain and/or fix the problem is much appreciated.

Take a look at the last post in that thread. That is a gingerbread kernel. I'm going to assume you're on ics. You'll have to install an ics kernel in recovery.
