[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evo3d6:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evo3d6:
While were in qpst we need to make sure you got the right prl as well 9 times out of 10 the prl gets reset so you ll have to put it on the right prl
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evo3d6:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tuscani1821:
I know its a long shot but try dialing *#*#72786#*#* the phone should reset and go thru hands free activation again and restore data connections once it completed

Sent from my Genesis that does what Nintendon't
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bernz508:
as you know my et4g is on boost mobile

and what happens after hands free activation does its thing and tell me it cant activate? do i reboot? factory reset?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bernz508:
hey so i got my 3g working again, but how do i get cwm back so i can return back to jellybean?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evo3d6:
Reflash latest nightlie or whatever ROM you want then flash gaps then alternative carrier fix so you can keep 3g working don't know what ROM your on now so make sure its safe recovery before you flash over.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bernz508:
Ok so i got back to jb cm10 and didnt need to flash the alt carrier fix.. 3g is back to normal and i couldnt be more satisfied!! Well 4g would.be cool haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evo3d6:
Glad to hear you got it working congrats.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] OmegaBlaze:
Bump.

I'm flashed to page plus and still can't get 1x or 3g to work via flashable zip or *#*#4636#*#* on AKOP, King Kang, etc.

Also, when i use the *#*#4636#*#* and try and change "set network preferred" to Auto Cdma (PRL), it always goes back to UNKNOWN or WCMDA preferred.

Any new updates guys?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yesshh:
Anyone have any tips for a Note not charging? Tried a few cables. It is rooted and has a custom ROM, so I feel like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Anyone have any experience with this that maybe could point me in the direction of how to get my phone back to working normally?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
Flash back to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kabuk1:
Does it still connect to your computer? If it's not charging & not connecting, your charging port is probably broken. You could probably manage with an external battery charger & a couple of batteries you can charge & rotate, like these-
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] btswein:
Try blowing the port out with compressed air? Otherwise, yeah, you're looking at a replacement phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] GodsEyAthiest:
Same thing happened to a 'friend'. That part is very easy to change out. I don't know if you can buy it by itself though. What I 'heard' you can do is buy a new note from BB switch the charging ports and return it. Just make sure the battery is charged when u return it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 21productionz:
I had the same problem, it was the port. Warranty replaced it. No problems now.

I love my note!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yesshh:
But I do need to flash back to stock first, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 21productionz:
I flashed a stock rooted rom and they were cool with that. But it would depend on the person. Does the port work if you hold it in a certain position?

I love my note!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ladyhaylin:
Did you call Samsung or att for the warranty?

the second star to the right
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] yesshh:
Yeah. I tried around 3 or 4 chargers (car, oem, etc.), and none worked. I got home last night... Plugged it into my computer with a cable I had left at my computer, and it was charged in the morning.

Maybe I can give it some more time to make sure it wasn't something just disrupting the pin connections.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 21productionz:
At&t, no questions asked.

I love my note!

---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

Try a new charger! I have had micro usbs go bad. Look for dents, and check to see if those two little teeth are still sticking out.

I love my note!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] babalonius508:
The exact same thing happened to me. My Note stopped charging completely. As previously stated, you can get an external battery charger but your best bet might be a replacement phone.

From what I was told by a local phone repair shop, its not an easy fix. I'm not sure how correct that is.

However, AT&T replaced mine and it was quite an easy process.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ladyhaylin:
I am little worried about the replacement issue I called them and they are replacing it but I have two hairline cracks in my bezel I hope they don't charge me for physical damage :'( :'(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daman09:
My phone just stopped charging. Luckily, it has 50% charge left, and I have a backup iPhone. Has anyone else experienced this problem and had their phone successfully replaced?

If so, did you go through AT&T or Samsung? If I go into an AT&T store, will they be able to give me a replacement right there? If not, will they at least be able to start the repair process?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] btswein:
I claimed a warranty exchange. Went to AT&T and they gave me the warranty number. I don't think I've ever had a phone swapped in-store even though I have insurance.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] android4545:
Your charging port could be broken, you can always buy a wall charger for cheap on amazon to charge your battery..and might as well pick up another battery while your at it. Very convenient.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] btswein:
That's a good short term fix, but it's inconvenient and by the time you get that wall charger you'll have a new phone via warranty exchange.

I have a OEM charging cradle and battery I got on shopandroid for cheap. It was well worth it.

Just for those looking at this thread that have this problem, I had a good experience getting my phone by replaced for free, and rather quickly by AT&T. My full post can be found over here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] brooklynite:
I have the same problem with my 3 month old note (At&t i717). No pressure pull or anything was done to the phones USB port in fact it happened in the middle of the night while charging, it just stopped charging on its own. It's stock rom never rooted 2.3.6. Picked up the phone this morning was about 50% i didnt pay too much attention, got in the car and plugged in and noticed it is not charging. I thought its my trusty Chinese charger but it was not, came back home tried home charger the laptop plus USB cable and non worked. I am using original home charger and samsung USB cable. Cleaning the port did nothing. Rebooting few times and pulling the battery out did not help either.

And then the strangest thing happened. While it was plugged in (without me even touching it) after 20 minutes of being plugged in suddenly it made its DING sound and started charging. It has been charging everywhere since then, that was a few hours ago. I am worried it may do this again. It is definitely a software issue to me. I didn't touch the phone and started recharging all on its own!

I bought this note off Craigslist and its only about 3 months old and still under warranty but I don't have the receipt so Samsung says f/u. Very pissed at Samsungs poor customer service, really rude people in the Philippines at customer service, when I told them I bought the phone on Craigslist used, they acted like I have stolen their family jewels and did not want to talk to me. They came up with lame BS excuses like warranty doesn't transfer to second owner (it does, it's mandatory in the USA magnuson moss act ). HTC in contrast has always services my used phones without receipt using the IMEI they check and know it's still under warranty. They place a temporary charge on the card but they have never charged me anything and have promptly repaired my phones multiple times over the past couple of years.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
I've replaced my phone twice under a try warranty. It was super easy and the second time they sent me a brand new device. Also have your charger replaced as well, it a warranty issue also.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] deadseth:
so before i start i apologize if im just being lazy but if i have posted this somehow "wrong" or whatever i probally messed up but hey! :)

ok. to whom it may have answers,

first of all. i realize what i am asking is a "easySBF" but i would like to learn and write my own shell script that will do these steps.

(since this is just for me, my "required files" will be located for sure. and some of the script i got, its just some i dont)

1) adb shell ln -s /data/local.prop /data/preinstall_md5/magic.md5

2) i suppose this would require a "pause?" or whatever until it was ready to throw the next command at it?

3) sbf a custom preinstall image (sbf -r --preinstall dx.img 621.sbf)

4) have it wait for the boot after the flash is done? then reboot the phone one more time?

5) then if possible i want it to "adb shell" and check for a root prompt (# not $) ?

6) if it returns "#" (root) it would then go onto installing superuser files? if its "$" (not root) have it (if possible a countdown timer of like 10 seconds?) ask if i want to try again with another reboot or something. the timer would automatically send it into a reboot | return to #5

7) from here i have to send 6 more adb shell/push commands (dont know if i need to allow a "pause" or something between the commands to insure a working command?"

then if all goes well it would say something lame of course but ya.

i hope i am asking this in a readable way, if ive confused you (probally) then blame my upbringing or lack of concern for the english language :)

but if you can help then uhm. good looking out and either post it or pm me (makes it easier actually for me but anything is better than nuttin)

thank you in advance

Depending on your budget, perhaps Liquipel plus a decent case just to be extra sure, such as otterbox or similiar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] justinmcnairy:
I did a lot of review on Liquipel, but it kind of win/fail so I don't know if I'm consider this. Unless I find someone who bought a $99 dollar package and post a video review of it before I buying it...if it work, then I will also throw in Otterbox Defender for ultimate protection

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranks1989:
Hi guys. My Defy met with a tragedy and I need your help here! To start with I went for a vacation to Kerala and my phone got waterogged(I dropped in river!) First it was fine but then there was moisture in the screen and I removed the battery immediately. Since not removing the water would damage the circuitry and I was sans any screwdriver I gave it for service in a local shop in front of my eyes, but despite me being super careful I did not see him lost two parts which I realised only when I opened the phone again at home!

So summary is:

ANYONE HERE GOT SPARE PARTS OR PROBABLY A SPARE DEFY THAT DO NOT WORK? I need two things:

1.) One of the two yellow washers on the circuit.

2.) Black separator on the proximity sensor(between the circuit and front digitizer)

ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHERE I CAN GET THEM IN INDIA OR OWNS A DEFY THAT IS NO MORE IN USE?!

Since the water sensors are not red yet I intend to claim back warranty!

Thanks in advance :)

Worst case scenario is me buying a spare and then claim warranty in my original by taking parts from the spare. I am ready to pay at most 5-7k INR in the spare phone!

Pictures of the parts are attached.

This is the part I am looking for. I got the yellow washer.. This are some close ups

Okay so here is the list:

Me: one yellow washer and the proximity rubber grommet.

nogoodusername: Flash module

hsrars-d : Motherboard(But you are in Finland?! )

brajesh.sharma: LCD

Forget the parts part, u can get screwed if they find that your phone was opened earlier. But to motivate you, most of the service center in India of motorola runs in share basis (one service center for many brands) so they do things ignorantly.
