yoft1,

I appreciate your help. I did what you said and downloaded both the darkside clean wipe and the darkside cache wipe. Flashed my rom, and the light finally started to shut off.

Except when I did a normal factory reset just from the settings menu, when it reset I still have the same problem, it goes back to keeping the lights off. Does that make any sense to you? Like could something in the darkside clean or cache wipe fix it but then a factory reset mess it up again?

Also if I wanted to make a backup of my system, what program would you recommend to do it? Thanks again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RTFOP:
Just run the cache wipe again. It will fix that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] robois88:
Great, thanks for the help.

One other question, if I want to put my phone back to the EXACT way it was when I bought it, do I just need to flash a stock rom, or do I need to flash a kernel as well?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
If you're looking to make a backup of your entire device image, your cwm recovery will do that for you under backup. No other way to do it, you have to do it via a recovery mode.

I don't know why factory reset would be causing that problem since I never use that but it does seem odd.

To return exactly how you bought it, you need to first flash the stock ics kernel through cwm. Then flash an Odin tar file through Odin (desktop) which will restore stock rom as well as stock recovery. Unfortunately, I've looked around but could not find an Odin tar file for Koodo stock. Maybe you'll have better luck but in any case that is the process.

You seem competent and willing to learn, which doesn't happen as often as you would think. Let me know if I can help further. Good luck.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] robois88:
yoft1,

Many thanks again for your help. I am extremely green to this type of stuff so I feel like I've been thrown into the deep end here.

I've been looking around for the tar file and can't seem to find one either. But with the amount of people on here, there is probably someone who could upload it right? Would there be a thread or better forum for me to make a request? Or is that poor etiquette on this site?

I've just seen so many different roms, kernels, updates, etc...and I'm thinking somebody might be able to get it on here.

Ok you also said the first thing to do is to flash the kernel. Am I just lookng for any stock ics kernel? I just know I've looked through so many website and threads with different kernels, I just want to make sure I flash the correct one. Like is there a specific one per carrier, or model, or brand?

Again thanks for the help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
I would probably start a thread in the general section to see if someone can compile/upload an Odin flashable tar from Koodo stock. If that doesn't work or if no one responds after a bit, I would PM Mr X (a user on these forums). He is a dev that has uploaded stock roms for Telus and tmobile and he's also a really nice guy. He would probably know where to get one.

As for the kernel, I'm not sure if it matters but I would say with 80% certainty that there is no difference between the stock tmobile kernel and the stock Koodo kernel. On top of that, I would say with 99% certainty that it doesn't matter either way because I highly doubt they would look that closely (if there's anything to find at all) if you send it in for warranty purposes (but no promises of course) . If you get your hands on that tar file for Odin, I'm almost positive that the stock tmobile/Telus ics kernel will do it for ya.

Here is one of MrX's threads so you can PM him if the general forum doesn't work out:

these days i use at the same time my wonder and my old trusty Nokia 5800 and I noticed a huge difference in reception, signal handling and sound quality during a call, all in favor of nokia ...

same position, same operator TIM, same sim 64k (also reversed does not change)

quality audio call 5800: warm and it feels like the wired home phone

quality audio call wonder: audio a little low

Reception 5800: superlative

Receive wonder: not excellent

switches 2G-3G-GSM: where I work there are areas where the 3G signal is weak, that I sometimes wonder if the telephone or going on that I can not make the call, or if they are sometimes called line is dropped, I see the signal bar delm zero and after 2 seconds to return to the max but in GSM, something that never happens with nokia, switcha but communication never falls ...

is it possible to change baseband on wondor?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] toroloco73:
no one has this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] bengonk:
yes, you can do that..

what ROM you use now??

if you on GB ROM, just follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1658809

but if you on ICS/CM9 ROM, i doubt you can use the method above since there still a bug in download mode on ICS/CM9 ROM.

i use stock rom

which baseband is better?

now i use xxmlb
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] bengonk:
Baseband was dependant on your country region actually.

You can check it on www.samfirmware.com for the best baseband of your country region.

And be sure to use the latest updates okay..

You still on stock?? Great, then you good to go with the method i think..:beer::beer:

i change baseband but no better...
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] tanelsaimre:
I have the same problem - very bad reception even in the middle of the city. I have tried about 5 different stock roms, no difference. I am thinking maybe its some other problem than firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] azhiekurosaki:
Maybe the problem with the hardware. I also have this problem. I compared to my Nokia and the result was Nokia is the best for receiving signal GSM. For me, even I have 3 bars signal, I cannot connect to EDGE connection while my Nokia can. But when I change to 3G, my wonder can connect to Internet. I came to think that the receiver is not good enough. I have installed many cusrom and stockrom but nothing changed.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] tanelsaimre:
I figured out my problem - I had messed with the external antenna connector (the thing in the lower right corner under the battery cover). Apparently this causes the internal antenna to disconnect. Same thing in the case of Galaxy S is discussed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1273292

If you have touched that thing then you might have the same thing causing your problem.

---------- Post added at 01:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 AM ----------

A quick way to test this would be to stick a piece of thing wire into the connector and see what it does to your signal. In my case I can see the signal strength jump up immediately.

Of course, that might again mess up the connector even more...

I am kind of a newbie but wanting to flash this rom. Do I need to start with Alpha 1 and then flash each one after or can I just flash Alpha 5.3?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Proboarder2712:
Do exactly what the Dev told you in his post. Install a Safe kernal. DL your file put it on your device. make a backup. do a full wipe(usually calikulin's wipe all is perfect) now flash new rom. flash different kernal(unless it tells you not to) if you desire and then flash your modem if its not there. If you have no idea what you are doing. READ READ READ. Ive done a decent amount of flashing over the past 2 years and i still read tons of posts to include the first couple pages and the last couple pages.

That rom will also have bugs and isn't complete since he is still working on porting everything over from JB.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vash403:
No you don't. The only think you have to worry about is being on a safe recovery. Agats kernel has a safe recovery included. The kuban kernel also includes a safe recovery as well. (included to prevent confusion) The reason why you need a safe recovery is because in the past people have bricked their phones when wiping data. You could also use the el26/29 kernel packed with clockworkmod recovery v5 to be extra safe. Once you enter recovery mode with a safe recovery or cwm5 all you have to do is wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache and you should be fine to flash cm10. You don't have to flash older versions because the newer ones have everything the older ones have. They also have bug fixes. There is no reason to flash alpha 1, 2, ect unless you just want to see how it works.

Just flash the latest version.

I am having issues w/ my 3G. it shows up but I keep getting the message that I am not connected when I go to the internet and play store.. is that one of the bugs if not is what modem would be the best with this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] emottau:
You don't need to start with Alpha 1, just follow the directions on the original post (first post on the first page) after downloading the alpha 5.3 file, gapps, and any other files it recommends.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:
my 3g isn't working... i only get 1x. what do i need to do to fix this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vash403:
What version did you flash? If it was a nightly I wouldn't be too worried about it cause sometimes they work and sometimes they have bugs because they sometimes contain experimental code. Also try toggling airplane mode and see if that helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:
I flashed the Alpha 5.3. I tried the airplane toggle, I tried reflashing, I wiped everything and nothing worked. I still only get 1X. I flashed back to my previous rom for now until I figure it out.. which sucks because I love this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JengoFett:
What Modem are you using?

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

Also when you say you wiped everything, that means that you wiped data/factory reset, wipe cache x2, wipe dalvik x2, then flash rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandyanderson5581:
Yes.. I did that! I have tried it 3 times now and I still only get 1X My phone has been flashed to Boost Mobile. Would that make a difference? I have flashed other roms before and never had a problem getting 3G

[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
Subject says it all. "vibrate on touch" not functioning...AGAIN, and I did factory reset, firmware update blah blah blah. This makes 3 in a row for me with this issue. C6, C5, and now C7 s/n.

This time I bought it at Best Buy locally instead of online like the first two, so I can exchange it more easily.

So, what's the over/under on the total # of times I'll be exchanging this thing until I get one that works 100%?

Mechanical construction seems fine w/ minimal light bleed.

One final thing ASUS: W T F ?!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ready2Mosh:
No haptic feedback on what, typing? There are settings to increase the instensity and the stock setting you can't feel it, so you need to go to the keyboard in settings and change the intensity.
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
No touch feedback on ANYTHING.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
The only place I notice the haptic feedback is when I power the device on and off - that's it... I'm wondering if all 3 units were actually fine the whole time??
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
My first one it worked fine then inexplicably stopped working. Every time I tapped the screen I would get a response. When I would place widgets on the screen I would get a response. I can adjust the settings/volume in advanced keyboard settings, but when I type there is no feedback response. Mine does vibrate on start-up/shut-down, that's it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jyan_osu:
I feel a slight vibration when I press any of the three buttons on the lower left of the home screen
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRevilatioNx:
Did you go to "Settings - Sound - Vibrate On Touch" and turn it on?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
If it works on startup/shutdown then I don't think it's a hardware problem - probably just a combination of settings...
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
This is nuts...

There is an option that can be toggled on and off in the settings menu. It's called "vibrate on contact". You know what I am referring to, right? Whether or not that box is checked has no effect on the haptic feedback.

I am aware of the 'advanced keyboard settings' where the duration of the feedback can be set. I can slide that around and feel the response. When I use the keyboard: no response. Again, it's not just the keyboard, it's everything.

My very first tablet, when I clicked on menu items, icons, etc, the scren would vibrate..just like my cell phone. Every time I tapped the screen there was a solid response. Then it suddenly stopped working. 2nd tablet, very faint feedback when hitting the 3 icons in the lower right hand side, none anywhere else.

I have a feeling a LOT of people have this issue and don't realize it and/or don't care about it.

Bottom line is, my constant issue has nothing to do 'playing with settings' hard boot, cold boot, boot in the ass, whatever. It has to do with piss poor quality control on the part of the mfg.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRevilatioNx:
When I turn it on... All 3 lower left icons have haptic feedback. When I go into settings and turn off "vibrate on touch" , it doesn't work. I don't see a problem.
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
Haptic feedback response is supposed to be for more than just clicking on those 3 icons you are referring to. How about when you select various things from the settings menu? When you click on an app? Press and hold an app/widget in the menu to drag to the homescreen? In those cases, and others like typing, there should be vibratory feedback. If you're ok with it then great. I just feel that if I am spending $500+ on something I want ALL the functions to work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRevilatioNx:
Are you using the stock launcher?
[Asus Transformer TF700] pileot:
Ya, thats settings for the tablet dude. If you feel the feedback when you turn it on or off then it IS working. Asus has just nerfed the HF when your navigating around android likely to save battery life. Chances are with custom roms and custom kernels when they come you can boost the intensity of the vibration and enable it for everything, not just three or four buttons on the homescreen.

Honestly, in a device like this having HF is sort of silly, one tiny vibrator isnt going to provide that much feedback in such a large device and it just kills battery. The only time i really like having it is when i turn on the device and get that feedback to tell me that yes, the tablet is in fact turning on.
[Asus Transformer TF700] CandyAndy:
I had the same issue that haptic feedback was only working while powering the device up.

But to my big surprise it started to work on everything without me doing anything about it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Maybe its a bug that didn't exist in the firmware version on your original unit, but exists in the current firmware...

My point is that its not a *hardware* issue if it vibrates on power up/down...
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
Yes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] umbopo:
Wow! Didn't even know about this being another issue that I can add to my litany of complaints. The only vibration/feedback I get is when powering up. I suspect many have this problem and do not realize it. Another QC **** up for ASUS...........
[Asus Transformer TF700] jyan_osu:
Maybe, but I always turn off haptic on my phones and tablets.. never did like them :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Ok, so I just tested this. The only way to key the soft keyboard keys to vibrate on touch is by going into the "Asus Keyboard" settings and enabling it there. If I enabled it under the "Android keyboard" settings, it doesn't work (since we actually using the Asus soft keyboard). Also, make sure to increase the vibration length as it defaults to 1ms or something like that.

Have you enabled the vibration under *Asus Keyboard* settings?

The back, home and recent apps soft keys did vibrate by selecting Vibrate on touch under Settings->Sound.

So, it seems to work as expected here...
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRevilatioNx:
So if I'm using the stock Android or Swift Key Keyboard it won't work? Has to be the "Asus Keyboard?" Hmm.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Sorry- I probably worded that poorly - I only tested with the Asus soft keyboard - I was just trying to point out that enabling the vibration under the "Android Keyboard" settings will not work with the Asus soft keyboard, since that's what the soft keyboard defaults to (Asus Keyboard)... It may also work with the Android soft keyboard or others - as I said, I didn't test...
[Asus Transformer TF700] MrFurious:
Set the vibe to at least 60ms or higher or you wont feel it
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
What are the odds of getting 3 in a row with the exact same issue? Doing some more digging it seems this was also a problem on the TF201. Since the vibration motor is fine and works (tested with an ap) I am curious if this is something that could be fixed with a software upgrade in the future or if it's a mechanical thing.

[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
mine vibrates during power on/off, but does not vibrate when pressing the navigation buttons. vibrate on touch is enabled in the sound settings, and also enable on both the ASUS and Android keyboards. for me, the ASUS keyboard does not vibrate, but the Android one does.

i'm on Zeus' 4.0 though, so i wouldn't expect anything to work the same as the stock firmware.

to the OP: it's very obviously not a hardware issue (vibrates on boot/shutdown), so replacing the hardware serves no purpose. if the touch screen works (you can navigate) and the vibration motor works, the only thing left is the logic that tells the motor when to vibrate (this would be the firmware).

there never should have been a single RMA for this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] stray_pube:
I hope it's nothing more than a firmware issue, but then how do you explain why it works on some but not on others when I presume all tablets ship with the same firmware?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jyan_osu:
Software can do funky things.. I've programmed and troubleshooted a ton of projects in my 13+ years of development to know even if you have exact machines sometimes a small thing can make things work on on one way and different on another. Sometimes some program you have installed will interfere with the operation of it even though it shouldn't have any bearing.. Hell you can see that in consoles sometimes.. even though all should be the same, some folks experience slow downs and lock ups with a game or a patch while others are fine.

for v1, it simply gives out an error ./sbkDetect: 1: ./sbkDetect: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

So is there another way to learn whether I've got sbk v1 or sbk v2? my serial no is b70kas398xxx
