You could also try to do just a factory reset, delete all SD files (This also happens if you unlock your phone) and then to reinstall all your app and restore your photos etc. Maybe that's works for you too..

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
Now there is this :

have i bricked my SGT ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glussier:
No, it's not bricked, it's in download mode, you can still flash a rom via heimdall or Odin.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] royban123:
yesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!! your phone is totally -SOFT BRICKED- term used when something in the software is destroyed there are many videos on how to fix soft bricked sgt on youtube... just secure odin, stock firmware and youre sgt drivers. this is my first time to actually post a help cause i have encountered this problem too:)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
There is no such thing as "soft brick", Your device is either "bricked" or it isnt. When your device is bricked only option is to replace mobo or repair via some method like JTAG connection.

If you can enter recovery or download mode you can simply reflash a rom, Which means you dont have a "bricked" device at all, It just means that your rom wasnt booting because you didnt read instructions correctly or flashed an incorrect kernel or rom etc.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] royban123:
i dont know... very well explained by the way, but just give time to google search the term soft bricked then results will come out (just to verify the term)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:

But the problem with the internal sd card still there :/

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glussier:
If you tab has an internal sdcard problem, you might want to read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1463756
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Yes ofcourse the term will come in results because there are a zillion topics with n00bs saying things like hard brick and soft brick. Technically there is only "bricked". It may be easier to create a different type of brick but in reality its simply not bricked at all, You just need to re-flash correctly.

n00bs like to call their device soft-bricked when they have screwed up flash in some way so system wont boot to OS, that isnt bricked that just means your rom isn't booting. "bricked" is when your device wont boot period or you cant get into recovery/download at all or they are faulty in a way you cant use them to flash the nand. Perfect example is when you flash incorrect pit file or corrupt your bootloader etc.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
Okey but how i can flash the rom correct?

i mean to full wipe the sgt?

and one more question....

how i can change my signature? :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glussier:
I know his device is not bricked. The important thing for the op is to find how to get his device working again. If he would like to find info. on the web, for a device that lost communication at the middle of a flash, he will have to do a google search on bricked or soft bricked devices. Who cares about terminology if you are not going to find what you are looking for.

Here's a video, on flashing a Galaxy tab wich has a disconnected status: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3htbNck38w

Here's a full page of youtube videos on soft bricked galaxy tab: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3htbNck38w

So, your agument doesn't help the op, it just help in confusing him a little more.

Find the full original rom for your device, including the pit file, and flash using either Odin or heimdall. The pit file is very important, as you tried installing cwm/cm9, and your device will have to be repartitioned.

As for your signature, click on user cp at the top left of the page.

BTW, there is over 30 models of the original Samsung tablet, so, how the hell do you think people tell you exactly what to download and what to flash to get your tab working again?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
Okey but where i can find roms?

On samfirmware are only tar files no pit files :/

Well firstly I didnt say anything about the users device been bricked or not. I was referring to another user telling him he had soft-bricked his device when that is impossible as the term means nothing.

@ OP

Use the Overcome safe stocking files and guide to re-stock your system and then flash CM9/CM10 via recovery as normal after wiping data etc.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
ok i´ll test it :)

EDIT#1:

so after the Overcome Kernel it won´t boot up ..

i´ll turn of now and flash the Overcome rom ...

EDIT#2

My tab don´t boot up with Overcome ...

Now i´ll restock 2.3.6 and try to install CM10 ...

I´ll update you :)

EDIT#3

E. Can´t mount ...

Can´t open ...

what now ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:

but in the Setup Wizard there comes 5 or 6 errors and i can´t click on next :/
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
You can't get a nand chip. If it has gone bad, it is gone.

You can try to remove it and use external SD card only.

There is a thread about that.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
So i can install Overcome roms but i can´t start apps because they all stop to work ?!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Can you go back one step?

Just flash the overcome gb stock safe v5 using Odin with repartition.

Is that rom working fully 100%?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
no it donßt work 100% i can´t turn on wifi all apps are crashing and alot of errors like XY has stopped working coming

now i flashing back to 2.3.6 and i´ll sell the sh*** tablet !!

Nothing works NOTHING hrrr its anoying ...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
I don't claim to know the innards if the tab.

But there are two internal nand. One for the /system and one for the /data

Supposedly the system one is OK, the rom will flash OK, but with bad /data, the apps won't have a place to write the data and apps crashed?

Maybe there are those who know better of this topic?

One thing we know is cm10 uses new mtd partition that swap the /system and /data.

Maybe you can try.

Just from gb stock safe, flash overcome kernel via Odin.

Then boot to cwm recovery and flash cm10 and gapps.

If that is still bad, you will have to look at how to install to external SD.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SL!D3:
So i have rethinked a bit and i won't sell the tab because i won't get a lot money...

So can anyone please give me more tips how i can repair the internal memory?

The problem is that the internal memory can't be wiped but the internal SD os working;) because i don't get any errors in the recovery mode and my device is booting ...

So i can't install roms because there comes ab error like : encryption unsucessfull

[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
No. They use a custom kernel. You must be unlocked.
[Motorola Photon 4G] prab2112:
does this mean that my bootloader must be unlocked to install JB or ICS ?

or are there any ICS/JB based rom which i can install on my PHOTON 4G..
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbaumert:
"You (your bootloader) must be unlocked" v :banghead:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bock Abrams:
Well you need to be unlocked to install the kernel, any ICS or JB needs a kernel different than the stock one to run at all.

So yeah, you will need to be unlocked.

Here in Phoenix it was an easy choice, we don't have any WiMax towers out here anyways.

cHi all.

I got my new htc one x week ago. The problem is everytime i connect out home wifi, it works for some tíme and then, after 40minutes approx, wifi goes down and cannot be reconnected not even by computer or other phones. I ides to connect via dads samsung ave and it worked without problems. Is there a way my htc one x could be doping something with router? We also had people here from the providers company and they.changed everything, changed the type of.router, antena etc, yet still after.connecting wifi it only works some tíme. Then blackout. And have to reset whole wifi router...

Thank you for your answers.

Best regards,

Got the same problem with my HOX. I'm using a d-link router DIR-615. For me the only solution was to switch from a/b/g/n to only g (the 2.4Ghz band). When connected to Wifi via N band, I must reset the router frequently. So try to switch your router to G band only (2.4). Many forum talk about this issue but it seems this is more related to Android OS itself. Some user tried other combination like DHCP or Static IP, different security level (wep, wpa, wpa2). Hope this helped! If you find a better solution please tell me, i wish i could use my router in the 5Ghz band.

This is a good idea:good:. find the channel with less trafic with wifi analyser https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd and set your router to that channel.

I had the same problem on a netcomm router. I had to replace my router anyway, so I ended up getting a netgear router and the problem has completely stopped.

It works on both 2.4G & 5G bands without hassle since changing. It also works on my work router which is a linksys.

I think there must be some issues between the HOX and certain brands of routers.
[HTC One X] alray:
The HOX isnt the only android device to experience this exact same issue (xperia x10,HTC Evo, HOX,Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830, Xoom, Toshiba scribe, droid x) Maybe its related to some android builds or device's radios? Some pple are reporting this on many brands of router(Linksys,d-link, Sagemcom, cisco) but not all model of those brands and some of them reported that different settings resolved this issue (a/b/g/n to only g or b+g, AES to TKIP, wpa/wep or no security...). Its very strange and I hope someday they will find the cause of this HUGE problem. But for now Google and manufaturers are speaking like if this issue doesn't exist.

But i'm sure there is a way to solve this before replacing the router...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apullin:
Hi there folks,

I'm having a bit of a problem with my Vibrant phone. Or, rather, I've always had this problem with this phone:

There is an extreme lag to the interface, sometimes with it barely responding at all for 10 or so seconds.

This problem was present even on the stock ROM/kernel/image , straight from Samsung/T-Mobile, enough so that I've also tried CM9 and CM10 ROMS.

This lag seems to be present in almost every system of the phone, to a varying degree; for example, when I pretty the button to turn the screen on, it'll take 1-2 seconds for the LCD to turn on (OLED?), but the the backlight will remain off for another 1-3 seconds. And when I open the Call Logs screen, it takes 10-20 seconds for all the phone numbers to be converted into names from the Contacts list. There's plenty more instance where the UI and UX are really seriously affected by the lag, but those are two examples that jump out.

Since I don't know anyone else with this phone, I don't have a point of comparison, I might get some YouTube video of some of these latencies to try and better demonstrate what I'm describing here.

Seeing as this has happened with two very different ROMS and configurations loaded onto the phone, I'm not worried that I may have gotten a bum piece of hardware. Is there any sort of truly objective test that can be done? Something to verify the flash mem access speed, or verify that there are no faults in the RAM, or any such things?

Has anyone else experience this kind of a response from the UI? Is this just a fundamental limit of what this phone can do?

How to make a true system image?

Thanks for the input guys; it makes sense that perhaps I should do a true, true nuclear solution reformat, reconstruction, etc.

Is there a way to make a true "image" of the phone as it is now? It's not really clear what Titanium Backup is doing, so I'm curious if there is a way to make a full-on 16GB (or more) duplicate of the phone's entire flash memory, so I could switch back to it, if needed? Something akin to doing a 'dd if=/dev/sda of=backup.dat' in linux.

Hello Guys,

I used to be a milestone 2 user, coming from a milestone one here in the EU.

My milestone 2 gave out and I when it did I was forced to use another brand/phone.

However, I'm currently in the US and I was wondering whether there are any droid 4's I could buy over here that would work in Europe. Obviously this means the D4 would need to be free of sim lock and it would need to be able to take a sim card from europe.

Any advise? Workarounds? other places where one could get hold of a D4 able to work in the EU?

It goes without saying that I don't want to pick up a US prepped phone tied to a crazy expensive US operated dataplan in the EU.

TiA,

Cheers!

Most D4s come factory unlocked, you just have to make sure you carrier isn't on the bad list. Chances are if Verizon partners with your carrier at home, you may be out of luck. There is a UK thread going on here, take a look through the older threads. Keep in mind, LTE functionality isn't available on this phone outside of the USA.
