[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriout:
in the last days i had been experimenting battery drain issues so i decided to restore a previous backup to solve the problem, but when i restored i had no improovments. I thought it could be some dirty data or something, i don't know so wiped everything ( system, data, cache dalvyk ) with TWRP and reinstalled the codename android 4.1.1 the last one i could remember had no problem and was about 1 -2 per cent /hour... i put out the sim flashed the rom turned it on and made a full charge all over the night so in the morning still without sim and in flight mode and with no wifi and no account i watched the behaviour of the phone i waite some hour and with an app i restored with titanium ( batterydrain) i saw that it still drain about 6 % /hour ... in battery it gives me 39 per cent O S Android and 35 Media. my radio is the KI1 and i don't know what other info could be usefull ... this all started a pair of week ago ... before with proper settings i have never had battery drain problem ...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjay3333:
How old is the battery. It could just be losing its ability to hold a charge.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriout:
i bought it about 10 months ago ... now i'm trying slim 4.2, it's going a little better, about 4 per cent hour in flighy mode, i'll make some cycle and if it won't work i'll try with the previous radio hoping it could help ... if not i really don't know what else could i try to completely restore my nexus ...

in the meantime i have to use a very old htc tattoo that drain about 120 per cent hour while in use but is old and propably the last cyano is too much for him :P ...

Re: Replacement MicroUSB board

Hi,

Does anyone know where I could order a replacement Micro USB PCB for my S3?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] pah8000:
try at here

http://rounded.com/samsung-i9300-ga...tor-charging-connector-spare-part-microc.html
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burmo:
Thanks for that! I just found out now that the MicroUSB/MHL connector is directly on the mainboard... I thought it would have been a small seperate PCB... that's going to be annoying to repair!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
How did it broke ?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burmo:
I think it was my own fault... I think I let it fall from the bed with the charger cable in it... ouch.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kms108:
you can't buy it, everything is on ther from the cpu to display, wifi and radio, your only option is take it back to samsung.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
I had a sony x10i. Cost me more than a new phone to reclame it :thumbdown:

Isnt there a pièce of paper stuck inside?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burmo:
No, unfortunately not. It works better with certain cables... I can get a socket for 8 euro... I will check out repair costs and I may buy the equipment rather than pay a ton of money to get it repaired if it comes to that...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Sawyerville:
Do you successfully replace it? And where you find it?

Because i think mine have to be replaced. Is it hard to replace?

My i9300 felt few times one ground with charger and i accidently drop cofee on it. Then, only charge remain and 2 days after nothing. But everything else is working perfecly.

Thank for helping me!

Sorry for my inglish, its not my native language.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burmo:
Hi, the socket is on the motherboard and not a separate piece like on some other phones. So either replace the motherboard for about half the price of the phone or find a repair shop that will solder a replacement part on to the phone for you.
[Droid X General] moktarino:
I am certain that I'm getting the post syntax incorrect, let me know and I'll adjust it.

Anywho, I found out too late that when removing the black goo from the LCD's flex cable, you need to:

1. Heat it gently

2. Pull the goo from the INSIDE EDGE to the OUTSIDE EDGE.

3. Not break that paper-thin, fragile, incredibly tiny sliver of plastic that is the difference between an LCD that will turn on and an LCD that will not!

So, I managed to do none of these things. I went ahead and replaced the digitizer and tried various (failed) methods of mitigating the damage I had wrought, finding no help on the internet, only commiseration.

Tonight I had a flash of inspiration, and what the heck, it worked. I carefully used a needle to separate the tiny wire tips protruding from the clamp (my poorly-considered sideways goo-removal bent a few until they touched each other) while wishing I had a microscope, then I prepared a short length of PLASTIC DRINKING STRAW, folded it in half lengthwise ("long-ways"), and gingerly placed it beneath the overlying digitizer cable so that it compressed the LCD cable against the contacts beneath. I put the phone back together, and here I am today.

Now, I probably should have laid a bit of tape over this so that it won't shake free. I'll wait until it shakes free to do that, then report back.

I fully expect this post to elicit discussion of the dozen ways in which to better achieve this repair, and why my method is the worst of the bunch.
[Droid X General] mac01843:
I guess yours isn't the worst fix!

Apparently, it's not such a bad idea after all! I'm just wondering how to adapt it to work on an EVO 4G. There's no ribbon to put it underneath, but I get the idea... one would think those incredibly thin/weak plastic clamps (which should be relatively simple to replace) could be purchases for 10 to 100 times what they are worth (say, $3USD?) and problem solved. I put an HD2 screen in an EVO 4G, worked fine, until I didn't glue it in properly, and it popped out. My g/f brought it back to me, saying that I needed to fix it right! I went back in, and that damned wide flex ribbon cable, just the angle I was at, along with my son jumping about the table I was working at, I inadvertently broke that clamp, in three pieces! Damned frustrating too! I gotta get me a dedicated desk for my PC/CELL/TV repairs... with lights, magnifying glass, and a locked door...
[Droid X General] moktarino:
Well folks, I have outdone myself today. I was digging through my old tech to harvest the buzzer motor out of an old Boost Mobile Motorola i425 phone. After ripping it apart for the motor, I decided to pick through the rest of the parts to see if there was anything worth keeping (I bet you know where I'm going with this by now), and after harvesting the speakers, I noticed that the LCD cable looked suspiciously similar to the one on my poor Droid X.

3 hours later, I have fully repaired my Droid X. It was pretty tricky though, but I discovered that if you bend the metal bits at either end of the connector down, you can slide the clamp in and then bend them back upright.

Parts reuse FTW! Thanks Motorola! i425's are apparently $5 on eBay now, btw.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Truckerglenn:
When you say on, off, on, off. Do you mean the lights flash then it goes off or does it try to boot?

Have you tried a different battery or left the battery out for an hour or so, then tried again?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dhlan:
it does try to boot but then nothing happen..

i've never get into download mode :S how i do that?

Yes, i tried different battery and it does the same with both.

any solution? could be some files from the software are missing? repair software? u.u
[Samsung Infuse 4G] psal217050:
First you need to download Heimdall or Odin from the ISET page to you PC. I believe Odin uses the Kies drivers and Heimdall replaces the with a Samsung composite driver. I personally use the Heimdall back to stock that is rooted.

Once you have them and decide which one you will use, you will need to get into download mode. Take the battery out, connect USB to phone and preferably a rear USB port on your PC. Hold volume up and down, No Power button though, and then insert the battery. This should put you in download mode and you need to push volume up to get to it. Volume down cancels it and will reboot. You may want to just try that one time to see if it corrects the problem. If not, repeat steps to get to download and flash either Odin to Heimdall and then start flashing again.

Read the instructions on the OP of Odin or Heimdall and ask questions if you aren't sure of what to do.

I did what you said multiple times but evertime i do it it just goes straight to the charging screen then reboots and keeps doing the samething?

Hello guys,

I need a suggestion for a good android phone for about 350$ (20k RS.).

Its for a friend of mine, brand name doesnt matter, it basically should meet these :

1) Should have good development in xda, (atleast cm7, cm9/10 would be a added+)

2) Screen size should be as big as possible

3) Processor and RAM is not a big problem since he doesnt multi task much, also less internal memory is not an issue (Processor can be over clocked if there is cm9/10 I guess and battery life is not an issue too)

4) Camera sensor and quality should be good(the more MP the better :P)

I would appreciate if some suggestions would be given, Im basically looking at xperia series, Xperia Neo L and Sola looks good but want to know more suggestions before finalising.

Thanks for your time

Regards!

[General Topics] bellendone:
Please read and reply as this question is "genuine".

A couple of chaps at work, we rib them as "phonebores" are always going on about flashing ROMs etc and it sounds really exciting.

As i am an iphone user theyt just mock me, however i want to convert to Android and flash ROMs therefore could someone point me in the direction of the right phone and highlight in laymans terms why.

Thank you.
[General Topics] Kousthubha Kumar:
Google Nexus would be best bet to buy if you are looking for experiencing flashing ROMs, they have such amazing development there, (its the phone having the best development I guess).

Android is all about customization, you can change the UI, features, look and feel everything to what ever you desire, the phone is completely in your hands, where as iphone users might miss all these stuff, nothing to do there, there is a lot of immense knowledge that could be gained by android development and its a really fun thing to do..you can overclock the processor, underclock it, undervolt it, make the phone run as battery saver for 15 days non-stop, make it a hard core multi tasker, everything is in your hands! Thats the power of development ;)
[General Topics] bellendone:
Many thanks gor this, exactly the kind of advice I'd hoped for.

My aim is to buy a suitable android phone, customize it and then casually drop into conversation at work the RZoM I have flashed. The look on the faces of the existing phonebores will be priceless.

In truth I am crazing for the same phonebores status.

Thank you.
[General Topics] barnstarr:
Glad to hear you are considering the change from iOS to android. It's about time.

Android’s open source means that a lot of customization can be done on these devices, unlike iPhone, which has a closed structure, with limited scope of customization. There is a separate menu option to customize home screens which is not possible in iPhone, even after jail breaking.

A small list of the possibles for android devices:

1. True App Integration

2. Flash

3. Controlling Your Phone From Your Computer

4. Custom ROMs

5. Wireless App Installation

6. Removable Storage and Battery

7. Widgets

8. Custom Home Launchers

9. Automation

10. Alternate Keyboards

You know you need to make the change. You know it makes sense

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android.francis:
I need help and this has been driving me nuts for the past hour of two. I placed 2 new music albums to my internal SD card (/storage/sdcard0/Music) and for some reason my music player cannot detect them. What I did is I checked the entire Music folder for any .nomedia but there is none. I downloaded a SD scan app and still the same.

The last resort i did is i deleted everything from my music folder and transferred everything again from PC to the S3. Now after doing that, the new albums appeared BUT one of the older albums is not showing! I checked the folder via Root Explorer and MyFiles and the album and songs are in my internal SD card. Like I said in my first statement, these albums/songs are located in just one folder.

Same result if I use the stock music app or a third party app like N7.

I am now frustrated and lost :eek:

I am currently using LI8.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
Try clearing data in "MediaScanner" in the applications manager, and then rebooting. Give it a little while as it can take a few minutes to scan the entire phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beatsleigher:
Try putting the music somewhere else on your SD, before deleting caches and data... If that doesn't work, you can always just delete the cache of your music player, that usually works, but try not to delete the Media Scanner's Cache, that means it will take longer to boot and get to the launcher...

If you want, you could also just download Google Play Music, it's better than Samsung's Music player (Because Music Player leaves a second out of the music..) and Play Music is much smoother than Sammy's..

Try one of those and if it still doesn't work, do the Media Scanner Cache.

Anyways, hope I could help you!
