Hi,

I have an international GSM Nexus S. It's a good phone, but there's a problem: the camera flashlight is not working properly. I'm currently on JB. Whenever I turn the phone off and back on, and go to the camera app and take a single picture with flashlight TURNED ON, it works, however, after that, however many pics i take, the flash simply does not work. I've tried choosing 'auto flash', 'flash on' etc, but the light doesnt work after taking the very first picture untill I do a reboot (the process repeats). The flash isn't working on LED/torch apps either. I updated the phone to JB as soon as I got it, so I don't know if the problem was present on gingerbread too (btw I got a used one). I'm trying out custom ROMs now, but all of them have the exact same problem! What is wrong here? I tried googling it but got pretty much nothing out of it. Any suggestion is appreciated!
[Nexus S General] kwibis:
Can you enable the flashlight as a torch? If so it could just be the camera app (must be). Try cm10 it has a modified camera app.

[Nexus S General] albundy2010:
Very strange. It works once so it is not a hardware defect.

I would try a FULL wipe and start fresh. SD card/internal storage included. Flash the official factory images and try the camera with just that installed. No apps or anything.

If the problem persist, I don't know what to tell you.
[Nexus S General] PlayStationHidden:
No, thats the problem :/... flash only works on the official camera app ONCE after a reboot. No torch app is working!
[Nexus S General] PlayStationHidden:
I have tried fully wiping several times and installing many ROMs and also cleared SD card many times, but no luck. Btw i flashed JB for the first time by flashing a zip from CWM which unrooted the phone completely and installed official JB. Maybe the flashing was correpted homehow? Ill try the factory image, but please rexommend me some noob frindly tutorials on how to flash factory image. Also i just realized that the proximity sensor does not work, and the g - sensor calibration is a little bit off, which also didnt fix by installing many roms. Could it be water damage? I cant see any signs of anything like that though, because the phone is in excellent condition!
[Nexus S General] alen1901:
Try go back to gb or ics and test. I think its deffective hardware. If you still have warranty, bring it to Samsung services

[Nexus S General] PlayStationHidden:
No warrenty unfortunately since its a used phone... I have tried almost everything now. The only thing remaining to try is the fctory image, if that doesnt fix it, what can you do about it? Will have to live with it the way it is :(. Ill report hopefully once ive flashed the image!
[Nexus S General] No DEAL:
i think it seems hardware problem. i'm using well with torch app on cm10!
[Nexus S General] jayjay3333:
Use this to go back to factory.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1785672

If this doesn't work then it is a hardware issue.
[Nexus S General] PlayStationHidden:
So after 6 long hours of trying to figure out how to flash the factory image, I finally did it! The bad news is, flashlight is still the same, and so is the proximity sensor (not working!)... I thank you all for co-operating, but unlickily, I probably have a faulty phone. Going to cry a river now :mad:

How can i remap the home key to take a picture while in camera application
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Exel:
I believe the Camera app has to be modded in order to do this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fateownzyou3:
Oh, well that sucks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] fateownzyou3:
I know how to remap it to do other stuff, such as open the camera. But I guess I can't make the camera take with it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Exel:
Check this out: http://hx-custom-roms.com/galaxy-s3-camera-mod

Not sure if it works with our version, but try it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
You can remap it by editing

System - usr - keylayout - sec-keys.kl

And you'll see the "home" entry. Change it to camera.

But you will lose "home" option unless you have soft keys enabled

[HTC Desire S] wh0d0es:
I've been using 4EXT Touch Recovery to wipe/format before flashing certain roms. Is there a right way on how to wipe/format using 4EXT Touch?

This is how I do it (correct me if I'm wrong):

1. wipe date/factory reset

2. wipe cache

3. wipe cache + dalvik

4. wipe dalvik cache

5. wipe battery stats

6. format system

7. format data

8. format boot

9. format all partitions (except sdcard)

10. format sdcard

11. flash rom
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
If you are flashing an update of the same ROM do "wipe dalvik cache + cache" (in case the Developer has not clearly stated that the update requires full wipe)

If you are flashing a new ROM use "wipe all partition (except sdcard)" it will do all the wipes from the wipe menu, no need to repeat it

And wiping the sdcard every time you install a ROM clearly does not make any sense, you are deleting all you pictures, music and all other files that are not related to any ROM you are using
[HTC Desire S] wh0d0es:
I didn't know that "format all partition (except sdcard)" is the same from 1 to 8. I'll try using it from now on every time I install new roms. Also, I thought that wiping my sdcard every time I install rom is to make that rom fully utilized/functional. And that is why I back up all my pictures, music, and all other files in my laptop. Anyhow, thank you for your simple but very relevant response.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
There are some ROM specific files on the SDcard but a full wipe (all partitions except sdcard) clears them too

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdourado:
Hello,

How are you?

Today the Xoom line got my attention.

I am wanting to buy a tablet.

I am looking for a tablet mostly for web browsing and email and some light apps like tapatalk.

I was thinking about a tab 10.1 because I can get it for a sweet price. My idea was to get it and install cm9 to get rid of touchwiz.

My phone is a nexus and I love the stock android.

Today I saw a sweet deal on a Xoom 2 and an even sweeter deal on a 2 Medi edition.

I did some research on the Xoom and came to see that the original Xoom is a Google experience device that runs stock android and already has the update for jelly bean.

That doesn't seem to be the scenario for the 2 however. From what I read it is still on honeycomb with a Motorola UI.

My question is, since I don't really know the Xoom line, am I saying things correctly?

is it a better option to try to find a used Xoom? Or can I buy the good deal Xoom 2 and then flash a custom 4.1.1? Are there good JB ROMs available?

Thank you.

Cheers
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdcykkk9:
Xoom 2 is a little better device thn xoom but has a locked bootloader. No roms are available because of that for xoom2. Ics is available and hopefully jb in few months. If you want to do more hacks than root overclock and remove few bloodwares don't buy xoom2. Other than that if the price is good, is not a bad tablet.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cubanluke88:
If you value updates/custom development, you should get an original Xoom. Not the ME version. The original 32gb xoom.

Hello,

I bought a used galaxy nexus S that is on version 2.3.6.

It does not seem to be reading any sim cards and the baseband version is listed as unknown.

I think it may be on a custom rom because of this. I want to flash it back to a stock rom but have no idea where to start. I downloaded 4.1.1

the google site. which I can`t link to because I am new here..

my nexus s is I9020A so i downloaded that version of jellybean but have no idea where to go from here.

Are there any easy to follow guides? And am I even on the right track here?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davidstjohn1:
Today I'm experiencing a very strange problem earlier I replaced my battery when I turned it back on, my Wi-Fi signal bars and my regular signal bars stayed gray. I'm not sure how this happened but it would not connect to the Google servers I had no Internet at all. The browser wouldn't work Facebook wouldn't work and I could not get into the market. I had to update profile and PRL to get it to work. After replacing my second battery and turning the phone on, I had the same problem in order to get it working again I had to update profile in PRL again! So my question is is there a problem lately with Google, or sprint it seems like I connect okay but it doesn't turn blue it stays gray. If somebody could shed some light on this I would appreciate it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] motcher41:
I'm on sprint and didn't have an issue like that...I know mine takes a bit after boot for data and Google connection to come up but I'm not on WiFi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davidstjohn1:
I actually found out the problem and it had nothing to do with the ROM or the phone or sprint service ! I had bought brand-new queue cell batteries with the dock charger , when I put those batteries in it would make my phone act funny. Then I try to put my stock battery back in and everything was normal . So just a heads up, Q cell batteries on Amazon, 2 extended batteries plus wall dock charger. BAD!

Hi, im on the verge of a deal for the sale of my galaxy note.

Im looking to get an atrix 2. I like the look of the lapdock. Hows the UI on that thing?

Question is........where can I get one in the uk and how much should I be paying for a new one and how much for a mint second hand one?

And the atrix 2 doesnt even show up on the product list on the motorola uk website!?

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aguacateojos:
Read the beginner's guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1396650) to get an idea of where development for this phone is first. Locked bootloader (with no change in sight), an ICS update which has been moved from Q3 to an indefinite point in the future - it seems like Moto is trying to let this phone quietly die. If you're okay with that then sure, go for it... personally, I would opt for something made by a different company.

This is my first CyanogenMod theme, and its just been put on the market. I'm calling it X-Vision Blue, and its a theme I have put many months into developing and I doubt I will ever finish so please be sure to give me a review positive or negative although if you have some criticism, be kind about it so I can look into fixing any issues. Please get the market version because I will make changes and add other screen sizes over time. Feel free to make any suggestions in the reply posts or market reviews, I will read them all. Also stay tuned for my lime green theme which hopefully won't take too much longer but I do have school work to do in the run up to Christmas but I might make it into a present in the form of a free download link for all who buy my blue theme up to Christmas.

Built for CM10 but should work on any ICS or JB rom with the T-Mobile Theme Chooser

Anyway,

Are you having problems with themes or do you just need general help.

Usually, you can just download a theme from the Play Market.

Most themes will use Go Launcher as a client so that you can use the theme but check the description of each one as any launcher may be used.

If you need additional help, simply ask.
