[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HarryPotfleur:
Hello everyone!

I just installed CM9 by the clockworkMod method (after doing a backup of my former official ROM) and it worked great exept I forgot to save my contacts...

So I did another backup of the CM9 and tried to restore the previous ROM, so I would be able to save my contacts and restore the CM9 again.

BUT the restore didn't go well and my phone crashed...

Now I can access both download mod and Clockwork recovery mod, I can see my 2 backups in clockwork recovery mod but when I try, I have the following message:

"data.img not found. Skipping ...

datadata.img not found. Skipping...

[ and it's going on for a few lines...]

Restore complete!"

but it's way too fast (couple seconds) and when I try to reboot I'm stuck on samsung logo.

I tried some solution to unbrick I9000 but nothing worked and I'm kind of desperate after some hours trying to fix it^^

I have clockwork recoverymod v 2.5.1.2 if that's any help.

What can I do to repair my phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aze2learn:
CM9 use CWM 6.x if I'm not mistaken. If your backup was created with CWM 5.x or other version, please try flash the same CWM version first before you restore your backup.

If still fail, mount the storage via CWM and copy clockworkmod folder from your phone into your computer, you can check what file is missing/etc.

You can flash the update from Freeza over the ROM, but you also need to flash "Revert to LF9 Universal Search" found in the OP to have the full google search. Read the thread and see what has been reported...

[Nexus 7 General] itsalexaye90:
I was using my Nexus 7 earlier today then pressed the power button to let it go to sleep for a while, then I went to wake it up to use it and nothing. It was still on because I could hear my notifications going through, and so fourth. After a bit of Google-ing I found a solution and I thought I'd share it with you all here at XDA.

- Press the Power button and hold it for about 20-30 seconds

- It should then reboot and you should be all good :)
[Nexus 7 General] wired57:
yeah, 30 seconds is a reset, hold volume up for it's recovery mode.
[Nexus 7 General] mrsatan:
Yeah I had a problem with the screen not coming back on, but it was only after using usb otg to watch a movie and then disconnecting it with the screen off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boyer61:
Oh crap, just got a new phone from insurance. went to root it using the all in one tool kit.

It's a Verizon LTE version. After it unlocked the bootloader, it went into a bootloop. I can pull the battery and boot into flashboot but the only thing i can do from there is just hit the power button and it restarts. HELP!

EDIT: ok well i relocked the bootloader, unlocked it again and its actually booting past the google screen into the stock boot animation. then it reboots again, not allowing it to boot up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:

Hello, I am new on the forum, but I have already unlock several xperia.

This X10 mini was working fine, but on the last update (last kernel and MiniCM7-2.2.1) I have 2

issues !

-The back key does not give me access to the recovery mode at the boot.

after when the MiniCM7 is loaded,

-Touch screen is not working. so phone is unusable.

I have tested the front panel on an other xperia; it works, so it s a SW issue...

What can i do ?

I clean everything with flashtool.

thanks !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GodspeedFx:
So I never really noticed this until I used my girlfriend's 4s, but my camera seems real slow. When I tap the shutter button, sometimes it literally takes 3 seconds to snap the picture (auto focus on). If I hold down the shutter button and then release when I want to take the picture, the shutter animation shows immediately but if I move the phone right after the animation then the final picture gets all fuzzy even if the one frozen at the animation is clear.

Is this normal and I'm being nitpicky or could I have a hardware issue? It was exactly like this since the day I got it (on stock and on all rooms).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TBurt:
It takes mine about 3 seconds per picture also so it is not just your phone. I am using CM10/Jellybean (nightly 9/24) but I think it also took that long with GB and ICS. So it is normal for this phone. I still think it is a better phone than the Iphone 4s anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GodspeedFx:
Thanks for the confirmation ;) It's a much better phone than the 4s, and even the 5 in my opinion.. hah. I would never be able to switch to iOS after experiencing the freedom of Android!

Hi everyone !

Is it possible to downgrade HBoot without braking warranty ? I gave my phone for warranty some time ago with 1.18 and it came back with 1.21 ;( and there is only JuopunutBear method which probably breaks warranty permanently :/ . Is there the other way ? :confused:

@Damn, now i found THIS thread... But u can still answer my question or make me correct .
[HTC Sensation] flare4000:
You can't downgrade hboot without having s-off first so the only way without voiding warranty (htc-dev unlock) is the method you found, an ruu will not help you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robertlewisca:
I am having an issue with updating a Red AT&T Galaxy Siii OTA. I am not rooted (and have never been rooted on this phone), running stock ROM, currently on baseband I747UCLG1. Everytime I try to update OTA manually, I get an error that says, "Communication Failed. The server is currently unavailable. Your device will automatically check for updates within the next 48 hours."

I have also noticed a few others in the update thread having the same issue, but I haven't seen a solution posted. That thread is mostly about issues with updating on a rooted phone, so I thought I would start a new thread focused on this issue.

I have tried the following:

1. Tried on more than one wifi network to eliminate possibility that there is any issue with my network.

2. Cleared the AT&T Update application cache and tried again - multiple times.

3. Did a full factory reset, and tried again.

None of these has resulted in me being able to update OTA. Are there any others out there like me? Has anyone found a solution yet?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tattooedchick:
I was having the same exact problem. I even changed phones thru warranty. The new phone did the same thing. New SIM card didn't help. I had a guy at tech support to push the update to me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robertlewisca:
I am having mine replaced under warranty as well. I hope it ultimately fixes the problem. What I don't want is to have to contact AT&T tech support every time there is an update and ask them to 'push' it to me - then have to explain the entire issue over again, and be forced to go through their trouble-shooting again which includes them insisting I do a factory reset.

Is there anyone else out there having this issue? I would like to get a sense for whether this is pretty isolated, or whether it's a bit more common.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78c10:
IDK, co-worker with a Skyrocket has had the same issue, but he doesn't care about the update, so he hasn't bothered to get it resolved.

If I didn't have a red GS3, I could goof around and tell you that is what the problem is... :)

Actually, if it were me having the issue, I'd walk into AT&T and have their guys mess around with it. No telling why some have more issues than others.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aboveusonlysky:
i had the exact issue went to att yesterday and tried a new sim card, but that didnt work. i tried everything you did with no suck luck. the want to warranty out my phone but im not dealing with them again so i just rooted and flashed it. i also have the red one... maybe its just this color since it came out later with a different baseband version? :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Not really a solution but you could install this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1902178 to be fully stock LH9 with Root. Or use the OTA zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896773.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 78c10:
No, It's not just because it's red, regardless of their original baseband versions.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robertlewisca:
You mention in your signature that your phone is rooted. So, did you update OTA then root, or did you update after rooting through some other method? The challenge some of us are having is that we are not rooted, and cannot update OTA because of the 'server error' it gives us everytime we try.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robertlewisca:
Problem Solved - for me at least

Well, the problem is solved for me, and I thought I would share what I found out here in hopes it helps someone else.

First, I had the phone replaced under warranty. It appears to be a brand new phone. When I received the new phone, I started it up, went through the normal startup stuff - entered my Google account information, it backed up my info and settings. Before I loaded any apps, I went straight to the update screen, and tried to check for an update. I again got the 'communication failed' error. Bummer.

So, then, I did a factory reset on the new phone, but this time instead of entering the initial Google account info on the startup screens, I skipped through all of the initial screens, got to the home screen, then went straight to the update screen - and this time it worked! So, it must be something to do with the initial screens, and entering Google account information that caused the problem.

Then, I got to thinking - perhaps this might work on my old phone too. Since I just got the warranty phone today, I still had my old phone (which needs to be sent back). So, I did a factory reset on it, skipped all of the initial screens where it asks for Google account information, and it still didn't work on the old phone. So, I'm not sure what the original issue was.

By the way, after the update installed on the new phone, and I went through and entered all of the Google account settings, and then checked for the update again, and there was no error.

So, perhaps this might be helpful for others?

Hi, i am in doubt which sdcard buy, Class 6 or 10. Using as a swap partition and sd-ext for apps? I researched and saw that sdcard class 10 are slow in write random ... This Transcend 16GB Ultimate Class 10 is good? someone uses? Thanks.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KartzXDA:
If you are creating partiiton and linking apps better to go with higger class.

My experience :

I bought Sandisk Ultra 16GB Class 10.

I got average write speed not less than 9 MB/s.

I have created partition and linked apps using link2sd. Working fine simply awesome. No lags while opening apps or FCs.

If you afford higher class. Go with it. Happy reading. All the best. :victory:

P.S: I don't know about other sd cards. This is truely my experience with sandisk.

Hit "Thanks" if anyone helped you.:good:

Hi All,

I've been waiting on the ICS update since May, and to this day whenever i check for updates it is still "No Update Available". Does anyone have the same issue? I'm weary of trying to root / flash / whatever you call it my phone to ICS, but there seems to be so many different rom's and links I am afraid i'll screw it up.

Go to settings/about phone

Post all info here. I'll guide u in flashing a stock ics...

Swyped From My Flavoured Juicy AOKP JB.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msedek:
Lol poor.. Gladly you are in the right place to get ics on your phone...

1. Do a backup in your pc of all your stuff.. Photos/files etc..

2. Change your csc whit this *#272*IMEI# in the dialer.. Of course change the IMEI word on the string for your note's IMEI change from what ever it is to DBT.. DBT its the code for Germany and Germany always gets the updates first so most likely you will prepare your phone to receive further updates first than everyone via ota or Kies..

3. Download the latest Germany rom from sammobile.com/firmware not sure the exact date but it's from September.. And it's the LRT rom..

4.Get odin from Dr. Ketans tools thread in general subforum

5.once downloaded the rom put your phone in odin mode power+home+volume down until the phone gets to odin mode then press volume up to accept the warning.

6.if you don't have Kies installed on your pc get the drivers from Dr ketans tools thread too and install the drivers... If you have Kies installed then make sure it's not running before you connect the phone to the pc via usb wire..

7. Unzip the file you downloaded from sammobile.com.. Open odin and do not touch the checkmark.. Only go to PDA and Press the button... Then put there the file you just extracted.. The 900+mb file...

8. Before starting all this make sure you have more than 50% battery, plug your phone to your pc and a yellow rectangle should turn on In odin... If so you are good to go and press start...

That's it.. Wait until it finish the process the phone will reboot select your language.. And done you have the latest ics and with the code that Samsung its used to update first...

Btw try to do all this on a laptop or a pc with ups because a power failure while flashing the ICS with Odin will brick your device..

Cheers and enjoy

Now you are on downloading Odin mode..

Any help?
[HTC One X] high_voltage:
Send it for repair. It's known hardware fault(the pins that make contact with the antena are bended so they don't put pressure on it->weak signal). I hope my answer help you+search for the thread in this forum section about the issue.
[HTC One X] JccageX2:
It's not one of the older ones with the Wi-Fi fault though. Sending it back to repair won't do anything.

Is there no firmware/software fix?
[HTC One X] shadehh:
Yeah a firmware will fix it. Dubbed 2.Keep.56.Dreaming
[HTC One X] JccageX2:
The pinch thing does nothing to it so it's not hardware.
[HTC One X] sibv1970:
Mine is the same. Been for repair. No problem. Signal bars say otherwise. And battery agrees.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
Not sure if I'm just mis reading your post but do you mean it still isn't working?

Wouldn't surprise me, they didn't repair mine two times. They just reflashed the software lol

Send em in again, same process, just tell htc that they really need to sort out their service centers or start doing repairs themselves, and that your hox still having problems

Even if the pinch fix doesn't work, it could be that your antenna pins are bent, but the polycarbonate bits they added to make it stronger, are now stopping the pinch fix working

What I mean, is that they did half the repair, it's supposed to be a replacement main board, so the pins are new and not deformed, and then also the polycarbonate bits so it doesn't re occur.

Sending it for repair again is the best option

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------

That doesn't mean it isn't hardware. My above post explains the fix. In your case I suspect that even if you don't have an older model, the pins could have still been bent on assembly in the factory. So basically you already have the polycarbonate spacers, but also 'pre' bent pins, so bad wifi signal but the pinch test doesn't work, because the spacers are there.

Send it for repair :) hope this helps.
[HTC One X] JccageX2:
Really don't want to send it for repair, that's going to take absolutely ages. I'd rather just get a different phone if there isn't a software fix.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
Depending how long you've had it, you might still be within a replacement period with your retailer.

Hardware can't be fixed by software :-\

Just my opinion, htc screwed up big time with the qc on this phone, they rushed it. However, when it works it is a truly brilliant phone. Wifi is also really good when it works, compare your situation (which I was in, crap signal even when next to router) to now being able to connect when I'm about 200 metres from my house. I've never seen such a small device have such a great wifi signal.

It's worth the wait :)
[HTC One X] JccageX2:

[HTC One X] Eggcake:
My WiFi signal is also weaker than on other phones, like my old HTC Desire. It's a bit annoying to be honest, but that's the only problem I have with my phone (got it in april). It's not the WiFi bug, sadly.
