Deffo seems tougher! :good:

There's also a scratch test which looks good too. A guy Key's the screen well to reveal no scratches. They learnt from the flimsy s3.

They need to learn from this flimsy launch now

3 hard drops, and the GNote2 took them all. Painful to watch the video, but good to know it can take a such drops well :good:
[Galaxy Note II General] freemini:
I find GizmoSlip's videos much better. I mean this one seems more natural, but you never know how the phone will fall. I doubt it survives a fall from chest height on the screen for example. It will surely not crack if it falls on it's back either..
[Galaxy Note II General] Hotobu:
This is why all of these drop test videos are stupid. They're unscientific and anyone who's taken even grade school science should know better than to pay them any attention. Without stabilizing the height or the angle of impact this "test" is silly. A REAL drop test would be securing the phone and hitting it with a piston at different angles, or better yet squeezing it with a known force until significant damage is done then approximating the height of said squeeze. Multiple drops within the same test are also questionable seeing as the phone could be getting weakened after each drop therefore making it easier for the following drops to do damage.

This is the least important thing when a phone is "bricked"

1. What were you trying to flash?

Can you post the link to it?

2. Get the original cable if possible. You can borrow from any friend of yours.

Before flashing any firmware,

I can't offer much at this point on your information, other than I had a friend with a brand new SGSII, who when I supplied him the exact same files and method as I used, he got stuck at the same point.

He eventually had to go back to the store, where they swapped it for a new one (which he then flashed fine). Perhaps defective? I dunno.

I would add to the 'try another cable' by saying 'try another USB port. Also make sure Kies is not running as well as Odin.

Good luck!

[HTC EVO 3D] Sam0101:
I was following Max_Pain's guide to get 3g and mms working on my evo 3d for metro pcs. I downloaded the epst.apk he posted and put it in the system/app folder, but when I reboot and put in the ##data# to edit some stuff it didnt do anything. Is there a way to fix this? Any and all help is greatly appreciated. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
That only works on GB and below, is that what you're on?
[HTC EVO 3D] Sam0101:
No i'm on ics. I just downloaded the android revolution rom i'm on and got the epst.apk from the system/app folder there. thnx for the reply though.

I also wanted to know, I want to flash another rom, but that changes the APN setting right? (Thats what my friend tells me) So is there a way to back up the apns on ics that isn't using apn backup & restore?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
You could always manually copy the original apn file and place it on your sdcard. I know its a bummer, ics wont allow third party apps to write to it. Then you could just copy that backup onto the new rom you flash in the folder it is located in. I am not quite sure where this file is located.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sam0101:
so the apn's are just all in one file? I mean i can make a backup of the apn's wit the app. Saves it as an xml. But idk how I would restore it from that if ics won't let 3rd party apps write....

Working fine for me
[Galaxy S I9000 General] adytum:
Mms is such an annoying technology. I've had these issues since my first phone with Wap.

I believe it's often up to how carriers handle the data traffic related to sending and receiving Mms. Some carriers enables you to use the necessary data connection even when your data connection has been deactivated on your system. If not, then messages often hang like you describe, being unable to stop and re download.

The only solution I know of is having data connection activated before receiving or sending Mms.

Sent from horseback.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dzek90:
I thought it may be related to the carrier but I didn't recall having any issues when I was using ICS, but this last month has been very tedious. But not many people appear to have the same issue so it probably isn't rom related.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] adytum:
There should be some workarounds possible that I have yet to try (only time I get Mms are from relatives older than 60), something that involves modifying how apn profiles work. There was some option in juice defender to use an old apn method that worked for me, it's all I can think of right now.

Considering we haven't had a leak for almost 2 weeks now theres a good chance a lot of people aren't checking everyday anymore. (The usual routes for getting the ota leaks are still not working anyway). Dont know how theirs was released yet.

I for one would not have known until someone mentioned it.

Here's what I did when I got the same issue:

1. I booted into Clockwork recovery. Once there I wiped everything incl. "Dalvik Cache" and "Battery Stats" in advanced menu.

Manually formated every step in "Mounts and Storage" menu (EXCEPT FOR SDCARD of course!). Even tho that step might not be necessary

2. Did a factory reset.

3. Removed SD-card and put it in my putor. Then copied a ROM to the card.

4. Booted into download mode (hold Volume down + Home + Power buttton) and flashed a kernel with Odin.

5. Booted into Clockwork recovery and installed ROM from zip.

This worked like a Clockwork for me, No guarantees from me tho! :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sintricate:
I bought this phone in June because my original Evo 4G stopped working on me. After a month I decided I wanted to move on to Verizon as Sprint didn't/doesn't have LTE in my area.

I assumed I'd be able to sell the phone in order to pay my ETF. I read online that it was possible. I then contacted Sprint to see if this was true and they informed me that it was not and that if I would like to sell my device I'd have to pay my balance which has grown a bit since ending my contract.

All that being said, the point of this thread is that now I have a mint condition phone sitting in the box on my desk. (This is not a classified post)

My whole point is, what options do you think I have at this time? Sprint says I can't sell it without paying my huge balance, I've already purchased a GS3 on Verizon so I don't exactly need this thing. I hate to let it sit in it's box doing nothing as it is a very nice device... and I'm definitely not giving it away :p

What would you do with it?

The sad thing is, I'm always wishing the camera application on my GS3 was as awesome as the one on the Evo. I really like the Evo 4G LTE but I couldn't live with 3G anymore.

I can't use is as a PMP because my GS3 handles that duty just fine...

Don't mind my babbling rant/complaining :silly:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] metalfan78:
It's your phone, you can sell it whenever you want to. But if you owe money, then the esn number will be blacklisted and whoever buys it will not be able to activate it until the balance on your account is zero.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] billyapd21:
Sprint will not let anyone else activate the phone untill you settle your balance with them. You could sell the phone for what you owe on your sprint account and pay off Sprint. I don't know how much you owe Sprint but it could end up being a wash and least you won't have it affect your credit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sintricate:
Yeah, that's what I meant. My balance is a bit more than I could sell the phone for and I'd be more than happy to pay the balance if I was able to sell the phone to help offset a huge chunk of it.

Have to sell it to someone who wants ro flash it to a prepaid service live metro pcs, bad esn doesnt matter to them companies

you could sell your phone with your sprint contract you just wont get that much for the phone but will relieve you from your contract. thats is your best option. you could just get rid of the phone for like 50 to 100 dollars but they have to take the contract that remains on that phone.

I have been using cyanogen to update the phone for the last 6 months and just recently in the last two months the updates will reset all applications and settings to factory and will change the language to Spanish. Has this got something to do with me being in Spain. I have no idea how to correct the problem. Everytime I update I make sure I wipe the dalvik cache, although it started happening when 1 time I forgot to wipe the dalvik cache.

cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raShMan777:
the only idea i have right now is that it's not about the dalvik cache but that there's an update-script in the update-zipfile that automatically deletes/resets various settings. maybe the rom developer integrated it because it is needed.

and when your sim is spanish then that's the reason that the standard language afterwards is spanish.

hope that helped you. :fingers-crossed:

I have been using a rooted IncS for more than a year now and finally want to make the switch from HTC to Samsung. One of the biggest drawbacks for me when using a rooted IncS was that I had to use a Sense based ROM to maximise the my camera experience. I understand some .apk relating to the camera has not been released by HTC hence AOKP/ASOP ROMs are unable to offer the same camera experience as Sense ROM.

My question is whether the same restrictions apply to a Samsung phone and would I be required to use a touchwiz based rom to best utilise my camera? Or would I be able to get the same camera experience in AOKP/ASOP ROMs.

I did try looking for an answer but was unable to locate one. In the event I missed out on it and end of repeating this question I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
