[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I have the same issue at one of my locations. Went from great signal to barely any and lots of failed text and dropped calls. I would like to throw in there that I did suspect maybe an airrave was the reason since we have a few new neighbors. I asked Sprint and they had no issue with looking up the area for an airrave. And they did look up the area for one. Not like they have to give you the persons address or ssn just to trouble shoot a problem. Anyways no one had one. They blamed it on a tower that's overcapacity. And I'm assuming maybe the construction work being done in the area plays a role in it. Maybe they knocked down a tower to build these new houses or their equipment interferes with the frequencies. Idk but my service became crap since then..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Not sure if it was a tower or what. Couldn't freaken getsprint on the phone. Tried emailing them but that portion of the website was "being enhanced". Wasn't trying to leach by the way lol. But after flashing back to a twiz rom and doing multiple hands free activations it worked. On my fiancees phone I changed her rom and did the same thing. Connection has been restored. Thanks everyone for all the info I have gotten in here. I appreciate it :)

Found my old USB OTG adaptor that I used with my SE Xperia Arc S and thought why not give it a go.

This is when I discovered the usb port on the Arc S (which i assumed was angular), and the OTG cable are

square

micro USB, not narrower at one side like all of the other cables i've seen - and the ports on numerous other devices (RAZR i included).

Specs say both are called micro USB, but one is entirely incompatible with the other as there is no way in hell it will plug in to the RAZR i...

True story :good:
[RAZR i Accessories] Le_Poilu:
There's 2 kind of MicroUSB connectors: Micro-A and Micro-B

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus

The most commun is the B shape, it's the one you find an almost all smartphone MicroUSB compliant.

Strange that the Arc S use a MicroA shape...
[RAZR i Accessories] batwingnz:
Cheers for that, yeah its odd the Arc seems to have the A shape as pictured, will shift the cable with the phone.

The HTC Amaze 4G does too. Odd I agree.

I just had this problem today. My HOX screen is not responsive on the middle part of the lcd. The part where the blue line not connected is where the problem is. I've found that the left side of the screen has a really tiny crack. I suppose I have to replace the screen. But I don't know if I have to replace the digitizer only or replace the whole lcd itself. Has anyone ever encounter this problem.
[HTC One X] Michealtbh:
I had a similar problem but at the bottom of the screen. Got it repaired by HTC under warranty. As yours is cracked they probably won't honour the warranty. Afaik you'll have to replace the whole LCD/digitizer assembly as the digitizer can't be replaced seperately
[Focus General] BRi7X:
Hello everyone!

After finally getting an external battery charger, I've been able to use my Samsung Focus again.

I'm still, however, having USB connectivity issues.

Here's what I've tried.

-Reinstalling Zune

-Using other USB ports on my laptop.

-Using another computer

-Reinstalling the Samsung USB Driver

-Using a few different microUSB cables, including one from another Samsung phone

-Cleaning the microUSB port.

-installing WMDC

EDIT: -I've also made sure my phone's in Zune Sync USB Mode in the Diagnosis app.

When I connect the device, it says "Unrecognized USB Device Detected", I've tried replacing the drivers with the Zune driver, which works half the time, but it still has a yellow caution icon next to it. Saying things like "the device cannot start", "a request for the USB device descriptor failed.", and "device enumeration failed".

So now it's down to it being the software on the phone or the phone microUSB port.

I'd love to hard reset and see if it's the software, but if it's the port and I've reset, then I'm screwed.

I've searched numerous forums, including this one, and still haven't seen any working solutions.

EDIT: Also, I've noticed in the Battery Status app... it'll say "charging" for a few seconds and then go to "discharging".

Some specs:

Phone:

-Samsung Focus SGH-i917R

-Rev 1.3 on AT&T

-Windows Phone 7.10.8107.79

-DFT Freedom ROM [I guess it was a Rogers version]

Laptop PC:

-Dell XPS17 L702X

-Windows 8 Release Preview 6.2.8400

-Intel Core i7 2720QM @ 2.20GHz

-NVIDIA GeForce GT555M (3GB) @ 1080p120

-16GB DDR3 Dual Channel Memory

If anyone can help, it'd be huge!

And if there's anything I've neglected to mention, please let me know and I'll edit the post.

Thank you so much!
[Focus General] BRi7X:
So I ended up doing a hard reset, and much to my dismay, it's still spitting out USB Device Not Recognized. It reset to the DFT Freedom (Chinese New Year) ROM I have on there, which I didn't quite expect... I'm wondering if that's the problem or not. When I get closer to my upgrade next month (Lumia 920, here I come) I'll likely get ballsy-er, and might even dismantle the phone and see if there's anything physically amiss with the port.

Still, any suggestions, feel free.
[Focus General] bsriedman:
Have the same issue. Did same as you searching internet for any hints.

Have had this issue for 6months now, just been living with it and syncing files to skydrive and Gmail with WiFi.

I even took phone apart down to the circuit board level to see if anything noticeable or maybe connector or any components with broken solder. Hit it with some heat from SMT soldering iron to get a bit of reflow in that area, didn't make a difference. Ohmed it out as far as I could go thinking data lines were shorted or something...no luck.

I'm leaning toward this being a USB receiver chip level issue inside the Samsung Focus. Was hoping it would be something simple. Who knows, maybe that ROHS solder wiskering issue is haunting me somewhere in that phone.

FYI this issue came up around same time I had the repeated chiming issue. The one that only goes away when you do plug in the USB connector with charger or PC. Luckily haven't experienced that issue in 5 or so months. But did have it dissappear for a month then reappear again back then, so anything goes.

Note about 2 months ago I plugged phone into computer and it tried to sync up, zune popped up. I got excited, but after remove and plug in again, have not seen been able to get it back since.
[Focus General] Purged:
I too am having the same problem.

First of all, be warned - if you decide to pull apart your Samsung focus, it's easy to do, but I found that the SMT port for the antenna is VERY fragile.

Steps to open it after turning it off:

1) open back plate.

2) pop out battery, sim, and expansion memory

3) take out the 7 screws.

4) with a flat blade (whether that be a screwdriver, flat tweezers, or even a guitar pick), insert it in the gap between the chrome and the FRONT of the phone, then gently twist to pop the "back" off.

5) You will now need to separate the volume buttons from the side of the phone (the plastic comes out easy enough).

This is a sticker back, and getting it off is hard and can tear easy.Take your time.

From there, there are several flat PCB sections that have multipin connectors hidden under them. They need to be pried off - they do not require a lot of force.

Now the big reason not to do this:

The f$#%ing antenna connector. It will pop off, but the connections to the mainboard are VERY fragile. I'd suggest pushing against it and use tweezers to rotate and lift the connector.

All that said, I've been looking for a cause for the problems you've been having - there is one other symptom you haven't mentioned, and this has been a problem for a lot of focus owners - the constant dinging. You may not be getting it (if you're phone is on vibrate, then it's no surprise), but every time the device "sees" the usb connection to charge, it Dings (at least, for me).

Yeah. I *want* to either fix it, or drop it in the toilet.

My phone is off any warranty already, and Samsung refuses to help. I'm not buying any more Samsung products ... and before this, I was humming and hawing between the Nokia 920 and the ATIV S (for the screen size).

I have recently upgraded from a Galaxy S to the S III. I like the phone, however I am about ready to pay the re-stocking fee, and find another. My issue is that I can not sync any documents with my PC, using the USB Cable. With Kies, it will sync everything else (all the "play" things - photos and MP3's), but I use it for work and I need to be able to sync .pdf files and documents. I have use "Documents-to-go" since I switched to android OS, and ActiveSync for my old window phones, but it doesn't work on this Galaxy S III. Can anyone suggest a "work-around", or application that handles this function? Thanks for your help.

Drop box and Quick office. You can access your online documents straight from quickoffice and its cheaper than paying the restocking fee.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mlpoland:
Is there another program besides "Drop Box"? Drop Box is a web based, storage program. I need a simple, connect by USB cable and sync application! Due to our corporate policy, they have the web locked down tight. It seems completely ridiculous that this would be such an issue with the SGH-I747....

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stealthplatano:
I searched the forum and could not find this having been asked, but if it already has been, please feel free to point me in the right direction:

I have a Atrix 4G and lapdock and have been experiencing difficulty with the keyboard/trackpad timing out and becoming unresponsive after a few minutes. I have tried different ROMs (Nottatchtrix, Stock, CM7, CM10 [epinter]) and have purchased the adapter cables to see if the USB connector was not sticking out enough (read about that on another thread). None of that worked. Did RMA with Motorola and they returned it saying it works.

My question is: has anyone attempted to use a USB Bluetooth adapter of some sort to make the Atrix recognize the lapdock as a bluetooth keyboard/mouse.

I was hoping to do this as a solution to my current problem with the lapdock since the HDMI still works.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bchliu:
Not sure why you want to put a BT adapter into the lapdock since the phone already has BT inbuilt. Are you thinking that by putting a BT adapter into the lapdock, you can communicate with the phone separately without the phone actually plugged in? If so, then you are out of luck as the Lapdock is a "dumb device" and will only activate when the phone is plugged in. It does not hold any processing or logic outside of it being a USB hub and basically a KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse). It will not support BT adapters being used in the way you think it will.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamti007:
Hi,

Finally I read all the guides but I have a further question.

I am currently on stock rom without root. I would like to get a custom rom on my device.

What do I need to do? Or better what is necessary to do?

Can I simply flash a custom Rom through recovery?

Or is root necessary, or is cwm necessary?

Thx
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daredj:
First of all, do this thread in questions and aswers seccion

Secondly, get root on your device

Later get cwm5 and learn basic knowledge about download mode, recovery and flash

Once you understand that, install custom roms of other people, you must learn to flash roms and after that, pick a tutorial (use search) and go dev on linux (windows can be used to, but i prefeer linux)

Good luck!

Hello,

my phone is stuck on the 99% on progress bar in the Jedi mod boot - black screen with the nice bluish letter "S" in the middle.

Here is more details. Please pardon my luck of needed details - this is my first attempt to perform something more complicated then attaching a phone to the wifi...

I'm on Tmobile SII (989). I installed the Clockwork recovery mod.

I obtained v9 of Jedi mod.

I went thru the steps outlined on the first page (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1818305):

"Instructions

TWRP Recovery Recommended!

ALWAYS FULL WIPE!

-Download ROM

-Backup your apps with preferred method(app2zip is great)

-Nandroid

-Wipe data ( factory data reset)

-Wipe system (Format system (in mounts/storage) if on CWM)

-Flash ROM

-Wipe cache/Dalvik

-Fix Permissions

-(USE DARKSIDE CACHE SCRIPT IF STILL ON CWM RECOVERY)

-Boot system and DO NOT TOUCH FOR 10 MIN

-After the 10 min, reboot phone and enjoy the Mind Trick

"

Now, I didn't perform "full wipe" - because i don't know how.

but the rest of the steps upto "USE DARKSIDE...." i performed. I also don't know where to locate this "DARKSIDE " script.

Please help. I can't use the phone and enjoying the "Samsung Galaxy Sii" with a nice bluish letter "S" in the middle for about 2 hours now.

P.S. I looked around and came across suggestion to eject the battery and repeat the process (http://www.technostall.com/steps-to...bile-with-jedi-mind-trick-ics-4-0-3-firmware/). I did that 2 times already. Result is the same. Apparently i'm making some simple mistake which i can't understand....

Can you boot back into recovery using the button combo?

If so, try flashing again following all steps. I'll post the darkside scripts if I can find them. Otherwise, Google search "xda darkside wipe".

I don't know if it matters but before the Jedy mod i installed the CyanogenMod 9 as the first after the original Tmobile/Samsung one.

2 questions -

do i run them before or after i install the Jedi ? // instructions seemed to be conflicting on this.

how do i put the zip file on the sdcard ? Odin doesn't see the zip file . it only picls up TARs....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dbabo:
AHA! finally got thru!

I think the major factory was to get the right cwm (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1844637). It also has the dark tools. Other than that - i didn't do anything that would be of any interest to anyone. Just followed the instructions.

My current status - phone is sitting in those 10 minutes of "don't touch me stupid".

As far as this question goes - it can be closed as resolved.

Hello Android devs!

This is my first post ever.

I present to you Tekken Chicken! It's for both beginners and pros. This app is VERY VERY far from being complete at all, however, it will only get better and more accurate with the updates through time.

This app is free for the time being. As it nears completion, I will have a free version with ads, and a non-ad version you pay $3 for.

In the mean time, if you love Tekken, and are looking to surpass all your friends, please download and give feedback/show support!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mk223:
Last night I started to make a phone call and as soon as the line started ringing, the phone became completely unresponsive. The screen was blank, and when I slide out the keyboard, nothing was lighting up, although the phone call was still active (it went to the person's voicemail). I ended up holding down the power button and after a minute or so the phone rebooted itself.

Afterwards the SD that I've used for the past 2 years was unreadable by the phone and later unreadable by my computer. I did a factory reset and the sd was still a no go (I did put another one in and it read fine).

I have had this phone for 2 weeks and have had no other issues yet. Has anyone ever had a similar issue, ie the phone becoming nearly inoperable during a call? .

Also I use the SixAxis.apk and PS3 controller on my OG Evo and I do have a slight lag. I though it was due to Bluetooth. It makes fighting games and precise timing an issue. Do you not have that issue?
