[Galaxy S II Accessories] Wezi:
I would have recommended the

Arcadia Rapiduo, 10W 5V/2A Dual Port high-speed USB car charger w/ Free Full Speed Micro-USB Charging Cable (IMP80C)

Which i bought for £7 literally a few days ago (was on UKHotDeals), but it seems since to have gone back to £19.99, which i would not have gone near at that price, but read the reviews and see how you feel.

I use the official car charger and have never had a problem. Drove a 300mile trip with copilot running and screen brightness at 100% and came out of the car with it fully charged, even though it was at 60% when I started the journey.

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

Forgot to say,

Previous I used to use my bros unofficial one (can't remember the make) and it would never keep the phone at a level % when using copilot with screen on full, it usually slowly went down.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] petesuen:
I have always used those cheapo ones from eBay. They are like about $3 AUD, with a retractable cable. There are cheaper ones too.

I haven't used it for a long distance trip to share the experience, but I've use it when I use google navigation + bluetooth music playback.

It discharges more than it charges, but it's very negligible.

Having said that, I don't like drawing too much power from the car, so for me this charger is sufficient.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Der_müde_Joe:
Hello,

I try to solve the dischage Problem for a long time. I can´t solve it.

This is what i have tryed:

1. Some USB Car Charger. Best i found was the Kensington Power Bold Dou with 5V and 2,1A.

2. You have to put the Data+ and Data- Lines in the USB Cable togehter. Than the S2 changes from USB Loading Mode with 500mA to Normal loading Mode with ... more.

After i did this its possible that the S2 can use GPS and other Apps without of loosing power. But it´s not enough to chage the phone while driving...

Greetings and sorry for my bad english
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MissClueless:
Hello everyone

at first I also tested a no-name product,

but the battery level sunk faster then it was filled up again.

Now i got the original Samsung car charger

and not longer problems with this.

Greetings :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aciong.Aksaya:
As stated in the subject. How will I correct that?

I already searched but yes there is no application could execute the function selection but I don't know what/how to correct.

Pls help. Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
defaultthemes.apk missing or corrupt. Have you altered anything or running a stock based modified ROM?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aciong.Aksaya:
Thanks for quick respond mate. Just what I am thinking.

I did flashing Pureness B13 apps + Timescape (from DJ JS thread) into Jelly Sandwich V6.

the result was great this was the only thing I'd like to fix for fully working tweaked ROM.

Hit the buttons for yah. Have a nice day! :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aciong.Aksaya:
Wait

Hmmm.. I did flashing it but nothing happened the problem still exist. Hmmmm... How is that now?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] rajxelton:
copy and paste stock DefaultThemes.apk or you can get some themes in neo themes and app section. fix permission to rw-r--r--. then reboot .
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aciong.Aksaya:
nah

I already flashed one mate.

Is there any difference between flashing and copy & pasting?

I think there is nothing. Same effect, it only differs in execution.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] iamdchosen1:
Yes they have the same effect..

The only difference between the two is that flashing is done of the zip file which automatically replaces the apk files with the right permissions..

Whereas the other way is manual.. You have to manually copy the apk file into the root directory and apply the permissions by yourself!

Sent from my Xperia Neo V
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] rajxelton:
No. they have same work, to copy/replace apk in /system.

which theme you flashed ?

They really like screwing with us early adopters :-\
[Galaxy S III General] speedyjay:
Thats gonna suck big time....1.6ghz quad core processor and the same 2100mah battery....i feel sorry for anyone buying that. I'll stick to the device that makes sense 1.4ghz quad core, no 4g or any of that crap and decent battery life thanks
[Galaxy S III General] samydroid:
What's the advantage of having overclocked 0.2ghz processor? As rightly said above, its battery time that'd suffer. And by the way, as far as the internals are the same, we are not screwed. Like both int'l and ntt versions have exynos 4412 so extra 0.2ghz doesn't matter at all!
[Galaxy S III General] trein91:
It's not overclocked. the 1.6ghz one is revision 2.0 while we have revision 1.1. That 1.6 is their base clock speed afaik, meaning they can overclock to even higher than our max of 1.8ghz. (I might be wrong though)

EDIT: Maybe one month after it's released in japan, they'll make i9310 (with 1.6ghz 2gb ram) And after another 3 months, they'll make i9315 (1.6ghz 2gb with mali t604).
[Galaxy S III General] Madarox:
What would you expect ? Samsung is known for making a big*** amount of variants for their flagships,just check the number of variants for the S2..Some of them got HD screens.
[Galaxy S III General] NatTheCat:
It's not a bad thing, for customers. It is for developing though..
[Galaxy S III General] gaspernemec:
Not bad thing for customers? Paid 500€ for phone and it is obsolete after few months....yeah thats good for customers.....im thinking about selling it and getting note II or i9305 at least
[Galaxy S III General] dark_polok:
Hold that thought. Wait and see what samsung decides to do with the lack of support for exynos chipsets situation. I'm so mad about this. I think a lot of people are. Afterall I bought the S3 for the good hardware and the developer friendliness of samsung devices. Atleast that's what I knew before buying it. Now I see it's a whole different story. I personally am gonna wait like 2 months max. They fail, I'll sell this and get the next nexus maybe. What say? Also S4 chipset much better than exynos in all possible ways. Also I read somewhere in XDA some time back that Qualcomm chipsets are easier to deleop for atm. The only thing here is it's going to be an LG... an LG =\

I really hope their wheels start spinning with the Nexus release, coz as far as i know... developement is most active on HTC and Samsung smartphones.
[Galaxy S III General] XDA mark:
You paid 500 for the S3 that's still the same S3. The fact that they released a slightly better variant on the other side of the world doesn't make your device worse.

I think people shouldn't care so much about owning the best. This is how the world is: they keep releasing better stuff so fast, you can't always have the best. And it doesn't really matter, it's just a small difference, our S3 is fast and that S3 will be fast.

Instead of having an S3 and paying so much money for another S3 which is barely different, buy a Galaxy Nexus which is much cheaper. Dual core and much smoother then all S3's...
[Galaxy S III General] Skander1998:
It is the SAME CPU, SAME internals, it is OVERCLOCKED, nothing special.
[Galaxy S III General] Mr_Maz:
Agreed, Just because something new comes out it doesn't mean the original is useless.

If you are going to buy a top spec mobile phone then you need to realise it's outdated the moment you take it home. You buy the best you can, with the money you have, at the time you need/want to buy it.

or you can sit back and wait for the latest and fastest device and end up waiting for ever as the next one will always be better.
[Galaxy S III General] b-eock:
They don't fail. They hold more than 30% of the world's mobile phone market. More than anyone else. And the S4 PRO compared to the current Exynos 5250 paired with the Mali-T604 is already beat. As you can't compare old to new. That's the latest Exynos vs. Snapdragon processor comparison. Samsung hasn't really failed us. Just wait and let them fix their mistakes. And all the multi Nexus device. Is bull. Just let the time come and get what you want, stop bashing Samsung...
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
Ill be able to duplicate this Variant soon .. all i need to do is overclock my I9305 by 200Mhz and BAM all of a sudden i have exaclty the same device. All the hardware is the same
[Galaxy S III General] bondx99:
Forget this one but i9305 was really a "in your face! early adopters" by Samsung!
[Galaxy S III General] Shudder123:
i wouldn't even bother with the japanese variant. launcher looks horrendous. not to mention its just a minute upgrade
[Galaxy S III General] keirmccann:
Software rules the roost with phones now, most phones are capable of doing similar things and only software seperates them from the pack.

I will be happy with my SIII for a long time to come i believe especially with the development community.

Would you be happy with your SIII if you'd never read about this new revision? I think so.
[Galaxy S III General] palanku:
Youre absolutly right...phone makers only cares for money, nothing else
[Galaxy S III General] dark_polok:
By fail I meant failure to provide proper support for exynos by a month or two, and not failure as a smartphone manufacturer. I'm well aware that they hold a huge chunk of the world's mobile phone market. Exynos 5250 is a beast there's no denying that. Don't get me wrong. I love the exynos chipsets. They performs better than any other chipset of its equivalent generation. It's just the lack of support that's getting me. I miss using smooth n properly optimized aosp/aokp roms. The one's there are available now are nowhere near to the nexus in terms of smoothness despite having a hardware that's more than twice as much powerful.

Not bashing samsung. In-fact I used to be hardcore HTC. But the main reason [or atleast 75%] why I switched to samsung is for the exynos chipset. I'm really hoping they provide proper support for it soon.
[Galaxy S III General] b-eock:
Yeah when they don't provide the documentation I understand why you're mad, I am too. I would like a fully buttery AOSP/AOKP ROM

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clement.contet:
Hello,

I have a problem sending MMS since I've upgraded my phone from official Samsung ROM to CM9.1.

(I've tried to post in the related CM9 thread in the "development" section but I'm not allowed since I have less than 10 posts ==> could a moderator move my question there or someone crosspost it in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1592131 ?)

Anyway, here is my bug report:

What is your--

Phone model: Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000

Radio (baseband): I9000XXJVT then I9000XXJW4

CM version: 9.1

CM Download url: http://get.cm/get/jenkins/7080/cm-9.1.0-galaxysmtd.zip

Gapps version: gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

Did you--

wipe: yes

restore with titanium backup: no

reboot after having the issue: yes

Are you using--

a task killer: no

a non-stock kernel: no

CMSettings/Performance settings (other than stock): no

other modifications: no

Since I've upgrade from Samsung official firmware to CM9.1 I can't send MMS. But I am able to receive them (though they are compressed to < 10 ko). This makes me think that my phone model is not reckognized by the network (hence the ultra high compression of pictures I receive) so I have looked in the mms_config.xml in the Mms.apk. And I have indeed found that there is no User Agent indicated there and that the UAProfURL links to a 404: http://www.google.com/oha/rdf/ua-profile-kila.xml => is it normal?

Then I have tried Go SMS Pro where I can force the UA and UAProfURL but without success. I've also tried changing the stock Mms.apk to a modified one (with other UA and UAProfURL) but without success either.

I think my APNs are OK because,

- I've copied APN configuration from someone with functionnal MMS and it doesn't work for me,

- I've tried SIM card from other carrier than mine, the APNs were correctly reconfigured but I couldn't send MMS either.

My SIM card IS also ok, because in another phone, it can send MMS without problems.

I have tried to send very small pictures (5 ko) but with no more luck.

Do you have any idea of the cause of my problem? I find it especially strange since I run 100% stock CM9.1, so that my problem should affect other users!?

Thanks

Hello, I own a Samsung Captivate.

I had my phone plugged into USB and was transferring files. I tripped over and had it disconnect by force without safely disconnecting first.

Ever since them, phone had "unsuccessful enscripted error" or something. I did factory reset / wipe data (I dont mind doing hard reset/losing files). Still didnt work. It still kept saying Unsccessful Enscripted Error etc. So I lent it to my friend and he went on formatting all the folder in download mode, now I cant even boot to anything.

Currently, if I turn it on, it gets stuck at AT&T screen. If I plug usb onto phone, it has the little loading icon, but its frozen, its not circling around. I cant boot to download mode, I cant get Odin to detect.

Please help, I dont mind going through factory mode or w/e.

Thanks in advance!

Dan.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhm:
Download one click stock restore package(search for it on the forum). Put your phone in the download mode(there are many threads in this forum that describe how to try and force the download mode if it doesn't happen normally). Then run that one click restore package and it should work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
I found this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1266172

And downloaded the rooted .jar file.

It gave my bluescreen multiple times. Anyways, when I placed my phone into download mode and had the software running (bluescreen occurs), my phone went into this screen:

Note that I cannot go to recovery mode :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
K, long story short, that method didnt work.

Apparently, that screen is still in Download Mode, so I just went to Odin and resetted. Worked.

I tried installing gingerbread or something on it, good news is, I can now go into recovery mode. Bad news is, it still doesnt work and when I factory reset, it gives me error while formatting \data\ folder and something \android.secure.

Still proceeding to do more things on it..

**Edit**

K so, basically I used KI2 Kernel and installed on my phone from that screwd up download mode screen. This got me to Recovery Mode.

When I try to start my phone, it just loops on the introduction animation. Battery icons are now showing and moving.

Again, Im thinking its because my friend formatted the /system /dbdata /cache /data /sdcard /sd-ext. Is there way to get those back now that my recovery mode is working? I think my phone is completely missing its OS or something.

When I do factory reset from recovery mode, it says

Formatting /data...

Error mounting /data!

Skipping format...

Formatting /cache...

Formatting /dbdata...

Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...

Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!

Skipping format...

Data wipe complete.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhm:

I think it might have something to do with partition format. Try flashing the UCKK4 with the bootloader version from the thread linked above. That way you'll have gingerbread bootloader if not loaded already. It'll repartition too. Once that is done, you'll have to flash corn kernel with cwm recovery. After that you'll be able to flash rom's of your choice. In future you need not flash gb bootloders.

The mode in the above pic is another form of download mode. I also had that a few times and I could use odin to flash away. I have observed that if the usb cable is already connected with the phone and if you try to put the phone into the download mode, you see this screen as opposed to normal download screen. If you disconnect the usb cable from the phone, you would see normal download mode screen.

If you still get errors pertaining to sdcard it might have become corrupt or gone bad. You could try to manually mount it via the recovery mode and format it.

Good luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
I went on and downloaded this from the link you gave me:

"Odin One Clicks

I897UCKK4 Odin One Click - Stock, CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe"

Had it install successfully and got these:

Installation was done, phone rebooting and had this msg at first:

This is the screen message.

-- Copying media files...

And then on its own, it went to this screen and basically froze there:

When I turned it off and restarted, after wiping cache and whatnot, it went back to boot screen and started looping again.

I had my SD card inserted onto phone when I did this, donno why its saying its missing or not prepared..

---Edit---

I tried installing other things:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
"Encryption Unsuccessful" expert here...

Because there isn't a fix for it; only workarounds. It involves something physically going wrong with the storage on the phone. /data and /sdcard are long gone. It can only be fixed by random luck. Your only usable option would be to use CM9 on the external sd card (see dev section).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
I tried installing Cyanogen Mod. My phone will not be recognized for me to access the driver (I can connect and it'll recognize in Odin, just I cant see the driver to access in My Computer). When they do show up, they show up as "hidden" and I cannot access em.

I tried using micro SD card, still no luck.

Im gonna try to see if I could install using Odin One click... I'll let you guys know, thanks for all the support for now.

--Edit--

Hmm, I just did quick search on Captivate's Dev section for cyanogen, couldnt find any post that's not relevant to installing by using the sd card (since I cant even place my cyanogen rar file into the card for it to be booted on phone).

am I missing something here? A thread that I missed?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhm:
A few things you could try:

1. To install cwm recovery, flash corn kernel using odin. Then try and manually mount sdcard and format it via recovery menu. If you can get into cwm recovery this way, you might be able to flash a rom from your external sd card.

2. One of the rom's (Slim Bean, Lanight or CM9...I don't remember which one for sure) mounts external sd card as /sdcard and internal as /emmc. That rom might work with your external sd card. It might be worth a try. Based on the above post, it sounds like it's CM9. If they fixed that thing, you may have to try and find a script that would map your external sd card as /sdcard.

3. I'm not sure if this is the case with i897 or not but you might want to find out if the internal sd card is removable or not. If it is, you might be able to use another one in its place. You might be able to find out that info online somewhere if you're lucky. Otherwise you would have to disassemble your phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
@1. I went to CWM recovery and tried to manually mount the sdcard, it said error. (E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)

Again, when I tried to format it, it gave me same thing, failed to mount therefore failed to format properly.

@2. I would love to have CM9 installed on my phone right now, Ive been trying everything, use my other phones to somehow get the sd card to read. I tried looking for Odin way to install CM9 or something like so, where it doesnt require me to use sd card to put the zip file into it and have it install from phone. So Im stuck there..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
This post by korockinout13 is the only way to get ur phone workin right now...

Have u tried it yet ??

And the links i posted previously have explanations about this as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhm:
I'm a little confused. Is your internal sd card that is fried or your external sd card or both? If it's only the internal sd card, I'm guessing you should be able to install zip from your external sd card. If it's your external sd card that's not working then you can try using a different sd card or you could use adb to transfer the CM9 zip file to internal sd card. If both are bad then you have to try using a new external sd card. You already may be aware but I'm stating the obvious...there is an option to install a zip from either internal or external sd card via cwm recovery. Or may be that this phone requires internal sd card to be functional in order to work. I guess in that case you will have to somehow map your external sd card as /sdcard. You'll have to ask the experts here if that's feasible or not. It might have already been answered. You may want to try searching for it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danroh:
Im sorry, Im not being lazy here, I am rather quite confused and will need detail info, I practically dont know much about the forum nor the terms etc. I do know basic somewhat, but its very limited.

The only way I know how to install CM9 or any CMs are through external or internal sd. Internal being usb connected and place the CM zip file onto it. External, same method. However, I am in a place where I cant access Internal sd cuz my computer wont let me access the phone driver (although I could connect to Odin). External as well, is not being recognized. As you see from previous pictures, everytime I format or do w/e, it keeps saying sd card errors.

I did read a person saying this: "Assuming it doesn't, I'm going to do a Heimdall or Odin flash to CM7 or stock and go from there."

But, I also tried looking on forum for that, where I could install CM through Heimdall or Odin.. couldnt find any.

As for "uhm"'s post, my cards arent fried (I highly doubt it), and I cant do those things because I cannot access all of my cards (internal / external), I MIGHT be doing it wrong, but I mean... it should at least even show up... I tried putting the CM zip file and gapp onto external sd, couldnt boot it. I cant access phone at all so I cant download any apps to assist me either...

Ive been stuck with this for 6 days googling all over the place, so far, even finding myself to download mode and recovery mode was through XDA community's help, and that alone is greatly appreciated. Which is why I guess I am relying on this community to somehow assist me in getting my phone to work :P
