Hi,

Since the 10.4.4.20 update (stock/no root), Asus weather widget fails to update. Clearing data, disable/enable the widget does not resolve the issue. Has anyone else the same problem?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srbutt:
Hi,

Due to annoying low memory issue of the Stock ROM, I am planning to update my desire to custom ROM, and thinking to put a JB rom. So far I have searched and looked through CM10 JB and AOKP JB. can someone point out what is the difference between these two and also if there is any other suggestions for the best stable JB rom that I can install as my first custom ROM.

Also i hope these roms support using the SD-ext / SD card to profile large memory size for installing applications, so I don't run into low memory issues often which is the case now with STOCK ROM.

I've currently rooted the device with CWM recovery, S-ON and stock Hboot .

On sd-card partition, what is the recommended sd-ext size to go for, 1/1.5GB , and why it can't be set to 2G or above, any specific reason. In one of the thread I have read the sd-ext partition size is also linked with internal memory , can someone please explain that.

Thank you for your support.

Those three words don't mingle together.

As you don't seem too tech savvy, and this is your first time with custom rom, I suggest you look further.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iyigit:
Hi,

as far as i know there still not exist a bugfree JB rom for our device [Desire].

You can try a Gb rom. The best one is very relative term. For me the the best one is Cronmod with very good battery life (daily normal use up to 2 days.) huge internal memory (INTEXT+ 1Gb) fast and smoot and so on...

good luck.

You'll be a little disappointed, because JB ROMs tend to be as large as stock HTC Sense, and you will run into space issues even when using some apps-to-sdext scheme.

MIUI JB

I can recommend MIUI JB: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1850436

On storage: several apps installed (no games) and 150 MB free (out of 500). 2.91 GB free on USB storage. With A2SD storage should not be an issue.

Very stable and fast (certainly compared to ICS). I don't install Facebook as it seems to slow down all the other apps. Therefore I have installed Facebook Lite, loads very quickly!

I have an issue with mobile data (to be clear: not WiFi) but this can be due to my provider (Belgium).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kazemitsui:
So I just installed 2.54 and noticed even with auto rotate not ticked my home screen still rotates. The only way that I can disable it is if I use notification toggles and disable rotate. Before in 2.53 I could leave auto rotate on in notification toggles and untick rotate in trebuchet.

If any one has any ideas on how to solve this that would be appreciated!

I can't always get the wifi icon to appear in the top bar on my Arc S with JJ's Hybrid ROM 3.1 and ArcKnight kernel 2.6.32.9 RC3. I have to swipe wifi off then back on but when it does eventually appear it shows 0 bars no matter how close to a router I am.

EDIT: Nevermind. I was trying to connect to a router on channel 13 which the Arc S seems to have issues with. I switched the router to auto and it chose a lower channel number and now it shows bars.

EDIT2: It's still not showing the wifi icon in the status bar when the screen goes off then I unlock the phone. Even though it says it's connected.

EDIT3: I cannot get the icon to appear at all now!

It's come back again but NO BARS! This is seriously frustrating.

Surprising, I've read stories about poor repair services from Samsung before, but I thought the Galaxy S2 issues were mostly resolved... Go figure.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Well Samsung have really done a number on me. Simply terrible. There's a complete disconnect between Samsung as a company and the Authorised Samsung Service Centres. It seems that they are leaning heavily on blaming everything and anything (regardless on actual cause) on any slight discolouration of the the liquid sensitive patches, which over time will all show a slight discolouration on the edges due to atmospheric conditions, it is after all a one way chemical reaction. They think that this gives them the right to ignore all other evidence and deliberately side step legitimate warranty claims.
[Galaxy S II General] MistahBungle:
Go to the consumer protection organisation in the UK. Start a website bad mouthing Samsung; use whatever means you need to in order to get the message out there.
[Galaxy S II General] theunderling:
I dont understand how the "local samsung repair centre" guy didnt just fit a new usb board.

Its no skin off their noses,and youd think theyd have a usb board for sg2 in stock.

My local samsung place would be carphone warehouse.Whether they have to get authorization from samsung to repair phones is what I dont know,but I dont see the point in a company putting themselves forward as a samsung service centre and they dont repair the actual phones.

Is the wlan part of the mb.Seems like samsung only entertain complete donkeys that brick their phones.

Ive got a proper usb board spare if you need it.
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
See the catch is, if a part is flagged by control as "Not supposed to have been replaced", this "Guy" might get in trouble. So it's not necessarily the guy you should complain about, but more policies and procedures from Samsung for these service centers and how they scare employees into not being objective by imposing strong sanctions to them if they don't do the job right.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Thanks for the offer theunderling. Very kind! (And yes, the WLAN is on the MB, on the screen side, midway along the thin strip on the right. The Liquid Sensor on the SGS2 is located inside the rear housing in the compartment that mates up with the Micro USB port. It is effectively open to the elements all the time and is surrounded by a foam gasket above it).

Today I took the phone back to the Independent Samsung Authorised Repair Centre locally to me, as I trust them. They stripped the phone down and confirmed that the WLAN in their opinion, was not 'burned' as the Official Samsung Repair Centre engineer had claimed after their second inspection. They found the following instead:

'With regards to the Burn mark on the WLAN Chip it appears that this isn’t a burn mark it looks like it is a spot which has been placed on the chip via a Red Marker type pen.' (very interesting!)

They also confirmed that there was absolutely no water damage to the phone and that the sensor's slight pink tinge was attributed to 'general day to day use'.

After yet another very frustrating and fruitless conversation with another service agent, I eventually go them to acknowledge that they should read the report contradicting their engineer's findings. At first they simply kept on stating that there was no more they could do, even though I had evidence supporting completely different findings from their engineer. I have now written yet another letter to Samsung UK customer service forwarding these findings, requesting they contact me & resolve this issue immediately.

Terrible business sense, trying to weasel out of honouring a warranty on a faulty phone that will cost them a life time of lost purchases from me & my family and friends. I have no doubt that this situation has the legs to run & run. Now in week 4...
[Galaxy S II General] neur0tek:
Figure out whom the VP for Customer Support is and send them a letter detailing the events, as you have here, and make them aware of your frustration. Sounds like your trapped in a poor policy vortex and they're just trying to save a buck, some one a little higher-up should have the foresight to see the path of least resistance and good CS is to resolve your issue.
[Galaxy S II General] Simonetti2011:
Let me be the bearer of bad news for you:

Samsung simply has no means of executing the warranty, because they no longer have any replacement parts in stock.

This goes not only for Samsung UK, but for all branches all around the world. It has been a very, VERY bad corporate decision, and most Samsung devices (specially the best selling ones, like the GS2) that have been out of production for over 6 months have no replacement parts in stock anywhere.

That is why they come up with lame excuses: they are trying to cover their own asses, they're trying to cover their miscalculations.

Reports similar to yours are happening everywhere. Honestly, I don't think Samsung gives a rats ass about us customers.

It's been suggested that you turn this into a bad PR case for Samsung: tell blogs, create a website, harass them so much they will have no other choice other than replace your phone.

When Apple fanboys hear about this, they not only will have a bang out of it, but they'll spread the word, just to make it look bad for Samsung... I believe they are some sort of ally for you.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
I think you're right, the problem being that Samsung's Customer Service Centre representatives refuse to give me any channel to escalate this embarrassing situation to a higher level - instead they filter my feed back through an 'obfuscation filter' and selectively pick & choose who and what they listen to. I had to mention the term 'legal action' and point out that if they have marked my chip with a red marker pen, and then claimed that this was a burn, that this would be fraudulent behaviour, just to get them to even bother listening. It's just plain wrong.

I will wait for this next official response from Samsung and act accordingly. In the mean time I will try and discover who is responsible for Customer Support for Samsung UK.
[Galaxy S II General] mckeowngoo:
Bollocks.

Where is your proof?

****Non of this is of any importance. Just chill the f**k out and relax****
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Hmm, thanks for the contribution & insight. That is very interesting to read & disturbing. I have a growing list of all the actions I have taken and the events that have occurred in this saga, but throughout the last 4 weeks I am yet to be contacted by Samsung with the intention of resolving the issue. I always have to call them, email them, write to them....and I am very unhappy with their handling of this situation. I don't think that i'm over-reacting or expecting any more from Samsung than I am due. I am not backing away from this and will not stop until Samsung have resolved this.

Palming in warranty phone faults off on to customers or insurance companies with dubious claims is just not going to fly with me.

I have bought a domain name to publicise this case (and others?) as much as possible if it is not resolved. It's a good domain name too, surprised Samsung didn't buy it to stop other people using it!
[Galaxy S II General] Simonetti2011:
I have some contacts inside the Brazilian branch of Samsung, whose names I can't - obviously - mention.
[Galaxy S II General] mckeowngoo:
I'm sorry but I just don't believe that Samsung, who manufacture and purchase a lot of components from other companies, have ran out of spare parts for their line of mobile phones, especially when there is titanium version of the S2 due to be unveiled in the US in the next few days.

****Non of this is of any importance. Just chill the f**k out and relax****
[Galaxy S II General] anubius:
Wow that is a shocking story. Now I actually think that I am lucky my phone got repaired twice without a problem (Germany). I hope you will get this resolved.
[Galaxy S II General] theunderling:
Maybe get the councils trading standards officer involved for the area their service centre is located(cant remenber if its newcastle).

Or you could say youll pay for a repair and sue them for a mb and usb board via small claims court.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Maybe I'm being naive here, but with the evidence I have presented and with the bizarre 'Red Pen Event' (!), I am rather hopeful that a Samsung representative will intervene at some stage and make this all go away, apologise and we all move on. I will await some form of official reply to the latest engineer's report I have emailed to them to hear their side of this. But explaining that red pen 'burn' away, that will be difficult, if not impossible!
[Galaxy S II General] lambstone:
Write to famous websites seeing if they are willing to publish your article on their website. Preferably pro-apple websites, BGR etc. It will provoke a response from Samsung into doing something right.

I have some contacts with contacts within the US Airforce that told them that they have captured downed UFOs and are studying the technology for future exploitation. For obvious reasons, I can't name them.

@OP: Just write a polite letter detailing your frustration to someone higher up in the CS hierachy and hope that they listen. If that fails, I guess what ever action you decide to take will always put you the small consumer at a disadvantage. Buy your next phone from another company.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
That's a good idea, they might well be interested. I'd still very much like Samsung to do the right thing, so i'll keep the discussion going as long as there is some hint of headway. If I end up hitting an impassible wall, then i'll start using the PR route.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Yes, I have already written to them explaining the situation and my extreme annoyance at being pushed around from pillar to post over this. As you suggest, It would be best to send a letter to someone higher up the food chain, Samsung CS agents don't offer anyone higher than them to speak to or contact. The letters written to the CS department (uk.help@samsung.com) seem to take many days to be read and even more days to get a response...it's like trying to have a debate via carrier pigeon.

I bought a Motorola Razr i when the SGS2 packed up. Absolutely love it. Faster that the GS2, smaller dimensions but the same size screen with slightly higher resolution, and the battery last for 24hrs of hard use and over 40+ hrs of moderate use and a lot longer with light use. Even though it's a single core phone, it's as fast as any multi-core phone that i've ever used. The only apps that I have found that are not compatible with the Intel chip are Shazam and the BBC media player - the other 140 all work. A cracking little phone.
[Galaxy S II General] dk206:
Wow....

All those trips I've beem to the Samsung service centre (london -angel) never had any issues

Last time I went in was wen I totally hardbricked my gs2 and they changed the whole motherboard for me. I complained about battery performance as well and they changed that too. This was September 2012. My phone was purchased in May 2010. So actually it was ovee the 2year warranty and they didn't say anything.

I've been there for the past 3.5years. Around 5 times with my Galaxy S (similar hardbricked and softbricked) and 1 time with my Sisters white Galaxy S (wobbly usb port- which made charging almost impossible which they swapped out and accidently placed a 16gb motherboard with, luckily)

and around 6 times with the current Galaxy S II.

I've had no issues with these guys whatsoever. Apart from the fact that sometimes they say they can't repair it at the centre and have shipped it somewhere else-which was usually the case, having to swap the motherboard around) which took over 2 weeks!

Best customer servive for me.

You must have been very unlucky :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
So, Samsung UK fixed your phone(s) free of charge, OUTSIDE of the warranty, even when you bricked them? AND they gave you a new battery because you weren't happy with the performance of your 2+ year old battery?!

Whilst I'm happy that you have received such exemplary service (out of warranty), your comment has not helped lower my blood pressure! :mad:
[Galaxy S II General] kreoXDA:
This is nothing. I once took my GS2 straight from "Will It Blend" filming to a Samsung Service Center. My GS2 was out of warranty, so I told them it was a GS3 just acquired and accidentally dropped into an insinkerator, with no water running. Luckily they were able to locate the moisture sensor in the pile of dust, and the sensor did not show water damage. Long story short, I got a new GS3...

Joking of course. :)

Sorry to hear this, you should keep trying, I bet it all depends on the CS rep you run into.
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
At least that made me smile :)

Very true, it really seems to hinge on the attitude of the CS person you get or the mood of the CS engineer on the day. Hardly a consistent corporate line! I've had some progress - I have been contacted by Head Office SCS today and am now awaiting a call back to hopefully resolve this. It looks like it's going to be going back in for a 5th inspection by engineers...
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Progress!

Issue seemingly resolved.

I was called back by someone from Head Office CS and they are going to investigate the 'Red Ink Spot' and what the cause of the failure was & why it has taken 4 weeks and 4 inspections, several phone calls and letters to get this sorted. (Not to mention the insistent and incorrect assertion that it was damaged by liquid, when it was not).

They will send me a new GS2 (not necessarily the white one I have now) & take the faulty one back for inspection. In other words, they will honour the warranty. There was no offer or even mention, of any compensation for my time, costs or trouble caused. I must admit that I was disappointed by this, I was expecting even a token offer, in way of acknowledging the hassle they have caused, least of all for apparently deliberately trying to falsify facts to their benefit and my loss.

They have said that they will keep me updated as to the outcome of their investigation into this matter, so I may request a redress of this outcome at a later date.

I sincerely hope that other customers don't have to go through my ordeal in getting a warranty claim fulfilled with Samsung. My advice to you, if you have had a phone declared 'liquid damaged by customer' even though you are 100% sure that it isn't; take it to an independent authorised dealer and actually SEE the alleged damage first hand before giving up. And whatever you do, don't let them send your phone to the A-novo Samsung Service Centre!
[Galaxy S II General] bobdoblo:
Sorry to hear of your trouble, i had similar story with my Samsung tv, i bought for £1050 and a couple of weeks after the 1year warranty was up it wouldn't turn on.

When i rang they refused to repair it so next day i rang up to take out insurance, £7 per month, waited 3 days and rang in for repair.

10 days later i got my tv back working then promptly got on the phone to cancel my insurance:D

How much did it cost you to get the engineers reports because you can claim the money for them from Samsung you know!

Salesales *NeatROM 3.5* - The Best!
[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
Nicely played on the TV insurance bait & switch!

Amazingly, the independent Samsung Authorised repair shop near me (The Repair Station) did the two strip downs and issued the two signed reports completely free of charge. I was assuming that they would get some sort of payment from Samsung for the work, but after asking the manager (Dean) he explained that they don't get a penny and they were doing it for me knowing that I would come back to them with any future issues with my gadgets. Now that's customer service. Samsung should take a leaf out of their book.

It has cost me something like £30 in phone calls though. And if I billed my wasted time out by the hour, a few hundred quid. :(

[Galaxy S II General] chronicle:
I have just bought a Razr i to replace the SGS2 and there's no looking back. It's the perfect phone for me, which surprised me since I wouldn't have normally thought about buying a Motorola, but it really is a fantastically fast, well built phone with the longest battery life of any phone I've used. I have a rooted Nexus 7 which fills the gap to the laptop & desktop.

The Note 2 is a great mini phablet and if I worked in an office & had to commute every day then it would be at the top of the list. I work outdoors often away from a 3G signal & appreciate a compact & robust handset with a very long lasting battery (or replaceable) & a Micro SD slot is a must. Cloud storage is okay for non-vital backups but useless for relying upon as a primary access point for your data, such is the flaky nature of the UK network's data coverage & speeds.

The Nexus 4 has no expandable storage, battery's pretty good but it has to power a big old screen so won't be too good & it looks rather delicate, being sandwiched in glass. But for the rest of the specs at that price, it's an industry game changer.

I'll probably stick with the Razr i & keep the SGS2 as a backup with the 3 spare batteries & cases I already own. With a 64GB Micro SD card in it, it'll prove very useful. :)
