[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TNTRMSKD:
Same issue here. Got a replacement cover from Samsung coming. If it doesn't fix the issue Sprint agreed to replace my phone. I have had mine since release day but filed a formal exchange request before the 14 day period was over explaining my situation and Samsung's proposed resolution. I suggest anyone nearing their 14 day expiration to consider doing the same. I want to avoid a replacement if possible because I already set up everything exactly the way I want it, but if the new cover does nothing the phone is going back. FYI, tried a few local Sprint stores and nobody had a phone in stock to let me test the cover swap. Went to Best Buy and although they had none left the guy said he has seen this issue in a lot of the Note 2s already. He even said the 1st gen Notes suffered from a similar manufacturing defect.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jiffy1080:
I had this issue on the opposite side. It ended up being the hook/snap. I used my car key to push down the edges around the hook and boom it works like it should. I'm not sure it that will fix everyone's but it worked for me. Also the sprint store wouldn't need a regular cover. The flip cover replaces the back so it should work as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennykravitz2004:
Yes. PITA too.

Think QA from Sprint and/or Samsung belongs to or reads XDA?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrnamster:
I have this issue too. The hook seems to have cracked..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lkctd8:
Same thing here since day one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] madsquabbles:
i don't have the problem since i bought the samsung cover, but i believe the old touch pro 2 had that problem. to fix it we had to put a folded up piece odf paper under the case over the battery. it helped the cover keep its shape. the flexjng caused the cover to pop off. maybe it'll work for this phone too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cubiche:
are you getting the cover under warranty or did you buy it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TNTRMSKD:
Warranty. They're sending me a new cover free of charge and a return UPS label to give them back my old one (wonder what they're gonna do with it, lol).

I've never had that issue on my TP2, but if I recall correctly the cover on that phone wasn't nearly as flimsy and soft as the one on the Note2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] supersonic64126:
Problem SOLVED!

Guys...the back cover is very poorly designed. When I picked up my GN2 on release day at the sprint store, the girl handed me the demo model so I could see it. I noticied immediately that the back cover was loose by the volume keys. Pulled it off, saw broken hook immediately. I then insisted that I would put the back cover on myself on mine when they took it out of the box, and I never had that issue again. Unlike the GS3 which I upgraded from, which had snaps all around, this one has snaps, and also tabs on the bottom and a hook by the volume keys, which means if you put it on the same way as an S3, YOU WILL BREAK THE HOOKS/TABS! You can't just push it on. Not the users fault, as Samsung made this both extremely difficult to do, and provided no clear instructions on installation/removal. I use multiple batteries and therefore remove it about once per day, and I've had the phone since release day. Unfortunately, without redesigning the actual phone housing itself, I fear it will be impossible for Samsung to fix this by just redesigning the cover. If yours isn't broken yet, just follow my video on proper installation and removal of the back cover. If yours already broke, grab an in-warranty replacement from Samsung and follow my instructions from now on, otherwise this will keep happening. Below is a link to a quick how-to video I made.

I was backing up files and now the sd card is permanently "write protected." I cant format and cant write to it but the data is still there. There is no lock switch on a micro SD card so that isnt it. Is there a way to get the card unlocked?

Have you tried placing it in a Full Size Adapter with the slide Lock on the side ? Then trying to format it. There is an Article HERE that better illustrates what I mean.

i have this game working on my Galaxy s 4g with 4.0.4 and it works.

i cant get this game to work on my TF101. I download it from the market and once i open and accept the agreement and it freezes right there.

i have CM10 on it right now. but i downgraded to honeycomb stock w/ root, i tried a couple ICS Roms, Revolver included. they all do the same thing. any ideas?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Usagi_chan:
I'm rather lost. I was using an old Motorola E815 clamshell which finally died. I got a Razr M now. I was told it is an international phone and I thought that meant that it would work on any network, at least overseas. However I now suspect it is tied to Verizon and I am not sure if that can be over-ridden somehow. I have heard of unlocking, rooting and flashing ROM. I have been trying to find out is one or more of those processes will make this phone universal. I suspect that this phone cannot be unlocked. It is the plain vanilla version sold in the US and is not the Developer edition.

What do I want to do with it? I am not that pleased with Verizon and I'm considering Straight Talk. I'm paying about $70 per month now, getting 200 minutes talk, 2 GB of data and I have to pay $.20 additional for each text message. Straight Talk is $45 per month and is unlimited talk, text and data. It's obviously a far better deal.

Verizon says it is an international phone. It is capable of CDMA as well as several GSM bands. Can this phone be used on Straight Talk? Can it be used In foreign countries?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onebornoflight:
According to phonearena and gsmarena the answer is a convoluted yes to both.- the phone can be used overseas and on worldwide gsm networks, but only through verizon roaming. There is a version of Straight Talk that I believe uses the same towers as Verizon and the same CDMA bands... but it will take someone more knowledgable about CDMA than me to cover that one (GSM for years here). Hopefully I did help somewhat though.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
I tried something tonight and I think discovered a great way to regain internal storage. I had about 1gb left internally and I couldn't figure our what was taking up so much data because it didnt seem like even my largest apps added up to what I was using. The steps reclaimed 7.5gb of space. Thats a lot of "unknown" data if you ask me.

WARNING: THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING ON YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE. Make sure photos, music, downloads, etc. are backed up elsewhere first. (I.e. I had to go into this knowing I would lose all of my Spotify music.)

1) Make a titanium backup of everything just in case something goes wrong with step 2.

2) Reboot into recovery and make a nandroid backup that you SAVE TO EXTERNAL SD Card.

3) Wipe data. I know on TWRP it will show a red triangle and remind you you don't really have to do this. Go forth boldly knowing you have a nandroid.

4) restore your nandroid.

5) reboot and see how much more internal data you have now (share here if it worked.

If anyone smarter than me at android (who are many) and can offer additional input on this, please feel obliged. I can honestly say this worked for me and my phone works just perfectly (and looks thinner doing it ;) )
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
I also apologize if this is the oldest trick in the book and I have only just discovered it. But, I know I'm no the only one still figuring out android.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
I think that wipe removes everything from your internal SD card.

And I could be wrong, but I don't think restoring a nandroid will restore EVERYTHING that was on your SD card. Like pictures, music, etc.

So I'd probably suggest backing up the entire SD card contents as well.

Or another option is to use SD Maid to wipe all your old, unused cache/etc. It's safer and won't remove anything you would have wanted to keep.

Here is the "Pro" version unlocker. I bought it and like it a lot for cleaning up ROM's of old junk.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sgp77:
Dumb question: you need to save your nandroid to your EXTERNAL SD card for this to work right? ;) Otherwise it will wipe your nandroid too?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
Most definitely. I'll add that to original post.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
I've used SD Maid (Pro) and it does give some "relief" to storage. However, I've still not achieved nearly the results I have with this method. Also, you have to select each cleaning method one at a time and it can take a while to process results. It's definitely a great option for folks afraid to take this plunge :)

Thank you for pointing out about the pics and storage. I'll add a warning to rhe OP. I keep all that stuff on my external card (as most probably do), so I didn't think about it. The Downloads folder is something people might want to back up as well.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] whoamanwtf:
So just so you know, what you have done here is delete all of your data. Titanium backup only backs up the actual APK and installer data. Any larger games like ones from gameloft and allot of others will now need to download their resources again so once you play those games the space will be taken up again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] natefish:
That's a valid point, to an extent. I did not have any games like that installed when I did this and went from 1gb free to 8.5. I gave up playing games like that on my phone because 1) I have an iPad and 2) 16gb is not enough room for that stuff. There is an app (think it's called GL to SD) that will put the extra data those games download onto your external sd card. The biggest thing I lost is Spotify, but I don't mind resyncing that app if it means I just made a heck of a lot more room for more music.

I'm not a developer and I'm not an expert at Android by any means. I do know, however, that my phone runs perfectly fine after this experiment. I think all OS's do this memory cluttering to an extent. I know Windows does and I remember my iPhone doing it as well. I used to restore once in a while just for this reason. So, I don't pretend to know all the reasons, but I can speak from multiple experiences.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jcbofkc:
The paid version of Titanium is very powerful. There are settings you can adjust. An odd game I enjoy is paradise Island. I have moved it from an HD2 to a pos gb G2x and on to the GS3. You need a large sdsc card.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] civicvx94:
Just wanted to confirm that I had the same issue and used a similar process to regain my internal storage. In my case, I had deleted a large amount of files (~7gb's) and never gained the space back in available internal storage.. So I went into recovery (I'm using TWRP) and wiped internal storage, system, data, cache.. Then just installed a fresh rom (stored on my ext sd), bingo, everything seems to be perfect again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kellz204:
+1 for titanium pro, this helps me keep my storage in check
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
Or, you download Disk Usage from the app store, run it and delete the largest folders which are typically TWRP or CWM backups....thus saving all of your other data.

And everyone that does this will gain back all of their storage, because they will be completely wiping their internal storage.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] imonandroid:
I think I figured out one of the problems

Facebook and google both "sync" their galleries with my phone. thus putting upto 9 gigs of pictures onto my internal storage, without anyway of removing them (so it seems???) I can't disable them in the gallery, and I can't find their physical existence in "my files"

Is there anyway to remove them if they've accidentally synced??

although currently it's too late as I just did a wipe to my phone, deselecting those options I figured I would pose the question and hopefully give someone some food for thought.

EDIT: I also assume this is the same with any other account based app that syncs large file directories. (maybe twitter?)

Like said above gotta use the one click.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Robotechvfx:
I had just unrooted my android in order to solve storage memory issue, because i didn´t rooted my Android using clockwork mod, I simply used a Rar that I place in the SD card called RootGalaxyGio that granted me the root the easy way. I unrooted my mobile yesterday and wiped data/ restore factory settings. The problem that I encountered was that I lost wi fy connectivity om my Android. Tried everything. So I decide to flash it via Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.42. I download the GIO_v1.0.ops and the "one package" S5660XXKTK_S5660TCLKT1_TCL_vodafone.

Odin went on for 30 minutes to try to install the firmware and it wasn´t budging, so in my despair and ignorance I unplugged it. My Gio doesn´t start, shows an icon simbolizing a broken connection between the computer and the android, yet the download mode still functions. I don´t know what went wrong I follow all the steps in the tutorial I read. I´ve tried 4 times to flash it with odin and a first problem that occured in the first place repeats it self.

Can anyone help me sort this trouble out or will I have to try my luck with samsung?

Flashing gio with odin should take only 5 minutes? have you taken out sd card and your sim card before flashing? did you get any message like <Added!!> after you connected your phone to pc while in download mode? if you still can access download mode then you still got chance and be sure you got drivers installed to pc :P

First of all, sorry if I put this topic somewhere it shouldn't be. :)

When I turn my HTC Desire C while typing some text into landscape mode, the keyboard disappears. There is only white rectangle, same as the one on the top, where is your actual written text shown. When you tap on the rectangle, you can see the same effect like when typing on a normal working keyboard, but you just can't see the buttons.
