[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mira_ishak:
i have a galaxy tab 2, 10.1, running android 4. i have disabled "predictive text" since i consider it annoing.

is there a spell checking to activate in the settings, without predictive text?

i would rather have instructions on how to activate it (if it slready exists) rather than download a program. if it is not built in, kindly recommend a program, preferrably, that runs while i am writing in the mail ot in the note, and not make me write in teh program iteself, then copy and paste.thanks,
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu_cad:
I've always used custom roms on my galaxy. I was even using in dual-boot, a Jelly Bean Revolt and other stock. I was testing a new stock, and flashed it with Odin Mobile. I ended up losing custom. Since then, I can no longer flashing custom roms, even having problems flashing a new kernel. I use the CWM, do the wipes and flash the* rom, but after the reboot, it starts a boot loop with the galaxy s2 logo. The phone is inoperable. At least the download mode works, and I ended up going back to stock a few times. I even tried and flash another custom roms, but the same problem happens.

Anyone know how to help??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Flash a 3-parted stock firmware and activae "re-partition" in Odin.

After this flash a rooted kernel .tar (cf-root, speedmod, etc.) via Odin.

Now start flashing again.

Hope this works.

CHEERS ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu_cad:
I've read about emmc brick. And this problem started after using a LQ6 4.0.4 stock rom.

I even used the "emmc brick check", and it shows "YES. Insane chip".

I flashed now a 2.3.6 stock rom. But i haven't tried to flash another custom rom yet.

Should i proceed as you say???

And sorry for my noobness, but what is a 3 parted stock rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
it contains a .pit file for re-partition and 2 other files,but u should be carefull in using the .pit file though, since it could potentially hardbrick ur device ma8:)

instead try updating ur device from GB 2.3.6 to a stock v4.0.3(do not flash any 4.0.4 ICS firmware) ICS firmware either thro 'KIES' or 'ODIN', then root ur phone and try installing a custom ICS rom of ur choice and see:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu_cad:
I'll try what you're saying.

I'm updating to a 4.0.3 through odin. After root, can i install directly a Jelly bean rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
after root first install a custom kernel either siyah or dorimanx latest and then try installing a JB rom compatible with them and see:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu_cad:
I've already updated to 4.0.3

If i'm flashing Jelly Bam Rom for an example, do i need to install these kernel before, since the rom already has it in the AROMA installer???

And should do the wipes before it/??

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
yes it will be there in Aroma but for a perfect trouble free install i suggested the same, rest is ur call ma8, fell free todo so the way it looks good for u;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu_cad:
Thanks.

It only worked with with previous instalation of dorinmax kernel. So i had to use Revolt Jelly Bean Rom.

When i tried to flash Jelly Bam Rom, got into galaxy s2 loop, after reboot.

At least, i've got one custom rom.

Now it's so much more difficult to install a rom on my phone. Only because i used that 4.0.4.

There's no way back, right?

My warranty ends in November 30th.

:/
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
That's why I said to completely go back on a stock firmware with Odin.

But 3 parted (and for sure with .pit-file then, forgot to say this) and check repartition.

But u have to choose... A phone which turns screen on an just looping or a chance from 80% to 20% for getting phone working again or bricking it.

I personally hadn't any prob til now, but only went back 4-5 times ins 2-3 years (also did the same with SGS before SGSII) :D

So u got my answer u have to choose.

Anyway u can send it back because warranty and if they fix it, it's fine... If not u can try it by urself anyway ;)

CHEERS

Send from my SGSII-i9100, running RootBox nightly with Dorimanx Kernel.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleaor:
Hello.

i am using my galaxy tab lately, but noticed it had unbelivably slow performance in games like modern combat 3, asphalt 7, and even Sonic 4 Episode 2 and BIT TRIP BEAT, and shown many apps in the playstore as being incompatible. after testing lots of roms, i decided to put a jellybean 4.1.2 rom on it and overclock. although more apps are shown as compatible with it, the device still performs poorly in a lot of 2d and 3d games. tried to live with it, but when i saw that the official (physical) samsung keyboard that i got it with it (connects through charging port) which was recognised by stock hc and ics is now recognised by it as a timer (wtf), i decided i must find a better rom. been looking for weeks by now. i will appreciate any suggestion from you to a fast performing, battery efficient and highly compatible rom and kernel combination that i could use on my device that you have tested and can recommend.

Thank you, E.

It could be some of the games you are playing, not all developers try hard. Nfs most wanted has amazing graphics and plays great, I have had other games with Nintendo graphics that don't run smooth.

I spoke to a rep the other day regarding Jelly Bean. Long Story short he said it is rolling out to their systems now (computer support info) so we should have it very very VERY soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
Your title gives the impression that it'll be JB

Edit : you edited your post.

:cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
actually, it implies the opposite. his post in sort of confusing though.

hopefully a small update is making the phone ready for the update. anyone whos waited before trying jb will be happy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] coldhardtruth:
First mistake is assuming the reps have a clue about what they are talking about. They are lucky to dress themselves for work every morning. If I had a nickel for every time a rep told me an update is coming, I'd be a thousandaire.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eman3316@optonline.net:
I think when he says a small update he is describing his post as a small update to here. No the actually Verizon update.

Of course the next Verizon update will be JB. They do not need to make our phone ready for JB, it is ready and the leak we have also says it is pretty ready to go.....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Itzvik:
It seems more of a marketing strategy because t mobile released theirs after the note 2 was released.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Terry_blair:
Verizon lies to there customers. When I bought the galaxy nexus I had 2 weeks to return the device. Signal was terrible but, loved the phone otherwise. I contaced them and they said and update when be comming out that would fix the problem but it would be after the 2 weeks of me being able to return the phone....no update acctually for several months then I was stuck with the useless phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Waffles92:
Well that depends, what's their definition of "soon".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
Same kind of thing happened to me. I wasn't getting an OTA even though one had come out. I went back to the store to exchange and he was like "it takes a while to get to everybody" so I went home and called Verizon and he advised me to go back and demand replacement.

I went back and demanded a new phone and he was like "fine I'll give you a new phone but the new one is going to do the same thing."

Well, he gives me a new phone, same sim card, and what do you know... first thing to pop up on the screen???

UPDATE AVAILABLE!

I laughed to his face and told him I would never be doing business with his store again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Did you manually check for an update not long before you got the new phone?

From recent discussion, it seems there is a counter being kept for each account that notes when the last query for an OTA was made and it does not allow for a new check after a certain timeframe (seems anywhere from 2-4 weeks) after the most recent manual pull attempt. If your phone is not yet in the active queue for an active OTA push, the prior attempt will naturally return no new updates . . . but subsequent checks won't actually determine if you are in the OTA queue or not until the timeout period, even if your account was placed into the OTA queue by that time. My understanding is that this helps them balance load of the OTA downloads to some extent. Eventually, the OTA will be pushed to your phone, regardless of manual check attempts. It takes patience to wait.

However, this is bound to your account info, so changing a SIM card in the phone can make it seem as if the phone and/or SIM was the problem, because your prior, manual attempt was made when you were not yet in the active OTA queue, subsequent manual checks will not actually perform a check for the OTA for a period of time since the prior manual check - even if you were recently added into the active queue, and then a new SIM essentially resets the counter in your account and performs a true check for the OTA: if you were placed into the queue while unable to actually perform a check just before the new SIM, the OTA will now download and look like a miracle.

So, it does take patience. I experience the above symptoms exactly as described for the prior OTA and merely waited for the OTA to be pushed onto my phone - they gave me a timeframe for that and they were correct.

- ooofest
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
Well I had been manually checking for like a week, however, I wasn't receiving an update that had been out for months. The phone was 2 updates behind!

The new phone with my same SIM updated instantly after it was set up. I didn't even have to manually check. And then it updated again. So I honestly believe there was something wrong with the phone. Very strange to not get an update that had been out for months, you know?

I Always hated how you had to be conneceted to the internet to use tiny tower. This found out that this method works on all device and is simple.

HOW TO PLAY TINY TOWER OFFLINE

step 1

-turn on wifi

step 2

-turn on tiny tower and let it load the game

step 3

-(quickly) hit home button and turn off wifi and go back to the app.

bam, done. now you can play it.

NOTICE

-if you have a task killer on, make tiny tower be ignored or else you will have to do this again.

-if you have cyanogenmod developers options on, then turn off the "kill tasks as soon as user leaves them" option.

-check in on the game every 30 minutes or so to make sure it is running fine.

Any questions go to my personal blog: argue4android.blogspot.com

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] marcustaz:
I feel for you the exact way mine broke was falling out of my dress pocket as I reached over in my car. It fell out hit my bottom door jam which broke the fall and it hit the ground maybe 10 inches off and broke! On top of that I ordered the glass and I did not heat it enough when removing and destroyed the digitizer!!! So a very expensive lesson indeed.

Now I did not start this to advertise but I have since replaced over a dozen pieces of glass for friends family and ones I have advertised here locally. I have become very proficient at doing it and I can point you to this thread for help before you try. I would say DO NOT try it until you read that thread through.. It is a bunch of pages so try and pay attention to the posts of advise and help. Quick points. Lots of heat but keep it moving! Use plastic razor blades lest you scratch your digitizer. Heat wedge, heat wedge... Be careful not to damage the bottom ribbon cable or touch screen soft buttons and finally start from the TOP!! NEVER EVER start from the bottom... Get some 2mm 3M double sided tape as well.

Please try to understand the fact that it is nearly impossible to develop ICS for stock kernel. The best you can get is an extremely laggy ROM which is just a proof of concept where nothing works the way it should. devstaff tried but quit and so did troufiniou.
