[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnpluggedJack:
Phone Charging when Not Plugged In - The Definitive Answer

Samsung Galaxy Note

I've had same problem as reported by many others with phone displaying charge icon when not plugged in. I've tried all the recommended solutions. Here's what I've found:

1. Not related to JellyBean update (it happened just after I updated but turns out to be coincidence)

2. Factory reset or flashing doesn't help (it's a hardware problem)

3. Clean out the USB port (there's all kinds of fluff, dirt, lost keys, foreign coins etc in there!) - don't use soapy water for this...

4. Bend the pins (gently) so that they are located in the centre of the port.

In my case it's the charging cradle I was using that was damaging the port. I'm using a flip-case on my phone which means the phone doesn't fit in the cradle properly and I was having to force it to sit on the connector. The pins had become bent and were shorting out against the edge of the port.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p51d007:
Replacing the port is painless, if you have any mechanical aptitude. Numerous youtube videos show how to change it.

Takes about 15 minutes. Just make sure you get the correct port. If you get the wrong one, you're signal will degrade

considerably
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aftabbabar:
I had the same problem and I have managed to solve the problem by replacing the usb port. I bought the usb port from ebay but you must open up your note first to see which revision of usb port board you have inside the phone. I think it makes a difference so the revision number has to match with the old port.

Cleaning the port and straightening the pins helped for a few months but then the problem came back again. changing the old port for a new one solved the problem. I think their usb ports in galaxy phones are crap.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemadina:
Hello everyone,

I have had an issue with my nexus 7 2 days ago and couldn't figure out a way to fix it yet, so I need your help

So basically I have been flashing ROMs on my nexus 7 and everything was great no issues at all, til I accedintaly was in Recovery mode and fomatted sd and system (GOD that was stupid), so after doing so all my ROMs saved on my sd card were deleted so I am not able to flash ROMs anymore. The worest part is that even my preloaded PARANOID ANDROID Rom hasn't been able to boot up my device so it's stuck on Google boot logo.

Hence, I assume if there is a way to push ROMs while the tablet is in Recovery mode that would allow me to flash them again and the problem is sloved. However, I don't know if I am able to do that, I have tried nexus 7 toolkit and Android commander but they require USB debugging to be ON (which i am not sure if it was since last time I had this problem), and they both require the tablet to be tured on I belive in order for them to do thier magic ?? correct me if I am wrong...

Unfortuantely I didn't do Nanadroid backup :(

I am not able to take the tablet to Google obviousely cause i am rooted so you guys are my only hope

Thanks in advance and really appreiate it if i cab get a fast response.

Just flash the factory image from fastboot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cakessi:
I use the Nexus 7 Toolkit v3.2.0 by mskip. It is amazing. It's in the development thread. You don't need adb to flash the original image. You only need to get into fastboot mode.--->

Turn off n7. Hold both volume up and down and the power button until you get into the bootloader. Then plug your n7 into USB and then launch the toolkit. Make sure your device is recognized at the top in fastboot mode. You are ready to restore the factory image.

I havent heard anything for about a month for swift key flow. Anyone know what's going on?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] babydo:
Check vip.swiftkey.net for future reference.

You're one of the many people who are also complaining about how Swiftkey gave us a teaser, and haven't followed up yet. To answer your question, the devs are still working on a beta, and keep saying it'll arrive in "the upcoming weeks." At this rate, I'd be surprised if beta was released before christmas, but let's hope I'm wrong :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rbails82:
This is gonna be awesome.. I love swiftkey but use swype more often.. swiftkey flow will be the perfect combination!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
It hasn't been released yet. Its just "coming soon"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
From a marketing standpoint, they definitely have let a little too much time elapse from their teaser to release.

Excited to play with it though. I love the swiping features of the 4.2 keyboard but can't stand the typing side of it (punctuation and longpress take far too long), so I am currently switching back and forth between the two.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nohbdyshero:
I think they should have teased then released within about a week of each other....they jumped the gun a tad I believe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HelenB:
flow

Flow should come out at least with the beta version soon because the 4.2 android keyboard now has swipe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
wonder if the 4.2 keyboard made them tweak some things?

i had no idea itd have swype input

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admiez:
It seems very slow once you tap an app to see its details, or hit back to get out of it. Many times you can even see the transition animation pause in the middle. Scrolling and browsing is fine. I come from using an Atrix running CM10, and while the N4 is way faster in everything else, the play store shows no improvement whatsoever. Is it just me :confused: or shouldn't Google do a better job optimizing this app, given how frequently it is used.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plotinus:
Hello everyone, I've had a question for the past months/years since i first rooted clockwork'ed my galaxy x10 mini pro... i've never backed up my custom rom, the one the phone comes with... with my past device a Samsung galaxy S II I always wanted to go back to the rom it came with. but I never backed up, and i could find it in sammobile. I live in Costa Rica so the firmwares are never posted anywhere. at least not the way the show up when I dial *#1234#. and the only way that I have found to back up is with CWM. and that means modifying the kernel....

Now I have a Galaxy note 2. I bought it yesterday 22-Nov. :D

so my question is

is there a way to back up the rom as it is right now? as it comes in the box with stock kernel and everything, UN-rooted.? I don't how, via ABD of something (I have some expierence with adb, not alot to be honest)? I've played a lot with my past phones but with this one I would like to be able to come back to ''stock like-out of the box'' way if something goes wrong. Is there a way to make a backup to be flashed with odin?? :cowboy:

and if there is a way would someone be kind enough to send me a link or guide me through it! I would highly appreciate it! :victory:

I've google it with no avail. all I found out was with adb for sony ericsson smartphones with fastboot (Afaik samsung does not have fastboot ((correct me if I'm wrong)))

+INFO

when I type *#1234# i get this:

AP: N7100UBALJ1

Hello every1,

I have an i9000 with 4.1.1

3.0.42-00746-g6564605-dirty Devil3_1.3.1_Hellybean_cappy_CFS_BLN_CMC #524 Kernel version

i9000XXJVT Baseband version

that drives me nuts, because i have poor reception of wireless signal.

I`m not good at this, and i don`t want to mess it up, so i am at your mercy to fix it. I assume that whoever upgraded it to 4.1.1 *i recently bought it of Craigslist), did not put the correct modem in it (my carrier is AT&T prepaid).

Pretty please tell me what i can do to change my reception for the better.

Thanks a LOT

Posted this on another site but was not able to get help.

Let me start by saying that I am rooted but on stock rom.

I'll try and explain the best I can.

Yesterday I went to use Opera and noticed that it went to a white screen and never loaded Opera. Tried it about 5 times and the same thing nothing. Tried with wifi on and off. Used the stock browser and it works fine.

So I scrolled through my screens and noticed that my Engadget widget shows "data not available". i deleted the widget and added it back, again same message.

Went into settings and my Mobile Data is still checked. Data usage shows 45.95MB used so far. So I do not believe it hit a data limit and shut it off.

I have no idea what to try. Any help would be appreciated.

ST25i_6.1.1.B.1.10_UK 1262-0728

As in title, this is the official Sony firmware from SEUS/PC Companion downloaded today. SI 1262-0728 (UK Sim Free handset) - I know some people have been looking for ICS with this ID. Due to size of file I can only share as a torrent as it would take me over my sites bandwidth limit within a day easily. If anyone can provide a proper link please feel free to upload, but PM me so I can add the link to this post. File is a .ftf so you need to use the excellent flashtool to flash to your phone.

Torrent Link

Torrent (Please continue to seed)

This firmware is untouched from the download and as far as I can tell only has the standard Sony bloat such as music unlimited, etc so no French or Indian apps to un-install.

so is there another way in which i can get the stock ics firmware 6.1.1.b.1.10, specific to my country (SINGAPORE) with the SI 1261-4527? So i can flash it via flashtool.

XPERIA U (ST25i) USB Not Connecting to PC

Hello, i have a similar problem. I have a XPERIA U,unlocked bootloader, flashed with ICS MIUI Custom ROM.

It charges just fine, either via PC Data Cable or Normal Wall Charger.

The problem is that whenever i connect the phone to my PC, it just charges. Nothing more. Cannot flash it, Cannot put files on the storage, nothing.

The USB setting in the phone is set to: Ask on connection. I've also tried the "Mount SD" option with USB Debugging ON or OFF. Nothing seems to work. When i try to flash it via flashtool, it doesn't recognise it as a Download Mode phone (The LED goes Green and then Turns off). How screwed am I ?

Additionally, I heard there is a rattle in the phone? I read up on XDA on a poll thread but I think it's normal? What do you think? Is this phone better than the SGS3?

Thanks! I'd still like to hear a bit more from other people :3 By the way did you face any other issues with the n4? at all? hows the battery?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admiez:
I don't think you will be disappointed by this phone coming from an S2. Most of the "issues" have been blown out of proportion. The rattle being the best example.

Yellow tint?

The screen is on the warmer side, or may have its gamma off, it's not a yellow tint. You would probably not know the difference unless you compare it side by side with something like an amoled display. Some people have mentioned a yellow tint when you look at it from the bottom left or upper right corners at an angle. This seems normal as it shows a blueish tint from the two other corners.

Rattle?

I checked mine, and to hear this rattle I have to shake the phone vigorously next to my ear and be in a completely quite room to be able to hear it, it doesn't rattle at all if you just grab or move the phone.

Screen sensitivity?

It is indeed less sensitive, for me it sometimes fails to register taps on the home button, but that's about it, it doesn't bother me that much. It depends on whether or not you're used to very light touches.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mb3030:
I don't have any of those issues. My response is excellent and my screen has no tint at all. In fact my N4 has none of the issues being complained about.

I think a lot of the perceived issues are overblown. Typical for a device launch. The few unhappy people post and the majority are happy and don't bother.

It seems you have more motivation to go on a board if you're having an issue than if you don't. I experienced the same thing with the gnex launch (again flawless phone) and nexus 7 launch (flawless tablet).

I don't think I'm just lucky, I just think you're more likely to find those with issues posting.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henryy97:
Thanks I think I'm becoming more persuaded towards the SGS3 because I love AMOLED and I'm just too worried about this phone in general.. :rolleyes: I'm not sure what you mean by light touches though.. I usually handle my SGS2 with one hand so I kind of press densely but maybe it is not enough.. Is it hard enough, for instance, that if you press your thumb on your forearm, that your skin will bend down (not sure if thats a correct word) a bit? Or does it stay still? I would say my skin moves a bit following my thumb..
