[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] ksodhi:
I tried to Flash the new ICS official firmware and then tried to root the device.

My phone had a problem that it used to switch off while charging and then the problem persisted and it started happening everyonce in a while.

So i tried to flash it with the stock Rom and somehow managed to brick it (i think).

Now the problem is that it is not connecting via the usb cable, whenever i try to it switches off sometimes but when it doesnt and i try to flash a rom ODIN says" Can't open the serial(COM) port." and fails to flash recovery.tar:(

I tried KIES recovery too but its not detecting my phone. even if i try to connect it through odin, it doesn't . . only a yellow triangle comes as soon as i start the phone which turns BLUE after few seconds and doesnt go any further.

In the DM, it says

ODIN3 Download Mode

(protocol v2)

Reason : Force Key

Check signature : check

Custom binary doownload : Yes (1 count)

current binary : custom

waiting USB cable.

I have no clue how to sort this out. im really worried since i couldnt do anything to fix it. please help me!!:crying:

Try flashing another stock ICS. Do You have a cwm backup?

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
I dont think you have flashed stock firmware, if you have flashed it you should not get Yellow Triangle and your Binary count is increased, so you did some thing wrong ...

can you explain the steps which you have followed..

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] ksodhi:
See what i did was i first flashed the stock rom and then i tried flashing the stock ics rom which got stuck in odin and wasnt processing further. So i removed the cable and after that i tried flashing the stock gingerbread rom again and nothin was happening. it kept saying " Can't open the serial(COM) port." and fails to flash it. then being a noob i thought it'll be fine if i wipe my data and cache and then try to flash it again, but the problem was the same.

then i flashed a stock kernel and the binary increased to 2 now.

what does it mean btw?

First, its not belong to this General Forum. It must be in Q/A thread.

Also, download & install Latest Kies with USB drivers. Reboot your PC.

Then Connect your USB with the phone & PC & let it detect your Phone. after successfully installations of USB drivers, remove your phone.

RUN ODIN V3.07 as Administrator. select PDA & options as per installation procesure.

Go to Download mod of your Mobile, attach your Phone with USB. wait till your phone not detected in COM port(yellow/green color).

hit Start button & have patience. Let it flashed it ICS in your phone.

revert if any problem persist.

i flashed this stock rom to (gingerbread) : I9103ZSLE5_I9103OZSLE5_I9103ZSKK5_HOME.tar.md5 and then tried flashing the ICS ROM: GT-I9103_XEO_I9103XWLP2_I9103OXXLP2_I9103XXLQ3 via ODIN. and it got stuck in between so i unplugged the cable. since then the phone has had a problem with MD. now if i try to flash the Gingerbread ROM again, it just doesnt work.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arroba3:
Hello!

I am using the WanamLite v13 rom (LSJ Android 4.1.2), with Philz's kernel and I have trying to mount the /mnt/sdcard/external_sd to /mnt/extSdCard. Via ADB's shell with this command I was successful:

mount -o bind /mnt/extSdCard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd

But, when I reboot the phone the mount disappears. So, my question is, how can I make an Init.d script to mount those directories at every boot?

Thank you!;)

So I did a better battery stats little test the past couple days....

A couple little notes to add:

1: 3600 mah NON OEM battery is currently installed... Is this good life for this kind of battery? (It's brand new... if that makes a difference)

2: I did calibrate battery.

3: Brand new kernal was booted on... Wiped cache/system everything accordingly... Here is the rom I am on

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1849748&highlight=koodo+v3

I chose that because its close to stock and I heard it had good battery life (If you know of any that are better please tell me!)

4: Yes I am aware instagram is WAY higher then anything else... That is because I use my instagrams for about an hour a day (I get like 200-300 new followers a day... about 100 of them are bots that I have to individually block to get rid of so that takes some time)

So any tips as to what I can do to make my battery better would be awesome!

Thanks for the help in advance guys and i'll be glad to help out as much as possible!

Hi Guys,

I am planning to buy a phone for my sister. But not sure which phone to buy.

if the budget would have been high, i would have bought S3 with no confusion. i am using Note N7000.

But the whole problem is that this time budget is only 10k.

Only Galaxy Ace seems to be a good option but this phone is now almost 1.5yrs old.

Kindly suggest a good phone if not Galaxy Ace. Budget : 10k.

There are only three input options for me. 1. Automatic , 2. Unicode (70 characters) and the last one GSM (160 characters) , automatic doesn't help much.

I'd suggest doing a factory reset also.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franc38:
for contacts and texting, replace the stock apps (that indeed are a bit slow) by something else. I might suggest GO SMS pro for texting and exDialer for dialling and contacts. They are way faster (and on some points do sport more functionalities than the stock ones).

Now, for the redrawing of the desktop. The reason icons need to re-appear after you leave a game is that the phone did make more room for this game in memory by closing all the other apps, including the launcher. Therefore it needs to restart it totally when you quit the game. It take time.

Again, you may decide to go with an alternative launcher (I use Apex, but many others are available) in which you can control the staying in memory of the desktop or you might be able to force the TW launcher to stay in memory even if other apps are running. In anycase, doing that will be at the detriment of the game (or other memory hungry apps) performances (they will have less memory). Your decision!

These cases either have no reviews or bad reviews.

Some of them aren't fitted for AT&T, but for Sprint, no matter the title of the case.

This thread is misleading.

Also, they're expensive for not having a substantial amount of protection.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ferganer:
I wouldn't count on the Otterbox case. I have emailed CS asking whether it will be compatible with AT&T's E970. No response. They also have a few long outstanding questions about compatibility under Q&A unanswered.

Also, if you look at the pictures, you'll notice that the camera and flash in the image are definitely not E970's/
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Ilkinansr92:
that case is for Sprint
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:
I assure you, the goal isn't to be misleading. The goal is for new people (or just others browsing the web) to quickly find cases for our phone. We both know how rare they are. Instead of looking through pages of numerous threads, searching for links, why not put them in one place?

I have updated the OP to be a little less misleading.

silicon cases for LS970 fit E970

hi all-

FYI, flexible soft 'jelly' silicone cases (NOT hard TPU plastic) for the LS970 do fit the E970 just barely. I received a case from an eBay seller, Casewear today which turned out to be an LS970 case. The E970 must be just slightly thicker but with a little stretching the shell conforms to the E970 frame well-enough for daily use, and all the cutouts for the camera, speaker and other ports are fine too.

New links added for the TPU cases (Still not confirmed, mine should arrive very soon). It does look very promising from the pictures though. Also, I received an e-mail from Luxuary Cell Wireless. He confirms that the silicone cases are 100% for the AT&T E970 model.

Just got my TPU case from Cellularzones. It fits perfectly. The power button and volume rocker are covered but very easy to push. You can kinda see the notification light. I got the black/smoke version so it may be more noticeable with the clear version.

(See quote/op for links)

Thanks Joecascio2000! Would you be so kind as to post a picture of your phone with the case on it while the notification light is on? Can you comment on the quality of the case?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] freebee269:
i had that case also. was the first case i got. the power button isnt cut out and its snug against the power button so when in my pocket the screen would get turned on alot due to the case being so snug on the power button making it sensitive to any touch. didnt like that. that's why i went with a case with power button cut out.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] erwaso:
I have since bought a clear argyle case. Its snug and not difficult to press the volume and power buttons. It's super clear and you can see the power light as if it weren't there. Just hoping it doesn't yellow like other clear TPU cases. Probably will tho lol.

I am pretty disappointed that otterbox made a Sprint version, but no AT&T. I am currently using the Ventev Geocase. It is not the most stylish case, but it is a tight fit and has taken the brunt of a couple falls. For the current options out there, I would recommend it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mramos860:
I bought that case on amazon and returned it cause it made the buttons (power button) difficult to press and I didn't really give it time to get used to it. I would recommend the body glove case it's nice has cutouts for the Notification light, and works better than the Ventev.

I would also recommend the Diztronic case that fits slim and give decent protection. Right now I'm using this brick dual layer with a kick stand case I got off ebay for 9 dollars. It provides so much protection comparable to the otter box defender. But I had to file down the edges cause it was too tight and kept messing with the Zagg protector on the screen. I really would like a nice flip case with card slots in it.

Cases

I've been emailing most of the main case manufacturers about producing something for this phone. If everyone will take the time to go to speckproducts.com & click on the blue SUGGEST box on the left side of the page. Then in the box that says "Enter your idea", type in LG Optimus G & vote for them to make a case. Then comment to make 1 for the E970. I've had Speck cases & they're decent. I prefer CaseMate, but I can't get any answers outta them. Maybe if Speck makes some, others will follow.

The cruzerlite was the best for me.

I had the Diztronic at first, but just made the phone feel very blocky (though very protected at the same time). However, putting the cruzerlite on afterwards made it feel like I was holding the phone without a case. Much thinner and with rounded edges, can actually feel the response of the HW buttons, and it still provides some protection.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] yewai:
I thought AT&T store only sell Pink/Blue one?
